Rutland Post Omce open;for busintss BY BEnt 5eRaENr BSERGENT@MYDAILYSENllNEL.COM RUTLAND - Nearly a year after it .was dosed due to "environmental hazards" the Rutland Post Office has reopened at its new location on Salem Street. The new offide opened its doors to customers this past Wednesday with an official dedication to be planned in the near future. ' 'Tm grateful we have it," Margaret Edwards, Rutland's postmaster said. Since the United States Postal Service closed the fanner location on Main Street, Edwards first worked out of Langsville until that branch dosed on May 25 and then at the Buchtel office. . Edwards isn't the only one who is grateful Rutland is once again operating with a post office. V~lage residents are also happy to see the post office back in action and in a brdlld-spanking-new building and all the convenience that provides. ''They seem to like it," Edwards said of the customers' feedback on the new facility which has the biggest parking lot in town with 12 spaces. The new building also has 295 post office boxes, updated equipment and has the smell of fresh paint and new everything. Also, customers are no long getting mail at the special boxes outside the Rutland Civic Center which will soon be removed. Last November officials with the USPS said it wa5 conceivable Rutland would have its new post office within a year and it did, with one month to spare. The old office on Main Street officially dosed on Nov. I of last year. As for how much the new building cost taxpayers, calls to the USPS were not immediately returned to The Daily Sentinel. Whatever the cost, the pellple seem to be happy to have a pieee of the village back in place, even if iCs sitting in a new place. "We just want pellple to know we're here and open for business," Edwards said.

The Cleveland School system's fleet fared the worst, with more than .58 percent of the buses inspected this year logging more than five problems, ranging from burnt out turn signals to cracked axles. . The patrol mandates that buses used to transport pupils be "maintained without any defects," at all . ' il50111teilolllas times. However, on average the 70 pighway patrol inspectors found one problem per bus, and about 700 of tl)e 22,600 school buses inspected since January 2006 had numerous problems. During the annual state review, inspectors note probJems rangi ng from more imioc uou s - dirty fl oors or missing d ~cal s - to soberi·ng safety concerns - leaking air-brake lines or tires lacking adequate tread. Even minor problems are taken seriously. said Lt. John · Boster, head of the patrol's Motor Vehicle Inspection Unit. Although the patrol can take action· against private bus operators such as contract operators or private schools, it has no authority over public school districts and the quality of maintenance programs varies from district to district, Boster said. ' Some districts operate buses year-round while others shut down for the summer, giving mechanics plenty oftime to get the buses ready for inspection. .

