BOARDMANSeveral years of discussions

to make one township railroad crossing safer may soon pay off.

With the help of grant fund-ing from the Ohio Rail Develop-ment Commission, Youngstown & Southeastern Railroad plans to make some improvements to the crossing at Maple Avenue and

Southern Boulevard this fall.The project will include drain-

age improvements, raising the rail line several inches, and smooth-ing and widening the crossing. Al-though not included in this proj-ect, there also are plans to add a traffi c light at that intersection.

Powell Felix, president of Y&S, said the improvements will make a difference for those who drive over the crossing.

“The thing that motorists will notice is there will be a new sur-face made out of concrete that’ll be smooth and nice to drive on,” he said.

The rail line will share the cost of the project with the state, with the state contributing 90 percent of the funds, said ORDC spokes-woman Julianne Finnegan.

Boardman railroad crossing upgrade gets on track

Staff report

YOUNGSTOWNThe motive is unclear and

police have no suspects in a shooting at a Magnolia Avenue apartment about 10 p.m. Saturday that left one man dead and another injured.

Killed was Tavares Jones, 41, of Victor Avenue in the Rockford Village housing complex. He was visiting his girlfriend at the time of the shooting, police said.

Several shots were fired through a screen door at the Magnolia apartment, said Youngstown police Lt. Doug Bobovnyik. Jones, who was shot in the chest, was pro-nounced dead at the scene.

Another man, Delataire W hite, 24, who listed a Brooklyn Avenue address, was shot in the leg and treated at St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital.

Two others in the Mag-nolia apartment at the time of the shooting were not in-jured, Bobovnyik said.

The detective said Jones and White were in the kitch-en area when several shots were fired into the kitchen area of the apartment on Youngstown’s East Side. It is not known what type of weapon was used in the shooting.

Youngstown has 12 ho-micides so far in 2017, com-pared with 18 at this time last year, according to Vindi-cator fi les.

CANFIELDEarlier this year, James Kagarise

went to the Animal Charity Hu-mane Society in Boardman on be-half of his dog, but returned with more than he bargained for.

“We went to Animal Charity for flea treatment and came home with a reptile,” the Youngstown man said with a chuckle.

Soon, the family had a new member: Chewbobca, an 11-year-old, 40-pound tortoise. At first, Kagarise’s children couldn’t

agree on a name, so they came up with one that is a combination of Bob and Chewbacca, a character from the popular “Star Wars” series nicknamed Chewie.

Chewbobca may have stayed home, but several other tor-toises of all sizes were on hand to delight the Kagarise fam-ily and others who attended Sunday’s Reptile & Amphib-ian Show at the Mill Creek MetroParks Farm, 7574 Co-lumbiana-Canfi eld Road (state Route 46).

RON KOCKA OF MECCATownship was one of thousands who took advantage of nearly

perfect weather Sunday to at-tend the Wings-n-Wheels extravaganza at the Ernie Hall Aviation Museum.

The fifth annual event featured vintage aircraft buzzing the crowd while re-creating the dive-bomb-ing sounds of World War II.

The museum is adjacent to SLOAS Airfi eld with a north-south, 3,000-foot runway just 4 miles west of Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport.

The planes were parked on the

east side of the airfi eld, and row after row of more than 800 hot rods and classic cars, including Kocka’s 1953 Buick Super with a V-8 engine with 322 cubic inches of displacement and a Dynafl ow automatic transmission, lined the west side of the airfi eld.

“You can sit here and see the world go by – people, cars and planes – over-head. This is one of the best shows around,” said Kocka, sitting by his car. He is an Air Force veteran and Niles RMI Titanium retiree.

Kocka’s comment is the kind that Bill Griffi n, owner of the airfield, director of the Er-nie Hall Aviation Museum and

‘Dark Tower’ topsa slow weekend;‘Detroit’ disappoints

NEW YORKAfter a decade of de-

velopment and several postponements, the long-awaited Stephen King adaptation “The Dark Tower” debuted with an estimated $19.5 million in North American ticket sales, narrowly edging out the two-week leader “Dunkirk.”

The modest result for “The Dark Tower,” starring Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey, was in line with expectations heading into the weekend but well shy of initial hopes for a possible franchise-starter.

J.J. Abrams and Ron Howard are among the directors who previously tried to tackle King’s mag-num opus, a seven-book series that melds sci-fi with horror and other genres.

But the long battle to make “The Dark Tower” ended with poor reviews and few fi reworks. Still, the movie was made for a relatively modest amount: about $60 million, or half of what many other sum-mer movies cost. Sony Pic-tures also split costs with Media Rights Capital.

“It was always an ambi-tions and bold undertak-ing, but it was made at the right price,” said Adrian Smith, president of domes-tic distribution for Sony Pictures.

Estimated ticket sales

for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian the-aters according to com-Score. Where available, the latest international numbers also are includ-ed. Final domestic fi gures will be released today:

1. “The Dark Tower,” � $19.5 million ($8 mil-lion international). 2. “Dunkirk,” $17.6 �

million ($25 million international). 3. “The Emoji Movie,” � $12.4 million ($12 mil-lion international). 4. “Girls Trip,” �

$11.4 million ($1.7 mil-lion international). 5. “Kidnap,” �

$10.2 million. 6. “Spider-Man: Home- �

coming,” $8.8 mil-lion ($9.6 million international). 7. “Atomic Blonde,” � $8.2 million ($5 million international). 8. “Detroit,” � $7.3 million. 9. “War for the Plan- �

et of the Apes,” $6 mil-lion ($31.5 million international). 10. “Despicable Me 3,” � $5.3 million ($21.2 mil-lion international).

Actor makes shiftfrom Norman Batesto ‘Good Doctor’

BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF.Freddie Highmore sees

his move from “Bates Mo-tel” to “The Good Doctor” as a refreshing change.

“It’s nice to save people after years of killing them,” Highmore said, dryly, of the surgeon he plays in the upcoming ABC drama.

He por-trayed an adolescent Norman Bates On “Bates Mo-tel,” A&E’s prequel to the classic thriller “Psycho.”

Highmore’s Dr. Shaun Murphy, who has autism and savant syndrome, joins a hospital’s presti-gious surgical unit despite staff bias and skepticism. Richard Schiff (“The West Wing”) co-stars as his advocate and mentor.

The series is from David Shore, who produced the medical drama “House,” and actor Daniel Dae Kim of “Lost” and “Hawaii Five-O.”

MANILA, PHILIPPINESA global pressure cam-

paign on North Korea pro-pelled by sharp new U.N. sanctions received a wel-come boost Sunday from China, the North’s eco-nomic lifeline, as Beijing called on its neighbor to halt its missile and nuclear tests.

The Trump administra-tion cautiously embraced China’s apparent new-found cooperation, while putting it on notice that the U.S. would be watching closely to ensure it didn’t ease up on North Korea if and when the world’s at-tention is diverted else-where. But there were no signs the U.S. would ac-quiesce to China’s call for a quick return to negotia-tions.

The diplomatic wran-gling sought to build on the sweeping new North Korea sanctions passed by the U.N. Security Council a day earlier – the strongest in a generation, the U.S. said.

As diplomats gathered in the Philippines for an annual regional meeting,

President Donald Trump was cheering the move. He cited the “very big finan-cial impact” of the sanc-tions and noted optimisti-cally that both China and Russia had joined in the unanimous vote. On Sun-day, following a late-night conversation with South Korean President Moon Jae-in, Trump tweeted: “Just completed call with President Moon of South Korea. Very happy and im-pressed with 15-0 United Nations vote on North Ko-rea sanctions.”

In characterist ical ly understated fashion, U.S. Secretary of State Rex Til-lerson said, “It was a good outcome.”

For the U.S., it was a long-awaited sign of progress for Trump’s strategy of trying to enlist Beijing’s help to squeeze North Korea dip-lomatically and economi-cally. Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, meeting with North Korea’s top dip-lomat during the gathering in Manila, urged the North to “maintain calm” despite the U.N. vote.

“Do not violate the U.N.’s decision or provoke inter-

national society’s good-will by conducting missile launching or nuclear tests,” Wang said, in an unusually direct admonition.

Tillerson did not meet with North Korea’s envoy, Ri Yong Ho. In fact, on his fi rst day in Manila, Tiller-son appeared to go out of his way to avoid crossing paths with Ri.

TILLERSON ON RUSSIAMeanwhile, Tillerson

says the U.S. will respond by Sept. 1 to Russia’s move to force a major reduction in American diplomatic staff.

He says he communicat-ed U.S. plans to respond by that deadline to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in their meeting in Manila on Sunday.

Tillerson says he told Lavrov that the U.S. still hasn’t decided how it will respond.

Russia said recently it was forcing the U.S. to cut its embassy and consul-ate staff in Russia by 755 people. But there’s been confusion because the U.S. is believed to have far fewer than 755 American employees in Russia.

Finnegan said an agreement to move forward on the project was reached after the ORDC evaluated the intersection and determined it needed safety improvements.

“We’ve had this crossing on our radar for a while,” she said. “The community has repeatedly reached out to us” regarding the need for improvements.

Township Trustee Tom Costello, who has been outspoken in the past with his concerns about the safety and upkeep of the crossing, said he is “extremely pleased” that the rail-

road company is “finally moving forward with improvements that so desperately have needed done for so long.”

Costello said his primary concern is safety, especially for motorists turning from Maple to southbound Southern Boulevard.

“You take your life into your hands” when making that turn, he said. “So that we do not have a se-rious problem there, we need that signal up.”

He has heard complaints, too, from motorists whose vehicles have been damaged while driving over the crossing, he said. Raising the rail line by a few inches will eliminate

the dip over which motorists cur-rently have to drive.

Felix noted that the area sur-rounding the crossing has changed considerably over the last few de-cades.

“Twenty to 30 years ago, there was no through street to the mall or anything like that,” he said. “Now there’s lots of traffi c. It’s kind of an updating of the whole facility. It’s not like we’ve been ignoring it. It’s taken considerable effort and a couple of years to get everyone on the same page with this.”

The planned completion date for the project is Oct. 15, according to the ORDC. Plans for installation of a

traffi c light have not yet been fi nal-ized.

In addition to the work being man-aged by Y&S, the township plans to complete some minor drainage work in the area.

A contractor has not yet been se-lected for the project. The crossing will be closed for a few days during the work.

“It’s now moving forward, and I’m just thankful it’s getting done before someone gets hurt,” said Costello.

“We thank everybody for working through this,” said Felix. “This has not been easy because of the mul-tiple jurisdictions, and everybody wants to get a good result.”

The primary purpose was to foster a greater awareness of and appreciation for a vari-ety of animals that often are feared and viewed negative-ly largely because of certain myths, noted Mandy Smith, the MetroParks’ education manager.

“It’s good to have the whole family learn together, and that’s what this event provides,” Smith said, add-ing that unfavorable por-trayals of such animals can reinforce people’s fears of them.

Kagarise’s children – Jim-my, 4, Jamie, 8, and Mad-eline, 10 – felt anything but fear, however, as they got acquainted with Diego, a nearly 4-foot-long Argentine black-and-white tegu. Also enjoying the experience was 10-year-old Lizzie Pfeffer of Austintown, a family friend.

“I’ve had him since he was a baby. He was the best Christmas present I’ve re-ceived,” said Ben Hosler of Chesterland, who owns the large lizard, the likes of which have a distinct pattern of black and white dots and stripes on their bodies, are quite docile and live mainly in rain forests and savannas of Argentina and other re-gions of South America.

Sure enough, Hosler’s 7-year-old tegu seemed to take all the attention it re-ceived in stride. Diego also can be quite sociable, Hosler continued, adding that his pet’s diet consists largely of wet dog and cat food as well as many vegetables.

“I’ve been told that we made him a Facebook page and all that social media stuff,” added Hosler, who’s

also a member of the North-ern Ohio Association of Her-petologists, a 43-year-old organization dedicated to offering the public accurate information regarding the care, breeding and conser-vation of reptiles and am-phibians.

The animals at Sunday’s event were courtesy of NOAH and the Herps Alive Foundation, a South Eu-clid-based charity that lists as its primary goal saving, rehabilitating and caring for neglected, abused and unwanted amphibians and reptiles.

Other attractions were four species of tortoises – the largest of which was an African spur thigh, which can weigh up to 150 pounds, and an 8-year-old Russian

variety.“These guys are very in-

quisitive, very friendly and very intelligent,” said Dr. Erica Giles, a veterinarian and Herps Alive volunteer. “They remind me of a dog, in that they have such good personalities.”

Among those who agreed with that assessment was 3-year-old Mollyann Hulings of Petersburg, who enjoyed holding the Russian tortoise. Accompanying the young-ster were her parents, Tom and Denise Hulings, and older brother, Zachary, 5.

Snakes of all sizes, colors and shapes also were a big draw, including a yellow-and-white 8-foot albino Burmese python, the likes of which are native to tropi-cal and subtropical regions

of southern Asia. They prey on birds as well as rats and other mammals.

“She’s a domestic snake that never lived in the wild, and that’s why she’s so gen-tle,” Katie Shipka, a park vol-unteer, said about Chutes, a 7-year-old striped corn snake, the likes of which are common in the southeast-ern U.S.

