TIPP CITY — A fiery crash on southbound Interstate 75 late Wednesday night has left two dead. Three commercial vehicles and four passenger cars were involved in a crash that started at approximately 9:43 p.m. Wednesday around the 68 mile marker at the Ohio 571 exit. Traffic was down to one lane for construction and according to reports, a semi-tractor trailer failed to see the stopped traffic and struck a passenger car. The car then hit a second tractor trailer and caused a chain reaction with a third semi truck and three additional passenger vehicles. There also was a massive explo-

Law enforcement, firefighters and medics from multiple jurisdictions work the scene of a crash on southbound I-75 at the 68 mile marker in Tipp City on Wednesday. The crash left two semi drivers dead and at least two other victims injured. The crash occurred around 10 p.m. Authorities closed I-75 in both directions for more than 10 hours as crews worked to put out the fires and then clear the wreckage.

involved were treated at the scene. Both lanes of I-75 were shut down for several hours. Northbound lanes opened about 2:30 a.m., but the southbound stretch of I-75 from the 571 exit to the County Road 25A

exit 69 remained closed through the morning for removal of wreckage and inspection by the Ohio Department of Transportation. Traffic was backed up past Troy on the interstate and crawled on County Road 25A/Dixie Drive.

The front driver’s side of Tipp City police cruiser No. 106 was hit by a tire during one of the explosions, leaving cosmetic damage. The cruiser is currently unable to start, due to the close proximity of heat from the explosions, according to Police

Chief Eric Burris. As of press time, the identity of the victims had not been released. The crash has been turned over to Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Miami County Coroner’s Office for further investigation.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama on Thursday prepared for the possibility of launching unilateral American military action against Syria within days as Britain opted out in a stunning vote by Parliament. Facing skepticism at home, too, the administration shared intelligence with lawmakers aimed at convincing them the Syrian government used chemical weapons against its people and must be punished. Despite roadblocks in forming an international coalition, Obama appeared undeterred and advisers said he would be willing to retaliate against Syria on his own. “The president of the United States is elected with the duty to protect the national security interests in the United States of America,” White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. Even before the vote in London, the U.S. was preparing to act without formal authorization from the United Nations, where Russia has blocked efforts to seek a resolution authorizing the use of force, or from Capitol Hill. But the U.S. had expected Britain, a major ally, to join in the effort. Top U.S. officials spoke with certain lawmakers for more than 90 minutes in a teleconference Thursday evening to explain why they believe Bashar Assad’s government was the culprit in a suspected chemical attack last week. Lawmakers from both parties have been pressing Obama to provide a legal rationale for military action

and specify objectives, as well as to lay out a firm case linking Assad to the attack. Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, senior Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and already a supporter of moving against Syria in a limited way, said after the briefing that “strong evidence of the Assad regime’s continued use of chemical warfare” merited a military response. It remained to be seen whether any skeptics were swayed, given the expectation that officials would hold back classified information to protect intelligence sources and methods. In London, Prime Minister David Cameron argued a military strike would be legal on humanitarian grounds. But he faced deep pressure from lawmakers and had already promised not to undertake military action until a U.N. chemical weapons team on the ground in Syria released its findings about the Aug. 21 attack. The prime minister said in terse comments after the vote that while he believes in a “tough response” to the use of chemical weapons, he would respect the will of the House of Commons. Caitlin Hayden, Obama’s National Security Council spokeswoman, said the U.S. would continue to consult with Britain but Obama would make decisions based on “the best interests of the United States.” It was not certain the U.S. would have to act alone. France announced that its armed forces “have been put in position to

respond” if President Francois Hollande commits forces to intervention against Syria. Hollande does not need French parliamentary approval to launch military action that lasts less than four months. Obama discussed the situation in Syria with House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, who wrote to the president earlier this week seeking a legal justification for a military strike and the objectives of any potential action. Assad, who has denied using chemical weapons, vowed his country “will defend itself against any aggression.” Some of the U.N. chemical weapons experts will travel directly from Syria on Saturday to different laboratories around Europe to deliver “an extensive amount of material” gathered, U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq said. While the mandate of the U.N. team is to determine whether chemical agents were used in the attack, not who was responsible, Haq suggested the evidence — which includes biological samples and witness interviews — might give an indication of who deployed gases. Obama and other top officials have not revealed definitive evidence to back claims that Assad used chemical weapons on Syrians. U.S. officials say the intelligence assessments are no “slam dunk,” with questions remaining about who actually controls some of Syria’s chemical weapons stores and doubts about whether Assad himself ordered the strike.

Syria From page 1 carry out. The U.N. experts have been carrying out on-site investigations this week to determine whether chemical weapons were used in the attack that the group Doctors Without Borders says killed 355 people. Inspectors visited the eastern suburb of Zamalka, where they interviewed survivors and collected samples. Amateur video posted online showed U.N. inspectors in gas masks walking through the rubble of a damaged building. One inspector scooped pulverized debris from the ground, placed it in a glass container and wrapped the container in a plastic bag. The video corresponded to other AP reporting of the events depicted. U.N. SecretaryGeneral Ban Ki-moon urged Western powers to hold off on any military action until the experts can present their findings to U.N. member states and the Security Council. Speaking in Vienna, Ban said the U.N. team is to leave Syria on Saturday morning and will immediately report to him. He also said that he spoke to President Barack Obama about ways to expedite the U.N. probe. Some of the experts will take samples to laboratories in Europe after leaving Damascus, according to U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq, adding that the team’s final report will depend on the lab results and could take “more than days.” The mandate of the U.N. team is to determine whether chemical agents were used in the attack, not who was responsible. But Haq suggested that evidence collected by investigators — including biological samples and interviews — might give an indication of who was behind the attack. “Their mission is to determine whether chemical weapons were used. It’s not about attribution. At the same

time, I would like to point out that they will have large number of facts at their disposal — they have collected a considerable amount of evidence through samples, evidence through witness interviews — and they can construct from that evidence of a fact-based narrative that can get at the key facts of what happened on the 21 of August,” Haq said. British and American leaders — who have put the blame for the attack squarely on the regime’s shoulders — faced pushback against possible punitive military strikes, particularly before the investigators release their conclusions. In a stunning defeat Thursday night, Cameron’s government lost a preliminary vote calling for military strikes. Although nonbinding, the rejection means Cameron’s hands are tied and he released a terse statement to Parliament saying it was clear to him that the British people did not want to see military action. The vote lost 285-272 and the prime minister said he would respect the will of the House of Commons. At the start of the week, Cameron had seemed ready to join Washington in possible military action against Assad. But the push for strikes against the Syrian regime began to lose momentum as Britain’s Labour Party announced its opposition to the move. Cameron promised to give the U.N. inspectors time to report back to the U.N. Security Council and try to secure a resolution there. He also promised to give lawmakers a second vote in a bid to assuage fears that Britain was being rushed into an attack on Assad. It wasn’t enough, however. Suspicions lingered that what was billed as a limited campaign would turn into an Iraq-style quagmire. Obama also was trying to shore up politi-

