City’s D.A.R.E. officer resigns Two other officers named SROs for coming year By Melanie Yingst

U.S. says won’t seek death penalty for Snowden WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder has told the Russian government that the U.S. will not seek the death penalty for former National Security Agency systems analyst Edward Snowden. In a letter dated July 23, the attorney general said the criminal charges Snowden faces do not carry the death penalty and that the U.S. will not seek the death penalty even if Snowden were charged with additional death penalty-eligible crimes.

Iraq’s security woes hit local economy BAGHDAD (AP) — Sunni truck driver Obeid Manaa had been hauling goods from neighboring countries to Baghdad for years but won’t go near the Iraqi capital after a Shiite militia gave a very specific warning. “If you enter Baghdad again we will chop your legs off,” one of the militiamen told a fellow Sunni truck driver recently.

Kirt Wright

TROY — Troy Police Department accepted the resignation of Officer Kirt Wright on Tuesday, according to the Troy Police Department’s Capt. Joe Long. Wright also served as the Troy

Long said Troy Junior High School school resource officer Chris Madigan also has been reassigned to the city of Troy’s detective division. Long said Officer Nick Freisthler will become the Troy City Schools’ elementary school resource officer for the 2013-2014 school year. Officer Jeff Waite will serve as the Troy Junior High School’s resource officer for the 2013-2014 school year. Both Waite and Freisthler previously served as patrolmen for the police department.

City School’s elementary schools’ school resource officer and D.A.R.E coordinator for the district. Wright served with the Troy Police Department for 14 years, according to Long. “We have had a resignation within our department,” Long said. “Wright resigned on his own free will.”

Spain train-crash driver accused of ‘recklessness’

“We took another look at the condition of the barn and decided if we were to do a paint job, it would only last about eight years before we’d have to address the issues again,” Drake said Thursday. Drake said the coat of paint for the barn was originally estimated to cost $9,000. The park department staff would provide the labor to install the siding. The siding and two new doors is set to cost approximately $8,000 and the siding includes a warranty, Drake said. “We decided if we installed the siding ourselves, it would be cheaper than the paint job and last a lot longer,” Drake said. “It just

SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA, Spain (AP) — Spanish police said Friday they have arrested the driver of the train that sped through a curve and toppled over, killing 78 people, and plan to question him over suspected reckless driving. As blame increasingly fell on the still-hospitalized driver over Spain’s deadliest railway crash in decades, authorities located the train’s so-called “black box” that is expected to shed further light on the disaster’s cause. Investigators said they would seek evidence of failings by Francisco Jose Garzon Amo, the 52-year-old driver, as well as the train’s internal speed-regulation systems in Wednesday’s derailment. The train company, Renfe, defended the driver Friday, lauding what it called his exhaustive experience. But the country’s railway agency, Adif, noted that the driver should have started slowing the train long before reaching the disastrous turn. In an interview with The Associated Press, an American passenger injured on the train said he saw on a TV monitor screen inside his car that the train was traveling 194 kph (121 mph) seconds before the crash — far above the 80 kph (50 mph) speed limit on the curve where it derailed. The passenger, 18-year-old Stephen Ward, said the train appeared to have accelerated, not decelerated. And Gonzalo Ferre, president of the rail infrastructure company Adif, said the driver should have started slowing the train 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) before reaching a dangerous bend that train drivers had been told to respect. “Four kilometers before the accident happened he already had warnings that he had to begin slowing his speed, because as soon as he exits the tunnel he needs to be traveling at 80 kilometers

City of Troy employees including Charlie Brown along with Marvin Epley and Kevin Pyers (both not pictured) install metal barn siding to eliminate painting at the Barn in the Park this week at the Troy Community Park.

New look for Barn

Troy landmark getting a facelift By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

TROY — From housing the final assembly of the historic WACO airplane to serving the city’s thespians, The Barn in the Park has been part of the city of Troy’s landscape for decades and now is undergoing a face lift to preserve its place in Troy Community Park for years to come. Located in Troy Community Park, The Barn in the Park is getting a new lease on its historic life by the city’s park department. According to the city of Troy’s Park Superintendent

Jeremy Drake, the barn’s facade will get a fresh coat of paint to maintain the historic look of the porch area and the rest of the building will have metal barn siding installed next week. Rotting wooden boards and other areas were rapidly deteriorating the barn’s exterior, Drake said. The condition of the exterior of the barn led the Drake to forgo the original plan for a coat of paint in the 2013 park budget. Instead, Drake revised the plan to install metal barn siding to seal the exterior of the historic building and saved $1,000 by doing the work inhouse.

Castro pleads guilty in Ohio kidnap case CLEVELAND (AP) — The man who imprisoned three women in his home, subjecting them to a decade of rapes and beatings, pleaded guilty Friday to 937 counts in a deal to avoid the death penalty. Ariel Castro told the judge he was addicted pornography, had a “sexual problem” and had been a sexual abuse victim himself long ago. In exchange for his plea, prosecutors recommended Castro be sentenced to life without parole plus 1,000 years. Castro, 53, said he understood that he would never get out of prison, saying he expected he was “going to get the book thrown at me.” He later added, “I knew that when I first spoke to the FBI agent when I first got arrested.” Castro, wearing glasses for the first time in court, was far more interactive than in previous court appearances when he mostly kept his head down and eyes closed. He answered

the judge’s questions in a clear, intelligible voice, saying he understood the proceedings and that he would never be released from prison.

Castro, who was born in Puerto Rico, said he could read and understand English well but had trouble with comprehension.

“My addiction to pornography and my sexual problem has really taken a toll on my mind.” He later said he had been a sexual abuse victim as a child, but the judge cut him off. Near the end of the 2 1/2-hour hearing, the judge accepted the pleas and declared Castro guilty. Sentencing was set for Thursday. The deal comes more than a month after a statement issued on behalf of the women said they were “hopeful for a just and prompt resolution” and had “great faith in the prosecutor’s office and the court.” Castro had been scheduled for trial Aug. 5 on a 977-count indictment, but 40 counts were dropped as part of the plea deal. The indictment included two counts of aggravated murder related to accusations that he punched and starved one woman until she miscarried. The former school bus

Egypt accuses ousted president in 2011 jailbreak CAIRO (AP) — Prosecutors opened an investigation of ousted President Mohammed Morsi on charges including murder and conspiracy with the Palestinian militant group Hamas, fueling tensions amid a showdown in the streets between tens of thousands of backers of the military and supporters calling for the Islamist leader’s reinstatement. Clashes between Morsi supporters and opponents erupted outside a major mosque in the coastal city of Alexandria, with the two sides throwing stones and firing birdshot at each other. Police and army forces lobbed tear gas and deployed soldiers but were unable to break up the fighting, which killed two people and injured 24. Minor scuffles erupted in a Cairo neighborhood and in the Nile Delta city of Damietta with at least 18 injured, according to health officials. The announcement of the case against Morsi, which is likely to pave the way to a formal indictment, was the first word on his legal status since the military deposed him on July 3. For more than three weeks, the Islamist leader has been held by the military in a secret location, incommunicado. Supporters of Morsi denied the charges against him, calling them politically motivated but vowed to keep their protests peaceful.

On Friday, a spokesman for Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood said the move to prosecute Morsi showed “the complete bankruptcy of the leaders of the bloody coup.” Egyptians “reject the return of the dictatorial police state and all the repression, tyranny and theft it entails,” Ahmed Aref said in a statement. The accusations are connected to a prison break during the 2011 uprising against autocrat Hosni Mubarak in which gunmen attacked a prison northwest of Cairo, freeing prisoners including Morsi and around 30 other figures from his Muslim Brotherhood. The prosecutors allege Morsi and the Brotherhood worked with Hamas to carry out the break, in which 14 guards were killed. The U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki expressed deep concern about reports of Morsi’s detention. “I can’t speak to the specific charges. But we do believe that it is important that there be a process to work toward his release,” she said. “Clearly, this process should respect the personal security of him and take into account the volatile political situation in Egypt and that’s where our focus is. We have conveyed publicly and privately that his personal security and treatment is of utmost importance.”

BUSINESS ROUNDUP

n Continued from page 1 made economical sense.” The traditional red barn aesthetic will remain the same as before with the siding, according to Drake. A vapor barrier has already been applied to the exterior of the barn and will protect the building from moisture. “It’s going to be air tight now,” Drake said. “The vapor barrier will help with the heating costs inside the barn itself.” During the park tour with park board members, Drake pointed out several areas of wood in various states of deterioration around the wooden structure. Approximately 28 original barn windows and three unused doors will be covered by the siding project. Drake said the three

entrances were never used by the building’s patrons and closing them off will help keep air and moisture leaks from further damaging to its exterior. “It will still have the same look,” Drake said. “We are keeping all the character in the front the same with a fresh coat of paint.” Drake also said the building had a bat problem. With the siding project, Drake said the building will be sealed and animals, such as bats, will no longer be a nuisance in the building. Drake said Charlie Brown of the park department has spearheaded the project along with seasonal help. The project is expected to be complete in approximately three weeks.

