Hart plead guilty to four counts brought against him in a April grand jury indictment. Hart, 35, of Rutland, plead guilty to three counts of burglary and one count of safecraking in connection with crimes committed in March of this year. One count of burglary was charged as a felony of the second degree, while the other two counts of burglary were amened to felonies of the third degree. Safecracking is a felony of the fourth degree. The burglaries occurred on Dexter Road in Langsville on March 18 at the residence of E. Paul Anderson; on Salem School Lot Road in Albany on March 23 at the residence of Stacy and Jimmy Stewart; and on Larkin Street in Rutland on March 25 at the home of Lois George. The charge of safecraking took place at Hart’s address on March 29 according to court documents. Hart will also serve time on a probation violation resulting from a 2011 case of forgery. According to the plea agreement, Hart would serve six years on the second count of burglary and three years each on the first and third count of burglary to be served consecutively. In addition, one year on the count of safecraking and the time from the probation violation would be served concurrently. At the time of Hart’s arrest in early April, Sheriff Robert Beegle reported that Stewart’s step-son, who was in the basement living area at the time of the incident, surprised the burglar causing him to flee. Beegle also stated that two safes were taken from the George residence during the burglary of that residence.

This project’s goal is to provide teachers with training that will increase their own science content knowledge and classroom practices, and to then have this positive teacher change translate into improved student achievement in science. Funding for this project was awarded through the Improving Teacher Quality Program administered by the Ohio Board of Regents, and the URG proposal was among the 24 projects awarded funding out of more than 40 applicants. Training activities will include five content-focused workshop days facilitated by Dr. Jacob White, Associate Professor of Chemistry, and Dr. Rob Hopkins, Assistant Professor of Biology. This workshop, which will take place in late summer, will primarily focus on Earth and Space Sciences topics as they relate to the state science standards in the elementary and middle school grades. In addition to the workshop training, the project will also support on-site instructional coaching sessions with the individual participants that will take place throughout the 20122013 school year. Teachers will have the opportunity to work one-on-one in their classrooms with retired master teachers from the area who will serve as science coaches. The grant will also support science-focused family night events at each school building that is participating in the project.

Ask Dr. Brothers Email intrudes even on vacation Dear Dr. Brothers: My boyfriend and I went away for a week, but I was disappointed that he was constantly interrupted by emails from his work, and he never seemed quite able to relax and enjoy our trip. I have a job I love working with young children, and email isn’t part of my day, nor does it intrude on my private time after hours or when I’m away. Is it unreasonable of me to ask my boyfriend to turn off his cell phone or somehow ignore the emails when we are together? I’m getting depressed. — S.S. Dear S.S.: It seems that the two of you are polar opposites when it comes to the demands of your job and the way you identify and handle stress. While you find comfort in being totally away from work when you are not required to be there, it doesn’t have anything but a positive impact on how you perform or feel about your job. Your boyfriend may be required by the demands of his work to stay in touch. Although it is not what you and I call relaxing, his comfort may be disrupted by a fear of missing something. Asking him to cut back for the sake of your relationship may not be something he’s willing or able to do. Try not to take it personally, but it’s fair to let him know that you’re unhappy. The idea of taking a vacation from email was studied recently by researchers at the University of California at Irvine and the U.S. Army. They studied the vital signs of two groups of Dr. Joyce Brothers Syndicated Columnist civilian employees at an Army facility and found that those with email were constantly on alert, and switched windows on their computer twice as often as those who didn’t receive mail. Both groups completed their computerized tasks, but the ones without email apparently were less stressed. You can focus on this goal for you and your boyfriend. Good luck! *** Dear Dr. Brothers: I have a situation. I met a woman who uses the same day-care center I do, and she invited me over for a play date for our two toddlers. When I went to her home, it was like a fortress, set up with every babyproofing gadget you could think of. There were locks on every cabinet door, padding on all the furniture and I couldn’t even get the toilet seat open! We don’t have anything but a baby gate or two. Should I invite this over-the-top mom here anyway? — L.W. Dear L.W.: It must have been quite a shock for you to see the way another family handles the baby-safety issues around their home, since you are so much less anxious about things like that. I suppose that it can all be chalked up to different parenting styles, and that there are things you and the other mother have in common that draw you together. It seems a shame that you would be wary of inviting this woman over because you don’t agree with her safety measures. But I also understand that there could be a sense of alarm on her part when she visits. Your friend probably will want to keep a very close eye on her child, and you may find the play date deteriorating into one focused on security issues. That said, you might as well give it a try — she could feel right at home with you after all. When she sees how your child can navigate through his world without barriers, she probably will relax and let her toddler take his chances outside the fortress, too. But it would be polite to tell her ahead of time that you feel your home is safe without babyproofing, in case she’s the extra-nervous type that she appears to be. In the meantime, take a cue from her and make sure you really haven’t overlooked any major safety issues in favor of a laid-back approach.

