High court won't delay release of Calif. inmates

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) ? The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday paved the way for the early release of nearly 10,000 California inmates by year's end despite warnings by Gov. Jerry Brown and other state officials that a public safety crisis looms if they're forced to open the prison gates.

A majority of justices refused an emergency request by the governor to halt a lower court's directive for the early release of the prisoners to ease severe overcrowding at California's 33 adult prisons.

The decision was met with concern by law enforcement officials in the state.

Covina Police Chief Kim Raney, president of the California Police Chiefs Association, said the justices ignored efforts already underway to reduce prison populations and "chose instead to allow for the release of more felons into already overburdened communities."

Brown's office referred a request for comment to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, where Secretary Jeff Beard vowed that the state would press on with a still-pending appeal in hope of preventing the releases.

A panel of three federal judges had previously ordered the state to cut its prison population by nearly 8 percent to roughly 110,000 inmates by Dec. 31 to avoid conditions amounting to cruel and unusual punishment. That panel, responding to decades of lawsuits filed by inmates, repeatedly ordered early releases after finding inmates were needlessly dying and suffering because of inadequate medical and mental health care caused by overcrowding.

Court-appointed experts found that the prison system had a suicide rate that worsened last year to 24 per 100,000 inmates, far exceeding the national average of 16 suicides per 100,000 inmates in state prisons.

Brown had appealed the latest decision of the panel and, separately, asked the U.S. Supreme Court to cancel the early release order while considering his arguments that the state is making significant progress in improving conditions. The high court refused Friday to stop the release but did not rule on the appeal itself. Corrections Secretary Beard said the state would press on with that, so the "merits of the case can be considered without delay."

However, inmate lawyer Don Specter, head of the Berkeley-based Prison Law Office, said the ruling Friday did not bode well for the overall appeal. He said the decision underscores what inmates have been arguing for years.

"The conditions are still overcrowded," he said. "The medical and health care remain abysmal."

Lawyers representing Brown had argued to the high court that releasing 10,000 more inmates would mean letting violent criminals out on the streets and overwhelm the abilities of law enforcement and social services to monitor them.

"No data suggests that a sudden release of inmates with these characteristics can be done safely," the state said in its filing. "No state has ever done it."

The panel of federal judges has consistently rejected that argument. The judges, prisoners' lawyers and others say other states have marginally reduced inmate sentences without sparking an increase in crime.

The governor said the state has already transferred thousands of low-level and nonviolent offenders to county jails, but that local officials in turn have been forced into releasing some inmates early to ease their own overcrowding issues.

The Supreme Court's ruling rejected Brown's plea over the objections of Justices Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, who all said they would have granted the state's request.

Scalia, in a dissent joined by Thomas, wrote that the previous order by the three-judge panel was a "terrible injunction" that threatens public safety. Scalia said the state's evidence shows it has made meaningful progress and that such reductions in the inmate population are no longer necessary.

The legal battle goes back years. In 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that California had to cut its inmate population to deal with unconstitutional prison conditions caused by overcrowding. It said that further delay in reducing prison overcrowding would further the substandard delivery of medical and mental health care and, by extension, lead to more inmate deaths and injuries.

In recent years, the special panel of federal judges accused Brown of attempting to delay and circumvent their orders. They previously threatened to cite the governor for contempt if he did not comply.

The judges waived all state laws in June as they ordered Brown to expand good-time credits leading to early release. They also directed the governor to take other steps, including sending more inmates to firefighting camps, paroling elderly felons, leasing cells at county jails and slowing the return of thousands of inmates now housed in private prisons in other states.

If those steps fail, the judges ordered the state to release by year's end enough inmates from a list of lower-risk offenders until it reaches the maximum allowed population.

In its latest filing with the Supreme Court, the state argued that no governor has the unilateral authority to take the steps ordered by the three-judge panel. That would require approval by the Legislature or judicial pre-emption of California's core police powers, the administration argued.

Brown has said the state is spending $2 billion on new or expanded facilities for inmate medical and mental health treatment. That includes seven new centers for mental health treatment and the opening last June of an $839 million prison hospital in Stockton that will treat 1,722 inmates requiring long-term care. The state also has boosted hiring and salaries for all types of medical and mental health professionals.

The state has already reduced the population by 46,000 inmates since 2006.

More than half of the decrease that has occurred so far is due to a two-year-old state law ? known as realignment ? that is sentencing offenders convicted of crimes considered nonviolent, non-serious and non-sexual to county jails instead of state prisons.

