Sheriff Keith Wood reports that deputies responded to 39783 Union Avenue on information of a possible methamphetamine lab. Upon arriving at the residence, deputies walking to the door noticed chemicals used in the manufacturing of methamphetamine lying in the front of a vehicle parked at the residence. Arrested at the scene were Kelly Marcinko, 39, and Jennifer K. Morris, 32, both of whom lived at the residence, along with Kim- Jennifer Morris Kimberly D. Haley Dusti J. Belcher Kelly Marcinko berly D. Haley, 34, of Pomeroy, and Dusti J. Belcher, 29, of West Columbia, W.Va. All four individuals are being charged with illegal possession of chemicals used to manufac- ture methamphetamine, a felony of the third degree. Morris, Haley and Belcher are being housed in the Washington County Jail, and Marcinko is being held at the Middleport Jail. Assisting at the scene was the Middleport Police Department, Pomeroy Police Department and the Pomeroy Fire Department. The four individuals charged in the two methamphetamine labs last week made initial appearances late last week in Meigs County Court. Norma J. Ratliff, 39, and Ashley L. Hamilton, 29, were arrested on Thursday night following the discovery of a four pot lab at Ratliff’s Story’s Run Road residence.

POMEROY — The the summer heat expected to top 90 degrees for the next several days, Meigs County Dog Warden Tom Proffitt reminds dog owner to make sure their dogs have fresh water throughout the day. Proffitt added that dogs should also not be left in vehicles due to the extreme heat which can build in just a matter of minutes. The American Kennel Club website provides a variety of warnings and tips for pet owners in the summer heat. If the dog is outside on a hot day, make sure it has a shady spot to rest in. Doghouses are not good shelter during the summer as they can trap heat. Never leave your dog in a closed vehicle on a hot day. The temperature inside a car can rise to over 100 degrees in a matter of minutes. Always provide plenty of cool, fresh water. Avoid strenuous exercise on extremely hot days. Take walks in the early mornings or evenings, when the sun’s heat is less intense. Try to avoid prolonged exposure to hot asphalt or sand, which can burn your dog’s paws. Dogs that are brachycephalic (short-faced), such as Bulldogs, Boxers, Japanese Chins, and Pekingese, have an especially hard time in the heat because they do not pant as efficiently as longer-faced dogs. Keep your brachycephalic dog inside with air-conditioning. The website also advises dog owners to be on the lookout for symptoms of heatstroke and the ways to treat it. Heatstroke can be the serious and often fatal result of a dog’s prolonged exposure to excessive heat. Signs of heatstroke include, (early stages) Heavy panting; rapid breathing; excessive drooling; bright red gums and tongue; standing 4-square, posting or spreading out in an attempt to maintain balance; (advanced stages) White or blue gums; lethargy, unwillingness to move; uncontrollable urination or defecation; labored, noisy breathing; shock. If the dog begins to exhibit signs of heatstroke, you should immediately try to cool the dog down by, apply rubbing alcohol to the dog’s paw pads; apply ice packs to the groin area; hose down with water; allow the dog to lick ice chips or drink a small amount of water; offer Pedialyte to restore electrolytes. Check the dog’s temperature regularly during this process. Once the dog’s temperature has stabilized at between 100 to 102 degrees, you can stop the cool-down process. If you cannot get the dog cooled down and you begin to see signs of advanced heatstroke, take the dog to the veterinarian immediately.

(AP) — Two months after a vote that accepted openly gay boys as Scouts, officials for the Boy Scouts of America say they’ve put the issue aside and are focused on their 10-day national Jamboree. Some 30,000 Scouts and their leaders arrived Monday at the Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve in southern West Virginia. Thousands more staff and volunteers have been at the 1,000-acre site since last week. Months of divisive debate led to May’s vote by the BSA’s National Council to allow gay Scouts to participate while keeping a ban on gay adults. The policy change is effective next January. “We don’t see any changes in the way we do things at the jamboree at all,” Wayne Brock, the BSA’s chief executive, told The Associated Press. “We don’t see where it would have any kind of impact.” With much negative attention directed toward the Boy Scouts in recent months, Brock said the hope is that the Jamboree proves to be a big, positive event. “People are going to see kids getting together, having a great time and learning,” Brock said. “That’s what the public will see is what Scouting is really all about.” BSA national president Wayne Perry said Scouting leaders have been too active to reflect much on the decision. “We’ve debated this issue, but we’ve moved on,” Perry said. As Scouts get settled into their tents on six base camps and dive into the dozens of amenities that include whitewater rafting, mountain and BMX biking, and rock climbing, national BSA spokesman Deron Smith said the orga- nization is unaware of any openly gay Scouts attending the Jamboree, noting “we do not proactively inquire about the sexuality of Scouts, or leaders.” But Pascal Tessier, 16, of Kensington, Md., an openly gay scout who isn’t attending the Jamboree because of prior commitments, said some of his gay friends who are Scouts are attending. “I don’t think they’re too worried about anything happening there,” he said. “They’ve already been accepted. But they’re also not making a big deal about it. They’re regular Scouts.” Tessier believes it’s inevitable that Scouts will discuss the BSA’s decision at the Jamboree. “Not officially, but by themselves,” he said. Scout officials said they’re unaware of any scheduled protests at the Jamboree. Rich Ferraro of GLAAD, formerly known as the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, said the media watchdog group has no planned events around the Jamboree and is continuing work to end the Scouts’ ban on gay adults. “The Boy Scouts took an important first step, but there’s still a long way to go,” Ferraro said. Earlier this year, GLAAD led a successful campaign to get two musical acts — Carly Rae Jepsen and Train — to drop their planned appearances at the summer event. Jamboree officials have not announced the act for a July 20 concert. John Paterson and John Bode from the Pikes Peak Council in Colorado Springs, Colo., helped bring 50 Scouts to West Virginia on Monday. Paterson is at his seventh Jamboree. And it will be his last because of the vote to allow gay Scouts and the push to include gay adults and others. “It will effectively change Scouting forever. It has,” Paterson said. “And not just because of what the ramifications are. Eagle Scouts will be in next, and then gay leaders. It’s a ripple effect. It will happen. It may take three years. I think it will happen pretty quickly.” Paterson said the parents of one of his Scouts also said they’re dropping out of the organization over the vote. Bode, who previous attended a Jamboree as a youth in 1977, said he’ll stick with the Scouts — for now. He has younger boys in Scouting, so he’d like to see them continue into Eagle Scouts. Eagle Scout Zach Wahls, an activist raised by lesbian mothers in Iowa, is executive director of Scouts for Equality, a group he started last summer whose membership has grown to more than 15,000. Wahls said despite the policy change, “99 things out of 100 will continue to be the same for the Boy Scouts of America. And I think it’s important for everybody to remember that. As far as our expectations, we hope it’s a great Jamboree.” John Stemberger, a conservative activist and former Scout from Florida who led a group opposing the policy change, said he expects to see openly