Hate-crime arrests.in'Qurim desecrations at Pace University NEW YORK (AP)- A. 23-year-old man was arrested on hate-crime charges after he threw a Quran in a toilet at Pace University on two different dates, police said. Stanislav Shmulevich of Brookfyn was arrested July 27 on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment, bOth hate crimes, police said. It was unclear if he was a student at the school. A message left at the Shmulevich home was not returned. Muslims view the Quran as a sacred object and consfder mistreating it as an offense against God. The religion teaches that the Quran is the direct word of God. In the Pace incident, a teacher found the Islamic holy book on Oct. 13 in a toilet on the lower Manhattan campus. A student discoveied another book in a toilet on Nov. 21, police said. Muslim students accused the school of not taking the incident seriously enough at first. Pace classified the first desecration of the holy book as an act of vandalism, but university officials later reversed themselves and referred the incident to the New York Police Department's hate crimes unit. The incidents came amid a spate of vandalism cases with religious or racial overtones at the school. In an earlier incident on Sept. 21, the school reported another copy of the Quran was found in a library toilet, and in October some. one scrawled racial slurs on a student's car at the Westchester County sate IIi te campus and on a bathroom wall at the campus m lower Manhattan. Police did not connect Shmulevich to those incidents. Pace University has 14,000 students on its campuses in New York City and suburban Westchester County. I If ' I Pastor Kerry Wood izing it, a whole generation is already coming up behind me. And I'm not particularly well equipped to handle them. l wonder if that happened to Jesus. The gospel of Luke tells us about the time people were bringing their children to Jesus, just so he could touch them. "When the disci pies saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the king· dum of God belongs to such as these."' (Luke 18:15-16) The disciples seemed ill equipped to handle the kids. Probably some of them were crying. I would guess a few of the infants and toddlers had soiled bottoms and didn't smell very good (after all, there · were no Pampers back then). As travelers, the disciples certainly didn't have a lot of toys on hand to keep the children entertained. So it was easier to get rid of the problem by dismissing them, driving the children away. But that's not how Jesus wanted the children treated. He called for them, gathered them into his arms and loved them, stinky bottoms and all. Are we embracing children In our churches today? I am blessed to have several families with young children in my church. Yes, they sometimes cry in the middle : Iff f f · 740.992·3325 www.teafordrealestate.net J( [((( Hills Self Storage 29670 Bashan Rd.

We each learned things about ourselves and one another during the week. Cassandra discovered she The Dally Sentinel • Page A3 WORS1rHPGOD ·THIS WEEK BRIDGING THE GAP Last week ,my four-yearold niece, Cassandra, came to visit us for the week. It was my most intense experience with a preschooler in over a decade. How quickly we forget the way things were "back then!" For example, I'd forgotten about the impOrtance of the bedtime rituals. My youngest daughter (now a teenager) occasionally still comes to me for goodnight hugs and kisses, but otherwise it's each on~ to his or her own. I don't even define when its bedtimq anymore. Cassandra, however, has an elaborate ritual with a series of steps that must be followed in exact order at the appropriate time. Otherwise, she will not relax and go to sleep. The first night was rretty easy. Cassandra stil had the excitement of coming to visit us. The second night, all the newness had worn off and she fully realized Mommy and Daddy were not around. Homesickness set in, and I experienced a four-yearold's expression of angst. It wasn't very pretty. · We also had to dig out all the old Disney movies on VHS tapes that hadn't been watched in ages. Otherwise, our house had very little in the way of easy entertainment options. "Remember when we had so many toys that we had to convert the dining nmm into a playroomr' I asked my wife. "What happened to them?" "They're long gone dear - all except a few keep· sake toys packed away m · plastic buckets in the basement." That's when It struck me.

Hate-crime arrests.in'Qurim desecrations at Pace University NEW YORK (AP)- A. 23-year-old man was arrested on hate-crime charges after he threw a Quran in a toilet at Pace University on two different dates, police said. Stanislav Shmulevich of Brookfyn was arrested July 27 on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment, bOth hate crimes, police said. It was unclear if he was a student at the school. A message left at the Shmulevich home was not returned. Muslims view the Quran as a sacred object and consfder mistreating it as an offense against God. The religion teaches that the Quran is the direct word of God. In the Pace incident, a teacher found the Islamic holy book on Oct. 13 in a toilet on the lower Manhattan campus. A student discoveied another book in a toilet on Nov. 21, police said. Muslim students accused the school of not taking the incident seriously enough at first. Pace classified the first desecration of the holy book as an act of vandalism, but university officials later reversed themselves and referred the incident to the New York Police Department's hate crimes unit. The incidents came amid a spate of vandalism cases with religious or racial overtones at the school. In an earlier incident on Sept. 21, the school reported another copy of the Quran was found in a library toilet, and in October some. one scrawled racial slurs on a student's car at the Westchester County sate IIi te campus and on a bathroom wall at the campus m lower Manhattan. Police did not connect Shmulevich to those incidents. Pace University has 14,000 students on its campuses in New York City and suburban Westchester County. I If ' I Pastor Kerry Wood izing it, a whole generation is already coming up behind me. And I'm not particularly well equipped to handle them. l wonder if that happened to Jesus. The gospel of Luke tells us about the time people were bringing their children to Jesus, just so he could touch them. "When the disci pies saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the king· dum of God belongs to such as these."' (Luke 18:15-16) The disciples seemed ill equipped to handle the kids. Probably some of them were crying. I would guess a few of the infants and toddlers had soiled bottoms and didn't smell very good (after all, there · were no Pampers back then). As travelers, the disciples certainly didn't have a lot of toys on hand to keep the children entertained. So it was easier to get rid of the problem by dismissing them, driving the children away. But that's not how Jesus wanted the children treated. He called for them, gathered them into his arms and loved them, stinky bottoms and all. Are we embracing children In our churches today? I am blessed to have several families with young children in my church. Yes, they sometimes cry in the middle : Iff f f · 740.992·3325 www.teafordrealestate.net J( [((( Hills Self Storage 29670 Bashan Rd.

If, on the other hand, I say ' no ,' there 's a good possibility that you might reason that then I couldn't poss ibly understand what you're facing or what you're going through right now. "So, what that question amounts to is a lose-lose proposition for both of us, and I'm not willing to put us in that position, so I'm not going to answer that question:· There was a time when youth pastors - not to mention senior ministers - would have . felt more cont1dent answering. There was a time when adults thought it was their duty to tell young people that some things were right and some things were wrong period. The assumption was that adults had a sacred duty to serve as moral examples and that was that. Candor was rarely pan of the equation. Then the pendulum swung in the other direction, said Robbins, and many religion . leaders joined what is often called the "authenticity movement." The goal was 'to open up and level with young people in an attempt to impress them · with di splays of openness and vulnerability. By sharing the details of his or her own sins and temptations, the youth pastor hoped to gain credibility - inspiring young people not to make the same errors. But there 's a problem with letting it all hang out, said Robbin s. "It so easy to get carried away and, before you know it, your whole body language and the relish with which people tell these sto· ries can send the wrong sig· nal. You may end up leav· ing a kid thinkin~ , 'Well, I wonder if I could do some· thing really bad like that. That sounds kind of cool. ' " The problem, he said, is that it's hard not to cross the line between honest, transparent disclosure and imprudent, naked exhibi· tionism. Nevertheless. it's true that young people need to hear that it's normal to struggle with sin and temptation and that there are adults who want to help them because they have faced many of the same issues - in the past and in the present. "It is completely appro- priate, for example, for the st udents in my youth group to know that I struggle with lust," noted Robbins. "On the other hand, if I continue by say ing, ' In fact, Sally, your mom is a fox!' - that crosses a 1ine." This kind of self-expo· sure has to have a purpose, said Robbins. It's a good thing for adults to acknowJ. edge that they struggle with sin, but it can be destr\Jc. tive if that's the end of the story. Young people need to know that God "loves us the way that we are, but he doe sn't intend to leave us as we are," he said. "It's one thing for me to tell my youth group that I struggled with this or that sin and, with God's help, have managed to put it behind me," explained Robbins. "It's something else to just say that I struggled and struggled. and struggled and that there just doesn't seem to be a way to be forgiven by God and go on ti:J lead. a better life .... That isn't much of a Gospel, now is it?"

