The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change BY ARTHUR MAX I<.ARACHI, Pakistan Rival ethnic groups fought gunbanles in this hub of economic growth Sunday, an ominous turn in a political crisis that ·started with the ouster of Pakistan's top judge. The death toll from a weekeno of fighting rose to 41. Funeral processions were accompanied by gunfights between ethnic Pashtuns and .Urdu:speaking supporters of · a pro-government party. Gunmen fired on ambulances, killing at least one driver, and the bullet· ridden bodies of some victims were found tied and blindfolded. The fighting in Karachi has marked a serious escalation in a crisis that began when President Gen. P.ervez Musharraf suspended the i nde pendent-minded supreme court chief on March 9. It has raised the specter of a return to ethnic bloodshed in a port city of 15 million people that has been the center of Pakistan 's fast-growing economy. . The government · said it deployed 15,000 security forces to Karachi, but there · was no sign that they intervened to stop the violence. Opposition parties blamed Musharraf and his supporters in the Mutahida Qaumi Movement party of starting the violence. The Karachi-based MQM party draws its main support from the Mohajirs Muslims who fled India after the partition of the subcontinent at independence from Britain in 1947. Th~ pany emerged in the 1980s when Mohajir resentment of Pashtun control of businesses and publlc trans· port boiled over into violence that killed hundreds. Musharraf, a U.S. ally who took power in a 1999 coup, is himself a Mohajir, though he does not belong to the MQM. Security force s failed to restore order despite the deployment of armored personnel carriers and pickup trucks topped with machine guns. In a northem district, firefighters battled flames spreading through a row of Pashtun-owned shops after a funeral procession for an. · AP photo A Pakistani protester jumps over lyres set on fi re to condemn Saiurday's violence in Karachi, Pakistan on Sunday in Karachi , Pakistan. Pro-government and opposition groups blamed each other for the worst political violence to grip Pakistan in years, as fresh riots broke out and the toll from bloody street battles in Karachi rose to 37 dead and over 150 wounded. MQM activist killed the day before passed through. Gunmen traded fire across a road dividing a Pashtun-dominated residential area from a mainly Urdu-speaking quarter in western Karachi. Most' of the victims of two days of violence appeared to be Pashtun, including, police and a doctor said, tile bodies of two men found tied and blind- · folded Sunday in an MQM stronghold. · Police also said they found the bullet-ridden body of an MQM activist. Hospital officials said the death toll mounted to 41 with about I SO wounded. · Anwar Kazmi, an official for the Edhi charitable foundation, said its ambulance crews had been shot at six times over the w~ek­ end. In one incident, gun· men killed a driver and two patients at a roadblock. The trouble in Karachi started when opposition leaders and the MQM called rival demonstrations Saturday to coincide with a visit by suspended Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry. Musharraf accused Chaudhry of abusing · his position, but opposition leaders said he wanted to sideline the judge ahead of possi ble legal challenges to hi s pursuit of another eightyear term in a parliamentary vote this fall. Opponents accuse Musharraf of letting the MQM attack its rivals .in an attempt to stoke turmoil and justify postponing both the presidential vote and parliamentary elections. "We condemn this mayhem and we believe that the MQM could not have done it without the active support of Gen. Pervez Musharraf," said Farhatullah Babar, a spokesman for the main opposition Pakistan Peoples Party. "It shows that the government wanted to ere· ate a situation of ci vii strife to find an excuse for imposing an emer~ency and postponing elecuons." In his own mass rally in Islamabad late Saturday, Musharraf insisted he would not declare a state of emergency and said elections would go ahead a planned: "My heart was weeping when I saw that people 1 were dying , they were being killed, they were being martyred," he told the crowd . The MQM acccused opposition parties of starting the violence. "They tried to give an impression that the ethnic residents are fighting each other," said Farooq Sattar, a senior party lawmaker. Rasul Baksh Rais, prok~­ sor of po.litical science at Lahore University of Management Sciences, said the perception that authorities used the MQM to "teach a lesson" to its opponents could backfire on Musharraf. Ethnic violence could flare in other regions, such as the already unstable Pashtun belt along the Afghan border, Rais said. "If the government resorts to violence, what can you expect from the opposition because then there is no faith in the law-enforcing agencies and there is no faith in the credibility of the. government and whatever it says," he said. ·We remember those who have passed.away and are especially dear to us.

He also is seeking. to build support for the delicate Iraqi government. . Cheney is only one part of a U.S. tag team. The second member, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, seems to be playing on the other side of the street. The vice president has emphasized a hard line on Iran over the past week in stop~ . in moderate Arab nations and talks to U.S. troops in Iraq and on an air· craft carrier in the Persian Gulf. He· .has urged Arab countries to do more to help stabilize the Iraqi government and hinted that Washington would work to keep Iran from dominating the region.

