MIAMI COUNTY — Familyfriendly competition can be found in almost every corner of the Miami County Fair, and this year, the Reid brothers of Fletcher took top honors in the FFA shop and crop building.

Miami East High School FFA members Cody, 17, and Levi Reid, 15, had several entries in the crop and shop building, but battled it out for the best of the best of soybean in the exhibition.

Sophomore Levi Reid beat out older brother and high school

junior Cody’s soybeans for Grand Champion crop display.

“Mine had more pods and had more fill,” Levi said Sunday at the FFA shop and crop building at the Miami County Fair.

“They look for how big the pods are and how they look in the pod,” Cody said. “We just picked and dried out the ones we thought looked the best.”

Levi said he enjoys the competitions his chapter of FFA competes in every year.

“I like going to all the competitions we get to do in FFA and I like the state convention the best,” Levi said.”You get

Queens for a week Ingle sisters know about fair royalty

By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

MIAMI COUNTY — The Miami County Fair is a regal affair for the Ingle sisters of Covington.

The sisters share more than a passion for raising market lambs and modeling their sewing projects during the fair and have the tiaras to prove it.

Allison Ingle, 17, was the 2012 Miami County Junior Fair Queen and a few weeks ago, she crowned big sister Cassie, 18, as the 2013 Miami County Fair Queen.

Allison, 17, looked at her sister and smiled before sharing her favorite memories of the county fair.

“My favorite fair memory was when I crowned my sis-

ter fair queen,” Allison said.”It made this year really special.”

Both Ingle sisters agreed that 4-H has helped them with their interview skills outside of the modeling and sewing projects.

“It teaches you great interview and speaking skills which help at school and with job interviews,” Allison said. “It goes much better after your first year, then your second year you know what to expect.”

Cassie agreed that with her younger sister that participating in 4-H and speaking in front of people, whether showing market lambs or modeling, helps calm the public speaking jitters.

“Interviewing in front of judges, especially in front of crowds like during Project Pride Day, helps with your speaking skills,” Cassie said.

“I like helping the younger kids with their projects and I like helping the younger girls model.”

Attending the Miami County Fair is a family tradition for

the sisters and parents Andy and Tricia.

“They both did 4-H,” Allison said.

“And they passed it on to us,” Cassie said, finishing her younger sister’s sentence.

Both said attending the fair is time to reconnect with other 4-H friends from around the county.

“Hanging out in the barn with all our fair friends and catching up with people you don’t see often is something I look forward to every year,” Cassie said.

Allison said she enjoys meeting up with fair friends each year that she doesn’t see outside of the county fair.

“You get to see all your show friends and seeing everybody in the barn that you haven’t seen in a year,” Allison said.

Cassie also said she has enjoyed meeting people like the 2013 Ohio State Fair Queen who visited the fair on

Ann Weaver has achieved a goal that many fair participants won’t see once in a lifetime — let alone twice.

Weaver, a lifelong resident of Monroe Township, took home the Homemaker of the Year award in the Art Hall at the Miami County Fairgrounds on Sunday.

When the Homemaker of the Year award was first introduced at the fair, Weaver narrowly missed winning, taking second place the first two years. But, the third year, in 1997 — which was the 150th year of the Miami County Fair — Weaver said she was determined to win — and it paid off.

“The reason I tried so hard then was I was going to be a grandma for the first time,” she said.

The Homemaker award is to encourage the various skills of a homemaker and to recognize their achievements. To be considered, participants must enter projects in four separate categories, including needlework, crafts, hobbies and baked goods. For her efforts, Weaver received the Richard and Betty Minnich Memorial Trophy.

Weaver said she entered 24 items in the fair this year and took six first places, four second places and three third places.

Her pride and joy — her Clydesdale needlepoint project — won first place and Best of Show among the other needlepoint projects. Weaver said she probably spent hundreds of hours over several years completing the large needlepoint project she then framed.

“When people would come to my house and see it hanging on the wall, they would say ‘you have to enter that into the fair,’” she said.

She took second place for a cross stitch project of the Tipp City schools, including a former building she attended, that also took an extensive amount of work. She said

Hobart announces Scotty McCreery concert American Idol winner to perform Oct. 26 in Troy

By Jim Davis

Civitas Media jdavis@civitasmedia.com

Pop quiz: When was the last time a Guinness World Record Book record holder performed at Hobart Arena?

Scotty McCreery won’t be the first ever, but when the American Idol winner visits Troy later this year he’ll be the first in a long, long time.

Arena officials have announced that McCreery, who established a Guinness World Record in 2011 when he became the youngest male

in history to score a No. 1 album on the all-genre chart with a debut release, is signed up for an 8 p.m. Oct. 26 show at Hobart.

Other than arena alum Jake Owen — who helped the town of Oviedo, Fla. set a Guinness mark in 2009 for the most people in one town to have their blood pressure checked in one day — Elvis Presley may be the last Guinness honoree to grace the Hobart stage.

McCreery will be the latest.

“We are excited to have

one of the biggest up-andcoming country artists coming to Troy,” said Hobart Arena Director Ken Siler. “To my knowledge, Scotty has not performed in the Dayton area before, so we feel there will be a great interest in this event. He will also be the first American Idol winner to perform at Hobart Arena.”

McCreery, who became American Idol’s youngest male winner ever when he garnered the reality show’s top prize in 2011, hit the ground running when his debut country album —

“Clear As Day” — topped both the Billboard Top 200 and Country charts that year.

The album reached platinum status in just three weeks for sales of more than 1 million and topped the Billboard country album chart for six weeks. The first two singles off the disc — “I Love You This Big” and “The Trouble With Girls” were certified gold for sales in excess of 500,000 units.

The success of McCreery’s recorded music helped the North Carolina native land live gigs on tour with The Band Perry and Brad Paisley, as well as his own headlining tour, The Weekend Roadtrip

Tour 2013.

Additionally, McCreery was honored as the New Artist of the Year at the 2011 American Country Awards and the 2012 Academy of Country Music Awards.

And then there’s that whole Guinness World Record thing … not bad for someone who won’t turn 20 until Oct. 9.

Tickets for McCreery’s show at Hobart Arena are $50 and $32 and go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday. They can be obtained online (www.hobartarena.com) or by phone (937-339-2911).

to be with your friends and do all the fun things together.”

Both said they enjoyed the opportunity to learn skills like woodworking through the FFA program at Miami East High School.

“Woodworking is something new because we do stuff like welding at home,” Levi said.

Cody said he likes showing pigs at the fair and being in the show ring with friends and his brother.

“It’s fun to see how we do against each other and seeing friends out at the fair,” he said.”It makes it more competitive and gives you a chance to try harder to do better.”

Levi said he likes having someone to compete with at the fair.

“It gives you somebody to try to better with,” he said.

Both brothers strongly prefer the active farming in the fields part of agriculture life.

“I like being out in the field and working ground,” Cody

said.

“I like getting out on the tractor and working around the farm and with the equipment,” Levi said.

The brothers also said their least favorite chore is the same.

“Cleaning pens,” Cody said.

“Yes, definitely cleaning out the animal pens is not my favorite thing to do,” Levi said.

The Reid brothers are part of the Miami East High School FFA program and live on a farm outside of Fletcher.

The following Miami East High School FFA member champions include: Brady Anderson, Grand Champion Shop, with reconditioned tractor and Reserve Champion Emily Beal with photo history of the Supervised Agriculture Experience; Grand Champion Horticulture, Haleigh Maggert, with vegetable mix plate and Reserve Champion, Lauren Williams, with basil project.

And, that’s exactly what she is doing, she said. She spends a lot of time with family and helps transport her three grandchildren to their events whenever necessary.

