The Daily Sentinel A look at.the deal worked out on health care BY ERICA WERNER ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER ·· WASHINGTO:-.l - The White Hou~e, Democratic leaders and four fiscally conservative House lawmakers worked out a deal Wednesday to move ahead on sweeping health care legislation. The agreement would allow a committee vote, preserving momentum on President Barack Obama 's · top domestic priority. The deal calls for · exempting more small businesses from a requirement to offer coverage. trimming subsidies to help people buy health insurance, and making any government-sponsored insurance plan negotiate pay. ment rates with medical · providers - instead of dictating them. · The House Energy and Commerce Committee planned to begin work on the bill Thursday. Amendments to the legis.. lation would include provisions of the deal. The committee is the last of ·three in the House to act on the legislation. and· Chairman Henry Waxman, D-Calif., hoped to finish by Friday when lawmakers leave for their monthlong August recess. The House has put off a vote on the overall legislation until September. The deal gave momentum to the push for health care heading into the August recess, while saving face for all sides in the intraparty Democratic dispute over the legislation's size and scope. The White House, ·speaker Nancy Pelosi, D- · Calif., and Waxman praised the progress. The conservative to moderate Blue Dogs nead home without being blamed bv liberals for derailing · the effort. However, there was imme. diate backlash from House liberals to some provisions of the deal - particularly the reduction in subsidies and the change to the government-sponsored insur, ance plan. "The question is have we given up too much," -said Rep. Eliot Engel, ON .Y., a member of the Energy and Commerce Committee. Presuming Waxman gets the bill through his committee, all sides will have the summer to rethink their positions and plan for September. New cost estiby the mates Congressional Budget Office, lobbying by all sides on the issue and public opinion could change minds by the time lawmakers return. The Blue Dogs did not commit themselves to doing anything when the full House votes in several weeks. They could support the bjJl or, once again, oppose it en masse and hold it hostage to new demands. Pelosi will face one of the summer's bigger challenges. She will have to figure out how to find enough votes from liberal and moderate Democrats while weaving a single bill out of the three measures approved by the Energy and Commerce, Ways and Means. and Education and Labor committees. The leader of the Blue Dogs, Rep. Mike Ross, DArk., said the deal incJuded: • Exempting businesses with payrolls of up to $500,000 from a requirement to provide insurance to employees or pay a penalty. The existing bill had set the level at $250,000. The penalty would hit businesses with payrolls between $500 ,000 and $7 50,000 on a sliding scale before kicking in fully at 8 percent of payroll. • Poor people would get subsidies to help them buy care after spending 12 percent of their income on premiums, instead of 11 percent in the existing bill. • Payment rates to doctors and other medical providers in a new public insurance plan would be negotiated with the secretary of Health and Human Services, instead of tied to Medicare rates as the bill now says. The Blue Dogs contend that change will lead to fairer payment rates. · • In addition to the public plan, states will have the option of setting up health care co-ops. Details on that were still being worked out. • Instead of the federal government picking up the full cost of an expansion of Medicaid, states would pick up part of the costs. Ross said that together the changes would cut costs in the $1.5 trillion bill by about $100 billion, thqugh the new break for small businesses and the decision to allow negotiated rates in the public plan would also add significant costs, so it wasn't clear that there was any net cost savings from the deal. . Alleged Holocaust museum shooter indicted WASHINGTON (AP) A federal grand jury indicted an elderly white supremacist Wednesday on charges that could earn him the death penalty in the fatal shooting of a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum m Washington. Hate crimes charges were added to the case against James von Brunn, who has been in a hospital since the shooting last month. Officials say the 89-yearold shot and killed museum guard Stephen T. Johns on June 10. Von Brunn was ~hot ill the face by other guards but survived. A seven-count indictment was handed up Wednesday in U.S. District Court, charging von Brunn with first-degree murder, killing in a federal building - both charges already lodged against him - and a new charge of bias-motivated crime. Four of the charges make him eligible for the death penalty. The indictment accuses von Brunn of seeking to intimidate Jewish people at the museum. FBI Assistant Director Joseph Persichini said he believed the indictment will "send a message" to those who would try to turn hatred into violence. "We knew what Mr. von Brunn had done, and we had to determine why, and I think this indictment shows exactly