SHERIDAN — If you’ve been to a feedstore recently, you’ve seen them — the littlepeeping balls of fuzz in horse troughs thatdraw you over for a look. Baby chickensand ducks.

There was a time when keeping chickensand ducks was part of any family farm.Fresh eggs were gathered, coops werecleaned and broilers were dispatched,plucked and cooked for dinner. However, aspeople began populating cities, more peo-ple began getting their eggs and cuts ofchicken wings, legs and breasts wrapped inplastic from the grocery store rather thanthe backyard.

But the backyard chicken is coming back.Many cities across the United States arerevising or adding ordinances that allowpeople to keep a few chickens on their citylots.

In Sheridan, Community Service OfficerRay Buhr said that any person or familywanting to take on raising chickens, facesfew ordinances from the city.

“You can have as many as you want, aslong as they don’t irritate the neighbors,”he said.

The city ordinance requires fowl to bekept on a person’s property and not becomea nuisance, either by roaming off theowner’s property, or from noise, as in earlymorning crowing.

“They have the same lawas your dogs and

cats, they can’tbe running at

large,” heexplained.“The onlyreal com-

plaints I’ve ever had on chickens is somefolks had some Banty roosters that werecrowing at four in the morning waking theneighbors.”

Buhr said his main recommendation foranyone wanting to keep chickens in townis to avoid having a rooster and just raisehens. Roosters are not necessary for hensto produce eggs; they are only necessary toproduce fertilized eggs, which most chick-en owners do not want.

Keeping chickens does require work.They need to be fed daily, either kitchenscraps or commercial feed or a combina-tion of both. They also need fresh water, asafe enclosure where they can roost atnight and areas where they can nest andlay their eggs.

In exchange for basic care, they do pro-vide benefits. Obviously, daily eggs are abonus for those who love a fresh omelet forbreakfast, but chickens also help controlbugs in gardens, add fertilizer and evenhelp keep weeds in check.

In 2009, the University of WyomingSheridan Research and Extension Centerwas in the midst of a grasshopper invasionof their half-acre vegetable farm. Wishingto maintain the organic nature of the gar-

den, the center rented 26 chickensfrom a local farmer. What hap-

pened next was a surprise. As later reported in the

UW College of Agricultureand Natural Resources maga-

zine ”Reflections,” “Once releasedinto the garden, the hens immediately

were seen eating the grasshoppers andother garden insects. After only one week,

there was a drastic visualdecrease in the grasshopperpopulation. Ten days later,the grasshopper populationdecreased to a point thechickens had nibbled onsome vegetables. This dam-age was minute comparedwith damage from grasshop-pers. The hens were fencedout of the main garden andinto the tree nursery for 11days. While there, the chick-ens reduced the weeds by 90percent from their peckingand scratching. Not only didchickens save the gardenfrom total destruction byinsects, but also eliminatedweeds!”

Sheridan residentChristina Lipetzky and herhusband raised six hens forthree years, until theybutchered the birds last fall.She said with just a littlepreparation and work, theexperience of raising chick-ens in their backyard wasrewarding.

“The eggs are the bestpart and every morning wehad fresh eggs,” she said.“As long as you do yourpart, you get so much backfrom them.”

“They are pretty cleanbirds,” she continued.“They don’t need a lot. Wemade sure they had clean water, food andbedding and they did the rest. The cost ben-efit was actually quite nice. Their food isn’tvery expensive. And we would bring themfruit and vegetable scraps from our kitchenso we were able to recycle our food aswell.”

Lipetzky said in the spring and summermonths, egg production peaked and sheharvested about one egg per hen per day.However, in the winter months as the daysget shorter, egg production falls and some-times ceases. Though you can keep egg pro-duction going by providing artificial light,Lipetzky chose to let her hens rest through

the winter. “Do your research,” Lipetzky advised on

acquiring chickens. “Just make sure youlook into it, what is required, how youwant to build a coop, how you want to keepthem safe and comfortable. They are prettylow maintenance as long as you are awareof the food and shelter they need. I telleveryone if they’ve got even just a littlearea of yard they can provide them, theyreally are so easy to take care of. I thinkquite a few people would find chickens arequite beneficial.”

‘Last Call’ drill teaches valuable lesson before promBY PAOLO CISNEROSTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN — About 880Sheridan High School stu-dents got a firsthand look atthe potential consequencesof drunk driving Friday dur-ing a simulated car accidentstaged by local students andfirst responders.

The “Last Call” event ispart of a longstanding pro-gram aimed at promptingarea high school students tomake good decisions duringprom week.

Sheridan-area firefighters,police, coroner’s office staffand all teamed up to showthe SHS student body whatmight happen to four oftheir classmates who hap-pened to be on the wrongend of a deadly encounterwith a drunk driver.

“We hope they use this as alesson...if they’re out and ina situation where there’sdrinking and people are try-ing to decide whether todrive,” Sheridan FireMarshal Brian Songer said.

Narrator Brett Smith, who

is also a Sheridan firefighter,detailed the dreams andaspirations of four SHS stu-dents before the actors tookover, providing the audiencewith a dramatic rendition ofthe moments immediatelyfollowing a devastating carwreck.

SHS senior Jin Kim playedthe part of a passenger whowas thrown through thewindshield and died onimpact.

Kylee Cahoy, GunnarEdeen and Jackie Lewisplayed the surviving passen-gers who were left withsevere emotional and physi-cal scars as a result of theaccident.

Senior Max Marquisplayed the role of the driverwhose decision to get behind

the wheel while drunkturned prom night into ahorrific ordeal for his class-mates.

While firefighters workedto dismantle the car thattrapped three of the stu-dents, police performed afield sobriety test onMarquis before placing himunder arrest.

When they had finallystripped the car of its doorsand roof, firefightersremoved the injured stu-dents and loaded them intoan ambulance.

The county coroner thenarrived to wrap Kim in abody bag and drive him awayin a hearse.

LAST CALL: Demonstrates consequencesFROM 1

School officials said the sobering scene wasintended to remind high school students thatthe decision to drink and drive can easilyresult in the complete derailment of theironce-hopeful futures.

“We’ve got a whole community that cares alot about the young people at this high school,and we want to encourage all of them to makegood choices,” SHS Principal Dirlene Wheelersaid.

“‘Last Call’ has been a very powerful mes-

sage for our students,” she added.As for the actors, they said they hoped their

classmates took the message to heart.Marquis said he hoped students would

remember that drunk drivers stand not onlyto harm themselves, but also the people theycare about most.

“All the students that volunteer to do thishave a lot ahead of them, and (drunk driving)can really screw up a good thing,” he said.

SHS will host several other events thisweekend aimed at promoting responsibilityduring the final weeks of school.

FROM 1

Karlie Kinner is brand new to chickenownership and is currently raising fourhens — Dolly, Patsy, Tammy and Reba —named after country-western singers.

“They are really fun,” she said. “I haveenjoyed it so far. They are fun to watchand play with. They are not as muchwork as you would think. You just have tomake sure they have clean water andfood.”

She purchased her chicks a month agoalong with a pre-fabricated coop that sheput together.

Two of her chicks were 2 weeks oldwhen she purchased them and the other

two were just a couple days old. Thechickens won’t begin producing eggsuntil about 20 weeks of age.

They are currently kept in the coopwhere she has placed a heat lamp forwarmth, but she plans to fence off a por-tion of her yard this summer where theycan roam freely.

She noted that raptors and cats some-times prey on chickens, so her fencedarea will have a protective screen on topas well.

“They will be for eggs mostly,” she saidabout future plans for the hens. “Theymight turn into soup, but probably justeggs. I have them named, so they willprobably stay layers!”