Iraqi investigation into a deadly shooting involving Blackwater USA security guards raised the number of Iraqis killed to 17 and found the gunfire was unwarranted, the government said Sunday. It also said the shootings amounted to a deliberate crime and recommended those involveo face trial. The Blackwater guards are accused of opening fire on Iraqi civilians in a main square in Baghdad on Sept. 16. They claimed they came u'nder fire ftrst. ' The Iraqi investigative committee, which was ordered by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, found that convoys from the Moyock, N.C.-based security company did not come under direct or indirect tire before the men shot up the intersection. "It was not hit even by a stone," government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said !na statement. The incident has outraged Iraqis and brought calls for an overhaul to the rules governing private contractors such as Blackwater, which provides .heavily armed security for U.S: diplomats serving in Baghdad. The three-member Iraqi panel led by Defense Minister Abdul-Qader al Obeidi determined that Blackwater guards sprayed western Baghdad's Nisoor Square with gunfire without provocation. The panel raised the casualty toll to 17 Iraqis killed and 23 wounded, as opposed to the 11 deaths Iraqi officials originally reported. On Thursday, Minister of State for Natiomil Security ' Sherwan al-Waili told The Associated- Press that the panel had determined 13 Iraqis had been killed. A parallel but unofficial investigation by the Interior Ministry also put the number at 17· AI-Dabbagh said the Cabinet would weigh the Iraqi findings with those of a · joint U.S.-Iraqi commission "and subsequently adopt the legal procedures to hold this company account<ible." The Associated Press reported Thursday that the . Iraqi panel's recommendations also would include that the company compensate the v-ictims. The;Iraqi panel is one or at least three investigations involving Americans. The joint U.S.-Iraqi commission also met for the first time Sunday to review American security operations after the shooting. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also dispatched a team to Baghdad, and retired veteran diplomat Stapleton Roy is leading a diplomatic review, along with a former State Department and intelligence official, Eric Boswell. The panel, led · by Patrick Kennedy, one of the most senior management experts in the U.S . foreign servi ce, was to present an interim report early this month. The Sept. 16 incidem was one of at least six involving deaths allegedly caused by Blackwater that authorities here have brought to the attention of the Americans. The joint commi ssion exchanged opinions about the shootings and agreed on a ·need to establish a direct mechanism for sharing information and to review several issues related 10 U.S. security operations, in IIIII embassy spokesw(lman · Mirembe Nantongo said. The panel chaired by the Iraqi defense minister and U.S . Embassy Deputy Chief of Mission , Patricia A. Butenis, also expressed "mutual commitment of the Iraqi government and the ·U.S. government to work together to evaluate issues of safety and security related to personal security detail operations in Iraq," according to a brief statemen1. The joint comm.ission is · expected to issue recommendations to both Baghdad and Washington on improving Iraqi and U.S. security procedures, with the ."goal of ensuring that personal security detail operations do not endanger public safety" ' and prevent similar incidents in the future. Across the Iraqi ·capital, bombings killed at least nine Iraqi s in three separate attacks, including one near Iran's. embassy, police said. The attacks started with an early morning explosion near a minibus carrying workers into central. Baghdad. Three people were killed in the roadside bombing, ,which .apparently targeted a police patrol, according to a police official who requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. The inside of the mangled minibus was soaked in blood, the metal hulk was pummeled .by shrdpnel and the windows were shattered, AP Television News footage · - showed. A half-hour later, in the predominantly Sunni neigh· borhood of Dora in so uthern Baghdad, a second roadside bomb targeting a U.S. patrol mi ssed its tl~rget , killing three Iraqi Givilians, police said.