She also is the co-chair of the Knitting Hearts group of Living Word Church in Vandalia. She said the group knits and crochets hats, blankets and comforters for shelters, UVMC and Miami County Right to Life. They also send hats to Haiti and Africa and sent comforters to Oklahoma following the recent devastating tornado.

“Of course, God is in it all the way,” she said.

All-in-all, Weaver said she couldn’t be happier about her opportunities at this year’s fair.

“I worked for this one,” she said. “I am very proud.”

Ann Weaver points out detail in a needlepoint after winning 2013 Homemaker of the Year Sunday at the Miami County Fair.

Virginia, NYC races pose distractions for Clinton Her supporters dismiss the connections and play down their impact.

“Not everything is about the Clintons,” said former Rep. Ellen Tauscher, D-Calif.

That hasn’t stopped Republicans from trying.

Senate Republicans and Virginia’s attorney general, Ken Cuccinelli, McAuliffe’s Republican opponent in the governor’s race, are closely watching the investigation of GreenTech Automotive, McAuliffe’s former company.

The SEC subpoenaed records of GreenTech and Gulf Coast Funds Management, Rodham’s firm, which sought investors to the company’s auto plant.

The investigation involves how the companies used a federal program that provides permanent residency to foreign investors who invest $500,000 or more in businesses based in economically struggling areas.

The agency overseeing the visa program has denied that politics were involved in helping the company. But the case could complicate matters for Clinton and dredge up old memories.

Anthony Rodham was a paid consultant to a Tennessee couple that received pardons from President Bill Clinton in 2000. Rodham has said he discussed the pardon with his brother-in-law but said the president made his decision on the merits.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton’s effort to carefully craft her post-Cabinet image has hit a few bumps.

A sexting scandal in the New York City mayoral race and a federal investigation that’s roiling the Virginia governor’s race are recalling politically problematic chapters of her past.

Republicans are amplifying the parallels while also making a separate stink about television programs that CNN and NBC are developing about the former first lady and secretary of state. The GOP contends that the media are promoting Clinton’s image ahead of a potential White House campaign.

It all adds up to a dose of unwanted attention, if not a distraction, for someone trying to maintain a golden image among Democrats during a respite that could precede a second presidential bid.

While Clinton has tried to

maintain a relatively low profile this summer, her aides have found themselves having to answer for her family’s connections to the two campaigns.

An electric car company started by Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe, a longtime Clinton friend and former Democratic National Committee chairman, is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission along with a firm led by Anthony Rodham, Clinton’s brother.

The investigation centers on how they sought visas for foreign investors to McAuliffe’s company.

In New York, former Rep. Anthony Weiner’s campaign for mayor has faltered since revelations that he continued to exchange sexually explicit online messages with women after he resigned from Congress in 2011 because of a sexting scandal. Weiner is married to Huma Abedin, who is a longtime aide to Clinton and has stood by her husband’s side.

For all the Republicanfueled promotion of the links to Clinton, the two campaigns probably will not have a lasting impact on her political profile after two decades Rental in the spotlight. Still, oppoCenter nents are using them to recall • Tools Clinton’s own past personal • lawn and professional troubles — • party and the Monica Lewinsky 850 S. Market St., Troy scandal and the Whitewater 339-9212 2299798 real estate investment saga.

McAuliffe served as chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign and was a leading fundraiser for her husband’s presidential bids. His opponents have sought to portray him as a political moneyman to a Clinton White House that allowed big donors stay overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom and attend special coffees with the president.

“If it turns out that (McAuliffe) got preferential treatment while she was secretary of state, hmmm. That could be a lot more messy than anyone is thinking right now,” said Curt Anderson, a Republican strategist. “If this turns out to be some sort of visa for sale scheme while she was secretary of state, are we to believe it is just a coincidence that they had her brother involved?”

Hillary Clinton is planning a fundraising reception for McAuliffe at her Washington home on Sept. 30, headlining what would be her first political event since leaving the State Department, according to two Democratic officials familiar with the plans. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the event.

In New York, Abedin’s decision to stick by her husband after the latest sexting allegations drew comparisons

by Republicans to Hillary Clinton’s decision to support her husband during reports

of infidelities, and the president’s later impeachment by the House — and acquittal by the Senate — over his relationship with Lewinsky.

Clinton’s allies have privately expressed their displeasure with Weiner for his behavior. Traveling in Africa, Bill Clinton told CNN that they had not been involved in the mayor’s race “and they understood that from the beginning. There are too many people running for mayor who have been my supporters, who supported her for senator, her for president.”

Republicans have charged Democrats with hypocrisy for not condemning Weiner’s behavior, along with San Diego Mayor Bob Filner, a former Democratic congressman accused of making inappropriate advances toward several women. Hillary Clinton, who was in San Diego on Wednesday for a private speech, has not discussed either case publicly.

Republicans this past week charged that television networks were propping up a potential Clinton campaign as they criticized plans by CNN to develop a documentary film on the former first lady and NBC to air a four-hour miniseries. The Republican National Committee said it would bar the networks from participating in future GOP debates if they proceed with the projects.

Queens n Continued from page 1 Saturday.

“It’s neat to hear how different every county fair is from ours,” Cassie said. Cassie said being Miami County Fair Queen has also been special by sharing the fun with her good friend, and Miami County Fair King, Travis Sloan.

“It’s been fun doing all the shows and stuff with my best friend who also is the fair king,” Cassie said. “We’ve been having a lot of fun this week together.”

“You get to know your king pretty well through the week,” Allison said, who shared her fair queen experience with Derek Gaier last year. “We knew each other a little bit before the fair through the Project Pride presentations, but I got to know him a lot better after spending a week with him as king and queen — it was pretty cool.”

The time and commitment of raising livestock also instill a sense of responsibility that sets the 4-H organization apart from other extracurricular activities, Cassie said.

“You have to spend a lot of time with the animals and walk the lambs every night instead of going out with friends and doing stuff,” Cassie said. “I like raising them from when they are little.”

Cassandra is a 10-year member of 4-H and will be a freshmen at Wright State University. Allison is a student at Covington High School.

Both girls are members of the Ears To Tails 4-H Club.

she showed the project off at her 50th class reunion recently, and even had an offer to sell the artwork.

She also excelled in the baked goods categories, taking a third place in yeast rolls. Her brother took first and sisterin-law took second in the same category.

“But, that’s OK,” she said with a grin.

The mother of five and grandmother of three is the epitome of a homemaker.

Weaver said she spent the majority of her adult life being an actual homemaker, making sure her children were well cared for and helping with their extracurricular events such as color guard and band.

She said while here daughter was in the color guard at Tippecanoe High School, she made all of the flags for the group.

“I worked at a print shop for a while, but my boss was very understanding,” she said. “He knew my family came first.”

Non-profits gain economic boost from The Paul G. Duke Foundation TROY — Seven nonprofit organizations supporting local entrepreneurs, community events, students and basic needs go an economic boost from The Paul G. Duke Foundation recently.

It has a long history of philanthropic support for nonprofit organizations. Paul Duke, businessman and philanthropist, evolved his local Duke Garden Centers into a national lawn and garden service, ChemLawn.

The Duke Foundation’s grant making efforts focus upon programs benefiting children, young adults and families in the Miami County area. Grants are made in the areas of arts, education, health and social services and are made for both general and specific project support, including seed money for innovative programs.

Watch for a new poll question in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News

It’s been eight months since the massacre at Sandy Hook. Now that that horrible day has faded from our memories, seemingly so too has the debate about gun control. I understand, it’s in the Constitution. But I think when the Constitution was written, our forefathers had no possible idea of the advances in gun technology that would be made in the 200-plus intervening years.

They had no idea the average citizen would possess

weapons capable of doing such unspeakable harm. I understand people’s need to own guns — but is there really a need for the average person to own the type of guns used in that school shooting?

