City working on water leak; Bunge gets parcel rezoning

BY NANCY SPENCER nspencer@delphosherald.com DELPHOS City crews are working to find a 30,000-gallon-per-minute water leak in the 600 block of East Fifth Street. Delphos City Council learned Monday a leak was detected during a survey conducted by Aqualine. City workers dug down to the water main Monday and could not find a leak. Safety Service Director Greg Berquist told council heavier equipment would be brought in today to dig deeper. We know there is a leak there; its just finding it, he said. We hope its not under Flat Fork Creek but on either side of it. Bunge North America East LLC will have approximately 2,600 additional square feet to install railroad spurs to allow tanker car access to the facility for liquid transfer. Council approved rezoning three city lots on South Jefferson Street north of the facility from R-1 to I-2 to allow for the upgrade. Council also approved vacating an alleyway between two of the lots. Bunge officials did not return phone calls by press time. Stolly Insurance will provide general, property and

Libya says NATO airstrike kills 15 west of capital

By ADAM SCHRECK The Associated Press SURMAN, Libya Libyas government said a NATO airstrike west of Tripoli early today destroyed a large family compound belonging to a close associate of Moammar Gadhafi, killing at least 15 people, including three children. It was the second claim of civilian deaths at a home in as many days. The alliance said the strike Monday hit a command and control center. Gadhafis regime has repeatedly accused NATO of targeting civilians in an attempt to rally support against international intervention into Libyas civil war. The alliance insists it tries to avoid killing civilians. Libyan government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim said NATO bombs struck the compound belonging to Khoweildi al-Hamidi outside the city of Surman, some 40 miles (60 kilometers) west of Tripoli, around 4 a.m. local time Monday. NATO initially said it had not hit any targets in the Surman area overnight. But the alliance later released a statement saying it conducted a precision strike near the town early Monday on a legitimate military target a command and control node which was directly involved in coordinating systematic attacks on Libyan citizens. The commander of NATOs Libya operation, Lt. Gen. Charles Bouchard, said the strike will greatly degrade the Gadhafi regimes forces ability to carry out their barbaric assaults on the Libyan people. Wherever Gadhafi tries to hide his command and control centers, we will find them, he said. NATO officials have repeatedly said the alliance does not target individuals. It could not confirm reports of

casualties in Mondays strike but said it regrets any loss of civilian life. Al-Hamidi is a longtime regime insider who took part in the 1969 coup that brought Gadhafi to power. He reportedly commanded a battalion that crushed rebels in the nearby western city of Zawiya in March, and his daughter is married to one of Gadhafis sons, Saadi. Ibrahim said al-Hamidi escaped the airstrikes unharmed but that three children, two of them al-Hamidis grandchildren, were among the 15 people killed. Officials said he was inside a stillintact building at the time of the strike. They (NATO) are targeting civilians. ... The logic is intimidation, Ibrahim said. They want Libyans to give up the fight ... they want to break our spirit. He warned that killing civilians risked creating a hateful generation of young Libyans who will make the world a very dangerous place. Foreign journalists based in the Libyan capital were taken by government officials to the walled compound, where at least two buildings had been blasted to rubble. A pair of massive craters could be seen in the dusty ground, and rescue workers with sniffer dogs were scouring the rubble in search of people. The smell of smoke was still in the air. Bombs also ripped holes through the top of a large tent sheltering cars, smashing the floor and mangling vehicles inside. The windows were shattered in a circular sitting room containing old framed photos said to be of al-Hamidi, and a deer kept in an enclosure with other animals had a broken antler and was bleeding from the mouth.

For The Record Ohio bill would divert the The Delphos 22 killed in suicide car Herald bombings south of Baghdad nonviolent from prison
By sinAn sALAHeDDin the Associated Press BAGHDAD Suicide bombers detonated two explosives-laden vehicles early today near a government compound by a southern Iraqi governors home, killing at least 22 people and wounding dozens, Iraqi officials said. The attacks come as Iraqs top political factions started to discuss in earnest whether to ask some of the U.S. troops to stay beyond the Dec. 31 withdrawal deadline because of the security situation. While violence is well below what it was during the years that followed the 2003 U.S.-led invasion, militants are still able to launch deadly attacks. The ongoing violence has led to concerns about what happens when the 47,000 remaining U.S. troops are withdrawn. Still, such violence is rare in the mostly Shiite province of Diwaniyah, which is 80 miles (130 kilometers) outside of Baghdad and well south of most of the insurgent strongholds. Diwaniyah Gov. Salim Hussein Alwan said he was leaving his house when a suicide bomber rammed into a police checkpoint outside his house. I was in the garage preparing to leave when the attacker hit the police barrier outside and crashed with their vehicle, Alwan told The Associated Press in a phone interview. Minutes later, another suicide bomber attacked a compound housing the governors office and other governmental buildings, according to a police officer and two medical officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to journalists. At least 37 people were wounded in the attacks which occurred at about 7:30 a.m. when security forces were changing shifts, the officials said. Like most government buildings in Iraq, the governors house and office are surrounded by walls, and visitors must pass through checkpoints manned by security forces to get inside. The attackers did not appear to make it through the security perimeter but blew themselves up at the checkpoints. I had no idea what happened, one security personnel told Iraqiya TV from his bed at the hospital. I heard only an explosion, flew to the air and went back to ground, he added as his neck and abdomen were bandaged. No one has claimed responsibility of the attack, but suicide bombings are the hallmark of al-Qaida in Iraq. The last major attacks in Diwaniyah had been in 2009 when a bomb attached to a bus killed six people and 2007 when roadside bomb targeted a police patrol, killing at seven officers. Hamid al-Mutlaq, a Sunni lawmaker and member of the parliaments security and defense committees, blamed todays attacks on political disputes that have delayed the selection of top security posts. Iraqs prime minister has failed to fill the top posts at the interior and defense ministries more than five months after he seated his government for a second term. The countrys warring political factions have been unable to agree on who should run the powerful and sensitive positions. We have said before that there is a failure in the security forces and they are infiltrated, al-Mutlaq said. In Baghdad, a bomb attached to a minibus killed the driver while the bus was traveling today in the capitals western Harithiya neighborhood, army spokesman Maj. Gen. Qassim al-Mousawi said. It was not immediately known what was the motive was behind the attack. And two soldiers were killed and five other people were wounded when a roadside bomb hit an Iraqi army patrol in Baghdads eastern Palestine Street, a police officer said. COLUMBUS (AP) Lawmakers in the Ohio Senate are ready to approve a bill allowing nonviolent criminals to serve time in communitybased centers instead of more expensive state prisons.

