Patrol major: Strickland stopped inmate review COLUMBUS (AP) ~ Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland stopped a review of how inmates were supervised at the governor's residence in 2008, saying things were to stay exactly the same, according to records of comments a top highway patrol officer made to a state watchdog. Strickland says he mistakenly believed the review was proposing an end to the program under which inmates work at the house and so spoke forcefully in favor of the practice. Patrol officials and others were at the governor's residence talking about better ways to supervise inmates when Strickland learned of the meeting as he was being deiven to his Statehouse office, according to an Associated Press review of an interview with investigators by retired patrol Maj. Robert Booker. The meeting was held after an inmate suspected of drinking tripped, fell through a window and cut his arm. No guards were present and no patrol officers available to help. The review studied options for responding to such emergencies in the future and never involved ending the inmate program, prisons spokeswoman Julie Walburn said Monday. All investigation later determined the inmate i1a\ln't been drinking. Inmates have done a variety of jobs at the gov- ernor 's residemce in suburban Bexley going back decades, under both Democrats and Republicans. After learning that the meeting involved the inmate work program. Strickland turned around, came back to the residence and told officials gathered at the house how important the program was, according to Booker's interview. As Strickland left again, Booker met with him and tried to explain the context of the conversation. "I says, 'Governor. we were talking about security issues in regards to supervision of inmates.' He said , 'Well, I think the program should stay exactly the way it is."' Booker then went back into the meeting and said things would stay the same, his interview said. He declined to comment Monday. Strickland thought the meeting's purpose was to discuss the future of the entire inmate program, spokeswoman Amanda Wurst said Monday. "That's why it was important to him to go in and say the rehabilitation program was important," she said. A report by the state watchdog last week said high-ranking public safety officials called off a valid contraband sting at the residence in January to avoid embarrassing the governor, who was hosting former U.S. Sen. John Glenn and his wife at a dinner that night. The operation allegedly involved someoqe dropping contraband, tobacco or drugs, at the residence to be picked up later by an inmate and delivered to Pickaway Correctional Institution south of Columbus. Strickland has said 'hat he believed 0fficials acted in good faith but that anything meant to spare him embarrassment was unnecessary. Booker, commander of the patrol's investigative services, was relieved of duty in January because of concerns about the sting, just days away from a scheduled retirement. The inspector general's report found extensive problems with the inmate program, saying it resulted in the residence becoming a "mule station" for the transfer of contraband. On Jan. 13, for example, a groundskeeper found 30 pouches of tobacco stashed in the drop ceiling of a basement bathroom in the residence, the report said. The report said the program had deteriorated since Strickland took office in 2007, with inmates often unsupervised and able to receive deliveries of contraband in broad •daylight outside the house in one of Columbus' most exclusive neighborhoods. Since news of the sting emerged, inmates no longer work unsupervised outside the gated perimeter 'of the house and patrol officers now regularly walk the perimeter. Both Snickland, a former prison psychologist, and his wife, Frances. were protective of the program and saw it as an important rehabilitative tool. according to the watchdog rep011 and several interviews reviewed by the AP. The Stricklands fired two staff members who oversaw the inmates because they felt they were too harsh with the prisoners. , They also brought back an inmate whose participation was canceled after staff members bought him steel-toe boots, which violates a prison ban on items that can be used as weapons. The Stricklands also allowed inmates - who were to be referred to as interns - to work inside the residence for the first time, and replaced a taxpayer-funded chef with an inmate chef. They also ended the practice of a visual check on inmates every 30 minutes, an 11 a.m. head count and a twice-monthly security check of where the inmates work. The governor also stopped requiring that ' prison supervisors carry a set of posters of inmates in case they escaped, and requiring that inmates wear uniforms with the words "DRC Inmate.'' "The Stricklands have made it very clear that they do not want their home run like a prison," Todd Rensi, resident manager for the residence, told investigators. .. AP source: Man tied to Pakistan sought' in NYC bomb J%:W YORK (AP) Authorities have identifiea the buyer of the SUV used in a failed Times Square terror attack and are seeking him as a potential suspect, two law enforcement officials said Monday. The buyer is a man of Pakistani descent who re;cently traveled to Pakistan. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is at a sensitive stage. The officials say the man is a Connecticut resident who paid cash weeks ago for the S UV parked in Times Square on Saturday and rigged with a crude propaneand-gasoline bomb. The car's last registered owner was questioned Sunday by investigators, and said he sold the 1993 Nissan Pathfinder to a man he did not know three weeks ago to a stranger, one official said. Officials say the owner. whose name has not been released, is not considered a suspect in the bomb scare. But the revelation of the sale Jed authorities one step closer to whomever was aiming for mass carnage on a busy Saturday night in the heart of Times Square and achieved only streets emptied for hours of thousands of tourists. York Police New Department spokesman Paul Browne confirmed • Monday that investigators had spoken to the registered owner. The vehicle identification number had been removed from Pathfinder's dashboard, but it was stamped on the engine, and investigators used it to ftnd the owner on record. "The discovery of the YIN on the engine block was pivotal in that it Jed to identifying the registered owner." Browne said. "It continues to pay dividends."

