The Meigs County Board of Elections conﬁrmed on Monday that the Secretary of State’s Ofﬁce had approved the item to be placed on the ballot. The measure had initially been presented to the May ballot, but was not placed on the ballot due to concerns over the paperwork. Commissioner Tim Ihle said on Monday that he was glad the issue had been given the go ahead as there was a lot of new paperwork as part of the process following a change to the law earlier this summer regarding the type of ballot action being considered. Previously, the item would have had to appear on the ballot twice, once as a levy and once as a bond issue. The matter appearing twice could have led to the possibility of one being approved and one rejected which is what led to the Ohio Legislature taking steps to allow for the combination measure to appear once on the ballot. The changing of the procedures created a lot of new steps which were unfamiliar to the county, leading to the hiring of Dennis Schwallie, a Columbus based attorney. The commissioners and Sheriff Keith Wood had been working with the attorney who specializes in bond issues to ensure that the paperwork was correct prior to the ﬁling. “We broke new ground,” said Ihle of ﬁling the paperwork under the new guidelines. All of the paperwork which had been approved by the commissioners during their July 27 meeting was ﬁled with the Board of Elections on Aug. 2. The board then sent the paperwork to the Secretary of State’s Ofﬁce for ofﬁcial approval of the paperwork. Ihle explained that the commissioner’s role in the matter is complete with the paperwork submitted and approved, it is now up to the sheriff to educate the residents of the county on the proposed levy leading up to the November election. “This is giving the voters the opportunity to decide if the time is right for the county to take this step and do something big for the county moving forward,” said Ihle. After learning of the approval from the Secretary of State’s Ofﬁce, Sheriff Wood said that he is “excited for the opportunity to get out in the county and meet with residents about the proposed levy and the facility.” See LEVY | 5 Former Mayor Musser appointed to Pomeroy Council By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY — Pomeroy Village Council took steps to ﬁll one of two vacancies on council during Monday’s regular meeting which were the result of resignations during the last meeting in July.

The 46-page lawsuit was ﬁled in U.S. District Court in Chicago, a day after Emanuel announced the litigation and said the city won’t “be blackmailed” into changing its values as a welcoming city. He argued it’s unconstitutional for a city “to be coerced on a policy.” A ﬁrst order of business now that the suit has been ﬁled will be to ask a judge to put a freeze on the policy at least until the civil case plays out, said Edward Siskel, the head of City Hall’s legal department.

The ensuing National Cancer Act of 1971 has not been able to defeat cancer, but it laid the groundwork for research that has put a major dent in mortality rates. Cancer deaths fell more than 25 percent between 1990 and 2014. Researchers were rightfully alarmed when President Donald Trump’s proposed budget included a $5.8 billion cut to the National Institutes of Health, which funds much of the nation’s cancer research. Cuts of that magnitude could set researchers back years. Both Congress and the public are likely to object. During his 2016 State of the Union address, President Barack Obama announced the creation of the Cancer Moonshot Task Force, headed by then-Vice President Joe Biden, who said he was not declaring his own war on cancer but trying to ﬁnish the war Nixon started more than 45 years ago. Biden has continued his commitment to the goal since leaving ofﬁce. In June, he and his wife, Jill Biden, launched the Biden Cancer Initiative. Their venture is promoting collaboration between leading researchers and also building an open-access cancer database, which includes genomic and clinical data for cancer patients. The data aid researchers in looking for a cure, but also patients researching available treatments. More than anything, Mr. and Mrs. Biden are adding a sense of urgency to the cancer war. Their son, Beau Biden, died of a glioblastoma in May 2015. Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy died of the same type of brain tumor in 2009. And recently, it was announced that Republican Sen. John McCain also has a glioblastoma, an aggressive tumor that typically kills within 15 months of diagnosis. Cancer knows no party afﬁliation. In these days of partisan bickering, efforts to eradicate the disease should receive bipartisan support, and researchers should receive any help they need. Mr. and Mrs. Biden have energized the efforts, and now McCain’s diagnosis makes the disease even more personal for members of Congress. The American Cancer Society estimates that 1.7 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer this year. We must persevere. We cannot go wobbly in this ﬁght.

