Obama meets astronauts; no
promise of moon or ·Mars
WASHI~GTO~ (AP) - The same question that cuulu
have been asked 40 ) cars aco moments after :\eil Armstron!!
stepped on the moon is still being asked today: Now what?On the 40th anniversan of man's first moon landm!!. the
Apollo 11 crew met \\ ith President Barack Obama.~ who
used the opp011unity to talk about inspiration and science
and math education. He didn't talk about going anywhere
in space. not the moon or Mars.
Obama said he wanted to usc Monday's anniversary or
the Apollo moon landing to sho\\ that "math and science
are cool again."
''The touchstone for excellence in exploration and discovery
is always going to be represented by the men of Apollo 11."
Obama said. He said their work sparked "innovation, the
drive. the entrepreneurship, the creativity back here on Earth.''
'~
That's not what the men who went to the moon had in mind.
Earlier in the day. seven Apollo astronauts. including
Apollo l l's Buzz Aldnn. used a news conference to talk
about their desire to go to Mars and not linger on the moon
as long as NASA plans.
''All of us here arc prctt) much convinced that ~tars ts a
goal to shoot for,'' said Tom Stafford. commander ot A. polio
10. which orbited the moon and tested the lunar module.
On a day when. e\ er&gt;'one lauded :'\ASA for landing on the
moon and dreammg btg. the space agency's overall plan for
future e\.ploration remained in a holding pattern. Again.
The Obama administration is waiting for a recommendation from an outside panel. which will examine a return-tothe-moon policy that started under President George W. Bush
and compare that to other goals and different spaceship
designs. With r-.iASA\ new boss Charles Bolden Jr. and its
biggest stars
Am1strong. Aldrin and Apollo 11 crewmatc
Michael Collins - shaking Obama 's hand in the Oval Office.
it was an opportunity to chart a new course to somewhere.
• That\ not what happened.
The U.S. space pmgtam is full uf goals attached to dates.
John F. Kennedy wanted to land a man on the moon by the
,,
end of the decade . Five years ago. Bush said he wanted to
land astronauts back on the moon by 2020. So with
\ Armstrong standing next to him and nodding. Obama said
those magic words: "Keep the goal by 2020.''
But he wasn't finished. "Keep the goal by 2020 of ha\'ing the highest college graduation rates of any country on
Earth. especially in th7 math and science fields."
It \\as not about gomg somewhere old or new. It wasn't
about NASA. It was about education.
The Obama administration isn't quite ready to make longterm commitments to space exploration. said John Logsdon.
former George Washington lJniversit) space policy director.
Human exploration is I\ASA's shining past. but some of
- the agency's best recent work has been done without
humans. such as robots on \lfars. space telescopes and
Earth-observing satellites, said Smithsonian space curator
Roger Launius. He said "it's become painfully obvious"
that I\ASA's robots "are kind of the new sexy thing."

Aldrin. suggested the S100

much and that the outpost

testbed for human missions
to Mars and even asteroids.

Complicating matters was

US, SKorea seeking new
way of disarming NKorea
SEOUL, South Korea
AP)- The U.S. and South
Korea are hatching a "compretJ~nsivc" strategy for persuadtn0 ~onh Korea to dismantk t:s nuclear \\Capons
program, brea4!ng from the
step-by-step process that has
seen Pyongyang backtrack
on pledges.
Assistant U.S. Sccretar)
of State Kurt Campbell discu~sed the new strategy with
chtef South Korean nuclear
envoy Wi Sung-lac during
talks Monday, Foreign
Mlnbtry spokesman Moon
Tae-young said.
The possibility of a new
approach
came
as
Pyongyang's isolated communist regime hardened its
boycott of international
nuclear talks after carrying
out its second atomic
weapons test nnd test-tiring
a barrage of banned missiles in defiance of U.i'\.
sanctions.
Campbell first spoke of
the idea Satur~ay. saying
the U.S. and Its partners
would be prepared to offer a
:·comprehensive package
• that would be attractive" to
"North Korea if it returned to
multinational talks aimed at
ending its nuclear programs
and took irreversible steps
to disarm .
South Korean Foreign
.Minister Yu Myung-hwan
·told lawmakers Monday
that such a package
· approach would be aimed at
resolving. all outstanding
issues at once by putting all
of Nurth Korea's obligations and demands on the
table.
Yu did not elaborate but
said disarming the North in
phases, the approach the
talks have pursued so far,

..

