NEW YORK It was a far cry from “The

buck stops here.”President Donald Trump,

dealt a stinging defeat with the failure of the Republi-

can health care bill in t h e S e n -

ate, fl ipped the script from Harry Truman’s famous declaration of presidential responsibility and declared Tuesday, “I am not going to own it.”

He had tweeted earlier, “We were let down by all of the Democrats and a few Republicans.”

This is the same presi-dent who thundered night after night on the cam-paign trail that it would be “so easy” to repeal and replace the Obama health care law on Day One of his administration.

Tr y and tweet as he might, Trump can’t now avoid a share of the blame for the stall-out of that re-peal effort.

It’s a president’s burden to shoulder the nation’s problems whether they are inherited or created in real time. Barack Obama took office with the American economy facing its worst crisis since the Great De-pression. John F. Kennedy accepted responsibility for the failure of the invasion of Cuba at the Bay of Pigs, ordered on his own watch.

“That’s the nature of being elected president: You own the policies, the economy and the govern-ment,” said presidential historian Julian Zelizer, a professor at Princeton Uni-versity. “You own the posi-tives and negatives of the job whether you think it’s your fault or not. You live in the White House: You

can’t disassociate yourself from what happens if you don’t like it.”

Trump took offi ce armed with Republican control of both houses of Congress and an ambitious agenda that would begin with the repeal and replacement of Obamacare. Six months later, the collapse of the GOP plan was a sharp rebuke for the president, who was unable to cajole or threaten Republicans to stay in line and who exerted little of his dimin-ished political capital to see through a promise that had been at the core of his party since Obamacare be-came law seven years ago.

The president’s disjoint-ed support for the health care plan did little to per-suade Republicans to sup-port it, and the fact that his approval ratings had dropped below 40 percent didn’t help, either.

Trump never had a news conference or delivered a major speech to sell the bill to the public. He never leveraged his popularity among rank-and-file Re-publican voters by barn-storming the districts of wavering GOP senators. And he never spearheaded a coherent communica-tions strategy – beyond random tweets – to push for the plan.

“The best way to mo-tivate members is talk to their constituents, and at no point did he try to talk to Americans about health care reform in any sort of serious way,” said Alex Co-nant, a Republican strate-gist who worked on Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s 2016 presidential campaign. “His attention seems to drift with whatever is on cable news on any given

moment as opposed to what is on the Senate fl oor any given week.”

Sounding almost like a bystander during his brief Oval Offi ce remarks Tues-day, Trump six times ex-pressed “disappointment” that the Republican effort had failed. And he insist-ed the fault rested with Democrats and suggested Obamacare should be left to fail on its own.

“I’m not going to own it,” Trump insisted. “I can tell you that Republicans are not going to own it.”

D emo c r at s bl a s t e d Trump’s blame game, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer saying his refusal to accept responsi-bility demonstrated “such a lack of leadership.”

“That is such a small and petty response,” Schumer said.

Despite Trump’s efforts to shift blame across the aisle, the White House made little effort to court Democrats.

Instead of initially pur-suing an infrastructure plan – which would have likely received support from unions and blue-col-lar workers, making it hard for Democrats to oppose – Trump opted to tackle the far more polarizing issue of health care fi rst. He out-sourced most of the work to House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

It became a strictly Re-publican effort which, due to the party’s slight advan-tages in the House and Senate, had little margin for error. And it was con-servatives from Trump’s own wing of the Republi-can party who thwarted him.

Eastern Gateway Commu-nity College will be home to the second Barnes & Noble college bookstore in down-town Youngstown starting this fall.

Arthur Daly, dean of the EGCC Youngstown campus, said the new bookstore will occupy the space that for-merly housed the downtown Los Gallos restaurant.

The EGCC Barnes & Noble bookstore will include a cafe as well as a “spirit store” with EGCC-branded mer-chandise and apparel.

“The new bookstore helps the branding of downtown, and it helps build the notori-ety of the programs and the success of EGCC and what we’re trying to accomplish,” Daly said.

Domestic violenceWARREN

Judge Peter Kontos of Trumbull County Common Pleas Court sentenced Amato P. Zaccone, 57, of Abbey Street in Girard, to more than four years in pris-on after Zaccone was con-victed at trial last month of his ninth domestic-violence charge.

The victim did not testify at the trial, but she called 911 Jan. 27 from their Hubbard home asking for help be-cause Zaccone had caused a cut on her forehead and “put her on the ground,” Gabe Wildman, an assistant county prosecutor said.

Amato’s sentence is three years on the felony domestic violence and an additional 518 days for a parole violation.

U.S. CONGRESS

Johnson, Ryan each raise more than $300K in 2QBy DAVID [email protected]

YOUNGSTOWNU.S. Reps. Bill Johnson and Tim

Ryan, both without opponents so far for the 2018 election, posted strong second quarters, each raising more than $300,000 toward re-election efforts.

Johnson, of Marietta, R-6th, raised $337,262 between April and June while Ryan, of Howland, D-13th, received $319,125 in contributions during the same time period, ac-cording to their latest Federal Elec-tion Commission campaign-fi nance reports.

Included in Johnson’s total is $30,000 he loaned his campaign June 30, the last day of the filing quarter, despite having nearly $1 million in his fund without it.

When asked to explain Johnson’s $30,000 loan, Mark Weaver, a cam-paign spokesman for the Republi-can congressman, said, “We have internal goals to reach for fundrais-ing, and this was one of them. We have goals each month and each quarter. He’s loaned money [to his campaign] before.”

Weaver declined to disclose de-tails of the internal goals, but this was among Johnson’s best cam-

paign fundraising quarters even with-out the loan.

J o h n s o n , w h o would seek a fifth two-year term in the U.S. House next year, spent $108,218 between April and June.

That included $33,672 to 814 Con-sulting LLC, an Alexandria, Va., campaign fundraising consulting firm; and $15,000 each to the Na-tional Republican Congressional Committee, the organization that leads the charge to get Republi-

cans elected to the U.S. House, and Red Brick Strategies of Columbus, also a campaign fundrais-ing consulting fi rm.

Johnson raised $528,774 and spent $301,737 during the first six months of

this year. He had $1,014,878 in his campaign fund as of June 30 be-cause of money he had in his ac-count heading into 2017.

Man getsyear in jailon guncharge

By JOE [email protected]

YOUNGSTOWNJudge Lou D’Apolito of

Mahoning County Common Pleas Court said he wants people to know there are consequences if they use a fi rearm they legally own and carry the wrong way.

The judge sentenced Mau-rice Jones, 32, of Glenmont Avenue, to one year in the county jail after fi nding him guilty of a count of carrying a concealed weapon after Jones pleaded no contest.

Jones had a concealed-carry permit in January 2016, when he was accused of fi ring a gun in January in a Matta Avenue home dur-ing a fi ght he originally was not involved in. A person was wounded in that shoot-ing but subsequently recov-ered.

Judge D’Apolito said Jones had also been drinking at the time and he did not show good judgment by not only using his gun but also hav-ing it with him in the first place.

“You can’t mix booze with bullets,” Judge D’Apolito said.

Tom Zena, Jones’ attorney, asked for probation. He said Jones lost a good job when he was arrested and he has never been in trouble be-fore.

Zena said his client was the victim of an attack twice, including one time when a gun was held against his head, which is the reason why he applied for and re-ceived a concealed-carry permit in the fi rst place.

That permit has been re-voked since Jones’ arrest.

Jones also apologized, saying his actions that night have left him embarrassed.

police dogs Rocky and Thor, their day was Tuesday.

The Canfield Police Department officially celebrated at Canfield City Hall the induction of its new police dog Rocky and the retire-ment of veteran police dog Thor.

After eight years on the force, Thor, 11, was given a badge of service from Chief Chuck Co-lucci and a send-off from the de-partment.

Thor was no longer able to per-form his duties after he was diag-nosed with arthritis and hip dis-plasia, a common condition in German shepherds. He stopped working on the force in March, but despite his maladies, Thor maintains a positive demeanor. At the party, he greeted attend-ees, played with toys, posed for photos and, on multiple occa-sions, perused the refreshments table.

“He’s like a puppy in the hay,” said Chad DeBarr, the canine

cludes all of Columbiana – the most-populous county in the 6th District – and eight townships in southern Mahoning.

Ryan, who would seek a ninth two-year term in Congress next year, spent $124,953 between April and June.

Among his biggest expens-es were $23,500 to Veracity Media LLC of Washington, D.C., for digital strategy con-sulting expenses; $9,815 to Fraioli & Associates of Wash-ington, D.C., for fundraising consulting fees and expens-es; and $7,000 to Blue Point Group LLC, also of D.C., for a fundraising consulting fee.

Ryan raised $531,865 and spent $385,573 during the fi rst six months of this year. Heading into the second quarter, Ryan had $179,454 in his campaign fund. With the amount he netted be-tween April and June, Ryan more than doubled his cam-paign fund to $391,763 as of June 30.

His five-county district includes most of Mahoning and Trumbull counties.

“Every day I wake up, I regret everything that took place that day,” Jones said.

The judge also noted let-ters of support Jones received from his family that men-tioned he has a temper when he drinks. Judge D’Apolito said he wants Jones to get help for that problem while he is in the jail.

Because Jones has no prior criminal record, Judge D’Apolito said he did not think sending him to pris-on was necessary. But he did say some punishment was necessary because he used his gun in a way that was reckless and could have killed someone.

“I just don’t think it’s the message you send this com-munity that you can legally have a gun on you, and get drunk, get in a fi ght, pull it and use it,” Judge D’Apolito said.

body seem unscathed, even though she was ejected from the car during the collision. When Tatar saw the para-medics trying to give Alivia CPR, she was confused and thought to herself, “But there’s nothing wrong with her.”

In the months since, Ta-tar has tried her best to keep busy. She says it baffl es her when people tell her how strong she is.

“I don’t feel strong,” Tatar said. “I lost my whole life. What are my options? To not live or to go on for her. You have to learn to live. I’m not me anymore. A huge part of me is gone, and she took it with her.”

Tatar is now a member of Mothers Against Drunk

Driving. To feel closer to Alivia, she has dyed her hair purple, Alivia’s favorite color, and she wears her daughter’s ashes in a necklace.

She’s also started a Face-book group, called “Livin’ for Livi.” The group encourages people to carry out small acts of kindness in Alivia’s name and then to share those stories online.

While Alivia was her only biological child, Tatar has a large extended family. She describes them as a vital source of support.

Although she lived with Alivia for the past six years in South Carolina, Tatar grew up in Struthers.

Alivia traveled frequently to the Youngstown area, and she loved being able to see snow.

In Alivia’s honor, there will be treats and a bonfire at the Mount Carmel Festival

in Youngstown this week. There was also a “Livin’ for Livi” float at the Struthers Fourth of July parade.

Tatar hopes to move back to the Mahoning Valley. Her home in South Carolina has too many memories of Alivia. Every afternoon, she expects to see her daughter coming down the street on her bike.

“There’s nothing like los-ing a child,” Tatar said.

Tatar has noticed many people are hesitant about interacting w ith some-one who is grieving. When people approach her, they seem cautious about bring-ing up Alivia. In actuality, Tatar says, she welcomes any chance to talk about her daughter.

“When people pass away, don’t be afraid to say their names,” Tatar said. “We all want to be remembered.”

unit’s officer. “He’ll play forever.”

In November, Thor was responsible for tracking a little girl in North Jack-son who ran away from home. Doctors told De-Barr that if Thor found her 20 minutes later, she would have succumbed to hypothermia.

Police dogs and handlers for Boardman, Springfi eld township and the Ma-honing County sheriff’s departments, with whom DeBarr trains alongside weekly, were present for the ceremony.

Colucci said the depart-ment had some fi nancial concerns when Thor had to stop working, and was unsure of whether it could afford a replacement.

The city was subject to cutbacks, and a new police dog wasn’t in the cards.

When Thor could no longer work, the depart-ment wasn’t going to be able to continue the

police dog program, he said.

