(AP) — Authorities say a man living in a suburban Philadelphia assisted-living facility has lost his housing subsidy after officials found a prostitute underneath his bed. Uri Monson tells The Intelligencer in Doylestown the man, believed to be in his 70s, paid prostitutes using profits earned from peddling alcohol to fellow residents. Monson says the man was a “more mobile gentleman” who went on booze runs for his neighbors. The incident was reported Thursday after county commissioners authorized contract extensions with private facilities housing former residents of the closed countyowned assisted living facility. The county paid more than $1 million to subsidize assisted living care for 21 seniors last year.

Attorney General Peter Kilmartin, only to find they had to take their boxes back home due to an overloaded truck. Shred-a-Thon proves too big of a hit Visitors must wait to unload their old documents By JOSEPH B. NADEAU [email protected] LINCOLN — Attorney General Peter Kilmartin kicked off his series of Shred-a-Thons across the state under his agency’s efforts to curb identity fraud, but found them to be a lot more popular than expected. The first of the events, held at the Pilgrim Senior Center at 27 Pilgrim Parkway, Warwick, in the morning partially filled the truck used to collect materials for shredding. It arrived at the Lincoln Senior Center at 150 Jenckes Hill Road for a collection from noon to 2 p.m., and the remaining space was filled up in about a half-hour. After the truck left to carry its cargo to the Massachusetts shredding processing facility contracted for the program, several of Kilmartin’s staff stayed behind to inform arriving residents that they would need to attend one of the next scheduled events to dispose of their personnel records and financial See SHRED, page A2 Brockton casino proposal goes to voters $650 million resort plan on the ballot today By PHILIP MARCELO Associated Press BROCKTON, Mass. — The fate of a proposed $650 million resort casino for the Brockton Fairgrounds rests with city voters. The southeastern Massachusetts city, perhaps best known as the hometown of boxing great Rocky Marciano, is holding a special election Tuesday on the proposal, which calls for a red brick casino complex housing a 225-room hotel, an event center and a number of restaurants on about 45 acres. Voter approval is a critical step for the project to be considered for a state gambling license. The Brockton plan is competing with proposals in New Bedford and Somerset for Massachusetts’ third and final resort casino license. Supporters say the project represents well-paid jobs and additional revenue for a city sorely needing both. “What we have is spread very thin,” said Brian Currivan, a city resident who was volunteering at the procasino “Yes for Brockton” campaign headquarters Monday afternoon. “The police department is so understaffed. The schools have teacher layoffs coming up. There are potholes that need fixing.” The project promises to create about 1,400 temporary construction jobs and 1,500 permanent casino jobs paying an average of $50,000 a year. Qualified Brockton residents would get hiring preference for casino jobs. Additionally, Brockton’s “host community agreement” requires the developers to pay the city $3 million upfront and at least $10 million a year when the casino opens its door. Critics are concerned city youth will suffer: The casino would be located next to Brockton High School. “The location is horrible. It’s bad enough kids don’t want to go to school. Now you’re going to put a casino next door?” said Yvonne Pierre, who was among a trio of women on Main Street on Monday who said they opposed the plan. “Maybe if they wanted to put it elsewhere — like the other side of town See CASINO, page A2 LINCOLN HINC.omes FREE Roofing ROOFING & GUTTERS Estimates!

However, it did not appear that any person, vehicle, or home had been struck by the gunfire, Brandley added.

Hernandez facing intimidation charges Shot witness in second murder case: Prosecutors BOSTON (AP) — Former New England Patriots player and convicted murderer Aaron Hernandez has been charged with trying to silence a witness in a double murder case against him by shooting him in the face and leaving him for dead, prosecutors said Monday. Hernandez was indicted Friday by a grand jury in Boston on a charge of wit- ness intimidation, according to the office of Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley. It’s the latest criminal charge against the former star tight end, who once had a $40 million contract with the Patriots. Aaron Hernandez’s Hernandez lawyers didn't Murder immediately Trial return a message seeking comment on the new charge. See HERNANDEZ, page A2 FROM PAGE ONE/NATION A2 THE TIMES Murder and Deborah DeBare, executive director of the Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence, said in a joint statement yesterday. Police say Santurri was returning to her apartment after visiting her mother Sunday when Stanfield attacked her in front of her 21year-old daughter. East Providence Police Chief Christopher Parella says Stanfield stabbed Santurri multiple times before fleeing with the knife. According to the chief, Stanfield ambushed Santurri as she was pulling out her keys to enter her apartment. The attack started outside the unit, and continued inside. The victim’s daughter was upstairs at the time. Hernandez The 25-year-old was convicted last month of killing Odin Lloyd, who was dating his fiancee’s sister, in June 2013. He also faces two counts of murder in Boston, where he is accused of gunning down two men in 2012 after one caused him to spill his drink at a nightclub. The latest charge is connected to the Boston killings. The Suffolk County DA’s office said the victim of the intimidation was a witness to those killings, which happened on July 16, 2012. “Hernandez allegedly shot him in the face on the morning of Feb. 13, 2013, and left him to die on the side of the road in Riviera Beach, Florida, after the witness made a remark about the homicides,” the office said in a news release. The office did not identify the witness, but it is clear from several other court proceedings that it is former Hernandez friend Alexander Bradley. Bradley has sued Hernandez in Florida, saying that on Feb. 13, 2013, he, Hernandez and two Casino — I wouldn’t mind. I understand the job opportunities. But where it’s at? That’s just not right.” Opponents have been vastly outspent by Mass Gaming and Entertainment, the project’s developer and a subsidiary of Rush Street Gaming, a Chicago-based company that operates casinos in Pennsylvania and Illinois. Shred records. In one way, it was a good thing that a growing number of people are now aware of the dangers of tossing personnel information into the trash or landfill, but Emily Martineau, a spokesman for Kilmartin staying on at the Senior Center with consumer protection staffers Maria Pagliaro and Jamie Kamborian, said she was sorry about the inconvenience it may have caused the residents showing up. Stanfield led police on a halfmile chase through the woods before he was apprehended after being stuck in thick mud and water off Peach Orchard Drive. According to police, Santurri filed a police report Friday saying Stanfield had violated a restraining order she had against him. Police issued a warrant for Stanfield’s arrest that same day, two days before Santurri’s murder. According to Lyons and DeBare, police receive more than 20 domestic violence calls every day in Rhode Island, and even with the protections that exist for victims through Rhode Island's criminal justice system, domestic violence remains an epidemic. “Our systems need to take victim concerns and violations of restraining orders seriously,” they said. “Violations of protective other men went to a strip club in Miami. According to court papers, Hernandez and Bradley got into an argument at the club and then again later. Prosecutors in the Lloyd case said in a filing made during that trial that Bradley then made “disrespectful remarks” about Hernandez. “Shortly thereafter, the car pulled over in an isolated industrial area, where Bradley was shot between the eyes. The defendant exited the car and quickly dumped Bradley’s body on the ground before fleeing the scene,” according to a The company has spent at least $1 million on campaign advertisements, staff and other costs; the opposition group, “Stand UP for Brockton,” has spent just over $3,000. Massachusetts has already awarded resort casino licenses in the state’s western and eastern regions: an $800 million MGM project in Springfield expected to open in late 2017 and a $1.7 billion Wynn Resorts project in “We had two people show up with pickup trucks with stuff, and that may have been one of the reasons we filled up early,” she said. The office does ask participants to limit their shredding to two banker-sized boxes, and hopefully that word will get out for the next collection, she offered. The program in the past has also had a shredding machine at the collection site, but more recently the office has contracted with a firm specializing in such safe disposal projects as a more environmentally safe orders are an indication of stalking, which is a serious and significant homicide risk factor. When such lethality factors are present in a case, it is critical that systems prioritize taking immediate action to protect victims and their families.” Lyons and DeBare say because domestic violence can escalate quickly, bystanders close to the situation, including community members and loved ones, must heed all warning signs. “The bottom line is that we must build systemic intolerance and community connectedness to stop domestic violence from being a threat to every Rhode Islander’s future,” they said. “We cannot hesitate any longer. We cannot afford to lose another life to domestic violence, to watch it traumatize another child or dev- astate another family.” “People we know and love are suffering, and an alarming number of Rhode Island children are witnessing violence in the home,” they added. “To break the cycle of violence, to create safe, connected communities for our families, neighbors, and the generations to come, we must at once take victim concerns seriously and also work to stop domestic violence from ever occurring in the first place.” Nationally, the Surgeon General has declared domestic violence the leading cause of injury to women between the ages of 15 to 44, and in Massachusetts, 13 percent of all families entering the Emergency Assistance system cited domestic violence as the reason for homelessness. Last month, Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker unveiled an filing from the Bristol district attorney’s office. Bradley was found soon after by people who worked in the area and he survived, although he lost an eye. He refused to cooperate with police at the time and no charges were brought in Florida. While the shooting happened in Florida, Conley’s office said Hernandez could legally be prosecuted in Massachusetts because he is accused of willfully causing injury to a witness with the intent to impede a criminal investigation in Suffolk County.