The nonvenomous snake Shipka held and demon-strated to interested at-tendees was predominately rust-colored, complement-ed with mottled spots and a large stripe from the head to its tail. The reptile, however, didn’t feel like many people probably expected it should, she said.

“Most people think they’re wet and icky, and they’re

anything but,” Shipka add-ed.

Herps Alive also provided information on healthful vegetables and other foods for reptiles, proper heating procedures for enclosures and feeding tips for snakes and insect-eating reptiles.

Displays included a na-tive snake exhibit, courtesy of the Beaver Creek Wild-life Education Center, along with jars containing small frogs, turtles and snakes, and a table with samples of turtle shells, an alligator skull, snake and frogs eggs and nonpoisonous snake skeletons.

Many children engaged in arts and crafts that allowed them to draw, cut and color snakes they made from pa-per plates.

“There is a lot to see and do. Where else can you see 100 planes and nearly 1,000 cars and bikes. I hope pa-trons leave saying that the $10 admission was well-spent,” said Griffi n.

“People tell me this is the best show and the best-run show they’ve ever been to, and that they are already talking about coming back next year. That’s special to me,” Griffi n said.

The proceeds are used to keep the museum going and to help Northeast Ohio Adop-tion Services and the Animal Welfare League of Trumbull County, he said.

E s p e c i a l l y e n j o y i n g Wings-n-Wheels were Ron and Kathy Carroll of Austin-town.

Ron, who was inducted into the Ernie Hall Avia-tion Museum Hall of Fame in 2015, has been a pilot ex-aminer for 30 years. He gave Griffi n and his son their pilot licenses. Kathy is a commer-cial pilot and fl ight instructor for single- and multi-engine planes.

Paul Orend of Bethel Lu-theran Church in Boardman, attending Wings-n-Wheels for the second time, said he is impressed by the scope of the event.

Orend said his church sponsors an event with 60-70 bikes and cars as a fund-raiser for the church youth group. “You need a good turnout,” he said.

”It’s a nice gathering, a nice meet-and-greet to talk to other plane people,” said Brett Betz of Aurora, who flew to Sunday’s Wings-n-Wheels event in his 1965 Cessna 210.

“It’s a wonderful show that has grown substantially since I was here two years ago,” Betz said.

A ceremony was con-ducted Sunday afternoon to honor Bethany Root, a Ma-plewood High School gradu-ate, in which she was post-humously inducted into the Ernie Hall Aviation Museum Hall of Fame.

Root, 34, one of only three female crop dusters in the United States, and manager of the Amelia Earhart Me-morial Airport in Atchison, Kan., died July 16 when a World War II P-51 Mustang, in which she was a passen-ger, crashed.

“That P-51 was coming to Sunday’s show,” said Griffi n.

Austintown outageAUSTINTOWN

Power was restored by 12:40 p.m. Sunday after a tree limb fell on a circuit at the Wickliff e Circle Ohio Edison substation about 11 a.m., knocking out power to an estimated 8,000 cus-tomers – about 6,000 in Austintown and some 2,000 in Youngstown.

A spokesman for Ohio Edi-son said it is not clear why the limb fell but theorized it may have been weakened by recent severe weather and the weight of moisture.

Staff report

YOUNGSTOWNMill Creek MetroParks of-

fi cials hope some improve-ments that are being made at Volney Rogers Field will attract new visitors to the area.

The park is wrapping up a project to resurface the ten-nis courts and basketball court at the fi eld. While the courts have not yet reopened to the public, the park ex-pects work to be complete soon.

T h e a p p r o x i m a t e l y $100,000 project, which be-gan in June, included resur-facing the asphalt surfac-es, as well as adding a new acrylic playing surface to

the basketball court and all six tennis courts.

In addition to work on the courts, the park opted to make some improvements to the surrounding area.

“We’re taking the op-portunity to make other improvements and rehab more of the facility,” said park planning Manager Justin Rogers.

Those improvements in-clude the addition of two pickleball courts and a new asphalt trail that connects current trails to the basket-ball court.

Pickleball, a game that is growing in popularity, combines elements of bad-minton, tennis and table tennis.

The project also includes replacement of basketball hoops and a tennis practice wall, plus maintenance to the walkways in the area and some forestry work.

“We’re taking the oppor-tunity, while the courts are down, to really get the fa-cility to a more improved level,” said Rogers. “Overall, it’s giving it a more modern look and appeal. Our hope is to bring in different user groups, with pickleball and the potential to hold tour-naments on the tennis courts.”

The last significant im-provements to the courts took place about 15 years ago, Rogers said.

VETERANS

Keynote speaker atwomen’s conference

COLUMBUSDr. Betty Mosely Brown, Ma-

rine Corps veteran and associate director of the Center for Women Veterans, is keynote speaker at the Ohio Women Veterans Con-ference on Saturday at the Ohio Union on the campus of Ohio State University.

The event is sponsored by the Ohio Department of Veterans Services with support from the Ohio Women Veterans Advisory Committee.

The conference is free, but all attendees must register and have a ticket. Registration is available at the door but without the lunch option.

The conference theme is “Cel-ebrating Generations of Service – 67,000 Veterans Strong.” Topic areas include managing money military style, maximizing mili-tary skills on a civilian resume, support for women veterans in the workplace and access to benefi ts.

In addition to Mosely Brown, more than 20 other speakers will lead nine afternoon breakout sessions, and the Exhibit Hall will feature 50 booths and a chrono-logical photo display about the history of women veterans in Ohio. For information, call 614-644-0898.

‘Shelter to Service’matches vets, dogs

WASHINGTONAmerican Humane’s Lois Pope

LIFE Center for Military Aff airs has launched a new initiative to harness the healing powers of the human-animal bond to help

veterans and more of America’s adoptable animals.

Every day, 20 veterans strug-gling with the invisible wounds of war take their own lives, and 670,000 dogs are euthanized in United States shelters each year.

Vast anecdotal evidence and a growing body of scientifi c re-search show that specialized post-traumatic stress and trau-matic brain-injury service dogs can off er life-changing, and often life-saving, support to aff ected veterans. Waiting lists are long, however, and the training process is time-consuming and can cost $30,000 per dog.

American Humane has an-nounced the fi rst graduating class of service dogs and retired warriors from its new national “Shelter to Service” program.

The initiative rescues shelter dogs and trains them to be ser-vice dogs.

VA mulls linking4 more illnessesto Agent Orange

NEW YORKClay Risen, deputy opinion

editor of The New York Times, recently profi led Dick Pirozzolo and Michael Morris, authors of “Escape from Saigon – a Novel,” for an article on the medical con-sequences of spraying the defoli-ant Agent Orange throughout Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.

Agent Orange was used generi-cally to describe defoliants used during the war.

In his article “Agent Orange and Us,” part of The Times’ yearlong “Vietnam ’67” series, Risen notes the Department of Veterans Aff airs is considering whether to link four more illness-es to Agent Orange exposure and whether to extend benefi ts to Navy and Marine personnel who served off shore.

The ailments are bladder can-cer, Graves’ disease, Parkinson’s diseaselike symptoms and hy-pertension, all of which are more prevalent in Vietnam veterans than those of similar age who did not serve in Vietnam.

Morris suff ers from prostate cancer, which the VA already recognizes. Pirozzolo has been stricken with Graves’ disease and bladder cancer, two of the four under consideration.

Veterans who served stateside and fl ew in airplanes such as the C-123 Provider that transported or sprayed Agent Orange may also qualify for benefi ts if VA rules change, Risen said.

New health care planSCOTTSDALE, ARIZ.

With a focus toward quality-driven and accessible health care for the nation’s 23 million veter-ans, the Veterans Accountable Care Organization and the Veter-

ans Accountable Care Group has launched a new, veterans-centric health care plan.

Composed of a network of community-based providers and support services designed for Veterans, VACO and VACG are accredited by the National Com-mittee on Quality Assurance, a nationally recognized accredita-tion organization dedicated to improving health care quality.

Poll: More vets seekhealth care choices

ARLINGTON, VA.Concerned Veterans for Amer-

ica has released a new poll on vet-erans health care that shows 98 percent of veterans favor giving veterans more health care choice outside of the Department of Veterans Aff airs’ current medical system. The CVA surveyed 1,000 registered voters with an over-sample of veterans.

The poll also shows 92 percent of veterans think it is very or extremely important lawmak-ers in Washington improve the way health care is provided to veterans. In addition, 98 percent of veterans support eff orts to reform the health care veterans receive generally.

Key fi ndings include the fol-lowing: 61 percent of vets think it is diffi cult to access medical care through the VA; 64 percent believe wait times at VA medical facilities are unreasonable; 92 percent think it is extremely or very important that lawmakers in Washington improve the way in which health care services are provided to Veterans; and 98 percent of vets support eff orts to reform the health care veterans receive in this country.

PIKETON, OHIOOffi cials in an Ohio village

are at odds with the U.S. De-partment of Energy over the agency’s plans to store con-taminated waste from the cleanup of a Cold War-era uranium plant.

Piketon offi cials met with a representative from the state Environmental Protec-tion Agency last month to discuss a new plan to create an on-site disposal facility for low-level contaminated at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant in southern Ohio.

An environmental report commissioned by the village said that there is cracked bedrock underneath the area where the Department of Energy has proposed the waste disposal facility be located, The Chillicothe Ga-zette has reported.

The disposal facility has been touted by federal of-fi cials as a cost-saving mea-sure for cleanup of low-level waste produced at the plant. Waste with higher levels of contamination still would be sent elsewhere for dis-posal.

The village’s review said the fractured bedrock could undermine the structural integrity of the proposed landfi ll.

Piketon Mayor Billy Spen-cer said the review shows problems with the process that led to the proposal and accused the Department of Energy of lying to resi-

dents.The manager of the proj-

ect offi ce for the Depart-ment of Energ y, Robert Edwards III, wrote a re-sponse to Spencer, saying offi cials remain confi dent in the accuracy of earlier analyses that the project plans are safe and w i l l have “long-term protec-tiveness of human health a nd t he env ironment.” He said the department would offer a fol low-up briefi ng to go over the re-sponse and answer ques-tions, if needed.

Spencer said that op-position to the creation of the disposal cell has been consistent from the village, the Site Specific Advisory Board, two townships and two school districts in the Piketon area.

He also said that money already spent on the proj-ect should not be consid-ered as hav ing gone to waste if work was stopped, as it has contributed to the economic development of the area.

Energy Secretary Rick Perry was scheduled to visit July 31, but postponed. In a statement, Perry said he had to be at a Cabinet meeting in Washington but hoped to reschedule the visit.

Ohio’s U.S. senators, Re-publican Rob Portman and Democrat Sherrod Brown, have urged Perry to get a fi rsthand look at the cleanup work and its role in the re-gion’s economy.

2 toddlers’ deaths are ruled homicides

WEATHERFORD, TEXAS Autopsies show two North

Texas toddlers died of heat-stroke after investigators say their mother purportedly left them in her hot car for hours to teach them a lesson.

A medical examiner determined the deaths of 2-year-old Juliet Ramirez and 1-year-old Cavanaugh Ramirez were homicides.

Parker County records show the mother, Cynthia Randolph, was arrested in June on counts of injury to a child and remains jailed.

Offi cials say Randolph originally said her children locked themselves in her car. Temperatures were in the 90s. An arrest affi davit says Randolph later said her daughter refused to get out of the car so she locked both toddlers inside to teach them a lesson – thinking they’d exit on their own.

Israel says it plans to ban Al-Jazeera

JERUSALEMIsrael said Sunday it plans

to ban Qatar’s fl agship Al-Jazeera network from op-erating in the country over allegations it incites vio-lence, joining Arab nations that have shut down the broadcaster amid a sepa-rate political dispute. The news organization, in turn, said it will take legal action.

Communications Minister Ayoob Kara said he plans to revoke the press credentials of Al-Jazeera journalists, ef-fectively preventing them from working in Israel.

Kara said he has asked cable and satellite networks to block Al-Jazeera transmis-sions and is seeking legisla-tion to ban them altogether.

Kara, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netan-yahu’s Likud Party, gave no timetable for such measures.

Former war-crimes prosecutor quits panelprobing Syria abuses

GENEVAFormer war-crimes pros-

ecutor Carla Del Ponte says she is resigning from the U.N.’s independent Com-mission of Inquiry on Syria, decrying Security Council inaction to hold criminals accountable in the war-bat-tered country where “every-one is bad.”

In comments published Sunday by the Swiss maga-zine Blick, Del Ponte ex-pressed frustration about the commission and criti-cized President Bashar As-sad’s government, the Syrian opposition and the interna-tional community overall.

Del Ponte, who gained fame as the prosecutor for the inter-national war-crimes tribunals that investigated atrocities in Rwanda and Yugoslavia, has repeatedly decried the Secu-rity Council’s refusal to ap-point a similar court for Syria’s 6 1⁄2-year-old civil war.

Rare August tornado sends 30 to hospitalAssociated Press

OKLAHOMA CITYA rare late-summer tornado smashed

into a shopping district of Tulsa early Sun-day just hours after it was packed with peo-ple, sending more than two dozen people to hospitals including two with life-threat-ening injuries, many of them from restau-rants that were either preparing to close or were still open.

