Tentative deal
struck with teachers
BY NANCY SPENCER
nspencer@delpho-
sherald.com
DELPHOS —
Delphos City Schools’ Board
The
of Education and the Delphos
Education Association (DEA)
has reached a tentative agree-
ment and the DEA members
have ratified the agreement.
The board is expected to
consider the agreement at its
regular board meeting at 8
p.m. Thursday.
“The negotiations ses-
sions were marked by coop-
eration and centered on dis-
cussions about students as
we jointly worked through
the funding situation facing
the Delphos City Schools,”
Superintendent Jeff Price
said in a press release. “I am
especially appreciative of the
cooperation and effort made
by members of both teams
to reach a tentative agree-
ment in the present economic
climate.”
The major points of the
contract include:
Health Care:
The district will offer a
Medium Deductible Plan
(MDHD) or a High Deductible
Plan (HDHP). The Board/
Employee split for either plan
will be 85/15 percent with
the district paying 85 per-
cent. The HDHP will qualify
employees for a $2,000 HSA
on a family/$1,000 HSA on a
single plan.
Salary:
Zero-percent increase in
the base pay. Step-pay freeze
in year one, 1/2-increment for
step increase in year two, and
full step in year three of the
agreement.
Dental Insurance:
Board share 85 percent and
employee share 15 percent for
single and family plans.
Supplemental Pay:
Reduction of 10 percent
across the board ($16,000
savings diverted to offset stu-
dent Pay-to-Participate (PtP)
costs. Lowers the cost for
student participation by $50/
student.)
Elimination of $200 sti-
pend to offset cost of licenses
and continuing education
credits. Reduction in number
of professional days by two
days and addition of personal
leave by one day.
Teacher Training and
Race to the Top:
The superintendent may
add up to four days to the
calendar in each year of the
contract for teachers to attend

dance will be available to be
paid out of Race to the Top

Other items on the agenda
for Thursday include approv-
al of the salary schedule for
classified staff for the 2011-
12 school year and a change
to the 2011-12 calendar con-
cerning the date of gradua-
tion.
Price intends to recom-
mend the board accept the
agreement.
“The teachers already rati-
fied this and I will recom-
mend the board accept it. This
will allow us to at least main-
tain the present programming
over the next three years,”
he said. “The teachers under-
stand the gravity of the situ-
ation; they knew there were
going to be reductions in pay
and they stepped up to work
toward an agreement. We’re
really below what we con-
sider to be the standard for
education in the areas of com-
puter science and elementary
education with the reduction
of three teachers, not having a
science teacher and certainly
the elimination of some of our
vocational programming.”
If accepted Thursday, the
agreement will not cause the
district to ask for less
money from taxpayers in the
fall.
“We are still in need of
additional revenue with a
levy on the ballot in August.
We’re going for a half-per-
cent income tax and we are
in need of that revenue to
look at re-establishing elimi-
nated programming down the
road and re-establish a sound
student/teacher ratio in the
elementary grades,” Price
said.

TRIPOLI, Libya —
Moammar Gadhafi stood

— at least 40 thunderous day-
light attacks that sent plumes
of smoke billowing above
the Libyan leader’s central

In late afternoon and as
the strikes continued, Libyan

render.
“We will not kneel!” he
shouted.
Alliance officials have
warned for days they were
increasing the scope and
intensity of their air cam-
paign to oust Gadhafi after
more than 40 years in power.
NATO is backing the rebel
insurgency, which has seized
swaths of eastern Libya
and pockets in the regime’s
stronghold in the west since
it began in February, inspired
by uprisings elsewhere in the
Arab world.

all of them Libyans, have
streamed across the bor-
der from Libya to Tunisia
since Monday to flee the
NATO raids as well as fight-
ing between the rebels and
government forces, accord-
ing to the Tunisian Defense
Ministry.
It couldn’t be confirmed
whether Gadhafi’s some
10-minute speech was a live
phone call or an audio record-
ing, but it appeared to take
state television by surprise.
The sound was hastily adjust-
ed to make it louder
“We will not surrender:
we only have one choice —
to the end! Death, victory, it
does not matter, we are not
surrendering!” Gadhafi said.
Highlighting his anger, he
called the rebels “bastards.”
As he spoke, reporters in
Tripoli heard the whooshing
sound of low-flying military
craft again, followed by sev-
eral explosions. Pro-Gadhafi
loyalists also fired celebra-
tory gunfire in the air.
Gadhafi was last seen in
a brief appearance on state
television in late May. He has
mostly been in hiding since
NATO strikes in April target-
ed one of his homes. Libyan
officials said one of his sons,
Saif al-Arab, and three of his
grandchildren were killed in
that strike.

