Online video of NY bus monitor bullying stirs passion, anger

2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 By CHRIS CAROLA and MICHAEL HILL By Associated Press A video of four seventhgrade boys mercilessly taunting a 68-year-old bus monitor in New York state that went viral has turned the victim into an international fundraising juggernaut and opened her tormentors to an onslaught of threats and abuse. From around the world, small donations for Karen Klein poured into the crowdfunding site indiegogo.com, at one point crashing the site and pulling in a staggering $443,057 by early today. At the same time, police in the Rochester suburb of Greece, N.Y., were stepping up patrols around the houses of the middle-schoolers accused of taunting her. Police didnt name the boys but their purported identities leaked out on the Web. Greece Police Capt. Steve Chatterton was compelled to warn against vigilante justice. One boy received more than a thousand death threats and commenters online were clear and sometimes venomous in their desire that the boys be severely punished. A threat for a threat does not make the situation better, Chatterton said at a news conference Thursday afternoon. The verbal abuse was captured in a 10-minute cellphone video recorded Monday by a student of Athena Middle School and later posted to YouTube. The video shows Klein trying her best to ignore the stream of profanity, insults and outright threats. One student taunted: You dont have a family because they all killed themselves because they dont want to be near you. Kleins oldest son killed himself 10 years ago. Eventually, she appears to break down in tears. The swell of support for Klein follows a recent surge in awareness of bullying that has brought the issue from the classroom to the stage and

screen to the White House. Bullying expert Stephen Birchak, a professor of counseling at Albanys College of Saint Rose, said the enormous flow of money for Klein is no surprise given the shame we feel as a society over the incident. The stickier question is: How could the students be so cruel? Birchak noted that the kids are growing up in a world of See VIDEO, page 2

ment. The fundraiser flew past its goal of $5,000, initially designed to send the grandmother of eight on a vacation of a lifetime. Some 20,875 people had donated by early today, many in denominations of $20 or less. You want to jump into that bus and you want to grab those kids and say Knock it off! And you want to hold her, said Amy Weber, a 43-year-old independent filmmaker from the Detroit area who pledged $100. I think we hear about bullying every day and we become a little desensitized to it. This puts it in our face said Weber, who is making a feature film about a bully. Slava Rubin, Indiegogos chief executive officer and cofounder, called the outpouring an incredible campaign. Were seeing good Samaritans come together to support this brave woman, and we hope that this campaign contributes positively to the important national discussion about bullying, Rubin said in a prepared statement.

Meanwhile, taking videos of people in humiliating situations and sharing the images has become all too normal among many adolescents, Kids are growing up saying, OK, this is how you treat your fellow human being and its OK to do those things, he said. Police said Klein does not want the boys to face criminal charges, partly because of the storm of criticism leveled at them. Klein told NBCs Today show Thursday that it took a lot of willpower not to respond to the jeers from the four boys riding the bus operated by the Greece Central School District. Klein said she was amazed at the support she received. Ive got these nice letters, emails, Facebook messages, she said. Its like, wow, theres a whole world out there that I didnt know.

Biden to talk about jobs, union fight

BRIEFS

HAMILTON (AP) Vice President Joe Biden is slated to visit southwest Ohio next week to talk about President Barack Obamas jobs plan and how it relates to union workers and the middle class. The Obama campaign says Biden will travel Monday to Hamilton, which is part of Republican House Speaker John Boehners (BAY-nurz) district. The campaign says Biden will talk about keeping teachers and emergency responders on the job. The visit is meant to help mark one year since opponents of an Ohio bill limiting collective bargaining rights delivered 1.3 million signatures to get a referendum on the ballot. Educators, firefighters and police were among the union workers who successfully campaigned to turn back the measure, known as Senate Bill 5.

Vision Airlines ends NW Ohio route to Myrtle Beach

TOLEDO (AP) Charter carrier Vision Airlines is ending its seasonal service between Toledo, Ohio, and Myrtle Beach, S.C., after less than a month because of poor ticket sales. The carrier began flying from Toledo Express Airport on June 1 but said Thursday the route will be discontinued after June 29. A statement from the port authority in Toledo indicated the service didnt generate enough sales to keep it going. Port authority spokeswoman Holly Kemler told The Blade newspaper she didnt know how many tickets had been sold and had no other information about Vision Airlines decision. She says the port authority spent about $36,000 on advertising to promote the service. The Georgia-based, lowfare airline also offers service to Myrtle Beach from other parts of Ohio, including Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus.

