MEXICO CITY (AP) Mexican authorities arrested a woman guarding an arsenal that · included the first anti-aircraft machine gun seized in Mexico , police said Tuesday. as the army announced the capture of an alleged top drug cartel · lieutenant. The arsenal belonged to a group linked to the powerful Beltran-Leyva drug cartel, federal police coordinator Gen. Rodolfo Cruz said. It also included ammunition, five rifles, a grenade and part of a grenade launcher. Mexican drug cartels, batding a fierce crackdown by soldiers and federal police, have increasingly . gon-~ hold of higper-powered weapons, even militarygrade arms such as grenades and machine guns. That has left ·police - particularly state and municipal forces - grossly outgunned, and many officers have quit following attacks. Cruz said the confiscated .50-caliber, anti-aircraft machine gun can fire 800 rounds per minute and is capable of ·penetrating armor from more than 5,000 feet (1 ,500 meters). Police on a routine patrol Monday found the gun fitted atop an SUV at a house in northern Sonora state. Authoriiies did not release any other details about the gun , including its make , where it was manufactured or where it was sold. The arrested suspect, Anahi Beltran Cabrera, apparently is not related to the Beltran-Leyva . clan, Cruz said. The U.S. Bureau of · Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has traced many guns seized at scenes of drug violence in Mexico to U.S. commercial sources. But determining the source of military-grade weapons such as grenades .and fully automatic machine guns is more complicated . . The ATF says the grenades are mostly smuggled in through Central America, and have been traced back to the miliiaries of many countries, from South Korea to Spain and Israel. Some may be leftovers from the Central American civil wars. Assailants have fired on government aircraft performing a_nti-drug missiOns in Mexico in the past, but &pparently never with the caliber of weapon found Monday. .

South Korea North Korea said Tuesday it was restarting its . .rogue nuclear program , booting U.N. inspectors and pulling out of disannament talks in an angry · reaction · to U.N. Security CouncH condemna:ion of its April 5 rocket launch . . Pyongyang ordered U.N. nuclear inspectors to remove seals and cameras from its Yongbyon nuclear site and leave the country as quickly as possible , the lnternational Atomic Energy Agency said. North Korea told the iAEA it was "immediately i;easing all cooperation" and ''has decided to reactivate all facilities and go ahead with the reprocessing of spent fuel," according to a statement from the U.N. Jlgency. . ' White House spokesman Robert Gibbs condemned ~he· decision , saying the jnternational community will not accept North Korea until it abandons what Washington calls its pursuit of nuclear weapons. The ·North must "cease its provocative threats,"be said.· : Russia also deplored the · }liOVe and urged its neighbor to rejoin six-nation talks, which have been held ~inoe 2003 in an attempt to get Pyongyang to give up its in nuclear program exchange for aid and other concessions. Britain's Foreign Office said the break with the · IAEA was ''completely unjustified." China - Pyongyang's main ally and the host of the talks - called for calm on all sides. Despite its defiance, analysts say North Korea, one of the poorest countries in the world, is unlikely to abandon the talks altogether. They suggested North Korea could be trying to draw the United States into direct negotiations, which it has long sought. Hajime Izumi, a Nmth Korea expert at the University of Shizuoka in Japan, said the North Korean reaction was de~igned to "bring the United States to the negotiating table and squeeze max.imum conces, sions from it." All 15 members of the SecUrity Council, including China and Russia, agreed Monday io condemn the April 5 launch as a violation of U.N. resolutions and to .tighten sanctions against the regime. The U.N. statement was weaker than the resolution Japan and the United States had pursued. North Korea claims it launched a communications · satellite as part of a peaceful bid to develop its space piogram as 'Kim Jong II embarked on his third term as leader.

