Council approved the purchase of a mini-excavator for the street department. The equipment comes with multiple attachments including a brush-hog, buckets and a jackhammer. Mayor Don Anderson said having the machinery would allow the employees to keep brush back from the roads. Anderson also thinks they could trim the riverbank after the bigger trees are cut. Fiscal Officer Sue Baker said the street fund’s budget is currently in the negative. However, Baker is expecting revenue from the past street levy to be in the account soon. The village is also expecting to see an increase from the recent gas tax. Council voted unanimously for the purchase with six year financing and one annual payment of $14,078. This would make a total cost of $84,468 for the excavator and attachments. Council also voted unanimously to move forward with the current expense levy for the November ballot. The county auditor certified the estimated revenue as $57,469.11 See COUNCIL | 3 Syracuse Council approves employee benefits increase Wednesday, July 17, 2019 s 50¢ TOWNSHIP TALES AND TIDBITS A gigantic elm tree, said to be one of the largest in the Photos courtesy of the Meigs County Public Library country when it was measured around 1890, stood at the History Collection | Steve Badgley contributor corner of Third and Elm in Racine.

CHESHIRE — The Ohio Fire Marshal’s Office and the Gallia Sheriff’s Office have reportedly identified persons of interest they believe may have started the old Kyger Creek/River Valley High School fire Saturday night. The investigation is ongoing and potential charges may be filed in the near future, said a release from the sheriff’s office on Tuesday morning. According to Brian Bohnert, state public information officer from the Fire Marshal’s Office, the fire occurred reportedly near the school’s gymnasium and the cause is still being investigated. The sheriff’s release says by the time first responders were on scene, the entire gymnasium had been engulfed. First responders received the fire call at roughly 8:25 p.m., Saturday.

He asked Current and archived obituaries available at mydailysentinel.com Lawmakers set to reconvene on budget COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Lawmakers who have been negotiating Ohio’s next two-year state budget were set to reconvene Tuesday, a day before the extended deadline for the House and Senate to pass the $69 billion spending plan. The conference committee was scheduled to meet late Tuesday afternoon amid speculation that it had finally reached an agreement on the budget. Lawmakers have been hashing out differences between the House and Senate versions, including on tax breaks, school funding and policies related to health care. The state has been operating under a 17-day temporary budget this month since the Republican-led Legislature missed the original deadline for the first time since 2009. The budget must be approved by the House and Senate and signed by GOP Gov. Mike DeWine, who can veto elements he doesn’t approve.

Among the sticking points was a $250,000 business deduction that DeWine favors keeping. GOP Senate President Larry Obhof wanted to retain the $250,000 deduction and also raise a 3% limit on income above $250,000. Republican House Speaker Larry Householder agreed with raising that limit but wanted to reduce the deduction to $100,000. For personal income taxes, the Senate version would have eliminated the bottom two tax brackets and decreased tax rates for the others by 8% over two years. The House proposed a 6.6% cut. The House and Senate also disagreed on funding for educational wraparound services, changing high school graduation requirements, altering state intervention in poor-performing school districts, taxing vaping products, and increasing reporting requirements for pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs. MEIGS BRIEFS Editor’s Note: Meigs Briefs will only list event information that is open to the public and will be printed on a space-available basis.

A three-judge panel for the 6th U.S. Court of Appeals said Polster went too far in blocking the release of data that government attorneys argued could compromise DEA investigations. The lawsuits overseen by Polster were filed by city, county and tribal governments. Polster asked attorneys from both sides Monday to suggest how DEA data collected after 2012 should be protected. A group of plaintiff attorneys applauded Polster’s decision, calling it a “positive and transparent step forward” in a statement Monday. “The data provides statistical insights that help pinpoint the origins and spread of the opioid epidemic — an epidemic that thousands of communities across the country argue was both sparked and inflamed by opioid Fire manufacturers, distributors and pharmacies,” the statement said. Opioids killed more than 47,000 Americans in 2017, according the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Opioids are a category of drugs that include prescription painkillers such as OxyContin and street drugs such as heroin and fentanyl. The attorney group said the pre-2013 data has been provided to The Washington Post and HD Media, which both went to court seeking to have the data released publicly. HD Media is the owner of the Charleston Gazette-Mail newspaper, which used data released in 2016 by the West Virginia attorney general for a Pulitzer Prize winning investigation showing 780 million opioid pills were distributed between 2007 and 2012 in a state of 1.8 million people. ment.

