Established in 1980 as what was then known as The Dunkirk Humane Society, the organization has grown over time and now services a wide geographical area that includes the entire northern end of Chautauqua County. Donations and grants help support the majority of their spaying and neutering assistance program, veterinary bills and other operating costs. Located at 431 East Chestnut Street in Dunkirk, the Lakeshore Humane Society’s adoption center requires anyone adopting an animal to sign a contract that details the specific standards of care for their pet, with the expectation that a donation will be made at the time of adoption.

This week we are featuring “Flower” and “Diamond”. Flower is a sweet little two-year-old cat that loves to play. She gets along with other cats and would be fine in just about any home. You can see her in our Cat Colony room. Diamond is a nine-year-old Shih Tzu mix. He came to the shelter after his owner passed away. He is a nice boy that really doesn’t understand what happened and is in need of a new best friend. If you have a space in your life for either of these pets, stop in at the Strunk Road Adoption Center to meet them. All they need is a 2nd chance.

Vaccines will involve some discomfort and may cause pain, redness, or tenderness at the site of injection, but this is minimal compared to the pain, discomfort, and trauma of the diseases these vaccines prevent. Serious side effects following vaccination, such as severe allergic reaction, are very rare. The disease-prevention benefits of getting vaccines are much greater than the possible side effects for almost all children. Immunization protects others you care about. Children in the U.S. still
get vaccine-preventable diseases. In fact, we have seen resurgences of measles and whooping cough (pertussis) over the past few years. For example, more than 48,000 cases of whooping cough were reported in the U. S. in 2012. During this time, 20 deaths were reported—the majority of these deaths were in children younger than 3 months of age. Unfortunately, some babies are too young to be completely vaccinated and some people may not be able to receive certain vaccinations due to severe allergies, weakened immune systems from conditions
like leukemia, or other reasons. To help keep them safe, it is important that you and your children who are able to get vaccinated are fully immunized. This not only protects your family, but also helps prevent the spread of these diseases to your friends and loved ones. Immunizations can save your family time and money. A child with a vaccine-preventable disease can be denied attendance at schools or daycare facilities. Some vaccine-preventable diseases can result in prolonged disabilities and can take a financial
SELLINg ‘STuff’ TO AID THE ANIMALS, CONTINuED fROM PAgE 1 Because it is an allvolunteer organization, the Lakeshore Humane Society’s adoption center’s hours of operation are by appointment only. As always, the organization is seeking new members who have a passion for bettering the welfare of animals. Anyone interested in helping animal orphans fi nd new homes can speak to any of the volunteers who will be at the yard sale this weekend. Volunteers serve in a number of different capacities,
including helping to answer, screen and return telephone calls, work at fundraising events, provide daily care for the animals and transport animals to and from veterinary appointments. Because many of the animals that are cared for at their facility are in poor health, frequent veterinarian visits need to be made, especially for animals who require special medication and have to undergo surgical procedures. The cost of keeping the
Lakeshore Humane Society functioning continues to rise, with the estimated cost to prepare a cat or a kitten for adoption around $350, while the cost to prepare a dog or puppy for adoption closer to $450. While hundreds of items that will be available for purchase this weekend have been collected over the past few weeks, anyone interested in dropping off potential sale items are asked to call (716) 672-1991. Organizers ask that potential donations
not include any of the following: large appliances, metal bed springs, magazines, encyclopedias, clothing and any type of electronics, which includes televisions, computer monitors, computer towers and any type of printers.

In contrast, getting vaccinated against these diseases is a good investment and usually covered by insurance or the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program, which is a federally funded program that provides vaccines at no cost to children from low-income families. To find out more about the VFC program, ask your child’s health care professional or contact the Chautauqua County Department of Health and Human Services at 1-866-604-6789. ContinueD on PAge 6

done around here. Let's just say that if time permitted, we could focus on this particular subject for at least a year. However, that is not the case with two toddler boys. But, once they learn to hold a paintbrush and color inside the lines... Boy, are they in for it! For now, I'll stick to naptime projects. One of my most recent naptime projects was painting our mailbox. It wasn't in horrible shape, but it always astounds
me to see what a fresh coat of paint can do. If you have a metal mailbox, you can go right ahead and spray paint it or use a good old-fashioned paintbrush. Personally, I am a paintbrush person and probably always will be. Whether you pick a bright accent color or a neutral, a change will make your whole front yard look happier.

