Afghan killings
Wife defends soldier accused in rampage

SEATAC, Wash. (AP) The wife of a U.S. soldier accused of killing 17 Afghan civilians says her husband showed no signs of PTSD before he deployed, and adds that she doesnt feel like shell ever believe he was involved in the killings. Karilyn Bales defended her husband, Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, in an interview with Matt Lauer for NBCs Today show that aired on Monday. The Washington state woman said her husband joined the Army after the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, to protect his family, friends and country. He wanted to do his part, and added that her husband is very brave, very courageous. Officials say Bales wandered off base in southern Afghanistan earlier this month and killed eight Afghan adults and nine children. The wife of the Joint Base Lewis-McChord soldier said the accusations are unbelievable to me. He loves children, hes like a big kid himself, she said. I have no idea what happened, but he would not ... he loves children, and he would not do that. He was formally charged Friday with 17 counts of premeditated murder and other crimes. She said he never had nightmares or other signs

She also said he never told her about a traumatic brain injury he suffered while in Iraq, until he returned home. He shielded me from a lot of what he went through. Hes a very tough guy. U.S. investigators have said they believe Bales killed in two episodes, returning to his base after the first attack and later slipping away to kill again. He is reported to have surrendered without a struggle. The 38-year-old married father of two from Lake Tapps, Wash., is being held at a U.S. military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.

Wurst uses music to make others happy

DELPHOSWhen 15-year-old Emma Wurst auditioned for Ohio Has Talent!, she had originally planned to just play the piano. When she got up in front of the judges, she changed her act spontaneously. I was there playing the piano for people when someone came in and said they had a spot to fill and asked if I wanted to go next, Wurst said. I was originally just going to play the piano but I ended up singing, too. It was all very on the spot. I didnt really have time to be nervous. Wurst, a freshman at Jefferson, has taken both voice and piano lessons and is no stranger to performing. Ive been playing the piano for about three and a half years, almost four, she said. Im in choir and Ive been singing for a long time but its been within the last two and a half years that I started really taking it seriously. Ive been performing in the school talent show we do here every year and Ive done Blue Ribbon Festivals

I actually decided to do it when I saw a sign-up sheet in the choir room, she said. I thought it would be really fun and interesting to do it. I figured it would be a good experience. Also, I think my dad will really enjoy it. Hes leaving for Afghanistan in May, so this will be something special I can do for him before he leaves.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) Organizers of an annual Easter egg hunt attended by hundreds of children have canceled this years event, citing the behavior of aggressive parents who swarmed into the tiny park last year, determined that their kids get an egg. That hunt was over in seconds, to the consternation of egg-less tots and their own parents. Too many parents had jumped a rope set up to allow only children into Bancroft Park in a historic area of Colorado Springs. Organizers say the event has outgrown its original intent of being a neighborhood event. Parenting observers cite the cancellation as a prime example of so-called helicopter parents those who hover over their children and are involved in every aspect of their childrens lives sports, school, and increasingly work to ensure that they dont fail, even at an Easter egg hunt. They couldnt resist getting over the rope to help their kids, said Ron Alsop, a former Wall Street Journal reporter and author of The Trophy Kids Grow Up, which exam-

ines the millennial children generation. Thats the perfect metaphor for millennial children. They (parents) cant stay out of their childrens lives. They dont give their children enough chances to learn from hard knocks, mistakes. Alsop and others say the parenting phenomenon began in earnest when Baby Boomers who decorated their cars with Baby on Board signs in the 1980s began having children. It has prompted at least two New York companies to establish take your parent to work day for new recruits as parents remain involved even after their children become adults. Last Aprils egg hunt, sponsored by the Old Colorado City Association, attracted hundreds of parents and children and experienced a few technical difficulties, said Mazie Baalman, owner of Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and sponsor of the event. There was no place to hide the plastic eggs, which were filled with donated candy or coupons redeemable at nearby businesses. So thousands of eggs were placed in plain view on the grass.

system that was hard to hear. So everybody thinks you said Go, and everybody goes, and its over in seconds, Baalman said. If one parent gets in there, other parents say, If one can get in we all can get in, and everybody goes. Jennifer Rexford used to live near the park and now lives in Galveston, Texas. She said she used to participate in public Easter egg hunts with her three boys, ages 3, 8, and 14. She doesnt anymore because of pushy parents she experienced at hunts in Florida and Texas. It just seems to be the mindset. People just want the best for their kids, Rexford said. Lenny Watkins, who lives a block away from Bancroft Park, took his friends then 4-year-old son to the hunt in 2009. I just remember having a wonderful time, him with his Easter basket Watson said, adding that he can understand why a parent would step in. You have all these eggs just lying around, and parents helping out. You better believe Im going to help my kid get one of those eggs. I promised my kid an Easter egg hunt and Id want to give him an even edge.

