By REID SPENCER http://www.trbimg.com/img-51971e98/turbine/kwch-quick-work-on-pit-road-nets-edwards-pole-for-sprint-allstar-race-bowyer-is-6th-truex-wins-showdown-f-20130517/187/16x9 http://www.trbimg.com/img-51971e98/turbine/kwch-quick-work-on-pit-road-nets-edwards-pole-for-sprint-allstar-race-bowyer-is-6th-truex-wins-showdown-f-20130517/400/16x9 <p>Needless to say, Carl Edwards loved the new qualifying format for Saturday night&rsquo;s Sprint All-Star Race.</p> <p>Benefiting from a high-speed trip down pit road and a quick pit stop during the unique three-lap regimen in Friday&rsquo;s time trials, Edwards won the pole for the 29th running of NASCAR&rsquo;s non-points all-star event.</p> <p>With the pit road speed limit waived for the qualifying session, Edwards ran three laps&mdash;including a mandatory four-tire pit stop&mdash;in one minute 51.297 seconds, averaging 145.556 mph.</p> <p>The 15th of 19 drivers to make a qualifying attempt, Edwards knocked Kurt Busch (144.398 mph) off the provisional pole. Dale Earnhardt Jr. posted the second fastest average speed (144.398 mph) but drew a five-second penalty for a loose lug nut and will start 13th, leaving Busch on the front row beside Edwards.</p> <p>Greg Biffle will start third, followed by Kyle Busch and Joey Logano, in an event that pays $1 million to the winner&mdash;and another potential $1 million to a driver who can win all five segments. The event will be contested in segments of 20, 20, 20, 20 and 10 laps.</p> <p>&ldquo;This is so unbelievable, because we tried so hard,&rdquo; Edwards said. &ldquo;This is such an exciting qualifying format. There&rsquo;s so much pressure, and to get the pole&mdash;it&rsquo;s spectacular. Our car was fast. Our pit crew was fast. It was awesome.</p> <p>&ldquo;This is the way we want to start this weekend. We want to win this thing. We want to win all $2 million, all the segments. It&rsquo;s part of our plan&hellip; I vote we did this at every race track. It&rsquo;s so cool. It&rsquo;s a lot of fun.&rdquo;</p> <p>Defending race winner Jimmie Johnson was fourth out and first to blow the pit stop. Johnson screamed down pit road, but his No. 48 Chevrolet slid through his pit stall, forcing Johnson to back up before his crew could begin its work.</p> <p>With a stop of more than 20 seconds, Johnson averaged 135.608 mph. A penalty for a loose lug nut added five seconds to his time and cut his average speed to 130.160 mph. Johnson will start 18th on Saturday night.</p> <p>Kevin Harvick also slid through his pit stall, and had his time disallowed because his crew started service before the No. 29 Chevy was back in the box. But the miscue didn&rsquo;t matter, given that an engine change after Friday&rsquo;s practice will send Harvick to the rear of the field for the start of the race.</p> <p>In a conventional two-lap qualifying session that preceded the Sprint All-Star Race time trials, Martin Truex Jr. won the pole for Saturday&rsquo;s Sprint Showdown at 193.424 mph (27.918 seconds), edging Jamie McMurray (192.699 mph) for the top starting spot.</p> <p>The top two finishers in the Showdown, which features a field of 23 cars this year, will transfer into the main event. Winless since 2007, Truex is a veteran of the Showdown, and he confessed to being envious of those who were exempt into the All-Star Race.</p> <p>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m definitely jealous that I&rsquo;m not out there tonight,&rdquo; Truex said after winning the pole. &ldquo;For an event like this, it&rsquo;s neat to see them mix it up and do something different because it&rsquo;s an all-star race. There&rsquo;s not points here. You don&rsquo;t have to go by the book.