Ohio counties to receive casino payment July 31
Sarah Hawley

shawley@civitasmedia.com

OHIO VALLEY —
Counties through out the
state of Ohio are expected
to receive payment from
the casino tax revenue
later this month.

The July 31 payments
will mark one year since
the first distribution was
made to the counties,
with the amounts increasing each time.
While the exact amount
of the upcoming distribution is not know at this

time, given the increase in
revenues by the four casinos it seems likely that the
funds received by the counties would also increase.
From April to June of this
year — the three month period for which the upcoming
payments will reflect — the

four casinos combined for a
revenue of just under $213
million. In the previous three
months, the casinos has a
combined revenue of slightly
more than $193 million.
(Note: Horseshoe Casino
Cincinnati did not officially
open until March 4)

To date, Gallia County
has received $283,083.39
from the casino tax revenue over four payments,
the last in the amount of
$85,379.13 in April.
Meigs County has received $182,356.26, with
the largest payment of

$65,596.92 in April.
Funds received by the
counties are not earmarked by the state and
can be used at the discretion of the county.
Payments are also made

On Monday, the Pleasant Valley Hospital Board
of Trustees announced
Larry Unroe was appointed to the position. There

“I am very proud of the

employees and this organization, and it has been my
honor to have served PVH
during my sixteen-year
tenure. I wish nothing but
the best for the employees
and continued success of
Pleasant Valley Hospital,”
Schauer said.
Schauer served as CEO
for the past two years.

the leadership Tom provided our hospital over the
last two years,” Mario Liberatore, chairman of the
board of Pleasant Valley
Hospital said. “Under his
guidance, PVH was named
one of the top hospitals in

the State of West Virginia

Act.”

strategic planning process in order to react to
the changing health care
environment
affecting
hospitals across the nation. According to PVH,
the new strategic plan has

MSHA says 2012 safest year on record for US mines
MORGANTOWN,
W.Va. (AP) — U.S. mining operations had the
lowest death and injury
rates in their history last
year with 36 on-the-job fatalities, federal regulators
said Wednesday.
That’s one more than the
Mine Safety and Health
Administration had announced in preliminary
totals in April. MSHA
said it added the Dec. 28
death of a coal miner at the
Choctaw Mine in Walker
County, Ala.
The final figures also
show the lowest rate of
contractor deaths since
the agency began tracking
them in 1983, MSHA said.
Five contractors died last
year, down from 11 the
previous year.
About 100 fewer coal
mines were in operation

last year, and the number of working miners
fell from a decades-long
high of 143,437 in 2011
to 137,650 last year. But
MSHA says that’s still
the second-highest year
for mining employment
since 1984.
MSHA director Joe
Main credits the improvements to tougher enforcement measures and to actions taken by industry.
“It’s a job that’s never
done, as long as miners are
getting injured, as long as
miners are getting killed,”
he said. However, “I think
we are moving in the right
direction when you look at
all the fundamental data
that we have.”
MSHA is also focused
on internal improvements
and on better education
and outreach, he said.

Twenty workers died in
accidents related to coal
mining last year, the second-lowest number ever.
The fatality rate was .0159
deaths per 200,000 hours
worked, also the secondlowest ever recorded.
The rate of reported injuries at coal mines was
3.16 per 200,000 hours
worked, a record low.
MSHA says the number
of citations and orders at
coal mines issued declined
15 percent, from 93,330 in
2011 to 79,250 last year.
In metal and nonmetal
mining, MSHA said the
record-low fatality rate
for last year was .0079
deaths per 200,000 hours
worked. Sixteen miners
died in on-the-job accidents in those operations, tying 2011 results.
While the number of

metal and nonmetal mines
remained steady in 2012,
the number of working
miners increased from
nearly 238,000 to more
than 250,228 last year.
MSHA took several
steps to improve its enforcement of safety regulations after the 2010 Upper
Big Branch mine explosion
killed 29 men in southern West Virginia. They
include monthly impact
inspections of problem
mines and “Rules to Live
By” issued last year.
“I do think there’s a cultural change in the industry that’s being driven by
a lot of what we’re doing,”
Main said. “Where there
was everyone waiting for
government to make you
do something, we’ve now
got some proactiveness. …
We hope it continues along
this path.”

W.Va. courthouse commandments monument to stay
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) —
Wyoming County officials aren’t
going to remove a monument to
the Ten Commandments from the
courthouse lawn.
The American Civil Liberties
Union’s state chapter has questioned the monument’s constitutionality. The ACLU says government property is being used to

advocate one religion over another.
Wyoming County prosecutor Michael Cochrane tells the local newspaper that he doesn’t believe the
monument promotes Christianity
over other religions.
“I researched different religions
as far as whether the Ten Commandments is discriminatory or
not,” Cochrane said. “Basically a

type of Ten Commandments is cut
across a lot of religions.”
Cochrane says it promotes laws
that are based on some of the commandments. He also says the Ten
Commandments are recognized
as a universal code of conduct by
many people.
Cochrane says the monument will
stay on the courthouse lawn.

