ANNIE'S MAILBOX •Near-teen should discuss his concerns BY I<A1HY MITCHElL AND MAlleY SuClAR Dear Annie: I am an almost- 13-year-old boy who lives in an average-sized suburban home. My mom is a kindergarten teacher. There is only one problem - my dad. He quit his job in search of another about six years ago. He found more work, but then shattered his leg in a car accident. He got a lot of insurance money, which he has been using to pay off bills. He has almost run out of money and is too depressed to get a new job. (Depression runs in his family. ) I am scared of what might happen to this family if he doesn't get work soon. I am on anti-depressants, but they don't help much. I have spent the pa~t couple of years knowing this would happen. and it finally has. - Scared Dear Scared: We understand why you are afraid, but your family situation should not be on your shoulders. Talk to your parents and explain how stressed you are. Also, since you are on anti-depressants, ask .Mom or Dad to make an appointment for you to speak to your therapist. You also should talk to a grand parent, aunt, uncle or family friend who understands your situation and can help reassure you. Dear Annie: We live on a very soc ially active street. . Some of our neighbors bave frequent get-togethers that my wife, children and I always attend. The problem is that a few neighbors, us included, never reciprocate. I would like to host some parties at our house, but my wife refuses. She says she doesn't want to deal with the mess, although she has no problem having family members over for parties. I feel like a mooch. How can I convince my wife to host a party? She says she'll abide by whatever you say. Social Dilemma in Kentucky Dear Kentucky: Possibly your wife fears her entertaining skills are inadequate, but in reality, most people are happy just to enjoy the company. Ask your wtfe if she would be willing to host an outdoor barbecue - you do the grilling, and she provides the accoutrements (homemade or store-bought). It's very casual, no one expects too much, and most of the mess goes straight into a garbage bag. We suspect if she pushes herself to do it once, the next time will be a piece of cake. Dear Annie: This is in response to "The Cash Giver," who asked ministers why they need to know the amount of a persoo's giving. Here are some possible reasons: · I. With a declining congregation, one ~~light need to look at the giving of regular attendees in order to set or readjust a budget. The church is unique in that it has to follow a budget that is constantly changing and based on random and regular giving. 2. Giving can determine what must be taught from the pulpit or elsewhere. If those who are regular parishioners are not giving, then it needs to be addressed. If they are re~u­ larly giving, but overall givmg is just low (since a tithe is based on one's income), then other issues must be looked at. 3. For purposes of leadership, one might need to hold accountable their giving to the biblical standard. Leadership must lead by example. Fmally, the real issue here is trust. This minister has been given the task of leading your church, and you need to trust that he is doing his Qesl If you have questions, go to him and ask. Don't make decisions regarding your church attendance ba..ect on the replies of others in a newspaper. I hope you and your church conlinue to grow through this time. Pastor John Dear Pastor John: Most of our readers are not'in favor of their minister knowing what they are givinjl. but you have made some mteresting points for the other side. Thanks for writing.

ANNIE'S MAILBOX •Near-teen should discuss his concerns BY I<A1HY MITCHElL AND MAlleY SuClAR Dear Annie: I am an almost- 13-year-old boy who lives in an average-sized suburban home. My mom is a kindergarten teacher. There is only one problem - my dad. He quit his job in search of another about six years ago. He found more work, but then shattered his leg in a car accident. He got a lot of insurance money, which he has been using to pay off bills. He has almost run out of money and is too depressed to get a new job. (Depression runs in his family. ) I am scared of what might happen to this family if he doesn't get work soon. I am on anti-depressants, but they don't help much. I have spent the pa~t couple of years knowing this would happen. and it finally has. - Scared Dear Scared: We understand why you are afraid, but your family situation should not be on your shoulders. Talk to your parents and explain how stressed you are. Also, since you are on anti-depressants, ask .Mom or Dad to make an appointment for you to speak to your therapist. You also should talk to a grand parent, aunt, uncle or family friend who understands your situation and can help reassure you. Dear Annie: We live on a very soc ially active street. . Some of our neighbors bave frequent get-togethers that my wife, children and I always attend. The problem is that a few neighbors, us included, never reciprocate. I would like to host some parties at our house, but my wife refuses. She says she doesn't want to deal with the mess, although she has no problem having family members over for parties. I feel like a mooch. How can I convince my wife to host a party? She says she'll abide by whatever you say. Social Dilemma in Kentucky Dear Kentucky: Possibly your wife fears her entertaining skills are inadequate, but in reality, most people are happy just to enjoy the company. Ask your wtfe if she would be willing to host an outdoor barbecue - you do the grilling, and she provides the accoutrements (homemade or store-bought). It's very casual, no one expects too much, and most of the mess goes straight into a garbage bag. We suspect if she pushes herself to do it once, the next time will be a piece of cake. Dear Annie: This is in response to "The Cash Giver," who asked ministers why they need to know the amount of a persoo's giving. Here are some possible reasons: · I. With a declining congregation, one ~~light need to look at the giving of regular attendees in order to set or readjust a budget. The church is unique in that it has to follow a budget that is constantly changing and based on random and regular giving. 2. Giving can determine what must be taught from the pulpit or elsewhere. If those who are regular parishioners are not giving, then it needs to be addressed. If they are re~u­ larly giving, but overall givmg is just low (since a tithe is based on one's income), then other issues must be looked at. 3. For purposes of leadership, one might need to hold accountable their giving to the biblical standard. Leadership must lead by example. Fmally, the real issue here is trust. This minister has been given the task of leading your church, and you need to trust that he is doing his Qesl If you have questions, go to him and ask. Don't make decisions regarding your church attendance ba..ect on the replies of others in a newspaper. I hope you and your church conlinue to grow through this time. Pastor John Dear Pastor John: Most of our readers are not'in favor of their minister knowing what they are givinjl. but you have made some mteresting points for the other side. Thanks for writing.

