Local runner at BostonMarathon recounts tragedy

BY KRISTEN CZABANTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

Editor’s note: The Associated Press contributed to this report.

SHERIDAN — In addition to strength andconditioning training, many long-distance run-ners will tell you that mental toughness is keyto completing a race. No amount of trainingcould have prepared runners like Sheridan’sDel Acker for what happened Monday.

Two bombs blew up seconds apart at the fin-ish line of one of the world’s most storiedraces, leaving the streets spattered with bloodand glass, three dead, more than 140 woundedand gaping questions of who chose to attack atthe Boston Marathon and why.

“Boston is a resilient city but it is too earlyto tell,” Acker said of the atmosphere inBoston Monday night. Acker communicated

with The Press via email as cell phones werenot working in Boston Monday night.

Acker ran his 12th consecutive BostonMarathon Monday, finishing in three hoursand 40 minutes — not his best time, but fasterthan last year when temperatures hit 90degrees.

Acker said he finished about 40 minutesbefore the bombs exploded. His wife, Peggy,always cheers from the sidelines during therace, but had already headed to the familymeeting area to catch up with Acker after therace.

“We first heard the emergency vehicles as wewere leaving the area and didn’t know whathad happened until we dashed into a down-town hotel to watch first news reports on localtelevision,” Acker said.

Del Acker, right, stands at the finish line of the Boston Marathon Sunday, the day before two bombs explod-ed, killing three and injuring more than 140 people.

Foundationbolsters

local healthcare services

BY HANNAH WIESTTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN — Without it, can-cer, cardiac, kidney and emer-gency care would be less compre-hensive services offered atSheridan Memorial Hospital.

Without it, the hospital wouldbe smaller and health care inSheridan would look a lot differ-ent.

But with it, Sheridan MemorialHospital is something the com-munity can be proud of. With the

Foundation — and its 1,500 mem-bers who financially support itsefforts — Sheridan MemorialHospital continues to expand tomeet more health care needs inthe Sheridan community.

“I can’t picture the hospitalbeing able to do what it’s done interms of taking care of the com-munity and putting in the facili-ties and the services that wehave,” hospital CEO MikeMcCafferty said. “There’s somany things the community ben-efits from that we provide only

because of the philanthropy wehave in this community. We’revery fortunate.”

The Foundation is approaching40 years of service to theSheridan community, accordingto Executive Director AdaKirven. It was founded in 1976 tobring philanthropy to the hospi-tal and to enable administratorsto focus on health care ratherthan fundraising efforts toexpand services.

Developmentproposal nixed


SHERIDAN — At the April 1 CityCouncil meeting a controversialdevelopment on the corner ofBrundage Lane and Big HornAvenue was tabled for later consid-eration.

Since that meeting, the developerof Skyview West, a proposed 76-unit apartment complex consistingof one-, two- and three-story units,has withdrawn the conceptualplan that would have required aplanned unit development.

Phoenix Limited Partnership,owned by Kim Love, intends tochange the plans, according to anotice of withdrawal submitted toMayor Dave Kinskey on Thursday.

The new plans will maintain thecurrent R-3 Residential zoning,which has been contested by near-by landowners who say one tractof the land was never officiallyrezoned and should be R-1.

Love has asked that the city dealwith a petition brought by morethan 200 nearby residents in May2011 asking for the land to be offi-cially re-zoned back to R-1.

Cap. tax talkskick off


SHERIDAN — Sheridan CityCouncil approved a resolutioninviting Ranchester, Dayton,Clearmont and the SheridanCounty commissioners to beginthe process of proposing projectsto be funded by the CapitalFacilities Tax at its regular meet-ing Monday.

Once projects are approved, thecity, county and area towns willset funding needs for each projectto determine the total amount tobe raised by the tax. That amountand the specific purposes it willbe used for will then go before vot-ers on the November 2013 ballot.

“The Capital Facilities Tax is aspecific purpose tax that is set fora dollar amount,” city Clerk ScottBadley said. “It runs the length ittakes to either complete the proj-ects or collect that amount oftax.”

The tax is a sales and use taxthat cannot exceed 2 percent perdollar.

Beef producerswon’t face new

regulations dueto brucellosis

BY PAOLO CISNEROSTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN — Despite mountingconcerns that area elk may havecontracted brucellosis — an abor-tion-inducing disease that can eas-ily be transferred to cattle — theWyoming Livestock Board’s stateveterinarian isn’t ready to expandregulations for beef producers.

At a meeting Monday hosted byMoxey Schreiber VeterinaryHospital and held at SheridanCollege, a team of veterinary sci-ence and wildlife managementexperts said while the situation isno doubt serious, state and federalagencies are doing everything pos-sible to protect Wyoming ranchersand their ability to make a living.

For now at least, that means cat-tle producers won’t face additionalhurdles when it comes to export-ing their calves.

“At this point in time that is notbeing discussed,” said Dr. WaltCook, brucellosis coordinator atthe University of Wyoming.

Instead, state agencies are look-ing to push voluntary testing andcommunity efforts to keep herdsphysically segregated from elkand the bacteria that causes thedisease.

Cook said a united effort on thepart of ranchers is particularlyimportant since vets in otherstates would be within their rightsto place restrictions on the impor-tation of Wyoming beef.

The discovery of brucellosisantibodies in area elk caught stateofficials off guard since Wyoming,along with every other state in thenation, has been recognized asbrucellosis-free since midwaythrough the 20th Century.

FOUNDATION: Benefit set for Saturday nightFROM 1

To date, the Foundation hasraised more than $30 million tosupport programs and capitalcampaigns for new buildings andnew equipment.

Funds have come from dona-tions large and small, from chari-table trusts, planned giving, localfoundations, hospital employeecontributions and yearlyfundraising events such as theLink, a walk/run for breast can-cer awareness, and the AnnualBenefit. This year’s Benefit— the11th — will be held Saturday andwill feature a reception and a per-formance by local music group,Wren, at the WYO Theater.

The Foundation was a volun-teer-run nonprofit for its first 20years and continues to rely on thetime and guidance of dozens ofvolunteers.

“The success that we feel todayis because of the work of thosefirst board members and the firstvolunteers that we had workingon Foundation projects,” Kirvensaid.

In the mid-90s, the hospital

began to look at building a newpatient wing and decided it need-ed help with the capital cam-paign. The Foundation hired itsfirst director and began to growmembership and fundraisingefforts as it partnered with thehospital on attaining goals in themaster plan.

“We’re a good fit together,”Kirven said. “We’re making surethat people are confident whenthey make their choice to stayhere and receive their care.”

Kirven sees that confidence inthe hospital reflected inFoundation membership, whichhas increased from 83 membersin 1991 to more than 1,500 in 2013.While many may consider suchgrowth exponential, Kirven seesit as gradual, built through inten-tional, one-on-one relationshipswith community members inter-ested in supporting somethingmeaningful like health care.

Tom Ringley, county commis-sioner, served as director of theFoundation from 2000 to 2008. Heand Kirven worked together onseveral projects in that timeframeincluding a nursing scholarship

program at Sheridan College, anemployee partner program to getemployees invested in supportingthe hospital, expansion of theGriffith Memorial EmergencyDepartment, addition of the WattDialysis Center and addition ofthe Welch Cancer Center.

“I’ve always found that if youhave a worthwhile project, peopleunderstand the importance of itand are willing to step up to theplate to help out,” Ringley said.“The Foundation just keeps get-ting stronger and stronger. I ampositive it will continue to be suc-cessful and support SheridanMemorial Hospital in the bestpossible way.”

In recent years, the Foundationhas focused on improving criticalcare in Sheridan. The CardiacCatheterization lab has servedmore than 50 patients since open-ing in January, and efforts areunderway to expand the IntensiveCare Unit at the hospital.

