COMING SUNDAY

LAURA

Woman injured in crash BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com

Getting our just desserts For the better part of two years, the Undercover Grubbers have been feasting our way across Miami County. We’ve eaten at local mom and pop restaurants, pizza parlors, international dining establishments and even school cafeterias. After all that eating, we figured we were about due for some dessert. That — coupled with the blistering heat we’ve had this summer — made our choice an easy one. For this edition of the Undercover Grubbers, we decided to tackle ice cream and other frozen novelty treats.

Coming Sunday in Valley, in the Miami Valley Sunday News.

BEIRUT (AP) — The U.N. singled out government forces Friday for blame in the latest massacre in Syria, a frenzy of killing that raises new questions about whether diplomacy has any chance to end the crisis more than 16 months into the bloodiest revolt of the Arab Spring. As the violence turns ever more chaotic, analysts warn the effort by special envoy Kofi Annan has become nothing more than a pretense, with government forces, rebels, jihadists and others fighting for power. “Violence and escalation have outpaced political and international diplomacy,” said Fawaz A. Gerges, director of the Middle East Center at the London School of Economics. “I don’t see a light at the end of the tunnel. … All I see is more violence and more escalation, and this horrible massacre is another sign that Syria is spiraling out of control.” Scores of people were killed Thursday when Syrian gunners bombarded the impoverished village of Tremseh with tanks and helicopters in what rebels claim was among the worst single days of bloodshed in the uprising against President Bashar Assad. The accounts of the killings and death tolls varied widely. Late Friday, local activists backed away from early reports that more than 200 people were killed. One said he had confirmed 74, but had only 20 names. Another provided a list of 103 names. For its part, the Syrian government said more than 50 people were killed.

Plus, this year, each side is accusing the other of not being up front with the public about his plans if elected. Romney points to Obama’s overheard comment to the Russians that he’d have more flexibility in a second term on issues like missile defense. And Obama and Democrats point to Romney’s unwillingness to say exactly what would replace the health care law if he and the Republicans successfully repeal it. There are plenty of ways e

JPMorgan traders may have sought to conceal losses NEW YORK (AP) — JPMorgan Chase said Friday that its traders may have tried to conceal the losses from a soured bet that has embarrassed the bank and cost it almost $6 billion far more than its CEO first suggested. The bank said an internal investigation had uncovered evidence that led executives to “question the integrity” of the values, or marks, that traders assigned to their trades. JPMorgan also said that it planned to revoke two years’ worth of pay from some of the senior managers involved in the bad bet, and that it had closed the division of the bank responsible for the mistake. “This has shaken our company to the core,” CEO Jamie Dimon said.

The bank said the loss, which Dimon estimated at $2 billion when he disclosed it in May, had grown to $5.8 billion, and could grow larger than $7 billion if financial markets deteriorate severely. Dimon said the worst appeared to be behind the and investors bank, seemed to agree: They sent JPMorgan stock up 6 percent, making it the best performer in the Dow Jones industrial average. Daniel Alpert, a founding managing partner with the New York investment bank Westwood Capital Partners LLC, said the bank and Dimon appeared to have learned from the crisis. He said Dimon now realizes how complex and difficult to manage the bank is, will be more dili-

gent in the future and probably won’t be the crusader he has been against some proposed financial regulation. “Did it cost shareholders a few bucks? Yup,” he said. “But it was a non-horrible way of learning the lesson, in the sense that the entire institution didn’t burn down, the lesson’s been taught and Dimon seems ready to take it.” For his part, Dimon concluded: “We are not proud of this moment, but we are proud of our company.” The investigation, which covered more than a million emails and tens of thousands of voice messages, suggested traders were trying to make losses look smaller, the bank said. The revelation could expose JPMorgan to civil fraud charges. If regulators

decide that employee deceptions caused JPMorgan to report inaccurate financial details, they could pursue charges against the employees, the bank or both. The Justice Department, the Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulators, including one in Britain, are looking into the loss. The Justice Department and SEC declined comment. JPMorgan could not necessarily hide behind the actions of its employees. Regulators could decide that its oversight or risk management contributed to the problematic statements. As a result of what it found, JPMorgan lowered its reported net income for the first quarter of this year by $459 million.

to distribute blame for the public’s fuzziness about the two candidates’ intentions. For one, there are still plenty of significant unknowns about their policy plans more so with respect to Romney than the president, who’s already spent 3 years governing from the Oval Office. Romney, for example, has pledged to cap total federal spending at 20 percent of the gross domestic product by the end of his first term, increase defense spending and put the federal budget on track to be balanced within eight to 10 years. But he’s offered scant detail about the painful spending cuts that would be necessary to pull off such a trifecta.

Obama, for his part, has laid out annual proposed budgets for the federal government that are lush with details. But year after year, many of those details are dead on arrival in Congress, leaving voters to wonder how things would be different in a second Obama term. The president also has put off some key policy decisions until a possible second term. Earlier this week, while renewing his push to extend tax cuts only for middle-income earners, Obama said crafting a long-term plan to simplify the tax code could wait. “Once the election is over, things have calmed down a little bit, based on

what the American people have said and how they’ve spoken during that election, we’ll be in a good position to decide how to reform our entire tax code in a simple way that lowers rates and helps our economy grow, and brings down our deficit,” he said. His speech, along with GOP efforts in Congress to extend an even broader complement of tax cuts, prompted the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget to warn policymakers this week against “kicking the can down the road” on how to solve the country’s growing debt problems. Comprehensive plans to address illegal immigra-

tion and Social Security’s financial woes also have been pushed into a second term by Obama, although he took unilateral action to stop deporting young people who were brought to the country illegally as children. Romney, meanwhile, has been vague on a number of big-ticket policy fronts beyond his sketchy budget proposals. He’s promised a “civil but resolute” plan to address illegal immigration details TBD. And he makes a virtue of the lack of specifics he’s provided on what he’d do after repealing Obama’s health care overhaul, saying states should make the call on how to cover their uninsured.