Bangladesh court rules top Islamic party illegal

By Ruma Paul

DHAKA (Reuters) - A Bangladesh court on Thursday declared as illegal the country's main Islamic party, Jamaat-e-Islami, effectively banning it from a general election due early next year.

The ruling that the registration of Jamaat as a political party conflicted with the country's secular constitution immediately triggered violent protests by party supporters.

Party activists took to the streets in the capital, Dhaka, and other towns including Bogra, Jessore and Gaibandha.

Hundreds of protesters blocked a major road and smashed vehicles in the Pabna district, northwest of Dhaka, police said.

Jamaat immediately appealed to the Supreme Court against the High Court verdict, senior defense lawyer Abdur Razzak told reporters. The party will be barred from contesting elections if the Supreme Court upholds the verdict.

The party also called for a protest strike across the country on August 12-13.

The party has been embroiled in the proceedings at a tribunal set up to investigate abuses during Bangladesh's 1971 war of independence from Pakistan.

Six party leaders have been convicted of various crimes in connection with the war. Four of them were sentenced to death and two to life in prison.

Jamaat opposed Bangladeshi independence from Pakistan in the war but denies accusations that some of its leaders committed murder, rape and torture during the conflict.

More than 100 people have been killed in protests and counter-protests since January, when the tribunal set up by the government delivered its first verdict.

Islamic scholar Syed Rezaul Hoque Chandpuri, who backed the legal action that resulted in Thursday's ruling, said Jamaat did not have the right to engage in politics.

"Jamaat did not believe in the independence and sovereignty of Bangladesh and the party committed serious crimes during the country's war of independence," he told reporters as he branded Jamaat an enemy of Islam.

W.H. touts July jobs growth, GOP says it's not enough

With the release of July's employment numbers comes the predictable monthly spin from the White House and congressional Republicans.

The unemployment rate declined from 7.6 to 7.4 percent with 162,000 non-farm jobs added in July. However, job growth was slower in July than in June, when 188,000 jobs were added; through the first six months of the year, monthly job gains averaged 195,000.

Alan Kreuger, the chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers acknowledges, as he did last month, that "more work remains to be done" but argues that Friday's report "provides further confirmation that the U.S. economy is continuing to recover from the worst downturn since the Great Depression."

"With the recovery entering its fifth year, we need to build on the progress we have made so far and now is not the time for Washington to impose self-inflicted wounds," Kreuger continued. "The across-the-board budget cuts known as the sequester continue to be a drag on the economy now and in the future.

"The Administration continues to urge Congress to replace the sequester with balanced deficit reduction, and promote the investments our economy needs to put more Americans back to work, such as by rebuilding our roads and bridges."

In response, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, was down on the latest job numbers, saying, "Three years after the Obama administration proclaimed 'welcome to the recovery,' we're still seeing the same thing month after month: not enough new jobs and an unemployment rate far higher than promised."

"Nearly five years of aggressive intervention by Washington - the 'stimulus' era of excessive spending, excessive red tape, and abuse by agencies like the IRS - has left our economy treading water with slow growth, high unemployment, and stagnant wages."

Tiger Woods makes run at 59 at Bridgestone

AKRON, Ohio (AP) ? Tiger Woods had a shot at making history with a magical 59.

He swore he wasn't disappointed to come up short.

"Disappointed? Absolutely not," he said.

Then he cracked, "A 61's pretty good. I'm not bummed."

Like a pitcher having to settle for a shutout instead of a perfect game, Woods could console himself by tying his career best and building a seven-shot lead Friday through 36 holes at the Bridgestone Invitational.

Pursuing his eighth victory at Firestone Country Club, Woods opened birdie-eagle ? stuffing an approach to 3 feet at the first hole and holing a 20-footer for 3 at the par-5 second. He had two more birdies on the front nine, and had four in a row to start the back nine in a light rain.

Needing to go only 2 under over his last five holes, he missed birdie putts inside 10 feet at 15 and 17. He saved par on the last with a 25-footer after an errant drive and a shot that hit into the trees and ended up in a bare spot short and right of the green.

"How about just pleased?" he said, when asked to rate the round. "I'm very happy I was able to post that. I just kept thinking, whatever lead I had, 'Let's just keep increasing it.' It's at seven now, I believe. So that's not too bad after two days."

The 61 ? matching his career best at the 1999 Byron Nelson, 2005 Buick Open and on the same Firestone course back in 2000 ? left him at 13-under 127.