Marcus Luttrell's book, "Lone Sur\Tivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10," is a national bestseller, maybe Americans are ready to start a discussion about the core issue his story brings to light: the inverted morality and insanity of · U.S. military rules of engagement. · On a stark mountaintop in Afghanistan, Leading Petty Officer Luttrell and three Navy SEAL teammates found themselves having just such a discussion back in 2005 . Dropped behind enemy lines to kill or capture a Taliban kingpin who commanded between 150 and 200 fighters, the SEAL team was unexpectedly discovered in the e.arly stages of a mission whose success, of . course, . depended on secrecy. Three unarmed Afghan goatherds, one a teenager; had stumbled across the Americans' positiOn, presenting th.e soldiers' with an urgent dilemma: What should they do? If they let the Afghans go, the Afghans would probably alert the Taliban to the their whereabouts. This would mean a battle in which the Americans were outnumbered by at least 35 to I. If the Americans didn't let the goatherds go - · if they killed them, because there was no way to hold them - Diana West goatherds on their way. One hour later, a sizeable Taliban force attacked, beginning a horrendous battle that resulted not only in the deaths of Mr. Luttrell 's three SEAL teammates,' but also the deaths of 16 wouldbe rescuers - eight additional SEALs and eight Army special operations soldiers whose helicopter was shot down by a Tahban the Americans would avoid detection and, m\)st likely, leave the area safely.

ALL BUSINESS: Toy recalls leave companies with no choice but to improve China operations M' BUSINESS WRITER . NEW YORK - The first Barbie doll to hit the market in 1959 cost $3 each. Today, the fashion doll won't set you back for much more. That's the economics of -the toy business. Consumers demand low prices. Toymakers want fat , profits. So manufacturing ambled off to China, which for a long time has been willing and able to please both. . Now a massive toy recall by Mattei Inc. reveals an ·ugly side to that cost-cutting drive. The sacrifice of safety just to provide cheap toys is something everyone will have to pay for. The slogan "Made in China" has long stood· for affordability. Thanks to the dramatically lower labor costs that China offered estimated by some to be ·a fifth of what ·they are globally - toymakers could. knock down their expenses by shifting production abroad. That not only has boosted corporate earnings, but helped them gain sh,elfspace in retail chains like Wal-Mart Stores Inc. that insisted on low prices for the products they bought. The merchants could th~n offer good deals to priceconscious shoppers. wtthout losing any pmfits. The result is an industry that hasn't seen its products' prices soar much. Many of today's toys, when . adjusted for mflation, may be less expensive than those decades ago, even though such thin~s as raw material costs - hke paper and plastic ·_ have skyrocketed, according to independent toy industry consultant Chris Byrne. . "We can't have everdecreasing prices without somethin~ eventually being squeezed, ' Byrne sa1d. That squeeze is what has been grabbing headlines lately. As millions of Chinamade toys have . been recalled, suddenly Americans have become very aware - and scaredof the risks of manufacturing there. It's easy to see why the alarm bells are going off. When playthings with bigtime brands' names are considered health risks, that makes for much .con versa· lion among parents who are now dismayed about what's lurking in their toy bin. This puts the toy industry in a tricky spot. With more than 80 percent of U.S. toys imported from China, toy· makers here can' t afford to abandon production. But if they want to keep customers, toy sellers must change their Chinese operations significantly. Mattei Inc. is facing that new reality right now. This summer has been tough for the world's largest toymaker, which has seen its reputation as a leader in manufacturin g safety unravel after two highly publicized recalls in just ·as mnny weeks. The first came on Aug. 2 with its Fisher-Price di vision recalling 83 types of toys - including the popular Big Bird, Elmo, Dora and Diego characters because their paint contains excessive amounts of lead. Then on Aug. 14, lead paint also led to the recall of hundreds . of thousands of die cast cars. In total, El Segundo, Calif.-based Mattei has recalled almost two million . toys worldwide due to lead paint concerns, plus millions more for other safety reasons. Mattei has said it will take a $30 million charge to cover the cost of the recalls, ·but that doesn't include what it will spend to convince the public that its toys are safe. Analysts estimate that millions of dollars more will have to go toward monitoring its foreign vendors and creating a marketing program that assuages parents' concerns. Mattei has already said that it will switch from randomly testing finished· toys to testing every batch of toys produced. lt will also step up safety checks at the suppliers and subcontractors before they finish making the toy. . While Mattei has become the poster-child of Chinese manufacturing gone wrong, its rivals should be scrambling to avoid being caught in a similar spot. That doesn't mean just kee ping beller tabs on the manufacturers that they have direct contact with, but looking at every vendor, the vendor's ven- dor, and so on. "The transparency at the back-end of these operations is hazy," said Eric Johnson, professor of operations management at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business who has studied Chinese manufacturing. "Each layer becomes harder to manage and control." He sees how the situation at Mattei - and probably plenty of others - could have played out. With everyone up and down the . supply chain so pressed to cut costs, factories that used to rely on brand-name paint found cheaper no-name options from local suppliers. And as those suppliers continually race to offer the cheapest alternative, lead paint lands on toys. It's pretty clear right now that doing business in China just got more expensive. It can't stay the wild-west of manufacturing that it has become. Toymakers .can't just roll out flashy advertising campaigns that promise upgraded safety, imd not fix their behind-the-scenes operations. They have to figure out how to bring the standards and ethics of their Chinese partners up to acceptable levels, or threaten to take their business elsewhere if changes aren't ..made. .

