WASHINGTON (AP) — TheObama administration's newestanti-pollution plan would pingAmerican drivers where theywince the most: at the gaspump. That makes argumentsweighing the cost against thehealth benefits politically potent.

The proposal to reduce sul-fur in gasoline and tighten autoemission standards, releasedFriday, would raise gasolineprices by less than a penny pergallon, the EnvironmentalProtection Agency says.

But the oil industry points toits own study putting the costbetween 6 and 9 cents a gallon.

“Some of the businessesin other areas prefer the effi-ciency with which theMiami council is run,” saidMikolajewski, who also isthe administrative assistantfor the Piqua Area Chamberof Commerce.

In addition to addressingsafety issues at its monthlymeetings and the workshopsand seminars that educatearea employers, the councilalso covers health andhuman resources issues,which intertwine with safe-ty matters. For instance, arecent workshop addressedgrief in the workplacewhich, Mikolajewski said,“can affect safety, as far aspeople’s work performance.If they are grieving, theymay not have their mind onwhat they’re doing and thatcan cause a safety issue. Italso can be an h.r. issue asfar as people being off work.”

Besides its educationalendeavors, the MiamiCounty Safety Council alsosponsors scholarships andholds a Christmas fooddrive.

“We have an excellentsteering committee withpeople who really care aboutsafety issues and the com-munity,” Mikolajewski said.

Another incentive forbusinesses to join the coun-cil is that all participatingemployers receive rebateson their workers’ compensa-tion premiums. Memberbusinesses can receive a 2percent rebate for attendinga specific number of safetycouncil programs, and anadditional 2 percent fordemonstrating a reductionin the frequency and/orseverity of workplace inci-dents.

Membership is open toall businesses, whether affil-iated with the Piqua AreaChamber of Commerce ornot. Annual membershipdues are $137, which coversone person attending each ofthe regular 12 lunch meet-ings per year. The nextmeeting will be at 11:30 a.m.April 11 at A LearningPlace, 201 Robert M.

WASHINGTON (AP) —Even with one of the largesthurdles to an immigrationoverhaul overcome, opti-mistic lawmakers onSunday cautioned they hadnot finished work on a billthat would provide a path tocitizenship for 11 millionillegal immigrants.

The AFL-CIO and thepro-business U.S. Chamberof Commerce reached a deallate Friday that would allowtens of thousands of low-skill workers into the coun-try to fill jobs in construc-tion, restaurants and hotels.Yet despite the unusualagreement between the twopowerful lobbying groups,lawmakers from both par-ties conceded that the nego-tiations were not finished.

“With the agreement

between business and labor,every major policy issue hasbeen resolved,” said Sen.Chuck Schumer, the NewYork Democrat who bro-kered the labor-businessdeal.

But it hasn’t taken theform of a bill and the eightsenators searching for acompromise haven’t metabout the potential break-through.

“We haven’t signed off,”said Sen. Lindsey Graham,R-S.C.

“There are a few detailsyet. But conceptually, wehave an agreement betweenbusiness and labor, betweenourselves that has to bedrafted,” he added.

Yet just before lawmak-ers began appearing onSunday shows, Sen. Marco

Rubio warned he was notready to lend his name andpolitical clout to such a dealwithout hashing out thedetails.

“Reports that the biparti-san group of eight senatorshave agreed on a legislativeproposal are premature,”said Rubio, a FloridaRepublican who is amongthe lawmakers working onlegislation.

Rubio, a Cuban-American who is weighing apresidential bid in 2016, is aleading figure inside hisparty. Lawmakers will beclosely watching any dealfor his approval and hisskepticism about theprocess did little to encour-age optimism.

Rubio, who is the group’semissary to conservatives,

called the agreement “astarting point” but said 92senators from 43 stateshaven’t yet been involved inthe process.

The detente between thenation’s leading labor feder-ation and the powerful busi-ness lobbying group stillneeds senators’ approval,including a nod from Sen.John McCain, the ArizonaRepublican whose previousefforts came up short.

“I think we’re on track. .But as Sen. Rubio correctlysays, we have said we willnot come to final agreementtill we look at all of the leg-islative language and he’scorrectly pointing out thatthat language hasn’t beenfully drafted,” Schumersaid.

Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz.,

also noted the significanceof the truce between laborand business but addedthat this wasn’t yet com-plete.

“That doesn’t meanwe’ve crossed every ‘i’ ordotted every ‘t,’ or viceversa,” said Flake, who isamong the eight lawmakersworking on the deal.

Schumer negotiated thedeal between AFL-CIOpresident Richard Trumkaand Chamber of Commercehead Tom Donohue duringa late-Friday phone call.Under the compromise, thegovernment would create anew “W” visa for low-skillworkers who would earnwages paid to Americans orthe prevailing wages for theindustry they’re working in,whichever is higher.