cal support for a move against Syria. The administration planned briefings for leaders of the House and Senate and national security committees, U.S. officials and congressional aides said. Obama, although still reportedly weighing his options, signaled Wednesday the U.S. was moving toward a punitive strike, saying he has “concluded” that Assad’s regime is behind the attacks and that there “need to be international consequences.” U.S. intelligence officials said the intelligence linking Assad or his inner circle to the Aug. 21 attack is no sure thing, with questions remaining about who controls some of Syria’s chemical weapons stores and doubts about whether Assad ordered the strike. The administration has signaled that it would act against the Syrian government even without the backing of allies or the U.N. French defense officials said publicly for the first time that their military is preparing for a possible operation in Syria — but President Francois Hollande stopped short of announcing armed intervention. Unlike Obama and Cameron, he has a freer hand to decide how to deal with the crisis — Hollande does not need parliamentary approval to launch military action that lasts less than four months. French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said “the armed forces have been put in position to respond” if Hollande commits French forces to an international intervention. France has a dozen cruise missile-capable fighter aircraft at bases in the United Arab Emirates and the Horn of Africa nation of Djibouti. France’s military was at the forefront of the NATO-led attacks on Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi

in 2011, and led an intervention against extremists in Mali earlier this year. The U.S. has already dispatched naval forces toward the eastern Mediterranean toward Syria’s shores. If Obama decides on military action, U.S. administration and defense officials in recent days have said the most likely move would be the launch of Tomahawk missiles off ships in the Mediterranean. Syrian officials have urged the U.N. inspectors to extend their mission to investigate what the regime alleges are three chemical attacks against Syrian soldiers this month in the Damascus suburbs. Haq, the U.N. spokesman, said the U.N. team will leave despite the government’s request, although the appeal is being given serious consideration and that the experts intend to return to Syria to investigate other incidents. The brief meeting of the Security Council permanent members was the second time in two days they had met on Syria. In a tension-filled meeting Wednesday, the U.S., Britain, France, China and Russia discussed a resolution proposed by Britain to authorize the use of military force against Syria. Moscow firmly opposes military action. ——— Lucas reported from Beirut.

Prisons facing inmate population spike Andrew Welsh-Huggins Associated Press

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio’s prison inmate population is spiking beyond estimates and widespread changes are needed to reduce the numbers, the director of the state prison system said Thursday. The state’s already high population of 50,000 could soar to 52,000 in two years and top 53,000 in six years, Gary Mohr, director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, said in a presentation to a legislative prison inspection committee. The system is currently at 131 percent of inmate capacity and could hit 139 percent by 2019, Mohr warned. California’s system was

declared unconstitutional at 140 percent, he said. Mohr also singled out 2017 as a significant year: the earliest that Ohio could build a new prison to deal with the increase, if that were the approach taken. Mohr said in a follow-up interview with The Associated Press he would consider it a failure if that happened. “If we don’t do anything, it projects a level of crowding that we cannot handle,” Mohr said. “Those are the challenges.” Inmates entering the prison system today have committed more serious crimes, resulting in longer sentences, according to a report to be released later Thursday by the Correctional Institution Inspection Committee.

The number of women behind bars also is soaring and far outpacing the increase in the male population, the CIIC report added. Women accounted for 6 percent of the total prison population 10 years ago but now account for 8 percent, with 4,001 females behind bars in Ohio, according to the CIIC. The population numbers are in stark contrast to rosy projections from just two years ago as lawmakers passed a bill meant to reduce the inmate population. Under that 2011 law, the number of inmates was supposed to drop to around 47,000 by 2015 and dip below 47,000 two years after that. But that law didn’t anticipate a recent increase in vio-

lent crime and an uptick in cases filed by prosecutors across the state, Mohr said. He called some of the changes in the 2011 law, such as earned credit for good behavior, “tinkering.” Mohr also said offenders committing minor drug and property crimes are being kept out of prison, but nearly one in four are returning for probation violations. Mohr also said something still needs to be done with the system of probation departments in Ohio, which is patchwork and not centralized. The prisons agency recently privatized its food service system, a decision it blamed in part on budget shortfalls created by the unanticipated rise in inmate populations.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Jurors heard closing arguments in which attorneys invoked the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his dream for equality Thursday before beginning to deliberate whether the city discriminated and retaliated against a black fire lieutenant in what he called “a class case of institutional racism.” The deliberations began after a one-week trial in the lawsuit brought by longtime Cincinnati fire Lt. Mark Broach against the city, claiming that he was targeted for defending a fellow black fire-

fighter and for filing a discrimination complaint with the city. In his closing argument, Broach’s attorney became tearful as he spoke of a letter that King wrote from a Birmingham, Ala., jail defending his tactic of street protests, writing: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” “I am really sorry, after all these years, that we have to do a case like this in Cincinnati,” attorney Al Gerhardstein told jurors, calling on them to return a verdict in favor of Broach “that will sing to all of Cincinnati that they better wake up and stop discrimination and stop retaliation.”

Agency seeks tough rules to reduce Lake Erie algae John Flesher Associated Press

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — The U.S. and Canada should crack

down on sources of phosphorus runoff blamed for a rash of harmful algae blooms on Lake Erie, an advisory agency said Thursday. The algae pro-

duce harmful toxins and contribute to oxygendeprived “dead zones” where fish cannot survive. The International Joint

Commission said in a report that urgent steps are needed to curb runaway algae — a problem that led both nations to reach their first agreement to improve Great Lakes water quality more than 40 years ago, when some considered Erie ecologically dead. Tougher standards for municipal and industrial waste treatment produced improvements by reducing the flow into the lake of phosphorus on which algae feeds. But the problem began worsening in the late 1990s. In 2011, the largest mass on record formed in the lake’s western basin, eventually reaching more than 100 miles from Toledo to Cleveland. “What happened in 2011 was such a shock that people realize more of the same is just not tolerable,” said Lana Pollack,

chairwoman of the commission’s U.S. section. “If we can get the governments to take action on this report, it will make a big difference.” The report says different sources of phosphorus runoff have emerged — primarily large farms, where manure and other fertilizers are washed into tributary rivers during storms and snowmelt. They accounted for more than half of the phosphorus that reached the lake in 2011, while one-third came from smaller farms and nearshore communities as well as city sewers. More intense storms likely caused by climate change are sweeping more nutrients into the lake, the report said. Additionally, unlike decades ago, much of the phosphorus dissolves in water, making it easier for algae to consume.

The report sets targets for sharp reductions in phosphorus runoff over three to six years, including a 46 percent decrease in total phosphorus and a 78 percent cut in the dissolved type for the lake’s central and western basins. To reach those goals, governments in both countries should require “best management practices” that reduce the amount of phosphorus applied to fields and slow the flow of water to drainage systems, the report says. One step should be to ban spreading manure on frozen or snow-covered ground, it says. Another proposal would link the cost and availability of governmentsubsidized crop insurance to farmers’ willingness to curb phosphorus runoff. “The idea is that if you’re contributing to pollution, you’re going to pay more,” Pollack said. “There’s really a strong need to change agricultural practices, or else just say you’re going to sacrifice Lake Erie.” The report also calls for prohibiting nearly all use of phosphorus fertilizers for lawn care, and for additional study and monitoring of sewage plants and other facilities that discharge into the lake. The goals are challenging but achievable, said Raj Bejankiwar, a commission scientist who led development of the report. “Lake Erie was in a worse situation in the ’60s and ’70s … and both nations took action and the lake came back,” he said. “We’ve done it before and it’s doable now.”