CHEYENNE (AP) — TheWyoming RepublicanParty Central Committeeacted too hastily inaddressing a new state lawchanging the powers andduties of the state superin-tendent of public instruc-tion, GOP Gov. Matt Meadsaid Friday.

Last month, the CentralCommittee voted 40-32 toapprove a resolutionendorsing a petition driveto repeal the state law,which was approved by theRepublican-controlledstate Legislature andMead. In addition, it hadearlier considered but didnot approve asking severalGOP legislators whopushed the new law to con-sider leaving the party.

“I don’t think that’s theright way to go,” Meadsaid.

The law passed this win-ter severely curtailed theadministrative duties ofthe statewide electedsuperintendent of publicinstruction, includingreplacing the superintend-ent as head of the

Wyoming Department ofEducation with a directorappointed by the governor.

The law took effect whenMead signed it, meaningthe current superintend-ent, Republican Cindy Hill,lost much of her powerand duties in the middle ofher four-year term. Hillwas elected in 2010.

Hill has filed a lawsuitchallenging the constitu-tionality of the law. Thecase will be argued beforethe Wyoming SupremeCourt sometime this year.In addition, a petition iscirculating around thestate to refer the law to astatewide ballot in 2014.

The law gained strongbacking in the Legislatureafter lawmakers com-plained that Hill was mis-managing the EducationDepartment and hinderinglegislative work to over-haul the state’s K-12 educa-tion system. But opponentsquestion whether theLegislature had the author-ity to make such a majorchange in a statewideelected office.

In regard to how theEducation Departmentwas operated, Mead hascreated an independentinquiry into the opera-tions of the agency whilethe Legislature has

ordered an extensive finan-cial audit of how theagency has been spendingmoney in recent years.

“I think that will giveeverybody a baseline onwhat has taken place there,where we are today andwhat we need to avoid inthe future,” Mead said.

Thus, it would have beenbetter if the CentralCommittee had waiteduntil after the court chal-lenge and inquiry werecompleted before consider-ing the issue, he said.

Separately, nothing hashappened after a lawyerrepresenting Hill demand-ed lawmakers substantiatestatements made in areport backing their rea-sons for passing the law.Attorney RobertDiLorenzo had set a 10-daydeadline for lawmakers toprove their statements inthe report or face unspeci-fied legal action.

A lawyer for the lawmak-ers responded with a lettersaying the report’s state-ments were substantiatedby facts, and the deadlinepassed with no legal actionoccurring.

DiLorenzo said this weekthat he likely would writeanother letter refuting thestatements made in thereport.

Three local highschools have been recog-nized for excellence byU.S. News & WorldReport.

Sheridan High Schoolreceived a silver awardthis year, and had the sec-ond highest ranking inthe state behind JacksonHole High School. This isthe second year the highschool has received a sil-ver award.

In addition, Big HornHigh School and TongueRiver High School wererecognized as top schools,taking bronze medals.BHHS previouslyreceived bronze medalsin 2012 and 2009.

More than 21,000 publicschools across the coun-try were analyzed by thereport.

The judging processhas three steps, deter-mining whether aschool’s students wereperforming better thanstatistically expected forthe average student inthe state, whether theschool’s least-advantagedstudents were perform-ing better than averagefor similar students inthe state and whichschools produced stu-dents who were college-ready using AdvancedPlacement orInternationalBaccalaureate test dataas benchmarks for suc-cess.

According to the U.S.News & World Reportwebsite, “…AmericanInstitutes for Researchimplemented U.S. News’scomprehensive rankingsmethodology, which isbased on the key princi-ples that a great highschool must serve all ofits students well, not justthose who are college-bound, and that it mustbe able to produce meas-urable academic out-comes to show the schoolis successfully educatingits student body across arange of performanceindicators.”

Trustees made right decision on bond measure

A reminder of home

Ten years ago, I never wouldhave thought the words, “I’mfrom Wyoming,” would evercome out of my mouth.

But on a recent trip to Portland,my family was sitting in one of themany local breweries asking aboutthe local fare when the waitressasked where we were from.

Initially, my mother respondedwith a question of her own, “Howcan you tell we’re not from here?”

The waitress’ response (“You’redressed too normal”) drew a chuckleand while my parents responded thatthey are from Wisconsin, I utteredthose four words I never thought I

would. I used to consider

myself quite thecity girl. Sure Icould rough it withthe best of them,but I felt most athome on busy citystreets, riding the“L” and meeting upwith old highschool friends scat-tered throughoutChicago for a mid-week meal. I

thrived on the hustle and bustle.When I moved to Wyoming, I

thought “OK, you can do anythingfor a year.”

After all, the scenery was nothingto whine about.

It is nearly five years later and I’mstill here — and happy.

But, back to the point.While I was in Portland, I noticed a

billboard advertising Wyoming. Oneside of the billboard featured a sce-nic photograph of Devil’s Tower. Idon’t remember what was on theother side (I only saw it briefly look-ing behind us on the interstate as wedrove past), but I’m sure it featuredeither a cowboy, the majestic moun-tains or some of our ever presentwildlife.

I grinned and pointed it out to myfamily. What a great depiction of ourstate. And, who would’ve thought I’dsee the advertisement there, in the29th largest city in the U.S.

It seems our statewide tourismadvertising is working, though,because despite having a great timevisiting with my family, each timewe drove past that billboard, I could-n’t wait to be home.

Red card this term

President Obama said once again last week thatSyria's "use of chemical weapons would be agame-changer."The president had played this

game many times before. "I havemade clear that the use of chemicalweapons is a game-changer," he saidin March, in one of his administra-tion's many repetitions of the term.

But what game does Obama pro-pose to change? "By game-changer,"ABC News' Jonathan Karl askedhim on Tuesday, "do you mean U.S.military action?"

The coach was not about to sharehis playbook. "By game-changer, Imean that we would have to rethink the range ofoptions," he volleyed.

Is it too late in the game to challenge Obama's use ofthis sports metaphor to respond to Syria? The veryreal possibility that the Bashar al-Assad regime isabout to use nerve agents to kill tens of thousands ofpeople is not a "game."

Where do we draw the line for childhood?T

hey lost me at the word "women."As so often happens with contempo-rary debate, arguments being prof-fered in support of allowing

teenagers as young as 15 (and possiblyyounger) to buy the "morning-after pill"without adult supervision are false ontheir premise.

Here's an experiment to demonstrate. Question 1: Do you think that women

should have access to Plan B, also knownas the morning-after pill, to be used attheir own discretion? Yes!

Question 2: Do you think that girls asyoung as 11 or 12 should be able to buy themorning-after pill without any adult super-vision? Didn't think so.

Question 3: If you answered yes to Question 2, are you a parent? Didn't

think so.Perhaps a few parents answered yes to

Question 3, but I suspect not many. Yet,repeatedly in the past several days, we'veheard the argument that any interferencewith the over-the-counter sale of Plan B toany female of any age is blocking awoman's right to self-determination.

Fifteen-year-olds, where the limit is cur-rently set, are girls, not women. Andfemale parts do not a woman make anymore than a correspondingly developedmale makes the proud possessor a man.

The debate arose after a federal judgelast month ordered that the governmentremove all obstacles to over-the-countersales of Plan B. As it stands, children asyoung as 15 can buy the drug without aprescription or parental knowledge. Theydo have to show identification proving theyare 15, which, as critics of such restric-tions have pointed out, is problematic for

many teens. Apparently the Obama

administration agreesthat young girls should-n't use so serious a drug,even though proclaimedmedically "safe," with-out adult supervision.The Justice Departmenthas given notice that itwill appeal the judge'sdecision, a move thatcould potentially back-fire and, in fact, removeall age barriers.