No deaths were reported from the tor-nado that struck shortly after 1 a.m. in the midtown area of Tulsa, according to city of Tulsa spokeswoman Kim Meloy.

National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Teague said the tornado was rated an EF2, with wind speeds of 111-135 mph and that two smaller, “probably” EF0 tornadoes with winds of 65-85 mph were seen shortly afterward on radar near Inola and Clare-more, about 25 miles east and northeast of

Tulsa.Emergency Medical Services Authority

spokeswoman Kelli Bruer said the ambu-lance company transported 13 people to area hospitals: eight from a TGI Fridays restaurant, which lists its closing time as 1 a.m., four from a 24-hour Whataburger restaurant, and one person who was in the area.

St. Francis Hospital spokeswoman Lau-ren Landwerlin said about 30 people were treated at the hospital. Meloy said many people were taken to hospitals by private vehicles.

The timing of the storm was fortunate, according to Meloy, because hundreds, if not thousands of people were in the area only hours earlier.

The estimated one-square-mile area re-mained blocked off Sunday while crews worked to remove the debris, Meloy said.

DEDHAM, MASS.A man charged with abus-

ing a dog so severely it had to be euthanized is head-ing to trial nearly four years after the dog that came to be known as Puppy Doe was found barely alive on a playground.

Radoslaw Czerkawski faces mult iple animal-cruelty charges in a trial scheduled to start Tuesday in Massachusetts.

The case received wide-spread attention when the year-old pit bull mix was found in Quincy in 2013 with skull, spine and rib fractures, a stab wound to the right eye and a split tongue. The starving female dog was euthanized.

Czerkawski has pleaded not guilty and suggested youths he saw drinking

in a park were responsible for the abuse. His attorney

has questioned the DNA evidence.

PAULDING, OHIOFederal officials joined

local authorities Sunday as the search continues for an Ohio rape suspect who overpowered a deputy sheriff in a transport van, stole his gun and ammuni-tion and fl ed.

Paulding County Sheriff Jason Landers said Sunday that authorities, including the FBI and U.S. Marshals, were working around the clock to find 32-year-old Branden Lee Powell, who escaped around noon Fri-day on an 80-mile trip from a psychiatric hospital in To-ledo to the Paulding Coun-ty Jail in northwest Ohio.

According to Landers, Powell was in leg shackles and in handcuffs secured

to a bel ly belt when he jumped o v e r t h e s e a t a n d p u t t h e deputy in a head lock, c a u s i n g the van to

crash into a ditch. Powell managed to get the depu-ty’s gun during a struggle and ordered the deputy at gunpoint to remove his restraints.

Powell then handcuffed the deputy to the steering wheel and disabled the van’s police radio and en-gine before fleeing, Land-ers said.

Powell was jailed July 8 and indicted on rape, at-tempted rape and sexual-battery charges.

VALENCIA, VENEZUELASoldiers battled for three

hours Sunday morning against a small band of anti-government fighters who snuck onto a Venezu-elan army base, apparently intent on fomenting an up-rising, President Nicolas Maduro said.

Troops killed two of the intruders, wounded anoth-er and captured seven, but 10 others got away, the em-battled leader announced in his weekly broadcast on state television.

“We know where they are headed and all of our military and police force is deployed,” Maduro said. He said he would ask for “the maximum penalty for those who participated in this terrorist attack.”

The incident happened during the early hours at the Paramacay base in the central city of Valencia. Residents who live nearby said they heard repeated

bursts of gunfire starting around 4:30 a.m.

A video showing more than a dozen men dressed in military fatigues, some carrying rifles, began cir-culating widely on social media around that time. In the recording, a man who identified himself as Capt. Juan Caguaripano said the men were mem-bers of the military who oppose Maduro’s social-ist government and called on military units to de-clare themselves in open rebellion.

“This is not a coup d’etat,” the man said. “This is a civic and military action to re-establish the constitu-tional order.”

Twenty men entered the base, catching soldiers on night watch by surprise, Maduro said. The intrud-ers managed to reach the base’s weapons depot before an alarm sound-ed, alerting troops to the incursion.

BRIDGEWATER, N.J.Vice President Mike

Pence has pushed back against a news report suggesting he is laying groundwork for a possible presidential bid in 2020 if President Donald Trump does not run.

In a statement released by the White House, Pence said Sunday’s story in The New York Times “is dis-graceful and offensive to me, my family, and our en-tire team.” He added that “the allegations in this arti-cle are categorically false.”

The formal rebuttal of a news report by the vice president was an unusual move. In it, Pence also said his team will “focus all our efforts to advance the pres-ident’s agenda and see him re-elected in 2020.”

The report details efforts of several Republicans looking ahead to 2020,

calling it a “ s h a d o w campaign.” I t n o t e s P e n c e ’ s p o l i t i c a l s c h e d u l e and active f u nd r a i s-ing, though it also says unnamed ad-visers have signaled that he’d only run if Trump doesn’t.

The article noted Pence has set up a fundraising committee. Called the Great America Committee, it can accept checks of up to $5,000 from individual donors. Pence raised about $1 million at a Washing-ton fundraiser last month, attended by dozens of lawmakers and featuring remarks from White House adviser Ivanka Trump.

Trump has not suggest-ed he won’t seek a second term.

NEW YORKFor the third time in six

months, President Donald Trump is on the hunt for a new communications di-rector. But in practice, the job is fi lled.

It’s Trump who’s the White House’s leading expert and the fi nal word on what and how he communicates with the public. Despite decrying most negative media cover-age as “fake news” and per-sonally insulting members of the media, he has insert-ed himself into the White House’s press operations in an unprecedented fashion for a president.

Tr u mp ha s d ic t ate d news releases and pushed those who speak for him to bend the facts to bolster his claims. He has ignored the advice of his legal team and thrown out carefully planned legislative strate-gies with a single 140-char-acter tweet.

His direct, hands-on style helped him win the White House and still thrills his supporters. It also, however, poses increasing political and potentially legal risks. The clearest example is his involvement in crafting a statement for son Donald Jr. about a meeting with a Kremlin-connected law-yer. That declaration was quickly proven erroneous

and raised questions about whether the president was trying to cover for his son.

Trump has struggled to f ind a communications adv iser t hat meets his approval.

There have been some informal internal conver-sations about an increased communications role for White House aide Stephen Miller, according to an ad-ministration official who was not authorized to dis-cuss private talks by name and requested anonymity.

This past week, as White House staffers readied a statement accompanying Trump’s signature on legis-lation approving toughened sanctions on Russia – a bill Trump criticized – word came down that the presi-dent wanted to add some off-topic language into the statement.

“I built a truly great com-pany worth many billions of dollars,” the new section read. “That is a big part of the reason I was elected. As president, I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress.”

That personal and boast-ful rhetoric is a far cry from the formal language nor-mally found in presidential statements. It also appeared aimed at angering the same lawmakers he will need if he wants to pass any major

legislation.“All presidents are their

own best messengers,” said Ari Fleischer, press secre-tary for President George W. Bush. Fleischer said that Bush, too, would at times get involved with the White House press shop.

Fleischer noted there was always a safety net of advis-ers at work. That does not appear to exist around the current president – par-ticular around his Twitter account.

“The lesson for this presi-dent is that it’s perfectly fi ne to be involved and to, at times, go around the main-stream media with Twitter,” Fleischer said. “But he needs to tweet smarter.”

Corra l l ing t he presi-dent’s impulses is a chal-lenge that now falls to new White House chief of staff John Kelly, a four-star Ma-rine general tasked with straightening out an un-ruly West Wing. But many Trump allies don’t believe he’ll alter his ways.

“The reality is President Trump is sitting in the Oval Offi ce,” said Sam Nunberg, a former campaign staffer. “And before that, he was a mogul with a business that spanned continents. He did it his way. He’s not going to change. It got him where he is and it will keep him where he is.”

T H E P E O P L E ’ S PA P E R � Founded June 1869

FRANK C. WATSON, PROMINENTbusiness leader and philanthro-pist, lived the Scriptural precept,

“From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”

Altruism was not second-nature to Watson; it was his nature.

He lived his life in the service to others – family, friends and community – and was unrelenting in the pursuit of his passion: Youngstown State University’s success.

Watson’s death Thursday after a 10-year battle with Parkinson’s disease will leave a void in the life of the Ma-honing Valley. The 92-year-old native of New York who was proud to call this region home was a good man, as those who knew him will attest. He had no ulterior motives in his service to the public, which is why his involvement was eagerly sought when a community initiative was being launched.

As president of Youngstown Weld-ing and Engineering Co. from 1959 to 1998, he earned a reputation as a hard worker who treated his employees and business associates with respect.

But it was Watson’s philanthropy and caring that defi ned him.

Last year, he and his wife of almost 68 years, Norma, donated $1 million to YSU to support the development of a Student Success Center on campus.

During the announcement, attended by daughter, Ellen, and her husband, YSU President James P. Tressel, it was noted that the Watsons have been a driving force in the university’s growth and development for more than four decades.

In his brief remarks, Frank Watsonshowed why he had earned great respect from the university community.

“It has been our privilege to watch YSU evolve and grow into the respected institution of higher education that it is today. We are honored and blessed to be able to make this pledge and support one of the Valley’s greatest assets.”

IMPORTANCE OF GIFTWhile the Frank and Norma Student

Success Center isn’t the only gift to YSU, it is one of the most important. The center provides students with pro-grams and assistance to facilitate their academic development.

“The success of our students, matric-ulating from admission to graduation, is paramount to our future, and we believe this is yet another step to help make that happen,” Tressel said about the center.

Student retention and graduation are priorities for Ohio as it recalibrates public higher education. With the state funding formula no longer centered on enrollment, institutions such as YSU are under pressure to meet the goals set by Columbus.

Before becoming president of YSU, Tres-sel was executive vice president of student success at the University of Akron.

Paul McFadden, president of the YSU Foundation, the designated philan-thropic arm of the university, had this to say of the $1 million gift:

“The Frank and Norma Watson Student Success Center will help thousands of students reach their edu-cational goals and will serve as a lasting legacy to the Watsons’ lifelong devotion to YSU.”

Over the years, Frank and Norma Watson have made significant dona-tions for YSU’s Stambaugh Stadium, the Scholarship Loge program, the Andrews Student Recreation and Wellness Cen-ter and the Watson and Tressel Training Site, an indoor training facility.

Frank Watson, who graduated in 1949 from YSU’s School of Engineering, was a member of the university’s board of trustees from 1978 to 1987 and was one of the original members of the YSU Foundation board of trustees.

He also served as president of the Greater Youngstown Area Chamber of Commerce, was a member of the Canfi eld Board of Education from 1967 to 1975 and was Canfi eld city manager from 1989 to 1991.

Watson served on the boards of the Dollar Savings and Trust Co., Ohio Ban-corp, Ohio Edison and the Youngstown Hospital Association.

In addition to his wife, Norma, who has long volunteered for many area or-ganizations, Frank Watson is survived by daughters Ellen Tressel and Janet Ste-phens, four grandchildren and two great grandchildren. A son, David, is deceased.

Frank Watson’s life is refl ected in this quotation by Robert South, an Englishclergyman: “If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.”

The Heritage Foundation

Last year marked the 20th anniversary of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program. This law, common-ly called TANF, was historic because through it, for the fi rst time in modern history, a social welfare program was reformed so that it would actually help r e c ipient s mov e up t he economic ladder.

Its goal was not only to provide fi scal assistance, but to help people fi nd jobs and gain skills to increase their long-term employability. Within 10 years of reform, TANF helped more than 2.7 million families move into jobs and toward self-sufficiency. No other social-welfare reform has seen this kind of success.

Over the years, however, the original work requirement embedded in TANF has been eroded. States have found loop-holes and claim credit for plac-ing people in jobs when all they have really done is game the system.

Regulations passed during the Obama administration shrank the work requirement by allowing states to receive credit for work simply by spend-ing more of their own state dol-lars on social services. They also allow states to claim credit for efforts by nonprofi ts and other groups to aid the poor.

Furthermore, the Obama administration sought to, in effect, eliminate the work requirement by allowing states a waiver if they had an “alter-native” plan to promote work and job preparation. By using multiple loopholes, states have artifi cially infl ated their work rates, which explains recent gains in this measurement.

In the typical state, nearly half of the work-eligible TANF case-load is completely idle. Another 39 percent is employed; how-ever, this employment is gen-erally not the result of positive efforts by state welfare agen-cies to reduce dependence and promote work. Instead, most states have simply expanded program eligibility to allow families with part-time or low-wage employment to receive partial TANF benefi ts. In most cases, the state welfare agency has done little or nothing to prompt this employment.

Finally, 13 percent of work-eligible TANF recipients are en-gaged in “work activation” to generate future employment. This includes training, job preparation, community ser-vice and monitored job search. Work activation should be the core TANF operation, but in most states, it is rare.