is difficult because the
.North can reverse the steps
it has taken.
"We can't repeat the past
negotiating pattern" of
rewarding North Korea for
partial - denuclearization
steps. ministry spokesman
Moon said. "We plan to
continue consultations with
related countries about a
comprehensive solution."
In Washington. State
Department
spokesman
Philip
Crowley
said
Monday that the U.S. ts
willing to do its part if
North Korea agrees to
resume the nuclear dialogue
and take steps toward
nuclear disarmament.
"The ball is in North
Korea's court," Crowley
said. noting that North
Korea will pay a significant
price unless it returns to
talks.
.
North Korea agreed in
February 2007 to disable its
nuclear reactor as a step
toward its ultimate dismantlement in exchange for
energy aid and political conces:.ions.
However. a year ago.
Pyongyang
halted
the
process and later abandoned
the pact over a dispute on
how to verify its nuclear
activities - after it had
received most of the
promised energy aid and
concessions, such as removal
from the U.S. blacklist of
states sponsoring terrorism.
The standoff led to
Pyongyang conducting its
second nuclear test in May
and banned missile tests
early this month. provocations which some analysts
believed \\ere aimed at
dra\\ ing the attention of the
new u:S. administration.

U.S. Secretary of State
Hillary Rodham Clinton
said U.S. was intentionallv
playing dO\\ n the impact of
North Korea's nuclear tests.
"We wcrcn 't going to gi\'c
the North Koreans the satisfaction thcv• wen~ lookin~'e
for. which "as to elevate
them to center stage.''
Clinton .said in an ABC
interview
broadcast
1\londay from India.
The North also quit the
talks aimed at ending its
nuclear ambitions in April
in anger over a U.N. rebuke
for launching a long-range
rocket. The country's No. 2
leader. Kim Yong Nam, said
last week that the nuclear
talk:., arc permanently O\'er.
Cumpbe II, at the start of
talks with Wi, '&gt;aid: "We
need to make sure that
we're extreme!) closely
coordinated in a very critical P,eriod ahead.''
The two also talked about
implcm nting U.N. sane
tions pum~hing Pyong)ang
for its latest atomic test and
getting the communist
regime to return to nuclear
negotiations, Moon said.
South Korea's coast uard
said Monday that it is drawing up guidelines on ho\\ to
inspect North Korean ships
su);peetcd of carrying
banned items - a process
thai ts expech.'d to enrage
Pyongyang, whtch has
\Vamcd it would consider
such inspections a declaration of war.
The move to 111spcct ships
ts in line with recl!nt U.N.
sanctions that damp down
on North Korea's alleged
trading of banned arms and
\\Capons-related material, a
key ...ourcc of hard curTcncy

Monday that a toxicology report also showed a trace
amount of marijuana in the body of Sahel Kazemi. Pol ice
say the 20-year-old Kazemi said shot McNair July 4 in a
Nashville condo before killing herself.
Police say McNair was likely asleep when he was shot
tw1ce in the head and tv.ice in the chest.
Li said there was no way to tell from the report how
long before McNair's death he had been drinking.
Kazemi was arrested for drunken driving in Nashville
two days before the shooting.

Suit accuses Mavericks owner of diverting profits
DALLAS (APl - Dallas
Mavericks owner Mark
Cuban is accused of wrongfully divertin·g millions of
dollars from the NBA tranchise 's home e:frena to help
make up for cash shortfalls
incutTed by the team. accord
ing to a lawsuit tiled by a
company controlled by the
team's former owner.
The lawsuit claims Cuban
covered the Ma\·ericks'
financial shortfalls by obtain
ing more than $29 million in
unauthorized loans through a
limited partnership designed
to distribute profits from the
arena. the American Airlines
Center. It accuses the
Maverick.s and three other
companies controlled by
Cuban of breach of contract.
breach of fiduciary duty and
unJU"t enrichment.
. The company that filed the
suit,
Hillwood
Center
Partners. is controlletl by former Mavericks owner Ross
Perot Jr. and holds a small
interest in the arena·s limited
prutnership, Radical Arena. A
related Perot company sold
the Mavericks to Cuban in
2000.
The lawsuit was filed
Wednesday in state district
court in Dallas. and a copy
was obtained Monday by The
Associated Press.
In an e-mail to media,
Cuban satd his attorneys
have been open with Perot
about the loans. He said the
proceeds have been used "to
put the
best possible
Mavericks te-am on the
court.'' creating sellouts for
the arena and driving custamers to nearby businesses.
Cuban said he believes
• Perot is "lt)ing to find nickels in the sofa cushion" in an
attempt to recapture losses
stemming from the Victory
project. the retail and oftice

