Typhoon hits Taiwan hard A tropical storm inched across northern Taiwan on Thursday after already dumping up to five feet of rain that has flooded farmland, swollen rivers and paralyzed life on much of the densely populated island of 23 million people.

Saola weakened from a typhoon to a tropical storm by late afternoon, but its slow movement and continuing heavy rains raised the prospect of devastating flooding in areas that have absorbed more than 150 centimeters (58 inches) of rain since Tuesday.

Taking their best shots Local police, firefighters square off for charity event

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com Down to the wire, the first “Battle of the Badges” between local police officers and the city of Troy’s fire department was a virtual tie, but the true winners were the spectators and a charity close to each of the participants’ hearts.

TROY The “boys in blue” from local police departments and the Troy Fire Department tested their marksmanship Thursday at the Troy Fish and Game — all for a good cause.

Troy Fire Department’s Brandon Knisley took on the Troy Police Department’s Patrolman Matt Mosier during a one-on-one game called “Sniper Gun” a long-range shootout testing who could clear a group of red balloons without striking the white ones.

“I just wanted to hang out with my friends from the department and shoot for a good cause,” Knisley said after clearing his set of red. Knisley, a former member of the U.S. Army for eight years, said he had his “Army marksmanship” to thank for his clear shots.

Mosier also cleared his targets, and teased Knisley that he had to clear the “hard ones” for Knisley’s swift and smooth shots.

“I left him the easy ones,” Mosier said before ribbing Knisley about his Army service.

“Is there such a thing as ‘Army marksmanship?” Mosier asked with

Mosier, a patrolman for the Troy Police Department for more than nine years, quickly dismissed Knisley’s military branch in favor of his beloved Marine Corps.

“I was in the Marine Corps for four years,” Mosier shared before the first ttarget shooting games began. “It sounded fun and it’s for a good cause.”

Each team had five members to compete in games. Both police and fire department tied in the “Apple Run” a relay event to shoot apples off posts, and tied in the Sniper Gun event. The Troy Fire Department won the event called “Pit Bull” and

the police department members won the “Hide and Seek” target game.

Shooter’s Paradise’s first “Battle of the Badges” may have ended in a tie, but the true winner will be those on the receiving end of the money raised for the Wounded Warriors Project.

“It’s great to be out here and the community that backs us up,” said Rich Workman, owner of Shooter’s Paradise, a training center and retail center. Shooter’s Paradise is celebrating its grand opening today at its location on 542 N. Elm St., Troy.

A South Korean-based manufacturer moved its facility Aug. 1 from Williamsburg Place to a place nearly twice the size.

Located at 701 W. Water St., the new DIPO USA facility will provide more space for inventory. The business manufactures a full line of warmers, ranges and griddles that use induction technology for faster, more efficient heating. Two other products are slated for release later this year.

The office employs four people and will be growing, said President Kurt Wacker, adding that the majority of production will eventually move from Seoul, South Korea, to Troy.

“Troy is going to be our North American production facility,” Wacker said.

“We’re hoping for early next year, as a conservative estimate.”

Chris Tatarian, vice president of sales and engineering, said expanding operations in Troy offers a financial advantage.

“We know that we can assemble products here at a lower cost than what we can import from Korea,” Tatarian said in a press release. “We have found some very experienced and competitive suppliers here in the Troy area that we can use for stainless steel components.”

Troy director of Public Service and Safety Patrick Titterington said the expansion is an indication of city officials’ successful relationship with DIPO and other international businesses.

“This is great news.

We’re very encouraged that yet another company continues to expand in Troy,” Titterington said.

DIPO Induction first set up a small sales office in 2010 after South Korean business officials met several times in Troy.

The company website is DIPOUSA.com.

Annan told reporters that when he accepted the job, “which some called ‘Mission Impossible,’” he wanted to help the international community, led by the U.N. Security Council, find a peaceful solution to the crisis.

The goal was to stop the killings of civilians and human rights abuses, as well as to place Syria on a path toward political transition.

“The severity of the humanitarian costs of the conflict, and the exceptional

threats posed by this crisis to international peace and security, justified the attempts to secure a peaceful transition to a political settlement, however daunting the challenge,” Annan said.

But the former U.N. secretary-general told reporters that he cannot go on when the New York-based, 15-nation Security Council doesn’t fully back him, particularly because of the stalemate between its five veto-wielding members: Russia and China

TC B.O.E. discusses levy backup plan

BY JOHN BADEN For the Troy Daily News editorial@tdnpublishing.com

TIPP CITY

With voting for the emergency tax levy less than a week away, the Tipp City Board of Education made plans to counteract the chances of the levy not passing at a work session on Wednesday night.

The biggest question of the night for the board was if the levy fails, should it be put back on the ballot for another vote in November, and will voters be motivated to vote yes?

on one side, the United States, Britain and France on the other.

“Things fell apart in New York,” he summed up. “The increasing militarization on the ground (in Syria) and the clear lack of unity in the Security Council have fundamentally changed the circumstances for the effective exercise of my role.”

Annan was named the U.N.-Arab League envoy to Syria in February, overseeing a small staff in a secretive office accessible through a makeshift elevator entrance in the sprawling Palais des Nations, the U.N.’s European headquarters in Geneva. He came up with a six-point peace plan to resolve Syria’s crisis, including a cease-fire that was supposed to take effect in mid-April.

But, despite the presence of hundreds of U.N. observers on the ground, the cease-fire never took hold and the violence in Syria has morphed into a civil war. Rights activists say that more than 19,000 people have died since the popular uprising against Assad began in March 2011.

Annan notified U.N. Secretary-General Ban Kimoon and the SecretaryGeneral of the League of Arab States, Nabil El Araby, that he would leave office when his appointment expires Aug. 31.

“The bloodshed continues, most of all because of the Syrian government’s intransigence, and continuing refusal to implement the six-point plan, and also because of the escalating military campaign of the opposition all of which is compounded by the disunity of the international community,” Annan said.

“At a time when we need when the Syrian people desperately need action there continues to be finger-pointing and name-calling in the Security Council.”

On June 30, Annan succeeded in getting the major

Workman said he was pleased with the turnout and with the fun both departments were having at the event, which he hopes becomes an annual tradition.

“We hope it gets bigger and bigger and we’ll have more participation,” Workman said.

They may carry around a gun on their hip all day, yet members of the police department had to step up their game against the Troy Fire Department which had several avid hunters and gun enthusiasts on its side.

West Milton Police Department Ross Grove and Adam Simpson joined Mosier, and Nick Lambert, a member of the Huber Heights Police Department on its team. Shooter’s Paradise owner Jonathon Workman, also a Troy Police Department auxiliary member, was on the police department’s team.

Representing the Troy Fire Department were Knisley, Josh Havenar, Lyle Bolin, Joshua Marchal and Steve Schmitz.

“We are here to support Wounded Warrior Project and we think that’s awesome,” Bolin said. “It sounded like a fun thing to do and it’s for a great cause.”

A firefighter for 22 years, Schmitz said he came out for a good time and a good cause.

“It’s an excellent opportunity to shoot for a good cause,” Schmitz said.

Bolin joked that the fire department didn’t have quite the pressure the police members did at the first “Battle of the Badges.”

