ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Utility officials announced plans Thursday to build a giant solar energy plant in the New Mexico desert in what is believed to be the larg-est such project in the nation.

The 92-megawatt solar thermal plant could produce enough electricity to power 74,000 homes, far exceeding the size of other solar plants in the United States. The largest solar thermal plant in operation now is about 70 megawatts, said Dave Knox, a spokesman for New Jersey-based NRG Energy, the company building and running the facility.

“This is larger than anything in existence in America so far today,” he said.

The plant was announced at a time when communities around the country are draw-ing up plans for solar and other alternative energy projects, especially with millions of dol-lars in stimulus money avail-able.

The plant — to be called the Suntower — will be built on 450 acres of private land near the Santa Teresa port of entry in far southern New Mexico near El Paso, Texas.

It will be similar in many respects to a steam plant, using the sun instead of fossil fuel to generate steam and produce electricity, said Michael Lieb-elson, president of NRG and chief of development for its low-carbon technologies.

It will look like a giant field of mirrors relatively low to the ground, interspersed with 180-foot towers topped by boilers. Motors on the mirrors will keep them aligned with the sun.

GENEVA (AP) — Swine flu is now formally a pandemic, a decla-ration by U.N. health officials that will speed vaccine production and spur government spending to com-bat the first global flu epidemic in 41 years.

Thursday’s announcement by the World Health Organization doesn’t mean the virus is any more lethal — only that its spread is considered unstoppable.

Since it was first detected in late April in Mexico and the United States, swine flu has reached 74 countries, infecting nearly 29,000 people. Most who catch the bug

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Looking out the 11th floor window of her law office, Jane Wiggins did a double take and grabbed her camera. The dark, undulating clouds hovering outside were unlike anything she’d seen before.

“It looked like Armaged-don,” said Wiggins, a paralegal and amateur photographer in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. “The shadows of the clouds, the lights and the darks, and the greenish-yellow backdrop. They seemed to change.”

They dissipated within 15 minutes, but the photo Wiggins captured in June 2006 intrigued — and stumped — a group of

dedicated weather watchers who now are pushing weather authorities to create a new cloud category, something that hasn’t been done since 1951.

Breaking into the cloud fam-ily would require surviving layers of skeptical international review. Still, Gavin Pretor-Pin-ney and his England-based Cloud Appreciation Society are determined to establish a new variety. They’ve given Wig-gins’ photo and similar pictures taken in different parts of the world to experts in England, and are discussing the subject fervently online.

WHO declares H1N1 pandemicSix confirmed swine flu cases in Cache CountyBy Charles Geracistaff writer

There are now six state laboratory-con-firmed cases of swine flu in Cache County, according to the Bear River Health Depart-ment.

The Herald Journal obtained the infor-mation Thursday — the same day the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic and the Utah Department of Health announced it was adjusting its testing guidelines for the virus.

Five of the six confirmed cases in the county correspond to males — two pediat-ric cases under the age of 12, two between the ages of 18 and 24, and the other

Camp offers solutions, interaction for kids with hearing loss By Devin Felixstaff writer

About 35 kids gathered with their parents at Utah State Univer-

sity this week for the Sound Beginnings Summer Camp, a program designed for children with hearing loss and their families.

The program is geared specifically toward families who choose to address their children’s hearing loss through technology and tactics to help their children hear and talk, said Todd Houston, an assis-tant professor of speech-lan-guage pathology at USU. The

camp concludes today.About 14 of the kids attend-

ing have hearing loss, and the rest are their siblings, Houston said. They were split into age

groups yesterday and partici-pated in activities throughout the day, including music activities, relay races and other games. The groups were guided by volunteers, many of whom are graduate students in audiology or speech-language pathology at USU.

While kids were involved in activities Thursday, par-ents attended seminars for information on gauging their children’s development, laws governing early interven-tion and special education and hearing technology. On Thursday night, everyone went horseback riding, Houston said.

“We wouldn’t have missed it,” said Nancy Guthrie, whose 9-month-old son, Alex, has severe hearing loss. “As a par-ent, I want to learn what the current research is for kids that are deaf or hard of hearing.”

Guthrie, who traveled to Logan from Provo, said she and her family found out about Alex’s hearing problem thanks to a hearing test given to all newborns.

“When you first find out the diagnosis, you go home and sob, but then you find out this whole world that’s available,” she said.

Valley briefs

HislopContinued from B1

Turns out it was also the last of those years.

Bob was in Logan in Febru-ary of this year for induction into USU’s Athletics Hall of Fame, Class of 2009. He was measured then in his public comments about what hap-pened to his program those two decades ago.

This week on the phone from his home in Las Vegas that reti-cense was gone, replaced with a touch of lingering anger and much confusion.

A quick review: Utah State’s campus wide budget challeng-

es of ’87 forced cuts all over campus.

“It wasn’t just athletics, it was everywhere,” said retired USU President Stan Cazier Thursday from his home in Logan. “As far as athletics, I left that up to Rod (Tueller) and others. I was sorry to see wrestling go. My nephew was the trainer for Bob Carlson. It surprised me when wrestling was cut, I thought it might be something else.”

That year funding was pulled back from women’s basketball and wrestling but wrestling held on, barely, for two more years with Mark Harris coaching.

Wrestling left the Aggie landscape completely in 1989.

Exactly 20 years ago.Carlson remembers attending

a full athletics staff meeting the spring of 1987 after his wrestlers competed so well in the nationals. When Direc-tor of Athletics Tueller stood to announce the dropping of women’s basketball and wres-tling in the meeting, Carlson said he came unhinged.

“I was completely blind-sided,” he said, “I had no clue it had been decided.”

Carlson describes his many attempts, new approaches and varied fund raising schemes, to keep the program alive. Tueller said this week he remembers considering each of Bob’s ideas, finding them all unworkable.

“It was not an enjoyable decision ,” said Tueller this week. “It’s not something I wanted to do, it had to be

done.”In 1987 it was USU’s Ath-

letic Council which approved the department’s budget, Tuel-ler said. “The shortfall was coming so they directed us (Rod and assistant director Kaye Hart) to come up with a proposal. And we did.”

Tueller said it was all about budgets and staying within the government’s Title IX guide-lines which dictated equality among men’s and women’s athletics. He remembers league leaders endorsing the move since losing women’s basketball and wrestling had little impact on them. And one more note from the former Aggie AD: several other colleges of that era were dropping wrestling.

With Aggie wrestling soon

to be extinct and perhaps his Associate AD’s job at USU not as attractive as it once was, Carlson left USU in July, 1987. He took an administrative job in college athletics in his native Pennsylvania, later retiring as a successful director of athletics at Clarion University.

SwineContinued from B1

raised the worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6 in response to the ongoing global spread of the H1N1 virus. A Phase 6 designation indicates a global pandemic is underway.

More than 70 countries are now reporting cases of human infection with the swine flu. This num-ber has been increasing over the past few weeks, but many of the cases reportedly had links to travel or were localized outbreaks without com-munity spread.

“The reason this is significant is because we don’t have immunity to it,” Davis said. “It’s a brand new illness to us ... but it only has about a 30 percent penetration into the population and that’s demonstrated by families and work places where it comes, but it doesn’t hit a 100 percent of the people.

“It hits about 30 per-cent, has an incubation period of about a week, has a course of about four to five days, and then you

feel better.”In the U.S., most peo-

ple who have become ill with the swine flu have recovered without requir-ing medical treatment.

However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) antici-pates there will be more cases, more hospitaliza-tions and more deaths associated with this pan-demic in the coming days and weeks. In addition, this virus could cause significant illness with associated hospitaliza-tions and deaths in the fall and winter during the U.S. influenza season.

“The good thing is there is a vaccine being developed right as we speak and it looks like it’s about to be released in Japan, so they’ll have some testing done,” Davis said. “So they’ve identified the virus, they’ve got the virus duplicating and they’ve got the appropriate machinery geared up to produce a vaccine for fall and winter this year.

“The bad news is you’ll probably have to get two flu shots because they won’t have time to work this into other flu shots.”

According to the Web site, www.cdc.gov, the

state of Utah has 461 confirmed and probable cases of the swine flu, and two related deaths.

“It’s a concern and most of the deaths occur in people who have underly-ing health issues,” said Dale Mildenberger, head athletic trainer at USU.

One source close to the USU football program wrote in an e-mail to The Herald Journal, “as a precaution they have sent people home if they could possibly be sick so as not to get anyone else sick. They have put in a disinfection policy/pro-gram in the weight room to prevent a sick person from touching equipment and passing any com-municable disease onto anyone else.”

Said Mildenberger: “We’re following the entire university protocol on this. We’re only one portion of the students who are affected with this. The university has asked professors to be tolerant with people not coming to class who are feeling ill. And we’re doing the same thing. ... It’s a concern and we’re addressing it at its proper level.”

Last Friday, USU issued a memo urging professors and students to take spe-

cial precautions to reduce the chance of spreading the H1N1 virus.

“Because part of the recommended treatment for patients with symp-toms of the influenza is social distancing, that is, staying away from oth-ers for the duration of symptoms, it is inevitable that it will affect the uni-versity and its teaching mission to some degree,” Davis said.

Davis said that should students acquire the H1N1 flu, they will be asked by their doctors to stay at home, take specif-ic medications and take other intervention steps to help slow the spread of the illness.

“We are serious about sending people home who are ill because that’s probably the one thing that does work,” he said.

If more cases continue to emerge in the days ahead, Davis said he will recommend that profes-sors consider making more of their course work accessible via Blackboard or other online venues.

Symptoms of the H1N1 are similar to the more common type A influ-enza: fever, chills, body aches, sore throat, runny nose and cough.

He played on the PGA Tour for the first time since a six-month suspension for off-course activities that brought unwanted publicity. Daly opened with eight straight pars and a birdie, but his putter failed him miserably. He followed with three straight bogeys for a 72.

“Probably the worst I’ve putted in five years,” Daly said, wearing

a neon green shirt that matched his argyle pants of green and yellow.

He offered little in how it felt to be playing before fans near his hometown in Arkansas, who fol-lowed him around the TPC South-wind and were treated to a round with few highlights, good or bad.

Gay has narrowly missed out on qualifying for the first two majors, although he has one chance left. Having won at Hilton Head last month, a victory this week would get him into the U.S. Open. He led by one shot over Jimmy Walker.

Mickelson openly shared his emo-

tions and fears before the tournament. He was more guarded after his round Thursday, sticking mainly to his golf and the tropical vacation after the U.S. Open a week before Amy has surgery and begins treatment.

“It wasn’t a great round, but it was a good start,” Mickelson said. “It was fun to play a little bit.”

He was particularly pleased with his group — three-time major win-ner Padraig Harrington and Camer-on Beckman. They chatted between shots, although his talk with Har-rington before the round might have been the most meaningful.

Magic disappear even better.“It ranks right up there

at the top,” he said. “You know, even greater than 0.4 because I feel like we’re as close as possible to what our end goal is.”

It was the first time since 1984, when Magic Johnson’s Lakers and Larry Bird’s Celtics hooked up, that two games in a finals have gone to overtime.

When the clock expired, Bryant, trying to win his first champion-ship without Shaquille O’Neal, looked at Tiger Woods and wiped sweat from his brow in relief. Fisher, who has bailed out the Lakers in plenty of big games before, was hugged by every one of his teammates.

He had missed his first five 3s and promised teammate Pau Gasol he wouldn’t miss again.

“He’s been there before,” Bryant said. “He has been there and done that.

“He just has supreme confidence and I think those shots at the end of the game are actually easier for him than the other ones.”

The Lakers, who improved to 7-0 following a loss in the postseason, can wrap up their first title since 2002 on Sun-day night in Game 5.

of McCammon, Idaho. “It’s kind of miserable, but it’s part of the game, I guess.”

Bull rider Dustin Tib-bits wasn’t thrilled with the conditions.

“I don’t like muddy arenas at all,” Tibbits said. “It’s hard to get away from (the bulls), it’s not fun at all. I don’t like it. ... I looked up the weather and saw it was raining, and I really didn’t want to come.

“But I need money.”He’s well on his way to

winning some cash.Tibbits, of Pahrump,

Nev., recorded a 78-point ride — the best of the night — aboard Ram Tuff.

“That bull was good,” said Tibbits, who current-ly ranks first in his event in the Wilderness Circuit Standings. “... I’ve been drawing good; drawing bulls like that is good.”

Tibbits was just one of four bull riders — out of 12 — to turn in qualify-ing rides.

The steer wrestlers had just about the same amount of success.

The first two cowboys didn’t even drop from their horses. Trevor Car-son, of American Fork, was the first participant to get his steer down. How-ever, he had a hard time wrestling his steer to the ground and was eventually clocked in at 38.6 seconds

— he was given a 10-sec-ond penalty for breaking the rope barrier — which is good enough for second place at this point.

Tom Lewis, of Lehi, turned in an impressive time of 6.9 seconds and is the front-runner heading into the final two days of the rodeo.

Just like any other event Thursday, steer wrestling proved difficult in the wet conditions.

“When you first get here and you see all the mud and the water, it gets you a little bit,” said Lewis, who has been with his horse, Cody, for three years now. “But you just kind of have to adjust; we changed the game plan.”

Lewis was not worried about his performance after watching Tremonton’s Bay-lor Roche and Eagle Moun-tain’s Bryan Hooley fail to drop from their horses.

“We go for the money and the fans and every-thing, so we’re here to compete,” he said. “We had to see the steer start just a little more and they don’t run as hard in the mud, so just adjust a little bit and go get him.”

Will 6.9 seconds hold up for Lewis?

“I don’t know,” said Lewis, who currently ranks ninth in the Wil-derness Circuit. “If the conditions were right, no. But with the mud and the whole thing, it changes things a little bit. ... It’s hard to know.

“I hope it does.”Lewis bought Cody

and made him into a steer wrestling horse — he was a team roping horse before that.

“He treats us really good,” said Lewis, whose father is his hazer. “Good to haul, good to travel around, and they become part of the family.”

Bareback rider Moe Heaton, of Paradise, was the lone contestant from the valley to compete on Thursday night.