The Rotary Club of Can-fi eld gave the department a grant of $14,000 to pur-chase Rocky. The club’s yearly fundraising efforts left it with excess funds, enough for purchase of the dog.

“Canfi eld Police Depart-ment gives so much to us, so it was nice to give back,” said Don Dragish Jr., city council member and per-sonal relations chairman for the rotary.

Rocky is a Croatian-born Dutch shepherd. The department purchased him from Shallow Creek Kennels in Sharpsville, Pa., a kennel responsible for breeding, training and importing police dogs to serve on area forces.

Rocky is a dual-purpose canine, which means he’s trained in tracking, drug detection, handler pro-tection and area, build-ing and article searches. DeBarr said Rocky al-ready has found drugs on searches in his short time on the force.

CAMPBELLA simple story from a

Campbell cop has netted attention on social media.

Offi cer Rory Timlin took to Facebook after his af-ternoon shift Monday took a turn for the better.

In a status update, Tim-lin wrote about starting his workday with a call about a 3-year-old boy, who had purportedly been abused.

Timlin said he made a home visit, which did not result in enough evidence for an arrest. He said the sit-uation was heartbreaking.

“He was adorable, and you just feel so helpless,” said Timlin, who has been work-ing for the Campbell Police Department since May.

Ti m l i n was feel i ng frustrated and ineffec-tual, when he drove past

a group of kids shooting hoops near 12th Street. He asked to join, and they tossed Timlin a ball as he got out of his cruiser.

They played a quick game of two-on-two, and Timlin took some photos with his iPad.

Timlin missed some shots, but said boys were gallant enough to blame those on his bulky police gear.

After being shared on a law-enforcement Face-book page called “Ohio Going Blue,” Timlin’s post gained more than 400 likes and 60 shares.

“This just goes to show you that although the world is fi lled with sorrow and bad things happening to good people every day, it is equally full of happiness and love. Take the time to see that,” Timkin wrote.

Uranus cannot be seen from Earth with the naked eye. It was the first planet discovered with the aid of a telescope.

Uranus was discovered in 1781 by astronomer William Herschel. At first he thought it was a comet or a star. Another astronomer, Johann Elert Bode, confirmed that it was a planet and the quest for a name began.

Sir William Herschel wanted to name the planet Georgium Sidus after King George III. Astronomer Johann Bode suggested keeping with the previous tradition of naming planets after ancient Roman

gods. Bode suggested naming the planet for Uranus, the god of the sky. But he made an error. Uranus was not a Roman god! Uranus was a Greek god.

How Uranus Got Its Name

= A = E = G = O = R = S = T

All of the moons circling planets in our solar system are

named for Roman gods, except the moons of Uranus.

These are named for characters in works by

William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope.

Do the math problem under each name. Uranus’ moons are the ones with even numbers.

Odd-numbered are not a name of one of Uranus’ moons.

the facility, Ryan said. The details were finalized late Monday, he said.

The Trump campaign sent emails about the rally about 5:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Trump’s campaign had considered an event at Cov-elli last year, Ryan said, but instead the then-candidate had a rally at Winner Avia-tion at Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport in Vienna.

“To have the president of the United States at the facil-ity is an honor and we’re very excited,” Ryan said. “To have a sitting president in our fa-cility and in our town is awe-some.”

Mahoning County Repub-lican Party Chairman Mark Munroe said: “Washington

Democrats hate him, the mainstream media despise him, inside-the-beltway Re-publicans aren’t sure what to make of him, but middle America loves him. Tuesday, he’s coming to the heart of America where thousands of Democrats crossed over to vote for him, and it’s going to be great.”

But U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of Howland, D-13th, said: “Donald Trump made a lot of promises to Youngstown, and communities that look a lot like ours, and I am eager to hear if he has plans to imple-ment any of them. As of now, I have only seen a long line of broken promises. We need good-paying jobs. We need an infrastructure package that brings us into the 21st century. We need to address the opioid epidemic that is

ripping apart families here in Ohio and across the country. We need to increase coverage and strengthen the Ameri-can health care system – not raise costs and kick 23 million Americans off their plans. The people of Youngstown expect results. I’m waiting.”

County Democratic Party Chairman David Betras also criticized the president.

“I assume he’s coming to cut the ribbon for the new steel mill he promised or perhaps it’s to roll out his great new health care plan, or maybe he’s going to an-nounce that he’s going to move production of all the Trump-branded goods that are made overseas by cheap and slave labor to the Valley,” Betras said.

Youngstown Mayor John A. McNally, a Democrat, said:

“We look forward to having President Trump at the Cov-elli Centre, and we know that his supporters will be thrilled to watch his visit and hear him speak.”

Trump put Youngstown in the national spotlight June 1 when discussing his decision to pull the United States from the Paris climate agreement.

“ I t i s t i m e t o p u t Youngstown, Ohio; Detroit, Mich.; and Pittsburgh, Pa., along with many, many other locations within our great country, before Paris, France,” he said.

Trump campaigned in the area three times last year during the 2016 presidential campaign: March 14, the day before the Republican primary at Winner Aviation; Aug. 15 for a policy speech on immigration at Youngstown

State University; and Sept. 5 for a brief stop at the Canfi eld Fair.

Trump lost Mahoning County in last year’s election to Hillary Clinton 49.9 per-cent to 46.6 percent, the best showing for a Republican in the Democratic stronghold since Richard Nixon’s victory in 1972. Trump became the fi rst Republican to win Trum-bull County since Nixon in 1972, capturing 50.7 percent of the vote to 44.5 percent for Clinton, a Democrat.

Trump was supposed to be at Youngstown-Warren Re-gional Airport on Feb. 16 to sign a bill coal supporters say would help the industry. In-stead, the event was canceled and the ceremony took place in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. While there was never an offi cial reason

given for the cancellation, it was reported that some law-makers who wanted to be at the event needed to be in Washington, D.C.

This will be the fi rst time a sitting president has visited the Mahoning Valley since Democrat Barack Obama campaigned for re-election July 6, 2012, at Dobbins El-ementary School in Poland.

Obama was supposed to campaign with then-Vice President Joe Biden on Oct. 29, 2012 – in a bit of irony – at the Covelli Centre, shortly before that year’s presiden-tial election. But Obama can-celed because of a hurricane that caused devastation in New Jersey. Instead, Biden had a rally at the center with former President Bill Clin-ton.

The joint learning experi-ence was part of O’Mansky’s four-week summer archaeo-logical fi eldwork course.

This year’s iteration of the course centered on the Southern Park Stables near Washington Boulevard and Tod Avenue.

While most of the col-lege students dug test pits – a square hole used as a gauge for determining the likelihood of artifacts in a particular area – a pair of student volunteers joined Tom Delvaux, a YSU adjunct archaeology instructor, to help instruct the Scouts in digging pits of their own.

After teaching the Scouts to mark the perimeter of the pits with string, Delvaux taught the group of 15 how to begin their excavations using a pick ax.

“Tom does great work,” O’Mansky said. “On top of being a great teacher, he’s always involved in commu-nity outreach like this.”

Last month, Delvaux and a handful of YSU students led an archaeological dig for a group of elementary-school students at Boardman Park’s Adventure Day Camp.

The Boy Scouts’ archaeo-logical excursion isn’t just an interesting way to pass a summer day, at least not in the mind of the troop’s

leader, Rick Wolf.“The best thing about

days like today is that the kids get to actually try out a new skill or a new activ-ity and see for themselves if they’re interested,” Wolf said. “When they get hands-on experience, they can re-ally get a feel for how things work.”

Under the tutelage of YSU graduate student Adam O’Leary, the Scouts meticu-lously removed layers of dirt from the pit, scooping them out with a metal dustpan.

One of t he Scouts at O’Leary’s pit, Corey Cook, 13, of Va l ley Christ ia n School, had more than a passing interest in the sci-ence of man’s material past.

“I wanted to do this be-cause I’m interested in be-coming an archaeologist,” he said. “I liked what we did today. I liked learning how they actually do the digs.”

O’Mansky’s students un-covered a horseshoe from the days of the stable’s oper-ation and a piece of worked fl int – similar to an arrow-

head – from a yet undeter-mined time period.

Though the Scouts didn’t find any artifacts of their own during their outing, Wolf was confi dent the boys took plenty away from the dig.

“These guys are from a bunch of different schools. They’re out here socializ-ing, laughing, getting their hands dirty,” Wolf said. “Even if they never do any-thing with archaeology, they’ll always remember days like today.”

“ I r e m e m b e r b e i n g scared,” he testifi ed about t he moment he recov-ered his senses near the state park. “I was not sure what the explosion was. I remember wanting to get home.”

In his opening state-ment, defense attorney John Juhasz said Dr. Yu-rich believed he hit a rock and sped home because he was worried his boat might sink.

Under cross-examina-tion, Dr. Yurich told the prosecution he did not mention an explosion to Lt. Gregory Johnson, chief of detectives for the Por-tage County Sheriff’s De-partment, the night of the crash.

Dr. Yurich also testified t hat he consumed t wo beers and two shots at a restaurant an hour or two before the accident. He also said he started, but did not fi nish, a beer at his friend’s campsite before leaving just before the crash.

Previous testimony had established that Dr. Yurich consumed just two beers and one shot.

The shots were “litt le beers,” which consist of Li-cor 43 and heavy whipping cream. Licor 43 is 31 per-cent alcohol-by-volume.

A friend had offered to drive Dr. Yurich home, but he maintained this was be-cause he would have gotten home quicker and not be-cause he was impaired.

Dr. Yurich also acknowl-edged that he did not ob-serve the reservoir’s night-time speed limit of 10 mph.

In closing arguments, prosecuting attorney Dawn Cantalamessa argued that Dr. Yurich’s actions prove he was impaired, but de-fense attorney Lynn Maro said the evidence presented by the prosecution does not meet the reasonable-doubt standard.

“The state has not proven impairment,” Maro said.

“And the objective ev i-dence you have shows he was not.”

Multiple witnesses testi-fi ed that Dr. Yurich was not showing obvious signs of impairment.

Maro also claimed the lights on the fishing boat carrying Neal Cuppett, 58, of Akron, who died in the crash, were either off or not visible at the time of the crash.

Cantalamessa claimed D r . Y u r i c h k n e w h e “screwed up” after the boat crash and he “ran away.”

“Even [witness] Dustin Seese said, ‘Hey, that guy’s going to kill somebody,’” Cantalamessa said. “Little did he know he already did.”

The prosecutor charged Dr. Yurich with aggravated vehicular homicide, ag-gravated vehicular assault, operating a vehicle while

intoxicated and failure to stop after an accident.

The indictment specifi es that aggravated vehicular homicide and aggravated vehicular assault fall under the portion of the statute that specifies the person responsible was u nder the infl uence of alcohol or drugs.

C a nt a la me s s a a ske d Judge Durkin to consider the recklessness portion of the statute as a lesser in-cluded charge if the court cannot f ind Dr. Yurich guilty of operating his boat while intoxicated.

Maro argued that reck-lessness is not a lesser in-cluded charge, and the prosecution had the obli-gation to present its case before a grand jury to have Dr. Yurich indicted under the recklessness specifi ca-tion.

Judge Durkin said he will

review the relevant case law and make a decision as to whether recklessness is a lesser included charge be-fore entering deliberation and reaching a verdict.

If under the infl uence of drugs or alcohol, aggra-vated vehicular homicide is a second-degree felony with a mandatory sentence of two to eight years and aggravated vehicular as-sault is a third-degree felo-ny with a sentence of nine months to three years.

If reckless, aggravated ve-hicular homicide is a third-degree felony with a sen-tence of one to three years and aggravated vehicular assault is a fourth-degree felony with a sentence of six to 18 months.

Operating a vehicle while intoxicated and failure to stop after an accident are first-degree misdemean-ors.

made an arrest, but they expect surveillance cam-eras installed at the courts to help solve the crime.

Pastor Johnson was one of the partners who worked with TMHA to build the basketball courts a couple months ago and to build a baseball field last year. Construction on a new playground will begin this week, he said.

