THE MESSAGE
General Motors Co. summoned Wall Street analysts
to its technical center north
of Detroit on Tuesday in an
effort to convince them that
GM is returning to health.
A big reason for its growth
has been international sales,
particularly in China, where
GM sales could top 2 million
this year and even beat U.S.
numbers.
THE REASON
GM wants Wall Street’s
buy-in as it prepares to sell
stock to the public, perhaps
in the fourth quarter of this
year.
WHY YOU
SHOULD CARE
The U.S. government
owns 61 percent of GM
because it gave the company $50 billion in aid last year.
GM repaid $6.7 billion and
the rest was converted to the
majority ownership stake.

DETROIT (AP) — GM
told potential investors
on Tuesday it will be the
first global automaker to
sell more than two million
vehicles in China this year,
portraying itself as poised
for overseas growth a year
after exiting bankruptcy
protection.
General Motors Co. executives are trying to convince
investors that the new company, which emerged from
a government-led restructuring last July, is capable
of making money because
of its international strength
and lower expenses. The
automaker, now a private
company 61 percent held
by the government, plans
to sell shares to the public
as early as the fourth quarter of 2010.
Executives are also making the case that GM is
clawing back from Chapter
11, when it needed roughly
$50 billion in government
aid to stay alive.
“All in all, we’re the bestpositioned U.S. automaker in the world’s critical
emerging markets,” CEO
Ed Whitacre told financial
analysts during a presentation here.
GM’s market share in
China is 13.3 percent, which
it expects to rise marginally
in the next few years. But
GM’s sales there will grow,
even with small market
share increases, because
overall Chinese auto sales
are expected to keep climbing, including a 20-percent
jump this year to 16.5 million cars and trucks.
The automaker runs its
China operations with partner Shanghai Automotive
Industry Corp.
Defiance, Ohio
David Silver, an analyst
with Wall Street Strategies,
a New York-based independent equity research firm,
said GM wanted analysts
to know about its international sales with the stock
sale coming.
“GM, as much as it has
been an American company, it’s now an international
company,” he said. He said
GM’s growth internationally will be far higher than
in the U.S., which used to
be GM’s biggest market.
GM has led all automakers
in sales to the Chinese the
past five years, with sales
up 67 percent since 2008,

Local relay fundraisers far
surpass numbers from 2009
By DARLENE PRINCE
[email protected]
In spite of some uncomfortable
and dangerous weather conditions and a depressed economy,
the dedicated people of the seven
relays for life of northwest Ohio
persevered and raised an amazing $794,500. This surpassed last
year’s total which was $709,000.
The relays for life are a fundraiser for the American Cancer
Society. Proceeds go toward cancer research and education and
to assist those who are fighting
against cancer. Karla Batt, income
development director, noted that
relay officials actually have until
Aug. 31 this year to add to their
2010 totals.
One of the first relays was in
Paulding County, held June 4-5 at
the Paulding County Fairgrounds
in Paulding. The weather turned
stormy during the event, as it has
at many of the relays this year.
According to Cara Soukup,
northwest Ohio income development coordinator for the relays,
two records were broken at the
Paulding relay.
“First, we broke $100,000 for
the first time and our goal was
$71,000. Before this year, the
highest we made was $74,000
in 2008. Last year, in 2009, we
raised $62,700. Another record
for Paulding County this year
is that we had our first $10,000+
team, The Marathon Moms.”

Nation & World Special coverage program launched
From wire reports
Cool and clever, Kagan
preps for more questions
WASHINGTON — Supreme Court nominee Elena
Kagan, who has displayed a cool demeanor and a sense
of humor during her Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, was expected to move one step closer Wednesday
to succeeding Justice John Paul Stevens, barring a
major gaffe.
Republicans who oppose her nomination will need
to resort to a filibuster to block a confirmation vote, a
prospect that seems less and less likely.
A few uncomfortable exchanges with Republican
senators about her treatment of the military and
her political views didn’t slow down Kagan during
Tuesday’s hearing. She tried to assure conservatives
that her work as a Clinton White House aide and as
President Barack Obama’s solicitor general wouldn’t
make her a partisan justice.
“It’s all about law when you put on a judge’s robes,”
Kagan said. “It’s not about politics, it’s not about policy. It’s all about law and making your best judgment
about what the law requires. And that is the pledge
that I said is the only pledge I would make yesterday
and I’ll make it again now.”
Some Republicans didn’t seem convinced. In a heated
back-and-forth, Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama accused
Kagan of defying federal law by barring recruiters from
Harvard Law School’s career services office because of
her strong opposition to the military’s “don’t ask, don’t
tell” policy banning openly gay service members.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Obama administration is launching
a special coverage program for uninsured Americans with medical problems this week, the most ambitious
early investment of President Barack
Obama’s health care overhaul.
But here’s the catch: Premiums will
be a stretch for many, even after government subsidies to bring rates close
to what healthier groups of people
are charged.
And $5 billion that Congress allocated to the program through 2013
could run out well before that.
The Pre-Existing Condition Insurance
For uninsured people who are in poor health
Plan will begin accepting applications in many states on Thursday,
with coverage available as early as
Aug. 1, an administration official said
Tuesday. Consumers can check availability in their states on a new website,
healthcare.gov, starting Thursday. The
goal is for all states to be enrolling
people by the end of the summer.
The official spoke on condition of
anonymity ahead of the administration’s announcement later this week.
“I would enroll as soon as you can,”
said Stephen Finan, policy director for
the American Cancer Society Cancer
Action Network. “These rates are
going to be as affordable as consumers can get these days, particularly for
a high-risk individual.”
Premiums will vary from state to
state. In California, for example, the
cost for a 50-year-old is estimated at
$575 a month, with a $1,500 annual
deductible and 15 percent co-insurance. In states with lower medical
costs could be around $400 a month.
Testifies at hearing
Panel examines roles of AIG, Goldman: The
complex instruments at the heart of the financial
meltdown, and the way two giant companies were
wrapped around them and entwined with each other,
are being examined by the special panel investigating
the origins of the economic crisis. The Financial Crisis
Inquiry Commission is turning its focus to derivatives
at two days of hearings starting today. On the hot seat
will be former executives of American International
Group Inc., the insurance conglomerate saved from
collapse by a $182 billion taxpayer bailout, and current officials of Goldman Sachs Group Inc., the finance
powerhouse that has been one of Wall Street’s biggest
derivatives dealers.
Byrd to lie in Senate chamber: Sen. Robert C.
Byrd, the longest-serving senator in history, often told
his colleagues that he loved them, but he loved the
Senate more. Fittingly, that’s where Washington will
bid him farewell on Thursday, when his body will lie
in repose before returning home to West Virginia for a
public funeral. Byrd’s final appearance on the Senate
floor, where he became famous for soaring oratory and
record-setting speeches, will be as historic as the senator himself. A senator’s casket last lay in repose there
in 1959, the year Byrd joined the chamber. He was the
longest-serving member of Congress ever and was
third in line to the presidency.
Alex becomes Atlantic’s first hurricane:
Hurricane Alex churned westward through the Gulf
of Mexico early today, far from oil spill cleanup efforts
but on a collision course with Mexico and the southern Texas coastline. The National Hurricane Center in
Miami upgraded the storm to a Category 1 hurricane
— the least powerful type — shortly before 10 p.m.
CDT Tuesday after measuring sustained winds of
75 mph. Alex became the first June hurricane in the
Atlantic since 1995, the center said. Texas residents had
been preparing for the storm for days, readying their
homes and businesses and stocking up on household
essentials. But the storm was expected to deal only a
glancing blow to the state and to make landfall this
evening south of Matamoros, Mexico, and some 100
miles south of Brownsville.
Courts requesting $40 million: President Barack
Obama’s $600 million border security plan seems to have
it all: More than 1,000 agents, seven gunrunner teams,
five FBI task forces and more prosecutors and immigration judges. But it doesn’t include $40 million to help
the already overwhelmed federal courts along the U.S.Mexico border that will likely be inundated with additional drug and other criminal cases, a judiciary official
tells Associated Press. Increased patrols will mean more
arrests and more cases sent to the five district courts on
the border, from California to Texas. The courts handle
cases including drug trafficking, smuggling and illegal
immigrants charged with other serious crimes.
Intercepts ballistic missile in test: The U.S. military says it successfully shot down a short-range ballistic missile in a test off Hawaii. Soldiers of the 6th Air
Defense Artillery Brigade from Fort Bliss, Texas, fired
the interceptor from the Pacific Missile Range Facility
on Kauai. It shot down the target, which was fired after
9:30 p.m. Monday from a decommissioned amphibious
assault ship positioned offshore, during the target’s final
stage of flight. The soldiers firing the interceptor didn’t
know ahead of time when the target missile was going
to be launched.
Facing another test: Germany’s president tradi-
tionally has little political influence, but the election
today of a new head of state has turned into a challenge
for Chancellor Angela Merkel’s troubled government.
Merkel’s center-right coalition has struggled since it
took office in October — hit by constant squabbling
over policy and forced by the eurozone debt crisis to
push through an austerity drive and unpopular rescue
packages for Germany’s European partners. The contest
for the presidency, a largely ceremonial but symbolically
important job, has added another layer to its troubles
— fueling speculation in recent weeks that a loss for
Merkel’s candidate could push her coalition to the brink
of collapse.
Eight militants killed: Militants set off a car bomb
and stormed the entrance to a major NATO air base in
eastern Afghanistan today, authorities said. Eight insurgents died in the failed assault. The Taliban claimed
responsibility for the attack, the third ground assault
against a major coalition base in the past five weeks.
The attacks failed to overrun the bases but showed that
the Taliban have not been cowed by U.S. efforts to ramp
up the war. Using light weapons and rocket-propelled
grenades, the militants battled U.S. and Afghan forces
for 30 minutes around the airport on the outskirts of
Jalalabad city, the media office at the airport said.
Magnitude 6.2 quake hits southern Mexico:
A strong earthquake rattled southern Mexico today,
sending people fleeing into the streets in Pacific coast
towns and in the nation’s capital. The U.S. Geological
Survey said the magnitude-6.2 quake was centered in a
sparsely populated, mountainous area of Oaxaca near
the southern Pacific coast.