STATISTICAL GIMMICKSEven worse, states have proven

adept at creating statistical gimmicks to create the false impression that they are ag-gressively promoting work. For example, in 2015, California created a new policy offering a token TANF payment of $10 per month to 175,000 low-income families, nearly all of whom were already employed. The addition of these token pay-ment families to the California TANF rolls caused the state’s TANF “work participation rate” to nearly double between 2014 and 2015.

The surge in “work” in Cali-fornia was so large that it raised the national work participation fi gures for 2015. An estimated 11 more states also use token payment schemes to game the system and manipulate their apparent TANF work rates. If the misleading data from these

states are removed, the actual national TANF work participa-tion rate in 2015 falls from 48 percent to around 29 percent.

It is clear that states are doing the bare minimum to engage able-bodied adults in finding employment. This is a far cry from the initial reaction states had to the new TANF law in 1996.

At first, they stepped up to the plate and met the challenge by turning social workers into job-assistance managers. They found employers in their states and contracted with them to provide skill-training and employment opportunities. They also contracted with well-respected nonprofit entities, such as the Salvation Army, to help find jobs for their able-bodied benefi ciaries, including those with mild disabilities.

It is time to right this ship and correct its course. Any TANF reauthorization should close the loopholes in the work requirement, rescind t he Obama-era anti-work provi-sions and put stronger work r e q u i r e m e n t s i n p l a c e , requiring nearly all able-bodied adults to perform at least some kind of work or job-preparation activity.

Further, the example of the TANF work requirement should be expanded and replicated throughout the federal welfare system, which now extends to over 80 other means-tested programs. Their goals should not simply be to provide some kind of temporary aid, such as food stamps, but rather to help individuals and families move toward economic freedom and employment.Katherine Bradley is a visiting research fellow and Robert Rector is a senior research fellow in the Institute for Family, Community, and Opportunity at The Heritage Foundation.

By PAULA MOOREPeople for the Ethical Treatment

of Animals

By now, you’ve surely seen – or at least heard about – the video out of Florida that has outraged the inter-net. In the clip, a shark is dragged by a rope behind a speedboat, while the people on board laugh. The shark’s body slams against the sur-face of the choppy water, and in addition to suffering from this trauma, the shark is likely also suffocating from the lack of water pass-ing through his or her gills. Florida Gov. Rick Scott said, “The brutality and disre-spect shown to this animal is sickening,” and has called on state officials to review Florida fishing regulations “to ensure such inhumane acts are strictly prohibited.” Reportedly, the same people who shot this disturbing clip also posted a photo of the shark’s mangled body, torn to pieces by their abuse.

How many more exam-ples of such total disregard for life must we witness before we humans finally understand that bul ly-ing and killing animals for alcohol-fueled antics and narcissistic selfi es is wrong?

Sadly, there seems to be no limit to the number and species of animals manhan-dled by ignorant gawkersfor photo and video ops – from a baby dolphin yanked out of the water and passed a rou nd by tou r ist s to peacocks grabbed out of a zoo exhibit for selfi es – but sharks seem to bear the brunt of the abuse.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Com-mission is investigating a second video, possibly of the same boat crew respon-sible for the shark-dragging incident, showing a ham-merhead shark being used as a “beer bong”: A man positioned beneath the shark drinks beer as it’s poured through the ani-mal’s gills.

INHUMANE BEHAVIORLast year, a video and

photos circulated showing a group of men, purport-edly lifeguards at a hotel in the Dominican Republic, dragging a shark out of the water and forcing the ani-mal’s face into the sand. The shark died. A few months earlier, video footage had surfaced of a man in Florida pulling a struggling shark from the ocean and pinning down the resistant animal while mugging for the cam-era. It’s unclear whether that shark survived the encounter.

Com ment i ng on t he speedboat video, Neil Ham-merschlag, a shark expert at the University of Miami, told the Miami Herald, “Maybe if you’re able to overcome a big shark, there’s a sense of accomplishment. But there’s other ways to express that, and certainly animal crueltyis not a good one. You know – arm wrestle.”

L i ke us, sha rk s have unique personalities, and they socialize and form friendships.

Porbeagle sharks have been obser ved play ing with objects fl oating in the water, repeatedly rolling themselves in kelp fronds and chasing after other sharks who trailed pieces of kelp behind them.

Biologist Peter Best once witnessed several great whites working together to move the carcass of a partially beached whale to deeper waters so that they could eat it.

Sharks have long-term memories, they teach each other how to fi nd food, they can perceive optical illu-sions and they feel pain.

Bullying an animal who just wants to be left alone is not brave. It’s not funny. It’s pathetic. If any good can come of the outcry over these sickening videos, per-haps it’s that more people will understand that ani-mals aren’t playthings for us to use and abuse – and leave them in peace.Paula Moore is a senior writer for the PETA Foundation.

Work is the key to welfare reform

Despite the astronomical pay of Oprah, Serena Williams and other celebrities, African-American women are still not earning as much money as men.

Monday, July 31, was Black Women’s Equal Pay Day. It rec-ognized, among other things, that black women must work 19 months to earn what white men earn in 12, according to the Economic Policy Institute. Every year, we start out behind.

The gap for Latina women is even greater. Latina Women Equal Pay Day this year is not until November, symbolizing the larger discrepancy.

In a nation where single black women head about two-thirds of African-American families, the impact of low wages on the stability and upward mobility of the whole racial community is staggering. Many determined men and women find that they have to work two or three jobs in order to support their families. The feminization of poverty is tragically real.

The Economic Policy Insti-tute found that average pay for

black women with bachelor’s degrees is $24.13 per hour, as compared to $38.63 per hour on average for white men with bachelor’s degrees.

Why is there such a disparity? There are many reasons. Some black women still gravitate toward traditionally female-dominated professions such as teaching elementary school, where salaries have been low-er than those commanded by men. Some higher-paying jobs in science and engineering fi elds require specifi c training, but even within those indus-tries, women make less than men.

I have worked in places where I knew I was being paid less than my male counterparts. Along with less money also came less respect. I once held a job at a corporation that marked work-ers’ prestige with furniture. As the newest hire, I was not told this until a young white male was hired for the same job as mine and they needed to give me the same furniture as him in order to not discriminate. I had been slighted for a year without even knowing it.

Black women also face ha-

rassment and ostracism on the job. Even Serena Williams, one of the highest paid and most accomplished athletes, has en-dured slurs and taunts in center courts throughout the world.

Recently, according to The Guardian, Ilie Nastase, a retired Romanian tennis player, alleg-edly made a racist comment about Williams’ unborn child and was heard calling her and another woman tennis player “bitches.” And John McEnroe, a white American star, said Williams, who has won 23 grand slam championships, would “be like 700” in the world rankings if she played on the men’s circuit.

When asked by The Guardian what she wants for her unborn daughter, Williams said, “If my daughter were to play in a sport, and she was able to have equal prize money, or equal pay, or equal rights, I feel like that would be a success. And if not, I would really want her to speak up for it. Any daughter of mine will have a voice.”Starita Smith is an award-winning writer, edi-tor and sociologist based in Irving, Texas.

TCAP expands with 7th location, promotes center-based play

‘Accidental learning’ has purposeBy AMANDA TONOLI

atonoli@vindy.com

WARRENCenter-based play draws in more

than 600 students to attend Trum-bull Community Action Program’s Head Start school.

“Sometimes I like to call it ‘ac-cidental learning,’” said Ashley Murphy, TCAP teacher. “Students are playing and having fun and learning their basics as they go along.”

TCAP, which has been in exis-tence for more than 50 years, re-cently expanded its facilities by opening a new location at Wildare United Methodist Church, 7211 North Park Ave.

The new location, called Trum-bull Northwest Head Start, will be open for the upcoming 2017-18 school year. The classroom at Trumbull Northwest will be an all-day classroom.

“Our students get to look and explore,” Murphy said. “We have a creative section with painting and coloring, a math and manipulat-ing center, a computer center with tablets, educational games and even a writing center.”

Students learn color recogni-tion, how to mimic letters, how to become familiar with technology and more, Murphy added.

“It’s just really neat to see the students progress throughout the year, from the beginning to the end,” she said. “We offer a lot of different things not all schools can offer.”

In addition to students’ acci-dental learning, TCAP has staff

dedicated to taking care of other parts of the family, said Lily Riddle, TCAP registrar.

S o m e o f t h e services include: Food Buying Club, a twice-a-month program that con-sists of three bags

with fresh fruits and vegetables, a bread product, a meat item, eggs and other miscellaneous items for $18; Community Action Trans-portation System, low-cost trans-portation for those who quali-fy for their services; help with household chores for seniors; the R.I.S.E Program, a GED program for any adult whose children are enrolled in TCAP Head Start; and much more.

“We are for the whole family,” Riddle said.

TCAP, which is free, serves low-income families, but also w h at t he y c on sider “over-income” depending on the space available.

Riddle said she encourages all families to apply.

“Here at TCAP, we are trying to prepare these kids and get them

exposure at a young age,” said Michael Santillo , TCAP public-relations offi cer. “We’re all about providing a quality education for these kids as well as preparing them for kindergarten and be-yond.”

TCAP has seven Head Start Cen-ters across Trumbull County. Lo-cations are: Warren West, Niles, Hubbard, Newton Falls, Hart-ford, Kinsman and now Trumbull Northwest.

Classes for the 2017-18 school year begin Aug. 23. Enrollment is open. Registration can be complet-ed at TCAP, 1230 Palmyra Road, or online at http://tcaphelps.org/menus/head-start.html.

For information, contact the registration offi ce at 330-393-2507, ext. 222 or 271 .

COLUMBUSExcessive corrosion on

a support beam caused a “catastrophic failure” of a thrill ride at the Ohio State Fair that killed an 18-year-old man and injured seven others, the ride’s Dutch manufacturer said in a statement posted Sunday on Facebook.

The statement said KMG officials traveled to the ac-cident scene in Columbus to review video footage of the July 26 accident and con-duct metallurgical tests of the beam.

“It was determined that excessive corrosion on the interior of the gondola sup-port beam dangerously reduced the beam’s wall thickness over the years,” the statement said. “This fi -nally led to a catastrophic failure of the ride during operation.”

The company said the spinning and swinging ride called the Fire Ball was 18 years old.

Tyler Jarrell died of blunt-force trauma injuries after

being tossed 50 feet into the air when the ride broke apart. Four of the injured remained hospitalized last week, including an 18-year-old woman in a coma and Jarrell’s 18-year-old girl-friend. Jarrell’s family has hired an attorney to possi-bly pursue a wrongful-death lawsuit.

All other rides on the fair’s midway were ordered shut down the night of the accident but eventually re-opened. Sunday was the fair’s last day.

Ohio Department of Ag-riculture records showed passing marks on inspec-tions for Fire Ball on about three dozen items, includ-ing possible cracks, brakes, pr op e r a s s e m bl y a nd installation.

Michael Vartorella, Ohio’s chief inspector of amuse-ment ride safety, said the Fire Ball was inspected three or four times before the fair opened. Amuse-ments of America, the com-pany that provides rides to the state fair, said its staff also had inspected the ride.

warmed up poorly and then turned in the best round of his career at the Bridgestone Invitational, a 9-under 61 that tied the course record and gave him another blowout vic-tory in a World Golf Cham-pionship.

It was the lowest final round in four decades at Firestone Country Club and led to a fi ve-shot vic-tory over Zach Johnson.

Matsuyama knew from experience that the course

record was a 61 because he was in the same group when Tiger Woods shot 61 in the second round in 2013. All it would take was birdies on the last three holes, and like everything else Sunday, the 25-year-old from Japan made it look easy.

“I knew 61 was the num-ber,” Matsuyama said through his interpreter. “I was thinking about that at

16. I knew if I birdied 16, 17, 18 I could get there.”

He spun a wedge back to 4 feet on the par-5 16th for birdie. He holed an 8-foot putt on the 17th hole and then closed with another approach and settled 6 feet away. Matsuyama, who began the fi nal round two shots behind Johnson and Thomas Pieters, finished at 15-under 265.

A fl y ball, the sun and Abraham Almonte combined to give them one.

Almonte misplayed Jacoby Ellsbury’s shot to right field in the sixth inning into a three-run triple, Luis Severino overpow-ered Cleveland’s lineup into the seventh inning and Aaron Judge hammered a three-run homer as New York rolled to a 8-1 win over the Indians on Sunday.

With the score tied 1-1 in the

him as the laps dwindled at Watkins Glen International, and Martin Truex Jr. stuck to the plan. In the end, he was the one laughing in victory lane.

Truex held off a charg-i n g M a t t Kenseth on the final lap and won the N A S C A R C u p r a c e on Sunday at The Glen, s t r e t c h i n g his fuel to the triumphant end. It was the second road course victory of his career.

“I’ve wanted to win here for a long time. This is a big one for our team,” Truex said. “I never ran 100 per-cent because I didn’t have to. I ran hard enough [on the last lap] to just try to manage that gap.”

Truex gained the lead when Penske Racing’s Brad Keselowski in the No. 2 Ford and Ryan Blaney in the No. 21 Ford for the Wood Broth-ers were forced to pit in the fi nal three laps.

“It’s excruciating to go that slow here and try to save that much fuel,” Truex said. “The toughest part, really, was just watching the No. 2 pass and go on, and then watch-ing the No. 21 pass and go on. It’s like, ‘All right, if they don’t run out of gas, we’re going to look really dumb.’ Fortunately, it worked out for us.”