CINCINNATI (AP) A new report says the county that includes Cincinnati has rates of sexually transmitted diseases well above national averages. Hamilton Countys syphilis rate is nearly nine times the national rate. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports other STDs also are more prevalent than national rates. The reports author is emergency physician and Xavier University associate professor Eddie Hooker. He

Hundreds of cases of bottled water, cooking oil, pasta and other supplies were stockpiled in one of the destroyed buildings. Another building outside the compound, next to a communications tower, was also flattened, and walls were blown out of an adjacent

house. A mosque across the street and a school next door were not damaged. Journalists were later taken to a hospital in the nearby city of Sabratha, where medical workers showed them the bodies of about eight to 10 people, including at least two children, said to have been killed in the strike. Some of the bodies appeared charred, while others were in pieces. Portraits of Gadhafi hung on the hospital walls as armed men in military fatigues roamed the hallways. NATO, which has a man-

New swing ride set to open at Kings Island

COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio State University wants to raise tuition by 3.3 percent, joining other Ohio institutions of higher learning that are seeking price hikes for the fall. The Columbus Dispatch reports tuition for in-state undergraduates on Ohio States main Columbus campus would increase $315 to $9,309 under a plan the schools trustees will be asked to approve on Friday. University President E. Gordon said earlier this year that a tuition hike was likely because of cuts in state funding. Ohio State officials say its likely the school would still have lower costs than most of the states other, comparable public universities because many of them also are hiking prices. For example, Ohio University wants to boost tuition and fees by $334 to $9,871, a 3.5 percent increase.

MASON (AP) A southwest Ohio amusement park is set to open a new swing ride that will spin riders 30 stories above the park. The WindSeeker ride is set to debut today at Kings Island. The 301-foot-tall tower ride has two-person swings that allow riders feet to dangle free. The park says riders begin rotating in a circular motion as the swings ascend the tower, reaching speeds of up to 30 mph at the top and flaring out 45 degrees from the tower. The park north of Cincinnati in Mason says the $5 million ride can accommodate up to 64 riders in each ride cycle, and theyll be able to see for 18 miles on a clear day. Kings Islands sister park in northern Ohio, Cedar Point, opened its own WindSeeker last week.

Obama to move US closer to leaving Afghanistan

By JULIE PACE Associated Press in Washington. On Thursday, he will visit troops at Fort Drum, the upstate New York military base that is home to the 10th Mountain Division, one of the most frequently deployed divisions to Afghanistan and Iraq. While much of the attention is focused on how many troops will leave Afghanistan next month, the more telling aspects of Obamas decision center on what happens after July, particularly how long the president plans to keep the 30,000 surge forces he sent to the country in 2009. There is a growing belief that the president must at least map out the initial withdrawal of the surge troops when he addresses the public. But whether those forces should come out over the next eight to 12 months or slowly trickle out over a longer time is hotly debated. Military commanders want to keep as many of those forces in Afghanistan for as long as possible, arguing that too fast a withdrawal could undermine the fragile security gains in the fight against the Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan, the alQaida training ground for the Sept. 11 attacks. There are also concerns about pulling

At the time, the Fed opened a program to ship dollars overseas to pump more cash into the financial system and give European central banks enough dollars to lend to commercial banks. In return, the Fed received European currencies to hold until the dollars were repaid. The Fed could resume that effort if the European crisis worsened. It could also pursue stepped-up lending to financial firms through its emergency loan program, called the discount window. And it could resume the unorthodox loan programs it used during the financial crisis when credit froze up. Former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan said in a television interview last week that the likelihood of a Greek default is so high you almost have to say theres no way out. Greenspan suggested that the crisis potentially could push the United Sates into a second recession.

European debt crisis shadows Fed meeting

WASHINGTON President Barack Obama will move the United States a step closer to ending the war in Afghanistan when he announces plans Wednesday to bring thousands of American troops home, beginning next month. Administration officials said the president was still in the final phase of a decision-making process that has focused not only on how many troops will come home in July, but also on a broader withdrawal blueprint designed to put the U.S. on a path toward giving Afghans control of their security by 2014. Obama was given a range of options for the withdrawal last week by Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan. The military favors a gradual reduction in troops but other advisers are advocating a significant decrease in the coming months. While the president has said he favors a significant withdrawal, his advisers have not quantified that statement. Obama is expected to make Wednesdays announcement

Largest sex-discrimination case in US history dead in its tracks

By MARK SHERMAN Associated Press WASHINGTON The Supreme Court blocked the largest sex-discrimination lawsuit in U.S. history on Monday, siding with WalMart and against up to 1.6 million female workers in a decision that makes it harder to mount large-scale bias claims against the nations other huge companies, too. The justices all agreed that the lawsuit against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. could not proceed as a class action in its current form, reversing a decision by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. By a 5-4 vote along ideological lines, the court also said there were too many women in too many jobs at Wal-Mart to wrap into one lawsuit. Because respondents provide no convincing proof of a companywide discriminatory pay and promotion policy, we have concluded that they have not established the existence of any common question, Justice Antonin Scalia said in his majority opinion. Theodore Boutrous Jr., Wal-Marts lawyer, said the decision also would affect pending class-action claims against Costco and others. Companies as varied as the big Wall Street firm GoldmanSachs & Co., electronics giant Toshiba America Inc., and Cigna Healthcare Inc. also face class-action claims from women they employ. This is an extremely important victory not just for Wal-Mart, but for all companies that do business in the United States, Boutrous said. The assessment was similar on the other side of the issue. Marcia D. Greenberger, co-president of the National Womens Law Center, said, The court told employers that they can rest easy, knowing that the bigger and more powerful they are, the less likely their employees will be able to join together to secure their rights. With 2.1 million workers in more than 8,000 stores worldwide, Wal-Mart could have faced billions of dollars in damages if it had had to answer claims by the huge group of women. Now, the handful of employees who brought the case may pursue their claims on their own, with much less money at stake and less pressure on Wal-Mart to settle. Two of the named plaintiffs, Christine Kwapnoski and Betty Dukes, vowed to continue their fight, even as they

out a substantial number of U.S. forces as the heightened summer fighting season gets under way. Retiring Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said he believes the initial drawdown should be modest. But other advisers are backing a more significant withdrawal that starts in July and proceeds steadily through the following months. That camp believes the slow yet steady security gains in Afghanistan, combined with the death of Osama bin Laden and U.S. success in dismantling much of the al-Qaida network in the country, give the president an opportunity to make larger reductions this year. There is also growing political pressure on Capitol Hill for a more significant withdrawal. Twenty-seven senators, Democrats as well as Republicans, sent Obama a letter last week pressing for a shift in Afghanistan strategy and major troop cuts. Given our successes, it is the right moment to initiate a sizable and sustained reduction in forces, with the goal of steadily redeploying all regular combat troops, the senators wrote. The costs of prolonging the war far outweigh the benefits.

