LEEDS — A home in Leeds went up in flames Thursday morning after an emergency caller reported a propane tank was on fire, officials said. A woman and her dog were able to escape the burning house but three cats are missing and may have perished. First responders were called to the scene at 348 Cairo Junction Road at about 2:20 a.m. The caller reported that a propane tank was on fire behind the home, according to the 911 alert. An unidentified Cairo

firefighter was injured while fighting the blaze, Cairo firefighter Gerry Buckley said. “He was taken to Hudson hospital,” Buckley said. The firefighter, also from Cairo, suffered a shoulder injury. A female occupant of the home and her dog were able to escape the blaze, Buckley said. The property is owned by Carol Young, according to Greene County property records. The exact cause and origin of the fire remain under investigation, Buckley said.

CHATHAM — Dozens of children from Columbia County participating in 4-H will be showing their livestock this year at the Columbia County Fair. From rabbits and sheep to heifers and goats, children spend months caring for their animals and preparing them for judging. Here are a few faces of 4-H

you might meet at the fair this year:

KYLIE BROWN Kylie, 12, of Valatie, will be starting 7th grade at Ichabod Crane Central School District this year. She has been showing heifers at the fair for four years, but has been coming to the Columbia County fair for six years. Her favorite thing about the fair is seeing all the cows. Her other hobby is track and field.

She is showing her sixmonth-old heifer, Moo York, at the under-one-year competition. The thing she says most people would be surprised about caring for cows is how they have to clean their ears. “You get baby oil and put it on a tissue and you wipe out all the wax,” she said. “They can get pretty waxy.” See FAIR A2

Speeding again an issue on Woodland By Sarah Trafton

Columbia-Greene Media

CATSKILL — Village residents will have a chance to voice their opinions on a pair of new stop signs on Woodland Avenue next month. The signs were erected at the intersections of Day Street and Woodland Avenue, and Grace Court and Woodland Avenue, in early August, following a traffic study by village police. The board of trustees at Wednesday’s meeting scheduled a public hearing for the signs on Sept. 25.

The study was prompted by concerned residents, Trustee Peter Grasse said. High speeds on Woodland Avenue, which is between a quarter-mile and half a mile in length, have been a persistent problem for many years. Previous village boards have voiced concern about danger to small children and other pedestrians. “We had complaints of people speeding on Woodland Avenue,” Grasse said. “We also had complaints of the road being used for a shortcut. People were not going to the

intersection at Spring Street.” Catskill police monitored the street both with officers and electronic equipment and found drivers were ignoring the posted speed limit, Grasse said. The speed limit on village streets, except for school zones, is 30 mph. “We put stop signs at a couple of intersections to slow down traffic,” Grasse said. But the state differs from that assessment. Stop signs are not See SPEEDING A2

The residence is considered a total loss, Buckley said. “I do believe Red Cross has been notified,” Buckley said. Fire officials alerted the Red Cross at the family’s request. Leeds Fire Chief Thomas

McCullough could not be reached for comment. A fundraiser has been started for the occupant of the home, Mary Young. “After major ankle surgery, her mom in a rehabilitation center after major surgery, Mary awakened to a loud noise and being thrown across the fiery room without her crutches,” according to the fundraiser page. “Mary was able to leave the house saving

their family dog but could not save her kitty babies.” Photos of the family’s cats, named Molly, Bella and Bailey, are being shared on Facebook, in case they got out of the house and are missing. “[Mary] is left with the clothes on her back,” according to the post. “Their house is leveled, leaving nowhere called home to return to anytime soon.” The fire was a close call

for the family, according to Catskill Fire Department. “The family was extremely lucky and we are obviously very thankful for no fatalities,” according to a post on the department’s Facebook page. Catskill, Leeds, Cairo, Kiskatom and West Athens fire departments were called to the scene. Hudson Fire Department sent an engine to Catskill during the call.

BELLA VANSCHAIK Bella, 9, of Ancram, will be attending fourth grade of Taconic Hills Central School District this year. This is her first year participating in 4-H. Bella got her start in 4-H because she grew up around cows, and her grandfather owns a dairy enterprise, Triple Creek Farm. Her music teacher is her 4-H leader. She

is competing in the 4-H Showmanship competition and the Open Show competition on Saturday. Her favorite activity outside of 4-H is playing soccer. “We get to work with the cows,” she said. “I like hanging out with them.” During the summer, she has been at the farm almost every day to give her cow, Uni, baths, brush her and to take her for walks. She loves cows because they are

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is set to unveil a proposal that would step back from federal regulation specifically targeting methane emissions at oil and gas facilities, potentially staving off requirements for a million existing U.S. wells. A White House review of the proposal has been concluded, setting the stage for Thursday’s announcement, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be named before the

decision has been made public. Under the proposal, parts of the oil and gas industry — such as production from individual wells and natural gas transmission — would be considered distinct, separate segments. EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler said in May that if the oil and gas sector were split, it wasn’t clear methane emissions from those sources would be high enough to trigger Clean Air Act controls. The proposal comes at a time of increasing anxiety about the effects of climate

change. It also threatens to undermine the oil industry’s sales pitch that natural gas is a climate-friendly source of electricity — a cleaner-burning alternative to coal that can help power an energy-hungry world for decades to come. Dozens of oil companies have made voluntary pledges to keep methane in check, and some have warned the Trump administration that federal regulation specifically targeting it is essential for natural gas to maintain that reputation. “Stakeholder confidence in natural gas is hanging by

Another sign was recently added at the intersection of Bridge Street and Spring Street, Kozlowski said. “Residents were complaining about speeding, but we have that same problem all over the village,” he said. “Drivers do not follow our 30 mph speed limit. We can’t have a police officer sitting at every corner in the village.” Darling said that speed was not the primary issue. “It was the amount of traffic,” Darling said. “People were using it as a shortcut to get to the bridge.” There were a number of close calls where collisions almost occurred, Darling said. Stop signs have been effective so far and the board will

likely vote on the same night as the hearing, Grasse said. The village does not plan to pursue adding speed bumps on the street, Grasse said. “We don’t want to risk damage to our plows or personal vehicles,” he said. “This is a simpler solution.” Catskill police have also been monitoring traffic on Grandview Avenue, West Bridge Street and Spring Street, Grasse said.

For Jackson, 10, of Valatie, this is his first year showing his six-month-old heifer, Virginia, in the under-one-year category. He will be starting fifth grade at Ichabod Crane this year. When he is not showing, his favorite fair activity is watching the hot dog pig races and eating fried dough. Jackson, who has been going to the Columbia County Fair since he was a baby, said he loves walking around the fair with his family. Outside of the fair, his favorite hobbies are flag football, baseball, tennis, golf and riding horses. White has been caring for his heifer all summer, a job that includes taking the cow for walks, practicing to walk around the show ring and cleaning out her stalls. “I am really excited to show her,” he said. “I love everything about coming to the

recommended as a method of speed control, according to the 2011 New York State Traffic Sign Handbook for Local Roads. “There is some evidence that frequent stop signs may actually increase the speed between the signs,” according to the manual. “Excessive use of stop signs can lead to disregard for them.” Trustee Joseph Kozloski said the board was following the suggestion of Department of Public Works Superintendent Michael McGrath and Police Chief David Darling.

