The Belmont is a race that Kentucky Derby winning fillies Winning Colors and Genuine Risk could not win. Rags to Riches won in 2:28.74, well off Secretariat's track record of 2:24.

HOUSTON - 1\vo astronauts .floated outside the international space station Monday to begin connecting the orbiting outpost's newest addition: a 35,000-pound segment that will increase its power capability. The start of the spacewalk was delayed b'y more than an hour because the four spinning gyroscopes that keep the space station properly . positioned became overloaded.

Virginia Tech announced last. week that it would take $3.2 million of the fund to create 32 $'1 00,000 funds to honor eac h of the victims.

Gun rights advocates have argued that mass shootings such as the one at Virginia Tech could be curbed if students were allowed to carry weapons on campus. "We are not advocating any particular solutions, but we are sure that having more guns more readily accessi, ble on college campuses is not part of it," the families said in the statement. . .

"We do not accept that patient pri vacy is (or should be) the sole overriding criterion in making records available to those charged with public safety and security of our college campuses," the families wrote. Wide Bv JUAN LOZANO ASSOCIATED PRESS WAITER . HOUSTON - 1\vo astronauts .floated outside the international space station Monday to begin connecting the orbiting outpost's newest addition: a 35,000-pound segment that will increase its power capability. The start of the spacewalk was delayed b'y more than an hour because the four spinning gyroscopes that keep the space station properly . positioned became overloaded. Space shuttle Atlantis was used to help control the station's orientation until the gyroscopes were able to take over again. This pushed back efforts by astronauts on the space station to place the new ~eg­ ment with the station's robotic arm. The new segment needed .to be securely attached before the · spacewalkers could begin making power and data connections. Astronauts James Reilly, : on his fourth spacewalk, and : Danny Olivas, on his first, · began their spacewalk at 4:02 p.m. EDT as the space station flew 208 miles over the southern Pacific Ocean. "Danny and J.R., have a : great" spacewalk, Mission : Control told the astronauts. ''Thank you. See you in a Jew ·hours," Olivas resp!Jnded. . During their scheduled 6 I12-hour spacewalk, Reilly : and Olivas also planned to remove locks and restraints on the 'truss segment, which was attached earlier Monday to the station 's girder-like backbone. · The spacewalkers will remove the restraints so solar arrays inside the segment can be deployed the next day. The new solar arrays wi ll add about 14 kilowatts of po\Ver-generating capability to the station.

That's because, I'm convinced after spending three weeks in China and Tibet, unless the United States gets its act together. our grandchildren will be living in a world domi nated by the People's Republic. China is simp.Iy inexorable in its pursuit of wealth, growth and power. It cares little about human rights, democracy, labor protections, fair trade rules or the environment. It is relentless in advancing its national interests. Tibet is a microcosm of Chinese methods . What's going on here is pure colonialism. China invaded Tibet in 1950- ostensibly to free it from Buddhist "feudalism" and treated it brutally for a quarter-century. . Hundreds of thousands of Tibetans - along with an estimated 30 million Chinese - died in Mao Zedong"s maniacal collectivization campaign, the "Great Leap Forward." In Tibet, the Chinese caused mass famine by trying to change the dominant crop from barley to rice, which does not grow in high alti tudes. Tens of thousands more Tibetans were killed when the Chinese put down a nationalistic revolt in the late I 950s, and almost all Buddhist temples were sacked and burned during the I 966-76 Cultural Revolution. .In the past 30 years, the level of violence is down, although last year Chinese border guards killed a Mortell Kordacke young Buddhist nun trying to escape the country. Rather, China is simply dominating Tibet economically and politically and the presence of huge military bases emphasizes the futility of resistance. As in the rest of China, much of what's happening here is impressive . The Chinese have built ro~ds , schools, power lines, irri· gation systems and communications in a country that still farms with plows pulled by yaks and whose rural people rarely bathe. Cell phones work .better in Tibet - even at the base camp of Mount Everestthan in Washington, D.C. China's crowning technological accomplishment here is construction of the world's highest-altitude railway line, connecting Lhasa and Beijing. The train furnishes oxygen to its passengers as it crosses a mountain pass at I 6,000 feet. The modernization, though, seems to be of, by and for the imported eth· nic Han Chinese population, wit~ the benefits merely trickling down to native Tibetans. The government claimed that in 2003 Tibet's 2.7 million people were 95 ·percent Tibetan and only 4. percent Chinese. That's clearly ridicu· · lous. Fully half of the earita[, Lhasa, and smaller cities I visited seem to be pop11iated by Chinese . Even most of the stalls at Lhasa's colorful Barkhor market are run by