gay activism at the Jamboree. He questioned how leaders will handle the issue of tenting of “boys who openly announce their attraction to other boys.” Stemberger founded a national coalition of parents, Scoutmasters, Eagle Scouts, donors and other BSA members working to create an alternative program to the Boy Scouts. Convention becomes memorial for Monteith (AP) — What was supposed to be a weekend celebration of the musical TV series “Glee” turned into an impromptu memorial of song and dance for Cory Monteith after news of the “Glee” co-star’s death rocked a “Glee” fan convention in England. The hundreds of “gleeks,” as they’re known, joined a chorus of thousands worldwide who took to social media with similar expressions about Monteith’s passing. The actor’s struggles with addiction echoed those of other young stars whose premature deaths also left young fans grieving. “The whole day was simultaneously the best and worst experience of my life,” said Chloe Harvey, an 18-year-old fan from Portsmouth, England. “The news was devastating. No one had any idea what to say or do. It just shows how much of a truly amazing guy Cory was that everyone was so shocked and emotional about the news. Everyone was crying and sharing their stories.” Monteith, 31, was found dead in his Vancouver, British Columbia, hotel room on Saturday, according to police, who said an autopsy was taking place Monday. Police have ruled out foul play. With no obvious cause of death, the British Columbia Coroners Service said it will do further testing to determine how he died. It could take several days before toxicology test results are in. Sgt. Randy Fincham said there’s nothing to indicate the death was due to illicit drug use. Police said Monteith had been out with people earlier, but video and electronic records from the hotel indicated he returned to his room by himself early Saturday morning. He was believed to be alone when he died. The Fox network and the producers of “Glee,” including 20th Century Fox Television, called Monteith an exceptional performer “and an even more exceptional person.” They said he was “a true joy to work with and we will all miss him tremendously.” Lea Michele, Monteith’s “Glee” co-star and reallife girlfriend, asked for privacy upon hearing the news of his death. Monteith’s passing recalls the lives of Heath Ledger, Corey Haim and River Phoenix — actors who battled substance abuse and died in their 20s and 30s. Monteith talked bluntly about struggling with addiction since W.Va. Scout park supported 850 jobs MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Construction of a permanent home for the national Boy Scout Jamboree has pumped nearly $170 million in income into the southern West Virginia economy over the past four years, according to an economic-impact report released Monday. The report by SYNEVA Economics of Asheville, N.C., says about $121 million went directly into the community, while another $48 million was an indirect result of construction spending moving through the community. It also says the Summit Bechtel Reserve near Oak Hill has supported an average of 848 jobs between 2010 and 2013, mostly in the construction industry. Those jobs helped boost local employment indirectly, mainly affecting the utility, restaurant and health care industries. Tens of thousands of people are arriving for the first jamboree to be held in West Virginia. It runs through July 24, becoming what Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin says will briefly be the state’s third-largest city. But Tomblin says the economic payoff from the park is far from over. He anticipates the Boy Scouts will expand their facilities as word filters out and the organization gears up for the world Jamboree in 2019, the first ever to be held on U.S. soil. As the first 40,000 scouts and leaders go home and tell their friends about the experience, he said, “we would expect that number to grow.” Already, the Boy Scouts of America is projecting some 80,000 people will attend the 2019 event, Tomblin said. That means they’ll need to clear more campsites and build more structures, including shower houses and restrooms. “They got the main things done,” he said, “…but there’s still a lot of development to be done down there.” Since 1981, the Boy Scouts has held its annual jamboree at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia. But that required the dismantling and rebuilding of structures every four years. The organization studied more than 80 possible sites in 28 states before choosing Fayette County for the jamboree’s permanent home.

Gorge and features activities ranging from zip lines, kayaking and mountain bike courses to archery and shooting ranges. Opening ceremonies for the jamboree are set for Tuesday. The SYNEVA report says every dollar spent at the site caused an increase of $1.54 in local economic output. It estimates the project already has generated $45.1 million in tax revenues in the four-year construction period, $29.3 million of that for the federal government and some $15.8 million for state and local governments. Tomblin says Summit Bechtel is another way for West Virginia to show the world what it has to offer. Scouting and corporate leaders from around the world will be coming to the state for the first time this week, he said. “Hopefully, the word of mouth resonates and they go home and say, ‘Wow, we didn’t think of West Virginia’ as a place to go,” he said. The Boy Scouts of America has committed to using the site yearround and making it available for things like corporate retreats and team-building adventures. he was a teenager, calling it a serious problem and telling Parade magazine in 2011 he was “lucky to be alive.” Monteith admitted himself to a treatment facility in April for substance addiction and asked for privacy as he took steps toward recovery, a representative said at the time. Michele told People magazine that she loved and supported him and was proud he was seeking help. It was not Monteith’s first time in rehab. He also received treatment when he was 19. “I think kids really need a place to go and feel like they belong,” he said in the video posted the site for Project Limelight, a Vancouver charity offering theater and arts programs to at-risk youth. “When I was a kid, I struggled a lot with who I was and where my life was going and what I was interested in. And I was fortunate to have the arts inspire me.” Monteith similarly moved fans. At the weekend “Glee” convention, instead of planned revelry like singing competitions and autograph sessions with actors who’ve played members of the rival Warblers glee club, organizers Starfury Conventions rescheduled the final day of the three-day event at Heathrow’s Thistle Hotel so the 250 attendees could mourn him together. “We all woke up to hear the story, and no one really wanted to believe it was true,” said Chloe-Louise Bond, a 22-year-old fan from Wakefield, England. “Walking into the main room, you could just feel the tragedy in the air, absolute strangers became a family right in that moment. Everyone was crying and hugging and just trying to get over the shock.” It was a day filled with sadness and songs. The attendees chanted “Cory! Cory! Cory!” In unison, they sang tunes like “Don’t Stop Believin’,” the Journey cover crooned by Monteith in the high school-set musical’s first episode. Curt Mega, Telly Leung and other actors who’ve played Warblers led a group discussion with fans about their memories of Monteith. “Glee,” with its catchy song-anddance numbers and high-profile guest stars like Gwyneth Paltrow and Britney Spears, became an instant hit when it debuted in 2009 and made celebrities of Montieth and the rest of the relatively unknown cast. Over the past four seasons, he delivered renditions of such classics as U2’s “One” and R.E.M.’s “Losing My Religion.” BURIED in CREDIT CARDDEBT? Over $10,000 in credit card bills?