</p> <p>&ldquo;This is the weekend where you want to throw out the rules and make new stuff up, which generally they like to do.&rdquo;</p> <p>&nbsp;---------</p> <p>Kansas native Clint Bowyer had a decent day of All-Star race qualifying. He will roll off 6th on Saturday night.</p> <p>"Just needed a little bit -- I'm a second off or something. &nbsp;Our lap could have been better, I could have been better coming onto pit road -- all those little things add up to being so close," said Bowyer.</p> <p>"Pretty exciting deal and pretty wild. &nbsp;Let me tell you, that's about all you want coming onto pit road at one of these mile-and-a-half tracks like that. &nbsp;I'm glad that they cleared pit road because I just knew that somehow I was going to climb over that pit road wall and make an embarrassment out of all of us, but thankfully I got through it and so far not so bad."</p> <br /> 2013-05-17 23:27:46.0 http://www.kwch.com/sports/kwch-quick-work-on-pit-road-nets-edwards-pole-for-sprint-allstar-race-bowyer-is-6th-truex-wins-showdown-f-20130517,0,2994526.story kwch-gm-sports-oakland-rallies-to-beat-the-royals-20130517 Oakland rallies to beat the Royals May 17, 2013 Adam Rosales hit a go-ahead home run leading off the eighth inning, Josh Donaldson also connected and the Oakland Athletics beat the Kansas City Royals 2-1 on Friday night. http://www.trbimg.com/img-519709ba/turbine/kwch-gm-sports-oakland-rallies-to-beat-the-royals-20130517/187/16x9 http://www.trbimg.com/img-519709ba/turbine/kwch-gm-sports-oakland-rallies-to-beat-the-royals-20130517/400/16x9 Adam Rosales hit a go-ahead home run leading off the eighth inning, Josh Donaldson also connected and the Oakland Athletics beat the Kansas City Royals 2-1 on Friday night.<br /> <br />Sean Doolittle (3-0) pitched the eighth for the win in relief of Jarrod Parker as the reigning AL West champions earned just their third victory in the last 11 games.<br /> <br />Oakland finally got to James Shields (2-4) in the late innings, nearly 10 months after he pitched a three-hit shutout here last July 31 for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Pima (50-18) will square off with No. 2-seed Salt Lake (UT) CC Saturday morning at 10 a.m. (MDT), for the right to advance to play #8-seed Wallace State (AL) CC for the NJCAA national title. The NJCAA National Championship game will begin at 12 noon (MDT), with a if-necessary game to follow at 2 p.m. (MDT).</p> <p class="MsoPlainText">Pima bolted out of the gate for a quick 2-0 first-inning lead, thanks in part to a two-run home run off the bat of Maria Ortiz. The Aztecs struck again for two more runs in the third as pitcher Yvette Alvarez helped her own cause by connecting on a two-run homer of her own to stake PCC to a 4-0 advantage.</p> <p class="MsoPlainText">Trailing 6-1 heading into its final at-bat, Butler CC strung together a pair of hits and an Aztec error to set up a two-out, two-run double from Ashley Malone to pull to with three runs, but Alvarez ended any hope of a Grizzlies comeback by inducing a game-ending flyout to complete the upset win.</p> <p class="MsoPlainText">Alvarez struck out four and scattered 10 hits and four runs, one earned, over seven innings to pick up the win. The Aztec hurler also picked up two of Pima&rsquo;s eight hits for good measure.</p> <p class="MsoPlainText">Butler hurler Maggie Ham, who pitched in her third game of the day overall, ran out of steam as she was touched up for four runs and four hits in three innings of work.</p> <p class="MsoPlainText">#1 Butler CC <span style="mso-tab-count:

Championship in school history with a 6-5 victory over No. 19 Oklahoma Friday evening at Tointon Family Stadium.