If you want to go the next step further with this idea, you can also plant flowers around your mailbox, and if your mailbox is on a wooden post, I'm sure that would love a fresh coat of paint too! I painted our mailbox a crisp white, along with the post and planted Gerbera daisies at the base of it. Even a plain color like white can
make a huge difference. Every time I pull in my driveway, it makes me smile now. Did I mention how budget friendly this project is? Our total cost was probably $10. Hope this inspired you! Chautauqua County could use some more pretty mailboxes. As lways, thank you for reading, and happy mailbox improvements!

National Immunization Awareness Month, continued from page 4 Immunization protects future generations. Vaccines have reduced and, in some cases, eliminated many diseases that killed or severely disabled people just a few generations ago. For example, smallpox vaccination eradicated that
disease worldwide. Your children don’t have to get smallpox shots anymore because the disease no longer exists. By vaccinating children against rubella (German measles), the risk that pregnant women will pass this virus on to
their fetus or newborn has been dramatically decreased, and birth defects associated with that virus rarely are seen in the U. S. If we continue vaccinating now, and vaccinating completely, parents in the future may be
able to trust that some diseases of today will no longer be around to harm their children in the future. For more information about the importance of infant immunization, visit http://www.cdc. gov/vaccines.

Final auditions for Jamestown Community College’s production of Les Miserables will be held August 27 and 28. The auditions, which begin at 7 p.m. in Scharmann Theatre on JCC’s Jamestown Campus, are open to students and community members. Those auditioning must prepare a song that will demonstrate vocal range and acting ability. The song does not need to be from the show, but it should be memorized and show emotion and finesse. The best singers will be invited back for final auditions in August to vie for the lead roles. Rehearsals for Les Miserables, which begin after Labor Day, will be held from 7-10 p.m. Monday through Friday. Performances will be held November 7-9, 14-16, and 21-22. A large chorus, technical crew, and costuming assistants are also needed for the production. Set in early 19th century France, Les Miserables is the story of Jean Valjean, a French peasant, and his quest for redemption after serving 19 years in jail for having stolen a loaf of bread for his starving sister's child. Valjean decides to break his parole after a kindly bishop inspires him by a tremendous act of mercy, but he is relentlessly pursued by a police inspector named Javert. Along the way, Valjean and a slew of characters are swept into a revolutionary period in France. In its original 1987 Broadway production, Les Miserables ran for 6,680 performances and won eight Tony awards, including Best Musical. The production, considered a modern day opera, features the songs “I Dreamed a Dream,” “Who Am I?” “Castle on a Cloud,” “Master of the House,” “Red and Black,” “Do You Hear the People Sing?,” “In My Life,” “On My Own,” “A Little Fall of Rain,” “Drink With Me,” “Bring Him Home,” and “Empty Chairs at Empty Tables.” For more information about the audition process or technical needs, contact director Bob Schlick at 338.1153. Individuals interested in set building or providing backstage assistance during the run of the show should call Scott Barton at 338.1166

You can imagine just how difficult it would be to know God if His nature was not recorded in the Bible for us to follow. Job could not follow the Bible. You want to be sure not to build doctrine on Job's statements unless they are substantiated by the New Testament. However, Job did much better without the Bible than many of us do with the Bible.

the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written A BOOK." Notice that Job called God his adversary. Is God our adversary? No. The Bible is clear that Satan is our adversary. (1 Peter 5:8) God is the one who sacrif iced His Son so sinners, His enemies, could be saved from eternal punishment. Your adversary would not do that. Again, Job was innocent because he didn't know any better. Notice what Job is crying out for, a BOOK written by God! Job was crying out for the Bible! A more modern translation would read "an indictment". Job wanted to know the standards for right and wrong. He was having a diff icult time understanding God without the scriptures. Look at what Job says in the next two verses, Job 31:36-37, "Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me. I would declare unto Him the number of my steps; as a prince I would go near unto Him." Job

said he would take God's book, wear it like a crown, and go closer to God! Job's heart was just to know God more. He wouldn't let the Bible sit for one day without indulging and feeding upon its precious contents. Yet some of us are spiritually starving ourselves by disregarding God's book. Job also said something amazing in Job 9:32-33, "For He is not a man as I am that I should answer Him, and we should COME TOGETHER in judgment. Neither is there any daysman (mediator) between us that might lay his hand upon us both." Job is now crying out for someone to bring him and God together. That's what Jesus Christ did! Jesus is all God so He can place His hand on the Almighty Father and yet at the same time Jesus is all man that He can put His hand on humanity and bring the two sides together! Jesus is that mediator that Job is looking for. He washed mankind from our sin so we could be back in right standing with God. Are you in right standing with God? If not call on the Name of the only mediator there is, Jesus Christ, and ask Him to wash your sins and bring you back to God.

