Sunday, August 7, 2011 $1.50 • Vol. 45, No. 32 SB 5 ballot language approved Check yes or no BY BETH SERGENT BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENTINEL.COM COLUMBUS — The choice to either keep or repeal Senate Bill 5 will be an easy one for voters in November, at least if they read the straight forward ballot language approved last week by the Ohio Secretary of State’s Office. Known as Issue 2, the SB 5 ballot referendum simply reads: “A majority yes vote is necessary for Amended Substitute Senate Bill No. 5 to be approved. Amended Substitute Senate Bill No. 5 is a new law relative to government union contracts and other government employment contracts and policies. A “YES” vote means you approve the law. A “NO” vote means you reject the law.” Obviously, opponents of SB 5 are planning on checking “no” while supporters of the legislation are checking “yes.” The movement to repeal SB 5 was organized by the group We Are Ohio which calls the legislation an “unfair attack on employee rights and worker safety.” “We Are Ohio is pleased that Ohio Secretary of State Husted and the Ohio Ballot Board chose to follow the Ohio constitution and legal precedent by making a ‘no’ vote on Issue 2 a vote to repeal SB 5,” said Melissa Fazekas, spokeswoman for We Are Ohio. “While our opposi- Fair fun finished Sun sets on 62nd Annual Gallia County Jr. Fair RUTLAND —Gospel Harmony Boys from Charleston, W.Va. will headline a gospel concert at 7 p.m., Aug. 13 at Rutland Free Will Baptist Church.

BY AMBER GILLENWATER MDTNEWS@MYDAILYTRIBUNE.COM Thursday was an afternoon walk-through of the building by contractors who have indicated they are interested in bidding on the project. The bid opening, according to the mayor, is set for Aug. 18. He also said he expects the work to begin right after Labor Day and to be completed early next year. “Everything seems to be coming together now,” said Gerlach. He said the idea of using the old school building – closed for nearly a decade and transferred to the village soon after closing – for a village hall came up about a year ago and everything began to move into place for moving forward. “The village was in desperate need of jail space,” the mayor said, adding that the new office space for other village personnel will make for a more efficient operation than in the current village hall which dates back to the 19th century. He also explained that the village had obtained a loan for the initial work on the building which has certain specific requirements since one half will be devoted to the jail operation. He said the jail will “pay for itself” once in operation because of the real demand from surrounding areas for a place to send their prisoners. The jail will be equipped GALLIPOLIS — During a regular meeting of the Gallipolis City Commission on Tuesday, the commission voted down four emergency ordinances relating to the funding of the new city justice center — ordinances that, according to City Auditor Annette Landers, are unnecessary thanks to interest from local banks, one of which will provide financing for the construction of the facility. “In my mind I don’t see any reason in going ahead and adopting those ordinances,” Landers said in reference to the ordinances that would have allowed the city to participate in the Ohio Capital Asset Financing program to finance the construction of the new building as well as other emergency road improvement projects. Ohio Capital Asset Financing (OCAF), a program offered by the Center for Local Government to Ohio communities, recently showed interest in financing the facility. The program allows multiple communities to combine their borrowing needs to provide better interest rates to the entities who agree to participate in the program. The commission had considered utilizing the program until, according to Landers, three local banks agreed to either match or beat the interest rate provided by OCAF — an interest rate that will not be released until Aug. 18. “There’s no sense jerking them around when we know we want to go with the local banks,” Landers said. “We always wanted to go with the local banks but, of course, that is your decision, if they meet or beat, we are not going to lose anything; they are assuring us of that.” Adopting a loan from a local bank will also have added benefits, according to Landers, who stated See Hall, A2 See Center, A2 Look Good, Feel Better!

In addition, a total of $412,260.08, over the life of the loan, will be paid by the water pollution control fund (WPC). This annual payment will total $80,000 per year until 2016. An additional $12,260.08 will be paid from the fund in 2017. According to Landers, this payment will come from interest the WPC fund has incurred for many years — interest that should have gone back into the general fund in accordance with state law. Due to these payments, for the first several years of the loan, only $31,591.44 a year will be extracted from the general fund for the financing of the city building. After 2017, and the final payment from the WPC fund, the general fund will front a $111,591.44 portion of the annual payment. However, according to Landers, in November of this year, the loan purchasing the Davis Hall property will be paid off in full — a current annual payment of $31,498.85 that will coincide with the approximately $30,000 that will come from the general fund for the payment of the justice center until 2017. In addition, the so-called Ameresco Project, an energy savings program that began in 2005 and was performed for the city by Ameresco Energy, Inc., will be paid off in 2015. This will free up approximately $120,000 a year that will coincide with the approximate general fund cost of financing the new structure post 2017. “We will not be paying any more per year than we’re paying right now for Davis Hall,” Landers said. “That will go on for the first few years, and by the time that falls off and the WPC fund has already paid everything that they needed to pay back to us, the Ameresco project will be over with as well.” Landers further reported that although the city have to remain conservative financially as it moves forward with the new justice center, the project is something that the city can afford. “This will not strain us any more than what we’re doing right now and I think we are doing very well as a municipality. We are doing quite well compared to many,” Landers said. “We will have to be very careful going into the future because of changes that have been made at the state level but I believe that we are able to make those adjustments and I think we’ll meet those challenges as they come.” The first payment on the loan financing the Gallipolis City Justice Center will be due in June 2012. Construction on the facility will begin later Keeping Meigs & this year at the location of the former Gallipolis Gallia informed Municipal Building, 518 Sunday Second Avenue. that the local banks will allow the city to pay against the principal and interest of the loan during each of its bi-annual payments. The first yearly payment through OCAF would be an interest only payment and the second, a principal and interest payment, a fact that would result in a larger overall interest payment. “We want to go ahead and pay principal and interest in June. We also want to pay it in December. We don’t want to have only one principal payment per year,” Landers said. “We will end up paying a huge amount more in interest over the life of that [loan] if we had it structured that way. ... I really do believe they [the local banks] will serve us better.” The commission later agreed to move forward with the process of requesting the local banks to bid for the loan relating to construction of the city justice center, the purchase of the Cox property and the construction of the auxiliary fire station. A possible secondary loan for the purpose of paying a portion of the cost of repairing Hedgewood Drive, the construction of the secondary cemetery access road to Mound Hill Cemetery and slip repair at the cemetery may also be utilized in the near future. According to Landers, this second 20-year loan could be taken out by the city for the financing of the various road repair projects. However, this loan would depend upon the portion of those projects that may be paid for by federal and state disaster funds. The amount of this disaster funding, paid for by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may not be known until later this year. The city will need to move forward immediately with financing the city justice center, the Cox Property — which will provided access to the city building — and the approximately $42,000 for a portion of the auxiliary fire station currently being constructed at the foot of Mound Hill Cemetery. According to Landers, initial figures indicated that the city justice center would cost the city approximately $2.5 million, however, after consulting Project Engineer Randy Breech, new figures indicate that the bid for the construction of the justice center will come in at a considerably lower figure. “I’ve revised the figure because I had thought that $2.5 million was what we were borrowing for the justice center, however ... when Randy [Breech] came in and he gave his estimate of what the construction would cost, he said between $2.1 and $2.2 million,” Landers said. The estimated $2.1 to $2.2 million, with the added funding for the Cox property and the auxiliary fire station, would put the loan at approximately $2.342 million. At an estimated interest rate of 5.27 percent and with a 25 year loan of $2.342 million, the annual payment for financing would total $169,633.54 — a $84,816.77 payment in June and a $84,816.77 payment in December. According to figures provided by Landers, $55,000 of this annual payment will come from the Gallipolis Sunday: A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. Partly sunny, with a high near 89.

