It made no mention of the violent attack hours later at a subway station by men wielding iron pipes as they beat up people clad in the pro-democracy movement’s black shirts. Dozens were injured. The attack on China’s Liaison Office by a small group of protesters came after more than 100,000 people marched through the city to demand democracy and an investigation into the use of force by police to disperse crowds at earlier protests.

Not an unexpected surprise due to the fact that I spent more than 40 years in radio, and I used to own a station in earlier years. However, there were a few things that took me by surprise. No one had to tell me how much work it would be. I knew that. However, I must admit that the last time I Herb did something like this, I was a little Day younger and had more raw energy. Contributing Now I find that I don’t have as much columnist energy, but pure adrenaline. Which means that when the tank runs dry, it really runs dry. And while all this is true, that isn’t surprising to me. What I find most surprising is how different the music of the era I’m playing sounds. I was a kid when most of this stuff was big, but always loved Roy Orbison, Jay and The Americans, The Chiffons, Elvis and so on. However, while it is SO cool to hear these songs again, they somehow sound different. So, I thought I would investigate the reason for it, turned up my hearing aids, put on my pop-bottle eyeglasses, and went to work. I thought perhaps there was some after-market audio processing that took place which gave the music a different sound and feel. Could it have been that new musicians were employed to lay new soundtracks beneath original vocals? The research was quite exhaustive, and many were the times I just simply dozed off, and upon awakening, had forgot what I was investigating. That, of course, explains the extreme time consumption of this whole thing. I tried to contact several of the artists, but after about two grueling telephone calls, I learned that I didn’t have correct numbers, but I did meet some very nice wrong numbers and had some enjoyable conversations about grandkids, good sources of diet fiber and so on. Again, I forgot why I called them to begin with. Why had I chosen to play this genre of music in the first place was the only thing that was clear. My wife told me to. Now before you get the wrong idea, I am a man who can make up his mind, once my wife tells me which way to make it up (just kidding, kind of). Seriously though, it was at her suggestion that the fun oldies came to past. I was leaning toward traditional country, but we discussed that there are many sources for that genre, but few for fun oldies. And, as usual, she was correct. I have to confess that I am really “digging” (see, I can do the ’60s lingo) the music and the fond memories it brings back. I am also surprised at the young people who are enjoying it also. Some have seriously said they thought some of it was new. After all, they had never heard it before, so to them, it is new! It is so cool to hear certain tunes that take me back to a certain day. For example, each time I hear Paul McCartney sing “Yesterday,” I remember one miserable snowy Saturday afternoon in which my Dad and I had been out doing something, but came in to a warm house and while checking out the newly placed Christmas lights on the tree heard that song come on the radio. What a wonderful warm feeling that brings back. I have spoken with so many who have related similar experiences. Happy stories of people spending time with their parents or siblings. One lady thanked me for playing Roy Orbison because she remembered riding in the car with her mother and Roy Orbison music was playing all the while. That makes it all worth it to me. However, for some reason, the music sounds so me different to me now than it did back then. I guess it has something to do with hearing it through mature ears. I have a different appreciation for it now than I did back then. I remember when Credence Clearwater Revival, the Doobie Brothers and Rod Stewart were cranking out the hits. I could care less. I was into George Jones and Conway Twitty. I still am, but now I can’t get enough of Chicago, ELO, Dobie Gray and The Mamas and the Papas! Someone said that if you continually look back, you can’t move ahead, so I decided to make the past a part of our future. And so far, a lot of us are digging it!

For people who live out West, it’s a way of life. We’re used to the lush, moist climate of the Ohio valley and all the green, but we still can have dry summers so we’ve found dozens of perennials, shrubs and trees that can tolerate the occasional drought and still thrive. Certain plants have qualities that help them survive drought better than others, once they are established. Some plants retain water very well, like Sedum, Portulaca, Purslane and other succulents. Others, like the oak, have “tap roots” that can find water deep in the soil. Another survival technique is leaves that don’t allow much evaporation. Plants with this characteristic are often silvery or gray in color and have fine hairs on their leaves, like Dusty Miller and Lavender. Blue-gray evergreens like age. That’s why juniper and blue they are so often spruce have a proused for street tree tective coating that plantings, where acts as a sunscreen, they must survive reducing moisture surrounded by hot, loss. dry pavement.

