Attendance down at Troy Aquatic Park

By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

France tries one more cure for volatile suburbs PARIS (AP) — Two weeks after a spurt of rioting in a far-flung Paris suburb, President Francois Hollande is injecting a new dose of funds to help cure one of France’s most persistent problem areas — the suburban housing projects with their volatile mix of joblessness, high immigration, crime and despair.

TROY — If you don’t like Ohio weather, just wait a few minutes.

For the Troy Aquatic Park staff and patrons, unseasonably cool temperatures and threats of thunderstorms kept swimmers at bay for the month of July.

According to city of Troy’s assistant recreation director Carrie Slater, the Troy Aquatic Park closed completely for three days and several days the pool only partially opened in the month of July.

In July 2012, the pool only closed completely for one full day.

Slater said based on weather patterns in the month of July, only nine days the weather was warm, sunny and hot and favorable for large numbers of patrons to visit the TAP this summer.

“Mother Nature did not cooperate with

us this year,” Slater said Friday. “When (the weather) is cloudy and rainy, people don’t want to come out to the pool.”

Slater estimates total revenue to be down $20,000 in 2013, compared to 2012’s num-

bers including daily admission rates and concession sales.

Slater said she will not know the full report of revenue and attendance until midAugust, when the recreation department runs a full report.

The summer of 2013 hasn’t cooperated on the whole, Slater said.

“In June it was cool and a lot of people were not buying pool passes in June,” Slater said. Slater said most of the TAP’s revenue comes from May and June sales of reason passes.

This summer season has been a challenge.

For example, Friday afternoon was warm and sunny, but earlier in the day a threat of rain kept daily attendance members from walking through the gates.

“That’s the plus side to having a season pass,” Slater said. “You can come and go as you please, even if it’s just for one or two hours a day and you aren’t at the mercy of

A group of ladies visit downtown Troy and Sculptures on the Square Thursday during a summer trip. The eight sisters originally from the Ansonia area including Janet Gigandet Hickey of Dayton, Mary Gigandet of Greenville, Jane Gigandet Kunk of Portland, Indiana, Rita Gigandet Mayo of Greenville, Margaret Gigandet Guillozet of Troy, Dorothy Gigandet Hart of Fort Recovery, Elsie Gigandet Shappie of Versailles and Edie Gigandet Speck of Fort Recovery said they like to plan a trip together each summer and this year stopped in Troy to tour the 20 life-like displays by Seward Johnson throughout the area of the Public Square. The sculptures will remain on the streets until Sept. 2.

Ready to let loose

By Jim Davis

Civitas Media jdavis@civitasmedia.com

Cody Hanson has just one favor to ask when his band Hinder comes to town next week — that fans come ready to have some fun.

If they can do that, Hinder will have no problem getting amped up for its Aug. 10 concert at the Miami County Fairgrounds.

“The only thing that matters is that the crowd shows up and is ready to throw down,” said Hanson, who has played drums in the band since its formation in 2001. “If they’re ready to party, we’ll be ready to party.”

Hinder — the first rock band to play at the fair in recent memory — is slated to perform at 8 p.m. at the Grandstand.

“For us, the main reason that I feel people want to come out to a concert is to let loose and have a good time and to forget about their daily grind,” Hanson said.

“Rock concerts are supposed to be fun, and that’s kind of been our whole thing from the begin-

ning. We want our show to feel like a party, and for everyone to come out and let loose.”

A multi-platinum-selling band with four studio albums under its belt, the band consists of Hanson, Joe “Blower” Garvey on guitar, Mark King on guitar, Mike Rodden on bass and lead singer Austin Winkler. The Oklahoma-based rockers are best known for their 2005 single “Lips of an Angel,” which helped propel the band into the rock/ pop music stratosphere. The album (“Extreme Behavior”) reached triple platinum status for sales topping 3 million and helped cultivate a whole new legion of fans.

Since then, Hinder has recorded three more albums — the most recent being 2012’s “Welcome to the Freakshow” — and was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame.

Hanson said the band’s fan base continues to be something he and his band mates are most proud of.

“That’s one of the things that I think is our biggest accomplish-

US Congress: Divided and discourteous — taking a break WASHINGTON (AP) — The accomplishments are few, the chaos plentiful in the 113th Congress, a discourteous model of divided government now beginning a fiveweek break.

“Have senators sit down and shut up, OK?” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid blurted out on Thursday as lawmakers milled about noisily at a time Sen. Susan Collins was trying to speak.

There was political calculation even in that. Democrats knew the Maine Republican was about rip into her own party’s leadership, and wanted to make sure her indictment could be heard.

Across the Capitol, unsteady bookends tell the story of the House’s first seven months in this two-year term. Internal dissent among Republicans nearly toppled Speaker John Boehner when lawmakers first convened in January. And leadership’s grip is no surer now: A routine spending bill

U.S. employers add 162,00 jobs WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. employers added 162,000 jobs in July, a modest increase and the fewest since March. At the same time, the unemployment rate fell from 7.6 percent to a 4½-year low of 7.4 percent.

The rate fell because more Americans said they were working, though some people stopped looking for a job and were no longer counted as unemployed.

Friday’s report from the Labor Department pointed to a lessthan-robust job market. It suggested that the economy’s subpar growth and modest consumer spending are making many busi-

nesses cautious about hiring.

The government said employers added a combined 26,000 fewer jobs in May and June than it previously estimated. Americans worked fewer hours in July, and their average pay dipped. And many of the jobs employers added last month were for lower-paying work at stores, bars and restaurants.

For the year, job growth has remained steady. The economy has added an average 200,000 jobs a month since January, though the pace has slowed in the past three months to 175,000.

Nariman Behravesh, chief econ-

omist at IHS Global Insight, called the employment report “slightly negative,” in part because job growth for May and June was revised down.

Scott Anderson, chief economist at Bank of the West, said it showed “a mixed labor market picture of continued improvement but at a still frustratingly slow pace.”

The reaction from investors was muted. Stock averages closed with modest gains. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note fell to 2.6 percent from 2.71 percent — a sign that investors think the economy remains sluggish and

might need continued help from the Federal Reserve.

The Fed will review the July employment data in deciding whether to slow its $85 billion a month in bond purchases in September, as many economists have predicted it will do. July’s weaker hiring could make the Fed hold off on any pullback in its bond buying, which has helped keep long-term borrowing costs down.

Beth Ann Bovino, senior economist at Standard & Poor’s (NYSE:MHP) , said she thinks Friday’s report will make the Fed delay a slowdown in bond buying.

had a pretty bad June and a pretty bad July.”

Slater said the TAP has a total of 65 staff members including life guards, assistants, front office and concession stand workers. When the pool is completely closed, the staff does not clock in for payroll, Slater said.

“In the front office and concession stands, we can cut back on a slow day,” Slater said. “But if we are open, we have to maintain a state standard of at least 10 lifeguards for safety reasons and to cover all

aspects of the pool area.”

Slater said so far in 2013, no near drowning incidents or accidents have been reported at the TAP. Slater said the month of August, typcially pool attendance drops due to last minute vacations, fall sports and practices gear up and the county fair cuts in to attendance.

“People are gearing up towards fall and getting in to a back to school routine,” Slater said of August numbers.

Last year, the recre-

ation board decided to close the Sunday prior to Labor Day weekend.

The decision was made due to college students who work at the TAP have to return to campus.

Unfavorable weather patterns during Labor Day weekend also has led to the TAP closing before the holiday. The decision by the recreation board shortened the pool’s season by only three days.

Despite the lower general admission and lower attendance, Slater said the TAP’s swim team has

had the most participants in its history with more than 104 children enrolled in 2013.

“That’s a big increase from the past,” Slater said.

Slater also said swim lessons and water aerobics have had a steady number of participants.

Slater said up to 15 participants enrolled in water aerobics class in 2013.

“When Marshal is filling in, it’s a different show than when Jared is filling in. He’s a different type of singer, but he’s accurate and he’s pretty impressive,” he added.

Hanson said Dutton — who will be in the lineup when Hinder comes to Troy — was an easy choice to grab the mic since he was heavily involved in producing

the band’s last two CDs. “Marshal has been an easy transition. He’s a super talented guy — one of the most talented people I’ve ever met in my life,” Hanson said.

“We’ve worked together for so long. He produced the last two albums with me … and the fact that we’ve worked together for so long has made it easier. Marshall is so musically educated that

it elevates the rest of us.