The Controlling Board has seven members - three tuembers of the "Ohio House, three from the state Senate and a board president appointed by the governor. Board tuembers will definitely have some questions about the University of Akron plan, said Republican state Sen. John Carey, chairman of the Senate Fmance Committee and a rnember of the Controlling Board. The board often wonders about universities' land buys when college leaders so often complain that they don't have the proper funding to maintain current facil1ties, he said. "It does seem sotuetirnes that just because the land is available the university wants to buy it," Carey said. "Sometimes there's a concern that they are buying to be buying."

The Controlling Board hils turned down just one proposal in 25 years - a request from Youngstown State University in the 1990s, the newspiper said. The University of Akron's plan is to buy the eight-story, Quaker Square hotel complex downtown and convert it into dorms for 382 students. Plans also call for offices, a banquet hall and 450 parlcing spaces. School officials say the growing cam" pus needs more space. The university is tearing down housing for about 350 students on the other side of the campus to make way fot a $55 million, 30,000-seat football stadium to replace the 68-year· old Rubber Bowl.

Marcus Luttrell's book, "Lone Sur\Tivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10," is a national bestseller, maybe Americans are ready to start a discussion about the core issue his story brings to light: the inverted morality and insanity of · U.S. military rules of engagement. · On a stark mountaintop in Afghanistan, Leading Petty Officer Luttrell and three Navy SEAL teammates found themselves having just such a discussion back in 2005 . Dropped behind enemy lines to kill or capture a Taliban kingpin who commanded between 150 and 200 fighters, the SEAL team was unexpectedly discovered in the e.arly stages of a mission whose success, of . course, . depended on secrecy. Three unarmed Afghan goatherds, one a teenager; had stumbled across the Americans' positiOn, presenting th.e soldiers' with an urgent dilemma: What should they do? If they let the Afghans go, the Afghans would probably alert the Taliban to the their whereabouts. This would mean a battle in which the Americans were outnumbered by at least 35 to I. If the Americans didn't let the goatherds go - · if they killed them, because there was no way to hold them - Diana West goatherds on their way. One hour later, a sizeable Taliban force attacked, beginning a horrendous battle that resulted not only in the deaths of Mr. Luttrell 's three SEAL teammates,' but also the deaths of 16 wouldbe rescuers - eight additional SEALs and eight Army special operations soldiers whose helicopter was shot down by a Tahban the Americans would avoid detection and, m\)st likely, leave the area safely.

I find it hard to believe that this is something most Americans applaud, but it's impossible to know because this debate hasn't begun. But it should. It strikes at the core not only of our capacity to make war, but also our will to survive. A nation that doesn't autoni.al·ically value its sons who fight to protect it more than the "unarmed civilians" they encounter behind enemy lines is not only unlikely to win a war: It isn't showing much interest in its own survival.

