His account could not be independently confirmed. More than 1.100 people were wounded in the violence. Dr. Yuan Hong of Urumqi People's Hospital said most of the people treated at his facility were clubbed, while others had been cut by knives. Li Zhi. the highest-ranking Communist Party official in Urumqi, told reporters that some of the rioters were university students who were misled and didn't understand w~at they were doing. They would be treated leniently, he sa1d, as long as they wcren 't involved in serious acts of violence and vandalism. But Li added: "To tho~e who committed crimes with cruel means. we will execute them." . He also repeated allegations that the riot was whipped up by L .S. exiled Uighur activist Rebi)a Kadeer and her overseas supporters. ''They're afraid to see our econ'omic prosperity. The) 're afraid to see our ethnic unity and the people li\ ing a stable, prosperous life." he said. Kadeer has denied masterminding the \iolence. and many Uighur' laughed off the notion that they were puppets of groups abroad. ";'\ot even a 3-year-old would believe that Rebiya stirred this up. It's ridiculous:· said a shopkeeper who only identified himself as Ahmet. Like other Uighors. he declined to give his full name because he feared the police would detain him. Ahmet was quick to rattle off a long list of grievances commonly mentioned by Uighurs. He accused the Han Chinese of discrimination and alleged that government policies were forcing them to abandon their culture, lan,guage and Islamic faith. "After all this rioting, I'm still filled with hatred. I'm not afraid of the Han Chinese," Ahmet said. His neighborhood in southern Urumqi was targeted by mpbs of Han Chinese who roamed the capital Tuesday seeking revenge. Ahmet 's friends had video shot by mobile phones and camera~ that showed the stick-wielding Han men beating Uighurs. He pointed to blood stains on a white concrete apartment '"'all. where he said a Uighur was severely stabbed. A Uighur college student who called herself Parizat added , "The men were carrying a Chinese flag. I never thought something like this would happen. We're all Chine:-.c citizens." The Uighurs accused paramilitary police of allowing the "Han Chinese to attack their neighbors. But in the video. the :troops appeared to he trying to block or restrain the mobs. On Wednc,da) , the government warned residents against caiT) ing wt>apons on the street. and most people generally complied . But there were groups of Han Chinese who tried to find son spots in police cordons and rush into Uighur neighborhoods. One such failed attempt sent a wave of terror and panic "through the biggest Uighur neighborhood, Er Dao Qiao. : When someone yelled. "The Han are coming!'' children scampered indoors and women ran shrieking through a backstreet market with ca11s of watermelons. shops selling cold soft d1inb and smoky grills with siZlling lamb kebabs.

Setting a marker for success. they agreed for the first time that worldwide temperatures must not rise more than a few dGgrces.

The wealthy nations failed to persuade the leaders of big de\eloping countries to promise to cut their own fastspreading pollution, unable to O\ercome arguments that the well-cstabli~hed industrial gianb aren't doing enough in the short tetm. ~ Obama and his counterparts from the other \\ealth) Group of Eight nations agreed that global temperatures should be kept from rising by more than 2 degrees Celsius. or 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit. in the fight against weather changes caused by mankind. The results left some Western leaders cheering. British Plime Minister Gordon Brown called the group's statement a "historic agreement ." German Chancellor Angela Merkel said it was "a clear step f01ward." Environmental groups said the effort fell far short in its bid to cut carbon emissions that come mainly from energy production and that trap heat in the atmosphere. Still, climate chance experts said the measure on tr) ing to limit temperature increases - with agreement bv both the G-8 and a 17n1embcr group of industrialized and de\eloping nations meeting here thi~ week was an important step. An increase up to the limit the leaders set wouldn't ~ eliminate the risk of runaway climate change but \VOuld reduce it. experts said. Even a slight increase in a\·erage temperatures could wreak havoc on farmers around the globe. as seasons shift. crops fail and stonns and droughts ra\ age fields. "After a long struggle. all of the G-8 nations have finally accepted the 2degree goaL" said Merkel. The United States and other G-8 nations set a goal of reducing their greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent or more by 2050. That's part of a plan to have all· such gases. from rich and poor nations alike, fall by 50 percent globally by that year. But developing countries feel the better-establi::;hed ~ations aren't doing enough m the shorter term. The) also worry that major reduction commitments on their parts. even if below the 80 percent target of rich nations. would hamper economic growth in China. India, Mexico. Brazil and many other non G-8 countries. As for the target for limiting global temperatures, a summit statement said it reflected a ''broad scientific view."

