Each year there are an estimated 2 million people with serious mental illnesses are admitted to U.S. jails, with almost threequarters having cooccurring substance use disorders. The toll incarceration takes on these individuals and their families, as well as the costs assumed by taxpayers, is staggering. Jails have become de facto in-patient psychiatric facilities across the nation with little impact on public safety. Ohio is no exception, with as many as 30 percent or more of the individuals in jail having mental illnesses. Meigs has joined over 45 other Ohio counties in Stepping Up, a national initiative to reduce the number of people with mental illnesses in jails. The initiative was launched in May 2015 by the Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center, the National Association of Counties, and the American Psychiatric Associa- tion Foundation, with support from the U.S. Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Assistance, to help people with mental illnesses and co-occurring substance use disorders safely stay out of jails and on a path to recovery. An initial meeting of all county leadership — commissioners, judges, law enforcement, treatment community, hospitals, and others — will join to hear about the assistance and resources Stepping Up can offer and how to reverse this cycle of jails being the de facto hospital for those better cared for and treated in the community. The Ohio effort is privately funded by Peg’s Foundation to make this effort a success, Peg’s Foundation has retained Retired Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton to serve as Project Director and Melissa Knopp, Esq., to serve as Project Manager to lead the Ohio efforts. The kick-off will be held at the Riverbend Arts Council on Aug. 6. Contact the Meigs Common Pleas Court for more information at 740-992-6439. Information provided by Meigs County Common Pleas Court.

By Andrew Taylor Associated Press WASHINGTON — A hard-won, warts-and-all budget pact between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Donald Trump is facing a key vote in the GOPheld Senate, with many conservatives torn between supporting the president and risking their political brand with an unpopular vote to add $2 trillion or more to the government’s credit card. The Trump-supported legislation backed by the Democratic speaker would stave off a government shutdown and protect budget gains for the Pentagon and popular domestic programs. It’s attached to a mustdo measure to lift the so-called debt limit to permit the government to borrow freely to pay its bills. The vote, expected Thursday, is a politically tough one for many Republicans. The tea party-driven House GOP conference broke against it by a 2-1 ratio, but most pragmatists see the measure as preferable to an alternative fall landscape of high-wire deadlines and potential chaos. The government otherwise would face a potential debt default, an Oct. 1 shutdown deadline, and the return in January of across-the-board spending cuts known as sequestration. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is confident Habitat From page 1 work during the building process. “They are so proactive at being involved in their build. They love their community as well,” said Chelsie Frazier, the Director of Family Services with Habitat SEO. “We’re just really blessed to have them and to be able to give them this kind of opportunity.” Moritz said both Shad and Aja were born and raised in Middleport and they are excited to continue raising their family in the area. “This was an awesome opportunity for them to be able to own a home here instead of paying more than 50 percent of their income to rent, which is what they had done previously in very, very substandard living conditions,” Moritz said. The house, which is located beside the first Habitat house built in Meigs County, has three bedrooms and two bathrooms with an open kitchen and living area. Moritz said Habitat SEO is searching for a location for the next house build in Meigs County. “We are looking at Photos by Kayla Hawthorne | Courtesy Supporters and sponsors of the new Habitat for Humanity project took part in the hart hat tour earlier this week. sites. The only issue is trying to find one that’s not in the floodplain,” Moritz said. “It would be nice to expand outside of Middleport, but we will help wherever we can.” Habitat SEO is planning to start the next home in 2021. “We would like to be able to build every year, but we’re not able to currently,” Moritz said. “One day we hope we can get there with the community support and working with the commissioners.” Moritz and other TODAY 8 AM WEATHER 2 PM Caitlyn Moritz gives Paul Reed of Farmers Bank a tour of the new Habitat for Humanity House. 69° 81° 78° Partial sunshine today.

But for new arrivals to the Senate, particularly those who ran against a broken Washington culture, the sweeping measure represents a lot of what they ran against: unrestrained borrowing and trillion-dollar deficits, fueled by a bipartisan thirst for new spending. “This budget process, if we can even call it a process, put taxpayers at the mercy of a House Speaker who has no interest in prudent budgeting,” said freshman Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo. “Our system is not supposed to work this way. When the entire federal budget depends on four or five people striking a deal among themselves, something is not right.” Rand Paul, R-Ky., said the deal “marks the death of the Tea Party movement in America.” The budget and debt bill, however, is a top priority for McConnell, who set up the initial talks — taken over by Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin earlier this month — and pushed to isolate conservative forces in the White House who were disruptive. Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer of New York and House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy of California are also supporting the deal.