Cars also have a destination charge that's included on the window sticker but is sometimes left out of prices you see advertised online. Our advice: Don't forget these fees when planning your budget. If you're not looking to spend more than $30,000 for a car, for instance, it's probably not a good idea to choose a vehicle that costs $29,995 unless you can negotiate the price down substantially so that it'll fit in your budget after taxes.

Eben Alexander, Wednesday’s lecturer, is a renowned academic neurosurgeon who spent more than three decades honing his scientific worldview, thinking he knew how the brain and mind worked. A transcendental Near-Death Experience (NDE), in which he was driven to the brink of death and spent a week deep in coma from an inexplicable brain infection, changed all of that. The best-selling book Proof of Heaven is the result of his experience, a scientist’s case for the afterlife. Thursday’s lecturer is Hussein Rashid, a contingent faculty member, most often affi liated with Hofstra

He also teaches Islamic bioethics, dealing with the question of when life begins and ends. Rabbi Samuel M. Stahl will bring the week to a close on Friday. Stahl became rabbi emeritus of Temple Beth-El, in San Antonio, Texas, in 2002, after serving for 26 years as its senior rabbi. Previously, he was a chaplain in the United States Army and the rabbi of Temple B’nai Israel (The Henry Cohen Memorial) in Galveston, Texas. A native of Sharon, Pennsylvania, Stahl graduated from the University of Pittsburgh, and ordained a rabbi at Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati in 1967. He has served on a number of organizational boards in the Jewish and general communities, both on
the local and national levels.

Falconer Chautauqua County has so many great places to see and things to do. Each city, village and town has a story, and we’ve set out to tell that story. We’ll go through the county, place by place, for the next few months. Check back every week for the next edition of “This Great County”.
By Matt Wisniewski Contributing Writer
Falconer, New York is located in the southern tier of Chautauqua County, directly east of Jamestown. While Falconer is considerably smaller than Jamestown (less than one tenth of the size,) Falconer holds its own as a community that is literally attached to a much bigger one. Falconer was never called "The Furniture Capital of the World" (what many used to refer to Jamestown as,) but it has been consistently carving out its own identity and community for over 200 years. And their furniture isn't bad either. Purchased from the Holland Land Company in 1807, the town was originally called Worksburg, until Robert Falconer purchased the land, and renamed it in 1874. Falconer was officially incorporated as a village in 1891. By then, many things

in the town were well established, including a railroad that ran through the center of town and a slew of prominent businesses. Fancher Chair Company, which excels today at producing a number
of different chair designs and distributing them throughout the country, has a rich history in Falconer. The building has long been used for production, and started churning out bee-keeping supplies in the mid eigh-
teen-hundreds. The building and company went through many evolutions in management until they were eventually producing kitchen tables and chairs in the middle of the 20th century.
Today, Fancher Chair Company is a competitive company that offers state-of-the-art machinery as well as fi nishing touches by human hands. Fancher Chair Company is just one example of the how Falconer's history
is undeniably bound to their businesses. Another example would be the Falconer Public Library. Founded in 1910, the library was formed when each member of the "Society of the Hall in the Grove,”donated one book that they thought was essential, as well as one dollar. From there, donations were solicited from the public. It is fair to say that no one at that time could have predicted the success the library would have, being named one of America's Star Libraries by The Library Journal in 2013. However, the jump from 1910 to 2013 was not a simple one. Nowadays, information storage is primarily done digitally. This has caused many to wonder how libraries will progress into the 21st century. Libraries around the country are closing in light of this evolution. Falconer Public Library is flourishing. ContinueD on PAge 22