According to the Building A Better Ohio website: “Issue 2 makes some very fair and common sense requests of our government employees to give local communities the flexibility they need to get taxes and spending under control, while providing the essential services that we rely on.” “Building A Better Ohio” also states “even under the reforms of State Issue 2, Ohio’s government employees will still receive better pay, better health care and better retirement benefits, on average, than the vast majority of Ohioans who work in the private sector. Ohio’s economic recovery begins with reclaiming our schools, respecting our taxpayers found on the Internet, with a presence on Facebook and Twitter.

The first phase of the work has been completed. Some of the rooms have been gutted in preparation for new construction. All new windows have been installed in the building to meet requirements for operating a jail, asbestos abatement has been completed, and the old school is ready for conversion into a village hall with jail facilities. Gerlach said that the gym which is in the center of the building will be available for community use or for a shelter in the event of an emergency. Once the construction is completed village hall operations will be moved from the Race Street location into the new building. As to what will happen to the current village hall remains in question. While it is in deteriorating condition, it has some historical significance to the village. �Sunday, August 7, 2011 Gallia County Calendar Card Showers Glenna Rothgeb will celebrate her 94th birthday on August 10.

JOYCE BROTHERS Dear Dr. Brothers: I am friends with a gay guy at work who is planning a road trip in a few months to a place we both want to visit. It seems like a good idea to share the expenses of driving to our faraway destination. The problem is, it will involve a night on the road in each direction, and my friend wants to share a room to save money. Even though he’s gay, I feel funny about it, since he’s not my boyfriend or anything (I’m a girl). Am I being immature? I don’t want to hurt his feelings. — L.G. Dear L.G.: This is a very personal decision you are weighing, and regardless of whether your friend is gay, you have to do whatever makes you feel the most comfortable. He may see you as just a friend with whom he’s close enough to share a room, and he’s not focusing on your femininity, your modesty or his own role as a male you aren’t related to or in love with. But you needn’t think of this as an issue about sexual identity and lifestyles. Just explain to him that you are not comfortable sharing a room. You don’t have to explain why. I’m sure you’d have a hard time pinpointing exactly what bothers you about the idea. If it would make things less awkward for you, there are all sorts of reasons you can invent to take the focus off the sexuality or gender issues. You can tell him that you are a loud snorer, or that it is impossible for you to sleep in a room that isn’t a certain temperature, with the fan blowing on you or the heat turned on or whatever strange sleep issue you can come up with. You Dr. Joyce Brothers need total darkness, or you need to have the TV blasting all night, or whatever. Soon he will be suggesting different motels or maybe that you just bite the bullet and take a plane! Dear Dr. Brothers: My wife has been watching a certain ballroom-dancing contest show on TV for a couple years, and she recently decided to force me to take dance lessons with her. I hate everything about it! I don’t have rhythm, I don’t like the music, I don’t like her being held by some sleazy teacher, and I don’t like her looking at me dancing with a sleazy woman instructor. She’s already talking about taking another group of lessons, and I can’t keep pretending that I like it. — G.R. Dear G.R.: You’ve dug quite a hole for yourself, and your dancing is either better than you think or so ���� ���� � Serving You Since 1933 awful that your wife feels you need another chance to try to get it right. Either way, you probably have invested a lot in trying to fool your wife into thinking you are having a good time, and that is mentally and emotionally exhausting. Your wife probably would not want to force you to keep dancing if it is really such an unhappy experience for you. Have you thought of asking her if she would go to the lessons as a single, or if she could be matched up with someone else from the class or who the instructors know needs a partner? Your wife may find these alternatives depressing or hurtful, but if she really wants to concentrate on the dancing, she will be able to let you gracefully withdraw or go with her just to watch her progress from the sidelines. I know you’d prefer her partner to be an instructor or other student who is not attractive or “sleazy,” but you also have to try to trust your wife a bit more as she pursues her interest. Why don’t you finish out this group of lessons and then talk to her about where you would like to go from here? Who knows, maybe she would like to join you at a cooking class or learning to build a birdhouse — no dancing skills required! (c) 2011 by King Features Syndicate � � �� � ���...

I’d like to take this opportunity to say “thank you” to all of the fine people of Gallipolis for playing such an important role in my life. During my childhood and teenage years, Gallipolis provided a very safe, loving and supportive environment.

Gallipolis will always have a special place in my heart and I am extremely proud to admit that I spent the most formative years of my life in this beautiful southeastern Ohio River town. Gallipolis was, and I am confident that it will remain, the most beautiful community along the Ohio River. Lori Tope Hardwick Don’t let Gov. Kasich sell Ohio Turnpike Dear Editor: Why should we pay [foreign companies] for the privilege of riding on our own money-generating highway system that we built and paid for? It is currently earning approximately $250 million a year for Ohio. We would only gain a one-time infusion of additional money to pay current bills that our kids and future generations will be paying for many years to come. This idea has major functional problems. Previous sales in other states have lessened their ability maintain and care for their roads and has prevented them from implementing needed expansion. This has also curtailed their ability to make proper decisions that affect local businesses. We will have inadequate control of future toll increases. Indiana mistakenly sold their toll road system to a foreign company. Drivers complain that the prices have doubled over five years. The cost to travel the Ohio turnpike today is $15, in just five years time your cost could be $30 or more! We need to tell Governor Kasich Ohio is NOT for sale! Macy T. Block, Dublin, Oh.