Impacting Submitted story increased $838,000, from the same respective periods in 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the negative provision for loan loss expense of $806,000 was primarily related to net recoveries of loans previously charged off totaling $194,000, a $227,000 reduction in specific allocations on collateral dependent impaired loans, and the improvement in certain economic risk factors contributing to lower general reserves. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the provision for loan losses incurred of $1,571,000 was primarily related to net loan charge-offs of $898,000 and higher general reserves in relation to certain economic risk factors. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was 1.36 percent at June 30, 2019 compared to 1.25 percent at December 31, 2018 and 1.45 percent at June 30, 2018. The allowance for loan losses was .95 percent of total loans at June 30, 2019, compared to .87 percent at December 31, 2018 and .98 percent at June 30, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, noninterest income totaled $2,003,000, a decrease of $535,000 from the same period last year. Noninterest income totaled $3,849,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $1,765,000 from the same period last year. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily related to tax processing fees. In relation to the third-party tax refund provider terminating the contract as previously discussed, the Company experienced a decline in tax processing fees, which is a per item fee for each tax refund processed. As a result of not performing such service in 2019, tax processing fees decreased $1,528,000 from the first half of 2018. In addition, for the first half of 2019, gain on sale of other real estate owned decreased $143,000, which was partially offset by interchange income earned from debit and credit transactions, which increased $93,000, respectively, from the same period last year. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, noninterest expense totaled $9,791,000, an increase of $117,000 from the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, noninterest expense totaled $19,359,000, a decrease of $123,000 from the same period last year. The Company’s largest noninterest expense, salaries and employee benefits, decreased $14,000 as compared to the second quarter of 2018 and decreased $180,000 as compared to the first half of 2018. The decrease was primarily related to the expense savings associated with a lower number of employees more than offsetting the expense increase associated with annual merit increases. Further contributing to lower noninterest expense was data processing and FDIC insurance premiums. For the six months ended June 30, 3019, data processing expense decreased $332,000 from the same period last year in relation to lower consulting fees. For the same period, FDIC insurance premiums decreased $145,000 in relation to a lower assessment rate. Partially offsetting the expense reductions above was an increase in professional fees, which increased $338,000 from the first half of the prior year primarily due to litigation related legal fees.

Yost anounces multistate data breach settlement Submitted story COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost today announced a multistate settlement requiring the health insurance company Premera Blue Cross to pay $10 million for its failure to secure sensitive consumer data. Premera’s insufficient data security exposed the protected health and personal information of more than 10.4 million consumers nationwide, including 52,677 people in Ohio. A coalition of 30 states investigated Premera’s cybersecurity vulnerabilities that gave a hacker unrestricted access to protected health informa- tion for almost a year. “Exposing personal information gets to the core of vulnerability – it can now be used whenever, however and without your knowledge,” Yost said. “Premera was well aware of its faulty defenses and had been warned but rather decided to sweep the problem under the rug.” Under the settlement, Premera will pay $10 million total to the states, with $67,792 going to Ohio. The company is also required to implement specific data security controls intended to protect personal health information, annually review its security practices and provide data security reports to the attorneys general. Premera’s $10 million payment to the states is in addition to any amount Premera will be paying as a result of a proposed class action settlement, which received preliminary approval on July 29 from a federal court in Oregon. In the complaint announced today, Attorney General Yost asserts that the company failed to meet its obligations under the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and violated Ohio’s Consumer Sales Practices Act by neglecting to address known cybersecurity vulnerabilities that gave the hacker access to protected health information.

Morrisey urges court to reconsider shutdown of pipeline CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is leading a 16-state alliance urging the U.S. Supreme Court to review, and ultimately overturn, a ruling that halted construction of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline, a decision that could unnecessarily block pipeline construction and impede economic growth nationwide. The coalition’s brief, filed Monday, argues a federal appeals court was inaccurate in ruling the U.S. Forest Service lacked authority to grant the Atlantic Coast Pipeline rights-of-way through forestland beneath the Appalachian National Scenic Trail. ”The court’s decision was completely wrong,” Morrisey said. “This Morrisey decision, if it holds, will stand in the way of economic diversification, education and public safety. Continued delays negatively impact the livelihoods of our working class families and the services they receive.” The Atlantic Coast Pipeline will transport natural gas through Harrison, Lewis, Upshur, Randolph and Pocahontas counties en route to Virginia and North Carolina. A halt to pipeline construction will cost West Virginia jobs and lost revenue from income and property taxes. County officials suggest these monies would make a difference in law enforcement activities and future economic development. “The tax revenue generated from this project is essential,” said Cindy Whetsell, director of the Lewis County Economic Development Authority. “The Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s benefits are enormous. Lewis County, the State of West Virginia and the United States need this project for overall stability and prosperity.” Pipeline supporters note the loss of business for restaurants, hotels and others that benefit from the increased activity brought with pipeline construction. They also point to families left essentially broken when the head of the household must work out of state to replace jobs lost on the stalled pipeline. “It is crucial that the Atlantic Coast Pipeline be given permission to move forward with construction,” said Robert Morris Jr., executive director of the Randolph County Development Authority. “Many of our local businesses have been banking on the construction activity bringing new and expanded revenue to them. Many of our citizens were also counting on the jobs that either directly or indirectly were created by the ACP.” The attorneys general argue, if left intact, the ruling from the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals would transform 1,000 miles of the Appalachian Trail into a near-impenetrable barrier to energy development – all due to a one-tenth of mile crossing on a 600-mile pipeline. If applied nationwide, the coalition argues the appeals court decision would seal off more than 11,000 miles of federal trails from development and potentially disrupt the national power grid because of the chilling effect it could have on infrastructure investment. Other states joining the West Virginia-led brief are Alabama, Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming.