“But if we win …” Bolin said with a laugh.

Staring at the Annie Oakley-esque apples on posts, West Milton Police Department’s Adam Simpson joked about the difficulty of the game.

“Do we have enough rounds for that?” Simpson said with a laugh.

Workman’s son Jonathon, an auxiliary member of the Troy Police Department, reminded the county’s first responders of their safety equipment.

“We don’t want the fire department to have to do their jobs and then the police department to have to do theirs!” Jonathon Workman said with a laugh.

No one was hurt and the winner was still left undeclared as of press time, although the competition will provide plenty of ammunition for laughs and camaraderie until the next time they meet at the range.

On the positive side, the levy has had a lot of support from the community. When many volunteers signed up to hand out fliers in previous weeks, half of the volunteers weren’t needed due to the large amount of help.

For those on the other side of the fence or in between, the board made it clear that voting against the levy will have its consequences.

“We can get by with never passing it, but we will not have the quality of education that we have had in Tipp City historically,” Kate Johnsen said.

Without international unity, including the cooperation of regional powers, “it is impossible for me, or anyone, to compel the Syrian government in the first place, and also the opposition, to take the steps necessary to begin a political process. You have to understand: as an envoy, I can’t want peace more than the protagonists, more than the Security Council or the international community for that matter,” he told reporters at an impromptu press conference in Geneva.

Annan did not single out any member of the Security Council by name for criticism during the press conference. But in an op-ed column published by the Financial Times on Thursday, he urged several countries to look beyond their national interests and rivalries to solve the Syrian crisis.

Iran this means they must take concerted efforts to persuade Syria’s leadership to change course and embrace a political transition, realizing the current government has lost all legitimacy,” Annan wrote, adding: “For the U.S., U.K., France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar this means pressing the opposition to embrace a fully inclusive political process that will include communities and institutions currently associated with the government.”

Annan also had harsh words for the Syrian government and what he called its “intransigence.” In what was his strongest statement to date about the Syrian leader, Annan wrote, “It is clear that President Bashar al-Assad must leave office.”

Annan’s announcement coincided with Arab countries dropping a demand that Assad resign in the latest draft of a symbolic U.N. General Assembly resolution that faces a Friday vote in New York. The watereddown resolution further illustrated the international struggle to build an effective diplomatic approach to Syria’s civil war.

The draft resolution was resisted by countries such as Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa who had problems with calling for regime change or sanctions. Russia and China have vetoed stronger proposals on Syria in the Security Council, which, as the most powerful arm of the U.N., can adopt enforce-

able resolutions and impose sanctions.

In the U.S., White House press secretary Jay Carney said Annan’s resignation highlighted the failure of Russia and China to support action against Assad.

In Britain, Prime Minister David Cameron said Annan’s departure was evidence that the current approach has failed and that the U.N. needs to get tougher with Syria.

“We’ve got this appalling bloodshed. I think what we need to do is to ramp things up,” Cameron told Sky News television.

Ban, the U.N. secretarygeneral, said he is discussing possible successors with the Arab League. “I remain convinced that yet more bloodshed is not the answer; each day of it will only make the solution more difficult while bringing deeper suffering to the country and greater peril to the region,” Ban said.

Russian President Vladimir Putin called the events in Syria a “tragedy.”

“Kofi Annan is an honorable man and a brilliant diplomat, so I regret that very much,” he said. “But I hope that the international community will continue efforts to end violence.”

Alexei Pushkov, the head of the foreign affairs committee in the lower house of the Russian parliament, blamed the failure of Annan’s plan on the West.

“Regrettably, the socalled Friends of Syria led by the United States have encouraged the opposition and sought to put pressure only on the Syrian government. That became the reason behind the failure of Annan’s plan,” Pushkov said, according to RIA Novosti.

Kronour said that having the levy up for another vote in November would bring up the possibility of presenting another projected cut list for the following school year, which some argue is a “scare tactic,” he said.

“I would rather run a positive campaign,” Kronour said.

Superintendent Dr. John Kronour said the motivation would be there because if the levy is not passed this year, then the school will go a year without collections, resulting in doubling the amount of cuts the school has already made.

While the board members were confident that the levy will pass, they agreed to have their treasurer, Joseph Smith, ask the county auditor to look at certifying the same 7.95-mil levy and a 3-year, 6.5-mil

Local group promotes buying American goods

BY NATALIE KNOTH Staff Writer nknoth@tdnpublishing.com Troy-Tipp Buy America Group is urging local residents to consider the importance of job growth and American-made products when voting in the upcoming election.

John Cleary, owner/founder of TroyTipp Buy America Group, said his organization endorses a conservative, smallergovernment economic strategy, though it is unaffiliated with any political party.

He declined to comment on which candidate, incumbent Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, fares better in economic policies.

“Conservatives can be found in all parties – Republicans, Democrats and independents,” he said. “We’re not political. We’re definitely all about buying American.”

Cleary is familiar with small business.

He started Clearly Sales Corporation in 1974, working as a government contractor, and he also created Cleary Components Corporation with his wife.

At 81 years old, Cleary still works parttime at both businesses.

MIAMI COUNTY The 23-year-Tipp City resident started Troy-Tipp Buy America Group a couple years ago after noticing that the government was receiving many counterfeit foreign-made parts.

Buying locally made parts and other products helps ensure greater production quality and job stability in the region, he noted. Buy America Group, which has about six small business members, strives to make people more conscious of where goods originate.

Though he pointed to Abbott Laboratories as one example of business growth in Miami County, Cleary said more could be done to bring in more jobs locally and naturally. He added that both political parties are off the mark in terms of jobs.

“The reality is, neither political party, we think, wants to focus on jobs. We think, as small-business people, we should do it ourselves,” Cleary said.

Volunteers needed for hospice, palliative care MIAMI COUNTY — Acclaim Hospice and Palliative Care offers opportunities for caring people to provide comfort and companionship through friendly and supportive visits to patients living in their own homes, nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Miami County.

There are many ways to volunteer including providing pet therapy, spiritual support and supportive music, just to name a few.

‘Bring It On’ is fun, infectious

2305859

NEW YORK (AP) — Custodians at the St. James Theatre should probably check one extra thing these days before locking up for the night: Make sure there aren’t any cheerleaders stuck up in the rafters.

Such is the huge air the performers get in “Bring It On: The Musical” that it might be wise to constantly do a head count.

A lot of theatergoers will share that bouncy feeling when leaving the infectious if not-very-groundbreaking musical comedy that opened Wednesday and is inspired by the cheerleading movie franchise. It has heart likely beating very, very fast surrounding a new stage hybrid: Pro-cheerleading married to old fashioned Broadway.

Like all good pyramids, the base is key and “Bring It On: The Musical” has some of the best in the business anchoring this show, which is making a stop on Broadway following a 13city national tour.

For the music, there’s Tony Award-winner LinManuel Miranda, who spearheaded “In the Heights”; Pulitzer Prizewinner Tom Kitt of “Next to Normal”; and lyricist Amanda Green, who teamed up with Kitt for “High Fidelity.”