“All you can do is take note of the trends and ad-dress it,” he said. Late Mon-day, after learning about the shooting, Johnson used Facebook to invite men, especially black men from Warren, to attend the weekly Ignite ministry out-reach Tuesday night.

He said the purpose was to “come out and talk to these kids, show them that you care about them with your presence, tell them that this is unacceptable, and commit to having a consistent impact in our neighborhoods.”

The pastor said he would like to meet with the vic-tim of the shooting as well as the person who did the shooting to see if he can help them resolve their dif-ferences.

Warren police say High-land Terrace has not been a hot spot for violence in recent years, but the city experienced a lot of shoot-ings last weekend.

Warren police Detec-tive Wayne Mackey said he senses that the confl icts in-volve young people react-ing impulsively with a gun to what he would consider minor issues.

“They’re thinking about the moment, not about what they are going to be doing in two weeks,” Mack-ey said.

In addition to Monday night’s shooting, fi ve other people were hit by gunfi re in four other incidents be-tween Friday and Sunday.

All of the victims were in their teens or 20s, and police believe that in most cases, the victims knew their assailants.

ary practice.In 2016-17, students

missed 4,324 days due to a disciplinary practice – a 42 percent decrease.

But the numbers reveal fewer students are enrolled for the upcoming school year, and test scores are falling.

Enrollment is predicted to drop in 2017-18, from 5,251 students to 5,123, according to the Ohio De-partment of Education data, which is a 2.5 percent decrease from 2016-17.

Also, there was a 0.66 per-cent attendance decrease, from 90.97 percent atten-dance in 2016 to 90.31 per-cent attendance in 2017.

In addition to attendance and enrollment decreases, test scores also decreased.

For grades 3-8, math scores decreased 2 percent from 29 percent at or above grade level to 27 percent.

English Language Arts test resu lts for t hird- through eighth-graders, however, improved 3 per-cent from 23 percent of stu-dents scoring at or above grade level to 26 percent.

For Chaney High stu-dents, assessment test re-sults went down 3 percent from 35 percent of students scoring at or above level to 32 percent.

East Hig h st udents’ scores also showed a 2 per-cent decrease from 8 per-cent of students scoring at or above level to 6 percent.

The sharp difference be-tween at or above-level stu-dents at Chaney and East – which has more than 90 percent of East students be-

low level – bothers Mohip.“Its not OK to take the

highest-achieving students and put them in one school and put everyone else in the other,” he said. “The re-confi guration is working to fi x that.”

The reconfi guration will place students in schools closer to their homes rather than haphazard placement, Mohip said.

Despite the drop in test scores, the average high-school grade-point average increased by 0.19 points, from 2.26 measured in 2016 to 2.45 measured in 2017.

But Benyo is ready to see more.

“I feel there needs to be more connectedness be-tween some things laid out within [Mohip’s] stra-tegic plan and actions be-ing taken,” he said. “I’d like to connect the dots more. I predict we will see more and more moving into next year.”

Some of the next steps in Mohip’s plan include having more community meetings, putting newslet-ters on the district website, creating a parent resource room, increasing partici-pation in PRIDE – Parents Realizing Involvement De-termines Education – and initiating a review process for individualized educa-tional plans.

In add it ion, Ty rone Olverson, chief academic officer, said the district is still looking for about 55 teachers – 10 for math and science and a number for various subjects including physical education, music, drama, STEM and foreign language.

TOLEDOEnvironmental groups are

suing the U.S. Environmen-tal Protection Agency over its decision not to declare Ohio’s western end of Lake Erie impaired by toxic algae.

The lawsuit filed in To-ledo on Tuesday says the lake should be designated as an impaired watershed because the algae blooms are preventing the lake’s waters from meeting basic quality standards.

The algae blooms in the shallowest of the Great Lakes have fouled drink-ing water in recent years and are a threat to fi sh and wildlife. Ohio regulators have resisted calls to desig-nate its portion of the lake an impaired watershed.

Environmental groups were upset after the EPA announced in May that it wouldn’t make the desig-nation and pave the way for increased pollution regula-tions.

LIBERTY TOWNSHIP - Michael J. Daroski, 58, passed away unex-pectedly Saturday morning, July 15, 2017. He suffered an apparent heart attack while fishing on Lake Erie, and died doing what he loved.

Michael was born July 6, 1959, in Youngstown, a son of the late Richard and Linda Speicher Daros-ki, and was a lifelong resident of the Mahoning Valley.

He was a graduate of Liberty High School, and earned a Bache-lor’s Degree in Education from Youngstown State University. Mike worked for Arconic (formerly RTI) in Niles, for Vallourec Star in Girard, and owned and operated a catering business, doing lunch specials and delivering food to lo-cal offices and businesses.

In his younger years, Mike was a school teacher in Trumbull County, and he coached athletics at the varsity, junior varsity, and recreational levels, and was affec-tionately called “Coach D” by his players. He also served as Athletic Director and a coach at St. Patrick School in Hubbard for a short time.

Ralph was born May 29, 1930, in Youngstown, to Andrew and Mary (Bunofsky) Chuey.

He graduated from Struthers High School in 1948, and was promptly drafted into the U.S. Ar-my, where he proudly served his country in the Panama Canal zone during the Korean conflict. Shortly thereafter, he began a 40-plus-year career driving a local deliv-ery truck for Wonder Bread and Hostess Cake.

Nobody who knew him would deny that Ralph was a go-getter. Once at a party, he stole his bud-dy’s good-looking date, Miss Co-lette Martin. They were wed on Oct. 7, 1967. Their beautiful life to-gether brought them two daugh-ters who were the lights of his life. He worked tirelessly to pro-vide for them and set an amazing example of hard work and dedica-tion.

Ralph formerly served as a zoning inspector for the city of Girard. He was a true patriot who belonged to both the American Legion and the V.F.W., as well as having served as a democratic precinct committeeman. He was politically active and was involved in many local campaigns through-out the years.

In his spare time, Ralph en-joyed gardening, collecting anti-ques, complaining, Youngstown State University football, anything related to Cleveland sports, cheering for whatever team his son-in-law, Pat was currently coaching, and watching John Wayne movies with a fresh box of cheese crackers and a cold beer. He was a true Civil War buff and spent his most enjoyable hours dressing in costume and teaching others about the Civil War, partic-ularly Ulysses S. Grant. He espe-cially enjoyed taking part in the school tours at the Girard Histori-

cal Society Barnhisel House Muse-um, where he also played an in-strumental role in the museum’s restoration.

Those who will carry on his leg-acy include his loving wife of al-most 50 years; his daughter, Erin (Pat) Meyer of Huntington Beach, Calif., and his daughter, Shawna Chuey and Quentin Miles of Wash-ington, D.C.; three grandchildren, Chris, Emma, and Sophia; his brother, Tom (Pat) Chuey of Po-land; and many nieces and neph-ews.

The family would especially like to thank Dan Hromyak and Leslie “Dani” Diana for their support and devotion to their “Uncle Ralph.”

Funeral services will be held on Friday, July 21, at 11 a.m. at the Blackstone Funeral Home in Gir-ard.

The family will receive relatives and friends on Thursday, July 20, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the funeral home.

“Together Again”

By JOE [email protected]

YOUNGSTOWNJudge R. Scott Krichbaum

said a plea agreement was appropriate for a four-year prison term for a woman who claimed to have a bomb when she robbed a downtown bank.

The sentence was given in Mahoning County Com-mon Pleas Court to Marion Edwards, 29, who is home-less, who pleaded guilty to a felony robbery charge.

Edwards was accused of robbing the Home Sav-ings and Loan Co. branch on West Federal Street in March by going inside and handing a note to a teller saying she had a bomb.

She then walked to the nearby Western Reserve Transit Authority bus sta-tion, took a bus to the Mc-Donald’s restaurant on Fifth Avenue, changed clothes there and then went to a friend’s home, where she was arrested by police a couple of days later.

Edwards did not have a bomb.

Terry Grenga, Edwards’

l a w y e r , asked t he j u d g e t o follow the agreement. She said her client had never been in trouble before, has mental-health problems and was not taking her medication the day of the robbery.

Edwards apologized and said she wanted to spend her time in prison to con-centrate on improving her-self.

“I want to get therapy and take my medicine to make sure nothing like this ever happens again,” Edwards said.

A bank representative was in court but declined to speak.

Judge Krichbaum said a penalty is necessary when-ever someone robs a bank and infl icts emotional trau-ma on the employees there. But he also said the reports in Edwards’ file bear out that she has a mental ill-ness, and he thinks the sentence is a fair one.

T H E P E O P L E ’ S PA P E R � Founded June 1869

EARLY REVIEWS OF THE OHIONational Guard’s attack on urban blight in Youngstown are in, and most of them are nothing short

of blockbuster.House by house and block by block,

about 40 members of the 1192nd Engi-neer Co. of Ravenna have come to the aid of the city with crushing force. In well-coordinated maneuvers that began July 10 and that will end Saturday, some of our state’s fi nest citizen soldiers are expected to demolish 28 homes in the vicinity of Hudson and Sheridan avenues on the South Side.

Their work is making a tangible con-tribution to the yeoman’s job of clear-ing thousands of abandoned, decay-ing, unsafe and unhealthy structures in Youngstown. For that progress, we issue a thanks and a plea to offi cials at the U.S. Department of Defense.

First, we thank them for approving this summer’s most productive two-week deployment. Second, we urge them to authorize a much longer deployment in 2018 to clear ten times as many blighted structures, as city leaders envision.

This summer’s short-term experimen-tal mission, however, proved long enough to shed light on the arsenal of strategic gains the mission is accomplishing.

First, in sheer dollars and sense, the guardsmen’s volunteer work is saving the cash-strapped city an estimated $159,000 in demolition costs, according to Abigail Beniston, housing code enforcement and blight remediation superintendent for Youngstown. Those saved dollars can be allocated to razing other dilapidated buildings or toward other critical munici-pal needs.

Second, the inner-city deployment pro-vides a viable and productive training ground for members of the Ravenna-based company of the Army National Guard. That unit specializes in the skill-ful use of heavy machinery, and few ma-chines are more hulking than the impos-ing bulldozers, cranes and excavators used in razing decrepit homes.

The talents unit members hone in Youngstown then could be applied to a military scenario, where skillful struc-ture demolitions can prove life-saving on the battlefi eld by denying shelter and supplies to enemy forces.

The well-deserved appreciation and compliments from neighbors also en-hance the overall public perception of the guard, in particular, and the American military, in general.

PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETYPerhaps the greatest benefi t of the de-

ployment though lies in strengthening overall public health and safety in the city – and doing so relatively rapidly. Be-cause of its activation by the Depart-ment of Defense, the guard unit can work more quickly, unencumbered by some of the bureaucratic red tape that slows down traditional demolitions. As a result, the benefits of blight clearance can be expedited.

One of those benefi ts for Youngstown has been the stark reduction in vacant-home fi res. The city witnessed a 35 per-cent decline in 2016, a trend that Fire Chief John O’Neill attributes in part to success in taking down 571 vacant struc-tures last year.

Fewer vacant structures also mean fewer opportunities for abandoned hous-ing to become breeding grounds for illicit drug and other criminal shenanigans.

As Guard Lt. Mike Huggins put it Mon-day, “It’s nice to partner with Youngstown and help to beautify the city. This work reduces violence because we’re remov-ing houses that aren’t safe. There’s lots of kids in these neighborhoods. ... We’re here to make sure we are taking care of the community.”

The guard deployment also comple-ments other creative projects to take care of Youngstown neighborhoods by mak-ing dents in the massive stockpile of de-caying and nuisance properties.

Last summer, for example, volunteers from the 910th Civil Engineer Squadron, based out of the Youngstown Air Reserve Station in Vienna, helped the city street department take down about 80 houses on the South Side.

Those and other efforts add up. Since 2010, the city has successfully demolished more than 3,000 aging, vacant structures, with more than 1,000 coming down in 2016 and 2017 alone.

Clearly, however, with estimates of vacant structures needing torn down still hovering around 2,500, the momentum must continue. That means more work and more creative strategies loom large.

