Meigs County’s rate increased from 11.1 percent in May to 12.7 percent in June. Both figures are still below the highest make of 2013 at 14.4 percent in January. The 12.7 percent rate gives Meigs County the state’s highest unemployment after several months of either ranking second or third in the category. Pike County had previously held the highest rate, but now ranks second at 12.4 percent — up from 11.9 percent in May. In Gallia County, the unemployment rate jumped from 7.9 percent in May to 8.8 percent in June. The rate remains lower than the 11 percent unemployment in January 2013. Gallia County is currently tied 18th with Brown County. In May, Gallia was tied for 21st with Ross and Lawrence counties. Gallia County was tied for 23rd in April and 37th in March. Other counties with an unemployment rate above 10 percent in June are Scioto at 11.6, Adams at 11.2, Morgan at 11, Jefferson at 10.6, Monroe at 10.4, and Clinton, Noble and Vinton at 10.2. When it comes to unemployment rates — in terms of rankings, it’s a good thing when a county’s number rises with the higher the ranking, the lower the unemployment. Mercer County remains ranked 88th with an unemployment rate of 4.6 percent, followed by Holmes County at 5.0, Delaware County at 5.3, Auglaize County at 5.4 and Union County at 5.7. Ohio had an unemployment rate of 7.5 percent in June, up from 6.9 percent in May. The national unemployment rate was 7.8 percent in June, up from 7.3 percent in May. A total of 46 Ohio counties had unemployment rates lower than the state rate. Another four counties have a rate between the state and national rates. In Southeast Ohio, other unemployment numbers include, Athens County, 8.9 percent; Jackson County, 9.2 percent; Washington County, 6.9 percent; Lawrence County, 8.7 percent; Ross County, 8.3 percent; Pickaway County, 7.6; Perry County, 9.3 percent; and Hocking County, 7.4 percent. Shooting investigation continues Enjoying a day at the park Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com POMEROY — Senior citizens, many residents of nursing homes, and several young people enjoyed a day of fishing and a picnic at the Mulberry Community Pond recently. Volunteer Jim Smith, who has worked several years to improve the pond and its surroundings, planned the event where a tent shielded the seniors from the sun and fishing poles were provided for those who came without. Trophies, donated by Locker 219 in Middleport, were awarded to the winners of the fishing derby. Food for the luncheon was provided by the village and prepared by Mayor Jackie Welker with village workers assisting. Funding for the event came from several sources including a state grant which was supplemented by donations from local businesses.

Springs Nursing Home and Carleton School. GLENWOOD — The Mason County Sheriff’s Department has released the name of Monday’s shooting victim. Shane A. Meadows, 25, Glenwood, was pronounced dead at the scene. Meadows received a single gunshot wound, according to the sheriff’s department. The incident, which took place at a home on Chandler Ridge Road in the Glenwood area Monday afternoon, “appears to be the result of a disagreement between acquaintances,” according to a press release from the sheriff’s department. Sheriff Greg Powers said Meadows did not live at the residence on Chandler Ridge Road. A person inside the home allegedly shot Meadows and was taken in for questioning about the incident but has not been charged at this point. This alleged shooter has not been identified but is said to have been cooperative with law enforcement. Powers said questions still remain about events which led up to the shooting and circumstances surrounding it. He said his department is actively pursuing the investigation and once completed, it will be turned over to the Mason County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for a recommendation on how to proceed. Powers said he had no time line as to when the investigation would be complete, adding it was still early on. He said the autopsy on Meadows’ body was done on Tuesday. “This appears to have been an isolated incident between two persons who knew each other … it presents no danger to the public,” Powers said. The West Virginia State Police are also assisting in the investigation and provided its mobile crime lab unit at the scene. Meadows Facebook page says he was a native of Glenwood, attended Hannan High School for awhile but was a 2006 graduate of Winfield High School. The Meadows shooting brings the total of people who have been shot to death in Mason County since 2011 to five. The last shooting death in Mason County occurred in April 2012, prior to that, there were three shooting deaths in the summer of 2011.

Sutton said that the Queen is built to carry 436 passengers with a crew 0f 174. “When she was built in 1995, she was originally part of a three-boat company,” Sutton said. “The other two are no longer in service.

Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep & Ram Dealer introduces its starting 5 WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. hopes negotiations for a free trade deal with the European Union will drive growth-oriented reforms in the EU economy, the top American trade official said Tuesday. In a similar vein, U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman said China’s recent agreement to negotiate a bilateral investment treaty with the United States is a chance to press for economic reforms in the Asian giant that could level the playing field for American businesses. Froman also told the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Washington he was “cautiously optimistic” the U.S. could reach a major trade agreement with Pacific Rim countries by the end of the year despite some skepticism over that timetable after Japan’s late entry into the talks. Froman noted that the U.S. goal for all trade agreements currently being negotiated was to promote job creation here and bolster the middle class. One key to success in newly launched talks on a Trans-Atlantic trade deal with Europe will be eliminating unnecessary regulatory barriers to trade, Froman said. And as Europe struggles to pull itself out of recession, he cautioned the bloc not to rely too heavily on exporting to the U.S. as a way out of its current problems. The proposed Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership has raised great expectations of boosting growth and jobs by eliminating tariffs and other barriers that have long plagued economic relations. It would create a market with common standards and regulations across countries that account for nearly Assurance & Comfort When You Need It Most Since 1937 Anderson McDaniel Funeral Home Has Served your community Put Your Trust in us...