Tractor Supply Company celebrates 92nd annual FFA Convention HUDSON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tractor Supply Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth annual FFA Convention Tshirt fundraiser launches this week in stores nationwide. For a limited time, Tractor Supply customers can purchase a limited edition FFA Convention-themed long sleeve T-shirt to celebrate the 92nd National FFA Convention & Expo, which takes place later this fall. Net proceeds from Tshirt sales will go directly to the National FFA Foundation and will be used to fund programs and activities for FFA chapters across the country. The limited-edition Tshirt has the official FFA Convention & Expo logo printed across the front, which consists of hexagonal molecules and gold rows. The molecules represent the innovative side of FFA, and the gold rows represent crops â&#x20AC;&#x201D; serving as a tip of the hat to traditional agriculture. Customers can purchase the shirt for $12.99 (plus tax) at any Tractor Supply store beginning Aug. 29. The shirt will also be available to purchase online with an in-store pickup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tractor Supply looks forward to holding the annual FFA Convention Tshirt fundraiser because it spotlights the future leaders of our country who are making their mark on the agriculture industry,â&#x20AC;? said Christi Korzekwa, senior vice president of marketing at Tractor Supply. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our customers and team members are inspired by FFAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision to develop leaders, build communities and strengthen agriculture,

and this annual fundraiser provides an opportunity for them to continue investing in causes they care about.â&#x20AC;? Funds raised this year will benefit three FFA programs: Gift of Gold, Living to Serve and Alumni Legacy Grants. This year is the debut year for Gift of Gold, a program that awards grants to chapters devastated by natural disasters. Living to Serve is a program that empowers students to positively impact their communities through leadership opportunities, and the Alumni Legacy Grants enable local chapters to help local high schools build or strengthen their alumni chapters. In 2018, this T-shirt fundraiser generated more than $340,000 for chapters nationwide through the Living to Serve and Alumni Legacy grants. Since the start of this fundraiser, Tractor Supply has raised a total of $1.1M for FFA programs. In addition to being sold in Tractor Supply stores, the shirts will be available at the 92nd National FFA Convention & Expo, held Oct. 30 - Nov. 2 in Indianapolis. The event is one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest student conventions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with nearly 70,000 attendees and more than 400 exhibiting companies â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that brings FFA members together to inspire their peers and celebrate their many accomplishments.

OUR VIEW

Taking test scores to the next level is complex This week’s release of the state Education Department’s math and English language arts test results for grades 3-8 in schools statewide again called attention to local school districts’ quandary with providing high-end education at an affordable price for taxpayers. In the Twin Counties, the results were mixed, with several districts scoring below the state average for students testing at proficient levels, scoring a 3 or 4 on state standardized tests in math and English. Only one district, New Lebanon, in Columbia County, reached the 50% mark. Fifty-one percent

scored a 3 or 4 in English and 50% did so in math. In Columbia County, the numbers were below the state average but remained fairly steady in 2019 versus 2018. In English language arts, 38% of students scored at proficient levels in both 2018 and 2019; in math, the number of proficient scores rose from 35% last year to 37% this year. In Greene County, the number of proficient English scores dipped slightly from 32% in 2018 to 31% in 2019, with math scores rising a total of three percentage points, from 34% last year to 37% this year. The nuances of all these statistics can be frustrat-

ing to navigate, but there is something to be said for them. It is encouraging to see the math test scores, which have been a source of perennial concern, locally and statewide, rise two points in Columbia County and three points in Greene County. School superintendents in the Twin Counties are all in at attempting to elevate math and English language arts test scores to the next level, one that is ever closer to the elusive state average. It’s an important effort because it is an effort to give our children the best education possible.

The lesson from both may be that a presidential candidate cannot be about just one thing or one group of voters. What we can say is that the successful candidates so far during this cycle were either very well known (Biden, Sen. Bernie Sanders); had a distinct following coming into the race (Warren among progressives); or have shown extraordinary retail and media skill in forging an emotional connection with voters (Harris). What explains why Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, someone with much lighter credentials, would have broken out? In a slickly put-together exit video, Gillibrand certainly emphasized her determination to elect women up and down the ticket. She told the Times she’d consider endorsing someone but hadn’t picked a favorite. One would imagine, true to her advocacy for women, that she would choose one of the three women who have qualified for the September debate. And while a candidate who never caught on might not, in normal times, be a coveted endorsement, in this case, Gillibrand’s support might help elevate one of the remaining women as the best chance for a female nominee and president.

Recycling isn’t what it used to be Recycling just ain’t what it used to be. Climate change, plastic straws and algae blooms seem to have taken center stage in environmental news lately. And early last year China said “Sorry, no more” to most of the recycling we had been sending them for decades, sending our recycling industries into a tailspin that is still felt today. Recently, recycling in plastic bags became a no-no in Columbia County. And to top it off, starting this year county residents recycling their household waste at any County-operated transfer station must purchase a $50 annual permit to do so. When will the recycling insanity end? If trends are any indication, it’s going to be a while if any improvements do come our way. The price per ton that Columbia County Solid Waste Department (CCSWD) pays to get rid of all the cans, bottles, newspaper and boxes that we send their way hit an all-time high in the month of July, crossing an unfortunate milestone that was unimaginable even a year ago. All county residents/taxpayers, whether they recycle or not, are now pitching in to pay over $100/ton to recycle. Last month CCSWD sent 15 trailers of single-stream recycling to Casella Recycling in Vermont to have our disposables sorted and sent to markets. At a price of $61.39/ton, the 212 tons of recycling in those trailers cost us $13,050. Casella also charges us $600 to transport each trailer to their facility, adding another $9,000 to the bill. The total on last month’s invoice from Casella was a whopping record of $22,050.29. Each ton of that waste cost us exactly $103.73. This is a truly astounding turn of events and should give us all pause. To put things in perspective, in January of 2017, just two-and-a-half years ago,

MY VIEW

BILL

HUSTON CCSWD sent 284 tons of recycling to Casella and received a bill for just $3,211, or about $11.30 per ton. We are now paying nearly 10 times that amount. Back then, Casella actually paid us $13.40/ton for the recyclables, but the transportation charges kept us from receiving a check from them. One year ago, in July of 2018, Casella Recycling charged us just $10 per ton of material (excluding transportation). We are currently paying over six times that amount. Late last year at a public County DPW meeting when the recycling permit idea was becoming a reality, the director of CCSWD, Jolene Race, spoke of the challenges facing the recycling industry and municipalities trying to keep recycling alive, but said that domestic markets would eventually help fill the void made by China’s ban on our waste, and that this “might take a few years before we see any turnaround.” When Ms. Race spoke, CCSWD was paying around $75 per ton to Casella Recycling. In April, May and June of this year the price per ton hovered just below $100. The trend is not encouraging at all. Recycling, especially the single-stream approach, as many are discovering of late, is turning out to be a truly expensive endeavor, and even a failure in some places that can no longer afford to offer it.

