Live wire
kills one,

MIDDLEPORT — A job
repairing gutters turned deadly on Monday afternoon when
one local man was killed
and another injured in
Middleport.
According to the Middleport Police Department, witnesses who were on the scene
advised two men were on the
roof of Manley’s Recycling
for repairs when a live electric wire was hit with the gutter. Meigs EMS Director
Doug Lavender said the men
apparently had come into contact with a bee hive before the
gutter hit the power line.
Emergency personnel from
Meigs EMS transported one
victim, a 35-year-old Meigs
County man, to Holzer
Medical Center where he was
later pronounced dead. The
other, a 25-year old man also
from Meigs County, was
flown by air medical helicopter to Cabell Huntington
Hospital for treatment of his
injuries.
The names of the men have
not been released, according
to the Middleport Police
Department. According to Jeff
Rennie, spokesperson for
American Electric Power, the
lines appear to be owned by
AEP and a crew was on its
way to inspect any damage.
Rennie said it didn’t appear
any outages had been reported
in the Middleport area near
the scene on Monday.
Investigating the accident is
Lt. Mony Wood who was
called to scene shortly before
1 p.m. on Monday. The local
men were reportedly selfemployed contractors.

Ohioan, 94, wakes
up to blimp that
landed in yard
W O RT H I N G T O N ,
Ohio (AP) — A 94-yearold Ohio woman who
woke up to discover that
a breakaway blimp from
a nearby airport had
landed in her backyard
said she heard a bang
during stormy weather
but didn’t realize what
happened until police
knocked on her door
about seven hours later.
The
128-foot-long
blimp broke free of its
moorings at a Columbus
airport during strong
winds early Sunday, then
drifted to the sky, headed
eastward and landed in
Lillian
Bernhagen’s
backyard in Worthington,
less than two miles from
Ohio State University’s
Don Scott airfield. No
one was aboard and no
injuries were reported.
The remnants of a battered blimp were draped
over Bernhagen’s picnic
table and birdfeeders,
covering half her backyard.
“I looked out the window and I said, ‘Wow!’”
she said.
Storms had limited the
options authorities had to
find the blimp until it
was
spotted
in
Bernhagen’s yard. The
Federal
Aviation
Administration tried to
locate it via radar, while
its owners tried to see it
from the ground, said
state police spokesman
Lt. Rudy Zupanc.
As crews dismantled
and inspected the blimp
Sunday
morning,

Bernhagen snapped photos to share with relatives
and talked about the surprise that forced her to
miss her church service.
“It really is quite an
occasion to have a blimp
land in your yard,” she
said.
Bernhagen said it
appeared the blimp,
which was removed by
mid-afternoon, had toppled a small tree and
slightly bent a corner
awning along her roof
but didn’t do any major
damage to her home.
“I didn’t expect to see
one on the ground,” she
said. “I’ve only ever seen
one in the air.”
The blimp advertises
Hangar 1 Vodka and is on
a tour of about 20 cities
under the direction of an
Orlando, Fla.-based airship advertiser called
The Lightship Group,
said Toby Page, the
group’s marketing director. The blimp won’t
make its next planned
stop in Detroit on
Thursday.
“TLG will investigate
what happened, but at
this time there’s nothing
to indicate that it was
anything more than a
freak
thunderstorm,”
Page said Sunday afternoon, noting he had no
concerns about how the
blimp was tethered at the
airport.
Asked whether she
might try the vodka,
Bernhagen joked that she
might need a drink after
such a ruckus.

HARTFORD, Conn.
(AP) — American Red
Cross
workers
in
Connecticut authorized
their contract negotiators
Sunday to call a strike, if
necessary, to reach an
agreement with the
agency.
Larry
Dorman,
a
spokesman
for
the
AFSCME Local 3145,
would not release the
vote totals but said a
"clear margin" was in
favor of authorizing a
strike. He said Red Cross
workers in other states
also will be taking strike
authorization votes this
week.
Some 200 nurses, technicians and other professionals in Connecticut are
represented
by
the
American Federation of
State
County
and
Municipal Employees,
Dorman said. A coalition