Iraqi investigation into a deadly shooting involving Blackwater USA security guards raised the number of Iraqis killed to 17 and found the gunfire was unwarranted, the government said Sunday. It also said the shootings amounted to a deliberate crime and recommended those involveo face trial. The Blackwater guards are accused of opening fire on Iraqi civilians in a main square in Baghdad on Sept. 16. They claimed they came u'nder fire ftrst. ' The Iraqi investigative committee, which was ordered by Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, found that convoys from the Moyock, N.C.-based security company did not come under direct or indirect tire before the men shot up the intersection. "It was not hit even by a stone," government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said !na statement. The incident has outraged Iraqis and brought calls for an overhaul to the rules governing private contractors such as Blackwater, which provides .heavily armed security for U.S: diplomats serving in Baghdad. The three-member Iraqi panel led by Defense Minister Abdul-Qader al Obeidi determined that Blackwater guards sprayed western Baghdad's Nisoor Square with gunfire without provocation. The panel raised the casualty toll to 17 Iraqis killed and 23 wounded, as opposed to the 11 deaths Iraqi officials originally reported. On Thursday, Minister of State for Natiomil Security ' Sherwan al-Waili told The Associated- Press that the panel had determined 13 Iraqis had been killed. A parallel but unofficial investigation by the Interior Ministry also put the number at 17· AI-Dabbagh said the Cabinet would weigh the Iraqi findings with those of a · joint U.S.-Iraqi commission "and subsequently adopt the legal procedures to hold this company account<ible." The Associated Press reported Thursday that the . Iraqi panel's recommendations also would include that the company compensate the v-ictims. The;Iraqi panel is one or at least three investigations involving Americans. The joint U.S.-Iraqi commission also met for the first time Sunday to review American security operations after the shooting. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also dispatched a team to Baghdad, and retired veteran diplomat Stapleton Roy is leading a diplomatic review, along with a former State Department and intelligence official, Eric Boswell. The panel, led · by Patrick Kennedy, one of the most senior management experts in the U.S . foreign servi ce, was to present an interim report early this month. The Sept. 16 incidem was one of at least six involving deaths allegedly caused by Blackwater that authorities here have brought to the attention of the Americans. The joint commi ssion exchanged opinions about the shootings and agreed on a ·need to establish a direct mechanism for sharing information and to review several issues related 10 U.S. security operations, in IIIII embassy spokesw(lman · Mirembe Nantongo said. The panel chaired by the Iraqi defense minister and U.S . Embassy Deputy Chief of Mission , Patricia A. Butenis, also expressed "mutual commitment of the Iraqi government and the ·U.S. government to work together to evaluate issues of safety and security related to personal security detail operations in Iraq," according to a brief statemen1. The joint comm.ission is · expected to issue recommendations to both Baghdad and Washington on improving Iraqi and U.S. security procedures, with the ."goal of ensuring that personal security detail operations do not endanger public safety" ' and prevent similar incidents in the future. Across the Iraqi ·capital, bombings killed at least nine Iraqi s in three separate attacks, including one near Iran's. embassy, police said. The attacks started with an early morning explosion near a minibus carrying workers into central. Baghdad. Three people were killed in the roadside bombing, ,which .apparently targeted a police patrol, according to a police official who requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. The inside of the mangled minibus was soaked in blood, the metal hulk was pummeled .by shrdpnel and the windows were shattered, AP Television News footage · - showed.

' Bea Ilia Edison Johnson Johnnie Johnson· Ohio suing contractors over · · shoddy bridge painting projects · CLEVELAND (AP) - The Ohio Depart!llent of Transportation is suing 35 contractors who the state alleges cut corners on highway bridge painting projects and bribed inspectors with cash and gifts. · The department hopes to recoup the money needed to, repaint close to 200 bridges statewide now bleeding rust just years after they were fainted, said Catherine Perkins, the department's chie legal counsel. To preserve the long-term safety of the structures, the bridges must be repainted at a cost two to three! times the $30 million s(lent on the defective jobs; Perkins said. Steel bridges may rust and deteriorate without a proper paint job, she said . . So far, the agency has recouped $2.1 million, with court judgments for another $10 million. Eight inspectors and seven contractors in northern Ohio have .been convicted of giving inspectors cash and trips to Las Vegas and Florida. One contractor and one inspector were sentenced to prison . The corruption was primarily concentrated in Cuyahoga and Lake counties, although the shodd~ work and bribes were found across the state, satd R1chard Blake, a former assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted many of the cases. The FBI's Cleveland office began investigating in 1998 after a bridge painter from outside Ohio told authorities about three transportation inspectors he had bribed, agent Christine Oliver said. One of the inspectors then informed against others. To correctly paint a bridge, co~tractors must blast .';lff ;~II visible oil, grease, rust and pam! and then tnple-pamt the steel wtth coats of pnmer, epoxy and urethane, according to court documents.

In return, they n;ceived cash, vacations steaks, dinners and seats at sporting events. Cont~actors shared tips among themselves ab~ut which inspectors were approachable. "It wouldn't be a federal case if it was just some steaks or some lobsters," Blake said. "The problem is when inspectors submit false reports to ODOT, saying ~h~t work was done when it was not. They are the public s eyes and ears." · · After l~ai'ning of the payments, the dep~rtment a~d an . ODOT-hired expert inspected 181 bndges pamted between 1997 and 2003. . About 80 percent were in unacceptable conditions, Blake said ..Of those, 80 percent were "really bad." Attorneys for two contractors blame~ transport.at.ion inspectors for the pervasive fraud, saymg the offiCials "shook down" bridge painters and created an atmosphere of institutional corruption. . · "These companies are populated by .people who want to work hard, get up and go to work every day and do a job " said attorney James Wooley, who represented the Cle'veland-area Atlas Central Corp. "If you didn't have corrupt public officials, none of this would have happened." . .