Regarding Japan’s recent entry into the TransPacific Partnership trade negotiations, Froman said it was critical that the country resolve longstanding issues over opening its markets to American products — particularly barriers to U.S. autos, farm products and insurance services. In 2010, for example, the United States exported about 14,000 vehicles to Japan, while importing some 1.5 million vehicles. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has said that he is prepared to expose his country’s sheltered industries to more foreign competition, but he faces strong resistance from many in his own party. Talks on the trade deal began more than two years ago and Japan just joined 11 other participants — Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the U.S. and Vietnam. With Japan, it would be the largest free-trade agreement ever, including countries that make up about 40 percent of world trade.

Froman said both the U.S. and European markets are heavily regulated and have high standards when it comes to health, safety and environmental protection. But he said they must eliminate unnecessary differences and frictions in regulation that prevent a free flow of goods and services across borders. The two sides are at odds over agricultural and financial services regulation, among other restrictions. Turning to China, Froman said he saw encouraging signs for bilateral relations as China’s new leadership grapples with serious economic issues such as deciding whether it wants to rely so heavily on export-led growth to questions about air pollution and food safety. “China agreeing to start negotiations on a bilateral investment treaty … is a potentially very important development and could help drive reform in China,” Froman said. China agreed to negotiate the treaty during annual U.S.-China security and economic talks in Washington earlier this month. The U.S. has been pushing for such a treaty for years, saying it would facilitate more protections and market access for American investors in China, where state-owned company enjoy many competitive advantages.