But these are rational men and women, and what they're doing is carefully designed to achieve specific goals. Take the Democrats. They swept into control of both houses of Congress in November 2006, pledging to achieve all sorts of traditional Democratic objectives. In .. fact, however, they knew perfectly well that George W. Bush would continue to be president until January 2009, and that he could and would veto any highly partisan measures passed by the new Congress. Moreover, their narrow margin in the House and razor-thin edge in the Senate eliminated any possibility that they might be able to override any vetoes that thwarted therq. So the Democratic Congress of 2007-08 was bound to be an exercise in political futility, at least in terms of achieving any meaningful legislation. The . Democrats knew this, even if the American people did not. So they are concentrating on using these two years to advance their real objective, which is to capture the presidency in the 2008 elec- William Rusher tion. In practical terms, this means making George W. Bush look bad . The Democrats in control of Congress have two major means of furthering this end. The first is to introduce and, if possible, pass -bills that sound attractive to the average voter but which they know President Bush will, for one reason or another, be sure to veto. That is the motive behind the various bills up for discussion, · chiefly in the Senate but also in the House, which try (more or less seriously) to force the president to withdraw our troops from Iraq. The Democrats contend that the Congressional elections of 2006 resulted in a clear mandate from the voters to pull out of Iraq , and that Bush is simply defying the will of the people by refusing to do so. They are probably wrong in attributing such a simplistic view to the voters, but they are undeniably tapping into a widespread public dis- what Congress can compel satisfaction with the war. officials of the executive Moreover, they can play branch to testify about. innumerable variations on .

Parents, toy companies stressed over recall of toys made in China that contain too much lead Bv ANNE D'INNOCENZIO .AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK - Wendy Sch'\eider-Fisher is nervous about what toys to buy her children. "I'm less ilielined to. buy anything from China," said Schneider-Fisher, of New . Albany, Ohio, who was heading into a local Toys "R" Us Thursday. "And I'm upset our government doesn't do more to stop it." ~ Schneider-Fisher's comments reflect the quandary .many Amj:rican parents face after the world's largest toy company, Mattei Inc., recalled almost 1 million t:lii!rese"made 1oys because they may contain lead. As if fears over contaminated toothpaste, poisoned pet food and faulty tires . weren't enough, the latest recall of Chinese-made products has anxious parent& rummaging through toy chests to find tainted Big Birds and Dora tlie Explorer toys. It also has stressed-out toy companies going through their inventory to see · if their products are harmless. And it has China, again, insisting that its products are safe. On Thursday, Mattei's Fisher- Price brand announced it is recalling 83 types of toys - including !he popular Big Bird, Elmo, Dora and. Diego characters - .because their paint contains excessive amounts of lead. The recall involves 967,000 plastic preschool toys made by a Chinese vendor and sold in the United States between May and August. Under current U.S. regulations, children's products found to have more than 0.06 percent lead are subject to a recall. · For parents, replacing the tainted toys with ones they trust are safe .could pose a problem: 80 percent of all toys are made in China. "It seems like everything's from China but if I could t1nd a similar toy that was American made, I would definitely buy it even if it cost more," said Allen Tourism fro~PageA1 Commissioners also: • Approved payment of bills in the amount of$144,866. • Approved an appropria- Mayne, of Columbus, Ohio, who was shopping at a local Toys "R" Us for his 9-yearold daughter. "I think it would be in everyone's best interests to look for American-made products, stuff you can feel confident about, stuff that's just not the cheapest junk that you can get," he satd. With discounters like WalMart Stores Inc. waging price wars, the pressure has been on toy companies to cut costs by producing cheaper toys in China. With exceptions like Mattei, which esti· mates that about 50 percent of its production in China is made in company-owned pliltits, mwiy toy companies turn to contract factories, a cheaper alternative. Thursday's toy recall follows the June recall by RC2 Corp. of 1.5 million wooden railroad toys and set parts from its Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line because of lead paint. Those toys were also made in China. Industry experts are worried there will be more toy recalls to come, and fear parents will be more skeptical when bu:ying holiday toys, even avmding Chinese products altogether. "Everyone is concerned that this could really undermine the traditional toy business if consumers think that the toys are unsafe," said New York-based toy consultant Chris Byrne. Mattei, considered by experts as a role model in how to do business in China, remained in crisis control Thursday. The company contends the recall was "fasttracked," allowing it to quarantine two-thirds of the toys before they even made it to stores. Still, executives are trying to find out how this situation happened. "There is an extreme 's ense of urgency," said David Allmark, general manager of Fisher-Price.

AP photo This is the scene of the collapsed 35W bridge over the Mississippi River Thursday, in Minneapolis. The eight-lane Interstate 35W bridge was Minnesota's busiest bridge, carrying 141 ,000 vehicles a day. It was in the midst of mostly repaving repairs . when it buckled during the evening rush hour. Dozens of cars plummeted more than ,60 feet i'nto the Mississippi River, some falling on top one of another. A school bus sat on the angled concrete. Engineers wondered whether heavy traffic might have contributed to the col· lapse. Studies of the bridge have raised concern about cracks caused by metal fatigue. "I think everybody is looking at fatigue right now," said Kent Harries, an assistant professor of civil and envtronmental engineering in the University of Pittsburgh's School of Engineering. "This is an intersta~ bri~ge that sees a lot ·of trUck ttlffic:" · ··" After. a sludy raised concern about cracks, the state was given two alternatives: Add steel plates to reinforce criticid parts or conduct a thorough inspection of certain areas to see if there were additional cracks. They chose the inspection route, beginning that examination in May. Dorgan said officials considered the cracks on parts of the bridge to be stable and not expanding. When conducting inspections, Dorgan said, inspectors get within an arm's length of various components of a bridge. If they spot cracks, that leads to more hands-on testing to determine the depth and extent of the fissures. Although concern was rarsed about cracks, some experts theorized it's no cmncidence the collapse happened when workers and heavy equipment was on the bridge. The construction work involved resurfacing and maintenance on guardrails and lights. among other repairs. "I would be stunned if this dido 't have something to do with the construction pro- ject," said David Schulz, director of the Infrastrucure Tecchnology Institute at Northwestern University. "I think it's a major factor." The collapsed bridge's last full inspection was completed June 15, 2006. The report shows previous inspectors' notations of fatigue cracks in the spans approaching the river, including one 4 feet long that was reinforced with bolted plates. A 1993 entry noted 3,000 feet of cracks in the surface of the bridge; they were later sealed. That inspection and one a year earlier raised no immediate concerns about the bridge, which wasn' t a candidate for replacement until 2020. In a 2001 report from the University of Minnesota's Department of Civil Engineering, inspectors found some girders had become distorted. Engineers also saw evidence of fatigue on trusses and said .the bridge might collapse if part of the truss gave way under the eight· lane freeway. "A bridge of that vintage you always have to be concerned about that," said Richard Sause, director of the Advanced Technology for large Strucmral Systems Center at Lehigh University. "In a steel bridge of that age, sure you ' d be concerned about those kind of things and be diligent about looking after it. And it seems like they were." It takes time for a fatigue crack to develop, but a crack can then expand rapidly to become a fracture, said James Garrett, co-director of the .Center for Sensed Critical Infrastructure Research at Carnegie Mellon University. "If you , get a crack that goes un\letected it would be something that appears to happen more rapidly." At the scene, about · 15 divers and a dozen boats were in the water, but the search was proceeding slowly because of strong currents and low visibility. By mid-afternoon , they had located four submerged cars besides the dozen or so visible from the surface. "We have a numbet of vehicles that are underneath big pieces of concrete, and we do know we have some people in those vehicles," Police Chief lim Dolan said. "We know we do have more casualties at the scene." Over6roo( ~fta6ifitation Center . is ftaving ayara sa{e! Where: Overbrook's Front Lawn 333 Page Street, Middleport, OH When: Friday August 3, 2007 .