— Information provided by the Troy Historical Society According to the Troy Historical Society, The Barn in the Park, as it is now known, was previously a final assembly barn for the WACO airplane. In the years of 1923 through 1928, WACO became the largest manufacture of aircraft in the nation. In 1925, Waco would build two airplanes a day, an outstanding number in the time before automation and advance machinery. Planes were assembled in what is now known as the Barn in the Park. The barn may have been dubbed Plant 4 in 1927. When Hobart Arena was built, the barn was relocated from its original site to Troy Community Park across the street. The barn is now home to the Troy Civic Theatre and is known as the Barn in the Park.

n Continued from page 1 per hour,” Ferre said. At the scene, hundreds of onlookers watched as crews used a crane

Friday to hoist smashed and burned-up cars onto flat-bed trucks to cart them away. The shattered

front engine had been tipped back upright but remained resting beside the tracks, just yards from

the passage of resumed train traffic. Grieving families gathered for funerals near the site of the crash in Santiago de Compostela, a site of Catholic pilgrimage that had been preparing to celebrate its most revered saint, James. Those annual festivities planned for Thursday were canceled. Police lowered the death toll Friday to 78 as forensic scientists matched body parts. They previously had identified 80 dead. Amo was arrested Thursday night in the hospital. Photographs indi-

cated he had suffered a head wound in the crash. Jaime Iglesias, police chief of Spain’s northwest Galicia region, said Amo would be questioned “as a suspect for a crime linked to the cause of the accident.” When asked, Iglesias described Amo’s alleged offense as “recklessness.” He declined to elaborate. The driver is under police guard but has yet to be interviewed. That might be delayed because of his medical treatment, Iglesias said. Renfe said Amo is a 30-year employee of the state train company, who

became an assistant driver in 2000 and a fully qualified driver in 2003. Amo had driven trains past the spot of the accident around 60 times and “the knowledge of this line that he had to have is exhaustive,” Renfe’s president, Julio Gomez-Pomar, said in a TV interview. Iglesias said police took possession of the train’s “black box,” which is expected to shed light on why it was going faster than the speed limit. The box will be handed over to the investigating judge, Iglesias said, adding that the box had not been opened yet.

Castro to tear down his house within a month. McGinty said the plan is to also tear down two abandoned houses next door and acquire a vacant lot for a park. McGinty rejected attempts by Castro to portray himself a victim of a sex addiction. “He’s a coward and he’s nowhere near the truth,” McGinty said. “He’s in his own world and it’s not a world of regret and remorse. He feels sorry for one person and one person only — himself.” The three women disappeared separately between 2002 and 2004, when they were 14, 16 and 20 years old. Each said they had accepted a ride from Castro, who remained friends with the family of one of the women and even attended vigils over the years marking her disappearance. The women escaped Castro’s house May 6 when one of them kicked out part of a door and called to neighbors for help. Castro was arrested within hours and has remained behind bars. News that Amanda Berry, Gina Dejesus and Michelle Knight had been found alive electrified the Cleveland area, where two of them were house-

hold names after years of searches, publicity and vigils. But elation soon turned to shock as allegations about their treatment began to emerge. Castro fathered a 6-year-old daughter with Berry, authorities said. They allege that on the day the child was born, Christmas 2006, Castro raped one of the other women, who had helped deliver the baby. Berry told authorities that she, her child and the other women never saw a doctor during their captivity. Knight said her five pregnancies ended after Castro starved and repeatedly punched her. The Associated Press does not usually identify people who may be victims of sexual assault, but the names of the three women were widely circulated after they disappeared, and they appeared in an online video thanking the public for its support. The judge read their names in court Friday as the hearing was carried live on national cable news. Since their rescue, the women have sought to stay out of sight and have appealed for privacy.

driver also was charged with hundreds of counts of kidnapping and rape, plus assault and other counts. He was accused of repeatedly restraining the women, sometimes chaining them to a pole in a basement, to a bedroom heater or inside a van. The charges alleged Castro assaulted one woman with a vacuum cord around her neck when she tried to escape. The sticking point on a plea deal had been whether the prosecutor would rule out the death penalty. Assistant Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Blaise Thomas said he wants to make sure Castro will never see the girl he fathered with one of his victims.

Johnston Farm Museum project moving forward PIQUA — The Johnston Farm Friends Council says it is pleased with the response from Piqua and the surrounding area to the planned upgrade and renovation of the Historic Indian and Canal Museum. As visitation and requests for use of the museum has increased, it became apparent that more space was needed. By converting the outdoor patio space on the east side of the museum to a new room, this need will be met. The patio space will be complete with its own climate controls to allow year-round use. There will be space set aside for use by caterers who may be serving visitors. “The real highlight of the project will be the installation of state-ofthe-art audio visual equipment that will allow our staff the ability to use this space for classroom

or programming. This is something that we have never had,” said site manager Andy Hite. Since this space overlooks the Miami and Erie Canal, the current canal era exhibits, as well as additional items, will be relocated to the new space. “What better way to share information about Ohio’s canals than in a modern space overlooking the canal itself?” said Jim Oda, president of the Johnston Farm Friends Council. The renovated area also will be able to be converted to a meeting space for any number of uses by the public. The space currently housing the canal exhibits will then be converted to an area to allow the installation of rotating exhibits. One group of very exciting exhibits would be the story of Ohio’s Six Historic tribes

from the early 1800s to the present. The project is being co-funded by the Ohio Historical Society, which has committed $42,000 to the project, as well as a lead gift to the Ohio Historical Society of $25,000 by the Duke Foundation. The balance of the $167,000 project is being funded locally by the Johnston Farm Friends Council. The Friends are soliciting private gifts as well as seeking corporate and foundation support.

Ohio gun group raises $12,000 for George Zimmerman fund COLUMBUS (AP) — An Ohio firearms group has raised more than $12,000 to be spent on guns or a security system for George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch volunteer who was acquitted of all charges in the fatal shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin in Florida. But the money could end up being used to pay for Zimmerman’s defense costs and fees. The $12,150.37 check that the group has written out to Zimmerman is the result of a fundraising effort that was launched because the group believes Zimmerman’s gun rights are being violated by the U.S. Department of Justice. The department has taken all the evidence from the trial, including the gun that killed Martin, as part of a civil rights investigation. Zimmerman was acquitted earlier this month of second-degree murder and manslaughter charges in the 2012 shooting of Martin in a gated community in Sanford, Fla., near Orlando. Zimmerman,

29, told police he shot Martin, 17, only after the black teenager physically attacked him; Martin’s family and supporters say Zimmerman, who identifies himself as Hispanic, racially profiled Martin as a potential criminal and wrongly followed him. The verdict sparked protests and calls for federal officials to charge Zimmerman with violating Martin’s civil rights. Zimmerman’s brother and one of his attorneys have said he receives threats and is concerned about his safety. The check sent to Zimmerman from the Buckeye Firearms Foundation is meant to be spent on guns, ammunition, protective gear or a security system, said Ken Hanson, the group’s legal chairman. “The Department of Justice refused to return him his gun, and he’s in need of protection,” Hanson said. “The money is intended to be used for anything he needs to defend himself or his fam-

ily. He has complete discretion on how to use the money.” The cashier’s check was sent through certified mail and is scheduled to be delivered Friday. Zimmerman’s spokesman, Shawn Vincent, said before his acquittal all donations he received were deposited into a fund dedicated to pay for his legal defense costs and fees and managed by an independent administrator. He said the Ohio foundation’s check could be allocated similarly. Vincent would not say what the donations to the fund have amounted to. But he said they have exceeded the $120,000 that Zimmerman’s attorneys had said was needed to put on a good defense before the trial started in May. The fund had raised almost $315,000 in January. The foundation’s fundraiser, which began last week, ended Tuesday. Hanson said donations were sent from 48 states and three other countries.

Israeli store opening focuses West Bank anger RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — It’s not often that model Bar Refaeli gets a cold reception. But when a black-and-white poster of the smiling Israeli beauty went up last week in the West Bank city of Ramallah, it became a target of Palestinian anger because of the message that accompanied her picture: “Fox: Coming Soon.” Fox is a popular Israeli clothing chain, and the opening of an officially branded store in Ramallah seemed to cross an unspoken red line. It’s a reminder of the schizophrenic economic life in the Palestinian territories. Though the region is flooded with Israeli goods, the brands can both be respected for their quality and resented for their symbolism. The advertisement launched a social media firestorm, with one person even suggesting firebombing a store that sells trendy clothes and jeans. Hosts on the normally deferential Voice of Palestine radio station even made heated comments on about the potential opening. On Monday, the sign was gone.