He needed just one word to sum up his performance.

“Horrible,” said Hea-ton, who scored 51 on No Angel. “Those are the worst kind of horses to get on. They don’t buck the same ever, just trash you.”

It seemed as if No Angel was going to buck off Heaton, who was being thrown all over.

“That’s what I mean, they’re out of line,” Hea-ton said. “There’s nothing you can do on them but look stupid.”

Heaton, who ranks eighth in the Wilderness Circuit, will look for a bet-ter ride Saturday when he competes in the Days of the Old West Rodeo in Delta.

The GAWR continues tonight and Saturday.

Lewis will be in Delta tonight and Cortez, Colo., on Saturday for the Ute Mountain Roundup, but considers Logan a favor-ite stop of his.

“We love it,” Lewis said. “... I just appreciate the hospitality in Logan. They’ve always been good fans and the people, they’ve always been nice.”

points, eight assists and seven rebounds. Trevor Ariza and Gasol each had 16 for Los Angeles, which came back from a 12-point halftime deficit. Ariza had 13 of the Lakers’ 30 points in the third quarter.

Unless they can force a Game 6, the Magic will remember this as another finals game that got away.

Dwight Howard was magnificent everywhere but at the free-throw line. Orlando’s superman of a center had 16 points, 21 rebounds and a finals-record nine blocks. But he made just 6 of 14 foul shots, and it was his two crucial misses with 11.1 seconds to go in regulation that doomed the Magic.

Orlando missed 15 free throws.

“I just missed them,” Howard said. “I’ve been working on my free throws. They just weren’t

falling tonight.”After Howard’s late

misses, Fisher pulled up and without hesitating dropped a 3-pointer over Orlando’s Jameer Nelson with 4.6 seconds left to tie it 87-87. The shot stunned the Magic’s maniacal crowd, which was hoping the home team could win its second straight finals game after dropping its first six.

“I just sensed that was the dagger,” Fisher said. “That was the one that would put us in a position to close out the game even though the game wasn’t over.”

In NBA finals history, only two players have made more 3s than Fish-er’s 40: Robert Horry (56) and Michael Jordan (42).

“It’s character,” Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. “We’ve always said the character has got to be in players if they are going to be great players.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — James von Brunn carried a lifetime of hatred and an aging rifle to the entrance of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, author-ities say, and was met with a simple act of kindness: a security guard opening the door for him.

Critically injured in a hospital bed Thursday, the 88-year-old white suprema-cist was charged with murdering Steven T. Johns, the black guard. Accord-ing to interviews with family, friends and civil rights groups, von Brunn spent decades spewing hate toward Jews and blacks — a hatred that was nearing a crescendo in the weeks before the shooting.

At least one acquaintance said he suspected that von Brunn was preparing for a violent end.

Von Brunn had talked about giving up “precious things” — even the com-puter from which he spread his angry diatribes against Jews, interracial dating and the government, said fellow

white supremacist John de Nugent.

“He said he had gone offline,” said de Nugent, who last spoke to von Brunn on the phone a few weeks ago.

De Nugent said von Brunn complained that his Social Security benefits had been reduced, and he suspected that his white supremacist views were the reason.

“He was unhappy with his living situation,” de Nugent said.

Von Brunn lived in a condo in Annapolis, Md., with his 32-year-old son, Erik von Brunn, and his son’s fiancee, according to charging documents. The couple charged him $400 a month and when he moved in two years ago, he brought two rifles with him, the fiancee, Brandy Teel, told FBI agents. No one answered the door Thurs-day at their condo.

When next-door neigh-bor Harold Olynnger, 82, invited von Brunn over for a drink about three months

ago, it didn’t go well.Von Brunn sipped on

a vodka tonic and talked about how he believed the media paid too much attention to the Holocaust, Olynnger said.

On his Web site, von Brunn said he is a descendant of German immigrants who became convinced Jews controlled the government.

He took his rants on May 29 to the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis to complain about increased minority enrollment — which will be about 35 percent for the Class of 2013. He walked into the administration build-ing and wanted a meeting with academy officials,

said spokesman Cmdr. Joe Carpenter.

Von Brunn, who was a Navy officer during World War II, never got the meeting and was not considered a safety threat, Carpenter said. However, staff quickly notified Naval investigators because of “the extreme views he expressed regarding minor-ities,” Carpenter said.

“He made no threats,” Carpenter said.

Von Brunn boasted of having spent a year in jail for fighting a sheriff’s dep-uty in Maryland in 1968 and, a quarter-century later, of serving prison time for trying to kidnap members of the Federal Reserve board.

After he got out, he became a regular in white supremacist circles and soon had his own file with watch groups such as the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defa-mation League. He wrote an anti-Semitic text and maintained his conspiracy theories on the Web site.

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Thousands of Americans who have generally kept up with their mortgages are still in danger of losing their homes because they made a fateful trade-off in this shaky economy — they let their homeowner association dues slide.

Many homeowners are learn-ing to their surprise that condo and neighborhood associations that oversee security patrols, mow lawns, plant flowers and clean the community swim-ming pool may have the right

to foreclose when dues aren’t paid. That right is often written into the purchase agreement signed by the homeowner.

Among those who have been threatened with foreclosure is Lacey Pilat, who lost her job catering lavish corporate parties and nearly lost her two-story house in this Dallas suburb.

“Basically, our landscaper was foreclosing on the house,” said Steve Pilat, her husband. “That’s the way we looked at it.”

These foreclosure actions

do not necessarily pit neigh-bor against neighbor. Many homeowner associations have turned the job of collecting member dues over to outside management companies. And to them, it’s strictly business, not personal.

Homeowner association boards and their management companies defend the practice, saying maintaining the neigh-borhood preserves everyone’s property values.

“We have compassion for those folks. At the same time,

we feel for the rest of the hom-eowners who are paying their dues,” said Andrew Schlegel, executive vice president for Merit Property Management, which manages more than 140,000 California homes in community associations.

In California, associations can foreclose only after 12 months of missed fees or $1,800 in back dues.

“No one wants to do this,” Schlegel said. “It’s only com-ing up when people are com-pletely obstinate about it.”

Gauging the number of foreclosures nationwide by homeowner association is difficult. But in Texas, fore-closure attempts initiated by homeowner associations in 19 counties are up 30 percent from two years ago, according to Dallas-based Foreclosure List-ing Services.

In the San Antonio area alone, foreclosure actions by homeowner associations jumped to 170 in April from 21 in April 2008, according to RexReport.com.

Former USU professor sentenced

By Matthew K. Jensenstaff writer

Former Utah State Univer-sity professor Tom C. Peter-son’s defense attorney told a municipal judge Thursday his client “knew he made a big mistake.”

Peterson was charged with misdemeanor lewdness in Feb-ruary after university police investigated a report of a lewd act in a school steam room. The incident was brought to

light by a male witness.Peterson pleaded no contest

to the charge in May and on Thursday was sentenced to pay a $587 fine and received 12 months probation.

Logan City Justice Court Judge Cheryl A. Russell also imposed a 180-day jail term but suspended that sentence entirely. Peterson was also ordered to not be on or near USU property with the excep-tion of occasional consultation meetings.

Russell stressed to the for-mer professor that he was not allowed inside the school’s HPER (health, physical educa-tion and recreation) facility.

“There’s no question Tom made a big mistake,” said defense attorney Shannon Demler. “That being said, he’s

never had any record and is a valued member in our com-munity.”

Demler said Peterson con-tributed to the educational quality of USU, served on community and academic boards and “has never had any problems.”

He added, “He’s paid a big price for the situation he’s found himself in. He’s lost his employment and his standing at the university he worked years and years to obtain.”

Russell said her sentence wasn’t meant to be “retaliato-ry,” but was rather the “conse-quence that just happens from living in society.”

Russell told Peterson to enroll in private counsel-ing services and scheduled a probation status hearing for

March of 2010.USU spokesman John DeV-

ilbiss said Peterson qualified and was accepted for early retirement.

Peterson stepped down from his teaching responsibili-ties after Feb. 25, the day the lewdness citation was issued.

During the spring, USU offered several voluntary sepa-ration options in an effort to reduce its workforce due to budget cuts.

At the time of the incident, Peterson was teaching a course titled Creative Arts with 419 students enrolled.

Peterson gets fine, probation for lewdness in steam room

By Kim Burgessstaff writer

On Thursday, Cooper Tire & Rubber company provided comments on a recent appeals court ruling stating that the company must turn over documents on their manu-facturing processes as part of a lawsuit.

Cooper had appealed to the 10th Circuit Court after the families of Utah State University’s van crash victims requested the information as part of their case, which claims Cooper’s tires are defec-tive. In all, nine people died in the 2005 accident near Tremonton, which occurred after one of the vehicle’s tires blew out.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Bush administration officials pushed aside the National Park Service and sought to lease public lands for drilling on the borders of Utah’s most famous redrock parks during their final days in power, a special report to Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar says.

Salazar was condemned by the oil industry for scrapping 77 of the leases weeks after taking office, but all of the drilling parcels had already been delayed by a federal lawsuit that still hasn’t been resolved.

Salazar defended his deci-sion in a telephone interview Thursday, saying that leasing parcels on or near borders of national parks is highly unusual.

“At the end of the day, the Bush administration attempted to get as much public land leased for oil and gas develop-ment as they possibly could,” Salazar said. “That kind of rush to a result short-circuited processes that are in place to protect our most precious land-scapes.”

BLM officials who made the leasing decisions refused com-ment Thursday.

Salazar’s actions provoked a political battle that held up the Senate’s confirmation of his chief deputy, David Hayes, who found serious flaws in the awarding of oil and gas leases on a visit to Utah.

Hayes said the Bureau of Land Management — the agency responsible for leasing public lands for energy devel-opment — set out to lease drilling parcels on the borders of Arches National Park with-

out notifying the Park Service, violating a long-standing pact.

The BLM also moved to lease other parcels close to Canyonlands National Park and Dinosaur National Monu-ment, and to open drilling around artifact-rich Nine Mile Canyon and along the high cliffs of whitewater sections of the wild Green River.

Cordell Roy, the chief Park Service administrator in Utah, said the BLM didn’t consult the agency on an initial auction list that included parcels near the parks and monument.

“I was shocked and disap-pointed. I was really surprised by that,” Roy said.

On all previous lease sales, the BLM would notify the Park Service ahead of the pub-lic and would send computer mapping files for Park Service officials to review, Roy said. The notifications would come “like clockwork,” he said.

The BLM backed off under pressure from the Park Service and removed parcels from the December auction list. But Hayes’ report found it still auctioned 47 lease parcels that were too close to Arches and Canyonlands parks or wild areas without regard for spoil-ing views or fouling the air with drilling emissions.

“Only when the light of pub-lic scrutiny was shed on the situation did they reconsider some of the most problematic leases,” Salazar said.

Hayes said the remaining 30 leases that Salazar rescinded in February could go up for sale again because they are in or next to existing oil and gas

Report: Drilling too close to Utah parks

USU recognized for records transparency

Tire co. responds to court decision

By Kim Burgessstaff writer

Utah State University was recognized for openness with its records in a recent study con-ducted by an Ohio newspaper.

The Columbus Dispatch spent six months testing 119 public universities’ responses to requests for information from the schools’ athletics depart-ments.

According to the newspaper, the requested documents cov-ered “airplane flight manifests for football-team travel to road games; lists of people designated to receive athletes’ complimenta-ry admission to football games; football players’ summer-employment documents; and reports of NCAA violations.”

USU supplied all of the docu-ments they were asked to pro-vide, in contrast to most of the schools.

The Columbus Dispatch reported that only 69 schools gave any information to the paper. Of those, roughly half censored documents by black-ing out data or failed to provide all of the requested documents. These universities cited the Fam-ily Educational Rights and Pri-vacy Act as justification for their response. FERPA is a federal law that is designed to protect the privacy of academic records like grades or disciplinary mat-ters.

USU general counsel Craig Simper, who handles the school’s records requests, said he is pleased with the recognition from The Columbus Dispatch, but added that he has some con-cerns about the study.

Simper explained that FERPA has many gray areas because it

does not provide strict guidelines on which records to release. Instead it only specifically out-lines which records should not be released. As a result, univer-sity administrators must try to maintain student privacy while also complying with the law, Simper said.

“It’s a balancing game of protecting the privacy,” Simper explained. “There is a wide range of interpretations.”

He added that it can be unfair to compare schools’ responses to records requests, citing such a comparison in a Salt Lake Tribune article that said the University of Utah was among the worst performers in the Ohio study while praising USU.

“I do think that was a very unfortunate comparison — com-paring University of Utah with Utah State — because as state-run institutions we tend to do things very much the same way,” Simper said. “I wouldn’t say based on what was presented (in the Salt Lake Tribune) that we weren’t consistent. It’s just that (the UofU) had different infor-mation available than we did. I’d have to say that I seriously doubt that they were fairy depicted (in the Salt Lake Tribune). I know the attorneys there and I know how they do it.”

However, in The Columbus Dispatch, the former senator who drafted FERPA said that the law was not intended to justify the kind of withholding done by the University of Utah.

“Things have gone wild,” James L. Buckley told the Dis-patch. “These are ridiculous extensions (of FERPA). One likes to think common sense would come into play. Clearly, these days, it isn’t true.”

Higher-elevation road gates shut

Due to extremely wet weather conditions on the Logan Ranger District, the high-elevation road gates will remain closed for another week.

The following roads will remain closed to all motor-ized travel: Twin Creeks, West Hodges/Forestry Camp, Cowley Canyon/Herd Hollow, Temple Fork/Pole Line above the sec-ond gate and before the mud flat, and Dip Hollow.

The district plans to open these gates by June 19. It asks those traveling to avoid driving on routes that are muddy. Visi-tors should be aware of the tran-sition from the winter travel map to the summer travel map on June 18, after which cross-coun-try snowmobile use is prohibited.

Museum lectureon flags, symbols

Utah State University’s Muse-um of Anthropology will hold a discussion of flags and symbols and how they are used in differ-ent cultures.

The lecture is at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday and is led by museum docent Melissa Bar-fuss. This event also includes an activity for kids where they can design and assemble their own flags.