Gen. David Petraeus testifies on Capitol Hill in
Washington on Tuesday before the Senate Armed
Services Committee hearing to be confirmed as
President Obama’s choice to take control of forces in
Afghanistan. The Senate Armed Services Committee
quickly approved Petraeus for the job of running the
Afghan war, and the full Senate was expected to
confirm him today. Petraeus left open the possibility
of recommending that Obama delay his plans to start
withdrawing troops from Afghanistan next summer if
the new commander can’t turn around the stalemated
war.
Senate combines jobless benefits, homebuyer credit
package, but the larger bill died in the
Senate last week.
Without an extension, unemployment payments would continue to
be phased out for more than 200,000
people a week.
Many Democrats see the benefits
as insurance against the economy
sliding back into recession. Many
Republicans, however, worry that
adding nearly $34 billion to the budget deficit will only add to the nation’s
economic problems.
“Look around the world. Countries
are sinking in debt,” said Rep. Dave
Camp of Michigan, the top Republican
on the Ways and Means Committee.
“Yet the Democrat leaders of this
House seem among the last to understand this reckless spending cannot go
on forever.”
Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid filed a motion Tuesday to end
WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate
Democrats are working on a new
way to jump-start their stalled election-year jobs agenda while saving
unemployment benefits for hundreds
of thousands of laid-off workers.
The plan is to create one bill that
combines unemployment benefits with
an extension of a popular tax credit for
people who buy new homes.
Under current law, homebuyers who
signed purchase agreements by April
30 must close on their new homes by
Wednesday to qualify for credits of up
to $8,000. The bill would give those
buyers until Sept. 30 to complete the
purchases and qualify for the credit.
Democrats hope to pick up
Republican support for the bill by
combining the two provisions. They
have been trying for weeks to pass an
extension of unemployment benefits
as part of a larger tax and spending
debate on the bill and force a vote by
Thursday.
“These common-sense solutions to
help millions of Americans deserve
bipartisan support and should be
passed swiftly,” Reid said.
The House, meanwhile, overwhelmingly passed a bill Tuesday to extend
the deadline for the homebuyer tax
credit. House Democrats plan to vote
on a bill extending unemployment
benefits as early as today.
House Republicans blocked the
unemployment bill Tuesday, denying Democrats the two-thirds majority they needed to pass the bill
under a special procedure that limited debate and allowed no amendments. Afterward, the House Rules
Committee passed a rule allowing a
vote on the unemployment benefits
anytime this week with only a simple
majority needed for passage.
Gulf beaches hit as distant hurricane pushes oil
GRAND ISLE, La. (AP) — Rough seas generated by
Hurricane Alex pushed more oil from the massive spill
onto Gulf coast beaches as cleanup vessels were sidelined
by the far-away storm’s ripple effects.
The hurricane was churning coastal waters across the
oil-affected region on the Gulf of Mexico. Waves as high
as six feet and winds over 25 mph were forecast through
Thursday just off shore from the Mississippi Delta in
Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle.
In Louisiana, the storm pushed an oil patch toward
Grand Isle and uninhabited Elmer’s Island, dumping tar
balls as big as apples on the beach.
“The sad thing is it’s been about three weeks since we
had any big oil come in here,” marine science technician
Michael Malone said. “With this weather,we lost the progress we made.”
The loss of skimmers, combined with gusts driving
water into the coast, left beaches especially vulnerable. In
Alabama, the normally white sand was streaked with long
lines of oil. One swath of beach 40 feet wide was stained
brown and mottled with globs of oil matted together.
Dozens of vessels that were being used to combat the
oil spill were tied to docks Tuesday as Alex, more than
500 miles away, approached the Texas-Mexico coast.
Most days, the fleet would have been skimming oil from
the Gulf and ferrying workers and supplies. But the hurricane turned many people fighting the 11-week-old spill
into spectators. And they will be for days.
The nasty weather will likely linger in the Gulf through
Thursday, National Weather Service meteorologist Brian
LaMarre said.
Officials scrambled to reposition boom to protect the
coast, and had to remove barges that had been blocking
oil from reaching sensitive wetlands. Those operations
could soon get a boost. The U.S. accepted offers of help
from 12 countries and international organizations. Japan,
for instance, was sending two skimmers and boom.
Skimming efforts off the coasts of Louisiana, Florida,
Alabama and Mississippi had mostly stopped.
At the main staging area for oil cleanup efforts around
Grand Isle, stacks of boom, bottled water, ice chests and
cleaning materials set ready to load when work restarted.

after Supreme Court ruling Voted #1 Quality
Repair Facility in the area!
WASHINGTON (AP) — State or local gun laws that prohibit people from carrying firearms outside the home and
onerous registration requirements are the most likely to be
struck down by judges following the Supreme Court’s latest decision supporting the right to keep and bear arms.
An explosion of cases will keep courts busy for years
defining gun control’s new limits now that the high court
has ruled that wherever they live, Americans have a right
to possess guns, at least for self-defense in the home.
Justice Samuel Alito, author of the majority opinion Monday, dismissed “doomsday proclamations” that
all gun laws would be struck down. Alito essentially
repeated the formulation used by Justice Antonin Scalia
two years ago that the court was not calling into question
“long-standing prohibitions on the possession of firearms
by felons or the mentally ill, or laws forbidding the carrying of firearms in sensitive places such as schools and
government buildings.”
But the justices left a lot of ground for other courts to
cover in determining the constitutional limits on gun
laws.

Hulu
On Tuesday, Hulu announced
it has launched a subscription
service ($9.99 per month) with
complete access to back episodes
of popular TV shows, like “Glee,”
“House” and others from ABC,
Fox and NBC.
Hulu is an online video site
where you can watch some of
your favorite shows from yesteryear. I have found several old TV
series that I grew up watching,
like “Emergency,” “Adam-12,”
“The A-Team” and more on this
site. You can watch many of these
episodes on Hulu.com by clicking
on the TV button at the top of the
screen. This will take you to a new
screen and now you can click on
the “Browse TV” link, where you
will see the many shows available
to watch.
You can use the same process for
watching full-length movies, only
on the home screen, you would
click “Movies.”
It appears to me (so far anyway)
that you can still watch many of
the older shows on Hulu, which
is good. You can take a “walkthrough” of Hulu’s plus service at

Holds narrow lead: Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland continued to outpace Republican
challenger John Kasich in their
November matchup, though
voters disapprove of the governor’s handling of the economy
and state budget.
That’s according to the latest
poll by Quinnipiac University
Polling Institute, which regularly gauges Ohioans’ opinions
on candidates on issues.
The Connecticut-based institute questioned 1,107 registered
Ohio voters over the past week.
Of that total, 43 percent said
they supported Strickland in
the gubernatorial election, versus 38 percent who supported
Kasich. The results are essentially unchanged from polls in
March and April.

