Animal outreach aims to spruce up Meigs Shelter MEIGS COUNTY — The Meigs County Dog Shelter will be getting spruced up on Saturday. As the summer approaches with kennels in poor condition, a leaky roof with no insulation and no hot water to use for cleaning, the shelter is in need of a spruce up. When the shelter is filled, dogs are packed together in one of the few runs available which increases the frequency of dog fights and spread of infectious, deadly diseases. Rescue Me Ohio, a virtual-based animal outreach organization with volunteers throughout the state, recognized the disparity of the situation and is gathering the supplies and manpower to spruce up the shelter on May 4. “Rescue Me Ohio was formed to assist all aspects of animal welfare and we are very excited to have the opportunity to work with the shelter staff and local government authorities to fix up the Meigs County Dog Shelter,” says Christine Shepard, Co-Director and Legal Counsel of Rescue Me Ohio, a Cuyahoga Falls resident. “Our Helping Hands Campaign provides assistance to underfunded shelters in need of cleaning and repair. While it can be easy to look down upon shelters which may not have the most resources, Rescue Me Ohio replaces that criticism with support and tries to get the community involved.” “We are overwhelmed by the welcome we are already receiv- ing from current shelter volunteers and Meigs County Commissioners,” says Kristen Summers, Events Manager at Rescue Me Ohio. Volunteers will travel to the shelter on May 4, and will paint the floors and walls of the facility, fix drainage problems, install a hot-water tank and repair the dog kennel area, among other repair projects. Rescue Me Ohio also intends to bring most dogs at the facility at the time to other rescues for better opportunities of finding a forever home. If you would like to assist in some way, donations and volunteers are still needed. For more information, please contact Rescue Me Ohio at events@rescuemeohio.org.

Powell, representing the Chester-Shade Historical Association, told the story of Confederate General John Hunt Morgan who moved troops from Kentucky to Indiana and across Ohio in their quest to reach the ford at Buffington Island where they could cross the Ohio River. Reaching the Portland community they were met with Union forces and the Battle of Buffington Island followed resulting in the defeat of the Confederate cavalry. The commemoration will include a memorial service in remembrance of those who died in that battle. It will feature battle reenactments, lifestyle demonstrations, tours of the route Morgan and his men traveled, and will include many Civil War exhibits at the museums. She also talked about the Heritage Trail and the interpretive markers which are being placed in Meigs County to mark the trail Morgan and his cavalry of about 2,000 men traveled. Powell noted that Chester Shade Days will take place on July 20 and will feature a round table discussion about the Civil War, the Ohio State Harmonica Contest, and conclude with the ball. She gave each member a copy of the 2013 Meigs County Visitors Guide. In appreciation for her presentation, Gay Perrin presented Powell with a plant. The meeting opened with devotions by Maxine Whitehead who read “Just for Today” and “God’s Answer.” Prayer preceded the luncheon served by the church women. Cards were signed for Kathleen Scott, Masrtha Vennari, and Becky Zurcher for the loss of her mother. Reports were given by Janice Weber, secretary, and Bil Downie, treasurer. Members provided paper products and personal care items for the women’s shelter, and volunteer hours were acknowledged and members encouraged to continue their work.