The museum is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. It is located in Old Main building, Room 252. Free parking is available south of the building. For more informa-tion, call at 797-7545 or e-mail at anthro.museum@usu.edu.

Logan to removebill drop boxes

Forget dropping off city util-ity payments at local grocery stores.

On July 1, Logan is taking out the bill drop boxes currently set up at Macey’s, Smith’s Food and Drug and Lee’s Marketplace.

City Treasurer Tyson Grif-fin says the change is meant to save money; instead of city workers having to collect and sort the dropped-off payments, a third party hired by the city will handle the payments that will instead be mailed in or made on the city’s Web site.

“We are trying to provide ser-vice more efficiently,” Griffin said.

Griffin said about 30-40 pay-ments are dropped in the boxes each day. He said exactly how much money the city will save isn’t clear but should equal about 20 hours per week in labor.

About 80 payments per day are submitted through the Logan’s Web site, Griffin said. The online payment system started in January 2008. For more information, call the city utility billing department at 716-9195.

Man looking for help pulling woad

A Logan resident is trying to organize valleywide action to remove much of the Dyer’s woad growing throughout the area.

Davy McClay says residents of the valley can contact him to mobilize efforts to pull the yel-low plant out of the ground. He will provide official bags to those interested in helping to remove the plant.

Dyer’s woad is an aggres-sive, noxious weed that inhibits growth of other plants nearby. It has established itself across much of the Western U.S.

Now is an ideal time to pull the weed out of the ground, McClay said, as the wet ground will allow for easier removal. He cautioned those who go to remove it not to confuse it with mustard plants, which may look similar.

The county’s weed depart-ment held a “Bag O’ Woad” event in May.

McClay said he knows of sev-eral areas in the valley that have seen a Dyer’s woad infesta-tion, including the areas around Logan’s sewer facility and land-fill, near the roads in Sardine Canyon and the vacant lot at 200 North and 1000 West.

Should anyone wish to help in McClay’s efforts, they can e-mail him at davy.mcclay@usu.edu or call him at home at 753-2555.

Garth off markabout canyon

To the editor: I can understand Garth Barker’s frustration in his col-umn “Providence Canyon users blindsided by restrictions” (June 4, 2009). However, I find it a little misdirected. For several months, I’ve been the contact person for Friends of Providence Canyon and have learned much about the canyon. The first thing is the seriousness of the activities occurring in the canyon, the impacts they have on every-body and the urgent need to address them. The barriers that Garth seems to be upset about are part of a restoration effort by the Logan Ranger District to curb the destruction of the canyon’s watershed and natural systems. The effort is an important step to get a handle on the present downward spiral of the can-yon’s health. I am convinced that the Logan Ranger District isn’t going to “close” the canyon to motorized travel. Not snowmo-biles in the winter, not ATVs on the authorized route in the sum-mer and not the rock-crawlers in and above the quarry. If you are interested in get-ting involved with our efforts to preserve the beauty of the canyon for all to enjoy, send me an e-mail at droghaar@gmail.com.

Don’t attackan ally

To the editor: I have lived in Cache Val-ley for years, and for years I have read The Herald Journal. I appreciate those that voice their opinions in the Opinion section of the paper, but there is one thing that I am abso-lutely tired of. Why can’t we

respect the right of a person to express their opinion without being ridiculed. There have always been significant divi-sions over political issues, this we know. Unfortunately, there was recently a lot of social and political strife over Proposition 8 in California. I understand that homosexuals feel that they do not have the rights they deserve, and in many, and most cases, they don’t. If they want to have a civil union, joint insurance benefits, and the right to share property and designate an heir, so be it. It’s what I have, so I can give it to them, too. However, it is hard for me to maintain this attitude when my beliefs, my ideals and my religious institution come under public fire by the very people that I support giving rights to. During the election on the Public Forum, when asked to define marriage, Barack Obama said that it was between a man and a woman, however, he was not opposed to a civil union. This is how I feel, and how many others feel. To those affected by it, please do not assume that those of us who are heterosexual are all out to get you. At least you have the right to protest. If I went outside with a sign reading “Happy to be Hetero” I would be burned at the stake. My college at USU is looking at setting aside a large sum of money for schol-arships specifically for homo-sexuals. I receive no special aid for being a white middle class male. We all have challenges; the important thing is that we all have strengths as well, and if we can use these strengths to better our surroundings, we can create a better world together, but as long as we ridicule and close our minds toward another person’s attitude, we will never understand why they feel that way and we will be expecting tolerance from someone that we ourselves refuse to tolerate.

Logan Municipal Coun-cilwoman Tami Pyfer e-mailed The Herald Journal the follow-ing snippet from Logan’s ses-quicentennial celebration. It’s the last stanza of an old poem shared by historian Ken God-frey in his talk at last week’s event. The poem, which warns of the perils of politics, was written following the 1931 Logan mayor’s race. We don’t know why it struck a chord with Pyfer, but it’s worth noting that she announced recently she won’t seek re-elec-tion.

Arrest that gossip! If you follow local police calls on the Internet, you know some of them can be pretty interesting. Here’s one that got our attention this week: “Officer Olsen contacted the complainant of a citizen assist. The complainant stated her neighbor was spreading rumors about her and wanted officers to arrest her. The offi-cer explained the beauty of the Constitution and explained that

it wouldn’t allow the officer to arrest her neighbor. The inci-dent was cleared.”

———Cache connection

Amy Mickelson, the wife of golfing great Phil Mickelson, has drawn an outpouring of sympathy from people around the world after it was learned recently that she has breast cancer. Members of Amy’s extended family live in Cache Valley, and Herald Journal readers familiar with the family have phoned the newspaper to ask why this hasn’t been noted in articles about the Mickelsons. The Herald Journal did con-tact the local family some years ago about a possible news story on Amy’s and Phil’s occasional trips here with their children, but the family let it be known they would prefer to retain their privacy. That’s perfectly understand-able. We just want well-mean-ing readers to know why this Cache Valley connection has remained quiet from this end — and to wish the Mickelsons the best in these difficult times.

Deaths demonstrate needfor ATV safety regulationsBy Ray Ring

At least 24 people have been killed in all-terrain-vehi-cle accidents in the West since mid-March, the onset of warm riding weather. A 9-year-old girl in Arizona was among them. So were a 10-year-old boy in California, an off-duty sheriff’s deputy in Utah, and 16-year-old girls in Wyoming and Ari-zona. One especially noticeable ATV wreck occurred in Utah on April 18: A likable ex-Congressman, Bill Orton, drove his ATV over a drop-off, crashed and died in the famous Little Sahara dunes playground. He was 60 years old, left behind a wife and two kids, and the Salt Lake Tribune called it a great loss for his state. Also, a man lost his right hand, and a 6-year-old boy and a 9-year-old boy suffered seri-ous nonfatal injuries in other Western ATV wrecks in the same two-month period. It’s just the latest evidence of how the sport needs safety regulations and a consistently responsible leadership. Often the accident victims are kids. Frequently, the victims are not wearing helmets. And ATV design is another factor: the vehicle’s abundance of horse-power and the risk of rollovers. Yet the industry — manufac-turers and dealers — and the sport’s leaders resist tougher state laws and regulations to improve safety. That includes basic measures, such as requir-ing helmets for all ATV drivers and a reasonable minimum age for driving ATVs. Instead, they often glam-orize ATVs with event pro-motions, news stories, and gung-ho ads that guarantee riding thrills. The ATV magazines, for instance, are filled with “ready-to-race … hard-riding” machines whose brand names encourage reck-lessness: the Polaris Outlaw, Kawasaki’s Brute Force, Can-

Am’s Renegade. The magazines show people throttling ATVs up sand dunes, through creeks, into deep mud and over rocks, or twisting along forest and desert trails. Often they’re “pulling wheel-ies” — accelerating with such force that the front wheels pop off the ground. Or they’re “airing it out” (becoming com-pletely airborne) coming down for “big hits” (hard landings). “Give Your Adrenaline a Reason to Secrete Itself … Mayhem Awaits,” headlines shout in a full-page ad for a Kawasaki 750 Teryx. There’s a big photo of the Teryx churning sand, and more headlines about “digital fuel injection” and a “speed-tuned suspension.” Small type at the bottom of the ad says “Warning: The Teryx can be hazardous to operate … Always wear (a) helmet … Avoid excessive speeds and stunt driving. Be extra careful on difficult terrain.” Of course, no one wants accidents. But most Western states let ATVers do their thing with almost no regulations at all. Only a few even set a mini-mum age for drivers. Utah is one, probably making an effort to address this bloody statistic: At least 56 kids — children under the age of 16 — have died in ATV wrecks in Utah since 1982, according to a fed-eral ATV safety Web site. But Utah’s age limit for driving in the wild country remains aston-ishingly weak: “No one under 8 may operate an ATV on pub-lic lands.” In a typical safety battle, Nevada’s Legislature just passed a measure requiring all Nevada ATVs to be licensed with the state. Reckless driv-ers could be tracked down if witnesses got their license numbers. But Nevada Gov. Jim Gibbons vetoed the licensing requirement, saying he didn’t like the modest fee of maybe $20 or $30 per vehicle. The Nevada Legislature, however, might muster enough support

to override that veto. Laws and regulations aside, we need to adjust the overall image of ATVs to make the dangers clearer. That includes everyone who can play a role — those of us who are directly involved as well as those on the sidelines, such as journal-ists and politicians. All too often, families — parents, teens and kids — don’t understand the danger until it’s too late. Near New River, Ariz., on May 20, three teenagers were driving around on two ATVs. The Arizona Republic reports that the ATVs were “following each other … at high speeds (45 to 50 mph)” when one crashed into the other. A 16-year-old girl, Taylor Wisdom, was thrown off with so much force that her helmet came off. She suffered major head trauma and died while being airlifted to a hospital. In the turmoil and mourning after her death, dozens of her friends commented on a Web site, sharing stories about how she’d been active in soccer and dance at her high school. They recalled how she was known for her friendly smile. And one remembered: “SHE LOVED TO RIDE!!!”——————————————Ray Ring is a contributor to Writ-ers on the Range, a service of High Country News (hcn.org).

This week's blogger challenge:

Let’s talk about ATVs

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Trash collectors in San Francisco will soon be doing more than just gathering garbage: They’ll be keeping an eye out for people who toss food scraps out with their rubbish.

San Francisco this week passed a mandatory composting law that is believed to be the strict-est such ordinance in the nation. Residents will be required to have three color-coded trash bins, including one for recy-cling, one for trash and a new one for compost — everything from banana peels to coffee grounds.

The law makes San Francisco the leader yet again in environmen-tally friendly measures, following up on other green initiatives such as banning plastic bags at supermarkets.

Food scraps sent to a landfill decompose fast and turn into methane gas, a potent greenhouse gas. Under the new sys-tem, collected scraps will be turned into compost that helps area farms and vineyards flourish. The city eventually wants to eliminate waste at land-fills by 2020.

Chris Peck, the state’s Integrated Waste Man-agement Board spokes-man, said he wasn’t aware of an ordinance as tough as San Francisco’s. Many cities, includ-ing Pittsburgh and San Diego, require residents to recycle yard waste but not food scraps. Seattle requires households to put scraps in the compost bin or have a compost-ing system, but those

who don’t comply aren’t fined.

“The city has been progressive, and they’ve been leaders and it appears that they’re stepping out of the pack again,” he said.

San Francisco officials said they aren’t look-ing to punish violators harshly.

Waste collectors will not pick through any-one’s garbage, said Rob-ert Reed, a spokesman for Sunset Scavenger Co., which handles the city’s recyclables. If the wrong kind of materials are noticed while a bin is being emptied, work-ers will leave what Reed called “a love note,” to let customers know they are not with the program.

“We’re not going to lock you up in jail if you don’t compost,” said Nathan Ballard, a spokes-man for Mayor Gavin Newsom who proposed

the measure that passed Tuesday. “We’re going to make it as easy as pos-sible for San Franciscans to learn how to compost.”

A moratorium on imposing fines will end in 2010, after which repeat offenders like individuals and small businesses generating less than a cubic yard of refuse a week face fines of up to $100.

Businesses that don’t

provide the proper con-tainers face a $500 fine.

Sean Elsbernd, one of the two supervisors who opposed the proposition that passed 9-2, said the measure was “over-the-top” and that calls to his office Wednesday were critical of the new law.

“This is just going to aggravate and aggrieve homeowners who are doing their best,” said Elsbernd.

WASHINGTON (AP) — “Miracles still hap-pen,” declared Sen. Edward Kennedy. “The United States Senate has finally said ‘no’ to Big Tobacco.”

The Senate struck a historic blow against smoking in America Thursday, voting over-whelmingly for legisla-tion Kennedy has been promoting for years. It would give the Food and Drug Administration new power to limit nicotine in the cigarettes that kill nearly a half-million people a year, to drasti-cally curtail ads that glo-rify tobacco and to ban flavored products aimed at spreading the habit to young people.

The Massachusetts Democrat is fighting brain cancer and wasn’t on hand when the Senate voted. His exultant state-ment was released by his office.

“He must be back in Massachusetts smiling at this great, great victory,” said Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin of Illinois.

President Barack Obama, who has spoken of his own struggle to

quit smoking, said he was eager to sign the legislation after minor differences with a House version are worked out — and the House planned a vote for today. Cigarette foes said the measure would not only

cut deaths but reduce the $100 billion in annual health care costs linked to tobacco.

Fierce opposition by the industry and tobacco-state lawmakers had prevented passage for years, along with veto threats by the George W. Bush White House. In the end, the nation’s big-gest tobacco company supported the measure, though rivals suggested that was because it could lock in Philip Morris’ share of the market.

Cigarette smoking kills about 400,000 people in the United States every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion. About 45 million U.S. adults are smokers, though the prevalence has fallen since the U.S. surgeon general’s warn-ing 45 years ago that tobacco causes lung cancer.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Undertaking a new and aggressive push to enact health reform this year, President Barack Obama bluntly challenged Republican critics on Thursday to put forward their own plan to expand coverage to the uninsured and help strug-gling families afford care.