What you'll need• Pound cake• 1 cup buttercream or white frost-ing (canned is fine)• Yellow and red food coloring

AdditionalInstructionsCut the

pound cakeinto bread-like slicesand toastthem in atoaster ovenjust until they turn golden brown.Once they've cooled for a few min-utes, stack two slices for eachsandwich and cut the stack in halfdiagonally (slicing the sandwichbefore you fill it makes for fewercrumbs).Now tint the frosting by stirring

in a few drops of yellow and redfood coloring (more yellow than red)to get a shade of orange thatresembles American cheese.Carefully spread frosting

between the slices of each halfsandwich. If you mound the frostingon one slice, then top it with theother and gently press down, thefrosting will ooze out a bit and lookall the more like melted cheese.Makes one sandwich.

The history of AprilFool's Day or All Fool's Dayis uncertain, but the currentthinking is that it beganaround 1582 in France withthe reform of the calendarunder Charles IX. TheGregorian Calendar wasintroduced, and New Year'sDay was moved from March25-April 1 (New Year'sweek) to Jan. 1.Communication traveled

slowly in those days andsome people were onlyinformed of the change sev-eral years later. Still others,who were more rebelliousrefused to acknowledge thechange and continued tocelebrate on the last day ofthe former celebration, April1.These people were

labeled "fools" by the gener-al populace, were subject toridicule and sent on "foolerrands," sent invitations tononexistent parties and hadother practical jokes playedupon them. The butts ofthese pranks becameknown as a "poisson d'avril"or "April fish" because ayoung naive fish is easilycaught. In addition, onecommon practice was tohook a paper fish on theback of someone as a joke.This harassment evolved

over time and a custom ofprank-playing continue onthe first day of April. Thistradition eventually spreadelsewhere like to Britain andScotland in the 18th centuryand was introduced to theAmerican colonies by theEnglish and the French.

Because of this spread toother countries, April Fools’Day has taken on an inter-national flavor with eachcountry celebrating the holi-day in its own way.In England, jokes are

played only in the morning.Fools are called “gobs” or'gobby' and the victim of ajoke is called a “noodle.” Itwas considered back luck to

play a practical joke onsomeone after noon.In Rome, the holiday is

known as Festival of Hilaria,celebrating the resurrectionof the god Attis, is on March25 and also is referred to as"Roman Laughing Day."In Portugal, April Fools’

Day falls on the Sunday andMonday before lent. In thiscelebration, many people

throw flour at their friends.The Huli Festival is cele-

brated on March 31 in India.People play jokes on oneanother and smear colorson one another celebratingthe arrival of Spring.So, no matter where you

happen to be in the worldon April 1, don't be sur-prised if April fools fall play-fully upon you.

The Star-Ledger, NewJersey, on momentum for

assault weapons ban fades:This time was supposed to

be different.A crazed man entered a

school building and killed 20children and six adults with anassault rifle.

The sight last December ofterror stricken children fleeingSandy Hook ElementarySchool in Newtown, Conn., wassupposed to be the last straw.

One nightmare was imagin-ing the carnage inside, childrenunder the age of 7 slaughteredin the one place we expect chil-dren to be safe. Another night-mare was the unimaginable

grief of parents.The outcry for gun control

— and especially a ban onassault weapons — appearedto be gaining momentum.Enough was enough, everyonesaid.

Surely, a strong gun controllaw would finally be enacted,with perhaps the assaultweapons ban being reinstated.

The ban, which expired in2004, would certainly havemade a difference in the num-ber of children who survivedthe Newtown shooting.

The shooter could not haveshot as many, as quickly, as hedid.

But Senate Majority Leader

Harry Reid (D-Nev.) announcedthe assault weapon ban wouldnot be part of any gun controlbill, which he expects to intro-duce in April after the Easterbreak.

Gun control is personal withFeinstein, who was president ofthe San Francisco Board ofSupervisors in 1978 when shediscovered the murdered bod-ies of Mayor George Mosconeand supervisor Harvey Milk inCity Hall.

“The enemies on this arevery powerful, I’ve known thatall my life,” Feinstein told theWashington Post.

Somewhere, Wayne LaPierreof the NRA is smiling.

DOONESBURY

BY JESSICA SHELTONEdison Community College Student

Every day, people talk about how the United States of America prettymuch rules the world. America is, after all, the land of the free and thehome of the brave.

But if the U.S is so wonderful, then why does everyone put in so muchwork and get so little in return? The average American only gets 12 vaca-tion days each year, while the average German citizen gets 16 weeks.

Other countries have better statistics than the Unites States as well.Italy gets an average of 42 days and France gets an average of 35 days ofvacation per year. So what does this mean? In my opinion, it means thatsomething needs to change. And that change is going to start in the gov-ernment. Government in the United States is run by the people and forthe people.

Or so it is supposed to be. Based solely on the aspect of working daysversus vacation days every year, I would say that our nation’s govern-ment is not for or by the people at all. As stated earlier, the averageAmerican citizen receives only 12 days of vacation every year, but theaverage government officials in America are given anywhere from 20 to36 days of vacation each year, at least 10 days of which are paid vaca-tions. That is three times more than average United States citizens.

