Troy teachers, support staff getting raises By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer

Quiet, not stormy, weather for U.S. this year WASHINGTON (AP) — After a couple years of wild, deadly and costly weather, the United States is mostly getting a lucky break this year. So far. Summer is almost over, and as of Tuesday morning, not a single hurricane had formed this year. See Page 10

myingst@civitasmedia.com TROY — The Troy City School board of education approved a 1 percent increase in base pay for all teachers and support staff on Monday. Both unions waived their rights to bargain over this issue, according to the resolution. The increase in pay status begins on Sept. 30 based on regular compensation for the 20132014 school year. This increase does not include supplemental contracts, extended time, overtime or step pay. Troy City S chools Superintendent Eric Herman said the increase in pay was to express the district’s appreciation for the staff’s hard work and exceptional state test scores. The district’s teacher’s and support staff’s unions agreed to a four-year wage and step freeze which is currently in its third year, Herman said. President Doug Trostle

said the pay increase was to “acknowledge in some small way” the board of education’s appreciation of the district’s continued growth and performance. Herman said the increase was a “fitting thing to do” to acknowledge all the scarifies made over the last several years. Board member Joyce Reives asked if the increase had been communicated to all the district’s employees, which Herman said it has through its union representatives and building principals. The increase in pay does not include administration such as building principals and other administrative staff. The board also reviewed the district’s 2013-2014 appropriations by treasurer Jeff Price. Price reviewed the district’s state, federal and local revenue projections for the board based on historic trends and the Miami County auditor’s information. The district expects approximately $57,942,051 in revenue

for the 2013-2014 year. The revenue is projected to be decreased from 2012-2013’s revenues of $56,926,024. Price said many costly expenditures will be part of this year’s district budget including several future bus purchases and the district’s employee severance payout of approximately $600,000 in the upcoming 20132014 school year. Also employee benefits such as health care costs have also increase claims as well, Price said. Price did note that the district received a state casino payment of $114,000 on Aug. 30. The district received its first casino revenue payment of $96,000 previously in January. Director of Curriculum & Instruction Michael Moore reported the district’s waiver day on Aug. 30 was a success. Moore said the district met as whole at the Concord Room to discuss the upcoming Ohio Teacher Evaluation System as well as state-wide curriculum overhaul. Moore said the day

included sharing what all the forms, including student learning objectives and the time lines, and how each must be used during the school year for the district. Moore said the overall message was to provide a “sense of ease and calm” through the school year despite the lack of “clarity at the state level.” Board member Bill Lutz said he had heard many positive comments about the waiver day from staff and asked if the district plans on continuing to host a similar district-wide collaboration in the future. Moore said the waiver day was successful to gathering the district as a whole and having a “constant voice” to convey one consistent message. Moore said the district will have another waiver day in February as a midschool year check point about the OTES and other public education changes. For more information, visit www.troy.k12.oh.us.

Firefighters train with grain rescue tubes By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer

myingst@civitasme dia.com CASSTOWN — It’s a vital piece of rescue equipment, which both local fire departments

and the community hope never gets used. Miami East High School sophomore Nathan Teeters is a junior member of the Fletcher Volunteer Fire Department and saw

a need to help protect the members of his local agriculture-based community. Teeters applied and recently was awarded multiple grants to provide three grain rescue

tubes to the Fletcher Fire Department, Casstown Fire Department and Elizabeth Township Fire Department through his Miami East FFA Supervised

n Continued from page 1 Experience (SAE). “It has been a problem in the community,� Teeters said Sunday. “I recognized that this is an increasing problem and that no local fire department had any of these rescue tubes.� Both city of Troy and Piqua’s fire departments have grain rescue tube equipment, as well as the Christiansburg Local Fire Department, yet, Teeters’ SAE research said no other local volunteer fire departments had the equipment. “I’m really glad this worked out,� Teeters said of the grant awards and the large turnout at the training session held at Miami East High School on Sunday. “I’m glad that all the fire departments Nathan Teeters were able to come out and be able to see and know what to do if something like this ever happens — which I hope it never does.� As part of the donation of the three grain tubes, which cost $1,025 each, Teeters also coordinated a live simulation of a grain rescue operation with local fire departments and rescue officials. Teeters coordinated the grain rescue training session which included classroom and video sessions, as well, as a live, active rescue in a large semi grain truck at the end of the day. “I invited all the local departments and sent out letters,� Teeters said. Teeters said he was impressed with the training session and the sophisticated process it takes to use the rescue devices. “I had no idea there was such a meticulous process to rescue someone,� Teeters said. “It was completely the opposite way I had previously thought on how it was done. Even when it’s not a rescue, and just a recovery, there’s a lot of preliminary procedures that has to be done beforehand.� Vince Ashcraft, an assistant chief of the Piqua Fire Department and Clark State Community College Fire Science instructor, taught the more than 25 local fire department officials and members of the Miami County Sheriff ’s Office during Sunday’s training on how to safely remove grain, such as corn from a trapped victim. “I hope its one thing they’ll never have to use,�

Firefighters Chris Steggemann, left, and Rick Knife of the Casstown Fire Department, use hand scoops to remove corn from around a simulated trapped victim. Piqua Fire Department assistant chief and Clark State University instructor Vince Ashcraft explains the procedure to firefighters from three departments and representatives from the Miami County Sheriff’s Office, as part of the training program to familiarize responders in proper use of the new devices.

said Miami East High School FFA adviser Marie Carity as she watched with her FFA students and members of the local community witness the intensive grain rescue training at Miami East High School. “Also, it’s one thing to have one, but another to know how to use one.� The rescue grain tubes help isolate the grain to be able to remove the victim from the entrapment

whether it’s in a grain bin or silo or a grain truck. “Grain acts like a fluid,� Ashcraft said. Ashcraft said the grain entrapment rescue process must be thorough so rescuers do not become victims themselves, which happens in 60 percent of such cases. “Victims are not crushed by the grain, it’s by (suffocation) because they are trying to take deeper, harder breaths,�

he said. On May 30, a 68-yearold Clark County farmer died as the grain shifted in a grain bin on a farm as he tried to install a piece of equipment in the bin and was not wearing a safety harness. According to the Columbus Dispatch, a 2011 report issued by Purdue University showed that grain-bin entrapments and deaths were on the rise. The

report said that in 2010, 51 grain entrapments were reported nationally, with 26 fatalities. The Ohio State University compiled statistics that show that 14 people were killed as a result of grain handling or storage in Ohio between 2001 and 2010. Teeters received major grants from Farm Credit Service of Mid-America of Versailles and the Ohio Department of

Agriculture’s rural development division. Other funding for the rescue grain tubes included donations from local community members, Miami East FFA alumni, Albert Gross of Heritage Cooperative and the Miami County Farm Bureau.

ers along the way, and will see what he hopes will be an eventual extension as far west as Greenville and east to Urbana. “I’m not going to hang up my spurs, even though I am 81 years old,� said Shook who has become the go-to expert on trail concept and implementation for surrounding communities. “I’m young

in spirit and young mind, and I’m going to keep on working.� A round of applause ensued as Shook asked for the bridge to not only represent Robert J. Shook but, “Let it represent a friendship bridge, between all the residents of Miami County, the nation and the world. Let them come and enjoy the beautiful, Great Miami