Chinese who often don ' t know what the Buddhist statues they sell represent. Chinese have The rebuilt many of t.he Buddhi st shrines they destroyed in the 1960s, both to promote tourism and pacify the deeply devout population But they ' ve limited the number of monks, and monasteries reportedly are heavily infiltrated by spies . Displaying pictures of the exiled Dalai Lama is illegal. I think ·it's useful for celebrity-backed Western organizations such as the Free Tibet Campaign to alert the world to Chinese abuses, but there ' s no realistic chance the Chinese are ever going to release their hold on Tibet, which is the source of three of China's major rivers, supplies it with natural resources and serves as a missile testing base. China's attitude toward the environment is epitomized here by the example of the magnificent Lake Yamdrok Tso, which will be drained to dust over the next I 0 years to supply · hydroelectric power. Chin'a as a whole reminds me of the Unite!) States in the I 9th century - minus democracy, of course. Labor protections, environmental considerations, the popular will all are secondary to economic advancement. Much as the 20th century became the American Century, the 21 st . could well be the Chinese Century. China's per capita gross domestic product sti II trails that of the United States by miles - $7,600 versus $43,000 in 2006 but, with economic growth rates averaging I 0 percent . per year, China's GOP is now the fourthlargest in the world and could catch that of ·the . United States by 2040. In one dubious respect. the output of greenhouse · gases, China is sc heduled to catch up to the United States this year. The central government claims to be trying to improve the atmosphere. but in practi ce China is following the old U S. dictum: "Pol lut io n is the smell of people making money." As the Bush administration has recently protested,. China also has weak protections for intellectual . property - which means it steals Western technology - and manipulates its currency to encourage exports and keep accumulating U.S. debt. The Pentagon just reported that "'China 's ability to sustain military power at a di stance, at present. remains limited," but it is developing systems and forces that could offset U.S. strength in the future, particularly in Asia. What to do? Clearly, to me , the United States needs to vastly upgrade its. .education system and · technology investment and resist China's unfair trade practices. China is pot an enemy, but it's definitely a rival unless and until it becomes a democracy. It's 'ar from th at now ruled by a communist hierarchy that adorns the country's currency with the image of a mass murderer, Mao. U.S . presidential candidates must say, in detail , what they'd .do· about the China challenge. (Morton Ko11dracke is executive editor of Roll Call, the newspaper of Capitol Hill.) .Bush against the wall of China While touring the Holocaust Museum in Washington on April I 6, President Bush said Sudanese President Gen. Omar Hassan al-Bashir keeps ''finding new ways to subvert and obstr-uct the U.N.'s efforts to bring peace to his country. The time for promises is over President al-Bashir must act." Also present was Elie Wiesel: "Darfur is the capital of human suffering in the world." Of the president's ultimatum to Bashir, Holocaust survivor Wiesel said: "I am a Jew who believes ·in daily miracles." The next day, instead of a miracle, the Sudanese government bombed Darfur villages for I 0 days, the United Nations reported, leveling a school. Undaunted, Bush, who says the · genocide in Darfur must stop, ordered new sanctions against Sudan on May 29, accusing al-Bashir of being "complicit in ihe bombing, murder and rape of innocent civilians." These sanctions prevent 3 I additional firms owned or controlled ·by Sudan from engaging in business with United s·rates companies and our banking system. Speaking for China to which Sudan sells 60 . percent of its · oil and 40 percent of its total exports - Liu Guijin, China's special representative in Darfur, said on the same day (Sudan Tribune) : "These. willful sanctions and simply applying pressure is not conducive to solving the problem ...·. It will only make achieving a solution more compli- Nat Hentoff cated." With China the world's chief protector. of Sudan, it is increasingly evident that a worldwide boycott of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing will be much more effective than sanctions against Sudan. But Bush keeps trying. In addition to economic sanctions, Bush pledged that we will urge the U.N . to Security Council impose an arms embargo on Sudan, and a prohibition against military flights over Darfur to end the bombing not only of the black Africans' villages, but also of meetings of rebel groups trying to end the fighting among themselves. (The latter armistice is also essential lor any chance of longrange peace in Darfur.) Bush did not detail how he will persuade China and Russia . (each on the U.N. Security Council) against vetoing these · American proposals . Since his plan does not include any sanctions against those countries, the U.N. Security Council will, as always, be useless in ending the genocide. In all the press coverage of our president's clearly sincere . but ineffective threats against Gen. aiBashir.

