Fair wraps up successful week Melody Vallieu

The 2013 Miami County Fair — fared well this year, according to Miami County Fair Board President Mike Jess.

Jess said the weather was spot on and the community flocked to the County Road 25-A gates to support the annual week-long event.

“Overall things went pretty good,” he said. “There were a few glitches here and there, but we got them straightened out and things went really well.”

He said attendance was only at 97 percent of the record-breaking 115,000 visitors from 2012. But still up from the three previous years — so fair board members are still happy.

“We had a great Monday,

Tuesday and Wednesday this year, but a slow Thursday,” he said.

The weather cooperated, evening getting a little chilly at times, Jess admitted.

“You couldn’t have asked for better weather,” he said.

But a few cooler days, once even down to 58 degrees in the evening, was a big switch from a normal fairtime thermostat reading.

out the new process, and the prisons department declined to comment Thursday.

However, it’s unlikely Ohio would switch to a method not involving drugs. The state eliminated the electric chair as an option a decade ago in part out of prison authorities’ concerns about the potential stress on those carrying out the execution.

Whatever the approach, it will apply to the November execution of Ronald Phillips,

WASHINGTON (AP) — New revelations from leaker Edward Snowden that the National Security Agency has overstepped its authority thousands of times since 2008 are stirring renewed calls on Capitol Hill for serious changes to NSA spy programs, undermining White House hopes that President Barack Obama had quieted the controversy with his assurances of oversight.

An internal audit provided by Snowden to The Washington Post shows the agency has repeatedly broken privacy rules or exceeded its legal authority every year since Congress granted it broad new powers in 2008.

In one of the documents, agency personnel are instructed to remove details and substitute more generic language in reports to the Justice Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence — reports used as the basis for informing Congress.

Obama has repeatedly said that Congress was thoroughly briefed on the programs revealed by Snowden in June, but some senior lawmakers said they had been unaware of the NSA audit until they read the news on Friday. The programs

Ohio’s new execution process to be created by October COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio is likely within two months to again change the way it executes prisoners, as drug sources dry up and supplies expire.

The latest change, which would be the third time the state has made a major change related to the drug it uses in lethal injection, is expected no later than Oct. 4, according to a court filing.

TROY — State and local fire inspectors are still searching for the cause of the fire which cause $150,000 in damage to the home located at 1214 McGovern Drive Thursday.

According to city of Troy Fire Department’s Scott Gheen, the fire started in the garage of the home after 5 p.m.

Both occupants were at home at the time of the blaze which cause $100,000 to the structure and $50,000 in content damages.

One occupant was treated by Troy medics at the scene. One firefighter was treated at Upper Valley Medical Center for chest pains. Engine 1 and Engine 2 provided services at the scene of the blaze.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation by state and local fire inspectors. Gheen said the fire department was assisted by Casstown Volunteer Fire Department.

BUSINESS ROUNDUP

n Continued from page 1 “I can’t remember a fair when I went to my camper at night and actually heard the camper next to mine’s heat coming on,” Jess said.

He said all of the concessionaires he spoke to were happy, some even said their earnings were up from 2012.

“A couple of them said this is the best Miami County Fair they have ever had,” Jess said.

The mixed martial arts fighting that took the place of the demolition derby on Thursday night seemed to be enjoyed by the crowd, according to Jess.

“It was about the same crowd turnout as the demolition derby,” he said. “For a first time event, everyone was pleased. We will look into and see if it’s something we want to bring back next year, or look for something else.”

Events that went over really well, Jess said, were the Tiger Talks show and the along with chainsaw wood carver.

“There were big crowds each time they had a show,” he said.

The entertainment tent was at least half full every time he peeked his head in to see how things were going, Jess said.

“Hopefully next year we can get them boosted back up,” Jess said.

Senate Judiciary

Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy announced he would hold hearings into the new disclosures.

“I remain concerned that we are still not getting straightforward answers from the NSA,” the Vermont Democrat said in a statement.

Senate Intelligence Committee chairwoman Dianne Feinstein said her committee had been notified of compliance prob-

lems — not by seeing the internal audit but through legally required reports to her committee.

“In all such cases, the incidents have been addressed by ending or adapting the activity,” the California Democrat said in a statement.” She added, “The committee has never identified an instance in which the NSA has intentionally abused its authority to conduct surveillance for inappropriate purpos-

es.”

But she said that committee would be asking for additional reports in future, and members would start making routine trips to the NSA to oversee its activities.

Her Republican House counterpart, Intelligence chairman Mike Rogers, said human error was inevitable and “there was no intentional and willful violation of the law.”

on the House Intelligence Committee, C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland, called the new disclosures “incredibly troubling.” He said he had instructed his staff “to thoroughly review and evaluate these allegations.”

Another Democratic member of the Intelligence Committee, Rep. Mike Thompson of California, said: “Reports that the NSA repeatedly overstepped its legal boundaries, broke privacy regulations and attempted to shield required disclosure of violations are outrageous, inappropriate and must be addressed.”

a recent telephone conference with the judge, according to the order.

The change in the execution process is necessary because supplies of the sedative pentobarbital, the drug Ohio uses for executions, have been put off limits by its manufacturer, and the state’s remaining supplies expire at the end of September.

One option floated by Ohio authorities is obtaining the drug from compounding pharmacies, which are licensed to create small batches of drugs for specific patients.

Ohio also has a backup method involving two drugs injected into muscles. That method has never been used.

In 2009, the state switched to a single dose of sodium thiopental.

In 2011, it switched to pentobarbital when the manufacturer of sodium thiopental also restricted its distribution.

Among other states struggling to find alternatives are Georgia, Missouri and Arkansas. A legal challenge has placed Missouri’s proposal to use propofol on hold.

Arkansas’ governor has held off scheduling executions as the state’s Department of Correction plans to rewrite its lethal injection procedure to include a different drug or drugs and as prisoners continue to challenge the state’s new execution law in court.

In Georgia, after the state’s supply of pentobarbital expired in March, it acquired the drug from a compounding pharmacy, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press in a records request.

Emergency preparedness expo to be offered Aug. 24 Belinda M. Paschal Staff Writer bpaschal@civitasmedia.com

PIQUA — From fires and floods to tornadoes and terrorism, emergency situations are best handled when there’s been some preparation.

To that end, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints Piqua and Sidney wards will co-host an emergency preparedness expo from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Aug. 24. The expo, which is free and open to the public, will be held at the Piqua LDS church at 475 W. Loy Road.

“We believe in being prepared for any eventuality, whether it’s having your finances in order in case you become unemployed or storing food if there’s a big storm coming,” said Louise Reed, a Piqua Ward member who is promoting the event with Lori Puterbaugh of the Sidney Ward.

When preparing for emergency conditions, people should consider such questions as “What if I don’t have clean water?” and “What if I have no electricity or gas for cooking?” They can learn the answers at the expo dur-

ing sessions about water purification and alternative power sources.

The event also will feature presentations on food storage ideas and how to assemble a 72-hour emergency kit.

“An emergency kit should have basic needs, including energy bars, water — about a gallon per person per day — a light source and something to keep the kids occupied,” Reed said.

People should also stock up on staples like sugar, honey, powdered milk, rice, beans, peanut butter, jelly and wheat, be it in flour or readyto-grind form. A tasting table will offer recipes made from easy-to-store products and a demonstration will be given on cooking with wheat.

“Wheat is a good thing to have because you can store it in a dry place and it will last for years,” Reed noted.

Having a just-in-case stash of food and supplies will prevent those mad dashes to the store only to find the shelves depleted.

“Every time we have a big storm, you hear about the stores selling out of different items,” Reed said. “It

would be better if people kept those things on hand rather than rushing out at the last minute.”

