Just six votes decided the District 9 seat on the St. Mary Parish School Board. Incumbent Bill McCarty received 706 votes, while his challenger, Jeff Trimm, re- ceived 700. Registrar of Voters Jolene Holcombe said results are not official until the voting machines are opened Friday and the results certified by the Board of Elections super- visors. The state’s Geaux Vote app indicates an unofficial voter turnout of 43.8 percent for the board election. However, she said, “most of the time totals don’t change because these are electronic machines.” Trimm said he congratu- lated McCarty Tuesday night, but will wait until the machines are open to con- cede the race. He added he would like to be there when that happens. He said he was told that there may have been a prob- lem with a voting machine at one of the Morgan City precincts. Jane Pilant, chief deputy of the St. Mary Clerk of Court, said one machine at Morgan City Junior High registered a system error. “As soon as it issued an er- ror, it was abandoned and a new machine was brought there,” Pilant said. The 11 votes cast on that machine were registered, she said. Pilant said provisional bal- lots are reviewed only in fed- eral elections, so they do not affect local elections. Holcombe said the law on- ly allows for a recount of ab- sentee ballots by mail. Be- cause the rest of the votes are recorded electronically there is nothing to recount, she added. Trimm said, “It was a good race. It was close. I enjoyed it, and I have all intentions of running again in four years.” McCarty said he would like to congratulate Trimm on “running a strong, clean race.” Also, “I’d like to thank my supporters in District 9 and I look forward to continuing to serve them. … I look forward to working with Dr. (Donald) Aguillard, the teachers and principals on making St. Mary Parish schools the best they can be,” McCarty said.

Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Hildreth said it is believed that the fire was ignited as a result of a ruptured hydraulic line on the fairly new vehicle. There were no injuries reported. Three of four St. Mary charter amendments fail Three of the four St. Mary Parish Home-Rule Charter amendments failed in Tues- day’s election, according to the Secretary of State’s web- site. Amendment No. 1 to change the term limits for the Parish Council was the only amendment to pass by a vote of 7,394 votes — 52.25 percent — to 47.75 percent, according to the website. The amendment will allow any council member elected after the effective date of the provision, who has repre- sented any council district for more than two and one- half terms, to serve three consecutive terms. The amendment will change the current rules that limit council members to two terms in a single district or as an at-large member repre- senting the entire parish. Under the current rules, council members could serve two terms representing a sin- gle district and then run for two terms as an at-large member or vice versa. The passage of Amend- ment No. 1 is a good thing that will allow council mem- bers to serve three consecu- tive terms regardless of whether they are at-large or single-member council mem- bers, St. Mary Parish Presi- dent Paul Naquin said. Parish Councilman Glen Hidalgo said he was very happy that Amendment No. 1 passed, which was the one he was pushing harder for. Naquin said if there is no change in the voting totals, Parish Amendment No. 4 to extend the term limit of the parish president from two terms to three terms will fail. According to the Secretary of State’s website, the vote end- ed in a tie with 7,010 “yes” votes and 7,010 “no” votes. Naquin was not planning to run for another term any- way, but wanted the term- limit extension to be passed for the next parish president in 2016, he said. “I’m disap- pointed in the term limits for the parish president because I think it takes about eight years to really get comfort- able in any one of these seats,” Naquin said. So much goes on in the parish with coastal erosion, flood insur- ance and other issues, he said. “A parish president has got to spend a lot of time for a part-time president,” Naquin said. “I spend at least 50 hours a week as a part-time parish president.” Naquin knew what he was running for and was not complaining about his position, he said. “I enjoyed it. I can assure you that,” Naquin said. Overall, Naquin was dis- appointed how voting on the parish amendments turned out with three of the four amendments appearing to have failed, he said. Amendment No. 2 that would have increased the Parish Council members’ compensation failed 60.7 percent to 39.3 percent while Amendment No. 4 that would have increased the Parish President’s compen- sation failed 54.99 percent to 45.01 percent. Regarding the rest of three amendments that failed, Hidalgo thinks this is a long time to go without changing the Parish Home- Rule Charter, he said. “The people spoke,” Hidalgo said. Many different factors went into the failure of three of the amendments, Hidalgo said. Parish Councilman Kevin Voisin said he knew the pay raise amendments for the council and parish president were going to die. However, Voisin was surprised that the parish president term limit amendment was that close to passing, he said. “I thought all four (amend- ments) would fail,” Voisin said.

LaBouve was the guest speaker at the St. Mary In- dustrial Group’s monthly luncheon meeting held at the Petroleum Club of Morgan City. He discussed the pro- posed half-cent sales tax election Dec. 6 to benefit the sheriff’s office. Former Sher- iff David Naquin pushed for a quarter-cent sales tax, which was the last push for a new revenue source for the sheriff’s office, LaBouve said. The sheriff’s office has been borrowing about $1.5 million each year “to try to make end’s meet year to year,” he said. The depart- ment is looking to bring back expenditures it had to cut due to budget constraints, he said. “We’d like to get all these things back into play so we don’t have to cut servic- es,” LaBouve said. “That’s the one thing that we’re try- ing to avoid because we want to make sure we meet the needs of all our families here in St. Mary Parish. “Our operating expenses are at its lowest point in the last five years,” LaBouve said. The sheriff is asking for the public’s support for the half-cent sales tax to solely benefit the St. Mary Parish Sheriff’s Office in order to cover the department’s defi- ciencies, LaBouve said. The department’s annual budget is $14 million, and the sales tax is expected to raise about $5 million each year in additional funds, he said. Seventy-three percent of the sheriff’s office budget goes to pay salaries and med- ical expenses of employees, LaBouve said. “Eight of the last 10 years we’ve had to borrow money,” LaBouve said. Since 1997, several federal and state mandates have been implemented, including the Prison Rape Elimination Act, LaBouve said. “With PREA, you have to have peo- ple with certain skill sets,” LaBouve said. The state has mandates re- lating to a work release pro- gram, he said. The sheriff’s office had to start adding more employees just to keep up with those programs, LaBouve said. The state is trying to get out of the jail business and place that responsibility on sheriff’s departments, LaBouve said. State officials will call the sheriff’s office on a weekly basis to see if the jail is over capacity, he said. “If we’re five over our maxi- mum count, they’ll come in and take five of our best in- mates,” LaBouve said. “We’ll call that basically our trustees that we want to put in a work release pro- gram,” he said. “They (the state) will take them so they can put them in a program.” The sheriff’s office is left with the sick inmates and trouble inmates when the state comes and takes in- mates out of the parish jail, he said. “Every time we lose these state inmates, our rev- enue sources go down,” he Continued on Page 2 ‘Operation Ghostbusters’ nets 110 arrests, $44K in drugs The St. Mary Parish Sher- iff’s Office Narcotics Division helped agencies from four parishes seize more than $44,000 worth of illegal drugs and make 110 arrests over a four-day period, St. Mary Parish Sheriff Mark Hebert said in a news re- lease.

said.The department’s revenue

sources come from sales tax-es, ad valorem taxes andfees, he said. “These differentthings are what are actuallyour revenue and those aredown by over $600,000 annu-ally,” LaBouve said. Medicalexpenses used to cost the de-partment about $7,000 for anemployee per year, but thatnumber has risen to $12,000per year, he said.

Fuels costs for the office’sfleet of vehicles has risen, go-ing from $1,700 per vehicle toabout $4,300 per vehicle,LaBouve said. “We used tospend about $790 on a carannually. … Our currentnumber is almost $1,800 percar now,” he said.

The department’s fleet cur-rently has 105 vehicles andincludes some more fuel-effi-cient, smaller vehicles,LaBouve said.

