“The Usual Suspects” isn’t
just a movie.
When it comes to the drug
trade, it’s real life.
Authorities fanned out
across Mahoning and Trumbull counties Tuesday to begin rounding up 37 people
a Mahoning County grand
jury secretly indicted for
their suspected roles in a
Bunch
Rushton
heroin distribution ring.
Among them is Ashanti
Bunch, 39, a one-time member of the Ayers Street Playas
East Side gang. He once told
a judge that he had more
children than times he’d
been shot, although he could
not remember how many
times at that point in 2001.
He had seven children then.
Those indicted face charges of engaging in a pattern of
corrupt activity, as well as
additional counts ranging
from trafficking in heroin to
money laundering and others.
A news release said Terrence Rushton, 32, who has
addresses in Youngstown
and Campbell, was the leader of the ring.
Besides Rushton, 12 others
are described as primary or
midlevel dealers in the ring.
They are Bunch, of Lansd-

After about a 20-minute
explanation from the Mahoning County commissioners, it became clear that the
racino tax increment financing district, or TIF, would not
benefit Austintown schools
directly.
T he tow nsh ip school
board invited all three county commissioners to its work

to discuss the TIF for Hollywood Gaming at Mahoning Valley Race Course. The
presentation ended with the
school board’s asking for

that runs along the school

A letter was sent to the

YOUNGSTOWN
The two people who admitted
destroying a historic mansion in an
arson and also vandalizing Lanterman’s Mill in Mill Creek Park said
at their sentencing they were under
the influence of drugs used to cope
with life’s ups and downs.
Judge Lou A. D’Apolito of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court
said, however, they needed to learn
how to deal with adversity by not
getting high.
He sentenced Alexis Little, 20,
and Brian McKinney, 21, both of
Youngstown, on Tuesday to five
years’ probation, which includes a
year in the county jail, for the fire
that destroyed the
Firestone mansion
in North Lima last
October a nd t he
spray-painting of
the mill just a couple
of days later.
The judge said the
McKinney mix was a volatile
one that led to both
incidents.

they had the weight of the
world on their shoulders,”
Judge D’Apolito said.
The pair pleaded guilty
May 27 to a fourth-degree
felony arson charge and a
cha rge of
vandalism,
a fifth-degree felony.
Lawyers for

responsibility for their actions.
The mansion was a twostory, 2,720-square-foot
house w it h eight bedrooms. It was built at its
original site adjacent to the
Firestone tire-testing facility in 1880 by the Lower
family, relatives of millionaire businessman Harvey
Firestone. The house also
was known as the Lower
Homestead.
Tom and Connie Ellison
bought the home in 2011
and were renovating it to
sell at the time of the Oct.
21 fire.
McKinney apologized
to the Ellisons, saying he
had just learned at the time
that he could not join the
armed services because he
failed a background check
and he was devastated and
turned to drugs.
Judge D’Apolito asked
him why he decided to destroy property. McKinney
said he had no answer.
“I honestly can’t say why
I did, either,” McKinney
said. “I wasn’t in my right
state of mind. We just acted
on a crazy impulse.”
Mahoning County Deputy Sheriff Ed Maloney leads away Brian
McKinney after McKinney was sentenced to a year in the county
jail Tuesday for his role in burning down the Firestone Mansion in
North Lima and vandalizing Lanterman’s Mill at Mill Creek Park.
Little also apologized to
the Ellisons and the park
board, saying she was going through several crises
at the time, including worries about her mother’s
health and a friend who
was injured in a car accident.
When the judge asked
her why they picked the
mansion to set ablaze, she
said she had seen it once
and was told it was vacant.
Connie Ellison told the
judge they were impressed
by the handiwork inside
the home when they first
saw it and had the home
moved about 900 feet.
She said it was impossible
for her and her husband
to own the mansion, but
they wanted to fix it up for
someone else to have.
“The question of why this
crime was committed and
the emotional scars will remain forever,” Ellison said.
Little and McKinney
were spotted on v ideo
getting gasoline near the
mansion, and authorities
found several gas cans.
While they searched the
car, authorities also found
the spray paint used in the
vandalism at the mill.
The two also must pay
about $1,000 restitution to
Mill Creek Park and about
$150,000 restitution to
the Ellisons. They have to
register as arson offenders
with the sheriff’s office for
10 years.

A cow weighing about
1,800 pounds was stolen
from a township property this

According to a police report filed Monday, a fence
on the property of an Omalia Drive residence was cut
where a homeowner believed
someone lured his cow out of
the yard.
The cow was taken sometime between July 11 and
July 12, and the homeowner

Mill Creek MetroParks soon will
fill a few positions within the park
administration that have remained
vacant for some time.
One of those positions – development director – will be in charge
of fundraising efforts for the park.
That position has remained unfilled
for about a year.
The importance of fundraising
was the topic of discussion at a June
30 board meeting at which members
of the park board voted 3-2 to put a
15-year levy renewal with additional
millage on the November ballot.
Board president Lou Schiavoni,
who voted against the levy proposal,
said at the time that the park leadership should come up with alter-
nate f u nd ra isi ng
methods, including
a renewed focus on
development.
“I think we have
to tighten our belts
a little bit” and at the
same time come up
Schiavoni
with ways to bring in
revenue for capital
improvements, Schiavoni said in an
interview.
“There’s a lot of grant opportunities out there, and we need to take
advantage of them,” he said, adding
that contributions from estates and
wealthy donors are other funding
avenues the development director
should pursue.
The responsibilities of the development director position, interviews
for which are set to begin next week,
include administering fundrais-
ing and “strategic
acquisition of additional financial resources.” Mill Creek
MetroParks Executive Director Aaron
Young said he expects that individual
Young to collaborate with
the foundations that
raise money for the park.
The position, for which the park
received about 40 applicants, comes
with an annual salary of between
$52,130 to $78,390, depending on
the candidate’s experience and the
park’s finances.
That salary range also applies to
the human-resources director position, for which the park management is doing interviews. There have
been 151 applicants in this round of
hiring, Young said.
Filling that position, he says,
will allow him to focus more on

The Youngstown Planning Commission postponed a recommendation on licensing downtown public parking lots and garages, such as

City panel puts parking proposal on hold to discuss in detail
By DAVID SKOLNICK
skolnick@vindy.com
YOUNGSTOWN
After hearing complaints
about a proposal to license
downtown public parking
lots and garages, the city’s
planning commission applied the brakes in order to
discuss it further.
The commission had a
Tuesday public hearing on
the plan proposed by Mayor
John A. McNally, who serves
as a member.
At the hearing, three officials with parking decks
and garages wanted more
details on the plan, with two
of them objecting to it.
Based on the recommendation of McNally, the commission decided Tuesday
to wait a month to make a
recommendation to city
council on the parking proposal.
The mayor said before the
next meeting he plans to
talk with downtown parking lots and garages about
possible adjustments to the

“I still want to move on
licensing,” McNally said.
“Parking lots need to be better identified.”
There are about 3,000
public parking spots downtown, said Bill D’Avignon,
director of the Community
Development Agency and
deputy director of the city’s
planning department.
The proposal includes a
charge of $1 per space annually and requires specific
rules for lots and garages to
obtain licenses including
readable signs at entrances
displaying the international parking symbol – a white
letter “P” at least 14 inches
in height on a purple circular background that is at
least 22 inches in diameter
– as well as specific signs
displaying parking rates.
The city would also inspect the lots and garages
annually.
“It sounds like overregulation, and the cost of overregulation has to be passed
along to someone,” said Ray
Jaminet Jr., who co-owns
a lot with about 400 spots
on East Front Street. “Extra
costs and extra regulations
means additional costs to
customers.”
Bob Kranitz of A1 Parking
on West Boardman Street
said at Tuesday’s hearing
that the city’s rules on lots
and garages shouldn’t be
universal as there are different issues for each.

Taft is on the South Side

“There are more than 90

said Mayor John A. McNally,

remove the blight.”
The comma nder a nd

Tuesday to have reservists
do various neighborhood
blight-removal projects in
Youngstown.
“We’d like to be able to
expand the program in the
city,” McNally said. “Certainly the South Side area
has a lot of demolition
needs.”
McNally said he would
next like the reservists to
install stop signs and street
signs, particularly on the
North Side. There are about
600 street signs that need to
be installed, he said.
“These small projects are
important to citizens,” McNally said. “This is a good

KASICH
Continued from A1
He added, “I believe I know
how to work and help restore
this great United States.”
The formal announcement
capped months of speculation, fueled by out-of-state
visits by Kasich to early primary and caucus states. After
Tuesday’s announcement,
Kasich left for New Hampshire, where he’s frequently
campaigned. He also will
make stops in South Carolina, Iowa and Michigan
through Saturday.
Kasich will have to jockey
for position quickly to qualify for the first Republican
presidential debate Aug. 6 in
Cleveland, with the top 10
candidates in national polls
to be picked to participate.
Kasich is currently in 12th
place in polls.
The governor acknowledged that people say, “I
don’t know if he can win,” but
“together we’ll prove them
wrong again.”
Democrats criticized Kasich’s performance in office,
pointing to local government cuts and tax policies
that they said benefit wealthy
residents.
U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of
Howland, D-13th, who backs
Democrat Hillary Rodham
Clinton for president, said:
“After seeing firsthand how
John Kasich has led Ohio
over the last five years, it is
unbelievable that he thinks
he should be president of
the United States. Throughout his career as a member
of Congress, a Wall Street
banker and Ohio’s governor,
John Kasich has proved many
times that he will always put
the desires of the wealthy and
special interests before the
needs of the middle class.”
Dave Johnson, Columbiana
County Republican chairman and a Kasich backer
who attended the event, said
the governor “did a fantastic
job as I expected he would.
John Kasich has a homespun
style of speaking. One of the
themes woven throughout
was people have been betting against him his entire
life and no one thinks he can
win the presidency and he
will. It was a great message. It
was a terrific start.”
Mahoning County Republican Chairman Mark Munroe, who also backs Kasich
and attended the speech,
said, “As I watched the governor, I was struck by how
fortunate the country is to
get the talents of John Kasich in the White House. He’s
strong, tough. He’s a listener.
His message was: Through
hard work, you can change
the world.”
Kasich used the event to
offer his credentials for the
White House and to outline
his priorities if successful in
next year’s Republican primary and general election.
He talked about the importance of “very big ideas,” reciting his past electoral successes at the Ohio Statehouse
and in Congress.
He also referenced policy
decisions by his gubernatorial administration to help
needy residents.
“If you’re drug-addicted,
we’re going to try to rehab
you and get you on your feet,”
he said. “If you’re mentally

a question on any of it ... we
would have set up a meeting
and had you downtown or

us,” said Vincent Colaluca,

Those experiences and

Kasich provided a snapshot of his national priorities, including increased support for the armed forces, the
elimination of burdensome
and unnecessary regulations
and, at the top of the list, a
balanced federal budget.
On nat iona l securit y,
he said, “I’m a person that

we must be strong.”

tame the bureaucracy, we’ll
restore some com mon
sense,” and “get rid of all
those stupid rules.”
On a balanced federal
budget: “I promise you that
my top priority will get this
country on a path to fiscal
independence, strength, and
we will rebuild the economy of this country because
creating jobs is the highest
moral purpose, and we will
move to get that done.”
Kasich also called for more
national unity. He refrained
from criticizing other presidential candidates directly.
“There are some that will
try to divide us – we see it all
the time,” he said. “I don’t pay
attention to that nonsense. At
the end of the day, it’s about
being together because, you
know, it says, ‘We The People.’”

