Middleport moves toward impound lot operation
Charlene Hoeflich
choeflich@mydailysentinel.com
MIDDLEPORT — Initial
steps toward establishing
a vehicle impound lot and
for purchasing two used vehicles for the Police Department were taken by Middleport Village Council at its
Monday night meeting.
Mike Hendrickson, village building inspector,
reported on his recent
visit to the impound lot at
Oak Hill. He went there to
view a facility in operation
and learn the details of the
operation as another step
toward establishing one
behind village hall should
Council decide to proceed
with that. The visit was a
part of the research being
done before any action to
move forward is taken by
the village.
It was noted that the
Middleport police need a
place to hold cars when arrests, such as DUI, occur,
or in other cases where
a car needs to be stored
while the owner is incarcerated. The other need,
Hendrickson said, is for
a place where unlicensed
and inoperable cars sitting
in places around town can
be towed and if not reclaimed within a specified
time period can be sold or
trashed or otherwise disposed of.
The owners of cars
moved to the impound lot
would be charged the towing fee if one is involved,
along with a per day rate
as long as a vehicle remains on the lot.
As for the Middleport
impound lot, Hendrickson
described a 100 by 100foot area next to the village
hall building with six-foot
fencing vinyl covered and
topped with barbed wire.
Mony Wood, jail administrator, met with Council to
to discuss not only the need
for an impound lot, but for
replacing a police cruiser.
He spoke of current mechanical issues on a couple
of cruisers, and noted that
he had talked to Carl Hysell
who has what Wood reported to be two well-equipped
cruisers on the lot. Hysell
gave Wood a trade-in value
of $1,000 on the current
cruiser which would bring
the cost of one of the vehicles down to $2,200. After
considering the condition
as Wood reported on another cruiser and the probable cost of repair, Council
asked Wood to make Hysell a $4,500 offer for both
of the cruisers on his lot

POMEROY — Gone are the days when
all the supplies a student needed to start
school with was a few pencils and a pad
to write on.
Today it’s a back pack, glue sticks, pencils, erasers, markers, crayons, colored
pencils, binders, scissors, rulers, highlighters, index cards, pencil boxes, folders, ink
pens — and the list goes on.
Because students need so many things
when school begins, like new shoes,
clothes, or a hair cut, and parents are so
hard pressed for enough money to buy everything, the Meigs Cooperative Parish is
again this year collecting school supplies
for distribution to kids who need them.

The
Pomeroy Blues & Jazz Society’s Big Bend Blues Bash
kicks its 12th annual event
on Friday evening and continues throughout the day
on Saturday.
The bash will kick off
on Friday at 6 p.m. with a
“Rock Show” theme for the
evening.
Local group Blitzkrieg
will open the festivities, followed by Eldorado Band at
6:45 p.m. The Steepwater
Band will perform at 7:45
p.m., with the Mark May
Band at 9:15 p.m.
Day one will wrap with
a 10 p.m. performance by
Michael Locke and the Repeat Offenders at the Court
Street Grill.
Blitzkrieg have been rocking the hills since 1975. The
band is heavily influenced
by the “classic rock” sound
of late 60s and 70s.
The Eldorado Band of
Madrid, Spain, is heavily influenced by archetypal rock
classics and manages to
construct a modern sound.
Their songs have been described as primarily visual

Soul Splash to be held Thursday
mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com
SYRACUSE — The second annual
Soul Splash will be held on Thursday
evening at the London Pool in Syracuse.
The event, which is organized by
the Prayer Task Force, will feature free
swimming, food, games, inflatables,
snow cones, snacks and music. The
Sanctified drama team will also perform.
The goal of the event is to give a
positive environment away from the
influence of drugs.
Service providers will also be on hand
to speak with those in attendance about
drug addiction and drug problems.
The Prayer Task Force has organized
a series of events geared toward adults,
teens and adolescents in the past. Thursday’s event is open to all ages.
Food will be provided at the event by
the Syracuse Community Center.
The Prayer Task Force is dedicated to
seeing a transformation in the community
through prayer and making an effort to
see the drug problem change one heart at
a time.
The focus is on prayer, faith and stepping up to be responsible citizens by helping one another. It is also about connecting
with resources that can help people dealing with addiction or the family of those
who have loved ones with those struggles.
Education is a key to prevention, that
along with the power of prayer is a “one,
two” punch the task force hopes will bring
real change in the war on drugs in our
area.

Dear Dr. Brothers: My
son is having trouble adjusting to his first job. At 16, he
chose to drop out of school,
and he managed to land a
part-time job working at a
local coffee shop. He was
enthusiastic at first, but
working for minimum wage
and keeping up with the early hours and the demands
of the breakfast crowds is
daunting. He wants to quit
and look for something
else, like stocking shelves in
a dollar store. Should I let
him quit and start over, or
make him keep working? —
J.F.
Dear J.F.: It sounds as
though your son has not
had a lot of experience — if
any — with working, and
it’s a bit of a culture shock.
He’s used to going to school
and not working very hard.
It’s lucky that he could find
a job, and though it is difficult right now, the work
is bound to get easier as he
gets used to doing all the
new things he’s required to
learn. If you can point out
that he is essentially receiving training in the restaurant business for free, he
may be persuaded to stick
it out for a while. If he really doesn’t want to work

real issue, though, is not the
lack of feedback — he eventually will pick his favorite
school, and a school will
pick him — but the fact that
you don’t seem to be communicating at all. Looking
at colleges can be a stressful time for both of you, or
it can be a fun time — even
a meaningful adventure that
you will both look back on
with satisfaction.
During the drive, why
don’t you ask him to share
some music with you, or
listen to some of the local
radio stations and start up
a conversation on the news
and culture you find? Talk
about what you’ve heard
about each school and what
he’s heard. Don’t let him
just shut you out. Bring up
your own college days (or
lack of them), and show
some vulnerability. Perhaps
you intimidate him, or he
just thinks you’re boring.
Surprise him. Suggest that
he go back to stay a couple
of days in the dorms of the
schools he seems most interested in. Many colleges
are happy to arrange such
a visit, where current students can get a boy like
yours to open right up.

