Rallies against verdict being held Zimmerman cleared in unarmed youth’s killing

NEW YORK (AP) — From New York to California, outrage over the acquittal in George Zimmerman’s murder trial poured from street demonstrations and church pulpits Sunday as protesters called for justice for the unarmed youth he killed and Baseball game a great demanded federal civil charges against way to spend the day. rights him.

Protests were planned later Sunday in Boston, Detroit, Baltimore, San INSIDE Francisco and other cities over the Florida case, which unleashed a national debate over racial profiling, self-defense and

equal justice. At least one protest in California hours after the verdict late Saturday ended with vandalism.

President Barack Obama called the death of Trayvon Martin a tragedy for the country and urged calm reflection, a message shared by religious and civil rights leaders hoping to ensure peaceful demonstrations in the wake of a case that became an emotional flash point.

In Manhattan, congregants at Middle Collegiate Church were encouraged to wear hooded sweatshirts in the memory of

Martin, the black teenager who was wearing a hoodie the night he was shot to death in February 2012.

The Rev. Jacqueline Lewis, wearing a pink hoodie, urged peace and told her congregation that Martin Luther King Jr. “would have wanted us to conduct ourselves on the highest plane of dignity.”

But, she added, “we’re going to raise our voices against the root causes of this kind of tragedy.”

Alzheimer’s is now the nation’s sixth-leading cause of death, with 5.4 million people affected.

Even so, physicians can be slow to identify the disease in the elderly, despite the fact that old age is the greatest risk factor.

And doctors can be even more reluctant to diagnose people below the age of 65 who suffer from the rare, early-onset form of the illness. See Page 6.

Students to explore for artifacts For decades Johnston Farm & Indian Agency, 9845 North Hardin Road, has been taking visitors back in time, but next week the historic farm will be giving archaeology students a chance to dig, sift through and unearth historic artifacts. This week a class of archeology students and instructors from Hocking College, along with members of the Ohio Historical Society, will descend on the farm and visit the Pickawillany village to perform the dig.

It’s a life-long journey, a life-long commitment.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Proposed changes to Senate rules would either ease the way for President Barack Obama to assemble his secondterm team or permanently threaten the body’s deliberative style, the chamber’s top Democratic and Republican lawmaker said Sunday.

Democratic Leader Harry Reid and Republican Leader Mitch McConnell once again strongly disagreed during separate television segments on the eve of a rare closed-door summit that could reduce the Senate’s reputation as deliberative to the point of inaction.

Reid and McConnell — along with their rankand-file members — have been trading barbs over just what the proposed changes would be, both for Obama’s current slate of nominees who are awaiting confirmation and for future senators who prize their ability to delay action.

Democrats, who are the majority in the Senate, are pushing to erode the rights of minority Republicans to block confirmation of

Kolber wins scholarship, prepares for college life

By AMY MAXWELL

For Civitas Media tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com

TROY — As Troy High School class of 2013 graduate Alison Kolber prepares to leave for college at the end of the summer, she also is preparing for the next phase in her journey through life.

Kolber is a recipient of the “Life is a Journey — Don’t Stop Believing” Scholarship presented

by The Troy Foundation. Kolber was nominated for the scholarship by her grandparents, Fred and Janet Schoeneweis of Troy, who are familiar with the path Kolber has taken on her journey through life.

The scholarship was available to

those applicants who have someone in their life with a serious illness and have gone above and beyond the call of duty in caring for them.

“When I read the eligibility information about the scholarship in the newspaper, I immediately thought, ‘Well, that’s Alison,’” Janet recalled.

Kolber’s 17-year-old brother Stephen was diagnosed with autism at age 2.

“It was very tragic,” Fred said.

“Smiles, songs, laughter and words seemed to disappear.”

The Schoeneweis’ watched as everyday activities in Alison’s childhood would begin to change as well.

“Friends could not visit freely,”

Napolitano departure widens DHS leadership gap WASHINGTON (AP) — The leadership vacancy created by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano’s resignation is the latest and greatest blow to a department where one-third of the heads of key agencies and divisions have been filled with acting officials or remained vacant for months.

Napolitano’s departure, slated for September, will create the 15th hole in the department’s 45 leadership positions.

Napolitano’s chief of staff and the director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement are leaving this month. The deputy secretary, general counsel, heads of Customs and Border Protection,

privacy, legislative affairs, intelligence and analysis and more are filled with acting officials.

And other key positions, like the executive secretariat, inspector general and deputy undersecretary for cybersecurity remain vacant.

The pattern of putting acting officials in leadership positions at the Homeland Security Department sometimes replacing acting officials with other acting officials has been going on for months. This swath of vacancies raises questions about how a department depleted of permanent leadership could implement changes, particularly as Congress considers overhaul-

ing the nation’s immigration system.

“Her departure is a substantial addition to the growing list of unfilled key leadership positions within the department,” Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, said of Napolitano’s resignation. “The administration should move swiftly to fill the gaping holes in its management.”

The White House referred a request for comment to the Homeland Security Department, which did not respond.

The Homeland Security Department is comprised of agencies that protect the presi-

dent, respond to disasters, enforce immigration laws and secure air travel. Many of the unfilled leadership positions don’t require Senate confirmation.

Napolitano on Friday announced she would be leaving her post in early September to become the president of the University of California school systems. It was not immediately clear who the president wants to replace her. The acting undersecretary at the department is poised to take over as acting secretary unless the Senate confirms the president’s nominee

Ohio lawmaker wants tax break for home-schooling

CLEVELAND (AP) — A state lawmaker wants to provide a tax break to property owners who home-school their children.

Kris Jordan, • Pick 3 Midday: X-X-X a Republican from Ostrander northwest of • Pick 4 Evening: X-X-X-X Columbus, would reduce property taxes for • Pick 4 Midday: X-X-X-X parents who home-school their children by • Pick 5 Evening: X-X-X-X-X an amount equal to what they pay for school • Pick 5 Midday: X-X-X-X-X levies in their local districts.

According to The (Cleveland) Plain • Powerball: Dealer, Jordan said the legislation will help Estimated jackpot: $XXXX • Rolling Cash 5: X-XX-XX-XX-XX those who sacrifice to home-school a child.

One leading school group argues that the Estimated jackpot: $XXXX measure could lead to more tax breaks at the • Mega Millions: expense of public education.

Estimated jackpot: $XXXX

If passed, the measure would save homeschooling property owners in the Cleveland school district about $1,500 each year per $100,000 of home value. Suburban Shaker Heights homeschoolers would save about $2,800 per $100,000 of home value.

“That extra thousand or two will help them buy books, or help them take their kids to museums and give mom and dad a little extra money to educate their kids,” Jordan said.

The money saved by property owners would be money lost by local school districts.

Across the state, more than 10,000 chil-

dren are educated at home, according to the Ohio Department of Education. The numbers do not break down whether the students are taught in owner-occupied residences and would qualify the homeowners for the proposed tax break.

The Ohio School Boards Association opposes the legislation.

“It takes away from something we think every sector of the economy should pay for, their fair share of public education,” Jay Smith, a lobbyist for OSBA, told the newspaper. He said the measure could lead to tax breaks for others who keep their children out of public schools.

“I just wanted to come and be here with everybody in solidarity and talk and pray and sing about where we go from here,” she said.

At a youth service in Sanford, Fla., where the trial was held, teens wearing shirts displaying Martin’s picture wiped away tears during a sermon at the St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church.

Hours after the verdict, demonstrators gathered on U Street in Washington, D.C., chanting, “No justice, no peace.” One protester carried a sign that read, “Stop criminalizing black men.”

In Florida, about 200 demonstrators marched through downtown Tallahassee carrying signs that said “Racism is Not Dead” and “Who’s Next?”

In Chicago, black clergy members called for calm, with the Rev. Ira Acree of Greater St. John Bible Church saying the community should become “a united voice for peace” because it can’t control the verdict but it “can control our streets and communities.”

Seventy-three-year-old Maya Miller said the case reminded her of the 1955 slaying of Emmitt Till, a 14-year-old from Chicago who was murdered by a group of white men while visiting Mississippi. Till’s killing galvanized the civil rights movement.

Miller said she felt as if “nothing has changed in 58 years.”

The NAACP called for the opening of a civil rights case against Zimmerman in an online petition addressed to Attorney General Eric Holder.

Civil rights leaders, including the Revs. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, urged peace in the wake of the verdict. Jackson said the legal system

I think we really underestimate him. You can tell he wants to be able to communicate with us so bad, and one of the ways he tries to do so is by mimicking what we say back to us, it makes him feel like he is involved in a conversation with us; it is funny and fantastic at the same time,” she smiled.

Alison admits there was a bit of an internal struggle in her decision to leave her brother and her parents, Ozzie and Elaine, to go away to college.

“I know it will change the dynamic of things at home for all three of them, but my mom encouraged me to go away and to do the things I dream of doing,” Alison said.

“My mom is the strongest person I know, even with everything she has been through with my brother, I have never felt unloved or uncared for.”

Her grandparents are emotional about Alison’s departure as well but believe she is on the right path.

“Her studies will equip her to make a difference in the lives of others,” Janet said. “Her life has been one of demonstrated unselfish sacrifice and that is why we nominated her for the scholarship.”