Now does that seem fair? It does not seem like it to me. This is whythere needs to be a change. Do not misunderstand me though, I do notbelieve in completely revamping or remodeling the U.S. government. It isnot a bad system as a whole, but there are certain aspects of it that aredue for a change.

I simply believe that Americans should receive similar benefits as thecitizens of other countries as far as workplace benefits. And while 16weeks of vacation would be great, it might be a bit too much. But to me,25 or 30 days of vacation each year would make the people who work inthe United States very happy. And that should not be too much to ask for,seeing as the majority of our own government officials are already receiv-ing more than that. With that, why are average people in America gettingthe short end of the stick? After all, there a lot more of us than there arepeople in government.

People in Germany, France and Italy obviously figured that out, sowhy have we here in the United States not realized it yet? Or is it notthat we have not realized it, but simply that the people belonging to theland of the free and home of the brave are too afraid to bring it up andmake a change? Either way, nothing is changing.

Not only that, but statistics show that the number of vacation days foraverage citizens are decreasing, not increasing. My days off from work arevery much so enjoyed, having even less of those would be terrible. Peoplework hard so that they can have and enjoy the few days off a year thatthey are actually given, and while there are many people right now thatneed to take on more days and hours to make ends meet at home, thereare also a lot of folks who would appreciate spending a few weeks withtheir families on vacation or relaxing at home instead of being withcoworkers every day.

In Germany, people can take multiple vacations to get away from thestress of everyday life, sixteen weeks worth or vacation. In France andItaly it is the same thing.

So why do Americans receive less than two weeks vacation a year? Dowe not deserve as much time away as those other countries? It is mybelief that we most certainly do. A change. One small little change in theUnited States could make a huge difference to all of its people. Andinstead of workers coming home from work and dreading the next daywhen they have to go back, maybe they can take a day off once in a whileand feel refreshed and ready to do their job even better than before.

But we will never know unless something is done to make it happen.And in my opinion, something really needs to be done to make it happen,because maybe Germany, Italy, and France have the right idea.

We are working on the giventhat Words With Friends is theworld’s best game. Words WithFriends is essentially onlineScrabble, but apparently it cannotbe called that for legal reasons.Play enough WWF and you will

learn every word that contains anX or ends with V or has a Q but noU. This, of course, is importantstuff and worth knowing.I try to keep at least a dozen

games going with various oppo-nents throughout the country.Different time zones allow me tohave an opportunity to play atalmost any hour. This is impor-tant, too.Every once in a while, an oppo-

nent will play an especially fantas-tic word. Often this is a word noone else has ever heard of but it isa fantastic one nonetheless. Theother day, someone put a 10-pointJ on a triple letter spot and thencontinued the play onto a tripleword block. You do the math.Being a good sport, or trying to

be a good sport, I like to text myopponent a compliment for anespecially brilliant play. (WordsWith Friends also supports texts,which is just one reason it is theworld’s best game). I try to be sin-

cere in my compliments eventhough the brilliant play almostalways goes on a spot on the boardI had coveted for myself.So, in response to the

triple/triple J, I texted “Yowza!” Atleast I tried to text “Yowza!” It wasat this point I became acquaintedwith AutoCorrect.As nearly as I can tell,

AutoCorrect is a horrible inven-tion that assumes the (expletivedeleted) machine knows yourintentions far better than you do.Having tried to teach my com-

puter and other electronic devicesthe finer nuances of body Englishfor the past 20 years, I can attestthat the computer and other elec-tronic device not only doesn’tknow your intentions, but if it did,it would do everything in its

power to thwart them.So now back to WWF. In an

admittedly mostly false show ofbonhomie, I attempted to send mycongratulations. To wit, “Yowza!”What the iPad sent (and I swear Iam not making this up) was“Towns!” Seriously. My opponentgot a one-word message from meand it was “Towns!” Imagine whatthat non sequitor did for thatguy’s self-confidence. Seeing thatthe iPad sent “Towns!” instead of“Yowza!” I tried again.Now my opponent has received

two texts from me, both of whichcarry the riveting message“Towns!” complete with exclama-tion point.Not wanting to appear any

more idiotic that I already do (Iam the person who left that spotvulnerable, after all), I sent yet athird message saying, “I retractmy previous texts. Nice play.”This is going to sound bad, but

isn’t all this AutoCorrect just a lit-tle bit auto arrogant? True, theiPad will go down in techno-histo-ry as a near miracle of semi-con-ductor engineering. Does it have torub our non-Silicon Valley noses init by usurping our right to sendthe word yowza?