Published every Sunday, 825 Third Avenue, Gallipolis, OH BY DAVID GERMAIN AP MOVIE WRITER LOS ANGELES — There's no disputing the evolution of Hollywood apes since "King Kong" first terrorized audiences in 1933. Back then, the king of the apes was a fur-covered puppet. In the old "Planet of the Apes" tales, simians were played by people in ape suits. Today's movie apes have gone digital. The prequel "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," opening in U.S. theaters Friday, features chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans crafted through performance-capture, in which the motions and features of human actors were recorded digitally, then layered over with computer animation to create photo-realistic primates. It's the same technology used for the giant gorilla in Peter Jackson's 2005 "King Kong," with the same actor who did Kong, Andy Serkis, playing the lead chimp in the "Apes" prequel. Serkis said it greatly enhanced the story's authenticity for him to be on set and in character as chimpanzee Caesar alongside James Franco, Freida Pinto and other co-stars playing the human roles. That's even though he was dressed in a skintight outfit covered with reference dots for the digital cameras and wearing a rig on his head to record facial expressions. He didn't look remotely like a chimpanzee, but he had freedom of movement and expression the actors lacked on 1968's original "Planet of the Apes," whose makeup earned the film an honorary Academy Award. "It did look phenomenal and iconic, but they had to kind of falsely move their faces around, move their mouths and generate a lot of energy just to keep those rubber masks alive. Because if they stopped, it would just look like coconut shells," Serkis said. "That is the thing that performance-capture technology completely eliminates. You don't have layers of anything that is between you and the performance. So whereas you don't get the kind of stimulation of a costume, as an actor playing a performance-capture character, you have the total freedom to know that whatever you're thinking and feeling and generating and receiving from another actor is completely truthful, and is born out of here, in the heart." Serkis led a cast of actors and stuntmen whose performances were the basis for about 150 apes that make a huge leap in intelligence through exposure to a drug being tested as a cure for Alzheimer's. The original "Planet of the Apes" and Tim Burton's 2001 update featured apes that had evolved over centuries into thinking, talking creatures that walked upright as their limbs took on more human proportions. So humans in ape suits made sense. But "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" features the simians we know, that move about on all fours, with shorter legs and longer arms than humans. Actors in costumes could not have realistically simulated those proportions — and live apes could not have delivered the smarter-than-your-average-chimp performances, the filmmakers said. "None of these things would have worked for us because of the story," said Joe Letteri, who won a visual-effects Oscar for Jackson's "King Kong" and was senior visualeffects supervisor on "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." ''We need to see the apes evolve, especially Caesar, from being a chimp we recognize to being able to have this behavior they acquire through this enhanced intelligence. Essentially, they had to perform like something more than apes but still look like real apes." Serkis has become an able observer of ape behavior, studying gorillas for his Kong role in Rwanda with researchers for the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, on whose board of trustees he serves. While Serkis' performance-capture Kong looked strikingly real, the 1933 original starring Fay Wray remains an artistic triumph that may be dated, yet still is a visual wonder. That Kong was created through stopmotion animation, in which the gorilla puppet was meticulously moved and filmed one frame at a time. Stop-motion animation also was used for the huge gorilla in 1949's "Mighty Joe Young." The ape in the 1998 remake was created by a mix of a guy in a gorilla suit, a mechanical puppet and computer effects. The 1976 "King Kong" starring Jeff Bridges and Jessica Lange was a critical dud but did pick up a visual-effects Oscar. The great ape that time was a hybrid — blending the man-in-a-gorilla-suit approach with some scenes using a giant mechanical Kong. B-movies have a long history of putting people in cheesy ape suits, but when done well, the costumes can be remarkably effective. Hollywood's king of the ape outfit is makeup master Rick Baker, whose credits include the 2001 "Planet of the Apes," the 1976 "King Kong" and the 1988 Fossey drama "Gorillas in the Mist" and who earned Oscar nominations for the 1998 "Mighty Joe Young" and 1984's "Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes." Like the 2005 "King Kong," ''Rise of the Planet of the Apes" puts Caesar and his simian pals into huge action and fight sequences requiring acrobatics far beyond the capabilities of men in ape suits. Performance-capture was the only choice for director Rupert Wyatt. "We knew that we couldn't use actors in prosthetic suits just because we're dealing with real apes. We wanted from the get-go to tell the story in as plausible and in as real-world a way as possible," Wyatt said. "And have 150 apes all captured in such a way that would be believable to a very savvy modern audience."

Now is a best time to plan to reseed as the soil is warm, soil can be prepared for proper seedbed, fewer annual weed seeds germinate this time of year, and the grass/alfalfa can become well established before winter weather set in. Make sure you have taken and followed the recommendations of a soil test before planting. Alfalfa needs a minimum oil pH of 6.5, while most grasses prefer a minimum pH of 6.0 to grow best. Seed recommendations are based on the use of the land, Will it be used for a pasture, hay, playfield or lawn?

For those For the Record Sheriff’s report: Meigs County Sheriff Robert Beegle reports on Thursday his office received a report from Catherine Cutcher, Beech Grove Rd., Rutland, that on Saturday, July 23 her residence was robbed. Stolen items included DVDs, a coin collection and gold jewelry. Samuel Bennett, School Lot Rd., Albany, reported he had a boom pole stolen from his tractor along with a tarp. Beegle also wants to alert residents about a current scam. Residents are receiving letters from “Allen Securities, Inc., New York,” which say the resident has won $50,000 in the “Lotto North American and European Sweepstakes Lottery” held on May 30. There is a check enclosed in the amount of $2,660 for processing fees. The resident is instructed to deposit the check in their account and then send $2,460 to the process agent in Valencia, Spain so that the $50,000 prize can be sent - this is definitely a scam, Beegle said. Residents are asked to always keep their banking information confi- dential. Anyone with any information on these cases is asked to call the sheriff’s office at 992-3371. Enters plea: Curtis, S.

So, parks spokeswoman Terri Leist says her department this week came up with a new policy of 10-minute shutoffs for potty breaks every two hours. Joe Harrod with Columbus Public Health says fecal problems pop up regularly at pools and spray parks. By-the-book cleanup and disinfection can take just 20 minutes. Ohio Briefs Microchip may hold clue to fatal Ohio biplane crash BEAVERCREEK (AP) — A camera’s microchip may help investigators determine what caused the crash that killed both pilots of a Wright Brothers-style biplane in western Ohio. A member of the allvolunteer nonprofit Wright “B’’ Flyer Inc. organization who flew the biplane during test flights says it had a camera mounted between pilots showing the instrument panel. Don Stroud tells the Dayton Daily News the camera could record audio of pilots’ conversations. Stroud says he’s being consulted by crash investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administration. The July 30 crash killed 73-year-old Don Gum, of Beavercreek, and 64-year-old Mitchell Cary, of Yellow Springs. Federal investigators say an announcement of what caused the accident could take up to eight months.

