A call to support seniors facing ‘food insecurity’
September
is Hunger
Action Month
Charlene Hoeflich

choeflich@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — September is Hunger Action
Month and an emphasis this year is on senior
citizens who may have to
choose between buying
food and buying medicine.

According to a recent report from the Area Agency
on Aging 8 — of which
Meigs County is a part —
there are hundreds of older adults in Southeastern
Ohio who are now experiencing what is called “food
insecurity.”
What that means is they
don’t know for sure where
their next meal will come
from.
This month communities are being asked to take
action to help solve the

hunger problem among elderly residents.
The Meigs County
Council on Aging, along
with the Meigs Cooperative Parish, church and
other groups are doing a
good job of reaching out
to many of those seniors.
The Senior Center with its
Meals on Wheels Program
today delivers nearly a
hundred meals each week
day to home-bound elderly
residents around the county who fall into the food

insecure category.
Beth Shaver, executive director, reports that
funding under the Older
Americans Act, has been
increased slightly for next
year and the expectation
is that a few more slots for
home delivered meals will
become available. R i g h t
now, Shaver says all who
qualify and have applied
are being delivered meals,
thanks to fund raisers and
contributions from community organizations.

Meanwhile, seniors who
are out and about can enjoy congregate meals at the
Senior Center where they
can eat for a small donation or nothing at all. It is
requested that individuals
call the center around 9
a.m. if they plan to come to
eat so that the kitchen staff
can better judge how much
food to prepare. However,
calling in advance is not
necessary, Shaver said.
The Meigs Cooperative Parish has a general

food distribution program
for the elderly and other
residents, to which businesses and organizations
contribute through food
collection and fund raising
programs. Several community churches offer free
meals once or twice a week
to anyone who comes but
still there are many elderly
people who are unable,
or too proud, to seek out
sources for food.

RACINE — While some work
remains to be donestudents started classes on Wednesday morning
at the new Southern High School.
Students grades kindergarten to twelfth grade entered the
building through a new set of
doors, before separating with the
high school students going one
way and the elementary students
another.
“I was very pleased with the co-

operation of all the parents and
students,” said Superintendent
Tony Deem following morning
arrivals.
Deem along with other members of the Southern Local Staff
and the Ohio State Highway Patrol were in front of the school to
assist parents and students with
traffic control and finding their
way to the proper area of the
school.
“The traffic pattern was a little
challenging this morning,” added
Deem.

Work still remaining includes
the high school gymnasium and
the metal roof.
“I ask that we remain patient as
adjustments are being made and
construction continues. I would
like to thank Kinsale for their
efforts to get us in the building
for the start of school and also
thank the staff of Southern Local
for going above and beyond to do
what is best for students. It was
about as smooth of a start that
one could hope for considering
the situation.”

RIO GRANDE — The University of Rio Grande/Rio
Grande Community College opened the fall semester with
its highest enrollment since 2007 with 2,401 students.
The academic year officially opened Monday and as of
Thursday, Rio Grande’s enrollment was up more than 2
percent from last fall, with full-time equivalency also up
more than 2 percent.
“The return of students each fall injects a revitalizing
energy throughout campus,” Rio Grande President Dr.
Barbara Gellman-Danley said. “The value of a degree in
relation to career earnings is well documented, but the
personal growth along the journey is so much more. Monday marked the start of that journey for so many wonderful individuals.”
Rio Grande offers more than 70 academic programs,
including certificate programs, associate’s, bachelor’s and
master’s degrees. Custom majors and minors also are
available for those students whose needs differ from traditional program offerings.
Financial aid is available in the form of scholarships,
grants, loans and work-study. Eligibility for financial aid
is determined by the federal government through information provided on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form.
Rio Grande is an advocate for Prior Learning Assessment, which allows students to earn college credit for life
experience as a more direct route to degree completion.
“Prior learning recognizes life experience through the
development of measurable portfolios, which document

Report: Impaired driving even more deadly on rural roads
Staff Report

GDTnews@civitasmedia.com

OHIO VALLEY — A
recent safety analysis released by the Ohio Department of Transportation
(ODOT) District 10 shows
impaired drivers on rural
two-lane roads are almost
twice as likely to be involved in a severe or fatal
crash than those on twolane urban roads.
To help promote the
national Drive Sober or
Get Pulled Over campaign, ODOT District 10
and Ohio State Highway
Patrol (OSHP) GalliaMeigs Post joined forces
to remind motorists of
the increased dangers of
impaired driving — an effort visibly enforced along
area highways over the Labor Day weekend.

“The numbers are clear,
impaired driving on rural roads is more dangerous,” said ODOT District
10 Deputy Director Steve
Williams.
From 2006-2012, 44 percent of all alcohol-related
deaths or injuries on Ohio
highways occurred on rural two-lane roads as compared to only 25 percent
occurring on urban twolane roads. In District 10,
89 percent, or more than
1,600 miles, are rural twolane highways, making it a
high-risk area.
In fact, in five of the nine
counties in District 10
(Athens, Meigs, Monroe,
Morgan and Vinton) nearly one-third of all severe
injuries or fatalities were
alcohol-related.
Compared to two-lane

urban roads, rural twolane roads have higher
speeds and narrow lanes
and shoulders that provide less room for recovery when a vehicle leaves
the travel lane or road, according to a release from
ODOT District 10.
According to Lt. Max
Norris of the OSHP Gallia-Meigs Post, officers
worked more than 130 extra enforcement hours this
holiday weekend to help
keep Ohio’s roads safe.
“Even with extra enforcement hours, law
enforcement can’t do it
alone,” said Norris. Motorists care encouraged to
contact the Patrol at #677
if they encounter a suspected impaired driver.
Norris further reported
on Wednesday that the

Gallia-Meigs Post handled
nine crashes over this Labor Day weekend, with one
of those crashes involving
injuries. This number
is down from 2012, according to Norris, when
area troopers handled 11
crashes with three involving injuries.
Further, in 2013, the
OSHP initiated 918 incidents, with 54 percent of
those being enforcement
contacts.