Nation/World Today in History By The Associated Press

Today is Friday, Aug. 30, the 242nd day of 2013. There are 123 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On August 30, 1983, Guion S. Bluford Jr. became the first black American astronaut to travel in space as he blasted off aboard the Challenger. On this date: In 1861, Union Gen. John C. Fremont instituted martial law in Missouri and declared slaves there to be free. (However, Fremont’s emancipation order was countermanded by President Abraham Lincoln). In 1862, Confederate forces won victories against the Union at the Second Battle of Bull Run in Manassas, Va., and the Battle of Richmond in Kentucky. In 1905, Ty Cobb made his major-league debut as a player for the Detroit Tigers, hitting a double in his first at-bat in a game against the New York Highlanders. (The Tigers won, 5-3.) In 1941, during World War II, German forces approaching Leningrad cut off the remaining rail line out of the city. In 1945, Gen. Douglas MacArthur arrived in Japan to set up Allied occupation headquarters. In 1963, the “Hot Line” communications link between Washington and Moscow went into operation. In 1967, the Senate confirmed the appointment of Thurgood Marshall as the first black justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1986, Soviet authorities arrested Nicholas Daniloff, a correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, as a spy a week after American officials arrested Gennadiy Zakharov, a Soviet employee of the United Nations, on espionage charges in New York. (Both men were later released.) In 1987, a redesigned space shuttle booster, created in the wake of the Challenger disaster, roared into life in its first full-scale test-firing near Brigham City, Utah. In 1991, Azerbaijan (ah-zurby-JAHN’) declared its independence, joining the stampede of republics seeking to secede from the Soviet Union. In 1993, “The Late Show with David Letterman” premiered on CBS-TV. In 1997, Americans received word of the car crash in Paris that claimed the lives of Princess Diana, Dodi Fayed and their driver, Henri Paul. (Because of the time difference, it was Aug. 31 where the crash occurred.) Ten years ago: A Russian submarine being towed to a scrap yard sank in a gale in the Barents Sea, killing nine of the 10-member crew. The World Trade Organization agreed to let impoverished nations import cheaper copies of patented medicines needed to fight killer diseases. Actor Charles Bronson, 81, died in Los Angeles. Inventor Robert Abplanalp, confidant of President Richard Nixon, died in Bronxville, N.Y., at age 81.

Out of the Blue

That’s one furry cat LOS ANGELES (AP) — This is fur real. Colonel Meow has 9-inch hair. That’s good enough to put the Himalayan-Persian mix into the 2014 edition of the Guinness World Records book, due out Sept. 12. Owners Anne Marie Avey and Eric Rosario, of Los Angeles, say the 2-year-old cat got its name because of his epic frown and fur. It takes both of them to brush the cat’s fur three times a week. Three independent veterinarians verified the length of the colonel’s hair and submitted their findings to Guinness before he won the title. Avey says the 10-pound cat has his own website, Facebook page and YouTube channel with more than 2 million views. Avey says there’s one other thing Colonel Meow does quite well too: He sheds up a storm. ——— Online: https://www.facebook.com/colonelmeowinthecity

AP Food Industry Writer

NEW YORK (AP) — Fast-food workers and their supporters beat drums, blew whistles and chanted slogans Thursday on picket lines in dozens of U.S. cities, marking the largest protests yet in their quest for higher wages. The nationwide day of demonstrations came after similar actions organized by unions and community groups over the past several months. Workers are calling for the right to unionize without interference from employers and for pay of $15 an hour. That’s more than double the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, or $15,000 a year for full-time employees. Thursday’s walkouts and protests reached about 60 cities, including New York, Chicago and Detroit, organizers said. But the turnout varied significantly. Some targeted restaurants were temporarily unable to do business because they had too few employees, and others seemingly operated normally.

ers gathered, said he “absolutely” supported the demand for higher wages. “They work harder than the billionaires in this city,” he said. But Carter said he didn’t plan to stop his regular trips to McDonald’s. Jobs in low-wage industries have led the economic recovery.

Advocates for a higher minimum wage say that makes it crucial that they pay enough for workers who support families. The restaurant industry says it already operates on thin margins and insists that sharply higher wages would lead to steeper prices for customers and fewer oppor-

tunities for job seekers. The drive for better pay comes as the White House, some members of Congress and economists seek to raise the federal minimum wage. But most proposals are for a more modest increase, with President Barack Obama suggesting $9 an hour.

Congo conflict spills over into Rwanda Jason Straziuso and Saleh Mwanamilongo Associated Press

KINSHASA, Congo (AP) — Fighting from the war in eastern Congo that pits U.N. and Congolese forces against rebels spilled over into Rwanda on Thursday when 10 shells landed in a Rwandan border town and a nearby village, killing at least one person, authorities said. Rwanda, which the U.N. accuses of backing the rebels in the neighboring nation of Congo, blamed the Congolese military for the shelling

of its territory, saying it was done with the intention of dragging them into the conflict. But in New York, the United Nations said the U.N. force “can confirm firing incidents into Rwandan territory originated from M23 positions” from Aug. 22-29, and stressed that “it has not witnessed any Congolese Armed Forces firing into Rwandan territory during this period.” Rwandan Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo said a projectile fired by Congolese forces at 9:45 a.m. killed a woman and seriously

injured her 2-month old baby in a market in Rubavu town, located 3 kilometers (2 miles) from the Congolese border. “We have remained restrained for as long as we can but this provocation can no longer be tolerated. We have the capacity to determine who fired at us and will not hesitate to defend our territory. Rwanda has a responsibility to protect its population,” Mushikiwabo said. She said a second projectile landed at 11:20 a.m. in Rubavu, injuring one person, and that eight landed at nearby Busasamana

village 10 minutes later. Goma, a city of 1 million located on the Rwandan border, briefly fell to the M23 rebels last year, whose ranks are swollen with undercover Rwandan soldiers, according to repeated reports by the United Nations Group of Experts. The soldiers from Rwanda join the M23 in small groups, hiking across footpaths into Congo. Rwanda has also supplied them with arms and sophisticated equipment, including night vision goggles, the report said. Meanwhile, combat

continued in eastern Congo on Thursday, and Congolese Minister of Information Lambert Mende confirmed that two shells had landed in two separate neighborhoods in the provincial capital of Goma overnight, killing one person and wounding eight. That brings to 13 the number of people killed in Goma by shelling from rebel positions north of the city in just over a week, ever since the Congolese army backed by United Nations troops went on the offensive against the M23 rebels.

Feds won’t sue to stop marijuana use in 2 states Gene Johnson and Pete Yost Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — Despite 75 years of federal marijuana prohibition, the Justice Department said Thursday that states can let people use the drug, license people to grow it and even allow adults to stroll into stores and buy it — as long as the weed is kept away from kids, the black market and federal property. In a sweeping new policy statement prompted by pot legalization votes in Washington and Colorado last fall, the department gave the green light to states to adopt tight regulatory schemes to oversee the medical and recreational marijuana industries burgeoning across the country. The action, welcomed by supporters of legalization, could set the stage for more states to legalize marijuana. Alaska is scheduled to vote on the question next year, and a few other states plan similar votes in 2016. The policy change embraces what Justice Department officials called a “trust but

verify” approach between the federal government and states that enact recreational drug use. In a memo to all 94 U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country, Deputy Attorney General James Cole said the federal government expects that states and local governments authorizing “marijuana-related conduct” will implement strong and effective regulatory and enforcement systems that address the threat those state laws could pose to public health and safety. “If state enforcement efforts are not sufficiently robust … the federal government may seek to challenge the regulatory structure itself,” the memo stated. The U.S. attorney in Colorado, John Walsh, said he will continue to focus on whether Colorado’s system has the resources and tools necessary to protect key federal public safety interests. Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said the state is working to improve education and prevention efforts directed at young people and on enforcement tools to prevent access to marijuana by

those under age 21. Colorado also is determined to keep marijuana businesses from being fronts for criminal enterprises or other illegal activity, he said, and the state is committed to preventing the export of marijuana while also enhancing efforts to keep state roads safe from impaired drivers. Under the policy, the federal government’s top investigative priorities range from preventing the distribution of marijuana to minors to preventing sales revenue from going to criminal enterprises, gangs and cartels and preventing the diversion of marijuana outside of states where it is legal under state law. Other top-priority enforcement areas include stopping state-authorized marijuana activity from being used as a cover for trafficking other illegal drugs and preventing violence and the use of firearms in the cultivation and distribution of marijuana. The top areas also include preventing drugged driving, preventing growing marijuana on public land and preventing marijuana possession on federal property.