“From birth to the end of life,we’re here to support familiesand loved ones through those dif-ficult times and through thosegood times,” Kirven said.

FROM STAFF REPORTS

SHERIDAN — Our website hasbeen in the ditch, as the sayinggoes. Under repair.

We messed up, we know it andwe are in the process of remedy.Today, we launch again – a newwebsite, what we call www.thesh-eridanpress.com, version 2.0.

This is an apology for all thehassles, a timeline of events, anexplanation of what happenedand what’s ahead as we move for-ward.

In late 2011, The Sheridan Pressdecided to upgrade its first-everwebsite. The old one was a bit ofa clunker and wasn’t flexible tothe demands of an ever-growingonline readership. We went froma basic online presence, to a sitethat was designed, hosted andsupported by an Illinois-basedcompany, TownNews. That web-site upgrade gave the Press theability to post photo galleries, pro-vide breaking news, video report-ing and many other features. Itwas a step forward.

As time passed, however, webecame frustrated with customerservice issues, communicationdifficulties and we wanted to “golocal” with our online media.Ptolemy Data Systems, our tech-

nology vendor since2010, has done a ter-rific job with us andwe will expand ourrelationship withthem as our host.

The website designcomponent of theproject, which datedback to late last year,was the part of theequation that didn’twork out. Newspaperwebsites, given theexpansive content ofstories, photos,videos, submissionforms for advertisingand news releases,have a lot of movingparts. The day welaunched ourredesigned website,March 4, was a disas-ter. The website wasdysfunctional andincomplete. To easethe collective onlinepain, we removedour “pay wall,” putting all contentonline free of charge.

Since March 4, we have movedforward.

The Sheridan Press contractedwith Henry Lopez of Santa Fe.His company, Lopez Web Works, is

one that’s plugged into the digitalworld of newspapers nationally.Lopez is a respected designer andconsultant. He dropped what hewas doing, rode to our rescue, tak-ing residence in one of our smalloffices and began the rebuild

from scratch. Lopezaccomplished muchin a short periodwith competence,grace and humor.The end result iswhat we launchtoday. It is a newwebsite that is effi-cient, attractive; it’seasy to use and onethat will serve oursubscribers, adver-tisers and thegreater Sheridancommunity. ThePress’ digital mediawill continue to be apart of the greaterpackage of printand online media,the leading source oflocal news and mar-keting.

Let us know whatyou think.

We have expandedour national contentwith The Associated

Press to include Digital AP, a pro-gram that features more nationaland regional news, more sportsand videos from the NFL, collegesports and Major LeagueBaseball, all of it updating itself.This is a big deal and we’re the

only local news source that hasthis feature.

Another unique feature iswhat’s called “responsive design.”This is a reasonably new develop-ment in online media — a designthat compels our website to theshape of the device from whichthe reader is using it — desktopcomputer, laptop, tablet or smart-phone.

We have new online featurescoming soon that will furtherexpand our content. More aboutthat later. Today, the launch.

For the next few weeks, all con-tent will remain free of charge tofamiliarize readers with the newwebsite.

To be fair, those subscriberswho were with us when it fellapart March 4 and stayed with us,you’ll have your online subscrip-tion extended.

As always, we thank you forreading The Sheridan Press.

Judge grants retrial based on DNA testCHEYENNE (AP) — A judge

in Cheyenne has grantedWyoming’s first retrial based onDNA evidence.

Andrew J. Johnson has servedmore than 23 years of a life-in-prison sentence after being con-victed of breaking into aCheyenne woman’s apartmentand raping her in 1989.

On Tuesday, Laramie CountyDistrict Judge ThomasCampbell granted Johnson anew trial. Recent testing showsJohnson was not the source ofmale DNA taken from the victimafter the attack.

The DNA instead matches thevictim’s fiance at the time.

Johnson remains in jail but

could be released on $10,000bond. Relatives of Johnsonexpressed mixed emotions aboutthe judge’s ruling — happinessabout a new trial but disappoint-ment the judge didn’t dismissthe case.

District Attorney Scott Homarsays he still has considerableother evidence against Johnson.

Of film……….The Jackie Robinson biopic, ’42,’ now

showing at the Centennial Theatre isworth a look. It’s the story of Robinson’sbreaking of the color barrier in MajorLeague Baseball in 1947 and the racismand ostracism he and his wife, Rachel,who is still alive and graceful at 90, faced.Says writer Kostya Kennedy: “The factthat Robinson played in the major leaguesmade he marquee and drew the crowds,but it was how he played that reformedprejudice and delivered the more cogentblow to ignorance and hate.”

Mrs. Robinson says actor ChadwickBoseman captured her late husband’s“dignity” and “got the (batting) stanceright.” Both Mrs. Robinson and formerBrooklyn Dodgers pitcher Ralph Brancawere involved in the movie as advisors.

Surprisingly, it’s the first film aboutRobinson in 63 years. In 1950, Robinsonplayed himself in a low-budget produc-tion. There’s a couple of “calculated”exaggerations but for the most part, it’sfaithful to the books by ArnoldRamperstad and others.

It doesn’t cover any of the other nineseasons he played with the BrooklynDodgers or his post-baseball life where hewas involved in business, civil rights caus-es and was a Republican Party activist.

Harrison Ford just nails the part ofBranch Rickey. It’s a good movie, fersure.

Fact-free crusades

Amid all the heated, emotional advo-cacy of gun control, have you everheard even one person present con-vincing hard evidence that tighter

gun control laws have in fact reducedmurders?

Think about all the states, communi-ties within states, as well as foreigncountries, that have either tight gun con-trol laws or loose or non-existent guncontrol laws. With so many variationsand so many sources of evidence avail-able, surely there would be some com-pelling evidence somewhere if tightergun control laws actually reduced themurder rate.

And if tighter gun control laws don'tactually reduce the murder rate, thenwhy are we being stampeded towardsuch laws after every shooting that getsmedia attention?

The dirty little secret is that gun con-trol laws do not actually control guns.They disarm law-abiding citizens, mak-ing them more vulnera-ble to criminals, whoremain armed in disre-gard of such laws.

In England, armedcrimes skyrocketed aslegal gun ownershipalmost vanished underincreasingly severe guncontrol laws in the late20th century. (See thebook "Guns andViolence" by Joyce LeeMalcolm). But gun con-trol has become one ofthose fact-free crusades, based onassumptions, emotions and rhetoric.

What almost no one talks about is thatguns are used to defend lives as well as totake lives. In fact, many of the horrifickillings that we see in the media werebrought to an end when someone elsewith a gun showed up and put a stop tothe slaughter.

Many people who have never fired agun in their lives, and never faced life-threatening dangers, nevertheless feelqualified to impose legal restrictions thatcan be fatal to others. And politicianseager to "do something" that gets thempublicity know that the votes of the igno-rant and the gullible are still votes.

Restricting the magazine capacityavailable to law-abiding citizens will notrestrict the magazine capacity of peoplewho are not law-abiding citizens. Suchrestrictions just mean that the law-abid-ing citizen is likely to run out of ammu-nition first.

Someone would have to be an incredi-ble sharpshooter to fend off three homeinvaders with just seven shots at movingtargets. But seven is the magic numberof bullets allowed in a magazine underNew York State's new gun control laws.

Banning so-called "assault weapons" isa farce, as well as a fraud, because thereis no concrete definition of an assaultweapon.

Some people may think that "assaultweapons" means automatic weapons. Butautomatic weapons were banned decadesago. Banning ugly-looking "assaultweapons" may have aesthetic benefits,but it does not reduce the dangers tohuman life in the slightest. You are justas dead when killed by a very plain-look-ing gun.

