MIDDLEPORT — Plans for a Fourth of July in
Middleport were canceled July 4 when a slow-moving
storm threatened to put a damper on the festivities.
The event was re-scheduled for July 8, and
according to Debbie Gerlach, president of the
Middleport Village Community Association, everyone
was holding their breath and praying for favorable
weather.
The activities began with a ﬂag-raising ceremony
by members of the Middleport Feeney-Bennette
American Legion Post 128.
Church bells were rung to remember that on July

AT LEFT, Middleport Depot was decorated for the 4th, and welcomed visitors on their way to the parade. AT RIGHT, members of the
Middleport Feeney-Bennette American Legion Post 128 are pictured on their float during Friday’s parade.

OHIO STATE BRIEFS

Supreme Court to hear appeals Ailing alligator
gets CPR at zoo but dies
in 2 death penalty cases
COLUMBUS (AP) — The Ohio Supreme Court
is hearing appeals in two death penalty cases this
week, including a man sentenced to die for a double
slaying ﬁve years ago.
On Tuesday, justices will weigh the death sentence of Dawud Spaulding, condemned to die for
killing 28-year-old Erica Singleton and 31-year-old
Ernest Thomas in Akron in December 2011.
Records show Singleton had a protective order
against Spaulding at the time.
The court will hear arguments Wednesday in the
case of Steven Cepec, who received a death sentence
for strangling 72-year-old Frank Munz in Munz’s
Medina County home in 2010.
Decisions by the court won’t come for several
weeks, and any executions would be years off
because of lengthy appeals and the state’s current
lack of lethal injection drugs.

COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio’s gas prices continued
to fall heading into the workweek.
A gallon of regular gas in Ohio was averaging
$2.10 in Monday’s survey from auto club AAA, the
Oil Price Information Service and WEX Inc. That’s
down 11 cents from the average of around $2.21
reported this time last week and 60 cents below the
state average a month ago.
Monday’s national average of $2.23 remained
higher than Ohio’s average price, but 15 cents lower
than the national average a month ago.
This time last year, the state average was $2.62
and the national average was $2.76.
Gas prices at the pump continue to beneﬁt from
crude oil remaining relatively less expensive than in
recent years.

POWELL (AP) — An animal care team administered CPR to an ailing alligator in front of onlookers
at an Ohio zoo, but it wasn’t enough to save its life.
WBNS-TV reports that ofﬁcials at the Columbus
Zoo and Aquarium say the male alligator had been
under veterinary care for weeks because of a respiratory condition. A crowd watched Saturday as the
team performed CPR.
Zoo ofﬁcials say the alligator’s health continued to
decline rapidly and he died Saturday night.

No injuries reported in
freight train derailment
TONTOGANY (AP) — Authorities say no injuries were reported in a freight train derailment in
northwest Ohio.
The Wood County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce says the train
derailed in the village of Tontogany around 5 p.m.
Sunday. Authorities say at least three cars of the
232-car train derailed and there was some minor
damage to a restaurant.
CSX ofﬁcials say the train was hauling some hazardous materials, but not in the cars that derailed.
The train was on its way to the CSX yard in Walbridge when it derailed at a railroad crossing in the
village about 25 miles southwest of Toledo.
The cause of the derailment wasn’t immediately known.

Atlanta mayor says
police using 12-hour
shifts for protests
By Kathleen Foody
Associated Press

