Defend yourself against virus While part of the country is in the midst of the largest West Nile virus outbreak in a decade, Miami County residents should not feel helpless to defend against the illness. Miami County Health Commissioner Chris Cook urges people to take the steps necessary to protect themselves.

“Public Health is keeping this message simple — do four things to help keep you and your family safe,” Cook said.

Tax hikes are coming: who has to pay?

Who gets thumped by higher taxes in President Barack Obama’s health care law? The wealthiest 2 percent of Americans will take the biggest hit, starting next year. And the pain will be shared by some who aren’t so well off people swept up in a hodgepodge of smaller tax changes that will help finance health coverage for millions in need. See Page 8.

Indians fall to Yankees, 4-2 Manager Manny Acta is trying to find positives for the reeling Cleveland Indians. That’s what the season has come to for Acta. Cleveland’s extended tailspin continued with Sunday’s 4-2 loss to the New York Yankees. “We pitched OK, which made for a decent ballgame,” Acta said. “That makes it easier to take then when you’re trailing by a ton of runs and it sucks the energy out of everybody.”

Couple spend summer exploring Ohio’s natural areas

Just before taking a planned camping trip to Lake Erie in mid-June, the couple read in the newspaper about a Natural Treasures of Ohio challenge sponsored by The Nature Conservancy of Ohio and Honda of America Mfg. Inc. The contest encouraged Ohioans to visit 30 natural areas around the state, take photographs of themselves at designated landmarks and submit them for a chance to win a 2012 Honda Insight Hybrid.

“Four or five of the sites were right up around where we were going camping,” Joel recalled, so the couple decided to visit those spots while in northwest Ohio.

Their experiences at those first locations convinced the couple to continue the challenge.

KEY WEST, Fla. (AP) — Tropical Storm Isaac barely stirred Florida Keys residents from their fabled nonchalance Sunday, while the Gulf Coast braced for the possibility that the sprawling storm will strengthen into a dangerous hurricane by the time it makes landfall there.

It was on course to strike land on seventh anniversary of the Hurricane Katrina, a powerful storm that crippled New Orleans and the Gulf Coast and became a symbol of government ineptitude.

Forecasters expected Isaac to pass the Keys late Sunday before turning northwest and striking as a Category 2 hurricane somewhere between New Orleans and the Florida Panhandle on Wednesday.

The National Hurricane Center issued a hurricane warning for a large swath of the northern Gulf Coast from east of Morgan City, La. which includes the New Orleans area to Destin, Fla. A Category 2 hurricane has sustained winds of between 96 and 110 mph (154 to 177 kph).

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal called a state of emergency and suggested that people begin leaving low-lying parts of the state. He also said he may skip a speaking engagement later this week at the Republican National Convention in Tampa unless the threat to his state subsides. Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley has also canceled his trip to the convention because of Isaac.

Elected leaders’ vigilance toward tropical storms has heightened in the seven years since Katrina struck. Criticism was leveled at officials reaching all the way to the White House over what was seen as the federal government’s slow and bungled response to the storm that killed 1,800.

An emergency declaration was also issued in Mississippi by Gov. Phil Bryant amid concerns of storm surge threatening low-lying areas.

Oil companies began evacuating workers from offshore oil rigs and cutting production in advance of Isaac.

The storm was on a course to pass west of Tampa, but it had already disrupted the Republicans’ schedule

Series of quakes rattle Southern California

SAN DIEGO (AP) Dozens of small to moderate earthquakes rattled Southern California on Sunday, shaking an area from rural Imperial County to the San Diego coast and north into the OUTLOOK Coachella Valley.

The largest quake, magnitude 5.3, struck at 12:31 Today Showers p.m. about three miles High: 82° north-northwest of the Low: 68° small Imperial County farming town of Brawley, Tuesday according to Paul Caruso, a Pleasant geophysicist with the U.S. High: 82° Geological Survey.

“It felt like there was quake every 15 minutes.

miles north of El Centro.

Some shaking was felt along the San Diego County coast in Del Mar, some 120 miles from the epicenter, as well as in the Coachella Valley, southern Orange County and parts of northern Mexico.

USGS seismologist Lucy Jones said earthquake swarms are characteristic of the region, known as the Brawley Seismic Zone. “The area sees lots of events at once, with many close to the largest magnitude, rather than one main shock with several much smaller aftershocks,� Jones said.

The last major swarm was in 2005, following a magnitude-5.1 quake, she said. Scientists weren’t yet sure what fault Sunday’s quake cluster was on, but it was near the 800-mile San Andreas Fault, Caruso said.

there because of the likelihood of heavy rain and strong winds that extended more than 200 miles from its center.

Even before reaching hurricane strength, Isaac caused considerable inconvenience, with more than 550 flights canceled at Miami International Airport and about 150 from Fort Lauderdale’s airport.

There were scattered power outages from Key West to Fort Lauderdale affecting more than 16,000 customers, and flooding occurred in low-lying areas.

Gov. Rick Scott said at a news conference Sunday evening that only minor damage was reported from Isaac.

Wind gusts of 60 mph were reported as far north as Pompano Beach, north of Fort Lauderdale. But while officials urged residents in

In Key West, Emalyn Mercer rode her bike while decked out with a snorkel and mask, inflatable arm bands and a paddle, just for a laugh. She rode with Kelly Friend, who wore a wet suit, dive cap and lobster gloves. “We’re just going for a drink,� Mercer said. “With the ones that are brave enough like us,�

Their grown children — Kristen, 27, of Chicago, Brandon 26, of suburban Philadelphia, and Adam, 20, a student at The Ohio State University — accompanied them on some of their adventures, they said.

Their treasure hunt definitely was worthwhile, Joel said. “Even some of the places we’d been going to for many years, we didn’t realize the things that were in the park,â€? he said, noting there is a waterfall at Englewood Reserve the couple didn’t know existed until discovering it this summer as part of the treasure hunt. “It sure showed us a lot of parks we had no idea were in Ohio, and such diverse parks,â€? said Sandra, who is the bookkeeper and administrative assistant at St. John the Baptist Church in Tipp City. “It’s amazing that this stuff is in our own backyard, almost.â€? • More about the Natural Treasures of Ohio challenge may be found at nature.org/naturaltreasuresohio or on Facebook at facebook.com/ohionatureconservancy.

for a walk and checked out boats rocking along the waterfront. “Just a summer day in Key West,� Harris said.

That kind of ho-hum attitude extended farther up the coast. Edwin Reeder swung by a gas station in Miami Shores not for fuel, but drinks and snacks. “This isn’t a storm,� he said. “It’s a rain storm.�

With a laugh, Reeder said he has not stocked up aside from buying dog and cat food.

The forecast wasn’t funny, however. Isaac was expected to draw significant strength from the warm, open waters of the Gulf of Mexico, but there remained much uncertainty about its path.