Crunch time looms as budget talks resume

By ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press WASHINGTON Its getting down to crunch time for Vice President Joe Biden and a bipartisan band of lawmakers trying to craft a deal to slash the federal budget and raise the debt limit. Theres a growing sense of urgency for the group to pick up the pace and start making the politically difficult trade-offs required to generate deficit savings in the trillions of dollars rather than in billions. The game plan is for the Biden-led group to reach a tentative pact by Congress July 4 recess. Negotiators have snapped up easy-to-pluck savings, but agreement is lacking on the types of controversial bigticket items that would produce major deficit cuts of the size sought by negotiators. The hope is to produce more than $2 trillion in deficit cuts over the coming decade or so, to be paired with a commensurate increase in the governments ability to borrow to avoid a first-ever default on U.S. obligations. So far, however, neither side has put any sacred cows on the chopping block. Republicans insist the final deal wont include anything related to tax increases even after a 73-27 Senate vote to kill a special tax break for the ethanol industry. Theyre reluctant to curb the Pentagon budget. Democrats, meanwhile, are reluctant to offer up deeper cuts to domestic programs or even consider modest cuts to health care programs like Medicare and Medicaid unless Republicans show flexibility on revenues, like getting rid of the ethanol tax break of 45 cents per gallon. Balance on both sides. Thats what its going to take to reach an agreement, Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., said Monday. Baucus is representing Senate Democrats in the negotiations. The two sides are closest to agreement on proposals such as cutting student loan subsidies and farm programs and facilitating new auctions of the electromagnetic spectrum by allowing broadcasters to reap some of the profit from the sale. Its commonly assumed federal workers will contribute more to their pensions and that corporations will pay more to have the government guarantee their pension plans. The government is likely to sell excess property.

expressed disappointment about the ruling. We still are determined to go forward to present our case in court. We believe we will prevail there, said Dukes, a greeter at the Walmart in Pittsburg, Calif. All I have to say is when I go back to work tomorrow, Im going to let them know we are still fighting, said Kwapnoski. an assistant manager at a Sams Club in Concord, Calif. Both women spoke on a conference call with reporters. The womens lawyers said they were considering filing thousands of discrimination claims against Wal-Mart, but they acknowledged the court had dealt a fatal blow to their initial plan. In a statement, Wal-Mart said, The court today unanimously rejected class certification and, as the majority made clear, the plaintiffs claims were worlds away from showing a companywide discriminatory pay and promotion policy. The high courts majority agreed with Wal-Marts argument that being forced to defend the treatment of female employees regardless of the jobs they hold or where they work is unfair.

Moderately confused

And both President Barack Obama and House Republicans point to more than $1 trillion in savings by claiming that the costs of military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan will quickly shrink to $50 billion a year instead of the almost $160 billion provided for 2011. The $1 trillion figure may be exaggerated, but hundreds of billions of dollars may be possible. Even so, such savings add up to just a fraction of what it would take to meet the twin goals of having the deficit cuts at least match the amount of increase in the borrowing cap required to keep the government afloat past next years elections. Congressional leaders and the administration dont want a politically painful repeat vote on the debt limit before then. A building block to any measure is capping the amount of money Congress can allocate each year for the dayto-day operations of federal agencies. Obama essentially wants a freeze at current levels, saving perhaps $1 trillion from the Pentagon and domestic agencies. Republicans want to cut domestic agencies, on average, back to 2008 levels and are more protective of the military.

LIMA JUNIOR

Key NFL owners meeting begins today

By BARRY WILNER The Associated Press CHICAGO One day of owners meetings could turn into two. Whether thats a sign of progress toward the end of the lockout and labor peace is debatable. NFL owners gather today and perhaps into Wednesday to discuss the status of negotiations with players for a new collective bargaining agreement. This is the first meeting called by the league strictly for labor matters and the 32 team owners and representatives who will be on hand were advised last week to prepare to stay an extra day. Thats how complex and perhaps contentious some of the issues are. In the last three weeks, groups led by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith have made enough progress toward a CBA that it sparked optimism training camps could open on time late next month. But no one is saying a deal is imminent; several owners are known to have strong questions about proposals being discussed with the players. Each side is eager to get something done before the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis rules on the leagues request to permanently block an injunction that originally lifted the lockout. That injunction had been on hold while the 3-man appeals panel considers the case but one of the judges warned the owners and players they both wouldnt like the decision. Fearful of a ruling in which both sides lose for example, the lockout could be allowed to continue but only until it reaches six months, which would be four days after the regular season opens Goodell, lead negotiator Jeff Pash and a handful of owners have met with Smith and a group of players over the past three weeks. Out of those talks has come word of movement and an atmosphere of cooperation, a far cry from the rhetoric and court actions of the previous months. Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay has said a deal needs to be in place by July 4 in order to have a normal training camp and preseason. The Minnesota Vikings announced they could wait until July 18 to determine if they will hold any of their training camp in Mankato, as they usually do, but that certainly is cutting things close. No talks with the players are scheduled until after the Chicago owners meeting. Instead, the owners will be briefed on recent negotiations, including such topics as prospective salary caps; a rookie wage scale; free agency requirements; health benefits; and, most significantly, how much revenue from the $9.3 billion business they are willing to share with the players. Of chief concern on the owners side could be keeping a united front if some teams, particularly the lower-revenue or small-market franchises, are not satisfied with the numbers presented in Chicago. The first preseason game, at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, is scheduled for Aug. 7. That makes these meetings, over 24 hours or more, critical in the NFLs first work stoppage since 1987.
NFL Hall of Famers speak out against poor benefits: His body battered and bruised by a Hall of Fame career in the NFL, Joe DeLamielleure limped to the podium to state his case. Weve earned the right to have a livable pension, the former guard with the Bills and Browns said after detailing his lengthy resume of surgeries. The NFL is the most lucrative sport on the planet and they cant take care of 2,000 guys? Thats wrong. DeLamielleure was one of a collection of NFL Hall-of-Famers and current players who held a press conference Monday backing a class-action lawsuit against the NFL, demanding better benefits for former players. Carl Eller, one of the plaintiffs, says the league has not done what is fair and right in supporting the

