Water fowl, monitor lizardsand stray dogs have replacedthe throngs of tourists at one ofThailand’s greatest historicalsites. Record flooding hasturned Ayutthaya’s ancient tem-ples into islands, and a giantstatue of the reclining Buddhaappears to float miraculously onthe lapping water.

Experts fear that at leasthalf of the more than 200 water-logged monasteries, fortressesand other monuments in theone-time royal capital have beendamaged.

“Imagine a thousand tons ofbrick and stone resting on softfoundations, with no modern-style pilings.We are very wor-ried,” said ChaiyanandBusayarat, director of theAyutthaya Historic Park.See Page 8.

The U.S. Army’s motto is “BeAll You Can Be,” which is fit-ting for Josiah Duncan, 17,

senior at Newton High School.Duncan, a trumpet player, was

selected to the U.S. ArmyAll-American MarchingBand on Nov. 7.

The All-AmericanMarching Band performsat halftime of the nation-ally broadcasted U.S.Army All-American Bowlin San Antonio, Texas.The 2012 U.S. Army All-American Bowl will betelevised live on NBC,from the Alamodome atnoon (CST) on Saturday,Jan. 7.

Yet, the nomination to play forthe U.S. Army is even more fittingfor this high school senior. Duncanrecently enlisted in the U.S. ArmyNational Guard and also plays inthe brass section of the 38th divi-sion band of the Army National

Guard located in Indiana.“I signed up before I even knew I

was going to play for the footballgame,” Duncan said. “After gradua-tion, I’ll leave for basic training, getmy assignment and go from there.”

Yet, before he graduates,Duncan joins an elite groupof only 125 high school bandmembers among the mil-lions in the United Stateswho are selected each yearto perform in the U.S.Army’s All-AmericanMarching Band.

“It’s very exciting. I’mjust going to practice and domy best and ‘Be all that Ican be’ just like their motto,”Duncan said with a laugh.

Duncan said he is both honoredand excited about the opportunity totravel to San Antonio for an all-expenses paid trip to meet othermusic-minded high school studentslike himself.

“I’ve only flown once in my lifeand I don’t remember it so I’m excit-ed to go down there to play in front

of a stadium full of people,” Duncansaid. “I’ve played the trumpet sincefifth grade. As I got older, playinggot easier and I practice a few hoursa day. It doesn’t feel like practiceanymore because I really enjoy it.”

Duncan was one of only twomusicians from the state of Ohiothat made the Army All-AmericanBand.

To be chosen, the students arenominated by their area band direc-tor and from that pool of nationwidecandidates students then go througha rigorous audition and interviewprocess.

Duncan was honored in a school-wide ceremony Nov. 7 that includedspeeches from U.S. RepresentativeRichard Adams and Ohio StateSenator Bill Beagle, his music

PLEASANT HILL

WASHINGTON (AP) — TheRepublican co-chair of a commit-tee in charge of slashing thenation’s deficit on Sunday calleddeliberations a “roller coaster ride”and gave no indication that a dealcould be struck before the panel’sThanksgiving deadline.

Texas Rep. Jeb Hensarling saidthe panel will fail unlessDemocrats agree to significant“structural” changes to entitle-ment programs like Medicare andSocial Security. When askedwhether that could be done in amatter of days, he said “we haven’tgiven up hope.”

“But if this were easy, the pres-

ident of the United States (BarackObama) and the speaker of theHouse (John Boehner) would havegotten it done themselves,”Hensarling said.

The supercommittee has untilNov. 23 to agree on how to reducethe deficit by at least $1.2 trillionin the next decade. Any amountless than that would be made up inautomatic across-the-board cutsdivided evenly between defenseand domestic programs.

The panel has been stymied forweeks over taxes. Democrats wantto raise revenue by making taxcode changes that directly addmoney to government coffers.

Republicans have agreed toincrease government revenue, butare demanding large cuts to bene-fit programs, which they say arebleeding Americans dry.

Both sides have blamed theother for failing to move forward.Last week, White House PressSecretary Jay Carney said that

Obama has told panel membersthat their finished product mustcontain both sources of new rev-enue, or taxes, as well as spendingcuts.

Hensarling offered no new talk-ing points Sunday, indicating that

KAPOLEI, Hawaii (AP) — PresidentBarack Obama on Sunday tied the hopesof a faster American economic recovery tothe booming Pacific Rim region, saying“we’re not going to be able to put our folksback to work” unless the Asia-Pacificregion is successful as an engine for theworld.

“We consider it a top priority,” Obamasaid of the region where his administra-tion is pouring in time and political capi-tal to expand exports and business ties.

The president spoke as he dove into aday of summit diplomacy, proudly using

his home state of Hawaii as the Americanfoothold to the Pacific. The meetingbrought together leaders of 21 nations ofthe Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperationforum, whose members span from Chile toChina and account for roughly half theworld’s trade and economic output.

In the midst of a tough re-election bid,Obama kept his message on jobs, even ashe privately lobbied for help on containingthe Iranian nuclear threat.

He was to cap the summit with a solo

WARSHEFANA, Libya(AP) — Rival militiasclashed on the outskirts ofthe Libyan capital for afourth day Sunday in thedeadliest and most sus-tained violence since thecapture and killing ofMoammar Gadhafi lastmonth.

Fighters attacked eachother with rockets, mortarsand machine guns, wit-nesses said. The fighting,which has killed at least 13people since late last week,raised new concerns aboutthe ability of Libya’s tran-sitional government to dis-arm thousands of gunmenand restore order after aneight-month civil war.

Libya’s interim leader,Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, saidhis National TransitionalCouncil brought togetherelders from the feudingareas — the coastal city ofZawiya and the nearbytribal lands of Warshefana— over the weekend andthat the dispute has beenresolved. “I want to assurethe Libyan people thateverything is under con-trol,” he said Sunday.

However, as he spoke,fighting continued.

Heavy gunfire andexplosions of rocket-pro-pelled grenades wereheard over hours Sundayin the area between theWarshefana lands, about18 miles (30 kilometers)west of Tripoli, andZawiya, another 10 miles(15 kilometers) to the west.White smoke rose into theair.

At one point, the twosides were battling for con-trol of a major militarycamp of the ousted regime,said a fighter from Tripoli.The camp, once a base ofelite forces commanded byone of Gadhafi’s sons,Khamis, is located on ahighway midway betweenTripoli and Zawiya.

In all, at least 13 peoplewere killed in the fighting,including four from Zawiya

news conference in whichtopics on and off his script-ed agenda were likely toemerge.

Born in Hawaii, Obamareveled in having the worldstage on his home turf,while back east theRepublicans seeking tooust him from the WhiteHouse assailed his foreignpolicy record.

Obama used hismoment to signal to busi-ness executives and Asianleaders that the UnitedStates has shifted from apost-Sept. 11 war focus tore-engagement all acrossthe Pacific.

“We represent close to 3billion people, from differ-ent continents and cul-tures,” Obama told hisAPEC partners onSaturday, ahead of someHawaiian luau entertain-ment. “Our citizens havesent us here with a com-mon task: to bring oureconomies closer together,to cooperate, to create jobsand prosperity that ourpeople deserve so that theycan provide for their fami-lies.”

The president is on a 9-day venture away fromWashington’s daily politi-cal gridlock. He will visitAustralia and Indonesiabefore returning to theWhite House on Nov. 20.

Obama met Sunday

with Canadian PrimeMinister Stephen Harperafter a joint meeting ofthose two leaders andMexican President FelipeCalderon had to be can-celed because of a helicop-ter crash that killedMexico’s top cabinet secre-tary. Handlers for Obamaand Harper tried to makethe most of the moment forthe cameras, staging notone but two photo ops ofObama and Harper, firstlaughing while seated at apatio table, then strollingwith their suit coats slungover their shoulders.

On Saturday, largely aday of sideline meetingshere, Obama prodded theskeptical leaders of Russiaand China for support indialing back Iran’s nuclearambitions, but withoutwinning endorsement fromeither man. NeitherRussian President DmitryMedvedev nor ChinesePresident Hu Jintao pub-licly echoed Obama’s pushfor solidarity over Iran.

Obama did announcethe broad outlines of anagreement to create atrans-Pacific trade zoneencompassing the UnitedStates and eight othernations before going intomeetings with Hu andMedvedev where he raiseda new report from the U.N.International AtomicEnergy Agency. The reportasserted in the strongest

and nine from Warshefana,according to gunmen and ahospital doctor inWarshefana. More than 100people from Warshefanawere wounded sinceSaturday, said Dr.Mohammed Sawan, addingthat casualties stemmedfrom gunshots as well asshrapnel from rockets andmortar shells.

On Sunday evening, aWarshefana field command-er, Ashraf Borwais, deliv-

ered a severely burnedfighter to the local hospital.He said the man waswounded when his vehiclewas struck by artillery andexploded. Borwais saidfighting had stopped in theevening. “The dogs haveretreated,” he said, referringto the Zawiya militiamen.