of unions represents nearly 4,000 Red Cross workers.
Their contract expired
in April 2009 but there
have been few talks,
Dorman said.
Still, he said, "It
remains our goal to try to
reach an agreement at the
negotiating table."
Donna M. Morrissey, a
Red Cross spokeswoman
for the Connecticut
region, expressed disappointment with the vote.
"We are disappointed
that union leaders are
seeking another strike at
a time when the need for
blood is high and supplies are tight, and hope
that AFSCME leaders
will agree to continue
negotiations...," she said
in a statement.
The union says the Red
Cross

ignored
requests to bargain and is

Police say a water
balloon would have
been capable of causing damage, given the
speeds of the two vehicles.
Minic tells a local

television station that
detectives told her
they’ve
had
other
reports of water balloons being hurled at
cars in the same area.
There were no immediate reports of any
arrests.

Let the Perry hatred begin
BY RICH LOWRY
Texas Gov. Rick Perry
is about to stride purposefully through every
cultural tripwire in the
country.
He may not become as
despised as Sarah Palin,
but that's because he'll
never be a pro-life
woman -- the accelerant
for the conflagration of
Palin-hatred. The disdain
for Perry won't burn as
hot, but it'll burn just as
true. He'll become a
byword for Red State
simplemindedness in The
New York Times and an
object of derision for
self-appointed cultural
sophisticates
everywhere.
You could be mistaken
for thinking that Perry set
out from his infancy to
trample
on
certain
Eastern
sensibilities.
Born in nowheresville

Texas to a family of cotton farmers. An Eagle
Scout. Attendance at
Texas A&amp;M, where he
was a "yell leader" -basically a male cheerleader -- and in ROTC.
After earning a degree in
animal science and serving in the Air Force, he
entered politics and eventually ascended to the
governorship in the wake
of another hated Texan -George W. Bush.
Perry makes Bush look
like sniveling elitist, what
with his patrician, highly
credentialed
family.
Perry went to Paint Creek
Rural School in Haskell,
Texas; Bush went to
Phillips Academy in
Andover, Massachusetts,
and then on to Yale and
Harvard.
Perry is a great partisan
of Texas and has mused
about it leaving the
union. He's an evangeli-

cal Christian, who unembarrassedly prays in public and for his state. He's
a tea partier who extols
the Constitution and
seeks a drastically limited federal government.
He's a law-and-order
conservative in a state
that still executes people.
It'd be almost impossible to come up with a
background and cluster
of affiliations so provocative. Texas has all the
negative charge for liberals that Massachusetts
does for conservatives.
Perry will be branded as
a backward, dimwitted,
heartless
neoConfederate. A walking,
talking threat to the separation of church and state
who doesn't realize people like him were supposed to slink away after
the Scopes trial 90 years
ago.
Surely there can't be

anything wrong with
being an Eagle Scout?
Such is the culture war
that even the Scouts are
controversial. In some
quarters, they are considered notoriously anti-gay.
A few years ago, Perry
wrote a polemical booklength defense of the
institution, "On My
Honor:
Why
the
American Values of the
Boy Scouts Are Worth
Fighting For."
The title speaks of an
author who is an incorrigible square, another
Perry offense. In a photo
of him at Texas A&amp;M,
wearing white sneakers
and his Yell Leader
sweater, he looks like the
guy we're always supposed to root against in
movies about college
life. Perry apparently
lacks all ironic detachment, the quality that so
endears
liberals
to

President Barack Obama
even though they constantly exhort him to
become a fighter.
Obama officials have
already signaled they will
attack Mitt Romney as
weird if he's the
Republican nominee. If
it's Perry instead, they
will surely pursue a similar line against him as
bizarrely retrograde and
altogether too Texas -George W. Bush, only
more so.
The cultural static
around Perry could well
distract from his core
economic message. He'd
do well, as he began to do
in his announcement
speech, to cast his personal story and his state
in terms of aspiration.
Rural life, the Scouts, the
military and his faith
inculcated in him the
virtues necessary to success, and he lived in a

state wide open and free
enough for him to rise.
No matter how big his
belt buckle and his
boots, Perry should
work to belie the image
of Texas. It's not the TV
show "Dallas" of 30
years ago. It's a dynamic
state that has created
jobs to absorb a population growth of 20 percent during the past 10
years. It has thriving big
cities and a diverse
economy no longer
exclusively dependent
on
the
oil-and-gas
industry. It has close ties
to Mexico and a large
Latino population.
Perry can say all that
and more, but it won't
matter. He'll still be
hated.