Tim Pawlenty responded Thursday by ordering an immediate inspection of all brid~es in the state with similar designs, but said the state was never warned that the bridge needed to be closed or immediately repaired. "There was a view that the bridge was ultimately and eventually going to need to be replaced," he said. "But it appears from the information that we have available that a timeline for that was not immediate or imminent, but more · in the future." Federal officials alerted states to immediately inspect all bridges similar to the one that collapsed. , 7 ,, •r ..., ' f H' i i . . , II ... ,.. ~· ' t T ~·· · Bo1 Office ()pen• 0 6:30 PM FOR EVENHG SHOWS 12:30 PM D.I!LYUA.nNEES OPEN FOR FEATURING pJueoo 9-1 7 40-992-5787 7 40-992-7022 Silverheels A Realty Company-EHO MINNEAPOLIS Minnesota officials were warned as early as 1990 that the bridge that collapsed into the Mississippi River was ':Structurally deficient," yet they relied on patchwork repairs and stepped-up ins~ctions that unraveled amid a thunderous plunge of concrete and automobiles. "We thought we had done all we could," state bridge engineer Dan Dorgan told reporters not far from the mangled remains of the span. "Obviously something went terribly wrong." Questions aoout the cause of the collapse and whether it could have been prevented arose Thursday as authorities shifted from rescue efforts to a grim recov • ery operation, searching for bodi.es that may be hidden beneath the river's swirling currents. The official death count from Wednesday's rushhour collapse stood at four, with· another 79 injuries. But police said the death count would· surely grow because bodies had been spotted in the water and as many as 30 people were still reported missing. The Army Corps of Engineers lowered the river level a foot to help recovery efforts, said agency spokeswoman Shannon Bauer. In 1990, the federal gov.ernment gave the I-35W bridge a rating of "structurally deficient," citing significant corrosion in its bearings. The bridge is one of .a bout 77,0QO bridges in that category nationwide, 1,160 in Minnesota alone. The designation means some portions of the bridge needed to be scheduled for repair or replacement, and it was on a schedule for inspection every two years. Dorgan said the bearings could not have been repaired without jackin~ up the entire deck of the bndge. Because the bearings were not sliding, inspectors concluded the corrosion was not a major issue. During the 1990s, later inspections found fatigue cracks and corrosion in the steel around the bridge's joints. Those problems were repaired. Starting in 1993, the state said, the bridge was inspected annually instead of every other year. A 2005 federal inspection also rated the bridge structurally deficient, giving it a 50 on a scale of 100 for structural stability. White House press secretary Tony Snow said while the inspection didn't , indicate the bridge was at risk of failing, "if an inspection report identifies deficiencies, the state is responsible for taking corrective CR 7A • POMEROY, OH HUD Subsidized Efflclancy/1 Bedroom SOyra or qualifying disability Low Income priority • The Daily Sentinel • Page As www.mydailysentinel.com Deaths Youth ministers strnggle.to be candid about life's struggles It's the question that preachers, teachers · and 111 Court Street • Pomeroy, Ohio parents dread, especially if • (740) 992-2156 • FAX (740) 992-2157 they ·were shaped by the www.mydallyeentlnel.coin cultural earthquakes of the 1960s.

If, on the other hand, I say ' no ,' there 's a good possibility that you might reason that then I couldn't poss ibly understand what you're facing or what you're going through right now. "So, what that question amounts to is a lose-lose proposition for both of us, and I'm not willing to put us in that position, so I'm not going to answer that question:· There was a time when youth pastors - not to mention senior ministers - would have . felt more cont1dent answering. There was a time when adults thought it was their duty to tell young people that some things were right and some things were wrong period. The assumption was that adults had a sacred duty to serve as moral examples and that was that. Candor was rarely pan of the equation. Then the pendulum swung in the other direction, said Robbins, and many religion . leaders joined what is often called the "authenticity movement." The goal was 'to open up and level with young people in an attempt to impress them · with di splays of openness and vulnerability. By sharing the details of his or her own sins and temptations, the youth pastor hoped to gain credibility - inspiring young people not to make the same errors. But there 's a problem with letting it all hang out, said Robbin s. "It so easy to get carried away and, before you know it, your whole body language and the relish with which people tell these sto· ries can send the wrong sig· nal. You may end up leav· ing a kid thinkin~ , 'Well, I wonder if I could do some· thing really bad like that. That sounds kind of cool. ' " The problem, he said, is that it's hard not to cross the line between honest, transparent disclosure and imprudent, naked exhibi· tionism. Nevertheless. it's true that young people need to hear that it's normal to struggle with sin and temptation and that there are adults who want to help them because they have faced many of the same issues - in the past and in the present. "It is completely appro- priate, for example, for the st udents in my youth group to know that I struggle with lust," noted Robbins. "On the other hand, if I continue by say ing, ' In fact, Sally, your mom is a fox!' - that crosses a 1ine." This kind of self-expo· sure has to have a purpose, said Robbins. It's a good thing for adults to acknowJ. edge that they struggle with sin, but it can be destr\Jc. tive if that's the end of the story. Young people need to know that God "loves us the way that we are, but he doe sn't intend to leave us as we are," he said. "It's one thing for me to tell my youth group that I struggled with this or that sin and, with God's help, have managed to put it behind me," explained Robbins. "It's something else to just say that I struggled and struggled. and struggled and that there just doesn't seem to be a way to be forgiven by God and go on ti:J lead. a better life .... That isn't much of a Gospel, now is it?"

But these are rational men and women, and what they're doing is carefully designed to achieve specific goals. Take the Democrats. They swept into control of both houses of Congress in November 2006, pledging to achieve all sorts of traditional Democratic objectives. In .. fact, however, they knew perfectly well that George W. Bush would continue to be president until January 2009, and that he could and would veto any highly partisan measures passed by the new Congress. Moreover, their narrow margin in the House and razor-thin edge in the Senate eliminated any possibility that they might be able to override any vetoes that thwarted therq. So the Democratic Congress of 2007-08 was bound to be an exercise in political futility, at least in terms of achieving any meaningful legislation. The . Democrats knew this, even if the American people did not. So they are concentrating on using these two years to advance their real objective, which is to capture the presidency in the 2008 elec- William Rusher tion. In practical terms, this means making George W. Bush look bad . The Democrats in control of Congress have two major means of furthering this end. The first is to introduce and, if possible, pass -bills that sound attractive to the average voter but which they know President Bush will, for one reason or another, be sure to veto. That is the motive behind the various bills up for discussion, · chiefly in the Senate but also in the House, which try (more or less seriously) to force the president to withdraw our troops from Iraq. The Democrats contend that the Congressional elections of 2006 resulted in a clear mandate from the voters to pull out of Iraq , and that Bush is simply defying the will of the people by refusing to do so. They are probably wrong in attributing such a simplistic view to the voters, but they are undeniably tapping into a widespread public dis- what Congress can compel satisfaction with the war. officials of the executive Moreover, they can play branch to testify about. innumerable variations on .

Parents, toy companies stressed over recall of toys made in China that contain too much lead Bv ANNE D'INNOCENZIO .AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK - Wendy Sch'\eider-Fisher is nervous about what toys to buy her children. "I'm less ilielined to. buy anything from China," said Schneider-Fisher, of New . Albany, Ohio, who was heading into a local Toys "R" Us Thursday. "And I'm upset our government doesn't do more to stop it." ~ Schneider-Fisher's comments reflect the quandary .many Amj:rican parents face after the world's largest toy company, Mattei Inc., recalled almost 1 million t:lii!rese"made 1oys because they may contain lead. As if fears over contaminated toothpaste, poisoned pet food and faulty tires . weren't enough, the latest recall of Chinese-made products has anxious parent& rummaging through toy chests to find tainted Big Birds and Dora tlie Explorer toys. It also has stressed-out toy companies going through their inventory to see · if their products are harmless. And it has China, again, insisting that its products are safe. On Thursday, Mattei's Fisher- Price brand announced it is recalling 83 types of toys - including !he popular Big Bird, Elmo, Dora and. Diego characters - .because their paint contains excessive amounts of lead. The recall involves 967,000 plastic preschool toys made by a Chinese vendor and sold in the United States between May and August. Under current U.S. regulations, children's products found to have more than 0.06 percent lead are subject to a recall. · For parents, replacing the tainted toys with ones they trust are safe .could pose a problem: 80 percent of all toys are made in China. "It seems like everything's from China but if I could t1nd a similar toy that was American made, I would definitely buy it even if it cost more," said Allen Tourism fro~PageA1 Commissioners also: • Approved payment of bills in the amount of$144,866. • Approved an appropria- Mayne, of Columbus, Ohio, who was shopping at a local Toys "R" Us for his 9-yearold daughter. "I think it would be in everyone's best interests to look for American-made products, stuff you can feel confident about, stuff that's just not the cheapest junk that you can get," he satd. With discounters like WalMart Stores Inc. waging price wars, the pressure has been on toy companies to cut costs by producing cheaper toys in China. With exceptions like Mattei, which esti· mates that about 50 percent of its production in China is made in company-owned pliltits, mwiy toy companies turn to contract factories, a cheaper alternative. Thursday's toy recall follows the June recall by RC2 Corp. of 1.5 million wooden railroad toys and set parts from its Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line because of lead paint. Those toys were also made in China. Industry experts are worried there will be more toy recalls to come, and fear parents will be more skeptical when bu:ying holiday toys, even avmding Chinese products altogether. "Everyone is concerned that this could really undermine the traditional toy business if consumers think that the toys are unsafe," said New York-based toy consultant Chris Byrne. Mattei, considered by experts as a role model in how to do business in China, remained in crisis control Thursday. The company contends the recall was "fasttracked," allowing it to quarantine two-thirds of the toys before they even made it to stores. Still, executives are trying to find out how this situation happened. "There is an extreme 's ense of urgency," said David Allmark, general manager of Fisher-Price.