In addition to speakers from the American Red Cross of the Northern Miami Valley, members of Shelby County EMS and Fletcher Fire Department will be on hand to discuss emergency situations, safety and readiness.

“We really want to push the importance of emergency preparedness and find out what the county has in line if an emergency comes up,” Reed said.

The expo isn’t just for grownups. There will be face-painting and as inflatables from Jumpy’s Fun Zone to keep youngsters entertained.

Reed reiterated the importance of families having a plan of action in case of emergency, saying, “Make sure everyone in the home knows that plan and can work it. And always have a back-up plan in case something goes wrong with the original plan.”

For more information about the expo, contact Reed at (937) 570-0388 or (937) 4733584 or call Puterbaugh at (937) 663-5083.

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Seattle Times on Obama administration de-escalating ‘war on drugs’: Attorney General Eric Holder’s speech to the American Bar Association in San Francisco was a bit like hearing from a stockbroker after trading has closed.

“Well, of course the market went down.” Well, of course the U.S. needs to rethink drug laws and enforcement.

Decades after America righteously declared a zero-tolerance policy toward all drug crimes and nonviolent crimes involving drugs, Holder and others want to stop the abuses.

Seize the belated insights whenever they come along.

Support for being “Smart on Crime,” in the AG’s words, is aimed at undoing laws that maintain “a vicious cycle of poverty, criminality and incarceration” that “traps too many Americans and weakens too many communities.”

Under the policy proposal, fewer drug offenders would face long sentences, fewer would go to federal prison and judges would have more discretion.

Substantial credit for this change of heart might truly go to the bloated, unsustainable expense of a federal prison system bursting at the seams and concentric circles of prison costs the policies impose on local jurisdictions.

These policies are on a path to end in the same way they began, with broad bipartisan support. Republican President Reagan’s “War on Drugs” took shape in a heated competition with Democratic House Speaker Tip O’Neill, D-Mass. …

Holder’s policy direction has stirred questions about the need to replace U.S. drug czar Gil Kerlikowske, formerly Seattle’s police chief, as he leaves the post for another federal job.

Holder has bipartisan support in Congress for change. Maybe something actually will happen to reform laws that have ruined lives and budgets.

Arizona Republic on Justice Department and airlines: The federal Justice Department tossed a misguided wrench into the merger plans of US Airways (NYSE:LCC) and American Airlines (NYSE:AAR) (NYSE:AMR) , arguing that the public’s interest is illserved by a commercial passenger-airline industry dominated by three or four mega-airlines.

Wrong. The public interest is far more poorly served by financially weak airlines artificially hamstrung by government lawyers who think they understand market forces but clearly do not.

The lawyers concluded that the public is better off with two large and healthy “legacy” airlines in Delta and United; one healthy discount airline in Southwest; one limping, bankrupt legacy airline in American; and one midsize contender in US Airways — as opposed to a market contracted into three large and financially strong legacy carriers (Delta, United and the new, merged American) and discount player Southwest.

Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne joined the Justice lawyers in their suit. Left unchallenged, the merger would reduce competition and raise prices, Horne said.

If this vision constitutes a better market for consumers, it is at best marginally so.

Price and service negatives for consumers can (and often do) result from airline consolidation. …

Since 2008, the airline’s parent company has lost more than $8 billion. American’s enormous debt burden, pension costs and other factors leading to its bankruptcy are not appreciably changed by one or two profitable quarters.

The Justice lawsuit presumes a “government knows better” understanding of the future of the commercial passenger-airline industry. That ignores the rise of aggressive discount carriers such as Allegiant and Spirit airlines, to say nothing of expansion-minded Southwest.

The feds may be waving a “consumer interest” flag, but they are just as capable of acting out of self-interest as the airlines are.

The longer-term consequences appear to include an industry dominated by a pair of stable legacy carriers, as opposed to three, and a handful of also-rans handicapped by a government that presumes to know more about market forces than the market does.

That doesn’t strike us as a deal in the best interest of consumers.

Why won’t Boehner face his constituents?

To the Editor: On Aug. 13, a group of Speaker John Boehner’s constituents gathered at his office in Troy to deliver a “climate change denier award.”

We wanted to highlight that despite the fact that NASA and 97 percent of scientists agree that climate change is real and is already affecting our community, Speaker Boehner still won’t accept these facts. I called the office for an appointment the prior Thursday and was told that “Frank” would return my call, how-

ever nobody called me back. Another member of our group, Organizing for Action, also called the Troy office and was assured that there would be staff there on the 13th.

Twelve of us, representing Warren, Mercer and Miami counties, gathered at the office, but when we approached the door, we found it closed and locked tight. We knocked on the door, as we had been assured over the phone that someone would be there, but got no answer, and when we returned, found that even

Did I somehow fall asleep and wake up in the 1800s?

It’s not really any secret that I’ve got some liberal leniencies when it comes to my belief, moral and life systems.

Now, am I a grass-eating, peace, love and all things flower, hippie? Not quite. There are probably a few areas where the conservatives and I actually agree on things.

But there’s one major, smackin-the-face issue that I’ve been seeing a lot of noise over lately and to me it’s just a no brainer.

Homosexuality.

Seriously, what is there to debate anymore?

Look, I’m not saying I don’t understand the hang-ups certain religions or religious followers might have with it. In regards to the Christian faith, I’m more than versed on what the Bible says about same sex relationships.

In fact, some of you might not know this, but I attended a private Catholic college. One with classes no bigger than 30 students, one with numerous professors who were also nuns, one which required so many theology classes as a prerequisite

the outer door was locked.

I still have the award, and would love to be able to present it to Speaker Boehner or his staff. We believe that acting on climate change is urgent, and that denying the science is dangerous and we think Speaker Boehner needs to hear our concerns.

I also still have this question: Why won’t Speaker Boehner face the facts on climate change and why won’t he face the people that he represents in Congress?

Obama is eager member of golfing presidents’ club VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. (AP) — American presidents love golf — 15 of the last 18 have played — and Barack Obama is an eager member of that club.

He’s played golf on four of six days since arriving on the Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard last Saturday.

The White House never releases his scores and generally does not allow news coverage of his games — although it did allow the press to watch him briefly once this week.

Tiger Woods played with Obama in Florida last February and said at the time that the left-handed president hits the ball well.

“If he ever spent — after these four years — spent more time playing the game of golf, I’m sure he could get to where he’s a pretty good stick,” Woods said. “He’s got an amazing touch. He can certainly chip and putt.”

Obama’s interest in golf dates back to his high school years when he started playing in Hawaii. Later, golf was a pastime during the eight, sometimes frustrating, years he spent as an Illinois senator.

Democrats were the minority party when Obama took his Illinois Senate seat in January 1997. Majority Republicans hardly ever sought them out and paid scant attention to their priorities. So when he had free time, Obama often joined fellow senators and lobbyist friends on golf courses in the state capital of Springfield.

“When you’re in the minority you have a lot of time on your hxands because nobody is seeking you out for advice or votes,” said state Sen. Terry Link, who took his seat the same year as Obama. “So what we did is we decided to start playing golf when the weather broke and we were still down” in Springfield.

They tried to play a couple of times a week, he said.

“We played and worked on his game and eventually he got a little bit better,” Link said. “I guess he plays a lot more than he used to or I think he’d like to play a lot more than he could.”

Phil Manning, a lobbyist Obama played with, said “it was a healthy outlet” for blowing off steam.

Competitive at athletics, Obama paid for private instruction to help his game, Link said.

Obama was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004 and moved to Washington. By 2007, he was a candidate for president, winning the race in 2008 and re-election last year.

Being in the White House seems to have deepened Obama’s love of the game.

