Throughout history, books have taught that Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. But there were others who also played a role.

The first goal of 19th cen-tury abolitionist Frederick Douglass, the namesake of the Douglass Gym on Olivia Street in Bahama Village, was emancipation for the slaves, then racial equality and final-ly feminism. He fought for those beliefs all of his life. Page 3A

MEMPHIS, Tenn.: The grim possibility that a missing 7-week-old girl is seriously hurt or dead hung over police Friday as they searched for the baby in northeast Memphis.

For a second day, police used cadaver dogs as they scoured homes, backyards and a pond for missing Aniston Walker, whose mother was charged Friday with abuse and neglect in the baby’s disappearance. Page 7A

Todd Stevens

The Key West police detec-tive assigned to oversee the case of a motorist who fled from officers and later died at the hospital has been repri-manded, removed from the

detective bureau and placed on road patrol.

Officer Todd Stevens received a stern letter of rep-rimand from Capt. Scott Smith on Dec. 12 for his failure to keep in contact with Lower Keys Medical Center staff regarding the condition of 61-

year-old Charles Eimers, who died Dec. 4. after he lost con-sciousness while police were handcuffing him at South Beach on Thanksgiving Day.

“I concurred and approved the reprimand,” Chief Donie Lee wrote to The Citizen in an email Friday. “I also concurred

and approved his transfer out of the Criminal Investigations Division. His actions or lack thereof were completely unac-ceptable and embarrassing to the department.”

The architectural firm that designed the Freeman Justice Center in Key West has agreed to pay Monroe County $700,000 as part of a legal settlement over engineering

woes with the courthouse, attorneys said Thursday.

Monroe County sued archi-tect Jose Gonzalez, whom it fired in October 2005 amid accusations of mismanage-ment and safety issues.

The civil lawsuit in cir-cuit court was filed in 2008.

Specifically, the county alleged breach of contract and neg-ligence in its lawsuit, citing design flaws such as acous-tic issues in the courtrooms, flooring issues, air conditioner placement and other flaws, said Assistant Monroe County Attorney Nat Cassel.

The settlement was actual-ly breached in September, but attorneys didn’t finalize the agreement until this week. “I would only say that our client strongly contested the allegations made by Monroe

The Monroe County clerk’s office, which is tasked with overseeing millions of dollars in county contracts and funds, botched the payroll this week for roughly 100 county employees.

Some employees were short-ed as much as $300 to $400 in their paychecks and direct deposits, which were issued Thursday.

The Clerk of Circuit Court Office handles the payroll for roughly 500 county employ-ees, in addition to overseeing millions of dollars a year in county contracts and perform-ing financial audits.

The city of Key West isn’t back-ing down from its decision to put out to bid the island’s tow-ing services, despite industry talk that lawyers promising lawsuit payoffs are already hovering.

The island’s mayor says he isn’t losing any sleep over the threat of postbid litigation by tow compa-nies that don’t win the city con-tract, a two-year deal estimated by towing veterans to be worth at least $100,000 annually.

Two towing company own-ers said Friday they have been approached by several attorneys promising big payoffs if they sue the city in the event they don’t win the contract.

“The city attorney says the city has every right to do this,” Mayor Craig Cates said Friday. “I was hoping the tow companies could work it out; they tie up so much of the city’s time with allegations. Everything has to be investigated. We felt it’s a cost savings.”

This dad went too far in helping his son, sheriff’s depu-ties said.

Harold Cantres, 36, of Big Coppitt, and his 20-year-old son Jack Cantres of Key West were both arrested Thursday on suspicion of conspiring to smuggle marijuana into the Monroe County Detention Center.

The elder Cantres faces two felony counts — smuggling contraband into jail and pos-session with the intent to sell marijuana — while his off-spring was booked with the contraband crime.

Detectives were tipped off recently that an inmate at the Stock Island Jail, Jack Cantres, had asked his dad to help him sneak marijuana into the detention center, said Deputy Becky Herrin on Friday.

The plan was to have his dad

hide the marijuana inside a trash can at the Miami Subs restaurant on North Roosevelt Boulevard. Someone else would pick it up and bring it to the jail, Herrin said.

Jack Cantres is serving time on unrelated drug charges.

Deputies were on the scene Thursday when Harold Cantres planted the drugs inside a restroom trash can. He later admitted knowing the weed was on its way to the jail, saying he was “doing a favor for his son.”

Harold Cantres also had $1,178 in cash on him. Deputies seized the money as possible profits from illegal business.

“A person commits a terrible crime, is tried and convicted, sentenced to death row, and then it takes 40 years to put these people out of their own misery. Forty years for grieving family members to endure. Forty years of living off my taxpayer money. Why does the death in “death row” take so long to carry out? Let’s fix this problem.”

“What happened to those elec-tronic devices that disabled shop-ping carts in the parking lots? Winn Dixie and Publix, look no farther than Duck Avenue to get your carts back. Please don’t blight our beautiful community.”

“In France and Italy they have solved the problem of stray grocery carts. To use a cart you must insert a one Euro coin into the cart lock. When you return the cart , the coin is released. You have your coin (worth $1.34) and the store has their cart. The town has neither.”

“You know who you are. What you did to my family was the cruelest thing a person could do. Just when things were getting better, you ruined it all. A day doesn’t go by where I’m not worried or paranoid that things are just going to fall apart again. I don’t even look for-ward to good things because they don’t last. You’ve ruined life and I don’t think it’s going to get better for a long time.”

“Mark Finigan, thank you for your dedication to the City of Key West over these past few years. You are a great leader in our community and have moved the city in a posi-tive direction. We will surely miss you.” “Love the cool weather! I wish it would stay in the low 70s to mid 60s during the day and in the 50s at night for the next three months, it would be great. I am so dog-gone tired of the is heat and high humidity. Hopefully in the next five to 10 years I would have enough money saved to move up to the mainland close to the borderline of Georgia.”

“Thank you to the man who gave us all new hoodies last night.”

“In 2013, Commissioner Mark Rossi was absent at 26 percent of the city commission meetings — he missed six of them. The other com-missioners missed, at most, one meeting each.”

“I hope all the former com-missioners and planning board members were caught in the gridlock on North Roosevelt today, late for work, late for dinner, what-ever. Thanks to you numbskulls, Key West is what it has become — overcrowded, dirty, charmless and tacky. Shame on you.

One airlifted in crash A 34-year-old Ohio man was airlifted

Thursday night after crashing into a wood-en utility pole at U.S. 1 and Gulfview Drive, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

Timothy Fielding of Xenia, Ohio, was driving a 2014 Nissan SUV northbound at Mile Marker 74.5 when he lost control, struck a pole and knocked down two street signs, reports state. He was airlifted to Miami.

Rear passenger Christy Fielding, 32, also of Xenia, Ohio, was holding a 2-year-old child in her lap at the time of the crash, and neither were wearing seat belts, according to reports.

The driver was cited for failure to main-tain a lane and for not having the juvenile in a child restraint seat, reports state.

Erratic woman arrestedA Miami woman was jailed Friday

after she was found dancing near Coral Isles Church, just north of a school, with her face painted white and hitting her car with a bungee cord, deputies said.

The woman was traveling in a sto-len car, said Deputy Becky Herrin.

Coral Shores High School Assistant Principal Blake Fry reported the woman acting strangely on school grounds at 7:30 a.m.

Elizabeth Quintana, 43, had parked her BMW on U.S.1, blocking a lane.

“She said something unintelligible about ‘Disney’ and there were ran-dom things written all over the car in pink marker,” Herrin said.

For Upper Keys, call 305-853-3211 for drop-off times, 305-289-2430 for Marathon, and 305-745-3184 for Lower Keys. Medications from businesses will not be accepted. Those dropping off should keep drugs in the appro-priate prescription bottle.

The aim of a community project was to clean up along the U.S. 1 corri-dor and on a couple of side streets in the city. There were approximately 50 participants total, from the sheriff’s office, Layton, Conch Key, Marathon and the Upper Keys. The majority of the trash came from U.S. 1, with a total of 3,320 pounds removed from the area.

Throughout history, books have taught that Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. But there were others who also played a role.

The first goal of 19th cen-tury abolitionist Frederick Douglass, the name-sake of the Douglass Gym on Olivia Street in Bahama Village, was emancipation for the slaves, then racial equality and finally feminism. He fought for those beliefs all of his life.

Kenneth Morris Jr., great-great-great grand-son of Douglass, and great-great grandson of Booker T. Washington, has followed in the footsteps of his ancestors.

A modern-day abolitionist, he has taken up the cause of human traffick-ing and modern-day slavery, especial-

ly in terms of the sexual exploitation of children.

