ANKA Behavioral HealthServices, Inc., the companyformerly hoping to open a 24-bed mental health residentialcare facility in Ukiah’s west-side, has withdrawn its appli-cation to the city Departmentof Planning and CommunityDevelopment for the neededpermits and variance.

According to DepartmentDirector Charley Stump, thecity received a letter Mondayfrom the Concord-basedhealthcare corporation for-mally withdrawing its appli-cation, filed in October 2006,to open the facility at 101 S.Hortense St.

The building -- the formersite of the Silver Bircheselderly care home -- is locatedin a single-family residentialzoning area, which allows forsix beds without a use permit.According to Stump, zoningallows a maximum of 12 bedswith a use permit. Anythingabove 12 requires a variance.

The Ukiah PlanningCommission was scheduled tohear the application, whichalso requested an exception tothe city’s required number ofon-site parking spaces, at itsJune 13 meeting after it waspostponed, at ANKA’srequest, from meetings inApril and May.

Fred Schneiter, who liveskitty-corner from the pro-posed site, said he and other

neighbors were prepared tofight ANKA’s plan at themeetings.

“There’s so many people inthis neighborhood who areintelligent, articulate andorganized, and the size of theopposition just kept gettinglarger and larger,” Schneitersaid. “It could have been greattheater.”

According to Schneiter,many in the neighborhood feltthe 24-bed crisis center wasnot compatible with theirquiet, residential streets.

Charles Mitchell was a

retired mill worker who hadbecome involved in local pol-itics. He had announced hisintention to run for tribal chiefof the Coyote Valley Band ofPomo Indians in the daysbefore his death.

More than 100 people -- many ofthem veterans of war -- spent theirWednesday afternoon at a luncheonhonoring the men and women whohave served their country.

Chili relleno casserole, Mexicanfruit salad, homemade salsa with gua-camole and chips, and blackberrycobbler made for a tasty menu, butit’s safe to say the majority of thosesitting at the tables inside the UkiahSenior Center were there for thecamaraderie.

George Kennedy, who fought inboth World War II and the KoreanWar during his 20 years of service inthe Army infantry, was one of them.

“It was good times and bad times,”Kennedy said, recalling his war days.

The bad times included seeing hisfriends killed, he said.

The good times were those spentoff the front lines.

“A good time was when you got

off the front lines and went back andhad a couple of beers. Everything wasfunny when you got back there,”Kennedy said, referring to the restarea. “Everything is serious whenpeople are shooting at you,” he said.

Pointing to a scar on his left fore-arm, Kennedy said: “When I got thisI didn’t know whether to cry for mymother or wet my pants; I did both,”he said, noting he was just 20 yearsold when, during WWII, he was hitby a piece of shrapnel while fightingin the Philippines.

“I didn’t get a scratch in Korea; Iwas lucky,” he added.

Asked if he had any advice for sol-diers today, Kennedy said: “It’s a dif-ferent war now. I don’t like it. We hada mission ... it doesn’t seem like (theU.S.) does now.”

Irene Young, who served in thewomen’s Army Corps -- the onlyfemale veteran at Wednesday’s lun-cheon -- doesn’t agree with the war inIraq either.

“WWII was different. We had tostop Hitler. ... When the Japaneseattacked we had to defend ourselves.I don’t think we were threatened bythis war in Iraq. I think it’s a tragedy.I don’t really believe in war. I thinkwe should find other ways to solveour problems,” said Young, who dur-ing her time of service worked inGeorgia as a shipping officer, in NewYork City in recruiting, and in Floridaas a commander, where she was incharge of the women on the base.“The role of women in WWII was torelieve the men ... do the desk jobs,”she said.

Floyd Knox, who earned sevenmedals during his time of service inthe Vietnam War -- including a PurpleHeart and a Bronze Star for valor --did not wish to discuss how he did so,and instead pointed to a shadow boxhousing numerous medals belongingto Kennedy, sitting on a table coveredwith other war memorabilia.

Morey McCloud, who served inthe Army Air Corps, was happy totalk about his three-and-a-half-yearstay in a prisoner of war camp duringWWII, but that’s not to say it wastime easily spent.

“They didn’t feed us enough andthey beat on us constantly,” he said.“They were pretty brutal and theyworked us 18-hour days,” he said,noting work included chipping steel,repairing automobiles and putting riv-ets on a ship. “We did such a lousyjob on it that it (the ship) sank whenthey launched it,” the upbeatMcCloud said, with a chuckle.

Asked what he did while in theNavy during WWII, Bill Traina said:“Nothing. I kid you not. I went toschool there the whole time. I enlistedas an aviation mechanic, then went toofficer candidate school, and when Iwas done, the war was over.”

Bush says Iraq war is center of anti-terrorfight, citing declassified intelligence

NEW LONDON, Conn. (AP) — President Bush portrayedthe Iraq war as a battle between the U.S. and al-Qaida onWednesday and shared nuggets of intelligence to contendOsama bin Laden was setting up a terrorist cell in Iraq to striketargets in America.

Bush, who faces a public weary of war and is at odds withDemocrats in Congress over funding troops, said that while theSept. 11 attacks occurred in 2001, Americans still face a majorthreat from terrorists.

“In the minds of al-Qaida leaders, 9/11 was just a down pay-ment on violence yet to come,” Bush said during a commence-ment speech at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy in which hedefended his decision to order a troop buildup in Iraq. “It istempting to believe that the calm here at home after 9/11 meansthat the danger to our country has passed.”

“Here in America, we are living in the eye of a storm,” hesaid. “All around us, dangerous winds are swirling and thesewinds could reach our shores at any moment.”

Critics of the war insist that U.S. troops are in the middle offights among Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds.

Iraqis say they found body of U.S. soldier held by al-Qaida

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi police dragged a body from theEuphrates River on Wednesday and said it was one of threeAmerican soldiers abducted in an ambush claimed by al-Qaida.The U.S. military has yet to identify the victim and pressedahead with its search through sweltering flatlands south ofBaghdad.

According to a U.S. military official, a second body wasfound in the area near where the first body was discovered. Theofficial, who requested anonymity because the information hasnot yet been released, said there was no indication yet whetherthe body was another of the three missing soldiers.

American forces also disclosed nine more deaths, raising to20 the number of U.S. troops killed in four days.

The spike in American deaths and the discovery of the bod-ies come at a difficult moment for Washington, where the Bushadministration and Congress are struggling to agree on fundingfor the unpopular war. The search for the captured soldiers hasalso taken thousands of troops out of the pool of forces for theBaghdad security crackdown.

Nationwide at least 104 people were killed in sectarian vio-lence or found dead Wednesday, including 32 who perished insuicide bombings. One bombing took place 60 miles west of thecapital, the other in a city to the east near the Iranian border.

Senate votes to cut number of foreignworkers who could come to U.S. on visas

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate voted Wednesday toslash the number of foreign workers who could come to theU.S. on temporary visas as part of a broad bipartisan immigra-tion bill. A new guest worker program would be capped at200,000 a year under the proposal, which passed 74-24 over

strong opposition by the Bush administration.Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez said the change, pro-

posed by Sen. Jeff Bingaman, D-N.M., would interfere with a“central component” of the White House-backed immigrationmeasure. That plan provided for 400,000 worker visas annual-ly, plus an option to increase that number to 600,000 if marketconditions demand it.

