Advocates to attend Dallas conference By Lindsay Kriz lkriz@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — Beginning this Sunday, two of Meigs County’s own Meigs County Victim Assistance employees, Theda Petrasko and Shelley Kemper, will be attending the National Organization of Victim Assistance Conference in Dallas. The conference ends Aug. 19. Meigs County Victims Assistance is one of 35 organizations in Ohio that was awarded a grant to attend the conference. The grant was awarded by Ohio’s Attorney General Mike DeWine. NOVA is one of the longest-standing annual training conferences for victim advocates, officials said. Petrasko said the conference trains MCVA employees to help during crises situations for a week. There will be more than 100 workshops for advanced and intermediate advocates during the conference. Some educational topics will include restorative justice, homicide issues, program management, counseling and advocacy, sexual assault, domestic violence, special concerns for victims with disabilities, children and the elderly, collaboration and public policy. This training can also provide a full year of what is known as “continuing education units” for advocates so that they can keep their registered advocacy certification. This certification requires 20 hours a year of continuing education.

Taxpayers should never provide personal information, financial or otherwise, to suspicious websites or strangers calling out of the blue. Below are five things scammers often do that the real IRS would never do: The IRS will never: · Angrily demand immediate payment over the phone, nor will the agency call about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill. · Threaten to bring in local police or other lawenforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying. · Demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe. · Require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card. · Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone. Here’s what you should do if you think you’re the target of an IRS impersonation scam: · If you actually do owe taxes, call the IRS at 1-800829-1040. IRS workers can help you with a payment issue. · If you know you don’t owe taxes or do not immediately believe that you do, you can report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) at 1-800-3664484. · If you’ve been targeted by any scam, be sure to con- tact the Federal Trade Commission and use their FTC Compliant Assistant at FTC. gov.

These laws also prevent some white men and women from voting, but they have a sharply disproportionate impact on African-Americans, especially black men. One out of 13 African-Americans can’t vote because of felony disfranchisement — a rate four times greater than non-African-Americans… To protect the legacy of the Voting Rights Act, Congress and state legislatures should strike down these restrictions. At the very least, all men and women who have served their time in prison or jail should have earned the right to become whole citizens again by participating in a fundamental exercise of democracy… To their credit, Ohio and Michigan restore offenders’ right to vote after they serve their sentences and leave prison, but most states impose some restrictions, including lifetime bans on voting… Commemorating the anniversary of the Voting Rights Act should become a call to action, not a nostalgic look backward. It’s time to remove lingering and increasingly burdensome restrictions on voting rights for those with felony convictions. The (Youngstown) Vindicator, Aug. 9 The state Board of Education is made up of 19 members, 11 who are elected and eight who are appointed by the governor… So when just seven of the board members seek an investigation of some of the practices of the Ohio Department of Education, we must ask: What about the 11 other voting members?… The absence of a consensus is disturbing to those of us who firmly believe that on at least one issue, an independent investigation is justified. However, the issue has nothing to do with the Youngstown Plan, which is detailed in legislation passed by the Republican-controlled General Assembly and signed into law by Republican Gov. John Kasich. We are unwavering in support of the plan, which aims to re-engineer the academically imploding Youngstown City School District… We were uncompromising in our demand for an independent investigation into David Hansen’s behavior. To us, having the state auditor, Dave Yost, a Republican, review the case does not pass the smell test… In light of the fact that 11 of the 19 members are elected and the remaining eight are appointed by the governor, the political underpinnings of the board cannot be ignored. Thus, we urge the seven who sent the letter to Ross demanding an investigation to bring more of their colleagues on board… The Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW This time was supposed to be different bills themselves were largely The most important political statements that had function Congress serves is no chance of being enacted, to debate and pass the fedas they contained provisions eral budget.