Trailing by 3 seconds after saving fuel for several laps, Truex assumed the lead in his No. 78 Toyota when Blaney ducked into the pits

POLANDFamily and friends of

the Poland Junior Little Leag ue softba l l team gathered at Bruno’s late Sunday to greet the team after its 7-1 win over Wash-ington Saturday in the Ju-nior League World Series championship game in Kirkland, Wash.

The team r e t u r n e d Sunday night after fl ying to Pittsburgh.

Fans held signs, ban-ners and candles as they waited in the parking lot of Poland High School.

Fa mi ly a nd f r iends welcomed the team with cheers of “OH-IO” and ap-plause as they exited their

CANTONDavid Baker has a vision.He sees a state-of-the-art

stadium; eight fi elds in a youth sports complex (plus three more on campus); an indoor arena; a center for athletic per-formance and safety; a player care center; and a hotel. All of it — and more — surrounding the Pro Football Hall of Fame, of which Baker is president & CEO.

He envisions staging an NFL draft onsite. College cham-pionships in footba l l and other sports. Concerts, the-atrical perfor-

mances and conventions. And a celebration of the NFL’s cen-tennial in 2020.

His vision is in the process of coming to fruition, as any-one who attended last week’s induction ceremonies, Hall of Fame game and other events that make up the Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinement week can attest.

“If Disney [properties are the ‘Happiest Place on Earth,’” Baker says, “we want to be the ‘Most Inspiring Place on Earth.’

“Football is a great metaphor for leadership, and we can play a role. The game has an incred-ible history, and kids can get to learn to play the game the right way. We can help build men and women the right way. We can help take care of play-ers — former players like our ‘Gold Jackets’ [a term used to refer to living Hall of Famers], present and future players. We can enhance the experience for fans.

“The question is, ‘How can we help build through foot-ball?’ I think we have the op-portunity to, if you will, help American huddle up.”

There certainly will be plac-es at the Canton complex to do so, with a potential for the Johnson Controls Hall of Fame Village to extend to 600 acres. At a cost of perhaps nearly $800 million for what the folks at Johnson Controls are calling the world’s fi rst sports and en-tertainment “smart city.”

Baker calls it a “smart city with a heart.”

Baker, who as commissioner of the Arena Football League for 12 years helped grow team values from $175,000 to as much as $32 million, knows something about building a brand. Since he assumed his role at the Hall of Fame, Bak-er has enhanced the Canton shrine’s profi le among football fans, NFL team owners and — perhaps a necessary evil these days — sponsors.

This year, while the overall village project moves forward,

Baird Brothers third in Palomino World Series

SANTA CLARA, CALIF.Baird Brothers made history in

the PONY Palomino World Series over the weekend, going farther than any Youngstown team ever has in the event.

Baird Brothers had reached the semifi nals with two wins on Saturday, but fell to host Santa Clara 3-1 on Sunday.

Joey Rock started and worked the fi rst three innings, allowing all three runs for the Soldiers. Dom Michael pitched four scoreless in-nings of relief.

The Baird Brothers’ bats, which had been mostly hot dur-ing the tournament, were mostly quiet Sunday.

Jimmy Nixon singled and doubled and Mike Turner and Travis Perry added singles for Baird Brothers, which completed the 2017 season with an overall record of 42-11.

Darren Daulton, 55;was all-star catcher

PHILADELPHIADarren Daulton, the All-Star

catcher who was the leader of the Philadelphia Phillies’ NL champi-onship team in 1993, has died. He was 55.

Daulton had battled brain cancer since 2013. He had two tumors removed during brain surgery on July 1, 2013, but nine days later was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer that also took the lives of his former teammate Tug McGraw and former coach John Vukovich.

Daulton played 14 1⁄2 of his 15 major league seasons with Phila-delphia and fi nished his career with the 1997 World Series cham-pion Florida Marlins, batting .389 (7 for 18) with two doubles and one homer in a seven-game se-ries against Cleveland.

The left-handed hitting Daulton batted .245 with 137 homers and 588 RBIs in 1,161 games. He went to three All-Star games and led the NL with 109 RBIs in 1992.

The long-haired Daulton was beloved by Phillies fans and respected by teammates. He policed a wild clubhouse in ’93 that included Lenny Dykstra, John Kruk, Dave Hollins, Pete In-caviglia, Mitch Williams and Curt Schilling.

Clippers’ Reed jailedafter domestic dispute

MIAMINew Los Angeles Clippers cen-

ter Willie Reed was jailed Sunday in Miami on a battery charge.

His wife told police that he dragged her across the apart-ment while wrestling for a purse and later pulled her hair and grabbed her by the wrist during an argument Saturday night, ac-cording to the police report.

Reed’s wife told police the argument started when she told her husband she wanted a di-vorce. She said she was knocked to the ground while struggling over her purse and dragged around the apartment until the strap broke. She also alleged Reed tore her shirt as she went to the lobby of the apartment build-ing to notify the concierge, then returned to get her two children.

When the woman picked up her youngest son and started to exit the apartment again, she told police that Reed grabbed her by the hair to take the child back, then grabbed her left wrist and twisted her arm.

Home Team in CAPS

Poland, we went all the way and won it all and all these people want to come see us,” Farber said. “All of our friends came to support us and they wanted to see us right away, as soon as we get home.

“They didn’t even think about it. They obviously wanted to come.”

Fans met around 11 p.m. and held a welcome back party. The team was later es-corted by the Poland Police Department to Poland High School early Monday.

Their fl ight was delayed in Chicago after the plane was held on the runway after a wing collided with a vehicle prior to take-off.

“It’s such a close-knit community, Poland, and the fact that all these fans and people c a m e o u t on a Sunday night — you know they got to get up in the morning — and show up the support for these girls it means a lot to us,” Poland head coach Matt Bobbey said.

“All these people make it happen because we have a

community that supports one another and whatever sport it is, we have cham-pions in every sport,” Bob-bey said. “Our community rallies around each other in times like this.

“It’s just great to see.”Janeen Lattanzio, a wife

of assistant coach Andrew Lattanzio and a mother of catcher Camryn Lattanzio, said the championship was important for the players

and parents because of the closeness of the team.

“A lot of these girls have played together since they were 9 and 10. To see all that hard work come to fruition, to win the biggest game out there, was just great,” Mrs. Lattanzio said. “Honestly, they play as a team 100 per-cent. They are friends, they love each other and they are so selfl ess when it comes to playing on the fi eld.

“That’s the best thing about it.”

Gina Harper, Brooke Bob-bey’s aunt, traveled to Wash-ington to see the team win the title. She said the team “played as a family” and the girls gave all they had throughout the season.

“They love the game,” Harper said. “With them be-ing in love with the game, this made the outcome even more awesome.”

FALCONS

Collins suspended 10 games for PEDs

FLOWERY BRANCH, GA.For the second straight year,

Atlanta Falcons cornerback Jalen Collins will be suspended for the start of the season for a violation of the league’s policy on performance enhancers.

This time, the suspension carries a bigger bite: 10 games.

The NFL announced Sunday that Collins has been suspend-ed without pay for the fi rst 10 games of the 2017 season. He was suspended for the fi rst four games in 2016.

Collins, a second-round pick in 2015, has said he failed drug tests at Louisiana State.

The suspension will be costly to the Falcons’ depth. Collins started six games last season and had two interceptions. He moved into the lineup after star cornerback Desmond Trufant was placed on IR with a torn pectoral muscle.

Collins will be eligible to return to the active roster fol-lowing the team’s game against Seattle on Nov. 20.

BILLS

Tackle Cordy Glenn returns to practice

PITTSFORD, N.Y. Buff alo Bills starting left tack-

le Cordy Glenn has returned to practice and feels reassured after having a nagging left foot injury examined by a specialist.

Without discussing the exact nature of the injury, Glenn says a plan has been put in place freeing him up to practice fol-lowing his visit to Dr. Robert Anderson in Charlotte, North Carolina on Thursday. Glenn said visited Anderson to get a better understanding of why his foot has been bothering him for much of the off season.

Glenn expects to be ready for the start of the regular season and answered, “No, not right now,” when asked if he feels there is any risk of aggravating the injury.

The Bills’ top-paid off ensive lineman spoke after practicing with the starting unit Sunday. Glenn was held out the previ-ous two sessions, and had been limited during the fi rst six prac-tices of training camp.

DOLPHINS

Cutler agrees to one more year

DAVIE, FLA.Jay Cutler has decided to

postpone retirement for the chance to be Ryan Tannehill’s replacement.

Cutler agreed to terms Sunday on a contract with the Miami Dolphins, a person famil-iar with the situation said. The person confi rmed the agree-ment to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Dolphins weren’t expected to announce the deal until Cutler signed the $10 mil-lion, one-year deal.

Cutler will compete with Matt Moore for a starting job while Tannehill remains out with a left knee injury that could sideline him for the entire season.

Dolphins coach Adam Gase was off ensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears when Cutler had a career-best quarterback rating with them in 2015. Gase joined Miami in 2016, and Cutler parted with Chicago in March after eight seasons.

Cutler, 34, drew little inter-est in the spring as a free agent, perhaps partly because of his prickly personality and tenden-cy for turnovers.

Johnson pulled within one shot with a long birdie putt at the 11th, but he could do no better than pars the rest of the way and shot 68.

Pieters was never in the game after missing 4-foot par putts on successive holes to close out the front nine. He closed with a 71.

The only other player with a

chance was Charley Hoffman, who also was one shot behind on the back nine. Hoffman was three shots behind on the par-5 16th hole when his caddie suggested laying up because there was no place to get it close by going for the green 282 yards away.

“I’m trying to win a tourna-ment,” Hoffman said. “I’m tired of fi nishing second.”

He ripped a 3-wood onto the green and over the back into light rough, chipped weakly to 15 feet and made par anyway. He wound up with a 66 to fi nish third, though it was a big step in trying to make

his fi rst Presidents Cup team.Matsuyama’s fi nal birdie broke

by one shot the lowest fi nal round by a winner at Firestone. Fulton Allem shot 62 when he won the old World Series of Golf in 1993.

Matsuyama stays at No. 3 in the world by a fraction behind Spieth, though he takes plenty of momen-tum into the PGA Championship next week as he tries to become the fi rst player from Japan to win a major.

He’ll carry plenty of pressure, too.

Matsuyama moved into elite company last fall in a stretch of

six tournaments in which he won four times and was runner-up the other two times. He added to his profi le with a playoff victory to win the Phoenix Open for the second straight year.

And while he has played well in the majors, including a runner-up fi nish to Brooks Koepka in the U.S. Open, he has yet to seriously contend.

“I haven’t really played well at Quail Hollow, but hopefully I can keep my game up and do well there,” Matsuyama said. “All I can do is my best. I know a lot of us have tried from Japan to win ma-jors. Hopefully, some day it will

happen.”Rory McIlroy got within one

shot of the lead on the front nine with three birdies in six holes until his momentum stalled with a few missed putts. He stumbled on the back nine and shot 69, leaving him in a tie for fi fth with Russell Knox, Paul Casey and Adam Hadwin.

Spieth closed with a 68 and tied for 13th in his last tournament be-fore he goes for the career Grand Slam in the PGA Championship. After the Bridgestone Invitational, add one more player — Matsuy-ama — to the list of major obstacles in his way.

CHAMPIONS TOUR

Goydos wins playoffBLAINE, MINN.

Paul Goydos birdied the fi rst playoff hole Sunday to win the 3M Championship over Gene Sauers.

It is the fi rst PGA Tour Champions win of the season for Goydos and fi fth of his career.

Both Goydos and Sauers shot 66 in regulation to get to 20-under 196 at the TPC Twin Cities.

Sauers’ second playoff shot splashed in the lake in front of the 18th green; Goydos cleared the water by less than a yard and two-putted for the win.

Kevin Sutherland shot 64 to tie for third with Steve Stricker (66) and Brandt Jobe (67), two shots back.

Scott Verplank was three back after a 66. Wes Short, Jr. shot a 10-under 62, and was among a quartet of golfers fi nishing four shots back. That group included Kenny Perry, a co-leader with Goydos and Sauers entering the day. He shot 70.

WOMEN

Kim holds on to win Ricoh British Open

ST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND I.K. Kim banished the haunt-

ing memory of missing a 14-inch putt to win a major and replaced it with the sweetest

sensation.Finally, she can call herself a

major champion.Staked to a six-shot lead

in the Women’s British Open, Kim never led anyone get closer than two shots at Kings-barns Links and sealed victory with a bold hybrid over the burn to the 17th green. She made nine pars on the back nine and closed with a 1-under 71 for a two-shot victory.

“I cannot describe my feel-ings,” Kim said. “I just tried to have some fun, but it wasn’t fun on the back nine.”

Jodi Ewart Shadoff made her work for it by charging home with a 64 to put pres-sure on the 29-year-old South Korean. Kim didn’t falter over an increasingly soggy course, however. She fi nished at 18-under 270 to capture the $487,500 prize.

