PE ARTICLE: Tiger claws out a 2-shot lead at the PGA By DOUG FERGUSON, AP Golf Writer CHASKA, Minn. (AP)—The coronation of Tiger Woods turned into a contest Saturday at the PGA Championship. What had looked so inevitable—Woods with a four-shot lead on the weekend at a major—suddenly became filled with possibilities as his margin vanished along the back nine at Hazeltine. Only a late birdie by Woods and a lone bogey from Padraig Harrington gave the final major a familiar look. Woods, playing it safe to avoid throwing away shots, wound up with a 1-under 71 and had a two-shot lead over Harrington and Y.E. Yang. That left Woods one round away from capturing his 15th major, with more company than anyone expected. “The narrower the gap, the better,” Harrington said. But it’s still a gap. The advantage still belongs to Woods. He has never lost a major when he was leading going into the final round. Only once in his career—nine years ago—had he lost any tournament when leading by two shots or more. His conservative play allowed his lead to be cut in half. Woods found little wrong with that. “I didn’t give myself a lot of looks at putts,” he said. “I was lag putting a lot. Given the conditions and my position in the tournament, I didn’t mind it.” The only fist pump Woods delivered on a blustery afternoon came on the short par-4 14th. He hit 3-wood to the back of the green, chipped so poorly that it ran through the green and against the collar, then used the blade of his sand wedge to knock in a 15-foot birdie putt that allowed him to regain the lead. He finished at 8-under 208, ending his round just as the rain arrived in Minnesota for the first time all week. Harrington surged into a share of the lead with four birdies over an eight-hole stretch in the middle of the round, catching Woods with a 7-foot birdie putt on the 14th. Right when it appeared they would be in the final pairing for the second straight week, the Irishman made his only bogey on the third round on the last hole by hitting over the green. He wound up with a 69, and much greater hopes of defending his PGA title. “If I have to take four shots and I’ve taken two the first day, I suppose we’re halfway there,” Harrington said. “Obviously, to get a win, you’ve got to beat him by three tomorrow. That’s a tall order. But as I said, everybody in the situation who is behind is going to think, ‘Well, we have nothing to lose.’ You’ve got to have that attitude.” Harrington’s bogey put him at 6-under 210 and in the second-to-last group. Woods will play with Yang, who matched the best round of the tournament with a 67. Yang won his first PGA Tour event earlier this year at the Honda Classic, although the 37-year-old from South Korea is better known for taking down Woods at the HSBC Champions in China three years ago. They weren’t playing in the same group in 2006, however. And this will be Yang’s first time contending in a major. “It will be my first time playing with him, so I’ll try not to go over par,” he said with a smile. “But I’ve been looking forward to it. I’ve thought about playing with Tiger recently. Surprised it came true so fast.” Woods’ four-shot lead was his largest in a major after 36 holes since he led by four at St. Andrews in 2005. Just like that British Open, his margin was cut to two shots going into the final round. Suddenly, there are other challengers to try to stop Woods from winning his 15th career major, and first of the year. Henrik Stenson, who captured The Players Championship in May, had a 68 and was in the group at 4-under 212 along with U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover (71). Ernie Els pulled within one shot of the lead until he finished with three straight bogeys, leaving him with a 70 and five shots behind. He was disgusted with the end of his round, although the Big Easy spoke for so many others about the outlook Sunday. Woods has never been beaten at a major when leading. But at least they have a chance.

