Troy tennisshakes things up

ROME (AP) — Pope Francisreached out in friendship to “somany Muslim brothers andsisters” during a Good Fridayprocession dedicated to thesuffering of Christians fromterrorism, war and religiousfanaticism in the Middle East.The new pontiff, who has

rankled traditionalists byrejecting many trappings of his

office, mostly stuck to the tra-ditional script during thenighttime Way of the Crossprocession at Rome’sColosseum, one of the mostdramatic rituals of Holy Week.With torches lighting the

way, the faithful carried a crossto different stations, wheremeditations and prayers wereread out recalling the final

hours of Jesus’ life and his cru-cifixion.This year, the prayers were

composed by young Lebanese,and many recalled the plight ofminority Christians in theregion, where wars have forcedthousands to flee their home-lands. The meditations calledfor an end to “violent funda-mentalism,” terrorism and the“wars and violence which inour days devastate variouscountries in the Middle East.”Francis, who became pope

“I ordered mine online lastyear and got it the day beforeprom last year, but it came toolate, so I actually borrowed Mrs.Ohio’s dress,” Mowery said,explaining that the mother of herdate last year, Justin Lewis, wasa former beauty pageant winner.Coming Sunday, in theMiami Valley Sunday News.

uality sandwiches madewith locally producedingredients is the focus ofthe recently opened MojosBar & Grille on East Main

Street, which owner Doug Boyledubbed an upscale restaurant/tavern“with music that will never be soloud that you can’t have a conversa-tion.”Mojos opened March 11, following

two months of renovation to thebuilding at 109 E. Main St. that for-merly housed O’Brien’s Pub. It’s nocoincidence that the bar openedshortly before St. Patrick’s Day.“We wanted it to be open by then,

and the reason is a lot of people comeout for St. Patrick’s Day who don’tcome out all the time.We thought it’dbe good exposure,” Boyle said.Managing the restaurant is oper-

ating partner Jason Tucholski.

Rather than have an extensivemenu, Boyle said he wanted to focuson offering a few select unique items,all made fresh.“The entire menu is based on buy-

ing local,” he said. “It’s all about sup-porting the local community —they’re not only our neighbors, butalso our customers.”Meats and breads are all pro-

duced locally, and produce is grownand purchased locally whenever inseason. Olive oil for the dressing —such as that on the StrawberryFields salad — is purchased from theOlive Oasis downtown.Sandwiches include Boyle’s per-

sonal favorite, the Monte Cristo —ham, Gruyere cheese and whitebread with black raspberry preserves— along with pastrami on rye, thechicken grill and Italian beef sand-wich. Gourmet appetizers, salads andsides also are part of the mix.

“We’ll never have a big, multi-page menu,” Boyle said. “It’sabsolutely about quality and thepeople.”The bar carries more than 50

types of beer, with three beers on tap,as well as a full selection of wine andliquor. Boyle said Mojos has provenespecially popular for dinner asopposed to strictly drinks. Instead ofcompeting with local businesses, hehopes Mojos will provide yet anotherdining destination for Troy residents.“We have some great downtown

restaurants like LaPiazza and TheCaroline, and we supplement them,”Boyle said.Hours are 4 p.m. to midnight

Monday through Wednesday, 4 p.m.to 1 a.m. Thursday, 4 p.m. to 2:30a.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to mid-night Sunday. Mojos will be closedSunday for Easter.For a full menu and more informa-

tion, visit TroyMojos.com or theFacebook page atwww.facebook.com/TroyMojos.

INSIDE

WASHINGTON (AP) —Members of Congress aretraveling less and worryingmore about meeting officesalaries. Their aides arecontending with long linesto get inside their officesand fewer prospects of araise. Such are the indigni-ties thrust upon the menand women who broughtthe country $85 billion ingovernment spending cutsthis month.There probably won’t be

much sympathy for a sena-tor or congressman making$174,000 a year who is inno danger of being fur-loughed or laid off, at leastuntil the next election.Still, there has been aneffort, especially in theRepublican-led House, toshow that no one should beexempt from sacrifice.“As those who are

charged with the care oftaxpayers’ dollars, we needto lead by example,” Rep.Candice Miller, R-Mich.,who chairs the HouseAdministration Com-mittee, said last week inpromoting a bill to slashthe budgets of House com-mittees by 11 percent.Earlier in March after

Congress and the WhiteHouse failed to come upwith an alternative toacross-the-board cuts inmost federal programs, theHouse imposed an 8.2 per-cent reduction in lawmak-ers’ personal office budgets.That came on top of 11 per-cent cuts to members’office budgets during 2011-2012.“We’ve drastically

reduced travel both formyself and my staff,” saidRepublican Rep. JohnCampbell, who must crossthe country to visit hissouthern California dis-trict. He said he tends tostay in Washington on two-day weekends rather than

return home. “I’m more pro-ductive here when I’m notrushing to get home,” headded.Campbell said other “lit-

tle things” he is doing toeconomize include reducingthe office phone bill, cuttingoff magazine and newspapersubscriptions, and usingemail rather than letters tocommunicate with voters.Rep. Luke Messer, a

freshman Republican fromIndiana, said he hired fewerpeople when he came toWashington because “weessentially began the termknowing there was a highpossibility of a sequester”Washington-speak for theautomatic spending cuts.So far, congressional

staffers appear to haveescaped the furloughs thatare likely to send thousandsof public servants homewithout pay for severalworkdays over the next sixmonths and disrupt somegovernment services. “I hopeto avoid that,” said RepJared Polis, D-Colo., “but wewill take any steps to ensurewe don’t exceed our budget.”Under House rules, a law-maker must pay for excessspending out of his or herown pocket.The fiscal pressures are

less strong in the Senate,where senators have staff

budgets about double theamount of the $1.3 millionaverage in the House andwhere the office cuts orderedbecause of the sequesterwere limited to 5 percent.While staffers still have

their jobs, they may have aharder time getting to them.Security officials have cutcosts by closing 10 entrancesand several side streetsaround the Capitol complex,creating long lines to getthrough screening stations.People “have started toadjust to those changes atthe entrances,” although it isstill a challenge on busydays, said U.S. SenateSergeant at Arms TerranceGainer.Gainer, who oversees

nearly 1,000 security andadministrative employees,said he hopes to abide by the5 percent sequester cutwithout layoffs by enlisting70 or 80 people for a volun-tary retirement program.