Yahoo turns to former Local student makes honors list nemesis to be its CEO savior PARKERSBURG —Sherry Riffle of Racine, who is in a medical assistant program at the Mountain State College, made the president’s list for the spring term. In order to qualify for the list, she had to earn a grade point average of 3.5 or above. NYC bus driver catches girl who fell three stories NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City bus driver was being hailed as a hero for saving a 7-year-old girl who fell three stories from an air conditioning unit outside a Brooklyn building. “I just prayed that I’d catch her,” Stephen St. Bernard recalled after rescuing the child on Monday. “‘Please let me catch her, please let me catch her.’ That’s all I could say,” he added. St. Bernard said he was walking home from work when he observed a commotion outside the Coney Island housing complex. He saw the girl standing on the air conditioning unit, seemingly unafraid and moving about. It wasn’t clear how she got there, but witnesses told the Daily News that she crawled out by pulling aside the unit’s accordion-like plastic partitions that keep the air conditioner secured in the window. An amateur video shows St. Bernard yelling up to the girl, telling her to go back inside when she suddenly falls and he catches her in his arms. “I picked her up and carried her. … She kept looking around. She never closed her eyes. She never lost consciousness,” he said. The girl was taken to a Coney Island hospital with minor injuries. St. Bernard, a father of four, suffered a torn tendon in his shoulder. Neighbors said the girl was a special needs child. Police said no charges were filed against the parents. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — As a top executive at Google for the past 13 years, Marissa Mayer played an instrumental role in developing many of the services that have tormented Yahoo as its appeal waned among Web surfers, advertisers and investors. Now, Yahoo is turning to its longtime nemesis to fix everything that has gone wrong while Google Inc. has been cementing its position as the Internet’s most powerful company. Mayer, 37, will tackle the imposing challenge Tuesday when she takes over as Yahoo’s fifth CEO in the past five years. The surprise hiring announced late Monday indicates Yahoo still believes it can be an Internet innovator instead of merely an online way station where people pass through to read a news story or watch a video clip before moving on to more compelling Internet destinations. “I just saw a huge opportunity to have a global impact on users and really help the company in terms of managing its portfolio, attracting great talent and really inspiring and delighting people,” Mayer said during a Monday interview with The Associated Press. Like her predecessors, Mayer will have to come up with an effective strategy to compete with the juggernaut that Google has become and the increasingly influential force that Facebook Inc. is turning into as more people immerse themselves in its social network. Both Google, the Internet’s search leader, and Facebook have been beating Yahoo Inc. in the battle for Web surfers’ attention and advertisers’ marketing budgets. As Yahoo has lagged in that pivotal race, so has its financial performance and stock price. The stock has been slumping since Yahoo Inc. balked at a chance to sell itself to Microsoft Corp. for $47.5 billion, or $33 per share, in May 2008. Yahoo shares haven’t traded above $20 since September 2008. The announcement came after the market closed Monday. On Tuesday, it lost 3 cents to $15.62 in midday trading. “If she can pull this off and turn around Yahoo, it will make her legacy,” Gartner Inc. analyst Allen Weiner said of Mayer. “Yahoo’s iconic yodel has been missing for a long time. Her mission will be to bring that yodel back.” This will be the first time that Mayer has run a company as she steps out of the long shadow cast by the Google’s ruling triumvirate — co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, along with Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt. Although she had her responsibilities at Google narrowed two years ago, Mayer is still widely considered to among the Internet industry’s brightest executives. A Wisconsin native, Mayer is a mathematics whiz with a sponge-like memory and a keen eye for design. Mayer joined Google in 1999 as its 20th employee and went on to play an integral role in helping Page and Brin exploit their online search technology to outmaneuver Yahoo at a time when it was still the larger of the two companies. Now, it takes Google a little more than a month to generate as much revenue as Yahoo does in an entire year. During Google’s rise, Mayer helped oversee the development and design of the company’s popular email, online mapping and news services. She also became a topic of Silicon Valley gossip during Google’s early years while she dated Page for three years. They have since gotten married to other people. “We will miss her talents,” Page, now Google’s CEO, said in a statement. In another statement, Schmidt hailed Mayer as “a great product person, very innovative and a real perfectionist who always wants the best for users. Yahoo has made a great choice.” Mayer becomes one of the most prominent women executives in Silicon Valley, a place whose geeky culture has been dominated by men for decades. This is Yahoo’s second female CEO, though. Silicon Valley veteran Carol Bartz, 63, spent more than two-and-half years as Yahoo’s CEO before she was fired last September. Within a few months, Mayer expects to be on a maternity leave. In another interview late Monday, Mayer revealed to Fortune magazine that she is pregnant with a boy. Her due date is Oct. 7. She said she had informed Yahoo’s board about her pregnancy before the 11 directors unanimously voted to hire her. Other prominent female executives in Silicon Valley include Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO Meg Whitman and another former top Google executive, Sheryl Sandberg, who defected to a rival when she joined Facebook as that company’s chief operating officer in 2008. Other female CEOs running major technology companies include IBM Corp.’s Virginia “Ginni” Rometty and Xerox Corp.’s Ursula Burns. Yahoo picked Mayer over an internal candidate, Ross Levinsohn, who had been widely considered to be the frontrunner for the job after stepping in to fill a void created two months ago when the company dumped Scott Thompson as CEO amid a flap over misinformation on his official biography. Thompson’s bio inaccurately said he had college degree in computer science — an accomplishment that Mayer can rightfully list on her resume. She earned a master’s in computer science at Stanford University, the same school where the co-founders from both Google and Yahoo honed their engineering skills. 