“You could really feel that there’s a real championship going on around you,” Els said. “It’s not a runaway deal. Looked like a runaway thing at the end of yesterday. But it looks like the guys are really set to give Tiger a go, and the crowd could sense that.” Woods, however, has a major advantage. He has never lost in America when leading by more than one shot, and the only time anyone beat him from that position was Ed Fiori at the 1996 Quad City Classic, when Woods was a 20-year-old playing his third event as a pro. Lee Westwood came from two shots behind to beat Woods in the Deutsche Bank-SAP Open in Germany in 2000. Woods appeared to be on his way when he stuffed a short iron into 4 feet for birdie on the second hole. Then came a three-putt bogey on the par-3 fourth, which he left woefully short. He missed the fairway on three par 5s, which he could have reached in two from the fairway. Instead, he was aiming away from trouble, not willing to give away shots. On this day, everyone was taking their best shot. “I thought it was going to be playing a little bit more difficult today, but it wasn’t,” Woods said. “I just felt that with my lead, I erred on the side of caution most of the time. If I did have a good look at it, I took aim right at it. Otherwise, I was just dumping the ball on the green and two-putting.” Glover pulled within two shots until he was slowed by a poor bunker shot on No. 10. Harrington made his second straight birdie with a 20-foot putt on the par-3 eighth, rolled in a 6-foot birdie on the 11th and made a few solid par saves along the way to stay close to Woods. He caught him at the 14th, then tried to get to the clubhouse without any damage. He almost made it, but caught a flyer out of the rough and over the 18th green. Woods looked as though he couldn’t wait to get off the course, either. After his lone back-nine birdie at No. 14, he hit a terrible pitch at the par-5 15th that came up 40 feet short. He pulled a 7-iron over the 16th green near a TV tower. His hand came flying off the club on his tee shot at the par-3 17th. And when he finally gave himself a birdie chance at the 18th, he missed it badly. Solace came from seeing his name atop the leaderboard. And he wasn’t about to trade that position with anyone. Asked if he would have enjoyed playing Harrington on Sunday, Woods smiled. “Well, no,” he said. “Because if I was, I’d have a one-shot lead.”

PE ARTICLE: Wright beaned in fourth inning by Cain’s pitch By HOWIE RUMBERG, AP Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP)—David Wright(notes) sustained a concussion after being hit squarely in the helmet by a 94 mph fastball from Giants starter Matt Cain(notes) on Saturday, and the Mets third baseman was expected to spend the night in the hospital. Wright was examined in the clubhouse before being taken by ambulance to the Hospital for Special Surgery. Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz said Wright had a CT scan, which was negative. The Giants beat the Mets 5-4 in 10 innings. Wright didn’t have time to react to Cain’s 0-2 pitch in the fourth inning. It hit him just above the brim of the helmet, sending it flying as Wright fell to the ground in the right-handed batter’s box.

“Those are frightening moments for everybody,” New York manager Jerry Manuel said. Wright lay motionless on his stomach for more than a minute before trainers helped turn him onto his back. One trainer kneeled by Wright’s side and talked to him. After Wright was turned over, he sat up and a trainer shone a light in his eyes. Manuel said he didn’t talk to Wright when was on the ground, but he saw “his eyes go back and forward a bit.” Manuel thought Wright said he was all right when he sat up. Mets outfielder Jeff Francoeur(notes) visited Wright in the clubhouse, shortly after the All-Star walked off the field with minimal help. Francoeur said Wright made a joke from the Chris Farley movie “Tommy Boy” about where he was hit in the head. “He was all shook up when I came in,” Francoeur said. “He was scared.” Cain, who had thrown just seven balls in his first 35 pitches, walked halfway toward the plate and sat in a crouch as trainers tended to Wright. Players and managers agreed that Cain wasn’t trying to throw at Wright. Cain and Johan Santana(notes) had been locked in a scoreless matchup. Seemingly rattled, Cain gave up a run before settling down and pitching into the eighth. “He felt horrible,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “That’s the last thing he wanted to do, but he regained his composure.” Said Cain: “It was nice to see him walk off the field. It was definitely a situation where you hoped there’s no blood. I’ll see if I can get a hold of him tomorrow.” Regardless of intent, Francoeur said something had to be done. “When the third-hole hitter gets dosed in the head, you got to comeback at them a little bit,” he said. And that’s what Santana did. The Mets’ All-Star starter threw behind the back of Pablo Sandoval(notes), missing him entirely in the seventh inning and drawing a warning for both teams from plate umpire Brian O’Nora. Sandoval responded by hitting a home run, boosting the Giants’ lead to 4-1. Santana then hit the next batter, catcher Bengie Molina(notes), but wasn’t ejected. Bochy came out to argue with O’Nora that Santana should have been tossed. “He didn’t think it was intentional,” Bochy said of O’Nara’s explanation. “That’s his call.” Wright has played in all but one of the Mets’ 116 games this season, and has been a stabilizing force in a lineup ravaged by injuries. He joins Carlos Beltran(notes), Carlos Delgado(notes) and Jose Reyes among the Mets’ injured stars. “It will be difficult for us. He has played through a number of things— nagging injuries, fatigue,” Manuel said of Wright, who didn’t start Tuesday in Arizona because he had a cold. “He was going out there for us every day.” Fernando Tatis(notes) ran for Wright and stayed in the game at third. He had an RBI single during the Mets’ eighth-inning rally.