(AP) — U.S. Army Pfc. Bradley Manning was acquitted of aiding the enemy — the most serious charge he faced — but was convicted of espionage, theft and other charges Tuesday, more than three years after he spilled secrets to WikiLeaks. The judge, Army Col. Denise Lind, deliberated for about 16 hours over three days before reaching her decision in a case that drew worldwide attention as supporters hailed Manning as a whistleblower. The U.S. government called him an anarchist computer hacker and attention-seeking traitor. Manning stood at attention, flanked by his attorneys, as the judge read her verdicts. He appeared not to react, though his attorney, David Coombs, smiled faintly when he heard not guilty on aiding the enemy, which carried a potential life sentence. When the judge was done, Coombs put his hand on Manning’s back and whispered something to him, eliciting a slight smile on the soldier’s face. Manning was convicted on 19 of 21 charges, and he previously pleaded guilty to a charge involving an Icelandic cable. He faces up to 136 years in prison. His sentencing hearing begins Wednesday. Coombs came outside the court to a round of applause and shouts of “thank you” from a few dozen Manning supporters. “We won the battle, now we need to go win the war,” Coombs said of the sentencing phase. “Today is a good day, but Bradley is by no means out of the fire.” Supporters thanked him for his work. One slipped him a private note. Others asked questions about verdicts that they didn’t understand. Manning’s court-martial was unusual because he acknowledged giving the anti-secrecy website more than 700,000 battlefield reports and diplomatic cables, and video of a 2007 U.S. helicopter attack that killed civilians in Iraq, including a Reuters news photographer and his driver. In the footage, airmen laughed and called targets “dead bastards.” A military investigation found troops mistook the camera equipment for weapons. Besides the aiding the enemy acquittal, Manning was also found not guilty of an espionage charge when the judge found prosecutors had not proved their assertion Manning started giving material to WikiLeaks in late 2009. Manning said he started the leaks in February the following year. Manning pleaded guilty earlier this year to lesser offenses that could have brought him 20 years behind bars, yet the government continued to pursue all but one of the original, more serious charges. Manning said during a pre-trial hearing in February he leaked the material to expose the U.S military’s “bloodlust” and disregard for human life, and what he considered American diplomatic deceit. He said he chose information he believed would not the harm the United States and he wanted to start a debate on military and foreign policy. He did not testify at his court-martial. Coombs portrayed Manning as a “young, naive but good-intentioned” soldier who was in emotional turmoil, partly because he was a gay service member at a time when homosexuals were barred from serving openly in the U.S. military. He said Manning could have sold the information or given it directly to the enemy, but he gave it to WikiLeaks in an attempt to “spark reform” and provoke debate. Counterintelligence witnesses valued the Iraq and Afghanistan war logs at about $5.7 million. Coombs said Manning had no way of knowing whether al-Qaida would access the secret-spilling website and a 2008 counterintelligence report showed the government itself didn’t know much about the site. The defense attorney also mocked the testimony of a former supervisor who said Manning told her the American flag meant nothing to him and she suspected before they deployed to Iraq that Manning was a spy. Coombs noted she had not written up a report on Manning’s alleged disloyalty, though had written ones on him taking too many smoke breaks and drinking too much coffee. The government said Manning had sophisticated security training and broke signed agreements to protect the secrets. He even had to give a presentation on operational security during his training after he got in trouble for posting a YouTube video about what he was learning. The lead prosecutor, Maj. Ashden Fein, said Manning knew the material would be seen by al-Qaida, a key point prosecutor needed to prove to get an aiding the enemy conviction. Even Osama bin Laden had some of the digital files at his compound when he was killed. Some of Manning’s supporters attended nearly every day of two-month trial, many of them protesting outside the Fort Meade gates each day before the court-martial. They wore T-shirts with the word “truth” on them, blogged, tweeted and raised money for Manning’s defense. One supporter was banned from the trial because the judge said he made online threats. Explosions rock Fla. gas plant TAVARES, Fla. (AP) — A series of explosions rocked a central Florida propane gas plant, igniting a 200foot high fireball, and sent the sound of “boom after boom after boom” through the neighborhood around it. Eight people were injured, with at least four in critical condition. John Herrell of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said early Tuesday that no one died despite massive blasts that ripped through the Blue Rhino propane plant property late Monday night. Officials initially scrambled to find more than a dozen employees after the explosions. Neighboring houses were evacuated, but no damage to them was reported. “Management is comfortable saying all of those they knew were there tonight have been accounted for,” he said. Tavares Fire Chief Richard Keith said possible causes of the explosion may be either equipment malfunction or human error. Sabotage was not suspected. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration launched an investigation, as did the Florida State Fire Marshal’s office. One person injured in the explosion was listed in critical condition at University of Florida Health Shands Hospital and three others were listed in critical condition at Orlando Regional Medical Center. Herrell said some others drove themselves to area hospitals. Tavares Fire Department Battalion Commander Eric Wages said five workers walked up to a command center firefighters set up near the plant Monday night with skin hanging off their arms, torso and faces. He said their arms were outstretched and they were in complete shock. The Blue Rhino plant, which is northwest of Orlando, refilled propane tanks typically used gas grills and other home uses. There were some 53,000 20-pound canisters at the plant on Monday. Smoke still billowed on Tuesday morning from a storage container on the property, which consists of a couple of warehouses next to each other. The parking lot was littered with thousands of blackened 20-pound propane containers. Nearby, three 33,000-pound tanks of propane sat untouched. Lake County Battalion Chief Chris Croughwell said the hoses designed to spray water on the large tanks in case of fire, did not go off as planned because they had to be manually activated. “Most sane people don’t stick around for an event like this,” he added. Tavares Mayor Robert Wolfe said Tuesday that he was surprised to learn the hoses at the plant had to be manually activated. If Blue Rhino reopens the plant, Wolfe said he plans to raise the safety issue. “That way, it’s fail safe,” Wolfe said. “We’re lucky those tanks didn’t explode.” One of the large tanks had a small leak that was detected mid-morning, so fire officials poured water on it “Management is comfortable saying all of those they knew were there tonight have been accounted for.” —John Herrell Lake County Sheriff’s Office and later began draining it, Wolfe said. The threat was considered minimal and no evacuation was ordered, he said. The Florida Division of Emergency Management responded overnight and briefed Gov. Rick Scott. Gene Williams, a third-shift maintenance worker at the plant, said he was at the back of the warehouse when he heard two loud explosions. Most of the workers were inside the facility, but there were about five in the parking lot. When he went to look outside, there was a fireball about 20-feetby-20-feet about 100 yards from the plant’s loading dock in an area where the 20-pound propane canisters are stored on plastic pallets. After that, a forklift driver stumbled into the building. He had flesh hanging off his hands, and his legs and face were burned. Williams said he got the man in a van as the cylinders from the 20-pound tanks starting falling down around them. He said they were doing repairs and painting the tanks when one of the paint lines had broken, but it was repaired. The workers were getting ready to go home when the explosion happened. Based on what the forklift operator told him, the explosion was likely caused by a “combination of human error and bad practices, possibly. I don’t want to speculate any further, that’s what the forklift driver was telling me.” Williams said the forklift driver told him, “‘I did what they told me to do, I did what they told me to do, and then this happened.’” “Something in that area must have triggered it. I don’t know if he did something or something else triggered it,” Williams said. Williams said they were able to cut off propane to the three big tanks. But they weren’t able to get to the switch for the cooling hoses. “It was too violent, too hot, to get in there and turn them on,” he said. Williams said one of the injured people was hit by a car trying to run across the road. The Florida Highway Patrol confirmed that 29-year-old Leesburg resident Kaghy Sam was struck by an SUV driven by 72-year-old Gene Batson on a road near the Blue Rhino plant. A statement from the FHP to The Associated Press said that Sam was running on the road “due to a large fire and several explosions” just be- fore 11 p.m. Monday and “ran into the direct path” of Batson’s vehicle. Sam was flown to Ocala Regional Medical Center with serious injuries. No charges were filed in the accident. Blue Rhino is a subsidiary of Kansas-based national propane provider Ferrellgas. Spokesman Scott Brockelmeyer said Tuesday he didn’t have information available about the safety water hoses. “It’s as sobering a situation as you can possibly imagine,” Brockelmeyer said. “We have folks who are injured, and we’ve got Blue Rhino and Ferrellgas employees across the country who are keeping them in their prayers and sending good vibes their way.” Brockelmeyer said there were 14 full-time employees and 10 part-time workers in the plant when the explosions occurred Monday night. Ferrellgas did pay a $2,295 fine in November 2011 following an OSHA inspection that found a component at the end of an air hose used in the consumer tank refurbishing process was not present. Brockelmeyer said the company corrected the issue and added that “the process is performed in area away from where the tanks are filled….so no product was being processed in that area.” Croughwell said firefighters who responded to the initial fire had to wait to enter plant site because conditions were so dangerous. Just as they were finally about to go in, four tractor-trailers parked next to the large propane tanks caught fire. If the large tanks exploded, Croughwell said, “it would have wiped us out.” Video footage on WESH-TV in Orlando showed fires burning through trucks used to transport propane tanks, which were parked at the plant. The fire sent plumes of smoke into the air hours after the blast. Keith said the explosions shook his house several miles from the plant. “It truly sounded like a car hit our house,” he said. Herrell said about 50 homes were evacuated Monday night but residents were allowed back in about four hours later. Marni Whitehead, 33, who lives less than a mile from the plant, said she was in bed ready to go to sleep when she heard a loud boom. She ran outside and saw other neighbors outside and then they saw the explosions. “We knew right away it was the plant, the propane plant,” Whitehead said. “After that, it was just sort of panic.” Whitehead likened the explosions to Fourth of July fireworks. “And it was just boom after boom after boom,” she said. Herrell said officials believe the fire was contained and wouldn’t spread to another part of the plant. According to the Leesburg Daily Commercial, the plant was built in 2004 and employs fewer than 50 people. Man sued over death of woman who answered ad COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio ex-doctor was responsible for the death of an expectant mother who died after answering a Craigslist ad for housecleaning services, according to a $40 million lawsuit that also targets the physician’s employer and Craigslist. The lawsuit filed Monday in county court north of Columbus blames former physician Ali Salim for the death of Deanna Ballman last summer. Craigslist should have known Salim was dangerous because other women who responded to ads Salim placed had experienced problems that were report- ed to police and Craigslist, according to the lawsuit. “Craigslist was on notice and knew or should have known defendant Ali Salim was inherently dangerous to its Internet users,” said the lawsuit, filed on behalf of the woman’s family. It also says Salim’s employer, Knox Community Hospital, was negligent for allowing him to take syringes that the lawsuit says were used to inject Ballman with heroin. Messages seeking comment were left Tuesday for the hospital and Craigslist. The lawsuit also alleges someone helped Salim inject the 23-year-old woman with heroin, something in- Jeff Warner Agency Nationwide Insurance vestigators say they’ve tried unsuccessfully to prove. Nine months pregnant, Ballman was alive on July 31, 2012, when Salim placed her in the back of her car and drove her to a rural road in Delaware County where she was found dead the next day, according to the lawsuit. Investigators, including the Delaware County coroner, have previously declined to say when Ballman died. Salim has pleaded not guilty to kidnapping, raping and killing Ballman by injecting her with heroin, as well as killing her unborn daughter, to be named Mabel Lilly. His criminal trial, originally scheduled for September, has been moved to Oct. 29. Salim’s attorney, Sam Shamansky, has said Ballman was prostituting herself to feed a drug habit. A message was left with Shamansky on Tuesday.