But that’s where No member defends this way of the good news ended. For the budgeting, but they end up doing it year after year anyway, as if held hostage by their own worst inclinations. There are no serious negotiations at this point. Which is a problem. Because to prepare a budget thoughtfully — especially when it requires negotiation with the other party — demands working through literally thousands of details. Yet we’re approaching adjournment with no serious talks to make mutually acceptable headway on the budget — though somehow Congress has found the time to take a recess, shutting down for the remainder of the summer. So with Congress having left Washington and roughly a dozen working days once it returns to put a budget together, the delay we’re seeing means that Congress won’t actually be able to resolve the issues it faces. Congressional leaders seem fine with this. They rejected early negotiations, preferring a last-minute confrontation, which will lead to another fiscal impasse. In other words, they’re punting. I can’t predict how long they’ll make their continuing resolution last, but with presidential elections looming, it may be longer rather than shorter. Instead of turning over a new leaf, as Congress promised it would do just seven months ago, it’s once again consigning us to fiscal chaos. You should be angry. It’s a lousy way to do business.

The site, which is compatible with all browsers and mobile devices, offers an enhanced user experience and is part of Marshall’s ongoing efforts to improve the information available to its current and prospective students. Ginny Painter, senior vice president for communications and marketing, said the university’s main goal was to design a user-friendly site with streamlined navigation and increased functionality, with a special focus on serving students and making information about attending Marshall easy to find. “We are so pleased to have this fresh, new design for the website,” she said. “It is targeted to students and prospective students, and has an increased emphasis on mobile applica- tions and a clean look that we think people will find attractive and easy to use.” Some key features of the new website include: š�?cfhel[Z�dWl_]Wj_ed�WdZ� structure; š�CeZ[hd"�[o[#fb[Wi_d]�Yebors and larger photographs; š�>_]^b_]^j[Z�Z[]h[[�WdZ� locations sections; š�IjkZ[dj�WdZ�\WYkbjo�ifejlights; and š�IeY_Wb�c[Z_W�_dj[]hWj_ed� with direct connections to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube, as well as Marshall’s Storify site. Painter said the redesign was done in-house, with communications and marketing, recruitment and IT staff members working together for several months to get the new look online. “We really stepped back and thought carefully about what students are looking for when they come to our site. We designed the site from their perspective, which is one of our favorite things about the new look,” she said. She added that the changes launched last week include the homepage and most of the toplevel pages and that many of the department-level pages will be transitioned to match the new look over the coming weeks. Visitors are encouraged to explore the new website at www.marshall.edu. The US should consider embedding troops By Lolita C. Baldor Associated Press WASHINGTON — If Iraqi forces aren’t making good progress against Islamic State militants in the next several months, the U.S. should consider embedding American troops with the Iraqis, the Army’s retiring top general said Wednesday. Gen. Raymond Odierno, who retires as Army chief of staff on Friday, said the U.S. forces would not be directly involved in the fight. “I believe that if we find in the next several months that we’re not making the progress that we have, we should probably absolutely consider embedding some soldiers with them, and see if that would make a difference,” Odierno told reporters. “I think that’s an option we should present to the president.” Speaking during his final Pentagon press conference, Odierno hit a broad range of topics, and spoke at length about Iraq and his frustrations as a commander who spent three long tours there only to see the country plunge again into chaos. He discounted suggestions — including by Republican presidential contender Donald Trump — that the U.S. should take more aggressive military action in Iraq, saying the solution lies with political and economic reforms. He said the U.S. could probably go into Iraq with enough force to defeat the Islamic State, but the success would not last. “We’d probably be right back where we are today six months later,” Odierno said. “I absolutely believe that the region has to solve this problem. The U.S. cannot solve this problem for the region.” Odierno is stepping down and will retire on Friday after 39 years in the military and four years at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. His service has been punctuated by three tours in Iraq that included leading the 4th Infantry Division during the 2003 invasion and serving as the top military commander in the country from 20082010. “It is frustrating to look at what has happened inside of Iraq,” said Odierno, recalling that in 2010 and 2011, the U.S. “thought we had it in a place that was really headed in the right direction.” He said violence was down, the economy was growing and the political situation was stable. “As it turns out, they weren’t prepared to handle it,” he said. “The political factions just simply weren’t able to work together, and based on that, people became frustrated. When people become frustrated, they tend to turn to violence.” And that, he said, allowed Islamic State militants to exploit the fissures and find open territory in Syria to begin to grow their forces and build their capabilities. He called the current situation a stalemate, adding that while IS has been “blunted” and has made little progress since U.S. airstrikes