Witt scored on a bases-loaded passed ball in the bottom of the ninth to send the 18<sup>th</sup>-ranked Wildcats to their first Big 12 Championship in school history with a 6-5 victory over No. 19 Oklahoma Friday evening at Tointon Family Stadium.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">K-State is now 15-7 in Big 12 play to claim its fourth ever regular-season conference championship and the first since 1933. The Wildcats improved to 38-15 on the year overall with two regular-season games remaining. The Sooners fell to 35-18 overall and 12-10 in league action.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">In addition to their first conference title in 80 years, the Wildcats, who were predicted to finish seventh in the Big 12 Preseason Coaches&rsquo; Poll, made the biggest jump by a regular-season championship since the preseason poll began in 1999</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">K-State also became just the second Big 12 school and the fourth nationally in the BCS era to win conference titles in football, men&rsquo;s basketball and baseball during the same academic year.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Witt led off the bottom of the ninth with a walk against Sooner bullpen ace Jacob Evans<strong> </strong>(6-2) and was sacrificed over to second base by Shane Conlon. After OU elected to intentionally walk Jared King, Evans hit Austin Fisher to load the bases.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Pitching to Jon Davis, Evans threw a ball high and away, which skipped off catcher Anthony Hermelyn&rsquo;s glove and went to the backstop, allowing Witt to slide in safely for the Wildcats second walk-off win via a passed ball this year.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Kansas State was led by a trio of players with two-hit games in King, Davis and Ross Kivett. Jake Matthys (8-0) broke the K-State freshman record for wins and moved into a tie for eighth place in overall victories in school history. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">The championship wouldn&rsquo;t come easy, however, as the Wildcats trailed Oklahoma and potential No. 1 overall draft pick Jonathan Gray 4-0 after the<strong> </strong>Sooners scored three in the fourth and one in the sixth. In the bottom of the sixth, K-State strung together three-straight singles &ndash; the latter by Fisher &ndash; to plate the Cats&rsquo; first run.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Following a ground out, Mitch Meyer came through with a clutch two-run single to get K-State back in the game at 4-3.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Witt tied the game with a single up in the middle in the seventh inning, while Davis led off the eighth inning with a triple that landed just inside the right-field foul line. Hill elected to pinch hit Lance Miles, who drove in the go-head run on a single to right field.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Looking to close the door in the top of the ninth, Matthys surrendered only his second home run of the season, a one-out solo shot by Jack Mayfield, to tie the game at 5-5.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Oklahoma was led offensively by Hermelyn and Garrett Carey, who each went 3-for-4. Hermelyn had one RBI, while Hunter Haley was 2-for-3 with two RBI. Gray finished the game allowing four runs on nine hits with a walk and three strikeouts in 6.1 innings.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small;">Kansas State and Oklahoma continue their three-game series Saturday with a 6:30 p.m., contest at Tointon Family Stadium. Just standing-room only tickets are available for Saturday&rsquo;s game and can be purchased at the Tointon Family Stadium box office beginning 60 minutes prior to first pitch.</span></p> 2013-05-17 21:15:18.0 2013-11-15 22:00:00.0 http://www.kwch.com/sports/kwch-gm-sports-kstate-wins-big-12-baseball-crown-20130517,0,5928023.story kwch-gm-sports-wingnuts-rally-comes-up-short-vs-kc-20130517 Wingnuts rally comes up short vs. KC May 17, 2013 http://www.trbimg.com/img-5196faaa/turbine/kwch-gm-sports-wingnuts-rally-comes-up-short-vs-kc-20130517/187/16x9 http://www.trbimg.com/img-5196faaa/turbine/kwch-gm-sports-wingnuts-rally-comes-up-short-vs-kc-20130517/400/16x9 <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:AllowPNG/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]--> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;">The Wichita Wingnuts (1-1) lost 5-4 to the Kansas City T-Bones (1-1) at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium on Friday night.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> The T-Bones took the lead for good when they scratched out a run in the top of the seventh inning.