Visa, MasterCard agree to $6B settlement over card fees NEW YORK (AP) Visa, MasterCard and major banks agreed Friday to pay at least $6 billion to settle a lawsuit brought by retailers. A banking industry trade group said the settlement would allow stores to charge customers more to pay with a credit card. Lawyers involved in the

case called it the largest antitrust settlement in history. The dispute dates to 2005. The retailers claimed Visa, MasterCard and the banks conspired to fix the fees that stores pay to accept credit and debit cards. The fees average about 2 percent of the price

NEW YORK (AP) — With new public stock offerings for guitar maker Fender and travel booking website Kayak on deck next week, there are signs demand is starting to grow for IPOs after a five-week freeze triggered by a steep decline in financial markets and exacerbated by Facebook's rocky May 18 debut. Five companies are scheduled to go public next week alone, including Fender, Kayak and Palo Alto Networks, a maker of computer network security products. After Facebook, just four deals made it to market by the end of June, marking the longest stretch without an initial public offering of stock since August-October 2011. Stocks sank then in the wake of the U.S. debt limit showdown and a deepening European financial crisis. — Staff and wire reports x

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Chattanooga (Tenn.) Times on political change in Mexico: Enrique Pena Nieto, who won Mexico’s presidential election Sunday, campaigned on a pledge to restore peace and prosperity to a nation increasingly weary of drug violence and slow economic growth. His slender margin of victory and lingering worries about the turbulent role his party has played in Mexico’s history, however, suggest that many of his countrymen worry about Pena Nieto’s ability to honor that pledge. That is a concern, too, for the United States. The two nations are inextricably entwined. What occurs south of the nations’ shared border almost always has an impact north of it. Mexico is the United States’ third largest trading partner and, for better or worse, it also is directly involved in the immigration, drug and gun issues that play a major role in U.S. politics and policies — at both the state and federal level.

Early on in the 16-month uprising, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called on Assad to cease shelling crowded neighborhoods in towns where the rebels had holed up and urged the second-generation dictator to begin instituting needed democratic and economic reforms. Assad ignored him, as he has other national leaders who have offered similar advice. Instead, he stepped up the pace of bloodshed and, with support from Russia and Iran, dug in for the long haul against the rebels. Turkey had been a bystander, reluctantly offering sanctuary to civilian refugees fleeing the fighting in Syria. However, Turkey has increasingly become a place for the rebels to retreat, refit and rearm, as well as a location for their wounded to be treated. It is now openly the headquarters of the umbrella rebel group, the Free Syrian Army. Intense fighting continues inside Syria, intense enough that the head of the U.N. peacekeeping mission told the Security Council that it was too dangerous for the U.N. observers to return to the country. Russia was alarmed enough for the security of one of its few friends in the Mideast to begin readying shipment of a half-billion dollars worth of arms — fighter jets, helicopters, air defense systems to Syria. Those arms suggest the Russians are worried about outside military intervention. But the U.S. and the other Western nations have repeatedly disavowed any intention of intervening in Syria. The real threat, now that Assad has alienated Turkey, is better trained, armed and organized rebel forces operating from sanctuaries along the border. Erdogan said recently, “Turkey will support Syrian people in every way until they get rid of the bloody dictator and his gang.”

High school may end, but bullying does not I’m thankful my Facebook friends have stepped it up this week. Instead of reading about the latest developments in “Jersey Shore” star Snooki’s pregnancy or the latest and greatest crazed Justin Bieber stalker, they’ve decided to invest their time into more promising stories. In case you’re not on Facebook, it now has a convenient little ticker with “trending articles” at the top that all your friends are reading. Warning though, after seeing what some of your friends are actually reading, you may have the urge to defriend them. So while my “news alert” ticker is usually filled with the latest MTV star blunder, this week it was rattled with stories of teens committing suicide and families actually moving thousands of miles to get away from the bullying their kids are enduring. The bad news for the families making the cross-country trek? It’s probably going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Bullying has been in the news a lot in the past few years, mainly due to the number of teenagers and young adults taking their lives because of the atrocious things people are saying about them. It’s not just a tragedy anymore, it’s an epidemic, and it’s one that’s

I never knew that I had participated so much in making this girl’s life miserable, and it still haunts and saddens me to this day. In high school I lucked out.

I made it Amanda Stewart through some of the toughest years Troy Daily News Columist relatively unscathed, thanks to my right arm and upperclassman boyfriend of three years. practically unavoidable, whether I saw a lot of bullying though, you’re 10 or 20. even on the softball team alone.

As my style branched out in college, and I chose black and pink hair, piercings and tattoos, I suddenly developed a reputation I hadn’t rightfully earned. I had teachers who accused me of coming to class hung over (which trust me, if I were hung over I was sleeping it off in my bed, not coming to their class), and ones who accused me of cheating. I understand the stereotypes that come from the way I look, but the inferior treatment I received, the advice to try to “fit in better” and maybe my work (which hadn’t slacked) would “improve,” was just another dose of reality. High school ends, but bullying never does. Most of us are just lucky enough to have the skills to cope with it by the time we’re 30. Amanda Stewart appears Saturdays in the Troy Daily News. She’s not proud of her “Mean Girls” years.

Businessman in Dubai released on bail

Saturday, July 14, 2012

FISHER - CHENEY

CEO of Deyaar, one of several Dubai-based property developers that rose to prominence during the emirate’s building boom last decade. He was arrested in 2008 as part of a probe into alleged embezzlement by executives at the company. Authorities later targeted him in other investigations involving alleged financial improprieties involving Deyaar. He has denied wrongdoing. The Lebanon-born Shahin is one of several businesspeople under investigation for financial irregularities in the UAE that allegedly occurred as the desert country transformed itself into a freewheeling international business hub. After more than four years in jail awaiting trial, Shahin began going without food on May 14 to draw attention to his case. He said shortly after beginning the hunger strike that he

feared he was being left in legal limbo because authorities had yet to bring his case to trial. In a written statement confirming his release, Shahin thanked U.S. officials for pressing his case. He also called on Emirati authorities to consolidate several separate sets of charges against him so his lawyers can mount a more effective defense. “All I have asked for is the same treatment under the law as other Emirati defendants standing accused of similar charges. Now that Dubai authorities have taken the first step for equal due process for all defendants by granting my bail, I look forward to the opportunity to prove my innocence during a fair, transparent, and open trial,” Shahin said. He added that he will seek medical attention to restore his health. Local media have reported on a wave of

hunger strikes in UAE prisons in recent months among inmates jailed on financial crimes, including issuing bad checks. American officials in the UAE took an unusually public role in advocating for Shahin as his health deteriorated. The pressure risked opening a rare diplomatic rift with one of Washington’s closest Arab allies at a time when traditional U.S. relationships elsewhere in the Mideast are being tested by the Arab Spring changes. The seven-state UAE federation, which includes the emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, is OPEC’s third largest oil producer. It maintains strong economic ties with the U.S. and hosts important American air bases and other strategic sites. Dubai officials have not responded to requests for comment about the case, and court officials could not be reached on Friday.