“To those who criticize our efforts, I ask them, ‘What’s the alternative?’” Obama said at a town hall-style meeting, sur-rounded by supportive citizens in the heartland.

“What else do we say to all those families who spend more on health care than on housing or on food? What do we tell those businesses that are choosing between clos-ing their doors and letting their workers go?”

A dispute over Obama’s desire to create a new government-sponsored

health plan to compete with private insurers is forming a major obstacle to bipartisan consensus on a sweeping overhaul of the nation’s health care system. So the president is stepping up his person-al efforts, a key part of which is selling his ideas directly to Americans, in hopes they will pres-sure lawmakers directly and create momentum through a groundswell of public support.

He described his critics as naysayers.

“I know there are some who believe that reform is too expensive, but I can assure you that doing nothing will cost us far more in the coming years,” Obama said. “Our deficits will be higher. Our premiums will go up. Our wages will be lower, our jobs will be fewer, and our businesses will suffer.”

“Cooper Tire respect-fully disagrees with the ruling,” said Curtis Schneekloth, director of investor relations at the Ohio-based company. “We will abide by this pre-trial ruling and com-ply fully with our discov-ery obligations. While we agree that any loss of life is tragic, we look forward to defending the integrity of our product

in the upcoming trial.” Schneekloth declined

to comment on the law-suit in general but added that the company hopes “people remember the importance of checking their tires.”

CloudContinued from A1

“They (the clouds) were the first ones that I noted of this type and I was unsure which category to put them under,” said Pre-tor-Pinney, author of “The Cloudspotter’s Guide.” “When we put pictures up online we list the cat-egory, and I wasn’t sure how to categorize it.”

Some scientists are skeptical. They argue that researchers who have long watched the sky haven’t seen anything dis-tinctly new for decades.

There are three main groups of clouds: cumu-lous, cirrus and stratus. Each has various sub-classifications built on other details of the forma-tion.

Brant Foote, a longtime

scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., said the clouds photographed by Wiggins already fit into the exist-ing cumulous classifica-tion.

But Pretor-Pinney, who never studied meteorol-ogy, believes the clouds merit their own cumulus sub-classification. He proposes they be called altocumulus undulatus asperatus. The last word — Latin for roughen or agitate — is a reference to the clouds’ undulating surface.

“Not necessarily gentle or steady, but quite vio-lent-looking, turbulent, almost twisted in its appearance,” he said.

The group has compiled several photographs docu-menting the formations from the billowy, rolling clouds shot by Wiggins in Iowa to ones from New

Zealand that were much more menacing, hanging lava-like in the sky.

Foote said it would be “very unusual” for such a formation to be recog-nized as a new variety of cloud.

“People have been looking at clouds for hundreds of years and the general cloud clas-sification is well defined,” Foote said. “It’s not as if someone discovered a new plant in the Amazon. It’s what you’ve seen every day. There was no atmospheric condition that caused a new kind of cloud to form.”

Pretor-Pinney is working with the Royal Meteorological Society in Reading, England, to prepare his case. If that group signs off, the proposal will go to the United Nation’s World Meteorological Organiza-tion in Geneva.

fields, but only after each parcel is carefully studied.

“We’re creating a SWAT team, basically, to look at parcels on an individual basis,” Hayes said.

Salazar said he agreed with that recommenda-tion.

“There are some par-cels that appear to be appropriate for leasing, and some that are not appropriate,” he said.

BLM critics said the agency’s political appointees under the Bush administration — some still in their jobs — should be held to account for the leasing decisions.

Selma Sierra, Utah’s BLM state director said at the outset of the con-troversy that she didn’t see anything wrong with drilling next to national parks.

“I’m puzzled the Park Service has been as upset as they are,” Sierra said in November. “There are already many parcels leased around the parks. It’s not like they’ve

never been leased. I don’t see it as something we are doing to under-mine the Park Service.”

BLM spokesman Lola Bird said Thursday that Sierra and the state office wouldn’t have any com-ment and referred ques-tions to Salazar’s office.

“The person who steers the ship in Utah is Selma Sierra. It couldn’t have happened without her,” Heidi McIntosh, a staff lawyer for the Southern Utah Wilder-ness Alliance, said Thursday. “The report expresses extreme dis-pleasure with the people who ran the show.”

ROME (AP) — Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi urged the world Thursday to understand what moti-vates terrorists, and lik-ened the 1986 U.S. strikes on Libya to Osama bin Laden’s terror attacks.

Gadhafi, who was long accused of sponsoring ter-rorism, struck a provoca-tive tone as he addressed Italian lawmakers on the second day of a trip to Italy, Libya’s former colo-nial ruler. He said there should be no interference from the West over the governments chosen by other countries.

The speech got tepid applause and was likely to add to the controversy that has surrounded this rare visit by Libya’s strongman to a Western democracy.

“It is not very intelligent to chase terrorists down the Afghan mountains or central Asia,” Gadhafi said in the hour-long speech. “That’s impossi-ble. We must look at their reasons.”

Gadhafi said he con-demned terrorism, al-Qaida and bin Laden. But he said he was being intentionally provocative “to try and understand acts of terrorism.”

He said that terror-ists, in explaining their motives, might argue they are defending themselves from humiliations suffered at the hands of the West and from the depletion of their riches. He called for dialogue with terrorists, saying, “One must talk to

the devil, if it brings about a solution.”

Sarcastically, he asked, “What’s the difference between the U.S. air-strikes on our homes and bin Laden’s actions?” If anything, he said, bin Laden is an outlaw, while the United States is a country that should abide by international law.

Former President Ronald Reagan ordered airstrikes on Tripoli and Benghazi in April 1986 after an attack on a disco in Germany killed three people, including two U.S. servicemen. The Libyans say the retaliatory attacks killed 41 people, includ-ing Gadhafi’s adopted daughter, and injured 226 others.

Gadhafi had long been ostracized by the West for sponsoring terrorism, but in recent years sought to emerge from his pariah status by abandoning weapons of mass destruc-tion and renouncing ter-rorism in 2003.

Libya has since agreed to pay compensation to the families of the Berlin disco victims as well as the families of the victims of the 1988 Pan Am 103 bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland, which killed 270 people, including 189 Americans. Libyan Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi was convicted of blowing up the plane.

HAMPTON, Va. (AP) — President Barack Obama’s controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, blamed “them Jews” in an interview this week for keep-ing him from speaking to the president, but later apolo-gized.

Wright, the former pastor of Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ, said he hasn’t spoken to Obama since he became president.

“Them Jews ain’t going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter that he’ll talk

to me in five years when he’s a lame duck, or in eight years when he’s out of office,” Wright told the Daily Press of New-port News

following a Tuesday night sermon at the 95th annual Hampton University Minis-ters’ Conference.

“They will not let him talk to somebody who calls a

spade what it is. ... I said from the beginning: He’s a politi-cian; I’m a pastor. He’s got to do what politicians do.”

Wright issued a statement Thursday that he was “dis-turbed and deeply saddened” that his comments were stir-ring discussion again.

“I apologize for the way I framed my comments. I mis-spoke and I sincerely meant no harm or ill-will to the American Jewish community or the Obama administration,” Wright said. “I have great respect for the Jewish faith

and the foundational (and cen-tral) part of our Judeo-Chris-tian tradition.”

Obama was a longtime member of the church but resigned from it and cut ties with Wright after videos sur-faced during the presidential campaign showing Wright’s sometimes provocative ser-mons. Wright’s incendiary comment included shouting “God damn America” and accusing the government of creating AIDS.

In the interview Tuesday, Wright also criticized Obama

for not sending a U.S. delega-tion to the World Conference on Racism held recently in Geneva, Switzerland, saying Obama chose not to for fear of offending Jews and Israel.

“Ethnic cleansing is going on in Gaza. Ethnic cleansing (by) the Zionist is a sin and a crime against humanity, and they don’t want Barack talk-ing like that because that’s anti-Israel,” Wright said.

The White House declined to comment to the Associ-ated Press on Thursday on Wright’s remarks.

The video that changed Pakistan?

Afghans: U.S. airstrikes missed militant cmdr.KABUL (AP) — U.S. air-

strikes in western Afghanistan missed their target of a militant commander and instead killed 12 other militants and 10 civil-ians, provincial officials said Thursday.

The U.S. military originally said the strike killed a warlord named Mullah Mustafa but now say he apparently sur-vived. In a statement issued Thursday, the U.S. said “cred-ible reports surfaced that Mus-tafa survived the attack” in

Ghor province.The U.S. said it was investi-

gating reports that civilians had been killed.

Rising violence in Afghani-stan has been accompanied by a spike in civilian casualties, which has turned many against the international effort even though far more casualties are caused by insurgent attacks than military operations. The Afghan government has called on coalition forces to put in more safeguards to prevent

civilian deaths during strikes.In one of the most high-pro-

file cases of civilian deaths, Afghan officials have accused coalition forces of killing 140 villagers with airstrikes dur-ing a May 4-5 assault in Farah province. U.S. commanders have said they believe no more than 30 civilians were killed, along with 60 to 65 Taliban insurgents.

The findings of a U.S. inqui-ry into those airstrikes are to be released as early as Friday, but

the Pentagon earlier this week said U.S. troops did not follow proper tactics and procedures.

Ghor deputy Gov. Karimud-din Rezazada told The Associ-ated Press that 10 civilians, including five children, and 12 militants were killed in Tuesday’s airstrikes in Shahrak district. He cited reports from district officials and area secu-rity forces.

Rezazada said Mullah Mustafa was not killed in the attack. He did not provide

further details but said he had dependable reports that Mus-tafa was alive.

The U.S. statement said “unsubstantiated reports of civilian casualties emerged” Thursday. The military said that its review of the opera-tion supports the idea that all those killed were militants, but said they are still examining reports.

The U.S. previously said 16 of Mustafa’s men were killed in the strike.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — The footage was chill-ing — a woman crying out in pain, held face-down on the ground, as a man with a long beard flogged her in front of a crowd.

It could be the video that changed Pakistan.

That two-minute clip, purportedly shot in the Swat Valley where the Taliban held sway until a recent military offensive, has come to represent the militants and their extreme form of Islam. The footage is increasingly seen here as a turning point — perhaps even more persuasive than all the bombings, behead-ings and other violence, most recently Tuesday’s suicide attack on a luxury hotel.

The circumstances of the beating are murky, no one is sure where exactly it happened, and the woman’s identity remains unclear more than two months after the whipping was shown

repeatedly on TV.No matter. She remains

irrevocably linked with the Taliban, an instant icon the government has used to ask Pakistanis if this is what they want for their country.

The answer from many seems to be no.

There are no scientific polls, but in informal inter-views by The Associated Press with more than three dozen Pakistanis across the country Wednesday and Thursday, not a single person expressed sympathy or allegiance toward the Taliban. The most common answer was the militants should be hunted down and killed.

Many people told the AP they used to support the Taliban but no longer do so. The finding is sup-ported by those of Pakistani analysts and commenta-tors, who say they detect a similar shift in public opinion recently against the Taliban.

Certainly, the militants retain some support, partic-ularly in the lawless tribal regions bordering Afghani-stan that the Taliban and al-Qaida have used as sanc-tuary. The extremists would likely retreat to these areas if they continue to suffer defeats elsewhere.

But the change in pub-lic mood is empowering the army in its offensive against the militants — a campaign supported by the Obama administration, which believes security in Pakistan is vital to defeat-ing the Taliban in neighbor-ing Afghanistan.

Now the army says it has the Taliban on the run, helped by tips from residents in villages under fire. It’s quite a change from several months ago, when the Taliban was on the march within 60 miles of the capital, Islamabad, and there was talk of the entire country falling to the militants.

“Like all of us, I was welcoming the Taliban in the beginning,” said Abdul Jabbar Khan, a 52-year-old shopkeeper. Khan now lives with eight family members in a relief camp in Mardan, along the north-west border with Afghani-stan. They said they were forced from their home by fighting in Mingora, Swat’s biggest town.

“When Maulana Fazlullah started giving ser-mons on the radio, he was talking about good things — heaven and Islamic teachings,” Khan said, referring to the Taliban leader in Swat.

“Now we have the result,” he continued. “It is very miserable, painful for all of us. We had a good life there. We had a good home and everything. Now we are begging for even daily meals. These people are responsible. They betrayed us and played with our reli-gious emotions.”

HAMILTON, Bermuda (AP) — Four Guantanamo detainees from arid, pre-dominantly Muslim western China were transferred to this very proper British colony Thursday, marking an unexpected new chapter in their odyssey.

Freed after being locked up seven years, the four men were given ties dur-ing their flight to the island and their lawyers gave quick lessons in how to knot them. They kept a low profile after landing and declined to talk with journal-ists.

They arrived just as islanders were starting to celebrate Bermuda’s 400th year of settlement. But Washington’s surprise announcement of the transfer set off grumbling by some islanders, and the colonial rulers in London bristled over not being told ahead of time.

Putting a cloud over the deal, Britain’s government said it was studying whether to allow Bermuda Premier Ewart Brown to go ahead with his plan to take in the men as refugees. Brown said the men

eventually would be permitted to pursue citizenship and would have the right to work, travel and “potentially settle else-where.”

The four previously had been expected to join 13 other Chinese Muslims, known as Uighurs, that the Pacific island nation of Palau has just agreed to take in from Guantanamo over the strong objections of China, which calls them terrorists.

The 17 were among Uighurs detained in Afghanistan and Pakistan in 2001, but had been in legal limbo since American authorities decided they were not enemy combatants or a danger to the U.S. and should be let go.

Lawmakers in Congress objected to any Uighurs being released in the U.S., and few other nations showed any inter-est in accepting them. Albania took in a few in 2006.

China demands the Uighurs be sent home for trial, but U.S. officials have said they fear the men would be executed if they returned to China.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The brute force of the recession earlier this year turned back the clock on Americans’ personal wealth to 2004 and wiped out a stagger-ing $1.3 trillion as home values shrank and investments withered.

Net worth, or the value of assets such as homes, checking accounts and investments minus debts like mortgages and credit cards, declined 2.6 percent in the first three months of the year, the Federal Reserve said Thursday.