It doesn’t stop there. MyAutoCorrect has tried to changecorrectly spelled words into some-thing that looks like Swahili. Howis this helpful?I would like to establish my

authority. I would like to assertmy opposable thumb superiority. Iwould like to teach AutoCorrectthat I am the master of mydomain. I would like to stateunequivocally that I and I alonewill decide who is yowza-worthyand who gets the mystery message“Towns!”I’d like to do all that but I don’t

know how to disable theAutoCorrect. It is taking on theappearance of the evil uber-com-puter HAL in “2001: A SpaceOdyssey.”The techno-phobes among us

knew this day would come. Theyare poised, ready to say, “I told youso.” Luckily, techno-phobes will nottry to text this message because itwould probably be changed to “Itold yowza.”Which, come to think of it, is

more progress than I was able tomake.

AP PHOTOIn this Wednesday, March 4, 2009, file photo, ElwinHope Wilson holds a framed photo he kept showing amob he participated in during one of local civil rights“sit-ins” that took place in the early 1960s, in Rock Hill,S.C. The South Carolina man who publicly apologizedfor years of violent racism, including the beating of ablack Freedom Rider who went on to become a Georgiacongressman, died Sunday. He was 76.

Elwin Wilson, the for-mer Ku Klux Klan support-er who publicly apologizedfor years of violent racism,including the beating of ablack Freedom Rider whowent on to become aGeorgia congressman, hasdied. He was 76.

Wilson died Thursday ata hospital in SouthCarolina after a bout withthe flu and years of heartand lung problems, said hiswife, Judy Wilson.

She told The AssociatedPress in a telephone inter-view Sunday that he wasrelieved he lived longenough to try to makeamends for years of racialhatred. He detailed hisdeeds at length when hecalled The Herald of RockHill to apologize shortlyafter President BarackObama’s inauguration in2009.

“He said he had it on hisheart for a long time,” JudyWilson said. “He said hewished he could find theones he mistreated andapologize to them all.”

Among his actions werecross burnings; hanging ablack doll in a noose at theend of his driveway; fling-ing cantaloupes at blackmen walking down MainStreet; hurling a jack han-dle at a black boy jigglingthe soda machine in hisfather’s service station; andthe brutal beating of U.S.Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., ata Rock Hill bus station in1961.

“His story is a powerfulstory; his story must not beforgotten,” Lewis told TheHerald in a telephoneinterview Saturday. “Hisstory and the way hearrived at his positionmust be understood, mustbe told.”

Wilson also apologizedin several other public ven-

ues, including during ameeting with Lewis at thecongressman’s Capitol Hilloffice.

In an April 2009 inter-view with the AP, Wilsontried to explain hisremorse.

“All I can say is that ithas bothered me for years,all the bad stuff I’ve done,”he said. “And I found outthere is no way I could besaved and get to heavenand still not like blacks.”

This month, Lewisreceived apologies from thecurrent police chief ofMontgomery, Ala., and thegovernor. But Wilson’sapology remains special.

“He was the first privatecitizen,” Lewis said. “Hewas the very, very first tocome and apologize to me… for a private citizen tocome along and say, ‘I’mthe one that attacked you;I’m the one who beat you.’It was very meaningful.”

In 2009, Lewis andWilson accepted theCommon Ground Awardfor Reconciliation at theCanadian embassy inWashington, D.C. Also thatyear, both were honored inCalifornia with awards onWorldwide ForgivenessDay. In Maryland, Wilsonpresented Lewis with anaward. They also told theirstory to OprahWinfrey andmillions of viewers.

Dear Readers: Here is thisweek’s SOUND OFF, about storesnot advertising the type of pro-duce, only the price:“I shop often at a large super-

market near my home. I noticewhen I’m trying to buy applesthat the price is available in largenumerals, but if you want to knowwhich kind of apple you are hold-ing, you must be able to read thattiny label stuck on the fruit.Other supermarket chains labeltheir fruit, so why can’t all ofthem? — Joan L., via email”Your guess is as good as mine!

Oh, you do have to guess, don’tyou? — HeloiseFAST FACTSDear Readers: Other uses for

standard pliers:

• Use to open difficult cans.• Hold a match to light a fire-

place.• For pulling weeds.• Use to remove a perfume

nozzle.• Use to thread shoelaces.— HeloiseBUTTON BRACELETDear Readers: I ran across a

button bracelet (red, white and

blue) that a reader gave to mejust two weeks after Sept. 11,2001. I was appearing at awomen’s show in Indianapolis onbehalf of the newspaper. I’d like toshare how she made it with apiece of elastic band and leftoverbuttons! And I want to thank thelovely woman (sorry, but I’ve for-gotten her name) who gavethis to me — if you read this,please let me know!Directions: Cut the elastic band

open and measure it to fit yourwrist. Leave a little extra lengthfor the closure. Lay the elastic flatand sew the buttons on in what-ever design you choose. You couldchoose a certain color or a theme,like pastels for Easter. Use differ-ent sizes and overlap the buttons

until you have the whole bandcovered (except the closure).When done, stitch the two endstogether. These make cute giftsfor a friend or yourself.—HeloiseSTRAW PLATESDear Heloise: I’ve used the

woven straw plates that supportpaper plates at summer picnicsand barbecues. But I use them inthe microwave as a base plate formy mug, soup bowl, even my din-ner plate.The straw does not get hot, and

it’s easy to put your fingers underthe straw plate, with thumbs onthe edge of the hot plate, andtransport your food safely.—Valerie in Lake Barrington,Ill.

SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

Dear Annie: I am an ele-mentary school teacher. Thisyear I have two 7-year-old stu-dents with major behaviorissues. Both of them have threat-ened to bring a gun to school andshoot me and their classmates.As shocking as it is to hear thisfrom such young children, theresponse from the people incharge is worse.I reported these threats multi-

ple times, and nothing has beendone.No one has even spoken to the

boys about their behavior. I wastold the kids are young and mostlikely don't have access to guns.Yet these kids have older siblingswho can obtain guns for them.In light of current events, I

take these threats seriously. I'vespoken to the principal, vice-principal, school social workersand the boys' parents. They alltell me I need to "focus on thepositive things the kids do."Am I crazy, or are they? What

should I do?Quitting my job is not an

option.— Worried TeacherDear Teacher:While it is not

uncommon for young children tomake such threats, they normal-ly do not follow through.However, there is a slim possibil-ity that one of these boys willbring a weapon to school andattempt to use it, especially if hehears news reports about otherschool shootings.The bigger problem is the

"major behavior issues." We real-ize you are fearful, but analarmed approach is not produc-tive.Are these boys receiving any

kind of ongoing counseling orassistance?Perhaps if you approach this

as a way to help the childrendevelop better coping skills, theschool will address it moredirectly and effectively.Dear Annie: Please let your

readers know of an easy way tosupport our troops. When buyinga new cellphone, donate your oldone to the nonprofit Cell Phonesfor Soldiers through cellphones-forsoldiers.com.Cell Phones for Soldiers was

founded in 2004 by Robbie andBrittany Bergquist of Norwell,Mass., when they were 12 and 13years old.The organization converts pro-

ceeds from used cellphones intoprepaid phone cards for ourtroops overseas. They havedonated more than 181 millionminutes to our troops, many ofwhom could not otherwise affordto call home.Please support those individu-

als who support our country.—Bay St. LouisDear Bay St. Louis: Thank

you for mentioning this veryworthwhile organization. Wehope our readers will keep it inmind when getting a new cell-phone.Dear Annie: I was perplexed

by the recent letter from "Mr.Manners" about bits of food thata diner drops on the plate. Heexpressed disgust that peoplepick up the bits with their finger-tips, and you concurred that itwas proper etiquette to use one'sknife to retrieve the droppings.I can display more grace pick-

ing up such bits with my finger-tips than anyone can with forksand knives. And what about thecenturies-old practice of soppingone's bread in leftover juices?However, my real question is:

In the grand scheme of things,what difference does it make if aperson picks up food bits withthe fingers? — Durant, Okla.Dear Durant: You may have

misunderstood the original letter.When eating peas and othersmall, hard-to-capture foods, it isbest to get them onto one's forkby using a knife or a piece ofbread, rather than pushing themwith one's fingers.It's unappetizing to watch

someone use their fingers. Andyes, you can sop bread in leftoverjuices, as long as you don't makea slurpy mess of it.

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM WEATHER Monday, April 1, 2013 9

GALAX, Va. (AP) —Nearly 100 vehiclescrashed Sunday along amountainous, foggy stretchof interstate near theVirginia-North Carolinaborder, killing three peopleand injuring 25 others.Police said traffic along

Interstate 77 in southwestVirginia backed up forabout 8 miles in the south-bound lanes after the acci-dents. Authorities closedthe northbound lanes sothat fire trucks, ambu-lances and police could getto the series of chain-reac-tion wrecks.Virginia State Police

determined there were 17separate crashes involving95 vehicles within a milespan near the base of FancyGap Mountain, spokes-woman Corinne Gellersaid. The crashes beganaround 1:15 p.m. Sundaywhen there was heavy fogin the area.“This mountain is noto-

rious for fog banks. Theyhave advance signs warn-ing people. But the problemis, people are seeing well

and suddenly they’re in afog bank,” said Glen Sage ofthe American Red Crossoffice in the town of Galax.Since 1997, there have

been at least six such pile-ups on the mountain butSunday’s crash was themost deadly, according toThe Roanoke Times. Twopeople died in crashesinvolving dozens of vehiclesin both 2000 and 2010.Overhead message

boards warned driverssince about 6 a.m. Sundayto slow down because of thesevere fog, Geller said. Thecrashes were mostly causedby drivers going too fast forconditions.At the “epicenter” was a

wreck involving up to eightvehicles, some of whichcaught fire, Geller said.Photos from the accidentscene showed a burned outtractor-trailer and severalcrumpled vehicles badlycharred. Those taken tohospitals had injuries rang-ing from serious to minor.School buses took

stranded people to sheltersand hotels.

