Indians get relievers Karsay, Graves CLEVELAND (AP)- The Cleveland Indians turned to their past for help with their bullpen, agreeing Monday to minor league contracts with right-handed relievers Danny Graves and Steve Karsay. Graves and Karsay previously pitched for the Indians, who need fill the setup spot vacated when Bob Howry agreed to a $12 million, threeyear contract with the Chicago Cubs in November. Graves, who holds Cincinnati's club record for · saves ( 182), was released by the Reds in May, shortly after he made an obscene hand gesture to a fan following a poor ninth-inning performance. He was signed by the New York Mets and went I -I with a 6.52 ERA in 40 appearances. If the 32-year:old Ora ves is added to Cleveland's 40-man roster in spring training, 'he would receive a oneyear $575,000 contract. When he was let go by the Reds, Graves insisted he had not fully recovered from 2003, when he agreed to try to help the club by becoming a starter for the first time. He went 415 and ·wore down, losing velocity off his fastball. Graves was with the Indians from 1995-97 before being traded to Cincinnati on July 31 , 1997, in a five-player deal. Cleveland originally picked Graves in the .fourth round of the I 994 draft. Karsay has been slowed by injuries to hi s back and shoulder in recent years. which has limited him to 27 appearances since 2003. The 33-year-old was rel'cascd by the New York Yankees last season and finished the year with Texas Rangers. Karsay, who began · hi s career as a starter with Oakland, went 15-14 with 22 saves in 3 112 seasons with the Indians. Off a successful 200 I season split between the Indians and Atlanta Braves, Karsay signed a $22.5 million, four-year deal to become the Ya~kees' setup man for Mariano Rivera, He filled that role in 2002 by pitching in 78 games, but Karsay missed the entire 2003 season while recovering from surgery on his right shoulder. Karsay would get a oneyear. $600,000 deal if added to Cleveland's 40-man roster. Eagles Trimble held a 43-23 lead at intermission.

In the end, Romney, though he lost the debate in the legislature, taught hi s opponents that he would not concede his ideals for the political status quo. Romney has already demonstrated an ability to lead. WhiJ·e governor he's turned around a $3 billion deficit without raising taxes (in "Taxachusetts"!) and has taken a hard-line stand on illegal immigration. Romney also refused to budge when lightening-laced bricks came down on him for arguing during a D.C. speech that some U.S. mosques, which reportedly preach jihad against. the United States, should be under surveillance. He made' a commonsense argument and refused. to falter under fire. In conservative circles, his biggest. perception problem is on· abortion.

However, in recent months Romney vetoed a bill that would have given kids access to emergency contraception withaut their parent's knowledge. That's good sense. With his experience with the cloning and the emergency contraception fight addi ng · to his now national focus, he clearly has had to rework his abortion position . If you're willing to believe him, there's something of a sensible evolution there. This summer he wrote: "In considering the issue of embryo cloning and embryo farming, I saw where the . harsh logic of abortion can lead - to the view of innocent new life as nothing more than research material or a commodity to · be exploited." He sees all these big culiure-of-life issues in a "Brave New World" framework. As more Americans meet Mitt Romney, I think they ' ll see beyond the handsome exterior and see . not j.ust a good salesman, but a thoughtful (and, yes, conser· vative) leader.