just over two weeks ago,chose, however, to stressChristians’ positive rela-tions with Muslims in theregion in his brief com-ments at the end of the cer-emony.Standing on a platform

overlooking the processionroute, Francis recalledBenedict XVI’s 2012 visitto Lebanon when “we sawthe beauty and the strongbond of communion join-ing Christians together inthat land and the friend-ship of our Muslim broth-ers and sisters and somany others.”“That occasion was a

sign to the Middle Eastand to the whole world, asign of hope,” he said.Friday’s outreach fol-

lowed Francis’ eyebrow-raising gesture a day earli-er, when he washed andkissed the feet of twowomen, one a Muslim, inthe Holy Thursday ritualthat commemorates Jesus’washing of his apostles’feet during the LastSupper before his crucifix-ion.Breaking with tradi-

tion, Francis performedthe ritual on 12 inmates ata juvenile detention cen-ter, rather than in Rome’sgrand St. John Lateran

basilica, where in the past,12 priests have been cho-sen to represent Jesus’ dis-ciples.Before he became pope,

the former Cardinal JorgeMario Bergoglio long culti-vated warm relations withMuslim leaders in hisnative Argentina. In one ofhis first speeches as pope,he called for the churchand the West in general to“intensify” relations withthe Muslim world.The Vatican’s relations

with Islam hit severalbumps during BenedictXVI’s papacy, when he out-raged Muslims with a2006 speech quoting aByzantine emperor as say-ing some of ProphetMuhammad’s teachingswere “evil and inhuman.”And in 2011, the pre-emi-nent institute of Islamiclearning in the SunniMuslim world, Cairo’s Al-Azhar institute, froze dia-logue with the Vatican toprotest Benedict’s call forgreater protection ofChristians in Egypt.However, Francis’ past

outreach to the Muslimcommunity in Argentinaseems to have changedthat. Al-Azhar’s chiefimam, Sheik Ahmed el-Tayyib, sent a message ofcongratulations to Francison his election and said he

hoped for cooperation.The Vatican’s efforts to

reconcile with the Islamicworld have not been wel-comed by all. Italy’s mostfamous Muslim convert toCatholicism, Magdi Allam,announced last week hewas leaving the churchbecause of its “soft” stanceon Islam. Allam was bap-tized by Benedict XVI in2008 during the high-pro-file Easter Vigil servicewhen the pope traditional-ly baptizes a handful ofadults. There has been noVatican comment on hisabout-face.Thousands of people

packed the Colosseum andsurrounding areas for thenighttime procession,holding candles wrappedin paper globes as Francissat in silent prayer as agiant torch-lit crucifixtwinkled nearby. Some inthe crowd had Lebaneseflags around their shoul-ders in an indication of thespecial role Lebanesefaithful played in thisyear’s procession.Lebanon has the

largest percentage ofChristians in the MiddleEast nearly 40 percent ofthe country’s 4 millionpeople, with MaroniteCatholics the largest sect.As civil war has raged inneighboring Syria,

Lebanon’s Christian com-munity has been dividedbetween supporters andopponents of SyrianPresident Bashar Assad.Overall, Christians in

the Middle East have beenuneasy as the Arab Springhas led to the strengthen-ing of Islamist groups inmost countries that haveexperienced uprisings.Thousands of Christianshave fled the region a phe-nomenon that the Vaticanhas lamented, givenChristianity’s roots in theHoly Land.“How sad it is to see

this blessed land suffer inits children, who relent-lessly tear one another topieces and die!” said one ofthe Good Friday medita-tions. “It seems that noth-ing can overcome evil, ter-rorism, murder andhatred.”Francis picked up on

that message, sayingChrist’s death on the crossis “the answer whichChristians offer in the faceof evil, the evil that contin-ues to work in us andaround us.”“Christians must

respond to evil with good,taking the cross uponthemselves as Jesus did,”he said.At the end of the cere-

mony, a male choir sang a

haunting Arabic hymn, areflection of the Easternrite influence that infusedthe ceremony.On Saturday, Francis

presides over the solemnEaster Vigil ceremony inSt. Peter’s Basilica and onSunday, he celebratesEaster Mass and deliversan important speech.Usually the pope alsoissues Easter greetings indozens of languages.In his two weeks as

pope, Francis’ discomfortwith speaking in any lan-guage other than Italianhas become apparent. TheVatican spokesman, theRev. Federico Lombardi,said Friday “we’ll have tosee” what Francis doeswith the multilingualgreetings.The Good Friday pro-

cession was conductedentirely in Italian, where-as in years past the coreelements recounting whathappens at each stationwould be recited in a vari-ety of languages.

Pope

JERUSALEM (AP) —Hundreds of Christiansstreamed through the cob-blestone alleyways ofJerusalem’s Old City onFriday, hoisting woodencrosses and chantingprayers to mark the crucifix-ion of Jesus.Throngs of pilgrims

walked a traditional GoodFriday procession thatretraces Jesus’ steps alongthe Via Dolorosa, Latin forthe “Way of Suffering.” Theyfollowed his 14 stations, say-ing a prayer at each andending at the ancient HolySepulcher church.Along the route,

Franciscan friars in brownrobes chanted prayers in

Latin and explained thedifferent stations to crowdsthrough a megaphone.Leonard Mary, a priestfrom Irondale, Alabama,was dressed as Jesus wear-ing a crown of thorns. Hewas flanked by men posingas Roman soldiers and hadfake blood dripping downhis chest as he lugged agiant cross down thestreet.“The most perfect love

that was ever seen in theworld was when Jesus diedfor us.He showed us the per-fection of love,” the priestsaid.Good Friday events

began with a morning serv-ice at the cavernous Holy

Sepulcher, which was builton the place where traditionholds that Jesus was cruci-fied, briefly entombed andresurrected. Clergy enteredthrough the church’s largewooden doors as worship-pers prayed in the churchcourtyard.Later Friday, a service

was due in Bethlehem’sChurch of the Nativity, builtatop the traditional site ofJesus’ birth. Christiansbelieve Jesus was crucifiedon Good Friday and resur-rected on Easter Sunday.Roman Catholic and

Protestant congregationsthat observe the new,Gregorian calendar, aremarking holy week.

Sacramento Bee onVatican recognizing rise of

the Americas:By selecting Jorge Mario

Bergoglio as the next pope ofthe Roman Catholic Church,cardinals have sent an impor-tant signal to the Americas —and particularly to LatinAmerica, where 39 percent ofall Catholics worldwide live.Bergoglio, who will be called

Pope Francis, was previouslythe archbishop of Buenos Aires.He is the first pope to beselected from anywhere in theAmericas, and the first Jesuittapped to be papal leader.While he may be more conser-vative than many American

Catholics and Jesuits wouldprefer, it is significant that theVatican has recognized the riseof Latin America, which for toolong been overlooked by thisand many other internationalinstitutions.According to 2011 data from

the Pew Forum, more than 425million Catholics live in LatinAmerica, with the largest pop-ulations in Brazil, Mexico andArgentina.The son of Italian immi-

grants, Bergoglio is said to leadan austere life.In Argentina, he worked to

restore the church’s reputationafter a murderous militaryjunta in the 1970s was allowed

to “disappear” tens of thou-sands of leftists and peoplesuspected of being opponents.Yet it remains to be seen if

the 76-year-old pope, the 266thpontiff, will be any more com-mitted or effective than hispredecessor in slimming downthe Curia and moving thechurch into a modern age.Yet both of the hemispheres

are rapidly changing and, onmany issues, the church isdecades behind.Will Francis work to change

that?The answer, at this point,

will await moments of claritythat have been absent duringthe closed-door conclave.

