CINCINNATI — A man accused
of plotting to attack the U.S. Capitol in support of the Islamic State
group during President Barack
Obama’s 2015 State of the Union
address pleaded guilty Monday to
three federal charges.
Federal prosecutors dropped a
fourth count and said they would
seek a maximum of 30 years in
prison at the Oct. 31 sentencing
hearing for 22-year-old Christopher Lee Cornell. U.S. District
Judge Sandra Beckwith cautioned
Cornell that she could reject the
plea agreement depending on the

ﬁndings of a presentencing report.
FBI agents arrested Cornell in the
parking lot of a gun shop in suburban Cincinnati, saying he had just
bought two M-15 semi-automatic
riﬂes and 600 rounds of ammunition. They have said he planned to
attack the Capitol with pipe bombs,
then shoot people as they ﬂed.
He was arrested Jan. 14, 2015,
less than a week before Obama’s
scheduled address in Washington,
which a federal terrorism task force
detective said in court Monday was
Cornell’s intended timing for attack.
Last year, Cornell told WXIX-TV
that he wanted to shoot Obama in
the head.
Cornell’s father had said his

son was misled and coerced by “a
snitch.” Cornell’s attorneys said
Monday they would highlight the
role of a government conﬁdential
informant at the sentencing hearing.
Federal investigators said Cornell made an Internet post after
his arrest in which he identiﬁed
the man he believed he was the
informant and added personal
details about him. They said he also
appealed for other ﬁghters to join a
violent “jihad.”
U.S. authorities have expressed
deep concern over Islamic State militant efforts to recruit homegrown
“lone wolf” terrorists.

a degree in biochemical
engineering from the
University of Southern
California and now lives
and works in Maryland
as a chemical engineer.
But he comes back to
Gratiot often to tend the
shrimp.
He became interested
in the idea of a shrimp
farm after meeting a
Purdue University aquaculture professor, but he
ultimately decided to see
it through for his family. Chen’s parents own
a Chinese restaurant in
Zanesville, and he hopes
to give them an alternative to the busy restaurant industry they’ve
worked in for more than
30 years.
“It’s tough,” Chen said.
“This is a simpler lifestyle for them.”
His parents maintain
the day-to-day operations at the facility when
Chen is away.
Prawn farms have
become popular, with
about 25 in Ohio, but
saltwater shrimp farms
are fairly new, said Matthew Smith, extension
aquaculture specialist at
Ohio State University’s
South Centers in Piketon. The Ocean’s Friend
Aquaculture is believed
to be the only saltwater
shrimp farm operating
right now in Ohio, Smith
said.
Prawns are grown in
fresh water and shrimp
are grown in saltwater

but are otherwise very
similar. Prawns can grow
a little bit larger, but the
texture and taste are
alike, Smith said. Unlike
prawns, growing shrimp
in a facility like Chen’s
means that weather isn’t
an issue, Smith added.
“Everyone’s pretty
familiar with the freshwater prawns, and it’s a
very captivating thing
because they are grown
here,” Smith said. “But
I think the saltwater
hits home even more
because Americans
do consume so much
shrimp.”
Growing saltwater
shrimp in Ohio also
plays into the popular
local food movement,
Smith said. Consumers
get peace of mind knowing where their food
comes from, which is
especially important in
the shrimp industry, he
said.
More than 90 percent
of seafood consumed in
the United States annually is imported, according
to the National Marine
Fisheries Service.
But with shrimp raised
here, consumers don’t
have to guess where it
came from, Smith said.
“They want food
grown locally, they know
the farmer who grows it,
they know the county it’s
grown in,” he said.
The Chens are beginning to sell their shrimp
at some local farmers
markets, including
Zanesville’s.

“If you are repeatedly having

Trump’s response? On Twitter, he said, “President Obama

Obama’s harsh comments were
an attempt to raise the stakes for
Republicans, suggesting their
support for Trump will taint their