When will be the right time to bring up the gun control debate once again?

Are we going to have to wait for another tragedy before we talk about gun control?

— Sally Jackson Troy

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Guardian, London on Gibraltar: As if there were already not enough going on around the Mediterranean, Gibraltar has raised its head again. The latest round of cross-border tension appears to have started in a row last year over fishing rights, when Spanish fishermen were expelled from Gibraltar’s waters for using large nets. Gibraltar’s answer to Spanish dragnet fishing was to dump blocks of concrete into the sea to create an artificial reef.

The issue of fishing rights reverts, as everything seems to in this dispute, to the Treaty of Utrecht of 1713. Spain does not recognize the existence of waters under Gibraltarian control, as it says those rights were not handed over when the colony was. There have been attempts - in the interim 300 years - to mediate the issue. Much of this pragmatism now appears to be in jeopardy.

From the moment Mariano Rajoy came to power, Madrid has adopted a harder line on Gibraltar, insisting on talks with David Cameron without the involvement of the Gibraltar authorities. Criticizing the conciliatory stance taken toward the British outpost by the previous socialist regime, the current foreign minister, José Manuel García-Margallo, appears intent on reversing everything his more able predecessors did.

Drivers have been forced to wait seven hours in the heat as Spain ramped up border checks. Claiming “the party is over”, Mr GarcíaMargallo suggested in a newspaper interview that Spain was mulling imposing a fee on every vehicle entering or leaving the territory, closing its airspace to flights to Gibraltar and changing the laws so that online gambling companies operating from the colony would have to use Spanish servers. Gibraltar’s first minister, Fabian Picardo, accused Spain of acting like North Korea.

If other sovereignty disputes are anything to go by, little is to be gained by the reversion to the old politics of the dispute that the hawkish Spanish minister is suggesting. Sovereignty is a zero-sum game and is best sidestepped by the very agreements that Mr García-Margallo appears to be jeopardizing.

The Korea Herald, Seoul, South Korea, on Samsung and Apple should end patent war: Will Samsung Electronics be able to turn the tables on Apple Inc. even after the U.S. government’s unexpected overruling of a sales ban on some older iPhone models in the American market?

That’s the question being raised as Samsung continues its legal battle against Apple. The world’s No. 1 smartphone maker disclosed Monday that it has submitted an appeal against a June ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission that Apple was not violating some of its patents.

In June, the ITC did rule that Apple infringed upon one Samsung patent and issued an order prohibiting the American tech giant from bringing in some of its devices manufactured in China. But the commission dismissed Samsung’s claim that Apple also violated three other Samsung patents.

Samsung has chosen to appeal the ITC decision to a U.S. federal court of appeals. If the court rules in favor of the Korean company, the ITC will have to go over the case.

Samsung’s announcement came following the U.S. Trade Representative’s surprise decision last week to veto the ITC’s import ban on Apple products from China.

The USTR said a product ban was inappropriate because the Samsung patent that Apple was accused of violating was a so-called FRAND patent.

FRAND stands for “fair, reasonable and nondiscriminatory.” …

Samsung is seeking to bypass the USTR’s veto. The three other patents that it claims Apple has violated are non-FRAND patents. If the appeals court and then the ITC uphold Samsung’s claim, the USTR won’t be able to apply the logic it used to overrule the June ITC decision.

Samsung’s more immediate concern is the imminent ITC ruling on Apple’s complaints filed against its Korean rival. If the commission rules in Apple’s favor, Samsung will be prohibited from selling some of its older products in the U.S. But this is unlikely to deal a serious blow to Samsung.

The USTR’s intervention is widely seen as an unwarranted move aimed at protecting Apple. Yet it strongly suggests that it is time for the two tech powerhouses to stop their meaningless and highly costly patent war. It is increasingly clear that neither can emerge triumphant.

LETTERS Now is the time to talk about gun control To the Editor: Late last year, when the tragic school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, everyone said it was not the right time to make a statement about gun control — and that we should all wait until the mourning was finished. Everyone said then was not the right time to talk about gun control.

Is now the right time to talk about gun control?

Antoinette Schlater SIDNEY — A few hours after Antoinette (“Nettie”) Schlater, 91, died peacefully in her sleep on August 8, 2013, a grandchild wrote about her, “Quite simply one of the best humans I have ever known. She lived with integrity, incredible abundant faith and unconditional love.”

Her six children, six in-laws, 23 grandchildren and 38 great-grandchildren would agree with this assessment of her life. What makes one woman so loved by so many?

Nettie’s character began to develop when as a child she cheerfully worked long hours on the family farm she loved in Maria Stein. She was especially close to her father, Henry Streacker, as she worked side-by-side with him on the farm. She once recalled that when she worked especially hard doing her chores her father would reward her by taking her to the store for an ice cream cone. Her mother was Agnes Fullenkamp Streacker.

After she married Herbert Schlater on June 6, 1945, she took on challenging new roles that further developed her character. She became the supportive mother of six vibrant children and the helpmate in working behind the scenes after Sidney Electric Company was started in 1953. Today, Sidney Electric is one of Sidney’s longest-running and most successful businesses.

In later years Nettie’s character matured as she became the loving matriarch of a family that included 84 people.

In many different ways she reached out to every person in her family with her ever-present smile and an encouraging word. She attended many of her grandchildren’s school activities and was proud of her record of attending every high school and college graduation ceremony of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Perhaps, another grandchild summed

up Nettie’s life the best when she wrote after her death: “Show up for people.

Work hard. Laugh a lot. Hold lots of babies. Say I love you. Feed people.

Visit the sick. Just a few of the things I learned from my Grandma Schlater.”

Nettie’s family is very greatful to the staff at Dorothy Love for all of the loving care she received.

Nettie was preceded in death by her husband Herbert along with her sisters Bernadette Keller, Johanna Marbaugh and Rose Seitz and her brother Leo Streacker.

She is survived by her sister Mary Phlipot. Other survivors include her children and in-laws: Nicholas and Janice Sharkey, Kenneth and Brenda Schlater, William and Elizabeth Schlater, John and Debra Schlater, John and Sharon Rittenhouse and James and Karen Schlater.

Nettie was a member of the Newman Club, Altar Rosary Society and Wilson Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. She also was a Eucharistic Minister at Wilson Memorial Hospital.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held Friday, August 16, 2013 at 10:30 AM at Holy Angels Catholic Church with Rev. Daniel Schmitmeyer officiating. Burial will follow at Graceland Cemetery in Sidney. The family will receive friends on Thursday from 2 to 8 p.m. and on Friday from 9 a.m. until the hour of service at Cromes Funeral Home, 302 S. Main Ave, Sidney.

Memorials may be made to the Lehman High School Tuition Assistance Fund, 2400 St. Mary’s, Sidney, the Holy Angels School Tuition Fund, and Wilson Memorial Hospital Foundation, 915 Michigan St, Sidney.

Guestbook condolences and expressions of sympathy may be made to the Schlater family at the funeral home’s website, www.cromesfh.com

Funeral Directory • Jack E. Cartwright TROY — Jack E. Cartwright, age 96, formerly of Troy, Ohio passed away on Saturday, August 10, 2013 at the Garbry Ridge Assisted Living in Piqua, Ohio.

Services are pending through Baird Funeral Home, Troy, Ohio.

Immigration campaign passes by some in GOP in a safe GOP district with few Latino voters, and he’s not on target lists drawn up by immigration proponents. So it’s no surprise that advocates wouldn’t be out in force at his events.

Yet his position is far from unique.

For all the effort that business and labor groups, activists and others who support action on immigration say they’re pouring into making themselves heard during Congress’ five-week summer recess, there are scores of House Republicans who are hearing very little of the clamor.