ALL BUSINESS: Toy recalls leave companies with no choice but to improve China operations M' BUSINESS WRITER . NEW YORK - The first Barbie doll to hit the market in 1959 cost $3 each. Today, the fashion doll won't set you back for much more. That's the economics of -the toy business. Consumers demand low prices. Toymakers want fat , profits. So manufacturing ambled off to China, which for a long time has been willing and able to please both. . Now a massive toy recall by Mattei Inc. reveals an ·ugly side to that cost-cutting drive. The sacrifice of safety just to provide cheap toys is something everyone will have to pay for. The slogan "Made in China" has long stood· for affordability. Thanks to the dramatically lower labor costs that China offered estimated by some to be ·a fifth of what ·they are globally - toymakers could. knock down their expenses by shifting production abroad. That not only has boosted corporate earnings, but helped them gain sh,elfspace in retail chains like Wal-Mart Stores Inc. that insisted on low prices for the products they bought. The merchants could th~n offer good deals to priceconscious shoppers. wtthout losing any pmfits. The result is an industry that hasn't seen its products' prices soar much. Many of today's toys, when . adjusted for mflation, may be less expensive than those decades ago, even though such thin~s as raw material costs - hke paper and plastic ·_ have skyrocketed, according to independent toy industry consultant Chris Byrne. . "We can't have everdecreasing prices without somethin~ eventually being squeezed, ' Byrne sa1d. That squeeze is what has been grabbing headlines lately. As millions of Chinamade toys have . been recalled, suddenly Americans have become very aware - and scaredof the risks of manufacturing there. It's easy to see why the alarm bells are going off. When playthings with bigtime brands' names are considered health risks, that makes for much .con versa· lion among parents who are now dismayed about what's lurking in their toy bin. This puts the toy industry in a tricky spot. With more than 80 percent of U.S. toys imported from China, toy· makers here can' t afford to abandon production. But if they want to keep customers, toy sellers must change their Chinese operations significantly. Mattei Inc. is facing that new reality right now. This summer has been tough for the world's largest toymaker, which has seen its reputation as a leader in manufacturin g safety unravel after two highly publicized recalls in just ·as mnny weeks. The first came on Aug. 2 with its Fisher-Price di vision recalling 83 types of toys - including the popular Big Bird, Elmo, Dora and Diego characters because their paint contains excessive amounts of lead. Then on Aug. 14, lead paint also led to the recall of hundreds . of thousands of die cast cars. In total, El Segundo, Calif.-based Mattei has recalled almost two million . toys worldwide due to lead paint concerns, plus millions more for other safety reasons. Mattei has said it will take a $30 million charge to cover the cost of the recalls, ·but that doesn't include what it will spend to convince the public that its toys are safe. Analysts estimate that millions of dollars more will have to go toward monitoring its foreign vendors and creating a marketing program that assuages parents' concerns. Mattei has already said that it will switch from randomly testing finished· toys to testing every batch of toys produced. lt will also step up safety checks at the suppliers and subcontractors before they finish making the toy. . While Mattei has become the poster-child of Chinese manufacturing gone wrong, its rivals should be scrambling to avoid being caught in a similar spot. That doesn't mean just kee ping beller tabs on the manufacturers that they have direct contact with, but looking at every vendor, the vendor's ven- dor, and so on. "The transparency at the back-end of these operations is hazy," said Eric Johnson, professor of operations management at Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business who has studied Chinese manufacturing. "Each layer becomes harder to manage and control." He sees how the situation at Mattei - and probably plenty of others - could have played out. With everyone up and down the . supply chain so pressed to cut costs, factories that used to rely on brand-name paint found cheaper no-name options from local suppliers. And as those suppliers continually race to offer the cheapest alternative, lead paint lands on toys. It's pretty clear right now that doing business in China just got more expensive. It can't stay the wild-west of manufacturing that it has become. Toymakers .can't just roll out flashy advertising campaigns that promise upgraded safety, imd not fix their behind-the-scenes operations. They have to figure out how to bring the standards and ethics of their Chinese partners up to acceptable levels, or threaten to take their business elsewhere if changes aren't ..made. . Gon e are the da ys of squeezing every last penny out of an operation. What loy companies are saving won't matter if no one buys their playthings. • Phelps, $300, Farmers Bank.

The board often wonders about universities' land buys when college leaders so often complain that they don't have the proper funding to maintain current facil1ties, he said.

The Controlling Board hils turned down just one proposal in 25 years - a request from Youngstown State University in the 1990s, the newspiper said. The University of Akron's plan is to buy the eight-story, Quaker Square hotel complex downtown and convert it into dorms for 382 students. Plans also call for offices, a banquet hall and 450 parlcing spaces. School officials say the growing cam" pus needs more space. The university is tearing down housing for about 350 students on the other side of the campus to make way fot a $55 million, 30,000-seat football stadium to replace the 68-year· old Rubber Bowl.