Alison plans to take this “gift” with her on her journey as she will attend Geneva College in Beaver Falls, Pa., in the fall to study communication disorders with her ultimate goal of becoming a speech therapist.

“Alison is full of learned compassion for Stephen and for others,” Janet agreed. “She remains positive and supportive; she believes that her brother is ‘in there’ and has always remained kind and loving toward him, always touching his hair or kissing his cheek as she passes by him.”

Alison feels her experience with her brother has taught her not to judge others as well.

Alison spoke about the bond her and Stephen share.

“We both like the same music, so we are able to connect on that level,” she said. “He’s really a joyful person, always smiling.

“failed justice,” but violence isn’t the answer.

But not all the protesters heeded those calls.

In Oakland, Calif., some angry demonstrators broke windows, burned U.S. flags and started street fires. Some marchers also vandalized a police squad car and used spray paint to scrawl anti-police graffiti on roads and Alameda County’s Davidson courthouse.

Obama’s picks for posts on a labor rights board and a consumer protection bureau. Republicans previously stalled confirmation votes for Obama’s pick for labor secretary and chiefs of the Environmental Protection Agency and the ExportImport Bank, but last week GOP lawmakers stepped aside and said they would allow those nominees to move forward.

Reid said the changes were not about the appointment of judges or passing legislation. “This is allowing the people of America to have a president who can have his team,” he said.

McConnell called Democrats’ proposed changes contrary to Senate tradition, which typically requires 60 votes to end debate and move forward on nominations or legislation.

“I hope that we’ll come to our senses and not change the core of the Senate. We’ve never changed the rules of the Senate by breaking the rules of the Senate,” McConnell said.

SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — After a year and a half of living as a hermit, George Zimmerman emerged from a Florida courthouse a free man, cleared of all charges in the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

His brother said the former neighborhood watch volunteer was still processing the reality that he wouldn’t serve prison time for the killing, which Zimmerman, 29, has maintained was an act of self-defense. Late Saturday night, a jury found him not guilty of seconddegree murder and declined to convict him on a lesser charge of manslaughter.

However, with many critics angry over his acquittal, his freedom may be limited.

“He’s going to be looking over his shoulder the rest of his life,” Robert Zimmerman Jr. said during an interview on CNN. Demonstrators upset with the verdict protested mostly peacefully in Florida, Milwaukee, Washington, Atlanta and other cities overnight and into the early morning Sunday, but some broke windows and vandalized a police squad car in Oakland during protests in four California cities, authorities said. Additional demonstrations were scheduled across the country through Sunday evening.

Churches also made note of the verdict Sunday morning, with many leaders speaking about the case and urging peace in the aftermath. Some congregants wore hooded sweatshirts, as Martin had when he died, or shirts with the teen’s picture.

Martin’s killing in February 2012 unleashed debate across the U.S. over racial profiling, self-defense and equal justice. Protesters nationwide lashed out against police in the Orlando suburb of Sanford as it took 44 days for Zimmerman to be arrested. Many, including Martin’s parents, said Zimmerman had racially profiled the unarmed black teen. Zimmerman identifies himself as Hispanic.

been invited to a meeting Monday evening to seek a compromise that a handful of lawmakers are now exploring.

“We need to start talking to each other instead of at each other,” McConnell said.

It’s not clear a conversation would produce any agreement.

Reid calls the changes minor and narrow. McConnell calls them unprecedented and overbroad.

Reid says the proposal applies only to those tapped to serve in the administration, not for lifetime posts as judges. McConnell says it would fundamentally deny senators their prerogative to query potential officials.

Reid said the nominees would protect consumers, workers and the environment. McConnell and his GOP allies say the picks are payback to Obama’s political base.

“They’re driven by the unions,” said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah.

Countered Reid: “They have nothing against the qualifications.

They don’t like the jobs these people have.”

In particular, Republicans have

objected to a pair of union-backed members, Richard Griffin and Sharon Block, on the National Labor Relations Board, who were appointed by Obama when he said the Senate was in recess. An appeals court has ruled that Obama exceeded his authority, and the board’s actions since they took their seats are in legal limbo.

Republicans also have objected to Obama’s pick to lead the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, which was created as part of Wall Street overhaul legislation, which the GOP opposed. Obama nominated his pick, former Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray, more than two years ago.

“I think a president should have the right to put their team out there,” said Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.

“Why we can’t just do 51 votes is beyond me,” she added.

Reid and McConnell spoke during separate interviews with NBC’s “Meet the Press.” Hatch and Klobuchar were on ABC’s “This Week.”

DHS n Continued from page 1 for Homeland Security undersecretary before Napolitano leaves.

If that happens, the new undersecretary would assume the role of acting secretary until the president names a replacement.

“Sometimes, when major changes occur, there is a tendency to focus on the uncertainty of the future, perhaps at the expense of the urgency of the now,” the assistant secretary of policy at the Homeland Security Department, David Heyman, said Friday in an email to his staff following Napolitano’s announcement.

“This department has seamlessly and professionally negotiated a number of similar changes in the past, and I know a number of you all are veterans of such transitions.”

While some of these vacancies have little impact on daily operations around the country, the lack of permanent leadership at the top can have long term effects over policy, said Richard Skinner, the department’s former inspector general. There has been no permanent replacement for Skinner since he left two years ago.

Acting officials are always reluctant to make long-term policy calls, said James Ziglar, the last commissioner of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, which was absorbed into the Homeland Security Department in 2003.

“On the administration side, management side, everyone is looking at the person, saying, ‘You aren’t going to be around very long, so we’re going to just hold off doing stuff,’” Ziglar said.

Customs and Border Protection, which oversees the securing of the nation’s borders, has not had a Senate-confirmed leader since the George W. Bush administration. President Barack

Obama in 2010 exercised his ability to bypass Congress and appoint Alan Bersin as head of CBP. But that appointment was up at the end of 2011. The acting commissioner who replaced Bersin recently retired from government, only to be replaced by another acting commissioner.

Without a Senate-confirmed commissioner of CBP, it will be difficult to put in place and actual border strategy, said Ali Noorani, executive director of the National Immigration Forum.

The Democratic-controlled Senate has passed an ambitious and broad immigration bill, which includes doubling the size of the Border Patrol to more than 40,000 agents, offering a path to citizenship for immigrants in the country illegally and increasing the number of people who come to the United States as temporary workers. House Republicans have vowed to fight the bill, arguing that the border isn’t secure and that must come first.

“Whoever is in the position is always looking over their shoulder, wondering if they are going to have a job,” Noorani said.

The position of the department’s chief privacy officer is also filled by an acting official at a time when evaluating and protecting privacy will be critical for any new immigration laws likely to include deciding who among the millions of immigrants living the country illegally gets to stay.

The department’s second most senior position has been without a confirmed leader since Jane Holl Lute left in April. Rand Beers, who has been the acting deputy secretary, is poised to take over the department while the Senate considers Alejandro Mayorkas to fill the second top job permanently.

Diggin’ in:

BY WILL E SANDERS Staff Writer wsanders@civitasmedia.com

PIQUA — For decades Johnston Farm & Indian Agency, 9845 North Hardin Road, has been taking visitors back in time, but next week the historic farm will be giving archaeology students a chance to dig, sift through and unearth historic artifacts.

Next week a class of archeology students and instructors from Hocking College, along with members of the Ohio Historical Society, will descend on the farm and visit the Pickawillany village to perform the dig.

This is the fifth time students and instructors have visited and dug on the former site of Pickawillany, and in year’s past those archaeological digs have produced many historical artifacts, many of which are currently on display at the farm.

The dig is a part of an “ongoing research” that has taken place at Pickawillany in the last decade, said Site Manager Andy Hite.

Hite said the dig is a “win/win situation.”

“The students get life experience, hands-on experience excavating and working on a known historical site,” Hite said. “Eventually the artifacts come back here, so we get them on exhibit.”

On Thursday at 12:30 p.m. Hite is offering visitors the opportunity to actually visit the historical dig site.

Interested people can take a tour of the site and will be transported via the canal boat to the Pickawillany site. The boat will depart the canal dock at 12:30

Students to explore for historic artifacts p.m. Visitors will then spend an hour exploring the site and speaking with archaeologists.

Afterward, visitors can view the newly opened exhibit that contains artifacts that were the fruits of previous digs.

The cost is $8 for adults, $4 for students and free to Johnston Farm Friends Council and Ohio Historical Society members. Senior and AAA discounts will be honored.

“Archaeology can be tremendously exciting when you realize you are uncovering something that has not been seen for over 260 years,” Hite said.

Bill Pickard, one of the lead archaeologists who will be at the site, said the students will be doing “archaeology in reverse.”

“We know who was here, and what was happening in the village,” he said.

“We are hoping this project will help us learn more about what the village looked like.”

Presently, a fund-raising effort is underway at the historical farm, which is visited by more than 5,000 students each year, to expand the museum facility to include a 1,300-square-foot education center. The center would include a classroom, meeting room, program room and community gathering space with catering facilities.

The Johnston Farm Friends Council has launched a campaign to raise the remaining funds, partnering with the Piqua Community Foundation to be the fiscal agent for the campaign. To become a supporter of the project, contact the Piqua Community Foundation at (937) 615-9080 or Hite at (937) 7732522.