He’s has played 137 rounds of golf as president in the past four and a half years, including at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, the Army’s Fort Belvoir in Virginia, during family vacations to Hawaii and Martha’s Vineyard, and elsewhere, according to meticulous records kept by CBS News White House correspondent Mark Knoller.

Many of the presidents who played golf wrestled with the image of themselves playing in front of cameras, according to Don Van Natta’s 2003 book, “First off the Tee: Presidential Hackers, Duffers and Cheaters from Taft to Bush.”

George W. Bush quit playing golf in the fall of 2003, after 2½ years in office, saying it was inappropriate for the commander in chief to be seen playing while Americans were fighting and dying in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Golf suffers from its reputation as a sport for the elite — the same perception the Columbia and Harvard-educated Obama has pushed back against throughout his political career.

It’s partly for these reasons that White House officials, even former members who’ve played with Obama, decline to discuss his golf game.

Obama has said the hours he spends walking from hole to hole or driving the golf cart, as he did this week, are special for someone who is always surrounded by a tight knot of armed security personnel and military aides who drive or fly him practically everywhere he goes.

“It is the only time that, for six hours, first of all, that I’m outside, and second of all, you almost feel normal in the sense that you’re not in the bubble,” he told CBS News shortly after taking office in 2009. “There are a whole bunch of Secret Service guys, but they’re sort of in the woods. And when you’re up there in the tee box and you’re hacking away and hitting some terrible shot and your friends are laughing at you, you know, it feels as though, you know, you’re out of the container.”

CIA acknowledges Area 51 — but not UFOs or aliens

AP Photo A car moves along the Extraterrestrial Highway near Rachel, Nevada, in this Wednesday, April 10, 2002 file photo. The CIA is acknowledging the existence of Area 51 in newly declassified documents. George Washington University’s National Security Archive obtained a CIA history of the U-2 spy plane program through a public records request and released it Thursday.

Clinton and George W. Bush referred to the “location near Groom Lake” in insisting on continued secrecy, and other government references date to the 1960s.

But Richelson, as well as those who are convinced “the truth is out there,” are taking the document as a sign of loosening secrecy about the government’s activi-

ties in the Nevada desert.

The site is known as Area 51 among UFO aficionados because that was the base’s designation on old Nevada test site maps. The CIA history reveals that officials renamed it “Paradise Ranch” to try to lure skilled workers, who can still be seen over Las Vegas flying to and from the site on unmarked planes.

Beginning with the U-2 in the 1950s, the base has been the testing ground for a host of topsecret aircraft, including the SR-71 Blackbird, F-117A stealth fighter and B-2 stealth bomber.

Some believe the base’s Strangelovian hangars also contain alien vehicles, evidence from the “Roswell incident” — the alleged 1947 crash of a UFO in New Mexico

— and extraterrestrial corpses.

The CIA history mentions an “unexpected side effect” of the highflying planes: “a tremendous increase in reports of unidentified flying objects.” The report notes that the U-2 and Oxcart planes, which flew higher than civilians believed possible, accounted for half of UFO sightings during the 1950s and ’60s.

A likely story, said Stanton Friedman, a self-described Ufologist from Canada.

“The notion that the U-2 explains most sightings at that time is utter rot and baloney,” he said. “Can the U-2 sit still in the sky? Make right-angle turns in the middle of the sky? Take off from nothing? The U-2 can’t do any of those things.”

but locates the Air Force base on a map, along the dry Groom Lake bed.

It also talks about some cool planes, though none of them are saucershaped.

George Washington University’s National Security Archive used a public records request to obtain the CIA history of one of Area 51’s most secret Cold War projects, the U-2 spy plane program.

National Security Archive senior fellow Jeffrey Richelson first reviewed the history in 2002, but all mentions of the country’s most mysterious military base had been redacted. So he requested the history again in 2005, hoping for more information. Sure enough, he received a version a few weeks ago with the mentions of Area 51 restored.

The report is unlikely to stop the conspiracy theorists. The 407-page document still contains many redactions, and who’s to say those missing sections don’t involve little green men?

It’s not the first time the government has acknowledged the existence of the super-secret, 8,000-square-mile installation. Presidents Bill

LAS VEGAS (AP) — UFO buffs and believers in alien encounters are celebrating the CIA’s clearest acknowledgement yet of the existence of Area 51, the top-secret Cold War test site that has been the subject of elaborate conspiracy theories for decades.

The recently declassified documents have set the tinfoil-hat crowd abuzz, though there’s no mention in the papers of UFO crashes, blackeyed extraterrestrials or staged moon landings.

Audrey Hewins, an Oxford, Maine, woman who runs a support group for people like her who believe they have been contacted by extraterrestrials, said she suspects the CIA is moving closer to disclosing there are space aliens on Earth.

“I’m thinking that they’re probably testing the waters now to see how mad people get about the big lie and cover-up,” she said.

For a long time, U.S. government officials hesitated to acknowledge even the existence of Area 51.

The CIA history released Thursday not only refers to Area 51 by name and describes some of the aviation activities that took place there,

Ind. church on fishing lake reels in worshippers GREENFIELD, Ind. (AP) — The pastor of a central Indiana church hopes having Sunday services on a fishing lake will reel in worshippers who might not attend a more traditional gathering.

Holding summer services at a well-stocked 10-acre fishing lake is putting new congregants at ease and making them more receptive to sermons and Gospel readings, said the Rev. Wade Compton, senior pastor at Bradley United Methodist Church in Greenfield.

The sanctuary is a pole barn that used to be a bait shop, and those attending services get two hours of free catchand-release fishing afterward.

“We’ll have people showing up that will not be coming to the fishing church in their Sunday

go-to-meeting clothes,” Compton said. “They’ll be showing up in — who knows — maybe their waders, hats with fishing hooks in them. And they’ll be at ease, and that’s exactly where we want them to be. And they’ll enjoy the music, the fellowship.”

Several dozen people sat outdoors on lawn chairs and listened to The Farm Hands Bluegrass Quartet perform gospel music during a recent Sunday service.

Teenager Tyler Swain of Greenfield caught some fish from the shore after the service.

“I think it’s great to bring in people that have never really come to church, who enjoy fishing and maybe give God’s word to them and great worship services,” Swain said. “I think that’ll draw a lot of people.”

Compton is hop-

ing fishing enthusiasts attracted to the outdoor services will come after the season ends to the congregation’s traditional limestone church in the city about 20 miles east of Indianapolis.

He said he had first thought of using the lake for youth ministry programs before deciding on holding full services there.

“Instead of walking into a room with stained glass windows in it, with people dressed up very well, you’ll be stepping into God’s great outdoors, and you’ll come into a pole barn that’s been redesigned as a sanctuary with a fisherman’s theme to it,” Compton said. “And it will be very laid back, and very casual and informal and yet we will focus in on the good news of Christ and the gospel.”

ABOVE, members of the The Farm Hands Bluegrass Quartet perform gospel music during a derive of the ‘fishing church” in the former bait shop at a well-stocked 10-acre fishing lake in Greenfield, Ind., Aug. 4. The derive is an outreach program of the Bradley United Methodist Church in Greenfield. Attendees get two hours of free catch and release fishing following the service.

JONESBORO, Ark. (AP) — Masonry crews tearing out and replacing the steps at First United Methodist Church in Jonesboro have found the cornerstone from the old First Methodist Episcopal Church South that apparently includes a time capsule.

The year “1898” is carved into the limestone and the workers then noticed on top of the stone the words “open here.”

Senior Pastor John Miles told KAIT (http:// bit.ly/14Nrq1N ) that the top has a plug dating to the late 1920s and it became clear that it is also a time capsule.

Miles says no current members of the church were aware of the time capsule and that it will be opened during Sunday’s services.