He didn ' t see what he wanted. Namely, what went missing was some points from the guys named Ben, Willie and Hines, not a second-line kicker named Connor Hughes. The Steelers' regulars went without a touchdown for the second game in a row during their 12-10 exhibition victory over Washington on Saturday night, a game that wasn't satisfyinj?; or very productive for either team. The Redskins lost quarterback Jason Campbell to a knee injury, probably for a couple of weeks, and the Steelers simply didn't do much when they had the ball. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger played four series, or one more than in the first two preseason games combined. He was 8of-12 for 87 yards yet the Steelers still didn'tmove the ball, partly because Willie Parker was limited to four yards on four carries in his first playi ng time of'the preseason.· The Steelers' offensive inefficiency was similar to that of their previous game, a 13-9 loss to Green Bay when· they did: nothing during Roethlisbets;er's two series. Of course,.tt's hard to settle into much of a rhythm when the series don't last long and the starters are out by halftime. Hines Ward, for example, had four catches Saturday but averaged only five yards per catch. "Like to · see him (Roethlisberger) perform better, like to see the offen·se perform better, but that was a charged-u.J; defense," Tomlin said. ' On a positive note, we moved the ball down the field and kind of changed the ebb and flow of the game ... to get a field goal before the end of the first half." All the Steelers got were field goals, one by Jeff Reed before halftime and three by Hughes after the break. Still, it ll,lay be a little too e:n-Iy for Tomfin to ~et womed the offense won t be there when the season starts Sept. 9 at Cleveland. Roethlisberger drove the offense 80 yards in six plays for a touchdown in his only playing time Aug. 5 against New Orleans, but has produced only one field goal in six possessions siiiCe then. Roethlisberger will get more time Sunday against Philadelphia to sort out the offense, whicb figures to 6e much more productive when Parker regains his game legs after' being out ~f camp for two weeks With a knee injury. "I haven' t got hit in a long time so it was normal, but I had to get my Dody acclimated to a hit," said Parker, who ran for I ,494 yards last season with a pair of 200yard games. "Once I got my frrst hit, I was ready to ·~o. My body's all right. I m ready to. go." The kicking game was a strength as the kickers made all four field goal attempts; though none was Ion11er than 28 yards, and rookie Dan Sepulveda averaged 48.5 yards on four punts. "The big thmg that I like about this football team is when we identify problems, we make them disappear, i.e. field-goal protection and special teams, which showed up in a big way," Tomlin satd. Tomlin was referring to the sub-par blocking on kicking plays that led to a missed field goal against the Saints and a blocked extra point against Green Bay. "Our punter and our punt coverage kept us in it early. There was'n 't a lot going well except that we were nettin~ 50 ana .60 yards (per punt), ' Tomlin 'said. Because the Steelers don't play ·again until the natit?nal TV home game agamst Philadelphia, Tomlin will stay with a regular season practice sched11le this week. The Steeler~ broke canip .

