Of that total amount it will cost the village only $34,129. That amount, Baker said, is provided at zero interest to be paid back $558.82 twice a year. Baker said the village’s portion of the well project will be paid from the village’s capital improvements fund. The well was reported as having a potential life span of 80 years. It was noted that the en- choeflich@mydailysentinel.com MDDLEPORT — Middleport Village Council took action at its Monday night meeting to begin drawing down funding from an Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) grant of $193,399 to be used in the development of an additional water well in the village. The total cost of the new well, according to Susan gineering fee on the project was $23,550 while the contractor’s cost is $196,259. The resolution to begin drawing down the grant money was passed unanimously by Council. It was noted that two well-equipped cruisers for the police department were purchased as authorized at the last meeting. Officer Mony Wood, jail administer, was present at the meeting to give a report on the jail operation and the finances. The report shows that the operation is profitable. or as commented by the clerk- treasurer “doing really well financially.” Figures for the jail operation show that since the March 29 opening, a total of $63,792.98 has been collected from sources using the facility to house prisoners. Wood said the main expense of the operation is food and he presented a plan to decrease that cost. A suggestion he made was to use money currently in the “phone commission account,” a total of $515.07, (a percentage of the cost of telephone service provided to prisoners by an outside company) for the purchase of an animal at the Meigs County Fair and the processing charge. This, he said, would cut the cost of meat served to the prisoners, thereby reducing the cost of food. Wood said he felt this would not only reduce the cost of meat needed to feed the prisoners, but do it without money from regular village funds. In other words by using the phone commissions to pay for the meat, no tax dollars will be involved and, in fact, the village will be saving some money usually spent for meat. Council approved the plan with the stipulation that the whole process not cost more than the amount See WATER ‌| 2 Meigs Local Schools are ready to roll Classes begin next Wednesday Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com Sarah Hawley/photos Jonathan Barrett (far right) showed the grand champion market goat and Makayla Findley (far left) showed the reserve champion market goat during Monday’s Junior Fair Market Goat Show.

PORTLAND — A Women’s Health Day scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 30 at the Portland Community Center may be cancelled because of a lack of clients, according to Norma Torres, Think Pink Director for Meigs County. She said that only ten are scheduled and there must be a minimum of 17 for the OSU Mobile Mammography Unit to travel to Meigs County.

That grant was renewed this year in the amount of $43,800. It provides funding for fruit and vegetables to be offered to the children outside of the school lunch program. Superintendent Bookman advises that the district is the recipient of $960,000 in state and federal grants for the coming school year. That money is used to facilitate and enhance learning opportunities for students. Included are the 21st Century Grants, renewals for after-school programs at the Meigs Primary and Elementary Schools, and Meigs High School, and a new program to be started at the Meigs Interme- diate School. Kristin Baer and Darin Logan, principals in the Elementary School, advise that the 21st Century grant money will be used this year to support the creation of community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities during nonschool hours. The program is geared to help students meet state and local student standards in core academic subjects such as reading and math, as well as to expose them to a broad array of enrichment activities. The new 21st Century grant at the Middle School where Vickie Jones is principal will have similar goals and information on that program and enrollment information will be provided parents once the program is ready to begin. As for Meigs High School the funding will go to continue a program started last year providing academic and non-academic activities to qualified students four days a week after school. New to Meigs High School this year is an Ohio Graduation Test (OGT) preparation for sophomores class to be incorporated into the regular school day. Steve Ohlinger, principal, describes this as “a proactive approach to preparing sophomores prior to their first attempt at taking the OGT.” MHS currently has intervention classes for those students that have been unsuccessful at passing one or more of the five (5 )sections of the test, he said. Mike Hendrickson, building inspector, gave a report on the vehicle impound lot and the cost of fencing which he is still exploring. The ordinance to move forward on that project has been passed. A revision on removing vehicles from private property was discussed. Expenses for Hendrickson to attend a FEMA conference in Columbus was approved by Council. A third and final reading was given to the work order ordinance and passed by a five to one vote, (Roger Manley voting no) with some discussion on the violation penalty charge. Meeting with Council was Policeman Frank Stewart, who distributed material on the Neighborhood Watch, and announced a public information meeting to be held on Aug. 23 at 6:30 p.m. in the Village Hall gymnasium. At that time residents will be given on overview of the plan and how they can participate in it or otherwise facilitate its operation. The plan calls for dividing the village into zones and developing an “alert system” in each zone with residents in that zone to become the “eyes and ears of the community.” Other discussions revolved around distressed property demolition, the need for some new guard railing, the appearance of the back of the old stadium, and the sale of some excess construction materials. The Council moved into executive session to discuss employee disciplinary for an employee. Ohio Valley Forecast Schools Wednesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 83.