“I think, with Marshall, people get to see another element of our band that they’ve never seen before,” Hanson continued. “He adds so much behind the scenes with the record. Without him, our albums wouldn’t be what they are, so fans get to see the sixth member of the band.”

Although Hanson said he and the band

are excited about their upcoming visit to Troy, he admitted he has his sights set on something personal.

“I wasn’t a fair show freak (growing up), but I would go with friends.

Even now I still love it,” he said. “One of my favorite things about the summer fairs is going out and grabbing a turkey leg.”

And he’ll get that

chance next weekend.

produce.

House Democrats claimed to hate all of this, yet couldn’t get enough.

After attacking virtually every move Republicans made for months, they demanded the GOP cancel summer vacation so Congress could stay in session. The break, Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said, “shows shocking disregard for the American people and our economy.”

To be sure, there have been accomplishments since Congress convened last winter, although two of the more prominent ones merely avoided a meltdown rather than advancing the public’s preferred agenda.

A closed-door session helped produce compromise over President Barack Obama’s stalled

nominations to administration posts and important boards — avoiding a blow-up that Republicans said would follow if Democrats changed the Senate’s filibuster rules unilaterally.

Months earlier, at the urging of their leaders, House Republicans agreed to raise the government’s debt limit rather than push the Treasury to the brink of a first-ever national default.

Legislation linking interest rates on student loans to the marketplace passed, and, too, a bill to strengthen the government’s response to crimes against women. Two more measures sent recovery funds to the victims of Superstorm Sandy.

Among the 18 other measures signed into law so far: one named a new span over the Mississippi River as the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge, after the late baseball legend. Another renamed a section of the tax code after former Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas.

A third clarified the size of metal blanks to be used by the Baseball Hall of Fame in minting gold and silver commemoratives: a diameter of .85 inches in the case of $5 gold coins, and 1.5 inches for $1 silvers.

The Senate passed sweeping immigration legislation to spend billions securing the nation’s borders against illegal entry and creating a path to citizenship for an estimated 11 million immigrants currently in the country unlawfully. The vote was 68-32, with all Democrats and about one-third of Republicans in favor.

But House Republicans, many of whom oppose granting citizenship to anyone living in the country illegally, deemed the bill a non-starter. They intend to have alternative legislation this fall. If it succeeds, that will give the two houses about a year to somehow compromise before Congress’ term expires.

The Senate approved a bipartisan farm bill that followed customary lines in providing funding simultaneously for growers and for government programs to feed the hungry.

But a revolt by tea party conservatives blocked passage of a combined bill in the House, which then approved a measure to aid farmers. The leadership promises one for nutrition programs this fall, and an attempt will be made to find common ground with the Senate.

So far, Congress’ classic two-house compromises

have been elusive.

Both houses have approved budgets.

But some Senate Republicans have blocked Democratic attempts to begin compromise talks, saying they will relent only if there is agreement in advance not to raise the federal debt limit as part of any deal.

“Let me be clear, I don’t trust the Republicans,” said GOP Sen. Ted Cruz, a tea party-backed first-term lawmaker from Texas. “I don’t trust the Democrats, and I think a whole lot of Americans likewise don’t trust the Republicans or the Democrats because it is leadership in both parties that has got us into this mess.”

Indeed, most opinion polls over the past six months put public approval for Congress in the mid-teens, with disapproval generally over 70 percent.

And yet, says Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., “Congress does reflect the American people and the American people are divided.”

Sen. Deb Fischer, a Nebraska Republican who took office in January, said gridlock “is not as bad as I expected,” and seems exaggerated by the frenzied 24-hour-a-day news cycle. She said she has been able to agree with several Democrats on amendments to bills in committee.

On a larger scale,

though, even prior agreements are endangered.

One example: Under legislation already in effect, spending for one category of federal programs is supposed to total $967 billion for the fiscal year beginning on Oct. 1, with a portion set aside for defense and another share for domestic accounts.

In the House, Republicans approved a budget that adheres to the $967 billion figure but puts more into defense and less into domestic programs than is mandated.

In the Senate, Democrats opted for $1.058 trillion, far in excess of the agreed-upon total.

The difference, about $92 billion, must be reconciled before lawmakers can approve legislation to keep the government in operation after Sept. 30.

Further complicating matters, some tea partybacked Republicans say they will vote for such legislation only if it cancels all funding for the health care law that Congress passed three years ago — a condition Democrats and Obama vehemently reject.

The alternative to compromise is a partial government shutdown, an outcome leaders in both parties say they can avoid.

But that’s a struggle for after vacation.

According to attendance numbers, Slater said in July 2013 more than 26,180 patrons attended the TAP. In July 2012, 29,131 patrons headed to the pool to cool down.

“That’s 3,000 less than last year,” Slater said.

was pulled from the floor this week, two days before the monthlong August break, for fear it would fall in a crossfire between opposing GOP factions.

A few weeks earlier, Boehner suggested a new standard for Congress.

“We should not be judged on how many new laws we create. We ought to be judged on how many laws that we repeal,” he said as Republicans voted for the 38th and 39th time since 2011 to repeal or otherwise neuter the health care law known as Obamacare.

Reaching for a round number, they did it for a 40th time on Friday, although the legislation stands no chance in the Democratic Senate and the GOP has yet to offer the replacement that it pledged three years ago to

Due to health problems and political unrest in her planned destination of Egypt, Russell, founder of the charity Walking4Water, ended her trek across Africa, six months and 2,000 miles earlier than planned.

Walk for water charity cut short after 5,000 miles HARTFORD, Conn.

(AP) — After 5,000 miles and 18 months, Amy Russell is done walking.

The 24-year- old Manchester native and founder of the charity Walking4Water has ended her trek through Africa, six months and 2,000 miles earlier than planned.

Health problems and political unrest in her planned destination of Egypt caused her and walking partner Aaron Tharp to stop their walk, she said. They plan to fly home on Sunday.

“I guess ‘officially’ we ended in Negele, Ethiopia,” she said via Facebook chat from Addis Ababa, the Ethiopian capital. “Random town … but the point where everything plus people throwing rocks at us every day just, where we decided to be done.”

Russell and Tharp, 26, of Trenton, Ohio, were the last two walkers standing from a journey that was supposed to include about 10 people.

It was designed to call attention to the lack of access to clean water in developing countries.

The walk has raised about $10,000 for charity: water, a New York-based group that funds drinking water projects in developing countries.

Most of the other would-be walkers backed out before Russell’s journey began in South Africa in February 2012. A third member of the team, 25-year-old Marty Yoder

of Elkhart, Ind., who had been driving the support vehicle, went home with health problems when the team was in Mozambique.

That left Russell and Tharp with their shoes and backpacks. They camped or stayed with missionaries or local families, traveling north through South Africa, Mozambique, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya and Ethiopia. Russell went through seven pairs of shoes and lost about 40 pounds.

“The biggest challenge was probably just living in constant instability, we never stayed in one place very long,” Russell said.

“So every day, we had to find food, had to find water, had to find a place to stay. Always dealing with a language barrier, always changing circumstances. Dealing with that mentally was probably the hardest.”

They had physical problems as well. Russell contracted malaria in Mozambique.

They both got sick a number of times from drinking brackish water, and Tharp developed knee problems, Russell said. They also spent one night in Kenya huddled in a tent with a machete after noticing lions in nearby bushes.

Russell called it the most terrifying experience of her life. “ Throughout the remainder of the night, we heard yet another lion, another elephant, a two-minute lion-elephant showdown, and a couple

hyenas,” Tharp wrote on his blog. “Morning never looked so beautiful!”

But it was the people that Russell said will leave a lasting impact on her.

She recalled a day she spent in a Kenyan village, going with other women and children to gather water from a hole that was a 15-minute walk away.

“From this ‘puddle’, maybe you could call it a small pond, we filled the jerry-cans, and walked back with them,” she said. “This water, murkier than potato soup, was what they drank directly from, without any fears or qualms.”

Russell is disappointed she wasn’t able to walk all 7,000 miles, but she’s proud she made it as far as she did.

“Instead of transforming everyone else’s life (I’m not sure I made a huge impact for others), it seems my life has been the one transformed in the process,” she said.

Russell hasn’t decided what she will do next.

She will begin looking for a job and is considering graduate school.

For now, she just wants to be home, perhaps with a pizza.

“I definitely plan on doing talks, sharing the experience if people are interested,” she said.

“Not sure writing a book is a good idea, but haven’t eliminated the option completely. NO MORE WALKING lol.”