Are there any positives on the horizon, any succor in all this recycling turmoil? For one, Greene County still recycles the old-fashioned way at their four transfer stations, eschewing single stream for the separateit-yourself approach. Recycling is still offered at no charge across the river. At some point we will have to do the same over here. Second, our friends at Casella don’t just handle our recycling — they are primarily a garbage company which owns nine landfills in the Northeast, including the Ontario County landfill where they currently dispose all of our garbage (trailers of trash go straight from CCSWD’s Greenport Transfer Station to the landfill located in the Finger Lakes region). If and when the powers-that-be in Columbia County decide that the numbers no longer justify the effort to recycle, Casella will gladly transport our former recyclables to one of their landfills. And we’d save a lot of money. Last month Casella charged us around $58 per ton, including transportation, for the garbage we produced and sent to one of CCSWD’s nine transfer stations. That would be a 44% reduction in cost from $103.73 if it were to happen now! My prediction is that unless CCSWD follows Greene County’s and others’ fiscally and environmentally responsible ways, the above scenario will play out some time in the next two years as recycling markets fail to rebound. How far above $103.73 per ton to recycle will will CCSWD and Columbia County taxpayers deem justifiable? Bill Huston is a bicycle mechanic and environmental activist obsessed with garbage and related issues. He has been a resident of Hudson for five years.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Comments have some merit To the editor: Several issues of this newspaper have reported on the Vietnam War Traveling Memorial Wall and the ceremony commemorating those 58,200 Americans who lost their lives in that war. Past Commander of American Legion Honeyford Memorial Post 110 Catskill Tom Andreassen, the master of ceremonies, in his remarks, included comments that some persons regarded as being inappropriate in that they were politically motivated, thereby violating the sanctity

of the ceremony. When judged by the standards of a respectful society that apply to this and similar ceremonies held in the past, the criticism has merit, but the past is then and this is now. Let’s not forget that the reason we have 58,200 dead is gross mismanagement of the war from start to finish by politicians elected by the people. The harvest they reaped is now on display in this exhibit. The war was fought to halt the advance of communism in Vietnam. Communism is the grotesque child of

mismanaged socialism. The platforms posited by each of the 20 or so Democrat presidential candidates is socialist dogma. Commander Andreassen gets the picture. “Avoid a socialist government now and also a very possible confrontation over communism by this generation or the next.” The loss of a little sanctity now is better than the loss of a lot of freedom later. Many thanks to Commander Andreassen for the wake up call. VINCENT WALLACE HUDSON

Benjamin P. Roosa, Jr Benjamin P. Roosa, Jr., a lifelong area resident died on August 28, 2019 at Vassar Brothers Hospital, Poughkeepsie, New York. Born in Beacon, New York on November 22, 1931, he was the son of the late former Beacon City Court Judge, Hon. Benjamin P. Roosa and Marion (Fleming) Roosa. He was a direct descendant of the early Dutch and French Huguenots who were the first European settlers in the Hudson Valley. Ben was raised in Beacon, attended Spring Street School and Beacon High School. As a youth he participated in many community affairs and played on the Beacon High School football team. Ben received his AB from Columbia College and his JD from Albany Law School of Union University. After graduation, he joined his father’s law practice in Beacon, NY in 1957 and was later joined by his daughter, Elizabeth. They continue to operate “Roosa & Roosa”, family owned and operated since 1927. He was always involved in the community and in his Church.

Trump says U.S. and China plan to have ‘a talk’ on trade war Scott Lanman Bloomberg

President Donald Trump said Thursday that the U.S. and China are scheduled to have a conversation about trade without giving details. Trump’s comments followed signs from China that it wouldn’t immediately retaliate against the latest U.S. tariff increase and wanted to focus on removing new tariffs, to prevent a further escalation of the trade war. “There is a talk scheduled for today at a different level,” Trump said when asked in a Fox News radio interview if September talks with China are still on. “I promise I’m not going to give up” on the tariff war with China, he added when asked about concerns expressed by Republican senators and others that uncertainty on trade was contributing to a U.S. economic slowdown. A report earlier Thursday showed U.S. economic growth decelerated in the second quarter by more than initially reported, suggesting the president’s trade actions are weighing more heavily on the pace of expansion. Stocks across Asia pared losses and U.S. stocks rallied alongside European stocks Thursday as investors saw reason for trade-talk optimism.

Shipping containers sit stacked next to gantry cranes at the Yantian International Container Terminals in Shenzhen, China, on Dec. 13, 2018.

But investors have sent bond yields plummeting in recent weeks amid growing concern the record-long U.S. expansion is approaching an end. “China has ample means for retaliation, but thinks the question that should be discussed now is about removing the new tariffs to prevent escalation of the trade war,” Ministry of Commerce spokesman Gao Feng told reporters in Beijing on Thursday. “China is lodging solemn representations with the U.S. on the matter.” When asked if that meant China wouldn’t retaliate at all for the latest escalation by the U.S., Gao didn’t elaborate but repeated the same comments.

Gao’s remarks came amid signs China’s economy slowed further in August, according to a Bloomberg Economics gauge aggregating the earliest available indicators from financial markets and businesses. The U.S. announced new tariff rates earlier this month on $300 billion of Chinese goods that will come into effect in September and December. Beijing then retaliated last week, announcing its own higher import taxes. That prompted a reaction from Trump, who tweeted that existing 25% tariffs on some $250 billion in imports from China would rise to 30% come Oct. 1, the 70th anniversary of

Hurricane Dorian is on a collision course with Florida Matthew McConaughey joins the Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs The New York Times News Service

Forecasters’ warnings grew increasingly dire Thursday as they ratcheted up their expectations for Hurricane Dorian, saying it could hit the Florida coast as a Category 4 storm, with winds of at least 130 mph. The storm was about 200 miles northwest of San Juan, Puerto Rico, which had escaped much of the storm’s wrath, and was drawing strength from the warm waters of the Atlantic on Thursday. Forecasters said the hurricane could make landfall Monday morning, but models have shown divergent tracks for the storm’s path, so officials have warned Floridians from Miami to Jacksonville to prepare for a battering. The National Hurricane Center warns that a Category 4 storm can cause “catastrophic damage,” peeling off roofs and uprooting trees and power lines. Tropical-storm-force winds (at least 39 mph) could begin blowing into Florida as soon as Saturday night. The center of the hurricane, now a Category 1 storm, is predicted to pass

over the Bahamas on Sunday and near the eastern coast of Florida early Monday. Forecasters predict that the hurricane will drop 4 to 8 inches of rain in Florida, with up to a foot expected in some isolated areas. Another serious concern are life-threatening storm surges, when water levels rise dramatically and push far inland, flooding neighborhoods. About half of hurricane deaths can be attributed to storm surges. Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida has declared an emergency for counties in the storm’s path, and officials are warning all coastal residents to prepare for the storm by gathering food and other supplies. “Because of the uncertainty in the track of this storm, every resident along the East Coast needs to be ready,” Jared Moskowitz, the director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management, said. Dorian struck Puerto Rico with a glancing blow Wednesday, bringing back difficult memories as the first big storm to threaten the island since Hurricane Maria tore through two years ago.