Leniency toward criminals has longbeen part of the pattern of gun controlzealots on both sides of the Atlantic.When the insatiable desire to crack downon law-abiding citizens with guns is com-bined with an attitude of leniencytoward criminals, it can hardly be sur-prising when tighter gun control lawsare accompanied by rising rates ofcrime, including murders.

ea party titan Rand Paul, visitingHoward University on Wednesday,told students that he had beencalled "either brave or crazy to be

here" at the historically black college.Probably some of each: brave, because

he's trying to sell himself and fellowRepublicans to African-Americans, asingularly resistant demographic; andcrazy, because he based his pitch onrevised history and airbrushed facts —and the Howard kids weren't fooled.

"No Republican questions or disputescivil rights," the senator from Kentuckyproclaimed. "I've never wavered in mysupport for civil rights or the CivilRights Act."

Howzat? As a candidate in 2010, Paul ques-

tioned the constitutionality of the CivilRights Act's Title II, which prohibits pri-vate discrimination. "I don't want to beassociated with those people," he saidwhen MSNBC's Rachel Maddow askedhim about private businesses that refuseto serve black customers, "but I alsodon't want to limit their speech in anyway in the sense that we tolerate boor-ish and uncivilized behavior becausethat's one of the things freedomrequires."

Asked by the moderator at Howard toexplain his claim that he never spokeout against the Civil Rights Act, Paulprovided the creative rationale that hewas talking "about the ramifications ofcertain portions of the Civil Rights Actbeyond race, as are now being applied tosmoking, menus, listing calories andthings on menus and guns."

Paul acknowledged that his wooing ofAfrican-Americans "is an uphill battle,"and his hour with the students con-firmed this. Talking about theRepublicans' historical support for civilrights, he said: "I'll give you one exam-ple. The first, one of the African-American U.S. senators was a guynamed, uh, I'm blanking on his name,from Massachusetts — "

"Edward Brooke!" several in the audi-ence called out.

"Edwin Brookes," Paul repeated. The students broke out in hysterics.

The laughter had barely subsided whenPaul posed a question. "If I were to havesaid, 'Who do you think the founders ofthe NAACP are?' ... would everybody inhere know they were all Republicans?"

"Yes," several could be heard grum-bling. "Of course they would," onewoman informed him.

Paul dug himself in deeper. "I don'tknow what you know," he said.

They knew enough to be suspicious ofhis central argument: that AbrahamLincoln's Republican Party is the sameRepublican Party that now dominatesthe South. This analysis glossed over the

civil rights era, whenDemocrats andRepublicans essential-ly switched sides asSouthern Dixiecratsleft for the GOP.

"Democrats inLouisville were led byCourier-JournalEditor HenryWatterson and wereimplacably opposed toblacks voting," Paulargued. Wattersondied in 1921.

"Meanwhile," he continued, "Kentucky'sDemocrat-controlled legislature votedagainst the 13th, the 14th and the 15thamendments." In the 1860s.

A student questioner sought clarifica-tion. "Are we discussing the RepublicanParty of the 19th century?" he asked, toapplause. "Or are we discussing the post-1968 Republican Party?"

"The argument I'm trying to make iswe haven't changed," Paul proposed.

The Howard students weren't hostile tothe senator as much as indifferent.Campus police swarmed outside the halland erected barricades, although theyproved unnecessary. Doors opened anhour early, but seats didn't fill up untilthe last minute, and many spent theirtime texting and fanning themselves inthe overheated hall.

"My hope is that you will hear me out,"Paul asked, and all appeared to — exceptfor senior Brian Menifee, who raised ahand-lettered banner announcing that"Howard University Doesn't SupportWhite Supremacy." Police threw him outroughly, and other students cheered.

But Paul got no cheers for most of hisideas: criticizing Democrats' "unlimitedfederal assistance," calling private-school choice "the civil rights issue ofour day" and saying that "there areRepublicans who don't clamor for war."He did better with his proposal to repealmandatory minimum sentences but hedrew boos when he defended voter-IDlaws.

"I come to Howard," Paul said, "to sayI want a government that leaves youalone." He argued that "objective evi-dence shows that big government is nota friend to African-Americans."

Freshman Keenan Glover disagreed. "Iwant a government that's going to helpme," he said. "I want a government that'sgoing to help me pay for my college edu-cation."

"We can disagree," the senator said,then upgraded his pessimism. "Probably,we're going to end up disagreeing."

Alaska-based military policeman gets 16 years in spy caseJOINT BASE ELMENDORF-

RICHARDSON, Alaska (AP) — AnAlaska-based military policemanwill serve 16 years in prison andwill be dishonorably dischargedfor selling secrets to an FBI under-cover agent who he believed was aRussian spy, a panel of eight mili-tary members has decided.

Spec. William Colton Millay, ofOwensboro, Ky., pleaded guilty lastmonth to attempted espionage andother counts. He was sentencedMonday.

Military prosecutors paintedhim as a white supremacist whowas fed up with the Army and the

United States, and was willing tosell secrets to an enemy agent,even if that would cost fellow sol-diers their lives.

Defense attorneys said Millaywas emotionally stunted, was onlyseeking attention and was a candi-date for rehabilitation.

Monday’s proceedings were likea mini-trial conducted in front ofthe sentencing panel, with bothsides calling two witnesses.

FBI Special Agent DerrickChriswell said Millay came totheir attention in the summer of2011 through an anonymous tipafter Millay sent an email to a

Russian publication seeking infor-mation about the military andmade several calls to the Russianembassy.

“That’s a concern for nationalsecurity,” Chriswell said.

The FBI, working with militaryintelligence agencies, conductedthe investigation.

On Sept. 13, 2011, an FBI under-cover agent called Millay and setup a meeting the next day at anAnchorage hotel-restaurant.

Chriswell testified that duringthe first meeting with the agent,Millay “expressed his disgust withthe U.S. military.” They then

moved to the agent’s hotel room,where audio and video recordingdevices were in place.

Millay, 24, said he’d work for theRussian government, and if theymade it worth his while, he’d re-enlist for a second five-year stint.He also said he had confidentialinformation on the Warlock Dukejamming system the U.S. militaryuses to sweep roadside bombs.

Two days after that meeting,Millay reported to his commanderthat he had been contacted by aRussian agent. He was later inter-rogated by military intelligenceofficers and the FBI.

Secretary of State Kerry visits family of slain U.S. diplomatCHICAGO (AP) — U.S.

Secretary of State JohnKerry stopped in Chicagoon Monday to visit the par-ents of the young U.S.diplomat who was killedwhile delivering textbooksin southern Afghanistanearlier this month.

Kerry made the detouron his way back fromJapan, the final leg of a 10-day overseas tour whichstarted with tragedy whenhe learned of AnneSmedinghoff ’s death whilereadying to depart forTurkey on April 6.

At the time, a clearlyaffected Kerry contactedSmedinghoff ’s parents,Tom and Mary Beth, fromAndrews Air Force Base.On Monday, he flew indirectly to see them andSmedinghoff ’s three sib-

lings.Smedinghoff was just 25

when she and four otherAmericans were killedwhile walking from a mili-tary base to a nearbyschool. Two explosionsoccurred, apparently a sui-cide car bombing followedby a roadside blast.

An FBI investigation isin its preliminary stages.

The diplomat’s father,Tom Smedinghoff, says theKerry visit was only thelatest by people in the U.S.diplomatic corps whoreached out to the family.

“It really reinforces forus that Ann was part of avery close-knit family ofvery dedicated people whoare serving our country,”he said.

Kerry told embassy staffin Tokyo that Smedinghoff

was “full of idealism andfull of hopes, taking booksto children in a school sothey can learn.”

She was “wiped out byterrorism — the worst kindof nihilism,” he said.