development sun·ounding the
arena. Perot's development
company gave up its stake in
the project to German
investors in April. resulting
in a reported loss of $100
million .
"I have to tell you that the
biggest mistake I made in
buying the Mavs was in not
completely
buying
out
(Per,ot's) interest.'' Cuban
wrote.
Hillwood
spokesman
Eddie Reeves said the company tried unsuccessfully to
resol\c its issue with Cuban
before filing the lawsuit.
"At this point. we feel this
is the only option we are
left," he said.
The suit claims Cuban, acting as Radical Arena's general pat1ner, caused the partnership to make multiple loans
to the Mavericks instead of
distributing the funds within
the corporation. The first
loan was made in September
2006. and provided the
Mavericks with $20 million
at an interest rate of 5 A percent. according to the laY.'suit.
The transaction allowed
the Mavericks to enjoy terms
''substantially more favorable" than those the team
would have obtained from an
independent or unrelated
lender, according to the suit.
By not guaranteeing repayment of the note, Cuban
avoided personal liability and
obtained a substantial benefit
for himself, the lawsuit
alleges.
Cuban has twice extended
the maturity dates of the loan
and borrowed an additional
$8.1 million. 'i t said. At the
same time, the loan's interest
rate was reduced to 3.5 percent, according to the suit.

Cink rallies past Watson lor British Open win

Stewart Cink of the US, right, reacts after winning a playoff
against Tom Watson of the US, left. following the final round
of the British Open Golf championship, at the Turnberry golf
course, Scotland, on Sunday.

right at the flag. It bounded
through the green, and his
putt back up the slope ran 8
feet past the hole.
Watson steadied himself
over the par putt, and thousands of fans braced themselves.
All week long, as Watson
kept his name atop the leaderboard, there was a feeling that
he couldn't hold up over four
days and 72 holes. Now, he
was 8 feet away from the
unthinkable.
The drama ended as the
ball wobbled off the blade.
obvious that it wasn't struck
hard enough. Watson's shoulders slumped.
For the first time all week.
Watson looked tired. His
approach to the first playoff
hole, No. 5, tumbled into a
pot bunker and led to bogey
to fall one shot behind. After
a remarkable par save on the

par-3 sixth, Watson came
undone.
He hooked his tee shot on
the 17th into grass so deep it
took him two hacks to get
back to the fairway. He threeputted for a double bogey,
while Cink played safe and
smart for a two-putt birdie
and a four-shot lead.
Cink, born tv.·o years
before Watson won his first
claret jug at Carnoustie m
1973, captured his first major
and sixth career victory. He
will move to No. 9 in the
·
world.
''It's been a surreal experi
ence for me,'' Cinl-.. said ...Not
only playing ·one of my
favotite courses and a wonderful tournament. but playing against Tom Watson. This
stuff doesn't happen. I grew
up watching him on TV, hoping to follow In his footsteps,
not playing against him.''

Stewart Cink. who made a
12-foot birdie on the tina!
hole of regulation. took
advantage
of
Watson's
missed opportunity and overwhelmed him in the four-hole
playoff to win by six shots.
Watson stood on the 18th
tee one last time. blinking
away tears. He wasn't alone
in h1s sadness. Thousands of
fans who filled the !:,Trandstands for the first time all

T he loudest cheer was for

Watson missed the winning
putt, was flawless in the playoff and finished with two
birdies. As he gazed at the
fabled claret jug, he paid his

"I don't even know what to
say," Cink said. "My hat's off
to him. He turned back the
clock. Just did a great job. I

people here. too.''
Cink's birdie gave him 69,
and at 2-under 278. it looked
as though he would be the
runner-up.
" It was almost.'' Watson
said . "The dream almost
came true."
Tied. with three other players along the back nine on a
breezy afternoon, Watson
two-putted for par on the
tough 16th hole, where his
c.hallengers all made bogey to
fall back. Then he made an
easy birdie on the par-5 17th.