Now the two sides are parting ways, but no one is explaining why. The 85-year-old comedian told reporters last week that he plans to hold a press conference the day after this year’s telethon to talk about what he thinks is important. When pressed by a reporter about his role with the telethon, Lewis said: “It’s none of your business.” The Tucson, Ariz.based association announced this week that after 45 years, the comedian was no longer its national chairman and he would not appear on the telethon this year. Association spokesman Jim Brown declined to say what prompted the decision. And Lewis publicist Candi Cazau of Las Vegas also declined to comment, telling The Associated Press Thursday that comedian was traveling outside his home state of Nevada. In May, Lewis said in a statement issued through the association that he would make his final appearance on the telethon this year and sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” during a six-hour primetime broadcast scheduled for Sept. 4. But during a session with reporters last week at a Te l ev i s i o n Critics Association press tour to promote an upcoming TV documentary, “Method to the Madness of Jerry Lewis,” Lewis hinted that his involvement in raising money for muscular dystrophy research wasn’t finished. “Who told you that?” Lewis asked a reporter who asked him how he felt about this year being his last telethon. “I never read it.” “Do you remember when the New York Times printed, ‘Dewey wins’? I rest my case, pal,” Lewis said. “Anything you read, read it twice.” In 1948, the Chicago Tribune famously printed the headline “Dewey defeats Truman” the day after Harry Truman beat Thomas Dewey in the presidential election. Lewis also harshly criticized reality television shows that include heavy involvement from telethon co-hosts Nigel Lythgoe and Alison Sweeney. Lythgoe is executive producer of “American Idol,” which Lewis called a singing competition of “McDonald’s wipeouts,” while Sweeney hosts weight-loss show “The Biggest Loser.” “You just have to be bad. The business is scrounging around for what to do,” Lewis said when asked how comedic actors can become great today. “And the first thing a good comic must do is let them know he hasn’t changed. “He can bring that same veracity and that same performance to a medium that’s running around, knocking their brains out trying to see how we beat the fat lady at 375 pounds, and in four months she’s going to be 240. Who (cares),” Lewis said. “It’s ridiculous.” When asked what he’d have to do to be satisfied with his life, Lewis said: “Get the cure for muscular dystrophy, then I’m fine.” Lewis later said he would hold a press conference Sept. 5 to clarify his plans. “I will have plenty to say about what I think is important. And that’s the future, not the past,” he said.

Despite the warm weather, a total of 39 individuals and five teams competed in the triathlon. The Race on the River triathlon includes a 5K run, 20K bike and 200 meter swim. Last year 29 individuals and seven teams took part in the first event. A 5k run and walk was also held in addition to the triathlon. A total of 19 runners and 14 walkers completed the race. Last year, 25 runs and 18 walkers took part. Age group winners in CANTON, Ohio (AP) — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith each grabbed a side of the massive 300page collective bargaining agreement between the players and league owners and exchanged a relieved handshake while posing for the cameras. And just like that, 4 1/2 months of acrimony, anger and posturing from both sides during the protracted NFL lockout was over. Smith and Goodell signed the new CBA on a makeshift stage on the steps of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Friday morning, a largely ceremonial gesture after the players agreed to ratify the 10-year agreement Thursday night. Still, there was a sense of relief from both Smith and Goodell, who shook hands three times during the brief signing and even hugged after spending nearly half a year in tense negotiations haggling over a new way to distribute the NFL’s massive revenue stream. “We’re all relieved because football is back,” Goodell said. “That’s what our fans want, and that’s what we all want and we’re thrilled that we got it done.” One fan shouted “thank you” to Smith as he took his seat, with Smith answering “more than welcome.” Following the signing both men glad-handed their way to the NFL Network’s set inside the Hall of Fame Gallery. With the busts of Hall inductees serving as a backdrop, Smith and Goodell detailed the sometimes difficult journey to the new deal. Neither pointed to a breakthrough moment in the lengthy talks, instead crediting leadership on both sides for being able to find common ground so the 2011 season could be saved. Goodell said a small group of player representatives and owners did the leg work of putting aside the considerable differences between the two groups and focusing on the future. “There was a tremendous amount of respect and an attempt to find solutions,” Goodell said. “Once we understood each other and we understood that that was what we were there for, we got it done.” Both Goodell and Smith were vague on the possibility of HGH-testing. Smith called it “something to be strived for,” with Goodell adding “’’we’re going to get it done but we want to get it done right.” Testing could begin by the start of the regular season, though the specifics are still being worked on, as are several other details. It didn’t stop Smith from celebrating a “joyous” day.

GAHS basketball coach Tom Moore will serve as the Master of Ceremonies and will include the introductions of the band, administration, coaches and staff — including members of all levels of football, volleyball, golf, soccer, cross country and cheerleading. In case of inclement weather, activities will be canceled. GAHS VARSITY FOOTBALL SCRIMMAGE GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Gallia Academy High School will be hosting a football scrimmage against Meigs High School on Friday, Aug. 19, at Memorial Field. The admission price is $5 per person and a portion of the proceeds will go to the Holzer Cancer Center. This game will serve as preparation for the regular season, generate excitement for the football season, and help a worthy cause in our community. This preseason event kicks off at 7:30 p.m. CBA from Page B1 process has turned him into a celebrity of sorts, and he spent several minutes posing for pictures with fans before being whisked away in a van. Though the players were eager to get back to work, not every team walked in lockstep to ratify the CBA. The Pittsburgh Steelers voted no, citing the rushed nature of the deal — the Steelers didn’t receive a copy until 3 p.m. — and the agreement’s inability to address Goodell’s role as judge and jury for onthe-field discipline. “We felt it was shoved down our throats,” Pittsburgh defensive tackle Willie Colon said Thursday. Smith declined to discuss Pittsburgh’s vote. NFLPA spokesman George Atallah said simply “we’re happy to be back playing football.” Asked if the NFLPA viewed the defending AFC champion’s decision to vote against the deal as a protest, Atallah said, “ask (Steelers player representative) Ryan Clark.” Clark said he wouldn’t discuss the outcome of the vote, though both he and Pittsburgh quarterback Charlie Batch acknowledged there were some players on the 90man roster who were not in favor of the deal. Not that it mattered to Scott Hill and Mike Bond, longtime Denver Bronco fans who made their way to Canton to watch former Denver tight end Shannon Sharpe’s enshrinement on Saturday. Neither Hill nor Bond felt the season was in danger, figuring once both sides realized what was at stake they’d come to their senses. “It cost the Hall of Fame game, it cost nothing more,” Hill said. “There was a lot of stuff in the press to try and get us worried, but until it got to the point where it was actually going to matter, there was no reason to get worried. ... This, this was all made up.” Maybe, but the league didn’t do quite enough to appease Tony Dearing. The Hall of Fame game’s cancellation means Dearing won’t be able to throw a little cash into 8year-old daughter Peyton’s college fund. Dearing spends every Hall of Fame weekend at his father-in-law’s house on Blake Ave., which sits across the street from Fawcett Stadium, the site of the Hall of Fame game each year. The family sells water and lemonade to fans and offers a handful of prime parking spots for $10. Dearing estimates he deposits between $300$350 into his daughter’s college account when the weekend is over. This weekend, instead of working during the game, the family will hold a reunion of sorts instead.