Boston bombing suspect pleads not guilty
BOSTON (AP) — His arm in
a cast and his face swollen, a blase-looking Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
pleaded not guilty Wednesday
in the Boston Marathon bombing in a seven-minute proceeding that marked his first public
appearance since his capture in
mid-April.
As victims of the bombing
looked on, Tsarnaev, 19, gave a
lopsided smile to his sisters upon
arriving in the courtroom. He appeared to have a jaw injury and
there was swelling around his
left eye and cheek.
Then, after he leaned over
toward a microphone and said,
“Not guilty” over and over in a
Russian accent, he was led out
of the courtroom, making a kissing motion with his lips toward
his family as he left. His sister
sobbed loudly, resting her head
on a woman seated next to her.
He faces 30 federal charges, including using a weapon of mass
destruction to kill, and could get

the death penalty if prosecutors
choose to pursue it.
The proceedings took place
in a heavily guarded courtroom
packed not only with victims but
with their families, police officers, members of the public and
the media.
Tsarnaev looked much as he
did in a photo widely circulated
after his arrest, his hair curly
and unkempt. He appeared nonchalant, almost bored during the
hearing. The cast covered his left
forearm, his hand and his fingers.
The April 15 attack killed three
people and wounded more than
260. Authorities say Tsarnaev
orchestrated the attack along
with his older brother, Tamerlan
Tsarnaev, who died following a
shootout with police three days
after the bombing.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested on April 19 when he was
found hiding in a boat in a suburban backyard. He was initially
charged in the hospital, where he

was recovering from wounds suffered in a police shootout.
Tsarnaev’s two sisters, both
in Muslim garb, were in court
Wednesday. One was carrying
a baby, the other wiped away
tears with a tissue. His parents
remained back in Russia.
Reporters and spectators began lining up for seats in the
courtroom at 7:30 a.m. as a
dozen Federal Protective Service
officers and bomb-sniffing dogs
surrounded the courthouse.
Four hours before the hearing, the defendant arrived at
the courthouse in a four-vehicle
motorcade that included a van,
a Humvee and a state police car.
A group of about a dozen
Tsarnaev supporters cheered
as the motorcade arrived. The
demonstrators yelled, “Justice
for Jahar!” as Tsarnaev is known.
One woman held a sign that said,
“Free Jahar.”
Lacey Buckley, 23, said she
traveled from her home in

Wenatchee, Wash., to attend
the arraignment. Buckley said
she has never met Tsarnaev but
came because she believes he’s
innocent. “I just think so many
of his rights were violated. They
almost murdered an unarmed
kid in a boat,” she said.
A group of friends who were
on the high school wrestling
team with Tsarnaev at Cambridge Rindge and Latin waited
in line outside the courtroom for
hours, hoping to get a seat.
One of them, Hank Alvarez,
said Tsarnaev was calm, peaceful
and apolitical in high school.
“Just knowing him, it’s hard for
me to face the fact that he did it,”
said Alvarez, 19, of Cambridge.
Another ex-teammate, Shun
Tsou, 20, of Cambridge, called
Tsarnaev “a silent warrior type.”
“There was nothing sketchy
about him,” said Tsou, adding
that he had not formed an opinion on Tsarnaev’s guilt or innocence.

Prosecutors say Tsarnaev, a
Muslim, wrote about his motivations for the bombing on the
inside walls and beams of the
boat where he was captured. He
wrote the U.S. government was
“killing our innocent civilians.”
“I don’t like killing innocent
people,” he said, but also wrote:
“I can’t stand to see such evil go
unpunished. … We Muslims are
one body, you hurt one you hurt
us all.”
Three people — Martin Richard, 8; Krystle Marie Campbell,
29; and Lingzi Lu, 23 — were
killed by the bombs, which were
improvised from pressure cookers. Authorities say the Tsarnaevs also killed Massachusetts
Institute of Technology officer
Sean Collier days later while
they were on the run.
Numerous bombing victims
had legs amputated after the
two explosions, which detonated
along the final stretch of the race
a couple hours after the elite runners had finished.

Defense rests case in George Zimerman trial
SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — After taking
less than a week to call 18 witnesses,
George Zimmerman’s defense attorneys
rested their case Wednesday in the neighborhood watch volunteer’s second-degree
murder trial.
Prosecutors called their first rebuttal
witness immediately afterward— Adam
Pollock, the gym owner who had trained
Zimmerman. Following rebuttal witnesses, prosecutors and defense attorneys will
then work out the jury instructions before
presenting closing arguments. The judge
then sends the case to six jurors.
Zimmerman never testified. But jurors
saw repeated video recordings of Zimmerman telling his side of the story to police
investigators. The defense started its case
last Friday, and it presented half as many
witnesses in half of the time that prosecutors did.
The defense rested on a day when the
judge made two rulings that prevented
them from introducing two pieces of evidence. Defense attorneys had wanted to
present to jurors text messages discussing

fighting from Trayvon Martin’s cell phone
and an animation depicting Zimmerman’s
fatal fight with Martin. But Judge Debra
Nelson sided with prosecutors, who had
argued the animation is inaccurate the
texts were irrelevant.
During the four days they presented
their case, defense attorneys called Zimmerman’s friends, parents and uncle to
testify that it is Zimmerman screaming for
help on a 911 call that captured sounds of
the fatal fight. Martin’s mother and brother had testified for the prosecution that
it’s Martin yelling for help.
Convincing the jury of who was screaming for help on the 911 tape has become
the primary goal of prosecutors and defense attorneys because it would help jurors evaluate Zimmerman’s self-defense
claim.
Zimmerman’s father, Robert Zimmerman Sr., was the last witness called by the
defense on Wednesday, and he said it’s his
son yelling for help on the call.
Defense attorneys also called a forensic
pathologist who testified that the foren-