An original story by Tony winner Jeff Whitty of “Avenue Q” fame is directed and choreographed by Tony winner Andy Blankenbuehler from “In the Heights.” Toss in a

bunch of cheerleading professionals and we do mean toss and you’ve got a show about young people finding themselves that is sometimes sarcastic, sometimes post-ironic, often hip-hopish and yet also traditionally structured. Nothing too subversive, nothing too twee.

Taylor Louderman plays a lily white cheer queen from Truman High School, who is redistricted into a more urban school district the summer she is supposed to take over the squad as captain. Thrust into the unfamiliar Jackson High School, she reaches out to Danielle, the queen bee there (Adrienne Warren) who runs her own dance crew.

They unite to compete as cheerleaders and take on Truman. They both also learn valuable lessons about being less of a spazzy basket-case. Campbell has a romance, but it’s sort of tacked on.

There are, of course, several nods to the artifice of the plot: “You know what this reminds me of?”

Danielle says at one point.

“Those movies, you know what I’m saying, where the white dude or white lady makes a trip to the scary ‘inner city’ and, you know, fixes dem colored folks right up!” But rather than shake up this cliche, the writers are happy just noting it and then tumbling along. The insane stunts cover up a lack of book innovation.

There are a few artful touches in this conventional story you likely will never look at another leprechaun mascot the same and some strong songs, but not enough of them.

Basically, the show drags a bit until Miranda takes over writing the songs alone. His fish-out-of-water tune “Do Your Own Thing,” his anthemic “It’s All Happening” and his hectic “Cross the Line” toward the end can’t help but make the blood move.

The tragedy, which left 12 people dead, highlights the need for Congress to beat back the gun lobby and reinstitute the federal assault weapons ban that expired in 2004.

At the very least, federal lawmakers ought to outlaw the highcapacity magazines that make it easier to mow down a lot of people very quickly.

The Akron (Ohio) Beacon-Journal on the fiscal cliff: Congress has a plan, or at least has arranged the steps, for dealing with the country’s deficit and debt problems. Come the end of the year, lawmakers will send all of us over a “fiscal cliff.” Among other things, cuts in income, dividend and capital-gains taxes will expire. Defense and domestic spending will be whacked. All told, the approach would reduce the country’s debt by a projected $8 trillion during the next decade, the federal budget in balance by 2016.

A good thing? The word “cliff” points to the likely pain, breaks and bruises.

The Congressional Budget Office reported last week that in 2009, Americans paid the lowest federal tax rate in three decades, an average 17.4 percent. That points to the room available for raising taxes. More, the Obama White House hardly proposes going to excess on higher taxes.

A strong case can be made for an even split of spending reductions and tax increases, including a step the president has eschewed, taxing capital gains as ordinary income. As it is, Republicans have been sharing their fears about defense reductions (part of a deal they brokered). Spare defense, and other priorities, such as education, research and parks, are vulnerable. These factors highlight why a careful balance must be struck, putting first the recovery, anchoring long-term deficit reduction and avoiding the hazards of a fiscal cliff.

DOONESBURY

Hug a nurse when you get a chance: They deserve it There’s nothing better than a sweet welcome home from the airport.

Earlier this week I picked up my sweet, 8 year-old son from his week-long vacation with his paternal grandparents and cousins in Texas.

His cheeks were pink from an amazing week in the sun and he had many stories from their vacation on a lake near San Antonio.

As his father filled me in on their trip, he mentioned that Evan had managed to also bring home a not-so awesome bite he somehow had on his thigh.

Not thinking much of it, I nodded and assured that I would take a look at it in the morning to make sure it wasn’t getting any worse.

But, like all things in Texas, it was big, scary and was wearing a Stetson.

OK, I’m being a tad dramatic, but still I quickly nicknamed this large lesion “Chuck Norris” because it was mean looking and packed an incredible karate chop.

Well, that’s what I thought it would do if it got any worse.

Luckily, my twin sister is an amazing nurse who was visiting the farm at the time. I quickly called and made her come to my home to see what we should do about this Chuck Norris-sized bite that was now inflicting Walker,

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist Texas Ranger fear throughout the homestead.

I don’t do well with any gaping wounds of any sort. I faint at the sight of needles. I cannot watch any television show that ends in CSI or has the word “anatomy” in its title.

I’m a wuss. I’m very aware of this fact and avoided all things medical in my life. Sure I live on a farm, but I assure you dear readers, it is a grain farm. No animals.

We don’t count the ground hogs.

Thankfully, my sister made the call to take my son to the emergency room. We both were on edge (remember, no pins or needles please) as we waited in the holding, I mean, waiting area.

Answering all medical questions, Evan was asked if he was allergic to anything.

“Yes. The sun,” he said matter of fact.

— Elizabeth Bowman-Hereford Troy

The nurse gazed at me as I explained our little family joke about “sun sneezes” when one walks out of a building and the sun tickles the nose. At least he can joke while he’s sick.

As we made our way back to another waiting room, we waited some more. Thankfully again, my sister provided much needed headphones and an Ipad to keep Evan in high spirits as I tried not to stare down “Chuck Norris” and his pending doom.

Finally a white coat arrived.

When a doctor looks at a wound and gets bug-eyed, you know it’s bad.

A few swift moves, my sister was the evil one that had to pin Evan down so the doctors could take a closer look.

I, like the coward I am, hid behind the privacy curtain, avoiding eye contact with all involved. I hate seeing anyone in pain.

Especially those I’ve coaxed to do the dirty work as I peered at my Sister R.N. My kid is the one that has to have nitrous to get his teeth cleaned. No. I’m not kidding.

I’m very blessed that my son is a healthy, chatty little boy. His lungs are in great shape. A male nurse ran in to the waiting room to help assist, but the “Murse” quickly observed that my sister, with her deft, cat-like reflexes, was

firmly in control, he backed off.

She’s that good folks.

After the Chuck Norris was removed from the scene, we waited for discharge papers and other orders. All Evan had to do was take one more dose of medication and we could leave. He must have thought we said “heave.”

Giving us all plenty of warning, which we all ignored, Evan managed to get sick all over my sister and the discharge nurse.

Despite working in a hospital for years, my sister used to boast that not one of her patients ever had managed to muss her scrubs in “that way.” Key phrase in the last sentence is “used to boast.”

Well, her nephew managed to erase that standing record, but with an apology.

“I’m sorry Aunt Sissy, but I tried to tell ya. Told ya so,” he said as he was cleaned up.

As for myself? I was found cowering behind the privacy curtain once again. Hug a nurse. They put up with a lot. Including me, Chuck Norris and well, other scary stuff.

So thank an LPN, RN or any other medical professional. I’d rather have an RN on my side than a Texas Ranger.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Daughter deserves to know the truth Dear Annie: Many years ago, I suspected my ex-husband of sexually abusing our daughter, "Mary."

There was opportunity and some evidence. I didn't actually see anything. In and out of denial, I didn't know what to do, and so I didn't do anything. But it's tormented me.

Several years ago, Mary told me she believed she was sexually abused as a child, but didn't know exactly who the perpetrator was.

Her details were hazy, but the statements she made about the abuse confirmed my suspicion.