It’s not bad, but it’s not a game. Then again, it could be worse. There could be no football at all. Instead, the nation’s most popular sport will have labor peace for a decade.

A step back for Woods, but he didn’t hurt himself AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Tiger Woods took a step back in the Bridgestone Invitational, only it had nothing to do with his leg. Woods was a little sloppy at times with his short game, a sign of rust from having not played a tournament in nearly three months, and fell back to the middle of the pact at Firestone with a 1-over 71 on Friday. He missed a 2-foot putt for par. A bunker shot from just below the green on the par5 second hole barely got to the fringe. A shot from the rough that covered the flag took a hard hop over the green and led to a double bogey. At least he wasn’t limping. “I didn’t putt as well as I did yesterday, and consequently, I just never got the round going,” Woods said. The conditions were about the same as they were for the opening round — hot, humid, soft and ripe for low scores. Rickie Fowler had eight birdies and holed out from the fairway for eagle in his round of 64 to share the early lead at 8-under with Adam Scott and Ryan Moore. Woods wound up seven shots behind, his chances hurt not by the shots he has to make up on the weekend, but the number of players in front of him. The hardest part about not having competed since May 12? “It’s usually my short game, but I have a shortgame facility in the backyard, so I can’t say that,” Woods said, alluding to his new home in south Florida. “Here this week, it’s been getting the ball the right number. It’s just as hot at home, if not hotter. The ball should be flying about the same, but it’s not. I’m swinging better, so I’ve got to get used to new numbers.” He attributed the ordinary round to distance control, an issue he mentioned Thursday. But his short game is where he failed to make up any ground. It started on the 14th hole, when Woods appeared to get out of a jam after his tee shot found the slope of a deep bunker. He hit a wedge for his third shot that spun back to 2 feet from the cup. He stepped over the putt like he would any other from that distance, then stood back in shock when it rimmed around the edge. On the next hole, he chipped weakly to 7 feet and started walking right after hitting his par putt, knowing he had the wrong line. The day wasn’t all bad. Woods fired a 3-iron up the hill to about 5 feet for birdie on the 17th, and bounced back from another bogey — again set up by a poor chip — with a birdie on the fifth. What cost him was the sixth, when his shot out of moderate rough went over the flag, hopped off the back edge of the green and swirled around the collar of a bunker before rolling into the sand. From a slightly downward slope, the green running away from him, he had no shot. Woods blasted out through the green, ran his 50-foot putt some 6 feet past the hole and missed that for a double bogey. “Today was not very good,” Woods said of his putting. “The path wasn’t very good going back. It was underneath the path and it was under the plane, and it was just not very good.” That was about as technical as Woods wanted to discuss. Asked about swinging easier and hitting it longer, he finally said to one reporter, “I don’t want to explain it to you guys.” Nor was he in much of a mood to change his expectations. Not much has been expected of Woods this week. He last completed a tournament on April 10 at the Masters. He has one COMING SOON!

BIDWELL HARDWARE 8997 SR 160 Bidwell, Ohio 704-446-8828 60228222 �Sunday, August 7, 2011 Campana helps surging Cubs top Reds CHICAGO (AP) — Tony Campana drove in a pair of runs with an inside-the-park homer and the Chicago Cubs beat the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 on Friday for their sixth consecutive victory. It was the first professional homer for Campana, who also singled, doubled and made a nice catch in center field. Campana became the first Cub ever to hit an insidethe-park shot at Wrigley Field for his first major league homer. Ryan Dempster (9-8) struggled with his control, matching his season high with six walks, but held the Reds to two runs and four hits in six innings. Carlos Marmol got three outs for his 22nd save in 28 chances. Ramon Hernandez homered for Cincinnati, which has lost three of four since a three-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants. Brandon Phillips and rookie Yonder Alonso each had two hits. Reds starter Mike Leake (9-7) allowed three runs and six hits in six innings. He also had an RBI single in Cincinnati’s two-run fourth that trimmed Chicago’s lead to 3-2. Sunday Times-Sentinel • Page B5 Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis 3 4 The Cubs jumped on Leake in the first. Starlin Castro hit a leadoff single and Campana followed with a slicing drive that landed inside the left-field line, bounced off the brick wall in foul territory and rolled past stumbling left fielder Alonso. Campana, among the fastest players in baseball, zipped around the bases and scored standing up before the Reds could even return the ball to the infield, electrifying the crowd while some fans were still looking for their seats. It was the Cubs’ first inside-the-park homer at Wrigley Field since Sammy Sosa accomplished the feat against the Pirates on Oct. 6, 2001. Campana, who is from Kettering, Ohio, and played college ball at the University of Cincinnati, never homered in 1,308 plate appearances in the minor leagues. Colvin added his fourth homer in the second inning, a drive into the right-field bleachers. Castro also singled in the second and eighth, upping his NL-best hit total to 146. Hernandez struck out to leave the bases loaded in the first, but the Reds rallied with two out in the fourth. With runners on first and second, Leake hit a shallow fly to center. Campana raced in and made a diving attempt, but the ball popped out of his glove when he struck the ground, allowing Alonso to score. Frazier then scored on a wild pitch. Campana got another chance in the seventh and hauled in Phillips’ deep drive to center just left of the 400-foot sign. Carlos Pena added a sacrifice fly in the bottom half, but Hernandez connected against Kerry Wood in the eighth. Hernandez’s 11th homer cut Chicago’s lead to 4-3. NOTES: Reds OF Chris Heisey was held out of the lineup for the second straight game after injuring his left oblique during batting practice in Houston on Wednesday. He was used as a pinchrunner in the eighth inning. Manager Dusty Baker said Heisey was to be examined by team doctor Timothy Kremchek in Chicago on Friday. ... Baker said SS Zack Cozart reported he was feeling better and was slated to take batting practice before the game. Cozart has been on the disabled list since July 24 with a hyperextended left elbow. . Cubs manager Mike Quade said he’s leaning toward giving Rodrigo Lopez another start when his turn in the rotation comes up again. Lopez has allowed 12 runs in 8 1-3 innings over his last two starts. . Johnny Cueto will pitch for the Reds on Saturday against Carlos Zambrano. Cueto (7-4, 1.72 ERA) needs to throw at least 3 13 innings to qualify for the league ERA lead, which he held earlier this week before falling shy of the required one inning pitched per team game played. San Francisco’s Ryan Vogelsong currently leads the National League with a 2.19 ERA. Zambrano will be going for his 17th career win against Cincinnati. . After starting the season 25-17, the defending NL Central champion Reds are just 29-41. Ohio State takes back ‘JT’ wristbands COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Two days after several Ohio State freshmen proudly displayed wristbands supporting deposed Buckeyes coach Jim Tressel, the university has taken them away and refunded the players’ money. Ohio State spokesman Jerry Emig said Friday that officials wondered if wearing the wristbands — which said “JT” — could be an NCAA violation. “We don’t know that yet, but that’s what compliance is looking into,” Emig said. Since Ohio State goes before the NCAA’s committee on infractions on Aug. 12, it might also appear that the school remains firmly behind a coach who was forced out on May 30. Tressel was pressured to resign when it was revealed he knew some of his players had broken NCAA rules but did not report it for more than nine months. “There was a concern that maybe this isn’t a thing that should have been done,” Emig said of the wristbands, which were worn by several freshmen at a news conference on Wednesday. He added that Ohio State decided to take a “cautionary” approach after the wristbands, which were sold by an Ohio State staffer, were mentioned prominently in several media reports. After turning in their wristbands, players’ $15 was refunded. Emig said interim head coach Luke Fickell was unaware that a staffer had sold the wristbands.