River trail through Miami County.� Construction on the Robert J. Shook Bikeway Bridge is due to begin after being placed on hold for a little over a year and if the group of bicycling enthusiasts in attendance for the groundbreaking are of any indication, the completion date of July 31, 2014, won’t come soon

enough. “We’re just here to be here because we love biking,� said John Villers of Piqua, speaking on behalf of the other bicyclists in attendance, each dressed for the occasion in biking gear complete with safety helmets. For Villers, he has taken the recreational trail as far south as Cincinnati and east into Columbus,

and as a member of the Dayton Cycling Club and a 5K runner, has met many individuals along the way, including bikers from Michigan. “They were on vacation,� said Villers emphasizing the growing popularity and draw of the trail. “They had seen information on the trail and came here just to ride the trail.�

does not have a felony record. “The genesis of all of this was his addiction to drugs,� the public defender said. But Lindeman pointed to Brumbaugh’s extensive misdemeanor history before ordering the four-year pris-

on sentence. Brumbaugh had several misdemeanor theft cases related to a number of stores in Troy, including Walmart, Meijer, CVS and GameStop, according to Lindeman. “It’s like you are a one-

man plague on local businesses,� the judge said. Emily Sluk, assistant prosecutor, who sought a prison term, said “what happened that night could have been much worse than it was.� Quontes J. Atkins, 20, the accomplice, was convicted of robbery in July and was sentenced to two years behind bars last month. Authorities say the two

men robbed the restaurant and Brumbaugh was the one with the gun. The men fled the scene of the crime but were arrested a short time later. Once he is released from prison Brumbaugh will serve a mandatory term of three years on post-release control. He was given credit for 104 days spent at the Miami County Jail.

Cedar Point named top park

Along with Cedar Point being named the best amusement park, Millennium Force was named the best steel roller coaster.

SANDUSKY — The results are in and for the 16th consecutive year, Cedar Point amusement park/resort in Sandusky has been voted the “Best Amusement Park in the World!” The popular vacation destination won this coveted award at the annual Golden Ticket Awards ceremony in Santa Cruz, Calif. Cedar Point has earned the top honor every year since the inception of the Golden Ticket Awards in 1998. In addition to the Best Park award, Cedar Point’s Millennium Force roller coaster was named the “Best Steel Roller Coaster in the World” for the third year in a row. In fact, Millennium Force has been ranked as one of the top two steel roller coasters in the world every year since its debut more than 13 years ago. “We are truly honored to have been named the best park in the world for the past 16 years and to have the top steel roller coaster for the third year in a row,”said John Hildebrandt, vice president and general manager of Cedar Point. “This award is a testament to our entire staff here at Cedar Point that strives to provide each guest with their ‘best day’ experience during every visit.” Hosted by Amusement Today, the annual Golden Ticket Awards are the industry’s equivalent of the Oscars, where amusement park owners and managers, ride manufacturers and industry officials gather to salute the industry’s best. Winners were selected by votes from amusement park enthusiasts from around the world. Several of Cedar Point’s roller coasters placed in the Top 25 in the “Best Steel Roller Coaster in the World” category. In addition to Millennium Force at No. 1, Cedar Point’s legendary Magnum XL-200 came in at No. 9, the towering Top Thrill

Dragster was voted No. 12, the terrain-hugging Maverick took the No. 22 spot. Blue Streak roller coaster, which will celebrate its 50th anniversary next year, was voted No. 27 in the “Best Wooden Roller Coaster in the World” category. In addition to those awards, GateKeeper was voted one of the top three “Best New Rides” in the world while Cedar Point was ranked as one of the top five parks in the world for “Best Kids’ Area” and “Best Halloween Event.” Cedar Point recently announced several plans for the 2014 season, including two new family rides, changes to the park’s Camp Snoopy area and more details on a two-year renovation project to Hotel Breakers. The park kicks off its 17th annual HalloWeekends event in September on Friday the 13th and will be open Friday nights, Saturdays and Sundays through Oct. 27.

AREA BRIEFS Residents encouraged to get library card WEST MILTON — September is Library Card Sign-up Month at the Milton-Union Public Library and other libraries across the nation.

The card can be a portal to enriching lives and broadening minds and experiences. Books, magazines, music, puzzles and movies are available for free in many formats at the library. Online databases, purchased by the state of Ohio and local library are offered on library websites to help you learn new languages, access and print out legal forms, read and cite journals for term papers, and fix your car, weed-eater or lawn mower. To encourage those without cards, the Milton-Union Public Library is offering special incentives to sign-up during September. Adults registering for a card will receive a library staff-designed bookmark and enter a drawing for a prize at month’s end. Teens signing up for a card will also receive a bookmark and a chance to win a prize Oct. 1. All teenagers, new or familiar to the library, are invited to design a library card, engage in a library scavenger hunt

and find and check out books with colored tickets for additional drawings and small prizes. Children registering for new cards will have a facsimile card posted in the Children’s Section of the library and will receive a bookmark and small prize. MiltonUnion students should check at school as some classes are participating in encouraging library sign ups by offering academic incentives.

Question: Do you think the United States should take military action in Syria?

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP

Courier-Journal, Louisville, Ky., on war talk demands citizens’ attention: President Barack Obama … presumably will make his best case for limited missile strikes on Syria directly to the American people, who remain deeply skeptical if not dead-set against the U.S. making such a move. His proxies — Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel — have been making the case publicly in sessions with congressional committee members. The conversation about American intervention in response to claims Syrian government forces used nerve gas, killing about 1,400 people and injuring thousands more, will broaden in the coming days as U.S. representatives and senators return to the Capitol after a recess, and take up the debate in earnest. It is a debate worth having. And the American people should be fully involved in it, if they are not already. The setting for such a possibility for the opening of minds is ghastly: a civil war in Syria that already has claimed the lives of more than 100,000 people, a recent attack the U.S. asserts was chemical weapons unleashed on Syrian people by government forces, the terrible images of the dead and wounded who suffered greatly, this year’s model of the ageold argument of whether to mind our own business or to mind theirs. Impassioned arguments are being made on all sides in this country and others. Good. That’s supposed to be the way it works in a democracy. And so is the act of the elected leader of the country addressing citizens about the ultimate flex of power: the use of military might. Americans are understandably trying to shake off a sense of deja vu with Syria. Fourteen years ago, another American president was justifying the decision to militarily intervene in Kosovo in the 1990s, to save the lives of people undergoing untold atrocities and to stabilize a region. To make that argument, he reached back more than 50 years to yet another president, one four years into a world war and only a few months away from his own death, who spoke these words to a nation weary of war and death and saving the world from its darker forces. Another president is set to speak to today’s war-weary citizens about other dark forces he says must be countered. That is his duty. It is our duty, as citizens, to listen, and to speak, as well.

The Post and Courier, Charleston, S.C., on the

invisible department: Introducing the State Department’s budget request earlier this year, Secretary of State John Kerry quoted Vice President Joe Biden as saying, “Don’t tell me what you value — show me your budget, and I’ll tell you what you value.” The disclosure last week of details of the government’s “black budget” plan for the current year — essentially the budget for the government’s “hidden department” known as the intelligence community — reveals something about President Barack Obama’s values. Intelligence spending has risen under President Obama, most notably for the Central Intelligence Agency. Although the government is cutting spending for almost all socalled discretionary programs subject to across-the-board cuts ordered by Congress and is reducing the size and budget of the Defense Department in particular, the intelligence community appears to be exempt. It appears that the government is spending about 11 percent more for the intelligence community than it did in 2008, the year before Obama took office. The $52.6 billion total is down by about $2 billion from its 2011 peak, but it still ranks the hidden department as the fifth or sixth largest U.S. government agency, below the Defense Department, Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs, and Education, and about on a par with State and Homeland Security. With more than 107,000 employees, the hidden department ranks as the seventh largest federal agency in terms of personnel, behind Defense, Veterans Affairs, Homeland Security, Justice, Treasury and Agriculture. It is way ahead of the State Department. State is scarcely larger than the CIA, which is the largest of the 16 separate intelligence agencies that make up the hidden department. Included is the National Security Agency. According to “black budget” data published by The Washington Post, the CIA budget has grown rapidly and its workforce has increased from 17,000 to 21,575 over the past decade. One sign of Obama’s increased emphasis on covert action has been a dramatic rise in lethal CIA drone strikes on suspected terrorists. The Post’s careful coverage of secret “black budget” documents provided by fugitive intelligence analyst Edward Snowden provides a rare look into a dark corner of government operations. The hidden department is the repository of many surprising national secrets, as Mr. Snowden’s revelations have shown. The Post articles provide evidence that the department may also conceal bureaucratic bloat that Congress should curb.