Because she was going through a difficult time, I decided to hold off on telling her. That was a big mistake. Mary had just reestablished a relationship with her father after having been estranged for years.

Since then, she has read a book on sexual abuse and is trying to fill in the blanks. At her request, I also read the book. Now she feels she knows who it was, but the person she holds responsible could not possibly be the right one. I believe she is having false memories. But she feels she has worked through it and at times seems to be doing well. Other times, she still seems fragile.

My question is: Should I tell her the truth about her father or let her continue to believe it was the other guy? I have prayed about this. I believe the right thing to do is to tell her the truth, but I don't want to hurt her more. We live in different cities, so getting together with her has been difficult. I don't want to do this over the phone, and I'd rather do it at her place, not mine. Advice? — Anonymous Dear Anonymous: We recognize that some parents, when faced with the possibility that a spouse is abusing their child, become paralyzed with denial. But this was a terrible betrayal of your daughter. You were supposed to protect her. Please don't compound your culpability by withholding information because you can't seem to find the right moment to tell her. Since you aren't sure how to approach this, please contact RAINN (rainn.org) at 1-800-656HOPE (1-800-656-4673), and ask for help. Today.

Dear Annie: My 28-year-old sister has been dating a 36-yearold guy for two years. They have frequent breakups because he's commitment phobic. A month ago, he finally proposed, and she said yes.

Two weeks ago, she was invited to go overseas on a special program. Her fiance doesn't want her to be away for six months. I suggested she postpone the wedding and that her fiance could visit while she's there. My mother and sister were both dismissive of that idea. I said, "People who love and care about each other trust each other. Since he's been postponing the marriage for two years, I doubt another six months would hurt."

My sister was silent, but my mother got mad at me. I think everything I said made sense. Am I wrong? — New York Brother Dear Brother: Your comments were valid, but that's irrelevant.

This isn't your decision, and apparently, both your mother and sister think it's not your business.

Your suggestions have been noted.

Now, we strongly urge you to stay out of it for your own health and safety.

Dear Annie: I saw the poem "The Time Is Now" in your column. My singing partner, Ed, and I learned it from a recording by the great Oklahoma bluegrass duo Delia Bell and Bill Grant. Wanting to include it on our own CD, we researched and learned that the late, great Nashville songwriter Harlan Howard wrote the song and released it in 1978 under the title "Love Me Now." It is our most requested song during bluegrass jam sessions. — Peg Chase, Parma, Idaho Dear Peg Chase: Thanks for the research. We are delighted to give credit where it's due.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Is it possible to ‘kill’ a septic tank system?

Dear Heloise: Recently, you had an excellent segment for septic-tank users in your column.

When we had a new septic tank installed several years ago, the installer cautioned us that excessive use of household antibacterial cleaning products can “kill” a septic tank.

There are times when the use of antibacterial cleaning products is desirable. Most often, just plain soap and water are sufficient for daily cleaning jobs. — Barbara in Iowa Barbara, household antibacterial products may kill some of the bacteria in a septic system, but it depends on how you use the products. Normal daily use in a

Hints from Heloise Columnist household of two to three people probably is all right. Using too much of any cleaning product that kills bacteria is what can cause problems in a septic system.

It’s advisable to be mindful of this when cleaning and doing dishes, as well as laundry. — Heloise

TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: I know that a lot of people like to wrap their toiletries in plastic bags before putting them in their luggage to contain spills. I cut a small section of plastic wrap, place it over the opening of a container and then screw the lid back on. While the plastic bag is good for containing the spill, I still don’t want to lose my shampoo, face wash, etc. This way has never failed, and it keeps me from having to switch from my brand on trips. — Paulina, via email LIPSTICK COLOR Dear Readers: A recent column asked how many lipsticks women have. The number ranged

from one to more than 90! Here are some hints for using lip color: • Make sure your lips are fully moisturized. If they are dry, put on a light layer of colorless lip balm or petroleum jelly to keep them soft.

• Next, outline with a lip pencil and fill in with lip liner. (This is what I do.)

• Put on a coat of matte lipstick.

• Fold a tissue in half, place it in between your lips and lightly press them together to blot.

• For a bit of shine, add a dab of lip gloss.

Press your lips together, and ta-da — a fresh take on your everyday lip! — Heloise

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, Aug. 4, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) While it’s good to feel concern for others, you also have to protect your own self-interests. Don’t martyr yourself for someone else today. (Your judgment might be off.)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) All kinds of group activities will be fun and enthusiastic today. But do guard against excess or overdoing something, which is likely the case.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Others see you as super positive and enthusiastic today. You look like a good role model, and your energy will be contagious to others and lift their spirits.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Travel plans look exciting! You’re seeking adventure and ways to learn new things. Be careful you don’t bite off more than you can chew.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) When making decisions about shared property or how to divide something, be prudent today. It’s easy to go overboard and later regret what you did.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Relations with partners and members of the general public are upbeat and positive today! Everyone is enthusiastic. Everyone wants to have a good time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be careful about agreeing to deadlines or taking on more than you can handle at work today. It’s easy to go overboard trying to please others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is a party day! It’s great for sports, movies, show business and the hospitality industry. Enjoy yourself but don’t do anything you’ll regret later.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Entertain at home today or enjoy family discussions. But do be aware that there is an excessive quality that makes people try to take on too much or promise too much. (Not you, of course.) Ha-ha.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Because you feel so positive and enthusiastic, this is a great day for those of you who sell, market, write, teach, act or promote anything. It’s also an upbeat day for those of you who drive for a living.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) People are enthusiastic today. While this is a good thing, it could cause you to go overboard, financially speaking.

Keep this in mind.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a lovely day to socialize with others. People are in the mood to party and have fun; however, it’s very easy to overdo food and drink. (Oops.)

YOU BORN TODAY You’re an idealist who often ends up guiding others, whether they are a family group, a business or even a political movement.

You are clever and quick and have a powerful physical charisma. This is why you easily radiate your ideals and ideas to others. In your year ahead, partnerships and close friendships will be a strong focus.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, Aug. 3, the 216th day of 2012. There are 150 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 3, 1492, Christopher Columbus set sail from Palos, Spain, on a voyage that took him to the present-day Americas.

On this date: • In 1914, Germany declared war on France at the onset of World War I. • In 1921, baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis refused to reinstate the former Chicago White Sox players impli-

cated in the “Black Sox” scandal, despite their acquittals in a jury trial.

• In 1936, Jesse Owens of the United States won the first of his four gold medals at the Berlin Olympics as he took the 100-meter sprint.

• In 1943, Gen. George S. Patton slapped a private at an army hospital in Sicily, accusing him of cowardice. (Patton was later ordered by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower to apologize for this and a second, similar episode.)

• In 1966, comedian Lenny

Bruce, 40, was found dead in his Los Angeles home.

• In 1981, U.S. air traffic controllers went on strike, despite a warning from President Ronald Reagan they would be fired, which they were.

• Today’s Birthdays: Football Hall-of-Fame coach Marv Levy is 87. Singer Tony Bennett is 86.

Actor Martin Sheen is 72. Lifestyle guru Martha Stewart is 71. Movie director John Landis is 62. Hockey Hall-of-Famer Marcel Dionne is 61.