AP photo This is the scene of the collapsed 35W bridge over the Mississippi River Thursday, in Minneapolis. The eight-lane Interstate 35W bridge was Minnesota's busiest bridge, carrying 141 ,000 vehicles a day. It was in the midst of mostly repaving repairs . when it buckled during the evening rush hour. Dozens of cars plummeted more than ,60 feet i'nto the Mississippi River, some falling on top one of another. A school bus sat on the angled concrete. Engineers wondered whether heavy traffic might have contributed to the col· lapse. Studies of the bridge have raised concern about cracks caused by metal fatigue. "I think everybody is looking at fatigue right now," said Kent Harries, an assistant professor of civil and envtronmental engineering in the University of Pittsburgh's School of Engineering. "This is an intersta~ bri~ge that sees a lot ·of trUck ttlffic:" · ··" After. a sludy raised concern about cracks, the state was given two alternatives: Add steel plates to reinforce criticid parts or conduct a thorough inspection of certain areas to see if there were additional cracks. They chose the inspection route, beginning that examination in May. Dorgan said officials considered the cracks on parts of the bridge to be stable and not expanding. When conducting inspections, Dorgan said, inspectors get within an arm's length of various components of a bridge. If they spot cracks, that leads to more hands-on testing to determine the depth and extent of the fissures. Although concern was rarsed about cracks, some experts theorized it's no cmncidence the collapse happened when workers and heavy equipment was on the bridge. The construction work involved resurfacing and maintenance on guardrails and lights. among other repairs. "I would be stunned if this dido 't have something to do with the construction pro- ject," said David Schulz, director of the Infrastrucure Tecchnology Institute at Northwestern University. "I think it's a major factor." The collapsed bridge's last full inspection was completed June 15, 2006. The report shows previous inspectors' notations of fatigue cracks in the spans approaching the river, including one 4 feet long that was reinforced with bolted plates. A 1993 entry noted 3,000 feet of cracks in the surface of the bridge; they were later sealed. That inspection and one a year earlier raised no immediate concerns about the bridge, which wasn' t a candidate for replacement until 2020. In a 2001 report from the University of Minnesota's Department of Civil Engineering, inspectors found some girders had become distorted. Engineers also saw evidence of fatigue on trusses and said .the bridge might collapse if part of the truss gave way under the eight· lane freeway. "A bridge of that vintage you always have to be concerned about that," said Richard Sause, director of the Advanced Technology for large Strucmral Systems Center at Lehigh University. "In a steel bridge of that age, sure you ' d be concerned about those kind of things and be diligent about looking after it. And it seems like they were." It takes time for a fatigue crack to develop, but a crack can then expand rapidly to become a fracture, said James Garrett, co-director of the .Center for Sensed Critical Infrastructure Research at Carnegie Mellon University. "If you , get a crack that goes un\letected it would be something that appears to happen more rapidly." At the scene, about · 15 divers and a dozen boats were in the water, but the search was proceeding slowly because of strong currents and low visibility. By mid-afternoon , they had located four submerged cars besides the dozen or so visible from the surface. "We have a numbet of vehicles that are underneath big pieces of concrete, and we do know we have some people in those vehicles," Police Chief lim Dolan said.

Tim Pawlenty responded Thursday by ordering an immediate inspection of all brid~es in the state with similar designs, but said the state was never warned that the bridge needed to be closed or immediately repaired. "There was a view that the bridge was ultimately and eventually going to need to be replaced," he said. "But it appears from the information that we have available that a timeline for that was not immediate or imminent, but more · in the future." Federal officials alerted states to immediately inspect all bridges similar to the one that collapsed. , 7 ,, •r ..., ' f H' i i . . , II ... ,.. ~· ' t T ~·· · Bo1 Office ()pen• 0 6:30 PM FOR EVENHG SHOWS 12:30 PM D.I!LYUA.nNEES OPEN FOR FEATURING pJueoo 9-1 7 40-992-5787 7 40-992-7022 Silverheels A Realty Company-EHO MINNEAPOLIS Minnesota officials were warned as early as 1990 that the bridge that collapsed into the Mississippi River was ':Structurally deficient," yet they relied on patchwork repairs and stepped-up ins~ctions that unraveled amid a thunderous plunge of concrete and automobiles. "We thought we had done all we could," state bridge engineer Dan Dorgan told reporters not far from the mangled remains of the span. "Obviously something went terribly wrong." Questions aoout the cause of the collapse and whether it could have been prevented arose Thursday as authorities shifted from rescue efforts to a grim recov • ery operation, searching for bodi.es that may be hidden beneath the river's swirling currents. The official death count from Wednesday's rushhour collapse stood at four, with· another 79 injuries. But police said the death count would· surely grow because bodies had been spotted in the water and as many as 30 people were still reported missing. The Army Corps of Engineers lowered the river level a foot to help recovery efforts, said agency spokeswoman Shannon Bauer. In 1990, the federal gov.ernment gave the I-35W bridge a rating of "structurally deficient," citing significant corrosion in its bearings. The bridge is one of .a bout 77,0QO bridges in that category nationwide, 1,160 in Minnesota alone. The designation means some portions of the bridge needed to be scheduled for repair or replacement, and it was on a schedule for inspection every two years. Dorgan said the bearings could not have been repaired without jackin~ up the entire deck of the bndge. Because the bearings were not sliding, inspectors concluded the corrosion was not a major issue. During the 1990s, later inspections found fatigue cracks and corrosion in the steel around the bridge's joints. Those problems were repaired. Starting in 1993, the state said, the bridge was inspected annually instead of every other year. A 2005 federal inspection also rated the bridge structurally deficient, giving it a 50 on a scale of 100 for structural stability. White House press secretary Tony Snow said while the inspection didn't , indicate the bridge was at risk of failing, "if an inspection report identifies deficiencies, the state is responsible for taking corrective CR 7A • POMEROY, OH HUD Subsidized Efflclancy/1 Bedroom SOyra or qualifying disability Low Income priority • The Daily Sentinel • Page As www.mydailysentinel.com Deaths Youth ministers strnggle.to be candid about life's struggles It's the question that preachers, teachers · and 111 Court Street • Pomeroy, Ohio parents dread, especially if • (740) 992-2156 • FAX (740) 992-2157 they ·were shaped by the www.mydallyeentlnel.coin cultural earthquakes of the 1960s.

Friday, August a, The Daily Sentinel 2007 BYTHEBEND Pastor Thorn Mollohan have little to no alternative to assuming that the situations being painted on the silver screen before their eyes are . the way life really is. As I continue to consider that lamentable pattern of parental failure, the titanic stupidity of our failing to guide and guard our children strikes home to me. It is no small thing to be given the charge as father or mother to the children that God has entrusted to us. And we must expect an ultimate accounting of our job as parents to God Himself. While He knows that we are imperfect and doesn't expect us to be perfect parents, He won't wink at our neglect if neglect characterizes our parenting. And we, of course, want to be wary of neglect in ALL its forms. Not only do we nurture our children physically, academically and athletically, we also are called to guide them in matters of morals, justice, character and (most importantly) spiritual things. But if you are intimidated by being that kind of mentor and guide, the anxiety that you're feelin~ is the right emotion (that s EXACTLY what I feel). You and I must therefore learn to depend upon the help of God m the rearing of ·our children. After all , He has promised that "we can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength" (Philippians 4: 13). "Do not fear, for 1 am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you ; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41 :10 NIV). We each must become a "student" of God's Word so that we might learn His heart, His ways and His purposes and then in turn share them with our children. "Hear, 0 Israel: the LORD our God, the Lord is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and ~ith all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the FOad, when you lie down and when you get up" (Deuteronomy 6:4-7 NIV). Neglecting to actively engage this most high calling of nurturing our children towards the thing~ of God is to choose to be agents of damnation for these that God has entrusted to us. And we obviously cannot expect our children to begin to demonstrate any commitment or interest at all to things that God· esteems if we haven't taught them to do so and modeled it to them ourselves. After all, honesty, courage, love; compassion, mercy, faithfulness, and sacrifice have their source. in Him. If we never work to connect our kids to the source, then we Arrangement sets unhealthy example shouldn't expect to see· those things come to' fruition in their character. ~ ''Train up a child in thcl'. way he should go, and wheO: he is old he will not tum: from it ... But a child left t<f. himself disgraces his moth!: er" (Proverbs 22:6;.29:15b): As we think about how: morally and spiritually per·. ilous the world is, let us confess to God the sin of failing to rear our childre~ in His ways and Jet us turn: to Him, wholeheartedly · committing ourselves to not only walk in His ways, but to rear our children in His ways also. And as we consider how heavy but wonderful mantle of parenthood is when God place~ it upon our shoulders, let us remember that God Himself will· be "OUr strength and provider of wisdom as we lean on Him and Jet His Word shape who we are. · Since there isn't a sign on each opportunity presente~ by the world to our children saying, "You Must Be This, Tall To Ride This Ride," the only "signs" our kids have to help them are their par-: ents. Let us then be the best, mostly Godly pare~ts that we can be. After all, the world "is a 'very dangerous thing for someone who isn't ready for it." .