The Gulf Coast hasn’t been hit by a hurricane since 2008, when Dolly, Ike and Gustav all struck the region. Florida, meanwhile, has been hurricane-free

Montgomery County; and Clifton Gorge in Greene County.

By the end of July, the couple had visited 29 of the 30 listed sites. “We didn’t go to Kelleys Island, but we had been there before,� Sandra explained.

Of the places they visited, “my favorite was Buzzardroost (Rock Preserve),� Sandra said. “It was in southeast Ohio, part of the Appalachian Trail. “It was a really nice hike, and a gorgeous view when you got to the top. You were looking down at the buzzards,� she said. “It was quite a hike, but it was just gorgeous.�

Joel, who works at Hobart Corp. in Troy, said it is hard to pick a favorite among the places they visited, noting the diversity of the sites makes them hard to compare. Some were busy parks, others were quiet, deserted places that allowed for contemplation, he said. “I think the Buzzardroost was probably my favorite,� he said, echoing his wife’s choice, but added, “It’s hard to pick, because

since it was struck four times each in 2004 and 2005.

Hurricane center forecasters are uncertain of the storm’s path because two of their best computer models now track the storm on opposite sides of a broad cone. One model has Isaac going well west and the other well east. For the moment, the predicted track goes up the middle.

Florida Panhandle residents stocked up on water and gasoline, and at least one Pensacola store ran out of flashlight models and C and D batteries. Scott Reynolds, who lives near the water in Gulf Breeze, filled his car trunk with several cases of water, dozens of power bars and ramen noodles. “Cigarettes I’m stocking up on those too,� he said.

Forecasters stressed that the storm’s exact location remained extremely uncertain a fact not lost on Tony Varnado as he cut sheets of plywood to board up his family’s beach home on Pensacola Beach. With the storm’s projected path creeping farther to the west, the Mandeville, La., resident joked he might be boarding up the wrong house. “I’m going to head back that way as soon as we are done here to make sure we are prepared if hits there,� he said.

Before reaching Florida, Isaac was blamed for seven deaths in Haiti and two more in the Dominican Republic, and downed trees and power lines in Cuba. It bore down on the Keys two days after the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Andrew, which caused more than $25 billion in damage just north of the island chain.

In Tampa, convention officials said they would convene briefly on Monday, then recess until Tuesday afternoon, when the storm was expected to have passed. Scott canceled his plans to attend convention events on Sunday and Monday.

At Miami International Airport, more than 550 flights Sunday were canceled. Inside the American Airlines terminal, people craned for a look out of one of the doors as a particularly strong band of Isaac began lashing the airport with strong rain and high wind.

Word of the Week insult — to treat or speak to insolently or with contemptuous rudeness

Newspaper Knowledge The word "bully" used to mean the total opposite of what it means now?

Five-hundred years ago, it meant friend, family member, or sweetheart. The root of the word comes from the Dutch boel, meaning lover or brother. Big change!

Important If the bullying is physical or violent, you can ask the adult to whom you speak NOT to reveal your name.

Do NOT keep it inside. Do NOT plan revenge against the bully or take matters into your own hands.

Welcome back to school!

Bully. What does the word make you think of?

For some people, it's that girl at school who always makes fun of them. For others, it's the biggest guy in the neighborhood who's always trying to beat them up or take their things.

Sometimes "bully" means a whole group of kids, ganging up on someone else. No matter what situation or form it comes in, bullying can make you feel depressed, hurt, and alone. It can keep you from enjoying the activities and places that are part of your life.

Bullying happens

everywhere, whether it's your town or Paris, France.

It happens all the time, and it's happened since forever. Because it's so common, many adults think bullying is just a normal part of growing up.

You've probably heard parents or teachers say things like: "Don't let it get to you" or "You just have to be tougher."

But why should something that can make a person so miserable have to be part of growing up?

The answer is, it doesn't!

Each and every one of us has the right to feel safe in our lives and good about

Prevent Bullying • Don't walk alone. Travel with at least one other person whenever you can.

• Avoid places where bullying happens. Take a different route to and from school. Leave a little earlier or later to avoid the bully.

• Sit near the bus driver on the school bus or walk with a teacher to classes.

• Don't bring expensive things or money to school.

• Label your belongings with permanent marker in case they get stolen.

• Avoid unsupervised areas of the school and situations where you are by yourself. Make sure you're not alone in the locker room or bathroom.

• Act confident. Hold your head up, stand up straight, and make eye contact.

• Brainstorm bully comebacks ahead of time, and practice them in the mirror. That way you'll have them ready when you need them!

ourselves. Use the following information to learn all the basics of dealing with bullies.

Let's start by looking at the different kinds of bullying: Physical bullying means: • Hitting, kicking, or pushing someone...or even just threatening to do it • Stealing, hiding or ruining someone's things • Making someone do things he or she doesn't want to do Verbal bullying means: • Name calling • Teasing • Insulting Relationship bullying means: • Refusing to talk to someone • Spreading lies or rumors about someone • Making someone do things he or she doesn't want to do

What do all these things have in common?

They're examples of ways one person can make another person feel hurt, afraid, or uncomfortable.

When these are done to someone more than once, and usually over and over again for a long period of time, that's bullying.

The reason why one kid would want to bully another kid is this: when you make someone feel bad, you gain power over him or her. Power makes people feel like they're better than another person, and then that makes them feel really good about themselves. Power also makes you stand out from the crowd. It's a way to get attention from other kids, and even from adults.

Let’s start this 2012-13 school year right. Let’s be kind to one another and don’t bully.

See if you can find and circle the words listed. They are hidden in the puzzle forward and down.

Think about words that can be hurtful and words that can be friendly.

Below are two buckets. Fill the buckets with as many words as possible which you think can be hurtful or friendly.

Which bucket can you fill up to the top?

Relax in a Venetian gondola? Ride in a double-decker bus? See the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and the marvelous paintings of the Louvre? Run with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain? Listen to bagpipes in Scotland?

If you haven’t guessed yet, we’re in Europe, sixth of the seven continents in size and population but among the most influential historically.

Despite its relatively small size, Europe has been the birthplace of many world social movements, political movements, and economic systems.

It stretches from Portugal in the west to Russia’s

Ural Mountains in the east, to the fjords of Norway in the north, and south to Cape Tarifa, Spain.

The ethnic diversity of Europe is reflected in the large number of small countries and other political units. That number increased even more with the collapse of the Eastern European Communist regimes, particularly the Soviet Union: The Ukraine, Moldova, and Belarus became independent countries, Czechoslovakia divided into Slovakia and the Czech Republic, and several small countries have struggled to form from what was Yugoslavia. There are 43 countries in Europe, plus part of Russia, part of Turkey, and

several dependent territories.