Boehner takes hard line on Holder contempt vote

BY LARRY MARGASAK The Associated Press WASHINGTON House Speaker John Boehner demanded Thursday that the Obama administration give in and turn over documents related to a botched guntracking operation, insisting thats the only way to stop a House vote to hold the attorney general in contempt. Boehner took a hard line against the Obama administration and Attorney General Eric Holder despite a willingness by House Republicans and Holder to negotiate a settlement before the matter becomes a constitutional crisis. The president has invoked executive privilege, a legal principle used to avoid disclosure of internal presidential documents. While a confrontation between the legislative and executive branches of government would be an academic dispute to most voters, Boehner on Thursday injected a human element into the battle over documents related to Operation Fast and Furious. He said the family of slain border agent Brian Terry deserved answers about the guns that killed him. Two guns that were allowed to walk from Arizona to Mexico in the failed effort to track weapons were found near Terry after he was killed. The Terry family deserves answers about why their son was killed as a result of an operation run by the United States government, Boehner told his weekly news conference. During the year and a half investigation by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, the Justice Department turned over 7,600 documents about details of Operation Fast and Furious. But because the department initially denied and then admitted it used a risky investigative technique known as gun-walking, the committee has turned its attention to how the department responded to the investigation. The additional documents it seeks are about that topic. Agents of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Arizona abandoned the agencys usual practice of intercepting all weapons they believed to be illicitly purchased. Instead, the goal of gun-walking was to track such weapons to high-level arms traffickers

The Conference Boards index of leading economic indicators increased to 95.8. Thats the highest level since June 2008, which was six months into the recession. Still, before the recession, the index routinely topped 100. The generally bleak news came a day after the Fed downgraded its outlook for growth and took another step to try and jolt the economy. The Fed now expects growth of just 1.9 percent to 2.4 percent for the year. Thats half a percentage point lower than its previous estimate in April. And it thinks the unemployment rate, now 8.2 percent, wont fall much further in 2012.

Weak US job market weighing on broader economy

Bipartisan effort leads to Senate OK of farm bill

BY JIM ABRAMS The Associated Press WASHINGTON The Senate on Thursday completed a five-year, half-trilliondollar farm bill that cuts farm subsidies and land conservation spending by about $2 billion a year but largely protects sugar growers and some 46 million food stamp beneficiaries. The 64-35 vote for passage defied political odds. Many inside and outside of Congress had predicted that legislation so expensive and so complicated would have little chance of advancing in an election year. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell called it one of the finest moments in the Senate in recent times in terms of how you pass a bill. The bipartisanship seen in the Senate may be less evident in the House, where conservatives are certain to resist the bills costs, particularly for food stamps. Food stamp spending has doubled in the past five years, and beneficiaries have grown from by about 20 million to 46 million. The programs budget is now about $80 billion a year, comprising 80 percent of the spending in the farm bill. Farm bills traditionally have been bipartisan efforts, and leaders of the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry Committee leaders made a point of showing how their bill would bring down the deficit. While overall spending on programs covered by the bill has climbed because more people are receiving food stamps, the committee head, Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., and the top Republican, Sen. Pat Roberts of Kansas, said the bill would save $23 billion over the next 10 years compared with spending under the current farm bill. That comes from replacing four farm commodity subsidy programs with one, consolidating 23 conservation programs into 13, and ending several sources of abuse in food stamps. That program is called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. The biggest change comes from eliminating direct payments to farmers whether they plant crops or not. The program, which costs about $5 billion a year, has lost much of its support at a time of $1 trillion federal deficits and when farmers in general are prospering. That subsidy, and a separate one where the government sets target prices and pays farmers when prices go below that level, will be

who had long eluded prosecution and to dismantle their networks. Gun-walking has long been barred by Justice Department policy, but federal agents in Arizona experimented with it in at least two investigations during the George W. Bush administration before Fast and Furious. These experiments came as the department was under widespread criticism that the old policy of arresting every suspected low-level straw purchaser was still allowing tens of thousands of guns to reach Mexico. A straw purchaser is an illicit buyer of guns for others. The agents in Arizona lost track of several hundred weapons in Operation Fast and Furious. Boehner renewed his allegation that President Barack Obamas decision to assert executive privilege to withhold the documents is an admission the White House officials were involved in the decision that misled the Congress and covered up the truth. In fact, historically, several presidents have invoked executive privilege over Cabinet department documents that did not directly involve White House officials.