ATLANTA — Atlanta’s mayor said Monday that
police showed “extraordinary restraint” during four
straight nights of protests over the police killings of
black men in Louisiana and Minnesota and urged protesters to show respect to law enforcement as demonstrations continue.
“I believe that our ofﬁcers have done an exceptional
job,” Mayor Kasim Reed said. “In some cases, they have
had bottles of water thrown at them and obscenities and
insults shouted at them repeatedly for hours on end. Yet
they have remained calm and professional.”
Reed said the long hours are taking a toll, though. He
said ofﬁcers also are affected by the fatal shooting of ﬁve
police ofﬁcers in Dallas on Thursday evening as a peaceful protest against police shootings wound down.
“When our ofﬁcers are out on the street in droves, providing protection for your protest, the very least that we
can do is to treat them with the dignity and respect that
they deserve and the dignity and respect that you are
asking for during your protest,” Reed said.
Reed said about 15,000 people attended various protests this weekend, and 14 people were arrested Saturday and Sunday by the Atlanta Police Department. Two
others were arrested by the Georgia State Patrol.
People holding signs gathered each night and marched
through the streets chanting, with the largest crowds
occurring on Friday night. Reed said the crowd changed
from families on Friday to “people unafﬁliated with community organizations that we are aware of” on Saturday
and Sunday.
Demonstrators are expected to gather again Monday
evening. An 11 p.m. closing time will be enforced at city
parks, according to a statement issued later Friday by
the police department.
Anyone violating the ordinance “will receive a warning,” the statement said. “Failure to comply with the
warning can result in an arrest.”
Atlanta Police Chief George Turner ticked off a list of
partner organizations, including the Georgia Information
Sharing and Analysis Center within the state’s Ofﬁce of
Homeland Security. Turner said helicopters, police in
street clothes, cameras located around the city and other
“intelligence gathering” helped manage the weekend
demonstrations.
Reed said police worked 12-hours shifts, with staff and
ofﬁcers logging about 6,000 overtime hours. All off-days
were canceled to manage the marches and demonstrations that continued late into the night over the weekend. He suggested ofﬁcials would have to re-evaluate
their strategy if the protests continue for a full week and
said he’s considering a curfew. Asked whether he would
request National Guard assistance, Reed said “it’s not an
option that I prefer.”
“I think the current conﬁguration is the right conﬁguration that has worked well for us,” he said.
Reed again blasted some protesters’ strategy of blocking freeways as dangerous for themselves and motorists.
Law enforcement agencies have used vehicle convoys to
prevent that in Atlanta in recent days.

Police: Man arrested
at OKC protest after
smoke bombs found
OKLAHOMA CITY
(AP) — Oklahoma City
police believe a man
arrested at a weekend
Black Lives Matter
protest of recent policeinvolved shootings wanted to cause mass panic
with the eight smoke
bombs he was carrying in
a bag.
Brandon Lara, 24, was
arrested Sunday on felony
counts of attempting a
terrorism hoax and possessing an explosive or
incendiary device, according to a probable cause
afﬁdavit. Police also cited
misdemeanor counts
of disturbing the peace
and being masked or disguised in public.
“Obviously, it was
a very good catch by
police,” police spokesman Capt. Paco Balderrama said Monday. “We
believed that this individual intended on lighting
these bombs on ﬁre, and
with the crowd and the
police so tense, it could

have created a deadly situation ... a mass hysteria,
maybe even a stampede
of protesters.”
Police say they stopped
Lara, who is white, after
spotting him at the protest with his face covered
and a bag slung over his
shoulder, according to the
afﬁdavit. Lara wouldn’t
cooperate when police
asked to search his bag
and asked to be released,
claiming his investigative detention was
illegal. When an ofﬁcer
approached, Lara mentioned common law in a
way that led the ofﬁcer
to suspect Lara was inﬂuenced by the sovereigncitizen movement, an
anti-government ideology.
The ofﬁcer then
arrested Lara for gross
disturbance of the peace,
according to the afﬁdavit.
Police searched his bag
and found what appeared
to be eight commercialgrade smoke bombs
labeled “Camo Smoke.”

DALLAS — Military service
changed the Dallas gunman from
an extrovert into a hermit, his parents said in an interview excerpt
published Monday.
Micah Johnson’s mother, Delphine Johnson, told TheBlaze
website in an interview that her
son wanted to be a police ofﬁcer
as a child. His six years in the
Army Reserve, including a tour
in Afghanistan, were “not what
Micah thought it would be ... what
he thought the military represented, it just didn’t live up to his
expectations.” According to the
military lawyer who represented
him, Johnson was accused of sexually harassing a female soldier
while deployed.
His father, James Johnson said
haltingly and through tears: “I
don’t know what to say to anybody to make anything better. I
didn’t see it coming.”
The black 25-year-old fatally
shot ﬁve ofﬁcers in Thursday’s
attack while hundreds of people
were gathered in downtown Dallas to protest recent fatal police
shootings, and wounded at least
nine ofﬁcers and two civilians.
Dallas Police Chief David Brown
clariﬁed Monday where Johnson
was killed with a bomb delivered
by a remote-controlled robot, saying that it happened on the second
ﬂoor of El Centro College, not a
parking garage as authorities previously described. Brown did not
provide more details, including
the locations of the negotiations