Throw out a life raft and get her help I BY KATHY MITCHELL AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: My daughter, "Callie," is in eighth grade and always has done well academically. She usually gets As and Bs. with a few Cs every now and then. We don't mind her getting a C. as long as we know she tried her best. The problem is, Callie is havin g a hard time in one particular subject and has a D average in that class. She will not ask for help. She says she doesn' t like the teacher and if she asks for help , the teacher will only confuse her more. Callie has never approached any teacher for help. I don 't know if she 's em,barrassed to ask or if she's afraid. My husband explained to Callie that it's her responsibility to tell the teacher she needs assis tance. I'm worried that my daughter won't do anything for the rest of the semester and get a D or, worse. fail altogether. I understand she needs to take responsibility, but as a parent, I also think I need to intercede somehow. What should I do? A Concerned Parent in the U.S. Dear Concerned: It may be unrealistic to expect an .eighth-grader to have the courage to ask a teacher whom she dislikes for help. And frankly, we ' re surprised the teacher ·hasn't suggested tutoring. since it is obvious Callie is ·s truggling. Stop waiting for her to "take respon sibility." She's sinking. Throw her a life raft already. Call the teacher and discuss the situ- attorney for Scarlett. ''This was really atypical of her whole life." Scarlett originally faced 18 felony charges in a trial scheduled to begin Monday. Following the plea deal with. prosecutors, a sentencing hearing was scheduled for June 12 in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. She faces a maximum sentence of 17 · years in prison. Her affair with the student became public after Bradigan sued Scarlett and the school district last year. Bradigan, who has a hearing problem and a learning deficiency, accused her of taking advantage of him and his disability. He also accused school district officials of not reporting her ,to police. A judge's ruling to throw out Bradigan 's lawsuit has· been appealed. Stacey ·.Ganor, Scarlett's lawyer in the civil case, said nothing would be gained if Scarlett goes to prison.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change BY ARTHUR MAX I<.ARACHI, Pakistan Rival ethnic groups fought gunbanles in this hub of economic growth Sunday, an ominous turn in a political crisis that ·started with the ouster of Pakistan's top judge. The death toll from a weekeno of fighting rose to 41. Funeral processions were accompanied by gunfights between ethnic Pashtuns and .Urdu:speaking supporters of · a pro-government party. Gunmen fired on ambulances, killing at least one driver, and the bullet· ridden bodies of some victims were found tied and blindfolded. The fighting in Karachi has marked a serious escalation in a crisis that began when President Gen. P.ervez Musharraf suspended the i nde pendent-minded supreme court chief on March 9. It has raised the specter of a return to ethnic bloodshed in a port city of 15 million people that has been the center of Pakistan 's fast-growing economy. . The government · said it deployed 15,000 security forces to Karachi, but there · was no sign that they intervened to stop the violence. Opposition parties blamed Musharraf and his supporters in the Mutahida Qaumi Movement party of starting the violence. The Karachi-based MQM party draws its main support from the Mohajirs Muslims who fled India after the partition of the subcontinent at independence from Britain in 1947. Th~ pany emerged in the 1980s when Mohajir resentment of Pashtun control of businesses and publlc trans· port boiled over into violence that killed hundreds. Musharraf, a U.S. ally who took power in a 1999 coup, is himself a Mohajir, though he does not belong to the MQM. Security force s failed to restore order despite the deployment of armored personnel carriers and pickup trucks topped with machine guns. In a northem district, firefighters battled flames spreading through a row of Pashtun-owned shops after a funeral procession for an. · AP photo A Pakistani protester jumps over lyres set on fi re to condemn Saiurday's violence in Karachi, Pakistan on Sunday in Karachi , Pakistan. Pro-government and opposition groups blamed each other for the worst political violence to grip Pakistan in years, as fresh riots broke out and the toll from bloody street battles in Karachi rose to 37 dead and over 150 wounded. MQM activist killed the day before passed through. Gunmen traded fire across a road dividing a Pashtun-dominated residential area from a mainly Urdu-speaking quarter in western Karachi. Most' of the victims of two days of violence appeared to be Pashtun, including, police and a doctor said, tile bodies of two men found tied and blind- · folded Sunday in an MQM stronghold. · Police also said they found the bullet-ridden body of an MQM activist. Hospital officials said the death toll mounted to 41 with about I SO wounded. · Anwar Kazmi, an official for the Edhi charitable foundation, said its ambulance crews had been shot at six times over the w~ek­ end. In one incident, gun· men killed a driver and two patients at a roadblock. The trouble in Karachi started when opposition leaders and the MQM called rival demonstrations Saturday to coincide with a visit by suspended Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry. Musharraf accused Chaudhry of abusing · his position, but opposition leaders said he wanted to sideline the judge ahead of possi ble legal challenges to hi s pursuit of another eightyear term in a parliamentary vote this fall. Opponents accuse Musharraf of letting the MQM attack its rivals .in an attempt to stoke turmoil and justify postponing both the presidential vote and parliamentary elections. "We condemn this mayhem and we believe that the MQM could not have done it without the active support of Gen. Pervez Musharraf," said Farhatullah Babar, a spokesman for the main opposition Pakistan Peoples Party. "It shows that the government wanted to ere· ate a situation of ci vii strife to find an excuse for imposing an emer~ency and postponing elecuons." In his own mass rally in Islamabad late Saturday, Musharraf insisted he would not declare a state of emergency and said elections would go ahead a planned: "My heart was weeping when I saw that people 1 were dying , they were being killed, they were being martyred," he told the crowd . The MQM acccused opposition parties of starting the violence. "They tried to give an impression that the ethnic residents are fighting each other," said Farooq Sattar, a senior party lawmaker. Rasul Baksh Rais, prok~­ sor of po.litical science at Lahore University of Management Sciences, said the perception that authorities used the MQM to "teach a lesson" to its opponents could backfire on Musharraf. Ethnic violence could flare in other regions, such as the already unstable Pashtun belt along the Afghan border, Rais said. "If the government resorts to violence, what can you expect from the opposition because then there is no faith in the law-enforcing agencies and there is no faith in the credibility of the. government and whatever it says," he said. ·We remember those who have passed.away and are especially dear to us.