Protesters criticize Kasich over plan
to close local developmental center
By MARC KOVAC
news@vindy.com
MAGENTA
Tarr and Bowers are taking
issue with Kasich’s decision
to veto a closure commission provision added to the
biennial state budget, which
would have required review
of the planned closing of YDC
and a comparable facility in
the Dayton area.
YDC serves residents in
Mahoning, Portage, Stark,
Wayne, Ashland, Columbiana and eight other counties.
About 85 residents with severe and profound disabilities who need extensive daily
support live at YDC. Those
residents will have to seek
other services, potentially at
one of eight remaining staterun facilities – the closest
one is near Cleveland – or in
home or community-based
settings.
Some YDC residents moved
to the center after the closing of the Apple Creek Developmental Center in Wayne
County nearly a decade ago.
State officials cite decline
in the number of people living in state-run centers over
the past eight years among
reasons for the closures.
But family members and
employees at YDC counter
that the state has been pushing residents to find other living options.
“They talk about dwindling numbers, but they ordered the numbers down,”
said Sean Murphy, who has
worked at YDC for 15 years.
“We deal with the profound
and the severely disabled.
These people can’t survive in
the public.”
DeWayne Shealey, another
15-year employee of YDC,
added, “He’s really turning
his back on the really unfortunate individuals that we
take care of every day and ...
chooses to ignore the pleas
of the parents and the family
members.”
Ernie Barkett, a sophomore economic student from
Youngstown State University,
said the closure commission
would give the families of
YDC residents and employees the chance to make a case
for keeping the center open.
“We really believe that the
review is the best way to go,”
he said. “It would ... give these
people a second chance. We
believe the privatization in
those facilities [isn’t] the best
for them. They’re all elderly
[residents]. Moving them this
late in the game when they’ve
been there 15-20 years is a
bad idea.”
Senate Minority Leader
Joe Schiavoni of Boardman,
D-33rd, and other lawmakers are pushing for the Legislature to override Kasich’s
closure commission veto.
On Tuesday, the protesters
held signs and hoped the governor and his administration
would hear their message.
TIF that some of that money
would have come back to the
school district” then.
The TIF is a 50 percent
district, meaning it will take
about $8.7 million over the
first 10 years the racino is
open to be used for infrastructure improvements
in the three TIF corridors.
The other $8.7 million is to
be paid like normal taxes by
Hollywood Gaming. About
$1 million of the TIF funding
was used to build the road
from Silica Road for the racino, so a little less than $7
million is still available, Ditzler explained.
He further said that if the
TIF district had been 100 percent, the local school board
would have needed to agree
to the TIF district. Ditzler, a
former Austintown Township trustee, said township
officials pursued a 50 percent
TIF district to avoid the public perception of a tax break
to the new industry on state
Route 46.
“The racino pays 100 percent of the taxes it would
normally pay. It’s just divvied
up in a different fashion to
be able to improve the infra-
structure,” Ditzler said.
The first time TIF funds can
be touched is 2016, and that
first draw will repay that road
work for the racino. The first
draw for infrastructure work
will be 2017, and at that point,
the TIF board will assess and
prioritize road projects.
County commissioners
pointed out that paying for
road improvements with TIF
funding opens up the budget
of Mahoning County Engineer Patrick T. Ginnetti for
work in other parts of the
county not near the racino,
such as Struthers and Poland.
Colaluca said Monday the
commissioners were invited
to attend as school officials
were looking over the budget
and trying to determine the
financial impact of the racino’s operating in the township.
“We’ve been asking for Raccoon Road to be adjusted and
repainted for eight years now.
All we’re asking for is painting. It’s very unsafe,” Colaluca
said. Ditzler said the Raccoon
project definitely will be
among projects considered
by the TIF district board.

As of Tuesday evening,
seven of the 12 were in

A 76-page, 261-count indictment says members
of the ring engaged in the
selling of heroin and other
drugs from June 29, 2014,
to April 29 of this year.
Cain also was a member
of the Playas with Bunch,
and the two of them were
sentenced to two years in
prison in 2001 for engaging in a pattern of corrupt
activity. Bunch and Rushton a lso have pend i ng
weapons charges in common pleas court.

investigation is a perfect

which is why he has officers assigned to different
task forces.
He also said the passage
last year of the safety tax
for the Mahoning County
Sheriff’s Office was a big
help because it allowed
the jail to stay fully open
so those who are arrested
can be housed there.
Lees, who served in several anti-drug units during his time as a police
officer, said it is not surprising that people such
as Bunch stay in the drug
trade.
“It’s a little frustrating,”
Lees said. “It just serves
to illustrate the point that

The fire marshal determined that American

“We’re definitely going to

The biggest project involved with the racino TIF is
the improvement of Meridian Road from the Trumbull
County line to Cornersburg.
That project’s cost is estimated to be between $12 million
and $15 million and would be
done in three phases. “That’s
in need of improvement badly,” Ditzler said.
The superintendent also
asked for the county’s assistance in explaining to residents that the racino does
not mean a new flow of revenue for the schools. Colaluca
specifically mentioned two
renewal operating levies on
the November ballot before
township residents.
“This is something that
we’re going to need [the community] to support us on,
and these two renewals are
vital. Basically, we would be
thrown into fiscal emergency if those were not to pass,”
Colaluca said.

The Youngstown Plan,
passed by both houses of the
Legislature last month, the
same day it was introduced,
calls for that academic distress commission to be dissolved and a new one appointed in its place.
That commission would
have three members appointed by the state superintendent, one by the mayor
and the fifth, who must be a
district teacher, appointed
by the school board. That
commission would appoint
a state-paid chief executive officer who would have
broad authority to manage

with further cuts on the
way from the most-recent
biennial budget signed by
Republican Gov. John Kasich.
A part of that budget included eliminating taxes
on small businesses. That
means the state budget will
continue the current 75 percent tax cut for businesses
under $250,000 in business
income, and then the taxes
are eliminated in fiscal year
2017, which begins July 1,
2016.
For sma ll businesses
above that income level,
Ohio will establish a new 3
percent tax rate.
“We won’t see the effect of
it until 2016,” Warino said.
“If we have to exempt small
businesses, that will certainly be another cut of the
pie we can’t absorb.”
Warino said there were
“probably well over 100
small businesses in the city”
but only a handful above
that $250,000 threshold.
Those include Giant Eagle,
Star Extruded Shapes Inc.,
Farmers Bank and Fairway
Ford.
This is one of the reasons
city leaders decided against
a 0.375 tax increase. City
leaders, worried about future state cuts back in April,
decided to pursue the halfpercent increase.
Residents, such as Frank
Micchia, have questioned
why the city pursued a special election ballot. Warino
and other city officials have
said they want the half-percent income tax vote to be
by itself on the ballot and
not “muddied” by other ballot issues.
He has not publicly said if
he is against or supportive
of the income-tax increase.
“There’s a reason we
haven’t increased the [income] tax since 1972 and all
A5
the things we’ve had in the
city” have been able to be
maintained with that 1 percent rate, said Don Dragish Jr., president of Canfield
City Council.
He echoed Warino that
Kasich has cut the city’s
budget 17 percent and compared it to homeowners and
their finances. “It would be
hard to maintain the same
amount of living” with 17
percent cuts “and that’s
what we’re trying to say,”
Dragish said.
“If it fails, we will put it
back on in November,”
Dragish said.
The deadline for the November ballot is 4 p.m. Aug.
5, the day after the special
election.
A social media campaign
began July 1 with a Facebook page named Canfield Citizens’ Initiatives,
which has been pumping
out specific revenue figures
explaining why the city is
asking for additional funds.

“Hopefully, we can get as

as we possibly can because
this is an important election,” said Don Dragish Jr.,
council president.
The elections board reduced the city’s voting precincts from 10 to 8 and the
special election will cost
Canfield about $10,000.
That’s because the city is
picking up the cost of running those eight precincts,
while November elections
have the costs split among

Kale-Pesta said cutting

to reduced charges.
Walker, of Baytown, Texas,
was sentenced to 17 years in
prison for involuntary manslaughter, carrying a concealed weapon and improperly handling firearms in a
motor vehicle.
Over the span of nine minutes, the videos show Rollison, 24, of Niles, parking his
sport utility vehicle beside
one of the gas pumps. Robert McKinney was his passenger, according to Chris
Becker, asssistant prosecutor.
First McKinney and then
Rollison walk over to another SUV parked at another
set of pumps to talk to the
driver, Phillip Honzu.
Rollison, who got inside
the front passenger seat of
Honzu’s vehicle, remained
there for about nine minutes,
until a short time after a car
driven by Thomas Walker,
46, father of TaShawn Walker, pulled up to pumps behind Rollison’s and Honzu’s
vehicles.
A little more than a minute before shots were fired,
Thomas Wa lker wa lked
toward the store, while
TaShawn Walker headed
straight for Rollison’s SUV.
Moments later, he was joined
by a second man and then a
third, as they stood near the
passenger front door of Rollison’s SUV.
With McKinney inside the
SUV, one of the three men
tried unsuccessfuly to open
the passenger door.
TaShawn Walker, 27, then
walked toward Honzu’s SUV
and stopped at the driver’s
door next to Honzu. Rollison
got out of Honzu’s SUV and
walked in front of it.
TaShawn Walker, who appeared to be talking to Rollison, moved toward Rollison. They stood facing each
other, slightly circling each
other, until Rollison walked
away from Walker, his back
turned, in the general direction of his own vehicle.
Rol lison turned pa r tway back toward Walker
two times, from 10 feet or
so away, possibly talking to
Walker, until Walker’s arm
rises from his side, and the
gun flashes as he fired three
times.
Rollison then ran toward
the back of his vehicle, where
he fell to the ground and
didn’t get up. He died later at
the hospital.