efforts to reach out to Republican
voters — particularly women —

THEIR VIEW

Climate change
rhetoric often
meaningless
The best answer to many of the excited claims
by climate activists and their political allies is simply: of course!
“Climate change is real,” they say. Of course!
Gravity and sunrise are also real. But that doesn’t
mean we cause them or we would be better off
without them. Climate has been
changing since the origin of the
atmosphere billions of years ago.
But, “manmade climate change is
a fact,” they respond. Of course! It
is obviously warmer in urban areas
than in the countryside because of
manmade impacts. However, the
only place where carbon dioxide
Tom
(CO2) increase causes a temperaHarris
Contributing ture increase is in computer models
preprogrammed to show exactly
Columnist
that. All records show that temperature increase precedes CO2
increase.
All that should matter to public ofﬁcials is
whether our CO2 emissions are in any way dangerous. Since they are almost certainly not, the $1
billion spent every day across the world on climate
ﬁnance is mostly wasted.
But, they tell us, “2014 was the hottest year
on record, until 2015 surpassed even that. The
last two decades include the 19 hottest years on
record.”
Of course! One would naturally expect the
warmest years to be at the top of a warming
record. And thank goodness we have been in a
gradual warming trend since the depths of the
Little Ice Age in the late 1600s.
Regardless, 2014 set the record by seven hundredths of a degree Fahrenheit; 2015 by 29 hundredths of a degree. These amounts are too small
to even notice and one is even less than the government’s uncertainty estimates of 14 hundredths
of a degree.
But “observations of extreme weather events are
increasing. Insurance claims are skyrocketing,” we
are told.
Of course! As human habitation increases in
areas that were previously sparsely populated,
there will naturally be more reports of extreme
weather and more related insurance claims. The
database of the State Climate Extremes Committee (see http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/extremes/scec/
records) clearly shows that the incidence of statewide extreme weather records has been decreasing in recent years.
The next alarmist claim? “Sea levels rose 7
inches in the last century!”
Of course! Sea level has been rising since the
end of the last glacial period, 15,000 years ago.
There has been no recent acceleration, and the
current rate of rise is less than one tenth that of
8,000 years ago.
Climate campaigners are upset that fossil fuel
companies support some of the groups who question political correctness on climate change.
Of course! But the amounts being funneled to
entities which support the climate scare is enormously greater. The latest Foundation Center
report (2010) shows that the California-based William and Flora Hewlett Foundation alone donated
over one half billion dollars to climate change programs in 2008, over one hundred times as much
as the average annual donation activists complain
that the Koch brothers have given to skeptics.
All this would be humorous if it did not have
such serious ramiﬁcations. In the vain hope of
stopping trivial changes in climate, activists and
compliant politicians are working hard to force us
to switch from coal and other fossil fuels, America’s least expensive and most abundant power
sources, to unreliable and expensive alternatives
such as wind and solar power. The public need to
ask them, “Why are you doing this? Who are you
trying to please?”

International Climate Science Coalition. Dr. Tim Ball is an
environmental consultant and former climatology professor at the

Man accused in infant

CINCINNATI (AP) — An Indianapolis police officer arrested in
Ohio after he allegedly shot a fellow

face an attempted murder charge.
Officer Adrian Aurs agreed Tuesday to waive extradition during a
brief court hearing in Cincinnati.
Indianapolis police spokesman
Sgt. Kendale Adams says the Marion
County Sheriff’s Department would
return the 42-year-old officer to Indianapolis. He says information about
the timing of the transfer won’t be
disclosed due to security concerns.
Authorities say Aurs shot an Indianapolis police detective late Friday
as that officer was interviewing Aurs’
estranged wife about a domestic violence incident.
The detective suffered non-lifethreatening injuries to his right side
and arm.
Aurs allegedly fled his wife’s
Indianapolis apartment in his truck
after the shooting. Cincinnati police
arrested him early Saturday.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Bond was set
at $2 million for a man accused of killing his 4-month-old daughter who was
found dead along a riverbank in Ohio
after authorities said he led them to the
body.
A Clermont County judge set the
bond Tuesday in Batavia for 24-yearCharles Crawford, who is charged with
aggravated murder in Kaylynn Crawford’s death. The director of the county
public defender’s ofﬁce appointed to
represent the Cincinnati man declined
to comment.
Loveland police say in court documents that Crawford called 911 on
Sunday indicating someone took the
baby from his car parked at a store
in the Cincinnati suburb. But they
arrested Crawford on Monday after he
made statements indicating “his direct
involvement” in Kaylynn’s death and

PUT-IN-BAY (AP) — A lightning
strike has closed the observation deck
at the top of Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial on South Bass
Island in Lake Erie.
The lightning damaged the control
system for the tower’s elevator Saturday
afternoon.
The Blade of Toledo reports that Barbara Fearon, the National Park Service’s
superintendent for the facility, says the
tower will remain closed until the elevator system is examined, tested, and
determined to be safe.
Fearon says the tower has systems to
handle the frequent lightning strikes it
receives but this was “a really strong
strike.”
The memorial commemorates Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s leading
an American ﬂeet to victory over the
British during the War of 1812.

