Steady showers began about 45 minutes before the scheduled start time of I :35 p.m. and continued through the official announcement of the postponement at about 2:45. The game will be made up as pan of a doubleheader Aug. 28. Sunday was the third postponement due to rain for the Pirates at home this season, plus a suspended game May 1 that was finished the following afternoon. The first two were April I 4-15 (lgainst the Giants, which made necessary an Aug. 13 doubleheader. The Red~ had taken the first two games of the weekend series. Scheduled Pirates starter Tom Gorzelanny has not pitched since leaving his start July 25 in New York in the third inning complaining of left shoulder stiffness. The rain out, combined with a scheduled off day Monday, means he will have an extra 48 hours to rest. The Reds were ·in a simiJar situation with right-hander Aaron Harang, who has not started since July 28 and left after one inning due to a sore lower back. He was scheduled to stan Thursday against Los Angeles, but Reds manager Pete Mackanin said he might be pushed back to Wednesday. The team was to evaluate the situation durin~ its plane ride back to Cincmnau and would make an announcement about the rotation on Monday. Bronson Arroyo was supposed to start Sunday, but the Reds indicated he might be moved to Wednesday to allow Harang to continue his pattern of preparation and start Tuesday. Pitchers aren't the only ones who will likely benefit from the extra time off. Pirates outfielder Xavier Nady was not in the lineup again Sunday - the fifth consecutive game he did not stan due to a strained left hamstring. Reds outfielder Ryan Freel left Thursday's game in Washington with a sore right .knee and is officially listed as day-to-dar. Mackanin said that if Freel s . condition does not improve in the next 24 hours, a second trip to the disabled list for him this season is possible. Freel's injury _was one of the reasons Jeff Keppinger was pOised to make his first career start in the outfield.

CAVE-IN WAS MISTAKEN FOR MINOR EAR'IHQUAKE BY PAUL FOY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER HUNTINGTON, UtahHundreds of rescuers broke through - walls of rock Monday in a desperate race to reach six coal miners trapped I ,500 feet below ground by a cave-in so powerful authorities initially thought it was an earthquake. · Hours after the collapse, which did not appear related to an explosion, searchers had been unable to contact the miners and could not say whether they were dead or alive. If they survived, a mine executive said, they could have enough air and water to last several days. "We ' re going to get them," said Robert E. Murray, chairman of Murray Energy Corp. of Cleveland, a part owner of the Crandall Canyon mine. ' 'There is nothing on my mind right now except getting those miners out." The mining crew was believed to be about four miles from the mine entrance. Rescuers were working to free the men by drilling into the mine vertically from the mountaintop and horizontally from the side, Murray satd. Officials estimated that drilling vertically could take three days. If they are able to open an old mine shaft, Murray said, rescuers believe they can get within 100 feet of where the men are trapped. "The idea is to get a hole into where they are," Murray said. "They could be in a chamber I ,000 feet long or they could be dead. We just don't know right ·now.

The mine uses a method around the state. The mine is built into a called "retreat · mining," in which pillars of coal are mountain in the rugged used to hold up an area of Manti-La Sal National the mine's roof.

By mid-afternoon, resand grabs the useful coal, causing an intentional col- cuers were within I, 700 feet of the miners presumed location , Murray said. It was not known what kind of breathing equipment the miners had. University of Utah seismograph stations recorded seismic waves of 3.9 magnitude around early Monday in the area of the mine, causing speculation that a minor earthquake had caused the .cave-in. Scientists later realized the collapse at the mine had caused the disturbance, reported to authorities around 4 a.m. But by late afternoon, they said a natural eart)lquake caul~ not be ruled out and more mformation was needed to conclusively determine what hap· pened . Murray said the earth· quake's epicenter was a sidered significant. Last month, inspectors cited the mine for vtolating a rule requiring that at least two separate passageways be designated for escape in an emergency. It was the third time in less than two years that the mine had been cited for the same problem, according to MSHA record s. In 2005 , ·MSHA ordered the mine owners to pay $963 for not having escapeways and the 2006 fine for the same problem was just $60. Overall, the federal government has ordered the mine . owner to pay nearly $152,000 in penalties for its 325 violations with many citations having no fines calculated yet. Since January, the mine owner has paid $130,678 in fines, MSHA according . to records. Asked abeut safety, Murray told reporters: "I believe we run a very safe coal mine. We've had an excellent record." Gov. Jon Huntsman broke away from a wildfire forum in Boise, Idaho, to return to Utah. "We're going to expend · every resource we have and make every effort to make sure lives are put first and foremost," he said as he departed Boise. The head of MSHA, Richard Stickler, said he would be at the site Tuesday. Utah ranked 12th in coal production in 2006.

"The whole problem has been caused by an earthquake," Murray angrily insisted. Since the mid-1990s, at least a half-dozen other mine collapses have caused similar seismic waves, including a 1995 cave-in in southwestern Wyoming that caused readings as high as a magnitude 5.4. Murray believed the miners have plenty of air because oxygen naturally leaks into the mine. The mine also is stocked with drinking water. "I'm so hopeful for those guys. They should have lots of oxygen to breathe," said Mary Ann Wright, associate director for mining in the · Utah Division of Oil, Gas .and Mining. "From not having heard · that there's any type of fire, that's always good news. If they're trapped in a cavern area, there should be oxygen to breathe," Wright said. Government mine inspectors have issued . 325 citalions against the mine since January 2004, according to a quick analysis of federal Mine Safety and Health AdministratiOn online records. Of those, 116 were what the ~ovemment considered 'significant and substantial," meaning they are likely to cause injury. The 325 safety violations is not unusual, said J.