Contract vote set for Constellium mill in W.Va.
RAVENSWOOD, W.Va. (AP) — A
proposed five-year contract covering
around 700 union workers at an aluminum rolling mill in Ravenswood is up for
a vote this week.
Media outlets report that United Steelworkers Local 5668 is holding informational meetings for members Wednesday
on Constellium Rolled Products’ contract
offer. Union workers will vote on the proposed contract Thursday and Friday.
The old contract expired at midnight
on July 15 and was extended until midnight July 22. It is now being extended
day-to-day, Local 5668 President Jason
Miller wrote in a posting on the union’s
website.
A strike vote will be held during
Wednesday’s meetings.
In a statement, Constellium said its
offer includes wage increases, one-time
wage adjustments and other economic
enhancements.
“In exchange, employees would begin
in 2014 making modest weekly contributions for health benefits and sharing in
the cost of healthcare. Under the proposal, weekly contributions would be about
half of the national average,” Constellium
said.
Employees would see an average net
gain of more than $15,000 each over the
proposed contract’s terms, the company
said.
“For a facility that has struggled and
suffered significant financial losses in
recent years, we believe this is a very reasonable offer. This proposal provides our
employees real economic benefit, while
ensuring that they still have quality, affordable health benefits for themselves
and their families. Employees are not be-
ing asked to ‘give up’ anything at the end
of the day,” Constellium Chief Executive
Officer Kyle Lorentzen said in a statement.
Constellium also said it is looking at
changing retiree medical benefits to control costs. But these benefits will continue
for 2,400 retirees and their dependents.
Ravenswood Mayor Michael Ihle said
the city is encouraging the union and the
company to agree to a deal that’s fair for
both sides.
“The contract must fairly compensate
employees for their work and the success they’ve contributed to Constellium
through their hard work; however, it must
also allow Constellium to be competitive
so that labor costs don’t hurt their ability
to provide jobs for our people,” Ihle said.
The mill is Jackson County’s largest
employer, with about 1,000 workers.

Eagle Scouts inducted at
Trinity Congregational Church
POMEROY
—
On
Wednesday, Aug. 21, 1912,
a 16-year-old boy scout of
Troop 1 in Oceanside, N.Y.
received a letter from the
then Chief Scout Executive, James E. West, that he
was to receive the very first
Eagle Scout Award in the
quite new history of the Boy
Scouts of America.
His name was Arthur
Rose Eldred and his son,
Bill, would continue the
legacy earning his Eagle in
1944.
2012 marks the centennial of that first Eagle event.
Statistics reveal that only
two out of 100 scouts ever
complete the Eagle trail
and earn scouting’s highest
rank.
Thursday, July 5, 2012,
marked the presentation
of three new Eagle Scouts
at Trinity Congregational
Church. The three young
men are the first recipients
from Troop 235 since 1985.
The three receiving the
Eagle award were Marshall
Stephen Aanestad, Shannon Michael Brown, and
Ethan Jacob Nottingham,
all students of Eastern High
School.
Marshall and Ethan will
be seniors there this fall.
Shannon recently graduated
and will be attending Ohio
University this fall.
Erik Aanestad, scoutmaster and a former Eagle
Scout (1977) officiated
the ceremony attended by
more than a hundred family members and guests.
Mark Morris, Air Force
Lt. Col. Ret., graduate of
Meigs High School and a
former Eagle Scout (1975),
was the speaker emeritus.
Pastor Tom Johnson, troop
chaplain, gave the invocation and benediction.
Marshall and Ethan
joined the troop when it
was reactivated in 2005 and
Shannon joined in 2008. All
three attended the national
jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill
in Virginia where the 100th
anniversary of Boy Scouts
of America was celebrated.
Marshall will return to
the 2013 National Jamboree
as junior assistant scoutmaster at the Bechtal Family High Adventure Camp
called “The Summit” near
Beckley, W.Va.
Both Marshall and Shannon have been American
Legion Buckeye Boy’s State
delegates, Shannon in 2011,
Aanested in 2012. All three
boys are excellent students
and participate in a wide
range of extracurricular
activities. Shannon is now
the troop’s junior assistant
scoutmaster. Marshall and
Ethan will continue to their
18th birthday working on
Eagle Palms.
Airline bid to block consumer
protections rejected
WASHINGTON (AP) — The government
can require airlines to show consumers a total ticket price that includes taxes and fees
in print and online ads, the U.S. Court of
Appeals said Tuesday, rejecting an industry
challenge to a series of consumer protection
regulations.
The Department of Transportation, which
issued the regulations last year, has the authority to regulate “unfair and deceptive”
airline industry practices, the three-member
panel said in its ruling.
The ruling also covers two other regulations: A requirement that airlines allow
consumers who purchase tickets more than
a week in advance the option of canceling
their reservations without penalty within 24
hours after purchase, and a ban on airlines
increasing the price of tickets or baggage
fees after tickets have been bought.
The rules had been challenged by Spirit
and Southwest airlines, with the support
of two major airline industry trade associations.
Prior to the new regulations, airlines
could advertise a base airfare and separately
disclose taxes and fees, which consumers
would have to add together to arrive at a to-
tal price. Under the new regulations, airlines
can still breakdown the price of a ticket to
show taxes and fees, but the total price must
be displayed in the largest type size and be
the most prominent price in the ad or on the
web page.
The airlines argued that there was nothing deceptive about listing taxes separately,
which they said is the general norm in the
U.S. economy.
But Judge David Tatel, who was appointed
by President Bill Clinton, wrote in the decision that there’s nothing in the regulations
that would force airlines to hide the taxes. As
an example, he pointed to Spirit’s website,
which listed taxes under the heading: “The
government’s cut.”
Judge Raymond Randolph agreed the
transportation department has the authority
to require the ads display a total ticket price,
but wrote in a dissent that he disagreed with
the portion of the regulation that requires
a larger typeface be used for the total price
than for taxes and fees. He said the regulation restricts the airlines’ political speech.
Randolph and the third judge on the panel,
Karen Henderson, were appointed by President George H.W. Bush.
dazed-looking James Holmes with wildly dyed red hair
stunned and angered some
of the people he is accused
of shooting and the kin of
those killed that night in a
Colorado movie theater.
“A coward,” said Tom
Teves, whose son, Alex, was
one of 12 people Holmes
is accused of killing. Tom
Teves stared at Holmes
throughout the former graduate student’s first court appearance on Monday.
“Somebody had to be in
the courtroom to say, ‘You
know what? You went in
with ballistic protection and
guns, and you shot a 6-yearold,’” he said.
Another 58 people were
wounded when authorities
say Holmes opened fire at
a midnight showing of “The
Dark Knight Rises” in Aurora. Seven remained in critical condition Tuesday.
“He doesn’t look surprised at any of it, but he
seemed amazed at what was
happening,” said Robert
Blache, who watched video
of Holmes with his injured
daughter Christina, who
was shot in both legs. “I’m
pretty sure he’s not sane.”
Holmes is being held on
suspicion of first-degree
murder, and he could face
additional counts of aggravated assault and weapons
violations. He will be formally charged on Monday,
and prosecutors say they
may seek the death penalty.
David Sanchez said that
would be appropriate if
Holmes is convicted. His
21-year-old daughter, Katie
Medley, escaped without
injury and delivered a son
Tuesday at the same hospital where her husband, Caleb, 23, was in critical condition with a head wound.
“When it’s your own
daughter and she escaped
death by mere seconds, I
want to say it makes you angry,” Sanchez said.
Allie Young, 19, was shot
in the neck, damaging her
carotid artery and knocking her into an aisle of the
theater. Her friend, Stephanie Davies, said she applied
pressure to the wound and
also managed to call 911.
“We were laying there in
the mouth of hell — there’s
smoke and explosions and
guns, bats flying across the
screen because the movie’s
still playing. It’s dark. It’s
every child’s worst nightmare,” said Davies, 21, a native of Hemet, Calif.
Both said the gunman
shouted at several people
before shooting them.
“He would shout, ‘What
are you doing? I said stand
up!’ And he would pick people up,” Davies said. “I saw
him stand over someone. I
just see hair and him holding the shirt, and ‘boom.”
Now the families of the
dead are left to plan funerals.
A service for A.J. Boik,
an 18-year-old high school
graduate, was set for Friday
in Aurora. The family has
asked that news media stay
away from the service.
A full military funeral and
burial was planned Aug. 3
in Reno, Nev., for Jonathan
Blunk, 26, who served three
tours in the Middle East
and planned to re-enlist
with the goal of becoming a
Navy SEAL.
Holmes’ prosecution is
likely to be a long road. Police expect months of working with behavioral analysts
and scrutinizing Holmes’
relationships to establish a
motive. A trial might begin
in a year or more, said prosecutor Carol Chambers.
Dr. Jeffrey Gardere, an
assistant professor of behavioral medicine at Touro
College of Osteopathic
Medicine, said Holmes’
appearance suggested “a
psychotic process going on,
and we see that being acted
out there.
“Or, there might be some
sort of malingering going
on. In other words, trying
to make himself look worse
than he actually is. Or maybe a combination of all of
those things,” Gardere said.
In San Diego, where Holmes’ family lives, family attorney Lisa Damiani said
that “everyone’s concerned”
about the possibility of the
death penalty. When asked
if they stood by Holmes,
Damiani said, “Yes, they do.
He’s their son.”
In June, Holmes quit a
35-student Ph.D. program
in neuroscience for reasons
that aren’t clear. He had earlier taken an intense oral
exam that marks the end of
the first year, but University
of Colorado Denver officials
would not say if he passed,
citing privacy concerns.
University officials have
refused to answer questions
about Holmes.
The judge has issued an
order barring lawyers in
the case from publicly commenting on matters including evidence, whether a
plea deal is in the works or
results of any examination
or test.