The ‘Sky’ is the limit at VBS

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) Things kept getting worse for Royce Brown. The plumbing job he’d held for more than 15 years had slowly become less steady. By the time the company he was working for went defunct toward the end of 2010, the then-45-year-old couldn’t afford to pay his rent. He lost his home. Within a month he’d lost everything. Brown placed blame on anything he could. “I blamed the economy, I blamed the president, I blamed from top to bottom, you know,” he said. “I blamed everything. What can you do? What can you do? There’s no more work out there. No work. Nobody needs a plumber.” For more than a year, the U.S. Marine Corps veteran lived on the streets. He slept on friends’ couches when he could; other nights he just walked. Often he meandered from one side of Savannah to the other just to kill time. Just to stay alive. “I would sit in the park up until the time that you can’t sit there anymore, then I’d walk all night,” Brown said. “I’d find a little place to sit down and rest and get back up and walk.” Brown’s life began to improve about three months ago after an encounter with a peer counselor from Goodwill Industries of the Coastal Empire and an introduction to the non-profit organization’s Operation Open Doors. When he was a recruit stationed at the Marine Corps Recruiting Depot at Parris Island, S.C., in 1986, Brown didn’t think life could get any more difficult. Almost 25 years later, Brown’s mind was drastically changed. “Parris Island was a struggle, you know hard, physical work, but I liked that,” he said. “It was tough, but that’s why I wanted to be a Marine, because they seemed tougher than anyone else … But it’s nothing like (being homeless) was. Not knowing where you’re going to sleep every night. “Nothing’s worse than not knowing where your next meal is coming from. That’s scary; I’m talking about terrifying.” Because he lacked proper identification, Brown could not stay at a shelter. Some nights he’d sleep at a friend’s house, but he didn’t like to impose. “They helped me out, but you can’t always put that on someone, you know, and you can’t expect someone to feed you or whatever it may be,” he said. “And, for me, I’d never been in any situation like that before, so I didn’t know where to go.” Nighttime was the worst. When the sun set, Brown said, he did everything he could to avoid people.

More than once he was robbed of what little he had. Occasionally he was attacked, but thanks to his Marine Corps values, Brown said, he stayed away from the temptations of drugs and violence. “That’s basically what kept me going through it,” he said. “You know it kept me motivated; it kept me always staying positive. “I was falling down a hill, but as a Marine, you know, you always try to stay motivated.” Since Goodwill Industries of the Coastal Empire launched Operation Open Doors in September 2010 it has helped about 300 homeless veterans in Chatham County find work, said Tabeter Robinson, the program’s director. Operation Open Doors’ mission is to shrink the population of homeless veterans in the county by providing training and helping them find a job. No matter what skills a veteran may come into the program with, Robinson said, each person starts from the beginning. They learn to use a computer, to write a resume and how to interview for a job. Goodwill provides them with clothing and shoes and reconnects them with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. “It’s life-changing for them,” Robinson said. “A large majority of them don’t realize they even have veterans benefits from the VA. That alone is a huge improvement in their lives with access to health care and programs that can help them improve their quality of life.” It can be a difficult process, Robinson said, and many of the people who start the program don’t finish it. But it is worth it, she said, to see many of them better themselves. “These veterans go and they sacrifice for us, and this is my payback to the sacrifice that they’ve done for our country,” Robinson said. “To see someone smile, working on a job it makes it all worthwhile.” Every Tuesday, Goodwill’s peer counselors go into the community to locate homeless veterans and recruit them into the program. That’s how peer counselor Lamar Oliver, an Air Force veteran, found Brown in March at the Old Savannah City Mission, where Brown had gone in search of a meal. Brown immediately immersed himself in the program, Robinson said. “He was here every day of the week,” she said. “He went above and beyond, and because he came in on fire and ready to work we were able to place him fairly quickly.”

Contentious religion succeeds in Uganda KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) A religion with origins in Japan is quickly amassing a following in Uganda, winning converts in a sleek campaign that has attracted the attention of Christian clerics offended by its beliefs. Happy Science advertises itself as a global religion with a goal of teaching “the truth about life, the world and ourselves.” The religion says it’s grand mission is to create a world filled with love, peace, harmony and prosperity. The success of Happy Science in Uganda was put on public display late last month at a lecture given by the religion’s middle-aged Japanese founder on his first visit to Africa. Buses decorated with the image of Happy Science founder Ryuho Okawa ferried people from all over Uganda to attend his lecture inside the national stadium, causing traffic jams and upsetting athletes who had planned to use the space for Olympic trials. Happy Science officials do not know precisely how many converts they have won since coming to Uganda in 2008, but they say most of the 10,000 people who attended Okawa’s lecture were believers. Uganda’s population, one of the youngest in the world, is heavily Christian, and Happy Science officials want to use the East African country as a springboard for what they hope will be success across Africa. But the group’s visibility has brought scrutiny. Some Christian clerics have gone on the offensive, saying the religion should not be allowed to take root in Uganda.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Parents aren’t doing ‘Allie’ any favors Dear Annie: My fiance and I cut corners for four years so we could have a nice wedding. We didn't ask either set of parents for money, and they didn't offer. We're footing the entire bill, including the formal wear for the attendants. The problem is my 34-year-old socially awkward sister, "Allie." Allie was hospitalized 20 years ago when she was brutally beaten by some older teenagers. She never received psychological help. My mother pays Allie's rent and all of her bills. Family vacations have been cancelled to keep Allie comfortable. My parents missed my college graduation because Allie was nervous about fitting into the airline seat. If I outperformed her academically, my parents asked me to downplay my success so Allie wouldn't feel bad. When I got engaged, my mother asked me to skip the engagement party and shower because those things "make Allie anxious." I lost 190 pounds for health reasons. Allie makes nasty comments, saying I'm only having a wedding to show off my new body. I bent over backward to find Allie a flattering plus-size maid-of-honor dress and was so thrilled when she finally found one she liked that I bought it for her, even though it was twice the cost of my wedding dress. Now she's decided she hates the dress, and she told the entire bridal party that I'm a Bridezilla, while I'm stressing myself out to make sure she feels comfortable. Allie has picked fights with my new in-laws and caused two bridesmaids to back out of the wedding. Last week, my mother bawled me out for being "domineering" and said I should "consider Allie's feelings." Annie, I have been considering Allie's feelings since I was 10. My heart breaks for what happened to Allie, but can't I have just one day where people are thinking about me? I've suggested family counseling, but they refuse to go. How do I make my parents realize that I'm not the bad guy? — Normal Sister Dear Normal: It is not too late for Allie to get psychological help, and she could surely use it. Your parents are doing her no favors by coddling her into total dependence out of guilt and sympathy. This encourages her to remain a victim of her past. Other than canceling the entire wedding, you will never please them, so stop bending over backward. Express sympathy and then ignore their demands. Dear Annie: My wife and I just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. We have two beautiful boys. We've known each other since we were teenagers. I find myself thinking about what type of husband and father I have been. I am a police officer, and with this career comes a list of special stressors. I know that I never have been as romantic as my wife would like. My wife does the majority of housework, laundry and child rearing. While I play with my boys, my wife is doing housework. When I tuck the boys into bed, she is doing the laundry or making lunches for kids. Even though I am not outwardly as affectionate as I should be, not a minute passes without my wanting my wife and kids to be happy, healthy and safe. My wife has put up with all of my shortcomings and the stress that I have surely put on her. I just wanted the chance to say that even though it may look like I don't notice everything she does, I do. I appreciate the love she gives me, even when my hard-nosed attitude makes her ill. Happy anniversary, Charlotte, and I promise to try to be more if you promise to stick around for the rest of my life. — Empty Head, Full Heart Dear Husband: You sound like a keeper. Happy anniversary. Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Creative hints will help boost iced tea’s flavor Dear Readers: If you’re a fan of a cold glass of ICED TEA and are looking for some ways to jazz up your next glass, here are a few hints for you: • Use frozen strawberries instead of ice cubes. • Add a sprig of mint to your drink. • Try orange or lime slices in place of lemon for a different flavor twist. • Add a teaspoon of powdered lemonade mix for a zingy, lemony taste. • I throw a small handful of cinnamon candies into the teapot when I brew tea. Wondering how to store your tea? Keep loose tea and tea