Sandy recently released the second printing of her 2011 book “A Majestic Legacy” which is a pictorial history of Showboat Majestic. A pictorial is a story presented in picture format. Jackie shared years ago their aunt had done a written history on the Showboat Majestic which featured a few pictures of the vessel and the sisters asked their uncle for some pictures of the boat to make their own personal scrapbooks. He brought them a whole box full of individual pictures and the sisters got to work to put their scrapbooks together. Coincidentally, both of the sisters put the photos in their individual scrapbooks in the same chronological order. However, Sandy took it a step further and labeled every person pictured and gathered information about all of those who worked on the vessel. Since Sandy’s scrapbook looked so professional, and after her Jackie’s encouragement, she put it into book format and sold copies at several venues in 2011, selling out. Sandy retired from teaching in Mason County School System after 32 years of service, teaching first grade through seventh grade. She enjoys traveling in her spare time. Jackie recently released her adaptation of her grandmother’s, Garnett Virginia Neal Reynolds, memoirs, entitled “The Flip of the Coin” which is about her life after she married into the showboat life at age 14. ”‘The Flip of the Coin’ is the life story of my grandmother’s life aboard the Showboat Majestic, written in her own words and vernacular. Since the Majestic’s hometown is Point Pleasant, I think the citizens will be interested in reading about her life after she married my grandfather, Captain Thomas Jefferson Reynolds,” said Jackie. The story has the title “The Flip of the Coin” because when Jackie’s grandfather and grandmother were deciding where to travel on the river, they flipped a coin to tell them to go either north or south on the river. After Jackie’s grandfather passed, her grandmother wrote her memoirs in the 1960’s and gave a copy to each of her children, including Jackie and Sandy’s father. When Jackie got the copy, she rewrote it in the 1990’s to make it more readable, but kept it in her grandmother’s own words, her grandmother’s own feelings. Though her grandmother married at a young age to an older man at the age of 39, they had a beautiful love story to share, commented Jackie which is told in this story. Jackie taught piano locally for 25 years. As with her sister, she enjoys traveling in her spare time. Sandy and Jackie are the late daughters of the late Captain Carl Jackson (Jack) and Dodie Reynolds. Their Grandpa Tom built, owned, and operated the Majestic, which is the last existing Showboat in the United States. It is listed as a U.S. Historical Landmark. Jackie commented her grandparents lead an exciting life, living day to day going from show to show. She believes these stories will be of interest to Mason County residents, especially those who were around during her grandparents era and who live and/ or have lived in Henderson and remember the Showboat Majestic. “We love our family heritage,” said Jackie. “Many of the boys in our family have grown up to be pilots on the river, we even call ourselves ‘river rats.’” After being owned by the city of Cincinnati for many years, the Showboat Majestic was sold at auction in May of this year. It is was purchased by Joe and Cortnee Brumley and now has a new home in Manchester, Ohio. Sandy and Jackie met with the Brumleys, who allowed the sisters to host the first Reynolds cousins reunion in June on the Majestic, more than 70 family members attended. Everyone is invited to attend this book signing and learn more about the Showboat Majestic and the life story of Garnett Virginia Neal Reynolds. “A Majestic Legacy” will be available for purchase at $20 and “The Flip of the Coin” will be available to purchase at $10.

Pierluisi’s brother-in-law also heads the board, which has clashed repeatedly with Rosselló and other elected officials over demands for austerity measures. “That’s a serious conflict of interest,” Rep. José Enrique Meléndez told The Associated Press. Rep. Milagros Charbonier and House of Representatives President Johnny Méndez also said they would vote against Pierluisi and urged Rosselló to instead nominate Rivera Schatz. All three legislators are members of Rosselló’s pro-statehood New Progressive Party. Méndez has said Pierluisi does not have the votes needed in the House of Representatives. “The situation could not be more complicat- ed,” said Sen. José Antonio Vargas Vidot, who ran for Senate as an independent. “This is absurd, what we’re going through. We never thought something like this could happen. In an extraordinary crisis, we have to take extraordinary measures.” Sen. Eduardo Bhatia bitterly accused Rivera Schatz of trying to maneuver himself into the top job. “This attitude of (Rivera Schatz) taking the island hostage is very dangerous,” Bhatia tweeted. “’It’s him or no one’ is in keeping with what has been a life silencing and destroying democracy.” Rosselló has said he will resign on Friday, bowing to the demands of massive street protests by Puerto Ricans frustrated with corruption, mismanagement and an obscenity-laced chat that was leaked in which Rosselló TODAY IN HISTORY Jackson in Jan. 1996, cit- THOUGHT FOR TODAY ing irreconcilable differences.)