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP July 9 Press-Republican, Plattsburgh, N.Y., on Food Network star Paula Deen’s downfall since admitting she used a racial slur: Every now and then, something happens in the world outside politics that defines the sharp divide that exists in this nation.

The Paula Deen debacle is one of them.

It came to light recently that Deen used the N-word in her past, prompting a controversy that ended in her forced separation from just about everything that had made her a kitchen icon. …

At this newspaper, we have seen elements of the fray. Some readers wonder, for example, why the N-word is seen any differently across America from age-old slurs against other groups: Italians, Irish, Puerto Rican, Jewish — practically any group, in one way or another.

“I just accept that, as an Irishman, I’m going to be called names associated with my ancestry,” one man said. “I don’t take particular offense against it, and I don’t expect anyone to feel sheepish about it.”

However, there is a big difference between use of the N-word and just about all other insulting terms linked to national origin or religion. Few groups have undergone the long-term, repeated assaults and hatred that African-Americans have in this country — starting with brutal capture, importation, sale and exploitation in slavery. …

Deen has certainly tried her best to make amends, but it’s hard not to feel that her frantic apologies are compromised somewhat by the matter of her lost fortune.

Most of us just shake our heads when reflecting on anyone using racially offensive language. Those people certainly deserve censure. It is up to society to judge whether they also deserve forgiveness.

July 9 The Gazette, Montreal, on the train derailment in LacMegantic, Quebec, that killed at least 15 people and left dozens missing: After the Lac-Megantic railway disaster, it is likely that many of us will never again look at trains in quite the same way that we did before.

Railroads were instrumental in making Canada the great country it has become. Trains have been widely regarded as the safest, most comfortable and enjoyable mode of travel. The evocative sound of a train whistle is pleasing to most ears.

After Lac-Megantic, however, the sound of that whistle will also evoke images for many of last Saturday’s horrific firestorm and the devastation wreaked by the derailment of that runaway train. There will be a reflexive tendency among some people to associate the sound with impending danger.

It will take time and careful probing to determine what exactly went wrong with the train that devastated Lac-Megantic. Until that arduous process is completed, it is premature to start pointing fingers and making accusations as to what caused the wreck, tempting as it may be to do so.

The president of the Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway, owners of the ill-fated train, did neither his firm nor anyone else a service by suggesting that it was the fault of local firefighters who doused a blaze in one of the train’s engines, shortly before the crash, an intervention that he suggested may have inadvertently disabled the braking system. This is vigorously denied by the fire chief, who insists protocols laid down by the railway company were scrupulously followed. Only the investigation will be able to shed more light on the root cause, or causes.

What we can take from this disaster in the short term is the realization of a new collective desire to start looking much more closely at safety practices in the transport of oil and other hazardous materials, whether by rail, sea or pipeline. …

End costly auto-pilot raises in government Government should not set salary decisions on autopilot. State and local elected officials should avoid employee contract provisions that link pay with what other agencies offer. That practice mindlessly ratchets up pay with no regard for available resources, need or any other practical consideration.

The state announced last week that California Highway Patrol officers are getting a 5.9 percent pay raise this year. Four percent of the increase goes directly to higher salaries, while the remaining 1.9 percent goes to prefund health benefits for workers when they retire. The state estimates the pay hike will cost taxpayers $44.4 million this fiscal year for rank and file union members.

But the raise does not stem from any review of performance, pay scales, living expenses, inflation or any other factor. Instead, Highway Patrol officers will collect more money just because police elsewhere in California recently got raises. The CHP’s state contract ties officers’ salary levels to what police take home in Los Angeles County and the cities of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland and San Diego. Pay at those agencies has climbed, so Highway Patrol officers will receive more, too.

Basing state pay on unrelated local government decisions sets a bizarre benchmark. Why should the state, with vastly different resources, responsi-

bilities and priorities than local government, link its employees’ pay to whatever cities and counties agree to offer? Such an approach takes responsibility for state spending decisions out of legislators’ hands, and gives it to local governments — who are focused on their own considerations and not the state’s labor contracts. Abdicating control of spending to outside bodies hardly constitutes careful fiscal management. … The Highway Patrol contract is hardly the only public labor agreement that ties pay to what other agencies offer, of course. City and county labor pacts often link salaries to those in neighboring jurisdictions, a mechanism that continually ratchets up pay regardless of available finances. San Bernardino offers an especially egregious example: That city wrote its comparative salary formula into the city charter, which led to the city handing out nearly $1 million in raises to police and firefighters in March, even as the city sought bankruptcy protection.

Such automatic contract provisions are reckless policy, and state and local governments should reject labor agreements that include them. Voters elect officials to oversee public finances, not to cede control of fiscal decisions to outside groups and arbitrary formulas.

That’s where Emmett may have been one of his cooler-headed Till, to whom Trayvon Martin has often been compared, was brutally murdered for whis- moments.

The most poisonous interpretation of tling at a white woman.

Mentioning Martin in the same breath as Till Zimmerman’s conduct — that he sought out and assassinated a black kid for being a black kid — is an offense against history and common sense.

When the national controversy over Martin’s was never plausible. Assassins generally don’t killing first erupted, I thought it was wrong that call the police before tracking down targets. But Zimmerman wasn’t charged. I still think it was it looks positively ridiculous in light of all the foolhardy of Zimmerman to get out of his car and evidence suggesting that right before Zimmerman trail Martin, and that if he had had the sense to fired, Martin was beating Zimmerman, not the leave the matter at his call to the police, a tragedy other way around.

The prosecution had the odd habit of callcould have been avoided.

But that doesn’t make him a murderer. There was ing witnesses who contradicted its case against

Zimmerman. One of them, a neighbor named John Good, testified that Martin was mounted “MMA-style” on top of Zimmerman, drubbing him in a “ground-and-pound.” A forensic witness called by the defense, Vincent Di Maio, testified that the muzzle of Zimmerman’s gun was against Martin’s clothing, which in turn was several inches away from Martin’s body — facts consistent with Martin being on top of Zimmerman.

Accounts differ on who was crying out for help that night. Martin’s family says it was Martin; Zimmerman’s family says it was Zimmerman. But Zimmerman is the one who had the injuries consistent with getting beaten up and being in distress.

All of this suggests that Zimmerman fired in self-defense. At this point, if he is convicted of second-degree murder as charged, he will be the one failed by the Florida criminal-justice system — not Martin.

Justice, in the sense of a deliberate, lawful judgment consistent with the facts, was never the driving passion of the Zimmerman-haters. They wanted a racial morality play. If Trayvon Martin had been shot by another black person, no one would have cared. Al Sharpton wouldn’t have made him a cause. Lawrence O’Donnell wouldn’t have batted an eyelash. No one outside his immediate family and friends would have ever known his name.

Trayvon Martin’s shooting was an ideologically useful tragedy, and so the vultures did their worst.

Crocheters help area residents

PIQUA — The Salvation Army is looking for yarn donations to help make baby blankets and hats for the 2013 Christmas gift giveaway.

Yarn donations can be any size, length or color, but it is preferable that the colors are light and bright.

Two ladies, Harriet Hartley and Bev Puterbaugh spend time crocheting the yarn into baby blankets, during their free time.

They’ve known each other for 50 years.

“Last year, we made mostly hats, but then we were asked to make something more substantial,” said Hartley. “So we started making baby blankets.”

Hartley also makes cloth quilts and has made little pillows for Camp Courageous, which is a therapeutic camp for children and teens who have lost a loved one. The camp is hosted by Hospice of Miami County.

“I don’t like sitting around doing nothing, so I make baby blankets,” Puterbaugh said.

She usually crochets while watching

Cincinnati Reds games.

Most of the blankets are 100 stitches across, which is roughly 30 inches. Then the blankets are double stitched for 40 rows.

Puterbaugh recalls one donation that involved a dusty box filled with 61 crochet squares of multiple colors.

“We ended up making five baby blankets out of those squares,” Puterbaugh said. “We know how to make do with what we’ve got.”

So far an estimated 50 baby blankets have been made, but the goal is 100.

Puterbaugh spent some extra time naming the baby blankets she has made, because each blanket comes with its own story.

Some of the names include, Princess and the Pea, Little Boy Blue, and Freedom.

“The blankets are given to patrons of the Salvation Army,” Puterbaugh said.

Donations are accepted at The Salvation Army at 129 S. Wayne St., Piqua.

The Salvation Army can be reached at 773-7563, if you are unable to drop off your donation.

Historic landmark in NE Ohio back at the grind

AP Photo This July 9 photo shows David Siembida, right, handing a part of the beam cut in pieces to his workers Gary Kaszowski, left, and Joe Oates at the Mill Creek Park Lanterman’s Mill in Youngstown.

The historic landmark in northeast Ohio is heading back to work.

A main wooden beam has been replaced at the mill to get it back in working order.

“From an educational standpoint, it’s really important, especially for school groups, that they see the wheel turning, because it gives them a concrete, visual example of how things were done,” said Carol Vigorito, the park’s recreation and education manager.

Built in 1845 and 1846, the mill is the third one built

at Lanterman’s Falls on Mill Creek.