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP New York Times on Al Qaeda in Iraq scores big: Jailbreaks are common in Iraq, but the brazen assaults on the prisons at Abu Ghraib and Taji last week are in a class by themselves. The attacks freed perhaps as many as 800 militants, who are now sought

by Interpol as a “major threat” to global security. The attacks showed the fearsome and growing strength of Al Qaeda in Iraq, seemingly on the decline only a few years ago. They also raised new questions about the effectiveness of Iraq’s authoritarian prime minister, Nuri Kamal al-Maliki, as well as the stability of Iraq itself.

Al Qaeda in Iraq, an affiliate of Al Qaeda, waged a virulent insurgency that brought the country to the brink of civil war in 2006 and 2007, then suffered major defeats at the hands of Iraqi tribal groups and American troops. It has since rebounded and is believed largely responsible for a surge in daily bombings that have killed an estimated 700 people this month alone.

The Abu Ghraib and Taji operations were synchronized and sophisticated. …

Oddly, having spent so much money strengthening Iraq’s security forces administration officials have said little, publicly or privately, about why in this case their investment failed so spectacularly.

Iraq is a sovereign country, responsible for its own security. But Iraq might have been better able to repel Al Qaeda if Maliki and the Americans had worked harder on a deal to keep a token number of troops in the country to continue helping with training and intelligence-gathering. Not surprising, Maliki’s interest in such an arrangement has grown; Army Special Operations and the C.I.A. reportedly have small units in the country to assist in counterterrorism activities.

Regional volatility, including the Syrian war and Iran, are compounding Iraq’s instability. But the core problem is Maliki, whose monopoly power and favoritism for his Shiite majority brethren over other groups have inflamed sectarian tensions. In particular, he never made good on promises to reintegrate minority Sunnis, banished from power after Saddam Hussein’s ouster, into the political and economic life of the country. This has made Al Qaeda in Iraq and other insurgents more appealing to resentful Sunnis.

Administration officials, as they should, are working behind the scenes to calm political disputes among Maliki and Sunni and Kurdish leaders and to create better relations between Iraq and other countries in the region. But absent a complete change of heart and approach by Maliki, Iraqis and their country will remain dangerously fractured.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on the Snowden case has the U.S. reassuring Putin?: When he leaked secret information on the National Security Agency’s massive surveillance efforts, Edward J. Snowden set in motion events that are still playing out. While he languishes as a U.S. fugitive with uncertain status in Russia, his countrymen have been debating the constitutional limits of the government spying he exposed.

The former intelligence contractor’s actions have also inadvertently put the focus on another uncomfortable truth for Americans back home to consider: How much the international prestige of the United States has been tarnished over the past decade or so by the unorthodox excesses in the fight against terrorism.

The telling moment came in a letter sent by U.S. Attorney General Eric J. Holder Jr. to his Russian counterpart, Justice Minister Alexander Konovalov. …

It has come to this: The government of the United States must explain itself to Vladimir Putin’s Russia, where raw power is used to stifle dissent and foes of corruption find themselves imprisoned or worse.

Further, the cynical leaders of Russia do not have much reason to believe U.S. assurances. They will remember that in 2007 President George W. Bush declared with a fine disregard for the truth: “This government does not torture people,” a fiction that has not survived revelations about waterboarding and renditions of terror suspects to foreign countries for torture there. On security policy, the Obama administration has yet to show it is much different from its predecessor.

Doonesbury

Five things you absolutely must do this summer I woke up this week and it was August.

How on Earth is it already August?

School supplies are adorning nearly every shelf, Halloween (as in October) costumes are slowly driveling into clothing aisles and it’s so hot you find yourself wondering if fall is around the corner yet.

And just to ease your mind, yes, it totally is.

But while we’ve still got a month left before the kiddies head back to school (and we have to start working harder again to save up for holiday feasts, gifts and parties), there are five things I absolutely insist you get done before summer passes you by.

First and foremost, you have to get yourself to a pool, preferably with a kid in tow. Even if you don’t have children of your own, borrow someone else’s, take your niece, nephew, cousin’s baby, any child will do (as long as you know them and have full permission to be with them) and head to a waterpark. Spending one day at the waterpark with children will give you an entirely new lease on life. Watching the careless way

they plan and the giant smile they doesn’t even have to be profesget from the way a waterslide tick- sional baseball, have you been to les their stomach will remind you a Dragons game lately? They’re how to laugh from all the way in super fun, with all the in-between inning activities they go by super your abdomen too.

And while we’re at things that fast and honestly, who doesn’t will make you laugh, make sure want to see a giant green dragon running around? you find time to visit a And before we have to get drive-in while the season is all cozy and snuggly with still here. If you want to get fall or doom and gloom with really wild and crazy, take winter, take a trip somea couple chairs or a blanket where! It doesn’t matter if and sit outside your car for it’s just an hour away, make the movie. Not only do you a road trip and take a day get two movies for the price to enjoy somewhere other of one, you get the stars, the Amanda than your city with friends scenes and the company of Stewart or family. some headlights. It reminds Troy Daily It feels like the perfect you of the really, really sim- News time to be driving anyway, ple times, when some stars, Columnist you know, despite the gas a movie and some popcorn were all that mattered – just don’t prices never being low anymore, but it’s great to get away for a day forget the bug spray!

Seriously folks, it’s August. and see the sights outside of your August is not countdown to regular life.

We’re lucky enough to be headfootball season, it’s still baseball season. You remember baseball, ing down to Tennessee in a few right? America’s favorite pastime? weeks with some close friends for I’m not saying you have to love a long weekend. The end of sumit, but I am saying that unless mer deals are awesome and when you’ve caught a baseball game we’re sitting around a pool watchyourself lately, I don’t want to ing the kids run around among hear any of this nonsense about the mountains I have a feeling I counting down until football. It won’t be worried about any kind

of work.

I saved the following one for last on purpose. If I would have led with this one you probably would have stopped reading and written me off for crazy.

You should really, really, really, strongly consider doing a 5K! It doesn’t matter if you have to walk it, crawl it, jog it or sprint it out, just do it. I know, I know, it doesn’t sound like your idea of a good or relaxing time, but not only will you feel amazing after finishing it, you won’t even worry about those extra hot dogs you want to scarf down after doing it.

Pick your favorite cause and get a group of friends. You can burn some calories while raising money for a great cause – now that’s a total win-win.

Even when we’re stuck with our 9-5 jobs, bills and adult problems, there’s something magical about summertime, something that resonates with us from childhood.

Don’t waste away what used to be the best time of the year, grab your family and share the joy with them.

Social media putting college freshmen at ease Twitter and Facebook to connect with each other by sharing their thoughts, fears, questions and photos about college life.

Many students have posted images of college acceptance letters, class schedules and school IDs as ways to show the start of their college careers is official.

A&M-Corpus Christi and Texas A&M UniversityKingsville use hashtags that include the number 17 to signify the incoming freshmen class. The schools also have other hashtags and social media pages they use.

Some students have created unofficial social media pages as a way to find people with common interests.

Diane C. McDonald, marketing and social media executive director at Texas A&M University in College Station, said it’s natural for incoming freshmen to use social media because they’ve grown up with it.

“They are taking a very organized approach to these connections by establishing sites and hashtags for their class before the

first day of classes,” she said in an email.

Joe Kuffner, a media relations professional in Portland, Ore., who maintains a blog dedicated to sharing universities’ and colleges’ approaches to social media, said some of the most excited people engaging in social media are incoming students.

Colleges are tapping into providing avenues for students to link up through Facebook groups, hashtags and video chats, said Kuffner, who is assistant media relations director for the University of Portland.

He said social media helps students become fans of their school and instill what many colleges hope will be a lifelong bond with that community.

“It’s sort of a way to build the school pride and just have people feeling really good about the institution … and maybe, hopefully, share some of that with their friends,” said Kuffner, whose 4,000-student, private Catholic university uses hashtags and other social media to share its story.

Teens fight erosion in Hoosier National Forest

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Despite the heat, despite the rain, six local teenagers under the supervision of an Indiana University undergrad have been working to improve water quality in the Ohio River by reducing erosion on trails in the Hoosier National Forest. Their three-week project concluded Friday.

Grants to the Ohio River Foundation from Duke Energy-Indiana, the Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation funded paid internships throughout the river’s watershed.