Facing a growing tide of anti-immi!!rant sen timent north of the border. the government has taken out ads urgin g Mexican workers to denounce rights violations in the United States. It also is hirin g . an American public relations f1nn to improve its image and counter growing U.S. concerns about immigration. Mexican President Vicente ;Fpx denounced the U.S. mea.. s~ res. passed by the House of ~epresentatives Friday, as ''shameful." His fore ign secretary. Lui s Ernesto Derbez, echoed his complaints on :Tuesday.· · :·'MexJco is not going to bear. it is not going to permit, and it will nor allow a stupid thing like this wall," Derbez ~aid. · "What has to be done is to rai se a storm of criticism. as is already happening, against this," he said, promising to turn the international community against the plan. At least I0 million ·Mexican citizens are believed to be .Jiving in the United States. U.S. authorities b~ lie ve about half of them do not have papers. In 2004, Mexican migrants north of the Rio Grande sent ~orne more than $16 billion · in remittances, according to Mexico's central bank, giving the nation . its second biggest source of foreign curnincy after oil exports. Some stretches of the U.S.Mexico border are already marked by fences, but in some heavily trafficked sections walls have already been erected by the United States, often using 10-foot-high section s of military surplus steel. Th,ose sections, which typically run several miles, can be found in southern Arizona and California. It's hard to underes'timate the ill-feeling thi: proposal has generated · in Mexico, where editorial pages are dominated by cartoons of Uncle Sam pulling up walls bearing anti-M~xican messages. Many Mexicans, esp,ecially those who have spent time working in the U.S., feel the proposal is a slap in tpe face to those who work hard and contribute to the U.S. economy. Fernando .Robledo, 42, of the western · state of Zacatecas. says the proposals could stem migration and disrupt families by breaking cross-border ties. - " When people heard thi s, it worried everybody, because thi s will affect everybody in some way, and their families." Robledo said. "They were incredulous. How could they do this, propose some- . thing like thi s?" Robledo, whose son and mother are U.S. citizens, predicted the measure "would unleash contlict within the United States" as small businesses fail for lack of workers. He ·said many Mexicans felt betrayed by the antiimmigrant-sentiment. "We learned to believe in the United States. We have a binational life," he said of Zacatecas, a state that has been .sending migrants north for . more than a >entury·. "It isn't just a feeling of rejection.

A month·., supply of the drug will have a wholesale price of about $4,300, according to a Bayer spokeswoman. It will be available almost immediately. The drug is being studied to see if it inhibits. other kinds of cancer. The primary trial for the drug involved 900 people 450 of whom took Nexavar, the rest taking a placebo. About 2.9 percent of the people taking the dmg developed heart problems - about seven times that of people taking the placebo. Dr. Susan Kelley. vice president of oncology product development at Bayer, said some of the heart problems included heart attacks. She could not provide a more specitlc breakdown. The eompanies said people on the treatment should have their blood pressure monitored for at least six weeks, and that high blood pressure was a possible side effect. About 40 percent of the patients on Nexavar had diarrhea and other gastrointestinal side effects, but FDA oftlcial s said those were generally manageable and that.the drug · had fewer toxic side effects than other cancer treatments. Other side effects include rash and blisters on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet. "This is clearly a watershed event in the kidney cancer community," said Bill Bro.

Slowing the spread of the disease may allow "being able to take a vacation that you always wanted to take, or to be around for a ·kid 's high school graduation."

I WASHINGTON - A new treatment that slows the spread of advanced kidne y cancer won government approval Tuesday, offering potential relief from a disease that kills 12,000 Americans a year. It 's the first new treatment option for · kidney cancer patients in more than a decade. In trial s, patients treated , with Nexavar, also known as sorafenib tosylate, went longer without their cancer progressing than those taking a placebo. The dru g was developed by Bayer and Onyx Pharmaceuticals. "We believe this represents, from a medical point of view, truly a lnajor advance," Dr. Richard Pazdur, director of the Food and Drug Administration's Office of Oncology Drug Products~ said in a conference call with feporters. The medicine is for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, the most common type of kidney cancer. The FDA said that in one trial, patients taking the drug went twice as long - a median of six months versus three months for those taking a placebo . without the cancer progressing or thy patient dying. "Rarely do we see a I00 percent improvement" in a new cancer treatment, Pazdur said, citing those tlgures. . The companies said people taking the drug also lived longer, although FDA officials said it was too soon to say conclusively that was the case. About I02 ,000 people .worldwide die from kidney cancer every year. In the U.S., about 32,000 people are diagnosed with the disease each year. It accounts for 3 percent of all adult cancers. It occurs most often in people aged 50 to 70, twice as often in men than in women.

"I feel very happy with this contract," Dote! said. "This team has a lot of tradition. and it pleases me to know that they want me to pitch for them." Dote! would get a $250,000 bonus if added to the 25-man active roster and could earn $3 million more in perfor- mance bonuses based on games.