Zawiya fighters, mean-while, manned roadblockson the outskirts of their cityat intervals of about 200yards (meters). Groups ofjumpy armed men, somebrandishing RPGs, crowded

around the checkpoints.Fighters searched trunks ofcars and checked IDs.

The reason for the initialclash remains unclear,though accusations havebeen flying, including thatsome of theWarshefana hadlinks to the old regime. Atone point last week, fightersfrom Zawiya enteredWarshefana and seizedweapons.

In retaliation,Warshefana fighters set uprandom checkpoints andfired at the main highway.

teacher Jason Graham and alsoNancy Ditmer, president-elect forthe National Association forMusic Education (NAfME).

“That was pretty special tohave that many people comebecause of this honor to play forthe U.S. Army’s All-AmericanBowl,” Duncan said.

“They had some really nicethings to say.”

“It’s going to be pretty cool toperform with other kids thatenjoy music as much as I do.”

Duncan’s father, Ron, also is amember of the 38th division bandof the Army National Guard. RonDuncan also performed “Taps”forthe 100th running of the Indy 500race this past Memorial Day.

“My wife and I are so proud ofour son and it has been a greatday for our school, communityand the Duncan family,” Ron

Duncan said of his son’s opportu-nity.

Duncan said he will soon startpracticing for the performanceand must submit video footage ofhis progress.

Submitting video isn’t a prob-lem since Duncan said he enjoysmaking videos and may pursue acareer in the medium.

“I really like making films andbeing the director, so it feels dif-ferent being in front of the cam-

era,” Duncan said.Yet, Duncan will be on camera

once again in January, not onlyperforming, but representingNewton High School, his commu-nity of Pleasant Hill and his coun-try.

the two sides remain farfrom reaching consensus.

“We want more rev-enues. We just want toraise it by growing theeconomy,” he said.

Likewise, Democraticpanel member Rep. JamesClyburn offered no hintthat a real compromisewas in the works.

“We’ve got 10 days to dothis, and I really believethat all of the ingredientsfor a good resolution arethere.We just need to buildthe will,” said Clyburn, D-S.C. At the same time,Clyburn accusedRepublicans of wanting tocut a billionaire’s tax billby $300,000 while elimi-nating Medicare for peopleon a fixed income.

“That is just not fair,” hesaid.

Pennsylvania Sen. PatToomey, a Republicanmember of the committee,defended his latest propos-al as one that would getthe economy moving again.Toomey and otherRepublicans want to gener-ate at least $250 billion innew revenue by limitingtax deductions but only ifDemocrats agree to dropthe top tax rate from 35percent to 28 percent.

“You absolutely can dothis in a way that will bepro-growth, that will gen-erate more revenue, (and)that would avoid this hugetax increase that’s comingotherwise,” Toomey said.

Democrats have reject-ed the idea as somethingthat will ultimately costmore than it would save,and called for a mix of $1trillion in spending cutsand $1 trillion in highertax revenue over the nextdecade.

Virginia Sen. MarkWarner, a Democrat whosupports entitlement andtax reform, suggested thatpolitics was the biggest cul-prit in preventing a deal.

“You’ll know this super-committee is getting closewhen folks on both ends ofthe political extremescream the loudest,because that will show thatthere’s actually movementbeing made,” he said.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) —Republicans vying to challenge PresidentBarack Obama for his job tangled overwaterboarding, Iran and what to do aboutthe decade-long war in Afghanistan. Onething they all agreed on is that Obamaneeds to go.

Herman Cain and Rep. MicheleBachmann both said in Saturday’s GOPprimary debate on foreign policy thatthey would reinstate waterboarding, aninterrogation technique designed to sim-ulate drowning and widely consideredtorture.

Cain said he would leave it up to mili-tary leaders, not their civilian superiors,to decide what forms of interrogationamount to torture, which he said heopposes.

As for the war in Afghanistan, formerUtah Gov. Jon Huntsman and Rep. RonPaul of Texas both said it was time for

U.S. troops to come home.While the Republicans were talking

about foreign policy, Obama was on theworld stage as America’s diplomat inchief.

After meeting with Russian PresidentDmitry Medvedev in Hawaii, he said thetwo men intend to “shape a commonresponse” to new allegations that Iranhas been covertly trying to build anuclear bomb. The issue is fraughtbecause the regime in Tehran is harshlyanti-Israel, a nation the United Stateshas pledged to defend.

If the presidential trip gave theRepublicans pause, they didn’t show it intheir 90-minute debate.

“There are a number of ways to besmart about Iran, and a few ways to bestupid. The administration skipped allthe ways to be smart,” said former HouseSpeaker Newt Gingrich.

The Asahi Shimbun, Tokyo, on world population growth:Sakyo Komatsu, a Japanese writer who recently died, wrote a short

story titled “Gogo no burijji (Playing bridge in the afternoon)” about aglobal food crisis.The story is set in a future world where most species of animals

have become extinct as an exploding global population has led toexplosive growth in meat consumption. As a result, people around theworld have to live mostly on artificial foods.The world’s population recently hit 7 billion. Five decades ago, the

number of people living on this planet was slightly over 3 billion. Itmore than doubled in just a half century.Warnings about a food crisis due to the population explosion have

been issued many times. But humankind has so far managed to pre-vent a global food crisis through species improvement and outputexpansion.While obesity is spreading in industrial nations where food is

abundantly available, eastern parts of Africa are suffering fromfamine.Criticism of the concentration of wealth in the

hands of a small number of people is gaining trac-tion in the United States and Europe, but there areeven greater income disparities between richnations and poor ones.The natural environment around us is deterio-

rating rapidly. Global emissions of carbon dioxide,which push up the Earth’s temperature withpotentially dire consequences, keep growing, whilethe total number of species, excluding humanbeings, is decreasing fast.The pace of global population growth is slowing.

Still, nearly 80 million are added to the global com-munity every year.This precious planet is crowded with 7 billion

people. We all have the obligation to make thisworld a better place to live for new members of thehuman community who will arrive in the comingyears.

The Telegraph, London,on Italy’s euro crisis:

At the G20 summit in Cannes last week, suchwas Silvio Berlusconi’s lack of interest in talks onhow to stop Italy becoming the next victim of theeurozone crisis that he fell asleep and had to benudged back to consciousness by his officials.The episode was somehow symbolic of the

absence of political leadership at the helm of theeurozone’s third largest economy as it heads,apparently helplessly, toward calamitous shipwreck.Among other eurozone leaders, there is a widespread assumption,

shared to some extent by the financial markets, that Berlusconi is thevery personification of the Italian problem — that the sooner he isgone, the sooner the necessary fiscal and structural reform can bedelivered, and the threat of Italian default removed.Unfortunately, this is wishful thinking. Berlusconi, who over the

years has survived almost as many coups as he has had mistresses,will stand down shortly. The scale of the economic challenge facing hiscountry, and the pressure applied by a Franco-German axis that isfast taking control of the eurozone’s democracies, has finally dislodgedhis grip on the Italian political system.Yet while Berlusconi may preside over an economy that is essen-

tially corrupt, it is not clear that his removal will bring anything morethan short-term relief.There is no reason to believe that whoever succeeds him will be

any more capable of delivering the demanded reforms. For all itsfaults, Berlusconi’s government has been among the more stable post-war Italian administrations. It has also been philosophically in favorof free-market reform. His fall is likely to mean a return to the politi-cal turbulence of the past.It is certainly possible for economies to regain competitiveness

through the painful corrective measures the eurozone prescribes —wage and spending cuts included — but the political and social dam-age of such an adjustment is going to be extreme.

At last count, my list of pass-words for access into various pro-grams ran to three pages. Singlespaced. We wasted decades fearingthe Russians were going to over-run us. Now it turns out all thistime we should have been afraid ofBill Gates.In the early days, it was easy.