Kerry proves to be unbelievably small and incredibly unpersuasive Now that John Kerry is the secretary of state, his gaffes can launch major diplomatic initiatives. A reporter in London asked what Syrian President Bashar al-Assad could do to avoid war. Kerry responded: “He could turn over every single bit of his chemical weapons to the international community in the next week — turn it over, all of it without delay and allow the full and total accounting. But he isn’t about to do it, and it can’t be done.” The State Department quickly noted that the secretary was merely making a rhetorical point. But the Russians immediately embraced the Kerry flourish as a serious proposal. It was “welcomed” by Damascus and spoken of warmly by the U.N. secretary-general and the British and French governments. In her highly anticipated remarks on the Syria crisis, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said action on the Kerry gaffe-turned-plan would be an “important step.” In his briefing, White House press secretary Jay Carney triumphantly noted that there wouldn’t have been so much diplomatic progress

9/11 ceremony will be a quiet ‘last’ for mayor NEW YORK (AP) — When this year’s Sept. 11 anniversary ceremony unfolds at ground zero, the mayor who has helped orchestrate the observances from their start will be watching for his last time in office. And saying nothing. Over his years as mayor and chairman of the National Sept. 11 Memorial & Museum, Michael Bloomberg has sometimes tangled with victims’ relatives, religious leaders and other elected officials over an event steeped in symbolism and emotion. But his administration has largely succeeded at its goal of keeping the commemoration centered on the attacks’ victims and their families and relatively free of political image-making. In that spirit, no politicians — including the mayor — were allowed to speak last year or will be this year. Memorial organizers expect to take primary responsibility for the ceremony next year and say they plan to continue concentrating the event on victims’ loved ones, even as the forthcoming museum creates a new, broader framework for remembering 9/11. “As things evolve in the

future, the focus on the remembrance is going to stay sacrosanct,” memorial President Joe Daniels says. At Wednesday’s ceremony on the 2-year-old memorial plaza, relatives will again read the names of the nearly 3,000 people who died when hijacked jets crashed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and near Shanksville, Pa. Readers also will recite the 1993 trade center bombing victims’ names. At the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, where Wednesday’s ceremony will include bell-ringing and wreath-laying, officials gathered Tuesday to mark the start of construction on a visitor center. The Pentagon plans a Wednesday morning ceremony for victims’ relatives and survivors of the attacks, with wreathlaying and remarks from Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and other officials, and an afternoon observance for Pentagon workers. Deciding how to mark the anniversary of the worst terror strike in U.S. history was a sensitive task for Bloomberg and other leaders in the months after the attacks, perhaps especially for the

then-new mayor. Officials were planning a memorial service for thousands of families from 90 countries, while also setting a tone for how the public would commemorate 9/11. “That was the challenge that we faced, and it was an enormous one,” recalls Jonathan Greenspun, who then was part of Bloomberg’s community affairs unit and now is a political consultant. “There was a recognition, by the mayor, that the ceremony had to transcend typical memorial services and the politics that are sometimes associated with them.” Officials fielded about 4,500 suggestions — including a Broadway parade honoring rescue workers and a one-minute blackout of all Manhattan — before crafting a plan c entered on reading names at ground zero. “Our intent is to have a day of observances that are simple and powerful,” Bloomberg said as he and then-Gov. George Pataki announced the plans in 2002. For years, the ceremonies did include politicians reading names and texts, and Bloomberg made remarks that over the years touched on Hurricane Katrina, the 2005 London subway

bombings and the Biblical King David’s grief at the death of his son Absolom, among other topics. Bloomberg’s role hasn’t always been comfortable, especially for a mayor whose brisk, pragmatic personality and early criticisms of the memorial struck some victims’ relatives as insensitive. When the ceremony was shifted to nearby Zuccotti Park in 2007 because of rebuilding at the trade center site, some victims’ relatives threatened to boycott the occasion. The lead-up to the 10th anniversary brought pres-

sure to invite more political figures and to include clergy in the ceremony. And when Bloomberg mentioned the idea of ending the name-reading the next year, some of the relatives were aghast. By next year’s anniversary, Bloomberg will be out of office, and the museum is expected to be open beneath the memorial plaza. While the memorial honors those killed, the museum is intended to present a broader picture of 9/11, including the experiences of survivors and first responders. But the organizers expect

they “will always keep the focus on the families on the anniversary,” Daniels said. “We see ourselves as carrying on a legacy.” That focus was clear as relatives gathered last September on the treeladen plaza, with a smaller crowd than in some prior years. After the throng and fervor that attended the 10th anniversary, “there was something very, very different about it,” says Charles Wolf, whose wife, Katherine, was killed in the trade center’s north tower. “It felt almost cemetery-ish, but not really. It felt natural.”

Poll: Public doubts rise on surveillance, privacy WASHINGTON (AP) — Following disclosures about the National Security Agency’s massive surveillance programs, a majority of Americans believe the U.S. government is doing a poor job of protecting privacy rights, according to a new poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. Close to 60 percent of Americans oppose the NSA’s collection of data on telephone and Internet usage. A similar majority opposes the legal process supervised by a secret federal court that oversees the government’s classified surveillance. The American public is still anxious about terrorism as the 12th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks approaches. About 6 in 10 Americans feel it is sometimes necessary to sacrifice rights to confront terrorism. But suspicions about the government’s prom-

ises to protect civil liberties have deepened since 2011. Only 53 percent now say the government does a good job of ensuring freedoms, compared to 60 percent two years ago. The shift in public attitudes follows a threemonth barrage of leaks to media organizations by Edward Snowden, the former NSA contractor who released secret documents about the surveillance agency’s inner workings. In follow-up interviews after the poll, some respondents described Snowden as a criminal and an attention-seeker. Others called him a whistleblower. But many agree that his disclosures have highlighted the once-remote issue of government surveillance. “It’s not surprising this was going on, but I think all these revelations brought it home to people,” said Sam Thomas, a former musician from Knoxville, Tenn. “This is

the eroding of American rights as we used to know it.” Not until Snowden’s leaks was the massive NSA trawling — of domestic telephone numbers, and their calling patterns, and the agency’s collection of Americans’ Internet user names, IP addresses and other metadata swept up in surveillance of foreign terror suspects — confirmed and detailed. The new poll sought to measure the public’s views on the revealed NSA activities, and it also tracked Americans’ shifting opinions over time. President Barack Obama has sought to reassure Americans that the government’s data collection does not extend to the contents of their phone calls and text messages. “Nobody is listening to your phone calls,” he said after the first wave of disclosures in June. He added: “They are not looking at people’s names, and they’re not looking at content.”

