That levy, which would generate approximately $52,907 a year, has been rejected twice by village voters once in November, 1996, and again in a special election in May. A proposed renewal of a oqc-mill levy for fire protection would generate $12,097, according to a certificate of estimated revenue provided by County Auditor Mary ByerHill. Councilman Ferman Moore, president of the finance committee, emphasized the need for council to promote the levy's passage.

The Daily Sen~el AP InterView: ·M ilitary commander sees increased al-Qaida threat in us. BY LOUTA C. BALDOR ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER I ' ' '' . I i ·I '' WASHINGTON - A top U.S. military commander said Tuesday he believes there are al-Qaida cells in the United States - or people working to create them and the military needs to triple its response teams to counter a growing threat of attack. " Air Force Gen. Victor "Gene" Renuart, who heads U.S. Northern Command, said that as the terrorism threat within the nation's boundaries has increased officials have strengthened intelligence sharing, particularly in an effort to shore up security at ports. "I believe there are cells in the· United States, or at least people who aspire to create cells in the United States," Renuart said in an interview with The Associated Press. "To assume that there are not those cells is naive and so we have to take that threat seriously." As for attacks, he added: "Am I concerned thal this will happen this summer? I have to be concerned that it could happen any day." Other U.S. officials said last week they did not know of al-Qaida cells in the United States. Renuart, who took over at U.S. Northern Command just four months ago, said the military has one brigade-size unit available to respond to nuclear, chemical and biological incidents at home. That number, he said, needs to grow to three. A brigade is about 3,500 troops. Renuan's comments came in the wake of a national intelligence report released last week, which concluded that al·Qaida is using its growing strength in the Middle East to plot attacks on U.S. soil. The general is in Washington this week to attend meetings with Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Peter Page.A2 · AP photo U.S. Air Force Gen.

Officials identified si~nificant communications fculures during the Sept. ll, 2001, terrorist attacks and found that there were continuing problems during the hurricanes that devastated the Gitlf Coast in August 2005. Renuart said he has been working to improve the interaction between his office and the other intelligence agencies to ensure that information on terror threats is shared. That way, he said, the military will better be able to anticipate how terrorists might try to take advantage of any gaps or weaknesses in the system. At the same time, he said it will be at least two years before he is able to pull toge\her the military units he needs to better respond to a chemical, biological ot nuclear disaster in the U.S. The units, he said, could include active duty, reserves or National Guard troops. And while portions of the brigades will be located in different states, they will be expected to train together and to be able to respond quickly to a disaster.

Wednesday, July 25, 2007 DEA agents rurested man accused of methamphetamine trafficking_in Mexico BY lOAN GRIU.O ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER MEXICO CITY - · U.S. federal agents have arrested a Mexico City businessman wanted in connection with one of the · W,estem Hemisphere's largest trafficking rings for the main chemical ingredient in methllmphet- amine. Zhenli Ye Gon was arrested in a Mary land restaurant Monday evening, four months after police discov'ered $207 million at his Mexico City mansion in what U.S. officials have called the world's biggest seizure of drug cash. Mexican Attorney General Eduardo Medina Mora called the arrest "magnificent news" and said Mexican officials had 60 days to file their legal arguments for Ye Gon's extradition. The Chinese-Mexican fugitive is wanted on organized crime, drug trafficking and weapons charges. DEA spokesman Garrison Courtney said Ye Gon w3S arrested on drug smuggling and money laundering charges, adding that be was tracked down by a~ents and did not tum himself m. Medina Mora said the cash seized at Ye Gon 's home was ·connected to one of the hemisphere's largest networks for traffi kin d hedri c g pseu oep ne, the main ingredient in methampbetamines. He said the ring had been operating since 2004, illeg<illy importing the substance and sellin~ it to a drug cartel that mixed tt into · the crystal fonn and imported into the United States. Ye Gon has said the chemicals imported by his company, Unimed Pharm Chern de Mexico SA, were legitimate and intended for use in ~ scription drugs to be made at a factory he was building in Toluca, just west of the Mexican capital. Ye Gon also claimed that SISO million of the money belonged to Mexico's ruling party, and that he was forceil to store it for patty officials in his mansion under threat of. death during the 2006 presidential race, which Felipe Calderon narrowly won. Calderon has called the accusations "pure fiction." Ye Goo's U.S.-based lawyer, Ning Ye, denounced the "lousy evidence made up by Mexican govenunent" and said Ye Gon would apply for political asylum in the United States. Ye said DEA agents swarmed a restaurant in Silver Sprin~. Md., where Ye Gon was dtnin~ with another member of his le~ team.

