4-H Fun, Food and Friends Miami County 4-H Clubs host annual BBQ at fairgrounds on Saturday

By Melanie Yingst

Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

MIAMI COUNTY — Want to have a bunch of friends and family over for a fun, festive outdoor barbecue without all the work but with all the fun?

Then leave the cooking to the professionals and head out to the Miami County Fairgrounds for its annual 4-H barbecue

fundraiser beginning at 4 p.m. on Saturday.

The traditional 4-H barbecue is the only event which raises funds for awards such as the 10 year-plaques and other awards for each one of the county’s 4-H members, according to 2013’s 4-H barbecue coordinator Craig Lichtenberg.

“It started out as an ice cream social years and years ago and has been

a tradition for more than 50 years,” Lichtenberg said. “All the 4-H clubs help out each year at the barbecue and all the proceeds go to help with 4-H plaques and awards for the kids.”

A c c o rd i n g to Lichtenberg, the annual 4-H barbecue is the only fundraiser which benefits all Miami County 4-H club members.

“All of the proceeds

stays in the county,” Lichtenberg said.”It helps with Cloverbud Camp and supplies for the county fair. All the money we raise goes directly back to the kids.”

This year, the menu includes Caven’s Meats’ beef and pork barbecue for sandwiches prepared

by Chuck Lyons Catering.

Dessert also includes ice cream, pies and cakes.

Brothers Joel and Aden Burns, background, gather sweet corn and melons for a customer at their produce stand Thursday in Troy. The Burns’ family typically sells their produce to include a variety of locally grown fruits and vegetables along with honey and maple syrup Monday through Friday at the corner of West Main and Cedar Streets in front of Express Tire & Auto Center in Troy. On Saturdays, from 9 a.m. to noon, they sell at the Downtown Troy Farmers Market. According to Joel Burns the family will continue bringing their corn and produce to town through the first week of September then will offer pumpkins through October at the same location.

UN: 100,000-plus now dead in Syria’s civil war DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — The number of dead in Syria’s civil war has passed 100,000, the U.N. chief said Thursday, calling for urgent talks on ending 2½ years of violence even as President Bashar Assad’s government blasted the United States as an unsuitable peace broker.

In the latest example of the relentless carnage, a car bomb killed at least 10 people and wounded 66 in a pro-regime, residential area near the capital.

All international attempts to broker a political solution to the Syrian civil war have failed.

Despite a stalemate that has settled in for months, both sides still believe they can win the war and have placed impossible conditions for negotiations.

The international community has been unable — and some say, unwilling — to intervene sufficiently to tip the balance in favor of either the Assad regime or the rebels.

“There is no military solution to Syria,” U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters at the United Nations. “There is only a political solution, and that will

Admiration, puzzlement over Weiner’s loyal wife

NEW YORK (AP) — When Huma Abedin first started getting media attention years ago, some people couldn’t help but wonder what this beautiful, ambitious woman with high-fashion sense and a world-class Rolodex saw in Anthony Weiner.

WASHINGTON (AP) — After 9/11, there were no shades of gray. There are plenty now.

The vigorous debate over the collection of millions of Americans’ phone records, underlined by a narrow House vote upholding the practice, buried any notion that it’s out of line, even unpatriotic, to challenge the national security efforts of the government.

D e m o c rat s and Republicans, conservatives and liberals, joined in common cause against the Obama administration’s aggressive surveillance, falling just short Wednesday night against a similarly jumbled and determined coalition of leaders and lawmakers who supported it.

It’s not every day you see Republican Speaker John Boehner and Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi facing off together against their own parties’ colleagues — with an assist from Rep. Michele Bachmann, no less — to help give President Barack Obama what he wanted. But that’s

require leadership in order to bring people to the table,” he said.

He spoke ahead of talks with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who said the death toll had risen from nearly 93,000 just over a month ago to more than 100,000. Syrian opposition groups had made that same estimate a month ago.

The uprising against Assad’s

rule began in March 2011 and deteriorated into an insurgency with growing sectarian overtones.

Ban called on the Syrian government and opposition to halt the violence, saying it is “imperative to have a peace conference in Geneva as soon as possible.”

The U.S. and Russia are working

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration opened an aggressive new front in the battle over voter protection Thursday, singling out Texas for legal action and promising broader efforts to come after last month’s Supreme Court ruling that wiped out a major provision of the Voting Rights Act. It was the administration’s first legal response to counter the justices’ 5-4 decision, but Attorney General Eric Holder pledged that “it will not be our last.”

Voting n Continued from page 2 In a speech to the National Urban League in Philadelphia, Holder called the Voting Rights Act “the cornerstone of modern civil rights law” and said that “we cannot allow the slow unraveling of the progress that so many, throughout history, have sacrificed so much to achieve.”

Texas Republicans suggested the administration effort was more about politics.

“This decision has nothing to do with protecting voting rights and everything to do with advancing a partisan political agenda,” Sen John Cornyn said after Holder’s speech.

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott tweeted, “I’ll fight Obama’s effort to control our elections & I’ll fight against cheating at the ballot box.” Abbott is running for governor.

The Supreme Court, on June 25, threw out the most powerful part of the Voting Rights Act, whose enactment in 1965 marked a major turning point in black Americans’ struggle for equal rights and political power.

Holder said the first Justice

Department move would be to ask a federal court in San Antonio to require advance approval for voting changes in Texas, a state riven with political battles, from redistricting to voter ID requirements.

“Even as Congress considers updates to the Voting Rights Act in light of the court’s ruling, we plan, in the meantime, to fully utilize the law’s remaining sections to ensure that the voting rights of all American citizens are protected,” Holder said.

The Justice Department is asking that a preapproval requirement in Texas apply for 10 years.

The separate provision of the Voting Rights Act that Holder is invoking may be a difficult tool for the Obama administration to use.

A handful of jurisdictions have been subjected to advance approval of election changes through the Civil Rights Act provision it is relying on, but a court first must find that a state or local government engaged in intentional discrimination under the Constitution’s 14th or 15th

Amendments, or the jurisdiction has to admit to discrimination.

In the Texas case, the department is not directly intervening but is filing what’s known as a statement of interest in support of private groups that have filed suit.

“The fact that intervention in Texas is the Department of Justice’s first action to protect voting rights” following the Supreme Court decision “speaks volumes about the seriousness of Texas’ actions,” said state Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer, a Democrat from San Antonio and chairman of the Mexican American Legislative Caucus, which is a plaintiff in the San Antonio case.

North Carolina may become another target for the administration’s initiative.

On Wednesday, the Republicandominated North Carolina Senate gave preliminary approval to sweeping election law changes, including a requirement that voters present photo Identification at the polls and a shortening of early voting by a week.

In Texas, Holder said, there is a history of “pervasive voting-related discrimination against racial minorities.”

Based on evidence of intentional racial discrimination presented last year in a redistricting case, “we believe that the state of Texas should be required to go through a preclearance process whenever it changes its voting laws and practices,” said Holder.

A three-judge panel in San Antonio has been looking at Texas voting maps for state and congressional redistricting since 2011, when the court threw out boundaries drawn by a then-GOP supermajority in the statehouse.

An ensuing legal battle between the state and a coalition of minority rights groups upset the 2012 elections in Texas, delaying party primaries that ultimately used temporary maps drawn by the court.

Under the direction of GOP Gov. Rick Perry last month, the Legislature ratified those interim maps as permanent over the objection of Democrats, who still contend the maps are biased and underrepresent minorities.