began about a year ago, the group has been able to maintain its overall membership numbers through successful recruiting. He said the U.S. continues to work to help Iraq improve its military operations, and hinted that we are “probably getting ready to see one here in a few days.” In other comments, he called Russia the most dangerous military threat to the U.S. right now, because Moscow is “more mature” than many other U.S. adversaries and has shown significant, sophisticated capabilities in its invasion of Ukraine. He said the Army has been working to rebuild its ability to fight an adversary like Russia over the past 18 months, mainly training for hybrid warfare, which includes a mix of conventional, counterinsurgency, cyber, space and other military capabilities. Ramon Espinosa | AP A man walks along the ledge of a building after hanging two giant Cuban flags next to the US embassy in Havana, Cuba, on Tuesday. The embassy will hold a ceremony on Friday to raise the U.S. flag to mark its reopening on Havana’s historic waterfront. Cuba dissidents won’t attend event By Bradley Klapper and Michael Weissenstein Associated Press WASHINGTON — Cuban dissidents, so long the center of U.S. policy toward the island, won’t be invited to Secretary of State John Kerry’s historic flag-raising at the U.S. Embassy in Havana on Friday, vividly illustrating how U.S. policy is shifting focus to its singleparty government. Kerry intends to meet more quietly with prominent activists later in the day, officials said. The Cuban government labels its domestic opponents as traitorous U.S. mercenaries. As the two countries have moved to restore relations, Cuba has almost entirely stopped meeting with American politicians who visit dissidents during trips to Havana. That presented a quandary for U.S. officials organizing the ceremony on Friday to mark the reopening of the embassy on Havana’s historic waterfront. Inviting dissidents would risk a boycott by Cuban officials including those who negotiated with the U.S. after Presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro declared detente on Dec. 17. Excluding dissidents would certainly provoke fierce criticism from opponents of Obama’s new policy, including Cuban-American Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio. Officials familiar with the plans for Kerry’s visit, the first by a sitting U.S. secretary of state to Cuba since World War II, told The Associated Press that a compromise was in the works. The dissidents won’t be invited to the embassy event, but a small group will meet with Kerry at the U.S. chief of mission’s home in the afternoon, where a lower-key, flag-raising ceremony is scheduled. “It really is not at all a change although it’s very much in keeping with the new policy,” a senior State Department official told reporters Wednesday, speaking on condition of anonymity in accordance with the rules for the briefing. “The opening ceremony, which is the flag-raising ceremony at the embassy, is principally a government-togovernment event.” Their presence at the embassy would have risked setting back the new spirit of cooperation the U.S. hopes to engender, according to the officials, who weren’t authorized to speak publicly about internal planning and demanded anonymity. But not meeting them at all, they said, would send an equally bad signal. “It wouldn’t be surprising if North American diplomats prioritize contacts with the Cuban government,” said Elizardo Sanchez, head of the Cuban Commission on Human Rights and National Reconciliation, a relatively moderate dissident group. “If we show up, they leave.” The Obama administra- tion says it is normalizing ties with Cuba after more than 50 years of hostility failed to shake the communist state’s hold on power. It argues that dealing directly with Cuba over issues ranging from human rights to trade is far likelier to produce democratic and freemarket reforms over the long term. Key dissidents told the AP late Tuesday that they had not received invitations to any of Friday’s events. Dissident Yoani Sanchez’s online newspaper 14ymedio has received no credential for the U.S. Embassy event, said editor Reinaldo Escobar, who is married to Sanchez. “The right thing to do would be to invite us and hear us out despite the fact that we don’t agree with the new U.S. policy,” said Antonio Rodiles, head of the dissident group Estado de SATS. In a statement Wednesday, Rubio called the embassy omissions “a slap in the face” to Cuba’s democracy activists. “Cuban dissidents are the legitimate representa- For low prices on high-quality lumber and all your home improvement needs, this is the place! SPF LUMBER Do we have your attention now? Advertise your business in this space, or bigger Call us at: 740.992.2155 tives of the Cuban people and it is they who deserve America’s red carpet treatment, not Castro regime officials,” Rubio said. The cautious approach is consistent with how Obama has handled the question of support for dissidents since he and Castro announced a prisoner swap in December and their intention to create a broader improvement in relations. The process has resulted in unilateral steps by Obama to ease the economic embargo on Cuba and last month’s formal upgrading of both countries’ interests sections into fullfledged embassies. When senior diplomat Roberta Jacobson held talks in Havana in January, she met several government critics at the end of her historic trip but was restrained in her criticism of the government. Since then, American politicians have flooded Havana to see the sights, meet the country’s new entrepreneurs and discuss possibly ending the U.S. embargo with leaders of the communist government. 8’ 10’ 12’ 14’ 16’ 2x4 2.49 3.07 3.68 4.43 5.37 2x6 3.60 4.98 5.88 6.58 7.68 2x8 5.37 6.71 8.05 9.39 10.73 2x10 9.87 12.33 14.80 17.27 19.73 2x12 12.80 16.00 19.20 22.40 25.60 HOGG & ZUSPAN MATERIALS CO.