Environmentalists welcomed the shift in U.S. policy but criticized the G-8's failure to agree on more Immediate goals for the industrial countries. The long-term ambition "is too far off to matter - poor people are being hit today," said Antonio Hill. of the nonprofit Oxfam International. The G-8 leaders also addressed the global recession and agn:ed economk conditions are still too shak) to begin rolling back massh c fi-.cal stimulus plans. A statement :-.aid leaders "note some signs of stabilization." but it stressed the difficult outlook instead of counter-concerns over debt and high spending. The leaders did commit to preparing exit strateg1es from the "unprecedented and concerted · action" that has been taken to boost growth through government spending. low interest rates and expansive monetar~ policy.

OYer a long working dinner. they discussed world securit\ issues ranging from Iran to North Korea. They emerged with a joint statement deploring government-backed violence and media restrictions in the aftermath of Iran's last disputed election month . The co:1demnation and concern were a far crv from the calls b) some for something tougher, such ._, sanctions against Tehran or other action . In the face of Russian opposition. the Iran issue didn't even rate a ~tatemcnt -.eparate from the other sccurit) issues. as had been expected. Konctheless. the Obama team and other leaders porlr<l)Cd the statement <ts a \'ictoIY in its unanimity. "I think it's a strong· statement and it reflects .., a real sense of urgency." said Williams Bums. Obama 's undersecretary of sutte for political all'airs. Obama also announced at the dinner that he will host a nuclear secunt) summit early next \1arch in Washington. Around two dozen nations are expected to attend. to focus on nuclear terrorism, the black markets trade in nuclear materials and the detection and interception of materials in transit. said Obama ad\ iser ~lark Lippert. The abrupt return home from Italy of Chinese President Hu Jintao after ethnic tensions soared in China's western Xingjiang territory could weaken trustbuilding discussiOns on making further progress on climate change. He did leave a national delegation behind. China is among five de\eloping marker economies - along \, .. Brazil. India.

The G-8 document also calls for a rapid conclusion to the stalled Doha round of trade talks. but it doesn't set a deadline. That will be up for discussion on Thursdav.

Dear Annie: A few weeks ago, 1 discovered that my husband had sent a mildly flirtatious e-mail to a female acquaintance. When 1 confronted him, he admitted he found her good-looking. but claimed he wasn't looking to start anything. He said he just w~nts to feel attractive again. He has not written her smce that initial contact. The problem is, this happened once before. I forgave him because I had had a few slip-ups myself (before we were married) and felt he deser\'cd some lcc.,..ay. He swears he has no desire to cheat. but he wants to exercise the right to tlirt now and then. He can't promise it won't happen again. We have a good sex life and toyed with the idea of counseling. We live in a small tm\ n that does not offer free counseling services, and people would not1ce if we went to a therapist. Arc there online counseling services? What can 1 do to stop this from happening again? Or should I just let him have these inild 11irtations every so often and simply look the other way? We truly love each other. - Confused Dear Confused: It depenJs on how much you trust him. If he is flitting without taking it any further and you are willing to put up with that, leaVt.' it alone. If you fear it will lead to an affair or fixation on a pmticular woman, it needs to stop. and counseling can help both of you work on that. Ye~. you can do it online. Local counselors may offer online services (call and find out), or you can find someone through the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (aamft.org) or the Better Business Bureau (bbb.org). • Dear Annie: An employee of a local firm invited my husband and me to a very nice restaurant. Our hosts were two men from a large company. This was definitely a business dinner. It turned out that one of our hosts couldn't attend and instea<.l allowed the employee and his girlfriend to bring her daughter. age 15. Instead of seating the child between them. she ended up next to me. As soon as she sat down. she took out her cell phone, placed it next to her plate and stared at it all evening. l was appalled that she was permitted to be so rude. I did my best to ignore her. talking business with my husband and our host, but my eyes kept drifting back to that phone. Frankly. J was v.·aiting for it to ring so I could toss it in my water glass. How would you tell a rude person (child or adult) to put their distracting phone away? What was her mother thinking? In the meantime, we won't be accepting any more dinner invitations from this employee without a no-child guarantee. - No Cell Mners in Hawaii Dear Hawaii: We feel SOITY for the kid. stuck ha\'ing dinner with her mother\ boyfriend's business associates. Mom should not have brought her, and yes. the girl should have kept the phone in her pocket. purse or lap. but at least she didn't spend the time texting all her friends about how bored she was. There was no reason for you to be fixated on her silent phone. If you could not engage her in conversation. the correct response would be to leave her alone. as you did. Dear Annie: I don't think your answer went far enough for "Desperate for Help in MassachusetL<;," whose otherwise wonderful wife refuses sex and is also a therapist who refuses counseling. For either spouse to deny a physical relationship is a form of abuse. He should seek counseling on his own to determine the next step. This man deserves some answers. -Been There Dear Been There: You arc absolutely right that counseling can helf> him, but we don't know that it will provide the answers his wife is unwilling to give. • Gillilan family holds reumon CHESHIRE- The annual family reunion for the descendants of Elbert and Della Gillilan was held recently at the Kyger Creek power plant Club House.