Italy’s new government wins first confidence vote ROME (AP) — Italy’s new government easily passed its first confirmation vote Monday in Parliament after Premier Enrico Letta made concessions to his uneasy coalition allies, promising to ease part of a slate of austerity measures that have weighed on Italians impatient at the slow pace of economic recovery. While pledging the country will do what the eurozone wants to improve its public finances and debt problem, the center-left leader has to placate his tense two-day-old coalition, including former premier Silvio Berlusconi’s conservatives, whose support he needs for confirmation. The lower house of Parliament, the Chamber of Deputies, approved his fledgling government by a vote of 453 to 153. The government faces the second mandatory confidence vote of confirmation in the Senate on Tuesday afternoon. Bending in part to a key Berlusconi campaign promise, Letta said his government will immediately suspend an unpopular tax on primary residences due in June and make it fairer to less affluent taxpayers. He also pledged not to raise the sales tax and to reduce some payroll taxes. “Reducing taxes is a priority,” Letta said, promising he would “pinpoint a strategy to revive growth without interfering with the process to heal finances.” The European Union has insisted on rigorous austerity to heal Italy’s finances, but the public’s patience has been tried by spending cuts and higher taxes. Voters across the continent have been rebelling against governments that have imposed such measures. While Letta stressed the urgency of reducing the tax burden on hom- eowners, consumers and businesses, he didn’t say how he planned to make up for the reduced revenues. He might have to resort to more spending cuts, which could ultimately sharpen an already harsh part of the austerity agendas. Markets appeared pleased over Letta’s brand new government. Italy’s stock market was trading up some 2.2 percent at the market’s close, while the country’s borrowing costs on its 10-year bonds dropped below 4 percent for the first time since 2010. The failure of Letta’s party to win both chambers in the February election left the nation in political paralysis until he agreed to a deal on Saturday with Berlusconi. Berlusconi had demanded that the new government honor his No. 1 campaign promise to voters — abolishing the property tax on primary residences and refunding what Italians paid in the tax last year. Letta didn’t say if last year’s property tax payments would be refunded, but a top Berlusconi aide immediately shouted victory and insisted it would be. “If Letta wants the PDL votes, this is the condition posed in a coalition government,” an exultant Brunetta told state TV, referring to the initials of Berlusconi’s party. Standard & Poor’s rating services said that it wasn’t clear yet whether the government can put growth reforms in place, but said Letta’s initial comments “suggest an intention to slow, but not to reverse” the pace of austerity. Intent on reassuring eurozone governments and European Union officials that despite his demanding coalition partners, Italy’s would stay the course of economic reform, Letta will soon visit major European capitals. He begins in Berlin on Tuesday, assuming his government wins the Senate confidence vote. He’ll also visit Paris and Brussels to give, as he put it, a “sign that this is a European and a proEurope government.” He vowed to keep the sales tax from rising to 22 percent from 21 percent in July, as predecessor Mario Monti’s government had planned. Italy’s business sector is worried the higher tax would discourage consumers from buying everything from washing machines to new clothing. The new premier also pledged to reduce payroll taxes for businesses hiring the young or those currently on temporary work contracts. Italy’s central bank said Monday that Italian companies were suffering ever more as loans dry up, with banks reluctant to make risky deals. Italians are impatient after 18 months of austerity budget, pension reform and new taxes under Monti to see jobs return and the small and medium firms that power the economy bounce back. Letta denounced the “anger and conflict” that the fiveyear economic slump has triggered. On Sunday, an unemployed man shot and wounded two police officers Sunday in a crowded square outside the prime minister’s office at the same time the government was being sworn in elsewhere in the capital. The premier indicated his impatience with the political class’ failure to enact reforms. He indicated that he would give this legislature 18 months to make serious inroads or he might throw in the towel. However, virtually nobody expects the new government to last anywhere near Parliament’s five-year term. Gay Catholic school teacher fights firing (AP) — A gay teacher who said she was fired by an Ohio Catholic school after her mother’s published obituary included the name of her partner is fighting to get her job back. Carla Hale, 57, said she was told she was being let go because her relationship is against teachings of the church. She plans to file a complaint this week with the city of Columbus, which prohibits firings based on sexual orientation, her attorney said Monday. She already filed a grievance that is now in the hands of a union representing teachers