why, because of bate and prejudice," Persichini said. He said investigators tracked leads all over the country to build a case against von Brunn. The case has sparked renewed calls for expanded hate crimes legislation. Authorities say von Brunn walked up to the museum carrying a rifle and shot Johns, who was black, as the guard was opening the door for him. Von Brunn had a racist, anti-Semitic Web site and wrote a book titled "Kill the Best Gentiles," alleging a Jewish conspiracy "to destroy the white gene pool." He also claimed the Holocaust was a hoax. A hearing on von Brunn's case is scheduled for Thursday in U.S. District Court. So far he has not been well enough to appear in court and it was unclear whether he would be in the courtroom this week. ------ - - PageA2 JriHlJE Pregnant women front of line for swine nu vaccine Thursday, July 30, Bv MIKE STOBBE AP MEDICAL WRITER ATLANTA - Pregnant women. health care workers and children six months and older should be placed at the front of the line for S\\ ine flu vaccinations this fall, a government panel recommended Wednesday. The panel also said those first vaccinated should include parents and other caregivers of infants; nonelderly adults who have high-risk medical conditions: and young adults ages 19 to 24. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted to set vaccination priorities for those groups Wednesday during a meeting in Atlanta. The panel's recommendations are usually adopted by federal health officials. The recommendations are ~esigned to address potential limits in vaccine availability this fall if there is heavy demand and limited supplies. The government estimates that about 120 million swine flu vaccine doses will be available to the public by late October. Roughly 160 million people are in the priority groups considered most vulnerable to infection or most at risk for severe disease. Although the number recommended to get doses exceeds the projected supply, health officials don't think everyone will run out and get vaccinated. Traditionally, less than half of the people recommended to get seasonal flu shots get them. Only about 15 percent of pregnant women get seasonal flu vaccinations. If there is ample vaccine, vaccinations also would be recommended for all nonelderly adults. the panel also voted. And if there ·s still plenty of vaccine, the swine flu shots and spray doses should be offered to people 65 and older. Fewer illnesses have been reported in the elderly, who appear to have higher levels of immunity to the virus, health experts say. However, the elderly should be pushed to get shots against seasonal flu, which is a significant health risk to older adults. Panel members say they hope swine flu vaccinations will be opened up quickly. "The only sin is vaccine left in the refrigerator," said Dr. William Schaffner, a Vanderbilt University flu expert, in a comment to the panel. The panel also said if vaccine is scarce, the government could require that a much tighter group be at the front of the vaccination line, numbering about 40 million. That would include pregnant women and household contacts of small children. just like in the general priority recommendation. But the others would be children ages 6 months through 4 years, children with chronic medical conditions and only health care and emergency services workers who have direct contact with patients. It's a worst-case scenario that officials aren't expecting, but they wanted to have a plan for it just in case, said officials with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the federal agency that reviews the panel's recommendations. The range of recommendations reflects how hard it is t9 plan for swine flu, officials said. Some health officials have compared the exercise to predicting a hurricane. The storm - or virus - is itself unpredictable; it could grow more dangerous or suddenly weaken. The availability of lifesaving supplies or vaccine can also affect survival. "It's better to prepare and have the storm fizzle than to be sitting there with no way off the island when the tsunami rolls in," said Kristine Sheedy, a CDC commun icatiom. specialist. Variables with the swine flu virus can range from whether it mutates into a form that is more deadly, spreads more efficiently, or is better at fighting off current antiviral medications. AP photo Rear Admiral Anne Schuchat MD speaks during a news conference Wednesday in Atlanta after meeting of Advisory Committee on Immunization at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevent1on. Variables with the vaccine include potential production · problems. Production of the vaccine will be a prodigious feat: The government has already purchased 195 million dos~s for· the coming fall and winter. which far eclipses the J 25 million or so doses generally produced for seasonal flu vaccine. Four vaccine manufacturers are wrapping up seasonal flu vaccine production and have begun production of swine flu vaccine. But another company. Sanofi Pasteur, has been more delayed and may not finish seasonal vaccine production until September, a company spokeswoman said. Sanofi is among the largest producers of flu vaccine, so those delays could have