Red Bull plans to leave NASCAR at end of year

By JENNA FRYER The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. Carl Edwards had top-secret meetings with Joe Gibbs! Clint Bowyer has all but signed a contract with Red Bull! Interested car owners are blowing up Juan Pablo Montoyas phone! Its Silly Season in NASCAR and the rumors are swirling through the garage as fast as the cars are circling the track. Each day brings a whisper of a new meeting between driver and car owner or rumblings of various scenarios that will force the dominoes to fall for several top drivers. It officially heated up Monday when The Associated Press reported that Red Bull plans to leave NASCAR at the end of the season. That took the 2-car organization out of play for an A-list driver, right when talk had picked up that Bowyer was ready to make the jump from Richard Childress Racing. Word is Bowyer was seriously considering an offer to replace Kasey Kahne but just as he made up his mind, Red Bull officials cooled off. Now Red Bulls departure turns the entire free-agency process on its head. Its quite possible that Red Bull general manager Jay Frye will line up an investor to purchase the teams assets and Frye has considerable experience doing just that. It was Frye who masterminded Mark Martins retirement reversal, inked a new contract extension in April but Edwards has yet to come to a new agreement, despite a 20-point lead in the standings and wins at Las Vegas and the $1 million All-Star race. Its no secret Joe Gibbs Racing has been trying for years to add a fourth team but the right situation has never developed. Long-time sponsor Home Depot must be frustrated by Lowes-sponsored Jimmie Johnsons run of five straight championships and pairing with Edwards might be enough to appease the company. That would, of course, make Joey Logano the odd man out at JGR, which still would have to find a sponsor for the driver many believed would be NASCARs next superstar. Montoya most certainly has suitors but the list of quality open rides is shrinking. Theres allegedly been interest from Michael Waltrip Racing, a 2-car team with room to grow and a satellite branch at JTG Daugherty Racing. But Montoya has a strong bond with current team owner Chip Ganassi and it would take a very strong offer to lure him away from the guy who gave him a NASCAR job when the Colombian walked away from Formula One in 2006.

financial and medical concerns of former players. He was joined at the National Press Club by Hall-of-Famers Lem Barney, Elvin Bethea and Paul Krause, among others, each of whom detailed the struggles they have had in their post-NFL lives trying to receive benefits from the league. These are real people, real players and real pain, Eller said. Football is a game; life is not. We are suffering from the game. The former players said they wanted their concerns to be heard and considered in lockout negotiations between the players and NFL owners. And while many of the former players expressed disdain with the players union, the lawyer, Michael Hausfeld, representing Ellers suit expressed confidence that the issue of retired player benefits would be addressed in any deal. While the event was an opportunity for former players to detail their concerns, about a dozen current or recently retired players attended to show support for the cause, earning warm greetings from their counterparts. These are courageous men and I came here for them, Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo said. I came here for the current players because this is far from the glitz and glamour of the NFL. If youre talking to a 24-year-old young man, hes not thinking about these types of issues, so we have to bring these issues to the public, so everybody is aware of exactly whats going on. We need to support these men and do whats right. These men earned it. Several players referenced Bears safety Dave Duerson, who committed suicide amid mounting financial and personal issues and potential effects from concussions. I dont know how many concussions Ive had but there is a mental impact, added Krause, a former Redskins safety. I didnt want to admit it but Ive thought of (suicide). You just want to get away from everything. People have to know what players are going through its physical, financial and mental. Barney, a standout safety for the Lions, added that the retired players were speaking out for the vast majority of those who played their careers in relative anonymity.

Giambis 3-run homer lifts Rockies past Indians

The Associated Press CLEVELAND Jason Giambi couldnt wait to get back to Cleveland. No joke. With a chance to be Colorados designated hitter for six straight interleague games, Giambi wanted to make the most of more playing time and more at-bats. Giambis gigantic 3-run homer in Colorados 6-run fifth inning off Fausto Carmona sent the Rockies to an 8-7 win Monday night over Cleveland. Giambis 440-foot shot his 422nd career homer against Carmona (4-9) helped the Rockies win for the fifth time in six games and get back to .500 for the first time since May 25. Leading 4-1 in the fifth, Carmona got two quick outs and had two strikes on No. 9 hitter Chris Iannetta before walking him. Following consecutive singles by Carlos Gonzalez and Chris Nelson, Carmona walked Todd Helton to force in a run. Troy Tulowitzki hit a hard hopper toward Orlando Cabrera playing his first game at third base in 15-plus seasons that caromed off the bag, bringing in two runs to tie it 4-all. Giambi then crushed his seventh homer in just 52 at-bats, a blast that landed in the back of the Indians bullpen in center field only a few feet from where reliever Chad Durbin was warming up. After Seth Smith doubled, Durbin replaced Carmona, who has been awful over the past month. Matt Lindstrom (2-1), the second of five Rockies relievers, got the win. Huston Street worked the ninth for his NL-leading 21st save in 23 chances, getting the final out on a hard grounder that Helton snared at first. Travis Hafner hit a 3-run homer his sixth and Carlos Santana had a solo shot for the Indians. Considered the clubs No. 1 starter, Carmona is 1-5 with a 9.73 ERA since May 19. The Indians closed within 7-6 and chased starter Juan Nicasio in the bottom half on Shin-Soo Choos 2-run bloop single. Cleveland left the bases loaded, however, when Gonzalez ran down Cabreras sinking liner in right-center to end the inning. The Rockies tacked on a run in the eighth on catcher Lou Marsons throwing error. Cord Phelps 2-out RBI single in the eighth got the Indians within 8-7 but the rookie was thrown out trying to go to second on the play. TV replays appeared to show he had beaten the tag. Hafners shot into the seats in right put the Indians up 3-1 in the first. Santanas 2-out homer in the fourth his 10th gave Cleveland a 4-1 lead. Carmonas first pitch was ripped for a single by Gonzalez, who stole second. Heltons bloop single moved Gonzalez to third and he scored on Tulowitzkis single. Carmona, though, managed to keep the damage minimal by getting Giambi on a fly out before first baseman Santana made a diving catch on Smiths liner headed for the corner.
inspire a reversal by the Marlins, who are 1-19 in June. The losing streak is their longest since 1998, when they lost 108 games. Florida has also dropped 11 consecutive 1-run games, matching another franchise record. Weaver (9-4) tied for the big-league lead in wins. He allowed only five hits and one run to lower his ERA to 2.01, second-best in the majors. Red Sox 14, Padres 5 BOSTON Adrian Gonzalez drove in three runs with a single and double in a 10-run seventh inning against his former team and the hothitting Boston Red Sox rolled over struggling San Diego. Gonzalez boosted his majorsleading RBI total to 67 since the Padres, unable to give him a lucrative contract, traded him to the Red Sox in the offseason for three top prospects. He went 3-for-5 to increase his batting average to .353. With the score tied at 3 going into the seventh, Gonzalez drove in the go-ahead run with a 1-out double. After Kevin Youkilis flied out, the Red Sox scored nine more runs. San Diego, which began the day with a majors-low .232 average, has dropped a season-high six straight games. Cubs 6, White Sox 3 CHICAGO Carlos Zambrano kept his cool this time after a tough first inning and Carlos Pena hit a 3-run homer to lead the Cubs to the victory. The first matchup of six this season between the crosstown rivals with losing records drew a crowd of 36,005 to U.S. Cellular Field. White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen was ejected in the sixth inning after apparently arguing that a ball hit near the plate by Alexei Ramirez should have been ruled foul. Zambrano (6-4), who had a meltdown nearly a year ago at the home of the White Sox, recovered from a shaky 3-run first that included Paul Konerkos 20th homer. He allowed seven hits over eight innings. Starlin Castro drove in three runs for the Cubs and Carlos Marmol finished for his 15th save. Gavin Floyd (6-7) gave up five hits and six runs in 5-plus innings for the White Sox. Braves 2, Blue Jays 0 ATLANTA Tim Hudson took a 1-hitter into the ninth inning and hit his second career home run, powering Atlanta to the win. Hudson (6-6) allowed two hits, walked one and struck out a seasonhigh eight, including the 1,600th of his career. He connected off Ricky Romero (6-7) for a 2-run homer with two outs in the seventh. Hudson retired 20 straight