After asking all veterans to stand to be recognized, Milburn went on to talk about Ohio’s effect on the war. “Over the course of the Civil War, Ohio supplied over 319,000 troops to the Union cause, the highest per capita of any state behind Pennsylvania and New York. Ohio had 29 artillery units, 13 cavalry units, and 198 infantry units that served the cause. 35,475 lost their life from combat or disease, while nearly 30,000 were either partially or nearly disabled.” Milburn concluded by saying today this battlefield is peaceful and we have our ancestors to thank for preserving the union.

PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — The outcome was never in doubt to just about everyone but Shane Lowry. A year ago, he sat in the parking lot at Carnoustie and cried after missing the cut in the British Open for the fourth straight year. Even with a four-shot lead Sunday at Royal Portrush, in a raging wind and pouring rain, Lowry kept telling his caddie he was nervous and scared, worried that he would ruin a storybook ending to the first Open in Northern Ireland in 68 years. “I suppose I didn’t even know going out this morning if I was good enough to win a major,” Lowry said. “And look, I’m here now, a major champion. I can’t believe I’m saying it, to be honest.” The 32-year-old Irishman marks his golf ball with a green shamrock. This had nothing to do with luck. With stout nerves and a soft touch around the greens, Lowry gave a sellout crowd what they wanted to see. He endured the worst weather of the week, held up under Sunday pressure and expectations of fans who cheered his every step, and won the British Open by six shots. All he could think about was that walk up the final hole, and it was everything he imagined. Even as the rain stopped, the tears began flowing. “I can’t believe this is me standing here,” Lowry said has he cradled the silver claret jug. “I can’t believe this is mine.” Lowry closed with a 1-over 72, the first time since 1996 the Open champion was over par in the final round, and it was no less impressive. More difficult than the rain was wind strong enough to break an umbrella. Lowry made four bogeys in the toughest stretch of Royal Portrush without losing ground. No one from the last 12 groups broke par. No one got closer than three shots of Lowry all day. “It was Shane’s time, Shane’s tournament,” said Tommy Fleetwood, who closed with a 74 to finish runner-up for the second time in a major. Thousands of fans who filled these links off the North Atlantic began to celebrate when Lowry rolled in an 8-foot birdie putt on the 15th hole to stretch his lead to six with three holes to play. See LOWRY | 7 Kevin Harvick holds off Denny Hamlin at New Hampshire LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kevin Harvick used a late bump and run to win last year at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Repeating required another bump, but there was little time for a run before Harvick crossed the finish line 0.210 seconds ahead of Denny Hamlin on Sunday. “It turned into a wild finish,” Harvick said after his first NASCAR Cup Series victory of the season. Harvick gave Hamlin a late opening when he had trouble navigating a group of cars that were off the lead lap. After nearly catching him on the back stretch, Hamlin made another run through the final two turns but couldn’t regain the lead. “I just told him ‘we were leaving on a tow truck or winning the race today,’” said Harvick, who hadn’t won since Texas in November. Driving a backup car after wrecking during a practice lap Friday, Hamlin led 113 laps, but couldn’t catch Harvick after pitting on a caution after Kyle Larson blew a tire on the 265th lap. “I just could not break that barrier,” Hamlin said. “I could not get him to make that one little slip to give me the bottom.” The 43-year-old Harvick led the final 41 laps in the No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Ford for his second straight victory at the track. He has four victories at the mile oval to tie the record set by Jeff Burton. Harvick won at New Hampshire last year after a late bump from behind knocked Kyle Busch off the lead. On Sunday, Harvick had a late bump again, but this time it was nudging Hamlin just enough to the side coming out of the final turn. “I’m like, ‘You’re not getting under me again.’ And he drove to the outside of me, and I waited until he got near me, and I just put a wheel on him,” Harvick said. Erik Jones was third, and Ryan Blaney fourth. NASCAR paid tribute to crew chief Nick Harrison, who died overnight after Saturday’s Xfinity Series race. NASCAR announced Harrison’s death during the drivers’ meeting before the race Sunday and honored him with a moment of silence. No details were given. The 37-year-old Harrison was the crew chief for Justin Haley, who finished in 13th Saturday. In Harrison’s first season with Kaulig Racing, Haley had two top-five finishes and finished 12 times in the top 10. “Not just a crew chief, but a friend to everyone who knew him,” Haley wrote on Twitter. “I, and everyone at Kaulig Racing are devastated. He will be greatly missed.” Harrison was a veteran crew chief with all three NASCAR national series since 2006. His teams won five Xfinity Series races with drivers Austin Dillon, Paul Menard and Kurt Busch, who were all driving Sunday. “We all lost a friend last night. We love you Nick Harrison. You were a leader, and a great friend to all,” Kurt Busch posted on Twitter. “Nick really helped me rebuild my career when I was at a low point. RIP.” Playoff position Joey Logano was ninth. He has a three-point lead over Kyle Busch in the point standings. Busch, who won the first stage Sunday after qualifying second, finished eighth.

