Red Huber/Orlando SentineVMCT S~a~e Shuttle Atlantis, STS-132, lands for the last time at the Kennedy Space Center after completing it's last m1ss1on, Wednesday. • Shuttle Atlantis.completest 32nd and final flight i B Y MARCIA DUNN ASSOCIATED PRESS CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - How would you look after 120 million miles? Atlantis might appear a little scuffed up to outsiders as it heads into retirement after a quartercentury of spaceflight. But to the trained eyes of NASA engineers, the ship is still_in its primea fact that adds to wistful emotions at the space agency as the shuttle program winds down. Atlantis returned home from its 32nd and final voyage Wednesday, the first of three shuttles that are closing out their flying careers and eventually heading to museums. "The legacy of Atlantis, now in the history books," Mission Control announced at touchdown. About 1 ,200 guests lined the Kennedy Space Center runway to watch the shuttle glide through a clear monting sky to a flawless landing at the end of a 12-day journey. NASA employees wore white ribbons with the name "Atlantis" and the shuttle's picture embossed in gold. Even the lead flight directors came in from Houston for the occasion. "That was pretty sweet," Mission Control radioed after Atlantis came to a stop on the runway. "That was a suiting end to an incredible mission." · Only two shuttle flights remain .- by Discovery and Endeavour - before the entire fleet is retired. Baning a reprieve from the White House, Atlantis will stand by as a rescue ship for the very last shuttle flight, then take off for a museum somewhere. The shuttle came back "really, really clean," with just a couple of dings in its thermal shielding, said NASA officials who were out on the runway with Atlantis' beaming crew and shuttle workers. "It's just a beautiful machine to see out on the runway, and we got to see it up close and personal again today," observed launch director Mike Leinbach. "I'm going to hate to see that go away." Before the 2003 Columbia disaster, shuttles regularly landed with hundreds of nicks and even gouges. Redesigned fuel tanks took care of that problem. Launch manager Mike Moses noted how often NASA officials now describe a just-returned shuttle as "one of the cleanest we've ever seen." "That's actually the truth. Each one is just getting better and· better," he said. The hodgepodge of old and new thermal tiles, combined with the rigors of launch and the heat of re-entry, might make the shuttles appear shabbier than they really are. Pilot Dominic "Tony" Antonelli said Atlantis looked "just absolutely fabulous" after logging so many miles. "It's a shame," he said, that the shuttle may not fly again. "She is so ready to get stacked and back out to pad," the launch Antonelli said. Atlantis - the fourth to fly in NASA's shuttle series - is ending its run after spending a total of 294 days in orbit and circling Earth 4,648 times. It has carried 189 astronauts and visited the Space International Station 11 times. It also flew seven times to Russia's old Mir station and once to the Hubble Space Telescope. The shuttle added another 4.8 million miles during its just-completed trip to the space station, for a grand total of 120,650,907 miles over 'its lifetime. The 120 millionth mile was logged shortly after midnight. Atlantis' six-man crew installed a Russian compartment, six fresh batteries and an extra antenna at the space station. As a tribute to their ship, the astronauts flew a small U.S. flag that accompanied Atlantis into orbit on its maiden voyage in 1985, as well as a couple qf tool bins full of shuttle mementos.