MEXICO CITY (AP) Mexican authorities arrested a woman guarding an arsenal that · included the first anti-aircraft machine gun seized in Mexico , police said Tuesday. as the army announced the capture of an alleged top drug cartel · lieutenant. The arsenal belonged to a group linked to the powerful Beltran-Leyva drug cartel, federal police coordinator Gen. Rodolfo Cruz said. It also included ammunition, five rifles, a grenade and part of a grenade launcher. Mexican drug cartels, batding a fierce crackdown by soldiers and federal police, have increasingly . gon-~ hold of higper-powered weapons, even militarygrade arms such as grenades and machine guns. That has left ·police - particularly state and municipal forces - grossly outgunned, and many officers have quit following attacks. Cruz said the confiscated .50-caliber, anti-aircraft machine gun can fire 800 rounds per minute and is capable of ·penetrating armor from more than 5,000 feet (1 ,500 meters). Police on a routine patrol Monday found the gun fitted atop an SUV at a house in northern Sonora state. Authoriiies did not release any other details about the gun , including its make , where it was manufactured or where it was sold. The arrested suspect, Anahi Beltran Cabrera, apparently is not related to the Beltran-Leyva . clan, Cruz said. The U.S. Bureau of · Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has traced many guns seized at scenes of drug violence in Mexico to U.S. commercial sources. But determining the source of military-grade weapons such as grenades .and fully automatic machine guns is more complicated . . The ATF says the grenades are mostly smuggled in through Central America, and have been traced back to the miliiaries of many countries, from South Korea to Spain and Israel. Some may be leftovers from the Central American civil wars. Assailants have fired on government aircraft performing a_nti-drug missiOns in Mexico in the past, but &pparently never with the caliber of weapon found Monday. .

South Korea North Korea said Tuesday it was restarting its . .rogue nuclear program , booting U.N. inspectors and pulling out of disannament talks in an angry · reaction · to U.N. Security CouncH condemna:ion of its April 5 rocket launch . . Pyongyang ordered U.N. nuclear inspectors to remove seals and cameras from its Yongbyon nuclear site and leave the country as quickly as possible , the lnternational Atomic Energy Agency said. North Korea told the iAEA it was "immediately i;easing all cooperation" and ''has decided to reactivate all facilities and go ahead with the reprocessing of spent fuel," according to a statement from the U.N. Jlgency. . ' White House spokesman Robert Gibbs condemned ~he· decision , saying the jnternational community will not accept North Korea until it abandons what Washington calls its pursuit of nuclear weapons. The ·North must "cease its provocative threats,"be said.· : Russia also deplored the · }liOVe and urged its neighbor to rejoin six-nation talks, which have been held ~inoe 2003 in an attempt to get Pyongyang to give up its in nuclear program exchange for aid and other concessions. Britain's Foreign Office said the break with the · IAEA was ''completely unjustified." China - Pyongyang's main ally and the host of the talks - called for calm on all sides. Despite its defiance, analysts say North Korea, one of the poorest countries in the world, is unlikely to abandon the talks altogether. They suggested North Korea could be trying to draw the United States into direct negotiations, which it has long sought. Hajime Izumi, a Nmth Korea expert at the University of Shizuoka in Japan, said the North Korean reaction was de~igned to "bring the United States to the negotiating table and squeeze max.imum conces, sions from it." All 15 members of the SecUrity Council, including China and Russia, agreed Monday io condemn the April 5 launch as a violation of U.N. resolutions and to .tighten sanctions against the regime. The U.N. statement was weaker than the resolution Japan and the United States had pursued. North Korea claims it launched a communications · satellite as part of a peaceful bid to develop its space piogram as 'Kim Jong II embarked on his third term as leader.

Two months? No way. Two days JS more like it. Hamson began lifting weights only a couple of days after lm length-of-the-fteld run helped the Steelers beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-23 in the Super Bowl, the All-Pro linebacker satd Tuesday after signing a $51 .75 milhon, sixyear contract. The Steelers staged their Super Bowl parade before an estimated quarter-million witnesses m downtown Pittsburgh on Feb. 3, two days after winning in Tampa, but Harrison apparently had enough time to slip in a workout that day. "That's what took so long ,'' Harnson satd of needing two days - and not one - to work out again. "I had to recover from the run." · Some NFL players might think abou t hitting the weights again a couple of weeks after the season ends, but to go back to work so soon after making one of the biggest plays in Super Bowl history?