Defending champion Keegan Bradley and Chris Wood, playing the tournament for the first time, were tied for second. They each shot 68.

Bradley finished well before Woods, but was asked if it was disheartening to take the lead and then have Woods retake it after the opening two holes.

"Tiger, those first couple holes out there are definitely birdie holes, so I'd expect him to do that," Bradley said. "You know, I hope he doesn't go too low."

Sorry, Keegan.

Woods, a four-time winner this year, needed only 22 putts, eight fewer than he had Thursday in an opening 66. He hit 10 of 14 fairways and was on in regulation on 16 of 18 greens.

The next best score on a threatening day with a slate-gray sky and precipitation was a 66.

It seemed every fan on the course took notice as Woods started stacking up birdies. The magic number 59 ? shot five times on the PGA Tour ? dominated conversations.

"Oh, they were excited," Woods said. "You could hear it more than feel it. You definitely could hear it. They were into it."

Asked if that kind of electricity helps out a player, he joked, "It's nice to be playing in front of people who are excited like that, especially people who aren't yelling just because your ball gets in the air. You know, we are pros."

How good were things going for him? He yanked a drive into the trees at 13, but it ricocheted into the middle of the fairway. From there he hit an iron to 15 feet and drilled the putt.

At the 14th, Woods hit his drive on the other side of the cart path beneath a canopy of huge trees to the right. He was forced to hit a low, hard, slicing shot to the green that ran to the back fringe. From there, he chipped 10 feet past but rolled in the par putt.

The gallery seemed to swell with each hole, the crowds growing in hopes of seeing history.

He stepped off his shot into the 216-yard, par-3 15th because he was bothered by a bug, then hit an iron 10 feet short of the pin. After playing partner Hideki Matsuyama of Japan putted out, Woods missed his birdie putt on the right side.

The 667-yard 16th, dubbed "The Monster" by Arnold Palmer, resulted in another par. Woods hit a long drive that dribbled into the first cut of rough on the left side of the fairway, then laid up to about 100 yards. His wedge carried too far, however, spinning back to 30 feet. With a light sprinkle turning into a steady drizzle, he two-putted, leaving the birdie attempt short and right of the hole by 2 feet.

A huge throng, several deep around the lengthy hole, responded with polite applause as he tapped in.

He still had a chance for a 59. He hit a long drive along the left side at 17, but misread a 7-footer for birdie that missed on the low side of the break.

"I had opportunities to make putts there at 15 and 17," he said.

With the rain now falling hard, and Woods needing to hole his second shot on the par-4 18th for a 59, he drove far to the right on the slight dogleg to the left. He muscled a shot out of a difficult lie to a bare spot near a huge scoreboard right and short of the green. From there, he chipped to the back fringe ? and made the 25-footer coming back for par.

He pumped his fist as the crowd roared.

Matsuyama, a 21-year-old who was sixth at the British Open, got a close-up view.

"It was great looking at great play at the top of the world," he said.

The last player to shoot 59 in a PGA Tour event was Stuart Appleby in the final round of the Greenbrier Classic in 2010. Al Geiberger was the first in 1977, and Chip Beck, David Duval and Paul Goydos also accomplished the feat.

Bill Haas shot a 68 and was tied for fourth at 5 under with Henrik Stenson, who had a 70. Jim Furyk, Luke Donald, Jason Duffner and Bubba Watson were 4 under.

There have been 27 rounds of 60 in tour events, including Phil Mickelson this year in the Phoenix Open.

In a remarkable career spent in the spotlight, a 59 would have been just another check mark on Woods' to-do list. Instead, he didn't think it was even anything special.

"(One of my) top 10 rounds?" he said, repeating the question. "I don't know about that."

Goodell satisfied Browns owner handling probe

BEREA, Ohio (AP) ? The NFL is standing by Browns owner Jimmy Haslam.

With Haslam embroiled in a legal scandal involving his family-owned truck-stop business, Commissioner Roger Goodell expressed his confidence in Cleveland's owner and said the league has no plans to intervene or discipline him at this point.

Goodell visited Cleveland's training camp on Thursday to launch a program between the league and Pop Warner with USA Football's Heads Up Football Program. Following a clinic with young players, Goodell said he's satisfied with Haslam's handling of the federal investigation at Pilot Flying J, and said the league is proud to be associated with its newest owner.