Hints from Heloise Columnist bags in a dark, cool, dry place, away from strong odors. Do not refrigerate. Coffee, however, can be stored for a long time in the refrigerator. For more tea hints and a bunch of flavored coffee recipes, order my Heloise’s Flavored Coffees and Teas pamphlet by sending $3 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (65

cents) envelope to: Heloise/Coffee, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. Another great tea hint? Don’t pour out leftover brewed tea. Freeze it in an ice-cube tray, and add the cubes to your next glass. The tea won’t get watered down! — Heloise LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: After a particularly frustrating day with two small children, I picked up my jacket and car keys to go to the fabric store. My son asked, “Mommy, where are you going?” My answer: “Crazy.” His answer: “Are you taking the car?” My frustration left immediately! — Helen in

Bella Vista, Ark. How precious and hysterical at the same time! When I was small, I’d hear my mother say, “Let me put on my lips” before going out. I thought she went into the bathroom and literally put on lips! — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: Cynthia B. emailed a picture of her two “wonderdogs,” Piper, a beagle, and BeBe, a mini schnauzer. BeBe is napping on top of the doghouse! I wonder how she got up there? Piper is lying on the porch. To see Piper and BeBe, visit www.Heloise.com and click on “Pets” on the left-hand side of the page. — Heloise

ARLO & JANIS

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, July 15, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Look your best at all times, because old flames will pop up out of the woodwork — you can count on it. (Living well is the best revenge.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Stock the fridge, because relatives soon will be camped on your doorstep (if not already). In the month ahead, you can expect to see relatives and family members you haven’t seen for a while. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might be able to finish up old business with siblings and neighbors. However, on a day-to-day basis, your efficiency is suffering due to misplaced papers and confused communication. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The next month is a poor time to start a new business. However, it’s an excellent time to finish up old work related to your earnings. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) People from your past are back in your life again. You also might find things you had previously misplaced, or you might lose new things! VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a wonderful time to do research or find answers if you’re digging for solutions. It’s easy to go back in time now. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) It’s interesting (or maybe not) running into old friends now. Expect to encounter people from your past in the next few weeks. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Although this is a poor time to pitch a new project to a boss, this is a good time to get people to agree to something you’ve been working on already. It’s time to play catch-up. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Any kind of research or study — especially history, the study of the past — will go very well now and in the next several weeks. Travel, on the other hand, will suffer from delays. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Now and for the next few weeks, it’s an excellent time to tie up loose ends regarding inheritances, insurance disputes, taxes, debt and anything to do with shared property. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Ex-partners are back on the scene again. This could be an opportunity for closure, or it could be a real drag. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Your efficiency at work will suffer this month due to confused communication, misplaced paperwork and silly errors. However, it will be easier to finish old work. YOU BORN TODAY You know how to get what you want because you are resourceful and influential. You know how to use material that you acquire for your own benefit as well as the benefit of others. It’s important to appreciate your ability to influence others. In the year ahead, something you’ve been involved with for nine years will diminish or end in order to make room for something new.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, July 14, the 196th day of 2012. There are 170 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 14, 1912, American folk singer-songwriter Woody Guthrie (“This Land Is Your Land”) was born in Okemah, Okla. On this date: In 1881, outlaw William H. Bonney Jr., alias “Billy the Kid,” was shot and killed by Sheriff

Pat Garrett in Fort Sumner, N.M. In 1911, Harry N. Atwood became the first pilot to land an airplane (a Wright Model B biplane) on the grounds of the White House after flying in from Boston he was greeted by President William Howard Taft. In 1933, all German political parties, except the Nazi Party, were outlawed. In 1960, British researcher Jane Goodall arrived at the Gombe Stream Reserve in the Tanganyika Territory (in present-

day Tanzania) to begin her famous study of chimpanzees in the wild. In 1966, eight student nurses were murdered by Richard Speck in a Chicago dormitory. In 1976, Jimmy Carter won the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention in New York. Ten years ago: A gunman tried but failed to assassinate French President Jacques Chirac during a Bastille Day parade.