These lawmakers are insulated in safe districts where immigration activists don’t bother to venture, or so hardened in their positions that no one’s even trying to change their minds.

“Most of the energy is being spent on the folks who are gettable,” said Frank Sharry, executive director of America’s Voice, a pro-immigrant group.

“We’re not spending a lot of time on Republicans who are clearly going to vote ‘no.’”

Deaths of wandering autistic kids prompt action (AP)--The 3-year-old girl wandered away from her grandmother’s home in Wareham, Mass., in midApril. A frantic search began almost immediately, and within an hour little Alyvia Navarro was found unresponsive in a nearby pond. She was pronounced dead the next day.

A month later, across the continent, a larger search unfolded over three days as hundreds of emergency service personnel and volunteers fanned out around Clearlake, Calif., looking for 9-year-old Mikaela Lynch after she vanished from her backyard. The outcome grimly echoed the Wareham search: A dive team found Mikaela’s body in a muddy creek.

The two girls were the first of at least 14 children with autism known to have died this year after slipping away from their caregivers. All but one of them drowned, evidence of a fascination that many autistic children have with water. The body of the latest victim, 11-year-old Anthony Kuznia, was found Thursday in the Red River after a 24-hour search near his home in East Grand Forks, Minn.

The tragic phenomenon goes by various names — wandering, elopement, bolting — and about half of autistic children are prone to it, according to research published last year in the journal Pediatrics.

That would be a huge number. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated last year that 1 in 88 children are affected by autism, and a federal survey this year pegged the prevalence rate at one of every 50 schoolchildren — more than 1 million children in all.

Wandering has led to the deaths of more than 60 children in the past four years, and the fear of it can make daily life a harrowing, never-let-your-guard-down challenge for parents.

“We take steps at home — locks on every door, gates, alarms,” said writer Jo Ashline of Orange, Calif., whose 11-year-old son has autism. “But there’s always, in the forefront of our minds, the thought that one tiny mistake could prove fatal.”

Groups that advocate for autism-affected families, including the National Autism Association and Autism Speaks, are now making it a priority to increase awareness of wandering — among parents, professionals who deal with autistic children, and firstresponder agencies that handle missing-children cases.

The study in Pediatrics found that half of parents with autistic children had never received advice or guidance from a professional on how to cope with wandering.

Among those trying to change that is Sheila Medlam of Colwich, Kan., whose 5-year old son, Mason, drowned in a pond in July 2010 after squirming out of the family home through a window that had been raised about 8 inches because the air conditioner went out.

Medlam was at work; her adult daughter was at home but didn’t see Mason’s getaway.

“It only takes a second of inattention and they’re gone,” Medlam said in a telephone interview.

“They’re fast, they’re quiet.

They can disappear in an instant.”

Medlam now works with autistic children, operates a website that keeps track of wandering-related deaths and lobbies for a national alert system that would improve emergency responses.

On her website, she has written a wrenching account of the day Mason died — blaming herself for leaving the window open and for omitting potentially helpful details when she called 911, and blaming the first responders for lack of knowledge about how to search for autistic children.

“If only I could redo that day and just change one thing. But I can’t,” Medlam wrote. “All I can do is point out the mistakes I made, the mistakes others made, and the lack of resources that claimed my child’s life and ripped him from my arms forever.”

Boys and girls with autism aren’t the only children who stray from caregivers, of course, but their wanderings pose distinctive challenges.

While autism encompasses a spectrum of disorders, posing a range of developmental challenges, experts say the wanderers are often among the more severely affected. They often have minimal concept of danger, don’t readily absorb safety lessons, and have limited ability to communicate with others.

And once on the loose, they often make a beeline for a destination of interest that proves fatal: a busy highway or a body of water.

Lori McIlwain, executive director of the National Autism Association, says about 90 percent of the wandering fatalities in recent years have been drownings, and most of the other victims were struck by cars.

McIlwain, who lives in Cary, N.C., says her own son, Connor, wandered away from his school in 2007 and might well have ended up in danger had a concerned motorist not stopped and picked up the boy after getting no response to some questions.

In the ensuing years, McIlwain said, it’s been a constant challenge to teach her son how to keep himself safe.

Still, the fear that he’ll bolt remains “what we live with — it doesn’t go away,” she said.

Precautionary measures recommended by experts include locks and alarms on doors and windows, “Stop” signs placed in key locations in the home, and ID bracelets or tracking devices worn by the child.

Other recommendations from the National Autism Association include: — enrolling the children in swimming lessons, such as those offered by the YMCA for special-needs pupils.

— developing a family emergency plan to be used in the event of a wandering incident.

— informing local emergency services, trusted neighbors and staff at the child’s school or day-care center about details of the child’s interests and wandering patterns.

Even after taking such steps, many parents nonetheless sleep in their autistic child’s room to avert a nighttime getaway.

McIlwain knows a mother who takes away her daughter’s shoes when they’re home as a deterrent.

Lauri Dupree of Lumberton, Miss., says she and her husband, who are raising their 6-year-old grandson, Boo, have resorted to using a harness during outings and even sometimes at home because of his daily attempts to bolt.

“He has always done this since he learned to walk and has come close to losing his life on several occasions,” Dupree said.

Jo Ashline describes her home in California as resembling Fort Knox with its array of security measures.

“There’s always that state of worry — is he going to get out,” Ashline said of her son Andrew. “As he gets older and taller, are we going to be able to outsmart him? It only takes one time for him to outsmart us.”

BEL AIR, Md. (AP) — Immigration advocates are swarming the country this month, trying to persuade House Republicans to pass a comprehensive overhaul. It was hard to tell at the town-hall meeting that second-term Republican Rep. Andy Harris held recently in this town northeast of Baltimore.

The overflow crowd in the board of commissioners meeting room was overwhelmingly white and older, and booed loudly when one audience member asked Harris to support a path to citizenship for immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally.

Loud applause followed as Harris shot the idea down, calling it “a nonstarter” that’s “not going anywhere fast” in the House.

“The bottom line is there are plenty of immigration laws on the books,” Harris said. “The House is in no rush to take up immigration.”

Harris, a 56-year-old physician and the son of Eastern European immigrants, is

Gastonguay, along with his father, wife and their two children were lost at sea for weeks in an ill-fated attempt to leave the U.S. over PROBATE COURT OF MIAMI COUNTY, OHIO what they consider government interference in religion.

W. McGREGOR DIXON, JR.,

Opponents say that funding allows those groups to perform abortions.

The Gastonguays weren’t members of any church, and Hannah Gastonguay said their faith came from reading the Bible and through prayer.

“The Bible is pretty clear,” she said.

The family moved in November from Ash Fork, Ariz., to San Diego, where they lived on their boat as they prepared to set sail.

She said she gave birth to the couple’s 8-month-old girl on the boat, which was docked in a slip at the time.

In May, Hannah, her 30-year-old husband Sean, his father Mike, and the couple’s daughters, 3-year-old Ardith and baby Rahab set off. They wouldn’t touch land again for 91 days, she said.

She said at first, “We were cruising.”

But within a couple of weeks “when we came out there, storm, storm, storm.”

The boat had taken a beating, and they decided to set course for the Marquesas Islands.

Instead, they found themselves in a “twilight zone,” taking more and more damage, leaving them unable to make progress.

They could have used a sail called a genoa, she said, but they risked snapping off the mast and losing their radio and ability

to communicate.

They had been on the ocean for about two months and were low on supplies. They were out of food and were down to “some juice and some honey.” She said they were able to catch fish, but they didn’t see any boats.

Still, we “didn’t feel like we were going to die or anything. We believed God would see us through,” she said.

At one point a fishing ship came into contact with them but left without providing assistance.