Most of the fleet is beingaged out with multiple vehi-cles having more than300,000 miles on them, hesaid. The sheriff ’s office has

decreased employment from210 employees to 170 em-ployees, he said. “We didn’tterminate anyone. We didn’tlay off people,” LaBouve said.Instead, the department justdid not replace people wholeft the sheriff ’s office, hesaid.

The office also recentlyclosed the jail on the seventhfloor of the St. Mary ParishCourthouse, he said. “We’dreally like to be back on thatseventh floor,” LaBouve said.The extra space could beused to house state inmatesalong with inmates the sher-iff ’s office arrests on a daily

basis, he said.New technology has helped

the department save money,he said. One example of us-ing technology to cut costs isthe ability now for deputiesto use a laptop computer intheir patrol cars, he said. Thelaptop computers allow offi-cers to type reports in theirpatrol vehicles while stayingin their assigned zones andturn the reports in at the endof their shifts, LaBouve said.

“That way they’re notcaught back at the office andcan respond faster to a call,”LaBouve said. Even in themidst of taking cost-saving

measures, the sheriff ’s officestill has to borrow moneyeach year, he said.

A sheriff is one of the fewelected offices to make thesheriff responsible for anydebts the office has upon hisdeparture from the office,which means the governmentcan take the sheriff ’s retire-ment to pay off that debt,LaBouve said. “That’s whywe push for things like thisbecause he doesn’t want to beresponsible for some majordebt trying to provide thoseservices,” LaBouve said.

By Abigail Van BurenDEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been

married for eight years. We have no childrenof our own, but he has an 18-year-old daugh-ter from a previous relationship who has beencoming over every other weekend and holi-days since she was 10. Even though she liveswith her mother, she has a dedicated roomthat’s packed to the gills with her clothes,games, toys, etc.

I would like to repurpose her room nowthat she is off to college. My husband says no.We don’t have a guest bedroom, so I feelstrongly that it makes no sense to keep herroom intact when we could use the extraspace. I have made many sacrifices as a step-mother over the years, and feel I deserve to fi-nally stretch out a bit and enjoy the extraspace. By the way, all the furniture in herroom happens to be mine, and her room usedto be my guest room before we got married.

My friends agree with me, but my husband

says he needs “time to ad-just.” I’m really upset andwould like an objectiveopinion. AM I being unrea-sonable or asking toomuch too soon? — FRUS-TRATED IN FLORIDA

DEAR FRUSTRATED:If you want peace andtranquility under yourroof, my advice is to slowdown and don’t jump thegun. Your husband ap-pears to be suffering froma form of empty nest anxi-ety right now. Let thisplay out for another yearor two, so he can see howlittle his daughter will beusing that room. It wouldalso be better for her notto feel that the minute she

left town you dismantled“her” room. If you’ll be pa-tient, and trust me on this,you’ll look like a saint. If youdon’t, you may come acrossas heavy-handed and be la-beled a wicked stepmother.

******DEAR ABBY: My husband

and I are friendly with ourneighbors. We’re all smokers,but they don’t smoke insideand we do.

It seems like they have de-cided that coming to ourhouse EVERY DAY to hangout is acceptable, which nor-mally wouldn’t be a problem.But they come in, sit on ourcouch and don’t say a word tous. Their eyes are glued totheir tablets or cellphones in-stead. They respond to ourattempts at conversationwith grunts, never lookingup from their entertainment.They’ll stay for an hour or so,then leave.

I have the feeling they’re

using our house as a“smoking room” so theywon’t have to stand in thecold or be away from theirentertainment. My hus-band is going to say some-thing soonb e c a u s ehe’s nothappy andour “hints”h a v e n ’ tbeen ac-k n o w l -edged. Isthis asrude as Ithink it is?— PUFF-ING MADIN MAINE

D E A RPUFFING MAD: Yes, it is.Although you and yourneighbors are all smokers, itappears you have little elsein common. You say yourhusband is going to saysomething “soon.” I recom-mend he speak up the nexttime these people show upand “suggest” that they leavetheir electronic devices athome. What boors!

LSU AgCenter open houseexplains home how-tos

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP)— Louis Fournet of Franklinsays he was thinking of mov-ing to control his allergies, butan LSU AgCenter open houseconvinced him he won’t haveto.

Fournet was among peopleattending the quarterly openhouse at LaHouse Home andLandscape Resource Center,according to an AgCenternews release. The open houseon Saturday focused on indoorair quality and safety features.

“I was thinking about mov-ing to the desert, but I got a lotof ideas here that are cheaperthan moving,” he said.

Extension housing special-ist Claudette Reichel toldFournet that reducing humidi-ty would help cut down thedust mites and molds thattrigger his allergies. “Dustmites cannot reproduce whenindoor humidity is below 50percent,” she said.

She showed Fournet fourdehumidifying systems at La-House. Two are portable andtwo are whole-home units.

LaHouse is open Mondaythrough Friday from 10 a.m.to 4:30 p.m. for self-guidedtours. The seasonal Saturdayopen houses accommodatepeople who can’t visit on aweekday.

Pete and Maureen Rucci, ofBaton Rouge, came to the openhouse for tips on handicapped-accessible building, termitecontrol and moisture.

The couple is interested inbuilding a home near San An-tonio, Texas.

“We’re interested in build-ing techniques to avoid prob-lems down the road and re-duce long-term costs andmaintenance,” Pete Ruccisaid.

LaHouse is built with uni-versal design features thatmake it an easy home to navi-gate for children, seniors orpeople with handicaps.

“You want to ensure conven-ient living in your homethroughout life, so you want tobuild universal design,” Re-ichel told the Ruccis. This in-cludes 4-foot clearances inhallways and around coun-ters, 3-foot interior doorways,curbless thresholds and show-er, and an accessible masterbedroom and bathroom on thefirst floor.

Reichel said she chose theindoor air quality and homesafety feature for the fall openhouse because with winter ap-proaching, people will bespending more time indoorsand there is a strong connec-tion between home and health.

My mother was 13 years old, the oldestchild in her family, the day the health de-partment nailed the quarantine notice onher front door.

It was late in the summer of 1951. Mymother’s younger sister, Cecelia, was justbeginning the eighth grade when she camehome from school with a high temperature,feeling very ill.

The next morning, her legs gave out asshe tried to get out of bed. By that evening,she was so weak she could barely move.

She’d contracted polio. At the time, no one knew how the polio

virus was spread. Many thought it spreadthrough swimming pools, so the pools wereshut down.

The public was in such a panic, in fact,that an ambulance driver refused to take“Cece” to the hospital for fear other pa-tients might become infected. Fortunately,my mother’s uncle had a car and he droveher.

The public had reason to worry. In 1952,America would have its worst bout with thevirus. More than 57,000 cases would be re-ported nationwide. Of those, 3,000 victimswould die and 21,000 would suffer perma-nent paralysis.

And so my mother’s home was quaran-tined for 14 days, the life of the virus. Noone was to leave the house or visit duringthat time. Only her father could leave to goto work.

Within two weeks, polio had ravagedCece’s body. Her arms and legs were in var-ious degrees of paralysis. She could barelylift her head. She was relocated to the D.T.Watson Home for Crippled Children inSewickley. Her long, painful rehabilitationwould just begin.

It would be one year before she couldmove back home. Her rehab would continuefor two years. She would need crutches for

the rest of her life. Had polio not been cured, say the authors

of “Freakonomics,” the United States wouldnow be caring for at least 250,000 long-term patients at an annual cost of $30 bil-lion. But we did cure it.

The March of Dimes mobilized millionsto raise money. A long line of researchers,including Dr. Jonas Salk, refused to acceptdefeat. Together, we won. On April 12,1955, almost one year after the trial ofSalk’s vaccine began, it was declared safeand effective.