Cantaloupes return; growers push safety GLENDALE, Colo. (AP) — Nearly a year after the nation’s deadliest foodborne illness outbreak in more than two decades, Colorado cantaloupes are back in supermarkets. Farmers near the town of Rocky Ford are going on the offensive to restore the fruit’s reputation a year after melons from one of the area’s farms caused a nationwide listeria outbreak. They have banded together to trademark Rocky Ford melons and fund $800,000 worth of safety upgrades to prevent future outbreaks, but they must convince buyers that the melons are safe. Last fall’s listeria outbreak traced to Jensen Farms in eastern Colorado was blamed for the deaths of 30 people. It infected 146 people in 28 states with one

of four strains of the disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “When everything happened, after 125 years of growing a safe product, people were so upset,” said Nathan Knapp, a Rocky Ford melon grower who drove to a Denver-area supermarket Friday to see the cantaloupes go on sale. Some farmers who had raised melons for decades decided to stop growing Rocky Fords this year. Only about a third of the land devoted to growing the cantaloupes last year is now growing this year’s crop, according to the USDA’s Farm Service Agency. “Quite a few people just dropped out,” Knapp said. “They had no interest anymore in dealing with the risk.” But Knapp and a few dozen

other farmers in Otero and Crowley counties decided to band together to restore confidence in Rocky Fords, melons with a distinct sweetness thanks to the area’s hot, sunny days and cold nights. First the farmers patented the name Rocky Ford an important step because the source of the outbreak was 90 miles from Rocky Ford but was using the name. Then the farmers overhauled their production practices to restore public confidence. They hired a full-time food safety manager to monitor melon-picking and started paying the seasonal pickers by the hour, not by the amount of cantaloupes picked. The farmers also built a new central packing shed where all Rocky Ford-labeled melons will be washed with soap and a chlo-

rine oxide, then rinsed with well water tested for contamination. After being washed, the melons will be cooled to reduce condensation and then packed into boxes labeled with codes traceable to the fields where the melons were grown. The boxes will be packed with slips that interested shoppers can scan using a smartphone to read about where their melons originated. The Food and Drug Administration said last year that melons at Jensen Farms likely were contaminated in the operation’s packing house. The FDA concluded that dirty water on a floor, and old, hard-to-clean equipment probably were to blame. “We’ve built a brand new system, top to bottom,” said Michael Hirakata, a farmer and head of

the new Rocky Ford Growers Association. “It’s early, but so far it’s working well.” Jensen Farms, located in Holly, Colo., has filed for bankruptcy and isn’t growing melons this year. Lawsuits against Jensen Farms are still pending but may be settled this fall, lawyers said last month. The lawsuits were filed by people who were sickened or who had a family member die after the outbreak. “I would say we are very close,” Jim Markus, an attorney for Jensen Farms, said last month. The bigger challenge facing Colorado melon growers may be restoring public confidence in the cantaloupes. So far, the growers’ investments seem to be paying off.

Vegas chimp caretaker: Wild animals aren’t pets LAS VEGAS (AP) — Poker pro Lee Watkinson put up the money and girlfriend Timmi De Rosa gave her heart to an effort to rescue two adult chimpanzees that had outgrown their youthful cuteness in a northwest Las Vegas neighborhood. “We wanted to build a sanctuary,” Watkinson said Friday. “We found them in a bad situation. People

have them and play with them for five years and then someone has to come and rescue them. That’s what we tried to do. We failed.” On Thursday, after three straight days of stifling 110-degree days, the chimps burst through one door of their outdoor pen, opened a secondary door with two dead bolt latches, and escaped.

For 30 minutes they rumbled through yards and climbed into and out of at least one unoccupied vehicle. The male, Buddy, dented fenders and jumped atop a police car before veering toward a gathering crowd of people. A Las Vegas police officer killed him with three shotgun blasts. Buddy and the female, named C.J., had become

unmanageable for their former owner, who signed part ownership of the animals over to a nonprofit that De Rosa heads, called the Cortland Brandenberg Foundation. The couple spent $100,000 of Watkinson’s winnings from the 2006 World Series of Poker on a sturdy double-fenced enclosure of 800 square feet, about the size of two big-rig trailers, this in the backyard of a home in a horsey neighborhood in unincorporated Clark County. Building codes in the area and Nevada state law allow people to keep exotic animals as pets. Officer Marcus Martin, a Las Vegas police

spokesman, said the veteran officer who shot Buddy thought he was the last defense between the rampaging animal and people gathering to watch. Martin recalled a 2009 attack on a woman who was blinded and disfigured by a chimp at a friend’s home in Stamford, Conn. A U.S. student also suffered critical injuries including head wounds and the loss of a testicle and fingers when he was attacked by two adult chimpanzees after he entered their enclosure last month at a primate sanctuary in South Africa. Animal control officers tranquilized C.J. twice before she succumbed

about an hour later beneath a shade tree in neighbor Tony Paolone’s backyard. She was returned to her enclosure before she regained consciousness. “Typical story. Primates just don’t make good pets,” said Toby Goldman, a veterinarian who previously examined both chimps and was summoned to the scene to help tranquilize C.J. “They’re cute when they’re young. But they become big and aggressive,” he said. “Thankfully, nobody was hurt.” Goldman on Friday stored Buddy’s body — 4feet-7 and 150 pounds with a 43-inch chest — at his nearby Island Pet Hospital. Goldman believes Buddy was about 13 years old. Chimps can live 40 years or more. C.J. wasn’t as tall or heavy as Buddy. “I look at it as he was an angry young adult, full of testosterone,” the veterinarian said. “It was a hot day. That adds another dimension. Everybody gets just that much more agitated.”

Edwards proposes driver-financed drug testing

Earnhart Jr. glad with the National Guard backing

LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Carl Edwards wants drivers to pay for a drug testing system to help avoid mistakes that he said could occur under the program operated by NASCAR that led to the suspension of AJ Allmendinger. “It’s an imperfect world. People are imperfect. Tests are imperfect,” last year’s Sprint Cup runner-up said Friday before qualifying for Sunday’s race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “We need to have our own group that is paid by us, that works for us, to be here in tandem with the NASCAR drug testers and have them test us at the same time. “I don’t think it would be a contentious thing. I think that would remove almost all doubt in any situation of a positive test.” He called NASCAR’s approach “very admirable” in trying to keep the sport clean but “there’s one more layer that we could put on it. … You don’t want to convict a guy of something he didn’t do.” But Brad Keselowski, a teammate of Allmendinger, criticized Edwards’ proposal. “I don’t think we need more politics involved in the sport and that’s what (testing) groups like that bring in,” Keselowski said. He doesn’t think drivers should be allowed to take any supplements, not even “Flintstone” vitamins. Permitting some of