The · discrepancy could not inu:nedil!tely be explained. Ye said·he was surprised by the arrest because he said he had reached a verbal agree- · moot lilst week with a DEA agent in Mexico that called for Ye-Gon to surrender to U.S. marshals on Thursday. In return. Ye Gon was to be tried in the · United States, not Mexico, Ye said. "Only the United States can P.£Qvide the most comprehensive procedural safeguards concerning what is happening on the Mexican side,"Ye said. Ye said he will file the first motions in the legal battle at a U.S. district court in Washington early TUesday. Medina Mora said Ye Gon's girlfriend Michelle Wong had been detained in Las Vegas and . may also face criminal charges. · . Rogelio de Ia Garza, Ye Gon's laWyer in Mexico, said he feared that U.S. authorities may simply deport him to avoid a drawn out battle in a U.S. court. De Ia Girza said he will fight for Ye Gon's immediate freedom if he arrives in Mexico, arguing the money was earned legally and that Ye Gon .was not found with any narcotics.

Al-Maliki opened Tuesday's meeting, issuing an impassioned appeal for help from the two nations to stabilize Iraq and warning that militants from al-Qaida and other terror groups in Iraq were now fleeing and finding refuge elsewhere. "We are hoping that you support stability in Iraq, an Iraq that doesn't interfere in the affairs of others nor wants anyone to meddle in its own affairs," he said, according to excerpts of alMaliki's remarks released by his office. "It's Iraq's right to call on everyone to stand beside it to counter the scourge of terror and extremism," he said. "The world ... must stand together and face this dangerous phenomenon and its evils, which have gone beyond the borders of Iraq after terror and al-Qaida groups received strong blown and are now running away from the fight and moving to other nations." The Hillah bomber struck at 9 a.m.. according to provincial police, who said the driver of the tow truck detonated his payload in the middle of the Bab alMashhad district.

Auditor: Dayton failed to accurately document $32 million DAYTON (AP) - The city was unable to produce accurate documents in a timely manner to show how more than $32 million in federal grant money was spent 'in 2005, state Auditor Mary Taylor said Tue~day. "While the city was not found to have misspent or ·illegally spent public funds, carelessness in the administration of financial accounting opens the city up to the potential for fraud or misspending of public funds," said Steve Faulkner, spokesman for the auditor's office. Taylor said the city must implement policies and procedures to ensure that every tax dollar is spent legally and appropriately. City Manager Rashad Young said the federal funds were spent appropriately. He disagreed with the audit's characterization and tone and said safeguards are in place to ensure that money is spent appropriately. The audit said the city received $32,306,795 in federa! grant money and that the city's accounting qepartment improperly relied on ·individual department head~ to manually provide infermation documenting how the moner was spent. In addnion, the city did not have procedures in place to show that the money the city received matched what was spent in each depart- ment, the audit said. As a result, there were·differences in account balances when compared to the city's financial accounting system. Auditors said there was no assurance that the money city officials said was spent on federal programs was accurate. Repeated attempts to obtain the correct information caused a tO-month delay in the release of the final audit report. The audit also showed that several deposits lacked proper documentation that could prove the funds were placed in the proper account; there was a failure to transfer municipal court funds to the city on a monthly ba~is, causing an overstatement of more than $37,000 in the court's account; and residents were improperly chafged in storm-water bills because water, sewer, storm water and other accounts were not separated. . i/A"', ,_'!\N Clf (~ ct' "'~ "" .