J&J launches new cap to curb Tylenol overdoses Matthew Perrone AP Health Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) — Bottles of Tylenol sold in the U.S. will soon bear red warnings alerting users to the potentially fatal risks of taking too much of the popular pain reliever. The unusual step, disclosed by the company that makes Tylenol, comes amid a growing number of lawsuits and pressure from the federal government that could have widespread ramifications for a medicine taken by millions of people every day. Johnson & Johnson says the warning will appear on the cap of new bottles of Extra Strength Tylenol sold in the U.S. starting in October and on most other Tylenol bottles in coming months. The warning will make it explicitly clear that the over-the-counter drug contains acetaminophen, a pain-relieving ingredient that’s the nation’s leading cause of sudden liver failure.

Angry teachers paralyze Mexico City with protests Mark Stevenson Associated Press

MEXICO CITY (AP) — This sprawling metropolis of honking cars and 22 million harried people has been brought to its knees, not by an earthquake or its ominous smoking volcanoes, but rather a small contingent of angry school teachers. Some 10,000 educators protesting a government reform program have in the span of a week disrupted international air travel, forced the cancellation of two major soccer matches, rerouted the planned route of the marathon and jammed

up already traffic-choked freeways. The disruptions have shown how little it takes to push a city that is snarled on a good day over the edge. Taxi drivers are so desperate they are refusing fares to certain frequently blocked parts of the city, and residents have turned to urban survival skills — driving the wrong way down streets, using rental bikes, clambering over fences and piling into the back of police pickups to get to their destinations. The city even been launched an app on Tuesday that warns drivers of protest locations, with a little orange icon

of what appears to be a city resident climbing a mountain marking each blockade or march. “It’s terrible. There’s no business … people don’t even want to get into a cab, because the traffic isn’t going anywhere,” taxi driver Ernesto Gallegos said disconsolately Wednesday, standing beside his parked cab on the curb of the city’s main boulevard. “People will get out and say, ‘I’ll walk instead.’ They’ll get on these ecobikes,” he said, referring to the city’s bike-sharing program. Cesar Juarez, 30, who works repairing wireless systems for a telecom

company, sat in his car at an intersection blocked by protesters, shooting photos with his cellphone to show his boss why he couldn’t reach a client. Others stuck in frozen traffic near the protests busily dialed in to postpone meetings. “I’ve had to cancel two appointments so far today,” fumed welldressed bank employee Arturo Gutierrez, 47, rapidly texting away on his Blackberry. “That’s lost economic activity.” “I just told my wife: ‘Let’s go live in the countryside. What are we doing here?’” The cause of this upheaval is a government

reform program that would subject teachers to periodic evaluations in the form of standardized tests, and end the unions’ power over hiring. That would be a jolt to an education system in which some teachers can actually inherit their jobs from their parents. Juan Melchor Roman, one of the leaders of the striking teachers, said the union was aware of the growing anger among city residents. “But we think that is being whipped up by the news media,” he said. “We are asking the public to understand the teachers’ struggle … and understand us a little.”

The Community Blood Center (CBC) is honoring the memory of 9/11 victims with blood drives locally. Everyone who registers to donate will receive the limitededition “9/11 We Remember” T-shirt. Donors are encouraged to schedule an appointment online at www.DonorTime.com. On Sept. 11, 2001, long lines of donors stretched around CBC donor centers, a scene repeated at blood centers across the country. For a nation in shock, donating blood was a way to take action and respond with compassion to a national tragedy. The 9/11 T-shirt arranges the words “Together United We Remember September Forever Blood Donor” in red and blue lettering on a white background. The T-shirt is free to everyone who registers to donate Tuesday through Sept. 14 at any CBC Donor Center and most mobile blood drives. The CBC “King of the Road Summer Blood Drive” campaign, partially sponsored by Gover Harley-Davidson in Piqua, REACH Magazine and W Productions in Urbana, concluded Aug. 31. Ten computer-selected finalists will be invited to a special

‘Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over’ this Labor Day weekend COLUMBUS – With the upcoming Labor Day Holiday, the Ohio State Highway Patrol is asking motorists to help Ohio achieve a record year by not driving impaired, buckling up and keeping their focus on the road. During last year’s four-day holiday reporting period of Aug. 31 through Sept. 3, 14 people lost their lives on Ohio’s roadways, with five of those deaths involving an impaired driver. “With everyone’s commitment to ensuring a safe Labor Day weekend, there is no reason why Ohio can’t achieve fewer than 1,000 traffic fatalities in 2013,” said Colonel Paul A. Pride, Patrol superintendent. The Patrol announced Thursday that Ohio is on pace to establish a record low in traffic fatalities in 2013. Ohio’s previous record low occurred in 2011, when 1,014 people were killed in traffic-related crashes on Ohio’s roadways. While one death on our roads is one too many, preliminary data indicates 568 confirmed deaths and an additional 35 provisional unconfirmed deaths, for a total “worst-case scenario” of 603 traffic deaths during the first two-thirds of the year. By comparison, during the same time period in 2011, there had been 649 people killed in trafficrelated crashes.

General public not likely to notice ‘County Recorder Cleanup Bill’

Mike Seffrin

mseffrin@civitasmedia.com

A proposed law dubbed the “County Recorder Cleanup Bill” being considered by the Ohio Legislature has been in the works for several years, but the general public isn’t likely to notice once it’s enacted, according Shelby County Recorder Jodi Siegel. “I don’t think it will affect them,” Siegel said this week when asked if customers of her office would notice any changes. “They’ve been working on it for four or five years,” said Siegel, who has worked on a legislative committee dealing with the bill. “We’re still trying to get it passed.” The state House of Representatives passed House Bill 72 in June, but the Senate hasn’t considered the measure yet, Siegel said, possibly because it’s been busy with the state budget.

“It’s really not going to affect us,” Siegel said. “We just want to be complying with Ohio Revised Code.” She said it won’t add any expense to her office, such as more staff or equipment. In a news release issued in June, state Rep. Jim Buchy, R-84, Greenville, announced the House passed the “County Recorder Cleanup Bill” in an effort to streamline and modernize the operations of county recorder offices. Highlights of House Bill 72 include: • Modernizes terminology in the Revised Code to accurately reflect how the county recorder records and keeps instruments today, for example, by computer and on other media, rather than in record books and on paper. • Requires that instruments presented for recording be kept in the county recorder’s general record series known as the “official records,” rather

Jodi Siegel

than in six separate sets of records. • Eliminates obsolete fees for recording certain instruments manually or by typewriter, and requires a fee to be charged for recording notices of possessory interests in land. • Eliminates a fine on any

county recorder who record plats contrary to a municipal corporation’s plat laws. • Allows the county recorder to dispose of paper versions of notices of recognizance liens and of their discharge if the county records commission revises the records retention and disposal schedule accordingly. • Requires the county recorder to be included when the county auditor and county engineer adopt by written agreement standards governing conveyances of real property. “Local governments in westcentral Ohio are working hard to provide better services at a lower cost to the taxpayer. This bill is an example of a commitment to common-sense approaches,” said Buchy. “Our local county recorders are well organized and understand what they need to run their offices more efficiently.”