ANDREWS, Scotland — Inbee Park once felt she could walk down the streets of Seoul as the No. 1 player in women’s golf without being recognized. That was two months ago. Now she can’t even make it through a toll booth. The week before she set out to make history at St. Andrews, the 25-year-old Park went home to South Korea to visit family and friends. She was surprised by the number of people who met her at the airport, and who looked her way when she was out in public dressed in regular clothes. “I was driving by the toll gate and some lady was giving me a toll ticket and she was like, ‘Oh, are you Inbee Park?’ And she was stopping my car,” Park said Tuesday. “So there was a lot of episodes there. It’s cool to be recognized and to have a lot of fans. And I think that really helps me.” It helps to be on the verge of doing something no other golfer in this Royal & Ancient game has ever achieved. Slam or not, Park has a shot at something grand. On an Old Course that even in sunshine is dripping with history, she goes after an unprecedented fourth straight major this year at the Women’s British Open. Park is the heavy favorite at St. Andrews, much like Tiger Woods when he won on the Old Course in 2000 to complete the career Grand Slam. The gray old town doesn’t have the same energy level as when a claret jug is on offer, though Park’s name is part of every conversation. Woods (2000-01) and Mickey Wright (1961-62) are the only players to have won four straight professional majors, though never in the same calendar year. Woods was the last player to win three straight majors in a single season. The debate is whether to call it a Grand Slam if Park were to win. The LPGA Tour added a fifth major this year, the Evian Championship in France. The modern version of a Grand Slam is about four majors. The original version of the Grand Slam — from bridge — is about winning them all. It’s a nice problem to have, and it really doesn’t need any definition except to note that it has never been done. “If it could happen, it’s something that I will never forget,” Park said. “My name will be in the history of golf forever, even after I die.” What’s amazing is how quickly Park reached this point. Turn back the calendar two months, and Park already was satisfied with her season. She won the first LPGA Tour major of the year at Kraft Nabisco Championship, which helped her to regain her spot at No. 1 in the world ranking. But the dominant player of her sport? She sure didn’t look that way, especially if anyone happened to be watching a stretch of holes at the Bahamas Classic. On a 145-yard hole, her tee shot was 10 yards short and 20 yards wide of the green. On the next hole, a longer par 3 over a pond and into the breeze, Park fanned a 4-iron so badly that it landed in the middle of the lake. Her next tee shot splashed down closer to the bank — still some 30 yards short of the pin — and she eventually made a 9. She missed the cut. She didn’t break par in any round of her next tournament and finished middle of the pack. “I was really struggling with the swing that week,” Park said. “I was trying different things on the golf course. After that, I found the right swing.” The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Park looks to be somewhere between unstoppable and unbeatable. She won the LPGA Championship in a playoff over Catriona Matthew, and then became made it three straight majors by making the toughest test in golf look like a breeze in her U.S. Women’s Open victory at Sebonack Golf Club. In technical terms, she is driving the ball straighter and her putting stroke is among the purest in women’s golf. What sets her apart is a calm demeanor and a unique outlook for someone who has no reason to think she can’t win every time she tees it up. The higher the pressure, the lower her expectations. That’s the formula she took to the U.S. Women’s Open. “I kept thinking it’s OK if I don’t win,” she said. “I’ve already won five times, and just wanting more is wanting too much.” As far as the attention, Stacy Lewis feels that’s one area where Park deserves more. The star of this show didn’t get much of a turnout for her press conference after a pro-am round Tuesday on the Old Course. The room was not even half full. “I think for what Inbee is doing right now, she’s not getting the credit that she deserves for it,” Lewis said. “If somebody was doing this on the men’s tour, it would be talked about over and over and over again for a month before the major — not just a couple of days before.” Maybe that will help Park, although she is well aware of what’s at stake this week. The attention she received at home in South Korea — her gifts included a gold putter and a red Ferrari that she gets to keep for one year — was nothing like what Se Ri Pak endured after her blockbuster rookie season in 1998. The media crush was so great that Pak was hospitalized briefly for exhaustion. Matthew Daly The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The oil industry and U.S railroads are resisting the Obama administration’s attempt to boost safety standards for the type of rail car involved in a fiery, fatal explosion in Canada, citing costs and technical challenges. Industry groups say it is impractical to retrofit tens of thousands of existing tank cars used to haul oil, even as they have adopted voluntary standards to ensure that cars ordered after October 2011 meet tough requirements recommended by federal transportation experts following a deadly ethanol train derailment and explosion in Illinois two years earlier. A proposed rule to beef up rail-car safety was initially scheduled to be put in place last October, but it has been delayed until late September at the earliest. Officials blamed the delay on the time it has taken to seek and review petitions from industry groups and the public. A final rule isn’t expected until next year. The agency is considering a plan intended to fix a dangerous design flaw in a rail car commonly used to haul oil and other hazardous liquids from coast to coast. The soda-can shaped car, known as the DOT-111, has come under scrutiny from safety experts because of its tendency to split open during derailments and other major accidents. Defects in the car’s structure were noted as far back as 1991. The rail industry estimates that retrofitting older cars would cost at least $1 billion, not including lost-service time for cars removed from the fleet for repairs. “By comparison, derailment costs totaled approximately $64 million over the past five years,” the Association of American Railroads said in a 2011 petition to the federal government. Extra weight from retrofitting cars might even cause overloads, potentially making them less safe, the group said. Officials from an Illinois town near the site of a 2009 ethanol train derailment call the railroads’ stance illogical. Changing federal rules to impose safety standards for new tank cars without requiring a retrofit of existing cars “will provide no real protection to the general public in derailment situations for decades to come,” the village of Barrington, Ill., said in testimony submitted to the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. An unattended Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway train came loose July 6 and hurtled down a 7-mile incline before derailing and igniting in Lac-Megantic, near the Maine border. The fiery explosion killed at least 47 people.