Deal ‘em up! 18 trades made at deadline
By Ben Walker

Jonathan Lucroy got a
deal he liked, Carlos Beltran joined him in Texas
and Rich Hill also moved
Monday during an 18-swap
frenzy at the trade deadline.
Matt Moore, Francisco
Liriano and Joe Smith
found new homes, too, as
playoff contenders stocked
up for the stretch.
“That’s what we play for.

really good feeling.”
Monday was the busiest
deadline day since at least
1995, eclipsing the 15 deals
made on the ﬁnal day for
non-waiver trades in 2010
and 2015, according to
Major League Baseball.
Teams had until 4 p.m.
EDT to make trades without
waivers. From now, no player
can be dealt unless he goes
unclaimed by everyone else.
The AL West-leading
Rangers made two major
moves.
After Lucroy used his
limited no-trade clause to
block a deal to Cleveland,
the All-Star catcher was
sent to Texas.
“Now, moving on to the

Rangers let’s take this bad
boy to the ‘ship! Really
excited and can’t wait to
get after it!” he posted on
Twitter.
The 30-year-old Lucroy is
batting .299 with 13 homers
and 50 RBIs this season.
Texas also got Beltran,
a proven postseason star,
from the New York Yankees
for righty Dillon Tate, the
fourth overall pick in the
2015 amateur draft, and two
other pitching prospects.
“I think as a player, you
know that this moment
could happen. But when it
happens, it hits you,” Beltran said.

Buescher emerges
at Pocono for
1st career Cup win
LONG POND, Pa.
(AP) — Chris Buescher
sat in his Ford, hoping
that the fog would stick
over Pocono and the
cloud over the rookie’s
middling season would
start to lift.
Buescher idled in his
car, then stood with his
arms folded on pit road.
“I tried not to get my
hopes up,” he said.
Buescher emerged
from the fog to become
a surprising winner in
Monday’s shortened
Sprint Cup race at
Pocono Raceway. He
is now on the verge of
being in the mix for
NASCAR’s championship after not ﬁnishing
better than 14th all season before Monday.
Imagine a title push
that kicks off with Kyle
Busch, Jimmie Johnson
and little-known Buescher in the ﬁeld.
“The plan was to
always make the Chase,”
Buescher said. “We’re
that much closer now.”
He’s not there yet.
Buescher is six points
behind David Ragan for
30th to reach the cutoff
needed to become eligible for the Chase for
the Sprint Cup championship.
Buescher, who drives
for underfunded Front
Row Motorsports, was
the beneﬁciary on a rare
Monday race postponed
a day by rain. With
nasty weather punishing the track, NASCAR
called the red ﬂag with
22 laps left and parked
the cars on pit road.
Buescher was as much a

spectator in the No. 34
Ford as the few fans left
in the stands, though
NASCAR let drivers get
out of their cars after
about 10 minutes as
they waited out gloomy
conditions.
“I’m a little scared to
get out,” Buescher said.
No need. He was
declared the winner
after about an 80-minute delay. He was
doused with beer and
water in a makeshift
victory lane celebration
inside a garage stall,
his Ford covered on
rainy pit road instead of
bathed in confetti.
Brad Keselowski was
second, followed by
Regan Smith, Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart.
Jeff Gordon ﬁnished 27th
driving for the injured
Dale Earnhardt Jr.
In order to qualify
for the Chase, drivers
must rank 30th or better in points. Buescher
will need to ﬁnd a way
to climb higher over
Ragan in the ﬁnal ﬁve
races before the Chase
ﬁeld is set.
Buescher won twice
last season in the Xﬁnity Series and won the
series championship.
He will spend 2016 as
basically the fourth Jack
Roush driver because
of a shared technical
alliance between the
organizations.
He ﬁnished 30th or
worse 10 times this season. Ragan had Front
Row’s only victory 118
races ago in fall 2013 at
Talladega.

Cincinnati Reds’ Jay Bruce hits a go-ahead two-run home run off Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Daniel Mengden in the third inning
June 11 in Cincinnati. The New York Mets acquired the All-Star outfielder from the Reds on Monday for infielder Dilson Herrera and minor
league left-hander Max Wotell.