Jackie Wesolowski, of Lincoln, and Janis Pollock, of North Smithfield, were among the residents showing up, only to find they had to take their boxes back home. Pollock said she had some personal papers that had been collecting in her home that she wanted to dispose of properly, and has found a home shredder she used in the past to be unreliable. “I will probably go to the Johnston collection on Wednesday,” Pollock said after speaking with executive order to re-launch the Governor’s Council to address sexual assault and domestic violence. Over the next year, the council will be charged with implementing Chapter 260 domestic violence legislation, enacted in 2014 and reviewing programs aimed at reducing sexual assault and domestic violence in the Commonwealth.

Bradley was called by prosecutors to testify in the Lloyd trial, but the judge would not allow him to discuss the Florida shooting. Instead, he told jurors about resort casino.

Kilmartin’s office noted that scores of Americans have their identities stolen every year, with the U.S. Department of Justice estimating that approximately 16.6 million people nationwide experience identity theft annually. Although data breaches at major retailers more commonly make the news, many scam artists use much more low-tech methods to gain access to your personal information — like digging through your trash, according to Kilmartin. Kilmartin’s shred-a-thons were held during National Consumer Protection Week in March in the past, but this year were moved to May, from May 11 to May 16, due to the difficult winter the state experienced this year. Holding the shred-athons after tax season also gives consumers the opportunity to dispose of unneeded financial documents, Kilmartin’s office noted. Poll: Americans doubt high court will rule fairly on ACA case By RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR and EMILY SWANSON Associated Press WASHINGTON — Many people in the United States doubt that the Supreme Court can rule fairly in the latest litigation jeopardizing President Barack Obama’s health care law. The Associated Press-GfK poll finds only 1 person in 10 is highly confident that the justices will rely on objective interpretations of the law rather than their personal opinions. Nearly half, 48 percent, are not confident of the court’s impartiality. “That lawsuit should have never made it this far,” said Hal Lewis, a retiree from Scranton, Pennsylvania. “If they rule for the people who are bringing the suit, it could be close to the destruction of Obamacare in this country,” added Lewis, THE TIMES 23 Exchange Street, Pawtucket, RI 02860 Newsroom fax: (401) 727-9250 www.pawtuckettimes.com e-mail: [email protected] [email protected] SUBSCRIBER SERVICES Delivery by 7 a.m. weekdays, 8 a.m. on weekends, holidays Call by 9:00 a.m. to receive guaranteed redelivery.

Visit Our New In a twist, the poll found that opponents of the law, who tend to be politically conservative, have less confidence in the objectivity of a court with a conservative majority. Among foes, 60 percent are not confident, compared with 44 percent of the law’s supporters. “That is incredibly powerful that a court associated with conservative views is not well trusted by Republicans,” said Robert Blendon, who tracks public opinion on health care at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Blendon said the law’s opponents may be remembering the court’s 2012 ruling in which Chief Justice John Roberts cast the key vote to uphold the law. Regardless of how the public feels about the court’s internal deliberations, a majority wants the justices to allow subsidies to continue flowing in all 50 states, an opinion in line with the administration’s position.

Lewis is one of the relatively few people — 13 percent — who say they are closely following the case, called King v. Burwell. Opponents of the law argue that as literally written, it only allows the federal government to subsidize premiums in states that have set up their own insurance markets, also known as exchanges. Most states have not done so, relying instead on the federal HealthCare.gov website. The Obama administration says opponents are misreading the Affordable Care Act by focusing on just a few words. When the legislation is read in context, it’s clear that lawmakers wanted to help uninsured people in every state, the administration maintains. If the court sides with the plaintiffs, it’s estimated that 8 million to 9 million people across more than 30 states could lose coverage. They would be unable to afford their premiums without the subsidies, which are keyed to household income. A decision is expected late in June. 201 4 Judges will let personal opinions color verdict, majority believes Best Countertop Store 840 Cumberland Hill Rd., Woonsocket, RI 02895 set up their own health insurance markets. It’s less clear what people would want Congress to do if the court were to side with the law’s opponents. A ruling for the plaintiffs would invalidate health insurance subsidies in states without their own exchanges. Many of those states have Republican governors and legislatures that have resisted the health care law. The poll found that a bare majority, 51 percent, wants Congress to amend the law to make it clear that people are entitled to help regardless of what their state leaders do. But 44 percent prefer that Congress leave the law as is and let states decide whether they want to create insurance exchanges that would allow their residents to receive subsidies. “It suggests there’s a political opening for Republicans to offer a way for people to continue receiving subsidies through some sort of state arrangement,” Blendon said. State leaders would have to move fast. Some legal experts say it would be only weeks before the subsidies dry up; others say it’s possible the administration could continue payments through the end of this year. Ethan Levesque of Augusta, Maine, said he is troubled by the federal law’s requirement that virtually all U.S. residents get health insurance or risk fines from the IRS. “I feel like it should actually be the determination of the states to decide health coverage,” said Levesque, a customer service representative for a telecommunications company. “There is definitely nothing wrong with health care whatsoever, but it's the way that this has been presented to people that I have problems with,” he said. The poll found sharp splits on whether Congress should intervene. Two-thirds of Democrats think Congress should amend the law to save the subsidies, but only 31 percent of Republicans shared that view. Half of independents want Congress to update the law if necessary, while 41 percent think it should be kept as is. Leading congressional Republicans have said they would step in to prevent health insurance markets from unraveling, but they have not spelled out details. It is estimated that 15 million to 17 million adults have gained coverage since the fall of 2013, when the law’s big insurance expansion began. Abuse Santana.