OPINION

Dennis Van Scoder, Editor
Todd Helberg, Editorial Page Editor
Chicken shacks get
a lot of political play
COLUMBUS — For people who spend so much time
slinging mud at one another, politicians sure can be
thin-skinned sometimes.
Case in point: Last week’s utterance of the apparently extremely offensive Appalachian epithet “chicken
shack,” muttered by Republican John Kasich’s spokesman following a speech on urban issues by Democratic
Lt. Gov. nominee Yvette McGee Brown.
In retrospect, the feigned outrage over the comment
seems silly, but one day last week, it was the focus of
multiple lawmakers and campaign
officials’ time and effort.
It was Brown’s first major public
policy speech, and it was a decent
presentation, with all of the emotion and optimism one would expect
from someone wanting to be the
state’s No. 2 elected official. She
laid out an agenda that included
focused incentives for putting city
people back to work, revitalizing
city homes and business buildings
and encouraging African-American
MARC
young people living in cities to stay
KOVAC
in school.
Brown also leveled an unnecessary
cheap shot at lawmakers, essentially demanding that
Senate Republicans leave their poolside lounge chairs
and get back to work on law changes. Technically
speaking, House Democrats are equally guilty of lounging by the pool at present. But I digress.
It’s an election year, so reporter types contacted
the Kasich campaign for a reaction to the speech. In
response, spokesman Rob Nichols offered this: “Not
until Ted Strickland feared needing their votes did he
give urban Ohioans a second thought. Having grown up
in a chicken shack on Duck Run, he has all but ignored
our cities’ economies and their workers. It’s a disgraceful record whose pain for urban Ohioans can’t be swept
under the rug with a bunch of pretty speeches.”
Colorful, yes, but was mentioning the Duck Run
chicken shack — something the governor has referenced in past speeches — really that offensive?
It was to at least half a dozen lawmakers and Gov. Ted
Strickland’s campaign folks, who issued statements and
participated in a conference call to voice their outrage.
Said Strickland campaign spokesman Lis Smith:
“Only the congressman from Wall Street would be
so out of touch as to insult Ted’s humble upbringing.
While Congressman Kasich may have spent a lot of
time in boardrooms at Lehman Brothers and rubbing
elbows with lobbyists at cocktail parties in Washington,
Ohioans are looking for a governor who will represent
their values, and clearly that is not John Kasich.”
And, Democratic Congressman Charlie Wilson: “I’m
appalled that Congressman Kasich’s campaign would
make a remark that is so insulting to all of us from
Appalachian Ohio. It’s as if his campaign is saying that
if you’re from a small town, you’re not qualified to
work on behalf of the people of Ohio. As someone who
not only represents 12 counties in Ohio’s Appalachian
region but was born here too, the Kasich campaign’s
comment is terribly degrading — not only to Ted, but to
many of us in Appalachia and rural Ohio.”
Nichols quickly apologized, saying, “I was using Gov.
Strickland’s own words but shouldn’t have and I apologize. When he says those things about himself it’s different than when others say them, and it could be viewed
pejoratively. That certainly wasn’t intended.”
All of it seems pretty ridiculous, given the real problems both urban and rural Ohioans are facing.
Next thing you know, the Kasich and Strickland
campaigns will be going after each other over who is
doing more to make sure bazillionaire basketball player
LeBron James remains in Cleveland. Oh, wait ... .

‘To the editor’
God provides all things
I am writing in response to Bruce Gerencser’s letter to
the editor in the June 20 Crescent-News. Gerencser stated
in his letter that he wanted “to give credit to whom credit
is due.” Well, I too would like to do that.
First, I am thankful to live in America where I have the
priviledge of writing a letter to the editor to express my
opinion. Thank you to The Crescent-News for setting aside
a page in your paper to print even those I may disagree
with.
Many, many thanks to my parents and husband for
working so hard to provide for us. In addition to those
Gerencser gave thanks to, I would also like to thank the
farmers who provide the food our nation enjoys. Also, a
big thank you goes to those serving in the military, past
and present, who are willing to sacrifice their lives in order
to help protect our nation.
However, I realize that God is the one who actually provides all these. He gives good health in order to do
the work. He gives knowledge to the doctors, teachers,
counselors, etc. so they can help others. God provides the
sunshine and rain the farmers need in order to produce
their crops.
Everything we have or do not have comes from God. So,
thank you dear God for all these, but most of all I thank
you for my home in heaven.

Group had a ‘wonderful experience’
The participants of the Great Lakes Regional Youth
Event (GLRYE) of the United Church of Christ would like
to thank The Crescent-News for the article about our event.
The 325 participants donated 1,950 service hours to the
community, 1,100 pairs of socks to a homeless shelter and
$704.95 to the Path Center.
Many thanks to all of the community organizations who
welcomed the kids — to Nick Webber at DC for making
the arrangements and to Defiance College and St. John’s
UCC church for their extravagant welcome. We had a
wonderful experience.

Firemen deserved to be honored
I would like to share with the community a blessing that
came to Wauseon with the fireman’s convention.
My dad was a Wauseon fireman as was my second
dad, Rev. Ron Foulk, 48 years ago. When they heard the
convention was to be in Wauseon they assured me they
would be here. I began calling members of those years and
soon found that for the most part there were few surviving
members. It was then that I took on the task of having a
reunion for this group of men.
I contacted the Wauseon Fire Department since these
men were honorary members of their department. I asked
to use their community room to feed these men as I would
supply everything. I only needed the space. I was told no,
as it would be too busy at the station to have them there.
The problem was solved when I rented my church fellowship hall.
The next contact with the Wauseon Fire Deparment was
to request that these men be allowed to ride in their trucks
during the parade. I was told no. So, I rented and paid for
a privately-owned fire truck. (I only had seven men to ride
in the parade).
The last request I had for the Wauseon Fire Department
was to allow them to at least let their honorary men ride
behind the Wauseon equipment. I was told no, they could
be number 38 in line. With this I called the mayor and he
had them placed behind the Wauseon Marching Band.
Let me share the fact also that the sign on the door read
Wauseon Honorary Firemen 1956-1966. This I was told
was not good enough as I had also to put a sign indicating
that it was sponsored by myself, Maryann Reimund. I was
told this way the city would not have any ties to them.
Let me tell you that 12 men showed for this reunion,
and they came for one reason, and that was they have a
brotherhood that doesn’t exist anymore. Two came from
Florida, one from southern Ohio and others from right
here in Wauseon. I did have one fireman stranded in
Chicago due to storms and he rented a cab that cost him
$500 as he had no plans on missing this reunion.
I hosted a dinner for all of them and their spouses, as
well as the surviving widows that evening, and what a
time it was. Stories were told, old photos were shared and
tears were shed. I overheard one of the men say, “brother I
hope we can see each other again, but if we don’t we will
surely meet again up there.”
These men fought fires and saved lives when there was
no pay! They were more than just brothers. They were
family, and they remain that way today. What a shame that
the Wauseon Fire Department couldn’t fit them into their
schedule to honor these men who laid the foundation for
this very department. They honor you every day in their
memories. Shame on you for not having the decency to do
the same for them!