“I thought slavery ended with Frederick Douglass,” Morris said Friday afternoon. “After reading a story in National Geographic about

modern-day slavery seven years ago, I was very touched. I

couldn’t look my two daughters in the eyes

and do nothing.”Morris will pres-

ent “History, Human Rights and the Power of One” at the Douglass gym at 5 p.m. Sunday. He will also be speak-

ing at Florida Keys Community College at

6 p.m. Tuesday.On June 19, Morris and

his mother, Nettie Wash-ington Douglass, attended

the dedication of the Frederick Doug-lass statue at the nation’s Capitol. The seven-foot bronze statue of Douglass joins fellow black Americans Rosa

Parks, Martin Luther King Jr. and Sojourner Truth on permanent display in the Capitol’s Emancipation Hall.

Descendant of the two most tower-ing male figures in black history prior to Dr. King, Morris, who now lives in California, heads the Frederick Douglass Family Initiative (FDFI), devoted to preventing human trafficking.

According to coali-tion founder Tim Gratz, the effort to bring Morris to Key West began many months ago after Gratz heard Morris speak at the National Day of Prayer in Washington, D.C., early last year.

The coalition had sponsored rallies to increase local awareness of human trafficking, especially that of children.

“There’s even a local connection,” Gratz reported. “Frederick Douglass was once U.S. ambassador to Haiti

and he stopped in Key West en route to Haiti.”

Since 2007, FDFI achievements include reaching approximately 60,000 middle and high school students

through the Frederick Douglass Dialogues Tour; appearing on television, radio and in newspaper arti-cles (including CNN, Newsweek Video, PBS, the Washington Post and USA Today); cre-ating the Abolition Day Project allow-ing students to bring awareness of human trafficking to millions of people all over the

United States; and initiating H.R. 929, the House resolution to recognize Abolition Day internationally as well as the work of Frederick Douglass and FDFI toward ending slavery.

In addition, Morris has given lec-tures about his family history at uni-versities all over the country, includ-

ing Columbia University, Morehouse College, Kennesaw State, University of Nevada-Las Vegas, Tuskegee University, Virginia Tech and Yale, the coalition reported.

For Morris, the location of his talk makes it extra special.

“It is a humbling experience to walk in a place named for my great ances-tor,” he said. “I am looking forward to this visit to Key West.”

the officers at the beach the day police tried to handcuff Eimers, but he was the detec-tive assigned to oversee the case after the incident, said spokes-woman Alyson Crean.

Lee and other supervisors didn’t know that Eimers had died until Dec. 10 — six days after his death — due to Stevens’ failure to keep in contact with hospital staff, according to the reprimand.

That lack of knowledge caused Lee and Crean to erroneously report to the public that Eimers was still alive the day after he died, the reprimand states.

Smith wrote in the letter that Stevens was “completely detached from this important case and had no empathy for either Eimers or his family. This type of laissez-faire police work is an embarrassment to the Key West Police Department and will not be tolerated.”

Smith wrote that he instruct-ed Stevens to stay in contact with the hospital and “take the lead” as the case could likely become an in-custody death, as the department would have to contact the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to inves-tigate the matter immediately upon Eimers’ death.

Family not contacted Smith said Stevens failed to

stay in contact with Eimers’ family, namely his son, and that Stevens wasn’t forthcom-ing with Smith’s inquiries about the case.

“You could give us no rea-sonable reason as to why you continued to mislead me about talking to the son,” Smith wrote. “You only said that you were ‘confused about the days.’ You then admitted that you had not made any inquiries as to Eimers’ condition and had not spoken to the son since Dec. 4. You could only offer that you relied on the hospital to call you when Eimers passed.”

Smith outlines in the repri-mand the dates of all the con-versations he had with Stevens in the days following the chase because Stevens “was advised that Eimers would expire in the near future and that he would not ever leave the hospital.”

Smith also wrote, “Four days after the incident, I contacted you directly to make sure you made next-of-kin notifications. You advised me you had not attempted yet. When I asked you why, you said because he had not expired yet. I told you this was unacceptable because we knew he was going to pass and we needed to give the fam-ily a chance to come and see him. I immediately told you to

make notifications. I explained to you that I was very disap-pointed in you as this is a very basic detective task on a case like this.”

Stevens couldn’t be reached for comment Friday.

Stevens, 42, was hired by Key West police in August 2002. His salary is $69,412, according to police records.

He went to detectives in April 2012 before Smith transferred him back to patrol following his reprimand last month.

The move from patrol to detectives is a lateral move at Key West police as there is no pay increase when going from patrol to detectives, Crean said.

Stevens has one previous dis-cipline issue — a written rep-rimand and three-day suspen-sion for failure to secure a duty weapon, according to records. He also has seven commenda-tions.

The Citizen Review Board, the independent, volunteer board that investigates resi-dent complaints against Key West police officers, had one compliant against Stevens from 2004. In that compliant Stevens, and three other officers, were accused of untruthfulness, but the board and the police depart-ment found the complaint to be unfounded, according to CRB records.

There have been no other

personnel changes at the police department related to the Eimers’ case, Crean said Friday.

No autopsy results yetNo cause of death has

been released by County Medical Examiner Dr. E. Hunt Scheuerman and Eimers’ autopsy report was not avail-able as of Friday.

By Dec. 11, a doctor had signed Eimers’ death cer-tificate, putting down “natural causes” as the determination, Steven Reeves, funeral director at Dean-Lopez Funeral home, previously told The Citizen.

The FDLE is subsequently investigating the case as in-custody death, but it does not comment on pending cases. The investigation remained ongoing as of Friday, said Carol Frederick, FDLE resident agent in charge for the Florida Keys.

The investigation of Eimers’ death is an automatic review that does not indicate any wrongdoing on the part of arresting officers, Lee has said.

Also compounding the case is the initial transfer of Eimers’ body to the funeral home, 418 Simonton St., instead of the medical examiner’s office.

Scheuerman wasn’t notified of his death until Dec. 11 when FDLE agents contacted him.

Scheuerman told The Citizen that sometimes hospitals don’t

always know of police investi-gations, and that such errors can occur but don’t happen often.

Eimers, a Michigan native, died after having lost conscious-ness while being subdued by four officers, who all said he was resisting arrest after lead-ing police on a chase from New Town to South Beach.

Eimers was pulled over Thanksgiving morning on North Roosevelt Boulevard for changing lanes erratically. He then took off before the offi-cer had finished running his license, according to police inci-dent reports.

Eimers steered his silver P.T. Cruiser downtown while patrol

cars began tracking him, driving onto the sand at South Beach before stopping and getting out.

A smart phone video taken by a witness and put on the Internet shows Eimers putting his hands above his head as he drops to his knees. Then one-by-one, officers approach him, covering Eimers’ body from view.

While Eimers was being hand-cuffed by officers, he stopped breathing, Smith wrote.

“Officers immediately took the cuffs off and began CPR,” Smith said. “Rescue transported Eimers to the hospital, where he was put on life support.”

I f you just listened to Republican politicians, you’d have almost no

sense that conservative think-ing has changed much since Barack Obama beat Mitt Romney more than a year ago. But if you hang around the conservative policy wonks, and read certain conserva-tive magazines, the picture is quite dif-ferent.

I’d invite you, for example, to cast your eye over the new issue of National Affairs, the right-leaning policy journal edited by Yuval Levin. You’ll find nine articles that hang together coherently around what could well be the dominant style of conserva-tism of the coming years. This is the conservatism of skepti-cal reform.

This conservatism is ori-ented, first, around social problems, not government. For many years, conservatives spoke as if runaway govern-ment was the only major threat facing the country. Defining themselves against government, Republican politicians had no governing agenda for people facing con-crete needs.

But the emerging conserva-tives begin their analysis by

looking at concrete problems: how to help the unemployed move to where they can find jobs; how to help gifted students from poor fami-lies reach their potential. If you start by looking at these specific matters, then even conservatives conclude that,

in properly limited ways, government can be a useful tool. Government is not the only solution, but it is also not the only problem.

Second, this con-servatism is populist about ends but not

means. Over the past decade, many Republican politicians have spread the message that the country’s problems would be easily solved if only the nefarious elites would get out of the way and allow the common people to take over. Members of this conservatism are more likely to conclude that, in fact, problems are complex and there are no easy answers, but there is room for policy expertise, and perhaps philosophical rigor, even if it comes from Washington.

But these experts should focus on specific needs and desires of working-class Americans, not gripes and obsessions of the Republican donor community.

Third, this conservatism supports effective govern-ment, not technocratic

government. Like all proper conservatism, it begins with a sense of epistemological modesty, a sense that the world is too complicated to be centrally planned. Therefore, it opposes the style of government embodied in Obamacare, where officials in the center define insurance products and then compel people to buy them.

This conservatism knows that central decision-mak-ers, even conservative ones, are no match for complex reality. Therefore, they favor market mechanisms, which take advantage of dispersed knowledge. They prefer simple programs to complex ones. In National Affairs, Eli Lehrer and Lori Sanders argue that a carefully structured income support grant could replace the morass of existing welfare programs for the poor.