Syria n Continued from page 2 to convene a conference, along with the United Nations, to try to agree on a transitional government based on a plan adopted in Geneva a year ago.

No official date has been set because the opposition refuses to attend any talks that are not about Assad’s departure.

Syrian government officials say participation in the conference should be without preconditions, but add that Assad’s departure before his term expires in 2014 is not negotiable. Assad has also said he has the right to run for elections again.

Kerry said he talked to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Wednesday and that both countries remained committed to bringing the warring parties together to further peace efforts.

“We will try our hardest to make that happen as soon as is possible,” Kerry said.

The comments at the U.N. appeared at odds with what was happening inside Syria. A U.S. decision to start sending arms to the rebels has further dimmed peace prospects.

The Syrian government

criticized the U.S. actions, saying Washington is unsuitable to act as a broker at any peace negotiations.

“Washington’s decision to send arms to terrorists in Syria confirms that the American administration is not objective in efforts to find a political solution and hold an international conference in Geneva,” Syrian state TV said, citing an unidentified Foreign Ministry official.

Assad’s government routinely refers to opposition fighters as “terrorists.”

“The American intentions seek to continue the cycle of violence and terrorism in Syria in order to destabilize … the region,” the statement said.

The U.S. government opposed providing any lethal assistance to Syria’s rebels until last month but is moving ahead now with sending weapons to vetted rebels after securing the approval of the House and Senate Intelligence committees.

President Barack Obama and his national security team have yet to say publicly what weapons they’ll provide and

when they’ll deliver them.

There has also been concern in the West that U.S. weapons could end up in the hands of al-Qaida-linked groups.

The Syrian National Coalition, the main Westernbacked opposition group, said in a statement that it was committed to ensuring the arms reach only those loyal to the coalition and its affiliated military councils.

The Syrian government has gone on the offensive and has succeeded, with the help of Lebanese Hezbollah militants, in pushing back rebels near Damascus and in central Homs province.

The White House acknowledged that momentum has shifted as Hezbollah and Iran have helped Assad’s forces.

The rebels are lashing out with stepped up mortar attacks on Damascus, the seat of Assad’s power, and with car bombs that target regime strongholds and security installations.

Thursday’s car bomb exploded in Jaramana, a suburb just few kilometers (miles) southeast of Damascus that is overwhelmingly pro-regime.

The state news agency SANA reported that the blast caused heavy damage to nearby buildings and destroyed many cars. TV footage showed mangled cars and heavily damaged residential buildings. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the bombing.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights initially put the death toll at 10 but later raised it to 17, saying several of the wounded had died.

Also Thursday, the Syrian National Coalition cast doubt on a mission by U.N. experts to investigate the alleged use of chemical weapons in the civil war.

Both sides accuse each other of using the banned weapons. Swedish chemical weapons expert Ake Sellstrom and U.N. disarmament chief Angela Kane met with Syrian officials Tuesday in Damascus to try to hammer out terms for a possible probe.

The coalition said it was worried the experts would be swayed by Assad, whom they predicted would try to restrict their movements.

Ban said the U.N. team discussed with Syrian officials “the modalities of investigation.”

“Since they’re coming out of Syria now, we’ll get the report soon,” he said.

In Lebanon, a senior Hezbollah official warned European countries that there will be “repercussions” to their decision this week to place the group’s military wing on the bloc’s list of terrorist organizations.

Hezbollah’s participation in the Syrian war alongside Assad’s forces was among the reasons for the EU decision earlier this week.

Ammar al-Moussawi, head of Hezbollah’s foreign relations department, spoke after meeting with Angelina Eichhorst, the EU ambassador to Lebanon. He suggested after the talks that she was not given a warm reception.

“No one can condemn me with one hand, then extend the other to shake hands,” he told reporters in Beirut after the meeting.

NSA n Continued from page 2 what it took to overcome efforts to restrict the National Security Agency’s surveillance program.

After the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, President George W. Bush warned the world “either you are with us or you are with the terrorists,” period, and those few politicians who objected to anything the U.S. wanted to do for its national security looked like oddballs.

That remarkable political consensus cracked in the bog of the Iraq war, and argument returned, but the government has had little trouble holding on to its extraordinary counterterrorism tools.

What’s changed?

The passage of time, for one thing, and the

absence of another attack on the scale of 9/11.

Americans have also discovered, through Edward Snowden’s leaks, that surveillance doesn’t start at the water’s edge or stop with terrorist plotters in the homeland, but sweeps in the phone records of ordinary people indiscriminately.

Even in the frightening aftermath of 9/11, when large majorities told pollsters they were ready to trade in some personal protections for greater security, any effort to monitor phone calls or emails of average people was considered a step too far. In a Pew Research Center survey the week after the terrorist attacks, 70 percent said no to that.

Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona says

memories of those days have faded and the political climate has changed.

“The stuff we went through last year about detainees we never would have gone through in 2002,” he said Thursday.

He was referring to the debate in Congress for two years straight over the indefinite detention of terrorist suspects, even U.S. citizens captured within the nation’s borders.

The closeness of the House surveillance vote “says there’s great and widespread concern about the extent of the NSA’s activities,” McCain said, “and that’s why we need hearings in Congress.” This, from a supporter of the NSA surveillance.

Concerns about drone

use domestically, as well as the NSA’s powers, have energized the debate in Congress, though they have hardly rolled back the national security apparatus. Lawmakers have prevailed repeatedly on votes to keep Guantanamo open for terrorist suspects and, on Wednesday, the House easily passed a nearly $600 billion defense spending bill once the air cleared from the surveillance showdown.

Public opinion appears to have shifted toward privacy but in measured ways.

A Washington PostABC News poll released Wednesday found rising concern about threats to privacy, with a majority saying the NSA’s collection of phone and

Internet data intrudes on people’s rights.

Yet 57 percent said it’s more important for the government to investigate terrorist threats, even at a cost to privacy, than for it to put privacy first. In 2002, that view was held even more strongly, by 79 percent.

Ever since the 2001 attacks, Congress has authorized and presidents of both parties have signed extensions of the powers to search records and conduct roving wiretaps in pursuit of terrorists, tools provided by the USA Patriot Act. The act passed in October 2001 with only one vote against it in the Senate, and with a lopsided 35766 vote in the House.

Two years ago, it won yet another strong endorsement, renewed despite a delay achieved

by Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, a tea party favorite though first and foremost a libertarian when it comes to the government exercising its national security powers.

The clash over the surveillance program Wednesday was the first chance for lawmakers to act since the breadth of

the government’s monitoring was exposed in classified documents leaked by Snowden, the former NSA systems analyst.

Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, implored fellow lawmakers to support the program, asking: “Have 12 years gone by and our memories faded so badly that we forgot what happened on Sept. 11?” In opposition, Republican colleague Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin said the collection of phone records exceeds anything he foresaw when he helped to write the Patriot Act, and should be stopped.

In a sign of the program’s iffy prospects, Boehner took the unusual step of casting a vote — he normally doesn’t — to help keep it alive. The program survived on a vote of 217-205, capping a bipartisan struggle won by 134 Republicans and 83 Democrats joining in favor of the operation.

Against it: 94 Republicans and 111 Democrats — losers of the vote but outliers no more.

State of health care remains uncertain

PIQUA — The only thing certain about health care today is the uncertainty. That was part of the message conveyed July 17 during the State of Health Care luncheon organized by the Piqua, Troy and Tipp City chambers of commerce.