Standing up for women

cal efforts that help women and their children protect themselves from domestic violence, stalking, and cyberthreats continue only on a short-term basis. Failure to reauthorize VAWA would have devastating consequences for women, law enforcement, and communities in Ohio. For women, VAWA resources mean the difference between struggling in silence and beginning the long road to emotional recovery with help from a strong support network. Womens shelters and domestic violence centers would have trouble existing without VAWA. These are the very organizations that connect women with legal help, emergency housing, transportation, and lock services. Ohio Alliance to End Sexual Violence State Director Katie Hanna recently shared a story with me from a woman who said, as someone who was sexually abused I wish I had a program or someone to turn to besides being left to just deal with it. VAWA has also improved the criminal justice systems ability to keep survivors safe and hold perpetrators accountable. Reauthorizing VAWA would invest in state grant programs like the Grants to Encourage Arrest Policies and Enforcement Protection Orders program that help law enforcement respond to sexual assault crimes. For law enforcement officials like the 2011 Summit County Detective of the Year Vito Sinopoli, a Bath Township police officer, VAWA reauthorization means having the resources needed to train more than 850 police officers throughout Ohio and 20 prosecutors who are often among the first responders to domestic violence survivors. Communities should not
STATE/LOCAL
Women in Ohio and throughout the United States deserve leaders who are willing to fight for them. Yet, a vital law that protects women has expired. Domestic violence affects women, families, and communities in major cities, small towns, and rural communities in our state. More than 70,000 Ohioans made domestic dispute calls in 2010 and 74 percent of the callers were women. That is why the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is so important. VAWA which is typically reauthorized with bipartisan support every five years provides resources for local and state organizations to combat domestic, sexual, and psychological violence against women. But last year, the law expired. And criti-
Company wont allow safe-sex ad on billboard

COLUMBUS (AP) Plans for a safe-sex ad campaign in central Ohio have hit a snag as one billboard company refuses to accept a spot featuring a shirtless man and an arrow pointing down there. The Columbus Public Health departments Take Care Down There campaign is targeted at young gay men. The Columbus Dispatch reports Clear Channel wont accept the ad for a downtown billboard. A spokesman says the company objects to the arrow, because families and children would see it. A health department spokesman says losing the arrow would dilute the message. Its seeking out other companies to post the ad. The $20,000 campaign is funded by federal money aimed at preventing sexually transmitted diseases. It will also use radio spots, print ads, bar coasters, business cards and social media sites.

Rib Fest Planning Committee welcomes new member

Information submitted Planning for this summers annual Rib Fest has moved into high gear with lots of great entertainment and plenty of fun activities being planned for the whole family. Details of these events will be released in the near future. The Rib Fest Planning Committee had a surprise visitor at its last meeting ... a new volunteer who wants to help make this the best rib event in the area. Pig, as he introduced himself, explained he recently run away from old McDonalds farm outside of Victor, New York, because I felt I wasnt appreciated. He said, I had a lot of ideas for improving the lives of local swine and the image of pigs in general but old farmer McDonald wouldnt listen to any of my suggestions. I came to Van Wert hoping to be of help in your efforts. After conferring with the Planning Committee, Convention and Visitors Bureau President, Dave Roach, welcomed Pig as a member of the committee. It
have to confront this national problem without national support. Thats why Im fighting to reauthorize VAWA in the Senate. The bill has bipartisan support, but it remains stalled in the Senate because some Washington politicans refuse to bring it to a vote. As a husband and father of daughters and your Senator I find this blatant inaction unacceptable. Reauthorizing VAWA now would provide tools for law enforcement, survivor service providers, and court personnel to better identify and manage high risk offenders and prevent domestic violence homicides. Immediate VAWA reauthorization would help with primary prevention programs so children grow up learning the importance of healthy and safe relationships. Reauthorizing VAWA is long overdue.