Michelle Wie went out in 30 to give Kim something to think about, but the 27-year-old from Hawaii stalled and closed with a 66 to tie for third with Caroline Masson (67) and Georgia Hall (70).

Kim now has won three times, the most by anyone on the LPGA Tour this year, all in the last two months.

But this was the biggest by far.

She was no more than 14 inches away from winning the 2012 Kraft Nabisco Champi-onship for her fi rst major when she clasped her hand over her mouth in disbelief when it spun out of the hole. She lost in a playoff , and it was a tough memory to shake.

Until Sunday.Associated Press

he’s gotten the league to move the Hall of Fame game to Thursday night, thus allowing the induc-tions on Saturday to culminate the week of activities. However, the turnout for the inductions ap-peared much smaller than in re-cent years.

After a nasty pratfall last sum-mer when the game was canceled because of an unplayable turf, Baker oversaw the installation of a new turf, which includes field markings sewn into the surface, as part of the construction of the new Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium.

That stadium itself has under-gone a major transformation from, basically, an uncomfortable high school arena to what Baker be-lieves will be a destination venue seating “an intimate 23,000,” he says with a smile.

Locker rooms that some youth teams would have balked at using are gone, with upgrades “in every area of comfort” for 102 players each.

Already, the NCAA Division III football championship game is coming to Canton in 2020 and

2021, and the Black College Hall of Fame Classic will be played there. (That HOF will make its home on the site, too.)

The Ohio State high school foot-ball championships will return, leaving the Buckeyes’ Horseshoe in Columbus.

An 80,000-square-foot indoor performance center already has booked the Division III men’s vol-leyball championship in 2022. It will have a full-size football fi eld and a confi guration for basketball when it opens in 2020.

That’s where Baker hopes an NFL draft will land.

His enthusiasm — and Baker is a very enthusiastic guy — peaks when he discusses The Center of Excellence, the Player Care Center and the Hall of Fame Experience.

The center will house a coaches’ university, and officiating insti-tute, an academy of corporate ex-cellence and a center for athlete performance and safety.

The player care center will have a wide range of health services. Legends Landing will be a 143-bed independent living or assisted-living and memory care facility for retired Hall of Famers and other members of the NFL community. It also will have a 15-bed surgical

hospital and areas for behavioral science, and an addiction center.

“We have the opportunity to take care of players who are go-ing to play, do play or did play the game of football,” says Baker, whose son, Sam, played tackle for the Falcons for seven seasons, re-tiring after 2014. “We have an op-portunity to make a difference in the health of players, and not just our Gold Jackets.”

As for the Hall of Fame Experi-ence, well, that is the closest to the Disney model that the village will get: an indoor amusement park themed around football.

“Fans will be able to experience everything, from what it feels like to be suited up for a game to hav-ing their own competitions,” Bak-er explains.

Somehow, it also will have a foot-ball-themed water park inside.

By the time the Johnson Con-trols Hall of Fame Village is com-pleted with its 10 components, Baker is hopeful the centennial celebration of pro football in America on Sept. 17, 2020, also will call Canton home.

“After all,” he points out, “Can-ton is where it all started.”

LATROBE, PA.Cam Heyward vividly remem-

bers a December road game last season at Cincinnati, where the Pittsburgh Steelers were quick-ly running out of healthy bodies along the defensive line.

Hey wa rd wa s already sidelined with a torn pectoral muscle for a game the Steelers won by four points. He saw teammates along the line start to fall because of injury.

He doesn’t think the Steelers will have that problem this season.

Heyward is back and ready to an-chor a young unit that gained depth and experience in his absence.

“We can go into the game with three nose tackles or six or seven ends because guys can play mul-tiple positions,” Heyward said. “It just gives us depth and if someone gets injured, we don’t feel like we’re cramming around.

“I remember the Cincinnati game, I was talking to the outside linebackers like ‘can y’all play de-fensive end,’ but I don’t think we’ll have to deal with that this year.”

Since entering the NFL as the Steelers’ fi rst-round draft pick in 2011, Heyward played 85 consecu-tive regular-season games — third-longest active streak among NFL defensive ends at the time. But that string ended when a hamstring injury forced Heyward to miss two games. His season concluded soon after when Heyward tore a pectoral muscle against Dallas in November.

The 28-year-old Heyward, who enters his seventh season, wants to put a forgettable 2016 in the past.

“I feel like my season got cut short,” Heyward said. “I don’t re-ally count last season because I was injured too much, so I’m back to my sixth year.”

An improved Stephon Tuitt joins Heyward to give the Steelers a for-midable tandem along the defen-sive line.

Tuitt, the Steelers’ second-round pick in 2014, stepped up signifi-

cantly to lead the line in Heyward’s absence. Tuitt set the tone the week after Heyward’s season-ending in-jury when he tied a single-game career high with two sacks and was chosen AFC Defensive Player of the Week.

“When Cam Heyward went down, I really grew a lot,” Tuitt said. “You don’t ever want to be in a situation like that, but it helped me grow and I’m going to be a better veteran play-er because of that, because I have so much confi dence this year.”

The Steelers intended to give Heyward and Tuitt a much-needed breather along the D-line when they made Javon Hargrave their third-round draft pick in 2016.

The plan worked as Hargrave gained valuable experience as a rookie, playing in 15 games and making 13 starts at defensive tack-le. He also played in the Steelers’ three playoff games and got his first career postseason sack on Tom Brady in the AFC champion-ship game during a lopsided loss against New England.

The Steelers added a veteran presence in March when they gave a two-year contract to Tyson Alua-lu, a longtime defensive lineman in Jacksonville, and 2010 fi rst-round draft pick.

A pair of sixth-round picks, Dan-iel McCullers and L.T. Walton, also continue to develop. McCullers, drafted in 2014, and Walton, a 2016 pick, have appeared in 53 games, making a combined fi ve starts in three seasons.

Heyward recognizes the prog-ress made last season by his young-er teammates along the line while he was sidelined. Now, Heyward’s back in the fold, making expecta-tions greater along the line with added depth and experience.

“You see guys get a lot of reps and I thought they grew through-out the year,” Heyward said. “I just want them to take the next step this year.”

NILESHosea Nelson homered to lead the

Scrappers to Sunday’s 6-3 victory over the State College Spikes at Eastwood Field.

Scrappers starter Gregori Vasquez (3-2) pitched six scoreless innings, allowing just two hits. He struck out two Spikes and walked none.

Reliever Riley Echols allowed one run in two innings while Jonathan Teaney allowed two runs in one inning.

The Scrappers (27-18) started the scoring in the fi rst inning. After reach-ing base on a walk, Nolan Jones advanced to second on a single by Ulysses Cantu and then scored on a double by Simeon Lucas.

The Scrappers added two runs in the second and third innings and one in the eighth to secure the victory.

Jones drove in two runs while Nelson had two hits. Ernie Clement also had two hits.

Spikes starter Jonathon Mulford (2-4) went 2 2⁄3 innings, allowing fi ve runs and sev-en hits in the New York-Penn League game. He also struck out two and walked six.

Evan Mendoza homered and doubled for the Spikes. Joshua Lopez doubled and singled.

The Scrappers and Spikes will play against tonight at Eastwood Field. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m.

Almonte didn’t make any ex-cuses and accepted blame for not making the play.

“It’s a ball that should have been caught,” said Almonte, who sat at his locker and reviewed the play on a tablet with Indians bench coach Brad Mills follow-ing the game. “It was not an easy fl y ball, but it should have been caught.”

The Yankees wound up scor-ing five runs in the sixth — matching their total in the past four games — and bounced back from two sloppy losses to split the series with the defending AL champions.

Severino (9-4) gave up Michael Brantley’s homer in the fi rst and then toyed with the Indians, striking out nine and allowing just three runners to reach. He didn’t give up his second hit until there were two outs in the seventh and was pulled by man-ager Joe Girardi before getting a roaring ovation from several thousand New York fans.

The All-Star right-hander is 4-0 with a 0.71 ERA in his last four starts.

“He has continued to improve all year long,” Yankees manag-er Joe Girardi. “I’m seeing him do things now that he didn’t do early on.”

Other than allowing Brantley’s homer, Severino was rarely in any trouble. He put himself in a bind in the fourth with a leadoff walk and wild pitch, but locked down and retired Cleveland’s 3-4-5 hit-ters to keep it 1-0.

Brantley touched Severino for a homer in the fi rst, but the In-

dians didn’t make much hard contact off the 23-year-old.

“That’s as impressive of stuff as you’re going to see,” Indians manager Terry Francona said. “The fastball, everybody sees that, but he’s gaining confi dence in an off-speed. That’s a tough guy to face.”

JUDGE NOTJudge connected in the sev-

enth for his 35th homer — only No. 5 since the All-Star break

— to give New York an 8-1 lead. Judge’s screaming liner to center had an exit velocity of 113 mph, and the Yankees can only hope it hurries him out of an extended slump.

Judge struck out in his fi rst two at-bats and was walked in the sixth before hitting his league-leading homer.

“I swung at some pitches out of the zone before that,” he said. “In that at-bat, I was able to stick to my approach and drive it to

right-center. The past couple of weeks I’ve been getting off my approach. When you get out of your approach in the ma-jor leagues, people will expose you.”

Judge is hitting .182 (14 for 77) with 35 strikeouts since July 14.

KIPNIS BACKIndians second baseman went

0 for 4 and struck out three times in his fi rst game since July 8. He was activated from the disabled list Sunday after being sidelined with a strained right hamstring.

CATCHING UPYankees catcher Gary San-

chez, who has had major defen-sive issues this season, sat for the second straight game.

Sanchez leads the majors with 12 passed balls and Girardi has stressed to the 24-year-old that he has to get better at blocking pitches or his playing time will be affected.

“The message came from us verbally,” said Girardi, who caught for 15 seasons in the ma-jors. “’Your defense needs to im-prove. You need to get better at it. You need to work at it.’ He’s worked at it, but we’ve expressed how important it is.”

Sanchez was surprised to not be in the lineup again, but un-derstands why.

“I’m not perfect,” he said. “The bottom line is I have to im-prove.”

UP NEXT Cleveland gets a break before

opening a two-game interleague series against Colorado on Tues-day with ace Corey Kluber on the mound. Kluber upstaged Gray’s New York debut and three-hit the Yankees on Thursday.

PITTSBURGHSean Rodriguez’s improb-

able weekend had a Holly-wood ending.

Rodriquez homered in the 12th inning to give the Pittsburgh Pirates a 5-4 win over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. One day earlier, Pittsburgh acquired Ro-driguez from the Atlanta Braves.

R o d r i g u e z l i f t e d a 1-1 pitch off Padres reliever Buddy Baumann (0-1) over the left-fi eld wall.

“[The reception from the crowd] was pretty cool,” said Rodriguez, who spent the previous two seasons with the Pirates before signing with the Braves in November. “The fans showing me that much love, I defi nitely felt it. Deep down, I never felt like I stopped being a Pirate.”

A Jan. 28 car crash tore Rodriguez’s left rotator cuff, damaged his labrum and dislocated his biceps tendon. After undergoing surgery in February, he didn’t make his Braves debut until July 17.

Rodriguez hit .162 with two home runs and three RBIs in 15 games with At-lanta. He was 1 for 2 with the walk-off home run Sunday.

“We were looking for an op-portunity to present itself to get him in and play,” Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. “You heard the ovation. He got a lot of love when he came in the clubhouse. You can write those things up. That’s what’s so great about sports.”

Rookie reliever Dovydas

Neverauskas (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings to get his fi rst career win.

The Pirates took two of three from the Padres after losing their past four series. Entering this series, Pitts-burgh had lost eight of 11 since a six-game winning streak from July 16-21.

Pirates closer Felipe Riv-ero gave up two walks and a single to load the bases with two outs in the ninth inning before Manuel Margot’s two-run single tied the score 4-4.

Rivero has allowed four runs in his past three appear-ances after going 12 straight without allowing a run.

“[Rivero has] been the absolute best closer in the game all year,” Padres man-ager Andy Green said. “He hadn’t run into any trouble, but I think we had multiple at-bats in a row that he had to work for, that had a cumu-lative effect. Everybody’s hu-man at some point in time.”

Pirates starter Jameson Taillon rebounded from allowing a combined 18 runs in his past two starts. He surrendered two runs, each coming in the fi rst in-ning, and fi ve hits with eight strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings.

Unlike Taillon, Padres left-hander Clayton Richard started strong before allow-ing four unearned runs in the third. He gave up five hits in six innings, but sent the Pirates down in order in the first inning and struck out the side in the second.

With the Pirates trailing 2-0 in the third, Andrew Mc-Cutchen cut the defi cit in half with a single to left before a pitch hit David Freese to load

the bases. Jose Osuna sent a double down the right field line, clearing the bases and giving Pittsburgh a 4-2 lead.

“I felt good throughout, re-ally,” Richard said. “There were only a couple of pitches that got away from me and they were in that inning. I made a good pitch to Osuna. He did a good job putting the ball in play down the right fi eld line.

“Pulled one to McCutchen that he did a good job hit-ting. You make a mistake to a guy like that and he’s going to take advantage. All in all, I felt good throughout.”