America's Cup

Swiss engine revving up court spat
SAN DIEGO (AP)
An
engine on an America's Cup
boat?
It's a real jaw-dropper to
Russell Coutts. one of the
most dominant skippers in
America's Cup history who
flO\\ sails for U.S. challenger
BMW Oracle Racing.
It's simply a no-hrainer to
his counterpa11 and former
mate. Brad Butterworth, who
leads two-time America's
Cup champion Alinghi of
Switzerhfnd.
The engine in question
isn't to propel Alinghi 's 90foot catamaran, which will
face BMW Oracle Racing's
equally monstrous trimaran
in a best-of-3 showdown
between the bitter rivals next
February for the oldest trophy in international spo11s.
Rather, it's to provide
hydraulic power to help trim
the sails on the cat. which
sailed for the first time
Monday on Lake Geneva.
The use of the engine is the
most eye-popping issue in a
fight over rules that will go
before
Justice
Shirley
Kornreich of the Supreme
Court of the State of New
York on Tuesday.
''Again, that's just ..." ·
Coutts said Monday. his
voice trailing off while sitting in the San Diego boatyard where his syndicate's
trimaran is berthed. "As you
can see, I'm speechless. An
engine in aa Ametica's Cup
boat? If that's permitted, it
will change the game forever, I think, the wrong way."
A twisting. two-year court
tight between bickering billionaires Larry Ellison of
BMW Oracle Racing and
Ernesto Bettarelli of Alinghi
has led to the rare one-onone showdown in what will
be the. fastest, most po~erful
boats 111 the 158-year hJstory
of the America's Cup.
While both sides say the
racing should be spectacular.
there's little else they've
agreed on.
BMW Oracle Racing contends that Alinghi hasn't pro-

vidcd the rules for the match,
and that the ·Swiss have
claimed the right to change
the rules at any time without
mutual consent.
BMW Oracle Racing has
asl-..ed Kornreich - whose
cmu1 has jurisdiction over
Cup legal spats - to order
Alinghi to use the Racing
Rule~s of Sailing without
alterations or be held in contempt.
The issue that jumps out is
the engine. BMW Oracle
Racmg says it isn't allowed
under Rule 52. which covers
manual power: '"A boat's
standing rigging. running
rigging, spars and mo\ able
hull appendages shall be
adjusted and operated only
by manual power."
BMW Oracle R~cing says
the RRS are used by virtually every regatta in the vvorld.
The Americans also sav
Alinghi should be compt!llecl
to folio\\ the rules used hy
its sponsoring yacht club.
Societe Nautique Geneve.
that were in effect when
BMW Oracle Racing issued
its challenge in July 2007.
Those rules didn't allow the
use of an engine to trim sails
or move water ballast. BtvlW
Oracle Racing c;pokesman
Tom Ehman said.
Butterw01th contends that
the Swiss arc merely following the Deed of Gift. the 19th
century document that governs the basics of the
Amenca's Cup and predates
the Racing Rules of Sailing.
So '" hile BMW Oracle
Racing is relying on crewmen called grinders to turn
the winches~ that trim the
sails, the Swiss want to do it
with an engine.
"We're moving things
hydraulically." Butterworth
said by phone after tmiving
111 New York for Tuesdav's
hearing. "The loads on this
boat are just horrendous . A.
it's difficult to gear up for
something like that. and B. I
think it's safer to have that
systt-m. \\here you don't
have so many people clutter-

ing the whole boat, and it
makes life a little bit safer for
the guys that are sailing the
boat."
Butten' orth joked that the
Swiss engine isn't powerful
enough to win a motorcycle
race. But he :;aid they didn··
consider other options ~
trimming the sails "because
this is a bit of a no-brainer. It
makes the whole package a
lot more reasonable.
"The Cup for me has
al\~ays been a design race:·
added Butterworth, who
sailed with Coutts through
three victorious America's
Cup matches, the first two
with Team New Zealand and
then with Alinghi in 2003.
"Nov.·. it's an unlimited
design race. This is the most
interesting de'iign Cup that's
ever been. I think, because
there ·s just no parameters.
You can do what you want."
B.l\.1W Oracle J Racing
hopes Kornreich rules from
the bench, as she did in May
concerning the race dates
and other tssues.
"This is so blatant that I
expect she will," said Coutts,
\lho added that an engine for
trimming sails goes against
one of the cornerstones of
sailing .
•
"I don't think I'm alone o
that one," Coutts said. "I
think without doing a survey,
I bet the vast majority of
people would be against
that."
Coutts said trimming the
sails aboard BOR 90 sometimes takes all hands except
the helmsman.
"The big boats, the big
loads. that'&lt;; part of the physical challenge of sailing any
of the Cup boats I've sailed
on," he said. '"If you take that
aspect out. you're changing
the game dramatically."
Ehnian said the Americans
simply want some certainty.
'"It's almost less important
what the rules are and more
important that they stop trying to change the rules on us
for their own purposes," he
said.