State officials have an ambitious schedule to"award contracts to replace the bridge next month, even as search crews remained stymied in their efforts to recover at least eight missing victims from the depths· of the Mississippi River. Five people are confirmed dead. A brutal winter could throw the state's rapid reconstruction schedule off. But other conditions are favorable - including a construction industry with plenty of available resources to take on such a daunting challenge. "It is doable. It is a bit fast, but this is an emergency," said Khaled Mahmoud with the Bridge Engineering Association in New York. "And if we are ever good at anything, it's responding to emergencies." It took only seconds Wednesday night for the eight-lane, 1,900-foot steel truss Interstate 35W bridge, which opened in 1967, to collapse. Three days later, the state had already begun looking for companies interested in erectmg a new bridge in just 16 months. Erecting a new bridge like Minneapolis' would ordinarily take about three years, even if the design and building phases were overlapped to save timey said Bill Cox, owner of Corman Construction Inc. in Annapolis Junction, Md., a road and bridge construction firm. Teams of designers and builders are racing to meet the first hurdle, showing they are qualified to bid, said Dick Stehly of American Engineering Tesiing of St. Paul, which is seeking a role in soil engineering and quality control. "This is going to be stateof-the-art type of building, which is raptd but also very, very safe and sound," he said. The goal of awarding contracts in mid-September is highly ambitious given the array of questions to be answered, including whether to mimic the former bridge's alignment, how much traffic to accommodate, how much' to spend and what it will look like. "We have committed ourselves to getting it done quickly, but we have also committed ourselves to nol ~etting it done in a way that it IS obsolete the day il opens." Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak said. As suppliers are being asked to free up steel, rebar and other key components. state transportation officials warn other projects may languish if a new bridge is !O be standing by the eni:l of 2008. "With an accelerated construction project, you're going to pay for the acceleration," said Jon Chiglo, bridge reconstruction project manager for the state Department of Transportation. 'There's definitely impacts to the rest of the systeln in the area. It's important to us to get the bridge back in service." The new bridge 's design will largely determine the cost, and although the federal government has pledged $250 million, Mahmoud said $300 million to $ ~ 50 million "sounds about rigpt.' ' President Bush on Monday signed legislation that uirects $250 million to rebuild the bridge. The legislation, passed by Congress over the weekend, wai ves the S I00 million federal limit per state for emergency relief fund s. authori zing $250 million for rebuilding the bridge. The money itself still neeus to be appropriated by Congres~ in future legislation. Fedem! money for emergency reconstruction of the bridge is primarily meant for replacement of what was lost, along with some reasonable accommodation for ' increased traffic, said Bob McFarlin, spokesman for Minne.sota's transportation department. So if the state wants to include some upgrades like another exit for downtown, better access to the University · of Minnesota campus, and features (hat would make it a landmark showpiece - it may have to pay for them itself. Minnesota's brutal -winter weather will unquestionably pose a challenge to fast-track bridge bui lding, said Dave Semerad, spokesman fur Lhe Associated General Contractors of Minnesota in St. Paul. "There will be barges required for this construction, and a lot depends on the temperature." he said. "If the river freezes, then you 're not going to be able to have barges moving around." The stale intends to write financial incentives into the contract to make . the compressed schedule more likely 10 be met.

Police officers caught littering, parking in a prohibit: ed area, or arriving late among other misdemeanors - will be forced to stay in the division office and wear the armband all day, said Police Col. Pongpat Chayaphan. The officers won't wear the armband in public. The striking armband features Hello Kitty sitting atop two hearts. "Simple warnings no longer work. This new twist is expected to make them feel guilt and shame and prevent them from repeatmg the offense, no matter how minor," said Pongpat, acting chief of the Cnme Suppression Division in Bangkok. "(Hello) Kitty is a cute icon for young girls. It's not something macho police officers want covering their biceps," Pongpat said. He said police caught breaking the law will be subject the same fines and penalties as any other members of the public. "We · want to make sure that we do not condone small offenses," Pongpat said, adding that the CSD believed that getting tough on petty misdemeanors would lead to fewer cases of more serious offenses including abuse of power and mistreatment of the public by police officers. Hello Kitty, invented by Sanrio Co. in 1974, has been popular for years with children and young women.

CAVE-IN WAS MISTAKEN FOR MINOR EAR'IHQUAKE BY PAUL FOY ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER HUNTINGTON, UtahHundreds of rescuers broke through - walls of rock Monday in a desperate race to reach six coal miners trapped I ,500 feet below ground by a cave-in so powerful authorities initially thought it was an earthquake. · Hours after the collapse, which did not appear related to an explosion, searchers had been unable to contact the miners and could not say whether they were dead or alive. If they survived, a mine executive said, they could have enough air and water to last several days. "We ' re going to get them," said Robert E. Murray, chairman of Murray Energy Corp. of Cleveland, a part owner of the Crandall Canyon mine. ' 'There is nothing on my mind right now except getting those miners out." The mining crew was believed to be about four miles from the mine entrance. Rescuers were working to free the men by drilling into the mine vertically from the mountaintop and horizontally from the side, Murray satd. Officials estimated that drilling vertically could take three days. If they are able to open an old mine shaft, Murray said, rescuers believe they can get within 100 feet of where the men are trapped. "The idea is to get a hole into where they are," Murray said. "They could be in a chamber I ,000 feet long or they could be dead. We just don't know right ·now.

The mine uses a method around the state. The mine is built into a called "retreat · mining," in which pillars of coal are mountain in the rugged used to hold up an area of Manti-La Sal National the mine's roof.

By mid-afternoon, resand grabs the useful coal, causing an intentional col- cuers were within I, 700 feet of the miners presumed location , Murray said. It was not known what kind of breathing equipment the miners had. University of Utah seismograph stations recorded seismic waves of 3.9 magnitude around early Monday in the area of the mine, causing speculation that a minor earthquake had caused the .cave-in. Scientists later realized the collapse at the mine had caused the disturbance, reported to authorities around 4 a.m. But by late afternoon, they said a natural eart)lquake caul~ not be ruled out and more mformation was needed to conclusively determine what hap· pened . Murray said the earth· quake's epicenter was a sidered significant. Last month, inspectors cited the mine for vtolating a rule requiring that at least two separate passageways be designated for escape in an emergency. It was the third time in less than two years that the mine had been cited for the same problem, according to MSHA record s. In 2005 , ·MSHA ordered the mine owners to pay $963 for not having escapeways and the 2006 fine for the same problem was just $60. Overall, the federal government has ordered the mine . owner to pay nearly $152,000 in penalties for its 325 violations with many citations having no fines calculated yet. Since January, the mine owner has paid $130,678 in fines, MSHA according . to records. Asked abeut safety, Murray told reporters: "I believe we run a very safe coal mine. We've had an excellent record." Gov. Jon Huntsman broke away from a wildfire forum in Boise, Idaho, to return to Utah. "We're going to expend · every resource we have and make every effort to make sure lives are put first and foremost," he said as he departed Boise. The head of MSHA, Richard Stickler, said he would be at the site Tuesday. Utah ranked 12th in coal production in 2006.

"The whole problem has been caused by an earthquake," Murray angrily insisted. Since the mid-1990s, at least a half-dozen other mine collapses have caused similar seismic waves, including a 1995 cave-in in southwestern Wyoming that caused readings as high as a magnitude 5.4. Murray believed the miners have plenty of air because oxygen naturally leaks into the mine. The mine also is stocked with drinking water. "I'm so hopeful for those guys. They should have lots of oxygen to breathe," said Mary Ann Wright, associate director for mining in the · Utah Division of Oil, Gas .and Mining. "From not having heard · that there's any type of fire, that's always good news. If they're trapped in a cavern area, there should be oxygen to breathe," Wright said. Government mine inspectors have issued . 325 citalions against the mine since January 2004, according to a quick analysis of federal Mine Safety and Health AdministratiOn online records. Of those, 116 were what the ~ovemment considered 'significant and substantial," meaning they are likely to cause injury. The 325 safety violations is not unusual, said J.