NASCAR driver Carl Edwards runs through the garage area before practice for Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup series auto race Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, N.H. them leaves a gray area of what should and shouldn’t be allowed, he said. “I don’t think there needs to be any committee that approves drugs or supplements or whatever it is,” he said. “I just think you shouldn’t be allowed to take anything. You should just man up and drive the damn race car.” Allmendinger was suspended about 90 minutes before last Saturday night’s race at Daytona International Speedway after his “A”

urine sample taken the previous weekend at Kentucky Speedway came back positive. He has requested that his “B” sample be tested and plans to have his own experts and attorney present when that is done, probably next week. Even if that test is negative, Allmendinger’s future in the sport is in danger, Keselowski said. “It doesn’t make a difference. It’s still a death sentence,” he said. “Within this sport, we rely on spon-

sors and reputation.” Allmendinger, 22nd in the Sprint Cup standings, tested positive for a stimulant, according to a statement Wednesday by his business manager. NASCAR has a policy of not identifying the substance. Dale Earnhardt Jr. and other drivers expressed strong faith in the current testing policy, begun in 2009. “I’m certain that as big and structured an organization as NASCAR is and the agency they have that works with them on

their drug program, they can’t make any mistakes,” Earnhardt said. “They can’t afford to make any mistakes. I assume, although I don’t have any answers or don’t know anything about this particular incident, I have to believe that they’re making the right calls and the right choices.” Sprint Cup points leader Matt Kenseth also supported the system being used but said he was withholding judgment on Allmendinger until the “B” sample results

are known. “They did a lot of things when they put that system in place to make it as fair as they can,” he said. “I believe that NASCAR is going to err on the side of caution. I think they’re going to be pretty darn careful before they do something that could really jeopardize somebody’s career .So I’d have a hard time believing that it’s not pretty rock solid or I don’t think NASCAR would have reacted liked that.” Sam Hornish Jr., replaced Allmendinger in the Daytona race and will drive again on Sunday. “It’s an unfortunate situation for everybody here because it just takes away from the program as a whole because everybody is focused on something that is not productive for us,” he said. Several drivers had questions. Why did NASCAR wait until just before a race to suspend a driver for a test taken nearly a week earlier? “I don’t necessarily understand 100 percent the timing of why that takes so long,” Kevin Harvick said. “It seemed like an odd situation to be right before the race.” And just what is the banned substance found in Allmendinger’s “A” sample? “We’ve got to wait to hear more results. I hope we get a full story,” Jeff Gordon said. “You certainly like to know what it is … what could have caused it.”

LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Dale Earnhardt Jr. is optimistic about his sponsorship relationship with the National Guard despite the U.S. Army’s decision to end its association with another team, StewartHaas Racing, next season. Earnhardt, in second place in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup standings, said Friday he was “disappointed” by the Army’s decision announced last Tuesday. “I feel that our (National Guard) program is really productive,” Earnhardt said before qualifying for Sunday’s race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “Apparently, they don’t feel like theirs was productive.” Ryan Newman, who drives for SHR, attributed the decision to end the sponsorship to “true politics.” Rep. Betty McCollum of Minnesota and Rep. Jack Kingston of Georgia are backing an amendment that would prohibit military sponsorship of sports. McCollum lost a House vote a year ago to end military sponsorships of NASCAR, professional wrestling and fishing, but is trying again to have about $80 million in sponsorship cut from the defense budget. “I hope whatever they do it’s going to be good for the Army,” Newman said. “Their decision is their decision and it’s unfortunate for us. I was a proud representative of the name and the people and the colors and everything else. “It seems that time has come and passed,” he said, “but we are here to win for them this weekend.”

Reminders of scandal figures abound at Penn St. STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — There’s the football building where boys were abused. The bronzed statue of Joe Paterno and the library that’s named after him. The downtown mural depicting the Hall of Fame coach and the ousted ex-president. Reminders of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal and the senior school officials accused of covering it up are all over Penn State’s campus and State College. School officials say

they are still weighing how to deal with the ubiquitous imagery associated with the scandal. “Does the university want to completely wipe the slate clean? If they do, then they probably want to get rid of something like this they can still honor Joe in different way,” said Erik Sandell, 31, of Minneapolis, while visiting the Paterno statue with a friend Friday. “Get rid of this, get rid of that facility.”

The statue outside Beaver Stadium served as a focal point for mourners of the late coach but it has turned into a target for critics angered by former FBI director Louis Freeh’s findings that Paterno and other university administrators concealed allegations against Sandusky in 1998 and 2001 to avoid bad publicity. Some newspaper columnists and former Florida State coach Bobby Bowden have said the

Millar wins Tour stage

Stage winner David Miller rides in the breakaway group during the 12th stage of the Tour de France cycling race over 226 kilometers (140.5 miles) with start in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne and finish in Annonay, France on Friday.

ANNONAY, France (AP) — David Millar, a reformed “ex-doper,” won a stage at the Tour de France on Friday, saying his victory is proof riders can win cleanly. His British compatriot, Bradley Wiggins, is of like mind. Wiggins, who holds the overall lead, is looking to not only win the race when it ends July 22 but win over cycling fans troubled by the sport’s long history with drugs. “I do want to start building bridges to prove that I’m doing this off bread and water. … So if I can be as open and as honest as possible, then hopefully that will go some way to gaining people’s trust,” he said. Millar’s victory and Wiggins’ assertions came exactly 45 years after Tom Simpson, the first Briton to wear yellow, died on the

slopes of the Mont Ventoux after using a lethal mix of amphetamines and alcohol. “It’s particularly poignant that I win the day of this anniversary because I’m an ex-doper; I made mistakes,” Millar said. “It’s a nice kind of full circle that I’ve now won today a clean rider after making the same mistakes that Tommy made.” He added: “I hope that today I’ve shown where cycling has come in the last 45 years, and even in the last five years.” Millar, who rides for the U.S. Garmin-Sharp team, has been cycling’s most vocal critic of doping for years. The 35-year-old Scotsman says he learned hard lessons after “making a mess” of his life through drugs. He won the Tour’s 12th and longest stage Friday

Brees, Saints agree to deal NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Drew Brees and the Saints reached a deal on par with the quarterback’s recordsetting play, giving New Orleans’ fans some news they can celebrate after an offseason rife with turmoil. The team announced Friday that it had agreed to a five-year contract with Brees. A person familiar with the deal said it’s for $100 million, with $60 million guaranteed. The deal will also pay the quarterback $40 million the first year, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because financial details had not been publicly announced. Brees posted a note on his Twitter page reading, “Deal is Done! Love you, Who Dat Nation. See you soon!” He had been tagged as the Saints’ exclusive franchise player and could not negotiate with other teams. Had a deal not been reached, the tender for a quarterback was worth $16.3 million. Brees would have had to play for that amount or hold out for a better one-year deal, which would have left his longterm future in New Orleans uncertain. Brees skipped the Saints’ offseason practices while holding out for his new longterm contract, which now gives him the highest average annual pay ($20 million) in NFL history. Buffalo defensive end Mario Williams also has a $100 million contract, but for six years. Now Brees is set to report for the opening of Saints training camp on July 24, a needed dose of good news for a club whose offseason has been plagued by the bounty scandal that resulted in the season-long suspensions of head coach