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Puerto Rico’s political crisis appeared to deepen on Wednesday as the island’s outgoing governor and legislators — including those from his own party — clashed over who should be the next leader of a U.S. territory unbalanced by massive protests. The upheaval has raised fears that a government in chaos will have trouble negotiating for more federal funding for recovery from Hurricane Maria and coping with the island’s grave economic woes. Gov. Ricardo Rosselló announced that he had chosen Puerto Rico’s former non-voting representative to Congress, Pedro Pierluisi, as his secretary of state — a post that would put Pierluisi in line to be governor when Rosselló steps down on Friday. But he’s unlikely to be approved by legislators, several of whom proposed instead naming Senate President Thomas Rivera Schatz, a declared candidate for the 2020 governor’s election. Some lawmakers complained about Pierluisi’s work for a law firm that represents the federal control board that was created to oversee Puerto Rico’s finances before the territory, saddled with and 11 other men made fun of women, gay people and victims of Hurricane Maria. More than a dozen officials have resigned in the wake of the chat, including former Secretary of State Luis Rivera Marín. On Wednesday, new excerpts of the chat were released by an online blog called “En Blanco y Negro con Sandra,” which released the first excerpts of the same chat earlier this month. In the newest release, the group makes fun of people including the Senate president Schatz and several journalists, while Rosselló once again calls another female politician a “whore.” The authenticity of the chat could not be immediately verified. A spokeswoman for Rosselló did not immediately return a message for comment. By law, the secretary of state would take over if the governor resigns, but if someone is not named by Friday, Justice Secretary Wanda Vázquez would be next in line. She has said she doesn’t want the job, however, and has not said what she’d do if it falls to her anyway. Meanwhile, Rivera Schatz, whose spokeswoman said he was not granting interviews, said in a Facebook post on Wednesday that all problems have solutions and that Puerto Rico should be focused on finding them. �Sports 6 Thursday, August 1, 2019 Daily Sentinel Post 39 wins state opener Looking for starters at HOF Game?

Green has surgery, expected to miss opener CINCINNATI (AP) — A.J. Green had ankle surgery Tuesday and is expected to miss the start of the season, another significant setback for the Cincinnati Bengals’ offense. Green hurt his left ankle during the opening practice of camp Saturday in Dayton, landing awkwardly after cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick bumped into the star receiver while breaking up a pass. Coach Zac Taylor said Green had surgery Tuesday morning and likely won’t be ready for the start of the season. Cincinnati opens at Seattle on Sept. 8 and then hosts San Francisco. The Bengals visit Buffalo the third week followed by a Monday night game at Pittsburgh on Sept. 30. “He’s going to miss some regular-season games,” Taylor said. “How many, I don’t know. Very hopefully he’s back at the beginning of the regular season and it’s not more than a couple of games.” It’s the second straight season that Green has suffered a significant Sam Greene | The Cincinnati Enquirer via AP Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (18) leaves practice with an injury to his left ankle during training camp at Welcome Stadium in Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday. Coach Zac Taylor said Green had surgery Tuesday morning. He’s hopeful that Green won’t miss “more than a couple of games.” injury. He missed half of last season with an injured right toe that required surgery. The Bengals went easy with him during offseason workouts, and he felt fully recovered for the start of training camp. Less than an hour into the first practice, he got hurt. The Bengals were practicing in Dayton — commemorating the site of the NFL’s first game — when Kirkpatrick bumped into him during a 7-on-7 drill. The Bengals initially were optimistic that it was just a sprained ankle, but a specialist recommended surgery to help the healing process. “We’re thankful they saw everything they saw, and it’s just going to be a couple of games and we’re going to get it all taken care of,” Taylor said. The offense already has lost three projected starters. Rookie tackle Jonah Williams suffered a season-ending shoulder injury in the offseason, and left guard Clint Boling retired in July because of a blood clot, costing Cincinnati its two starters on the left side of the line. Taylor planned to have the team’s first practice in pads on Tuesday, but severe storms forced the Bengals to call it off and have a walk-through indoors instead. Cincinnati is the only northern team without a covered practice field. Taylor replaced Marvin Lewis, who was fired after his 16th season. Taylor said “there’s never a good time to lose a practice,” which forces the team to reconfigure its plans. “When practice is canceled, when guys get hurt, it’s all about how we respond,” Taylor said. NOTES: The Bengals signed free agent cornerback Tony Lippett, who was a fifth-round pick of the Dolphins in 2015. He spent two seasons with Miami and part of last season