University of Texas as a professor Laura M. Holson The New York Times News Service

Matthew McConaughey, the Oscar-winning actor and producer, has joined the faculty of the University of Texas at Austin and will teach a class this fall. McConaughey has been a visiting instructor in the university’s department of radio, television and film at the Moody College of Communication since 2015. His new role represents “a mutually beneficial relationship and recognizes the contribution he has made to the university,” Noah Isenberg, chairman of the department, said in an interview Thursday. “This formalizes our relationship. His passion for film is boundless.” McConaughey has a home in Austin and earned a film degree from the university in 1993. This fall, a class of about 40 students will study two movies McConaughey has starred in: “The Gentlemen,” due next year, and the 2012 drama “Mud.” Jeff Nichols, the

director of “Mud,” is scheduled to visit the class. “It’s the class I wish I would have had when I was in film school,” McConaughey said in a statement. “The elements of truth and genuine joy for the process are timeless. That will always be our classroom focus.” McConaughey first gained attention in 1993 as a 20-something stoner in “Dazed and Confused.” In the early 2000s, he starred in a series of romantic comedies alongside Jennifer Lopez, Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker. He later became known for more serious roles, winning an Oscar for the 2013 movie “Dallas Buyers Club,” in which he played an electrician and rodeo cowboy who imported experimental drugs to combat AIDS after he contracted HIV. And his fans — and a few friends — have poked fun at how often he is photographed shirtless. In 2006, Matt Damon did an impression of McConaughey on the “Late Show With David Letterman.” Actors and directors have

long taught college students the craft of filmmaking and the business of Hollywood. Spike Lee, Oscar-winning director of “Do the Right Thing” and “BlacKkKlansman,” taught a course at Harvard University in 1992 called “Contemporary African-American Cinema,” which explored the history of black cinema in the United States since 1964. In the late 1990s, Oprah Winfrey taught a class in leadership at Northwestern University’s Kellogg Graduate School of Management. While students were thrilled, she got a cool reception from some of the faculty members. “There was a genuine concern that the sensationalization may not be good for the institution,” Walter D. Scott, a fellow professor, said at the time. The University of Texas thinks differently. Isenberg, the department chairman, said he had discussed the new position with McConaughey over lunch in June. “Matthew is the cultural ambassador of Austin,” he said.

the founding of the People’s Republic of China. He also lifted planned levies on $300 billion in Chinese goods due on Sept. 1 and Dec. 15 even higher. “China’s been ripping off the United States,” Trump said in the interview with Fox News. “I think they want to make a deal, I sort of think they have to make a deal, and we’ll see what happens.” Trump’s remarks follow comments Wednesday by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who said U.S. trade officials expect Chinese negotiators to visit Washington, but wouldn’t say whether a previously planned September meeting would take place.

Columbia County’s prize-winning fair CHATHAM — Every year, preparation for the big day begins just days after the last fair closes. Discussions of what went well and what could be improved lead to changes on the Agricultural Society’s “to do” list. This year, there was some re-design to the office building as well as the replanting of a few good-sized trees, giving more shade for fairgoers. Conversations about the Horse Show led to improvements for horses and riders (and viewers) by moving the event to the Main Arena. The entertainment committee reviewed an assortment of major singers before deciding on country singer/songwriter Frankie Ballard, a Nashville recording artist with three gold records in his hip pocket. Ballard will perform on Sunday evening at 7 p.m. They also booked a local “Voice” phenom, Moriah Formica, for a Sunday afternoon show at 3 p.m. All over the county, talent hopefuls are honing their acts for “Columbia County Has Talent.” Youngsters, teens and

Blue ribbons wanted. Whether animal or vegetable, 4-Hers, farmers and future farmers have prepped their entries for submission to competitions at the Columbia County Fair in Chatham this weekend.

adults who participate can choose to move on to the New York State Fair and try their luck against equally stiff competition. Those who have a flourcovered thumb can submit cookies, breads and muffins and see how they stack up. And “green-thumbers” will be picking their prize-winning squash,

carrots, cukes, tomatoes, etc. And GIANT pumpkins. Don’t forget the GIANT pumpkins. For fans who prefer V-8s to veggies, the Demolition Derby, Professional Truck Pull, Antique Tractor Pull and Monster Tractor Pull should make enough noise and burn enough fuel to compete with jet engines. There

will even be a 99 Race Car on Display. The fair has plenty for everyone. The Firefighters Parade, with more than 40 companies participating, steps off on Saturday at 11a.m. Other acts include a comedy hypnotist, the Kenya Safari Acrobats, magician Jay Mattioli, the Painted Pony Rodeo, Racing Pigs, a barbershop quartet, watermelon eating and more.

Lime Rock Park’s Historic Festival 37 to celebrate Italian masterpieces LAKEVILLE, Conn.—The Historic Festival at Lime Rock Park, now in its 37th year, is staged to be one of the year’s largest gatherings of historic and vintage Italian-made vehicles in North America. Held over Labor Day Weekend, Aug. 29-Sept. 2, the festival is the only North American classic car race and concours held on the same track over the same weekend. This year, with Italian masterpieces being its premier theme, the event is poised to be one of the largest gatherings of its kind in the U.S. A plethora of extraordinary Ferraris, including two GTOs, a P2, and a 12-cylinder Testarossa, will be showcased at the event’s Sunday in the Park Concours, held Sunday, Sept. 1. A special treat will be the appearance of the third Ferrari ever built, the first sold commercially and the oldest surviving Ferrari. This 1947 Ferrari 159 Spyder Corsa will be brought in by Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus. Also appearing will be the Sebring 12-Hour Race Winning OSCA MT4 driven by legendary driver Sir Stirling Moss. “This will undoubtedly be one of the best displays of classic Italian cars ever assembled in one place,” said Murray

Among the iconic Italian-made masterpieces that will be featured at Lime Rock during the Historic Festival’s Sunday in the Park Concours, held on Sunday, Sept. 1, is this 1962 Ferrari 250GTO. The car will be exhibited under the name of Scuderia N. E.