Fourth, this conservatism is skeptical in temper, especially about itself. Recently, conser-vatives have been filled with fervor and conviction, and regarded compromise as sell-ing out. Some recent conser-vatives have ideologized the Constitution, turning it into a rigid system that answers every political question for us. But the founders constructed a constitutional order that left room for different policy approaches; that was humble before the evolving needs of the future; and that required

compromise and coalition building. The founders did not believe in concentrating power in the hands of any group of highly fallible indi-viduals.

Today’s emerging con-servatives embrace that constitutional mindset, embodied both by Madison and Hamilton. Moreover, the National Affairs authors understand that most policy programs, like most business-es, fail. Conservative programs like urban enterprise zones failed to produce measur-able results. Liberal programs like Head Start scarcely pro-duce identifiable long-term gains. Therefore, it is best to approach government in a mood of skeptical reformism: Engage in a constant process of gradual concrete reform even as you are aware that most of your efforts will not pan out.

The Republican style of recent years has produced a vacuum where concrete pro-posals should be. The emerg-ing conservatives won’t have to argue with or defeat the more populist factions on the right; they can just fill the vac-uum. Republican politicians, when they are asked to come up with specific programs, will find there is no other game in town.

In politics, it’s all in how you say things.

George Orwell knew what he was talking about when he described political language as “designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.”

Today, we’ve become so accustomed to the distor-tions of political speak that we hardly notice. But as the mid-term elections near, we might benefit from a booster shot of skepticism.

Both parties are guilty of verbal distortion and manipu-lation, but I dare say the left is more clever. Republicans tend to rely on dog whistles, loaded terms that prompt negative messages in the col-lective subconscious mind, while Democrats paste smiley faces on unpleasant messages,

cloaking meaning in Orwellian frocks of emotional distrac-tion.

A dog whistle might be the mention of, say, the “food stamp president,” as Newt Gingrich called President Obama during the last presidential elec-tion. Protests that this is not racist are noted and dismissed. The term calls up a certain image and everyone gets it.

Sometimes those on both sides of an issue select language that essentially cancels out one another. This is because both are equally attractive to the ear, even if their meanings are quite different. Exhibit A: pro-life and pro-choice. Who is against life? Why, no one! But, who is against choice? Again, no one. Of course, one chooses to protect unborn life and the other selects termina-tion. Enough said.

Moving along to today’s headlines and “income inequality.”

This may be one of the most brilliant turns of phrase yet. Not one single American, gun to head (figuratively speak-

ing), would say, “I’m for inequality” or “inequality is good.” But is inequality what we’re really talking about?

When you step back and examine the concept closely, what becomes clear is that roughly 99.9 percent

of Americans — perhaps even North Korea’s favorite son Dennis Rodman — actually like income inequality. This is because we value merit, talent and hard work, and all people aspire to be commensurately rewarded. What, after all, is the opposite of income inequality? Income equality.

That said, let us stipulate that we do have a growing

poverty problem in this coun-try, the contributing factors of which are many and complex. But the poor are not poor because Warren Buffett and Bill Gates are rich. No one thinks that Oprah has caused people in Appalachia to be destitute.

Solving our problems is far more difficult than raising public consensus (aka rabble-rousing) that the rich should be less rich so that the poor can be less poor, a feat that can only be accomplished through redistribution of wealth.

Some of the factors contrib-uting to the income gap are, indeed, tough to tackle, and Obama is not, in fact, a god, as he now seems comfort-able conceding. These fac-tors include the loss of jobs for low-skilled workers and the apparent inability of this population, for whatever rea-sons, to become more skilled. (Perhaps legalizing marijuana

will help. If it doesn’t provide enough jobs, at least more people will care less.)

Other factors include: a growing retired population, both in absolute numbers and as a percentage of the popula-tion; a dearth of entry-level jobs for college grads saddled with $1 trillion in loan debt (which the government guar-antees); the appalling rate of children born out of wedlock, a now-systemic condition that condemns a new generation to another cycle of poverty, as Democratic Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan pointed out five decades ago and Obama has reiterated.

Add to these the grinding down of low-skill wages thanks to a global economy that rewards the professional class — lawyers, doctors, engineers and, yes, television talk-show hosts. And, voilà, a growing income gap.

But is it inequality?What is missing from the

trumpeting of income inequal-ity is the hundreds of bil-lions in annual government redistribution that already takes place. How much will be enough to satisfy the inequal-ity camp? When incomes are equal?

In the end, fairness isn’t the issue. The issue is justifying policies — government inter-vention, higher taxes, spend-ing and redistribution — that can’t otherwise be easily sold. How about this for a midterm catchphrase, reflective of true circumstances — the need for a higher-skilled labor force that pits no American against another and qualifies people for jobs that are actually avail-able: “Learning for earning.”

It’s not as emotionally evoc-ative as inequality, but it just might do some good. Other suggestions welcome.

Inequality of language, distortions muddy political debates

Surprise, surprise. Florida’s Republican-led Legislature has cracked

the door on the issue of medical marijuana. Allowing a hearing on any cannabis legislation is a major policy shift — even if the measure only allows marijuana pre-scribed for sharply focused medical use.

The rare genetic disorder called Dravet syndrome causes frequent seizures, hearing loss and visual dam-age — and one of the many daily epileptic attacks can be suddenly fatal. This frighten-ing prospect for parents has prodded lawmakers to hold a workshop on the bill in the House Criminal Justice Subcommittee, under the chairmanship of Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fort Walton Beach.

We hope compassion is the primary motivation here, but the current political situation must have played a key role, too.

Proponents of medical marijuana have collected more than a million signa-tures on petitions to place a constitutional amendment on the November ballot. Now, supervisors of elections state-wide must verify each one by Feb. 1, with 683,149 certified signatures required to make the ballot.

The proposal’s fate also sits in the hands of Florida’s Supreme Court, which must rule on whether the amend-ment’s language is mislead-ing or adequate. Attorney General Pam Bondi’s office filed the challenge in October, justice heard argu-ments in December and the court has until April to rule.

A far more forceful politi-cal statement came with a voter survey that found a whopping 82 percent of the electorate supports this

medical cannabis initia-tive. Republican voter sup-port stood at 70 percent, and GOP legislative leaders cannot deny that loud mes-sage. Amendment proposals require 60 percent of the vote for passage, a figure the elec-torate would easily surpass.

After three years of refusing to hear medical marijuana bills or place an amendment on the ballot, the Legislature is at least taking one small step in the right direction.

The new measure legalizes a certain strain of marijuana known as Charlotte’s Web that has proven to control seizures in children. One politically palatable aspect to this is the strain contains little tetrahydrocannabinal, known as THC. The com-pound induces a high.

The speciality strain holds an elevated amount of can-nabidiol, which controls sei-zures. CBD can be ingested as an oil or vaporized and administered via feeding tubes.

Current treatments with powerful medications pro-vide slight improvements while weakening organs with toxins. Florida parents and suffering children deserve a better outcome, and the bill should be placed on the fast track.

But this leaves countless other suffering Floridians without the relief that canna-bis has been found to provide for cancer, multiple sclerosis, Lou Gehrig’s disease and a host of other debilitating conditions.

The Legislature would be wise to listen to the people and take control of the issue by crafting its own legislation.

One small step for medical marijuana

Editorial

BY KATHLEEN PARKERThe Washington Post

BY DAVID BROOKSThe New York Times

Conservatism of skeptical reform is new norm

I got the call late on a Saturday night. A friend of mine had fallen going into his house and

he wasn’t sure he would be mak-ing his workout on Monday.

He wasn’t hurt bad, just a few scrapes and a bruised

hip, but it kept him off his feet for a couple days.

It could have been much worse. My friend is in his 80s,

and for older adults falls are the leading cause of both fatal and

nonfatal injuries. In 2010, adults age 65 and up experienced 2.3 million

nonfatal injuries from falling. More than 662,000 were hospital-ized and 21,700 older

adults died from unin-tentional fall injuries.

Often it’s not the fall that does the damage, but the fear of falling.

As people age, they start to limit their physical activities. That leads to weaker muscles, reduced mobility and over time an even greater risk of falling.

It doesn’t have to happen. To prevent and prepare for future falls, clean up the external and work on the internal.

Here’s how to start:

External

Give your home a safety check. Inside the house you should pin down loose rugs, clear pathways from room to room and get cords off the floor. Put down nonskid mats in places that get wet like the bathroom or the kitchen sink.

Install grab bars around the tub, shower and toilet. If you have a stair-case, make sure there’s a railing on both sides and not just one.

Clear debris from pathways outside. Put away your garden hoses, yard tools and anything else that may be a trip-ping hazard. In the autumn, keep your walkway clear of leaves and dead plants.

In the winter, make sure snow and ice doesn’t build up.

Choose shoes with lower heels and ones with treaded rubber soles or nonskid bottoms. If you use a cane or walker, make sure the rub-ber padding on the bottom hasn’t worn out.