Walsh School for the Performing and Visual Arts, 350 Division St, Pawtucket, on Wednesday, May 27. This year’s production is billed ‘Ten Shades of Dance’ and has spectacular pieces choreographed by the 10 senior dancers, illustrating different elements of dance with a message that will stay with you forever. Tickets will be sold at the door for $5 per person and $3 for children under 18. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show starts at 7. Your first love is someone you’ll never forget, in this contemporary piece, by Ashley Rios, you’ll understand that nothing and no one will never compare to that first love. It’s not the Same shows how your first love will always have a special place no matter what. In Reasons, Soyde-Yahve Reales uses a fusion of modern dance and hip hop to reflect on the idea that “Relationships are commitments, but sometimes temptation and decisions can reflect how one feels towards one another in certain situations, but the perfect person is right in front of you and your blind to that.” Diana Serra uses contemporary dance to show emotions that express an emptiness or feeling of loneliness, even when surrounded by “friends.” There is a breaking point where an individual can no longer recognize what is in their head and reality. Voices inside Me explores this idea and takes you inside a young woman’s head who is experiencing this very situation. Charissa Menard manipulates this idea through the art of contemporary dance. Page 2 Ten Shade of Dance Da Copa, a piece choreographed by Pedro Pastor, incorporates many dance styles that tell the story about how life can change around you and searching for answers until you find what it is that, in reality, holds you down. Brianna Raymond’s jazz piece Flawless embraces a woman's femininity and confidence in herself, amplifying strength among women. Noelle Wright’s, Mystical Allure, also explores the themes of confidence and femininity, but does so in a very dark and mysterious way, which invites you into the world of seduction and mystical fantasy. Love that often involves self-sacrifice and becoming something more than human, possibly immortal, is portrayed through modern dance by Valeria Serna. Rita Jaquez, explores the same themes in her contemporary piece about broken hearts, and how people always pretend to be fine when deep inside they’re hurting. When it comes to love, showing such affection is hard but through hip hop dance, Michael Diaz explores the idea that love and dedication is possible, in his piece, You Earned It.

After a week of peaceful protests following the death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore, “Charm City” was in flames. The authorities declared a state of emergency and deployed the National Guard. In less than a year since the killing of Michael Brown by a Ferguson, Missouri police officer, numerous cases of police beatings, shootings, and killings of unarmed civilians — from New York to South Carolina, and from California to Baltimore — have grabbed the public’s attention. Even white people like myself who identify with the “Black Lives Matter” slogan — the phrase that’s come to represent the movement against police violence — are stunned and emotionally drained by the almost daily reports of senseless killing and police brutality. We’re tempted to turn away. But we can’t, because this issue is here to stay. While we all condemn acts of violence, we must try to dig a little deeper to understand what’s happened in Baltimore and around the country. And we all have a responsibility to be a part of the solution — to channel this rage into real reform of the police. Baltimore is wracked by pervasive poverty, racial segregation, and crime — a grim reality popularized for the rest of the country by the HBO drama “The Wire.” One in four families in the city live in poverty, nearly double the national rate. Baltimore is also troubled by a long history of police misconduct and violence against its residents. According to The Baltimore Sun, the city has paid $5.7 million in settlements from police-brutality cases since 2011. That history helps explain the explosive reaction by a small number of people to Freddie Gray’s alleged murder by six cops charged in his death. Gray died after having his spine severed while in police custody — without any clear reason for his arrest. Deaths like his are all too common. And police are almost never held accountable. This time, however, the state of Maryland has leveled charges against the officers involved, ranging from false imprisonment GUEST COMMENTARY By LeeAnn Hall to assault to second-degree murder. That prompted celebrations in Baltimore, but further clashes are all but certain without real reform. What else can be done? A few things come to mind: Racialized police practices like stop-andfrisk and “zero tolerance” policing must end in Baltimore and across the nation. Cities should adopt alternatives to jails and prisons for nonviolent crimes. Programs like Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD) in Seattle have proven effective in reducing recidivism by diverting low-level drug offenders to rehab instead of prison. Other communities have found restorative justice effective, involving offenders in the process of repairing any harm they may have caused. Most importantly, governments must follow the example set in Baltimore in the wake of Gray’s killing. All police officers must be held accountable for abuses such as beatings, killings, and corruption. Many critics of Baltimore’s uprising have invoked Martin Luther King Jr.’s appeals to nonviolence. But don’t forget King’s other essential reminder: “A riot is the language of the unheard.” The only way to show that our country has heard the anger and sorrow of black communities is to end impunity for police officers who commit acts of brutality. This isn’t a Baltimore problem or a Ferguson problem or a black problem. It’s a national problem, and everyone has a stake in solving it. Harsh policing and more prisons haven’t reduced crime or solved the problems of our communities. The only way to avoid another Baltimore is to overhaul standard police practices across the nation.

Distributed via OtherWords.org For-profit colleges prove to be just another scam on students This spring, around 100 indebted college grads came up with a novel strategy for dealing with their crushing debt: They simply weren’t going to pay it. These students — the so-called “Corinthian 100? — attended schools owned by the now-defunct for-profit education conglomerate Corinthian Colleges. With over 100 campuses in the United States and Canada, Corinthian’s schools — including Everest and Heald College campuses, among others — offered “career-oriented” degrees in fields such as nursing, business, criminal justice, and information technology. Since at least 2007, the company has been under investigation by various state and federal agencies for pushing students into high-interest loans and defrauding them with false promises of high-paying careers. I’m a former corporate finance manager for Corinthian — and I support the debt strikers. I agree with the Debt Collective, a grassroots organization with which I’m affiliated, that the federal government should cancel Corinthian students’ loans. Most students at for-profit colleges like Corinthian are targeted because of their vulnerable circumstances. They have dire financial needs and, because they’re often the first in their families to attend college, they don’t have the kind of knowledge and experience about college admissions that wealthier students do. They’re lured in by salespeople disguised as helpful admissions officials, who offer students a convenient schedule — along with empty promises of higher earnings and a better life. What students get instead is a lifetime of debt and a worthless degree. Before Corinthian outsourced my job to another company in 2012, I helped develop some of those recruitment techniques. I know firsthand that the industry is designed to desensitize employees to the human cost of what they’re doing. Through high-pressure micromanagement tactics — such as evaluating employee performance based on the number of students recruited — Corinthian employees were encouraged to hide facts about the school that would have turned prospective students away. Once a student signs the enrollment agreement, he or she is basically reduced to a student ID number in the minds of campus leaders and corporate executives. Does this number come with grant fund- ing? How many loan dollars does this number represent, and how much profit? That’s the kind of information management demands from admissions representa- GUEST COMMENTARY By Dawn Lueck tives and financial aid administrators on a weekly basis. The needs of the student are thrown out the window. When students become nothing but a number, it’s easier to take advantage of them. Tens of billions in federal student aid has flowed into for-profit college coffers and into investor pockets over the last two decades. It’s the students who are left on the hook. As a result of this relentless drive for profit, Corinthian students ended up borrowing more than they intended and often misunderstood the amount they would owe after graduation. That’s no accident: The process was designed to be easily misunderstood. The federal government and state authorities have investigated for-profit colleges for years. Earlier this year, the Department of Education helped Corinthian sell some of its failing schools, preventing some currently enrolled students from getting a debt discharge. When student debt strikers brought the issue to national attention, Corinthian was forced to shut down its remaining campuses. So far, the Department of Education has failed to give defrauded students the relief they deserve. Instead, these colleges’ manipulative tactics have left hundreds of thousands of people buried in debt for worthless degrees. This predatory system takes a toll on employees as well as students. The relentless demand to meet recruitment targets resulted in anxiety-related health problems for many of my former coworkers. I commend the Corinthian 100 for fighting back. I hope other current and former Corinthian employees will take inspiration from them and come forward to tell the truth about the for-profit college scam.