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — State
prosecutors said Wednesday they are
appealing as “illegal” a 30-day sentence handed down by a Montana
judge to a former teacher for raping
a student who later killed herself.
The announcement came after
District Judge G. Todd Baugh received widespread condemnation
for the sentence and his comments
that the victim was “older than her
chronological age.”
Defendant Stacey Rambold, 54,
last week received 15 years in prison
with all but a month suspended for
his months-long relationship with a
Billings Senior High School student
in 2007. Victim Cherice Moralez
killed herself before the case went to
trial.
Attorneys for the state and Yellowstone County say a minimum of two
years in prison for Rambold is mandated under state law.
“We believe that the sentence
Judge Baugh imposed on Stacey
Rambold is illegal,” Attorney General Tim Fox said in a statement.
“Using the means provided by state
law, we are appealing his sentence
and working diligently to ensure that
justice is served.”
Moralez’s mother, Auliea Hanlon,
said through her attorney that she
welcomed the attorney general’s involvement.
“Mrs. Hanlon was horribly disappointed with the 30-day sentence
and was, frankly, quite shocked,”
said the attorney, Shane Colton.
“She’s pleased that the county attorney’s office and attorney general’s
office understands that the most significant date to be considered in this
sentencing is Cherice’s birthday. She
was 14.”
Rambold’s attorney, Jay Lansing,
did not respond to calls for comment.
Rambold last week began serving
his monthlong term at the state prison in Deer Lodge.
It wasn’t immediately clear if prosecutors would seek to keep him in
custody pending the appeal, which
attorneys said could take between

“I wish the judge had been thoughtful enough to
get it right the first time.”
— Eran Thompson
Of the Billings group Not in Our Town
six and 18 months to work its way
through the state Supreme Court.
Montana Attorney General spokesman John Barnes said Baugh will be
asked to cancel a Friday resentencing
hearing in the case pending a decision on the appeal.
In setting the resentencing, Baugh
on Tuesday agreed with the state’s
determination that his sentence conflicted with Montana law. “In the
Court’s opinion, imposing a sentence
which suspends more than the mandatory minimum would be an illegal
sentence,” he wrote.
But that did little to sway the
judge’s critics, including hundreds
of protesters who rallied outside the
Yellowstone County Courthouse last
week to call for his resignation.
“I wish the judge had been thoughtful enough to get it right the first
time,” said Eran Thompson with
Not in Our Town, a Billings group
that promotes diversity and works
against hate crimes.
The judge has since apologized for
his comments about Moralez’s age
and for asserting that she had some
control over her relationship with
Rambold. Those who have called for
him to resign said an apology is not
enough.
Whether Baugh’s comments about
Moralez will become an issue during
the appeal is not yet known.
“It would not be appropriate for
us to preliminarily decide what we
would or wouldn’t do with that aspect of the case,” Deputy Attorney
General Mark Mattioli said. “At a
minimum, the statement of facts in
the brief would honestly convey what
transpired in the case.”
Baugh, 71, was first elected to the
bench in 1984 and has been re-elect-

ed every six years since without an
opponent. He’s up for re-election in
2014.
Baugh said in response to the criticism that followed his remarks that
Rambold’s sentence was based on
the defendant’s violation of an earlier deal he made with prosecutors,
rather than the original crime. Baugh
also said his remarks about Moralez
were “irrelevant” and did not factor
into his sentence.
Moralez’s 2010 suicide left prosecutors without their main witness
and led them to strike a deal with
Rambold that allowed him to avoid
prison until he violated the terms of
his court-ordered release.
Those violations included unsupervised visits with the children
of family members and a sexual
relationship with an adult woman
that he didn’t report to a counselor.
They landed Rambold back in court,
where he was convicted this summer
on one count of sexual intercourse
without consent.
Prosecutors, who sought 20 years
in prison with 10 years suspended
for Rambold, have described his actions with Moralez as the “ultimate
violation” of her trust in him as a
teacher.
Court documents show Rambold
and Moralez had three sexual encounters — once at school, once in
his car and once at his home. The
relationship was still going on when
authorities were notified in 2008
after Moralez confided in her youth
counselor, the court documents
state.
“Law enforcement intervention
ended the relationship, not the defendant,” prosecutors said in an Aug.
23 sentencing memorandum.

60434982

NEW YORK (AP) — It probably won’t
become as popular as “Grand Theft Auto,”
but a specialized video game may help older people boost mental skills like handling
multiple tasks at once.
In a preliminary study, healthy volunteers ages 60 to 85 showed gains in their
ability to multitask, to stay focused on a
boring activity and to keep information in
mind — the kind of memory you use to
remember a phone number long enough
to write it down.
All those powers normally decline with
age, Dr. Adam Gazzaley of the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues noted in a study released Wednesday by the journal Nature.
The study was small, with only 16 volunteers training on the specially designed
game. Gazzaley and other brain experts
said bigger studies were needed to assess
whether the game could actually help people function in their everyday lives. He’s
co-founder of a company that aims to develop a product from the research.
Specialized video games might one day
be able to boost mental abilities not only
for healthy adults of middle age or older,
but also children with attention deficit disorder, people with post-traumatic stress
disorder or brain injury and older adults
with depression or dementia, he said in an
interview.
The work is the latest indication that
people can help preserve their brainpower
as they age through mental activity. There
are “brain training” games on the market
and books devoted to the topic. Gazzaley
stressed that claims should be backed up
by evidence, and also that his results don’t
mean any commercial video game can
help mental performance. His game was
designed to exercise specific abilities, he
said.
The game, called NeuroRacer, involves
doing two things simultaneously. A player
uses a joystick to guide a car along a hilly,
twisting road, steering it and controlling

its speed. At the same time, a series of
signs — actually colored shapes — appears on the screen. The player is supposed to push a button only when a particular kind of sign appears. Players were
scored on how quickly and accurately they
reacted to the right signs.
The game progresses to harder levels as
a player improves, to keep it challenging.
“You really had to focus,” said one study
participant, Ann Linsley, 65, of Berkeley,
Calif. “I went through 22 levels. By the
end, we were really cooking along.”
In a separate experiment with 174 volunteers between the ages of 20 and 79, the
researchers found that as people age, driving the car interferes more and more with
performance on reacting to the signs.
But for 14 of the 16 participants who
played the game at home for a total of 12
hours over a month, the training decreased
the amount of interference. In fact, on this
measure they did better than a group of
20-year-olds who played the game for the
first time.
The improvements were still apparent
six months after the training stopped.
Researchers also found changes in brain
wave activity that correlated with how
well the improvement persisted at six
months, as well as performance on a test
of sustained attention for a boring task.
Brain experts unconnected with the
study said previous research has shown
that older people can improve on mental skills such as multitasking if they are
trained. But the training in past multitasking studies was “boring as all get-go,” said
Elizabeth Zelinski, a professor of gerontology and psychology at the University
of Southern California. Presenting an appealing game like NeuroRacer instead
could help people stick with it, she said.
Linsley certainly enjoyed the game.
“I looked forward to doing it,” she said.
When she had to give the laptop with the
game back to the researchers, “I kind of
missed it.”