Actor John C. McGinley is 53. NFL quarterback Tom Brady is 35.

UN: NKorea needs immediate food aid due to flood Tens of thousand homeless after storm

AP

A monther and her family brave winds from the approaching Typhoon Saola in Taipei, Taiwan, Wednesday.

Typhoon soaks Taiwan Up to 5 feet of rain dumped on country TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A tropical storm inched across northern Taiwan on Thursday after already dumping up to five feet of rain that has flooded farmland, swollen rivers and paralyzed life on much of the densely populated island of 23 million people.

Saola weakened from a typhoon to a tropical storm by late afternoon, but its slow movement and continuing heavy rains raised the prospect of devastating flooding in areas that have absorbed more than 150 centimeters (58 inches) of rain since Tuesday.

It has caused five deaths and left two people missing in Taiwan after killing 26 people in the Philippines.

In the day in the northeastern county of Ilan, rescuers used rubber boats and amphibious vehicles to help hundreds escape flooded homes.

Dozens of flights were canceled at Taipei’s main international airport,

where heavy winds destroyed two jetways, and rail transport throughout the island was disrupted. All seven major reservoirs in Taiwan released large quantities of water to prevent flooding.

By nighttime, Saola was centered just off northern Taiwan, moving northwest toward China at 17 kph (10 mph). It had sustained winds of 90 kph (54 mph), gusting to 119 kph (71 mph).

Offices and businesses were closed throughout northern Taiwan. In Taipei, normally busy streets were deserted except for cleanup crews clearing off fallen trees and branches.

The Defense Ministry mobilized 48,000 soldiers to help mitigate the storm’s impact.

Television footage showed acre upon acre of flooded farmland in lowlying coastal areas, punctuated by scenes of raging rivers and roads

blocked by mudslides in the island’s mountainous center.

The typhoon left at least 26 people dead in the Philippines and forced 180,000 to flee their homes. Coast guard and other disaster-response groups rescued 125 people from stricken sea vessels and flooded villages, according to Benito Ramos, who heads the government’s National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council.

Saola was forecast to hit China’s east coast Friday morning south of Typhoon Damrey, which made landfall Thursday night in Jiangsu province. It had sustained winds of 120 kph (75 mph) and was moving northwest at 30 kph (19 mph) and was expected to weaken steadily.

Coastal provinces were moving residents to safety in anticipation of flooding from both storms, the official Xinhua News Agency said.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea needs immediate food assistance after heavy rains killed scores of people and submerged vast swaths of farmland, a U.N. office said Thursday.

That assessment was released by the U.N. resident coordinator’s office in Pyongyang following visits to flood-stricken areas in North Korea earlier this week.

Floods caused by two storm systems last month killed at least 119 people and left tens of thousands homeless, according to the North’s state media.

The United States said it would consider a request for assistance but has not received one, and it was not aware of Pyongyang making such requests to other states.

“If requested, it would be something that that we would carefully evaluate but we are not at that point,” State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell told a news conference in Washington Thursday.

The flooding, which occurred on the heels of a severe drought, renewed concerns about North Korea’s ability to feed its people.

In June, the U.N. said two-thirds of the country’s 24 million people are coping with chronic food shortages.

Thursday’s U.N. report said torrential rains caused severe damage to homes, public buildings, infrastruc-

ture and farms, affecting maize, soybean and rice fields.

The worst-hit areas are Anju city and Songchon County in South Phyongan Province, as well as Chonnae County in Kangwon Province, where residents are in dire need of emergency food aid, it said.

Some 36,000 families in Anju do not have access to clean water; wells are contaminated due to overflow of pit latrines and open drainage, raising the risk of a diarrhea outbreak, the report said.

A city official told The Associated Press earlier this week that it was the worst disaster in Anju’s history.

North Korean officials have asked the U.N. to prioritize the release of emergency supplies, including food and fuel, Martin Nesirky, spokesman for U.N. Secretary-General Ban Kimoon, told reporters Thursday in New York.

Aid groups have donated emergency supplies, including the British-based charity ShelterBox, which dispatched 270 tents to North Korea, according to Howard Chang, a spokesman for Rotary International, who provides funding to ShelterBox. The U.S. government gave $900,000 in relief supplies for North Korea after deadly floods last year.

A subsequent plan this year to send 240,000 tons in food aid in return for nuclear concessions was scuppered when North Korea tested a long-range rocket in April.

Washington said that step undermined confidence that North Korea would stick to its agreement to allow proper monitoring of food distributions.

Troy loss sets up winner-take-all title game Staff Reports

LANCASTER

One more chance.

All or nothing.

Troy Post 43 rallied from a seven-run deficit and cut Pickerington’s lead to 8-7 Thursday night, but Pickerington — coming out of the loser’s bracket — picked up some insurance and held on for an 11-7 victory, forcing a winnertake-all championship game to take place this morning at the

Ohio State Legion Tournament in Lancaster.

Post 43 (40-22) fell behind 8-1 after three innings, simply digging too big a hole to climb out of.

But that didn’t stop the team from trying.

“Every guy on this roster has played hard and scrapped this whole tournament,” Troy Post 43 coach Frosty Brown said. “We got

behind early, but we battled back.”

Troy put up three runs in the top of the fourth thanks to RBI singles by Dylan Cascaden and Garrett Mitchell and a run-scoring error. And in the top of the eighth, a two-out walk to Cascaden set off another threerun rally. Nick Sanders drove Cascaden in with an RBI triple, Mitchell knocked his second RBI single through and Colt Nealeigh tripled to drive in

Jim Furyk chips to the ninth green during the first round of the Bridgestone Invitational golf tournament at Firestone Country Club Thursday in Akron.

run than them.”

Cueto (14-5), who gave up home runs for the first time in more than two months, allowed eight hits and four runs with one walk. He also tied his season high with nine strikeouts in 7 1-3 innings while winning his career-high fifth consecutive start. He was hurt by leaving a couple of breaking balls up, catcher Ryan Hanigan said.

“He pitched well,” Hanigan said. “He wasn’t as dominant as he can be, but he did a good job managing the game.”

Cincinnati opened a 3 game lead over idle Pittsburgh in the NL Central heading into a three-game weekend series

AKRON (AP) — Jim Furyk made a detour to Florida to sit on his back porch and hang out with his kids as he tried to figure out why decent golf was producing ordinary scores. The short break appeared to do him a world of good Thursday in the Bridgestone Invitational.

With seven birdies and a 30foot eagle putt, Furyk had a 7under 63 for his best score ever at Firestone and a two-shot lead over Lee Slattery of England.

The conditions could not have been more ideal with sunshine, heat and very little wind, along with carpet for fairways and smooth greens. It showed in some of the tee shots on the South Course 58 drives of at least 350 yards, and a 427-yarder by Branden Grace of South Africa and mostly in the scoring.

Luke Donald, the world’s No. 1 player, and Masters champion Bubba Watson were among those at 66. Thirty players in the 78man field at this World Golf Championship managed to break par.

Tiger Woods was not among them. He was 3 under after backto-back birdies to start the back nine, but had to lay up with his third shot on the par-5 16th after driving into the trees and ended his round with a three-putt bogey from 25 feet for a 70. It was his second-worst start at Firestone, a course where he has won seven times. The other was a 74 in 2010, his last week without a swing coach.