It’s not clothing. It’s rock concerts. Is there anything that measures Mitch aging more Albom than those? Contributing Once, columnist (and my “once” means the ’70s and early ’80s) there wasn’t a concert I wouldn’t go to. Billy Joel. Grateful Dead. Van Halen. Blondie. The Ramones. Dylan. Springsteen. All I needed was a ticket. Finding a ride? Bad seats? The crowd? The smell? The beach ball? All that was part of the fun. I can’t recall a show where I didn’t come out saying, “That was great!” But at some point, something changes. Don’t know why. It just does. The same way you can no longer eat a chili dog at 3 a.m. without severe consequences. It’s like that. Something turns. And things that never used to bother you bother you to no end. ——— It starts with the trafﬁc. Never used to notice. Maybe because your car was stuffed with college pals or your latest heartthrob, and you blasted the artist’s music to get in the mood. Now, you sit in the non-moving exit lane, muttering the words “This is ridiculous.” Your radio is tuned to the trafﬁc report. You tap your leg and check your watch. Once you’ve reached the parking lot, and paid some exorbitant $30 fee — and again muttered, “This is ridiculous” — you join the mob trying to get through security. Again, I never recall this bothering us when we were younger. These days, we bounce on our toes to see which turnstile has the best ﬂow. Once inside, you ﬁnd yourself snifﬁng. I don’t care who’s performing. It could be the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Someone is smoking dope. And what used to be a youthful, “Yeah! That makes it a concert!” is now a scrunched face and an eye roll and one of those “I hope they’re not driving” comments. And then the show starts. Again, when we were younger, the ﬁrst blasted notes were all that mattered. You high-ﬁved your concert-mates as if the opening number was handpicked for you. But these days, the song is less important than the six rows in front of you who just leaped to their feet, and now all you can see is their heads. And when you stand, you still can’t see the stage, because everyone is holding up a cell phone or iPad and ﬁlming the show. Or themselves. (This, by the way, cannot be written off to aging crankiness. It’s just stupid. Why come to a concert to ﬁlm it? Are you making a documentary? Listen to the dang music!) Did I mention the giant screens? These have taken over concerts. Try as you might, your eye goes to the massive displays more than the actual artists, and pretty soon, you might as well be watching a music video at home. And then a beach ball hits you. And someone spills a beer. And the seat is so small. And the bass is SO LOUD! And you start looking at your watch, strategizing when to leave in order to beat the trafﬁc. And it’s a school night. ——— Last week, I decided to go see Rod Stewart and Cyndi Lauper at the DTE Energy Center. DTE is one of those outdoor concert venues with covered seats closer in and a big lawn behind, popular in the summer, closed in the winter. The trafﬁc was, sorry, ridiculous. The ticket price ($87) was ridiculous. The “service charge” from the internet site was, I’m not kidding, $27 per ticket, and they don’t tell you that until checkout, and everything I’ve already mentioned, from the dope to the beach ball, was in full effect. iPhones. Beer. Blocked view. And yet. And yet, there was a point, deep in the show, when Rod Stewart, now in his 70s (and can you believe how many artists are out performing in their 70s? How did they get so old and we didn’t?) said he would do a “lovely song” from a 1971 album. And he sang “Reason To Believe.” And it was all worth it, because you are reminded of, sorry, kids, how much better music was back then than it is today. “If I listened, long enough to you I’d ﬁnd a way to believe That it’s all true, Knowing that you lied, straight faced While I cried Still I look to ﬁnd a reason to believe.” Come on. Find me pop lyrics today that match that. So even though going to a concert feels like root canal as you get older, music can still, as “American Pie” declared, save your mortal soul. Just don’t buy tickets on the internet. And no chili dogs after midnight. Mitch Albom is a columnist for the Detroit Free Press.

AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Hideki Matsuyama was along for the ride four years ago when he watched Tiger Woods tear apart Firestone Country Club on his way to a 61 in the second round, which tied the South course record and sent Woods to a seven-shot victory in the Bridgestone Invitational. “I just couldn’t believe that anyone could shoot 61 on this golf course,” Matsuyama said. He sure didn’t expect that from himself Sunday, especially after warming up so badly that Matsuyama wasn’t sure which the way ball was going. Some four hours later, the 25-yearold Japanese star had a place alongside Woods in the record book. Matsuyama ﬁnished with three straight birdies to cap off a runaway victory with a 9-under 61, giving him his second World Golf Championship in nine month. It was the lowest ﬁnal round in four decades at venerable Firestone, and it gave Matsuyama a ﬁve-shot victory over Zach Johnson. He ﬁnished at 16-under 264 and moved back to the top of the FedEx Cup standings. Matsuyama found more than just his swing after he left the range. He might have found the game that ﬁrst elevated him to the elite in golf last fall when he had four victories and two runner-up ﬁnishes over six straight tournaments. And the timing couldn’t be better with the PGA Championship four days away, with a Japanese nation clamoring for its ﬁrst major champion. “I hope their expectations aren’t too high,” Matsuyama said. “But my expectations really at the beginning of this week weren’t that high, either, and here we are.” He won for the third time this season, joining Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth for most on the PGA Tour. “Once he gets going, he just keeps the hammer down and keeps it going,” Rory McIlroy said. “It’s very impressive. He’s played very impressively over the past 18 months with a lot of wins and a lot of good ﬁnishes. That’s the caliber of player he is. I expect him to be right See FIRESTONE | 7 Truex wins gamble at The Glen WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (AP) — One by one they passed him as the laps dwindled at Watkins Glen International, and Martin Truex Jr. stuck to the plan. In the end, he was the one laughing in victory lane. Truex held off a charging Matt Kenseth on the ﬁnal lap and won the NASCAR Cup race on Sunday at The Glen, stretching his fuel to the triumphant end. It was the second road course victory of his career. “I’ve wanted to win here for a long time. This is a big one for our team,” Truex said. “I never ran 100 percent because I didn’t have to. I ran hard enough (on the last lap) to just try to manage that gap.” Truex gained the lead when Penske Racing’s Brad Keselowski in the No. 2 Ford and Ryan Blaney in the No. 21 Ford for the Wood Brothers were forced to pit in the ﬁnal three laps. “It’s excruciating to go that slow here and try to save that much fuel,” Truex said. “The toughest part, really, was just watching the No. 2 pass and go on, and then watching the No. 21 pass and go on. It’s like, ‘All right, if they don’t run out of gas, we’re going to look really dumb.’ Fortunately, it worked out for us.” Trailing by 3 seconds after saving fuel for several laps, Truex assumed the lead in his No. 78 Toyota when Blaney ducked into the pits as the white ﬂag was about to ﬂy. Despite a bobble and locking the brakes as Kenseth challenged on the last lap, Truex won for the fourth time this season. “He was so fast, I still couldn’t get to him,” said Kenseth, who maintained his slim points lead over Clint Bowyer for the ﬁnal slot in the playoffs with four races to go before the cutoff. “I was racing as hard as I could, trying to make as many passes as I could.” Daniel Suarez was third, the best ﬁnish of his rookie season, followed by Denny Hamlin and Bowyer. Pole-sitter Kyle Busch was seventh. Truex boosted his playoff points total to a whopping 34, nearly double that of second-place Jimmie Johnson (18) as his best season shows no signs of tailing off. “I feel like with the way we run, coupled with the bonus points, we should be a lock for (the season ﬁnale at) Homestead,” Truex said. “But at the same time, this is racing and anything can happen.” Busch, who dominated qualifying earlier in the day, was the class of the ﬁeld early and gained a big lead after the green ﬂag dropped and led all 20 laps of the ﬁrst stage. By the eighth time around the 2.45-mile circuit, Busch held a 3.4-second lead over Truex, while Keselowski in sixth was 10 seconds behind. It was Busch’s ninth stage win of the season. Busch, who overcame a pit road penalty early in Saturday’s Xﬁnity race at The Glen and rallied to See TRUEX | 7 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Tuesday, Aug. 8 Boys Golf $<37,6/M� �366/<M� '+>/<09<.M� �/6:</� +>� �+=>/<8M��:L7L 9<>=79?