But a majority of Americans appear doubtful. Some 56 percent oppose the NSA’s collection of telephone records for future investigations even though they do not include actual conversations. And 54 percent oppose the government’s collection and retention of Internet metadata for future investigations that avoids actual email contents; only 34 percent favor such efforts. Even stronger majorities oppose unauthorized government surveillance of phone calls and Internet mail traffic within the U.S. As many as 71 percent do not want officials eavesdropping on U.S. phone calls without court warrants; 62 percent oppose collection of the contents of Americans’ emails without warrants. Donald Sigley, who works in freight logistics in St. Petersburg, Fla., said he is skeptical but is willing to cut the government some slack as long as they show good faith in

ensuring the surveillance programs do not veer out of control. “This is sensitive information and it could come back and bite somebody down the road,” Sigley said. He is fine with the government’s intrusion into some forms of personal data, but says he would feel safer with strong oversight and the strict use of court warrants. “I do worry about what they’ll do with it in the future.” Even before Snowden’s revelations, many Americans put a premium on privacy and civil liberties. The 2011 AP-NORC Center poll showed just 40 percent felt that the government did a good job in protecting their privacy. That dropped to 34 percent in this year’s survey. Americans are divided on whether the government ought to prove its intelligence operations abide by civil rights protections. Fifty-one percent of people polled said

it is more important to keep the details of those programs secret, but 43 percent preferred to have proof that civil rights have not been violated. Civil liberties advocates say they have seen a sharp rise in public interest in their causes in recent months after years of lukewarm support. “For the first time, the public is able to see what’s going on behind closed doors and it’s changing minds,” said Trevor Timm, a staffer with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which has sued the government to obtain secret documents on surveillance. Obama administration officials have openly acknowledged public discontent. During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Monday on oversight of the NSA’s surveillance programs, NSA General Counsel Robert S. Litt said the agency would consider changes that “provide greater public confidence.”

Thousands to volunteer to honor Sept. 11 victims NEW YORK (AP) — Thousands of volunteers will honor Sept. 11 victims on Wednesday with good deeds performed around the globe. The anniversary of the terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people 12 years ago was designated a National Day of Service and Remembrance in 2009. This year, a constellation of volunteer networks around the world will spread goodwill through volunteerism to honor those who died.

Public volunteer projects throughout the week in New York, Dallas, Washington, D.C., and other cities will convene at firehouses and fire academies to show gratitude for first responders by painting and cleaning the facilities. In Boston, the Massachusetts Military Heroes Fund is organizing a care package drive for active duty military service members and homeless veterans. In Seattle, the

nonprofit group Habitat for Humanity is organizing special interfaith building ceremony. It’s impossible to say just how many people will participate but thousands have pledged to perform a good deed on Sept. 11 on the website 911day.org. “We get about 50,000 posts each year from people saying what good deeds they’re going to do for 9/11,” said David Paine, who helped found the day of service in 2002 with his

friend Jay Winuk, whose brother was killed at the World Trade Center. “This week alone, we had 19,000 posted on our website.” People have promised to give blood, donate books, pass out blankets at homeless shelters and volunteer at soup kitchens, among other things. One man is flying from Los Angeles to Boston handing out Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) gift cards to the flight crew, Paine said.

Securing Syria’s arsenal is rife with challenges BEIRUT (AP) — Russia’s proposal to place Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile under international control for dismantling would involve a lengthy and complicated operation made more difficult by a deep lack of trust — not to mention the lack of an inventory. Syria is believed by experts to have 1,000 tons of chemical warfare agents scattered over several dozen sites across the country, and just getting them transferred while fighting rages presents a logistical and security nightmare. Very few details are known so far about the plan announced Monday by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, part of a flurry of diplomatic activity aimed at averting U.S.-led military strikes in retaliation for a deadly Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack near Damascus. Syria swiftly accepted, and the initiative was endorsed in quick succession by Britain, France and the U.S. as an idea worth exploring. Russia, Syria’s most powerful ally, says it is now working with Damascus to come up with a detailed plan of action. But the process is rife with challenges, taking place to the backdrop of

a raging civil war and an opaque regime that until now has never formally confirmed that it has chemical weapons. Lack of trust between the regime’s chief supporters and opponents in the international community is likely to complicate the operation. “This situation falls outside anything that we’ve known so far,” said Jean Pascal Zanders, an independent chemical weapons consultant and disarmament expert. President Bashar Assad’s regime is said to have one of the world’s largest stockpiles of chemical weapons, including mustard gas and the nerve gas sarin. There have been longstanding concerns that the embattled leader might unleash them on a larger scale, transfer some of them to the militant Lebanese Hezbollah group, or that the chemical agents could fall into the hands of alQaida militants among the rebels. Many are skeptical that the Syrian regime would follow through on its commitments. The government has typically accepted last-minute deals with the international community to buy time, then argued over the details or fell back on its promises. Most recently,

Russia’s proposal to place Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile under international control for dismantling would involve a lengthy and complicated operation made more difficult by a deep lack of trust. Syria is believed by experts to have 1,000 tons of chemical warfare agents scattered over several dozen sites across the country, and just getting them transferred while fighting rages presents a logistical and security nightmare.

Syria called for an immediate U.N. investigation into an alleged chemical attack near Aleppo in March. Negotiations then dragged on until August before a deal was struck. “The devil is in the details,” said Ralf Trapp, a disarmament consultant who worked for the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons from 1997 to

2006. “Neither side (of the Syria conflict) has a reputation for sticking to deals for long periods of time.” The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, known by its acronym OPCW, will likely work, along with the U.N., on a framework for implementing the deal. The OPCW is the

implementing authority for the Chemical Weapons Convention, which bans the development, production, stockpiling and use of chemical weapons. The convention requires all parties to the treaty to declare and to destroy whatever chemical weapons they may possess under the international verification of the OPCW. Syria is not a signa-

tory, meaning the process would have to start from scratch. Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem said Tuesday that his government will declare its chemical weapons arsenal and sign the convention. The long road toward securing Syria’s chemical weapons arsenal would begin with the Syrian government’s preparing a detailed, comprehensive declaration of what it possesses, including details on production methodology and precursors for chemical agents. The OPCW and the U.N. would also have to create a legal structure to prepare and then implement the dismantling program, according to experts. Even then, Zanders said, “any failure on (the part of) the Syrian government would immediately destroy the confidence of the international community and probably split it again in the type of discussion which we have seen recently.” Following that, inspectors, most likely from the OPCW, would go to the country for verification, but only after getting assurances from both the government and the rebels that engineers and technicians can operate safely. “It would be an enor-

Obama blends threat of attack, hope of diplomacy lawmakers moved quickly to rewrite pending legislation along the same lines. Obama himself “wasn’t overly optimistic about” prospects for a solution at the U.N., said Sen. Richard Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Democrat, after his party’s rank and file met privately for lunch in the Capitol with the president. He quoted Obama as saying that even if a credible plan could be worked out, it could be difficult to push through the U.N. Security Council. And, indeed, Russian President Vladimir Putin said such a U.N. effort could work only if “the American side and those who support the USA in this sense reject the use of force.” The president readied his speech against an unpredictable chain of events stemming from a chemical weapons attack in the Damascus suburbs on Aug. 21 that the Obama administration swiftly blamed on Assad’s government. U.S. officials say more than 1,400 died in the episode, including at least 400 children, and other victims suffered uncontrollable twitching, foaming at the mouth and other symptoms typical of exposure to chemical weapons

banned by international treaty. Other casualty estimates are lower, and Assad has said the attack was launched by rebels who have been fighting to drive him from power in a civil war that has so far claimed the lives of more than 100,000 civilians. Assad’s patron, Russia, has blocked U.S. attempts to rally the Security Council behind a military strike. But Monday, after a remark by Kerry, it spoke favorably about requiring Syria to surrender control of its chemical weapons, and the Syrian foreign minister did likewise. The foreign minister, Walid al-Moallem, said Tuesday that his government was ready to turn over its chemical weapons stockpile in line with Russia’s proposal in order “to thwart U.S. aggression.” He also said Syria was prepared to sign an international chemical convention it has long rejected — a step it can take on its own at any time without U.S. or U.N. supervision. Syria has long refused to provide an accounting of the size of its stockpile, rarely referring in public to its existence. According to an unclassified estimate by the French government, it includes more than 1,000

U.S. distances, then embraces Russia idea on Syria WASHINGTON (AP) — Twenty-four hours after distancing itself from a Russian proposal to secure Syria’s chemical weapons, the State Department moved Tuesday to claim co-ownership of the idea, which the U.S. says President Barack Obama and the Russian president first discussed last year. Russia’s unexpected announcement came Monday after Secretary of State John Kerry said that Syrian President Bashar Assad could avert a U.S. strike on his country by turning “over every single bit of his chemical weapons to the international community in the next week.” The State Department initially downplayed Kerry’s remarks, which came at a news conference in London, dismissing them as a rhetorical flourish. But as support for the Russian idea snowballed, administration officials 40471812 retooled their message.