The dominant question is legitimate:Even if we would prefer that girls not besexually active so early in life, wouldn't werather they block a pregnancy before ithappens than wait and face the worseprospect of abortion?

The pros are obvious: Plan B, if takenwithin three days of unprotected sex,greatly reduces the chance of pregnancy. Ifa child waits too long to take the pill, how-ever, a fertilized egg could reach the uter-ine wall and become implanted, afterwhich the drug is useless.

There's no point debating whether suchyoung girls should be sexually active.Obviously, given the potential conse-quences, both physical and psychological,the answer is no. Just as obvious, our cul-ture says quite the opposite: As long asthere's an exit, whether abortion or Plan B,what's the incentive to await mere maturi-ty?

Advocates for lifting age limits on PlanB, including Planned Parenthood presidentCecile Richards, insist that the pill is uni-versally safe and, therefore, all age barri-

ers should be dropped. From a strictly util-itarian viewpoint, this may be well-advised. But is science the only determin-ing factor when it comes to the well-beingof our children? Even President Obama,who once boasted that his policies wouldbe based on science and not emotion, hasparental qualms about children buyingserious drugs to treat a condition that hasdeeply psychological underpinnings.

What about the right of parents to pro-tect their children? A 15-year-old can't getTylenol at school without parental permis-sion, but we have no hesitation about chil-dren taking a far more serious drug with-out oversight?

These are fair questions that deservemore than passing scrutiny — or indict-ments of prudishness. A Slate headlineabout the controversy goes: "The Politics ofPrude." More to the point: The slipperyslope away from parental autonomy is noparanoid delusion.

Americans may disagree about what issexually appropriate for their children.And everyone surely wishes to preventchildren from having babies. But publicpolicy should be aimed at involving ratherthan marginalizing parents.

To say that this controversy is strictlypolitical is no argument against debate.Politics is the debate about the role of gov-ernment in our lives. And the debate aboutPlan B is fundamentally about whethergovernment or parents have ultimateauthority over their children's well-being.

Trustees for the Northern WyomingCommunity College District madethe right choice when the groupvoted unanimously Monday to put a

bond measure before the voters later thisyear.

The special election, planned for Aug. 20,will allow Sheridan County residents toconsider the general obligation bondworth $15.85 million the college says itneeds to construct, furnish, equip andimprove the Technical Education Center,which was built in 1977.

Whether or not the measure passes —

and for the sake of the community itshould — the college would never get themoney if it didn’t ask. So why not ask?

The bond measure would have a fairlysmall impact on Sheridan County resi-dents’ wallets.

It is estimated that the measure wouldresult in a $1.92 per month increase forevery $100,000 of a property’s value. Mostpeople spend more than that on coffee eachweek, let alone each month.

Over the 16 years it is expected the taxeswill be collected over, property owners willpay less than $370 for every $100,000 of

property value. There likely is not a better place locally

that the money could be invested.The college has not asked for this kind of

help in a few decades. Over those same years, the institution

that has given so much to the Sheridancommunity has received millions of dol-lars in private funding.

It is the taxpayers’ turn to ante up.Sheridan College is one of our largest

employers — 361 employees according tothe school earlier this spring.

A healthy, growing community college

can help increase the workforce and there-fore the tax base in any given community.

There likely is no way to put into mone-tary terms the return on investment tax-payers could see from the expansion ofSC’s Technical Education Center.

But, one addage said over and over againis that Wyoming’s biggest export is itsyouth.

This project is one way to keep our youthhere in Sheridan and provide them withdecent-paying jobs.

Vote in support of the general bond issuethat will appear on the ballot Aug. 20.

SHS striving for drug and alcohol preventionS

aturday is the day for SheridanHigh School’s Prom. SHS staffand our community want ourstudents to have a positive and

memorable experience. Friday was aneventful day for Sheridan High Schoolstudents because it was the annualHealth Fair.

Every year we try to make the daythought provoking, engaging and rele-vant. We reinforce throughout theyear the elements of living a healthylifestyle, staying active, and knowingthat we have freedom in our choices,but we do not necessarily have choicesin the consequences.

One integral piece to this day wasthe guest speaker, Tiffany Eis, whoaddressed the student body about drugand alcohol use and the devastatingeffects it can have on one’s life andfamily. Eis shared her near death expe-rience because of drugs. Starting withmarijuana and prescription drugs as ateenager, and ending with metham-phetamine addiction, Her body wasravaged by substance abuse. By notcaring about her own personal health,her drug use resulted in two strokes,having both legs amputated below theknees, and an aortic heart valvereplacement on her 30th birthday.

She has a story that most will notbelieve until they meet her. Eis is now

a motivational speak-er who has made ither life mission toinfluence others tothink about theirchoices and learnabout addictivebehaviors.

This year I haveheard, “Pot makesme happy andrelaxed. How canthose feelings be badfor you? Besides,marijuana is natu-

ral!” “How can my mom’s painkillersbe bad for me when she takes themand they are prescribed by our familydoctor?”

In my profession as a guidance coun-selor at Sheridan High School, I hearstudents tell me these comments sononchalantly, it is alarming to me thatthey can be so misled about the trueimpact drugs and alcohol have ontheir developing brains.

I see the tenacious efforts from edu-cators, counselors, community mem-bers, Sheridan College, law enforce-ment, and our local ASAP Coalition;all trying to create preventative pro-grams based on data and best prac-tices.

So what more can we do? One of the

best statements I heard from a work-shop I attended recently was, “You donot have to work harder, just worksmarter.”

With that said, Sheridan HighSchool strives to do this by staying thecourse with effective drug and alcoholeducation and prevention.

The largest club at Sheridan HighSchool, with a membership of 239 stu-dents, is a group called W.A.T.Ch. Thisstands for We Are The Change.

W.A.T.Ch promotes a drug and alco-hol free lifestyle and shows others thatlife is about having fun, being healthy,and staying active.

In reality, studies show that themajority of our teenagers are makinghealthy choices and staying sober. ‘

In actuality it is the minority thatchooses to experiment with drugs andalcohol.

Along with W.A.T.Ch the Health Fair,and health curriculum, SHS encour-ages students and adults to thinkabout what they can do to improvetheir overall health.

It is Sheridan High School’s hopethat with a message as compelling asEis’, students will make wise choicesand think before they make a decisionthat could alter their life forever.

RED CARD: Phrase hasbecome a lazy reference

FROM 4

"Game-changer" — which has made its wayfrom sports to business to politics and now todiplomacy -- has replaced the "red line," aterm more easily understood by rogueregimes thinking of defying the UnitedStates. Game-change is a lazy reference, butthat's only part of the problem.

Obama and others in his administrationhave used the term in reference to food mar-keting standards ("truly a game-changer,"said the first lady), the JOBS Act ("a poten-tial game-changer," said the president),AmeriCorps, childhood-obesity prevention,Title IX, digital tutors, natural gas fromshale, the Internet, the IndependentMedicare Advisory Council, conversationsabout immigration, rail improvements,cyberspace research, and foreign-aid stan-dards.

So, when the president warns Syria thatchemical weapons are a "game-changer," isAssad's regime to assume he is using theterm in the childhood-obesity sense or theMedicare sense?

"Game-changer" arrived in politics duringthe Bush administration, becoming a cliche’in 2008 with John McCain's "game-changing"nomination of Sarah Palin as his runningmate, and was recounted in the book andmovie "Game Change."