But I worry so much about his future - how he will make a living and how he will find a girl. But I don't want my worries to overcome him, or me.- J.S. Dear J.S.: You have a long row to hoe, but you also have some time. And because your son is so young. he will have plenty of opportunity to prepare h~mself with the skills he will need to live his life as fully as he wants to while taking his future restrictions into account. It is a sad thing for you to have to witness, undoubtedly. But for his sake, you must carry on without dissolving in tears or treating him with pity. Your · is even more important now than ever. as mother, and it wouldn't be a good idea to the next years falling apart in front of his when he is being so brave. So get yourself some counseling if you need it. and I advise taking advantage of all the services that will be available for your son and your family, as provided by organizations that help families cope with blindness. They will be an invaluable resource. and both of you may make some important friends there. It is unreasonable to expect your son to carry this everheavy burden by himself or in the same way he is facing it now. He will have times when he is scared, depressed or otherwise challenged, and he shouldn't feel he has to take care of his mother as well as himself when it comes to handling his emotions. So do all you can to take that burden off of him. If you have to set aside some alone time to go somewhere and cry. do it. But save the broken heart for your private time . rnrn .....,: ••• Dear Dr. Brothers: My 12-year-old daugh- ter loves animals but doesn't seem to under~ stand all the care that goes into keeping a pet. She wants a puppy, but she couldn't even handle the responsibility of having a fish. The poor thing died because she never fed it. I want to teach her how to be responsible, but I don't to put a dog's life on the line. I also don't to wind up taking full care of the pooch yself! Where can I find the balance? - A.H. Dear A.H.: This is the age-old problem: Almost all kids wants pets, but they don't want or can't handle the responsibility that goes along with pet ownership. Mom and Dad don't want to deprive them of the opportunity to have a companion animal - it's part of the great American family dream, after aiL along with that white picket fence and the apple pie. But the reality of the situation usually stinks, unless the parents are gung-ho to be taking care of a dog. And not that many have the time and energy to help the child in this new role without resorting to a lot of nagging, yelling and eventual defeat. Unfortunately, the one who suffers most usually is the dog or cat. who is let OJlt the back door or taken to the animal shelter. But things don't have to be this way! If your child really is old enough to take on this job. she will agree to learn about what is required in dog care, and help you make a chart showing the chores and who is assigned to them or who has volunteered. You can discontinue this after it becomes routine (if it does), but your daughter is old enough to be held to her word and to understand the consequence~ if she falls short. If she won't agree to this kind of system in advance, she doesn't want to be held accountable. I wouldn't take a chance on her right now. if she can start out with some pet-sitting for bors. for a taste of what's in store.

This past week. the Ohio S~nate passed impo1tant, bipattisan legislation that expands eligibility under the program to give more Ohioans the freedom to choose what healthcare setting is right for them. I led the effort to establish the Home First program in 2005 to allow individuals in nursing facilities, who are Medicaid-eligible, to enroll in PASSPORT and return to their homes. Then. in 2008, the General Assembly approved a proposal to expand the program to include patients in nursing homes who are on a waiting list for Ohio's Assisted Li' ing Waiver program. Studies have consistently shown that a large majority of Ohio consumers would prefer to age in their homes. and at a time when Ohio leaders are working with very limited resources, home and community-based care is a smart. fiscally-responsible investment for the state.

State Senator Dale Miller (DCleveland) and l sponsored similar legislation - Senate Bill 214 - last November, which was approved by the Senate Finance & Financial Institutions Committee 11-0 earlier this year. The genesis of both bills came from a conversation with Gallia County resident, Pam Matura, who is the Executive Director of the Area Agency on Aging District '7 based in Rio Grande.