He also is seeking. to build support for the delicate Iraqi government. . Cheney is only one part of a U.S. tag team. The second member, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, seems to be playing on the other side of the street. The vice president has emphasized a hard line on Iran over the past week in stop~ . in moderate Arab nations and talks to U.S. troops in Iraq and on an air· craft carrier in the Persian Gulf. He· .has urged Arab countries to do more to help stabilize the Iraqi government and hinted that Washington would work to keep Iran from dominating the region.

Throw out a life raft and get her help I BY KATHY MITCHELL AND MARCY SUGAR Dear Annie: My daughter, "Callie," is in eighth grade and always has done well academically. She usually gets As and Bs. with a few Cs every now and then. We don't mind her getting a C. as long as we know she tried her best. The problem is, Callie is havin g a hard time in one particular subject and has a D average in that class. She will not ask for help. She says she doesn' t like the teacher and if she asks for help , the teacher will only confuse her more. Callie has never approached any teacher for help. I don 't know if she 's em,barrassed to ask or if she's afraid. My husband explained to Callie that it's her responsibility to tell the teacher she needs assis tance. I'm worried that my daughter won't do anything for the rest of the semester and get a D or, worse. fail altogether. I understand she needs to take responsibility, but as a parent, I also think I need to intercede somehow. What should I do? A Concerned Parent in the U.S. Dear Concerned: It may be unrealistic to expect an .eighth-grader to have the courage to ask a teacher whom she dislikes for help. And frankly, we ' re surprised the teacher ·hasn't suggested tutoring. since it is obvious Callie is ·s truggling. Stop waiting for her to "take respon sibility." She's sinking. Throw her a life raft already. Call the teacher and discuss the situ- attorney for Scarlett. ''This was really atypical of her whole life." Scarlett originally faced 18 felony charges in a trial scheduled to begin Monday. Following the plea deal with. prosecutors, a sentencing hearing was scheduled for June 12 in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. She faces a maximum sentence of 17 · years in prison. Her affair with the student became public after Bradigan sued Scarlett and the school district last year. Bradigan, who has a hearing problem and a learning deficiency, accused her of taking advantage of him and his disability. He also accused school district officials of not reporting her ,to police. A judge's ruling to throw out Bradigan 's lawsuit has· been appealed. Stacey ·.Ganor, Scarlett's lawyer in the civil case, said nothing would be gained if Scarlett goes to prison.

Capt. Stone is the first of four Marine officers to be charged with dereliction of duty for failing to investigate "properly" 24 civilian deaths in Haditha in November 2005. Having reviewed the facts - what you might call his politically correct job as battalion Capt. Stone lawyer determined no further investigation was warranted. In other words, he came tp a politically incorrect conclusion. (So did his superiors, but he 's the guy on trial - another story.) Capt. Stone could get three years in pri son. Three enlisted Marines are charged with unpremeditated murder. They could get life. At least eight other Marines may have been granted immunity to testify. The wbole case exudes the terrible, rotting stench of eating our own. Described in the heavybreathing press as "the biggest U.S. criminal case involving civilian deaths in the Iraq war," the incident sounds less like a war crime than, well, a war. Here's what happened: A convoy of Marines trolling insurgent:riddled Haditha was hit l;>y a huge lED. A Hum vee was destroyed. One Marine was ki lied .(split in two). Two other Marines were wounded (one grievously). There was a lot of shootin g at an approaching Iraqi car. There was a lot of shooting at two n_earby Iraqi houses where Marines heard . as The New York Times put it, "the distinct metallic sound of an AK-47 being prepared to fite. " As one Marine witness explained, "the ~quad leader thought he was about to kick in the door and walk into a machine gun." In the end, no additional Marines had died. but 24 Iraqi civi lians, including some children, had been killed. And here .lies a hunk of the politically correct outrage fueling prosecutorial fires. According to a leaked ceport chiding Marines for . not investigating further, Army Maj. Gen. Eldon A. · Bargewell was apparently appalled by "statements made by the chain of eommand" that "suggest that Iraqi civilian lives are not as important as U.S. lives, their deaths are just the cost of doing business... :" Maj. Gen. Bargewell was also apparently exercised by the Marine conse nsus that "civilian casualties were to be expected" due to such insurgent tactics as hiding among civilians. "Although this proposition may accu· rately reflect insurgent tactics," he wrote, he heard it so often "that it almost appeared rehearsed." Rehearsed? Notice the contorted way · military brass disparages the exculpatory reality of the Iraqi hattlefield. Meanwhile, three cheers for the Marines. If only someone would mention fo the Waughian-named Maj. Bargewell that when the ''business" is war. the chain of command darn well better co nsider "U.S. lives" more important than "Iraqi civilian lives" (many "civilian" in name only), or guess what? Too many U.S. lives will be lost and the United States won 't win. Victory, however, isn't the objective of our increasingly PC military. Thi s is becoming more and more apparent as the wat:' continues. Which calls into question our very capacity -;not military, but psychological - to wage war. It also calls inio question our continuity with our forbears Capt. Stone's grandfathers, for instance . They might know the uniform but, watching their grandson's show trial, · I doubt they'd recognize much else. (Diana West is a columnist · for The Washington Tim es.