A golden decade for defense companies is ending
BY JONATHAN
FAHEY
AP BUSINESS WRITER

NEW YORK (AP) —
The wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan are winding
down, Osama bin Laden
is dead, and the federal
government is deeply in
debt. This spells the end
of what was a golden
decade for the defense
industry.
In the decade since the
Sept. 11 attacks, the
annual defense budget
has more than doubled to
$700 billion and annual
defense industry profits
have nearly quadrupled,
approaching $25 billion
last year.
Now defense spending

is poised to retreat, and
so are industry profits.
“We’re about to go into
the downhill side of the
roller coaster here,” said
David Berteau, a defense
industry analyst at the
Center for Strategic and
International Studies.
Congress agreed last
month to cut military
spending by $350 billion
over the next 10 years.
The defense budget will
automatically be cut by
another $500 billion over
that period if lawmakers
fail to reach a deficit-cutting deal by November.
Defense
industry
stocks have already
begun to suffer; they are
lagging the S&amp;P 500 in
recent months. During

downturn, which lasted
from 1985 to 1997,
defense stocks underperformed the broader market by 33 percent,
according to an analysis
by RBC Capital Markets.
The Sept. 11 attacks
forced
the
world’s
biggest and best-funded
military to quickly retool
itself. It needed to develop
technologies,
weapons and strategies to
find and fight an elusive
network of terrorists that
seemed more sophisticated and dangerous than
ever imagined.
The U.S. spent $1.3
trillion in the ten years
following the attacks
chasing al-Qaida and
fighting two wars. That
was on top of baseline

military spending in
excess of $4 trillion.
“After 9/11 the floodgates opened,” says Eric
Hugel, a defense industry
analyst at Stephens Inc.
The defense budget
grew from $316 billion
in 2001 to $708 billion
in 2011. Federal spending on homeland security, which includes everything from airport security to border control,
also rose dramatically.
Last year dozens of federal agencies, including
the
Department
of
Homeland
Security,
spent $70 billion on such
programs, according to
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget. That’s up from
$37 billion in 2003, the

Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging the
freedom of speech, or of the press;
or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a
redress of grievances.
The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution

first year after DHS was
formed.
All that spending was
reflected in the soaring
performance of the
defense industry, led by
the top five defense contractors:
Lockheed
Martin,
Boeing,
Northrop
Grumman,
General Dynamics and
Raytheon.
In 2001, revenues for
U.S.-based defense contractors totaled $217 billion, according to data
compiled by the analytics firm Capital IQ. By
2010 revenues had
grown to $386 billion.
Profits grew more than
twice as fast over the
same time period, from
$6.7 billion to $24.8 billion. Contractors based

abroad, such as BAE
Systems, also flourished. BAE was the
sixth biggest defense
contractor in 2010, with
$7.2 billion in U.S. military contracts.
Stock prices of defense
companies in the S&amp;P
500 index have risen 67
percent since September
11. The index as a whole
climbed 8 percent in that
period.
Military spending typically
rises
during
wartime and falls during
peacetime. But after
Sept. 11, and as the wars
in Iraq and Afghanistan
evolved, it became clear
the country needed to
spend money on very different military technologies and strategies.

Stocks rise after acquisition flurry
BY STAN CHOE
AP BUSINESS WRITER

NEW YORK — The
Dow Jones industrial
average notched a threeday win streak Monday
for the first time in six
weeks. A $19 billion corporate buying spree and
encouraging economic
news from Japan sent the
Dow up 213 points and
erased its losses from last
week.
The return of what's
called “Merger Monday”
on Wall Street made
investors more optimistic
about the future. So did a
report that Japan's economy shrank less than
feared after the earthquake and tsunami there
on March 11. That helped
ease worries that the U.S.
economy may slide into
another recession.
The Dow rose 213.88
points, or 1.9 percent to
11,482.90. It has gained