AIDS rise in Uganda shows Lone gunmen always a law
enforcement challenge
need for more resources
Eileen Sullivan
Associated Press
Rodney Muhumuza
Associated Press
KAMPALA, Uganda (AP)
— Once every month, John
Robert Engole checks into a
clinic on the outskirts of the
Ugandan capital to collect
his medication before quickly
returning to the village in
northern Uganda where he is
a teacher.
The regular trips have
made Engole special at Reach
Out, the AIDS clinic where
in March 2004 the Ugandan
became the first person in the
world to benefit from the U.S.
President’s Emergency Plan
for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR.
Now he is one of nearly
260,000 Ugandans accessing
treatment through PEPFAR,
and those familiar with the
man’s story say he is a remarkable example of the program’s
necessity in poor African
countries where governments
have been slow to put more resources toward prevention and
treatment of AIDS.
This is a crucial moment in
the epidemic. There is no cure
yet and no vaccine. But recent
research suggests it finally may
be possible to dramatically
stem the spread of the AIDS
virus, even in some of the hardest-hit and poorest countries,
such as Uganda.
“Turning the tide,” is the
goal as described by the International AIDS Conference that
begins Sunday in Washington.
More than 20,000 scientists,
activists and people living with
HIV from around the globe
will gather to begin figuring
out how to do that — which
combinations of protections
work best in different countries — and how to pay for it.
One key will be increasing
the number of people like Engole who are treated for their
HIV infection, preferably before they’re too weak or sick.
Recent research shows keeping HIV patients healthy has
the added benefit of making
them less likely to infect other
people. A new report from the
United Nations shows that
8 million people in low- and
middle-income countries got
that treatment last year, with
6.2 million of them living in Africa. The global goal is to have
15 million treated by 2015.
Engole was about to die
when he started treatment, his
immune system destroyed. He
says these days he only worries
about “raising school fees for
my children,” not the morbid
thoughts that once plagued his
mind. Stella Talisuna, a physician who attends to Engole,
said he was one of thousands
of Ugandans “able to get back
on their feet” because of PEPFAR, which President George
W. Bush launched in 2003.
But thousands become infected with HIV each year in
Uganda, keeping pressure on
the government and its foreign
benefactors to sustain AIDS
relief. A new government report says the prevalence of
HIV in this East African nation
increased from 6.4 percent in
2004 to 7.3 percent in 2011,
a shocking statistic for a country once praised for its global
leadership in controlling AIDS.
The same report says the number of Ugandans with HIV had
doubled since 2004, from 1.2
million to 2.4 million.
Officially, the rate is going up mainly because more
Ugandans are having multiple
sex partners. But critics of
Uganda’s AIDS control policy
say the country’s past success
in reducing the infection rate
from double digits to single
digits had been undermined
later by a shift in attention
from prevention to treatment.
Some say this had the effect of
making a generation of Ugandans less frightened by AIDS,
which once had spread terror
for its ability to shrink its victims.
At least half of the 600,000
Ugandans in need of AIDS
treatment are able to access
the drugs, mostly through
PEPFAR. U.S. government
officials have been pressing
Uganda to devote more resources to AIDS and issues
such as maternal health, saying dependency on foreign
support is unsustainable in the
long term.
Michael Strong, the PEPFAR coordinator in Uganda,
said the program is set to transition from service delivery to
technical assistance, and that
Ugandan authorities would
have to play the lead role going
forward.
“We’ll no longer be handson,” Strong said.
About 130,000 Ugandans
get HIV every year, and Joshua
Musinguzi, who heads Uganda’s AIDS control program,
said this was the figure most
discouraging of all. It means
that far too many Ugandans