A Canadian cargo ship came along and offered supplies, but when they pulled up alongside it, the vessels bumped and the smaller ship sustained even more damage.

They were getting hit by “squall after, squall, after squall.”

“We were in the thick of it, but we prayed,” she said. “Being out on that boat, I just knew I was going to see some miracles.”

They watched the surrounding storms disperse, and “next thing you know the sun is out.

It’s amazing.”

Eventually, their boat was spotted by a helicopter that had taken off from a nearby Venezuelan fishing vessel, which ended up saving them.

“The captain said, ‘Do you know where you’re at? You’re in the middle of nowhere,’” she said.

Lobster shell disease creeping northward PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A shell disease that has plagued the southern New England lobster industry for years by making lobsters unsightly and in some cases unmarketable appears to be creeping northward to the lobster-rich grounds off the coast of Maine.

The number of lobsters suffering from shell disease remains tiny in Maine — only three out of every 1,000 lobsters sampled last year had the disease. But scientists and lobstermen are concerned because the prevalence grew fivefold from 2010 to 2012.

The disease, which is not harmful to humans, first became noticeable in southern New England waters in the 1990s. About one in every three or four lobsters caught in waters off southern Massachusetts and Rhode Island in recent years has been diseased.

Carl Wilson, the state lobster biologist with the Department of Marine Resources, said people should be concerned — but not alarmed — by the numbers. People who look only at the percentage increase could get spooked and say, “Oh, my god, that’s a huge increase,” he said.

“But it’s not, considering all the sampling we have and all the caveats of our sampling design,” Wilson said. “But it’s something we are watching.”

Lobster is one of the most important fisheries in Maine and New England, valued at more than $400 million to fishermen and hundreds of millions more to coastal communities.

The fishery in southern New England waters has already been hurt by the so-

called epizootic shell disease, which is caused by bacteria that eat away at a lobster’s shell, leaving behind ugly lesions.

Diseased lobsters can still be processed but are unmarketable in the more valuable live market. The disease stresses lobsters and can sometimes kill them but doesn’t taint their meat.

When biologists first began sampling for the disease in Rhode Island, the prevalence was small: less than 1 percent in 1996 and 4 percent in 1997. But in 1998, the percentage jumped to nearly 20 percent; since then, it’s ranged from 18 to 34 percent a year.

A similar story has played out in Massachusetts south of Cape Cod, where an average of 22 percent of sampled lobsters have been diseased from 2000 to 2011. The rate peaked at 38 percent in 2011.

Shell disease could be linked to a number of pressures such as rising water temperatures, pollution and low oxygen levels in the water, said Kathy Castro, a fisheries biologist at the University of Rhode Island Fisheries Center. Young lobsters can molt out of the disease when they shed their shells and grow new ones; egg-bearing females have the highest prevalence because they don’t molt while they’re carrying eggs. Lobsters can die when the infection gets particularly bad and prevents them from properly molting.

Shell disease is much less prevalent in the colder waters of the Gulf of Maine, which stretches from Cape Cod to Nova Scotia, than it is in southern New England.

But it’s still around.

PHOENIX (AP) — A northern Arizona family has survived being lost at sea for weeks after an illfated attempt to leave the U.S. over what they consider government interference in religion.

Hannah Gastonguay and her family will fly back home Sunday after taking their two small children and her father-inlaw and setting sail from San Diego for the tiny island nation of Kiribati in May. Weeks into their journey, the Gastonguays hit a series of storms that damaged their small boat, leaving them adrift for weeks, unable to make progress. They were eventually picked up by a Venezuelan fishing vessel, transferred to a Japanese cargo ship and taken to Chile.

Their flights home were arranged by U.S. Embassy officials, Gastonguay said. The U.S. State Department declined to comment on Sunday.

The months-long journey has been “pretty exciting ” and “little scary at certain points,” Gastonguay told The Associated Press by telephone.

The 26-year-old mother said they wanted to go to Kiribati because “we didn’t want to go anywhere big.” She said they understood the island to be “one of the least developed countries in the world.”

Kiribati is a group of islands just off the equator and the international date line about halfway between Hawaii and Australia. The total population is just over 100,000 people of primarily Micronesian descent.

Hannah Gastonguay said her family was fed up with government control in the U.S. As Christians they don’t believe in “abortion, homosexuality, in the state-controlled church,” she said.

U.S. “churches aren’t their own,” Gastonguay said, suggesting that government regulation interfered with religious independence.

Among other differences, she said they had a problem with being “forced to pay these taxes that pay for abortions we don’t agree with.” While federal law bars public funding for abortion, state attempts to block Medicaid funding for organizations that provide the procedure have met with legal hurdles.

Major statement: PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Jason Dufner finally cracked a smile, and gave a slight pump of the fist, saving all that emotion for a big occasion.

He won the PGA Championship.

Dufner played the kind of golf that wins majors Sunday with a steady diet of fairways and greens that made it too tough for Jim Furyk or anyone else to catch him. Making bogeys on the last two holes at Oak Hill, Dufner closed with a 2-under 68 to capture his first major and atone for a meltdown two years ago in Atlanta.

“It’s been a tough day. It was a long day. Tough golf course,” Dufner said. “It probably hasn’t hit me yet. I can’t believe this is happening to me. … I just decided that I was going to be confident and really put my best foot forward and play aggressive and try to win this thing. I wasn’t going to just kind of play scared or soft.

“I’m happy to get the job done. It’s a big step in my career.”

Dufner wasn’t sure he would get another chance after the 2011 PGA Championship, when he blew a four-shot lead with four holes to play and lost in a playoff to Keegan

Bradley. He wasn’t about to let this one get away. Dufner won by playing a brand of golf that matches the expression on his face. It wasn’t exciting, and it didn’t need to be.

The turning point at Oak Hill was the final two holes — on the front nine. Dufner made a short birdie on the eighth hole to take a one-shot lead, and Furyk made bogey on the ninth hole to fall two shots behind. Furyk, a 54-hole leader for the second time in as many years in a major, couldn’t make up any ground with a procession of pars along the back nine. He finally made a 12-foot birdie putt on the 16th, but only after Dufner spun back a wedge to 18 inches for a sure birdie.

Furyk also made bogey on the last two holes, taking two chips to reach the 17th green and coming up short into mangled rough short of the 18th green, where all he could do was hack it onto the green. Furyk closed with a 71 to finish three shots behind.

Dufner finished at 10-under 270, four shots better than the lowest score at Oak Hill in five previous majors. Jack Nicklaus won the 1980 PGA Championship at 274.

win a men’s major title, pulled within two shots on the 13th hole and was poised to make a run until his tee shot settled on a divot hole in the 14th fairway. He chunked that flip wedge into a bunker and made bogey and closed with a 70 to finish alone in third. In his last three tournaments — two majors and a World Golf Championship — Stenson has two runner-ups and a third.

Jonas Blixt, another Swede, also had a 70 and finished fourth. Masters champion Adam Scott never made a

serious of move and shot 70 to tie for fifth. Defending champion Rory McIlroy made triple bogey on the fifth hole to lose hope, those he still closed with a 70 and tied for eighth, his first top 10 in a major this year.

Dufner two-putted for bogey on the 18th from about 10 feet and shook hands with Furyk as if he had just completed a business deal. He hugged his wife, Amanda, and gave her love tap on the tush with the cameras rolling.

Cincinnati Reds’ Joey Votto watches his game winning sacrifice fly in the 13th inning during a baseball game against the San Diego Padres Sunday in Cincinnati.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Xavier Paul and Jack Hannahan were looking for opportunities to redeem themselves after making mistakes that helped cost the Reds a game on Saturday.

They didn’t have to wait long.