Speakers on health care were Tom Parker, president and CEO of the Upper Valley Medical Center, and Bryan Bucklew, president and CEO of Bucklew the Greater Dayton Area Hospital Association.

“Through no fault of the hospitals, doctors, patients or lawyers there is just a lot of uncertainty in the marketplace,” Bucklew said.

As implementation of the federal Affordable Care Act nears, everyone — individuals, employers, business owners, providers and hospitals — has questions about what the rules will be, who will pay for what, what type of insurance actually is needed and how more people can access the system, Bucklew said.

“These are tough decisions to make, but especially when you don’t have all of the information in front of you,” he said.

However, there is good news for those receiving health care in the region, Bucklew said. That is the result of a hospital

quality outcomes survey using hospital mortality rates for conditions such as heart attacks, stroke and pulmonary disease by Healthgrades, a national organization that documents health care quality scores. “ T h e r e s u l t s showed our hospital quality is second to none; I mean number one in the country, ahead of Parker places such as Phoenix and Cleveland,” Bucklew said.

“We are very proud. The things we can control in the region, we do every well. The things we can’t control — regulations, reimbursement rates — those are the challenges that we have as a community,” he said.

Despite all the questions regarding the future of health care, Bucklew said no one argues the system was working.

“The status quo wasn’t a good system … I think everybody agrees something had to change. I think what you are seeing now is a natural evolution of figuring out how do you get a system to work efficiently and that is affordable,” he said.

“The good news for our region is our hospitals are doing outstanding work, and it is being ratified by

outside, independent organizations,” Bucklew said.

The growing cost of health care today and inconsistent outcomes just is not palatable, Parker said. Where once health care was driven by volume because of payments made based on volume, it now has a different focus, at least regionally, he said. “ The whole future state model is driven by what is necessary, not how much can be done,” Parker said.

“We are focusing the future on quality outcomes and keeping people healthy, not just treating and billing them.”

“UVMC continues to be a very busy place,” Parker added, noting that visits to the UVMC Emergency Department increased 10 percent last year.

As more liberal requirements for Medicaid qualification is pushed by some, access to care for individuals is a growing concern regionally and nationally, the speakers noted.

“Here in Miami County, the UVMC Board of Directors is very proud of its financial partnerships with local organizations to help with access to care,” Parker said. The UVMC Community Benefit Fund currently supports Health Partners of Miami County, the Miami County Dental Clinic and Hospice of Miami County.

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP San Antonio Express-News on the House tackling ‘amnesty’: The bipartisan group of U.S. House members working on its version of comprehensive immigration reform has reportedly come up with a different “trigger” for citizenship.

This involves E-Verify, the electronic system for employers to confirm workers have legal residency. Mostly, these triggers have focused on securing the border, where extensive security measures already are in place.

Under the proposal, E-Verify would have to be operational after five years. If it isn’t, immigrants would be bumped out of “probation” and revert to undocumented status.

This was reported by Greg Sargent of the Washington Post last week.

This E-Verify component, at least, has the virtue of addressing the problem at a more critical point — in the workplace, giving employers the tools so that they can no longer claim that they “unknowingly” hired a person with no legal right to a job.

As long as jobs are available — and employers can evade legal responsibility for hiring those without papers — undocumented immigrants will come. And stay.

(OOTC:CMAYF) The border security measure in the Senate plan would cost $30 billion to nearly double the number of Border Patrol agents. It would also build 700 miles of fence.

This, though the country has already doubled the number of Border Patrol agents since 2005, spends more on border security than other federal law enforcement endeavors combined and net migration has dwindled to about net zero.

Politics drive this yen for border security, the need to give Republicans cover so that they can claim they are “getting tough” on immigration. …

What does operational mean? And if this “admission” means fewer of the 11 million estimated undocumented workers here step forward, it will be counterproductive.

Why, after all, step forward if there is a chance you will have set yourself up for deportation if E-Verify isn’t “operational?”

Still, the approach has more promise than border security, which can most charitably be described as pork whose only saving grace is that it gives some members cover to do the right thing.

We await details and, should the plan even get through the House, we are hopeful that a conference committee with the Senate will iron out the differences to the common good.

Kansas City Star on answers needed on Cuba’s missile shipment to North Korea: Given Cuba’s long-running economic crisis, you could imagine that some entrepreneurial lieutenant of the revolutionary government got a gold star for inventing a possible new revenue stream.

It certainly sounds like a clever move to clean out the Cold War closet and dump some outmoded radar systems, Russian jets and missile parts on a willing taker. After all, Cuba’s Museum of the Revolution can hold only so many military souvenirs. Were the parts going to North Korea for repair, as Cuba has confessed in the days since a North Korean ship was halted at the Panama Canal? Or is Kim Jong Un in the midst of refreshing his toy chest?

And burying the cargo under bags of sugar — that’s the kind of low-tech comedy we’ve come to expect from the Cubans.

So, was Cuba paying North Korea in advance with sugar for the fix-it work or was it selling a fellow underfed nation one of the only exports of substance it has to offer, along with the military hardware?

Weapons analysts have said that even if the restored equipment made its way back to Cuba, it would be ineffective to useless. The Russians made these things a half-century ago. The Cubans can hardly keep Russia’s leftover Lada cars running.

Seriously folks, this episode, which reportedly follows a similar Cuba-to-North Korea shipping event in 2012, comes right at a time when the U.S. and Cuba seemed ready for constructive engagement.

Is this another Cuban Missile Crisis, the edge-of-war standoff of 1962 that should’ve remained a distant memory?

That’s doubtful. But what is certain is that Cuba owes the U.S. and the world a full explanation. The United Nations will take up the matter, and the U.S. government, thankfully, is not reacting in haste.

We’ve been led to expect better from Cuban President Raul Castro, who has seemed more open to repairing relations with the U.S. than was his older brother and predecessor, Fidel. But making nice with big boy Kim puts Castro on a par with — say it ain’t so — Dennis Rodman.

That’s a comedy and a tragedy all rolled up into one.

LETTERS Thank you for your support The Hoffman Art Show Silent Auction was July 12 and 13.

We would like to thank those artists who donated their artwork for the auction: Mr. Gail Stickelman, John Thomas, Edy Martin, Evelyn Mahart, Carol Peden, Kathyryn Pitstick, Sherri Flock, Gloria Honeyman, Linda Lock, Constance Brown and Megen Ankerman.

A surprise entry was donated by Paul Swigart. The title is “Old Man Noah,” by Roland Osborne (1904-1977). Mr. Osborne was an Indiana native who moved to West

Milton in 1955. He taught art at Indiana University and Earlham College. His work is known internationally. A silent bidder obtained this painting at a very reasonable price.

Mr. Swigart also loaned us another Osborne painting, “Abandoned Mine,” to display as part of the show.

Again we thank all those who participated in any way, as well as all those who attended, to make this another successful show.

Council OK’s street levy Funds to help with future paving projects

By JOYELL NEVINS Civitas Media jnevins@civitasmedia.com

WEST MILTON — Village council passed a second ordinance for the replacement street levy during a special session July 23.

The current levy is 3 mills, originally passed in 1984 and renewed three times. Every time it has been renewed, however, the levy goes by 1984 property and dollar values. So even though the replacement levy is still 3 mills, it will go by 2013 rates.

The current levy generates a little more than $94,000 a year. An owner with a home valued at $100,000 currently pays $39.84 a year for the street levy. If approved in November, the tax for the same $100,000 home will rise to $91.88, or an additional $52.04.