Snap, crackle and pop
Pursuant to Elena Kagan’s expressed
enthusiasm for confirmation hearings
that feature intellectual snap, crackle and
pop, here are some questions the Senate
Judiciary Committee can elate her by asking:
— Regarding campaign finance
“reforms”: If allowing the political class to
write laws regulating
the quantity, content
and timing of speech
about the political class
is the solution, what is
the problem?
— If the problem is
corruption, do we not
already have abundant
laws proscribing that?
— If the problem is
the “appearance” of
corruption, how do
GEORGE
you square the First
WILL
Amendment
with
Congress
restricting
speech in order to regulate how things
“appear” to unspecified people?
— Incumbent legislators are constantly
tinkering with the rules regulating campaigns that could cost them their jobs.
Does this present an appearance of corruption?
— Some persons argue that our nation has
a “living” Constitution; the court has spo-
ken of “the evolving standards of decency
that mark the progress of a maturing society.” But Justice Antonin Scalia, speaking
against “changeability” and stressing “the
whole antievolutionary purpose of a constitution,” says “its whole purpose is to
prevent change — to embed certain rights
in such a manner that future generations
cannot readily take them away. A society
that adopts a bill of rights is skeptical that
‘evolving standards of decency’ always
‘mark progress,’ and that societies always
‘mature,’ as opposed to rot.” Is he wrong?
— The Ninth Amendment says: “The
enumeration in the Constitution of certain
rights shall not be construed to deny or
disparage others retained by the people.”
The 14th Amendment says no state may
abridge “the privileges or immunities” of
U.S. citizens. How should the court determine what are the “retained” rights and
the “privileges or immunities”?
— The 10th Amendment (“The powers
not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the
states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people”) is, as former
Delaware Gov. Pete du Pont has said, “to
the Constitution what the Chicago Cubs
are to the World Series: of only occasional
appearance and little consequence.” Were
the authors of the Bill of Rights silly to
include this amendment?
— Should decisions of foreign courts, or
laws enacted by foreign legislatures, have
any bearing on U.S. courts’ interpretations
of the Constitution or federal laws (other
than directly binding treaties)?
— The Fifth Amendment says private
property shall not be taken by government
for public use without just compensation.
But what about “regulatory takings”? To
confer a supposed benefit on the public,
government often restricts how persons
can use their property, sometimes substantially reducing the property’s value.
But government offers no compensation
because the property is not “taken.” But
when much of a property’s value is taken
away by government action, should owners be compensated?
— In Bush v. Gore, which settled the 2000
election, seven justices ruled that Florida
vote recounts that were being conducted
in different jurisdictions under subjective
and contradictory standards were incompatible with the Constitution’s guarantee
of “equal protection of the laws.” Were
they right?
— In Bush v. Gore, five justices held
that Article II of the Constitution gives
state legislatures plenary power to set the
rules for presidential elections. The Florida
Legislature fashioned election rules to produce presidential electors immune from
challenge by Congress. But the Legislature
said that immunity depended on electors
being chosen by a certain date, which
could not be met if further recounts were
to ensue. The court held that allowing
more recounts would have contravened
the intent of Florida’s Legislature. So the
recounts were halted. Was the court’s
majority correct?
— Justice Thurgood Marshall, for whom
you clerked, said: “You do what you think
is right and let the law catch up.” Can you
defend this approach to judging?
— You have said: “There is no federal
constitutional right to same-sex marriage.”
But that depends on what the meaning of
“is” is. There was no constitutional right
to abortion until the court discovered one
185 years after the Constitution was ratified, when the right was spotted lurking in
emanations of penumbras of other rights.
What is to prevent the court from similarly
discovering a right to same-sex marriage?
— Bonus question: In Roe v. Wade, the
court held that the abortion right is different in each of the three trimesters of
pregnancy. Is it odd that the meaning of
the Constitution’s text would be different if
the number of months in the gestation of a
human infant were a prime number?

Human canvas
Groups: Get back to work lawmakers
more Ohioans in their
homes. Two of the bills, supported by Democrats, have
passed the Ohio House but
stalled in the Republicancontrolled Senate.
— House Bill 486, which
would close loopholes in
state law that have allowed
payday lenders to continue
to charge triple-digit rates
on short-term loans. The
legislation has passed the
House but has stalled in the
Senate.
— Competing resolutions
to change the way Ohio’s
legislative district lines
are drawn. Republicans in
the Ohio Senate have been
unable to reach an agreement on the issue, though
they attempted to find common ground on a House resolution that passed earlier.
“They managed to compromise and make the
bullfrog the state frog and
the spotted salamander
the state amphibian,” said
Catherine Turcer from Ohio
Citizen Action’s Money in
Politics Project. “But what
about the gerrymander?
We need the Legislature
to come back and address
redistricting reform as soon
as possible or it won’t be on
this November’s ballot.”
Hope to make lawmakers return
to work sooner after their break
By MARC KOVAC
C-N Capital Bureau
COLUMBUS — Advocacy
groups are calling on Ohio
lawmakers to get back to
work on foreclosure prevention, payday lending
reform, redistricting and
other legislation they say
can’t wait until November
for action.
Progress Ohio, Ohio
Citizen Action, Common
Cause Ohio and the
Coalition on Homelessness
and Housing in Ohio
released two Web videos
(online at www.progressohio.org) and sported T-shirts
reading “My lawmaker
went to the Statehouse and
all I got was this Bullfrog”
to emphasize their point.
The latter makes reference to legislation passed
and signed by Gov. Ted
Strickland that designated
the bullfrog as the official
state frog and the spotted
salamander as the official
state amphibian.
“We are here, unfortunately, because the legislature is not,” Brian
Rothenberg,
executive
director of Progress Ohio,
said during a press conference at the Statehouse. He
added, “This legislature has
not been able to get anything meaningful passed.”
Lawmakers adjourned
for the summer earlier this
month and aren’t expected
to be back until after the
November election (though
the Ohio Senate likely will
return for one day, to sign
off on members of the new
state casino control commission, after the governor
names his appointees).
But the advocacy groups
hope to change that and
prompt lawmakers to
return sooner.
“We are here to try to put
pressure, through humor
and through some serious discussion, to bring
the Legislature back this
summer to do their jobs,”
Rothenberg said.
Among the legislation the
groups want to see passed
are:
— Multiple bills to prevent foreclosures and keep

able to get thanks to their participation
Family gets home thanks to program
Individual Development Account also
to be used for education or business
There’s a way to reach
those dreams of a home,
furthering education or
even starting a business.
Paulding resident Erica
Ramirez was one of those
that had the dream of owning her own home. With
one son wanting a yard to
play in and one on the way,
it just never seemed to be
obtainable until a family
member told her about the
Individual Development
Accounts
(IDA)
program,
administered
through
Northwestern
Ohio Community Action
Commission (NOCAC).
A
family
member
explained that the IDA
program might be just
the resource she needed
to make her dreams come
true.
The program helps individuals that are residents
of Defiance, Williams,
Paulding, Henry and
Fulton counties realize their
dream of home ownership,
small business start-up/
expansion, or post-secondary education. Individuals
must have some type of
earned income and income
qualify to be eligible. The
program is coordinated by
NOCAC. For more information, call 419-784-5393.
Ramirez applied to the
IDA program and was
found eligible. She enrolled
right away, with the motivation that purchasing a home
really could be a reality for
her. She started saving her
money each month in a
special IDA account at one
of four local banks associated with the IDA program.
The program would match
each dollar that she saved
with another two dollars.
Ramirez could save up to
$2,000 of her own money
in her IDA account and
become eligible for another
$4,000 of match money to
add to her down payment,
home inspection and closing costs.
Every month Ramirez
worked hard at making
those deposits so that she
could receive her match
money. The IDA program
also required that Ramirez
attend five classes on financial literacy such as raising a credit score, making
a paycheck stretch, identity
theft, saving wealth and
basic banking. In addition,
Ramirez also attended eight
hours of free home buyer
education training provided by NOCAC’s HUD certified housing counselor.
With the help of NOCAC’s
IDA program, Ramirez was
able to move into her own
home and welcome her 2week-old son and his 2year-old big brother into
their own bedrooms.