Paul came off the bench to hit a game-tying home run in the eighth inning and Hannahan scored the winning run on Joey Votto’s sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 13th to give Cincinnati a 3-2 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday.

Paul committed one error and made a terrible baserunning blunder on Saturday. Hannahan was charged with a career-high three errors and grounded into a double play in that loss.

“Live to fight another day,” Hannahan said. “One of the best things about baseball is you can put a bad day behind you and show up the next day ready to win.”

Hannahan drew a one-out walk from Tim Stauffer (1-1) and Shin-Soo Choo snapped a 0-for16 slump with a one-out double to right field. Ryan Hanigan, pinch-hitting against a drawn-in, five-man infield and shallow twoman outfield, was hit by a pitch to load the bases.

The Padres went back to three outfielders with everybody drawn in, and Votto hit a fly to left field to drive in Hannahan from third base.

Paul tied the score with a

two-run, pinch-hit homer off Ian Kennedy in the eighth and the Reds overcame two more errors for their fourth win in five games. They finished their eight-game homestand with five wins after starting 1-2 against St. Louis.

“After last night and making a few mistakes that some people say cost us the game, to be able to come back today late in the game and help put the team in position to win makes me feel good,” Paul said.

The Padres, who’ve lost four of their last five games, were 1 for 17 with runners in scoring position and left 15 men on base.

“We’re just having a bad stretch,” second baseman Logan Forsythe said. “We’re still playing good, fundamental baseball.

There’s just a couple of things we need to get better at, and one of them is good situational hitting.”

Sam LeCure (2-1), Cincinnati’s seventh pitcher, pitched 1 1-3 innings for the win.

Kennedy was positioned to improve his career record against the Reds to 4-0 in four starts.

Kennedy, in his second start for San Diego after being acquired from Arizona in a July 31 trade, allowed one hit — pitcher Mike Leake’s leadoff single in the third — in 7 1-3 scoreless innings and retired 16 consecutive batters before pinch-hitter Zack Cozart reached with an infield single.

Kyle Busch finally wins again at Watkins Glen Bolt wins 100 title at worlds His legs were hurting, the rain was pouring and he was trailing late in the race.

Doesn’t matter. This is Usain Bolt.

And nothing gets in the way of him and first place, especially when he’s driven as he was Sunday night in the 100-meter final at the world championships.

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) — There was no slipup on the final lap this time, so Kyle Busch’s victory celebration at Watkins Glen International was as sweet as it gets.

Bumped aside a year ago by Brad Keselowski on the final lap as they sped around an oil-covered track, Busch held the reigning Sprint Cup champion at bay on a two-lap dash to the checkered flag Sunday.

Bills’ rookies impressive in 44-20 win over Colts INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — EJ Manuel’s teammates and coaches were pretty darn impressed with their rookie quarterback.

Buffalo’s first-round draft pick thought he could have done even more. Give him time.

After completing 16 of 21 passes for 107 yards with one touchdown and a quarterback rating of 102.7, Manuel gave himself a “B” in his preseason debut — a solid mark after leading the Bills to a 44-20 victory Sunday at Indianapolis.

“My main thing was I wanted to operate the offense like coach (Nathaniel) Hackett has taught us and get all the other guys in position,” Manuel said. “The veterans have done a great job of bringing me along and things like that. The main thing is just continuing to go out there and execute.”

Sure, it was only pre-

season and he posted most of the big numbers against Indianapolis’ backup defense, and, of course, there were a few mistakes.

But overall, Manuel executed the safe, simple game plan the way the Bills intended.

His short passes were accurate and on time.

He sped up the game by quickly getting the Bills to the line. On the few occasions he ran, Manuel was effective. And when pressed to make plays in the 2-minute offense, he drove the Bills into scoring position and then fired a rocket to Dorin Dickerson for a 17-yard score that broke a 13-13 tie with 14 seconds left in the half.

It may not have been as impressive as Andrew Luck’s debut last season.

He threw a 63-yard TD pass to Donald Brown on his first attempt at Lucas Oil Stadium, and led the Colts to a 38-3 victory

over St. Louis.

Luck played only two series Sunday, finishing 4 of 6 for 51 yards and was the only Indy quarterback not to lead the Colts on a scoring drive. He was sacked once. Backup Matt Hasselbeck played three series for the Colts, throwing a 45-yard TD pass to T.Y. Hilton, and departed after a tipped pass was picked off by Crezdon Butler.

“Obviously, everybody, top to bottom, is disappointed. We never envisioned going out and playing a football game and having the outcome that we had,” Colts coach Chuck Pagano said.

“We’ve obviously got to play better, and we will play better.”

Manuel, on the other hand, played the entire first half and improved as the game went along — just as he did in last weekend’s scrimmage.

Grading it may prove tough. Only three of

Manuel’s completions went longer than 10 yards and two of the incompletions were throwaways.

While Manuel played mostly with Buffalo’s starters, the Colts pulled their regulars early and had second and third stringers on the field when Manuel looked his best — going 9 of 10 for 68 yards in the 2-minute drill that impressed new coach Doug Marrone.

“Here you are right before a half, 1:50, three timeouts left, and you’re making decisions. Are we going to try to run out the clock? Are we going to go 2-minute?

Hey, let’s go 2-minute,” he said. “To do that is very impressive, no matter who you are.”

Manuel wasn’t the only productive Buffalo rookie.

Receiver Marquise Goodwin, an Olympic long jumper with worldclass speed, set up one Bills score with a 53-yard

A much needed win

CLEVELAND (AP) — Leave it to Nick Swisher, a man of many words, to come up with the best explanation after the Cleveland Indians broke their six-game losing streak with a 6-5 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday.

“It didn’t matter how we got it,” he said, shaking his head.

“That’s a much-needed win, not only for us but for our fans. It’s crazy how this game works.”

No one would disagree with Swisher’s assessment.

The comeback from a fiverun deficit helped the Indians avoid their first 0-7 homestand since Aug. 27-Sept. 2, 1990, and took some of the sting out of what had been a disastrous week.

Cleveland lost the first six games on its biggest homestand of the season and appeared well on its way to No. 7.

“It’s been a rough week,” Swisher said. “This is huge for us.”

Michael Bourn drove in the go-ahead run with a seventhinning single.

The Indians, held to one hit through five innings, got back in the game in the sixth on two-run homers by Swisher and Mike Aviles, who entered the game in the third after shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera was ejected.

Carlos Santana’s leadoff homer in the seventh off J.C. Gutierrez (0-3) tied the game.

Lonnie Chisenhall drew a oneout walk and moved to second on Drew Stubbs’ single. Nick Maronde relieved, but Bourn lined his first pitch to left field, giving Cleveland the lead.

“I can’t really explain it to you,” Bourn said of the comeback. “We never gave up.”

For five innings, it looked as if the Indians were about to go winless on the homestand. Justin Masterson allowed five runs in 4 1-3 innings and Cleveland’s hitters were com-

pletely baffled by Angels starter Jerome Williams.

“The one thing we did was we kept playing,” manager Terry Francona said. “That’s the kind of team we have to be.”

Matt Albers (3-1) pitched 1 2-3 innings and Chris Perez recorded his 18th save as the Indians’ bullpen threw 4 2-3 scoreless innings.

Perez, who allowed four runs in the ninth to blow a save against Detroit in the first game of the homestand Monday, retired the side in order in the ninth.

The Indians had won 10 of 11 and were only three games behind Detroit in the American League Central when the week began, but were swept in a four-game series against the Tigers and lost the first two games to the Angels.

The Indians, who were outscored 42-21 on the homestand, trail Detroit by seven

games as they begin a ninegame road trip that takes them to Minnesota, Oakland and Los Angeles.

Francona admitted he had a meeting with his players following Saturday night’s 7-2 loss, a game in which the Indians committed a season-high four errors. His message centered on the proper way to deal with frustration when things are going poorly.