The current levy goes into the street fund for capital improvements. This new levy would do primarily the same thing, according to Municipal Manager Matt Kline. However, he noted, some would be used in operations to off-set the loss of both state and county funds the village has experienced over the years, both from the state highway fund and license plates fees.

The new property values have been certified by the auditor, and the ballot will be filed by Aug. 7.

One of the projects the levy would help pay for in the future is street paving, such as the two discussed at a workshop also held July 23.

Williams Drive to the north, east and south will be paved and milled. The age of the current surface is 15 years old.

Superintendent of Streets Ben Herron pointed out that in the past two overlays, it was never milled. Milling is where the existing asphalt surface is ground down and removed before the new asphalt is poured on top.

“Previous administrations thought it was better not to mill, so they could pave additional streets,” Herron explained.

The problem is that the street won’t slope correctly, and it creates a gap between the curb

and the top of the asphalt. On Williams Drive, there is now a rollback curb 3-5 inches below the grade.

“You create more problems than the money you save,” Herron said.

He pointed out that if done on a regular basis (or at least when the paving is done), milling 6 inches from the curb should cost approximately $20,000. It is going to cost almost $50,000 this time around.

Another project in conjunction with the paving that Herron feels is long overdue is replacing the loop detector. That’s a wire that goes underneath the asphalt that runs into a conduit for a traffic light, telling it when there’s a car that needs to turn left. After years of being in the ground, the wires can fray or break, Herron said. He couldn’t even find the date of when the detectors had last been replaced.

The third portion of the streets to be replaced is the thermal plastic pavement. Instead of painting on traffic lines, the street department uses a plastic product that “melts” onto the street.

Herron said that while painting a line may only last for a year, the thermal plastic markers last three to five years.

The other major project for fall is Emerick Road, from S. Miami Street to the corporate limit. The current surface ranges in age from 12 to 19 years — Herron’s goal is to get the whole street onto one paving cycle.

“We’re trying to sector paving, not just do a portion over here, or a part over there,” Herron said.

The loop detector and thermal plastic pavement will also be replaced on this street.

The projects will be open for bidding Aug. 1, with the goal of completion by Oct. 4 (in time for leaf season, Herron said).

Herron estimates the entire project will cost about $160,000. He’s been saving money from the previous year’s street fund collection to pay for both projects.

“To continue my paving program in 2014 and beyond (the replacement levy) needs to pass,” Herron said.

Water department system to get overhaul Current reading system labor intensive

By JOYELL NEVINS Civitas Media jnevins@civitasmedia.com

WEST MILTON — In the next few months, the West Milton water department may be getting an overhaul to its system.

Currently, there are nine to 10 water meters that need replaced immediately and it takes Utilities Supervisor Tim Swartztrauber five to seven days a month to walk from house to house and get the readings.

“Tim’s a strong man, but I don’t think your superintendent should be going door to door reading meters,” Municipal Manager Matt Kline said.

So, Kline and Swartztrauber have been looking at options for a meter overhaul.

Right now, council has four choices — two different systems with two different meter brands. Either way, it is expected for the new system to increase revenue through more accurate reading by 6-9 percent, the men said. Kline said a 5 percent increase would equal to an extra $75,000 for the water department.

The first choice is a base bid “drive-by” system, ranging from $429,528-$634,812.

Instead of Swartztrauber walking from house to house, he would drive around in Obituaries a truck and the meters would electronically transmit its readings.

Rehabilitation Center, Dayton.

However, Kline and Swartztrauber pointArrangements pending with Fisher-Cheney Funeral Home, Troy. ed out that the meters will still only be read once a month, which provides limited

customer service. Their recommendation is the alternate 1 “fixed base” system, ranging from $501,578-$716,893.

These systems use special antennas to transmit water readings from the meter every hour on the hour. Every four hours, the information is sent to the water plant and immediately available in report form.

If a meter is tampered with, the utilities supervisor would get an immediate email.

The supervisor would also get a daily email of residents that used over a certain amount of water, say 500 gallons, to catch water leaks early.

The ability to get reports at the touch of a button also eliminates the need for manual leak checks and appointments for final readings.

“If we want to provide excellence in customer service, this fixed base is the way to go,” Kline said.

Swartztrauber added, “There’s no ifs, ands or buts about it.”

The two different types of meters are Badger and Sunsus. Kline and Swartztrauber were impressed with the power of the Sunsus meter system (how far away the antennas could pick up information), but plan to look at a Badger system this week, since the Badger meters are normally cheaper.

If no new system was installed and all the old meters were simply replaced, the cost would be about $294,000. That does not include installation and labor time.

Once council makes a decision, Swartztrauber hopes to have the new system up and running by early September.

Residents to get fresh, free produce program.

“They’re all nice and caring toward you,” said Watts, 19. “It helps you feel welcome to come back. It’s nice for people to take time out of their day, especially in this heat.”

Conant said she tries to find out ahead of time what food will be delivered so she can make recipe cards for recipients.

“It teaches people how to use the food they receive,” Conant said. “People are learning how to use them, and it’s expanding their education.”

Fresh food initiatives have been offered in the area since 2000. This program is being funded by Allegiance Health and United Way of Jackson County.

Any Jackson County resident can receive food as long as they bring a bag or box to carry their fresh food. There are no restrictions on who can collect food.

Monday morning was the first time that Jackson resident Bill Smith had utilized the program. He said it is beneficial for people who cannot afford fresh produce like corn.

“It’s a diversion from the canned stuff,” said Smith, 62. “It’s really a good blessing.”

On July 15, volunteers were distributing fresh food to residents at the parking lot of the Salvation Army.

As part of the program, five locations will offer fresh food every Monday through Sept. 23, excluding Labor Day, Sept. 2.

‘Ten Days’ — and three years Local author completes book

By ASHLEY MOOR

For Civitas Media tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com

WEST MILTON — John Sheppard takes a look back in history in his novel “Ten Days.”

Sheppard has been a resident of West Milton for 30 years, where he works as an engineer for a major Japanese automotive company. He spent three years writing “Ten Days,” a story about the 10 days leading up to the sieging of a capitol city.

The story follows four characters — an archivist, a military figure, and a wealthy doctor and his wife.

“The characters are very emotional — they are grieving for their lost city,” Sheppard said.

Each day is seperated into a chapter, an idea he borrowed from one of his favorite novels “Hiroshima.” Each of the chapters gives a unique persepective into the lives of the four main characters, and what they go through on those particular days.

Though he started writ-

As far as hobbies go, Sheppard also enjoys gardening and spending time with his family.

Only Jackman makes ‘Wolverine’ interesting Don’t get us wrong. We don’t mean to take anything away from the more substantial qualities of “The Wolverine,” a fairly satisfying if not stellar installment in the saga of the famous mutant that Hugh Jackman’s been playing since, wow, 2000.

(For a little perspective, Bill Clinton was still president.)

But let’s just point out that Jackman bares it all in a brief but memorable scene in a bathtub, and the studio would be wise to advertise this scene as much as possible. Because Wolverine is all about Jackman, and not only is the actor in amazing shape, but he’s funny in the scene, too. So why not flaunt it?

Jackman’s been in good movies and notas-good movies, but one thing he’s never lacked is charisma. Whether hoofing it in a Broadway musical or crooning as Jean Valjean in “Les Miserables,” that charisma makes him always worth watching. And so, whether you’re an X-Men fan or not, it’s Jackman that makes “The Wolverine” worth watching, too.