“It doesn’t stand for any-thing except killing peopleand stopping the future,”Kerry said. “And so we’renot going to be deterred.We’re going to be inspired.And we’re going to useAnne’s idealism as anothermotivation.”

Kerry declared the pro-tection of American for-eign service officers his toppriority when started assecretary of state inFebruary, andSmedinghoff ’s death is thefirst of an American diplo-mat since militantsattacked a U.S. diplomatic

installation in Benghazi,Libya, on Sept. 11, killingAmbassador Chris Stevensand three other Americans.

The young woman’sdeath came just two weeksafter Kerry met her whileon a visit to Afghanistan.Smedinghoff served as hiscontrol officer, an honoroften bestowed on up-and-coming members of theU.S. foreign service.

Smedinghoff, who grewup in River Forest, Ill., wason her second tour ofdiplomatic duty. She servedpreviously in Venezuela.

The attack also killedthree U.S. service mem-bers, a U.S. civilian whoworked for the DefenseDepartment and an Afghandoctor.

Three other diplomatswere injured. The most

serious is Kelly Hunt, apublic diplomacy officer,who is being treated at aU.S. military base inGermany.

UW to confer 2 honorary degreesLARAMIE (AP) — The University of Wyoming will con-

fer honorary doctoral degrees upon two individuals whoare recognized internationally as leaders in their profes-sions.

They are Sheridan native Nancy Gwinn, director of theSmithsonian Libraries; and Casper native Dr. StephenNicholas, a world-renowned pediatric AIDS specialist.

Both are UW alumni, and they will receive the college’shighest award during UW Commencement on May 11.

UW bestows honorary degrees on individuals whoembody the university’s high ideals.

BOSTON: Sheridan runner vows to compete in Boston as many years as he qualifiesFROM 1

He added that due to the location of theblasts on Boylston Street, which is the lastquarter mile of the 26.2 mile race, specta-tors likely would have been stacked four tofive people deep in front of the explosions.

“They took the brunt of the terribleattack,” Acker said.

Federal investigators said no one hadclaimed responsibility for the bombings onone of the city’s most famous civic holi-days, Patriots Day. But the blasts among thethrongs of spectators raised fears of a ter-rorist attack.

“My reaction to the attack... ANGER for acruel and senseless attack that killed andinjured innocent people taking part in anhistoric athletic event on this New Englandholiday... Patriots Day,” Acker said.

President Barack Obama was careful notto use the words “terror” or “terrorism” ashe spoke at the White House Monday afterthe deadly bombings, but an administrationofficial said the bombings were being treat-ed as an act of terrorism.

“We will find out who did this. We’ll findout why they did this,” the president said.“Any responsible individuals, any responsi-ble groups, will feel the full weight of jus-tice.”

The FBI took charge of the investigationinto the bombings, serving a warrant lateMonday on a home in suburban Boston andappealing for any video, audio and stillimages taken by marathon spectators.

Acker said several events were canceledfollowing the blasts — people were asked tostay away from central Boston and theentire area around the explosions is offlimits. The Boston Bruins hockey gamethat day was also canceled, he said.

Acker said he and his wife are staying inCambridge and weren’t planning to leavetown until tomorrow.

Despite the attacks, Acker said he plansto run the Boston Marathon next year, andas many years as he can qualify for theevent.

The Ackers have lived in Sheridan for 30years. He is an architect with TSP and hiswife is a retired elementary school teacherwith Sheridan County School District 2.

The fiery explosions took place about 10seconds and about 100 yards apart, knock-ing spectators and at least one runner offtheir feet, shattering windows and sendingdense plumes of smoke rising over thestreet and through the fluttering national

flags lining the route.Blood stained the pavement, and huge

shards were missing from window panes ashigh as three stories. Victims suffered bro-ken bones, shrapnel wounds and rupturedeardrums.

Roupen Bastajian, a state trooper fromSmithfield, R.I., had just finished the racewhen he heard the explosions.

“I started running toward the blast. Andthere were people all over the floor,” hesaid. “We started grabbing tourniquets andstarted tying legs. A lot of people amputat-ed. ... At least 25 to 30 people have at leastone leg missing, or an ankle missing, ortwo legs missing.”

At Massachusetts General Hospital,Alasdair Conn, chief of emergency servic-es, said: “This is something I’ve never seenin my 25 years here ... this amount of car-nage in the civilian population. This iswhat we expect from war.”

As many as two unexploded bombs were

found near the end of the 26.2-mile courseas part of what appeared to be a well-coor-dinated attack, but they were safely dis-armed, according to a senior U.S. intelli-gence official, who also spoke on conditionof anonymity because of the continuinginvestigation.

WBZ-TV reported late Monday that lawenforcement officers were searching anapartment in the Boston suburb of Revere.Massachusetts State Police confirmed thata search warrant related to the investiga-tion into the explosions was served Mondaynight in Revere, but provided no furtherdetails.

Some investigators were seen leaving theRevere house early Tuesday carryingbrown paper bags, plastic trash bags and aduffel bag.

Police said three people were killed. An 8-year-old boy was among the dead, accord-ing to a person who talked to a friend of thefamily and spoke on condition of anonymi-

ty. The person said the boy’s mother andsister were also injured as they waited forhis father to finish the race.

Hospitals reported at least 144 peopleinjured, at least 17 of them critically. Atleast eight children were being treated athospitals.

Tim Davey of Richmond, Va., was withhis wife, Lisa, and children near a medicaltent that had been set up to care forfatigued runners when the injured beganarriving. “They just started bringing peo-ple in with no limbs,” he said.

“Most everybody was conscious,” LisaDavey said. “They were very dazed.”

The Boston Marathon is one of theworld’s oldest and most prestigious racesand about 23,000 runners participated. Therace honored the victims of the Newtown,Conn., shooting with a special mile markerin Monday’s race.

Boston Athletic Association presidentJoanne Flaminio previously said there was“special significance” to the fact that therace is 26.2 miles long and 26 people died atSandy Hook Elementary School.

One of the city’s biggest annual events,the race winds up near Copley Square, notfar from the landmark Prudential Centerand the Boston Public Library. It is held onPatriots Day, which commemorates the firstbattles of the American Revolution, atConcord and Lexington in 1775.

With scant official information to guidethem, members of Congress said there waslittle or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.

“We just don’t know whether it’s foreignor domestic,” said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committeeon Homeland Security.

A few miles away from the finish line andaround the same time, a fire broke out atthe John F. Kennedy Library. The policecommissioner said that it may have beencaused by an incendiary device but it wasnot clear whether it was related.

The bombings occurred about four hoursinto the race and two hours after the men’swinner crossed the finish line. By thatpoint, more than 17,000 of the athletes hadfinished the marathon, but thousands morewere still running.

The attack may have been timed for maxi-mum carnage: The four-hour mark is typi-cally a crowded time near the finish linebecause of the slow-but-steady recreationalrunners completing the race and because ofall the friends and relatives clusteredaround to cheer them on.

PROPOSAL: Developer wants city to address thepetition from neighbors

FROM 1

That petition was tabled and was not addressed whilecompromises for the development were discussed, eventu-ally leading to the proposed PUD that has now been with-drawn.

“Part of my request has to do with the fact that we haveasked the city to dispose of that petition, one way or theother, that came before them,” Love said. “We want thecity to take it off the table and vote on it one way or anoth-er. I’m nervous about that legal cloud hanging over it.”

Love said if the city decides to approve the petition andrezone part of his property to R-1, he will sue the city fordamages.

“We did everything we were legally supposed to. As faras I’m concerned, we didn’t do anything underhanded. Ibought a piece of property. There was an issue. We went tocourt, and the court filed in our favor,” Love said about adeclaratory judgment that ruled both tracts of propertywere R-3 as indicated on a city zoning map.