The local youth conservation team — all young women — wielded shovels and rakes to install water bars along trails and stabilized stream crossings near Hardin Ridge and on the Hickory Ridge Trail system in the Charles Deam Wilderness south of Lake Monroe.

The trails are popular with hikers, mountain bikers and horse-riders.

Frequent horse use can be especially rough on woodland paths along steep terrain. It’s a dirty job that involves digging trenches and slinging gravel for the purpose of keeping soil on the trail and out of the stream, The HeraldTimes reported.

They also worked on the Pate Hollow Trail near Paynetown and installed a bee garden.

Dave Morris, recreation technician at the Hoosier National Forest, picked the projects for the crew, understanding that their assignment was to be related to water quality.

“Any time horses cross a stream, it really stirs up sediment,” Morris said.

He said the crew placed about 100 tons of gravel — about five truck loads — to “harden” stream crossings.

“The greatest pollution in Ohio River is sediment,” said Rich Cogen, executive director of the Ohio River Foundation.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) — Celestina Encinia is comfortable with the idea of starting her freshman year of college later this month at Texas A&M UniversityCorpus Christi.

The 18-year-old Sinton High School graduate knows where she will live and soon will know her class schedule and necessary textbooks to buy, but that’s not what puts her at ease.

It’s that she’s already connected with her peers, without meeting them.

That comfort makes the thought of college less intimidating.

Encinia found four classmates on the image-sharing site Instagram weeks before she set foot on campus for Thursday’s new student orientation.

“I’m here to make friends and (meet) people I will know for a long time, and just being one step closer helps,” she told the Corpus Christi Caller-Times (http://bit.ly/18Wjyg1).

Across the country there are incoming college freshmen who use social media sites such as Instagram,

In this July 25 photo, a member of a crew hired paid by The Ohio River Foundation builds a habitat for bees and wasps at the Hardin Ridge Recreation Area, in Bloomington, Ind. Despite the heat, despite the rain, six local teenagers under the supervision of an Indiana University undergrad have been working to improve water quality in the Ohio River by reducing erosion on trails in the Hoosier National Forest.

“If we reduce the sediment loading in the streams and tributaries, we will reduce pollution in the river.”

Horses, hikers and mountain-bikers smash soil-holding plants, and when a heavily used trail becomes muddy, they often wear a new sidepath to avoid the muck, enlarging the problem. When they cross a stream, muddy hoofs and hiking boots carry the soil into the water, adding to the sediment load of a tributary of the Ohio River.

The crew is working to change the topography of the well-used trails to keep the soil in place.

Morris said he’s had the gravel stockpiled for several years, but didn’t have the manpower to put it on the trails — until the Ohio River Foundation offered the work crew at no charge to the national forest.

A youth conservation team worked in the Boone National Forest in June, and two others have water-qualityprotection projects in Hamilton County, Ohio, and Campbell County, Ky. “The impact is cumulative on all streams in the (Ohio River) water-

shed,” Cogen said. “The more we can improve the water quality and habitat upstream on tributaries and streams, the greater will be the impact on the river.”

Cogen said he is impressed with the local crew.

“This is a really smart crew. I knew that going in,” he said. “The biggest problem I’ve had is keeping up with them.

I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve worked crews off and on for years. You always get slackers. Not in this group.”

“I feel like I don’t need to do much supervising.

They’re self-motivated,” said Xia Meng Howey, crew supervisor and a senior at IU. “They work well as a group, and talk about ideas, and how to best get things done. I really don’t even bother to tell them what to do, because they take it upon themselves.”

“The girls are all really outdoorsy and know about the environment, and have a deep interest in the work. … It’s nice to be working with people who have a real interest in what they’re doing,” she said.

Unions get creative to halt decline in membership

WASHINGTON (AP) — With union membership on the decline, labor leaders are getting more creative — and some say more desperate — to boost sagging numbers and rebuild their waning clout.

Unions are helping nonunion fast food workers around the country hold strikes to protest low wages and poor working conditions. They are trying to organize home day care workers, university graduate students and even newly legalized marijuana dealers. Members of a “shadow union” at WalMart hold regular protests at the giant retailer, which long has been resistant to organizing.

Labor leaders say unions must create new models and new ways to represent workers to reverse a steady slide in the union ranks. Those efforts have taken on greater urgency since the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported earlier this year that union membership had declined to just 11.3 percent of the workforce — its lowest point in nearly a century.

“To be blunt, our basic system of workplace representation is failing to meet

the needs of America’s workers by every critical measure,” AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka said in a recent speech.

The most high-profile tactic has seen hundreds of low-wage workers at McDonald’s, Burger King and other fast food chains walk off their jobs this week in a series of oneday strikes to demand better pay and the right to unionize. Workers are demanding wages of $15 an hour, more than double the current federal minimum wage of $7.25.

The actions in New York, Chicago, Detroit and other cities are being coordinated by local worker centers, nonprofit organizations made up of unions, clergy and other advocacy groups. While not technically labor groups, they receive generous financial support and training staff from the Service Employees International Union and other unions.

“Our primary goal is to help workers boost wages,” SEIU President Mary Kay Henry said. “We think a key part of that is helping workers form organizations where they can directly bargain for wages with their employers.”

Sikh son first saw father at dad’s Wisconsin funeral OAK CREEK, Wis. (AP) — Gurvinder Singh approached his father’s open coffin with one thought: “Please, god, it’s not my dad.”

As he stepped closer, he realized the man was indeed the father he knew only from photographs. The 14-year-old stood numbly, not crying until officials wheeled the coffin toward a

hearse. Then Gurvinder collapsed in tears, inconsolable, telling his mother he wanted to die in the same flames that would cremate his father.

Ranjit Singh left his family behind in India in 1997, to work as a priest at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin.

He always planned to visit Gurvinder, his only son, whom he last

saw as a 7-month-old.

But last August, two months before the father was to go home for the first time in nearly 14 years, Singh and five others were fatally shot by a white supremacist at the temple. The gunman’s motive still eludes police.

With the anniversary of that day approaching, Gurvinder recently sat in the same temple, down the hallway from where his father was killed, and recounted the few memories he has of the man he knew only from daily but brief phone calls.

“I’ve never seen my dad. I just saw him dead,” Gurvinder said softly, shaking his head.

“Whenever I look at someone’s dad holding him I can’t see that. It’s hard to see.”

AP Photo Gurvinder Singh stands in front of a picture of his father, Ranjit Singh at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin Wednesday in Oak Creek, Wis. Twelve months ago a white supremacist shot and killed six temple members, including Ranjit Singh.

Gurvinder, now 15, is quiet and soft-spoken.

But he’s quick to smile at people he’s meeting for the first time. He’s also eager to help out at the Oak Creek temple, car-

He spends nearly every day at the temple.

Wherever he goes he’s reminded of the father he never met, from memorial portraits of all six victims that now adorn the lobby, to the bedroom his father called home.

He also has a tattoo on the back of his left hand

— the same tattoo his father had — of Punjabi characters that say, “One god.”

But he pauses daily at one place: a single bullet hole, about the size of a dime, in the door jamb leading to the main temple. Temple officials left the hole unrepaired as an eternal reminder, affixing a tiny plaque below it with the date of the shooting and the words, “We Are One.” Gurvinder said it’s not difficult to spend so much time around where his father died. He said death can come at any time to any person, and he leaves it to God to take him or anyone else whenever it’s time.

Still there’s angst — especially about the shooter who eventually killed himself after he was wounded by a police sniper the morning of Aug. 5, 2012. Gurvinder understands that as a Sikh, his religion teaches forgiveness and peace.

Rick Warren returns to pulpit after son’s suicide

AP Photo In this June 23, 2009 photo, Evangelical pastor Rick Warren speaks to about 800 people under a large tent at St. Vincent’s Episcopal Cathedral Church in Bedford, Texas. Nearly four months after his son’s suicide, popular pastor Rick Warren has returned to the pulpit at his Southern California megachurch July 27.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nearly four months after his son’s suicide, popular pastor Rick Warren returned to the pulpit Saturday afternoon at the Southern California megachurch he founded.

Warren, dressed in his usual casual black T-shirt and jeans, took the stage at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif. with wife, Kay Warren, and was greeted with a long standing ovation by the congregation.

A shout of “We love you!” came from the crowd before Warren began.

“I love you, too,” a smiling Warren replied. “Have I told you lately that I love you?”

It was the first time Warren had taken the Saddleback pulpit since

his 27-year-old son Matthew shot and killed himself on April 5.