a significant ripple effect. Packaging, distribution and othel· steps can take a month or more. For those reasons. the government's best guess at the moment is 40 million doses will be 2009 available in September and 120 million by around midOctober. Health officiab are push· ina for the work to done quickly. There are also clinical trials taking place ' e r the next few months check the vaccine's sa and effectiveness. but it s possible the government will begin a public vaccination campaign before that work is complete, said Dr. Anne Schuchat. who oversees the CDC's flu vaccination programs. Why the r4~h? Vaccines work when given to a patient before ~hey're exposed to the vaccme-targeting virus, and cases may explode not long after kids get back in school, CDC offkials said. Another reason for not waiting for testing data: Health officials are thinking of the swine flu vaccine as a variation of seasonal flu vaccine. which comes out annually and does not undergo the kind of safety and effectiveness testing that new drugs and other new vaccines do. First identified in A. S\vine flu has likely ini\ ed more than I million Americans, the CDC believes. with many of those suffering mild cases never reported. There have been 302 deaths and nearly 44,000 laboratory-identified cases. according to CDC numbers released last week. It's not clear whether the virus in its cun·ent form is much \VOrse than seasonal flu in terms of overall threat to the U.S. population, but it is causing more severe illness in some younger adults and children. It has a dangerous genetic characteristic that allows it to infect the lower lungs. whereas seasonal flu tends to infect the upper respiratory tract. CDC officials said.

July 30. the 211 th day of 2009. There are 154 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On July 10. 1945, during World War II, the battle cruiser USS Indianapolis, which had just delivered components fo r the atomic bomb that would be dropped on Hiroshima. was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine; only 316 out of some I .200 men survived the sinkin!! and shark-infe-;ted waters. On this date: in 1729, Baltimore. Md .. was founded. In 1792, the French national anthem ''La Marseillaise,'' by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle, was first sung in Paris by troops arriving from Marseille. In 1864. during the Civil War. Union forces tried to take Petersburg. Va .• by exploding a gunpowder-filled mine under Confederate defense lines: the attack failed. In 1908. the first round-the-world automobile race. which had begun in ~ew York in February. ended m Paris with the drivers of the American car. a Thomas Plyer. declared the winners over teams from Germany and Italy. In 1918, poet Joyce Kilmer. a sergeant in the 165th U.S. Infantry Regiment, was killed during the Second Battle of the Marne in World War I.

(AP) - Sctentists with the U.S. Geological Survey !-.aid Wednesday there are fewer large diameter trees growing in Yosemite National Park than in years past, most likely because of climate change. Warmer temperatures and smaller snow packs are creating conditions where fewer Ponderosa and sugar pines and other heartier trees can flourish. said Jim Lutz. a researcher at the Univer~ity of Washington who co-wrote the study. ··~tost of the water that becomes available in the Sierra Nevada comes from the snow pack.'' Lutl said. "'Higher temperatures might increase populations of insects or make fungi more aggressive ... which all could increasingly contribute to tree mortality." Lutt. explained that when smaller snow packs collect in April and Ma), the tree::. have less water to sustain them m the dry summer months that follow. Warmer temperatures also can increase the severitv of wildfires, which can kill off trees. he said. • Another factor in the decline may be that parts of Yosemite haven't experienced wildfires for 100 years. That could have allowed other species that compete with the biglllllii.r trees to survive and suck up the water large-diameter need to keep growing in girth, Lutz said. Overall, researchers concluded that the density of largedtameter trees inside the park dropped by 24 percent from 1932 to ~ 999, according to a detailed analysis of data from two groups of tree surveys taken throughout the park. Trees in the park's hi~hcr elevations were among the most affected. the USGS lound. Yosemite's protected status as a national park - and rangers ' and ecologists' good stewardship of its forests allowed researchers a unique opportunity to study trees· health over time, Ltttt said. Future :.tudies could examine the decline's impact on animals lil\e the spotted owl and ti::.hcr. which need the habitat large trees provide to live. as do some vegetation like mo\ses, orchids and lichens, researchers said. -es The Daily Sentinel • Page As www. mydailysentinel.com Thursday, July 30, 2009 proclamation next month. declaring Sept. 12 Veterans Appreciation Day. in conjunction with the national POW/MIA Recognition 1 Day. . -r:he local Legion ~st wi!l mv.tte other vet~t:ans orgamzattons to parttc!pate 111 the event, Spaun .satd. ~nd has already recetved mterest from posts as far away as Williamstown.