Love said he wasn’t sure when plans for the new develop-ment will be resubmitted for consideration.

BEEF: No plans to expand disease surveillance areaFROM 1

The disease — which is often con-sidered a serious economic threat bycattle producers — is only known topersist in the area immediately sur-rounding Yellowstone NationalPark.

Cattle produced inside what theWyoming Game and FishDepartment refers to as the desig-nated surveillance area face height-ened restrictions when it comes totesting and exporting their animals.Beef from other areas of the statewere not previously considered atrisk.

But according to blood tests per-formed by Game and Fish, a pair ofelk harvested last year on the west-ern slope of the Bighorn Mountainstested sero-positive for brucellosis.

While a sero-positive result doesnot prove definitively that an animalis infected with the disease — only atime-consuming and costly analysisof bodily tissue can do that — itdoes indicate exposure to the bacte-ria that causes it.

Game and Fish officials obtainedthe specimens through voluntaryblood sample submissions fromhunters during the 2012 elk season.

Testing kits were not distributedon the Sheridan side of the moun-tains in 2012.

But of more than 600 testing kitsmailed to hunters on the west side ofthe range, the department receivedonly 25 usable samples over thecourse of the season. Two of thosetested positive for exposure.

Wildlife experts admitted thatsuch a small sample can’t tell themmuch about the possible prevalenceof brucellosis antibodies in area elk.

“That’s what has everybody fromthe governor on down concerned,”said Regional Wildlife SupervisorJoe Gilbert.

Brucellosis is a threat to ranchersthanks largely to the inquisitivenature of cattle.

When exposed to an aborted fetus,cows tend to investigate by sniffingand licking the remains. That expo-sure can be sufficient for them tocontract the disease.

“We know that curiosity killed thecat, and in the case of brucellosis,curiosity infected the bovine,” Cooksaid.

As a result, speakers urged ranch-ers to strengthen the physical barri-ers between their herds and anyland where elk are known to travel.

Meanwhile, state agencies plan toincrease surveillance measures andwork with the federal government todetermine how best to fund addi-tional voluntary testing of Wyomingcattle.

They currently have no plans toexpand the designated brucellosissurveillance area and the height-ened restrictions that come with it.

‘We know that curiosity killedthe cat, and in the case of

brucellosis, curiosity infected thebovine.’

Last day at the mineBY PAOLO CISNEROSTHE SHERIDAN PRESS

DECKER, MONT. — As machineoperators and managers wentabout their business last Thursday,a melancholy air hung around theoffices of Spring Creek Coal Minejust north of Sheridan.

Out in the field, Joyce Neal — awoman affectionately known byher coworkers as Granny — wasputting in her last shift as a shoveloperator after three entire decadesat the mine.

“It’s a wonderful job,” Neal saidduring a break that afternoon. “I’mgoing to be sad when I leave.”

At 72 years old, Neal was not onlythe oldest employee on payroll atSpring Creek, but also one of only15 women employed at the facility.Nearly 260 people currently maketheir living at the mine.

A Wyoming ranch girl whoseexperience working the land led toa familiarity with large machinery,Neal said the Spring Creek envi-ronment had always been welcom-ing for her and the handful ofother women she’s worked withover the course of her 30 years onthe job.

While she can’t say for sure whyso few women enter the profession,Neal said she imagines that somemight be intimidated by the enor-mity of the machinery they’recharged with handling. Still, shesaid her gender never put her at adisadvantage when it came to fit-ting in.

“They’ve taken care of me sincethe day I came out here,” she said.“The people out here are special.”

In the hours leading up to the endof her time at the mine, facilitymanagers said Neal played a cru-cial role in shaping the uniqueemployee culture that developed atSpring Creek in recent years.

“We have (other) people that havethe skills Joyce has, but you can’treplace the person,” said Managerof Site Production Erik Strom.“She’s developed these people to begood, productive coal miners.”

Looking back on the years, that’san accomplishment Neal neverenvisioned for herself.

She came to Spring Creek earlyin the 1980s, looking simply for away to provide for her children.Recently divorced, she and her sis-

ter both set out looking for work ataround the same time. Eventually,Joyce was hired at Spring Creekand her sister took a position downthe road at Decker Mine.

The sisters, originally fromMeeteetse, learned quickly thatmining work suited them well.

“We both are ranch girls and wewanted to be outside,” she said.

Starting in the plant, Neal heldseveral positions over the course ofher tenure at Spring Creek, but itwasn’t until she worked her wayinto the role of shovel operatorthat she felt she had finally foundher place.

“I love my shovels,” she saidplainly.

Her enthusiasm wasn’t lost onher bosses who, several years ago,promoted her to step-in supervisorfor the occasions when the higher-ups were out of town.

Now a resident of Wyola, Mont.,Neal’s dedication to her professionwas the subject of much admira-tion from management during herfinal weeks at Spring Creek.

“It’s sad,” Human Resources

Manager Jean Fox said of Neal’sretirement. “She’s a huge part ofthis team.”

Looking ahead, Neal said sheplans on spending her newfoundfree time gardening, becomingmore actively involved with herchurch and — perhaps most excit-ingly — taking a cruise to Alaskathis summer with her sisters.

Still, she knows she’ll miss themine.

“In mining, (your coworkers)become your family,” she said. “Icome to work, and I’m home.”

She said she plans to visit everynow and then when she’s not off ona new adventure. It’s a promise herbosses hope she keeps.

As Neal’s time at the mine wind-ed down late last week, they saidher legacy will remain foreveretched on the history of the facili-ty.

“We’re not sure, but we thinkJoyce may have loaded more coalthan any employee at Spring Creekever,” Strom said. “She’s the basisof what Spring Creek has alwaysbeen.”

Veteran employee retires from male-dominated profession

Shovel operator Joyce Neal retired last week after 30 years at Spring Creek CoalMine. She was one of only a handful of women on the 257-member crew.

JIMMY GOLENASSOCIATED PRESS

EDITOR’S NOTE: Bostonsports writer Jimmy Golenwas covering his 18th BostonMarathon when he heard thebombs go off at the finishline. This is his account ofhow it unfolded.

BOSTON (AP) — Thisyear’s Boston Marathon hadseemed so normal.

The winners were a manfrom Ethiopia and a womanfrom Kenya, and even run-ners two hours behindraised their arms as theyfinished, ecstatic just tohave made it to the end ofone of the most grueling26.2-mile marathon courses.

Volunteers were on handto catch those who collapsedas they crossed the blue andyellow finish line.Spectators cheered not justfor family members but forevery “Dan” or “Alan”smart enough to write hisname on his shirt.

Then I heard the firstblast. I turned to see graysmoke billowing from thenorth side of BoylstonStreet and rising over thephoto bridge at the finishline. A few seconds latercame another blast.

I did what I was trained todo: I called the office andtold them what little I knew:“There were two explosionsat the finish line of theBoston Marathon.” I would-n’t be able to get through onmy cellphone again forhours. I texted my wife totell her I was safe, thoughshe didn’t know what hadhappened yet.

No one did, really. It couldhave been a gas explosion,but even without an expla-nation it was clear that peo-ple were hurt. The secondblast made it likely theywere intentional, and itmade me worry that therecould be more. I walkedtoward the damage, morethan anything else becauseI felt it was no more danger-ous there than anyplace elsein the area.

Race workers in yellowvolunteer jackets and policein yellow safety vests wererunning past me. EMTs car-ried their gear or pushedempty wheelchairs, fol-lowed soon by doctors intheir white volunteer jack-ets. Runners continued torun, stopping their watchesas they crossed the finishline, now confused as wellas tired.

I saw people crying.Runners and volunteers andfamily members. Policebegan clearing the area. Isaw people turned away,pleading with officials toget through so they couldsee their family members.