Lanterman’s Mill closed in 1888, and the park bought it four years later, using it as a ballroom, concession stand, bathhouse for swimmers and winter boat-storage facility. Lanterman’s Mill was entered on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

Cory Monteith, star of hit show ‘Glee,’ found dead VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Cory Monteith, the handsome young actor who shot to fame in the hit TV series “Glee” but was beset by addiction struggles so fierce that he once said he was lucky to be alive, was found dead in a hotel room, police said. He was 31.

The Canadian-born Monteith, who played star quarterback-turnedsinger Finn Hudson on the Fox TV series about a high school glee club, was found dead in his room on the 21st floor of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel on Vancouver’s waterfront at about noon Saturday, according to police.

Acting Vancouver Police Chief Doug LePard said there was no indication of foul play.

Vancouver police said Sunday that an autopsy is expected to take place today to determine the cause of death.

Monteith’s body was found by hotel staff who entered his room after he missed his checkout time, LePard said.

Monteith had checked into the hotel on July 6.

“We do not have a great deal of information as to cause of death,” said British Columbia Chief Coroner Lisa Lapointe.

She said further tests would be needed to determine how Monteith died.

“The exact nature of those examinations will depend on investigative findings within the next day or two as information is gathered from medical records and discussions with family take place,” she said.

LePard said Monteith had been out with people earlier and that those people are being interviewed.

Video and electronic records from the hotel indicate Monteith returned to his room by himself early Saturday morning, and he was believed to be alone when he died, LePard said.

Lapointe said he had been dead for several hours by the time his body was found.

Lea Michele, Monteith’s “Glee” co-star and reallife girlfriend, was asking for privacy after receiving news of his death, said her representative, Molly Kawachi of ID-PR .

“We ask that everyone kindly respect Lea’s privacy during this devastating time,” Kawachi said in in an email to The Associated Press.

Reality TV celebrity Kim Kardashian offered her condolences in a tweet: ” So sad. Prayers 4 his family. Praying 4 Lea too! Words can’t describe what they must be feeling.”

“Glee” cast members and other celebrities also took to Twitter to express their feelings.

“I have no words! My heart is broken,” DotMarie Jones, who plays football coach Shannon Beiste on “Glee,” said in a post on her Twitter account Saturday night.

She called Monteith a “hell of a friend” and an “amazing” man.

Lauren Potter, who plays Becky Jackson, the cheerleader with Down Syndrome on “Glee,” tweeted that she feels “totally heartbroken right now.”

“I love Cory so much this hurts my heart,” she wrote. “I hope my Glee family is OK right now.

I love them all. Cory was always so nice to me. I have so many good memories.”

“What an absolutely tragic loss of a very talented young man,” tweeted Zooey Deschanel, star of another Fox show, “New Girl.”

Fox and the producers of “Glee,” including 20th Century Fox Television,

called him an exceptional performer “and an even more exceptional person.

He was a true joy to work with and we will all miss him tremendously.”

“We are in shock and mourning this tragic loss,” his representatives at Viewpoint Public Relations in Los Angeles said in a statement.

In April, Monteith checked himself in to a treatment facility for “substance addiction” and asked for privacy as he took steps toward recovery, a representative said at the time.

Michele told People magazine at the time that she loved and supported him and was proud he was seeking help.

It was not Monteith’s first time in rehab. He received treatment when he was 19 and had previously talked about his addiction struggles, saying he had a serious problem and took just “anything and everything.”

He told Parade magazine in 2011 that he was “lucky to be alive.”

Monteith, who turned 31 on May 11, starred in “Glee” as a high school football player who puts his status and popularity at risk to join the glee club and its outcast members.

The show, with its pop music-based song-anddance numbers and highprofile guest stars including Gwyneth Paltrow, became an immediate hit and made stars of its relatively unknown cast.

The series, which debuted in 2009, is in its fourth season.

On his Twitter account, Monteith described himself as “tall, awkward, canadian, actor, drummer, person.”

In a 2010 interview with The Associated Press, Monteith was upbeat about life. He said that if “Glee” were to be canceled he would be OK. “I’ve never been afraid of working,” he said.

“I’ve never been afraid of auditioning for jobs.

Obviously, I’ve never been afraid of anonymity. I was happy (before ‘Glee’). I’m happy now. I guess I’m well adjusted.”

Monteith was among the “Glee” actors who remained series regulars as their characters graduated high school and moved on to other adventures.

According to his biography on Fox’s website, Monteith was born in Calgary, Alberta, and moved to Vancouver Island as a child. Before turning to acting, he held a variety of jobs including Wal-Mart (NYSE:WMT) greeter, school bus driver, roofer and cab driver.

“Thanks for always being kind Cory. You came a long way from hanging on the beaches in Vancouver with the gang pre-Glee,” tweeted Gerard Funk, an actor from Vancouver who joined the “Glee” cast last year.

Monteith’s TV credits included roles on the series “Kaya” and “Kyle XY” and guest appearances on “Smallville,” ”Supernatural,” ”Stargate,” ”Flash Gordon” and “Interns.”

His film credits included “Final Destination 3,” ”The Invisible,” ”Deck the Halls” and “Whisper.”

Monteith was an avid supporter of Project Limelight, a Vancouver charity that offers a theater and arts programs to at-risk youth. He dined with Project Limelight cofounder Maureen Webb at a Vancouver restaurant just days before his death.

In a Globe and Mail interview last year, Monteith credited Webb for suggesting that he enroll in acting classes when he was 19 years old and going down a “very dark path.”

He kept in touch with Webb and made a video to support Project Limelight when the charity was launched last year.

“I think kids really need a place to go and feel like they belong,” Monteith said in the video posted on Project Limelight’s website. “When I was a kid, I struggled a lot with who I was and where my life was going and what I was interested in. And I was fortunate to have the arts inspire me.”

YOUNGSTOWN (AP) — A historic landmark in northeast Ohio is heading back to work.

The main wooden beam has been replaced at Mill Creek Park’s Lanterman’s Mill in Youngstown to get it back in working order.

Mill Creek MetroParks development and marketing director Linda Kostka says the upgrade will allow the mill to resume grinding corn, wheat and buckwheat.

She tells The Youngstown Vindicator that without the water wheel turning the grindstone, there was gap in the experience of 19th century history and culture.

The grinding had stopped in January.

The white-oak beam supports the 4-ton wheel that powers the mill. It was hand-cut by the park forestry crew using steampowered antique machinery.

The beam weighs 540 pounds and is more than 6 feet long, 16 inches wide and 16 inches high.

Testing sensors as safety net for seniors at home WASHINGTON (AP) — It could mean no more having to check up on Mom or Dad every morning: Motion sensors on the wall and a monitor under the mattress one day might automatically alert you to early signs of trouble well before an elderly loved one gets sick or suffers a fall.

Research is growing with high-tech gadgets that promise new safety nets for seniors determined to live on their own for as long as possible.

“It’s insurance in case something should happen,” is how Bob Harrison, 85, describes the unobtrusive monitors being tested in his apartment at the TigerPlace retirement community in Columbia, Mo. Living at home — specialists call it aging in place — is what most people want for their later years. Americans 40 and older are just as worried about losing their independence as they are about losing their memory, according to a recent survey by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

Common-sense interventions like grab bars in bathrooms and taping down rugs to prevent tripping can make homes safer as seniors deal with chronic illnesses. Technology is the next frontier, and a far cry from those emergen-

cy-call buttons seniors sometimes wear to summon help.

Already, some companies are offering monitoring packages that place motion sensors on the front door, a favorite chair, even the refrigerator, and then send an alert to a family member if there’s too little activity over a certain period of time. Other gadgets can make pill bottles buzz when it’s time for a dose and text a caregiver if it’s not taken, or promise to switch off a stove burner that’s left on too long.

Researchers at the University of Missouri aim to go further: Their experiments show that certain automatic monitoring can spot changes — such as restlessness in bed or a drop in daytime activity — that occur 10 days to two weeks before a fall or a trip to the doctor or hospital.

“We were blown away that we could actually detect this,” said nursing professor Marilyn Rantz, an aging-in-place specialist who is leading the research.

She compares it to “a vital sign of my physical function.”

Why would the gadgets work? That monitor under the mattress can measure pulse and respiratory patterns to see if heart failure is worsening before someone realizes he or she is becoming short of breath. More nighttime

bathroom trips can indicate a brewing urinary tract infection.

A change in gait, such as starting to take shorter or slower steps, can signal increased risk for a fall. Basic motion sensors can’t detect that. So Rantz’s team adapted the Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Kinect 3-D camera, developed for video games, to measure subtle changes in walking. (Yes, it can distinguish visitors.)

The researchers installed the sensor package in apartments at the universityaffiliated TigerPlace community and in a Cedar Falls, Iowa, senior complex. On-site nurses received automatic emails about significant changes in residents’ activity. One study found that after a year, residents who agreed to be monitored were functioning better than an unmonitored control group, presumably because nurses intervened sooner at signs of trouble, Rantz said.

The bigger question is whether simply alerting a loved one, not a nurse, might also help. Now, with a new grant from the National Institutes of Health, Rantz will begin expanding the research to see how this monitoring works in different senior housing — and this time, participants can decide if they’d like a family member or friend to get those alerts, in addition to a nurse.