Replace dim bulbs with lights bright enough for you to clearly see everything. It’s especially important around your bed at night. Get a night light that turns on with movement, or put a lamp within reach of your bed for when you need to visit the bathroom.

InternalWork on improving your balance through

exercises. A great time to start is when you’re brushing your teeth. Set a timer and stand on one leg for a minute, then the opposite leg for another minute. When the two minutes are up, you’ve finished brushing your teeth and

gotten a little steadier. You can do the same thing when you’re waiting in line at the grocery store, the post office, the bank or while wash-ing dishes.

When you sit down to eat, pull the chair up as close to the table as you can. That forces you to sit up straight and use your core to keep you in position.

Walk in a straight line, putting one foot directly in front of the other, heel to toe. Walk at least 10 feet in one direction, turn around and walk back. Do that once in the morning and once at night. Challenge yourself to see how far you can go without falling off the line. If you’re feeling unsteady, have a friend stand beside you to help out.

The next time you drop something, bend over to pick it up while lifting one leg behind you. As you get steadier on your feet, lift the leg up higher and then switch sides.

For the truly dedicated, get a Swiss ball and sit on it while watching the television. Start by seeing if you can balance on it for five minutes at a time, and slowly build up until you can make it through an hour-long show. You’ll help stabilize your core, improve your balance and avoid unhealthy snacks because there’s no place to put them down.

Don’t fear falling. Follow these simple steps to achieve better balance.

TO YOUR HEALTH

Dear Mr. Fitness:Would you

be able to provide me with a list of arm exer-cises that can firm them up quickly? Currently, I’m doing three or four exercises for my tri-ceps muscles and three to four exercises for my biceps muscles — standard curls and pushdown kind of exercises — but these exercises don’t seem to be working. I’m doing 10 repetitions and three sets for each exercise. I’m a 49-year-old woman who only recently began a weightlifting program. My son thought it would be great if I wrote to you and see if my letter gets in the paper. I weigh 161 pounds and stand 5-foot, 6-inches tall. Thank you in advance.

— DisenchantedDear Disenchanted:Don’t worry, I have the

answer you need. The first item you should address is the amount of sets and repeti-tions you are currently using. I believe you should up the reps to about 20 or 25 per set. I would also increase the sets to five. You don’t state how much time you rest between sets. You may want to rest only 30 seconds between your sets. It may be quick, but if you are in reasonable shape condition-wise, you should try to speed things up.

By adding more repetitions and speeding up, you will condition these muscles to recruit more fibers to assist in these higher intensity work-outs. More muscle fibers being summoned to work means many more calories expend-ed. This is good. Means you will lose weight! Fat weight!

This increase of fat being burned will happen whether you are active or inactive. How cool is that.

You may want to drop one of the exercises you are cur-rently doing and keep it at three different movements. Always rotate these three exer-cises so you are doing them in a varied fashion. This will keep the exercises fresh.

So, on one of your exercise days, begin with triceps push-downs, then do reverse triceps dips, and finish with one-arm triceps kickbacks. Next arm day, reverse this order. Next time, start with your biceps exercises and then finish with your triceps. This will add variety and keep your arm muscles responding.

As for a list of arm exercis-es, you can choose from the following list: triceps push-downs with a rope, reverse-grip triceps pushdowns with a bar, close-grip bench presses, and any type of machine tri-ceps movement you wish.

For your biceps may I sug-gest standing barbell curls, seated alternate dumbbell curls, cable curls, preacher curls, and finally the ubiquitous reverse-grip pressdown. Now, get after it and let me know what happens to those arms!

PEOPLE IN THE NEWSMUNHALL, Pa. — Police

have identified the suspect who has surrendered in the shooting death of rapper Wiz Khalifa’s uncle in the parking lot of a Pittsburgh-area fast food restaurant.

Police say 17-year-old Jaron Young, of Penn Hills, is charged as an adult with criminal homicide in the Wednesday night shooting of 20-year-old Imani Porter.

Porter, of Pittsburgh, was parked in a Steak ‘n Shake parking lot in suburban Munhall when he was shot. He died at a hospital Thursday.

Allegheny County homi-cide detectives believe Porter planned to sell heroin to Young and another still-unidentified

suspect when he was, instead, shot in the head.

Khalifa has tweeted that his “uncle was younger and more level-headed than all of us.”

Young denied involvement to reporters as he was taken into custody.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Miss America is staying in Atlantic City.

Miss America 2014 Nina Davuluri announced Friday that the next pageant will take place in the New Jersey shore resort on Sept. 14.

Preliminary competitions are scheduled over three nights at Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall from Sept. 9 to 11.

Davuluri, a Syracuse, N.Y., native, was crowned Miss America in September. The pageant originated in Atlantic City in 1921 and spent six

years in Las Vegas before returning to New Jersey last year.

Davuluri plans to use her Miss America scholarship to attend medical school.

The program will be tele-vised by ABC.

NEW YORK — Maya Angelou is mourning her friend Amiri Baraka, remem-bering him as a vital poet whose private persona differed greatly from his fiery public image.

“He was very kind. He was very intelligent and very funny,” Angelou said Friday during a telephone interview.

Baraka, whom Angelou had known for more than 40 years, died Thursday in Newark, N.J., at age 79. Angelou said she was still “reeling” from his death.

“How do we go on when the

poets die?” she said.Angelou was one of many

artists influenced by the work and the political and cultural activism of Baraka, whose legacy ranged from poetry and drama to his leadership in the 1960s and ‘70s of the Black Arts Movement. They followed dif-ferent paths — Angelou read at the first inaugural of President Bill Clinton, an invitation no White House executive would have presented to Baraka.

And Angelou said that she didn’t always agree with Baraka, criti-cized at times for his writings about Jews, gays and whites.

But she admired him — not only for speaking his mind but also for admitting mistakes and changing. She called it

a quality that Baraka, who evolved from bohemianism to black nationalism to Marxism, shared with one of his heroes, Malcolm X.

“He had enough courage to say, ‘You remember what I said before? Well, I thought it was true at the time, but I don’t believe that anymore,’” Angelou said.

One of her favorite memo-ries of Baraka was from a trib-ute to the late poet Langston Hughes. She and Baraka were photographed clasp-ing hands and dancing in Harlem’s Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, in an atrium above where Hughes’ ashes were buried. A caption read that she and Baraka were “highlighting the ancient African rite of ances-tral return.”

“I called Amiri Baraka and asked him if he was perform-

ing an African rite,” Angelou recalled. “He said, ‘No, I was doing the jitterbug.’ And I said that I was doing the Texas hop.’”

PASADENA, Calif. — “The Voice” is a ratings success for NBC, but judge Cee Lo Green says it has one more mountain to climb.

Green said Friday that “The Voice” has yet to mint a new music star from its contes-tants, and he’d like to be a part of changing that.

As a contrast, Fox’s “American Idol” has developed stars like Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood.

Green has alternated with Usher as a judge on “The Voice.” He says he’d like to continue but he has other ambitions that might someday pull him away.

Mile marker 420 is now 419.99 Colorado officials think a difference of

one-hundredth of a mile will be enough to stop thieves from stealing the mile marker 420 sign along Interstate 70.

Amy Ford of the Colorado Department of Transportation says the “MILE 420” sign near Stratton was stolen for the last time some-time in the last year, and officials replaced it with a sign that says “MILE 419.99.”

Ford says it’s the only “420” sign to be replaced in the state that recently legal-ized recreational marijuana. Most highways aren’t long enough to need one.

The number “420” has long been associ-ated with marijuana, though its origins as a shorthand for pot are murky.

Mile 419.99, about 25 miles from the Kansas border, isn’t the only place in Colorado with a fractional mile marker. Cameron Pass in Larimer County has a “MILE 68.5” sign after frequent thefts of the “MILE 69” sign.

RICHMOND, VA.

Deal reached by tobacco firmThe nation’s tobacco companies and

the Justice Department have reached an agreement on publishing corrective state-ments that say the companies lied about the dangers of smoking and requires them to disclose smoking’s health effects.

A federal judge in 2012 ordered the industry to pay for corrective statements in various advertisements.

But the parties were to meet to dis-cuss how to implement the statements, including whether they would be put in inserts with cigarette packs and on web-sites, TV and newspaper ads.

The agreement announced Friday out-lines those details, including full-page ads in the Sunday editions of 35 newspapers plus prime-time TV spots on CBS, ABC and NBC for a year.

It also details what statements will be published on tobacco company websites and affixed to cigarette packs.

US flu season hasn’t peakedFlu season is ramping up, with ill-

ness widespread in at least 35 states. That’s up from 25 in the previous week.

A flu expert with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the agency’s weekly report released Friday shows “We’re in the thick of flu season.”

The CDC’s Lyn Finelli says the sea-son likely hasn’t peaked, but that it’s too soon to know if it will be worse than normal.

The numbers aren’t as high so far as last year, when flu season started early. Flu usually peaks in January or February.