Post 39 reaches championship By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com LANCASTER, Ohio — Proving worthy of their seed. The Meigs Post 39 baseball team find itself in the proverbial cat-bird seat after securing a place in the championship final on Sunday following a climactic 8-7 victory over Lancaster Post 11 in the winner’s bracket final of the American Legion District 8 Tournament held at Beavers Field in Fairfield County. The top-seeded Rangers (14-4) made quick work of McArthur Post 303 on Saturday following a 10-0 decision in the tournament opener, but the hosts needed every drop of seven innings to reach the championship round after scoring four times in the bottom of the seventh to wrap up the one-run triumph. Trailing 7-4 headed into their final at-bat of regulation, Post 39 needed only seven batters to complete the improbable comeback — using three hits, two walks and one big error to rally its way into Monday night’s championship contest. Cole Arnott started the rally with a leadoff double, then advanced to third and also scored on a pair of passed balls — cutting the deficit down to two. With one away, Billy Harmon drew a walk and advanced to second on a single by Carter Smith. Briar Wolfe followed by reaching on an error that allowed Harmon to come home as Smith advanced to third — putting runners on the corners in a one-run contest. Cleanup hitter Brody Jeffers received a walk to load the bases, then Cooper Peters provided the heroics with a single to left that allowed both Smith and Wolfe to come home with the gametying and game-clinching scores. With the victory, the Rangers now await the winner of the loser’s bracket final between Lancaster Post 11 and Utica Post 92 — which will be played at 5:30 p.m. Monday night at Beavers Field. Post 39 is scheduled to hit the field at 7:30 p.m. Monday night for the championship game. If the Rangers lose, they will play again at 7 p.m. Tuesday in a one-game, winner-take-all matchup against Monday night’s opponent. Meigs Post 39 led 2-1 through two innings of play, but the guests rallied by scoring the next four runs over a threeinning span en route to a 5-2 advantage. Post 11 took the first lead in the top of the second as Nathan Pechar singled in Lane Kastely for a 1-0 edge. Post 39 responded in its half of the second as Arnott singled home both Mason Hanning Colton Reynolds catches a pop out during a July 16 American Legion baseball game against Beverly-Lowell at Meigs High School in Rocksprings, Ohio. and Wes Smith with two away, giving the hosts a 2-1 lead after two complete. Lancaster Post 11 retired 10 straight from that point and recaptured the lead in the top of the third as two hits, two errors and a sacrifice fly resulted in a 4-2 contest. Post 11 added another run in the fifth on a Kastely two-out single that plated Fyffe for a 5-2 cushion. The Rangers closed the gap down to a single run in the bottom of the sixth after scoring twice as Ben Wolfe singled home Harmon, then Wolfe came around on a Jeffers double with one away. Lancaster Post 11, however, tacked on two runs in the top of the seventh while again establishing a three-run edge. Fyffe singled home Trey Henry with two away, then Fyffe eventually scored on a Kastely single that made it 7-4 entering the home half of the seventh.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. (AP) — For Mariano Rivera, it was the culmination of a storied career, dreams of being the next Pelé long since forgotten. For Brandy Halladay, the Baseball Hall of Fame induction ceremony was a tearful moment to reflect on the accomplishments of her late husband, and she handled a difficult task admirably. Rivera, the career saves leader and the first player unanimously voted into the Hall by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America, was greeted by chants of his name from the adoring crowd as he stepped to the podium in a fitting close to Sunday’s ceremony. He spoke in both English and at the end in Spanish, rarely looking down at the speech he had prepared. “I think I choose that because sometimes you write words and it doesn’t sound right,” Rivera said. “But when you come from the heart, it comes right. My intention was always to speak from the heart.” Rivera and fellow closer Lee Smith, starters Mike Mussina and Roy Halladay, and designated hitters Edgar Martinez and Harold Baines were feted on a sun-splashed afternoon in Cooperstown. A crowd estimated at 55,000, the secondlargest for an induction ceremony, quickly made Rivera feel at peace. “You’re special for me,” said Rivera, who left his native Panama in 1990 unable to speak English. “Thank you for your help. Latin American fans, thank you. Thank you for loving me. I’m so humbled and blessed to receive this incredible honor. God bless you all.” As a child, Rivera dreamed of being a soccer player in the mold Lowry Lowry, who teamed with McIlroy to bring Irish golf a European Amateur title in 2007, and who From page 6 won the Irish Open as an amateur 10 years ago.