>2M� "9-5� �366� +>� �+663+� �-+./7CM� �:L7L Thursday, Aug. 10 Boys Golf $&�[�239� 7+>-2� +>� �239� %83@/<=3>CM� N ��:L7L �+663+��-+./7C�+>� 9<>=79?>2M��+L7L 938>� 6/+=+8>�+>�#:<381�&+66/C Wednesday, Aug. 9 Boys Golf �+663+��-+./7CM��/31=M�#9?>2��+663+�+>� '+>/<09<.M��N ��+L7L Girls Golf �+663+��-+./7C�+>�'+>/<09<.M��N ��+L7L Friday, Aug. 11 Girls Golf �+663+��-+./7C�+>��91+8M��N ��+L7L �+663+��-+./7CM��/31=�+>�&38>98��9?8>CM� �:L7L An outside view of the Pro Football Hall of Fame facility located in Canton, Ohio. �<C+8�'+6>/<=n�& �#:9<>= Tomlinson steals show at HOF induction CANTON, Ohio (AP) — As he so often did on the ﬁeld, LaDainian Tomlinson stole the show. With a powerful speech calling for “Team America” to be a place for inclusion and opportunity, the great running back of the San Diego Chargers was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday night. The 2017 roster of entrants into the shrine was deeply impressive: fellow running back Terrell Davis ; quarterback Kurt Warner; defensive end Jason Taylor ; safety Kenny Easley ; placekicker Morten Andersen ; and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones . All spoke eloquently, with bursts of humor and heartwarming stories. But Tomlinson’s words resonated so strongly that he drew several standing ovations not only from the crowd of 13,400, but from his now-fellow Gold Jackets. “Football is a microcosm of America,” Tomlinson said. “All races, religions and creeds, living, playing, competing side by side. When you’re part of a team, you understand your teammates — their strengths and weaknesses — and work together toward the same goal, to win a championship. “Let’s not choose to be against one another. Let’s choose to be for one another. … I pray we dedicate ourselves to being the best team we can be, working and living together, representing the highest ideals of mankind. Leading the way for all nations to follow.” Tomlinson and Taylor were elected in their ﬁrst year of eligibility. Taylor’s emotional speech during which he had to pause several times to compose himself was another highlight. A third-round draft pick from Akron — just down the road from the Hall of Fame — Taylor’s 139 1/2 career sacks helped him make the All-Decade Team of the 2000s. He also was the NFL’s Man of the Year in 2007. “I honestly can’t believe I am here,” said Taylor, who kissed the shaved head atop his bust when it was unveiled. “In 1992 I was at the University of Akron, just 20 miles away. It took 20 years to travel 20 miles to put on this jacket. It was worth every step.” The longest wait, 24 years, was by Easley, chosen for enshrinement by the seniors committee. The hard-hitting safety for the Seahawks and a member of the 1980s All-Decade Team played only seven seasons and 89 games. But what an impact he made as an intimidator and ballhawk. The 1981 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, Easley was the league’s top overall defender in 1984 when he had a league-leading 10 interceptions, a career high. “I thank you for wel- coming me into your exclusive club,” he said. Andersen, the league’s career scoring leader, joined Jan Stenerud as the only placekickers in Canton. A native of Denmark who knew nothing of American football when he came to this country as a teenager, Andersen played an incredible 25 pro seasons, a league record. A member of the NFL’s 1980s and ’90s AllDecade Teams, he played 382 total games, scored 2,544 points (565 ﬁeld goals, 849 extra points) and is the all-time scoring leader for both New Orleans and Atlanta. “Good evening, Canton, Ohio,” he began. “Good morning Denmark. “My story isn’t only about my love for my country of Denmark and its people, but also my deep appreciation and respect for what I discovered here in the United States of America.” It took Warner years to get discovered by the NFL. By way of the Arena Football League, NFL Europe — and stocking shelves at a grocery store in between football jobs — Warner stepped in when Trent Green tore up his knee in a 1999 preseason game. He went on to win two NFL MVP awards and one league title, reinvigorating moribund Rams and then Cardinals franchises along the way. “People say Hollywood couldn’t have written it any better,” Warner noted. “After this, they don’t have a chance.” Davis had a similar story. A sixth-round draft pick after a nondescript career at Long Beach State and Georgia, his mercurial NFL stay (seven years, ﬁve of them spectacular) had been something of a hindrance for entry into the hall. But he was the catalyst for the NFL titles Denver won in 1997 and ‘98 with another Hall of Famer, John Elway, at quarterback. The 1996 and ‘98 Offensive Player of the Year, 1997 Super Bowl Most Valuable Player and ‘98 NFL MVP, Davis’ meteoric stint came to an ugly end with a