California teen welcomed home after kidnapping LAKESIDE, Calif. (AP) — A 16-yearold girl got a warm welcome home reception five days after FBI agents killed a longtime family friend suspected of torturing and killing her mother and brother and escaping with her to the Idaho wilderness.

Hannah Anderson was mobbed by reporters as she entered and left a restaurant that hosted an all-day fundraiser. News crews were told to wait outside while Hannah and her father stayed for hours. She did not make a statement.

“I don’t know what I want to say. I just want to give her a hug,” said Alyssa Haugum, a classmate of Hannah’s in Lakeside, an east San Diego suburb of 54,000 people.

Brett Anderson said his daughter was taking things one day at a time. He said he spoke with the horseback riders who saw the pair in the Idaho wilderness and alerted authorities, thanking them for saving Hannah’s life.

“Right now, she’s with her family and, of course, with some friends, and she’s just happy to be here,” he told reporters outside the restaurant Thursday.

Firefighters found the body of Christina Anderson, 44, near a crowbar and what appeared to be blood next to her head. James Lee DiMaggio is believed to have shot and killed their family dog, found under a sleeping bag in the garage with blood close to its head.

before she was picked up from cheerleading practice Aug. 4, hours before firefighters found DiMaggio’s burning garage in Boulevard, a rural town 65 miles east of San Diego. They do not indicate the time, duration or nature of the calls.

Jan Caldwell, a San Diego County sheriff’s spokeswoman, said they may have been discussing pickup times.

San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore has been adamant that Hannah was an unwilling victim from start to finish. “I can’t make it any clearer,” he said at a news conference Monday.

DiMaggio was extraordinarily close to both children, driving Hannah to gymnastics meets and Ethan to football practice. The warrants say the former telecommunications technician took Hannah on multi-day trips, most recently to Malibu and Hollywood.

Asked on her ask.fm social media account this week if she would have preferred DiMaggio got a lifetime prison sentence instead of being killed, she said, “He deserved what he got.”

The account was disabled but there were postings on an Instagram account linked to Hannah’s now-disabled ask. fm page.

“Dad is not taking this very well,” she wrote late Wednesday. “None of us are but please watch over him. I’m all he’s got left. Even though your gone we are still a team. Love and miss you. “

AP Photo In this Thursday photo, Hannah Anderson arrives at the Boll Weevil restaurant for a fundraiser in her honor to raise money for her family, in Lakeside, Calif. Five days earlier, FBI agents killed longtime family friend James DiMaggio who’s suspected of torturing and killing Anderson’s mother and brother and escaping with her to the Idaho wilderness. Investigators who searched DiMaggio’s home found letters from Hannah, an incendiary device, a handcuff box and “arson wire,” according to one warrant, which does not elaborate on the content of letters or nature of the devices.

Investigators found 8-year-old Ethan’s body as they sifted through rubble.

DiMaggio “tortured and killed” the mother and son, San Diego County Sheriff’s Detective Darren Perata wrote, offering no elaboration, in the warrants released Wednesday.

DiMaggio’s home found letters from Hannah, an incendiary device, a handcuff box and “arson wire,” according to one warrant, which does not elaborate on the content of letters or nature of the devices.

The warrants say DiMaggio and Hannah exchanged about 13 phone calls

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Sunday, Aug. 18, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be aware that private details about your personal life might be made public today, especially to bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs. Need to do some damage control?

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You hunger for change. Well, why not?

Shake it up a little. Go someplace you've never been before. (But be patient with others in order to avoid dust-ups today.)

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You're focused on finances today; however, this afternoon is a poor time to spend money. Disputes about possessions, cash flow and who owns what might arise. Stay chill.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Today the Moon is opposite your sign, which means you have to cooperate with others. Be tolerant and prepare to compromise. This is no biggie.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) No matter what happens today, you're keen to stay on top of things. Don't be a perfectionist about this, because this afternoon, life will be loosey-goosey. Be gracious if this happens.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a playful, fun-loving day! Nevertheless, be patient with romantic partners or children today because you might be at odds with someone. Keep smiling.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You'll enjoy a chance to cocoon at home today. Nevertheless, brief arguments with female family members might arise. If you're diplomatic, this won't be a problem.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You're intense about communicating with others today. You have something you want to say. Be aware that your plans might take a detour that requires patience and flexibility.

SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your focus is on finances today. Avoid disputes with someone about loans, inheritances and shared property. Postpone important decisions until tomorrow.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You're in the driver's seat today because the Moon is in your sign. However, it also opposes Mars, which might trigger heated discussions with others.

Keep your head down and your powder dry.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You prefer a mellow day today. You need privacy and a chance to work alone or behind the scenes. Don't get caught up in other people's dramas.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Enjoy meeting with others, especially in group situations. Avoid intense competition with someone, because it's not going to go anywhere. Step back, and be generous and understanding about it.

YOU BORN TODAY You value the knowledge gained through experience.

You work hard to manifest your personal vision of life. Although you can appear socially flamboyant at times, you are serious and philosophical. You function well as a leader and see challenges as an opportunity for success.

This year a major change might take place, perhaps as significant as whatever occurred around 2004.

TODAY IN HISTORY

Today

(AP) — Today is Saturday, Aug. 17, the 229th day of 2013.

There are 136 days left in the year.

On this date: In 1807, Robert Fulton's North River Steamboat began heading up the Hudson River on its successful round trip between New York and Albany.

In 1863, Federal batteries and ships began bombarding Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor during the Civil War, but the Confederates managed to hold on despite several days of pounding.

In 1915, a mob in Cobb County, Ga., lynched Jewish businessman Leo Frank, whose death sentence for the murder of 13year-old Mary Phagan had been commuted to life imprisonment.

(Frank, who'd maintained his innocence, was pardoned by the state of Georgia in 1986.)

In 1942, during World War II, U.S. 8th Air Force bombers attacked German forces in Rouen, France. U.S. Marines raided a Japanese seaplane base on Makin Island.

In 1962, East German border guards shot and killed 18-year-old Peter Fechter, who had attempted to cross the Berlin Wall into the western sector.

In 1969, Hurricane Camille slammed into the Mississippi coast as a Category 5 storm that was blamed for 256 U.S. deaths, three in Cuba.

In 1978, the first successful trans-Atlantic balloon flight ended as Maxie Anderson, Ben Abruzzo and Larry Newman landed their Double Eagle II outside Paris.

In 1983, lyricist Ira Gershwin died in Beverly Hills, Calif., at age 86.

In 1985, more than 1,400 meatpackers walked off the job at the Geo. A. Hormel and Co.'s main plant in Austin, Minn., in a bitter strike that lasted just over a year.

In 1987, Rudolf Hess, the last member of Adolf Hitler's inner circle, died at Spandau Prison at age 93, an apparent suicide.

In 1988, Pakistani President Mohammad Zia ul-Haq and U.S. Ambassador Arnold Raphel (RAY'-fehl) were killed in a mysterious plane crash.

New school year awaits kids who survived twister

MOORE, Okla. (AP) — One young girl is so afraid of the wind that she carries headphones to block out the sound. Other kids are traumatized by the memory of their narrow escape from the storm and the friends who died just a few feet away from them.

Nearly three months after a twister blasted through Moore and destroyed two elementary schools, students are preparing to go back to class. Although many families are ready to return to a familiar routine, parents and teachers say the town’s children have fears that are still fresh and a lot more healing to do.

Both schools — Plaza Towers Elementary and Briarwood Elementary — have been razed to concrete slabs, as have most of the surrounding homes.

Students will attend class in temporary buildings starting Friday.

District officials hope the new school year marks a fresh start in the lives of children who survived the May 20 tornado, which killed 24 people and wrecked scores of homes and businesses along a 17-mile path through the heart of this Oklahoma City suburb.