As previously reported by The Daily Sentinel, the income tax withholdings were not paid to the state for 2013. The village owes $23,018.09.

However, with each passing day, I see technology and all its wonderful bells and whistles growing smaller and smaller in my windshield. There was a time when people I worked with came to me for instruction on how the latest gadget worked. I had either worked with it, read Herb about it, or one of our engineers had Day schooled me on it. But now I only Contributing hear crickets chirping in the now columnist vacant halls of my mind under the heading of technology. I see my children and my grandchildren with their noses pressed firmly onto their phones, or Xboxes, and I see the lightning quick actions of their little fingers punching in commands that make garage doors go up, down and sideways, lights flash on and off, and drones bring them snacks (just made that one up). I sit in amazement just watching the quiet chaos. Sure, I could ask what they are doing, how it works and why they are doing it, but they would only think I was challenging their right to use it, or even worse, I don’t know enough to ask intelligent questions. Recently, my wife and I entered a local telephone store as we decided it was past time for me to give up my beloved flip phone and enter whatever century this is (see how confused I am?) and get an iPhone, or an Android phone or a Gazebo phone, or whatever they are. I knew I was in big trouble when I announced to the friendly customer service rep that I needed to upgrade and then whipped out my current phone. With no display of shame whatsoever, she laughed hysterically. For a split second, I almost became offended, then I remembered the same response from nearly everyone when I draw that phone from its trusty, worn out, fraying leather holster on my belt to make a phone call or read a text. Thank God my wife was with me, because it only when downhill from there. The amused rep began asking me questions for which my only response was coughing, gagging and turning blue. Patty picked up my embarrassed pieces and with amazing accuracy guided all of us through the uncharted waters in the dark seas of my telephonic requirements (Wow, that was almost pretty. OK, not really). My phone will be here soon, and then someone will have to travel with me just so I can answer the phone when it rings, read a text if it comes, and then respond if a response is required. I think I can plug the charger in at night all by myself though. Yes, I am a big boy now. I find that I am not completely alone though. Just the other day I was at a local building supply store and I saw a couple of contractors with their flip phones. I approached, pulled out my phone and commented, “I see you’re a part of the club!” Both looked at me and in unison they replied, “You found one, too! What is it? We can’t figure it out!” then I noticed some monster phone-like object strapped to their utility belt and secured to their leg just like a six-shooter from the days of the Wild West. I shouldn’t be surprised though. When I received my first VHS video machine, my 7-year-old daughter and my 2-year-old son had to program it for me. When I had my security system installed in my home, after 12 hours of intense instruction and support from the electronics team, we just moved one of their junior team members into our finished basement to operate it for me (what the heck, he was 19, and his parents were trying to get him to move out and get an apartment anyway. Plus, he really didn’t eat that much). Now, I have entered an age when I need technology to be my friend. I need it to operate my business remotely when I am out of town. I need it to notify me in the middle of the night when there is a power drop and we are suddenly off the air. I need technology to work for me now like it has never worked before. I need to be one with technology, and technology to be one with me. I am in big trouble. Herb Day is a longtime local radio personality and singer-musician.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY “Modo et modo non habebant modum.” (By and by never comes.) — St. Augustine, (A.D. 354-A.D. 430). THEIR VIEW A tinge, twinge and a singe As a practical joker myself, I know revenge can be sweet. Several names of friends, the usual suspects, crossed my mind when I opened our mailbox recently and found a book by Marcus Tullis Cicero titled, “How to Grow Old: Ancient Wisdom for the Second Half of Life.” Ironically, Cicero suggests how a good old age begins in youth. He says moderation, wisdom, and enjoying all that life has to offer are habits we should learn while we are young, since they will sustain us as we grow older. As I eased into retirement at the beginning of this year, many have advised how important it is to stay busy, and to not sit around. Last week I decided to clean, rearrange, and re-vamp our detached garage. It was hot, humid and rainy when I began to reorganize the tools, pictures, mowers, electronics, and ‘stuff’ that has managed to accumulate over the years. A summer shower unexpectedly arrived with the rain striking the window in the garage and intensified as the wind began to blow harder. Within seconds, Brenda texted me to ask if I thought it was safe to be out in the garage during the storm. Of all the many pleasures in this world, one of my favorite things to do is to sit inside the garage jurisdiction, they in one of our reclinwere always good ing lawn chairs about providing with the garage support for officer door open, watchsafety. ing the rain fall It just so hapsoothingly on the pened that my late driveway. brother, Jack, was That is exactly Pat an officer on-duty what I was doing Haley when out of Contributing for the Wilmington Police Department nowhere, a flash of columnist that day, and he lightning landed responded to our just at the top of the hill, and the resulting dispatcher’s call.