Mets acquire NL RBI leader Jay Bruce
NEW YORK (AP) — One year
later, the New York Mets ﬁnally
landed All-Star outﬁelder Jay
Bruce to boost a struggling lineup.
And now, he’ll provide protection
for Yoenis Cespedes rather than an
alternative to him.
Minutes before Monday’s trade
deadline, the third-place Mets
obtained Bruce from the Cincinnati
Reds for young inﬁelder Dilson
Herrera and minor league lefthander Max Wotell.
The 29-year-old Bruce, expected
to arrive Tuesday, was hitting .265
with 25 homers and a National
League-leading 80 RBIs. He made
the NL All-Star team this season
for the third time.
“This was an opportunity to deal
from a position of relative strength
in the system to acquire some
offense that we felt we needed,”
Mets general manager Sandy
Alderson said.
The moves follow last year’s
trade-deadline acquisition of
Cespedes, whose offensive spark
helped the Mets reach the World
Series for the ﬁrst time since 2000.
Before getting Cespedes from
Detroit for pitcher Michael Fulmer,
the Mets nearly ﬁnalized a deal
with Cincinnati for Bruce. When
talks fell through, New York soon
turned its attention to Cespedes.
“Look, it was an extraordinary
turnaround last year. All we can do
is try to acquire as many good players as we can to put ourselves in a
position to maybe have that magic
again,” Alderson said. “I do think,
given our situation right now and
the quality of players we have right
now otherwise in the clubhouse,
somebody like Jay Bruce can be a
catalyst for more productive performance out of the other players
that we have, especially sitting in

the middle of our order.”
The banged-up Mets began the
day with a .237 batting average,
lowest in the majors. They lost to
the Yankees 6-5 in 10 innings Monday night and dropped to 54-51,
leaving them 7 1/2 games behind
NL East-leading Washington and
2 1/2 games back for the league’s
second wild card.
Bruce has been a clutch hitter
this season, and New York is in
dire need of one. Dreadful with
runners in scoring position, the
Mets started the day ranked 13th
out of 15 NL teams in runs.
“I think he’ll make a big impact,”
manager Terry Collins said.
Bruce’s dangerous left-handed bat
should slot in nicely behind Cespedes
— when the right-handed slugger is
healthy enough to play. Hampered
by a strained right quadriceps that’s
been nagging him for weeks, Cespedes sat out Monday night for the
second consecutive game.
Bruce joins a crowded outﬁeld
that includes two other left-handed
hitters in Curtis Granderson
and Michael Conforto. Alderson
acknowledged that Bruce is “not an
absolute perfect ﬁt for us.”
“We start with the need for
offense and work from there,” the
GM said. “I think his presence
in the middle of our lineup will
change things.”
Bruce, however, is under team
control next season and thus provides another type of protection
for Cespedes, because the Cuban
star can opt out of his contract and
become a free agent again after this
year’s World Series.
“We would not have done the
deal without the extra year of
control,” Alderson said. “We were
not looking for a rental player,
certainly not looking to give up the

kind of talent we did for the next
two months.”
Bruce homered in ﬁve straight
games in late July, a career best. A
downside has been his career-long
penchant for following a torrid
streak with an incredibly cold one.
Bruce has a .249 career average
with 233 homers in nine major
league seasons. He is earning $12.5
million this year, and his contract
includes a $13 million team option
for 2017 with a $1 million buyout.
“It deﬁnitely shows that they’re
doing everything they can to help
us,” Mets second baseman Neil
Walker said.
New York clinched the NL East
title in Cincinnati last September
and returns for a three-game series
from Sept. 5-7.
Cincinnati is into its second year
of rebuilding, trading any highpriced veteran it can. The Reds
dealt starters Johnny Cueto and
Mike Leake, third baseman Todd
Frazier and closer Aroldis Chapman in the past year.
They tried to trade second
baseman Brandon Phillips to the
Nationals, but he blocked the deal.
They also had the framework of
a three-team deal in place that
would’ve sent Bruce to Toronto in
the offseason, but that fell through.
Herrera, 22, was once regarded
as the Mets’ future second baseman. He made his major league
debut in 2014 and hit .215 over 49
big league games in the ‘14 and ‘15
seasons. He was batting .276 with
13 homers and 55 RBIs this year at
Triple-A Las Vegas.
“We liked Dilson very much,”
Alderson said. “It’s not that our
estimation of Dilson has gone
down; we realize we have some
other options and seem to be wellcovered there.”

RT Ogbuehi starts
for Bengals a
year after top pick
CINCINNATI (AP) —
Cedric Ogbuehi breaks
the huddle with Cincinnati’s starting offense and
heads for the right side of
the line.
He’s trying to make up
for a year of lost time.
The Bengals’ ﬁrst pick
in the 2015 draft has
moved up to starting
right tackle.
Cincinnati’s decision to
take Ogbuehi (oh-BWAY’hee) with the 21st overall
pick last year was a big
surprise — he’d suffered
a signiﬁcant knee injury
only four months earlier.
They projected him as
their starter this year,
and things are going as
planned.
“It was tough, but I’m
ready for the challenge
this year, ready to show
why they got me, and
show I’m a great player,”
Ogbuehi said.
Ogbuehi represents
the biggest change in the
offense.
He takes over for Andre
Smith, who was allowed
to leave as a free agent.
Ogbuehi was considered one of the top tackles available in the draft
until he tore the ACL
in his right knee during
Texas A&amp;M’s game in the
Liberty Bowl.
Doctors projected it
would take most of a year
for him to recover.
The Bengals drafted
him in the ﬁrst round
anyway, relying on projections that the knee would
fully heal and he’d be
ready to start this season.
The 6-foot-5, 310-pound
linemen appeared in six
games at the end of last
season, getting on the
ﬁeld as an extra blocker
on some plays.
He was given the spot
at right tackle when training camp opened last
week.
“I have to earn it, obviously, but it’s my job,” he
said. “My athleticism, I