HEALTH ARTICLE: Mimicking Behavior May Help Form Social Bonds By HealthDay - Sat Aug 15, 2009 Capuchin monkeys playing with a wiffle ball preferred the company of researchers who mimicked their motions over researchers who didn't, according to the study in the Aug. 14 issue of Science. Imitation promotes social bonding, encourages strangers to become friends and underpins the formation of social groups, the study authors explained. "Researchers have known that human beings prefer the behavior of other people who subtly imitate their gestures and other affects," said Dr. Duane Alexander, director of the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, in a news release from the U.S. National Institutes of Health. "Observing how imitation promotes bonding in primates may lead to insights in disorders in which imitation and bonding is impaired, such as certain forms of autism." When given a ball, the capuchin monkeys, chosen because they're known to form close social bonds, either probed it with their fingers, put in their mouths or pounded it on a surface. Each monkey was then paired with two researchers, each of whom had their own wiffle ball. One person did the same motion as the monkey they were paired with -- either probing, mouthing or pounding the ball. The other did something different, such as pounding the ball when the monkey probed it. After the experiment, the monkeys consistently spent more time near the researcher who imitated them than with the one who did not, according to the investigators at the National Institutes of Health and two Italian research institutions. When given the opportunity to take a small trinket from the researcher's hand and then return it for a small food reward, the monkeys also tended to choose the person who'd imitated them. Capuchin monkeys in the wild are known to match each others' behaviors when feeding, traveling or avoiding predators. Such mimicry may provide the basis for social groups. "It has been argued that the link between behavior matching and increases in affiliation might have played an important role in human evolution by helping to maintain harmonious relationships between individuals," wrote the authors. "We propose that the same principle also holds for other group-living primates." Humans have also been observed mirroring the posture, gestures and mannerisms of people they encounter, the researchers pointed out in the news release. The behavior is unconscious, they noted. Although neither party is aware that the imitation is occurring, people often feel affection and empathy for their imitators. Previous research has shown people are more likely to help their imitators and leave more generous tips. The current paper is the first to show that imitation plays a role in monkey's social bonding as well, according to the authors.

HEALTH ARTICLE: International Travel Health Guidebook Gets Updated By HealthDay - Sat Aug 15, 2009 The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released a new edition of CDC Health Information for International Travel, sometimes known as "The Yellow Book" for its distinctive cover, which provides medical recommendations to help travelers prepare for trips outside the United States and tips for staying healthy while away. The book contains updated information on major health risks in various countries, vaccinations, jet lag, cruise ship travel, traveling with disabilities or children, international adoptions and immigrants visiting their native countries. The 2010 edition includes a section on medical tourism, the increasingly popular practice of traveling abroad to combine medical procedures and leisure activities. A recent study estimated that more than 500,000 Americans traveled internationally to receive health care, usually in an effort to curb medical costs. The authors chose travel health experts from different popular and exotic locales to educate readers about the conditions and health risks that exist at these destinations. As medical standards can vary by country, this is especially important for those seeking or requiring health care abroad. Among new features included in the 2010 edition are: 

Important advice for those traveling to newly popular destinations that may be unfamiliar to U.S. doctors, including eastern and southern Africa's safari regions, Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, and India, China, Costa Rica and Nepal.



Information about drug-drug and drug-vaccine interactions, which travelers need to be aware of when receiving vaccines, and about medications for trips abroad.



A discussion about travel and mental health.



A look at common post-travel illnesses, their causes and when treatment should be sought.