The board promoted Jane p latten, an employee who has served as interim director and was an assistant.duri ng the county's problematic switch to electronic voting. Platten, 39, who became interim director after the ~ormer director, Michael Vu, resigned in February, accepted the appointment at. a board meeting. She takes over a board that has been through much change and tumult over the last few years . Four new board members were installed May 7 in Cuyahoga County to replace four who were forced to resign by Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner. Brunner and others have been critical of the board for shoddy work, including absent, late or improperly trained poll workers .and a hand count of 18,000 absentee ballots that delayed the May 2006 primary results for days. "I understand what happened I think that we can fix a lot the issues that did happen and I think we've already started to do that," Platten said.

That's because, I'm convinced after spending three weeks in China and Tibet, unless the United States gets its act together. our grandchildren will be living in a world domi nated by the People's Republic. China is simp.Iy inexorable in its pursuit of wealth, growth and power. It cares little about human rights, democracy, labor protections, fair trade rules or the environment. It is relentless in advancing its national interests. Tibet is a microcosm of Chinese methods . What's going on here is pure colonialism. China invaded Tibet in 1950- ostensibly to free it from Buddhist "feudalism" and treated it brutally for a quarter-century. . Hundreds of thousands of Tibetans - along with an estimated 30 million Chinese - died in Mao Zedong"s maniacal collectivization campaign, the "Great Leap Forward." In Tibet, the Chinese caused mass famine by trying to change the dominant crop from barley to rice, which does not grow in high alti tudes. Tens of thousands more Tibetans were killed when the Chinese put down a nationalistic revolt in the late I 950s, and almost all Buddhist temples were sacked and burned during the I 966-76 Cultural Revolution. .In the past 30 years, the level of violence is down, although last year Chinese border guards killed a Mortell Kordacke young Buddhist nun trying to escape the country. Rather, China is simply dominating Tibet economically and politically and the presence of huge military bases emphasizes the futility of resistance. As in the rest of China, much of what's happening here is impressive . The Chinese have built ro~ds , schools, power lines, irri· gation systems and communications in a country that still farms with plows pulled by yaks and whose rural people rarely bathe. Cell phones work .better in Tibet - even at the base camp of Mount Everestthan in Washington, D.C. China's crowning technological accomplishment here is construction of the world's highest-altitude railway line, connecting Lhasa and Beijing. The train furnishes oxygen to its passengers as it crosses a mountain pass at I 6,000 feet. The modernization, though, seems to be of, by and for the imported eth· nic Han Chinese population, wit~ the benefits merely trickling down to native Tibetans. The government claimed that in 2003 Tibet's 2.7 million people were 95 ·percent Tibetan and only 4. percent Chinese. That's clearly ridicu· · lous. Fully half of the earita[, Lhasa, and smaller cities I visited seem to be pop11iated by Chinese . Even most of the stalls at Lhasa's colorful Barkhor market are run by Chinese who often don ' t know what the Buddhist statues they sell represent. Chinese have The rebuilt many of t.he Buddhi st shrines they destroyed in the 1960s, both to promote tourism and pacify the deeply devout population But they ' ve limited the number of monks, and monasteries reportedly are heavily infiltrated by spies . Displaying pictures of the exiled Dalai Lama is illegal. I think ·it's useful for celebrity-backed Western organizations such as the Free Tibet Campaign to alert the world to Chinese abuses, but there ' s no realistic chance the Chinese are ever going to release their hold on Tibet, which is the source of three of China's major rivers, supplies it with natural resources and serves as a missile testing base. China's attitude toward the environment is epitomized here by the example of the magnificent Lake Yamdrok Tso, which will be drained to dust over the next I 0 years to supply · hydroelectric power. Chin'a as a whole reminds me of the Unite!) States in the I 9th century - minus democracy, of course. Labor protections, environmental considerations, the popular will all are secondary to economic advancement. Much as the 20th century became the American Century, the 21 st . could well be the Chinese Century. China's per capita gross domestic product sti II trails that of the United States by miles - $7,600 versus $43,000 in 2006 but, with economic growth rates averaging I 0 percent . per year, China's GOP is now the fourthlargest in the world and could catch that of ·the . United States by 2040. In one dubious respect. the output of greenhouse · gases, China is sc heduled to catch up to the United States this year. The central government claims to be trying to improve the atmosphere. but in practi ce China is following the old U S. dictum: "Pol lut io n is the smell of people making money." As the Bush administration has recently protested,. China also has weak protections for intellectual . property - which means it steals Western technology - and manipulates its currency to encourage exports and keep accumulating U.S. debt. The Pentagon just reported that "'China 's ability to sustain military power at a di stance, at present. remains limited," but it is developing systems and forces that could offset U.S. strength in the future, particularly in Asia. What to do? Clearly, to me , the United States needs to vastly upgrade its. .education system and · technology investment and resist China's unfair trade practices. China is pot an enemy, but it's definitely a rival unless and until it becomes a democracy. It's 'ar from th at now ruled by a communist hierarchy that adorns the country's currency with the image of a mass murderer, Mao. U.S . presidential candidates must say, in detail , what they'd .do· about the China challenge. (Morton Ko11dracke is executive editor of Roll Call, the newspaper of Capitol Hill.) .Bush against the wall of China While touring the Holocaust Museum in Washington on April I 6, President Bush said Sudanese President Gen. Omar Hassan al-Bashir keeps ''finding new ways to subvert and obstr-uct the U.N.'s efforts to bring peace to his country. The time for promises is over President al-Bashir must act." Also present was Elie Wiesel: "Darfur is the capital of human suffering in the world." Of the president's ultimatum to Bashir, Holocaust survivor Wiesel said: "I am a Jew who believes ·in daily miracles." The next day, instead of a miracle, the Sudanese government bombed Darfur villages for I 0 days, the United Nations reported, leveling a school. Undaunted, Bush, who says the · genocide in Darfur must stop, ordered new sanctions against Sudan on May 29, accusing al-Bashir of being "complicit in ihe bombing, murder and rape of innocent civilians." These sanctions prevent 3 I additional firms owned or controlled ·by Sudan from engaging in business with United s·rates companies and our banking system. Speaking for China to which Sudan sells 60 . percent of its · oil and 40 percent of its total exports - Liu Guijin, China's special representative in Darfur, said on the same day (Sudan Tribune) : "These. willful sanctions and simply applying pressure is not conducive to solving the problem ...·. It will only make achieving a solution more compli- Nat Hentoff cated." With China the world's chief protector. of Sudan, it is increasingly evident that a worldwide boycott of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing will be much more effective than sanctions against Sudan. But Bush keeps trying. In addition to economic sanctions, Bush pledged that we will urge the U.N . to Security Council impose an arms embargo on Sudan, and a prohibition against military flights over Darfur to end the bombing not only of the black Africans' villages, but also of meetings of rebel groups trying to end the fighting among themselves. (The latter armistice is also essential lor any chance of longrange peace in Darfur.) Bush did not detail how he will persuade China and Russia . (each on the U.N. Security Council) against vetoing these · American proposals . Since his plan does not include any sanctions against those countries, the U.N. Security Council will, as always, be useless in ending the genocide. In all the press coverage of our president's clearly sincere . but ineffective threats against Gen. aiBashir.

American Centrifuge .Plant is near . BY TERRY KINNEY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER PIKETON - In a building far from public view in the tree-covered hills of · .southern Ohio. the company that recycles uranium from Russian warheads for fueling U.S . nuclear power plants is preparing to demonstrate an advance from Cold War technology. USEC Inc., based in Bethesda, Md., is developing the American Centrifuge Plant in southern Ohio to enrich uranium for nuclear power plants. The company, which last month began interior construction on the plant some 65 miles south of Columbus, is nearly ready to show the centrifuge process at a demonstration facility. The process uses centrifugal force to enrich uranium. The company says centrifuge is much more effi. cient .than the 1950s-developed gaseous diffusion, with the new plant e~pected to use about 5 percent of the electricity needed . for gaseous diffusion. USEC runs a gaseous diffusion plant in Paducah, Ky., the only uranium enrichment plant in the United States.