“I think I averaged about four putts per hole, so it was a great day on the greens,” said Woods, who lost his touch on the greens but at least kept his sarcasm.

Cincinnati Reds’Todd Frazier (21) points to the crowd after he hit a two-run home run off San Diego Padres starting pitcher Ross Ohlendorf in the second inningThursday in Cincinnati. Reds’ Scott Rolen is at left.

Gaining ground 1st-place Reds build 3-game lead before showdown CINCINNATI (AP) — Todd Frazier and the Cincinnati Reds geared up for their big weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates — yes, the Pirates — by pounding the San Diego Padres.

Frazier hit a two-run homer in a six-run second inning and Johnny Cueto overcame a pair of rare long balls to pitch into the eighth inning Thursday, leading the surging Reds to their 13th win in 14 games, 9-4 over the Padres.

“You want to have big innings every game,” Frazier said. “We had the big six-run second, and everybody contributed. We batted around.”

Scott Rolen had three hits, Frazier had three RBIs and Jay Bruce drove in two runs, helping

push the Reds to 23 games over .500 (64-41) for the first time since Sept. 4, 2010.

The Reds scored a combined 35 runs while taking three of four from San Diego and have won 20 of 23. They are 14-3 since All-Star first baseman Joey Votto left the lineup with a knee injury that required surgery and have won two straight since star second baseman Brandon Phillips was sidelined with a strained left calf.

Reds manager Dusty Baker was relieved the offense picked it up.

“We needed it,” he said. “(The Padres) scored a lot of runs.

They came in here swinging the bats good. You do what you need to do to score at least one more

Done deal: Steeler fan buying Browns

By The Associated Press Here’s one to make Cleveland fans shake their heads: A partial owner of the hated Pittsburgh Steelers is buying the Browns.

Randy Lerner has reached a deal to sell the club to Tennessee truck-stop magnate Jimmy Haslam III — a minority stockholder in the rival Steelers.

Lerner will sell 70 percent of the Browns to Haslam now, with the other 30 percent reverting to him four years after the closing

date, a person with knowledge of the sale told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because details have not officially been announced.

“This is a very exciting time for my family and me,” Haslam said through the team.

“To own such a storied franchise as the Cleveland Browns, with its rich tradition and history, is a dream come true. We are committed to keeping the team in Cleveland and seeing it get back to the elite of the NFL something

all Browns fans want and deserve.”

Haslam scheduled a news conference at Browns headquarters for Friday afternoon.

While the papers have been signed, the NFL still must approve the sale. Getting the nod from 24 of the 32 teams is required, and no date has been set for a vote because the sale has not been presented to the league yet.

The person with knowledge of the sale said approval is expected by the end of September.

ESPN reported the sale price was more than $1 billion. For comparison, the Miami Dolphins sold at a value of more than $1 billion in 2009.

The Browns were valued at $977 million last year by Forbes magazine, 20th in the NFL. Asked if he was surprised by the deal, team President Mike Holmgren said: “On one hand, the surprising part was the time of the year. But in this business, I gave up being surprised a long time ago.”

U.S. men hammer Nigeria LONDON (AP) — The U.S. team had scored 100 points by the middle of the third quarter. It was that kind of night for the Americans.

They broke a few records, shattered others. They hardly missed.

Carmelo Anthony scored 37 points, making 10 of 12 3pointers, and the Americans rewrote the Olympic record book with a scintillating shooting performance and 156-73 win Thursday night, an epic blowout that seemed to send a message to the rest of the men’s tournament field.

Anthony set the U.S. Olympic mark for points in a game — in less than three quarters. The U.S. also set the Olympic record for points in a game and points in a half (78). The Americans bettered the U.S. records as well for 3-pointers (26), field goals (59) and field-goal percentage (71).

Incredibly, they eclipsed the 100-point mark with 5 minutes left in the third.

And when Andre Iguodala hit a 3-pointer with 4:37 left, the Americans had surpassed the previous Olympic record of 138 points set by Brazil against Egypt in 1988.

When the record was announced to the mesmerized crowd, all the players seated on the U.S. bench got up and slapped hands with coach Mike Krzyzewski and his coaching staff.

The last group in England with this many records was The Beatles.

“When we get hot, it’s a big problem,” Kobe Bryant said. “So you have all these guys on one team and then all get hot on the same night, it’s tough.”

Bryant scored 16 points — 14 in the first quarter — for the Americans, who scored 49 points in the first and didn’t let up after scoring 78 in the first 20 minutes.

Russell Westbrook finished with 21 points and Kevin Durant had 14 for the U.S., which will play Lithuania on Saturday.

U.S. gymnast Gabrielle Douglas performs on the floor during the artistic gymnastics women’s individual allaround competition at the 2012 Summer Olympics Thursday in London.

The gift of Gabby Douglas wins gold in all-around competition LONDON (AP) — Just 14, Gabby Douglas pleaded with her mother to let her move cross country, certain a new coach could help her get to the Olympics.

Not two years after setting out on her own, Douglas beat Russia’s Viktoria Komova for the all-around title Thursday night, becoming the third straight U.S. athlete to win gymnastics’ biggest prize and the first African-American to do so. It was her second gold medal of the London Games, coming two nights after she and her “Fierce Five” teammates gave the United States its first Olympic title since 1996.

“It feels amazing to be the Olympic champion,” Douglas said.

Puts her in a special category, too.

Mary Lou Retton, Carly Patterson and Nastia Liukin are the only other Americans to win the Olympic allaround gold.

The Americans have been looking for their “next Mary Lou” since she won in 1984, and now they’ve got her in the 16-year-old Douglas. Throw in her adorable “Flying Squirrel” nickname and sweet backstory, and Douglas’ two gold medals certainly won’t be her only riches.

“I haven’t thought about that,” Douglas said. “I just wanted to seize the moment. You have to learn how to

enjoy the moment.”

Her smile alone is enough to dazzle Madison Avenue, and her personality is bigger than she is.

She’s even managed to make Oprah Winfrey cry. Douglas had barely gotten off the medals stand when the talk show maven said on Twitter that she was “so THRILLED for Gabby. Flowing happy tears!!”

Coach Liang Chow told Douglas the gold was hers after an electrifying floor routine, but she had to wait another five minutes until it was official. That’s because Komova, runnerup at last year’s world championships, was still to come.

Komova’s floor routine was impressive, as well. Finished, she stood at the center of the arena staring intently at the scoreboard, fingertips pressed to her lips, teammate Aliya Mustafina rubbing her shoulder. When the final standings flashed, Komova dropped her head and headed to the sidelines, tears falling.

Mustafina and Aly Raisman finished with identical scores of 59.566, but the Russian got the bronze on a tiebreak. The lowest scores for both gymnasts were dropped, and the remaining three were totaled. That gave Mustafina a total of 45.933 and Raisman 45.366.

“I’m still upset because I could have been gold and I didn’t get it,” said Komova, her silver medal buried in the pocket of her warm-up jacket.