THIS gREAT COuNTy: fALCONER, CONTINuED fROM PAgE 22 "Summertime is a busy time for the Falconer Public Library," says Sue Seamans (Library Director.) "We have a number of different types of events going on." Their ability to throw events is just one of the things that prevents Falconer Public Library from being an establishment full of
hard-cover books, collecting dust. Their work often jumps out of the physical building and into the community. "One of the biggest things we have going on is annual outdoor concert series at Davis Park," says Seamans. "Every Thursday in July we book music in the park as a way for
people in the town to bring a lawn chair, come and relax." But the library's community involvement doesn't begin and end with a concert series. Throughout the year, the Falconer Public Library offers educational classes, displays that highlight local quilters, a story-hour program
for preschoolers, reading clubs and many more worthy activities. Not to mention they just fi nished "Going Live," which will shoot them into the 21st century of cataloging. This process has made them part of a broader network of libraries, which makes browsing their materials an
activity that anyone in the general public can do from the comfort of their own home. Falconer is not just an extension of Jamestown. They have their own businesses and their own sense of pride for the work they do. The town is also marked by their ability to keep up with modern demands
and modern technology. Several of their businesses existed at a time when Falconer was a different city entirely. And perhaps this is the most impressive quality that the town possesses: Their ability to keep one foot firmly rooted in the past, while still moving in a progressive direction.

fISHINg ADVISORy bOARDS HIgHLIgHT IMPORTANCE Of fISHINg INDuSTRy By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
The Chadwick Bay Marina was buzzing with excitement early Wednesday morning for the 5th Annual Lake Erie Experience. The event brings together people from the local governments, communities and media to highlight the importance of the charter fishing industry on Lake Erie. The day was made possible through the combined efforts of the Eastern Lake Erie Charter Boat Association along with the Chautauqua County and Erie County Fishing Advisory Boards. “It’s a largely untapped resource,” event organizer Zen Olow said of Lake Erie. “There’s a lot of revenue that comes in because of the charters and the people that come in to enjoy our fishing. We still don’t feel like it’s fully utilized.” The attendees were treated to a morning of fishing out on Lake Erie aboard one of a number of charter boats. The weather cooperated, though storms loomed both towards Buffalo and towards Barcelona. Among the first-time participants in the event was Erie County Commissioner of Parks, Troy Schinzel. “I think it’s necessary,” Schinzel said of the event. “I think it’s a great idea.

It’s fantasy football Season
By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
For a casual football fan, the fantasy football season is often far more exciting than the actual National Football League. Meeting up with your league for your draft can be an absolute riot. Personally, I love fantasy football, though it doesn’t take precedence over the Green Bay Packers or the NFL. I only started playing fantasy football three years ago, but I’ve come in first, third and second, respectively in my league in those three years. Luck? Perhaps. But the league is hardly won in the first two rounds of a draft. You have to be able to fi nd some diamonds in the rough. That’s what I’ll be focusing on in this commentary. ContinueD on Pg 25

COMMENTARy, CONTINuED fROM PAgE 24 NOTE: If you’re in my fantasy league, please stop reading now. Thank you. Let’s take a look at each position that you’ll be drafting and talk about some guys that might fly under the radar a little bit, but might be able to perform the same or better than those players that will get snatched up in the early rounds. For reference, I’m using the ESPN.com player rankings. The only league I’ve ever played is an ESPN standard-scoring, 10team league. No PPR or auction or anything like that. I think that’d be fun some day, but for now I just like the standard play. Quarterbacks: This a position with two clear tiers. The first consists of guys like Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and even Matthew Stafford (for only fantasy purposes keep in mind). Guys like Andrew Luck and Cam Newton will probably go higher than they should. So who should you wait for if you miss out on a top guy.? How about Matt Ryan or Tony Romo? Matt Ryan struggled a little bit last year with his top target Julio Jones out with injury. His second receiver, Roddy White, also battled injuries. If those two guys are healthy, look out. The Atlanta defense is trash, so you know Ryan will have to put up some points with his arm. Romo has a bad reputation. Will he win the Super Bowl? Probably
15th defense generally isn’t that much. You know why? It’s nearly impossible to predict a pick-6 or a five-sack game. Will putting Seattle’s D in there make you feel more confident? Maybe. But it really doesn’t matter as much as some people think it does. Instead of having a set defense, play matchups. Grab a couple mediocre defenses and play matchups week to week. Drop one of them to pick up whoever is playing the Jaguars. It’s a strategy that I use every year as I laugh at the people that grabbed defenses in the fi fth round while Need a deep sleeper for tight end? You should consider Pittsburgh’s Heath Miller.