Social media has inspired many individuals’ lives. ThroughMySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram, our culture andsociety have become overly obsessed with stalking and searching intoone another’s lives to find anything others may post online for theentire world to see.Willingly, they may reply or choose to only “follow” or “like.” Religion

and irreligion has affected these social media sites very drastically.Within seconds, any user can willingly post a blog, create a page ortweet for all one’s followers to see — lest the page be private or protect-ed.There is a multitude of different sites working with religion in one

aspect or another. On Facebook, more than 300,000 individuals “like”the page Christianity. Fortunately, the numbers are increasing.Through a multitude of different pages, individuals also can “like”

an agnostic or atheist page. Numbers show more than 200,000 individ-uals “share” or “like” these different viewpoints. These numbers areonly increasing as well. Statistics and studies have shown that over themiddle of the century, faith-based believers will be outnumbered bynon-believers.With Twitter, any user can “follow” one person or a larger point of

view, such as different religious views. Posts can be “retweeted” orfavorited with a click of a mouse.Examples like @TheTweetOfGod or @ChristianityHub are only two

examples where the user may post any religious idea, whether it bejoking or more serious and factual. Other more interesting exampleslike @Agnosticism, @AtheismNews, and @WeAreAtheism contain differ-ent viewpoints of these two irreligious views, where users are welcometo bash Christianity, prove certain specific points and rant to the WorldWide Web if they so choose.Using social media for religious or irreligious viewpoints can be very

positive. Pastors, preachers or priests are able to create pages, creategroups and, best of all, advertise the church body they represent. Socialmedia can be used for Christian and other faith-based believers aroundthe world to confess sins, weep and gnash teeth together with friendsor followers, create awesome prayer chains for loved ones and even goto the extreme of gaining forgiveness using any available online mes-saging service with the help of an online Holy Bible.With the busyness of individuals’ every day lives, it can be excruci-

ating to spend an hour or so in church. Lenora Rand, from theChristian Century Foundation, put it quite simply when she stated,“We live in a world in which it takes a lot of commitment to carve outan hour or so on Sunday morning to meet with others for worship.”Non-faith based believers can also use social media sites to theiradvantages in positive ways.Social media also is very negatively influenced with religious and

irreligious views. Although a relationship with God is more of a person-al choice, social media can create religion to be less personal with Godor less personal with any form of worship. With social media, individu-als are able to confess their love for religion or deny that there is sucha God for all Internet viewers to see. Also, with social media sites, reli-gious and irreligious individuals can fall into certain traps that couldcause serious harm in their personal lives, from a long-run perspective.Using social media in our everyday lives can be helpful, but also

hurtful. Although we cannot live without technology, we should keepour faith-based beliefs and our own opinions to ourselves personally,whatever the cost.

During two days of debate overgay marriage, the Supreme Courtconsidered technical matters ofstanding, the nature of marriageand constitutional rights, thesocial science of gay parenting andmuch else.The response of top liberal com-

mentators was, Please, don't boreus with the details. Just get onwith it.What matters is that the cause

of gay marriage is righteous —and, oh yeah, gaining in the polls.For the left, the nine justices arebit actors in a real-life episode of"The West Wing," where truth, jus-tice and progressivism always pre-vail. The Constitution is an inci-dental, a prop.Maureen Dowd, as usual, per-

fectly reflected the liberal id."Their questions," she wrote scorn-fully of the justices, "reflected aunanimous craven impulse: Howdo we get out of this?" "Gettingout of it" is another way to put"leaving the question to the elect-ed branches of government."Dowd complained that the jus-

tices acted like "fuddy-duddies."Yes, if only our robed masterswere cooler. Surely, if they hadAnna Wintour in for a workinglunch at the court's chambers, allthis unpleasantness could beworked out quickly. Dowd scorned

the court proceedings for theirlack of emotion. How bitterly dis-appointing it must be to her thateven Sonia Sotomayor, selected bythe president in part for her"empathy," asked questions relat-ing to the law.In his dispatch,Washington

Post columnist Dana Milbankstruck a similar tone. He wrote,disapprovingly, "The question iswhether the court forces gay-mar-riage activists to win the rightstate-by-state." If that is really thequestion, why should it even be aquestion? Since when is it animposition to advance your causedemocratically, especially whenyou are absolutely certain you aregoing to win?Supporters of gay marriage

always cite the shifting polls, as ifthey are relevant to a deliberationover whether gay marriage is

mandated by the Constitution.The Republican supporters of gaymarriage are no better than theliberals. On MSNBC's "MorningJoe," former McCain campaignmanager Steve Schmidt, a signato-ry on a Republican pro-gay mar-riage brief, confidently predictedthat a gay-marriage referendumwould pass in California in a pres-idential election year. Can't wewait to have the court impose gaymarriage until we're certain a ref-erendum would pass in an off-yearelection, too?His former McCain campaign

colleague and fellow signatoryNicolle Wallace appeared on "FoxNews Sunday." "More than 60 per-cent of all Americans, everyone,supports marriage equality," shesaid. Wallace was apparentlyreferring to an ABC News/Washington Post poll that showed58 percent support for gay mar-riage, which technically is notmore, but less than 60 percent.This happens to be the best

result in any of the recent polls forgay marriage. Her point wouldhave been considerably attenuatedif she had said, "The most recentPew poll has 49-44 percent favorgay marriage and the Fox poll 49-46 percent support, slim plurali-ties that mean ... the court ... must... act ... now."

The most telling moment in theargument over Proposition 8 pro-hibiting the official recognition ofgay marriage in California camewhen Justice Antonin Scalia askedpro-gay-marriage lawyer TedOlson when it became unconstitu-tional not to recognize gay mar-riage. Olson couldn't answer with-out appearing ridiculous, either bysaying our marriage laws havebeen unconstitutional since thepassage of the 14th Amendment in1868 or by picking some arbitrarycontemporary date.Olson responded that it became

unconstitutional not to officiallyrecognize gay marriages as part of"an evolutionary cycle." As a mat-ter of constitutional law, thisanswer is completely inadequate.Constitutional rights don't evolvewith public opinion.As a reply to the political ques-

tion of when gay marriage beganto get traction, it is apt. In thiscontext, you can indeed just lookat the polls.But they have nothing to do

with the Supreme Court andeverything to do with the politicalprocess, even if its supporterswould prefer not to be bothered.