Day-to-day domestic programs funded by spending bills each year face cuts of about 8 percent. But since the new budget year begins Oct. 1 and the cuts don’t take effect until Jan. 2, the mandatory reductions have to be absorbed in nine months and might therefore feel more like 12 percent. Agency budget officials could begin husbanding resources in October, but only if they’re willing to flout White House and congressional directives to maintain normal spending through the election and up to January. Last year’s budget law requires cutting every “program, project and activity” by an equal percentage, so managers have no choice but to cut payroll costs. They’re more likely, however, to furlough workers temporarily rather than lay them off, especially since few believe that Congress would let a sequester drag on for months. Laying off federal workers also takes time; generally they enjoy more legal rights than private-sector employees. Once the election is over, intense negotiations are expected on sidestepping the sequester and the expiration of former President George W. Bush’s tax cuts. The two events have been dubbed a “fiscal cliff” because many economists fear the combination will plunge the country back into recession. While there’s no guarantee that the negotiations will bear fruit, few people in Washington believe a sequester would remain in place more than a few weeks. “I don’t think anybody can be confident that anything’s going to happen in the lame duck” session of Congress, said Scott Lilly, a former longtime aide on the House Appropriations Committee who’s now with the Center for American Progress think tank. “People find it so absurd that they don’t think it’s at all possible that it’s going to happen. And when they find out it has happened, the reaction is going to be extreme. Sometime in January you’re going to see the Congress finally come to its senses.” The real-world impact of a short sequester of several weeks would vary program by program. For example, Education Department grants to school districts are sent out in early fall and wouldn’t be affected unless the sequester dragged on for months. The same for a program like Head Start, in which funding is delivered to states in the summer. But labor-intensive programs like air traffic control, meat inspection and Transportation Security Administration screening at airports would be affected immediately. Fewer employees at national parks could mean closed campgrounds and less access for visitors, and there would be fewer workplace safety inspectors at job sites. Cuts in other federal programs might go unnoticed for a while. For example, many people eligible for subsidized housing vouchers are already on waiting lists. Their wait would just be longer. The impact would be more pronounced if gridlock persisted and the sequester lasted a year. In testimony to Congress earlier this month, acting White House Budget Director Jeffrey Zients said the automatic spending cuts would mean that 700,000 fewer low-income women and children would receive food aid and 100,000 preschool kids would lose places in Head Start. Zients said such cuts “would jeopardize critical programs that improve children’s health and education, adversely impacting future generations.” Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, who chairs the Senate Appropriations Committee panel responsible for education and health-related spending, released a staff report last month which broke the cuts down further. It estimated that the sequester could mean more than 12,000 HIVpositive people would lose access to their antiviral drugs, and that a $2.7 billion cut in federal funding for Title I grants to schools, special education funding and Head Start could mean more than 46,000 lost jobs. “Some members of Congress warn that defense contracting firms will lay off employees if sequestration goes into effect,” Harkin said at a recent hearing. “They say nothing of the tens of thousands of teachers, police officers and other public servants in communities all across America who would also lose their jobs. A laid-off teacher is just as unemployed as a laidoff defense contractor.” Retail spending lifts economic hopes WASHINGTON (AP) — Hopes that the economy may emerge from its slump got a lift Tuesday from a report that Americans increased their spending at retailers in July by the most in five months. From cars, electronics and sporting goods to furniture, building supplies and garden equipment, every major category of spending rose