Governor, lawmakers at odds over health coverage for the well-off BY JULIE CARR SMYTH AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT I ' COLUMBUS Dan Dodds readily admits he is not poor. But Dodd> believes hi> I0-year-old son's . struggle with leukemia provides a compellingcase for letting 'families like his buy into statefunded health insurance. When Jacob was 18 months old, he was diagnosed with a rare form of the cancer. Over the ensuing two years, the medical treatments that eventually cured . Jacob cost well over $1 million. No private .insurer wants to take that sort of monetary risk on Jacob today, so his parents can't buy a policy for him that would cover even the most" basic playground accidf!nt. "I'm here to let people know there are hardworking families that do pay· their ·bills and pay their taxes that, through no fault of their own have a child with a preexisting condition who is left out of the system," said Dodds, who owns a home consiruction business in Anna in western Ohio. His wife Jayina, director of a church day care program, and their two other sons are covered under a private health care policy. Which families should be allowed the option to buy· into Medicaid for their uninsured children - or for themselves - is one of the stickiest issues facing lawmakers in this year's budget. Gov. Ted Strickland, a Democrai who tQOk office in Jaimary, proposed a budget that pushed to cover virtually every uninsured child in the state. Republicans who control the Legislature balked at the extent of Strickland's proposed expansion; preferring to push some of the state tax dc;>llars to other priori)ies such as more affordable college tuitions. The House's version of the budget would expand the .State Children's Health Insurance Program from double to triple the poverty level - but declined to go as far as the governor proposed. The House-backed expansion would cover children from families of four making up to $61 ,950 a year, while. Strickland wanted to see eligibility stretched to five times the poverty level, at which families of four . make $103:250. "We jusJ don't think the Medicaid program was established for the purpose of covering people at that income level ," said Karen Tabor, spokeswoman for House Speaker Jon Husted. Dodds, whose family makes between the income thresholds proposed by the House and by Strickland, said he is willing to pay a premium for the ability to cover his son through Medicaid. "I'm looking for the state to provide assistance in making it affordable," he said. "I'm not looking for a free ride." As a compromise, the Senate has proposed creating a panel that would · review cases like the Dodds' and decide whether those families should be able to buy into Medicaid or qualify for state help to .pay premiums to private providers. Senate spo keswoman I Maggie Ostrowski said the council would help families such as the Dodds that face extreme circumstances without opening up the state's already overburdened Medicaid rolls to thousands of new enrollees. "We're saying that we see a need." she said. The House and the Senate now must work out a compromise on their differing proposals. Already under the Houseapproved budget, which is likely to be approved in the Senate's final budget. state Medicaid will be available to an additi[mal 30,000 children from families with lower inwmes, Tabor said. • 81 ' I 55' Mansfield • 80' I 56' Dayton• ~ I 55' L.::.:) ~ *Columbus 8~155° SPORTS BRIEFS I ,; .,r'r Youngstown • eo' 1 55' • Middleport Little League Tourney set for July 7 r' t_:_:) ~ ~ Cincinnati • 64' I 56o ~ Portly Cloudy Cloudy • b ''''' · Showers ~~r· ~ Fl~rr1es ~ ~ ~~ ~ Rain ~ "•" Snow •Ice ~ ::::: Weather Undergrtlllnd • MJ Thesday...

Once the fourth quarter rolls around, the Cleveland Cavaliers begin playing NBA tlnals-worthy basketball. If their goal is to make the game close on the scoreboard, that might be good enough. If they want to be competitive on the court, they'd better get started much sooner. "We have to find a way to pick up our intensity and carry on what happened in the fourth quarter into the rest of the game," Cavaliers star LeBron James said. The Cavaliers traveled home Monday and were .set to host an NBA finals game for the .first time Tuesday night. They left San Antonio with a 2-0 deficit, but maybe with a bit of momentum after thoroughly outplaying the Spurs in the final quarter of Game 2. Cleveland outscored San Antonio 30-14, brietly cutting what had been a 29point deticit inio single digits.

BY TERRY KINNEY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER PIKETON - In a building far from public view in the tree-covered hills of · .southern Ohio. the company that recycles uranium from Russian warheads for fueling U.S . nuclear power plants is preparing to demonstrate an advance from Cold War technology. USEC Inc., based in Bethesda, Md., is developing the American Centrifuge Plant in southern Ohio to enrich uranium for nuclear power plants. The company, which last month began interior construction on the plant some 65 miles south of Columbus, is nearly ready to show the centrifuge process at a demonstration facility. The process uses centrifugal force to enrich uranium. The company says centrifuge is much more effi. cient .than the 1950s-developed gaseous diffusion, with the new plant e~pected to use about 5 percent of the electricity needed . for gaseous diffusion. USEC runs a gaseous diffusion plant in Paducah, Ky., the only uranium enrichment plant in the United States.

Governor, lawmakers at odds over health coverage for the well-off BY JULIE CARR SMYTH AP STATEHOUSE CORRESPONDENT I ' COLUMBUS Dan Dodds readily admits he is not poor. But Dodd> believes hi> I0-year-old son's . struggle with leukemia provides a compellingcase for letting 'families like his buy into statefunded health insurance. When Jacob was 18 months old, he was diagnosed with a rare form of the cancer. Over the ensuing two years, the medical treatments that eventually cured . Jacob cost well over $1 million. No private .insurer wants to take that sort of monetary risk on Jacob today, so his parents can't buy a policy for him that would cover even the most" basic playground accidf!nt. "I'm here to let people know there are hardworking families that do pay· their ·bills and pay their taxes that, through no fault of their own have a child with a preexisting condition who is left out of the system," said Dodds, who owns a home consiruction business in Anna in western Ohio. His wife Jayina, director of a church day care program, and their two other sons are covered under a private health care policy. Which families should be allowed the option to buy· into Medicaid for their uninsured children - or for themselves - is one of the stickiest issues facing lawmakers in this year's budget. Gov. Ted Strickland, a Democrai who tQOk office in Jaimary, proposed a budget that pushed to cover virtually every uninsured child in the state. Republicans who control the Legislature balked at the extent of Strickland's proposed expansion; preferring to push some of the state tax dc;>llars to other priori)ies such as more affordable college tuitions. The House's version of the budget would expand the .State Children's Health Insurance Program from double to triple the poverty level - but declined to go as far as the governor proposed. The House-backed expansion would cover children from families of four making up to $61 ,950 a year, while. Strickland wanted to see eligibility stretched to five times the poverty level, at which families of four . make $103:250. "We jusJ don't think the Medicaid program was established for the purpose of covering people at that income level ," said Karen Tabor, spokeswoman for House Speaker Jon Husted. Dodds, whose family makes between the income thresholds proposed by the House and by Strickland, said he is willing to pay a premium for the ability to cover his son through Medicaid. "I'm looking for the state to provide assistance in making it affordable," he said. "I'm not looking for a free ride." As a compromise, the Senate has proposed creating a panel that would · review cases like the Dodds' and decide whether those families should be able to buy into Medicaid or qualify for state help to .pay premiums to private providers. Senate spo keswoman I Maggie Ostrowski said the council would help families such as the Dodds that face extreme circumstances without opening up the state's already overburdened Medicaid rolls to thousands of new enrollees. "We're saying that we see a need." she said. The House and the Senate now must work out a compromise on their differing proposals. Already under the Houseapproved budget, which is likely to be approved in the Senate's final budget. state Medicaid will be available to an additi[mal 30,000 children from families with lower inwmes, Tabor said. • 81 ' I 55' Mansfield • 80' I 56' Dayton• ~ I 55' L.::.:) ~ *Columbus 8~155° SPORTS BRIEFS I ,; .,r'r Youngstown • eo' 1 55' • Middleport Little League Tourney set for July 7 r' t_:_:) ~ ~ Cincinnati • 64' I 56o ~ Portly Cloudy Cloudy • b ''''' · Showers ~~r· ~ Fl~rr1es ~ ~ ~~ ~ Rain ~ "•" Snow •Ice ~ ::::: Weather Undergrtlllnd • MJ Thesday...

