Sarah Sweeney, who wrapped up her first year as pool manager, remarked that she thought the summer went really well. “Despite the weather in June, I really do think (attendance) picked up in July,” Sweeney said. “I think we started some new things that we’re looking forward to for next year, such as the water volleyball league.” Pool staff built their own water volleyball net earlier this summer and are in the process of raising the funds necessary to purchase a real one. “I’m pretty sure that we’ll still be trying to raise that money next summer,” Sweeney said. “We’re definitely not at our goal yet.” Other events, such as Pirate Nights and Michael Proudfit Night were also popular and well attended. “I think (the two Pirate Nights) had a good turnout, especially the second one. We had good weather and we had it at night swim,” Sweeney said. “We had a good crowd for Michael Proudfit Night as well.

While there was a lot to see and do, one of the highlights of the event was a pair of parachute jumps by Bill Wilt of DuBois. Wilt also performed a pair of jumps at the festival when it was last held two years ago. Wilt made his first jump just before 10 a.m., landing near the runway as members of the Crystal Fire Department put on a pa- triotic display by crossing jets of water from their hoses to create a rainbow near a large American flag. Following his first jump of the day, the youthful 67-year-old explained that he has been jumping out of airplanes for nearly 50 years. “I have 1,100 sport parachute jumps plus another 71 military jumps,” Wilt said, explaining that he got his start in the Air Force back in 1967. “I was in a special branch of air traffic control called combat control. You had to be jump qualified to be able to work behind enemy lines and get there somehow,” Wilt said. “I had great expe- See Festival, Page 3 ECCSS Summer Festival well attended By Becky Polaski Staff Writer Photos by Amy Cherry On Friday evening a sellout crowd of over 500 people gathered for the 2015 St. Marys Area Chamber of Commerce and Farmers National Bank Annual Wing Fling.

SEE PAGE 6 Saturday was a busy day at Elk County Catholic High School. A number of people took advantage of the warm, sunny weather and stopped by the inaugural ECCSS Summer Festival, which was held at the school from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Some came only for the be.colorful 5K run/walk, while others showed up to watch one of the various entertainers that took to the stage throughout the day. There were also people who came to browse the wide variety of food and vendor booths that were set up both in the small parking lot outside of the school’s cafeteria, as well as in the cafeteria itself. As the event slowly drew to a close on Saturday evening, Elk County Catholic High School principal Sandy Florig remarked that everyone was pleased with how it had turned out. “It has exceeded our expectations,” Florig said of the festival. “With it being the first one, we had no idea what to expect. We had the air show this morning to compete against and college kids going back this weekend, so it was a good guess on everybody’s part how much food to buy, how many drinks to have ready, and so on. I think everybody did an excellent job.” The festival kicked off with See ECCSS, Page 3 Planning underway for time capsule ceremony By Joseph Bell Daily Press Editor RIDGWAY – Organizers are hard at work preparing for a time capsule ceremony at Elk County’s war memorial in Ridgway in front of the Elk County Courthouse along Main Street. When the memorial was placed in memory of all veterans of all wars, a time capsule was buried behind it on Saturday, May 26, 1990. The capsule is to be opened this year in September during a ceremony on the courthouse lawn. A new 25-year capsule will then take its place. A definitive date and time has not yet been finalized. Landscaping was recently re- vamped in the area of the memorial as organizers begin their final preparations for the event. “They did a beautiful job with the new landscaping, it looks excellent,” said Elk County Veterans Affairs Director Leslie Neal. “When you drive by our courthouse now, it is just beautiful and it’s what it should be.” Craig Singer, the former director of Veterans Affairs for Elk County, was one of the organizers 25 years ago for the initial time capsule. “One of the things we did last time was we put prices in, gallon of See Ceremony, Page 3 Photo by Joseph Bell A veterans time capsule placed May 26, 1990 is tentatively scheduled to be opened in September in front of the Elk County Courthouse along Main Street in Ridgway. 2 The Daily Press Monday, August 24, 2015 Faces & Places Wing Fling, American Spirit of Aviation Festival, & ECCSS Summer Festival Photo by Harlan Beagley Stephanie Young, shown far left, visits the St. Marys Area Chamber of Commerce booth during Friday evening’s annual Wing Fling.

As part of the 2015 Wing Fling Redneck Edition, Dave Stauffer and Michelle Pontious, claimed the top award for best costume. The pair arrived in true redneck style as Stauffer drove a lawn tractor pulling a wagon with Pontious inside along with a sign reading ‘She Thinks My Tractor Is Sexy’. Both sported various camouflage clothing attire along with redneck teeth mouthpieces. Pontious donned beer can rollers in her hair, denim overalls, and carried her redneck baby in a sling. The pair also claimed an award last year for their themed attire at the event.