I saw two people in civil-ian clothes carrying awoman, who was not wear-ing running gear, with onearm over each shoulder andone leg in each arm. Bloodwas gushing from her leg. ABoston police officer wentby, pushed in a wheelchair.His pants had a small tearnear the ankle, and bloodwas dripping from his heel.Ambulances and policevehicles sped down

Unable to get through onmy cellphone, I went backto the media workroom so Icould communicate withmy editors on my laptop.The building would soon besealed. I was stuck there forthe next five hours, unableto report on the scene of thedisaster, unable to leave.

Reporters covering themarathon generally workfrom race headquarters inthe Fairmont Copley hotel.It is a lush ballroom with afresco ceiling and plasterfrieze and large arched andcurtained windows that, onPatriots Day, are blocked bya 6-foot high, 30-foot longtracking board that updatesthe media on the progressof the race. It can be a ster-ile way to experience whatis often an exciting occa-sion.

I had grown familiar withthe pace of the day: a slowbuildup to the finish, then aflurry of activity as a seriesof winners — first thewheelchairs, then thewomen and men — arrivedin Copley Square. I couldusually count on things tosettle down by midafter-noon. After my stories areedited and sent on TheAssociated Press wire, I liketo head out to the course geta feel for how the day went.

I remember last year thesmell of sunscreen and thesteady parade of competi-tors being ushered orwheeled to the medical tentto be treated for dehydra-tion. This year’s race didn’tseem to offer any of theusual sidelights: neitherunusual weather nor a sur-prising American con-tender nor even the ques-tion of trying to figure outwhether the Robert KipronoCheruiyot of Kenya whowon in 2010 was related tothe Robert KipkoechCheruiyot of Kenya whohad won four times before.

I went looking for a friendwho was expected to comein around that time. Iwalked through the VIPstands, trying to keep oneeye on the course and oneon the stands, where herfamily would be waiting.

Rested and ready, Manning

kicks off 2013ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — The arm: rested.

The receiving corps: restocked.Peyton Manning returned to Broncos head-

quarters Monday, starting voluntary workoutswith his group of receivers, which now includesWes Welker, formerly the top target for TomBrady and the New England Patriots.

The 37-year-old quarterback was working witha few of his teammates a week ago at Duke,where the quarterback’s former college coach,David Cutcliffe, ran a mini-camp of sorts withManning, his brother, Eli, and an assortment ofBroncos and Giants receivers.

After taking two months away fromfootball — about a month more thanhe’d hoped for — Manning, like anyquarterback, was happy to have givenhis arm a rest. But, he said, it’s hardto gauge the way he feels this springcompared to last. He conceded heisn’t sure if he’ll ever get back towhere he was before the neck surger-ies that cost him the 2011 season.

“Whether that’s possible or not, I’m probablynever going to know the answer until I stop play-ing,” Manning said. “I’m never going to stop try-ing to get back to that point. I actually madesome improvements since last year but still havea plan with the trainers, a plan with the strengthcoaches.”

As last year progressed, Manning declaredhimself fit enough for NFL action — both withhis words and his play on the field, where hethrew for 4,659 yards and 37 touchdowns, boththe second-best totals in his career.

His final game, in the playoffs againstBaltimore, wasn’t one of his best, however.

In 13-degree weather, Manning threw two inter-ceptions, lost a fumble and fell to 0-4 lifetimewhen starting games where the temperature was40 degrees or less. As the season progressed, headmitted that the feeling in his throwing handhadn’t fully returned. He wore an orange-and-gray glove to try to help him with his grip.

But as much as he practiced with the glove, heacknowledged there wasn’t much he could do tosimulate a real-life situation in the freezing cold.It hasn’t gone unnoticed that this season’s SuperBowl will take place outdoors in New York. Italso didn’t go unnoticed that his first week of2013 workouts in Denver were greeted by temper-atures in the 30s and a spring snowstorm bear-ing down. Good practice for Manning, one of themost meticulously prepared quarterbacks in thegame. Figuring out the timing with receiversunder all conditions, good and bad, is a full-timejob, not simply one that starts and ends during“football season.”

CASPER (AP) — Casper College is promoting assistantmen’s basketball coach Dan Russell to be theThunderbirds’ next head basketball coach.

Russell will take over for Joel Davidson, who resignedlast week to accept an assistant coaching position withNorthern Colorado.

Russell had been Davidson’s assistant for the past fiveyears.

DEAR ABBYPauline Phillips and Jeanne Phillips

WHEN LOVE HURTSBY MICHAEL ROIZEN,

M.D., AND MEHMET OZ,M.D.

Cher, Kim Carnes andEmmy Lou Harris all record-ed the 1961 Roy Orbison song"Love Hurts," lamenting thepain of a broken heart. Butthat was years ago, and bynow they, and 50 millionother postmenopausalwomen in the U.S., may bedealing with the physicalrealities that accompany thegreat hormone shift -- includ-ing love that hurts.

Over 70 percent of women60-69 years old who have asteady partner report havingsex a few times a month ormore. But 25 percent to 40percent report painful inter-course. That's because a lackof estrogen causes vaginalatrophy, or thinning of the

tissue. Estrogen is needed tokeep membranes and skinsupple and strong. So here

are sometips toease thatdiscom-fort.

--Stayphysical-ly active.Regularexercisecanrelieve

menopausal symptoms (hotflashes), improve overallhealth (a big plus for feelingsexy) and keep pelvic mus-cles toned (that keepsorgasms strong).

--Eat foods that promotestrong, healthy skin.Pomegranate and sunflower

seeds, guava, red peppers,Brussels sprouts, olive oiland walnuts boost collagen.Adding 900 IU of algal-oilDHA omega-3 daily is a greatmove.

--Try safe estrogen-basedtherapies: Topical creams,vaginal tablets and the estro-gen ring deliver relief, andthe hormone isn't (much)absorbed into the blood-stream. Make sure to askyour doc about taking twobaby aspirins daily if you'retrying ANY estrogen therapy.

--Also, ask your doc aboutrisks and benefits of a newFood and DrugAdministration-approvedmedication: ospemifene, aSERM (selective estrogenreceptor modulator) thatrelieves painful intercourseby enhancing estrogen activi-ty in some tissues.

FRIEND'S CELEBRATIONMAKES WOMAN'S BIRTH-DAY UNHAPPY

DEAR ABBY: I was raisedthat a person's birthday is hisor her day to do whatever heor she wants, but my wishesare being ignored by a closefriend I'll call Wade.

For the last 10 years I haveignored my birthday andtried to avoid all celebrations.I'll take a vacation alone andhave a great time. My familyunderstands how I feel andgives me no grief.

I met Wade five years ago.He's a co-worker who hasbecome a good friend. Wadehas made it his goal in life tomake me celebrate my birth-day. I have tried being niceabout the presents and even asurprise birthday party oneyear, but I really prefer to beleft alone. I never told himmy birth date. He had accessto HR records and found outon his own.

He says I am "rude" for notletting him celebrate mybirthday. Other than thisissue, he's a great guy.Advice, Abby? -- NON-OBSERVANT IN FLORIDA

DEARNON-OBSER-VANT:Wademay be a"greatguy," butheappearsto beinsensi-

tive when it comes to respect-ing the feelings of others.Before your next birthday,"remind" him that you prefernot to celebrate or acknowl-edge it. A good friend shouldlisten and respect the otherperson's wishes instead oftrying to impose his or herwill, and don't be shy aboutsaying so.

DEAR ABBY: I am one offour sisters. Two of my sis-ters, their husbands and Iwant to plan a trip to Italy.We do not want to includeour fourth sister and her hus-band. None of us like him orcan forgive how he abusedher in the past. For her sake,we tolerate him at familygatherings and holidays, butnone of us want to be with

him for an extended period.We also don't think his healthwould allow him to do a lot ofthe things we want to do onthis vacation.