devastating knee injury in 1999. That in great part kept him out of the hall for more than a decade. Now, he is in, having overcome migraines that plagued him since he was a teenager — and overcome the questions over the longevity of his NFL stint. “The overwhelming feeling running through my body is gratitude,” he said. The current Cowboys showed their gratitude to Jones by sticking around the area after winning the Hall of Fame game on Thursday night. They were in the stadium for his induction, which Jones earned not only See HOF | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Firestone From page 6 up there next week, as well.” Matsuyama, who started the ﬁnal round two shots behind Thomas Pieters and Zach Johnson, quickly got into the hunt by chipping in from 60 feet for eagle. He took the lead for the ﬁrst time on No. 6 with a 15-foot birdie, and then he was gone. Woods shot 61 twice at Firestone. Jose Maria Olazabal in 1990 and Sergio Garcia in 2014 were the other players to do it. Matsuyama knew from his experience playing with Woods in 2013 what it would take. And just like everything else on this day, he made it look easy. He spun a wedge back to 4 feet on the par-5 16th for birdie. He holed an 8-foot putt on the 17th hole and then closed with another approach and settled 6 feet away. Matsuyama, who began the ﬁnal round two shots behind Johnson and Thomas Pieters, ﬁnished at 15-under 265. He now has won two World Golf Championships by a combined 12 shots, having captured the HSBC Champions by seven shots in Shanghai last fall. Johnson, winless since his British Open victory two years ago at St. Andrews, pulled within one shot with a long birdie putt at the 11th, but he could do no better than pars the rest of the way and shot 68. Pieters was never in the game after missing 4-foot par putts on successive holes to close out the front nine. He closed with a 71. The only other player with a chance was Charley Hoffman, who also was one shot behind on the back nine. Hoffman was three shots behind on the par-5 16th hole when his caddie suggested laying up because there was no place to get it close by going for the green 282 yards away. “I’m trying to win a tournament,” Hoffman said. “I’m tired of ﬁnishing second.” He ripped a 3-wood onto the green and over the back into light rough, chipped weakly to 15 feet and made par anyway. He wound up with a 66 to ﬁnish third, though it was a big step in trying to make his ﬁrst Presidents Cup team. Matsuyama’s ﬁnal birdie broke by one shot the lowest ﬁnal round by a winner at Firestone. Fulton Allem shot 62 when he won the old World Series of Golf in 1993. McIlroy got within one shot of the lead on the front nine with three birdies in six holes until his momentum stalled with a few missed putts. He stumbled on the back nine and shot 69, leaving him in a tie for ﬁfth with Russell Knox, Paul Casey and Adam Hadwin. Spieth closed with a 68 and tied for 13th in his last tournament before he goes for the career Grand Slam in the PGA Championship. After the Bridgestone Invitational, add one more player — Matsuyama — to the list of major obstacles in his way. “I haven’t won a major yet. I have a lot of work left to do,” Matsuyama said. “But that’s not to say that I don’t have conﬁdence.” Truex Loop while racing for seventh. Keselowski bounced into Busch and both slid off course.

(AP) — Cam Heyward vividly remembers a December road game last season at Cincinnati, where the Pittsburgh Steelers were quickly running out of healthy bodies along the defensive line. Heyward was already sidelined with a torn pectoral muscle for a game the Steelers won by four points. He saw teammates along the line start to fall because of injury. He doesn’t think the Steelers will have that problem this season. Heyward is back and ready to anchor a young unit that gained depth and experience in his absence. “We can go into the game with three nose tackles or six or seven ends because guys can play multiple positions,” Heyward said. “It just gives us depth and if someone gets injured, we don’t feel like we’re cramming around. “I remember the Cincinnati game, I was talking to the outside linebackers like “can y’all play defensive end,” but I don’t think we’ll have to deal with that this year.” Since entering the NFL as the Steelers’ ﬁrst-round draft pick in 2011, Heyward played 85 consecutive regular-season games - third-longest active streak among NFL defensive ends at the time. But that string ended when a hamstring injury forced Heyward to miss two games. His season concluded soon after when Heyward tore a pectoral muscle against Dallas in November. The 28-year-old Heyward, who enters his seventh season, wants to put a forgettable 2016 in the past. “I feel like my season got cut short,” Heyward said. “I don’t really