would say, is rare, unique.
I can block a lot of different players.”
For now, he’s got to
learn the ﬁner points of
blocking some of the best
pass rushers in the NFL.
“He has every talent
and ability you need to be
a great offensive tackle,”
left tackle Andrew Whitworth said. “But the reality is that there’s probably
been a lot of guys over
time that have had that.
It’s going to be putting
his head down and working through the ups and
downs of playing that
position and keeping that
mentality and that conﬁdence that he can do it.”
Ogbuehi is lined up
against end Carlos Dunlap during practice, facing
a player who made the
Pro Bowl last season after
getting 13½ sacks.
Former Bengals right
tackle Willie Anderson,
who is helping coach
linemen during camp,
considers that a beneﬁt
for Ogbuehi.
“You’ll be surprised at
how much that helps guys
out, facing a Pro Bowler
every day,” Anderson
said. “It gives them something to work on. You’re
not just working against
some scrub guy. You’re
working against topnotch guys every day.”
Notes: A storm pushed
back the start of the
afternoon practice and
prompted the team to
move from the public
grass ﬁelds to inside Paul
Brown Stadium, which
has artiﬁcial turf. Fans
weren’t allowed inside.
The Bengals don’t have
a covered ﬁeld. … WR
James Wright was cleared
for practice for the ﬁrst
time since 2014, when he
suffered a knee injury as
a rookie. He needed all
of last season to rehab. “I
can’t even remember, it
was so long,” Wright said.
“It felt like forever.”

Pryor’s move from QB to WR complete
BEREA (AP) — Racing downﬁeld after cruising past the cornerback, Terrelle Pryor dove forward
and grasped the ball with his ﬁngertips as he fell to the turf.
Fans watching at training camp
cheered the 50-yard reception, as
Pryor got up from the ground and
spiked the ball to the turf, before
jogging back downﬁeld and bumping chests with Browns quarterback Robert Grifﬁn III.
The excitement emanating from
Pryor was evident, as it has been
for entirety of his second training
camp with the Browns.
After a year spent struggling
with the transition from passer to
pass-catcher, he’s ﬁnally starting to
feel like a real wide receiver.
“To actually be out there battling with corners and being able
to beat corners man to man and
getting off press pretty easy now.
… I’m very excited,” Pryor said.
“This game is the love of my life.”
Pryor initially made the move
from quarterback to receiver in
training camp with Cleveland a
year ago, but had a nagging hamstring strain that kept him out of

maintained a good relationship as
they met again with the Bengals.
Now together for the third time
in Cleveland, Pryor and Jackson
are providing help to each other.
In Pryor, Jackson has a player
that understands his offense and
can teach it to Cleveland’s group
of receivers that includes ﬁrstround pick Corey Coleman and the
recently reinstated Josh Gordon.
“Sometimes, he’ll just tell me,
‘Terrelle, shut up. Don’t answer
this,’” Pryor said of Jackson. “It’s
because I know this stuff pretty
good. I’m excited just to get the
guys sped up, or if the guys have
any questions, I’m here to help in
any way.”
In Jackson, Pryor has a coach
who believes in his talent and
views him as a potentially big
piece of the Browns’ offense this
season.
“There are a lot of different
things that we’ll do with Terrelle
because I think he’s very talented,”
Jackson said. “We’ll just continue
to ﬁnd different ways to have him
make a difference on our offensive
football team.”

all but one exhibition game.
The Browns added Pryor to the
53-man roster out of camp, but cut
him before the team’s ﬁrst regularseason game, only to bring him back
for the ﬁnal ﬁve games of the season.
After the roller-coaster season,
Pryor spent time this summer
working on his skills as a wide
receiver with former Vikings star
Randy Moss and current Browns
quarterback Josh McCown in
Charlotte, N.C.
“Terrelle came down there and
worked his tail off,” McCown said.
“He’s turning over every rock to
make sure he can ﬁnd a way to get
himself better and it’s a hats-off
and a credit to him because he
wants it.”
From what Pryor has shown
thus far in camp, Browns coach
Hue Jackson thinks the training
has paid off.
“He made the transition from
quarterback to receiver,” Jackson
said. “He’s handled it very well. I’m
very proud of what he’s doing.”
As head coach of the Raiders in
2011, Jackson drafted Pryor —
then a quarterback — and the two