Neighbors said they have not seen the owner at the store in several days, suggesting he might be keeping a low profile because of the controversy. In a region of symbols, the image of the 28-year-old Refaeli also carries its own hang-ups. The model has appeared in public relations campaigns by the Israeli Foreign Ministry and frequently talks up her Israeli identity in the media, matters not lost on Palestinian social media critics. Yet despite the uproar, Fox is already a popular brand in the Palestinian territories. Store owners stock Fox products even in Hamas-controlled Gaza, where the government is far more hostile to Israel. “People in Gaza know that these items are made in Israel, but they buy them because they’re good quality,” said shopkeeper Raji Isaac, who has offered Fox products in his Gaza City store for the past four years. “Customers always look for good products and reasonable prices, and Fox is offering that.”

Question: Should George Zimmerman have been found guilty or not guilty?

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Los Angeles Times on trying again in the Mideast: Like second marriages, attempts by the United States to promote a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians represent a triumph of hope over experience. But Secretary of State John F. Kerry, who has engaged in his own version of shuttle diplomacy in recent weeks, deserves credit for bringing the two sides back to the bargaining table. He announced Friday that Israeli and Palestinian negotiators would meet in Washington for initial talks within a week or so. Of course, this initiative could unravel. On Sunday, a Palestinian spokesman warned that talks would be “conditioned on many clarifications about core issues” and that several “sticking points” remained unresolved. But Kerry obviously was confident enough to go public with the announcement, and there are indications that he has been able to finesse objections from both sides that have previously blocked the resumption of talks. For example, while Israel may not formally agree to suspend settlement activity in the West Bank, in practice it may be willing to exercise restraint. The outlines of a so-called final-status agreement have been obvious for decades and can be found in dusty briefing books dating to the Clinton administration. The Palestinians would finally get an independent state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, in exchange for recognizing Israel and relinquishing the dream of a universal “right of return” for the descendants of those displaced when Israel was created after World War II. … It is true that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has always been skeptical of a two-state solution, and that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is a weak and unpopular leader (who does not even control the Gaza Strip, which is ruled by Hamas). But these complications needn’t be fatal to a resumption of negotiations. For the Palestinians, an agreement would mean not only a long-dreamed-of state but an unprecedented infusion of economic and technical assistance. And a deal would allow Israel to remain both a Jewish and a democratic state, and would spare the country from the condemnations its occupation of the West Bank has provoked in Europe and the U.S. — a source of embarrassment and anger for many Israelis. It’s a truism that the United States can’t dictate a peace agreement to the Israelis and Palestinians. But this country possesses unique leverage that administrations of both parties have exerted in the cause of a lasting peace. Kerry’s initiative is in that tradition. We hope it succeeds. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on U.S. intervention would come at too high a price and Syria’s cost: A letter from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee on the high cost of military intervention in Syria has probably put an end to any ideas of the United States taking such action. The letter Friday from Gen. Martin E. Dempsey to Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., cited the experience of the United States in Iraq and Afghanistan and detailed the effort needed to overthrow the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad. Mr. Dempsey said hundreds of U.S. aircraft, ships and submarines would be used by thousands of American troops to make airstrikes, launch missiles, maintain no-fly zones and train Syria’s opposition forces. He said training alone would cost $500 million a year. Air action would cost $1 billion a month. Mr. Dempsey said that such action would be “an act of war,” which would entail risks to Jordan, a neighboring U.S. ally, and could backfire in terms of overall U.S. policy. His message came as the Syrian opposition continued to lose ground to Assad regime forces. One of the opposition’s major problems is its divisions. Analysts say there may be up to 1,500 groups that make up the opposition. In principle they exist to some extent under the umbrella Free Syrian Army, but any unity among them is very tentative. A July 11 incident in which a jihadist group assassinated a senior Free Syrian Army officer underlined the depth of the divisions and the problems confronting the United States or other countries in trying to support them. The CIA continues to give covert training and small arms to the opposition.

Time to get to work on North Market Street To the Editor: I would like to ask a question that maybe our civic leaders could address. How much longer until North Market Street is open? We were told it would be open by Strawberry Festival, but obviously that didn’t happen — not even close. I hope they realize what a major inconvenience it is for those of us who live on this side of town to have to go all the way around past Troy Junior High School and Troy High School every time we want to come into downtown Troy. What’s even worse is the fact that so many days when I drive by and look at the workers, I see a lot of standing around.

Sometimes I’ll see up to three or four workers leaning back on their trucks and cracking jokes when they could be working to finish up this project. I hope they realize there’s a pretty big concert coming up here next month and it sure would be nice if they could get it fixed before then. I think traffic is going to be difficult enough without having the street closed down. And then we’ve also got the opening of school to look forward to as well. How about we see a little less talk and a little more action in getting this project done? — Michael Adams Troy

Here are five things I want back from my childhood I was helping my three-yearold daughter get ready for preschool this week. I laid out a few outfits for her to choose from (because if it were up to her she’d wear her Tinkerbell costume and snowboots every day) and went to go finish making her lunch. She’s been on this extreme independence kick where you’re not allowed to help her get ready, because she’s a “big girl” now. She’s pretty good at dressing herself, save for the occasional backwards pair of shorts or mismatched socks. But this time, rather than donning one of the outfits I’d placed for her to select from, she came out dressed in a Hello Kitty pajama top, a pair of plaid capris, her poofy, frilly, orange skirt with glittery polka dots and bright sparkly pink shoes. She twirled around and asked me if she looked pretty and did I like her outfit. Of course she was pretty, she’s three, happy and could make a potato sack look good – but it was the carelessness in her question, the whimsy in which she twirled – that I envied.

As a child we love openly and fully, because we don’t know any better. Perhaps, even as adults, we should try not to know better. Imagine how much happier we would all be if we could find the joy again in seeing a butterfly, in painting a pretty picture or in reading a good story. How much easier life could be if we lived a little more in the moment and stressed less about the future. How better we would feel about ourselves if we didn’t know to care what other people thought of us. Imagine how much more love there would be if we didn’t know the hurt, or rather, if we chose to overlook it, if we chose to just trust in love. Childhood is often the happiest part of our entire lives. So why not bring a little whimsy back into our lives? Amanda Stewart appears Saturdays in the Troy Daily News.

AP Photo Riot police guard gay rights activists who were beaten by anti-gay protesters during an authorized gay rights rally in St. Petersburg, Russia, in this June 29 file photo. Earlier in the year, President Vladimir Putin signed a law that will impose hefty fines for holding gay pride rallies or providing information about the gay community to minors.

UN human rights office unveils gay-rights campaign tortured and killed earlier this month in an attack his friends suspect was related to his activism. South Africa, in contrast, does not criminalize homosexuality and allows same-sex marriage, yet is plagued by extensive anti-gay violence, including frequent rapes of lesbians. However, the new awareness campaign will extend worldwide, reflecting the challenges faced by gays in many countries. In Russia, President Vladimir Putin recently signed a law that will impose hefty fines for holding gay pride rallies or providing information about the gay community to minors. In Haiti, gay-rights leaders say their community has been targeted by a recent series of threats. In Montenegro, several hundred people on Wednesday attacked the Balkan nation’s first-ever gay pride rally, throwing rocks and bottles at activists while some yelled, “Kill the gays.” “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights promises a world in which everyone is born free and equal in dignity and rights — no exceptions, no one left behind,” Pillay said. “Yet it’s still a hollow promise for many millions of LGBT people forced to confront hatred, intolerance, violence and discrimination on a daily basis.” Among the dignitaries throwing their support behind “Free & Equal” was retired Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who in the 1980s was a prominent leader of the struggle to end South Africa’s apartheid system of racial segregation and white-minority rule.

NEW YORK (AP) — Amid a surge of anti-gay violence and repression in several countries, the United Nations’ human rights office on Friday launched its first global outreach campaign to promote tolerance and greater equality for lesbians, gays, transgender people and bisexuals. Called Free & Equal, it’s an unprecedented effort by the Office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights to change public attitudes around the world on issues that have bitterly divided the U.N.’s own member states. The multi-pronged campaign — announced at a news conference in Cape Town, South Africa — will include videos and public-service announcements distributed through social media, a new website, a series of fact sheets, and engagement by celebrities well-known in different regions of the world. “Changing attitudes is never easy… It begins with often difficult conversations,” said Navi Pillay, the high commissioner for human rights. “And that is what we want to do with this campaign. Free & Equal will inspire millions of conversations among people around the world and across the ideological spectrum.” There were multiple reasons for choosing South Africa as the news conference venue. It is Pillay’s home country, and is a leading nation on a continent where discrimination and violence against LGBT people is widespread. In Cameroon, for example, two men were sentenced to prison this week for gay sex, and a gay rights activist was

With his half-shaved head, jeans and tattoos, Lentz doesn’t look like the typical religious leader. But with its concert-like atmosphere and appeal to a younger demographic, his congregation, Hillsong NYC, is one of the fastest growing evangelical churches in the city.