763
points
since
Thursday. That's the best
three-day point gain since
it rose 927 in November
2008, during the depths
of the financial crisis.
The Dow is also up 7.1
percent over the three
days, the biggest percentage gain since it rose 9.5
percent the first three
days of the bull market in
March 2009.
The Standard &amp; Poor's
500 index rose 25.68, or
2.2 percent, to 1,204.49.
The Nasdaq composite
index rose 47.22, or 1.9
percent, to 2,555.20.
Markets may have stabilized the last three
days, but financial analysts warned investors not
to assume that stocks
have fully settled down
after last week's swings.
The Dow rose or fell by
at least 400 points in four
straight days for the first
time. The first downgrade
of the U.S. credit rating

triggered the volatility. It
was worsened by concerns that Europe's debt
problems are worsening
and that the U.S. economy is weakening.
“You might have these
moments of quiet, but the
debt crisis in Europe did
not go away,” said John
Hailer, chief executive
for the U.S. and Asia of
Natixis Global Asset
Management.
“Our
issues with the debt, with
what our tax policy is
going to be going forward, our unemployment
did not go away.”
“We are probably
going to have to look at
some very different levels
of volatility than what a
lot of investors grew up
with over the last 25 to 30
years,” he said.
A period of relative stability has been common
in past volatile markets.
In 2008, stocks plunged
between mid-September

and mid-November. From
mid-November until the
beginning of January
2009, the Dow was in a
lull of sorts. It ratcheted
up and down, mostly in
the high 8,000 range. But
in early January 2009, it
began to plunge again and
finally hit bottom at 6,547
on March 9.
Despite its three-day
gain, the Dow remains
down 9.8 percent since its
most recent high on July
21 and down 10.4 percent
since its 2011 high set on
April 29.
More swings could
come this week. Leaders
of France and Germany
meet Tuesday to discuss
Europe's debt problems.
Spain and other countries
have borrowed so much
that they may need help
to repay their bills.
Investors on Tuesday will
get an update on how
Spain's economy did during the second quarter.

Overthinking, underdoing
Dear Dr. Brothers:
Before I make any decision, whether I'm in the
grocery-store aisle picking out trash bags or
deciding what to wear for
work, my mind goes into
hyperdrive. I seem to
overthink everything, and
I can't stop! It's weird —
even on the weekends
when I have free time, I
think myself into exhaustion and wind up not getting anything done. When
Monday comes, I feel
drained. Is there any way
to stop my head from all
this reeling? — H.L.
Dear H.L.: You are a
perfect candidate to stop
— stop thinking, learn to
enjoy the moment and
reap the benefits. It seems
as though you have too
many things going on in
your head and you are in
the habit of analyzing
every last piece of data.
Try an experiment: Next
time you have to make a
decision — say, at a
restaurant, with that huge
menu in front of you —
instead of analyzing
which food groups you
want, or how many calories everything is likely to
have, or what three colors
would be attractive on the
plate, or what your date
would think of you eating
corn on the cob with your

hands — just be, as they
say.
Let your gut instincts or
emotions drive the decision, for a change. In
other words, find something that looks good to
you, and order it. Done!
This may feel like a different process to you —
one that may have a bit of
discomfort accompanying it, for you haven't justified the decision to
yourself by weighing all
the pros and cons. So,
you'll have to get used to
it. Obviously you're still
going to want to analyze
certain crucial and complex situations, but there's
no reason to use all that
brain power on something as silly as lunch.
After you stop overusing
your gray matter for a
while, you might find that

you are more relaxed and
sleeping better, too. All I
can say is just don't let
your brain get out of
practice.
***
Dear Dr. Brothers:
I've been dating this guy
for four months and he's
never once given me a
compliment on my looks.
I'm usually not the needy
type and don't need the
opinions of others to feel
validated, but it hurts my
feelings that he never
says anything nice. Last
week we went to a wedding, and everyone said
how great I looked —
except him! Am I making
too big a deal of this, or
should I take it as a sign
that he really doesn't
care? — N.F.
Dear N.F.: I don't think
you should jump to conclusions. Let's see if we
can figure out why he is
doing this and whether he
can be expected to
change. If you have to
ask him how you look, it
really doesn't help the old
self-esteem, does it? First
you need to step back and
notice his behavior with
other women. Does he
compliment them? If so,
game over. He's not into
you, or he is taking you
for granted. Secondly, do
you get a lot of praise