Once the fourth quarter rolls around, the Cleveland Cavaliers begin playing NBA tlnals-worthy basketball. If their goal is to make the game close on the scoreboard, that might be good enough. If they want to be competitive on the court, they'd better get started much sooner. "We have to find a way to pick up our intensity and carry on what happened in the fourth quarter into the rest of the game," Cavaliers star LeBron James said. The Cavaliers traveled home Monday and were .set to host an NBA finals game for the .first time Tuesday night. They left San Antonio with a 2-0 deficit, but maybe with a bit of momentum after thoroughly outplaying the Spurs in the final quarter of Game 2. Cleveland outscored San Antonio 30-14, brietly cutting what had been a 29point deticit inio single digits.

But there have been few complamts They say It IS tough but fatr, but they have yet to put penc1l to scorecard "It 1s suflmg d1fficult, to the pmnt of walkmg off and feeling hke you've got 12 rounds w1th All ," Paul Goydos sa1d. He t1ed for 44th 111 1994, the last time the U.S Open was held at Oakmont, and 1t 1s one of his favorite US. Open courses. Beyond the famous Church Pew bunkers and fnghtenm~ fast greens, what mtngues Goydos is the membership, specifiCally why anyone would want to belong to a club, that beats you to a pulp "They have an interesting mentahty," he sa1d. "I think they're all insane. These people must like losing balls and shooting I 00 " But one way Gaydos measures what ts a great golf course 1s how many Urnes 1t has held the U S Open, and he attnbutes Oakmont's spot in the rotation to a membershtp that loves seemg how the best players 111 the world can handle the1r course. "The members here relish the opportumty," he sa1d. "They can't wa1t to have you here You can feel how exc1ted they are in the clubhouse. They're like a bunch of peacocks showmg off thw feathers " Kevin Sutherland was amazed at the rough, and not because It was a U.S. Open. The USGA agam is using a graduated rough, which gets longer the farther a player IS from the fairway. It was th1ck and nasty, and he expects that at a U.S. Open. What got h1s attention was realizmg the bunkers detennined the rough line, meamng the fauways were JUSt as narrow for the members dunng a sununer fourball than it is for the U.S Open. "Unless the bunkers are from Page 81 late." By the ttme the fourth quarter arnved, the trio of Tony Parker, T1m Duncan and Manu Gmobll1 had outscored Cleveland 68-62 In Game I, the Cavs trailed 64-49 through three quarters, with the Spur5' Big Three matchmg the Cavs' total at that pOint. James has sa1d throughout these playoffs that tf hts teammates keep 1t close, he'll try to wm1t for them m the end But w1th the defic1ts the Cavs have been facing, that's too much for James or anybody else to accomplish. By then, Cleveland 1s playmg JUSt to avotd further embarrassment "I thmk the fourth quarter we JUSt realize that It's a pnde thmg then and we don't want to get blown out,'' James sa1d "We're here for a reason and 11 becomes a pnde thmg in the fourth quarter when you're Open from PageBl row fairways and htgh rough. But he has been to Oakmont tWICe 10 the last few years to play a corporate outms., and the greens were unhke any he has played. "I had two four-putts and three three.putts, and I putted pretty good that day," said Taylor, one of the best on the PGA Tour. 'The greens are slower now than they usually are." Monday was the frrst day of practice for the U.S. Open, the first chance for many to see what the fuss 1s all about. Along with some of the fastest greens anywhere, the rough is as punIShing as ever _ so punishmg Phil Mickelson attributes h1s left wr~t injury to chippmg countless times • from PageBl d1 sappomtmg showmg thus far by the Eastern Conference's top team "We've got to play harder than we're playmg nght now," Brown sa1d. "There's nothing magical that's going to help us No mag1c play, no mag1c defense. We've got to bring the JUice, and right now we're not." Instead of flying back immedtately after the game, the Cavs recharged in San Antomo overmght, hop111g the added rest w1ll g1ve them fresh legs for Game 3. The Spurs opted to stay home ahd awoke m the1r own beds Monday mornmg before flymg to Ohw Though new to the finals, the Cavaliers are m a familIar place. down 0-2 10 a playoff series. They lost the first two games to Detroit 111 the conference finals before wmnmg four 111 a row over the Pistons. The difference th1s lime, howeve(, is that the Spurs are supenor to the P1stons and while the Cavs could have easily won both games m Detroit _ they lost by three each lime _ they had httle chance m San Antomo The comforts of home wtll help, but nothing's guaranteed. "We cannot rely on , because we're gomg home, that our games are g01ng to 1mprove and our shots are gomg to fall,'' center Zydrunas llgauskas sa1d "Yeah, we're gomg to have our crowd and the energy and stuff. But we have to make some adjustments They're JUSt playmg harder than us _ stmple as that " The Cavs have a been a different team at home, where the baskets seem wider, the nms softer and the crowds have been crazed. Cleveland went 3011 at "The Q" uunng the regular season and are 7-I at home m the playoffs. Still, the Spurs are good enough to overcome any team and 20,000 towelwavmg enemies. "We've been a good home team all season long,' Ilgauska s smd "But 1f we're gomg to th10k that way, before we know 1t 1t's going to be 0-3, and then It's over We have to bnng the energy nght at the begmnmg " Especially James As he prom1sed, Cleveland's 22-year-old AllStar was m attack mode at the outset of Game 2, but two quick fouls forced him to the bench and doomed the Cavs, who were still w1thm 16-13 Without James on the floor when the Spurs npped off 12 consecutive pOints to close the first quarter Only three teams have overcome an 0-2 deficit m the fmals to wm the title, but one of them was the 2006 Miami Heat, who looked as bad as Cleveland d1d m Games I and 2 at Dallas before wmnmg four stra1ght Last year, the Heat JUmped on the shoulders of their star, James' good buddy, Dwyane Wade, in Games 3,' 4 and 5, and stunned the Mavericks. As James showed agamst the P1stons, he's capable of a Similar one-man spectacle. Before Game 3 of the Detroit senes 111 Cleveland, James showed up at h1s home arena three hours eady to w01 k on his game, somethmg he hadn't done all year "It's the btggest game of my life," he declared before sconng 32 pomts with mne rebounds and mne asststs to rev1ve h1s team The Cavaliers barely have a pulse now, and 1t's up to James to get them beatmg agam "I've been 111 th1 s situatiOn before," he satd wh1le walkmg to the team bus late Sunday mght "It's gomg to be tough , but we can still do It " . supposed to be m the fairway," he sa~d, shakmg h1s head Th1s ts what led Padra~g Harnngton of Ireland to suggest that the USGA take the week off He figure s there's not much for 1ts staff to do th1s week tf it wants to protect par Oakmont already does that "What this golf course does is g1ve the USGA more control over sconng," he said. "You could turn up here when t)lere's not a tournament and play a tournament By 1ts nature, tt' ~ already difficult. It's a strug' gle. They don't have to put the pm 2 feet over a tier They could put the pin 2 yards over a uer. It's tough enough" It certamly looked that way on a warm, breezy sunny afternoon Craig Kanada opted to hll a hybrid off the 313-yard 17th hole, where the big hitters often opt tor dnver H1s first shot was gobbled up by the rough on the left s1de. H1s second shot took one hop anu disappeared mto the high grass He finally got 1t nght on the thtrd try. Jeff Brehaut, playmg m hts fust maJor champtonsh•p, walked off the 18th green and handed golf balls to the two volunteers who walked around w1th him and U.S. Senior Open champwn Allen Doyle. When asked whether he had enough balls left to give away, Brehaut smtled "I lost a few of them out there," he said. Taylor grew up and sull hves in Augusta, Ga , but he was asked whether Oakmont was a club he would like to JOIIl 1f he lived here. "I don't know 1f I could play here every day," Taylor sa1d "Th1s course just beats you up." j The Daily Sentinel • Page 83 - Sentinel - l\e CLAS.SIFIED Gallia County, OH class 1hed@=ytnbunecom In One Week With Us REACH OVER 285,000 PROSPECTS PLUS YOUR AD NOW ONLINE ' WebSIIes· www.myda1lytnbune.com www.myda1lysent1nel com www myda1lyreg1ster com l\egister To Place m:rtbune Sentinel Your Ad, (740) 446-2342 (740) 992-2156 (304) 675-1333 Call TOday... or Fax To (740) 446-3008 or Fax To (740) 992·2157 Word Ads Monday thru Friday 8:00a.m. to 5:00 p.m. HOW IQ WRITE AN AD *POLICIES* Ohio Valley Publishing reserves lhe rightlo edll, reject or cancel any ad at any time.