Unconventional pastor leads booming NYC megachurch NEW YORK (AP) — Carl Lentz is not your typical pastor. Along with his half shaved head and slicked back Mohawk, he’s dressed in his usual Sunday attire: black jeans and an unbuttoned denim shirt with a tank top underneath. His tattooed arms, including one with two guns crossed, peek out from under his rolled-up sleeves. His Hillsong Church NYC holds at least six sermons every Sunday in a ballroom-style concert venue that has hosted such bands as U2 and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. People squeeze into whatever space they can find and take notes on iPhones as Lentz marches across

the stage, peppering his sermon with Bible verses, jokes, pop music lines and street slang. “If you’re new to our church, we love you,” said the 34-year-old Lentz. “Don’t be alarmed by the craziness you see. One time somebody said, ‘Y’all are crazy in your church,’ and I said, ‘You ever seen you dance drunk? Don’t be judging us up in church.’” New York has become a magnet for startup evangelical churches in recent years. There are currently more than 200 in Manhattan alone, according to Tony Carnes of the research project, A Journey Through NYC Religions, and Hillsong is one of the fastest growing.

Pope tells young in Rio to treasure the elderly

AP Photo Pope Francis greets people from his popemobile as he arrives to Sao Joaquim square in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Friday. Pope Francis is on the fifth day of his trip to Brazil where he will attend the 2013 World Youth Day in Rio.

ety. Even now as pope, he calls a group of youths in a Buenos Aires detention center every two weeks just to keep in touch. In the park, a white tent was set up to receive the faithful for confession, with small makeshift confessionals off to the side. Five youths, chosen through a raffle, were selected for confession, a sacrament in which Catholics confess their sins and are forgiven. “It was just five minutes, it followed the regular ritual of confession, but then Francis stayed and talked with us,” said one of the five, Estefani Lescano, 21, a student from La Guaira,

older Catholics have the “wisdom of life” to share that shouldn’t be discarded. “This relationship and this dialogue between generations is treasure to be preserved and strengthened,” he said Friday. Francis started off the day, his fifth in Rio, by hearing confessions from a half-dozen young pilgrims in a Rio park and met privately with a group of juvenile detainees, a priority of his ever since his days as archbishop of Buenos Aires and an expression of his belief that the church must reach out to the most marginalized and forgotten of soci-

Venezuela. “It was all very personal. He told us that young people have the responsibility of keeping the church alive and spreading the word of Christ.” The sun finally came out on Friday, ending four days of rain that soaked pilgrims and forced the relocation of the festival’s culminating Mass on Sunday. Instead, the Mass and the Saturday night vigil that precedes it will take place at Copacabana Beach rather than the mud pit covering the original site in Guaratiba, some 50 kilometers (30 miles) west of central Rio. The improved weather bode well for Friday’s main

event, the evening Way of the Cross procession reenacting Christ’s crucifixion, held improbably at Copacabana, ground zero for hedonism in the city. It will be a chance for Francis to show his more spiritual side, a day after he demonstrated his rebel streak by urging young Catholics to shake up the church and make a “mess” in their dioceses by going out into the streets to spread the faith. It’s a message he put into practice by visiting one of Rio’s most violent slums. Rio officials and organizers of the World Youth Day, meanwhile, came under withering criticism for disorganization, raising questions about the city’s ability to host future megaevents, such as the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympics. Within minutes of the pope’s arrival Monday, his motorcade took a wrong turn and got stuck in traffic, allowing a mob to swarm the pope’s car. On Wednesday, the subway shut down for two hours, stranding tens of thousands of pilgrims head-

ing to an official World Youth Day welcome. On Thursday, several subway stations were closed around Copacabana before the pope’s first official appearance at the youth fest, forcing some of the 1 million in attendance to walk several kilometers to find alternate transportation. “We had to wait literally all day to get the welcome packet,” said Christina Wegman, a 17-year-old from Amarillo, Texas. “And when I say all day, I mean from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. The lines were really long.” Her friend Chelsea Perez, a 16-year-old also from Amarillo, said she had problems with the accommodations, a school where they’ve been sleeping 17 to a small room. “It’s really hot, really tiny and I really haven’t been sleeping much,” she said. “But the good part is that I’ve made friends from Italy, from France, from Brazil, from all over. Seeing how God can bring us together and make us a family, it’s amazing.”

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Pope Francis praised the elderly during the Catholic Church’s festival of youth Friday, saying grandparents are critical for passing on wisdom and religious heritage and are a “treasure to be preserved and strengthened.” Francis has made a point of not just focusing on the next generation of Catholics during World Youth Day, but on the older generation as well. It’s part of his longstanding work caring for the elderly in Argentina, the crucial role his own grandmother played in his spiritual development and the gentle deference he shows his predecessor, Benedict XVI. Speaking from the balcony of the residence of Rio’s archbishop, Francis noted that Friday is celebrated as Grandparent’s Day in much of the world and that young people should take the occasion to honor and thank their grandparents for the wisdom they share. “How important grandparents are for family life, for passing on the human and religious heritage which is so essential for each and every society!” he said. Francis spoke about the important “bridge” between young and old in his brief remarks to journalists en route to Rio, saying young Catholics have the strength to bring the church forward while

ARLO & JANIS

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Sunday, July 28, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a lovely, playful day. Join others in fun activities. Romance can flourish, including love at first sight. (It's a poor day to spend money, except on food and fun.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a great day to entertain at home. Invite the gang over for good food and drinks. However, don't buy goodies for the home and family, because this is a poor day to shop. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Writers, actors and teachers can benefit today because they are in touch with their muse. Make the most of this talent through your communication with others. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Although you might boost your income or see ways to earn more money, this is actually a poor day for important financial decisions. It's also a poor day to shop. (But it's a fun day!) LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You feel good about yourself today. A dawning awareness of your good fortune (especially compared to millions on this planet) makes you appreciate who you are. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a wonderful day to appreciate who you are and what you have. Hidden resources or behind-the-scenes assistance will enrich your life and make you feel fortunate. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A popular day for Libras! Get out and mingle. Enjoy schmoozing, especially in groups. New romance and certainly new friendships are possible. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) It's easy to make a great impression on others today, especially bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs. Someone might ask for your creative input about something. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Travel for pleasure will delight you today. Enjoy meeting people from different cultures and other countries. In fact, romance with someone "different" could begin. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Gifts, goodies and favors from others will come your way today, so keep your pockets open. However, postpone important decisions about inheritances and shared property. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Relations with others, especially partners and close friends, will be warm and friendly today. In fact, you will enjoy dealing with members of the general public and practically everyone you meet. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Something will happen today that might improve your health. Or you might meet someone who can advise you on how to improve your health. Keep your eyes peeled. YOU BORN TODAY You're a romantic, dynamic individual. You have excellent social skills and a sense of how to deal with others. You appreciate the arts and will support them or be involved in some way. You're resourceful and organized because you know these tools help you get what you want. This year an important change will take place, perhaps something as significant as what happened around 2004. Birthdate of: Beatrix Potter, author; Terry Fox, inspirational hero; Gerard Manley Hopkins, poet.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, July 27, the 208th day of 2013. There are 157 days left in the year. On this date: In 1789, President George Washington signed a measure establishing the Department of Foreign Affairs, forerunner of the Department of State. In 1861, Union Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan took command of the Army of the Potomac during the Civil War. In 1866, Cyrus W. Field finished laying out the first successful underwater telegraph cable between North America and Europe. A previous cable in 1858 burned out after only a few weeks' use. In 1909, during the first official test of the U.S. Army's first airplane, Orville Wright flew himself and a passenger, Lt. Frank Lahm, above Fort Myer, Va., for one hour and 12 minutes. In 1921, Canadian researcher Frederick Banting and his assistant, Charles Best, succeeded in isolating the hormone insulin at the University of Toronto. In 1940, Bugs Bunny made his "official" debut in the Warner Bros. animated cartoon "A Wild Hare." In 1942, during World War II, the First Battle of El Alamein in Egypt ended in a draw as Allied forces stalled the progress of Axis invaders. The Allies went on to win a clear victory over the Axis in the Second Battle of El Alamein later that year. In 1960, Vice President Richard M. Nixon was nominated for president on the first ballot at the Republican National Convention in Chicago. In 1967, President Lyndon B. Johnson appointed the Kerner Commission to assess the causes of urban rioting, the same day black militant H. Rap Brown said in Washington that violence was "as American as cherry pie." In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee voted 27-11 to adopt the first of three articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon, charging he had personally engaged in a course of conduct designed to obstruct justice in the Watergate case. In 1980, on day 267 of the Iranian hostage crisis, the deposed Shah of Iran died at a military hospital outside Cairo, Egypt, at age 60. In 1996, terror struck the Atlanta Olympics as a pipe bomb exploded at Centennial Olympic Park, directly killing one person and injuring 111. Anti-government extremist Eric Rudolph later pleaded guilty to the bombing.