are getting AIDS than the government can possibly manage
to treat.
“There is need for continuous dissemination of information,” Musinguzi said.
“Individuals have the power
to make the correct decision
if they want to. The menu is
there: ABC.”
Uganda once earned a reputation for successfully putting
in place a policy called ABC:
abstain, be faithful, or use condoms. Students of a certain
generation were shown videos
of the devastating toll of AIDS
on the human body, and then
told to postpone the first act
of intercourse. Some believe
the fear factor, now gone, was
decisive in Uganda’s successful
control of AIDS in the mid1990s.
“They now see AIDS as
much more like diabetes, one
of these chronic diseases you
can live with indefinitely,”
Timothy Kalyegira, a wellknown Ugandan social critic,
said, talking about the changing attitude toward AIDS
among Ugandans.
The government recently
added male circumcision to the
plan against AIDS, in response
to studies showing the procedure reduces the risk among
African men of getting HIV in
half. Officials want to circumcise 4 million men by 2015 in
hopes that mass circumcision,
as well as a persistent media
campaign urging Ugandans to
“get off the sexual network,”
will reduced substantially the
rate of new infections. They remain optimistic that U.S. support for AIDS treatment will
be stable for years to come.
In April three U.S. lawmakers touring Uganda with the
humanitarian group CARE
visited the clinic where Engole,
the first PEPFAR beneficiary,
gets his medication. He told
the lawmakers his story and
thanked them for PEPFAR,
and some hugged him.
“To see this man who has
a second chance now at living
a healthy life, raising a family
and children, to me was a very
humbling experience,” U.S.
Rep. Barbara Lee, a California
Democrat, said after meeting
Engole. “It also was confirmation of the fact that United
States foreign aid works.”
Lee said Engole’s example
made her realize the U.S. “can’t
pull back” from AIDS relief in
Africa.
WASHINGTON (AP) —
The lone gunman keeps law
enforcement officers across
the country awake at night.
He’s hard to pick out of a
crowd. He has no criminal record. Often, he hasn’t told anyone about his plans. He’s compiled a weapons cache legally.
He doesn’t show up on any law
enforcement radar until after
he’s acted.
The government has been
more successful stopping alQaida from pulling off another
Sept. 11-type attack than it has
in preventing deadly shooting
sprees such as the one in the
movie theater in Aurora, Colo.
Law enforcement officials
say it’s nearly impossible to
stop someone like James Holmes, the intelligent 24-year-old
who, officials believe, killed 12
people and injured dozens of
others.
The threat of the lone offender has become such a concern that the FBI in 2009 created a more than 25-member
task force to identify common
behavioral traits and characteristics. In 2012 alone, there
have been 22 mass shootings,
according to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
To stop al-Qaida, the government attacked terrorist
hideouts, froze major sources
of terrorists’ funding and made
it more difficult for them to
acquire weapons and materials
to build bombs.
Holmes does not appear to
be part of any terrorist or criminal network; officials say his
purchases were legitimate and
raised no red flags. “There will
be no easy or quick answers
and maybe there will never be
any answers,” Aurora Police
Chief Dan Oates told CBS’
“Face the Nation,” adding that
all the evidence gathered so far
indicates “he wasn’t particularly aided by anyone else.”
Until Friday, Holmes did
nothing to bring him to the attention of law enforcement.
“There’s no way you can
prevent it. There’s absolutely
no way,” said Peter Ahearn,
a former FBI agent. “It was
random. It happened. There
was nothing that could have
prevented that unless someone
saw him loading his car with
guns.”
The Homeland Security
Department runs a nation-

religion, or prohibiting the free

wide “If You See Something,
Say Something” campaign.
Ads encouraging people to
report suspicious activity are
displayed around the country,
including in some movie theaters, the department said.
So far, law enforcement
has not determined a motive
for the attack, and no one has
come forward to say they saw
Holmes doing something suspicious. People have described
him as clean-cut, studious and
quiet. A man who had a drink
with him just days before his
deadly rampage said Holmes
had a backpack and geeky
glasses.
When Holmes launched his
attack he was dressed in black,
outfitted in a gas mask, ballistic helmet, vest and leggings,
black tactical gloves and protectors on his throat and groin.
He was armed with an assaultstyle rifle, a shotgun and Glock
handgun.
Holmes broke no laws when
he purchased his weapons, and
he passed the required background checks.
Previously enacted legal restrictions on guns might have
made it more difficult for Holmes to buy certain weapons
and kill so many people, but
he still would have been able to
purchase a gun.
In 1994, Congress approved
a 10-year ban on 19 types of
military-style assault weapons.
This ban would have prevented Holmes from purchasing
one of the four firearms police
found on him and in his car —
the assault rifle. The ban also
would have prevented Holmes
from buying new high capacity
ammunition magazines so that
he could fire off more shots before without having to reload.
But that law expired in
2004, and it’s been more than
a decade since gun control advocates had a realistic hope of
getting the type of legislation
they seek, despite predictions
that each shocking outburst of
violence would lead to action.
There is a law that restricts
the purchase of body armor,
but that’s only if the purchaser
is a violent felon. It’s enforced
through an honor system, as
no background checks are required, said Dan Vice, senior
attorney for the Brady Center
to Prevent Gun Violence.
Holmes
also
“boobytrapped” his apartment with
trip wires and explosive devices set up to kill, police said.
He appeared to use three types
of explosives — jars filled with
accelerants, chemicals that
would explode when mixed together and more than 30 “improvised grenades,” according
to a law enforcement official,
who spoke on condition of
anonymity, citing the ongoing investigation. It’s unclear
whether those materials were
legally purchased or whether
they were of such high quantities that purchasing them
could have set off a red flag for
an observant store clerk.
Many lone gunmen and lone
wolf terrorists are intelligent
and have normal cognitive
functions, such as the ability
to remember things, pay attention and concentrate, said
Kathleen Puckett, a former
FBI behavioral expert. Puckett
did a study in 2001 for the FBI
that examined lone offenders,
terrorists and shooters. “Basically there was no common denominator outwardly that you
could see,” she said.
This leaves any hope of
stopping someone like Holmes
to the average person to say
something if he sees something suspicious, said Christopher Voss, a former FBI agent
and hostage negotiator. It’s on
the government to reassure
people that they’re not being
paranoid, or overreacting,
when they see something that
doesn’t seem right, he said.
“That’s really the only defense against lone gunmen
— for someone to have said
something when they wrote
off their observations and instincts,” Voss said.
In an intelligence bulletin,
the FBI and Homeland Security Department reminded
law enforcement about indicators of suspicious activity at
entertainment venues such as
movie theaters. Among those
are significant changes to appearances from one visit to the
next, missing hands or fingers,
strange odors or bright stains
on clothes, clothing that’s not
appropriate for the season, an
unusual interest in security
procedures and loitering without an explanation.
When people first saw Holmes in the theater, he was a silhouette, taken by some in the
audience for a stunt that was
part of one of the summer’s
most highly anticipated films.