State officials have an ambitious schedule to"award contracts to replace the bridge next month, even as search crews remained stymied in their efforts to recover at least eight missing victims from the depths· of the Mississippi River. Five people are confirmed dead. A brutal winter could throw the state's rapid reconstruction schedule off. But other conditions are favorable - including a construction industry with plenty of available resources to take on such a daunting challenge. "It is doable. It is a bit fast, but this is an emergency," said Khaled Mahmoud with the Bridge Engineering Association in New York. "And if we are ever good at anything, it's responding to emergencies." It took only seconds Wednesday night for the eight-lane, 1,900-foot steel truss Interstate 35W bridge, which opened in 1967, to collapse. Three days later, the state had already begun looking for companies interested in erectmg a new bridge in just 16 months. Erecting a new bridge like Minneapolis' would ordinarily take about three years, even if the design and building phases were overlapped to save timey said Bill Cox, owner of Corman Construction Inc. in Annapolis Junction, Md., a road and bridge construction firm. Teams of designers and builders are racing to meet the first hurdle, showing they are qualified to bid, said Dick Stehly of American Engineering Tesiing of St. Paul, which is seeking a role in soil engineering and quality control. "This is going to be stateof-the-art type of building, which is raptd but also very, very safe and sound," he said. The goal of awarding contracts in mid-September is highly ambitious given the array of questions to be answered, including whether to mimic the former bridge's alignment, how much traffic to accommodate, how much' to spend and what it will look like. "We have committed ourselves to getting it done quickly, but we have also committed ourselves to nol ~etting it done in a way that it IS obsolete the day il opens." Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak said. As suppliers are being asked to free up steel, rebar and other key components. state transportation officials warn other projects may languish if a new bridge is !O be standing by the eni:l of 2008. "With an accelerated construction project, you're going to pay for the acceleration," said Jon Chiglo, bridge reconstruction project manager for the state Department of Transportation. 'There's definitely impacts to the rest of the systeln in the area. It's important to us to get the bridge back in service." The new bridge 's design will largely determine the cost, and although the federal government has pledged $250 million, Mahmoud said $300 million to $ ~ 50 million "sounds about rigpt.' ' President Bush on Monday signed legislation that uirects $250 million to rebuild the bridge. The legislation, passed by Congress over the weekend, wai ves the S I00 million federal limit per state for emergency relief fund s. authori zing $250 million for rebuilding the bridge. The money itself still neeus to be appropriated by Congres~ in future legislation. Fedem! money for emergency reconstruction of the bridge is primarily meant for replacement of what was lost, along with some reasonable accommodation for ' increased traffic, said Bob McFarlin, spokesman for Minne.sota's transportation department. So if the state wants to include some upgrades like another exit for downtown, better access to the University · of Minnesota campus, and features (hat would make it a landmark showpiece - it may have to pay for them itself. Minnesota's brutal -winter weather will unquestionably pose a challenge to fast-track bridge bui lding, said Dave Semerad, spokesman fur Lhe Associated General Contractors of Minnesota in St. Paul. "There will be barges required for this construction, and a lot depends on the temperature." he said. "If the river freezes, then you 're not going to be able to have barges moving around."

Police officers caught littering, parking in a prohibit: ed area, or arriving late among other misdemeanors - will be forced to stay in the division office and wear the armband all day, said Police Col. Pongpat Chayaphan. The officers won't wear the armband in public. The striking armband features Hello Kitty sitting atop two hearts. "Simple warnings no longer work. This new twist is expected to make them feel guilt and shame and prevent them from repeatmg the offense, no matter how minor," said Pongpat, acting chief of the Cnme Suppression Division in Bangkok. "(Hello) Kitty is a cute icon for young girls. It's not something macho police officers want covering their biceps," Pongpat said. He said police caught breaking the law will be subject the same fines and penalties as any other members of the public. "We · want to make sure that we do not condone small offenses," Pongpat said, adding that the CSD believed that getting tough on petty misdemeanors would lead to fewer cases of more serious offenses including abuse of power and mistreatment of the public by police officers. Hello Kitty, invented by Sanrio Co. in 1974, has been popular for years with children and young women.

That intention recalls President John F. Kennedy's 1961 effort in Vienna to e.onvince Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev that capitalism was superior to communism, which resulted in a summit disaster, an intensifi.ed Cold War and, perhaps, the Cuban Missile Crisis. Obama and his advisers argue that President Ronald Reagan met with Mikhail Gorbachev despite calling the Soviet Union an '.'evil empire." But Reagan's first summit was in 1985, ~early five years after he took office and after he •had acquired the leverage of the Star Wars program and Pershing II missiles in Europe. Another flaw in Obama's inveterate Bush-basl)ing Clinton's, too- is that they' set themselves up to make a key Bush-like error. On taking office, Bush . rejected everything Clintonian including Bill Clinton's concern about terrorism - . leading to disastrous conse1 quences. Sen. Clinton, in an earlier debate, at least had the grace to say that America "is safer than it was before 9/11 , although not as safe as it should be." The good news m Obam:i's terrorism speech was that he actually shares Bush's sense of the menace presented by global terrorism. "Just because the president misrepresents our enemies does not mean that we don't have them," he said, and promised to "wage the war that has to be won." The most arresting item in the speech was his vow that "if we have actionable intelligence about .high-_value terrorist targets (in Pakistan) . anci ~resident (Pervez) Musharraf won't act, we will." That's bold, but also potentially destabilizi!}g for Pakistan. And why, by the same logic, would Obama not be willing to bomb factories in Iran that produce explosively formed projectiles used against U.S. troops in Iraq, or send commandos in to attack terrorist base camps in Syria? He might, but I doubt it Why? Because that would be in support .of the Iraq War, which Obama (and Clinton) want to get out of. Even though AI Qaeda's No. 2 leader, Ayman al- .

Ohio State anonymous tip line uncovers rule breakers COLUMBUS (AP) -Ohio State University has called its anonymous tip line a success, saying it has uncovered rule breakers in all comers of the university, from an employee who kept sexually explicit material on a university computer to employees suspected of stealing thousands of dollars. Since the tip line was started in March 2006, the university has investigated 19 tips that resulted in legal or administrative action again~! employees, said Bill Shkurti, senior vice president for business and finance. An additionall07 tips turned out to be unsubstantiated or were not m senous violation of school policy, he said. One anonymous tip led to the investigation of former OSU Treasurer Jim Nichols, who overstated the performance of the university's investment returns in financial reports and failed to follow school policy to quickly sell donated stock. The investigation found no evidence of fraud or misappropriation of funds. Nichols retired while on paid leave after the university's probe and the Ohio Ethics Commission has opened an investigation into other irregularities. Other calls led to the firing of a volunteer coach accused of giving alcohol to members of the women's rugby club and the prosecution of five parking-lot attendants accused of stealing parking receipts that might total thousands of dollars, said university Assistant Police Chief Rick Am we g. Professors' concerns that people would make false complaints have not surfaced, said Allan Silverman, immediate past chairman of the OSU Faculty CounciL The program costs $38,000 annually. OSU has contracted with EthicsPoint until February 2009 to collect telephone and e-mail tips and forward them to university officials for investigation. • Pool from Page A1 dance.