Missing from all of this color commentary? The real "losers" in the budget-cut fights:

thousands of cancer patients turned away from clinics that could nolonger pay for their treatments; the seniors and the disabled goinghungry because their Meals on Wheels have been discontinued; theparents of preschoolers booted out of the Head Start program.

For them, and for the people of Syria awaiting a sarin gas attackfrom the sky, what happens in Washington isn't an athletic contest.Let's level the playing field for them, and put a red line around thewhole notion that governing is a game.

PPublic notices allow citizens to monitor their government and make sure that it isworking in their best interest. Independent newspapers assist in this cause bycarrying out their partnership with the people’s right to know through publicnotices. By offering an independent and archived record of public notices,newspapers foster a more trusting relationship between government and itscitizens.Newspapers have the experience and expertise in publishing public notices andhave done so since the Revolutionary War. Today, they remain an established,trustworthy and neutral source that ably transfers information betweengovernment and the people.Public notices are the lasting record of how the public’s resources are used and arepresented in the most efficient and effective means possible.

This photo was taken in front of the old restored brewery in Sheridan. Note the patchwork done on the original windows in the back-ground. Henry Neitmann, who is probably among those pictured, moved to Sheridan with his wife, Louisa, in 1893 and established ablacksmith shop. Among a number of occupations, Henry was assistant brewmaster for a time at the brewery and when prohibitioncame in he went to work as superintendent at the City Park, including taking care of the animals in the extensive zoo at the time. Louisaplanted and cared for many of the flower gardens in the Park. His Granddaughter, Henrietta Songer, is working to find us a number offamily photos, which we expect to run with additional information. The photo is from the Songer Collection of the Sheridan County Mu-seum's Memory Book Project. Anyone able to identify the men in this photo are asked to type and mail to the Sheridan County Museum,at 850 Sibley Circle, in Sheridan.

In Loving Memory

of

Edward “Bill” Heide

Passed away May 4, 2010

God saw that you were suffering and he said it’s time to go. And why sad times happen we may never know. We have lived and loved together

through many changing years. If Roses grow in Heaven God please pick Bill a big bouquet and

tell him how much we all love and miss him every day of the year. You never said you’re

leaving, you never said goodbye. All we have is memories and your picture in a frame. We will all

meet up in Heaven when God picks our day.

FAITHA8 THE SHERIDAN PRESS www.thesheridanpress.com SATURDAY, MAY 4, 2013

Lord set a guard over my mouthT

here’s an old Arabproverb that suggeststhe words of thetongue should pass

through three gatewaysbefore they are allowedpassed the lips: 1) Is it true?2) Is it kind? 3) Is it neces-sary? The Indian spiritualleader Sri Sathy Sai Baba(born in 1926) adapted theproverb by teaching,“Before you speak, think –is it necessary? Is it true?Will it hurt anyone? Will itimprove on the silence?”And, my mother, along withmany other mother’s,phrased it as, “If you can’tsay anything nice, thendon’t say anything at all.”

It seems we live in a timewhen it is preferable to putothers down and to sharewords that destroy ratherthan build up. Every day Ihear “news commentators”from the left and from theright reporting informationand opinions that disparagenot just the ideas or convic-tions of their opponents buttheir very humanity.

Regularly I receive e-

mails for-warded bywell mean-ing friendsinformingme thatthe worldis “goingto hell in ahand bas-ket” andplacingthe blameon a par-ticularperson, political party, ornon-American group.

I resist checkingFacebook because inter-twined with the beautifulpictures of my grand chil-dren and delightful postsfrom friends are posts thatinvite further division.Some of the political car-toons and distasteful jokes Ihear seem only to con-tribute to the tension,stress, and disease we expe-rience.

I can’t help but wonderwhy we pass along some ofthe things we do. Do wereally believe by sharing

them we are helping tomake the world a betterplace, the place for whichwe long when we pray, “Thywill be done on earth as itis in heaven” (Matthew6:10)?

Is this the way we wantothers to treat us as we livethe golden rule “So whatev-er you wish that otherswould do to you, do also tothem,” (Matthew 7:12).

Is this what Jesus had inmind when he taught, “Youhave heard that it was said,‘You shall love your neigh-bor and hate your enemy.’But I say to you, Love yourenemies and pray for thosewho persecute you….”(Matthew 5:43-44) or whenhe prayed to God, “I ask notonly on behalf of these, butalso on behalf of those wewill believe in me throughtheir words, that they allmay be one.” (John 17 20-21)

Next time we’re temptedto add a sizzling piece ofjuicy gossip to the fire, orforward some scandalousinformation or re-tell thatinappropriate joke maybe

we can remember to subjectour motives to these gates:Is it true? Is it kind? Is itnecessary? Will it improveon the silence?

Let’s not squander ourtime or minds or reputa-tions running down people,politicians, parties, nation-alities, minority groups oreach other when we’vebeen rubbed the wrong wayor because we disagree.

As I recall Jesus saidsomething about turningthe other cheek (Mathew5:39) and removing the login our own eye before wetake the speck out of theeye of another (Matthew7:3).

And long before that, Godhad something to say aboutbearing false witness(Exodus 20:16). May theprayer of Psalm 141:3,“Lord, set a guard over mymouth; keep watch over thedoor to my lips,” be ourprayer.

Shalom, Salaam & Peace.

Camels hand Broncs tough loss

BY BRAD ESTESTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

GILLETTE — There's not much more frustrating for aSheridan team than losing to Gillette.

Unless that loss comes with its share of controversy, andthen it's probably worse.

Sheridan led No. 1 Gillette 1-0 by way of a breakawaygoal from Lucas Wollenman late into Friday's contest, onlyto surrender two goals in a period of just eight minutes astime wound down to fall 2-1.

In the end, Broncs head coach Kevin Rizer wasn'tdwelling on two questionable calls that had an undeniableimpact on his team's loss in Gillette Friday night.

“The bottom line is you play 80 minutes you’ve got to playall 80 minutes," he said. "Like I told our young men thereafter, you can’t cede 30, 40 minutes of play to your oppo-nent and expect all of a sudden to gain momentum."

The Camels had the Broncs on their heels for most of thecontest, holding all but a few minutes of possession in thefirst half when Sheridan managed four shots and surren-dered six corners. Goalkeeper Jess Edens was stout in goaland largely responsible for the scoreless tie at the break.

Sheridan's one good chance in the first half was calledback after the ball settled in the net despite a collision nearthe goal line between Nick Gill and Camels defender JasenScalzo. A pause by the center referee ended when he askedhis assistant for help, and the play was ruled a hand ball inthe box and a free kick to Gillette, when it seemed Cameldefender had piled through the back of Gill as Gill hithome a cross from Daniel Sessions. Gill was pushed for-ward into the goal with his hands near the ball as it rolledacross the line in front of him.

The crowds heckled, as each yelled their views on bothsides, and the game continued 0-0 with 20 minutes left inthe first half.

On the boys’ side, Josiah Huffplaced first in both the 200 and 400meters.

Austen Scammon placed second in

both the 400 meters and 110 meterhurdles.

Cody Jolovich and Dillon Lyonsalso contributed strong results, fin-ishing third in the 400 meters andthird in long jump respectively.

Jolovich also placed second in the800 meters with a time of 2 minutes, 7seconds.

For his part, head coach ChuckWalters said he was pleased with histeam’s performance.

“It was a nice kind of tune-up forregionals,” he said. “I think a lot ofour kids are right where they need tobe.”

Bronc golfers third in CasperFROM STAFF REPORTS

CASPER — The Sheridan boys golf teamcontinued to show improvement as they post-ed a 327 team score at the Casper tournament.