in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Columbus. Some current and former students have rallied behind the physical education teacher, staging a protest outside the diocese headquarters and starting an online petition that has collected about 100,000 supporters. Hale said she was fired during Holy Week in March after an anonymous letter sent to school administrators drew attention to the obituary published in The Columbus Dispatch. A copy of the letter provided by her attorney was signed “a concerned parent.” “My daughter came home and told me that one of the gym teacher’s mother had died,” the let- ter said. “She asked me to pray for her. When we looked in the obituaries, I was shocked by what I saw. It had her teacher’s name and that of her ‘spouse’ listed. It was two females!” Hale, who is Methodist, was informed about two weeks after her mother’s death that the school was investigating, but she never had a chance to discuss it with school leaders, said attorney Thomas Tootle. Hale, who had spent 19 years teaching at Bishop Watterson High School, said the decision to acknowledge her partner was not immoral. “It’s kind of baffling that someone would take an obituary and use it, to me, in such a mean-spirited manner,” Hale said at a news conference last week. The Diocese of Columbus would not comment directly about the firing, but it said school employees can’t go against teachings of the church. “All Catholic school personnel at the outset of their employment agree that they will abide by the rules, regulations and policies of the Catholic Diocese, including respecting the moral values advanced by the teachings of Christ,” the diocese said in a statement. Hale’s attorney said he will file a complaint Tues- day with a Columbus community relations board, arguing that the firing violates the city ordinance on employers discriminating based on sexual orientation. Another option is a wrongful termination lawsuit, Tootle said. He said some courts have allowed religious groups exemptions to similar discrimination laws, but he thinks the case is similar to one in Cincinnati where a teacher challenged her firing by the archdiocese over her use of artificial insemination to become pregnant. A federal judge has allowed that lawsuit to continue. ANNUAL SOCCER SHOOT! sponsored by: Elks Lodge #107 & The University of Rio Grande Soccer Program Saturday, May 4th 9am - noon O.O. McIntyre Park OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — A Mississippi man charged with making a deadly poison sent to President Barack Obama and others was ordered held without bond until a hearing later this week when prosecutors are expected to describe what evidence they have against him James Everett Dutschke made a brief appearance Monday in federal court wearing an orange jumpsuit with his hands shackled. Authorities spent several days last week searching Dutschke’s home and former business but have said very little about the suspect beyond a news release announcing the charge of making and possessing ricin over the weekend. Dutschke’s arrest early Saturday capped a week in which investigators initially zeroed in on a rival of Dutschke’s, then decided they had the wrong man. Dutschke (pronounced DUHS’-kee) has denied involvement in the mailing of the letters, saying he’s a patriot with no grudges against anyone. The 41-year-old suspect said little during his hearing other than answering affirmatively to the judge’s questions about whether he understood the charges against him. The judge ordered Dutschke to remain jailed until a preliminary and detention hearing scheduled for Thursday. More details are likely to emerge at that hearing, when prosecutors have to show they have enough evidence to hold him. An attorney from the public defender’s office appointed to represent Dutschke declined to comment after Monday’s hearing. Another attorney of Dutschke’s, Lori Nail Basham, said she will continue to represent him in other matters but not the federal case. Dutschke’s house, business and vehicles in Tupelo, Miss., were searched last week, often by crews in hazardous materials suits, and he had been under surveillance. He faces up to life in prison if convicted. A news release from federal authorities said Dutschke was charged with “knowingly developing, producing, stockpiling, transferring, acquiring, retaining and possessing a biological agent, toxin and delivery system, for use as a weapon, to wit: ricin.” He already had legal problems. Earlier this month, he pleaded not guilty in state court to two child molestation charges involving three girls younger than 16, at least one of whom was a student at his martial arts studio. He also was appealing a conviction on a different charge of indecent exposure. He told The Associated Press last week that his lawyer told him not to comment on those cases. The letters, which tests showed were tainted with ricin, were sent April 8 to Obama, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi and Mississippi judge Sadie Holland. The first suspect accused by the FBI was Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, an Elvis impersonator. He was arrested on April 17 at his Corinth, Miss., home, but the charges were dropped six days later and Curtis, who says he was framed, was released from jail. The focus then turned to Dutschke, who