Many languages are spoken in Europe, including English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian. Celtic is spoken in Brittany in France and in western parts of Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. Slavic languages such as Russian, Polish, and Serbo-Croatian are spoken in eastern Europe.

Thanks to westerly winds that sweep across the relatively warm waters of the North Atlantic Drift and carry warmed air across the continent, Europe’s climate is milder than that of areas of the United States at the same latitudes.

PERSPECTIVE

ANALYSIS

Akin row reveals the GOP’s social-fiscal rift TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Every now and then, an event awakens the ever-slumbering tensions between the Republican Party’s two core wings: social conservatives and corporate interests.

A Missouri congressman’s comment about rape and pregnancy was one such moment, and it came just as Republicans were hoping for a united front at their convention to nominate Mitt Romney for president.

A full-blown rupture such as the one at the 1992 convention, when a defeated candidate declared a national “culture war” seems unlikely. But even a modest squabble between key party factions might raise concerns in a tight presidential race.

Romney joined other mainstream Republicans in denouncing the Aug. 19 remarks by Rep. Todd Akin, the party’s Senate nominee in Missouri. Akin said rape victims can generally avoid pregnancy because “if it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

Romney called Akin’s comments “offensive and wrong.” He unsuccessfully urged Akin to quit the Senate race.

Like many other top Republicans, Romney stopped short of criticizing Akin’s stand on abortion, as opposed to his comments about rape and conception. Akin opposes abortion in all cases, including rape.

Romney would allow abortions in instances of rape and incest. He showed no interest, however, in picking a fight with his party’s most ardent abortion opponents, a crucial source of GOP votes and volunteers. And he downplayed the fact that his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, has often joined Akin in anti-abortion measures, including some that sought to differentiate between forcible and nonforcible rapes.

It’s hardly surprising that Romney, who’s running mainly on economic issues, is trying to maintain a quiet balance between fiscal and social conservatives. The Republican Party cannot win national elections without an alliance between the two groups.

Corporate titans know they must hold hands with anti-abortion crusaders to elect politicians who will keep government regulations and taxes low. Evangelicals and other social conservatives realize they must join ranks with business executives even if they would never mingle at a country club to elect champions of public prayer, abortion limits and so on.

Romney, who made a fortune heading the private equity firm Bain Capital, comes from the corporate wing. He seems less convincing when talking about the social issues that animate many on the right.

As Massachusetts governor, Romney supported abortion rights, gun control and gay rights. He abandoned those positions as he prepared to run for president in 2008, but many “movement conservatives” remain wary of him. Romney had to struggle for their support during the Republican primaries, when Newt Gingrich briefly depicted him as a “vulture capitalist.” Romney’s most persistent rival was Rick Santorum, a hero to anti-abortion activists and homeschoolers.

Now that the primaries are over, and unaffiliated voters are crucial this fall, Republican leaders would rather keep the abortion debate to a simmer, not a boil.

Last week, the party’s platform committee approved a provision that backs the “Human Life Amendment,” a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban abortion, with no exceptions for rape or incest. The Republican platforms in 2004 and 2008 did the same.

That might surprise some GOP-leaning centrists, who rarely hear Republican presidents or congressional leaders make loud, full-bore pushes to outlaw abortion.

“Ronald Reagan used to talk about the party’s three-legged stool: fiscal conservatives, social conservatives and national-security conservatives,” said Dan Schnur, a former Republican adviser who now teaches political science at the University of Southern California.

“At best, it’s a three-legged stool. At worst, it’s three scorpions in a bottle.”

The party’s factions usually coexist peacefully, he said, but “the Akin matter makes it a lot harder.”

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Columbus Dispatch, Aug. 19 Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted has struck a fair compromise by standardizing early-voting hours throughout the state.

According to Husted’s directive, issued Wednesday, all 88 counties must provide a place for early, in-person voting from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the first three weeks of the five-week early-voting period, and from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. in the final two weeks.

None can offer Saturday or Sunday hours.

Democrats had been protesting because in many large, urban counties, which tend to lean Democratic, boards of election were deadlocked over extended hours for in-person early voting, while in smaller, more Republican-leaning counties, the bipartisan boards agreed to stay open for voters into evenings and weekends.

Husted is the tie-breaking vote for the county election boards, and he had said ahead of time that he would side with keeping normal business hours.

Democrats aren’t satisfied with Husted’s current solution, because the hours he mandated are far fewer than what was offered in many counties in 2008.

Then, crowds lined up to vote on weekends, especially the final weekend before the election.

But those who are dissatisfied with this compromise take for granted that, thanks to a greatly liberalized voting law, Ohioans now have an enormous window of opportunity during which to vote.

DOONESBURY

Armstrong will be sadly missed Troy Troy Neil Armstrong’s death over the weekend probably didn’t make a big impression on a lot of people.

If you weren’t around in 1969 when Armstrong became the first man to step onto the surface of the moon, you can’t understand what a huge thing that was.

I was 13 years old at the time and had grown up with the constant threat of nuclear war hanging over my little head. I remember first grade at St. Pat’s when one of the first things was putting us through a nuclear bomb drill. We all got on our hands and knees and crawled under our desks so that when the Russians dropped the big one on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, we could increase our chances of survival. I didn’t feel real confident that I would avoid being vaporized or that crawling under my desk would help when the building fell on my head, but questioning a nun about those things was only slightly less dangerous than a nuclear bomb, so I kept my mouth shut and stuffed myself under the desk.

I also remember my parents telling me not to eat snow because the nasty Russians always were testing nuclear bombs in the

David Lindeman Troy Daily News Columnist atmosphere and the radiation was carried by the wind into our clouds and got trapped in the snow and if I ate it I could get some unknown disease. I ate the snow anyway. It turns out it was much less dangerous than the cigarettes they smoked or the processed food I’ve been eating for 50-some years. We didn’t need the Russians to kill us, we could do it pretty well ourselves!

This was the atmosphere we lived in when we got into the race to the moon. We all knew if the Russians got there first, they would build some kind of military base from which they could rain bombs and death rays down on us. If we got there first, on the other hand, all would be peace and light and

maybe there would be a Disneyland up there on the moon.

You have to understand I was only 13.

So when Armstrong and his friends strapped themselves in on top of a giant explosive device and were hurled into outer space, I thought it was just about the biggest deal of my life, other than maybe the Reds winning the pennant in 1961 or the Dayton Flyers going to the Final Four in 1967.

Everyone watched the event on television and we were thrilled when Armstrong stepped out of his spacecraft onto the moon. He was a real hero among heroes and when he came back he didn’t go Hollywood and he wasn’t investigated for being on illegal drugs and he didn’t sell his name to promote questionable products. What a guy!