You needed a simple password tolook at your email. Once thatpassword was typed in, the inno-cent, willing world of the Internetwas at your feet. There were nohackers, no phishers, no evil per-sonages trying to steal your identi-ty. Then “for our convenience” itbecame possible to do business on-line. Stepped-up security was nec-essary and thus was born theissue of trying to remember ThePassword For All Seasons. It wastoo good to last.Computer experts began to

warn us not to use passwords thatwere easy to guess or too simpleor, for heaven’s sake, the same onefor every application.We’re not supposed to use our

birth date or our street address orany other number too closely asso-ciated with our lives. Above all,we’re not supposed to write thesepasswords down. Who do theythink they’re kidding? There isn’t

a normal adult around (and bynormal adult I mean one whodoesn’t make a living giving semi-nars on improving memory skills)who doesn’t harbor a secret cheatsheet filled to the edges with nota-tions like “ 57 Chevy” and“Teacher 1.”And now it’s nearly impossible

to get by with just simple numer-als. Most places require someincredibly complex combination ofletters and numbers and uppercase and lower case with thethreat of the dreaded “accessdenied” when we fail to rememberit all in three tries or less.One of the few places left where

I can use a four digit access codeis for my gasoline rewards card ...the one that gives me a free bever-age for every $90 worth of gas I

buy. Apparently even computerhackers have standards and theydraw the line at violating myrecords for a 12-ounce cappuccino.“Access denied” is a whole other

can of words, as it were. If you failto input your password correctly,you are challenged to answer secu-rity questions. They’re secure, allright.We tried to pay off the loan on

Steve’s truck last week. Naturally,we could not remember the pass-word to the account even thoughwe successfully entered the nine-zillion-character VIN, which servesas the account number.He has, of course, only one

maternal grandmother and wefaithfully entered her name inanswer to the prompt. This wenton for several tries until the awful“access denied” was replaced bythe insurmountable “account lock-out.” Seems we were spelling itwrong.I recently started using a sys-

tem that requires three differentpasswords at three separate por-tals for access. Three. This, youunderstand, is a no-hoper. I havethat exact number of sisters and Ican barely keep their namesstraight. Now I’m required toremember three unique pass-

words, IN THE CORRECTORDER to use this system. Thefirst password is all numbers.That is the good news.The bad news is there are 10 of

them. The second passwordrequires a seven letter word begin-ning with a capital letter followedby a single digit. The third pass-word is a nine character mix ofletters and numbers and sacredincantations and, for all I know,voodoo.It’s taking up way too much of

my own personal memory board todeal with it. By the time I get intothe system, I’ve forgotten why Iwanted to go there.If hackers can get into the

Pentagon database with all thoseprofessionally installed layers ofsecurity, it’s obvious us poor ama-teurs don’t stand a chance.We should just abandon any

hope for online security right nowand erect billboards offering ourpasswords to anyone who wantsthem.That’s just what I’d do if only I

could remember them.

Man missing afterexplosion found dead

FAIRBORN —Authorities searchedSunday for a 75-year-oldman thought missing aftera house exploded in west-ern Ohio, injuring six oth-ers, including four chil-dren, and damaging neigh-bors’ homes. The explosionsent debris and the victimsinto the yard, and a neigh-bor reported seeing a babyburned, bloodied and cov-ered in glass.

Fairborn Fire MarshalCarl Day said the man hadbeen found Sunday after-noon but didn’t saywhether he’d died. He wasexpected to release thatinformation and otherdetails later Sunday.

The 1-year-old baby wasin fair condition and a 5-year-old was in good condi-tion Sunday morning, aspokesman for DaytonChildren’s Medical Centersaid. A third child, whoseage wasn’t available, wastreated and releasedSaturday.

A 13-year-old was trans-ferred in critical conditionto Shriner’s Hospital forChildren, one of about fourhospitals in the countryspecializing in pediatricburns, said spokeswomanLouise Holker. Two menalso were injured. Theirconditions were not given.

Work was being done onthe duplex’s water line

when the gas line wasstruck, causing the explo-sion, Day said.

The blast was one ofthree in the Midwest overthe weekend. Another inBenton Township in south-western Michigan killedtwo people late Saturdayand seriously injuredanother. Its cause wasn’timmediately known, butrelatives say several oxy-gen tanks were inside. Andan explosion in Chicago onSunday morning flattenedone home, scorched othersand sent two people to thehospital with serious burns.Fire officials and utilitieswere investigating.

A woman who livedabout 100 yards from theOhio home that exploded,Cybil Poole, told the DaytonDaily News that the blast

felt like a car hitting it. Shesaid she saw the infantlying in the yard and thatsome of the other victimswere still on fire.

“It was horrible. It waslike a movie scene. You seethis huge fireball and yousee people come out of it onfire,” she said.

Another neighbor, PaulaCorelli, told the newspaperthat she was almost hit bya flying piece of wood fromthe explosion. When shesaw two adults runningdown the sidewalk carryingthree bloodied children, sheoffered to take them whilethe adults returned to thescene.

“Medics told me to keepthem awake because theyhad head injuries, so wesang to them, me andanother woman,” Corelli

said. “And we didn’t letthem look back. It was stillon fire and there was a lotof blood.”

Some of the victims wereairlifted to hospitals.

Windows shattered onhomes on both sides of thedestroyed house. Debriscould be seen a block away.

The gas was turned offto the house that exploded,Day said. Several others inthe neighborhood wereevacuated as a precaution,but some residents wereallowed to return hourslater.

Chase Kelley, a spokes-woman for Vectren Corp.,said it hasn’t been con-firmed that there was a gasleak and the companywould likely conduct itsown investigation into thecause of the explosion.

NEW YORK (AP) —Rapper Snoop Dogg gaveprops on Twitter to an adfor the Toyota Sienna mini-van. Actress Tori Spellinglinked to a website forrental cars. And reality TVstar Khloe Kardashiansoliloquized aTwitterchanges business ofcelebrity endorsements-bout the brand of jeansthat accentuates thefamous Kardashian der-riere.

“Want to know how OldNavy makes your butt lookscary good? Ask aKardashian,” the realityTV star wrote, or tweeted,on the social media web-site. Of course, she cappedoff the reflection with asmiley face.

These celebs aren’t justwriting about family carsand fashion choices for theheck of it.

Stars can get paid bigbucks sometimes $10,000or more per post to pontifi-cate about clothes, cars andmovies in the 140 charac-ters or less allowed pertweet.

Twitter, which in itsfive-year existence hasreshaped how people shop,vote and start revolutions,is now changing the busi-ness of celebrity endorse-ments. Just as Match.comand eHarmony pair up sin-gles for dates, a growingnumber of startup firmsare hooking up companieswith stars who get paid topraise products to theirthousands sometimes mil-lions of Twitter followers.

The list of celebs andthe things they hawk is

long and getting longer allthe time. The endorse-ments range from subtle toblatant; the celeb pairingsfrom sensible to downrightodd.

Singer Ray J urged his600,000-plus Twitter fol-lowers to see the horrormovie “Saw 3D.” Footballstar Terrell Owens gave ashout-out in front of hismore than 1 million follow-ers to a hotel chain givingaway sports tickets:“Comfort Inn is hooking up3 days of it!” Lamar Odom,L.A. Lakers forward, tweet-ed to his nearly 2 millionfollowers about hip-hopartist and entrepreneurJay-Z’s book “Decoded”:“My man Jay-Z … only rap-per to rewrite history with-out a pen. Until now.”

Of course, anything onTwitter is short-lived andreaches only a small, self-selecting audience:Research firm eMarketerestimates that only 11 per-cent of U.S. adult Internetusers are on the micro-blogging site. And eventhough some celebs havefaithful groups of followers,it can be hard to measurewhether their tweets leadpeople to spend.

Still, celeb tweets can bea way to grab a captiveaudience at a time whenmany people are skippingTV commercials with theirdigital video recorders. Andpaying a celeb to tweet ismuch cheaper than a tradi-tional advertising cam-paign.

Want a tweet fromKhloe Kardashian? Thatwill cost about $8,000,

according to prices listedby social media marketerIzea. Looking for a cheaperoption? Ray J is about$2,300.

Companies like Izea,Ad.ly and twtMob usuallypair products with celebsthrough a combination ofsoftware algorithms andHollywood instinct. Thecompanies say they usemany metrics to gauge theeffectiveness of a paidtweet, such as the numberof times it gets reposted byothers.

When Ad.ly got CharlieSheen to tweet forInterships.com in March,the actor was in the midstof getting fired from his sit-com “Two and a Half Men”over accusations of hardpartying and drug use.Within an hour of Sheen’sfirst post, Internships.comgot more than 95,000clicks.

“I’m looking to hire a(hash)winning INTERNwith (hash)TigerBlood,”tweeted Sheen, who hadjust recently signed up forTwitter and now has morethan 5 million followers.

Dan Smith, vice presi-dent of marketing for thewebsite CampusLIVE,which helps advertisersconnect with college stu-dents, hired Izea to helphim get a celebrity to tweetabout his company. Izeagave him a short list, whichincluded names like“Jersey Shore” reality TVstar JWOWW, comedianMichael Ian Black and rap-per Bow Wow.

Smith polled his internsand they picked LindsayLohan, the actress mostfamous for her run-ins withthe law. According toSmith, CampusLIVE paidLohan about $3,500 for onetweet: “These challengesfor college kids on(hash)CampusLIVE are SOaddicting!”

The post to Lohan’s 2.6million fans drove about4,500 clicks to the website,Smith said. But he alsosaid he wasn’t sure if he’d

use her again not becauseof her troubles, but becausehe’s already tapped her fanbase. His interns wanted toknow if comedian WillFerrell is available. SaidSmith: “That would be acool one to get.”

For the record, Ferrellisn’t on Twitter, says hisspokesman, Matt Labov,who adds that the Twitterhandles sporting his nameare “imposters.”

For her part, Lohan onher own time tweets abouttopics like fulfilling hercommunity service sen-tence. But she has alsoposted comments for Izeaon a few occasions, thecompany says. Her tweetsabout wind energy (“Whilesaving the world … savemoney! I love it!”) andabout a gold mining compa-ny (“R ur savings safe?Think again!”) were paidendorsements, according toIzea’s website.