U.S. mulls new covert raids in Pakistan

By KIMBERLY DOZIER The Associated Press WASHINGTON U.S. military and intelligence officials are so frustrated with Pakistans failure to stop local militant groups from attacking Americans in neighboring Afghanistan that they have considered launching secret joint U.S.-Afghan commando raids into Pakistan to hunt them down, officials told The Associated Press. But the idea, which U.S. officials say comes up every couple of months, has been consistently rejected because the White House believes the chance of successfully rooting out the deadly Haqqani network would not be worth the intense diplomatic blowback from Pakistan that inevitably would ensue. Members of the Haqqani tribe have been targeted by pilotless U.S. drone aircraft, but sending American and Afghan troops into Pakistan would be a serious escalation of the hunt for terrorists and potentially the final straw for Pakistan, already angered over what it sees as U.S. violations of its sovereignty. The al-Qaida-allied Haqqani tribe runs a mafialike smuggling operation and occasionally turns to terrorism with the aim of controlling its territory in eastern Afghanistan. The Haqqanis use Pakistani towns to plan, train and arm themselves with guns and explosives, cross into Afghanistan to attack NATO and Afghan forces, then retreat back across the border to safety. The latest round of debate over whether to launch clandestine special operations raids into Pakistan against the Haqqanis came after the June 1 car bombing of Forward Operating Base Salerno in eastern Afghanistan that injured up to 100 U.S. and Afghan soldiers, according to three current and two former U.S. officials who were briefed on the discussions. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to describe the still-evolving debates. The officials told the AP that recent discussions of clandestine ground attacks have included Gen. John Allen, the senior U.S. commander in Afghanistan, as well as top CIA and special operations officials. Allens spokesman, Navy Cmdr. Brook DeWalt, said Allen has not and does not intend to push for a crossborder operation. The White House and the CIA declined to comment for

replaced. There will be greater reliance on crop insurance and a new program that covers smaller losses on planted crops before crop insurance kicks in. The bill also prevents farm managers, often wealthy people who may not live or work on a farm, from receiving subsidy payments and gives greater help to fruit and vegetable producers and healthy food programs. The Senate rejected several Republican amendments that would have reduced food stamp spending by such means as tightening up eligibility requirements. The bill saves about $4 billion over 10 years, a small amount compared with the projected $770 billion in spending for food stamps over 10 years. It stops lottery winners and more affluent college students from receiving benefits and cracks down on benefit trafficking. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack praised the Senate bill for making progress toward providing a reformed safety net for producers in times of needs, supporting agriculture research, conserving natural resources, strengthening local food systems and promoting jobs. He expressed hope the House will produce a bill with those same goals in mind.

Moderately confused

this story. Pentagon spokesman George Little said the U.S. was still focused on U.S.Pakistan cooperation. The key is to work together with Pakistan to find ways of fighting terrorists who threaten both the United States and Pakistan, including along the Afghan-Pakistan border, where extremists continue to plot attacks against coalition forces and innocent civilians, he said. The U.S. relationship with Pakistan is arguably at its lowest point over the continuation of drone strikes to hit terror targets in Pakistan, the successful Navy SEAL raid in Pakistan to kill Osama bin Laden that was carried out without a heads-up to the countrys leaders and the U.S. refusal to apologize for a border skirmish in which the U.S. mistakenly killed 24 Pakistani troops. On Thursday, the State Departments inspector general accused the Pakistani government of harassing U.S. Embassy personnel. Pakistan has done little in response to repeated U.S. requests for a crackdown on the Haqqanis, and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta surprisingly voiced that frustration in a visit to Kabul this month.