60336288 WWW.MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM/CREATECONNECTPROMOTE 60334888 �The Daily Sentinel Opinion Romney proposed ‘foolproof ’ death penalty in Mass. Steve LeBlanc Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — As Massachusetts governor, Republican Mitt Romney set himself a daunting challenge: craft a death penalty law that virtually guaranteed only the guilty could be executed, then push it through an overwhelmingly Democratic state Legislature that was leery of capital punishment. Making the task even more difficult, the push by Romney — who is now running for president — came in 2005 at a time of growing national skepticism about the death penalty. Just two years earlier, Illinois Gov. George Ryan had cleared his state’s death row after the death sentences of several inmates had been overturned. Romney decided to tackle that skepticism by coming up with what he said would be a “gold standard for the death penalty in the modern scientific age.” In trying to set a new and higher bar, Romney also was chasing two political goals. The first was to fulfill a promise, made during his 2002 run for governor, to try to reinstate the death penalty in Massachusetts, then one of a dozen states that had banned the punishment. The second was to burnish his conservative resume as he looked ahead to 2008 and his first run for president. “We believe that the capital punishment bill that we put forward is not only right for Massachusetts, but it’s a model for the nation,” Romney said at the time, in comments similar to what he said about his overhaul of the state health insurance system. That law became a blueprint for the sweeping federal health care overhaul enacted by President Barack Obama, which has become an issue in the White House race. Romney’s handling of the death penalty issue opened a window into the type of management style he could bring to the White House if elected. He hand-picked a commission and outlined his goals in broad terms. Then he turned the panel’s recommendations into a bill that ultimately failed to get through the Legislature. But his decision to fight an uphill battle on an issue that had begun to lose its urgency also showed Romney wasn’t afraid of a political fight. His first step was to pull together a panel of legal scholars, prosecutors, crime lab officials, a medical geneticist and criminologist Henry Lee, who played a key role in the O.J. Simpson murder trial and other highly publicized cases. One of those heading up the panel was Joseph Hoffmann, a law professor at Indiana University’s Maurer School of Law. Hoffman said Romney gave the group a free hand, but suggested they focus on harnessing “the power of science” to improve on death penalty laws in other states. “He said ‘this is completely up to you.’ We were given an amazing amount of discretion and leeway,” Hoffman said. “He wanted us to be free to discuss this, talk about it and propose any ideas, any improvement, any processes that would make this the best death penalty anyone had ever proposed.” The bill Romney filed adopted many of the panel’s recommendations. It limited capital punishment to the “worst of the worst” crimes — including terrorism, the murder of police officers, murder involving torture and the killing of witnesses — and required a “no doubt” standard of guilt. It outlined a series of safeguards, including a requirement that physical evidence, such as DNA, directly link the defendant to the crime scene. Lethal injection was the specified method of execution. The bill also mandated an additional review of evidence before an execution could be carried out. Every death penalty case would have separate juries for trial and sentencing. Part of Massachusetts’ reluctance to impose death sentences comes from its rocky history with the penalty. One of the most controversial cases involved the executions of Italian immigrants Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who were put to death in 1927 after being convicted of killing two people during a robbery. Many observers, then and now, say the trial focused unfairly on their anarchist political beliefs and immigrant status. The state abolished capital punishment in 1984.

But by 2005, lawmakers had again begun to turn away from the death penalty. Some cited human error and prejudice among reasons to steer clear of reinstating it. “Errors have been made and will continue to be made,” Rep. John Keenan, a Democrat and descendant of one of the victims of the Salem witch trials, said during debate over the bill. Even Romney conceded the possibility of human fallibility during a public hearing on the measure. “A 100 percent guarantee? I don’t think there’s such a thing in life. Except perhaps death — for all of us,” Romney said, although he described the proposal “as foolproof a death penalty as exists.” Others saw political motives in Romney’s efforts. “There was no way the Massachusetts Legislature was going to pass a death penalty bill,” state Rep. David Linsky, a Democrat who opposed Romney’s bill and had helped investigate or prosecute about 25 murder cases as an assistant district attorney, said in an interview. “It was all about setting up his future conservative credentials outside Massachusetts.” Others, including many Republican and moderate Democrats backed the measure, however. But the bill was defeated on a 99-to-53 vote in the House after more than four hours of impassioned debate. Not all the criticism of Romney’s proposal came from death penalty foes. Some conservatives said his plan was so narrowly drawn and had so many layers of safeguards that it would be virtually impossible to carry out an execution under it. Now running for president a second time, Romney hasn’t spent time touting the death penalty proposal. He prefers to focus the debate on the issue his campaign believes offers him the best chance of winning in November: the economy. Page 4 Wednesday, July 18, 2012 It’s time to seriously tackle the money behind the drug cartels Rafael Espada and Raymond Baker Several Latin American leaders have proposed legalizing aspects of the drug trade in recent months, clearly acknowledging that the current strategy in the war on drugs is not working. They are correct in highlighting the flaws in the traditional approach to battling illicit narcotics, but do we really need to wave the white flag? Or do alternative approaches still exist to curtail the illicit drug trade? The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime in Vienna estimates that globally more than forty percent of cocaine is seized somewhere between production and consumption. It also estimates, however, that less than one half of one percent of laundered criminal money is interdicted worldwide. For too long, the focus of the Drug Enforcement Administration and other law enforcement bodies has been on drug busts, while remarkably little has been done to curtail the money financing these illicit operations. We’ve been battling the symptoms without truly addressing the underlying cause. Curtail the money behind drug smuggling and we will curtail the crime itself. The United States has already proven its ability to quickly and decisively tackle illicit financing when it puts its mind to it. After September 11, 2001, the USA Patriot Act included considerably strengthened anti-money laundering legislation, for example, banning shell banks— and any banks doing business with shell banks—from operating within the U.S. financial system. This and other measures made it more difficult for terrorist financing to circulate in the legitimate financial system, and consequentially executing large-scale terrorist attacks has become much more difficult. We can do the same with drug money; it’s simply a matter of political will. Much of the profit realized by drug cartels in the United States makes its way back into Mexico as cash dollars where it is then smuggled through to Guatemala, El Salvador, and Panama. It subsequently 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. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Letters to the Editor Letters to the editor should be limited to 300 words. All letters are subject to editing, must be signed and include address and telephone number. No unsigned letters will be published. Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. gets deposited in local banks which then ship the physical U.S. dollars back to the United States. Knowing which local branches of these Central American banks accept large cash deposits of U.S. currency would be a critical tool for Central American—and U.S.—law enforcement as they battle the war on drugs. It helps track the drug cartels and crack down on their financing. However, the private, commercial banks currently load the bulk U.S. dollar currency onto airplanes and fly the cash directly back to the United States usually without informing their own Central Bank or law enforcement where they got the money. Global Financial Integrity and others have proposed requiring commercial banks in Central American nations to route these cash transfers through their nation’s Central Bank, which would then relay the money to the destination bank in the United States, thereby allowing the nation’s Central Bank to track the magnitude of the problem and from which banks and branches the money originates. It’s a proposal which has been met with honest consideration in Central America but which has not been implemented due to opposition from the U.S. government. Why is the U.S. government opposing this proposal? Surely the U.S. would benefit significantly from the trove of drug cartel financial data that would result from such an arrangement. Moreover, there are few places in the world where it is easier to open an anonymous shell corporation than inside the United States. These entities, which can be registered by company formation agents possessing sole information as to the real owners, often make it impossible for U.S. and foreign law enforcement agencies to track the finances of the world’s largest drug cartels. They grant the cartels and other financial criminals impunity through anonymity. The bi-partisan Incorporation Transparency and Law Enforcement Assistance Act, which was intro- duced into the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives last fall, would give federal authorities access to this ownership information and contribute to ostracizing drug cartels from the legitimate financial system. Still, even when anti-money laundering rules are in place, it’s extremely important that financial regulators be fully funded and provided the resources they need to ensure banks comply with the law. Citibank, HSBC, and Wachovia have all been in the news recently for allegedly failing to comply with U.S. anti-money laundering regulations. Further, a recent study conducted by the U.K. government found that three quarters of British banks were not adequately complying with anti-money laundering rules. There is no reason to believe the situation is any different at American banks. Ever-shrinking budgets for the nation’s under-staffed financial watchdogs have real consequences: a money laundering Wild West being one of them. Congress must ensure that U.S. regulators are appropriately budgeted with the necessary resources to perform their duties, and the bankers found to be complicit in the laundering of money should receive jail time – merely fining financial institutions is not enough. As we did with terrorists a decade ago, the United States has the ability to deliver a striking blow to drug smugglers—curtailing the money that fuels the entire industry. Before we consider giving up and legalizing drugs, and instead of perpetuating the costly whack-a-mole model of drug busts and seizures, let’s pull the rug out from under the narcotics industry. We can do it if there is political will. Dr. Rafael Espada recently completed a four-year term as Vice President of Guatemala.

Her foot throbbed Tuesday, she said, and she was using crutches to walk. She still had dried blood on her leg. The shots fired so quickly it sounded like automatic gunfire, she said. “There were sparks coming off the ground and then I felt a sting and I knew I’d been hit,” she said. The police chief said 11 people were hit by gunfire and 17 people were taking to the hospital. Most of the injured were hit by bullet fragments or debris, said Brad Fisher, a spokesman at DCH Regional Medical Center. Two people were in intensive care, one in critical condition and the other in serious condition, Fisher said. Three people were in fair condition and the others were treated and released. At least three injured were university students. Outside the bar Tuesday, pools of blood were still visible and a trail of bloody footprints could be seen on the sidewalk for about two blocks leading away from the nightclub. Elizabeth Walters was inside the Copper Top when the shooting started. “It sounded like it would never end,” Walters said. “There was a lull and then it started up again.” After the shooting ended, the music in the bar continued to play for several minutes until someone turned it off.

Visit us at TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Police searched on Tuesday for a gunman who fired into a crowded downtown bar near the University of Alabama campus, hitting nearly a dozen people and critically wounding one. The gunman stood outside of the bar for a few moments, targeted someone inside and fired through a window, Tuscaloosa Police Chief Steve Anderson said. Customers inside the Copper Top bar ran outside or crawled away, and the gunman opened fire again with a military-style assault weapon. Police were looking into whether the rampage at 12:30 a.m. Tuesday was connected to a shooting about 45 minutes earlier at a home just a couple of miles away. Two people who lived there were involved in that shooting, and one was wounded, Anderson said. Police were not sure exactly what prompted the shootings. They have a description of the bar gunman, but authorities were not sure who he was. Surveillance video showed him walking with the weapon near the nightclub, and police were working with the FBI to enhance the recording. Witnesses at the bar described a bloody and chaotic scene, with glass and debris flying around the nightclub. Rachel Studdard was sitting on a patio with a group of friends, enjoying 50-cent draft beer when the shooting started. “We heard firecracker sounds. All of a sudden somebody was like, ‘Is that gunfire?’” said Studdard, who recently graduated a two-year college and plans to attend the �������� �� �� �� � � ��� ���������������� � ������� ������ ������� BURIED in CREDIT CARDDEBT?