count last season because I was injured too much, so I’m back to my sixth year.” An improved Stephon Tuitt joins Heyward to give the Steelers a formidable tandem along the defensive line. Tuitt, the Steelers’ second-round pick in 2014, stepped up signiﬁcantly to lead the line in Heyward’s absence. Tuitt set the tone the week after Heyward’s season-ending injury when he tied a single-game career high with two sacks and was chosen AFC Defensive Player of the Week. “When Cam Heyward went down, I really grew a lot,” Tuitt said. “You don’t ever want to be in a situation like that, but it helped me grow and I’m going to be a better veteran player because of that, because I have so much conﬁdence this year.” The Steelers intended to give Heyward and Tuitt a much-needed breather along the defensive line when they made Javon Hargrave their third-round draft pick in 2016. The plan worked as Hargrave gained valuable experience as a rookie, playing in 15 games and making 13 starts at defensive tackle. He also played in the Steelers’ three playoff games and got his ﬁrst career postseason sack on Tom Brady in the AFC championship game during a lopsided loss against New England. The Steelers added a veteran presence in March when they gave a two-year contract to Tyson Alualu, a longtime defensive lineman in Jacksonville, and 2010 ﬁrstround draft pick. “He has a great motor,” Heyward said. “You saw that in Jacksonville and he brought it here. He was drafted in the ﬁrst round for a reason and I’m glad he came here.” A pair of sixth-round picks, Daniel McCullers and L.T. Walton, also continue to develop. McCullers, drafted in 2014, and Walton, a 2016 pick, have appeared in 53 games, making a combined ﬁve starts in three seasons.

After two injury-plagued years, he plans on silencing them. The two-time Pro Bowl selection played most of last season with torn left and right groin muscles, but is healthy — and motivated by criticism — as he enters his eighth NFL campaign. “I love the game so much, it’s tough to hear people from the outside looking in, saying, ‘Man, Joe, he’s hurt. He can never stay healthy,’” Haden said Saturday. “I’m not trying to be hurt. I’m not trying to not be out there helping my guys. “Last year was probably the toughest year I’ve had, but it all comes around. God works in mysterious ways.” The low point of Haden’s pro career coincided with the franchise hitting rock bottom. Cleveland lost its ﬁrst 14 games — dropping 17 in a row overall, dating back to 2015 — and ﬁnished with an NFL-worst 1-15 record. Individually, the 5-foot-11, 195-pounder allowed six touchdowns in man-to-man pass coverage and only had one interception in the ﬁnal 14 weeks. The latter span began when he tore both sides of his groin, yet willed himself to keep playing. Daily Sentinel Bowie gets gold, and Jamaica fails to medal LONDON (AP) — The American sprinter took a mighty tumble. Nobody, however, has fallen harder than Jamaica so far at this year’s world championships. The evening after Usain Bolt’s improbable loss to a pair of U.S. runners, the world’s best sprint island watched the red, white and blue paraded around the track once again at its expense. Tori Bowie leaned over the line for her 100-meter victory, then stumbled and crashed down to the track to put the exclamation point on the second straight sprint shock of the meet. Her .01-second victory Sunday over Marie-Josee Ta Lou of the Ivory Coast was a photo-ﬁnish thriller. The fact that the defending Olympic champion and the most dominant female sprinter of 2017, Elaine Thompson of Jamaica, ﬁnished ﬁfth was every bit as stunning. “The past few years, Jamaica has dominated,” Bowie said. “We’ve had no harsh feelings toward them, no negative thoughts. We’ve been extremely focused on ourselves. Just trying to get where they’re at.” In snapping a stretch of four straight Jamaican wins at the Olympics and worlds, Bowie became the ﬁrst U.S. woman to win the world title at 100 meters since Carmelita Jeter in 2011. This marks the ﬁrst U.S. sweep of the 100 at the worlds since 2005. Bowie’s time, 10.85 seconds, was nothing spectacular. Her race, though, was something to behold. She trailed Ta Lou Martin Meissner | AP United States’ Tori Bowie, center, stumbles as she crosses the finish line to win the gold medal in the Women’s 100 meters final at the World Athletics Championships in London Sunday. by two paces as they headed into the last 20 meters but Bowie just kept charging. She caught Ta Lou at the end, and Bowie’s lean at the line was textbook. The photo ﬁnish actually shows Ta Lou’s foot ahead of Bowie’s, but Bowie beats her where it counts — her torso is over the line a fraction of an inch ahead of Ta Lou’s. Dafne Schippers, the 2015 world champion in the 200, took bronze in 10.96. “It’s not like