DAYTON (AP) —Officials say a U.S. AirForce reserve wing thatflies troops around theglobe will start shuttingdown on Fridays whencivilian furloughs begin atOhio’s largest militarybase.That’s the word at

Wright-Patterson Air Force

Base, where around 13,000civilian employees will besubject to furloughsbecause of defense budgetcuts.The Air Force Reserve

445th Airlift Wing relies onhundreds of civilian airreserve technicians, whoserve double duty asreserve military personnel.

CINCINNATI (AP) —Nobody thinks methadoneis good for a baby, but it’sbetter than heroin.That’s how Keean

Lankford and RonaldStokes started life: depend-ent on the opiate theirmothers took to fight theiraddiction to heroin andprescription painkillers.Their mothers are in

Good Samaritan Hospital’sHOPE program HelpingOpiate-addicted Pregnantwomen Evolve which hos-pital officials started fiveyears ago as a way to helpdrug-dependent mothersget clean.“These babies pull at

your heartstrings,” said Dr.Kathy Wedig, the hospital’sdirector of neonatal follow-up. “You care for them andyou think, ‘This is notright.’”In the Faculty Medical

Center at Good SamaritanHospital, Priscilla Conleyand Tosha Hill give hope todrug-addicted mothers-to-be who want a better lifefor their babies.Doctors do check-ups,

and then Conley and Hilldirect women to drug treat-ment programs and con-nect the mothers to servic-es such as counseling,housing and financial sup-port.It works because the

help comes in a nonjudg-mental setting, said Conley,substance abuse coordina-tor for Good SamaritanHospital’s perinatal pro-grams.“Heroin is definitely an

epidemic, and it’s going totake the whole communityto improve the lives ofthese women,” said Hill,HOPE’s perinatal socialworker. “Working togetherto help moms become soberwill enhance the lives of

our young children.“We went from just

knowing we had womenwho were using drugs tobeing able to help them,”she added.In fiscal 2008, HOPE

was involved in 44 deliver-ies. Last fiscal year thatjumped to 94 deliveries.The program is on pace tohelp more than 100 womenthis year.Until now, outcomes

weren’t tracked, but aMarch of Dimes grantallowed the program tohire a community healthworker in February whowill follow up with thewomen for a year afterdelivery.Pregnant women in the

program are directed tomethadone treatment cen-ters to kill the craving formore dangerous drugs suchas heroin and prescriptionpainkillers,Wedig said. Thebabies, though, are bornmethadone dependent.Some babies show rela-

tively few symptoms anddon’t need treatment relat-

ed to methadone, but oth-ers exhibit signs of addic-tion.In those cases, the

babies can spend three tofour weeks in the inten-sive-care nursery whilethey’re weaned offmethadone with smallerand smaller doses of thedrug.“Methadone attaches to

the same receptors (asheroin or opioidpainkillers), but for alonger period of time, so itstops the craving for heroinand prevents withdrawaleffects,” Wedig said. “Butit’s still a drug with lots ofbad side effects.”Patients don’t get the

same euphoria from it, sothey can maintain a nor-mal routine.The babies also get what

Wedig calls “environmentaltreatment” cuddling, quietsurroundings and low lightto help ease withdrawal.For some moms, the

infant is a motivator totake back control of theirlives, Wedig said. Others

AREA RELIGION BRIEFS

ALPINE, Utah (AP) —Nick Emery a three-timeUtah state champion andtwo-time state high schoolplayer of the year was court-ed by college basketballsuper-powersUCLA,Kansasand North Carolina.

But the 6-foot-2-inchpoint guard spurned themall, and won’t be playing bas-ketball anytime soon. Emeryis just weeks away fromstarting a two-year Mormonmission to Germany.

The Brigham YoungUniversity-bound Emery isnot the first elite Mormonathlete to put his career onhold for a mission, but he isamong the very first whowill leave right after highschool at 18 under new rulesannounced last fall by TheChurch of Jesus Christ ofLatter-day Saints.

By lowering the mini-mum missionary age formen to 18, from 19, Emeryand other Mormon collegeathletes can navigatearound the cumbersomepath generations of Mormonathletes who came beforethem had to maneuver. Theage for women was droppedto 19, from 21.

Until now, Mormon ath-letes had to play or redshirtfor one year after high schooluntil they turned 19. After atwo-year hiatus, they comeback to complete theircareers. By being able to goon a mission first, Emerysaid he will start his BYUcareer more mature andwith better leadership skills.

“Two years is a long timeto mature and really figureout who I am,” said the 18-year-old Emery. “This is a big

bonus. You can go straightout and get those two yearsdone and then you have fourstraight years in college.”

The change in the mini-mum age, the first since1960, already has sent rip-ples across Mormon culture,affecting college enroll-ments, and likely howyoung people date, marryand start families. Theeffects are most evident inUtah, where 1.9 millionMormons live and the homeof the church’s worldwideheadquarters.

It completely alters thelandscape for Mormon col-lege athletes, giving themanother option as they con-sider their own physical andmental maturity and try tooptimize playing time.

Five months after thesurprise announcement

from LDS officials, BYUbasketball coach Dave Rosesaid it appears that mostbasketball players will gostraight on a mission out ofhigh school. The change willlead to some extra jugglingof the roster at BYU in thecoming years, but shouldreap long-term benefits forthe Mormon-owned univer-sity in Provo, Utah.

“The continuity of themcoming in and being here forfour or five consecutiveyears will hopefully help usmanage our roster a lot bet-ter,” said Rose, BYU headcoach since 2005.

Though the church low-ered the minimum age, LDSchurch leaders emphasizedthat each person shouldcarefully assess his or hersituation. That’s what BYU-bound Eric Mika did before

he ultimately opted to stickto his original plan and playa year before going on mis-sion at 19.

Rose said Mika made agood decision. Not only willhe have a chance to playright away with severalBYU big men graduating,but he will benefit fromanother year of competitionafter sitting out his juniorseason due to having trans-ferred high schools.

For Emery, though, goingearly was an easy decisionand one that Rose said willbenefit him.

BYU already has severaltalented guards on nextyear’s team, meaning play-ing time would have beendifficult. After theannouncement, Emeryquickly set into motion aplan to graduate early. He’ll

enter the MissionaryTraining Center on May 1,and head off to serve inFrankfurt, Germany, aboutsix weeks later. That putshim back home in May of2015 six months before thestart of basketball season.

Under the old rules, theonly athletes able to go on amission straight out of highschool were those who werealready 19, meaning theyalmost always had Augustor September birthdays.That brought them backfrom their missions in thefall and made it difficult toget in basketball shape forthe next season.

Rose predicts most play-ers will follow Emery’s leadand go in the spring, whichshould make the transitionback into college basketballmuch smoother.