The most recent financial report does not indicate if additional bills are forthcoming. One concern of council has been that the general fund will be responsible for covering bills not paid through pool revenue. The recreation fund has a cash balance of $4,204, according to Baker's report. The fund balance was $12,000 when the pool opened, representing a carryover balance from last xear.

Gruttadauria said his plea agreement required that he remain in custody, not necessarily kept in prison, and he said staying at Oriana House as a federal prisoner with occasional approved leave was allowed. He alleged that it was only when the prosecutor's· office became aware of media interest over him being out in the community that they decided to arrest him. "They said, 'Let's march Frank out to the media. Let's blame this on him. Let's say that he conned his way out of prison, that he sweet-talked his way out, because that would be believable,"' lie said. Cuyahoga Assistant County Prosecutor Steven Dever was unmoved by Gruttadauria 's sometimes emotional comments anu angry tone.

CLEVELAND (AP)- A judge on Monday granted new trials to two former Cuyahoga County elections workers convicted of rigging a recount during the 2004 presidential election to avoid a more thorough review of the votes. Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Shirley Strickland Saffold said the j!!dge who presided over the case had a conflict of interest, since the lawyer who argued a motion during the election workers' trial on behalf of Prosecutor Bill Mason also had represented the judge in two other cases. Elections workers Jacqueline Maiden, Kathleen Dreamer and Rosie Grier were tried together in January. Grier was acquitted, but Maiden; 60, and Dreamer, 40, were convicted and given the maximum sentence of 18 months in prison by Cuyah.oga County Common Pleas Judge Peter Corrigan. The women have been free on bond while they make their appeals. In her decision Monday, Saffold cited Ohio . Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas Moyer's May ruling that disqualified Corrigan from hearing requests from the two workers for new trials because his relationship with assistant county prosecutor Charles Hannan Jr. posed "an Remains ofAir Force family members returned from Libya GREENVILLE (AP) When a voice on the pther end of the telephone told Fred Dean that the relflains of his stillborn son buried in Libya 44 years ago had been returned to the United States, Dean was dumbfounded. "I asked him if he was for reaL I dido ' t believe him," the 67-year-old retired. Air Force airman said Monday. Dean received the call in June, after Air Force officials • returned from the north African country with the remains of 72 deceased Americans . They are believed to be family members of airmen once stationed at Wheelus Air Base outside Tripoli or elsewhere in the region. "I don't know if you ever really give up hope, but we pretty much thought 11 was a lost cause," Dean said. Rodney Earl Dean was stillborn June 2, ·1963, at Wheelus· medical facility arid buried at a nearby cemetery operated by the Italian mihtary. A small numbered marker was placed near the grave . . The remains arrived at Dayton International Airport last week. On Saturday, Fred Dean and his family buried them at a family plot at Greenville Township . Memorial Gardens tn western Ohio. Dean said the whole thing left him both happy and sad. "To us, it was a closure," he said. "It was a good ending to it." Wheelus served as a base for B-52 bombers from 1958 to 1972. Airmen stationed there were permitted to have their families with them . Dean had been stationed at San Vito Del Normandy Air Station in Brindisi, Italy in 1962. He and his wife, Sheila, were expecting their second child when she developed com plications during her pregnancy. She was airlifted to Wheelus for medical care. Mark Blair, chief of Air Force mortuary affairs, said the Italian military offered American airmen free plots and markers at the cemetery. At that time, there was no entitlement for U.S. airmen to have deceased family members flown home. The body of the Dean's son was buried in the cemetery, and the couple returned to the United States in 1964. When plans were recently made to renovate and reduce - the size of the cemetery, the State Department told the Air Force about the American remains. Blair was sent to Libya to head up the project to return the remains. The Air Force said Libya cooperated with the effort. 1>-1\ ~ 'A~ ~· ~ ~ \JJ C1A' , ~ "<'..- '\ : l::. l'! \ ! --l a » ._, ' ,_;;;; !;) .............•···--·----·-···---- flFJUOR.\il\t; ·\IUS l'J~'.Tit f-.

Unearthing the remains took two weeks. The records showed there were about 50 Americans buried in the cemetery, but Blair ani! his team found an 16 infants additional buried in a separate Catholic section. In the end, the remains of 70 infants and two adults were unearthed. They were transported to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on March 6. So far, ·18 remains have been returned to families around the country. The rest are . being maintained in secure facilities at Dover. Blair said that, had the remains not been unearthed and returned to • the United States, it may have been difficult to account for them, Blair and his team took photographs and rubbings of the grave markers. The goal is to locate all of the family members to see if they want the remains buried at a family plot.

Kennedy's 1961 effort in Vienna to e.onvince Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev that capitalism was superior to communism, which resulted in a summit disaster, an intensifi.ed Cold War and, perhaps, the Cuban Missile Crisis.

But Reagan's first summit was in 1985, ~early five years after he took office and after he •had acquired the leverage of the Star Wars program and Pershing II missiles in Europe. Another flaw in Obama's inveterate Bush-basl)ing Clinton's, too- is that they' set themselves up to make a key Bush-like error. On taking office, Bush . rejected everything Clintonian including Bill Clinton's concern about terrorism - . leading to disastrous conse1 quences. Sen. Clinton, in an earlier debate, at least had the grace to say that America "is safer than it was before 9/11 , although not as safe as it should be." The good news m Obam:i's terrorism speech was that he actually shares Bush's sense of the menace presented by global terrorism. "Just because the president misrepresents our enemies does not mean that we don't have them," he said, and promised to "wage the war that has to be won." The most arresting item in the speech was his vow that "if we have actionable intelligence about .high-_value terrorist targets (in Pakistan) . anci ~resident (Pervez) Musharraf won't act, we will." That's bold, but also potentially destabilizi!}g for Pakistan. And why, by the same logic, would Obama not be willing to bomb factories in Iran that produce explosively formed projectiles used against U.S. troops in Iraq, or send commandos in to attack terrorist base camps in Syria? He might, but I doubt it Why? Because that would be in support .of the Iraq War, which Obama (and Clinton) want to get out of. Even though AI Qaeda's No. 2 leader, Ayman al- . Zawahiri, says that Iraq is ' "the place of greatest strug- ·gle" against · the United States, Democrats want to 'abandon it and move to what they think will be an easier conflict in Afghanistan. Itmay not be so easy, as , the British and the Soviets ' discovered. And it may be , even harder if they leave · behind a regional calamity • in Iraq. Obama says he would withdraw "careful- · ly," but he wants no combat forces left by March 31, : 2008. Who will fight AI . Qaeda in Iraq after that?