He pitched 19 seasons in the major leagues, all with the New York Yankees, and retired with 952 games finished — also a record. A 13-time AllStar, Rivera helped the Yankees win five World Series titles and seven American League pennants. “To the fans, you guys always pushed me to be the best,” he said. “When I was at Yankee Stadium pitching, it felt like I was pitching with 55,000 people throwing one pitch after another. Without your support, I cannot do it. You guys came to see me succeed.” Brandy Halladay fought back tears as she spoke for her late husband, who had two sons. “I knew I was going to cry at some point. It’s overwhelming the amount of people here today,” she said, tears welling in her eyes, her voice quavering with emotion. “I’m so grateful you’re here. I can’t tell you how many hugs I’ve gotten. There are not enough words to thank you. “I know how honored Roy would be to be sitting here with such accomplished men. Thank you for being such a good example to him and to supporting him in his career. This is not my speech to give.” The son of a commercial pilot, Roy Halladay was 40 when he was killed in a plane crash in November 2017 into the Gulf of Mexico while piloting his own plane alone off the Florida coast 20 miles from his home. A toxicology report showed high levels of amphetamines and morphine in his system and hints of an antidepressant. “I think that Roy would want everyone to know that people are not perfect,” Brandy said. “We are all imperfect and flawed in one way or another. We all struggle, but with hard work, humility and dedication, imperfect people can still have perfect moments. Roy was blessed in his life and in his career to have some perfect moments.” A two-time Cy Young Award winner, Halladay amassed a 203-105 record in a 16-year career with Toronto and Philadelphia. He became just the second pitcher in major league history to throw a nohitter in the postseason, opening the 2010 NL Division Series with one against the Cincinnati Reds in the first playoff start of his career. He also pitched a perfect game that season. Halladay was elected in his first year on the ballot. “Of course he would be honored and humbled,” Brandy Halladay said. “He was a true competitor. He went to the field every day ready to do whatever it took to give his team the best possible chance to win. I think Roy would rather be remembered by who he was, not what he did on the ballfield. He so desperately wanted to be as great and successful at home as he was in baseball.” The family decided that there would be no logo on his plaque because both organizations meant a lot to Halladay.