“The Bingaman amendment would eliminate this criticalflexibility and cut the size of the temporary worker program inhalf,” Gutierrez said in a statement.

His comments came as the administration urged the Senateto approve the immigration legislation despite fresh criticismfrom presidential hopefuls and lawmakers in both parties.

Ex-liaison for Justice Dept. says officialknew more about firings than he let on

WASHINGTON (AP) — Alberto Gonzales’ deputy knewmore about the firings of U.S. attorneys than he let on to con-gressional investigators, Gonzales’ former White House liaisonsaid Wednesday in an extraordinary House hearing. She alsosaid she herself had crossed legal lines.

Testifying under court-approved immunity, 33-year-oldMonica Goodling acknowledged that she had given too muchconsideration to whether candidates for jobs as career prosecu-tors were Republicans or Democrats.

“You crossed the line on civil service laws, is that right?”asked Rep. Bobby Scott, D-Va.

“I believe I crossed the lines,” Goodling replied. “But I did-n’t mean to.”

Goodling, 33, testified at a hearing of the House JudiciaryCommittee in a room packed with so many photographers thatpanel chairman John Conyers spent several minutes shooingthem away from her witness table.

Clinton campaign memo argues againstcompeting in Iowa Democratic caucus

NEW YORK (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton’s deputycampaign manager wrote a memo this week urging theDemocratic front-runner to bypass next year’s Iowa caucuses tofocus time and money on New Hampshire, South Carolina andseveral large states hosting primaries next Feb. 5.

The memo from deputy campaign manager Mike Henryemerged days after a Des Moines Sunday Register poll of like-ly caucus goers showed Clinton trailing rivals John Edwardsand Barack Obama in Iowa, which is to hold the first votingcontests Jan. 14, 2008.

“I believe we need a new approach to winning theDemocratic nomination,” Henry wrote. “This approachinvolves shifting the focus away from Iowa and running a cam-paign that is more focused on other early primary states andwinning this new national primary.”

All the major presidential campaigns have been struggling toadapt to next year’s vastly accelerated campaign calendar,which such states as California and New York holding pri-maries within weeks of traditional early powerhouses Iowa andNew Hampshire. In his memo, Henry argued that winning Iowawould require a huge cash investment that could cripple thecampaign as it moved into the big states.

Even so, there was no indication Wednesday that Henry’sadvice would be heeded. Campaign spokesman HowardWolfson said the candidate and her top advisers were commit-ted to campaigning in Iowa and Henry’s views were not sharedby others in the campaign.

Associated PressCORCORAN — Cult

leader Charles Manson wasdenied parole Wednesday, the11th time since 1978 that hewas ordered to continue serv-ing life sentences for a mur-derous rampage in LosAngeles County in 1969.

Manson, 72, did not attendor send a representative to theproceeding before the Boardof Parole Hearings atCorcoran State Prison.

He previously told a prisoncounselor that he refuses toparticipate because he consid-ers himself a “prisoner of thepolitical system,” said LosAngeles County Deputy Dis-trict Attorney PatrickSequeira, who attended thehearing.

The board voted to denyManson parole for five years,the maximum allowed by law.Manson will not be eligiblefor release again until 2012.

Despite his age, Manson“continues to pose an unrea-sonable danger to others andmay still bring harm to any-one he would come in contactwith,” the board wrote in itsdenial.

Manson has had 12 disci-plinary violations since hislast parole hearing in 2002.He refused to take advantageof rehabilitation programs,and he would not participatein a psychiatric evaluation,

Sequeira said.“He refused to cooperate,

so the conclusion they drewfrom the reports is he stillremains a danger to the pub-lic,” Sequeira said in a tele-phone interview. “He wasconvicted of nine horriblemurders. He has expressed noremorse or empathy for any ofthe victims.”

Manson initially was sen-tenced to death for the August1969 fatal stabbings of fivepeople in the home of actressSharon Tate and the murdersthe next day of Leno andRosemary LaBianca.Prosecutors said Manson andhis followers were trying toincite a race war that hebelieved was prophesied inthe Beatles’ song “HelterSkelter.”

He also was convicted ofthe earlier murder of musicianGary Hinman in his TopangaCanyon home, and the slayingof former stuntman Donald“Shorty” Shea at the Spahnmovie ranch in Chatsworthwhere Manson had his com-mune.

His death sentence waschanged in 1977 to life inprison with the possibility ofparole, the result of a 1972ruling by the CaliforniaSupreme Court that found thestate’s death penalty law at thetime unconstitutional.

Manson denied parole for 11th time

The Daily JournalNearly 1,200 school children

attended the free Children’s Concertpresented by the Ukiah Symphony onMonday morning, May 14, at thePerforming Arts Center at MendocinoCollege.

The Ukiah Symphony is a signifi-cant educational resource for thecounty. Students came from a dozenor more schools locally, home schools,Ukiah Unified School District, St.Mary’s, and Hopland, and two bus-loads of children came fromLaytonville. Students from UkiahUnified paid for their own busses.

These concerts are the symphony’sgift to the community, board presidentJean Slonecker commented, and thechildren’s concert sponsors alsoenable the symphony to offset pricesof children’s tickets to regular sym-phony performances as well.

The concerts are made possible byvery substantial donations from theKathleen Kohn Fetzer FamilyFoundation, the Ann and GordonGetty Foundation, and MendocinoForest Products Company, LLC.

Director Les Pfutzenreuter remind-ed the children that they are already

familiar with the sound of an orchestrafrom movie film scores and back-ground music on television and instores.

Each major orchestral grouping(strings, woodwinds, brass, and per-cussion) was identified and the sounddemonstrated by orchestra members intuxedos (some with cowboy boots)and full concert dress.

The sight of the big brass tubaelicited a spontaneous “ooh” from theaudience. During the first perfor-mance, there was applause for theharpist, Jessica Schaeffer, from onesection, the children from River OaksCharter School where she teachesstrings.

Then each section played their partof a specific section of the music sep-arately, and finally the whole orchestraplayed it together.

“Sheherazade” by Rimsky-Korsakov is a setting -- a kind of filmscore without the film -- of the storiesof the ‘”Arabian Nights” told by thewily wife of a sultan who marriedeach evening and killed his wife thenext morning. To stop him, she toldstories but stopped short of the end-ing, so he spared her life for 1,001

nights, first to hear how the storiescame out, and finally because he hadfound her trustworthy and wise.

The orchestra demonstrated themusical themes of the various charac-ters, so that when the full movementswere played, the students could devel-op mental pictures of the story.

Amy McHenry, a violinist who alsois a high school counselor and algebrateacher in Laytonville, worked withthe district there enable the 125 stu-dents to come to the concert. Theircafeteria provided sack lunches for atime in the park after the concert.

Orchestra members themselves hadto make arrangements with theirworkplaces for time off to play theconcerts. There were also youngersymphony members who wereexcused from their high school classesfor this event.

Mendocino College notifies eachschool principal in the area who inturn informs teachers of the children’sconcerts. The admission is free, butteachers must make reservations.Teachers then receive a CD of themusic and a basic lesson plan to intro-duce the students to the music beforethe concert itself.