Ohio State anonymous tip line uncovers rule breakers COLUMBUS (AP) -Ohio State University has called its anonymous tip line a success, saying it has uncovered rule breakers in all comers of the university, from an employee who kept sexually explicit material on a university computer to employees suspected of stealing thousands of dollars. Since the tip line was started in March 2006, the university has investigated 19 tips that resulted in legal or administrative action again~! employees, said Bill Shkurti, senior vice president for business and finance. An additionall07 tips turned out to be unsubstantiated or were not m senous violation of school policy, he said. One anonymous tip led to the investigation of former OSU Treasurer Jim Nichols, who overstated the performance of the university's investment returns in financial reports and failed to follow school policy to quickly sell donated stock. The investigation found no evidence of fraud or misappropriation of funds. Nichols retired while on paid leave after the university's probe and the Ohio Ethics Commission has opened an investigation into other irregularities. Other calls led to the firing of a volunteer coach accused of giving alcohol to members of the women's rugby club and the prosecution of five parking-lot attendants accused of stealing parking receipts that might total thousands of dollars, said university Assistant Police Chief Rick Am we g. Professors' concerns that people would make false complaints have not surfaced, said Allan Silverman, immediate past chairman of the OSU Faculty CounciL The program costs $38,000 annually. OSU has contracted with EthicsPoint until February 2009 to collect telephone and e-mail tips and forward them to university officials for investigation. • Pool from Page A1 dance.

The most recent financial report does not indicate if additional bills are forthcoming. One concern of council has been that the general fund will be responsible for covering bills not paid through pool revenue.

Gruttadauria said his plea agreement required that he remain in custody, not necessarily kept in prison, and he said staying at Oriana House as a federal prisoner with occasional approved leave was allowed. He alleged that it was only when the prosecutor's· office became aware of media interest over him being out in the community that they decided to arrest him. "They said, 'Let's march Frank out to the media. Let's blame this on him. Let's say that he conned his way out of prison, that he sweet-talked his way out, because that would be believable,"' lie said. Cuyahoga Assistant County Prosecutor Steven Dever was unmoved by Gruttadauria 's sometimes emotional comments anu angry tone.

CLEVELAND (AP)- A judge on Monday granted new trials to two former Cuyahoga County elections workers convicted of rigging a recount during the 2004 presidential election to avoid a more thorough review of the votes. Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Shirley Strickland Saffold said the j!!dge who presided over the case had a conflict of interest, since the lawyer who argued a motion during the election workers' trial on behalf of Prosecutor Bill Mason also had represented the judge in two other cases. Elections workers Jacqueline Maiden, Kathleen Dreamer and Rosie Grier were tried together in January. Grier was acquitted, but Maiden; 60, and Dreamer, 40, were convicted and given the maximum sentence of 18 months in prison by Cuyah.oga County Common Pleas Judge Peter Corrigan. The women have been free on bond while they make their appeals. In her decision Monday, Saffold cited Ohio .

"I asked him if he was for reaL I dido ' t believe him," the 67-year-old retired. Air Force airman said Monday. Dean received the call in June, after Air Force officials • returned from the north African country with the remains of 72 deceased Americans . They are believed to be family members of airmen once stationed at Wheelus Air Base outside Tripoli or elsewhere in the region. "I don't know if you ever really give up hope, but we pretty much thought 11 was a lost cause," Dean said. Rodney Earl Dean was stillborn June 2, ·1963, at Wheelus· medical facility arid buried at a nearby cemetery operated by the Italian mihtary. A small numbered marker was placed near the grave . . The remains arrived at Dayton International Airport last week. On Saturday, Fred Dean and his family buried them at a family plot at Greenville Township . Memorial Gardens tn western Ohio. Dean said the whole thing left him both happy and sad. "To us, it was a closure," he said. "It was a good ending to it." Wheelus served as a base for B-52 bombers from 1958 to 1972. Airmen stationed there were permitted to have their families with them . Dean had been stationed at San Vito Del Normandy Air Station in Brindisi, Italy in 1962. He and his wife, Sheila, were expecting their second child when she developed com plications during her pregnancy. She was airlifted to Wheelus for medical care. Mark Blair, chief of Air Force mortuary affairs, said the Italian military offered American airmen free plots and markers at the cemetery. At that time, there was no entitlement for U.S. airmen to have deceased family members flown home. The body of the Dean's son was buried in the cemetery, and the couple returned to the United States in 1964. When plans were recently made to renovate and reduce - the size of the cemetery, the State Department told the Air Force about the American remains. Blair was sent to Libya to head up the project to return the remains. The Air Force said Libya cooperated with the effort. 1>-1\ ~ 'A~ ~· ~ ~ \JJ C1A' , ~ "<'..- '\ : l::. l'! \ ! --l a » ._, ' ,_;;;; !;) .............•···--·----·-···---- flFJUOR.\il\t; ·\IUS l'J~'.Tit f-.

In the end, the remains of 70 infants and two adults were unearthed. They were transported to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on March 6.

"We should go from zero gallons produced to 394 million almost over night," Gentry said. Five plants are under construction in Allen , Coshocton, Darke, Fayette and Putnam counties. They are expected to create about 330 jobs. A sixth plant is under consideration in Hamson County. Two of the plants, one near Coshocton in eastern Ohio and another near Linia in northwestern Ohio, should be making fuel by November, according to the plant's developers. Ethanol production is expected to double as new plants are built to turn corn into the fuel that is blended with gasoline. Private investments in ethanol plants have soared in .the last year as government leaders have called for more production of renewable fuels. About $450 million in government loans and state-backed bonds helped start the projects in Ohio.

Insist on it. Beyond that, ignore their barbs and do your best to be polite to them, no matter how difficult.

Such was the case for Feeney Bennett Monday in its opening game of the 2007 American Legion State Baseball Tournament against Steubenville at Dalton Field. . Post 128, making its first trip to state since 1971, sent 17 batters to the plate and scored 14 runs in the seventh inning, supposedly setting an all-time Ohio record for total runs scored in one frame. The one problem with that monumental accomplishment - · Meigs trailed 16-0 through six innings of play.