Douglas, meanwhile, was grinning ear to ear. Up in the stands, her mother, Natalie Hawkins, embraced her children and then shared a long hug with Missy Parton, whose family took Douglas in after she moved to West Des Moines, Iowa, and now counts her as one of their own.

“She inspires me,” Hawkins said, referring to her champion. “To keep it together in that moment when it meant so much says a lot about her.”

When Douglas first told her mother she wanted to move to train with Chow, who coached Shawn Johnson, Hawkins was deadset against it. A single mother, she couldn’t uproot her family, and there was no way she was going to allow her youngest child go off by herself.

But Douglas’ two older sisters lobbied on her behalf, giving their mother a list of reasons why Gabby should be allowed to move. The only reason to stay: They would miss her.

The move was hard on Douglas, too. Though the Partons treat her like their fifth daughter and are now so close to Hawkins they may as well be related, Douglas missed her family and her dogs.

LONDON (AP) — Kayla Harrison took her spot atop the medal stand, determined not to cry during the national anthem.

She was in tears after one note.

On this day, emotion was the only thing she could not beat.

The United States finally has an Olympic judo champion — a 22year-old from Ohio who was sexually abused by a former coach as a child, became a self-described “teenage punk” who hated everything about her sport and then found a way to turn everything around.

Harrison took the final step in the journey Thursday.

She beat B r i t a i n ’s Gemma Gibbons 2-0 for the g o l d medal in t h e women’s under 78HARRISON kilogram division.

“Kind of just reflecting back on my life.

Everything it’s taken to get here, and everything that I’ve gone through,” Harrison said.

“I’m America’s first gold medalist in judo — and always will be.”

Not only did she end America’s title drought in judo, but she did it in an arena where British flags were flying wildly.

Gibbons was a surprise finalist, spurred by a crowd that chanted her name in every match.

Even that wasn’t enough to take down Harrison.

“Kayla was a great competitor,” Gibbons said.

“She is a very deserved winner.”

With Russian President Vladimir Putin, himself a black belt and the honorary president of the International Judo Federation, and British Prime Minister David Cameron among those in the VIP section, Harrison never ceded control of the final.

She had to rally from behind in her quarterfinal match, then topped world No. 1 Mayra Aguiar of Brazil in the semifinals.

That left only Gibbons.

“It was meant to be,” said Harrison’s coach, Jimmy Pedro, a two-time Olympic bronze medalist.

“This is your destiny, Kayla Harrison. This is your destiny.”

Phelps beats Lochte for gold in 200 IM LONDON (AP) — Michael Phelps spent the day thinking about all the things he’s doing for the final time at the pool. It turns out that included one last win over Ryan Lochte.

Phelps finally got a gold all his own at his final Olympics.

Adding to an already unprecedented medal collection, he claimed his first individual victory of the London Games and handed Lochte a double disappointment on his rival’s final night in the pool Thursday.

Phelps set the tone right from the start with a dominating butterfly leg to become the first male swimmer to win the same individual event at three straight Olympics in the

200-meter individual medley. He claimed his 20th career medal — and 16th gold — in 1 minute, 54.27 seconds, just off his winning time in Beijing but still good enough for gold, ahead of Lochte.

When it was done, there wasn’t that water-pounding celebration we’ve seen so many times from Phelps — just a slight smile as he hung on the lane rope, gazing up at the stands and soaking it all in.

“Going into every call room, I said it’s my last semifinal or my last prelim,” Phelps said, reflecting on a busy day that included a morning swim, then two more races in the evening.

“We’re kind of chalking up all the lasts of certain

things.”

As he powered to the wall, his mom Debbie screamed, “Go! Go! Go!” When Phelps touched first, she dropped her head, kissed her two daughters — both former swimmers — and let the tears flow.

When Phelps stepped on the medal podium — yep, that familiar top rung — his eyes were glassy and he whispered a joke to Lochte, trying to keep the moment light. Then, staring up at the U.S. flag while the national anthem played, Phelps bit his lip and seemed to be struggling to hold back his own tears.

“Once it’s all over, it’s going to really hit me emotionally,” he said. “I know for my mom it’s very emo-

tional. I’m the last Phelps to come through. She’s watched my sisters go through the sport and retire.”

Phelps has never been too revealing with his emotions away from the pool.

But, with just two days to go in his swimming career, there’s a definite chink in the facade.

He’s starting to look as human out of the water as he seems superhuman in it.

“To be able to win the gold medal and be the first to threepeat, it means something,” said Phelps, whose first gold in London was swimming the anchor on the 4x200 freestyle relay. “It’s pretty special and something that I’m very happy for.”

So a farewell games that started as a bit of a disappointment is definitely looking up. He’s now won two golds and two silvers in five races — not the eight golds in China, but a morethan-fitting capper to a brilliant career that still has two more races to go: the 100 butterfly Friday and the 4x100 medley relay Saturday.

Lochte settled for silver in 1:54.90, having split with Phelps in their two head-to-head races in London. Hungary’s Laszlo Cseh took the bronze, well behind the Americans in 1:56.22.

“Ryan and I have had a lot of great races,” Phelps said. “He has brought the best out of me many times.”

NCAA rewriting rules after PSU penalties INDIANAPOLIS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nearly a year after promising to impose harsher sanctions on the most egregious rule-breakers, NCAA leaders endorsed a proposal Thursday that would make schools subject to the same crippling penalties just handed to Penn State.

The measure includes postseason bans of up to four years, fines that could stretch into the millions and suspensions for head coaches. A final vote on the sweeping overhaul will not occur before the board of directorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; October meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coaches come to me and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I feel like a chump. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to do things the right way and I have peers who laugh at me because I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play the game and bend the

rules the way they do,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? board chairman Ed Ray said in a statement released by the NCAA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to stop â&#x20AC;Ś Most coaches are terrific people who love their student-athletes, try to do it the right way, try to have the right values and succeed. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very frustrated. This has got to stop.

I think most coaches are saying itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about time. We want a level playing field.â&#x20AC;?

The plan calls for changing the current two-tiered penalty structure of major and secondary violations to a four-tiered concept, increasing the size of the infractions committee from 10 up to 24 in an effort to speed up the enforcement process and holding coaches individually accountable for

any violations that occur in their program.

But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the penalties that will make school leaders take notice.

A program found to have made a â&#x20AC;&#x153;serious breach of conductâ&#x20AC;? with aggravating circumstances could face postseason bans of two to four years. In addition, the program may have to return money from specific events or a series of events or the amount of gross revenue generated by the sport during the years in which sanctions occurred fines that could cost a school millions of dollars.

If this sounds familiar, it should. After the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal at Penn State, the NCAA barred Penn State

from playing in a bowl game or the college football playoff until after the 2016 season and levied a $60 million fine the rough equivalent to a year of gross revenue from the football program.

Coaches, too, would face new guidelines. They would be presumed responsible for any violations committed by their staffs. If they cannot prove they were unaware, the head coach could be suspended from 10 percent of the season to the full season.

The board also approved a provision that would publicly identify individuals responsible for the violations if there is a finding of lack of institutional control or failure to monitor.

Same olâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Big Ben? Steelersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Roethlisberger sharp despite rotator cuff tear LATROBE, Pa. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tight spiral after tight spiral. Repeated deep balls lofted deftly into the waiting hands of a receiver not breaking stride.