He was the point man for a remarkable achievement. I won’t say those were the good old days, because you still had Vietnam and riots in the streets and all kinds of uncertainty and turmoil, but in a way that made Armstrong even more important. No matter what else was going on, we still had fearless Neil and the moon.

Of course, it did turn out to be a

bit of an anticlimax. Once we got to the moon, we figured out pretty quickly there really wasn’t much reason to go there. We got a few rocks, Tang and Velcro out of the deal and the astronauts got to knock a few golf balls around up there, but other than that we pretty much went on to other things.

We never did quite figure out what to do next and the Russians stopped competing so it took all the fun out of it.

But that doesn’t diminish the impact of Armstrong’s famous journey. It was, and still is, a true American success story: farm boy from Ohio dreams of the stars, becomes a pilot and then an astronaut and becomes the first man to walk on the moon. Those of us who grew up in the 60s can tell you where we were when Jack and Bobby Kennedy were killed and when Martin Luther King Jr. was killed. We remember the Cold War and Vietnam and riots. But we also remember Neil Armstrong, the courageous pilot from just up the road who made history.

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM

Defend yourself against WN virus For the Troy Daily News While part of the country is in the midst of the largest West Nile virus outbreak in a decade, Miami County residents should not feel helpless to defend against the illness. Miami County Health Commissioner Chris Cook urges people to take the steps necessary to protect themselves.

“Public Health is keeping this message simple — do four things to help keep you and your family safe,” Cook said.

Health officials urge residents to follow the four D’s for the remainder of the summer: 1. DEET — use mosquito repellent that lists DEET as an active ingredient. The higher the percentage of DEET, the longer your protection lasts.

2. Dress — wear long pants and long sleeves if you are going to be outside when mosquitoes are active and biting.

3. Dusk and dawn — mosquitoes are most active between dusk and dawn, so be extra careful during these times to avoid mosquito bites.

4. Drain — get rid of any standing water around your house. Even the smallest amount of water in a kiddie pool can be a home for mosquitoes to breed.

Residents also are encouraged to make sure all window and door screens are in good repair to help keep mosquitoes out of the house.

Since 2002, Miami County has recorded five confirmed or probable cases of WNV. Most recently, Miami County Public Health recorded one confirmed case in 2011 and one probable case in 2012. Miami County has never documented a fatality from WNV since testing began.

Miami County Public Health does not test mosquitoes for WNV. Cook explained that several years ago they tested both mosquitoes and birds for the virus.

“The virus has been in the United States for over a decade. Testing just confirmswhat we already know. Our efforts are now focused on prevention,” Cook said. There are only about 25 health departments in Ohio that collect test mosquitoes. and Health Departments do not conduct mosquito spraying efforts; some cities, townships, and villages have spraying programs.

Public health officials also note that about 80 percent of the people bit by a mosquito carrying WNV do not get sick.

People more than 50 years old are the most likely to become severely ill from WNV. Even with the threat of WNV, Cook encourages people to enjoy the rest of the summer.

“Right now is the peak point of West Nile virus exposure,” he said. “I hope people have fun and be outdoors, but please take a few minutes to protect yourself and your family — prevention really does matter.”

Health care law’s tax hikes are coming: Who pays?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Who gets thumped by higher taxes in President Barack Obama’s health care law? The wealthiest 2 percent of Americans will take the biggest hit, starting next year. And the pain will be shared by some who aren’t so well off people swept up in a hodgepodge of smaller tax changes that will help finance health coverage for millions in need.

For the vast majority of people, however, the health care law won’t mean sending more money to the IRS. And roughly 20 million people eventually will benefit from tax credits that start in 2014 to help them pay insurance premiums.

The tax increases plus a mandate that nearly everyone have health coverage are helping make the law an election-year scorcher.

Obama is campaigning on the benefits for the uninsured, women and young adults. His rival, Mitt Romney, and Republican lawmakers are vowing to repeal “Obamacare,” saying some health care reforms are needed but not at this cost.

Lots of the noise is about the financial consequences for people who decline to get coverage and businesses that don’t offer their workers an adequate health plan. Some 4 million individuals without insurance are expected to pay about $55 billion over eight years, according to the Congressional Budget Office’s estimates.

Employers could be dinged an estimated $106 billion

for failing to meet the mandate, which starts in 2014.

But that mandate money, whether it’s called taxes or penalties, is overwhelmed by other taxes, fees and shrunken tax breaks in the law. These other levies could top $675 billion over the next 10 years, under the CBO’s projections of how much revenue the government would lose if the law were repealed.

The biggest chunk is in new taxes on the nation’s top 2 percent of earners some $318 billion over a decade.

Other major taxes are aimed at the health care industry, and some of that cost is sure to be passed along to consumers as higher prices.

A rundown of the most significant tax changes and who pays: THE 2 PERCENT Who pays: About 2.5 million households individuals making more than $200,000 per year, couples $250,000.

How much: A 0.9 percent Medicare tax on wages above those threshold amounts; an additional 3.8 percent tax on investment income. Should raise $318 billion over 10 years.

The lowdown: Together these are the biggest tax increase in the health care law.

For those wealthy enough to owe it, the 3.8 percent investment tax comes on top of the existing 15 percent capital gains rate, which is set to rise to 20 percent next year unless Congress acts.

Over the years, more

Crops suffering?

survey. But some middleclass workers, especially those with strong union contracts, have health plans that exceed the threshold.

Also hit are corporate bigwigs whose employer-paid plans cover virtually all expenses and lots of perks, akin to tax-free income.

Some employees will pay more for their share of insurance costs because the tax will get passed along to them. In other cases, businesses will trim benefits to bring their plans under the tax cutoff. Economists predict that many of the affected workers will get higher pay as a trade-off but those raises would be subject to income tax.

The tax will affect more workers as time goes by. It’s indexed for inflation, but rising health care prices will probably outpace that.

When: 2018 THRIFTY SAVERS Who pays: People who set aside tax-free savings to pay for health care.

How much: About $33 billion over 10 years The lowdown: The law limits annual contributions to medical Flexible Spending Accounts to $2,500; there was no government limit before. Many employers had allowed $5,000 in the accounts, and some even more. But the average contribution was only $1,400 per year, so relatively few workers will be affected. Four in 10 employees have jobs that give them the chance to sign up for these accounts.

Last year, people with FSAs and similar accounts lost the ability to spend the money on over-the-counter medicines not prescribed by doctors.

Also, the penalty increased from 10 percent to 20 percent for money withdrawn for non-medical reasons from Health Savings Accounts, which people use to help pay high insurance deductibles.

When: Contribution limit begins in 2013.

and more people will be caught by the new taxes, because the adjusted gross income level that triggers them doesn’t rise with inflation.

But fears that the investment tax will land on most folks’ home sales seem overblown few sellers will be affected. A couple’s profit not sales price of up to $500,000 from the house they’ve been living in is exempt from taxes; only gains above that amount are taxed.