Three Lehman teachers get governor’s awards The Ohio Academy of Science has selected 58 Ohio schools and 420 teachers to receive Governor’s Thomas Edison Awards for Excellence in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) Education for their accomplishments during the 2012-13 school year. Each will receive special Governor’s Award certificates. Science teachers from Lehman Catholic High School who are receiving the award are Tracy Hall, Amanda Duritsch and Sister Ginny Scherer. This is the 24th consecutive year that teachers at Lehman Catholic have received the Governor’s Award. Of the 58 schools recognized, seven schools were from the Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati: McNicholas High School and Guardian Angels School in Cincinnati; Carroll High School and Bishop Leibold E&W Campuses, all of Dayton; Alter High School in Kettering; St. Peter School in Huber Heights; and Lehman. Lehman was the only school in Shelby County to receive the award. The Ohio Academy of Science initiated this educational partnership program in cooperation with The Office of the Governor and The Technology Division of The Ohio Department of Development to recognize schools and teachers who stimulate student scientific and technological research and extend STEM education opportunities beyond traditional class-

room activities. The Technology Division of The Ohio Department of Development has supported this program since 1985 by grants to The Ohio Academy of Science. “ These awardee schools are engaged in project-based curricula, the central element of any STEM education program,” said Dr. Lynn E. Elfner, the academy’s CEO. “Receiving a Governor’s Thomas Edison Award for Excellence sends a clear signal that these schools and teachers value student-originated, inquiry-based science and technology education as envisioned for the NextGeneration Science Education Standards being developed nationally. Whole new worlds of opportunities open up to students when they complete research or technological design projects and have them assessed by the professional STEM community.” To receive the award, schools must (1) conduct a local science fair with 20 or more student participants; (2) qualify one or more of these

students for one of the Academy’s 16 district science days; (3) have students participate in at least one more youth science opportunities beyond the classroom such as State Science Day, visits to museums, mentorship programs and extended field trips; and, (4) convince external reviewers from business and industry, government and academia how and to what extent the school’s program met the academy’s definition of STEM education. “We go above and beyond the scope of the criteria for the award,” said Scherer, chair of the Lehman Science Department. “Besides our annual science fair, we have a variety of extracurricular science experiences for our students, including competitive teams for Science Olympiad, TEAMS (Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics, and Science), and Envirothon.” Over the last several years, Lehman has also been involved in the Ohio Energy Project. Through the Ohio Energy Project, high

school students teach younger students about alternative sources of energy through handson learning. “Not only do we have the extracurricular science experiences, but our curriculum includes AP and Dual Enrollment science classes. Our science program is very broad. Essentially, we do it all,” said Scherer, who has been a guiding force behind the Lehman Science Department. “None of this happens without a lot of caring teachers and volunteers. Many people from the community and Lehman Alumni are also involved in Lehman science activities, serving as coaches for the Science Olympiad team and helping to judge projects at the school science fair.” Scherer and her students have also spent many hours compiling information about the various activities of the Lehman Science Department to send to the award committee. The judges expect reports, photographs, competition results, and other documentation to accompany each year’s

application. Thirty-five professionals — broadly representing STEM employers from business and industry, government, and academia — evaluate the applications in a blind review process. “While the importance of STEM education is growing in recognition, Lehman Catholic students have enjoyed that advantage for many years,” Lehman Catholic President Mike Barhorst stated. “Because so many of our graduates pursue advanced degrees in medicine, engineering, technology and mathematics, we recognized the importance of STEM curriculum long before it became a leading educational movement.” The Ohio Academy of Science strives to be the leading organization in Ohio dedicated to fostering curiosity, discovery, and innovation among Ohio’s students. The academy aims to unite all who value education, science, engineering, technology, and their applications to benefit society. As defined by The Ohio Academy of Science, STEM education is both the mastery and integration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics for all pre-K-12 students. It incorporates scientific inquiry and technological design through student-focused, project-based curricula to develop skills of communication, teamwork/ collaboration, creativity/innovation, critical thinking, and problem solving.

Return the stolen ring DR. WALLACE: I’ve been dating Josh for more than a year. I like him, but he does things that I don’t approve of. I’m 18, and he is 20 and full of bad habits. He smokes marijuana and tobacco cigarettes, and I hate to kiss him because he reeks of stale smoke. He drinks and doesn’t know when to quit. I can’t count the number of times he has become so drunk that I had to drive him home in his car. My birthday was last week, and he gave me a beautiful ring. Since Josh rarely has money to spare, I asked him where he bought the ring and how much he paid for it. He said that his

cousin works for a jewelry shop and told him to take it because Josh had fixed his cousin’s car. When I said it sounded like the ring was stolen, Josh said that the jewelry shop makes tons of money, and they wouldn’t miss the ring that probably only cost the jeweler $100. What should I do? —Brianna, El Paso, Texas BRIANNA: I think you know what to do. There’s no way you would feel comfortable wearing a stolen ring, and Josh’s reassurances — that the ring isn’t worth all that much and wouldn’t be missed — only make matters worse. A “gift” like this is an insult. Return the ring and, after you’ve done that, you might

often it happens within six months of being on the statin. Blood tests to look for muscle breakdown can identify the most serious complications of statins, but the tests can be normal. Even so, people still may get better by changing statins. Neurontin is a very helpful medication for neuropathy, but I’m not convinced that we know yet why your husband is having muscle pains. A repeat visit to the doctor is in order. DEAR DR. ROACH: A couple of years ago, I had an abdominal ultrasound, and I was told I had an abdominal aortic aneurism (5.2 cm). A month ago, I had another ultrasound, and the aneurism is now 6.4 cm. Is this something that may need treatment? I’m 82. — W.H. ANSWER: The aorta is the largest blood vessel in your body, taking all the blood from your heart and delivering it to your body. An aneurism is a weak spot in the wall, causing it to expand like a tire. The larg-

er the aneurism, the higher the risk of rupture. The risk is very low below 5 cm, but it goes up rapidly when the aneurism is larger than 5.5 cm. Yours is now at a point where the risk for rupture is high (about 10 percent likely in the next year), and most surgeons would strongly urge you to undergo elective repair as soon as possible. Sometimes these can be repaired endovascularly (through the blood vessel, not by opening up the abdomen), and this may be less risky, especially since you are in your 80s. Because of the large size, and because it has grown significantly in the past couple of years, I would strongly advise consulting with a vascular surgeon to discuss your options as soon as possible. Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

100 years Aug. 30, 1913 Tomorrow is primary election day in Sidney. The scarcity of candidates on the tickets is surprising and the indifference of the voters is more surprising. It is the duty of every voter to go to the election and express his choice and a failure to do so shows an indifference to good citizenship and is quasi criminal neglect of duty. ––––– The place for holding the Butchers’ picnic on Labor Day, has been changed from the fairgrounds to the Timeus club house, north of the city on the St. Marys pike. The butchers of Piqua, Troy, Wapakoneta, and other places will join with Sidney butchers for the affair. 75 years Aug. 30, 1938 Arthur Koons has purchased the T.C. Breslin grocery and meat market on North Broadway Avenue and is assuming charge immediately. The grocery has been located in its present quarters since it was established a number of years ago by the late T.C. Breslin. Mr. Koon has for the past 15 years been associated with the Kroger Company as a manager and is well known in the grocery field. ––––– The Rees Creamery at Lockington has been sold by Mr. Rees to William Forsyth, who has taken possession and is now operating the creamery.