Steelers WR Brown wants contract, but won’t hold out
LATROBE, Pa. (AP) —
Antonio Brown made it clear
that he wants a new contract,
but never considered holding
out despite greatly outperforming his current deal with the
Pittsburgh Steelers.
The wide receiver spoke
about his contract status for
the ﬁrst time on Sunday following the Steelers’ ﬁrst padded
training camp practice at St.
Vincent College. Brown insisted he’s focused on preparing
for the upcoming season and
not his contract situation.
“The Rooney family has been
ﬁrst class with me,” Brown
said. “I would never hold out.
It’s not a good representation
towards people who have been
taking care of me.
“I’m a ﬁrst-class guy … and
the ﬁrst way of getting better
is showing up. So I’m always
going to show up, do my part
and be ready to go.”

Brown currently has two
years left on his current contract, which expires in 2017.
He established franchise
records by recording at least
120 receptions and 1,600
receiving yards in consecutive seasons. The 28-year-old
Brown also set NFL records,
becoming the ﬁrst player in
league history with 526 receptions in his ﬁrst six years and
the ﬁrst to catch at least 125
passes in consecutive seasons.
He believes that kind of production deserves a reward.
“I know you have to take care
of your guys,” Brown said. “If a
guy underperforms, you get rid
of him. If a guy over performs,
you take care of him. That’s the
kind of business we’re in.”
Brown said his agent Drew
Rosenhaus is in talks with the
team and he hopes an agreement can be reached. The
Steelers historically do not give

players new contracts until
there is one year remaining.
The team has said it will only
negotiate with quarterbacks
when there are two years left
on a contract.
Brown currently makes an
average of $8.3 million, less
than the $14 million average
earned by the top ﬁve receivers
in the league. Last season, the
Steelers paid Brown $2 million
of future salary to appease the
star receiver.
Brown didn’t indicate if he
would be satisﬁed with another
restructured deal.
“It’s solely up to my agent to
handle that part,” said Brown,
who signed a ﬁve-year, $42.5
million deal in 2012, after his
second NFL season.
“I don’t know what they can
do. I know there’s a lot of possibilities. Right now, I’m focused
on getting better each day and
bettering my game.”

If Brown is upset about his
contract, it certainly doesn’t
show. Brown, who appeared
on “Dancing with the Stars”
during the offseason, arrived
at training camp in a customwrapped black-and-gold RollsRoyce and regularly acknowledges fans with a wave and a
smile during practice.
“I love camp because you get
a chance to interact with fans,
and I get to compete against
other guys,” Brown said. “It’s
the beginning of the journey. It
gets you ready for the season.”
Brown, a two-time All-Pro
and four-time Pro Bowler, said
he’s trying to grow in all areas
and seeks continued improvement even after he set the NFL
record for most receptions in
any three consecutive seasons.
He won’t have Martavis Bryant on the opposite side after
the talented wide receiver was
suspended one year because he

violated the league’s drug policy. Star running back Le’Veon
Bell could also sit out four
games after missing multiple
drug tests.
It could affect the team’s
Super Bowl aspirations, but
Brown isn’t worried.
“In the course of the year,
there’s always going to be
adversity,” said Brown, who
missed the Steelers’ January
playoff loss to Denver with a
concussion. “The only thing
we can control is how we deal
with it.”
That’s the way he’s handling
his contract situation, too.
“I could get into contract
talk, but that’s not my focus,”
Brown said. “I’m conﬁdent
in the Rooney family and the
Pittsburgh Steelers in getting
something done. Right now,
I’m just focused on the season,
working on my game and continuing to get better.”