Those months were some of the worst of the recession so far for job losses, and the stock market sank to its lowest point of the year in March. Since then, some signs suggest the

economy is stabilizing.Still, partly because of the

carnage earlier in the recession, Americans are putting plans on hold until the economy improves.

B. Smith, a conductor for a Chicago commuter rail line, is waiting to buy cars for two of his children. He spent $260,000 to build his suburban Chicago home about 10 years ago and watched its value spike to $380,000 in January 2008. Today, it stands at about $310,000. “I’m still ahead, but I’m not as ahead as I was before,” he said.

Even if things improve, such a dramatic evaporation of wealth will probably make Americans more thrifty down the road, said

Scott Hoyt, senior director of consumer economics at Moody’s Economy.com.

“The bulk of consumers alive today have not experienced declines in wealth like this,” Hoyt said. “They are already turning thrifty, and it will stay that way beyond the short term. This has been a significant learning experi-ence.”

Americans’ personal savings rate zoomed to 5.7 percent in April, the highest since 1995. And the amount in savings — $620.2 billion — was the most on record dating to January 1959.

One way to save: Maurice Boler, a management consultant, said he does many repairs himself

on his Indianapolis home rather than pay someone else. “I just take a little bit longer,” said the 53-year-old father of four, three of whom live at home.

Even if the economy recovers and starts to thrive again, he said he probably won’t break out the credit cards again. “It’s really not about stuff,” he said. “Stuff is nice, but life is not about how much more stuff can we get.”

According to the Fed report, the biggest damage to wealth in the first quarter came from the sinking stock market. The value of Americans’ stock holdings dropped almost 6 percent from the final quarter of last year — in a market that was already brutal.

Americans’ net worth shrinks $1.3 trillion in 1Q

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — A dozen young Iranians tap away at computers in a headquarters so new the light fixtures are still being installed. Their mission: to post videos, messages, blogs and anything else to further the Web-savvy campaign that hopes to bring down President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in today’s election.

A keyboard click sends out images from the enormous rallies for their pro-reform champion, Mir Hossein Mousavi. A tap of a mouse updates his speeches and messages. It’s heavy with the themes of hope and change — and packaged in the green hues of Mousavi’s signa-ture campaign color.

“We saw apathy among the new generation, but we also saw that young people wanted our society

to change,” said Saeed Shariati, a 35-year-old activist who runs Mousa-vi’s youth Web campaign. “We thought using social networks, which they like, would be the best way to bring Mousavi’s message to them.”

If it all seems like a flashback to the cyber-smart campaign of Barack Obama, that’s no coinci-dence. The young brain-trust behind Mousavi’s Web outreach is well aware of the trends and power in online politics. Many came of age dur-ing Iran’s first blog boom a decade ago and are as comfortable with Face-book and Twitter as any of their Western counterparts.

For the first time in Iran, the forces of the Web have been fully harnessed in an election showdown. It has catapulted Mousavi, a

67-year-old former prime minister from the 1980s, into a political rock star with the potential to pull off an upset victory with his promises of greater freedom and outreach to the United States.

Still, the race remains too close to call, with a runoff also a strong possi-bility. The winner needs to get at least 50 percent plus one of the votes today; if neither does, a runoff will be held on June 19.

In the broadest sense, the success of Mousavi’s Web campaign is a mea-sure of the sophistication and outward-looking orientation of the many members of the Islamic baby boom: the mil-lions born after the 1979 Islamic Revolution who now account for about a third of Iran’s 46.2 million eligible voters.

But it’s also another skirmish in a running media battle with Iran’s authorities.

Iran’s ruling clerics can easily muzzle reformist publications, but they have struggled to clamp down on the Web. Hackers quickly find ways around blocked Web addresses.

Blogs and social-networking sites have gained so much clout that authorities have pushed back hard, briefly shut-ting down Facebook last month to try to blunt Mousavi’s momentum and jailing several prominent bloggers despite an outcry from international press

freedom groups.While Facebook does

not do breakdowns by country, some reports estimate there are at least 200,000 users in Iran. Mousavi backers have also used the photo-shar-ing site Flickr as an online scrapbook of their rallies and campaign events.

have only mild symptoms and don’t need medical treatment.

WHO chief Dr. Marga-ret Chan made the long-awaited declaration after the U.N. agency held an emergency meeting with flu experts and said she was moving to phase 6 — the agency’s highest alert level — which means a pandemic is under way.

“The world is moving into the early days of its first influenza pandemic in the 21st century,” Chan said in Geneva.

Dr. Thomas Frieden, the new head of the U.S. Centers for Disease Con-trol and Prevention, said in Atlanta that he does not expect widespread pub-lic anxiety in the United States as a result of the declaration, noting it came nearly two months after

the virus was identified.For many weeks, U.S.

health officials have been treating it as a pandemic, increasing the availability of anti-viral flu medicines and pouring money into a possible vaccination pro-gram. And scientists have grown to understand that the virus is generally not much more severe than

the seasonal flu.But the virus can still be

deadly and may change into a more frightening form in the near future, and so people should not be complacent, he added.

So far, swine flu has caused 144 deaths, com-pared with ordinary flu that kills up to 500,000 people a year.

SoundsContinued from A1

That world includes high-tech hearing aids and cochlear implants, which “allow a person to hear through an electri-cal stimulation,” Houston said.

Alex has worn hear-ing aids since he was 3 months old, and is sched-uled to undergo surgery to get cochlear implants in September, Guthrie said.

Cochlear implants consist of a microphone worn on the outside of the ear that converts sound to electrical impulses, which are transmitted through an electrode array into

the cochlea — the portion of the ear that converts sound impulses into elec-trical impulses and trans-mits them to the brain. The electrical impulses from the device simulate the impulses a normally functioning cochlea cre-ates, Houston said.

Alex is scheduled to undergo implantation surgery in September, Guthrie said.

Cochlear implants have been at the center of con-troversy since they were created. Houston empha-sized that the camp and the Sound Beginnings program are designed to let families of children with hearing loss know some of the options available to them. Each family must decide for themselves what route to

take with their children, he said.

Families from as far away as Cedar City trav-eled to Logan for the camp, Houston said.

The camp is a good chance for the children to meet other children with hearing loss, hear-ing aids or implants, said Katie Gardner, a Logan mother who attended the camp with her 5-year-old daughter, Carolyn-Kate. Most of those who attended the camp are the only ones in their families and their neighborhoods with hearing loss, Gard-ner said.

The camp was run as part of Sound Beginnings, a USU early intervention program that includes a preschool for children with hearing loss.

FluContinued from A1

between the ages of 25 and 34.

The only confirmed female case was between the ages of 25 and 34.

None of the cities where the swine flu vic-tims reside have been released, since that infor-mation is protected by medical confidentiality laws.

Jill Parker, spokes-woman for the Bear River Health Department, said none of the six indi-viduals with confirmed cases in the county were hospitalized.

However, the Utah Department of Health announced Thursday that further testing by the state for the swine flu, also known as the H1N1 virus, will be limited to those patients who are hospitalized as a result of their illness.

Surveillance data indi-cate that roughly 95 per-cent of influenza activity

statewide is due to the H1N1 virus, according to UDOH.

For that reason, the state health department is advising clinicians to assume that any patient who tests positive for influenza A is infected with the H1N1 virus and may begin treatment without laboratory confir-mation.

“This change is part of the usual process of a disease investigation,” said Lloyd Berentzen, executive director of the Bear River Health Department. “It is impor-tant to remember that (future) reported numbers of H1N1 will be hospital-ized cases only and will not accurately reflect the prevalence of novel H1N1 in our commu-nity.”

Women who are preg-nant, children younger than 5 and those with a pre-existing chronic medical illness are con-sidered high risk and are advised by the health department to contact their health care provider if they experience influ-

enza-like illness. Commenting on the

World Health Organi-zation’s declaration of a global pandemic Thurs-day, Berentzen said, “This declaration is of importance but will not change how we monitor and track hospitalized cases. We will continue to closely heed the guid-ance of the Centers for Disease Control regard-ing this disease.”

Dr. Ed Redd, Bear River Health Department deputy director, said fre-quent hand washing, cov-ering coughs and staying home when sick are ways to help safeguard against contracting the virus and are “more important than we sometimes realize.”

“Fortunately, this has been a relatively mild disease,” said Redd. “However, every person in our community has a role to play in preventing the spread.”

The UDOH reported Thursday that 90 individ-uals have required hospi-talization in the state, and two people have died as a result of the H1N1 virus.

Sports briefsBrady unable to compete in relay

Unfortunately for former Sky View star and current BYU freshman McKade Brady, his experience at the NCAA Out-door Track and Field Champi-onships was cut short.

Brady reaggravated his hamstring injury — he tore in it January — while practicing Wednesday and was unable to compete in the qualifying round of the 4x400-meter relay Thursday in Fayetteville, Ark.

Brady, who suffered the injury while working on his start, was replaced in the lineup by Kevin Ahlstrom. The Cougars ended up cross-ing the line with a season-best time of 3 minutes, 6.60 seconds, but it wasn’t enough to advance them to the finals. BYU finished 14th and only the top eight teams move on.

BoSox make it 8 straight vs. Yanks

BOSTON (AP) — J.D. Drew hit an RBI single to spark an eighth-inning rally, then scored the go-ahead run on Mike Lowell’s fly ball to help Boston improve to 8-0 against the Yankees this year with a 4-3 victory.

It’s the first time the Red Sox have opened the season with eight straight wins against their New York rivals since they helped christen the brand-new Fenway Park by winning the first 14 matchups against the Highlanders in 1912.

Takashi Saito (1-0) earned his first AL victory with four outs of scoreless relief, and Jonathan Papelbon pitched the ninth for his 16th save.

Several Utah State football players, as well as other student-athletes at the university, have tested positive for the H1N1 (swine flu) virus.

According to Dr. Jim Davis, director of student health and wellness at USU, about “a dozen-and-a-half” Aggie ath-letes have confirmed cases of the swine flu.

Besides those student-athletes, other people affiliated with USU have also contracted the virus.

“We have had some con-firmed cases and we have had

some cases that are presumed, but not confirmed,” Davis said. “Because of the overwhelming number of tests that are being

done, the state is cur-rently not requesting — and in fact asking not to have confirmatory test-ing done — on people

who have obvious swine flu. “They’re reserving that testing

for particularly described cases — very ill cases, cases in the hospital or cases where the sys-tems are unclear and you need to decide what you’re treating.”

Morgan Wilde has only been married since March.

But he’s already in the mar-ket for a new wedding band.

That’s because the bareback rider lost his ring at the con-clusion of his run Thursday on the opening night of the Great American West Rodeo

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Arms raised in triumph, Derek Fisher walked up the floor look-ing as if he had just landed the knockout punch.

He delivered two.

Fisher forced overtime with a 3-pointer with 4.6 seconds left in regulation and then drilled another with 31.3 seconds to go in overtime as the Los Angeles Lakers outlasted the Orlando

Magic 99-91 in Game 4 on Thursday night to open a 3-1 lead in the NBA finals.

Kobe Bryant is one win from an NBA title to call his own.

The Lakers are one victory from title No. 15 and redemption for last year’s loss to Boston.

Wilde, who sits in second place following Thursday’s

ride, briefly searched the muddy grounds at the Cache County Fairground Arena, but to no avail.

“She’ll be all right,” said Wilde, when asked how his wife was going to react to the news. “She’s pretty easy going, a good girl.”

Due to all the moisture Cache Valley has received over the last little while, deal-ing with the muddy conditions was the theme of the night for the competitors.

“I like to avoid the mud, but you can’t do a whole lot about it,” said the 21-year-old Wilde,

As years go, 1987 was still young but had already been unparalleled in the life of veteran

Utah State Head Wrestling Coach Bob Carlson. Then winter became spring.

His national profile in the sport was a result of his consistently strong program, his role as Presi-dent of the National Wres-tling Coaches Association and powerful committee

assignments at the highest level of collegiate and amateur wrestling.

His guys had just finished a 17-2 dual meet season, the ninth best record in the country after which the Aggies emerged from the NCAA Championship meet in 14th place with a pair of two time All-Americans, Alfred Cas-tro and Cordel Anderson.

In fact, it was the best of his 19 years in a program he’d built from nothing.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Phil Mickelson wasted no time firing up fans with birdies on the open-ing two holes. Then came a sliced tee shot into the

water and a nearly four-putt green. He birdied two of the last three holes.

A typical round for one of golf’s most unpredictable stars.

Returning to work for the first time since dis-closing last month that his wife has breast cancer, Mickelson got off to a solid start in the St. Jude Classic with a 2-under 68 that left him four shots behind Brian Gay.

Mickelson wore a pink ribbon stitched into the side of his white cap and at times looked fatigued.

on recently elected to the World Golf Hall of Fame, was the day’s surprise. Still coping with arthritis pain, the Spaniard shot a 66 to finish in a group that included Rich Beem and Graeme McDowell.

Under heavy clouds that brought brief show-ers midway through his

round, Mickelson was easy to spot because of the some 750 fans fol-lowing him — one man dressed all in pink.

John Daly’s comeback was for vastly different reasons, and the result not quite the same.

AP photoManchester United accepted a world-record transfer offer for Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid on Thursday.

LONDON (AP) — Man-chester United accepted a world-record transfer offer for Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid on Thursday, clearing the World Player of the Year to negotiate terms with the Spanish club.

The Premier League cham-pions said it received an unconditional offer of $131 million for Ronaldo, and unlike last offseason is will-ing to see its 24-year-old star join a major European rival.

United said: “At Cris-tiano’s request — who has again expressed his desire to leave — and after dis-cussion with the player’s representatives, United have agreed to give Real Madrid permission to talk to the player. Matters are

expected to be concluded by 30 June.”

Madrid confirmed the offer for Ronaldo in a state-ment, saying: “The club hopes to reach an agreement with the player in the com-ing days.”

The Portugal winger, who joined United from Sporting Lisbon in 2003, spent last June pushing for what he called at the time a “dream move” to Madrid.