The Ohio Historical Society has received expressions of concern about the project. Douglas Stewart, president of Peoples Federal, said Peoples Federal officials complied with the Historical Society inquiry in December 1987 to consider renovation of the former Werst building. “However, after obtaining cost estimates for the renovation in order to meet state building codes we decided, in view of our present and future operational needs, it was not feasible to renovate the existing structure,” Stewart said in a written response to the OHS. ——— These news items from past issues of the Sidney Daily News are compiled by the Shelby County Historical Society (498-1653) as a public service to the community.

being supportive is what you can do best for your friend. When the son raises the subject again with his mother, she should tell him that she loves him and will see that his wishes are carried out, even though losing him will be losing a part of herself.

Russia coach expects team to be top contender again Editor’s note: The information submitted on the Russia volleyball team for the annual Fall Sports Preview which was included in Thursday’s paper was from last year. Following is a story written from this year’s information: —— The Russia High School volleyball team is off to an excellent start this season, despite graduating seven seniors off last year’s squad that finished 10-2 in County play and was an impressive 22-4 overall. Todd Wion is back as the head coach of the Lady Raiders for his fourth season, and thinks it’s going to be another

good year. “I think we’ll be strong again,” Wion said. “Not only in the league but also in postseason. The league is always tough and will be very strong again this year. But I believe if play dictates, we will be a top contender.” Gone from last year’s team are two first-team All-County players in Ashley Borchers, who was also All-Ohio, and Olivia Monnin. Both were also first-team All-District 9. There are five players returning from last year’s County runner-up squad, including seniors Maggie Kearns and Camille Puthoff, and juniors Kylie Wilson, Taylor Daniel and Claire Sherman.

Bengals rout Colts 27-10 CINCINNATI (AP) — Andy Dalton’s 4 minutes on the field were so satisfying that he didn’t need more. Dalton led the Bengals to a touchdown in his only drive, and Josh Johnson threw for another in his bid to win the backup job on Thursday as Cincinnati ended the preseason with a 27-10 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. The Bengals (3-1) played most of their starters on offense and defense for one series only. Dalton’s brief appearance ended in Giovani Bernard’s 1-yard touchdown run. “We came out tonight and did what we wanted to do,” said Dalton, who completed his only pass in the seven-play drive that included an interference penalty. “We moved the ball well with the first offense, especially running the ball, and we scored a TD. “As far as the season, I feel we’re ready to go. We’ve played together well. I like the new elements we have.” Bernard is one of them, a second-round pick who can catch the ball as well as run with it. The Colts (2-2) rested most of their starters, including quarterback Andrew Luck. He and Dalton joked with each other on the field before the game. Matt Hasselbeck started for Indianapolis and led a 12-play drive against most of the Bengals’ starters. Adam Vinatieri kicked a 43-yard field goal to complete it. Hasselbeck played two series and went 5 of 9 for 49 yards. Vinatieri also was wide left on a 52-yard attempt. The Bengals’ starters moved the ball easily against a Colts defense of mostly backups during their one series on the field. All-Pro receiver A.J. Green, who missed the first three weeks of camp with a bruised knee, played the series and drew an interference penalty from Josh Gordy in the end zone, setting up Bernard’s 1-yard run. Receiver Brandon Tate made more of an impact as a kick returner. Tate’s 51-yard kickoff return set

up the touchdown. Tate also had a 75-yard punt return for a touchdown in the previous preseason game at Dallas. Johnson followed Dalton for the second game in a row and tried to secure the backup quarterback job with another run-and-pass performance. Johnson scrambled twice for 38 yards on a touchdown drive that culminated in his 3-yard pass to Marvin Jones. Johnson’s scrambling ability gave him an advantage over John Skelton in the competition to replace Bruce Gradkowski, who left as a free agent for Pittsburgh after last season. Johnson finished the first half and went 7 of 13 for 67 yards with

three sacks. He also had the two scrambles. Skelton, who was behind from the start of the competition because he’d never run a West Coast offense, played the second half and was 6 of 10 for 99 yards with one touchdown drive. Both teams had reserves get hurt. Colts inside linebacker Kavell Conner and offensive tackle Emmett Cleary left with ankle injuries. Receiver David Reed suffered a concussion. Cornerback Daxton Swanson pulled a hamstring. Bengals linebacker Emmanuel Lamur hurt his right shoulder in the first quarter and was taken off the field on a cart. Guard Mike Pollak suffered a knee injury.

SMS turf project passes halfway point Ken Barhorst and Dave Ross This season marks the 10th season of football at Sidney Memorial Stadium, and likely the final campaign on natural grass. The drive to install artificial turf is now past the halfway mark in terms of money raised for the project. The total cost of the project is $600,000, and upon completion, will likely lead to the stadium being a preferred venue for high school football playoff games. A public update on the efforts to install artificial turf at the stadium is expected by late September. The goal is a springtime completion in time for 2014 Sidney High School graduation. Heat index A game between two northern Kentucky high school teams, scheduled as part of the Skyline Chili Crosstown Showdown that is held every year in the Cincinnati area, has been moved from 1 p.m. to 11 a.m. because of the heat. The 1 p.m. heat index is expected to exceed the

Extra points Kentucky High School Athletic Association standards. With that in mind, we contacted Tim Stried of the Ohio High School Athletic Association, and the OHSAA does indeed have a standard of its own for football games in the heat. It’s included in the football manual and lists what precautions to take from under a 95-degree heat index to above 104. When the heat index is 95-to99, it says postponing practice to later in the day should be considered. Above 100, postpone practice and reduce time outdoors. And above 104, stop all outside activity, and all indoor activity if air conditioning is unavailable.

Obviously, his team dominated the final two periods. A week late Two weekends of high school football are usually complete by Labor Day in Ohio. That has changed this year to ensure that state championships are not played on Thanksgiving weekend. This Friday is opening night 2013. In most years the previous practice will remain in place.

An extra division Around 715 Ohio high schools play football. They had been evenly divided into six divisions until the advent of a seventh division this season. The goal of this revision is to minimize the enrollment disparity in the big school grouping. The top 64 enrollments will be Division I. Then the remaining 650 or so will be evenly divided to yield the final six categories. State champion disappears Back in 2004 Hardin Northern won the small school state title.

COLUMBUS — Judging by how often Ohio State’s coaches and veteran players have talked about some of the Buckeyes’ freshmen, they must be more advanced than most incoming freshmen. First-year players like wide receiver/running back Dontre Wilson and running back Ezekiel Ellliott apparently must have done some things right away in practice to make their older teammates notice them. “I’m excited to see what those guys do against somebody else because the first time we played against them we were kind of shocked and surprised at some of the things they could do. I can’t wait for the world to see what they can do and how shocked and surprised they’ll be,” junior linebacker Ryan Shazier said earlier this week. Practice is one thing, but the reality of playing in front of 106,000 fans in Saturday’s season opener against Buffalo is a different situation. So, how might the freshmen react? How did some of the current Buckeyes feel when they ran down the tunnel toward the field at Ohio Stadium? What advice would they offer? Senior offensive tackle Jack Mewhort said, “Running out of the tunnel for the first