It’s easy to look with clarity at eventsthat took place about 50 years ago, butharder to do so in current times - as Ebolais ravaging parts of West Africa and, in ourtransient, global economy, is a potentialthreat to other parts of the world.

And just as we addressed polio in theU.S., we need to come together to stop Ebo-la from becoming a growing threat.

Ebola knows no political party and all po-litical pandering is a huge waste of time.What we need are commonsense measuresthat stop the Ebola virus dead in its tracks.Sorry, but a travel ban on affected regionsneeds to happen. Politics needs to stop. Thegovernment has to get its act together. Andlet’s redirect Centers for Disease Controland Prevention funds away from frivolousprograms so we can create an Ebola vaccinethat is effective.

Do we really need the National Institutesof Health spending “$667,000 for a studyon the health benefits of rerun television,$1 million on the sexual proclivities of fruitflies, $600,000 on why chimpanzees throwtheir poop, $350,000 on the importance ofimagination while golfing, and $550,000 todetermine that heavy drinking in one’s 30scan lead to feelings of immaturity,” as re-ported by National Review?

Hey, we’re Americans. We came togetherto prevent polio. We mustcome together if we’re tohave any hopes of clampingdown on Ebola.

The filibuster is dead for nominees and isliving-dead for legislation; it exists, but un-der the precedent set by Harry Reid andSenate Democrats last year, it could beeliminated any time the majority wishes.Democrats are almost certain to do so nexttime they control the House of Representa-tives, so Republicans should go ahead andkill off the filibuster for good on day one.

When Harry Reid broke the Senate rulesto torpedo the filibuster for appointees lastyear, Republicans howled in protest. Bothsides made arguments that sounded princi-pled, but really advanced their own parti-san interests - we know that because lessthan a decade earlier an almost identicaldebate occurred, and in the interim is ap-peared Republicans and Democrats hadtraded scripts.

Harry Reid said winning that fight was“the most important thing I ever workedon” about the 2005 fight, when Reid wasthe filibuster ’s most vocal defender withflorid praise about the Founders and theConstitution. When he was asked if theSenate would ever consider such a moveagain, Reid said: “As long as I’m the leader,the answer is no.” But as soon as he had aDemocratic president and a Democraticmajority he did a backflip on the issue.

The result? The federal judiciary is nowstacked with liberal activist judges whohave seized control of ever larger areas ofpublic policy. Reid’s power grab meansthere is a vestigial filibuster for SupremeCourt nominees and for legislation, but itnow exists solely at the pleasure of the ma-jority, which can at any time invoke Reid’sprocedure to change the rules and end thefilibuster completely.

Therefore every bill that is “blocked” byfilibuster fails only with the tacit agree-

ment of the majority not to change the rule.Thus the Senate has already been trans-formed into a simple majority-rule body.Retiring Democrat Carl Levin, one of justthree Democrats who voted against Reid’srules change, said this at the time:

“Let us not kid ourselves. The fact thatwe changed the rules today just to apply tojudges and executive nominations does notmean the same precedent won’t be used to-morrow or the next year or the year after toprovide for the end of a filibuster on legis-lation, on bills that are before us, and onamendments.”

He was exactly right. It is inevitable. Sodo it now.

Kill the filibuster and pass serious billsto repeal Obamacare, unlock American en-ergy resources, cut and reform taxes, cutspending, reform entitlement programs,and limit intrusive federal regulations. Putnew bills on President Obama’s desk everyday, bills that show real vision and that canbe sold to the American public.

Bills that land on the president’s deskwill command the attention of media andthe people - even if vetoed - in a way billsthat die a quiet death by filibuster will not.And many will be so popular that PresidentObama will feel compelled to sign them, asPresident Clinton signed welfare reformonly after vetoing it twice.

If Republicans do not kill the filibuster,on the other hand, they may quickly re-treat from even attempting major legisla-tion using Democratic obstructionism as anexcuse for continued gridlock.

It’s a bad excuse. The filibuster is al-ready dead, even if not yet officially. So putit out of its misery on day one and get busywith the serious work of shrinking govern-ment.

A beautiful red tsunami swept across Ameri-ca Tuesday night.

Liberal pollsters and liberal pundits on TVrefused to see the Republican wave coming andstill can’t believe it came.

But the S.S. Obama and its cargo of bad ideassank like a rock, dragging Captain Harry Reidand a motley crew of hopeful Democrat officeseekers with it to the bottom.

Republican candidates won from sea to shin-ing sea. By January, the GOP could hold a 54-seat majority in the Senate.

The GOP also grew its majority in the Houseby at least 12 seats and kicked butt in most ofthe 36 governors’ races, pulling upsets in blueliberal places like Massachusetts, Marylandand Illinois.

Republican Party bosses deserve three cheersand full credit for their mid-term election strat-egy, their passion and their hard work. Theiranti-Obama campaign worked well.

But I have some advice for the GOP as itmakes plans to take control of Congress in 2015and looks toward winning the presidential elec-tion of 2016 - when an anti-Obama strategywon’t work.

The first thing the party has to do is remem-ber what happened the last time it was in con-trol of Congress, during the G.W. Bush years.

Republicans blew it. And many of them werequickly booted out of office by voters, mainly forbetraying their conservative faith and imper-sonating a bunch of Big Government Democ-rats.

Republicans in Congress during the 2000searned the nickname “Democrat Lite” for goodreason. It was accurate.

They spent federal money like drunken liber-als and President Bush didn’t veto a singlespending bill in eight years.

Starting in January, and continuing for thenext two years, the GOP must now provide realleadership, stick to conservative principles andshow some guts.

Republicans in Congress have got to serious-

ly start working on passing tax reform, health-care reform and immigration reform. They’vealso got to start reversing the growth of the fed-eral government, not just slowing its growth.

And if Republicans are going to start throw-ing around my father’s name, they need to un-derstand what Ronald Reagan understoodabout playing and winning the game of politicsin Washington.

He looked at politics in DC like a footballgame. He understood you can’t always throwHail Mary passes and have them caught in theend zone for a touchdown.

You usually have to move the ball 10 yards ata time. It may take longer than some peoplewant, but the ultimate goal is the same — scor-ing that winning TD.

The Berlin Wall didn’t come down in 1982. Itcame down in 1989 and it took a series of 10-yard gains to bring us that victory.

Now that they’ll be in charge of Congress, Re-publicans have the ability to get things done.They can force the whole Congress to vote onthe hundreds of spending and jobs bills that arestuck under Harry Reid’s desk.

The Republican Party has another chance toshow it can govern - maybe its last.

This time its members can’t get caught in thelegislative weeds or forget the reasons voterssent them to DC.

They have to move forward aggressively withsensible conservative, small-government poli-cies. They have to fix the messes Obama, Reid& Co. have left us with.

And Republicans also have to make us feelproud again to be Americans.

In a real sense the GOP has to become acheerleader for America. Americans are lookingfor a cheerleader. They want to feel good againabout themselves and their country.

On Tuesday voters gave Republicans a sec-ond chance to cheerlead and lead.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP)— Blake Sims’ most memo-rable moment at LSU’s TigerStadium came when he wasexuberantly celebrating thewinning touchdown twoyears ago from the sidelines.

No. 4 Alabama’s quarter-back is hoping to build morehappy memories on the fieldSaturday night against the14th-ranked Tigers, some ofthem presumably involvingprolific receiver Amari Coop-er.

The Crimson Tide’s pass-ing duo face probably theirbiggest test of the season inthe LSU secondary. Ditto forthe LSU defensive backs.