about your looks from
others, just not him? I'm
not checking to see if you
are compliment-worthy,
but to see what kind of an
environment he is working in. If everyone
around you comments
occasionally on your
appearance, it is possible
that your friend might
need a little push. Don't
be afraid to tell him that
you appreciate it when he
notices your hair or what
you're wearing or your
perfume. Perhaps with a
gentle push like that, he
will be right there the
next time you look fabulous and wonder if he
notices.
Once you are receiving
a little more attention,
you can encourage him
by giving him some
compliments too. Men
can use a little emotional
stroking as well, so don't
be stingy with your own
thoughts and feelings. If
there's anything that
should pay off, it's having your guy realize how
good it feels to hear a
few nice words from his
girlfriend, and that
should help you jumpstart your well-deserved
mutual admiration society.

Bradley wins PGA in playoff after rousing comeback
JOHNS CREEK, Ga.
(AP) — A rally that ranks
among the best. A collapse
hardly anyone saw coming. There was even a guy
in a red shirt Sunday,
pumping his fists with each
clutch putt in the final,
frenzied hour of the PGA
Championship.
In a major filled with
unfamiliar names, Keegan
Bradley delivered an
unforgettable finish.
Bradley was five shots
behind with only three
holes to play after his
chip shot raced across the
15th green and into the
water, leading to a triple
bogey. That’s when he
reminded himself that no
lead was safe on the final
four holes at Atlanta
Athletic Club.
“I just kept telling
myself, ‘Don’t let that hole
define this whole tournament,’” Bradley said.
Instead, it led to one of
the most stunning turnarounds in a major.
Bradley made back-toback birdies, including a
35-footer with a belly
putter that rattled into the
cup on the 17th.
Then came a monumental meltdown by Jason
Dufner. Unflappable all
afternoon, he hit his tee
shot in the water on the
15th for the first of three
straight bogeys that led to a
three-hole playoff.
Bradley birdied the
16th hole in the playoff
— his first outright lead
of the day — and went on
to win by one shot.
The son of a PGA professional in Vermont,
wearing red for his alma
mater — St. John’s —
Bradley became only the
third player in at least 100
years to win a major championship in his first try.
The Wanamaker at his
side, Bradley took out his
cell phone and took a picture of the oversized trophy. It wasn’t long before
he posted it on Twitter
with three hash tags —

“pgachampion. triplebogies. happiness.”
“It feels unbelievable,”
he said. “It seems like a
dream and I’m afraid I’m
going to wake up here in
the next five minutes and
it’s not going to be real.”
The final major of the
year was hard to believe
in so many ways.
It was Bradley, a 25year-old PGA Tour rookie who was ranked No.
108 in the world, who
ended America’s longest
drought in a major that
had reached six. He
became only the third
player in at least 100
years to win a major on
his first try.
All this after Tiger
Woods missed the cut
and finished out of the
top 100 for the first time
in a major, and U.S.
Open champion Rory
McIlroy — the favorite at
the PGA — hit a tree root
in the opening round and
played the rest of the
week with his right wrist
heavily taped. He tied for
64th and finished 19
shots behind.
Then came the finish —
a rousing rally for Bradley,
a sad collapse for Dufner.
It brought back memories
of Ed Sneed making bogey
on the last three holes of
the 1979 Masters, and even
Arnold Palmer losing a
seven-shot lead with nine
holes left in the 1966 U.S.
Open.
Dufner played that fourhole finish in 3 under for
the week — never once
making a bogey — until
the final round.
Sunday was different.
He made three bogeys in
regulation, another on the
17th in the playoff to fall
two shots behind, and a
birdie on the last hole in
the playoff only made the
score seem closer than it
was. Dufner, now winless
in 148 starts, closed with
a 69.
Bradley, best known
until now as the nephew