BYU-bound Emery off on mission trip at 18

Dear Heloise: I would liketo add a comment to the sug-gestion on washing knick-knacks in the dishwasher thatI read in The Washington Post.Please be careful that there isno gold or silver trim on themand that they can withstandthe heat in the dishwasher.There are only two of us in

our household, and we also fre-quently run out of dishes beforewe can fill up the dishwasher.Our best set of dishes has sil-ver on the edges and cannot bewashed in the dishwasher.(Heloise here: Older and deli-cate items should be hand-washed, but modern piecesusually can be put in the dish-

washer safely.)I also have learned that

many pots and pans cannot beplaced in the dishwasher (ifthey have wooden knobs orhandles — Heloise) because theheat will crack or splinter themand the handles. So, we some-times run the appliance at lessthan full. Or we take back out

the few dishes that we needand rewash them by hand.—Pauline Lee, Bowie, Md.Thanks for sharing your

hints. Many times it’s the high-heat water temperature or hotdrying cycle that can causedamage. When the subject ofwashing knickknacks in thedishwasher comes up, wechuckle in Heloise Central. Oneof my assistants put carveddoves in the dishwasher (shewas newly married), and whenshe opened the dishwasher,they were gone! They had dis-solved with the hot water. So,always think before puttingitems (especially wooden orother specialty pieces) in the

dishwasher.— HeloisePET PALDear Readers: Harold and

Eula McChristian of Laneville,Texas, sent a photo of theiradorable miniature Yorkshireterrier, Pebbles, sitting in acocoa cup. She sure is a supercutie! To see her, visitwww.Heloise.com and click on“Pets.”Why not take a minute and

send or e-mail a photo of yourspecial pet that you would liketo share? You may be surprisedto find your pet as the HeloisePet of the Week! Send thephoto to: Heloise/Pet Photo,P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio,TX 78279-5000.— Heloise

His habitsdon't hurt me personally, but Ican't help finding them distaste-ful and a turn-off. And that's thelast thing I want to feel aboutsomeone I'm in love with.I also believe in letting people

be who they are. So am I evenwithin my rights asking him tochange these habits "or else"? Oram I being too demanding, con-sidering his otherwise excellentqualities? I'm afraid that the wayI feel about these quirks willeventually overshadow the beau-tiful, positive feelings I have forhim. That is depressing to con-template. — Hoping for Change

Dear Hoping: These "quirks"do affect you if you live togetheror share finances. Secondhandsmoke can be deadly for you, andsomeone who plays online pokermight have a gambling problem.You cannot force a person to

stop smoking, but you can refuseto live in that environment.You also cannot demand that

he stop gambling, but if he isaddicted and unwilling to quit,you will have an ongoing issueabout money.He may have wonderful quali-

ties that you appreciate, but wedon't see him as a long-term part-ner unless he is willing to workon these things.

Dear Annie: I'm 12 years oldand started middle school in thefall. I've begun hanging out witha group of four other girls. I neverreally talked to them until thisyear. These girls have beentogether since kindergarten, andit seems that one of them doesn'tfully accept me. She has put up awall between the other girls andme, and I doubt she'll be ready totake it down for a long time.I'd like to be fully accepted and

want to tell them that, but I don'twant to be pushy and unkind.What do I do? — On the WrongSide of the Wall

Dear Wrong Side: You seemto have a solid grasp of the situa-tion, but we don't recommend youpit yourself against the other girl.She has "seniority," and herfriends will back her position ifforced to take sides.Instead, get to know her better.Find something you admire

about her, and tell her. She needsto see you as an ally and not as athreat to her position within thegroup. It will take a little while,but in the process, you could bemaking a friend for life.

Dear Annie: Years ago, I couldhave written the letter from"Tired Daughter," whose motheris an alcoholic. Setting bound-aries is good advice.My parents divorced to protect

my younger brothers from mymother's drinking and bipolarbehavior.When I had kids, I would never

leave them with my mother orforce them to visit. They saw heroccasionally, and I found that shewas content simply to hear abouttheir accomplishments andreceive occasional pictures toshow off.Sometimes Mom would call me,

drunk and swearing. If she wouldnot stop, I would hang up. After afew times of that, she no longercalled when she was inebriated.I continued to visit her weekly

and had a fairly good relationshipwithin the necessary restrictions.When she died, I had no regrets.Tell "Tired" not to listen to

Mom's negative stuff. She canchange the subject or try to rea-son with her. If it's a bad day andthat doesn't work, leave. I hopethis helps. You can't control her,but boundaries help.— BeenThereAnnie's Mailbox is written by

CHICAGO (AP) —Airport operators aremounting a legal challengeto the Federal AviationAdministration’s decision tocut funding for 149 air traf-fic control towers, accusingthe agency of violating fed-eral law meant to ensuremajor changes at airportsdo not erode safety.Several airports are now

asking a federal court tohalt the plan and compelthe FAA to more carefullystudy the potential safetyimpact, said Carl Olson,director of the CentralIllinois Regional Airport inBloomington, Ill. Hewarned that without a morecautious approach, liveswill be put at risk by cutsthat he contends are arbi-trary and the result of reck-less political brinkmanshipin Washington.“I think everybody’s

going to realize what theindustry knows, and that isthere is a razor thin marginof error in aviation and anydiminishment of safety isgoing to have an immediateand cascading effect,” Olsonsaid in an interview Friday.“And all the talk to the con-trary won’t change thatfact.”Olson’s airport is among

the latest to file a lawsuitthis week with the U.S.Circuit Court of Appeals inWashington. The others areSpokane Airports inWashington state, and theoperators of Florida air-ports in Naples, Ormond

Beach and Punta Gorda.The court combined thesuits into a single caseThursday.FAA spokeswoman

Laura Brown said Fridaythat the agency could notcomment on the pending lit-igation.The agency’s adminis-

trator, Michael Huerta, hasstressed that safetyremains the FAA’s top pri-ority even as it is forced bythe budget cutting knownas sequestration to trim$637 million for the rest ofthe fiscal year that endsSept. 30.The FAA said it had no

choice but to subject most ofits 47,000 employees,including tower controllers,to periodic furloughs and toclose air traffic facilities runby contractors at 149 smallairports with lighter traffic.The first of those closureswill happen April 7. Olson’sairport is slated to lose itsfunding May 5.The tower shutdowns

will not mean that airportshave to close. All pilots arerequired to know how toland at un-towered airportsand to practice those proce-dures, which include com-municating with otherpilots over a shared radiofrequency.But airport directors,

pilots and others in the avi-ation sector say strippingaway an extra layer of safe-ty during the most criticalstages of flight will elevaterisks and at the very least

slow years of progress thatmade the U.S. aviation net-work the safest in theworld.Lawrence Krauter, direc-

tor of Spokane Inter-national Airport, said heexpects more airports andpossibly trade associationsto join the legal challenge.He said the tower closuresamount to one of the mostsignificant changes to thenational air system’s safetynetwork in recent historyand deserve to be studiedcarefully.“No one’s going to tell

you … that there aren’tsome contract towers outthere that could be closed,”Krauter said. “What we’resaying is that we think thatthere needs to be a morereasoned and appropriateprocess.”Spokane’s second and

smaller airport, Felts Field,is set to lose its tower fund-ing May 5. Like many ofthe airports losing funding,it has a busy flight schooland serves the area’s med-ical air evacuation opera-tion in addition to handlingprivate aircraft.Local airport authori-

ties have been scramblingto find the money to keeptheir towers running oncethe federal funding runsout. And several of the air-port operators wrote toHuerta to ask that he haltthe plans and detail exact-ly what study and reviewprocesses, if any, the FAAhas carried out.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.(AP) — A single-page FBImemo relaying a vague andunconfirmed report of fly-ing saucers found in NewMexico in 1950 has becomethe most popular file in thebureau’s electronic readingroom.The memo, dated March