“We can’t just show up,” Francona said. “We have to find a way to be better than the other team and play nine innings.”

The Indians looked sloppy and frustrated in the early going. Cabrera, who failed to make two plays in the second, was ejected in the bottom of the inning for arguing a strike call. Aviles replaced Cabrera at shortstop and made a throwing error in the fourth.

major with a round of 63, joining Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, Raymond Floyd, Nicklaus and Johnny Miller.

He is the third firsttime major champion of the year, and the 15th champion in the last 19 majors who had never won the big one. Woods is responsible for the latest trend, mainly because he’s not winning them at the rate he once was.

Woods extended his drought to 18 majors without winning, and this time he wasn’t even in the hunt. For the second straight round, Woods finished before the leaders even teed off.

He closed with a 70 to tie for 40th, 14 shots out of the lead.

“I didn’t give myself many looks and certainly didn’t hit the ball good enough to be in it,” Woods said.

ing groundout in first gave the Angels a 2-0 lead. Mike Trout drove in two runs with a basesloaded single in the second for the Angels, who came into town with a four-game losing streak.

The second-inning rally began with one out when Hank Conger singled off Swisher’s glove at first. Cabrera couldn’t field Grant Green’s hard ground ball, which moved Conger to third. Masterson had a chance to get out of the inning when Conger was forced out at home on J.B. Shuck’s ground ball, but he walked Kole Calhoun to load the bases.

Trout grounded a 1-2 pitch to the left of Cabrera, who took a half step and made no attempt to dive for the ball. Green and Shuck scored on the play.

Cabrera wasn’t around much longer. Leading off the bottom of the inning, he stepped out of the box after taking a called second strike and exchanged

swirled all around and the tires kept churning.

“A big sigh of relief, just a deep breath. Whew!” said Busch, who also was victimized two years ago while leading on a green-white-checkered finish and finished third. “I was just trying to take it all in and figure it all out. The last couple of years here have been tough, and today it could have been tough again.”

Keselowski finished second in this race for the third straight time, and challenged Busch on the final lap, pulling to his rear bumper at one point. There was no bump this time.

“We had a shot at it,” Keselowski said. “I was going to have to wreck him to really get it, and I didn’t want to do that.

There’s racing and there’s wrecking. Those are two different things.

“Everybody defines them a little differently, and I guess that’s the code you live your life by. If I was going to take out Kyle, it would have been wrecking in my mind, and there’s a distinct difference.”

Racing can be all about luck sometimes, and Busch couldn’t get much luckier than he was on this day.

Polesitter Marcos Ambrose dominated the race, leading 51 laps, but his good fortune — he was seeking his third straight Cup win at The Glen — finally ran out just past the halfway point of the 90-lap race.

Crew chief Dave Rogers was planning to have Busch pit on lap 60, but his crew noticed fluid on the track and brought the No. 18 Toyota in a lap early. Busch was in the pits when a caution flew and Ambrose had to pit under yellow, losing his spot to Busch at the front.

“That was a game-changer right there,” said Busch, who won from the pole in 2008 at The Glen.

Busch held on through a series of cautions over the final 28 laps. Ambrose, who restarted 12th, crashed late trying to make

players or the rebuilt special teams, Buffalo saw exactly what it wanted.

“I think I showed that I can matriculate the ball down the field,” Manuel said. “I was glad we were able to go out there and get six points before the end of the half.”

Notes: Among the notable Colts players sitting out Sunday was Dwayne Allen, who Pagano said would miss a couple of weeks with a foot injury. … Among the notable Bills missing the game were receiver Stevie Johnson and quarterback Kevin Kolb. … C.J. Spiller averaged 9.0 yards on four carries. … The Colts lost a handful of players to injuries. The most serious were to linebacker Justin Hickman (right foot) and cornerback Cassius Vaughn (wrist), who were expected to have MRIs.

Indians rally from 5-run deficit, beat Angels 6-5

AP PHOTO Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Joe Smith throws to first to hold Los Angeles Angels’ Mike Trout close in the eighth inning of a baseball game Sunday in Cleveland.

Major Asked if he had ever been nervous, she replied, “If he has been, he’s never told me.”

Among the first to greet Dufner was Bradley, who beat him in the PGA playoff at Atlanta and was behind the “Dufnering” craze from earlier this year.

Dufner went to an elementary school in Dallas as part of a charity day for the Byron Nelson Classic. A photo was taken of Dufner slumped against the wall in the classroom next to the children, his eyes glazed over, as the teacher taught them about relaxation and concentration techniques.

The pose was mimicked all over the country, giving Dufner some celebrity. Now he’s known for something far more important — major champion.

Dufner became the sixth player to win a

kickoff return and tied the score at 13 with a 107-yard kickoff return.

Da’Rick Rogers caught a 6-yard TD pass to open the second-half scoring. Backup quarterback Jeff Tuel completed his first 10 passes and led the Bills to three scores, after replacing Manuel to start the third quarter.

Cornerback Jumal Rolle closed out the scoring with a 17-yard interception return in the fourth quarter.

It was a promising start for a team that changed general managers, coaches, coordinators and quarterback during the offseason.

Indy got two field goals from Adam Vinatieri, the diving catch from Hilton, who bounced into the end zone, and a 72-yard fumble return from Daxton Swanson.

Thought the Colts didn’t show much with their revamped offensive line, the new defensive

words with plate umpire Vic Carapazza. He then struck out swinging, argued with the umpire again and was ejected.

Cabrera flung his bat and helmet to the ground before going to the dugout.

Williams was in complete control going into the sixth.

He retired 10 in a row before Bourn singled with two outs.

Swisher’s drive cleared the wall in left and cut the lead to 5-2. After Jason Kipnis walked, Aviles homered into the bleachers in left, which finished Williams.

“Jerome showed so many good things out there today,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. “He pitched a strong game.”

NOTES: Angels OF Peter Bourjos (broken right wrist) will be recalled this week from his rehabilitation assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake. He has been on the 15-day disabled list since June 30. … Angels LHP Jason Vargas (blood clot in armpit) threw a bullpen session before the game and could start Tuesday against the Yankees. … The Angels wrap up their seven-game road trip with a four-game series against the Yankees. Los Angeles RHP Garrett Richardson (3-4) takes on New York RHP Hiroki Kuroda (10-7) in the opener Monday. … Santana was back behind the plate for the first time since Thursday. He played first base Friday and was the designated hitter Saturday, allowing Yan Gomes to catch. … The Indians begin their ninegame, 10-day road trip Monday in Minnesota. Cleveland RHP Danny Salazar (1-0) faces Twins LHP Andrew Albers (1-0) in a battle of top prospects in the three-game series opener.

a run with an ill-handling car and finished 23rd. He entered the race with an average finish of second in five previous starts at Watkins Glen and also had won all three Nationwide races he’d entered at the storied road course in upstate New York.

“That’s just the way it goes,” Ambrose said. “We put on a strong showing. It wasn’t our day, but we’ve had plenty of good days here.”

The field didn’t have to worry about five-time Watkins Glen winner Tony Stewart. The man known as Smoke is out indefinitely after breaking two bones in his right leg last Monday night in a sprint car race in Iowa. Stewart, who has undergone two surgeries, saw his streak of 521 consecutive Cup starts come to an end. Max Papis drove Stewart’s No. 14 Chevrolet on Sunday and finished 15th.

Several drivers had stickers on their cars honoring Stewart with the message: “Get Well Smoke 14.”

Martin Truex Jr. was third, followed by Carl Edwards and Juan Pablo Montoya. Clint Bowyer, Joey Logano, Jimmie Johnson, Kurt Busch and AJ Allmendinger rounded out the top 10.