US govt says won’t seek death penalty for Snowden WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder has told the Russian government that the U.S. will not seek the death penalty for former National Security Agency systems analyst Edward Snowden. In a letter dated July 23, the attorney general said the criminal charges Snowden faces do not carry the death penalty and that the U.S. will not seek the death penalty even if Snowden were charged with additional death penalty-eligible crimes. Holder says his letter follows news reports that Snowden, who leaked information on largely secret electronic surveillance programs, has filed papers seeking temporary asylum in Russia on grounds that if he were returned to the United States, he would be tortured and would face the death penalty. The attorney general’s letter was sent to Alexander Vladimirovich Konovalov, the Russian minister of justice. Holder’s letter is part of an ongoing campaign by the U.S. government to get Snowden back. The attorney general’s letter may allay reported Russian concerns about how Snowden might be treated if he is deported to the U.S. Some Russian politicians, including parliament speaker Sergei Naryshkin,

have said Snowden should be granted asylum to protect him from the death penalty. If Snowden were to go to a country that opposes the death penalty, providing assurances that the U.S. won’t seek the death penalty may remove at least one obstacle to his return to the U.S. “I can report that the United States is prepared to provide to the Russian government the following assurances regarding the treatment Mr. Snowden would face upon return to the United States,” Holder wrote. “First, the United States would not seek the death penalty for Mr. Snowden should he return to the United States.” In addition, “Mr. Snowden will not be tortured. Torture is unlawful in the United States,” Holder’s letter said. The attorney general said that if Snowden returned to the U.S. he would promptly be brought before a civilian court and would receive “all the protections that United States law provides.” Holder also said that “we understand from press reports and prior conversations between our governments that Mr. Snowden believes that he is unable to travel out of Russia and must therefore take steps to legalize his status. That is not accurate; he is able to travel.”

After tedious trip, giant magnet reaches Illinois lab

AP Photo In this undated photo provided by Brookhaven National Laboratory, a bird’s-eye view of the Muon g-2 ring, 50-foot electromagnet, is ready to be transported across the Brookhaven National Laboratory site on New York’s Long Island. The gigantic electromagnet ended its tedious journey early Friday at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, near Chicago, where it will be used to study blazing-fast particles.

BATAVIA, Ill. (AP) — A 50-foot wide electromagnet that resembles the glowing flying saucer that took E.T. home stopped pre-dawn traffic along a suburban Chicago interstate Friday as it completed the last leg of its 3,200-mile trip over land and sea to arrive at its new home. The 50-ton electromagnet is the largest in the world and will help study blazing-fast particles at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, outside Chicago. Its journey from New York, however, wasn’t so fast. It was more of a meandering $3.5 million road trip, complete with taking its photo with landmarks and a special Twitter hashtag to keep fans apprised. Without twisting even an eighth of an inch, the giant magnet was

strapped to a specially made 16-axel flatbed truck for its final leg and traveling at a mere 5 to 15 mph. A behemoth bumper sticker informed puzzled onlookers that it was “driving discovery in particle physics.” It started its trip at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York in late June. From there, the massive magnet floated down the East Coast into the Gulf of Mexico — where it outran a tropical depression — then up the Mississippi River to Illinois. From there it moved at a nearly glacial pace escorted by tow trucks, police vehicles and gawkers who lined the route to take photos. It finally rolled into the suburban Chicago lab shortly after 4 a.m. Friday with an “oversize load” sign and a waving American flag. Along the way, even a slight

twist could permanently damage the magnet, which cannot be disassembled. The cost to replace it has been estimated at $30 million. The magnet had to ride out rough weather in Norfolk, Va., and then encountered more bad weather in the Gulf. “We had to hurry up and get going through the Gulf of Mexico and really have the tugboat pour it on,” said Terry Emmert Jr., vice president of Emmert International, which moved the magnet across the country. Fermilab officials plan to use the magnet in a physics experiment called Muon g-2 and will use it to study subatomic particles. They’re throwing the magnet a welcome home party Friday afternoon, complete with food, handson exhibits and a special group photo.

Striking back against court’s Voting Rights ruling 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.” 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 said the Obama administration seemed to be “sowing racial divide” and accused the administration of joining Texas Democrats with an eye on the 2014 elections. 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 and “beyond 10 years in the event of further discriminatory acts,” the department said in a court filing in San Antonio. 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. Unlike in other parts of the voting law, the discriminatory effect of an action is not enough to trigger the socalled bail-in provision. 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 Republican-dominated 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.

Iraq’s worsening security woes hit local economy BAGHDAD (AP) — Sunni truck driver Obeid Manaa had been hauling goods from neighboring countries to Baghdad for years but won’t go near the Iraqi capital after a Shiite militia gave a very specific warning. “If you enter Baghdad again we will chop your legs off,” one of the militiamen told a fellow Sunni truck driver recently. Now Manaa transfers his shipment to Shiite drivers to carry in. A spike in violence is spilling over to Iraq’s struggling economy, with an increasingly murky future making customers reluctant to spend and the re-emergence of sectarian threats forcing costly changes to the way business is done. The wave of violence is the deadliest since Iraq teetered on the edge of civil war half a decade ago. The bloodshed is linked to rising sectarian divisions between Iraq’s Sunni and Shiite and friction between the Arabs and Kurds, dampening hopes for a return to normalcy nearly two years after U.S. forces withdrew from the country. Just this week, 14 Shiite truck drivers and crew were killed with bullets to the head at a fake checkpoint set up by militants along a highway in a northern Sunni area. Some Shiite neighborhoods in Baghdad, meanwhile, are again becoming off-limits to Sunnis, particularly after word began spreading that Shiite militiamen were setting up fake checkpoints of their own. While the Interior Ministry has denied the claims, the threats remind Iraqis of the dark days of 2006 and 2007 when retaliatory killings between the sects were a daily routine. Insurgent attacks since April have killed more than 3,000 people, including more than 500 since the start of July. So truck drivers like Manaa have found ways to avoid the violence. Two safe zones were set up west of Baghdad in the towns of Abu Ghraib and Fallujah, where Sunni drivers can hand goods over to Shiite counterparts safely. Another unloading area is located in the Iraqi capital’s western Sunnidominated Ghazaliyah neighborhood. “Some Sunni drivers are willing to take the risk and enter Baghdad for the money, but I’m

not,” said Manaa, a 33-year-old father of four who uses the handover spots. He used to earn about $1,200 to $1,300 for each shipment from Jordan to Baghdad, but says his income has now dropped by some 80 percent because he doesn’t unload in Baghdad. Sectarian tensions have been boiling for months, inflamed by protests that began in December by Iraq’s Sunni minority over what they see as unfair treatment by the Shiiteled government. Violence surged after an April crackdown by security forces on a Sunni protest camp in the northern town of Hawija that killed 44 civilians and a member of the security forces, according to United Nations estimates. The unrest risks eating into much-needed economic growth, which the World Bank had been predicting would reach 9 percent this year. Sunni merchant Ekram Khairi has not traveled to Baghdad from his northern city of Mosul since the Hawija attacks, although the Iraqi capital has for years been his only destination for buying plastic products at wholesale markets for resale back home. He also quit coming to the capital in 2006, when sectarian bloodshed was at its peak, but began returning in 2008 as security started to improve. “I can be easily singled out by my accent,” said Khairi, a 41-yearold father of four. Since April, he’s been ordering goods by phone and Baghdad merchants send it to him by trucks. That makes it tougher to judge the quality of the goods and choose what might sell best.” Baghdad-based merchants say business hasn’t been this bad in years. They say the country’s economy, which started to improve in recent years on the back of an oil boom, is starting to feel stagnant because of the unrest. “I used to issue 50 receipts a week as of last year,” Hassan Ferari Shahin, who deals in marble and granite, said as he flipped through the remaining papers in his receipt book. “But since late December, we’ve issued only 38.” Shahin said people still have money, but “customers are afraid about tomorrow.” He said sales

were down nearly 75 percent since the beginning of this year compared with the same period last year. The Iraqi market was badly hit during the height of insurgency and sectarian bloodshed that erupted following the 2003 U.S.-led invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis fled the violence during that period by moving abroad or to the relatively peaceful northern Kurdish region, which is largely autonomous. Those who did stay mainly spent money only on necessities. Businesses closed early for security reasons and shipments of goods between provinces were frequently attacked by insurgents or criminals. As many cities started to become safer, the government was able to attract hesitant foreign companies mainly in the oil sector— the backbone of the economy— and hopes were high to have a healthy economy to end the legacy of wars. Several shopping malls, hotels and restaurants have opened since 2009, and Iraqis have been able to spend more hours in markets until late at night. One of those encouraged to expand was the Baghdad-based alWataniya Co. for Cars, which sells Porsches, Audis and Volkswagens. It has opened three showrooms and repair centers since 2010. S ales manager Mohammed al-Taweel said sales last year stood at around 30 cars a month from each showroom, but since the beginning of this year the three showrooms combined haven’t sold that many per month. “No one dares buy an expensive new car while things in the streets are so worrying,” alTaweel said in an empty Baghdad showroom. Property prices in Baghdad are also down 10 percent to 15 percent in value since early this year, according to agents. But for Fawzi Raheem, a wholesaler who distributes food items to more than 50 stores in Baghdad’s eastern New Baghdad neighborhood, it’s not gloom and doom. He said sales have increased 25 percent to 30 percent since June. “Iraqis never stop buying food whatever crisis they go through,” he said.