The Tigers (7-2, 3-2 South-eastern Conference) havescarcely given up more pass-ing yards than Cooper is pro-ducing on average, settingup a major confrontation in arivalry known more for pun-ishing runners and tena-cious defenses.

“Our confidence level ispretty high,” LSU corner-back Jalen Collins said. “Westepped it up the past couplegames and kind of shut downthe Ole Miss offense, sowe’re feeling great.”

So are Sims and Cooper af-ter a record-setting connec-tion against Tennessee in an-other challenging road envi-ronment.

Sims was a bystander onthe last visit for Alabama (7-1, 4-1). That’s when he wascaptured celebrating T.J. Yel-don’s winning touchdowncatch from starter AJ Mc-

Carron.Then a backup, Sims’ ani-

mated celebration includedturning toward the fans andpointing at his ring finger.

“I looked down and therewas a camera right there inmy face and I was like, ‘Man,I’m about to get in trouble,’”Sims said, smiling.

He’ll be in the spotlight forwhat he does between thewhite lines this trip.

LSU is leading the nationin pass defense efficiency,giving up just 158.4 yardsper game and six passingtouchdowns.

Cooper is the nation’s No.2 receiver, averaging 141.5yards with nine touchdowncatches. He had a school-record 224 receiving yards inthe Tide’s last game againstthe Volunteers.

Only Arkansas has man-aged to shut Cooper down,holding him to two catchesand 22 yards on a day whenAlabama’s offense managedseason-lows of 227 yards and14 points. The team thatbeat Alabama, Mississippi,is the only other defense tohold him under 100 yards(91 on nine catches).

“He’s awfully smooth,”LSU coach Les Miles said.“If you look at that receiverthat has real speed and ballskills and can run the route,it’s a talented man.”

LSU’s secondary led byTre’Davious White, RonaldMartin, Jamal Adams andJalen Collins has containedNo. 12 Mississippi’s Bo Wal-

lace and Kentucky’s PatrickTowles in its past two games.

Only Auburn’s Nick Mar-shall and Mississippi State’sDak Prescott — both ofwhom are drawing HeismanTrophy buzz — have topped200 yards against the Tigers.Both also ran for 100-plusyards.

“They play a lot of man toman and they’ve got verygood players,” Alabamacoach Nick Saban said.“They’re very athletic.They’ve got nice-sized cor-ners. They like to pressure.The combination of pressureand the man to man has af-fected people’s ability tohave any kind of efficiency inthe passing game. Obviouslyit’s going to be important forus to be able to do that, be-cause I don’t think you can

CINCINNATI (AP) —More than halfway throughthe season, the AFC North’sstandings start with Cleve-land.

Yes, the Browns. The teamthat’s been the division’sdoormat for years. The onethat changes coaches andquarterbacks and can’t seemto get anywhere.

With a dominating per-formance, Cleveland suggest-ed that might be changing.The Browns moved into afirst-place tie with Pitts-burgh by beating the Cincin-nati Bengals 24-3 on Thurs-day night, extending theirbest start in 20 years.

Maybe these aren’t the

Browns (6-3) that everyonehas come to expect.

“We’re not the old Cleve-land Browns,” safety DonteWhitner said. “We under-stand everybody wants to putthat label on us, but we worktoo hard and have too muchcharacter and talent on thisfootball team to believe whatoutside people think of us.

“Right now, we’re No. 1 inour division.”

And the Bengals (5-3-1)are a prime-time mess.Again. They lost a Sundaynight game in New England43-17 earlier this season.They were primed to provethemselves to a national au-dience. All they did was show

they can’t handle the atten-tion.

“This one has me speech-less,” receiver A.J. Greensaid.

While the Bengals try tofind the words to describe yetanother meltdown, theBrowns came away in the un-accustomed role of having toavoid getting giddy over be-ing in first place.

“It doesn’t matter,” quar-terback Brian Hoyer said.“There’s seven more games togo. I know speaking for my-self, the meaningful gamescome at the end of Novemberand in December. That’ssomething this organizationhasn’t had in a long time.”

Things learned from amost lopsided matchup ofOhio’s teams:

ONE FOR THE AGES:There’s no understating whatthis one meant to Cleveland.The Browns had droppedtheir last 17 road gamesagainst AFC North teams.Their last such win came onSept. 28, 2008, a 20-12 victo-ry in Cincinnati. This onewas Cleveland’s most lop-sided victory in Cincinnatisince a 34-0 win in 1987 withstrike replacement players.

“A huge boost for ourguys,” coach Mike Pettinesaid. “Just look at thestreaks we ended. Not manypeople gave us a chance.”

ON THE RUN: TheBrowns pulled it off by get-ting their running game to-gether. They’d run for a totalof only 158 yards in the lastthree games combined, aver-aging 1.9 yards per carry.Against Cincinnati’s strug-gling defense, they piled up170 yards, with TerranceWest picking up 94 yards on26 carries to lead the way.

HADEN VS GREEN ISNO CONTEST: CornerbackJoe Haden got the better ofGreen again, holding him tothree harmless catches for 23yards. His longest receptionwent for only 11 yards. Whilemuch of it was the result ofAndy Dalton being off-targetall night, Haden never let theBengals’ top receiver getopen. In their last threegames, Green has been heldto a total of 12 catches for 81yards.

DALTON 2.0: Yes, that wasDalton’s passer rating forThursday night — 2.0. Hecompleted 10 of 33 for 86yards with three intercep-tions and two sacks. He wasoff-target all night, histhrows sailing on a cold,breezy night. Asked whoshould get the blame for an-other horrid offensive show-ing, Dalton answered imme-diately.

“I should,” he said. “And Ideserve it. It all starts withme. It all goes through thequarterback.”

PRIME-TIME BUSTS: TheBengals have a history offalling apart on the big stageand in the postseason. Theyhaven’t won a playoff gamesince the 1990 season, tied

for the sixth-longest streak offutility in NFL history.They’ve reached the playoffseach of the last three seasonsand lost in the first round.They’re also horrid in primetime, going 18-41 in thosebig-stage games, includingthat drubbing in New Eng-land earlier this season. Un-til they show up when it mat-ters, they’re not going to betaken seriously as a champi-onship contender.

“It does confound me,”coach Marvin Lewis said.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C.(AP) — Clemson found itselfmired in a tight gameagainst the one opponent italways seems to blow out.

“We just need one guy tomake a play and get thisthing rolling,” offensive coor-dinator Chad Morris said.

Artavis Scott took care ofthat.

The freshman receivertook a touch pass from ColeStoudt 68 yards for the go-ahead touchdown with 10:53left, and that helped the No.19 Tigers pull away to beatWake Forest 34-20 on Thurs-day night.

Stoudt finished 27 of 42 for282 yards with three touch-downs — two to Scott, one toWayne Gallman — and Gall-man added a late rushingscore to help the Tigers (7-2,6-1 Atlantic Coast Confer-ence, No. 21 CFP) win theirsixth straight.

“We’ve got three (games)left and we need to be ourbest in the month of Novem-ber,” coach Dabo Swinneysaid. “That’s when good

teams kind of separate fromthe pack.”

John Wolford was 11 of 29with two touchdown passesto Cam Serigne, covering 4and 14 yards, for Wake For-est (2-7, 0-5).

Mike Weaver tied it twicewith field goals, including a31-yarder that made it 20-allwith 11:08 left.

On Clemson’s next play,Scott came in motion whileStoudt took the snap andtapped it forward. The fresh-man caught it and weavedthrough the right side andinto the end zone.

“It was so big just to getthat monkey off our back,”Scott said. “I feel people havebeen nagging us, and it feltgreat to just go out there andget stuff done.”