In the sermon, first in a series called “How To Get Through What You’re Going Through,” Rick Warren said he had the perfect role model for his struggles.

“God knows what it’s like to lose a son,” Warren said.

He remained mostly composed, but choked back tears at times, including when he thanked his surviving two children.

“How proud I was of Amy and Josh, who for 27 years loved their younger brother,” Warren said. “They talked him off the ledge time after time. They are really my heroes.”

He delivered a formal, prepared speech with

notes and quotes from Scripture but often broke off to talk frankly about his son.

“I was in shock for at least a month after Matthew took his life,” Warren said.

But, Warren said he was grateful to come from “a family of spiritual redwoods.”

“Satan picked the wrong team to pick on,” he said.

Warren has been an essential figure in the modern, megachurch brand of Christianity.

His multimillion-selling book “The Purpose Driven Life” made him a national star in the realms of religion and self-help, and he delivered the opening prayer at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inaugura-

tion.

Saddleback, the church he founded in 1980, has grown to 20,000 members, according to Warren’s biography on the church’s website.

But in April, Matthew Warren, after a lifetime of struggle with depression, shot and killed himself in what Warren at the time called “a momentary wave of despair.”

“For 27 years I prayed every day of my life for God to heal my son’s mental illness,” Warren said.

But Warren said Saturday that he intended to turn his grief into a message of service and hope.

“God wants to take your greatest sorrow and turn it into your life’s greatest message,” he said.

Clergy, faithful digest Francis’ Brazil message Brazilian clergy to have the “scent of their flock” on them.

“There are pastoral plans which are ‘distant,’ … which give priority to principles, forms of conduct, organizational procedures … and clearly lack nearness, tenderness, a warm touch,” Francis said Sunday. “The bishop has to be among his people in three ways: in front of them, pointing the way; among them, keeping them together and preventing them from being scattered; and behind them, assuring that no one is left behind.”

Father Omar Mateo, secretary general of Ecuador’s Episcopal Conference, addressed the elephant-in-the-room question: How do you take the Gospel to the street when the clergy are spread so thin?

Nearly 25 percent of the world’s parishes don’t have a resident priest, according to Vatican statistics. While the number of Catholics in the world grew by 68 percent between 1975 and 2010, the number of priests ticked up by just 1.8 percent, according to the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate at Georgetown University.

In Brazil, the world’s largest Catholic country, the percentage of the population calling itself Catholic dropped from 89 percent in 1980 to 65 percent three decades later, according to census statistics. Many Brazilian Catholics joined charismatic Pentecostal evangelical churches, while Americans joined flashy megachurches and many Europeans simply became secular.

Mateo said the answer will require both “asking God to send more workers to his cause” and by pragmatically “launching campaigns to go out and find new priests who will devote their lives to the Christian vocation.”

“The holy father asks us to live our religious life in all settings,” he said. “To understand and live religion and to go out into the community in a convincing and simple manner.”

Beyond direct calls for a more active church, experts said the pontiff’s Brazilian trip was rich in symbolism just as important in getting his messages across.

He paid a visit to a trash-strewn slum recently cleared of drug gangs. He met with young, recovering drug addicts to whom he gave deep hugs after they told their stories to him at a public event. He responded to a crowd mobbing his car on arrival in Brazil not by recoiling, but by rolling down his car window to shake hands and kiss babies.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — In word and deed during his trip to Brazil, Pope Francis put clergy and faithful alike on notice: Get energized, go out and spread the Gospel, give the Roman Catholic Church a more active role in society.

Francis led the way, with upward of 3 million faithful gathering for his Mass on Copacabana beach, a gushing local press following his every move on nationwide TV and even a group of nuns squealing in delight like groupies upon spotting him.

By all measures, the pope’s first international trip was a smash success.

But the burning question in the posttrip glow remains: How to carry out Francis’ commands with a church that’s loaded with challenges, from a severe shortage of priests to the fleeing of faithful for two decades in strongholds such as Brazil, as well as across Europe and the United States.

On Monday, priests, lay people and religious experts alike interpreted through their own cultural lens how to understand Francis’ call to action, when he told bishops in Brazil that clergy must work on the peripheries, get out in the street and better understand how to communicate with modern society.

“As a younger priest, that’s part of my idealism, to take our work into the streets,” said Father Roy Bellen from Manila, who was in Rio for the papal visit. “It’s encouraging for me to hear from the boss that the old school ways aren’t welcome, that of clergy sticking to their comfort zones inside the church.”

Some predicted a rough road ahead if the church is going to change its more traditional pastoral forms, which put a priest at the front of a Mass talking to instead of with parishioners. The growth sought by Francis will require many clergy to exercise atrophied missionary muscles.

“It’s the mission of the church to go out and proclaim the Gospel to everyone, but there are people who don’t like to do this; they prefer to stay within their parishes,” said Jan Scheuthela, a 28-year-old seminarian from Poland attending the Mass on Copacabana beach. “In my parish we try to do things like this, but we need to do more: We need to organize missions on the streets, especially to bring in those young people who have lost interest in the church.”

Francis told Latin American bishops they must be spiritually close to their parishioners and had earlier instructed

France tries one more cure for volatile suburbs

PARIS (AP) — Two weeks after a spurt of rioting in a far-flung Paris suburb, President Francois Hollande is injecting a new dose of funds to help cure one of France’s most persistent problem areas — the suburban housing projects with their volatile mix of joblessness, high immigration, crime and despair.

The government is counting on state-sponsored jobs and improved lodging to help the millions of people, often immigrants from former French colonies in North Africa who speak little French, living in pockets of poverty that ring major cities.

Hollande’s cure, some 5 billion euros ($6.6 billion) of direct state investment with the hope it will attract 15 billion euros more, is a small response to a problem that has dogged three presidents and, Hollande has said, has only longterm solutions. But he is optimistic.

The plan was being presented to the Cabinet on Friday, two days after Hollande visited ClichySous-Bois, northeast of Paris, the town that since 2005 has symbolized urban unrest. Three weeks of fiery riots that started in Clichy-SousBois hopscotched around

the housing projects of France. The unrest was France’s wakeup call to the urban misery long hidden from view, in part because of poor transport to the nearby hub cities.

Two days of riots two weeks ago, with dozens of cars set afire in Trappes, a suburb southwest of Paris, was a new

reminder of the simmering anger. The unrest there was triggered by the arrest of a man who allegedly attacked a police officer for ticketing his wife for covering her face with an Islamic veil — banned in French streets.

But urban experts and residents said the veil issue covered the deep

concerns over unemployment, discrimination, poor integration of many residents and despair over the future.

“Social misery is deep.

All of that came to the surface over a veil,” said Trappes resident Armel Angoula, 38, a home nurse.

During his Wednesday

“JOHN JOHN”

visit to Clichy-Sous-Bois, Hollande refused to comment on the unrest in Trappes and neighboring cities, but he acknowledged that suburban projects remain a tinderbox despite the injection of tens of billions of euros since 2005.

“The slow-burning fuse is still lit but, while this fuse burns slowly, we can stop it with projects that are long-term, very longterm,” he said.

In Clichy-Sous-Bois, population 30,000, the jobless rate is over 20 percent — twice the national average — and soars to some 40 percent for those under 25.

But the presidential message was one of optimism. He pointed to changes wrought in Clichy-Sous-Bois where urban renovation has been underway since 2005 — but which just this year will get its first

unemployment agency.

Hollande’s plan for urban renovation is spread over 1,300 priority neighborhoods, chosen for their high levels of poverty, but zeroes in on 230 of them.

He instigated a plan this month, called “Real Jobs,” in which companies that hire under-30s in impoverished areas who have been unemployed for at least a year receive 5,000 euros from the state. The goal is to recruit 10,000 people within three years.

France began injecting funds into its housing projects in 2004 under President Jacques Chirac a year before the riots, with a 12-billion euro plan over 10 years that grew to 40 billion euros with private investments.

More than 91,000 buildings have been razed and some 81,000 new ones built.

AP Photo Latifah Naiman Mariki, widow of the late Haji Lukindo, with two of her children Juma Lukindo, 20, and Shamim Lukindo, 7, outside their house in Nairobi, Kenya, Friday. An American diplomat who police say was speeding crossed the center line in his SUV and rammed into a full mini-bus, killing a father of three whose widow is six months pregnant, officials said Friday. Latifah Naiman Mariki, 38, and whose husband was killed in the crash, was almost evicted from her house this week after her landlord demanded rent. Mariki’s deceased husband, Haji Lukindo, was the family’s only source of income. Mariki told The Associated Press that neither the American driver nor anyone at the U.S. Embassy has contacted her, and she doesn’t know how she will provide for her soon-to-be-born child and three children, ages 20, 10 and 7.