Bengals’ Green has bruised knee Expected to be sidelined for a few days CINCINNATI (AP) — An MRI found that Bengals All-Pro receiver A.J. Green has a bruised knee that will force him to miss several days of practice. Green hurt his left knee near the end of Cincinnati’s first practice of training camp on Thursday, overextending his left knee as he tried to make a sideline catch. Green said an MRI that found no structural damage. At first, he feared that it was a significant injury. A trainer examined the knee, and Green got up and walked off the field.

“It was (frightening) for me,” Green said on Friday. “I felt it, but everything felt intact. I got up and walked off, so it’s fine.” Coach Marvin Lewis said Green suffered a bruise inside the knee. “He’s getting treatment and will be sore,” Lewis said. “He won’t practice today, tomorrow and likely this weekend at all. Then we’ll go from there, when he’s ready. “At this point, I don’t see out in the future that being very • See BENGALS on page 14

Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Norv Turner, left, talks to quarterback Brandon Weeden during NFL football training camp at the team’s practice facility Thursday in Berea.

Second-year surge? Browns’ Weeden expects strong sophomore season

BEREA (AP) — His hair is still orangey, just a shade off the color of the Browns’ helmets. He’s still got that cannon right arm, the one that made the New York Yankees draft him and enabled him to throw 75 touchdown passes at Oklahoma State. Outwardly, Brandon Weeden looks the same. But he’s no longer a wide-eyed NFL rookie. And as Weeden enters his second pro season, he’s got experience, an offense catered to his strengths and a brand new outlook. Cleveland’s quarterback says he’s a changed man. “I feel like a completely different player,” he said. The Browns have their fingers crossed that Weeden, who was both efficient and erratic last season, can develop into

the long-term starter he was projected to be when the club selected the 29-year-old with the No. 22 overall pick in 2012. Weeden showed signs of being that guy last year, just not enough of them. He passed for 3,385 yards — a franchise rookie record — with 14 touchdowns, but there were too many moments when the game seemed to be moving much faster than Weeden, who may have been unfairly judged as part of an elite rookie QB class headlined by Robert Griffin III, Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson and Ryan Tannehill. Weeden was held to a standard he wasn’t quite ready to reach. However, Weeden believes he grew from last year and is eager to show the Browns — and

prove to some skeptical Cleveland fans — that he’s ready to take a major step forward. “It’s knowing what to expect,” Weeden said earlier this week. “I didn’t know anyone in the locker room (last year). I didn’t know the routine. There are just so many unknowns. Now I’ve been in it for a year, and I know how the weekly routine goes, and I’ve got myself into a routine.” Weeden seems to have the backing of Cleveland’s new coaching staff and an overhauled front office that didn’t draft him. Although first-year coach Rob Chudzinski has not yet named Weeden his starter, the rifle-armed QB opened training camp with a leg up on Jason Campbell and Brian Hoyer, two experienced veterans who give the Browns quality depth in case • See BROWNS on page 14

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The NASCAR Truck Series stop at Eldora Speedway this week created a lot of buzz that still hasn’t died down. The Ohio race was the first for NASCAR on a dirt track since Sept. 30 1970. Some drivers in Indianapolis for this weekend’s Brickyard race were talking Friday about a possible Sprint Cup series race at the track — someday. Clint Boyer, who is second in the Spring Cup Series standings, was part of the broadcast of Wednesday’s event on Speed TV. A part of him wanted to be in Eldora racing. “Basically, I was stuck in a cage in there in the Hollywood Hotel with my world racing out there and it was really hard to sit there and watch,” he said. “I thought the racing was good. Everybody was thinking, ‘Man, why is the track so dry-slick?’ It led to good racing.” Jeff Gordon watched every minute of it, too. Dale Earnhardt Jr. tried. He was on his way to New York and didn’t get to see the finish. “I had it recorded on my TV and it recorded an hour and a half of it, so I didn’t get to see the last segment,” he said. “It was some kind of communication error. But, that was disappointing to say the least because I had pretty much cut off all contact with anyone who might ruin the outcome for me.” He never got to see Austin Dillon capture the win. But a sold-out crowd at the half-mile dirt track owned by Tony Stewart saw everything. So did 1.4 million viewers on Speed TV. But the portion of the race Earnhardt was able to enjoy was enough to make an impact. “It was entertaining and exciting and something that was something that I hope to see more of,” Earnhardt said. “Just from a viewer’s standpoint.” The race was a hit for everyone. “Everywhere I’ve gone this week I’ve had people that are huge NASCAR fans and people that aren’t big NASCAR fans at all that watched it,” Gordon said. “And they were blown away. They did not expect it to go the way that it did.” And with the excitement that surrounded the race brings up a question: Is there a future at Eldora with NASCAR?

David to get fewer cracks at Goliath NEW YORK (AP) — College football’s Davids will get fewer chances to knock off the Goliaths in the coming years. Part of the fallout of the sweeping changes coming to college sports will be a decrease in so-called guarantee games in football, where a power conference school pays hundreds of thousands of dollars to have a team from a lesser league play at its stadium. The result will be far fewer opportunities for embarrassing blowouts (Oklahoma State 84, Savannah State 0) and startling upsets (Appalachian State 34, Michigan 32). Pac12 Commissioner Larry Scott said it would be good for college football and that he is “not very sympathetic” to the potential loss of revenue to the schools on the receiving end of the checks.

The commissioners of the lower-revenue conferences say losing the pay days won’t kill their leagues, and that giving players from smaller schools a chance to compete on the big stage has value. “Traditionally, we play the Big Ten a lot,” Mid-American Conference Commissioner Jon Steinbrecher said in a phone interview Friday. “We’re in the neighborhood so that makes a lot of sense.” MAC teams will play 13 games against Big Ten teams this season, plus four against the SEC and two each against the Big 12 and Atlantic Coast Conference, and many of them fall into the category of guarantee games. The shift to nine-game conference schedules, along with an increased emphasis on strength of schedule for the coming College Football Playoff, all but guaran-

tee fewer opportunities for the other five conferences (MAC, Sun Belt, Mountain West, American Athletic and Conference USA) in FBS to play the top five. Add in the need for the power conferences to beef up their schedules to create made-for-TV matchups to justify the millions they are getting in media rights deals, plus a possible reconfiguration of Division I, and it leads to speculation that the big five will be playing exclusively among themselves at some point. Scott shot down that idea and Steinbrecher doesn’t sound overly concerned about his teams not getting more than a few shots per season to knock off marquee programs. Steinbrecher said it’s more likely for the big five to trim FCS teams — the old

Division I-AA — from their schedules than the other FBS leagues. The Big Ten has said it would like eliminate all FCS games soon. And if schools from the big five are getting tired of cutting those big checks for home games, Steinbrecher has another solution. “We’d gladly give up the guarantee game and start a home-and-home,” he said. Patty Viverito runs the FCS Missouri Valley Conference football as senior associate commissioner. MVC teams such as Northern Iowa and North Dakota State frequently play Big Ten teams. Losing that revenue will be a challenge for her schools, she said. “But at this juncture there seems to be plenty of willing hosts,” she said. “We haven’t had too much difficulty in finding alternate opponents.”

Bail for Hernandez associate set at $500,000 ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) — Bail was set Friday at $500,000 cash for a so-called right-hand man of Aaron Hernandez who prosecutors say was with the former New England Patriots star on the night his friend was shot to death. Ernest Wallace appeared in Attleboro District Court on a charge of being an accessory after the fact to murder in Odin Lloyd’s killing. Defense attorney David Meier had sought bail of $10,000, arguing Wallace wasn’t a flight risk and wanted to return to his family in Florida. But Assistant District Attorney William McCauley asked for $1 million bail, saying Wallace was at risk of fleeing. He said Wallace had a long criminal history that included drug convictions and that he had used aliases and impersonated others. Meier wouldn’t comment after court, including about whether his client expected to make bail. Wallace, who had previously pleaded not guilty, was taken back into

custody following the hearing. Wallace, 41, did not speak during the proceeding, but mouthed “I love you” and “I miss you” to a woman watching in the courtroom. Prosecutors were pleased with the bail, said Gregg Miliote, a spokesman for Bristol County District Attorney Samuel Sutter. Hernandez, 23, has pleaded not guilty to murder in the death of Lloyd, a 27-year-old Boston semiprofessional football player whose body was found June 17 in an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez’s home. The two men were friends and Lloyd was dating the sister of Hernandez’s girlfriend. Prosecutors say Hernandez orchestrated Lloyd’s killing because he was upset at him for talking to people Hernandez had problems with at a nightclub days earlier. They say Hernandez, Wallace and a third man, Carlos Ortiz, drove with Lloyd to the industrial park. Authorities have not said who fired the shots, but according to documents filed in Florida, Ortiz told police that

Wallace said it was Hernandez. In court Friday, McCauley painted Wallace as having no fixed address and no job and said Hernandez appeared to be his “sole support.” He said Wallace has been described as Hernandez’s right-hand man, and that he had been spending more time at Hernandez’s house in the months before the killing, using a car Hernandez rented for him. McCauley also said Hernandez’s aunt provided financial assistance to Wallace after Lloyd’s death as he made his way south to Miramar, Fla., where his parents live. Wallace later turned himself in to police in Miramar. Friday’s hearing followed the release of court documents a day earlier that included photos of Hernandez in his home, holding what authorities have said was a gun, both before and minutes after Lloyd’s homicide. The photos came from Hernandez’s home video surveillance system and are among evidence authorities have obtained with search warrants.