has ties to the former suspect and the judge. Earlier in the week, as investigators searched his primary residence in Tupelo, Dutschke told the AP, “I don’t know how much more of this I can take.” “I’m a patriotic American. I don’t have any grudges against anybody. … I did not send the letters,” Dutschke said. Curtis’ attorney, Christi McCoy, said Saturday: “We are relieved but also saddened. This crime is nothing short of diabolical. I have seen a lot of meanness in the past two decades, but this stops me in my tracks.” Some of the language in the letters was similar to posts on Curtis’ Facebook page and they were signed, “I am KC and I approve this message.” Curtis often used a similar online signoff. Dutschke and Curtis were acquainted. Curtis said they had talked about possibly publishing a book on a conspiracy that Curtis insists he has uncovered to sell body parts on a black market. But he said they later had a feud. Curtis’ attorneys have said they believe their client was set up. An FBI agent testified that no evidence of ricin was found in searches of Curtis’ home. Curtis attorney Hal Neilson said the defense gave authorities a list of people who may have had a reason to hurt Curtis and Dutschke’s came up. Judge Holland also is a common link between the two men, and both know Wicker. Dutschke’s MySpace page has several pictures with him and Wicker at what appear to be campaign events. Holland was the presiding judge in a 2004 case in which Curtis was accused of assaulting a Tupelo attorney a year earlier. Holland sentenced him to six months in the county jail. He served only part of the sentence, according to his brother. Holland’s family has had political skirmishes with Dutschke. Her son, Steve Holland, a Democratic state representative, said he thinks his mother’s only encounter with Dutschke was at a rally in the town of Verona in 2007, when Dutschke ran as a Republican against Steve Holland. Holland said his mother confronted Dutschke after he made a derogatory speech about the Holland family. She demanded that he apologize, which Holland says he did. Dutschke said Steve Holland exaggerated the incident, and that he has no problem with Sadie Holland. “Everybody loves Sadie, including me,” he said. BURIED in CREDIT CARDDEBT?

That was the least of his problems. Serrano claims he’s been harassed, micromanaged and eventually transferred to a different precinct and put on the overnight shift. “It hasn’t been a picnic,” he said in an interview this week. “They have their methods of dealing with someone like me.” Serrano and other whistle-blowers took the stand in a civil rights case challenging some of the 5 million streets stops made by police in the past decade using a tactic known as stop and frisk. They believe illegal quotas are behind some wrongful stops of black and Hispanic men. “A lot of people told me not to come forward because of what would happen — they said the department would come after me,” Serrano said. “But I’ve been thinking about it since 2007. I felt I couldn’t keep quiet.” Several other officers and police brass testified to the opposite: They say there are no quotas. Most officers follow the letter of the law, and low-performing cops like Serrano are lazy malcontents who make the city less safe. Under NYPD policy, officers are required to report corruption without fear of retribution to the internal affairs bureau, which investigates the claims. But starting with legendary whistle-blower Frank Serpico in the 1970s, corruption scandals large and small have exposed a clannish culture that critics say encourages police officers to turn a blind eye to wrongdo- ing and never question authority — or else face harassment by peers and punishment by superiors. As a plainclothes officer, Serpico was labeled a traitor for refusing payoffs and reporting corruption. On Feb. 3, 1971, he was shot in the face during a drug raid; he says other officers purposely failed to back him up. He recovered and testified before the Knapp Commission — a story etched in popular culture by a hit movie starring Al Pacino. In the early 1990s, an internal affairs investigator who pursued drug-dealing officers was blackballed by his commanders before an independent investigation by the Mollen Commission proved him right. And the 1997 police assault of Abner Louima resulted in charges against officers who kept quiet because of a so-called blue wall of silence — an unspoken code among the rank-and-file to never “rat” on each other. “Nothing’s changed,” the 76-year-old Serpico said in a recent phone interview when asked about the current crop of whistle-blowers. “It’s the same old crap — kill the messenger.” In the ongoing federal trial over stop and frisk, lawyers for men who have sued police are seeking to show a disproportionate number of black and Hispanic men are being wrongly stopped in part because officers are under too much pressure to keep enforcement numbers up. Serrano, along with Officers Adhyl Polanco and Adrian Schoolcraft secretly recorded hours of patrol briefings, meetings with bosses and encounters on the streets that they say show they were being targeted by overzealous officials bent on making their precincts look good. The recordings were played at trial. Both Serrano and Polanco said they made stops they didn’t think were right as a result.