U.S. diplomat kills man in car crash, leaves Kenya NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — An American diplomat who police say was speeding crossed the center line in his SUV and rammed into a full mini-bus, killing a father of three whose widow is six months pregnant, officials said Friday.

U.S. Embassy officials in Nairobi rushed the American and his family out of Kenya the next day, leaving the crash victims with no financial assistance to pay for a funeral and for hospital bills for the eight or so others who were seriously injured.

Latifah Naiman Mariki, 38 and whose husband was killed in the crash, was almost evicted from her house this week after her landlord demanded rent. Mariki’s deceased husband, Haji Lukindo, was the family’s only source of income.

Mariki told The Associated Press that neither the American driver nor anyone at the U.S. Embassy has contacted her, and she doesn’t know how she will provide for her soon-to-be-born child and three children, ages 20, 10 and 7.

“It is difficult for me to handle this matter because my kids need to go to school. They need everything, basic needs,” Mariki said. “And we have no place to stay because we have to pay the rent. We have no money. … Even if my kids are sick I have no money to take them to hospital.”

Hilary Renner, a State Department spokeswoman in Washington, said the embassy extends its deepest condolences to Mariki’s family and wishes a speedy recovery to those injured. She said she couldn’t comment on whether the embassy employee would return to Kenya.

“The embassy is fully cooperat-

ing with the Kenyan authorities as they investigate the accident and work to aid the victims,” she said.

The American driver of the SUV, Joshua Walde, was an information management officer at the Nairobi embassy when he got in the crash on his way home the evening of July 11. He gave a statement to police but because he has diplomatic immunity he was not detained.

A police dossier on the case shown briefly to an Associated Press reporter contained sketches of how police believe the accident happened. The sketch shows the American’s SUV turning at a rounded four-way intersection on the edge of Nairobi and driving into the lane of oncoming traffic.

A police officer familiar with the case who insisted he not be identified by name because he is not an official spokesman said of Walde: “He was driving very fast.” Pictures in the dossier show that the SUV hit the front corner and side of the mini-bus, smashing in its frame.

Kenyan mini-buses, known as matatus, also frequently drive fast and erratically.

A Facebook group of Kenyan mothers took up Mariki’s case this week and are trying to raise funds for her. In dozens of comments online, many demanded accountability and expressed dismay that no financial help has been given.

“She’s such a decent and honest lady you feel so bad for her.

She wasn’t employed,” Zahra Ashif, who started the Facebook thread, told AP. “The point is that (Walde) is not here so he can’t be arrested, but after that point did he not have any courtesy to get in touch? …

For them life has gone on, but what about these kids?”

Walde is an 11-year employee of the State Department who has worked in Kazakhstan, Uruguay and Croatia. Shortly after the crash, Walde updated his work history on the networking site LinkedIn to put his time in Nairobi in the past tense, from July 2012 to July 2013.

After the Facebook group noticed the updated resume and pointed to that as evidence that Walde would not return to face charges or help victims, the LinkedIn account was deleted, though a cached version is still available through Google.

Walde’s wife circulated an email to sell a family vehicle and try to find new work locations for the family’s nanny and gardener after the crash. AP sent an email to Walde’s wife on Thursday asking if the family wanted to comment. No response was received.

The U.S. government is concerned about the impact the accident could have on bilateral relations with Kenya, a U.S. government official said. The official noted that embassy employees are typically evacuated for medical evaluations after traumatic events but are also flown out of a country to avoid any possible retribution or attack from others involved in an accident.

The police say the case remains under investigation. The Nairobi traffic police chief, Patrick Lumumba, said he is seeking assistance from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to liaise with the U.S. Embassy. He said authorities didn’t detain Walde because “we don’t take diplomats into custody.”

Push for border control worries Haitian vendors JIMANI, Dominican Republic (AP) — In swirling dust and sweltering sun, hordes of Haitian merchants impatient for the official opening squeezed through the battered border gate and swarmed to the myriad rickety stalls and shipping containers where Dominican wholesalers bartered off crates of juice, pasta, cooking oil and other goods.

After making their purchases, the shoppers headed back across the border into Haiti — an impoverished nation that produces little to meet the needs of its people.

Haitian women carried boxes of pasta on their heads, men pushed wheelbarrows piled with bags of rice and cereal boxes and smoke-belching trucks roared down the road crammed with food and consumer goods.

This may be the Western Hemisphere’s most open border, and it’s been that way for years along the little-

AP Photo In this July 15 photo, a man hauls to Haiti a sack of poultry, purchased at a market in Dajabon, Dominican Republic. This may be the Western Hemisphere’s most open border, and it’s been that way for years along the little policed line between the two nations.

But officials in both Haiti and the Dominican Republic want to rein in the chaotic flow of commerce and people, and their proposals are straining bilateral relations. The Haitian government bans the import of poultry from the Dominican Republic.

policed line between the two nations that share the Caribbean island of Hispaniola. But officials in both Haiti and the Dominican Republic want to control the chaotic flow of commerce and people, and their proposals are straining bilateral relations.

Tensions flared in

June when Haiti banned imports of Dominican poultry and eggs saying avian flu existed on the other side. The Dominican Republic along with the World Health Organization have vehemently denied any avian flu problem, while critics say Haiti was in fact trying to protect a

local producer.

Dominican merchants closed the border markets one day in June to protest the avian flu declaration, while the country’s president, Danilo Medina, threatened retaliation, saying, “We might have to take drastic measures.”

Haiti’s government now wants to cut the number of days that Dominican tax-free border markets operate from two a week to one so that it can better handle the flow of commerce. Haiti also wants to boost revenue by getting tougher on collecting import duties on goods from the markets, which the country still charges even on market days.

Medina, for his part, wants to negotiate a free trade agreement that would eliminate tariffs and better regulate trade with Haiti. That would primarily benefit the Dominican Republic, which exports far more goods.

Cards rout Reds Arroyo roughed up in loss CINCINNATI (AP) — David Freese set the tone with a bases-loaded double in the first inning, and Daniel Descalso hit two of the Cardinals’ three homers on Friday night as St. Louis pulled away to a 13-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.

The Cardinals have emerged from a deep hitting slump by scoring 13 runs in each of their last two games. It’s the first time this season they’ve had double-digit run totals in consecutive games.

Shelby Miller (11-7) limited Cincinnati’s slumping offense to two singles over the first five innings

before Joey Votto hit a three-run homer in the sixth.

Bronson Arroyo (9-9) matched his season high by giving up seven runs in only 3 2-3 innings, his shortest outing of the season.

Freese also had a bases-loaded walk, giving him four RBIs. Allen Craig and Carlos Beltran each had three hits as St. Louis piled up 14 in all. The 13 runs were the most allowed by Cincinnati this season.

The Cardinals improved to 7-3 against the Reds this season, keeping the defending NL Central champions at arm’s length.

Tippecanoe’s Carter Langdon (right) is greeted at home plate by his Red Devil teammates after he hit a home run against Indian Lake on Ap

The next level Three Red Devils ready for college

By COLIN FOSTER

Associate Sports Editor colinfoster@civitasmedia.com

Tippecanoe has always been disciplined on the field and well-coached during Bruce Cahill’s tenure — which played a big part in the Red Devils’ run to the Division II regional championship game this past season.

But having a ton of college-level talent on their roster also helped.

There are three Devils from the 2013 class who have signed to play baseball at the next level.

Carter Langdon will take his pitching and hitting ability to the University of Dayton, pitcher Steven Calhoun signed with the University of Toledo and Zach Robbins will play for Johns Hopkins.

• Carter Langdon Langdon has had a number of medical woes, but he’s never let that stop him from playing baseball at a high level.

Tippecanoe pitcher Steven Calhoun delivers to the plate during the Division II regional semifinal game on May 30.

CANTON (AP) — While his six other classmates for this weekend’s enshrinement sported blue golf shirts given them by the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Cris Carter was dressed in suit and tie.

He might never take them off.

“Man, I am in the Hall of Fame. I am wearing a suit every day,” Carter said Friday as the 50th anniversary festivities for the hall began.

Carter will join Jonathan Ogden, Larry Allen, Bill Parcells, W a r r e n Sapp, Dave Robinson and Curley Culp as the newest inductees on Saturday night.