Those posts, along withthe CampusLIVE tweet,included the characters“(hash)ad” at the end,which indicates that a postis a paid endorsement.

But Lohan’s publicist,Steve Honig, says thatLohan does not “sell” hertweets: “She uses Twitterto communicate with herfans and let them knowwhat she’s up to.”

Like any endorsement,celeb tweets come with therisk that a star’s behaviorwill not coincide with thecompany’s image. And ofcourse, there’s a science topicking the right one: Willconsumers buy that theirfavorite rapper drives aminivan?

Twitter generally allowsthe paid tweets, as long asthey’re posted manuallyand not automated by acomputer program.

The Federal TradeCommission suggestsendorsers end their tweetswith the (hash) symbol,called a hash tag, and theletters “ad” or “spon,” shortfor “sponsored by,” to clarifythat they’re ads.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP)— Is Linus jumping for joy?

The blanket, an all-pur-pose plaything as well as acomfort for generations ofthumb-suckers like CharlieBrown’s best friend in the“Peanuts” comic strip, land-ed Thursday in theNational Toy Hall of Famealong with Hot Wheels andthe dollhouse.

The trio take theirplaces at The Strong, a chil-dren’s and cultural historymuseum in upstate NewYork, alongside 46 classicsranging from the bicycle,kite and teddy bear toBarbie, Jack-in-the-Boxand Mr. Potato Head.

Curators said the blan-ket was a special additionin the spirit of two earlierinductees, the cardboardbox and the stick. Theypraised its ability to serveeither as recreational rawmaterial or an accessorytransformed in myriadways by a child’s day-dreams.

“Every now and againwe like to shake things up,remind folks there’s playexperiences that happenpurely creatively … ratherthan coming with rules, apath, a backstory you feelconstrained into,” saidChristopher Bensch, theRochester museum’s chiefcurator.

Longevity is a key crite-rion for getting into the 13-year-old hall, which was

acquired in 2002 from A.C.Gilbert’s Discovery Villagein Salem, Ore. Each toymust be widely recognized,foster learning, creativity ordiscovery through play, andendure in popularity overgenerations.

Trying to create a toythat would be as big a suc-cess with boys as Barbiewas with girls, ElliotHandler hit upon an ideafor miniature die-cast vehi-cles with sleek designs. HotWheels were introduced in1968 and the brand becamea big hit.

Handler, who died inJuly at age 95, grew MattelInc. into the nation’s largesttoy maker along with hiswife, Ruth, who created theBarbie doll in 1959.

The dollhouse evolvedfrom 16th-century “babyhouses,” wooden cabinets inwhich wealthy Europeanwomen displayed their col-lections of miniature fur-nishings.

German toy makers pro-duced variations for young-sters to furnish with tinychairs, tables, beds, tapes-tries and floor coveringsand, by the 19th century,mass-production methodsenabled dollhouses to growin popularity.

“The dollhouse has goneon to hold a special place inthe hearts of childreneverywhere,” said PatriciaHogan, the museum’s cura-tor of toys and dolls.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — In atense escalation of the OccupyPortland protest, police in riot gearSunday surrounded demonstratorsin a downtown park area after hun-dreds of people defied the mayor’sorder to leave the park by midnight.By early afternoon, officers had

mostly surrounded the camp wherethe protesters were holding a “gen-eral assembly” meeting to discusstheir next moves following the evic-tion order.Some officers used nightsticks to

push people away from the encamp-ment and used loudspeakers towarn that anyone who resistedrisked arrest and “may also be sub-ject to chemical agents and impactweapons.” Demonstrators chanted“we are a peaceful protest.”Police could be seen carrying at

least one protester away from thepark. Another man was taken awayon a stretcher; he was alert and talk-ing to paramedics, and raised apeace sign to fellow protesters, whoresponded with cheers. There was noimmediate word on arrests.“We were talking about what we

were going to do and then they juststarted hitting people. Seems like awaste of resources to me,” protesterMike Swain, 27, told The AssociatedPress.Choya Adkison, 30, said police

moved in after giving demonstratorsa false sense of calm. They thoughtthey had time to rest, relax andregroup, she said

“Camp was completely vulnera-ble, completely defenseless” whenpolice moved in, she said. “I’m disap-pointed that they created a sense oftrust by walking away and thencompletely trampled it.”Mayor Sam Adams had ordered

the camp shut down Saturday atmidnight, citing unhealthy condi-tions and the encampment’s

attraction of drug users and thieves.The anti-Wall Street protesters

and their supporters had flooded thepark area even as authorities inother cities stepped up pressureagainst demonstrators, arresting

dozens of people.At one point overnight, the

Portland crowd swelled to thou-sands. As dawn arrived, riot policehad retreated and most of thecrowds had gone home, but protest-ers who have been at the two parkssince Oct. 6 were still there.One of the organizers, Jim Oliver,

said the night had been a victory forOccupy Portland.“We stood up to state power,”

Oliver told the AP, standing on a cor-ner opposite the camp.Still, the camp was a shadow of

what it was before Saturday.

Occupy protest newsin other cities overthe weekend:— In Salt Lake City, police

arrested 19 people Saturday whenprotesters refused to leave a park aday after a man as found deadinside his tent at the encampment.The arrests came after policemoved into the park early in theevening where protesters had beenordered to leave by the end of theday. About 150 people had been liv-ing in the camp there for weeks.— In Albany, N.Y., police arrest-

ed 24 Occupy Albany protestersafter they defied an 11 p.m. curfewin a state-owned park. State policeofficials hauled away the protestersafter warning them with mega-

phones that they were breaking thelaw in Lafayette Park. They werecharged with trespassing.— In Denver, authorities forced

protesters to leave a downtownencampment and arrested four peo-ple for interfering with officers whoremoved illegally pitched tents,said police spokesman SonnyJackson.— In San Francisco, violence

marked the protest Saturdaywhere police said two demonstra-tors attacked two police officers inseparate incidents during a march.Police spokesman Carlos Manfredisaid a protester slashed an officer’shand with a pen knife while anoth-er protester shoved an officer, caus-ing facial cuts. He said neither offi-cer was seriously hurt, and theassailants couldn’t be located.

WASHINGTON (AP) —Nothing about theSupreme Court — not itsmagnificent building atopCapitol Hill nor its verytitle — suggests that itsword is anything otherthan final. Yet federalappellate judges and evenstate court judges some-times find ways to insiston an outcome theSupreme Court has reject-ed.Just last week, the jus-

tices rebuked judges onthe federal appeals courtin San Francisco in thetragic case of a LosAngeles-area grandmoth-er who was convicted ofshaking her 7-week-oldgrandson to death. Theappeals court overturnedthe conviction three timesand twice, the justicesordered the appellatejudges to try again. Thethird time around, the jus-tices ended the case, point-edly upholding the convic-tion.“Each time, the panel

persisted in its course,reinstating its judgmentwithout seriously con-fronting the significance ofthe cases called to itsattention,” the high courtsaid in an unsigned opin-ion. “Its refusal to do sonecessitates this court’saction today.”But the nation’s court

of last resort does notalways get the last word.The appeals court in

Washington where fourSupreme Court justicestrained, the OregonSupreme Court, and occa-sionally even the SanFrancisco-based federalappeals court given itscome-uppance last week,have in recent years wonbattles with the justices.The lower court judgeshave managed to limit therights of terrorism sus-pects detained atGuantanamo, upholdawards of large punitivedamages against compa-nies and rule in favor ofcriminal defendants,despite the SupremeCourt’s disapproval.The efforts bring com-

plaints from lawyers onthe losing end of thesecases and from some schol-ars that the judges are“thumbing their noses” atthe Supreme Court,although those complaintsusually are expressed inthe more polite legalese ofthe courtroom.

(AP) — The moodamong many U.S. RomanCatholic bishops was cap-tured in a recent speech byArchbishop CharlesChaput of Philadelphia.His talk, called “Catholicsin the Next America,”painted a bleak picture ofa nation increasinglyintolerant of Christianity.“The America emerging

in the next severaldecades is likely to bemuch less friendly toChristian faith than any-thing in our country’spast,” Chaput told stu-dents last week atAssumption College, anAugustinian school inWorcester, Massachusetts.“It’s not a question ofwhen or if it might hap-pen. It’s happening today.”The U.S. Conference of

Catholic Bishops meetsMonday in Baltimore forits national meeting feel-ing under siege: from abroader culture movingtoward accepting gay mar-riage; a White House theyoften condemn as hostileto Catholic teaching; andstate legislatures thatchurch leaders say arechipping away at religiousliberty.Many Catholic academ-

ics, activists and parish-ioners say the bishops areoverreacting. JohnGehring of Faith in PublicLife, an advocacy networkfor more liberal religiousvoters, has argued that ina pluralistic society, gov-ernment officials canchoose policies that differfrom church teachingwithout prejudice being afactor.“Some perspective is

needed here,” Gehring, aCatholic, wrote on hisorganization’s blog.Still, the bishops see

themselves as more andmore on the losing side ofthese disagreements, andthey are taking steps theyhope will protect thechurch.