Children, for example, are exposed on a regular basis to the emotionally charged and confusing themes that typical evening television broadcasts into typical homes in our community.

Understanding advance directive COLUMBUS This Ohio summer the Department of Aging asks all Ohioans to consider how sure they are that their pref· erences about emergency and long-term care will be honOred if they unexpectedly were unable to decide for themselves. Advance directives are simple, legal docul)lents that will do just that, but only if you take the time to create them before you need them. "You buy insurance to prepare for moments you hope will never happen. Doing so helps make sure you are financially prepared. Advance directives offer the same peace of mind," said Barbara E. unable to make medical decisions for yourself. A durable power of attorney is generally more useful than a living will, but only if you have someone you trust to make these decisions for you. Make sure they know you've ~iven them this responsibility. A Do-Not-Resuscitate order allows a person to refuse, in advance, any effort to resuscitate· in the event of a cardiac or respiratory arrest. Without such an order, health care providers are obligated to take all measures possible to save you. "People think advance ·directives are only for those who are seriously or terminally ill," said Riley. "However, even if you are Riley, Director of the Ohio Department of Aging. "A simple form communicates your wishes to family, friends and health care professionals if you can't speak for yourself." A living will describes the types of medical treatments you would or would not want if you were seriously or terminally ill. You can accept or refuse medical care. including the use of dialysis and breathing machines, re·suscitation if breathing or heartbeat stops, tube feedin!l and organ or tissue donation. A durable power of attorney names someone to make health care decisions for you and becomes active any time you are unconscious or l in good health, an accident or serious illness can happen suddenly. Even if you are just going into the hospital for a simple outpatient procedure, staff will ask if you have a living will."

Friday, August a, The Daily Sentinel 2007 BYTHEBEND Pastor Thorn Mollohan have little to no alternative to assuming that the situations being painted on the silver screen before their eyes are . the way life really is. As I continue to consider that lamentable pattern of parental failure, the titanic stupidity of our failing to guide and guard our children strikes home to me. It is no small thing to be given the charge as father or mother to the children that God has entrusted to us. And we must expect an ultimate accounting of our job as parents to God Himself. While He knows that we are imperfect and doesn't expect us to be perfect parents, He won't wink at our neglect if neglect characterizes our parenting. And we, of course, want to be wary of neglect in ALL its forms. Not only do we nurture our children physically, academically and athletically, we also are called to guide them in matters of morals, justice, character and (most importantly) spiritual things. But if you are intimidated by being that kind of mentor and guide, the anxiety that you're feelin~ is the right emotion (that s EXACTLY what I feel). You and I must therefore learn to depend upon the help of God m the rearing of ·our children. After all , He has promised that "we can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength" (Philippians 4: 13). "Do not fear, for 1 am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you ; I will uphold you with My righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41 :10 NIV). We each must become a "student" of God's Word so that we might learn His heart, His ways and His purposes and then in turn share them with our children. "Hear, 0 Israel: the LORD our God, the Lord is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and ~ith all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the FOad, when you lie down and when you get up" (Deuteronomy 6:4-7 NIV). Neglecting to actively engage this most high calling of nurturing our children towards the thing~ of God is to choose to be agents of damnation for these that God has entrusted to us. And we obviously cannot expect our children to begin to demonstrate any commitment or interest at all to things that God· esteems if we haven't taught them to do so and modeled it to them ourselves. After all, honesty, courage, love; compassion, mercy, faithfulness, and sacrifice have their source. in Him. If we never work to connect our kids to the source, then we Arrangement sets unhealthy example shouldn't expect to see· those things come to' fruition in their character. ~ ''Train up a child in thcl'. way he should go, and wheO: he is old he will not tum: from it ... But a child left t<f. himself disgraces his moth!: er" (Proverbs 22:6;.29:15b): As we think about how: morally and spiritually per·. ilous the world is, let us confess to God the sin of failing to rear our childre~ in His ways and Jet us turn: to Him, wholeheartedly · committing ourselves to not only walk in His ways, but to rear our children in His ways also. And as we consider how heavy but wonderful mantle of parenthood is when God place~ it upon our shoulders, let us remember that God Himself will· be "OUr strength and provider of wisdom as we lean on Him and Jet His Word shape who we are. · Since there isn't a sign on each opportunity presente~ by the world to our children saying, "You Must Be This, Tall To Ride This Ride," the only "signs" our kids have to help them are their par-: ents. Let us then be the best, mostly Godly pare~ts that we can be. After all, the world "is a 'very dangerous thing for someone who isn't ready for it." .

Advance directives are simple, legal docul)lents that will do just that, but only if you take the time to create them before you need them. "You buy insurance to prepare for moments you hope will never happen. Doing so helps make sure you are financially prepared. Advance directives offer the same peace of mind," said Barbara E. unable to make medical decisions for yourself. A durable power of attorney is generally more useful than a living will, but only if you have someone you trust to make these decisions for you.

A Do-Not-Resuscitate order allows a person to refuse, in advance, any effort to resuscitate· in the event of a cardiac or respiratory arrest. Without such an order, health care providers are obligated to take all measures possible to save you. "People think advance ·directives are only for those who are seriously or terminally ill," said Riley. "However, even if you are Riley, Director of the Ohio Department of Aging. "A simple form communicates your wishes to family, friends and health care professionals if you can't speak for yourself." A living will describes the types of medical treatments you would or would not want if you were seriously or terminally ill. You can accept or refuse medical care. including the use of dialysis and breathing machines, re·suscitation if breathing or heartbeat stops, tube feedin!l and organ or tissue donation. A durable power of attorney names someone to make health care decisions for you and becomes active any time you are unconscious or l in good health, an accident or serious illness can happen suddenly.

The new concept is part of A plan that began with the \Jte$islature giving Stnckland .the power to appoint the chancellor, who previously was appointed by the Board of Regents. The Legislature and Strickland also froze tuition and public colleges for the next two years and found an extra $150 million for higher education programs. The state ·also must do more to market its higher education assets, Strickland and Fingerhut said. Public colleges are losing prospective Ohio students to private colleges and schools in other states in part because those schools do a better job of telling their stories, they said. Instead of Ohio colleges comparing themselves to each other, they ~hould be sizing up similar institutions outside the state, Fingerhut said. "They (Ohio students) don 't know what we have to offer in our system," Fingerhut said. The 10-year-plan will provide major shifts that reflect developing technology and make better use of existing resources, Fingerhut said. The plan will be implemented with an eye on affotdability and quahty, he said. He did not want to discuss what he wants specifically, saying that would color the discussion.s with the presidents before they started.

Zimmerman had three hits, drove in three runs ant;f, on defense, made a slick backhanded stab while down on a knee to grab Jeff Conine's high hopper to third base leading · off the seventh inning. Washington has scored fewer runs than any other club in the majors 1 but Ronnie Belliard doubled twice and scored three runs, and Dmitri Young added two RBI singles to back a strong outing from Mike Bacsik (5-6). The left-bander allowed homers to Adam Dunn and Alex Gonzalez, plus a single, in a three-run third but otherwise did not allow a hit in his seven innings of work. Indeed, take out that troublesome third, and Bacsik faced the minimum 18 batters over his other six innings. ·The only other batter who reached base against the lefty was Ryan Freel, hit by a pitch in the sixth, then erased when Brandon Phillips grounded into a double play. Bacsik didn't walk a batter and struck out six en route to winning his third consecutive decision . He was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the seventh, departing after only 81 pitches, 51 strikes. Jon Rauch threw a hitless eighth, and Saul Rivera pitched the ninth. Dumatrait (0-1) left after 82 pitches - and those wc;ren 't enough to get him out of the fourth inning of · his big league debut. The 26-year-old left-bander was brought up from Triple-A Louisville before the game to help fill in a shuffied Reds rotation. His first pitch in the majors was a 93 mph fastball that ticked off the top of catcher David Ross' glove and headed to the backstop. His second pitch?

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - Randy Moss missed both practices on Thursday, one day after the New England Patriots receiver appeared to injure his left leg during a passing drill.