Clemson’s No. 2-ranked de-fense forced a three-and-outand Gallman made it a two-score game for the first timewith his touchdown run with6:36 left.

The Tigers outgainedWake Forest 427-119. TheDemon Deacons, who have

the worst rushing offense inthe Bowl Subdivision, man-aged just 7 yards on theground — Wolford wassacked five times — whilelosing their fifth in a row.

“Every time we play anACC-level defense, we justcannot run the ball,” WakeForest coach Dave Clawsonsaid. “We just get over-whelmed up front.”

Gallman rushed for 106yards — his second straight100-yard outing — and Scotthad 122 yards receiving.

“You saw the explosivenessback in our offense that wehadn’t had,” Swinney said.“They’re kind of growing upand blossoming right beforeour eyes.”

Stoudt went the distanceunder center for the Tigerswhile injured freshman De-shaun Watson sat out histhird straight game with abroken bone in his throwinghand.

Watson was in uniformand spent most of the nightwearing an earpiece afterSwinney said earlier in theweek that he could play butprobably wouldn’t unlessClemson needed him.

Swinney said he ap-proached Watson about pos-sibly playing in the thirdquarter after Stoudt tweakedhis left shoulder, and thefreshman said he was readybefore Stoudt “gutted it out.”

The plan is for Watson tostart next week againstGeorgia Tech.

“Our goal was to try to notplay him if we could,” Swin-ney said. “He’ll be ready to gocome Monday.”

Clemson, a three-touch-down favorite, had beatenWake Forest by at least 20points four times since 2008but at no point did this oneseem nearly that easy.

“Proud that our guys bat-tled. Proud that we were inposition to win that game inthe fourth quarter,” Clawson

said. “They made the plays towin the game. And we didn’tmake plays that we had achance to make that couldhave won the game for us.”

The Demon Deacons, don-ning shiny new gold-chromehelmets, kept things inter-esting during a largely dis-jointed night in which eachteam essentially gifted atouchdown to the other onewith a special-teams miscue.

“It was a weird game,”Swinney said.

The first half ended on ahands-to-the-face penalty onClemson on the final snap.That gave Wake Forest a freeplay, and the Demon Deaconsturned into Weaver’s career-long 50-yard field goal thattied it at 17.

Wolford’s first touchdownpass to Serigne, covering 4yards, came four plays afterthe quarterback caught a 24-yard pass on a trick play.Those two hooked up againfrom 14 yards out afterClemson’s Matt Humphriesmuffed a wind-blown puntdeep inside Tigers territory.

Two of Stoudt’s TD passescame before halftime, withhis 18-yarder to Gallmancoming after Wake Forestpunter Alex Kinal fielded along snap with his knee onthe turf at his own 23. Hisfirst score to Scott covered 4yards, came with 27 secondsbefore the break and gavethe Tigers a 17-14 lead thatdisappeared after TavarisBarnes’ untimely personal-foul flag.

Ammon Lakip kicked twofield goals, including a 39-yarder into a stiff wind onthe opening drive of the sec-ond half to give Clemson a20-17 lead.

Browns move into 1st with 24-3 win over Bengals

No. 19 Clemson beat Wake 38-23

Grambling posts7th straight win

ITTA BENA, Miss. (AP) —Johnathan Williams threwthree second-quarter touch-down passes and GramblingState rallied to beat Missis-sippi Valley State 38-23 onThursday night for its sev-enth straight victory.

The game was interruptedbriefly late in the secondquarter when the fieldsprinklers went off.

Williams was 19 of 32 for382 yards for the Tigers (7-3, 7-0 Southwestern AthleticConference). He also hadseven carries for 33 yardsand a touchdown, a 10-yarder in the fourth quarter.

In the second quarter,Williams threw scoringpasses of 11 yards to ChadWilliams, 35 yards to VerlonHunter and 30 yards to An-thony McGhee. Hunter hadfour catches for 131 yards,and McGhee had three for112 yards.

Quarterback QuantaviusPeterson had 10-and 1-yardscoring runs in the firstquarter to give MississippiValley State (2-8, 1-7) a 14-0lead. Peterson also threw a7-yard touchdown pass toJoshua Rice to cut it to 28-23 early in the fourth quar-ter.

For LSU defenders, it’s achange-up from recent meet-ings with Alabama’s offense.The Tide still has a strongbackfield led by Yeldon andDerrick Henry, but first-yearoffensive coordinator LaneKiffin has found ways to getthe ball in Cooper’s handsearly and often. He caughtan 80-yard touchdown on Al-abama’s first play fromscrimmage against Ten-nessee and added a 41-yardTD catch a few minutes lat-er, a fairly effective way ofquieting a hostile crowd.

LSU’s defensive backs arelooking forward to the chal-lenge.

“What DB wouldn’t wantto go up against a teamthat’s throwing it more?”Collins said. “It’s always anhonor to go out there andplay but this is a really biggame for us so I’m excited.”

Space heaters chase away thechills

Simply heating a room isn’tenough for some people, Con-sumer Reports notes. You’ll findspace heaters disguised as minia-ture fireplaces and radiators, andmany with promises to trim yourutility bill in the bargain.

But speedy heating, safety andeven quietness are what mattermost to shoppers, according tocomments on Consumer Reports’Facebook page and on Twitter.Models that topped its tests meetthose needs for as little as $40.

Consumer Reports’ test find-ings include the following:

— High style, including“flames.” Crane’s EE80750, $90,and the larger Heat Surge Roll-n-Glow EV.21, $400, combine quickroom heating with a digital flamedisplay.

— Quick comfort — and someslowpokes. Suppose you valueinstant warmth for yourself morethan you do for an entire room —or, say, you use a space heater atyour desk in a chilly office. Con-sumer Reports tests spot-heatingspeed using a test dummy ladenwith heat sensors. The smallDyson AM05, $400, and VornadoTVH500, $160, were among thosethat aced that test. But speedyspot heating was a challenge forcertain models.

HOW TO SHOP FOR ASPACE HEATER

— Check the warranty. Vorna-do’s small TVH500 and AVH2,$110, have a five-year warranty;most brands offer warranties ofjust one to three years. That extracoverage could come in handybased on Consumer Reports’ userreviews, which cite lots of break-downs for both models. But thereviews also praise Vornado’squick and attentive customerservice.

— Don’t trust savings claims.Both Vornados are among modelsthat manufacturers claim cutheating costs. But because elec-tricity is the priciest kind of heat-ing, no space heater can trim yourbill unless you turn down the heatelsewhere in the house — an

approach known as zone heating.Instead, have your house checkedby a professional, who might sug-gest adding insulation, especiallyin the attic floor and any crawlspace, to help retain heat in everyroom of your house.

— Look for smart features.Dyson’s slim AM05 can be angledback or forward and, like manymodels, has multiple speeds. Top-mounted controls, as on the smallVornados, are easy to reach with-out bending or tipping back theheater.

PLAY IT SAFEEvery space heater Consumer

Reports tested has a switch thatshuts it off if it tips or overheats.Yet space heaters still account forroughly one-third of all homeheating fires and more than 80percent of associated deaths. Andthough many were less hot to thetouch and have plastic gratesrather than metal ones, burns tohands — particularly among kids— remain common. Here’s how tokeep warm with less risk:

— Keep heaters away fromflammable items. Be sure thatpillows, bedding, furniture,drapes, newspapers and otherflammables are at least 3 feetfrom any space heater.

— Ditch the extension cord. Alltested models have cords at least6 feet long. Manufacturers warnagainst using an extension cordbecause you might trip over it. Anextension cord can also raise therisk of a fire, especially if it’s wornor its gauge isn’t thick enough toproperly power the heater.