tive character of the current stage of development of Russian-American relations.”
The White House response was notably restrained following the dramatic
announcement that 11 people assigned
a decade or more to illegally infiltrate
American society had been arrested. They
are accused of using fake names and claims
of U.S. citizenship to burrow into U.S. society and ferret out intelligence as Russian
“illegals” — spies operating without diplomatic cover.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs
labored to show that the arrests were a
law enforcement matter — one not driven
by the president, even though President
Barack Obama was informed — and played
down any political consequences.
Obama was asked about the matter by
reporters twice Tuesday. He declined to
comment both times.
Gibbs said Obama was aware before
he met with Russian President Dmitry
Medvedev at the White House on Thursday
that the case was under investigation, but
the two leaders did not discuss it. Another
White House spokesman, Tommy Vietor,
said Obama did not know the exact timing
of the arrests.
The FBI’s arrests of 10 Russian spy suspects had to be carried out Sunday partly
because one of the defendants was scheduled to leave the United States, according
to the Justice Department. But agency
spokesman Dean Boyd declined to identify which of the 10 defendants arrested
Sunday was planning to exit the United

exceeded its goal of $76,000.
They raised $93,000, with a
record crowd at the opening ceremony. Last year, the
relay raised $71,173.
Batt said the Putnam relay
auction raised a recordbreaking $11,800, the most
they have ever raised. A
big storm came through at
2 a.m. causing most teams
to leave the grounds. At 7
a.m. Saturday, many of the
teams came back, but more
storms were forecast so the
relay ended early.
In Fulton County, the
relay was held on June 1112 at the Fulton County
Fairgrounds in Wauseon.
Soukup said, “Our goal
this year was $139,000, and
we raised $119,000. We had
a great event, a lot of people at the relay. We had
threatening storms on the
radar and the sky was dark
most of Friday evening,
but we never got a drop
of rain. The storms had
gone around us. Last year,
we raised $132,000. Even
though we didn’t make our
goal this year, we have until
the end of August for teams
to turn in their money.”

States.
Officials in both countries left the impression that spy rings remain a common way
of doing business.
Prime Minister Vladimir Putin offered a
message of restraint during a meeting at his
country residence with former President
Bill Clinton, who was in Moscow to speak
at an investment conference.
“I understand that back home police
are putting people in prison,” Putin said,
drawing a laugh from Clinton. “That’s
their job. I’m counting on the fact that the
positive trend seen in the relationship will
not be harmed by these events.”
The administration has made a high priority of improving relations with Russia.
Critics say Obama has bent too far backward to accommodate the Russians, with
little to show in return.
Stephen Flanagan, senior fellow at the
Center for Strategic and International
Studies, said some Obama critics will
point to the spy scandal as evidence of a
dual-track Russian approach of offering
an outstretched hand while “still trying to
pick your pocket” with the other.
At stake in the short term is a newly concluded nuclear arms control deal, dubbed
New START, which requires a favorable
vote in the U.S. Senate and approval by the
Russian legislature.
More broadly, Obama wants to build
the foundation for a strategic partnership
with Moscow — to increase security and
economic and other cooperation with the
former Cold War foe.
18-19 was busy with two
relays.
The Relay For Life of
Defiance County was held
at the Ayersville High
School track. At this relay,
there was a good-sized
crowd at the opening ceremonies. There were more
teams this year. This year
$125,000 was raised; last
year, $119,000 was raised.
The Defiance relay teams
were shut down for a while
by storms in the area. When
the first storm blew through
between 9-9:30 p.m., relay
participants went to the
school building where the
relay auction was concluded. After hearing about the
possibility of another storm
that was to come through
later in the night, the relay
was postponed at about
10:15 p.m. Friday until
resuming Saturday at 6 a.m.
Many community members
were on hand Saturday to
support the event.
In Henry County, participants were also sent home
Friday evening. The relay
officials resumed activities at 8 a.m. Saturday with
large crowds in attendance.
The Henry County relay
raised $192,500. Their goal
was $186,000. Last year, the
relay raised $188,700.

on June 25-26. The goal was
$112,000. This year, $122,000
was raised, while last year,
$118,632 was raised.
The last, but certainly not
the least of the relays, the
one in Hicksville, was held
June 26-27 at the Defiance
County Fairgrounds in
Hicksville.
New this year at the relay
was the decision to hold it
on Saturday and Sunday,
instead of the standard
Friday-Saturday event.
Steph Mazur, co-chair of
the Hicksville relay, said,
“One of the reasons we
decided to hold the relay
on Saturday and Sunday is
because it is easier on the
people who work all day
and then come to the relay.
There is so much rushing to
leave work, get to the relay
and set up, we just thought
this might be easier. Also
our biggest fundraiser is
the sale of food and, this
way, we hit the brunch,
lunch and dinner crowds.”
Mazur said another concern was for the survivors
and to keep them out of
participating in their events
in the heat of the day.
The weather was hot and
steamy, but a larger than
usual crowd showed up for
the auction.
Soukup said the goal
at Hicksville was to raise
$54,000. About $43,000 was
raised this year. Last year,
$47,900 was raised.
2014 because of growing demand,
chief financial officer Chris Liddell
said. GM sold about 7.5 million
vehicles globally last year.
Liddell also told analysts that
GM will use every spare dollar
of cash it earns to cut its debt and
pension obligations to zero.
The company had $30 billion
in cash at the end of the first
quarter, and $42.2 billion in debt,
preferred stock and pension obligations.
Repayment will take several
years, but GM should be able to
do it because its expenses and
break-even levels have been
reduced, he said.
GM has repaid $6.7 billion of its

Bank bill gets patched up,
moves closer to passage
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Congressional Democrats
are inching closer to passage of a major rewrite of
financial industry regulations, making fixes as they
go.
House and Senate negotiators hoped for a vote in
the House today and to
secure the votes of three
straying Republicans in the
Senate. The Senate vote,
however, is not likely until
after Congress’ weeklong
July 4 break.
The death of Sen. Robert
Byrd, D-W.Va., this week
and fresh objections from
Republican Sens. Scott
Brown of Massachusetts
and Susan Collins and
Olympia Snowe of Maine
had threatened to derail
the bill, already a year in
the making.
Eager to salvage one of
President Barack Obama’s
legislative
priorities,
Democrats altered the formula that would have paid
for the legislation by eliminating a contentious $19
billion fee on large banks
and hedge funds.
Instead, House and
Senate negotiators, voting
along party lines, agreed to
pay for the bill with money
generated by ending the
unpopular Troubled Asset
Relief Program — the $700
billion bank bailout created in the fall of 2008 at
the height of the financial
scare.
It was a solution
Democrats weren’t keen
on and most Republicans
denounced. But in the
Senate, with 60-vote
thresholds needed to overcome procedural hurdles,
a single senator has the
leverage to change a bill.
Brown, Collins and Snowe
were three of 61 senators who had previously
backed a Senate version of
the bill.
Sen. Chris Dodd, DConn.,
chairman
of
the
Senate
Banking
Committee, said he ran
the proposal past the three
Republicans to make sure
they would support it.
“But obviously, until they
actually cast a vote, you
never know,” he said.
Even if the House
approved the bill today,
the Senate had little time
to take it up this week. In
a rare honor, Byrd was to
lie in repose in the Senate
chamber for six hours
Thursday. That and work
on other unfinished legislation were likely to push
the bill into the week of
July 12.
White House spokesman
Robert Gibbs conceded as
much Tuesday, but added,
“I don’t think there is a
question now whether it
will get done.”
Besides
the
three
Republicans, Democrats

payments.
“Our part is to let all members know
that this is happening,” said Sonja
Delaney, CEO of Midwest Community
Federal Credit Union. Delaney said they
have sent out mailings to their customers
informing them of the new rules and are
following up on customers they have not
heard back from yet.
“It’s more for people who aren’t good
at keeping track of things,” said Delaney
on the new rules. “(The overdraft fees)
are there to cover you when you make
silly mistakes.”
Those who opt in will be able to cancel
at any time while those who opt out will
have the ability to opt in at any time.
While the new rules give consumers
options, the change may hurt customers
in other ways.
The ability to opt out of overdraft fees
means banks will be making less on their
bottom line and may try to increase fees
elsewhere.
“It’s definitely going to affect the bottom line of institutions,” said Delaney.
“A bank is a business too and while