cent of U.S. households that
did not pay income taxes in
2010 would see no change in

— Individuals would pay

Obama concerned
about slowing economy
By MARTIN CRUTSINGER
and CHRISTOPHER
S. RUGABER
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With
few options at hand and
his poll numbers sagging,
President Barack Obama
expressed concern Tuesday
about the sudden slowdown
in the economy but said he
is not worried about a sec-
ond recession and the nation
should “not panic.”
The president spoke about
the new economic trouble in
detail for the first time since a
report late last week showed
job growth had slowed sharp-
ly in May. He tried to reassure
Americans worried about high
gas that the nation is on a
slow, if not steady, path to
recovery.
“I am concerned about
the fact that the recovery that
we’re on is not producing
jobs as quickly as I want it
to happen,” Obama said at
an appearance with visiting
German Chancellor Angela
Merkel. “We don’t yet know
whether this is a one-month
episode or a longer trend.”
Either way, there appears
to be little Washington can do
about it.

Bernanke, speaking in Atlanta

Consumers are caught in the
middle of a fight between
financial institutions and mer-
chants as the Senate approach-
es a showdown vote over
whether to block the Federal
Reserve from capping fees
that stores pay banks every
time a shopper swipes a debit
card.
The vote, scheduled
for today, is the climax of
a long, expensive lobbying
battle between two industries
that lawmakers hate to cross
because of their influence
back home and their cam-
paign contributions.
“Those are folks who have
a lot of presence in all our
states,” said Sen. Mark Pryor,
D-Ark., who added he was
undecided. He said, “This is
one of those where people
have friends on both sides.”
At stake is whether to slash

merchants pay banks and
credit card companies for the
38 billion times consumers
use debit cards annually. The
Fed says the fees currently

last year would be capped at
12 cents per transaction.
Last year’s financial over-