— Use fueled heaters outdoors.In addition to emitting harmfulfumes, propane and keroseneheaters tend to get much hotterthan the plug-in heaters in Con-sumer Reports’ Ratings. Use themonly on an open porch or in anoth-er well-ventilated outdoor area. Asafer bet during a blackout:Power a heater or your home’sheating system with a home gen-erator.

Phytonutrients add colorto a healthful diet

DEAR DOCTOR K:You’ve mentioned phytonu-trients in a few recentcolumns. What are they?And what can they do forour health?

DEAR READER: Let’sbegin by breaking “phy-tonutrients” into its twoparts. First, “nutrients.”These are chemicals in ourenvironment that we needto get inside our body, usu-ally through eating foodsthat contain them. Nutri-ents are a necessary part ofour body chemistry. Indeed,many are necessary for thelife of most living things.

Nutrients include carbo-hydrates, proteins and fats.They also include metals —such as iron, copper, iodineand zinc — and vitamins.I’d call oxygen and waternutrients, too.

Now to “phyto.” The wordcomes from the Greek wordfor “plant.” And that’s pri-marily where you can findphytonutrients — in plantfoods such as fruits, vegeta-bles, whole grains, driedbeans and nuts. These nat-ural compounds give plantstheir color, flavor, smell andtexture.

Phytonutrients are pow-erful and healthy sub-stances to include in yourdiet. There is growing evi-dence that they play a cru-cial role in helping to main-tain human health and pre-vent a number of diseases,such as macular degenera-tion and some cancers.

There are as many as2,000 known phytonutri-ents. Some of the morewell-known phytonutrientsare isoflavones (in soy); lig-nans (in flaxseed and wholegrains); carotenoids, such

as beta-carotene (in carrotsand dark, leafy greens),lutein and lycopene (inbrightly colored fruits andvegetables); and flavonoids(in red-blue tinted fruits).

On my website, AskDoc-torK.com, I’ve put a tablelisting additional types ofphytonutrients, foods youcan find them in and theirhealth benefits.

Choosing colorful foods(M&Ms don’t count) helpsensure that you get asmany phytonutrients aspossible. Typically, thedeeper the color, the morephytonutrients present inthe food. Notable exceptionsare cauliflower, garlic andonions, and whole grains,which contain plenty ofthese healthful substances.

The growing interest inphytonutrients has createda vast supply of supple-ments lining store shelves.

But in general, a pill can’tdo what diet can. Gettingyour phytonutrients fromplant-based foods ensuresthat you’ll get a variety ofnutrients that work welltogether. For example, asingle serving of vegetablesmay provide more than 100different phytonutrients.The crucial interaction ofthese phytonutrients isgenerally lost when you’regetting only one or two sub-stances in a pill.

To maximize your intakeof phytonutrients:

— Eat phytonutrient-richfoods frequently throughoutthe day. This helps keepblood levels of these compo-nents constant and ulti-mately more effective.

— Eat at least five tonine servings a day of fruitsand vegetables.

— Create a meal aroundvegetables and fruits. Fill

half your plate with color.— Savor the skins of the

fruits and vegetables youeat, assuming you like thetaste. The skins often arerich in phytonutrients.

— Regularly include awide array of whole grainsin your diet.

— Cook your vegetables ifthat’s how you prefer to eatthem. Most phytonutrientsare heat-stable.

ALBUQUERQUE,N.M. (AP) — The spacetourism company thatsuffered a tragic set-back when its experi-mental rocket-poweredspaceship broke apartover the Californiadesert could resumetest flights as early asnext summer if it canfinish building areplacement craft, itsCEO says.

The sleek compositeshell and tail section ofthe new craft are sit-ting inside the compa-

ny’s manufacturingfacility in Mojave, Cali-fornia.

After more than twoyears of work, it’sbeginning to look like aspaceship, but VirginGalactic CEO GeorgeWhitesides said there’smuch more to be done,from relatively simplethings such asinstalling windows tothe more complex fit-ting of flight controlsand other wiring.

The ship — dubbedSpaceShipTwo Serial

No. 2 — will replaceone that was destroyedlast week after itsfeathering system thatcontrols descentdeployed prematurelyand aerodynamicforces ripped it apart,killing the co-pilot andseriously injuring thepilot.

In the wake of theaccident, workers havefocused on building thenew ship.

“That’s providedsome solace to all of us,and I think there’s sort

of a therapeutic benefitto folks to be able toput their energies intoconstructive work,”Whitesides told TheAssociated Press in atelephone interviewWednesday.

He said the companywill be able to continueflying its mother ship— the much larger jet-powered plane thatlaunches the rocketship at high altitudes— while federal inves-tigators look into thecause of the deadlycrash with the coopera-tion of the company.

It’s possible that testflights for the nextspaceship could beginwithin six months,before the investiga-tion is expected to con-clude, Whitesides said.

Scaled Composites,which is developing thespacecraft for VirginGalactic, has an exper-imental permit fromthe Federal AviationAdministration to testthe crafts. Just lastmonth, the companyhad received approvalfrom the agency toresume rocket-poweredflights.

When the new shipis ready next year, theFAA said it will con-duct a more extensivereview to ensure what-ever caused last week’smishap has beenaddressed before allow-

ing test flights toresume.

Speculation contin-ues about how far theaccident will push backthe day when VirginGalactic’s paying cus-tomers can routinelyrocket dozens of milesfrom a $219 millionspaceport in the NewMexico desert towardthe edge of space for afleeting feeling ofweightlessness and abreathtaking view.

Whitesides said theaccident has beentough on many levels,but he refused to see itas a roadblock and saidthe company does nothave to start fromscratch.

“There was no ques-tion it was a tragic set-

back, but it’s one fromwhich we can recover,”he said. “With SerialNo. 2, we’ll be puttinga stronger, even bettership into initial com-mercial service and Ithink we’ll be able toget back into testflights soon and carryforward.”

Virgin Galactic hashopes of one day beingable to manufacture atleast one new ship ayear. It envisionsflights with six passen-gers climbing morethan 62 miles aboveEarth.

Seats sell for$250,000 and the com-pany says it hasbooked passengersincluding JustinBieber, Ashton Kutcher

and Russell Brand. Afew more passengerssigned on this week,Whitesides said.

CEO: Virgin Galactic looks to resume tests in 2015

Palo Alto Networkshas discovered a newform of malware thatmay have affectedhundreds of thou-sands of Apple mobiledevice users, largelyin China.

The cybersecurityprovider has namedthe malware Wire-Lurker and said itmonitors devices con-nected by a USB cableto an infected comput-er and installs mali-cious applicationsonto the device. Themalware steals a vari-ety of informationfrom mobile devices,but the goal of its cre-ator isn’t clear yet.

Palo Alto Networkssaid that while themalware allows anattacker to collect“significant amountsof information from alarge number of Chi-nese iOS and Mac OSsystems,” none of itpoints to a particularmotive.

The malware is“unlike anythingwe’ve ever seen” interms of malware tar-geting Apple’s iOS andOS X systems, saidRyan Olson, a PaloAlto Networks intelli-gence director.

“The techniques inuse suggest that badactors are getting

more sophisticatedwhen it comes toexploiting some of theworld’s best-knowndesktop and mobileplatforms,” Olson saidin a statement fromthe company.

Palo Alto Networkssaid late Wednesdaythat the malware isspreading throughapplications down-loaded from MaiyadiApp Store, a third-party Mac applica-tions store in China. Atotal of 467 infectedapplications weredownloaded morethan 356,000 timesover the past sixmonths.