Bush commemorates America's birthplace Bv BEN FELLER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER JAMESTOWN - Fond of promoting the endurance of freedom, President Bush on Sunday hailed the nation's humble beginnings as a reminder that new democracies require huge sacritice. · "From our own history, we know the path to democracy is long and it's hard," Bush said in a ceremony honoring the 400th anniverJamestown, sary . of America's first permanent English colony. "There are many challenges, and there are setbacks along the way," Bush said. "Yet we can have confidence in the outcome because we've seen freedom's power to transform societies." On his first visit to Jamestown as pre'sident. Bush soaked in the scene like a tourist - tirst watching a dig for artifacts, then climbing aboard a replica of a majestic ship. He even grabbed a batbn and playfully led the 400piece orchestra before headmg back home. In his speech, Bush said the United States must stand with those struggling to gain their freedom. He spoke from the place where the country's roots began centuries ago in a swampland. "Today, Democratic institutions are taking root in ·places in places where li.berty was unimaginable not long ago ," the president said. He specifically cited Iraq and Afghanistan. "The advance of freedom is the great story of our time, and new chapters are being written every day," he added. Jamestown in 1607 was a grueling commercial venture, and colonists d_ealt with hunger, violence and hopelessness. But, over Sidewalk from PageA1 Boulevard and Elm Street. Phase one was initially estimated by ODOT engineers to cost $175,000 of which Racine was required to come up with a 20 percent match, which it did, ' and in a hurry according to Clerk Treasurer .Dave Spencer '¥ho said ODOT was insistant on gefting the village's match money "the next day." Spencer said the village had to pay $22,500 up front and it promptly took out a loan and transferred the money to get the project started to 'meet deadline. However, when the bid come in, the price on phase one dropped to $54,000 which entitled the village to a refund, a refund it still hasn' t receive though ' the project was deemed "completed" by ODOT in February. according to Spencer. . That refund will not be as substantial as tirst believed because council wanted a railing>i nstalled along a sec• ,. time, it became a starting point of representative government, free enterprise and cultural diversity. "It is a chance to renew our commitment to help others around the world realize the great blessings of liberty," Bush told several thousand of people in the audience for the celebration. Earlier, Bush and first lady Laura Bush walked the grounds at a leisurely place. On a day that turned from gray to sunny, they began with a walking tour of Historic Jamestowne, where archeologists continue to unearth storied remains. The structure of the settlers' original triangular fort long thought to have been washed way - has been recovered. Bush marveled at a new find - a hilt basket, which is a hand guard .that goes around a sword's handle. The item was discovered the day Queen Elizabeth II visited Jamestown recently and excavated on Sunday, said Mike Litterst, a spokesman for the National Park Service. Bush then strolled through Jamestown Settlement, where early 17th century living is reenacted. The settlement features replicas of the three ships that sailed from England tQ Virginia, along with recreations of the colonists' fort · and an Powhatan Indian village. The president looked at weapons and tools of the time, and willched as the sails of the replica ship he had earlier boarded, the Susan Constant, were unfurled. Thep came four ceremonial cani10n blasts - so loud they made the president shudder. Bush's speech came on the final day of the anniversar~ weekend, the centerpiece of an elaborate ISmonth commemoration in the works for a decade. www.mydallysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page~ AI-Qaida group says it has 3 U.S. troops missing after deadly attack in Iraq that killed 5 BY RAVI NESSMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD - An alQaida front group announced Sunday it had captured American soldiers in a deadly attack the day before, as thousands of U.S. troops· searched insurgent areas south of Baghdad for their three missi ng comrades. The statement came on one of the dead I iest days in the country in recent weelis, with at least 126 people killed or found dead including two American soldiers who died in sepa. rate bombings. A suicide - truck bomb tore through the offices of a Kurdish political party in northern Iraq , killing 50 people, and a car bombing in a crowded Baghdad . market killed another 17. Troops surrounded. the town of Youssifiyah and told residents over loudspeakers to stay inside, residents said. They then methodically searched the houses, focusing on possible secret chambers under .the floors where the soldiers might be hiddeQ, residents said. The soldiers marked each searched house with a white piece of cloth. Soldiers also searched cars entering and leaving the town, writing "searched" on the side of each vehicle they had inspected. Several people were arrested, witnesses said. The Islamic State in Iraq offered no proof for its claim that it was behind the attack Saturday in Mahmoudiya that also killed four U.S. soldiers and an Iraqi translator. But the Sunni area known as the "triangle of death" is a longtime al-Qaida stronghold. If the claim proves true, it would mark one of the most brazen attacks by the umbrella Sunni insurgent group against U.S. forces here. · Maj . .l.Gen. William Caldwell, spokesman for the U.S. military, said 4,000 U.S. troops backed by aircraft and intelligence units were scouring the farming area as