Jack suggested we go to the emergency room at Clinton Memorial Hospital, which we did. Once there, I explained to the doctor what had happened. “Son, you have been struck by lightning and lived to tell about it!” the doctor said. “You should be fine. Just don’t stand outside in the rain anymore,” he laughed. “Nobody sits us down and tells us to collect objects when we’re young,” writes Rolf Potts, “it’s just something we do, as a way of familiarizing ourselves with the world, its possibilities, and our place in it.” When I returned home later that evening, I remember cutting off some of my singed hair and eyebrows and placing them in a small jar. Last week after the storm, I opened that same bottle and looked at my singed hair from 25 years ago. On second thought, maybe I do need more things to do in retirement.

WASHINGTON — In a remarkable political repudiation, the Democratic-led U.S. House voted Tuesday night to condemn President Donald Trump’s “racist comments” against four congresswomen of color, despite protestations by Trump’s Republican congressional allies and his own insistence he hasn’t “a racist bone in my body.” Two days after Trump tweeted that four Democratic freshmen should “go back” to their home countries — though all are citizens and three were born in the U.S.A. — Democrats muscled the resolution through the chamber by 240-187 over near-solid GOP opposition. The rebuke was an embarrassing one for Trump even though it carries no legal repercussions, but if anything his latest harangues should help him with his die-hard conservative base. Despite a lobbying effort by Trump and party leaders for a unified GOP front, four Republicans voted to condemn his remarks: moderate Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Fred Upton of Michigan, Will Hurd of Texas and Susan Brooks of Indiana, who is retiring. Also backing the measure was Michigan’s independent Rep. Justin Amash, who left the GOP this month after becoming the party’s sole member of Congress to back a Trump impeachment inquiry. Democrats saved one of the day’s most passionate moments until near the end. “I know racism when J. Scott Applewhite | AP From left, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., respond to remarks by President Donald Trump after his call for the four Democratic congresswomen to go back to their “broken” countries during a news conference at the Capitol in Washington on Monday. I see it,” said Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, whose skull was fractured at the 1965 “Bloody Sunday” civil rights march in Selma, Alabama. “At the highest level of government, there’s no room for racism.” Before the showdown roll call, Trump characteristically plunged forward with time-tested insults. He accused his four outspoken critics of “spewing some of the most vile, hateful and disgusting things ever said by a politician” and added, “If you hate our Country, or if you are not happy here, you can leave !” — echoing taunts long unleashed against political dissidents rather than opposing parties’ lawmakers. The president was joined by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California and other top Republicans in trying to redirect the focus from Trump’s original tweets, which for three days have consumed Washington and drawn widespread condemnation. Instead, they tried playing offense by accusing Donate A Boat Reach a huge audience on a budget with the Statewide Network by contacting AdOhio at 614-486-6677 ext. 1022 or at mcolton@adohio.net.

Even after two-and-a-half years of Trump’s turbulent governing style, the spectacle of a president futilely laboring to head off a House vote essentially proclaiming him to be a racist was extraordinary. Underscoring the stakes, Republicans formally objected after Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California said during a floor speech that Trump’s tweets were “racist.” Led by Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, Republicans moved to have her words stricken from the record, a rare procedural rebuke. After a delay exceeding 90 minutes, No. 2 House Democrat Steny Hoyer of Maryland said Pelosi had indeed violated a House rule against characterizing an action as racist.