Dear P.B.: I have a study in front of me that might help you defend yourself if you feel you are being unfairly attacked. The research took place at New York University and involved brain scans of participants, ages 22 to 34. where the participants were asked to look· at pairs of images. then to remember how the original pairs were put together, while taking a break in between to think about whatever they chose. The MRis showed connectionmaking activity in the areas of the brain that are critical for me mol), and the scientists believe that taking a break from deliberate activity to let the mind wander might be a positive thing for establishing strong paths during contemplation. Some studies also have shown that those who are constantly bUS) especially those people we think of as aweinspiring multitaskers actually may be doing their brains a disservice for failing to take time to let things sink in. So. a flurry of constant activity isn't necessarily something to imitate, but there is a happy medium for you to contemplate. You really gain nothing by making your colleagues feel you are some . kind of slacker whether it is the truth or not. Your image and reputation are not something you want to mess with. So whlle you arc dreaming about what you would rather be doing, just make sure your work is getting done - don't give your colleagues something real to complain about! Or.

ThP Fir<;t Amcncfmpnt to the l.S. Constitution TOl)AY IN HISTORY Today is Tuesday, May 4, the 124th day of 2010. There are 241 days left in the year. · Today's Highlight in History: On May 4. 1970, Ohio National Guardsmen -opened fire during an anti-war protest at Kent State University, killing four students and wounding nine others. (Two of the students who died, Allison Krause and Jeffrey Miller, had been participating in -the demonstration while the other two, Sandra Scheuer and William Schroeder, were passersby .en route to their next classes.) On this date: In 1626. Dutch explorer Peter Minuit landed on present-day Manhattan Island. In 1886, at Haymarket Square in Chicago, a labor demonstration for an 8-hour work day turned .into a deadly riot when a bomb exploded. , In 1904, the United States took over construction of the Panama Canal. In 1916, responding to a demand from President Woodrow Wilson, Germany agreed to limit its submarine warfare. (However, Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare the following year.) In 1932, mobster AI Capone, convicted of income-tax evasion, entered the federal penitentiary in Atlanta. (Capone was later transferred to Alcatraz Island.) In 1945, during World War II, German forces in the Netherlands, Denmark and northwest Germany agreed to surrender. . In 1946, a two-day riot at Alcatraz prison in San Francisco Bay ended, the violence having claimed five ltves. In 1960, actress-comedian Lucille Ball divorced her husband, Desi Arnaz, after 20 years of marnage. In 1961, a group of "Freedom Riders" left Washington, D.C. for New Orleans to challenge ·racial segregation on interstate buses and in bus terminals.

Lynndie England's guilty plea to abusing Iraqi detainees at Abu Ghraib prison, saying he was not convinced the Army reservist knew her actions were wrong at the time. (England was later convicted in a court-martial and sentenced to three years in prison - she served half that t1me.) A suicide bombing at a police recruitment center in lrbil, Iraq, killed 60 people.