So IS the lack of competitiveness m the NBA finals a s1mple matter of East vs West? The Cleveland Cavallecs stonned back from a 2-0 deficit m the Eastern Conference finals to knock off top-seeded Detroit m s1x games The Cavs are nght back m the same hole after two games th1s ume. but th1s time agrunst an opponent that seems a whole lot tougher than the Pistons were. The Cavs thmk there's more to n than that "Peo,rle talk about East and West and It s ne1ther here nor there,' Cavaliers coach Mike Brown smd "I thmk the East has won two of the last three (titles) or somethmg like that. It really doesn't matter San Antomo 1s a great team. too, and we just have to figure out that we've got to play harder than what we've been playmg nght now " The Pistons were the East's best m the regular season, but that wasn't saymll much m a weak conference Detroit won only 53 games, a total that would have rrulked only fourth m the West - five games behind San Antomo The Cavs know some people have disnussed them as true title contenders because the East presented them w1th such an easy path to the finals The1r first two playoff oppo- nents, seventh-seeded Washmgton and No 6 New Jersey, both were only 41-41 dunng the regular season Meanwh1le, San Antonio had to ~o through Phoenix, a 61-wm team, JUSt to get out of the second round. St1ll. the Cavs won't say the reason for the1r struggles IS s1mply that the Spurs are bette~ than the Pistons "I thmk 1t's JUSt an upgrade from senes to senes, from the tirst round to the second round, conference finals, and then to tinals It's an upgrade," LeBron James smd ''It doesn't matter who II IS, the mtenslty level automatically p•cks up.