Ohio watchdog criticizes prison purchases ·COLUMBLS (AP) The former deputy director of Ohio's prison system wrong!} steered a $120,000 contract to a college fraternity brother in a deal that cost the state an extra $40,000, according to an investigative report released Wednesday. Michael Randle, now head of the Illinois prison System, referred an Israeli company that manufactures inmate-tracking devices to Ohio compan) KBK Enterprises. according to · the report by the state inspector general's office. · KBK. a Columbus real estate development company. acted in this situation a" the distributor of the devices to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. Company President Keith Key was in a fraternity with Randle at Oh10 State Umversity in the late 1980s. The state purchased the equipment in 2004 for use by seven prison work crews. The inspector general said Wednesday that the state could have purchased the equipment directly from the Israeli company. called Elmo-Tech, and avoided KBK's $40.000 markup. The equipment wasn't popular with prison guards, Randle told investigators. ··The product worked.'' Randla said in a tran.script of an interview with investigators re\ iewed b} The Associated Press. "But in terms of implementation. I wasn't really ... comfortable with how our staff kind of took to the product." The state no longer uses the devices. "The equipment worked OK. but technolog) has greatly improved since then." prisons spokeswoman Andrea Carson told the AP. She noted the inspector geneml's report did not require the Ohio Deprutment of Corrl!ctions to change any of its policies. ''As public servants we know our responsibility is to be good stewards and to continue to be transparent in our daily operations,'' Carson said. The report also criticized Randle for referring f~mo­ Tcch to KBK and th"n failing to tell his 5uperiors about his relationship with Key. Kev and Randle didn't immediate!\ return telephone messages eeking comment. ''While there are no law:-; expressly prohibiting a state employee from doing this. provided the employee receives no personal benefit from the purchase. the referral and subsequent purchase clearly give the appt:arance of impropriet} ." the inspector general's report said. The report did not find that Randle benefited financially from his actions. which would be illegal. Andrew Cohen. a f01mer Elmo-Tech representatn e, said Randle had no involvement in the product's purchase other than suggesting KBK as c. distributor. according to a summa!) of Cohen's interview with state inve-;tigators reviewed by the AP.

The Marietta law firm, Theisen Brock, tiled the suit on behalf of the Baker estate. and has demanded a judgment in excess of $25.000 in keeping with Ohio law.

The Racine, Eastern and Middleport Libraries were recently closed due to budget cuts but will reopen next week for two days a week. Another budget issue Stewart took issue with was the expansion of r<tcctrack gambling which is projected to generate $900 million into the budget, including one- time licensing fees. Stewart said whether someone is for or against gambling doesn't change the fact the proposi tion is faced with lawsuits which could tie up or even eliminate any revenue the proposal might generate. Stewart said all of that $900 million goes into education and its money that may ultimately not be available. In all, Stewart said he worries that in two years the stale will be in even worse financial shape, stating Ohio could be facing an even greater deficit. He pointed out almost sg billion in the current state budget is comprised of "one time only" federal money. Stewart said in order to simply maintain the state's current budget, tax revenue would have to grow a minimum or 15-20 percent "There's just no way that's going to happen,'' Stewart explained .