WALNUT TWP. — The Gallia County
Sheriff ’s Office is currently investigating the alleged theft of farm equipment
from a home located in Walnut Township near the Lawrence County line.
Reportedly, deputies were dispatched
at approximately 3:45 p.m. to the intersection of Flagsprings and Cadmus
Road in reference to a possible shooting
and break-in.
Upon arrival at the scene of the incident on Rosa Road, deputies discovered that three of the suspects in this
case were being held at gunpoint by the
victims of the alleged theft and several
other individuals.
The suspects were secured by deputies, and, upon investigation, it was discovered that a fourth suspect had fled
the scene in a green Ford Explorer towing a trailer.
The fourth suspect had reportedly entered the vehicle when the victims arrived on scene.
Another individual had reportedly ar-
rived and attempted to block the suspect
vehicle, but the suspect left the scene.
The individual reportedly followed
the Ford Explorer to nearby Miller Road
where the suspect had exited the vehicle
and fled on foot into a wooded area.
The fourth suspect was later apprehended by deputies.
Reportedly, a farm disc had been taken from the residence, loaded onto the
trailer and the suspects were allegedly
going to have the piece of equipment
scrapped.
Additionally, the suspect vehicle had a
busted tire and headlight — both damaged from possible gun fire.
The vehicle was towed from the scene.
The two male and two female suspects
were transported to the Gallia County
Sheriff ’s Office.
Upon investigation, the female suspects were released.
The male suspects are being held in
the Gallia County Jail.
The case has been referred to the city
solicitor for charges.

Ohio selected as MAC preseason favorite
DETROIT (AP) — The
Mid-American Conference
has crowned a different
champion in each of the last
four seasons. Sure enough,
there is another favorite going into next season.
Defending East Division
champion Ohio, which lost
in last season’s conference
championship game, was
the media’s preseason pick
Tuesday to win the MAC.
The Bobcats were picked
ahead of Bowling Green
and Miami in the East and
Toledo was the pick in the
West ahead of Northern Illinois and Western Michigan.
Ohio (10-4 last season)
welcomes back 15 starters,
including QB Tyler Tettleton, who threw for 3,286
yards and 28 touchdowns
during his sophomore season. The son of former major league catcher Mickey
Tettleton said he’s flattered
by the predictions.
“It’s a compliment,” he
said. “It means people
look at you and expect you
to compete for championships. That’s what the
coaching staff has been all
about since I’ve been here
so we’re pretty excited
about the chance to go out
and play for one.”
The Bobcats have been to
three straight bowl games
and won their first under
coach Frank Solich last year
when they topped Utah
State in the Famous Idaho
Potato Bowl. The coach
said the momentum from
that victory can only help.
“When you’re coming
back from a bowl loss,
there’s a little something
nagging at you,” he said.
“After winning last year,
you can just tell how pleased
guys are we reached one of
our goals and how much
they want to get another
one.”
One goal still eludes Solich and his staff: Ohio has
played in three of the last
six MAC title games and
lost each time.
Northern Illinois defeated Ohio 23-20 in last season’s championship game.
Second-year coach Dave
Doeren, whose team won
its final nine games last season, said the taste of success helped plenty during
the offseason.
“It’s always good to go
out with a championship,”
he said. “And when you get
back into offseason conditioning, it’s a lot easier to
get players to do what you
ask them when they saw
what last year added up to.”
Central Michigan was
the last team to repeat as
champs after taking a second straight title in 2007.
The conference sent five
teams to bowl games last
season and four came home
winners.
Temple, a football-only
member since 2007, left the
MAC for the Big East during the offseason and will
be replaced this fall by Massachusetts, which debuts in
the Football Bowl Subdivision. The Minutemen, who
will continue to play all other sports in the Atlantic 10,
will play most of their home
games at Gillette Stadium

Oklahoma State quarterback Brandon Weeden (3) throws a
pass in the fourth quarter against Kansas at Memorial Stadium
in Lawrence, Kansas, on Saturday, November 20, 2010.
No ordinary rookie,
Weeden takes
control of Browns
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
Brandon Weeden once
dreamed of wearing blue
Yankees pinstripes.
He settled for a logo-less
orange helmet.
Despite a high-powered
right arm that got him drafted out of high school in the
second round by the New
York Yankees, Weeden’s
baseball career fizzled out
in the low minor leagues,
where hitters weren’t fooled
by a 95 mph fastball that
sometimes left the ballpark
at an even higher rate of
speed.
“I gave up some bombs,”
he said.
The Browns, who have
spent 13 years searching
for a franchise quarterback,
are counting on Weeden delivering a different kind of
long ball.
Although he hasn’t offi-
cially been declared Cleveland’s starter, and Colt McCoy remains on the roster,
Weeden will begin training
camp this month as the
Browns’ presumptive No.
1 quarterback, a soon-tobe 29-year-old rookie they
believe could finally end
years of futility for a onceproud organization that has
yet to make the Super Bowl
and a loyal fan base out of
patience.
“We know he knows how
to compete,” said secondyear coach Pat Shurmur,
whose future could hinge
on Weeden’s success — or
failure.
Selected with No. 22 overall pick in April’s draft —
much earlier than predicted
— Weeden impressed the
Browns’ coaching staff and
teammates during offseason

Ravens have holes to
fill in training camp
OWINGS MILLS, Md.
(AP) — The Baltimore Ravens lost several of their
most trusted and efficient
players during the offseason.
Now it’s time to find their
replacements.
The Ravens are the only
NFL team to reach the playoffs in each of the past four
seasons, an accomplishment that can be attributed
greatly to the continuity of
the roster.
Playmakers Ray Lewis,
Ed Reed, Joe Flacco, Ray
Rice and Haloti Ngata all
have been key contributors.
So were Terrell Suggs, Jarret Johnson and Ben Grubbs
— none of whom will be in
attendance when the Ravens have their first training
camp practice on Thursday.
There are other issues
that must be resolved before the season opens, not
the least of which is Reed’s
insistence that the Ravens
fork over more than the $7.2
million he’s due in the final
year of his contract. Reed
skipped the team’s manda-
tory minicamp session, and
although he is expected to
be in camp for the first practice, the 33-year-old may not
be in perfect frame of mind.
Coach John Harbaugh is
also looking for a backup
to Rice, who made this a
positive offseason for Baltimore by signing a five-year
contract that enabled him
to shed his franchise tag.
Ricky Williams, who played
behind Rice last season, retired in February.
That is precisely what
makes this summer different for the Ravens. There
are plenty of holes to fill,
and Harbaugh doesn’t have
a whole lot of time to complete the task because a difficult September schedule
lies ahead for the defending
AFC North champions.
Harbaugh got a head start
during minicamp.
“You are trying to find
yourself as a team, what
your guys do well, what they
don’t do well, what they do
together,” he said. “You
start to get a feel for what