COSTLY MISTAKESpangenberg inadvertent-

ly jump-started the Pirates’ four-run third inning, which began with his error allow-ing Chris Stewart to reach first base safely. Stewart sharply hit a ground ball to-ward Spangenberg, who lift-ed his glove slightly too early and allowed the grounder to slip into the outfi eld.

ROSTER MOVEPirates: INF Max Moroff

was optioned to Triple-A In-dianapolis to make room for Rodriguez on the 25-man roster. Rodriguez entered the game as part of a double-switch with two out in the eighth inning.

UP NEXTPirates: RHP Trevor Wil-

liams (4-4, 4.47) will look to string together a third con-secutive strong start when he faces Detroit tonight. Wil-liams has been handed a no decision in his past two ap-pearances, but has allowed a combined three runs.

AROUND THE HORN | Sunday’s other MLB games

as the white f l a g w a s about to fl y. De spite a bobble and locking the br a ke s a s K e n s e t h challenged on the last lap, Truex won for the fourth time this sea-son.

“He was so fast, I still couldn’t get to him,” said Kenseth, who maintained his slim points lead over Clint Bowyer for the final slot in the playoffs with four races to go before the cut-off. “I was racing as hard as I could, trying to make as many passes as I could.”

Daniel Suarez was third, the best fi nish of his rookie season, followed by Denny Hamlin and Bowyer. Pole-sitter Kyle Busch was sev-enth.

Truex boosted his playoff points total to a whopping 34, nearly double that of second-place Jimmie John-son (18) as his best season shows no signs of tailing off.

“I feel like with the way we run, coupled with the bonus points, we should be a lock for [the season fi nale at] Homestead,” Truex said. “But at the same time, this is racing and anything can happen.”

B u s c h , who domi-nated quali-fying earlier in the day, w a s t h e class of the f ield early and gained a big lead after the green fl ag dropped and led all 20 laps of the fi rst stage. By the eighth time around the 2.45-mile circuit, Busch held a 3.4-second lead over Truex, while Keselowski in sixth was 10 seconds behind. It was Busch’s ninth stage win of the season.

Busch, who overcame a pit road penalty early in Saturday’s Xfinity race at The Glen and rallied to win, had to return to the pits af-ter his fi rst stop to check for a loose wheel and restarted 34th. By the end of the sec-ond stage, he had worked his way back through the field and was ninth at the end, in contention again.

Busch encountered more

trouble just past the half-way point of the 90-lap race. His No. 18 Toyota suffered damage after a restart when he made contact with Ke-selowski in the Inner Loop while racing for seventh. Keselowski bounced into Busch and both slid off course.

An irate Busch pitted and Keselowski stayed out.

THE GLENContinued from B1

Associated Press

LONDONWith Usain Bolt and

Elaine Thompson in the 100 meters, it was supposed to be double sprint gold for Jamaica by now. Instead, it’s the United States that leads 2-0 at the world champion-ships.

With a desperate final lunge Sunday, Tori Bowie dipped at the line to edge Marie-Josee Ta Lou by .01 seconds and win in 10.85.

Once across and off bal-ance, the American sprinter fell onto the track and didn’t have a clue who had won.

“The dive doesn’t feel too good now,” said Bowie, who added gold to her Olympic silver from last year. “I nev-er give up until I am over the line.”

Dafne Schippers, the 2015 world champion in the 200, took bronze in 10.96.

Thompson, the Olympic champion from last year, came into the race as a big favorite. Sporting a flower bow in her headband and purple lipstick to stand out, she was never a factor and fi nished fi fth in 10.98.

“I didn’t execute my race, which is a shame, but I’m healthy,” Thompson said. “I don’t know what went wrong.”

On Saturday, Justin Gat-lin won the men’s 100, beat-ing Bolt.

The stunning reversal of Jamaica’s sprint fortunes was highlighted by the fact that it didn’t have a medal-ist in the women’s 100 for the fi rst time in 14 years.

In an event almost as close as the 100 fi nal, Eka-terini Stefanidi again held off Sandi Morris to win gold in the pole vault.

Morris and Stefanidi were involved in an epic battle

when the Greek won on a countback at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. It was al-most as good at the world championships.

This time, neither had a failure through 4.75 meters — they were tied at the top with all opposition already out. Then, Stefanidi scaled 4.82 while Morris failed.

When gold was already assured, Stefanidi cleared 4.91 for a Greek record.

There was nothing close about t he heptat h lon, though, as Nafi Thiam add-ed a world championship gold medal to her Olympic title.

The 22-year-old Belgian already had a huge lead coming into the conclud-ing 800-meter race in the two-day competition. Thi-am fi nished last in the fi nal heat but still had more than enough points to win.

Thiam fi nished with 6,784 points, 88 more than silver medalist Carolin Schaefer of Germany. Anouk Vet-ter of the Netherlands took bronze with 6,636 points.

Thiam won three of the seven events — the high jump, shot put and long jump.

In the men’s shot put, Tomas Walsh of New Zea-land already had won gold when he threw 22.03 meters on his last attempt, 37 cen-timeters more than defend-ing champion Joe Kovacs.

The American also had a huge throw on his last at-tempt but was given a red fl ag for a foot fault. Stipe Zu-nic of Croatia took bronze with a toss of 21.46.

Ryan Crouser of t he United States, the Olympic champion and the season’s top performer, never got it going and finished sixth with a throw of 21.14.

During a sunny but cool day, and with some iconic London landmarks serving as a backdrop, the world championships produced a pair of stirring marathon races.

Both Geoffrey Kirui of Kenya and Rose Chelimo of Bahrain came from be-hind to win gold medals on Tower Bridge.

Kirui earned Kenya a re-cord fi fth men’s marathon title in the morning by beat-ing Tamirat Tola of Ethiopia in a seesaw race. Then, the Kenyan-born Chelimo and Edna Kiplagat produced a similar back-and-forth contest in the afternoon to give the diminutive runner her fi rst major international title.

In the Olympic Stadium, Bolt got the early cheers in the evening session. Gatlin got the boos — again.

At the medal ceremony for Saturday’s 100 meters, Bolt received massive ap-plause for his bronze medal and American silver medal-ist Christian Coleman was also warmly greeted by the crowd of about 60,000 spec-tators.

However, when Gatlin came up to receive his gold medal from IAAF President Sebastian Coe, the derisive booing returned but there was also a smattering of ap-plause — some of it from Bolt. The negative intensity didn’t quite reach the peaks of the previous days when Gatlin ran.

With his doping past — his suspension ended in 2010 — the American has long been portrayed as the bad guy set against Bolt’s charismatic, fun-loving personality.

ST. PAUL, MINN.Garrison Keillor is not

spending his time in retire-ment baking Powdermilk Biscuits or drinking cof-fee down at the Chatterbox Cafe now that he’s hung up his microphone as host of his popular public radio show, “A Prair ie Home Companion.”

He turns 75 today and will board a bus Tuesday for a 28-city “Prairie Home Love & Comedy Tour — 2017,” which he vows will be his last.

“I don’t think you should go out onstage after the age of 76,” Keillor told The Asso-ciated Press during a recent

interview at his St. Paul office. “You don’t want to fall down o u t t h e r e a n d t h e n all of these people, you

know, there’s a sudden in-take of breath. And men in white jackets come in from the wings and put an oxy-gen mask on you.”

“You don’t want that to happen. It’s too much enter-tainment for the dollar,” he adds. “An entertainer is sup-posed to go away and have a quiet dotage, and you know, lose your marbles in private and not do this out where people can see you.”

Keillor started his Sat-urday-evening radio vari-ety show featuring tales of his fictional Minnesota hometown of Lake Wobe-gon – “where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average” – in 1974. He went out with a fi nal show at the Hollywood Bowl in July 2016 and turned the show over to mando-linist extraordinaire Chris Thile, who starts his second season as “Prairie Home” host on Oct. 7.

Keillor admits he misses being on the air and says he hasn’t listened to “Prai-rie Home” since Thile took over.

“I keep my distance be-

cause I was given tremen-dous freedom when I did the show and it took a while for me to even get a grasp of what was involved. Made a lot of mistakes in the course of all those years. So the new people really should be given the same freedom and allowed to make their own mistakes,” he said.

“I would miss it too much, I think. I really would feel a big loss, I think, if I listened to it,” he said. “I really have to turn my back. When the bishop steps down, the bishop is supposed to leave town. You’re not supposed to, you know, keep going back to the church.”

Wearing his signature red tennis shoes without socks

and his gray hair freshly cut as he prepares to hit the road, Keillor talks about his projects, which include fi n-ishing a screenplay about Lake Wobegon. The plot in-volves a New York weather-man coming back to town for his father’s funeral. It’s based on a character from Keillor’s 1997 novel, “Wobe-gon Boy.”

Keillor hopes the movie will be filmed in Minne-sota. Keillor’s radio show characters were the basis of director Robert Altman’s last movie, “A Prairie Home Companion.”

Keillor said he’s about 100,000 words into a mem-oir. He’s also started a syn-dicated newspaper column.

NEW YORK Andrew Zimmern, host

of Travel Channel’s “Bi-zarre Foods,” thinks he’s misunderstood.

He says he’s know n as “fat guy runs around world, eats bugs,” but adds, “I don’t think I’ve eaten a bug or an organ in ‘Bizarre Foods’ in years.”

“I purposely set out to make a show that’s enter-taining,” he said. “At the same time I try to be very thoughtful and thought-provoking and I try to edu-cate and I take the cultural lessons of the show very, very, very seriously.”

The show’s current sea-son focuses on American destinations, along with their history and social context. And a new show, “The Zimmern List,” de-buts early 2018 showcasing his favorite places, “where I actually go when the cameras aren’t rolling.”

Zimmern – a chef who’s won four James Beard awards – invited The Asso-ciated Press to follow him in Queens, New York, for a glimpse of what “The Zim-mern List” will be like. In the Astoria neighborhood, he sampled cured meats and pastries at Muncan Food Corp., founded by an immigrant from the for-mer Yugoslavia; then had a goat dish called katakat at Kababish, which serves Pakistani, Indian and Bangladeshi food in Jack-son Heights; and fi nished with Taiwanese noodle soup, pork roll and minced vegetables at Happy Stony Noodle in Elmhurst.

Faisel and Hera Shaikh, from Ashburn, Virginia, were picking up food from Kababish when Zimmern appeared. After taking a few selfi es with him, Fai-sel Shaikh said he’s dined at places recommended by Zimmern around the

world, from Dubai to Aus-tralia.

“I see his show and I write it down,” Shaikh said. “Wherever he goes, I go.” Shaikh says he likes the show because Zimmern tells “the whole story ... the culture, the society, the background, about where the food comes from.”

Here are some excerpts from AP’s wide-ranging chat with Zimmern, in-cluding advice on using social media to fi nd good food when you travel, and a message of hope for fam-ilies struggling with addic-tion.

FINDING GOOD FOODWHEN YOU TRAVEL

“I google local food writ-ers. ... I look up who are the most famous chefs on the Eater Heatmap but I also look on the Michelin guide and see who are the three-star Michelin chefs.”

“People forget that if you go onto Instagram or Twitter, you can actually click on someone’s feed and look at their timeline and you can fl ip back and back and back. So if I want to know where’s great to eat in Italy, I’ll look and see where Michael White and Mario Batali and all these other chefs have eaten when they’ve been in Italy last year. When I want to look up where’s fun to eat in Paris, I’ll look and see where Daniel Boulud went and ate last year when he was in Paris.”

RELATIONSHIP WITH ANTHONY BOURDAIN

“We’re friends, we do hang out. I did his stage show with him when he came to Minneapolis. ... We were both part of the Jose Andres tribute dinner last February, that was the last time we saw each oth-er. We went outside on the deck and locked the door behind us, so we could just be alone, and spend a half-hour catching up. I don’t

think we’re competition at all actually. I think Tony would probably say the same thing.”

“I absolutely adore what Tony does because of his storytelling ability. And it’s shot beautifully.”

ON ADDICTION: NOBODY IS HOPELESS

“I’ve been sober for 25 1/2 years. I was a heroin addict. An alcoholic, I was a criminal. I was home-less. So I have a very, very low bottom story. Tried to kill myself by drinking myself to death, didn’t work, living in an aban-doned building, stealing purses (left) on chairs to live. So I’ve come a pretty long way.”

“I hope family members or loved ones who have someone (struggling with addiction) hear it loud and clear. Don’t listen to the statistics. There is recov-ery available for everyone. There is no one so hope-less as to actually be hope-less. It just does not exist. Sometimes intervention is necessary. Actually sepa-ration from substances. And a lot of families don’t go down the intervention route fast enough. ... There are tons of great places out there.”

MOST BIZARRE FOODEVER EATEN

“In Samoa, we had a coral worm that swims up from the bottom of the ocean, thousands of feet, and dies in the sun and then falls back down and fertilizes the coral. ... To eat that worm when it fl oats to the surface with the natives, I can’t think of something stranger. En-set, which is a bread, made from pounded palm roots that’s buried in the ground for months and fermented before it’s baked, that some of the tribal Ethiopians still make in that country ... that’s certainly strange. Everybody wants me to call out some horribly fermented, heinous – like casu marzu, the maggot-infested cheese of Sardin-ia, but the term bizarre in Webster’s means unique and interesting. People al-ways ask me, ‘What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever eaten?’ and I’m just like, ‘None of it is strange to the people who are eating it there.’ I’ve not eaten any of those foods, enset, or sea worm or the casa marzu, in America. I get up in the morning, I make eggs and have cereal with my kid, roast a chicken for din-ner.”