Sean Payton and linebacker Jonathan Vilma, among other sanctions. “Congratulations are in order for our organization, our city, Drew and (his wife) Brittany and certainly for (general manager) Mickey Loomis and his staff,” Saints owner Tom Benson said in a written statement. “Now we must turn our focus to getting ready for the start of training camp and to keeping with our goal of being the first team in NFL history to play a Super Bowl on its own field.” New Orleans is hosting the Super Bowl this February. Brees’ teammates quickly took to the social media website Twitter to congratulate him. Safety Malcolm Jenkins wrote “Congrats bro … You’ve changed the game on and off the field!!! No one deserves it more than you … See u on the 24th.” Tight end Jimmy Graham tweeted: “Congrats (@)drewbrees … very happy for you, your family and all the Whodat Nation …. let’s go get the trophy.” Even LSU coach Les Miles chimed in, tweeting: “It’s a great day for New Orleans and the state of Louisiana. Congrats to both Drew Brees and the Saints on reaching a deal. Who Dat!” The contract, which includes a $37 million signing bonus, also gives the Saints more flexibility under the NFL’s salary cap. Because bonuses count against the cap on a prorated basis over the life of the contract $7.4 million per year in Brees’ case the quarterback will cost the club only $10.4 million against the cap in 2012. That gives Loomis nearly $6 million more in wiggle room to manage the entire roster than if Brees had played for the franchise tag.

Busch wins New Hampshire pole LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kyle Busch was the last driver to go in Friday’s Sprint Cup qualifying, and he made the most of the opportunity. Busch posted a lap of 133.417 mph to capture his first pole position of the season for Sunday’s race at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Kasey Kahne, who drove 133.403 mph on the fastest of his two laps, will start alongside Busch. “It was a good lap for us, but I thought I was probably going to be third or fourth,” said Busch, who won the 2006 NASCAR race at Loudon and will be starting on from the front row for the third time

this year. Busch nearly brushed the wall near the end of his qualifying run when “the car slipped right at the last second,” he said. “There’s no mark on the car, so all is good there.” He went on to his ninth career pole. Denny Hamlin was in line for the top position with a lap of 133.399 mph until Kahne pushed him back a spot in the 44-car field. Hamlin had back spasms last week that cause him to skip the Nationwide Series race at Daytona International Speedway and shelved him for practice for the Sprint Cup stop. But he felt better Friday.

Frydell

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 LaTorre said Friday that no decisions had been made “with regard to anything related to Joe Paterno.” Trustees chairwoman Karen Peetz has said the topic of honoring Paterno a rallying cry for alumni and former players angered by how he was fired days after Sandusky was arrested in November remained a sensitive issue that would continue be discussed. Anthony Lubrano was a vocal critic of the Penn State board’s actions in November before winning election as a trustee this spring. Asked Friday if the statue should be taken down, Lubrano said, “I think this board recognizes the contributions of Joe Paterno at Penn State and I think that given that they understand all that he’s done, he will certainly be respected by Penn State.” The most glaring oncampus reminder might be the Mildred and Louis Lasch Football Building, which was the scene of a 2001 allegation in which a graduate assistant coach said he saw Sandusky, the former defensive coordinator, abuse a boy in the shower. Authorities said other attacks occurred in it as well. Lubrano said he had no thoughts on if anything should be done with the building or its locker room. The Lasch family has no qualms about leaving their name on it, a family member said Friday. “You don’t build a building and put your name on it expecting that something like this is going to happen, but we have seen a lot of good things happen in that building … and we expect to see a lot of good, honorable things happen in that building in the future,” said Ken Smukler, a grandson of the Laschs, who helped start Penn State football’s booster club in 1959 and donated $1.7 million to build what is billed as one of the finest collegiate football operations facilities in the nation.

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 • Keeping Promises On Thursday, Jack Blevins promised that the boys 18u singles championship match would be interesting no matter what. Friday, he and Sean Cothran delivered. The two played the match of the tournament, filled with long rallies, tough gets and drama, but in the end Cothran — last year’s boys 16u singles champ and a fouryear Frydell veteran — came back after dropping the first set and closed out a 3-6, 6-3, 6-3 win. “Playing my senior year this year, I learned a lot about closing out matches,” Cothran said. “I’m still not the best at it, but I’m getting there. “I’m proud of the way I came back after losing the first set. I never got down on myself. I kept calm, controlled — especially in the second and third set — focused on my shots and made him move.” And as well as Blevins played, he knew he had a little more left. “I wasn’t feeling my net game today. Really, I wasn’t feeling any of my game,” the Milton-Union Bulldog said. “I really wasn’t getting the depth on my shots I usually do. I wasn’t getting it back to the baseline, and I thought he took advantage. He was doing a great job of keeping me on the baseline.” Whenever he started to slip, though, Blevins cut loose with a huge, booming serve. “That’s just my way of getting pumped up,” he said. “Whether it goes in or not, it helps let out some aggression. There’s nothing like cracking a hard shot. “Honestly, the match could’ve been different if I controlled my anger a little better. That’s just something I’ve got to learn to do.” And while Blevins will be a junior this coming school year, Cothran’s experience helped him out. “Once I was confident with my shot, I knew I had to make him move to win points,” Cothran said. “I believed that if it went to a third set, I’d have the edge. Most of the third sets I’ve

been in this year, I’ve won. “It was a great match, and I think all the experience I got my senior year helped me through.” • Finding Time Katie Tippecanoe’s Stenger always wanted to try her luck in the Frydell, but other obligations kept her from it. “I always wanted to, but band camp has always been in the way,” she said. This year, she finally got her chance — and made the most of it. Stenger — a member of the Red Devils’ first doubles team last season — played a very measured, controlled game and forced her opponent, Troy’s Ivy Smith, into a number of errors, winning the battle of wills in a tight firstset tiebreaker and finishing off the match 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 to win the girls 18u singles division. And while she said she didn’t know whether she’d be playing doubles or singles this fall, the championship doesn’t look bad on the resume. “I don’t know,” she said when asked if the Frydell could be her application for a singles spot. “I’m just trying to get some more practice in before the season. It feels great right now. This is my first time here, and my first win. “There were a couple of times I thought she had me, but I kept pushing through. It was a tough match.” Even after the first set, though, Smith stayed in the match. The mistakes simply cost her her focus. “The unforced errors really got to me,” she said. “They frustrate me a lot.” Still, the tournament run can only help heading into the fall. “It really helps with the season and with tournament play,” Smith — a Frydell veteran — said. “I want to make it to district again, I’ve been two years in a row now and want more. And we want to win the GWOC North this year — we lost it to Greenville last year.” • Not Intimidated Connor Thobe looked across the court at an oppo-