Pentagon eyes cuts in danger pay
WASHINGTON (AP)
— The Pentagon is eyeing
plans to eliminate danger
pay for service members
in as many as 18 countries
and five waterways around
the world, saving about
$120 million each year
while taking a bite out of
troops’ salaries, The Associated Press has learned.
Senior defense and military leaders are expected
to meet later this week to
review the matter and are
poised to approve a new
plan. Pentagon press secretary George Little declined
to discuss details but said
no final decisions have
been made.
Senior military leaders
came up with the proposed
list of locations in their regions that no longer were
perilous enough to warrant
danger pay, including several countries in the heart
of the tumultuous Middle
East, such as Jordan,
where hundreds of troops
have recently deployed because of the bloody Syrian
civil war on its border.
Defense officials said the
proposal would strip the
stipend — which can be up
to $225 per month — from
as many as 56,000 service
members, including thousands stationed in Kuwait,
which was a key hub during the Iraq war. It also
would affect thousands of
sailors who routinely travel
through the Persian Gulf
region on ships or airmen
who fly over the Gulf.
The $225 monthly cut in
pay would come regardless
of the service member’s
base salary, which can
range from a low of roughly $18,000 a year for a
brand new recruit to a high
of nearly $235,000 a year
for a four-star general with
more than 40 years in the
military. Troops also can
receive a variety of other
allowances for housing,
clothing or job specialties.
Defense officials described the proposal on
condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized to speak publicly
about it.
Under the plans being

discussed, troops would
still receive the extra money if they serve in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon,
Pakistan, Syria, Yemen and
in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
The U.S. does not have
any military members now
serving in Iran.
Some of the countries that could likely be
dropped from the list include Bahrain, where the
Navy’s 5th Fleet is located;
Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Liberia, Haiti and several former Soviet republics.
Officials have argued
that if service members
are allowed to bring their
families with them for assignments in places like
Bahrain, then it is difficult
to argue that they should
receive danger pay.
The list has routinely
evolved over many years,
with countries added as
they became more dangerous hotspots. And military
leaders do periodic reviews
of the list.
While the changes are
based solely on the security review, the cuts also
come as the Pentagon is
under growing pressure
to slash its budget, and as
more than 650,000 civilians began taking the first
of their 11 required days
off without pay through
the end of this fiscal year
on Sept. 30.
Defense
Secretary
Chuck Hagel said earlier
this week that the fiscal
pressures and congressional gridlock have led to far
more abrupt and steeper

cuts than expected. He
noted that if Congress does
not find a way to avoid the
automatic budget cuts
known as sequestration,
the department will have
to find $52 billion in additional savings next year.
So far, the danger pay
decision does not affect the
tax-free status of service
members’ pay when serving in those countries or
on ships in the Gulf region.
Under existing Defense
Department rules, military troops serving in as
many as two dozen different nations as well as the
Persian Gulf, Red Sea, Gulf
of Oman, Arabian Sea and
Gulf of Aden have been
able to receive the imminent danger pay. Until
early 2012, they received
the full monthly amount —
$225 at the time — for any
complete or partial month
they served in any of the
qualifying areas.
Beginning Feb. 1, 2012,
troops received pro-rated
payments of $7.50 for each
day they were on official
duty in one of the areas.
The total cost has been
about $500 million per
year.
Officials also said the
proposed changes do not
affect hostile fire pay. Service members who are
exposed to a hostile fire
or hostile mine explosion
event are eligible to receive
a full monthly payment of
$225. But they can’t receive both danger pay
and hostile fire pay for the
same month.

sics evidence supports Zimmerman’s account of what happened.
Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to
second-degree murder and says he shot
an unarmed Martin in self-defense during a scuffle in the townhome complex
where he lived in February 2012. Martin
was there visiting his father and his father’s fiancee. Some civil rights activists
argued that the initial delay in charging
Zimmerman was influenced by Martin’s
race. Martin was black and Zimmerman
identifies himself as Hispanic. The 44-day
delay in Zimmerman’s arrest led to protests around the nation.
Earlier Wednesday, defense attorneys
called public safety consultant Dennis
Root to testify that Martin was in better
physical shape than Zimmerman, and that
the neighborhood watch volunteer wasn’t
any athlete.
“He would find himself lacking when
compared to Mr. Martin,” Root said of
Zimmerman.
During cross-examination of Root, prosecutor John Guy used a life-sized foam

mannequin in front of the jury to simulate
the body positions of Zimmerman and
Martin at the time of the shooting.
Straddling the dummy, Guy proposed a scenario in which Martin
was on top of Zimmerman and asked
Root if it was possible that Martin was
backing away from Zimmerman at the
time of the fatal gunshot.
“Yes,” Root said.
Root also said he may have taken different actions if he were in Zimmerman’s
situation, but said that “it’s just a matter
of what you as the individual view as options.”
Using the same mannequin during further questioning of Root, defense attorney Mark O’Mara challenged the notion
of Martin retreating. Root said that while
multiple gun angles were possible, he had
no specific information to say what position Martin was in when he was shot.
“I think you’re not going to be involved
in a conflict like this without it being dynamic,” Root said.

Judge orders W.Va.
juvenile facility closed
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) —
Testimony alleging sexual assaults
and other problems at a West Virginia facility for juvenile offenders
helped prompt a judge Wednesday
to order its shutdown.
Following a Kanawha Circuit Court
hearing, Judge Omar Aboulhosn told
state officials to relocate the Harriet
B. Jones Treatment Center or its residents by Sept. 30.
The Harrison County facility is on
the same Salem campus as the nowformer Industrial Home for Youth.
Aboulhosn earlier targeted that highsecurity facility for juvenile offenders
over conditions there, leading the state
to close it to youths as of July 1 and
convert it to an adult prison.
But the Division of Juvenile Services has yet to identify a replacement
facility or sufficient spare beds at
other centers for the 21 sex offenders and seven juveniles with mental
and behavioral health issues at Harriet B. Jones. The judge suggested
several options during the morning

hearing, said Lydia Milnes, a lawyer
with Mountain State Justice.
“It’s clear that he wants them out by
the 30th,” Milnes said following the
hearing, adding that the judge may
give state officials some leeway with
that deadline.
A public interest law firm, Mountain State Justice filed the lawsuit that
spurred Aboulhosn ruling against Industrial Home for Youth. Milnes said
Wednesday’s witnesses include correctional officer Troy Stephenson, who
testified that a 20-year-old sex offender
allegedly sexually assaulted a 15-yearold from the behavioral health unit
over the weekend.
Young offenders can remain at juvenile facilities past their 18th birthday,
depending on their sentences. While
the two groups of juveniles were kept
apart and had separate staff, that
changed July 1 amid the state’s conversion plan for the campus, Milnes said.
As a result, Stephenson and just three
other officers were on duty at the time
of the alleged assault, she said.