This screen shot of a video released by the Trumbull County

station on West Market Street in Warren. A shootout occurred Oct.

video. Becker said Rollison
was hit by bullets from at
least two guns, that Rollison
also fired his gun and that
shots were fired from four to
five guns.
After Walker started firing
his gun, his father and the
two other men dove away
from the area. TaShawn
Walker ran quickly to get beside his father’s car because
McKinney was firing at them
from inside Rollison’s SUV.
TaShawn Walker ducked
and continued running past
his father’s car and to the
west along Market Street and
disappeared. His father and
the two other men eventually drove away, after McKinney drove away, leaving
Rollison writhing in pain.
In addition to the Rollison, Walker and Honzu vehicles, two other cars were
near Walker as he fired. One
apparently not connected
to the fight had to wait un-
til Walker stopped firing to
drive away because Walker
was firing just over the hood
of the car.
The 12:54 a.m. shootout
occurred a short time after
TaShawn and Thomas Walker left a tavern in Warren
Township, where they purportedly confronted people
they said were celebrating
the death of TaShawn Walker’s brother, Taemarr Walker,
24, exactly one week earlier.
Rollison had been at the tavern that night, his father has
said.
Taemarr Walker died in a
confrontation with a Warren
police officer. His death and
Rollison’s death touched off
a period of tension in the
city.
Becker said he doesn’t
know the motive in the Rollison killing, partly because
the people who witnessed
the incident refused to cooperate with investigators.

State Rep. Sean O’Brien
will run next year in the
open race for the Ohio
Senate rather than seek
a fourth term in the state
House.
“I’ve had the opportunity
to represent the 63rd House
District and I look forward
to expanding that work into
the 32nd” Senate District,
said O’Brien, a Democrat
from Bazetta.
Former state Rep. Tom
Letson of Warren, who represented the 64th House
District for eight years, announced last month that he
would run next year in the
Democratic primary for the
32nd, which includes all of
Trumbull and Ashtabula
counties and a portion of
Geauga County.
This will set up a Democratic primary between the
two next year.
Letson unsuccessfully
ran last year for an Ohio
Supreme Court seat, getting 27.4 percent of the vote
against incumbent Justice
Sharon Kennedy.
It was an unsuccessful
year for Ohio Democrats,
with Letson receiving the
lowest percentage of any
of the party’s candidates
who ran statewide. He even
lost in his home county of
Trumbull, receiving 45.8
percent of the vote.
The 32nd Senate District
is strongly Democratic with
Trumbull as its most-populous county.
Republicans control the
state Senate 23-10.
Capri Cafaro, a Democrat from Liberty, was appointed in 2007 to the state
Senate seat to replace Marc
Letson
O’Brien
Dann, who resigned after
being elected attorney general. Cafaro was elected
in 2008 and re-elected in
2012.
The state’s term-limits
law prohibits Cafaro from
seeking re-election next
year. She has said she
doesn’t plan to run for a political office next year.
“Those are big shoes to
fill, as she’s done a great
job,” O’Brien said of Cafaro.
O’Brien, a former Trumbull County assistant prosecutor, was first elected in
2010 in the 63rd District,
which takes in about half
of Trumbull. If O’Brien had
opted to seek re-election to
his House seat and won, he
wouldn’t be able to run for
it in 2018.
House seats are for two
years while Senate positions are for four years.
The 64th District, which
Letson, an attorney, represented for eight years ending Dec. 31, 2014, includes
the rest of Trumbull County and a southern portion
of Ashtabula County.
Dec. 16 is the filing deadline for the March 15 primary. Neither O’Brien nor
Letson have filed nominating petitions to run.
Hubbard Councilman
Ben Kyle, D-1st, announced
last month that he would
run in the 63rd House race
next year.

The school district will
begin drug testing fall athletes today.
This round of testing
begins the second year of
mandatory drug testing for
student athletes and drivers.
Superintendent Frank
Lazzeri characterizes last
year’s implementation of
mandatory testing as “outstanding,” say ing only
three out of approximately
750 students – about half
of Boardman’s high-school
population – tested positive.
“Just the opportunity the
kids are given to say no to
drugs helps them avoid
the peer pressure,” Lazzeri
said. “It gives them an excuse to make a good choice
in their life.”
The policy, which at
first was voluntary for that
group of students, will expand this year to become
voluntary for extracurricular groups such as student
council.
Eventually it will become
mandatory for that student
population as well, Lazzeri
said.
He also expects to expand the program to the
middle schools two years
from now, a step he plans to
recommend to the board of
education.
Tests, which can detect
drug use within a period
of about 90 days, are taken
from hair samples.
Student drivers and athletes must be tested before
they are permitted to drive
to school or begin their
sports season.
They also are entered
into a pool for random drug
testing throughout the
year. About 100 students
were drawn from that pool
last year.
D r u g
testing cost
the district
roughly
$38,000 last
school year.
Lazzeri said
he expects
Lazzeri
to lower that
cost this
year because he found a
cheaper option, but thinks
the cost is worth what the
community gets out of the
policy.
“I think taxpayers realize even though it’s an additional cost to them, it’s
a good program in that” it
might steer a child away
from a life of drug addiction, he said, noting that
addiction-related crimes
end up costing taxpayers
money because of the resources law enforcement
officials must devote.
“If it saves one life, if it
prevents kids from making
bad choices ... it’s worth it,”
he said.
Lazzeri says drug testing
is not meant to be punitive;
if a student does test positive, the student would be
offered help and would not
be excluded from participating in the chosen sport
or club.
It’s one of several methods by which the school
district is trying to combat
drug use among students.
Another anti-drug measure is YesFest, an annual
event that connects students with community
outreach opportunities and
encourages them to make
good choices.
The school district’s focus on preventing drug use
sharpened after several
Boardman graduates died
of drug overdoses in recent
years.
“It’s not easy. You can’t
reach every child. But we
will not give up on any
child,” Lazzeri said of the
district’s efforts.

Tennessee shooting spree
calls for vigilance, patience
A
DER A NGED GUNM A N’S
deadly attack on two U.S. military
facilities in Chattanooga, Tenn.,
last week underscores the validity of the
heightened terrorism consciousness in
this country.
As such, it also underscores the necessity for a thorough investigation into this
particularly brazen rampage and a comprehensive review of intelligence procedures designed to lessen the threat of
such seeming “lone-wolf” attacks on our
homeland.
On Thursday, 24-year-old Muhammad
Youssef Abdulazeez sprayed dozens of
bullets at a military recruiting center at
a strip mall in Chattanooga, then drove
to a Navy-Marine training center a few
miles away and shot up the installation,
killing four Marines and one Navy sailor.
The bullets smashed through windows
and sent service members scrambling for
cover. The triggerman himself was shot
and killed.
According to U.S. Attorney Bill Killian, federal officials are investigating
the shooting spree as an “act of domestic terrorism.” Indeed the horrific attack conjures up images of the April 2014
shootings at the Fort Hood Army post in
Texas that left three people dead and
more than a dozen wounded and the
2009 attack there that killed 13 people
and wounded more than 30.
It is but the latest in a series of similar
troubling incidents.
Federal authorities have charged 62
people with planning attacks on the
homeland on behalf of the Islamic State
or trying to provide material support to
the terror group over the past two years.
An internal congressional document
shows that federal authorities have uncovered more U.S.-based terror plots or
attacks in the first half of 2015 than in any
year since terrorists crashed planes into
the New York City World Trade Center
towers and the Pentagon in Washington,
killing 3,000.
Such data clearly illustrate the need for
vigilance on the part of U.S. authorities
and all Americans to work assiduously
to lessen the threats against our courageous military personnel and against all
Americans. It also, however, underscores
the necessity for patience and avoiding
rash, shortsighted policies.
After all, the motives behind Abdulazeez’s attack remain cloudy. Yes, he was
a convert to Islamic ideology. But authorities have not yet discovered any documented evidence of the man from a
dysfunctional family showing any signs
of strong allegiance to the Islamic State,
al-Qaida or other affiliates in the world’s
growing global terror network.
DON’T ARM RECRUITING STATIONS
As such, proposals that call for arming
all military personnel at recruiting stations and other soft targets are unwarranted. Stricter security of such agencies,
including patrols by local and state lawenforcement officers, may be warranted.
Arming military personnel inside them
is not prudent, at least not yet. Military
recruiting and reserve stations are designed to be open and welcoming to the
public, not off-putting and fearful symbols of a military state.
“I think we have to be careful about
over-arming ourselves, and I’m not talking about where you end up attacking
each other,” Gen. Ray Odierno, chief of
staff of the Army, said recently. Instead,
he said, it’s more about “accidental discharges and everything else that goes
along with having weapons that are loaded that causes injuries.”
Before implementing any structural
changes to current operating procedures
that Americans may later regret, we encourage a strict and comprehensive investigation to play out.
Right now, there are far more questions
than answers swirling around the Chattanooga massacre: How did Abdulazeez
obtain his firearms? What motivated
him to carry out the deadly rampage?
Did he act alone or in alliance with ISIS or
another terrorist group?
Until they are fully answered, America
should not act by the seat of its pants with
premature strategies that could very well
undermine the very freedoms our military works so valiantly to protect.

of approximately 30 million
Americans from 13 states,

ballot box.
Many now fear, confirmed
by the solicitor general, that it is
possible, if not likely, that ministers will face lawsuits or government investigations if they
don’t agree to abandon their
deeply held religious beliefs
and officiate at gay weddings.
Using this new Supreme Court
decision, government agents
and lawyers are more likely
than ever before to target
Americans who still – in the
words of President Obama –
dare to “cling to their faith.”

the term “marriage” – the
building block of our society – can, with the stroke of
a pen, be cha nged. Even
some liberal scholars have
acknowledged that the court
overstepped its constitutional
authority by circumventing
the people’s role in our democratic process or using reasoning without constitutional
roots. This type of abuse of
power is creating a widening fracture in our society.
We must ask ourselves: If the
courts can dictate this, then
what will they dictate next?
EXECUTIVE BRANCH OVERREACH
The Supreme Court isn’t
alone in being a branch of the
federal government making
sweeping policy changes that
it shouldn’t be. The executive

branch, through regulation, is
enacting thousands of policies that directly and indirectly impact almost every
aspect of our lives. These
u n e l e c t e d Wa s h i n g t o n
bureaucrats a re not
accountable to the American
people, despite their legislating via regulation.
Today, regulators, at the
president’s direction, are
actively tr ying to put the
coal industry out of business and raise our electricity
costs through regulations issued by the EPA and the Office of Surface Mining. The
unelected commissioners at
the Federal Communications
Commission recently voted to
begin regulating the Internet
– the effects of which we’ll feel
after the lawsuits have been
settled. Bureaucrats at the Department of Health and Human Services are determining
what can – and cannot – be
included in Americans’ health
insurance policies. The Food
and Drug Administration issues diet dictates and calorie
counts on America’s food producers, and, today, most aspects of financing a home are
governed by Washington; not
coincidentally, fewer families
are receiving mortgages to
buy homes.
Unelected citizens – be they
judges or bureaucrats – imposing their will on their fellow citizens is not healthy for
our democratic republic.
Chief Justice John Roberts was correct in his dissent of the Supreme Court’s
recent ruling when he said
that only through our democratic process are both sides
able to claim ownership in
the final outcome of important policy decisions like this.