An unsuccessful com-plaint about Madrid’s pur-suit was made to soccer’s world governing body FIFA and an offseason move was blocked by manager Alex Ferguson, who traveled to Lisbon to persuade his play-

er to stay at Old Trafford.That didn’t stop Ronaldo

being linked with Madrid, and Ferguson’s irritation boiled over in December when he said he “wouldn’t sell Madrid a virus,” describ-ing the club as a “mob.”

But a world-record bid appears too hard to resist for a club whose debts have spi-raled to nearly $1 billion.

Ronaldo, who was under contract until 2012, plunged his future into doubt after United lost the Champions League final to Barcelona last month, saying he wasn’t sure if would stay. This came despite having vowed to remain with United in the buildup to the match and in a broadcast interview.

The return of Florentino

Perez as Madrid’s president has changed things as the billionaire looks to spend lavishly to return the Span-ish side to the glory days.

Brazilian star Kaka was signed away from AC Milan earlier this week for a report-ed fee of around $92 million.

But the offer for Ronaldo would eclipse that, as well as the $65 million Madrid paid to lure former France striker Zinedine Zidane away from Juventus in 2001.

Ronaldo’s arrival could strengthen Madrid’s posi-tion as world soccer’s rich-est club based on revenue. According to accoun-tancy firm Deloitte, Madrid earned over $512 million compared to second-place United’s $455 million.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — The NCAA placed Alabama’s foot-ball program and 15 other of the school’s athletic teams on three years’ probation for major vio-lations due to misuse of free textbooks.

The NCAA’s Com-mittee on Infractions said Thursday the football team must vacate an unspecified number of wins in which any of seven players took part dur-ing 2005-2007. The university identified the seven as “intentional wrongdoers.”

The NCAA said that 201 athletes in the 16 sports, including men’s basketball, obtained “impermissible benefits” by using their scholar-ships to obtain free text-books for other students. It also found the univer-sity guilty of “failure to monitor.”

The university was ordered to pay a $43,900 fine, close to the total value of the books.

Alabama identified 22 of the athletes as “inten-tional wrongdoers” who knew they were receiv-ing improper benefits. Fifteen were members of the women’s track

and field programs who acquired textbooks and materials of value greater than $100 for girlfriends, friends and other stu-dent-athletes. The four biggest offenders in dol-lar value were football players, who received from $2,714 to $3,947 in improper benefits.

The other sports hit with proba-tion were soft-ball, baseball, gymnastics, women’s bas-ketball, soccer, volleyball and both the men’s

and women’s teams in golf, swimming, tennis and track and field.

The university is a repeat violator since the program was placed on five years probation in Feb. 2002, when it was also under the five-year window for bas-ketball violations.

“Although the commit-tee commends the institu-tion for self-discovering, investigating and report-ing the textbook viola-tions, it remains troubled, nonetheless, by the scope of the violations in this instance and by the insti-tution’s recent history of infractions cases,” the NCAA said.

Forcing Alabama to vacate the wins, instead of forfeitures, means the

opponents who lost those games won’t be allowed to change their own records to reflect a victory.

The NCAA said some 125 athletes received benefits totaling less than $100 each.

The university was cited for not adequately monitoring the process or having a system for detecting the violations on a timely basis. The NCAA said the athletes weren’t restricted by purchase limits or required to show photo identification.

The university could not produce records before the 2005 fall semester, so it’s unclear if similar violations occurred earlier.

Nick Saban replaced Mike Shula as coach after the 2006 football season and suspended five play-ers — Antoine Caldwell, Glen Coffee, Marquis Johnson, Chris Rogers and Marlon Davis — for four games when the university uncovered the violations in 2007. The Tide was 5-2 at that point and its only wins in the next six games came against Tennessee and Colorado in the Inde-pendence Bowl.

The sanctions come at a time when Alabama fans were celebrating the program’s return to national prominence.

DETROIT (AP) — Nicklas Lid-strom, Chris Osgood and Kirk Malt-by spread out like a perfectly shaped triangle in the Detroit Red Wings dressing room and tried to explain how Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals is really like any other game.

When that seemingly unbeliev-able message comes from guys who have championship rings that nearly cover a whole hand it begins to sound plau-sible.

“It’s hard to really mentally sell it to yourself that it’s just another game, but it is,” Maltby said Thursday.

Lidstrom, Maltby, Tomas Holm-strom and Kris Draper are going for their fifth title in 12 seasons Friday night in Game 7 against the Pitts-burgh Penguins. Osgood is on the verge of a fourth ring, third as the Red Wings starting goalie.

Detroit had a shot for its second straight Cup on Tuesday night in Game 6, but fell 2-1 in Pittsburgh. The Red Wings have one more chance to secure it, and they will try at home where they are 11-1 in the playoffs — 3-0 in this series.

“It’s no different,” said Osgood, 15-7 with a 2.00 goals-against average in the playoffs. “Game 7 is just another game to win the Cup. That was our Game 7 in Pittsburgh.

“It makes no difference if it’s Game 4, 5, 6, or 7. If you can win the Cup, you’ve got the exact same type of game. The only difference

is they have a chance now, too.”That depends on whom you ask.The home team won each of the

first six games. The Penguins went 1-2 at Joe Louis Arena in last year’s finals and have been outscored 11-2 in three losses in this series.

Given the chance to practice in Detroit on Thursday, Penguins coach Dan Bylsma decided the upside wasn’t enough to sacrifice another day at home. The Pen-guins skated one last time in Pitts-burgh before flying to Detroit.

“I didn’t think a seventh time or an eighth time ... was going to show us one thing about the boards that we didn’t already know,” Bylsma said. “I thought staying home would give us a bet-ter chance to be more focused and more prepared in our routine.”

Pittsburgh captain Sidney Cros-by has been bottled up by forward

Henrik Zetterberg, who hits the ice pretty much every time Crosby does, and hasn’t scored a goal in six finals games in Detroit.

Crosby and teammate Evgeni Malkin, who led the NHL with 113 points in the regular season, went pointless in the Game 6 win. That was Pittsburgh’s first post-season victory since the dynamic duo joined the team in which nei-ther star got on the score sheet.

The Penguins can’t expect to dethrone the Red Wings in Detroit if Crosby and Malkin are blanked again.

“I’d always like to score more,” said Crosby, who has a goal and two assists in the series. “I look back, and on some of the chances I’ve had just didn’t really get a whole lot of luck. Now is not the time to think about what could have been.”

DALLAS (AP) — For Dallas Stars general man-ager Joe Nieuwendyk, it became clear in less than two weeks on the job that a coaching change was necessary. The team needed a leader with a tougher edge.

Nieuwendyk turned to Marc Craw-ford, a coach he once played for in the Olympics and someone simi-lar to the coach he played for when the Stars won their only Stanley Cup 10 years ago.

“What Marc will bring is a real command at the top,” Nieuwendyk said. “The players will know who’s in charge. They will be held accountable on a daily basis. That’s what I think is necessary.”

Crawford was intro-duced Thursday as the replacement for Dave Tippett, who was fired Wednesday. The coach-ing change is the first significant move made by Nieuwendyk since he was hired May 31.

The more player-friend-ly Tippett had replaced Ken Hitchcock, who was fired midway through 2001-02 season. Now the Stars are going back to a more dominant coach after missing the playoffs for

only the third time since moving to Dallas in 1993.

The 48-year-old Craw-ford won the 1996 Stan-ley Cup with Colorado, and has a 470-361-156 record in 13 seasons as coach of the Quebec Nordiques/Colorado Avalanche, Vancouver

Canucks and Los Angeles Kings.

Crawford was also head coach for Team Canada during the 1998 Winter Olympics, a squad that lost a shootout to the Czech Republic in the semifinal game and missed out on the bronze medal

by losing to Finland.He spent last season in

the television booth after being fired by the Kings following two losing sea-sons. He had interviewed for other jobs recently, though he wouldn’t say with which teams or if there had been discussions about a return to Colorado. He said he was preparing to talk to another team when Nieuwendyk called over the weekend.

“I’ve never felt more ready for a challenge than I do today, and I think that’s largely because I do have a lot to prove and I recog-nize that,” he said. “In a lot of ways, the Stars are simi-lar. That’s what makes me so excited, how motivated the players are.”

SCOREBOARD

June 12 1930 — Max Schmeling beats Jack Sharkey on a fourth-round foul for the vacant heavyweight title in New York. Schmeling becomes the first German — and European — heavyweight world champion. 1939 — Byron Nelson wins the U.S. Open in a three-way playoff with Craig Wood and Denny Shute. 1948 — Citation, ridden by Eddie Arcaro, wins the Belmont Stakes and the Triple Crown with an eight-length victory over Better Self. It’s Arcaro’s second Triple Crown. He rode Whirla-way in 1941. 1948 — Ben Hogan wins the U.S. Open with a record 276, five lower than Ralph Guldahl’s 1937 record. 1977 — Japan’s Chako Higuchi wins the LPGA championship by three strokes over Pat Bradley, Sandra Post and Judy Rankin.

1981 — Larry Holmes stops Leon Spinks in the third round for the WBC heavyweight title in Detroit. 1983 — Patty Sheehan wins the LPGA championship by two strokes over Sandra Haynie. 1990 — Egypt, a 500-1 long shot, stuns the Netherlands when Magdi Abdel-Ghani converts a penalty shot with 8 minutes remaining to tie the World Cup favorites 1-1. 1991 — The Chicago Bulls win the first NBA championship in the team’s 25-year history with a 108-101 vic-tory in Game 5 over the Los Angeles Lakers. MVP Michael Jordan scores 30 points, Scottie Pippen has 32 and John Paxson 20. 1999 — Cal Ripken is 6-for-6, homering twice and driving in six runs as the Baltimore Orioles score the most runs in franchise history with a 22-1 rout of the Atlanta Braves.

2005 — Annika Sorenstam closes with a 1-over 73 for a three-shot vic-tory over Michelle Wie in the LPGA Championship. The 15-year-old Wie shoots a 69 to finish second. It’s the highest finish by an amateur in a major since 20-year-old Jenny Chua-siriporn lost a playoff to Se Ri Pak in the 1998 U.S. Women’s Open. 2007 — Justin Verlander, mixing 99 mph heat with crazy curveballs, pitches a no-hitter to lead the Detroit Tigers over the Milwaukee Brewers 4-0. 2008 — The Boston Celtics over-come a 24-point deficit and beat the Los Angeles Lakers 97-91 to take a commanding 3-1 lead in the NBA finals. No team has ever overcome more than a 15-point deficit after the first quarter, and the Celtics post the biggest comeback in the finals since 1971.

HislopContinued from B1

Turns out it was also the last of those years.

Bob was in Logan in Febru-ary of this year for induction into USU’s Athletics Hall of Fame, Class of 2009. He was measured then in his public comments about what hap-pened to his program those two decades ago.

This week on the phone from his home in Las Vegas that reti-cense was gone, replaced with a touch of lingering anger and much confusion.

A quick review: Utah State’s campus wide budget challeng-

es of ’87 forced cuts all over campus.

“It wasn’t just athletics, it was everywhere,” said retired USU President Stan Cazier Thursday from his home in Logan. “As far as athletics, I left that up to Rod (Tueller) and others. I was sorry to see wrestling go. My nephew was the trainer for Bob Carlson. It surprised me when wrestling was cut, I thought it might be something else.”

That year funding was pulled back from women’s basketball and wrestling but wrestling held on, barely, for two more years with Mark Harris coaching.

Wrestling left the Aggie landscape completely in 1989.

Exactly 20 years ago.Carlson remembers attending

a full athletics staff meeting the spring of 1987 after his wrestlers competed so well in the nationals. When Direc-tor of Athletics Tueller stood to announce the dropping of women’s basketball and wres-tling in the meeting, Carlson said he came unhinged.

“I was completely blind-sided,” he said, “I had no clue it had been decided.”

Carlson describes his many attempts, new approaches and varied fund raising schemes, to keep the program alive. Tueller said this week he remembers considering each of Bob’s ideas, finding them all unworkable.

“It was not an enjoyable decision ,” said Tueller this week. “It’s not something I wanted to do, it had to be

done.”In 1987 it was USU’s Ath-

letic Council which approved the department’s budget, Tuel-ler said. “The shortfall was coming so they directed us (Rod and assistant director Kaye Hart) to come up with a proposal. And we did.”

Tueller said it was all about budgets and staying within the government’s Title IX guide-lines which dictated equality among men’s and women’s athletics. He remembers league leaders endorsing the move since losing women’s basketball and wrestling had little impact on them. And one more note from the former Aggie AD: several other colleges of that era were dropping wrestling.

With Aggie wrestling soon

to be extinct and perhaps his Associate AD’s job at USU not as attractive as it once was, Carlson left USU in July, 1987. He took an administrative job in college athletics in his native Pennsylvania, later retiring as a successful director of athletics at Clarion University.

SwineContinued from B1

raised the worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6 in response to the ongoing global spread of the H1N1 virus. A Phase 6 designation indicates a global pandemic is underway.

More than 70 countries are now reporting cases of human infection with the swine flu. This num-ber has been increasing over the past few weeks, but many of the cases reportedly had links to travel or were localized outbreaks without com-munity spread.

“The reason this is significant is because we don’t have immunity to it,” Davis said. “It’s a brand new illness to us ... but it only has about a 30 percent penetration into the population and that’s demonstrated by families and work places where it comes, but it doesn’t hit a 100 percent of the people.

“It hits about 30 per-cent, has an incubation period of about a week, has a course of about four to five days, and then you

feel better.”In the U.S., most peo-

ple who have become ill with the swine flu have recovered without requir-ing medical treatment.

However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) antici-pates there will be more cases, more hospitaliza-tions and more deaths associated with this pan-demic in the coming days and weeks. In addition, this virus could cause significant illness with associated hospitaliza-tions and deaths in the fall and winter during the U.S. influenza season.

“The good thing is there is a vaccine being developed right as we speak and it looks like it’s about to be released in Japan, so they’ll have some testing done,” Davis said. “So they’ve identified the virus, they’ve got the virus duplicating and they’ve got the appropriate machinery geared up to produce a vaccine for fall and winter this year.

“The bad news is you’ll probably have to get two flu shots because they won’t have time to work this into other flu shots.”