How do we plan this tripwhile excluding our sisterand her husband withouthurting her feelings or caus-ing a big family blowup?Should we just not mentionit? Or should we tell her she'sinvited but not her husband?Please advise. -- SIS IN APICKLE

DEAR SIS: Secrets like thishave a way of getting out. Itmight be a slip of the tongueby one of your sisters ortheir husbands, or someother relative who knowsabout the trip.

Surely your sister knowshow you all feel about herhusband, so it won't be ashock if you tell her she isinvited but he is not. Underthe circumstances I doubt ifshe will join you, and therewill probably be hurt feel-ings. But sneaking this pasther would be like trying tosmuggle dawn past a rooster,and I don't think it would belong before she finds out any-way.

DEAR ABBY: My husbandand I have been married fornine years. I worked until2010, and then quit to be astay-at-home mom to our twosmall children.

Because I no longer work, Iwatch what I spend, but myhusband never lets me forgetthat he is the wage earner.When I want to spend moneyhe always says, "What's in itfor me?" or, "What do I get?" Ifeel like this degrades me.Why does he do this to me? --STAY-AT-HOME MOM INGEORGIA

DEAR STAY-AT-HOMEMOM: Your husband may sayit because he feels stressed orresentful that he is the solewage earner now. The firsttime it happened you shouldhave responded that "what'sin it for him" is that his chil-dren have a full-time mother,which the majority of chil-dren today don't have, and"what he gets" out of it areoffspring who have a motherrather than a caregiver rais-ing them.

Hints from Heloise Heloise

Magazines on the MoveDear Heloise: Last time I

moved, I lost all of my MAGA-ZINE SUBSCRIPTIONS be-cause magazines do not getforwarded by the post office,and I forgot about calling cus-tomer service while busy withthe move.

I just moved again and didn'twant that to happen this time.Before throwing out my mostrecent issues, I clipped off theaddress labels, which containmy account number and sub-scription information, thentaped them to the inside coverof my address book.

After I moved, I went onlineand was able to easily changemy address with each maga-zine using my subscription in-formation. I lost only one issuefor each magazine, as it takesabout six weeks for the changeto go through. -- A Reader, viaemail

The U.S. Postal Service sendsmagazines and periodicalsBACK if they don't have achange-of-address form. Youcan do a change of address bygetting the kit at your post of-fice or filling one out online.

It also is possible to suspendyour mail and then have it re-

sumed when youget settled; thisway, you won't missa magazine. Andkeep in mind that itusually takes be-tween seven and 10

days to receive mail that hasbeen forwarded. -- Heloise

P.S.: Call the customer-ser-vice line listed in the magazineto alert the company aboutyour new address.

PACKAGE SHREDDINGSDear Heloise: If you send

packages and if you use ashredder, stuff some of theshredded paper into zipperedbags (you can use various sizes,whatever the need) and usethem in your packages. Ratherthan using regular popped pop-corn (Heloise here: A readersuggested using popcorn in zipbags, then the recipient couldeat the popcorn, too!), eat thepopcorn and go for the shred-ded paper. Works great! -- In-grid Capriotti, Arlington, Va.

'GRATE' PEELINGSDear Heloise: I grated the

peel of an orange to put in myhomemade orange-cranberrysauce. I had to go to the storefor another ingredient and leftthe grated orange peel on the

counter, uncovered. When I re-turned, I found that my entirecondo smelled like freshlyscented orange.

This is a lot less work thanboiling orange peel, etc., toscent your home. It's an easyway to get rid of bad odors orfreshen your home! Just gratesome orange peel and let it sitout in a bowl! -- Rusti Stover inHouston

FLU-SEASON CAUTIONDear Heloise: During the flu

season (which can last throughlate spring -- Heloise), waitingrooms in doctors' offices andhospitals have posted precau-tions to minimize furtherspread of diseases.

One precaution is to avoidreading magazines, newspa-pers, etc., that you may findthere. This will keep you frompicking up a virus that hasbeen left by a previous reader,and will eliminate you as asource of contamination. In-stead, bring your own readingmaterials. -- Perry Crabill, Win-chester, Va.

Bridge Phillip Alder

GO FOR THECHANCE THAT YOUHAVE

Aristotle said, "Allhuman actions have oneor more of these sevencauses: chance, nature,compulsions, habit, rea-son, passion, desire."

At the bridge table,you desire to make orbreak the contract,using reasoning and var-ious habits -- hopefullyall good. And sometimesyou have to go for anychance that you have.

In this deal, West hasto decide what to dowhen defending againstone no-trump. He leadshis fourth-highest dia-mond. South takes East'snine with his king andplays the spade queen.West ducks, but is inwith his ace at trickthree. What should Westdo now?

An aggressive Eastwould have made athree-club weak jumpovercall on the first

round. ThenSouth wouldprobably havemade a nega-tive double,giving North aheadache. The

winning action wouldhave been to pass, whichwould have netted 100 or300.

If East had balancedover one no-trump witha two-club bid, Southwould presumably havecontinued with twospades, which wouldhave probably endeddown one after the dia-mond-nine lead fromEast.

Who has the diamondjack?

It must be South -- donot be fooled by hisfalsecard at trick one.East was playing thirdhand high and the besthe could do was thenine. Similarly, Southhas the diamond ace,giving South 10 high-card points. So, if West

leads another diamond,South must take at leastnine tricks.

The only chance forthe defense is to run theclubs. West must shift tohis club king and con-tinue with his secondclub. Here, East andWest take one spade andsix clubs for down one.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — DougCollins is on his way out asPhiladelphia 76ers’ coach.

It remains to be seen if he’llstick with the organization insome other role.

A person familiar with the situ-ation tells The Associated Pressthe Collins and the Sixers are try-ing to resolve their relationshipafter the coach told them he wouldnot return for a fourth season.

The person spoke on conditionof anonymity Monday because theissue has not been settled. Theperson said both sides spent theday working toward an agreementthat would keep Collins in the or-ganization in some capacity orfree him from the club.

Two people with knowledge ofthe situation said Collins told theSixers on Sunday night he wouldnot return next season.

All three people who spoke tothe AP say management wantedCollins to return and he wasunder no pressure to step down.Collins is owed $4.5 million in thelast year of his contract.

Team president Rod Thorn wasalready set to step aside after thisseason, leaving open the possibil-ity Collins assumes some front of-fice control.

The Sixers are 33-47 and in ninthplace in the Eastern Conference ayear after they won 35 games anda round in the playoffs in lastyear’s lockout-shortened season.

The Sixers finish out the seasonMonday in Detroit and Wednes-day in Indiana.

Collins not did address his fu-ture with the team on Sunday.

Collins, a four-time All-Starwith the Sixers, returned to thefranchise in 2010 and led them tothe playoffs in each of his first twoseasons.

After falling one win shy of ad-vancing to the Eastern Confer-ence finals last season, the Sixersshook up the roster and made thebold move to acquire All-Star cen-ter Andrew Bynum from the LosAngeles Lakers.

Collins would have likely re-turned had Bynum panned outand kept the Sixers in contention

with numbers close to his careerhighs 18.7 points and 11.8 re-bounds set last season with theLakers.

Instead of helping the Sixers getready for a playoff run, Bynumnever played for them because ofbone bruises in both knees.

He had season-ending arthro-scopic surgery on both knees lastmonth. Bynum earned $16.5 mil-lion this season and is set to be-come an unrestricted free agent.

Bynum’s agent, David Lee, re-fused on Monday to discuss possi-ble contract terms for next season.But he said Bynum would be“ready to go” for training camp.