You start eliminating options. He held up well.” Defense dominated despite cornerback Joe Haden not practicing because of a tight hamstring and rookie lineman Jabari Fletcher being carted off with a sprained right knee.

Cocktail Table & End Tables Reg. $179.99 60228207 BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Josh Cribbs is confident he will make plays for the Cleveland Browns. As usual, he’s not certain when or how. The dynamic kick returner caught some passes, lined up in the backfield a bit, and even completed a pass in his return to practice Friday after missing three days of team drills with a left leg strain. “My leg feels fine,” Cribbs said. “I needed to get out there for conditioning, just to get back in the groove.” The Browns have long sought to get Cribbs into their offensive flow, using his breakaway ability in a variety of roles out of the backfield or at wide receiver. A quarterback in college, Cribbs was a key part of a wildcat formation often employed last season by Eric Mangini, fired as coach after a 5-11 finish. New coach Pat Shurmur won’t utilize the wildcat much, but intends to get the ball to Cribbs in other ways. “He is not a big fan of the wildcat, but he is a big fan of giving me the football,” Cribbs said. “Every way he can, out of the pocket. I don’t know if you saw me at quarterback when Colt (McCoy) pitched the ball to me, but he is going to do everything he can to put the ball in the hands of guys that can make plays.” Shurmur said essentially the same thing. “He’s not going to be limited,” Shurmur said. “Cribbs is a fantastic player and we’re going to try and put him in position to make plays — however we can do it. “There are some routes I think he runs very well. I think he’s progressing as a receiver.” Rules changes have moved kickers up 5 yards, but Shurmur doesn’t think it will hinder the star returner. “There’ll be some strategy to it,” Shurmur predicted. “At times, the ball is going to get popped up in the air as high as you can, then try and get the coverage down and swarm the returner. If situations dictate that returner is out of this world, you don’t want him to touch it, and you have a kicker that can bang it through the end zone, then you’re not going to let him touch it.” Cribbs was coy about his opinion on the rule change. “I have a lot of thoughts on that, but I can’t define it because I’d probably get in trouble,” he said. Cribbs believes new special teams coordinator Chris Tabor is ahead of the game in making adjustments. “Tabor is a really good scheme artist,” he said. “He had (Devin) Hester in �Page B6 • Sunday Times-Sentinel Pomeroy • Middleport • Gallipolis Sunday, August 7, 2011 Fowler part of 4-way tie as Woods falters AP Sports Briefs AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Rickie Fowler had eight birdies and an eagle to give himself another shot at winning. Adam Scott did well enough to stay in the lead. PGA Tour rookie Keegan Bradley got in on the action late. It seemed as if everyone was in contention Friday at the Bridgestone Invitational. Except for the guy most everyone came to see. On another soft day that was ripe for low scores, Tiger Woods missed a 2-foot putt and didn’t make enough birdies to atone for his short-game mistakes during a 1-over 71 that left him in the middle of the pack. He was only seven shots behind, but had 35 players in front of him at Firestone. “Today was not very good,” Woods said. It was good enough for Scott, except for making the putts he holed in the opening round of this World Golf Championship. He had a 70, which is never bad at Firestone in any condition. After opening with a 62, Scott was at 8-under 132 along with Ryan Moore (66), Fowler (64) and Bradley (65). Jason Day bogeyed his last hole for a 70 and was one shot behind with Martin Laird (67) and Robert Karlsson (65). “The last time I shot 62 was probably a long time ago, so am I going to expect to do it two days in a row?” Scott said. “I don’t think so. But it’s a hard golf course, and if you’re just a little off, you get quite severely penalized. There’s no real secret that it’s not easy to shoot a couple of 62s.” Fowler was all over the place. He made only five pars, and kept his gallery guessing the rest of the time. There were three straight birdies, and a wedge he holed from 110 yards for eagle on No. 3. He followed that with three bogeys and three pars. “A lot of good things came out of today,” said Fowler, who is still searching for his first win. “Building some confidence going into the weekend.” No one appeared to have more fun than Bradley, the nephew of LPGA Hall of Fame player Pat Bradley and a winner this year at the Byron Nelson Championship. With big crowds lingering even after Woods left the course, he could hear plenty of cheers for birdies all around him, and even some for himself as he worked his way to the top of the leaderboard. “I had Luke Donald behind me, Phil Mickelson a few groups behind me,” Bradley said. “I mean, it’s something that I dream about since I was 2 years old. It’s kind of happening in front of my eyes, which is a weird feeling to describe. But it’s spectacular. I just can’t express how much fun I’m having out there.” His biggest birdie came at No. 3, even though it was only a 12foot putt. Bradley played a money game with Mickelson on Wednesday, in which Mickelson serves as a mentor until the final holes when the four-time major champion cares only about getting into Bradley’s pocket. Mickelson pointed to a hole location that can be tricky. The putt looks as if it should break right, but it actually moves left. “And sure enough, I had this exact putt he W.VA. WESLEYAN HIRES JIM BOONE AS BASKETBALL COACH Rickie Fowler chips on to the 10th green during secondround play at the 2011 WGCBridgestone Invitational at Firestone Country Club on Friday in Akron, Ohio. Fowler carded a 64 on the day to join a group of four atop the leaderboard at 8-under. Ed Suba Jr./ Akron Beacon Journal/MCT brought me over to,” Bradley said. “I wanted to make it so bad so I could go back and tell him later tonight.” Mickelson was among those who couldn’t keep up with 31 guys who broke par in the second round. He holed out from the 11th fairway for eagle, but followed that with a double bogey on the par3 12th, and finished with a pair of bogeys for a 73 that put him at even par, eight shots behind. Geoff Ogilvy had a tough time, as well. The former U.S. Open champion was two shots out of the lead and playing the easiest hole at Firestone, the par-5 second, when he four-putted from 35 feet for double bogey, and finished an annoying round with back-to-back bogeys that dropped him back to a 70 and put him at 2-under 138. Lee Westwood, taking mental help from Bob Rotella and putting tips from Dave Stockton, was right in the thick of it until dropping four shots on the last six holes for a 71 that also put him at 138. The starting times for Saturday were moved to the early morning because of storms anticipated in the afternoon. Saturday could go a long way in sorting out who has control of the final tournament before the PGA Championship next week in Atlanta. Woods is not out of it yet, but his short game was of no help to him. The shocker was the 2foot par putt he missed on the 14th, followed by another bogey on the 15th set up by an ordinary chip. His back nine was marred by a double CHRISTIAN MORRIS CONSTRUCTION, INC. For all your construction needs bogey when his approach from the rough went just beyond the green and took a wicked hop into a suspect lie in the bunker. He could have escaped with par except for a three-putt from 50 feet. “I didn’t putt as well as I did yesterday,” he said, “and consequently, I just never got the round going.” For those ahead of him, it’s off to the races. Twenty players were separated by only four shots going into the final two rounds, a group that includes U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy, Steve Stricker, Nick Watney and Ryo Ishikawa of Japan, who was three shots behind.