"I want to make them proud and not let them down," sard Harrison. whose most recent contract paid him $5.5 million over four seasons.

NEW YORK (AP) - The Mets opened Citi Field with a vintage peffOQnance vtntage 1962 or '64.

After David Wright tied the· score 5-all with a three-run homer in the fifth, San Diego scored the tiebreaking run in appropriately goofy fashion: Ryan Church allowed Luis Rodriguez's leadoff fly to right field in the sixth to glance off hts glove for a three- base error, and Rodriguez came home when Pedro Feliciano balked with two outs, bringing more boos from the opening ·crowd of 41 ,007.

Allen was scheduled to serve the suspension in Tuesday night's game in Philadelphia against the 76ers. ,~ Harrison hit weights 2 days after Super Bowl dash PITISlWRGH (AP) - Ftrst, James Harrison says, he wants to dispel'the notion it's taken all this time to get over his exhausting 100-yard mterception return touchdown run tn the Super Bow I. . Two months? No way. Two days JS more like it. Hamson began lifting weights only a couple of days after lm length-of-the-fteld run helped the Steelers beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-23 in the Super Bowl, the All-Pro linebacker satd Tuesday after signing a $51 .75 milhon, sixyear contract. The Steelers staged their Super Bowl parade before an estimated quarter-million witnesses m downtown Pittsburgh on Feb. 3, two days after winning in Tampa, but Harrison apparently had enough time to slip in a workout that day. "That's what took so long ,'' Harnson satd of needing two days - and not one - to work out again. "I had to recover from the run." · Some NFL players might think abou t hitting the weights again a couple of weeks after the season ends, but to go back to work so soon after making one of the biggest plays in Super Bowl history? ''I go on my own schedule," Harrison said. "Some guys do things differently. I don't like to be out of tt too long because !hen it takes too long to get back into the shape that you were m." Hamson's new contract guarantees him about $20 mil· lion, or slightly more than the $5,000 the Steelers gave the undrafted rookie from Kent State as a signing bonus in 2003, before they cut him three times and the Ravens cut htm once. Then, he had only enough bonus money to buy a motorcycle. Now. ~e ts the second highest-paid player m Steelers his· tory after reaching a deal that is surpassed only by ,quarterback Ben Roettihsberger's $.102 million contract, which is worth a guaranteed $36 million. Hamson insists bemg a big money player for the first time won't change the only non-drafted player to win the NFL Defenstve Player of the Year award. Hamson had a dub-record 16 sacks last season for the league's top-rated defense. "I want to make them proud and not let them down," sard Harrison. whose most recent contract paid him $5.5 million over four seasons. "I don't want them to feel like they gave me this money and now I'm going out there and not perform. That is what is going to dnve me." NEW YORK (AP) - The Mets opened Citi Field with a vintage peffOQnance vtntage 1962 or '64. They gave up the first leadoff home run to open a maJOr league ballpark, a third-pitch dnve by Jody Germ off Mike Pelfrey. Then in the second mmng, Pelfrey toppled to the mound in mid-delivery · tu pttcher Walter Silva, keeling over when he caught a cleat on the mound. After David Wright tied the· score 5-all with a three-run homer in the fifth, San Diego scored the tiebreaking run in appropriately goofy fashion: Ryan Church allowed Luis Rodriguez's leadoff fly to right field in the sixth to glance off hts glove for a three- base error, and Rodriguez came home when Pedro Feliciano balked with two outs, bringing more boos from the opening ·crowd of 41 ,007. So C111 Field began its run in the same manner the Mets started play at the Polo Grounds in 1962andatShea Stadium two years later with a defeat. The Mets just hope the Padres' 6-5 win Monday night wasn't the start of a trend. "It's a lot of fun. Obviously, we would have liked to have gotten the win, but we're gotng to play some good baseball here. and we're going to have fun doing it," Wright said. ''I'm looking forward to Wednesday already. I can't wait to get back out here because it's a lot of fun coming to this ballpark and to have these amenities." When the Mets began life at Manhattan's Polo Grounds in 1962, they opened with a 4-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates, who scored what turned out to be the decisive run on an eighth-tnnmg wtld pJtch by Ray Daviault The Pirates won Shea Stadtum"s debut 4-3 two years later as Wilhe Stargell homered leading off the second to drive in the first run, then scored on Bill Mazeroskt 's etghth-inning stngle to break a 3-al! tie. The