The commissioner said there is no talk about adding to the league’s current 10 schools. “We have had no expansion discussion at any level. We like the 10 we have,” Bowlsby said Monday at the start of the conference’s football media days. “I don’t expect that to be an active topic on anybody’s agenda within the conference anytime in the foreseeable future.” Bowlsby talked about the round-robin schedule that sets up a title game rematch of the league’s top two teams, and a full round-robin schedule in basketball that allows for home-and-away games each season. He said there are record revenues and new opportunities in a changing media market, such as the new Big 12 Now digital network on ESPN+. “We have had a tremendous year competitively. We have had a very good year financially,” Bowlsby said. “I think our ADs and our board (of directors) are the most aligned that they have been in the seven years that I’ve been with the conference.” The Big 12 split $388 million in revenue for the last academic year, a 6 percent increase and an average of $38.8 million per school. Those numbers don’t include third-tier media rights and participation subsidies. While Oklahoma fell short of playing for a national championship after winning its fourth Big 12 title in a row and making its third College Football Playoff appearance, the league won national titles in women’s basketball (Baylor), women’s gymnastics (Oklahoma), men’s tennis (Texas) and men’s outdoor track (Texas Tech). There were also four national runner-ups, including Texas Tech’s men’s basketball team. After holding its football media days the past two years at The Star in Frisco, the practice headquarters for the Dallas Cowboys, the two-day talkfest was moved this year to the NFL team’s home stadium where the Big 12 drew a record 83,114 fans for its championship game last December between Red River rivals Oklahoma and Texas. “I think it can’t do anything but enhance the rivalry, although it’s fair to argue that that rivalry couldn’t be enhanced any more than it already is,” Bowlsby said. “I think this year’s game with OU and Texas picked one and two in the league probably has more anticipation to it than what we may have had before, and of course, that is multiplied by the fact that they played in the championship game last year.” Among other topics: — Bowlsby said the number of transfers is about the same on a school-by-school basis as in recent years. “Interestingly enough, there are kids going to the portal and leaving with a scholarship and finding difficulty in getting another scholarship at another institution,” Bowlsby said. “There are many walk-ons in the portal that are going from a non-scholarship environment trying to find a scholarship and you certainly can’t blame them for that.” — The Big 12 has had conversations with football coaches and athletic directors about making participation reports mandatory each week. “Well, it’s hard to say how far down the road it is,” Bowlsby said. “Frankly, I don’t know that we want to do anything that encourages gambling, not that that necessarily does. But the replicating what the NFL does with 32 teams is very different than replicating it across 700 schools that play football or 200 that play in Division I.” — Bowlsby said there was one particular statistic he wanted to make sure everyone got. “I want to see pencils moving and fingers tapping on this,” he said, before pointing out that in the Big 12’s seven bowl games last year, six of the opponents were held below their season averages offensively. “Contrary to popular belief, there are kids that tackle in the Big 12,” he said.

DALLAS, Texas — Conference USA has released its 2019 preseason football team, as selected by the 14 head coaches. The Thundering Herd — which was 6-2 in conference and finished second in the East Division last season — picked up a pair of defensive selections, to go with a spot apiece on offense and special teams. On the defensive squad for Marshall are senior defensive lineman Channing Hames and senior defensive back Chris Jackson. Hames recorded 39 tackles, including 10.5 for a loss and 5.5 sacks in 12 games last season, while Jackson had 56 tackles, 14 pass deflections and one interception, also in 12 games.