By Tuesday, Kerry seemed to say it wasn’t a verbal misstep at all. He told a House panel: “Yesterday, we challenged the regime to turn them over to the secure control of the international community so that they could be destroyed.” The mixed messages set off a daylong flurry of confusion and, as it turns out, Obama and Russian President Vladmir Putin first discussed the idea last year at an economic meeting in Mexico for world leaders.

President Barack Obama, accompanied by Senate Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper Terrance Gainer, right, leaves a meeting with congressional Republicans on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, where they discussed Syria. On Tuesday night, the president addressed the nation on Syria.

tons of “chemical agents and precursor chemicals,” including sulfur mustard, VX and sarin gas. Obama has said frequently he has the authority as commander in chief to order a military strike against Assad regardless of any vote in Congress, and he has consistently declined to say whether he would do so if lawmakers refuse to approve the legislation he is seeking. The response in Congress to support such a strike has been lukewarm at best — as underscored during the day when liberal Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., and conservative Rep. Mick Mulvaney, R-S.C., both announced their opposition. Markey, who was elected to the seat that Kerry

vacated when he joined the Cabinet, said the legislation under consideration was too broad, “the effects of a strike are too unpredictable, and … I believe we must give diplomatic measures that could avoid military action a chance to work.” Said Mulvaney: “While I am concerned about taking no action, it strikes me that international

law cannot be upheld via unilateral attack by the United States.” Yet Maryland Rep. Steny Hoyer, the secondranking Democrat in the House, said, “It would be inimical to our country’s standing if we do not show a willingness to act in the face of the use of chemical weapons and to act in a limited way to address that use alone.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — In the run-up to a prime-time televised speech, President Barack Obama blended the threat of a military strike with the hope of a diplomatic solution Tuesday as he worked to rid Syria of an illicit stockpile of fearsome chemical weapons. Secretary of State John Kerry set a hurry-up trip to Geneva for talks Thursday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and the United Nations Security Council first scheduled, and then scrapped, a private meeting on steps to defuse a looming crisis. While administration efforts to win congressional backing for a strike against the government of Bashar Assad took on a far less urgent tone, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel pointedly told a congressional hearing, “For this diplomatic option to have a chance at succeeding, the threat of a U.S. military action, the credible, real threat of U.S. military action, must continue.” At the same hearing, Kerry said any diplomacy “cannot be a process of delay. This cannot be a process of avoidance.” He later added that any agreement must include binding consequences if Syria fails to comply, and

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Thursday, Sept. 12, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This afternoon you might encounter difficulties with travel plans. If so, postpone important decisions until tomorrow. Similar challenges could arise with publishing, the media, medicine and the law. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Although you're focused on shared property, insurance matters and inheritances today, just do your homework and fill your data bank. Wait until tomorrow to make a firm decision about anything. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be patient with others, because today the Moon is at odds with the Sun, and everything is a bit loosey-goosey and all over the map. Tomorrow things will settle down. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) At work today, just attend to routine duties. Don't initiate new things or volunteer for anything. Keep your head down and your powder dry. Easy does it. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This can be a creative day for you; nevertheless, you might encounter obstacles with others. Don't be pushy with your agenda. You will have more success if you wait until tomorrow. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a classic day where you can hide at home in front of the TV with junk food. Play hooky if you can. Work tomorrow. But for those who must work, be low-key. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is a poor day for important decisions. If you have to agree to anything important, do it in the morning. Ideally, you will wait until tomorrow. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Although you're focused on financial matters today, except for the morning, this is a poor day for financial decisions. Tomorrow is much better. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Although the Moon is in your sign today, you will find it difficult dealing with authority figures, especially females. Try to stay flexible and light on your feet. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Keep a low-profile today. If possible, you will enjoy working behind the scenes or working alone. Better yet, you'll enjoy quietly resting. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Expect opposition in group situations today. If you can, you might want to postpone important suggestions until tomorrow. (Easier, more productive day.) PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a poor day to ask for approval or permission from authority figures. By contrast, tomorrow is a good day. (Forewarned is forearmed.) YOU BORN TODAY You are fearless, and your bravery often is connected with ethical issues that are important to you. You're private and sometimes difficult to find; and yet, you are witty and entertaining. Words and language fascinate you. Above all, you are a realist. This year something you've been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish to make room for something new. Birthdate of: Jason Statham, actor; Jennifer Hudson, actress/singer; Neil Peart, musician/author.

Apple introduces two new iPhone models

CUPERTINO, Calif. (AP) — For the first time since introducing the device that changed cellphones forever, Apple will offer two distinct versions of the latest iPhones — a cheaper one made of plastic and another that aims to be “the gold standard of smartphones” and reads your fingerprint. Apple unveiled the latest iPhone models, available on Sept. 20, during an event at its Cupertino, Calif., headquarters. The move comes as the company tries to fend off Samsung and other competitors that want to challenge Apple in the competitive smartphone market. The lower-cost iPhone 5C is expected to help boost sales in China and other areas where people don’t have as much money to spend on new gadgets as they do in the U.S. and Europe. Research firm Gartner Inc. (NYSE:IT) estimates that Apple had a 14.4 percent share of the world’s smartphone market in the second quarter of this year, No. 2 behind Samsung’s 31.7 percent. The lower-cost iPhone 5C will be available in five colors — green, blue, yellow, pink and white. CEO Tim Cook calls it “more fun and colorful” than any other iPhone. The 5C has a 4-inch Retina display and is powered by Apple’s A6 chip. It also has an 8 megapixel camera, live photo filters and a rear cover that lights up. The iPhone 5C will cost $99 for a 16 gigabyte model and $199 for a 32 gigabyte model with a two-year wireless contract. Jefferies analyst Peter Misek called the phones “lovely,” but said in a note to investors that the $99 minimum price for the 5C is