Smith, Historic Festival chairman, adding that Lugi Chinetti Jr., an icon in Ferrari motorsports in the U.S., will be attending the festival as its honored guest. Spectators will be immersed in a treasury of Italian machinery — many Alfa Romeos as well as examples of Lamborghini, DeTomaso, Osca, Siata, Stanguelini, Maserati and Moretti. To cap the event off, two world championship rally

winning Lancias will be showcased along Lime Rock’s Front Straight on Sunday. About Lime Rock Park’s Historic Festival: Held over Labor Day Weekend, Thursday, Aug. 29 - Monday Sept. 2, Lime Rock Park’s Historic Festival and the Sunday in the Park Concours has been a time-honored tradition since 1982.

there throughout the recording process for this third album. “There’s rock and roll. There’s country stories and country lyrics and country

songs,” he said. “And there’s a lot of blues swagger and blues guitar playing. It’s all those things together. It’s just my own brand of American music.” The 179th Columbia County Fair, Route 66 (GPS: 182 Hudson Avenue), Chatham, opened Wednesday, Aug. 28 and runs through Monday, Labor Day, Sept. 2.

Penn State to open college football season led by defense Joe Juliano The Philadelphia Inquirer

The 2019 Penn State offense has the potential to be very good given the speed at the skill positions. But with youth, a new quarterback and two starting spots to be filled along the offensive line before Saturday’s season opener against Idaho, it may take the Nittany Lions a while to put things together. The Lions defense, on the other hand, possesses more experience at key positions and is coming off a season where it finished in the FBS top 25 in six categories, including average points allowed (20.5, 23rd), pass defense (181.5 yards, 15th), and sack average (3.62, 1st). So the defense may be called upon to carry the team, at least early in the season, while the offense and the quarterback, whether it’s redshirt sophomore Sean Clifford or redshirt freshman Will Levis, find their stride against hostile opponents instead of fellow teammates. That may sound like pressure, but fifth-year senior cornerback John Reid doesn’t see it that way. “I think the most pressure we’re going to put on ourselves is going to be within our program,” the St. Joseph’s Prep graduate said. “We don’t really use a lot of outside things as motivation. It’s not what we do. Any pressure that we feel is coming from us and

it’s not really pressure, it’s just a belief that we can be really good.” One-half of the program’s 10 seniors this season line up on the defensive side of the football – Reid, linebackers Cam Brown and Jan Johnson, tackle Robert Windsor and safety Garrett Taylor. Two members of the defensive end rotation – Shaka Toney (Imhotep Charter) and Shane Simmons – are fourth-year juniors, with true junior Yetur Gross-Matos a returning AllBig Ten player. “We’ve had a lot of honest conversations with each other and we all really set a standard for who and what we want to be this year,” Toney said. “We’re not envious of each other at all, so it doesn’t matter if one guy gets the sack. It more motivates you that I need to go get the sack, or this guy made a great play, I need to make a great play.” Head coach James Franklin also has been pleased with the depth at linebacker and in the secondary. Sophomore Micah Parsons, who led the team in tackles last season despite starting just one game, and Johnson will lead a deep and talented linebacker unit. ‘I think we’ve got a chance to be really good,” Franklin said. “I think we’re as good as any place I’ve ever been at defensive end right now. I think we’re as good as we’ve been See FOOTBALL B6

THIS WEEK: It’s off to the “Track Too Tough to Tame” for the 25th of 36 races on the season after the final off week. ... Darlington Raceway is famous for its “stripes,” when cars hit the wall and leave streaks along it, for its unique egglike shape and its hard racing that often leaves drivers frustrated. ... This is also a “throwback weekend” when many of the cars will sport paint schemes reminiscent of ones in the past. ...

Two races a season were held from 1960-2005, with one traditionally on Labor Day weekend. ... Brad Keselowski won the race last season. ... With only two potential new winners on the season before the playoffs begin to add to the nine different winners already, the next five spots look all but secure, but the final two of the 16 should come down to four drivers: Ryan Newman, Daniel Suarez, Clint Bowyer and Jimmie Johnson.

Ravens believe they ‘have something special’ in Lamar Jackson Jonas Shaffer The Baltimore Sun

BALTIMORE — David Culley joined the Ravens’ coaching staff in January for two reasons. One, he said, was to reunite with head coach John Harbaugh, whom he worked with for a decade on Andy Reid’s Philadelphia Eagles staff. The other was to coach Lamar Jackson. “He’s a franchise-type quarterback, and you always want to be able to be a part of something special there,” Culley, the Ravens’ wide receivers coach and passing coordinator, said after a mid-August training camp practice. “I think we have something special going here.” That’s the feeling swirling around Owings Mills, where Jackson has looked more and more like a veteran leader and less like the 21-year-old rookie he was last season. For a team in both transition and contention, that’s the development that was always necessary. If the Ravens’ run to their first AFC North title since 2012 made clear that Jackson would remain the team’s quarterback, not former Super Bowl Most Valuable Player and longtime starter Joe Flacco, the grim reality of their playoff exit showed how far he still had to go. With the Ravens’ vaunted running game held in check by the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, Jackson entered halftime of their AFC wild-cardround game 2-for-8 for 17 passing yards and an interception. After the 23-17 loss, in which the Ravens trailed by as many as 20 points early in the fourth quarter, Jackson acknowledged his shortcomings. “I didn’t play my game at all,” he said. “Only towards the end,” when his lategame passing gave the Ravens a faint chance. “There are a lot of things I need to work on.” And so he has, with still more room to grow. No one who’s watched him progress through organized team activities, mandatory minicamp, training camp and the preseason slate would confuse him for a superstar. He is a second-year player with just seven starts on his resume. There’s the occasional misread of the defense. His deep balls tend to wobble every now and then. But last season, the list of warts was longer. Much longer. Now, Jackson’s coaches have said, he commands the offense in the huddle and at the line of scrimmage, handling play calls and protections with confidence. His mechanics have improved, and with them his accuracy. (Even the short-range sidearm throws Jackson attempts don’t miss often.) He’s thrown better to the sideline, where he struggled last season. Maybe most important, he seems to trust himself and his receivers more, winding up before they’re even out of their breaks. “He’s been great,” tight end Mark Andrews, his top target throughout training camp, said after one practice. “I think he gets pegged as a guy who can’t throw the ball and all of that, but you come out to practice, and that’s all we do. That’s all we’re doing, is throwing the ball. He puts the ball in incredible spots, and he’s such a dynamic player. He has that special ‘it’ factor about him, and again, he’s special, and there’s really no other word to describe him. He’s incredible.” Jackson’s first two months as a starting NFL quarterback left him with a low bar to clear entering 2019. While he finished with twice as many touchdown passes (six) as interceptions (three), Jackson completed just 58.2% of his passes, among the lowest rates in the league. He passed for as few as 125 yards (in a win) and surpassed 200 yards just once (also in a win). Analytically, Jackson was no darling. According to Football Outsiders’ efficiency ratings, he was somewhere between the Tennessee Titans’ Marcus Mariota and Denver Broncos’ Case Keenum as a passer — and definitely behind Flacco. Pro Football Focus rated him the 31stbest quarterback in the NFL,