A proposed increase in the national cigarette tax, the potential for future lawsuits against the tobacco companies and the unpredictable future of bond markets worry officials about the sale. These outside factors that could affect how much the tobacco companies pay make it crucial that Ohio act soon, state budget Director Pari Sabety and state Treasurer Richard Cordray said. The money that the state gets from the sale will go toward school construction and propeny tax breaks for the elderly and disabled. The Buckeye Tobacco Settlement Financing Authority held its third meeting on Tuesday, less than two months after the Legislature authorized Gov. Ted Strickland's plan to make the deal. The authority plans to begin selling the promise of future payments by late October, said Sabety, the authority's secretary. As if to illustrate its urgency, the board at Tuesday's meeting took a 15-minute break while staff members negotiated a lower bid for the position of financial adviser with the winning firm. Philadelphiabased Public Financial Management. The company agreed to lower its price from $370,000 to $160,000, matching the lowest bid. Several factors make the quick sale of the bonds necessary, Sabety and Cordray said. The U.S. Senate Finance Committee last week approved a 61-cent-perpack increase in the federal cigarette tax to help pay for health insurance for lowincome children. Its future is uncertain, though, as backers aren't sure it could survive a filibuster in the full Senate or of its fate in the House. President· Bush opposes it in its current form. Studies show that for every I0 percent increase in the price of cigarettes, consumption goes down about 4 percent. "The kinds of risks of tax increases, and significantly decreased consumption, is one reason it makes sense for the state to move away from the risk we're carrying now," Sabety said. Cordray worries about the future of the bond market - imponant because the investors who buy the payments will resen them. "Five years from now, 10 ye<U's from now, smoking bans are kicking in, taxes may change, maybe coun decisions . If the tobacco companies are not profitable, Ohio would be out its money. But if we cash in now, we will have our money and we will shed the risk," Cordray said. Collecting the settlement in 40 years of installments would have netted the state an estimated $18 billion. But a lump sum payout will allow the state to sell the right to its future senlement payments to investors in return for an immediate influx of ca~h. Should the federal tax increase and more smokers quit, Ohio stands to lose some $58 million a year in state cigarette taxes, the second greatest loss in the country behind California, accordmll to Federal Funds Information for States, a nonprofit research group. The Ohio sale would be the largest of the 19 states that have taken the lump sum. California, New York and Michigan are among those that have cashed in all or part of their settlements. V'Jlage 'will never be the same' after deadly ambrdance crash -. I ' { ANTWERP (AP) - The deaths of three volunteer paramedics, killed when their ambulance collided with a truck, have shaken this small fanning community. It seems everyone knew them. "It sure has brought our village to its knees," said Police Chief George Clemens. "We'll move on, but it will never be the same." The ambulance was headed to a hospital Friday night when it was broadsided at a rural intersection next to a cornfield. Both vehicles caught fire, killing the three . medical techrticians and two patients. Investigators say \he ambulance driver slowed down at a stop sign but didn't . see the truck, which had the right of way. A funeral for the three paramedics will be F?,day at the village's high school gymnasium, the only place in town big enough to accommodate the large crowd that is expected. About a dozen volunteer paramedics who make runs for the northwest Ohio villa~e and its I,700 residents will remain off duty for awhile. "They think they're ready, but once they get to a scene and are on their way to the hospital, I don't think they're going· to" li\i re11dy," Mayor Margaret Womack said "It's not like a hiP, city. We t.crrow'tlii!se people, ' she said: · For now, paramedics from two nearby villages will take care of the medical runs. The accident happened about I0 miles from the Ohio-Indiana state line in Paulding County, the fifth. smallest in the state with about 20,000 people. Randy Shaffer, director of county's emergency management agency, said the accident has touched everyone who works in public service. "We know it could happen at any time," he said. "We just don't think it's going to happen to us." Killed were the ambulance driver Sammy Smith, 64, and paramedics Heidi McDougall, 31, and Kelly Ra¥er, 25. The two patients instde the ambulance were identified as Robert Wells, 64, and Armelda Wells, 60, a married couple from Hicksville.

"He was the ftrst one there and the last to go home," said Antwerp Fire Chief Ray Friend. "That was the way he was. "They were doing what they loved - all of them," Friend said.

Al exandre Vinokourov tested positive for a banned blood transfusion after winning last weekend's time trial, prompting his Astana team to pull out and sending police on a raid of the team hotel. Tour director Christian Prudhomme said that although the race would go on, the latest drug case showed cycling 's testing system doesn 't work. ~'It 's an absolute failure of the system," he said. " It is a system which does not defend the biggest race in the world. This is a system which can't last." Even before Tuesday's bombshell , Tour leader Michael Rasmussen was baltling doping suspicions because he skipped drug controls before the Tour start. He still seems likely to claim victory in Paris on Sunday. All this on top of the lingering scandal involving 2006 champion Floyd Landis, who was unable to defend his crown because he failed a drug test during last year's Tour. "It's almost impossible to be at the front of the pack these days without dopmg," said Dick Pound, president of the World Antt-Doping Agency and a frequent critic of the way cycling is managed. Blond-haired, blue-eyed Vinokourov, who placed third in the 2003 Tour, is a fan favorite, admired for his grit, determination and string of stage wins at this and previous Tours. He had been considered a pre-race favorite to win, but crashed in the first week of the three-week race. With stitches in both knees, he struggled for a few days but recovered to win stages Saturday and Monday - a turnaround that now seems too good to be true.

The backup B-sample test results were expected by the end of the week . "Alexandre denies havin~ manipulated his blood, ' Biver said, adding that the rider believed his crash may have resulted in "blood anomalies in his body." Pat McQuaid, president of cycling's world governing body, the UCI, said he couldn't comment as long as the backup B-sarnple result wasn't confmned. "We have · a process in place, and we have to see this process through," he told The Associated Press in a telephpne interview. Many of cycling's recent stars have been tainted by drug allegations. Jan Ullrich, the 1997 winnc;:r, retired after he was linked to a doping ring in Spain. Italian Ivan Basso, once seen as the next big thing afu:r Lance Armstrong, is serving a doping ban. And Armstrong's seven consecutive wins are widely viewed by many in France with susptcion. The Astana team was disqualified from the Tour on the eve of last year's race after five of its riders were implicated in a vast Spanish doping probe known as Operation Puerto. The French sports daily L' EQuipe, which first rev<?rted Vinokourov's posttive test on its Web site, said the analysis -was conducted by the Chate11ay-Malabry lab on the outskirts of Paris.