last month. It was a heartening start to the second half of the year after consumers had reduced their retail spending in each month of the April-June quarter. Retail sales rose 0.8 percent from June to July, the Commerce Department said. It was the sharpest increase since February. The stepped-up spending was evident in Home Depot’s report Tuesday that its customers spent more on remodeling and repair projects in the second quarter. Those gains suggested that consumers are feeling more optimistic about the recovery of the housing market. Americans appear to be taking their cue from the economy’s modest but steady improvements. Employers added 163,000 jobs in July, the best month for job growth since February. Home prices are up. The value of U.S. exports reached a record high last month. U.S. consumers are expressing more confidence. Stock indexes are near their highs for the year. And consumer confidence rose in July for the first time in five months. “It looks like lower gas prices, a nice rally in stocks and stronger job growth … helped boost consumer spending” in July said Jennifer Lee, senior economist at BMO Capital Markets. Some economists cautioned that consumers will likely sustain their spending increases only if hiring continues to strengthen. In the meantime, many remain anxious about the job market and held back by slow wage gains and high debts. “Americans are not throwing caution to the wind,” said Chris Christopher, a senior economist at IHS Global Insight. A brighter outlook for the economy might also make the Federal Reserve hesitant to take further action to boost growth when its policy committee meets in September. Still, the overall economy remains subpar. It grew at an annual rate of just 1.5 percent from April through June. That’s far too weak to lower the unemployment rate, which ticked up in July to 8.3 percent. And inflation remains mild, which gives the Fed more leeway to act if it decides the economy needs further help. The Labor Department said in a separate report Tuesday that wholesale prices rose 0.3 percent in July from June. Lower energy prices offset sharp gains in the costs of food, cars and light trucks. Wholesale prices increased only 0.5 percent in the 12 months that ended in July. That’s the lowest since October 2009. Excluding food and energy costs, prices rose 2.5 percent in the 12 months that ended in July. It was the smallest year-over-year gain since June 2011. The government’s retail sales report is the government’s first look each month at consumer spending, which drives roughly 70 percent of economic activity. Overall, consumer spending on goods and services grew only 1.5 percent in the April-June quarter, the slowest pace in a year. Americans are also saving more. The savings rate — the portion of Americans’ after-tax income that they don’t spend — rose to 4.4 percent in June, the highest in a year. Gunman in Texas shootout killed by officers COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — The gunman in a deadly shootout near Texas A&M University had multiple weapons, fired numerous times and was fatally wounded by officers who responded to reports of gunfire, police said Tuesday. Police would not say whose gunfire struck the six others in Monday’s shootout, including a constable and a bystander who died from their wounds. Thomas Alton Caffall III, 35, had “some long guns and pistols” in his home, College Station Police Chief Jeff Capps said Tuesday, but would not give details and did not say whether the weapons had been obtained legally. “The crime scene is still being processed,” Capps said. “That will go on. It covers a couple of blocks.” Brazos County Constable Brian Bachmann, 41, was fatally wounded by Caffall as he approached the rental home to deliver an eviction notice Monday. College Station resident Chris Northcliff was described by police as being at least 100 yards away when he was mortally wounded. Police confirmed his age Tuesday as 51; earlier, they said he was 43. Capps said he wasn’t aware of any previous law enforcement contact with the gunman. Just after noon Monday, College Station police began fielding frantic 911 calls about gunfire in the neighborhood near the university’s football stadium. Responding officers found Bachmann, 41, shot on the lawn of the house. “Either upon approach to the house or shortly after, it appears he was shot by the suspect,” Capps said Tuesday. Bachmann was a police instructor, one-time Officer of the Year and a married father of two. FISH DAY!!!