that came before the bomb.
The police chief again defended
the decision to use the robot, saying he had “already killed us in
a grave way, and ofﬁcers were in
surgery that didn’t make it.”
“This wasn’t an ethical dilemma
for me,” Brown said. “I’d do it
again ... to save our ofﬁcers’ lives.”
Authorities have said Johnson
had plans for a larger assault, possessed enough explosive material
to inﬂict far greater harm and kept
a journal of combat tactics. Eleven
ofﬁcers ﬁred at Johnson and two
used an explosive device, Brown
said, adding that the investigation will involve more than 170
hours of body camera footage
and “countless hours” of dashcam
video.
“Bravery is not a strong enough
word to describe what they did
that day,” Brown said of ofﬁcers’
response to Thursday’s events.
Surgeons at Parkland Memorial
Hospital spoke Monday afternoon about treating some of the
victims. Dr. Brian H. Williams,
who is black, said: “It weighs on
my mind constantly (that he was
unable to save the ofﬁcers ... It
has to stop. Black men dying and
being forgotten. People retaliating
against the people sworn to protect us.”
Dr. Alex Eastman, the director
of the hospital’s trauma center
who also is a deputy medical
director with the city’s police
department, said the shootings
“rocked some guys to their core
that I thought were unshakable.”
Brown provided details of
authorities’ negotiations with

police Sunday on CNN’s “State
of the Union,” saying Johnson
laughed at authorities, sang and at
one point asked how many ofﬁcers
he had shot. Johnson insisted on
speaking with a black negotiator
and wrote “RB” and other markings in blood on the wall — the
meanings of which were unclear
and being looked at by investigators, Brown said.
Federal agents are trying to
trace the origin of the weapons
used by Johnson, including a
military-style semi-automatic riﬂe.
About 30 agents are involved in
identifying bullet casings, said
William Temple, the Dallas agent
in charge for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Johnson’s time in the Army was
marked by a sexual harassment
accusation in May 2014 while
in Afghanistan. The Army sent
him stateside, recommending an
“other than honorable discharge”
— which is “highly unusual”
because counseling is usually
ordered before more drastic steps
are taken, said Bradford Glendening, the military lawyer who represented him.
“In his case, it was apparently so
egregious, it was not just the act
itself,” Glendening told The Associated Press. “I’m sure that this guy
was the black sheep of his unit.”
According to a court ﬁling, the
victim said she wanted Johnson
to “receive mental help,” and
sought a protective order to keep
him away from her and her family.
Johnson was ordered to avoid all
contact with her.

THEIR VIEW

Lubricate your
life with feelings
Pain isn’t fun, but it makes me feel alive.
Most days I feel more like 27 than 47, but when
bicep tendonitis and an impingement cramped my
workout style, I got a taste of the over-the-hill version of mobility — and it tasted bitter.
At ﬁrst I ignored the aching sensation, telling
myself that it was just a cramp. I had lifted weights
for years and had never sustained a
sports injury. I was in denial that the
pain could be an indication of a more
severe problem.
Eventually, activities I once enjoyed
became painful reminders of my handicap. My arm sounded like the Rice
Krispy brothers were having a snapMichele
crackle-pop sort of party on it with the
Z. Marcum simplest of tasks — reaching to get
Contributing a mug from the cupboard, swiping a
Columnist
dishcloth across the counter, curling
my hair.
So, I stretched my shoulder, hoping
to alleviate the pain. I rubbed Arnica gel on it — had
deep tissue massage. I laid off the bench-pressing
and the pullups, but after weeks of self-employed
therapy, the cereal band’s ensemble on my shoulder
had progressed to what sounded like an entire Boy
Scout Troop snapping twigs. Finally, I indulged in a
cortisone shot that also contained a pain reliever and
oh, the bliss of being numb!
When I was released by the doctor to resume a
light workout weeks later, my entire arm was sore,
stiff and worst of all, weak. I could only bench three
fourths of the weight I had been. My ego deﬁnitely
took more of a battering than my shoulder did.
Instead of unrolling my mat in the front row at
yoga, I headed to the back so I could modify my postures and grimace without the others in class noticing. I extended my arms as high as I could reach. I
delved toward the mat in push-up formation. I braced
myself in downward dog. I forced myself through
the tightness while obeying an agreement I had with
my body — if a pose brought tears, I’d stop. The last
thing I wanted was to reinjure my shoulder and end
up getting another shot to numb the pain.
The more I moved and lubricated the joint, the
better my shoulder felt. I attributed this to the steroid because before the shot I’d been making the
same motions, but the pain had gotten worse instead
of better. I was thankful for the shot’s healing component, but normally I avoid being numb.
Feeling the physical sensations in my body is an
aspect of my humanness that I like to foster, but
embracing life often means embracing the pain that
accompanies it. Sometimes the pain is in my shoulder, but more often than not, it’s in the form of hurt
feelings, disappointments or misunderstandings
between me and someone else.
There are many substances that can numb the
mind so that relationship struggles are, at least for a
speck of time, forgotten. But just like my shoulder,
wounds that are ignored and denied get more painful
and stiff until, eventually, rigamortis sets in.
Keeping this in mind, I do feel that sometimes a
short numbing period is needed to reﬂect and to
heal. The numbness in my shoulder gave me a bit
of a relief before diving into a restorative workout
routine, regenerating my stiff joints and revitalizing
my attitude, but I won’t make a habit of getting injections. Living life numb is like watching a black and
white version of the sunset, and why would I want
to do that when I can feel the fabric of every color of
the rainbow — when I can sip on the sweet nectar
from a natural endorphin rush.
So, I will continue to gobble up all the joy I can as
I work through physical aches and relationship pains.
I’ll hum through the rainforests, mud splashing my
legs, sweat dripping over my eyelids — lubricating
the joy in my soul and the joints near my bones.