"Jimmy Haslam is a man of great integrity," Goodell said. "We're proud to have him as an owner in the NFL and think he's going to be a great owner for the Cleveland Browns and their fans. He's as disappointed as anybody in what happened at Pilot J and he's working hard to fix it and correct those issues, both from a structural standpoint and to make amends."

Goodell added that the league has no plans to intervene at this time.

"I don't think it's a matter for us at this moment," Goodell said.

Haslam has been in the crosshairs of controversy since April 15, when the FBI and IRS raided Pilot Flying J's headquarters in Knoxville, Tenn., seizing documents and as part of a probe into wide-spread fraud at the company. Haslam has maintained he did not know about a program within his sales staff to cheat customers out of rebate and discount money. Seven employees have pleaded guilty to defrauding customers.

Goodell said Haslam assured him he knew nothing of the rebate scam.

"He's been very clear that he's had no knowledge of that and he's been clear publicly and clear with you all," Goodell said. "He doesn't need any pushing. This company means a lot to him and he's obviously not happy about what has happened and he's determined to fix it. Jimmy is more disappointed than anybody."

Pressed about what the league might do if Haslam were indicted, Goodell refused to presume anything.

"We're not going to play the hypothetical game," Goodell said. "Right now he's addressing the issues. We're confident he's going to deal with it properly. You're dealing with a bunch of hypotheticals. We're not going there."

Goodell said the league was thorough in its vetting of Haslam, who was a minority owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers before buying the Browns.

"This was a surprise to him and to his senior-level management," Goodell said. "From that standpoint, I don't think he was aware of it and I don't know any way we could have been aware of it. It was not disclosed to us."

Goodell has a well-earned reputation as being a tough disciplinarian with players. He promised to be equally firm with any owner who breaks the law.

"We actually hold ownership to a higher standard and management," he said. "I think we've proven that in what we've done. It's not just accused. As you know, in our policy, oftentimes we let the criminal process unfold because you need to do that to find out the real facts. Sometimes we don't have all the facts and we need to do that. What we look at is multiple offenders. As you know, that's a real focus for us."

Haslam and Goodell were not seen together on the field as the Browns concluded their first week of camp. Goodell spent time visiting with Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown, who has returned as an adviser with the team.

Earlier in the day, Goodell and Ohio State coach Urban Meyer conducted a football safety clinic for 500 moms of youth players in Columbus.

Although he was already in the league, Haslam underwent the same scrutiny as any owner, Goodell insisted.

"We go through the same process on any circumstance," Goodell said. "When you're going through a controlling ownership position, that's a big step up so we don't just pass that off. We do the same vetting process. Obviously he knows people in the league after being an owner, so there were certain aspects of that which were easier. But we didn't short-circuit anything."

Goodell is satisfied the investigation has not been a distraction to the Browns, who are undergoing another makeover with a new front office and coaching staff, However, Goodell did concede it's troubling one of the NFL's owners is part of federal probe.

"You never want to see this kind of thing happen, particularly to a partner in the league," Goodell said. "Obviously his partners care a great deal about him and as a partner they want to see him getting off to a good start. This is not what anybody intended, not anybody anticipated. But he's a man that I think everyone truly respects in the NFL."

Goodell said the Browns are in good hands with Haslam, whom he believes can restore the Browns to their former glory.

"Jimmy Haslam came into this with a mindset that he was going to do everything possible to get this franchise turned around in a positive direction and a team that this community will be proud of not just in any single year but consistently and to create a winner," Goodell said. "And he's brought in great talent. He's brought in great people. He set the organization obviously in a different direction. I think that's all positive and good for the fans here and ultimately good for the NFL."

NOTES: Browns coach Rob Chudzinski opened his post-practice news conference by commenting on the Indians' eight-game winning streak. "Love it," he said. ... Browns WR Josh Gordon did some team drills after missing two days with tendinitis in his knee. ... Safety T.J. Ward sat out practice with a tight hamstring. ... WR David Nelson tweaked his knee while running a pass route and was kept out. He tore his ACL last season and had knee surgery in Buffalo. ... Browns DT Brian Sanford and rookie G Garrett Gilkey got into a fight during a one-on-one drill. ... Chudzinski said OLB Quentin Groves is "having a great camp." Groves signed with Cleveland as a free agent this winter from Arizona.

Asteroid pinpointed as likely source of Russian meteor

Who's been taking potshots at Earth? A new study shows how a 200-metre-wide cluster of rocks, first spotted by scientists in 2011, could have spawned the Chelyabinsk meteor which exploded over Russia earlier this year.