Courts health ruling may shake fall elections

JIM KUHNHENN Associated Press WASHINGTON The Supreme Courts ruling on the constitutionality of President Barack Obamas health care overhaul is likely to shake the presidential election race in early summer but the winners in the court will not necessarily be the winners in the political arena. No doubt, a decision to throw out the entire law would be a defeat for Obama. His judgment and leadership, even his reputation as a former constitutional law professor, would be called into question for pushing through a contentious and partisan health insurance overhaul only to see it declared unconstitutional by the court. It would not spell certain doom for his re-election. In fact, it would end the GOP argument that a Republican president must be elected to guarantee repeal of the law. It also could re-energize liberals, shift the spotlight onto insurance companies and reignite a debate about how to best provide health care. If the court upholds the law, Obama would be vindicated legally. Republican constitutional criticisms would be undercut because five of the nine justices were nominated by Republican presidents. Opposition would intensify in the political world. Without legal recourse, Republicans would gain new energy to argue that the only path to kill the law would be to elect a Republican president and enough GOP candidates to control the House and Senate. They might be wary of promising overnight repeal because a filibusterproof Senate majority seems beyond their reach in the November election. Central to the dispute over the law is a provision that requires individuals to have health insurance by 2014 or pay a penalty. Polls show that this mandate is opposed by 3 of 5 Americans. Among Republicans, calls for its repeal are a surefire applause line. Of the four federal appeals courts that have ruled, two upheld the law, one struck down only the insurance mandate and one punted, saying an obscure tax law makes it premature to decide the merits until the main coverage provisions take effect in 2014. With the court hearing arguments today through Wednesday, operatives from both parties have been playing out the potential outcomes. Its a calculation complicated by the intensely polarized public attitudes toward the law, by the still unsettled race for the Republican nomination and, most important, by the range of potential decisions by the court. A lot of the arguments
One Year Ago The JETS Team from Fort Jennings High School recently captured first place in the Junior Engineering Technology Society (JETS) at Ohio Northern University in Ada. Team members include Heather Hofstetter, Alyssa Piasecki, Krista Baldauf, Ethan Schimmoeller, Kegan Sickles, Andrew Huntsman, Nolan Kaverman and Lacy Hittle. 25 Years Ago 1987 The March meeting of the Frills and Frogs, Ohio Child Conservation League, began with the club meeting at church for a short talk by the Rev. John Shanahan. The group then moved to Marie Rickers. Election of officers was held with the following results: president, Lois Grone; vice president, Pam Cook; secretary, Sandi Von Sossan; and treasurer, Linda Gasser. Members of the Delphos Chapter of Office Education Association were recently honored with having their chapter activities yearbook selected as the second best in the state in a competition held at the Ohio Center and Hyatt Regency Hotel in Columbus. Brian Fetzer, historian of the junior chapter, accepted the trophy at the banquet held in the ballroom. Hands That Rock the Future Chapter of Ohio Child Conservation League met at the home of Elaine Ulm with Darlene Moenter co-hostess. Devotions were given by Ulm, followed by a short business meeting. Plans were finalized for May 9 as a husbands party and progressive dinner. 50 Years Ago 1962 The bands from both Delphos Jefferson and Delphos St. Johns high schools and the choir and girls glee club from Jefferson all received high ratings in district music contests held Saturday in Kenton and Bluffton. All three units from Jefferson received ratings of superior and will compete in the state contest to be held in Ada next month. St. Johns band, competing for the first time, received a rating of good. Marie Unterbrink of Cincinnati, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roman (Helen Kaverman) Unterbrink, has been notified by the National Red Cherry Institute that she is one of 53 finalists in the National Red Tart Cherry Recipe for 1962. The Unterbrinks are former residents of Delphos. Marie is the granddaughter of Cecelia Kaverman, South Clay Street. William Buschor, son of Florence Buschor of Delphos, is a member of a team of University of Detroit architecture students helping to design a proposed United Nations University.

Obama confronts nuclear threats on world stage
Moderately confused
WASHINGTON (AP) Far from home if not away from election-year politics, President Barack Obama is returning to the threat to American security that he calls the gravest of all: terrorists getting material for a nuclear bomb. In South Korea, where Obama is headed, the president will join a massive gathering of world leaders whose united goal is to secure nuclear material and prevent it from being smuggled to states or groups intent on mass destruction. Right across the border but not participating: nuclear North Korea, labeled by the White House as the odd man out. It is brinksmanship with North Korea and Iran, another nation not invited to the summit, that has dominated much of the nuclear debate and that will cast an unquestionable shadow over talks in Seoul. Obamas mission over three days in the South Korean capital will be to show progress in pressuring North Korea to change its rogue ways and in approaching a lofty goal of locking down nuclear material around the globe by 2014. For a president up for reelection, this will be a rare Asia trip devoted to just one country, built around a nuclear security summit that carries his imprint. Obama held the first one in Washington two years ago. This one is considered a status check and a time for nations to offer new and tangible pledges, but no breakthroughs are expected. Up first on his agenda: his first visit to the most fortified border in the world. Obamas symbolic visit to the Demilitarized Zone separating the Korean peninsula will be the fourth by a U.S. president. The others were Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush; other U.S. officials regularly go to the DMZ. About 60 years after the Korean War ended with an armistice, hundreds of thousands of troops stand ready on both sides of the border zone, which is littered with land minds and encased in razor wire. Obama officials said the goal is to thank U.S. and South Korean military members and show U.S. resolve from the front line of democracy on the peninsula. The United States has more than 28,000 troops in South Korea, a legacy of the Korean War six decades ago. North Korea plans to launch a long-range rocket next month, which the U.S. and other powers say would violate a U.N. ban on nuclear and missile activity because the same technology could be used for long-range missiles. On top of that, the U.S. has warned that a deal to resume stalled food aid to the North could be jeopardized if North Korea goes ahead. North Korea has built and tested nuclear devices and is considered a suspect in the spread of nuclear know-how and weapons of mass destruction to other countries. The planned missile launch appears part of a long pattern of steps forward but then backward in U.S. dealings with North Korea and plays into Republican claims that Obama is being played the fool.
5 ways GOP could settle nomination