the military made "every effort available to find our missing soldiers." President Bush was also getting regular updates on the missi ng soldiers, said Gordon Johndroe, a spokesman for the White House's National Security Council in Washington. · The early morning attack on two U.S. military vehicles outside of Mahmoudiya; about 20 miles south of Baghdad, left the bodies of the four U.S. soldiers and their translator badly burned. Caldwell said the bodies of the interpreter and three of the 'slain soldiers had been identified, but the military was still working to identify the fifth. Later Sunday, the Islamic State of Iraq posted a brief message on a militant Web site saying it was. responsible for the attack and held an unspecified number of U.S. soldiers. The group promised more details later. The Islamic State is a coalition of eight insurgent groups. Late last month, it named a 10-member "Cabinet" complete with a "war minister," an apparent attempt to present the Sunni coalition as an alternative to the U.S. -backed, Shiite-led administration of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. U.S. military officials said they had no indication of who was behind Saturday's attack. "It's difficult to verify anything that al-Qaida in lra9 would say because they lie, ' said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, a military spokesman. However, "it would not surprise us if it were al-Qaida behind thi s, because we've seen this type of attack, this type of tactic, before" ' Insurgents also launched attacks across the country Sunday. with a suicide bomber in northern Iraq slamming a truck into local offices of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, which is headed by Mas soud B&rzani , leader of the autonomous Kurdi sh region in northern Iraq. . Cars were charred and crushed by the blast in Makhmur, a town with a substantial Kurdish populaJion just south of the autonomous Kurdi sh-controlled areas. At least 50 people were killed and 115 were wounded, · including the city's mayor, Abdul Rahman Delaf, who also is a prominent Kurdish writer. and the director of the KDP office, said Ziryan · Othman, the health minister of the Kurdish regional government. "Makhmur ls an open, peaceful area, and al-Qaida is trying to destabilize it by causing fighting between Arabs and Kurds," said Qassim Amin, who son and daughter - who both work for the party were injured. The attack was the second suicide bombing in Kurdish areas in five day s. On Wednesday, a suicide truck bomber devastated the sec urity headquarters in lrbil the capital of the Kurdish autonomous region and one of Iraq's most peaceful citieS - killing at least 15 people and wounding more than 100. The Islamic State of Iraq also claimed responsibility for that blast. · In Baghdad, meanwhile, a parked car exploded near the popular Sadriyah market in the center of the city Sunday, killing .at least 17 people and wounding 46, police said. AP Television News fo'otagc showed a crater in the ground filled With debris. -spl intered wood. metal and a tire. " I 'aw 'pools of blood and charred pieces of flesh ," said Firas Fhadil, the owner of a nearby .electrical appliances shop. Market workers used fruit carts to evacuate the.cas'ualties, because road closures made it difficult for ambulances to reach the area, he said. Sadriyah has been hit by seve·ral blasts usually blamed on Sunni insurgents, who are suspected of targeting commercial areas to kill large numbers of people and derail the Baghdad security crackdown that began 12 weeks ago. On April 18. 127 people were killed in a car bombing in the same area- one of four bombings that day that killed a 101al of 183 people. The U.S. soldiers who died Sunday were killed inbombings in Anbar ancf Salah'uddin provinces, the military said. With violence on the rise, Caldwell announced that an additional 3,000 for~es have been se nt to Diyala province, a province ·northeast of Baghdad and scene of- recent sharp fighting. Last week, the top U.S. commander in the north ,' Maj. Gen. Benjamin Mixon, said he didn't have enough troops to restore order in Diyala. On Sunday. Iraqi gunmen drove into the Diyala capital of Baqouba, pulled two handcuffed men out of the trunk and shot and killed · them, police and witnesses said. "This is the destiny of traitors," the gunmen yelled. Three other civilians also were killed executionstyle in a market in the city ce nter. police said. Hundreds of Florida wildfire evacuees still waiting to go home LAKE CITY, Fla. (AP) Authorities briefly reopened two highways crossing north Florida into Georgia on Sunday before dense wildfire smoke forced them to again halt traffic, while hundreds of Florida residents waited to return to their threatened homes:·· Officials said Sunday that the wildfire that had raced through the Okefenokee Swamp in southeast Georgia and into Florida had charred more than 233,700 acres or .about 365 square miles since it wa~tarted by lightning a week ago. Officials warned that storms in the forecast Sunday could bring either muchneeded rain or lightning. Authorities reopened 90 miles of Interstates 75 and 10 for a couple of hours Sunday morning after wind helped push the heavy smoke away from the highways. But they were later forced to close 35 miles of' I-75 . from the Florida-Georgia state line to Lake City, Fla., as well as a 40-mile stretch of 1-10 in Florida, from Live Oak to Sanderson. A IS-mile stretch of I-75 from Valdosta, Ga., to the Florida state line remained open Sunday. About 570 residents were not being allowed to return to 150 homes evacuated between I- 10 amj the Florida-Georgia state line. Firefighters working Saturday and through the night to control the blaze got help from previous prescribed burns near Lake City, Florida officials said.