Mike Wolfe (176) Woods ready for softer test LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England (AP) — Tiger Woods’ last trip to northwest England for the British Open ended in a two-shot win at Royal Liverpool. That was six years ago, and it seems even longer. It was his first major after the death of his father, and he sobbed on the shoulder of his caddie and his wife, both of whom are no longer with him. There was no discussion about No. 1 in the world because Woods’ point average was nearly double that of Phil Mickelson. Now it’s a matter of getting back. The good news for Woods is that the British Open is the first major since the 2011 Masters that he has a mathematical chance to return to No. 1 in the world. At this time a year ago, he was No. 19 and at home in Florida letting his leg injuries heal. Only it’s not that simple. Woods now has gone four years since winning his last major, and he conceded Tuesday that they are not getting any easier to win. Fifteen players have won the last 15 majors, the longest stretch without a multiple winner since 1993 to 1998. But when asked whether he was feeling any anxiety over when he will win another major, Woods simply shook his head. “I just try and put myself there,” Woods said. “I think that if I continue putting myself there enough times, then I’ll win major championships.” The trouble this year has been giving himself chances. If there are questions about the state of his game, look only at the trophies he won at Bay Hill, Muirfield Village and Congressional — more wins than anyone on the PGA Tour, tied with Branden Grace of South Africa for most worldwide. But the majors have been a disappointment. Woods had his worst finish as a pro at the Masters (tie for 40th), then vanished on the See WOODS ‌| 7 Jim McIsaac/Newsday/MCT photo The Cincinnati Reds’ Joey Votto flips his bat after striking out in the first inning against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York, Friday, May 18, 2012.

Their initial move was to replace him with a pitcher, giving themselves a backup plan in case Johnny Cueto’s blister bothered him during his start Tuesday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Beyond that, the NL Central leaders aren’t sure how they’ll try to replace one of the league’s top hitters for up to a month. “You’re bombarding me with questions that I really don’t have answers to right now,” manager Dusty Baker said. “So let’s take it today and then we’ll see what we can do tomorrow. We have things in the works.” Votto’s injury gives the Reds more incentive to try to acquire another hitter to help them stay in contention. There’s no replacement ready in the minors. The first baseman is batting .342 and leads the National League in doubles, walks, on-base percentage and extra-base hits. Votto hurt the knee June 29 while sliding into base, but didn’t think it was a significant injury and kept playing. He started at first base in the AllStar game Tuesday. When the knee began bothering him again over the weekend, he had an MRI on Monday evening that found the tear. He decided to have the surgery now rather than try to keep playing with the injury, which could get worse over time. Baker had a long talk with him about it Monday night. Baker hurt his left knee during his playing career but chose not to have surgery, which wasn’t as advanced then. The knee caused him problems the rest of his career. “I just expressed some of the things the doctor expressed to him,” Baker said. “Mine was a little different issue, where I didn’t get mine done. I went through a number of cortisone shots and played my last 10 years when I should have had it done right away.” The Reds put Votto on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday and called up right-hander Todd Redmond from Triple-A Louisville. The Reds got Redmond from Atlanta on Saturday for shortstop Paul Janish in a swap of minor leaguers. Redmond was with Triple-A Gwinnett playing against Louisville when the trade was completed. He switched clubhouses, finished the series with his new team, then went to Columbus, Ohio, for a series when the Reds called him up. “It’s real exciting, especially with the last couple of days — getting traded, switching dugouts and looking at my team on the other side,” Redmond said. Cueto developed a blister on the index finger of his pitching hand while throwing in the bullpen over the AllStar break. The Reds pushed his start back two days to give it time to heal. Starter Bronson Arroyo lasted only three innings in a 5-3 loss to Arizona on Monday night, forcing Baker to use his bullpen. With questions about Cueto’s blister, the Reds decided to bring up another pitcher for the night. “I was in the bullpen deep and early yesterday, so we need some innings,” Baker said. “We’ve got a couple of guys who have thrown two of three days or three out of four days.” Final table set for WSOP main event LAS VEGAS (AP) — The final table for the 2012 World Series of Poker main event has been set. The field was whittled down to the final nine early Tuesday, with Jesse Sylvia of West Tisbury, Mass., holding the chip lead with more than 44 million chips. “I feel amazing, I can’t believe this is happening,” said Sylvia, who started play on Monday in 13th place. “I’m going to take a step back and let this soak in.” The tournament now takes a break until Oct. 28, when play begins to determine a champion. Play in the $10,000 buy-in tournament began July 7 with 6,598 entrants. The top prize is more than $8.5 million. Overall, the top seven finishers will win at least $1 million. Asked how he would spend his time during the break, Sylvia said: “I think the first month I’m going to party with all my friends and the second month will be spent resting. The third month I will take my time and do some research on my opponents, I’ll try to find out more about the other players’ tendencies.” Andras Koroknai of Hungary finished in second place with nearly 30 million chips and Greg Merson finished third with nearly 29 million. “I’m ecstatic and not a bit tired despite the length of play,” Koroknai said through his translator. “My goal during the tournament was to eliminate any player I could.” Merson will be the only player at the final table who has won a world series bracelet and he did that just over one week ago, winning the $10,000 sixhanded no-limit hold ‘em event. “I can’t believe I won a bracelet just a week ago,” said Merson. “I was so tired it didn’t even seem real. The amount of play really starts to wear on you.” The final nine players logged nearly 70 total hours of poker play during this tournament alone. Joining the top three players at the final table will be Russell Thomas of Hartford, Conn., Steven Gee of Sacramento, Calif., Michael Esposito of Seaford, NY, Robert Salaburu of San Antonio, Jacob Balsiger of Tempe, Ariz., and Jeremy Ausmus of Las Vegas. �Wednesday, July 18, 2012 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page 7 Barack Obama takes in Olympic basketball tune-ups Briefs From Page 6 ing to play a fall sport at Gallia Academy must attend a mandatory Fall Sports Orientation at Gallia Academy High School.