At the Gold King Mine, Begaye, president of the Navajo Nation, couldn’t help but see the concerned faces of his people — the farmers who can’t water their corn now, and the ranchers scrambling to keep their cattle, sheep and goats away from the polluted San Juan River. “We were told that the water was clearing up and getting back to normal,” he said. “This is what EPA was telling us.

When they first come into the shelter, regardless of the reason they were dropped off, it is a traumatic experience. Being in a new place with strangers can be unsettling, shelter staff say, and sometimes all that is needed is a friendly human to reassure them they are in a safe place. The staff provides that environment and volunteers can be of assistance by walking and spending time with them. These animals need fresh air and exercise to remain healthy until they can go to their forever homes. To volunteer just stop by the shelter Thursday from 6p.m. to 8.pm. and select one of the many friendly dogs to walk. The Shelter can always use your help with supplies. A list of needed items is available by calling the Shelter. Another easy way to donate is to go to Amazon.com and find the Universal Wish List for Meigs County Dog Shelter. All items purchased from Amazon will ship directly to the Meigs shelter. If you have household items and gently used clothing you are no longer using, the Meigs County Humane Society would like you to consider donating them for resale in their thrift store. Donated items are sold and money received from sales goes directly into efforts in Meigs County for neutering and spaying dogs and cats. For more information on the Humane Society, located at 305 N 2nd Ave. in Middleport, contact 740- 992-6064. The Meigs County Dog Shelter is located at 41790 Fairgrounds Lane in Pomeroy.

EPA officials said Wednesday that these ponds aren’t retaining the flow, but they are reducing acidity levels and removing dissolved metals from the water from the runoff flowing into Cement Creek. That flow continues at pre-spill levels of about 213 gallons per minute, but is spreading less contamination than it did before last week’s accident. Signs are now posted warning people to stay out of the water. Farmers have stopped irrigating and communities have closed water intake systems. Bottled water on the Navajo Nation is becoming scarce. close as we could to the source. We wanted our people to see the water is still yellow.” Climbing unannounced past barriers and up the mountain, Begaye and a small contingent of Navajo officials got a closer look over the weekend at the mine blowout sending more than 3 million gallons of water laden with lead, arsenic and other metals into Cement Creek, then down the Animas River and into the San Juan River. A 100-mile-long plume has since traveled for hundreds of miles, through parts of Colorado, New Mexico and Utah on the way to Lake Powell, a key source of water for the Southwest. And the yellow sludge has been diluted along the way to the point of transparency, but authorities were still concerned about potentially toxic metals in the plume.