Cameron’s wizardry may put him in a corner Prime Minister David Cameron’s surprising success in winning an outright majority of seats in Britain’s Parliament is the result of a paradox: The center in Britain held and flew apart at the same time. Neither the polls nor the pundits predicted the extent of Cameron’s triumph in Thursday’s voting. While they have something to answer for, their miscalculations also reflected the Conservative leader’s ability to translate a very modest increase in his share of the overall vote into many more additional seats than anyone thought possible. On the latest count, Cameron’s Conservatives won just under 37 percent, roughly one percentage point more than they won five years ago. The center-left Labor Party, led by Ed Miliband, won roughly 30.5 percent, up about a E.J. Dionne point and a half. Yet Labor’s result was disastrous, in part because it was wiped out in Scotland by the separatist Scottish National Party. That the two big parties could not even manage 70 percent of the vote between them is one sign of Britain’s political distemper. Another is the electoral revolution in Scotland. Labor’s roots run deep north of the River Tweed. Scotland was always its bastion. Not this time. By giving the SNP all but three of Scotland’s 59 seats — Labor held 41 of them before the election — its voters signaled not only their frustration that Miliband’s party had taken them for granted over many years but also that they were fed up with London politicians altogether. Cameron profited twice over from the nationalist surge. Even on a better day, Labor could not have assembled a majority in Parliament without its Scottish base. And at the close of the campaign, Cameron almost certainly picked up votes in England by warning that Labor could only form a governing majority if it were willing to put the country in hock to separatists. Cameron presented himself as the man who would never pay a ransom and was thus the only choice for English voters who cared about political stability. But the price of this gambit could be high. The Conservative majority is a majority that is almost entirely English. Cameron’s approach stoked English nationalism and anti-Scottish feeling, which can only aggravate Scottish resentment. Containing British disintegration will be Cameron’s biggest second-term headache. His genius for cool political calculation was on display in another respect: In embracing the once center-left Liberal Democrats as coalition allies in his first term, he crushed them. Many on the right wing of Cameron’s party disliked governing with the Lib Dems. But Cameron understood that allying with Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg would allow him to live up to his promise to create a more moderate brand of Conservatism — and would ultimately discredit Clegg’s party with its own voters. During Prime Minister Tony Blair’s time in office, Liberal Democrats were to the left of Blair’s Labor Party. The abrupt transformation of the Lib Dems’ identity into enablers of a center-right government was too much, too fast. And on Thursday, the party’s vote was cut by two-thirds, from 23 percent in 2010 to just under 8 percent. The Lib Dems went into the election with 57 seats and salvaged only eight of them. The Conservatives won more than two dozen of the lost Lib Dem seats, providing Cameron with his new majority. It was a two-step: Weakened by the loss of voters on their party’s left end, the Lib Dems were easy pickings for Cameron, and his party apparatus ruthlessly targeted his one-time allies. In a lesson for U.S. conservatives, Cameron went out of his way during the campaign to reassure economically hardpressed voters with promises that he reiterated in his victory speech Friday, including, “3 million apprenticeships” and “more help with child care.” Cameron was the candidate of a kinder, gentler austerity. By making enough concessions to Miliband’s argument that the working class was hurting, Cameron could focus the country’s attention on good economic news and the SNP threat. But now that he has a parliamentary majority, Cameron will be challenged inside his party to move away from his signature moderation. Harder-line conservatives will point to Thursday’s thunder from the right-wing United Kingdom Independence Party. That party won just one seat but became the country’s thirdlargest party in popular votes, quadrupling its share to nearly 13 percent. On immigration and Britain’s future with the European Union, Cameron will have limited maneuvering room. David Cameron has proven himself an electoral wizard. Now he’ll have to reveal a good deal more about what’s behind the curtain. E.J. Dionne writes about politics in a twice-weekly column and on the PostPartisan blog.

(AP) — Elizabeth Wilson, an actress who distinguished herself onstage, on television and in films like “The Graduate” and “9 to 5” in supporting roles that were often meaty but rarely glamorous, died on Saturday in New Haven. She was 94. Her death was confirmed by Elizabeth Morton, a close friend whom she considered a daughter. Ms. Wilson knew from an early age that she wanted to be an actress, but she was never very interested in being a star. “In the 1940s,” she told Connecticut magazine in 2012, “I was doing something called the Equity Library Theater in New York, when a movie company came to see the play I was in and offered me a contract. But the deal was, my nose was too big and they wanted me to have surgery. My jaw was crooked, and I’d have to have that fixed, too. And they didn’t like my name; it was too common. I was to change these things, and they’d sign me to a multiyear contract. By all accounts, she was always content as more recognizable by face than by name. That face — capable of projecting snobbery, sadness and a winning eccentricity — was seen often in a near 70-year career. THE TIMES A5 2 Brown students rescued after swim across bay In brief BARRINGTON. (AP) — Two Brown University students were rescued after unsuccessfully trying to swim across Narragansett Bay from Barrington to Warwick. Published reports say that 18-year-old Ashley Whaley and 20-year-old Katherine Murphy told police they were walking on a beach on the east side of the bay Sunday when they decided to swim to Conimicut Point lighthouse. Partway there, they realized the lighthouse was further away than they thought. Murphy turned back, while Whaley kept going. Murphy began calling for help when the current began sweeping her into the Providence River. People on shore heard and she was rescued by a kayaker amid dense fog. A few hours later, searchers found Whaley. Earlier, fire officials had said the women had been using kayaks, but the newspaper reported the women were swimming. Tsarnaev defense: Feds yet to shown impact of boy’s death BOSTON (AP) — Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's lawyers rested their case Monday in their bid to save him from execution after death penalty opponent Sister Helen Prejean testified that he expressed genuine sorrow for the victims. "No one deserves to suffer like they did," Prejean quoted him as saying. The prosecution wrapped up its case as well Monday. The sides will return Wednesday to give closing arguments, after which the federal jury will decide whether the 21-year-old Tsarnaev should be put to death or receive life in prison. Prejean, a Roman Catholic nun whose story was told in the 1995 movie "Dead Man Walking," starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn, met with Tsarnaev five times since March at the request of the defense. Prejean, who smiled at Tsarnaev several times during her testimony, said she could hear "pain" in his voice when he said he regretted what happened to the victims in the 2013 attack, which left three people dead and more than 260 wounded. "I had every reason to think that he was taking it in and that he was genuinely sorry for what he did," Prejean testified as the final witness for the defense in The defense team called the penalty phase of the more than 40 witnesses durtrial. ing the penalty phase in Prosecutors had fought hope of convincing the jury unsuccessfully to that Tsarnaev is a keep Prejean off "good kid" who fell the witness under the influence of stand. his radical older brothDuring crosser, 26-year-old examination by Tamerlan Tsarnaev, prosecutor who died in a getaway William attempt days after the Weinreb, Prejean bombing.

Providence firm accused of $11M Ponzi-like scheme PROVIDENCE (AP) — A fund manager and his firm have been accused by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of running a Ponzi-like scheme that cost investors more than $11 million. The SEC filed a complaint Thursday accusing Patrick Churchville and his Providence firm, ClearPath Wealth Management, of misappropriating client money over a period of years. It says Churchville and ClearPath stole money and covered up their actions by lying to investors and by employing various shadow accounts and accounting tricks. It also says that Churchville used some of the money for himself, including $2.5 million to buy a home overlooking Narragansett Bay in Barrington. Churchville did not return a call seeking comment at his firm on Monday. His lawyer, Michael Lepizzera, said he is still going through the complaint and they will respond accordingly at the appropriate time. "This case is going to turn out to be a lot more complicated than what's painted in the SEC complaint," Lepizzera said. He said Churchville's company made legitimate investments, many of which are pending and could become profitable. North Korean general Kim Kyok-sik, 77 SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Kim Kyok-sik, the North Korean general who South Korean officials have said was behind two deadly attacks on South Korea in 2010, died on Sunday. He was 77. The cause was acute respiratory failure, The Rodong Sinmun, the newspaper of the North’s ruling Workers’ Party, reported on Monday. General Kim was the commander of a North Korean Army corps whose units were accused by South Korea in the sinking of a South Korean Navy ship, the Cheonan, in which 46 sailors were killed in March 2010. General Kim’s front-line units were also accused of shelling a South Korean border island, Yeonpyeong, that year, killing two marines and two civilians. South Korean officials singled out General Kim as one of the top North Korean military officers who plotted the attacks. North Korea denied involvement in the sinking of the South Korean ship, which South Korean and United States officials said was hit by a North Korean torpedo. General Kim held crucial military posts, including the head of the Ministry of People’s Armed Forces and the chief of the General Staff of the North Korean People’s Army, under the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and his father, Kim Jong-il, who died in 2011. Although Kim Kyok-sik retained his four-star rank, he recently retired from central military posts as Kim Jong-un elevated younger generals in the military hierarchy.