County for things they cannot control! Andyet right here in Willits, there are things thatneed fixing. And where are the protestersfor the kids around here on dope, pot, drugsthat are right under their parents’ noses?

There are kids growing pot right in theirparents’ homes or property. There are kids,being stupid enough to join gangs, so thecan shoot other kids and people. If a kid isold enough to play with guns, then let thatkid join the military. Do something he orshe can be proud of.

There are serious problems here in thisCounty. And we are praying the newDistrict Attorney Lintott will do somethingabout the drugs in this County, and thegangs moving this County.

And another thing, the cancer, thetumors, all the illness in the County. Outtwo teenage daughters have a mother and astepfather who cares for their children’swelfare and want them to be healthy inmind, no drugs and in their physical wellbeing, with no cancer.

Thank you. I appreciate your newspaperfor letting us locals sound off.

A tragic eventTo the Editor:The shooting at Virginia Tech has proven

tragic on many fronts and generated discus-sion on security issues at universities, gunlaws, and law enforcement reponse speedand tatics. Kudos to Adam Gehlert for notletting such a horrendous event hold himpsychologically captive. Many Americanshave never experienced anything remotelyas devastating and live in perpetual fear ofpotential terrorist events and threats.

Laughing all the way to the bank

To the Editor:I had to laugh at one explanation from

Exxon about their repeating historic recordprofits: “We’re running on all our cylin-ders.” I’m sure Exxon executives are laugh-ing too, all the way to the bank. I’m angryevery time I get gas.

This is what we get when our moneymarinated political system rubber stampsmerger after merger. Exxon and others likethem are making record profits because theyhave monopoly power influence over mar-ket prices. If we had real competition in thismarket arena, we would see lower fuelprices. According to news reports, WestCoast refinery profit margins have increasedfrom an average of $17 per barrel to $39per barrel in just five years. Our workingclass would be served by honoring the pur-pose of anti trust laws and restoring compe-tition to this market place. Our nations’ antitrust laws are supposedly enforced our U.S.Department of Justice’s Anti Trust Division.What have they been doing about this prob-lem? It’s time to push for “restoring marketcompetition” to the refinery market, espe-cially on the West Coast.

Other opinionsFrom around the nation

The Buffalo (N.Y.)NewsOn gasoline prices

... There are two problemswith the price of gasoline.One is that it takes more andmore money from people’swallets, both when they buygas and when they buy any-thing that was transportedfrom there to here. ...

The other problem withthe price of gasoline is that,despite the public outcry andthe echoed outrage in thehalls of Congress, peoplekeep right on buying it. ...

The petroleum industry isso dominated by so fewfirms that the question ofwhether the market has beenmanipulated is self-evident.Of course it has, as much bythe governments unwilling-ness to pass and enforceanti-trust laws as by anytreachery among the petrogiants.

Sen. Charles E.Schumer’s call for an inves-tigation into suspected price-fixing by the oil industry is agood idea. ... MaybeSchumer can make a dealwith Big Oil. Either boostthe use of the nations refin-ing capacity from the current88 percent, and build morecapacity, to lower prices. Orjust raise those prices to, say$6 a gallon, and keep themthere. Keep them there longenough for people to makethe calculation that theywant more efficient cars,wider-reaching mass transitsystems and houses that arein the same ZIP code as theirjobs, because neither thepublic nor the auto industryseems to want to head in thatultimately necessary direc-tion on its own.

Otherwise, the oil indus-try remains in the role of the

very clever drug pusher.Enough to keep us hooked,never enough to kill us. Atleast, not right away.

The CommercialAppeal, Memphis,Tenn. On the civil rightsmovement, pardons

As some Southern stateswaged a vicious secondCivil War in the 1950s and1960s to block desegrega-tion, thousands of African-Americans and white peoplewere arrested while standingup for freedom.

The protesters werearrested on charges of disor-derly conduct, criminal tres-pass, inciting riots, loiteringand more, as they peacefullymarched, staged sit-ins andprotested to bring an end tothe South’s oppressive JimCrow laws, including barri-ers to African-Americansbeing able to vote.

For exercising their rightsas American citizens, theyunjustly ended up with crim-inal records. ...

Recently, some Southernstates, including Tennesseeand Alabama, have moved tooffer pardons to those con-victed of acts of civil disobe-dience during the civil rightsmovement. Some civil rightswarriors have expressed dis-dain for the effort, callingtheir arrests a badge ofhonor. In truth, the pardonsshould have been grantedyears ago, but it’s never toolate to right an injustice.

... The House and Senatethis week passed the RosaParks Act, named after themother of the civil rightsmovement, that would grantpardons to individuals whosought them.

Now, Gov. Phil Bredesenneeds to get up to speed onthe legislation and quicklysign it into law.

The IndianapolisStarOn the Chrysler sale

Daimler’s sale ofChrysler to a private invest-ment company could be thefirst step in a massive over-haul of American automo-bile companies.

The sale creates an alter-native business model to theapproach used since FordMotor Co. went public onJan. 17, 1956 — almost 40years after General Motorsstock first traded on the NewYork Stock Exchange.

Daimler’s reasons forshedding Chrysler at a bar-gain basement price bestframe the challenges facingCerberus, the automaker’snew owner. For Cerberus tosucceed, experts say, theorganization needs to cutoperating expenses by asmuch as 30 percent, improvequality control and competemore aggressively in globalmarkets, especially in China.

As a private company,Chrysler may be able to dealwith operating costs moreeffectively. Health care forworkers sits atop that list, asit does for America’s otherautomakers.

As when it was bailed outby Congress in 1979-80,Chrysler has an opportunityto reinvent itself, and to pos-sibly create operations morecompetitive with foreignautomakers.

Astute consumers willwatch carefully to see ifChrysler’s new approach canproduce higher-quality vehi-cles for lower prices. Youcan bet that Ford and GMwill be watching, too.

Paul Krugman joined The New York Times in1999 as a columnist on the Op-Ed Page andcontinues as Professor of Economics andInternational Affairs at Princeton University.

Yesterday I did something risky: I ate a salad.These are anxious days at the lunch table. For all

you know, there may be E. coli on your spinach, sal-monella in your peanut butter and melamine in yourpet’s food and, because it was in the feed, in yourchicken sandwich.

Who’s responsible for the new fear of eating? Someblame globalization; some blame food-producing cor-porations; some blame the Bush administration. But Iblame Milton Friedman.

Now, those who blame globalization do have apoint. U.S. officials can’t inspect overseas food-pro-cessing plants without the permission of foreign gov-ernments -- and since the Food and DrugAdministration has limited funds and manpower, itcan inspect only a small percentage of imports. Thisleaves American consumers effectively dependent onthe quality of foreign food-safety enforcement. Andthat’s not a healthy place to be, especially when itcomes to imports from China, where the state of foodsafety is roughly what it was in this country before theProgressive movement.

The Washington Post, reviewing FDA documents,found that last month the agency detained shipmentsfrom China that included dried apples treated with car-cinogenic chemicals and seafood “coated with putre-fying bacteria.” You can be sure that a lot of similarlyunsafe and disgusting food ends up in American stom-achs.