AYUTTHAYA, Thailand(AP) —Water fowl, monitorlizards and stray dogs havereplaced the throngs oftourists at one of Thailand’sgreatest historical sites.Record flooding has turnedAyutthaya’s ancient tem-ples into islands, and agiant statue of the recliningBuddha appears to floatmiraculously on the lap-ping water.Experts fear that at

least half of the more than200 waterlogged monaster-ies, fortresses and othermonuments in the one-timeroyal capital have beendamaged.“Imagine a thousand

tons of brick and stone rest-ing on soft foundations,with no modern-style pil-ings. We are very worried,”said ChaiyanandBusayarat, director of the

Ayutthaya Historic Park.And as flood waters

recede, some experts areproposing a radical changeto prevent similar disastersin the future: Turn back theclock about four centuriesto emulate the city’s urbanplanners and engineers ofthat time.“We can’t prevent flood-

ing so we have to learn tolive with water again, likethose who createdAyutthaya. Let’s take outthe old city maps,” saidAnek Sihamat, deputydirector-general of the Thaigovernment’s Fine ArtsDepartment.He recommended dig-

ging up old canals thathave been paved over forroads and curbing theurban sprawl and industri-al parks that block the nat-ural runoff of water.

Capital of a powerfulstate for 417 years, seat of33 kings, Ayutthaya hasbeen described as one of thegreatest cities on waterever, with a canal networkthat measured more than85 miles (140 kilometers).Built on the flood plain ofcentral Thailand at the con-fluence of three rivers, itwas inundated annually,but its citizens lived instilt-raised houses andused boats for transport.Water also defended

Ayutthaya, which once heldas many as 1 million resi-dents, until a brutal sack-ing by the Burmese in 1767forced relocation of the cap-ital to Bangkok, 50 miles(80 kilometers) to the south— where the same floodwa-ters that inundatedAyutthaya are now nearingthe inner city.

The surge of water fromthe northern highlands,which began in late Julyand has killed more than520 people, is the worstsince the 1940s, althoughAyutthaya experiencesflooding almost every mon-soon season.In coming weeks,

experts will assess damageand determine what will beneeded to revive and pro-tect the city, which was

added to the UNESCOWorld Heritage list in 1991.Advisers from Venice

and the Netherlands, twoplaces that have grappledwith the challenges ofwatery environments, areprepared to come, whileseveral countries, includingGermany and Japan, haveprovided or promised funds.Anek, the Fine Arts official,estimated that some $20million will be needed.

“Clearly what we hopefor from this experiencewill be a more solid, morethorough flood mitigationplan,” said Tim Curtis, headof the culture unit atUNESCO’s regional officein Bangkok. He said thatAmsterdam’s 19th-centurywater-based defense line —another World Heritagesite — and Venice may beused as models.Witthaya Pewpong, the

Ayutthaya provincial gov-ernor, said a dam has beenproposed to shield the his-toric area while floodingwould be eased by settingaside a large, construction-free area of the nearbycountryside to absorbexcess water.Nevertheless, authori-

ties “know that they willhave to learn to live withwater because it willalways be there,” saidUNESCO cultural expertMontira HorayanguraUnakul.As such, urban planning

should be consistent withAyutthaya’s design as a cityof water, she said.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) —More than 3,000 police and sol-diers backed by armored person-nel carriers raced into Brazil’sbiggest slum before dawnSunday, quickly gaining controlof a shantytown ruled fordecades by a heavily armed druggang.The takeover of the Rocinha

neighborhood was the mostambitious operation yet in aneffort to increase security beforeRio hosts the final matches ofthe 2014 World Cup and the2016 Olympics. Officials arecounting on those events to sig-nal Brazil’s arrival as a globaleconomic, political and culturalpower.The head of state security and

chief architect of Rio’s shanty-town pacification program, JoseMariano Beltrame, called theoperation a major success and abig step toward breaking drugtraffickers’ hold on key parts ofRio.“We have taken over areas

that for 30 or 40 years were inthe hands of … a parallel power,”he said. “This is a very largearea. It’s one of the biggest shan-tytowns in the Americas if notthe world. We’re returning digni-ty and territory to people.”The action in Rocinha is part

of a campaign to drive the druggangs out of the city’s slums,where traffickers often ruledunchallenged. The city of Rio deJaneiro has more than 1,000shantytowns where about one-third of its 6 million people live.

Authorities said it took just90 minutes to seize control ofRocinha. Police simultaneouslyoverran the neighboring Vidigalslum, also previously dominatedby the Friends of Friends druggang.Both slums sit between two of

Rio’s richest neighborhoods, andRocinha’s ramshackle homesclimb a mountainside covered inAtlantic rain forest.Police methodically cleared

alleys and streets on their wayup steep, winding roads.Huey helicopters swarmed

over the slum, crisscrossing thehill and flying low over the jun-gle surrounding the slum, aspolice hunted down suspects whomight have fled into the forest.By evening, police said theymade just four arrests.People peeked from their win-

dows and stared as armored per-sonnel carriers roared up streets.Rifle-toting officers from theBOPE police unit, made famousby two “Elite Squad” films,trained their weapons down nar-row corridors.Down a side alleyway, police

discovered a house they saidbelonged to the No. 2 gangleader, Sandro Luiz de PaulaAmorim, known as “Peixe,” whowas captured by police a fewdays earlier when they encircledRocinha with roadblocks.In stark contrast to the

impoverished shacks around it,Amorim’s three-story home wasoutfitted with a large whirlpoolbath, swimming pool, huge

aquarium, high definition TVand just one book: the ancientChinese military text “Art ofWar.”One resident applauded the

police invasion.“Tell the world we’re not all

drug traffickers! We’re workingpeople and now they’re coming toliberate us,” a man yelled aspolice rolled by.Marisa Costa da Silva, 54,

who runs a small candy shop at

the base of the slum, was lesssure. “Lord knows if there will bewar or peace, or even if thingswill be better if police take thisslum,” she said. “We’ve heardthey’ve been abusive to slum res-idents in other places they’vetaken. I have no idea what toexpect.”Rocinha’s location has made

it one of the most lucrative andlargest drug distribution pointsin the city.

“Rocinha is one of the moststrategically important pointsfor police to control in Rio deJaneiro,” said Paulo Storani, asecurity consultant and formercaptain in the elite BOPE policeunit leading the invasion. “Thepacification of Rocinha meansthat authorities have closed asecurity loop around the areasthat will host most of theOlympic and World Cup activi-ties.”

For the Troy Daily News

An historical marker on theoutside of the Coleman-Allen-Saidleman Building on thenortheast side of the Troy PublicSquare says that during theCivil War, the building served asa military recruitment center for

men enlisting to become Unionsoldiers. An old photographtaken on the morning of Feb. 10,1862, shows men of the 71stOhio Volunteer Infantry stand-ing next to the building just

before they departed for the warfront.

Throughout Troy, there arereminders of that long ago time.In honor of the observance of the150th anniversary of the CivilWar (1861-1865), the TroyHistorical Society has plannedseveral events to commemorate

Dear Heloise: I am yournewest fan! I am 42 and havenever really cooked. My hus-band is an amazing house-cleaner, so I don’t have toworry about that much, either.But I have recently started

COOKING and was goingthrough old cookbooks. I foundtwo old Heloise books,“Kitchen Hints” and “AllAround the House,” from the’60s! (Heloise here: These weremy mother’s books.) I receivedthese 13 years ago from mymother-in-law when she movedfrom Austin, Texas, to Denverand was downsizing every-

thing.It has been such a delight

to read these books for thefirst time. I really appreciateeverything our mothers andgrandmothers did with no-stick cooking spray, zipper-lockbags and all the rest! I can’t

wait to devour your website aswell.I have been sharing the fun

tips and stories with my moth-er and my friends. — MelanieS. in San AntonioMelanie, thanks for being a

“new” fan! My mother’s oldbooks are a fun read, andmany of the hints are stillvalid today. However, some ofthe hints may no longer workor are no longer safe. Howabout picking up my latestbook, “Handy Household HintsFrom Heloise”? You should beable to find it in your localbookstore (call first), order it

online or visitwww.Heloise.com to obtain acopy. — Heloise

FAST FACTSDear Readers: Here are

some other uses for your oldbaby bathtubs:* Take with you on a camp-

ing trip and use to wash dish-es.* When bringing outside

plants in from the cold, placethem inside one.* Fill with water and use to

soak your feet.* Use to soak clothes.* Use outside to bathe pets.— Heloise

SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

Dear Annie: I am a 44-year-oldsingle guy with no kids, nevermarried. I look younger than myage and could probably pass for34.I recently met this beautiful girl

who is a senior in college. Sheseemed very nice and is probably21 or 22 years old. I thought thatmaybe the next time I see her, Iwould ask her out on a date.Is this a crazy idea? Am I way

too old for this woman? If so, whatwould be the right age range forme? I must say again, this womanis stunning. — R.J.