Engineers from Silicon Valley tinkered with the software on a laptop to ensure the machine was eliminating the right leafy buds. The engineers were testing the Lettuce Bot, a machine that can “thin” a field of lettuce in the time it takes about 20 workers to do the job by hand. The thinner is part of a new generation of machines that target the last frontier of agricultural mechanization — fruits and vegetables destined for the fresh market, not processing, which have thus far resisted mechanization because they’re sensitive to bruising. Researchers are now designing robots for these most delicate crops by integrating advanced sensors, powerful computing, electronics, computer vision, robotic hardware and algorithms, as well as networking and high precision GPS localization technologies. Most ag robots won’t be commercially available for at least a few years. In this region known as America’s Salad Bowl, where for a century fruits and vegetables have been planted, thinned and harvested by an army of migrant workers, the machines could prove revolutionary. Farmers say farm robots could provide relief from recent labor shortages, lessen the unknowns of immigration reform, even reduce costs, increase quality and yield a more consistent product. “There aren’t enough workers to take the available jobs, so the robots can come and alleviate some of that problem,” said Ron Yokota, a farming operations manager at Tanimura & Antle, the Salinas-based fresh produce company that owns the field where the Lettuce Bot was being tested. Many sectors in U.S. agriculture have relied on machines for decades and even the harvesting of fruits and vegetables meant for processing has slowly been mechanized. But nationwide, the vast majority of fresh-market fruit is still harvested by hand. Research into fresh produce mechanization was dormant for years because of an over-abundance of workers and pressures from farmworker labor unions. In recent years, as the labor supply has tightened and competition from abroad has increased, growers have sought out machines to reduce labor costs and supplement the nation’s unstable agricultural workforce. The federal government, venture capital companies and commodity boards have stepped up with funding. “We need to increase our efficiency, but nobody wants to work in the fields,” said Stavros G. Vougioukas, professor of biological and agricultural engineering at the University of California, Davis. But farmworker advocates say mechanization would lead to workers losing jobs, growers using more pesticides and the food supply becoming less safe. “The fundamental question for consumers is who and, now, what do you want picking your food; a machine or a human, who with the proper training and support, can” … take significant steps to ensure a safer, higher quality product, said Erik Nicholson, national vice president of the United Farm Workers of America.

After a lettuce field is planted, growers typically hire a crew of farmworkers who use hoes to remove excess plants to give space for others to grow into full lettuce heads. The Lettuce Bot uses video cameras and visual-recognition software to identify which lettuce plants to eliminate with a squirt of concentrated fertilizer that kills the unwanted buds while enriching the soil. Blue River, which has raised more than $3 million in venture capital, also plans to develop machines to automate weeding — and eventually harvesting — using many of the same technologies. Another company, San Diego-based Vision Robotics, is developing a similar lettuce thinner as well as a pruner for wine grapes. The pruner uses robotic arms and cameras to photograph and create a computerized model of the vines, figure out the canes’ orientation and the location of buds — all to decide which canes to cut down. Fresh fruit harvesting remains the biggest challenge. Machines have proved not only clumsy, but inadequate in selecting ripe produce. In addition to blunders in deciphering color and feel, machines have a hard time distinguishing produce from leaves and branches. And most importantly, matching the dexterity and speed of farmworkers has proved elusive. The Associated Press MANTOLOKING, N.J. — With all the fears that Superstorm Sandy created, here’s one that never materialized: huge tax increases to make up for property destroyed along the coastlines of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut. Waves of federal aid, some strategic borrowing, lowered property values and surplus accounts helped many shore communities avoid having to raise taxes drastically to compensate for the lost tax revenue. But the sighs of relief are mixed with early jitters of what could happen next year, when the tide of emergency storm aid will have receded and full rebuilding will still elude some neighborhoods. The thinking was that because shore towns had lost so much taxable property in the Oct. 29 storm, governments would have no choice but to raise taxes on surviving structures to make up the difference. But that was before Congress approved more than $60 billion in Sandy relief, most of it for New Jersey and New York. “We were all concerned there would be a big tax increase,” said Ray Ryan, a resident of Mantoloking, a Jersey shore town where virtually every one of its 521 homes was destroyed or damaged. “But we are delighted it didn’t. It makes absolutely wonderful sense when you consider the storm aid that was available.” The affluent borough adopted a 14.6 percent increase in the municipal tax rate. But because the storm lowered property values and because of an influx of storm recovery aid and borrowing, most municipal tax bills will actually be lower this year. “That’s the good news: Taxes in 2013 will be lower,” said Councilman Steve Gillingham. “But because these are nonrecurring revenues, it may be hard in subsequent years to provide the same level of services.” The budget calls for $5.6 million in spending, up from just over $4 million last year. But the average tax bill will actually be 23 percent less than last year because storm damage caused property values to plunge by about a third. For example, the owner of a house previously assessed at $1 million and now worth $670,000 because of storm damage will pay $1,398 in municipal taxes, down from $1,817 a year ago. The owners of a $3 million home now worth about $2 million would pay $4,186 in municipal taxes, down from $5,450 last year. Those figures do not include school or county taxes and are the only ones over which municipalities have direct control. Homeowners in many towns may still see an overall increase in taxes because of 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.

Lance White, a Mantoloking resident who is raising his damaged waterfront house, was relieved to hear taxes would not skyrocket this year. “It would have been a disaster,” he said. “We have a lot of people who still don’t know what their future is — whether they can rebuild, when, whether they might have to leave. There is still a lot of uncertainty. Everything worries you when you don’t know what’s going to happen. It’s been difficult here for several months now.” In community after community, municipal taxes are either staying the same this year or going up only very slightly. Money towns had to front out-of-pocket in the fall and winter for emergency cleanup and reconstruction will eventually be paid back by the federal government by as much as 90 percent. New York state passed legislation to aid badly affected homeowners, authorizing New York City to reimburse them by up to two-thirds of the total bill paid for the 2013 fiscal year. In May, the city announced a decrease in property taxes due next year through reassessments of damaged properties and across-the-board reductions in valuations for some of the hardest-hit neighborhoods. On Long Island, Long Beach saw its 2-mile boardwalk destroyed and homes inundated with as much as 4 feet of water. The city cut its 2013-14 budget from $85.1 million to $83.3 million, spokesman Gordon Tepper said. Lost sales tax and other revenues from beach passes and access to other recreational events were lower because of the effects of Sandy, he said. That will mean a moderate property tax increase of 1.49 percent, or an average of $43 per home. Long Beach has already received $24.3 million in reimbursement for debris removal. In Connecticut, the $278 million Fairfield budget raised taxes 2.4 percent. Officials say they were able to offset storm costs with increases in revenue from other areas and are counting on federal reimbursement of 75 percent of the estimated $8 million in damage. Belmar was the first Jersey shore town to rebuild its boardwalk, making an aggressive bid to be ready when summer tourism started. It is not raising its municipal tax rate for the third year in a row. The town was able to do it, Mayor Matt Doherty said, with the help of a federal Community Disaster loan, a funding mechanism being used by many Sandy-hit towns this year that can be repaid over variable lengths of time and may even be forgiven by the feds.