Zechariah 12:10 NKJV
For most of a generation,
Democrats have divided into
two broad camps on economic policy. There are “growth
Democrats,” who argue that
a rising tide will lift all boats;
that was the reigning view
during the Bill Clinton administration under Treasury
Secretaries Robert Rubin and
Lawrence H. Summers. And
there are “fairness Democrats,” who argue that the
central problem is inequality.
That’s the view of the party’s
progressive wing, led today by
Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Sen. Bernie
Sanders of Vermont.
As she began spelling out her
views for the 2016 presidential
campaign, Hillary Rodham
Clinton faced a choice: Which
Democrat was she going to be?
Her answer: She wants to
be both. “I believe we have to
build a growth and fairness
economy,” she said last week.
“You can’t have one without
the other.”
Politically, that put Clinton
exactly where she wants to
be: to the left of her husband’s
long-ago administration, which
progressives think was too solicitous toward Wall Street, but
to the right of Sanders, who’s
running as the scourge of the
billionaire class.
So her economic policy
speech included a dose of the
pro-worker Hillary, calling
for stronger union bargaining power and demanding
equal pay for equal work, but
also the pro-business Hillary,
extolling entrepreneurs and
promising to be “the smallbusiness president.”
RECYCLED OBAMA
There was recycled Obama
administration policy too: a
higher minimum wage, an infrastructure bank, investment
in education and renewable
energy. In economic policy
a Hillary Clinton presidency
would look more like a third
Obama term than a third Bill
Clinton term.
But she offered some intriguing new elements as well
– policies that could not only
help her bridge the gaps between her party’s wings but
also make her pitch more than
just a warmed-over version of
the last eight years.
She promised proposals to
promote long-term investment by businesses instead
of a chase for quarterly results
- a problem she called “shorttermism.” (It may be the first
time any presidential candidate has ever said that.)
“Too many pressures in
our economy push us toward
short-termism,” Clinton said.
“Everything is focused on the
next earnings report or the
short-term share price, and the
result is too little attention to the
sources of long-term growth: research and development, physical capital and talent.”
She promised proposals for
“making sure stock buybacks
aren’t used only for an immediate boost in share prices,” a practice economists fear is soaking
up funds that might go to more
productive investments. And
she said she wants to make sure
stock markets “work for everyday investors, not just high-frequency traders.”
Clinton hasn’t spelled out
any details yet. But it sounded
as though she may propose
changing Securities and Exchange Commission rules to
make it harder for companies
to buy back their own stock,
an idea Warren and other progressives have championed.
Aides said Clinton also plans
to propose changes in the tax
treatment of capital gains – income from investments – to
reward long-term investors.
Laurence Fink, chairman of
the investment firm BlackRock, has proposed lengthening the holding period for
long-term capital gains) from
one year to three years, and
perhaps making all gains taxfree after 10 years.
Clinton has managed not
only to find a sensible starting point in the middle of the
Democratic Party; she’s introduced some useful new ideas
to the campaign and launched
a debate that will force rivals
in both parties to respond.

Gun-firing drone
sparks probe
CLINTON, CONN.
An 18-year-old Connecticut man may be in trouble
with federal aviation officials
after posting a video online
that shows shots being fired
from a drone that had been
jury-rigged with a handgun.
The Federal Aviation Administration said Tuesday
it is investigating whether
Austin Haughwout of Clinton violated its regulations,
which prohibit the careless
or reckless operation of a
model aircraft.
Haughwout’s father told
WFSB-TV last week that his
son created the drone with
the help of a Central Connecticut State University
professor. The 14-second
video shows a four-propeller
drone with a semiautomatic
handgun strapped on top
hovering as it fires four
shots in a wooded area.

An Iraqi police official in
Baghdad says a car bomb
detonated in front of a busy

The explosion happened
in the predominantly Shiite
district of New Baghdad late
Tuesday. A hospital official
corroborated the casualties.
Both spoke on the condition
of anonymity because they
are not authorized to brief

No one has claimed responsibility for the attack,
however, the Islamic State
group has been targeting
Shiites across the country
as it seeks to destabilize the

Walker OKs guns
for Wisconsin guard
Associated Press
ities say the shooter was 24-year-old
MADISON, WIS. Muhammed Youssef Abdulazeez, a
Republican Gov. Scott Walker issued an executive order Tuesday authorizing Wisconsin National Guard
personnel to carry firearms while
on duty in the wake of an attack on
a pair of military facilities in Chattanooga, Tenn.
The governor’s order directed Maj.
Gen. Don Dunbar, who oversees the
Wisconsin National Guard, to arm
guard personnel “as reasonably necessary.” Walker also said in a news
release that he ordered Dunbar to
review the long-term security plans
for all of the guard’s facilities.
“Safety must be our top priority,
especially in light of the horrific attack in Chattanooga,” Walker said
in the release.
Dunbar immediately ordered
the posting of armed guardsmen
at the guard’s four storefront recruiting stations in Eau Claire, La
Crosse, Madison and Milwaukee,
said Maj. Paul Rickert, the guard’s
spokesman. Visitors to those locations should be prepared to have
their bags searched, Rickert said.
The guard began a security review
Monday evening after learning the
order was about to come down, he
added.
Walker’s order comes after a gunman killed four U.S. Marines and
a Navy sailor at two Chattanooga
military facilities Thursday. Author-
naturalized U.S. citizen originally
from Kuwait. Police killed him.
Abdulazeez’s motives remain
unclear, although authorities are
treating it as a domestic terrorism
investigation.
Walker’s order would not affect
non-Wisconsin National Guard military offices in the state, which are
federally run.
Walker, who is seeking the 2016
presidential nomination, called Friday for an end to a ban on service
members’ carrying guns in federally operated military recruiting offices. Jeb Bush and Donald Trump,
two other Republicans seeking the
presidential nomination, called for
an end to the ban on the same day
as Walker.
Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, yet
another GOP presidential hopeful,
issued an executive order Friday authorizing his state’s National Guard
leader to arm personnel. A number
of other governors have issued similar orders as well.

Netanyahu faces
criminal probe
JERUSALEM
Israel’s prime minister faced a new scandal
Tuesday after the attorney
general ordered a criminal
investigation into excessive
spending at his residences.
Though the investigation
shows no sign of threatening Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu’s hold on power, it
nonetheless gave him a new
headache at a time of growing international isolation and
domestic turmoil with a narrow and fractured coalition.
Netanyahu and his wife,
Sara, have for years faced
scrutiny over their spending
and have fended off accusations that their lifestyles are
out of touch with regular
Israelis. The prime minister
long has been saddled with
an image as a cigar-smoking,
cognac-swilling socialite,
while his wife has come under
fire for her own expensive
tastes and purported abusive
behavior toward staff.
Action delayed on
transportation bill
In a speech to hundreds of supporters in Bluffton, S.C., on Tuesday,
Trump kept on McCain, accusing
him of being soft on illegal immigration.
“He’s totally about open borders
and all this stuff,” Trump said.
Elsewhere in South Carolina on
Tuesday, one of his rivals, former
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, walked a fine
line on Trump, criticizing his fellow
candidate’s rhetoric on immigration and McCain but saying Trump’s
supporters are “good people” with
“legitimate concerns.”
An editorial in The Des Moines
Register, in early-voting Iowa, urged
him to “pull the plug on his bloviating side show” and quit the race.

Study: Dads gain
3 to 5 pounds
Many men gain a new
sense of responsibility and
purpose when they become
fathers. A new study suggests they also gain 3 to 5
pounds.
The research wasn’t designed to prove fatherhood
causes weight gain and
raises more questions than
it answers. But one outside
expert, while noting its limitations, said the research
is provocative and should
spark further study.
Doctors pay attention
to the weight gain of mothers — both before and after
pregnancy. But the waistline
of dads? That’s not on most
doctors’ radar, said Tom
Wadden, director of the
University of Pennsylvania’s
Center for Weight and Eating Disorders.

as they sit in front of the Waller County Sheriff’s Office and county jail Monday in Hempstead, Texas.
Authorities said Bland hanged herself in the jail three days after being pulled over by police on a traffic

HEMPSTEAD, TEXAS v e r s a t i o n
A police dashboard video
released Tuesday shows that
a Texas state trooper drew a
stun gun on a black motorist
and said, “I will light you up”
when the woman refused to
get out of her car during a
routine traffic stop.
The roadside encounter
between the trooper and the
driver swiftly escalated into
a shouting confrontation
as the officer tried to pull
28-year-old Sandra Bland
from her vehicle. Days later,
she was found dead in jail
in a case that has caused her
family and supporters to
dispute whether she hanged
herself with a plastic garbage
bag in her cell, as authorities
have said.
The video posted by the
Texas Department of Public Safety shows the trooper
stopping Bland for failure to
signal a lane change. After
he hands her a written warning, the trooper remarks that
Bland seemed irritated. The
Illinois woman replies that
she is irritated because she
had changed lanes to make
way for the trooper’s car.

and she asks
why she can’t
smoke in her own car. The
trooper then orders Bland
to get out of the vehicle. She
refuses, and he tells her she
is under arrest.
Further refusals to get
out bring a threat from the
trooper to drag her out. He
then pulls out a stun gun
and makes the threat about
lighting Bland up.
When she finally steps out
of the vehicle, the trooper
orders her to the side of the
road. There, the confrontation continues off-camera
but is still audible. The two
keep yelling at each other as
the officer tries to put Bland
in handcuffs and waits for
other troopers to arrive.
Out of the camera’s view,
Bland goes on protesting
her arrest, repeatedly using
expletives. At one point, she
screams that he’s about to
break her wrists and complains that he knocked her
head into the ground.
The trooper said in an affidavit that after handcuffing
her for becoming combative,
she swung her elbows at him
and kicked him in his shin.
In the affidavit released
Tuesday, trooper Brian Encinia said he then used force “to
subdue Bland to the ground,”
and she continued to fight
back. He arrested her for assault on a public servant.
The trooper has been
placed on administrative
leave for violating unspecified police procedures and
the Department of Public
Safety’s courtesy policy.”