issue a rule that will take
effect on July 21. The Senate
Weiner gets no defense from fellow-Democrats
By DAVID ESPO
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — party leaders can do to force
Fellow Democrats point-
edly refused to defend Rep.
Anthony Weiner on Tuesday,
telegraphing an unmistakable
eagerness for him to resign
after he admitted sending a
lewd photo of himself to a
woman via Twitter and lying
about it.
Republicans swiftly sought
political profit from the New
York Democrat’s predicament,
which threatened to deepen
when conservative blogger
Andrew Breitbart said he had
a sexually explicit photo of the
46-year-old congressman.
His political career in
extreme jeopardy, Weiner had
no public appearances. His
spokesman did not respond
to repeated requests for com-
ment.
On Monday, after days of
denials, the New York law-
maker admitted he engaged
in “several inappropriate con-
versations conducted over
Twitter, Facebook, email and
occasionally on the phone with
women I had met online.”
Alternately apologetic and
defiant, he said he neither met
nor had physical relationships
tum but said nothing to sug-
gest the Fed was about to take
any bold new action to further
shore it up.
And with lawmakers fight-
ing over the nation’s budget
deficit and long-term debt,
there is no political appe-
tite for a second major fed-
eral stimulus bill like the one
passed by Congress in 2009.
At the same time, the
president is confronted with
a slate of figures presenting
challenges to both the eco-
nomic recovery and his own
re-election prospects. Just as
the field of Republican chal-
lengers begins to take shape,
a Washington Post-ABC
News survey found that pub-
lic disapproval of Obama’s
handling of the economy has
reached a record high, 59
percent.
The poll found that Obama
and former Massachusetts
Gov. Mitt Romney are tied
among all Americans in a
hypothetical race for presi-
dent. It gave Romney a slight
edge, less than the margin of
error, among registered vot-
ers.
Seventeen months before
the election, unemployment
is 9.1 percent. When Obama
took office, it was 7.8 per-
cent. Most economists think
the rate will be above 8 per-
cent at election time next
year. Since World War II, no
president has been re-elected
vote will be on an effort to
delay the regulations for a
year and order the Fed and
whether the proposal is fair
— and rewrite it if at least two
agencies decide it is not.
Each side was claiming to
have consumers’ interests at
heart. Merchants said today’s
fees, typically 1 percent to
2 percent of the purchase,
push their prices higher and
make it tougher to hire new
workers. Banks say the Fed
proposal discounts overhead
costs like preventing fraud
and argue that slicing the
fee would force them to find
other sources of revenue such
as raising their charges for
checking accounts.
The fight over so-called
interchange fees for debit cards
crosses party lines. While No.
2 Senate Democratic leader
Richard Durbin of Illinois
is the chief supporter of the
Fed’s proposal, the main foes
are Sens. Jon Tester, D-Mont.,
and Bob Corker, R-Tenn.
The provision requiring the
Fed to set fair debit card fees
was included in last year’s
financial overhaul law by a
64-33 Senate vote and was
written by Durbin. There was
no separate House vote on
the issue. President Barack
Obama signed the overall law
after Congress passed it over
solid Republican opposition.
Durbin, using Senate pro-
cedures, is forcing Tester and
Corker to gather support from
with any of them, and added,
“I am not resigning.”
In fact, there is little that
an errant lawmaker to quit,
although House Republicans
have moved decisively in the
past year to purge their ranks
of two men who wound up in
embarrassing situations.
Most Democrats main-
tained an uncomfortable
silence about Weiner’s future,
part of what several senior con-
gressional officials described
as a hope that over a few days,
Weiner would reconsider his
refusal to resign. If not, sev-
eral noted pointedly, his dis-
trict might be eliminated when
lines are adjusted before the
2012 elections to account for a
population shift that will cost
New York two House seats.
But Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid broke the silence.
“I wish there were some
way that I can defend him, but
I can’t,” the Nevada Democrat
told reporters. Asked what he
would do if Weiner called for
advice, he replied he would
tell him “call somebody else.”
Republicans sought politi-
cal gain.
“Congressman Weiner’s
actions and deception are
unacceptable and he should

with unemployment higher
than 7.2 percent.
The day brought the latest
in a stream of downbeat eco-
nomic news, a government
report that said businesses
advertised fewer job open-
ings in April than in March.
There were 4.6 unemployed
people, on average, for each
available job in April. In a
healthy economy, the ratio is
more like 2-to-1.
Even if all the open posi-
tions were filled, 10.7 million
people would still be unem-
ployed. That compares with
7.7 million who were unem-
ployed when the recession
began in December 2007.
The recession ended in June
2009.
Obama’s early Republican
presidential challengers have
seized on the economy to
try to take advantage. One
of them, former Minnesota
Gov. Tim Pawlenty, accused
Obama on Tuesday of being
satisfied with a second-rate
economy “produced by his
third-rate policies.”
The former Minnesota
governor proposed cutting
taxes on business by more
than half and simplifying the
tax code to just three tiers,
with a top marginal rate for
individuals of 25 percent.
The top marginal rate now is
35 percent. Pawlenty would
also eliminate taxes on capi-
tal gains.
60 of the 100 senators to win.
Though aides and lobbyists
on both sides say Tester could
be close to prevailing, they
concede it will be tough to
defeat the veteran Durbin,
who wields considerable
influence as a party leader.
Even so, Durbin faced
some challenges. Six senators
— including five Democrats
— who voted for his amend-
ment last year are no longer
in the Senate. And at least
two senators who support-
ed him a year ago — Kay
Hagan, D-N.C., and Mike
Crapo, R-Idaho — are back-
ing Tester’s effort to delay the
Fed rules.
As debate began Tuesday,
Durbin recalled the $700 bil-
lion bailout passed in late
2008 as the financial indus-
try teetered on the brink of
catastrophe — followed by
the widely unpopular bonus-
es that many financial firms
awarded executives. He said
the largest banks were “fight-
ing viciously” to block the
Fed rule because they have
the most to lose.
“Are we going to be shak-
en down a second time?”
he asked. “That’s what this
debate is all about.”
Tester, a first-term senator
facing re-election next year
in a GOP-leaning state, said
he was not championing big
banks.
“No one needs to shed a
tear for them,” he said on the
Senate floor.
resign,” GOP chairman Reince
Priebus said in a statement.
“We do not need an inves-
tigation to know he lied and
acted inappropriately, we
need a resignation,” he said,
referring to a request from
House Democratic Leader
Nancy Pelosi for the House
ethics committee to investi-
gate the case.
Leaders of the House Ethics
Committee on Tuesday issued
their first statement about
Weiner, but did not announce
an investigation is under way.
“If and when an investi-
gation is appropriate in any
matter, the committee will
carry out its responsibilities
pursuant to our rules and with
the utmost integrity and fair-
ness. Pursuant to our rules of
confidentiality, we will not
have any further comment at
this time,” said Chairman Jo
Bonner, R-Ala., and ranking
Democrat Linda Sanchez of
California..
Speaking of Pelosi and Rep.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz of
Florida, the Democratic party
chairwoman, Priebus said
they either “believe members
of Congress are held to a dif-
ferent set of standards or they
believe these actions demand
his resignation.”