Free assistance Police seek additional suspect in beating death
for taxpayers
with IRS issues
POMEROY — The Low
Income Taxpayer Clinic
(LITC) at the Community
Action Committee (CAC)
of Pike County in Piketon
is offering free representation before the IRS and
U.S. Tax Court to taxpayers who have IRS controversies including audits,
collections, issues and appeals to residents of eight
counties including Meigs
and Gallia.
The clinic serves mostly
taxpayers who fall below
250 percent of the poverty
guidelines. For 2013, a single person with no children
can earn up to $28,725. A
family of four can earn up
to $58,875. The LITC can
make exceptions on a caseby-case basis but at least
90 of their clients must fall
below 250 of the poverty
guidelines.
“We have two attorneys
who represent individuals
directly before the IRS and
the U.S. Tax Court when
necessary,” said Stacie
Peters, Clinic Director of
the LITC at Community
Action. “Our services are
offered at no cost to the
taxpayer. The only fee
the taxpayer is responsible for is the cost of
filing fees with the U.S.
Tax Court.”. According to
Peters, the LITC program
was created to assist taxpayers, particularly those
of limited means, to be
able to address their IRS
controversies.
The LITC also sees many
individuals who have fallen
victim to scams where
individuals or companies
promise to settle their tax
problems for “pennies on
the dollar.” The IRS has
been alerting taxpayers
about these scams for many
years. The scam operators
typically charge a large upfront retainer but do little
or nothing to assist the taxpayer. Peters warned that
taxpayers should discuss
their case with the LITC
before attempting to hire a
paid firm or representative.
The LITC most often
sees taxpayers after the
IRS audits their tax return.
During the audit process,

the IRS requests additional
information from the taxpayer and then makes a determination of whether the
taxpayer can claim all of
the exemptions and credits that he or she originally
claimed.
“Taxpayers should contact us as soon as they
receive the first notice
from the IRS,” Peters said.
“When we are contacted at
the initial stage, it is much
easier to assist the taxpayer with an audit. Once
a determination has been
made, it is more difficult
and takes much longer to
resolve the situation.”
The LITC also routinely
assists taxpayers who have
fallen behind on filing requirements to file back
tax returns and negotiate
with the IRS to address the
amount owed in back taxes.
“We often have clients who
have not filed returns for
many years,” Peters said.
“We are able to utilize other programs to prepare the
unfiled returns and ensure
that the IRS receives them.
We can then begin addressing the amount owed. The
IRS does offer payment
plans or our staff can negotiate with the IRS to settle
the tax debt for less than
the full amount owed if the
client’s financial situation
is unlikely to improve. For
those who cannot afford
to make payments towards
the debt, there is an option
called Currently Not Collectible. This option can be
used to show the IRS that
you cannot afford to make
a payment at this time.
Once approved, the IRS
will no longer attempt to
collect on the tax owed until your financial situation
improves.’
The LITC is open Monday through Friday 8:30
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. yearround.
Appointments
are necessary and can be
scheduled by calling (740)
289-2371, ext. 240. The
clinic also offers assistance
to taxpayers who cannot
travel to the clinic in Piketon due to financial or
medical reasons.

WHEELING, W.Va. (AP) —
Wheeling police say they’re looking for a third person who may
have been involved in the fatal
beating of a Wheeling Jesuit University student.
Two men are charged with
murder, but Detective Sgt. Gregg
McKenzie tells one newspaper the
suspects say at least one other person was involved in the fight.
McKenzie didn’t immediately
return a message Wednesday afternoon.
Kevin Figaniak, 21, of Perkasie,
Pa., died early Sunday after an attack on the school campus. Figaniak was a senior business major
who played varsity lacrosse.

Police charged 22-year-old Craig
Peacock of Clewiston, Fla., and
24-year-old Jarrett Chandler of
Winnfield, La., with murder. Both
remain in the Northern Regional
Jail on $1 million bond.
Figaniak was with an unidentified friend, walking home from the
Ye Olde Alpha pub, on Saturday
night. That person suffered only
minor cuts and later told police
that he and Figaniak had been attacked by three or four men in
their mid-20s.
A criminal complaint says Peacock and Chandler admitted following and striking Figaniak after
an argument, and one said he may
have kicked the victim.

“I don’t believe there was a motive,” McKenzie said. “I don’t think
they knew each other at all.”
The suspects were arrested
Tuesday at a campsite often used
by oil and gas workers in the region. The two worked in that industry, had been in the area for at
least a year, and were living at the
recreational vehicle park alongside
a busy road, police said.
But resident Peggy told a local
television station she hopes the
community won’t judge others by
the incident.
“It’d be crazy to assume all the
people on the pipeline are murderers because these two boys are
accused of something,” she said,
“and nobody knows the facts yet.”

Cleveland man’s suicide brings little sympathy
CLEVELAND (AP) — Residents
in the tough Cleveland neighborhood
where three women were secretly
imprisoned for a decade reacted with
scorn and grim satisfaction Wednesday after Ariel Castro hanged himself
in his cell barely a month into a life
sentence.
Even the prosecutor on the case
joined in.
“This man couldn’t take, for even
a month, a small portion of what he
had dished out for more than a decade,” said Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty.
Castro, 53, was found hanging
from a bedsheet Tuesday night at the
state prison in Orient, said JoEllen
Smith, a spokeswoman for the corrections system. Prison medical staff
performed CPR before Castro was
taken to a hospital, where he was
pronounced dead.
“He took the coward’s way out,”
said Elsie Cintron, who lived up the
street from the former school bus
driver. “We’re sad to hear that he’s
dead, but at the same time, we’re
happy he’s gone, and now we know
he can’t ask for an appeal or try for
one if he’s acting like he’s crazy.”
As the shocking news set in, prison officials faced questions about
how a high-profile inmate managed
to commit suicide while in protective
custody. Just a month ago, an Ohio
death row inmate killed himself days
before he was to be executed.
The American Civil Liberties
Union of Ohio called for a full investigation by state prison authorities.
“As horrifying as Mr. Castro’s
crimes may be, the state has a responsibility to ensure his safety from
himself and others,” executive director Christine Link said in a statement.
Through a spokeswoman, Castro’s
three victims declined to comment.
Castro was sentenced Aug. 1 to