According to the Web site, www.cdc.gov, the

state of Utah has 461 confirmed and probable cases of the swine flu, and two related deaths.

“It’s a concern and most of the deaths occur in people who have underly-ing health issues,” said Dale Mildenberger, head athletic trainer at USU.

One source close to the USU football program wrote in an e-mail to The Herald Journal, “as a precaution they have sent people home if they could possibly be sick so as not to get anyone else sick. They have put in a disinfection policy/pro-gram in the weight room to prevent a sick person from touching equipment and passing any com-municable disease onto anyone else.”

Said Mildenberger: “We’re following the entire university protocol on this. We’re only one portion of the students who are affected with this. The university has asked professors to be tolerant with people not coming to class who are feeling ill. And we’re doing the same thing. ... It’s a concern and we’re addressing it at its proper level.”

Last Friday, USU issued a memo urging professors and students to take spe-

cial precautions to reduce the chance of spreading the H1N1 virus.

“Because part of the recommended treatment for patients with symp-toms of the influenza is social distancing, that is, staying away from oth-ers for the duration of symptoms, it is inevitable that it will affect the uni-versity and its teaching mission to some degree,” Davis said.

Davis said that should students acquire the H1N1 flu, they will be asked by their doctors to stay at home, take specif-ic medications and take other intervention steps to help slow the spread of the illness.

“We are serious about sending people home who are ill because that’s probably the one thing that does work,” he said.

If more cases continue to emerge in the days ahead, Davis said he will recommend that profes-sors consider making more of their course work accessible via Blackboard or other online venues.

Symptoms of the H1N1 are similar to the more common type A influ-enza: fever, chills, body aches, sore throat, runny nose and cough.

He played on the PGA Tour for the first time since a six-month suspension for off-course activities that brought unwanted publicity. Daly opened with eight straight pars and a birdie, but his putter failed him miserably. He followed with three straight bogeys for a 72.

“Probably the worst I’ve putted in five years,” Daly said, wearing

a neon green shirt that matched his argyle pants of green and yellow.

He offered little in how it felt to be playing before fans near his hometown in Arkansas, who fol-lowed him around the TPC South-wind and were treated to a round with few highlights, good or bad.

Gay has narrowly missed out on qualifying for the first two majors, although he has one chance left. Having won at Hilton Head last month, a victory this week would get him into the U.S. Open. He led by one shot over Jimmy Walker.

Mickelson openly shared his emo-

tions and fears before the tournament. He was more guarded after his round Thursday, sticking mainly to his golf and the tropical vacation after the U.S. Open a week before Amy has surgery and begins treatment.

“It wasn’t a great round, but it was a good start,” Mickelson said. “It was fun to play a little bit.”

He was particularly pleased with his group — three-time major win-ner Padraig Harrington and Camer-on Beckman. They chatted between shots, although his talk with Har-rington before the round might have been the most meaningful.

Magic disappear even better.“It ranks right up there

at the top,” he said. “You know, even greater than 0.4 because I feel like we’re as close as possible to what our end goal is.”

It was the first time since 1984, when Magic Johnson’s Lakers and Larry Bird’s Celtics hooked up, that two games in a finals have gone to overtime.

When the clock expired, Bryant, trying to win his first champion-ship without Shaquille O’Neal, looked at Tiger Woods and wiped sweat from his brow in relief. Fisher, who has bailed out the Lakers in plenty of big games before, was hugged by every one of his teammates.

He had missed his first five 3s and promised teammate Pau Gasol he wouldn’t miss again.

“He’s been there before,” Bryant said. “He has been there and done that.

“He just has supreme confidence and I think those shots at the end of the game are actually easier for him than the other ones.”

The Lakers, who improved to 7-0 following a loss in the postseason, can wrap up their first title since 2002 on Sun-day night in Game 5.

Bull rider Dustin Tib-bits wasn’t thrilled with the conditions.

“I don’t like muddy arenas at all,” Tibbits said. “It’s hard to get away from (the bulls), it’s not fun at all. I don’t like it. ... I looked up the weather and saw it was raining, and I really didn’t want to come.

“But I need money.”He’s well on his way to

winning some cash.Tibbits, of Pahrump,

Nev., recorded a 78-point ride — the best of the night — aboard Ram Tuff.

“That bull was good,” said Tibbits, who current-ly ranks first in his event in the Wilderness Circuit Standings. “... I’ve been drawing good; drawing bulls like that is good.”

Tibbits was just one of four bull riders — out of 12 — to turn in qualify-ing rides.

The steer wrestlers had just about the same amount of success.

The first two cowboys didn’t even drop from their horses. Trevor Car-son, of American Fork, was the first participant to get his steer down. How-ever, he had a hard time wrestling his steer to the ground and was eventually clocked in at 38.6 seconds

— he was given a 10-sec-ond penalty for breaking the rope barrier — which is good enough for second place at this point.

Tom Lewis, of Lehi, turned in an impressive time of 6.9 seconds and is the front-runner heading into the final two days of the rodeo.

Just like any other event Thursday, steer wrestling proved difficult in the wet conditions.

“When you first get here and you see all the mud and the water, it gets you a little bit,” said Lewis, who has been with his horse, Cody, for three years now. “But you just kind of have to adjust; we changed the game plan.”

Lewis was not worried about his performance after watching Tremonton’s Bay-lor Roche and Eagle Moun-tain’s Bryan Hooley fail to drop from their horses.

“We go for the money and the fans and every-thing, so we’re here to compete,” he said. “We had to see the steer start just a little more and they don’t run as hard in the mud, so just adjust a little bit and go get him.”

Will 6.9 seconds hold up for Lewis?

“I don’t know,” said Lewis, who currently ranks ninth in the Wil-derness Circuit. “If the conditions were right, no. But with the mud and the whole thing, it changes things a little bit. ... It’s hard to know.

“I hope it does.”Lewis bought Cody

and made him into a steer wrestling horse — he was a team roping horse before that.

“He treats us really good,” said Lewis, whose father is his hazer. “Good to haul, good to travel around, and they become part of the family.”

Bareback rider Moe Heaton, of Paradise, was the lone contestant from the valley to compete on Thursday night.

He needed just one word to sum up his performance.

“Horrible,” said Hea-ton, who scored 51 on No Angel. “Those are the worst kind of horses to get on. They don’t buck the same ever, just trash you.”

It seemed as if No Angel was going to buck off Heaton, who was being thrown all over.

“That’s what I mean, they’re out of line,” Hea-ton said. “There’s nothing you can do on them but look stupid.”

Heaton, who ranks eighth in the Wilderness Circuit, will look for a bet-ter ride Saturday when he competes in the Days of the Old West Rodeo in Delta.

The GAWR continues tonight and Saturday.

Lewis will be in Delta tonight and Cortez, Colo., on Saturday for the Ute Mountain Roundup, but considers Logan a favor-ite stop of his.

“We love it,” Lewis said. “... I just appreciate the hospitality in Logan. They’ve always been good fans and the people, they’ve always been nice.”

points, eight assists and seven rebounds. Trevor Ariza and Gasol each had 16 for Los Angeles, which came back from a 12-point halftime deficit. Ariza had 13 of the Lakers’ 30 points in the third quarter.

Unless they can force a Game 6, the Magic will remember this as another finals game that got away.

Dwight Howard was magnificent everywhere but at the free-throw line. Orlando’s superman of a center had 16 points, 21 rebounds and a finals-record nine blocks. But he made just 6 of 14 foul shots, and it was his two crucial misses with 11.1 seconds to go in regulation that doomed the Magic.

Orlando missed 15 free throws.

“I just missed them,” Howard said. “I’ve been working on my free throws. They just weren’t

falling tonight.”After Howard’s late

misses, Fisher pulled up and without hesitating dropped a 3-pointer over Orlando’s Jameer Nelson with 4.6 seconds left to tie it 87-87. The shot stunned the Magic’s maniacal crowd, which was hoping the home team could win its second straight finals game after dropping its first six.

“I just sensed that was the dagger,” Fisher said. “That was the one that would put us in a position to close out the game even though the game wasn’t over.”

In NBA finals history, only two players have made more 3s than Fish-er’s 40: Robert Horry (56) and Michael Jordan (42).

“It’s character,” Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. “We’ve always said the character has got to be in players if they are going to be great players.”

Outdoors report

By Chris ThomasFor The Herald Journal

Salmonflies are big and orange and fly down the river like bombers on a mission.

If you know which rivers to watch and

when to be watching them, you could be caught in the middle of one of the West’s greatest annual fishing events. The salmonfly hatch is the mass hatching of giant insects that makes fly fish-ermen salivate and big fish rise to the surface bouncing, egg-laying adults with reckless abandon. The fish know when it’s going to happen too; whether it’s the big nymphs migrating from the

cracks and crevasses under the rocks in the main current to the river’s edge to shed their black underwater nymphal skins for their new sleek bodies with wings, or something else, they know it’s underway and they are ready.

One of the best ways to find out whether salmonflies are hatching on a river is to drive along it until you see them fly-ing across the road or to check at each bridge crossing for adults emerging from their nymphal shucks or drying their wings on shoreline rocks or vegetation. A day or two after hatching, the egg-laden females fly back to the river during the afternoon and evening hours to deposit their

eggs with brief contacts to the water surface. The sheer num-ber of insects involved, their immense size, and the lengthy duration of this hatch makes these insects a prime source of protein for fish.

Salmonfly hatches are a big part of the lore that draws peo-ple to fly fish-ing. If you know anyone who has fished in a big one, you have

probably heard the stories. Some of our local rivers have

very good hatches, and within a reasonable driving distance there are some legendary ones. Unfortunately, the Logan River isn’t one of them. It used to have a great annual hatch, but it hasn’t had a documented one for more than half a century. What hap-pened to the salmonflies in the Logan is a question that many an entomologist and fisherman have asked; no one knows the answer for sure. Five years ago the USU bug lab and the Cache Anglers started a project of mov-ing salmonfly nymphs and adults from the Blacksmith Fork River back to the Logan River with some success. In the last couple of years some of the nymphs have crawled out of the water and hatched into adults but whether they could find other transplanted salmonflies to mate with is the real question. Success of this project would mean that a huge source of biomass could someday return to a river it was once in; and more biomass means bigger fish. And if we’re really lucky, some day another generation of fishermen could again fish a salmonfly hatch on the Logan River.

Timing is the most important part of this story though. You have to be there when a Salmon-fly hatch happens because if you show up late ... it might be over

Bighorn researcher investigatedMOSCOW, Idaho (AP)

— The University of Idaho has opened an investigation into whether the head of its Caine Veterinary Teaching and Research Center suppressed information from a 1994 study that appears to show bighorn sheep can get deadly diseases directly from domestic sheep on the open range.

The center’s leader, Marie Bulgin, is a past president of the Idaho Wool Growers Association who has testified before Idaho lawmakers and in federal court that there is no evidence of such disease trans-mission.

In a statement, the univer-sity said it “is aware of media reports about professor of veterinary medicine Marie Bulgin’s comments on bighorn sheep research and takes seri-ously concerns raised by those reports. A complete under-standing of the facts is impera-

tive and the university is investigating the matter thor-oughly. Our scholarly and cre-ative activity, which includes research, seeks to generate knowledge to strengthen the scientific, economic, cultural, social and legal foundations of an open, diverse and demo-cratic society. The people of Idaho count on us to be fair, diligent and candid, and we place the utmost importance on that responsibility. The uni-versity will take appropriate steps to ensure the integrity of its research.”

Disease transmission between bighorns and domes-tic sheep is a sore subject in Idaho, where Payette National Forest managers are consider-ing reducing domestic sheep grazing allotments near Hell’s Canyon to protect bighorns reintroduced there in 1971. Ranchers are fighting the pro-posed reductions in court.

Bulgin has said there may be other factors that result in bighorn sheep die-offs, such as ones where 300 sheep died in 1995 and 1996 in Hell’s Can-yon. Idaho bighorn numbers have dwindled by half since 1990, to about 3,500 animals.

In interviews with The Associated Press and others, Bulgin said she was unaware of the 1994 study conducted by Caine center scientists on two dead bighorns that showed a possible link. The research never resulted in a paper being published.

“It’s not my research,” she told the Lewiston Tribune. “I can’t be sitting on some-thing I didn’t do. It wasn’t my research, so I had no control over it.”

In the study, a bighorn ewe and ram from separate herds in Nevada and Oregon were seen mixing with domestic sheep in those states. Captured and brought to the Idaho Fish and Game Wildlife Health Labora-tory in Caldwell, they soon died of pneumonia.

Scientists from the Idaho Department of Fish and Game and the Caine center used DNA tests to determine the parasites that caused the disease in the bighorns were biochemically identical to bacteria found in the domes-tic sheep they had mixed with. Transmission “likely occurred between the species on the range,” according to an abstract obtained by the AP.

“It wasn’t my research so I had no control over it.”

Those darn daughtersBy Kathy Mitchell & Marcy SugarCreators Syndicate, Inc.