Wildcats blast Bearcats in ACME
SPENCERVILLE — The
Jefferson ACME baseball team
picked up another win with a
blasting 16-5 of Spencerville
in six innings Tuesday at
Spencerville.
Senior Mike Joseph pitched
a near-perfect four innings for
the Wildcats (3-1), giving up
no runs and picking up the
win.
In the first inning, Jefferson
started strong with senior Tony
George (3-for-5 in the game)
leading off with a line shot
double to left field. Sophomore
Ross Thompson (3-for-5)
scored George with a single
up the middle. Senior Curtis
Miller (2-for-3) hit a line drive
double to left field to score
Thompson and sophomore
Austin Jettinghoff (2-for-4)
hits a line drive single to right
field to score Miller.
The bats got going for
the ’Cats again in the fourth
inning with a double from
senior Justin Rode, a single by
Thompson, a double by Joseph
and a single by junior Seth
Wollenhaupt to put the game
score at 8-0.
The next inning, the bats
kept going for the Wildcats
with hits from George, Rode,
Thompson and Shayn Klinger,
putting the score at 13-0.
Spencerville rallied to put
five scores on the board in
the fifth but Jefferson was not
done yet.
Junior Zach Kimmett led
off the sixth with a single
and then senior Tony George
answered with a first-pitch
line-drive home run to left
field. Miller also hit a shot
to left center for a triple and
Jettinghoff knocked him in
with a single.
“Mike has been working
hard the past two weeks on his

Dad’s estate leads to sibling war Photo submitted

DEAR BRUCE: Our
family is involved in an ugly
feud over our father’s estate.
We want access to his house
to make repairs to sell it and
to check it periodically for
upkeep. However, the house is
150 miles away and we cannot
make regular check-ups/
visits. The power of attorney
and trustee is my brother. He
refuses to cooperate with us.
He says “I have the power”!
Is there any legal way to
“petition” him to allow us to
make the repairs? We siblings
have only honorable intentions.