The score was their best of the year, accord-ing to coach Larry Martogio and JackMavrakis led the way with a 72, good enoughfor sixth.

Ben Wollenzien took eighth in the tourna-ment with a 78. Bailey Bonnet and ForrestDeBolt rounded out the scoring with an 85and an 87 respectively.

The Broncs took third, behind Kelly Walshand Laramie.

“I think a lot had to do with a full week ofpractice with the weather,” Martoglio said.

On the girls side, the Lady Broncs finishedfourth. Hilary Lindell finished 11th overallwith a 97.

Maddie Farr and Kate Beardslee shot a 100and 105 for Sheridan.

“The girls are improving and out of eightteams we were fourth,” Martoglio said. “Itwas nice to be able to post a girls team score.”

The Natrona girls took top honors at themeet.

The Broncs and Lady Broncs will competein Gillette on Monday before hosting the con-ference meet May 13-14.

BY BRAD ESTESTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN — Sheridan withstood anearly goal, but was unable to overcomeGillette's last strike Friday.

Bouncing back from two tough losses toCheyenne East and Central last weekend,head coach Tom Racette didn't have a badword to say about his team's effort.

"We did play very well in the first half, itwas nice to get the equalizer before half-time," Racette said, after a late Camel goalbroke a 20-minute 1-1 draw, giving them anarrow 2-1 win. "The kids played reallywell, we didn’t get the result that we want-ed here, but we’ll come back nextThursday and see if we can’t get the onethat really counts."

Sheridan will play Gillette again

Thursday in the first round of the 4A EastRegional Tournament, with the winnerqualifying for the state tournament inRock Springs and the loser going home.

Sheridan responded well, playing on theroad, especially after Lady Camel EmmaJurewicz cleaned up a cross in the box justfive minutes into the game to put Gilletteup 1-0.

The Lady Broncs would drive forward

right from the restart and earn a penaltykick only to have Lauren Passini sail hershot over the crossbar.

Ten minutes later, Robbi Ryan wouldping a Maddy McClure cross into the backof the net off the left upright to tie thegame.

SCOREBOARD |

FROM B1

Minutes later, Bronc full-back Kameron Duncancleared a ball right off thegoal line that looked a sureCamel goal.

Joe Shassetz would getbehind the Camel defenseright before half only tohit his shot right at thekeeper.

In the second half,Wollenman would finishhis chance behind the backline. Like so many Broncgoals this season, stoutdefense at the back builtinto a speedy break forWollenman, who calmlysliced the ball well out ofreach of the Camel goalie.

"Even when we score agoal and take a 1-0 leadthere, they feel like theycan win because they’vehad the run of play," Rizersaid after the game. He hadindeed urged his squad toget a second goal as theylined up to resume play.

Then Wollenman wentdown hard in a collisionand left the game, and theCamels forward AlexGermann fired a hard shotfrom close range after run-ning up the right flank ofthe Broncs defense. Edensbobbled the shot, movingbackward toward the goal

line, quickly gobbling it upand moving away from thegoal to clear.

A whistle blew, and theball was ruled to have goneover the line on Edens dou-ble-take by the assistantreferee, 1-1. Both sidesagain were thrown intotheir respective emotions.

“We’ve got to control thethings we can control,”Rizer said. “I won’t com-ment on officiating, wecan’t control that.

"In the end, we had a 1-0lead with eight minutes toplay and gave it up.Questionable or not, wecould have gotten a thirdgoal in the game instead ofthem."

Not five minutes later,Camel forward BlaineChristansen slotted homea hard low cross fromGermann to give theCamels their 2-1 victoryand keep their recordunblemished.

While it was a clearpoint of debate Fridaynight, after the game,questioning heat-of-the-moment decisions is futileand the Broncs walkedaway with class, perhapsnot playing their bestgame of the season over-all.

Sheridan trailed the

Camels in offensivechances by a long shot;behind in shots on goaland in corner kicks to theCamels, whose first halfpossession win resulted ina game 15-5 shot advantageand a 8-2 corner kickadvantage.

“We just continue to talkabout the same things; it’sabout process," Rizer said."I didn’t feel like we hadmuch of the run of play inthat game so we have tocontinue to get better.”

Sheridan will finish inthe No. 4 spot in 4A Eaststandings and regionaltournament seeding won'tbe set until Monday after amake-up game betweenSouth and East is played.Regardless, as they pre-pare to play a loser-outgame and try to qualify forstate, Rizer sees his teamas one that hasn't yetreached its potential.

"I have faith in thisteam," he said. "When theyplay like they did lastweekend, they’re the bestteam in the state. Whenthey don’t play, when thecede an entire half to anopponent, all bets are off,who knows what can hap-pen. We’re going to talkabout playing a full 80, andplaying our tails off."

BRONCS: Gillette owns 15-5 shot advantage

LADY BRONCS: SHS to face Gillette again Thu.FROM B1

Sheridan will play Gillette againThursday in what will be a 2013 rubbermatch after each squad has stolen a 1-goalwin in their respective home game.Sheridan won 1-0 at home.

“I’m proud of them, they played theirhearts out start to finish," Racette saidafter his team pushed and held up offen-sively well for the second consecutivegame. The Lady Broncs won 4-1 over

Cheyenne South Monday.The game became physical in the sec-

ond half and had its fair share of yourrun of the mill Broncs-Camels crowdjeering and referee harrassment. Bothkeepers left the game after collisions inthe box, with the Lady Broncs SarahLeTempt filling in well for the shaken upBailey McLean.

"It got a little chaotic in the second half,but they played their hearts out, dideverything we asked them to do andthat’s all we can hope for," Racette said.

Horse a favorite of oil field workersWILLISTON, N.D. (AP) —

Two Williston Basin oil-men say they expect FracDaddy — the horse theyhave running in theKentucky Derby onSaturday — to be a favoriteof oil field workers every-where.

Billings, Mont., residentsCarter Stewart and KenSchlenker own the 3-year-old thoroughbred whosename is a take on the oildrilling technique knownas fracking.

"We've got a huge fanbase because we've madehim a tribute to all the oilfield workers in Americaand especially theWilliston Basin," Stewarttold The Forum newspaper.The Williston Basin spansthe Dakotas and Montana,with about two-thirds of

the acreage in westernNorth Dakota.

Stewart, a petroleumgeologist who spent theearly part of his career inNorth Dakota, runsStewart Geological Inc.and Cardinal Oil, an oiland gas operating compa-ny. He also is the largestshareholder ofMountainview Energy, apublicly traded oil and gascompany that operates inthe Williston Basin.Schlenker is an independ-ent petroleum land man.Together the men ownMagic City ThoroughbredPartners.

"Nobody's really payingany attention to us, but ourtrainer says our horse isdoing excellent," Stewartsaid.

Bismarck attorney

Lawrence Bender, who spe-cializes in oil and gas lawand is a longtime friend ofStewart, plans to travel toChurchill Downs inLouisville to cheer on FracDaddy.

Bender said he and hiswife follow the Derbyevery year and are excitedto sit in an owner's suitewith friends who have ahorse competing for the $2million first-place prize.

"I can't think of anythingthat could top that,"Bender said.

Frac Daddy's odds ofwinning were posted at 50-1 on Friday, but Stewartsaid he is optimistic hishorse can run for theroses.

"It's a horse race," hesaid. "Everybody's got ashot."