Seventy-two of the train’s 73 cars were carrying crude oil, and at least five exploded, setting off massive explosions that devastated the small lakeside town of 6,000 people. The cars were the DOT111 model. The derailment and resulting explosion are under investigation. It’s unclear whether retrofitted cars would have been able to withstand the impact. Still, transportation experts say the car’s underlying design makes it prone to damage and catastrophic loss of hazardous materials. The pipeline safety agency said in a report this month that the delay was needed to allow “additional coordination” among officials and interested groups, including rail and oil industry representatives, who have lobbied against a rulechange for existing cars. Among the possibilities: splitting the proposed rule into one that addresses new tank cars and another that addresses possible retrofits. In comments submitted to the pipeline safety agency, industry groups asked the Obama administration to focus its rulemaking on cars built after October 2011. Requiring retrofits “could increase compliance costs significantly,” the American Petroleum Institute, the Renewable Fuels Association, the American Chemistry Council and other groups said. In the first half of this year, U.S. railroads moved 178,000 carloads of crude oil. That’s double the number during the same period last year and 33 times more than during the same period in 2009. The Railway Association of Canada estimates that as many as 140,000 carloads of crude oil will be shipped on Canada’s tracks this year, up from 500 carloads in 2009. Much of that increase is from oil produced in the Bakken oil patch in North Dakota and surrounding areas. The train that crashed in Quebec was carrying oil from North Dakota to a refinery in New Brunswick, Canada. The DOT-111 tank car represents more than two-thirds of the rail fleet carrying crude oil. The Associated Press reported in September that the DOT-111 tank car has been allowed to haul hazardous liquids from coast to coast even though transportation officials were aware of the design flaw. The AP had reviewed 20 years of federal rail accident data involving DOT-111 cars used to haul ethanol and found that the cars had been breached in at least 40 serious accidents since 2000. In the previous decade, there were just two breaches. Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., is urging the Obama administration to phase-out DOT-111 tank cars or require freight rail carriers to retrofit them to prevent potential explosions or spills.

Police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner said the alleged victim chose not to pursue charges against the Buckeyes’ leading scorer and second-leading rusher a year ago. “We were in the middle of our investigation,” Weiner said. “The most important thing left to do was interview the (alleged) victim. She met with investigators on Saturday and informed officers that she didn’t want to pursue charges.” Weiner said the case against Hyde was officially closed. Hyde had been suspended from all team activities in the wake of the incident, which occurred July 20 at a downtown bar. Ohio State and Meyer did not immediately offer comment on whether Hyde will be reinstated to the team. Hyde, a 6-foot-2, 242-pound senior from Naples, Fla., scored 17 touchdowns and 102 points to lead the Buckeyes to a 12-0 record last fall. He gained 970 yards on 185 carries, coming within 30 yards of becoming the first running back in Meyer’s coaching career to reach 1,000 yards in a season. At the time of his suspen- sion — the same day three other Buckeyes were disciplined for offthe-field legal problems — Meyer said, “I have a clear set of core values in place that members of this football program are constantly reminded of and are expected to honor. There are also expectations with regard to behavior. I expect our players to conduct themselves responsibly and appropriately and they will be held accountable for their actions.” The alleged victim approached police officers early on July 20 and said she was assaulted inside a bar at 303 S. Front St. Police looked into the allegation but Weiner said the case came to an end when she declined to pursue charges. Ohio State opens its fall camp on Sunday. The Buckeyes’ opener is Aug. 31 against Buffalo at Ohio Stadium.