They haven 't, however, forgotten 2005. That's when they led the DetrOit P1stons 2-0 and looked well on their way to the t1tle but wound up needmg seven games to wm. "We need to remember that and learn from our mistakes," satd Tony Parker, who led the Spurs w1th 30 po111ts m the1r 103-92 Game 2 wm Sunday "I think that's enough to make us get ready" In 2005, the Spurs won Games I and 2 at home with scores of 84-69 and/97-76. Then they went to Detroit. The P1stons beat the Spurs 96-79 m Game 3 then blew them out 102-71 in Game 4. The Spurs took Games 5 and 7 to wm the crown "Hopefully, especially the guys that were in that fmals, learn fr<>m that and we are more humble gmng into those games and play a better game," sa1d Manu G111ob1h, who called the 2005 turn of events "really embarrassmg " Th1s t1me, the Spurs w1ll head to Cleveland, where the entire c1ty will be abuzz w1th the poss1bility that LeBron James can deliver. It's the first ume 10 the Cavs' 37-year history they 've gone to the finals "It'll be a huge challenge,'' Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "They've played well there, and I think they' II feel a lot looser, a lot more aggress1ve in a lot of ways." Cleveland was down 0-2 in the Eastern Conference finals this year against Detroit before wmmng the next four games and a tnp to the finals "They played good agamst Detroit and they came back, so we have to be aware of that," Parker said. Compete down so many pomts." The Cavs are averagmg 28 5 p01nts and shoot10g 57.5 percent in the fourth quarters of the finals Those are impressive numbers against any team, especially one that defends as well as the Spurs. But as well as they've played in the fourth, the closest the Cavs have been 10 that period was e1ght pomts - still a long way from mak10g a v1ctory seem pos&Jble Sull, they kept competing, wh1ch was perhaps the best thmg that could be smd for theu tune m San Antomo "They d1dn 't quit 10 Game I, they d1dn 't qUite tomght," Cavs coach Mtke Brown smd "We're not m 11 for any moral v1ctones Bottom line is we lost the ballgame. But the thmg I'm excited about 1s we finally brought some sort of effort and aggress1on defenSIVely and offensively, and we d1d 11 and showed some p01se And that's what we have to continue trying to do throughout th1s series "But our guys, you know, they didn't look down gomg mto the fourth quarter" Brown went nearly the entire quarter with a lineup of James and four reserves Anderson Varejao, Damel G1bson, Damon Jones and Donyell Marshall. The latter three g1ve the Cavs the outs1de shooting they need to spread the floor so James has room to operate, and Varejao provides the hustle plays and reboundmg that Cleveland lacked for three quarters Plus, he helped llm1t Duncan to 1-of-5 shootmg 111 the period. So perhaps Brown found a combmatlon thai can work But 1t won't matter unless the Cavs tmd a way to keep it close enough so that unit can make a difference The Spurs are already good Spottmg them a huge lead makes them nearly unbeatable "When you get down m the fmals agamst a team l1ke thts, 30 pomts, you're not commg back,'' llgauskas said lead 111 finals history _ and by the end of the third It was: Btg 3 68, Cavaliers 62. Pride kicked in and Cleveland frantically rallied m the foujth, trinuning a 29-pomt deficit to e1ght m the final mmutes before the Spurs stopped g•gghng, made a few more clutch plays, and finally put the Cavs away. "It was irresponsible from us,'' Ginobili sa~d of the Spurs' near collapse. "We've got to learn from that and we've got to finish games." The Spurs are mindful Cleveland can come back. They've seen 1t before, In the 2005 finals, San Antomo destroyed Detroit in the first two games, winmng by a combmed 46 points, but when the senes sh1fted to Auburn H1lls, M1ch., the Pistons won by 17 pomts in Game 3 and 31 m Game4. They remember more than the Alamo m San Antomo. While the Spurs are concerned about finishmg games, starting them has been Cleveland's problem. Despite havmg three days to prepare, the Cavs came out flatter than a tortilla m the first half for the second stra1ght game. They failed to match the Spurs' mtenslty and were continually outhustled to loose balls, soinethmg they've routmely done to opponents They also made mental errors early on and costly turnovers, mistakes the experienced Spurs made them pay for each lime. There was a lack of champwnshlp-cahber effort, and followmg the loss, coach M1ke Brown and several of Cleveland's players candidly assessed what has been a out of the rough dunng h1s marathon pract1ce rounds two weeks ago Mtckelson had h1s wnst t1ghtly wrapped Monday and d1d not play a practice round He only hit halfshots from the grass on the range, placing his ball on a tee to h1t a m1ddle 1ron, graduatmg to a hybnd that made short-game coach Dave Pelz wince w1th nervo~ness, and he hll only one shot with h1s driver before going back to 30yard chips. He plans to play hts first round since he w1thdrew after II holes at the Memorial. Tiger Woods started on the back nine and played 18 holes and offered th1s prognOSIS: "I broke (00." But there have been few complamts They say It IS tough but fatr, but they have yet to put penc1l to scorecard "It 1s suflmg d1fficult, to the pmnt of walkmg off and feeling hke you've got 12 rounds w1th All ," Paul Goydos sa1d. He t1ed for 44th 111 1994, the last time the U.S Open was held at Oakmont, and 1t 1s one of his favorite US. Open courses. Beyond the famous Church Pew bunkers and fnghtenm~ fast greens, what mtngues Goydos is the membership, specifiCally why anyone would want to belong to a club, that beats you to a pulp "They have an interesting mentahty," he sa1d. "I think they're all insane. These people must like losing balls and shooting I 00 " But one way Gaydos measures what ts a great golf course 1s how many Urnes 1t has held the U S Open, and he attnbutes Oakmont's spot in the rotation to a membershtp that loves seemg how the best players 111 the world can handle the1r course. "The members here relish the opportumty," he sa1d. "They can't wa1t to have you here You can feel how exc1ted they are in the clubhouse. They're like a bunch of peacocks showmg off thw feathers " Kevin Sutherland was amazed at the rough, and not because It was a U.S. Open. The USGA agam is using a graduated rough, which gets longer the farther a player IS from the fairway. It was th1ck and nasty, and he expects that at a U.S. Open. What got h1s attention was realizmg the bunkers detennined the rough line, meamng the fauways were JUSt as narrow for the members dunng a sununer fourball than it is for the U.S Open. "Unless the bunkers are from Page 81 late." By the ttme the fourth quarter arnved, the trio of Tony Parker, T1m Duncan and Manu Gmobll1 had outscored Cleveland 68-62 In Game I, the Cavs trailed 64-49 through three quarters, with the Spur5' Big Three matchmg the Cavs' total at that pOint. James has sa1d throughout these playoffs that tf hts teammates keep 1t close, he'll try to wm1t for them m the end But w1th the defic1ts the Cavs have been facing, that's too much for James or anybody else to accomplish. By then, Cleveland 1s playmg JUSt to avotd further embarrassment "I thmk the fourth quarter we JUSt realize that It's a pnde thmg then and we don't want to get blown out,'' James sa1d "We're here for a reason and 11 becomes a pnde thmg in the fourth quarter when you're Open from PageBl row fairways and htgh rough.