When: 2013 ARTIFICIAL-SUN WORSHIPPERS Who pays: The 28 million people who visit tanning booths and beds each year most of them women under 30, according to the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology.

How much: A 10 percent tax on the price of tanning.

Expected to raise $1.5 billion over 10 years.

The lowdown: Tanning salons were singled out because of wide agreement among medical experts that baking under ultraviolet lights increases the risk of skin cancer.

When: Took effect in 2010.

THE “CADILLACS” OF COVERAGE Who pays: Insurance companies or businesses that provide plans with premiums of more than $10,200 per person or $27,500 per family, not including dental or vision coverage. Employees covered by these so-called “Cadillac” benefits probably will feel the pinch.

How much: 40 percent excise tax on any amount of premium that exceeds the threshold. Expected to raise $111 billion over five years.

The lowdown: The majority of health plans aren’t affected because they don’t cost enough: Workplace family coverage now averages about $15,000, including the portion paid by the employer, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation’s

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Prepare for your next run-in with nosey aunt Dear Annie: I am a single mother in my mid-30s and recently graduated from college. Because of the current job market, I am having difficulty finding a permanent full-time position in my field.

I will most likely need to relocate to another state.

The problem is my great aunt.

She is a nosy gossip and occasionally puts me on the spot, asking me all kinds of questions. I am not, nor have I ever been, close to this woman. I usually see her only in church, so this is where these grillings take place. I find it highly inappropriate, but she backs me into a corner, and I end up answering her. She had the nerve to ask whether I will be "allowed" to move to another state. When I asked her what she meant, she alluded to the fact that my ex-husband may not want me to take my son elsewhere.

Annie, this woman knows perfectly well that my ex wants nothing to do with our son, and it is extremely hurtful when people bring up the subject. This man has chosen to remove himself from our son's life for the past two years.

Why would she insinuate that he'd block me from moving?

I do not care to air my personal business to my drama queen of an aunt so she can have fodder for her gossipy life. But she is also family, and I do not want to cause controversy by telling her to mind her own business. How can I get her to stop her inquisitions in a tactful way? — Niece in the Hot Seat Dear Niece: There are ways to avoid answering nunofyerbiznesstype questions by obfuscation and changing the subject while remaining sweet and pleasant.

But it sounds like you need to practice in front of a mirror because you get too flustered when cornered. Smile and say sweetly, "Why, Aunt Bee, when I have news to share, I'll be delighted to tell you. Where did you get that lovely dress? You look 10 years younger." Then give her a big kiss on the cheek and walk away before she recovers. Repeat as needed.

Dear Annie: I have a scholarship that makes my private college experience cost nearly the same as my sister's public education. Recently, my father told me that I'm on my own in terms of paying for grad school, should I decide to go.

This surprised me because he and my mother are currently paying for my sister to receive her master's degree. Even though I could handle taking out loans, I'm a little hurt that they'd pay for my sister's entire education and not mine.

How should I deal with this? — Feeling Unloved in Kansas Dear Kansas: It's possible that your parents' financial situation has changed recently, and although they feel obligated to continue with your sister's tuition, they cannot afford to take on any more expenses. The only way to find out why they appear to show favoritism is to ask them. But frankly, neither you nor your sister should depend on your parents to cover the cost of post-graduate degrees. Please look into scholarships, grants and other financial aid.

Dear Annie: "Faithful and Upset" was besieged by a girlfriend who objected to his online friendships with women. While you agreed that she is insecure, you also suggested that he examine his friendships and ask himself whether she has a point.

As a 64-year-old straight male in a monogamous relationship, my friendships are almost entirely with women and gay men. Why? I don't relate well to guys who want to talk sports, cars and how to barbecue. Women are much more interesting, with two of these relationships lasting decades.

Fortunately, my fiancee has no issue with my friendships, which is one of the reasons I love her.

In my view, "Faithful" is liberated from society's illogical, constraining norms. — Santa Cruz Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

SATURDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Why is printer ink so darn expensive?

Dear Heloise: Here is my Sound Off for your column. The other day, I realized my printer was out of ink. I went to the store, and the ink cartridges were $63! I got home, put the new cartridge in and then realized that something was wrong with my printer and it wouldn’t work at all. I went back to the store and saw that I could have gotten a new printer for $50 to begin with! Why do some printer cartridges cost more than a new printer? Before you buy a printer, check out the prices of the cartridges — it might just sway your decision! — A Reader in Texas You struck a chord with me!

Hints from Heloise Columnist We have seven different printers in my office and home (most the same brand), and each uses a different cartridge! The cartridges are not cheap, either!

That’s why we use “recycled” ones that are reasonably priced.

— Heloise RECYCLING CARDS Dear Heloise: I look forward

to your article every day in The Orange County (Calif.) Register!

You told how to recycle greeting cards to a certain size in order to turn them into postcards.

I can’t find those measurements. Please help. — Agnes in California Agnes, happy to help, and this is a green hint as well as one that saves money.

Standard postcard size is 4 1/4 inches by 6 inches and .016 inches thick. Just cut the desired area down to those measurements, and you are ready to send a quick note.

There are many other things that also can be made into postcards, so use your imagination.

Just make sure it’s not larger, or it can be considered oversized and be charged letter postage. — Heloise P.S.: As of Jan. 22, 2012, postage on a postcard is now 32 cents.

FAST FACTS Dear Readers: Here are some money-saving hints: • When eating out, order only water to drink.

• Look for coupons on things you buy frequently.

• Pack a lunch to take to work.

• Turn out lights when not in a room.

• Combine errands to save gasoline. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Tuesday, Aug. 28, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Avoid squabbles with others, especially about shared property or debt.

Especially avoid arguments with someone older or in authority (a landlord?).

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) In many respects, this is not an easy day for you. Things are tough when dealing with authority figures, as well as with friends and partners. Run away! Run away!

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Avoid controversial subjects with coworkers today. (This includes politics, religion and racial issues.) People actually are looking for an excuse to get into a fight.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might be disappointed in your allotment or your fair share of something, especially if this has to do with sports, children and social occasions.

These things happen. (It is what it is.)

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Put a lid on it when talking to everyone at home today, whether they are partners or family members. Tiny differences will escalate quickly into nasty arguments. (Who needs this?)

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You might not realize how strong you come off when talking to others today.

You want to be right, and you want to get your own way. Hey — you can’t always do this. (Ya think?)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Avoid squabbles about money and possessions, because they won’t solve anything. Instead, you will get rankled and upset, and your peace of mind will be destroyed. Just let it go.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Arguments with parents and female relatives will go nowhere today. You only regret it. Remember: A closed mouth gathers no feet.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Someone might be working behind the scenes against your best interests. You might know this, but you cannot prove it. Just bide your time quietly.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) In a class or group situation today, disagreements could break out, especially with a female. You need this like another hole in your head. Chill out.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Because the Moon is in your sign today, you will be more emotional than usual. You will especially be tempted to rebel against authority figures.