The project is being financed by a combination of state and local funding through the Ohio School Facilities Commission (OSFC) and includes a new high school addition to the existing Southern Elementary School. “In 2011, the Ohio General Assembly made the first changes in the state’s method of performing public construction in over 134 years,” said OSFC Executive Director Richard Hickman. “These changes, collectively known as Ohio Construction Reform, allow for the use of alternative construction delivery methods that are faster, more flexible and, in many instances, delivered at a lower cost. I commend Southern Local School District for deciding to take advantage of the benefits that general contracting will bring to this project.” Ohio Construction Reform retains the multiple-prime design-bid-build project delivery method, but gives public owners a number of other project delivery options including general contracting (single prime), design-build and construction manager at risk. The general contractor is Kinsale Corporation of Pomeroy, Ohio. The firm was awarded the $10.6 million contract through a competitive bid process. According to Hickman, more than a dozen other school districts are considering using one or more of the alternative construction delivery methods because they can reduce construction costs and get students into new buildings more quickly. Hickman added, “The Commission encourages school districts to use any of the alternative delivery method options that help them build quality facilities on time and on budget.” Ohio Dems sue GOP governor to get public schedules COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio Democrats sued GOP Gov. John Kasich on Tuesday to get access to public schedules they allege could show he’s misusing state time to campaign for Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney. The lawsuit came the same day Kasich appeared with Romney on a campaign swing through the battleground state. The action filed in Franklin County Common Pleas Court charges Kasich with violating state public records law by failing to produce copies of his public schedules. Ohio Democratic Chairman Chris Redfern said the party’s request has been pending for 42 days. Kasich’s spokesman called the lawsuit political. Rob Nichols said the office has complied with the law and released the schedule upon request at least six times, including to the Ohio Democratic Party. “This is predictable electionyear politics from the same people who were just rebuked for using public records demands to interfere with the Auditor of State’s investigation into possible data manipulation in some school districts,” Nichols said. That investigation by Auditor Dave Yost is ongoing. In 2008, then-Gov. Ted Strickland campaigned for two Democratic presidential contenders, first Hillary Rodham Clinton and then Barack Obama, during Ohio campaign appearances. It is common for governors to both appear with presidential candidates on the campaign trail and to help them raise money in the state. Jerid Kurtz, a spokesman for the Ohio Democratic Party, said the dispute is primarily over Kasich’s response to the records request. “While past governors and current statewide officeholders campaign, they comply with the law,” Kurtz said. “We’ve seen Gov. Kasich take questionably timed actions that seem to use his public office to attack the president and benefit Mitt Romney. Combined with the alarming lack of transparency, we’d just like to know what’s going on.” After false starts backing former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Kasich remained neutral in the state’s Republican primaries in March. He had relationships from his congressional days with at least two other presidential hopefuls, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich.

Less meat might get inspected. Furloughs will likely sweep across the government. Even the weather service could be affected. The looming funding crisis in domestic spending is the result of automatic across-the-board cuts that go into effect Jan. 2 because of Washington’s inability — so far — to reach a budget deal for achieving less red ink in the future. The idea behind the automatic cuts, called a sequester in Washington parlance, was to force the warring sides to agree on a deal to slash out-of-control deficits that currently require the government to borrow 33 cents of every dollar it spends. The sequester was intentionally designed to be harsh if the negotiators couldn’t agree — and they haven’t yet. Military personnel would be exempt from the cuts, but neither Congress nor the White House would be spared. While Republican defense hawks are up in arms over $55 billion in cuts that would slam the Pentagon next year and wreak havoc in the jobs-rich defense industry, there’s been relatively little attention paid to a matching $55 billion cut from domestic programs. And those are the cuts most Americans are likely to notice. “The situation on the domestic side is just as bad as the situation on the defense side, but you don’t have as many contractors who are willing to lobby and scream publicly,” said budget expert Richard Kogan of the liberal-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. The impact of the cuts is shrouded in both debate and mystery. Alarmists warn that smaller airports would have to close for lack of air traffic controllers and say meat plants could be temporarily shuttered for a lack of inspectors. Others say agency managers will be able to mitigate much of the impact, especially if the automatic cuts are turned off after a short while. Some of the biggest and most important programs are exempt from the cuts entirely: Social Security, Medicaid, food stamps, veterans’ health care and federal employee pensions. Medicare cuts would be limited to 2 percent. 60342938 �The Daily Sentinel WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2012 Sports mdssports@heartlandpublications.com Marauders earn 1st win of season at Athens Bryan Walters bwalters@mydailytribune.com ATHENS, Ohio — The Meigs golf team started its 2012 campaign in style Monday afternoon during a 5-stroke victory over host Athens in a Tri-Val- ley Conference Ohio Division matchup at Athens Country Club. The Marauders (1-0 TVC Ohio) posted a four-man team score of 193 in the league dual, while the Bulldogs (0-1) ended the day with a team tally of 198. MHS senior Treay McKinney earned medalist honors on the day with a low round of 41 on the front nine, one of only three golfers to post sub-50 rounds on the day. Chris Folmer was next for Meigs with an even round of 50, while the duo of Taylor Rowe and Braden Spencer rounded out the team scoring with matching efforts of 51. Derik Hill and Mitchell Metz also had respective scores of 62 and 76 for the Maroon and Gold. Michael Frame and Jake Pratt both paced Athens with identical rounds of 42, followed by Adam Cutright with a 51.