If correct, that means we may need to watch out for further impacts from other fragments of the cluster, which are still at large, in orbit around the sun.

The meteor that exploded over Russia on 15 February, scattering debris across the Chelyabinsk region and injuring hundreds Movie Camera, came as a complete surprise. Since then researchers have traced it to the Apollo asteroid familyMovie Camera, but no one had matched it to a particular member of the group.

Now Carlos de la Fuente Marcos and his brother Raul, both of the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain, are pointing the finger at asteroid 2011 EO40. Roughly 200 metres wide, it is a rock ? or cluster of rocks ? previously listed as potentially hazardous by the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Rubble pile

First the pair used a computer simulation to create hypothetical orbital paths around the sun that would have intersected with Earth at the time that the meteor hit. Then they searched a database of known asteroids for ones that could have produced rocks that follow those orbits . The closest match was with 2011 EO40.

Most asteroids aren't solid rocks but rather rock clusters that have been gradually fragmenting for eons. "Most asteroids are rubble piles, very fragile," says Carlos. So the brothers also simulated the disintegration of an object the size of 2011 EO40 and showed that it could fragment to produce a Chelyabinsk-size object that would impact with Earth at the correct time.

Future observations of 2011 EO40 could help confirm it as the Chelyabinsk parent. Analysing the light bouncing off it would let us match its composition to fragments of the meteorite collected in Russia. Sending a probe to bring back samples of the asteroid is the only way to be sure, but that is a hugely expensive mission that is unlikely to happen. "The cheap but not fully conclusive approach will have to suffice for the time being," says Carlos.

Asteroid census

If 2011 EO40 really is Chelyabinsk's parent, future observations should also help us predict if Chelyabinsk has any siblings still in orbit that might also pose a threat to Earth, says Carlos. "Having a precise census of this population can help us predict similar impacts in the future."

Jorge Zuluaga of the University of Antioquia in Colombia, who traced the Chelyabinsk meteor to the Apollo asteroid family, cautions that EO40 2011 has yet to be confirmed as the parent. And even it is, he is not too worried about it spawning further impacts.

"I don't think this particular asteroid is more hazardous than others in the MPC list," he says. He also points out that the asteroid itself isn't on a direct collision course with Earth, in any case.

Meanwhile, other researchers are working to piece together the orbit of the Chelyabinsk meteor by different methods. One recent study by Simon Proud of the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, unearthed satellite pictures that show what the meteor looked like from space as it streaked through our atmosphere (see image).

Israeli Deputy Defense Minister: The Best Israel Can Hope for is Failure of Talks (VIDEO)

Likud MK Danny Danon. Photo: World Likud.

As peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority kicked off today, one Israeli deputy minister told a room of supporters in New York that the failure of the talks is in the best interests of the Jewish state The Algemeiner has learned.

Speaking at a private Manhattan gathering of supporters Deputy Defense Minister and Chair of the Likud Central Committee, Danny Danon, said that ?the best thing Israel can hope for is that nothing happens here? according to an insider speaking on condition of anonymity.

Danon explained his opposition, saying ?that the ?negotiations are biased.?

?Which one of you enters negotiations where there are already pre-conditions? Isn?t that the purpose of negotiations?? he asked, challenging the room of businessmen.

Danon also spoke about the chances of a peace deal being approved by Israel?s government. ?It you look at the government today, if you ask all the ministers you will see there is no support for such an accord,? he said.

However if a peace deal was already somewhat of a status quo said Danon, the scenario would be quite different.

?If it will get to a point that the prime minister already agreed to that, and there is a ceremony in the White House, there is support of the EU and its a done deal, you will see the other ministers changing their mind, and it will pass,? he predicted.

Danon has long been a critic of Netanyahu and the Two State Solution, and recently also blasted the appointment of Martin Indyk as the U.S. point man in the current round of peace talks, implying that he would not serve as an ?honest broker.?

A video of a short part of Danon?s remarks can be viewed below courtesy of 5WPR:

Philippines set to keep troops in Golan

AFP - The Philippines said Wednesday it would likely keep its 340 soldiers in the Golan Heights as part of a United Nations peacekeeping force, amid improved security for the troops.

Foreign Secretary Albert del Rosario told reporters the UN was close to fulfilling three conditions on upgrading safety set by the Philippines that would allow the Filipino soldiers to stay beyond August 11.

"The conditions look fine to me," del Rosario said, adding he had recommended to President Benigno Aquino that they stay for at least another six-month mission.