The National Guard experiment this month, however, shines as a great success. We therefore strongly urge the U.S. Defense Department to build upon that success with a larger and longer-lasting deployment to city neighborhoods next year.

Political memories are short, but they shouldn’t be this short. Amid all the outrage about Donald Trump Jr.’s willingness a year ago to fi nd out what dirt the Russian government may have had on Hillary Clinton, it’s worth remembering his father’s press conference on July 27, 2016.

“I will tell you this, Russia: If you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,” Trump told reporters in Florida. He was talking about Clinton’s emails from her time as secretary of state that she had reportedly failed to turn over to the gov-ernment. “Let’s see if that hap-pens. That’ll be next.” Trump also made it clear that he con-sidered any foreign meddling in the election a sign of disrespect for the Obama administration.

Trump’s opponents were as indignant then as they are today. “This has to be the fi rst time that a major presidential candidate has actively encour-aged a foreign power to conduct espionage against his political opponent,” said Jake Sullivan, policy adviser to Hillary for America. Former CIA Direc-tor Leon Panetta said Trump’s comments were “beyond the pale” because he was “ask-ing the Russians to engage in American politics.”

NO SCRUPLESThe U.S. public has known for

a year that Trump would have no scruples about using the spoils of Russian spying against Clinton. (He tweeted later that he’d encourage the Russians to turn over any Clinton emails to the Federal Bureau of Inves-tigation, but that was just an attempt to divert the criticism).

So the public hasn’t found out much that is new from the decision of Donald Trump Jr. to take a meeting with a Rus-sian law yer who had been described to him in an email as a Russian government rep-resentative bearing anti-Clin-ton gifts for his father. In the summer of 2016, with Trump behind in the polls, the fam-ily would have accepted that kind of help from the devil him-self, not just Russian President Vladimir Putin. The candi-date wasn’t making much of a

secret about it. Moreover, he expressed willingness to accept Russian intelligence as a cam-paign tool after the Democratic National Committee hack was reported. President Obama and Clinton made clear they would treat this as a national securitybreach rather than another part of winning the race for the White House. Trump made no such distinctions.

Almost all the Trump sup-porters I ta lked to at ra l-lies across the U.S. last year explained their preference by praising Trump’s perceived frankness. “He tells it like it is,” I heard again and again. In this case, too, he unasham-edly spoke his mind, doing just what his voters admired. Many of them liked Putin more than Clinton, too, so accepting his help against her didn’t look all that un-American to them.

FATHER AND SONThanks to those people,

Trump is now the president. It’s only natural that his only comment on his son’s decision to publish what many saw as incriminating emails – and still more saw as a gigantic lapse in judgment – was to praise his openness and transparency. It was another way to protect his brand’s strongest selling point to his base.

I fi nd a different aspect of the Russian lawyer episode more intriguing than Donald Trump Jr.’s w il l ingness to accept Russian help.

It’s probably safe to say that lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya delivered no such help – not because both Trump Jr. and Veselnitskaya say so, but because the Trump campaign never revealed any kompromat, to use a Russian word, on Clin-ton’s ties with Russia. Music promoter Rob Goldstone, who arranged the meeting, emailed the candidate’s son that this is what Veselnitskaya would bring, but he was clearly wrong, intentionally or not.

It probably wouldn’t have been hard for the Kremlin to use Trump’s Russian business partners – such as the Agalarov family, involved in arranging the Veselnitskaya meeting – to pass on information. It missed the opportunity, however. Months into the investigation of Russian election meddling, no

information has come to light suggesting that Russia actu-ally provided any ammunition to the Trump campaign, even though we know the Trumps would have welcomed it and a Republican operative, Peter W. Smith, also tried to solicit it, perhaps acting on the cam-paign’s behalf.

It takes two to collude. The Trumps and other people on their side were ready to dance. But the partner, apparently, was a no-show. At most – and that is still not proved – the Russian government provided the spoils of several hacks to Wikileaks, not to the Trump campaign.

KREMLIN’S PREDICTABILITYIf it’s true that the Kremlin

did not want to collude with the Trump camp – and it certainly looks that way – its possible rea-sons are the most interesting part of the story. An obvious ex-planation that comes to mind is that Putin didn’t believe in his ultimate victory and so didn’t want be caught helping him because of possible retali-ation from President Clinton. The only thing for Putin to like about Trump is the chaos he can cause with his overconfi-dent novice’s ways, but it can also be a threat. The Kremlin ultimately likes predictability and is itself predictable.

Another possible explana-tion is that Putin’s U.S. experts thought helping Trump di-rectly could have harmed his campaign. Where Trump was openly careless, the Russians are crafty enough to anticipate the political fallout. Wikileaks damaged Clinton without di-rectly involving Trump in the dirty business of hacking and colluding.

This, of course, is only guess-work. Yet I wouldn’t completely give up hope that we’ll know one day. Putin waited a year before he revealed the details of his planning for the 2014 Crimea annexation. Perhaps a moment will come when he feels free to talk about the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign in a similar way, and we’ll be able to piece together the story of the Kremlin’s hopes and fears for that race.Leonid Bershidsky is a Bloomberg View colum-nist.

Americans are fond of rankings. We even rank our presidents. An inter-net search reveals dozens of presidential rankings by historians and news orga-nizations. The details vary, but in general they confi rm what we probably expect: great presidents such as George Washington, Abra-ham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson are always near the top; the not-so-great such as Andrew Johnson, James Buchanan and War-ren G. Harding are always near the bottom.

It may seem unfair to hold our president of a half-year, Donald Trump, up against the mirror of our previous 44, but eventually we will place him somewhere on the list. And Trump himself hasn’t been shy about com-paring himself to previous presidents, even to some of our most prominent.

During a Cabinet meeting June 12, for example, Trump said: “Never has there been a president, with few excep-tions – case of FDR, he had a major depression to handle –Trump who has passed more legislation and who has done more things than what we’ve done.” (This isn’t true, by the way.)

And on Feb. 18, Trump situated himself in the good company of Jefferson, Lincoln and “many of our greatest presidents,” who, like himself, he says, clashed with the media and called them out as liars.

So I don’t think that Trump will shy away from comparisons with presi-dents of the past. Let’s con-sider one of the greatest:

The July 4th celebration happened to coincide with my reading of Ron Cher-now’s “Washington: A Life,” prompting this only-semi-facetious question: Why can’t our current president, Trump, be more like our fi rst, Washington?

IMPRESSIVE MANWa sh i ng ton had h i s

faults, but he was an impres-sive man, essential to the American Revolution and the founding of our nation. Nevertheless, as he faced the formidable tasks of winning the war and creating a new government, he expressed a surprising amount of self-doubt and uncertainty about his ability to live up to the challenges.

When Washington was given command of the Con-tinental Army, for example, he offered this self-effacing disclaimer: “I beg it may be remember(e)d by every Gent(lema)n in the room that I this day declare, with the utmost sincerity, I do not think myself equal to the command I (am) hon-oured with.”

W h e n W a s h i n g t o n became our nation’s first president, he said: “While I realize the arduous nature of the task which is con-ferred on me and feel my in-ability to perform it, I wish there may not be reason for regretting the choice.”

W h i le t here may be more to these expressions of modesty than meets the eye, there’s little reason to believe that they aren’t ba sic a l ly si ncere. But they’re in jolting contrast to the attitude of the current occupant of t he W hite House, who said, at the Republican national con-vention, “I alone can fi x it.”

Although few of our presi-dents can withstand compar-ison with our greatest, think-ing about Trump in terms of Washington is worthwhile. At this stage in his life, Trump is unlikely to develop the hu-mility and self-sacrifi ce of our fi rst president, nor to experi-ence the kind of uncertainty and doubt that precedes wis-dom.

Still, as we evaluate our current president, the fact that he is unlikely to change shouldn’t keep us from re-membering what true presi-dential greatness looks like.John M.

NAFTA objectivesWASHINGTON

U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of Howland, D-13th, voiced his criticism Tuesday in a news release regarding the Trump administration’s new North American Free Trade Agree-ment renegotiation objec-tives released Monday.

Under the 2015 Fast Track law, the administration must publish “a detailed and com-prehensive summary” of its specifi c negotiating objec-tives 30 days before formal-ly beginning trade talks.

“The Trump administra-tion’s newly released NAFTA renegotiation objectives are fi lled with vague overtures making it unclear what will be demanded on key issues, whether improvements for working people could be in the offi ng.

“There is consensus that NAFTA needs to change to level the playing fi eld for U.S. workers, but I am greatly concerned that in this im-portant undertaking, the president, by his own objec-tives, is not qualifi ed to get a deal worthy of American families.”

MIAMIA 10-year-old boy from a

drug-ridden Miami neigh-borhood apparently died of a fentanyl overdose last month, becoming one of Florida’s littlest victims of the opioid crisis, authori-ties said Tuesday. But how he came into contact with the powerful painkiller is a mystery.

Fifth-grader Alton Banks died June 23 after a visit to the pool in the city’s Over-

town section. He began vomiting at home, was found unconscious that even i ng a nd wa s pro-nounced dead at a hospital. Preliminary toxicology tests showed he had fentanyl in his system, authorities said.

“We don’t believe he got it at his home,” Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said. “It could be as simple as touch-ing it. It could have been a towel at the pool.”

She added: “We just don’t

know.”The case has underscored

how frighteningly prevalent fentanyl has become – and how potent it is. Exposure to just tiny amounts can be devastating.

Investigators said Alton may been exposed to the drug on his walk home in Overtown, a poor, high-crime neighborhood where Assistant Miami Fire Chief Pete Gomez said he has seen a spike in overdoses in the past year and where needles

sometimes litter the streets. “There is an epidemic,”

Gomez said. “Overtown seems to have the highest percentage of where these incidents are occurring.”

The three-block walk between the pool and Al-ton’s home took him down streets that appeared rela-tively clean Tuesday, but on the block in the other direc-tion from his home, trash littered the pavement and empty lots. Homeless peo-ple slept in the shade of an

Interstate 95 overpass.Detectives are still try-

ing to piece together the boy’s final day. Rundle ap-pealed to the public for information.

The boy’s mother, Shan-tell Banks, was informed of the preliminary find-ings last week. A distraught Banks told The Miami Her-ald that her son was a “fun kid” who wanted to become an engineer and loved the NFL’s Carolina Panthers, es-pecially Cam Newton.

CINCINNATI A white police offi cer who

fatally shot an unarmed black motorist during a Cin-cinnati traffic stop won’t face a third murder trial, a prosecutor announced Tuesday while saying he’s asking federal authorities to consider possible civil-rights charges.

Hamilton County Pros-ecutor Joe Deters said he’s dropping the case against Ray Tensing, 27, on the eve of the two-year anniversa-ry of the death of Sam Du-Bose, 43. Two previous juries couldn’t reach a unanimous agreement on murder and voluntary manslaughter charges against the former University of Cincinnati of-fi cer.

“I feel badly,” said Deters, who said he concluded he wouldn’t be able to get a jury to convict Tensing. “I’ve got to do what I think is right.”

Tensing’s attorney said De-ters made the right decision because jurors he talked to after the second trial all said they felt there would “never be a unanimous decision” reached in the case.

“The system worked ex-actly as it’s designed to work,” Mathews said. “We tried it with two separate ju-ries, and neither one could come to a unanimous deci-sion, and that’s our justice system working.”

D e t e r s a g r e e d w i t h Mathews that the U.S. jus-tice system is “the best sys-tem in the world,” but added:

“It’s imperfect.” He referred to outrage

among some people over football star O.J. Simpson’s 1995 acquittal in Los Angeles on murder charges.

“The division in this coun-try is profound,” Deters said. “I mean, look at the O.J. Simpson case; people were like ‘What? Not guilty?’ OK? This goes both ways, hard.”

MINNEAPOLIS An Australian woman

who called 911 to report a possible assault was shot and killed by a Minneapo-lis police officer after the offi cers heard a loud sound near their squad car, ac-cording to information released Tuesday by Min-nesota investigators.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said Justine Damond, 40, whose maiden name is Jus-tine Ruszczyk, approached the driver’s side window of the squad car immediately after the driver had been startled by the sound. The offi cer in the passenger seat, Mohamed Noor, fired his weapon, hitting Damond through the open driver’s side window, the BCA said.