creating a partial schedule for Martin that got him running up front again and renewed his passion for racing. But sponsorship is so critical and Frye learned that twice before: regardless of how strong his programs were, when the money grew tight, the team suffered. Frye might very well be able to continue next season with the bones of Red Bull intact but no bigname driver can consider joining the team at this point. So that sends Bowyer back to the drawing board if he ever had one foot out the door at RCR and Brian Vickers, who left Hendrick Motorsports in 2007 to be Red Bulls first driver, on the market. Theyll all be watching and waiting to see what happens with Edwards, the current Sprint Cup Series points leader, who seems intent on exploring every free agency possibility. His Roush-Fenway Racing teammate Greg Biffle

Theres a handful of wild cards that also must be considered: where will Danica Patrick go when she moves full time to NASCAR as expected at the end of the IndyCar season? She could go to a full Nationwide Series ride but any move to NASCAR would be with the intent of joining the Sprint Cup Series as her advisers might think racing at the junior varsity level is a waste of time. And whats going to happen to Martin when Kahne takes his Hendrick Motorsports seat at the end of this season? Martin repeatedly has said he wont walk away from racing. Many expected him to work out some sort of deal with Frye and Red Bull on another partial schedule maybe even one shared with Cole Whitt, the promising development driver now stuck in a state of uncertainty at Red Bull. Maybe Martin could be the partner Frye needs to keep the doors open. Or perhaps theres room for Martin and/ or Patrick at Stewart-Haas Racing, where team owner Tony Stewart has always said hed like to expand to a third team. He has no desire to start a Nationwide program for Patrick but certainly is interested in her GoDaddy.com sponsorship money.

Nova leads Yankees past Reds 5-3

By JOE KAY The Associated Press CINCINNATI Rookie Ivan Nova held down the NLs most prolific offense for eight innings Monday night and Alex Rodriguez started New Yorks 4-run first inning with an RBI single, leading the New York Yankees to a 5-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. The Yankees have won 9-of11, moving a season-best 13 games over .500 at 42-29. New York started fast against left-hander Travis Wood (5-5), who made an unexpected start. Originally scheduled to pitch today, he was moved up a day when Johnny Cueto showed up with a stiff neck. Nova (7-4) made it stand up by using his slider and changeup more than he has all season. The rookie won his third straight start, allowing a run and four singles without walking a batter. Fifteen of Cincinnatis outs came off ground balls. The ALs top bullpen allowed the Reds to rally in the ninth. Brandon Phillips led off with a single and Boone Logan hit Joey Votto with none out. Mariano Rivera came on and gave up Scott Rolens RBI single and Chris Heiseys run-scoring forceout before fanning pinch-hitter Edgar Renteria for his 18th save in 21

chances. Reds lead the NL in runs but have struggled lately. They scored four runs all off homers while dropping 2-of-3 games vs Toronto over the weekend. They put together four singles and Robinson Cano had an RBI double in the first inning to help build a 4-0 lead against Wood, who needed 33 pitches to get three outs. Rodriguezs single drove home the first run and gave him 178 career interleague RBIs, the most by any player. The bangedup Rodriguez had a pair of hits and got the last inning off. Wood, facing the Yankees for the first time, gave up only one more hit through the seventh. Cincinnati got a pair of singles in the first, when Votto grounded into a run-scoring double play that prevented a big inning. The Reds late pitching change benefited outfielder Andruw Jones, who got into the lineup against the left-handed Wood. He singled home the Yankees final run in the first inning. Jones also grounded into a double play in the third, stumbling out of the box and pulling up halfway down the line after rolling his left ankle while swinging. Jones stayed in the game until the seventh.

Angels 2, Marlins 1 MIAMI With their new old manager, the free-falling Florida Marlins had the same old result. Jered Weaver pitched seven innings and the Los Angeles Angels spoiled 80-year-old Jack McKeons return to the dugout Monday night with a 2-1 win over the Marlins, who tied a franchise record with their 11th consecutive loss. The game came hours after the Marlins introduced McKeon as their interim manager for the rest of the season. He came out of retirement to replace Edwin Rodriguez, who resigned Sunday. The change in leadership failed to