Crews try to keep flames away from Ariz. towns

By SUSAN MONTOYA BRYAN
and BOB CHRISTIE
Associated Press
SPRINGERVILLE, Ariz. — Officials are
hoping their efforts overnight will keep a
mammoth forest fire from cresting a ridge and
racing into two eastern Arizona towns, giving
firefighters the upper hand on the 11th day
of what has proved to be an overwhelming
battle.
About half of the 4,000 residents who call
Eagar home were forced to leave Tuesday after-
noon as flames from the Wallow fire licked the
ridges surrounding the area. Residents in the
rest of Eagar and in neighboring Springerville
grew worried as they awaited word of whether
they will have to flee, too.
“Everybody that’s here is suffering from
anxiety from this,” Apache County Chief
Sheriff’s Deputy Brannon Eagar told residents
who gathered for a public meeting Tuesday
night.
“We never thought we’d see this roll over
the hill, but it’s here and we’re going to deal
with it the best that we can. Some people are
frustrated, and I can understand that, and I’m
sorry,” he said.
As daylight waned Tuesday, cars, trucks
and trailers loaded with belongings streamed
out of Eagar as sheriff’s deputies and police
officers directed traffic. Flames dotted a ridge
on the southeastern side of Springerville, and
columns of orange smoke rose from the hills.
Ash rained from the sky, which was filled
with thick smoke, and when the sun peeked
through, it was blood-red.
Crews worked feverishly overnight to ignite
unburned areas of grass and other fuel to starve
the fire in case it burned over the ridge and into
the grasslands and stands of trees that border
the two towns.
“Right now, it’s not moving as fast,” fire
commander Joe Reinarz said. “This is our
chance. When we get it down here in the pinon
and juniper and the grasslands, we can make a
lot of advances on getting a corral around this
thing.”
The blaze has burned 486 square miles of
ponderosa pine forest, driven by wind gusts of
more than 60 mph, since it was sparked May
29 by what authorities believe was an unat-
tended campfire. Now more than twice the size
of Chicago, the fire became the second-largest
in Arizona history Tuesday.
No serious injuries have been reported, but
the fire has destroyed 10 structures so far. It
has cast smoke as far east as Iowa and forced
some planes to divert from Albuquerque, N.M.,
some 200 miles away.
By late Tuesday, the flames were about
two miles from Springerville and Eagar, fire
officials said. The blaze did skirt around Greer
because crews were able to keep it out of the
canyons surrounding the small resort town.
Along with the back burns overnight, crews
today planned to continue scraping away
brush and trees to create a barrier around
Springerville and Eagar. More fire personnel
and police were also expected to descend on
the area, known as Round Valley.
Thousands of firefighters, including many
from several western states and as far away as
New York, are already helping.
Dozens of them worked Tuesday alongside
a stretch of U.S. 191 about two miles outside
of Springerville, burning vegetation along one
side of the highway to keep the approaching
fire from jumping across and heading into
town. Other crews removed brush from around
homes near the foothills.
Angie Colwell, her husband Mike and their
two children were loading up their belongings
as authorities ordered their Eagar neighbor-
hood to evacuate.
“We love the mountains and we’re just
afraid of what’s going to be left after the fire
comes through,” the longtime resident said.
The Apache County sheriff’s office issued
the evacuation order for areas south of state
Route 260 and east of Greer just before 4 p.m.
The highway was closed after the evacuation,
and patrol cars were stationed at checkpoints
leading south.
Eagar has about 4,000 residents, while
Springerville has another 2,000. In all, about
7,000 people have been ordered to prepare for
evacuation in recent days.
With a blaze as large as this being driven
by unpredictable and gusty winds, putting the
fire out is a gargantuan task. All fire managers
can do is try to steer it away from homes and
cabins by using natural terrain, burning out
combustible material first and trying to put out
spot fires sparked by embers blowing in front
of the main fire front.
While he gave no guarantees, Reinarz told
residents he thought the towns were defensible
as long as the wind cooperated and firefighters
were able to use the lowlands to their advan-
tage.
Reinarz and his crews have the confidence
of residents, some who spoke up during the
public meeting to offer support. Signs of
appreciation have also popped up in front of
businesses and homes.
For those who have been forced to leave,
the American Red Cross has an evacuation
center at a high school about 15 miles west
in Lakeside, Ariz. The center was opened at
Blue Ridge high after last week’s evacuation
of about 2,700 people from mountain commu-
nities, but only about 50 were there before the
new evacuations Tuesday.
The cost of fighting the Wallow fire has
approached $8 million, and forest supervisor
Christopher Knopp said it’s likely to get more
expensive as more resources and personnel
are used.
Another major wildfire was burning in
southeastern Arizona, threatening two commu-
nities. The 166-square-mile Horseshow Two
fire has devoured three summer cabins and
four outbuildings since it started May 8.
Arizona’s largest blaze came in 2002 when
flames blackened more than 732 square miles
and destroyed 491 homes west of the Wallow
fire. A fire in 2005 burned about 387 square
miles in the Phoenix suburb of Cave Creek and
consumed 11 homes.