Champs! James tripledouble lifts Heat to title

By BRIAN MAHONEY The Associated Press MIAMI Music blared and confetti fell, the only celebration LeBron James really wanted in Miami. Not that one two summers ago, the welcoming rally where he boasted of multiple titles, perhaps without realizing how hard it would be to win just one. He dreamed of this moment, with teammates surrounding him and the NBA championship trophy beside him. You know, my dream has become a reality now and its the best feeling I ever had, James said. James had 26 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists, leading the Miami Heat in a 121106 rout of the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday night to win the NBA Finals in five games. Ripped and ridiculed for the way he announced he was leaving Cleveland and taking his talents to South Beach, its all worth it now for James. Best player in the game. Best team in the league. And now, NBA champion. Im happy now that eight years later, nine years later since Ive been drafted, that I can finally say that Im a champion, and I did it the right way, James said. I didnt shortcut anything. You know, I put a lot of hard work and dedication in it and hard work pays off. Its a great moment for myself. And for his teammates, who watched the Dallas Mavericks celebrate on their floor last year. James left the game along with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh for good with 3:01 remaining for a round of hugs and the start for a party hes been waiting for since arriving in the NBA out of high school as the No. 1 pick of the 2003 draft. James hopped up and down in the final minutes, shared a long hug with opponent Kevin Durant, and then soaked in the MVP! MVP! chants during the raucous postgame. He was a choker last year, the guy who came up small in the fourth quarter, mocked for shrinking in the moment while playing with what he called hatred in trying to prove his critics wrong. He came to Miami seeking an easier road to the finals but found it tougher than he expected, the Heat coming up empty last year and nearly getting knocked out in the Eastern Conference finals this time by Boston. Facing elimination there, James poured in 45 points on the road to force a Game 7 and the Heat won it at home. This time, with a chance to clinch, the Heat took control in the second quarter, briefly lost it and blew the game open again in the third behind their role players, James content to pass to wide-open 3-point shooters while the Thunder focused all their attention on him. The disappointment of losing to Dallas in six games a year ago vanished in a blowout of the demoralized Thunder, who got 32 points and 11 rebounds from Durant. Bosh and Wade, the other members of the Big Three who sat alongside James as he promised titles at his Miami welcoming party, both had strong games. Bosh, who wept as the Heat left their own court after losing Game 6 last year, finished with 24 points and Wade scored 20. The Heat also got a huge boost from Mike Miller, who made seven 3-pointers and scored 23 points. That all made it easier for James, the most heavily scrutinized player in the league since his departure from Cleveland, when he announced he was taking his talents to South Beach on a TV special called The Decision that was criticized everywhere from water coolers to the commissioners office. James has said he wishes he handled things differently but few who watched the Cavs fail to assemble championship talent around him could have argued with his desire to depart. In Miami, he found a team that didnt need him to do it alone, though he reminded everyone during this sensational postseason run that he still could when necessary. He got support whenever he needed it in this series, from Shane Battiers 17 points in Game 2 to Mario Chalmers 25 in Game 4. In the clincher it was Miller, banged up from so many injuries that he limped from the bench to scorers table when he checked in. He made his fourth 3-pointer of the half right before James fast-break basket capped a 15-2 run that extended Miamis lead to 53-36 with 4:42 remaining in the first half. The Thunder were making a remarkably early trip to the finals just three years after starting 3-29, beating the Mavericks, Lakers and Spurs along the way. With Durant, Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka and James Harden all 23 or younger, the Thunder have the pieces in place for a lengthy stay atop the Western Conference. But their inexperience showed in this series, a few questionable decisions, possessions and outright mistakes costing them in their franchises first finals appearance since Seattle lost to Chicago in 1996. Westbrook scored 19 but made only four of his 20 shots, unable to come up with anything close to his 43-point outing in Game 4, and Harden finished a miserable series with 19. It hurts, man, Durant said. Were all brothers on this team and it just hurts to go out like this. We made it to the finals, which was cool for us, but we didnt want to just make it there. Unfortunately we lost, so its tough. Nothing they did could have stopped James, anyway. Appearing fully recovered from the leg cramps that forced him to sit out the end of Game 4, he was dominant again, a combination of strength and speed that is