"I had two four-putts and three three.putts, and I putted pretty good that day," said Taylor, one of the best on the PGA Tour. 'The greens are slower now than they usually are." Monday was the frrst day of practice for the U.S. Open, the first chance for many to see what the fuss 1s all about. Along with some of the fastest greens anywhere, the rough is as punIShing as ever _ so punishmg Phil Mickelson attributes h1s left wr~t injury to chippmg countless times • from PageBl d1 sappomtmg showmg thus far by the Eastern Conference's top team "We've got to play harder than we're playmg nght now," Brown sa1d. "There's nothing magical that's going to help us No mag1c play, no mag1c defense. We've got to bring the JUice, and right now we're not." Instead of flying back immedtately after the game, the Cavs recharged in San Antomo overmght, hop111g the added rest w1ll g1ve them fresh legs for Game 3. The Spurs opted to stay home ahd awoke m the1r own beds Monday mornmg before flymg to Ohw Though new to the finals, the Cavaliers are m a familIar place. down 0-2 10 a playoff series. They lost the first two games to Detroit 111 the conference finals before wmnmg four 111 a row over the Pistons. The difference th1s lime, howeve(, is that the Spurs are supenor to the P1stons and while the Cavs could have easily won both games m Detroit _ they lost by three each lime _ they had httle chance m San Antomo The comforts of home wtll help, but nothing's guaranteed. "We cannot rely on , because we're gomg home, that our games are g01ng to 1mprove and our shots are gomg to fall,'' center Zydrunas llgauskas sa1d "Yeah, we're gomg to have our crowd and the energy and stuff. But we have to make some adjustments They're JUSt playmg harder than us _ stmple as that " The Cavs have a been a different team at home, where the baskets seem wider, the nms softer and the crowds have been crazed. Cleveland went 3011 at "The Q" uunng the regular season and are 7-I at home m the playoffs. Still, the Spurs are good enough to overcome any team and 20,000 towelwavmg enemies. "We've been a good home team all season long,' Ilgauska s smd "But 1f we're gomg to th10k that way, before we know 1t 1t's going to be 0-3, and then It's over We have to bnng the energy nght at the begmnmg " Especially James As he prom1sed, Cleveland's 22-year-old AllStar was m attack mode at the outset of Game 2, but two quick fouls forced him to the bench and doomed the Cavs, who were still w1thm 16-13 Without James on the floor when the Spurs npped off 12 consecutive pOints to close the first quarter Only three teams have overcome an 0-2 deficit m the fmals to wm the title, but one of them was the 2006 Miami Heat, who looked as bad as Cleveland d1d m Games I and 2 at Dallas before wmnmg four stra1ght Last year, the Heat JUmped on the shoulders of their star, James' good buddy, Dwyane Wade, in Games 3,' 4 and 5, and stunned the Mavericks. As James showed agamst the P1stons, he's capable of a Similar one-man spectacle. Before Game 3 of the Detroit senes 111 Cleveland, James showed up at h1s home arena three hours eady to w01 k on his game, somethmg he hadn't done all year "It's the btggest game of my life," he declared before sconng 32 pomts with mne rebounds and mne asststs to rev1ve h1s team The Cavaliers barely have a pulse now, and 1t's up to James to get them beatmg agam "I've been 111 th1 s situatiOn before," he satd wh1le walkmg to the team bus late Sunday mght "It's gomg to be tough , but we can still do It " . supposed to be m the fairway," he sa~d, shakmg h1s head Th1s ts what led Padra~g Harnngton of Ireland to suggest that the USGA take the week off He figure s there's not much for 1ts staff to do th1s week tf it wants to protect par Oakmont already does that "What this golf course does is g1ve the USGA more control over sconng," he said. "You could turn up here when t)lere's not a tournament and play a tournament By 1ts nature, tt' ~ already difficult. It's a strug' gle. They don't have to put the pm 2 feet over a tier They could put the pin 2 yards over a uer. It's tough enough" It certamly looked that way on a warm, breezy sunny afternoon Craig Kanada opted to hll a hybrid off the 313-yard 17th hole, where the big hitters often opt tor dnver H1s first shot was gobbled up by the rough on the left s1de. H1s second shot took one hop anu disappeared mto the high grass He finally got 1t nght on the thtrd try. Jeff Brehaut, playmg m hts fust maJor champtonsh•p, walked off the 18th green and handed golf balls to the two volunteers who walked around w1th him and U.S. Senior Open champwn Allen Doyle. When asked whether he had enough balls left to give away, Brehaut smtled "I lost a few of them out there," he said. Taylor grew up and sull hves in Augusta, Ga , but he was asked whether Oakmont was a club he would like to JOIIl 1f he lived here. "I don't know 1f I could play here every day," Taylor sa1d "Th1s course just beats you up." j The Daily Sentinel • Page 83 - Sentinel - l\e CLAS.SIFIED Gallia County, OH class 1hed@=ytnbunecom In One Week With Us REACH OVER 285,000 PROSPECTS PLUS YOUR AD NOW ONLINE ' WebSIIes· www.myda1lytnbune.com www.myda1lysent1nel com www myda1lyreg1ster com l\egister To Place m:rtbune Sentinel Your Ad, (740) 446-2342 (740) 992-2156 (304) 675-1333 Call TOday... or Fax To (740) 446-3008 or Fax To (740) 992·2157 Word Ads Monday thru Friday 8:00a.m. to 5:00 p.m. HOW IQ WRITE AN AD *POLICIES* Ohio Valley Publishing reserves lhe rightlo edll, reject or cancel any ad at any time.

Council approved making North Fourth one way from Race Street tp Walnut Street, and Walnut one way from North Fourth to North Third Avenue. Eric Chambers, a resident of Cole · Street, presented a. rationale to council. According to. Chambers, two-way traffic on Fourth creates a fire and safety hazard due to its narrow dimensions. Additional parking created by rental units has narrowed North Fourth to impassable conditions for so me vehicles. Some vehicles must back up to pass at the top of the hill on Walnut Street. Chambers said making the street a one-way route will eliminate unnecessary traffic flow, reduce speeding, and eliminate problems with parki·ng in the wrong direction and parking on the wrong side of the street. .