(How smart is that?) Not. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Something behind the scenes that you can’t mention might anger you today.

Don’t worry about this, because many people feel the same way. Your best option is to be patient and let it pass.

YOU BORN TODAY You are skilled with language. You know how to use words to convey all kinds of subtle meanings. Naturally, you’re articulate and convincing! But more than that, you can inspire and motivate others.

Frequently, people come to you for advice. In the next year, a major change might take place, possibly something as significant as what occurred around 2003.

Trojans tie for first at Schroeder Staff Reports

TIPP CITY

The Troy tennis team accomplished something that hadn’t been done during coach Mark Goldner’s five-year tenure as girls coach.

The Trojans tied for first with

Bellbrook, finishing with 32 points in the eight-team match at Schroeder Tennis Center — their first time winning the tournament at Schroeder.

And Troy got contributions

from all over.

Meredith Orozco and Holly Riley were crowned champs at first doubles, while Shelby Arnett won third singles. The second doubles team of Kelly Fischer and Marina Wehrkamp placed second overall.

Reds may call up speedster Hamilton

Sunday’s loss. “The work on the field has been good. I have a long way to go on my swing. The things that I’m uncomfortable about will come out when I play in Dayton.”

The Reds could have used Votto on Sunday against Adam Wainwright, who won his fifth consecutive start.

Wainwright (13-10) allowed two runs and six hits in 5 2-3 innings while improving to 6-0 with a 1.80 ERA in his last seven starts overall. The 6-foot7 right-hander, who missed all of last season because of elbow surgery, hasn’t lost since July 18

PEARL, Miss. (AP) — Every muscle is twitching as Billy Hamilton inches farther from first base, a dead giveaway that some havoc is about to happen.

After a few futile pickoff attempts by the pitcher, Hamilton is off, stealing second base ahead of the errant throw that bounces into the outfield, which allows him to scamper into third base before another late throw. Two batters later, he scores on a groundout and the Pensacola Blue Wahoos have a 10 lead on a muggy Saturday night at Trustmark Park.

It is Hamilton’s 149th stolen base of the season another notch in his already record-breaking season and further proof he’s the most dangerous man on the basepaths in the minor leagues.

“The things he is doing this year are outrageous,” Pensacola manager Jim Riggleman said.

“It’s really been a once-in-alifetime experience.”

Now the 21-year-old would like to test those wheels in the big leagues and swipe a few bags for the Cincinnati Reds during the playoff push. He’s certainly giving general manager Walt Jocketty plenty of reasons 149 to be exact to bring him up to the big leagues when rosters expand on Sept. 1.

“At this point, it’s something that’s under consideration,” Jocketty said on Friday. “We haven’t made a final decision.”

Hamilton was playing in some familiar territory on Saturday, just 60 miles northwest of his hometown of Taylorsville, Miss, where he was a football, basketball and baseball star during high school.

His mom, Polly, was sitting with about 75 others who were all wearing matching grey Tshirts with Hamilton’s name and number on the back. He received the biggest ovation of the night when he came to the plate even though he was playing for the opposing team.

“It’s been so much fun being able to watch him this season,” Polly Hamilton said. “But I’ll be honest, the next time I see him, it would be nice if it was in Cincinnati.”

It could happen, but there are

Votto hasn’t played since July 15 after injuring his left knee sliding into third base on June 28 in San Francisco. The 2010 NL MVP started the AllStar game and is hitting .342 with 14 home runs and 49 RBIs. “I’m a little apprehensive because I haven’t played in a long time,” Votto said before

Nick Watney watch his shot off the 17th tee during the fourth round of The Barclays golf tournament Sunday at Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, N.Y.

Watney wins The Barclays FARMINGDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Nick Watney salvaged a dismal season with a victory Sunday at The Barclays that was timely in so many ways.

Watney turned a twoshot deficit against Sergio Garcia into a three-shot lead in four holes around the turn at Bethpage Black, and then hung on to close with a 2-under 69 and capture the opening playoff event for the FedEx Cup. Watney won by three over Brandt Snedeker.

Watney is assured a shot at the $10 million prize at the Tour Championship next month. Winning against one of the strongest fields of the year also puts him in the conversation as a captain’s pick for the Ryder Cup. Davis Love III will

■ Major League Baseball

Reds ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 at Milwaukee.

“Wainwright threw the ball well,” Baker said.

“There’s not much else to say, except they beat us.”

Reds right-hander Homer Bailey (10-9) gave up five runs in six innings while falling to 1-3 with a 6.04 ERA in five August starts. He also allowed a season-high nine hits for the sixth time.

The Cardinals strung together four consecutive ground-ball singles during a five-hit third inning that plated three runs.

Skip Schumaker led off with a double to right-center, and Wainwright chipped in with a one-out single into left field.

Schumaker scored on Jon Jay’s base hit up the middle and Matt Carpenter singled to load the bases for Matt Holliday’s tworun single to left.

“That’s the way it goes,” Bailey said. “I can

hold my head up high. I was trying to get them to hit ground balls and get some double plays and keep the ball in the yard.

It wasn’t like I was all over the place. I didn’t have any walks. You’ve just got to tip your cap to them.”

St. Louis added two more runs in the sixth to make it 5-0. Holliday hit a leadoff triple before Craig drove a 1-2 pitch over the wall in left for his 20th homer.

Chris Heisey and Ryan Ludwick had RBI singles in the sixth for Cincinnati, which beat the Cardinals 8-2 on Saturday.

Holliday doubled in a run in the seventh and singled in Carpenter in the ninth.

“It’s a situation where they came in swinging the bats,” Baker said of St. Louis, which finished with 42 hits in the series. “We couldn’t put them away.”

every inning he had somebody on base, but he didn’t crumble.”

“I haven’t been consistent,” Jimenez said. “That’s the first thing I’m unhappy about.”

Curtis Granderson hit his 200th career homer off Tony Sipp in the sixth. The Yankees took two of three in the series following a three-game losing streak, opening a four-game lead in the AL East over idle Tampa Bay. “A good win because we needed to beat these guys,” Granderson said. “We needed to win a series here, get things back in order and now we head home.”

Jimenez’s second-inning problems began when Eric Chavez singled and Raul Ibanez walked. Ichiro Suzuki’s single gave New York the lead. After a sacrifice, Derek Jeter’s groundout scored Ibanez. With a chance to limit the damage to two runs, Jimenez allowed a single to Nick Swisher that put the Indians in a 3-0 hole.

Jimenez allowed at least one base runner in every inning, giving up eight hits and one walk. He threw 100 pitches.