Lee said Collins’ leaving ascoach did not change the way

Bynum viewed the Sixers and theAll-Star center would be open to areturn, if the franchise is inter-ested. Bynum is set to shed hiscrutches on Friday and begin thenext phase of his rehabilitation.

Lee said there are no plans forBynum to return to Germany forthe Orthokine blood-spinningtreatment in his knees that otherprofessional athletes have sought.

He understood why Sixers fanswere upset with Bynum after sev-eral target dates for a return cameand went.

“The experience has been a posi-tive one, except for the outcome,”Lee said by phone. “It’s regret-table, but this unfortunately hap-pens in professional sports.”

Collins resigns as 76ers head coach after team misses playoffs

FROM B2

As I reached the end of the bleachers,I saw her run past.

“Go, Laura!” I shouted, and wove myway back toward the finish line, flashingmy media pass to get onto the course.

I caught up with her and walked withher while she picked up a bottle ofwater. We had barely crossed DartmouthStreet, less than a block from the finish,when we were shaken by the first explo-sion.

I had been through bomb scaresbefore; I remember that my venue wasevacuated during the Salt Lake CityOlympics, five months after Sept. 11,2001, because someone left a backpackbehind. There’s a twinge of fear, but it’smore of an inconvenience for a reporteron deadline because they’ve all beenfalse alarms until now.

Nothing was like hearing rumors thatanother bomb had been found “in anearby hotel” while I was holed up in anearby hotel.

I paced around the lobby looking forsomeone in authority to talk to andbumped into Greg Meyer, the 1983 cham-pion and the last American man to win.He said he ran the race with his sonsand had finished a few minutes beforethe blasts.

People outside Boston, people whoaren’t runners, are likely to think of theBoston Marathon as a sporting event,but it is really at least four differentevents at once.

There is the elite athlete race, the oneshown on television that usually endswith a Kenyan handed a silver trophyand crowned by an olive wreath. Thereare the recreational runners who trainfor years to make the qualifying time,then spend another year preparing forthe hilly trip from Hopkinton toBoston’s Back Bay. There are the run-ners who get into the race by promisingto raise money for charity — a traditionthat has collected more than $128 mil-lion over the past 25 years.

And then there is the 26.2-mile paradein which hundreds of thousands line

the course on Patriots Day, when schoolsand many businesses are closed for theday.

“This is an event that brings peopletogether. Not this kind of stuff,” Meyersaid. “I don’t get it.”

Maybe it’s the day off from work, ormaybe it’s the fact that everyone knowssomeone who is running, but the peopleof Boston — not necessarily the sportsfans, but the people who live here —take pride in the marathon. First run in1897, when about 15 local runners drewa line in the dirt at Metcalf ’s Mill out inAshland, it is the longest-running annu-al race at the distance and, most agree,the world’s most prestigious.

The field has grown to include womenand wheelchairs and thousands of run-ners who struggle to qualify for it — justonce.

In 2011, registration closed in a recordeight hours. The fastest before that hadbeen 65 days.

I don’t know what will happen nextyear. I don’t know if runners will avoidthe race, uncomfortable to be celebrat-ing at the site of so many injuries. Idon’t know if fans will stay away out offear.

As I finished my stories, TV reportedthat an 8-year-old child was one of thosekilled. I thought of the people fromNewtown, Conn., running in memory ofthe 26 killed there in December.Organizers scheduled a 26-secondsilence at the start and dedicated the26th mile to the victims at Sandy HookElementary School.

I got up to walk it off. In the bathroom,a Boston police officer was at the mir-ror, wiping the tears from his reddenedeyes. I patted him on the back but saidnothing.

I got back to my laptop and kept work-ing.

At 8 p.m., someone came over andclicked off the race clock.

The 2013 Boston Marathon was over.And something else — I’m not surewhat, but something that certainlyseems bigger than sports — was aboutto begin.

MANNING: Receiving core bolstered by WelkerFROM B2

He knows it won’t be easy to replicatewhat Brady and Welker built over sixyears in a matter of months.

“Every repetition with him will beimportant,” Manning said. “Certainly, Ithink he provides some unique things.He’s got unbelievable quickness, he’sexcellent with the ball in his hands onthose screen passes. You’ve seen himgetting upfield quickly and I’ve alwaysfelt he’s had a nose for the end zone.”

Manning said he can tell Broncos VicePresident John Elway is trying to createan “uncomfortable atmosphere” for ateam that went 13-3 last year but wasdumped out of the playoffs by Baltimorein the divisional round.

“Last year was good but it wasn’tgreat. And we’re looking for a great sea-son,” Manning said, nearly echoing thewords of both Elway and Broncos ownerPat Bowlen in the aftermath of theBaltimore loss.

In addition to Welker, Elway signedguard Louis Vasquez to shore up theoffensive line. He also went after corner-back Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie,defensive lineman Terrance Knightonand linebacker Stewart Bradley. Allpieces of a puzzle, with designs on help-ing this team — with an aging-but-tal-ented core — take the final step.

“You lose at the end of the season, you

want to find ways to get better, period,whatever it takes,” said cornerbackChamp Bailey, heading into his 15th sea-son.

Denver lost defensive lineman ElvisDumervil in a bizarre deadline-fueledfax foul-up. Meanwhile, Welker’s addi-tion means it’s less likely that one ofManning’s favorite teammates, BrandonStokley, will return, though the quarter-back wasn’t completely giving up onthat.

“I hope it’s not necessarily a closed-door discussion,” Manning said.

Regardless, Manning’s receiving corpsfigures to be one of the most dangerousin the league. Eric Decker andDemaryius Thomas each had breakoutyears last season, Thomas with 1,434yards and Decker with 1,064. Both areheading into their fourth year as pros.Both figure to benefit from havingWelker there to occupy defenses.Manning needs to take advantage of thesituation sooner rather than later — areality he’s very much in touch with ashe enters his 16th NFL season.

“I’ll be long out of eligibility by thetime these guys really hit the peak oftheir careers because they’re bothyoung players,” Manning said. “But I’vereally enjoyed working with them andseeing them develop, and both of themgot better last year. And both can beeven better this year, I believe.”

DENVER (AP) — Three weeks ago,Denver Nuggets coach George Karl mar-veled at his team’s depth, suggesting,“we can even sustain injuries and beOK.”

The Nuggets have been testing thattheory ever since. First, point guard TyLawson went down with a painful rightheel injury. Then, forward DaniloGallinari was lost for the season with atorn left ACL, and on Sunday toprebounder Kenneth Faried sprained hisleft ankle and needed his teammates’help leaving the court. X-rays were neg-ative and an MRI on Monday confirmedthere were no fractures but a sprain ofthe “anterior talofibular” ligament.Faried didn’t make the Nuggets’ trip toMilwaukee and he won’t play in the’ reg-ular season finale against Phoenix onWednesday, either. He’ll be listed as dayto day when the first round of the play-offs begins next weekend.

This counts as very good news for thesuddenly injury-prone Nuggets, whowere remarkably healthy until theirrecent run of bad luck. AlthoughLawson returned to action Friday aftermissing eight games, Gallinari is donefor the year. Faried, who is averaging11.5 points and a team-best 9.2 reboundsand has 31 double-doubles, initiallyfeared he had a more serious injury, too.

He was hurt Sunday when he steppedon the foot of Portland Trail Blazersrookie Will Barton while driving for alayup. Karl said he usually gauges theseriousness of an injury by looking atthe player’s face, but Faried covered hisface while writing in pain on the hard-wood and then put a towel over his headwhen he was helped from the court andthen wheeled to the locker room for X-rays. Faried said he had never felt suchpain and initially feared a more seriousinjury but vowed to play in the playoffs.