"I still have to go back to the president for his blessing but I don't think it will be a problem."

The Philippines is one of the major contributors to the UN Golan force, which has been monitoring a ceasefire between Syria and Israel there since 1974.

Other countries have pulled out their contingents as violence from the Syrian civil war has spilt over into the area.

The Philippines said in May that it was considering withdrawing, after two groups of Filipino troops were briefly kidnapped by Syrian rebels in separate incidents.

Both groups were released unharmed, but the wounding of another Filipino soldier from shelling in June added to the security concerns.

Del Rosario said one of the three conditions set by the Philippines was that the total peacekeeping force return to its regular strength of 1,250 soldiers.

Another was extra military equipment for the soldiers, and the third was that the Philippines be able to review the mission every six months.

Del Rosario said he was confident the numbers in the peacekeeping force would climb to 1,250 by October.

Fiji has already emerged in recent months as a saviour for the peacekeeping force, agreeing to deploy 562 soldiers.

Del Rosario also said the UN had committed to the extra military equipment. And he said the Philippines was allowed to review its mission every six months, rather than annually, until at least 2015.

The Philippines was due either to extend its mission, or withdraw, on August 11.

Better economic growth likely to follow weak Q2

WASHINGTON (AP) ? The economy is expected to have grown at a dismal pace in the April-June quarter, weighed down by large tax increases and steep government spending cuts.

But the second quarter should be the low point for the year, economists say. The fiscal drag is expected to fade. At the same time, steady hiring, more business spending and a solid recovery in housing should push growth higher in the second half of the year.

Economists forecast that growth slowed in the April-June quarter to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of just 1 percent, according to a survey by FactSet. That's below the tepid rate of 1.8 percent in the January-March quarter.

The Commerce Department will release the first estimate of gross domestic product, or GDP, for the second quarter at 8:30 a.m. EDT Wednesday. GDP is the broadest measure of the output of goods and services, including everything from manicures to industrial machinery.

Most economists say growth is already starting to pick up. And many are predicting annual growth rates of between 2 percent and 3 percent in the third and fourth quarters.

There are threats to the better outlook. Unemployment is still high at 7.6 percent, limiting consumer spending. And budget fights in Washington could lead to a government shutdown this fall, potentially disrupting the economy.

Still, recent data have been encouraging.

"More and more of the economic tea leaves are pointing in the same direction: toward a growth revival ahead," Scott Anderson, chief economist at the Bank of the West, said.

Home construction, sales and prices have been growing since early last year. Americans purchased newly built homes in June at the fastest pace in five years. That's raised builder confidence to a seven-year high, which should lead to increases in construction and more jobs.

Overall hiring has accelerated this year. Employers have added an average of 202,000 jobs a month from January through June. That's up from 180,000 in the previous six months.

Better hiring has started to boost inflation-adjusted incomes after several years of stagnant wages. Joe Carson, chief U.S. economist at AllianceBernstein, a mutual fund company, calculates that average hourly pay rose at a 3.1 percent annual rate in the second quarter, the fastest pace since the fourth quarter of 2008. That was comfortably ahead of inflation, at just 1 percent.

And business spending has started to increase. Companies have ordered more industrial machinery and other equipment for four months in a row. As those orders are filled, factory production should increase.

Manufacturing is also benefiting from strong auto sales, which topped 7.8 million in the first six months of 2013, the best first-half total since 2007. Analysts expect sales will stay strong for the rest of the year.

Carson notes that housing and autos were the primary sources of growth in the second quarter. Both have benefited from the Federal Reserve's low-interest rate policies. Those sectors usually rebound early in recoveries. But after the Great Recession ended in June 2009, they were held back by tight credit and cash-strapped consumers.

"It's almost like a traditional recovery is just starting, even though we're in the fifth year," Carson said.

Federal Reserve officials have forecast better growth in the second half of the year. And Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has said that the central bank could begin to scale back its bond purchases later this year if the economy strengthens. But Fed officials typically put greater weight on employment and inflation data than the GDP figures.

The Fed concludes a two-day policy meeting on Wednesday, at which point it could clarify its interest-rate policies.

Most economists blame tax increases and government spending cuts for the sluggish second quarter. Higher taxes slowed consumer spending. And government cuts subtracted nearly a full percentage point from growth at the start of the year.

Even so, the solid pace of hiring suggests the economy is doing better than the growth figures show. Tax receipts have been stronger. Faster growth in the second half of the year would help close those gaps.