Rio athletics begin online ticket sales By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Fans who regularly attend University of Rio Grande home athletic contests now have the convenience of purchasing tickets online in advance of gameday. Through a partnership between the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) and AudienceView, a world leader in e-commerce software for events and entertainment organizations, NAIA member schools can now sell tickets, take donations and manage registrations for events, camps and clinics in a single shopping cart. AV Community, AudienceView’s subscription-based product suite designed to serve and amplify brands and their communities, allows NAIA members to better engage fans, find new donors and season ticket holders, and drive incremental revenue through merchandise sales and more, all within a single, NAIA-branded events portal known as the NAIA Event Hub. “AV Community is a game-changer for all NAIA member institutions,” said Jim Carr, NAIA President and CEO. “It is a great central toolset for schools that are aiming to expand fan engagement, operational efficiency and fundraising across their athletics departments, all under the NAIA Community umbrella. Ultimately, AV Community will provide new and meaningful ways to support the 60,000 student-athletes who are at the center of all NAIA experiences.” Rio Grande athletic director Jeff Lanham echoed Carr’s sentiments. “We’re living in an age where, as a result of technological advances, the customer base for all types of business - including college athletics - demands convenience. The NAIA Event Hub accomplishes that and we’re happy to be on board,” Lanham said. “Our fans, if they choose to do so, now have the opportunity to buy their tickets - in addition to making contributions to our athletic department - from their home computer or mobile device just like they would do if they were making any other kind of credit card transaction. As a result, we also get to see exactly who is attending our athletic events and, in turn, gain a better idea of how to engage those people.” Fans can also print the tickets that they’ve purchased for presentation at the time of admission. University of Rio Grande students and faculty, who are admitted to home athletic events for no charge with a Rio Grande ID, can also obtain their ticket through the Event Hub, although their Rio Grande ID will still be required at the time of admission. Tickets can be purchased through the link at the top of the homepage on the school’s athletic website (www.rioredstorm.com) or by accessing the schedule page of a particular sport on the same website. “We’re anxious to see how many folks take advantage of what we’re now able to offer,” Lanham said. “Folks will still be able to get their tickets at the gate as they always have, but we encourage them to give the Event Hub a try. And, who knows, in the future we may even look to include other activities here on campus that aren’t athletic-related.” Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande.