The Daily Sentinel • Page 8 Tiger’s biggest threat in pursuit of major record KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. (AP) — The next major is eight months away. The next showdown is nine days away. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are assured of being paired together next week at The Barclays for the start of the FedEx Cup playoffs. And while these playoff events are more about making money than making history, this could become meaningful down the road. Woods has never faced a rival with this kind of potential. He has never won at least three times in a year without being looked upon as the undisputed best player in golf. For the first time in his quest to break Jack Nicklaus’ record in the majors, the biggest challenge for Woods is no longer overcoming a failed marriage, four knee surgeries, a tender Achilles tendon or even the fact that he’s simply getting older. It’s another player. McIlroy and Woods have played in the same tournament 12 times this year. McIlroy has finished ahead of Woods seven times, including wins at the Honda Classic and the PGA Championship. They both tied for 40th at the Masters. McIlroy has seven top 5s in those events, along with three missed cuts. This is not about where they were at a similar stage in their careers. Woods is incomparable in that regard. McIlroy has won twice in his first 16 majors as a pro. Woods won five majors in that span, including the career Grand Slam at age 24. It’s about where they are now. So dominant was McIlroy at Kiawah Island, where he had rounds of 67-66 on the weekend to win the PGA Championship by eight Lisa Marie Miller/Columbus Dispatch/MCT photo Tiger Woods reacts after his flop shot from the rough went in for a birdie in the 16th hole during the Memorial Tournament at the Muirfield Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio on June 3, 2012. shots, that it’s easy to get caught up in all things Rory. He is only 23, younger by some four months than when Woods won his second major, and he is doing things only thought possible by Woods. A record score at the U.S. Open last summer at Congressional. A record margin of victory at the PGA Championship on Sunday at Kiawah Island. McIlroy has won two majors by a combined 16 shots. To put that in perspective, only five majors have been won by eight shots or more in the last 35 years — three by Woods, two by McIlroy. But let’s see how this plays out. McIlroy could turn out to be like Johnny Miller, a comet on the golf horizon in the 1970s when he fired at flags and slaughtered the competition. Miller won two majors, with a 63 on the last day at Oakmont and a 66 in the final round at Royal Birkdale. Perhaps McIlroy will be like Tom Watson, who was 10 years younger than Nicklaus. Nicklaus already had the record for most majors when Watson won his first one, although Watson kept him from winning more. He beat Nicklaus twice in 1977, in the Masters and in the “Duel in the Sun” at Turnberry. He beat him again in 1981 at Augusta National and kept him from a record five U.S. Open titles in 1982 at Pebble Beach when Watson chipped in for birdie on the 17th hole. McIlroy is 13 years younger than Woods. They have never gone head-to-head on Sunday in a major. Ultimately, that will be the measure. Along the way, however, McIlroy is stashing away large bits of confidence that few others could when Woods was at his peak. There is no reason for McIlroy to be intimidated. His name on the leaderboard means just as much. He is a favorite in any color shirt. Barstow 40-40—80, Nick Wyrick 48-54—102, Graham Keynes 50-49—99.