AG calls Martin killing an ‘unnecessary shooting’ WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday called the killing of Trayvon Martin a “tragic, unnecessary shooting,” and said the Justice Department will follow “the facts and the law” as it reviews evidence to see whether federal criminal charges are warranted. In his first comments since the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Martin case, the attorney general said the 17-year-old’s death provides an opportunity for the nation to speak honestly about complicated and emotionally charged issues. He said the nation must not forgo an opportunity toward better understanding of one another. On Sunday, the Justice Department said it is reviewing evidence in the case to determine whether criminal civil rights charges would be brought. The department opened an investigation into Martin’s death last year but stepped aside to allow the state prosecution to proceed. Holder said, “We are … mindful of the pain felt by our nation surrounding the tragic, unnecessary shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Fla., last year.” The attorney general’s characterization of the killing drew strong applause from the audience at the 51st national convention of the Delta Sigma Theta, the nation’s largest Afri- can-American sorority. “Independent of the legal determination that will be made, I believe that this tragedy provides yet another opportunity for our nation to speak honestly about the complicated and emotionally charged issues that this case has raised,” Holder said. “We must not — as we have too often in the past — let this opportunity pass,” he added. “I hope that we will approach this necessarily difficult dialogue with the same dignity that those who have lost the most, Trayvon’s parents, have demonstrated throughout the last year — and especially over the past few days,” said Holder. “They suffered a pain that no parent should have to endure — and one that I, as a father, cannot begin to conceive.” The Justice Department says the criminal section of the agency’s civil rights division, along with the FBI and federal prosecutors in Florida, are all continuing to evaluate the evidence generated during the federal investigation, plus evidence and testimony from the state trial. The NAACP and others are calling on the Justice Department to file civil rights charges against Zimmerman. Thousands of demonstrators from across the country protested the jury’s decision to clear Zimmerman in the shooting death of the unarmed black teenager. Also on Monday, the White House said President Barack Obama won’t involve himself in the Justice Department decision on whether to pursue civil rights charges against Zimmerman. White House spokesman Jay Carney said it would be inappropriate for Obama to express an opinion on how the department deals with Zimmerman. Barbara Arnwine, president and executive director of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, called the verdict “a travesty and miscarriage of justice” and urged the Justice Department to bring criminal civil rights charges against Zimmerman. Death penalty Obama praises HW Bush for volunteer initiative issue for potential Fort Hood jurors FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — Prosecutors asked Monday that three Army officers be dismissed as potential jurors in the murder trial of the Fort Hood shooting suspect because the soldiers indicated that they opposed the death penalty. Six potential jurors — four colonels and two lieutenant colonels — were brought in from Army posts nationwide and overseas as questioning continued in the courtmartial of Maj. Nidal Hasan. The Army psychiatrist faces execution or life in prison without parole if convicted in the 2009 rampage that left 13 dead and nearly three dozen wounded on the Texas Army post. Hasan, 42, is serving as his own attorney. Ten potential jurors remain from a group of 20 questioned last week, when jury selection began. The judge, Col. Tara Osborn, brought one colonel out for individual questioning before lunch. He said he struggled with the death penalty issue over moral and religious grounds. “I question whether fallible human beings can impose death on other human beings,” he said. Osborn is expected to rule later Monday on prosecutors’ requests to dismiss the three. After the jurors were questioned as a group Monday, prosecutors requested that the three officers be dismissed. They noted that all three had indicated — in court or in jury questionnaires — that they opposed the death penalty and wouldn’t be able to put aside those views if Hasan were found guilty. Two of the three also said they already believe Hasan is guilty. Hasan’s jury will be comprised of 13 to 16 members with ranks equal to his or higher. Death-penalty cases in the military require at least 12 jurors, more than in other cases. And unlike other trials, their verdict must be unanimous in finding guilt or assessing a sentence. Testimony is expected to start Aug. 6. Earlier Monday, Osborn told the group that Hasan was wearing a camouflage uniform worn by troops in combat instead of a dress uniform — usually worn by defendants in a court-martial — because it better meets his healthrelated needs as a paraplegic. Osborn told potential jurors not to hold his type of uniform against him. Hasan was paralyzed from the abdomen down after being shot by police the day of the rampage. Osborn also told the group Hasan was wearing a beard for his religious beliefs and not to hold it against him. Although facial hair violates Army rules, Hasan started growing a beard last summer, saying it was required by his Muslim faith. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama welcomed President George H.W. Bush to the White House on Monday in a salute to public service and to the drive for volunteerism that the 41st president inspired with his “thousand points of light” initiative more than two decades ago. “We are surely a kinder and gentler nation because of you,” Obama told the elder Bush, who sat in a room filled with his friends and former aides. The first President Bush — “41,” he often calls himself — came to attend a ceremony Obama was holding to recognize the 5,000th Daily Point of Light Award. The award’s name comes from the description in his 1989 inaugural address of Americans serving each other as “a thousand points of light.” Thanks to Bush, Obama said, “volunteerism has gone from something that some people do some of the time to something that lots of people do as a regular part of their lives.” Bush responded briefly, thanking the Obamas for their “wonderful hospitality,” and leaving his son Neil Bush to offer more extended remarks. In addition to Neil Bush, the former president was joined by his wife, Barbara, the former first lady; and Michelle Nunn, CEO of the Points of Light organization and a possible