Nina Rose, 20, and hermother, were driving hometo Rochester, N.Y., whenthey encountered the pile-up.“With so much fog we

didn’t see much around it,”Rose told the Roanokenewspaper. “As we got fur-ther up we just saw a bunchof people standing on themedian, just with their kidsand families all together.There were cars smashedinto other cars, and carsjust underneath othersemi-trucks.”Darrell Utt, 17, of Moore

County, N.C., was stuck inthe northbound lanes forabout three hours as he

traveled to Huntington, W.Va.“It was really foggy at

first,” he said. “We probablysaw over 50 tow trucks. Wesaw about five cars comedown and three semi-trucks. One of them, it did-n’t even look like a car, itlooked like a chunk ofmetal.”Utt said motorists were

calm, despite the trafficjam.“There was no road rage

or anything, everyoneunderstood the severity ofhow bad this was before weeven began to figure outwhat exactly happened,” hesaid.

3 killed in 95-vehicle pileup

LOS ANGELES (AP) —After a nine-month delay,“G.I. Joe: Retaliation”deployed to the top spot atthe box office.The action film starring

Dwayne “The Rock”Johnson, Bruce Willis andChanning Tatum as thegun-toting military toysbrought to life marchedinto the No. 1 position atthe weekend box office,earning $41.2 million,according to studio esti-mates Sunday.“Retaliation” openedWednesday at midnight,which helped bring itsdomestic total to $51.7 mil-lion.Paramount postponed

the sequel to 2009’s “G.I.Joe: Rise of Cobra” lastMay from its original Juneopening date to convert thefilm to 3-D. The last-minute switcheroo camejust weeks after“Battleship,” anothermovie based on a Hasbro(NYSE:HAS) toy, sank atthe box office. At that time,Paramount already beganits advertising campaignfor “Retaliation.”“It certainly vindicates

the decision,” said DonHarris, the studio’s head ofdistribution. “Any time youmake those sorts of moves,people always assume theworst. The truth is I’d seen

this movie a long time agoin 2-D, and the movieworked in 2-D. It’s not try-ing to be ‘Schindler’s List.’This movie is intended tobe enjoyed as a big, actionspectacle.”After debuting in the

top spot last weekend, the3-D animated prehistoriccomedy “The Croods” fromDreamWorks Animationand 20th Century Foxslipped to the No. 2 spotwith $26.5 million in itssecond weekend. The filmfeatures the voices ofNicolas Cage, Emma Stoneand Catherine Keener as acave family on the hunt fora new home.Among the other new

films this weekend, “TylerPerry’s Temptation” star-ring Jurnee Smollett-Belland Lance Gross openedabove expectations at No. 3with $22.3 million, whilethe sci-fi adaptation “TheHost” featuring SaoirseRonan, Max Irons, andJake Abel as charactersfrom the Stephenie Meyernovel landed at No. 6 in itsdebut weekend with a mod-est $11 million.Overall, the weekend

box office was on par withlast year when “TheHunger Games” continuedto dominate in its secondweekend of release with$58.5 million.

Michigan moves onARLINGTON, Texas (AP) —

Trey Burke and Michigan hadthe perfect response for everyonewho said they were too young ornot tough enough to make it allthe way to Atlanta.The championship trophy for

the South Region is headed backto Ann Arbor, while another fab-ulous group of young Wolverinesis going to the Final Four.Led by Burke and sharp-

shooting guard Nik Stauskas,one of three freshmen starters,Michigan controlled Floridafrom start to finish in a 79-59

win Sunday.“It means the world 20 years

has passed and we haven’t beenon that stage yet,” said TimHardaway Jr., the junior elderstatesman in the starting lineup.The last time Michigan made

it this far was the Fab Five era ofthe early 1990s, what until nowhad been considered the pro-gram’s glory years.Might be time to start

rethinking that.Once they got ahead Sunday,

the Wolverines (30-7) main-tained a double-digit lead

against the experienced Gators(29-8), who won the regular-sea-son title in the SoutheasternConference, but lost in a region-al final for the third straightyear.“We’ve almost become numb

to it now. Been here before,”Gators junior center PatricYoung said. “I just really wish wewere out there cutting the netsdown.”Stauskas scored 22 points

while making all six of his 3-pointers. Burke, the South

Wolverines on fire in 79-59 victory

Pointswins inHoustonHUMBLE, Texas (AP) D.A. —

Points came back from a long raindelay and made four pars, the lastone giving him a one-shot victory inthe Houston Open and a trip to theMasters.With a putter he once borrowed

from his mother and neverreturned, Points rolled in a puttfrom just outside 12 feet on thefinal hole to polish off a 6-under 66and avoid a sudden-death playoffwith Masters-bound HenrikStenson and Billy Horschel.It was quite a turnaround for