“I’m not going to act as though those first couple of weeks (after the storm) weren’t so terribly difficult, because they were,” said Superintendent Robert Romines, a longtime Moore resident who took the district’s top post over the summer. “But since that day, we have turned

a lot of corners. After our last funeral, we turned a corner.”

Parents of some of the children who attended Plaza Towers, where seven third-graders were crushed by a collapsing wall, say their kids frighten easily, especially during severe weather, and are often haunted by thoughts of their friends who died.

“There was screaming and crying,” recalled 9-year-old Ruby Macias, who was trapped under the same wall.

Now Ruby gets scared whenever the weather turns bad and remains troubled by the death of her close friend, Sydney Angle, who was also 9.

“She says she dreams about her friend,” said Ruby’s mother, Veronica Macias. “I don’t know what to tell her.”

Another Plaza Towers student trapped beneath the wall, 10-year-old Xavier Delgado, said he doesn’t like to think or talk about the day of the tornado, but he’s not afraid to go back to class.

“I’m not nervous. I’m kind of excited about seeing my friends,” said Xavier, who acknowledged that heavy weather still disturbs him. “I only get scared when there’s loud thunder.”

Xavier’s 8-year-old sister, Haley, a second-grader at Plaza Towers, often carries a pair of headphones to block out the sound of the wind, which reminds her of the day the twister reduced her school to pile of rubble.

Egypt clashes leave at least 60 dead nationwide CAIRO (AP) — Heavy gunfire rang out Friday throughout Cairo as tens of thousands of Muslim Brotherhood supporters clashed with armed vigilantes in the fiercest street battles to engulf the capital since the country’s Arab Spring uprising. At least 60 people were killed in the fighting nationwide, including eight police officers.

Carrying pistols and assault rifles, residents battled with protesters taking part in what the Brotherhood called the “Day of Rage,” ignited by anger at security forces for clearing two sit-in demonstrations Wednesday in clashes that killed more than 600 people.

As military helicopters circled overhead, residents furious with the Brotherhood protesters pelted them with rocks and glass bottles. The two sides also fired on one another, sparking running street battles.

The Muslim Brotherhood, meanwhile, called on supporters of the country’s ousted Islamist president to stage protests on a daily basis, raising fears of continued violence.

Unlike in past clashes between protesters and police, Friday’s clashes took an even darker turn when residents and

Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi before clashes broke out with Egyptian security forces in Ramses Square, downtown Cairo, Egypt, Friday.

Tens of people were killed in the fighting nationwide, including police officers.

possibly police in civilian clothing engaged in the violence. There were few police in uniform to be seen as residents fired at one another on a bridge that crosses over Cairo’s Zamalek district, an upscale island neighborhood where many foreigners and ambassadors reside.

The Brotherhood-led marches in Cairo headed toward Ramses Square, near the country’s main train station. The area is also near Tahrir Square,

Beirut bomb ups fear of fallout from Syria war BEIRUT (AP) — Hezbollah’s leader blamed Sunni extremists Friday for a car bombing that killed 22 people in a Shiite neighborhood south of Beirut, heightening fears that Lebanon will be dragged further into sectarian fallout from the war in neighboring Syria.

In a defiant speech to his supporters, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said he was prepared to double the number of his fighters in Syria if Thursday’s bombing turned out to be retaliation for Hezbollah’s intervention against Syrian rebels.

“If you think that by killing our women and children … and destroying our neighborhoods, villages and cities we will retreat or back away from our position, you are wrong,” he said.

Nasrallah said preliminary investigations showed Takfiri groups — a term for Sunni radicals — were likely behind the bombing in a predominantly Shiite suburb of Beirut, as well as other recent attacks.

“If the battle with these terrorist Takfiris requires for me personally and all of Hezbollah to go to Syria, we will go to Syria,” he said.

Nasrallah, who has rarely appeared in public

since Hezbollah and Israel waged war in 2006, spoke from a secret location to mark the anniversary of that conflict. His remarks were carried by satellite to TV stations and to a crowd of thousands gathered in a south Lebanese village.

Hours earlier Hezbollah supporters fired shots in the air at emotional funerals held for victims of the deadliest blast in Hezbollah’s south Beirut stronghold since 1985.

Some 300 people were wounded.

As forensic experts collected evidence at the scene of the explosion, and security officials said they were investigating the possibility that the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber.

More than a dozen charred cars were scattered on the street amid heavily damaged buildings, preventing residents and shop owners from entering.

It was the second bombing in the area in five weeks. On July 9, a car bomb wounded more than 50 people. Since then, Hezbollah has tightened security with checkpoints and parking limitations.

Hezbollah’s strongholds have also been rocketed several times in the past few months.

where the army put up barbed wire and tanks as a buffer between the protesters and a small antiBrotherhood encampment in the square.

At least 12 people were killed in Ramses Square after protesters clashed with residents in the area, security officials said.

Associated Press photographers saw many of the dead inside the nearby Al-Fath mosque, which had turned into a field hospital. Some appeared to have been shot in the

head and chest during an attack on a police station.

The upper floors of a commercial building towering over Ramses Square caught fire later in the day, with flames engulfing it for hours.

It was not immediately clear what caused the fire at the building housing the Arab Contractors’ construction company, but no injuries were reported.

Across the country, at least 52 civilians were killed in the clashes,

along with eight police officers, security officials said. They spoke on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.

The violence erupted shortly after midday weekly prayers when tens of thousands of Brotherhood supporters answered the group’s call to protest across Egypt in defiance of a military-imposed state of emergency following the bloodshed earlier this week.

Armed civilians manned impromptu checkpoints throughout the capital, banning Brotherhood marches from approaching and frisking anyone wanting to pass through. At one checkpoint, residents barred ambulances and cars carrying wounded from the Ramses Square clashes from reaching a hospital.

The scenes highlighted how deep divisions in Egypt have become.

At least eight police stations were attacked Friday, officials said.

Egypt’s police force was rocked by the country’s 2011 uprising that ousted longtime leader Hosni Mubarak from power and has not fully recovered since.

On Thursday, the Interior Ministry said it had authorized the use of deadly force against any-

one targeting police and state institutions. But the threat appeared not to intimidate protesters.

Tawfik Dessouki, a Brotherhood supporter, said he was ready to fight for “democracy” and against the military’s ouster of Morsi.

“I am here for the blood of the people who died. We didn’t have a revolution to go back to a police and military state again and to be killed by the state,” he said.

Also Friday, security officials said assailants detonated explosives on train tracks between Alexandria and the western Mediterranean Sea province of Marsa Matrouh. There were no injuries and no trains were damaged from the attack, officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with regulations.

Egypt, the Arab world’s most populous nation, has been in turmoil since Morsi was removed from power by the military on July 3, following days of mass protests against him and his Brotherhood group. But Morsi’s supporters have remained defiant, demanding the coup be overturned. The international community has urged both sides in Egypt to show restraint and end the turmoil engulfing the nation.

Somalia polio outbreak spreads; 105 recorded cases NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Somalia is suffering an “explosive” outbreak of polio and now has more cases than the rest of the world combined, an official said Friday.

Vaccine-wielding health workers face a daunting challenge: accessing areas of Somalia controlled by al-Qaida-linked militants, where 7 of 10 children aren’t fully immunized.

Polio is mostly considered eliminated globally except mainly in three countries where it is considered endemic: Afghanistan, Nigeria and Pakistan. India marked a major success in February 2012 by being removed from the World Health Organization’s list of countries plagued by the disease.

Somalia now has 105 cases, figures released Friday show, and another 10 cases have been confirmed across the border in a Kenyan refugee camp filled with Somalis.