Mets have won JUSt a pair of World Senes tttles, in 1969 ·and 1986, and remain overshadowed by the Yankees. who have a record 26 championships. Even in ballparks there 's oneupmanshtp - on Thursday. the new $1.5 btllion gramteand- limestone · Yankee Stadtum hosts tts first reguJar-season game, just three days after $800 million Citi Field, with its red brick exterior and 160-foot ·wide Jackie Robinson Rotunda evokes Brooklyn 's old Ebbets Field. Following .September collapses in 'Shea Stadium's final two seasons, the Mets want to change the team's tmage. "Winning will do a lot more than the park," Wright said, referring to a "certam reputation" that 's stuck to the Mets following their consecutive late-season . fades . "'We need to prove those guys wrong and go out there and prove we Can play good baseball start to fuush," he said. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, wearing a Mets jacket, watched from the first row behind tqe plate, a $695 Delta Club Platinum seat. New York Gov. Gov. David Paterson also was on hand, as was comcdtan Jerry Seinfeld Mets Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Seaver threw out the ceremonial first pitch to retired catcher Mike Ptazza. Former Mets Darryl Strawberry and John Franco also attended. "One of the most spectacular places I've ever been," said Bloomberg. who stayed until the final out . In the eighth row in' section II . near the Mets dugout. were a father and son in $525 Delta Club Gokl seats:The father. who tdenttfied himself as 47-year-old Kurt, paid $7,500 in an eBay auction to acquire the pair of tickets sold in the liquidation of assets of disgraced investor Bernard Madoff. While Madoff sits in jail following the collapse of a $64.8 billion Ponzi scheme, the father used the ltckets to fulfill a promise he made to 16-year-old son Mike. " I didn't expect to pay what we had to pay." Kurt said. "But when you get on eBay and you refuse to lose, you know, you end up paying more than you want." While fans wandered through the three-deck ballpark, filled With green seats and upscal e restaurants, clubs and food stands, the Mets bumbled. They tested out their cozy digs, which has about 15 ,000 fewer seats than Shea, with exhibition games April 3-4 against Boston. But in the reat first test, they performed nearly as mtserably as Ctttgroup. the bank that agreed to pay $400 million over 20 years for naming rights to the ballpark. then needed a government bailout. San Diego built a 4-0 lead with a three-run second that included David Eckstein's two-run double and Brian Gtles' soft RBI single. Wrtght homered on a low pitch. a drive over the retired numbers above fhe 364-foot si~n on the left-field fence th'itt raised the new 4.800pound home run apple nearly 10 tunes the 582pounder that fans loved at Shea. But then Rodriguez hit the game-changing tly off Brian Stokes (0-l). Edward Mujica (1-1) retired his only batter for his ftrst major league win . Duaner Sanchez worked a perfect etghth and Heath Bell - both former Mets pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his fotu1h save. According to the Elias Sports Bureau. Gerut became the first leadoff batter to homer apenmg a btg league ballpark., Pelfrey summed up the first mght after he fell, when manager Jerry Manuel and ·a trainer came to the mound to check on him . "I asked them if the game · was on TV." Pelfrey said. "It was pretty embarrassing." Phillies 9, Nationals 8 . At Washington , Ryan Howard, Raul Ibanez and Shane. Victorino homered to lead the mourning Phtllies to · the vtctory. Longtime broadcaster Harry Kalas, whose stgnature "Outta here!" home run calls provided the soundtmck to Phtladelphta baseball for nearly four decades, died after collapsing m the broadcast booth before the game. Ue was 73. Howard's ftrst homer of 2009, a three-run shot off reliever Saul Rivera (0-1). broke a 4-all tte m the seventh inning. Jamie Mover (1-1) got the win and j td Lidge earned his third save. Meigs lowed by a drive up the mtddle by Micki Barnes that tied the game at two apiece . The sixth inning started off with runners H. McClain .and A. Swiney of Alexander on second and third vta back to back singles with no outs. Alexander then knocked the ball to Meigs' Taylor Elhott who's throw was mishandled by catcher Micki Barnes which allowed the 'go ahead run to score. The next batter for Alexander. Brozak, hit a grounder off the pitcher's glove allowing the fourth and final run by the Lady Spartans. Meigs was unable to regain thetr momentum for the seventh inning. ending the game at 4-2, Alexander. Meigs hopes to fare better tonight as they face Southern High School at home, starting at 5 p.m. Miami fromPageBl fromPageBl ed a team that went 2-10 - worst in the Mid-Amencan Conference.