Those who blame corporations also have a point. In2005, the FDA suspected that peanut butter producedby ConAgra, which sells the product under multiplebrand names, might be contaminated with salmonella.According to The New York Times, “when agencyinspectors went to the plant that made the peanut but-ter, the company acknowledged it had destroyed someproduct but declined to say why,” and refused to letthe inspectors examine its records without a writtenauthorization.

According to the company, the agency never fol-lowed through. This brings us to our third villain, theBush administration.

Without question, America’s food safety system hasdegenerated over the past six years. We don’t knowhow many times concerns raised by FDA employeeswere ignored or soft-pedaled by their superiors. Whatwe do know is that since 2001 the FDA has introducedno significant new food safety regulations exceptthose mandated by Congress.

This isn’t simply a matter of caving in to industrypressure. The Bush administration won’t issue foodsafety regulations even when the private sector wantsthem. The president of the United Fresh ProduceAssociation says that the industry’s problems “can’tbe solved without strong mandatory federal regula-tions”: without such regulations, scrupulous growersand processors risk being undercut by competitorsmore willing to cut corners on food safety. Yet theadministration refuses to do more than issue nonbind-ing guidelines.

Why would the administration refuse to regulate anindustry that actually wants to be regulated? Officialsmight fear that they would create a precedent for pub-lic-interest regulation of other industries. But they arealso influenced by an ideology that says businessshould never be regulated, no matter what.

The economic case for having the governmentenforce rules on food safety seems overwhelming.Consumers have no way of knowing whether the foodthey eat is contaminated, and in this case what youdon’t know can hurt or even kill you. But there aresome people who refuse to accept that case, becauseit’s ideologically inconvenient.

That’s why I blame the food safety crisis on MiltonFriedman, who called for the abolition of both thefood and the drug sides of the FDA. What would pro-tect the public from dangerous or ineffective drugs?“It’s in the self-interest of pharmaceutical companiesnot to have these bad things,” he insisted in a 1999interview. He would presumably have applied thesame logic to food safety (as he did to airline safety):regardless of circumstances, you can always trust theprivate sector to police itself.

OK, I’m not saying that Friedman directly causedtainted spinach and poisonous peanut butter. But hedid help to make our food less safe, by legitimizingwhat the historian Rick Perlstein calls “E. coli conser-vatives”: ideologues who won’t accept even the mostcompelling case for government regulation.

Earlier this month the administration named, youguessed it, a “food safety czar.” But the food safetycrisis isn’t caused by the arrangement of the boxes onthe organization chart. It’s caused by the dominancewithin our government of a literally sickening ideolo-gy.

Music Center is presentingAcoustic Café at the MusicCenter, a free concert seriesfeaturing a myriad of local tal-ent and musical genres.

Jazz, county, classical, reg-gae, blues, swing, and manyother styles will be performedthroughout the summer.

Nine concerts will be heldevery other Saturday eveningbeginning June 2 and endingSept. 22. The festivities startaround 7 p.m. at the MusicCenter located at 745 N. StateSt. in Ukiah with the first per-former on June 2 being thefabulous country singer/song-writer Kitty Rose.

The event will be setbehind the store in its court-yard and staged under para-chutes in the style of an out-

door French Café completewith tables, tablecloths, andfood by Tamara Frey.

A drink table provided inconjunction with Ukiah MainStreet Program will be avail-able with all proceeds going tobenefit the Ukiah Skate Park.

The food offered at eachconcert will be representativeof the musical style performedthat evening. Keeping withthe festive nature of the event,a piano and/or other instru-ments will be raffled off ateach concert to help spreadmore music into our commu-nity.

The first concert will fea-ture Kitty Rose performingher unique and engagingcountry with a honky-tonktwang. Rose’s music recalls abrand of easy listening simplecountry pop that has sadly

become less and less promi-nent in the past few decades.A classic country troubadour,Kitty Rose started out thegrand ol’ country way: from aHouston choir to performingat the Super Bowl at 12 andhaving her first song pub-lished at 13. But this risingstar left Nashville forHollywood.

Now 25 years later, she’sback, opening for bands likeHootie and the Blowfish. Hergenuine sincerity and love ofmusic are obvious, apparentand very infectious, pepperedwith outrageously funny andwitty songs.

She’s a soulful, focusedsinger as well as a helluvasongwriter. Kitty Rose iscountry music played the wayit ought to be played.

Since this is a free concert

series in a small space, seatingwill fill quickly, so be sure toshow up early enough to get aseat.

For more information onthe series, visit Ukiahmusic.com or call 462-8863.

the traits I liked so much aboutthe first two Shrek movies.

I did, however, find the plotto be great. I love how somany fairy tale creature thateveryone grows up with as achild can all be put into onemovie.

The characters were greatincluding Captain Hook,Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty,Snow White and Rapunzel arejust some of the many fairy talecharacters.

The one interesting thingabout these characters is thatthey actually have personalityas opposed to their perfect selfin each Disney film and reallyadds a spin to this great ani-mated film.

Even with the few things Ithink could be improved in thismovie I do recommend it as aunique family film and perfectfor children.

Another one of the Wildcats top performersfrom Wednesday, Chad Bunting, followed inMadrigal’s footsteps with his own two-RBIdouble. Bunting finished Wednesday with astrong performance going 2-for-4 with twoRBIs and a stolen base. When all was said anddone for the second inning, the Wildcats stoodon top with a 6-0 lead.

Gaudin didn’t allow a hit from thesecond until the eighth when A.J.Pierzynski’s bloop single dropped pastthird base with one out. Juan Uribe fol-lowed with a hard-hit single to centerand Rob Mackowiak nearly tookGaudin deep, but his hit bounced offNick Swisher’s glove at the right-fieldwall, loading the bases and endingGaudin’s night. Jay Marshall got aforce out at home and a ground out toend the threat.

Alan Embree pitched a perfect ninthfor Oakland.

The White Sox had scored 28 runsover a three-game winning streak, butcouldn’t get much going againstGaudin until late in the game.

Darin Erstad led off the bottom ofthe first with a single but got doubledup at second. Dye got a hit to left to

lead off the second inning, but wasthrown out trying to stretch it into adouble by Shannon Stewart. Gaudinwas perfect after that until he walkedJim Thome with two outs in the sev-enth.

Gaudin throws seven-plusscorless innings for Oakland

By JOSH DUBOWAP Sports Writer

ALAMEDA — Travis Taylor hassome experience following RandyMoss, having joined the MinnesotaVikings two years ago after theydealt the receiver to the OaklandRaiders.

Now that Moss has been dealtagain to New England following adisappointing two-year stay inOakland, Taylor has joined theRaiders to help replace Moss.

“Don’t give me that responsibili-ty,” Taylor said Wednesday. “It takesa lot to replace that guy. Like I said,it’s a great opportunity to be here.It’s a great organization and a lot ofgood things are going on aroundhere.”

Replacing Moss in Oakland is amuch easier task than it was inMinnesota, where he was one of theNFL’s top receivers after makingfive Pro Bowls in seven seasons.Moss struggled with injuries andfocus with Oakland and had careerlows last season with 42 catches for553 yards and three touchdowns.