Oh yes, the movie. Well, as we mentioned, it’s fairly satisfying. On the plus side, we get to know the Wolverine, aka Logan, a little better. We also see him physically challenged, losing some of his mutant healing powers, which gives Jackman a nice chance to display weak-

ness.

There are also some welcome funny moments in the script, many having to do with its Japan setting. When Logan and a young woman he’s protecting want to hide, they enter a Japanese “love hotel” where, they’re informed, their room options are: dungeon, nurse’s office, or Mission to Mars. (They pick the latter). Also pay attention to Logan’s great comeback after throwing a bad guy out a window into a swimming pool.

terrific action scene — the film’s best — on a speeding bullet train, making great use of those bone claws.

On the minus side are some lackluster performances and an ending that, sorry to say, is simply not that exciting, or maybe we’ve all just run out of steam by then.

The film, Jackman’s sixth outing as Logan, finds him hiding out in the woods of the Yukon, his best friend a grizzly bear.

He runs into Yukio (an appealing Rila Fukushima), who tells him he’s needed in Japan.

Admiration, puzzlement over Weiner’s loyal wife NEW YORK (AP) — When Huma Abedin first started getting media attention years ago, some people couldn’t help but wonder what this beautiful, ambitious woman with high-fashion sense and a world-class Rolodex saw in Anthony Weiner.

That’s a question New Yorkers might be asking themselves again after revelations that Weiner, now a candidate for mayor of New York, didn’t immediately give up his habit of sending sexual pictures and messages to female fans after his humiliating resignation from Congress in 2011.

Abedin herself took a shot at an answer in an awkward joint news conference Tuesday, saying she had forgiven her husband and felt his marital indiscretions were “between us.”

She offered an even more basic explanation in a first-person essay in Harper’s Bazaar due on newsstands in September.

“Quite simply, I love my husband, I love my city, and I believe in what he wants to do for the people of New York,” she wrote.

Will that be enough to satisfy a bewildered public? Maybe not. But people who go searching for a deeper motive are almost certain to get it wrong.

“None of us know what’s going on with that couple now,” said Stephen Medvic, an associate professor of government at Franklin & Marshall College in Pennsylvania and author of the book, “In Defense of Politicians.”

“She made a statement,” he said. “Let’s leave it at that. Let’s not try to put into somebody’s mind what’s not there.”

In an email sent to campaign supporters Tuesday, Weiner tried to explain his actions, saying he turned to women on the Internet after his marriage hit a rocky patch.

“Sending these embarrassing messages to women online, whom I never met, was a personal failing that was hurtful to my wife and a part of my life that Huma and I have put behind us. These things I did, as you have read in the papers, didn’t happen once.

It was a terrible mistake that I unfortunately returned to during a rough time in our marriage,” he wrote. “After a lot of reflection, some professional help, and a general reorientation of my life, Huma has given me a second chance.”

the obvious comparisons with her mentor, Clinton, who shoved her own husband’s scandals aside to become a massive figure in American politics.

In some ways, the additional name recognition brought by the scandal made her a target.

Last July, U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, a Minnesota Republican, wrote a letter to the State Department accusing Abedin’s late father, mother and brother of being connected to the Muslim Brotherhood, the Egyptian Islamist political party.

That unsubstantiated allegation drew a rebuke from even some Republicans. Sen. John McCain gave a speech on the Senate floor praising Abedin’s patriotism and calling her representative of “what is best about America.”

Since then, Abedin has appeared dedicated to resurrecting her husband’s political career.

She urged him to run for mayor and helped arrange a lengthy New York Times Magazine profile last spring in which the couple talked at length about their struggle to overcome marital problems. In those interviews, they did not disclose that Weiner had continued to chase other women online even after his resignation.

As Weiner’s unlikely mayoral campaign has picked up steam, Abedin has helped organize the campaign staff, become his most important fundraiser, and hit the campaign trail, where she told reporters that she was “having so much fun.”

Her nervous public appearance with Weiner on Tuesday looked anything but.

“My heart just reaches out to her. She’s such a classy, beautiful lady and I just hate to see her in this,” U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel said.

People watching the eye-popping spectacle were sure to wonder why she would subject herself to that kind of torture, especially since her career path would appear to be bright even if her husband left public life forever.

Abedin left the State Department when Clinton retired and now heads her private office. If Clinton runs for president again in 2016, most observers expect her to play a role in the campaign.

AP Photo In this Jan. 5, 2011, file photo, Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., and his wife, Huma Abedin, aide to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, talk after a ceremonial swearing in of the 112th Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington. When Abedin’s name and face first started appearing in the media six years ago, lots of people couldn’t help but wonder what this beautiful, ambitious woman with highfashion sense and a world-class rolodex saw in Anthony Weiner. That’s a question New Yorkers are asking themselves again.

Abedin now seems to be trying to shake off a cloud of humiliation, which seems an exceeding unlikely place for someone whose reputation as a top aide to Hillary Rodham Clinton was based on an uncanny ability to navigate the chaos of presidential campaigns and global diplomatic trips with the poise of Grace Kelly.

Born in Kalamazoo, Mich., Abedin moved as a toddler to Saudi Arabia, where her father, an Islamic scholar born in India, ran an institute that studied Muslim communities in non-Muslim societies, and her mother, a sociology professor, taught at a women’s college.

Educated at George Washington University, Abedin entered public service as a White House intern and quickly established a special relationship with the then first lady.

She has been at Clinton’s side ever since, joining her Senate staff then her presidential campaign before becoming her deputy chief of staff at the State Department.

By all accounts, Abedin has been more

than a trusted employee. When Abedin was preparing to marry Weiner in 2010, Clinton said at one celebration that if she had a second daughter, it would be Huma.

Long known as a behind-the-scenes presence, Abedin began to attract more public attention after gushing 2007 profiles in the New York Observer and Vogue magazine, which photographed her looking like a movie star in a red gown. Those and other articles attributed her with a frightening work ethic and an almost supernatural ability to troubleshoot and stop problems in their tracks without breaking a sweat.

Weiner was quoted in the Observer piece as saying, “I think there’s some dispute as to whether Huma’s actually human or not.” At the time, the couple hadn’t yet disclosed that they were dating. The two knew each other in political circles for years before becoming romantically involved.

When her new husband’s political career disintegrated in 2011 just as she was about to have a child, Abedin couldn’t escape

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Saturday, July 27, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be patient, because power struggles with authority figures or family members are likely. Plus, with the Moon in your sign, you feel feisty!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This could be an accident-prone day because you lose your temper or feel emotionally uptight. Avoid arguments with siblings, neighbors and relatives.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Squabbles about money or possessions might irk you today. Try not to lose it. Some will have arguments about cash flow, earnings or the disputed ownership of something.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your attempts to make things better or to improve someone else could end in disaster today. Don't force your opinions on others, even if you are convinced you are right.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might feel annoyed with someone, and yet, you're muzzled. Therefore, you are simmering and seething in silence. Just let this go, because it's not good for your health!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Heated differences with others, especially in group situations, might occur today. Do not expect to get your own way. These power struggles even might affect your goals. Be careful.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You'll have to compromise or go more than halfway when dealing with others because the Moon is opposite your sign. In addition, authority figures and family members are looking for a fight. Oh, dear.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today because people are aggressive and looking for trouble. Speaking of which, avoid crime-ridden areas or dangerous neighborhoods.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Disputes about inheritances, shared property or the ownership of something might arise today. If you can't persuade others to share your values, at least listen to what they say.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Difficulties with partners and close friends will arise today because ego battles are rampant. In particular, be patient with family members, especially females.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Work issues could be aggravated by arguments today because everyone wants to have his or her own way.