Wesleyan athletics director Ken Tyler announced Boone’s appointment Friday in a news release. Boone comes to Wesleyan from Tusculum College, where he had served as men’s basketball coach since 2005. The Winfield native also has been a head coach at California (Pa.), Robert Morris and Eastern Michigan. He also was an assistant coach at West Virginia State. His career record is 409-319. Boone will replace Jeff Price. Price recently resigned to become an associate head coach at South Alabama. ILLINI, W. VIRGINIA TO SCRIMMAGE DURING ITALY TRIP CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Illinois will be joined by West Virginia in a stop at an American air base on its upcoming trip to Italy. The university says the Illini and Mountaineers will be at Aviano Air Base on Aug. 17. The teams will face each other on base in a short scrimmage. They’ll also conduct a clinic for children of troops stationed at the base north of Venice. The teams will also hold a dunk contest and scrimmage against some of the troops. Illinois coach Bruce Weber says the event required an NCAA waiver. He says he’s looking forward to the visit. The Illini leave for Italy on Aug. 10 and return ten days later. They’ll play Italian pro squads and other teams while abroad.

Andrus sparked the game-ending rally with a two-out bunt single against Rafael Perez (42). He advanced to second on Perez’s wild pitch, and Hamilton hit a soft grounder to shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera. Hamilton slid headfirst into first, beating Cabrera’s throw. Andrus never stopped after rounding third and beat first baseman Matt LaPorta’s one-hop throw to the plate. Neftali Feliz (1-2) tossed 1 2-3 scoreless innings for the win. Jimenez pitched fiveplus innings in his first start since he was acquired from Colorado on July 31. He was charged with five runs and seven hits, but was in line for the victory until the Rangers rallied with two out in the ninth. Hamilton singled off Chris Perez before Michael Young drove a 2-0 pitch over the wall in center for a tying two-run homer. It was Perez’s third blown save in 25 chances. Jimenez was 6-9 with a 4.46 ERA in 21 starts for Colorado. He had to wait to make his Indians debut because he threw 45 pitches on July 30 in a one-inning outing in his final start for the Rockies. Carlos Santana homered and had a careerhigh five RBIs for Cleveland. Santana’s three-run drive in the first and two-run double in the second came off Derek Holland. Shelley Duncan, called up from Triple-A Columbus earlier in the day, also homered for the Indians in a game played in 105-degree heat, matching the highest first-pitch temperature in Rangers Ballpark history. Mike Napoli went deep for Texas, his fifth homer in seven games. Napoli has an RBI in seven straight games, setting a career high. Holland was coming off his third shutout in a span of five starts, but he got into trouble early in this one. He surrendered back-to-back first-inning singles to Jason Kipnis and Asdrubal Cabrera before Santana drove a 3-2 pitch into the rightfield seats for his 17th homer. Cleveland added three more in the second, helped by Andrus’ error on a two-out grounder to shortstop. Kipnis had a run-scoring bouncer and Santana’s big hit extended the lead to 61. Holland allowed six runs, four earned, and five hits in 1 2-3 innings. It was his shortest outing since he recorded just two outs against Florida on July 2. Duncan’s drive in the third made it 7-2, but GEORGETOWN, Ky. (AP) — The best play of the night? A.J. Green made it, of course. That’s happening almost every day now in Bengals camp. Green made a diving catch along the sideline during an 11-on-11 drill Friday night, a prelude to Cincinnati’s scaled-back training camp scrimmage. It was the crowd pleaser. “When you see oneon-one (coverage) with A.J., it’s going to trigger something in you to take a shot down there,” rookie quarterback Andy Dalton said. “He’s a big guy, he’s physical and he can make a lot of catches.” He’s making the spectacular ones look routine. The Bengals took Green with the fourth overall pick out of Georgia, giving themselves a replacement for Chad Ochocinco. They traded Ochocinco to New England for draft picks, making the rookie their primary receiver. He’s playing the part so far. During an 11-on-11 drill against the starting defense, Dalton was under pressure and simply threw the ball deep down the left sideline, hoping Green could catch up to it. The receiver stretched out and came down with the ball while landing hard inbounds — easily the best play of the night. It excited the fans. The coaches? Not so PROUD TO BE A PART OF YOUR LIFE. The Sunday Times-Sentinel the Rangers kept chipping away at the lead. Mitch Moreland doubled in a run in the third and Napoli had a leadoff drive in the sixth.