Capt. Stone is the first of four Marine officers to be charged with dereliction of duty for failing to investigate "properly" 24 civilian deaths in Haditha in November 2005. Having reviewed the facts - what you might call his politically correct job as battalion Capt. Stone lawyer determined no further investigation was warranted. In other words, he came tp a politically incorrect conclusion. (So did his superiors, but he 's the guy on trial - another story.) Capt. Stone could get three years in pri son. Three enlisted Marines are charged with unpremeditated murder. They could get life. At least eight other Marines may have been granted immunity to testify. The wbole case exudes the terrible, rotting stench of eating our own. Described in the heavybreathing press as "the biggest U.S. criminal case involving civilian deaths in the Iraq war," the incident sounds less like a war crime than, well, a war. Here's what happened: A convoy of Marines trolling insurgent:riddled Haditha was hit l;>y a huge lED. A Hum vee was destroyed. One Marine was ki lied .(split in two). Two other Marines were wounded (one grievously). There was a lot of shootin g at an approaching Iraqi car. There was a lot of shooting at two n_earby Iraqi houses where Marines heard . as The New York Times put it, "the distinct metallic sound of an AK-47 being prepared to fite. " As one Marine witness explained, "the ~quad leader thought he was about to kick in the door and walk into a machine gun." In the end, no additional Marines had died. but 24 Iraqi civi lians, including some children, had been killed. And here .lies a hunk of the politically correct outrage fueling prosecutorial fires. According to a leaked ceport chiding Marines for . not investigating further, Army Maj. Gen. Eldon A. · Bargewell was apparently appalled by "statements made by the chain of eommand" that "suggest that Iraqi civilian lives are not as important as U.S. lives, their deaths are just the cost of doing business... :" Maj. Gen. Bargewell was also apparently exercised by the Marine conse nsus that "civilian casualties were to be expected" due to such insurgent tactics as hiding among civilians. "Although this proposition may accu· rately reflect insurgent tactics," he wrote, he heard it so often "that it almost appeared rehearsed." Rehearsed? Notice the contorted way · military brass disparages the exculpatory reality of the Iraqi hattlefield. Meanwhile, three cheers for the Marines. If only someone would mention fo the Waughian-named Maj. Bargewell that when the ''business" is war. the chain of command darn well better co nsider "U.S. lives" more important than "Iraqi civilian lives" (many "civilian" in name only), or guess what? Too many U.S. lives will be lost and the United States won 't win. Victory, however, isn't the objective of our increasingly PC military. Thi s is becoming more and more apparent as the wat:' continues. Which calls into question our very capacity -;not military, but psychological - to wage war. It also calls inio question our continuity with our forbears Capt. Stone's grandfathers, for instance .

Bush commemorates America's birthplace Bv BEN FELLER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER JAMESTOWN - Fond of promoting the endurance of freedom, President Bush on Sunday hailed the nation's humble beginnings as a reminder that new democracies require huge sacritice. · "From our own history, we know the path to democracy is long and it's hard," Bush said in a ceremony honoring the 400th anniverJamestown, sary . of America's first permanent English colony. "There are many challenges, and there are setbacks along the way," Bush said. "Yet we can have confidence in the outcome because we've seen freedom's power to transform societies." On his first visit to Jamestown as pre'sident. Bush soaked in the scene like a tourist - tirst watching a dig for artifacts, then climbing aboard a replica of a majestic ship. He even grabbed a batbn and playfully led the 400piece orchestra before headmg back home. In his speech, Bush said the United States must stand with those struggling to gain their freedom. He spoke from the place where the country's roots began centuries ago in a swampland. "Today, Democratic institutions are taking root in ·places in places where li.berty was unimaginable not long ago ," the president said. He specifically cited Iraq and Afghanistan. "The advance of freedom is the great story of our time, and new chapters are being written every day," he added. Jamestown in 1607 was a grueling commercial venture, and colonists d_ealt with hunger, violence and hopelessness. But, over Sidewalk from PageA1 Boulevard and Elm Street. Phase one was initially estimated by ODOT engineers to cost $175,000 of which Racine was required to come up with a 20 percent match, which it did, ' and in a hurry according to Clerk Treasurer .Dave Spencer '¥ho said ODOT was insistant on gefting the village's match money "the next day." Spencer said the village had to pay $22,500 up front and it promptly took out a loan and transferred the money to get the project started to 'meet deadline. However, when the bid come in, the price on phase one dropped to $54,000 which entitled the village to a refund, a refund it still hasn' t receive though ' the project was deemed "completed" by ODOT in February. according to Spencer. . That refund will not be as substantial as tirst believed because council wanted a railing>i nstalled along a sec• ,. time, it became a starting point of representative government, free enterprise and cultural diversity. "It is a chance to renew our commitment to help others around the world realize the great blessings of liberty," Bush told several thousand of people in the audience for the celebration. Earlier, Bush and first lady Laura Bush walked the grounds at a leisurely place. On a day that turned from gray to sunny, they began with a walking tour of Historic Jamestowne, where archeologists continue to unearth storied remains. The structure of the settlers' original triangular fort long thought to