“is higher than expected and still leaves Apple with a product gap in the low-end.” Without a contract, the 5C costs $549 and $649 depending on memory size. The second phone, the 5S, is “the most forward-looking phone we have ever created,” said Phil Schiller, senior vice president of worldwide marketing at Apple. It will come in silver, gold and “space gray” and run a new chip, the A7 that is up to twice as fast as the A6. Schiller said the new phone can run more health and fitness applications. These apps have become increasingly popular as more people use them to track exercise routines, calorie intake and even sleep patterns. The camera in the 5S received some major upgrades, including several automatic features designed to produce better photos. It has a larger pixels and a larger aperture, which helps capture more light. The phone also has a “true-tone” flash feature that is designed not to clash with the colors in the room or a person’s skin color — something Schiller said has not been done on a phone before. The camera, called iSight, has “auto image stabilization,” which helps avoid blurry pictures, and a slow-motion camera for video. A “burst mode” can take 10 frames per second as long as you hold your finger on the shutter, then find the best one in your camera roll. The 5S also includes “Touch ID,” which reads fingerprints at a “detailed level,” Schiller said. He said it is “fun and easy” to teach the 5S about your fingerprint and once you do, you can just touch the

home button to unlock the phone. The company said fingerprints will not be stored on its servers. Tying the fingerprint scanner to payments could also open new revenue channels for Apple. Both models will be on sale on Sept. 20 in the U.S., Australia, China, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Singapore and U.K. Apple said this is the first time that a new phone has been available right away in China — a sign of the growing importance of that market to the company. People will be able to order the 5C in advance on Friday, but not the 5S. For buyers entering a two-year contract with a wireless carrier, the phone will cost $199 for 16 gigabytes of memory, $299 for 32 and $399 for 64. Apple also said its next mobile operating system, iOS 7, will be available as a free download on Sept. 18. Craig Federighi, head of software at Apple Inc., said at an event at the company’s Cupertino, Calif., headquarters that “downloading iOS 7 is like getting an all new device.” The new system can be downloaded on the iPhone 4 and later models, as well as on the tablets beginning with the iPad 2. Apple also said that it expects to ship its 700 millionth iOS device next month. Apple CEO Tim Cook predicts that iOS 7 will become the most popular mobile operating system in the world. Investors seemed unimpressed. Apple’s stock price fell $11.60, or 2.3 percent to close Tuesday’s trading at $494.58.

AP Photo This satellite image made available by NOAA shows Tropical Storm Humberto off the coast of west Africa on Tuesday. In the U.S., summer is almost over, and as of Tuesday morning, not a single hurricane had formed this year. Tornado activity in 2013 is also down around record low levels, while heat waves are fewer and milder than last year, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. If Humberto stays a tropical storm through 8 a.m. EDT Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013, it will be the latest date for the first hurricane of the season since satellites started watching the seas in 1967, according to the National Hurricane Center.

Quiet, not stormy, weather for U.S. this year so far

WASHINGTON (AP) — After a couple years of wild, deadly and costly weather, the United States is mostly getting a lucky break this year. So far. Summer is almost over, and as of Tuesday morning, not a single hurricane had formed this year. Tornado activity in 2013 is also down around record low levels, while heat waves are fewer and milder than last year, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Meteorologists credit luck, shifts in the highaltitude jet stream, and African winds and dust. “It’s been great,” said Deke Arndt, climate monitoring chief for NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. “I hope that we ride this pattern out through this year and following years.” There have been eight tropical storms in the Atlantic. Not one has reached the 74 mph wind threshold to become a hurricane, though Tropical Storm Humberto off the coast of Africa is likely to become one soon. If Humberto stays a tropical storm through 8 a.m. EDT Wednesday, it will be the latest date for the first hurricane of the season since satellites started watching the seas in 1967, according to the National Hurricane Center. This year, overall storm activity in the Atlantic — an index that combines number and strength — is about one-fifth the average. That’s despite warmer-than-normal seas, which usually fuel storms. It has also been a record of nearly eight years since a major hurricane — one with winds of 110 mph — blew ashore in the United States. That was Hurricane Wilma, which hit Florida in October 2005. Meteorologists say dry, stable and at times dusty air blowing from Africa is choking storms instead of allowing them to grow. On top of that, shifts in the jet stream — the same river of air some blame for wild weather in 2011 and 2012 — have caused dry air and wind shear, which interfere with storm formation, said Gerry Bell of NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center. Plain old random chance is also a big factor, said MIT meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel. “Nobody’s complaining,” said former National Hurricane Center director Max Mayfield. Bell and NOAA last month forecast a 70 percent chance of a busier-than-normal hurricane season, with six to nine hurricanes and 13 to 19 named storms. Bell said he is sticking with that forecast because it was just an unusually slow August, adding: “There’s going to be more hurricanes; that’s just a fact.” People shouldn’t let their guard down because several past seasons have started off slow and ended quite busy and deadly — 1967, 1984, 1988, 1994 and 2002, said Ryan Maue, a meteorologist with the private firm Weather Bell. Hurricane season starts in June and runs through the end of November “All it takes is one bad hurricane to ruin an otherwise quiet hurricane season,” said Weather Underground meteorology director Jeff Masters, a former hurricane hunter. “Recall that last year’s worst storm — Hurricane Sandy — didn’t occur until the third week of October.” In the nation’s heartland this year, tornadoes are flirting with a record for the fewest, with just a bit more than half the normal number of nearly 1,300 twisters reported by mid-September. A shift in the jet stream is credited. While the West has seen heat waves and major wildfires, the summer heat overall hasn’t been nearly oppressive and extensive as last year’s record-setter. Last year, weather stations around the U.S. set more than 59,000 heat-related records through Sept. 9. This year they have set 21,254. In 2011, the U.S. had 14 weather disasters that cost at least $1 billion. Last year it was 11. While NOAA hasn’t counted them yet this year, the number is far lower, but includes two terrible Oklahoma tornadoes, meteorologists said. National Weather Service Director Louis Uccellini said climate change tends to push the world toward more extreme weather, but sometimes natural variability pulls the weather more back to normal, and this is one of those years for much of the U.S. However, China, Japan and Korea have had many extremes, especially heat waves, Masters said. And Uccellini has one big warning: “This year is not over yet.”

NEW YORK (AP) — As New York City’s contentious primary campaign drew to a close Tuesday, some voters — including one leading mayoral candidate — encountered problems with the city’s decades-old voting machines. Turnout appeared light, but the city’s complaint line received several thousand voting-related calls. Many reported jams and breakdowns in the antiquated lever machines, which were hauled out of retirement to replace much-maligned electronic devices. In some sites, the broken machines forced voters to use pen and paper to cast their ballot. Republican mayoral candidate Joe Lhota presumably wrote his own name when his machine broke at his Brooklyn polling place. Democrat Anthony Weiner, whose mayoral campaign was dogged by a persistent sexting scandal, also encountered a problem when poll workers were briefly unable to find his signature. Other candidates had no trouble voting for themselves, including Democratic front-runner Bill de Blasio, the city’s liberal public advocate, who is pitching himself as the cleanest break from Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s administration. And while just weeks ago his campaign was an afterthought, he now has a legitimate shot of surging right past the 40 percent mark that would avoid a runoff three weeks from now. “I’m a lefty and I’ve had enough of the righties,” said Jessica Safran, a business consultant from Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. “Even if de Blasio moves

to the center if he gets elected, he’ll be closer to the positions I want than the others.” In a Quinnipiac University poll released Monday, de Blasio was the choice of 39 percent of likely Democratic voters. De Blasio’s rise was as sudden as it was unexpected. He benefited from placing his interracial family at the heart of his campaign, by connecting with voters over the need for NYPD reforms, and by drawing away voters from Weiner following the former congressman’s latest scandal. “I liked what he said about the economic inequality in the city,” said Norma Vavolizza, 65, who lives in the Bronx and works in marketing. “I think it’s a serious issue that needs to be addressed. Also Tuesday, former Gov. Eliot Spitzer was trying to make a political comeback in the Democratic primary for city comptroller. Seeking to rebuild a political career devastated by a prostitution scandal, Spitzer took on Scott Stringer, Manhattan’s borough president. In the mayoral race, if de Blasio’s support holds, the other spot in a potential runoff Oct. 1 appears to be a matchup between City Council Speaker Christine Quinn and former Comptroller Bill Thompson. Quinn, who is bidding to become the city’s first female and first openly gay mayor, led the polls for most of the year but has seen support disappear as her rivals have repeatedly linked her to the bitter debate to let Bloomberg run for a third term in 2009.