Zimmerman had three hits, drove in three runs ant;f, on defense, made a slick backhanded stab while down on a knee to grab Jeff Conine's high hopper to third base leading · off the seventh inning. Washington has scored fewer runs than any other club in the majors 1 but Ronnie Belliard doubled twice and scored three runs, and Dmitri Young added two RBI singles to back a strong outing from Mike Bacsik (5-6). The left-bander allowed homers to Adam Dunn and Alex Gonzalez, plus a single, in a three-run third but otherwise did not allow a hit in his seven innings of work. Indeed, take out that troublesome third, and Bacsik faced the minimum 18 batters over his other six innings. ·The only other batter who reached base against the lefty was Ryan Freel, hit by a pitch in the sixth, then erased when Brandon Phillips grounded into a double play. Bacsik didn't walk a batter and struck out six en route to winning his third consecutive decision . He was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the seventh, departing after only 81 pitches, 51 strikes. Jon Rauch threw a hitless eighth, and Saul Rivera pitched the ninth. Dumatrait (0-1) left after 82 pitches - and those wc;ren 't enough to get him out of the fourth inning of · his big league debut. The 26-year-old left-bander was brought up from Triple-A Louisville before the game to help fill in a shuffied Reds rotation. His first pitch in the majors was a 93 mph fastball that ticked off the top of catcher David Ross' glove and headed to the backstop. His second pitch?

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - Randy Moss missed both practices on Thursday, one day after the New England Patriots receiver appeared to injure his left leg during a passing drill. Moss, acquired from Oakland in a trade during the draft, pulled up midway through Wednesday's practice. Trainers applied ice to his upper left leg, and he later left the field uricter his own power. "Randy 's good," coach Bill Belichick said Thursday. "Day to day." · Asked about a timetable for Mdss' return, Belichick said, "My crystal ball's no clearer than yours." The 30-year-old w.ideout is attempting to get hi s career b~tck on track after a disappointing two-year stay in Oakland. He had been a standout in Patriots training camp, catching nearly every pass thrown h1 s way, and he has ' been consistently cheered by Patriots fan s. "I think they understand that he's here because he wants to win," Patriots owner Robert Kraft said of Moss, who accepted a oneyear contract at a reduced salary to play for New England. He was. injured while running under a deep ball thrown by Tom Brady. The two had connected on similar plays throughout camp.

CLEVELAND - Jake Westbrook figured he'd get his second win sooner or later. The Cleveland Indians were beginning to wonder when they'd get their next one. Westbrook e'nded the longest winless stretch of his career just in time for the sputtenng lndtans, who stopped a season-hi~h. fourgame losing skid wtth a 5-0 victory over the Texas Rangers on Thursday. Westbrook (2-6) ptcked UP. his first victory since Apnl 27 - a s~an of nine starts by aJiowwg five hits in six innings . The right-hander, who signed a $33 milli.on, three-year contract extension in April, spent nearly six weeks on the disabled list with a strained side muscle. "That's the way I expect myself to pitch," Westbrook said. "I felt strong in my previous starts, but things just didn't work out." Grady Sizemore celebrated his 25th birthday by driving in two runs against Kason Gabbard (4-1) and 40-year-old Kenny Lofton beat out an infield RBI single for Cleveland, which went just 3-7 on a 10-game homestand. Fortunately for the Indians, their slide coincided with one by the first-place Detroit. The Tigers, who lead Cleveland by one-half game in the AL Central , have dropped I0 of 14. "It's better that it happened at this time and not late in September," Lofton said. Cleveland's Normally center fielder, Sizemore made his second career start at designated hitter. And as usual, he was at the center of the action. "He stepped up," Indians manager .Eric Wedge said. "Maybe he felt like he had to do a little more because he wasn't in center." Victor Martinez homered for the Indians, who open a four-game series Friday night at Minnesota. The Twins' game on Thursday against Kansas City was postponed after the collapse of the eight-lane Interstate 35W bridge, a major Minneapolis artery located near the Metrodome. The 1\vins said Thursday that the series against the Indians would be played. "The last I was told, everything was moving forward as planned," Wedge said. "It's a horrific scene up there and our thoughts and prayers are with everybody m Minneapolis." Rafael Perez worked two innings, and Edward Mujica finished the combined seven-hitter for the Indians, who have dropped their last five series at Jacobs Field. "We need wins right now," AP photo Cleveland Indians' Jake Westorook pitches to Texas Rangers' ian Kinsler In the first inning of a t>aset>all game Thursday In Cleveland. Casey Blake said. Gabbard was facing the Indians for the second time in a week, this time for a different team. The left-bander was acquired on Tuesday from Boston in the deaJ that sent closer Eric Gagne to the; Red so·x. "I treated it like any other start," Gabbard said. ''The only thing that was different was I had a different name on my uniform." Sizemore's RBI single gave the Indians a 1-0 lead in the third. Gabbard waJked Franklin Gutierrez leading off . and Josh Barfield sacrificed. A wild pitch - one of three by Gabbard - sent Gutierrez to third and he scored when Sizemore spanked a single through Texas' drawn-in infield. The Indians gave Westbrook a 2-0 lead in the fifth on Sizemore's sacrifice fly. Lofton's speed hetr.ed the Indians, who haven t been scoring much lately, make it 3-0 in the sixth. Martinez was hit a by a pitch leading off and took second when Gabbard' s pitch skipped away from catcher Adam Melhuse . Martinez was held at third on Ryan Garko 's single, and was on his way to being left there when Gabbard got two outs. Lofton, though, chopped a ball to short and baretr beat former teammate Mtchael Yqung 's throw to score Martinez. Lofton was dealt to the Indians last week, one of many moves by the Rangers before the trading deadline. "Kenny is Kenny," Ran gers manager Ron Washington said. "He knows how to play. He takes care of himself. That's why he's still here at the age of 40." Blake's sacrifice fly made it 4-0 in the seventh, and Martinez followed with bi s· 18th homer, snapping a 2for-32 slump. Westbrook, who has had a tendency to have one bad inning every time out, wriggled out of a jam in the first by getting Jason Botts to foul out and striking out .

China, which has long been criticized for its human rights record, has cracked down on dissent to stave off potential political instability, the human rights group said. "The government seems afraid !hat its own citizens will embarrass it by speaking out about political and social problems, but China's leaders apparently don't realize authoritarian crackdowns are even more embarrassing," Brad Adams, the Asia director of New York-based Human Rights Watch , said in a statement. The Beijing Olympics, which begin Aug. 8, 2008, are a huge source of pride for China. In bidding for the games back in 200 I, Chinese leaders promised International Olympic Committee members that the Olympics would lead to an improved climate for human rights and media ·freedoms. Instead, there has been "gagging of dissidents, a crackdown on activists and attempts to block independent media coverage," Adams said .. The Chinese Foreign Ministry had no immediate comment on the Human Rights Watch statement In the past, China has said it was fulfilling all the commitments made in it 's bid for the games. The IOC said it believed the Olympics have had a positive effect China. "While some may question China's ability to meet it's obligations related to the Beijing Games, we think it is premature to state that China has failed to live up to it's pledges," IOC spokeswoman Giselle Davis said. Human Rights Watch sighted several examples of activists who have been obstructed, including a husband-and-wife couple, Hu Jia and Zeng Jinyan, who have been under constant surveillance and trav· el restrictions since May for allegedly · "harming state security:" Others include Jingo Yanking, a military surgeon who broke govern- ....., "~· · ".~' f ·· It RPtM~rt • .

The second Busch Series regular to win this season was Aric Almirola, but Almirola was only credited with the victory because he began the race be· hind the wheel. Most of that race, at Milwaukee on June 23, saw Denny Hamlin behind the wheel of the win· ning car. Stephen Leicht also won a race this year._ Leffler is from Long Beach, Calif., but he raced e;rtensively in the Midwest while driving USAC open-wheel cars. "It's pretty cool to come here and win a Busch race because I've won quite a few midget and Silver Crown races here at ORP," said the 31-yearold. "I've always considered Indi· anapolis to be my second home. I've spent a lot of time here, and I have a lot of friends here. I just can't say enough about our whole team at Braun Racing and what it means to us to get Toyota its first win in the Busch series. It's pretty awesome ... " Leffler had, in fact, competed in a Silver Crown race at the track two nights earlier. ''That race gave me a lot of good in' formation about what the car was going to do," he said. "This is a tricky track," added Lef· fler, "and for a short track, it's really one of the most difficult tracks to get around. You either hit the setup or you don't. There's progressive banking and transitions all the way around, which ma~es your car do different things, but we had the right setup, and we had the best crew to get the win. I just needed to reach back into my memory bank and remember what this track does during the course of a race." Leffler is a veteran of 62 Cup races, ()ut he hasn't raced in NASCAR's top series since 2005. His best Cup finish was a lOth at Homestead-Miami Speedway in 2001. It was his second Busch Series victory, the first having occurred at Nashville Superspeedway in 2004. "It's been a while, but it feels great to get back to victory lane," he said. "We just had a lot of bad luck early in the season, but we had the speed . Knowing that we had the speed is re· ally what kept everybody going." Want to read more from Monte Dutton?