DEAR ABBYPauline Phillips and Jeanne Phillips

If you're among the 27 mil-lion North Americans withasthma, chances are it's trig-gered by allergies to airborneirritants in your environ-ment (a whopping 75 percentof adults with sensitive air-ways have allergic asthma).Unfortunately, only 25 per-cent of people with asthmaknow what they're allergic toand how to avoid the triggersthat make their airways con-strict, swell and clog up withmucus. That may be whymore than half of all PWA(people with asthma) have atleast one asthma attack eachyear -- and why that scary "Ican't breathe" feeling sends ahalf-million folks to the emer-gency room annually (and,we hate to add, needlesslykills thousands).

Clearly, if you have allergicasthma, identifying andavoiding your triggers -- andsetting up a smart asthmatreatment plan -- could be alifesaver.

The allergens that are themost common wheezemakersinclude pollen (especiallygrass pollen), dust mites,mold, household pests likecockroaches and pets of allkinds. So you want to get hipto the asthma triggers andstart hunting for your haz-ards.

Here's how to become anallergy sleuth.

No. 1: Write down the facts,and nuthin' but the facts.Your doc can give you anallergy scratch test to IDsome culprits, and then youcan keep a daily diary record-ing where you've been, whatyou've done and how your

breathing feels. You'll see pat-terns that might surpriseyou. Ask yourself: Was I out-doors on a high-pollen day?Did I change bed linens (dustmites thrive in bedding)? DidI vacuum the rug my dogsleeps on, or visit a friendwho has cats? Did I repotplants or work around damp,wet areas? Look for trends,and discover situations thatseem to consistently triggeran attack. One tip: Even ifyou have allergic asthma,non-allergy triggers like ciga-rette smoke, cold air andexercise also can cause youtrouble.

No. 2: Update (or set up)your asthma action plan.This asthma action and con-trol plan, designed by youand your doctor, includesspecifics on using a peak flowmeter to check lung function,sets up a routine for takingyour controller medications,outlines when to use a quick-relief (rescue) medicine suchas an inhaler, and explainshow to recognize signs ofworsening asthma quicklyand when it's time to get to ahospital or call 911! A goodplan also covers the bestways to sidestep triggers.

No. 3: Reduce your allergicreactions: Ask your doctor ifyou need allergy medicationsor immunotherapy treatmentto lessen allergic reactions. Anew study in JAMA, TheJournal of the AmericanMedical Association, saysyou don't necessarily need toget allergy shots to lessenallergic reactions. Self-administered daily dropsunder the tongue, also called

sublingual therapy, work justas well! (Their case hasn'tbeen proven to the U.S. Foodand Drug Administration yet,but they've been doing it inEurope for years.)

No. 4: Sidestep triggers: Payattention to local pollenreports (find yours on TV oronline at pollen.com), andstay indoors when counts arehighest early morning tomidday. Run the air condi-tioner during high-pollenperiods, and shower whenyou come indoors to removesticky pollen from skin andhair.

Keep animal friends out ofthe bedroom. Wash your petweekly -- or have someoneelse do it. Put impermeable,allergen-proof covers (thebest have a pore size of 1micron) on mattresses, boxsprings and pillows so you'renot exposed to dust mitedroppings (that's what thetrigger is, not the mites them-selves). Wash sheets and bed-ding weekly in hot water ofat least 130-140 degreesFahrenheit. Remove all rugsfrom your bedroom (pet dan-der and those dead skin cellsthat dust mites love to munchstay in rugs). And use wash-able window treatments.

Fix leaky faucets and mois-ture problems in and aroundyour house. Use dehumidi-fiers. Get help keeping mold-prone areas like bathroomsclean and disinfected. Covertrash and keep counters andfloors free of food and greaseto minimize the chance ofcockroaches and other pests.

DEAR ABBY: I'm a 13-year-old girl who has been tryingto give my father a secondchance. I was taken awayfrom my parents when I was8 because they were on drugs.I haven't seen my father forthree years, but now that he's

living with my grandparentsand me, I decided to give hima second chance.

He has been very "hand-sy"with me -- giving me mas-sages, kissing my cheek --and this all makes me veryuncomfortable. I thought it

was because he hasn't seenme in a while, but today as Iwas leaving to go to mymom's, he slapped my butt asI walked out the door. NowI'm scared. I spend a lot ofthe day at home with himalone. I don't want things toget out of hand. Any advice? -- WORRIED IN DELAWARE

DEAR WORRIED: Yourfather has lost three yearswith you. He may not realizethat his "little girl" is nolonger a child. That is why itis important that you TELLhim what he's doing makesyou uncomfortable. Youshould also tell your motherand grandparents aboutwhat's happening and that itscares you. You do not haveto tolerate unwanted contact,and if it persists, report it toa teacher or counselor atschool or contact me again.

DEAR ABBY: I have adilemma. I work in a smallhigh school in a student sup-port position. Girls come intomy office who are pregnantand excited about it! Tellingthem congratulations for put-ting themselves in this posi-tion seems counterproduc-tive, or like I am endorsingthis choice. I don't!

No high school girls -- orboys, for that matter -- shouldput themselves in a positionto be a parent when theythemselves aren't fully grownand independent. I feel likesaying, "You have ruinedyour life" instead, but I holdmy tongue. What do you sug-gest? -- DON'T WANT TOENCOURAGE THEM INILLINOIS

DEAR DON'T WANT TOENCOURAGE: Your job is tosupport the students, not tocondemn or endorse theirpredicament. Telling a preg-nant girl she has ruined herlife isn't helpful. What youneed to do is encourage thegirl to get a diploma whileshe can.

Too many girls fail to com-plete their high school educa-tion when they have a baby,and it impedes their abilityto provide for themselves andtheir child because they aresuited only for minimum-wage jobs. If you are enthusi-astic about helping them,your positive attitude may becontagious and inspire themto succeed.

TAURUS (April 20-May20): There are only so manytimes you should allow peo-ple to let you down beforeyou decide to give up onthem. If you are patient,however, you will find thata lack of cooperation andhelpfulness is just a passingphase.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20):If you are wise, you won'tdisguise it. You may becalled upon to act as a ref-eree, so don't play coy or actevasive. Steer clear of newinvestments or making anychanges to your financialarrangements.

business with them.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):

Meet your goals. Somethingof value can come from longhours and self-discipline,even if you can't see con-crete results now. The firesof ambition can be slow toignite. Once lit, however,they glow steadily.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):Don't waste a minutedawdling or doodling. Youmay need to work hard atunpleasant tasks. The peo-ple you do business with orwork for are looking for in-stant gratification or aquick turnaround.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):Don't be caught in thecrosshairs of a passing dis-pute. Overwhelming diffi-culties and complicatedsituations will dispersevery soon. Wait out tempo-rary mood slump beforetaking irrevocable actions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.21): A rush to judgmentcould mean a brush withtrouble. Don't be resentful ifa significant other is toobusy to give you the atten-tion you deserve. Stick tocurrent projects and don'tstart anything new.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): All's well that endswell. A vote of confidencefrom a friend or partnermay bring relief from try-ing conditions. Be generouswith your favorite peopleand someone will help youout of a jam.

IF MAY 6 IS YOURBIRTHDAY: Keeping upwith the Joneses may be inthe back of your mind in themonths ahead. You couldalso become obsessed withromantic fantasies. Don'toverextend yourself be-tween now and the end ofJuly as you experience un-expected obligations, lestyou be tempted to make un-wise business decisions. Re-assess your finances andrelationships in Septemberor early October when yourbusiness savvy is at a peak.Next January is a fabuloustime to accept opportunitiesthat come along and whenlucky stars can turn a detri-ment into an asset or a mis-take into a triumph.