See HERD | 7 Peter Morrison | AP Francesco Molinari of Italy plays the 6th hole Monday at Royal Portrush Golf Club, Northern Ireland, during a practice round ahead of the 148th Open Golf Championship which begins July 18. Molinari faces long odds at Open PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — Golf’s oldest championship is all about tradition, and this is one Francesco Molinari could have done without. Fifty-one weeks after he won the British Open and gazed at his name etched on the silver claret jug, he had to return it. Getting it back won’t be easy. “I’m well aware of the challenges ahead,” Molinari said Monday on the first day of official practice at Royal Portrush. “There’s a lot of guys capable this week of winning the trophy. All I can do is do my best, try to put up a good defense and be in contention on Sunday. It’s a long week ahead, so I’ll try to take it step-by-step.” The first order of business was getting to know the links. Molinari was among the 21 players who played the Irish Open in 2012 at Royal Portrush. The sharp elevation, sensational views of the limestone cliffs known as White Rocks and the Dunluce Castle in the distance, it all looked familiar. But it’s not quite the same course. The Royal & Ancient wanted two new holes — Nos. 7 and 8 — to weave into the century-old links so that the final two holes could be used for concessions and promotional displays for more than 200,000 spectators expected this week. The elevation is rare for links golf, especially courses in the British Open rotation, and there are fewer pot bunkers. “We play a lot in England where it’s quite flat,” Tommy Fleetwood said. “And in front of you there’s a lot more bunkers on those links courses. These have a few more undulations and a few more blind shots. Sure, in general if you hit a good shot there’s always a bit of unpredictability on links golf. And you’re going to get good breaks and bad breaks. But definitely, poor shots are going to get punished.” Tiger Woods was again out early, this time going 18 holes with Rickie Fowler and Dustin Johnson. Just as much attention — if not more — figures to be on Rory McIlroy, playing before a home crowd in Northern Ireland on a course where he showed off his potential as a 16-year-old who set the course record at Royal Portrush with a 61 in the North of Ireland Amateur. Walking onto the course, fans stopped to watched large video screens of McIlroy’s pure swing as a lad, the curly locks and boyish looks of the teenager who shot the 61 at Royal Portrush, and then the older version of McIlroy tapping in to win the British Open five years ago at Hoylake. He played the Scottish Open last week, finishing in the middle of the pack, and stayed away from Royal Portrush on Monday. The honor of the opening tee shot Thursday goes to Darren Clarke, who was raised in Dungannon but spent his formative years at Portrush, which he now calls home. The R&A chief executive asked Clarke if he would mind starting the 148th Open — and first at Royal Portrush since 1951 — and it was an easy answer. This will be a nervous moment, and a proud one. “As soon as he asked me, it was always going to be a yes,” Clarke said. “Will there be tears? No. I’ll just be very proud that we have it back here in Northern Ireland. It’s going to be an amazing tournament. If you see how many people were in here yesterday watching, and again today, and all the practice tickets are all sold out. The atmosphere is going to be amazing.” Clarke had the jug for a year after his victory at Royal St. George’s in 2011, and he brought it with him to Royal Portrush for the Irish Open in 2012. Molinari, who gets panned for being a flatliner and loves it, didn’t do anything too wild with golf’s oldest trophy. He poured a few drinks from it but mostly kept it out of reach of his children to keep anything from happening to it. “I was very, very careful with it, especially the first few weeks,” Molinari said. “So much so that I forgot my TrackMan on the plane not to forget the claret jug. That, obviously, had the priority.” And now it’s back with the R&A for seven days until a new name is carved into the silver base. Not since Padraig Harrington in 2007 and 2008 has a player turned in the jug on Monday and reclaimed it six days later. Six of them finished 11 shots or more out of the lead. One missed the cut. McIlroy was unable to play because of injury. The only one who came remotely close to defending was Jordan Spieth last year. He had a share of the 54-hole lead and then played the final round without a birdie and finished four behind.

Woods trying to get up to speed for British Open PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — Tiger Woods was on the practice range when the gates at the British Open opened Tuesday, and before long he was on the tee and ready to go. He just didn’t go for very long. Woods played a full round at Royal Portrush when he arrived Sunday morning, and then again on Monday. For his third day of getting to know a links course that hasn’t hosted the British Open in 68 years, Woods made it down No. 1 and then skipped over to the 13th and played the homestretch. It would be simple to assume it was fatigue. After all, Woods hasn’t competed since June 16 at the U.S. Open, and he has only 10 rounds under his belt since his victory in the Masters for his 15th career major. In this case, no one wants to overdo it at a major, so this was nothing out of the ordinary. Then again, very little is ordinary with golf’s biggest star these days. When asked if there was anything physically bothering him outside the norm, Woods smiled and said, “Anything outside the norm.” The laughter made it hard to hear him say, “No.” British From page 6 Molinari set out Monday to get reacquainted with Royal Portrush, though one aspect remains vivid — the noise.