Ben Roethlisberger has looked as sharp as ever during practices throughout much of this Pittsburgh Steelers training camp this summer.

The two-time Super Bowl champion appears anything like a quarterback whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being bothered by a shoulder injury as teammates, coaches and even Big Ben himself can attest to. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He looks like the same old Ben to me, which is a great quarterback,â&#x20AC;? veteran tight end Heath Miller said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothing new on that front.â&#x20AC;?

Roethlisberger revealed on Wednesday that he sustained a slight tear in his right rotator cuff during a game last November. The revelation caused a midafternoon stir at St. Vincent College Wednesday before Roethlisberger later assured, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a serious nonissue, because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just fine.â&#x20AC;?

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looked it, too.

Besides the fact he hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed a full practice at camp and was a full participant all through Organized Team Activities and minicamp earlier this summer, Roethlisbergerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arm has done the talking.

Thursday, most of his better throws during twominute drill work went to Antonio Brown, including a high deep pattern down the right sideline that went for a 38-yard touchdown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking really good,â&#x20AC;? Brown said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;throwing good and just having a good camp overall.â&#x20AC;?

Continuing a trend that developed over the latter stages of last season, Brown has grown into Roethlisbergerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go-to receiver. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s obvious during practice, though Pro Bowl receiver Mike Wallaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holdout also contributes to that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m learning where he wants me to go,â&#x20AC;? Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And with him, I know that if I get there, the ball will be there for me.â&#x20AC;?

The other starting receiver, Emmanuel Sanders, concurs. He

believes Roethlisberger â&#x20AC;&#x153;definitelyâ&#x20AC;? is having a strong training camp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All quarterbacks usually come into their prime around 30 years old,â&#x20AC;?

Sanders said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I feel like Ben is starting to come into his prime with his arm strength and understanding and everything.â&#x20AC;?

Roethlisberger, who turned 30 in March, said Wednesday that getting older combined with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;soreâ&#x20AC;? shoulder has caused him to stop making repeated unnecessary throws

before practice or during more informal situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those ones where the doctor says â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You know what, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just avoid throwing too much in walkthroughs and when you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to throw, and try not to land on it,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Roethlisberger said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It happened in the Baltimore game (last Nov. 6). It just got extended the wrong way. It was never an issue of (pain). Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve dealt with a lot of pain, and it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to take me out.â&#x20AC;?

In the seven games he played after the injury, Roethlisberger had 1,734 passing yards, seven touchdowns and seven interceptions. He was also bothered by a badly sprained left ankle during much of that stretch, an injury that caused him to miss a win against St. Louis on Christmas Eve. Despite sitting that game, Roethlisberger finished with 4,077 yards and 21 touchdowns. That was his second-best season in the former and third-most in the latter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see any dropoff in my play throwing the ball (last season),â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen it yet (this summer).â&#x20AC;?

The Steelers (No. 7 in the AP Pro32) have a new offensive coordinator in Todd Haley this season, and Roethlisberger said he is warming to picking up on the new playbook after a period of adjustment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just really excited about working with Ben,â&#x20AC;?

Haley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re off to a real good start. When you have a guy thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a proven winner that knows how to move the football up and down the field and get everybody in place, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a huge asset.â&#x20AC;?

was called for a run-scoring balk before leaving after just 1 2-3 innings, the shortest outing by a San Diego starter this season.

Rodriguez, a former Reds minor leaguer who also has played in independent leagues, smacked a 1-2 pitch 416 feet into the left field seats for the first home run allowed by Cueto in 80 innings the longest stretch in the majors this season over 11 starts since Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Todd Helton homered on May 25 in Cincinnati. The homer was the first by a right-hander allowed by Cueto since Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ryan Zimmerman hit one on Aug. 17, 2011, a span of 169 innings.

Chase Headley cut Cincinnatiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead in half with a two-run single later in the inning, and Cameron Maybin added his sixth homer, a 423-foot solo shot to left with one out in the fourth inning. But the Reds increased their lead to 8-4 on RBI singles by Rolen and Zack Cozart in the bottom of the inning.

â&#x2013; CONTINUED FROM 15 between the two teams that is scheduled to start tonight.

San Diego catcher Eddy Rodriguez enjoyed a memorable major league debut, hitting a home run in his first plate appearance, but the Padres couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t avoid their third straight loss and fifth in their last six games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was amazing,â&#x20AC;?

Rodriguez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was everything, more than I expected. The goal at the end is to get a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; but it was a great experience, something that I will remember for the rest of my life.â&#x20AC;?

The Reds chased Padres starter Ross Ohlendorf while sending 12 batters to the plate during a six-hit, six-run second inning.

Rolen started it with an infield hit. Frazier followed with his 13th homer and second in three games, a 408-foot drive into the left field seats.

Hanigan added an RBI double and Bruce had a bases-loaded, two-run single. Ohlendorf (3-2) also

â&#x2013; Legion Baseball

Post 43 â&#x2013; CONTINUED FROM 15 Blei throwing four-plus innings of quality relief and Reid Ferrell pitching a scoreless seventh to keep Troy in the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of pressure to put on a 16-year-old (Langdon), pitching in the state title game. And he handled it well,â&#x20AC;? Brown

said.

But Pickerington (55-4) put up three more runs in the bottom of the eighth to seal the game and force a decisive title game today at 10 a.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winner-take-all now,â&#x20AC;? Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But win or lose, this is how baseball is supposed to be played.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x2013; CONTINUED FROM 15 Since missing out on a chance to win the U.S. Open, Furyk has tied for 34th in two tournaments and missed two cuts, including last week in Canada. For a guy who is 15th in the Ryder Cup standings even a win this week would not make him eligible for the U.S. team this was no time to be stuck in neutral.

So when he had another weekend off after rounds of 70-70 at the Canadian Open, he flew home for three days. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think more than anything I needed a little time to clear my head,â&#x20AC;? Furyk said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t anything that was going wrong, (but) why I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t playing better. I just felt like I needed to come in here and quit concentrating on trying to be so mechanically sound and just go play some golf and try to score and get the ball in the hole a little bit.

It worked today. I did a lot better job of scoring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a while since I made seven birdies and an eagle in a round,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So it was a lot of fun.â&#x20AC;?

The average score was 70.33, which is on the low side for Firestone.

Defending champion Adam Scott, in his first tournament since making four straight bogeys to lose the British Open, had a four-putt from just inside 10 feet early in his round and shot 71. So did Phil Mickelson, while British Open champion Ernie Els had a 73.

This is a course where players can smash it off the tee, and most of them did.

Watson said he hit driver on all but three of the long holes.

When he was asked how many fairways he missed, Watson replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know.

I shot 4 under. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all I know.â&#x20AC;?

That ultimately was all that mattered.

Grace, who along with Woods is the only player with three wins this year, crushed a tee shot into the speed slot on the 656-yard 16th hole that left him only 222 yards to the hole. One problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a reasonable opportunity,â&#x20AC;? Grace said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I was right between clubs. I could either thump a 3-iron or hit my rescue, and going just over the back of that green and chipping back is not the best.â&#x20AC;?