His son, Richard Doctorow, confirmed he died
Tuesday at a New York hospital from complications
of lung cancer. He lived in
New York and Sag Harbor.
Considered one of the
major authors of the 20th
century, Doctorow enjoyed
critical and popular success over his 50-year career.
He won the National Book
Award for fiction in 1986
for “World’s Fair” and the
National Book Critics Cir-
cle award in 1989 for “Billy
Bathgate” and in 2005 for
“The March.”
Besides his 10 novels, he
published two books of
short stories, a play called
“Drinks Before Dinner”
and numerous essays and
articles.
Edgar Lawrence Doctorow was born Jan. 6,
1931, in New York. He was
named after Edgar Allan
Poe, whom he often disparaged as America’s “greatest
bad writer.” His father, David Doctorow, ran a music
store, and his mother, Rose
Doctorow, was a pianist.
Doctorow graduated from
the Bronx High School of
Science and from Kenyon
College in Gambier, Ohio.
He attended graduate school
in at Columbia University
but left without completing
a doctorate. He also served
in the U.S. Army, stationed
in Germany.

Phantoms’ new coach brings experience

YOUNGSTOWN
Two months before your

Stressful recipe for most,
right?
But John Wroblewsk i,
the new head coach of the
Youngstown Phantoms, says
his life has remained steady
despite the uncertaint y
since the American Hockey
League’s Rochester Americans replaced its coaching
staff in May.
“You’d think it’s been a
tumultuous summer, but
internally we’ve been calm,
believing the right thing
would come along,” Wroblewski said Tuesday after being announced as the Phantoms’ fourth head coach in
their seven USHL seasons.
The announcement came
three days before his wed-

su me t ha n
Wroblewski, 34. The previous two seasons, he was an
assistant with the Americans, the top farm club of the
National Hockey League’s
Buffalo Sabres.
Before that, he spent two
seasons (2011-13) as head
coach of the ECHL’s Gwinnett Gladiators after being
an assistant for a year with
the Wheeling Nailers, the
Pittsburgh Penguins’ ECHL
team.
His junior hockey experience includes working with
the U.S. National Under-18
from 2009-10, the Phantoms’
first season in the USHL.
One of his players was
Brandon Saad, who a season
before had been one of the
Mahoning Valley Phantoms’
top scorers in their final season in the North American
Hockey League. After winning two Stanley Cups with
the Chicago Blackhawks,
Saad was traded last month
to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
“I also was on the National Team’s staff from 2007-

This year’s state tournament format is double-elimination. Teams

Little League’s maximum is
85 pitches in a game. If a player
throws 20 or fewer, he can pitch
the next day. If it’s between 21-35,
one day of rest is required. If the
total is between 36-50, two days of
rest follows. If it’s between 51-65,
three days of rest is needed. More
than 65 triggers a four-day break.
“One of the biggest challenges
of the tournament is matching

think it helps them a little
bit.”
The franchise has been
on the market since June
3, when it retained Morgan
Stanley to explore the possibility of a sale. It was most
recently valued by Forbes
at $565 million and ranked
the 10th most valuable NHL
team largely because of its
long-term lease at Consol
Energy Center, a lengthy
string of sellouts, development rights where the Civic
Arena stood, a strong television rights package and
healthy merchandise sales.
“In my personal opinion
in the case of the Penguins,
I would not be surprised if
they saw a premium price
for the franchise,” said Larry Grimes, president of the
Maryland-based Sports Advisory Group, which advises
investors on purchasing professional teams.
“It’s one of the most wellestablished franchises in the
league with a rabid fan base,
stars locked up, Stanley Cups
under their belt. It’s a strong
franchise in what appears
to be a strong market. I had
seen articles last week that
indicated the price could
be as high as $850 million. I
would not doubt that.”
NHL commissioner Gary
Bettman said in June that
expansion fees will be at
least as high as $500 million,
maybe more. Juxtaposed
with the Penguins position,
that has led experts to believe the club’s value could
swell to $850 million or
more.
“I think it’s certainly going to help drive the price
for the Penguins above $500
million, absolutely,” said
Grimes, who has no personal
involvement in the process.
“When you look at the Penguins franchise versus some
of the other franchises that
have changed hands over the
past few years, Pittsburgh is
an infinitely stronger position.”
Experts point out that investors with the financial
means to buy a major league
team often allow personal
hubris to play a part. And ultimately, it only takes one
buyer to pay that much.
“You get some of these
multibillionaries, and now
you’re a rich guy with a microphone in your mouth,”
said Ron Dick, an associate
professor of sports marketing at Duquesne.
“It really plays into a person’s ego to be the owner of
a team.”
An $850 million price tag
might seem a tad high, Dick
said, but he understands it
doesn’t really matter what
he thinks.
“It all depends on how
much somebody will pay.
These people have made so
much money in other businesses. How bad do they really want it?” he said. “Even
if it loses money, how important is it to be the owner
of (Sidney) Crosby, (Evgeni)
Malkin? I think there’s someone out there that would pay
it. It doesn’t matter what we
think it’s worth. It’s like selling a house. It’s not an index.
If one person says ’I’ll pay it!’
that’s all we need. One. And
if they start bidding against
each other you could be at
$850 million, definitely.”
One expert, Mike Ozanian, a writer and analyst at
Forbes, stuck by the original
valuation of $565 million in
a piece published Sunday,
citing the land rights as the
only factor that could see
that number skyrocket to
$850 million.
“I still say the team and
their lease at Consol Energy
Center is worth about $565
million,” Ozanian wrote.
“The only way you get to
$850 million (is) by adding
in the Civic Arena development.”

Mariners 11, Tigers 9
DETROIT
Franklin Gutierrez’s pinch-hit
grand slam in the eighth inning
lifted the Mariners to a wild
victory over the Tigers, pushing
Detroit one loss closer to a trade
deadline that could have drastic
consequences in Motown. The
Tigers had come back from a 5-1
deficit and led 8-6 when Neftali
Feliz (1-3) allowed five runs in the
eighth. Feliz, who was picked up
by Detroit on July 11 after refusing a minor league assignment
from Texas, allowed a run on a
wild pitch before giving up Gutierrez’s opposite-field drive.
Astros 8, Red Sox 3
HOUSTON
Chris Carter hit a two-run homer
and rookie Carlos Correa drove
in two runs as the Houston Astros used a big fifth inning to roll
to a victory over Boston, extending the Red Sox’s losing streak
to six games. Rookie Vince Velasquez (1-1) allowed seven hits
and three runs for his first career
win in his seventh major league
start. The Astros trailed by two
before a four-run fifth where
they scored two runs on an error
before Correa’s ground-rule RBI
double made it 4-3.
Yankees 3, Orioles 2
NEW YORK
Little-used Brendan Ryan hit a
tiebreaking RBI double in the
sixth inning, helping New York
beat Baltimore in the opener of
a series between AL East rivals.
Alex Rodriguez had a sacrifice
fly and Chase Headley an RBI
double off Wei-Yin Chen (4-6) on

NATIONAL LEAGUE
Braves 4, Dodgers 3
ATLANTA
Chris Johnson drove in two
runs while Alex Wood overcame
control problems on a hot night
for Atlanta. The Braves, who had
lost seven of nine overall, improved to 18-6 at home in games
decided by two runs or fewer. It
was a tough evening for the NL
West-leading Dodgers, who have
lost consecutive games for the
first time since June 22-23 at
the Chicago Cubs. Los Angeles
starter Brett Anderson left the
game in the third after irritating
his left Achilles tendon.
Mets 7, Nationals 2
WASHINGTON
Pinch-hitter Eric Campbell put
New York ahead with his two-run
single in the seventh inning, and a
stagnant Mets lineup finally came
through with several clutch hits
to back Jacob deGrom. Fresh off
his dominant display in the AllStar Game a week ago, deGrom
(10-6) allowed two runs and three
hits over six innings in surpassing
his win total from last season. He
struck out eight without a walk to
beat the division-rival Nationals
for the first time in four tries.
INTERLEAGUE
Rays 1, Phillies 0
PHILADELPHIA
Nathan Karns homered and
pitched five innings, ruining the
major league debut of Philadelphia’s Aaron Nola. Karns (5-5)
allowed three hits, struck out
four and walked two, marking
the 14th game where the righthander has allowed two earned
runs or less.
Cardinals 8, White Sox 5
CHICAGO
Matt Holliday hit his sixth career grand slam, powering Michael Wacha and the Cardinals
past the White Sox. Holliday
homered for the first time since
May 12. He returned last Friday
after missing 31 games because
of a strained right quadriceps.
Holliday connected in the fourth
inning for his fourth homer.
Mark Reynolds added a solo
shot in the fifth. Wacha (11-3)
gave up five runs in five innings.
Trevor Rosenthal pitched the
ninth for his 28th save in 30
chances.
Rangers 9, Rockies 0
DENVER
Shin-Soo Choo hit for the cycle
and Matt Harrison earned his
first win in 14 months as the Texas Rangers routed the Colorado
Rockies. Delino DeShields had a
career-high four hits and Prince
Fielder homered for the Rangers,
who won for only the third time in
13 games. Choo, who had three
RBIs, doubled in the second inning, homered in the fourth and
singled in the fifth. He completed
the cycle with a triple to center
leading off the ninth.

In other Titans news, Tennessee
wide receiver Justin Hunter has
been granted bond by a Virginia
judge after being charged with
malicious wounding.
The charge stems from a bar fight
in Hunter’s hometown of Virginia
Beach during the Fourth of July
weekend.
General District Judge Daniel
Lahne said Tuesday that Hunter
could be released on a $25,000
bond as long as he remains on
good behavior. Hunter was also
placed under a curfew.
Prosecutors said during Hunter’s
arraignment that he started a
fight on July 3 by punching a man
in the face twice. After the bar
was cleared, prosecutors said
Hunter punched the man again

Minnesota Vikings: Adrian
Peterson and the Vikings have
agreed to restructure the final
three years of the running back’s
contract.
The Vikings made the announced
Tuesday, four days before players
will report to training camp.
Terms of the revamped deal
weren’t disclosed. In a statement
distributed by the Vikings, Peterson said he appreciates their willingness to address his contract to
provide him “additional security.”
Peterson’s existing deal called for
a $12.75 million salary this season, but neither of the two years
beyond that was guaranteed.
Buffalo Bills: Offensive tackle
Wayne Hunter’s chance to revive
his career with the Bills didn’t last
long.
The Bills announced they
released Hunter on Tuesday,
three weeks after signing him.
The move came a little over a
week before Buffalo players begin
reporting to training camp in
suburban Rochester.
The 6-foot-5, 318-pound player
had been out of football since being released by the St. Louis Rams
following the 2012 season. Hunter
was selected in the third round
of the 2003 draft by Seattle, and
also spent four seasons with the
Jets in a stint that overlapped
new Bills coach Rex Ryan’s tenure
in New York.