County Commissioner Mick Davenport said the site is still the commissioners· first choice for a new 24hour emergency room, and • perhaps other services that would complement the Family Health Care practice. The county hopes to secure funding for a new free-standing emergency room through the Economic Development Administration and perhaps other federal stimulus sources. Commissioners will also consider seeking funding for an emergency operations center for that location.

"Loans up to $20,000 for a maximum of 20 years are available at a fixed rate of I%," she said. In most of Southeastern Ohio, the maximum adjusted income limits are as follows, according to the number of persons in the household: 1 person - $18 ,850; 2 people $21 ,500; 3 people- $24,200; and 4 people-$ 26,900. Residents in Be lmont, Licking . Fairfield, and Washington Counties should call for income limits. Households that qualify as elderly may deduct medical ~xp~nses to reach the adjusted limit, Costanzo noted. T hese mclude health insurance premiums, prescription drugs, dental expenses and co-payments. To qualify properties must be in eligible rural areas . Loan funds require a satisfactory credit history, stable source of income, and a budget showing repayment ability for the loan requested. There are also some limitations on net liquid assets. Loan amounts under $7500 may be obtained on a Note-Only basis, with no mortgage required. The monthly cost to the homeowner is $4 .60 per $ 1000 borrowed. For example, a $5000 loan may be obtained for $23 per month.

" It was the CIA itself that took the initiative to notify the oversight committees." Seven Democratic members of the House Intelligence Committee sent a letter to Panetta on June 26 asking that in light of his disclosure he revise a statement he made in May to CIA employees that it was not CIA policy or practice to mislead Congress . The cryptic letter and CIA statement came on the eve of a House debate on an intelligence bill. The debate is expected to revive a partisan argument that has raged on and off for months about whether House Speaker Nancy Pelosi knew in the fall of 2002 about the CIA's use of waterboardim! weeks earlier. " Waterboardlng is an interrogation technique the CIA used on three prisoners in 2002 and 2003. It is a form of simulated drowning that President Barack Obama has called torture. Congre~sional aides expect much of the debate on the House intelligence bill to be diverted into a discussion of what Pelosi knew about the CIA's harsh interrogation program and why. if she was briefed on it. she didn't formally object to it. Pelosi told reporters in May she had not been informed that waterboarding had been used against terrorism sus pects, even though it had been. When asked whether she was accusmg the CIA of lying to her. she said, "Yes." ,.. The CIA sent lawmakers a chart in May describing the 40 congressiOnal briefings it gave on the interrogation techniques. But that document was found to include severa! errors, leaving in question exactly what Pelosi was told. The GOP seited on her accusation that the CIA misled Congress. contending that the California Democrat's remarks have demoralized the intelligence community. t.Iouse Republicans have repeated!) demanded that a bipar!j.san panel investigate her allegations . Rep. Rush Holt. D-N .J .. one of the authors of the June 26 ~etter to Panetta. said the June revelation to the committee bolsters Pelosi\ case. -,"If people arc saying.