The Eagles defeated the Browns, 17-16. Browns announce improvements BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Until they start winning, the Browns are doing all they can to keep Cleveland fans happy and entertained. On Monday, team president Alec Scheiner unveiled a five-point plan to enhance the game-day experience for fans, starting this season. After getting feedback from fans, the team prioritized improvements to FirstEnergy Stadium. Starting during the exhibition season, fans will have easier access to the lakefront stadium, improved mobile service, upgraded team stores with more merchandise and new game-day rituals, including splashier pregame introductions, a drum line and a disc jockey on the field before games and in a booth during them. Fans have long complained about long lines at the stadium’s gates. To help alleviate the problem, the Browns have installed 20 new turnstiles and will designate 44 additional security screening chutes to quicken the flow of fans in before kickoff. Scheiner said the improvements should allow 4,000 more fans to enter every 15 minutes. Also, the Browns are sending their season-ticket holders transparent bags to conform with the NFL’s new security policy on carry bags. “The fans have talked to us,” Scheiner said at a news conference. “They’ve been pretty clear that when they get to the stadium, it takes too long to get into the stadium. So we’re going to fix that.” The Browns’ focus on improved access will start with their exhibition opener on Aug. 8 against St. Louis. Scheiner said other initiatives won’t be “rolled out” until See BROWNS | 8 MLS franchise Columbus Crew acquired by Precourt COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The original ownership group of the Columbus Crew wasn’t looking to sell. Instead, Hunt Sports Group was seeking a local investor to purchase a minority share in the MLS franchise. Once businessman Anthony Precourt began to learn more about the club, though, it was only a matter of time before he could convince Hunt Sports Group to sell the entire franchise. The deal was announced on Tuesday, the day before the league’s annual All-Star game. Precourt Sports Ventures LLC will take over operating rights to the franchise from the company run by Clark Hunt, whose late father Lamar Hunt helped prop up the league nearly 20 years ago. The Crew, which won the MLS Cup in 2008, was one of the charter members of the league. “We have long believed in the ascension of soccer in the American sportsentertainment world,” Precourt said in a statement. “We thank the Hunt family for having the trust in us to become the Crew’s new steward. The Hunt family has done so much for MLS, and the development of the game in Ohio, and for that we thank them.” Hunt, whose family also owns the Kansas City Chiefs, called it a “bittersweet” day for his family and company. But he also made it clear that Hunt Sports Group will remain active in MLS through its ownership of FC Dallas. “Anthony is a bright, passionate, driven leader, and we believe he will be a great fit for Columbus,” Hunt said. “We are delighted to welcome him as a partner in MLS, and I am confident that he will do an outstanding job with the Crew.” During the early days of Major League Soccer, every team was owned by just a few different groups. But over the years, those teams have slowly taken on local ownership — Hunt Sports Group sold the franchise in Kansas City in 2006 — in an attempt to diversify and stabilize the league.

David to get fewer cracks at Goliath NEW YORK (AP) — College football’s Davids will get fewer chances to knock off the Goliaths in the coming years. Part of the fallout of the sweeping changes coming to college sports will be a decrease in so-called guarantee games in football, where a power conference school pays hundreds of thousands of dollars to have a team from a lesser league play at its stadium. The result will be far fewer opportunities for embarrassing blowouts (Oklahoma State 84, Savannah State 0) and startling upsets (Appalachian State 34, Michigan 32). Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said it would be good for college football and that he is “not very sympathetic” to the potential loss of revenue to the schools on the receiving end of the checks. The commissioners of the lower-revenue conferences say losing the pay days won’t kill their leagues, and that giving players from smaller schools a chance to compete on the big stage has value. “Traditionally, we play the Big Ten a lot,” Mid-American Conference Commissioner Jon Steinbrecher said in a phone interview Friday. “We’re in the neighborhood so that makes a lot of sense.” MAC teams will play 13 games against Big Ten teams this season, plus four against the SEC and two each against the Big 12 and Atlantic Coast Conference, and many of them fall into the category of guarantee games. The shift to nine-game conference schedules, along with an increased emphasis on strength of schedule for the coming College Football Playoff, all but guarantee fewer opportunities for the other five conferences (MAC, Sun Belt, Mountain West, American Athletic and Conference USA) in FBS to play the top five. Add in the need for the power conferences to beef up their schedules to create made-for-TV matchups to justify the millions they are getting in media rights deals, plus a possible reconfiguration of Division I, and it leads to speculation that the big five will be playing exclusively among themselves at some point. Scott shot down that idea and Steinbrecher doesn’t sound overly concerned about his teams not getting more than a few shots per season to knock off marquee programs. Steinbrecher said it’s more likely for the big five to trim FCS teams — the old Division I-AA — from their schedules than the other FBS leagues. The Big Ten has said it would like eliminate all FCS games soon. And if schools from the big five are getting tired of cutting those big checks for home games, Steinbrecher has another solution. “We’d gladly give up the guarantee game and start a home-andhome,” he said. Patty Viverito runs the FCS Missouri Valley Conference football as senior associate commissioner. MVC teams such as Northern Iowa and North Dakota State frequently play Big Ten teams. Losing that revenue will be a challenge for her schools, she said. “But at this juncture there seems to be plenty of willing hosts,” she said. “We haven’t had too much difficulty in finding alternate opponents.” She added: “We think that those games have been good for the game of college football. I think I would like to have a more consid- erate approach to the good of the game be part of the conversation.” She noted some of the top FCS programs often have teams comparable or better to the bottom teams in FBS, and have fans that make road trips and buy tickets. Big South Commissioner Kyle Kallander said it’s hard to predict what not having FBS games and the money that comes with them would do to his members. “There are some that rely on the revenue to improve facilities and fund their programs,” he said. “But it’s not like the sky would fall and wouldn’t be able to play anymore.” Viverito wondered whether the big five conferences could stomach the consequences of playing only games against each other. “That’s a zero-sum game where 50 percent of the teams loss,” she said. “None of those teams want to be 6-6. They all want to be 9-3 or 10-2.” Southern Mississippi coach Todd Monken at Conference USA media days said he’d like to see how coaches in the big five would handle playing schedules with only five or six home games in some seasons and nothing but opponents with relatively equal resources. “Just have a nice NFL crossover where you play each other,” Monken told the South Florida Sun Sentinel. “Then when you fire up a nice 7-5, and you’re at a pretty good place and they fire you, they won’t be real excited about it, because you won’t have those games that they’ve been able to win. Plain and simple.” “Some of those teams that get bowl eligible when they go 2-6 in their league and they go 6-6. Well, you’ll be 2-10, or 3-9, and it won’t feel so damn salty.” OVP Sports Briefs RVHS volleyball practice BIDWELL, Ohio — The River Valley volleyball team will begin practice on Monday, August 5 at the high school from 7:30-9 a.m. and 3-6 p.m. Athletes must have a physical to participate.