Honor from Page Bl toothpick dangling from his lip. Johnson and Abdul-Jabbar both pointed out Wooden's influence in their day-to-day habits as well as their overall views of life. "He has an impact on us, even if we don't want him to." Johnson said. producing a handful of Wooden's favonte white index cards from his jacket pocket. They were inscribed with ~ notes for Johnson's job coaching his 10-year-old 's sumrner league bru.ketball team. - ·'The enduring thing is that sense of family,'' Johnson added. ''The example that he gave us in that area is one thing that's outlasted all the basketball and all the accolades and evel)thing else." · Wooden's daughter, granddaughter and several of his 13 great-grandchildren also attended the luncheon. ··The most important thing in the world is family and love,'' Wooden said. "Love is the most important thing in the world. Hate, we should remove from the dictionary.... They say you never use love in your Pyramid (of Success). I just say I never thought of it." Comeback from PageBl after being traded there. Kevin O'Connell. a 2008 third-round draft pick from , San Diego State, could have the inside track to become ·Brady's backup. The Patriots al~o have third-year pro Matt Gutierrez and rookie free agent Brian Hoyer at quarterback. · The receiving corps remains potent wi~h Randy Moss and Welker and the addition of Joey Galloway as the ·third wide receiver to replace Jabar Gaffney, who signed _with Denver. • The Broncos also have Josh McDaniels, who became head coach after serving as Brady's well-respected quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator. "That's part of the NFL: Things change every year," Brady said two months ago at minicamp at his first news conference since tearing ligamt!uls in his tight knee. "It doesn't stop for anybody around here. You leave and someone else fills your spot and they're anxious for the opportunity." The Patriots beefed up their running back corps by signing free agent Fred Taylor from the Jacksonvtlle Jaguars to join veterans Kevin Faulk. Sammy Morris and Laurence Maroney. who has been slowed by injuries in his three seasons since being drafted in the first round. The competttion at tight end got tougher with the additions of free agent Chris Baker from the New York Jets and Alex Smith in a trade with Tampa Bay. The Patriots have holdovers Ben Watson and David Thomas. but, .with no blocking back on the roster. could use a tight end for that role. The offensive and defensive lines remain intact. but · the Patriots will have a new look at linebacker and defensive back. Outside linebacker Mike Vrabel, a team leader who spent eight years with New England, went to Kansas City in the Cassel trade. In the secondary, the Patriots lost safety Rodney Harrison, who retired. and corner' back Ellis Hobbs, traded to Philadelphia. But they brought in a crowd of defensive backs: veteran cornerbacks Shawn Springs and Leigh Bodden. and ·second-round draft picks Patrick Chung, a safety. and Darius Butler. a cornerback. Defense is a greater concern than offense, especially if ~Brady plays close to the level that made him the NFL's ·most valuable player in 2007 and a two-~ime Super Bowl MVP. The Patriots were vulnerable in third-down situations ·and in the red zone, but the development of inside line~ backer Jerod Mayo. last year\ defensive rookie of the year, should help. and donations are greatly appreciated.

Oak Hill youth football camp set s MYL Fall Ball sign-ups BBA adult softball tournament Gallipolis Backyard Ball Kentucky, Western Kentucky sign four-game deal NASHVILLE. Tenn. (AP) ---.. It took Kentucky and Westem Kentucky nearly a century to meet on the football field. The schools won't ha\e · ro wait quite that long for the rematch. The Wildcats and · the Hilltoppers announced a fourgame series beginning in 2010 that includes a pair of games at LP Field in Nash\'ille. Kentucky will host WKU at Commonwealth Stadium in 2010 and 2012 while the Hilltoppers will serve as host for the Wildcats when the teams meet in the seasonopener in Nashville in 20 I I and 2013. Kentucky won the only game between the two schools 41-3 last year in Lexington. The Hilltoppers begin 2009 as a full-fledged member of the Sun Belt Conference after moving up from the Football Chan1pionship Subdivision. WKU athletic director• Wood Selig said pla)ing in Nashville gives fans of both tean1s a unique opportunity. The Hilltoppers will be designated the home team for both games ~ "Op~ning the 20 II and 2013 ~easons in N~Lshville i~ a creati\'c and unique way to grO\" our program's \ isi bil ity." Selig said. "It will also be great for football fans and youth players throughout the region." The Wildcats· have had plenty of succes~ at LP Field in recent years. winning the Music City Bowl there in 2006 and 2007. Kentucky's ability to draw large crowds to &Me home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans made them an attractive pick for the bowl and the stadium was an obvi- ous choice for the meeting. Though Houchen~ Industries-LT. Smith Stadium has undergone a major renovation that\ coincided with WKL's move to the Football Bo""l Subdivision. the new 25.000-seat capacity \Vas far too small to accommodate the t~uis of both teams. ''It wouldn't make sense: financially. for either team when you have the oppmtuniry to draw a large number of fans to an area that's beneficial for both sides." Selig said. Kentucky coach Rich Brooks said the combination of venue. location and opponent is a pett'cct tit. ''It makes sense for our fans. it makes sense for our players, who enjoy the expetience of playing in an NFL stadium.'' he said.