' Bea Ilia Edison Johnson Johnnie Johnson· Ohio suing contractors over · · shoddy bridge painting projects · CLEVELAND (AP) - The Ohio Depart!llent of Transportation is suing 35 contractors who the state alleges cut corners on highway bridge painting projects and bribed inspectors with cash and gifts. · The department hopes to recoup the money needed to, repaint close to 200 bridges statewide now bleeding rust just years after they were fainted, said Catherine Perkins, the department's chie legal counsel. To preserve the long-term safety of the structures, the bridges must be repainted at a cost two to three! times the $30 million s(lent on the defective jobs; Perkins said. Steel bridges may rust and deteriorate without a proper paint job, she said . . So far, the agency has recouped $2.1 million, with court judgments for another $10 million. Eight inspectors and seven contractors in northern Ohio have .been convicted of giving inspectors cash and trips to Las Vegas and Florida. One contractor and one inspector were sentenced to prison . The corruption was primarily concentrated in Cuyahoga and Lake counties, although the shodd~ work and bribes were found across the state, satd R1chard Blake, a former assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted many of the cases. The FBI's Cleveland office began investigating in 1998 after a bridge painter from outside Ohio told authorities about three transportation inspectors he had bribed, agent Christine Oliver said. One of the inspectors then informed against others. To correctly paint a bridge, co~tractors must blast .';lff ;~II visible oil, grease, rust and pam! and then tnple-pamt the steel wtth coats of pnmer, epoxy and urethane, according to court documents.

In return, they n;ceived cash, vacations steaks, dinners and seats at sporting events. Cont~actors shared tips among themselves ab~ut which inspectors were approachable. "It wouldn't be a federal case if it was just some steaks or some lobsters," Blake said. "The problem is when inspectors submit false reports to ODOT, saying ~h~t work was done when it was not. They are the public s eyes and ears." · · After l~ai'ning of the payments, the dep~rtment a~d an . ODOT-hired expert inspected 181 bndges pamted between 1997 and 2003. . About 80 percent were in unacceptable conditions, Blake said ..Of those, 80 percent were "really bad." Attorneys for two contractors blame~ transport.at.ion inspectors for the pervasive fraud, saymg the offiCials "shook down" bridge painters and created an atmosphere of institutional corruption. . · "These companies are populated by .people who want to work hard, get up and go to work every day and do a job " said attorney James Wooley, who represented the Cle'veland-area Atlas Central Corp. "If you didn't have corrupt public officials, none of this would have happened." . .

The trio discussed the · ~roject and toured a potential building site along the Ohio River. At the time, Rashnikov said he hoped to have the pennits by November.

The mill, which would melt steel slabs to be customized for automakers, would create I ,000 jobs in Scioto County.

Last month, Gov. Ted Strickland and Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher met with Russian billionaire Victor Rashnikov, who controls MMK. The trio discussed the · ~roject and toured a potential building site along the Ohio River. At the time, Rashnikov said he hoped to have the pennits by November. The approval process usually takes months, but state officials are trying to expedite the process, the environmental agency said. The mill, which would melt steel slabs to be customized for automakers, would create I ,000 jobs in Scioto County. The Ohio River location is desirable because of its proximity to auto manufacturing operations in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, but MMK said it also was considering a site in Quebec, Canada.

Junior Seau finally gave in to tl]e temptation. Now he's ready to pay the price. In a move more suited to an 18-year-old college player than an 18-year veteran like Seau, he raised the ball high while returning an interception in Sunday's 3417 win over the Cleveland Browns, New England's fifth one-sided win in five games this season. "It was a fun time and, obviously, I'm going to get reprimanded," Seau said. He had two of New England's 'three interceptions and Tom Brady threw for three touchdowns, tying an NFL record with at least three in each of his first five games. The Patriots became the fourth team to start a season with five wins by at least 17 points, although Sunday's margin was their smallest.