JUSt before a chief master sergeant had sex with her in his oftice at WrightPatterson Air Force Base. The woman said she didn't fight back or scream because she was stunned. dazed and feared the power and influence of 27.-year veteran William Gurney, who was the top-ranking enlisted man at the Air Force Materiel Command at the base near Dayton. "I was just afraid. He's a powerful man,'' she said. adding: "I was in the office of the command chief. I -was scared." Gurney's attorney said the woman, a master sergeant, only recently said for the first time she had sex against her will, after making earlier sworn statements. Maj. Gv.cndol)n Bettz. assigned by the Air Force to come from her Charleston, S.C. base to lead Gurney's defense, repeatedly asked the woman whether Gurney had used any threat, force or restraint as they had sex. The woman. a master sergeant, responded that he hadn't. She said the encounter last year began \\hen she stopped by his office at lunchtime and they began kissing. He took off his shirt and began taking off her blouse. she said. "l just kept telling him no," she said. then testified she wasn't sure how her clothes were removed or how she wound up ha\'ing sex with Gurney against a table. "I really don't remember. I didn't want to have sex with him," the woman said. The Associated Press is not naming the woman. Wednesday was the first day of a hearing into charges that Gurney sexually harassed mne female subordinates. A military judge is presiding and will help decide whether the charges will go forward. Prosecutors said at the bcginnint? of the hearing in a mihtary courtroom on the base that they would present testmony about more allegations that could lead to new charges, including sexual assault. Allegations involving a lOth female airman were dropped before the hearing, without public explanation. Beitz suggested that the master sergeant had changed her story last month after being faced with telling her husband she could be demoted or have other punishment for having an extramarital affa1r. Gurney also is married. Beitz also had the woman, under questioning, detail earlier flirtations with Gurney and kissing him in both h1s and her offtces. Asked why she had continued flirting witt1 Gurney after the sex·ual encounter. she replied: "He was still the chief." The current charges being heard by Chief Regional Military Judge Col. Michael O'Sullivan include extramarital relations. inappropriate touching, and sending sexually oriented text messages. The judge will file a report on his findings and make a recommendation, expected to come several weeks from now. The hearing could last two or three days. Another witness. a technical sergeant at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, testified to having an extramarital affair with Gurney. She said during the affair, he sent her photos that showed him nude and scminude. while she sent him photos of herself topless and nude. And a staff sergeant testified she began sending Gurney "provocative'' photos of herself after he a-;ked her about where she had tattoos. She said he had his hands inside her pants during one meeting hut removed them when she told him to stop. She testified she thought Gurney could potentially help her career. Gurney has not commented publicly on the charges. · He was assigned to a desk job last November. He could face court-martial proceedings, administrative punishment or could see the charges dropped. Gurney transferred to Wright-Patterson in 2008 from Hill Air Force Ba se in Utah, where he was command chief of the Ogden Air Logistics Cen ter and 75th Air Base Wing. Aborted sting at official· residenc·e dogs Ohio gov. B Y J ULIE C ARR S MYTH ASSOCIATED PRESS COLUMBUS While the governor entertained John Glenn at his official residence in a posh suburb, law enforcers planned to descend on a supplier of contraband tobacco skulking around the perimeter in an attempt to drop goods to a prison inmate working there. It was a scene Gov. Ted Strickland's handlers just couldn't fathom. When they pieced together the scenario looming that January weekend, they called off the sting in a flurry that's since been described by legislator~ as a ''cluster" of such confusion it rivaled "Hogan's Heroes." The public safety director in charge that wee~nd lost her job Tuesday at the hands of the Republicanled state Senate, but the fallout is far from over for Strickland, a Democrat seeking re-election in a close!y watched contest against former GOP Congressman John Kasich. A state inspector general's investigation found that the now-ousted director. Cathy CollinsTaylor. obstructed the probe and lied under oath. Though CollinsTaylor vigorously fought the findings, they had already made it by the end of last week into an anti-Strickland commercial produced by the Republican Governors Association. Investigators found Strickland played no role in the winter weekend's decision-making. But their report concluded Collins-Taylor called off the sting to protect him from political embarrass- ment. not to protect his safety. as they had claimed. The case has been forwarded to prosecutors for a possible follow-up. It remains to be seen whether the scandal will stick to Strickland, whose popularity has already suffered amid histone jobless rates, but governors are among the most \'ulnerable of Democratic incumbents thts year, said Seth Masket, a political science professor at the University of Denver who follows issues surrounding governors. "In the last two years. you had substantial do"" ntums in just about all states. Governors are having to do more with less. and they're being blamed not only for the economic hard times, but for the cuts they've had to make in areas like education and social safety net services," he said. "Throw in a scandal? It's difficult to say." The inmate-worker program was begun almost a half-century before Strickland took office in 2007 and allows low-risk inmates nearing release to perform tasks such as tending gardens, handling minor maintenance and staffing state dinners. A probe by Inspector General Tom Charles after the aborted raid found the inmates working at the home had ready access to hand tools such as knives, axes and chain saws and relatively free rein at the governor's 3acre property in Bexley, a Columbus suburb with million-dollar homes. That mobility contributed to the problem with tobacco contraband, the report found. Loose leaf tobacco has cally rejected.

Around Ohio • Text scam targets welfare recipients COLUMBUS (AP) Authonties are warning of a new scam preying on needy Ohioans who receive assistance payments from the state through debit cards. Attorney General Richard Cordray sa) s some welfare recipients have received text messages telling them their cards have been frozen. The scam's targets are instructed to call a phone number, where they're prompted to enter account and PIN numbers. Cordray says doing so opens the door to fraud. He says consumers should never provide private account information to unidentified sources. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services says it does not text or call assistance recipients asking for personal information. Cordruy says he has received 10 complaints about this scam, primarily from central and southern Ohio.