have been washed way - has been recovered. Bush marveled at a new find - a hilt basket, which is a hand guard .that goes around a sword's handle. The item was discovered the day Queen Elizabeth II visited Jamestown recently and excavated on Sunday, said Mike Litterst, a spokesman for the National Park Service. Bush then strolled through Jamestown Settlement, where early 17th century living is reenacted. The settlement features replicas of the three ships that sailed from England tQ Virginia, along with recreations of the colonists' fort · and an Powhatan Indian village. The president looked at weapons and tools of the time, and willched as the sails of the replica ship he had earlier boarded, the Susan Constant, were unfurled. Thep came four ceremonial cani10n blasts - so loud they made the president shudder. Bush's speech came on the final day of the anniversar~ weekend, the centerpiece of an elaborate ISmonth commemoration in the works for a decade. www.mydallysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page~ AI-Qaida group says it has 3 U.S. troops missing after deadly attack in Iraq that killed 5 BY RAVI NESSMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER BAGHDAD - An alQaida front group announced Sunday it had captured American soldiers in a deadly attack the day before, as thousands of U.S. troops· searched insurgent areas south of Baghdad for their three missi ng comrades. The statement came on one of the dead I iest days in the country in recent weelis, with at least 126 people killed or found dead including two American soldiers who died in sepa. rate bombings. A suicide - truck bomb tore through the offices of a Kurdish political party in northern Iraq , killing 50 people, and a car bombing in a crowded Baghdad . market killed another 17. Troops surrounded. the town of Youssifiyah and told residents over loudspeakers to stay inside, residents said. They then methodically searched the houses, focusing on possible secret chambers under .the floors where the soldiers might be hiddeQ, residents said. The soldiers marked each searched house with a white piece of cloth. Soldiers also searched cars entering and leaving the town, writing "searched" on the side of each vehicle they had inspected. Several people were arrested, witnesses said. The Islamic State in Iraq offered no proof for its claim that it was behind the attack Saturday in Mahmoudiya that also killed four U.S. soldiers and an Iraqi translator. But the Sunni area known as the "triangle of death" is a longtime al-Qaida stronghold. If the claim proves true, it would mark one of the most brazen attacks by the umbrella Sunni insurgent group against U.S. forces here. · Maj . .l.Gen. William Caldwell, spokesman for the U.S. military, said 4,000 U.S. troops backed by aircraft and intelligence units were scouring the farming area as the military made "every effort available to find our missing soldiers." President Bush was also getting regular updates on the missi ng soldiers, said Gordon Johndroe, a spokesman for the White House's National Security Council in Washington. · The early morning attack on two U.S. military vehicles outside of Mahmoudiya; about 20 miles south of Baghdad, left the bodies of the four U.S. soldiers and their translator badly burned. Caldwell said the bodies of the interpreter and three of the 'slain soldiers had been identified, but the military was still working to identify the fifth. Later Sunday, the Islamic State of Iraq posted a brief message on a militant Web site saying it was. responsible for the attack and held an unspecified number of U.S. soldiers. The group promised more details later. The Islamic State is a coalition of eight insurgent groups. Late last month, it named a 10-member "Cabinet" complete with a "war minister," an apparent attempt to present the Sunni coalition as an alternative to the U.S. -backed, Shiite-led administration of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. U.S. military officials said they had no indication of who was behind Saturday's attack. "It's difficult to verify anything that al-Qaida in lra9 would say because they lie, ' said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, a military spokesman. However, "it would not surprise us if it were al-Qaida behind thi s, because we've seen this type of attack, this type of tactic, before" ' Insurgents also launched attacks across the country Sunday. with a suicide bomber in northern Iraq slamming a truck into local offices of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, which is headed by Mas soud B&rzani , leader of the autonomous Kurdi sh region in northern Iraq. . Cars were charred and crushed by the blast in Makhmur, a town with a substantial Kurdish populaJion just south of the autonomous Kurdi sh-controlled areas. At least 50 people were killed and 115 were wounded, · including the city's mayor, Abdul Rahman Delaf, who also is a prominent Kurdish writer. and the director of the KDP office, said Ziryan · Othman, the health minister of the Kurdish regional government. "Makhmur ls an open, peaceful area, and al-Qaida is trying to destabilize it by causing fighting between Arabs and Kurds," said Qassim Amin, who son and daughter - who both work for the party were injured. The attack was the second suicide bombing in Kurdish areas in five day s. On Wednesday, a suicide truck bomber devastated the sec urity headquarters in lrbil the capital of the Kurdish autonomous region and one of Iraq's most peaceful citieS - killing at least 15 people and wounding more than 100. The Islamic State of Iraq also claimed responsibility for that blast. · In Baghdad, meanwhile, a parked car exploded near the popular Sadriyah market in the center of the city Sunday, killing .at least 17 people and wounding 46, police said. AP Television News fo'otagc showed a crater in the ground filled With debris. -spl intered wood. metal and a tire. " I 'aw 'pools of blood and charred pieces of flesh ," said Firas Fhadil, the owner of a nearby .electrical appliances shop. Market workers used fruit carts to evacuate the.cas'ualties, because road closures made it difficult for ambulances to reach the area, he said. Sadriyah has been hit by seve·ral blasts usually blamed on Sunni insurgents, who are suspected of targeting commercial areas to kill large numbers of people and derail the Baghdad security crackdown that began 12 weeks ago. On April 18. 