Documents: Officials misused US surveillance program SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Government officials for nearly three years accessed data on thousands of domestic phone numbers they shouldn’t have and then misrepresented their actions to a secret spy court to reauthorize the government’s surveillance program, documents released Tuesday show. The Obama administration had earlier conceded that its surveillance program scooped up more domestic phone calls and emails than authorized. But until Tuesday, the depths of the program’s abuse were unknown. According to the documents released by the administration, a spy court judge in 2009 was so fed up with the government’s overreaching that he threatened to shutter the surveillance program designed to fight terrorism. Judge Reggie Walton said in March 2009 that he had “lost confidence” in officials’ ability to legally operate the surveillance program. The NSA told the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that month that “from a technical standpoint, there was no single person who had a complete technical understanding” of how the program’s computer system worked. Walton issued his blistering opinion after discovering government officials had been accessing domestic phone records for nearly three years without “reasonable, articulate suspicion” that they were connected to terrorism. For instance, he noted that only 1,935 phone numbers out of 17,835 on a list investigators were working with in early 2009 met that standard. Walton said the government’s excuse that analysis believed his order applied only to archived phone records “strained credulity,” and he ordered the National Security Agency to conduct an “end-to-end” review of its processes and policies while also ordering closer monitoring of its activities. Later in 2009, a Justice Department lawyer reported to the spy court a “likely violation” of NSA surveillance rules. The lawyer said that in some cases, it appeared the NSA was distributing sensitive phone records by email to as many as 189 analysts, but only 53 were approved by the court to see them. Walton wrote that he was “deeply troubled by the incidents,” which he said occurred just weeks after the NSA had performed a major review of its internal practices because of the initial problems reported earlier in the year. The judge said in November 2009 that on the same day that the NSA counterterrorism office reminded employees they were not allowed to indiscriminately share phone records with co-workers — and one day after a similar reminder from the agency’s lawyers — an NSA analyst improperly shared information with colleagues who were not approved to see it. Walton also noted that sometimes a U.S. phone number would be reassigned by phone companies, and in such cases the NSA would scrutinize the records of an innocent customer. Walton called such cases “a source of concern by the court.” He noted that, months earlier, the court ordered the NSA to explain more fully how it chooses which phone numbers to search and to delete any information that was improperly collected.

Troy routs Greenville to start North play Staff Reports

GREENVILLE — Troy has been forced to share the Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division championship three straight seasons. Thursday night, the Trojans began their quest for a fourth straight title — and, possibly an outright one — with a convincing 8-1 victory over the Greenville Green Wave on the road to open up North Division play. “This was an important one to get for us,” Troy boys soccer coach Richard Phillips said. “In the first half, we didn’t finish the way we wanted to. We had chances, but we let them back into the game. In the second half, we were more determined and moved the ball quicker.” Troy held a 2-1 lead at the half after goals by Adam

Witmer and Mitchell Evans, both of which Jake Diffenderfer assisted on. After that, it was all over. Nick Kleptz had two goals in the second half, while Diffenderfer, Brandon Hess, Ian Stutz and Caleb Liebold each added one. Diffenderfer also finished with game with four assists, and Jake Mastrioanni had one. The win was Troy’s fourth straight since beginning the season 0-1-1, as the Trojans improved to 4-1-1 on the season — and, most importantly, 1-0 in the GWOC North. It’s been a strange couple of weeks for the Trojans, who saw their game against Fairborn — a 3-1 win — moved to Ferguson Field on Sept. 3 and then their home matchup against Xenia on Sept. 5 moved to October due to the “Gentlemen of the

Road” tour. The Trojans remain on the road Thursday at West Carrollton before returning home Sept. 17 to host Butler in another important GWOC North matchup. Further details about the game were not available at time of press. Troy Christian 4, Dayton Christian 4 DAYTON — It looked grim for Troy Christian at halftime Tuesday against Metro Buckeye Conference rival Dayton Christian, which entered the game as the fourranked team in Dayton area Division III poll. Troy Christian trailed 3-0, before scoring just before half to make it 3-1. Dayton Christian went up 4-1 with a goal to start the second half, but the Eagles rallied

off three-straight goals to force a draw. “They’ve been our rivals (in the MBC),” Troy Christian coach Ryan Zeman said. “I don’t think we have ever tied or beaten them, so it’s a big accomplishment.” Patrick Canavan had a hat trick for the Eagles, Alex Moritz added a goal. Troy Christian hosts Xenia Christian Thursday. • Girls Newton 2, Botkins 1 BOTKINS — Newton’s Billy Lavy scored a pair of goals to lift the Indians past Botkins 2-1 Tuesday. Madison Tebics and Erin Sweitzer each added assists in the win. Newton hosts MiltonUnion on Saturday, part of a boys-girls doubleheader.

TROY — Forced to open its division title defense with a patchwork lineup in a brutally hot gym, Troy found itself in a bad position. But whether they were scoring points or giving them away, the Trojans always in control. Lauren Freed, Katie DeMeo and Drezanee Smith all piled up double-digit numbers in kills Tuesday night, freshman setter Emily Brinkman stepped in and got the job done and the defending Greater Western Ohio Conference North champion Troy Trojans opened up division play with a 25-21,

CASSTOWN — Miami East plowed past Bradford in three games — 25-6, 25-5, 25-10 — Tuesday to remain undefeated in Cross County Conference play. For the Vikings, Sam Cash had four kills and four aces to go along with nine assists, Allison Morrett added seven aces, a block and four assists, Kati Runner had three kills and a block, Lindsey Black had four aces, Ashley Current had five kills, two aces and three blocks, Trina Current had a kill and a block, Angie Mack had four kills and three aces, Anna Kiesewetter had five digs and Noel Dalton added two digs. “We got to play everybody, so it was great to get all of our players involved,” Miami East volleyball coach John Cash said. “Anytime you can get everybody some on-court action, that’s always a good thing.” The Miami East freshman and JV teams also won for the tripleheader sweep. Miami East (6-2, 4-0) travels to Arcanum Thursday. Tippecanoe 3, Indian Lake 2 TIPP CITY — The Tippecanoe Red Devils won their fourth straight Tuesday night, rallying to win in five 21-25, 25-22, 25-27, 25-18, 15-4.

AFC North has dismal opening week, combined 0-4 CINCINNATI (AP) — Bengals coach Marvin Lewis watched a little video of Pittsburgh’s season-opening disaster and felt a kinship with the failure. “I just watched the first half of their game and I’m sure they feel the same way we do,” Lewis said. Not just them. They’re all feeling the blues this week in the AFC North. All four teams in the NFL’s most successful division over the last five years have started the season at 0-1. It’s only the second time that’s happened, according to STATS LLC. The other time? Way back in 2002, when the league went to the current division format. And it’s not just that all four lost, it’s how they lost: —The defending Super Bowl-champion Baltimore Ravens went back to Denver, the scene of their improbable playoff comeback last season, and had their revamped defense get taken apart for a record-seven touchdown passes by Peyton Manning in a 49-27 rout. —Over in Pittsburgh, the towel-waving crowd at Heinz Field put those towels away and filed out quietly near the end of a shocking 16-9 loss to the Titans that was in most ways the worst of the division’s opening flops. —In Cleveland, the