Browns 34-17 behind • BY HOWARD ULMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS FOXBOROUGH. Mass. - The Patriots have had plenty to celebrate this season. Junior Seau finally gave in to tl]e temptation. Now he's ready to pay the price. In a move more suited to an 18-year-old college player than an 18-year veteran like Seau, he raised the ball high while returning an interception in Sunday's 3417 win over the Cleveland Browns, New England's fifth one-sided win in five games this season. "It was a fun time and, obviously, I'm going to get reprimanded," Seau said. He had two of New England's 'three interceptions and Tom Brady threw for three touchdowns, tying an NFL record with at least three in each of his first five games. The Patriots became the fourth team to start a season with five wins by at least 17 points, although Sunday's margin was their smallest. Coach Bill Belichick, an anti-showboating advocate, finds mistakes to correct no maller how well the Patriots play. All he has to do this time is watch the play by Seau, who actually thought about lateraling. "Coach wouldn't have liked that either," he said.

But so far, they've been behind for just 12:36 this season - and they followed that 7-3 deficit against Buffalo with 35 straight poin~s in a 38-7 win. The Browns (2-3) had shown promise after years of mediocrity. But they lost running back Jamal Lewis for the game with an injured right foot after he rushed for II yards on their first play. Wide receiver Joe Jurevicius hurt his knee. Coach Romeo Crennel gave no prognosis. "The score affected our play calling more than anything," Crennel said. The passing attack couldn't pick up the slack as Derek Anderson threw three interceptions in the first half, two on consecutive offensive plays by Cleveland, that led to 14 points. · Twice in the fourth quar- . ter, the Browns cut the deficit to 10 points .

(AP) - Ben Mauk's passing and opportunistic defense. It's been an unbeatable combination for No. 20 Cincinnati: Mauk threw two of his three touchdowns in a 19second span late in the third guarter and Cincinnati forced lour turnovers, including a game-saving interception by linebacker Ryan Manalac with I: 19 to play, as the Bearcats defeated No. 21 ~utgers 28-23 on Saturday night. Mauk threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Dominick Goodman _in the first half and found Marcus Barnett on a 2yard toss and Marshwan Gilyard on a 27-yard pass in the lightning quick thirdquarter spree that helped Cincinnati (6-0, 1-0 Big East) send Rutgers (3-2, 0-1) to its second straight defeat. The Scarlet Knights had a chance to pull the game out in the final minutes as they drove from their own 20 to the Cincinnati 17. On a second-and-3, Manalac stepped in front of a Mike Tee! pass to Tim Brown and sealed the Golf fromPageBl and Gold, received nothing but praise from MHS coach Tony Dugan after such a gutsy performance. "'Stev~n played really well and it's a shame that he couldn't advance to state," Dugan said. "He's been a vital part o{ this program over the last four seasons and I' ll hate to see him go. "However, he made one great run here at the end and should be proud of what he has accomplished during his time at Meigs."