The BCA said its informa-tion was based on an inter-view with the offi cer driving the car, Officer Matthew Harrity. Harrity was inter-viewed Tuesday, but Noor declined to be interviewed. The BCA said his attorney did not indicate when, or if, Noor would talk to in-vestigators, and under the law an interview can’t be compelled.

Harrity and Noor are on paid administrative leave. Harrity has been with the Minneapolis police depart-ment for one year, and Noor has been with the depart-ment for nearly two.

The information released Tuesday is the fi rst narrative by the BCA since Saturday night’s shooting. According to the BCA, Harrity told in-vestigators that he and Noor

responded to a 911 call from Damond about a possible assault near her home at about 11:30 p.m. Saturday.

Harrity was driving the squad car as the officers went through an alley to look for a suspect. The squad lights were off.

Harrity told agents he was startled by a loud sound near the cruiser, and imme-diately afterward, Damond approached the driver’s side window. Harrity told agents that Noor fi red his weapon through the open driver’s side window.

No weapon was found at the scene. The officers did not turn on their body cam-eras until after the shooting, and the squad car camera was also not activated.

WASHINGTON President Donald Trump

had another, previously undisclosed conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin at a summit in Germany this month.

White House spokesman Sean Spicer and National Security Council spokes-man Michael Anton con-firmed that Trump and Putin spoke at a dinner for world leaders and their spouses at the Group of 20 summit in Hamburg, Germany.

The conversation came hours after Trump and Putin’s first official face-to-face meeting on July 7, which was originally scheduled to last just half an hour but stretched on for more than two. The two world leaders were also captured on video shak-ing hands and exchanging a few words after they ar-rived at the G-20 summit of industrialized and devel-oping nations earlier that day.

Anton would not specify the duration of the con-versation. But he said the discussion was casual and should not be character-

ized as a “meeting” or even a less formal, but official, “pull-aside.”

“A conversation over dessert should not be char-acterized as a meeting,” he said.

The dinner, hosted by German Chancellor An-gela Merkel, was open only to world leaders and their spouses, as well as one translator per couple, ac-cording to a senior White House official who de-scribed the event on condi-tion of anonymity despite the president’s criticism of unnamed sources.

The offi cial stressed that Trump spoke with many leaders over the course of the dinner and said he spoke briefly with Putin, who was seated next to first lady Melania Trump, as the event was conclud-ing. Trump spoke with Putin using Russia’s trans-lator, since the American translator did not speak Russian.

Trump defended the dinner in a pair of angry tweets late Tuesday that noted the dinner had been on his public schedule.

Canfield High School wrestling has reached its highest highs in the past few years under head coach Dean Conley, but coming this winter, it’s someone else’s job to take the Cardi-nals even higher.

After back-to-back years of state runner-up finishes in team play and of having an individual state champion, Conley stepped down. The 18-year head coach makes

way for Stephen Pitts. a for-mer Cardinals wrestler and assistant coach with the team for the past six years.

“It may seem daunting, but

it’s something that I think I’m ready for and it’s some-thing we’ve talked about for the last two years,” Pitts said. “I’m excited about it and I’m

ready to go.”Conley — who remains a

teacher at Canfi eld — said he had been thinking of leaving for the past few years. His daughter, Alex, is already competing in state and na-tional golf tournaments at the age of 8 and he wants to spend more time with her as she goes through her athletic career.

SOUTHPORT, ENGLANDWith a chance to close

out the match, Jordan Spi-eth fired his second shot into the par-5 15th at Royal Birkdale and it never left the fl ag, bounding onto the green about 20 feet behind the hole.

His partner Tuesday was Justin Thomas, who watched the fl ight of the ball and said, “I like having him on my

team when he’s playing like this.”

Ever yone is on their ow n when the Brit ish Open begins on Thursday, and Spieth is

looking sharp enough to be listed as a co-favorite with Dustin Johnson, the No. 1 player in the world. Spieth is coming off his second vic-tory of the year last month at the Travelers Championship. And when his putter is work-ing — it really hasn’t been this year — he is regarded as a favorite at just about any tournament.

Still to be determined is how much he thrives on links courses like Royal Birkdale.

What stands out is St. Andrews in 2015, when the 23-year-old Texan was going for the third leg of the Grand Slam and missed the play-off by one shot. Even so, he hasn’t fi nished higher than 30th in the other three Brit-ish Opens he has played.

So much of his mystique is built around that 2015 season — the Masters and U.S. Open, fi ve victories, the FedEx Cup. So many of the expectations of Spieth now are measured against that season. Those are rare even for the greatest players, and it might be Spieth’s bad luck that it happened to him so early in his career.

He still wouldn’t trade it.

NILESAfter scoring 11 runs in their win

over the Batavia Muckdogs on Monday, the Scrappers’ offense continued to drive in runs in their 8-3 win on Tues-day night.

The Scrappers jumped out to an ear-ly 1-0 lead after Austen Wade scored on a one-out double to center fi eld by Oscar Gonzalez in the bottom of the fi rst inning.

Ma hon i ng Va l ley added another run in the bottom of the sec-ond after Will Benson hit a leadoff triple to left field and scored on an RBI groundout by third ba sema n Jonat ha n Laureano to increase the lead to 2-0.

“It seemed like some of the guys carried their swings from yes-terday over into today,” Scrappers manager Luke Carlin said. “They looked really comfort-able, aggressive, in the zone for the most part. They found some barrels and they did a great job tonight.”

The Scrappers broke the game open in the bottom of the fourth after scoring three runs due to two errors in the in-ning by Batavia second baseman Sam Castro and left fi elder Matt Brooks.

Laureano drove in his second RBI of the game on a single to left fi eld in the bottom of the fi fth. Scrappers’ fi rst baseman Ulysses Cantu scored from second base to make the lead 6-0.

Batavia capitalized on an error in the top of the seventh inning and strung together two hits to cut the lead to 6-2.

Fitch’s Sutton earns All-America honors

FARGO, N.D.Austintown Fitch junior wres-

tler Gus Sutton became the area’s second wrestler to earn All-American status at the Cadet

Men’s Free-style Nation-als this past weekend.

The Na-tionals at the Fargodome in Fargo, N.D. are considered to

be among the toughest amateur wrestling tournaments in the nation.

Sutton (126) placed sixth at Nationals, making the semifi nals before falling to Fresno Califor-nia’s Ryan Franco. The last Ma-honing Valley wrestler to place and earn All-America honors was Howland graduate and former state champion David-Brian Whisler in 2014.

Cavaliers sign former 2nd-round pick Osman

CLEVELANDThe Cleveland Cavaliers have

signed former second-round pick Cedi Osman.

The Cavaliers announced the move Tuesday. Osman has played the last fi ve seasons for Anadolu Efes in the Turkish Basketball League. He gets a three-year deal worth $8.3 million.

Last season, Osman averaged 13.2 points and 4.1 rebounds in 35 games. In Euroleague play, Osman averaged 7.1 points and 2.8 rebounds. The 6-foot-8 forward is a defensive-minded player who fi gures to give Cleve-land some depth at the end of the bench in the frontcourt. He was acquired in a draft-night trade with the Timberwolves on 2015.

Osman joins Kyle Korver, Jose Calderon and Jeff Green as sign-ings this summer for the Cava-liers, who have made it to three straight NBA Finals.

NBA will ditch home, road uniforms in ’17-18

NEW YORKNBA teams are making a ward-

robe change, with the traditional home and road uniforms going back in the closet.

The league said Tuesday it is eliminating the old apparel desig-nations starting with the 2017-18 season, when Nike becomes the offi cial outfi tter. Instead, there will be four primary uniforms for each team.

The host team will pick which of its uniforms will be worn for each game and the visitors will select one of the contrasting ones from their collection. Previ-ously, white uniforms were the default for home teams.

The fi rst two editions will debut at the start of the season. The “Association” is formerly the home white uniform and the “Icon” is the previous road jersey, featuring the team’s primary color.

The other two primary uni-forms will be revealed in the com-ing months.

Also, eight teams will have a “Classic” uniform available in the fall that they can wear at their discretion.

Nike, which is replacing Adidas, says its uniforms are the NBA’s lightest ever and absorb sweat faster, with changes to the neck, back shoulder and armhole to enhance agility. They were tested by members of last summer’s gold medal-winning U.S. Olympic basketball team.

Matthews wins Stage 16in Tour de France

ROMANS-SUR-ISERE, FRANCEMichael Matthews won a sprint

to the line on Stage 16 of the Tour de France as Britain’s Chris Froome kept the yellow jersey on Tuesday ahead of two diffi cult days in the Alps.

Heavy crosswinds played havoc in the last 30 kilometers of the 165-kilometer (102.5-mile) ride between Le Puy-en-Velay to Romans-en-Isere, causing the peloton to stretch and frequently break into several groups.

Froome and his main rivals — Fabio Aru, Romain Bardet and Rigoberto Uran — managed to stay at the front and crossed the fi nish line together.

Froome, the defending cham-pion, has an 18-second lead over Aru, with Romain Bardet 23 sec-onds back in third place.

Matthews claimed his second stage win in this race, three days after his victory in Rodez, reduc-ing the gap with green jersey holder Marcel Kittel in the best sprinter’s classifi cation.

Associated Press

FRISCO, TEXASDallas Cowboys owner

Jerry Jones said Tuesday the team is still gathering details over Ezekiel Elliott’s involve-ment in an altercation at a Dallas bar, the latest off-fi eld incident for the star running back.

Elliott, who was already facing a potential suspen-sion over the NFL’s investi-gation of a year-old domestic case, was involved in a dis-pute Sunday night that led to a man getting punched in the nose and being taken to a hospital. Dallas police said the 30-year-old man didn’t know who punched him, and the report does not mention Elliott. Dallas police also are investigating the incident.

Jones said he didn’t want to speculate about a possible suspension. An NFL spokes-man said the league is look-ing into the latest incident “to understand the facts.” One of Elliott’s representa-tives didn’t return a mes-

sage seeking comment.

A u t h or i-ties in Co-l u m b u s declined to p r o s e c u t e the former Ohio State

star over a domestic dispute with his ex-girlfriend before Elliott’s fi rst training camp with the Cowboys last year. But the NFL’s investigation continued , and the league hasn’t cleared Elliott.

Elliott also drew unwanted attention last season when he visited a legal marijua-na shop before a preseason game in Seattle. Last spring, he pulled down a woman’s shirt during a St. Patrick’s Day parade.

The 21-year-old Elliott, who led the NFL in rushing as a rookie and helped the Cowboys to the top seed in the NFC playoffs with a 13-3 record, can get suspended without any convictions, although the now-manda-tory six-game ban without pay for a domestic incident

is unlikely without legal in-volvement.

“Because of his style, per-sonality, (he’s) like a rock star wherever he goes in terms of attention,” Jones said. “Cer-tainly Zeke is evolving and being subject to needing to learn how to deal with the media and social media the way it is today.”

Jones said he had dis-cussed Elliott’s latest inci-dent with the running back but declined to provide de-tails. Elliott said during the offseason program that he was going out less while un-derstanding more the scru-tiny he faces. But now he’s had another incident.

“Like all of us, we do good some days and don’t do good the others,” Jones said. “That’s not to be confused with tolerating bad behavior or illegal behavior. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about just learning that your every move will be scrutinized and how in this day and time it will be looked at from many van-tage points.”

Jerry Jones: Cowboysexploring new incident

NFL

Asked to measure his game now compared with two years ago, Spieth said his long game is better, but he hasn’t been making putts. Such is golf.

“I recognize that being fi ve years in now ... and fi ve years doesn’t make me a veteran, but it helps me realize kind of how things go,” he said. “And last year I was pretty caught in 2015. This year I’m not. Hopefully, we can have another one or two like that. But if we keep on trying to improve each part of the game, stick to the process, then we’ll have the results we want.”