worse than even the New York Giants’ Eli Manning and former Jacksonville Jaguar Blake Bortles. Neither came close to the playoffs last season. (But then, neither had the Ravens’ topranked defense, either.) “You guys seen me last year. You guys know. I was horrible,” Jackson said. Where he thrived was as a rusher. While Jackson struggled with ball security, he finished the season with 695 rushing yards, second most on the team, and 4.7 yards per carry. His 147 carries were the most ever in a single season by a quarterback, and the times when he faked as if he would run sprung open holes for other players. All of which led some critics to disparagingly suggest that Jackson play running back, not quarterback. “There is negativity all over the place, but I think as players, we know what we’re capable of,” tight end Hayden Hurst said. “What I’m seeing out there, that’s not a running back. He’s

an incredible quarterback. He makes really good decisions. He makes some really impressive throws. I’m just happy to see how he progresses moving forward.” While the 6-foot-2 Jackson tended to his game and his frame in the offseason — he said he’s added 7 to 10 pounds of muscle since January — general manger Eric DeCosta and the Ravens front office did what they could to give him a talented enough supporting cast. In free agency, they signed two-time Pro Bowl running back Mark Ingram II, whose receiving know-how and blocking ability might be just as important as his hard-charging rushing style. In the draft, they used two of their top three picks on wide receivers: Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, one of the draft’s fastest players, and Miles Boykin, an athletic, more physical target. Elsewhere, they secured the return of All-Pro guard Marshal Yanda, who will again spearhead what could be a top-10

offensive line. “It’s a challenge for a team to face speed when you have multiple guys on the field at the same time who can run and make explosive plays,” DeCosta said in April, after the Ravens had added running back Justice Hill and quarterback Trace McSorley, among the draft’s fastest players at their respective positions. “We got a chance to see what Lamar can do this past year, and I think our vision, collective vision, for the offense is to add more guys like that to make it really challenging on the defense.” The Ravens’ offensive playbook is, for now, something of a mystery box. After Greg Roman, the architect of the team’s running game, was promoted to offensive coordinator in January, the coaching staff set about tearing down the offense. It could no longer cater to Flacco, who would soon be traded to the Denver Broncos. It had to amplify the strengths and minimize the weaknesses of Jackson.

Carli Lloyd is right: ‘There is no reason why a woman could not’ be an NFL kicker Sarah Valenzuela New York Daily News

“There is no reason why a woman could not do this.” But the NFL needs to do it right. As a two-time World Cup champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist, professional soccer powerhouse Carli Lloyd has always thrived under bright lights, thousands of screaming fans, and the pressure to win it all. So when she kicked a 55-yard field goal after a joint Eagles-Ravens practice on Aug. 20, let’s be honest, it was light-work. Her viral video prompted calls from multiple NFL teams, including one that invited the USWNT star to play in their final preseason game. But if we’re going to make these kinds of strides in the landscape of leveling the playing field for women, do it justice. So let’s start from the top: First of all, Lloyd has no plans to enter the NFL, at least not just yet. But she is giving 2020 serious thought, her long-time coach and trainer James Galanis told ESPN. Check out her resume and you will realize she deserves an opportunity. The 37-year-old has made her career out of, well, kicking. Kicking with accuracy through a goal post? That’s just having fun on any given day after soccer practice or in her backyard. “I could kick field goals all day long. I absolutely love it,” Lloyd told NBS Sports’ Peter King in an interview posted to King’s “Football Morning in America” column. “I love kicking long balls in soccer, and it carries over to football. The technique is the same, and I think I’m very accurate.” The fact it’s taken a heavily decorated member of a world championship squad to start the conversation on whether women should be allowed to try out as an NFL kicker, is a sad testament to the patriarch-driven sports

world, especially the NFL, but what else is new. What’s left to be said is when that “pivotal moment,” as Lloyd described, will happen. Any opportunity Lloyd, or any other woman (several have kicked at the collegiate level), has received or will receive in the future, has to be the real deal. Not some publicity stunt in a single preseason game. If it’s not going to be done the right way, don’t do it at all. Give her a full offseason of training, complete with workouts at both voluntary and mandatory OTAs and all the preseason games. Not an invitation to watch practice and have some fun

kicking field goals for whoever wants to watch. Give them the chance to actually do it right, just like you would any other man trying to earn a roster spot. Even Lloyd said she knew she could “do it and do it well.” Of course there’s the added risk of Lloyd and other women staring down your average 300-plus pound lineman, but really that’s a risk that needs to be taken as long as you’re willing. There’s no telling unless you try, but also, let’s go back to training and proper preparation. Again, if you’re going to open the door, do it right. It’s something Lloyd has obviously thought of as well:

“Big thing would be getting used to the big boys out there. But nothing scares me. You hold yourself back if you’re afraid,” Lloyd said. “What’s the worst that can happen? I don’t make the team? Let’s just say I did try. Maybe I change the landscape a lot.” Lloyd once scored a hat trick in the biggest game of her life, so there’s absolutely no reason why she couldn’t “put on the helmet, strap on the pads, go for it.” The only thing that’s kept women from playing professional football are the men who say they can’t and would rather eat dirt before they made such a

move. It’s why the question, after thousands watched the clip, switched from “can she do it?” to “well, can she handle the pressure?” It’s redundant. She’s literally thrived at the highest level of sports competition. She won, not just in the name of one team playing for one city, but in the name of the United States of America. If you really want to talk about kickers handling pressure, might I remind you of kickers past and present who’ve cost their teams playoff games — like the Jets’ Doug Brien in ‘05 against the Steelers (twice!) or the Seahawks’ Blair Walsh in ‘16 against the Vikings — or worse even, a Super Bowl title — like the Bills’ Scott Norwood in 1991 against the Giants. And of course, Cody Parker’s infamous “double doink” miss for the Bears in January. It’s 2019 and at this point it’s oldschool thinking for the naysayers who doubt women can put points on a scoreboard for an NFL team, but being a kicker is just scratching the surface. How many kickers can you name outside of the team you root for? Sorry not sorry, but kickers just aren’t as widely regarded in the public eye until they miss, then they’re a topic of scrutiny. You can name quarterbacks, wide receivers, running backs, even some linesman, but kickers? Yes, opening the door for women to be kickers in the NFL is a big step towards breaking the gender barriers in sport and in professional football. But what about the ones who want to be and deserve the chance to be more? There’s more to be said in the larger conversation but for now, opening these doors will continue to be important until there are no more doors to open. “If I was a little girl watching and I saw an NFL kicker that was a female, that would be cool,” Lloyd said.