DEAR ANNIE: I am a 52-year-old single male, never married. Ten months ago, I met the love of my life. “Cindy” is everything to me. She was widowed two years ago and has two adult daughters, one still at home. The dilemma is that the girls are very unhappy that Mom is dating me. Mind you, they’ve never met me. It’s just the idea that Mom is dating. Cindy told them I make her happy, while constantly reiterating that I am not a replacement for their father and never will be. I try to ignore this obstacle, but it bothers Cindy. I know she will never put her foot down and insist the girls accept me. She has sug-gested I come over for dessert on holidays, but the girls are against it, so I’ve yet to be included in any of their family get-togethers. I would have thought that after 10 months things would be a tad better. I would love to take all of them to dinner. I don’t want to force Cindy to choose between her daughters

and me, but I don’t want to lose her. Is it too soon for the girls to accept us? Shouldn’t they let their mom be happy? Please tell me what to do so I don’t blow this fantastic relation-ship. -- Walking on Eggshells DEAR EGGSHELLS: Ten months is not too soon. Many chil-dren of single parents resent when Mom or Dad becomes involved with someone new. It is up to Cindy to make it clear to her daughters that you are part of her life and insist that they be respectful of her choices. If she refuses to do that, your current situation will continue for as long as you are willing to tol-erate it. DEAR ANNIE: “Hopeless in Parenting,” who disapproves of her 17-year-old daughter staying overnight with eight other couples and no adult supervision, should be applauded and supported. Our daughter is also going to prom. She and her friends are straight-A, college bound teens. They have normal hormones, which makes it completely nuts to expect even well-behaved, decent kids to play in a candy store without tasting the candy. Our daughter understands this and frankly does not want to be put in that position. Tell “Hopeless” to stick to her guns -- no parents, no party. -- Mom of Three

For Friday, June 12, 2009 Your efforts to gain greater mate-rial security will be important to you in the year ahead, and one of the main reasons you’ll find suc-cess. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- When you truly believe in what you’re doing, chances for success improve greatly; on the other hand, pro-moting something that means little to you is likely to fall flat. It’s your choice. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Go with the flow instead of fighting a rising tide. Some changes will actually benefit you more than the standard procedure. Be willing to try something new. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Although you prefer calling the shots, a partnership arrangement will work out more advantageously; brainstorm ideas and strategies with others. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Once you focus on a certain objec-tive, you are not likely to settle for anything less. As a result, there are strong indications that you will end up accomplishing something quite impressive. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Don’t be reluctant to exert your authority when developments dictate. Those with whom you are sharing an activity will welcome

your steadying input and influence. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Being a stretch runner is your greatest asset, so don’t be dismayed if you get off to a slow start. When others begin to tire, you’ll hit your stride -- with energy to spare. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Dealing with others on a one-on-one basis will be far more pref-erable than coping with committees or large groups of people. Do your own thing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- In situations where you are trying to help another, everything will work out advantageously. Con-versely, the dividends are likely to be small when you’re only out for yourself. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Friends could be more receptive than usual when discussing your objectives, and they may even be willing to help realize your endeav-ors. Turn to them first before seek-ing help elsewhere. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Efforts expended on behalf of others will be greatly appreciated and applauded, even though you are not looking for recognition. It’s just who you are. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Go ahead and try to promote your latest idea or project, because you have the ability to sway others to your point of view. This is espe-cially true if the venture possesses exciting elements. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Relegate your unimportant interests or activities to the rear ranks. Work on situations or projects that are meaningful to your career or finan-cial position, because that’s where you’ll shine the most.

DEAR DR. GOTT: I have suf-fered with heartburn since I was in my teens. I’m now 61 years old and have taken antacids for years. About 10 years ago, my doctor recommended a technique to curb heartburn. I thought it was ridiculous and never tried it until about three months ago. I was in church and experienced heartburn coming on. I had to do something. So, out of desperation, I tried the technique my doctor recommended 10 years prior. It worked great, and I have not taken an antacid since. I simply use both hands to press just below my sternum and con-tinue pressing down to my stomach for about 30 seconds, three differ-ent times. I don’t know why the method works, but it does. When I feel heartburn coming on, I begin the technique, and before I know it, the symptoms disappear. Now I don’t have to use the technique as much as I did at the onset. I wish I had listened to my doctor 10 years ago, but I want to pass this hint along to help others.

DEAR READER: Heartburn is a painful, burning sensation in the esophagus that usually occurs just below the breastbone and may trav-el upward, causing a sour, bile taste in the mouth. It happens mainly when the contents of the stomach flow backward into the esopha-gus. Secondary causes include an excess of stomach acid or the pres-ence of a peptic ulcer. At one time or another, we all experience heartburn from eating fried, fatty or spicy foods. An over-the-counter antacid that neutralizes stomach acids is often all that is necessary for relief. More severe cases may require physician-pre-scribed medications. Most people with related condi-tions prefer to wear loose-fitting clothing. Your remedy works in reverse by applying pressure to the thorax. Perhaps you are, in effect, forcing the stomach contents back down where they belong, thus relieving the symptoms. I’m print-ing your “church remedy” so others might be able to benefit from it and report back to me. I’ll accumulate and publish their findings. In the interim, I suggest you avoid offending foods and exces-sive alcohol, discontinue or reduce possible smoking habits, and allow adequate time after meals before lying down.

NEW YORK (AP) — Fans of Sam Rockwell have often had to resort to limited glimpses of him in supporting, character-actor roles. In his new film, “Moon,” that’s far from a concern. Rockwell is very nearly the only actor in “Moon.” And there’s more than one of him. He plays astronaut Sam Bell, who’s living alone on the far side of the moon, finishing his three-year contract harvesting lunar rock for energy on Earth. When Bell’s health begins deteriorating, he starts seeing a younger version of himself around the base. That the movie is a showcase for the 40-year-old is somewhat inten-tional: For his first film, Duncan Jones wrote the part specifically for the actor, designing an “acting chal-lenge” meant to be too intriguing for Rockwell to turn down. “I just thought it was sacrilegious that there weren’t more roles where he was the leading man,” said Jones, the son of David Bowie.Rockwell has shown a talent for portraying characters on the mar-gins. His outsiders sometimes reside happily on the fringe — as in his early breakthrough perfor-mance as an “off-the-grid” loner in Tom DiCillo’s “Box of Moonlight” (1996) — or desperately want back in, as in his talk-show host-hitman in George Clooney’s “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” (2002). In an interview last month, Rockwell said his impulse for such roles comes from the ‘70s cinema of alienation — movies like “Taxi Driver” and “Midnight Cowboy.” “Those films are just constantly coming back to me,” said Rock-well. “That’s just the reason I act, is to sort of recreate those films in my mind, to do my own version of that.” After “Box of Moonlight,” he had memorable roles in “The Green Mile,” “Galaxy Quest,” “Charlie’s Angels” and “Matchstick Men,” opposite Nicolas Cage.Film critic Roger Ebert has called him “your go-to guy for weird-ness,” comparing him to Chris-

topher Walken. Rockwell, whose recent notable credits include “Frost/Nixon” and “The Assassina-tion of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford,” was always interest-ed in darker material, but began to notice he was mostly offered come-dies that sought to mine his oddball tendencies a bit too obviously. The little-seen and underrated “Snow Angels” of 2007 was a line in the sand for Rockwell — “not that anyone else noticed,” he notes — playing an estranged (and deranged) husband bent on winning back his wife. “I was getting some comedies and stuff — and I love comedy — but I just wanted to kind of make a statement, sort of an artistic statement,” said Rockwell. “You really kind of have to stick to your guns because people want you to do certain things.” Trying to get into the heads of the various Sam Bells, Rockwell says, was “like a Rubik’s Cube for actors. ... a fascinating Freudian game to play on yourself.” He was often acting only with a tennis ball or a piece of tape, small signifiers marking where the other Sam Bell would be. The maneuver-ing meant there was only so much room for improvising, but Rock-well would find “small windows” where he could insert a line, so long as his timing was right.In the course of an interview, Rockwell’s love of movies was eas-ily evident. As touchstones for the characters, he delved into David Cronenberg’s “Dead Ringers.” He expressed admiration for Michael Keaton in “Multiplicity.” And he said he “literally stole” from Dustin Hoffman’s Ratso Rizzo in “Mid-night Cowboy.” Rockwell considers “Moon” one of a handful of films — along with “Box of Moonlight,” “Confessions” and “Snow Angels” — where he made “a growth spurt creatively.”He’s also about to make a growth spurt commercially, co-starring in the “Iron Man” sequel, in which he plays Justin Hammer, the industri-alist rival of Tony Stark.

FliesContinued from C1

for another year. Some years it lasts a few days, some years it lasts a month, and some years it doesn’t really happen. When fishing salmonflies it’s usually best to use a 5- or 6-weight rod with a weight forward floating line to cast those big air resistant flies. You can also use a leader that is tapered to around 4X to roll them over accurately.

If you miss the salmon-fly hatch, don’t despair — other insects are hatching in large num-bers right now. Golden stoneflies begin hatching about two weeks later than the larger salmon-flies in most Western rivers, emerging between early July and mid-August. If conditions are right, adult salmonflies and golden stoneflies can be depositing eggs on the water’s surface at the same time. Golden stones are the most abun-dant of all of the large stoneflies, and their hatch duration lasts longer than

the salmonflies. Golden stones hatch for up to a month and sometimes even longer and they can be found in more riv-ers than Salmonflies. If you’re watching closely, Golden stones can be found hatching on the Logan from now through August and the fish love to snap them off the surface. They look very similar to salmonflies but their bodies are gold or yellowish.

The most overlooked local stonefly hatch of the year is the little yel-low sally stonefly, anoth-er smaller, yellow bodied stonefly. There is not a lot of fanfare surround-ing the hatch but it can be a great fun to get in on. The Blacksmith has a really good one. They hatch midstream so be watching for the action

there instead of along the edges for this stonefly. They hatch from July through September.

Little brown stoneflies and swalla stoneflies are spring emergers and are smaller olive/brown stoneflies. They can be found in big numbers in the rivers of Cache Val-ley. They hatch in May through June, just before the salmonflies and gold-ens hatch.

Fishing with large dry flies and watching the fish take them from the surface is the most exciting part of fishing with salmonflies and stoneflies; salmonflies have lots of different flies designed to imitate the adults, a couple of the best are the Improved Sofapillow or a Tim King Carborator fly tied with an orange body and a black egg sack. Stone-flies are best imitated with Stimulator style flies, just carry a few different sizes and body colors. It’s always best to observe what is going on the water’s surface and then use the method of trying to match the imitation to the natural as closely as possible in size, shape, and color (in that order.)

And don’t forget the mayflies and caddis flies that are hatching through-out the summer. May-flies; both PMD’s and BWO’s, have been hatch-ing for a long time and they fill the air above lots of the local rivers in the afternoons and evening time and caddis numbers are increasing every day through the summer. Parachute Adams style flies are perfect imita-tions for mayflies, just take a couple of sizes (16, 18, 20) and a few differ-ent body colors to match what you see. Light elk hair caddis flies are the perfect dry-fly imitation for most caddis adults, and the best time to fish them is just after the sun has set. Again, always use the size, shape, and

color method in picking out mayflies and caddis flies out of your box.

Be careful with the high water in some of the local rivers, wading those rivers can be really dangerous. If you get into more than a couple of feet of water it doesn’t take much water velocity to knock you off balance and wash you down-stream. Try to find some of the lower elevation rivers and tributaries that are clearing up and that is where the fly fishing is the best right now.

Less sea rise expected from melting

By Moises Velasquez-Manoff The Christian Science Monitor

The ice sheet sitting atop Antarctica is so vast, up to 3 miles (5 km) thick in some places, that it pushes earth’s crust thousands of feet down. If all that ice melted, it would raise sea levels globally by an estimated 230 feet (70 meters).

No one thinks that Antarctica will thaw completely anytime soon, of course, but scientists are increasingly worried by changes observed in just one area: the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS).

Until recently, scientists esti-mated that if the WAIS melted, sea levels worldwide would rise by some 16 feet. Now, using more refined data, a new study in the May 15 issue of the journal Science revises that number down to an average 11-foot sea level rise.

For decades, scientists have observed that while the Antarctica’s interior appears to have cooled, the outer regions — specifically the Antarctic Peninsula — have warmed. They attribute the changes to stronger circumpolar winds — and the fiercer winds, ulti-mately, to human impact on weather.

Shifting wildlife seems to corroborate the observed changes. Colder-climate pen-guins have retreated southward on the peninsula; species adapted to relatively warmer climes have advanced. Con-centrations of clear, cold water-loving phytoplankton, the basis of the Antarctic food chain, have also pushed Poleward.

In January, scientists writ-ing in Science argued that the warming extended beyond just the peninsula, and included the WAIS. That has alarming implications, they say. The WAIS rests on bedrock that’s partly below sea level. As a result, scientists think that it’s sensitive to changes in ocean temperature, and maybe prone to rapid melting.

Indeed, two studies reported in Nature in March conclude that the ice sheet has melted (and reformed) in the past relatively quickly. Several times between 3 and 5 million years ago, when temperatures were around 3 degrees C (5.4 degrees F.) higher than today and atmospheric CO2 was at 400 ppm, just above where we are now, the WAIS was a shal-low sea.

What does this mean for the two-thirds of humanity inhabit-ing coastal areas?

Previously, scientists esti-mated how much the WAIS would contribute to global sea level rise by taking the total amount of water frozen as ice and spreading it around the globe evenly. That meant a 16-

foot sea level rise worldwide.But a study published earlier

this year in the Science com-plicated that picture. The older calculations hadn’t included the following important fac-tors, wrote the authors:

1. The WAIS is so massive that it exerts a gravitational pull on the surrounding water. If it disappears, so does that pull. Nearby water, released from the gravity, will flow away. Regions farther away — like the Northern Hemisphere — will see an influx. The subsequent sea level rise there would be greater than what one might think by evenly spread-ing the WAIS’s meltwater around the globe.

2. If the glacier disap-pears, the Earth’s crust, now

depressed, will bounce back — what scientists call “isostatic rebound.” The rising bedrock would counteract sea level rise in the immediate region, and also push water elsewhere.

3. Finally, the WAIS’s dis-appearance could change the location of Earth’s rotational axis by some 500 meters (1600 feet). That, in turn, affects how and where water accumulates in the world’s oceans.

All in all, the authors esti-mated that some parts of the world would experience sea-level rises 25 percent greater than previous estimates sug-gested. Rather than a 16-foot increase, for example, Wash-ington, D.C., might find its seas 21 feet higher.

But the new study says that sea level rise actually will be much lower. The authors of this study also account for gravity, centrifugal force, and planetary elasticity. But they use more refined information on how much of the WAIS, exactly, is prone to melting.

“There are parts of the ice sheet which remain grounded and look relatively stable,” says Jonathan Bamber, a pro-fessor of physical geography at England’s University of Bristol and lead author on the study. “We’re saying that about one-third looks like it survives, or that it’s not vulnerable to this instability.”

If what can melt does, seas will rise 11 feet on average, not 16, they say.

But as in the previous study, the authors find that the east and west coasts of North America will see some of the greatest increases — perhaps 13 feet.