&nbsp; Tied at 3-3, Brandon Pearl chopped a single just passed a drawn-in Ryan Khoury at shortstop to drive in Felix Molina from third base with the go-ahead run.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> In the top of the ninth, Kansas City manufactured an insurance run.&nbsp; Pearl led off with an infield single, took second base on a groundout to second from Kennard Jones, and took third on a groundout to shortstop from Justin Bass.&nbsp; Brandon Jones beat out a high chopper to shorstop that scored Pearl with the T-Bones' fifth tally.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> C.J. Ziegler led off the bottom of the ninth with a solo home run to left field against T-Bones' closer Jhonny Montoya that cut the lead to 5-4, but Montoya eventually stranded the tying run on first base to record the save.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> Kansas City starter Aaron Meade earned the win, allowing three unearned runs in seven innings.&nbsp; Meade gave up four hits, two walks, and struck out four.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span

class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> The T-Bones scored three runs in the top of the fourth, all with two outs, against Wingnuts' starter Chris Smith.&nbsp; Matt Padgett, Devin Goodwin, and Felix Molina hit consecutive RBI singles to make it 3-0.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> With Khoury on second and two outs in the bottom of the sixth, Molina made a throwing error on a John Rodriguez groundball that resulted in runners on the corners.&nbsp; Ziegler fought off a single to right field that scored Khoury, while Cole Armstrong followed with a two-run double to left that tied the game.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> Smith took a no-decision, allowing three earned runs on four hits in six innings.&nbsp; Smith struck out eight and walked one.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black;"><br /> Nick Walters worked one and one-third scoreless relief innings.</span></p> <!--[if gte mso

Following is his analysis on the Preakness Stakes.)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>There are always lots of hard luck stories in the Kentucky Derby, and some of those hard luck horses come to the Preakness looking to set the record straight. Several of those guys are here to take on Orb. And a handful more Derby grumblers are skipping the Preakness to set their sights on the Belmont. However, recent history shows that the Derby winner tends to back up the Derby win and beat most if not all of those Derby finishers again. Orb should follow suit and run well in the Preakness. Orb&rsquo;s win was no fluke. He dominated the Derby. He had a lot to overcome in the Derby, and did so impressively, so there is no reason to bail on him now.<br /><br />Of the hard luck Derby horses, Will Take Charge had the biggest helping of bad luck two weeks ago. He made a bold move alongside Orb but hit traffic and lost his momentum. He could certainly have hit the board, and some think he could have won. Oxbow and Goldencents were part of the hot Derby pace, and both come to the Preakness expecting a more favorable, reasonable pace. Of these two, Oxbow ran a better race in the Derby. He was forwardly placed early, and still held on to be a respectable sixth. Goldencents will likely try to wire the race, but will do so at the most reasonable pace possible. There is not a lot of speed in the race, but he will still struggle with the Preakness distance. Mylute took advantage of the fast pace in the Derby to close well late. He should take the same approach.<br /><br />Of the newcomers, Govenor Charlie and Departing both come to the Preakness with just one loss. Both have a classic stalking style, which should give them no excuses. They should be able to stay close to an honest but reasonable pace.<br /><br /><strong>What to bet</strong></p> <p><strong></strong>Orb is the indicated horse to win. He has given no reason to bet around him other than the fact that he will be a heavy favorite. His post position should not be a problem since he will gladly concede the early lead. If the front runners dish out a softer pace than he saw in the Derby, that should be no problem either. He has the ability to lay closer to the pace than he did in the Derby. Finding value will have to come from place and show positions.<br /><br />In recent years, the Preakness trifecta has had lots of Derby starters in it. This year should be no exception. This year&rsquo;s newcomers will get lots of betting, but they have not proven themselves against top horses, as many of the Derby starters have. The horses that finished up the track in the Derby will be good value. Bet Orb to win. Key 1 over 2,5,7,9 in exacta and trifecta wagers. Wheel 1 over 2,7 over 2,5,7,9 over 2,5,7,9 in superfecta wagers.