Fredonia and Buffalo State, who already have a rich history of athletics as long-time travel partners and rivals, will enhance that rivalry beginning this season with the development of the "Battle by the Lake," a season-long all sports competition between the two institutions for The Lake Erie Cup. The two Western New York institutions, both members of the State University of New York Athletic Conference, consistently compete for recruits from the Section VI high schools, producing a natural rivalry that begins long before the first athletic competition each season. As a result, former high school teammates and rivals find themselves on opposing rosters between the two colleges situated just over 50 miles from one another. "Fredonia's rivalry with

The national 2014 pre-season rankings in NCAA Division III men's and women's soccer were released today and five Fredonia opponents are on them. The highest-ranked team on either Blue Devil schedule are the No. 1 William Smith women, who'll play host to the Blue Devil women Sept. 20 at Geneva, N.Y. The last time the teams met there, the Herons were ranked No. 1 before the Blue Devils pulled off a 1-0 upset on Sept. 15, 2012. The Herons earned a 6-0 win last season in Fredonia. The Fredonia women will play two other teams currently ranked nationally -- No. 24 Oneonta on Oct. 24, and No. 21 Rochester Institute of Technology on Oct. 28. Both games will be played at University Stadium. Meanwhile, the Fredonia men have one game against a team in the national pre-season poll -No. 24 Dickinson on Aug. 30 at Catholic University in Washington, D.C. In addition, the Blue Devils will face Oneonta, which received votes in the national poll yet did not crack the top 25, on Oct. 24 at Oneonta. The rankings were compiled and distributed by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America. Both Blue Devil teams will report to campus later this week to begin preseason drills.

and far right of where you were aiming. Why don’t I just come straight down on the ball like I’m supposed to? I wish I knew. So when we got out again on Friday, we headed to Sugar Hill Golf Course, also in Westfield. I was a member at this course last season and got to be pretty good at it. I had high hopes for a good score. The course was in good shape. The greens were certainly slower than I’ve gotten accustomed to, but they weren’t obnoxiously slow or anything. If I would have spent a little longer on the practice green I probably could have saved myself a few strokes during the actual round. I started pretty badly, much to my dismay. Actually three of the four of us started pretty badly. Yet somehow Mark, the newest golfer of the bunch, parred No. 1 with no problem at all. He actually had a fairly makeable birdie putt
that he left just short. The next hole, Bryan’s brother Tuba actually won the hole. He’s been golfi ng maybe four times over the last two years. So yes, the two people that golf the most — Bryan and myself — were bested on both of the fi rst two holes. Nice. After playing pretty poorly for three of the fi rst four holes, I fi nally started to play my game again. I had a handful of really nice shots. Unfortunately, it was too late to save my score and I ended with a 47. I sure do shoot a lot of 47s. Sunday afternoon was the best of the three rounds I had. It was again Bryan, Mark and myself at Pinehurst. Again, I struggled a little bit to open the round with a bogey and a double bogey on two pretty scoreable holes. I couldn’t help but think I was in line for another terrible round. It was all I could do to just keep my head up and have fun with my brother. But then I remem-
bered something that I picked up last year. Confidence. Confidence can be the key to playing well. I remember a few times last year I sank some really long putts just because I thought I could. That’s an aspect of my game that seems to have vanished. So I started just thinking about all the good shots that I could make instead of what could go wrong and it was like a light switch got fl ipped. Over the next five holes, I was just threeover par, and that included one botched par putt that I make nine times out of 10 and pars on both of the par 3s. I did botch No. 8, but settled down to play No. 9 pretty well. I think it was just two or three outings ago that Bryan and I decided to add our scores together and give ourselves something combined to shoot for each time out. Well, with a pair of 45s, that combined 90 is going to be awfully tough to beat. We’ve never
done this adding thing in the last three years of golfi ng, but I can guarantee that we’ve never even sniffed 90 before. So I’m sad that Mark is leaving our golfi ng group, but hopefully late August and all of September brings some good golfi ng weather. The one thing I don’t like about Fall golf is losing balls in random piles of dead leaves on the ground. But if you enjoy golf and slightly cooler weather than the middle of summer (this year aside, of course), then Fall golf is where it’s at. It’s also the time of year that I start getting out there with my wife a few times. She doesn’t particularly like golf I don’t think, but it’s something fun that we can do together. As always, golf is great. Go get yourself some.. Stefan Gestwicki is the sports editor of the Chautauqua Star.