Yankees starter Freddy Garcia worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the third, getting Santana to

pop a 3-2 pitch to right. The right-hander wasn’t as fortunate in the fifth after getting two quick outs.

Kipnis singled, Garcia hit Asdrubal Cabrera with a pitch and then walked Shin-Soo Choo. This time, Santana grounded the first pitch up the middle for a two-run single to make it 3-2.

Garcia left the game in favor of Boone Logan, who retired Michael Brantley on a groundout with runners on first and third.

Logan (5-2) pitched 1 2-3 innings for the win. Rafael Soriano got four outs for his 33rd save in 35 chances.

both the short and long term, though there’s also little doubt a promotion would be premature in many ways. His speed would be among MLB’s best immediately, but his defense at shortstop has been inconsistent. His role with the Reds would likely be confined to pinch running and other spot duty.

But Cincinnati could use the speed. The Reds had just 72 stolen bases this season going into Sunday’s game, which ranked 14th out of 16 National League teams.

Not surprisingly, the

wiry 6-foot, 170-pound Hamilton was all for a promotion.

“I can go up there and do a little damage for the playoff run,” Hamilton said with a grin.

And Riggleman, who’s seen his share of speedsters while managing in the majors, is quick to point out that Hamilton is more than a pair of fast feet.

Hamilton is batting .320 this season including .313 in 42 games since being promoted to DoubleA. The switch-hitter also has 21 doubles, 14 triples, a pair of homers and

walked 82 times in 124 games this season.

“Obviously, he’s still working on everything and he’s not a finished product,” Riggleman said.

“That being said, he’s our best on-base percentage guy, he’s a pretty polished right-handed hitter and he’s a good RBI guy for us.

He’s playing very advanced for a 21-yearold.”

Advanced enough for the rigors of a big league pennant chase?

Riggleman’s getting him ready just in case, because Pensacola’s regular season ends Sept. 3.

I certainly had a lot of fun.

I say they grind the whole place. Sounds awesome. I hope they do that next time.”

Believing the progressive banking had created too many lanes for drivers to use, Smith ordered the top groove to be ground down at Bristol. His desired effect was a tighter track that forced drivers to run around the bottom and use their bumpers to move cars out of their way.

They had to use their bumpers, but it was at the top of the track where the action occurred. The new top groove picked up rubber as the race progressed, and the grip in the high line was too attractive for drivers to ignore.

Denny Hamlin, who picked up his first Bristol

victory, thought the racing was similar to years past.

“We were all running in a line and just waiting on the next guy to screw up to get around,” he said.

“That’s what you had with the old Bristol. That’s how we had to race. I don’t think we saw as much side-by-side racing, but you didn’t see side-by-side racing with the old Bristol. You just saw a bunch of cars in line waiting on someone to get knocked out of the way or mess up and that’s the same thing we had.”

With it came the return of a vintage Stewart reaction following his accident with Kenseth.

The three-time series champion had rallied from a lap down to run for the lead with Kenseth, but after the two came close to wrecking for at least an

entire lap, they finally collided for reasons neither agreed upon. Stewart showed his displeasure by tossing his helmet at Kenseth’s car, and promising a rocky ride the rest of the season.

“I’m going to run over him every chance I’ve got from now ‘til the end of the year, every chance I’ve got,” Stewart said.

That’s the kind of responses fans expect at Bristol, where Dale Jarrett in 1993 threw his helmet at Bobby Hillin Jr.’s car. Ward Burton once threw his heel guards at Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jimmie Johnson made an obscene gesture, Gordon shoved Kenseth, Kevin Harvick charged after Greg Biffle, and, oh, the late Dale Earnhardt spun Terry Labonte in an effort to “rattle his cage.”

■ Major League Baseball

Hamilton ■ CONTINUED FROM 15 a few factors working against Hamilton: He was just recently promoted to Double-A and he’s not on the 40-man roster, meaning the NL Central-leading Reds would have to bump somebody to make room.

But Hamilton is so fast, it might not matter.

“I’m going back down next weekend to watch him play,” Jocketty said.

“I’m going to talk to (Riggleman) and we’ll make a final determination at that point.”

Hamilton is certainly an intriguing prospect in

CLEVELAND (AP) — Manager Manny Acta is trying to find positives for the reeling Cleveland Indians.

That’s what the season has come to for Acta.

Cleveland’s extended tailspin continued with Sunday’s 4-2 loss to the New York Yankees.

“We pitched OK, which made for a decent ballgame,” Acta said. “That makes it easier to take then when you’re trailing by a ton of runs and it sucks the energy out of everybody.”

Ubaldo Jimenez, who leads the AL in losses, allowed three runs all coming in the second in five innings. The right-hander (9-13) fell to 1-6 in nine starts since the All-Star break.

The Indians broke a nine-game losing streak with a 3-1 win on Saturday, but an early deficit and a lack of clutch hitting were too much to overcome for Cleveland, which has lost nine of 10.

“We just need to show up (Monday) and worry about that game,” Acta said. “We can’t be talking about stringing wins together. Take it one at a time and win one before you can string two, three or four.”

In a way, yes, Monday’s start of the year’s last Grand Slam actually marks something of a new beginning the kickoff of a sixmonth stretch on the hard courts that winds down at the 2013 Australian Open.

Call it mental gymnastics, a creative way of looking at things or whatever else might apply. What can’t be denied is that in an

Olympic year, the U.S. Open considered the toughest test in tennis even under normal circumstances is essentially the season’s fifth major. “A lot of them,� Jim Courier said, “are running on fumes.�

Indeed, many top players have had to double down on their fitness and find new, creative ways of organizing their schedules to get ready for what they hope will be a two-week grind in the fishbowl that is

Flushing Meadows.

Defending champion Novak Djokovic barely took any time off following his fourth-place finish at the Olympics. He traveled to Toronto for a hard-court tuneup, played six matches and won the tournament.

Then, he flew to Cincinnati, played six more matches but lost to Roger Federer in the final. No shame there, though that loss to Federer did include an uncharacteristic 6-0 whitewashing in the first

set. “Mentally, I wasn’t there, wasn’t fresh,�

Djokovic said. “It had been a very busy time starting at the Olympic Games, and maybe that caught up with me at the end.�

No big deal in Cincinnati. But a half-hour mental lapse in New York could mean the end of Djokovic’s quest to win what has, essentially, shaped up as the tiebreaker major for 2012.

Irish suspend top back Wood SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Notre Dame suspended starting tailback Cierre Wood two games for violating team rules, leaving the Fighting Irish without their 1,000-yard rusher against Navy and Purdue.

Wood led the Irish in rushing last year with 1,102 yards and scored nine rushing touchdowns while averaging 5.1 yards per carry. Wood, a senior, played in all 13 games in 2011 with nine starts. Theo Riddick and George Atkinson III will likely be the Irish’s top two ball carriers now that Wood is out.