of LPGA great Pat
Bradley, moved to No. 29
in the world. He won earlier this year at the Byron
Nelson Championship in
a playoff, again after the
leader faded on the closing holes.
The win makes it seven
straight majors by players
who had never before captured a Grand Slam event,
the longest streak ever.
Bradley, who became
the first major champion to
use a long putter, can only
hope more will follow.
“I don’t want to be one
of the guys that kind of
disappears,”
Bradley
said. “I would love to be
up in a category with the
best players and be mentioned
with
Phil
Mickelson, one of my
idols. I hope I don’t disappear. I don’t plan to.”
Mickelson had been the
last American to win a
major at the 2010 Masters,
and perhaps it was only fitting that one of his proteges ended the drought.
Mickelson has been playing money games during
practice rounds at the big
tournaments with Bradley,
wanting him to be prepared to play for something more prestigious
than cash. The kid must
have taken the lessons to
heart.
Bradley was two shots
behind when he arrived
at the pivotal stretch of
the course. From left of
the 15th green, he hit an
aggressive chip that came
out too hot and rolled
into the water, leading to
a triple bogey.

AP Photo/Matt Slocum
Keegan Bradley celebrates on the 18th green after winning a three-hole playoff
against Jason Dufner at the PGA Championship golf tournament Sunday, at the
Atlanta Athletic Club in Johns Creek, Ga.

Bradley stuffed his shot
into 8 feet for birdie on the
16th. Behind him in the
final group, Dufner hit into
the right bunker, blasted
out to 10 feet and made
bogey. Now his lead was
down to two shots.
Dufner arrived on the
17th tee in time to watch as
Bradley rattled in a 35-foot
putt, pumping his fists as
his caddie stood behind the
hole holding the flag over
his head with both arms.
Dufner did well to find the
middle of the green for
what appeared to be a safe
two-putt par. But he ran his
first putt 10 feet by the hole
and three-putted for
bogey.Just like that, they
were tied.
With the pressure as

great as it had been all day,
both played the 18th the
same way — dry. Both had
long two-putts for par from
one side of the green to the
other. They finished at 8under 272.
Dufner’s 5-iron on the
opening hole of the playoff — the uphill 16th —
came within an inch of
hitting the hole and
stopped 6 feet away.
Bradley answered with a
shot into 4 feet and made
the birdie, while Dufner
missed his putt.
They finished one shot
ahead of Hansen, whose
lone bogey of the final round
— on the 16th hole — kept
him out of the playoff. The
Dane closed with a 66,
matching the best score of

the final round.
The group tied for
fourth included 2001
champion David Toms
(67) and two others who
stayed in the game until
the very end.
Robert Karlsson got
within one shot of the
lead with a 5-foot eagle
putt on the 12th hole. The
Swede never made
another birdie, though,
and finished with three
straight bogeys for a 67.
Scott Verplank holed out
a bunker shot on the 16th
and was tied with
Bradley going to the
17th, but his tee shot
bounced off the wall and
into the water for a double bogey. He closed
with a 70.

CINCINNATI (AP) —
So much for getting rookie quarterback Andy
Dalton a little confidence
in his pro debut.
Dalton’s first pass was
well off-target and intercepted. His second was
severely overthrown. Bengals coach Marvin Lewis
left his offense in for the
entire first half of Cin-cinnati’s preseason opener,
hoping to get a score
against the Lions’ backups.
Couldn’t even do that.
The Bengals are trying

to get over a numbing 343 loss in Detroit on Friday
night that was their most
lopsided preseason defeat
in franchise history.
“Yeah, it definitely didn’t start the way we wanted it to,” Dalton said.
The fresh start looked
more like old times.
The Bengals ditched their
old offense and coordinator
Bob Bratkowski following
their 4-12 finish last season
that included 10 straight
losses. It was so grim that
franchise
quarterback
Carson Palmer decided to
retire rather than play another game for the Bengals.
Cincy hired Jay Gruden
as offensive coordinator,
installed his West Coast system and drafted Dalton in
the second round to replace
Palmer. They were ready for
some growing pains with a
rookie quarterback and a
rookie receiver — firstround pick A.J. Green.