USA basketball Holding onto baton is job No. 1
tops Nigeria
in last tuneup
HOUSTON (AP) —
There were no bumps on
this road to Rio.
Next up for the U.S.
Olympic men’s basketball
team is the trip to Brazil,
where the Americans think
they can play even better
now that they’re done having to go place to place.
“As a team, I think
you’re going to see a much
different team over there,”
Carmelo Anthony said.
Anthony scored 19
points and the U.S.
wrapped up its unbeaten
exhibition tour with a 11066 victory over Nigeria on
Monday night.
The Americans weren’t
quite as potent this time
but were dominant defensively after pouring on the
points in a record-setting
romp over the Nigerians
four years ago. They forced
the African champions to
miss their ﬁrst 22 3-point
shots and held them to 4
for 29 behind the arc.
Klay Thompson had 17
points and Kevin Durant
added 14 for the U.S.,
which went 5-0 and wasn’t
tested during its easy ﬁvecity, pre-Olympic schedule.
The U.S. men and women
— who arrived in Houston earlier Monday and
attended the game — are
scheduled to ﬂy Tuesday
night to Rio de Janeiro,
where both will be favored
to repeat as Olympic basketball champions.
“We leave tomorrow

night and then it’s off,
hopefully, to a gold medal,”
U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
The men’s team will
have to wait until it gets
there for a close game —
if one comes at all. The
Americans previously
defeated Argentina, China
twice and Venezuela by
an average of 42.8 points,
scoring 101 per game.
They play the Chinese
again to open Olympic
play on Aug. 6 and also
meet Venezuela again.
This one was only close
for a few minutes, perhaps
a little longer than the
Americans’ 156-73 victory
in the 2012 Olympics,
when Anthony set U.S.
records by scoring 37
points and going 10 for 12
from 3-point range in just
14 minutes. He was 0 for
6 beyond the arc this time
but scored nine points in
the third quarter, when
the lead ballooned to 43
points.
The Americans rang
up the most points ever
scored in an Olympic
game in the London contest, but Nigeria started
better this time. Ben
Uzoh brought the players
on the Nigerian bench
to their feet with a dunk
over DeAndre Jordan
in the ﬁrst quarter, but
the Americans gradually
pulled away late in the
period and kept increasing
the lead from there.

Veteran crew chief Bob Osborne gambled with the
decision to keep Buescher on the track while others
made pit stops with 28 laps left. Once the cars were
halted, Buescher and his crew rooted for the rain
and fog to stick around. At one point, the 23-year-old
Buescher, a former ARCA champion, rested against
a fence and was swarmed by fans and photographers
wanting a picture before the race was even called.
“I’m trying to remember every rain dance I’ve ever
learned,” he said in the car.
Buescher is now on the brink of becoming the ﬁrst
Chase bracket buster. Led by four-time winners Busch
and Keselowski, there are 11 slots seemingly set for
race winners, and Buescher would make 12. Jamie
McMurray, Chase Elliott, Austin Dillon, Ryan Newman, and Kyle Larson are among the four winless
drivers battling for the ﬁnal four spots.
“This is going to change our whole year right here,”
Buescher said.
Drivers with a Chase spot secured enjoyed Buescher’s feel-good victory that broke up the recent
Toyota hot streak.
“I told him, ‘If I couldn’t win, it was cool to see him
win,’” Keselowski said.
NASCAR defended dragging out the decision to call
the race, even as severe storms hit a track where a fan
was killed by a lightning strike in 2012.
“We never lost the track,” said Steve O’Donnell,
NASCAR’s chief racing development ofﬁcer. “I think
most NASCAR fans want to see a complete race.”

PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas
(AP) — The smartest
minds in American sprinting have spent years
trying to solve the riddle
of why, as often as not,
U.S. relay teams have
struggled so mightily to
get the baton around the
track when the stakes are
highest.
Leave it to the Jamaican, Usain Bolt, to come
up with what might be the
most plausible answer:
“They tend to panic.”
The American sprinters
are gathered this week
at an Olympic training
camp outside of Houston,
once again trying to create chemistry and ﬁnd
answers to a problem that
never really goes away.
Eight times since
1995, the American
men have either been
disqualiﬁed or failed to
get the baton around the
track at the Olympics or
world championships.
The women, who set the
world record in the 4x100
at the London Games,
aren’t immune to the butterﬁngers, either. They’ve
mishandled the exchange
in two of the last three
Olympics. And at last
year’s world championships, in the 4x400, where
the pass shouldn’t be a big
deal, a bobble cost them
the gold.
The key to changing
that dynamic: “I think
just being relaxed,” said
Tyson Gay, who helped
the Americans get the
baton around four years
ago, only to cost them the
silver medal because of
a doping violation. “No
pressure, just relax. That’s
all I think.”
If only it were that
simple.
In a sport built on individual accomplishments,
the relay is that singular
opportunity for the country that routinely wins the
most medals in track to
show that it can, in fact,

the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

function like a team.
Since 2008, that pressure has been coupled
with the fact that Jamaica
— while not as deep
across the entire scope of
track and ﬁeld — has the
fastest man on Earth.
“When you’ve got
Michael Rodgers standing in the third relay zone
and Jamaica and us are
shoulder to shoulder and
he’s looking at Usain Bolt
on the anchor leg, that’s
going to impact your
athletic performance,”
said Duffy Mahoney, chief
of sport performance for
USA Track and Field.
Last year at world
championships, Gay and
Rodgers mishandled the
ﬁnal handoff and the
exchange came outside
the legal passing zone. It
disqualiﬁed the Americans and sent Bolt on