Tuesday brought more sunshine to the Lancashire Coast and only a light wind

that came out of a different direction. The course is fast, and balls are bouncing high when landing, which is links golf at its best.

In any conditions, Birkdale is not a course that leads to low scoring, certainly not like what Henrik Stenson had last year at Royal Troon when he set the major cham-pionship record of 264 in his brilliant duel with Phil Mick-elson.

The lowest score ever at Royal Birkdale was 272 by Ian Baker-Finch in 1991.

Spieth still referred to the course as among the fairest he has seen in his limited experience at golf’s oldest championship. And when he looks around the land-scape, he sees more balance of power than ever before.

Just two years ago, Spieth

was considered part of the modern version of a “Big Three” that included Rory McIlroy and Jason Day. And then along came Johnson, rising to No. 1 in the world in February and leaving everyone well behind. But now Johnson hasn’t won since March, slowed by his slip down the stairs at the Masters. McIlroy and Day haven’t won at all.

“The younger generation, you look at how many good players there are,” U.S. Open champion Brooks Koepka said. “You look at how it was at Erin Hills. Everyone up there hadn’t won a major — Rickie (Fowler), Justin (Thomas), Hideki (Matsuy-ama).”

No matter who wins this week, Spieth doesn’t see that changing.

tling. Why do you want to step away now?’ I said it was time to start a new fun and wild ride,” Conley said. “I want to have the same ex-periences with my daughter that I had with these stu-dent-athletes in the last 18 years at Canfi eld.

“I guess I’m starting a new journey in girls golf.”

The state of the team or any particular wrestler had no role to play in his de-parture, Conley said. The team is at a point where it’s always going to have state-ranked wrestlers and Pitts will retain the 10 remaining assistant coaches from the youth through high school

ranks. The latter point made him more comfortable with leaving.

“I w a nted t he lea st amount of disruption with the program. I didn’t want to tell anyone it was my last year because then the sea-son would have been about me,” Conley said. “I didn’t tell the coaches or parents because I had made the de-cision, but it wasn’t fi nal un-til after the season.”

Conley can be awkward about discussing matters concerning himself. He was named the Division II Wres-tling Coach of the Year this past season and admitted he felt uncomfortable about being honored in Columbus because it looked like he was getting too much credit.

Conley’s legacy at Can-

fi eld is the philosophy that anyone has an equal chance to contribute. It’s how he kept fi ve former head coach-es on staff and has one of the deepest rosters in the state. He wasn’t afraid to defer to others and Pitts is a good example of that.

Nearly every recent mar-quee name in Canfield wrestling is in some way connected to Pitts. He cor-nered for the program’s all-time winningest wrestler, Georgio Poullas. He did the same thing for Mason Giordano as he went from a first-time wrestler as a sophomore to a state fi nal-ist and Division I commit as a senior. Pitts coached returning state champion David Crawford in middle school.

He spoke to The Vindi-cator from Ada, where he’s travelling with Crawford, David Reinhart and Ethan Fletcher as they hit the off-season tournament circuit. The time he puts in with the wrestlers allows him to earn their trust and in turn help to deliver stellar per-formances.

“With me, it’s about build-ing relationships,” Pitts said. “There’s a shared suffering a little bit. They put in the time, so I put the time with them. When it’s time for them to complain, I can say ‘I was there too, man.

“It gives me some back-bone and they know I’m there with them. The guys trust me and treat me like family and it has been good.”

Conley hasn’t quite given up on wrestling just yet. He said he’ll help with fund-raising and in smaller ways when he can. Conley’s two state runner-up teams lost to Saint Paris Graham both times. In March, Canfield had 83 points to SPG’s 253. The Falcons have won the last 17 team titles and Con-ley hopes Pitts can be the guy to snap that streak.

“I’m proud of what we’ve built. I think Steve and the rest of the guys will be suc-cessful,” Conley said. “First place in D-II seems so far away — like 100 years away — nothing would make me prouder than to see coach Pitts and the guys hoist that state championship trophy. That would make my career, my life, everything.”

SAN FRANCISCOIn a rare scheduling perk,

t he Cleveland Indians didn’t have to travel far for a much-needed change of scenery after a disappoint-

ing weekend dud at Oak-land.

J u s t a quick jaunt across San

Francisco Bay.Josh Tomlin struck out

five and pitched into the eighth inning to win back-to-back starts for the first time this year, and Cleve-land capitalized on two costly errors to rally and beat the Giants 5-3 on Mon-day night.

Tomlin (6-9) allowed six hits and three runs without walking a batter in 7 1⁄3 in-nings. Cleveland snapped a season-high four-game skid with its fi rst victory against the Giants in the last seven tries.

“It’s good to get back to playing our style of base-ball, and taking advantage of the mistakes is kind of what we’ve done in the past,” Tomlin said. “... That’s

huge for us.”Yan Gomes homered

leading off the third for the Indians.

San Francisco starter Matt Moore (3-10) hit an RBI single in the third before a wild throw did him in, and the Giants dropped their fourth straight home game. Moore became the first Giants starter to lose five straight home starts since Ryan Vogelsong in 2011.

The left-handed Moore scooped up Bradley Zim-mer’s chopper in the fifth and made a wild under-handed throw — he doesn’t ever remember doing that to fi rst before — that sailed well over fill-in first base-man Jae-Gyun Hwang, al-lowing Giovanny Urshela to come home. Zimmer then scored on Michael Brant-ley’s tying single.

Hwang’s throwing error covering Brandon Guyer’s sacrifice bunt in the sixth allowed the go-ahead run by Jose Ramirez, aboard on a leadoff double.

Gorkys Hernandez hit an RBI double in the third for the Giants, who began a season-long 10-game

homestand and play 18 of the next 23 at AT&T Park.

On the play, Joe Panik was initially thrown out at home, but it went to replay review to determine whether Panik’s sliding left leg got beneath the tag by Gomes, the catch-er. The call was overturned in 2 minutes, 13 seconds, and Panik had the tying run on Hernandez’s hit.

Cody Allen finished for his 17th save as Cleveland improved to just 4-11 in in-terleague. A day after Cleve-land’s bullpen was taxed, Tomlin set the tone.

“He just has a way about him,” manager Terry Fran-cona said. “He competes. He always competes.”

HEALTHIER HEARTSLast Thursday after the

All-Star break, Francona re-joined his club in Oakland following a heart ablation procedure. He looked for-ward to saying hello Mon-day to Bochy, who also had the surgery in April to fi x his heart rhythm problems.

“I want to see him. I heard he went through the same thing. I want to say hi to him,” Francona said.

AROUND THE HORNTuesday’s other

MLB gamesAMERICAN LEAGUE

Orioles 12, Rangers 1BALTIMORE

Chris Davis homered in a six-run fi rst inning, added a grand slam in the fourth and fi nished with a career-high six RBIs to help the Baltimore Orioles breeze past the Texas Rangers. The Orioles scored six runs against Tyson Ross (2-2) before making an out, and that was enough to send Bal-timore to its second straight win over Texas following a three-game sweep by the Chicago Cubs. Dylan Bundy (9-8) allowed one run and four hits in six innings to earn his fi rst victory since June 24. Tigers 9, Royals 3

KANSAS CITYNicholas Castellanos homered twice and drove in fi ve runs, Detroit scored fi ve times in the second inning and the Tigers cruised from there to a victory over the Kansas City Royals. Castellanos also tripled to fi nish a double shy of the cycle. Victor Martinez drove in a pair of runs, and the Tigers still managed to give fi ll-in starter Matt Boyd (3-5) plenty of support in his return from the minors. Boyd allowed three runs and seven hits over six innings, striking out three and walking one. Astros 6, Mariners 2

HOUSTON Evan Gattis homered twice to back up a solid start by Brad Pea-cock and help the Houston Astros to a victory over the Seattle Mariners. Gattis hit solo shots in the second and sixth innings off Sam Gaviglio (3-5) for the eighth multihomer game of his career. Peacock (8-1) allowed three hits and one run while fanning nine in seven innings to tie the longest start of his career and earn his fi fth straight win. Luke Gregerson got the last four outs for his fi rst save.Yankees 6, Twins 3

MINNEAPOLIS Bartolo Colon faltered in the fi fth inning after a decent start by the burly 44-year-old, whose Minnesota debut ended with a two-run double by Gary Sanchez that sent the New York Yankees on their way to a victory. Aaron Judge added an RBI single and Didi Gregorius hit a two-run home run off Ryan Pressly in the fi fth after Colon was removed, as the Yankees woke up their slumbering off ense.

NATIONAL LEAGUEPhillies 5, Marlins 2

MIAMI Maikel Franco had three hits, including a tie-breaking home run in the eighth inning, to help lift the Philadelphia Phillies to a victory over the Miami Marlins. Franco’s homer to left fi eld off Dustin McGowan (5-1) was his 14th of the season and it broke a 2-all tie. Nick Williams added a two-run homer in the ninth to cap the scoring. Cameron Perkins drove in two runs for the Phillies and Pat Neshek (3-2) pitched a scoreless seventh for the victory. Hector Neris pitched a perfect ninth for his ninth save in 12 opportunities.Diamondbacks 11, Reds 2

CINCINNATI Chris Herrmann capped a six-run fi fth inning with a two-run homer, and the Arizona Diamondbacks slugged their way past the Cincin-nati. Rey Fuentes added a pinch-hit, three-run shot in the seventh, All-Star outfi elder Jake Lamb had a two-run triple and Arizona ended a fi ve-game skid by tying a season high with nine extra-base hits — one from each spot in the order. The Diamondbacks had four doubles in the fi fth, helping overcome Zack Cozart’s 10th homer of the season. Robbie Ray (9-4) allowed two runs over six innings for Arizona. Cardinals 5, Mets 0

NEW YORK Michael Wacha threw a three-hitter for his fi rst career shutout, Matt Carpenter had four hits, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the New York Mets. Wacha (7-3) has won his last four starts. He struck out eight and walked one in his 99th career start. Wacha and the Cardinals capitalized on a shoddy Mets defense that let down starter Rafael Montero (1-6) with three errors. Montero allowed four runs, two earned, in six innings. New York has lost three straight and eight of 11. The fi rst of Carpenter’s four hits was a fi rst-inning double into the right fi eld corner. He advanced to third on third baseman T.J. Rivera’s throwing error and scored on Jedd Gyorko’s sacrifi ce fl y.

INTERLEAGUEDodgers 1, White Sox 0

CHICAGO Clayton Kershaw pitched seven scoreless innings for his major league-leading 15th victory and the Los Angeles Dodgers edged the Chicago White Sox for their 10th straight victory. Relievers Pedro Baez and Kenley Jansen closed it out. Jansen survived a deep fl y by Matt Davidson to re-cord his 24th save in 24 chances. Chris Taylor had four hits and scored on rookie Cody Bellinger’s single in the fi rst inning.

COACHESContinued from B1

Tomlin gives Tribeboost against Giants

CLEVELAND INDIANS

Muckdogs’ first base-man Ben Fisher and cen-ter fielder Thomas Jones scored on back-to-back RBI groundouts by catcher Da-vid Gauntt and Brooks.

But Wade led off the bot-tom of the eighth with a homerun to right fi eld and Scrappers’ second base-man Samad Taylor scored on a RBI groundout by Can-tu to make the lead 8-2.

Wade fi nished the game 2 for 4 with an RBI and two runs scored.

“He kinda started every-thing tonight, which was nice,” Carlin said. “He did a good job. He’s been swing-ing it well as of late too. He had the day off yesterday and it was nice to see him get back in there today and get it going.”

Batavia added one more run in the top of the ninth but couldn’t get anything

else going.Mahoning Valley start-

ing pitcher Grant Hockin shut down the Muckdogs’ offense early in the game. Hockin pitched fi ve score-less innings and allowed one hit and one walk while striking out three.

“Grant did a great job tonight,” Carlin said. “He kinda mixed early, which was nice. It was important for him to get that break-ing ball over early so that he knew he had it. He did a great job. I think he had four innings last time and four innings the time be-fore that. We kinda built him up today and he had fi ve.”