there’s a training session for a lean,” said Bowie’s coach, Lance Brauman. “She did what she had to do to get to the line ﬁrst. She’s scraped up and won and that’s all that really matters.” The lean was so extreme, it sent Bowie off balance and careening into Lane 8, where she landed on her left hip while the runner in that lane, Murielle Ahoure, had to slow down, then jump to avoid landing on her. Bowie stayed down for a few seconds. The “7” sticker on her left hip was torn almost completely off. She gathered herself and walked gingerly around the track for the victory lap. Afterward, she spent about an hour receiving treatment for abrasions on her shoulder, back and hip. The pain will go away. That gold is hers forever. “The plan was to just come out here and execute, leave it all on the track,” Bowie said. “I didn’t want to come back saying, ‘Oh, I should’ve done this. I should’ve done that.’ That for sure wasn’t the case.” Much as Bolt did the night before, Thompson moved awkwardly out of the blocks. Her 0.2 second reaction time was the worst in the ﬁeld, and from there, she was never a factor in the race. Quite a stunner, given the way she’s dominated the sprint game over the past year. Since she beat the previous champion, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica, at the Olympics last year on her way to a 100-200 double, Thompson has been virtually untouchable. She came to London on a 17-race winning streak at 100 meters and her season-best time of 10.71 was the fastest in the world by more than 0.1 second. One thing: She had been dealing with an Achilles’ injury this year and ran — and won — a race last month in training shoes, not spikes. She refused to use injuries as an excuse. “I can’t complain,” she said. “I can’t rerun that race. I have to give those girls a lot of credit. It didn’t go as I planned.” Like Bolt, Thompson won’t be running in the 200, raising the distinct possibility that the Jamaicans could get completely shut out of individual sprint gold at the worlds. But Bowie will be there. The one-time long jumper who took up the sprint game only a few years ago posted a 21.77 at the Prefontaine Classic earlier this year, which is the fastest in the world this season. First, though, some time to heal. “I’m pretty sure I’ll feel much better tomorrow,” Bowie said. Osweiler to start Browns’ exhibition BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Brock Osweiler didn’t appear to be in Cleveland’s plans when he arrived via trade in March. Now he’s starting the Browns’ exhibition opener. Coach Hue Jackson picked Osweiler over Cody Kessler, rookie DeShone Kizer and Kevin Hogan to start Thursday’s preseason home game against the New Orleans Saints. Osweiler, who started 14 games for Houston last season, has not taken snaps with the starting offense during camp, but he’ll be the ﬁrst one on the ﬁeld, with a chance to impress Jackson and potentially win the fulltime starting job. “A lot goes into our evaluation, but it’s always going to be about efﬁciently and effectively running the offense,” Jackson said in a statement. “You want your starter to be able to do that despite any circumstance. Brock hasn’t really gotten any ﬁrstteam reps and this will give him that chance. We look forward to seeing what he can do with this opportunity throughout the week and against the Saints.” Osweiler has impressed the Browns with his attitude and work ethic 820 East Main Street��Pomeroy, Ohio 740-992-3600 www.reedbaur.com 60720833 60730143 after a rough season with the Texans. He went 8-6 during his one season with Houston but didn’t connect with coach Bill O’Brien, and the team shipped him and his $16 million guaranteed contract to the Browns, who also got a 2018 secondround draft pick. Cleveland ﬁgured to deal him, but he’s still around and very much in the mix to be the Browns’ starter when they open the regular season on Sept. 10 against Pittsburgh. Jackson made it clear last week that whomever he picks to start against the Saints won’t necessarily start against the Steelers. Osweiler played the best of Cleveland’s four QBs on Friday night in a scrimmage at FirstEnergy Stadium. He led his team to two ﬁeld goals, but Jackson called the overall play of his quarterbacks “spotty.” Kessler has had a disappointing camp despite showing better arm strength and being in great shape. He went 0-8 as a rookie starter last season when he got pushed into the lineup because of injuries to Robert Grifﬁn III and Josh McCown. Kizer, the secondround pick from Notre Dame, has closed the gap on his competitors lately, but the Browns are inclined not to rush him. Kizer missed a chance to throw the only touchdown in the scrimmage but badly missed wideopen running back Duke Johnson. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
