The Windy City's bid to hold a Summer Games for the first time moved to the international stage Saturday when the U.S. Olympic Committee capped a yearlong search for an American candidate for 20 16 by picking Chicago over two-time host Los Angeles. "It's just beginning," said Patrick Ryan, Chicago's bid committee chairman. "It's a long road." Having won over the USOC de spi te lacking venues ready for an Olympics, Chicago's task is to persuade t~e International Olympic Committee that it deserves 10 be the host, joining a group of bidders expected to include Madrid, Prague, Rome, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo. The IOC will award the 2016 Games in October 2009. "This contest ultimately is not about the economics, it's not about. the surplus. it 's about the magic that can be created through the Olympic and Paralympic games, and how that by itself can transform a city, can transform a nation, can transform the world," USOC chief executive officer Jim Scherr said. · "And so we look forward to trying to earn that prize." The USOC had. said beforehand it would not release Saturday 's vote count and stuck to that policy. . "It was a very tough decision,'' USOC c.hairman Peter Ueberroth said before opening a sealed eQ_velope and revealing the wmning city. "If I had all the power and sometimes people accuse me of that - I would take the map and merge the two cities, because I'll tell . you what: If you could take the mayors of these two communities and llave them run our country, we would all be better off." . Edge from Page Bl I against Chicago. With the wind howling through Jacobs Field making it feel much colder than the announce<! gametime temperature of 39 degrees, Sabathia's game plan was to · pound the inside corner. "It was cold," Sabathia said. "Guys kind of think twice about swinging when it's cold and you are coming in there." ., The Indians didn't fare much beuer in the biuer conditions against Chicago starter Jose Contreras ( 1-2) and ·four relievers, who combined to no-hit Cleveland ·after Sizemore's leadoff double. The last time the Indians won while getting one hit or less was on April 12. 1992, a 2-1 victory over Boston · when they were no-hit by Red Sox pitcher Matt Young. "That's not something you see every day," said Sizemore, who like Sabathia wore No. 42 to salute Robinson for breaking baseball's color barrier. "I don 't recall ever winning a game with just one hit." . Cleveland took advantage of three Chicago errors and some walks to take two of three against one of its AL Central rival s. Sabathia was lucky to escape the eighth with a 2-1 lea4. The White Sox got runners to first and third with two outs, when Rob Mackowiak hit a shot through the middle that caromed · off Sabathia 's hand and bounced directly to third base'lT!an Casey Blake, who picked it cleanly off the grass and threw out Mackowiak. Sabathia pumped his arm and screamed in delight before heading back to the dugout. "I was fired up," Sabathia ·Said. "It was a close game · and that was a big moment. That was the game right there."

' ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER WASHINGTON Senators postponed teslimony . by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales in the aftermath of Monday's deadly Virginia Tech shootings, delayin g hi s chance to defend contradictions about fired federal prosecutors that have taxed his credibility. Senate Judi ciary Chairman Patrick Leahy said the proceedings. initially set for Tuesday, would be inappropriate after the shootings in southwestern Virginia. He delayed Gonzales' appearance until Thursday. The Bush administrati on has pushed for Gonzales to tesufy as soon as posSible, . and the long-scheduled hearing is widely viewed as the attorney general's last chance to quiet a controversy that has prompted calls in both parties for his resignation. Gonzales has struggled fcir more than a month to clarify what he described as only a , limited involvement in the purge that Democrats believe was politically motivated. A group of conservative activists joined the choru s Monday, urging Gonzales. to step down · for having "debased honesty as The White House maintained its support for Gonzales. "I think the attorney general has been perfectly honest," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said Monday. And · Rep. Chris · Cannon, R-Utah, defended Gonzales from the political baCklash by noting, "This is a town ·or jerks." Gonzales accepts respon' ihi lity for some of the confusion . acknow ledgi ng in wrirten testi'mony "that at times I have been less than precise with my words when discussing the resignations." He also ordered the Justice Department to release niore than 5,700 pages of e-mails. schedules. memos and other documents to show that the firings were not improper. But his prepared remarks conflict with some details already released by the Justice Department and former aides. They include: · • Gonzales' statement that he became aware of the . process to replace U.S. attorneys "shortly after the 2004 election and soon after I became attorney general.'' However. a Jan. 9. 2005, email notes· a discussion of the topic "a couple of weeks ago" between Gonzales and ·his former top aide. Kyle Sampson. Gonzales ·was confirmed as attorney general on Feb. 3, 2005. • Gonzales' retollection that he received a few, brief updates ab.out the firing plans. "During those updates, to my knowledge, I did not make decisions about who should or should not be asked t<l' resign," he wrote. Sampson~ by contrast, told the - Senate Judiciary Committee on March 29 that he remembered discussions with Gonzales · regarding ''this process of asking certain U.S. attorneys to resign." • Gonzales' claim that he was not involved in selecting who would replace the targeted prosecutors. "I do not recall making any decision, either on or before December 7, 2006, aboui who should replace the U.S. attorneys who were asked to resign that day," he wrote. But the Justice documents include a January 2006 list of names compiled by Sampso!l · of · .·possible Justice replacements. spokesman Brian Roehrkasse has said those suggested replacements were merely proposals, and that none was selected before th~ prosecutors were told to resign.