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton eludes the grasp of Baltimore Ravens cornerback Cary Williams in the second
half of their game on Sunday, November 20, 2011, in Baltimore, Maryland.
Bengals have new camp
look, rookies in spotlight
CINCINNATI (AP) — A whitetopped tent is anchored at the entrance
to the Cincinnati Bengals’ practice
field. Workers are cleaning seats inside
Paul Brown Stadium, getting ready for
a franchise first.
The team opens training camp this
weekend without leaving home.
The Bengals spent their first 44
training camps at Wilmington College
and Georgetown College, small schools
that were more than an hour’s drive
away from Cincinnati. They preferred
having their players in an isolated environment.
The slimmed-down training camp
schedule mandated by the new collective bargaining agreement prompted
them to change. The Bengals were one
of only a dozen teams that held training
camp away from team headquarters
last year.
“It’s new and different for us, but not
for most teams in the league,” owner
Mike Brown said on Tuesday. “We have
better facilities here than we could find
anywhere else. Training camp anymore
has dwindled down to just three weeks.
We used to leave for training camp af-
ter the July 4 holiday and come back
after Labor Day weekend. Three weeks
— it seems we no sooner get there and
it’s time to come back.
“I think it’s good for that reason
and most of all, we can reach out to
our fans. They don’t have to drive far,
they can watch us downtown. All those
things are good.”
The Bengals hope that by holding
camp at their stadium and practice
field across the street, fans will get
more excited about a team coming off
only its third winning season in the last
20 years.
The Bengals went 9-7 in the regular
season and gained a wild card berth
when the rest of the competition melted down in the closing weeks. They
lost to Houston in the playoffs, leaving
them 0-3 in the postseason since their
last playoff win in1990.
Cincinnati still has a lot of work to do
in winning back fans. Six of the eight
games at Paul Brown Stadium failed to
sell out last season and were blacked
out on local television, even though the
team was in the playoff chase. The six
blackouts were the most in the league.
The NFL eased its blackout rules
after the season, allowing teams to set
a lower threshold of ticket sales for a
game to count as a sellout. They can
count a game as sold out if only 85 percent of the stadium is full.
In his first public comment on the
new rule, Brown said Tuesday that he
won’t lower the threshold for a sellout
at the Bengals’ 65,500-seat stadium,
which opened in 2000 and was funded
primarily by a local sales tax increase
that also covered a Reds ballpark.
“If you think back to when they
passed the sales tax to finance the stadiums, they did it so people could come
downtown to the stadiums and watch
games,” Brown said. “They didn’t do it
so people could sit at home and watch
games on television. They could have
done that without a new stadium.
“So I think it is best for us and when
I look around the league, I can see most
teams staying with the old rule.”
Ticket sales are up from a year ago,
when the team was coming off a 4-12
season and the NFL was in the midst of
a lockout. The Bengals started winning

Steelers adjusting to new offense as camp opens
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Ben Roethlisberger likens offensive coordinator
Todd Haley’s versatile playbook to
learning a new language.
Time to see how fluent the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback — and the
rest of his teammates — have become.
Five months after Haley replaced
the ousted Bruce Arians, the Steelers
finally get a chance to see what the former Kansas City coach brings when
training camp opens on Wednesday.
They dabbled with the basics during
minicamp and organized team activities, putting Roethlisberger a little
more at ease.
A little.
“I’m not saying I can go out and call
a game myself right now,” the twotime Super Bowl champion said last
month. “When he calls a play, I know
what’s going on for the most part. So
we’re getting it down to figuring it
out.”
And they may have to begin the process without Pro Bowl wide receiver
Mike Wallace, who has yet to sign his
one-year tender. The speedster, entering his fourth season, would like
a long-term deal. The Steelers, never
fond of protracted contract negotiations, would like their big-play specialist to be in camp. Though Wallace’s
teammates insist he’ll be at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pa., sooner
rather than later, every day that passes
without Wallace’s familiar No. 17 is
one that Roethlisberger will use to develop a deeper rapport with Antonio
Brown, Jerricho Cotchery and Emmanuel Sanders.
“You’re always going to miss something,” Sanders said. “Whether it’s
camaraderie of the teammates or just
the physical aspect of (implementing)
the playbook. But Mike is one of those
guys that’s going to get in here and hit
the ground running.”
He’d be wise to hurry. For all the
firepower Wallace provides, Brown
became Roethlisberger’s favorite target toward the end of last season. The
sure-handed Brown had more receptions over the last eight weeks of the
regular season — hauling in 35 to
Wallace’s 26 — and added five more
in a wild-card playoff loss to Denver,
a game in which Wallace made just
three grabs for a mere 26 yards.
While Brown insists it’s just a coincidence that he inherited the locker
vacated by the recently retired Hines
Ward, there’s no mistaking the hardworking Brown is considered the most
likely to fill the leadership void. It’s