Globally there have been 181 cases of polio this year, including those in Somalia and Kenya.

Vaccination campaigns in Somalia have reached 4 million people since the outbreak began in May, but those health officials have limited access to about 600,000 children who live in areas of Somalia controlled by the armed Islamist group alShabab.

“It’s very worrying because it’s an explosive outbreak and of course polio is a disease that is slated for eradication,” said Oliver Rosenbauer, a spokesman for the Global Polio Eradication Initiative at the World Health Organization in Geneva. “In fact we’re seeing more cases in this area this year than in the three endemic countries worldwide.”

In a bit of good news, Rosenbauer said in a phone interview with The Associated Press that polio numbers are down in the three remaining endemic countries.

“The only way to get rid of this risk is to eradicate in the endemic countries, and there the news is actually paradoxically very good,” he said.

Somalia was removed from the list of endemic polio countries in 2001, and this year’s outbreak is the second since then.

It began one month after Bill Gates helped unveil a six-year plan to eradicate polio at the Global Vaccine Summit.

That effort will cost $5.5 billion, three-quarters of which has already been pledged, including $1.8 billion from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

The outbreak in Somalia does not set back the six-year plan, said Rosenbauer, because unpredictable and intermittent outbreaks were programmed into the timeline.

In al-Shabab controlled south-central Somalia, disease surveillance is functioning, but health officials are likely not able to detect all polio cases.

Mohamud Yasin, a retired doctor who has treated polio throughout his career, said: “It’s indeed worrying because this comes at a time when the country is still hugely affected by the raging fighting, which prevents volunteers from accessing people in need of vaccines.

It may take time before we can confidently say we have universal coverage of the immunization.”

In a sign of how difficult it is for medical providers to operate in Somalia, the aid group Doctors Without Borders announced this week it was pulling out of the country after 22 years because of attacks on its staff members.

Banged up Browns Mingo remains hospitalized after preseason game CLEVELAND (AP) — The speedy linebacker is still in the hospital. The change-of-pace running back needs surgery on his broken leg. The starting right guard will miss part of the regular season.

Following an impressive win, the Browns were hurting.

Browns rookie outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo remained at The Cleveland Clinic on Friday, a day after suffering a bruised lung in the first half of an exhibition win

against Detroit.

Mingo, the No. 6 overall pick in this year’s draft, will spend a second night in the hospital, where he was taken before the end of the Browns’ 24-6 victory over the Lions. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said the team doesn’t know how Mingo sustained the injury.

“We looked at the tape,” Chudzinski said Friday. “There wasn’t a big hit that you could see. Obviously he had a number of plays with some contact, but it was hard to determine which hit it was.”

Also, Chudzinski said running back Dion Lewis will need surgery to repair his broken leg. It’s possible the versatile Lewis could be • See BROWNS on page 17

Something to look forward to

Smiles all around as Buckeyes prepare for 2013

COLUMBUS (AP) — Braxton Miller smiles when the prospect of a bowl trip comes up in the conversation.

There was no midwinter journey to a sunnier, warmer spot for the Ohio State quarterback and his teammates a year ago, the result of NCAA sanctions stemming from the tattoo scandal that rocked the program two years ago.

But now the Buckeyes are back in play, both in their conference and in the national picture.

“We’ve got something to look forward to,” Miller said with a grin.

There are a lot of smiles around the Buckeyes’ training camp these days. Smiles for the extra incentive of a major bowl trip and a shot at a national championship, not to mention just playing in the Big Ten’s title game.

Coming off a 12-0 season in Urban Meyer’s first as coach, the Buckeyes have 14 starters back including nine on an explosive offense headed by Miller.

The defense has fresh faces, but no one questions the talent level.

Here are five things to look for with the Buckeyes in 2013: 1. Cut the distractions: Two of the Buckeyes’ top

players had legal problems this summer. Leadingscorer Carlos Hyde, also the team’s No. 2 rusher, has been suspended for the first three games after he was listed as a person of interest in an alleged assault of a woman at a Columbus bar.

No charges were brought, but Hyde may be in Meyer’s doghouse for a while; he’s been suspended for the first three games. Star cornerback Bradley Roby was charged with misdemeanor assault after an incident with a bar bouncer in

Cleveland Browns linebacker Barkevious Mingo (51) runs down on kick coverage against Detroit Lions linebacker Travis Lewis in the first quarter of a preseason NFL football game Thursday in Cleveland. Mingo later left the game with a rib injury.

Bloomington, Ind. His case is still in the court system and he has been dropped to the second team and may face additional legal and team punishment. Meyer is not pleased. “In November we’re going to find out.

‘How’s your season going, coach?’ Well, if our leadership is good, and we (know the) direction, I think we’ll be all right. You have distractions, we’ll be an average team,” he said.

Logano sets record in qualifying at Michigan BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — On another record-setting day at Michigan International Speedway, Joey Logano raced to one of the fastest qualifying speeds in NASCAR history.

Logano won the pole at 203.949 mph Friday in his No. 22 Ford, breaking the track record set

by Marcos Ambrose last year.

Ambrose’s mark of 203.241 came on the first Sprint Cup weekend on a newly paved surface at MIS. His record lasted 14 months.

Logano’s speed was the ninthhighest by a NASCAR pole winner — and the fastest since Bill Elliott set the record of 212.809 at Talladega on April 30, 1987.

“I don’t know how fast it is, but it feels freaking fast,” Logano said.

Kurt Busch qualified second, and points leader Jimmie Johnson was third.

Logano is 16th in the Cup standings, and this is his first pole of the year. He could use a good showing this weekend as he tries to make a final push to reach the Chase for the Sprint Cup. Logano is 27 points behind 10th-place Martin Truex Jr., and he hasn’t won a race this season.

But a victory at Michigan could change everything, vaulting him closer to Chase position on points and boosting his chances at a wild card.

There are four races left before the Chase.

“We’re 27 points out. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but the amount of cars that are in between us is a lot,” Logano said. “We’re one bad race from saying, ‘We’re out.’ So we’ve got to make the most out of these four.”

It’s the sixth career pole for the 23-year-old Logano. He’s coming off three consecutive top-10 finishes, although he hasn’t won in over a year. Logano finished ninth at Michigan in June.

Busch is in 11th place in the standings, so his solid starting position comes at a good time for him. Busch started second in this year’s earlier race at MIS, but he finished 35th.

Pistorius to be indicted, trial in early 2014 JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Oscar Pistorius will be indicted for premeditated murder on Monday and the double-amputee Olympian will go on trial in early 2014, about a year after shooting dead girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

In a somber twist, the world-famous athlete will be served with the murder indictment on the day Steenkamp would have celebrated her 30th birthday.

Pistorius will be formally charged for the Valentine’s Day slaying of the woman he says he loved dearly and killed by mistake, and will face a life sentence with a minimum of 25 years in prison if convicted of premeditated murder. Other charges could be added to the indict-

ment. Prosecutors declined to comment on South African media reports on Friday that charges of recklessly discharging a firearm in public in two separate incidents would also be laid against the runner.

If the extra charges — reportedly relating to Pistorius shooting a gun out a moving car and firing one accidentally at a restaurant — are added, they may show the prosecution’s aim to paint him as trigger- Pistorius happy at his blockbuster trial next year.

The 26-year-old Pistorius denies he committed murder and says he shot Steenkamp through a locked toilet cubicle door in his bathroom

in the early hours of Feb. 14 thinking she was a dangerous nighttime intruder.

Prosecutors say he intended to kill her. A six-month police investigation ended this week, during which investigators reportedly focused on cellphones found at Pistorius’ upscale home as well as the toilet door through which he shot.

The investigation team “is convinced that the accused has a charge to answer to,” the national police commissioner’s office said.