Dear R.J.: Yes, 22-year-oldsoften are stunning. That loud sighyou hear is from all the 40-year-old women who wonder why a 44-year-old man isn't looking atthem. But to answer your ques-tions, anyone over 18 is fair game,although your age gap adds a cer-tain creepiness factor. A 44-year-old man is more likely to find anappropriate mate if he looks forwomen over 30. If you want to askthis girl out, go right ahead, butdon't lie about your age, and don'tbe surprised if she says no.

Dear Annie: My fiance and Ihave been together for three yearsand plan to be married next year.My problem is that he still com-municates with one of his ex-girl-friends. This would not be such abig deal, but she is someone withwhom he has cheated in the past.I've told him that the friendship

bothers me, and he says he is alsofriends with her husband, andthat is why they keep in contact.Her husband knows nothing abouthis wife's previous affair with myfiance. Should I just let thisfriendship continue, or am I rightto want it to end? Am I being care-ful or just insecure? — Confused

Dear Confused: We under-stand why this particular womanwould bother you. If your fiance isbeing honest about the nature ofthe relationship, his contactshould be primarily through thehusband, and he shouldn't mind ifyou are part of every conversation,email or text involving the ex. Ifhe refuses or if you notice any-thing amiss, tell him the friend-ship is over. If he wants to cheat,he will find a way, but you don'thave to make it easy for him.

Dear Annie: I read the letterfrom "A Formerly Trusting Wife,"who has been married to "Bill" for43 years. She failed to listen toher friends who tried to warn herthat Bill was having a relation-ship with a co-worker.I was once there, but not as the

wife. I was the cheating husband.I was the one who fell from grace.I led a charmed life, graduatedwith honors, made the dean's list,became an Air Force officer andthe president of a local civicorganization and the town's LittleLeague. I was respected at mychurch and often counseled youngmen who were about to dishonortheir marriage vows. And thenquite suddenly, I became a liarand a cheat.I lost my family, the respect of

my children, my honor and mydignity. My pastor asked me toresign from the church, I wasshunned by church members, andworst of all, I saw my son and mydaughter cry over the heartache Icaused.The woman who was my part-

ner in this love affair has longsince moved on to anotherman. I live a lonely life 100 milesaway from my former family andseldom see my kids or grandchil-dren.I wish there were a way to

restart my life. My message to Billis to stay with your family, learnto love your wife again, make ither birthday each and every day,and your reward will be evident inthe coming years. — Frank

Dear Frank: Thank you forsharing your sad story. Hopefully,it will help someone else before heor she makes the same mistake.Annie's Mailbox is written by

Monday, Nov. 14, 2011There are numerous ways for you toachieve success in the year ahead,but perhaps your best possibilitieswill come through undertakingswhere you are free to call all theshots yourself. Partnerships couldlimit your possibilities.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Theinterests of your listeners should beconsidered before bringing up a sub-ject that could easily bore them todeath. If you want to be popular, keepconversations focused on them.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) —If you’re smart, you’ll take care of allof your obligations first thing in themorning.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) —Don’t let one small negative thoughtblock all of your positive alternativestoday. Generally speaking, there aretwo sides to every issue. Choose well.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Un-less you are completely honest aboutyour limitations, there is a stronglikelihood you will take on far morethan you can handle today and endup with a total meltdown.PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Don’tallow someone whose views opposeyours to coerce you into a debatetoday. This person wants to do so inhopes that you’ll make a fool of your-self. Don’t bite.ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Earlysuccesses might spur you on, buttake care not to overdo. You couldrun out of steam right in the middleof a huge undertaking.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) —Rarely do you hesitate to expressyour opinions, but if what you’rethinking becomes emotional, you hadbetter keep your thoughts to your-self.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Unlessyou handle commercial involvementsin a sound manner today, you couldquickly lose control of good businesspractices and get in way over yourhead.CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Becareful not to put yourself in a posi-tion of being at the mercy of individ-uals who have caused you discomfortin the past. You could be asking for arepeat performance.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Owing tocertain responsibilities you failed totake care of when you should have,you may be faced with severe limita-tions today on handling a critical sit-uation that now needs tending.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — If thereis someone in a social get-togetherwith whom you have a bone to pick,keep your discomfort to yourself. Anycomments you make would put adamper on the entire group.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — The onlyway you will achieve all of your ob-jectives today is to roll up yoursleeves and keep your nose to thegrindstone.COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEA-TURE SYNDICATE, INC.

TODAY IN HISTORY

(AP) — Today is Monday,Nov. 14, the 318th day of 2011.There are 47 days left in theyear.

Today’s Highlightin History:

On Nov. 14, 1851, HermanMelville’s novel “Moby-DickOr, The Whale” was first pub-lished in the United States.

On this date:• In 1881, Charles J. Guiteau

went on trial for assassinatingPresident James A. Garfield.(Guiteau was convicted and

hanged the following year.)• In 1889, inspired by Jules

Verne, NewYork World reporterNellie Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane)set out to travel around the worldin less than 80 days. (She madethe trip in 72 days.) JawarharlalNehru (juh-wah-hahr-LAHL’ NAY’-roo), the first prime minister ofindependent India, was born.

• In 1910, Eugene B. Elybecame the first aviator to takeoff from a ship as his Curtisspusher rolled off a sloping plat-form on the deck of the scout

cruiser USS Birmingham offHampton Roads, Va.

• In 1922, the BritishBroadcasting Corporation beganits domestic radio service.

• In 1940, during World WarII, German planes destroyedmost of the English town ofCoventry.

• Today’s Birthdays:Former U.N. Secretary-GeneralBoutros Boutros-Ghali is 89.Actress Kathleen Hughes is 83.Former NASA astronaut FredHaise is 78.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) —The Defense Department’sattempt to go green at remoteradar locations in Alaska byreplacing diesel generators withwind turbines was poorly plannedand delays could cost millions,according to an audit by thedepartment’s inspector general.A test wind turbine construct-

ed in 2008 at remote Tin Citynorthwest of Nome was builtwithout the benefit of a 12-monthwind study. As of July it was pro-ducing “sporadic, unusablepower,” according to the audit,which focuses on three projectsthat followed.The Air Force in 2009, flush

with economic stimulus money,awarded contracts for wind tur-bines at three other remoteAlaska locations — CapeNewenham and Cape Romanzofin southwest Alaska and CapeLisburne in northwest Alaska —at a cost of $4.7 million each.Theyhave not been constructed.Stimulus money was supposed

to go for “shovel ready” projectsand the wind turbines were not,the audit said.

The contracts were signedwithout data from the Tin Cityturbine and before adequate windstudies were performed, the auditsaid. They lacked documentationthat they would be more costeffective than diesel power,according to the audit, and theDefense Department did notensure that the projects wereselected appropriately for stimu-lus funding.Auditors concluded each would

rack up an estimated $1 millionin cost overruns based on 2012construction costs.The audit faults the 611th

Civil Engineering Squadronbased at Joint Base ElmendorfRichardson in Anchorage.Elmendorf engineers told audi-tors that multiple turnovers inproject managers and lost projectfiles contributed to mistakes. AirForce officials elaborated on thatThursday in an e-mail response toquestions.Deployments overseas affected

the engineering workload of thosewho remained, as did unexpectedturnover in project management.Alaska’s short construction sea-

son added to the challenge.“These projects are complex

and challenging, both technicallyand in terms of aligning construc-tion seasons and complex supply-chain constraints,” said Lt. Col.Eric Hoversten, former command-er 611th CES and current deputycommander 611th Air SupportGroup.He said the Air Force contin-

ues to learn vital lessons that willbenefit future initiatives and theAlaska projects will diversify itsenergy portfolio to sustainablesources.“The projects still show a life-

cycle cost savings — paybackwhich will result in lower energycosts and dollar savings in thefuture,” he said.

The Tin City wind turbine wascompleted in October 2008 by theAir Force as a test to determineenergy savings.Completing a wind study, the

audit said, would have providedElmendorf engineers with infor-mation necessary to determinethe best location for the Tin Citywind turbine. However, no windtest was done and it was built inan area with turbulent winds andproduces sporadic, unusablepower, engineers told auditors.Contracting personnel at

Elmendorf in August 2009 award-ed a $485,000 contract modifica-tion at Tin City to correct powerintegration issues. The Air Forceinstalled an uninterrupted powersupply system to aid in sustaining

continuous power to critical com-ponents and upgrades to the digi-tal controls system.The Air Force said in its e-mail

response the system still is notoperating and continues to expe-rience electrical problemsbelieved to be caused by moisturein critical controls circuitry. TheAir Force is working to makerepairs.The three additional wind tur-

bines were selected for RecoveryAct funding in 2009.The economic stimulus money

was aimed at creating new jobs,preserving existing ones andencouraging economic develop-ment.The law, auditors noted,

required prudent managementbut included an expectation thatappropriated funds would bespent quickly.The Defense Department

received about $7.16 billion instimulus money, auditors said,including $120 million directedtoward military energy conserva-tion. Most of the Air Force sharefor energy conservation was des-ignated for the Alaska radar sites.