Democratic Senate candidate from Georgia. She’s the daughter of former Sen. Sam Nunn, D-Ga. President George W. Bush, the 41st president’s son, did not attend. Obama and first lady Michelle Obama and the Bushes had lunch in the Red Room before the ceremony. Obama announced creation of a federal task force to come up with new ways for the public and private sectors to collaborate to support national service as a means of tackling national priorities. In the past year, the Corporation for National and Community Service, sponsor of the AmeriCorps national service program, launched partnerships with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Education Department. The 1,600-member FEMA Corps has the sole mission of responding to disasters. School Turnaround AmeriCorps will send 650 volunteers into low-performing schools this fall to help improve academic achievement, attendance, high school graduation rates, and college and career readiness. Both presidents share a commitment to volunteerism and service. Bush, 89, established the Daily Point of Light Award in 1990 while in office. More than 1,000 of the awards were distributed between 1989 and 1993, Bush’s single term as the nation’s 41st president. Through its offices around the country and relationships with nonprofit groups and corporations, the Points of Light organization encourages millions of people to volunteer and recognizes those it says are making a difference. The recipients of the 5,000th Point of Light Award were Floyd Hammer and Kathy Hamilton, a retired couple and farm owners from Union, Iowa, who created Outreach, a nonprofit organization that delivers free meals to children suffering from hunger in more than 15 countries, including the United States. They launched the program after a trip to Tanzania, where they visited a volunteer mission to help renovate an HIV/AIDS clinic at a village hospital and saw children dying from malnutrition. The couple’s program has relied on thousands of volunteers to help assemble and distribute more than 232 million free meals to children worldwide, the White House said. Obama also has made volunteerism a theme of his presidency. In 2009, he signed legislation to more than triple the size of the AmeriCorps program from 75,000 volunteers to 250,000 by 2017. Several times a year, including on the Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday and before Thanksgiving, Obama and his family help out at area food kitchens and community service projects. Mrs. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden’s wife, Jill, also lead a national drive to encourage the public to devote time to helping military families. The first president Bush has made several visits to the Obama White House. He stopped in twice last year, in January when he and son Jeb, the former Florida governor, were in town for the annual Alfalfa Club dinner, and in May for the unveiling of George W. Bush’s official portrait. During a White House ceremony in 2011, Obama recognized Bush’s lifetime of public service with a Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. The two last saw each other in April at the dedication of George W. Bush’s presidential library in Dallas. White House press secretary Jay Carney said Obama holds the Bush family in “very high regard” and looked forward to the ceremony. Another reason to look forward to the event? To see Bush’s socks. The 41st president has become known for brightening his otherwise staid attire by wearing colorful socks. He pulled on a pair of Superman socks to celebrate his 89th birthday last month. At the dedication of his son’s presidential library, Bush set off his gray suit with pink socks. On Monday, he wore bright red and white striped socks. “We call him GQ man,” Neil Bush joked. Arrested From Page 1 Both Ratliff and Hamilton are charged with illegal manufacturing of methamphetamine, a felony of the second degree. Bond for both was set at $10,000. Attorney Trenton Cleland was appointed to represent Ratliff, and Charles Knight was appointed to represent Hamilton. Ratliff is out on bond, while Hamilton remains in the Middleport Jail. Ratliff has a prior conviction from Meigs County Common Pleas Court from charges stemming from a 2007 methamphetamine lab at the same residence. Hamilton also had an active warrant from Gallia County in a case involv- ing illegally manufacturing methamphetamine. She was arrested last August along with two other individuals at a residence on Story’s Run in Gallia County. She was indicted on one count of illegal manufacture of drugs, a felony of the first degree, and was scheduled to stand trial last month, but did not appear for a scheduled status conference hearing on June 3 according to court records. At that time, a warrant was issued for her arrest in the case. On Tuesday, John A. Ward, 48, of Pomeroy and Matthew T. Gilmore, 18, of Albany were arrested following the discovery of a one-pot reactionary ves- sel in a vehicle at Ward’s residence on Township Road 1004 in the Harrisonville area. Ward and Gilmore are charged with two counts of illegal manufacture of drugs, a felony of the second degree, according to Meigs County Court documents. Both Ward and Gilm- ore have been released on $10,000 bond. Attorney Charles Knight was appointed to represent Gilmore and Trenton Cleland was appointed to represent Ward. Preliminary hearings for Ratliff, Hamilton, Ward and Gilmore are scheduled for Thursday in Meigs County Court. �The Daily Sentinel TUESDAY, JULY 16, 2013 Sports mdssports@civitasmedia.com Young phenoms hit All-Star game NEW YORK (AP) — Flip on any highlight show and you’re almost sure to see them, with those peach-fuzz faces and boyish features beneath their big league caps. Mike Trout makes a diving catch on the warning track. Manny Machado whacks another double into the corner at Camden Yards. Bryce Harper belts a tape-measure home run or barrels into a catcher … or an outfield fence … or whatever stands in his way. The next generation of baseball stars has arrived — straight from the senior prom, it seems — and these guys are changing the complexion of the grand ol’ game. Derek Jeter is 39 and injured, left off the All-Star team for the first time in eight years. Matt Harvey is 24 and merciless, with a polished array of breaking pitches to complement 98 mph heat. “There’s definitely a different breed of ballplayer coming out,” Minnesota Twins manag- er Ron Gardenhire said. “This seems to be one of those cycles where a lot of young players are flashing quick.” No kidding. Trout and Harper, the Rookies of the Year last season, are making their second trip to the All-Star game. This time, they will be starting Tuesday night at Citi Field after getting elected by fans with a fervor for the new boys of summer. Some of baseball’s best players are among the youngest on the field. Night after night, they are