Detectives, forensic experts, ballistics experts, forensic psychologists and technology experts had all worked the case, police said, gathering

the evidence for trial and which could send Pistorius to prison until he is older than 50, at least.

National Prosecuting Authority spokesman Medupe Simasiku told The Associated Press that the exact date for the trial in early 2014 had not yet been set and would likely be decided on Monday, Pistorius’ next scheduled appearance at Pretoria Magistrate’s Court.

The trial will be at the capital city’s High Court and be before a judge. South Africa has no trial by jury.

The indictment papers will be served and the prosecution will retain a main charge of premeditated murder, Simasiku said, while only conceding that other charges are “possible.”

Can someone, anyone, please take down the SEC? Paul Newberry AP National Writer

ATLANTA (AP) — Can somebody — anybody! — please stand up to that bully down South.

The college football season hasn’t even started yet, but we already feel like we know the outcome.

The SEC is up here.

Everyone else is down here.

Frankly, it’s getting a little boring.

Sport requires drama, suspense, some degree of uncertainty to truly capture our attention.

In this sport, though, we’ve got the closest thing to a sure bet. Come January, we all know there’s likely to be another Southeastern Conference team standing in the middle of that confetti at the Rose Bowl, collecting the league’s eighth straight national title.

Once again, the SEC has an embarrassment of riches: the best offensive player (Texas A&M quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel), the best defensive player (South Carolina end Jadeveon Clowney), the best coach (Alabama’s Nick Saban), and — oh, yeah — the best team (Saban’s mighty Crimson

Tide, winner of three crowns in the last four years and heavily favored to claim another).

Yawn.

For the good of college football, somebody needs to end this reign of terror.

Sure, dynasties are a whole lot of fun for those on the right side of history, but they’re not the best way to keep the rest of us engaged. It is surely no coincidence that average attendance this past season was down 1.3 percent from 2005, the last time a team not from the SEC finished No. 1, and a more troubling 3.3 percent from its record high in 2008.

In fact, last year’s turnout of 45,440 per game was the lowest for the NCAA’s top division since 2001. Even the folks in SEC country seem to have become a bit bored with all this winning, judging by a slight drop in average attendance each of the last two seasons and a more glaring number of no-shows at some big-time stadiums.

For now, look for more of the same.

The SEC could have as many as five teams (Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas A&M and Florida) in the top 10 when the first Associated Press poll of the season comes out on Saturday.

LSU is right in the mix, too.

There are those who choose to bury their head in the sand when it comes to the SEC. A few weeks ago, Nebraska coach Bo Pelini took offense at anyone suggesting the SEC was head and shoulders above every other conference. Alabama, for sure, but not the entire conference.

“I guarantee there are a lot of teams in the SEC that aren’t Alabama that wish they were Nebraska, that wish they were Michigan, wish they were Ohio State,” Pelini said, “so don’t talk to me about the SEC.” That sort of denial isn’t going to get it done.

Not when anyone can match up to the SEC in two crucial areas: quarterback and defense.

It starts with Manziel, the game’s most dynamic player, assuming he isn’t sidelined by an investigation into whether he got paid for doling out his autograph (the guess here is that Johnny Football beats the rap).

Alabama is led by AJ McCarron, who has done nothing but win championships since taking over as the Tide’s QB. Georgia has Aaron Murray, a fifth-year senior who surprisingly passed on a chance to enter the NFL draft after guiding the Bulldogs to the cusp of the national title game last season.

Clowney would surely be in the pros by now if he wasn’t required to spend one more year in college. If anyone needs a refresher on just how good this guy is, check in with former Michigan running back Vincent Smith, assuming he’s finally coherent after taking the season’s most vicious hit in the Outback Bowl, one which sent both the ball and his helmet flying.

In a sense, Clowney is the exaggerated prototype for the kind of player that makes SEC defenses stand apart from everyone else. In this league, it seems, everyone is just a few pounds bigger, a little bit stronger, a step quicker. Manti Te’o might’ve been a stud at Notre Dame, but his performance in the national title game — most of it spent on his back as Alabama romped to a 42-14 victory — showed he would’ve been just another player in the SEC. If there was any hope the Crimson Tide might back off the throttle just a bit, Saban shot that down just minutes after his team had finished its destruction of the Fighting Irish. He said the celebration would last all of 24 hours, then he’d be back in the office getting ready to win another champion-

ship.

“Even though I really appreciate what this team accomplished and am very, very proud of what they accomplished, we need to prepare for the challenges of the new season very quickly with the team we have coming back,” he said.

Saban sounded totally devoid of joy, just a man on an insatiable quest to knock down anyone in his path. He is the perfect symbol for the SEC, which saps a little more joy from this game with each passing season, a league on cruise control while everyone else is struggling mightily just to get off the ground.

Please don’t put us through that again.

Can you help us out, Ohio State? The Buckeyes at least have a coach, Urban Meyer, who knew how to win in the SEC and clearly doesn’t mind cutting a few corners.

What about you, Louisville?

The Cardinals certainly have a championship-caliber quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater, and put quite a whippin’ on Florida in the Sugar Bowl.

Oregon?

Stanford?

Somebody?

At this point, we’ll take anybody.

Djokovic’s bid for ATP history ends in Cincy

It’ll be tight fit as Nationwide cars hit Mid-Ohio

MASON (AP) — Novak Djokovic dumped another pressure-packed shot into the net and stood in place for a moment, stunned by another upset in Cincinnati.

It’s the only place where he can’t win.

Top-ranked American John Isner ended Djokovic’s attempt to make ATP history Friday, beating the No. 1 player 7-6 (5), 3-6, 7-5 in the quarterfinals at the Western & Southern Open.

Djokovic has never won in Cincinnati, the only Masters event that has eluded him during his career.

He has lost in the finals four times, including last year to Roger Federer. All he needs to do is hoist the winner’s trophy one time in Cincinnati to become the first player to win all nine Masters events.

Wait until next year.

Again.

“It’s disappointing that I played this way,” Djokovic said. “For me, it’s very disappointing.”

Isner reached the semifinals in Cincinnati for the first time, knocking off a

LEXINGTON (AP) — NASCAR Nationwide Series races can be treacherous, with large, fast cars competing for tight space in the corners.

Now imagine putting 40 of those four-wheeled missiles on a twisty road course with 13 turns over 2.25 miles of a narrow ribbon of pavement.

No wonder almost everyone is expecting lots of rumpled fenders and crumpled trackside fences when the series races for the first time at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in the inaugural Nationwide Children’s Hospital 200 on Saturday.

“There’s certainly the potential for a full-contact race,” Regan Smith, third in the driver points standings, said with laugh. “There’s a lot of areas on the race track where it’s probably not a passing zone, but you can claim that you had your nose in on the guy.

It just depends on how guys want to race on

No. 1 for only the second time in his career. His other No. 1 upset? He beat Djokovic at Indians Wells in the semifinals last year.

“A fantastic win for me,” Isner said. “Certainly one of my greatest memories as a tennis player.”

He’ll play seventh-seeded Juan Martin del Potro, who advanced Friday by beating qualifier Dmitry Tursunov 6-4, 3-6, 6-1. Del Potro is in the semifinals for the second straight year.

Soon after Djokovic got knocked out, No. 2 Andy Murray was gone, too. He failed to convert a break point while losing 6-3, 6-4 to Tomas Berdych, who also beat him in the quarterfinals at Madrid.

They were relegated to the adjoining grandstand court. Both players struggled with the loud music, announcements and cheering from center court.

“I think this was my best moment of the game to handle this because I was AP PHOTO struggling with the noise John Isner clinches his fist after upsetting top seeded Novak around the court and the Djokovic 7-6 (5), 3-6, 7-5, in a quarterfinal match at the Western distraction,” Berdych said. & Southern Open tennis tournament Friday in Mason.