life in prison plus 1,000 years after
pleading guilty to 937 counts, including kidnapping and rape, in a deal to
avoid the death penalty. At his sentencing, he told the judge: “I’m not a
monster. I’m sick.”
Castro had been in a cell by himself in protective custody, meaning
he was checked every 30 minutes,
because of fears his notoriety could
lead to attacks from other inmates,
authorities said.
He was not on a suicide watch,
which entails constant supervision,
Smith said. She would not say why.
Castro had been on a suicide watch
for a few weeks in the Cuyahoga
County jail, before he pleaded guilty
and was turned over to state authorities, and police said after his arrest
that they had found a years-old note
in which he talked about suicide.
But authorities at the jail dropped
the suicide watch in June after concluding he was unlikely to take his
own life.
Castro’s captives — Amanda
Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle
Knight — disappeared separately
between 2002 and 2004, when they
were 14, 16 and 20. They were rescued from Castro’s run-down house
May 6 when Berry broke through a
screen door.
Elation over the women’s rescue
turned to shock as details emerged
about their captivity. Castro fathered
a child with Berry while she was being held. The girl was 6 when she
was freed.
Investigators also disclosed that
the women were bound with chains,
repeatedly raped and deprived of
food and bathroom facilities.
Knight told authorities that Castro impregnated her repeatedly and
made her miscarry by starving her
and punching her in the belly. Berry
said she was forced to give birth in a
plastic kiddie pool.

On Castro’s old street Wednesday,
freshly planted landscaping was in
bloom on the site where his house
stood before it was demolished by
the city a month ago.
Castro “took the easy way out,”
said James King, who lives down the
street. “He knew what he did was
wrong, so he killed himself.”
No one answered the door at the
home of Castro’s mother and brother.
Castro’s lawyers tried unsuccessfully to have a psychological examination of Castro done in jail before
he was turned over to state authorities, his attorney, Jaye Schlachet,
said Wednesday. Schlachet would
not comment further.
Lindsay M. Hayes, director of the
suicide prevention project of the National Center on Institutions and Alternatives, said inmates are not kept
indefinitely on suicide watch unless
their behavior warrants it.
Michael Casey, director of the Suburban Law Enforcement Academy
outside Chicago, said a notorious
figure like Castro would have been
more apt to be harmed by other inmates, citing the case of Jeffrey Dahmer, the Milwaukee cannibal who
was slain behind bars in 1994.
He said that given the way Castro
managed to hide his crimes for so
long, he probably would have been
able to conceal any suicidal tendencies from his jailers.
The prison where Castro hanged
himself, a so-called reception center
for newly arrived inmates, is crowded with nearly twice the 900 prisoners it was meant to hold, according
to state figures.
Stress is high and assaults are up
at the prison, but Tim Shafer, an official with the guards’ union, said:
“Just like out in the public, suicides
happen, and you just can’t prevent
every one of them.”

Chelsea Manning seeking presidential pardon
HAGERSTOWN, Md.
(AP) — Army Pvt. Chelsea Manning is seeking
a presidential pardon for
sending reams of classified information to
WikiLeaks, a leak she
says was done “out of a
love for my country and
sense of duty to others,”
according to documents
released Wednesday.
Manning’s lawyer, David
Coombs, sent the Petition
for Pardon/Commutation
of Sentence on Tuesday to
President Barack Obama
through the U.S. Justice Department, and to
Army Secretary John M.
McHugh.
The White House said
last month that a Manning
request for a presidential
pardon would be considered like any other.
Manning, formerly Bradley Manning, is serving a
35-year sentence at Fort
Leavenworth, Kan., for her
conviction July 30 on 20
counts for disclosing the
information while working
as an intelligence analyst

in Iraq in 2010. Manning
has said she wants to live
as a woman and receive
hormone therapy for gender dysphoria — the sense
that she is physically the
wrong gender.
The leak of hundreds
of thousands of battlefield reports, diplomatic
cables and a video of a
U.S. helicopter attack
that killed civilians was
the largest-volume leak
of classified material in
U.S. history. Manning
got the longest sentence
ever for disclosing U.S.
government secrets to
others for publication.
The Obama administration has cracked down on
security breaches, charging seven people with
leaking to the media. Only
three were prosecuted under all previous presidents
combined.
Mark Osler, a law professor and founder of a
commutation clinic at St.
Thomas University in Minneapolis, gave Manning’s
petition a “zero percent”

chance of success, given
the relatively low number of pardons granted by
Obama. The president has
granted 39 pardons and
one commutation since
taking office, and denied
1,333. That’s a lower rate
than any recent predecessors, Osler said.
It’s also very early in
Manning’s
confinement
for the White House to
seriously consider such a
request, Osler said. Pardon applicants ordinarily
must wait five years after
their release to be eligible
for consideration. Those
seeking to have their prison sentence commuted
to time served generally
must show they were oversentenced or that they
underwent extraordinary
rehabilitation in prison,
Osler said.
Pardon applicants can
request a waiver of the
five-year waiting period,
according to the federal
Office of the Pardon Attorney at the Justice Department. Manning’s ap-

plication doesn’t mention
a waiver. Coombs said in
an emailed response to
The Associated Press that
a waiver request is implicit
in the filing.
Manning signed the petition with her legal name,
“Bradley Manning,” not
Chelsea. Coombs has said
anything having to do with
the pardon or court-martial
would have to be in Bradley’s name. Officials at Fort
Leavenworth say Manning
would have to get a legal
name change to be known
as Chelsea.
Manning wrote in the
petition that she started
questioning the morality
of U.S. actions in Iraq and
Afghanistan while reading
secret military reports on a
daily basis in Iraq.
“When I chose to disclose classified information, I did so out of a love
for my country and sense
of duty to others.”
Manning acknowledged
she broke the law, adding, “I regret if my actions
hurt anyone or harmed the

United States.” That’s different from her unsworn
courtroom statement Aug.
14, when Manning told
a military judge: “I am
sorry that my actions hurt
people. I’m sorry that they
hurt the United States.”
Coombs said in an email
that Manning’s statements about harm are not
contradictory.
“The harm offered by
the Government during
the trial was speculative at
best. The majority of the
instances provided by the
Government for potential
harm either were unrealized or had other more
plausible causes, rather
than Private Manning’s
conduct, for the potential
harm,” Coombs wrote.
At Manning’s trial,
government
witnesses
testified that some of the
leaked information endangered information sources,
forced ambassadors to be
reassigned, were used as
al-Qaida propaganda and
even obtained directly by
Osama bin Laden.