The government is also expected to release comprehensive revisions on Wednesday. Roughly every five years, the department incorporates more recent data and adjusts how it calculates GDP.

The revisions will likely show growth was faster in the first quarter and last year than previously estimated, economist say. Michelle Meyer, an economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, estimates the revisions could add up to a half-point to last year's 2.2 percent growth rate.

The revisions will also alter GDP data all the way back to 1929. In one major change, the government plans to count spending on research and development as investment, rather than as a regular cost of doing business. That, along with other changes, will boost the level of GDP in 2007 by about 3 percent, or $450 billion. It isn't likely to significantly change the pace of growth in recent years.

Police: Ohio State back's case officially closed

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) ? A little over a week after he was suspended by Ohio State coach Urban Meyer for an alleged assault against a woman, running back Carlos Hyde had his case dropped on Tuesday by Columbus police.

Police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner said the alleged victim chose not to pursue charges against the Buckeyes' leading scorer and second-leading rusher a year ago.

"We were in the middle of our investigation," Weiner said. "The most important thing left to do was interview the (alleged) victim. She met with investigators on Saturday and informed officers that she didn't want to pursue charges."

Weiner said the case against Hyde was officially closed.

Hyde had been suspended from all team activities in the wake of the incident, which occurred July 20 at a downtown bar. Ohio State and Meyer did not immediately offer comment on whether Hyde will be reinstated to the team.

Hyde, a 6-foot-2, 242-pound senior from Naples, Fla., scored 17 touchdowns and 102 points to lead the Buckeyes to a 12-0 record last fall. He gained 970 yards on 185 carries, coming within 30 yards of becoming the first running back in Meyer's coaching career to reach 1,000 yards in a season.

At the time of his suspension ? the same day three other Buckeyes were disciplined for off-the-field legal problems ? Meyer said, "I have a clear set of core values in place that members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor. There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions."

The alleged victim approached police officers early on July 20 and said she was assaulted inside a bar at 303 S. Front St. Police looked into the allegation but Weiner said the case came to an end when she declined to pursue charges.

Ohio State opens its fall camp on Sunday. The Buckeyes' opener is Aug. 31 against Buffalo at Ohio Stadium.

In addition to Hyde, the other players disciplined on July 22 were star cornerback Bradley Roby and freshmen recruits Marcus Baugh, a tight end, and defensive lineman Tim Gardner. Each was involved in a separate incident.

Roby was arrested in Bloomington, Ind., and is facing preliminary charges of misdemeanor battery resulting in bodily injury for making contact with a bar employee. He was prevented by Meyer from representing Ohio State at last week's Big Ten football meetings in Chicago.

Baugh was removed from all team activities and will also sit out the first game of the season after being arrested for underage possession of alcohol and possessing a fake ID. Gardner, from Indianapolis was sent home and will not be a part of the 2013 team after he was charged by Columbus police with obstruction of official business.

Meyer has faced withering criticism in recent months for not meting out stiff discipline or controlling his players during his previous tenure as coach at Florida. Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, who played for Meyer at Florida, was arrested and charged with murder earlier this year and dozens of Gators players were arrested while Meyer was in charge there.

Asked about Hyde's situation during the Big Ten meetings, Meyer said, "We just have to evaluate the facts. And once I evaluate the facts, then we'll make some decisions."

Health News - Unnecessary ward moves - bad for patients, bad for ...

Unnecessary ward moves are becoming increasingly common and have adverse consequences both for patients and for hospitals, according to researchers from the University of Dundee.

Professor Marion McMurdo and Dr Miles Witham have drawn attention to the practice of 'boarding' patients - moving individuals from their own base specialty ward to other wards to accommodate influxes of new patients - in an editorial published today in Age and Ageing, the scientific journal of the British Geriatrics Society.

Professor McMurdo and Dr Witham, from the University's School of Medicine, claim that a reduction in bed numbers and an increase in hospital admissions have led to the practice becoming increasingly common, especially amongst older patients. This is despite the fact that changes of environment increase the risk of falls and delirium, problems that are associated with risk of serious injury and increased death rates.

Furthermore, boarding patients away from dedicated elderly care units deprives them of receiving Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) - a method of care which has been shown to reduce future hospital admissions and the requirement for future institutional care. The evidence shows that when frail older people are admitted to hospital and looked after in a specialist unit for older people with a dedicated multi-disciplinary team they are 25 per cent more likely to survive and be able to return to independent living at the end of their stay.