putting up unprecedented numbers and turning in spectacular plays that belie a birth certificate from the 1990s. “It’s good for the game,” Trout said. “A lot of young guys are playing fearless and making a name for themselves at an early stage in their career.” Not only that, they are moving merchandise. Jersey sales for Harvey, Harper and Trout rank among the top 10 this season based on purchases of Majestic tops at MLB.com, said Major League Baseball and the players’ association last week. Harper is 20, and Trout is all of 21. Barely old enough to drive, let alone buy a drink. Machado’s jersey ranked eighth, one spot behind Jeter, even though the Baltimore third baseman has spent less than a year in the majors. That didn’t stop him from earning his first All-Star selection on his 21st birthday. Machado was voted in by playSee YOUNG ‌| 8 Pete Marovich | MCT photo Jordan Spieth acknowledges the crowd after he holed out for eagle on the par-4 1st hole at Congressional Country Club during the AT&T National in Bethesda, Maryland. David Eulitt | Kansas City Star | MCT photo Spieth surges to historic win Big names in track fail test for substances at Deere Classic A stunned Tyson Gay of the USA reacts following the men’s 100m sprint at Olympic Stadium during the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, England, Sunday, Aug. 5, 2012. Gay finished fourth in the race, and Bailey, fifth. Eddie Pells Pat Graham The Associated Press SILVIS, Ill. (AP) — It’s not hard to find some flaws in Jordan Spieth’s historic win at the John Deere Classic. Sure, most of the world’s top golfers were a continent away preparing for Muirfield and this week’s British Open. And yes, even Spieth knows luck was one of the major reasons why he became the first teenager in over eight decades to win on the PGA Tour. Spieth’s ascension, however, isn’t a fluke. The 19-year-old Texan simply affirmed why many view him as one of the world’s most promising young golfers. Spieth rallied from as many as seven shots down Sunday and took down Zach Johnson — a Masters winner and a defending champion playing in his hometown event — to notch his first career PGA Tour win in a grueling five-hole, three-man playoff. He did it by thinking like a kid — and playing like a future star. “This is my view on it, which is a 19-year-old’s view, so don’t hold me to it in a few years. But my view on it is you want to approach it the same way I approach being in contention in a college event,” said Spieth, just a year removed from a one-and-done career with the Longhorns that he finished as an All-American. “If you start thinking ahead, you start thinking Augusta, you start thinking playoffs, you start thinking winning, it’s difficult.” It’s hard to not start thinking ahead to the Masters, the FedEx Cup and more victories for Spieth after his run through the par-71 TPC Deere Run. The Dallas native, who was tied for second in Puerto Rico in March, opened the tournament with a 1-under 70. But once Spieth figured out the course, he notched three straight 65s to finish at 19-under 265 and give himself a chance at victory. The one stroke everyone will remember was certainly fortunate — and undoubtedly gutsy. Spieth was in a deep bunker to the right of the green on No. 18 at the end of regulation. Though there were groups Tyson Gay felt healthy for the first time in years and was aiming high: He planned to step on the track at world championships and push Usain Bolt. Not so fast. The anticipated 100-meter showdown got scrubbed after Gay, the American record holder in the event, failed a drug test for a banned substance. That revelation came Sunday, within hours of more bad news for track and field: Asafa Powell, the one-time world-record holder at 100 meters, and his Jamaican teammate, three-time Olympic medalist Sherone Simpson, tested positive for prohibited stimulants. A sport that vowed it had cleaned itself up after decades of stories about disgraced, drugfueled sprinters — Ben Johnson, Marion Jones, Tim Montgomery, to name a few — found itself in a very similar spot after this latest flurry of doping cases. “A sad day,” said Doug Logan, the former CEO at USA Track and Field. “But I don’t see anything on the horizon that says this will be abated in any way.” Gay chose to withdraw from next month’s world championships while his case plays out; the next step is a test of his “B” sample, which could come as early as this week. Simpson’s and Powell’s status remains in limbo. Simpson was eligible for the 100, while Powell was waiting to see if he’d make the relay team. “Will this be a cloud over (worlds)? I think it would be naive to say otherwise,” said Ato Boldon, a four-time Olympic medalist and sprint analyst. “I sat down and thought about the events I’m looking forward to. There are people who are not there, for all the wrong reasons. …” Long considered a nonconforming pot-stirrer, Logan recently wrote a column arguing that the fight against performance-enhancing drugs in sports should be surrendered because, in his view, anti-doping rules make very little headway against a problem that never seems to disappear. He said Sunday’s onslaught of failed tests only bolstered his point. “People ought to open up their eyes and see that there’s very little we’re doing that is keeping those who are motivated to use the substances from using them,” Logan said. The sprinters, meanwhile, offered apologies while also claiming extenuating circumstances. “I am not now — nor have I ever been — a cheat,” Powell said on his Twitter account. The 30-year-old sprinter, whose 100-meter record of 9.74 seconds stood until Jamaican teammate Bolt beat it in 2008, was calling for an investigation as to how a stimulant called oxilofrine entered his system and caused a positive test at Jamaica’s national championships in June. Simpson, who tested positive for the same stimulant, said she “would not intentionally take an illegal substance of any form into my system.” Gay was more contrite, though he also wasn’t taking full responsibility. “I don’t have a sabotage story. I don’t have any lies. I don’t have anything to say to make this seem like it was a mistake or it was on USADA’s hands, someone playing games,” said Gay, who fought back sobs in a telephone interview. “I don’t have any of those stories. I basically put my trust in someone and I was let down.” Gay was healthy again this season after being plagued by hamstring and groin ailments, along with a bad hip that required surgery. He conceded this news would be tough for his fans. “My reputation,” Gay said, “has always been honest.” The 30-year-old, who won the world championship in the 100, See TEST ‌| 8 See WIN ‌| 8 Haynes wins 2013 OVP Sports Briefs Riverside Amateur Staff Report MASON, W.Va. — Mike Haynes of Gallipolis captured the title in the 2013 Riverside Amateur held this past weekend in Mason.