Quincy Wilson had four carries for 19 yards, and Kenny Watson had eight carries for 18 yards against the Saints. Neither distinguisbed himself in the competition for the No. 2 role. Coach Marvin Lewis is disappointed by how the entire team played on Saturday , - the starting defense gave up 17 points on New Orleans' first three possessions but he's counting on tHe offense to come around once the games count. · "I think we went through that a couple of years ago, and all was good," Lewis said. "We'll go back to scoring. We don:t do any game-planning for these games. We are not going to change that. We will keep working on the things we need to." CLEVELAND - Brady Quinn's biggest throw could tum out to be a monkey wrench. With flashbulbs popping all around the stadiUm, Cleveland's rookie quarterback tossed two fourth-QUill'· ter touc)tdown passes in his frrst NFL exhibition game and looked better than any Browns quarterback in a 23. 20 loss to Detroit on Saturday night. Quinn:s performance f3-of-20 for 155 ylij'ds in the final 9:20 - may- muddle Cleveland's starting quarterback competition between Charlie Frye and Derek Anderson, who were both booed by Browns fans. Asked if Quinn is now in the mix to be his starter, Browns coach Romeo Crennel didn't say no. "I think you've got to give the young man credit," Crennel said. "Their best guys weren't in there but our best guys weren't in there either. I'll look at the tape and we'll decide. He's still a young quarterback and he had a limited offense and I betieve in time that he's going to be. a good quarterback. "But the reason he didn't play more tonight was that he wasn't ready. I've said all along we'll see what the kid can do and when he gets a better grasp of the offense we'll ask him to do more." Crennel said he may have to delay his decision on who will start the Sept. 9 season opener against Ptttsburgh. "If we have to go another week, we have to go another week," he said. The former Notre ·Dame star entered with the Browns down 23-7. As No. I 0 jogged onto the field, Cleveland fans welcomed Quinn with a roaring ovation, and many of them stayed on their feet after Quinn hit Chris Barclay on a served a pair of aces to open the match, then broke Blake's serve in the next game to take control. Blake had three break chances in the fifth game of the opening set, which lasted 20 points and ended · with Federer's emphatic forehand volley. Opponents rarely get such chances against Federer. Deflated that he let it slip away, Blake was broken at 0-40 in the next game. Blake was on' the defensive the rest of the way. Federer broke him to go up 4-3, then fought off a couple of break points in the next game to retain control. Finally, he served his ninth ace of the match to win the title that was, in his words, "a very special number." Bjorn Borg won his 50th title when he was 23 years, 7 months old . Jimmy Connors was four months older when he got to the mark. John McEnroe and Ivan Lend! were 25 when they did it. The crystal trophy thai he received on court will wind uf in his home in Oberwi , Switzerland, where he has a special room - "It's grown to about office size" - to display those 50-plus mementos. They're kept behind glass "so you don't have t6 dust them off all the time," Federer noted. Gives him more time to work on dusting off the competition. In recent years, the Cincinnati tournament has been a good barometer heading into the U.S . Open. Federer won it easi- . ly two years ago, then went on to get the second of his U.S. Open fitles. Last year, Roddick emerged from his seasonlong funk in Cincinnati, won the tournament and AP photo Cincinnati ·sengals quarterback Carson Palmer tumbles the ball as he is hit by New Orleans Saints' Antwan Lake (96), anti Charles Grant (94), in the second quarter of a pre-season NFL football game on Saturday in Cincinnati. Offense fromPageBl I. .) ·I ' ) great job. On that deep post (pattern), I just overthrew him. I missed him." Perry acknowledged that he and Palmer have yet to develop a chemistry on the field. "I've just got to keep workin_g on it," Perry said. "We've got a couple more games to go." The offensive line also is in flux. Jones is expected back at left tackle before the season opener, but there 's no way of telling whether Anderson will be able to take his.spot at right tackle. The Bengals also are tTY.ing to figure out who wtll complement power run2ing back Rudi Johnson, who had six carries for only IS yards on Saturday night. Second-round draft pick Kenny Irons was expected Federer from PageBl against Blake, who has· won only one of their 19 sets off a tiebreaker in the semifinals at the U.S. Open last year. He's not the only hardhitting American who can't figure out how to handle's Federer' s overall excellence. Federer has won 35 straight matches . against Americans since he lost to Andy Roddick in the semifloaTs at Montreal on Aug. 9 , 2003 . During that span, different Americans have risen and fallen, but none has broken through. "He's good enough to find just about anx which way to beat you, ' Blake said. "There's always somethin~ for him to fall back on.' Blake was playing catchup from the start. Federer i screen pass that went for 30 yards on his first play. Quinn completed five passes in a row before his . frrst miss. On second-and-3 at Detroit's 4, he calmly rolled to his right and drilled a TO pass to rookie Efrem Hill, who got open near the sideline. The next time Cleveland got the ball, Quinn drove the Browns 92 yards in I :52, hitting Jerome Harrison with a 6-yard TO pass with 18 seconds left. Quinn was pleased with his performance, but was happtest about getting back on the field. "I was trying to do my best to stay calm," Quinn satd. "It felt good to cross the lines and play. Hopefully I'll get better and better." Quiim missed II days of training camp before si~ning a five-year, $20.2 mtllion contract, and didn't get off \he sideline in last week's win over Kansas City. Crennel has insisted Quinn ts behind in learning Cleveland's new offeAse, but with the way Frye and Anderson are playing, he may be able to catch up quickly. . Quinn was antsy to show what he could do. "I'd been holding a clipboard for one game and three quarters," he said. "It's been tough to wait it out," As for entering the quarterback race, Quinn knows that's not his call. "That's not my decision," he said. "I think anyone of those guys could have done that facing that situation in the two-minute drill. The defense was in soft coverage." Maybe so, but Quinn didn't make any mistakes either. "We now need to see if he can do that against ftrst- and second-team defenses," Browns receiver Joe Jurevicius said. "It's not a takeaway from him. He did a good job when given the · opportunity." took a lot of confidence into the Open, where he reached the title match before losing to Federer. Federer has momentum in his quest for a fourth straight U.S. Open title, but there's reason for others to see opportunity. Federer wasn ' t in peak form this week, making a lot of unforced errors. He needed three sets to beat Nicolas Almagro and resurgent Lleyton Hewitt to reach the title match. Using that as a guide, this Open could be more wide-oren. Or, i Sunday is an indication, it mi~ht end up as another atldttion to that glassed-in trophy case .