He remains suspended. Polanco was suspended with pay for years after internal affairs officers brought charges of filing false arrest paperwork; he says the charges came because he detailed a list of complaints to internal affairs. Serrano testified that he received poor evaluations, was denied vacation days and was forced to work overtime as punishment because he tallied too few arrests and stop-and-frisk reports. “There’s a whole bunch of things they do, but they’re minor,” Serrano said. “But when you put it all together, it becomes a hostile work environment.” For example, he says, he never saw his commanding officer until word got out about his quota allegations — then the official was personally checking Serrano’s shift paperwork. He says he was forced to drive around with a sergeant and issue summonses and stop people until he brought up his numbers. Even after his numbers improved, his evaluations didn’t. And he claimed he was forced to come in during a massive snowstorm even though he was nearly in a car accident. PITTSBURGH — The Environmental Protection Agency has dramatically lowered its estimate of how much of a potent heat-trapping gas leaks during natural gas production, in a shift with major implications for a debate that has divided environmentalists: Does the recent boom in fracking help or hurt the fight against climate change? Oil and gas drilling companies had pushed for the change, but there have been differing scientific estimates of the amount of methane that leaks from wells, pipelines and other facilities during production and delivery. Methane is the main component of natural gas. The new EPA data is “kind of an earthquake” in the debate over drilling, said Michael Shellenberger, the president of the Breakthrough Institute, an environmental group based in Oakland, Calif. “This is great news for anybody concerned about the climate and strong proof that existing technologies can be deployed to reduce methane leaks.” The scope of the EPA’s revision was vast. In a mid-April report on greenhouse emissions, the agency now says that tighter pollution controls instituted by the industry resulted in an average annual decrease of 41.6 million metric tons of methane emissions from 1990 through 2010, or more than 850 million metric tons overall. That’s about a 20 percent reduction from previous estimates. The agency converts the methane emissions into their equivalent in carbon dioxide, following standard scientific practice. The EPA revisions came even though natural gas production has grown by nearly 40 percent since 1990. The industry has boomed in recent years, thanks to a stunning expansion of drilling in previously untapped areas because of the use of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, which injects sand, water and chemicals to break apart rock and free the gas inside. Experts on both sides of the debate say the leaks can be controlled by fixes such as better gaskets, maintenance and monitoring. Such fixes are also thought to be costeffective, since the industry ends up with more product to sell. “That is money going up into the air,” said Roger Pielke Jr., a professor of environmental studies at the University of Colorado, adding he isn’t surprised the EPA’s new data show more widespread use of pollution control equipment. Pielke noted that the success of the pollution controls also means that the industry “probably can go further” in reducing leaks. Representatives of the oil and gas industry said the EPA revisions show emissions from the fracking boom can be managed. “The methane ‘leak’ claim just got a lot Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

In a separate blog post, Everley predicted future reductions, too. “As technologies continue to improve, it’s hard to imagine those methane numbers going anywhere but down as we eagerly await the next installment of this EPA report,” Everley wrote. One leading environmentalist argued the EPA revisions don’t change the bigger picture. “We need a dramatic shift off carbonbased fuel: coal, oil and also gas,” Bill McKibbern, the founder of 350.org, wrote in an email to The Associated Press. “Natural gas provides at best a kind of fad diet, where a dangerously overweight patient loses a few pounds and then their weight stabilizes; instead, we need at this point a crash diet, difficult to do” but needed to limit the damage from climate change. The EPA said it made the changes based on expert reviews and new data from several sources, including a report funded by the oil and gas industry. But the estimates aren’t based on independent field tests of actual emissions, and some scientists said that’s a problem. Robert Howarth, a Cornell University professor of ecology who led a 2011 methane leak study that is widely cited by critics of fracking, wrote in an email that “time will tell where the truth lies in all this, but I think EPA is wrong.” Howarth said other federal climate scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration have published recent studies documenting massive methane leaks from natural gas operations in Colorado and other Western states. Howarth wrote that the EPA seems “to be ignoring the published NOAA data in their latest efforts, and the bias on industry only pushing estimates downward — never up — is quite real. EPA badly needs a counter-acting force, such as outside independent review of their process.” The issue of methane leaks has caused a major split between environmental groups. Since power plants that burn natural gas emit about half the amount of the greenhouse gases as coal-fired power, some say that the gas drilling boom has helped the U.S. become the only major industrialized country to significantly reduce greenhouse emissions. But others believe the methane leaks negate any benefits over coal, since methane is a highly potent greenhouse gas. The new EPA figures still show natural gas operations as the leading source of methane emissions in the U.S., at about 145 million metric tons in 2011. The next biggest source was enteric fermentation, scientific jargon for belches from cows and other animals, at 137 million metric tons. Landfills were the third-biggest source, at 103 million metric tons.