financial aid to the U.S. government, but the remaining $43.3 billion has been converted to equity
in the company. The government
hopes to get at least part of the
remaining balance back in the
public stock sale.
GM made $865 million in the
first quarter and is cautiously
optimistic that it will have a profitable year.
GM is also in the midst of
restructuring its European operations, which long have been a
money loser. The company recently decided to fund the restructuring itself after the German government refused to approve aid.
Mark James, vice president and
also were working to win
the support of Sen. Maria
Cantwell, D-Wash., who
voted against the Senate
version last month. She
complained the bill was
not tough enough on
banks.
If unable to secure 60
votes, Democrats would
have to wait for West
Virginia’s
Democratic
governor, Joe Manchin, to
appoint Byrd’s successor.
Manchin has said he has
no timetable for his decision.
The far-reaching legislation would rewrite financial regulations by putting
new limits on bank activities, creating an independent consumer protection
bureau and adding new
rules for largely unregulated financial instruments.
Working with the White
House and Treasury
officials, Democrats on
Tuesday replaced the bank
and hedge fund fee with
$11 billion that would be
freed by ending the government’s authority to use
the $700 billion bank bailout fund, known as TARP.
The bailout fund was
scheduled to expire in
October.
The new proposal would
end it as of June 25, essentially cutting Congress’
spending authority from
$700 billion to $475 billion.
Union) is non-profit still we’re always
trying to stay financially sound.”
One place banks may try to offset the
lack of funds from the loss of overdraft
fees is eliminating free checking.
“There’s always going to be steps taken
to counter at that sort of thing. We’re
definitely seeing a trend of free checking
and rewards checking disappearing.”
Whether you opt in or out of the new
rules, Delaney says it all comes down to
being financially responsible in the first
place.
“It’s money management and being
responsible,” she said. “So much could
be saved if people would balance their
check books.”
For frequent debit card users, she recommends keeping track of each card purchase, whether in a check book or other
notebook, or saving the receipts from
each purchase and updating records at
the end of the day.
“One of the best ways is to use online
banking to stay on top of things,” she
said, adding that consumers should take
advantage of free online financial tutorials.
“We’d much rather teach people how
to use their cards than try and keep them
out of trouble.”
chief financial officer of Opel/
Vauxhall Europe, said GM expects
to break even in Europe by 2011
and be profitable going forward.
He said the company plans 8,300
layoffs that should be completed
by the end of 2011.
With debt lowered through
bankruptcy
restructuring,
reduced labor costs, and new
products that are making good
profits, GM executives said the
company is ready to prosper in
good times and make it through
the inevitable downturns.
But vice chairman for corporate
strategy Steve Girsky warned that
the next decade could be even
tougher for the company than the
past 10 years.
New foreign competitors will
come to the U.S., which also is
seeing new automakers spring up
such as Tesla and Fisker. The two
startups are building electric and
hybrid cars. Fuel economy regulations will dry up GM’s traditional
profit sources in large trucks and
sport utility vehicles.
Girsky said he recently had
breakfast with a venture capitalist who pointed out that new
automakers will run Detroit out
of the business by copying what
it does well and shedding what it
does poorly.
“We’ve got to make sure that
doesn’t happen,” Girksy said.

NBA free agent shopping season officially begins at

being one of the most sought-after players ever in the
free agent market. Along with LeBron, the 2003 NBA
draft class also sports plenty more highly-touted stars
with Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh also available.
Where will ‘The King’ sit on his throne?
NEW YORK (AP) — The date has been circled
on calendars around the NBA for years.
July 1, 2010: The day LeBron James becomes
a free agent.
The day the league might begin to change
forever.
“I think the landscape could really shift,” former Phoenix general manager Steve Kerr said.

Thursday with James as the biggest prize, a

“We’ve never had anything like this in my
time that I can remember,” New Jersey Nets
president Rod Thorn said. “There have been
big-time free agents before, but never this many
teams that are trying to woo them. So it’s
unprecedented.”
Thorn is headed to Ohio, where James will welcome suitors to his home state Thursday. He’ll
be joined by new owner Mikhail Prokhorov,
coach Avery Johnson and hip-hop superstar JayZ, a part-owner and James’ longtime friend.
Then it’s back home to make pitches the next
day in New York to Wade and Bosh — though
minus Jay-Z. (Sorry guys, the day job calls. He’s
touring in Europe).
The Knicks plan to drop in on LeBron, too.
They can afford James and another max player,
which might be what they need to finally get
going again after a franchise-worst nine straight

MINNEAPOLIS
(AP)
— One night after watching 39-year-old slugger Jim

Denard Span put his young
legs to work in a big, big

Span tied a modern-era

Tuesday night.
“He definitely inspired

Serena, not Venus, still
around for the semifinals
WIMBLEDON, England — So much for a fifth all-inthe-family final at Wimbledon.
Five-time Wimbledon champion Venus Williams doubled-faulted five times, made a total of 29 unforced errors
and was beaten 6-2, 6-3 Tuesday by Tsvetana Pironkova
of Bulgaria, the lowest-ranked woman still in the draw.
On Thursday, Pironkova will face No. 21 Vera Zvonareva
of Russia, who came back to oust No. 8 Kim Clijsters 3-6,
6-4, 6-2.
Defending champion Serena Williams smacked 11 aces
— lifting her total for the tournament to a Wimbledonrecord 73, one more than she hit last year — and made
only six unforced errors in a 7-5, 6-3 victory over No. 9
Li Na of China.
She next faces yet another unheralded member of this
year’s final four, 62nd-ranked Petra Kvitova of the Czech

Funeral service: The body of Manute Bol lay in an 8-
foot-long, specially built casket in the vast splendor of the
ornate Washington National Cathedral. There couldn’t
have been a more appropriate setting for a man who
seemed larger than life in so many ways.
The 7-foot-7 former NBA player who worked diligently
to improve conditions in his native Sudan was remembered as a shot-blocker to be feared and a humanitarian
to be loved at a funeral service Tuesday. Bol died June
19 at age 47 at the University of Virginia Hospital in
Charlottesville, shortly after returning from a lengthy
trip to Sudan. He had contracted a painful skin condition
known as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and was suffering
from severe kidney problems.
Ming returning: Yao Ming is returning to the Houston
Rockets — a giant selling point for general manager
Daryl Morey as he begins courting big-name free agents
this week.
The 7-foot-6 All-Star center said Tuesday that he has
picked up his player option for next season, the last year
of his five-year contract. Yao sat out last season following
reconstructive foot surgery and said he wanted to see
how the injury healed before making his decision.
Nets make deal: The New Jersey Nets traded forward
Yi Jianlian to the Washington Wizards on Tuesday, creating even more room under the salary cap as they head
into free agency. The Wizards dealt forward Quinton
Ross to the Nets, who also sent an undisclosed amount
of cash to Washington. Yi was the No. 6 pick in the 2007
draft by Milwaukee and has now been traded twice. He
averaged career highs of 12.0 points and 7.0 rebounds last
season, but was limited to 51 games because of injury.

his own rebound, finally breaking down Portugal’s

in the World Cup quarterfinal. Spain will play Paraguay
in the quarterfinals on Saturday. Paraguay advanced
to the World Cup quarterfinals for the first time with a
5-3 victory over Japan in penalty kicks after a 0-0 draw
Tuesday.
Consider changes: With pressure for video replay
mounting after two blatant missed calls at the World
Cup, FIFA president Sepp Blatter said soccer’s governing
body will reopen the issue after the tournament.
Blatter said Tuesday that FIFA deplores “when you see
the evidence of refereeing mistakes.” It would be “a nonsense” not to consider changes, he said.
Crew prevails: Steven Lenhart scored on an awkward
half volley in the fourth minute of stoppage time to give
the Columbus Crew a 2-1 victory over the Rochester
Rhinos in a round of 16 in the U.S. Open Cup. The Crew
will play the winner of the Charleston-Chicago match
being played later Tuesday.

“We’ve had to live through
some tough times in order to
get where you think you start
rebuilding the franchise,”
team president Donnie Walsh
said. “We have that opportunity now. How well, how fast
we can rebuild the team can
be shortcut by getting great
players.”
They’ll have plenty of
competition. The Heat,
Nets, Chicago Bulls and Los
Angeles Clippers can offer
max deals to James’ class,
which would pay about $16.6
million next season. Chicago
and New Jersey made trades
in recent days to push them
closer to joining the Knicks
with enough to offer two
max deals, and the Heat can
keep Wade, give an additional max contract and have
enough left over for another
quality player.
So much for the theory that
free agency isn’t the route
to building a winner in the
NBA, where top players
rarely leave because their
teams can offer them more
money. (James would give
up about $30 million if he
bolts Cleveland).
The Knicks traded away
Jamal Crawford and Zach
Randolph — the NBA’s top
sixth man and a first-time
All-Star, respectively — to
get their $34 million in room.