Nursing home with financial woes receives $1.1 million bid PROVIDENCE (AP) — A potential buyer has offered to pay $1.1 million for a financially troubled South Providence nursing home. Richard Land told a Superior Court judge Monday that a New Yorkbased health care center offered to buy the centuryold Bannister House. Land said Superior Court Judge Michael Silverstein appointed him to act as receiver for the home, which has debts of more than $2 million. He was appointed shortly after the facility's board voted to close the home due to its financial woes. The nursing home's future will remain unsettled for at least 30 days as Land waits for other offers. Officials searching RI coast for beluga whales JAMESTOWN (AP) — A Connecticut aquarium is working with other authorities to check on the health of three beluga whales spotted off the coast of Rhode Island. Officials from Mystic Aquarium and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration fisheries are working with local authorities to find the whales. The team is searching Narragansett Bay to determine if they need to help the whales. The aquarium's lead veterinarian Dr. Allison Tuttle said in a statement only video footage posted on Facebook is available for now, but the whales seem to be behaving normally. Congress Ok’s renaming post office for RI nun PROVIDENCE (AP) — Rhode Island Sen. Jack Reed says legislation to name a post office in Providence for the late community activist Sister Ann Keefe has passed in Congress. The legislation to honor the Roman Catholic nun known for her charitable work was sponsored by the state's congressional delegation. The Senate on Monday passed the legislation sponsored by Reed and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse. U.S. Reps. David Cicilline and Jim Langevin sponsored it in the House, where it passed it last month. The post office at 820 Elmwood Ave. in Providence will be renamed for Keefe, who died in January at the age of 62. Frank DiPascali Jr., Madoff aide, dies at 58 NEW YORK (AP) — Frank DiPascali Jr., a top lieutenant to Bernard L. Madoff, who helped carry out one of the biggest frauds in Wall Street history, died on Thursday. He was 58. The cause was lung cancer, said his lawyer, Marc L. Mukasey, who declined to say where Mr. DiPascali had died. Mr. DiPascali had been out on bail, awaiting a sentencing hearing in September. After pleading guilty in 2009 to 10 felony counts, including conspiracy and tax evasion, Mr. DiPascali faced a prison term of up to 125 years, a sentence he hoped to have significantly reduced because of his extensive cooperation with federal prosecutors. In a letter to the court in 2010, prosecutors said Mr. DiPascali had “already provided substantial assistance to the government in its investigation.” Mr. DiPascali, Mr. Mukasey said in a brief statement on Sunday, had been “grateful to have been able to make some amends by helping the government these past few years.” In his court testimony in August 2009, when he pleaded guilty, Mr. DiPascali described himself as a “kid from Queens” who landed a job with a rising young financial whiz, Mr. Madoff. That opportunity came by way of a neighbor. He grew up next door to Mr. Madoff’s personal secretary, Annette Bongiorno. She provided the introduction, and Mr. DiPascali joined Mr. Madoff’s firm in 1975, after he graduated from Archbishop Molloy High School in Queens. Mr. DiPascali rose steadily in the firm to eventually become its chief financial officer. Along the way, he became close to Mr. Madoff, whom Mr. DiPascali described as “a mentor to me and a lot more.” His allegiance to his mentor, he suggested, led him astray. “I was loyal to him,” Mr. DiPascali said. “I ended up being loyal to a terrible, terrible fault.” In his court testimony, he said that for at least 20 years he had helped Mr. Madoff carry out a vast financial fraud that prosecutors estimated at $65 billion, including the fictitious profits claimed over the years. The Ponzi scheme, Mr. DiPascali testified, involved using historical stock data from the Internet to create fake trade records and sending bogus account statements, among other tactics. “I knew it was criminal, and I did it anyway,” Mr. DiPascali told the court. That day, he also expressed his remorse. “I apologize to every victim of this catastrophe and to my family and to the government,” Mr. DiPascali said. “I am very, very sorry.” Funeral Home Directory Charles Coelho Funeral Home 151 Cross Street, Central Falls, RI 02863 401-724-9440 Cook-Hathaway Funeral Home 160 Park St., Attleboro, MA 02703 508-222-7700 Foley-Hathaway Funeral Home 126 South Main St., Attleboro, MA 02703 508-222-0498 Duffy-Poule Funeral Home 20 Peck Street, Attleboro, MA 02703 508-222-0193 Diamond Funeral Home 180 N.

I have been single for three years, since my ex chose an affair over our marriage. I am successful and manage my home and finances. I am, however, struggling with pressure from my ex to get back together. He had several affairs during the 13 years we were married. The pain and self-loathing were unbearable for me. He hasn't changed. Yet he tells our 14year-old son, "Jackson," that he still loves me and "wants only to be with me." He also told Jackson that he doesn't know why I have chosen to keep our family broken up. I moved hundreds of miles to get away from this stress. I have a great job and a lovely home. My son stays mad at me, though. He has chosen to live with his dad, and when he visits he demands explanations for why I am not with them. It breaks my heart. I genuinely do not know what to tell him. His father has already told him about the affairs, but says I should forgive him. Ironically, I DO forgive him. I want my ex to have a beautiful life — without me. What can a mother say to her son to help him understand that some things just won't mend? — MOVED ON IN ALABAMA father's example and turn out just like dear old dad. DEAR ABBY: DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips DEAR MOVED ON: You would be doing your son a favor to tell him the truth. As it stands, he thinks that a husband having affairs is nothing serious because that's what his father has told him. Now it's time to tell Jackson that his father didn't do this just once, he did it repeatedly. Explain that you tried forgiving him, and it only caused you more heartache. Tell your son you love him and you're sorry he's angry at you, but it's clear that his father isn't going to change. And that you would rather remain single than let him touch your body — or your heart — again. If you do, it may teach Jackson that not all women will accept this kind of treatment and endlessly forgive. If you don't, he may follow his Horoscope A ^ WGBH 2 B 2 C 2 $ WBZ 4 4 % WCVB 5 5 & WLNE 6 _ WHDH 7 * WJAR 10 10 10 , WPRI 12 9 WFXT < WLWC 7 6 13 9 D WSBE 8 15 9 F WSBK 8 14 L WGBX 21 21 16 X WLVI 9 12 ∞ WNAC 11 ¥ WBPX μ WPXQ 20 15 7 D 6 PM 6:30 PBS NewsHour (N) Å 6 PM A&E 37 64 37 37 A-P 42 56 63 63 AMC 25 71 59 59 BET 79 BRAV 70 63 57 57 CNBC 48 44 46 46 CNN 49 41 42 42 COM 58 67 61 61 CSNE 55 36 52 52 DISC 24 59 39 39 67 DISN 34 53 24 24 E! 63 72 34 34 ESPN 30 34 49 49 ESPN2 29 35 50 50 ESPNC 132 309 258 258 EWTN 22 96 56 56 FAM 38 50 26 26 FOOD 28 62 53 53 FX 53 30 30 30 HGTV 44 61 32 32 HIST 41 69 58 58 LIFE 40 28 36 36 MTV 60 76 28 28 NESN 56 37 51 51 NICK 35 52 25 25 SYFY 69 73 62 62 SPIKE 26 74 55 55 TLC 39 55 38 38 TNT 27 32 33 33 TOON 36 51 60 60 TVL 43 48 64 64 USA 52 31 35 35 WTBS 45 33 31 31 PREMIUM ENC 292 630 326 326 HBO 200 400 301 301 MAX 220 450 341 341 SHOW 240 500 361 361 STARZ 280 600 321 321 TMC 260 550 381 381 Sudoku solution 7 PM TUESDAY EVENING MAY 12, 2015 7:30 Greater BosRick Steves’ 2 ton Å Europe Å WBZ News CBS Evening Wheel of For- Jeopardy! 4 (N) Å News/Pelley tune (N) (N) Å NewsCenter 5 ABC World Inside Edition Chronicle Å 5 at 6:00 (N) News (N) Å ABC6 News at ABC World The Insider Inside Edition 6pm (N) News (N) Å (N) Å 7 News at 6PM NBC Nightly Access HolExtra (N) Å 7 (N) News (N) lywood (N) NBC 10 News at NBC Nightly NBC 10 News at Extra (N) Å 6pm (N) News (N) 7pm (N) 12 News at 6 CBS Evening Wheel of For- Jeopardy!