Authorities: Student shoots self in Ohio classroom CINCINNATI (AP) — An honors student at an all-male Catholic high school tried to commit suicide in his first-period classroom Monday, police said, critically wounding himself with a gunshot and sending other students scrambling for cover. La Salle High School west of Cincinnati was locked down until after police arrived and determined there was no threat to other students or staff. A University of Cincinnati Medical Center spokeswoman reported the student’s condition as critical Monday afternoon, about six hours after the shooting. Green Township Police Chief Bart West described the weapon as a semi-automatic handgun. He said police were investigating how the student obtained the gun and how he brought it into the school. West said there were 22 other students in the classroom, and the epi- sode was over “in a matter of seconds” with no other students injured or apparently threatened. Several students called 911 dispatchers. “There’s a guy with a gun,” said a student who called on his cellphone from inside a nearby locked room. “We just need police here ….” “We’re huddled in a corner,” another student said in a call. There was conflicting information on precisely what time the shooting took place, but school officials said it was during the first class period of the day. Hospital spokeswoman Diana Maria Lara released a statement from the boy’s parents thanking people for their thoughts and prayers while asking for privacy “so that we can do what we need to for our son and family.” They praised the hospital medical staff’s “heroic efforts.” In addition to his parents, Brooks was preceded in death by a sister, Wilma (Norman) Styer; and brothers, Paul, Howard, and Doug. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, May 1, 2013, in the Cremeens Funeral Home, Racine, with Pastor Wes Thoene officiating. Interment will follow in the Letart Falls Cemetery. Friends may call from 6-8 p.m. on Tuesday at the funeral home. Military graveside services will be conducted by Racine Post #602, Middleport Feeney Bennett Post #128 of the American Legion, and Tupper Plains Post #9053, Veterans of Foreign Wars. Soft-spoken Virginian holds sway on immigration WASHINGTON (AP) — Depending on whom you ask, Rep. Bob Goodlatte is either trying to stand in the way of landmark immigration legislation or he illustrates the new face of the GOP trying to find common ground on a contentious issue. Either way, the softspoken collector of elephant figurines and signed baseballs is asserting his pivotal role in the immigration debate as it moves into a critical phase on Capitol Hill. Goodlatte, a conservative Virginian, took over as chairman of the House Judiciary Committee in January, with jurisdiction over both immigration and gun control for House Republicans. He alarmed some immigration advocates last week by saying his panel will tackle the issue piece by piece, advancing a series of narrowly crafted measures rather than a single sweeping bill like the one pending in the Senate and endorsed by President Barack Obama. That broader legislation, crafted by a bipartisan group of eight senators, is headed for votes in the Senate Judiciary Committee starting next week. Kica Matos, director of immigrant rights and racial justice at the Center for Community Change, called Goodlatte’s move “a desperate attempt to delay and disrupt overwhelming momentum” behind legislation to provide legal status and eventual citizenship to millions of foreigners now in the U.S. illegally. A prominent liberal who’s worked with Goodlatte disagreed. It “confirms what I have been saying publicly and privately about the new tone and new interest among Republicans,” said Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill. “They want to solve the immigration policy issue and not just exploit it for partisan politics.” Goodlatte’s approach is nothing new for him. For two decades in the House, he’s plotted a steady, deliberate course on issues from agriculture to Internet privacy. He looks for consensus where possible, but without abandoning his conservative ideology or departing too much from the GOP party line, people who know him say. The difference now is that instead of laboring largely behind the scenes, Goodlatte heads a committee with jurisdiction over key pieces of Obama’s ambitious second-term agenda, most prominently immigration. He says he’s eager to advance the matter, convinced that his piece-by-piece approach is the best way to get the issue moving in the House but not declaring the method will prevail at the end of