Box 48, Bidwell, Woods From Page 6 weekend of the U.S. Open when he was tied for the lead after two rounds at The Olympic Club. He wins one week, he misses the cut the next week. What’s going on? “If I knew the answer, I’d tell you,” Woods said. “But I don’t. I just keep trying to work and keep trying to get better. And I’ve had a few wins this year, which is good. But also I’ve had a few poor performances, as well. So I’m just trying to get better, get more consistent. And that’s something I’m looking forward to in the future.” The immediate future is Royal Lytham & St. Annes. This will be his third time playing the links course, the most for any British Open except St. Andrews. Woods had a 66 in the second round in 1996 as an amateur, a day that convinced him he was ready to turn pro. He made an early charge Sunday in 2001 only to fall back with a triple bogey and tie for 25th, nine shots behind. Lytham was dry and relatively calm by British standards those two times. This year is different. A miserable English summer of rain has left the course green and soft, and the rough so incredibly dense that Woods described some spots as unplayable. That much was evident Tuesday morning on the 10th hole, when he slightly pulled his 3-wood into hillocks covered by thick native grass. Six marshals were looking for his ball. Woods simply walked past them — it was a practice round — and even when he was on the green, the marshals had not abandoned the search. Throw in some wind, and the 206 bunkers that give Lytham its character, and it should be a demanding test. “The rough is more lush. The fairways are softer. The ball is not chasing as much,” Woods said. “This is different. It’s a slower golf course, but still, it has some mounding in it. The bunkers are penal. And it’s just something that we as players are going to have to plod our way around.” When he won his first Open in St. Andrews at 19-under 269, Woods famously went an entire week without hitting out of the bunker. His third claret jug at Royal Liverpool in 2006 was memorable for the fact he only hit driver once in four days, instead chasing a 3-iron down the brown, brittle fairways. It looks like he will employ a similar strategy at Lytham, only the sheer number of bunkers make that a challenge. “This is different,” Woods said. “The bunkers are staggered differently here. There’s some forced carries to where you have to fly it and then stop it or try and skirt past them. You can’t just either lay it up or bomb over the top. There has to be some shape to shots. I think that’s one of the reasons why … the list of champions here have all been just wonderful ball strikers, because you have to be able to shape the golf ball both ways here.” That’s what Woods takes pride in about his improved game. Lytham figures to be as good of a measuring stick as any tournament. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama basked in the glow of the Olympics on Monday, getting a courtside look at LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and other members of USA Basketball. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden took their seats to chants of “U-S-A” at a U.S. men’s Olympic basketball exhibition game against Brazil as the loudspeakers blared Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the U.S.A.,” images that any president running for reelection would relish. “Obviously the talent that we’ve got at this point is unbelievable,” Obama said during a halftime interview on ESPN2. “So there’s no reason that we shouldn’t bring home the gold. We just have to stay focused.” Obama is an avid basketball fan and the tune-up games before the start of the London Olympics allowed him to wrap himself in the Olympic spirit four months before Election Day. His Republican rival, Mitt Romney, is expected to use the Olympics to highlight his leadership role during the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City. Romney, who helped turn around the Salt Lake City Games after they became caught up in a bribery scandal, plans to be in London for the opening ceremonies next week. First lady Michelle Obama will lead the U.S. delegation to the open- Kiwanis Juniors at Cliffside GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Cliffside Golf Club will be hosting the fourth annual Kiwanis Juniors at Cliffside golf tournament at 1 p.m. on Thursday, July 19.

Monday night gave Obama a chance to soak in his favorite sport. The U.S. rallied from an early 10-point deficit to beat Brazil 80-69. After a quick ride to the Verizon Center from the White House, Obama greeted members of the U.S. women’s basketball team on a practice court after their win over Brazil in the first game. “We could not be prouder,” Obama said after hugging Tamika Catchings, Diana Taurasi and other members of the women’s team. The women’s team presented Obama with a red No. 1 USA jersey and a signed basketball. Obama, dressed in a blue jacket and jeans, then walked out before a roaring crowd, shook hands with fans and sat down next to former aide Reggie Love, who played basketball for Duke University. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama even appeared on “Kiss Cam,” the in-house video that spotlights kissing couples during a game break. The Obamas wouldn’t oblige during the first half, despite roars and some boos from the crowd. But in the fourth quarter, “Kiss Cam” peered back on the first couple and the president was ready: He put his arm around his wife and planted a big kiss on the first lady as the crowd roared.