“Tomorrow’s a new day and it presents new chal-lenges. We have to refocus and that’s kind of the MO here,” Carlin said. “The guys need to stay focused on what they need to be doing and let their actions do it.

SCRAPPERSContinued from B1

helping get victories for our team.”

Pittsburgh’s late surge began in the bottom of the sixth when Francisco Cervelli led off with a home run.

Marte walked with two outs and scored on Josh Harrison’s blast to the seats in right field that tied the game.

David Freese put the Pi-rates ahead later in the in-ning with an RBI single off reliever Oliver Drake (3-3) as Pittsburgh won its third straight to pull within fi ve games of the first-place Brewers.

Ivan Nova (10-6) survived six innings to get the win. Felipe Rivero worked out of a two-on, one-out jam in the ninth for his eighth save as the Pirates drew within two games of .500 (46-48) for the fi rst time since May.

Travis Shaw went 3 for 4, including a three-run homer off Nova in the third but was ejected along with manager Craig Counsell in the eighth for arguing with home plate umpire Mike Muchlinski.

Eric Thames, Hernan Perez and Manny Pina all had two hits each but Mil-waukee left eight runners on while losing its third straight for the first time since early June.

Brewers starter Junior Guerra faced the minimum over his fi rst fi ve innings in his return from a trip to the disabled list with a right shin contusion.

It all unraveled in the sixth. Guerra exited after Harrison put a ball over the 21-foot high Clemente Wall to tie the game.

“It’s the best we’ve seen him this year,” Counsell said of Guerra.

“It’s really something positive to build on. He made some mistakes in the

sixth with his fastball and he got behind.”

Marte spent most of his suspension at Pittsburgh’s minor league complex in Florida, watching the Pi-rates fight to stay on the fringe of the wide-open Central. If there’s any anger at what he called a “care-less” mistake, it didn’t show.

The two-time Gold Glov-er was greeted by applause when he jogged out to his post before the fi rst pitch.

The cheers grew louder when he made a sliding grab on a sinking liner by Milwaukee’s Ryan Braun - who still gets booed at PNC Park four years removed from his own PED suspen-sion - to end the inning.

“That’s the way I play,” Marte said.

“It feels good to be back. I’m healthy, I’m focused. Starting off with a play like that, reminds not only the people but especially me this is where I belong.”

The club’s Saturday night duplicate was well under way when Lucky Larry found himself declaring three no trump on to-day’s deal. Larry ducked East’s 10 of hearts at trick one, thinking it was routine good play. East, however, held most of the miss-ing high cards and he knew that continuing hearts was hopeless -- Larry needed both the ace and the king for his opening bid.

East shifted to the queen of clubs at trick two, won by Larry

with the ace. Larry led a low spade to dummy’s queen, losing to East’s ace, and East continued clubs. Larry won with the king and took the diamond finesse. When that lost, Larry was down one with two club losers and one loser in every other suit.

Hard Luck Louie took a dif-ferent view when he played the hand. He presumed the diamond king was offside -- all of his fi-nesses lost -- so he decided to look elsewhere for some tricks. Louie captured East’s 10 of hearts with the ace at trick one and led the king of spades. East won with the ace and continued with the jack of hearts, ducked this time by Louie. West smartly overtook the jack with the queen and led a spade through dum-my’s queen-10. Louie rose with the queen of spades, crossed to his hand with a high club, and ran the queen of diamonds. The finesse lost, as usual for Louie, but there was nothing for East to do. East exited with the queen of clubs, but Louie had nine tricks.

At long last, Louie had out-played Larry on a hand. Well done, Louie!

SHARON, PA.Every once in a while, we are

gently reminded to count our blessings. Sometimes it comes unexpectedly. Our recent visit to a little strip plaza restaurant with a big heart in Sharon was just such an occasion.

We met with a faith-fi lled man named Joseph Altenor. If you’ve

read any of our m o n t h l y f e a-tures, you know that faith isn’t something we’ve worked into the story. But today, it would be a dis-service to discuss Haitian Sensa-tion, a restaurant and coffee shop at 869 E. State St.,

without broaching the topic.Joseph came to the United

States in 1984 when he was 19. After spending time in manufac-turing in New York City, he was transferred to Sharpsville, Pa.

In 2010 after the earthquake in Haiti, his native homeland, Joseph witnessed a fundraising effort led by the children at Case Avenue El-ementary School in Sharon. This inspired Joseph to adopt a village in Haiti to support through his restaurant and mission trips.

As Joseph described it, “It gives us an opportunity to help the peo-ple in Haiti while also opening our own eyes to how blessed we are here in America. Our project is es-tablishing a Learning Center with the goal of helping the people of this village to be self-suffi cient.”

It was genuinely heartwarming to listen to Joseph talk about his faith and the hope to be of ser-vice to all who enter his establish-ment. There was no preachiness here, just honesty.

We couldn’t help but refl ect on how clear Joseph was in his priori-ties. It was refreshing for our two tired (and misanthropic) souls at the end of a workday.

After giving us some nourish-ment for our spirit, Joseph ex-cused himself and jaunted into the kitchen.

Since Haitian Sensation is both a restaurant and a coffee shop, it was only fi tting that he started us off with an iced coffee. Hai-tian Mountain Blue coffee mixed with housemade creamer and brown sugar cane. Bold coffee fl a-vor with a slight sweetness. It was very tasty.

W hen talking with Joseph about what he felt we should eat, he told us we needed to try three of his signature dishes: jerk chick-en over rice and beans, fried pork with spicy coleslaw and the popu-lar mac and cheese.

First up was the jerk chicken. Joseph takes bone-in chicken and marinates it for 24 to 48 hours in a jerk marinade. The marinade consists of ghost, jalapeno and habanero peppers as well as green onion, thyme, cinnamon, clove, cayenne and some ingredients he didn’t divulge.

The chicken is seared in a hot pan, then braised with tomato paste and the marinade until tender. The beans are made by soaking black beans overnight, then simmering them in the bean water with garlic, onions and spices until tender.

When the dish appeared at our table, the aroma was wonderful. The chicken was falling off the bone, and the sauce was a little spicy. The rice and beans may sound like an afterthought, but these were amazing and the real star of the show. The rice still had a little bite and the beans were tender. The thing that struck us most about this dish was that there were a lot of bold fl avors but everything was in perfect, bal-ance. We couldn’t stop eating this superb offering.

Next up was the fried pork with spicy slaw. Chunks of pork shoul-der are braised until cooked part-way through, then deep fried. This is served over a delicious coleslaw. The slaw is made with shredded carrot and cabbage, ja-lapeno, habanero, white vinegar and a pinch of cayenne.

While this sounds like it would be too hot, it wasn’t. The slaw was more tangy from the vinegar than

spicy. The pork was crispy and fl avorful. A nice combination for a delicious entrée.

Since the dishes were a little hot, Joseph served us an iced tea made from three kinds of Hai-tian tea leaves, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, mint and brown sugar cane. It was a great counterbal-ance to the spicy entrees and very refreshing.

We then sampled the mac and cheese. Penne pasta mixed with a homemade cheddar cheese sauce. You can get this topped with meat including pork, chicken and beef.

The pasta was cooked nicely, and the sauce was cheesy. We topped ours with pulled pork, which was tender and smoky from the barbecue sauce. Not sure if this is an authentic Haitian dish, but is certainly is comfort food at its best.

For good measure, Joseph also provided us with a pulled pork

sandwich. We added some of the spicy coleslaw to the top, and this was a perfect blend of sweet and spicy.

Haitian Sensation also offers a variety of housemade desserts to please your sweet tooth. We sam-pled four: bread pudding with warm caramel sauce, rum cake, pineapple upside-down cake and chocolate coconut cake. All were very good, but the bread pudding

July 11 was Net Neutrality Day.

If you didn’t hear about it, you’re not alone. When I asked a dozen friends how they were celebrating Net Neutrality Day, most did not know what I was talk-ing about. Online friends simply messaged back with shrugging or “thinking man” emojis.

I couldn’t blame them. Most news coverage was fo-cused on the White House and Russia.

This is not to suggest diminished importance in the fi ght for net neutrality, even if it doesn’t get the fanfare the day deserves.

It is to suggest, however, that every day should be Net Neutrality Day.

What Is Net Neutrality?If you did hear about

Net Neutrality Day, you probably heard the typical sound bite. Yes, it’s a battle for a free and open Inter-net. That really simplifi es it until you consider the role a free internet plays in your daily life.

Net neutrality creates an open atmosphere, mostly devoid of government regu-lation. It creates similar benefi ts for users regardless of size and scope, profi t or nonprofi t status, individual consumer or mega busi-ness.

Everyone has the poten-tial to fl ourish in an open online environment. If you’re Facebook, an online start-up at the Youngstown Business Incubator, or an 87-year-old grandma con-necting with her grandkids via the free computer at the local library, you should have access to an open internet.

The term net neutrality was coined when the FCC started advocating for an open internet. The fi rst real fi ght came when the FCC prohibited companies like Verizon from blocking ac-cess to certain sites.

This all changed in 2014 and 2015 as telecomm companies fought the FCC to suspend some access-blocking rules. The FCC fought successfully to reclassify Verizon and others as “common carri-ers,” making their internet services the same as, say, telephone service.

Ultimately, what Verizon and others want is for you to pay for higher speeds. Want to use Netfl ix? Want to stream movies, music, games? Then you’ll have to pay more for higher speeds.

Of course, this violates the basic premise of a free and open Internet.

And to be sure, the FCC is changing its stance on net neutrality under the Trump administration.

Lauren Culbertson, public policy manager for Twitter, said, “Without the guiding principles of net neutrality, it is entirely possible Twitter would not have come from a some-what quirky experimental 140-character SMS service to where we are today.”

Other social media giants echoed these sentiments.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerbrg posted, “Net neutrality is the idea that the internet should be free and open for everyone. If a service provider can block you from seeing certain content or can make you pay extra for it, that hurts all of us, and we should have rules against it.”

To learn more about net neutrality, and how you can act, go to iadayofaction.org.

Why netneutrality

is anissue

By LINDSEY BAHRAP Film Writer

BEVERLY HILLS, CALIF.“I’m Valerian and she’s Laureline,”

Luc Besson says with a smile, and ges-turing to his producer and wife Vir-ginie Besson-Silla. “She’s the clever one.”

Valerian and Laureline are the lead characters of Besson’s sci-fi epic, “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets,” which hits theaters Friday. They’re names that most American audiences don’t know, even though the French comic about two 28th cen-tury intergalactic cops that it’s based on, “Valerian and Laureline,” has been in existence for 60 years and influ-enced “Star Wars.”

The fi lmmakers are seated in their shared offi ce inside the Beverly Hills outpost of Besson’s company Europa-Corp about a month before the fi lm’s stateside debut.

They were colleagues before they were anything else. Now they have three children, ages 15, 14 and 11, and have found they actually enjoy being partners at the offi ce and home.

“We were not stupid. There is a risk. We took our time and then very con-sciously we said, ‘Let’s try on one to see if it works,”’ Besson says. “Actu-ally it works 10 times better than I expected.”

“Valerian” is by far the biggest fi lm they’ve ever done – estimated to have a $180 million price tag. Both are com-ing off the success of “Lucy” and the decades of goodwill Besson has built up in wild-eyed, crowd pleasing genre fare like “La Femme Nikita,” “The Pro-fessional” and “The Fifth Element.”

He says “Valerian” is the movie of his life.

Though he was a lifetime fan of the series, it wasn’t until he was working on “The Fifth Element” with “Valer-ian” illustrator Jean-Claude Mizihres that he even considered taking it on.

“He’s the one who said, ‘Why don’t you do Valerian?’ I never thought of it before,” Besson says.

Besson wouldn’t acquire the rights for another 10 years. It wasn’t until he visited James Cameron on the set of “Avatar” that he realized a fi lm adap-tation of “Valerian and Laureline” was even possible, technologically speak-ing.