‘Bizarre Foods’ host on new show, travel tips, addiction hope

A lot on Zimmern’s plate

“Bizarre Foods” host Andrew Zimmern holds a piece of bacon after savoring it at Muncan Meats in Astoria, Queens, New York. A new show in early 2018, “The Zimmern List” will showcase his personal favorites, the eateries where he goes when cameras aren’t rolling. Zimmern, a four-time James Beard-award winning chef, also off ers hope for families struggling with addiction. A former addict himself, he’s been sober for 25 years.

Retirement hasn’t slowed Garrison Keillor

By JOSEPH LONGOAssociated Press

LOS ANGELESDamian Marley shot the

music video for his new song “Medication” in a medical marijuana farm.

The reggae singer, who is part owner of a medical marijuana company, exalts the drug’s benefi ts in “Medi-cation,” which appears on his newly released album “Stony Hill.” It’s his fi rst solo record in 12 years.

In an interview with the Associated Press, Marley

talks about m a n a g i n g his burgeon-ing cannabis career, work-ing with Jay-Z for the fi rst t i m e a n d growing up in privileged Jamaica.

Q. You’re featured on Jay-Z’s new album in the

song “Bam.” You shot some of the video in Jamaica. What was the experience like?

A. I’m a fan of his music, so I was honored to be

invited to be a part of the album. We actually did a recording in Los Angeles. He invited me to come by the studio for a few hours, and he kind of already had an idea of what he wanted for the hook. He said, “Go ahead, freestyle and have fun on the track.” ...They kind of constructed my verse using lines from my freestyle. We spent two days in Jamaica showing him around, catching visuals for the project.

Q. It’s been 12 years since you released a solo

album.

A. W hat’s rea l ly been happening is that I’ve

been in the studio working on other projects. I did an album with Nas called “Dis-tant Relatives.” I was part of another project called Su-perHeavy, which was also featuring Mick Jagger, Dave Stewart, Joss Stone and A.R. Rahman.

Q. Why name the album “Stony Hill”?

A. I choose “Stony Hill” as the name of the album

to ref lect my upbringing. The neighborhood I grew up in from when I was around 5-years-old to when I was around 15 or 16. It’s the more privileged part of Jamaica. In the album, we’re trying to speak about that journey ... my father came from the ghetto and was able to have a child like myself who was born and raised in an up-town, privileged area.

Q. You have your medi-cal marijuana compa-

ny, Stony Hill Corp. How did that come about?

A. Marijuana has been such a big part of our

lives even way before it was made legal in certain plac-es. I think it’s only right that we partake in the business now.

MONDAYAUGUST 7, 2017 THE VINDICATOR | C2 SOCIETY NEWSDear

Annie

This isa chanceto repay

MomDear Annie: When my

mom’s husband died, we moved her from another state to an assisted-living facility a few miles from our house.

We run errands for her, handle her bills and oc-casionally take her out for a meal, and we have her over one day every week for a home-cooked meal. After several years, she has never offered to buy us a meal, not even for a special occasion, such as a birthday or anniver-sary. There has been no acknowledgment of our new normal. She does say “thank you” for each task.

My mom’s daughter, a half sibling of mine, lives in another state. She has never sent us a gift card for our efforts. Money is not a barrier for either of them; they are well-off. We feel that we would never treat a family care-giver this way.

Underappreciated

Dear Underappreciat-ed: I’m sure Mom treated you to many meals the first 18 years of your life. Think of this role reversal as a chance to repay her. Perhaps she’s not offered to chip in for any meals be-cause she’s on a limited in-come or living off savings.

Your half sister, though, really ought to step up more. Perhaps you could talk to her and express how much you would appreci-ate her help in caring for Mom. You shouldn’t feel guilty for asking this. She’s her mom, too, and she should want to help her.

Lastly, if you’re simply seeking some acknowl-edgment that what you are doing is good and kind, let me say: It is. And deep down, your mom probably appreciates it more than words can say.

Dear A nnie : Tha nk you for encouraging the young woman who wrote about living with her al-coholic father to connect with Alateen. It’s a pow-erful program – one that has helped many young people and their families.

Seeing as the young woman also said she is connected to her church, I’d encourage her to talk with her pastor, her youth leader or some other re-sponsible and caring adult in the congregation.

A responsible faith lead-er – who can keep confi-dences – can be a good ally, both as a listening ear and as a resource person if the situation with her fa-ther escalates.

In addition, knowing what’s going on in a fam-ily can help the pastor, youth leader or other re-sponsible adult pay better attention, even without taking any kind of direct action. Finally, it can re-mind the faith leader to lift up in prayer, without naming specifi c individu-als or families, everyone whose life is touched by addiction or mental ill-ness. Just as we pray for those dealing with physi-cal illnesses, we need to pray for those living with mental-health or addic-tion issues and those who love and care for them.

Again, thank you for your care for all who write to you – and especially for the good advice you offer.

Rev. Talitha Arnold

Dear Rev. Arnold: Thank you for your thoughtful let-ter. Because she mentioned her involvement with her church, I should have thought to recommend her faith leaders as an addi-tional resource. That was a missed opportunity. I’ve passed your message along to “Sick and Afraid,” and I’m printing it here for any young person in a similar situation.

Sales staff

tends to ignore

shoppersDear Readers: Today’s

Sound Off is about de-partment staff who ignore the customer:

“Dear Heloise: I recent-ly went shopping at a ma-jor department store, and I asked one of the sales staff if she could assist me, and she said, “No,” she was busy, and just walked off. I saw a group of three giggling salespeople and asked if they could help me, and one young wom-an said, “In a minute,” turned her back and con-tinued her conversation. I left the store without spending a dime.

“This isn’t the fi rst time I’ve seen salespeople ig-nore a customer. The ma-jority of salespeople usu-ally are helpful and pro-fessional, but it only takes a few bad apples to ruin the reputation of a store. Is it a lack of proper train-ing?”

Emma Y., Scranton, Pa.

Emma, sorry to hear about this unfortunate incident, but you do have options. You can call the store manager to let him or her know of your experi-ence, or write a letter to the corporate CEO. Training might be the issue, but you always can recommend better training in a phone call or letter.

Heloise

Dear Readers: If you lose your wallet:

Call the police and re- �

port that it’s lost or stolen – do this immediately!Get a new driver’s li- �

cense – this is your most commonly used form of ID.Cancel all credit cards �

and, if necessary, notify your bank.Notify utilities in case �

key in your wallet, have the locks changed.

Heloise

Dear Heloise: I’m hav-ing problems with gnats in my kitchen and bath-rooms. I have the house sprayed for bugs, but I still have gnats. Do you have a solution to this problem?

Bugs in Kitchen, via email

First make certain all in-door plants are not watered for a couple of days; gnats lay their eggs in damp soil. Remove all food or fruit bowls from the counter. Clean all surfaces with an all-purpose cleaner, includ-ing the floors and trash baskets. Cover drains with plastic and tape it down. Leave this in place over-night.

Then make a gnat trap:Pour about � 1⁄4 cup of ap-ple-cider vinegar into a jar or plastic container.Take a coffee fi lter and �

place over the opening of the apple-cider con-tainer. You can use a rubber band to ensure that the coffee filter is held in place and there is a tight seal.Poke three holes in the �

coffee filter, no bigger than 1⁄4 inch to 1⁄3 inch wide.Place in an area where �

the gnats are, and leave it there for a day or two.

YESTERDAY’S ANSWER

Happy Birthday! In The Next Year: This solar return features a different way of using and ap-preciating money. The new ease in this area of life will help you get a creative endeavor off the ground. Clean, clear space, and make way for excitement in Oc-tober. Spiritual perception will be heightened in 2018. Karmic gifts center around felicitous relation-ships. Pisces and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 50, 1, 28 and 42.CELEBRITY PROFILES: Note the flowing mane of ‘’Atomic Blonde’’ star Charlize Theron, who was born when the sun, moon and Mercury were in the sign of the lion. This much Leo energy lends an instinct for entertainment and a natural advantage in the jungle of show business. Venus in Virgo can’t help but go for perfection in all endeavors and has extremely high standards in matters of love.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In juggling and in life, the key to keeping all the balls in the air is freeing your hands up as soon as possible. ‘’The world is won by those who let it go.’’ -- Lao Tzu

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There are levels to honesty. Get-ting to the deeper levels will have nothing to do with morality, good-ness or faithfulness. The deeper levels of honesty are about know-ing yourself and being willing to look at your needs and motives.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). For-giveness doesn’t change what happened, but it might change how you feel about what hap-pened, thus altering the energet-ic imprint of the situation. Lighter living means carrying less of the past along with you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Sometimes stealing a kiss makes it more exciting to have it. But if you always have to steal your kisses, the relationship is casting you in the energetically demand-ing role of ‘’sneaky thief.’’ Is it re-ally worth the effort?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Maybe you’re afraid to get rid of some-thing because you fear you’ll need it in the future. Have a little more faith in your own resourcefulness and your place in the universal order. That is to say: You are pre-cious and will be cared for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It won’t be easy to find what sparks your joy, but you’ll get closer by noticing what doesn’t. You’ll do this without judgment or snob-bery. When you declare some-thing to be a better fit for you, you’re not saying it’s better in general.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some think there’s beauty in chaos. Others find sadness and anxiety there. Some chaos will be unavoidable today. What you do with it will fall somewhere be-tween grace and art.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a thought you’d like to ex-tract from your mind for fear that it will influence how you behave -- maybe even who you become. This one needs to be examined and broken down before you can build it back up.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The competition among your family members will be particu-larly palpable, complex and un-necessary today. This is ancient business playing out in new ways.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Sometimes it feels like the same things are being offered over and over, year to year, town to town, person to person. This weary worldview is an indicator of soul-level exhaustion. Take a nice long break.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When you feel like putting the brakes on an endeavor, first put an investigation on it. What was the purpose? Is that purpose still worth fulfilling? Don’t quit before you examine why you started.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t have to be radically truthful with everyone, as that could (pointlessly) open a bag of worms. However, it might help to get a little more radically truth-ful with yourself. What is it you want and need that you’re not getting?ASTROLOGICAL QUESTION: ‘’Admittedly, most of my ex-boy-friends have been dishonest men, have used me and cheated on me and have had very little to offer with the exception of being ex-tremely attractive. I’ve had a few nice boyfriends and I always seem to get bored of them. My friends call me ‘drama mama.’ I’m not a mother, by the way. When will I settle into a relationship that’s healthy? I’m a Scorpio.’’ The short answer is: when you have some-thing better to do. Experiencing roller coaster passion is an excit-ing way to spend your time. You learn something about yourself in the process: what makes you weak in the knees or super-an-gry; what quickens your heart-beat; how to communicate and miscommunicate. Scorpios are gifted with the remarkable abil-ity to transform suddenly and completely. When there is some-thing you want more than the bittersweet romantic thrills -- say, a fulfilling career, to make an impact in the world by help-ing others or to raise a family in a healthy way -- you will simply cease to be attracted to the same kind of men.

Man accused of owing nearly $88K in tolls, fees

FORT LEE, N.J. Police have arrested a New Jersey

man who is accused of evading nearly $88,000 in tolls and fees.

A Port Authority of New Jersey and New York offi cer pulled over 60-year-old Anthony Cotugno of Newark after they say he drove through an E-ZPass lane on the George Wash-ington Bridge without paying a toll July 26.

Cotugno is charged with theft of service, toll evasion and a traffi c viola-tion. No telephone number was avail-able to seek comment.

Dull, Boring and Bland communities forge international bond

LONDON Dull, Scotland, and Boring, Ore.,

two small communities united by unexciting names, have joined forces with a third: Bland Shire, Australia.

Dull and Boring became sister communities in 2012, after a Scottish woman passed through the U.S. town on a cycling holiday. Offi cials say the relationship has boosted the profi le of both places.

Dull offi cials July 28 hosted the mayor of the region of Bland Shire, New South Wales, at a reception to celebrate the third member of a club dubbed the League of Extraordinary Communities.

Bland Shire and Boring are both named after early residents, William Bland and William Boring, while Dull’s name may come from a Gaelic word for meadow.

Authorities capture alligator roaming around NY town

WHITNEY POINT, N.Y. Authorities in upstate New York

have captured an alligator that got loose.

According to Animal Adventure Park, New York state Department of Environmental Conservation crews captured the renegade reptile July 29 behind the fairgrounds in rural Whit-ney Point. Sightings of the alligator were fi rst reported July 22.

Offi cials say the alligator is 3 feet, 3 inches long. They believe it’s some-one’s pet.

The alligator will be quarantined and then permanently placed in an exhibit at Animal Adventure Park in Harpursville. The privately owned zoo, just east of Binghamton, is home to April the giraff e, whose pregnancy and birthing of a male calf was an in-ternet sensation this year.