Novel forensics used in Search for Indiana student reminiscent of 2000 case
Casey Anthony murder trial By DEANNA MARTIN

TV reporters at the scene. Bloomington police declined comment,
saying they planned to issue a statement today morning. But the
By MIKE SCHNEIDER
Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — A novel forensics technique introduced
in Casey Anthony’s murder trial this week has the promise to
do what the noses of highly-trained cadaver dogs are able to
do — sniff out decomposition and locate hidden bodies.
That technique had never before been used in a criminal
case until the trial of the young Florida mother, who is charged
with killing her 2-year-old daughter Caylee. It may end up
being the most controversial piece of forensics evidence pre-
sented in the trial.
Anthony’s defense attorneys tried to stop Oak Ridge
National Laboratory senior researcher Arpad Vass from tes-
tifying for prosecutors, claiming his method was too experi-
mental. The Orlando prosecutor’s office has a history of using
novel techniques in the courtroom — it was among the first to
use DNA evidence in a criminal case.
“His opinions and theories range from the interesting to the
bizarre,” Anthony’s attorneys said in court documents. But
Circuit Judge Belvin Perry ruled that any decision about the
reliability of Vass’ methods should be left to jurors.
The 25-year-old Anthony is accused of killing Caylee in
June 2008 and disposing of her body. She faces a possible
death sentence if convicted.
Her defense attorney, Jose Baez, says the toddler drowned
in the family’s swimming pool and that after Casey panicked,
her father helped cover up the death, which he denies. The
girl’s decomposed body was found by a meter reader in some
woods near the parents’ home in December 2008.
The car’s smell has played a role in the case since the begin-
ning.
Shortly after their daughter and granddaughter disappeared,
Casey’s parents, George and Cindy Anthony, got a notice from
a tow lot that her car had been picked up and needed to be
claimed or it would be salvaged. They picked up the car and it
reeked of a foul odor. George Anthony, a former police officer,
and the tow lot operator both said the car smelled like a dead
body had been inside.
When the Anthonys tracked down Casey at a friend’s house
and she couldn’t produce Caylee, Cindy Anthony called 911
and told the operator the car smelled like death. Baez says the
odor came from a bag of garbage that had been left in the trunk
in the hot Florida summer.
Investigators brought in Vass, who had gotten some atten-
tion in 2008 for his work using his odor detector to search for
buried bodies at a California ranch where convicted murderer
Charles Manson and his followers lived in the late 1960s. None
were found.
Minority youth are media gluttons
By DAVID AGUILAR
Associated Press
CHICAGO — Minority youth spend more than half their
day consuming media content, a rate that’s 4.5 hours greater
than their white counterparts, according to a Northwestern
University report released Wednesday.
Television remains king among all youth, but among
minorities who spend 13 hours per day consuming media of
various types, electronic gadgets such as cell phones and iPods
increasingly are the way such content gets delivered, the report
found.
“Children, Media and Race: Media Use Among White,
Black, Hispanic and Asian American Children” was touted by
researchers as the first national study to focus exclusively on
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Eleven years after an Indiana
University student disappeared while on a bike ride, the scene
in this college town is eerily similar, with parents and volunteers
frantically searching for another missing woman with no sign of
what happened to her.
Police say they have few leads and no suspects but believe
foul play is to blame for the disappearance of 20-year-old Lauren
Spierer, a petite sophomore from Greenburgh, N.Y., last seen leav-
ing a friend’s apartment early Friday after a night out.
“When somebody at 4:30 in the morning — no shoes and has
earlier been drinking — goes out and just disappears off a street
corner, we feel like there certainly could be foul play involved,”
Bloomington police Lt. Bill Parker said during a news conference
Tuesday. “If she had just decided to go to a buddy’s house, we
would have heard that by now.”
For some on the campus of 40,000 students about 50 miles
south of Indianapolis, the agony is all too familiar.
Those searching for Spierer include Eric Behrman, whose
daughter, Jill, was 19 when she disappeared in May 2000 while on
a bike ride near Bloomington. Hunters found her skeletal remains
three years later in a remote field about 15 miles from the city.
John R. Myers II was charged later that year and is now serving a
65-year sentence in her death.
“After a period of time — after you’ve searched, you’ve
exhausted the contacts — that’s when a real feeling of fear creeps
in,” Behrman said. “You realize no one knows where your child
is.”
Police looking for clues about Spierer used a battering ram
to break into the security room and mail room at her apartment
building Tuesday evening, according to WTHR-TV and WISH-