CWS

S. Carolina beats Arkansas 2-0 on 3-hitter in CWS

By ERIC OLSON The Associated Press OMAHA, Neb. Lefty see, lefty do. Hours after he watched senior left-hander Michael Roths 2-hitter against Kent State keep South Carolinas season alive, freshman lefty Jordan Montgomery did his best imitation of the Gamecocks undisputed team leader when he got his turn against Arkansas on Thursday night. Montgomery held the Razorbacks to three singles over eight innings and the 2-time defending national champions won 2-0 to force a rematch tonight that will decide which team goes to the best-of-3 College World Series finals against Arizona. The Gamecocks (48-18) have staved off elimination twice since Arkansas (48-18) beat them 2-1 on Monday, snapping their record 22-game winning streak in the NCAA tournament. Coach Ray Tanner couldnt have hoped for a better outcome after the 4-1 win over Kent State. The only reliever he called on Thursday was closer Matt Price, who worked the ninth inning against Arkansas for his 13th save. The Gamecocks runs Thursday came in the second inning on Tanner Englishs double and Chase Vergasons single. Montgomery (6-1) struck out six and walked one in his first outing since June 3. South Carolina is the third team in the 63-year history of the CWS to win two full games in the same day. The last to do it was Holy Cross in 1952, when it beat Western Michigan and Penn State en route to the title. Tennessee won two in a day in 1951. South Carolina pitchers faced 57 batters in Thursdays two games three over the minimum. Roth came up big after Wednesday nights elimination game against Kent State was postponed because of rain. Tanner decided to start Roth because the rainout gave the staff ace a fourth day of rest. Montgomery, who had been the scheduled starter on Wednesday, was quite efficient when his turn came up against the Razorbacks. He threw 89 pitches, 52 for strikes, before giving way to Price. Three of Arkansas four batters to reach base against Montgomery were erased. Joe Serrano was caught stealing in the first, Bo Bigham was thrown out at third in the fifth and Matt Vinson was doubled off first on a line drive to shortstop in the sixth. Arkansas had handed Montgomery his only loss of the season last month. He was tagged for nine hits and five runs in 5 1/3 innings that night. Three singles, a walk and a hit batsman were all the Hogs could muster against him Thursday. Arkansas pitching staff came into the game having allowed just two runs over its previous 32 1/3 innings. Randall Fant (2-3) lasted only 1 1/3 innings, allowing four hits and getting charged for both runs. Brandon Moore pitched 5 2/3 innings of 2-hit relief but his effort went unrewarded because the Hogs couldnt crack Montgomery. Arkansas might have cost itself a run in the sixth when Bigham tried to go from first to third on Derrick Bleekers hit to left. English threw him out to end the inning.

practically unmatched in the game and rarely seen in its history. Wade skipped to each side of the court before the opening tip with arms up to pump up the fans, then James showed them nothing wrong with his legs, throwing down an emphatic fast-break dunk to open the scoring. He made consecutive baskets while being fouled, showing no expression after the second, as if hed hardly even known he was hit. Drawing so much attention from the Thunder, he started finding his wide-open shooters and the Heat built a 9-point lead before going to the second up 31-26. Oklahoma City got back within five early in the third before consecutive 3-pointers by Chalmers and Battier triggered a 27-7 burst that made it 88-63 on another 3-pointer by Miller. James didnt even score in the run until it was almost over, hitting a pair of free throws after he was flagrantly fouled by Derek Fisher while powering toward the basket. Gone was the tentative player who was mocked for shrinking on the big stage last year, too willing to defer to others who didnt possess half his talents. This time, he was at peace off the court and attacking on it, vowing to have no regrets and playing in such a way they wouldnt be necessary. Miami had outscored Oklahoma City by just 389384 over the first four games but the Thunder were buried under a barrage of 14 3-pointers, tying the NBA record.

Notes: Miami became the third team to sweep the middle three games at home in the 2-3-2 format. The Detroit Pistons took all three from the Los Angeles Lakers in 2004 before the Heat did it against Dallas in 2006. ... Coach Erik Spoelstra tied Pat Riley for the Heat franchise record with his 34th postseason win. He is 34-22, while Riley was just 34-36. ... The 4-game losing streak that Oklahoma City finished the season with was its longest of the season. Thunder had dropped three straight games to Memphis, Miami and Indiana from April 2-6.