The number of people seeking medical care for the flu climbed to more than 4 percent of all doctor vis-its last week, a near doubling from two weeks earlier.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The grim possibility that a missing 7-week-old girl is seriously hurt or dead hung over police Friday as they searched for the baby in northeast Memphis.

For a second day, police used cadaver dogs as they scoured homes, backyards and a pond for missing Aniston Walker, whose mother was charged Friday with abuse and neglect in the baby’s disappearance.

Aniston was wearing a one-sie with football emblems on it when she was last seen by her mother, 33-year-old Andrea Walker, on Thursday morning, police said.

Andrea Walker said she told police that she left her daughter with her 3-year-old son while she took her 5-year-old son to school. When she returned, the baby was gone, but the 3-year-old was still in the house.

Walker said the doors were locked when she arrived at home and there was no sign of a break in, according to a police affidavit. She told police only two other people had the key, the affidavit said.

Police said she called the child’s father, who does not live at the same address, and he reported the baby missing. Walker then left the house again — leaving the 3-year-old alone in the house for an hour— as she traveled to several loca-tions throughout the city, the affidavit said.

Police said they interviewed Walker, then charged her with child abuse and child neglect. Memphis Police Director Toney Armstrong said she is a suspect in the disappearance.

“Realistically, 7-week-old kids don’t mysteriously disappear without some circumstances behind it,” Armstrong said. “If

this was a teenage kid, if this was even a small child of school age, obviously our hopes would be high. But again, 7-week-old children to not have the means to just disappear.”

Police spokeswoman Karen Rudolph said the two young sons were with relatives.

Police Sgt. J.K. Smith wrote in the affidavit that he observed Walker during several hours of questioning.

“Based on his experience and the age of the child that is miss-ing, affiant has probable cause to believe the child has sus-tained seriously bodily injury,” Smith wrote.

Walker is being held on $500,000 bond. Court records do not show whether she has a lawyer.

The search on Friday con-centrated in the neighborhood of single family homes with brick facades and triangle roofs. One area of focus was a small pond behind the Walker home,

where a power excavator was used to dig for evidence.

Officers wearing protective vests and using K-9 units went home to home, searching yards, trash bins and clusters of tall trees. Neighbors watched the search from their front doors and front yards.

Rain that fell Thursday could

have hampered the dogs’ ability to pick up a scent, Armstrong said.

Police also attempted to search a landfill where trash from the neighborhood’s homes is dumped, but there were too many scents for the dogs to get a positive hit, Rudolph said.

Rudolph said investigators plan to suspend the search later Friday evening and resume it the next morning.

Walker was believed to live alone with her three children. It was not immediately known when someone other than Wal-ker last saw the missing child.

Walker “has not been as forthcoming as we wish that she would,” Armstrong said.

County,” said Gonzalez attor-ney Joseph Downs of Miami. “It’s always better result when a case gets settled.”

The firm did not make any admission of any liability or legal responsibility as part of the settlement, which is typi-cal in such agreements, Cassel said.

The county’s relationship with Gonzalez actually dates to 1993 when it inked its contract with the firm, Cassel said.

The revamped Key West state courthouse originally was to cost $13.8 million, but overruns and security issues spiked the final cost to $18.1 million.

Meanwhile, another legal row over a final $380,000

payment to two companies involved in the construction — Tower Group Inc. or Baron Manufacturing, a subcontrac-tor the company hired to store some wooden trim used in the new courthouse — was also settled out of court in 2012.

The county never disputed the amount owed, just which company it should pay. It was agreed that the county would pay Tower Group Inc., which in turn paid Baron Manufacturing.

Beyond legal woes, the coun-ty just completed this week about $900,000 in renovations to the 5-year-old Freeman Justice Center that included the final touches on the newly redesigned and enlarged lobby.

The lobby issue was not part of the county’s suit with Gonzalez, but illustrates the

headaches the county has had getting the new courthouse in working order.

The new lobby is about three times its old size with addition-al metal detectors. Because of the size of the old lobby, lines of customers often extended into the parking lot, an uncomfort-able wait for workers and jurors in hot or rainy weather.

Originally, the lobby was to be on the second floor of the courthouse, but the 9/11 attacks changed security requirements, which illustrates how long the county has been planning the new building, Cassel said.

The county also complet-ed last year the new Monroe County Drug Court headquar-

ters in the recently remodeled parking lot in the rear of the courthouse. It features state-of-the-art drug testing and uri-nalysis machines.

Trial Court Administrator Holly Elomina was all smiles Friday as workers were putting the finishing touches on the new lobby.

“We have a few more things as

far as paint here and there, but it’s pretty much wrapped as of yesterday (Thursday),” Elomina said. “This new construction showed us that we needed a lobby this size from the begin-ning, and the court security offi-cers are beyond thrilled. Now they have a functional work space to secure our building.”

Asked if the threat of lawsuits worried him, Cates said no.

“You know how many times the city gets threatened with lawsuits?” Cates asked rhetori-cally. “That’s just the way it is.”

For years, the police depart-ment has kept a rotation system in place for selecting which tow company to call on which day. Currently, the rotation lists four companies — Arnolds Towing, Alex’s Towing, Arnolds T&R and Key West Towing.

Citing the frequent “petty squabbles” city staff has to deal with, City Attorney Shawn Smith asked the commission to put the contract out to bid, signaling the near end of an era in Key West when it comes to towing cars from crash sites or illegal parking spots.

The 53-page solicitation was released Dec. 16, Companies wanting to bid on the contract must submit their proposals to the city clerk’s office by 3:30 p.m. Jan. 22.

The city commission plans to award the contract Feb. 4.

“Four separate attorneys have contacted all of us,” said one towing company owner, speaking on the condition of anonymity. “I’ll see what hap-pens. Suing the city is a major no-no, especially when you depend on the city for reve-nue.”

The same towing industry veteran wants the city to stop the bidding process and hold a sit-down where the various company owners can work out a solution that doesn’t involve ending the rotation system.

“I don’t care what anybody says,” the woman said. “The one person that wins will be the only towing company left here after so many years, with-out a doubt.”

No new lawsuits from any towing company have been brought against the city since the bidding process began, Smith confirmed Friday.

A lawsuit brought by Anchor Towing last July, though, is pending at the 16th Judicial Circuit Court. The suit was filed after the city’s decision to yank the company from the tow rota-tion list in June. Anchor officials claim the city erred, while Smith has said the company violated the ordinance by not having an office in the same place as its vehicle inside storage.

City ordinance allows com-panies to charge vehicle own-ers $135 a tow for wrecked or abandoned vehicles that weigh less than 5 tons, which includes most cars and trucks.

wrong tax codes into the com-puter payroll system, which resulted in excessive amounts of federal withholding taxes being taken out of the payroll checks, Clerk of Court Amy Heavilin said.

The employees were issued new checks on Friday that fixed the shortfall, Heavilin said.

The mistake came a day after a meeting between Heavilin and her key staff members and County Administrator Roman Gastesi and other county lead-ers about the clerk’s office fail-ure to pay bills on time.

Gastesi’s company credit card was denied roughly six months ago after the clerk’s office failed to pay the bill, he said. Also, the clerk’s office failed to pay the bill for the county’s account at Publix grocery store, which resulted in county employees not being able to buy goods for Bayshore Manor, an assisted living facil-ity for seniors on Stock Island, Gastesi said.

Heavilin did admit that turn-over could have played a role in some of the billing issues. Her office has been plagued with turnover since she was elected in 2012. The finance director, assistant finance director, pay-roll supervisor, grants writer and other top-tier employees have left.

The office only recently be -came fully staffed, Heavilin said.

Also, Heavilin brought in former Keys State House Rep.

Ron Saunders roughly six months ago to help run the office. Saunders is serving in an upper management/office manager type position.

Heavilin did argue that her office needs certain receipts and other documentation from county employees before it can pay credit card and other expenses.

“We need supporting docu-mentation,” she said.

Heavilin and Gastesi both called Wednesday’s meeting pro ductive. Gastesi was sup-portive of Heavilin, saying that “she swiftly resolved” the payroll issue.

Gastesi vowed to work more closely with the clerk’s office and to share employees when needed, he said.

“We are partners,” Gastesi said. “It is in the public’s best interest that we all do well.”

KEY WEST — With a week remaining in the regular season, the Key West boys soccer team took a positive step towards the postseason Friday night with a 5-1

win over Chaminade Madonna College Preparatory on the pitch of Tommy Roberts Memorial Stadium.

Freshman striker Adam Swiecicki boosted the Conchs offense with a pair of goals and an assist while the defense was close to shutting out the Lions.

Conchs Coach Marc Pierre was con-tent with his team’s play but knows this was just a small step in preparation for the District 16-3A tourney which begins on Jan. 21.