DEAR HOUSE-SITTER: Because the dogs have been left in your keeping, the responsibility for assuring their safety and well-being in your parents' absence belongs to you. Ask your parents if they would mind a pet-sitter staying in the house when you vacation with your son, or if they would prefer the dogs be placed in a kennel. A - Cox B - Uxbridge, Millville Comcast C - Blackstone, Franklin Comcast D - Bellingham Comcast By HOLIDAY MATHIS TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The trick you pull off today is on par with pulling a rabbit out of a hat. This trick may be more impressive than useful, but it's still a sheer delight to your rapt audience. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are curious and open-minded, and yet not easily won. Furthermore, today it will take an especially compelling argument to separate you from your money. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You have the potential to brighten someone's day or ruin it, and of course you'll choose the first option. Tonight, your kindness will not be directly repaid, but doing the right thing is its own reward. LEO (July 23-Aug.22). It's an ideal time to cut the nonsense from your schedule, budget and life. Shrewd choices will help you concentrate, instead of dissipate, your powers. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Those short, friendly conversations scattered throughout your day are more important than you think. They keep your team strong and help others more than you know. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The 80/20 rule applies, but it may be difficult to figure out which 20 percent of your efforts are netting you 80 percent of your desired results. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Broken and dysfunctional people are everywhere. So what? There's no reason to talk about it. Offer up compassion; steer clear of gossip; go to bed with a clear conscience. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Avoid the game that's too easy for you. Your nerves will tell you whether you're playing at the right level. Channel your nervous energy to give you an edge. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You have nothing to hide, but there are benefits to pretending that you do. Mystery looks good on you! The intrigue you spin today will stick with people. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even though you like to deliver beyond expectation, if you show up and do what's expected of you, that will be more than enough for now. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Judging yourself too harshly is not necessary when you're in the thick of things. Creation is one process. Analysis is another process. Separate the two, and your work will be brilliant. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're the underdog in today's conflict. You'll keep going when the odds are against you. Don't forget that everyone loves the underdog -especially if they know the whole story. Tell it! I live in my parents' home. They are long-haul truck drivers and come home every eight weeks or so for a few days. I'm disabled and have a caregiver who comes four days a week. When my parents stop in and the caregiver is here, they expect her to do for them. They keep four dogs on the truck they take with them and leave four dogs at home with me — so that's eight dogs when they are here. I am extremely grateful for this home and I love them very much, but right now I feel like a house/dog-sitter. My son has invited me to go on vacation with his family. Is it my responsibility to make arrangements for the dogs they have left here?

Leapfrog also cited hospitals that received an ‘A’ grade for safety for the past six grading periods, and labeled them with the new ‘Straight ‘A’s’ logo; Sturdy was among the 182 unique hospitals nationwide to receive this declaration. “It’s an honor to be recognized by The Leapfrog Group,” says Dr. Bruce Auerbach, President & CEO of Sturdy. “Leapfrog holds hospitals to the highest of standards, and to have reached the top of its Hospital Safety Score rankings every year since 2012 is a real accomplishment for the entire organization – including physicians, nurses, other clinicians, ancillary and support staff, and the entire leadership team. Ensuring safe, optimum-quality care for the people we serve is a clear priority.” Developed under the guidance of Leapfrog’s Blue Ribbon Expert Panel, the Hospital Safety Score uses 28 measures of publicly available hospital safety data to produce a single ‘A,’ ‘B,’ ‘C,’ ‘D,’ or ‘F’ score representing a hospital’s overall capacity to keep patients safe from preventable harm. More than 2,500 U.S. general hospitals were assigned scores in spring 2015, about 31 percent received an ‘A’ grade, and only about 7 percent were honored with the ‘Straight ‘A’s’ logo. The Hospital Safety Score is fully transparent, with a full analysis of the data and methodology used in determining grades available online. Visit www.hospitalsafetyscore.org for more information.

Slater honored for home health care advocacy PROVIDENCE – On Thursday, May 7, the Rhode Island Partnership for Home Care honored Rep. Scott A. Slater (D-Dist. 10, Providence) under the State House rotunda. Slater was honored due to his tireless efforts in advocating for the hard working home health care professionals of the state. "It is fundamentally unfair that our healthcare workers in the home care field are denied the same wages and benefits that their peers at hospitals and nursing homes bring home every year," said Rep. Slater. "These dedicated professionals visit every corner of our state to provide top-notch quality healthcare to all those who are in need. They deserve to be recognized and fairly compensated for their never-ending efforts to ensure the best possible quality of life for all of their patients," added Slater. "Representative Slater believes that CNA's should not be earning close to minimum wage for healthcare services in which they deliver in the homes of our eldest, poorest and sickest Rhode Islanders. “He believes they deserve a competitive wage and access to the same quality healthcare that they provide in the community. For these reasons, we would like to recognize Representative Slater as an advocate for the home healthcare community," said Nicholas Oliver, Executive Submitted photo Rep. Scott A. Slater (front row, second from left) was honored for his tireless efforts in advocating for the state’s home health care professionals. Director of the Rhode Island Partnership for Home Care.

SPORTS Blackstone Valley THE TIMES, Tuesday, May 12, 2015 — B1 NFL Goodell plays hardball with Pats Brady suspended 4 games, Patriots fined $1M for underinflated footballs BARRY WILNER and JIMMY GOLEN AP Sports Writers NEW YORK — The NFL came down hard on its biggest star and its championship team. The league suspended the Super Bowl MVP Monday for the first four games of the season, fined the New England Patriots $1 million and took away two draft picks as punishment for using underinflated footballs in the AFC title game. “Each player, no matter how accomplished and otherwise respected, has an obligation to comply with the rules and must be held accountable for his actions when those rules are Tom Brady violated and the public’s confidence in the game is called into question,” NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent wrote to Brady. The Patriots lose next year’s first-round pick and a fourth-round choice in 2017. Brady would miss the season’s showcase kickoff game on Sept. 10 against Pittsburgh, then Week 2 at Buffalo, a home game against Jacksonville and a game at Dallas. He will return the week of a Patriots-Colts AFC championship rematch in Indianapolis. Brady, who will be suspended without pay for the first four games of the 2015-16 season, is receiving a suspension twice as long as the two-game suspension of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice, who beat his thenfiancée. He would be replaced by Jimmy Garoppolo, a 2014 secondround selection from Eastern Illinois who won the Walter Payton award as the best player in the FCS. He has thrown 27 NFL passes, including one touchdown. Brady has three days to appeal the suspension to Commissioner Roger Goodell or his designee. His agent, Don Yee, said “the discipline is ridiculous and has no legitimate basis” and that Brady will appeal. “And if the hearing officer is completely independent and neutral, I am very confident the Wells Report will be exposed as an incredibly frail exercise in factfinding and logic,” Yee said in a statement. The Patriots did not immediately comment on the punishments. See PATS, page B3 Boys’ Track PawSox Clippers rule the North Sox biding time with Castillo, Craig Talbert’s 3 wins pace Cumberland in team victory OFers in search of steady playing time By BRENDAN McGAIR [email protected] FOSTER – Led by three first-place finishes by senior Jared Talbert, Cumberland easily rolled to the Northern Division title on Monday afternoon at Ponaganset High School. The Clippers finished with 222 points on the strength of 11 first-place finishes. Talbert captured individual gold in the high jump (even six feet) and the 1110 hurdles (15.1).