The Raiders traded him duringlast month’s draft to the Patriots for afourth-round pick. Oakland used athird-round pick on receiver JohnnieLee Higgins, traded for MikeWilliams and signed Taylor on

Tuesday in search of added depthwith Moss no longer around.

Last year’s leading receiverRonald Curry returns along withJerry Porter, who led the team inreceptions the previous two seasonsbefore feuding with coach Art Shellin 2006.

“We think that we’ve created a lotof competition there,” coach LaneKiffin said. “Randy not being thereis losing one, but adding three wethink that they fill it. I think that ifyou talk to them, they feel the com-petition, they feel the guy next tothem and feel that some guys won’tbe here.”

The deal with Taylor came togeth-er over the last few days. Kiffin alsotalked with Keyshawn Johnson, whowas released by Carolina earlier thismonth and announced Wednesdaythat he would retire to take anannouncing job with ESPN.

“We were exploring,” Kiffin said.“I had three good conversations withKeyshawn about it, and it just didn’twork out.”

Taylor had 57 catches for 651yards and three touchdowns last sea-son for the Minnesota Vikings beforebecoming a free agent. A former

By JENNA FRYERAP Auto Racing Writer

CONCORD, N.C. —Kasey Kahne should be thelogical choice to beat JimmieJohnson and the HendrickMotorsports gang in the Coca-Cola 600. After all, Kahnebeat Johnson on his home turftwice last season.

But, unfortunately forKahne, it’s a brand new yearand he’s yet to duplicate thesuccess of last season.

Kahne, who won twice atLowe’s Motor Speedway lastseason, heads into Sunday’srace 30th in the points withjust one top-10 finish thisyear. He’d love to endHendrick’s run of eight winsin the last nine points races,but knows he’s probably notgoing to be the driver to do it.

“Yeah, we want to winraces,” Kahne said. “But youdon’t come from finishing20th or 25th to suddenly win-ning again. Seems like youhave to make your way upthere, figure things out asquickly as you can. But ittakes time.”

And time is against Kahneright now.

Despite winning a series-best five regular-season races,Kahne barely made the Chasefor the championship lastyear. He needed to race hisway into title contention in thecutoff event, knockingdefending series champ TonyStewart out in the process.

The hole he’s in now ismuch deeper, and Kahne onlyhas 15 races to mount a furi-ous comeback. He won’tlaunch a frantic pursuit forwins, though. Kahne insteadwants to take it one small stepat a time.

“I’m just hoping to get con-sistent again, get back in thetop 10, top 15,” Kahne said.“Once you start doing that,then you’ll have your oppor-tunities as races unfold andwork out for you.”

In today’s NASCAR, suc-cess is measured by theChase. The drivers who makeit had a good year. The oneswho don’t get in go back tothe drawing board. Kahne’s

hoping to get back inside thattop 12.

“It’s something we canshoot for,” he said. “It seemslike it gets further and furtheraway each week with the waywe’re running. If we can goon a big roll, get a streak of abunch of top 10s, consistentfinishes in a row, lead laps,there’s still definitely a shot toget there.”

But he’ll need a great run inthe longest race of the seasonto make it happen. And even ifKahne is flawless, he’ll stillhave a hard time contendingwith Johnson, who hasn’t fin-ished lower than second atLMS since 2003.

Johnson fully expectedKahne to be among his topcompetition this season, andhas been surprised with howfar behind the No. 9 teamseems to be.

“Without a doubt, I thoughthe was going to be a con-tender for the championshipand race wins like he was lastyear,” Johnson said. “I knowthey’re working hard, tryingto sort out their stuff. I thinkit’s been a shock to myself andI’d say most of the racingcommunity.”

But Johnson said the prob-lems likely go much deeperthan Kahne. As teams struggleto run two programs — thecurrent car and the Car ofTomorrow — it’s been a chal-lenge to be successful at both.

Only Hendrick, with winsin all five COT races, seems tohave it figured out.

“A lot of that falls back onthe organization,” Johnsonsaid. “As you get into chassisdevelopment, engine develop-ment, there’s a lot of compo-nents that make up the effortthat we have at the race track.

“From year to year with

rule changes, body changes ...to stay ahead of the curve onthat stuff, to really think thosethings through, takes a lotmore than what you see.”

Ray Evernham, Kahne’scar owner, won three champi-onships as a crew chief forHendrick and knows how dif-ficult reaching the top of thesport is. His organization hasbeen decent since its 2001launch, but he’s yet to field alegitimate championship con-tender, even though Kahne isconsidered one of the mosttalented young drivers in thesport.

Evernham blames therecent struggles on himself.

“I think the past year hasbeen very, very busy for meboth professionally and per-sonally, and I got probably alittle bit too far away from mycars,” he said. “I enjoy thecars and I enjoy the guys andthat’s where I need to be.”

Evernham now is courtinga partner for his race team,and hopes he can get a dealdone with MontrealCanadiens owner GeorgeGillett Jr. He’s confident thatparent companyDaimlerChrysler’s recentdecision to sell the ChryslerGroup to a private equity firmwill not hamper negotiationswith Gillett or sidetrack theDodge Motorsports program.

“He’s aware of what’sgoing on,” Evernham said.“Eventually a NASCAR teamis going to grow to not bedependent on the manufactur-er. I know George already is aDodge dealer and has a greatrelationship with them. But Idon’t think Dodge being soldhas really any input on whatGeorge is doing.”

NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series @Charlotte Lowe'S Motor Speedway

Sun, May. 27 2:30 PM

The Associated PressOTTAWA — Daniel

Alfredsson and the OttawaSenators have some cram-ming to do before facing theAnaheim Ducks in the StanleyCup final.

The teams, set to open thefinals Monday night inAnaheim, didn’t face eachother this season and haven’tmet in Anaheim since Oct. 17,2003, when Senators goaliePatrick Lalime made 30 savesin a 3-0 victory.

In fact, they have playedonly once since then, withAnaheim’s Chris Kunitz beat-ing Dominik Hasek for theshootout winner in Ottawa onJan. 19, 2006.

“I haven’t seen them much,a period here and there duringthe playoffs,” said Alfredsson,the Senators’ captain. “I think

it will be the most physicalseries so far. They’re a biggerteam and they have someskilled guys as well.”

Ottawa center Mike Fisherhas confidence that the currentlevel of the Senators’ gamewill ensure a competitiveseries even if they have muchless experience to draw on infacing Anaheim compared totheir familiarity withPittsburgh, New Jersey andBuffalo — the EasternConference champions’ oppo-nents on their way to theCanadian capital’s firstStanley Cup final since 1927.

“We’ll obviously get a lookat video to see their tenden-cies, but we’ve got to keepdoing the same things we’redoing,” Fisher said. “We feelgood where our game is at.We’re in tough but we think

it’s a good series.”Senators coach Bryan

Murray is well-acquaintedwith a number of the Ducks’players, notably goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere, the 2003Conn Smythe winner whenAnaheim lost in seven gamesto New Jersey.

“You have to be on with ashot because you don’t getvery many soft goals on him,”said Murray, who was theDucks’ GM at the time.

Martin Gerber, Ottawa’sbackup goalie, held the samerole behind Giguere withAnaheim in 2003.