with the Giants. The team waived linebacker Chris Worley, who played in their final two games last season on special teams. … Long snapper Clark Harris passed a physical and was cleared to join practice, before the storm forced Taylor to call it off. FIFA expands Women’s World Cup from 24 teams to 32 FIFA’s Council has unanimously approved expanding the Women’s World Cup from 24 teams to 32 for 2023 and has reopened bidding to host the tournament but made no mention of changing prize money. FIFA said Wednesday the decision was made remotely. Nine national associations had expressed interest in hosting and were due to submit their formal bids by Oct. 4: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa and South Korea, which could bid jointly with North Korea Under the new timetable, any national association has until December to make a bid. FIFA expects a bid evaluation report next April and a decision the following month. FIFA’s statement made no mention of prize money. The U.S. received $4 million of a $30 million prize pool for winning the World Cup on July 7, a small percentage of the $38 million from a $400 million pool that France got for winning the 2018 men’s World Cup. FIFA has increased prize money for the 2022 men’s World Cup to $440 million and FIFA President Gianni Infantino said July 5 that he was proposing FIFA double the women’s prize money to $60 million for 2023. After the U.S. won the women’s final in Lyon, France, fans in the stadium chanted “Equal Pay!” Infantino said in a statement that “this is the time to keep the momentum going and take concrete steps to foster the growth of women’s football” and “it means that, from now on, dozens more member associations will organize their women’s football program knowing they have a realistic chance of qualifying.” “We have a duty to do the groundwork and strengthen women’s football development infrastructure across all confederations,” he said. The Women’s World Cup started with 12 teams in 1991, expanded to 16 in 1999 and 24 in 2015. The men’s World Cup was played with 13-16 teams from 1930-78, 24 from 1982-94 and has been contested with 32 since. It is due to expand to 48 in 2026, when the tournament is co-hosted by the United States, Mexico and Canada. Infantino also has proposed a Women’s Club World Cup, creating a women’s world league and doubling FIFA’s investment in women’s soccer in the next four-year cycle to $1 billion. CANTON, Ohio (AP) — It’s the first preseason NFL game, which means most starters get to visit the Pro Football Hall of Fame, then watch the youngsters go at it. So if you’re looking for any likely regulars on the field Thursday night for the Falcons and Broncos, focus on the offensive lines. Denver’s new coach, Vic Fangio, will start three O-linemen who could be in the opening day lineup: left tackle Garett Bolles, rookie left guard Dalton Risner and center Connor McGovern. All need work on cohesion, a must for any blocking unit, but particularly when the quarterback is more stationary than most. That’s what the Broncos have in veteran Joe Flacco, acquired from Baltimore. Flacco won’t play against Atlanta. McGovern’s low snaps out of the shotgun have been a problem this summer, just as they were last season when he took over for an injured Matt Paradis, who left in free agency in the offseason. Offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello hopes the blockers get tested. “Yeah, let’s see who can block a good pass rusher without chipping them,” Fangio said. “Even though they’ve got the box loaded, let’s see if we can run the ball up the middle.” Atlanta’s front line battles have first-round picks See HOF | 7 Indians get big bats Puig, Reyes from Reds CLEVELAND (AP) — The Indians added some power — and a little punch — for their playoff push. Still chasing the homerhappy Minnesota Twins in the AL Central, Cleveland traded temperamental starter Trevor Bauer to the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday in a threeteam deal that landed the Indians two big bats to fill their power void, Yasiel Puig and Franmil Reyes, The Indians, who have cut first-place Minnesota’s lead from 11½ games to three, dealt Bauer to the Reds for Puig and lefthander Scott Moss. The Indians also acquired Reyes, lefty Logan Allen and infield prospect Victor Nova from San Diego. The Padres acquired outfielder Taylor Trammel from the Reds. Bauer’s exit was nearly as stunning as his final start for Cleveland. His trade was completed three days after the quirky right-hander with undeniable talent along with a difficult side, angrily threw a ball from behind the mound See INDIANS | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel HOF From page 6 Chris Lindstrom and Kaleb McGary competing for starting jobs at right guard and right tackle, respectively. Lindstrom was listed as the starter on the team’s first depth chart, while McCary is behind veteran Ty Sambrailo. The Falcons have the weapons to be dynamic on offense, but not if Matt Ryan (who also will sit Thursday night) doesn’t get protection and Devonta Freeman doesn’t have room to run. One of the all-time greats among offensive linemen will be on hand: Mike Munchak. Fangio said one thing he was looking forward to was seeing the OL coach’s bronze bust in the Hall of Fame. “I’m sure Munch will be there charging a fee to take a picture with the guys with his