“They played pretty well today, I’m really proud of them,” said Pierre. “Chaminade is a very good team. They pass the ball around well, but the thing is they were not as fast as we expected. Plus, they were not very strong in the air. They did beat one of our players and got a goal. They have a lot of talent; it seems like they are young. In a couple of years, they might be a force to be reckoned with.”

In 2013, Key West lost to Chaminade and their opponent today, Palmer Trinity. Pierre said it would be sweet to avenge both losses, especially this time of the year.

KEY WEST — It was an emotional game for both the Key West High and Coral Shore High basketball teams as not only were both teams searching for a first victo-ry of the season, but the matchup on Bill Butler Court marked the return of Anthony Rice to his hometown.

In the end, it would be a career high 39 points from Chase Renner — 16 coming in the fourth quarter — that would lead the Conchs (1-8 overall)

to the 75-60 triumph on their home court at Bobby Menendez Gymnasium, but not without a fight from the visiting ’Canes (0-11).

“All you can do is keep fighting,” said Coral Shores coach Bruce Teachey. “We’ve been in a few games but things did not go our way. With Anthony being back was one thing, but it’s also Key West. We’re from Coral Shores, so that’s Monroe County, and we wanted to get our first win, too, so I think we were as moti-

Ogwumike leads No. 4 Stanford women past Utah

SALT LAKE CITY: Chiney Ogwumike and the Stanford Cardinal overpowered the Utah Utes — again.

Ogwumike had 30 points on 13-of-17 shooting and added nine rebounds and No. 4 Stanford routed Utah 87-61 on Friday night to improve to 17-0 against the Utes.

“Honestly, I’ve come to the point where my coaches say, ‘If I’m open, I have to shoot the ball with confidence,’” Ogwumike said. “I love things on the block, but people are going to double and triple team me. So I’ve really had to elevate my game.”

Amber Orrange had 14 points for the Cardinal (14-1, 3-0 Pac-12). Stanford shot 57.4 percent (35 of 61) from the field and 57.1 percent (8 of 14) from 3-point range.

“We came out and shot the ball well,” Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer said. “I thought we were moving the ball and shooting the ball. I thought we had good balance in scoring. Chiney again had 30, but different people were contributing.”

Emily Potter had 16 points and eight rebounds for the Utes (7-7, 0-3). Michelle Plouffe added 14 points, eight rebounds and five assists. Utah shot 38.6 percent (22 of 57) from the field.

Center cleared after concussionSAN DIEGO — Center Nick Hardwick

has been cleared from his concussion and was a limited participant as the San Diego Chargers practiced for the final time for their divisional-round playoff game at Denver. Hardwick says he’s “moving in the right direction” but there are no guaran-tees he’ll be able to play. He was hurt in Sunday’s wild-card win at Cincinnati and replaced by Rich Ohrnberger.

Running back Ryan Mathews didn’t prac-tice again Friday due to an injured left ankle. He says his mindset is the same as earlier in the week, that he wants to play. He came out of the Bengals game in the third quarter. Hardwick and Mathews are listed as questionable, as are right guard Jeromey Clary (shoulder), right tackle D.J. Fluker (ankle) and wide receiver Eddie Royal (toe).

CANADIAN FIGURE SKATING

Osmond wins short programOTTAWA, Ontario — Kaetlyn

Osmond won the women’s singles short program Friday in the Canadian figure skating championships.

Coming off an ankle injury and a torn hamstring, the 18-year-old Osmond landed a triple flip-triple toe loop combination, then a triple Lutz to score 70.3 points for her ‘60s-inspired performance to “Big Spender” and “Rich Man’s Frug.”

Amelie Lacoste was second at 61.27, followed by 15-year-old Gabrielle Daleman at 58.38.

Canada has two berths in women’s singles for the Sochi Olympics.

Olympic ice dance champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir won the short dance, scoring 76.16 points.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Kiffin to join Alabama as OCAlabama hired former Southern

California coach Lane Kiffin on Friday as its offensive coordinator and quar-terbacks coach.

Kiffin replaces Doug Nussmeier, who left Alabama for Michigan.

Kiffin spent a week in Tuscaloosa, Ala., last month exchanging ideas with coach Nick Saban and his staff and observing Alabama’s offense.

The 38-year-old Kiffin was 28-15 in three-plus seasons with USC. He was fired five games into last season. He also was head coach at Tennessee and for the Oakland Raiders.

Kiffin spent six seasons (2001-06) at USC under Pete Carroll as an assistant, including the final two as offensive coordinator.

“We’re looking to do the same thing tomorrow,” said Pierre about the Palmer match. “The game plan was to play very good defense and pass the ball around, move around, talk a lot and work on our finishing. Adam started it off with a bang.”

Swiecicki nailed hit his first goal in the fifth minute hitting his target from the edge of the box to lift the Conchs, 1-0.

Five minutes later, Key West made it 2-0. Swiecicki placed a corner kick to the middle of the net and senior sweeper Justin Mock headed it in for a goal.

Key West was awarded a penalty kick in the 36th min-ute, and Donte Thompson’s shot was touched by the Lions keeper but he could not hold on for a 3-0 advantage.

With seconds left before the half, Swiecicki nailed his sec-ond goal in a one-on-one for a 4-0 lead at the intermission.

The Conchs went up 5-0 at the 53:15 mark. Junior striker

Bobur Ilkhomov managed to sweep the ball into the net with his left foot to put the game out of reach.

But the Lions were not done. They made a few adjustments, and by the way they played in the second half, received a pep talk from their coach as was evidenced by their sense of urgency.

They played up to the Conchs and late in the match, sophomore Dimitri Lampru took a corner kick from team-mate Sergio Escalante and dusted the back of the net to prevent the shutout.

Nonetheless, Coach Pierre got his wish with the Conchs defense was on task.

“Justin was solid in the back, Simon Dayer and Brian Coward did really well for us tonight, as did Roberto Remercy, Alex (Cabrera), Donte (Thompson) and Gavin (Mock) who stepped it up at stopper,” said the coach.

The Conchs, now 9-3-2, take the pitch at 1:30 p.m. today against Palmer Trinity. The Lady Conchs host Chaminade at noon. Both games are at TRMS.

standings,” explained Coach Jim Murphy from his phone. “But we held our own for the first 20 minutes. Sal (Barrios) kept us in the game in the net, but they were able to finally get one through. I think they hit the posts about four times. They definitely had their opportunities.”

Palmer second again five minutes later for a 2-0 advan-tage at the half.

Marathon finally got on the scoreboard about 10 minutes into the second half. Gabby Gonzalez scored on what was Marathon’s first shot of the game for a 2-1 match.

Just before the water break, Palmer made it 3-1. Their final goal came in the final 20 min-utes of the half.

“We couldn’t keep up with their force. They have a team

somewhere around 25 play-ers. They definitely played their bench the second half,” Murphy said. “They play Key West tomorrow so they pretty much rested their starters.”

Murphy said Palmer is one of the top teams they play all season.

“I was pretty satisfied with how we played. They probably move the ball around better than any team we’ve played all year both times we’ve played them,” said Murphy. “We are playing physical. We know what we have to work on going into districts, but it’s going to be a tough goal to advance to regionals.”

The Dolphins have one more home game Friday against former district oppo-nent Westminster Christian in Miami. Westminster moved from Class 1A to 2A this sea-son and now play in the same district as Coral Shores.

vated as we could be. I believe everybody on our team believes we can take Key West when they get up there.”

Renner went eight-for-eight from the free throw line in the final five minutes of action to secure the victory, and finished off his career night scoring 23 points in the final half and picking up four rebounds, two blocks and a steal in the victory.

“I had gone to the line for three and I hit only one of the three free throws so I figured I had to get those points back somehow. So whatever it took for us to win, that’s what I had to so,” said Renner. “It feels so good, all the hard work we put in practice finally paid off. It probably won’t settle in for a while, because that was my goal to proceed what I had done in previous years and doing that this year on a consistent basis is great.”

Chipping in for the win were seniors Luis Acosta with six points, 13 rebounds, and a pair of assists along with Lanre Scott with 13 points, four rebounds, and a pair of steals and assists. AJ Cromwell anchored the Conchs in the low post with nine points and eight rebounds.

For the Hurricanes, it was Richard Jacobsen who scored a team high 19 points, while Rice contributed a double-double in a return to Key West, scoring 16 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. But both players fouled out with roughly three minutes to go in the game. Shaka Smith added nine points, four rebounds and two assists.

The Conchs opened the game on a 7-2 run, their first lead in four games, main-

tained control of the first closing out the quarter by doubling up the ’Canes for a 17-12 lead.

Midway through the second, the Conchs would open its biggest lead of the half on a pair of back-to-back 3-pointers by Renner and Alan Greager for a 12-point advan-tage, but the Hurricanes would battle back behind a 12-point first half from Rice and cut the lead to 35-28 at halftime.