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for
Wednesday, July 25, 2012:
This year you demonstrate the
ability to handle the unexpected, difficult and irritating parts of your life.
Your flex and understanding can only
evolve. You also seek answers with
a newfound need for depth, which
causes many debates. If you are
single, you want someone romantic and intense. This person could
appear through a friendship. If you
are attached, you gain appreciation
for each other through socializing
more as a couple with others. Make
special time for the two of you, too.
SCORPIO inspires a whole new life
perspective.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH Others try to lure you into
their way of thinking. An unexpected
insight about someone really has you
rethinking your interaction with this
person. Do not let a conversation get
too heavy; otherwise, the other party
might lock onto one comment and get
depressed. Tonight: With a favorite or
special person.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH You could go beyond the
call of duty for an associate. Do not
anticipate this person’s reaction; stay
centered. You might find that you
cannot count on this person as you
would have liked. Try to accomplish
as much as possible. Tonight: Out on
the town.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You exude a sense of
well-being and caring when you are
among others. This attitude tends to
win the confidence of many people.
Your buoyancy helps push a project
forward, and at the same time, you
are able to lift someone’s spirits.
Tonight: Make it early.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH Your comfort level is always
the highest at home. For that reason,
if you can work or stay close to home,
do. News that changes the big picture
comes forward. Do not sink into negativity. A change in the status quo could
be good. Tonight: Paint the town red.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH Your words do not fall on
deaf ears. Others have a very different
style of letting you know that they hear
you. Remain sensitive to the possibilities that are offered, and take your
time when making a decision. Stay in
the present, if possible. Tonight: Head
on home.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHH A partner’s whimsical statement or action starts quite a conversation. Try to understand where this
person is coming from. You could feel
financially limited at this point in time,
so you might not feel as if you can
make the offer you would like. Tonight:
Join a friend.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH You feel as if someone had
asked you to do something you did
not want to do but unfortunately said
“yes” to. Once you see a shortcut, do
not hesitate to take it. A person you
look up to shares a plethora of suggestions. Tonight: Your treat.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHH Your mindset colors everything you do. Do not hesitate to
indulge in some spontaneity to help
change your mood. Could you be
taking a statement further than it was
intended? Probably. Let it go before
you affect a relationship. Tonight:
Feeling like yourself again.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH Use the daylight hours to
the max. You work well with others.
Expect surprises from a child or new
friend. It always helps to maintain a
sense of humor. You could become
very demanding when reacting to one
key person. Tonight: Not to be found.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHH You will stand up for yourself with a superior. You might be
surprised by this person’s reaction.
Situations that were predictable might
not be any longer. Someone you
count on might not be as available as
in the past. Tonight: Find your friends.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH Do all your research and
questioning during the daylight hours.
You could hit a wild situation where
you might be floored, which is unusual
for you. Conversations are animated,
to say the least. Remain enthusiastic,
even if you are in a changeable situation. Tonight: Out and about.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Keep reaching out for a key
person in your life whom you can talk
to on a very deep level. You might
need to deal with his or her mood first
before you can launch into the conversation you want. Know how and when
to try to connect on this level. Tonight:
Try a new nightspot.

Steelers
From Page 6
a comparison the soft-spoken
Brown tries to downplay,
though he’s well aware of the
legacy Ward left behind following a likely Hall of Fame career.
“Hines, he’s irreplaceable,”
Brown said. “I’m just going to
do what coach (Mike) Tomlin
talks about and be the next
man up.”
There’s going to be a lot of
that going around following
one of the bumpier offseasons
in recent memory. Defensive
linemen Aaron Smith and
Chris Hoke and linebacker
James Farrior joined Ward in
retirement, while offensive
guard Chris Kemoeatu was released. That’s nine Super Bowl
rings and seven combined Pro
Bowls gone.
While there will be no lack
of volunteers — particularly on
an offensive line in the midst of
a major youth movement after
the Steelers used their top two
picks in April’s draft to select
guard David DeCastro and
tackle Mike Adams — the core
that led the franchise to three
Super Bowl appearances since
2005 remains intact.
Roethlisberger turned 30 in
the offseason and is ready to
enter the prime of his career
and his life. While the Steelers
Bengals
were overhauling the roster
this spring, he was finishing
up his degree at Miami (Ohio)
and announcing that he and
his wife, Ashley, are expecting
their first child in December.
The trouble that dogged Roethlisberger early in his career
has disappeared. With Ward’s
retirement Roethlisberger is
the longest-tenured offensive
starter. The Steelers would like
to keep it that way, one of the
main reasons they brought in
Haley and beefed up the offensive line.
Roethlisberger spent most
of the season banged-up playing behind a line that struggled
to protect him. He suffered
a pair of debilitating injuries
to his left foot last season, including a painful ankle sprain
against Cleveland in early December that was a major issue
into the playoffs.
Haley orchestrated an attack
at Arizona that led the Cardinals to the 2009 Super Bowl,
then in Kansas City revitalized
the franchise behind a bonecrunching running game. His
presence should make Pittsburgh’s offense a little more
balanced.
The Steelers finished with
more passing attempts than
rushing plays in each of the
last four seasons, including a
56-44 pass-run ratio in 2011.
The addition of DeCastro, an
All-American at Stanford, and
the continued development of
second-year right tackle Marcus Gilbert and two-time Pro
Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey — combined with Willie
Colon’s move from tackle to
left guard — should give the
line the kind of punch it lacked
last fall.
The Steelers scored touchdowns on just over half of their
trips to the red zone, one of
the main reasons they ranked
just 21st in scoring. That’s not
nearly enough to keep pace in
today’s NFL, particularly with
a defense that showed signs of
aging in key moments in 2011,
including the playoff loss to the
Broncos in which Tim Tebow
passed for 316 yards and two
touchdowns, including the 80yard winner on the first play of
overtime.
It’s a memory that has stuck
with cornerback Ike Taylor,
who chased Denver’s Demaryius Thomas down the field on
the final play of Pittsburgh’s
season. He thinks about it often and is eager to move on.
After a lackluster season — by
their lofty standards — so are
the Steelers.

fans back with a playoff push
led by then-rookie quarterback Andy Dalton and receiver A.J. Green.
The spotlight will be on
rookies again starting at the
opening practice on Friday.
The Bengals need to find
a receiver to complement
Green. Third-round pick Mohamed Sanu from Rutgers can
earn significant playing time.
Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick,
the 17th overall pick in the
draft, will get a chance to win
a starting job across from
Leon Hall.
Hall is returning from a
torn Achilles tendon that has
limited him during offseason
workouts. Defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer said on
Tuesday that Hall is expected
to pass his physical exam before the first practice and line
up as a starter.
“I’m hoping I see him real
early in camp — the first day,”
Zimmer said. “He hasn’t been
(medically) cleared yet.”
The secondary is the biggest question on defense. The
Bengals have stocked up on
veterans who struggled with
other teams, hoping they can
get something out of them in
Zimmer’s defense.
“Are we the most talented
in the league? No,” Zimmer
said. “But we have a lot of intangibles.”
In addition to finding a No.
2 receiver, the Bengals have to
decide how to replace Cedric
Benson at running back. They
signed BenJarvus Green-Ellis
from New England to compete with Bernard Scott, the
No. 2 running back last year.
Offensive coordinator Jay
Gruden hasn’t decided how
he’ll use the two.
“We have a lot of work to do
before we can think about a rotation,” Gruden said. “Hopefully somebody will emerge
as the No. 1 guy. If not, if they
both do great things, then we
will use them both.”
Ravens
From Page 6
direction you are going to
go in all three phases, what
you are going to be able to
do really well. That process definitely carries on
through training camp.”
Over the next six weeks,
the Ravens need to solidify
an offensive line that lost
Grubbs as a free agent to
New Orleans and was without 360-pound left tackle
in Bryant McKinnie during minicamp. McKinnie
was held out because of
conditioning concerns, and
there’s no telling yet whether he will be ready to suit
up at the outset of training
camp.
Baltimore also needs to
replace Suggs, who tore
his right Achilles tendon
during the offseason and
could be lost for the year.
Suggs had 70 tackles and
a career-high 14 sacks in
2011, which earned him a
fifth invite to the Pro Bowl
and NFL Defensive Player
of Year honors.
“We will miss Terrell, but
it’s next man up,” cornerback Lardarius Webb said.
Harbaugh hopes to fill the
void with Paul Kruger and/
or Sergio Kindle, who must
immediately show their
ability to mount a pass rush
or general manager Ozzie
Newsome might be forced
to sign someone else.
Although overshadowed
by fellow linebackers Lewis
and Suggs, Johnson played
in 129 straight games —
including 80 straight starts