bust,” Fangio said. “I’m going to try to get a picture with Mike standing next to his bust. That will be cool.” Here are some other noteworthy themes for the game two days before former Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez, former Broncos defensive back Champ Bailey and the team’s late owner, Pat Bowlen, are inducted into the hall. Also entering are Ed Reed, Kevin Mawae, Ty Law, Gil Brandt and Johnny Robinson. No Julio Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones already has said he won’t play in any preseason games. He skipped all preseason Indians From page 6 over the center-field wall in Kansas City. Bauer called the act “childish” and was fined by Major League Baseball. It may have been the final straw for the Indians, who managed to get back five players to help in their playoff push and beyond. Puig, who literally left Cincinnati swinging following another brawl with the Pirates on Tuesday night, and Reyes have 49 combined homers this season. They’ll give manager Terry Francona some additional lineup options as well as a needed power surge. The three teams agreed to the seven-player swap Tuesday, but medical reports didn’t get approval until just hours before the trade deadline. Dealing Bauer is not without risk for the Indians. Though he can be challenging, Bauer is a workhorse and at times has been the club’s best pitcher this season while two-time Cy Young winner Corey Kluber (broken arm) and Carlos Carrasco (leukemia) have been sidelined. But Kluber and Carrasco are expected back in the weeks ahead, and the Indians have activated Danny Salazar, a 2016 All-Star whose career has been slowed by injuries. “Over the last several weeks, we explored the trade market in an effort to enhance our competitive position, both by supplementing our major league roster and infusing young talent into the organization,” Indians President of Baseball Operations Chris Antonetti said. “We appreciate Trevor’s contributions to the organization in his time with us and while it’s never easy to part with a player of Doug Barron has a week to remember games last season before leading the NFL with 1,688 yards receiving. Jones said he’ll be coaching young receivers and is especially interested in seeing Christian Blake, who he said has been “phenomenal catching the ball down the field.” Blake spent last season learning from the likes of Jones and Mohamed Sanu while on the practice squad, and he is having a strong camp. By Doug Ferguson Associated Press Doug Barron celebrated his 50th birthday with a last-minute trip to England to play links golf for the first time with some old friends. Only this wasn’t the garden variety golf trip. He flew to Manchester, drove to the Lancashire coast and played with Wes Short Jr. The last time they had played together was nearly seven years ago in the Jacksonville Open, the final event of the year on what is now the Korn Ferry Tour. Two days later, Barron finished with three clutch putts at Fairhaven to qualify for the Senior British Open The day he turned 50 was the final practice round at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, where Barron and Dicky Pride took 20 pounds off Joe Durant and Scott Parel. The week ended with Barron closing with a 67 in the rain while playing with Colin Montgomerie to tie for fifth. He made $72,960, his largest paycheck in 13 years. And the most memorable part of an unforgettable week was after it ended. Barron walked into the locker room and saw Tom Watson, who had just concluded 45 years of competing in the British Open and Senior British Open. “He told me, ‘Good playing today,’ and it brought tears to my eyes,” Barron said. “He was my hero growing up.” Golf has not always been this good to Barron. Ten years ago, he became a footnote in PGA Tour history as the first player suspended under the Anti-Doping Policy. Oddly enough, Barron was loving life at the Senior British Open the same week as a World Golf Championship at the TPC Southwind in his hometown of Memphis, Tennessee. It was at the TPC Southwind where he played his final PGA Tour event on a sponsor exemp- Fangio’s philosophy The veteran defensive coordinator now in his first job as a head coach doesn’t want to use a lot of stuff in the preseason, preferring to test his young players and see what they’ve got. He said he wants to puts his players in difficult situations “just to see who can handle it.” “For instance, if I’m pretty confident they might be throwing it, instead of giving a corner some help, we’ll see if he can cover his guy. Play a light box even though we think they might be running it, things like that,” Fangio said. RB competition Falcons coach Dan Quinn said there has been no separation in the competition for carries behind starter Freeman, who comes off an injuryravaged season. There is a void after Tevin Coleman, who had shared time with Freeman, signed with San Francisco. Ito Smith could be the favorite to earn a bigger role. The competition also includes Brian Hill, Kenjon Barner, rookie Qadree Ollison and Tony Brooks-James. his caliber, we feel we’ve traded from an area of depth to help bolster our major league club for this year and the foreseeable future.” The bold move was applauded by Indians fans, many of whom were soured by the team’s cost-cutting offseason when owner Paul Dolan demanded a slash in payroll, forcing Antonetti and