CONNIE CASS Associated Press WASHINGTON Are we there yet? Not quite. Mitt Romneys two steps forward, one flub back campaign continues its tantalizing progress toward a total victory that always seems just ahead. Still, the Republican presidential race has got to end sometime, whether its April or August. Here are five ways to settle this thing: The likeliest route: Romney pulls off a clean win by the time the last state votes in June. Sure, hes cutting it closer than hed like, but if Romney keeps up his current pace he can win the necessary majority 1,144 delegates by June 26, if not sooner. Lastchance Utah, where Romney is embraced by a large population of fellow Mormons, would make a poignant wrapup. After Louisianas primary Saturday, 21 states and the District of Columbia have yet to vote, and Romneys about halfway to the magic number, according to The Associated Press delegate count. If he hits his mathematical mark or if his only rival within shouting distance, Rick Santorum, drops out Romney instantly becomes the presumptive nominee and the general election race is on. But Santorum and Newt Gingrich are trying to prevent that tidy Romney finish by sticking in the contest and drawing away votes. That strategy comes as many Republicans are eager to choose a champion and turn the partys attention to defeating President Barack Obama. Flying to the rescue: Superdelegates can speed up the finish. They were empowered just for this sort of scenario. All members of the Republican National Committee automatically attend the nominating convention, and 117 of them are superdelegates whose state party rules leave them free to vote however they choose. So far most have stayed on the sidelines while the primary plays out. Romneys big win in Illinois and a growing sense of inevitability may draw more superdelegates to endorse him, allowing him to claim the status of presumptive nominee sooner than he otherwise could. If Romney comes up just shy in the state-by-state voting, superdelegates could push him over the top before the Republican National Convention. They would have plenty of incentive to cut to the finale. The goal when the GOP meets Aug. 27 in Tampa, Fla., is four scripted days of television that play like a campaign commercial for the nominee, not a reality show full of squabbling factions. The Republicans understand the risks of taking this family feud to the convention, said Democrat Donna Brazile, who advised Bill Clintons presidential campaigns. Any public bickering would be especially poorly timed this year: The Democrats meticulously crafted convention, showcasing a president who faced no challengers within his party, comes the week after the Republicans meet. A contested convention: Suddenly the long-winded roll call of the states gets interesting. If Romney fails to snag the necessary delegates, Republicans can buckle up for their most tumultuous convention since Ronald Reagan nearly stole the nomination from President Gerald Ford in 1976. Ford, lifted to the presidency through Richard Nixons resignation, had accumulated more delegates than the more conservative, charismatic Reagan. But Ford was short of a majority, leaving the Kansas City conventions outcome in doubt. A rules fight launched and lost by the Reagan forces added to the drama. The tension didnt ease until the roll call vote: Ford eked out the nomination, 1,187 votes to 1,070. Like Ford, Romneys goal would be to coax more people to his side for that crucial first vote, when most delegates are obligated by state party rules to support the candidate chosen by the voters back home. If Romney doesnt win that first round, things could get chaotic. Winning by losing: Santorum grabs the chance hes been waiting for. This is the scenario Santorums campaign is pushing to explain how he could still get the nomination after trailing in primary voting. If no candidate wins a majority in the first round, GOP rules require roll call after roll call until one person emerges with a majority. After the first round, the delegates are mostly free to back whomever they want, so bargaining can begin in earnest.
that are being made against it right now are that they violate basic constitutional rights and principles, said Tad Devine, a veteran consultant of Democratic presidential politics. If the Supreme Court, controlled by Republicans, doesnt agree with that, I think its going to be hard to make that argument. If they strike down the mandate, he added, it takes away a lot of the attack against the president on that issue. White House and Obama campaign officials would not publicly discuss the options ahead, worried they would be perceived as trying to influence the court. But the Obama campaign has begun to draw attention to the benefits of the law, hoping to counter the beating the law has taken from the GOP presidential candidates. This past week, it posted a new health care app online where users can find out how the health care law affects them. It also launched a website that features testimonials about the law. The campaigns Obama Twitter account drew attention Thursday to that Faces of Change website and to the laws second anniversary, a day after White House spokesman Jay Carney dismissed any observance of the bills signing as something that only those who toil inside the Beltway focus on.
Santorum lays out a vision in which Romney is weakened by his failure in the first roll call and the party activists, preferring a more conservative candidate, begin migrating to Santorum. The problem with that in the practical sense is it would mean disenfranchising the majority of the Republican voters who voted in the primary process and picked Mitt Romney, to choose someone who got not only less delegates, but far less votes, said Steve Schmidt, who was senior adviser to John McCains 2008 presidential campaign. When delegates are unbound, theres no telling which way theyll turn or how long theyll take. Democrats hold the record: 103 roll calls. Thats how many votes it took to dismiss their two leading candidates and dozens of others in 1924 and settle on littleknown West Virginia lawyer John Davis. He lost in a landslide to Republican President Calvin Coolidge. In a more fortuitous choice, Abraham Lincoln came from behind to win the Republican nomination on the third roll call in 1860. A brokered convention: The powerbrokers toss out the candidates and draft someone new. It sounds crazy after decades of hermetically sealed conventions. And its certainly a long shot. It would mean rejecting everyone whos received actual votes from the Republican faithful. But some delegates might see that as a more appealing way to compromise. The last time one of the two major parties drafted its nominee and the last convention to require more than one roll call was when the Democrats turned to Adlai Stevenson in 1952. The closed conclave of party elders who elevated Warren Harding to the front of the pack at the contentious 1920 Republican convention is believed to be the origin of the term smoke-filled room. The likeliest last-minute possibilities this year, such as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, insist they dont want the call. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, whose name also has been bandied about, put the kibosh on the idea by announcing his endorsement. He said that now is the time for Republicans to unite behind Gov. Romney.

