The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution £,ELL B1L~~ - TOI)AY IN HISTORY • (; ' Today is Tuesday, May 11, the 131 st day of 2010. There are 234 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On May 11, 1910, Glacier National Park in Montana was established. On this date: In 1502, Christopher Columbus left Cadiz, Spain, on his fourth and final trip to the Western Hemisphere. In 1647, Peter Stuyvesant arrived in New Amsterdam to become governor of New Netherland. In 1858, Minnesota became the 32nd state of the Union. In 1935, the Rural Electrification Administration was created as one of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs. In 1946, the first CARE packages arrived in Europe, at Le Havre, France. In 1950, President Harry S. Truman formally dedicated the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington state. In 1960, in the wake of the U-2 incident, President Dwight D. Eisenhower defended intelligence-gathering activities as "distasteful" but necessary, saying "no one wants another Pearl · Harbor." In 1973, charges against Daniel Ellsberg for his role in the "Pentagon Papers" case were dismissed by Judge William M. Byrne, who cited government misconduct. In 1985, 56 people died when a flash fire swept a jam-packed soccer stadium in Bradford, England. In 1996, an Atlanta-bound ValuJet DC:9 caught fire shortly after takeoff from Miami and crashed into the Florida Everglades, killing all 11 0 people on board . Ten years ago: Pope John Paul II named Bishop Edward M. Egan of Bridgeport, Conn. the new head of the New York archdiocese, succeeding the late Cardinal John O'Connor. Five years ago: More than 1.000 demonstrators rioted and threw stones at a U.S. military convoy in Afghanistan as protests spread over a Newsweek report that interrogators had desecrated Islam's holy book at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay. (Newsweek later retracted the story.) One year ago: Defense Secretary Robert Gates named Lt. Gen. Stanley McChrystal the top military commander in Afghanistan, replacing Gen. David McKiernan. Five U.S. troops were shot and killed at a mental health clinic on a Baghdad base; the shooting suspect, Sgt. John M. Russell, is awaiting trial. American journalist Roxana Saberi, imprisoned on espionage charges in Iran for four months, was freed. President Barack Obama met at the White House with representatives of the health care industry who promised to cut $2 trillion in costs over 10 years. Thought for Today: "No idea is so antiquated that It was not once modern. No idea is so modern that it will not someday be antiquated." Ellen Glasgow, American author (1874-1945).

When regimes reach insanity BY DR. MARVIN FOLKERTSMA CENTER FOR VISION & VALUES On August 25. 1914. in a spate of disorder. shots rang out from the Belgian town of Lou,ain. instigating its Gennan occupiers to launch a freni) of looting and destruction. Cra;ed soldiers butchered civilians. ransacked buildings, and finally burned the town to the ground. including it~ magnificent and irreplaceable library. The Kaher\ truculent commanders were convinced that Belgian citizens had been ordered to resist by those "above" them; that b, by a malevolent cabal of goven1ment officials, local burgomasters, and priests. all devoted to a bloodthirsty campaign of resistance. In Barbara Tuchman ·s words. "that people could he animated to stop the irn ader \\ ithout an order from 'abO\e' was inconcehable."' Further. "the Gem1ans saw these nrders e\ en where. [General! von Kluck claimed that the Belgian government's posters warning its cititens against hostile acts were actually 'incitements to the civil population to fire on the cnem)."" The plain meaning of -.uch words was irr·elevant, which meant that Belgian citizens were perfidious murderers acting on their superiors· orders to kill Germans. This is the per-.pecttve of a regime that had gone insane. one whose theory of terror in warfare had clearly put it outside the community of civilited nations. Indeed.

Kaiser Wilhelm's Empire and the Third Reich both perpetrated acts of unspeakable insamty. The relevance of Germany\ experience to contemporar) politics perhaps becomes clearer with an understandil)g of what a regime is. A regime is a complex 'Of institutions. personnel. and practices commiued to the preseivation of a ruling ideology.