Opinion

Still preparing
for nuclear war
Lawrence S. Wittner
Nearly a quarter century
after the disappearance of
the Soviet Union and the
end of the Cold War, the
U.S. government is still
getting ready for nuclear
war.
This fact was underscored on June 19, 2013,
when the Pentagon, on
behalf of President Barack
Obama, released a report
to Congress outlining what
it called the U.S. government’s “Nuclear Employment Strategy.” Although
the report indicated some
minor alterations in U.S.
policy, it exhibited far more
continuity than change.
In 2010, the administration’s Nuclear Posture Review declared that it would
work toward making deterrence of nuclear attack the
“sole purpose” of U.S. nuclear weapons. The 2013
report, however, without
any explanation, reported
that “we cannot adopt such
a policy today.” Thus, as in
the past, the U.S. government considers itself free
to initiate a nuclear attack
on other nations.
In addition, the 2013
“Nuclear
Employment
Strategy” continued U.S.
government reliance on a
“nuclear triad” of groundlaunched intercontinental
ballistic missiles, submarine-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles,
and bomber-launched nuclear weapons. Although
the need for one or more
legs of this “triad” has
been debated since the
early 1990s, the 2013 report concluded that “retaining all three triad legs
will best maintain strategic stability.”
The 2013 “Nuclear Employment Strategy” also retained another controversial aspect of U.S. nuclear
policy: counterforce strategy. Designed to employ
U.S. nuclear weapons to
destroy an enemy nation’s
nuclear weapons, delivery
systems, and associated
installations, counterforce
is potentially very destabilizing, for it provides
an incentive to nations
caught up in a crisis to
knock out the opponent’s

nuclear weapons before
they can be used. And this,
in turn, means that nations
are more likely to initiate
nuclear war and to desire
large numbers of nuclear
weapons to avoid having
their weapons totally destroyed by a preemptive
attack. Consequently, as
Hans Kristensen of the
Federation of American
Scientists has noted, the
report’s emphasis on counterforce “undercuts efforts
to reduce the role and numbers of nuclear weapons.”
Furthermore,
despite
a growing desire among
Western nations to have
the U.S. government remove an estimated 200
nuclear-armed B61 gravity bombs — weapons
dating back to the 1960s
— deployed in Belgium,
Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Turkey, the
Pentagon report made no
proposal along these lines.
These Cold War relics, too,
remain untouchable.
One shift in emphasis
indicated in the “Nuclear
Employment Strategy” is
a presidential directive to
Pentagon officials to “reduce the role of `launch under attack.’” Currently, it is
U.S. policy to fire nuclear
weapons at an opponent
on short notice if there are
signs that a nuclear strike
is under way against the
United States or its allies.
But this reduction in the
likelihood of sliding into
a full-scale nuclear war
would be more reassuring
if the President’s directive did not also command
the Pentagon to retain a
launch-under-attack capability, in case the President
decided to use it.
But what about Obama’s
lofty rhetoric of April
2009, in Prague, where
he stated that the U.S.
government was committed to building a nuclearweapons-free world? Also,
didn’t he renew that approach in his Berlin speech
of June 19, 2013, only
hours before the issuance
of the Pentagon’s “Nuclear
Employment
Strategy,”
when he called for nuclear
disarmament negotiations
with the Russians?
Yes, the rhetoric of 2009

was very inspiring, landing Obama a Nobel Peace
Prize and raising hopes
around the world that the
nuclear menace was on
the verge of extinction.
But fairly little came of it,
with the modest exception
of the New START Treaty
with Russia.
The Berlin speech, too,
was substantially overrated. Although many media reports implied that
Obama had proposed decreasing the Russian and
American nuclear arsenals
by a third, the reality was
that the President suggested his readiness to support
a reduction of “up to” a
third of deployed Russian
and American strategic
nuclear weapons. Under
the New START Treaty,
the limit to the number
of these kinds of weapons
in each nation is 1,550.
Thus, in reality, Obama announced that he favored an
agreement for each nation
to eliminate 1 to 517 of
them. From the standpoint
of nuclear disarmers, that
reduction would certainly
be welcome — if, in the
face of Republican resistance, it is ever consummated. But, it should be
noted that, at present, the
U.S. government possesses
approximately 7,700 nuclear weapons.
This
administration
unwillingness to discard
the immensely dangerous,
outdated nuclear policies
of the past flies in the face
of public support for abolishing nuclear weapons,
whether expressed in public opinion polls or in the
resolutions of mainstream
bodies like the National
Council of Churches and
the U.S. Conference of
Mayors. But, unless there
is a substantial public mobilization to end the American government’s reliance
on nuclear war, it seems
likely that U.S. officials will
continue to prepare for it.