Taking credit for killing bin Laden sparks debateWASHINGTON (AP) —

Some special operationsservice members and vet-erans are unhappy thatone of their own has takencredit publicly for killingOsama bin Laden. Otherssay they have gotten usedto the idea that theirbrethren might break thecode of silence and seek toprofit from their deeds.

That internal debategained intensity this weekwhen retired Navy SEALRobert O’Neill acknowl-edged that he had firedtwo rounds into the fore-head of the al-Qaidaleader during the 2011raid on his secret com-pound in Pakistan. O’Neillsays more and more peoplewere becoming aware ofhis role and that his namewas bound to become pub-lic anyway.

O’Neill had recountedhis version of the bin

Laden raid in February2013 to Esquire magazine,which identified him onlyas “the shooter.” In a storyThursday, The WashingtonPost identified him byname as he describedshooting the leader of theterrorist group behind theattacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

One current and one for-mer SEAL confirmed toThe Associated Press thatO’Neill was long known tohave killed bin Laden. De-fense Department officialsconfirmed that O’Neill wasa member of SEAL TeamSix and was part of theraid, but they said theycould not confirm whofired the fatal shot, notingthat other SEALs on themission also fired at binLaden.

If O’Neill discloses clas-sified information duringthe interviews he could besubject to an investigation

or action by the JusticeDepartment, the DefenseDepartment officials said.They spoke on condition ofanonymity because theywere not authorized to dis-cuss the matter by name.

O’Neill told the Postthat shots also were firedby two other SEAL teammembers, including MattBissonnette, who de-scribed the raid somewhatdifferently in his book “NoEasy Day.” His lawyer saidBissonnette is under feder-al criminal investigationover whether he disclosedclassified information inthe book, which he did notvet with the military. Inthe Esquire piece, O’Neillmakes no mention of Bis-sonnette shooting binLaden.

Well before the Post in-terview, O’Neill discussedhis role in the raid duringa private meeting with rel-

atives of victims of the9/11 attack on New York’sWorld Trade Center beforethe recent opening of theNational Sept. 11 Memori-al Museum. He donatedthe shirt he was wearingin the operation, which isnow on display there.

O’Neill is scheduled tobe featured in lengthy seg-ments next week on FoxNews. He told the Post hedecided to go public be-cause he feared his identi-ty was going to be leakedby others. Indeed, hisname appeared Monday onthe website SOFREP,which is operated by for-mer special operationstroops.

The actions of bothO’Neill and Bissonnettehave drawn scorn fromsome of their colleagues.In an Oct. 31 open letter,Rear Adm. Brian Losey,who commands the Naval

Special Warfare Group,and Force Master ChiefMichael Magaraci, the topnoncommissioned officer ofthe group, urged SEALs tolower their public profile.Their comments werewidely perceived as beingaimed at O’Neill and Bis-sonnette.

“At Naval Special War-fare’s core is the SEALethos,” the letter says. “Acritical tenant of our ethosis ‘I do not advertise thenature of my work, norseek recognition for my ac-tions.’”

The letter added, “We donot abide willful or selfishdisregard for our core val-ues in return for public no-toriety or financial gain.”

Debra Burlingame,whose brother CharlesBurlingame was the pilotof the hijacked plane thatcrashed into the Pentagon,attended the 9/11 museum

ceremony. She saidO’Neill, whose name wasnot divulged at the event,offered the families clarityon conflicting informationthey had received aboutthe raid.

She said she didn’t havean opinion about whetherSEALs should disclose in-formation about theirdeeds. “Whatever that(SEALs’) ethos is, is be-tween the SEALS,” shesaid. “The 9/11 familiesare the beneficiaries of anyrules he might have bro-ken or whatever lines hemight have crossed.”

“He went through themission in really in greatdetail. All that informationwas very helpful to me be-cause this is a figure in aterror organization thathas loomed large in ourlives,” she said, addingthat she listened to him sointently that the 9/11 com-memorative coin she wasclasping tightly in herhand left a bruise.

Rick Woolard, a formerSEAL team commanderwho previously urged hiscomrades to avoid dis-cussing recent operations,said active-duty SEALsare “pretty much very dis-appointed and I’d have tosay angry with guys whohave used their deeds andthose of their companionsfor personal gain.”

“No Easy Day” was pub-lished in 2012 under thepseudonym Mark Owen.Bissonnette recounted onCBS-TV’s “60 Minutes”program that he sent atext to the commander ofSEAL Team Six after itspublication. He said thecommander replied,“Delete me.”

At the same time,Woolard said, there isfrustration among somespecial operations soldiersthat senior government of-ficials have left office andwritten memoirs revealingand profiting from actionsinvolving troops who aresworn to secrecy. However,one active-duty SEAL offi-cer, who declined to bequoted by name because hehad no permission tospeak publicly, said someSEALs had grown accus-tomed to some of theirmembers seeking to profitfrom their connections tothe elite group, upon re-tirement.

Senior Pentagon andCIA officials cooperatedextensively with the mak-ers of “Zero Dark Thirty,” afilm that depicted both theCIA’s yearslong hunt forbin Laden and the SEALsraid that killed him inPakistan.

In the Esquire piece,O’Neill said he was one oftwo SEALs who went up tothe third floor of the build-ing where bin Laden washiding. The first man firedtwo shots at bin Laden ashe peeked out of the bed-room, but O’Neill saysthose shots missed. Theman then tackled twowomen in the hallway out-side of bin Laden’s bed-room.

O’Neill went into thebedroom, he recounts.“There was bin Ladenstanding there. He had hishands on a woman’s shoul-ders, pushing her ahead,not exactly toward me butby me, in the direction ofthe hallway commotion. Itwas his youngest wife,Amal.”

O’Neill added: “In thatsecond, I shot him twotimes in the forehead. Bap!Bap! The second time ashe’s going down. He crum-pled onto the floor in frontof his bed and I hit himagain. Bap! Same place. ...He was dead.”

AP Was There: The Berlin Wall CrumblesNESHA STARCEVICAssociated Press

EDITOR’S NOTE — TheBerlin Wall came down Nov.9, 1989, heralding not justthe reunification of East andWest Berlin, and East andWest Germany, but the even-tual fall of the USSR and theIron Curtain.

The wall had carved an ab-surd, brutal path throughBerlin’s heart and the heartsof so many of its people.Seeming as permanent asdeath, it separated East Ger-mans from the supposed ide-ological contamination of theWest and stemmed the tideof people fleeing the GermanDemocratic Republic of EastGermany. Instead the wallproved to have the tran-sience of a wound — one thatwould leave a scar, one thatcaused pain, but one thatwould, over time, heal.

Between the time it waserected in 1961 and its fall in1989, at least 136 peopledied at the Berlin Wall, ac-cording to the reunified city’sSenate Chancellery. But af-ter Nov. 9, East Germanscould not only attempt tocross it, they could climb ontop of it, attack it with ham-mer and chisel, or dance ontop of it with their West Ger-man brethren.

The Wall’s demise was pre-ceded by weeks of protests.Hundreds of thousands ofEast Germans had taken tothe streets, demanding freeelections, the right to travel

without restrictions, andother democratic reforms.Protesters in the eastern cityof Leipzig, the site of some ofthe largest protests, shouted,“The Wall must go!”

Twenty-five years after itsoriginal publication, the APis making available this sto-ry, written by AP newsmanNesha Starcevic. Hours be-fore this story was publishedon the AP wire, Starcevichad been the first to reportthe wall’s destruction with aflash bulletin: “East Ger-many began tearing downthe Berlin Wall on Friday.”

___BERLIN (AP) — Commu-

nist East Germany on Fridaypermanently lifted travel re-strictions on its citizens, andworkers began punching ahole in the Berlin Wall thatfor 28 years separated fami-lies and divided East andWest.