Meigs (18-24), which never trailed once in the 8th District tournament, was down by double-digits through four complete. Trailing 16-0, .Post 128 was down to its final three outs heading into the seventh before the .I 0-run mercy rule would have kicked in. Meigs, which had only five hits through six innings, needed seven scores just to keep the game going. What Feeney Bennett came up with was double that amount, and so much more. Steubenville went to its bullpen and Roceo · Auteri after starter Tim Ohalek delivered six solid shutout innings in developing that 16-run advantage. Auteri, however, did not have as much success against the bats of Meigs, allowing six runs and four hits in the seventh without recording an out. Post 33 re-substituted Ohalek back onto the mound, but the original hurler didn't fare much better in his second appearance against Meigs. Ohalek surrendered eight runs and five hits in the seventh, including a grand slam to Cory Shaffer that was followed up by a solo shot off the bat of Luke Haislop. Fourteen runs, nine hits, two walks, two errors and a hit-batsmen later, Meigs found itself back in the contest just two runs down after seven full frames. Not that things weren't alteady interesting after the seyenth inning, but then the contest was moved from Dalton Field to Rannow Field in The Plains because of a lack of lights at Dalton. When the game resumed under the lights at Rannow Field, Post 128 returned to the plate to start the eighth inning. Unfortunately for Feeney Bennett, any momentum gained before the field switch was left at Dalton Field - producing only one hit and one baserunner during its final two at-bats. Southpaw Sam Busic finished up on the- mound for Steubenville, picking up the save for his work in both the eighth and ninth frames. Ohalek was the winning pitcher of record, allowing eight runs, 10 hits, two walks and hitting one batter while fanning three. P I - see St.te, 16 PRESS MINNEAPOLIS - Paul Byrd's first shutout in more than two years and Travis Hafner's homer helped the Cleveland Indians earn a series split with a 4-0 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Monday night. With his old-school, windmill windup and high leg kick, Byrd (10-4) breezed through the Twins. He needed just 99 pitches to get his first shutout since July I, 2005, at Kansas City, taking advantage of a Minnesota offense that may be starting to press with the AL Central . race getting tighter. Just two weeks ago, the Twins were 9 1/2 games out of the division lead, but entered Monday night's series finale with a chance to cut Cleveland's lead to 3 1/2. But the heart of Minnesota's lineup continued to come up empty, once again providing no ~upport for starter Carlos Silva (912). Michael Cuddyer, Justin Morneau and Torii Hunter- hitters No. 4-6 in the order - were a combined 1-for-10 on Monday night and 3-for-31 in the series. · · Morneau's last two atbats of the game were weak popouts on the first pitch, the last with Joe Mauer on first and one out in the seventh. Hunter followed with a popout to second, drawing boos from a home crowd that rarely voices displeasure with tts beloved Twins. The Twins have scored more than four runs in a game just once in the last 14 games, but some strong pitching performances allowed them to take two of the first three from the Indians, who aren't exactly mimicking Murder's Row these days. Cleveland entered the niglit hitting just .228 and averaging 3.4 runs per game in its previous 13, a 4-9 skid that helped the Twins make things a little interesting in the Central. After a demoralizing 1-0 loss on Sunday, the Indians needed a pick -me-up with the Tigers defeating Tampa Please see Indl1111s, 16 It's not heat or humidity for Bucks on 1st day/of practice BY RUSTY MtUER ASSOCIATED PRESS COLUMBUS - Fighting high humidity and temperatures in the 90s, steam was almost risin(l off the field when the Ohto State football team went through its first official practice on Monday. The Buckeyes, coming of't' a 12-1 season, sweated through their workout near the remodeled Woody Hayes Athletic Center. If you can't stand · the heat, get off the practice field, coach Jim Tressel philosophized. "We play noon games the ftrst two and 12:30 (p.m.) at Washington," Tressel said. "From what we hear from the ~nds people over at the (Ohio) Stadium, you're talking 130-plus (degrees) on that tuif if it's a hot, sunny, 12noon game. So we need this heat." Ohio Stadium has a new artificial field that retains more heat than the old gmss field did. So the coaching staff had been hoping that the weather would turn brutally hot to get players ready for the hot days that undoubtedly lie ahead. There is plenty of competition for starting spots in camp. The Buckeyes return on!,y four starters on offense and hve on defense, but have a solid month of practice to fill out the two-deep lineup. "What am I most anxious to photo Ohio· State football coach Jim Tressel keeps a watchful eye on his players during the first day of· practice Monday in Columbus. AP learn?" Tressel repeated. "Hmm. That's a good one, because there's about 4,000 things I'd like to learn." The offense must replace the entire backfield, including Heisman T..-ophy- winning quarterback Troy Smith and leading rusher Antonio Pittman; along with wide receivers - and NFL ftrstmund drdft picks - Ted Ginn Jr. and Anthony Gonzalez. The holes on defense are up front, where three linemen used up their eligibility, and in the secondary. where Antonio Smith and Brandon Mitchell are gone. Tressel is hoping that he gets a good, long look at all four of his quarterback candidates. Todd Boeckman is the nominal starter for now, with Robbie Schoenhoft and Antonio Henton fighting it out for the backup spot. Another intriguing possibility i~ Joe Bauserman, a Tallahassee. Aa. native who -~- committed to Ohio State in 2003 but chose to play professional baseball instead. Bauserman had not practiced with. the .Buckeyes yet because he had not signed his national letter of intent. But that obstacle has now been cleared and he will be taking some snaps in the upcoming weeks. "He had to work out on his own, but, shoot, he made every run," Tressel said of Monday's conditioning tests. "He saJd he could have gone more. He did a ~ood job working io come in m good condition. So I'm anxious to watch him as weU." Ohio State was No. I all last season from the preseason until a 41-14 loss to Florida in ·the BCS National Championship game. One thing that has impressed Tressel thus far has been his players' work ethic. ''They've been a blue-collar group,' he said. ''They don't ask questions. They go to work, they do what the coaches ask of them, they dig right in. I think they want to be a good team." The Buckeyes were picked to finish third in the Big Ten's preseason balloting, behind Michigan and Wisconsin. Ohio State opens it~ I 18th season on Sept. I at home against NCAA Division 1-AA ';'oungstown State. �I The Daily Sentinel COLUMBUS (AP) Ohio remains without any oper~t!ng ethanol plants despite several well-publicized attempts to build 1 them. That could change within the next year, state officials said. Up to five plants should begu'l producing the cornbased fuel next year, said Jamie Gentry, agribusi ness liaison with the Ohio Department of Development. "We should go from zero gallons produced to 394 million almost over night," Gentry said. Five plants are under construction in Allen , Coshocton, Darke, Fayette and Putnam counties. They are expected to create about 330 jobs. A sixth plant is under consideration in Hamson County. Two of the plants, one near Coshocton in eastern Ohio and another near Linia in northwestern Ohio, should be making fuel by November, according to the plant's developers. Ethanol production is expected to double as new plants are built to turn corn into the fuel that is blended with gasoline. Private investments in ethanol plants have soared in .the last year as government leaders have called for more production of renewable fuels. About $450 million in government loans and state-backed bonds helped start the projects in Ohio. The state approved more than $85.8 million in incentives for Greater Ohio Ethanol, which is building the plant near . Lima.