Gossard deploys on USS Enterprise

Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Joseph R. Gossard, son of Judy Gossard of Elida and Gary Gossard of Lima, recently deployed. Gossard along with fellow Saliors and Marines, assigned to the nuclear powered aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN 65), departed Norfolk Naval Station for the ships 22nd and final deployment. Enterprise is slated to deploy to the U.S. Navys 5th and 6th Fleet areas of operation as part of an ongoing rotation of U.S. forces supporting maritime security operations in international waters around the globe. Working with allied and partner maritime forces, the Enterprise and her accompanying strike group will focus heavily on maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts designed to maintain regional stability. The Enterprise Carrier Strike Group consists of approximately 5,500 Sailors and Marines who, during the last few months, successfully completed a series of complex training events and certifications to ensure they were capable of operating effectively and safely together. These skills, which will be vital as the Enterprise Carrier Strike Group travels to the 5th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR) in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), were recently tested during the carriers Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX). For Enterprise, the Navys first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the deployment represents the culmination of more

DELPHOS - Jefferson and Van Wert split the season opening doubleheader Saturday afternoon, the Wildcats taking the opener 8-4, the Cougars the nightcap 5-3. Jefferson cruised to the first game win despite mustering only three hits. Only two of the Wildcats eight runs were earned. Jefferson started the scoring in the bottom of the second. First baseman Curtis Miller led off with a walk. He was forced at second on a ground out by third baseman Austin Jettinghoff. DH Zach Kimmetts fly ball was dropped, putting runners at first and second. Leftfielder Kyle Anspach walked, filling the bases. Catcher Justin Rode drilled a single through the third/short hole, scoring Jettinghoff, and rightfielder Seth Wollenhaupt walked, forcing in Kimmett. The Cougars tied it in the top of the third. Pitcher Joey Hurless led off with a triple to the right field fence. Centerfielder Brandt Henrys infield single brought in Hurless. A balk and a stolen base got Henry to third and he came in on a ground out by second baseman Vince Moreland. The Cats sent 10 players to the plate in the fourth, scoring six times (1 earned) to take an 8-2 lead. Three walks and two Van Wert errors, along with Kimmetts double, Rodes sacrifice bunt and Jettinghoffs single, did enough damage to seal the Cougars fate. Van Wert got two back in the sixth on two Jefferson throwing errors and base hits by rightfielder Tyler Williams and shortstop Nathan Stoller. Jeff Schleeter pitched the first four innings and got the win for Delphos. He was charged with two runs, both earned, giving up four hits and one walk while striking out seven. Zach Ricker threw the last three innings, yielding two runs, none earned, and two hits, striking out five and walking nobody. Hurless took the loss, going 3 2/3 innings, giving up all eight runs, two of which were earned, and two hits. He struck out two and walked six. Zach Wood hurled the last 2 1/3 and he gave up no runs on one hit, walking one and striking out nobody. Leading hitters for Jefferson were Jettinghoff (1-3, 1 run scored, 1 RBI), Kimmett (1-3, 1 double, 2 runs scored), Rode (1-2, 1 RBI) and Wollenhaupt (0-2, 1 run scored, 2 RBIs). Van Wert was led by Hurless (1-4, a triple, 1 run scored), Henry (2-4, including a double, 1 run, 2 RBIs), Williams (1-2, 1 run) and Stoller (2-3). Van Wert got a solid pitching performance by freshman lefty Henry to win the second game 5-3. Henry went six innings, giving up three runs, all earned, on six hits, striking out seven and walking only two. He threw 102 pitches, 59 of which were strikes. Wood finished up, throwing a shutout seventh inning, giving up one hit, striking out one and walking none. The Cougars took a 3-0 lead in the top of the third. With one out, Hurless poked