Rantz says embedding sensors in the home is important because too many older adults forget or don’t want to wear those older emergency-call buttons — including Rantz’s own mother, who lay helpless on her floor for eight hours after tripping and badly breaking a shoulder. Rantz said her mother never fully recovered, and six months later died.

“When we started this team, I said we are not going to make anybody wear anything or push any buttons, because my mother refused and I don’t think she’s any different than a lot of other people in this world,” Rantz said.

Monitoring raises important privacy questions, about just what is tracked and who has access to it, cautioned Jeff Makowka of AARP. To work, the high-tech approach has to be “less about, ‘We’re watching you, Grandma,’ but ‘Hey, Grandma, how come you didn’t make coffee this morning?’” he said.

Sensor prices are another hurdle, although Makowka said they’re dropping. Various kinds already on the market can run from about $70 to several hundred, plus monthly service plans.

Delayed alzheimer’s diagnosis can harm patients, famillies SHNS — Claire Schooley tried for several years to get doctors to diagnose what was going on with her husband, David, now 57.

He would ask her the same questions again and again, never remembering the answers. He would grow confused. Two years ago, on a trip to San Jose, Calif., with their kids, now ages 6 and 12, he drove 60 miles in the wrong direction from their hotel, insisting the whole time he knew where he was going.

Maybe his memory loss was the result of depression over two job losses, most recently in 2009, doctors told the Sacramento, Calif., couple.

Maybe it was stress.

“I’d see him sitting in front of the TV at home,” said Claire Schooley, 45, a network engineer. “He’d say he was taking a break, but he’d forgotten what he was doing or what room he was in.

“He never was like this before. I knew in my heart there was something wrong.”

Two days before

Thanksgiving 2012 — almost two years after he sought help from his primary care physician — David Schooley finally was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. For people with the degenerative brain disease, delays in diagnosis can exact a steep cost.

“Honestly, it’s a routine thing that families in general try to get the person seen by a knowledgeable physician for more than a year, even a couple of years,” said neurologist Dr. Charles DeCarli, director of the UC Davis Alzheimer’s Disease Center.

Without timely diagnosis, people with Alzheimer’s lose valuable months when medications can most effectively slow their memory loss. The delay in diagnosis robs families of the chance to enjoy their time together and make financial and legal plans for the future.

Alzheimer’s is now the nation’s sixth-leading cause of death, with 5.4 million people affected. Even so, physicians can be slow to identify the dis-

can see up to 40 patients a day in their practices, don’t have the time.

“It’s a challenge for primary care physicians,” he said. “I tend to see them adapting a number of strategies. When someone has memory complaints, they get a brain scan and get the patient on memory-enhancing drugs.

“The other strategy is to minimize the complaint until the situation gets more severe.”

Complicating the picture is the fact that dementia has other causes beyond Alzheimer’s: Pain medications, vitamin B12 deficiency, thyroid conditions, chemotherapy and some infections also can cause memory loss.

So can diabetes and vascular problems.

The average person with dementia comes into contact with the health care system four times more frequently than patients without dementia, said DeCarli.

Beyond the health consequences and frustration, families of people with early onset Alzheimer’s also deal with the fact that delayed diagnosis forestalls the process of applying for Social Security disability payments.

ease in the elderly, despite the fact that old age is the greatest risk factor. And doctors can be even more reluctant to diagnose people below the age of 65 who suffer from the rare, early-onset form of the illness.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that only 4 percent of Americans with the disease are younger than 65. But with the aging of the baby boomer generation — and the coming Alzheimer’s epidemic, projected at 14 million cases by 2050 — the hard numbers behind that younger-onset percentage continue to rise.

Typically, experts say, families end up frustrated in seeking help, because primary care physicians aren’t looking for dementia in people still in the prime of life.

“Many providers find it hard to believe that someone so young could have dementia or Alzheimer’s,” said Elizabeth Edgerly, the Alzheimer’s Association of Northern California’s chief program officer.

For many patients, diagnosis is delayed because a comprehensive assessment of dementia requires a detailed clinical history and neurological exam, said DeCarli. Most primary care physicians, who

Before it’s too late

For a good 10 years, Josh Hastings had annoying stomach problems.

Food just didn’t sit well in his system. It got so bad he went to a doctor, who recommended a colonoscopy.

“I never went,” said Hastings, now 37. “I found every excuse not to go. Didn’t feel like it, couldn’t get off from work, too busy.” Then he saw blood in his stool.

After two months of that he went for the screening test. “I knew I had to take care of it before things got serious,” Hastings said.

But things were already serious.

Hastings had just become a dad in 2008 when he found out he had Stage 3 colon cancer.

“The tumor had broken through the colon wall.

There were spots on my lymph nodes, too,” he said.

If Hastings had been tested 10 years earlier, when it was first recommended, doctors would have likely found a polyp — a small benign growth on the wall of the colon — removed it and sent Hastings on his way with a clean bill of health.

Instead, he dismissed persistent symptoms and ignored his wife’s periodic urging to get checked out by a doctor. He did what experts say many men do when it comes to their own health — nothing — for as long as he possibly could.

Dr. Carmella Sebastian is senior medical director for clinical client solutions at Florida Blue. For a decade, she has focused on talking with employers about health-care utilization.

“Women use services 1-1/2 times more than men. Always,” Sebastian said.

At least for men with insurance, it’s not about money. Even when insur-

ance covered preventive services, “that still didn’t get guys to go in,” she said.

So what is it with men not going to the doctor?

Experts offer many explanations for the behavior, most of them rooted in how little boys are taught to handle a scraped knee on the playground.

“From a very early age, boys — more than girls — are encouraged to be tough, to ignore pain, to shake off injuries and to keep going,” said Glenn Good, dean of the College of Education at the University of Florida in Gainesville.

His research has focused on the role of men in society and their use of healthcare services.

“It is pounded into boys’ psyches by peers and adult-to-child shaming that they must be viewed as tough, invulnerable and shouldn’t express emotions such as pain, loss and sadness.”

Male avoidance of doctors may go even deeper.

Men “are wired to examine the available evidence and then take reasoned action,” said Dr. Francisco Fernandez, professor and chairman of the department of psychiatry and behavioral neurosciences at University of South Florida Health in Tampa.

Research shows that psychological wiring along with social conditioning allow men to dismiss the possibility that something is physically or mentally wrong with them. “Emotions more than anything else motivate men to act,” Fernandez said. “You need to feel there’s a risk before you do something about it.” If you don’t acknowledge an illness or bothersome symptoms, then there’s no risk to your health and no need to take action.

Wave of bombings, shootings kill 38 in Iraq

AP Photo Security forces inspect the scene of a car bomb attack in Basra, 340 miles (550 kilometers) southeast of Baghdad, Iraq, Sunday. A wave of explosions tore through overwhelmingly Shiite cities south of Baghdad shortly before the Muslim faithful broke their Ramadan fasts, killing tens of people and wounding dozens, according to officials. The bombings are part of a sudden surge of violence that has brought Iraq to the brink of all-out sectarian conflict.

BAGHDAD (AP) — A wave of coordinated blasts that tore through overwhelmingly Shiite cities shortly before the breaking of the Ramadan fast and other attacks killed at least 38 in Iraq on Sunday, the latest in a surge of violence that is raising fears the country is sliding back toward full-scale sectarian fighting.

Insurgents have been pounding Iraq with bombings and other attacks for months in the country’s worst eruption of violence in half a decade.

The pace of the killing has picked up since the Muslim holy month Ramadan began Wednesday, with daily mass-casualty attacks marring what is meant to be a month of charity and peaceful reflection.

Violence in Iraq has risen to its deadliest level since 2008, with more

than 2,800 people killed since the start of April. The spike in bloodshed is growing increasingly reminiscent of the widespread sectarian killing that peaked in 2006 and 2007, when the country teetered on the brink of civil war.

Insurgents often increased attacks during Ramadan in the years following the 2003 U.S.-led invasion. Pious Muslims go without food, drink, smoking and sex in the daytime during the holy month, when feelings of spiritual devotion are high.

Sunday’s explosions struck shortly before the evening iftar meal that ends the daylong fast during Ramadan.

In the deadliest attack, at least eight people were killed and 15 were wounded in the southern port city of Basra when a car bomb and then a

follow-up blast went off near an office of a Shiite political party, according to two police officers. Basra is a major oil industry hub 550 kilometers (340 miles) southeast of Baghdad.

Another car bomb exploded among shops and take-away restaurants in central Kut, 160 kilometers (100 miles) southeast of Baghdad. The provincial deputy governor, Haidar Mohammed Jassim, said five people were killed and 35 wounded.

Police reported additional car bomb explosions that left four dead in a commercial street in the Shiite holy city of Karbala, five near an outdoor market in Nasiriyah and six near a Shiite mosque in Musayyib, and more than 60 wounded in total.

All of those attacks hit mostly Shiite communities.

Syrian troops advance against rebels in Damascus DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Government troops fired tank shells and artillery in heavy clashes between Syrian forces and rebels Sunday on the edge of Damascus, where the military has been pushing its offensive to retake key districts that have been in opposition hands for months.