one play in the second quarter at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland.
— during his nine-year
run with Baltimore. Now a
member of the San Diego
Chargers after leaving as a
free agent, Johnson’s steady
work and leadership in the
locker room will be missed.
Top draft pick Courtney
Upshaw, a standout linebacker at Alabama, now
stands atop the depth chart.
He’s raw, but willing.
“I just love his motor,”
Lewis said. “He’s a kid that
just loves football. And anytime you get a rookie that
can just grab certain things
1/8 Trust me, forget the
mental errors, because that’s
just life. I don’t care what
year you’re in, you’re going
to make mental errors. But
the way he approaches the
game, his speed toward the
game, and the way he flies
around to the football, you
really appreciate watching
somebody like him.”
Upshaw will be operating
for first-year defensive coordinator Dean Pees, who got
the job after Chuck Pagano
left to become coach at Indianapolis.
Harbaugh can only hope
the enthusiasm he saw last
month carries over into the
dog days of August and into
a September that includes
games against the Bengals,
Eagles and Patriots.
“It was a really good minicamp,” he said. “I love the
way we worked. I love the
mindset of our guys, the
very determined mindset.
They are having fun, working hard, and that’s what
you ask for — spirited.”
right pick. The Browns can’t
afford to waste any more
time that they already have in
stabilizing the game’s most
important position. Since
1999, Cleveland has had 16
different quarterbacks start
games.
It’s imperative the Browns
get Weeden as many reps as
possible during camp, which
is why it’s likely the team
will move McCoy, who has
gone 5-16 in two seasons
as a starter, before they get
too deep into the summer.
Weeden must also quickly
develop chemistry with
Cleveland’s receiving corps,
now a little deeper after the
team selected former Baylor
wide receiver Josh Gordon in
the recent NFL supplemental
draft.
Before they took Weeden,
the Browns tried but failed
to move up in the draft to
get quarterback Robert Griffin III. When that failed, they
were determined not to let
running back Trent Richardson slip away and moved up
to No. 3 to pick the former
Alabama star, who could
have a greater impact as a
rookie than Weeden.
Richardson, who came
from the same Florida high
school that produced Hall of
Famer Emmitt Smith, aspires
to one day join his idol with a
bronze bust in Canton — no
matter what Jim Brown says.
Just before the draft,
Brown, the greatest Cleveland Brown of them all, called
Richardson “ordinary” and
questioned why his former
team would use a high pick
on him.
Richardson, to his credit,
never challenged Brown’s
puzzling comments. In fact,
Richardson is using them as
motivation.
“I’ve got big shoes to fill.
I don’t dislike Jim Brown
for his comments on me,”
Richardson said. “He’s just
pushing me to the limit. He’s
going to make sure I’m going
to work and make sure he
can get everything he can out
of me as far as me being in
Cleveland.”
The Browns’ running game
was awful last season as injuries and other distractions
prevented Peyton Hillis from
coming close to matching his
1,177-yard season in 2010.
Richardson should expect to
get 20 to 25 carries per game
under new offensive coordinator Brad Childress.
On defense, the Browns
must plug a gaping hole —
and a crevice — during camp.
Massive tackle Phil Taylor is
expected to miss at least half
the season after tearing a biceps muscle lifting weights.
Veteran backup Scott Paxson
and rookies John Hughes and
Billy Winn will compete to
hold down Taylor’s spot.
With NFL Commissioner
Roger Goodell upholding
linebacker Scott Fujita’s
suspension for his involvement in the Saints’ bounty
scandal, the Browns need to
find someone to anchor the
strong side for the season’s
first three games — and future. Kaluka Maiava, who
has been slowed by injuries
the past two seasons, will
get first crack with rookies
James-Michael Johnson and
Emmanuel Acho on deck.
Campbell was promoted at
Toledo after Tim Beckman
left to take the top job at
Illinois.
The conference also announced a contract extension that will keep its annual championship at Ford
Field through 2015. The
downtown stadium that is
home to the Detroit Lions
has hosted the title game
since 2004. Commissioner
Jon Steinbrecher said the
conference expects to surpass last season’s TV exposure, when 71 percent of
its games were broadcast
nationally or regionally.

minicamps with his accuracy
and intellect. He displayed
a nice touch on short tosses
and showed off his longrange capability by launching
a few 60-yard throws.
He looked and acted the
part, which didn’t surprise
former Oklahoma State
teammate Justin Blackmon.
“He’s got a strong arm
and makes great decisions
and he knows how to put the
ball in the right spot at the
right time,” said Blackmon,
Weeden’s primary target in
college now with Jacksonville. “I wouldn’t trade him
for anyone. He can throw the
ball from sideline to sideline
and with lots of velocity and
speed. He can put it there. He
knows how read the coverage
and makes smart decisions.
“He loves to compete.”
Shurmur has been adamant in saying he won’t hand
Weeden the starting job, but
the Browns didn’t take him
in the first round to sit on the
bench or groom him for the
future. Not at his age, and the
Browns are confident he’ll be
ready when they open against
Philadelphia on Sept. 9.
“Instead of waiting and
rolling the dice just a little
bit and seeing another way
to go, we said, ‘Let’s not run
the risk and take Brandon at
No. 22,’” said Browns president Mike Holmgren. “We’re
very excited to have him.
How he’s different than all
the other quarterbacks that
were drafted ahead of him
or behind him is his age and
maturity.”
Weeden had better be the