“He doesn’t play fancy orflashy,” Gerber said. “He’sprobably the hardest-workingguy in the league, the way heworks in practices.”

By JAY GORDONSpecial for the Journal

Willits Community Theatreis proud to present AndrewBergman’s play, “SocialSecurity” this Thursday,Friday and Saturday. With ter-rific timing and delivery thiscast is wonderful.

Of course, any productionwith House Director IanStigliani at the helm is sure tobe delightful, but “SocialSecurity” has a precioussweetness to it.

This is not to say the play issappy (there is definitely somecolorful humor) but rather thatit is a sophisticated comedythat has the kind of “feelgood” ending you find in aFarrely Brothers movie. Thisshow is a must see.

“Sophie Greengrass,beloved mother of Barbaraand Trudy, adored grandmoth-er of Sarah.”

Imagine looking for afavorite family recipe and dis-covering your own futureobituary notice filed under“Casseroles.” Such is the situ-ation encountered by a feistywidow, Sophie Greengrass,living with her suburbandaughter Trudy and son-in-law Martin.

An unusual family crisisresults in Mrs. Greengrassabruptly being deposited atthe Manhattan home of her“fancy” daughter Barbara andson-in-law David. Here,

Sophie‚s life is magicallytransformed by a love affairwith a 98-year-old renownedartist named Maurice Koenig.

Chris Alfano is superb asthe voice of reason on stage,giving a lovely performanceas art dealer and galleryowner, Barbara Kahn.Stigliani plays her businesspartner and husband, DavidKahn. Stigliani is hilarious towatch as he accurately cap-tures the edgy essence of awant-to-be major player in theNew York art scene. WCTfavorite Marilyn McNair isdelightful in her transforma-tion from a cranky candy-spit-ting old biddy into a beautiful

and wise woman in love. Thetwo newcomers to WCT arefantastic! Actors Kathleen deBane and Tim Cooper playTrudy and Martin Heyman, acouple whose marriage prob-lems are exacerbated by theirdaughter‚s sexual explo-rations. Charlie Lacey, lastseen in “Cactus Flower,” ischarming in this productionand his smile lights up thestage.

He portrays artist MauriceKoenig, who falls in love withSophie over a romantic dinnerof cold mousse of pike (a dishnot to be mistaken with gefiltefish).

Christopher Martin will be

playing the part of MartinHeyman on Friday, May 25for the one performance only.Christopher‚s fans won‚t wantto miss this opportunity tocatch him in this sensationalshow.

“Social Security” willmake you laugh all night andleave you wanting more.They‚re sure to sell out, so getyour tickets soon at Leaves ofGrass Books in downtownWillits by calling 354-3744.Remaining performancesdates are Thursday, the 24 at 7pm, with the May 25 and 26 at8 p.m. The WCT playhouse islocated at 37 W.

The Daily JournalThe diverse lineup has been

announced for the 14th annual SierraNevada World Music Festival takingplace June 22, 23 and 24 at theMendocino County Fairgrounds, located30 minutes west of Ukiah in Boonville.

This yearly summer solstice celebra-tion creates a veritable global villagewhere people come to a beautiful settingto enjoy a diverse lineup of new and leg-endary artists from around the world.Now in its 14th year, this world-classfestival features three days of music per-formed on two stages, convenient camp-ing, and an eclectic group of ethnic foodand craft vendors in the Festival Village.

As festival organizer and founderWarren Smith notes, “There are so manygreat artists, bands and DJ’s in Worldand Reggae and this provides us a won-derful foundation to work with as wecreate the Sierra Nevada World MusicFestival lineup each year. Our intentionis to invite performers and recordingartists from both the past and present-some of whom make their first-everWestern U.S. appearances here.”

The Mendocino County Fairgroundsprovide camping for festival-goers aswell as a pine-shaded Village stage andcovered grandstand for seating in theMain stage area. The Children’s Cornerfeatures educational children’s activitiesincluding storytelling, drum workshops,and arts and crafts.

The 2007 lineup features Toots & TheMaytals and Carlinhos Brown. Maytalsleader Toots Hibbert is credited withcoining the term “reggae” with his hitsingle “Do The Reggay” back in 1968and maintains a rigorous tour schedule,including a recent appearance at theRock and Roll Hall of Fame inCleveland. Percussionist and vocalistCarlinhos Brown is a household name inhis native Brazil performing his Afro-Bahian sound that has led to numeroushits on the charts.

Coming from Europe are Ojos deBrujo an eight-piece band fromBarcelona whose music is centered inFlamenco with elements of hip-hop, andpop and Les Nubians, the African-French sister duo, whose neo-soul genrecrossing led to a chart-topping album“Princesses Nubiennes” in 1999.

Adding to the world music roster areSierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars who

have been in the spotlight with appear-ances on CNN and Oprah after a docu-mentary featuring their story as refugeesfrom civil war was released. Their CDrelease “Living Like A Refugee”received the honor of being named oneof Amazon.com’s top picks for 2006.

Markus James joins the SNWMFlineup performing Blues with Malianmusicians whose ancient guitar ideasand traditional African instruments arethe precursor to the Blues sound as it istoday.

The centerpiece of the Sierra NevadaWorld Music Festival each year is reg-gae in all of its varied forms and thisyear’s lineup is no different. VocalistLuciano -”The Messenger” of consciousreggae returns to SNWMF for his sec-ond appearance.

Firebrand reggae dancehall “singjay”sensation Turbulence is slated to make arare West Coastfestival appearance onthe heels of his hit song “Notorious”.Vocalist Junior Kelly, who’s prolificsong writing has cemented his positionin the realm of reggae’s most sought-after artists will also perform. TonyRebel comes to SNWMF as a veteran inthe industry and one of the pioneers ofthe “singjay” style, as half toaster, halfvocalist, with his 1996 hit “If Jah.”

“The King of Ska” Derrick Morgantakes it back to the roots making his sec-ond appearance at the festival with 48years of experience to call upon andnumerous top-selling singles. Makingtheir first appearance since 2001 are TheEthiopians who released one of ska’s alltime classics “Train To Skaville” in the‘60’s. Sugar Minott joins the lineup withhis unique vocal tone as a foundationdancehall artist. Bob Andy, a prolificsongwriter and half of the duet “Bob &Marcia” that included Marcia Griffithswill contribute his own brand of vintagereggae to the festivities. Maytones alsotrace their roots to the 1960’s with astring of hits that explored Rastafarianthemes, and they make their first-everSNWMF appearance.

In his third festival appearance isSeattle, Washington-based reggae veter-an, Clinton Fearon, original member ofThe Gladiators. Earl Zero, whose song“None Shall Escape the Judgment.”remains a ‘70s reggae mainstay, willperform his own brand of classic reggaethat is essential to the festival’s distinc-tive lineup.

The traditions of the drumming anddancing are consistent elements of theSNWMF lineup each year. This year, thegroup Kusun Ensemble who hail fromGhana, West Africa will perform a newbrand of music and dance they havedubbed “Nokoko.” Santa-Cruz,California’s own group SambaDa willbring its own brand of Afro-Brazilian/funk flavor to the festival. The BayArea’s LoCura will perform what theycall “reggaelicious flamenkito” addinganother dimension the world/dancetheme.