Furthermore, each person thinks he or she knows what is best for everyone else. (Bummer.)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Be patient with children today. Machinery and equipment might break down, or romantic squabbles could add to your problems. It is what it is.

YOU BORN TODAY You are forceful, decisive and powerfully organized.

You know how to run any organization. This is why others turn to you for answers and decision-making. You like to plan ahead, and you know how to get the best out of others. At times you are intimidating; nevertheless, people respect you. Work hard to build or construct something this year, and your rewards soon will follow.

80 dead in Spain train crash blamed on high speed SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain (AP) — A Spanish train that hurtled off the rails and smashed into a security wall as it rounded a bend was going so fast that carriages tumbled off the tracks like dominos, killing 80 people, according to eyewitness accounts and video footage obtained Thursday.

An Associated Press analysis of video images suggests that the train may have been traveling at twice the speed limit for that stretch of track.

Spain’s government said two probes have been launched into the cause of Wednesday night’s crash near this Christian festival city in northwest Spain.

The regional government in Galicia confirmed that the train driver, hospitalized in Santiago de Compostela’s main hospital with unspecified injuries, was being questioned as a possible suspect but that possible faults in safety equipment were also being investigated.

The Interior Ministry raised the death toll to 80 in what was Spain’s deadliest train wreck in four decades. The Galician government said 94 remained hospitalized in six regional hospitals, 31 of them — including four children — in critical condition.

The U.S. State Department said one American was killed in the crash and five others were injured. It provided no other details.

Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, a native of Santiago de Compostela, toured the crash scene alongside rescue workers and went to a nearby hospital to visit those wounded and their families.

“For a native of Santiago, like me, this is the saddest day,” said Rajoy, who declared Spain would observe a three-day period of mourning. He said judicial authorities and the Public Works Ministry had launched parallel investigations into what caused the crash.

Eyewitness accounts backed by security-camera footage of the moment of disaster suggested that the eightcarriage train was going too fast as it tried to turn left underneath a road bridge. The train company Renfe said 218 passengers and five crew members were on board. Spanish officials said the speed limit on that section of track is 80

kilometers (50 miles) per hour.

An Associated Press estimate of the train’s speed at the moment of impact using the time stamp of the video and the estimated distance between two pylons gives a range of 144-192 kph (89-119 mph). Another estimate calculated on the basis of the typical distance between railroad ties gives a range of 156-182 kph (96-112 mph).

The video footage, which the Spanish railway authority Adif said probably came from one of its cameras, shows the train carriages start to buckle soon into the turn.

Murray Hughes, consultant editor of Railway Gazette International, said it appeared that a diesel-powered unit behind the lead locomotive was the first to derail. The front engine itself quickly followed, violently tipping on to its right side as it crashed into a concrete security wall and bulldozed along the ground.

In the background, all the rear carriag-

es could be seen starting to decouple and come off the tracks. The picture went blank as the engine appeared to crash directly into the camera.

After impact, witnesses said a fire engulfed passengers trapped in at least one carriage, most likely driven by ruptured tanks of diesel fuel carried in the forward engines.

“I saw the train coming out of the bend at great speed and then there was a big noise,” one eyewitness who lives beside the train line, Consuelo Domingues, told The Associated Press. “… Then everybody tried to get out of the train.”

Santiago officials had been preparing for the city’s internationally celebrated Catholic festival Thursday but canceled it and took control of the city’s main indoor sports arena to use as a makeshift morgue. There, relatives of the dead could be seen sobbing and embracing each other.

AP Photo Pope Francis blesses a child during his visit to the Varginha slum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Thursday. Francis on Thursday visited one of Rio de Janeiro’s shantytowns, or favelas, a place that saw such rough violence in the past that it’s known by locals as the Gaza Strip.

‘Slum pope’ tells slum residents not to lose hope

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The “slum pope” returned to the slum on Thursday as Pope Francis visited one of Rio de Janeiro’s favelas, telling its residents that the wealthy must do more to end the “culture of selfishness” that has left the poor on the margins of society.

Francis, who has said he wants a church that looks out for the less fortunate, received a rapturous welcome during his visit to Varghina, a neighborhood in northern Rio that’s part of a violent region known by locals as the Gaza Strip.

Despite heavy security and a cold rain, Francis waded into the cheering crowds and hugged and kissed residents young and old before blessing the altar at the shoebox of a church that serves the community. He prayed before a replica of Brazil’s patron saint, the Virgin of Aparecida, and met with a family in their squat yellow home.

“He gave each of us a rosary, he took photos with everyone and embraced each one,” said Diego Rodrigues, a 26-year-old friend of the da Penha family who received the papal visit. “I think everyone but the pope was speechless!”

Francis brought a message of hope, following in the footsteps of Pope John Paul II who visited two such favelas during a 1980 trip to Brazil and Mother Teresa who visited Varginha itself in 1972. Her Missionaries of Charity order have kept a presence in the shantytown ever since.

Like Mother Teresa, Francis brought his own personal history to the visit: As archbishop of Buenos Aires, thenCardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio frequently preached in the poverty-wracked slums of his native city, putting into action his belief that the Catholic Church must go to the farthest peripheries to preach and not sit back and wait for the most marginalized to come to Sunday Mass.

In remarks to a crowd of several thousand Varghina residents, who slushed through a muddy soccer field to welcome him, Francis acknowledged that young people in particular have a sensitivity toward injustice.

“You are often disappointed by facts that speak of corruption on the part of people who put their own interests before the common good,” Francis told the crowd. “To you and all, I repeat: Never yield to discouragement, do not lose trust, do not allow your hope to be extinguished.

Situations can change, people can change.”

It was a clear reference to the violent protests that paralyzed parts of the country in recent weeks as Brazilians furious over rampant corruption and inefficiency within the country’s political class took to the streets.

Francis blasted what he said was a “culture of selfishness and individualism” that permeates society today, demanding that those with money and power share their wealth and resources to fight hunger and poverty.

“No amount of peace-building will be able to last, nor will harmony and happiness be attained in a society that ignores, pushes to the margins or excludes a part of itself,” Francis said.

He heard from resident Rangler dos Santos Irineu, who said that thanks to his visit, the favela was spruced up: Street lights were installed, the roads were paved and garbage collected.

“Everything that wasn’t part of daily life for the residents has been done now, and we hope it will continue,” he said.

It was one of the highlights of Francis’ weeklong trip to Brazil, his first as pope and one seemingly tailor-made for the first pontiff from the Americas. Later Thursday, he was to preside over a welcoming ceremony on Copacabana beach for World Youth Day, his first official event with the hundreds of thousands of young people who have flocked to a rain-soaked Rio for the Catholic youth festival.

He added a last-minute tweak to his busy schedule, meeting with pilgrims from his native Argentina at Rio’s cathedral Thursday afternoon. He told the youngsters to get out into the streets and spread their faith, saying that a church that doesn’t go out and preach becomes a simple NGO, or nongovernmental organization. “And the church cannot be an NGO!” he said to wild applause.

Francis’ open-air car was mobbed on a few occasions as he headed into Varghina’s streets lined with brick shacks, but he never seemed in danger. In fact he was showered with gifts as he walked down one of the slum’s main drags without an umbrella to shield him from the constant rain. A well-wisher gave him a paper lei, or necklace, hung around his neck, and he held up a scarf from his favorite soccer team, Buenos Aires’ San Lorenzo, that was offered to him.