general manager Mike Chernoff to make some difficult decisions. The Indians did not resign All-Star outfielder Michael Brantley and traded slugger Edwin Encarnacion, first baseman Yonder Alonso and catcher Yan Gomes. It’s not clear when Puig will arrive in Cleveland. But he sure had a memorable departure in Cincinnati. The muscular outfielder was involved in another benches-clearing brawl between the Reds and Pirates, Ohio River rivals who have exchanged beanballs, taunts and a fair share of punches this season. Puig, who had 22 home runs, 61 RBIs and 14 steals in 100 games in his abbreviated season with the Reds, was in the middle of Tuesday’s fracas, which began with Cincinnati reliever Amir Garrett rushing the Pirates’ dugout and throwing punches at anyone in a wearing black and gold. It was similar to the scene in April, when Puig charged a group of Pirates players near home plate during a wild melee. Puig was suspended two games for those actions, and he could be facing another penalty for the latest RedsPirates dustup. The Cuban-born outfielder has a career .275 average with 130 homers and 391 RBIs in 812 games. He is eligible for free agency after the World Series. Thursday, August 1, 2019 7 tion in 2009 and was randomly selected for drug testing. Barron had been on beta blockers since a mitral valve prolapse as a teenager. In 2006, doctors found his testosterone level to be that of an 80-year-old man, and he began taking a steroid to get his levels normal. Golf began drug testing in 2008, and Barron was denied a therapeutic use exemption. He was so miserable for eight months that he took one injection three weeks before playing in Memphis. The drug test came back positive. Instead of appealing, he sued. The case was resolved out of court. Barron was never competitive when he returned, mainly because of five shoulder surgeries. His last full year on the developmental circuit was in 2012, and then he effectively fired himself. Enough of tour life. He had missed too much time at home and wasn’t going anywhere. He became a medical rep for British-based Smith & Nephew, but that wasn’t for him. “I quit right after I passed corporate training,” Barron said with a laugh. Instead, he asked a longtime friend to take a chance on him giving golf lessons at Windyke Country Club. He taught for six years when another opportunity came up in the credit card processing business. That allowed him to play more golf, and that’s when he hooked up with Shaun Webb at the David Toms 265 Golf Academy in Shreveport, Louisiana. “He was struggling with his swing,” Webb said. “He went from zero confidence in the driver to now driving the ball as good as he ever has.” And it showed. Barron began posting scores in the low 60s. He won three times on the Emerald Coast Tour. Against bigger fields with younger kids, he could make the cut but little more. He wanted to feel nervous. Some of the Emerald Coast Tour events had 40 players. He could handle that, even if his biggest paycheck for winning was $8,000. “I wanted to play where I could win,” he said. But it got him to thinking: Why not the PGA Tour Champions? Just his luck, he turned 50 the day before the Senior British Open. “I talked to my wife, and she said to go for it,” Barron said. “My wife has been my biggest supporter. She’s an artist, the true talent. She makes a great living and she enjoys it. I didn’t enjoy the PGA Tour. I took myself too seriously back then.” This was different. His father is in a hospice suffering from dementia and Parkinson’s disease. His oldest son is headed off to college. Barron has a new outlook on golf, a newfound confidence in his game and a better chance playing against guys his own age than on mini-tours loaded with powerful young talent. “He has a ton of belief in himself,” Webb said. “He told me, ‘I think I’m ready, I’m going to compete.’ I said, ‘I think you are, too.’” Barron headed to England on a whim and wound up on television — his name on the leaderboard, shots he hit on the golf course. “I enjoyed the hell out of my week,” he said. Barron didn’t get much more than a nice check, though. Even after a tie for fifth in a major — four shots behind Bernhard Langer — he has to go through pre-qualifying before he can enter Monday qualifying for the Dick’s Sporting Goods Open in two weeks. He has written for a sponsor’s exemption, and there are five more tournaments after that. Barron wrote a Facebook post that included his picture with Watson and words that summed up a feeling he wouldn’t have thought possible in golf 10 years ago. “I can’t think of a better week in my life.” AP SPORTS BRIEFS Titans place receiver Batson on IR, add pair of receivers NASHVILLE, Tenn.

Covered? The Atlanta Falcons quarterback saw play after play where Gonzalez was surrounded by two or three defenders. “I was like, ‘What are you talking about, man?’” Ryan said. “And he was like, ‘Nah, if you just put it in this one spot, it’ll be perfect.’ It took me a while to develop that trust to let it rip and throw it to this spot, but he was right. He was open, and if you could deliver the ball in a spot that he could make a play, he didn’t let you down.” It was the ability of Gonzalez to make those tough catches, especially on third down and in the red zone, that helped make him a first-ballot pick who will be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday.