Saturday — if they want to dive-bomb and be dirty, then you’re going to wreck the car in front of you.”

All of the top drivers — Austin Dillon, Sam Hornish Jr., Smith, Elliott Sadler and Brian Vickers make up the top five in the standings — anticipate a wild day of racing in the 90-lap, 203-mile event contested over the rolling hills midway between Cleveland and Columbus.

During practice sessions on Thursday and Friday, several cars and drivers got a close-up look at the gravel areas off the track in the corners.

When the actual racing begins — qualifying is Saturday morning, with the race set for mid-afternoon — who knows what might happen?

Mid-Ohio is a challenge for those negotiating its turns during the annual IndyCar race at the track. And those cars are lighter and quicker.

Browns

n Continued from page 16 placed on injured reserve and lost for the season.

Chudzinski said the 6-foot, 240-pound Mingo was having trouble breathing before he left the field and was eventually transported by ambulance to the hospital. Chudzinski said doctors are being cautious with the 22-year-old former LSU star.

“Anytime that there’s that kind of injury they just want to make sure everything is OK in terms of his health and breathing and everything else,” Chudzinski said.

Mingo was on kickoff coverage and the punt return team and he took a few snaps at outside linebacker in the first half before he left the field and went

to the locker room, escorted by a team trainer.

Chudzinski said it’s too early to determine how long Mingo could be sidelined. The firstround pick had a strong debut last week against St. Louis and Mingo had an impressive training camp.

Mingo has been working with the second-team defense, but the Browns expect to him to get significant playing time this season as part of their deep rotation of outside pass rushers.

He was one of five Browns players injured in Cleveland’s second straight win.

Lewis broke his left fibula when he was tackled after catching a pass in the third quar-

ter. Lewis, acquired in a trade from Philadelphia in March, has shown flashes of being a perfect complimentary back behind Trent Richardson, who made his exhibition debut against the Lions and rushed for 33 yards in two series.

“He one of the guys that had had an opportunity to show what he could do, really catching our eye,” Chudzinski said.

It’s been a tough week for Cleveland’s running backs.

On Monday, Montario Hardesty dislocated his right thumb and then underwent arthroscopic knee surgery on Thursday. Brandon Jackson will likely move up the depth chart into Lewis’ spot until the

Browns decide their next move.

Also, starting right guard Jason Pinkston sustained a high ankle sprain when teammate John Greco rolled over him on Cleveland’s second offensive series. Pinkston, who missed most of last season after developing blood clots in his lungs, will likely miss “the early part of the regular season,” Chudzinski said.

Browns tight end Gary Barnidge sprained his shoulder and rookie kicker Brandon Bogotay, who is competing with veteran Shayne Graham, sprained his groin.

With Lewis and Pinkston expected to miss significant time, Chudzinski said it’s pos-

sible the Browns will sign a running back and guard.

“We will see. I’m not expecting right now to bring anyone in,” Chudzinski said. “We will just have to see where we are at with some of these other guys injury-wise and how soon we are expecting them back. We’ll sit down and talk a little bit more about that. Yes, those are possibilities.”

Pinkston was filling in for Shawn Lauvao, who underwent surgery on his ankle last week and will also miss some regular season games. Rookie guard Garrett Gilkey was pressed into action against Detroit’s strong defensive line and more than held his own.

Buckeyes

n Continued from page 16 four of five starters, so that’s a huge strength. All four starters on the defensive line are gone, however. Adolphus Washington, Joel Hale, Michael Bennett and Noah Spencer are the new starters.

They were all big-time recruits and there is talented depth behind them.

“I don’t feel like we’re going to have a drop-off in play or talent,” D-line coach Mike Vrabel said.

3. Mr. Playmaker: Meyer said repeatedly a year ago that he didn’t have a game-breaking player who could turn a short run or pass into a long touchdown.

After an injury-riddled year, Jordan Hall will fill the role Meyer created for Percy Harvin in his time at Florida.

There appear to be more candidates this year, with even a freshman — jet-quick

Dontre Wilson — in the discussion.

“We’re a faster team,” Meyer said.

4. Miller’s tale: The Buckeyes’ junior signal-caller had a breakthrough season a year ago, rushing for 1,271 yards and passing for 2,039 more for a combined 28 touchdowns. His improvement was the No. 1 reason why Ohio State was able to bounce back from a 6-7 mark the year before. Miller is on everybody’s watch list for the Heisman Trophy.

“Last year I felt like I was a D-plus,” he said. “It’s unbelievable how far I came from last year.”

5. Urban Renewal II: The Buckeyes seem positioned for a big season. The nonconference schedule isn’t exactly a minefield (Buffalo, San Diego State, California and Florida A&M) and three

of the first four Big Ten games are at home (Wisconsin, Iowa, Penn State).

Yet only two games in October and one in November are at Ohio Stadium. The biggest test, as is almost annually the case, will come in the regular seasonending showdown at rival Michigan.

Rod Smith, one of the guys who will get carries while Hyde watches from the sidelines, has a good feeling about what’s about to happen: “We were good last year. We went 12-0. But that was last year. This year we have some young guys who can really keep the momentum going. I’m pretty sure we’re even going to be 10 times better than last year.”

Predicted finish in conference: 1st in Big Ten’s Leaders Division.

Vikings roll past SCC, 5-1

RB Adams runs for 2 TDs Staff Report Even after a 5-1 victory over Springfield Central Catholic Friday night, Miami East football coach Max Current saw room for improvement.

“We’ve still got some things to shore up,” Current said. “We had a lot of missed assignments, a lot of assignment breakdowns.

“We can’t have that against a good team.”

Be that as it may, the Viking’ offense ran wild.

CASSTOWN Robbie Adams broke off TD runs of 27 and 65 yards. Kurt Brower added a 45-yard TD run and Colton McKinney added a 70-yard run to the end zone.

And Miami East was good through the air, as well.

Quarterbacks Conner Hellyer and Braxton Donaldson completed all but one pass attempt on the night. Hellyer hooked up with Alex Brewer — who finished with three catches — on a 4-yard TD pass.

The Vikings return to action Friday against Northwestern.

A-Rod camp leaked docs implicating Braun NEW YORK (AP) — Members of Alex Rodriguez's inner circle obtained and leaked documents that implicated Ryan Braun and other players in using performance-enhancing drugs, "60 Minutes" reported Friday.

Citing unidentified sources, the CBS news show said the leak occurred in February, days after the Miami New Times published documents implicating the Yankees star in the Biogenesis investigation.

In the Miami New Times documents, the names of Braun and one of Rodriguez's teammates, catcher Francisco Cervelli, are redacted. "60 Minutes" reports that members of Rodriguez's camp obtained unredacted versions and leaked them to Yahoo! Sports.

Rodriguez's lawyer, David Cornwell, denied the allegations to"60 Minutes."

"The allegations are untrue and are another attempt to harm Alex — this time by driving a wedge between Alex and other players in the game," he said in a statement to the show. "While Alex focuses on baseball and repeatedly states that he is going to respect the appeal process, the drumbeat of false allegations continues."

Speaking before Friday night's game against the Boston Red Sox, Rodriguez claimed the story had been reported four months ago and was not a surprise.

Rodriguez has been suspended for 211 games through the 2014 season.

He is allowed to play until a decision is issued by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz, which is not expected until at least November.

"Let's make one thing clear: the next seven weeks there's going to be a very, very bumpy road every day and expect a story like this if not longer," Rodriguez said.

"We're going to have to deal with it. When we have the right timing, and the time is appropriate, which is not now, I will tell my story."