Jeff Gordon entered the race with momentum in ninth place in the points standings after a second last week at Pocono, but his day was ruined early with a wreck on lap 15. The four-time Watkins Glen winner finished 36th and dropped to 13th in the standings with four races to go until the Chase for the Sprint Cup title starts.

The top 10 drivers in points and the drivers from 11th to 20th with the most wins earn wild-card berths for the 10-race postseason. Kurt Busch moved into 11th place, just two points behind Truex and only four behind ninth-place Greg Biffle.

Ambrose was unchallenged for the lead through the first half of the race, building a margin of nearly 3 seconds over Kyle Busch, who started fifth and was up to second by lap 21.

Troy Daily News • www.troydailynews.com

Anti-PED foundation founder disappointed in A-Rod NEW YORK (AP) — The way the founder of an antisteroids organization sees it Alex Rodriguez owes him an explanation.

He’s still waiting.

“It’s not mad at him, it’s not anything to be mad about.

It’s disappointed,” Don Hooton told the Associated Press at Yankee Stadium on Sunday. “I really hoped I would’ve heard from Alex before (his suspension) came out” last week.

A tireless crusader against PEDs since his son Taylor committed suicide at 17 after becoming depressed following

his withdrawal from steroids, Don Hooton quickly enlisted Rodriguez in 2009, when the New York Yankees slugger addmitted to using illegal drugs with the Texas Rangers from 2001-03, to help the Taylor Hooton Foundation.

Rodriguez did most of his work for the foundation out of the spotlight — meeting thousands of kids in about 36 appearances for the group — and Hotoon said A-Rod was an exemplary volunteer.

But Hooton feels Rodriguez’s recent 211-game suspension as a result of Major League

Baseball’s investigation into Biogenesis, the now-closed Florida anti-aging clinic, has overshadowed everything else.

“He’s lived up to every part of his obligation to us, except this one,” Hooton said. “And it’s more important that all the others.”

The Yankees third baseman is appealing the suspension.

Hooton was reluctant to vilify Rodriguez when rumors first started emerging about the three-time AL MVP’s link to Biogenesis. Once it became clear he would be suspended, though, the foundation’s board

chose to end its association with the twice-tainted star.

Hooton said they will likely remove references to Rodriguez in the organization’s materials — except as an example of a player who relapsed.

“If anything he becomes an example of how powerful these drugs are,” Hooton said. “It still baffles me that one of the best guys that’s ever played the game feels the need to go back to these drugs. It’s crazy.”

An annual event for the foundation held in a suite at Yankee Stadium drew more than 60 donors paying $500 per ticket. There was an auction with

items from Derek Jeter, Yogi Berra, Giants receiver Victor Cruz and others, but nothing from Rodriguez. Hooton said they have items from the generous 38-year-old Rodriguez, but he didn’t think it was appropriate to use them.

Still, Hooton looks forward to talking to Rodriguez, who didn’t talk to media before Sunday’s game.

“We’ll welcome the discussion. Honestly, I’d like to find a way to embrace him. I really would. I don’t know what that would look like,” Hooton said.

“But I’d like to begin a dialogue with him.”

No stopping him In steady rain, Bolt reigns again in 100 at worlds MOSCOW (AP) — His legs were hurting, the rain was pouring and he was trailing late in the race.

Doesn’t matter. This is Usain Bolt.

And nothing gets in the way of him and first place, especially when he’s driven as he was Sunday night in the 100-meter final at the world championships.

Bolt blew by Justin Gatlin with about 30 meters to go and never glanced back.

He also didn’t even crack a smile when he crossed the finish line because this took a lot more work than the world’s fastest sprinter usually needs.

Gatlin was second and Bolt’s Jamaican teammate Nesta Carter took third.

Of all Bolt’s titles, this one will have a special meaning, considering he false-started two years ago in the final to

lose his crown.

Now, it’s his again.

“It’s always great to get back your title,” said Bolt, who won in 9.77 seconds.

“I’m happy with myself I got it done.”

Like Bolt, Brittney Reese and Ashton Eaton were just as dominant. Reese won her third straight long jump gold, while Eaton now owns the world and Olympic decathlon titles.

Many of Bolt’s top rivals were missing. Gone were Tyson Gay (doping offense) and Jamaican teammate Yohan Blake, who was the reigning champion but skipped the worlds because of an injured hamstring.

Shortly after the race, Bolt sauntered around the track with his country’s flag tied around his neck like a cape. These days, he has to be the Superman of his

sport. Given all the recent doping scandals, track needs someone to save the day.

For now, he will settle for blowing away the dark cloud over his country, a proud sprinting nation.

Browns condemn Kosar’s on-air comments about Rams

40369605

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns have told former quarterback Bernie Kosar to “watch his words.”

On Sunday, team CEO Joe Banner condemned Kosar for harsh on-air comments he made about the St. Louis Rams during Thursday night’s TV broadcast of their exhibition opener against Cleveland.

Kosar, working as an analyst, was brutal in his assessment of third-string quarterback Kellen Clemens, the Rams’ receivers and receivers coach Ray Sherman.

Banner said Kosar’s conduct was unacceptable.

“We don’t condone the personal and unprofessional approach that Bernie took with some of his comments during the broadcast Thursday night,” Banner said in a statement released by the team. “We’ve spoken to Bernie, he understands that, and we would expect the situation is resolved moving forward. We’ve also reached out to the Rams organization and have shared those same sentiments.”

The Browns said Kosar called Rams coach Jeff Fisher personally and apologized Sunday. The Browns also said Kosar will continue to work the preseason games along with play-by-play announcer Jim Donovan.

Kosar, who is scheduled to work this Thursday’s telecast of the Browns’ home game against Chicago, did not immediately return messages from The Associated Press seeking comment.

Fisher first noted the Browns were “a first-class organization” on Saturday before saying he had lost a lot of respect for Kosar, and was disappointed he would target Clemens.

“I feel bad for them (the Browns) that they had someone doing the broadcast feel the need to speak that way about players, specifically on our team and coaches for that matter,” he said. “I’m just surprised that Bernie has such a lack of respect for players and this game. To be honest with you, I lost a lot of respect for him. It’s highly unlikely

he knew anything about our football team, but felt the need to make those comments. I don’t think they were justified.”

“I’m just surprised that Bernie has such a lack of respect for players and for this game.

So, to be honest with you, I lost a lot of respect for him. This game is a preseason game. Players are playing hard. It’s highly unlikely that he knew anything about our football team but felt the need to make those comments. I don’t think they were justified.”

After Donovan relayed a story during the telecast that Clemens had recently met the Pope, Kosar said, “Bless me father for I have sinned. I have to watch him the whole fourth quarter.”

Later, Kosar called the Rams’ receivers “horrible” and said of Sherman, “I’m checking through the itinerary here of guys, of coaches to see who the receiver coach is, to make sure I don’t know this guy is,” Kosar said. “Because he’s not doing very good, either.”

Clemens didn’t take the chance to fire back at Kosar when the St. Louis PostDispatch asked for a comment.

“He gave us a lot of great examples throughout his career of what it’s like to play quarterback, and how to do it at a high level,” Clemens told the paper. “Unfortunately, he also gave us a couple of examples in his commentating career of what not to do.”

This isn’t the first time Kosar, one of the most popular players in Cleveland history, has come under scrutiny for his on-air behavior. He has publicly talked about how head injuries sustained during his NFL career have affected his speech, making him sometimes slur his words. He has also been addicted to pain medications, gone through a divorce and had financial troubles.

Fisher referred to some of Kosar’s problems while defensing Clemens.

“Bernie’s got his issues, they’re well documented,” Fisher said. “Kellen played well.

He played hard and made plays. He got guys deep and had a drop. He played well.”
