OAK BLUFFS, Mass. (AP) -- After two outings at the golf course during his Martha's Vineyard vacation, President Barack Obama has switched to basketball.

Obama arrived at the Oak Bluffs Elementary School on Monday afternoon, within an hour of delivering a statement on the apparent end of Moammar Gadhafi's regime in Libya.