Well, mostly elders, actually. He certainly deserved it at a power-packed position after hitting 39 doubles in the first half, threatening the single-season record of 67 set by Earl Webb in 1931. “In today’s era, young dudes are getting better and more prepared to come up to the big leagues,” said Orioles teammate Adam Jones, an All-Star himself. “It’s just an improvement in the game. These young dudes are phenoms, and he’s put his name up there. “He’s probably more mature than I am, and I’m 27.” Take a swing around the majors and you see it’s not only Trout, Harper and Machado. There is Miami rookie Jose Fernandez, a 20-yearold All-Star with a Cy Young future. Second-year shortstop Jean Segura in Milwaukee, who leads the NL in hits at age 23. Don’t forget lefty Patrick Corbin (23), 11-1 with a 2.35 ERA for Arizona. And of course, Harvey, the New York Mets ace who has 29 major league starts. “For me, he’s the best pitcher in the game,” Diamondbacks outfielder Cody Ross said. “Not even just in the National League. He’s really good. I faced a lot of those guys in the American League last year and I can’t say that I saw anyone better than him. “His mound presence is as good as you’ll see.” There are 12 All-Stars this season 24 or younger, seven in the National League. That’s the most since a dozen were selected in 1993, according to STATS — a group that included Ken Griffey Jr., Mike Piazza, Gary Sheffield, Mike Mussina and Juan Gonzalez. The only player from that bunch under 23 was 21-year-old catcher Ivan Rodriguez. This year, there are four. That doesn’t include Los Angeles Dodgers sensation Yasiel Puig, left out of the game after six electric weeks in the big leagues at 22. More to come from him, for sure. In all, 12 players who qualified as rookies last season made this All-Star game. So much for sophomore slumps. “It is kind of amazing the level that these young guys are playing,” said Yankees manager Joe Girardi, who is reminded of the mid-90s when Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Nomar Garciaparra broke in at shortstop in the American League. Although fresh faces are taking over, that doesn’t mean all the old guys are out. Mariano Rivera, Torii Hunter and Carlos Beltran are back, bringing decades of experience and wisdom. What impresses veterans the most about this group is the way these players carry themselves on and off the field. Harper occasionally flashes a hot temper with Washington, but opponents mostly praise them for their all-around skill and steady performance. “It’s different from when I first came up. Just the attention, the media coverage, the pressure,” said Twins catcher Joe Mauer, a No. 1 draft pick who made his first All-Star appearance at 23. “To keep everything in perspective and go out there and do your job every day and stay consistent is really what makes it pretty special. “A lot of guys can come up and have immediate success right away and the league can kind of figure you out a little bit. But those guys keep going day after day and keep producing.” From Page 6 ahead of him with golf yet to play, Spieth knew he probably needed to hole out to have a shot at a playoff. Spieth fired the ball at the pin. After a quick bounce, it pinged off the stick and dropped straight down in one of the more memorable shots in tournament history. Spieth then survived four holes in the playoff with Johnson and David Hearn before sinking a 2-footer for the win. “Now given, there was some luck involved. But to pull off the shot, it wasn’t a winning feeling, per se. The only winning feeling came after the 2-footer went in when I made sure that it stayed in the bottom of the hole, and didn’t somehow get out,” Spieth said. “No, it was just shock, surprise, really cool atmosphere and cool roars. I didn’t know how to react.” Spieth can be forgiven for that. What he accomplished was essentially unprecedented in the modern game. Spieth, who doesn’t turn 20 for another two weeks, is the first teenager to win since Ralph Guldahl took the Santa Monica Open in 1931. To put that in perspective, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Rory McIlroy were all older than Spieth when they picked up their first victories. Of course, to expect Spieth to match any of those star golfers in Muirfield this week would be unrealistic given his lack of experience. Still, the way Spieth earned his ticket to the British Open suggests that he might be more ready for that challenge than some might believe. “He’s mentally strong … it looks like he’s pretty gathered. He’s confident. He hit some great shots, obviously,” Johnson said. Test From Page 6 200 and 4x100 relay in 2007, took part in the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency’s “My Victory” program — in which athletes volunteer for enhanced testing to prove they’re clean — and his results never raised red flags. That changed after results of an out-of-competition test on May 16 came back positive. Neither Gay nor USADA CEO Travis Tygart would identify the banned substance. Generally, first-time offenders are hit with two-year bans, though reduced penalties are sometimes given if there are extenuating circumstances, which both Gay and his coach, Lance Brauman, said there were. “He mentioned that he (trusted) someone and that person was untrustworthy at the end the day,” Brauman told The Associated Press in a phone interview. “Maybe I’m naive, but I believe him.” Max Siegel, the CEO of USA Track and Field, said in a statement: “It is not the news anyone wanted to hear, at any time, about any athlete.” He said he looked to USADA to handle the case “appropriately.” While Gay’s case gets sorted out on U.S. turf, the positives recorded by Powell and Simpson are part of a bigger doping crisis hitting Jamaica, the home of Bolt and the country that has won 28 medals over the last three Olympics. In Sunday’s editions, The Gleaner newspaper of Jamaica reported that five athletes had tested positive. Paul Doyle, the agent who represents Powell and Simpson, confirmed to the AP that his sprinters were among them. Shortly after Doyle’s confirmation, Powell and Simpson each released statements acknowledging the positive tests. The news stirred up angst on the island, where success on the track is a point of pride, but the rigor of the country’s antidoping program is under constant scrutiny. “This does not augur well for track and field globally,” said Rashalee Mitchell, a 29-year-old assistant social sciences lecturer at Jamaica’s campus of the University of the West Indies. “It is fast serving to taint … our proud and long-standing reputation of producing strong, excellent, raw, homegrown talent that has excelled on the world stage without any drug-related enhancement.” The news came a month after another Jamaican Olympic gold medalist, Veronica CampbellBrown, tested positive for a banned diuretic. Campbell-Brown is being suspended while a disciplinary panel reviews her case. Track’s governing body said the case appeared to involve a “lesser” offense, which could mean a reduced sentence for the 200-meter champion at the 2004 and 2008 Olympics. Shortly after news of Campbell-Brown’s positives, her agent, Claude Bryan, said his client is not a cheat and she does not accept “guilt of willfully taking a banned substance.” Turns out, she’s not the only one making that claim during what is turning into another summer of discontent for track and field. “The one thing I am proud of is, unlike other sports, we have quite a good record, of no matter how big you are, you can get busted if you’re not doing things the right way, according to the rules,” Boldon said. “This is not a sport where if you’re a big name, necessarily, you’re protected.” Briefs From Page 6 For more information or to register, contact GAHS football coach Wade Bartholomew at (740) 412-0104.

You will feel like a kid in a candy store. Come winter 2013 into 2014, luck might play an even bigger role in your life. You will have the ability to merge good, solid sense with the luck from an invisible rabbit’s foot in your back pocket! If you are single, you could be attracted to someone older or more serious. Use care with commitments, because once you make one, it will be nearly impossible to get out of it. If you are attached, the two of you are likely to add a concrete manifestation of your caring. A fellow CANCER is a soul mate. 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) HHH Opportunity merges with a sense of responsibility, and your confidence is strengthened as a result. The path in which you choose to head has very good indicators of success. Remain sensitive to a family member who could be facing a difficult time. Tonight: Head home. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Your expectations of a project will be more than reasonable, especially following a very upbeat conversation. A partner or an associate will be on the same page as you, which will add extra pizazz and energy. You are on the same team. Tonight: Go where there is music. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Understand that the power you wield is a result of having competence, knowledge and financial backing. Ask someone to join your team in order to make a project better and easier on you. This person’s enthusiasm might surprise you. Tonight: Buy a card on the way home. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might not be aware of how responsive others are at the moment. You are like a locomotive, with the enthusiasm and energy. Others are like the rest of the train, with the expertise and knowledge. Together, you are a winning team. Tonight: Lighten up the moment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH You could be taken aback by someone’s stubbornness. The less said the better. You might be quite amused by this person’s attitude at first, but by evening, it could get old rather quickly. You will be a bit touchy by late afternoon. Tonight: Don’t hold back. Share your feelings. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You have a keen sense of direction, and you know what needs to happen. Use your strong support system to create more of what you desire. Someone is quite responsive to your ideas, and he or she will take a lot of the burden off your shoulders. Tonight: Have a long-overdue talk. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might want to take a good look at the basics before you move in a new direction and try to foster a seemingly good idea. If you can be honest with yourself, you might see a weakness in your finances. Weigh the impact of this issue before you act. Tonight: Time for a talk. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH What might have seemed difficult now seems much easier. Listen to news from someone at a distance. Evaluate what is happening, then decide if you want to take action.