Jefferson
agrees
to 1-year
deal with
Cavaliers
Associated Press
CLEVELAND
Richard Jefferson has
experience, deep knowledge of the NBA and a deft
shooting touch.
The Cavaliers plan to
lean on all those attributes.
The free agent forward
has agreed to terms on
a one-year deal for next
season with Cleveland, a
person familiar with the
negotiations told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because Jefferson has not yet
signed his contract.

Carlisle

Jefferson
$1.5 m i llion. The 35-year-old averaged 5.8 points and 2.5
rebounds in 17 minutes
per game in his one season with Dallas and shot
a team-leading 43 percent from 3-point range.
He had been expected to
return to the Mavericks,
but he may have become
expendable when the club
signed shooting guard
Wesley Matthews.
Jefferson fills the roster
spot created by the retirement of Shawn Marion.
While Marion wasn’t a
major contributor on the
floor, he helped mentor
Cleveland’s younger players and Jefferson could
have a similar impact.
Li ke Ma r ion, Jef ferson is no stranger to the
playoffs, appearing in 105
postseason games. He has
also played for New Jersey,
Milwaukee, San Antonio,
Golden State and Utah.
ESPN f irst repor ted
Jefferson’s deal with the
Cavs.
Cleveland has been in
the market for wing players like Jefferson, the No.
13 overall pick in the 2001
draft, this summer. The
Cavs remain interested in
re-signing free agent J.R.
Smith, who declined his
$6.4 player’s option when
free agency opened. Smith
is expected to meet with
the team later this week.
The streaky shooter,
who came to Cleveland in
a midseason trade from
the New York Knicks, had
a disappointing NBA Finals. The Cavs were without All-Star guard Kyrie
Irving and forward Kevin
Love against Golden State
and needed someone to
pick up the scoring slack
and help LeBron James.
But Smith didn’t deliver,
and his sha k y performance — he shot 31 percent from the f loor —
raised speculation about
whether he would be back
for a second season with
the Cavaliers.
The team, though, remains interested in Smith
and vice versa.

Tennessee Titans: Heisman
Trophy winner Marcus Mariota
has agreed to a contract.
The Titans finalized the deal with

Mariota, the No. 2 overall pick in

Mariota says, “I am very grateful

Dame], then had pro experience.”
After four seasons with the
Fighting Irish, Wroblewski
played four seasons with the
ECHL’s Fresno Falcons.
“His experience is unique,”
Loney said.
Wroblewski replaces Anthony Noreen, who guided
the Phantoms to three playoff berths in his four seasons
as head coach. Last month,
Noreen left the Phantoms
to become the head coach
of the ECHL’s Orlando Solar
Bears.
Wroblewski is the first
Phantoms head coach to
come f rom outside t he
team.
“We had a number of
quality candidates for this
position, but John proved
to us through the interview
process that he was the best
man to lead this club moving forward,” said Phantoms
general manager Jason Koehler, who was promoted to
full-time GM when Noreen
left. “We’re excited that we
get to bring Youngstown an
outstanding young coach
that has had success and experience at high levels.”
After four seasons working with professionals, Wroblewski said he’s looking forward to making an impact
on players who need more
than on-ice advice. He said
there was no hesitation on
his part about returning to
the junior level.
“I’m looking forward to
working with players again
on a daily basis,” said Wroblewski, explaining that pro
coaches spend much less
time with players. “I want to
make an impact on people’s
lives. That is the intriguing
year at the age of 34.
“It seems like just yesterday I was here going through
the same learning phase
that my players are now experiencing,” Osborn said.
“In that regard, it’s very beneficial because I understand
the struggles. It’s a neverending learning process. But
I’m lucky, I have a very good
group of guys.”
Osborn said he has fond
memories of “an (Eastwood
Field) fan base that was really into its baseball.”
He credits his Scrappers
manager, Chris Bando, for
helping him both on and off
the field. He still keeps in
close contact with a number of players from the ‘02
Scrappers.
“Just looking around here,
I can’t help but have a great
feeling,” Osborn said.

championship with the Chicago Blackhawks last month,
Saad was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets. “I know in
an ideal world the Blackhawks
would have kept Brandon
Saad, but with the salary cap,
teams have to make concessions. He’s going to be a nightmare for opponents when he’s
teamed with Ryan Johansen.”
Pro coaching: After one
year as an assistant with the
ECHL’s Wheeling Nailers, Wroblewski was head coach of the
ECHL’s Gwinnett Gladiators for
two seasons. After the 2011-12
season, he was named Coach

“He kinda knows how it
all plays out because he’s
been there to experience it,”
the outfielder said.
Sam Starr, who plays second base, remembers the
fun of seeing friends playing
games televised by ESPN’s
networks.
“My family and I watched
the games after I came
home from baseball practice,” Starr said. “It was fun
getting to see people that we
know on television.
“Hopefully, we get to do
the same thing.”
If they do, pitching will be
the reason why.
“Our pitching is more
dominant than our hitting so I’d rather be in a 1-0
situation because I know
our pitching will pull us
through,” third baseman
Cory Rose said.
Iannizzario enjoys pitching but doesn’t mind sharing.
“If I’m not pitching any
place in the outfield is fine,”
he said. “I just want to do
what [is best] for my team.
Starr remembers the state
tournament two years ago
in Hamilton as a fun trip.
“It was an amazing experience for us,” the second
baseman said. “It was fun in
the hotel with the guys. We
played soft-baseball in the
hallways.”
Shortstop Trey Dye remembers how the team
went to Miami University
in Oxford and went on the
football field.
If things go well in Painesville, another road trip could
be in Canfield’s future.

Hall China assesses
damage from fire
Valley’s June jobless rate drops to 5.9 percent
digest
EAST LIVERPOOL
Hall China Co., 1 Anna St., a
century-old pottery plant, still
is assessing the damage from
a Monday evening fire, according to Vindicator broadcast partner 21 WFMJ-TV.
The fire was concentrated
in a large dryer at the plant.
An employee first noticed
smoke coming out of the
dryer doors about 5:30 p.m.
The fire was the result of
an equipment malfunction
but was put out quickly.
Most of the damage was
from water because of the
sprinkler system going off.
The plant, which employs 100, was still in full
production.

The Mahoning Valley unemployment rate continued
to remain below the 2014
rate in June.
In June, the Valley’s nonseasonally adjusted jobless
rate was 5.9 percent compared with 6.7 percent in
June 2014, according to data
released Tuesday by the
Ohio Department of Job and
Family Services.
“The bottom line in this
deluge of figures is that Ohio
and the Mahoning Valley
continue to recover from
the Great Recession,” said
George Zeller, a Clevelandbased economist. “But the
rate of recovery both in Ohio
and in the Valley continues
to be too slow to enable these
many thousands of workers
to find a new job, since our
growth rate remains continuously too slow and below
the national average.”
The number of unemployed went down from
17,000 in June 2014 to 14,900
in June 2015. Employment
went up from 235,700 in June
2014 to 237,100 in June 2015.
But the civ ilian labor
force dropped from 253,000
in June 2014 to 252,000 last
month.

Home Savings is a wholly

“We are very pleased with

Loans increased $90.7
million to $1.3 billion at
June 30, compared with
Dec. 31, 2014. Commercial

$60.4 million, drove this
improvement. Residential

from the $12.7 million recorded in the second quarter of 2014 and level with the
previous quarter. Net interest
margin was 3.16 percent for
the second quarter of 2015
compared with 3.09 percent in the second quarter
of 2014, and decreased from
the 3.24 percent net interest margin recorded in the
previous quarter – a result of
continued pressure on earning asset yields because of a
change in loan mix that the
company expects to improve
during the next quarter.
Home Savings had a negative provision for loan losses
of $753,000 in the second
quarter of 2015 compared
with $1.6 million of provision loan expense in the
same quarter last year, and
$184,000 of provision expense
in the previous quarter.
The increase in the provision expense during the sec-
loan growth.
An increase in the mortgage banking, driven by an
increase in the volume of
loans sold into the secondary
market, helped to increase the
noninterest income from $3.4
million in the second quarter
of 2014 to $5.3 million in the
second quarter of 2015.
Total noninterest expense
was $12.2 million in the
second quarter of 2015, a
decrease of $2 million over
the second quarter of 2014

at that time.
Total noninterest expense
decreased $473,000 from the

For the second quarter of
2015, the allowance for loan
loss as a percentage of total loans was 1.36 percent at
June 30 compared with 1.52
percent at Dec. 31, 2014, and
1.65 percent at June 30, 2014.
A new manufacturing
training center to provide future workers with
the training needed to fill
available jobs could open
in the city in three years.
The project is a joint effort of the Mahoning Valley
Manufacturers Coalition,
Youngstown; the Mahoning County Educational
Service Center; Eastern
Gateway Community College and Youngstown State
University, with Austintown and Struthers schools
joining in.
The initiative got a boost
this week when the state
Controlling Boa rd approved a $50,000 grant to
fund a feasibility study for
the center.
Jessica Borza, MVMC’s
executive director, said organizers hope the study,
being conducted by an architectural firm, is completed i n about t h ree
months.
The $50,000 grant is coming from the Local Government Innovation Fund.
“The whole premise of
the LGIF is to look to form
partnerships to improve efficiency,” Borza said. “Our
vision is to do exactly that.”
The involved entities recognize the need to provide
training for the manufacturing industry, but the equipment is expensive both to
buy and to keep current.
Rather than attempting to do it independently,
those educational institutions are joining forces to
create the center.
The proposed center will
incorporate science, technology, engineering and
mathematics education,
welding, manual/CNS machining, industrial maintenance/mechatronics and
aspects of manufacturing
eng i neer i ng prog ra mming.
Part of the study will determine the dollar amount
required as well as the location for the Youngstown
Mahoning Valley Manufacturing Training Center.
The facility will be in the
city, Borza said.
“We’d like it to be within
walking distance of YSU
and Eastern Gateway,” she
said.
How quickly the facility
would be up and running
depends on where it will be
located.
“It will depend on whether we move in to an existing
building or build one from
scratch,” Borza said.
Three years is the working assumption, she said.
After the cost is estimated, grant money as well as
funding from other sources
will be sought.
The facility primarily will
offer post-secondary training. School districts and
career and technical centers, however, may use it as
a way to expose students to
manufacturing and manufacturing trades, the executive director said.
Such a facility is needed
in the Mahoning Valley
because there’s a lack of
people with the needed
skills to fi ll available jobs.
Compounding the problem, officials have said, is
the number of people with
those skills who are at or
near retirement age.