Vinokourov, who also won Saturday's time trial, won stage 15 in 5 hours, 34 minutes, 28 seconds. Rasmussen, meanwhile, has deflected doping suspicions surrounding. him as effortlessly as he conquers · hills, and he is equally vigilant about what to expect from Contador. "He probably has the best acceleration of anybody on the climbs," Rasmussen said Monday after withstanding three attacks from Contador on the ftnal climb up the Col de Peyresourde. Contador got to five wheel lengths ahead, but Rasmussen countered with assurance, if not ease. Mackanin gave Belisle an unexpectedir early exit, removing htm after he'd faced seven batters in the pivotal inning. Fielder tripled off the leftfield wall - Dunn jumped and reached for the ball but missed it - to drive in the first run. Fielder scored on Geoff Jenkins' double, and Gallardo came · to bat with two outs. The rookie slapped a single up the.middle for another run, bringing Mackanin out of the dugout to remove Belisle after only 53 pitches. Notes: It was Fielder's first triple of the season and the second of his career.... Dunn extended his hitting streak to a season-high 10 games . ... The Reds lead the majors with 139 homers.

Stern believes betting an isolated case related to dogfighting is acceptable. We . think ifs desptcable, frankly." As ·for wny he blocked an immediate suspension against Vick, Goodell said the league needed more time to study an indicttnent that is just a week old. "We're looking at this from the long term," he said. "We understand how our fans are reacting to this. It is very emotional for all of us. But we have to remember that we are still at a state where these are charges. These are allegations." Under the leagtle's collective bargaining agreement, a team can impose.a four-game suspension fot detrimental conduct. The league's new cqnduct · policy allows Goodell to hand down a stiffer penalty. "Prior to this, we were pursuing . the maximum dtscipline, which is a four-game suspension," Blank said. "We had gone so far as to draft the letter. But the commissioner asked us not to take action until they completed their review." Clearly, the Falcons did not want to begin training camp with a quarterback who was under federal indictment, even though he led them to the NFC championship game during the 2004 season and last year became the ftrst quarterback in league history to rush for I ,000 yards. "There is· certainly a reasonable potential that he's going to miss part - a significant part - of the regular season," Blank said. In April, investigators raiding a home owned by Vick in rural Virginia allegedly found evidence of dogfighting, include dozens of pit bulls, bloodstained carpeting, treadmills rigged up for training, veterinary supplies and "breaking sticks" used to pry a dog's jaw apart. At first, Vick denied any connection to the house, saying he never lived there and rarely visited. He blamed friends .and family members for taking advantage of his generosity, an el(planation that he apparently gave Goodell when the two held an impromptu meeting in New York during the draft. : Since then, Vick ha$ denied any comment on th~ case. ; Blank said he is deeply dts• turbed by the allegations, making a point to say that he counted Vick's name more than 50 times in W: 18-pagtl indictment. Vick and three associates are accused of killing dogs if they weren't strong enough to fight', will! gruesome methods tha~ included hanging, drowning; shooting and electrocution. "There was no indication: no signs, no whispers that Michael could be involved in any of this kind of behavior," McK<1y said. ~ ln 2004, the FSlcons signed Vick to the richest contract ill NFL history at the time, a I 0~ year extension worth approx; tmately $130 million. At th~ time, Blank said the dem. would allow Vick to play his entire career in Atlanta. Now; there's a distinct pos;: sibility that Vick's careet with the Falcons is over, eve!). though the team would take 11 debilitating salary cap hi~ over the next two years if he's released. Vick's salary this season is $6 million. · ~ PETA - People for the. Ethical Treatment of Animals. - kept up its pressure on the Falcons, sendmg three people to protest outside th~ headquarters of Blank's foundation, where the news conference was held. One of them carried a sign, "Sack Vick." . Joey Harrington goes intq camp as Atlanta's starting quarterback. His career. record as a starter (23-43) hardly makes him a promising alternative, espectally for a team that hired Petrino specifically because it felt he could bring out Vick 's full potential. The Falcons sure could use Matt Schaub, who was Vick 's backup · for three years. He was dealt to the Houston Texans just before evidence of dogfighting emerged when police raided Vick's house in April. , ''This is a big obstacle, there's ·no question about that," Petrino said. Selig will try to attend Bonds record-setter NEW YORK (AP) Baseball commissioner Bud Selig will attempt to attend the game when Barry Bonds breaks Hank Aaron's career home run record, saying the San Francisco Giants star was "innocent until proven guilty." "Throughout this season, I have watched Barry Bonds' pursuit of the home run record.