TOKYO (AP) — Japan’s economysurged 6 percent in the latest quarter ina bounce back from the earthquake andtsunami disaster that is unlikely to besustained amid headwinds from Europe’sdebt crisis.The Cabinet Office’s real gross domes-

tic product report Monday marks thefirst expansion for the world’s No. 3 econ-omy in four quarters. The result was inline with market forecasts, includingKyodo News agency’s projection of 6.2percent annualized growth for the July-September quarter.The March 11 earthquake and tsuna-

mi killed thousands of people and wipedout large swathes of Japan’s northeast-ern coast. The disasters damaged manyfactories in the region, causing severeshortages of parts and components formanufacturers across the country,including automakers.The tsunami also crippled a nuclear

power plant, adding to the difficultiesfaced by businesses and households.Since then, the country has steadily

restored its factories, helping the econo-

my rebound despite the threats of afinancial crisis in Europe, slowing globaleconomy and a strong yen.The Cabinet Office said the annual-

ized figure translates to GDP growth of1.5 percent from the previous quarter.GDP is a measure of the value of allgoods and services produced domestical-ly.Consumer spending, which accounts

for some 60 percent of the economy,climbed 1 percent from the previousquarter. Capital investment by compa-nies rose 1.1 percent.Analysts, however, say that the strong

third quarter numbers are unlikely tolast.Credit Suisse economist Hiromichi

Shirakawa said Japan had benefitedfrom a sharp increase in exports andindustrial production into the early sum-mer. But the economy has “already lostupward momentum since August,” hesaid in a report last week.He expects Japan’s economy to weak-

en in coming months and forecasts GDPto contract in the fourth quarter.

Japan’s economy risesout of earthquake slump

The projects still show a life-cyclecost savings — payback which will

result in lower energy costs and dollarsavings in the future.

The heart, veins and bloodvessels are the main parts ofthe cardiovascular system.Yourheart is a strong muscularpump that works day and nightto send blood around yourentire body.

The circulatory system is agroup of organs that carriesnutrients, oxygen and otherimportant materials to all thecells in your body.Your blood circulates throughout

your body, like a river, throughblood vessels attached to yourheart. Those that carry blood awayfrom your heart are called arteries,and the ones that carry bloodback to your heart are call veins.

Your heart is divided into twohalves, call chambers. The topchamber, called the atrium, col-lects blood from the veins. Thebottom chamber, called the ventri-cle, pumps blood into the arteries,helping to refuel your body.

When you take a deep breath,the air travels directly to yourlungs. Blood is pumped from yourheart to your lungs, and the oxy-gen (from the breath you just took)mixes with it.

The blood then travels to yourheart, where it is pumped backthrough your body, delivering oxy-gen and nutrients to your cellswhile fighting germs and removingcarbon dioxide and waste.

Each time your heart beats, itheart fills with blood. It tightensand releases, pushing the bloodout.When your heart makes thismovement, it’s called a contrac-tion. Make a fist with your handand squeeze it, release andsqueeze again. This is a similarmotion to the one your heartmakes.

Just like any other machine, theheart can become broken or needto be fixed. That’s why it’s impor-tant to know how your heartworks; so you can do your partto keep it healthy and strong.

Do you ever feel your heartracing or feel out of breath?This is your body signalingthat it needs more oxygen.The heart pumps faster tosupply your body with whatit needs. Kids ages 6-15 havea normal resting heart rate of70-100 beats per minute.

DDIIDD YYOOUU KKNNOOWW??It takes less than 60 seconds for

your heart to pump blood to everycell in the body.

Doctors say that kids should bephysically active for at least 60minutes a day

In order to get the full benefits ofexercise, move until you break asweat.

Battle for the northCINCINNATI (AP) — Andy

Dalton saw all of it coming,except for that final throw.Cornerback William Gay

anticipated the rookie quarter-back’s last pass and stepped infront for a game-clinching inter-ception Sunday as thePittsburgh Steelers held on fora 24-17 victory over theCincinnati Bengals, who willremember that last play for along time.“They take chances,” Dalton

said. “They bite on things andtry to jump routes. On that playthey did, and it worked forthem.”

It was a big moment for thesurprising Bengals (6-3), whohad their first sellout at PaulBrown Stadium in a year albeitwith thousands of Steelers fansfilling out the crowd. It was achance to see how they measureup against the AFC North’s bestafter half a season of playing alot of non-division also-rans.They were right there with

the defending AFC championSteelers (7-3) until the fourthquarter, when Pittsburgh closedit out with a pair of intercep-tions.“We went toe-to-toe with

them,” rookie receiver A.J.

Green said. “They have a greatdefense, but we belong in thatleague.”The Bengals came into the

game with a five-game winningstreak. They were facing adefense that had only two inter-ceptions and two fumble recov-eries all season, a stunninglysmall statistic for a defense thatprides itself on getting the ball.They got it twice when it

mattered most.Rashard Mendenhall’s 9-

yard run put the Steelers’ up24-17 late in the third quarter,leaving it to the defense to it

Kahne bests Edwards, Stewart; wins PhoenixAVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) —

While Carl Edwards and TonyStewart have gone round-for-round in their race for the SprintCup title, Kasey Kahne has qui-etly turned his performance up anotch outside of the champi-onship spotlight.Kahne’s performance the last

nine weeks has trailed only thetwo title contenders, and onSunday, he finally got a win toshow for his efforts.Kahne snapped an 81-race

winless streak with his victoryat Phoenix InternationalRaceway, where Edwards andStewart finished second andthird to keep the title race tightheaded into next weekend’s sea-son finale.“If I’m in a racecar, I want to

do the best that I can,” Kahnesaid, crediting crew chief KennyFrancis for giving him strongToyotas that have allowed him“to perform with and run withCarl and Tony, who have been

probably the two best.”They’ve been the only two

drivers better than Kahne, andone of them will officially unseatfive-time defending NASCARchampion Jimmie Johnson nextSunday at Homestead.Edwards will take a three-

point lead over Stewart into the36th and final race of the season,marking the closest champi-onship battle since the Chase forthe Sprint Cup championshipformat made its debut in 2004.

The two were nearly giddydiscussing the title race as theysat side-by-side in the post-racenews conference.“As far as I’m concerned, it’s a

dead heat going in there,” saidStewart. “I want to go toHomestead tomorrow and start.I want tomorrow to be Friday.I’m pumped up, I’m excitedabout it and ready to go.”So was Edwards.

— John Skelton threw a 5-yard TD pass to EarlyDoucet with 1:53 left to liftArizona.

Michael Vick had anoth-er so-so performance andthe Eagles (3-6) blew afourth-quarter lead for thefifth time this season.

Starting for the injuredKevin Kolb, Skelton threwthree touchdown passes tolead the Cardinals (3-6).Larry Fitzgerald had twoTD catches and made asensational, over-the-shoulder diving catch to setup the go-ahead score.

The defending NFCEast champion Eagles wereexpected to be Super Bowlcontenders after a slew ofbig-name acquisitions inthe offseason. Instead,they’ve lost seven of theirpast eight home games.BRONCOS 17,CHIEFS 10KANSAS CITY, Mo. —

Tim Tebow hit Eric Deckeron a 56-yard touchdownpass, one of his two comple-tions in the game, to liftDenver.

Denver (4-5) playedalmost the entire gamewithout leading rushersWillis McGahee andKnowshon Moreno.McGahee hurt his ham-string and Moreno wentdown with a knee injury inthe first quarter.

Lance Ball ran for 96yards and Tebow added 44yards and a touchdown onthe ground, helping theBroncos win for the thirdtime in four games with theformer Heisman Trophywinner under center.

Matt Cassel was 13 of 28for 93 yards and a touch-down for Kansas City (4-5),which followed up a 31-3loss to previously winlessMiami with another miser-able showing at home.SAINTS 26,FALCONS 23ATLANTA — John

Kasay kicked a 26-yardfield goal in overtime togive the New OrleansSaints a 26-23 victory overAtlanta after Falcons coachMike Smith decided to gofor it on fourth down deepin his own territorySunday.

The Falcons (5-4) ralliedfrom a 10-point deficit inthe fourth quarter, tying iton Matt Bryant’s 27-yardfield goal on the final playof regulation.

In overtime, Atlantaappeared to pick up a firstdown on a pass to MikeCox, but he was ruled justshort after referee Terry

McAuley looked at thereplay. Then, stunningly,Smith decided to go for it onfourth down from his own29.

Manning completed apair of long fourth-downpasses and got the Giants(6-3) down to the 10, but onfourth-and-2 with 1:51 left,Smith made a leapingright-handed smack of theball.