CLEVELAND - Jake Westbrook figured he'd get his second win sooner or later. The Cleveland Indians were beginning to wonder when they'd get their next one. Westbrook e'nded the longest winless stretch of his career just in time for the sputtenng lndtans, who stopped a season-hi~h. fourgame losing skid wtth a 5-0 victory over the Texas Rangers on Thursday. Westbrook (2-6) ptcked UP. his first victory since Apnl 27 - a s~an of nine starts by aJiowwg five hits in six innings . The right-hander, who signed a $33 milli.on, three-year contract extension in April, spent nearly six weeks on the disabled list with a strained side muscle. "That's the way I expect myself to pitch," Westbrook said. "I felt strong in my previous starts, but things just didn't work out." Grady Sizemore celebrated his 25th birthday by driving in two runs against Kason Gabbard (4-1) and 40-year-old Kenny Lofton beat out an infield RBI single for Cleveland, which went just 3-7 on a 10-game homestand. Fortunately for the Indians, their slide coincided with one by the first-place Detroit. The Tigers, who lead Cleveland by one-half game in the AL Central , have dropped I0 of 14. "It's better that it happened at this time and not late in September," Lofton said. Cleveland's Normally center fielder, Sizemore made his second career start at designated hitter. And as usual, he was at the center of the action. "He stepped up," Indians manager .Eric Wedge said. "Maybe he felt like he had to do a little more because he wasn't in center." Victor Martinez homered for the Indians, who open a four-game series Friday night at Minnesota. The Twins' game on Thursday against Kansas City was postponed after the collapse of the eight-lane Interstate 35W bridge, a major Minneapolis artery located near the Metrodome. The 1\vins said Thursday that the series against the Indians would be played. "The last I was told, everything was moving forward as planned," Wedge said. "It's a horrific scene up there and our thoughts and prayers are with everybody m Minneapolis." Rafael Perez worked two innings, and Edward Mujica finished the combined seven-hitter for the Indians, who have dropped their last five series at Jacobs Field. "We need wins right now," AP photo Cleveland Indians' Jake Westorook pitches to Texas Rangers' ian Kinsler In the first inning of a t>aset>all game Thursday In Cleveland. Casey Blake said. Gabbard was facing the Indians for the second time in a week, this time for a different team. The left-bander was acquired on Tuesday from Boston in the deaJ that sent closer Eric Gagne to the; Red so·x. "I treated it like any other start," Gabbard said. ''The only thing that was different was I had a different name on my uniform." Sizemore's RBI single gave the Indians a 1-0 lead in the third. Gabbard waJked Franklin Gutierrez leading off . and Josh Barfield sacrificed. A wild pitch - one of three by Gabbard - sent Gutierrez to third and he scored when Sizemore spanked a single through Texas' drawn-in infield. The Indians gave Westbrook a 2-0 lead in the fifth on Sizemore's sacrifice fly. Lofton's speed hetr.ed the Indians, who haven t been scoring much lately, make it 3-0 in the sixth. Martinez was hit a by a pitch leading off and took second when Gabbard' s pitch skipped away from catcher Adam Melhuse . Martinez was held at third on Ryan Garko 's single, and was on his way to being left there when Gabbard got two outs. Lofton, though, chopped a ball to short and baretr beat former teammate Mtchael Yqung 's throw to score Martinez. Lofton was dealt to the Indians last week, one of many moves by the Rangers before the trading deadline. "Kenny is Kenny," Ran gers manager Ron Washington said. "He knows how to play. He takes care of himself. That's why he's still here at the age of 40." Blake's sacrifice fly made it 4-0 in the seventh, and Martinez followed with bi s· 18th homer, snapping a 2for-32 slump. Westbrook, who has had a tendency to have one bad inning every time out, wriggled out of a jam in the first by getting Jason Botts to foul out and striking out .

China, which has long been criticized for its human rights record, has cracked down on dissent to stave off potential political instability, the human rights group said. "The government seems afraid !hat its own citizens will embarrass it by speaking out about political and social problems, but China's leaders apparently don't realize authoritarian crackdowns are even more embarrassing," Brad Adams, the Asia director of New York-based Human Rights Watch , said in a statement. The Beijing Olympics, which begin Aug. 8, 2008, are a huge source of pride for China. In bidding for the games back in 200 I, Chinese leaders promised International Olympic Committee members that the Olympics would lead to an improved climate for human rights and media ·freedoms. Instead, there has been "gagging of dissidents, a crackdown on activists and attempts to block independent media coverage," Adams said .. The Chinese Foreign Ministry had no immediate comment on the Human Rights Watch statement In the past, China has said it was fulfilling all the commitments made in it 's bid for the games. The IOC said it believed the Olympics have had a positive effect China. "While some may question China's ability to meet it's obligations related to the Beijing Games, we think it is premature to state that China has failed to live up to it's pledges," IOC spokeswoman Giselle Davis said. Human Rights Watch sighted several examples of activists who have been obstructed, including a husband-and-wife couple, Hu Jia and Zeng Jinyan, who have been under constant surveillance and trav· el restrictions since May for allegedly · "harming state security:" Others include Jingo Yanking, a military surgeon who broke govern- ....., "~· · ".~' f ·· It RPtM~rt • .

The second Busch Series regular to win this season was Aric Almirola, but Almirola was only credited with the victory because he began the race be· hind the wheel. Most of that race, at Milwaukee on June 23, saw Denny Hamlin behind the wheel of the win· ning car. Stephen Leicht also won a race this year._ Leffler is from Long Beach, Calif., but he raced e;rtensively in the Midwest while driving USAC open-wheel cars. "It's pretty cool to come here and win a Busch race because I've won quite a few midget and Silver Crown races here at ORP," said the 31-yearold. "I've always considered Indi· anapolis to be my second home. I've spent a lot of time here, and I have a lot of friends here. I just can't say enough about our whole team at Braun Racing and what it means to us to get Toyota its first win in the Busch series. It's pretty awesome ... " Leffler had, in fact, competed in a Silver Crown race at the track two nights earlier. ''That race gave me a lot of good in' formation about what the car was going to do," he said. "This is a tricky track," added Lef· fler, "and for a short track, it's really one of the most difficult tracks to get around. You either hit the setup or you don't. There's progressive banking and transitions all the way around, which ma~es your car do different things, but we had the right setup, and we had the best crew to get the win. I just needed to reach back into my memory bank and remember what this track does during the course of a race." Leffler is a veteran of 62 Cup races, ()ut he hasn't raced in NASCAR's top series since 2005. His best Cup finish was a lOth at Homestead-Miami Speedway in 2001. It was his second Busch Series victory, the first having occurred at Nashville Superspeedway in 2004. "It's been a while, but it feels great to get back to victory lane," he said. "We just had a lot of bad luck early in the season, but we had the speed . Knowing that we had the speed is re· ally what kept everybody going." Want to read more from Monte Dutton?

What did that mean in terms of his chances in the NASCAR race? Not as much, obviously, as qualifying on the front row . "There's lots I remember from the Indy 500," he said. "I want to see what workS and what doesn't. For me, it's eKcit· ing to be here and be able to compete in all three races."