The Syrian army has seized the momentum in the civil war over the past three months, wresting back territory lost to rebel forces and solidifying its hold over contested areas, particularly on the fringes of Damascus. Two of the embattled districts are Jobar and Qaboun, from which rebels frequently launch mortar rounds on the heart of the capital.

A Syrian military commander said forces loyal to President Bashar Assad have recaptured 60 percent of Jobar, south of Qaboun, and were trying to retake the rest. The commander talked to reporters Sunday during a military escorted tour of Jobar organized by the Information Ministry. His claim

could not be independently verified.

An Associated Press reporter on the tour saw widespread destruction that pointed to heavy fighting in the neighborhood. Marble tile factories were destroyed. Reporters made their way in the devastated area by climbing through holes knocked in walls because of warnings of rebel snipers in the area.

At least two bodies, apparently those of rebel gunmen, lay on the floor of a bunker described by the official as a “terrorist” hideout.

“The army is advancing rapidly in Jobar … the area will be secured in the next few days according to a wellstudied plan,” the commander said.

He declined to be named in line with regulations.

Jobar is near the road linking Damascus with its eastern suburbs known as Eastern Ghouta. Rebels have been using the road to transport weapons and other supplies to the capital, the seat of Assad’s power.

The last time Cassady Feasby sang on the stage in Fort Loramie he was all by himself, but Friday he brought along a few of his friends.

Just a senior in high school when he won the 1998 USA Karaoke Contest and opened for Montgomery Gentry at the 1998 Country Concert, Feasby returned to the big stage Friday night at Hickory Hill Lakes as a member of country music star Dierks Bentley’s band.

Needless to say, the experience was a bit different this time around. Feasby said it was an amazing experience to be back in front of the Country Concert crowd.

“The energy from the crowd was incredible. It made our job easy,” he said.

Although the Van Wert native has always been immersed in music — he started playing the drums at age 2 — Feasby said his first appearance in Fort Loramie was a huge step in his music career.

“I tied with two blond ladies and we both got to do two or three songs before Montgomery Gentry on Sunday afternoon,” he said, describing how he had entered a contest sponsored by radio station T102 at the Allen County Fair. “That was definitely the first time I was in front of an audience like this. It was like 2 o’clock in the afternoon, so it was a little bit tamer than Friday or Saturday night in a 10 o’clock slot. But it was always in my sites to do something like this and that was my first taste of actually getting to do it.”

Following his 1999 graduation from Crestview High School, Feasby played in a couple of bands and even served as a tour manager before an opportunity to join Bentley’s band materialized

in March of 2010.

Feasby said his wife, Sara Lederach, became a nanny for Bentley’s family in early 2010, and a few months later some personnel changes in the band opened another door for the 32-year-old bassist.

“At first, I thought maybe I could clean the bus or sell (merchandise) — anything to bump up to the next level,” he said.

Following the departure of Bentley’s lead guitar and bass players, Feasby joined the crew as its touring bass player. After some early jitters, Feasby said some advice from a former band mate helped put him at ease.

“The first week of shows was nerve wracking, (but) my friend told me ‘relax.

You’ve played these songs.

You guys have rehearsed and you know what you’re doing,’” he said.

That did the trick, and Feasby said he’s been having a blast ever since.

“In Dierks’ band, we’re all brothers,” he said. “Every show is completely different.”

Feasby, who lives Nashville with his wife and their 3-yearold daughter, soaked in some hometown applause mid-way through Friday’s show when Bentley introduced the band.

A giant photo of Feasby in his high school days appeared onscreen behind the band, which resulted in a loud round of cheers.

He said being able to come back to Fort Loramie has been one of the highlights of his career.

“This and playing the Coliseum in Fort Wayne, and we haven’t done that yet. That’s where I grew up and saw bands like Korn, Rob Zombie, John Michael Montgomery and Brooks and Dunn,” he said. “This brought it full circle.”

To find out where Feasby and Dierks Bentley’s band will be next, visit Bentley’s website at www.dierks.com.

Asiana flight attendants make news with bravery SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Before Asiana Flight 214 crash-landed in San Francisco, the last time the Korean airlines’ flight attendants made news it was over an effort by their union earlier this year to get the dress code updated so female attendants could wear trousers.

Now, with half of the 12-person cabin crew having suffered injuries in the accident and the remaining attendants receiving praise for displaying heroism during the emergency evacuation, the focus has shifted from their uniform looks to their heroic actions.

In the July 6 crash three members of the crew were ejected from the plane’s sheared off tail section while still strapped in their seats.

Those who were able, meanwhile, oversaw the emergency evacuation of nearly 300 passengers — using knives to slash seatbelts, calling pilots who slung axes to free two colleagues trapped by malfunctioning slides, fighting flames and bringing out frightened children.

“I wasn’t really thinking, but my body started carrying out the steps needed for an evacuation,” head attendant Lee Yoon-hye, 40, said during a news conference Sunday night before federal safety investigators instructed the airlines not to let the crew discuss the accident. “I was only thinking about rescuing the next passenger.”

Such conduct has given a measure of pride to members of a profession who often are recognized only for their appearance and customer service skills.

“In the face of tremendous adversity and obstacles, they did their job and evacuated an entire wide-bodied aircraft in a very short period of time,” said Veda Shook, international president of the Association of Flight Attendants and an Alaska Airlines (NYSE:ALK) flight attendant.

“It’s such a shining reflection, not just of the crew, but of the importance of flight attendants in their roles as first responders,” Shook said.

Along with training in first aid and firefighting, flight attendants every year are required to practice the moves needed to get passengers off a plane in 90 seconds or less, Shook said.

They go through timed trials, practicing skills that include shouting over pandemonium and engine noise, communicating with people frozen in fear and opening jammed doors and windows, she said. The goal is to make performing these tasks automatic.

“We have the muscle memory,” Shook said.

It’s a significant departure from the days when flight attendants were always women and known as stewardesses or air hostesses.

In that era decades ago, members of the cabin crew weren’t expected to play much of a role in emergencies.

Laura Brentlinger, who spent 31 years as a United Airlines flight attendant, recalled having no idea how much danger everyone was in during one of her first emergency landings in 1972.

She didn’t realize the severity of the situation until it was over and she saw the pilot’s face.

“In those days, it was like pat you on the head, just go back and keep the people nice and smile. That’s how far we’ve come, thank the Lord,” Brentlinger said. “We were just little Barbie dolls back there.”

The role of flight attendants in the U.S. expanded significantly in 1989 after Air Ontario Flight 1363 crashed after taking off in Canada. An investigation revealed that a flight attendant had seen ice on a wing but did not speak up, assuming the pilots knew and would not welcome the information from her.

Soccer kicks off at Wertz Stadium

PIQUA — English Premier League soccer action is coming to Wertz Stadium next week as Wigan Athletic, who are touring the states this summer, challenges the

Dayton Dutch Lions.

Whistle time for the game is set at 7 p.m. July 16 at Wertz Stadium at the Piqua High School in an international friendly. Tickets can be purchased at www.dutchlionsfc.com. Prices to attend the game range from $7 to $99.

Football Club has been delighting fans all season with “exciting play” and “unprecedented success,” said Koen Driessen, the club’s business manager.

And now, area soccer enthusiasts in the Miami Valley have a chance to get in on the action.

Club President Mike Mossel said the game will be an exciting one and encouraged fans to come out for a chance to watch the action.

Cincinnati Reds right fielder Jay Bruce follows through for a two-run home run as Atlanta Braves catcher Gerald Laird, left, looks on in the third inning Sunday in Atlanta.

Big booster: ATLANTA (AP) — Jay Bruce says the Reds have had an impressive first half, even if they are in third place in the NL Central.

A big showing by the Reds’ offense provided the perfect confidence boost before the All-Star break.

Bruce hit a two-run homer in Cincinnati’s fourrun third inning, Shin-Soo Choo also homered, and the Reds beat Julio Teheran and the Atlanta Braves 8-4 on Sunday.

Bruce led the Reds with three hits. Brandon Phillips had a two-run double in the ninth, and Choo had two hits and scored three runs as the Reds split the four-game series.

“We’ve had a good first half,” Bruce said.

“Obviously, we’re not in first place and that’s where we want to be, but we’ve played well, especially with the injuries we’ve had. To still be right here in the hunt, we’re in good shape right now.

“We’re looking forward to the second half.”

The Reds began the day five games behind St. Louis and Pittsburgh in the division. They gained a game on the Pirates, who lost to the Mets. The Cardinals played the Cubs on Sunday night.

“It makes for a better All-Star break,” Reds

Bruce’s HR powers Reds past Braves manager Dusty Baker said. “We had a chance to really take three out of four or maybe even sweep them but we’ll take what we got.”

Bruce’s homer was his first since he hit two on June 22. He had gone 18 games without one.

“I really don’t pay attention to that stuff,” he said. “I started off July a little slow but slowly got heated up a little bit. It’s a long month.”

Reds right-hander Logan Ondrusek (3-0) threw two scoreless innings as the second reliever behind Tony Cingrani, who lasted only four innings.

Teheran (7-5) allowed five runs, seven hits and two walks in 5 1-3 innings.

Andrelton Simmons and Dan Uggla hit homers for Atlanta.

Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman was held out because of a jammed left thumb that will prevent him from playing in the All-Star game on Tuesday. The Braves had outfielders Jason Heyward, Justin Upton, B.J. Upton and Freeman sustain injuries in the series.

The team placed B.J. Upton on the 15-day disabled list before the game with a right adductor muscle strain.

Comeback complete: LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Stuck in a hospital bed, Brian Vickers wanted to live another day.

Once he recovered, he hungered for a competitive ride.

And once he landed a solid seat, well, Vickers simply had to win.

Even when life tossed obstacles in Vickers’ path, his determined spirit never waned. After four years of health scares and unemployment put his promising career in doubt, Vickers kept pushing toward the finish line. He got there Sunday as the surprise winner at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

“Coming here and sitting in Victory Lane, just makes it one of the most special events in my life,” Vickers said.

He had plenty of drivers in the series pulling for this comeback.

One by one, they saluted Vickers with a wave from the

Staff Reports

LEON, Ind. — Seven proved to be a lucky number for Troy.

Post 43 swept a doubleheader Sunday in Leon, Ind., putting together big seventh innings in both games, scoring seven total runs in both games and winning 7-0 and 7-2 to pick up even more steam heading into this week’s District Legion Tournament.

Post 43 is now 36-10 on the season.

“We hit the ball pretty well, our pitchers threw well,” Troy Post 43 coach Frosty Brown said. “We did a lot of things well.”

Austin Baumgardner and Jimmy Pelphrey combined on a three-hit shutout in the first game, with Baumgardner striking out five in six innings of work.

Colton Nealeigh was 2 for 4 with a double, an RBI and three runs scored, Dylan Cascaden was 3 for 4 with two RBIs, Nick Antonides was 2 for 3 with two RBIs, Evan Bowling doubled and Garrett Mitchell drove in a run as Troy put the game away with three runs in the seventh inning.

In the second game, Post 43 scored three in the top of the second, but it didn’t find the plate again until game’s end.

Meanwhile, Leon plated single runs in the third and sixth innings to cut the lead to 3-2 — but then Troy scored four in the seventh to ice the game.

Ryan Lavy was 2 for 3 with an RBI, Mitchell was 2 for 4 with an RBI — which came in the decisive seventh — and Reid Ferrell (two RBIs) and Trenton Wood (one RBI) both knocked home runs in the seventh, too.

Post 43 hosts Lima Tuesday night at Duke Park to kick off the District tournament, while Piqua and Sidney meet at Troy High School’s Market Street Field the same night in the first round.

Close friend Jimmie Johnson, a five-time Cup champion, pumped his fist out the window in pure happiness as if he’d won a sixth title.

Post 43 sweeps St. Leon

Vickers did all he could to savor the unforgettable scene.

“When you have so much love and support around you,” Vickers said, “it makes all the difference in the world.”

Vickers even tried to celebrate with the fans, though

the New Hampshire gates wouldn’t open to the grandstands. That’s OK. He had a pretty big mob waiting for him — even his fiancee, who had left the track to catch a ride home, only to reverse course and make it back just in time to greet him.

About the only key cog missing was owner Michael Waltrip. Waltrip and coowner Rob Kauffman were in Europe this weekend for the 20th annual Goodwood Festival of Speed in England.

Froome wins stage, extends lead in Tour

MONT VENTOUX, France (AP) — British rider Chris Froome showed why he remains the overwhelming Tour de France favorite by winning Sunday’s grueling 15th stage up to Mont Ventoux to extend his lead over main rival Alberto Contador.

Froome attacked about two-thirds of the way up the mammoth 13-mile Ventoux, and his acceleration was too much for two-time former champion Contador. The Spaniard dropped back to sixth and finished about 1 minute, 40 seconds behind as tens of thousands of people crammed the roadside on Bastille Day — France’s National Day. “This is massive. Everyone wanted to win this stage today, on Bastille Day, being on top of Mont Ventoux,” Froome said. “It really was an epic stage today.”

The win means Froome effectively made up the time he lost on Friday’s sprint stage, when Contador caught him with a surprise attack. He leads Dutchman Bauke Mollema by 4 minutes, 14 seconds and Contador by 4:25.

“It wasn’t really about sending (Contador) a message, but I’m obviously going to take as much time as I can,” Froome said. “I’m really happy to have this advantage now.”

Colombian Nairo Quintana was second, 29 seconds behind, and Mikel Nieve of Spain was third, 1:23 behind.

“My objective today was to take a bit of time in the general classification, but I didn’t think I could win the stage,” Froome said. “I thought Quintana would win it. But his legs started to go in the last two kilometers.”

The longest stage of the race took riders over 151 miles from Givors in the winemaking Rhone Valley and ended in the Provence region.

Ventoux is one of the most famed climbs in the Tour’s 110-year history.

Britain’s Tom Simpson collapsed and died on it during the 1967 Tour.

Froome raised his right arm in the air when he crossed the line for his second stage win of the race after winning a mountain stage in the Pyrenees on Stage 8 with a similarly decimating attack.

“It was incredible today, incredible.

This is the biggest victory of my career,” Froome said. “I didn’t imagine this, this climb is so historical. It means so much

to this race, especially being the 100th edition.”

Froome said he needed “five or 10 minutes on the oxygen” mask after the stage.

Froome’s Sky team manager Dave Brailsford hailed his rider as “above his competitors,” adding that “every time it’s been man against man, Chris has shown he’s up to the challenge.”

It is the first Tour since Lance Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour titles (1999-2005) for serial doping.

Froome has twice been asked during the race if he is racing clean and answered in the affirmative.

He was not asked after Sunday’s stage, but Brailsford said “we have a great performance and 10 minutes later I jump for joy like this, and then 10 minutes later I guarantee you I’ll be answering all these questions and allegations about doping for the next few days.”

A nine-man breakaway group, including sprint champion Peter Sagan and French veteran Sylvain Chavanel, led early in the race. Sagan picked up more valuable points in his quest to win the green jersey for the second straight year, extending his already massive lead over Brit Mark Cavendish, the 2011 Tour sprint champion.

Reputed to be one of cycling’s showmen, Sagan lifted his front wheel and did a wheelie, followed by a salute to the crowd in a rare moment of frivolity on an otherwise difficult day.

The small group of front-runners split open on Ventoux, leaving Chavanel alone in front, and with about 9 miles of climbing still to go. Froome, meanwhile, only had two Sky teammates — Australian Richie Porte and Britain’s Peter Kennaugh — to help him.

Andy Schleck, the 2010 Tour champion, was dropped straight away while the 36-year-old Cadel Evans, who won the 2011 Tour, also faded, as did Chavenel.

“It was a terrible day for me,” Evans said.

Quintana didn’t have enough at the end of the race.

“I needed more strength, but I couldn’t find it,” Quintana said. “I’d already made an enormous effort.”

With about 6 miles to go, Contador still had three teammates with him but Froome would lose them all.

“We lost a lot of key players but the guys that stepped in did a terrific job for us,” Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “You felt good that we had a chance. Even today. We hit the ball hard.

“Anytime your back is up against it like we were and guys respond, you feel good about your club.”

Atlanta catcher Brian McCann was named to replace Freeman on the NL All-Star team.

The Reds led 5-3 before scoring three times in the ninth off Anthony Varvaro.

Phillips’ double drove in Choo and Joey Votto, and Phillips scored on Todd Frazier’s single.

Control problems pushed up Cingrani’s pitch count. The rookie left-hander, who threw 96 pitches, allowed two runs — one earned — four hits and three walks in four innings. It matched his shortest start.

Cingrani was frustrated early in the game by home plate umpire Sam Holbrook’s strike zone.

“They were calling them low, and Tony and (catcher) Devin (Mesoraco) thought they were strikes,” Baker said.

“Sometimes you get tested, especially when you’re a rookie and you’re not going to get a lot of the near-strikes.

Sam was consistent and that’s all you can ask the umpire to do.”

Cingrani gave up a run in the second but stranded three runners. Reed Johnson singled with two outs and scored on Gerald Laird’s double.

Cingrani loaded the bases with two walks, but ended the inning by snagging Jose Constanza’s liner.

Atlanta’s missed opportunity for a bigger inning set the stage for the Reds’ four-run third. Cingrani led off with a bunt single, and Choo also singled before Votto’s double and Brandon Phillips’ groundout each drove in a run.

Bruce’s 19th homer pushed the lead to 4-1.

The Braves added an unearned run in the third. Simmons walked, moved to third on Chris Johnson’s single and scored when Reds shortstop Zack Cozart caught a liner by Evan Gattis and then threw wildly to first base in an attempt for a double play.

Choo led off the fifth with his 13th homer.

Gattis was 0-for-4 in his return from the disabled list after playing only two games in his rehabilitation stint with Triple-A Gwinnett.

Gattis was the fill-in starter for Freeman, who jammed his thumb Saturday night. Gattis had been out since June 18 because of a right oblique strain.

Constanza made a running catch of Choo’s drive to left field in the first inning and made another leaping grab of a drive by Bruce in front of the wall in the ninth.

Reds closer Aroldis Chapman gave up Simmons’ eighth homer in the ninth.

great day for that,” MWR general manager Ty Norris said.