“Events like this, with the pope and all the local media, get everyone so excited,” said Antonieta de Souza Costa, a 56-year-old vendor and resident of Varginha. “I think this visit is going to bring people back to the Catholic Church.”

In the last two decades, the church has lost legions of faithful in the country, most of them poorer Brazilians who have switched to Pentecostal evangelical congregations with a huge presence in Varginha and most other slums.

The Varginha slum butts up against what until about six months back was the largest “cracolandia” — crackland — in Brazil, where hundreds of crack cocaine users gathered under a train overpass and used the drug openly night and day. Crumbling brittle shacks still give the area a bombedout feel.

However, the slum on Thursday was buzzing with excitement. Some 200 schoolchildren held blue-and-white balloons and construction-paper flags of yellow and green, Brazil’s national colors. Every time a police helicopter buzzed overhead, the kids screamed with delight, their shrill high voices drowning out all other noises.

Photos show Hernandez apparently holding gun

ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) — Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez is holding what authorities have said is a gun in several surveillance photos that were released Thursday and had been recorded hours before — and minutes after — his friend was shot to death.

The photos, taken from Hernandez’s home surveillance system, are in more than 100 pages of court records released by Attleboro District Court. Prosecutors have previously described the photos in court and in affidavits, but this is the public’s first look at images showing Hernandez holding a gun both before and after the killing.

Hernandez has pleaded not a few hours before Lloyd’s guilty to murder in the death killing, also holding what they of Odin Lloyd, a 27-year-old say is a gun.

Defense attorneys have objected to the unsealing of the records, saying it is “systematically undermining” Hernandez’s right to a fair trial.

Also Wednesday, O’Shea sided with prosecutors who asked to delay a probable cause hearing for Hernandez to give them more time to present evidence in the murder case to a grand jury. That hearing was rescheduled for Aug. 22.

Jimmy Haslam optimistic about outcome of probe

Hard knocks Bengals’ Green twists knee, Smith returns

CINCINNATI (AP) — All-Pro receiver A.J. Green twisted his left knee while trying to make a sideline catch during the Cincinnati Bengals’ first practice of training camp on Thursday, then walked to the trainer’s room for treatment.

Green planted his left foot and and twisted the knee while reaching for the Smith ball, which deflected off his upper arm. He landed hard, rolled onto his back and grabbed the knee before putting his hands on the top of his helmet in pain.

Green stayed down for a couple of minutes while a trainer examined the knee and a crew filming for HBO’s “Hard Knocks” show sped to the spot. He got up, walked about 20 yards, then stopped and grabbed the knee again. Finally, he headed for the

locker room without assistance.

The injury occurred during the last half-hour of practice.

“I think he’s fine,” coach Marvin Lewis said. “They went inside just so they can take a look, but I think he’s fine.”

The Bengals’ most valuable player was trying to make an over-the-shoulder catch with cornerback Terence Newman guarding him along the sideline. Newman lightly pushed Green in the back as he stretched to try for an extraordinary catch.

“He just twisted himself, one of A.J.’s contortions,” Lewis said.

Right tackle Andre Smith was back with the Bengals for the start of camp, but couldn’t practice because of an injured calf. Smith, • See BENGALS on page 16

BEREA (AP) — Browns owner Jimmy Haslam is confident there will be a favorable resolution to his legal mess.

Speaking to reporters moments after the Browns began their first practice of training camp, Haslam said he’s “very optimistic” about the outcome of a federal investigation involving fraud at his family’s truckstop chain.

Haslam’s Pilot Flying J had its headquarters in Knoxville, Tenn., raided on April 15 by the FBI and IRS. Haslam was later accused of knowing about a program to overcharge customers.

He recently reached a settlement to reimburse customers who were cheated out of fuel rebates.

Haslam reiterated his ongoing legal situation will not force him to sell the team he took over last August.

“We’re committed to owning the Browns for a long period of time,” Haslam said. “I understand in Cleveland there’s a great deal of uncertainty because of past history, but the fans should not worry. Our family is going to own this asset for a long, long time. We’re excited and we feel it’s a privilege to own not just an NFL team, but to own the Cleveland Browns with all the heritage and history it has.”

Haslam was asked if he would remain in charge of the franchise if he was indicted.

“Let me say this and I think you all have seen this with us and with me, our style is to be very transparent and very open,” he said.

“When the government investigation happened on April 15, one of the very first calls we made was to the NFL. We’re in constant

contact with them, they have been very supportive in working with us and I’d say we’re very optimistic on the outcome.”

Haslam said the investigation has not been a distraction in rebuilding the Browns and he denied there were any problems with his cash flow, citing the team’s spending in free agency, recent renovations of the team’s headquarters and plans to makeover FirstEnergy Stadium.

“There’s absolutely no worry about cash flow,” said Haslam, wearing a gray Browns T-shirt and brown shorts. “If there was, we wouldn’t be doing the things we were in Berea, we wouldn’t have signed the free agents, we wouldn’t be talking about doing the things we are at the stadium. We’re looking at this as a long-term vision. We want to be successful as quickly as we can.

“We want to build a longterm vision here.”

Haslam is excited about the upcoming season, but cautioned Cleveland fans to be patient with the team’s new front office and coaching staff. He wants the Browns to win consistently and would like that to happen as soon as possible.

“You are talking to one of the more impatient people in the world,” he said. “It’s not easy. We were talking today, ‘How badly do we want to win the first game?’

We all understand the importance of that. What really counts is how we perform in the last three games versus how we perform in the first three games. And are we a better team at the end of the year than we were at the first of the year. I think that’s important to all teams and particularly for young teams.”

Bolt: Scandals ‘set us back’ LONDON (AP) — Usain Bolt believes the recent doping scandals in sprinting hurt the sport and insists he’s running clean.

The world’s fastest man stopped short of condemning fellow Jamaican sprinters Asafa Powell and Sherone Simpson or American rival Tyson Gay, whose failed doping tests have left the sport in turmoil ahead of worlds.

“Definitely, it’s going to set us back a little bit,” Bolt said Thursday in London before a Diamond League meet — his first competition in the city since his three gold medals at last year’s Olympics.

“But as a person, I can’t focus on this.”

Bolt said it won’t affect his preparations for the upcoming world championships In Moscow.

Bolt “I still have world championships, everyone is stepping up their game, so I have to really focus on that,” he said. “I am just trying to work hard, run fast and hopefully help people to forget what has happened and just move on.”

He’ll run the 100 meters Friday and 4x100 relay Saturday at the meet in London’s Olympic Stadium, which marks the one-year anniversary of the opening ceremony.

In his first public comments since news of the high-profile doping cases broke on July 14, Bolt promised that he won’t be the next sprint star to be embroiled in a scandal.

“I was made to inspire people and to run, and I was given the gift and that’s what I do,” the sixtime Olympic champion said. “I am confident in myself and my team, the people I work with. And I know I am clean.

“So I’m just going to continue running, using my talent and just trying to improve the sport.”

If the recent cases have cast doubt about Bolt’s own integrity, the 100- and 200-meter world record-holder asked skeptics to check his record.

“If you were following me since 2002, you would know that I have been doing phenomenal things since I was 15,” the 26-yearold Bolt said. “I was the youngest person to win the world juniors at 15. I ran the world junior (200) record 19.93 at 17 … I have broken every record there is to break, in every event I have ever done.”