SELECTED INSPECTED GUARANTEED
ATLANTA Think Kentucky vs. Louisville is a big deal during the regular season? Try the Final Four. Top-seeded Kentucky set up a Bluegrass showdown in the bayou on Sunday, romping past Baylor 82-70 in the South Regional final. The Wildcats took control with a 16-0 run in the first half, led by 20 at the break and cruised to their second straight Final Four. Waiting in New Orleans: their rival from the hoops-crazed state. Louisville had already won its regional, then watched as Kentucky completed the most important matchup ever between schools that are about 65 miles apart. They meet annually during the regular season the Wildcats won 69-62 on New Years Eve and have played four times in the NCAA tournament. But never in the Final Four. We know its going to be a great game, Kentuckys Darius Miller said. That would be a contrast from the win over Baylor a very good team with a daring fashion sense that was simply no match for coach John Caliparis latest group of Fab Freshmen. Trailing 42-22 at halftime, the Bears never got closer than 10 the rest of the way and that was long after Kentucky had taken its foot off the accelerator. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist scored 19 points, Anthony Davis added 18 points and 11 rebounds and Terrence Jones dazzled in all the overlooked areas: rebounds, assists, steals and blocks. This team is better than I thought, Baylor coach Scott Drew said. This is the best team we faced all year ... probably in a couple of years. Two years ago, the bears lost to eventual national champion Duke in another regional final. Duke was a good team, Drew said, but Kentucky is better. Now, the Wildcats (36-2) move to the national semifinals Saturday to face Louisville. Calipari planned to tell his team not to listen to all the hype. The Wildcats have their sights on a national title and Louisville is merely a roadblock on the way to that goal. Ill tell them to get off the message boards, get off Twitter and Facebook, he explained. Dont buy into it. Were going to New Orleans to play a basketball game. Forget about this tournament. Lets go be as good as we can be as a team. But its impossible to get away from the extra significance this game has for both programs. Louisville coach Rick Pitino led Kentucky to a national title in 1996. Then he left for the NBA, only to the return to the college ranks at the Wildcats rival school, sparking plenty of animosity. Calipari, who has been at Kentucky for three seasons, was asked about his relationship with Pitino. Its fine, Calipari replied. I mean, we dont send each
other Christmas cards. But I see him in public. Or in recruiting, well spend some time together. Davis and Kidd-Gilchrist are the latest freshman stars in Caliparis 1-and-done system, two guys who will likely be off to the NBA before they really learned their way around campus. Two years ago, John Wall led Kentucky to the regional final. Last season, Brandon Knight helped the Wildcats reach the Final Four. Now, with those guys in the NBA and Kidd-Gilchrist and Davis likely to be following shortly Big Blue is again positioned to claim its first national title since 1998. But for all the talk about his freshmen, Calipari is getting plenty of contributions from those who hung around beyond their first year. Start with Jones, a sophomore forward who passed up the draft. He scored just one point in the opening half but in the end his fingerprints were all over Kentuckys dominating performance: nine rebounds, six assists, three blocks and two steals most in the first 10 minutes. Quincy Acy led Baylor with 22 points, and Pierre Jackson added 21. Not enough. Not nearly enough. Acy tried to send an early message early that the Bears (30-8) would not be intimidated by the Wildcats. Jones was going in for a fast-break layup when the 235-pound Acy came up from behind, took a whack at the ball but mainly just crashed into the Kentucky player, sending him flying into the Baylor cheerleaders along the baseline. Jones was OK and the officials doled out a flagrant foul on Acy. The Bears, seemingly inspired by Acys bravado, ripped off an 8-0 run that led Calipari to call a timeout. He had yanked Doron Lamb from the game for trying to make the highlight reels rather than taking a layup. The sophomore guard passed up a clear path to the basket, instead opting for a lob pass to the trailing Davis, who missed the dunk. After Quincy Miller hit an uncontested 3-pointer from the top of the lane to give Baylor a 10-5 lead, Calipari lashed into his young team. I told them weve got to step on the gas here, he recalled. Boy, did they ever. Sixteen consecutive points, an NBAlike display of defensive dominance and easy baskets that sent the Georgia Dome and the predominantly blue-clad crowd into a frenzy. Kentuckys only serious scare came early in the second half when Davis went down with an injured left knee. The
6-10 freshman was driving to the basket when he banged into Baylors Perry Jones III, going down along the baseline. A hush fell over the massive stadium as Davis, writhing in pain, grabbed at his knee. Finally, he limped to the bench but it was clear the injury wasnt too serious when the trainers kept flexing the leg, then rubbed it with an ointment to ease the pain. Just a couple of minutes later, he was back in the game.
Kansas 80, North Carolina 67 ST. LOUIS Tyshawn Taylor has yet to hit a 3-pointer in the NCAA tournament. Something about playing in domes, perhaps. The Kansas guard did more than enough without the long-range touch that he can laugh about that 0-for-17 drought. The Jayhawks are in the Final Four, bound for the Superdome in New Orleans, after second-seeded Kansas made all the plays late in an 80-67 victory over top-seeded North Carolina in the Midwest Regional final on Sunday. Kansas (31-6), which picked up steam after a 7-3 start, will play Ohio State on Saturday in its first Final Four appearance since winning the 2008 national championship. No matter that oddsmakers have made them the third choice. Taylor scored 22 points despite going 0-for-5 from 3-point range and was all over the score sheet in the last 4 minutes with a 3-point play, a steal, two rebounds and an assist on a 3-pointer. Playing with four fouls, Jeff Withey had two blocked shots in the final 2 minutes to keep the Tar Heels down. Kansas finished the game on a 12-0 run, holding North Carolina (326) without a basket in the final 5:46. The clock was still ticking when Self and North Carolinas Roy Williams met for the obligatory handshake. After prevailing in just the 10th meeting against North Carolina, Kansas advances to play another power it has seldom seen. This will be the ninth matchup between Ohio State and Kansas, although its the second time this season after the Jayhawks 78-67 win at home on Dec. 10. Kansas was No. 13 and Ohio State was No. 2 but missing Jared Sullinger, due to injury, in that game. All five Kansas starters scored in double figures. Player of the year candidate Thomas Robinson had 18 points and nine rebounds, Elijah Johnson had 10 points with a key 3-pointer in the finishing run. Reserve James Michael McAdoo had 15 points in 19 minutes with a pair of steals that led to 2-hand dunks for North Carolina. Tyler Zeller had 12 points, six rebounds and four blocks in his final game and John Henson, who averages a double-double, had 10 points but just four rebounds while hampered by a sprained right ankle he had taped during the first half. Harrison Barnes had 13 points but just five in the second half, and also had three turnovers. Williams faced Kansas for just the second time since leaving the school he coached for 15 seasons. Hes been at North Carolina for nine years and yet the scars linger with one fan holding a sign that read, Roy Down, 2 to Go. North Carolina missed star point guard Kendall Marshall, out for the second straight game with a broken wrist. Marshall ruled himself out before the game because he couldnt catch a pass and said later that if the Tar Heels had made it to the Final Four he would have been ready. Stilman White had seven assists Sunday for a 2-game total of 13 with no turnovers in place of Marshall, who counseled the freshman during timeouts from the bench. But White couldnt come through late when Kansas switched to a zone that sagged on the inside and dared him to shoot. The schools traded baskets in an entertaining, high-octane first half that had it deadlocked at 47. North Carolina shot 64 percent and Kansas was at 56 percent and there were only nine turnovers total. Baskets were hard to come by the rest of the way. Kansas shot 35.5 percent but North Carolina was an abysmal 23 percent in the second half.