However, Coombs wrote
in a cover letter to Manning’s petition that none
of Manning’s disclosures
caused any “real damage”
to the United States and
that the documents were
not sensitive information
meriting protection.
Coombs submitted 11
documents in support of
Manning’s petition. The
submissions include five
documents pertaining to
Sgt. 1st Class Paul Adkins,
one of Manning’s former
supervisors. The sergeant
testified that he was reprimanded and demoted,
apparently for failing to report Manning’s troubling
behavior — including a
photo of the soldier in a
blond wig and lipstick —
partly because he couldn’t
risk losing an intelligence
analyst.
Also among the documents was a letter from
Amnesty
International,
which said Manning’s
leaks exposed potential human rights violations.

Fulfill King’s dream with fair tax
Time to end the
and spending policies
dangerous shell game
John Conyers, Jr.
In the 50 years since the
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr. articulated the
dream of a generation, the
United States has seen significant progress toward
the ideal of racial equality.
But the other half of King’s
vision — economic equity
for all Americans — remains sadly unfulfilled.
America’s wealth and
income gaps have grown
to shocking proportions,
in no small part due to federal tax and spending policies that have betrayed the
great civil rights leader’s
ardent hopes for a better
society. To many, the quest
for economic equality represents the last great frontier in civil rights.
As we celebrate the 50th
anniversary of the March
on Washington, political
and social progress is clear.
Legally mandated racial
segregation in the American South has been dismantled.
African-Americans
have come to occupy positions of power and influence, from the boardroom,
to the statehouse and the
White House. When I was
first sworn into the House
of Representatives in 1965,
I joined just five other African-American members;
today, there are 43.
Yet, there is need for
continued vigilance. Voter
suppression efforts plague
modern elections. And
Section 5 of the Voting
Rights Act, which gives
the federal government
power to approve changes
to the voting laws of certain states with a history of
discrimination, has fallen
victim to legal challenge.
But the most obvious
failure to achieve equality
is in the economic realm.
With a few exceptions, U.S.
income inequality has consistently worsened since
reaching a low in 1968,
according to the Congressional Budget Office and
the U.S. Census Bureau.
Over that same period, the
average African-American
household continued to

rights included
economic rights,
and that we can

union until
income, wealth
and opportunity
are made more
equal.
earn about 60 percent of
the average white household. The percentage of
Americans living in poverty — after dropping to
11 percent in the years
immediately following Dr.
King’s 1963 speech — was
back to 15 percent in 2011.
Wealth disparities are
even more glaring. While
the wealthiest 1 percent –
just over a million households — owned more than
one-third of America’s
wealth in 2007, the bottom
80 percent – almost 89 million households — owned
only 15 percent. In 2010,
the median white household had eight times the
assets of the median black
household, according to
the Urban Institute. These
huge discrepancies threaten our democratic institutions because concentrated
wealth wields disproportionate political influence.
While several factors
have contributed to these
troubling financial disparities, researchers have
determined that roughly
one-third of this escalating
income inequality can be
attributed to our skewed
tax system and cuts to public services and benefits.
An unfair budget policy
contributes to economic
inequality in different
ways. First, lower tax rates

ous tax loopholes for large
corporations keep money
in the pockets of those who
need it least. Then, the resulting decline in tax revenue causes Washington
to slash investments in everything from job training
to education to mass transit — the very resources
American families need to
pull through tough times
and get ahead over the
long-term.
To help close these economic gaps, we need reformed tax and spending
policies that require everyone to pay a fair share.
Ending tax loopholes that
encourage
individuals
and large corporations to
hide profits and ship jobs
overseas could easily raise
$600 billion over the next
decade to invest in American communities. Limiting
the wealthiest families to
the top tax deduction available to middle-class taxpayers (28 percent) could
raise another $500 billion.

Iran heads the list of countries the
United States and other nations have targeted for sanctions because of its believed
nuclear weapons goal and its support of
terrorist groups. There are few governments that elicit more concern among
Americans than the one in Tehran.
Certainly no law-biding U.S. citizen or
business would provide goods or services
directly to Iran or any organization that
funnels money to that regime. In fact, it
is illegal to do so. But that is exactly what
has happened and likely is still happening
because it is perfectly legal in the U.S. to
set up anonymous shell corporations—secretive entities often exploited by criminals to move dirty money
Before 2009, companies renting office
space in a skyscraper at 650 Fifth Avenue
in New York were unknowingly sending
money to the Iranian government. If you
were shopping in the retail businesses in
that building, you were unwittingly financing the Iranian government.
You wouldn’t have known that you possibly were contributing to Iran’s nuclear
weapons program because an anonymous
shell company was set up to disguise that
Bank Melli co-owned the building and collected the rent, according to court documents. The Iranian government owns and
controls Bank Melli.
Federal agencies discovered the corporate shell game and the matter is now in
the courts. Fortunately that particular revenue stream to Iran has stopped.
But how many other shell companies are
used to financially benefit enemy states
because U.S. state laws don’t require the
identity of owners to be disclosed? How
many are used by drug traffickers, terrorist cells, tax cheats, pimps, arms traders,
fraudsters or other criminals to further
illegal activity? How many American dollars are secretly sent to groups most of us
would never support?
Because of legalized corporate secrecy,
we don’t know the answers to these questions.
In many states it is easier to incorporate
a business than to get a driver’s license.
Very few states require that the ultimate
owner or owners of a business be listed
on the incorporation form. Imagine applying for a driver’s license without having
to reveal your identity. Yet every day in
America, businesses are created without
any obligation to provide this basic information.
I spoke with the person in charge of
business filings in South Carolina. She
acknowledged that, like almost all other
states, the law does not require the state
to collect information about the identities
of the real persons that own or control a
business. Remedying this problem might
be of interest to her agency, she told me.

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the
press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.