Dodgers 4, Tigers 0 LOS ANGELES Clayton Kershaw threw a 2-hitter with 11 strikeouts for his third career shutout, leading Los Angeles over Detroit. Juan Uribe homered and Dioner Navarro had an RBI double for the Dodgers. Kershaw (7-3) threw 112 pitches, tied his season high for strikeouts and walked one in his second shutout of the year. He allowed a double in the third by Ryan Raburn and a single in the fourth by Casper Wells. The 23-year-old lefty had a 2-run single in the eighth and then closed it out by striking out the side in the ninth. Rangers 8, Astros 3 ARLINGTON, Texas Adrian Beltre had a pair of RBI singles among his three hits, Josh Hamilton hit a 2-run triple off the wall and the Rangers opened the Lone Star Series with a win. The AL West leaders scored in each of the first three innings. Derek Holland (6-2) pitched into the eighth, allowing three runs and six hits over 7 1/3 innings. J.A. Happ (3-9) gave up seven runs, five earned, and eight hits over 2 2/3 innings. Orioles 8, Pirates 3 PITTSBURGH Nick Markakis had three hits and Jake Arrieta moved into a tie for the American League lead in wins as Baltimore pounded Pittsburgh. Arrieta (9-4) gave up three runs over five innings and added his first major-league hit to became the first Orioles pitcher to reach nine wins by June 20 since Sidney Ponson in 2003. The Orioles average 6.5 runs per game when Arrieta starts. They needed just two innings to top that mark against struggling starter Charlie Morton (7-4) while handing the Pirates their fourth straight loss. Morton gave up seven runs six earned and eight hits in two innings. Rays 8, Brewers 4 MILWAUKEE Jeff Niemann tossed six scoreless innings in his return from an injury, Evan Longoria homered and drove in four runs and the Tampa Bay Rays beat Milwaukee in their first game at Miller Park. Niemann (2-4) had spent the last 45 days on the disabled list with a lower back strain but looked comfortable while using his big curveball to neutralize the Brewers.

Study: Docs overtesting for cancer virus

By LAURAN NEERGAARD AP Medical Writer WASHINGTON Too many doctors are testing the wrong women, or using the wrong test, for a virus that causes cervical cancer. The days of one-size-fits-all screening for cervical cancer are long gone. How often to get a Pap smear and whether to be tested for the cancer-causing HPV virus at the same time now depend on your age and other circumstances. But a government study reports Monday that a surprising number of doctors and clinics arent following national guidelines on how to perform HPV checks, suggesting a lot of women are getting unnecessary tests. That wastes money and could harm women who wind up getting extra medical care they didnt need, says Dr. Mona Saraiya of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who led the research. Even she wasnt protected from the confusion. Saraiya was stunned to get a bill showing that her own doctor had ordered testing for HPV strains not connected to cervical cancer. The findings, reported in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology, show women have to be savvy to ensure theyre getting the right checkups enough, but not too much. Its extremely discouraging, says Debbie Saslow, gynecologic cancer director at the American Cancer Society, whos had to argue with her doctor against testing too often. We have not been able to get that message across. Cervical cancer grows so slowly that Pap smears which examine cells scraped from the cervix usually find it in time to treat, or even to prevent when precancerous cells are spotted and removed. For decades, Paps were the only way to screen for cervical cancer. Now doctors know that certain strains of HPV, the human papillomavirus, cause most cervical cancer. HPV testing isnt a replacement for the Pap. But it can provide extra information to help determine if a woman is at higher or lower risk and thus guide her ongoing care if its used correctly. The new CDC study, part of a massive national survey of medical practices, examined how doctors are using it. The study found 60 percent of doctors and clinics say they give a routine Pap-plus-HPV test to women who are too young for that combination. National guidelines stress that so-called co-testing is only for women 30 and older. If both tests are negative, they can wait three years before their next screening. Why the age limit? Saslow says HPV is nearly as common as the common cold, especially in younger women but their bodies usually clear the infection on their own and only a years-long infection is risky. Learning that a 20-something has HPV increases the odds of more invasive testing that in turn can leave her cervix less able to handle pregnancy later in life. Younger women are supposed to get HPV testing only if a Pap signals a possible problem and doctors really need the extra information. Then theres the question of which test to use. Only a few so-called high-risk strains of HPV cause cervical cancer, the strains doctors are supposed to test for. Before scientists understood the different HPV types, a test already was on the market that detects strains that can cause genital warts, not cervical cancer. The CDCs Saraiya says theres no reason to use that old test because learning you have a probably transient warts-causing strain doesnt alter your care. Yet her study found 28 percent of doctors and clinics say they order tests for both the cancer-causing and warts-causing strains, regardless of patient age. The study couldnt tell why, although Saraiya says some doctors dont know theres a difference and some order forms for the lab tests dont differentiate.

Graphic cigarette warning McCain stands by comments blaming blazes on immigrants southern part of the state are started by illegal immigrants. By JACQUES BILLEAUD and BOB CHRISTIE labels launch today They did not specify to which fires they were referring but Associated Press framed the debate as a distraction.
By MICHAEL FELBERBAUM AP Tobacco Writer RICHMOND, Va. Coming to a store near you: nine more reasons not to smoke. In the most significant change to U.S. cigarette packs in 25 years, the Food and Drug Administration today is set to release nine new warning labels that will depict in graphic detail the negative health effects of tobacco use. Among the possible images are rotting and diseased teeth and gums and a man with a tracheotomy smoking. The labels will take up the top half of a pack both front and back of cigarette packs. Warning labels also must appear in advertisements and constitute 20 percent of an ad. Cigarette makers have until the fall of 2012 to comply. Mandates to introduce new graphic warning labels were part of a law passed in 2009 that, for the first time, gave the federal government authority to regulate tobacco, including setting guidelines for marketing and labeling, banning certain products and limiting nicotine. The law doesnt let the FDA ban nicotine or tobacco. The announcement follows reviews of scientific literature, public comments and results from an FDA-contracted study of 36 labels proposed last November, which included corpses of smokers, cancer patients and diseased lungs. Some of the labels proposed last year include a mother blowing smoke in her babys face and cigarettes being flushed down the toilet to signify quitting. They include phrases like Smoking can kill you and Cigarettes cause cancer and feature graphic images to convey the dangers of tobacco, which is responsible for about 443,000 deaths in the U.S. per year. Whether the federal government chose to go with more hardhitting images for the new labels or more subtle messages like illustrations of a smoker being controlled by strings like a marionette remains a question. In recent years, more than 30 countries or jurisdictions have introduced labels similar to those being introduced by the FDA. The U.S. first mandated the use of warning labels stating Cigarettes may be hazardous to your health in 1965. Current warning labels a small box with black and white text were put on cigarette packs in the mid-1980s. For a product that kills as many people as smoking, what is the right level of a warning? There are people that are going to argue that so long as theyre going to sell these things in corner stores, they government has a responsibility to warn people to the full extent possible, David Hammond, a health behavior researcher at the University of Waterloo in Canada, who worked with the firm designing the labels for the FDA. The new labels come as the share of Americans who smoke has fallen dramatically since 1970, from nearly 40 percent to about 20 percent. The rate has stalled since about 2004. About 46 million adults in the U.S. smoke cigarettes. Its unclear why declines in smoking have stalled. Some experts have cited tobacco company discount coupons on cigarettes or lack of funding for programs to discourage smoking or to help smokers quit. While it is impossible to say how many people quit because of the labels, various studies suggest that the labels do spur people to quit. The new labels offer the opportunity for a pack-a-day smoker to see graphic warnings on the dangers of cigarettes more than 7,000 times per year. By MICHAEL GORMLEY Associated Press SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. As if Arizonas immigration debate wasnt already hot, Sen. John McCain has ignited a barrage of criticism by saying that there is substantial evidence that illegal immigrants are partly responsible for wildfires in the state. McCain is standing by the statement he made over the weekend as he toured a massive wildfire in eastern Arizona, but immigrant rights advocates say the states senior senator is using illegal immigrants as scapegoats. Authorities have said humans started the three major blazes in Arizona, but investigators dont know any more details. Its his constant refrain for everything that ails mankind, said Roberto Reveles, the founding president and a current member of the Phoenix-based Hispanic civil rights group Somos America. It just seems like we have an epidemic of, Blame it all on the illegal aliens, blame it all on the Mexicans. Its amazing that the public doesnt rebel against this type of scapegoating. The ruckus over McCains comments came as thousands of evacuated Arizonans were allowed to return home from a wildfire that has destroyed 58 homes on the outskirts of Sierra Vista, Ariz., about 15 miles north of the Mexico border. An estimated 1,600 people remain evacuated. Officials say the blazes are the result of human activity. Whether illegal immigrants were involved as has sometimes been the case is unknown. The issue heated up over the weekend when McCain told reporters: There is substantial evidence that some of these fires have been caused by people who have crossed our border illegally. The answer to that part of the problem is to get a secure border. McCain and fellow Arizona Republicans Sen. Jon Kyl and Rep. Paul Gosar released a joint statement Monday defending McCain, saying they had been told that some fires in the By KATE BRUMBACK Associated Press