Cameron completes journey to Earths deepest point

HONOLULU (AP) Titanic director James Cameron dove to the Earths deepest point in a specially designed submarine, the National Geographic Society said, making him the first man to travel alone to the near 7-mile depth of the Marianas Trench. The Hollywood icon, also the director of Avatar and other films, touched down in the western Pacific Oceans low point shortly before 8 a.m. Guam time Monday (Sunday evening in the U.S. East Coast), the Geographic said. He reached a depth of 35,756 feet and stayed on the bottom for about three hours before he began his return to the surface, according to information provided by the expedition team. He had planned to spend up to six hours on the sea floor. Cameron collected samples for research in marine biology, microbiology, astrobiology, marine geology and geophysics, the Geographic said. He also spent time filming the Marianas Trench, about 200 miles southwest of the Pacific island of Guam. The trip to the deepest point took two hours and 36 minutes. But Camerons return aboard his 12-ton, lime-green sub called Deepsea Challenger was a faster-than-expected 70-minute ascent, according to National Geographic. A helicopter spotted the submersible bobbing in the water and it was brought aboard the ship by a crane. There were no immediate word on Camerons physical condition after the dive, but the expedition said he planned a video interview later in the day. A medical team was present when Cameron, 57, emerged from the sub, according to the expedition. Expedition physician Joe MacInnis told National Geographic News before the journey that recent test dives, including one that went more than five miles deep, had gone well and that he expected Cameron would be fine. Jim is going to be a little bit stiff and sore from the cramped position, but hes in really good shape for his age, so I dont expect any problems at all, said MacInnis, a longtime Cameron friend, according to National Geographic. Cameron also captured still photographs and video, but there was no immediate word on when the images will be released. The Geographic said the expedition is being chronicled for a 3-D feature film for theatrical release and subsequent TV broadcast. There is scientific value in getting stereo images because ... you can determine the scale and distance of objects from stereo pairs that you cant from 2-D images, Cameron told the Geographic before the dive. This journey is the culmination of more than seven years of planning, said Cameron. Most importantly, though, is the significance of pushing the boundaries of where humans can go, what they can see and how they can interpret it. The scale of the trench is hard to grasp its 120 times larger than the Grand Canyon and more than a mile deeper than Mount Everest is tall. Its really the first time that human eyes have had an opportunity to gaze upon what
is a very alien landscape, said Terry Garcia, the National Geographic Societys executive VP for mission programs, via phone from Scotland. Among the 2.5-story-tall subs tools were a sediment sampler, a robotic claw, a slurp gun for sucking up small seacreatures for study at the surface, and temperature, salinity, and pressure gauges. Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh, a U.S. Navy captain, are the only others to reach the spot. They spent about 20 minutes there during their 1960 dive but couldnt see much after their sub kicked up sand from the sea floor. One of the risks of a dive so deep was extreme water pressure. At 6.8 miles below the surface, the pressure is the equivalent of three SUVs sitting on your toe. Cameron told The Associated Press in an interview after a 5.1 mile-deep practice run near Papua New Guinea earlier this month that the pressure is in the back of your mind. The submarine would implode in an instant if it leaked, he said.