Points, whose only other PGA Tourwin was at Pebble Beach two yearsago with actor Billy Murray alongfor the laughs.He started the year by missing

the cut seven times in nine tourna-ments. He arrived at Redstone GolfClub having not broken 70 in lastnine rounds. But he stayed in thehunt after opening with a 64, andhe kept his calm when he returnedto the golf course after a rain delayof nearly three hours.Stenson birdied his last two

holes for a 66 before the stormsrolled acrossHouston, andwhile hecame up one shot short, he movedup toNo. 42 in theworld ranking toearn an invitation to the Masters.Horschel was on the 18th tee whenplay was halted, and then had towait some more for his turn to hiton the tough driving hole. He splitthe middle, found the green andtwo-putted for par to join Stensonin the clubhouse lead.They waited around for a play-

off that wasn’t necessary whenPoints saved par on his last twoholes.Phil Mickelson opened his final

round with four straight birdies,and he was still in the picture untila three-putt double bogey on the14th hole. He had a 68, and woundup six shots behind.Dustin Johnson had the lead at

one point until he missed a shortbirdie putt on the 11th, and thenhit his 5-wood into the water on thereachable par-4 12th hole, leadingto bogey. He wound up with a 65and finished two shots behind.

Louisville routs DukeINDIANAPOLIS (AP) —With

tears in their eyes and KevinWare in their hearts, there wasno way Louisville was losing thisgame.Russ Smith scored 23, Gorgui

Dieng had 14 points, 11 reboundsand four blocks, and top-seededLouisville put aside the shockfrom Ware’s gruesome leg injuryto earn a second straight trip tothe Final Four with an 85-63 vic-tory over Duke on Sunday after-noon.As the final seconds ticked

down, Chane Behanan putWare’s jersey on and stood at theend of the Louisville bench,

screaming. Cardinals fans chant-ed “Kevin Ware! Kevin Ware!”“We won this for him,” coach

Rick Pitino said. “We were allchoked up with emotion for him.We’ll get him back to normal.We’ve got great doctors, greattrainers.”Ware played his high-school

ball in Georgia and the FinalFour is in Atlanta, just adding tothe emotion for the victoriousCardinals.“We talked about it every

timeout, ‘Get Kevin home,’”Pitino said.

Angels, Reds game set for opening dayCINCINNATI (AP) — Josh

Hamilton is back where it allstarted.The outfielder got a standing

ovation for his pinch-hit appear-ance at Great American Ball Parkon opening day 2007, a momentthat completed his comeback fromyears of drug abuse. He’ll getanother grand introduction onMonday when his new team, theLos Angeles Angels, opens againstthe Reds.It’ll feel a bit like home.

“I mean, that’s where I startedto learn how to be a professional,”Hamilton said. “That’s where mywife learned how to deal with fans,media, raising kids and baseballculture.“So there will always be a spe-

cial feeling. Obviously there’s a lotof memories there, just because ofall my ‘firsts’ happened there myfirst at-bat, hit, RBI, home run,throwing somebody out.”Having Hamilton dig into the

batter’s box will be one of the few

familiar things about a mostunusual opener. For the first timein major league history, the seasonis starting with an interleaguegame.“It is very strange,” Reds man-

ager Dusty Baker said. “This usu-ally doesn’t happen until June orJuly. This adds even more impor-tance to your interleague record. Ipoint out to my team every yearthat it is at least 10 percent of yourschedule. It’s huge. Those gamescould mean the difference between

going to the playoffs or not.”Temperatures in the 40s with

occasional rain were predicted.Jered Weaver (20-5) makes hisfourth straight opening day startfor the Angels against JohnnyCueto (19-9),who is fully recoveredfrom an injury to his side duringthe playoffs last season.The two teams have taken

much different paths in trying toget to the playoffs.

RedsThe Reds kept their

roster virtually intactfrom the team that won 97games and the NL Centrallast season. After winningthe first two playoff gamesin San Francisco, the Redsdropped the next three athome to the eventualWorld Series champions.They’ve brought back

the starting rotation and

the back of the bullpen.Only two changes in thestarting lineup: Shin-SooChoo is playing center andbatting leadoff, while ToddFrazier takes over full-time at third base, wherehe filled in a lot as a rook-ie.“We look really great

on paper,” reliever SamLeCure said. “We have alot of guys coming back

from last year. The acqui-sitions that we madebringing (relieverJonathan) Broxton backand bringing in Choo wethink they are going topay huge dividends.”For Cincinnati, it’s not

about the first cold gamein April but those chillyones in late October. Theyhaven’t won a playoffseries since 1995.

“I want to get to thenext round of the play-offs,” second basemanBrandon Phillips said. “Iwant to start there.”The Angels just want to

get there. Unlike theReds, they decided tospend a lot of money andmake significant changes.The biggest was signingHamilton for $125 million,adding to an already for-

midable lineup thatincludes Albert Pujols,Mark Trumbo and MikeTrout, the AL Rookie ofthe Year.The Angels haven’t

been to the playoffs for thelast three years, theirlongest drought sinceMike Scioscia took over asmanager in 2000.It would be helpful if

Pujols could have a better

April this time around. Heopened last season withthe longest home rundrought of his career,going 33 games and 139at-bats before connecting.In the offseason, he hadsurgery on his right knee.He hit three homers in thespring but was botheredby a sore left foot, whichhas had plantar fasciitisduring his career.