What about Rusney Castillo’s status, you ask? “Just trying to get him settling in,” said PawSox manager Kevin Boles on Monday, which was a scheduled day off for Castillo after four straight days of game action. “This is kind of his spring training right now, to be honest with you.” Castillo is hitting .194 (6-for31) in eight games since comRusney Castillo ing off the disabled list on April 29. He’s also driven in one run and produced just one extra base hit over Allen Craig that span. Judging by those numbers, the Cuban import is a ways away before becoming a serious candidate for a big-league promotion. “We’re making sure we’re doing right by him so we don’t overload him too much too soon,” said Boles. Castillo sustained a rightshoulder injury during the season-opening series in Lehigh Valley when he dove for a ball in right field. It was his second setback since the start of spring training – an oblique injury resulted in just 29 atbats in Grapefruit League play. “I’m feeling better now that I’m playing every day,” said Castillo with assistance in the See PAWSOX, page B3 Softball Goodhart, Cooper lead Davies past Novans, 5-3 By JON BAKER [email protected] LINCOLN – Davies Tech took advantage of a fine pitching performance by senior righty Maddie Goodhart and classmate Maddie Cooper’s 2-for-3, two-RBI, one-run outing to snag a 5-3 victory over Woonsocket. Goodhart whirled a completegame seven-hitter (without a walk) and whiffed a quartet, but also helped herself, going 2-for-2 with three runs. Other key offensive contributors included freshman Taylor Menard (1-for-3, RBI); junior Laura Sylvestre (1-for-2, double, run); sophomore Samantha Lisi (0-for-3, RBI); and senior Kaitlyn Campanelli (1-for-1). With the triumph, the Pats solidified their hold on first place in IINorth, improving to 8-3. Had the Villa Novans collected the win, they would have gained a half-game lead; instead, they dropped to 6-4. Senior righthander Amanda Nunez took the loss, yielding eight hits and a walk with three strikeouts in another full seven frames. If there was any good news for Woonsocket on this day, it was delivered by junior Brittany Girard, who went 3-for3 with a double, triple, RBI and a run. (She was a mere home run shy of hitting for the cycle). The last time Davies Tech faced Division II-North foe Woonsocket – back on Wednesday, April 29 – the Patriots made five errors in the sixth inning and ultimately suffered a bitter 5-4 defeat. Davies’ head coach Scott Cooper addressed his team the following afternoon, and wasn’t shy about his displeasure. After all, that’s not the way the sometimes hard-core Cooper operates. He admitted he said little to his crew before prior to battling the Villa Novans a second time on Monday afternoon, and the plan worked in his – and the Patriots – favor. “It was a battle for first, and we wanted it,” the elder Cooper said later. “They beat us by one at their last place last week, and we gave it away with the five errors that gave them five runs. We had been up, 40.

SPORTS Tuesday, May 12, 2015 Davies Continued from page B1 “I talked to the girls the next day, but I played it cool (Monday),” he continued. “I wanted to keep them calm and relaxed … The last time we played, we were missing our starting shortstop (Sylvestre) and our first baseman (senior Tori Lopes). Because of that, it screwed up our lineup. Missing both didn’t help matters. “Having them back here was huge because we were able to set the tone right away (with the bat), but it was big defensively, too.” Stated rather dejected WHS skipper Dan Belisle: “I didn’t think we were up for the game, and we got outplayed; it’s as simple as that. I didn’t feel we were as motivated as we should’ve been. I have to say Pats Continued from page B1 The league also indefinitely suspended the two equipment staffers alleged to have carried out the plan, including one who called himself “The Deflator.” Vincent wrote letters to the team and Brady saying a league-sponsored investigative report established “substantial and credible evidence” that the quarterback knew the employees were deflating footballs and failed to cooperate with investigators. The investigation by attorney Ted Wells found that Brady “was at least generally aware” of plans by two Patriots employees to prepare the balls to his liking, below the league-mandated minimum of 12.5 pounds per square inch. The Patriots defeated the Indianapolis Colts 45-7 and went on to beat the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl. The fine matches the largest the NFL has handed out, to Ed DeBartolo Jr., then the San Francisco 49ers’ owner, who pleaded guilty to a felony in his role in a Louisiana gambling scandal in 1999. Vincent told the Patriots the punishment was handed out regardless of whether the flatter footballs — which can be easier to grip and catch — affected the outcome of the blowout win over the Colts. Vincent said the flattening of balls probably began much earlier. “While we cannot be certain when the activity began, the evidence suggests that January 18th was not the first and only occasion when this occurred, particularly in light of the evidence referring to PawSox Continued from page B1 translating department from PawSox catcher Humberto Quintero. “My swing, my body … everything feels good.” Castillo came across as an electric and explosive player with a lot of skills during his short time with the Red Sox last season. Obviously, the hope is that those elements resurface the more the outfielder distances himself him from past maladies. “He’s not at 100 percent as far as game speed yet. I think the effort level has ticked up at times, but physically he’s feeling great,” said Boles. “We’re looking to build up his game stamina over time. He’s going to be on his feet so he’s got to get used to playing.” With Bradley now in Boston, the door has opened for Castillo to receive reps in center field. According to Boles, Castillo will share the duties with Quintin Berry and Sean Coyle, who made his first-ever start in center field on Monday night. “Castillo is definitely going to get some touches in center,” said Boles. Added Castillo, “I’m ready to play center field, but wherever the manager wants me, whether it’s left, center or right, I’ll be ready.” Allen Craig was in the original lineup that the PawSox tweeted out shortly after 2 p.m. Optioned to the minors over the weekend, Davies played well, and they were better than we were (Monday).” The Novans nevertheless jumped out to a 1-0 lead at the get-go, with senior Tayla Sevigny hammering an opposite-field double to the rightcenter gap, and Girard whacking a three-bagger to virtually the same spot to plate her. On the play, however, Sylvestre took the relay throw and fired to catcher Cooper, who applied the tag to Girard as she attempted to score. In the end, that turned out to be a monumental defensive play for Davies. The Pats immediately countered to knot it at 1-1 in the back half of the first. Nunez walked Goodhart, who took second on a wild pitch. Sylvestre’s sacrifice bunt pushed her to third before scoring on another wild delivery. The score remained the same deflation of footballs going back to before the beginning of the 2014 season,” he wrote. “It is impossible to determine whether this activity had an effect on the outcome of games or what that effect was.” In his 243-page report released by the league last week, Wells found that the team broke the rules again, this time by deflating the game footballs after they had been checked by officials. Although the report did not conclusively link the four-time Super Bowl champion to the illegal activity, text messages between the equipment staffers indicated that Brady knew it was going on. Investigators said Brady’s explanation for the messages was implausible. “It is unlikely that an equipment assistant and a locker room attendant would deflate game balls without Brady’s knowledge and approval,” the report said. The NFL allows each team to provide the footballs used by its offense — a procedure Brady played a role in creating — but it requires them to be inflated in that range of 12.5-13.5 pounds per square inch. Footballs with less pressure can be easier to grip and catch, and Brady has expressed a preference for the lower end of the range. Brady said last week that the scandal hasn’t taken away from the team’s 28-24 Super Bowl win over Seattle — its fourth NFL title since the 2001 season. “Absolutely not,” he said at a previously planned appearance in Salem, Massachusetts, last Thursday night. “We earned everything we got and achieved as a team, and I am proud of that and so are our fans.” Craig was scheduled to hit third and play right field. After batting practice, Boles removed the lineup card and brought it into his office. A new lineup was reissued, one where Craig’s name was nowhere to be found. Major League Baseball contracts allow a player 72 hours to report to their minor-league destination, meaning Craig has until Tuesday to report the PawSox. Once he does join the Triple-A ranks – Craig appeared in two rehab games for Pawtucket last season – he is expected to rotate between first base, left field and right field and THE TIMES B3 until the top of the third, when Woonsocket mustered a pair. With one down, Girard rapped an opposite-field hit to right, then scored when senior Taylor Pawlina scorched a triple to center. It also didn’t take long for Nunez’ sacrifice fly to senior centerfielder Waleska Kelly to plate her. (Kelly, by the way, played superbly at that spot). Davies countered that punch with a three-run uppercut to grab the 4-3 advantage in the bottom of the third. Goodhart ripped a one-out hit to right, and Sylvestre doubled her to third before Cooper belted a curving, two-run triple to deep left. Lisi reached on an infield dropped pop by Nunez, and freshman Taylor Moreau’s safety-squeeze bunt single. The Patriots, though, squandered a chance to plate more when Kelly’s bunt try was accurately fielded and thrown by Girard. In the top of the fourth, Woonsocket senior Dacia MacNeil reached on a one-out error, but could do nothing; the same went for the fifth, when Girard’s double with one down proved fruitless. Tech later fashioned an insurance run in the fifth, that after Goodhart slammed a ground single up to center, took second on Sylvestre’s sacrifice bunt, moved to third on Cooper’s lashed hit down the leftfield line and scored on Lisi’s groundout. After Girard’s two-bagger in the fifth, Goodhart retired seven of the next eight batters, allowing frosh Danielle Fernandes a one-out single in the seventh. “I’d give us a B-minus (grade) for the whole thing,” Coach Cooper said. “We had a couple of mishaps with our baserunners, and a pair of blunders in the first led to their run, but I thought Woonsocket played great. That’s a good-hitting team Dan has, but – in the end—I thought we settled down and collected our thoughts. “For us to get the third out in the seventh was crucial,” he added of Goodhart’s ability to force Sevigny to ground to second with Fernandes at first to end it. “If we hadn’t been able to get that out, Woonsocket would’ve had Girard, Pawlina and Nunez coming up. “Those three have been smoking the ball, so I’m very pleased with the outcome.” Woonsocket 102 000 0 -- 3 – 7 – 3 Davies Tech 103 010 x -- 5 – 8 – 2 Amanda Nunez and Brittany Girard.