TODAY IN HISTORY...
Today is Tuesday, July
12, the 194th day of 2016.
There are 172 days left in
the year.
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On July 12, 1984, Democratic presidential candidate Walter F. Mondale
announced his choice of
U.S. Rep. Geraldine A. Ferraro of New York to be his
running-mate; Ferraro was
the ﬁrst woman to run for
vice president on a majorparty ticket.
On this date:
In 1543, England’s King
Henry VIII married his
sixth and last wife, Catherine Parr.
In 1862, during the Civil
War, President Abraham
Lincoln signed a bill authorizing the Army Medal of
Honor.
In 1909, the House of
Representatives joined the

Senate in passing the 16th
Amendment to the U.S.
Constitution, allowing for
a federal income tax, and
submitted it to the states.
(It was declared ratiﬁed in
February 1913.)
In 1948, the Democratic
National Convention,
which nominated President Harry S. Truman for
a second term of ofﬁce,
opened in Philadelphia.
In 1957, President
Dwight D. Eisenhower
was ﬂown by helicopter
from the White House
to a secret mountaintop
location as part of a drill
involving a mock nuclear
attack on Washington.

lem, but then plunge into ﬁxing it.
I frequently hear from people
who are exasperated by the
obstacles they have to overcome
in order to make a difference: fellow citizens who are ignorant of
the system, politicians who are
too obtuse or self-interested to
see the light, incompetence in the
bureaucracy, ofﬁcials protecting
turf…. But here’s the thing: those
obstacles will always be there. You
just have to keep plugging away
at overcoming them, whether by
casting an informed ballot, sitting down with — or protesting
against — political leaders, or
ﬁnding the myriad ways you can
improve the quality of life for your
neighbors and fellow Americans.
You may already have picked
up on the ﬁnal quality that makes
for effective citizenship, and it’s a
tough one. For the most part, we’re
not going to solve our challenges in
a single generation. So we have to
educate our children and those who
come after us in the same skill sets
I’ve been talking about.
That’s because, as I said at the
start, our representative democracy is not all about the presidency.
We —you, me, and our fellow
citizens — are responsible for the
future of our neighborhoods and
our nation. Unless we all shoulder
the obligation to learn the skills we
need to shepherd it into the future,
and then teach those skills to others, our country and our system
will struggle.

Williams gets to 22 at Wimbledon
LONDON (AP) — To
hear Serena Williams and
her coach tell it, the process
of getting her ready to win
Wimbledon for a recordtying 22nd Grand Slam title
began with a series of chats
over the phone not long
after her loss in the French
Open ﬁnal.
That setback in Paris
marked the third consecutive major tournament that
Williams left without the

tennis player would not be a
big deal but to the 34-yearTim Ireland | AP

on Saturday. The win was Williams’ 22nd Grand Slam title, a record.
So she and Patrick Mou-

ratoglou touched base
repeatedly to hash it all out.
“I was just talking
through things, and how
I was disappointed that I
lost the French, and what I
needed to do, to do better
at Wimbledon. We were
strategizing a lot,” Williams
told a small group of reporters in her last of many
interviews Saturday night,
about 7 hours after beating
Angelique Kerber 7-5, 6-3
for the championship at the
All England Club.
“It wasn’t one conversation,” Williams said. “We
talked for at least ﬁve — so
many times. Almost every

day. Just to try to feel what
I needed to do and what
was going to be done.”
At some point during that
period, Williams sent a text
message to Mouratoglou
that he found full of meaning.
“He said he recognized
that I was different and I
was back to who I am, usually,” Williams said. “And
I was like, ‘What does that
mean?’ He just said that he
felt I was different when I
sent that text. He was very
encouraged by it, and we
were able to build on it.”