You also might tend to get angry far more easily. You might be dealing with a low-level depression. If so, make a point to see the appropriate person for help. Why carry around extra baggage if you don’t need to? If you are single, screen the people you meet and take your time getting to know a potential suitor. Remember, time is your ally. If you are attached, the two of you need private time as a couple. CANCER makes a good healer for you. 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 Deal with a personal matter. You easily could be overwhelmed by what is on your plate. A partner or close loved one could become withdrawn. You cannot change this person’s mood — only he or she can. Do not push so hard to get your way. Tonight: Let your inner child out. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Important communication needs to take place in the morning. In the afternoon, you’ll want to concentrate and could close the door if you are at the office. If you are retired, you might indulge in a lengthy nap. In any case, be sure to slow down. Tonight: Relax. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Make sure you stay on top of your finances. They could go up and down rather quickly right now. By midday, you’ll discover your voice and the power of your words once more. Know that you do not need to settle. You have a lot going for you. Tonight: Hang out. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You flourish in the morning. You might even want to take off in the afternoon and do some shopping. Take time to browse around at a favorite store for a great card or gift to let someone know how much you care. Tonight: Indulge a little. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You feel empowered by midafternoon, though you might have had several difficult and challenging people to deal with prior to that. Problems and hassles wash over you like water. You might want to gather a group of people together or use a meeting to establish boundaries. Tonight: The world is your oyster. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Use the daylight hours to the max. Be careful with your anger — it could cause you to overspend or overindulge right now. Strong communication between you and someone else marks the afternoon. You might discover that the outcome will break down barriers. Tonight: Not to be found. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You could be oversensitive or difficult, even into the afternoon. You might not realize that you are testing your limits. You will find that you have a lot to smile about if you could just relax and be yourself. Tonight: Where the action is. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Make an important call in the morning. What you did not count on is a brainstorming session emerging from an obstacle you encounter. Two minds work better than one, especially in this case. Accept responsibilities. Tonight: Could go into the wee hours. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH A close friend, loved one or associate demands a lot of your time and attention. Curb an element of frustration that could mount when in a meeting or while dealing with someone whose issues are stopping you from getting to a key call or conversation. Tonight: Tap into your imagination. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Others seek you out in the morning.

Tonight: Spend quality time with a loved one. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Throw yourself into your daily routine, and focus on clearing out as much as possible. By midday, others will seek you out, one after the other. You might call it a form of networking, but really you are responding to others’ requests. Tonight: Break into more fun. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Your imagination assumes the lead, no matter what you do this morning. Maintain a sense of humor. You might be overserious in dealing with someone you perceive to be a difficult person. Treat him or her normally. Tonight: Dinner with a favorite person.

The No. 22 overall draft pick said after practice Tuesday that new Browns offensive coordinator Brad Childress suggested he work on it in front of a mirror. “I can’t say I’ve done it in front of a mirror, but I did talk to myself in my hotel room last week,” Weeden said. And that was before fumbling, throwing an interception and going just 3-for-9 for 62 yards in his debut in Detroit. However, it didn’t rattle his confidence. If anything, it made Weeden more determined, according to coach Pat Shurmur. “He’s a very resilient guy. So when he has a bad play or two, or a bad series or two, I see him bounce back extremely well,” Shurmur said. Weeden said taking only 15 snaps in Detroit made it look worse because he didn’t get a chance to get into rhythm. That will change Thursday night in Green Bay, when Weeden and the first-team offense are scheduled to play at least two quarters. “Numbers are deceiving,” Weeden said. “I’m excited to get back out there and correct the mistakes I made last week.” His fumble kept the Browns (No. 30 in the AL Pro32) from scoring on their first drive, to the Detroit 23. “That was the one I would really like to have back, because it took (at least) three points off the board,” he said. Weeden may get one of his primary targets back. Shurmur said Mohammed Massaquoi, who caught Weeden’s first pro pass for a 12-yard gain, may face the Packers. Massaquoi was hit hard and removed in Detroit under the NFL’s new rule guarding against concussions. The fourth-year receiver said Tuesday he feels fine. Shurmur wants Weeden to work as much as possible. He expects an efficient offense because of it. “You like