He didn ' t see what he wanted. Namely, what went missing was some points from the guys named Ben, Willie and Hines, not a second-line kicker named Connor Hughes. The Steelers' regulars went without a touchdown for the second game in a row during their 12-10 exhibition victory over Washington on Saturday night, a game that wasn't satisfyinj?; or very productive for either team. The Redskins lost quarterback Jason Campbell to a knee injury, probably for a couple of weeks, and the Steelers simply didn't do much when they had the ball. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger played four series, or one more than in the first two preseason games combined. He was 8of-12 for 87 yards yet the Steelers still didn'tmove the ball, partly because Willie Parker was limited to four yards on four carries in his first playi ng time of'the preseason.· The Steelers' offensive inefficiency was similar to that of their previous game, a 13-9 loss to Green Bay when· they did: nothing during Roethlisbets;er's two series. Of course,.tt's hard to settle into much of a rhythm when the series don't last long and the starters are out by halftime. Hines Ward, for example, had four catches Saturday but averaged only five yards per catch. "Like to · see him (Roethlisberger) perform better, like to see the offen·se perform better, but that was a charged-u.J; defense," Tomlin said. ' On a positive note, we moved the ball down the field and kind of changed the ebb and flow of the game ... to get a field goal before the end of the first half." All the Steelers got were field goals, one by Jeff Reed before halftime and three by Hughes after the break. Still, it ll,lay be a little too e:n-Iy for Tomfin to ~et womed the offense won t be there when the season starts Sept. 9 at Cleveland. Roethlisberger drove the offense 80 yards in six plays for a touchdown in his only playing time Aug. 5 against New Orleans, but has produced only one field goal in six possessions siiiCe then. Roethlisberger will get more time Sunday against Philadelphia to sort out the offense, whicb figures to 6e much more productive when Parker regains his game legs after' being out ~f camp for two weeks With a knee injury. "I haven' t got hit in a long time so it was normal, but I had to get my Dody acclimated to a hit," said Parker, who ran for I ,494 yards last season with a pair of 200yard games. "Once I got my frrst hit, I was ready to ·~o. My body's all right. I m ready to. go." The kicking game was a strength as the kickers made all four field goal attempts; though none was Ion11er than 28 yards, and rookie Dan Sepulveda averaged 48.5 yards on four punts. "The big thmg that I like about this football team is when we identify problems, we make them disappear, i.e. field-goal protection and special teams, which showed up in a big way," Tomlin satd. Tomlin was referring to the sub-par blocking on kicking plays that led to a missed field goal against the Saints and a blocked extra point against Green Bay. "Our punter and our punt coverage kept us in it early. There was'n 't a lot going well except that we were nettin~ 50 ana .60 yards (per punt), ' Tomlin 'said. Because the Steelers don't play ·again until the natit?nal TV home game agamst Philadelphia, Tomlin will stay with a regular season practice sched11le this week. The Steeler~ broke canip .