(AP) — An exclusive golf course in northern Michigan has changed its website to no longer encourage players to hit balls into Lake Michigan after a diver hired by a newspaper found hundreds in the water. State environmental regulators said they’re investigating what has occurred at Arcadia Bluffs, where a round of golf on the course overlooking the northeastern shore of the lake costs $215 during the peak summer season. A beverage cart employee said she was fired for discouraging players from hitting balls into the lake. Experts say golf balls are made of plastic and rubber and eventually will break down in Lake Michigan. The Detroit Free Press said it hired diver Chris Roxburgh to check the water beyond the 12th tee, which overlooks the lake.

There’s no benefit to it. … It’s kind of hedonism,” said Mike Shriberg, executive director of the National Wildlife Federation’s Great Lakes Regional Center. A description of the 12th hole on the Arcadia Bluffs website used to encourage golfers to hit a ball into the water before striking a tee shot by saying: “Go ahead and do it, everyone does.” The newspaper said that was dropped from the website last week. “Thank you for drawing our attention to this outdated reference,” Arcadia Bluffs president William Shriver told the Free Press. “We certainly do not want to encourage the practice of hitting golf balls into Lake Michigan.” (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYMENT MOTOR ROUTE 7KH %XFNH\H +LOOV &DUHHU &HQWHU is accepting applications for the following part-time positions: Practical Nursing Clinical Instructor (Rate $31.26), Welding Instructor (Rate $22.29 - $24.70), STNA Instructor (Rate $22.29-$24.70), Fire Fighter Instructor (Rate $22.29-$24.70).

Separately, Sara Padden, who sold beverages from a cart at No. 12, said she was fired in June after telling golfers that hitting balls into the lake would harm the environment.

We’ve seen it even when he’s been on the team. “That’s got to be a position of strength even if it’s not one player but multiple players doing different roles. There were times in my career before that where we had similar approaches. No one’s going to make any excuses for our offense, we’re going to do everything we can to be the best we can be, score every time we touch the ball, and the tight end position’s a big part of our offense and those guys are going to have to do a great job for us.” Those guys include veteran Ben Watson, who also was ready for retirement before opting to come back to New England. But Gronk’s absence is the most critical difference for last season’s champions. Associated Press Until the NFL shortens its preseason, there will be one goal in late July and early August. Stay healthy. Unfortunately, nearly every team sustains significant injuries, some of which can be devastating for the regular season. Coaches and general managers will curse under their breath when they lose a key regular, then claim the “next man up” policy will take care of the problem. Sometimes, they are right. Often, the swearing becomes more intense and louder. As teams settle in at sweltering training camps this week, playbooks are distributed (digitally, of course), rookies and other youngsters try to catch the eye of decision makers, and fans wonder what their teams will look like in early September. And beyond. Except, perhaps, in New England. Some things to keep an eye on until the Packers and Bears kick off on Sept. 5 to open the league’s 100th season. :HGQHVGD\V�‡�����SP� 39+�1XUVLQJ�$GPLQLVWUDWLRQ�2I²�FH Are you an RN, LPN, Nursing Assistant or Medical Assistant?

Bruce Arians, Buccaneers — One of two hires with previous head coaching experience (Adam Gase is the other), Arians is charged with developing the talent and instilling maturity in Jameis Winston. The quarterback never has lived up to his top overall draft pick status, but if anyone can push Winston toward elite status, it is QB whisperer Arians. Brian Flores, Dolphins — For a while, it looked as if Miami was ready to tank this season as it reorganizes from top to bottom. But this is not the worst roster in the league. Still, Flores has to prove a Belichick protege can succeed as a head coach. Matt LaFleur, Packers — Aaron Rodgers isn’t the easiest superstar passer to work with, so keep an eye on the transition in Cheesehead Land. The offense should be pretty good if A-Rod is healthy, so the biggest chore is upgrading a previously unreliable defense. Zac Taylor, Bengals — Good luck, Zac. The Bengals have the weakest talent group in the AFC North, with even their stars such as A.J. Green and Geno Atkins carrying big question marks. Of course, if Taylor ever wins one postseason game, he will have outdone Marvin Lewis. Freddie Kitchens, Browns — The idea here is that Kitchens, QB Baker Mayfield and wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will blend their skills and personalities to create a dynamic offense.