Nashville police spokesman Don Aaron confirmed that police were called to a residence and found McNair and a woman shot to death inside. Aaron said authorities don't 'yet know the circumstances of the shooting. NASHVILLE. Tenn. (AP) - Fom1er NFL star Steve McNair was shot dead in his sleep last week by a 20-yeru·old girlfriend distraught about mounting financial problems and her be! lief that he was seemg someone else, police said Wednesday.

She told a friend on Friday that ''My life is a ball of s--<md I should end it." Serpas said. Police earlier had labeled McNair's death a homicide. but waited for furthor tests and the revelations about Kazemi 's personal problems before concluding that she pulled the trigger of a 9 mm .. semiautomatic pistol in a condominium McNair rented with a friend. McNair, 36, a g,uarterback for the Tennessee 1 itans most of his career. met Kazemi six months ago at a sports cafe where she was a waitress and his family often ate. She seemed happy and eager to build a life with him, but something went wrong. ··we do know that she was clearly sending a message during the last tive to seven tlays o( her life that things were going bad quickly," · Serpas said. though there was no indication she told ru1yone she plrumed to hann l\1cNair. Serpas said detecth es leru11cd that Kazemi recently found out about another young woman she thought McNair was romantically involved with and had even followed that woman' home, though she did not confront her. Serpas said police believe McNair was a-;leep when he was killed because there were ·no defi:nsive wounds. After shooting McNair in the head, Kazemi apparently shot him twice in the chest before shooting him again in the head. Before shooting herself, she sat next to his body ru1d "tried to stage it so she would fall in hb lap," Serpas said. She did, but her body slid to the floor and ended up at McNair's feet.

Some good and bad as baseball heads to break To juice up baseball's midseason classic next Tuesday all living former presidents will pay homage to the game in a video, and the current gresident will throw out the opening pitch in St. Louis. Ratings might be better if they simply played Michael Jackson tribute videos between innings. but the presidents were already booked. You can't move them to the Home Run Derby the night before, because even they must know that has become unwatchable. The All-Star game isn't what it once was either. despite Bud Selig's effort to make sure it really counts. Yes. home field advantage in the World Series is at stake, but interleague play has taken all the mystery and much of the fun out of the game. It does, however, signal the traditional middle of what up to now has been an intriguing season - though not always for the right reasons. Although there's another half season yet to be played, it's a good time to look back and find some winners and losers as baseball prepares to take its annual break. A few highlights, beginning with winners: - - Baseball itself. Faced with the worst economy since the Great Depression the game has managed to survive, if not exactly flourish. Attendance is down in 20 out of 30 markets. but aggressive promotions and pricing have helped trim losses. On an average night nearly a half million people manage to find their way to a major league ballpark to enjoy a game. Despite the aberrations in New York, o\\ners ·seem to have figured out they need to compete for a shrinking pile of tnoney Americans have set aside for entertainment. something that bodes well for the game in the future. Juicers. Yes, Alex Rodriguez was forced to admit Tim Dahlberg meanwhile. on the $243 million given to CC Sabathia and AJ. Bumett, and Yankee fans aren't going to tolerate A-Rod hitting .246 forever. The Yankees have played well lately. though. unlike the hapless Mets. who seem determined to celebrate the PU:'>t in their new ballpark by posing as members of the bumbhng 1962 team that lost 120 games. - Juan Pierre. He struted in the Dodger outfield before Rannrez arrived and was the best everyday player on the team when he was gone. His reward was a trip back to the bench. His only consolation is that baseball contracts are guaranteed. and he·s making $9 million a year. - Toronto Blue Jays. Right now they have a winning record and the best pitcher in the American League. Soon they may have neither. Trapped in a division they can't win. they· re open to offers for Roy Halladay. while fans are showing their displeasure by staying away in large munbers. - Chicago Cubs. Throwing a lot of money at Alfonso Soriano and Carlos 7..ambrano couldn ·t get the team pa<>t the first round of the playoffs; nm.v. the Cubs ru-e a mediocre team hamstrung by long-tem1 contracts. Things got worse a fev. days ago when starter Ryan Dempster broke his toe while jumping out of the dugout to celebrate a win and will be out for a month or so. Do the proposed new owners really know what they're getting into? Probably not, but neither do we. Good or bad, baseball has been throwing us curves for a long time now. The best news right now is we have another half a season to enjoy it. Tim Dahlberg is a national !.ports columnist for The Associated Press. m·itc to him to things he didn't want to admit to. Yes, Manny Ramirez lost more than $7 million for his enforced summer vacation. But the welcome back both superstars got from steroid-weary fans speaks volumes, and there are still 100 or so players who tested positive in 2003 whose names remain secret. The Los Angeles Dodger$. They're the biggest winner on the field so far. Not only did they get'through the Ramirez suspension intact, they are probably going to be a better team because of it. The idea of Joe Torre possibly managing in a World Selies against the Yankees in New York makes the second half of their season even more tantalizing. - Albert Pujols. He was already regarded as one of the best in the game. Now we have to start wondering if he is one of the best ever. Entering the All-Star break, Pujols is leading the National League in home runs and RBI and is tied for second in batting average, giving him a Jegit:irnate chance to become the first triple crown winner since Carl Yast:rz.emski did it 42 years ago. Too bad it has to happen in the steroid era, where the accomplishments of every player automatically fall under suspicion. And some losers: - New Yorkers. The new stadium in the Bronx is a bandbox, and the padded $2,500 seats behind home plate an affront to all Americans still lucky enough to be drawing a paycheck. The jury's still out, at tdahlberg@ap.ml{ NEWPORT, R.I. (APJ Alex Bogomolov Jr. unexpectedly found himself in the spotlight at the Hall of Fame Tennis Championships on Wednesday. upsetting fifthseeded Armud Ckment of France 1-6. 6-3. 6-4 in the opening round of the rainhampered event.