He Carter was, by far, the most emotional during a news conference Friday as festivities began for the 50th anniversary celebration of the hall.

The only member of the Class of 2013 who didn’t win an NFL title, Carter used a handkerchief to wipe away the tears when asked about his career and the fact it took six tries to get elected.

“Minnesota fans didn’t judge me when a lot of bad things were being said about me,” Carter said, frequently pausing to regain his composure. “They always cheered for Cris. The only thing I really wish is we could’ve • See HALL on page 16

Cleveland Indians’ Ubaldo Jimenez delivers a pitch during the first inning against the Miami Marlins Friday in Miami.

MIAMI (AP) — The strikeouts keep coming for rookie right-hander Jose Fernandez, while the winning streak has ended for the Cleveland Indians.

Fernandez pitched eight innings and struck out 14, the most by an NL pitcher this season, to help Miami beat the Indians 10-0, snapping their eight-game win streak.

Miami’s All-Star became the first major league pitcher to strike out at least 13 in consecutive games since Randy Johnson in 2004. He’s the first rookie to do so since Kerry Wood in 1998.

Fernandez (8-5) set a Marlins record for the most strikeouts in consecutive starts. He had 13 Sunday in a win over Pittsburgh.

He pitched for the first time since turning 21 Wednesday and showed he’s not yet over the hill, allowing just three hits.

He struck out at least one bat-

ter in every inning and was still throwing 97 mph in the eighth.

He also hit a sacrifice fly in the third for his fourth RBI this season.

Fernandez’s strikeout total was the most by a rookie since Stephen Strasburg of the Nationals had 14 in 2010. He’s the first NL rookie to strike out 10 in at least four games since Cole Hamels of the Phillies in 2006.

Logan Morrison provided all the support Fernandez needed with four hits and four RBIs. Adeiny Hechavarria and Jake Marisnick each had three of the Marlins’ 16 hits, and an error

by Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera led to three unearned runs in the first.

Fernandez walked the pitcher — an especially egregious lapse against an American League team — but that was the only base on balls he allowed.

Holmgren gives Browns a surprise visit BEREA (AP) — Old habits apparently die hard for Mike Holmgren.

When the former Cleveland Browns president found himself driving by the team’s training facility Friday, he couldn’t help but stop in.

Unfortunately for Holmgren, he arrived at the start of an afternoon training camp practice — and immediately became the center of attention.

“I thought practice would be over and I was going to sneak in,” he said, chuckling. “Just sneak in and sneak out. I’m not reflecting on anything right now.”

Holmgren’s tenure running the Browns officially ended last Nov. 30 when he was replaced by new owner Jimmy Haslam III. He left the franchise under good terms — shortly after Haslam hired Joe Banner as CEO — and was paid the

remainder of his five-year, $40 million contract.

Haslam embraced Holmgren during his onfield appearance, which also included visits with Banner and general manager Michael Lombardi.

“I still miss it tremendously, but that’s what it is right now,” said Holmgren, who is in Northeast Ohio to attend the Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony. “I’m doing a little radio thing in Seattle, so that’s fun, and just traveling a little bit and doing some things that I haven’t been able to do for a long time.”

Holmgren served as Cleveland’s president from 2010-2012 after being hired by former owner Randy Lerner. Prior to joining the Browns, he spent 17 seasons coaching the Packers and Seahawks, winning the Super Bowl with Green Bay in 1996.

Though none of his former players are being inducted Saturday, Holmgren said he wanted to make the trip to Canton in order to show respect for several longtime adversaries.

“I hope to see (Bill) Parcells and (Warren) Sapp and Cris Carter and all of those guys that I coached against all those years,” he said. “It’s quite an honor, and I’ll be able to see a lot of guys that I haven’t seen in a long time, so that’s actually what I’m here for.”

The Browns went 14-34 record during Holmgren’s three seasons. They went 5-11 under coach Eric Mangini in 2010, then posted 4-12 and 5-11 marks with Pat Shurmur at the helm.

Holmgren deflected all questions about his unsuccessful tenure in Cleveland, but did joke about the major renovations that

Haslam has made to the team’s headquarters.

“My old office, the little cubbyhole I had up there, is now fancy,” he said.

“That’s why I came out to say hello to Jim and Joe and Lombardi.”

Running back Trent Richardson also spent several minutes chatting with Holmgren, giving a warm hug to the man that selected him with the third overall pick in the 2012 draft.

“It means a lot when I see old Holmgren, man, because he gave me a shot by picking me,” Richardson said. “When I see him anytime, it’s nothing but much love because he changed my life, he changed my family’s life. He gave me that opportunity.”

In his final press conference with the Browns, Holmgren said he was open to coaching again in the NFL.

Flirting with history Woods makes run at 59 at Bridgestone AKRON (AP) — Tiger Woods had a shot at making history with a magical 59.

He swore he wasn’t disappointed to come up short.

“Disappointed? Absolutely not,” he said.

Then he cracked, “A 61’s pretty good. I’m not bummed.”

Like a pitcher having to settle for a shutout instead of a perfect game, Woods could console himself by tying his career best and building a seven-shot lead Friday through 36 holes at the Bridgestone Invitational.

Pursuing his eighth victory at Firestone Country Club, Woods opened birdie-eagle — stuffing an approach to 3 feet at the first hole and holing a 20-footer for 3 at the par-5 second. He had two more birdies on the front nine, and had four in a row to start the back nine in a light rain.

Needing to go only 2 under over his last five holes, he missed birdie putts inside 10 feet at 15 and 17. He saved par on the last with a 25-footer after an errant drive and a shot that hit into the trees and ended up in a bare spot short and right of the green.

“How about just pleased?” he said, when asked to rate the round. “I’m very happy I was able to post that. I just kept thinking, whatever lead I had, ‘Let’s just keep increasing it.’ It’s at seven now, I believe. So that’s not too bad after two days.”

The 61 — matching his career best at the 1999 Byron Nelson, 2005 Buick Open and on the same Firestone course back in 2000 — left him at 13-under 127.

Defending champion Keegan Bradley and Chris Wood, playing the tournament for the first time, were

AP photo Tiger Woods tees off on the third hole during the second round of the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament Friday at Firestone Country Club in Akron. Woods tied a course record with a round of 9-under par 61 and leads the tournament at 13-under.

tied for second. They each shot 68.

Bradley finished well before Woods, but was asked if it was disheartening to take the lead and then have Woods retake it after the opening two holes.

“Tiger, those first couple holes out there are definitely birdie holes, so I’d expect him to do that,” Bradley said.

“You know, I hope he doesn’t go too low.”

Sorry, Keegan.

Woods, a four-time winner this year, needed only 22 putts, eight fewer than he had Thursday in an opening 66. He hit 10 of 14 fairways and was on in regulation on 16 of 18 greens.

The next best score on a threatening day with a slategray sky and precipitation was a 66.

It seemed every fan on the

course took notice as Woods started stacking up birdies.

The magic number 59 — shot five times on the PGA Tour — dominated conversations.

“Oh, they were excited,” Woods said. “You could hear it more than feel it. You definitely could hear it. They were into it.”

Asked if that kind of electricity helps out a player, he joked, “It’s nice to be playing in front of people who are excited like that, especially people who aren’t yelling just because your ball gets in the air. You know, we are pros.”

• LPGA ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — Inbee Park caught bad end of the draw at St. Andrews, made worse by not having her best golf.

Before she can think about a chance to make history as

the first golfer to win four professional majors in the same season, Park faced a more immediate concern Friday afternoon in the Women’s British Open — how to make up an eightshot deficit against Na Yeon Choi.

“I’m so far back,” Park said after a birdie on the final hole to salvage a 1-over 73. “We need some tough conditions.”

Na Yeon Choi played four groups behind Park and turned in a command performance, making six birdies for a 5-under 67 that gave her a one-shot lead over Miki Saiki of Japan going into the weekend. Saiki set the Old Course record for the Women’s British Open with a 66 in the morning, where the only nuisance was a few bursts of showers.

Johnson wins pole amidst issues LONG POND, Pa. (AP) — Jimmie Johnson needed multiple attempts to make it through pre-qualifying inspection, then set a track record with a lap of 180.654 mph to win the pole Friday at Pocono Raceway.

Kyle Busch? He could only think the five-time Sprint Cup champion and crew were up to no good.