Coach Brian Kelly also announced Sunday that junior defensive end Justin Utupo was suspended for the games against Navy in Dublin, Ireland on Sept. 1 and the home opener the following Saturday against

Purdue. “Our players are aware of the standards I set for our program and that failure to meet my expectations will result in consequences,� Kelly said in a release. “Justin and Cierre violated our team rules so I’ve suspended them for the first two games of the season.�

Utupo played in 12 games in 2011, primarily on special teams, and was a reserve defensive end on the most recent Notre Dame depth chart.

Earlier, Kelly suspended quarterback Tommy Rees and linebacker Carlo Calabrese for the season opener for their roles in a skirmish with police following an off-campus party in May. The Irish have also lost starting cornerback Lo Wood for the season with a ruptured Achilles tendon. He underwent surgery on Wednesday.

Seahawks cut ties with Owens RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Terrell Owens’ NFL return lasted less than three weeks.

Owens was released by the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, part of the leaguemandated roster reductions from 90 to 75 players.

The 38-year-old posted a message on his Twitter account shortly before 11 a.m. PDT that he had been released and the Seahawks made the move official later in the afternoon. “I’m no longer a Seahawk. I THANK the organization 4 the opportunity, I’m truly blessed beyond belief. My FAITH is intact & will NOT waiver.�

Owens wasn’t the only veteran to get cut by the Seahawks. Offensive linemen Deuce Lutui and Alex Barron both had their veteran contracts terminated, while Seattle waived/injured defensive back Roy Lewis (knee), tight end Cameron Morrah

(toe), defensive tackle Pep Levingston (knee) and linebacker Jamison Konz (shoulder).

Owens signed a one-year deal with Seattle (No. 22 in APPro32) on Aug. 7, following a sterling workout that had coaches and Seahawks staff raving about how good he looked for having not played an NFL game in more than 18 months.

He signed just before Seattle’s first preseason game and made his debut in the second week against Denver.

But his preseason performance was more notable for the passes he dropped than anything he caught.

Owens dropped a potential 46-yard touchdown against Denver on a perfect throw from Matt Flynn. He failed to make a catch in any of his five targets against the Broncos and then had another glaring drop against Kansas City on Friday night.

won the Australian Open.

Rafael Nadal won the French Open. Top-seeded Federer won Wimbledon.

Just for good measure, third-seeded Andy Murray won the Olympics, meaning the U.S. Open could essentially determine the player of the year in men’s tennis.

Some combination of Nadal absent this year because of a knee injury and the other three have occupied every spot in the finals of the past eight Grand Slam tournaments.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden (3) looks for a receiver during the second quarter of a preseason NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles Friday in Cleveland.

Weeden working on ball security BEREA, Ohio (AP) Browns rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden knows he needs to get a grip.

With three fumbles in five quarters during the exhibition season, Weeden’s inability to hold onto the football while under duress has become an unexpected issue for the Browns, who will open the regular season in two weeks against a lightning-quick Philadelphia defense that craves turnovers.

Weeden knows it’s time for clamp down on the ball. “You just have to have a death grip on it,� he said Sunday “That’s all there is to it.�

In Friday’s 27-10 loss to the Eagles, Weeden fumbled twice in the first quarter as the Browns fell behind 14-0. Weeden’s first fumble wasn’t his fault as Cleveland’s protection broke down on a botched screen pass, allowing Eagles defensive tackle Derek Landri to shoot

through a hole untouched and strip an unsuspecting Weeden.

Weeden acknowledged that the second fumble, which was recovered by Browns tight end Jordan Cameron, was because he was holding the ball too low while stepping up in the pocket. He fumbled on a similar play while trying to make a pass against Detroit in the preseason opener, when he was constantly pressured by the Lions’ defensive front.

Weeden understands that he has to do a better job holding onto the ball, but he’s not going to go to anything out of the ordinary to improve his ballhandling skills. “I mean I’m not going to carry a football around with me at night,� he joked. “If you start thinking about all of that other stuff, you get in trouble. I know it seems like a big deal because three of them were on the ground, It’s not something I’m going

to lose a lot of sleep over, but I’m definitely going to take it seriously and when I can work on it, I’m definitely going to work on it.�

Browns coach Pat Shurmur and his staff are always harping on Cleveland’s players to protect the football. They have several daily drills designed to reinforce ball security.

Shurmur was asked if there was anything more he could tell Weeden other than to hang onto the ball. “Yeah,� he said. “Hang on to the ball. I think ball security is primary for anybody who touches the ball, especially the quarterback who touches it every play. He knows that we drill that. A great deal of fumbles in this league involve the quarterback in the pocket and he knows that. It’s very important for him to maneuver in the pocket where he doesn’t fumble and if he’s getting tackled or sacked he needs to wrap the ball up. He knows that.�

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis’ bruised defense finally got some help Sunday.

Four days after team owner Jim Irsay ignited speculation about a possible trade with a series of Twitter posts, the Colts acquired former firstround draft pick Vontae Davis to solidify their secondary.

Miami will get Indy’s second-round pick and a conditional, undisclosed late-round pick in the 2013 draft a steep price for a veteran cornerback who recently lost his starting job, but one the Colts found reasonable. “I think if Vontae were coming out in the 2013 draft, there’s no way he’d be there. A guy of this caliber and with this talent level and skill set, he wouldn’t be there in the second (round),� Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. “You don’t find guys like this in the second.�

The addition of Davis came hours after the Colts took another big defensive hit when an MRI confirmed defensive tackle Brandon McKinney injured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.

Pagano said McKinney would likely go on injured reserve soon, ending his season.

McKinney, one of several ex-Ravens now in Indianapolis (No. 32 in AP Pro32), was signed as a free agent in April to add size and depth to the defensive line. With his knowledge of the Ravens’ defensive system, Pagano and the new Colts coaches expected him to help Indy make a smooth transition from their traditional 4-3 defensive front to Pagano’s preferred 3-4 hybrid.

It’s been that kind of preseason for the Colts, who have lost two backup linebackers with seasonending knee injuries and will be without starting inside linebacker Pat Angerer (fractured foot) for several more weeks.

Japan tops Tenn. for title S O U T H WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. (AP) — Arms outstretched in the air with a smile from ear-toear, Noriatsu Osaka couldn’t contain his glee.

Neither could his teammates from Tokyo after Osaka’s third home run of the game put an exclamation point on Japan’s 12-2 victory over Tennessee in five innings in the Little League World Series title game Sunday.

The 12-year-old Osaka added a triple for good measure, too, to top off his 4-for-4 afternoon. In a symbolic gesture, Japan’s players jogged the traditional postgame victory lap carrying the flags for both their home country and the United States.