Mason Hagen hits a shot Friday at the Frydell tournament. nent half his size — and was smart enough to be a bit on edge. “Yeah, I was a bit nervous,” the incoming Lehman High School freshman said. “I played against him yesterday in doubles, and they beat us. I knew what he could do.” So he didn’t let Nick Brumbaugh get rolling in the boys 14u singles title match, closing out a 6-0, 6-0 victory in his first-ever summer tournament attempt. “This is my first year playing (in the Frydell), and my first tournament in general,” Thobe said. “Yeah, it definitely feels good.” For 12-year-old Brumbaugh — who also teamed with 10-year-old Nathan Brumbaugh and reached the final match of the boys 18u doubles bracket — it meant a pair of runner-up finishes despite facing some tall — literally — competition. “It felt a little weird, but I wasn’t scared,” he said when asked about playing such older, bigger foes. “Yeah, it was (fun).” And he also plans on building on the experience by coming back next year. “Yeah, I will,” Brumbaugh said. As for Thobe, he has no

plans to retire undefeated from tournament play. “No way,” he said with a laugh. “I plan on trying out for the Lehman team, and I definitely want to come back here next year.” • Gamble Pays Off Ashlyn Hubbard had never heard of the Frydell. But her father decided to make a gamble. “Dad heard about it through an e-mail,” the 12-year-old seventh-grader from Preble Shawnee said. “He thought it would be fun, so he signed me up for it.” He proved to be right. Hubbard made her way through the girls 14u singles bracket with relative ease, finishing things off on Friday with a 6-0, 6-1 victory over Nihar Saksena in the title match to claim her first tournament victory. “Yeah, it was fun,” Hubbard said. “I’m really excited. This is my first win in a tournament.” Hubbard also won a title on Thursday — she teamed up with Karis Hall to go 2-0 in the girls 14u doubles round-robin bracket. She said her experience despite her youth helped her along. “I really wasn’t all that nervous,” Hubbard said. “I’ve

Kerns shoots 74 to Larkin win Ohio Amateur WORTHINGTON, Ohio (AP) — Nathan Kerns admitted he was a little rattled after four-putting for double-bogey on the 16th hole Friday in the final round of the Ohio Amateur. But even with his fourshot lead cut in half, he shook aside any lingering doubts and closed it out with two solid pars. “I never got ahead of myself because anything can happen,” he said. Kerns built a big lead and then subdued his nerves after his one lapse to capture the 106th edition of the biggest amateur prize in the state. The Marshall University senior — he was greeted by a “We are … Marshall!” cheer by his followers after tapping in for par on the 72nd hole — shot a 2-over 74 to finish at 6-under 282. He was asked what the win might mean for him. “It opens a ton of stuff.

First of all, it opens my mind. I know I can play now with just about anybody,” the 21-year-old from Ironton said. “In these Ohio Ams, there are so many good players. To come out on top, I just feel so fortunate.” • John Deere Classic SILVIS, Ill. — Troy Matteson shot a 3-underpar 68 for a one-stroke lead over Jeff Maggert and Brian Harman after two rounds of the John Deere Classic on Friday. Matteson was at 13under 129. Maggert’s bogey-free round of 9-under 62 moved him from 39th place after the first round to a tie for second. He birdied half the holes at TPC Deere Run, including five of his last nine. Harman had a second straight 65, the last two of his seven birdies coming after a 48-minute thunderstorm delay.

Reds ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 inning off Fernando Salas. Aroldis Chapman fanned three in the ninth for his 12th save in 16 chances, repeatedly hitting 101 mph on the radar gun. The Reds drew 40,217 fans their seventh sellout of the season for the opener of a series matching the teams trying to overtake first-place Pittsburgh in the NL Central. Both were on hot stretches coming out of the All-Star break thirdplace St. Louis had won four of five, while secondplace Cincinnati took three straight in San Diego. The Reds pulled it out with three runs in the seventh after starter Mat

Latos had an uncharacteristically quick night. Latos had thrown complete games in two of his last three starts, but managed only five innings and left trailing 2-1. Indians 1, Blue Jays 0 TORONTO — Justin Masterson pitched seven sharp innings, Travis Hafner homered and the Cleveland Indians beat the Toronto Blue Jays 1-0 Friday night. Vinnie Pestano worked the eighth and All-Star closer Chris Perez finished for his 25th save in 27 chances save as the Indians wrapped up their sixth shutout of the season.

■ CONTINUED FROM 15 standout defensive back was doused when Schembechler redshirted him as a freshman, and it didn’t take long for football to become an afterthought. “That was really the first time in my life that I just played one sport, and I got a lot better at that sport,” Larkin said. That sport was baseball, and much to the chagrin of an incredulous Schembechler, Larkin walked away from football, became a two-time AllAmerican who appeared in two College World Series while at Michigan, and rode his considerable talent to heights he never imagined as a kid — election to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. “This is kind of off the charts as far as something that I could even dream about,” said Larkin, who will be inducted a week from Sunday (July 22) along with late Chicago Cubs third baseman Ron Santo. Also to be enshrined in a separate ceremony the day before are former St. Louis Cardinals catcher and longtime broadcaster Tim McCarver, recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award, and Toronto Sun beat writer and columnist Bob Elliott, recipient of the J.G. Taylor Spink Award. Instead of someday playing in the Rose Bowl, Larkin made his major league debut for Cincinnati under player-manager Pete Rose after being picked again by the Reds — this time with the fourth selection in the 1985 draft. Despite playing just 41 games his first year, Larkin finished seventh in the National League Rookie of the Year voting in 1986. And with a host of older players like Eric Davis, Ron Oester, Buddy Bell and Rose to guide him, Larkin’s major league career quickly took off.