to see completions,” S l body Headline1:placed Byline1:placed hurmur said. “You like to see if the ball is thrown down field, again you get completions. You obviously want to score points, but you want to see the quarterback manage scoring drives and do it efficiently.” Second-year receiver Greg Little said Weeden is getting better at finding a number of receivers and joked that he now has to bribe Weeden to throw him the ball. “Last week, I sent him cookies,” Little said. “This week, maybe some fruit to keep him healthy.” More importantly, Little spends extra time working with Weeden on pass routes. Shurmur said that after a pass intended for Little was intercepted by the Lions, the duo practiced that particular play repeatedly the next chance they got. “We go over everything together,” Little said. “We talk, do some work after practices. He’s very talented. He can make all the throws. If he is late with a read, he can make up for it with his arm.” Childress coached star quarterbacks Donovan McNabb in Philadelphia and Brett Favre in Minnesota. He’s impressed with Weeden’s skills and aggressiveness, and doesn’t want to hold him back from developing the reputation as a go-for-broke passer. “You rarely want to sit on that ability,” Childress said. “A lot of times discretion is the better part of that valor of trying to stick it through the eye of a needle. But we want him to be aggressive. We want him to keep shooting.” Weeden said he’ll keep throwing. “I am not scared to throw the ball in the end zone,” he said. “There is just a fine line. You have to know the situation. Three points is not the end of the world. I want to score every time we touch the football, but sometimes the defense wins (and you settle for a field goal). You guys have seen me enough in practice, I am not scared to throw the ball to the back of the end zone.” As Weeden develops, a battle remains for the backup spot. Former starter Colt McCoy will be the No. 2 man in Green Bay, followed by Seneca Wallace. “There is no big reason. That’s just the way I want to do it,” Shurmur said. McCoy missed connections with several receivers and had some drops Tuesday. Wallace was a tad more consistent. He had one pinpoint pass in the end zone dropped by Rod Windsor. Wallace has spent most of his 10 years in the NFL as a backup. That factor could give him an edge. “It’s got to be somebody that is able to deal with limited reps and still be able to put things in play,” Childress said. NOTES: Practice was held indoors due to rain. … Cleveland claimed DL Ronnie Cameron on waivers from Chicago and waived FB Eddie Williams. With Phil Taylor (pectoral surgery), Scott Paxson (right ankle) and Frostee Rucker (right knee) out, Cameron, a rookie from Old Dominion, will get a look. … WR Travis Benjamin, impressive early in camp, has not practiced since leaving with an undisclosed injury in Detroit. … McCoy twice found rookie WR Jason Cooper for scores during red zone work. … Rookie DB Emmanuel Lewis jumped a route and picked a Weeden pass. … TEs Alex Smith and Evan Moore had drops over the middle. With more teams in race, MLB attendance up again Dave Campbell AP Sports Writer The extra playoff spot in Major League Baseball this season has thickened the races, with several teams well within October’s reach despite taking mediocre records into the stretch run. That’s having an impact in the seats — as has some good weather, signs of life in the economy and other factors. MLB-wide attendance is up 60340813 again, about 4 percent from 2011. “There are more teams that have a shot, so it’s given teams a lot of hope,” said Lou DePaoli, chief marketing officer for the Pittsburgh Pirates. MLB’s eight best season attendance totals have all come in the last eight years, and this one is on pace to keep that run going. The major league average of 31,516 through Monday was up 4.3 percent from 2011’s final average of 30,229, according to STATS LLC, but remains below the pre-recession highs of 32,785 in 2007 and 32,528 the following year. The average usually declines in September, after schools are back in session. The defending World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals have been selling an average of 3,383 more tickets per game from last year, even after losing megastar Albert Pujols. They’re on track to hit the 3 million mark for the 14th time in the last 15 seasons. Though the Royals are sputtering, having the All-Star game in Kansas City sparked sales a bit. They’re up 3,204 per game. “I think that shows how the economy is rebounding,” said Mike Swanson, vice president of communications and broadcasting. He also pointed to the team’s young core of Billy Butler, Alex Gordon and Mike Moustakas that’s helped create interest. The National Leagueleading Cincinnati Reds got a preseason bump from new contracts for stars Joey Votto, Brandon Phillips and Sean Marshall and the trade for Mat Latos, and they’re up 1,296 per game. Their average of 29,192 tickets sold per game is on pace to beat the Great American Ball Park record from the stadium’s opening in 2003. The Detroit Tigers shelled out for prize free agent Prince Fielder and are filling 7,328 more seats per game than last year. The Boston Red Sox have a sellout streak at Fenway Park that started on May 15, 2003, despite another disappointing season on the field — though sellout numbers can be deceiving to the eye at the ballpark because what counts are tickets sold, not people through the turnstiles. After setting a franchise attendance record last season, the two-time defending American League champion Texas Rangers have topped themselves again by averaging 43,607 per game, an increase of 6,848, more than 18 percent.