In a game between divi-sion leaders, the 49ers (8-1)didn’t rely on Frank Gore,whose franchise-recordstreak of five straightgameswith 100 yards rush-ing ended with a kneeinjury.BEARS 37,LIONS 13CHICAGO — Charles

Tillman and Major Wrightreturned interceptions fortouchdowns early in thethird quarter, and Chicagopicked off MatthewStafford four times.

in the fourth quarter.SEAHAWKS 22,RAVENS 17SEATTLE — Steven

Brownsgreat job of placing it forDawson. However, the 13-year veteran’s timing wasthrown off and Dawsonmissed the chip shot.

“It’s on me,” Pontbriandsaid. “My fault. It’s my job toget the ball back there andit didn’t get there. On thoseplays, I’m always upsidedown and never see a thing.From my point of view,everything was normal. Butas soon as it came out, Iknew something waswrong. It looked like a snapI had never snappedbefore.”

It was an especiallypainful loss for first-yearBrowns coach Pat Shurmur,who spent the previous twoseasons as the Rams offen-sive coordinator. Followingthe game, Shurmur wasnoticeably upset, mostlybecause of his young team’scostly mistakes.

“What can I say?”Shurmur said. “We were inposition to win. I’m disap-pointed we lost. It hasn’tsunk in enough to go

through my head yet. I’vegot a thick head.”

Stephen Jackson rushedfor 128 yards for St. Louis(2-7), which got a TD passfrom quarterback SamBradford and two fieldgoals by Josh Brown.

As Dawson lined up forhis final kick, the Rams,who had five players sus-tain game-ending injuries,were already planning theirstrategy for a last drive.

They didn’t realize theywere in Cleveland, wherethe beleaguered Brownshave a habit of horrid loss-es.

“I thought this stuff onlyhappened to the Rams,”Jackson joked. “I didn’tthink it happened to otherteams.”

Brown’s 34-yard fieldgoal gave the Rams a 13-12lead with 7:42 remaining.That score was set up by afumble by Browns returnspecialist Josh Cribbs, whowas stripped trying to getextra yards on a puntreturn by Rams linebackerDavid Nixon.

Aussie Openfrom the bunker on the finalhole, Chalmers closed witha 3-under 69 to put hisname on the StonehavenCup trophy for the secondtime.

Woods now has gone twofull years since his last winat the Australian Masters,yet he headed south toRoyal Melbourne for thePresidents Cup with reasonfor optimism.

Two bad tee shots slowedhis charge, one of them aquestionable decision. Yetthere also was a birdie onthe second-toughest hole tokeep alive his hopes, a chip-in for eagle on the 14th holewhen nothing less wouldsuffice, and three solidrounds that gave him hisfirst real chance of winningin nearly a year.

Woods closed with a 5-under 67 and finished alonein third. It was his highestfinish since a playoff losslast December to GraemeMcDowell at the ChevronWorld Challenge, and hisbest result against a fullfield since his last win inMelbourne.

“I felt great,”Woods said.“It’s nice to finally behealthy again.”

He has talked about hishealth a lot the last year,though it cannot be writtenoff as an excuse. Woodsmissed most of the summerwhile letting injuries to his

left leg fully heal, whichmade him ineligible to playonce he was feeling strong.This was only his secondtournament in the lastthree months, and heshowed plenty of progress.

For the first time sincethe Masters, when he wastied for the lead at the turnon Sunday until he stalledand tied for fourth, hisname on the leaderboardmeant something.

“It’s been since Augusta,I had the lead atAugusta onSunday, that’s the last timeI’ve been in that spot,”Woods said. “It’s been a longtime. Unfortunately Ihaven’t played a lot of tour-naments in between. But itwas great to be out there. Ihad a chance.Unfortunately, I didn’t postthe number I wanted topost.”

Chalmers kept his witsabout him.

He could hear the mas-sive cheer when Woodschipped in for eagle fromabout 15 feet off the green,loud enough to rattle him.But he realized that he stillhad the short 13th the oneWoods bungled and two par5s.

“I was aware of whatTiger was doing, but I wasalso aware that I had somebirdie holes coming up,”Chalmers said. “I thoughtthe advantage was withsomeone still out on the golfcourse.”



Bengalsfinish it off. First, line-backer Lawrence Timmonspicked off a deflected pass,ending a drive at thePittsburgh 33. Gay pulledoff the clincher, stepping infront of Jerome Simpson foran interception at the 19-yard line with 2:27 left.

Gay had allowedBaltimore’s Torrey Smith toget behind him for a 26-yard touchdown catch with8 seconds left in the Ravens’23-20 win at Pittsburghlast Sunday. It wasn’t goingto happen again.

Dalton handled most ofwhat Steelers defensivecoordinator Dick LeBeauthrew at him until the end.He had two more touch-down passes, giving him 14overall the most by a rookiequarterback in his firstnine games since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970. Hewasn’t sacked even thoughthe Steelers blitzed himevery way they could.

“I felt like we had a real-ly good grasp on what theywere doing,” said Dalton,who was 15 of 30 for 170yards with two touchdowns.“Even with all the move-ments and shifts that theywere doing, I still thoughtwe had a good feel. They didthrow some things at us,but I thought we adjustedwell and handled it.”

Until the fourth quarter.Dalton didn’t have top

receiver A.J. Green on thefield for those pivotalmoments. Green, who leadsall rookie NFL receivers,jarred his right knee whenhe landed awkwardly on a36-yard touchdown in thesecond quarter.

Green returned on thenext series, but was heldout as a precaution after hisknee tightened at halftime.

“I just came downstraight-legged and myknee buckled,” Green said.“At halftime when I came inand sat down, it got realstiff. I couldn’t really getany movement.”

Ben Roethlisberger was21 of 33 for 245 yards withone touchdown and adeflected interception. Hewas sacked five times,matching his season high.

Roethlisberger foundJerricho Cotchery uncov-ered in the end zone for a16-yard score that got thou-sands of Terrible Towelswaving. It was the fifthtime in the last six gamesthat the Steelers reachedthe end zone on their open-ing possession.

Mendenhall ran 2 yardsfor a 14-0 lead on theSteelers’ next possession.At that point, Pittsburghhad a 132-8 advantage inyards.

Nascar“This is going to be a

battle. I truly believe it’sgoing to be a good race,”Edwards said. “That placeis magical for us. I reallyenjoy going there. I hopeit comes down to thefastest guy winning therace.”

Stewart, winner of fourChase races this season,dominated Sunday atPhoenix and led 160 ofthe 312 laps. But he hadto pit for gas with 18 lapsremaining, and wasforced to work his wayback to the front. Heneeded a late pass of JeffBurton to finish third,right behind Edwards.

“I wasn’t going to givehim the spot. He earned itand he got it,” Burtonsaid.

It was a critical pass,as it picked up anotherpoint for Stewart andkept his deficit at threepoints.

“We had an awesomeday. We came up twospots shy. I don’t knowhow you could have askedfor a better day,” he said.“We led the most laps, wewere on the same pace wewere last week, just tohave a perfect day. Justfought as hard as wecould all day.”

Edwards did, too,

despite having to chaseStewart most of the race.He’s not faltered oncewith the two-time cham-pion bearing down onhim, and he’ll go toHomestead with his firstCup championship inreach.

Edwards is a two-timeHomestead winner anddrives for Roush FenwayRacing, which has wonseven of the last nineraces at Homestead.Stewart, trying to becomethe first owner/driversince Alan Kulwicki in1992 to win the champi-onship, won the first twoCup races at Homesteadin 1999 and 2000.

“It’s the best pointsbattle I’ve been a part ofat this level, so it’s fun forme,” Edwards said. “I stilldon’t understand whywe’re both running sogood. It’s pretty neat.Seems like subconscious-ly we’re both able to digdown and our teams areable to give us what weneed and everybody hasbeen performing at a highlevel.

“It’s been neat thatthis battle has broughtout the best in us.”

Sunday officiallymarked the end ofJohnson’s reign: He fin-ished 14th and was math-

ematically eliminatedfrom title contention.

“It’s been one hell of arun,” he posted on Twittershortly after the race.

Kahne, meanwhile,won for the first timesince Atlanta in 2009, andit comes in his next-to-last race with Red BullRacing. He’s moving toHendrick Motorsportsnext season, and Red Bullis pulling out of NASCAR.

His win was only thesecond for Red Bull,which came intoNASCAR in 2007 amidmuch fanfare but neverdelivered.

Kahne, who won in abrand new car, said it’s ashame Red Bull is leav-

ing.“I wouldn’t say there’s

anyone out there that’sbuilding better cars atthis time. The Red Bullguys are doing an awe-some job and they haven’tgiven up,” he said. “It’stough to hear it’s shuttingdown in eight days. Overthe last three months, youhave one of the top fivecars in NASCAR shuttingdown and that’s crazy.”

Burton finished fourthand was followed by RyanNewman.

AJ Allmendinger wassixth, and DavidReutimann, told twoweeks ago he was losinghis job at Michael WaltripRacing, was seventh.