Johnson went 29th instead of his scheduled 24th spot, and the later start under the clouds as the track got faster may have given him an advantage over the cars that went out under the sun. Johnson had inspection issues last month at New Hampshire and used another late start to qualify third until his time was scrapped after the No. 48 failed inspection.

Are Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus just working around the rules? Or can they simply not get the car in tune

in time for inspection?

“A lot of these other teams figure out how to play by the rules,” Busch said. “It seems like there’s one that’s sometimes late. Quite often, more than the rest.”

Busch will start second and Carl Edwards third.

Ryan Newman, last week’s race winner at the Brickyard, starts fourth. Kurt Busch is fifth.

Johnson is tied with Matt Kenseth with a series-high four wins this season and he leads the points standings as he chases his sixth championship. Johnson is in position to go for the season sweep at Pocono, where he won from the pole in June. Johnson took that pole after the field was set on points because rain washed out qualifying.

Johnson took the top spot this time after a second pass through inspection. NASCAR determined the tow on his

Chevrolet was off by onethousandth of an inch — just enough to make Busch suspicious.

“There’s been some times this year where those guys go through four, five, six times and they’re always late,” Busch said. “Every time they’re late, they’re always fast. Maybe we need to be late.”

Johnson, never one to exchange in a verbal spat, brushed off Busch’s comments.

“It’s only (a few) spots, now. It didn’t make a difference,” he said. “I wish there was some master plan behind it all. They’re welcome to try it. They’re welcome to experience the stress that goes with it. My heart was pounding out of my chest trying to get in the car and beat the clock. I don’t wish that kind of stress on anybody. … It’s not what I want to go through.”

Maybe not. But it worked at Pocono.

Johnson seemed poised to win the pole last week at Indianapolis until Newman topped him on the last qualifying attempt of the day. This time, he would not be denied as NASCAR saw its 11th track qualifying record set this season by the Gen-6 car.

Joey Logano’s old mark of 179.598 mph was topped by six drivers, including Logano. Johnson also set the track record at Martinsville Speedway this season. He now has 31 poles in 420 career Cup starts.

“Track records are cool,” Johnson said. “It makes all the drivers and teams smile.”

Just not an irked Kyle Busch.

“I wish we went later,” he said. “I think we would have had a better racetrack that was 10 degrees cooler, at least.”

AP photo Scott Dixon takes a corner during practice for the IndyCar auto race at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio, Friday.

Dixon ready to continue hot streak at Mid-Ohio

LEXINGTON, Ohio (AP) — Scott Dixon’s vacation isn’t much different than the vacations of most parents with young children.

A lot of running around. A lot of cleaning up. A lot of things to occupy your mind — and your time — other than work.

It was a welcome break for the twotime IndyCar champion, even if it came just as he was putting his early season doldrums firmly in the rearview mirror of his No. 9 Target Chip Ganassi Racing Honda.

Still, Dixon didn’t complain when he went back to work on Friday to prep for this weekend’s Indy 200 at MidOhio. Momentum is a funny thing.

He enjoyed hopping around North America with his wife, Emma, and daughters Poppy and Tilly, sure. That didn’t mean he wasn’t worried his climb up the standings would somehow fizzle after spending two weeks outside the cockpit.

“You get into thinking, ‘Well are we making sure we’re keeping up with things? Are we going to go to the next track with an edge?’” Dixon said. “But you’ve just got to go in confident and try to approach it the same we do every other time.”

Things certainly looked normal as Dixon posted the fastest time in the morning session around the tricky 2.258-mile road course. Then again, maybe it should. Dixon has stood atop the podium at the 13-turn test of nerves four times since 2007. It’s a testament to the speed his team has been able to find and his ability to keep moving forward.

Mid-Ohio may be the tightest course in the series. Room to pass is more rumor than fact. Qualifying near the front is at a premium. So is being able to defend your position. Few do it better than Dixon.

Lochte claims 2 golds BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Wearing fluorescent orange sneakers, Ryan Lochte eased out of his seat and moved gingerly toward the exit of the Palau Sant Jordi.

It was the first time he was slow all night.

“My whole entire body is hurting,” Lochte moaned. “There’s no other way to put it — I’m sore.”

No kidding.

On a night when Missy Franklin finally lost, Lochte turned in an epic performance at the world championships Friday. He swam three races in less than two hours, coming away with two gold medals and the top time in an event he’s competing in for the first time at a major international meet.

Certainly, this grueling triple was worthy of a “Jeah!” — Lochte’s silly catchphrase that echoed through the arena every time he dove in the water.

“Unbelievable,” said no less an authority than Bob Bowman, Michael Phelps’ former coach. “An incredible night of swimming.”

No one could find any record of someone competing in three races in the same session at either the worlds or the Olympics. Phelps, for all his accomplishments, never did it at one of the major international meets.

Bowman was asked where Lochte’s performance ranked in swimming history. He immediately thought of the night in this same arena, a decade ago, when Phelps broke world records in different events on the same night.

“It’s up there with stuff like that,” Bowman said.

n Continued from page 14 He will now take his talents to an even higher level.

Langdon made his decision to attend the University of Dayton official in November. As a junior, Langdon was one of the best pitchers in the Miami Valley — finishing the year with 61 strikeouts, a 9-1 record and a 1.08 ERA. And going into his senior year, Langdon appeared prime to have an even bigger year on the mound … but then fate intervened. Just before the start of the high school season, he found out he would need Tommy John Surgery, which meant he would see no time on the hill his senior year.

But that didn’t mean he couldn’t still do damage with his bat.

Langdon played through the injury and was a huge asset for the Devils at the plate, ending the season

with a batting average of .400. His homer total (5) and RBI total (39) were tops in the entire Central Buckeye Conference.

Langdon had the surgery just after Tippecanoe lost in the regional final and said he will red shirt his freshman year at Dayton.

“The whole thing was, I had a lot of Division II and III teams looking at me, not so many Division I schools, because they only have 35 roster spots,” Langdon said.

“I’ve had multiple surgeries, so some schools may have looked at me as a liability. Most teams don’t want that. But U.D. gave me a chance.”

And with a year to get his body stronger, what the Flyers will be getting could be worth the wait.

ing a school, it was all about finding a place that could help take that skill set and turn it into something even better.

He was getting looked at by several different colleges, ranging from MidAmerican Conference schools to Division II and III schools such as Ohio Dominican. But in the end, Toledo won him over.

He verbally committed in January before signing with the Rockets in April.

“Coach Bradford, he’s the pitching coach (at Toledo), works on developing tall pitchers,” Calhoun said. “Since I’m a tall pitcher, it’s the perfect fit for me. I think he’s going to be able to develop me a lot. There’s some things I need to work on. I think coach

Bradford will be able to help me get a little more speed.”

Last season, Calhoun finished with a 6-3 record and an ERA of 0.74.

• Zach Robbins Zach Robbins is a student first and a baseball player second, the model of what a student-athlete should be.

“I take my school pretty seriously,” Robbins said.

So when he was talking with schools about the possibility of playing baseball, Robbins wanted to make sure his time on the field wasn’t getting in the way of his education.

“I’m pretty into math and science and academics in general,” Robbins said. “I wanted a school where I could focus on engineering. That’s what I’m interested in.”

What he found was a perfect fit at Johns Hopkins University.

“I wanted to pick a school with a real

high academic profile,” Robbins said. “Johns Hopkins seemed like best fit. Almost half of the players on the team are engineer majors, another half are pre-med. The coach just understands, they practice around your schedule.”

Johns Hopkins, a school located in Baltimore that competes at the Division III level in the Centennial Conference, will be getting a sturdy infielder in Robbins, who said he expects to go in right away and compete for a starting job.

“My major positions are third and first base.

They just graduated both those positions,” Robbins said. “Ideally, I would like to go in and really compete for starting job.

There are a couple kids on roster that are older — it’s going to be tough — but I’m going in with mindset that I’m going to get this job.”

Parcells was a winner of two NFL titles as a coach and master of the franchise turnaround. Ogden, one of the premier offensive tackles of his time, grabbed a Super Bowl ring in 2000. Larry Allen, a 1995 champion with Dallas, was the rare equal of Ogden on the offensive line in their era.

Vikings, who had a stronger need for a wide receiver. All Carter did the rest of his 16-season career was wind up second at his retirement in 2002 behind Jerry Rice for all-time receptions and touchdowns. He’s fourth in those categories now.

As he mentioned, though, he doesn’t have that championship. For the other six, those Super Bowl rings will