5-time NBA
champion
Duncan retires
By Jon Krawczynski
AP Basketball Writer

Tim Duncan spent
nearly two decades as
the quiet storm in the
middle of the San Antonio Spurs franchise,
putting the team on his
broad shoulders and
carrying it to heights
unseen in modern
American sports.
With Duncan as the
focal point, the Spurs
won ﬁve championships, made the playoffs
in all 19 of his seasons
and cemented themselves as one of the
most successful sports
franchises in history.
And now, the tireless
and reluctant superstar
is ﬁnally calling it a
career.
The 40-year-old
Duncan announced his
retirement on Monday,
marking the end of an
era for the Spurs and
the NBA.
“The greatest power
forward ever,” the Los
Angeles Clippers’ Jamal
Crawford said Monday, as the tributes to
Duncan’s career began
coming.
Few would dare
argue.
Duncan was the No.
1 overall pick in 1997
and teamed with coach
Gregg Popovich, point
guard Tony Parker and
shooting guard Manu
Ginobili to turn the
Spurs from a solid franchise that could never
quite get over the hump
into one of the league’s
superpowers.
“The constant staple
of their franchise,”
Cleveland’s LeBron
James said earlier this
year.
The unassuming

Duncan won two MVP
awards and was one
of just four players to
be named NBA Finals
MVP at least three
times.
Nicknamed “The Big
Fundamental” for his
clinical approach that
favored bank shots over
dunks, he was a 15-time
All-Star, a member
of the All-NBA ﬁrst
team 10 times and is
one of only three players — joining Kareem
Abdul-Jabbar and Robert Parrish — to win at
least 1,000 games in his
career.
He is ﬁfth on the
NBA’s career list
in blocks, sixth in
rebounds and 14th in
scoring.
“Even tho I knew it
was coming, I’m still
moved by the news,”
Ginobili tweeted. “What
a HUGE honor to have
played with him for 14
seasons! #ThankYouTD.”
NBA Commissioner
Adam Silver called
Duncan “one of the
most dominant players in NBA history”
and lauded him for an
“understated selﬂessness (that) made him
the ultimate teammate.”
“For two decades Tim
represented the Spurs,
the city of San Antonio
and the league with passion and class,” Silver
said. “All of us in the
NBA family thank him
for his profound impact
on the game.”
Duncan was never
one for big endorsement deals or look-atme press conferences,
which is why he was
often overshadowed in

Brad Keselowski stands on his car in Victory Lane after his win in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at Kentucky Speedway,
Saturday in Sparta, Ky.

Keselowski wins for 3rd time at Ky.
SPARTA, Ky. (AP) — Brad
Keselowski’s calm demeanor was
never more evident than his cool
response to a tense moment.
He radioed crew chief Paul Wolfe
that his No. 2 Ford was out of
fuel but stayed focused, heeding
instructions to milk whatever mileage he could.
Keselowski ended up having
enough to become the ﬁrst threetime winner at Kentucky Speedway
on Saturday night, overtaking
Kevin Harvick on lap 201 and holding on for the Sprint Cup Series
victory.
“We ran out with about two
(laps) to go,” he said. “Somehow
we limped it around and stay
ahead of Carl (Edwards) and bring
it home. This is something I’m not
going to forget.
“It’s a pretty helpless feeling
being out of gas with guys behind
you. But there’s nothing you can
about it, and freaking out ain’t
going to help anything.”
Matt Kenseth grabbed the lead
with six laps remaining but soon
pitted for fuel to hand the top spot
back to Keselowski, who had just
enough gas in reserve to edge
Edwards by .175 seconds in the
closest victory margin for the 400mile race.
Keselowski’s tank eventually ran
dry and he needed a tow truck to
get to victory lane.
Ryan Newman was third, followed by Kurt Busch and then
Tony Stewart in ﬁfth in his ﬁnal
Kentucky race.
The three-time series champion
is retiring after this season.

Keselowski led three times for
a total of 75 laps on his way to his
second straight win and series-best
fourth of the season that clinched
a spot in the Chase for the championship.
All of his Kentucky wins have
come in even-numbered years —
the others came in 2012 and 2014
— and his latest triumph on the
1.5 mile tri-oval might have been
his most impressive in terms of
strategy.
The Penske Racing driver pitted just four times after starting
second and made the most of his
gas tank down to the last drop,
withstanding one last charge from
Edwards.
Those ﬁnal laps were still nervewracking for Wolfe, but he’s been
in this situation before with Keselowski and things have turned out
well.
“I felt pretty good about it
(fuel) until the 19 (Edwards)
closed up on us,” he said. “He
was able to go and I think he
said, shut it off a little bit down
the back and as he got into the
corner it picked up. Once we
were coming off (turn) 4, I saw
he was still under power and I
felt like we had it at that point.”
Said Edwards: “I thought he was
out of fuel, but he did a good job.”
Keselowski clearly got a lot from
his tires and setup, both of which
were important on the resurfaced
and reconﬁgured track featuring
higher banking in turns and 1 and
2.
He lamented the smoothing of
front-stretch bumps he said added