Officials in the Saltsburg volunteer fire department in Indiana County said the single-engine aircraft experienced mechan- ical difficulties and was losing fuel pressure. So the pilot set the aircraft down in the Kiskiminetas River near Saltsburg at about 1:30 p.m. Sunday in a spot that officials said was about 5 feet deep. Chief John Dice said the pilot wasn’t hurt and was able to reach shore.

I’m going to let them take the lead on whatever activities they want to run and give them ownership of what they want to do.” Sweeney indicat- ed that they averaged around 350 patrons using the facility on any given day this summer. “On a relatively good day, it averages about 150, and 300 on a really good day,” Sweeney said. “August is our slow month, so we only had about 50-100. Today, we have a pretty good turnout for the last day.” Sweeney added that she has enjoyed getting to know members of the community as they visited the pool throughout the summer. “It’s a beginning, something to build off of,” Sweeney said of her first year as pool manager. “It did go really well for me. I really enjoyed it.” ECCSS Continued from Page 1 the color run at 10 a.m. and featured performances by Rodney “Bubba” Brennen - The One Man Polka Band, Mitch and Al, April School of Dance, Tri-County Tang Soo Do Karate, Acoustics by Chet, the ECCHS jazz band, and The Moore Brothers. Pete Winklbauer also held two “Brush and Blush” sessions where he walked small groups through painting their own watercolor landscape. A public Mass held in the school’s chapel at 4 p.m. drew such a large crowd that it ended up being standing room only. Florig noted that the only activity that did not happen as planned was the Mickey/Minnie Co-Ed Volleyball Tournament, which ended up being cancelled ahead of the festival due to a lack of participants. “We’d like to see that work next year,” Florig said. Florig added that she could not say enough Festival Continued from Page 1 riences and great training in the Air Force. You don’t hear of the Air Force having too many parachutists, but I was one of them.” Wilt also noted that his first jump Saturday morning was also only his 12th of the year as other interests have occupied much of his time lately. “I had a great career parachuting. I’m retired from working for the electric company, but I’ve just been blessed,” he said. “I’ve had good health and I’ve only had three malfunctions to where I rode a reserve parachute to the ground safely, but I’ve learned a lot from all the experience.” He also enjoys sharing what he has learned with others. “I’ve done several air shows and different community events,” Wilt said. “I’ve done assembly programs at schools. I primarily gear it for elementary students so I can teach them a lot about aviation, aerodynamics, wind, weather, and all that.” He often jumps in Grove City or on the other side of Harrisburg, where he has family. “I have family living down there, so there’s another jump club that I jump at there often,” Wilt said. After completing a jump, it takes Wilt roughly 20 minutes to pack up his parachute and get everything ready to jump again. about the teamwork displayed by everyone involved in helping to make the event a success, and she encouraged anyone with suggestions or new ideas to contact herself, ECCSS president Sam MacDonald, or a member of the PTO. “We’re always looking for new ideas,” Florig said. “If anybody has any critique or things we could have done better, it always helps to have a lot of input from the community.” lon of milk, just a bunch of different things to see what the difference would be in 25 years,” he said. This time around, organizers plan to replicate that list in accordance with today’s prices; also planned to be placed in the time capsule is a list of the populations by municipality, photographs of officers from service organizations, a group photo of elected county officials, a newspaper published on that day, and others. Neal said she is seeking photographs of any living Elk County veteran, preferably in their uniform if they have one. Participants are asked to have their information written on the back of the photo, including name, branch of service, time served, place of residence, and rank. Veterans may drop the photos off at the county’s Veterans Affairs office located on the first floor of the Elk County Courthouse Annex along Center Street in Ridgway. “It has be living veterans because the time capsule is for what’s going on in the day,” she said. “Burial detail and service organizations are invited to place something in the capsule in addition to a photo of their officers. “I’d also like to see the POW flag and American flag JOBof the day Photo by Joseph Bell Landscaping was recently revamped in the area of the Elk County war memorial as organizers begin their final preparations for a September event that will see the unveiling of a 25-year old time capsule and the placement of a new time capsule. that are out at the war memorial now be placed in this time capsule.