Galvin | AP file Cleveland Cavaliers guard J.R. Smith (5) dribbles to the basket during the first quarter of a preseason NBA basketball game against the Indiana Pacers on Oct. 8, 2018, in Cleveland. Cavs waive JR Smith By Tom Withers AP Sports Writer CLEVELAND — J.R. Smith’s never-a-dullmoment run with the Cavaliers is over. Cleveland released the colorful shooting guard Monday before his $15.6 million contract for next season became guaranteed. The Cavs had been trying to trade Smith for months, but the team was unable to find the right deal even after he agreed to extend his guarantee date from June 30 to July 15. By waiving Smith, the Cavaliers will open salarycap space and will move under the luxury tax threshold for next season. The 33-year-old played in just 11 games last season after he stepped away from the team in hopes of being traded or released. It was a mutual decision because he wasn’t happy with his role and the Cavaliers didn’t want him to be a negative influence on their young players. Once he clears waivers, Smith will be a free agent and can sign anywhere. Last week, Smith said he wasn’t finished playing and smiled when asked if it’s been strange not being part of a team for the past eight months. PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — Phil Mickelson received a crystal award Tuesday at the British Open. No, it wasn’t for most days without eating. One of the hallmarks of Mickelson’s career is playing for so long at a consistently high level, and the Official World Golf Ranking board honored him for a feat that might be as remarkable as his 47 wins worldwide or his five majors. Starting with a runner-up finish at the Casio World Open in Japan in November 1993 — the same year Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas were born — Mickelson has never been outside the top 50 in the world. The award was for 25 consecutive years, and he’s still going. “To play for this long, I’m very thankful and appreciative,” Mickelson said. Peter Dawson, the former R&A chief who now chairs the OWGR board, said Mickelson has been among the top 50 for 1,338 consecutive weeks. The second-longest streak belongs to Ernie Els, at 965 weeks. Among active streaks, Rory McIlroy is next at 556 weeks. How has Mickelson done it? “I don’t have a great answer for that,” Lefty replied, though he suggested a long swing has led to a long career because it has kept him largely free of be measured.” “To play for this long, I’m very thankful and appreciative.” — Phil Mickelson injuries. As for the motivation, Mickelson has never lacked that. “I love that I do,” he said, referring to golf as being a soothing, almost spiritual feeling. “I need it to function.” Even with this remarkable accomplishment, Mickelson can’t avoid questions about his six-day fast in which he says he lost 15 pounds. He posted a message on Twitter that begins, “Let’s get real.” He says he hasn’t been at his best and wanted a “hard reset.” So he did a six-day fast, drinking nothing but water and a special coffee blend designed for wellness. Mickelson says he craved food for the first day but was fine after that. “I don’t know if it will help me play better, but it makes feel better about myself,” he said. Tight schedule Justin Rose isn’t alone in trying to adjust to a schedule that stacks one major on top of the next one during four months — the Masters in April, PGA Championship in May, U.S. Open in June and British Open in July. He mentioned earlier this year that previously, no one had to think about a major for nearly two months after the Masters. That’s no longer the case with the PGA moving to May, and Rose said he’s had a hard time finding a rhythm. “I think we’re all trying to adapt to this new schedule, this new rhythm of the majors, and they seem to be coming thick and fast at the moment,” Rose said. “It’s about trying to peak, valley and peak again. … I think it’s trial and error figuring out what’s going to work. One major a month … in my opinion, they’re too soon.” It hasn’t affected Brooks Koepka, who won the PGA Championship and was runner-up in the Masters and U.S. Open. No one has ever finished first or second in all four majors in the same year. Justin Thomas can’t relate to other players because he missed the PGA Championship with a wrist injury. “But I think it’s going to take a couple of years for everyone to figure out what kind of works for them and getting ready for the majors or playing in other events that maybe they didn’t have the opportunity to in previous years,” Thomas said. The schedule was rearranged to allow the PGA Tour season to finish at the end of August, before football. Rose argues that majors should be “protected the most” because “that’s how all of our careers ultimately are going to and make sure it’s not a dream,” he said. “You want to make sure it’s McCormack award real.” For the second Just as real is the straight year, Dustin impending birth of twin Johnson received a trophy at the British Open. daughters, who Woodland hopes don’t arrive It was crystal for displaying, not a silver jug before their scheduled time. for drinking. “Our girls are supJohnson won the Mark posed to come in two H.