Hold off, Coates said Monday, pointing fingers because “honestly, stuff happened all the time” and the Patriots are looked at more harshly because of their success. Coates was a 1991 draft pick of the New England out of Division II Livingstone College and blossomed into their best tight end of the decade with 490 receptions and 50 touchdowns in his nine seasons. He was named to five straight Pro Bowls and was voted to New England’s all-1990s team. Coates rolls his eyes about team’s latest controversy about under-inflated footballs in last January’s AFC championship game. The 6-foot-5 Coates said friends of his are all too happy to think New England is breaking rules because of their success of four Super Bowls in the past 15 years — and the issues the team has had “The Patriots are now getting scrutinized so much, you’re like, ‘Okay (NFL), if you’re going to do something to them, go ahead and do it,” Coates said. “You’re talking about the ‘Spy-gate’ before, now you’re talking about the inflated balls, who knew, who didn’t know.” Coates spoke before the NFL levied punishment against the Patriots on Monday, including hitting the organization with a $1 million fine and suspending quarterback Tom Brady for the first four games of the next season. The former New England tight end left the Patriots after the 2000 season, catching playing one more memorable NFL season in 2000 when he helped the Baltimore Ravens win a Super Bowl. Coates has no direct knowledge of whether Brady had other staffers alter specified football air pressure before New England’s AFC title game win over Indianapolis this past season. Brady and New England followed that two weeks later with their fourth Super Bowl win under coach Bill Belichick. But Coates doesn’t believe “Deflategate” tarnishes the team’s achievements and brand them as rule-breakers. “I don’t worry about the reputation,” he said. Running back Terry Allen, like Coates a South Carolina Athletic Hall inductee, played with Coates on New England in 1999. Allen smiled when asked about the deflated-football issue. “Considering I didn’t ever play with a quarterback that didn’t have a clue what was going on with the footballs, I’ll leave it at that,” said Allen, a Clemson runner who scored 79 touchdowns in 11 seasons with five NFL clubs. Allen, following the issue while finishing his degree at Clemson, said before the NFL announced its penalties that New England would receive similarly harsh penalties from the league as New Orleans did in 2012 for its wrongful bounty program. Saints coach Sean Payton was suspended for that season as was linebacker Jonathan Vilma. Several other coaches and players were suspended and the team lost second round draft picks in 2012 and 2013. “I’d be surprised if (New England) didn’t get better or equal to what happened with New Orleans,” Allen said. Along with Coates and Allen, the other inductees were South Carolina pitcher Kip Bouknight, the Golden Spikes Award winner in 2000 as the nation’s top baseball amateur; Joe Cabri, a former Lander tennis coach who won 12 national titles in 31 seasons; former Clemson and U.S. soccer standout Bruce Murray; Furman national championship winning football coach Jimmy Satterfield; and the late Les Timms, a longtime sports writer and editor at South Carolina newspapers. Coates, 45, was born and raised in Greenwood, South Carolina. He’s proud that his Patriots of the 1990s began the run that’s resulted in stellar success. And he knows, like “Spygate” before, the furor of “Deflategate,” will subside, too. He believes the Patriots would deal with the penalties, “and hopefully, move on.” BOXING The Associated Press May 15 At US Airway Centre, Phoenix (truTV), Jose Benavidez vs. Jorge Paez Jr., 12, for Benavidez’s interim WBA super lightweight title; Antonio Orozco vs. Emanuel Taylor, 10, super lightweights.

Two days after hitting a buzzerbeater to win Game 3, Washington's Paul Pierce missed a 3-point attempt that would have tied the score with less than 10 seconds left. Al Horford had 18 points and 10 rebounds and Paul Millsap added 19 points, six assists and five rebounds, as three of Atlanta's four All-Stars played significant roles. Washington's lone All-Star, point guard John Wall, missed a third consecutive game with a broken left hand. Game 5 is Wednesday night at Atlanta. Right from the start, the Hawks were back to being the free-flowing, ball-moving regular-season version of themselves, the squad that won 60 games, rather than the disjointed, disorganized bunch that had been 5-4 this postseason. The Hawks led most of the game, but Washington cut the deficit to 10197 with under 2 minutes remaining. Teague's 3-pointer with 72 seconds left got the margin back to seven. Still, after Washington's Bradley Beal blocked a shot by Dennis Schroder in the lane to keep Atlanta's lead at 104-101, the Wizards had the ball and called a timeout with 9.5 seconds remaining. They got Pierce an open look at a 3, but it went off the rim. The Wizards, seeded fifth in the Eastern Conference, entered Monday with the best record in these playoffs at 6-1, including 3-0 at home. And they got terrific performances from Beal, with a career playoff-high 34 points, seven assists and six rebounds, and Pierce, with 22 points, including five of Washington's 12 makes from beyond the arc. It was Pierce who banked in a 21foot fadeaway jumper for the winner on Saturday. Washington had blown all of a 21-point, fourth-quarter lead as the Hawks used a small-ball lineup of reserves to pull even with less than 15 seconds left. On Monday, reserve guard Schroder produced 14 points, but otherwise it was Atlanta's starters who led the way with the team's best brand of unselfish basketball. Early on, the Hawks built a 16-0 edge in points in the paint, repeatedly finding the open man. And during a stretch that helped grow the lead to as many as 14 in the second quarter, Atlanta scored on seven consecutive possessions — with six players contributing points.