Hints from Heloise Heloise

Simple, Yet So HelpfulDear Heloise: A friend of

mine recently had a death inher family. Many relatives andfriends left Mass cards and re-membrance cards at the fu-neral home. Unfortunately,most of the cards had only theperson's name. My friend saidshe had to spend several hoursLOOKING UP NAMES ANDADDRESSES on her computer.My hint is, please, friends andrelatives, put your address onthe cards. They are supposed tobe acknowledged with a thank-you note. It's just a simplething, but it's more helpful thanyou can imagine. -- A Friend ofthe Family, via email

Your hint will help a lot ofpeople. Also, please put a lastname down -- you'd be amazedhow many Tom and Sues orBill and Janes there are! --Heloise

PET PALDear Readers: Linda Little

sent a photo of her schnauzer,Doc, posing by the water. Doclooks just like my little schnau-zer Cabbie, whom I love dearly.To see Doc's portrait, visit my

website atwww.Heloise.comand click on "Pets."-- Heloise

TENNIS-SHOEHELPER

Dear Heloise: Mydaughter isn't very fond of hav-ing to tie her tennis shoes.Seems she is always in a hurry.So instead of purchasing costlylocking-type shoestrings,which make tie shoes into slip-ons, I recently purchased ahandful of "cord locks" on theInternet.

They are very inexpensive -- afew cents each. These thingswill look familiar, and they areso easy to use. Just lace theshoe as usual, and slide a cordlock on the ends of both sides ofthe laces. From there, tie asmall knot at the end of thelaces, and use the cord lock toslide the laces tighter or looser.It works great and is a greatway to make all tie tennis shoesinto "slip-ons"! -- Susan in Ohio

HEARING-AID CLEANINGHINT

Dear Heloise: My hearingaids have a vent hole, which ac-

cumulates wax from wearing.The tool that I was given toclear it out is a thin, plastic,wirelike device that never hasbeen sufficient.

One day, I bought somebrushes sold for cleaningbraces in a person's mouth. Thesmall, round brush is the per-fect length and width to clearout the vent hole. They usuallyare made of a soft plastic, arewashable and are inexpensive.I hope this can help some ofyour readers! -- A.S. in San An-tonio

HANDY SEAM RIPPERDear Heloise: I read your col-

umn in the (Greenville, Texas)Herald-Banner, and finallyhave a hint to send in!

My co-worker just asked me ifI have one of those itty-bittyscrewdrivers for eyeglassframes. I checked, but all I hadwas a seam ripper. She tried itout of desperation, and lo andbehold, it worked! Thanks forall the awesome hints you andyour readers share! -- Sharon D.in New Orleans

Bridge Phillip Alder

ANOTHER REASONFOR FOURTH SUIT

Christian NestellBovee, an epigrammaticwriter who died in 1904,said, "Music is thefourth great materialwant -- first food, thenclothes, then shelter,then music."

If alive today, hewould surely relegatemusic to fifth behindfood, clothes, shelter andbridge.

In bridge, the fourthbid in an uncontestedauction is game-forcingwhen it is in the fourthsuit. Usually, responderis hunting for the bestgame, but sometimes hewants to suggest a slam.

Look at this deal.When North hears hispartner rebid one spade,he knows game inspades should be easyand that a slam might bepossible. Jumping im-mediately to four spadesdoes not do justice to his

hand. Instead,he first forcesto game withtwo diamonds.Then, afteropener contin-ues with three

clubs, North jumps tofour spades, which logi-cally is a slam-try. NowSouth, with such a greathand, can take controlwith (Roman Key-Card)Blackwood before bid-ding seven spades orseven no-trump.

After West leads the di-amond queen to the bareace, how should Southplan the play?

If declarer can playspades safely, he willhave 13 tricks: fourspades, one heart, twodiamonds and six clubs.

The right play is tocash the spade king,planning to cross todummy's ace. Thatworks great here, uncov-ering the 4-1 break. How-ever, East might throwSouth off the scent by

playing his spade nineunder declarer's king. IfSouth thinks that is asingleton, he will nextcash his spade queenand go down one.

Watch out for thisfalsecard.

Mickelson takes charge at Quail HollowCHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Phil Mickelson

has figured out the secret to the greens atQuail Hollow. Or maybe he’s just had a lot ofgood bounces for two days.

Mickelson opened with a pair of 15-footbirdie putts, dropped in a 40-foot putt at theturn and made back-to-back birdies late inhis round Friday. He finished with a 5-under67 for a two-shot lead going into the weekendat the Wells Fargo Championship.

Quail Hollow, renowned for pristine condi-tions, had everything go wrong with springand wound up with putting surfaces that aremostly choppy with brown patches wherethe grass has died. Two greens were entirelyreplaced by sod last week.

Despite that, Mickelson has taken only 50putts in two rounds. And the most stagger-ing statistic of all? He hasn’t missed frominside 10 feet.

“I think that the greens are putting very,very good, obviously, because I’ve puttedthem well,” Mickelson said. “But with thembeing slower, we’re able to putt them aggres-sively. We’re able to take some of the breakout without fear of racing it way by. And I’vemade a concerted effort to leave uphill putts,which has allowed me to putt even moreaggressive and play even less break. Andthat’s made a big difference in my putting.”

For a tournament that already has had sixmajor champions win in the 10-year history,Mickelson is missing from the list. And it’s atitle he dearly wants. He was at 9-under 135heading into the weekend, though there isplenty of star power around him.

Nick Watney played with Mickelson the

opening two rounds and looks efficient,going bogey-free on the back nine. He had a70 and was at 7-under 137, along with GeorgeMcNeill (68) and Scott Gardiner, the 37-year-old tour rookie who had missed eightstraight cuts coming into the Quail Hollow.Gardiner, the first Aboriginal Australian tobecome a pro golfer, ran off four straightbirdies at the turn and had a 67.

Rory McIlroy struggled with the speed ofthe greens — he felt they were much fasterthan Thursday — but rallied on the frontnine with three birdies for a 71. LeeWestwood twice hit into the water on thepar-5 seventh and still escaped with a bogeyby making a 25-foot putt. He had a 68. Theywere in a group at 6-under 138 that includedRod Pampling, the ninth alternate and lastman in the field.

Sergio Garcia twice made news for hiswork on the greens.

Garcia used his wedge to knocked in a 5-footer on the third hole, only this wasn’t anyprotest about the overall conditions of QuailHollow. He had a scrape mark left by cleats,which he described as 3 inches long andnearly an inch high.

“I thought the only way I could make thisputt was to get lucky,” Garcia, and he wasn’tfeeling lucky on this day. The prudent movewas to hit a 52-degree wedge, chip it just overthe rough turf, and he pulled it off beautiful-ly. It was a throwback to the days of thestymie, when players didn’t mark their golfballs, or to a generation ago in summerevents when spike marks could be an inchhigh.

Fla. Legislaturewon’t helpDolphins

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) —Florida’s oldest professional sportsfranchise — the Miami Dolphins —was dealt a crushing blow Fridaywhen the Florida Legislature endedits session without passing any fund-ing plan that would assist the team’squest to refurbish its stadium.

The refusal of the GOP-controlledLegislature to aid the team wasn’tjust a defeat for the Dolphins — itcould also sack South Florida’sefforts to lure another Super Bowl tothe region in the next few years.

Others who lost out include thecity of Orlando, which was hopingfor help to lure a Major LeagueSoccer team, as well as theJacksonville Jaguars and DaytonaInternational Speedway.

The professional sports teams wereall backing a Florida Senate proposalthat would have allowed each ofthem to compete for a share of statetax dollars. The measure would havecreated a process for pro teams to viefor $13 million a year in state incen-tives.

But the House — led by SpeakerWill Weatherford — refused to bringup the legislation.