The leap to slam was a gamble
not really justified by his holding,
but we appreciate his problem.
South had only 10 tricks to
start with, so he had to assume
the king of spades was with East
to have any chance. That would
give him eleven tricks and some
chances for another – a 3-3 split
in spades first on the list. Declarer won the opening diamond lead
with the ace in dummy and immediately drew trumps. He cashed
the ace and king of trumps in his
hand and led the nine of trumps
to dummy’s 10, West discarding a diamond. This was followed
with a low spade from dummy,
and the king appearing from East
was a pleasant sight.
East reverted to diamonds,
won in dummy with the king.
South ruffed a diamond at this
point and something wonderful
happened. West, who was down
to 4-4 in the major suits, couldn’t
find a winning discard. West
chose to part with a heart, allowing South to cash the ace-king of
hearts and ruff a heart. This established the nine of hearts as a
winner and declarer’s 12th trick.
Well done!

LONDON
A British lawmaker is defending claiming
9 pence ($0.14) on expenses for a short car
journey, saying such claims may look “odd”
but the mileage adds up.
Conservative lawmaker Rob Wilson said
the 352-yard journey in March 2014 was a
“constituency engagement.”
He also made several other small claims
for short journeys, including 13 pence for a
trip in his car to attend a business meeting.
Wilson told Metro News on Tuesday he
was an active lawmaker who often met with
local voters. He said many of his trips are
fairly short but add up because he takes a
number of them each week.
Beginning the end of July, British lawmakers will get a 10 percent pay increase from
$104,271 to $115,000 a year.

SHARON, PA.
Craft beer lovers in Sharon are buzzing with excitement these days. The
grand opening of the Brewtus Brewing Co. on July 10
marked the first time Mercer County has ever had an
active brew pub.
The pub, in downtown
Sharon, is in the former
Chestnut Bar and a stone’s
throw from the Three By
The River complex. The interior has been beautifully
re designed by co-owner
John LaRocca, who spent
20-plus years in the contracting business before
joining his partner, Brewmaster Jason Camerlengo,
in the venture.
Camerlengo is a Brookfield native and a 2007 graduate of Youngstown State
University with a degree
in business information
systems. He spent seven
years working in the technology field before starting
Brewtus. The influence of
his background is evident
in his approach to brewing
beer.
“We are incorporating
many of the newest and
most advanced technological tools in our brewing
process. It is pretty amazing how you can use tech
to make better beer if you

Family Features
When most people think of the
rich, smoky flavor of barbecue on
the grill, they’re thinking of a slab
of meaty ribs or a plump, juicy
chicken basted with their favorite
sauce.
This summer, wow your friends
and family by extending your
barbecue prowess to other menu
items, such as appetizers.
As any barbecue aficionado will
tell you, the secret is in the sauce.
A smoky, sweet blend like you
find in KC Masterpiece Barbecue
Sauce is the perfect combination
of rich tomato sauce, molasses and
spices to guarantee a delicious
meal for the whole family to enjoy.
Created by barbecue enthusiast
and physician Dr. Rich Davis, it
pleases palates with an authentic
barbecue taste that brings just the
right flavor for broiling, baking,
grilling, and using as an ingredient in recipes ranging from sides
to apps.
Another way to enhance grilled
foods and make the most of grilling
season is by using wood chips or
planks, along with Kingsford Charcoal, to build on the grill’s natural
smoky flavor and infuse other rich
tastes, such as hickory or apple.
Scatter dry chips directly on the
coals and wait for them to begin
smoking before placing food on
the grill.
Keep the lid closed while cooking
to create a stronger smoky flavor.
This appetizer, created by barbecue sauce expert and cookbook
author Ardie Davis combines the
best of barbecue sauce and seasoned wood flavors for an easy and
unique starter — perfect for summer entertaining.
Smoking the goat cheese adds
depth that perfectly complements
the sweetness of the barbecue
sauce and apricot preserves.

DECORATE WITH COLOR
Color adds a pop of personality to any party. Kick

matches your unique party
theme. Use the new Wilton
Color Right Color System to
take the guesswork out of
coloring icing, fondant, cake
batter and other treats. You
can easily mix the colors you
need to coordinate sweet
treats to match your party
decor.
Unlike traditional food
coloring, the Wilton Color
Right performance color system includes eight bottles of
ultra-concentrated base color and precise QuickCount
color formulas to make mixing and matching color a
piece of cake.
QuickCount color formulas show you drop by
drop how to whip up precise shades of color to match
unique party decor, logos
and themed character cakes.
Plus, new color formulas are
added to www.Wilton.com
and you can create custom
colors.
Another impressive, yet
easy, decorating trick is a
three color icing swirl, which
is easy to achieve using the
new Color Swirl Tri-Color
Coupler. It’s quick, easy and
looks professional.
BAKE WITH FLAVOR
Just like color, you can mix
and match flavor to bake delicious flavor-infused treats.
The Wilton Treatology Flavor System makes it easy to
infuse treats with unexpected yet perfectly-paired flavors, like these Fruity Cereal
Pinwheel Cookies.
Follow easy drop-by-drop
QuickCount flavor recipes to
make unique flavor-infused
desserts, like Horchata Cupcakes and Coconut Creme
Brulee Cookies and 30 more
unique recipes. Use individual flavor concentrates
such as Champagne, Sweet
Meyer Lemon, Fresh Basil,
Warm Cinnamon Graham,
Juicy Peach, Salted Caramel,
Creamy Vanilla Custard and
Toasted Coconut to infuse
icing, filling and cake batter
with unique tastes, or combine them to create your
own unique flavor combinations.
DISPLAY YOUR WAY
Now that your treats are
personalized for the party,
it’s time to show them off.
The Display Your Way Cupcake Stand is fit for any occasion. The fillable core is
perfect for incorporating
fun party details like ribbon, candy and even matching napkins. The adjustable
treat tower serves five to 25
cupcakes, so you can display
the perfect number of treats

Hard-hitting role
By STEVEN REA
The Philadelphia Inquirer
I
f you thought Jake Gyllenhaal’s transformation for
last year’s “Nightcrawler”
was extreme – losing weight
and gaining a creepy intensity to play a feral freelance
video cameraman trolling
the streets of L.A. – look at the
actor in “Southpaw.”
You may not recognize the man.
As Billy “The Great” Hope, a pro
boxer who grew up in a Hell’s Kitchen foster home and now owns the
title of light-heavyweight champion
of the world, 34-year-old Gyllenhaal
is all muscle, sinew, tattoos, bling.
He’s a prizefighter who prides himself on the punishment he can take
in the ring — before he delivers the
final blows to his opponents. Billy’s
record? 43 and 0. And to see Gyllenhaal in “Southpaw,” which opens
Friday, is to believe it.
Harvey Weinstein, whose eponymous company is distributing the
Antoine Fuqua-directed drama, has
declared that this is the role that will
win Gyllenhaal his Oscar. While
hyperbole is typical of the veteran
showman, he may have to be taken
seriously this time around. Gyllenhaal trained six hours a day, seven
days a week for six months, running,
jumping, weightlifting and sparring
under the tutelage of former boxer
Terry Claybon.
“I was a Mike Tyson fan as a kid –
it’s kind of hard not to be when you
grew up in the ’90s,” Gyllenhaal says.
“But I was a man who knew very
little about boxing. ... And I knew
that to pull it off, I was going to have
to learn how to do it.”
In “Southpaw,” Gyllenhaal’s Billy
is living the life: a mansion in the
’burbs, a beautiful wife (Rachel McAdams), a daughter (Oona Laurence)
who loves him, a posse of friends
– including his longtime manager,
played by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson –
at his side. Billy’s bouts have earned
him millions, but to assuage his
wife’s fears that he’s damaging his
body, and his brain, he agrees to a
hiatus.
Then, one evening, it all collapses.
His title, his family, his respect, his
property, his bank accounts — gone.
“Southpaw,” co-starring Forest Whitaker as the neighborhood boxinggym owner who trains Billy in his
against-the-odds comeback try, is
classic pugilist melodrama. Life is
brutal. Punching somebody over
12 rounds in the ring? Brutal. Going
to court to fight for custody of your
child? Brutal.
“There are so many things that
we’ve seen before in boxing movies,” says Gyllenhaal, on the phone
from Los Angeles last weekend and
not even feeling the need to mention those movies by name. (We will:
“Rocky,” “Raging Bull,” “The Fighter,”
“The Champ,” “Somebody Up There
Likes Me,” “Body and Soul.”)
“So, how do you make it seem original?” he asks. “For me, and for Antoine, the thing that’s original about
this movie is Billy Hope. It’s who he
is, and what he goes through, and
what he experiences. A guy who’s
trying to get his life back together
and learn how to become a dad and
learn how to become a man. ...
“That’s what’s at the heart of this
movie: a guy who’s been through
the system, knows how it works,
used his rage to beat the system, but
ultimately, it’s that same rage that
destroys him. And he has to find his
way back, learn how to grow up and
do good.”
Gyllenhaal says that he first met
Fuqua, the director of “Training
Day” and “The Equalizer,” a halfdozen years ago at one of “those
Hollywood lunch meetings where
somebody tells you how much they
want to work with you, and you don’t
believe them.”
So the actor, nominated for an
Academy Award for his work opposite Heath Ledger in 2005’s cowboy
love story, “Brokeback Mountain,”
went about his business — business
that included some very fine work in
“End of Watch” (2012) and “Prisoners” (2013).
“And then, about a year and a half
ago, we met again about this project, and Antoine was like, ‘I told you
when we met last time there is something I see in you that I want to bring
out.’ And I was like, ‘Really?’”
Really.
So, Gyllenhaal began his training – with Fuqua, who has boxed for
years, right alongside him. And the
actor came to appreciate what boxing was about.
“Obviously, it’s a brutal sport,” Gyllenhaal says. “But I also think it’s a
sport full of grace, and at the highest
level ... it’s about an exchange of the
minds.”
I WAS A MIKE TYSON FAN AS A KID – IT’S KIND OF
HARD NOT TO BE WHEN YOU GREW UP IN THE ’90S.”