The Conchs would come out on fire following the break, with Acosta knocking down the first four points of the quar-ter following a pair of big rebounds and Renner followed with five points, includ-ing a 3-pointer to retake the 12-point

advantage. But once again the Hurricanes chipped away at the lead and went on a 12-2 run to close out the quarter – capped off by a 3-pointers from Brain Cash, who scored six in the game. The Conchs clung to a 47-44 lead after three.

The fourth quarter, however, belong to Key West and Renner. The junior opened the quarter with a nice spin move past the Coral Shores’ defense and nailed a jumper from the elbow to excite the Key West fans. Scott added to the lead on the Conchs’ next time down the court, converting a 3-point play after a quick drive to the basket and a 54-47 lead.

Key West would go on a 12-4 run from there to break open the score and never looked back after Rice fouled out with 3:05 left to play, Jacobsen with 2:51 and Darren Govan with 2:20.

“I’m not going to take away from Key West, but when Anthony goes to the bench (fouled out) and my No. 2 scorer that’s a little tough to fight back from that,” said Teachey. “But it was a good game and we are just going to keep working and try to finish strong.”

Renner secured the first victory of the season and his career night from the free throw line, going 13-for-15 for the game. The win clinches the Conchs the No. 3 seed in the district standings.

“It was a big win and they played really good defense, especially Kevin (Smith),” said Key West coach Tony McDowell. “I’m really proud of the boys, I always am, but I really am tonight because they came up with the defense scheme to shadow Anthony and he fouled out, so only thing I can say is I;m really proud of them and we got our first win at home.”

HONOLULU — Brian Stuard had his fourth straight round of 65 at the Sony Open. Too bad it was only Friday.

Stuard completed his second round with a hybrid 3-iron into 2 feet for eagle on the par-5 ninth hole for a 5-under 65. That gave him a one-shot lead over Marc Leishman of Australia among those who played early on another gorgeous day off the shores of Oahu.

Stuard, a 31-year-old from Michigan who is in his third year on the PGA Tour, was at 10-under 130.

He had a 65-65 weekend at Waialae last year to tie for fifth, his best finish on tour besides the opposite-field events. This was his seventh straight round in the 60s at Waialae dating to his first trip in 2010.

“I think it’s something to do with the greens,” Stuard said. “I feel comfortable on the greens. I feel like I read them pretty well and I’m able to make putts.”

That usually works anywhere, and in this case, it has put Stuard on a good spot regard-less of how the other half of the field fared in the afternoon.

James Hahn already was off to a memorable start. He made an albatross 2 on the par-5 ninth hole, the first one at Waialae since Terry Mauney in 1978.

Masters champion Adam Scott and PGA champion Jason Dufner were among the late starters who faced breezy con-ditions on a course that was firm and fast after a full day of sunshine down from Waikiki.

Leishman also made an eagle on the ninth hole, but that was in the middle of his round. And it was part of a three-hole stretch he played in 4-under, and he made a 25-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole. It led to a 64 that put him in a good spot going into the weekend.

“They’re the sort of things that really turn an average round into a good one, or a good one into a great one,” Leishman said. “It was nice to shoot 6-under and get myself right in it.”

Jason Kokrak had a 67 and was at 7-under 133, while rook-ie Hudson Swafford played bogey-free for a 64 and was in the group at 134 that includ-ed past Sony Open champion Jerry Kelly and Boo Weekley.

Kapalua winner Zach Johnson had a 67 and was at

135, reasonable position as he tries to become the first player since Ernie Els in 2003 to win both Hawaii events in the same year. The runner-up last week, Jordan Spieth, wasn’t so fortu-nate.

Spieth was on the verge of getting to 2-under at the turn until missing a 4-foot birdie putt. On the next tee, he pulled it left and never found it along the out-of-bounds posts next to the driving range. That led to double bogey, and he never recovered. He shot 71, and the cut was likely to be at least 1-under.

“The funny thing is, I putt-ed better this week than last week,” Spieth said.

He also was amused — not at the time, but after his round — about the 18th. The three areas he wanted to improve this year

were his long irons, his chip-ping and short putts. His long iron into the 18th came up just short of the green. His chip left him farther away than he wanted (4 feet), and the putt was pulled.

The iron wasn’t all that bad. It took one hop into the edge of the rough by the green which killed the bounce toward the green.

No matter. He planned a day in the sun on Friday and Saturday, and then was headed home to get ready for Torrey Pines in two weeks. That will bring back some memories. A year ago, Spieth had to play a pre-qualifier in San Diego just to get into the Monday qualifier. He failed to get one of the spots, and then was given a sponsor’s exemption.

SEATTLE — After nearly two weeks of wait-ing, the Seattle Seahawks finally get a chance to prove they were worthy of the No. 1 seed they earned in the NFC.

After winning on the road in the postseason last week, the New Orleans Saints no longer have that stigma clouding their franchise his-tory.

Less than six weeks after Seattle made a resounding claim to NFC supremacy with a rout of New Orleans, the Seahawks and Saints collide again on Saturday in the NFC divisional playoff. Since that Dec. 2 matchup where the Seahawks all but wrapped up home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs with a 34-7 win, both teams have seen some of their definitions changed.

Seattle has lost some of its home invincibility after losing to Arizona in Week 16 to snap a 14-game home win streak. And the Saints are no longer seeking a validating victory away from New Orleans after knocking off Philadelphia 26-24 last Saturday in the NFC wild-card game, the first road playoff win in franchise history.

“They’re going to know what to expect from our crowd, they’re going to know what to expect from us, and we’re going to know what to expect from them,” Seattle cor-nerback Richard Sherman said.

FIVE THINGS TO WATCH FOR.

MORE THAN BREES: Drew Brees is not accus-tomed to being stifled, but that is what Seattle did in the first meeting. His 147 yards passing were a season-low by nearly 100 yards. His 3.87 yards per pass attempt was the third-lowest of his entire career. But New Orleans has evolved over the past month. They’re attempting to become more run dependent and less pass reliant.

REDISCOVER RUSSELL: Russell Wilson had argu-ably the best regular-season game of his career when New Orleans visited in December. He threw for 310 yards and three touchdowns, ran for anoth-er 47 yards and completed 73.3 percent of his pass attempts. For Wilson, it capped a four-week stretch where his name was thrown into the MVP conversation.

WHERE’S JIMMY?: Jimmy Graham has been such a vital part of the Saints offense that his disap-pearance in the first matchup against Seattle was stunning. Seattle used a combination of linebacker K.J. Wright and strong safety Kam Chancellor to shadow Graham. He finished with just three recep-tions for 42 yards on nine targets. The Saints should be better able to counter Seattle’s defense against Graham this time.

HELLO, HARVIN: Percy Harvin might own the award for player most written about with least number of snaps this season. He’s been a constant question from the start of training camp until now, first about his ailing hip, then about his recovery, his Seattle debut in Week 11 and then about the complica-tions that surfaced after.

INJURY WOES: The Saints were already without safety Kenny Vaccaro, cornerback Jabari Greer and

linebacker Jonathan Vilma to injuries in the second-half of the regular season. Then linebacker Parys Haralson went down with the torn pectoral against Philadelphia and cornerback Keenan Lewis suffered a con-cussion. Lewis was adamant this week he intends to play against Seattle.

Meanwhile, the Seahawks might get more than Harvin back. Tight end Luke Willson

could play two weeks after getting carted off the field with an ankle injury. And if the

Seahawks advance, Wright could be ready next week.

SAN FRANCISCO AT CAROLINA: TOMORROW, 1 P.M. (FOX) SAN DIEGO AT DENVER: TOMORROW, 4:40 P.M. (CBS)

BY JOSH DUBOWThe Associated Press

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Ever since Jim Harbaugh arrived in San Francisco three years ago to build the 49ers into a consistent winner, a bruising offensive line has been the back-bone of the team’s offensive success.

Whether it’s clearing holes for Frank Gore or giving Colin Kaepernick enough time to make big throws or scramble, the five block-ers up front have dictated how the offense has played.

That’s why it stood out so much when that unit was overmatched in November in a 10-9 loss to the Carolina Panthers that remains prominent in the memories of the 49ers players heading into the playoff rematch on Sunday.

“It’s one of those games where you wish you could have it back,” guard Alex Boone said. “They’re a great team. I feel we’re two of the same teams, just East Coast and West Coast separates us. There are things you always want to have back, and that game especially. If we go in and play our game and don’t get mentally hijacked and emotionally hijacked, it could be a good day for us.”

It sure wasn’t the first meeting when San Francisco was overpowered for a change after building a reputation for beating up on other teams. The Niners were held to 151 yards of offense for their lowest total in seven years as Kaepernick was sacked a career-high six times

and looked flustered at times.With athletic defensive ends Charles Johnson

and Greg Hardy keeping him hemmed into the pocket and linebackers Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis chasing after him if he tried to escape, Kaepernick had one of his worst days as a pro, completing 11 of 22 passes for 91 yards and one interception.