“He’s been our focus. We would love to have him in that car.”

Vickers snapped a 75-race winless streak and hadn’t won since the August 2009 race at Michigan. He won his first career Cup race in August 2006 at Talladega Superspeedway.

Vickers made the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship in 2009, only to be sidelined most of the next season with blood clots. He had two procedures to close a hole in his heart and insert a stent into a vein in his left leg.

After Red Bull Racing shut down after the 2011 season, Vickers hooked on with a limited ride with MWR. He has been driving full-time this season in the Nationwide Series for Joe Gibbs Racing.

With his first checkered flag since his return, he is done looking back.

“That’s why I came back,” he said.

“For what’s to be, not what’s happened.”

Kyle Busch was second and Jeff

Burton third. Pole winner Brad Keselowski was fourth and Aric Almirola fifth.

Jimmie Johnson brushed off his 43rd-place start to finish sixth. Tony Stewart was running inside the top 10 at the final caution until he ran out of fuel and plummeted to 26th.

“It’s hard to calculate how much we are saving on the cautions,” Stewart said. “We thought we were about three-quarters of a lap to the good before that last caution. Obviously, we didn’t save as much as I thought we would.”

Busch and Vickers finished 1-2 in Saturday’s Nationwide Series race.

Both drivers had to stretch their fuel, and Vickers ran out just as he crossed the finish line.

He was in a similar spot again down the stretch a race later. He had just enough to zip past Stewart with 13 laps left and then pull away in the green-white-checkered finish. He didn’t run out until it was time for the celebratory burnout.

Dayton region,” Mossel said. “Besides our own professional team that people can watch, it is games like this that gives local soccer fans a chance to see toplevel players live in action.”

Wigan, founded in 1932, is in the English Premier League and has captured several championships, most recently and notably their prestigious 2013 FA CUP, which they earned by beating Manchester City. That win came in a dramatic game-winning goal that came off the foot of Ben Watson in injury time.

The Dayton Dutch Lions, 7-3-5 in USL PRO, are in contention to make the playoffs for the first time in club history this year, Driessen said, and are excited to get the chance to play against Wigan.

Mossel said the game will provide a “fantastic atmosphere for both players, staff and also our fans.”

He added that he would like to bring this type of game to the community every year. “(We) hope the game against Wigan will be a great way to start this,” he said.

Gay, other big names fail drug tests

By The Associated Press

The list reads like a Who’s Who among the world’s best sprinters: Jamaican Asafa Powell, the former world-record holder at 100 meters.

American champion Tyson Gay, who went out of his way to promote himself as an anti-drug athlete.

Jamaican Sherone Simpson, who has a gold and two silver Olympic medals to her credit.

Word came Sunday that all three had failed drug tests. “A sad day,” one former track official called it — and certainly a day that punctured the myth that the oft-troubled sport has cleaned up its act.

“I am not now — nor have I ever been — a cheat,” Powell said in a message released through his Twitter account.

The 30-year-old Powell, whose 100-meter record of 9.74 stood until Usain Bolt beat it in 2008, was calling for an investigation as to how a stimulant called oxilofrine entered his system and caused a positive test at Jamaica’s national championships in June.

Simpson, who tested positive for the same stimulant, said she “would not intentionally take an illegal substance of any form into my system.”

Gay, the American-record holder in the 100, was more contrite, though he wasn’t taking full responsibility.

“I don’t have a sabotage story.

I don’t have any lies. I don’t have anything to say to make this seem like it was a mistake or it was on USADA’s hands, someone playing games,” said Gay, who fought back sobs in a telephone interview. “I don’t have any of those stories. I basically put my trust in someone and I was let down.”

Gay, who won the 100 and 200 meters at U.S. nationals last month, said he would pull out of the world championships.

The 30-year-old, who won the world championship in the 100, 200 and 4x100 relay in 2007, took part in the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency’s “My Victory” program — in which athletes volunteer for enhanced testing to prove they’re clean — and his results never raised red flags. Until, that is, an out-of-competition test May 16, where results came back positive for a banned substance, the identity of which neither he nor USADA CEO Travis Tygart would reveal.

Gay said his “B” sample will be tested soon, possibly as early as this week.

Generally, first-time offenders are hit with two-year bans, though reduced penalties are sometimes given if there are extenuating circumstances, which both Gay and his coach, Lance Brauman, said there were.

“He mentioned that he (trust-

Gay

ed) someone and that person was untrustworthy at the end the day,” Brauman told The Associated Press in a phone interview. “Maybe I’m naive, but I believe him.”

Max Siegel, the CEO of USA Track and Field, said in a statement: “It is not the news anyone wanted to hear, at any time, about any athlete.”

He said he looked to USADA to handle the case “appropriately.”

Siegel’s predecessor at USATF, Doug Logan, called it “a sad day.”

“But I don’t see anything on the horizon that says this will be abated in any way,” Logan told AP. The former CEO recently wrote a column arguing the fight against performance-enhancing drugs in sports should be ceded because, in his view, anti-doping rules make very little headway against a prob-

lem that never seems to disappear.

He said he wasn’t surprised when he heard about Sunday’s onslaught of failed tests and didn’t put much credence into the excuses and apologies from those who came up positive.

“Over the course of time, culture has bred certain defenses,” Logan said. “The reality is, people are using substances to reengineer their bodies or heal better. That’s reality.”

Four-time Olympic medalist and sprint analyst Ato Boldon also called it a “difficult day because track and field fans are left not knowing what to believe.”

“Everyone has that favorite, that one guy, ‘Hey, this is the guy I’ve always been a supporter of his,’” Boldon said. “Asafa and Tyson are certainly two people who a lot of track fans have loved and admired for a long time. Unfortunately, they failed drug tests.”

While Gay’s case gets sorted out on U.S. turf, the positives recorded

by Powell and Simpson are part of a bigger doping crisis hitting Jamaica, the home of Bolt and the country that has won 28 medals over the last three Olympics.

In Sunday’s editions, The Gleaner newspaper of Jamaica reported that five athletes had tested positive.

Paul Doyle, the agent who represents Powell and Simpson, confirmed to the AP that his sprinters were among them. Shortly after

Doyle’s confirmation, Powell and Simpson each released statements acknowledging the positive tests.

The news stirred up angst on the island, where success on the track is a point of pride but the rigor of the country’s anti-doping program is under constant scrutiny.

“This does not auger well for track and field globally,” said Rashalee Mitchell, a 29-year-old assistant social sciences lecturer at Jamaica’s campus of the University of the West Indies. “It is fast serving to taint … our proud and long-standing reputation of producing strong, excellent, raw, homegrown talent that has excelled on the world stage without any drug-related enhancement.”

The news came a month after another Jamaican Olympic gold medalist, Veronica Campbell-Brown, tested positive for a banned diuretic.

Campbell-Brown is being suspended while a disciplinary panel reviews her case. Track’s governing body said the case appeared to involve a “lesser” offense, which could mean a reduced sentence for the 200-meter champion at the 2004 and 2008 Olympics.

Shortly after news of CampbellBrown’s positives, her agent, Claude Bryan, said his client is not a cheat and she does not accept “guilt of willfully taking a banned substance.”

Making your very own

Time Capsule!

Contrary to popular imagination, time capsules do not have to be buried. A good time capsule-one thta successfully preserves its contents before it is next opened after a planned period of time--requires only: A good storage container.

A good place to keep the storage container.

Careful consideration of what to include in the container.

Choosing a Good Location for the Container A cool (room temperature or below), relatively dry (about 35% relative humidity), clean, and stable environment (avoid attics. basements, and other locations with high risk of leaks and environmental extremes).

Minimal exposure to all kinds of light; no exposure to direct or intense light Distance from radiators and vents

Choosing a Good Storage Container

Choose a tightly closed container that will keep out light, dust and other air-borne pollutants, and water. The container materials should be chemically inert, e.g.” uncoated polyethylene (PET or PETE, recycle code 1) jar with a screw-top lid of the same material’ uncoated high-density polyethylene (HDPE, code 2) or polypropylene (PP, code 5); aluminum or stainless steel cans with matching screw-top lid; lignin-and acid-free cardstock boxes with snug lids (will keep out minimal, incidental water only).

Content Considerations Analog items are no machine-dependent, but digital items are; include the machine required for digital items and instructions for use Materials that have already withstood the test of time have proven to be long lasting; the longterm behavior of new materials is more unknown. Safer more traditional choices include: items printed or written with carbon-based ink on acid-and lignin-free, good quality paper; wellprocessed black-and-white photographs; non-corroding metals;textiles made of non-plastic fibers; glass; stone;ceramic;items made of uncoated PET, HOPE, or PP plastics. Further minimize the risk of unexpected chemical interactions among the time capsule contents by packaging each item: put each item or group of like items in acid- and lignin-free paper envelopes, folders, or boxes; uncoated PET zipper bags; or glass or PET, HDPE, or PP plastic vials with screw-top lids. Avoid including food items and plants or other living things. Include a list of the contents in the time capsule and why they were included. Minimize the risk of mechanical damage: put heaviest items at the bottom; prevent items from rattling around; ensure the weight of the contents within the time capsule container is evenly distributed; indicated on the outside of the container which side is up.