character to Kentucky, but quickly
adapted to the improvements and
new NASCAR rules that reduced
downforce and sideforce.
Harvick, the pole-sitter, led for
a race-high 128 laps and ﬁnished
ninth.
Keselowski guided his Ford past
Harvick’s Chevy on lap 201 after
the race record-tying 11th caution.
The race then stayed green to
the end.
Accidents were the story early
on. Some notable names were collected, including Jimmie Johnson,
Joey Logano and rookie Chase
Elliott.
Some other notes from the Kentucky race:
HARD HIT: Logano’s No. 22
Ford was knocked out after hitting the wall, an impact that left
him 38th and red-faced. “That was
one of the hardest hits I’ve had in
a while,” he said. Of his race, he
added, “it doesn’t hurt. I think it’s
just red.”
TIRES HOLD UP: Despite
double-digit cautions that quickly
made Goodyear’s tires an easy
target, the package that differed
from last month’s test held up well.
Spokesman Mike Siberini said tires
were cut by other factors, but there
was no blistering like the type the
company found after the June test
here.
PARTING GIFT: Stewart
received a Kentucky basketball jersey from former Wildcats coach Joe
B. Hall and ex-players Jack “Goose”
Givens and Kyle Macy from the
1978 NCAA championship team.

Golden State star Draymond
Green arrested for assault
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Golden State
Warriors star Draymond Green was arrested for an
alleged assault over the weekend in East Lansing,
Michigan, according to online court records.
The incident occurred around 2:30 a.m. Sunday in
the city where Green played for Michigan State from
2008-12.
An East Lansing police spokesman did not immediately return a call seeking details.
Messages seeking comment were left for Green.
If convicted of assault or assault and battery,
Green could face 93 days in jail, a $500 ﬁne or both.
The Warriors said the team was collecting information about the incident and declined comment
“until we have a better understanding of the situation.”
Records from the East Lansing District Court
show that a $200 cash bond was paid.

Despite floods, Greenbrier
tennis exhibition will be held
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — A
two-day tennis exhibition will be held as scheduled
in September at The Greenbrier resort despite
recent ﬂoods.
The resort announced Monday that the 2,500seat tennis stadium in White Sulphur Springs will
be cleaned up before the exhibition on Sept. 17 and
18.
The event includes singles and doubles matches
involving Venus Williams, Madison Keys, Pete Sampras and John McEnroe.
The resort, including the year-old stadium, was
ﬂooded following heavy rains on June 23.
Fifteen people died in Greenbrier County and 23
were killed statewide.

W.Va. attorney general: Select
fantasy sports legal
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia
Attorney General Patrick Morrisey released an
opinion on Monday that says select fantasy sports
games are legal in the state.
West Virginia’s constitution prohibits private lotteries and other games of chance. But Morrisey’s
opinion released after a review of state law said
cash prizes from fantasy sports games are based
upon a player’s skill in selecting athletes and the
actual performance of those athletes.
Morrisey said state Senate President Bill Cole
requested the opinion after Senate-passed legislation to permit fantasy sports died in the House of
Delegates. The bill addressed businesses like DraftKings and FanDuel.
“Fantasy sports games are a bit different than
games that are decided predominantly by chance,”
Morrisey said. “So if you play fantasy sports that
are set up the right way, then this decision makes it
clear that you can continue to participate.”
Several states have wrestled with the question of
whether the popular games played by millions of
Americans should be banned outright or face more
regulation.
With the start of the ﬁscal year July 1, several
states imposed new taxes and fees on the games.
Virginia and Indiana are charging an initial $50,000
fee for fantasy sports websites to operate in those
states. Tennessee is imposing a 6 percent revenue
tax on such companies.