the day. “This process can be long, but it allows every representative and senator to have their constituents’ voices heard,” Goodlatte said. “And by taking a fine-tooth comb through each of the individual issues within the larger immigration debate, it will help us get a better bill that will benefit Americans and provide a workable immigration system.” In many ways Goodlatte, 60, has been preparing his entire career for his new role, including a first job out of law school as district staff director for an earlier Judiciary Committee member, Caldwell Butler, who served during the impeachment of President Richard Nixon. A Massachusetts native who moved to Virginia for law school and stayed — but remains a devoted Red Sox fan — Goodlatte, who lives in Roanoke, also worked as an immigration lawyer helping clients navigate the byzantine steps involved in bringing workers legally to the U.S. Goodlatte, who wears thin-rimmed glasses and, sometimes, a brown suit with a tie adorned with American flags, is almost universally described as approachable and willing to listen to opposing views. In addition to collecting baseballs and elephant statuettes that crowd the shelves of his office, he’s a history buff who has traveled to the homes and birthplaces of almost every U.S. president and grows most animated when rattling off obscure facts about them. Goodlatte’s most highprofile role in Congress to date came during last session’s heated debate over Internet piracy. As head of the his committee’s intellectual property subcommittee, he helped shepherd the Stop Online Piracy Act, which ignited a firestorm of opposition from critics claiming it would result in censorship and stifle innovation. Congress abandoned the bill in an embarrassing retreat, with Goodlatte and other backers derided as Luddites with no understanding of the Internet. Goodlatte says now that the debate never played out as he would have preferred. “I worked on that for a long time and was working in a different direction, and then a decision was made to go a different direction, and it was a bill introduced by the chairman of the committee, not me,” he said. That acknowledgement may point to limits to what Goodlatte might do on immigration, or any other issue. He’s not seen as likely to bolt from what GOP leaders decide. “He’s not a rogue chairman,” said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, DCalif., a senior Judiciary Committee member. Indeed Goodlatte is not going to have the final word on how any immigration overhaul moves forward in the House. That will fall to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, who could end up using an individual bill passed by Goodlatte’s committee as the vehicle for negotiating a compromise with the Senate on whatever more sweeping legislation it passes. A bipartisan group of House members operating separately from Goodlatte also is working on wide-ranging immigration overhaul legislation, though it’s unclear when those lawmakers will conclude a final deal and release their bill. Despite his preference for a step-by-step approach that some activists fear could drag out immigration overhaul until it comes to nothing, Goodlatte sounds decidedly open to compromise on the trickiest policy issue for Republicans in the debate — how to deal with the estimated 11 million immigrants already here illegally. He envisions a legal status short of citizenship for them, and from there the potential to make use of the existing legal avenues to naturalization, whether through work or family connections.

Memorial Stadium in Ross County. The Blue Devils (17-2) extended their winning streak to four after rallying back from an 11-6 deficit to claim a 12-11 decision over Unioto in the opener, but Athens led wire-to-wire in the nightcap to hand GAHS a 15-4 setback. Gallia Academy broke a scoreless tie in the top of the third after sending 11 batters to the plate, which resulted in six runs on six hits, a walk and a hit batsman. The Shermans answered with two runs in their half of the third to pull to within 6-2 through three complete. UHS, however, sent 15 batters to the plate in the bottom of the fifth, allowing the hosts to score nine runs on three hits, four walks and two GAHS errors to claim a sizable 11-6 cushion. The Blue Devils countered with six runs in the top of the sixth, which was capped by a Cody Russell RBI on a fielder’s choice that allowed Jimmy Clagg to score the eventual game-winning run. GAHS sent 10 batters to the plate in the sixth, which resulted in a half-dozen runs on four hits, two walks and one Unioto error.