Finding security
in a world of insecurity
Stephanie Van Hook
Americans are learning as a nation the
truth about security. In the era of Julian
Assanges and Edward Snowdens, we have
gone through a checklist—spying does
not make us secure and even fails to warn
us that entire regions are imminently in
revolution; foreign wars do not make us
more secure but instead more hated; a
war on terror does not make us secure but
rather breeds even more terrorists; operating drones does not make us more secure
as it spreads hot conflict across numerous borders and angers entire societies;
increasing our military spending does not
make us more secure as it means we have
dwindling budgets left for bridges, education, protection of our food/air/soil/water
and so we become more insecure.
Our retributive prison system does not
make us more secure with no rehabilitation and instead gives us ranks of recidivists; our police forces do not make us
more secure when entire communities are
afraid to call them; electing new people to
office who speak of the promise of security turns out not to make us more secure
and indeed strips us of the securities guaranteed in the endangered Bill of Rights.
Alas, it seems, even a Bill of Rights does
not make us secure.
Shopping does not make us secure; a
new line of clothing or makeup will not
make us secure; controlling women’s bodies, disenfranchising people of color, creating new, violent games for our youth do
not make us more secure. What will make
us more secure? We will, and it is time for
a radical shift in the way we think not only
about security but about who we are.
The genius of Gandhi, and the attractive
force that he embodied during the Indian
Freedom Struggle for people around the
world was that he was a secure person.
More than that, he was secure in the midst
of doing everything that the dominant
paradigm would say would make him insecure, and he did so in a very simple way.
When he realized that passivity was
not an answer to solve the problem of foreign domination, he upheld nonviolent
creative action. When he realized that
untruth was the order of the day (even
back then!), he upheld the principle of
truth; instead of maintaining a vision of
“the greatest good for the greatest number,” or a utilitarian approach to social
uplift that required sacrificing some for
the good of all, his motto was “the uplift
of all,” sarvodaya. And he struggled to
uphold these values in his personal life.
This is the secret of security: like love,
at its highest, it is not something that
we receive; it is something that we do.
And in doing security, in being secure
and promoting the security of others, we

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

find our own. It starts with the spirit,
not the spy game. It takes a shift toward
altruism, not a shift toward shutting
down others and others and others and
finally ourselves.
Of course, in times of insecurity, the secure person threatens the status quo. It is
not without risk that we are called to live
our truth. Gandhi was one of many who
lived the consequence of speaking truth to
power: like Dr. King, he was assassinated;
yes, but his goal was not to save his life,
rather, to use his life for a higher purpose.
He wanted to use his life to challenge the
underlying story of who we have come to
believe we are. He knew that to do so, taking risks was a part of the package.
Security is risky, but the paradox arises from our belief that we can be secure
at others’ expense, separate from them
– from our belief that our physical wellbeing (as opposed to our meaning) is the
locus of our security.
We do not necessarily have to be willing
to risk our lives—what if we risked our
egos, instead? What if we risked our sense
of separation from one another, our institutionalized alienation? What if we took
bold action for a more peaceful world, just
by shifting the way we see ourselves? Insecurity is contagious, and so is deep security. It’s risky to believe in what we cannot
see with our eyes, yet this isn’t unnatural
to us. We listen to fear all of the time and
let it dictate our actions and the nature
of our relationships to others. Julian Assange and Edward Snowden may be afraid
for their lives right now, but they are not
afraid that they’ve wasted their lives. Are
they not the secure ones in that sense?
We can enlarge what they have announced with their sacrifice (and not necessarily by going that far). The Buddha
once said, “of all relationships, the best is
trust.” The NSA revelations have shown
that we have tried to build a world of distrust in a mistaken search for security.
Let’s begin by dismantling that.
How do we start? In earnest…
By holding ourselves to a higher standard of what we can achieve with our
lives: challenging ourselves to become
more forgiving and willing to negotiate;
more fearless and unwilling to humiliate;
more generous, with all of our resources;
more constructively empowered to do
right by ourselves and others; more willing to learn from our mistakes without allowing ourselves to feel degraded in the
process, we will slowly, steadily build a
more secure world, from the inside out.
We are not working in isolation—the children in our homes and neighborhoods, the
inheritors of this world and our states of
mind, are watching us.

NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — The Navy
successfully landed a drone the size
of a fighter jet aboard an aircraft carrier for the first time Wednesday,
showcasing the military’s capability
to have a computer program perform
one of the most difficult tasks a pilot
is asked to do.
The landing of the X-47B experimental aircraft mean the Navy can
move forward with its plans to develop another unmanned aircraft
that will join the fleet alongside traditional airplanes to provide aroundthe-clock surveillance while also
possessing a strike capability. It also
would pave the way for the U.S. to
launch unmanned aircraft without
the need to obtain permission from
other countries to use their bases.
The X-47B experimental aircraft
took off from Naval Air Station
Patuxent River in Maryland before
approaching the USS George H.W.
Bush, which is operating off the coast
of Virginia. The drone landed by deploying a tailhook that caught a wire
aboard the ship and brought it to a
quick stop, just like normal fighter
jets do. The maneuver is known as
an arrested landing and has previously only been done by the drone on
land at Patuxent River. Landing on a
ship that is constantly moving while
navigating through turbulent air behind the aircraft carrier is seen as a
more difficult maneuver.
“Your grandchildren and great
grandchildren and mine will be reading about this historic event in their
history books. This is not trivial, nor
is it something that came lightly,”
said Rear Adm. Mat Winter, the Navy’s program executive officer for unmanned aviation and strike weapons.
The X-47B will never be put into
operational use, but it will help Navy
officials develop future carrier-based
drones. Those drones could begin
operating by 2020, according to Winter. Four companies are expected to

mine will be reading about this historic event in
their history books. This is not trivial, nor is it