An HPV test costs $80 to $100, on top of a $40 Pap. Saraiya says labs can bill for two HPV tests when doctors order testing for both kinds of strains. So what does a woman need to know before her next checkup? The CDC has developed a consumer-friendly brochure to help women understand their options for cervical cancer screening: http://tinyurl.com/6g8de6v And guidelines from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommend that: Routine Paps start at age 21. Most women in their 20s get a Pap every two years. Women 30 and older wait three years between screenings if theyve had a negative Pap and negative HPV test, or three consecutive clear Paps. If a Pap is inconclusive at any age, HPV testing may help rule out who needs further examination and who can just repeat a Pap in a year. Anyone whos been vaccinated against HPV, a relatively new vaccine, still must follow guidelines for their age group. Higher-risk women, such as those with HIV or previous cervical abnormalities, need more frequent screening.

By MATT MOORE Associated Press

While Arizonans continue to face the enormous challenges related to these wildfires, its unfortunate that some are inserting their political agenda into this tragedy, their statement said. Rep. Raul Grijalva, a Democrat who represents southwestern Arizona, disagreed with that depiction. They served this, they pandered it, and now (they) say that anybody who criticizes that inappropriate, unsubstantiated claim somehow has a political agenda. This is a tragedy of huge proportions for Arizona. Those of us who criticize it are only reacting to what they started. On the fire lines in Sierra Vista, neighborhoods that had been shrouded in a massive plume of black smoke a day earlier were free of it Monday, and the towering mountain that fed the flames was smoldering. Those forced from their homes waited to be escorted back in. James Hernandez, a retired graphic artist who lives in Hereford, rushed back from vacation in California on Saturday when he heard that the fire had worsened and had jumped four-lane state Route 92. The flames went over that, Hernandez said, noting that wildfires are a part of summer life in southern Arizona and normally arent cause for concern. They have never done that before. As for the Wallow blaze, authorities kept about 200 residents of Luna, N.M., under an evacuation order for a third day Monday. One of the last areas still evacuated near that fire in Arizona reopened Monday as residents of the resort town of Greer began to return home. Authorities reported a new wildfire in north-central Arizona that officials said could threaten power lines running to Phoenix as well as some scattered ranches. The blaze, about 40 miles northeast of Payson, had burned about 305 acres by Monday.

Marriage equality bill unresolved

ALBANY, N.Y. Amped-up rhetoric aside and with seemingly little regard for the national microscope being trained on them, lawmakers in New York will go back to the office Tuesday with the galvanizing issue of gay marriage still unresolved after more than a week of shrieking headlines and backdoor negotiations. In the true essence of Albany, politicians in this nearly 400-yearold city will bargain and bicker over a host of seemingly unconnected issues as gay couples and other states watch closely for indications about which way the national debate is evolving over using the word marriage to describe the union between people of the same sex. Rent control for New York City apartment dwellers will come up. Same, too, for a cap on the amount of taxes municipalities can raise each year. All are set against the backdrop of what national advocates call a basic human right and what opponents call an assault on the religious sanctity of legal marriage between a man and a woman. There was little progress Monday, even as hundreds of chanting protesters from each side of the highly charged debate in New York tried to make their case. The key sticking point appears to be how much freedom to grant religious groups who refuse to perform services or provide related functions like wedding receptions. Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Iowa and the District of Columbia all allow gay marriage. Of them, all but Massachusetts and Washington, D.C., allow at least limited religious exemptions. So, with only two days left in the scheduled legislative session, Republicans who are the last hurdle to gay marriage in the nations third-most populous state will likely adjourn Tuesday morning to their conference room on the right flank of the ornate Senate chamber while reporters and New Yorkers gather outside and wait for the door to open. On Monday, after a three-hour meeting behind those closed doors, the 32 Republican senators emerged without comment. A vote within the private session to even move the bill to the floor for final legislative approval was pushed to at least today as private negotiations continued between Republican Senate leader Dean Skelos and Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has made samesex marriage a major initiative.