COLUMBUS (AP) - A judge has dismissed conspiracy, and other civil charges against the wife of a Republican fundrai ser and coin dealer who is ~rv i ng '3n 18-year prison sentence for his part in an investment scandal that has cost the state $300 million.

Such was the case for Feeney Bennett Monday in its opening game of the 2007 American Legion State Baseball Tournament against Steubenville at Dalton Field. . Post 128, making its first trip to state since 1971, sent 17 batters to the plate and scored 14 runs in the seventh inning, supposedly setting an all-time Ohio record for total runs scored in one frame.

Meigs (18-24), which never trailed once in the 8th District tournament, was down by double-digits through four complete. Trailing 16-0, .Post 128 was down to its final three outs heading into the seventh before the .I 0-run mercy rule would have kicked in. Meigs, which had only five hits through six innings, needed seven scores just to keep the game going. What Feeney Bennett came up with was double that amount, and so much more. Steubenville went to its bullpen and Roceo · Auteri after starter Tim Ohalek delivered six solid shutout innings in developing that 16-run advantage. Auteri, however, did not have as much success against the bats of Meigs, allowing six runs and four hits in the seventh without recording an out. Post 33 re-substituted Ohalek back onto the mound, but the original hurler didn't fare much better in his second appearance against Meigs. Ohalek surrendered eight runs and five hits in the seventh, including a grand slam to Cory Shaffer that was followed up by a solo shot off the bat of Luke Haislop. Fourteen runs, nine hits, two walks, two errors and a hit-batsmen later, Meigs found itself back in the contest just two runs down after seven full frames. Not that things weren't alteady interesting after the seyenth inning, but then the contest was moved from Dalton Field to Rannow Field in The Plains because of a lack of lights at Dalton. When the game resumed under the lights at Rannow Field, Post 128 returned to the plate to start the eighth inning. Unfortunately for Feeney Bennett, any momentum gained before the field switch was left at Dalton Field - producing only one hit and one baserunner during its final two at-bats. Southpaw Sam Busic finished up on the- mound for Steubenville, picking up the save for his work in both the eighth and ninth frames. Ohalek was the winning pitcher of record, allowing eight runs, 10 hits, two walks and hitting one batter while fanning three. P I - see St.te, 16 PRESS MINNEAPOLIS - Paul Byrd's first shutout in more than two years and Travis Hafner's homer helped the Cleveland Indians earn a series split with a 4-0 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Monday night. With his old-school, windmill windup and high leg kick, Byrd (10-4) breezed through the Twins. He needed just 99 pitches to get his first shutout since July I, 2005, at Kansas City, taking advantage of a Minnesota offense that may be starting to press with the AL Central . race getting tighter. Just two weeks ago, the Twins were 9 1/2 games out of the division lead, but entered Monday night's series finale with a chance to cut Cleveland's lead to 3 1/2. But the heart of Minnesota's lineup continued to come up empty, once again providing no ~upport for starter Carlos Silva (912). Michael Cuddyer, Justin Morneau and Torii Hunter- hitters No. 4-6 in the order - were a combined 1-for-10 on Monday night and 3-for-31 in the series. · · Morneau's last two atbats of the game were weak popouts on the first pitch, the last with Joe Mauer on first and one out in the seventh. Hunter followed with a popout to second, drawing boos from a home crowd that rarely voices displeasure with tts beloved Twins. The Twins have scored more than four runs in a game just once in the last 14 games, but some strong pitching performances allowed them to take two of the first three from the Indians, who aren't exactly mimicking Murder's Row these days. Cleveland entered the niglit hitting just .228 and averaging 3.4 runs per game in its previous 13, a 4-9 skid that helped the Twins make things a little interesting in the Central. After a demoralizing 1-0 loss on Sunday, the Indians needed a pick -me-up with the Tigers defeating Tampa Please see Indl1111s, 16 It's not heat or humidity for Bucks on 1st day/of practice BY RUSTY MtUER ASSOCIATED PRESS COLUMBUS - Fighting high humidity and temperatures in the 90s, steam was almost risin(l off the field when the Ohto State football team went through its first official practice on Monday. The Buckeyes, coming of't' a 12-1 season, sweated through their workout near the remodeled Woody Hayes Athletic Center. If you can't stand · the heat, get off the practice field, coach Jim Tressel philosophized. "We play noon games the ftrst two and 12:30 (p.m.) at Washington," Tressel said. "From what we hear from the ~nds people over at the (Ohio) Stadium, you're talking 130-plus (degrees) on that tuif if it's a hot, sunny, 12noon game. So we need this heat." Ohio Stadium has a new artificial field that retains more heat than the old gmss field did. So the coaching staff had been hoping that the weather would turn brutally hot to get players ready for the hot days that undoubtedly lie ahead. There is plenty of competition for starting spots in camp. The Buckeyes return on!,y four starters on offense and hve on defense, but have a solid month of practice to fill out the two-deep lineup. "What am I most anxious to photo Ohio· State football coach Jim Tressel keeps a watchful eye on his players during the first day of· practice Monday in Columbus. AP learn?" Tressel repeated. "Hmm. That's a good one, because there's about 4,000 things I'd like to learn." The offense must replace the entire backfield, including Heisman T..-ophy- winning quarterback Troy Smith and leading rusher Antonio Pittman; along with wide receivers - and NFL ftrstmund drdft picks - Ted Ginn Jr. and Anthony Gonzalez. The holes on defense are up front, where three linemen used up their eligibility, and in the secondary. where Antonio Smith and Brandon Mitchell are gone. Tressel is hoping that he gets a good, long look at all four of his quarterback candidates. Todd Boeckman is the nominal starter for now, with Robbie Schoenhoft and Antonio Henton fighting it out for the backup spot. Another intriguing possibility i~ Joe Bauserman, a Tallahassee. Aa. native who -~- committed to Ohio State in 2003 but chose to play professional baseball instead. Bauserman had not practiced with. the .Buckeyes yet because he had not signed his national letter of intent. But that obstacle has now been cleared and he will be taking some snaps in the upcoming weeks. "He had to work out on his own, but, shoot, he made every run," Tressel said of Monday's conditioning tests. "He saJd he could have gone more. He did a ~ood job working io come in m good condition. So I'm anxious to watch him as weU." Ohio State was No. I all last season from the preseason until a 41-14 loss to Florida in ·the BCS National Championship game. One thing that has impressed Tressel thus far has been his players' work ethic. ''They've been a blue-collar group,' he said. ''They don't ask questions. They go to work, they do what the coaches ask of them, they dig right in. I think they want to be a good team." The Buckeyes were picked to finish third in the Big Ten's preseason balloting, behind Michigan and Wisconsin. Ohio State opens it~ I 18th season on Sept.