(AP) — CJ McCollum has agreed to a three-year contract extension with the Portland Trail Blazers. The 27-year-old McCollum averaged 21.0 points last season, helping Portland make it to the Western Conference finals. The 6-foot-3 shooting guard, who was selected by the Trail Blazers with the 10th overall pick in the 2013 draft, has averaged at least 20.8 points over the last four years. The agreement keeps McCollum under contract through the 2023-24 season. McCollum’s agent told ESPN the extension is worth $100 million. President of basketball operations Neil Olshey says McCollum “is a franchise cornerstone and a critical part of our future.” McCollum has career averages of 17.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 411 games with Portland over six seasons. He also is a 40.1% shooter from 3-point range and makes 83.9% of his foul shots. Rangers get reliever from White Sox for 2 minor leaguers ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Texas Rangers have acquired right-hander Nate Jones from the Chicago White Sox for minor league pitchers Joe Jarneski and Ray Castro. Chicago will send the Rangers $750,000 as part of Wednesday’s deal to cover part of the $1.5 million remaining in the $4.65 million salary for Jones, who is on the injured list after surgery to repair a flexor mass tear in his right forearm. He is not expected to pitch again this season. Texas also will get $1 million in international signing bonus pool allotment for 2019-20. Jones had a 3.48 ERA in 13 relief appearances this season before going on the injured list April 27. He is 22-13 with a 3.12 ERA in 284 relief appearances in his big league career from 2012-19, all with the White Sox. His contract includes a $3.75 million club option for 2020 with a $1.25 million buyout, and also a 2021 option. 3rd horse fatality occurs at Del Mar during training DEL MAR, Calif. (AP) — A third horse has died during training at Del Mar, including the second trained by Hall of Famer Bob Baffert. A track spokesman confirmed the death of Bowl of Soul, a 3-year-old filly trained by Baffert. She broke down Monday after an injury to her right hind fetlock and was euthanized. Jockey Joe Talamo, her regular rider, was aboard. Bowl of Soul won her first race at Santa Anita on May 27 and was second in another on June 23. Daily Sentinel Browns to honor Otto Graham CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cleveland Browns are honoring Hall of Fame quarterback Otto Graham with a statue outside FirstEnergy Stadium. Graham played 10 seasons with Cleveland, leading the Browns to a title game in each one. With Graham, the Browns won four AllAmerica Football Conference championships (1946, 1947, 1948, 1949) and three NFL championships (1950, 1954, 1955). In his final game, Graham threw for two touchdowns and ran for two in a 38-14 win over the Los Angeles Rams for the NFL title. For his career, he passed for 23,584 yards with 174 passing touchdowns and 44 rushing. Graham was inducted in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1965. He died in 2003 at 82. The Browns will unveil the statue, which will sit on the stadium’s southwest side, in September. It will be the second by the team, following one of Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown in 2016. The team has again commissioned sculptor David L. Deming, who also created the one for Brown. Graham’s grandson, Ryan Vanname, got a sneak peak of the sculpture earlier this spring. “It’s amazing,” Vanname said. “I know my family will definitely be proud of the work (Deming) did on this because right when I walked in it’s like, ‘That’s him. That’s my grandfather.’” AP file Cleveland Browns quarterback Otto Graham prepares to throw the ball during practice in Cleveland in 1949.

(AP) — Tom Brady is a week into his 20th NFL training camp and will turn 42 on Saturday, but the New England Patriots quarterback still has boundless enthusiasm for the challenge ahead. “I have a great time,” Brady said after Wednesday’s full-pads practice, conducted in 90-degree heat. “I love the sport. I’ve been playing it since I was a kid. It’s hard for me to imagine doing anything else in life. I love playing ball, so to still be out here at 41, soon to be 42, it’s a pretty great thing for me,” he said. The sixth-round draft selection out of Michigan in 2000 is coming off his sixth Super Bowl victory in nine appearances, but personnel changes along his offensive line and at tight end loom as obstacles to another trip to the title game. “There’s a lot of turnover every year, and you deal with that turnover and a lot of new guys trying to assimilate into what we’ve done here for a long time,” Brady said during his first meet- ing with the media in camp. “Between the coaches, the veteran players, the leaders, it’s our responsibility to get everyone on the same page and doing the right thing and trying to help in whatever way we can to help us move the ball downfield and score points,” he said. Foremost among the changes is the retirement of tight end Rob Gronkowski, regarded as perhaps the best in the game over the past nine seasons. “He’s a great player, and to replace great players, it’s not like you just pick another one off the tight end tree,” he said. “You’ve got to find guys that come in that want to put the work in and want to try to contribute.” Brady credited the Patriots’ defensive unit with testing his receivers to their utmost every day in practice. “It’s hard to complete passes on our secondary, and that’s just the reality,” he said. “So it’s actually great work for our offense to see how we measure up against a very good defense.” Pleasant Valley Hospital Tess Simon, MD Internal Medicine :HGQHVGD\V�‡�����SP� 39+�1XUVLQJ�$GPLQLVWUDWLRQ�2I²�FH Good health begins with great primary care.