I think we’ve got a good atmosphere for football games.” Spotty or sometimes no cellphone service has been a problem for the past few seasons, and the Browns believe the installation of a new tower from Verizon and an upgrade of an AT&T tower will have a significant impact. “We think this will make a big difference for people getting on their phone, getting text messages, getting phone calls, surfing the Internet,” he said. “And we’ll keeping looking at this and if we need more technology in the stadium then in the near future we will keep investing. “ The Browns want to create a home-field advantage for a team that has made the playoffs just once since 1999, and reward the league’s “best fans.” Scheiner said the hiring of Kevin Griffin, who previously worked for the Seattle Seahawks and the MLS Seattle Sounders, in a newly created position of vice president of fan experience is further proof of owner Jimmy Haslam’s commitment to improve the Browns. “We know we have the best fans,” Scheiner said. “We want to have the best home-field advantage so we are talking about pre-game introductions, rituals, video and audio.” Scheiner said one of the Browns’ biggest challenges is to make the experience in the stadium as satisfying for fans as if they stayed home and watched on TV. “We have to figure out the proper balance between getting people the information that they want, that they can get at home but also making it about our game, about our team and about our product,” he said. Scheiner said the Cowboys experienced some of the same issues facing the Browns. “I don’t look at them as problems as much as just opportunities, and when we built the new stadium in Dallas, we had all new technology to play with and once again, we had to just revisit what it meant to be a Cowboys fan.” Briefs From Page 6 Wahama golf team meeting MASON, W.Va. — An informational meeting for all candidates for the Wahama High School varsity golf team will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday, August 1, at the Riverside Golf Course picnic shelter area.

Your instincts guide you more often than not. Networking provides you with connections, both professionally and personally. Learning to express yourself in a meaningful way will be important. If you are single, you could meet someone with ease. Choosing the right person will be crucial. If you are attached, the two of you will benefit from a substantial amount of private time together. Look at what does not work in your life, and consider letting it go. Next year, you will enter a new life and luck cycle. GEMINI is fun to go out with. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) ++++ You might be trying to get clarity about an upcoming event or situation. You will have difficulty, no matter what you try to do. You could lose your temper, and you’ll be shocked by what comes out of your mouth. A little caution will go a long way. Tonight: Hang out at home. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ++++ Your upbeat mood could change its focus to a money matter. The best of intentions easily could fall apart and cause a rift among friends. Decide not to allow this scenario to happen. Remain steady, and make a point of being direct in your dealings. Tonight: Treat yourself well. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ++++ You might be running around in an effort to get a lot done. You are able to see a situation differently from many because you can absorb a lot of information. A friend could be very unpredictable. Avoid mixing business with friendship. Tonight: Where the crowds are. CANCER (June 21-July 22) ++++ Complete as much as you can quickly in the morning. The pressure of the day could be intense afterward. In some way, you might not be seeing a situation clearly. Your attempts for clarity appear futile at the moment. Tonight: Make it early. You will need the rest soon enough! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Friends mean a lot, especially in a business setting where you might have to ask them for support.

You even could become irritated by what develops. Stay the course, and you’ll be OK. Tonight: Remain upbeat. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) +++ Be smart and say little, as it will allow someone to present his or her ideas and thoughts. You might want to revisit a mistake made a while ago by this person. Perhaps he or she needs to repeat the same mistake in order to learn from it. Tonight: Allow someone to let off some steam. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) +++ You might want to reconsider someone’s ideas. Don’t say “no” immediately; instead, ask insightful questions. Realize that you won’t be able to push a situation through as quickly as you would like. Frustration might emerge as a result. Tonight: Say “yes” to an exciting offer. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ You might want to answer someone’s questions very diplomatically. If you share exactly what you’re thinking, there could be a volatile exchange. Be careful if you feel irritated when working with machinery; otherwise, you could have an accident. Tonight: A midweek break. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) +++ If you’re feeling confused or if someone is intentionally weaving a haze around you, distance yourself rather than get into an argument that you might regret later. Your sense of humor will help you bypass an otherwise difficult situation. Tonight: Close to home.