time, I don’t think there’s any other feeling like it in the world. I’m excited for those guys. “I don’t think those guys (Wilson and Elliott) are short on confidence,” he said. “I think they’ll be all right.” Sophomore linebacker Joshua Perry expects the excitement level to be high for the freshmen. “Last year was crazy, I think this year I know a little bit more what to expect,” he said. Senior safety C.J. Barnett’s first run down the tunnel was exciting but it was different from what players like Wilson will experience. “When I was a freshman, I was waving a towel,” Barnett said. “He (Wilson) is going to have a pretty important role. The feeling is unexplainable. I’d just tell him to take a deep breath.” OSU coach Urban Meyer obviously wants to see how some of the highly regarded freshmen perform in a game situation, too. “They (Wilson and Elliott) weren’t here in spring practice. The kids that came in early, at least they had a chance to play in front of a big crowd for the spring game,” Meyer said. “I don’t, but I think coaches have a tendency to devalue what happens when you jog out of that tunnel, especially in a place

like Ohio Stadium. There will be a lot of deep breaths being taken.” Wilson will return the first kickoff OSU receives and Meyer joked that he will be monitoring his prized recruit’s respiration. “If you see me jog someone else out there, you know we are having a little hyperventilating issue,” he said. NOTES: • Center Corey Linsley, who has been battling a foot injury is “90 to 95 percent,” Meyer said on the Big Ten teleconference on Tuesday. • Playing night games is something Meyer likes, and not just because of an atmosphere in Ohio Stadium that he called “magical” at night. He says it helps recruiting because it is sometimes tough to get players to early games.

Key Stats

Jason Castro, Houston The All-Star catcher swung a torrid bat last week, hitting .529 with a 1.913 OPS. He reached base safely in all six games, including a walk on Sunday in his only appearance. He was 3-for-3 on Saturday and had six extrabase hits for the week.

Jarrod Parker, Oakland Parker was outstanding in his two starts last week, winning both, which represent Oakland’s last two victories. In 17.0 innings, Parker allowed 13 hits, three walks and whiffed 13 for a 0.94 WHIP and 1.06 ERA.

Carlos Ruiz, Philadelphia The Phillies’ backstop batted .440 with a 1.302 OPS last week. He hit two home runs and drove home six. He amassed eight knocks in his last three games, including three in the Phillies’ 18-inning loss on Saturday in which he caught the entire contest.

Post All-Star Batting Average (50 PA) 1. Jayson Werth, Washington 2. Scooter Gennett, Milwaukee 3. Khris Davis, Milwaukee 4. Andrew McCutchen, Pittsburgh 5. Will Venable, San Diego

Projected date to clinch: Sept. 13 at home vs. San Diego. Batting .341 with 11 homers, 48 runs over last eight games. Beginning to show signs of coming back down to earth. Giants and Dodgers hit just .167 off Red Sox last week. 13 straight games vs. Reds and Pirates. #makeorbreak Unsuccessful in last five stolen base attempts. Averaging 6.2 runs per game since Nelson Cruz suspension. Begin key 10-game West Coast road trip this weekend. Starting pitching continues to carry Reds. Next three opponents (Det./T.B./Tex.) may decide postseason fate. Last shot at Tigers this weekend. Won 11 of 15, within 3.5 games of wild card. Tough nine-game road trip to Boston, New York and Cleveland. 13 straight games vs. losing teams before next series with L.A. Still time to make a charge, but running out of games fast. Continue to tease fans just enough. 15 of last 30 games vs. teams currently in playoff position. Best below .500 team in American League. #uselessinfo Tyson Ross has been a very pleasant surprise. Batting just .246 over last 20 games. Two teams had more triples last week than Giants had homers. Won six of eight, with one of the losses in 18 innings. Could be key spoilers in all three AL divisional races. Matt Harvey injury news could be devastating. 16-year string of better records than Royals likely to end. Given up 29 runs over last nine games (8-1). May have found future stars in Scooter Gennett and Khris Davis. Five NL teams have worse run differential. Emergence of Christian Yelich and Marcell Ozuna is encouraging. Could be mathematically eliminated by week’s end.

Pennant Fever from A to Z burgh to shuffle its bullpen. So far, there have been few problems as Mark Melancon, Justin Wilson, Tony Watson and Vin Mazzaro have taken up the slack. But the Pirates have a much better shot at winning the NL Central with their closer healthy. JASON HEYWARD The Braves’ offense took off when Heyward was moved to the leadoff spot, and Atlanta has been one of the hottest teams in baseball since. But Heyward was hit in the face with a pitch on Aug. 21, causing him to be out until late in the season. His healthy return will be critical for the Braves once the playoffs begin. JOSE IGLESIAS In one of the most significant trades at the deadline, the Tigers acquired Iglesias from the Red Sox anticipating the suspension of shortstop Jhonny Peralta. Iglesias will not provide pop to match Peralta, but his defense is terrific. KENLEY JANSEN The Dodgers’ starting pitching has been terrific, and the lineup has been hitting on all cylinders. If there is an Achilles heel for Los Angeles, it would be the bullpen. Jansen closed just 78 percent of his opportunities last season, and allowed 33 percent of inherited runners to score. He’s been much better this season, however, closing 88 percent of his opportunities and allowing just 14 percent of inherited runners to cross the plate. CLAYTON KERSHAW The most dominant pitcher in the majors this season must continue to confound hitters in the playoffs. The lefty carries a career 5.87 ERA in the postseason, and he needs to be the shutdown ace in order for the Dodgers to win a series — or more. FRANCISCO LIRIANO Throughout his career, there has been little doubt as to Liriano’s immense talent. But his inconsistency has confounded pitching coaches over the

August 22, 1926 After three consecutive rainouts, Connie Mack of the Philadelphia A’s obtains a court injunction to play Chicago on Sunday. The A’s defeat the White Sox, 3-2, behind Lefty Grove. Sunday baseball would not be legalized in Philadelphia until 1934.

August 24, 1983 Infielder Lenn Sakata is called on as an emergency catcher for Baltimore. Three Toronto runners, apparently anxious to steal, are picked off first base by pitcher Tippy Martinez. Sakata’s homer in the bottom of the 10th wins it for the Orioles.

years. Right now, he’s the Pirates’ ace, but if he falters, the Pirates’ dream of the postseason could fade with him. WIL MYERS Myers has anchored the Rays’ lineup from the cleanup spot. Since early July, he’s batting .339, and when he drives in a run, the Rays are 17-5. When he doesn’t have an RBI, the team is 17-16 (in games he starts). JOE NATHAN When the Rangers were at their best earlier this season, the bullpen was terrific. The closer didn’t blow his first save until May 26 after he had successfully closed 16. He now has 37 saves in 39 chances. But he’s walked nine in his last 11 innings and is showing signs of wearing down. Texas doesn’t need a tired Nathan. DAVID ORTIZ Boston’s rebound from last season’s debacle has been remarkable. And Ortiz has been right in the middle of the turnaround. He leads the team in batting average, slugging, on-base percentage, home runs and RBIs. Yeah, he’s sort of a key to the Red Sox hopes. YASIEL PUIG Puig’s energy and all-out style are fun to watch, yet can be exasperating for his manager because of careless mistakes and spotty concentration. But when he’s on his game, he is a scary figure in the batter’s box. The Dodgers need him to be on. QUALITY STARTS While the official Quality Start statistic is among the most meaningless, it is critical that teams’ starting pitching get deep into games to save bullpen arms down the stretch. As we saw two years ago in Atlanta, tired bullpens can be disasters late in the season. REPLAY Anything baseball can do to ensure that the right calls are made is welcome. SUSPENSIONS The Rangers’ best run producer (at the

AP Images

Boston’s Clay Buchholz (left), and the Dodgers’ Yasiel Puig are key figures down the stretch.