10th-inning double dooms Reds
CINCINNATI
(AP)
— Arthur Rhodes’ recordtying streak couldn’t survive a determined rally by
the Philadelphia Phillies.
Raul Ibanez ended the
left-hander’s streak of
scoreless appearances with
a run-scoring double in the
10th inning Tuesday night,
sending Philadelphia to a
soothing 9-6 victory over
the Cincinnati Reds.
The day started badly for
the Phillies, who put half of
their starting infield on the
disabled list. It got worst
when Joey Votto hit a tying,
three-run homer with
two outs in the ninth off
Brad Lidge (1-0), leaving
the game in the hands of
Cincinnati’s best reliever.
Rhodes (2-2) had allowed
only one run all season,
way back on April 10.
Since then, he had made 33
straight scoreless appearances, matching the major
leagues’ season record.
“You hate to see Arthur’s
streak end like that,” manager Dusty Baker said. “He
was facing some tough hitters. All good things must
come to an end.”
It ended fast. Rhodes
faced four batters and
didn’t retire any of them.
“It’s over,” Rhodes said.
“Now I’ve got to start
another one.”
Ryan Howard started
Philadelphia’s rally with
a leadoff double, a hint
that things had turned
for Rhodes. Jayson Werth
walked, and Ibanez doubled off Drew Stubbs’ glove
at the wall in center to put
the Phillies back in control.
“It would have been a
tough game for us to lose,”
manager Charlie Manuel
said. “It was a good win, a
tremendous win.”
Philadelphia put third
baseman Placido Polanco
and second baseman Chase
Utley on the disabled list
before the game, a stunning
setback for the defending
NL champs. The Phillies
aren’t sure how long they
will be out.
For one night, their fillins did fine.
Wilson Valdez started at
SUMMER
Two more advance: Spain’s David Villa scored off
resulting in a 12-70 record
but hope for a quick turnaround. Miami essentially
left Wade to play by himself
this season in exchange for
the chance to get him more
help then he could ever want
starting Thursday.
“It is an ’all-in’ strategy,
in that even when it works,
you’re going to have to operate with a very low payroll,” Rockets general manager Daryl Morey said. “If it
doesn’t work, it can be catastrophic in terms of if you
strike out, it’s going to be
very difficult to be competitive. But every team is doing
the best they can. That may
be the best path they have
available.”
The potential crop made
it too hard for some teams
not to try. The clock started
ticking four summers ago,
when James, Wade and Bosh
passed on maximum-length
extensions on their rookie
contracts in favor of shorter
deals that allowed them to
opt for free agency this summer. Momentum kept building as fears grew that owners will seek radical changes
in length and value of contracts next summer when the
league’s collective bargaining agreement expires. That
made it wise for a player like
Nowitzki, even if he has no
intention of leaving Dallas,
to exercise his early termination option now and sign a
new deal under the current
rules.

second base for the first
time this season and hit
his third homer, a three-run
shot off well-rested rookie
Mike Leake. He also drove
in a run on a fielder’s choice
in the 10th, matching his
career high with four RBIs.
Brian Schneider also
had a three-run homer off
Leake, who had his last
turn skipped to cut down
on his innings. The 22year-old has thrown 951/3
innings — the most by any
NL rookie — prompting
the Reds to skip his turn
last week.
Pitching for the first time
in eight days, Leake left
several pitches right down
the middle. He gave up
seven hits and six runs in
six innings. In his last four
starts, Leake is 0-2 with a
6.85 ERA.
Cardinals 8, Diamondbacks 0
ST. LOUIS — Albert Pujols homered twice and doubled with a seasonhigh five RBIs and Adam Wainwright
handcuffed the Arizona Diamondbacks
into the seventh inning in the St. Louis
Cardinals’ victory.
Dontrelle Willis (1-1) had another wild
outing for the Diamondbacks, walking
six, hitting a batter and getting lucky on
a really wild pitch thrown behind a batter that caromed back to catcher Miguel
Montero for a tag play at the plate in
the fourth.

Favre, at his wishy-washy
best, only dreams about.
We’ve been treated to a
“LeBron free-agent clock,”
a “LeBron Tracker” and
dozens of conspiracy theories about why he’ll wind
up where, including one
that reaches into the Oval
Office.
And all that for a ballplayer who has yet to
win even one game in the
finals, let alone a championship.
Let’s be clear: At 25,
James is already one of
the best players in the
game, with almost unlimited upside. And he has,
for the most part, been a
model citizen. He’s poised,
polite, accessible, generous
with his time and money,
durable and he plays hard

but how the Gamecocks
accomplished it. South
Carolina (54-16) trailed in
the middle innings of all
three of its NCAA regional
games and had to win two
one-run games in the super
regionals to make it to the
College World Series.
Once they got to Omaha,
the Gamecocks lost their
first game and had to stave
off elimination four times to
reach the finals, even winning one game after being
down to their last strike.
In a fitting end to a fantastic season, South Carolina
came from behind again
Tuesday night, tying the
game in the eighth inning
and beating UCLA (5117) in the 11th on Whit
Merrifield’s RBI single.
“It’s just a great run,”
Tanner said. “You have to
have a lot of things happen for you and you have
to have the right kind of

every night. It’s worth noting, too, that while James
has plenty of people on the
payroll to feed the hype
machine, he’s done very
little of that himself.
Yet some people theorize that James is not only
enjoying all the fuss, but
that he’s dragging out free
agency as a way to make
up for the college recruiting
tour he never took. Except
in this instance, the money
is on the table — roughly
$90 million for five years
if he leaves Cleveland;
$125 million for six if he
stays — instead of under it.
Could be.
Either way, ceding that
much power to one player
could only happen in
the NBA. The league has
always been a sucker for
potential, because only five
players are on the floor
at any given moment and
one supremely talented
individual like James can
make a world of difference.
What’s made this pending
negotiation bigger still is
the notion that James and
one or more of his freeagent sidekicks might band
together and dictate terms
instead of letting all the
pieces fall where they may.
The scenarios are too
speculative to waste too
much time and space
here. Suffice it to say the
latest involve James and
Toronto’s Chris Bosh heading to Chicago, where he
would join fast-rising star
Derrick Rose and Joakim
Noah while trying to replicate the half-dozen titles
won by childhood idol
Michael Jordan; or James
and Bosh being recruited
by fellow superstar and
former U.S. Olympic team
member Dwyane Wade to
people around you. But it’s
not impossible to be sitting
where we are. But the odds
are against you being here.
No matter how good your
program is, there are a lot of
great programs out there.”
The Gamecocks won six
straight games after losing
their CWS opener against
Oklahoma, and became the
third first-time champion
since 2006 after sweeping
the best-of-three series.
Each team had plenty of
scoring chances, but had
difficulty converting in
Rosenblatt’s finale. A video
tribute to the stadium, fireworks and a trumpeter playing a slow version of “Take
Me Out to the Ballgame”
finished Rosenblatt’s 61year run.
It was the fifth championship decided in an extrainning final, and first since
Southern California topped
Florida State — also 2-1 —
in 15 innings in 1970.
“You start in February
with 300 teams and you get
a chance to go to postseason, and maybe to a super
regional, and then you have
things go right for you and
you go to Omaha,” Tanner
said. “And you get to play
in the national championship series. And you’re the
last team standing. Just a
wonderful, wonderful time
for our players and coaches.”
Merrifield was surprised
UCLA closer Dan Klein
didn’t intentionally walk
him and Jackie Bradley Jr.,
the CWS Most Outstanding
Player, to set up potential
forceouts all around and a
possible double play.
“When I saw the catcher squat down, I knew I
had something to prove,”
Merrifield said. “They
wanted to get me out.”

build a new dynasty under
Riley’s guidance in Miami.
LeBron has dropped
precious few clues about
his choice, and just about
everybody else in a position to know would incur
a hefty fine for doing the
same thing. Beyond his
intention to insure that his
family is well-fed, James
says he’ll base his decision on which organization
gives him the best chance
to win in short order.