Quincy Wilson had four carries for 19 yards, and Kenny Watson had eight carries for 18 yards against the Saints. Neither distinguisbed himself in the competition for the No. 2 role. Coach Marvin Lewis is disappointed by how the entire team played on Saturday , - the starting defense gave up 17 points on New Orleans' first three possessions but he's counting on tHe offense to come around once the games count. · "I think we went through that a couple of years ago, and all was good," Lewis said. "We'll go back to scoring. We don:t do any game-planning for these games. We are not going to change that. We will keep working on the things we need to." CLEVELAND - Brady Quinn's biggest throw could tum out to be a monkey wrench. With flashbulbs popping all around the stadiUm, Cleveland's rookie quarterback tossed two fourth-QUill'· ter touc)tdown passes in his frrst NFL exhibition game and looked better than any Browns quarterback in a 23. 20 loss to Detroit on Saturday night. Quinn:s performance f3-of-20 for 155 ylij'ds in the final 9:20 - may- muddle Cleveland's starting quarterback competition between Charlie Frye and Derek Anderson, who were both booed by Browns fans. Asked if Quinn is now in the mix to be his starter, Browns coach Romeo Crennel didn't say no. "I think you've got to give the young man credit," Crennel said. "Their best guys weren't in there but our best guys weren't in there either. I'll look at the tape and we'll decide. He's still a young quarterback and he had a limited offense and I betieve in time that he's going to be. a good quarterback. "But the reason he didn't play more tonight was that he wasn't ready. I've said all along we'll see what the kid can do and when he gets a better grasp of the offense we'll ask him to do more." Crennel said he may have to delay his decision on who will start the Sept. 9 season opener against Ptttsburgh. "If we have to go another week, we have to go another week," he said. The former Notre ·Dame star entered with the Browns down 23-7. As No. I 0 jogged onto the field, Cleveland fans welcomed Quinn with a roaring ovation, and many of them stayed on their feet after Quinn hit Chris Barclay on a served a pair of aces to open the match, then broke Blake's serve in the next game to take control. Blake had three break chances in the fifth game of the opening set, which lasted 20 points and ended · with Federer's emphatic forehand volley. Opponents rarely get such chances against Federer. Deflated that he let it slip away, Blake was broken at 0-40 in the next game. Blake was on' the defensive the rest of the way. Federer broke him to go up 4-3, then fought off a couple of break points in the next game to retain control. Finally, he served his ninth ace of the match to win the title that was, in his words, "a very special number." Bjorn Borg won his 50th title when he was 23 years, 7 months old . Jimmy Connors was four months older when he got to the mark. John McEnroe and Ivan Lend! were 25 when they did it. The crystal trophy thai he received on court will wind uf in his home in Oberwi , Switzerland, where he has a special room - "It's grown to about office size" - to display those 50-plus mementos. They're kept behind glass "so you don't have t6 dust them off all the time," Federer noted. Gives him more time to work on dusting off the competition. In recent years, the Cincinnati tournament has been a good barometer heading into the U.S . Open. Federer won it easi- . ly two years ago, then went on to get the second of his U.S. Open fitles. Last year, Roddick emerged from his seasonlong funk in Cincinnati, won the tournament and AP photo Cincinnati ·sengals quarterback Carson Palmer tumbles the ball as he is hit by New Orleans Saints' Antwan Lake (96), anti Charles Grant (94), in the second quarter of a pre-season NFL football game on Saturday in Cincinnati. Offense fromPageBl I. .) ·I ' ) great job. On that deep post (pattern), I just overthrew him. I missed him." Perry acknowledged that he and Palmer have yet to develop a chemistry on the field. "I've just got to keep workin_g on it," Perry said. "We've got a couple more games to go." The offensive line also is in flux. Jones is expected back at left tackle before the season opener, but there 's no way of telling whether Anderson will be able to take his.spot at right tackle. The Bengals also are tTY.ing to figure out who wtll complement power run2ing back Rudi Johnson, who had six carries for only IS yards on Saturday night. Second-round draft pick Kenny Irons was expected Federer from PageBl against Blake, who has· won only one of their 19 sets off a tiebreaker in the semifinals at the U.S. Open last year. He's not the only hardhitting American who can't figure out how to handle's Federer' s overall excellence. Federer has won 35 straight matches . against Americans since he lost to Andy Roddick in the semifloaTs at Montreal on Aug. 9 , 2003 . During that span, different Americans have risen and fallen, but none has broken through. "He's good enough to find just about anx which way to beat you, ' Blake said. "There's always somethin~ for him to fall back on.' Blake was playing catchup from the start. Federer i screen pass that went for 30 yards on his first play. Quinn completed five passes in a row before his . frrst miss. On second-and-3 at Detroit's 4, he calmly rolled to his right and drilled a TO pass to rookie Efrem Hill, who got open near the sideline. The next time Cleveland got the ball, Quinn drove the Browns 92 yards in I :52, hitting Jerome Harrison with a 6-yard TO pass with 18 seconds left. Quinn was pleased with his performance, but was happtest about getting back on the field. "I was trying to do my best to stay calm," Quinn satd. "It felt good to cross the lines and play. Hopefully I'll get better and better." Quiim missed II days of training camp before si~ning a five-year, $20.2 mtllion contract, and didn't get off \he sideline in last week's win over Kansas City. Crennel has insisted Quinn ts behind in learning Cleveland's new offeAse, but with the way Frye and Anderson are playing, he may be able to catch up quickly. . Quinn was antsy to show what he could do. "I'd been holding a clipboard for one game and three quarters," he said. "It's been tough to wait it out," As for entering the quarterback race, Quinn knows that's not his call. "That's not my decision," he said. "I think anyone of those guys could have done that facing that situation in the two-minute drill. The defense was in soft coverage." Maybe so, but Quinn didn't make any mistakes either. "We now need to see if he can do that against ftrst- and second-team defenses," Browns receiver Joe Jurevicius said. "It's not a takeaway from him. He did a good job when given the · opportunity." took a lot of confidence into the Open, where he reached the title match before losing to Federer. Federer has momentum in his quest for a fourth straight U.S. Open title, but there's reason for others to see opportunity. Federer wasn ' t in peak form this week, making a lot of unforced errors. He needed three sets to beat Nicolas Almagro and resurgent Lleyton Hewitt to reach the title match. Using that as a guide, this Open could be more wide-oren. Or, i Sunday is an indication, it mi~ht end up as another atldttion to that glassed-in trophy case . "A lot of' people have tried to say at times that he looks heatable, then he goes out and shows that he's not beatable," Blake said. "Then he goes into a Grand Slam and he plays even better."

For the second straight week, Frye (5-for-10, 42 yards) had a mental error and threw an interception.

All of the evenings were good except Thursday when it rained and that caused the tractor/truck pull to be carried over to Friday night. As for proceeds, the figures for the fair stood at $104,945, up almost $7,000 from last year, but less than the 2005 figure of $170,578. The total included gate receipts as well as season and membership tickets. Kenny Buckley, vice pres- J ident of the Fair Board, was pleased with the two new main events. "That was the largest crowd I've seen." he said of the Tough Track competition. The grandstand was full and fairgoers lined the fence watching as the trucks and dune buggies ran the track, jumped hurdles, and splashed into a pond in timed racing eliciting screaming and wild applause from the hund;·eds of specta· tors. "We'll detinitely have it back," he said. The rodeo, while not bringing in quite the crowd, was also received enthusiastically by those watching, particularly when the locals joined in the ·'bull-dogging with calves," said Buckley. Emerson Drive , making a return visit to the Meigs County Fair, had a sell-out crowd with the grandstand and all the reserved seats on the track full.