AP PHOTO Ernest Wallace arrives for a hearing Friday in district court in Attleboro, Mass. A judge set his bail at $500,000. Prosecutors said Wallace was with former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez on the night Hernandez’s friend Odin Lloyd was shot to death.

Tebow’s future could depend on versatility FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tim Tebow had a rough day throwing the ball in his first training camp practice. But he caught a short toss during a screenpassing drill. His future with the New England Patriots, if he has one, may depend on that kind of versatility rather than his questionable quarterbacking skills. And the arrest of tight end Aaron Hernandez, of course, his former teammate at Florida, could help his chances. Coach Bill Belichick wouldn’t commit Friday to Tebow using Tebow only at quarterback, where his throwing mechanics were faulty while with the Denver Broncos and New York Jets. “I think that we’ll use Tim wherever we feel like he’s best for the team,” said Belichick, always careful not to tip his hand but not averse to dropping hints that may steer observers in the wrong direction, “and I know that’s what he’s committed to doing as well, whatever that is.” The 6-foot-3, 245-pound Tebow has the size to play

tight end and H-back but said he’s only been in the quarterback room during positional meetings with the Patriots. But he departed from his insistence that he wanted to play only that position. “I’m going to do what coach asks me to do,” he said. Belichick values players who can contribute at several spots. If Tebow can do that, it may buy him some time to improve on a motion that leads to wobbly, floating passes. Tebow and Hernandez were college stars as teammates for three years. They were reunited when the Patriots signed Tebow, who had been released by the Jets, on June 11. Now Hernandez is being held without bail after pleading not guilty to murder in the shooting death of Boston semi-professional football player Odin Lloyd on June 17, four days after the Patriots three-day minicamp ended. They cut him after he was arrested on June 26 and before he was charged that afternoon.

Soriano returns home Yankees acquire 7-time All-Star from Cubs

NEW YORK (AP) — Alfonso Soriano took one look around Yankee Stadium and broke into a big, familiar smile. “This is my house, this is my home,” he said. “I’m happy I have the opportunity to come back to New York — 10 years.” The New York Yankees reacquired Soriano in a trade with the Chicago Cubs on Friday, hoping the seventime All-Star can provide a power boost to a team that desperately needs pop. Soriano immediately went into the starting lineup, batting cleanup and playing left field against Tampa Bay.

The Cubs got minor league pitcher Corey Black and will send almost $17.7 million to the Yankees to cover the rest of Soriano’s rich contract. “We’ve obviously been trying to improve our offense, to no avail, throughout this season,” Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said. “By far, he is the best available bat to date.” Soriano outhomered the Yankees all by himself (10-8) in the four weeks prior to the deal. Overall, the 37-year-old was hitting .254 with 17 homers and 51 RBIs with the Cubs. The Bronx Bombers led the majors with 245 home runs last

year, but have become the Bronx burn-outs this season, ranking next-to-last in the AL with only 88. Banged up, they’ve played most of the year without Curtis Granderson, Mark Teixeira, Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez. Their slump from the right side — Soriano hits righty — is even more acute. It’s been a month since a right-hander homered for the Yankees, with Jayson Nix the last to do it on June 25. Soriano made his major league debut with the Yankees in 1999 and quickly blossomed into a rare package of speed and power. In 2002, he hit 39 homers and 51 doubles while batting .300, stealing 41 bases, scoring 128 runs and driving in 102.

Bengals

n Continued from page 13 long. But we’ll take our time with it and let him get right. He’ll be fine, hopefully very quickly.” Green wore a wrap on the left knee and walked stiffly and slowly on Friday. He watched the first hour and 15 minutes of practice wearing a Bengals baseball cap. The Bengals’ most valuable player hasn’t missed much time because of injuries. He hyperextended his right knee while making a touchdown catch in the end zone against Pittsburgh as a rookie and missed one game. Green said the injury on Thursday reminded him of the one his rookie season.

“When I felt it, it felt just like the one against Pittsburgh,” he said. Cornerback Terence Newman was covering Green on a deep pass along the sideline that drifted out of bounds. Newman gave Green a light push as he tried to get away from him. Green planted his left foot awkwardly, hurting his knee. “I saw that the ball was going to sail out of bounds so I tried to pull up and just go behind him,” Newman said on Friday. “But he’s the type of receiver that tries to make every single catch possible. So I just kept on running and I came back and

saw him on the ground. I didn’t know what happened to him. “It was a scary moment, for sure. That’s one of those guys that if he threw up on the sideline, I’m nervous. Now I’m seeing him grab his knee, so I’m really nervous. Sounds like he’s going to be good, though, so that was a breath of fresh air.” Players stopped and watched Green get his knee examined on the sideline. “It’s awful no matter who it is,” offensive coordinator Jay Gruden said. “When it’s A.J., it kind of takes the wind out of everybody. It was silent there for a few seconds.”

Green said he won’t change his all-out style in practice when he returns. He’s known for making amazing catches during practice, setting an example for the younger receivers. “That’s how I’m programmed,” Green said. “That’s what I know.” Although Lewis has urged his players to stay on their feet to avoid injury during the workouts, he doubts that Green will throttle back on his effort in practice. “He made one catch this spring (during workouts) that was the most incredible catch I’ve ever seen,” Lewis said. “He

stretched out for the ball, put his left hand down, rolled and came up on his feet. And he was about parallel with the ground, a foot above the ground. So he’s kind of put together that way.” Earlier in that same practice on Thursday, Green and cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick slipped at the end of the field and fell hard while contesting a pass in the end zone. Lewis said there was nothing wrong with the field, which the team uses for workouts during the season. “I don’t have any concerns,” Lewis said. “It’s part of football. We just have to try and stay on our feet as best we can.”

Browns

n Continued from page 13 Weeden falls on his face. So far, he’s standing tall. It’s his starting job to lose. The Browns have been impressed with the way Weeden immersed himself into learning Chudzinski’s complex offense, which should better allow him to spread the ball around the field to his receivers. There was a perception last season that Weeden, who played four seasons of minor league baseball before going to college, wasn’t a great student or hard worker. But that hasn’t been an issue whatsoever as Weeden has shown a strong desire to improve and to lead. The Browns have

spent months evaluating Weeden, and to this point, he’s passed every test. “He has worked real hard and he’s done everything that they’ve asked him to do,” CEO Joe Banner said. “He’s got obviously a lot more work, but he’s gotten in here and he’s gotten a chance to progress on the mental aspect of the position, so I think everyone is encouraged on how hard he’s working and how bad it seems he wants to do well.” Weeden’s first day of training camp didn’t start so well. He looked tentative on some early passes, forcing the ball into tight spots — one of his issues

last year. But he settled in, and before long, Weeden was threading completions all over the field, hooking up on long passes to wide receivers Greg Little, Davone Bess and Josh Gordon. “I’m going to go out there with confidence,” he said. “I’m not going to be timid. I’m going to go out there and play hard and leave it on the line and take the chances I did and always have. I’m going to throw the ball and throw the ball in tight windows and trust my arm. It’s hard to play this position when you are aiming throws and secondguessing throws. You have

to play aggressive and be aggressive at all times.” The change in Weeden has been noticeable to his teammates. “Brandon’s a workhorse,” running back Trent Richardson said. “I had no problem with Brandon last year and I have no problem with him this year. All the guys are comfortable with him. He’s trusting us. He’s trusting himself. He’s making throws. He’s making corrections, and that first year was our first year. We put that behind us. We’re not going to look back at that. “This year’s a whole other year. Brandon, man, he’s fresh. He’s ready to

go. He’s got that arm going and he’s battling at the same time.” Norv Turner agrees. Cleveland’s new offensive coordinator, who has a proven track record of developing young QBs, has been impressed by Weeden’s growth and sees his potential. Turner reeled off a list of quarterbacks — Jim Everett, Gus Frerotte, Trent Green, Brad Johnson — who blossomed under his tutelage and he feels Weeden may one day be added to that list. Turner said Weeden’s ability to make a big leap in his second year depends on a variety of factors.