The Associated Press Interleague DETROIT Quintin Berry hit a tie-breaking RBI single in the 10th inning to give Detroit a 2-1 win over St. Louis on Thursday. Ramon Santiago and Jhonny Peralta hit one-out singles off Victor Marte (0-1), who then grazed Austin Jacksons jersey with a pitch. Berry followed with a base hit up the middle through a drawn-in infield. Joaquin Benoit (1-1) got the win. The Detroit bullpen shut out St. Louis after Jacob Turner allowed a run and four hits in five innings. Kyle Lohse allowed a run and four hits in seven innings for the Cardinals. Prince Fielder homered for the Tigers.

ending shot as Oakland completed the sweep. Cespedes connected with no outs off Josh Lindblom (2-1) for his seventh homer of the season. Oakland has won eight out of nine after holding the NLs best team to eight total hits in the 3-game series. Starters Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers and Travis Blackley each excelled. They both allowed one run and three hits in eight innings. Blackley walked none and struck out six while the NL Cy Young winner fanned seven and walked two. Ryan Cook (2-1) relieved Blackley in the ninth. NATIONALS 5, RAYS 2 WASHINGTON Suspended Tampa Bay reliever Joel Peralta served up a tie-breaking, 2-run double to Danny Espinosa in the sixth inning that lifted Washington. Earlier in the day, Peralta (0-3) learned that he had been penalized by Major League Baseball for eight games after being caught with pine tar in his glove Tuesday night. Peralta is appealing the decision and can keep playing until a final decision is reached. Gio Gonzalez (9-3) pitched six innings on a steamy night when the gametime temperature was 97 degrees. Tyler Clippard pitched the ninth for his 11th save.

(StatePoint) Just because its summer vacation, doesnt mean your kids should sit idle. Instead of allowing them to fritter away in front of the television while school is out, encourage them to use the downtime to give back to the community. How can you get your kids to lend a helping hand? Children will really get on board with causes that speak to their interests. Three real-life heroines who were recently honored for their charitable work by the Harlequin More Than Words awards program offer some insights as to how young people can spend the summer giving back. For their extraordinary community contributions, Harlequin donated $15,000 to each of their causes. Get Involved: There are plenty of hands-on volunteer opportunities wellsuited for young people, such as walking dogs at an animal shelter, reading to seniors in a nursing home, or picking up trash at a cleanup. Mentor: Most people think you need to be older to be a mentor. Even young

How to get your kids volunteering this summer

people have something to offer their peers, says Sally Spencer, the CEO of Youth Assisting Youth. Teens and young adults who are home during the summer should consider serving as mentors to at-risk youth. Both mentor and mentee stand to gain from such a friendship. Organize: Talk to your local shelter or food pantry to see what items are needed most and help your child organize a food drive through his or her summer camp or community center. Communities hold the collaborative strength needed to tackle hunger, says Helen McGovern, executive director of the Emergency Food Network. Raid the Piggy Bank: Many children want to give to a cause on their own, says Mindy Atwood, CEO and founder of Patches of Light, a nonprofit organization for families of critically ill children. You can encourage charitable giving at an early age by helping them allocate a portion of their allowance for charity each week. Donate: Kids outgrow clothing and books quickly. Together, clean out their closets and shelves and donate what is usable to charity.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Use the same formula that worked well in the past if you get involved in a similar situation. Chances are, what youre doing now wont be too different. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -For some strange reason, youll easily be able to anticipate what friends are thinking and are going to say before they open their mouths.