It's just horrible," said fonner Orioles pitcher and Hall of Farner Jim Palmer, who beat out.Fidrych for lhe 1976 Cy Young Award. "He did embrace life. I remember him trying · to play golf when he couldn't play golf and enjoying every minute of it." Fidrych's first major league start was a complete game, two-hitter in which he beat the Cleveland Indians 2-1. He won seven of his fLrSt eight decisions. In the All-Star game, he allowed two runs in the first inning and put runners at second and third in the second. but got the fmal two outs and left after two innings trailing 2-0. The NL won 7-1. Chicago Cubs beqch coach Alan Trammell was a rookie . shortstop with .Detroit in 1977 and saw Fidrych 's on-field behavior up close. · "He was very genuine. It was not an ·act," Trammell said. "He never changed. He liked to have a good time. '(ou 'd go over his house and he'd make dirmer. That's the type of guy he was:" After taking 1981 off from pitching, Fidryah wenr to Pawtucket Where he made his first~onJuly 3,1982. He.finisl;led tliat season with a 6-8 record and 4.98 ERA in 20 games, 19 of them starts. The ·next season he was 2-5 with a 9.68 ERA in 12 games, including eight starts, and retired in July of that Season. "When he got to us in late June every place he pitched i~ the)t:~~~ue was a sellout. Six Y~.~\s. after his great ye;uhe was . still selling · out minot. 'league parks," said Pawtuckei team president Mike Tamburro, who was general manager when Fidrych played there. "His baseball career certainly ended far too soon, and now I'm sorry ·to say we've lost him far too soon. He was a remarkable . character. He was like a meteor in the baseball wo'rld that one year. He played center stage and the entire game of baseball kind of played around him ." One. of Fidrych 's inost memorable minor le<1-gue · games was ag~inst Dave Righetti, the AL Rookie of the Year with the New York Yankees in 1981 who was sent to Triple-A Columbus the following season. Fidrych pitched a complete game, 7-5 win. "He was almost too down to earth," Tainburro said. "He was just a wonderful guy to be around. I think the antics on the field were never an act. I think it was his nue feelings. He was just a simple guy, lived a simple lifestyle arid just brought that lunchp!lil mentality to the pitcher's mound NJ tagS new drivers with decal, A2 every folll"'f five days.'~ · . ' San Francisco Giants hitting coach Carney Lansford's first three seasons, with the California Angels, coincided with Fidrych 's last three in the majors. · "I don't thinll you'll ever see someone like that come around again," Lansford said. "He was just great for the game. That's what the game needed, more guys like him - colorful. He was one Of a kind." . ,) oCI ·. :\IS•\'oi.;;H , :Xo. t<JH Grand Opening frldnv.