The Super Bowl champions could be a missing a big eontributor on defense for much of the season. indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Anthony McFarland inj ured his knee Friday and rrussed Saturday's controlled scrimmage. . · Colts coach Tony Dungy called the injury serious and said McFarland might need surgery but didn't give details on how the injury happened or which knee was hurt. "It's a long-term injury," Dungy said. "It's (surgery) something that we're contemplatin!l. It's something that I think 1s going to happen." The 300-pound McFarland, who was obtained in a trade from Tampa last season and helped shore up the Colts' run defense in the pla yoff~. left the field early during Friday's workout. He was sent to · Indianapolis for an MRI and has an injured patella tendon. "He's not going to be back in the next three or four weeks or anything like that," Dungy said. Raheem Brock will start at one defensive tackle spot, but it was unclear who would eventually take McFarland's role. Rookie defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock, a third-round draft pick from Ohio State, could fill in. · Pitcock practiced for the first time Monday after missing the first week of camp w1th a leg injury.

The detentions, which came during a visit to China by International Olympic Committee president Jacques Rogge, followed the unfurling of posters depicting the Olympic rings made from handcuffs members of Reporters Without Borders on a pedestrian bridge outside the headquarters of the Beijing Olympics, planning committee. The Paris-based group said China continues to restrict press freedoms and lock up journalists, political dissidents and activists who publish on the Internet - despite pledges to liberalize made when bidding to stage the games.

This layout arose at a Swiss Team event held a month ago in St. Loos. How should South plan the play in four spadas? Wast leads the club ace, cash· es the dub king, and continues w~h tht! club Queen . Soma playoro would opan that Sooll1 hand with one no-trump.This has tho big advantage of dascriblng the balancad nature of the hand and ~s high-card strength. It would also ba easier to find a 5·3 heart fit. Aftllr a one-spade opanlng, North might be forced lo respond one no-trump, not bs\ng strong enough to · rsopond at the two-leveL However, open· lng one no-trump would make 11 diHicuR - impossible? - to lind a 5·3 spade f~ (unleas you use Puppet Stayman. which asks lirot for a five-card major) . West had a bordenlne one-no-trump overcall lacing a passed partner and hc;ding such a weak spade stopper. But he did not want to psss with 16 points or to ctiJub!a with only two diamonds. South's jump to lour spildas was aggros· s\ve, but pays to bid like that in team events. Declarer hod three top losers: one heart and two clubs. So he had to play tho trump suil wnhout loss. If lh& oppononts had been silent, he would have had to guess well, but Wast's ovarca)l gave the gama away.

WALKER ASSOCIATI'D PRESS NASHVILLE, Te nn. A@m "Pacman" Jones is stepping into the ring and giving pro wrestling a whirl. His latest career move was announced Monday ai a new conference. The suspended Tennessee Titans cornerback, who has rarely talked to the media recently, didn't attend as promised but released a statement. . "I am a big fan of wrestling, so I wanted to give it a try." Jones said. " I respect wrestling and I'm not coming in like it's just a show. I want to prove that I am the greatest tearn-spon athlete." Total Nonstop Action Wrestling co-founder Jeff Jarrett said Jones' daughter had arrived from Atlanta on Sunday and the player was with her. NR. contracts prohibit nonfootball activities that could cause injury. Jones: agent, Michael Huyghue, said last week he had talked with the Titans about Jones' plans with TNA. The· agent previously said Jones would not be wrestling. "I do not have a comment," Titans coach Jeff Fisher said when asked about Jones wrestling. Titans quarterback Vince Young said he hasn't talked to Jones about wrestling and is too busy in training camp to watch. "That's his decision. That's his choice. The Tennessee Titans, we're out here working," Young said. Jones was suspended in April for the 2007 season by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for repeated conduct . violations. He dropped his appeal of that punishment in June. TNA announced Jones had tier this year that left a man paralyzed. His bid to join the Titans in training camp was denied by the NR. on July 26. Jones' case w ill be reviewed aftec the Titans' I Oth game, which is Nov. 19. Jarrett said he and other TNA wrestlers have been working with Jones, and he was impressed with the athletic ability of the ftrst defensive player taken in the 2005 draft. "I've never been in the ring with s<imeone with more natural athletic ability," Jarrett said. He wouldn 't be the ftrst TI!lins player to make a TNA appearance. Titans defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch worked the corner for relined tight end Frank Wycheck at a TNA tag team match in June in Nashville. Vanden Bosch said after Monday 's morning practice that he consulted with Titans AP photo officials about what he could Jeff Jarrett, co-founder of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, talks about the involvement of and could not do in that Tennessee Titans cornerback Pacman Jones In their wrestling program Hard Justice appearance.

'The ARC is a great source of revenue for infrasctructure and economic development r,rojects," Varnadoe said. The ARC also has a gQOii record of making funds available based on the needs of.the communi'¥." ' 'fhe reauthonzation bill will next move to confer-. ence where the differences between the House and Senate versions will be rectified. The ARC reauthorization maintains a requirement that at least 50 percent of the Commission 's grant dollars go toward projects or activities benefiting distressed counties and areas. This provision was added in ARC's 2002 reauthorization. Because of its unemployment statistics, income and other demographic information, Meigs County is considered a distressed county and qualifies for additional ARC funding consideration as a result. The new legislation also creates the designation of economically "at risk" counties, counties with frajlile economies but not considered "distressed," and provides an appropriate federal matching rate of 70 percent for ARC-funded projects in those counties . "The reauthorization of ARC remain s a top priority for me and I am very pleased that my colleagues understand the. vital role ARC plays in helping the Appalachian region fully realize its economic potential," Voinov.ich said. "These funds are essential if we are going to build upon the already tremendous successes in Ohio and the other 12 Appalachian states. "I arn particularly excited about my new mitiati ve focused on enhancing the region's economic competitiveness through energy independence and alternative resource development." Meigs County could also benefit from a separate authorization for an Economic and Energy Development' Initiative for the region . The initiative would allow the ARC to provide technic al assi stance and grants to promote energy efficienc y in the region to enhance its economic competitiveness, increase the use of renewable energy resources, especially biomass, in the region to produce alternative transportation fuels, electricity and heat. Since ARC' s inception under the Lyndon Johnson presidency, the region's poveny rate has been cut in half the infant monality rate has been reduced by twothirds and the percentage of adults with a high school education has increased by over 70 percent.