LouisvilleThis was the first time

Pitino and MikeKrzyzewski had met in theregional finals since that1992 classic that endedwith Christian Laettner’simprobable buzzer-beater, agame now considered one ofthe best in NCAA tourna-ment history.

This game will beremembered, too, but for avery different and muchmore somber reason.

With 6:33 left in the firsthalf, Ware, who has playeda key role in Louisville’s 14-game winning streak,jumped to try and blockTyler Thornton’s 3-pointshot. When he landed, hisright leg snapped midwaybetween his ankle andknee, the bone skewingalmost at a right angle.Ware dropped to the floorright in front of theLouisville bench and,almost in unison, his team-mates turned away in hor-ror. Thornton grimaced,putting his hand to hismouth as he turnedaround.

Louisville forwardWayne Blackshear fell tothe floor and Behananlooked as if he was going tobe sick on the court, kneel-ing on his hands and feet.Luke Hancock pattedWare’s chest as doctorsworked on the sophomoreand Smith walked away,pulling his jersey over hiseyes. The arena was silent,and several fans wept andbowed their heads.

Pitino had tears in hiseyes as he tried to consolehis players. Dieng drapedan arm around the shoul-ders of Smith, who repeat-

edly wiped at his eyes andshook his head. TheCardinals (33-5) gatheredat halfcourt to try andregroup before Pitino calledthem over to the sideline,saying Ware wanted to talkto them before he left.

“Basically, the bonepopped out of the skin. Itbroke in two spots,” Pitinosaid. “Remember the boneis six inches out of his leg,and all he’s yelling is ‘Winthe game, win the game.’I’ve never seen anythinglike that.”

News of the injury dom-inated social media. JoeTheismann whose NFLcareer ended with a horrificbroken leg, said on Twitter,“Watching Duke/ Louisvillemy heart goes out to KevinWare.”

Fans chanted “Kevin!Kevin” as Ware was loadedonto the stretcher, andPitino wiped away tearsagain as Ware was wheeledoff the court.

“That was a tough one,”Pitino said.

Play resumed about 10minutes later, but it wasclear the Cardinals’ mindswere elsewhere. Theymissed four of their nextfive shots along with twofree throws, and wereuncharacteristically sloppy.But they regrouped after atimeout, with Smith’s fin-ger roll sparking a 12-6 runto finish the half that gavethem a 35-32 lead.

Smith picked up wherehe left off at the start of thesecond half, making allthree free throws afterbeing fouled on a 3-pointattempt to give Louisville a38-32 lead, its largest of thegame to that point.

MichiganRegion’s most outstandingplayer, scored 15 points,and 6-foot-10 freshmanMitch McGary had 11points and nine rebounds.

When the game ended,Burke and several of histeammates went to theopposite side of the courttoward Michigan fansbehind press row with fin-gers raised. Fans werechanting, “It’s great to be aMichigan Wolverine!”

And great to be young.“Seeing it all come

together, I don’t what tosay,” sixth-year Wolverinescoach John Beilein said.“I’m a little bit speech-less.”

Michigan hadn’treached the Final Foursince consecutive finalsappearances in 1992 and1993, the freshman andsophomore seasons of theFab Five Chris Webber,Jalen Rose, JuwanHoward, Ray Jackson andJimmy King.

Webber was gone beforethat team’s 1994 regionalfinal loss to Arkansasplayed in the now-demol-ished Reunion Arena inDallas, and Howard fol-lowed him to the NBAafter that.

With four wins in this

NCAA tourney, theWolverines already havemore tournament victoriesthan their total from theend of the Fab Five era tothis season. They had onewin in 1998, and then did-n’t even make the fieldagain until 2009.

Burke is fromColumbus, Ohio, and grewup an Ohio State footballfan while rooting for Dukebasketball. The sophomorestill knew of theWolverines’ history andisn’t surprised to be backin the Final Four again soquickly after arriving inAnn Arbor.

“I said it in the summerand the coaches kind of goton me saying we can benational championshipcontenders. But that wascoming from my heart,”said Burke, surrounded bythe sons of three formerNBA players. “I knew oncewe put the talent with thetoughness and execution,then I knew this teamcould be special. We’recoming together at theright time.”

Despite being the onlyteam to make regionalfinals each of the lastthree seasons, the Gatorshaven’t been to the FinalFour since winning consec-utive national titles in2006 and 2007 for coachBilly Donovan.

Kenny Boynton andErik Murphy, the four-year seniors who came innot long after those titles,will leave without one oftheir own. They were partof the only Gators class towin consecutive outrightSEC regular-season cham-pionships, but came upshort in the biggest games.