All day Friday, more than100,000 jubilant East Ger-mans climbed over andrushed through borders forthe first time in threedecades and amiably chattedwith stony-faced guards whoonce had orders to shootthose trying to escape.

Communist leader EgonKrenz told a huge rally inEast Berlin his new reforms“will not be turned back.”

West German ChancellorHelmut Kohl flew to WestBerlin and hoped to speakwith Krenz, who hasstunned the world with rapid

reforms intended to appeasepro-democracy demonstra-tors and end the exodus tothe West. The Communistspromised free and secretelections.

Communist officials saidThursday that for the firsttime since the Berlin Wallwent up in 1961, citizenscould travel freely to theWest until a new travel lawwas drafted. On Friday, theymade the open-border policypermanent.

“It is permanent and willbe the foundation of a newtravel law,” East German In-terior Minister FriedrichDickel said on East Germantelevision.

West German ForeignMinister Hans-Dietrich Gen-scher told a cheering crowdof 20,000 outside WestBerlin’s City Hall that EastGermany had begun pokingholes in the Berlin Wall bycreating new crossing points.

Genscher, his voice attimes barely audible over theroar of the crowd, said theEast Germans already hadbegun expanding theGlienicker Bridge crossing,which had been used bydiplomats and is famous forspy exchanges between Eastand West.

On Friday night, WestBerlin police said East Ger-man workers had begunpunching a hole through thewall at Bernauer Strasse fora new checkpoint in the Wed-ding section of Berlin. “The

wall is being punchedthrough there,” said a policespokesman, who asked not toidentified.

Genscher listed the namesof the streets to be opened togrowing jubilation from thecrowd gathered to hear himand others speak. Work onthe checkpoints, includingone used to transportgarbage from the West toEast Berlin, would be com-pleted by Nov. 14, he said.

“Dear fellow citizens,when the hour of freedomsounds in Europe, all willsay, ‘The Germans werethere,” Genscher declared,his voice hoarse from emo-tion.

Kohl said “the spirit offreedom now reigns all overEurope — Poland, Hungary,and now, East Germany. Weclaim this right for all peoplein Europe ... we claim it forall Germans.”

President Bush said thedevelopments in East Ger-many mean his meeting inMalta with Soviet PresidentMikhail S. Gorbachev in De-cember will take on “evenmore importance.” He saidthe changes in the East bloc“make clear that the processof reform initiated by theEast Europeans and sup-ported by Mr. Gorbachev andby Americans and by our al-lies is real.”

Secretary of State JamesA. Baker III praised the lift-ing of travel restrictions andcalled it “the most dramaticevent in East-West rela-tions” since World War II.But he added that “there’s along way to go before there istrue freedom and true politi-cal pluralism in East Ger-many.”

In Moscow, Soviet ForeignMinistry spokesman Gen-nady I. Gerasimov welcomedthe decision and said itwould help stem emigrationand do away with “stereo-types about the Iron Cur-tain.”

Arriving in private cars,motorcycles, taxi, or by foot,many East Germans gottheir first taste of the West.Most travelers apparentlyplanned to return home.

East German roads wereswamped with cars headingfor the West German border.But West German border of-ficials said only about one-tenth of the newcomersplanned to stay. So far thisyear, more than 200,000East German refugees havegone West.

East Germans throngedpolice stations across thecountry to wait for passeswhich officials promisednearly everyone would beable to get.

Thousands more entered

West Berlin or West Ger-many by simply getting astamp at a border controlpoint, and many crossed intothe West beginning lateThursday without any spe-cial documents at all.

“We’ve just decided toleave our jobs for a littlewhile, have a look aroundand then go back over,” saida young East German whowent to the West Germantown of Herleshausen alongwith four compatriots.

“We don’t know what ourboss will say about that. Per-haps he’s over here too,” saidthe young man with a laugh.

One young East Germandrove with his child intoHerleshausen for a 15-minute visit just to buy aWest German newspaper.

“I’m going over to pick upsome brake pads you can on-ly get in the West,” said anEast German motorcyclist ashe crossed at Helmstedt,West Germany.

In Berlin, many East Ger-mans just wanted to shop orsee the sights. A group ofEast German workers tookturns visiting West Berlin.

“Everybody wanted to goso we decided to do it inshifts,” said a young workerwho declined to give hisname. “But we’re still fulfill-ing our quota of work.”

East German borderguards abandoned their usu-ally stern demeanor andchatted with throngs of theircountrymen filing throughborder control points.

“You don’t have to work to-day?” one Communist guardsaid at the Invalidenstrassecontrol point in Berlin.

“No, I’ve got the day off,”replied the East Germanwho was on his way to theWest.

The ruling Politburosacked four more officials,including one full memberappointed just this week,and launched a broad inves-tigation of “gross mistakes”made by the leadership un-der ousted party boss ErichHonecker.

Honecker, who directedthe building of the BerlinWall in 1961, has been thetarget of increasing criticismby his fellow Communistssince he was replaced byKrenz on Oct. 18. He hasbeen accused of “gross mis-takes.”

Another long-time Eastbloc leader, Bulgarian Com-munist Party leader TodorZhivkov, resigned Friday af-ter 35 years in which he ledBulgaria through the ColdWar and made it the SovietUnion’s closest East bloc ally.

SEATTLE (AP) — FBI Di-rector James Comey saysan agent impersonated anAssociated Press reporterduring a 2007 criminal in-vestigation, a ruse the newsorganization says could un-dermine its credibility.

In a letter Thursday toThe New York Times,Comey said the agent “por-trayed himself as an em-ployee of The AssociatedPress” to help catch a 15-year-old suspect accused ofmaking bomb threats at ahigh school near Olympia,Washington. It was publi-cized last week that the FBIforged an AP story duringits investigation, butComey’s letter revealed theagency went further andhad an agent actually pre-tend to be a reporter for thewire service.

Comey said the agentposing as an AP reporterasked the suspect to reviewa fake AP article aboutthreats and cyberattacks di-rected at the school, “to besure that the anonymoussuspect was portrayed fair-ly.”

The bogus article con-tained a software tool thatcould verify Internet ad-dresses. The suspect clickedon a link, revealing his com-puter’s location and Inter-net address, which helpedagents confirm his identity.

“That technique wasproper and appropriate un-der Justice Department andFBI guidelines at the time.Today, the use of such anunusual technique wouldprobably require higher-lev-el approvals than in 2007,but it would still be lawfuland, in a rare case, appro-priate,” Comey wrote.

Kathleen Carroll, execu-tive editor of the AP, saidthe FBI’s actions were “un-acceptable.”

“This latest revelation ofhow the FBI misappropriat-ed the trusted name of TheAssociated Press doublesour concern and outrage,expressed earlier to Attor-ney General Eric Holder,about how the agency’s un-acceptable tactics under-mine AP and the vital dis-tinction between the gov-ernment and the press,”

Carroll said in a statement.In a letter to the Justice

Department last week, theAP requested Holder’s wordthat the DOJ would neveragain misrepresent itself asthe AP and asked for poli-cies to ensure the DOJ doesnot further impersonatenews organizations.

In a letter Thursday toComey and Holder, the Re-porters Committee for Free-dom of the Press asked theagency for full disclosureabout the incident.

“The utilization of newsmedia as a cover for deliv-ery of electronic surveil-lance software is unaccept-able,” the letter said. “Thispractice endangers the me-dia’s credibility and createsthe appearance that it isnot independent of the gov-ernment. It underminesmedia organizations’ abilityto independently report onlaw enforcement.”

In his letter to The NewYork Times, Comey said allundercover operations in-volve deception, “which haslong been a critical tool infighting crime.”