compete for a contract to design the
future unmanned aircraft, which will
be awarded in Fiscal Year 2014.
The two experimental aircrafts that
have been built for the first round of
testing will be retired and placed in
museums at Patuxent River and at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida.
The move to expand the capabilities of the nation’s drones comes amid
growing criticism of America’s use of
Predators and Reapers to gather intelligence and carry out lethal missile
attacks against terrorists in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen.
Critics in the U.S. and abroad
have charged that drone strikes
cause widespread civilian deaths
and are conducted with inadequate
oversight. Still, defense analysts say
drones are the future of warfare.
The X-47B is far bigger than the
Predator, has three times the range
and can be programmed to carry out
missions with no human intervention, the Navy said.
While the X-47B isn’t a stealth
aircraft, it was designed with the
low profile of one. That will help in
the development of future stealth
drones, which would be valuable as
the military changes its focus from
the Middle East to the Pacific, where
a number of countries’ air defenses
are a lot stronger than Afghanistan’s.
The X-47B has a wingspan of about
62 feet and weighs 14,000 pounds,
versus nearly 49 feet and about 1,100

pounds for the Predator.
While Predators are typically piloted via remote control by someone
in the U.S., the X-47B relies only on
computer programs to tell it where
to fly unless a human operator needs
to step in. The Navy says the aircraft
relies on precision GPS navigation,
a high-integrity network connection
and advanced flight control software
to guide itself.
Developed by Northrop Grumman
under a 2007 contract at a cost of
$1.4 billion, the X-47B is capable of
carrying weapons and is designed
to be the forerunner for a drone program that will provide around-theclock intelligence, surveillance and
targeting, according to the Navy,
which has been giving updates on the
project over the past few years.
“It has taken several years of software development, thousands of
simulated landings in high fidelity
labs and many hours of flight test
in the Patuxent River landing pattern to prove this aircraft is up for
the challenge,” Capt. Jaime Engdahl,
program manager for the Navy Unmanned Combat Air System wrote in
a blog post. “Today X-47B is ready!”
The X-47B can reach an altitude
of more than 40,000 feet and has a
range of more than 2,100 nautical
miles, versus 675 for the Predator.
The Navy plans to show the drone
can be refueled in flight, which would
give it even greater range.

Payments to the counties are based on

The Casino Tax Revenue is a result of
the constitutional amendment passed in
2009 which allowed for the four casinos
to be placed in Ohio.
According to the Ohio Department of
Taxation website, the Ohio Casino Control Commission is responsible for licensing and regulating casino operators, their
employees, and gaming-related vendors.
The Ohio Department of Taxation is re-

sponsible for administering the gross casino revenue tax and for ensuring compliance with all pertinent state tax laws, as
well as administrative rules and policies
as they apply to other taxes administered
by the Department of Taxation.
The gross casino revenue tax is imposed on licensed casino operators at the
rate of 33 percent. “Gross casino revenue”
is the total amount of money exchanged
for tokens, chips and tickets at a casino
facility, less any winnings paid out to wagerers.
The operators of each casino facility are
required to file daily returns with the De-

partment and to remit payments for the
related tax liabilities every day that banks
are open for business. Each return reflects
casino gaming activity over a 24-hour period.
The tax revenue collected from the
gross casino revenue tax is split among
seven funds benefiting the counties and
certain large cities, school districts, host
cities, the Casino Control Commission,
the Ohio State Racing Commission, law
enforcement training and problem gambling and addictions. Distributions to localities occur on a quarterly basis, except
for school districts, which will receive
their distributions semi-annually.

Aaron Hernandez’s troubles have become Urban Meyer’s problem.
A murder charge against Hernandez, who played for
Meyer at Florida from 2007-09, has led to greater scrutiny of Meyer’s time as Gators head coach — a six-year
run highlighted by two national championships and Tim
Tebow’s Heisman Trophy, but also marked by about two
dozen players making the police blotter.
Hernandez was not one of the 25 players who accounted
for 31 arrests during Meyer’s tenure, but he had issues —

Ex-Bengals cheerleader
libel case goes to jury
COVINGTON, Ky. (AP) — A jury’s decision in a former Cincinnati Bengals’ cheerleader’s defamation lawsuit
against a gossip website could impact websites around
the country, attorneys for both sides said Wednesday.
Sarah Jones is seeking damages from thedirty.com and
its operator over posts made in 2009 on the Scottsdale,
Ariz. - based website. One post claimed she had sex with
every Bengals player, and the other said she probably had
two sexually transmitted diseases. She says both are false
and has accused website operator Nik Richie of malice.
Jones’ attorney, Eric Deters, told jurors in closing arguments Wednesday they have a chance to send a message
to websites across the country that they should be careful
and “it’s not right to defame people.”
He said Richie is guilty of malice by posting submissions Richie says were anonymous. Even though Richie
eventually took the posts down months later, they will
never be off the Internet, Deters said.
“He can bash her forever,” Deters said.
Richie’s attorney told jurors their decision could
have a negative impact on free speech for other people
and websites.
“It’s trying to hold Nik responsible for someone else’s
work,” attorney David Gingras said.

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Mike Leake delivers against the Texas Rangers during the first inning at Rangers
Ballpark in Arlington, Texas on June 29.