No Main Street small
business or consumer
wants to inadvertently
support an anonymous
shell corporation that
is laundering money,
supporting terrorists or
funneling money to enemy
governments.
A state-by-state effort, however, probably wouldn’t succeed because a state like
Delaware, which intentionally has notoriously lax corporation filing requirements
and collects substantial revenues from
incorporations, has a financial incentive
to resist such efforts. If even one state
remains a haven for corporate secrecy, a
state-by-state solution fails.
Congress can fix this problem. The
bipartisan Incorporation Transparency
and Law Enforcement Assistance Act
(ITLEAA) is a common sense solution
that would require companies to disclose
the names, addresses, and driver’s license
or passport numbers of the real people
who ultimately own or control them. This
would make it harder for criminals to exploit the U.S. system to hide and finance
their activities.
The ITLEAA lets states decide whether
to make this information public or to only
make it available to law enforcement with
a subpoena. States can choose to respect
the privacy of business owners by not
requiring their personal information be
made public. Yet it is difficult to overstate
the importance of this information to local, state and federal law enforcement authorities engaged in pursuing criminals
who currently count on anonymity to
mask their illegal actions. Complying with
ITLEAA would not be a significant regulatory burden on small business owners.
The US Department of Justice and the
Treasury Department believe this is so important, they have offered $40 million in
forfeiture funds they’ve seized from criminal activity to help states with any cost of
complying with the law.
No Main Street small business or consumer wants to inadvertently support an
anonymous shell corporation that is laundering money, supporting terrorists, or
funneling money to enemy governments.
The ITLEAA will help make sure that this
doesn’t happen.

seniors may be eligible for
savings programs through
Medicare to help with prescription costs thereby
leaving money for food, or
for food products through
SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program).
Statistics released by the
National Center on Aging,
show that only one in three
eligible older adults is enrolled in SNAP. In many
cases the reason for that is
that
seniors are less
likely to know what they
might qualify for or how
to apply and have doubts
about the value of the benefit, or simply find the application process too confusing.
Steps are currently being
taken by the Area Agency
on Aging to address the
problems and connect the
elderly to community resources that can best meet
their individual needs.
Seniors who are having
difficulty handling their
food and medicine costs
are encouraged to contact
the Meigs County Council
on Aging, 992-2161, or the
Area Agency 8 at 1-800331-2644 for information
and/or assistance on how
to get help.
Area Agency 8 Director
Rick Hindman said that his
staff can help direct seniors
and caregivers to nutrition
services in the community.
This month efforts to help
draw attention to community resources are being
expanded and assistance
to seniors is being offered.
He pointed out that some
seniors have had to choose
between buying food and
paying utility bills because
they were not aware of support programs available
to them. He stressed that
information and assistance
is available and he encouraged seniors to seek the
help they need.

Feds won’t enforce same-sex veterans law Local stocks
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama
administration said Wednesday it will
stop enforcing a law that blocks benefits
to partners of military veterans in samesex marriages.
In a letter to congressional leaders, Attorney General Eric Holder said that a
provision in federal law on benefits to veterans and their families defines “spouse”
to mean a person of the opposite sex. He
says that definition leaves out legally married same-sex couples, and runs afoul of a
June Supreme Court ruling.
The court declared unconstitutional
a provision in the Defense of Marriage
Act restricting the words marriage and

spouse to apply only to heterosexual
unions. Holder says that like the Defense
of Marriage Act, the provision in the veterans benefits law has the effect of placing lawfully married same-sex couples in
a second-tier marriage.
“Decisions by the Executive not to enforce federal laws are appropriately rare,”
Holder told Congress. “Nevertheless, the
unique circumstances presented here warrant non-enforcement.”
He said the Supreme Court’s conclusion
that DOMA imposes a stigma on everyone in same-sex marriages “would seem
to apply equally” to the veterans benefits
law.

Roush marked a 47 and Crew War-

den marked a 49. Ryan Shenkelberg
rounded out the SHS total with a
round of 51. Bradley McCoy fired a
52, while Tanner Thorla posted a 53
in non-counting efforts.
David Warned led the Eagles with
a 41 on the day, followed by Josh
Parker with a 45 and Tyler Hensley
with a 55. There was a tie for the
fourth score between Jack Kuhn and
Zach Connolly, who each shot 56,
whole Dustin Frost fired a 57 in a
non-counting effort.

White Falcon golfers fall to Bison
MASON, W.Va. — In baseball,
it has been said that a hitting
spree or a hitting slump can, at
times, be contagious.
Considering the final results of
the Wahama White Falcon (2412) versus their counterparts
from Buffalo, the same may now
be said about golf.
These two teams squared off
against one another Tuesday
afternoon in a play six, count

four format at the Riverside Golf
Course.
It was a beautiful day to play.
The sun was shinning, the temperature was pleasant and the
humidity from the past week had
disappeared. The golf course was
green and lush and in excellent
condition. In other words, it was
almost a perfect day to be on the
golf course.
However, the host team failed

to play near their potential
shooting a team total of 202 losing by 21 strokes to the visitors.
Buffalo’s final four-man tally was
a 181.
Senior Cory Hoshor, considered to be one of the top high
school players in West Virginia,
led his team with a score of 39.
That score included a triple bogey six on the ninth hole, but still
earned Cory the medalist honor

by three strokes.
Nic Gunter gave Cory amble
support shooting a 42. Bradley
Harris added a 48 while Anthony
Blankenship’s 52 was the final
score in Buffalo’s team total.
Both Blaik Caplinger and Nicholas Whittington turned in a score
of 54 with neither score included
in the final tally.
Michael MacKnight managed
a 47 for his nine holes to lead the

White Falcons. Nathan Redman,
battling a nose bleed the entire
round, hung in there and finished
with a 50 for his efforts.
Michael Hendricks added a
52 while both Mason Hicks and
Benjamin Foreman shot 53 with
only one of those scores being included in the team total. Nolan
Pierce also play for the Wahama
team with his score not included
in the final tally.

Defenders shut out Belpre on the pitch
Alex Hawley

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

BELPRE — Back in the win
column.
After back-to-back losses the
Ohio Valley Christian soccer
team bounced back to take a

2-0 triumph over host Belpre,
Tuesday evening in Washington
County.
OVCS (2-2-0) senior T.G.
Miller snapped the 0-0 tie in the
21st minute on a penalty kick,
following a Golden Eagles (0-20) handball. The score remained

1-0 at halftime.
In the second period the Belpre
goalkeeper committed a handball
violation outside the box that set
up a Defenders free kick from 20
yards out. Miller cashed in on
the free kick and put Ohio Valley
Christian on top 2-0 with his sec-

ond goal of the contest. The Defenders held off Belpre and took
the 2-0 triumph.
Sophomore goalkeeper Marshall Hood finished with three
saves in the game for OVCS,
while Belpre’s Cody Storer finished with one save. The Golden

Eagles held a 4-to-1 advantage in
corner kicks and a 6-to-4 advantage in shots. Each team finished
with three shots on goal.
The Defenders will look for
the season sweep of Belpre on
September 15th, when the Golden Eagles travel to Gallipolis.