Weekley followed the blunder with a 40-foot, par-saving chip to keep a one-stroke lead. But then Weekley had his troubles on Harbour Town's lighthouse hole, No. 18. He chipped across the green and into the fluffy rough down a short slope. Once again, Weekley's short game saved him, this time rolling it from 36 feet away'. "Unreal," Weekley said.

Russia's Lid1ya Grigoryeva captured the, women's race in 2:29:18.

This time, CheruiyGt held his arms to the side as he stepped over the slip-proof line 20 seconds ahead of Kwambai and blew a kiss to the crowd as he broke the tape. Kenya won its 15th men's title in the last 17 years and swept the top four positions.· Grigoryeva, who set the course record in Los Angeles last year, veered to the stands to srab a Russian flag just before crossmg the finish line to win by 40 seconds and claim her $100,000 first prize. · Grigoryeva, Latvia's Jelena Prokopcuka and Mexico's Madai Perez ran shoulder to shoulder into a headwind for much of the last nine miles before Perez and then Prokopcuka fell back as they crossed the Massachusetts Turnpike and headed into Kenmore Square with a mile to go ,. The weather was milder than forecasters had feared - 52 degrees with a moderate rain at the startand the sun even came out halfway through. But winds picked up as the runners turned onto Beacon Street m Cleveland Circle for the last, long homestretch to Copley Square. · The women ran together iri a lead pack of seven for the first half of th'e race before several, including JeptO<'I and top American Deena Kastor, began to fall behind.

Dealings you have with those who lack ' imagination and/or skills aren't apt to be too gainful. ' ARIES (March21 -April19) - ij you havo to· make a purchase of consequence, don't be hasty in what you buy and make CQrtnin you get &lCaclly what you want. You could have buyer's remorse down the line. TAURU S (April . 20-Mav 20) Disagreements within the household should be sented as promptly as possible, because therl! is a chance that , if fences aren't mended - immediately, something.small coutd get serious. GEMINI (May 21 -June 20)- Should you be spending sor'ne time with f'l person who recently did something you resented, don't hold a grudge. It'll cause you more pain than it does him or her. CANCER (June 2 1-July 22) - Review just how much time and money you may be spending on nonessential Hems and activities and adjust accordingly. Identify the culprits, and find ways to weed them out. LEO (Juiy 23-Aug. 22) - Objectives you set for yourself could easily be far too ambitious for you to han.dle. If this stiould turn out to be the case, it isn't a crime to give yourself more lime or ask for some help. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Being cautious is understandable, but carrying it to the point oPbeing just plain negative is destructive. Too .many self-doubts will keep you from being any good at anything. LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23)- Someone to whom you are obligated could be very concerned as to how you int end to handle the matter. Don't duck this person 's questions. but instead be totally honest and aboveboard . SCORPIO (Oct . 24-NO\I. 22 ) - If possi· ble. duck pessimistic associates as quickly as feasible. They are apt to have such a negative effect upon your outlook and affairs that you'll see only mud. t:~OI stars. SAGITTARIU S (Nov. 23-0ec . 21) What starts out to be an insignificant task could quickly turn into one gigantic undertaking, especially if your methods are slipshod. Plan your moves very carefull y before you swing that hammer. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Guard against a strong inclination to spend most of your time worrying about things that probably won't ever happen. A vivid imagination is goOO when it's positive, but not when it's negative. AQUARIUS (Jan. 2Q-Feb. 19) - Don't attempt to pln the blame on your mate if lhings do not come out tho way YOtJ thought they should. He or she might not be entirely innocent. IM then maybe you aren't, either. PISCES (Feb. 20·March 20) ....- In your concern about being able to salt your wares, there is a,. strong possibility you could be tempted to embentsh the facts.