From the start, it was a
big ouch.
“A lot of work to do,”
Lewis said. “I knew it
coming in.”
All it took was 30 minutes for everyone else to
see it, too.
The Bengals opened the
game by giving up a touchdown on the opening drive,
fumbling the kickoff and
allowing another touchdown. They were down
14-0 before a nervous
Dalton got on the field.
On his first play, Dalton
tried to get the ball deep to
Green along the right sideline. He leaned back to give
himself more time against
the pass rush and wound up
severely underthrowing the
ball toward the middle of
the field. Chris Houston’s
interception was as easy as
it could be.
“There’s a lot of anticipation of me coming into
the first snap of the game,”

Dalton said. “And then
they score, they kick off
and we fumble the kickoff.
So there’s more of that
anticipation. And then the
first play wasn’t how I
wanted it to happen.”
Lewis fumbled his
words trying to find the
right way to describe the
moment.
“You don’t want the ball
left inside,” Lewis said.
“From that, that’s ... you
know.”
The Lions helped the
Bengals out immensely,
repeatedly getting penalties for late hits or roughing the passer. Cincinnati
still couldn’t get into the
end zone, managing only
one field goal against
Detroit’s starting unit.
So, Lewis kept Dalton
and most of the starters in
for the second quarter,
when the Lions had their
reserves running around.
They still failed to get into

Blue Devils win SEOAL
opener at Portsmouth

PORTSMOUTH, Ohio
— An impressive first
week, capped off in style.
After accumulating a
perfect 22-0 record and
three event victories to
start the 2011 season, the
Gallia Academy golf program finished its first week
of the year with a 4-shot
win in the Southeastern
Ohio Ath-letic League
opener held Friday at Elks
Country Club in Scioto
County.
The Blue Devils — who
captured the Portsmouth
Invitational on the same
course just 24 hours earlier
— opened league play on a
solid note, posting a winning team score of 155.
Logan was the runner-up
with a tally of 159, followed by Warren (169),
Jackson (177), Chillicothe
(179) and Portsmouth
(182).
It was the first of six
matches between SEOAL
members this season, with
each team hosting one
match apiece. The six
matches will determine the
overall league championship, instead of the oneday, winner-take-all format
used in previous seasons.
The Blue Devils recorded
two of the three sub-40
rounds on the day and had
four of the top eight individual rounds — including the
low score of the day.

par round of 34 to bring
home medalist honors, finishing two shots ahead of
Logan’s Kris Cummings.
Boeing Smith was third
overall with a round of 39
for Gallia Academy.
The key for the Blue
Devils on Friday, however,
was the solid play of their
five and six golfers, seniors
Derrick Gilmore and
Daniel Rees — who fired
matching rounds of 41.
Corey Arthur and Rob
Canady — who had scored
consistently for GAHS in
the first three matches of
the week — struggled with
identical rounds of 43.
The matching 41s by
Gilmore and Rees allowed

the Blue Devils to finish
four shots better than the
scores by Arthur and
Canady, which just happened to be the same margin of victory over Logan
and the rest of the SEOAL
field.
Fourth-year GAHS golf
coach Corey Luce commented that it was a great
start to league play, seeing
the depth of his program
come through in the clutch.
“I’m really happy with
our overall performance.
We had a solid round
today, and today was an
important league match for
all of us,” Luce said. “I’m
proud of all the guys today,
and I am very proud of

Derrick and Daniel for
stepping up when the team
needed them. It’s a great
all-around team victory.”
All six GAHS golfers
also individually finished
in the first 19 spots, the
only school to accomplish
the feat at Portsmouth.
Cummings led the runner-up Chieftains with an
effort of par, followed by
Tristin Myers (40), Logan
Holbrook (41) and Jacob
Berry (42) to round out the
team scoring. Taylor
Reichling (43) and Caleb
Cummings (46) also competed for LHS.
Zack McKenna, Adam
Lang and Nik Gibson all
paced Warren with matching 42s, followed by identical 43s from Ian Zoller
and Steve Farley. Michael
Sams also shot a round of
44 for the Warriors.
Alec Ray led Jackson
with a 43, followed by
Tyler Williams with 44 and
matching 45s from Evan
Massie and Katie Dobbins.
Cole Massie also shot a 52
for the Ironmen.
Gabe
Preston
led
Chillicothe with a 42, followed by Tyler Morrisey
with 44 and matching 46s
by Jake Brown and Pierce
Knisley. Stephen Gilliland
and K.J. King also added
respective rounds of 55
and 56 for the Cavs.
Drew Miller paced host
PHS with a 41, followed by
Joe Amburgey with a 44
and Levi Porter with a 47.
Jacob Call rounded out the
Trojans’ scoring with a 50.