'I ' I' 'I 'i . H \ ' Except for the occasional holding penalty that negates a big play, offensive linemen are the anonymous creatures on NFL teams. That makes Bruce Matthews' immediate election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame somewhat remarkable. It can take years, even decades, for blockers to get noticed by the Hall voters. Not Matthews, whose versatility and reliability for 19 seastlns made him an easy choice in.his first year of eligibility. On Saturday, the outstanding guard-tackie-center for the Houston Oilers and Tennessee Titans will join Thurman Thomas, Michael Irvin, Roger Wehrli, Charlie Sanders and Gene Hickerson in football 's shrine. Matthews is the only inductee to make it on his first try this year. "If you would've told me then that one day I'd play in the NFL and one day I'd make the Hall of Fame, I would've said you've got to be kidding," Matthews said. And if you'd told Matthews - or anyone else - that he would play every offensive line position, well, that would have seemed absurd. Yet Matthews did so, and excelled at all of them. In his 296 games, more than any full-time positional player in league history Moss fromPageBl I. his first season in Denver after spending the last two years in Washington. Vlkl~ Rookie runnmg back Adrian Peterson left practice with an injury after taking an elbow to his hip while catchinll a pass in a drill. He said 11 wasn't serious, calling the injury a minor hip pointer. Peterson missed the first five practices of training I I when he retired, Matthews spent 99 at left guard, 87 at center, 67 at right guard, 22 at right tackle and 17 at left tackle . · Nothing he did , including the skills and leadership he brought to the field, surpassed that unheard-of versatility. That's what most impresses Jeff Fisher, Matthews' te·ammate at Southern Cal and his coach for Matthews' final seven NFL seasons. "More incredible in our business is the starts he had at each different position on the offensive line. That's incredible and to play at such a high level for so many years," Fisher said. So while Irvin "the playmaker, " and Thomas, the onetime MVP, get much of the airtime, the heaviest accolades go to Matthews. "A lot of guys can't move ' ; around because mentally it's hard, especially to go from center to tackle," said for· AP photo mer Matthews teammate Bruce Matthews, qf the Oilers and Titans, talks about his Mike Munchak, himself a enshrinement in the class of 2007 of the National Football Canton inductee.

He was a three-time All-Pro who made 30 or more receptions in a season seven times and had more than 500 yards receiving in six seasons in an era when quarterbacks rarely threw to tight ends. " He was one of the best that we ever faced ," said Bears linebacker . Dick Butkus, himself a Hall of Fame member. "He was big and had good speed and was a tough guy. He could make ·some great catches." So could Irvin, ·who is the second member of Dallas· vaunted " Triplets" on offense to make the Hall , along with QB Troy Aikman. Running back Emmitt . Smith, the NFL's career rushing leader, will be a slam-dunk when he becomes eligible. • Irvin was the top receiver on three Super Bowl champions, and he made the league's All-J990s team. As a rookie in 1988, he led the league with a 20.4-yard per catch average, and he had II 100-yard receiving games in 1995, , setting an NFL record. Irv.in had several off-field . problems during his career and was voted into the Hall in his third year of eligibility. " Mistakes will cost you. That's the reality," Irvin said. "You/ have to pay the price for your mistakes, but, also, don't give up. Keep going and try to overcome that. that's the reality, too. I like that it worked out the way it worked out." Thomas was the 1991 league MVP and, like Matthews, was known for his versatility. A sup~rb run. ner with dartmg qutckness and surprising power, he also wa~ a terrific receiver. He helped Buffalo win four straight AFC titles, but no Super Bowl crowns. "People can say what they want to say," Thoma~ said. " We put Buffalo on the map. Whether you want to label us as losers or winners or what have you, there have been a Lot of other teams that have never been to the Super Bowl." · One of only three Hall of Fame running backs, with Walter Payton and Marcus Allen, to have more than 400 recep,tions and 10,000 yards rushing , Thomas also set playoff records for career points (126), touch· downs (21), and consecutive games wi,th a TD (nine). Wehrli was one of the game's first shutdown cornerbacks and was a starter from his rookie season in 1969 through 1982 for the St. Louis Cardinals.

'I ' I' 'I 'i . H \ ' Except for the occasional holding penalty that negates a big play, offensive linemen are the anonymous creatures on NFL teams. That makes Bruce Matthews' immediate election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame somewhat remarkable. It can take years, even decades, for blockers to get noticed by the Hall voters. Not Matthews, whose versatility and reliability for 19 seastlns made him an easy choice in.his first year of eligibility. On Saturday, the outstanding guard-tackie-center for the Houston Oilers and Tennessee Titans will join Thurman Thomas, Michael Irvin, Roger Wehrli, Charlie Sanders and Gene Hickerson in football 's shrine. Matthews is the only inductee to make it on his first try this year. "If you would've told me then that one day I'd play in the NFL and one day I'd make the Hall of Fame, I would've said you've got to be kidding," Matthews said. And if you'd told Matthews - or anyone else - that he would play every offensive line position, well, that would have seemed absurd. Yet Matthews did so, and excelled at all of them. In his 296 games, more than any full-time positional player in league history Moss fromPageBl I. his first season in Denver after spending the last two years in Washington. Vlkl~ Rookie runnmg back Adrian Peterson left practice with an injury after taking an elbow to his hip while catchinll a pass in a drill. He said 11 wasn't serious, calling the injury a minor hip pointer. Peterson missed the first five practices of training I I when he retired, Matthews spent 99 at left guard, 87 at center, 67 at right guard, 22 at right tackle and 17 at left tackle . · Nothing he did , including the skills and leadership he brought to the field, surpassed that unheard-of versatility. That's what most impresses Jeff Fisher, Matthews' te·ammate at Southern Cal and his coach for Matthews' final seven NFL seasons. "More incredible in our business is the starts he had at each different position on the offensive line. That's incredible and to play at such a high level for so many years," Fisher said. So while Irvin "the playmaker, " and Thomas, the onetime MVP, get much of the airtime, the heaviest accolades go to Matthews. "A lot of guys can't move ' ; around because mentally it's hard, especially to go from center to tackle," said for· AP photo mer Matthews teammate Bruce Matthews, qf the Oilers and Titans, talks about his Mike Munchak, himself a enshrinement in the class of 2007 of the National Football Canton inductee.

He was back on the field in full uniform and taking part in drills. Owens sat out both workouts Wednesday, a day after coach Wade Phillips had the receiver take it easy to rest a sore hamstring.

He was a three-time All-Pro who made 30 or more receptions in a season seven times and had more than 500 yards receiving in six seasons in an era when quarterbacks rarely threw to tight ends. " He was one of the best that we ever faced ," said Bears linebacker . Dick Butkus, himself a Hall of Fame member. "He was big and had good speed and was a tough guy. He could make ·some great catches." So could Irvin, ·who is the second member of Dallas· vaunted " Triplets" on offense to make the Hall , along with QB Troy Aikman. Running back Emmitt . Smith, the NFL's career rushing leader, will be a slam-dunk when he becomes eligible. • Irvin was the top receiver on three Super Bowl champions, and he made the league's All-J990s team. As a rookie in 1988, he led the league with a 20.4-yard per catch average, and he had II 100-yard receiving games in 1995, , setting an NFL record. Irv.in had several off-field . problems during his career and was voted into the Hall in his third year of eligibility. " Mistakes will cost you. That's the reality," Irvin said. "You/ have to pay the price for your mistakes, but, also, don't give up. Keep going and try to overcome that. that's the reality, too. I like that it worked out the way it worked out." Thomas was the 1991 league MVP and, like Matthews, was known for his versatility. A sup~rb run. ner with dartmg qutckness and surprising power, he also wa~ a terrific receiver. He helped Buffalo win four straight AFC titles, but no Super Bowl crowns. "People can say what they want to say," Thoma~ said. " We put Buffalo on the map. Whether you want to label us as losers or winners or what have you, there have been a Lot of other teams that have never been to the Super Bowl." · One of only three Hall of Fame running backs, with Walter Payton and Marcus Allen, to have more than 400 recep,tions and 10,000 yards rushing , Thomas also set playoff records for career points (126), touch· downs (21), and consecutive games wi,th a TD (nine). Wehrli was one of the game's first shutdown cornerbacks and was a starter from his rookie season in 1969 through 1982 for the St. Louis Cardinals. He was elected . in his final year of eligibility, eveit though he was a five-time All-Pro. "He was overdue, I'll tell you that," said Don Coryell, who coached those ''Cardiac Cards."

ALONG THE RivER ? I AKRON (AP) - Andres Romero didn' t wilt. In fact, he more than held his own with the .No. I golfer in the world. Romero was worried he might be too nervous when paired with Tiger Woods for the flfSt time Thursday in the opening round of the Bridgestone Invitational. "I never shook hands wi1h him before," Romero said throu~ an interpreter after shooting a l-over 71, three shots .llehind Woods. "In Dubai this year I stayed, like, one hour and ·a half watching him on the driving range. Then the other day I saw him in the hotel, and we said hi." Romero grinned at the thought - a 26-year-old from Argentina who learned the ¥arne from an uncle, meetmg the best player on the planet and then playing round with him. The past few weeks have been a blur for Romero. In the final round of the British Open three weeks ago, he torched Camoustie for I0 birdies in 16 holes to take the lead with two holes loft. Finishing with a. double bogey '• and a bogey, he missed the playoff by a s~roke.. A V;ee1c later, Romero wori the Deutsche Bank Players Championship ofr Europe, climbing to No. 29 in the world rankings and earning a spot in the elite field for the Bridgestone. "I was impressed," Woods said of Romero. "He hit the ball awfully long. He's longer with 1rons than I am and probably slightly longer with the driver.