Bogomolo\ said of the unexpected crowd. "I don ·r know why it didn't bother me like it did him." Bogomolov, who was born in Moscow but now lives in Miami. broke Clement's serve in the ninth game of the final set to take control. He had left wrist surgery in March and lost four Challenger events this year. "Tennis is tough." Bo1zomolov said with a smile. "l come back and lose four Challenger events. go to Wimbledon and lose in the first round and come here and beat the 59th player in the world.'' Reds bunt and pinch-hitter Eric Bmntlett flied to right. Jimmy Rollins walked. Victorino followed with a liner to left-center that scored FeI iz. 'The guy is their hottest hitter right now. He's trying to make the All-Star team," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. Reds starter Homer Bailey allowed two runs ru1d seven hits, striking out a cru'Cer-high six in six innings. It was his second straight tine effort that resulted in a no-decision. The 22-year-old right-hander allowed three hits and two 1uns in a career-high 7 1-3 innings against St. Louis last week. Lopez gave up two nms and five hits in his ~cond start since ha-ving elbow ligament replacement surgery in July 2007. He was filling in for injured rookie Antonio Bastardo. who made five stmt<; after Brett Myers wao;; sidelined with a hip injmy that required surgery.

Reliever Ryan Madson (34) tossed two scoreless innings to earn the win in his longest outmg this season.

"I feel much better now." said Lopez. who isn't scheduled to pitch for almost t\vO weeks because of the All-Star break. "I think l can pitch the 20th.''

Aft~r Paul Bako popped up a ~cheduled ESPN paid Beckham's management company , NEW YORK (AP) ESPN paid David Beckham's management company to produce a one-hour documentary ori the soccer star that aired two years ago, according to a new book on the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder.

The book is scheduled for publication on July 16, when Beckham is scheduled to play his first match for the Galaxy following a half-season loan to AC Milan_. In an excerpt in SI last week, Galaxy teammate Landon Donovan questioned Beckham's commitment to the team. · Los Angeles, which failed to make the playoffs in each of Beckham's first two seasons, is portrayed as a team beset by management infighting involvmg Anschutz Entertainment Group chief executive officer Tim Leiweke. former president and general manager Alex.i Lalas, coaches Frank Yallop and Ruud Gullit and Beckham personal manager Teny Byrne.