22, 1950, was sent by FBIWashington, D.C., field

office chief Guy Hottel tothen-Director J. EdgarHoover.According to the FBI,

the document was firstmade public in the late1970s and more recentlyhas been available in the“Vault,” an electronic read-ing room launched by theagency in 2011, where ithas become the most popu-

lar item, viewed nearly 1million times. The Vaultcontains around 6,700 pub-lic documents.Vaguely written, the

memo describes a storytold by an unnamed thirdparty who claims an AirForce investigator reportedthat three flying saucerswere recovered in NewMexico, though the memo

doesn’t say exactly wherein the state. The FBIindexed the report for itsfiles but did not investigatefurther the name of an“informant” reporting someof the information isblacked out in the memo.The memo offers several

bizarre details.Inside each saucer,

“each one was occupied by

three bodies of humanshape but only 3 feet tall,dressed in metallic cloth ofa very fine texture,” accord-ing to the report. “Eachbody was bandaged in amanner similar to theblackout suits used byspeed fliers and test pilots.”The saucers were found

in New Mexico because thegovernment had a high-

powered radar set up in thearea and it is believed theradar interfered with thecontrolling mechanism ofthe UFOs, according to theinformant.The FBI filed the typed

page neatly away 63 yearsago at its headquarters and“no further evaluation wasattempted.”

Interleagueintrigue thetopic in MLB

By the Associated Press

On a windy morning at springtraining, a trio of Phillies catch-ers met behind the batting cageto shoot the breeze.The topic? Interleague

intrigue, right from the get-go.“We were just talking about

that in batting practice that it’s alittle weird to face the AmericanLeague so early,” All-Star CarlosRuiz said. “But it’s a differentschedule this year.”Sure is.Josh Hamilton and the Los

Angeles Angels visit Cincinnatiin an opener that’s hardly tradi-tional. Triple Crown winnerMiguel Cabrera and the DetroitTigers finish the season atMiami minus a designated hit-ter.Derek Jeter and the Yankees

cross over to the NationalLeague each month, then hostWorld Series champion SanFrancisco in late September. Justa guess New York fans will howlat the prospect of seeing MattCain and the pitching-richGiants if a playoff spot is atstake.Add up the scattered AL vs.

NL matchups, it’s like a mini-World Series most every day.“It’s going to be totally differ-

ent,” said Houston manager BoPorter, one of six new skippers inthe majors.Might as well blame Porter’s

Astros, too. Their shift from theNL Central to the AL West left15 teams in each league, creatingall this havoc.Opening day is March 31 in

Houston when Texas comes totown for a Sunday night start.That’s followed by Angels-

Reds on April 1. A few days later,Philadelphia plays its homeopener against the Kansas CityRoyals.Just sounds jarring, doesn’t

on to play the winner ofMichigan State-Duke onSunday, hoping to advanceto the Final Four for the sec-ond straight year.E.J. Singler’s 15 points

led five Ducks in double fig-ures, and the Ducks hadonly 12 turnovers one fewerthan the Cardinals. ButOregon could never recoverfrom its poor first half, whenthe Ducks were plagued byfoul trouble JohnathanLoyd had three before half-time and an off night byDamyean Dotson. The

freshman was huge inOregon’s victory over SaintLouis, scoring a career-high23. But he was 0 for 6 in thefirst half, and didn’t make afield goal until midwaythrough the second. He fin-ished with 12 points on 5-of-14 shooting.“It wasn’t there in the

first half,” Arsalan Kazemisaid.The Cardinals were

barely tested in either oftheir first two games, beat-ing North Carolina A&T by31 and Colorado State by26. They set an NCAArecord with 20 stealsagainst A&T, outreboundedone of the country’s bestrebounding teams inColorado State and left bothteams with ugly shootinglines.But the Cardinals were

tested many times Fridaynight.Peyton Siva spent the

last 15:19 of the first half onthe bench after picking uphis second foul. But evenwithout their floor general,the Cardinals didn’t miss abeat thanks to Smith.He hita 3 to spark a 14-3 run thatput Louisville up 24-8, andthe game seemed to be allbut over.

MLBit?“It is very strange,”

Cincinnati manager DustyBaker said. “This usuallydoesn’t happen until June orJuly.”“What it does is it

increases your workload onscouting, advance reportsand things like that. Youdon’t have a lot of familiari-ty on those teams,” he said.Part of baseball’s chang-

ing landscape,Commissioner Bud Seligsays.“I’m very protective of

interleague play, but every-body convinced me it thatwould work from Day One,and I’m satisfied it will,” hesaid.“We have to quit worry-

ing about it. We play 162games. The season is a longjourney. It’s not a sprint.When the year is over, every-body has played everybodyelse. When you play it is noreason not to do something,”he said.As the season

approached, a lot of bignames settled into new set-tings.Hamilton left Texas for

the Angels, teaming withAlbert Pujols and MikeTrout in a most fearsomelineup. Zack Greinke got$147 million to pitch for theLos Angeles Dodgers.

Brothers Justin and B.JUpton wound up together inAtlanta’s outfield. KyleLohse signed withMilwaukee a week beforethe opener.The Toronto Blue Jays,

out of the postseason sincewinning their secondstraight title in 1993, madethe boldest moves. Theytraded for reigning CyYoung winner R.A. Dickey,Jose Reyes, Josh Johnsonand Mark Buehrle andsigned Melky Cabrera.“Talent alone doesn’t

win,” Blue Jays managerJohn Gibbons cautioned.Especially if stars are

sidelined.New Mets captain David

Wright, Hanley Ramirezand Mark Teixeira got hurtat the World BaseballClassic. Jeter, CurtisGranderson, Chase Headleyand David Freese are out foropening day, the futures ofAlex Rodriguez and JohanSantana are in doubt.Several top players are

on the mend, though.All-time saves leader

Mariano Rivera begins hisfarewell tour after missingmost of last year with a kneeinjury. John Lackey andVictor Martinez were absentfor the entire season andJose Bautista, TroyTulowitzki and CarlCrawford finished on the