(AP) — West Liberty University’s football team can start playing night games this fall thanks to the donation of a new lighting system. The gift from Wheeling native and alumnus Gary West is valued at nearly $500,000. West Liberty President Robin Capehart says it will dramatically improve both the player and fan experience at Russek Field. The stadium seats about 4,000. The lighting project is the second upgrade funded by West. Artificial turf was installed in 2008. West bought Valley Welding Supply and grew it into a business with 84 locations in 10 states. Athletic Director Jim Watson says the team can also now practice in the evenings. That’s better for players’ class schedules. The lights should be ready by Sept. 1. The Hilltoppers will play their first night game on Halloween. Browns WR Josh Gordon slowed by sore knee CLEVELAND (AP) — Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon was held out for part of practice on Monday because of patella tendinitis in his knee. Gordon, Cleveland’s top deep threat, did not take part in the 11on-11 scrimmage after he felt some soreness while doing individual drills. Coach Rob Chudzinski said afterward that he’s not concerned about the injury. He does not yet know if the second-year wideout will undergo further tests. “He started out, tried to push through it, but we sat him down for the rest of practice,” Chudzinski said. “I’m not concerned about it, shouldn’t be too big of a deal.” Chudzinski said there wasn’t a specific incident in practice that caused Gordon to feel pain. “No, it had been bothering him,” Chudzinski said. Chudzinski was asked if Gordon will need an MRI. “We will see about that,” he said. “I am not concerned about it. It doesn’t look to be too serious, but I will let you know tomorrow on that. Obviously, as far as reps, we want our guys to get as many reps as possible, especially our young guys.” Gordon is suspended for the first two games this season for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy. He maintains he failed the drug test because there was codeine — a drug banned by the league — in the cough syrup he was prescribed for strep throat. Gordon was dropped from Baylor’s team for marijuana use. The Browns selected Gordon in the supplemental draft last July. He made 13 starts as a rookie and finished with 50 receptions for 805 yards and five touchdowns. Cleveland does not have practice on Tuesday. With Pitta out, Ravens turn to Dickson, Shiancoe OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — The Baltimore Ravens can’t afford to sulk over the loss of Dennis Pitta. Baltimore has a Super Bowl championship to defend, and it’s up to Ed Dickson and newcomer Visanthe Shiancoe to help the team move forward without its talented tight end. Pitta fractured and dislocated his hip during practice Saturday and is lost for the season. That’s a significant blow, because he was a key contributor to Baltimore’s run to a second NFL championship. Wide receiver Torrey Smith says while Pitta is a tough loss, “someone is going to have to step it up.” Stewart fine after sprint car accident in Canada CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Tony Stewart was not injured in a scary accident in Canada in which his sprint car rolled five times. A day after Monday’s wreck, Stewart was still scheduled for the World of Outlaws race Tuesday night at Ohsweken Speedway in Ontario. He’s the defending race winner. But the three-time NASCAR champion will sit out a pair of races this weekend as his team takes its cars to Indiana for repairs. Stewart finished fourth Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and said he’d be in a race car every day this week. Although he declined to reveal his entire schedule, he said he was testing Wednesday, racing Thursday and would be at Pocono Raceway this weekend. Spokesman Mike Arning says races Friday and Saturday night have been scrapped only for car repairs. Duchardt promoted to No. 3 at Hendrick Motorsports CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Longtime Hendrick Motorsports executive Doug Duchardt has been promoted to the newly created position of executive vice president and general manager. Duchardt will report to team owner Rick Hendrick and company President Marshall Carlson. The expanded role will put Duchardt in charge of all racing operations for Hendrick Motorsports and make him the primary liaison between the organization and NASCAR’s competition group. Duchardt joined Hendrick Motorsports in 2005 as vice president of development. In that position, he directed all engine, vehicle engineering, chassis and body operations. He also oversaw the company’s work on the last two generations of Sprint Cup Series race cars, including Hendrick Motorsports’ role as the lead development team for General Motors’ new Chevrolet SS. His new responsibilities will include oversight of all competition-related personnel and departments, including teams; engines; race car construction (chassis and bodies); research and development; human performance (pit crews); and engineering. Duchardt holds a master’s degree in engineering from Purdue. He joined General Motors Racing in 1996 and was named director of North American motor sports initiatives, overseeing programs in NASCAR, Grand-Am, American Le Mans, NHRA, IndyCar and other series in 2003. Judge: 3 Penn State ex-officials to stand trial 1998, Beemer said. The key testimony centered on a series of emails among the three defendants that discussed the 1998 and 2001 cases and the testimony of Mike McQueary, a former team assistant and quarterback who said he had immediately told Schultz, Curley and the late longtime football coach Joe Paterno that he had seen Sandusky molesting a boy in the shower in 2001. Sandusky, a defensive coordinator under Pater- no until his retirement in 1999, was convicted last year of 45 counts of child sexual abuse. He maintains his innocence and is appealing a 30- to 60-year state prison term. Anthony Lubrano, a Penn State trustee who watched the two days of testimony, said he had not expected Wenner to throw out the case, given the low level of evidence necessary to send the case to trial. However, he said, “if you get an unbiased jury (at a trial), it’ll be hard to get those charges to stick.” Spanier testified to a grand jury that he was unaware of the 1998 investigation while Curley and Schultz testified that McQueary reported only that Sandusky and the boy were engaged in naked, inappropriate horseplay that made him uncomfortable. Once the defendants became aware of an investigation into Sandusky in 2010 or 2011, they did nothing to stop it, obstruct it or hide evidence, their lawyers said. “What was reported was not a report of any activity that was sexual in nature,” Spanier told the grand jury in testimony read aloud in court Tuesday. “I know better than to jump to conclusions about things like that.” The three were charged with perjury, obstruction, endangering the welfare of children, failure to properly report suspected abuse and conspiracy. Those charges include allegations of hiding evidence from investigators and lying to the grand jury.

Along with capturing its first MLS Cup five years ago, it also won the U.S. Open Cup in 2002 and the Supporters’ Shield for the league’s best regular- season record on three occasions. The club was also groundbreaking in that it opened the first stadium built specifically for an MLS team in 1999. The facility has been used by the U.S. national team for several international competitions, and has served as a blueprint for other soccerspecific stadiums across the league. Garber said that Precourt, whose Precourt Capital Management provides investment management services and private equity investing in the energy sector, began to express interest in expanding into the sports and entertainment realm more than a year ago. Precourt was drawn to MLS, and began discussions with Hunt on purchasing part of the Columbus franchise. Over time, Garber said, Precourt became more enamored of the league.

Wenner called it “a tragic day for Penn State University.” The men engaged in a “conspiracy of silence,” the lead state prosecutor, Bruce Beemer, said during his closing argument.

Baugh was removed from all team activities and will also sit out the first game of the season after being arrested for underage possession of alcohol and possessing a fake ID. Gardner, from Indianapolis was sent home and will not be a part of the 2013 team after he was charged by Columbus police with obstruction of official business. Meyer has faced withering criticism in recent months for not meting out stiff discipline or controlling his players during his previous tenure as coach at Florida.