Trades

Twice before in his career, Beltran was traded in midseason to a
team with playoff hopes. Like the
Rangers, Beltran has been to the
World Series but never won the
crown.
The Yankees kept reworking
their roster, trying to turn the
best parts of a .500 team into a
bright future. They had already
traded relief aces Aroldis Chapman and Andrew Miller leading
up to the deadline.
“We’re kind of in unfamiliar
territory with the Yankees,” ﬁrst
baseman Mark Teixeira said.
“That’s life. I mean, we’ve had a
nice run the last eight years,” he
said.

what could’ve been a jog
to the ﬁnish line for the
gold.
Asked to explain Jamaica’s baton strategy, Bolt
said there was no magic
to it.
“We know the key thing
is just to get the baton
around,” he said. “Because
with the U.S., we know we
always have the best team,
and they tend to panic.
Pressure gets to them
sometimes.”
Bolt doesn’t have to be
on the track for things to
go bad.
In 2004, then again in
2008, the U.S. women
mishandled the baton in
the 4x100. The 2008 miss,
combined with a botched
exchange between Gay
and Darvis Patton in the
men’s race, contributed to
the United States being
shut out of gold medals

As always, relievers were in
demand.
The Giants aimed to bolster
a shaky bullpen by getting Will
Smith from Milwaukee, Boston
got Fernando Abad from Minnesota and the NL Central-leading
Cubs obtained sidearming righty
Joe Smith from the Angels.
The Cubs previously got lefties
Chapman and Mike Montgomery
for their bullpen.
“That was an area we thought
we could make some changes,”
general manager Jed Hoyer said.
“Adding a closer, a left-hander and
then adding a guy like Smith who
can be a right-handed specialist,
we felt like those were areas that
would improve our team and
improve the mix of our bullpen.”
Along with Jay Bruce, the Mets
also got pitcher Jon Niese, who
spent his ﬁrst eight years in New
York, from Pittsburgh for reliever

in all six sprint races for
the ﬁrst time in Olympic
history. That led to a
top-to-bottom overhaul of
the way the U.S. handles
relay training, which
now requires sprinters to
attend training camps and
participate in a number
of relays before the Olympics.
Carl Lewis, who won
relay gold in 1984 and
1992 (he wasn’t on the
team that got DQ’d for
passing outside the zone
in the 1988 qualifying
heats), has been one of
the most outspoken critics of the U.S. team. He
says there’s too much
politics involved in who
gets coaching assignments and who gets to
run in the relays, and not
enough time devoted to
perfecting the art of the
baton pass.
“I’ve been to (junior)
nationals, I’ve been to
(junior) Hershey’s meets,
I’ve never seen a baton hit
the ground,” Lewis said in
March. “What they need
to do is get a retired college coach who’s going to
tell the agents to kiss off,
and tell the athletes to get
in line and know how to
put together a relay.”
In charge of the relay
operation this year is
Dennis Mitchell, who has
relay gold and silver from
1992 and 1996, but whose
appointment to that role
was controversial. Mitchell served a two-year doping ban and was caught
up with Trevor Graham,
Marion Jones and the
BALCO doping scandal.
What, in Mitchell’s
mind, does it take for a
perfect relay exchange?
“What doesn’t it take?”
he said. “The girls are
running at anywhere from
10 to 13 miles an hour,
the guys are somewhere
around 20. So there’s a
lot of moving parts that
happen when you’re going
through a zone.”

Antonio Bastardo.
The contending Los Angeles
Dodgers fortiﬁed their rotation
by getting Rich Hill along with
outﬁelder Josh Reddick from Oakland for three pitching prospects.
Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw
is on the disabled list with back
trouble, and they don’t know when
he’ll be back. The 36-year-old Hill
is 9-3 with a 2.25 ERA in 14 starts
and on the DL because of a blister
on the middle ﬁnger of his throwing hand that hasn’t healed.
Toronto was busy, making three
deals. A day after falling out of
the AL East lead, they got Liriano
from Pittsburgh.
“Where he’s been and what he’s
accomplished his entire career, we
feel like gives us a chance to have
someone who could be pitching in
Game 2, 3 or 4 of a World Series
run,” Blue Jays general manager
Ross Atkins said.