I- 95 high court needs regional diversity • BY MARK SHERMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS ' . Forget liberal vs. conservati\_e justices. The Supreme Court IS Wa) out of regional alignment: It\ heavily tilted tO\vard the '\lortheast corridor and could become even more so as President Barack Obama prepares to fill an upcoming vacancy. Five of the nine JUstices have strong ttes to Boston. New York and central New Jersey. Chief Justice John Roberts is a Midwesterner raised in Indiana, but he went to college and law school at Harvard and has spent his entire professional life in Washington. Even Justice Clarence Thomas. who stresses his Georgia roots. has lived and wo~rked in Washington since 1983. Eight justices have h y League law degrees. \\hich explains this joking response "hen a law student asked Roberts if too man) JUStices came from elite schools. No. the chief justice said. "Some went to Yale." The only non-lv) Leaguer. Justice John Paul Stevens, is leaving the court at the end of this term; he graduated from Northwestern. At least three of the known, serious candidatl!s to replace Chicago native Stevens fit the Northeastern profile: Solicitor General Elena Kagan, appeals court Judge Merrick Garland and Harvard Law School's dean, Martha Minow. Garland and Minow were born in Chicago. But, unlike Stevens. they studied, worked and lived on the East Coast as adults. Not since the Allegheny Mountains (ranging through Pennsylvania.

The "8" refers to the eight counties in the District Athens, Hocking, Meigs. Ml1nroe, Morgan. Noble, Perry and Washington. Leaders from Buckeye Hills and its Area Agency on Aging prov1ded annual updates on programs in the region before nearly 100 regional, state and federal agency representatives. "Over the past year, the Buckeye Hills staff has worked to secure financing totaling over $67 million for various projects that have had a positive impact on residential and commercial sectors," satd Misty Casto, Executive Director "These projects improve the quality of life for the people of the region. For ever>' one dollar in admmistration, Buckeye Hills leveraged nearly $109 in project dollars.·· As the liaison for Ohio Public Works, District 18 received Ohio Stimulus funding and submitted 46 projects totaling more than $19.4 million. The Public Works program also funded over $9 million for the region's roads, bridges, and water projects in its regular annual budget. As a key pnmary economic development tool serving small businesses in the region's rural areas, Buckeye Hills also maintains a Revolving Loan Fund Program (RLF) loan. The fund issued four loans for more than $645,000 with 26 jobs created and 21 retained. The program leveraged additional private and public investments of nearly $1.76 million. "As the annual report notes, the AAA8 network of providers delivered more than $11 million dollars of services across the region last year," said AAA8 Director Rick Hindman. "They served more than 210,000 home- delivered and congregate meals and provided homemaker and caregiver sef\ ices to meet the needs of our nearly 1,100 PASSPORT clients throughout the year." AAA8 also continued the Senior Farmers Market and expanded its Housing programs. In addition, the Area Agency on Aging launched a new look to its website and worked to formalize a cooperative for its rural health care providers. At the semi-annual meeting of the Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District new officers were elected. They are Ron Moore of Morgan County, president; Virgil Thompson of Noble County. vice president; and Sam cook of Washington County, treasurer. · Ohio to get $152M for health insurance pool COLUMBUS (AP) The state's ne'" high-risk insurance pool for people .,.. ith pre-existing health conditions will be the first test of whether Ohio can deliver on the promise of President Barack Obama 's vision for change, advocates for the uninsured said Monday. Oh10 was one of 27 states to notify the administration last week of its interest in running special high-risk insurance pools for people with diabetes, cancer or other health problems. The programs will be in place until 20 14 - when health insurance companies will no longer be allowed to deny coverage to people in poor health. The federal government will step in and run nsk pools in states that don't. set up their own. Obama's health care overhaul sets aside $5 billion for the program, with Ohio getting about $152 million to help subsidize, or pay for, part of a monthly insurance pre mmm. But it's unclear how affordable the insurance pool will be or how many Ohioans initially will be covered when it begins July 1. That depends on the way benefits are packaged and priced, said Cathy Levine, executive director of the Universal Health Care Action Network of Ohio. A 2005 feasibility study estimated that as many 17,250 Ohioans could be enrolled in a government high-risk pool with a premium set at $476 per month. Ohio, like other states, is wa1t1ng on federal guidelines to implement the program. That could come by the end of May. said Carly Glick, spokeswoman for the state Insurance Department. "Whatever the program ends up looking like. it has to be enough to provide adequate coverage that protects people from financial ruin," Levine said. Under the law, high-risk pools will be open to people who have been uninsured for at least six months. at a cost similar to what others pay.