<br /><br /><strong>For value</strong></p> <p>Will Take Charge will be most overlooked in the betting because his eighth-place finish in the Derby looks worse than it actually was. Orb should finish ahead of him again, but he has a shot at reversing the outcome with a great trip and another strong finish. His odds may stay near 12:1 due to the newcomers drawing some bets. At that price, he&rsquo;s a good value.</p> <p><em>Liam Durbin is owner/handicapper for e-ponies.com.</em></p> <p class="p1"><style type="text/css"> /* Main div */ div.ent-music-must-reads { width: 620px; margin-top: 20px; display: block; overflow: hidden; font-style:none; } div.ent-must-reads a{ color:#000000; text-decoration: none;} /* Picks */ div.ent-pick { float: left; margin: 0px auto; width: 206px; } div.ent-pick img{ margin:3px 7px 2px 8px; height: 105px; width:187px; display: inline-block; float: left; } div.ent-pick a img { border: none; } div.ent-pick a { margin: 3px; } /* Headers */ div.article#content h2#title { font-size:16px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 4px; <!-- font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",Times,serif; --> font-style:none; } div.article#content h3#ent-hed { margin: 3px 0px 0px 6px; width: 199px; <!-- font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",Times,serif; --> font-style:none; } </style> <!-- BEGIN EDITING HERE --> <div class="ent-music-must-reads"> <h2 id="title">PHOTOS AND MORE</h2> <!-- First story --> <div class="ent-pick"> <!-- Image and image link--> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/horse-racing/preakness/bal-preaknessinfield-pg,0,7196896.photogallery" target="_top"> <img src="http://www.trbimg.com/img-51963b7a/turbine/bal-preakness-infield-20130517/187/16x9" alt="Preakness infield party scene [Pictures]"/> </a> <!-- Headline and headline link --> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/horse-racing/preakness/bal-preaknessinfield-pg,0,7196896.photogallery" target="_top"> <h3 id="ent-hed">Preakness infield party scene [Pictures]</h3> </a> </div> <!-- Second story --> <div class="ent-pick"> <!-- Image and image link--> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/horse-racing/preakness/bal-preakness-stakes-timeline-20130419,0,4458571.htmlpage" target="_top"> <img src="http://www.trbimg.com/img-516f090c/turbine/bal-pimlico-in-1873-20130417/600/187/16x9" alt="Preakness Stakes timeline" /> </a> <!-- Headline and headline link --> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/horse-racing/preakness/bal-preakness-stakes-timeline-20130419,0,4458571.htmlpage" target="_top"> <h3 id="ent-hed">Preakness Stakes timeline</h3> </a> </div> <!-- Third story --> <div class="ent-pick"> <!-- Image and image link--> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/bthesite/bal-celebrities-you-may-see-at-preakness-pictures-20130512,0,2922990.photogallery" target="_top"> <img src="http://www.trbimg.com/img-519642ff/turbine/bal-preakness-promo-image-20130517/187/16x9" /> </a> <!-- Headline and headline link --> <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/bthesite/bal-celebrities-you-may-see-at-preakness-pictures-20130512,0,2922990.photogallery" target="_top"> <h3 id="ent-hed">Celebrities you may see at Preakness 2013 [Pictures] </h3> </a> </div> </div></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><em><br /></em></p> 2013-05-17 16:53:51.0 2013-06-15 21:00:00.0 http://www.kwch.com/sports/bal-preakness-analysis-and-betting-tips-20130516,0,1057913.story kwch-gm-sports-former-us-open-champ-ken-venturi-dies-20130517 Former US Open champ Ken Venturi dies May 17, 2013 Former U.S. Open champion Ken Venturi has died just 12 days after he was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame.

  13. Torture without excuses

    The autopsy gave a spare account of how the 52-year-old man died. He suffered blunt force injuries on his torso and legs, and abrasions on his left wrist indicated he had been tied or shackled down. One of his neck bones was fractured. Death came "as a result of asphyxia (lack of oxygen to the brain) due to strangulation," and it was ruled a homicide.

    Margaret Thatcher will be remembered in her homeland as the conservative &ldquo;Iron Lady&rdquo; who transformed Britain from a strife-torn welfare state to a market-driven capitalist bastion. But for many of those who endured Soviet communist dictators and a world on the brink of nuclear peril, her shining accomplishment was being the first Western leader to see hope for a new world order.