bin Laden greeted at US port By DAVID A. LIEB and CHRIS BLANK
Associated Press
By JAYMES SONG
Associated Press
PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii — More than 100 supporters
greeted the USS Carl Vinson as it returned from a deployment that
became historic last month when the aircraft carrier picked up a
team of Navy SEALs carrying the body of Osama bin Laden and
buried the terror leader at sea.
The ship arrived in Hawaii on Tuesday, making its first stop on
U.S. soil since its six-month deployment to waters in and around
the Middle East and the Western Pacific. The Vinson is making a
three-day stop in Pearl Harbor before heading home to San Diego
— where it is expected to be met with a much larger greeting.
There had not been much fanfare preceding the ship’s arrival.
The media was alerted only a day before the Vinson pulled into
port. And Navy officials advised reporters that senior officers
wouldn’t talk much about bin Laden or disclose new details of
the burial.
The Vinson was in the North Arabian Sea in early May when it
received a Navy SEAL team carrying the body of the mastermind
of the Sept. 11 terror attacks.
Pentagon officials speaking about the burial have said that bin
Laden’s body was placed in a weighted bag on the carrier and that
an officer made religious remarks before the remains were put on
a board and tipped into the sea.
Most sailors were reluctant to talk about the ship’s connection
to the world’s most wanted terrorist. But others expressed appre-

apartment complex issued a statement indicating police were after
computer hard drives and no one was available to let officers into
the locked area.
Spierer’s parents, Robert and Charlene, and volunteers plan to
resume what have become daily searches today in hopes of finding
their daughter.
“We are continuing in earnest every day to search for her,” a vis-
ibly exhausted Robert Spierer told reporters as his wife, Charlene,
wiped tears away. “We’re not going to give up.”
Bloomington resident Dawn Adams, whose son, Wade Steffey,
went missing at Purdue University in 2007, was among those help-
ing look for Lauren Spierer. She said health problems prevented
her from searching for her son, whose body was found two months
later in a high-voltage utility room on campus, where he’d been
fatally shocked.
“It’s important to be here to search for Lauren and support her
parents,” said Adams, a Bloomington resident. “I hope we find her.
It’s really important to look.”
Parker said Spierer went to a sports bar near her apartment with
friends Thursday night, then went to a friend’s apartment before
leaving around 4:30 a.m. Friday. Her friend watched Spierer walk
to a corner near his apartment, but no one has seen her since.
Investigators have Spierer’s purse and some keys, which were
found along the route to her friend’s apartment. But Parker said
they aren’t sure whether Spierer left them on her way to or from her
friend’s home. She left her cellphone and shoes in the bar.
Authorities directing volunteers have told them to look for
clues — a stray piece of clothing left on the ground or anything
that raises suspicion. Fliers with Spierer’s photograph and a physi-
cal description of her are posted around Bloomington and on the
Indiana University campus.
ST. LOUIS — When the Missouri River leaped out of its banks
in 1993, the floodwaters were merciless, damaging nearly every
levee along the swollen channel in its namesake state and inundat-
ing thousands of homes, farms and businesses.
But the disaster also prompted a massive effort to rebuild flood-
walls and relocate houses to higher ground.
Now that the river is rising again, many communities in its path
hope those improvements will pay off, either by holding back the
waters or at least minimizing the damage to property and liveli-
hoods. And if the water stays high for weeks, it will present one
of the greatest tests of any levee — whether it can sustain pressure
from a prolonged flood without crumbling, collapsing or allowing
significant leaks.
The flood of 2011 is projected to last for weeks — if not months
— as the Army Corps of Engineers releases records amounts of
water from its upstream dams due to heavy rains in the West and
Upper Midwest and higher-than-usual amounts of melting snow.
Some downstream levees already are in jeopardy. Breaches
along an earthen levee just south of the Iowa-Missouri border have
sent officials scrambling to erect a secondary floodwall to protect
the homes of roughly 1,100 people in Hamburg, Iowa.
Officials at the Army Corps’ Kansas City district — which
inspects more than 1,000 miles of levees along the Missouri and
its tributaries in Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska — hope the levee
troubles near Hamburg are the exception, not a predictor of prob-
lems to come downstream.
When floodwaters butted up against levees in 1993, Kneuvean
said, “almost all of them were damaged, and because of that, almost
all of them were rebuilt. There was a lot of effort and a lot of money
put into them.”