Sandusky jury rehears Penn St. assistant testimony

By GENARO C. ARMAS and MARK SCOLFORO The Associated Press BELLEFONTE, Pa. Jurors in Jerry Sanduskys child sex abuse trial listened again to testimony from a key prosecution witness today as they began their second day of deliberations in the former Penn State assistant football coachs high-profile case. The jury deliberated for more than eight hours Thursday before adjourning at the end of a long session that featured dueling portrayals of Sandusky as a predatory pedophile or the victim of a conspiracy between investigators and his accusers. Sandusky is accused of sexually abusing 10 boys over a 15-year period, using his charity for at-risk youth, The Second Mile, as a source of victims who would be dazzled by gifts, grateful for his attention and perhaps most importantly unlikely to speak up. Sandusky has repeatedly denied the allegations. The defense portrayed him as the hapless victim of a conspiracy to convict him of heinous crimes. They explain the 48 charges against him as the result of an investigatory team out for blood and accusers who willingly played along in hopes of securing a big payday. Judge John Cleland said jurors would take a couple of hours today to listen again to testimony from Mike McQueary and Dr. Jonathan Dranov. The testimony was being read out loud from transcripts. McQueary told the court he saw Sandusky engaging in a sex act with a young boy in a Penn State shower in 2001. Dranov later testified that McQueary told him a different version of the story that didnt include the then-graduate assistant seeing sexual contact. However, McQueary testified that he hadnt told Dranov all that he saw. Shortly after the jury began deliberations Thursday, attorneys for Sanduskys 33-yearold adopted son, Matt, dropped a bombshell, saying that hed been sexually abused by the former coach and had been prepared to testify against him if he was called to the stand. Sequestered during deliberations, the jury was under orders from Cleland to ponder only the case placed in their hands. The jury heard from eight accusers who claim Sandusky engaging in sexual contact ranging from kissing and fondling to forced oral or anal sex. One testified he felt at times like Sanduskys son, at others his girlfriend. A second accuser a foster child at the time authorities say he was abused said Sandusky threatened he would never see his biological family again if he told anyone he was forced to perform sex acts but later took it back and claimed to love him. One accuser testified to w receiving what he called creepy love letters from Sandusky. I know that I have made my share of mistakes, read one handwritten

Whos landing the big interviews after Oprah?

NEW YORK (AP) Since Oprah Winfrey packed up the couch that Tom Cruise jumped on and ended her daytime talk show last year, no one has truly filled her role as the top go-to person in television for major celebrity and news interviews. Now someone is trying to claim that spot and would you believe its Oprah again? Faced with the potential failure of her money-pit cable network OWN, Winfrey is working the phones hard to secure big-name interviews for her show, Oprahs Next Chapter. Back-to-back episodes last Sunday featured the Kardashian family and rapper 50 Cent, and the Kardashians will be back this weekend. Michael Jacksons daughter Paris and the late Whitney Houstons family made news with their interviews in recent weeks. The open question is whether she can have the same cultural impact on a smaller stage. Winfreys daytime talk show was generally seen by around 6 million people in her final years; Oprahs Next Chapter with the Kardashians was seen by 1.1 million viewers, according to the Nielsen company. I am sure that people have a conversation about that when they are exploring their options, said Sheri Salata, OWN president. The one constant we have ... is that you have the opportunity to sit down with Oprah. Winfreys daytime show wasnt all about interviews, of course. But in her last few seasons, she sat down for conversations with the likes of Tina Fey, Elizabeth Edwards, Michelle Obama, Madonna, Denzel Washington, Jerry Seinfeld, Richard Branson and Beyonce. The audience was primarily women but, as Cruise proved with his eager declarations of love for Katie Holmes in 2005, the cultural impact could spread beyond the afternoon. Doing an interview on one of those shows was like Johnny Carson asking you to come sit with him after youve done your standup, said Robert Thompson, director of the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture at Syracuse University. If there was any equivalent to playing the Palace at the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries, being on Oprah might have been it. While Thompson said that half the people cant find OWN on their cable television, that may underestimate Winfrey. The Oprahs Next Chapter episode with Houstons family in March premiered to 3.5 million people, Nielsen said. Many others heard about it or saw clips. Winfreys presence in daytime was a mixed blessing for veteran Hollywood publicist Howard Bragman. Most of his clients wanted to be on Oprah and were convinced they had a story she wanted to hear. When they did, it was great. When they didnt, not so great. It was a ton of pressure, he said, and theres a part of me that is happy the pressure has lifted. Now he can suggest a media strategy with interviewers who can reach his clients target audiences. Bragman often goes retro, preferring the news divisions at broadcast television networks. Ellen DeGeneres is prob-

note. However, I hope that I will be able to say that I cared. There has been love in my heart. The defense said the longwinded letters were simply the manifestation of a personality disorder characterized by excessive emotionality and attention seeking. Two people who prosecutors say were sexually abused by Sandusky havent been identified. McQuearys testimony is the basis for charges involving one of those alleged victims. It was also McQuearys testimony that touched off the massive scandal that rocked Penn State and forced a re-examination of the role of college administrators in reporting abuse allegations. Sandusky has denied the allegations, but did not testify in his own defense. Jurors are aware, however, of the denials he gave Rock Center just after his arrest. In it, Sandusky seemed to stumble at times and struggled to give direct answers to questions about his conduct.