The Daily JournalAt the final meeting of the

Ukiah Commmunity ConcertAssociation for this season,the Board of Directors con-firmed the election of fournew members. They are RickAllen and April Parry fromUkiah, Todd Kong fromHopland and Ethel Beanfrom Lakeport.

Their appointments wereset at the final meeting ofthe concert season whichwas held at the home of Dr.Brian Hanson and ElenaCasanova.

As out-going president,George Husaruk conductedhis final meeting.

Husaruk has served fortwo terms as president.Under his leadership theconcert group has been pre-sented with many innovativeideas that have strengthenedthe organization.

Dr. Geoff Rice, a longtimemember of the board whohas already served a term aspresident, once more accept-ed the leadership position,and took over the gavel fromHusaruk.

Edwin Phillips who hasserved on the Board for sev-eral years has tendered hisresignation, and was thankedfor his service to the com-munity.

Jarrod McNaughton willbe leaving the area and willbe missed as he too hasmade many contributions tothe vitality of UCCA duringhis time as a volunteer.

Following the Boardmeeting,the membersadjourned to the gardenpatio of Brian, Elena andtheir children Briana andAdrian, and met their spous-es and guests for a deliciouspotluck dinner.

Behind the CommunityConcert scene is a group oflocal volunteers who have

made the Ukiah CommunityConcerts Association a suc-cessful organization for 61years.

They work with bookingagents throughout the UnitedStates who offer world-classentertaining artists in musicand dance, to bring them tothe Ukiah stage to perform.UCCA is an enduring cultur-al asset to the area.

UCCA should not betaken for granted. Somecities across the U.S. andCanada have been unable tomaintain their membershipand have had to close downtheir Community Concertsgroups. It can only exist withthe continued work that theboard, the volunteers and themembers provide.

The Board of Directorsmeets frequently before andduring the concert seasonand handles all of the manyarrangements necessary topresent these concerts to thecommunity.

During the membershipcampaign they are joined byan additional group of fiftyworkers who sell member-ship subscriptions for theconcert series of four con-certs per season.

Members of the Board ofDirectors currently servinginclude: Rick Allen, EthelBean, Francine Bearden, AlBellon, Elena Casanova,Maggie Cooper, AnnCreekmore, Dr. Dave Crew,Barbara Curtis, BeverlyGates, George Husaruk,Todd Kong, BernadetteMcKeon, JarrodMcNaughton, Joyce Murray,April Parry, Dr. StevePasternak, Dr. Geoff Rice,Kay Sause, Arleen Shippey,Frances Stevens, GladysTelschow, Diana Thomasand Virginia Williams.

“Because of the continu-

Killings

By ROBERT BURNSAP Military Writer

WASHINGTON — Mindful oflong-term U.S. interests, military anddiplomatic strategists seeking to sal-vage President Bush’s latest Iraq warplan are beginning to shift gearswhile buying time for Iraqis toresolve their differences.

Pressure to show results is grow-ing in the U.S., even as more troopsarrive.

Adding to the anxiety is the risingAmerican death toll. The militaryannounced Wednesday that gunbat-tles and roadside bombs killed sevensoldiers and two Marines the daybefore, bringing the total U.S mili-tary death toll since the war began toat least 3,431.

The top U.S. commander in Iraq,Gen. David Petraeus, in collabora-tion with new U.S. ambassador RyanCrocker, is putting the final toucheson a document spelling out in newdetail how they intend to implementBush’s strategy announced inJanuary. Bush ordered an extra21,500 combat troops to Iraq inhopes that more firepower inBaghdad would tamp down sectarianviolence and enable rival factions tocoalesce.

The Petraeus and Crocker plan,known in military parlance as a cam-paign plan, makes what one militaryofficer in Baghdad called course cor-rections without changing the basicBush strategy, which was built on the

belief that political reconciliation inBaghdad could not happen until bet-ter security was established.

Under consideration is a large andrapid increase in the size of the Iraqiarmy to fill the security gaps that areanticipated once the extra U.S.troops begin to leave, perhaps earlynext year, according to an officialknowledgeable of the planning.There are now about 144,000 in theIraqi army; any increases would haveto be worked out with the Iraqi gov-ernment, in part because they wouldhave to pay some of the cost.

National Public Radio reportedWednesday that Petraeus andCrocker want to nearly double thesize of the Iraqi army.

During the rocky tenure ofPetraeus’s predecessor, Gen. GeorgeCasey, a greater emphasis was placedon hastening the transition of securi-ty, political and economic responsi-bilities to the Shiite-led Iraqi govern-ment, which has battled a Sunni-ledand al-Qaida-fueled insurgency.

Petraeus has focused more onidentifying hardened sectarians inthe political system and securityforces and persuading Iraqi leadersto remove them. His new plan alsoenvisions more emphasis on negoti-ating with elements of the insur-gency that are judged to be potential-ly willing to reconcile, one officialsaid.

Petraeus has said he plans toreport to Washington in Septemberon how the Bush strategy is working.

One key question then will bewhether to reduce U.S. troop levels,which the Pentagon says now standat 147,000. About another 10,000troops are scheduled to arrive overthe coming month, mainly in theBaghdad area.

The implications of a U.S. failureare grim and extend beyond the poli-tics of a war that, after more thanfour years of fighting, has drawnmost Americans to the view that itwas a mistake to begin. Senior civil-ian and military officials believe theUnited States has a long-term inter-est in assuring the stability of Iraq —not just to restore a society that col-lapsed after the U.S. invasion in2003, but also to preserve wider U.S.interests.

Pressure on the administration tosucceed in Iraq comes not only fromthe Democratic-led Congress —including some members of the pres-ident’s own party — but also fromthe inescapable fact that the U.S.military — particularly the Army andthe Marine Corps — are gettingworn down by the unrelenting paceof fighting.

Deputy White House spokesmanTony Fratto said the Petraeus plan isnot a new war strategy.

“These are the tactics designed tohelp make the (existing) strategywork,” he said, adding that it “will becompleted soon, in consultation withofficials in Washington.” TheWashington Post, which was first toreport on the plan in its Wednesday

editions, said it is scheduled to befinished by the end of the month.

“The report is classified becausewe don’t want to signal all of ourintended plans to those trying todefeat the U.S., coalition and Iraqiswho are trying to create a stable andsecure Iraq, therefore, we’re notgoing to discuss details.,” Frattosaid.

Frederick Kagan of the AmericanEnterprise Institute think tank, whoreturned last week from a weeklongvisit to Iraq, said in an interview thatit was to be expected that Petraeusand Crocker would do a “soup-to-nuts reassessment” of the situationthis spring, since they arrived afterthe strategy was already in place.

Kagan, who said he has not seenthe campaign plan, said he sees littlechance of — or reason to — switchstrategies.

“I don’t think there’s anotherviable military option in Iraq at thispoint that differs dramatically fromwhat we’re doing,” Kagan said.

Stephen Biddle, a military expertat the Council on Foreign Relationsand a member of a group that spentweeks in Iraq assessing the situationfor Petraeus and Crocker to helpthem develop their new plan, said inan interview that expanding the sizeof the Iraqi army will be difficult,mainly because of the sectarian ten-sions that have hardened over time.