children’s media use by race and ethnicity.
Minority youth media consumption rates outpace their
white counterparts by two hours when it comes to TV and
video viewership, approximately an hour for music, up to 1.5
hours for computer use, and 30 to 40 minutes for playing video
games.
Young people in all groups read for pleasure 30 to 40
minutes a day, the only medium that no difference was found
between minority and white youth.
Other findings include:
— Minority youth spend 3 hours and 7 minutes per day
using mobile devices to watch TV and videos, play games and
listen to music. That’s about 1.5 hours more each day than
white youth.
— Traditional TV viewing remains most popular. Black
and Hispanic youth consume more than three hours daily;
whites and Asians more than two hours.
— Access to TiVo, DVDs, and mobile and online viewing
increase television consumption to 5 hours and 54 minutes for
black youth, 5 hours and 21 minutes for Hispanics, 4 hours
and 41 minutes for Asians, and 3 hours and 36 minutes for
whites.
— Black and Hispanic youth are more likely to have TV
sets in their bedrooms (84 percent of blacks, 77 percent of
Hispanics compared to 64 percent of whites and Asians),
and to have cable and premium channels available in their
bedrooms (42 percent of blacks and 28 percent of Hispanics
compared to 17 percent of whites and 14% of Asians).
— 78 percent of black youth, 67 percent of Hispanic, 58
percent of white and 55 percent of Asian 8- to 18-year-olds say
the TV is “usually” on during home meals.
— Black children under 6 are twice as likely to have a TV
in their bedroom as whites, and more than twice as likely to go
to sleep with the TV on.
Associated Press
The nation’s economic stress fell to a two-year low in April,
thanks to the strongest private-sector hiring in five years and a
dip in bankruptcy filings, according to The Associated Press’
monthly analysis.
The improved picture for jobs and bankruptcy filings offset
a slight rise in foreclosures.
The easing of stress was felt most in Midwestern and mid-
Atlantic states. But conditions brightened throughout the coun-
try: More than 90 percent of the nation’s 3,141 counties were
better off in April than in March.
Counties with heavy concentrations of workers in farming,
retail and tourism benefited in particular. By contrast, coun-
ties with many workers in education and mining suffered the
sharpest increases in stress.
The AP’s Stress index calculates a score from 1 to 100
based on unemployment, foreclosure and bankruptcy rates. A
higher score signifies more economic stress. Under a rough
rule of thumb, a county is considered stressed when its score
exceeds 11. By that standard, about a quarter of the counties
were stressed in April, down from about a third in March.
The average county’s Stress score was 9.8, the lowest since
April 2009’s score of 9.7. It was 10.5 in March and 11 in
February. A year earlier, it was 10.5.
Nevada had the highest level of stress in April with a
score of 19.36. Next were California (15.57), Florida (14.17),
Arizona (13.78) and Georgia (13.38).
As it’s been since the recession began in 2007, North
Dakota was the least-stressed state, with a score of 3.88. It
was followed by Nebraska (5.27), South Dakota (5.58), New
Hampshire (6.38) and Vermont (6.39).
The nation’s stress may have headed back up in May. A range
of economic data showed the economy slowing last month, in part
because of high gas prices. Consumers who have had to pay more
for gas have had less money to spend on other goods and services
— from furniture and appliances to restaurants and vacations.

Today’s joke:
One day the first grade teacher was reading the story
of Chicken Little to her class. She came to the part of the
story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She
read, “.... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer
and said, “The sky is falling, the sky is falling!”
The teacher paused then asked the class, “And what
do you think that farmer said?”
One little girl raised her hand and said, “I think he
said: ‘Holy Mackerel! A talking chicken!’”
The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10
minutes.