Stretch Internet to stream Rio Grande athletics By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing RIO GRANDE, Ohio — University of Rio Grande athletic fans who have become accustomed to following the RedStorm via the internet will once again be able to do just that this fall. The school has signed a three-year contract with Stretch Internet to provide live streaming of home - and selected road - athletic events involving the men’s and women’s soccer, volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball and softball programs. “We’re excited to once again be able to showcase some of our athletic teams via the internet by renewing an old partnership we had with Stretch,” said Rio Grande athletic director Jeff Lanham. “In addition to live video and audio streaming, we’ll also be able to make live stats a part of the broadcast. I think the folks who follow us via the web will be pleased.” Rio Grande, which had streamed its events in recent seasons through Volar Video, Inc.’s platform of iHigh/Team1Sports, had an earlier partnership with Stretch shortly after the Mesa, Az.-based company was formed in 2003. The most notable difference for fans will be that the webcasts will no longer be Southern golf finishes 2nd By Donald Lambert elambert@civitasmedia.com BEVERLY, Ohio — It was a good home trip. The Waterford golf team earned a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division victory over Miller and Southern on Tuesday at the Lakeside Golf Club in Washington County. The match was contested under the play six, count four format. The Wildcats were led by Cam Bosner, who fired a 34, followed by Josh Stewart (40) and Jordan Welch (44). A 42 from Alex Branham, a 41 from Wes Jenkins and a 36 from Isaac Trader rounded out Waterford’s total of 151. The Tornadoes were led by Eli Hunter, who shot a 48, followed by Ryan Acree (50), Jonah Hoback (52) and Jensen Anderson (53). A 61 from Ashley Acree and a 66 from Trey Wood rounded out Southern’s total of 203. The Eagles were led by Colin Paragoen, who shot a 54, followed by Hunter Jewett (61). A 65 from Blain Needham and a 68 from both Brody Dutiel and Adam Williams rounded out Miller’s total of 248. Donald Lambert can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2106 it. We really don’t have a choice.” However, Lanham added that an effort was made to come up with business plan which was affordable to the customer and beneficial to the individual programs. “We tried to come up with something that was good for everybody,” he said. “On paper, $89.95 might look like a lot of money for an all-access pass, but when you consider our plan is to do somewhere in the neighborhood of 170 webcasts in the 2015-16 school year, that’s just over 50 cents per game. Even the single-season pass with the fewest number of webcasts comes out to less offered free of charge. The webcasts will be available for purchase at three different levels - $7.95 per game, $24.95 for a single-sport season pass and $89.95 for an all-access pass, which includes every webcast the school produces. “We weren’t going to be able to provide our fans with free webcasts this season, even if we hadn’t decided to make the change,” Lanham said. “We’re not crazy about the fact that we have to go the pay-per-view route but, unfortunately, just about every other school in the country which produces webcasts of its athletic contests is doing than $2 per game. No, it’s not free, but it’s very affordable.” Rio Grande will receive 50 percent of the revenue produced from the pay-per-view purchases. Half of that total will go back to the individual sport, with the remaining portion going toward the maintenance of the equipment needed to produce the webcasts. The first scheduled broadcast on the new platform is set for Wednesday, Aug. 26, when the RedStorm women’s soccer team entertains Marian (Ind.) University at Evan E. Davis Field. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. Iwakuma tosses no-hitter in 3-0 win By Tim Booth AP Sports Writer SEATTLE — Hisashi Iwakuma became the second Japanese-born pitcher in major league history to throw a no-hitter, leading the Seattle Mariners to a 3-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. The right-hander struck out seven and walked three in the fourth no-hitter this season and first by an American League pitcher in nearly three years. Hideo Nomo threw big league two no-nos after starting his career in his home country of Japan. “I was aware of it obviously, but I felt it real deep in my heart in the ninth inning,” Iwakuma said through a translator. “Just focusing on one hitter at a time and I’m glad I got it done.” Ted S. Warren | AP Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma is hugged by first baseman Logan Morrison, right, after the final out of Iwakuma’s no-hitter against the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday, in Seattle.

Third baseman Kyle Seager made a nifty, twisting over-the-shoulder catch in foul territory to start the ninth, but the 34-yearold Iwakuma needed little help in completing his first career complete game and the Mariners’ fifth no-hitter. Teammate Felix Hernandez’s perfect game against the Tampa Bay Rays on Aug. 15, 2012, was the last time an AL pitcher did not allow a hit in a game. There have been 15 no-hitters by NL pitchers since then. With Mariners fans on their feet and cheering, Iwakuma got Gerardo Parra to line out softly to center fielder Austin Jackson for the first no-hitter against Baltimore since Boston’s Clay Buchholz did it in 2007. Baltimore has been no-hit seven times. After his 116th pitch settled in Jackson’s glove, Iwakuma was mobbed by his teammates. Hernandez was wearing a fuzzy bear hat that was handed out as a promotion earlier in the season to honor Iwakuma. The only time it appeared the Orioles might get a hit came in the fourth inning. Manny Machado walked to lead off and Parra chopped a grounder in the hole between first baseman Mark Trumbo and second baseman Robinson Cano. Quickly moving to his left, Cano tracked down the grounder in shallow right field and threw across his body to get Parra at first. Iwakuma walked Chris Davis with two outs, but he struck out Jimmy Paredes to end the threat. Iwakuma also walked Jonathan Schoop on a checkswing, full-count pitch to open the eighth inning. But after striking out Ryan Flaherty looking, Iwakuma got Caleb Joseph to ground into a double play. Iwakuma took the mound for the ninth to a standing ovation from the home crowd taking in the rare weekday matinee. David Lough fouled out to open the ninth with Seager making his remarkable catch. Machado grounded out to Seager for the second out and Parra flew out to shallow center field to end it. Iwakuma pitched 8 2-3 innings twice, including earlier this month against Minnesota. �CLASSIFIEDS Daily Sentinel Miscellaneous Home Improvements Money To Lend Help Wanted General BASEMENT WATERPROOFING Unconditional Lifetime Guarantee.