ANNES (AP) — Rory McIlroy went out to dinner a few nights ago at one of this English city’s finer restaurants. He got to enjoy his meal in relative peace, with only a handful of fans pestering him for a picture. Hard to imagine that happening in the approach to last year’s British Open, when Rorymania was at its peak. The kid likes low key a whole lot better. “It’s been lovely just going about my business,” McIlroy said. “It’s been nice to sort of prepare and there’s definitely not the madness that was going on last year.” Back then, the curlyhaired Northern Irishman was coming off his first major victory — a runaway at the U.S. Open — and being heralded as the new face of a game desperate to move past Tiger Woods’ stunning downfall. McIlroy didn’t handle the hype all that well, struggling to a 25th-place finish at Royal St. George’s, then complaining about the dastardly conditions that are as much a part of links golf as the fairways and greens. In what passes for heresy in these parts, he flatly stated, “I’m not a fan of golf tournaments where the outcome is dictated so much by the weather.” When asked if he should adapt his game to become a serious challenger at golf’s oldest major, McIlroy sounded down- right petulant when he said he’d just bide his time until he caught a break with the forecast. “It’s not my sort of golf,” he grumbled. “I’d rather play when it’s 80 degrees and sunny and not much wind.” Looking back, McIlroy knows that he should have held his tongue. “Those comments were just pure frustration,” he conceded. “It was having really high expectations going into it, coming off a major win, and really wanting to play well, get into contention, and not doing that. Then blaming the weather, blaming the draw, blaming my luck, basically. That was just frustration.” Since his eight-stroke win at Congressional, McIlroy hasn’t been much of a factor in the majors. He was 64th at the last PGA Championship in Atlanta, essentially ruining his chances when he made an ill-fated attempt to play a shot off a tree root and wound up spraining his wrist. This year, he tumbled out of contention at the Masters with a 77-76 performance on the weekend, and he didn’t even make the cut trying to defend his U.S. Open title at Olympic. Those struggles on the biggest stages have led some to wonder if McIlroy spent too much time savoring his triumph and not enough time working on his game. After winning at Congressional, he took a month off before showing up at the John D. Simmons/Charlotte Observer/MCT photo Rory McIlroy hts off the 12th fairway during the final round of the Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, Sunday, May 6, 2012. British Open without even bothering to play a competitive round in between. This year, in the midst of missing the cut in four out of five tournaments, he vowed to head to the range to work on his game — only to be photographed hopping a Eurostar train to Paris to watch his girlfriend, tennis star Caroline Wozniacki, play in the French Open. “I’m sure McIlroy wants to try and redeem himself a little bit,” said Tony Jacklin, a Hall of Famer who won the 1969 British Open. “I don’t mean it in an unkind way. We had great expectations earlier this year at Augusta and the U.S. Open and it didn’t come to much for him. He is a precocious talent.” With plenty of time to grow and mature. McIlroy is still just 23 years old, and he’s quick to point out that he’s played well enough to climb to the top of the world rankings three different times since his U.S. Open victory. Even now, while admittedly mired in a bit of a slump, he’s still holding down the No. 2 spot behind Luke Donald. “There’s never been any distractions,” McIlroy insisted. “I don’t think my game completely went off. Everyone has bad spells and I had a couple of bad weeks where I didn’t play so well. But it’s just a little blip in the radar and I feel like I’m swinging well again. And I feel like this will be a great week to play well.” As if to show his commitment to go the extra mile preparing for Royal Lytham & St. Annes, McIlroy played three weeks ago at the Irish Open, giving him a taste of links golf and persnickety conditions. He made it to the weekend and wound up 10th. “I felt like I played well in the bad conditions,” McIlroy said. “If it’s like that again this week, you’re just going to have to knuckle down and focus and keep fighting and stay tough and try and shoot a score in bad conditions.” He’s also done some training with the Ulster Rugby Club and one of his best friends, Darren Cave. These days, McIlroy acknowledges that a lack of preparation doomed him more than the conditions at Royal St. George’s. He had planned to tune up at the French Open (the golf version), but dropped out to focus on all his media and sponsor demands. Not exactly the way to get ready for a major championship. “There were so many requests coming in and so many things to do,” McIlroy recalled. “I knew if I went to the French Open my mind wouldn’t be fully on it, so that’s why I didn’t go in the end. But in hindsight it would have been good to get that extra competitive week.” He went on to say, “Obviously the hype and everything was so big last year, as well, and, yeah, maybe it had a little bit to do with it. But at the end of the day, I just didn’t play well enough to figure in the tournament.” Sounds like young Rory might be growing up a bit. Former UNC coach Davis hoping to coach again CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) — Butch Davis wants to be a head coach again. North Carolina fired him last July amid a series of embarrassing revelations during an NCAA investigation of his football program. The school said there was too much damage for him to stay even though he wasn’t linked to a violation, and now he’s working as a consultant with an NFL team hoping to become a head coach again. “I would love to think that the things we’ve accomplished over 37 years, that this one particular deal will not define me as a man nor as a coach,” he said in an interview with The Associated Press. The former University of Miami and Cleveland Browns coach said he tried to build a reputation of “someone that people can believe in, somebody that people can trust.” He pointed to his success rebuilding a Hurricanes program racked by NCAA sanctions into a power that won the 2001 