Leake leads Reds over Brewers
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Mike
Leake scattered four hits over
8 1-3 innings and Brandon Phillips had three RBI, lifting the
Cincinnati Reds to a 6-2 win
over the Milwaukee Brewers on
Wednesday.
The Reds put the leadoff runner
on base in each of the first seven
innings and snapped a three-game
losing streak.
Leake (8-4) bounced back from
a rare rough start in his last outing and seemed to get stronger as
the game progressed. He allowed
four walks while striking out two.
Milwaukee starter Johnny Hellweg (0-3) had trouble throwing
strikes and was battered for his
fourth consecutive appearance.
The right-hander, who made his
major-league debut on June 28, allowed four runs on four hits and
five walks in 4 1-3 innings.
Leake allowed four runs in just
five innings during his last start
July 5 in a 7-4 loss to Seattle,
and gave up a first-inning run
to Milwaukee. The right-hander
then settled down, giving up
Sean Halton’s first major-league
home run and a walk to Jeff Bianchi in the fifth before retiring

13 consecutive batters.
Jonathan Lucroy reached off
Leake on a one-out single in the
ninth, and Cincinnati manager
Dusty Baker turned to closer Aroldis Chapman to finish the game
in a non-save situation.
Shin-Soo Choo had two singles,
a double and a walk as the first
seven batters in the Cincinnati
lineup reached base during the
game. Phillips had two hits and
drove in runs in the first, third
and seventh innings.
Jay Bruce went 2-for-4 with a
walk, driving in a run in both the
fifth and seventh innings.
Acquired in the 2012 trade that
sent Zack Greinke to the Los Angeles Angels, Hellweg has struggled in three starts and one relief
appearance. In 10 2-3 innings, he
has given up 20 runs on 19 hits
and 12 walks while striking out
three batters.
The Reds made it 1-0 in the
first on Choo’s leadoff double and
a two-out single by Phillips.
Milwaukee tied it in the bottom
of the inning on a leadoff double
by Logan Schafer and a sacrifice
fly by Carlos Gomez.
Cincinnati took the lead for

good, 2-1, on a sacrifice fly by
Devin Mesoraco in the second,
scoring Bruce. The Reds added
another run in the third when
Zack Cozart scored from third
on Phillips’ groundout. Cozart
scored again to make it 4-1 in the
fifth on a groundout by Bruce.
Halton’s homer pulled Milwaukee within 4-2 in the bottom of the fifth.
Cincinnati scored twice in
the seventh off Hand to make it
6-2 on RBI singles from Phillips
and Bruce.
Notes: Brewers OFs Ryan Braun
(sore left thumb) and Norichika
Aoki (left elbow tightness) were
out of the lineup. They are expected to start Thursday at Arizona.
… Reds LHP Sean Marshall, on
the DL with shoulder soreness,
threw a 42-pitch bullpen session
Tuesday and said he felt no soreness on Wednesday. He said there
is no timetable to begin a minorleague rehab assignment. … Reds
OF Chris Heisey was wearing a
compression sleeve on his left
arm Wednesday after being hit by
a fastball from RHP Wily Peralta
on Tuesday night. He was out of
the Reds lineup.

er’s guilty plea last year to having sex
with an underage ex-student. Gingras
told jurors that lies Jones acknowledged she told involving her relationship with the teen were relevant to
her credibility.
Deters said Richie is the one on

trial and jurors shouldn’t consider
Jones’ actions related to the criminal
case. Jones was allowed to avoid jail
time with her plea, but was forbidden from teaching again. Jones, 28,
still has a relationship with the now
18-year-old former student, and they
have said they plan to marry.
Jones must prove the posts were sub-

stantially false and that Richie knew the
comments were false when they were
posted or had serious doubts about
their truthfulness.
Gingras said his client could not
know whether the posts were true or
false when he posted them.
Jurors may also award damages to
Jones if they find in her favor.

about how strong he is on discipline, and then things go wrong,
people get all over him — when
actually he’s no different from anybody else,” said former Florida State
coach Bobby Bowden, who went 0-5
against Meyer’s Gators and considers his old rival a friend.
Meyer certainly didn’t pick up
many fans at rival schools during his
time at Florida. His Gators feasted on
most of the Southeastern Conference
and dominated the school’s fiercest
rivals. Against Georgia, Tennessee
and Florida State, Meyer went 16-2
and showed no mercy in doing so.
When Meyer resigned for a second time as Gators coach — but this
time for good — after an 8-5 2010
season to address health issues and
spend more time with his family,
many Florida fans felt abandoned
and betrayed by him.
He left Gainesville with the program

trending down, went to work for ESPN
during his season away from coaching,
and was introduced as coach of the
Buckeyes in his home state of Ohio less
than a year after he quit at Florida.
“That comes with the territory,”
Bowden told the AP in a phone interview Tuesday.
“How many times can you think of
a successful coach leaving a school
and that school not feeling some animosity toward him?”
The Hernandez case has provided
an opportunity to re-visit Meyer’s
record, and also to note that despite
his proclamations, not all was right
with the Gators. A case can be made
that Meyer was a) lax when it came
to discipline, and, b) willing to take
on players of questionable character.
“Every coach has some skeletons in
his closet somewhere,” Bowden said.
And right now, Meyer’s is being
inspected.