DR_16461_10x4.5 �SPORTS 4B Thursday, August 13, 2015 Daily Sentinel Browns rookie lineman having huge impact By Tom Withers AP Sports Writer BEREA, Ohio — His frizzy hair flowing from the back of his helmet and those tree-trunk-sized calves separate Danny Shelton from others on the Browns’ practice field. But there’s something else about the 339-pound defensive tackle that makes him unique. “He’s just a big boy who can move,” said linebacker Paul Kruger. And hit, and just maybe push Cleveland’s defense to an elite level this season. A first-round pick from Washington, Shelton has been impressive since training camp opened. He made a huge splash last week in the team’s intrasquad scrimmage in Columbus when he rumbled across the field to put a hard hit on unsuspecting wide receiver Marlon Moore, who was lucky to escape the collision intact and got up looking for a license plate number. “It was amazing,” Browns defensive lineman Phil Taylor said. “A lot of people don’t think 345-pound-plus guys can run to the ball, but they’re wrong.” Shelton’s quick feet are just one of the qualities that prompted the Browns to ignore other pressing needs and use the No. 12 overall pick in this year’s draft to select him.

But beyond his ability to take on two blockers at once or pressure the quarterback — he twice flushed Johnny Manziel from the pocket during the scrimmage — Shelton has impressed Cleveland’s coaches and his teammates with a positive attitude and work ethic not always seen in young players. Shelton is typically one of the first players on the practice field, using the extra time to get prepared physically and mentally. And once he’s on the field, Shelton buzzes around like a gigantic bumblebee. He’s constantly in motion, bobbing to music pumping through speakers on the field or pacing while waiting for the offense to break the huddle. “I have to be different from the norm. I challenge myself to come out every day to come out with positive energy,” the easygoing Shelton said. “If I have to fake it or bring it up and just get everybody hyped up I have to do that. My teammates know what type guy I am. I have to continue to be on that same track.” He’s on a good one now, and as the Browns prepared to open the exhibition season on Thursday night against Washington, Kruger said STATEWIDE ADS CAREER TRAINING: Spring Valley Green Apartments 1 BR at $450 Month. 446-1599.

Kruger played alongside Ngata and sees similarities between his former and current teammate who share a Polynesian heritage. “A little different in skill set and body type, but the one thing you can compare is power and the ability to move at that size,” Kruger said. Shelton views Ngata as a role model. “Haloti was definitely a guy that all Polynesians looked up to,” said Shelton. “He had all the tangibles to be great. I hope that I’m on the right track just to where he’s at.” Shelton’s nose-to-nose matchups with Browns Pro Bowl center Alex Mack have been a daily attraction at camp. Shelton has won a few of the battles, and he’s been humbled on more than one occasion by Mack, one of the league’s best interior linemen. “Everybody wants to get a piece of Alex,” said Shelton. “Every chance I get I want to do my best. I’m always learning from him.” In the past few years, Shelton has immersed himself in his culture. The son of a Samoan mother, Shelton graduated with a degree in anthropology and studied abroad in Tahiti to learn more about his ancestry. After he was selected by the Browns, Shelton walked on stage wear- ing a maroon lava-lava, a traditional skirt-like garment, before he bearhugged and lifted NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell off the floor. Shelton has been passing out lava-lavas to his teammates, who are proudly wearing the rookie’s gifts around the Browns’ facility. NOW: 1-800-939-8334 Stop OVERPAYING for your prescriptions!