Ohio has most stimulus-funded water projects COLUMBLS (AP) A review by federal officials says Ohio has more stimulus-funded projects involving clean water and drinking water than any other state. The report released Wednesday by the G o \' e r n m e n 2010 t Accountability Office says the state ·s Environmental Protection Agency has funded 336 water projects using about $281 million in stimulus money. Of the projects, 118 met a "green reserve" requirement, including installation of a turbine that converts methane gas into electricity at a wastewater treatment plant. The report also says the Ohio Department of Transportation was able to fund an additional 51 projects with its $936 million stimulus allocation because bids have a\'eraged about I 0 percent below the state's cost estimates.

Thursday, May 2 7, 201 ~ Guillen rips um.P after Whitej Sox top Indians 5-4 CLEVELAND (AP) - Ozzie Guillen wasn't on the ftloid hJnt •ugh to tell • Joe West how he felt about his balk calls against Mark Buehrle. The White Sox manager did so afterward. Harshly. . The fiery Guillen, never afraid to speak his mind on any subject, unloaded on West following Chicago's 5-4 win over the Cleveland Indians on Wednesday, a game that included the ejections of both Guillen and Buehrle for protesting a pair of balks in the first three innings. Guillen didn't back in a profaneattack on West. "Joe has been like that for a lot of years, and he's always going to be like this," Guillen said, dropping several expletives throughout a rant that's certain to get a look from Major League Ba~eball. ''I'm not gomg to change it, nobody is going to change it, but sometimes he thinks people pay to watch him umpire. He's the type o'f guy that wants to control the game, and to me is one of the best umpires in the game, no doubt. "But in the meanwhile, those years are on his shoulders and kind of heavy and showing people who he is. I deserve respect and the players deserve respect here, too." Buehrle's ejection in the third didn't rattle the White Sox, who regrouped after losing him and survived a scary ninth by closer Bobby Jenks to win their first road series this .season. Mark Kotsay hit a tworun homer off Jake Westbrook (2-3) and Mark Teahen drove in two runs as Chicago took two of three from the last-place Indians, who had a season-high four errors. Jenk:s nearly blew a 5-1 lead, allowing Cleveland to score three runs before striking out Austin Keams with the bases loaded and getting Russell Branyan to fly out. White Sox reliever Tony Pena ( 1-1), summoned in the fourth after Randy Williams left with an apparent foot injury, worked foor scoreless innings. Buehrle didn't make it out of the third, one inning longer tflan Guillen lasted. Both were tossed by West, who felt two of the lefty's pickoff moves were illegal. Matt LaPorta was on first in the second when West called the first balk on Bu,ehrle, who didn't like the decision and had words with West, a 32year veteran with a reputation for being confrontational. Guillen came out to defend his pitcher and West gave him a minute to plead his case before throwing out Guillen, who dropped his sunglasses. lineup card and other items on the track before heading into the dugout. Guillen said he was more upset with West's treatment of Buehrle th~m his ruling. "I went out to ask him why he's embarrassing Buehrle and he give me one of this," Guillen said, waving his hand dismissively. "When you're a professional and you have to respect the managers, the way we're supposed to respect the umpires, they are supposed to respect back. "Obviously they have more power than we have and we have to wear it every time that happens. ... I don't think he has the right and the power to let people know who is the chief on the field.'' West said Guillen never mentioned anything about showing up Buehrle. "He didn't say that to me," West told The Associated Press while having his postgame meal. "I don't know what he's talking about. Ozzie came out because Buehrle was making gestures on the mound that could have got him kicked out so he was protecting Buehrle, that's all he was doing. I don't have a problem with that." In the third, Buehrle gave up an infield sing!! to Jason Donald, an with Trevor Crowe up, h was called for a second balk. This time. Buehrl~ flipped his glove off and was immediately ejected b> West, who stood w his arms folded near first-base line. Buehrle tried to get the ump and had to restrained. "Once I got tossed 1 wanted to go say a few words and try to get my money's worth and just kind of find out what did I do wrong to balk?" Buehrle said. "I think he's too worried about p~:omoting his CD (West is a country music singet and song writer with hi~ own website) and I think he likes seeing his namo in the papers a little bit too much instead of worrying about the rules. "I'd like to find out what he called a balk 04 me. Your knee can crod over the rubber. I know your foot can't and I did n 't do that. I watched the replays trying to see what it was called a balk and . have still have yet to se what I did." West said Buehrl~ balked both times. "He has a couple of really good moves and those two were both balks. so I called them," ;J. he said. Indians manage( Manny Acta didn't want any part of the We~t· Guillen battle.