Ranger killed in climbers rescue

LONGMIRE, Wash. (AP) A Mount Rainier ranger slid more than 3,000 feet to his death as he helped in efforts to rescue four injured climbers who fell on a glacier, a National Park Service spokesman said. Ranger Nick Hall was helping prepare the climbers to be taken from the 14,411foot Washington state peak when he fell shortly before 5 p.m. Thursday, spokesman Kevin Bacher said. The 34-year-old Hall didnt respond to attempts to contact him and wasnt moving, and he was dead when other rangers finally reached him at the 10,000-foot level several hours later, Bacher said. Park officials notified relatives and other rangers before announcing Halls death late Thursday. A Chinook helicopter from Joint Base LewisMcChord plucked three of the injured climbers off the Cascade Range mountain Thursday night while one member of the party from Waco, Texas, remained overnight, waiting out a worsening storm in the company of park rangers. Bacher said all four had injuries that werent lifethreatening. None was immediately identified.

Moodys lowers credit ratings on banks

NEW YORK (AP) Moodys Investors Service has lowered the credit ratings on some of the worlds biggest banks, including Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs, reflecting concern over their exposure to the violent swings in global financial markets. The downgrades late Thursday ultimately are a measure of Moodys view on the ability of the banks to repay their debts. The ratings agency also cut its ratings on Barclays, Deutsche Bank and HSBC, some of the largest banks in Europe, a region fighting to contain a government debt crisis. The banks have significant exposure to the volatility and risk of outsized losses inherent to capital markets activities, Moodys global banking managing director Greg Bauer said in a statement outlining the rational for the downgrades. The behemoth banks are all major players in the global stock and bond markets, which have become extremely volatile. However, Bauer noted that some of the banks,

ably the leading personality in daytime now, but her show is about entertainment. Dr. Phil and Anderson Cooper get some interviews, as does The View and The Talk. None has the impact that Winfrey had on a consistent basis, said Bill Carroll, an expert in the syndication market for Katz Media. Also missing from the scene is CNNs Larry King, who didnt have the same juice as Winfrey but had a friendly reputation that made him a popular stop for people with hard stories to tell. Kings replacement, Piers Morgan, is not as established and is dragged down by CNNs ratings problems. Katie Couric, whose daytime talk show starts in the fall, could be Winfreys true heir as an interviewer in daytime. Her lengthy tenure at NBCs Today show makes her able to deftly switch from world leaders to actors to quirky celebrities enjoying 15 minutes of fame. Not many people can do that, Bragman said. First things first, however. Couric needs to build a show and prove that people want to watch her. Establishing booking superiority before Couric starts could benefit Winfrey.

Worsening visibility and 40 mph winds kept rescuers from removing all four climbers late Thursday. Storms on Mount Rainier are notoriously fierce and obstinate. About 10,000 people attempt to summit the massive volcano each year, with most doing so in the summer. The Texas climbers were roped together when they fell on Emmons Glacier on Thursday. The two women at the end of the rope ended up in a crevasse. Rangers who responded to a cellphone call helped them out. Hall is originally from Patten, Maine, the park spokesman said. He had been with Mount Rainier National Parks climbing program for four years. His death comes during what has proved to be a very difficult year for park staff. On New Years Day, ranger Margaret Anderson was fatally shot as she tried to stop a man who drove through a tire chain checkpoint near Longmire. The 24-year-old man, Benjamin Colton Barnes, was suspected in a shooting early New Years Day in Seattle, and his body was found the next day about a mile away in the snow.

including JPMorgan Chase and HSBC, have reliable buffers in more stable businesses that could act as shock absorbers during a crisis. Moodys had said in February that it was considering downgrading the ratings of major banks in the U.S. and in Europe. A downgrade usually means banks will have to pay more for its debt. Investors demand higher interest for riskier debt, which is what the downgrades represent. However, with interest rates already at rock-bottom levels, the lower ratings may not significantly affect the cost of funding for the banks. The stock market has also priced in any negative impact from the ratings downgrades, according to Bert Ely, a banking consultant in the Washington, D.C. area. Theyve been telegraphing this thing for months, he said. In a sign that investors were taking the news in stride, stocks of major U.S. banks rose in afterhours trading. Moodys made its announcement after regular stock trading had closed.