Professor McMurdo said, 'Boarding is sometimes viewed as a necessary evil - at least compared to the alternative of having no bed in which to admit patients from the overflowing acute admissions unit. Yet at a systems level, boarding appears to be a false economy - every ward move increases length of stay thus exacerbating the very problem that boarding attempts to circumvent. Worse still, frequent moves around a hospital are likely increase the risk of infection transmission, a factor Trusts have been advised to incorporate into bed management policies.'

Dr Witham said that it was an inescapable fact that the fact that hospitals face increasing pressure on bed availability as hospital bed numbers contract and emergency admissions rise.

'However, a recent survey of medical staff found that 92 per cent of doctors would refuse to have a relative of theirs boarded out - this hardly inspires confidence in the quality of care received by patients who are moved around the hospital environment.

'The majority of patients being boarded are frail, elderly and cognitively impaired because most patients admitted acutely to hospital have these characteristics, and because such patients are likely to stay in hospital long enough to fall victim to boarding. In the wake of the Francis report, we need to be honest and open with patients and their families and explain the risks associated with unnecessary ward moves.'

Ecclestone confirms no India in 2014

Bernie Ecclestone has confirmed that the Indian Grand Prix won???t feature on the 2014 F1 calendar but will then return the following season.

Ecclestone had suggested that such a move could happen in Hungary and has now confirmed that there will be no indian race on the schedule next year.

Instead, with Ecclestone preferring to run the race earlier in the season, the Indian Grand Prix will then return in 2015 when the current contract in place for five years will continue.

"When we signed the five-year deal with [promoters] Jaypee, we were keen on going to India in the first half and Jaypee wanted it to be in October," he told the IANS news agency. "We gave in at that time, but now it looks we will have the race early 2015.

"It [hosting one race in October 2014 and another in early 2015] was too close. Therefore, after speaking to promoters, we think it is best not to have a race in 2014 and have one in 2015."

Ecclestone???s confirmation is likely to see India join Australia, Bahrain, Malaysia and China in the ???flyaway??? events that come prior to the European leg of the season but also signaled a warning that it couldn???t take its place for granted in future despite his previous comments on India being important to F1.

"The second year is always difficult for the organisers," he said after attendance figures dropped last year. "I hope bigger crowds turn up for the third edition.

"I really want it to continue, but it all depends on a lot of other factors. The sport is expanding its base every year."

Facebook to make capital investments worth $1.6 billion in 2013

New York: Social networking giant Facebook, whose user base is expanding primarily on the back of rising penetration in emerging markets like India and Brazil, will make capital investments worth $1.6 billion this year.

In the first half of this year, the California-based firm incurred a capital expenditure of $595 million on setting up data centres and storage infrastructure, among others.

Besides, Facebook shelled out $221 million on acquisitions and other assets such as patents.

"We anticipate making capital expenditures in 2013 of approximately USD 1.6 billion," Facebook said in a filing to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Industry watchers feel that the company will be looking to capitalise on its user numbers and its mobile advertising base.

Bolstered by rising number of users in high growth markets like India and Brazil, Facebook raked in 61 per cent $1.60 billion -- of its total revenues from advertising in the second quarter of this year.

Internet major Google, which is also competing with Facebook, generated 92 per cent of its revenues from its advertisers in the six months ended June 30.

Facebook's investment plans for increasing infrastructure would get a boost as it posted strong second quarter results helped by a surge in userbase and rising mobile ad revenue, which now represents 41 per cent of its total revenue from advertising, they added.

Facebook posted a net income of $333 million for the April-June quarter against a loss of USD 157 million in year-ago period. Its revenue totalled $1.81 billion in the second quarter, an increase of 53 per cent, compared with $1.18 billion in the second quarter of 2012.

"Cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2013 primarily resulted from $595 million for capital expenditures related to the purchase of servers, networking equipment, storage infrastructure and the construction of data centres," Facebook said

It also spent $221 million on acquisitions of businesses and other assets like patents, according to the filing.

On the back of surging user base in the emerging markets of India and Brazil, the social networking giant saw its monthly active users jump 21 per cent to 1.15 billion at the end of June 2013.

"Users in India and Brazil represented key sources of growth in the second quarter of 2013 relative to the prior year," Facebook has said.

The firm's global daily active users (DAUs) rose by 27 per cent to 699 million on average during June 2013 from 552 million during June 2012, again helped by growth in India, Brazil and other markets