“It’s hard to get a non-sectarianmilitary to begin with,” let aloneexpand it quickly, he said, stressing

that he was offering his personalview and was not authorized to dis-cuss the work he did for Petreaus andCrocker.

U.S. officials say security isimproving as thousands more U.S.troops arrive in Baghdad neighbor-hoods, but they acknowledge thatmore gains are needed and that theIraqi government must move fasterto fulfill its obligation to pass keylegislation and take other actions,including eliminating sectarian deathsquads.

Adm. William Fallon, the top U.S.commander in the Middle East, tolda congressional panel May 3 that hehas asked his staff to take a longer-term look at Iraq to consider whatkind of relationship is possible.

“I envision that we will want to be— and we will be asked to be — inIraq for some period of time,” Fallonsaid. He referred to “an enduringpresence” of U.S. forces in Iraq, notto fight insurgents but to train Iraqisand to support their developingground, sea and air forces in waysthat U.S. forces do elsewhere on theglobe.

Defense Secretary Robert Gatesspoke two weeks ago of U.S. forcesremaining in Iraq “for a protractedperiod of time,” with Iraqi govern-ment agreement, to provide logisticaland other kinds of support.

But those kinds of long-termarrangements may not be possibleunless the situation in Baghdad isfixed soon.

Tactics to stabilize Iraq being refined, but basic strategy remains

Associated PressTORRANCE — About a

month ago, the family of Pfc.Joseph Anzack Jr. endured themost frightening of rumors:The soldier was dead in Iraq.

After messages were postedon MySpace.com, South HighSchool, where he had been afootball star, put a message ona sign outside that said: “InLoving Memory JosephAnzack Class of 2005.” Itwasn’t until the Red Crosshelped his father speak withhim by phone that the familycould put the rumor to rest.

On Wednesday, the familyrelived the trauma — only thistime, it was real. Anzack wasidentified as the soldier whosebody was found in theEuphrates River in Iraq afterbeing abducted with two com-

rades a week and a half ago, arelative said. “They told us,‘We’re sorry to inform you thebody we found has been iden-tified as Joe,”’ said the sol-dier’s aunt, Debbie Anzack.“I’m in disbelief.”

Military officials toldAnzack’s family that a com-manding officer identified thebody, but that DNA tests werestill pending, she said.

Anzack, 20, of Torrance,was one of three soldiers whovanished after their combatteam was ambushed May 12about 20 miles outside ofBaghdad. Five others, includ-ing an Iraqi, were killed in theambush. The three U.S. sol-diers were members of 4thBattalion, 31st InfantryRegiment of the 10thMountain Division’s 2nd

Brigade combat team. The10th Mountain Division, basedin Fort Drum, N.Y., has spear-headed a search that hasincluded 4,000 U.S. troops and2,000 Iraqis. Two soldiers, notyet identified, have died in thesearch.

If the soldiers were takenalive, it would be the singlebiggest abduction of U.S. sol-diers in Iraq since Pvt. JessicaLynch and six others were cap-tured on March 23, 2003.

In the soldiers’ hometowns,the discovery of the body casta pall after days of optimismthat all the soldiers might befound alive. Still missing arePvt. Byron Fouty, 19, ofWaterford, Mich. and Spc.Alex Jimenez, 25, ofLawrence, Mass.

Word of Anzack’s death

spread throughout this city ofabout 150,000 residents 20miles southwest of downtownLos Angeles. Kyle Flynn, 20,said the two became fastfriends on their high schoolfootball team, for which Azackplayed nose guard and Flynnwas a defensive back.

Flynn recalled him as sur-prisingly self-assured as a highschooler and said he knewearly that he wanted to join themilitary. “I just remember, as asophomore or a junior in highschool, he was set on it, said,‘I’m ready to go,”’ Flynn said.“I know that’s what he wantedto do, that was what he wasabout, and I respected himmore than anyone else in theworld, to grow up so fast to goover there and fight for us andour freedom.”

THURSDAY, MAY 24, 2007 – B-1

Dear Annie: My sister, “Linda,” died twomonths ago, after years of struggling with can-cer. We were very close, and I’m still grieving.Linda was married nearly 20 years, but I neverfelt I knew her husband, “James.” During herillness, James never showed Linda the affec-tion I would have expected. In fact, the lack ofgrief from both James and his children made itdifficult for me to deal with my loss.

However, last week, I received a very dis-turbing letter from James. He suggested we gettogether for a “night of fun.” He said he hadn’thad much sex in the last few years because ofLinda’s illness, and implied that I also wasn’tgetting any due to my taking full-time care ofan elderly relative. He figured we could helpeach other out. He actually said that by satisfy-ing his physical needs with me, he’d be in abetter position to become emotionally involvedwith another woman once he was ready to dateagain. To top it off, he said, “Linda would wantthis.”

I was absolutely shocked and sickened.

After several days, I sent him a response. I toldhim I found his letter deeply disturbing andinappropriate, that I would never consider sucha proposal, and that I didn’t think my sisterwould ever have condoned such a thing. Iurged him to seek counseling and told himnever to talk to me about this again.

I am furious with James and feel somehowmolested. I never gave him any indication thatI had sexual feelings for him. I wonder if thestress has made him lose his mind. Should I tellanyone? Are his children safe? I destroyed theletter because I couldn’t stand to have it in mypossession. How will I ever be able to look himin the eye again? -- Confused in Kentucky

Dear Confused: James is lonely and haswildly inappropriate expectations, but we don’tthink he has lost his mind or is a danger to any-one. You’ve told him to back off. Good. Nowyou need to pretend it never happened. Whenyou see him, don’t bring up the subject anddon’t respond if he brings it up. If necessary,walk away.

Dear Annie: When a husband is driving,and his wife is in the passenger seat and thereis another female passenger seated in the rightback, for whom should the husband open thecar door first? -- Just Wondering

Dear Wondering: It’s so nice that someonestill opens car doors for others. If it’s yourmother, mother-in-law, grandmother or a per-son needing assistance, open her door first.Otherwise, it doesn’t matter.

Dear Annie: I am writing in response to the13-year-old girl who wanted to stop suckingher fingers at night. As a pediatric occupation-al therapist, let me share some insight.

Sucking is the main tool infants use to calmor alert their systems. As we grow into adults,we still use “mouth tools” every day for self-

regulation. Some fit well within societal normssuch as chewing gum or pen caps, whistling,drinking coffee or sodas. Others are self-destructive, such as nail biting, smoking,overeating or alcoholism. Some turn into a pro-fession or hobby, such as playing a woodwindinstrument. Whatever the sensory tool, we allcontinue to use the mouth for helping to calmdown or perk up. The young girl should workto find a more age-appropriate sensory mouthtool. She might try keeping a water bottle witha sport lid on it, so she can suck the waterbefore nodding off. Just before bed, she couldtry drinking applesauce through a straw. If sheplays in the school band, practicing her instru-ment closer to bedtime may also be a benefit.

Exploring various substitutions that will stillprovide the desired sensory input her systemcraves may offer her the most success. -- KatieHorn, MS, OTR/L Pediatric OccupationalTherapist

Dear Katie Horn: Thanks for the great sug-gestions (although playing an instrumentbefore bed might be a little rough on the rest ofthe household).