Murray’s 1st Wimbledon victory
LONDON (AP) — Andy Murray’s ﬁrst Wimbledon championship was for his country.
This one was for Andy Murray.
Dulling big serves with quickreﬂex returns, conjuring up daring passing shots and playing
impressively mistake-free tennis
all the while, Murray beat Milos
Raonic 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (2) on
Sunday for his second trophy at
the All England Club and third
Grand Slam title overall.
In 2013, Murray famously
ended Britain’s 77-year wait for
one of its own to win the men’s
ﬁnal at Wimbledon, a quest that
became burdensome.
Now he wanted a victory to
end his personal rut of three consecutive losses in major ﬁnals,
including at the Australian Open
in January, and French Open last
month.
“It is different. I feel happier
this time. I feel more content this
time. I feel like this was sort of
more for myself more than anything, and my team as well,” the
second-seeded Murray said. “Last
time, it was just pure relief, and I
didn’t really enjoy the moment as
much, whereas I’m going to make
sure I enjoy this one.”
This was his 11th Grand Slam
ﬁnal, but the ﬁrst against someone other than Novak Djokovic or
Roger Federer. The sixth-seeded
Raonic eliminated Federer in
ﬁve sets in the semiﬁnals Friday,
and also defeated the player who
stunned Djokovic in the third
round, Sam Querrey.
Those wins helped Raonic

ing Canada to reach a major ﬁnal.
He did it, primarily, by averaging 25½ aces through six matches. But on a breezy afternoon, at
a Centre Court ﬁlled with nearly
15,000 partisan fans, Murray
shut down that integral part of
Raonic’s game.
“This one’s going to sting,”
Raonic said.
It’s been a rough few weeks
for Britain, what with its vote to
leave the European Union, the
drop of the pound’s value, and
the resignation of Prime Minister
David Cameron, who was seated
in the front row of the Royal Box
on Sunday, several seats over from
Prince William and his wife, Kate.
During the trophy presentation, Murray joked: “Playing in

Overcoming Your Credit Card Crisis
The battle with credit card debt can
be a constant struggle against high
interest rates and monthly payments
that never seem to make a dent in
what you owe. How is it possible to
make monthly credit card payments
and never get anywhere?
This problem is caused by high
interest rates that eats up most of
your payments. Even though you
make your minimum payment,
you don’t make much headway
eliminating the debt.
Luckily, there’s a way to find debt
relief without incurring more
debts. Using certified credit
counseling like Consolidated
Credit, you can get professional

advice to identify the right solution for your needs.
A certified credit counselor
can review your options to
see which solution is best for
you. You can qualify for lower
interest rates or even eliminate
them, while consolidating your
credit card debt into one easy
payment to get you out of debt
faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see
a reduction of total payments
by up to 30-50% as they pay off
debt faster.

Freedom from debt can
become a reality!

I certainly wouldn’t like to be a
prime minister. It’s an impossible
job.”
Murray, a 29-year-old from
Scotland, long dealt with the
expectations that accompanied
being Britain’s best chance to
ﬁnd a male champion to succeed
Fred Perry, who last won the
grass-court tournament in 1936.
After Sunday’s victory, Murray’s
mother, former British Fed Cup
captain Judy, referred to that old
phenomenon as, “The constant,
‘When are you going to win
Wimbledon? When are you going
to win Wimbledon? When are you
going to win Wimbledon?’”
But her son has dealt with that
and thrived, thanks to a counterpunching game and sublime
returns of serve.

Lesnar beats Hunt, Nunes stuns Tate for title at UFC 200
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Brock
Lesnar returned from a 4
1/2-year UFC absence with a
unanimous-decision victory
over Mark Hunt, and Nunes
took the bantamweight title
from Miesha Tate with a
stunning first-round stoppage at UFC 200 on Saturday
night.
Jose Aldo also won a competitive decision over Frankie
Edgar to claim the interim
featherweight title on the
UFC’s star-studded landmark
show.
Daniel Cormier dominated a
decision over Anderson Silva,
who took the ﬁght on two days’
notice after Jon Jones was
dropped from the main event

for failing a drug test.
While Brazil’s Nunes shocked
Tate in the main event, the
hulking Lesnar (6-3) was the
greatest curiosity on the card.
The pro wrestler earned his
ﬁrst mixed martial arts victory
since July 2010, dominating
Hunt with wrestling skill and
sheer mass.
“I’m older, and when I decided to make this comeback,
it was a hard decision,” the
39-year-old Lesnar said. “I’m
glad I did. This goes to show
for everybody out there, if you
don’t stick your neck out, you’ll
never get ahead.”
UFC 200 capped three ﬁght
cards over three days for the
world’s dominant MMA pro-