national championship the year after he joined the Browns. However, Davis is still involved in a public records fight with media outlets seeking his personal cellphone records. The outlets, including the AP, have argued he used his phone for job duties instead of his univer- sity phone. His attorney has said the records aren’t public records, though Davis — who said he’d release them before he was fired — wouldn’t object to a judge reviewing them to protect the privacy of friends and professional contacts. The school has said outside counsel reviewed Davis’ records and found “nothing of concern.” A hearing is scheduled for Thursday. Davis is fighting to rebuild his reputation, which was tarnished by the investigation of improper benefits and academic misconduct at UNC. The only career opportunity currently on the table is working as a “special assistant” to Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano, a former Davis assistant at Miami. But Davis is ready for the next round of job openings, armed with the NCAA’s March ruling that doesn’t cite him for wrongdoing. Dick Baddour, UNC’s former athletic director who hired Davis in 2006, said that report will help. He even called schools supporting Davis for jobs last fall and is willing to do it again. “I hope Butch gets another chance,” Baddour said. “I believe he will get another chance. I think he deserves another opportunity at the collegiate level.” The infractions, including players taking jewelry from outside the program and receiving improper assistance on papers, touched Davis only by occurring on his watch. When he fired Davis, Chancellor Holden Thorp said he didn’t believe Davis knew of the violations, including by a tutor who had worked previously with Davis’ teenage son and an assistant tied to an NFL agent. Since the firing wasn’t “for cause,” it could cost $2.7 million by 2015 in contractual obligations unless Davis gets another coaching position. Seven months later, the NCAA imposed a one-year bowl ban and additional scholarship reductions (15 total) on top of self-imposed school penalties that included 16 vacated wins from 2008 and 2009, and probation. “The timing of the dismissal made everybody look like the other shoe was going to drop: ‘Why would they do it a week before the start of the season? There’s got to be something,’” Davis said. “And you can say to people that, ‘Well, here’s what I know: I’m not going to be named in the allegations when it comes out.’ But now it’s us sitting here having to wait … to finally prove in writing what we had been saying all along.” Davis, 60, said he wanted UNC to be his final coaching stop. Instead, he’ll watch Southern Mississippi’s Miscellaneous Robert Willett/Raleigh News & Observer/MCT photo Two days after “fully and completely” accepting responsibility for the crisis that led to an NCAA investigation into his program, Butch Davis is out as North Carolina’s football coach. Here, Davis is seen at the Music City Bowl in Nashville, Tennessee, on December 30, 2010. Larry Fedora take over this fall with a roster that includes his son, Drew, as a walk-on freshman quarterback. Davis’ wife, Tammy, described the past two years as “excruciating.” She said investigations by the NCAA, school and North Carolina Secretary of State’s office — which reviewed whether state sports agent laws were broken — would’ve uncovered any wrongdoing by her husband and that he was punished for others’ misdeeds. Davis has denied any connection to the school’s investigation into the Department of African and AfroAmerican Studies (AFAM). The probe found fraud and poor oversight in 54 classes between summer 2007 and summer 2011, with football players representing 36 percent of enrollments. �Wednesday, July 18, 2012 ComiCs/EntErtainmEnt www.mydailysentinel.com BLONDIE Dean Young/Denis Lebrun Wednesday, July 18, 2012 BEETLE BAILEY FUNKY WINKERBEAN HAGAR THE HORRIBLE HI & LOIS MUTTS Mort Walker The Daily Sentinel • Page 11 Today’s Answers Tom Batiuk Chris Browne Brian and Greg Walker THE LOCKHORNS William Hoest Patrick McDonnell Jacquelene Bigar’s Horoscope zITS THE FAMILY CIRCUS Bil Keane DENNIS THE MENACE Hank Ketchum Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman CONCEPTIS SUDOKU by Dave Green HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, July 18, 2012: This year use care, as often out-ofthe-blue anger erupts. Someone you have counted on could become most unpredictable. You cannot stabilize this person, but you will want to claim your power and maintain an independent profile. If you are single, who you attract might not be what you want on a deep level. Know that there is someone better around the corner. If you are attached, accept your significant other for better or for worse. You could criticize or ignore this person, but that behavior will get you nowhere. CANCER can be provocative.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH You will make an effort to get past any negativity that enters your day. The smart Bull will pull back in order not to catch this attitude.

You could be jolted by events surrounding work or someone you look up to. Be careful. Tonight: Let off steam. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You are all smiles, and it makes a big difference in many people’s days.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Use today’s New Moon for some reflection on your long-term desires. An element of difficulty could be coloring this process, but not every day is sunny.

Incorporate your innate creativity into anything you do. Tonight: Let off steam. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Defer to others, and know your limits. You cannot handle all the responsibilities all the time. Be smart and learn to delegate more often, even if it is just at home getting the chores done. Pressure builds surrounding an authority figure, and you respond. Tonight: Finally, time to relax with friends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Remain even, despite a situation that seems to keep building or creating stress. You still could be surprised by an unanticipated development or a change of plans. Do not throw yourself into what appears more and more negative. Tonight: Relax. You need a stress-buster. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Let your creativity emerge, despite any present tension.