He’s been to within a strike of winning the World Series. Twice in fact. Last season ended too soon for the Rangers’ manager, and he is determined to have his troops ready for October. Not letting the AL West title slip away like last season is the first order of business. XANDER BOGAERTS Boston called up its top prospect in mid-August, and he will be a key for the Red Sox. Shortstop Stephen Drew is batting under .250, and the Sox need an offensive spark from the position. YADI In St. Louis, fans know him by one name. The off-the-charts defensive catcher has proven to be one of the best hitters in the NL this season. Certain to receive serious MVP consideration, Yadier Molina is the most indispensable position player in the pennant race. The Cardinals can ill-afford for him to miss a beat. BEN ZOBRIST One of the best defensive second basemen in the big leagues, Zobrist has also made starts in left, right and short. He’s also hit in each of the first five spots in the batting order. He is the heart and soul of the Rays’ lineup.

time of his suspension), Nelson Cruz, is currently suspended, as is shortstop Jhonny Peralta of Detroit. TWINS I know the Twins’ elimination number is less than 20 with more than a month to play. But no team will have more say in more pennant races than the Twins. Minnesota has three games at Texas and seven against the A’s. The Rays visit Target Field for three, and the Twins will spend the final week hosting the Tigers (3) and the Indians (4). KOJI UEHARA Since becoming the team’s full-time closer in late June, Boston’s Uehara is 3-0 with 12 saves in 14 chances with an 0.32 ERA. He has 37 Ks and has allowed just 10 hits and two walks. With the health and stability questions surrounding Boston’s rotation, it’s critical that Uehara is sharp at the back end of the bullpen. JUSTIN VERLANDER Max Scherzer is getting most of the attention in Detroit (and rightfully so) with his 19-1 record. But the horse manager Jim Leyland will lean on in the postseason is Verlander. RON WASHINGTON He’s been there before. Twice in fact.

Detroit’s Max Scherzer won his 19th game of the season last week against only one loss. With six, maybe seven, more starts this season, it’s likely he’ll win No. 20. Only five pitchers since 1900 have won 20 or more games in a season and lost only three. Can you name the quintet?

Total bases for Will Venable of San Diego since the All-Star break. The total is the most in the majors. Wins for the Cubs in interleague play, the most in the National League, against just seven losses. With a record of 12-5, the Pirates are second and have three interleague games remaining at Texas. Home runs Miguel Cabrera needs to tie Chris Davis for the American League lead. Cabrera leads the circuit with 128 RBIs and a .360 batting average. Miggy’s batting average is 30 points better than his league-leading average from a year ago, and he is just 11 RBIs shy of his 2012 total. If Cabrera repeats as Triple Crown winner, he would be the first ever to do so. Extra-base hits for the Atlanta Braves in their last seven games. Stolen bases for Rajai Davis of Toronto. With only 256 at-bats, Davis could become just the eighth player in history to finish a season with 40 or more stolen bases in fewer than 300 at-bats. Otis Nixon and Alex Cole were the last men to do it, both in 1990. Dan Uggla’s batting average this season. He’s the only player with enough qualifying at-bats hitting below .210.

PEDRO ALVAREZ The second overall pick in 2008 is tied for the NL lead in homers and is fourth in RBIs. CLAY BUCHHOLZ The Boston righthander was 9-0 through his first 12 starts. But a neck strain and bursa sac inflammation have sidelined him since June 8. Boston’s chances increase dramatically with a healthy Buchholz in the rotation for the playoffs. MIGUEL CABRERA The best hitter on the planet in the middle of the lineup for the Tigers is the No. 1 factor in how far Detroit can advance this season. DRAMA (LACK OF) The only drama in the NL may be which of the three NL Central teams — the Pirates, Cardinals or Reds — will win the division and which two will be left to play in the wild-card game. EXPERIENCE There is very little postseason experience — and even less proven success — among NL starting pitchers likely to earn starts this October. A.J. Burnett of the Pirates has the most starts (7, all with the Yankees) and a 5.87 ERA. The Braves’ starters have one start in the postseason combined. The only two starters with success are Adam Wainwright of St. Louis, with four starts and four saves in the playoffs and a 2.48 ERA over 32.2 innings; and the Reds’ Mike Leake, who had a terrific start last season against the Giants. PRINCE FIELDER Opponents may choose to pitch around Cabrera, leaving Fielder as the focal point of Detroit’s lineup. The big man struggled at a .173 clip in the postseason last year with only one extra-base hit. JASON GRILLI The Pirates’ closer was almost perfect for the first three months of the season, but his injury has forced Pitts-

TRIVIA ANSWER: Preacher Roe of Brooklyn was the first to accomplish this with a 22-3 mark in 1951. The Yankees’ Ron Guidry was 25-3 in 1978, David Cone of the Mets was 20-3 in 1988, Roger Clemens of the Yankees went 20-3 in 2001 and Cliff Lee of the Indians was 22-3 in 2008.

Jose Fernandez, Miami Last week, the young righthander was 2-0 with a 0.85 WHIP and 0.69 ERA. In 13 innings, he gave up eight hits, three walks and struck out 16 as he continues to be one of the few bright spots in Miami this summer.

Hospital denies negligence in transplant case TOLEDO (AP) — The University of Toledo Medical Center denies a family’s allegations of medical negligence over a botched kidney transplant and wants the Ohio Court of Claims to dismiss the case, according to court filings. The hospital has said a nurse accidentally threw out a chilled, protective slush containing a viable kidney donated to a Toledo woman by her younger brother in August 2012. The 24-year-old woman, who was suffering from end-stage renal disease, later received a different kidney in Colorado, court records show. A complaint by the siblings and their family alleged the facility in northwest Ohio was negligent, causing physical and emotional suffering for the patients and emotional distress for their parents. The sister awoke in a recovery area with no incision and initially feared her brother had died in surgery, the complaint said. Her parents worried about their daughter’s prognosis and about their son losing a kidney in vain, it said. The complaint also said the parents and other siblings lost the pair’s comfort and companionship because of the alleged negligence. In documents filed Tuesday, the hospital denied the allegations and sought dismissal of the case. In a specific request to dismiss the counts involving the relatives’ alleged losses, it argued that Ohio law doesn’t provide for parents and siblings of an affected adult to recover damages for such losses.

Insurance payment absent after treasurer crash

Julie Carr Smyth Associated Press

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio Republican Josh Mandel’s federal campaign committee has yet to report receiving an insurance check for a vehicle disabled in a March wreck, an Associated Press review of campaign finance filings shows. The absence of a reported payment months after the accident involving the Ohio state treasurer and failed U.S. Senate candidate adds to questions surrounding the crash. It involved a vehicle owned by Mandel’s 2012 Senate campaign months after he’d lost his high-profile bid to unseat Democrat Sherrod Brown. Since using a Senate campaign vehicle to run for state office is prohibited, Mandel’s state treasurer campaign says it rented the SUV from the federal campaign. The rental payment came June 30, after the vehicle had been totaled. A state campaign representative questioned Thursday couldn’t immediately provide the status of any insurance claim. The State Highway Patrol reported the 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee was disabled and towed after the March 5 accident near Toledo. Mandel’s campaign has said it was totaled. A vehicle history report on the SUV indicates no activity since then. Quarterly campaign finance filings contain no insurance reimbursement as yet. The latest report covered the period from April 1 to June 30. That could mean the check had not yet been received, that a claim was submitted and denied, or that Mandel decided not to file a claim after the accident.