Former Sabres Owner Golisano Submits Bid To Buy Bills
By John Wawrow AP Sports Writer
Former Buffalo Sabres owner Tom Golisano has entered the running to purchase the Buffalo Bills. A person familiar with the sale process confirmed to The Associated Press on Thursday that Golisano submitted a non-binding bid to Morgan Stanley, the banking firm overseeing the sale. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the sale is private. The Buffalo News first reported Golisano's entry earlier in the day. The Bills are on the market after Hall of Fame owner Ralph Wilson died in March. Golisano's addition comes at the same time the sale process moved into the next phase after Bills officials began meeting with prospective ownership groups that had already submitted their nonbinding bids. Two other people familiar with the process said New York real estate
mogul Donald Trump was first up, by attending a lengthy presentation in the Detroit-area on Wednesday. Current Sabres owners Terry and Kim Pegula, and a Toronto-based group fronted by rocker Jon Bon Jovi are also scheduled to attend presentations. The presentations provide prospective buyers an opportunity to receive extensive financial and background information on the franchise in order to prepare their formal bids, which are expected to be submitted within three weeks. A prospective owner is expected to be identified by the end of next month, and then presented to NFL owners for approval at league meetings in New York in early October. Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly and his brother Dan Kelly, who runs the family's business interests, have also been invited to a presentation. Though the Kellys have expressed interest in purchasing the team,

uisite in the sale process. Last weekend, Bon Jovi had a letter published in The Buffalo News stating that his objective was ''to carry on the legacy of Ralph Wilson and make the Bills successful in Buffalo.'' He didn't state in the seven-paragraph letter that he was committed to keeping the franchise in Buffalo. The only commitment Bon Jovi provided was working with state and local officials to identify a site for a potential new stadium. The letter was received with much skepticism in Buffalo and among Bills fans, who fear Bon Jovi eventually intends to relocate the team to Toronto. Under the current lease, reached in December 2012, the Bills would incur a $400 million penalty for broaching the prospect of moving during the 10-year agreement. There is a one-time exception that would allow the Bills to break the agreement for just under $28.4 million in 2020.

Bills coach Doug Marrone said. ''I think we're excited about being able to compete with them.'' The trip appears to be coming at a good time for Buffalo. Buffalo's last scheduled practice before the trip on Tuesday morning was canceled due to rain. Tempers were heating
up at the team's Sunday afternoon practice, which was the second practice in back-to-back days after Buffalo's preseason game against Carolina on Friday. Early in the session, an unusual scene unfolded when around 20 players on offense and defense - led by running back Fred Jackson and safety
Aaron Williams - converged around midfield to exchange words. The sides were participating in completely separate drills. No punches were thrown, but several players had to be restrained. It was an indication that the grind of training camp had set in. ''You get tired of look-
ing at the same faces,'' said Jackson, who considers Williams one of his best friends on the team. ''You're going up against the same guys and things are going to get a little chippy, a little chirpy, and that's part of it. That's training camp. That's what training camp is about.

Lochte Beats Phelps In 200 IM At U.S. Nationals
By Beth Harris AP Sports Writer
Ryan Lochte beat Michael Phelps to win the 200-meter individual medley at the U.S. national championships Sunday, leaving Phelps winless in four races at his biggest meet since coming out of retirement. Lochte, the world champion, led all the way and touched in 1 minute, 56.50 seconds Sunday night. He is coming off major knee surgery, which limited his training. "This year has been up and down, but I'm glad I got a win knowing that I really haven't done the work I wanted to," he said. Phelps, the three-time Olympic champion in the event, chased Lochte

also looking forward to reconnecting with Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin, whom he knows from his hometown in Virginia. ''I'm looking forward to getting together with the Steelers,'' Manuel said. ''I'm very good friends with Coach Tomlin, we're from the

''He was visibly shaken by this incident, and has promised his continuing cooperation in this investigation.'' After the investigation is completed, Povero said, the evidence will be turned over to the district attorney as a matter of routine. Even if he is cleared by prosecutors, though, Stewart could face a civil suit. Although the standard of proof is lower than in a criminal case, the civil court would also consider Ward's state of mind at the time of the accident and whether he was also negligent in venturing into racing traffic on a dark track in a dark suit. But Stewart would also have to weigh the damage to his image and career - with his own team, tracks and millions in endorsements - making a quick settlement likely.