Alabama’s Dylan Moses needs knee surgery Field Level Media

Alabama linebacker Dylan Moses tore an anterior cruciate ligament in practice Tuesday and will miss the 2019 season, AL.com reported Wednesday. Head coach Nick Saban said on the SEC media teleconference that Moses needs knee surgery and is out “indefinitely.” The 6-foot-3, 235-pound junior led the Crimson Tide with 86 tackles in 15 games last season, including 10 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks. Moses was a finalist for the Butkus Award in 2018 and made the All-SEC second team, selected by the conference’s coaches. –As Hurricane Dorian continues to grow, so do fears that the neutral-site game between Boise State and Florida State in Jacksonville on Saturday may not be played. City of Jacksonville spokesperson Nikki

Kimbleton told WTXL in Tallahassee that a decision on whether the game will be played will be made around 10 a.m. ET on Thursday. Dorian was a Category 1 storm on Wednesday, but projections have it strengthening and possibly reaching the Category 3 level by the weekend. –Tennessee junior offensive lineman Trey Smith, who experienced two battles with blood clots last year, has been cleared by doctors to play in Saturday’s season opener against Georgia State. Smith initially was diagnosed with blood clots in his lungs in February 2018. He was cleared to play last season, but his campaign was cut short after seven games when he had a recurrence. The 6-foot-6, 325-pound Smith and his family discussed the situation with specialists and doctors over the past several months in search

of a solution. –Iowa receiver Oliver Martin has been ruled immediately eligible to play in the 2019 season. Martin transferred from Michigan earlier this summer, and both the NCAA and Big Ten recently cleared him to play. Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said he expects Martin to see action during Saturday’s season opener against Miami (Ohio). –North Carolina freshman cornerback Cam’Ron Kelly was ruled eligible to play this season by the NCAA. Kelly initially chose Auburn during the recruiting process but decided in April to transfer to North Carolina to be closer to home, citing family health problems. Kelly is from Chesapeake, Va. The Tar Heels applied for a waiver so Kelly wouldn’t have to sit out the 2019 campaign

due to transfer regulations. –Georgia Tech defensive back Myles Sims was ruled immediately eligible to play this season by the NCAA. Defensive lineman Antonneous Clayton wasn’t as fortunate, as his bid to play this season was denied. Sims, a transfer from Michigan, will be eligible to play in Thursday’s season opener against Clemson. He redshirted last season at Michigan and has four seasons of eligibility remaining. –Nebraska indefinitely suspended wide receiver Andre Hunt and tight end Katerian Legrone. Offensive coordinator Troy Walters announced the suspensions of the two redshirt freshmen but provided no specific reasons. The No. 24 Cornhuskers open the season Saturday at home against South Alabama.

Atlanta in ‘very good position’ to host World Cup, but cost will be high By Tim Tucker The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (TNS)

ATLANTA — The chief organizer of the bid that secured the 2026 World Cup for North America offered an encouraging assessment Wednesday of Atlanta’s chances of hosting key parts of the event — and a sobering assessment of the costs of doing so. John Kristick, who was executive director of the joint bid committee for the United States, Mexico and Canada, spoke during a day-long sports business conference at SunTrust Park. “I think Atlanta is in a very

since we’ve been here at linebacker. I think we’re as good as we’ve been at corner.” In the secondary, Reid and Taylor are the leaders. Taylor is part of a four-man group at safety where co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach Tim Banks said he’s confident

good position (to host World Cup matches),” Kristick said. “Your fundamentals are good. There are other cities ... who can consider themselves more underdogs. I don’t think sitting here today Atlanta should see themselves as an underdog. They just have to be really smart in their approach.” Kristick noted that the North American bid recommended Atlanta and Dallas as potential hosts of one World Cup semifinal each, plus five or six earlier matches during the event. Atlanta and Dallas also were suggested in the bid as options to host the event’s

international broadcast center. Those recommendations aren’t binding on FIFA, soccer’s global governing body, which is expected to finalize the U.S. site choices for 2026 by late next year or early 2021. As for the expected host city costs, Kristick estimated those in a hefty range of $30 million to $80 million, depending on the number and level of games hosted and the expensiveness of a particular city. By comparison, the Atlanta host committee’s budget for Super Bowl LIII pegged the local cost of that event at $46 million.

Kristick’s estimate of World Cup costs included $16 million to $42 million per host city for safety and security, $12 million to $20 million per city for traffic and transportation, $2 million to $4 million per city for marketing and beautification and $1.5 million per city for a fan festival. A portion of the Atlanta hotel-motel tax designated for bringing major events to the city covered $16 million of the cost of hosting the Super Bowl in February and will cover $8.5 million of the cost of hosting next year’s Final Four. To host the World Cup and other

major sports events in the future, local sports and tourism officials hope to secure an additional public funding source. “The challenge moving ahead is that costs are continuing to rise,” Atlanta Convention and Visitors Bureau president and CEO William Pate said at Wednesday’s event, hosted by the Metro Atlanta Chamber and the Atlanta Sports Council. “We need a companion financial piece to work with the (hotel-motel tax) so we can fund these opportunities.” That issue is expected to

come up in next year’s session of the Georgia Legislature. Sports Council president Dan Corso said the combination of the hotel-motel tax and the business community “has done us very well” in funding past events, but “in the case of the World Cup and beyond we’re going to need an additional source, either new or expanded.” While Kristick cited $80 million as the high end of a city’s cost range, Corso said he’d heard it might be $50 million in Atlanta, “which would put it kind of on par with the Super Bowl.”

playing any of the quartet at any time. Banks loves the speed and size of the defense, joking that “I don’t think anyone will look much better than we do getting off the bus as it relates to our front seven.” “I think we’re fast,” he said. “I love our front, they’re extremely athletic and they run hard. Our edge guys are tremendous. You look at our linebackers, I think our length is great. So I think we have a

great combination of speed and size. I think on the back edge, we have a unique blend of experience and speed and some youth that really has a chance to be scary.” That also holds true for the youth on the offensive side. Redshirt sophomore KJ Hamler could break a big play at any moment as a wide receiver or kick returner. A pair of sophomores, tight end Pat Freiermuth and running back Ricky Slade, combined to

score 14 touchdowns last season. Slade tallied six backing up Miles Sanders. Of course, the main question is the quarterback position, where Trace McSorley excelled for three years. Sean Clifford threw seven passes in four appearances last season while Will Levis did not see any action. The starter will be able to ease into action in the opener against Idaho, an FCS team. The Nittany Lions will begin

with three non-conference games at home and then have a week off before entering Big Ten play at Maryland. Franklin said he feels good about what he has seen in camp, and hopes that some practices and scrimmages in Beaver Stadium will get his young players used to the enormity of that and other venues where they’ll be playing. “I think our chemistry is really good,” he said. “I think our cohesion from player to

player, from player to staff, is really good, a lot of good things. Obviously you never truly know until you get into that stadium and play. So we’ll see. But I feel really good right now. “A good percentage of our guys are so much more experienced, are so much stronger, are so much more ready to play this year. So I think obviously that’s going to be meaningful for us.”