He’s fun to watch. Every time I see someone lined up on him kind of 7 or 8 yards deep, I feel like yelling at the quarterback, ‘Throw it to A.J.!’” Green didn’t make a big deal out of it. “It was a good catch,” he said. “Not one of my best. I can do that pretty much nine times out of 10. It’s nice making a big play in front of my teammates.” How could it have been better? “I probably could have scored on it,” he said. “I probably should have stayed up and tried to run through it, but I chose to dive. I was a little tired.” The rest of the night was more humdrum by design. The Bengals severely scaled back the annual camp scrimmage because many of the players had practiced only once. Free agents couldn’t work out with the team until Thursday because the NFL’s new labor agreement wasn’t approved until then. Usually, the Bengals give the ball to the offense and see how far it can advance on downs. This time, they did only about 15 minutes of scrimmaging, running 18 plays in all from midfield. Unlike previous years, nobody kept statistics. Dalton, a secondround pick from TCU, is getting the first shot at the starting job. He worked with the starting unit and got the most snaps of the four quarterbacks during the scrimmage part of practice. Dalton has run most of the plays throughout camp, learning a little more of the offense each day. “Andy had another great day,” Gruden said. “He was efficient on third-down (plays), had some key completions, got the ball out of his hand when he had to. He’s doing a good job of managing the game so far.” He’s in line to start the preseason opener next Friday in Detroit. “They’ve been giving me a lot of snaps, giving me the opportunity to go out there and start everything off,” Dalton said. “I think they’re just trying to get me ready, get me looks against the defense, and hopefully getting me ready for the preseason game next week.” O’Dell True Value Lumber Evolutions Cellwood Vinyl Siding $48.99/sq. white Khaki & Wicker $54.99/sq White soffit in Solid, Perf, or Center Vent $8.99/12ft pc Limited Lifetime Warranty See salesman for samples & free estimates 61 Vine Street, Gallipolis 740-446-1276 with our Carpet Cleaning Special 2 rooms and hall for only $99.00 Call Today Service Tech Today (740)446-9523 Over 25 years experience AWARD WINNING Buckeye Hills Career Center Adult Center Now Enrolling for Fall Classes 2011 Basic Peace Officer Building/Property Maintenance Cosmetology Industrial Maintenance Medical Office Pharmacy Technician Phlebotomy Practical Nursing Surgical Technologist Welding Financial Aid is Available to students who qualify hos 418 Silver Bridge Plaza e fr omGallipolis, Ohio *Excludes repairs and sale items.

SATTER ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON — Former Beatle Paul McCartney said Thursday he would contact police over his exwife's claim that the couple had been spied upon by a British newspaper. In comments to U.S. television journalists delivered via videolink from Cincinnati, Ohio, McCartney said that he would be in touch with law enforcement as soon as he was finished with his summer tour. "I will be talking to them about that," McCartney told the Te l ev i s i o n Critics Association in Los Angeles, just hours before a perfomance. "I don't think it's great. I do think it is a horrendous violation of privacy, and I do think it's been going on a long time, and I do think more people than we know knew about it. But I think I should just listen and hear what the facts are before I comment," he said. McCartney is the latest celebrity to be dragged into Britain's phone hacking scandal, which centers on allegations that journalists routinely eavesdropped on private phone messages, bribed police officers for tips and illegally obtained confidential information for stories. Until recently the scandal was largely been limited to the British arm of Rupert Murdoch's media empire, but an allegation made Wednesday by McCartney's former wife Heather Mills implicates the Trinity Mirror PLC group of newspapers, and CNN celebrity interviewer Piers Morgan, who once edited the group's flagship Daily Mirror tabloid. It is one of several indications that the phone hacking scandal could yet spread to other British newspapers — even the Guardian, which helped unearth the scandal. Mills' allegation, made Wednesday in an inter- view with the BBC, was that a senior Mirror journalist admitted to her that his paper had been spying on her messages. While the broadcaster said that the unidentified man was not Piers Morgan, the former model's allegation echoes a claim Morgan himself made back in 2006 — a few months after the couple began divorce proceedings. In an article published by the Daily Mail, Morgan said that he had been played a tape of a message McCartney had left on Mills' cell phone in the wake of one of their fights. "It was heartbreaking," Morgan wrote. "He sounded lonely, miserable and desperate, and even sang 'We Can Work It Out' into the answerphone." Questions over how Piers Morgan came to hear such a message have led several British lawmakers to call on him to return to the U.K. and explain himself. Morgan has so far not offered comment on his article, although he did describe Mills' allegation as unsubstantiated and noted that the judge in the couple's divorce case had cast aspersions on her credibility. He has repeatedly denied having ever ordered anyone to spy on others' voicemails, while his former newspaper group has insisted that its journalists obey the law. Mills' office on Thursday declined to elaborate on what she told the BBC, but said that the 43-year-old "looks forward to receiving Piers Morgan's answer as to how he knew the content of her private voicemail messages." Several British parliamentarians have also said that Morgan has questions to answer — among them Conservative legislator Therese Coffey. "I think it would help everybody, including himself and this investigation, if he was able to say more about why he wrote what he did in 2006," Coffey told the BBC Wednesday. Morgan's publicist, Meghan McPartland, said that as far as she knew the CNN star — who is spending his summer working as a judge on "America's Got Talent" — was not returning to England to answer questions. Morgan himself made light of the calls on his Twitter feed, saying he found it "so heartwarming that everyone in U.K.'s missing me so much they want me to come home." In a separate development, the publisher of Britain's Daily Mail newspaper announced late Thursday that it was reviewing its editorial procedures. No reason for the review was given, but Morgan is one of many media veterans who've claimed that phone hacking and other shady practices were common across Britain's newspaper industry. And in what is surely one of the odder twists in the phone-hacking tale, it emerged that a senior journalist with the Guardian — whose aggressive investigative work helped air the scandal — had apparently acknowledged hacking into a phone. "I've used some of those questionable methods myself over the years," David Leigh wrote in a piece published by the Guardian in 2006 and still posted to the paper's website. The investigations editor described intercepting the voicemails of a corrupt arms company executive, admitting that there was "certainly a voyeuristic thrill in hearing another person's private messages." But he insisted he was after a serious scoop, not celebrity gossip. In any case, Leigh wrote, "there is not a newspaper or TV channel in the country that has not, on occasion, got down in the gutter and used questionable methods." The Guardian's press office was unstaffed early Friday morning. Leigh did not immediately return an email and a text message seeking comment.