Williams
From Page 6

Recalled Mouratoglou on Saturday: “I
felt like the Serena I know was back. …
Back to thinking the way she thinks.”
That was important, he knew,
because it wasn’t as if she had forgotten
how to play, of course, or allowed her
skills to erode, even if she already was

motion, which used a golden
canvas for its ﬁrst event in
T-Mobile Arena, the spacious
new entertainment venue just
off the Las Vegas Strip.
The UFC stacked the card
with compelling matchups, and
while every ﬁght wasn’t a classic, the underdog Nunes’ victory was a stunner.
“Everybody knows that I
respect Miesha a lot, (but)
I’m the new champion,” said
Nunes, also the ﬁrst openly gay
champion in UFC history. “For
years I’ve been working hard
for this moment. I feel amazing.”
Nunes (14-4) became the
fourth different ﬁghter to hold
the UFC’s 135-pound belt in

the oldest woman to be ranked No. 1
and the oldest to win a major title.
He realized he hadn’t quite seen the
same person ever since Williams’ bid
for a calendar-year Grand Slam in 2015
ended with a loss to Roberta Vinci in
the U.S. Open semiﬁnals, one of the biggest surprises in tennis history.
After that came defeats for Williams
in two Grand Slam ﬁnals, against Kerber at the Australian Open, then against

the last eight months since
Ronda Rousey lost it to Holly
Holm. Holm lost the belt to
Tate in March, but Nunes
dominated Tate (18-6) from the
start, stunning her with multiple big shots.
Tate was bloodied and
unsteady by the time Nunes
sunk in a rear naked choke
and ended it 3:16 into the ﬁrst
round.
“When I saw she was hurt,
I controlled myself, because
I know she can come back,”
Nunes said. “I made sure she
couldn’t come back anymore.”
Lesnar made a UFC-record
$2.5 million guaranteed
purse for his ﬁrst bout since
late 2011, returning to the

Garbine Muguruza at Roland Garros.
Thinking back to what happened in
New York, Mouratoglou said: “Either
she or I — we both — didn’t know she
was that hurt. I think it took a lot of
time. She was not herself.”
During the past two weeks at Wimbledon, Williams certainly did appear
to be back to possessing the conﬁdent,
all-powerful presence the world is accustomed to seeing and hearing — on and
off the court.
“One day, I woke up and I just felt
different,” Williams said, referring to
those days after the French Open. “I felt
like: I can do better. I can do this. Not

sport where he won and lost
the heavyweight title during a meteoric MMA career.
Although he walked away after
consecutive losses and serious
health problems, he couldn’t
stop thinking about a return
while racking up easier money
in the WWE.
The main-event star of UFC
100 seized the opportunity to
be on another landmark show,
and his performance showed
that his inimitable athleticism
hadn’t diminished. Lesnar
never wandered into trouble
against the famously heavyhanded Hunt, repeatedly
taking down his veteran opponent and keeping him pinned
to the canvas.

only can I do this, I’m going to do this,
and there’s nothing in this world that’s
going to stop me.”
That was evident in her play, to be
sure, particularly in that spectacular
serve, which produced 13 aces at up to
a tournament-leading 124 mph against
Kerber.

She replied: “I prefer the word, one of

very outspoken or emoting sort of individual on
the court,” Popovich said
earlier this year. “Everybody does it differently.”
And Duncan was truly
one of a kind.
In 1997, after an injury
to star David Robinson,
the Spurs plunged in the
standings and ended up
with a chance at the No. 1
overall pick.
They won the lottery,
and it was a no-brainer to
choose Duncan, the polished, two-way big man
who had spent four years
at Wake Forest.
The Spurs won 36 more
games in Duncan’s rookie
year than they had the
previous season and were
NBA champions in his
sophomore campaign.
They also won titles
in 2003, 2005, 2007
and 2014, the last one a
dominant run to redemption over James and the
Miami Heat after losing
to them in seven games
the previous season.
For at least the last
ﬁve seasons of his career,
Duncan would face retirement questions.
But he never really
changed.
You could see a few
gray hairs near his
temples as the years
wore on, but his face, his
body, his game all bore a
striking resemblance to
the 21-year-old who averaged 21.1 points and 11.9
rebounds in his ﬁrst year
in the league.
Here’s how long he was
with the Spurs: He had
140 different teammates
there.
He was a 38-year-old
All-Star in 2014-15 and
even as his minutes were
reduced to save the wear
and tear on his body for
the playoffs, he remained
a force on the defensive
end and on the glass.
He used an exhaustive
workout regimen of boxing, swimming and diet
to help him keep pace
with the younger, faster,
stronger players that kept
coming at him year after
year.
The Spurs won a franchise-record 67 regularseason games this past
season.
Despite Duncan’s individual statistics dipping
to career lows, coaches
and teammates said the
impact his leadership,
intelligence and defensive
presence had continued
to be elite.
And now he steps away.