DR_16461_3x3.5 �SPORTS 6B Thursday, August 13, 2015 Judge belittles ‘Deflategate’ By Tom Hays and Larry Neumeister Associated Press NEW YORK — A federal judge put the NFL on the defensive over its four-game suspension of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady on Wednesday, demanding to know what evidence directly links Brady to deflating footballs and belittling the drama of the controversy. “What is the direct evidence that implicates Mr. Brady?” Judge Richard M. Berman repeatedly asked NFL lawyer Daniel L. Nash at the first hearing in the civil case in Manhattan federal court as Brady and Commissioner Roger Goodell looked on. Nash responded there was “considerable evidence Mr. Brady clearly knew about this,” including records of text messages and phone calls between the quarterback and one of two Patriots employees implicated in the scandal known as “Deflategate.” But he also said there was no “smoking gun” showing Brady had direct knowledge that the balls were underinflated for the first half of the Patriots’ 45-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC championship game Jan. 18. Brady and Goodell didn’t speak during the hearing, except to introduce themselves to Berman. Brady, his head lowered, looked dour throughout a hearing that lasted about 1 hour, 20 minutes. Immediately afterward, Brady smiled slightly as he signed sketches for two court artists. Berman then met individually with each side for more settlement discussions in private. The talks continued for several hours into the afternoon. Two weeks ago, the NFL asked Berman to declare that its punishment of Brady was properly carried out. The players’ union countersued, asking him to nullify the suspension. The judge has signaled from the start that he wants the parties to reach a swift settlement. On Wednesday, Berman called it “ironic or not” that Brady’s statistics were better in the second half of the AFC championship game, after the balls were re-inflated. “You might say (Brady) got no better advantage from the under-inflation,” the judge said. At one point, the judge also seemed to try to defuse the controversy, saying: “This Deflategate. I’m not sure where the ‘gate’ comes from.” When the union got its chance to argue, the judge asked attorney Jeffrey L. Kessler why one of the Patriots employees would deflate balls without Brady’s knowledge. Kessler said the union does not believe the balls were deflated but, if they were, the employee did it on his own because he “thought it would be good for his quarterback.” Daily Sentinel Stars mixing it up in camp fights By Steve Reed little thing and you just let it go.” The problem is some NFL training camps don’t let it go. are in full swing.

Here’s a list of some of the memorable ones this summer: PANTHERS: QB Cam Newton runs down CB Josh Norman after getting stiff-armed following an interception. Newton finds himself at the bottom of the pile with his helmet off and the two are separated by teammates. Results — No injuries reported, but Newton says he’d do it again, adding “it’s football. Let’s not get it twisted about football.” Norman hasn’t spoken to the media. JETS: QB Geno Smith is “sucker-punched” by LB Ikemefuna Enemkpali in the locker room over something that coach Todd Bowles said had nothing to do with football and was “very childish.” Results — Smith, entering his third season, will require surgery to repair the injuries and is out 6-10 weeks. Enemkpali was immediately released. REDSKINS-TEXANS: On the third day of joint practices, numerous players are involved in what amounted to a bench-clearing brawl on a rainy afternoon. It was the result of several individual fights leading up to it. Results — No reported injuries, but coaches from both teams agreed to practice on their own the remainder of the day. COWBOYS: WR Dez Bryant attempts to run a route and gets tangled up with CB Tyler Patmon. Both players exchange haymakers before teammates step in and separate them. Results — No injuries and both players later laughed it off, insisting they still respect each other as players. CHIEFS: Three scuffles highlighted Sunday’s practice, the most noteworthy being high-priced free agent acquisition WR Jeremy Maclin getting into it with CB Marcus Cooper. Cooper grabbed Maclin during his route, and Maclin took exception. Words were exchanged, then a couple of punches. Results — No injuries reported. TITANS: Night practice with three scuffles, although the best was a non-fight. As a couple teammates were brawling, DL Karl Klug and LT Taylor Lewan circled each other a bit with Lewan holding onto Klug’s face mask. They stared each other down, then walked away. Results — Lewan said they made an agreement not to fight each other. No punches were thrown. part of what makes them who they are. It wasn’t the smartest idea for Newton, who just signed a $103 million contract, to chase down cornerback Josh Norman and tackle him after Norman stiff-armed him during an interception return. But Newton said he do it over again. He views himself as a football player, not just a franchise quarterback, who is “all about getting the respect of my guys.” 60599028 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