And they’ve taken their time with it. Besson did a large number of character and world sketches himself. He creat-ed a bible with fi ve-page descriptions of all the creatures. Both secured a his-toric collaboration between the two

visual effects giants WETA and ILM to do the 2,700 VFX shots (“The Fifth Ele-ment” had around 200). And he found his perfect leads in two burgeoning stars: Cara Delevingne for Laureline and Dane DeHaan for Valerian.

“I defi nitely don’t want Schwarzeneg-ger to play the part. I want someone human,” Besson says of DeHaan.

They shot the film in France on soundstages that Besson helped de-sign. “We’re very proud to be able to bring such a big production to the country and to bring work to hundreds of people. There’s a real pride in that,” says Besson-Silla. As far as the money goes, Besson isn’t concerned. With international sales, he says the fi lm is 90 percent covered.

“The risk is more psychological than the money. The risk is if we fail then you lose your reputation,” Besson says. “The money risk is almost zero.”

Director calls fi lm the movie of his life

Staff report

WASHINGTONThe Butler Institute of

American Art in Youngs-town has received a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment of the Arts, ac-cording to a news release from U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan. The money will be used to support an art exhibition by Alice Aycock and associated

outreach activities. The ex-hibition will include gallery lectures, workshops, family programming and docent-led tours.

“The NEA empowers lo-cal arts centers to work on bringing arts and culture to all citizens, not just the ones who live in big cities,” said Ryan. “That is why I am pleased that the fi scal year

2018 Interior and Environ-ment Appropriations bill rejected President Trump’s proposal to eliminate the NEA, and instead funds this important agency at $145 million.”

The NEA grant is part of its Arts Engagement in American Communities program.

Aycock, 70, was born in

Harrisburg, Pa., and gained a reputation in the 1960s for her large wooden abstract sculptures.

“She’s a major star,” said Louis A. Zona, director of the Butler.

The Butler exhibition will include drawings, smaller sculptures and one fairly large work. It will open late this year or in early 2018.

DEAR ANNIEAdvice from Annie Laneevery day in Society.

WEDNESDAYJULY 19, 2017 THE VINDICATOR | C4 SOCIETY NEWSDear

Annie

Reader is obsessed

with YouTube

starsDear Annie: I’m young,

and as most young adults do, I have an interest in musicians, authors, art-ists, etc. For me, espe-cially, I find myself en-grossed in YouTubers. These are kids who are around my age, 18 or 19. They make funny videos and do ridiculous things that keep me entertained for hours.

This is where the prob-lem comes in. I found that I’m always drawn to be obsessed with people who are internet-famous. I feel as though I may be this way because of my lack of actual friends, so I think I understand it. But un-derstanding the problem doesn’t necessarily help me sleep at night.

All my life, I’ve been battling being an obses-sive person. As a preteen, I would become enraged if someone pointed out my interest had become an obsession. Now that I’m 18, I’ve changed my reac-tion from enraged at the other person to just plain irritated with myself. I feel as if obsessions are taking over my life.

I’ve tr ied count less times and ways to stop myself, such as putting my phone down, disconnect-ing from the internet for hours or getting outside to be active, but at the end of the day, I’m still hooked. No matter how hard I try to turn my obsession into a “positive addiction,” it always seems to fail, and I’m then sucked into my phone and watching vid-eos again. Every time I try to address the issue with my therapist, I become too embarrassed and change the subject.

I want to help myself because I’ve become so depressed about these ob-sessions, but I’m just not sure what to do.

Obsessed and Tired

Dear Obsessed: Celebrity “obsessions” and fanati-cism have been a normal part of adolescence since the advent of mass media. But the internet has made celebs seem closer to us than ever. We not only can spend endless hours read-ing up on the details of their lives but also may even get a chance to interact with them on social media. This is even truer for internet celebrities, who inherently have close relationships to their fan bases. With this sort of access, it’s easy to see how a young person could get carried away.

But there is so much good news in your letter. You have a thorough under-standing of your issue. You realize it’s impacting your life negatively. You want to change. And you’re in ther-apy – which brings me to my ultimate point. Talk to your therapist about this. Knowing the full details of your life and background, he or she can help address the underlying problems that are driving your obses-sive behavior. And I prom-ise your therapist won’t judge you.

Dear Annie: This is not a question, only a com-ment. I have read advice columns in the paper for 40 years. In that time, I have never seen advice given that is as appro-priate and impressive as yours. It is without a doubt the best column in the pa-per. Thank you!

Dale B.

Dear Dale B.: Thank you for making my day. It’s an honor to have this plat-form, and I’ll keep doing my best not to disappoint. I hope to keep you as a read-er for years to come.

Dear Heloise: You have a recipe for a shrimp dijon dish that I absolutely love. Since I’m trying to impress my new husband with some of my cooking skills, I was hoping you’d reprint that recipe. I lost my copy when my husband and I moved after the wedding.

Mimi F., Lakeland, Fla.

Mimi, I’m happy to oblige. Here it is:

SHRIMP DIJON 1⁄4 cup butter or margarine 1 1⁄2 pounds peeled, dev-

eined shrimp 1 medium onion, thinly

sliced 1⁄4 cup fl our 1 1⁄2 cups milk 2 tablespoons Dijon

mustard 1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg 1⁄2 teaspoon salt 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper 1 6-ounce package cream

cheese, softened

Melt butter or margarine in a frying pan. Add shrimp and onions and saute for 3 minutes; do not brown. Sprinkle fl our into the mixture while thinning the mixture with the milk a little at a time to avoid lumping. Add mus-tard, nutmeg, salt and pepper, and cook for 3-5 minutes. Stir in cream cheese until blended; warm through but do not boil. Serve over rice.

If you like this recipe, I have several more in my Main Dishes and More pam-phlet. Just go to my website, www. Heloise.com, to order it, or send a stamped (70 cents), self-addressed, busi-ness-size envelope, along with $3, to: Heloise/Main Dishes and More, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. There’s nothing that tastes as good as warm, home cooking at any time of the year. What a great way to enjoy time with your closest

friends and your family.

Sprinkle salt on areas �

where grass or weeds grow unwanted, such as between steppingstones. T hen pou r hot water over the salt. It’s an eco-friendly and inexpensive solution.Worried that there might �

be fleas in your carpet? Sprinkle salt on your car-pets and leave it over-night. In the morning, vacuum up thoroughly. Wash dog bedding in salt water.Stung by a bee? Wet the �

YESTERDAY’S ANSWER

Happy Birthday! In The Next Year: The thing you find out about in a backward sort of way is some-thing totally fantastic to go for-ward with. Your horizons will broaden as you dedicate yourself to a repetitive process in Septem-ber. After much work, November brings the financial spike you’ve been waiting for. Exchange prom-ises in December. There Scorpio and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 20, 2, 28 and 19.CELEBRITY PROFILES: Lead gui-tarist for Queen, Brian May com-posed ‘’We Will Rock You,’’ and rock us he did. Then this Cancer became an astrophysicist and published his doctoral thesis on zodiacal light. May was born when the sun, Mercury and Venus were in soulful Cancer. His moon, Sat-urn and Pluto are in entertaining Leo and his natal Mars is in intel-lectual Gemini.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are fighting a nagging feeling that you should be doing some-thing more important with your time. That feeling is not a lie. If you accept it instead of fight it, you’ll get onto something more worthwhile.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Much will be said and not meant. More will be meant and not said. If you’re not feeling your way through the relationship, you’ll get lost pretty quickly. Close your eyes. Cover your ears. Listen with your heart.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Whether or not you’re really in control of your situation could be debated from here to eternity, but that would rob you of the chance to experience (maybe even enjoy) what’s going on regardless of your level of control over it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Dis-traction is the death of meaning. Don’t fill the hours with amuse-ment, because it will only rob you of the chance to find your real pur-pose in the situation. Dig deeper.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Most days you follow the rules, but sometimes you feel bigger than society -- like you can do your thing without getting boxed in by other people’s expectations. For the rest of this week you may swing from one extreme to another.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The passive approach would work if you were on a raft floating down a river with its own agenda. But you’re not. You’re standing on the path that splits into many possi-ble directions, and you have to de-cide which way to walk.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Peo-ple tend to admire the differ-ent talents of those who excel in fields foreign to them and tend to have grudges against those who excel in their own fields, regard-ing them as competitors. Don’t waste time on jealousy. Learn the tricks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Why is your stomach so wise? It is unencumbered by thought. It just knows. Your stomach pro-cesses life in terms of ‘’use’’ and ‘’waste.’’ Turn your difficult ques-tions to your stomach, and accept its simple yes-or-no answer.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The believer is usually happi-er than the doubter, proving that wisdom and happiness often have very little to do with one anoth-er. But there’s a peace that comes with wisdom, and that should count for something today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Beware of the life equivalent of soda pop and candy. You need real sustenance. Seek nutritive experiences. Avoid things that are filled to the brim and yet still unfulfilling.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Who might you be now if you’d taken that turn you missed back there? Well, the option is com-ing up again. Take it, and you’ll know a different version of your-self soon enough.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As for this real life story you’re living, there’s a lot of exposition to get through today. One boring chapter doesn’t discount the value of the whole adventure.ASTROLOGICAL QUESTION: ‘’I recently finished a creative proj-ect I’d been working on for years. When I told my friend, he said my project was a Gemini and would find a friend whenever it passed a mirror. What is he talk-ing about?’’ Whenever something is ‘’born’’ -- be it a nation, a busi-ness, a project, or a person -- it has a birth date in astrology and a corresponding zodiac sign. An example is the United States of America, which celebrates its of-ficial birthday on July 4. The USA is therefore a Cancer, which is a sign known for leadership, patri-otism, food and mothering. Your project, I’m assuming, was born under the sign of Gemini, some time between May 21 and June 21. This bodes well for commu-nicating your idea to others and inspiring discussion. As for the mirror, this could be a reference to the twins that represent the sign. Your friend is probably saying that Gemini is a fortuitous sign for your project, for it will find many friends who see themselves re-flected in your vision. It’s good to be so popular! The key here is to take your project to the right peo-ple, people who will ‘’get’’ it. You will be luckiest when you do your research before you reach out.

ODDLY ENOUGH Trooper answers bovine call, but animal escapes

BOILING SPRINGS, S.C. A young bull remained on the loose

despite a South Carolina Highway Patrol trooper’s best eff orts to corral him.

Media outlets reported the trooper responded last week to a call of the animal roaming through a neighbor-hood in Boiling Springs. Photographs show the trooper staring down the bull.

The bull ran into the yard of Cindi Knox and Phillip Ledesma. He told WSPA most offi cers aren’t trained to be cowboys but that he gives the trooper credit for trying.

The trooper called for backup from other agencies, but the bull ran into the woods.

Highway Patrol spokesman Joe Hovis said loose-animal calls aren’t uncommon, but that the trooper’s at-

tempt to wrangle the bull was a step above an ordinary response.

Delayed date gets couple trip to Hawaii

KENT, OHIO Kent State University students

Josh Avsec and Michelle Arendas have been sporadically messaging each other on the dating platform Tinder since September 2014. They would go months without writing each other back, and when they did respond, it was with excuses such as “sorry my phone died” or “sorry was in the shower.”

Avsec posted the correspondence to Twitter last week, and Tinder took notice. The company reached out to the students July 10 with an off er to send them on a fi rst date in the city of their choosing.

When the pair decided on the Ha-waiian island of Maui, Tinder agreed, but added, “you can’t take two years to pack your bags!”

Man trapped in ATM slips notes to customers begging for help

CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXASPolice said a Texas man who be-

came trapped inside an ATM slipped notes to customers via the receipt slot pleading for them to help him escape.

Corpus Christi police Lt. Chris Hooper said the contractor became stuck Wednesday when he was changing a lock to a Bank of America room that leads to the ATM.

The unidentifi ed contractor, who had left his cellphone in his truck, en-countered a problem with the lock.

He passed notes through the ATM receipt slot to customers retrieving cash. One read, “Please help. I’m stuck in here.”

A customer called police, and upon arrival, an offi cer kicked in the door to the room, freeing the man.