“It’s totally based on No. 1, the guy, and then the situation he was in,” Turner said, “and so many people get caught up in where a guy is. A lot of it depends on the situation he’s put in, the offensive line, the playmakers around him, how good a defensive football team you have. There’s so many things that go into it. But I think Brandon is fortunate, he’s had the experience of starting 15 games in this league, that’s a plus when you start working with a player who hasn’t played a lot. And then I think he’s taken to what we’re doing. “I expect him to play at a high level.”

Mahan leads in Canada OAKVILLE, Ontario (AP) — Hunter Mahan birdied the final three holes Friday for an 8under 64 and a twostroke lead after the second round of the Canadian Open. Coming off a ninthplace tie last week in the British Open, the fivetime PGA Tour winner had eight birdies in his bogey-free round at Glen Abbey to reach 13-under 131. “I kind of built off last week,” Mahan said. “I got some good things I’m doing with my swing and everything, and feel good about that. I’m just going out there and really trying to trust my game. “Just allow things to happen and not get in the way of myself and be as present as I can and keep my head up and keep moving forward and just kind of letting my abilities and everything that I’m doing in my game, let it try to come out.” John Merrick was second after a 62. He tied the course record set by Leonard Thompson in 1981 and matched by Andy Bean in 1983 — both when Glen Abbey played to a par of 71 — and Greg Norman in 1986. Merrick had an eagle and 10 birdies, playing the back nine in 6-under 31. “It was a great day,” Merrick said. “I got off to a good start, hit it over the green on 2 and chipped in for eagle, and that kind of calmed me down. … I hit it well and made a lot of putts.” He won the Northern Trust Open in February at Riviera for his first PGA Tour title.

Gay tested positive at nationals

By the Associated Press

Sprinter Tyson Gay failed more than one drug test this year, recording one of his positives at the U.S. championships in June, where he won the 100 and 200 meters, The Associated Press learned on Friday. Earlier this month, Gay revealed he had tested positive in an out-ofcompetition test he took May 16. Three people familiar with the case told the AP that Gay had multiple positives this year. One of those people said one positive came at nationals and the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency has notified him of that result. The people did not want their names used because the doping case against Gay is ongoing and the details have not been made public. Gay's representatives did not immediately respond to attempts by the AP to reach them. The sprinter has already surrendered his spot at next month's world championships. If a positive test from nationals is confirmed by his "B'' sample, those results would be vacated, though it's likely they would be anyway because of his May 16 positive. A first-time offense for doping usually brings with it a two-year ban, though athletes who cooperate with USADA sometimes get reduced penalties. One person familiar with the case told the AP that multiple positives over a short period of time are a sign of an athlete who wasn't trying to hide anything, but simply didn't know he was taking a banned drug.

Phelps still biggest name at swim worlds By PAUL NEWBERRY AP National Writer

BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Michael Phelps will be dropping by this dazzling city on the Mediterranean during the world swimming championships. He’ll be wined and dined and feted. He’ll make appearances on behalf of sponsors that still find his name is worth big bucks, even in retirement. He’ll watch the competition from the stands, cheering on former rivals he used to beat with regularity, as well as up-and-comers aiming to be the next Baltimore Bullet. He won’t swim a stroke. Yet he’s still the biggest name here. Every press c o n f e r e n c e Phelps includes at least a few questions about Phelps: Is he coming back? What did he mean to the sport? Can anyone ever replace him? With apologies to a very worthy list of wouldbe successors, led by 18-year-old American Missy Franklin, the answer to that last question is a resounding no. “Michael has his own legacy,” Franklin acknowledged Friday. “He created a path in swimming that was such a bright light for all of us. It’s going to shine for years and years to come. No one is filling his legacy. It speaks for itself. I hope to have my own legacy in the sport.” For the past couple of months, there’s been

rampant speculation that Phelps is plotting a comeback, that he’s easing back into workouts with an eye toward trading all those glamorous walks down the red carpet for the inglorious grind of staring at the black line on the bottom of a pool. He was only 27 when he walked away last summer after the London Olympics, having piled up a haul of medals that will be hard for anyone to eclipse. Eighteen golds. Twenty-two medals in all. Phelps had set a plan in motion years ago: Break Mark Spitz’s record for most gold medals at one Olympics. Check. Win more Olympic medals than anyone. Check. Walk away from the grueling sport before he turned 30. Check. “You can never say never, but I don’t think so,” said Jacco Verhaeren, director of the Dutch national team, when he got the inevitable question about Phelps coming out of retirement. “He’s a top athlete and they know when it’s enough. And I think it’s enough for him. I think he made it so very clear. “Why would he?” That was essentially the same line I got from Phelps when I talked with him by phone back in December. It was a few days before Christmas, and word had just come down that he beat LeBron James in balloting for The Associated Press male athlete of the year.

AP PHOTO Cleveland Cavaliers’ Kyrie Irving (23) goes up for a shot against Detroit Pistons’ Greg Monroe in the first quarter of the U.S.A. Basketball Showcase game on Thursday in Las Vegas.

Irving stars in Vegas Cavs guard scores 23 in U.S. exhibition LAS VEGAS (AP) — Watching Kyrie Irving make his case to play for the U.S. reminded Mike Krzyzewski of when they used to be together. Irving had 23 points and seven assists to lead the White team to a 128106 victory over the Blue on Thursday night in USA Basketball’s exhibition scrimmage, and afterward Krzyzewski said he loved being back with his former point guard. “It does feel good being at a press conference with Kyrie with

me,” said Krzyzewski, who coached Irving for one season at Duke. “I miss that. I’m going to start getting emotional here.” Irving, an All-Star for the Cleveland Cavaliers who was a member of the 2012 USA Basketball Select Team that trained against the U.S. Olympic team, scored 16 in the first half to spark his squad’s come-frombehind win, after the Blue team took an early 10-point lead in the first quarter. Though Krzyzewski said he’s far from ready to hand out spots on next year’s team that will compete in the 2014 World Cup of Basketball in Spain, it was evident Irving and New Orleans Pelicans center Anthony

Davis both should get their passports ready. Davis, who played on the Americans’ gold medal-winning team in London, had 22 points and seven rebounds for the Blue. “I’m not going to do individual assessments of each player. We’re watching everybody. I’m not going to be a school teacher and give one guy an ‘A’ and another guy a ‘B,’” Krzyzewski said. “Both these two guys (Irving and Davis) are exceptional talents and as talented as they both (are), they are so easy to coach and they’re really good guys. I thought they probably performed the best … They’ll be a big help to us.” With his team trailing

by six with a little more than 8 minutes left in the first half, Irving used his quick first step and cat-like agility to maneuver into the lane, where he drew the foul. After making two free throws with 8:09 left in the half, and following Derrick Favors’ free throw that put the Blue team ahead by five, Irving sliced his way into the paint again, this time sinking his shot and converting the threepoint play. The White team went on a 21-3 spree to take a 48-40 lead. A pair of alley-oop slam dunks by DeMar DeRozan and Davis — both fed by Kemba Walker — brought the Blue team back into the game inside the final four minutes of the first half. The White took a 53-51 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Fischer wary of releasing more Biogenesis names MIAMI (AP) — The man who released documents allegedly showing how the now-shuttered Biogenesis clinic provided performance - enhancing drugs to athletes says he is not disclosing more client names because of how messy he thinks Major League Baseball’s current investigation has gotten. Porter Fischer, a former associate of Biogenesis head Tony Bosch, told The Associated Press on Friday that he fears releasing more

names and involving more leagues would further complicate his life. “This whole fiasco with MLB has made me very, very wary about doing this with another agency,” Fischer said. “The way this whole thing has gone down with MLB makes me really, really apprehensive about starting another forest fire with somebody else. I mean, if you were me, would you go pick a fight with somebody else? I’d have NBA fans calling

me names, I’d have a whole bunch of high-paid athletes calling me this-that, I’d have other goons at my door.” Fischer did not divulge any new names in the AP interview. Earlier this week, ESPN. com published a story saying Fischer alleged that NBA players, boxers, tennis players, college players and MMA fighters were among those who bought performance-enhancing drugs from Bosch, who operated the clinic. “This whole thing is so mind blowing to me,” Fischer said. Several MLB players have also been linked in media reports to the clinic, most notably Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, 2012 All-Star game MVP Melky Cabrera, 2005 AL Cy Young Award winner Bartolo Colon and 2011 AL championship series MVP Nelson Cruz. Milwaukee outfielder Ryan Braun, the 2011 National League MVP, agreed this week to a 65-game suspension for violating baseball’s rules on drug use after being connected to Biogenesis. Fischer said he wants law enforcement to take a hard look at what occurred at the clinic, and that his life has been threatened since he gave documents about the clinic and its customers to the Miami New Times, which published a story in January detailing the alleged purchase of performance-enhancing drugs by Rodriguez and others.