GAHS got a two-out double from Faro in the seventh, but ultimately left him stranded in the 15-4 finale. The Blue Devils — who CINCINNATI (AP) — By drafting a tight end with sure hands and a running back that can catch passes, the Bengals think they’ve given their offense what it’s lacked most. A couple more playmakers are about to join an offense that didn’t have enough of them late last season, leading to another quick exit from the playoffs. “Well, there shouldn’t be any excuses,” quarterback Andy Dalton said on Monday. “With the players we already have and adding these guys is just going to make the offense better. So I expect us to take the next step. I expect us to improve from where we were last year.” Cincinnati made the playoffs for a second straight season — something done only one other time in franchise history — but had another rough time in the postseason. For the second year in a row, the Bengals lost to Houston in the opening round. They haven’t won a playoff game since the 1990 season, going 0-4 under coach Marvin Lewis. It’s tied for the seventh-longest stretch without a playoff win in NFL history, according to STATS. The offense has been the biggest problem the last two seasons. Dalton and receiver A.J. Green emerged as rookie stars in 2011, getting the Bengals to the playoffs with their ability to hook up on highlight plays. It wasn’t enough to get them very far in the postseason. The Bengals didn’t get another proven receiver last season, and the passing game was overly dependent upon Green again. Cincinnati finished only 22nd in yards on offense and 12th in points, although the defense had a big hand in that. The defense scored a touchdown in each of the last four games, including Leon Hall’s interception return during a 19-13 playoff loss to Houston. The defense had three touchdowns in the last three games, while the offense managed only one. The Bengals have tried to recti- fy that by drafting tight end Tyler Eifert from Notre Dame in the first round and running back Giovani Bernard from North Carolina in the second. Their top two draft picks were dedicated to giving the offense more playmakers. Everyone noticed the emphasis. “I think the offense is starting to go into the mode and the identity that I think (offensive coordinator) Jay Gruden has,” running backs coach Hue Jackson said. “Our job is to score points. And in order to do that, you’ve got to make sure you have players that can do that. And we have some on this team right now.” In the final three games last season, Green was the only real threat. The Bengals converted only 7 of 37 third-down plays in those three games, failed to pick up 200 yards in two of the three games, and averaged only 47 yards rushing. Dalton was 48 of 48 for 783 yards with one touchdown, three interceptions and a passer rating of 61.3, well below average. In addition to the newcomers, the Bengals are hoping that receiver Mohamed Sanu is fully recovered from a broken foot that cut short his rookie season. Sanu, a third-round pick from Rutgers last year, had worked his way into the starting lineup when he broke his left foot and needed surgery on Dec. 3. Sanu caught 16 passes for 154 yards with four touchdowns in nine games last season, ran five times for 15 yards and threw a 73-yard touchdown pass to Green out of a wildcat formation. Sanu expects to be at full-speed for the team’s offseason workouts in May. “My body feels great,” Sanu said on Monday. “Now it’s just a matter of getting back out there and ready to play. I’m already 100 percent (healed). Now I’m just getting to the point where I want to be as far as being in shape and getting ready for the OTAs and the season.” Devils From Page 6 and three RBIs.

Tonight: Head home. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You might rock the boat, which is something you usually try not to do. A new perspective results from discussing a changeable situation. An associate or a loved one could become even more withdrawn. Tonight: At a favorite place with favorite people. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You might not want to reveal all of your thoughts about a key partnership, as you could realize how many changes you have gone through with the other party involved, both professionally and personally.

You are capable of opening someone up who might be closed down right now. You know how to persuade this person to share his or her feelings, provided you do so in a safe place. Use care with a grumpy boss. Tonight: Let the party begin. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Be careful with someone you meet today for the first time, as this person might not be everything that he or she claims to be.

It was unpredictable, productive, maybe even a little odd. Over three days, the team continued its latest rebuilding project by addressing some glaring needs. The Browns picked LSU pass rusher Barkevious Mingo in the first round, acquired veteran wide receiver Davone Bess in a trade from Miami and selected San Diego State cornerback Leon McFadden in the third round. Those were smart, solid moves.

The surprises came Saturday when the Browns pulled off their first trade in 45 years with the rival Pittsburgh Steelers, made another deal with Indianapolis to add another late-round pick in 2014, selected a Notre Dame safety coming off a ruptured Achilles and took two Division II players, one who was arrested in October for selling marijuana to a friend on campus. About the only thing the Browns didn’t do was pick a quarterback despite rampant pre-draft speculation they might take either Geno Smith or EJ Manuel. All in all, the Browns came away feeling good about what they’d done.