127 people were killed in a car bombing in the same area- one of four bombings that day that killed a 101al of 183 people. The U.S. soldiers who died Sunday were killed inbombings in Anbar ancf Salah'uddin provinces, the military said. With violence on the rise, Caldwell announced that an additional 3,000 for~es have been se nt to Diyala province, a province ·northeast of Baghdad and scene of- recent sharp fighting. Last week, the top U.S. commander in the north ,' Maj. Gen. Benjamin Mixon, said he didn't have enough troops to restore order in Diyala. On Sunday. Iraqi gunmen drove into the Diyala capital of Baqouba, pulled two handcuffed men out of the trunk and shot and killed · them, police and witnesses said. "This is the destiny of traitors," the gunmen yelled. Three other civilians also were killed executionstyle in a market in the city ce nter. police said. Hundreds of Florida wildfire evacuees still waiting to go home LAKE CITY, Fla. (AP) Authorities briefly reopened two highways crossing north Florida into Georgia on Sunday before dense wildfire smoke forced them to again halt traffic, while hundreds of Florida residents waited to return to their threatened homes:·· Officials said Sunday that the wildfire that had raced through the Okefenokee Swamp in southeast Georgia and into Florida had charred more than 233,700 acres or .about 365 square miles since it wa~tarted by lightning a week ago. Officials warned that storms in the forecast Sunday could bring either muchneeded rain or lightning. Authorities reopened 90 miles of Interstates 75 and 10 for a couple of hours Sunday morning after wind helped push the heavy smoke away from the highways. But they were later forced to close 35 miles of' I-75 . from the Florida-Georgia state line to Lake City, Fla., as well as a 40-mile stretch of 1-10 in Florida, from Live Oak to Sanderson. A IS-mile stretch of I-75 from Valdosta, Ga., to the Florida state line remained open Sunday. About 570 residents were not being allowed to return to 150 homes evacuated between I- 10 amj the Florida-Georgia state line. Firefighters working Saturday and through the night to control the blaze got help from previous prescribed burns near Lake City, Florida officials said.

ComAcrUs • TUPPERS PLAINS Big-time games call for bigtime plays from bi g-time players. Saturday in the Divi sion IV sectional final against host Eastern, Southern junior Sarah Eddy came up with the biggest - and the timeliest - of performances during a 5-1 victory at Don Jackson Field. Eddy fanned seven and allowed only three hit> over seven innings in the circle, then helped her ow n cause with a bases-loaded double in the seventh - breaking open a tightly"contested one-ail tie through six. That 3-RBI double proved to be the eventual game-winner, catapulting the Lady Torn adoes ( 10-15) to their first sectional championship since 2003 . The game in itself was like a fine wine, gening better with each pass ing moment. And like that adage , Eddy also kept improving as the game progressed. , The junior hurler didn ' t allow another hit after the second and also recorded a strikeout in every inning except the first, leaving seven EHS baserunners stranded. Eddy al so walked four and hit a batter as well, but only surrendered one earned run in the complete-ga me decision. The Lady Eag les (916) also received a fine pitching performance from Bissell junior S a s h a C o ll i n s. who retired 10 consecutive batters from the end of the t h i r d through the end of the S i X t h frames . Pape Coll ins had allowed ju st one earned run and four hits through six complete. But the pitcher's duel came 10 an end in the tophalf of the seventh, as the Purple and Gold produced four earned runs and five hit~; to take a s, J advantage. With the bottom third of the order co ming to the plate, Southern 's Chelsea Pape, Amber Hill and Rashell Boso produced back-to-back-to-back singles to load the bases with nobody out Collins ind uced Lindsey DETROIT (AP) - Scott Niedermayer scored at 14:17 of overtime to lift the Anaheim Ducks to a 4-3 victory Sunday riight over . the Detroit Red Wings . evening the Western · Conference final s at a game apiece.

ComAcrUs • TUPPERS PLAINS Big-time games call for bigtime plays from bi g-time players. Saturday in the Divi sion IV sectional final against host Eastern, Southern junior Sarah Eddy came up with the biggest - and the timeliest - of performances during a 5-1 victory at Don Jackson Field. Eddy fanned seven and allowed only three hit> over seven innings in the circle, then helped her ow n cause with a bases-loaded double in the seventh - breaking open a tightly"contested one-ail tie through six. That 3-RBI double proved to be the eventual game-winner, catapulting the Lady Torn adoes ( 10-15) to their first sectional championship since 2003 . The game in itself was like a fine wine, gening better with each pass ing moment. And like that adage , Eddy also kept improving as the game progressed. , The junior hurler didn ' t allow another hit after the second and also recorded a strikeout in every inning except the first, leaving seven EHS baserunners stranded. Eddy al so walked four and hit a batter as well, but only surrendered one earned run in the complete-ga me decision. The Lady Eag les (916) also received a fine pitching performance from Bissell junior S a s h a C o ll i n s. who retired 10 consecutive batters from the end of the t h i r d through the end of the S i X t h frames . Pape Coll ins had allowed ju st one earned run and four hits through six complete. But the pitcher's duel came 10 an end in the tophalf of the seventh, as the Purple and Gold produced four earned runs and five hit~; to take a s, J advantage.