YOUNGSTOWN
The Randy and Mr. Lahey
show, from “Trailer Park
Boys,” a Canadian comedy
television show, will come to
Ford Family Recital Hall, 260
W. Federal St., on Sept. 19 for
an 8 p.m. performance.
Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door.
A limited number of VIP
tickets are available for $45,
and include early admission, a meet-and-greet and
a cheeseburger with Randy
and Mr. Lahey before the
show.
Tickets go on sale at 10
a.m. Friday at ticketfly.com.
The Randy and Mr. Lahey
show is described in a news
release as a silly, sexist,
drunken hour and a half of
songs and skits, audience
participation, profanity,
Shakespeare and general
hilarity.
The innocent honesty
of an out-of-control ex-cop
trailer-park supervisor and
his sidekick Randy is for fans
18 and over.
RECORD REVIEWS
TAME IMPALA
Album: “Currents”
Grade: B
“Yes, I’m changing,” croons
Kevin Parker on track four of
“Currents,” Tame Impala’s third
album. It’s a statement of purpose set to a slow soul jam, but
by that point in the record, he’s
declaring the obvious: While
Tame Impala used to traffic in
neo-psychedelia with heavy
guitars and woozy vocals, now
Parker (who recorded “Currents” alone) is interested in the
keyboard-based grooves of ’80s
R&B and the production manipulations of contemporary
hip-hop. It’s a radical change, although maybe not entirely surprising, given his work on Mark
Ronson’s “Uptown Special.”
“Currents” opens with “Let
It Happen,” a nearly eight-minute, continually morphing track
that rides a steady disco beat. It
wouldn’t sound out of place on
a Daft Punk or a Caribou album.
Lyrically, “Currents” is largely a
break-up record: Parker could
as well be separating from Tame
Impala’s past musical style as
from a lover.
—Steve Klinge, Associated Press
WILCO
Album: “Star Wars”
Grade: B
“Star Wars” is Wilco’s shortest album, coming in at a featherweight 33 minutes, nearly the
same length as Against Me!’s
“blink and you’ll miss it” “Transgender Dysphoria Blues.” And
like that album, there’s a wonderful, punkish energy populating most of the songs on “Star
Wars.” Gone are the Grateful
Dead-style jammy breakdowns
of 10-minute plus tracks like
“One Sunday Morning” or “Spiders (Kidsmoke).” Instead, we
get jumpy pop statements like
“Random Name Generator” or
the fuzzy mid-’70s guitar groove
(courtesy of Nels Cline’s nearpeerless guitar work) of “Pickled Ginger.”
—Sean McCarthy, popmatters.com
JOSS STONE
Album: “Water for Your Soul”
Grade: C+
Joss Stone has never hid her
ambitions to conquer the globe.
In her public statements and
on her recordings, Stone’s persona has always been boastful and proud. She’s currently
on a world tour in which she
plans to visit 204 countries in
three years. Stone is also taking on world music on her reggae-based new album, “Water
for Your Soul.” The results are
somewhat mixed. Sometimes
the “riddims” set her free to pursue her muse in creative ways.
Other times, the beats seem to
slow her down when she should
be frolicking harder. It varies
from cut to cut, but on the whole
Stone’s music provides a pleasant soundtrack for everyday
living.

Every day in Society.
He
wants
romance,
but she
doesn’t
Dear Annie: I am a divorced male in my mid50s. A couple of years ago,
I met a divorced woman
through a mutual friend.
We share a common hobby, which led to us spending hours of time together,
often just the two of us.
I asked my lady friend
early on if she was interested in dating. She told
me she had recently been
through a bad breakup
with her live-in boyfriend.
She thought it would be
nice to have someone
with whom to go out for
dinner, but she wasn’t
interested in a sexual relationship with anyone.
I accepted that. As time
went on, however, we
became closer. Although
there was never anything
physical between us, we
had what I considered
“dates,” where I would pick
her up and we’d have dinner. I thought it was only a
matter of time before our
relationship became romantic and intimate.
I recently learned that,
for the entire time I have
known her, my lady friend
has been having a sexual
affair with another guy
who already has a live-in
girlfriend. When I confronted her, she neither
admitted it nor denied it.
Instead, she said her sex
life was none of my business.
I think I’ve been used
for two years. I enjoyed
our time together, but I
never would have spent
so much of it with this
woman if I’d known she
had a sexual partner. We
are no longer seeing each
other, and although that
is probably for the best, it
is awkward since we have
mutual friends.
What do you think?
Feeling Used
Dear Feeling: We think
this woman definitely took
advantage of you, but we
also believe you went into
this with different expectations. The woman needed someone to squire her
around for dinner and
such, and could not do so
with her already-attached
boyfriend. You were a convenience, and she misled
you. You, however, assumed there would be an
eventual sexual relationship with a woman who
told you upfront that she
wasn’t interested (the reason is irrelevant). If you had
instead considered her to
be simply a friend, with no
other agenda, you could
have enjoyed dinners out
and hobby time without
feeling used.
It’s time to let it go. You
made a mistake getting
involved with her, but it
shouldn’t shame you into
avoiding your mutual
friends. Hold your head
up, be civil around her, and
look for romantic companionship elsewhere.
Dear Annie: I thought
I was being respectful by
addressing ladies using
the title “Ma’am.” Recently, I said that to a woman
and she responded, ”My
name is Mrs. X. I am not
a ‘Ma’am!’”
What do you think?
Lafayette, La.
Dear Lafayette: We think
some people are too easily
offended. We all have a preferred term of address, but
we cannot expect others, especially strangers, to know
what that is. One doesn’t
chastise a person for being
polite. For those of you who
have been unintentionally
insulted and feel the need
to respond, simply correct
the person in a gentle manner so they will know for
next time.

Broken
glass
requires
care
Dear Heloise: I dropped
a glass in the kitchen, and
it shattered all over the
tile floor. I tried sweeping
and vacuuming, but there
still were slivers left. I took
a slice of bread, placed
it over the slivers and
pressed gently. The slivers
stuck to the bread easily.
Youngstown Lions install president, members
Adam Costello, the outgoing president of the Youngstown Lions Club, presented the gavel to incoming President George Kolesar at an installation luncheon June 25 at the Upstairs Restaurant in Austintown. Past District Gov. Bob Booher installed the new officers and directors in a candlelight ceremony. Nicole Evanski of Lane Funeral Homes became the club’s newest member. New member Shirley Christian, a
judge in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court, was not able to attend. Ed Brant, a member for 41 years, received the Melvin Jones Award.
He serves as Santa at the club’s annual Christmas Party for developmentally disabled children. From left are Brant, Kolesar, Booher,
Costello and Evanski.

Updated Heloise
Dear Heloise: After a
number of years of grilling cheeseburgers and
having to clean melted
cheese off the grill, I had a
“eureka” moment. I take a
slice of cheese, lay it in my
hand and fold all four corners into the center of the
slice. It makes a smaller
slice and eliminates most
of the mess.

Julie, this old, old Heloise
hint came from my mother’s
column more than 50 years
ago! I have said do not do
this for years, although you
can find this out-of-date
hint all over the Internet.
Is someone looking at old
hints books?
This old hint is not safe
for animals or small children who may get into the
trash. Use several damp
paper towels; in fact, I think
they work better!
Tribute to Women honors Judge Robb
Judge Carol Ann Robb
of the Mahoning County
Seventh District Court of
Appeals was among several
women honored recently
when the Federation of Republican Women gathered
for its Biennial Tribute to

service to the community,
her promotion of Republican candidates and values,
and her support of election
candidates. Qualifications
for the award include serving in government offices,
accomplishing professional endeavors, successfully
raising a family and volunteering in civic and/or
church organizations.
Robb was nominated

Dear Heloise : Many

can you just leave it loose?

If the recipe says to pack,
yes, you should. Generally,
brown sugar has some “air”
in it, so you want to eliminate that.

TODAY’S HOROSCOPE
Happy Birthday! In the next
year: You'll start your new year
finishing old business. As you revisit and revive projects, you'll find
that you have the experience, skills
and judgment that were missing
before. Big money months are
August, November and February.
A personal dream becomes real
as you carry your intention all the
way through the finish line. Aries
and Sagittarius people adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 4, 29, 22,
19 and 17.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: She's
been a show-biz pro since her
childhood days of singing with
Barney. With her recent single
"Good for You" working the charts,
Selena Gomez lives up to the
Mars/Taurus placement she was
born under. This pop star came
to Earth when the sun was on the
cusp of Cancer and Leo, and the
moon was in headstrong Aries to
further amp that passionate firesign energy.
a ARIES (March 21-April 19).
There are times when genuine outrage is warranted, but those times
are few and far between. Mostly,
there's no good reason to get riled
up. Keep your cool, and everyone
around you will, too.
b TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
For those planning a trip, ignore
the rule about houseguests and
fish at your own peril. No matter
how charming and loved you are,
anything still lingering after three
days starts to smell.
c G E M I N I (May 21-June
21). Some people believe other
people's lifestyles are somehow an
affront to their own. It makes no
sense to you -- you're a live-andlet-live sort. Let them argue it out
while you're busy making money
today.
d CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Usually when you reach the point
of being irritated with absolutely
everyone in the world, the one
you're really mad at is you. Your
issue with yourself? You haven't
given yourself the much-needed
break you deserve.
e LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Too
many ingredients spoil the soup
-- or the project, relationship,
schedule, etc. Stick to the recipe.
Great patience and restraint will be
required for exemplary results.
f V I R G O (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Certain friends bring out your
quick humor, and others make
you feel like you're always dodging
conversational quicksand. Why
put yourself in uncomfortable
situations? Choose your company
carefully.
g LIBR A (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
As for that group of hotheads you
have to operate in, sometimes
you wonder how you landed in an
environment so rich in narcissism
and delusion. Your main goal will
be not to become like them.
YELLOW
BLACK
CLASSIFIEDS
WWW.VINDY.COM
MAGENTA
h SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Before you invent a new way to get
to the goal, give the old one a try. If
it works, it will save you unnecessary effort. Your brain is best put
to work on a problem that hasn't
been solved by anyone yet.
i SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Manipulation is when you trick
someone into wanting what you'd
like them to want. It leads to nothing good. You want to influence
others to be their best, but they
have to want that, too.
j CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). This is a day when your
body knows more than you do
about what it needs. Listen to the
muscles and appetites that live in
you. Trust your physical instinct.
k A Q U A R I U S (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). You'll have some explaining to
do, not because your actions are
so outside the norm, but because
you'll be dealing with people who
simply don't get what's going on.
l P I S C E S (Feb. 19-March 20).
Today, the most effective solution
will be so obvious that it's easy to
miss. That's why the opinions of
inexperienced people will be so
valuable to you. The very young
and the very old will be especially
lucky to have on your side.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"There's a girl I know. She's a
Scorpio, and ever since I met her,
I've been writing poetry, music,
raps, dancing and drawing. I never
used to do those things before,
but this girl makes me want to be
super-creative. I'm a Capricorn.
Do you think I should give her the
things I've made and written for
her? I don't want her to think I'm
weird."
She's your muse! It is a remarkable gift she has given you just by
being herself, as her energy has
opened up new possibilities inside
you. This awakening of hidden
talents is beautiful, and your willingness to act on the feelings and
turn them into unique expressions
of you is a wonderful happening.
Savor it and keep the spark alive
inside you.
Whether to show her your works
is a separate issue. Go carefully,
because Scorpios are very private
people, and if that privacy is invaded or threatened, they shut out
the perpetrator with an emotional
barrier that's nearly impossible
to break through. Get to know her
first. Establish rapport, friendship
and trust before introducing her to
your many talents.