story. It would let James
remain a local hero, and
the Colts’ Peyton Manning
continues to prove in
Indianapolis, you can make
plenty of money even in
a medium-sized market if
you win.
But doing it with the
salary-capped Cavaliers
is going to be a stretch, at
least for the foreseeable
future.
Ditto for the Knicks and
Nets, which have plenty

runs — three earned — and
six hits over 6 1-3 innings
to improve to 3-0 in five
career starts against the Blue
Jays. In his previous start
Thursday at Philadelphia,
he allowed seven runs over
four innings.
“Much better tonight,”
Carmona said after piling
up 12 of his first 15 outs
on grounders — including
four bouncers hit right back
to him. “I used the sinker,
some sliders, and had very
good defense behind me.”
Kerry Wood worked the
ninth for his third save in
three games and eighth in
11 chances overall. The last
time the right-hander had
three saves in three days
was June 1-3, 2008, with the
Chicago Cubs.
“This is something we can
all build off of,” Wood said.
“The starters are giving us
a chance to win and the
entire bullpen is doing the
job. Everybody is on a roll
right now.
Wood hit Jose Molina
in the middle of the back
with a curveball to open
the inning, then struck out
pinch-hitter John Buck and
got Fred Lewis to bounce
into a game-ending double
play.
“The most deflating thing
is to lead for eight innings
and lose in one,” Acta said.
“Wood was big.”
Brandon Morrow (5-6)
struck out eight over six
innings and Adam Lind
broke out of a 1-for-17
slump with a two-run single for Toronto, which has
lost seven of nine.

Barbara Eden fans can

NEW YORK (AP) — Barbara Eden

Hagman played the astronaut who
found her on a beach and is constantly
trying to keep her existence a secret.
Jimmy Buffett show postponed
GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) — Tourism
is taking another hit on Alabama’s
coast following the postponement of
a free Jimmy Buffett concert that was
scheduled this week.
Business on the coast was already
off by about half from the oil spill.
Promoters hoped the Thursday show
on the beach at Gulf Shores would
boost visitors for the Fourth of July
weekend.
But organizers had to postpone the
show until July 11 because of the threat
of high surf from Tropical Storm Alex.
The storm is approaching the coast of
Texas and Mexico.

NEW YORK (AP) — CNN
is preparing for a summertime search to find the successor to Larry King, who
announced suddenly that
he’s leaving the show that
has been the centerpiece of
the news network’s lineup
for 25 years.
Even though the host is
changing, CNN will keep
to the idea of a provocative interview show with
newsmakers, CNN U.S.
President Jon Klein said.
“Nobody else does it,” he
said. “It’s an important tool
in the arsenal, and we want
to keep it going.”
King’s announcement
Tuesday came a couple of
weeks after he celebrated
his 25th anniversary with
a week of shows interviewing President Barack
Obama, LeBron James,
Bill Gates and Lady Gaga
— precisely the unique
blend of stars and statesmen he considered the
signature of “Larry
King Live.”
King, 76, said he
will continue to do
occasional specials
for CNN after stepping down in the fall.
He was already lobbying for guests for his final
week on Tuesday, extracting a promise to appear
from ABC’s Diane Sawyer
when she called in to his
show to congratulate
winners
James Earl
Jones and
Vanessa
Redgrave
will costar this
fall in the
Jones
Redgrave
Broadway
premiere
of “Driving Miss Daisy.”
The Pulitzer Prize-winning play will
begin performances on Oct. 7 at the
John Golden Theatre, with an official
opening on Oct. 25.
Megan Fox marries longtime
beau Brian Austin Green
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Megan Fox
has tied the knot with longtime boyfriend Brian Austin Green.
Fox’s publicist Dominique Appel said
Tuesday the couple was “happily married.”
The 24-year-old
actress became
engaged to Green
earlier this month
for the second
time.
The pair
was previously
engaged
in 2006.
Fox
and
Green,
36, have
been dating
for several
years. It’s the
first marriage
for both.

Misty Tinkle, of Hagerstown, Ind., looks over at her
husband, Bryan, Tuesday evening at the Skyvue DriveIn before a midnight showing of “The Twilight Saga:
Eclipse” in New Castle, Ind. Misty, who is supposed
to be on bed rest for her pregnancy, is naming her
soon-to-be daughter Bella, after a character from the
series.
LOS ANGELES (AP) —
The latest “Twilight” movie
already has one record
under its belt as it opens
with the widest domestic
release in box-office history.
“The Twilight Saga:
Eclipse” was booked in a
record 4,416 theaters for
its debut Wednesday. That
beats the previous record of
4,380 theaters set less than
two months ago by “Iron
Man 2.”
Along with midnight
screenings, some theaters
are scheduling showings at
3 a.m. to meet demand as
fans line up for the movie.
The second installment in
the vampire-romance franchise, last November’s “The
Twilight Saga: New Moon,”
leads the box-office charts
for best opening day with
$72.7 million. The movie’s
opening weekend of $142.8
million is No. 3 on the alltime chart.

pared, but he was good at
making his guests feel comfortable.
King slipped in the ratings behind Fox News
Channel and MSNBC —
two networks that didn’t
exist when he first turned
on his TV microphone.
King said he felt no pressure from CNN to leave.
He said he began thinking
about stepping down as a
plane flew him home to Los

he interviewed James, and
he reflected on his big-name
guests of the week.
“I said, ’I can’t top this,’”
King recalled in an interview Tuesday.
“I’m tired of the nightly
grind,” he said. “I do want
to do other things, but
I want to stay at
CNN in some way
... . There’s a case of
great mixed emotions.”
CBS News anchor
Katie Couric has
long been considered
a potential successor
to King.
Recent published
reports have suggested that “America’s
Got Talent” judge Piers
Morgan could be a candidate. King said if it were
up to him, “American
Idol” host Ryan Seacrest
would be the best choice
to fill his shoes.

host was a pioneer in cable
television.
From the first show,
on which he interviewed
then-New York Gov. Mario
Cuomo, King’s desk was
considered a valued spot
for anyone interested in
talking to the nation. King’s
interview style was plainspoken, and critics would

Horoscope
Tribune Media Services
Today’s birthday (6/30/10).
Aim high! This year you
achieve more if you set
goals that seem out of
reach.
To get the advantage,
check the day’s rating: 10 is
the easiest day, 0 the most
challenging.
Aries (March 21-April
19) -- Today is a 6 -- Take
careful aim as you pursue
independent action. Other
people want to jump on the
bandwagon. But today’s for
you. Wait to take passengers.
Taurus (April 20-May
20) -- Today is a 5 -- Think
through yesterday’s work.
Edit carefully, and then present to the public. People
need time to absorb these
ideas, before making decisions.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
-- Today is a 6 -- Get out of
town with a favorite person.
You both need time off to
rejuvenate and refresh.
Spending time outdoors
replenishes your spirit.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
-- Today is a 5 -- Begin the
day by seeking a solution to
a financial question. Explore
unusual avenues, and you
find answers that satisfy
both your wallet and values.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 5 -- Someone
else is pulling the strings,
regarding money matters. A
healthy attitude would be to
allow them the reins, as long
as you reserve the right of
final decision.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- Today is a 5 -- You begin
to wonder if everyone’s
ideas will fit into one finished
project. Keep any ideas
removed from the mix for
the future.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) - Today is a 5 -- If there was
ever a day to spread some
love around, this is it. Share
a smile with everyone you
meet. Remove criticism from
the conversation.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov.
21) -- Today is a 5 -- Home
is not where your heart is
right now. That part of you
has gone on vacation, in
a sunny locale. Keep your
mind focused on today’s
tasks.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) -- Today is a 5
-- Research a potential
vacation site. Imagine yourself there, with family or
companions. Share your
vision before you confirm
reservations.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- Today is a 5 -- Today
feels rather dull, as you
tackle questions from the
financial department. You
see the potential for the
future. Budget to get there.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.
18) -- Today is a 6 -Imagination gets inspired by
a dream or meditation symbol. Use it to develop a story
to grow the spark. Read it to
a friend before publishing.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March
20) -- Today is a 5 -- Unique
ideas face an uphill battle
with a controlling person.
Don’t plan on getting everything you want. Settle for
what you need.