“I think part of the complicationwas the fact that it wasn’t just theDolphins,” Weatherford said. “Youhad five or six different franchisesthat were looking for a tax rebate,and that’s serious public policy.You’re talking about hundreds ofmillions of dollars and I think theHouse just never got comfortablethere when the session ended.”

But the defeat was especially sting-ing for the Dolphins since the teamhad already agreed to pay for aMiami-Dade County referendum onwhether to raise local bed taxes toassist the team. The initial Senatebill authorized the use of the taxes.The failure of legislators to actmakes the May 14 ballot questionmeaningless, even though early andabsentee balloting had alreadybegun.

Dolphins owner Stephen Rossblasted Weatherford, saying in astatement that the Wesley ChapelRepublican had promised to at leastlet the legislation come up for a voteon the House floor.

“He put politics before the peopleand the 4,000 jobs this project wouldhave created for Miami Dade, andthat is just wrong,” Ross said.

Weatherford, in a tweet, later con-tended that it wasn’t true that he hadpromised an up or down vote.

Ross also said that the decisionsent a “terrible message” to NationalFootball League owners who willsoon decide whether to bring a SuperBowl back to Florida in either 2016or 2017.

Knicks

hold off Celtics BOSTON (AP) — Carmelo

Anthony scored 21 points and theNew York Knicks held on afterblowing most of a 26-point leadto beat the Boston Celtics 88-80 inGame 6 on Friday night andadvance in the postseason for thefirst time since 2000.

Iman Shumpert scored 15 ofhis 17 points in the second half,when the Celtics cut a 75-49deficit to four points. ButAnthony made a jumper to giveNew York an 81-75 lead and thensank a 3-pointer, then J.R. Smithconverted a three-point play torestore the double-digit lead theKnicks had nursed most of thegame.

Jeff Green scored 21 points forthe Celtics, who were hoping tobecome the first NBA team toadvance in the playoffs after los-ing the first three games.

The Knicks had not won a play-off series since Patrick Ewingand Latrell Sprewell (and currentbackup center Marcus Camby)helped them reach the 2000Eastern Conference finals. Theywill open the second roundSunday at home against theIndiana Pacers.

Paul Pierce scored 14 points on4-for-18 shooting, making one ofnine 3-point attempts. KevinGarnett had 15 points and 10rebounds for the Celtics, whonow face another offseason oftalk whether to break up theaging core that won the fran-chise’s record 17th NBA title in2008 and returned to the finalstwo years later.

PACERS 81, HAWKS 73

ATLANTA (AP) — George Hilland David West each scored 21points and Indiana withstood afurious Atlanta comeback in thefourth quarter, closing out theopening-round playoff series inGame 6.

The home team had won everygame until the Hawks returnedto Philips Arena and set a fran-chise record with just ninepoints in the second quarter on 1-of-15 shooting. The defense brokedown in the third, allowing Hilland West to combine for 22points, and the Pacers built a 65-50 lead going to the fourth.

The Hawks showed some heart,slicing it to 76-73 on Al Horford’sdunk with 2:13 remaining.

But the comeback fizzled there,and the Pacers advanced to faceNew York.

Roy Hibbert added 17 pointsand 11 rebounds. LanceStephenson also had 11rebounds.

Denny Hamlin runs 16 laps at Talladega SuperspeedwayTALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) — Denny

Hamlin ran 16 laps at full speed Friday,turned his car over to Brian Vickers andthen didn’t exactly rule himself out ofrunning a full race this weekend as herecovers from a back injury.

Hamlin insisted he’ll again give Vickersthe car at some point Sunday at TalladegaSuperspeedway.

But with a sly smile, Hamlin left thedoor open to run a full race in his returnfrom a compressed fracture of a vertebrain his lower back. After missing fourraces, he was cleared Thursday to get backin the car this weekend and said doctorsgave him permission to run the entirerace.

He said his intention was to “take a

knee” after the start by getting out of thecar during a caution and allowing Vickersto finish the race. That slightly contradict-ed crew chief Darian Grubb, who said ear-lier Friday they’d play race-day by ear andsee how the race flows.

When asked about that after his practicestint, Hamlin stammered about his trueplans.

“Ummm, yeah. I’d say there’s going to bea caution at some point and I’d like to getout and just ensure myself of one moreweek of healing,” Hamlin said.

So bet on Hamlin getting out of the car?“Is there that bet in Vegas?” Hamlin

asked.He doesn’t particularly like Talladega,

or restrictor-plate racing, for that matter.

But he found himself tossing and turningThursday night, unable to sleep becausehe was so anxious to get back in his fire-suit, back into his race car and back ontothe track.

“If it wasn’t for my crew chief, I wouldhave ran it out of gas,” he said of his onlyrun Friday. “I just wanted to feel speedagain. We’re competitors and when yousee the people on TV in other sports fight-ing through injuries to come back to thefield or the court, we feel that same thing.We have alligator blood. I don’t know whatto say. We’re a different breed. We’re will-ing to throw caution to the wind just to getback to what we are doing.”

His return drew mixed reactions in thegarage.

Race car driving by nature is dangerousand every day on the job has its risks.Now Hamlin is coming back from a seri-ous injury that not everyone would treatthe same.

“This is how we make a living,” ClintBowyer said. “You’ve got to put food onthe table and we’re all in the same boat.We’re all given a wonderful opportunity toget paid doing what we love to do, so any-time a racer is OK to get back in the car,he’s going to do it whether he’s sore orwhatever the case is. We’d do it even if itdidn’t pay anything. It’s just the nature ofthe beast.”

Jeff Gordon, at 41 years old and thefather of two young children, wasn’t surewhat his approach would be.

Mayweather, Guerrero square off in welterweight title fightLAS VEGAS (AP) — He claims to be

more mature now, chastened by a stint injail and eager to be just as much a busi-nessman as a fighter. Indeed, FloydMayweather Jr. acted almost statesman-like earlier this week when RobertGuerrero’s father began screaming thathe was a woman beater who would finallyget beaten himself Saturday night.

“The fighters are the ones who fight, notthe fathers,” Mayweather said calmly.

If it’s an act, it’s a pretty good one.Armed with a new six-fight televisiondeal with Showtime that should keep him

the world’s highest paid athlete,Mayweather has for the most part takenthe high road while promoting his fightagainst Robert Guerrero as must-see TVfor anyone who has an extra $69.95 for thepay-per-view.

Mayweather weighed in at 146 poundson Friday. Guerrero checked in at theweight-class limit of 147.

The two meet in a scheduled 12-roundwelterweight title match at the MGMGrand hotel in what will be Mayweather’sfirst fight in a year. It’s also his first ringappearance since serving a jail term for

assaulting the mother of his children, anexperience he said helped him grow up.

Sometimes, though, he just can’t helphimself. The old Mayweather surfaces,complete with the bad-boy persona thathas made him the biggest draw in boxing.

It could be that Mayweather as the pro-moter is trying to give a fight that stillhasn’t sold out some much needed buzz.More likely, though, is that he’s lookingfor a bit of a mental edge for a bout that,despite the odds, could be very competi-tive.

He called Guerrero a hypocrite for pro-

moting himself as a devout Christian, andthen getting arrested on gun charges inNew York. He mocked him for bringing uphis jail sentence when he may be facingone himself.

And a few days before the fight he evenaccused Guerrero of trying to win fans byusing his wife’s leukemia — which sheovercame with a bone marrow transplant— as a way to get sympathy.

“I’m glad she was able to beat leukemia,which is a great thing,” Mayweather said.“But they keep selling the same story. It’stime to talk about something different.”