(AP) - Dallas Braden d~finitely owns the mound now. Braden pitched the 19th perfect game in major league history on Sunday, shutting down the majors' hottest team and leading the Oakland Athletics to a 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. Braden threw his arms in the air after Gabe. Kapler grounded out to shortstop for the final out, his simmering feud with Yankees star Alex Rodriguez merely a footnote to the first perfect game for Oakland in 42 years. The closest the Rays got to a hit was Jason Bartlett's liner to third leading off the game. Evan Longoria tried to bunt leading off the fifth. drawing boos from the small crowd. "Pretty cool," Braden said. "I don't know what to think about it just yet. There's definitely a select group. I'd like to have a career more than today." gem, Before this Braden was best known for his enraged reaction to Rodriguez walking across the mound on April 22. Still angry after the game, he told the slugger "to go do laps in the bullpen" if he wanted to traipse across a mound. The squabble was still simmering last week. On Friday in Boston, Rodriguez said he didn't want to extend Braden's "extra 15 minutes of fame." A-Rod struck a far more conciliatory tone Sunday. "I've learned in my career that it's always better to be remembered for some of the good things you do on the field, and good for him," Rodriguez said before facing Boston. "He threw a perfect game. And, even better, he beat the Rays." That said, Braden's grandmother may have gotten the last word: "Let's forget it, uh huh - and stick it, A-Rod," said a chuckling Peggy Lindsey, who was in the stands watching. After the Yankees' 9-3 loss at Boston, E.odriguez was told a comment - presumably referring to Lindsey's remark - was made following Braden's perfect game. "Uncle. No more guys," Rodriguez said. Asked about it later in a different way, he said: Oakland Athletics' Dallas Braden, facing, celebrates his perfectgame victory over the Bay Rays with teammates in the ninth inning of a Major League ..___ _ _, Baseball game, Sunday, at OaklandAlameda County Coliseum in Oakland, California. The A's won, 4-0. D. Ross Cameron/ Contra Costa Tlmes/MCT "Uncle. Uncle ." And then, Rodrigu~z walked away. This was the majors' first perfect game since Mark Buehrle did it for the White . Sox against the Rays on July 23, and the second no-hitter this season after Colorado's Ubaldo Jimenez accomplished it in Atlanta on April17. "I'm a bad omen. That's the third perfect game and fourth no-hitter I've been on the wrong side of," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "When Kenny Rogers threw his I was the bullpen coach. If you want to see another one, just follow me around." Braden pitched the A's first perfect game since Hall of Farner Jim "Catfish" Hunter's gem on May 8, 1968, against the Minnesota Twins. Only 6,298 were there to witness it. Sunday's crowd at the Coliseum wasn't much better: 12.228. Braden (4-2) wasn't fazed by anything, locating his fastball in every spot, throwing two-strike changeups and getting quick outs against a Rays team that lost on the road for just the third time this year. He struck out six in the improbable 109-pitch performance, throwing 77 strikes in his 53rd career start and first complete game. Braden's teammates mobbed him when the Mother's Day masterpiece was over, leaving bats and gloves scattered on the field. The left- bander pointed to the sky in honor of his single mom, Jodie Atwood, who died of skin cancer when he was a high school senior. He shared a long and tearful hug with Lindsey, who helped raise him. in front of the dugout. "It hasn't been a joyous day for me in a while," Braden. said. "With my grandma in the stands, it makes it a lot better." Braden's perfect game was the sixth no-hitter in Oakland history. The 26year-old Braden, a native of nearby Stockton, was a 24th-round draft pick by the A's in 2004. He improved his career record to 18-23. "Little League, I ·got a couple of them under my belt," Braden said. "ln the bullpen, I'm damn near perfect every day." His grandmother gets the game ball, the Stockton Hall of Fame everything else. Dozens of supporters from Stockton packed the Coliseum's Section 209 - the number of their. area code. Last Mother's Day, Braden was hit by a line drive by Vernon Wells. "You know, a year later you don't expect anything like this," he said. "I'm just happy to be putting on the costume a year later." The A's defense didn't even have to make a really tough play in fair territory. Third baseman Kevin Kouzmanoff sprinted to the dirt in front of Oakland's dugout to catch a foul popup by Dioner Navarro for the second out in the sixth. Kapler then fouled out on a 12-pitch at-bat oA another ball caught b~ Kouzmanoff. Navarro fouled off five straight pitches before the popup. , In the eighth, Kouzmanoff went down the dugout steps to snare Carlos Pena's foul. "I told him he needs to quit stealing my thunder," Braden said. "He makes tidiculous plays." Landon Powell - who caught the game with regular catcher Kurt Suzuki injured Kouzmanoff and Ryan Sweeney each singled in runs for the A's, who added two unearned runs in the fourth after catcher Navarro's throwing error. This was even a first for longtime umpire Jim Wolf, who worked home plate. "You do get caught u~ in it a little bit," sa· Wolf, who watche younger brother Randy · throw a perfect game and no-hitter as a highschooler. James Shields ( 4-1) failed to beat the A's for the second time in 12 days after striking out 12 in a 10-3 win April 28. NOTES: The A's last no-hitter was by Dave Stewart on June 29, 1990, at Toronto. ... Maddon is open to the idea of Longoria playing every day this season. "I'm not opposed to it," Maddon said. "We'll look at it. If he's well, I believe he's capable of all the games." TUESDAY TELEVISION GUIDE 10 11 12 MORE LOCAL 1 NEWS.