"We know what we have to do. We know who's tile boss around here, . and we know 'how much we love Joe Torre," Damon said. "We battled, we got some big hits, and a big pitching performance from Phillip Jiughes ." In a game that mirroerd the Yankees' comeback win with an interception. Teet, who hurt his thumb in the first quarter according to coach Greg Schiano. was visibly upset after the game. He said the injury did not bother him. Safety Haruki Nakamura and linebacker Andre Revels also had clutch interceptiOns for the Bearcats, who have now forced 25 turnovers in their best start since going 80 in 1954. Devin McCourty returned an interception 36 yards for a touchdown, Ray Rice scored on a 1-yard run and Jermey Ito kicked three field goals for Rutgers, which lost consecutive games for the first time since the end of the 2005 season. The Bearcats embarrassed Rutgers 30-11 last year in knocking then No. 7 Rutgers from the unbeaten ranks. They've won nine in a row since that win. Mauk tinished 20-of-37 for 257 yards. He also threw an interception and lost a fumble in the fourth quarter, but his defense saved him, forcing a Rutgers punt. Gordon crossed the finish line for his sixth win of the season. He led just one lap - the last one - to complete a season sweep at Talladega. Johnson ·finished second, Dave Blaney was third in the best finish this year for a Toyota driver. Title contender Denny Hamlin was fourth and was followed by Ryan Newman, who was leading late in his Dodge, and Mears. Chase driver Kurt Busch was seventh and Stewart, who was in position to win this race very late, had two strategic moves . backfire and was shuffled back to eighth. This race blew open the Chase for the championship standings, as Gordon and Johnson positioned themselves for a Hendrick battle toward the title.

Then st\ldy the auction and decide what you would lead agair~st SB\Ien diamonds. North's four no-trump was A001an Key Card Blac*wood, agreeing diamonds as trumps. South's five . spades showed two key caros (two aces, or one ace and the trump king) and the trump queen. Doubling a free~ bid slam lor penal~es is mathematically unwise. If you turn, in this case, plus 50 into plus 100, it is better than nothing. But lhfee bad things might happen. First, they might make the slam, when you would be minus. 1,630 . instead of minus 1,440. They might redouble and make it. when you would be minus 1,960 instead of minus 1,440. And, worst of all, lttey might run from the slam you can beat into one that you.cannot defeat. Note that this applies here. North-South are laydown 1or sewn nohump. Then, inste8d of plus 50 you would be minus 1,520. . East knew that a dOuble would ask his partner to lead a club, the first suit bid by the dummy. But ·he was afraid that the . opponents, when forewarned, would run to seven no-trump, against which East had no sure defense. UnfortUnately West, because his partner had not ctou~ect. thought thai he could not be V(lid in clubs. So West led the heart jack, with disastrous consequences. South drew trumps and claimed. West, until he noticed that seven notrump was unbeatable, blamed East lor not doubling. Then he realiz~ he was wrong. His heart lead was so unlikely to help. A club could have besn best anq should hBVe been chosen. G BESIDES · THAT. IT'S V .C. YOUNG I l l $195/person (double occupancy) E xt. 1100 . - 5N.\.

Then st\ldy the auction and decide what you would lead agair~st SB\Ien diamonds. North's four no-trump was A001an Key Card Blac*wood, agreeing diamonds as trumps. South's five . spades showed two key caros (two aces, or one ace and the trump king) and the trump queen. Doubling a free~ bid slam lor penal~es is mathematically unwise. If you turn, in this case, plus 50 into plus 100, it is better than nothing. But lhfee bad things might happen. First, they might make the slam, when you would be minus. 1,630 . instead of minus 1,440. They might redouble and make it. when you would be minus 1,960 instead of minus 1,440. And, worst of all, lttey might run from the slam you can beat into one that you.cannot defeat. Note that this applies here. North-South are laydown 1or sewn nohump. Then, inste8d of plus 50 you would be minus 1,520. . East knew that a dOuble would ask his partner to lead a club, the first suit bid by the dummy. But ·he was afraid that the . opponents, when forewarned, would run to seven no-trump, against which East had no sure defense. UnfortUnately West, because his partner had not ctou~ect. thought thai he could not be V(lid in clubs. So West led the heart jack, with disastrous consequences. South drew trumps and claimed. West, until he noticed that seven notrump was unbeatable, blamed East lor not doubling. Then he realiz~ he was wrong. His heart lead was so unlikely to help. A club could have besn best anq should hBVe been chosen. G BESIDES · THAT. IT'S V .C. YOUNG I l l $195/person (double occupancy) E xt. 1100 . - 5N.\.