Browns did their annual looking-a-little-better tease before falling apart and losing to the Dolphins 23-10, dropping their ninth straight opener and their 14th in the last 15 years. —Lewis’ team actually looked the best of the bunch before bungling one away in Chicago, 24-21, with personal fouls, wasted timeouts and turnovers. None of them looked like a playoff-caliber team for very long. “We’ve got a lot of work to do,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. “Nobody cares about our problems. They’re glad we’ve got them. We need to understand that. We need to stick together and persevere.” The Steelers might have the toughest go of it. They missed out on the playoffs last season by finishing 8-8, unable to run the ball consistently or protect quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. They drafted Le’Veon Bell to boost the running game, but he got hurt during camp. Pittsburgh ran for only 32 yards in the opener and Roethlisberger was sacked five times. Worse, Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey tore ligaments in his right knee and linebacker Larry Foote ruptured his right biceps, ending their seasons. Up next: a Monday

night game in Cincinnati against the Bengals and former Steelers linebacker James Harrison. Pittsburgh hasn’t opened a season 0-2 since 2002. The Bengals looked good in the first half at Chicago before reverting to their old Bungles ways. The final flub was linebacker Rey Mauaulga — a team captain last season — throwing down a Bears defender after the whistle for a penalty that allowed Chicago to run out the clock. And that wasn’t all of it. Twice, the Bengals had to call a timeout because they had the wrong number of players on the field on defense, leaving them with no way to stop the clock in the closing minutes. At least everyone else AP PHOTO lost.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Jeremy Guthrie got a major assist from his defense in pitching six innings, Alcides Escobar hit a rare home run and the Kansas City Royals snapped a six-game losing streak in Cleveland, 6-3 on Tuesday night to close on the Indians and two others in the AL’s cramped wild-card scramble.

Guthrie (14-10) allowed just one run and nine hits, but was helped by three double plays. With the win and Tampa Bay’s loss, Kansas City pulled within three games of a wild-card spot. The Royals also got a game tighter to the Indians, who dropped to 6-3 in September. Mike Moustakas hit a two-run double in the

sixth off Zach McAllister (7-9) and the won’t-goaway Royals won for the 12th time in 17 games. Kansas City had lost seven in a row before this stretch and was on the verge of falling from the race. But the Royals are still hanging around in the wide-open playoff chase, and could still have a say in the AL Central

Guthrie, Royals end skid at Indians’ expense with three games later this week at first-place Detroit. Royals reliever Luke Hochevar struck out all five batters he faced, and closer Greg Holland worked a perfect ninth for his 41st save.

infield turned double plays in the third, fourth and sixth innings to back the right-hander, who won for just the second time in seven starts. Michael Bourn had two RBIs for Cleveland. Of the six current teams in the wild-card chase, the Indians have the most favorable schedule. Kansas City is the only team with a winning record that Cleveland will face the rest of the way. Moustakas’ two-run double highlighted a three-run sixth, when the Royals chased McAllister and opened a 4-1 lead. Eric Hosmer walked and Billy Butler doubled into the left-field corner. Moustakas then snapped an 0-for-16 slide by pulling his double to right. Salvador Perez followed with an RBI single to give the Royals a threerun lead and finish McAllister, who allowed four runs and six hits in five-plus innings. Butler’s sacrifice fly made it 5-1 in the seventh before the Indians rallied with two in their half on Bourn’s two-run dou-

ble. However, Hochevar came on and fanned Nick Swisher looking and whiffed All-Star Jason Kipnis to preserve the two-run lead. He struck out the side in the eighth. Escobar’s RBI single in the eighth put Kansas City up 6-3. The Royals hit several long flies that were caught for outs through the first four innings before Escobar ended a long homerless drought to tie it 1-all in the fifth. With one out, Escobar connected on a full-count pitch from McAllister, driving it onto the pedestrian patio in left for his fourth homer and first since April 28, a span of 467 at-bats. Escobar’s previous homer also came against the Indians, a shot off right-hander Justin Masterson. With left-handed hitters batting .328 this season against Guthrie, Indians manager Terry Francona loaded his lineup with eight lefties. Cleveland strung together three twoout hits in the first off Guthrie to take a 1-0 lead.

Activities Center. Of the 78 points Greenville scored in the match, only 30 of them — 38 percent — came via kill, block or ace. The majority of the damage done to Troy (7-4, 1-0) came from the Trojans themselves, particularly in the third game. “It never felt like we weren’t in control,” Troy volleyball coach Michelle Owen said. “We were disappointed with Game 3, of course. We had no sense of urgency, and it felt like we were just going through the motions.” Ashton Riley helped the Trojans catch fire at the end of the game, though. Greenville (3-8, 0-1) held a 24-17 lead, but a service error gave the ball to Ashton Riley, who very nearly helped Troy complete the sweep. She served up an ace, Katie DeMeo stuffed down a block and Riley hit another ace and two more serves the Wave couldn’t handle, and suddenly it was 24-23. But Greenville’s Chloe Light — who led the Wave with five kills, two blocks and two aces — was able to put down a free ball for a kill to force a fourth game. That game was never in doubt, as Troy jumped out to a 10-5 lead and never led by less than three the rest of the way. “We had two starters out due to injury tonight. With the lineup we had to play, I was pretty pleased,” Owen said. “We didn’t pass the ball very well tonight, and to expect a freshman setter (Brinkman) to go in with us passing like that and expect her to make up for it and get the ball to where we could score, she did a nice job. “In fact, Game 4 was our worst game of the match passing statistically, and the girls still found a way to win. It really is about taking care of the ball on our side of the net.” Brinkman had 36 assists, six digs and three aces in the match. Many of those assists went to Freed, DeMeo and Smith. Freed led the way with 12 kills, four aces and 10 digs, DeMeo added 11 kills and three blocks and Smith had 10 kills, four locks and two digs. “Drezanee did a nice

job for us tonight,” Owen said. “There’s been a couple matches recently where she’s been able to get in and get some experience and contribute.” Emily Moser added eight kills and four digs, Riley had four kills, five aces and five digs, Abby Brinkman had four digs and an ace, Leah Selby had two aces and a dig and Maddie Kleptz had a dig. Having narrowly missed the chance to

close out the match serving in Game 3, Riley got another shot at the end of Game 4. She took over the serve with Troy leading 21-15 and served up a point and an ace, but a shot went wide to end that run two points away from the win, as well. Karlee Lennen had four kills and four blocks for Greenville, Rachel Foreman had three kills and two aces, Harmony Kolling and Paige Tester each had two aces, Alyssa

Baumgardner had a block and an ace and Emily Beanblossom had a kill. Troy now faces arguably the biggest test it will see in the North this season Thursday night when it travels to Butler. “Our communication has to improve,” Owen said. “When we get an easy ball, we’ve got to take advantage. We can’t back down. We spent too much of tonight on our heels, and we need to attack more.”

COLUMBUS (AP) — The United States closed in on its seventh straight World Cup appearance, beating regional rival Mexico 2-0 Tuesday night on second-half goals by Eddie Johnson and Landon Donovan before a raucous red-whiteand-blue-clad crowd that stood and chanted from start to finish. After withstanding

Mexican pressure for the first 20 minutes, the U.S. settled into the match and got the breakthrough in the 49th minute when Johnson outjumped defender Diego Reyes to meet Donovan’s corner kick 8 yards out and head the ball past frozen goalkeeper Jesus Corona. With Mexican shifting to an offense-minded 3-4-3 formation,

the U.S. scored in the 78th following a throw in when Mix Diskerud threaded the ball across the goalmouth. Clint Dempsey touched it as it went by to Donovan, who poked it in from 2 yards. The U.S. (5-2-1) moved into first place in the North and Central American and Caribbean finals with 16 points, one ahead

of Costa Rica (4-1-3), which was held to a 1-1 tie at last-place Jamaica. The top three teams qualify, and third-place Honduras had a 2-1 lead over Panama in the second half Tuesday night. The U.S. would clinch if the Catrachos got a victory or even a draw. Mexico (1-2-5) is fourth and likely headed to a playoff against Oceania champion New Zealand.