Powell and Simpson tested positive for the stimulant oxilofrone at Jamaica’s national cham-

pionships in June. Discus thrower Allison Randall and two other athletes also returned positives for banned substances at the same meet.

“It was surprising, definitely, what’s going on,” Bolt said. “I think there’s a lot of details that’s left to be discussed. So I’m just sitting and waiting to see the results and what’s what because there’s a lot of things that hasn’t been said and done yet.”

Bolt said he reached out through text message with Powell after the positive test was announced.

“I didn’t want to bombard him with questions,” Bolt said. “I told him, ‘Sorry to hear what was going on.’ And he said ‘Yes, it’s kind of rough, it’s hard.’

“And I just told him to stay strong and stay focused, and hopefully everything will work out.”

Powell was the last man to hold the 100-meter world record before Bolt broke it in 2008. He also helped the Jamaicans to the 4x100-meter relay gold medal at the 2008 Olympics.

In almost 20 minutes with reporters, Bolt avoided any direct criticism of his fellow athletes.

“In life things happen, people make mistakes, mishaps happen,” Bolt said in response to a question about doping sanctions.

‘This is real racing’ Austin Dillon wins on dirt at Eldora ROSSBURG, Ohio (AP) — Austin Dillon grabbed the golden shovel and scooped a pile of dirt.

His dirty work over, Dillon dumped the black clump in a small jar, a nice souvenir for a victory four decades in the making.

Dillon left the rest of the field in his dust to win NASCAR’s return to dirt racing in the Truck Series races at Eldora Speedway.

He pulled away in the green-white-checkered finish Wednesday night to complete a thrilling return to the muck of the clumpy dirt track.

“This is real racing right here,” said Dillon, a regular in the Nationwide Series who won for the fifth time in 53 career Truck starts.

The last time one of NASCAR’s top touring series competed on dirt was Sept. 30, 1970, when Richard Petty won a Sprint Cup — called the Grand National AP photo Division at that time — race at the North Carolina Brendan Steele watches his approach shot on the ninth hole during the first round at the Canadian Open golf tournament at Glen Abbey State Fairgrounds in Raleigh.

That drought ended with racing that started early in in Oakville, Ontario Thursday. the day and bled into late night at the Tony Stewartowned half-mile track.

Dillon was joined by his father, Mike, and his grandfather, owner Richard Childress, for the victory celebration.

“The coolest thing is, you’re out of control out there for a few laps,” Austin said. “You’re on the edge for every lap.”

Steele steals early lead OAKVILLE, Ontario (AP) — Brendan Steele topped the Canadian Open leaderboard Thursday at 7-under 65, birdieing five of the first seven holes on his back nine at Glen Abbey.

“I love being up here,” Steele said.

“I played in ‘06 and ‘07 on PGA Tour Canada now. And really, got me ready to play the Nationwide Tour, which I played in ‘08, ‘09 and ‘10. It was a great progression in my life. I had a great time up here. Made a lot of friends and spent two summers traveling the country.”

The 30-year-old American had eight birdies and a bogey, dropping a shot on his final hole — the par-4 ninth. He won the 2011 Texas Open for his long PGA Tour title.

“Really, just an overall good day,” Steele said. “Hit a lot of good shots and was able to hole some putts.

When you have a good round like that and you play that well, you kind of have everything going. But today was probably the most complete round that I’ve had all year, so that was kind of nice. Didn’t miss many greens, didn’t hit many shots off line, and I was able to roll a few putts in.”

Matt Kuchar, a two-time winner this year, was a stroke back along with Scott Gardiner and Scott Brown. Kuchar eagled the par-5 18th hole, his ninth hole of the day.

“It was fun to be out here. It was

perfect conditions,” Kuchar said. “I feel like last week, conditions were so challenging and so difficult at the British Open, to come here and to play golf that is more friendly and more what we’re used to the PGA Tour was great.

“The conditions are spectacular.

The course is in great shape. We had very little wind, good temperature, so it was a great opportunity. The par 5s are all attainable and birdieable.”

Gardiner was tied for the lead after eagleing the par-3 15th hole, but he bogeyed on the next hole.

“Actually, didn’t hit that bad a drive on 16, and went left and got stuck behind a tree and had to lay up,” Gardiner said. “And then I hit a pretty good. I missed a 4-foot putt.”

Hunter Mahan and David Lingmerth shot 67, and Chez Reavie, the 2008 winner at Glen Abbey, was another stroke back in a group that included Bubba Watson and Trevor Immelman.

“Gave myself a lot of good looks and the greens were rolling true,” Mahan said. “It’s in great shape right now. In the morning, we’ll have perfect conditions.”

Brandt Snedeker opened with a 70, and Ernie Els and defending champion Scott Piercy followed at 71. Piercy won last year at Hamilton Golf & Country Club.

Luke Donald, Charl Schwartzel and Canadian Mike Weir shot 73, Dustin Johnson struggled to a 75, and Graeme McDowell had a 76.

Brad Fritsch was the top Canadian at 69. David Hearn, a playoff loser this month in the John Deere Classic, followed at 70.

Pat Fletcher, born in England, was the last Canadian winner, taking the 1954 event at Point Grey in Vancouver. Carl Keffer is the only Canadian-born champion, winning in 1909 and 1914. Albert Murray, a Canadian also born in England, won in 1908 and 1913.

Fritsch birdied his final three holes.

“I think I hit less than 50 percent of the fairways, but I think that’s just the nature of this golf course,” Fritsch said. “I looked like I got some horrendous bounces. When I was expecting one way, it went the other, and that led to a little bit of frustration. But I stayed patient.”

• Senior British Open OAKVILLE, Ontario — Brendan Steele topped the Canadian Open leaderboard Thursday at 7-under 65, birdieing five of the first seven holes on his back nine at Glen Abbey.

The 30-year-old Steele had eight birdies and a bogey, dropping a shot on his final hole — the par-4 ninth.

Bengals n Continued from page 14

whose weight was listed at 342 pounds, expects to practice on Sunday.

Smith signed a three-year contract last April, allowing the Bengals to keep their offensive line intact. He was the only one who missed all of the team’s offseason workouts and a mandatory minicamp because of a personal issue. He had to watch practice on Thursday because of the calf injury.

“Hopefully I’ll be back on Sunday,” said Smith, wearing a floppy white sun hat. “I missed my team (in the offseason), most definitely, but as I told Marvin, I had some personal things I had to take care of. That’s pretty much it.

Everything’s fine. No more hiccups. I’ll be good.”

The coaches added things to the playbook in the offseason, and Smith wasn’t around to learn and practice them.

He thinks he can catch up quickly.

“I don’t have anything to worry about when it comes to football,” Smith said. “I pick up things really fast.”

His teammates were glad that he showed up for the start of camp so he could start catching up on what he missed.

“It is important,” quarterback Andy Dalton said. “He wasn’t here for OTAs and minicamp. I don’t know what the timetable is on him but I’m sure he will be back soon. It will be good for him to be playing football again.

“We’ve got to get everybody out there.”

Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick was cleared to fully participate in the first practice, which was a big moment for the first-round draft pick. Kirkpatrick hurt his left knee during workouts last summer, forcing him to miss all of training camp and the first half of the season. It bothered him again at the end of the season, limiting him to five games total.

“I’m probably the only guy in the country that’s excited about training camp,” Kirkpatrick said before the practice.