Pope wins over Mexico; next stop Cuba

BY MICHAEL WEISSENSTEIN, NICOLE WINFIELD Associated Press LEON, Mexico He donned a sombrero and was serenaded by mariachi bands, embraced by Mexicans who called him their brother. Pope Benedict XVI has a bit of a tougher sell as he heads to a Cuba that until recently was officially atheist. Benedict leaves behind Spanish-speaking Latin Americas most Roman Catholic country today and arrives in its least, hoping to inspire the same outpouring of faith on the communist-run island that he did in Mexicos conservative Catholic heartland. Benedicts first stop is Santiago de Cuba, the islands second city that is home to the Virgin of Charity of Cobre, a tiny wooden statue that is revered by Cubans, Catholic and not. The pope will celebrate an open-air Mass today evening in Santiagos main plaza then
2051797
pray at the sanctuary housing the statue Tuesday before heading to Havana, where he will meet with Cuban President Raul Castro and presumably his brother Fidel. Benedicts three-day stay in Cuba will of course spark comparisons to Pope John Paul IIs historic 1998 tour, when Fidel Castro shed his army fatigues for a suit and tie to greet the pope at Havanas airport and where John Paul uttered the now famous words: May Cuba, with all its magnificent potential, open itself up to the world, and may the world open itself up to Cuba. Those comparisons were also evident in Mexico, which had claimed John Paul as its own during his five visits over a nearly 27-year pontificate. But with his first visit to Mexico, Benedict appeared to lay to rest the impression that he is a distant, cold pontiff who can never compare to the charisma and personal connection forged by his predecessor. Some young people rejected the pope, saying he has
an angry face. But now they see him like a grandfather, said Cristian Roberto Cerda Reynoso, 17, a seminarian from Leon who attended Benedicts Sunday Mass. I see the youth filled with excitement and enthu9siasm. Benedict charmed the crowd at Mass by donning a sombrero for his popemobile tour through the estimated 350,000 people. He put on another one later Sunday night when he was serenaded by a mariachi band as he returned to the school where he has been staying. We saw a lot of happiness in his face. We are used to seeing him with a harder appearance, but this time he looked happier, smiling, said Esther Villegas, a 36-yearold cosmetics vendor. A lot of people didnt care for him enough before, but now he has won us over. The feeling was mutual. Ive made a lot of trips, but Ive never been welcomed with such enthusiasm, Benedict told a wildly cheering crowd who greeted him late Sunday.

Tomorrows Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
TUESDAY, MARCH 27, 2012 In the coming months, take advantage of every opportunity you get to join some reputable organizations that are well connected either commercially or socially At the very least, youll establish some valuable contacts. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Although your fertile imagination will supply you with many brilliant ideas, unless you implement at least some of them, theyll be of little value. Dont be all talk and no action. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -A better-than-usual day in terms of your finances is not a signal to loosen up the purse strings, especially if you do so to gratify an extravagant whim. Better to pay off any long-standing bills. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -As long as you dont allow negative inclinations to weaken your resolve, you should be able to successfully promote a promising idea. Remain positive throughout the day. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Although conditions for personal acquisition look good, you need to be smart about how you handle your newfound wealth. If you go on a spending spree, all that you gained will slip away rapidly. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Social involvements with friends should prove to be rather pleasant, as long as you dont get carried away and spend more than you can afford. Leave the credit cards at home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -There is nothing wrong with fulfilling your ambitious aspirations, but only if you dont do so at the expense of others. If it is, you may lose more than you gain. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- In order to get your points across, you should try not to be coy or circuitous when explaining them. The best way to state your case is in an enthusiastic, direct manner. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- The ability to improve upon some basic ideas of others is one of your better assets. If and when your schemes work out well, make sure you get some of the credit. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If a partnership is to work out well, both you and your cohort must be in total agreement, down to the last detail. When you are, it will be a slam dunk. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You have what it takes to accomplish a lot, but remember, you still have your limitations. Establish reasonable objectives that you can complete. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- In order to maintain a smooth relationship with a valued friend, do not intentionally or even accidentally pry into personal matters he or she wishes to keep secret. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- When it comes to your work or something youre tying to accomplish, much productivity can be achieved through consistency and tenacity. Do not involve yourself in what you cant finish. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28, 2012 Your leadership and executive abilities are likely to be far more pronounced in the year ahead than they ever were in the past. As a result, it is extremely possible that you will be appointed manager of something enormously significant. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -In order to appease your restlessness, youre going to require a variety of activities and the ability to keep your schedule open. Be as flexible as possible. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Although you may need a bevy of activities to satisfy your restless spirit, you should take some time to work on your budget. Youll feel good about yourself if you can trim some of the fat. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Your restless and dynamic sides will be very much in evidence, causing a stir wherever you go. Think of it as spreading a little excitement around. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your natural sense of humor and quick tongue are likely to be two of your most effective tools. Used constructively, you can reverse any relationship that is heading for disaster. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Attend to your duties without making it a noplay kind of day. Youre going to need some kind of lighthearted diversion to help refurbish your attitude and outlook on life. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -By being flexible and prepared to change tactics to meet the needs of the moment, you can turn what would have been an unpleasant episode into one filled with fun and laughter. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Listen up when wiser heads are speaking. Even if a conversation wasnt meant for your ears, something is likely to be said in your presence that will be well worth remembering. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Before getting yourself involved in some kind of new endeavor, it would be best to go out of your way to examine all the available information and data. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Your spirit of cooperation will enhance all of the assets you possess as well as your appeal to others. A new partnership arrangement could be a consequence. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you desire to be as productive with your time as you can, keep your head and hands as busy as possible. Projects that require both mental and physical dexterity are best. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Instead of participating in the same old things with your friends, experiment with something new. If your pals dont want to take a chance, go off by yourself and join those who do. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Your residence could be the magnet that attracts others for a group gathering, so be prepared. Dont be surprised if you have a lot of unexpected, uninvited drop-ins.