ATLANTA Civil liberties groups argued Monday that Georgias law cracking down on illegal immigration should not take effect until a lawsuit challenging it as unconstitutional is resolved, and a judge said he likely would rule on that request before the law takes effect. The lawsuit asks a judge to find the law unconstitutional and to prevent its enforcement. U.S. District Judge Thomas Thrash, who was appointed to the bench by former President Bill Clinton, also heard arguments from a lawyer for the state, who said the lawsuit should be dismissed. Thrash repeatedly questioned Senior Assistant Attorney General Devon Orland, with the exchange sometimes bordering on testy. Omar Jadwat with the American Civil Liberties Union argued the law is fundamentally unconstitutional and infringes on federal authority, while Orland said the measure is needed because medical facilities and prisons are being strained by illegal immigrants. The possible harm the law could inflict on people and organizations is greater than any harm done to the state without the law, so it should be blocked until the courts rule on the merits of the legal challenge, said Karen Tumlin from the National Immigration Law Center. At the end of the hearing, Thrash said he needs more time to consider the arguments because the legal and constitutional issues at play are complex. He expects to decide on the issue before July 1, when most parts of the law take effect. Were optimistic, Jadwat said after the hearing. The judge seemed to grasp a lot of the practical problems posed by this law. The attorney generals office said its waiting for the judges ruling and declined to comment. The measure authorizes law enforcement officers to check the immigration status of suspects who cannot provide identification and to detain and hand over to federal authorities anyone found to be in the country illegally. It also penalizes people who, while committing another crime, knowingly transport or harbor illegal immigrants and makes it a felony to present false documents or information when applying for a job. During the hearing, Thrash on more than one occasion told Orland not to interrupt him and said she wasnt answering his questions. The judge expressed concern that the new law allows individual jurisdictions too much discretion, effectively creating a different policy in every county. He also questioned the motive behind the law. Orland responded that it was to prevent the state from continuing to spend money on illegal immigrants. So theyre supposed to go somewhere else with their husbands, their wives, their children, even though some of them may be U.S. citizens? Thrash asked. Thrash later questioned provisions dealing with people who harbor or transport illegal immigrants, raising a hypothetical scenario of an 18-year-old U.S. citizen who gets pulled over for speeding while driving his mother, an illegal immigrant, to the store. Georgias law has provisions similar to those in laws enacted in Arizona, Utah and Indiana. A federal judge blocked the most controversial parts of Arizonas law last year after the U.S. Department of Justice sued, arguing that only the federal government can regulate immigration. A federal appeals court judge upheld the decision, and Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer has said she plans to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

PHILADELPHIA The lights are going out for Peter Parker, the high school student bitten by a radioactive spider whose wall-crawling and web-slinging antics have made him a touchstone of Marvel Comics universe of heroes and villains. The publisher said today that Parkers alter ego, SpiderMan, will finally succumb to one of his most pernicious foes in the final issue of Ultimate Comics Spider-Man due out Wednesday. Fans of Spider-Man need not worry much, though, because the Ultimates imprint is separate from Marvels bigger universe. Whatever fate may befall Ultimate Spider-Man wont count in the pages of the other series, including Amazing Spider-Man. The death, while dramatic, is not entirely unexpected. In November, Marvel said that the Ultimate Spider-Man was going to face an uncertain fate in the latest storyline by writer Brian Michael Bendis fittingly titled The Death of SpiderMan, an eight-issue arc that saw the return of original series artist Mark Bagley. Bendis and Bagley had worked together on the series for 111 issues. Bendis told The Associated Press that in issue No. 160 Parker fights valiantly but will pass on, heroically, in a pitched fight. To whom? (SPOILER BELOW) He will pass heroically, but he will die at the hands of the Green Goblin, Bendis said, recalling his nearly 11 years writing the title, which debuted in October 2000. The death is real and in Marvels Ultimate Comics imprint, death is not something taken lightly. Characters in that universe are dead and gone, never to return. The roll of the deceased already includes Magneto, Wasp and Wolverine, among others. Ten years ago, Brian Bendis and Mark Millar changed the way people saw super heroes with the birth of the Ultimate Universe. With Death of Spider-Man the two have done it again, creating a story just as big, and something that would really resonate with fans, said Mark Paniccia, Marvel senior editor. But Peters death doesnt signal the end of their larger plan its the start of one of the most ambitious stories youve ever read in comics. Bendis said that Parkers death wont be in vain and hinted that the Ultimate Spider-Man may not be gone forever. But what exactly is to come, thats something hes not willing to share, at least not yet.

On Health
Also, you neglected to indicate whether an X-ray, CT or MRI was performed before a proper diagnosis was made. There are instances in which a physician can physically palpate a spur, but this should be followed up with radiology testing in order to confirm the diagnosis. It may be that because of your age and medical history, your physician does not recommend surgery. Antiinflammatory drugs or pain pills are commonly the first step. Options for any surgical procedure will depend on your full medical history and where the spur is located. Keep in mind that even if you are a candidate for surgery, the spur may be located in an area that is difficult or impossible to operate on. In the interim, avoid any activity that aggravates the pain. Try applying an ice pack to the area several times a day for 15 minutes at a time. If you dont choose to take the pain pill, try over-the-counter nonsteroidal antiinflammatory ibuprofen. If no relief is experienced, make a list of your questions and go back to your doctor for some direct answers. If you are still dissatisfied, request a referral to an orthopedic specialist or pain clinic.

Tomorrows Horoscope
Wednesday, June 22, 2011 Because youll have more occasions in the next year to assume direct control over issues and/or opportunities, youll get a number of chances to make much from little. Itll be up to you to take advantage of your possibilities. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- There could be justification for your optimism. Conditions look exceptionally favorable for you, especially concerning something that is near and dear to your heart. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Youve been looking to do something nice for someone who recently treated you with special consideration, and you might get that chance. Dont let this opportunity pass you by. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- There should be no hesitation to partner up with someone whose ideals and standards closely parallel yours. Instead of going it alone, team up with him or her. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -If you sense that youre in a good achievement cycle right now, dont put any limitations on your imagination, especially where your goals and objectives are concerned. Anything is possible. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Although you might do very well for yourself in ventures or developments that contain elements of chance, dont get reckless and carry things too far. Youve got to discern in order to earn. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Youre likely to do much better in a joint effort than you would going it alone. If you have a chance to team up with someone, dont ignore the added strength in numbers. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You should study and profit from the wisdom and experiences of others whenever you can. It pays to be both a good listener and a keen observer when the chance avails itself. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Regardless of what you think, your past efforts will not go unnoticed, unappreciated or unrewarded. Keep the faith, because what is due is on its way. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -That new admirer of yours out there may be someone youve never had the opportunity to get to know, but all this could change. Be receptive to an extended overture of friendship. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Regardless of how you get there or what you have to go through in order to achieve what you want, remember its the bottom line that counts. Keep your goals in sight at all times. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Youre likely to discover that you could have a chance to be the happy recipient of something good. Keep on doing what is expected of you, and itll come about. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Follow through on any intuitive, persistent perception you get concerning a matter of a financial nature. It could put you on a winning track that you wouldnt otherwise take.