Blue Devils win tri-match at Cliffside GC
Alex Hawley

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — The
Blue Devils defend home
turf.
The Gallia Academy golf
team welcomed Chesapeake and Warren to Cliffside Golf Course Tuesday

night but it was the Blue
Devils who got the last
laugh, firing a 165 to win
by three strokes. The Warriors were second with a
posted 168, while Chesapeake was third with a 172
in the play six, count four
format.
Gallia Academy was

led by a trio of five-over
par rounds of 41, fired by
Bruce Moreaux, Zach Graham and Marcus Moore.
Dares Hamid rounded out
the GAHS total with a sixover par round of 42. Miles
Cornwell fired a 56, while
Jeremy Brumfield shot a
57 in non-counting efforts

for the Blue Devils.
Warren was led by Reece
Patton and Josh Jankauskas with rounds of 41.
Kyler Dennis’ 42 and Max
Hapney’s 44 rounded out
the Warriors total. Robert
Henry posted a 46 and
Braxton Harter carded a
56 in a non-counting ef-

forts for WHS.
The Panthers were led
by Drew Oxley with a 41,
followed by Derrick Lemley with a 43. Shane Stevens and Jacob Henson
each fired 44s to round
out the CHS total. Justin
Black posted a 56 and Austin Hutchison fired a 78 in

non-contributing efforts.
Gallia
Academy’s
Moreaux, Graham and
Moore, along with Warren’s Patton and Jankauskas, and Chesapeake’s
Oxley were all co-medalist
with five-over par rounds
of 41.

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
Sept. 5, 2013:
This year your creativity and intellect merge to create new opportunities. Others quickly discover this
interesting blend, and often find you
when they need solutions. You will
expand your circle of friends and
professional associates, and you’ll
feel good about this growth. If you
are single, you could meet someone
through a friend whom you would like
to get to know. If you are attached,
the two of you will find that your
relationship is more upbeat and supportive than in the past. Enjoy it. A
fellow VIRGO adds different ideas to
your life.
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)
If you are in the mindset
to start a diet, clean your office or
approach a situation differently, then
this is the time to resolve to do just
that. If you make that resolution, you
will find it is easier to head down a
new path. Tonight: Start by sharing
your decision with a friend.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
You finally will be able to
straighten out a problem with a child
or loved one and start on better footing. You might see quite a difference
as a result. When approaching a
project, toss yourself completely into
it, as it could be more fun than you
think. Tonight: Spread your wings.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
If you decide to turn around
an annoying situation or domestic
matter, you will be more likely to
succeed if you start today. Financial
opportunities are heading your way,
and you might choose to head in a
new direction as a result. Tonight:
Treat a friend or two to munchies.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
You might need to
update your software, get a new
security system or change the oil in
your car. Your main concern needs
to be communication, though, and it
will be crucial to have equipment that
works. You even might opt to buy a
new computer. Tonight: Hang out at
home.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Listen to news with an
open mind. A new beginning might
become possible in the realm of your
finances. In your mind’s eye, consider
what could happen and decide what
you want. Laughter surrounds you.
Good news also might come forward.

Tonight: Enjoy the moment.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your magnetism draws
others toward you. If you could have
more smoothly flowing interactions,
would you want that? If the answer is
“yes,” decide to create more of that
energy in your life. You will have an
easy time instrumenting that change.
Tonight: All smiles.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Spend some time reviewing
what you feel is important to you, and
consider enhancing the areas that
bring you the most happiness. Use
the day to make a personal assessment of your daily life; you will see
only positive results. Tonight: Take
some much-needed private time.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You might realize that
you are on the verge of completing
an unfinished project or pursuing an
unmet goal. You’ll need to gain a
new perspective, and, depending on
the issue, possibly even speak with
an expert or someone whom you
respect. Tonight: Where friends are.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You have responded to others’ needs, so congratulate yourself
on stepping up to the plate. Ask yourself if this is a pattern you would like
to repeat. If not, step back gracefully
and let others have the opportunity to
assume some responsibility. Tonight:
Burn the midnight oil.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Keep searching for the pot
of gold over the rainbow. Whatever
it is that you want, now is the time to
act. Don’t leave this desire to good
luck. Allow your determination to push
you. A partner could prove to be beneficial in your pursuit. Tonight: Read
between the lines.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
A key relationship involving
finances will push you toward change
and possibly even some type of
renewal. You often discuss personal
matters with this person, and you
trust and need his or her feedback,
even if you don’t always see eye to
eye. Tonight: Easy works.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
Continue to let a loved
one play a dominant role. You might
question what is going on within your
immediate circle and wonder what
might be best for both of you. Make
suggestions, but do not make the final
decision alone. Tonight: A vibrant,
meaningful discussion is possible.

SPRINT CUP SERIES

Race: Federated Auto Parts 400
Track: Richmond International Raceway
Location: Richmond, Va.
When: Saturday, Sept. 7

Layout: .75-mile D-shaped oval
Banking/Turns: 14 degrees

2012 Winner: Clint Bowyer
Crew Chief’s Take: “(This is) the best
short track on the schedule that’s a big
enough venue for fans but isn’t too small.
I think Martinsville is still the greatest short
track, but Richmond is the best as far as
location. For a NASCAR venue that is going
to attract 100,000 people for a short track
race, it is the best on the schedule. I wish
they would make a few more like it. Iowa
is a replica, and we see how popular it is.
NASCAR needs to reconfigure three or four
of these cookie-cutter tracks and make
them three-quarter- or seven-eighthsmile tracks.”

an accordion-type incident following a
lap 31 caution. It started when their
other teammate, Jeff Gordon, got

36th. Johnson pitted seven times to
repair his car. He later spun and finished four laps down in 28th.

CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES

Kyle Busch wins in Atlanta; race to Chase scrambled

By MATT TALIAFERRO
Athlon Sports Racing Editor

When the dust of a 500-mile
race settled over Atlanta, the fortunes of many a Chase hopeful had
been altered.
The AdvoCare 500 at Atlanta
Motor Speedway — NASCAR’s
penultimate “regular season”
event — witnessed a bevy of drivers take their turn at the front of
the field. Juan Pablo Montoya,
Carl Edwards, Jeff Gordon, Joey
Logano, Clint Bowyer and Brad
Keselowski, among others, spent
considerable time at the point. But
it was Kyle Busch who’s rollercoaster of an evening ended on a
high note.
Driving a car that at one point in
the night he called “a joke,”
Busch’s Dave Rogers-led team
tuned it into a contender and got
him off pit road first on lap 290 of
325. The talented Las Vegas native
did the rest, holding off a hardcharging Joey Logano over the
final 36 laps to score his fourth
Cup Series victory of the 2013
season and lock himself into
NASCAR’s Chase for the Championship.
“Well, it started a little ugly,”
Busch said. “I was a little ill on the
radio, I’m sure, but I can’t say
enough about (crew chief) Dave
Rogers and the team that he’s as-

sembled around us.
“I think if you can pin a championship night on one race or a
championship on one night in a
race, I think tonight was the night.
We certainly had a lot to do and a
lot to overcome, and I think that
Dave and these guys stuck with
me. For as bad as I may have been
talking (on the radio), they certainly never gave up. They kept
going to work and trying to figure
things out for me and make my life
a little easier behind the wheel.”
Other Chase hopefuls were not
as fortunate, namely the defending
series champion, Keselowski.
Having led 31 laps, Keselowski
was on cruise control when the engine in his No. 2 Ford lost power
with 82 laps remaining. It expired
for good with 18 laps to go. The
resulting
35th-place
finish
dropped him to 15th in the series
point standings, 28 points out of
10th and without a win to fall back
on as a wild card entry into the
playoffs.
“At this point it’s not frustration.
I’m beyond frustration,” Keselowski said. “At this point
you’re just looking above going,
‘This must be some kind of test to
prove how strong we are and what
our character is’ because I believe
in the people I’m around. I think
they’re doing the right things, but
it’s just not working. So I’m reserved to this being a test and I

■ In his first media session since a sprint
car crash on August 5 sidelined Tony
Stewart with a broken leg, the
three-time Cup champion said he
would return to the Cup Series in
time for the 2014 Daytona 500.
Sporting a knee-high cast on his
right leg, Stewart met with the
media at the Stewart-Haas Racing
shop, answering questions for approximately 80 minutes.
Stewart noted that he would cut
back on his “extracurricular” racing activity outside of NASCAR
next year. He noted, though, that
he still plans to drive sprint cars,
though no schedule or timetable
has been set.
Stewart praised his organization for its quick work in
dealing with the injury that has kept him off the Cup circuit since early August. He also explained — often in
vivid detail — what happened in the wreck in which he
suffered a compound fracture when his tibia and fibula
were broken.
Stewart also confirmed that former Michael Waltrip Racing crew chief Rodney Childers had been signed to lead
the No. 4 SHR team that will be driven by Kevin Harvick.
He addressed the recent surprise hiring of Kurt Busch to
a fourth SHR team, saying he doesn’t expect any issues

love challenges and this is gonna
be one helluva challenge.”
Were Keselowski to miss the
Chase, it would mark the first time
since 2006 that the defending
champion missed the playoffs.
Others in the garage fared much
better. Busch, along with six other
drivers, have clinched their postseason spot, including Jimmie
Johnson, Clint Bowyer, Kevin
Harvick, Carl Edwards and Matt
Kenseth. Kasey Kahne, on the
strength of two wins, has clinched
at least a wild card spot.
Still on the bubble are past
champions Kurt Busch and Jeff
Gordon, who finished fourth and
sixth, respectively. Busch holds an
18-point advantage over Gordon
for the final spot in the Chase. Neither driver has a win to his credit
this season.
Meanwhile, Logano, who finished second in Atlanta, has a 10point cushion over Busch, while
Greg Biffle maintains a tenuous
eight-point buffer. Both drivers
have scored one victory this year.
Atlanta’s third-place finisher,
Martin Truex Jr., and Ryan Newman (fifth) sit 13th and 14th in the
standings. Currently, they are
vying for the second wild card bid,
although things could change drastically in the wild-card battle in the
regular season finale at Richmond
on Saturday evening.

between what some have labeled a contentious four-driver lineup of Stewart, Harvick, Busch and Danica Patrick.
■ Jeff Gordon and Carl Edwards
had a long conversation following
Sunday’s race in Atlanta about some
physical racing that occurred between the two during the event. In
the end, it appeared they couldn’t
even agree to disagree.
“I have a problem with a guy when I
apologize for sliding him and then he
proceeds to tell me all the things I
did wrong in the race,” Gordon said.
“I didn’t hear him apologizing for any
of the things he did. I tried to have a
Tony Stewart regular conversation and that didn’t
seem to be possible with him.”
“He thought I ran into him, so I think it was a case where
both of us were mad at each other,” Edwards explained.
“He wasn’t very happy with our conversation, but at the
end of the day I felt like he was the aggressor and didn’t
give me much of an opportunity to drive my race car that
first time.”
Edwards stated that although the two had a lengthy conversation, no middle ground was found.
“Finally he got frustrated enough with the conversation
that he just walked away, which might be smart,” Edwards said.

Speedway, NASCAR’s favorite son spun
from contact with Busch and limped
home 15th on a night when his team —
and untold legions of fans — seemed
poised for celebration.
Battling side-by-side for the lead with
three laps to go, Earnhardt and Busch tangled in Turn 3, sending Earnhardt into the
wall and allowing Clint Bowyer to sneak
past Busch and steal his second career
Cup Series victory.
Instead of celebrating his first win in two
years and first with his new Hendrick Motorsports team, Junior saw his lengthy
drought continue into the summer.
Busch, a former Hendrick driver in his
first season with Joe Gibbs Racing, instantly became public enemy No. 1 of Junior Nation for his role in the Richmond
incident — one that would create tension
between the two drivers, and their supporters, in the weeks and months to come.

Athlon Fantasy Stall
Looking at Checkers: Kyle Busch has
found victory at RIR in one of its two dates
for the last four seasons.
Pretty Solid Pick: Clint Bowyer has showings of seventh, first and second in his last
three visits to Richmond.
Good Sleeper Pick: Ryan Newman has
finished outside of the top 15 only once at
Richmond since 2008.
Runs on Seven Cylinders: Before his
ninth-place finish in the September 2012
race, Greg Biffle never finished better
than 13th in Richmond races dating back
to 2007.
Insider Tip: The Chase is on the line for a
group of drivers, including Biffle, Kurt
Busch, Jeff Gordon, Martin Truex Jr., Newman and Brad Keselowski.