the hotel room a little bit.”
The course was pummeled by a
violent rainstorm after the players
hustled away once the day’s play
was called off. It appeared creeks
came to life where there weren’t
ones before — in the middle of
the ninth green there was a deep
flow of water. The practice putting green looked more like a small
pond. In low spots, like the valley
in the middle of the 10th fairway, it
appeared there was a river running
through it.
The 21-year-old Richmond, who
also had a hole in one in his glittering opening round, is being
pursued by 2010 winner Michael
Bernard, an Ohio State player from
Huber Heights, and Andrew Dorn,
a junior at Coastal Carolina from
West Chester.
Chase Wilson, a former High
Point College player from Zanesville, completed his first round
early on Wednesday and finished
with a 67. He had just gotten
started with his next 18 when the
weather hit.
“The conditions were actually
good for as wet as the course is,”
Wilson said. “There’s some stand-

ing water in spots. But the course
is actually standing up well.”
That was before the downpour
late in the afternoon, however.
Also at 67 was Tyler Light of
nearby Massillon, who tied for low
amateur in last week’s Ohio Open
at Westfield Country Club.
Bowling Green graduate Parker
Hewit of Westfield Center was at
69, with Dublin’s Nathan Clark and
Akron’s Dan Belden the only other
players with subpar rounds.
The entire field was chasing
Richmond.
“That 63 out there gives him a little more cushion than I was expecting,” said ex-Ohio State player Kevin Grabeman, who was third a year
ago and had an opening 72. “We’ve
all got to make adjustments.”
The leader acknowledged a
shortened tournament made his
job easier.
“It’s definitely an advantage,”
Richmond said.
“It’s just like I played today and I
still have a three-shot lead.”
Mike Haynes of Gallipolis shot a
76 (40-36) on the opening day of
play.

Meyer

stops at Bowling Green and Utah.
“It still comes down to getting
guys to go as hard as they can, it
all comes down to getting guys to
graduate, to live right. At the end
of the day you want a bunch of players that are committed to the right
thing. And it’s not easy to get that.
It’s not easy. In 20-something years
of coaching, on one hand I can hold
the amount of teams that I’ve been
around the kids that do it the right
way. I’m not talking about a few, I’m
talking about the core of your team if
you do it the right way, and we’ve got
it here at Florida.”
Meyer set the bar high for his players and his program. When it failed
to meet those standards, he became
an easy target for his critics — of
which there are now many.
“When a coach starts talking

ond round — will then play starting
at 11 a.m.
When everyone has finished the
second round, there will be a cut to
the low 60 scores and ties. The survivors will return on Friday for the
final 18 holes.
It will mark the first time since
1990 at The Sharon Golf Club that
the prestigious event hasn’t gone a
full four rounds.
Warm, humid and dry weather
is forecast for both Thursday and
Friday.
Richmond, who wasn’t scheduled
to tee off until late in the afternoon,
was getting updates from a friend
who drew an earlier tee time on
Wednesday.
He said he got inclement weather
alerts on his phone and was aware
he probably wouldn’t even have to
leave his room.
Now he has a lot of time to kill.
“I’ll sit around and watch TV.
Hopefully there are some good
movies on, I guess,” he said with
a chuckle. “Other than that, I
don’t know. Just stay rested a
little bit, work on my putting in

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday,
July 11, 2013:
This year your temper could be
an issue, as you’ll learn to express
your feelings in a way that others can
understand. You tend to have a sweet
tooth, and will want to indulge yourself more as a result. The best part
of this year begins in late fall. If you
are single, someone important could
become a part of your life history.
If you are attached, your charisma
increases — and with it, your attentiveness to your sweetie. VIRGO can
be fussy and critical at times.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHHH You might want to make
a tremendous effort to complete a
project that has been on the back
burner for a while. People sense your
confidence, and they will make the
decision to go along with your ideas.
You finally feel supported! Tonight:
Any reason works for celebration.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH You might not have to venture far. You could do your shopping
via the Internet and enjoy the luxury
of taking your time. Your creativity
surges to an unprecedented level.
You feel good no matter what you do.
Tonight: Totally in the moment and
ready for the weekend.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You might need more feedback. You know what you want, and
you are likely to pursue it impulsively,
without thinking first. If someone
points out a potential liability, listen
carefully. You will see the problem
once it is identified. Tonight: All
smiles, and happy to be home.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH You might be trying to get
the best price possible for a particular item. Try to postpone your
decision for a while, because there
could be a sale in the near future.
Communication picks up in the
afternoon; you’ll like what you hear.
Tonight: Think “weekend.”
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHH Put the finishing touches on
a project. Move quickly and efficiently,
as by late afternoon, you might need
to handle a financial situation or follow through on a hunch. Do not allow
someone to distract you. Tonight:
Take care of an errand or two on the
way home.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHHH You might be doing more
than your usual amount of questioning. You have a drive to launch a
project but, for whatever reason, you
have done little so far. A meeting
proves to be very important. You will
feel a sense of camaraderie. Tonight:
Where your friends are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH You could feel a little tired
and overworked. You have a way of
making your mark. Your insightfulness
comes from asking questions — just
make sure they’re the right ones.
Your power of observation will come
through. Tonight: All eyes turn to you.
Now what are you going to do?
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Deal with a partner who is
determined to share his or her viewpoint. Later, when you stop to ponder
where this person was coming from,
you will see the rationale behind his
or her thoughts. Be sure to keep an
open mind. Tonight: Consider a getaway this weekend or next.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHH Others seek you out. In order
to accomplish what you desire, you
might want to screen your calls. Listen
well to a partner who can help you
carry out a certain project much faster. This likely will be the only person
you should open the door for. Tonight:
Wind down with a friend.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHH Dive into work; the grueling details of a meeting need to be
handled quickly. By midafternoon, you
will reach out to someone with whom
you want to speak. Hopefully you
have some extra time in your schedule. Tonight: Continue an important
conversation over dinner.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHH When you defer to others,
you seem to have better results. Push
a creative concept forward before
lunch, if possible. Others will hear you
better then, though it might take a day
or two for them to make an assessment. Deal with a partner directly.
Tonight: Spend time with a loved one.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHH Getting going might be difficult in regard to a personal situation. You might believe that you can
handle it right now if you could stop
and make the time. Tap into you creativity, and request the help of a close
friend. This person’s ideas could help.
Tonight: Let more fun in.