One fan at Sunday’s game between the Cleveland Indians and Kansas City Royals at Progressive Field grabbed four foul balls, a once-in-several-lifetimes achievement. Greg Van Niel, a season-ticket holder who wasn’t sitting in his usual seat, got the four souvenirs during the Indians’ 6-4 win. “Three of them were catches and one was a ball I picked up off the ground,” Van Niel told the team. “The third one I think was the hardest one — I think I ended up sprawled across a few rows, and I got some cheese on myself. But the other ones were just a matter of being in the right place at the right time.” Yeah, four times. Van Niel described one of his grabs, on a ball hit by Indians leadoff man Michael Bourn, as being highlight-reel worthy. “Michael Bourn hit one that was off the façade, and that’s where I was in the cheese fries,” he said. “(That) one was crazy acrobatics. I was strewn across three rows, and I needed some assistance getting back.” Van Niel posed for a picture for the Indians clutching three of the souvenirs in his right hand. He said he had never caught a foul ball before his amazing one-day haul. There were 15,431 other fans at the Indians’ final game before the All-Star break, but it’s safe to bet none had a day quite like Van Niel. Mickelson wins Scottish Open after playoff INVERNESS, Scotland (AP) — Phil Mickelson birdied the first playoff hole to beat Branden Grace and win the Scottish Open on Sunday, ending his 20-year wait for a victory in Europe. After three-putting the 72nd hole to miss out on a win in regulation, Mickelson produced a superb pitch from 45 yards that landed within a foot of the 18th pin, leaving Grace a 25-footer to match him. Grace’s putt rolled by the hole and the 43-yearold American was able to celebrate a 48th professional victory worldwide, with his wife and three children watching on. “I almost let it slip away, but to come out on top feels terrific,” Mickelson said. Mickelson was using the tournament to hone his game ahead of next week’s British Open at Muirfield, and he looks in great shape to challenge for a first claret jug and fifth major title. He should tee off on Thursday as No. 5 in the world and $740,000 richer. Mickelson and Grace shot 3-under 69s in the final round to finish on 17-under 271 and overtake overnight leader Henrik Stenson, who bogeyed three of his last six holes for a tie for third with unheralded Dane J.B. Hansen on 15 under. Mickelson had to dig deep to earn his first win on European soil since a capturing a title in Paris on the European Challenge Tour in 1993. When Mickelson drove into the rough on the first hole, topped his second shot and then three-putt- ed, he dropped four shots behind Stenson, who started in a manner befitting his nickname “The Iceman” in the toughest conditions of the week. After three calm and sunny days, the wind had picked up off the Moray Firth coastline and made the Castle Stuart course much more challenging. Only five players shot lower than 70. Mickelson was in more trouble when his chip from just off the third green came up short and rolled back down the hill to his feet. He was now five shots off the leader. Urged on by a Scottish crowd that has really taken to the American — a long-time supporter of this tournament and a lover of Scotland and its links courses — he birdied the next three holes and then picked up shots at Nos. 11, 12 and 14 to take the sole lead, after briefly sharing it with Stenson and Hansen. With the two Scandinavians dropping shots coming home, Grace became Mickelson closest chal- lenger, but the American only needed to par the 72nd for victory. He reached the green serenely in three, but slid a putt 5 feet by the hole, and again back up. “I was so mad at myself after mentally losing my focus,” said Mickelson, who embraced his family before returning back up the 18th hole where he was forced to wait to tee off again after organizers had removed the tee markers, clearly confident Mickelson would finish the job the first time around. Brian Vickers a surprise winner at New Hampshire LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Brian Vickers pulled into the lead late and took off on the green-white-checkered finish to win Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The surprise winner snapped a 75race losing streak in the series with his third career Sprint Cup victory. Vickers drives a part-time schedule for Michael Waltrip Racing and competed in just his eighth race of the season. Vickers made the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship in 2009, only to be sidelined most of the next season with blood clots. He returned to drive a full schedule in 2011 but made only eight Cup starts last season. Kyle Busch was second and Jeff Burton third. Pole winner Brad Keselowski was fourth and Aric Almirola fifth. Jimmie Johnson brushed off his 43rd-place start to finish sixth. Tony Stewart was running inside the top 10 at the final caution until he ran out of fuel and plummeted to 26th. Vickers hadn’t won since the August 2009 race at Michigan. He won his first career Cup race in August 2006 at Talladega Superspeedway. MWR fields cars for Martin Truex Jr. and Clint Bowyer. But the No. 55 has been shared this season among Vickers, Mark Martin and Michael Waltrip. “He does a good job for us, all of our guys do,” crew chief Rodney Childers said. Vickers’ win may have put him in position for a full-time ride at MWR in 2014. Busch and Vickers finished 1-2 in Saturday’s Nationwide Series race. Both drivers had to stretch their fuel and Vickers ran out just as he crossed the finish line. He was in a similar spot again down the stretch a race later. He had just enough to zip past Stewart with 13 laps left and didn’t run out until it was time for the celebratory burnout. Stewart wasn’t so lucky a week after he finished second at Daytona. Johnson, who won at Daytona, was mired in last place for the first time in his career after his car flunked post-qualifying inspection. For the five-time Cup champ, that was no big deal. The points leader made quick work through the back of the field and worked his way up to the front for most of the race. He easily breezed past 71-yearold Morgan Shepherd, the oldest driver to start a race in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup series. Kurt Busch led a race-high 102 laps before he connected with Ryan Newman to end his shot at his first victory of the season. Off the restart, Danica Patrick was involved in a three-car wreck that included boyfriend Ricky Stenhouse Jr. “We’re all bunched up on those restarts,” Patrick said. “I’m not sure if I misjudged the breaking zone or they stopped really quick in front of me.” Vickers survived it all to win for the third time in 271 Sprint Cup races. Driving for Red Bull Racing, his career was seriously derailed in 2010 because of clots in his leg and lungs. He had two procedures to close a hole in his heart and insert a stent into a vein in his left leg. After Red Bull shut down after the 2011 season, Vickers was hooked on with MWR. He’s been driving fulltime this season in the Nationwide Series for Joe Gibbs Racing.