Ex-wife offers to pay child support she owes to kids My husband and I have been married for 16 years. His ex was supposed to pay child support, but didn’t. He worked in his career for only one year after we married and since then has held menial jobs, which have kept his future retirement intact. I have provided him and his children a home for which he has never DEAR ABBY made a mortgage payment or taxes, utilities, clothes, etc. His children have never lacked for anything. His ex now wants to resolve the back child support issue by giving the settlement amount of money to the kids. I don’t feel they should get it because it is owed to HIM. I’d like to see him use it to pay off some of his credit card bills, which are high. She has told the kids what she is offering and plans to guilt him into giving it to them. He doesn’t have to settle that way if he chooses. He doesn’t know that I saw the letter, and he’s lying about the amount she’s willing to pay. What should I do? Present Mrs.

After having supported your husband and his children all these years, the LEAST you are owed is honesty. What you should do is discuss this with an attorney of your own immediately and, while you are at it, raise the subject of what is and is not considered community property in your state. You should also determine to what extent you might be responsible for paying those high credit card balances should he renege. Once you have the answers, you will be better able to

determine how to handle this. Ten years ago, I was a guest at the home of my friend “Roger” for a five-day holiday celebration. We’ve shared this event with family and friends for years. I was the only non-family member out of the five adults and two teenagers staying at his home. The guest room assigned to me shared Roger’s master bathroom, which I used. During my visit, Roger’s prescription medicine came up missing. I heard about it from a mutual friend a day after I returned home. This friend told me Roger was adamant that I took his medication and there was no need to question anyone else. Roger would not accept my calls. To add insult to injury, the so-called mutual friend agrees with Roger that I was the culprit! So, I have lost two friends. How do I let go and move on? Time hasn’t healed THESE wounds. Accused In Ohio Roger should have confronted you when his medication turned up missing. That he accused you behind your back to someone makes me wonder how good a friend he really was. As to the mutual friend who contacted you the next day, be grateful. It is my experience that we can do what we set our minds to. Start celebrating this holiday by involving yourself in travel or other activities you enjoy, and spend time with other people so you won’t be alone.

Lifestyle changes can benefit heart health of almost everyone I’m a 70-year-old female who had a stress test, echocardiogram and carotid study. I passed all tests. My cholesterol is 173, with my HDL 56, LDL 95.6 and triglycerides 108. My TO YOUR blood pressure is 110/64. The GOOD HEALTH cardiologist put me on 5 mg of Crestor. He feels this will help my numbers. He also has me taking CoQ10 and vitamin D3 in case my legs start aching from the Crestor. I’ve been taking everything now for two weeks, and my legs are starting to ache. Is it really necessary to stay on Crestor?

DR. KEITH ROACH

I put all your numbers into the standard risk calculator at www.cvriskcalculator.com, and your risk for heart disease or stroke in the next 10 years is 6.8%. That is in a range where medication therapy is not usually recommended. Of course, I can’t tell you to stop taking the medication your doctor has recommended. He may know something about you that I don’t. It’s possible you have a less-common risk factor your cardiologist may not have told you about. Some people with very good cholesterol and blood pressure numbers have high levels of Creactive protein, for example, which confers an increased risk for heart disease. That’s true even in people with desirable cholesterol levels, and people in that situation would clearly benefit from taking Crestor or a similar medicine. All of these medicines have the risk of muscle aches, although the risk of serious muscle damage is very small. Nearly everyone can reduce their heart disease risk by having a diet with very little meat but

high in vegetables, legumes and nuts, along with whole grains and fruits. Regular moderate exercise is as important as diet. Keeping stress levels low, having good close relationships and sleeping 7-8 hours daily are underappreciated beneficial factors to reduce heart risk as well. When is the best time of day to take things like fish oil, vitamin D3 and calcium supplements? There is moderately strong evidence that fish, or fish oils, may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. One or two servings a week of oily fish provides about as much benefit as more. For people who don’t want to eat fish but want the benefit, a fish oil supplement daily (of about 1 gram) provides some of the benefit. I recommend taking it with meals to minimize the side effect of “fish burp” and to maximize absorption. Vitamin D, given to people at risk for deficiency or with proven deficiency, also should be given with meals to improve absorption. Vitamin D is also needed for some people with inability to absorb vitamins properly. I recommend once-daily dosing with the largest meal of the day. I seldom prescribe calcium supplements anymore. Recent data suggest that vitamin D and calcium together actually increased stroke risk. While vitamin D is important for bone health and is very difficult to get through food, calcium should be consumed as food, not as supplements. In addition to dairy products, many seeds, legumes, almonds and sardines are excellent calcium sources.

Horoscope By Stella Wilder Born today, you are one of the most positive individuals born under your sign; you see everyone and everything in the best possible light, and your faith in your fellow human beings is deep. Of course, this may lead to disappointment now and then, when those around you cannot live up to your at times too lofty expectations — but not only do you see the best in others, you are also quick to forgive transgressions and to restore the transgressors to your esteem. Courteous, constant and always meaning well, you are the kind of person that other people want to be — though there are few who can match you for your easygoing manner and optimistic outlook. There is rarely a party scheduled to which you are not invited; people like to be around you as much as possible! Also born on this date are: Cameron Diaz, actress; Warren Buffett, entrepreneur; Ted Williams, baseball player; Andy Roddick, tennis player; Mary Shelley, author; Peggy Lipton, actress; Fred MacMurray, actor; Shirley Booth, actress. To see what is in store for you tomorrow, find your birthday and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide. SATURDAY, AUGUST 31 VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You may feel as though you’ve been through the wringer recently, but today you’ll be back in fine form, doing what only you know how to do. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Use your resources wisely today, and don’t simply throw all you have at any problem that arises. Conservation sets the tone for others, too. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — An earlier start than usual ensures that you get where you’re going

by day’s end. There may be unexpected stops you must make along the way. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Contact with someone who has been avoiding you lately isn’t as uncomfortable as expected; you’ll be the first to let bygones be bygones. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Share what you have with those around you, and you’ll not come up short when you find yourself in need. What goes around comes around, surely. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — The approach you take matters today; you mustn’t just do whatever you wish and expect things to come out to your liking. Make a plan! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) — You may find that your ideas do not hold up as well to scrutiny as someone else’s — but this can be a good thing, as you review your methods. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — You can learn much from someone who was learning from you only a short time ago. Only the best teachers learn from their students! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You may end up partnering today with someone you would have avoided only yesterday. The truth is that together you can overcome many obstacles. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — It’s important for you to work from a list today and tend to things in the proper order. A “willy-nilly” approach will not amount to much. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Get together with someone younger and less experienced than you and you’ll be able to revive your own enthusiasm for a certain endeavor. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You’ll want to focus on activities that yield results quickly; you’re in no mood to wait for signs of progress! Others offer valid options.