DL.Stephen Strasburg

wasn’t active at the end,either. The WashingtonNationals shut down theirace so he wouldn’t pitch toomany innings, and fizzled intheir first playoff appear-ance.No limits on Strasburg or

the Nats this time around.“I’m excited. I think

everybody in the baseballworld, not just us, is reallyexcited to see him all year,”20-year-old Washington starBryce Harper said.Fans in Detroit, San

Francisco and St. Louis cancount on seeing familiarfaces for a while. As a long,long spring training wounddown, Tigers ace JustinVerlander, Giants MVPBuster Posey and St. Louisstar Adam Wainwrightsigned long-term deals.In the meantime, teams

are figuring out how to pre-pare for this funny season.Previously, Porter said, itwas easy to plan for blocks ofinterleague games.“A lot of times, a National

League teamwould call up aDH-type guy during thatsegment of their schedule,”he said. “Now, that’s hard todo because you’re going tohave interleague takingplace the entire course of theseason. It definitely changesroster construction.”

out a 10-point Kansaslead on a 14-4 run in thefinal 2:52 of regulation.Burke had eight points,including two 3-pointers,in the stretch.Burke gave Michigan

its first lead since early inthe game with his long 3-pointer to make it 79-78early in overtime.Burke was scoreless in

the first half for theWolverines, then got histeam going by scoringeight straight points earlyin the second half tomomentarily cut thedeficit to two.“In the second half,

10-point lead built ondominating inside in thefirst half, this time with a3-pointer and a toma-hawk dunk on a break-away by McLemore and athree-point play fromJohnson.Johnson, who picked

up three fouls in justthree minutes of playingtime in the first half, gaveKansas its biggest lead at68-54 with a 3-pointerfrom the corner with justunder 7 minutes left.Travis Releford had 16

points for the Jayhawks,while Jeff Withey had 12points and eightrebounds.



Buckeyesparity throughout collegebasketball when six of thetop eight seeds lost on thefirst weekend.Anybody who tries to

paint this matchup asDavid facing down Goliathwill get polite disagree-ment from the supposed bigguy and the alleged littleguy alike.That’s just not how col-

lege basketball works any-more, according to bothCraft and Wichita Statecoach Gregg Marshall.Neither team has anydoubt Wichita State (29-8)belongs on the same courtwith the mighty Buckeyes(29-7) for a chance to go toAtlanta.“We have to go out there

and play our hearts out,”Wichita State’s CleanthonyEarly said. “So regardless iftheir facilities are a littlebit bigger than ours,they’ve got to lace up theirshoes just like us.”Sure, the Shockers can’t

match Ohio State’s finan-cial resources or alumnibase. They’ve got every-

thing else necessary to playwith the Buckeyes for those40 minutes and even pulloff one more surprise intheir charmed run throughMarch.“What I love is the fact

they’re not really bouncingoff the wall,” Marshall saidof his Shockers. “They seemto be legitimately unsatis-fied thus far. We knowwe’ve got a great opponentand a tremendous chal-lenge, but at the same time,we’re in that Elite Eightgame.We have an opportu-nity, and our best is goingto be hard to beat.”Wichita State is making

its first regional finalsappearance since 1981,looking for a spot in its firstFinal Four since theschool’s only previous tripin 1965. The Shockers’ 29victories match the schoolrecord set just two yearsago under Marshall, thelow-profile, high-energycoach who spent part ofFriday fending off ques-tions about UCLA’s jobvacancy from eager LosAngeles reporters.

OSU defense relies on veteran secondaryCOLUMBUS (AP) —

Safety Christian Bryantdoesn’t mince words.He’s straight to the

point, just like when hemakes a tackle — headfirst, shoulders square,legs churning, leaving acalling card for a wincingball-carrier.“I’m chasing a national

championship,” he said.“That’s what I’m chasing.”

If Ohio State is to pur-sue such a lofty goal — andthe Buckeyes are comingoff a glittering 12-0 season— then Bryant and a vet-eran secondary will likelybe the ringleaders, so tospeak.Ohio State may have

big question marks ondefense, but none of themcome at the back end.Bryant, cornerback

Bradley Roby and safetyC.J. Barnett comprisethree of the four seniors onthat side of the ball. Nowonder the backfield fig-ures to be a load-bearingwall for the rest of theunit.“That’s going to be our

backbone this year — me,Christian, C.J., CoreyBrown,” said Roby, whoflirted with jumping into

the NFL draft in January.“We’ve been here for a longtime. We know how thingsare going to go, how thingsshould go. We just have tolead these young guys.”Barnett and Bryant are

back to fill the safety spots.Doran Grant will get along look at the otherstarting cornerback spot.Filling in behind them

are Brown and several

youngsters, including twokids who are participatingin spring workouts whileother classmates are goingto prom and planninggraduation parties — cor-ners Eli Apple and CamBurrows.“I really like ‘em. I think

they’re playing at a rea-sonably high level forspring football,” corner-backs coach Kerry Coombs

said of his charges in histypical, raspy, half-yell.“The young guys are get-ting a lot of reps. We’ve gotgood leadership fromBradley Roby. And we’recompeting every day. Ireally like the work ethic.They’re very diligent andvery serious about theirbusiness. And they’regoing to be very, very goodas time develops.”

er Chris Schmitt — whoqualified in doubles withgraduate Ben Thompson,his first doubles partnerduring the regular season— returns also, but in anew position. After get-ting limited experience atthird singles last season,Schmitt will begin theseason at second singles.“That’s going to be an

adjustment for Chris,playing second singles,”Goldner said. “Instead ofserving every four games,he’ll be doing it everyother game. He won’thave a partner to lean onat all. He’s going to haveto learn to control hisemotions out there, but ifhe does that, he can hope-fully have a great seniorseason.”Also bumping up a spot

will be the team of juniorsMatt Alexander and IanStutz. After a year spentprimarily at second dou-bles, the duo will be Troy’sfirst doubles team.“Matt and Ian got a lot

of experience at seconddoubles, but stepping upto first is going to be anadjustment,” Goldnersaid. “They’re going to seea lot more harder-hit

balls, and they’re going tohave to be more aggres-sive.”Stepping up to the var-

sity level will be sopho-more Jesse Wright andjunior Aaron Coon, whoboth played JV last year.Also new to the team willbe freshmen HidekacuAsami and Matt Schmitt.“We have eight players

that will see varsityaction this year,” Goldnersaid. “Right now withthose four, Hide and Mattcould play second doublestogether, and they’ll bothget chances at third sin-gles, also. And Aaron andJesse could end up team-ing up with someone atsecond doubles, too. We’llfit them in there and seehow it goes.”And with Butler to con-

tend with in GreaterWestern Ohio ConferenceNorth Division play, thoseadjustments will have tobe made quickly.“Vandalia’s got every-

one back,” Goldner said.“They’re loaded at all thesingles spots, one, two andthree, plus they’ve gottheir first doubles andmaybe some of seconddoubles back, too. Theycould be the top team inthe area, but Springboro’sgot some kids back, too.“We’re a little younger