“They have a great front seven,” Kaepernick said. “They’re very athletic, very fast, very strong. It was something that the first game we didn’t play very well. We didn’t execute the way we should have.”

The Panthers were able to generate pressure without blitzing, with half of their sacks com-ing on four-man rushes, according to STATS LLC. San Francisco ran only nine plays against the blitz as Carolina was able to control the line of scrimmage with their front seven.

“I really believe that they are the most talent-ed front seven that we have played,” Harbaugh said. “That’s in large part a great share of what makes them so effective. Putting pressure on the quarterback, stopping the run. Again, you look across the categories that they measure defensive success, and they’re in the top, top five, top six, top.”

Kaepernick didn’t complete a single pass that game when he was pressured, going 0-for-4 with an interception and the six sacks as he played without star receiver Michael Crabtree all game and lost tight end Vernon Davis to a concussion in the first half.

BY BERNIE WILSONThe Associated Press

SAN DIEGO — The Chargers stunned the Denver Broncos five weeks ago, making Peyton Manning look average and claiming a road vic-tory that was part of a late-season surge that helped sweep San Diego into the playoffs.

They’ll have to do it again Sunday in a division-al-round game against the top-seeded Broncos in Denver to keep their January joyride going.

“We’re going to come in there with a ven-geance and see if we can shock the world again,” Pro Bowl safety Eric Weddle said Thursday.

As much as the Chargers’ offense contributed to the 27-20 victory at Denver on Dec. 12, defen-sive coordinator John Pagano came up with a game plan that helped frustrate Manning and the high-powered Broncos.

The Bolts held the Broncos to season lows in points and total offensive yards (295). The Broncos had only 18 yards rushing.

The Broncos were forced to punt on four straight possessions in the second and third quarters, a streak that started with three straight three-and-outs.

“It’s always a challenge for us as a staff for putting those things together when you see an opponent for the third time,” Pagano said. “There’s so many things that they know about us and we know about them. It really comes down to between the lines, players going out and

executing. Sometimes you can’t worry about, ‘Oh, they’ve seen this before, or done this before.’ You’ve just got to go out and execute. If players go at a high level no matter what the call is and we got execute, you’re always going to have that success.

“We know each other so well that you’ve got to disguise a little bit and change it up a little bit.” Pagano said the Chargers communicated well, didn’t give up big plays and tackled well.

“When you do those three things defensively, it always gives you an opportunity to win.”

While Manning is 3-1 against San Diego since coming to the Broncos, the Chargers eliminated the Manning-led Indianapolis Colts from the playoffs following the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

Pagano said every game is different and can change on one play.

He mentioned a big play in Sunday’s 27-10 wild-card victory at Cincinnati. With the Bengals driving for the go-ahead score in the second quarter, inside linebacker Donald Butler forced Giovani Bernard to fumble after a reception just

before halftime Sunday, with San Diego’s Richard Marshall recov-

ering in the end zone.

BY MICHAEL MAROTThe Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Adam Vinatieri has warmed up to those chilly New England receptions.

Sometimes, he hears cheers. Sometimes, he hears boos.

It’s all part of life as an ex-Pat in one of foot-ball’s fiercest rivalries — even for a kicker who signed with the Colts eight years ago.

“It’s the (Red) Sox-Yankees, if you will, that kind of thing where I think both teams respect each other and know what comes to the table,” Vinatieri said.

The story lines in this annual series have traditionally started and ended with the quar-terbacks — Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and now Andrew Luck.

But the ties run so much deeper, especially given Indianapolis’ ever-expanding list of for-mer Patriots.

In addition to Vinatieri, there’s cornerback Darius Butler, who may replace injured starter Greg Toler in Saturday night’s playoff game, with the winner advancing to the AFC cham-pionship game. Butler was New England’s sec-ond-round pick in 2009, and since joining the Colts in September 2012, he’s intercepted eight passes and returned three for scores.

“You’ve always got

something to prove,” said Butler, who was cut by the Patriots at the end of training camp in 2011. “And it’s always special when you’re fac-ing a former team.”

Safety Sergio Brown spent two seasons with New England (12-4) before landing with Indy last season, too. If LaRon Landry doesn’t clear the concussion protocol before kickoff, the special teams standout could be starting, too.

And on Monday, the Colts added another New England fan favorite — receiver Deion Branch, the Super Bowl MVP in the Patriots’ last title run. Saturday will be his first trip to New England’s visiting locker room, and Branch isn’t entirely sure about how he’ll be treated by the fans who warmly embraced him for so many years.

“I think so far it’s been a little 75-25 (positive),” Branch said, based on what he’s heard about the fans’ reaction to signing with Indy (12-5). “Most everybody understands and they respect that, but then you have those die-hard fans.”

Massachusetts native Matt Hasselbeck is one of three Colts players — along with left tackle Anthony Castonzo and right tackle Gosder Cherilus — who played at Boston College, and he knows enough about the city and its fans to know the boos are nothing personal.

DOWN IN A PARTIAL WHEN A GAME MAKES

By Phillip Alder

It is bad enough to godown in a partscore contractafter the defenders play well.But then to notice that youcould have made game in adifferent strain really rubssalt into the wound.

In this deal, how can East-West defeat two clubs? Andwhich game can be made?

South was a tad cautiouswhen he rebid two clubs,not three clubs. It is true thatthree would have been aslight overbid, but with suchgood clubs, it would havebeen acceptable.

It was normal for Northto pass over two clubs. Overthree clubs, though, he wouldhave continued with three

hearts, and South would havesigned off in three no-trumpwith his spade stopper. Notethat as the cards lie, three no-trump is unbeatable. Even ifWest is psychic and leads adiamond, declarer can winon the board and play onhearts. (And, yes, on anothersubject, some Wests wouldrisk a takeout double overone club, hoping that if part-ner advances in diamonds,he has good length there.)

The defense against twoclubs is instructive. WhenWest leads his heart ace,East drops the seven, start-ing a high-low (echo) withhis doubleton. West cashesthe heart king, then leadsthe heart eight, his higherremaining heart being a suit-preference signal for spades.East ruffs and shifts to thespade queen.

Let’s assume South covers

with his king. West wins withhis ace and carefully cashesthe spade 10. Now, with everyside-suit trick taken, Westleads his last heart. WhenEast ruffs with his club jack,it effects an uppercut. Southoverruffs, but now West col-lects the sixth defensive trickwith his club 10.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and Iare a young couple, married almosttwo years. He recently told me he isn’thappy with me anymore and that hemay want to leave. He won’t tell mewhy. He says he doesn’t know why.

It was a complete shock tome. He refuses to seek marriagecounseling and has dealt witha lot of depression for which hewon’t seek help, either.We havea child, and I am now pregnantagain. It hasn’t changed histhoughts about leaving.

What should I do for myselfand our children? What can Ido to help my husband changehis mind? I’m still deeply inlove with him. -- CONFUSED IN SOUTH CAROLINA

DEAR CONFUSED: I can onlyimagine how painful this must befor you. Because your husband won’tsee a counselor about your marriageor do anything about his depression,then YOU should. And when you do,start figuring out a “plan B” for howyou will support your children if itbecomes necessary. You should alsoconsult an attorney who can help youensure that your husband lives up tohis responsibilities if he does decideto leave.

The reason for your husband’sambivalence will become apparentin time. You may love him deeply,but for your sake and that of yourchildren, it’s important you stay calmand rational.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 17-year-old girl,turning 18 soon. Ever since I startedhigh school, my family has pressuredme to do my best in everything I do.Some examples: my grades, havingthe perfect boyfriend and being firstin sports.

I know they want the best for me.

But I’m a human being. I sometimesmake mistakes. At the same time, Idon’t want to disappoint them. Whatshould I do? Should I tell them to getoff my back or continue to accepttheir pressure? -- TEEN IN TURMOIL,

TULSA, OKLA.DEAR TEEN: Your parents

probably push you becausethey want you to get a collegeeducation. Good grades,various activities and a talentfor sports can make you amore attractive candidate.There are ways to tell your

parents to ease up withoutsaying, “Get off my back.”Your message might be better

received if you said to them what youwrote to me: “I know you want what’sbest for me. I don’t want to disappointyou. But I’m a human being and Isometimes make mistakes. I love you,but the pressure is getting to me.”It’s not hostile, and they may hearwhat you’re saying without becomingdefensive.

DEAR ABBY: My brother-in-lawis a registered sex offender. I amuncomfortable having him stay atour house with my husband and meand our children. My mother-in-lawinsists we need to forgive him and lethim stay. I hate putting my husband inthe middle (it is his sister’s husband),but I do not want him under our roofovernight.

Am I right to refuse, or do I lethim stay and be on major guard? --MOMMY IN MEMPHIS

DEAR MOMMY: As a mother, itis your job to protect your children.Because you feel your brother-in-lawmight be a danger to them, he shouldsleep elsewhere -- and “forgiveness”has nothing to do with it.