the end zone, managing
only one missed field goal
attempt. It was 24-3 at
halftime.
Dalton finished 11 of 15
for only 69 yards with one
interception. Green had
four catches for 29 yards.
The Bengals’ four quarterbacks were a combined 19
of 31 for 135 yards with
two interceptions.
“We didn’t score on
offense,” Dalton said.
“That kind of leaves a sour
taste in my mouth. I’m not
used to that.”
The game was awful allaround for the Bengals,
who had many of the same
problems on offense and
defense that they experienced last season. They
repeatedly gave up big
plays on third down and
failed to keep drives alive
when they had the ball.
“Good thing it’s the preseason,” running back
Cedric Benson said.

Browns 27, Packers 17: McCoy nearly perfect
CLEVELAND (AP) -Sometimes in practice Colt
McCoy is maddeningly
close to completing a pass,
only to have it tipped away
or even worse at the last
second.
Maybe his arm has a little more zing in a game,
even if the game doesn’t
count in the standings.
Maybe it will have even
more zip in September.
McCoy piloted three drives in the preseason opener Saturday night in
Cleveland
Browns
Stadium against the Super
Bowl champion Packers
before giving way to
Seneca Wallace in the second quarter. He wasn’t perfect in helping Pat
Shurmur to a successful
27-17 coaching debut, but
he was close.
McCoy took the Browns
to impressive touchdown
drives on two of his drives,
completed nine of 10 pass-

es for 135 yards. He took a
seat with a 152.1 passer
rating and a smile on his
face.
Josh Cribbs scored the
Browns’ first touchdown
on a 27-yard pass play
from McCoy. Cribbs
jumped to make the catch
behind the defender at the
front right corner of the
East end zone to finish off
a 5-for-5, 72-yard drive for
McCoy.
Nitpickers will point out
the cornerback Cribbs beat
on the play was Pat Lee,
normally a backup, but
pressed into a starting duty
because Packers coach
Mike McCarthy gave 14year veteran Charles
Woodson the night off.
That does not diminish
what McCoy did in his first
night running Shurmur’s
West Coast offense.
“I thought (McCoy) was
pretty sharp,” Shurmur
said. “He executed well.

He was pretty efficient
with his throws. He
worked us down the field
twice. That’s the mark of a
quarterback – getting you
in the end zone.”
McCoy connected with
three receivers plus running back Peyton Hillis on
his first drive. The Browns
were stopped without a
first down on their next
touchdown.
McCoy drove the
Browns 66 yards on five
plays in his third and
final drive. He connected
with Benjamin Watson
on back to back passes.
The first covered 19
yards to the right sideline
on third-and-three. The
next was inside for 37
yards to the Packers 3.
Hills ploughed into the
end zone to finish it off.
The Browns starting
defense gave up a touchdown on the Packers second possession when Greg

Jennings beat Sheldon
Brown on a 21-yard play
to tie the score 7-7. It was
the second and last drive
for Packers quarterback
Aaron Rodgers.
The Browns’ second
defense was no match for
the Packers second
defense. Green Bay
added a field goal in the
second quarter and took
the lead, 17-14, before
halftime on a tipped pass
caught
by
Spencer
Havner. Havner had a little luck to be in the right
place after the ball was
tipped, but the Packers
needed no luck moving
downfield; they drove 89
yards on nine plays in
1:22.
The Browns scored 10
unanswered points in the
third quarter, but only a
field goal was posted by
the offense with Wallace at
quarterback. Backup linebacker Titus Brown gave

the Browns a 24-17 lead
midway through the period
when he scooped up a
fumble by third quarterback Graham Harrell.
Undrafted
linebacker
Brian Smith stripped
Harrell to set the table for
Brown.
Third
quarterback
Jarrett Brown capped the
scoring by leading a 12play, 69-yard drive ending in a 44-yard field
goal by backup kicker
Jeff Wolfert. Wolfert
kicked a 46-yard field
goal in the third quarter.