Verlander, Tigersreach 7-year,$180 million dealLAKELAND, Fla. (AP)

— For Justin Verlander,$180 million was enough.No need to wait two sea-sons, become a free agentand find out how muchbaseball’s biggestspenders would offer.“I wondered what it

would be like to test freeagency, but the pull ofDetroit was too much,” theTigers’ ace said Fridayafter agreeing to a seven-year contract, the richestdeal for a pitcher in base-ball history. “Once springtraining started I knew Iwanted to stay.”Verlander’s deal broke

the record for pitchers setjust a month earlier whenSeattle’s Felix Hernandezagreed to a $175 million,seven-year contract.“It’s a very exciting

day,” Tigers PresidentDave Dombrowski said.“It’s a big day for us. He’sas fine a pitcher as thereis in baseball. His recordspeaks for itself. He can beone of the greatest, if not

the greatest pitcher inTiger history.”The 2011 AL MVP and

Cy Young Award winnerhad been signed through2014 under an $80 mil-lion, five-year contractpaying him $20 million ineach of the next two sea-sons.The new deal keeps

those salaries and adds$140 million in guaran-teed money: $28 millioneach season from 2015-19.It includes a $22 millionoption for 2020 that wouldbecome guaranteed if hefinishes among the topfive in 2019 Cy Young vot-ing. The deal could beworth $202 million overeight seasons.“The city of Detroit is

committed to winning,” hesaid. “I’m so excited to beplaying in Detroit. I wasnever shy about saying Iwanted to stay in Detroit.It’s tough to put intowords how much I loveDetroit. We have the bestfans in baseball.”

Qualifier in leadas McIlroy barelymakes cutHUMBLE, Texas (AP)

— Steve Wheatcroft hatesgoing to Monday quali-fiers. He was remindedFriday why they can beworth it.Wheatcroft, who nar-

rowly qualified for theHouston Open at the startof the week, ran off threestraight birdies early inhis round and kept bogeysoff his card for a secondstraight 5-under 67. Thatgave him a one-shot leadover D.A. Points and JasonKokrak going into theweekend at Redstone GolfClub.Rory McIlroy also will

be around for two moredays, but just barely.In only his 10th full

round of the year, McIlroywalked onto the seventhgreen his 16th hole of theday and saw that he wastied for 77th. He two-putted from 85 feet on thefringe for birdie on hisnext hole, and then safely

found the green at the par-3 ninth for a 70. By the endof the day, McIlroy madethe cut on the number.“It a weekend where I

can have a couple morerounds and try and getconfidence in what I’mdoing,” McIlroy.His big surprise came

later. McIlroy, feeling asthough he needs morerounds to get ready for theMasters, decided to enterthe Texas Open next week.Phil Mickelson also

made the cut on the num-ber after a bogey on thelast hole for a 71.Mickelson, who has playedthe Masters with two driv-ers in the bag, decided toplay Redstone on Fridaywith two 3-woods in thebag, though one of them isso strong it acts like a driv-er.“If I can play like I did

the back nine, I’m going togive myself a lot of birdiechances,” Mickelson said.

You might sometimes feel rushedthrough an appointment if your doctorgives an impression of busyness or be-gins to ask questions before you’vefinished presenting your complaints.But sometimes it’s simply a matter ofefficiency: the physician has a tightschedule, many patients, and needsyou to get to the point right away sothat he or she can help you feel betterfast. Here are two ways to help maxi-mize those precious minutes of a med-ical consultation:LISTYOUR SYMPTOMSANDORGANIZE YOUR QUESTIONS

Before you meet with your doctor,write down exactly what you wanthim or her to know, including theexact symptoms you’re experiencing(location and degree of pain or dis-comfort, possible linked symptoms,observations), any relevant family his-tory, and any other medications orherbal remedies you are taking. If youfeel the doctor has started to discusstreatment before hearing all yoursymptoms, be absolutely sure you fin-ish presenting all your complaints.REPEAT BACKWHATYOU’VE LEARNED

Non-compliance — when a patientdoes not follow through on a treat-ment plan or prescription protocol— accounts for a lot of wasted med-ication and continued physical dis-

comfort. If you have any doubtsabout the doctor’s diagnosis, be sureto express them. Likewise, if youfeel he or she was too quick to pre-scribe a medication, ask to discussanother approach to solving theproblem. If it helps, write down thedoctor’s evaluation, record it on anaudio recorder, or bring along afriend or family member for support.

You probably have a couple of physicians that youvisit annually for checkups and more often whenneeded. If you're lucky, you spend more time watch-ing doctors on television than you do sitting in their of-fices. At first glance, practicing medicine may seem

glamorous. While there is prestige and money involvedin the profession, there are also long hours and some-times difficult cases. The path to becoming a doctor iseven more arduous.

Obtaining a medical degree requires an enormousamount of study and education. Most students start byenrolling in a pre-med program at a college or univer-sity, and upon nearing completion of their bachelor'sdegree, take the Medical College Admission Test(M.C.A.T.) and apply to medical school. If accepted,they spend four years there studying various aspects ofthe field of medicine. The first year usually consists ofbasic science courses, like anatomy and physiology,while the second year consists of courses focused

specifically on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.At the end of their second year of medical school,

students must take the first part of the U.S. Medical Li-censing Examination and demonstrate knowledge ofbasic medical sciences. If they pass, they can proceedwith their studies. In the third year of medical school,students start their rotations through the specialties ofmedicine, like surgery and radiology.

In the fourth year, they continue with rotations, butare given more responsibilities and must complete elec-tives. At the end of that year, they must take the secondpart of the Medical Licensing Examination and demon-strate their ability to apply their medical knowledge topatient cases and provide patient care under supervi-sion.

Upon completion of medical school, students starttheir residency. Generally a residency consists of threeor more years of training in a specialty the student haschosen. The specific length of the program varies fromspecialty to specialty. While a residency in neurologyusually takes three years, a residency in radiology takesfour to five years and a residency in internal medicinetakes three years plus two to three years in a subspe-cialty like geriatrics.

The first year of residency is known as an intern-ship. During this time, students rotate through differentspecialties or areas within a specialty. They spend theremainder of their residency training in their specialty.After their residency, students may do more trainingthrough a fellowship program. Upon completion oftheir residency or fellowship, students can finally ob-tain a medical license. The rules for getting a medicallicense vary by state.

Four years of college, four years of medical school,three or more years of residency and sometimes a fel-lowship-that's what it takes to become a doctor. It is apath that only the strong survive.

The next time you're waiting to see your physician,consider the measures they have taken to get wherethey are. Sure, they may make great money, but theysure went through a lot to get there.