Regardless of Kane's status, one Democrat and two Republicans have already declared their candidacy, six months before the deadline for nomination petitions. Others are waiting — and watching. Kane, who made history in 2012 by becoming the first woman and the first Democrat to be elected as the state's top law-enforcement official, has said she plans to seek re-election even though Democrats including Gov. Tom Wolf have called on her to step down. But for now, she is defending herself against criminal charges including perjury, false swearing and obstruction. Uncertainty over Kane's future, including a potential trial that could spill over into next year, may complicate the endorsements for attorney general the Democratic Party will consider early next year. It also is throwing open the doors to a potential political free-for-all, but so far it has not attracted big-city prosecutors whose name are most familiar to voters, such as district attorneys Stephen Zappala of Allegheny County or Seth Williams of Philadelphia. Kane, who says she has done nothing wrong, is "a wounded candidate under the best of circumstances," said Marcel Groen, a Montgomery County lawyer who is unopposed for election next month as the state Democratic Party's chairman. "It's a sad situation. I think she should have taken a leave of absence." Kane contends that the office has run efficiently under her leadership: In the last 15 months, her office has announced more than 200 child predator arrests and more than 1,100 drug arrests, as well as a settlement with electricity suppliers to return $2.4 million to consumers, she said this month. "As you can see, and as any mother of two young boys can you tell you, we are experts at multitasking," she said. Republicans hoping to recapture the office after only four years "would love nothing more than having that issue ... play out in a general election," Groen said of Kane's legal problems. "It may or may not be fair, but it is real." A battle over the Republican nomination is already heating up between two Montgomery County legislators — Sen. John Rafferty and Rep. Todd Stephens, who threw his hat into the ring Thursday. Rafferty, a fourth-term senator, is the Transportation Committee chairman who championed the $2 billionplus transportation improvement program approved in 2013. Before running for the Senate, he served as a deputy attorney general with responsibility for the criminal law division and grand jury probes. Rafferty campaigned briefly for the office before the 2012 election but dropped out when then-Gov. Tom Corbett instead endorsed Cumberland County District Attorney David Freed, whom Kane ultimately defeated. Stephens, who is serving his third term in the House, is contrasting his record as a county and federal prosecutor for nearly a decade with Rafferty's more limited courtroom experience. "Now, more than ever, we need an experienced prosecutor as our attorney general," he says in a campaign video. Rafferty says his experience as a lawyer, legislator and businessman has prepared him for the job. "My strong record of being an effective leader and my prosecutorial experience earned me the endorsements of the Pennsylvania State Troopers Association, State Fraternal Order of Police and the State Professional Firefighters Association," he said. Besides Kane, the only declared Democratic candidate so far is Jack Stollsteimer, a lawyer and former prosecutor in Delaware County whose only previous campaign experience was an unsuccessful bid for state House in 1992. He works for an auditing company that helps states return unclaimed property to its owners. Many Democratic insiders say Montgomery County Commissioner Chairman Josh Shapiro is likely to run, although he won't confirm it. The former state representative is running this year for re-election to his county job and is Wolf's appointee as chairman of the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency. "I am focused on my two jobs right now," Shapiro said. John Morganelli, Northampton County's district attorney for 24 years, says he is considering running for attorney general a fourth time after losing primaries in 2000 and 2004 and the general election in 2008. Morganelli supported Kane in 2012, but now says her missteps have hurt the party's prospects. "It's going to be really hard for any Democrat to win this race," he said. ___ Peter Jackson is the Capitol correspondent for The Associated Press in Harrisburg.

Guest Commentary Canned Pleasure: The Thrill of the Kill Would you like to go to Zimbabwe, kill and behead a lion, just like that dentist from Minnesota or the physician from Pittsburgh recently did? They paid about $50,000 each for that experience How about a black rhino, an endangered species? A professional hunter from Dallas, Texas, won a $350,000 lottery to stalk and kill that animal in southern Namibia. In the 1950s, there were about 70,000 black rhinos. There are now fewer than 2,400, most of them killed off by the human predators. If giraffes are your thing, you can go to South Africa and, like a woman from Idaho, kill the world’s tallest animal, pose with it, and post it onto your Facebook page. But, let’s say your anemic bank account can’t provide you with the funds for a two-week safari, because that rebel flag you just bought to mount on your broken-down pick-up cost too much. For a few thousand dollars, Great White Hunters—complete with rented guides, dogs, and guns or bows—can go into a fenced-in area and shoot an exotic species. In most canned hunts, the animals have been bred to be killed, have little fear of humans, and are often lured to a feeding station or herded toward the hunter to allow a close-range kill. In some of the preserves, animals are drugged or tied to stakes. Some of the “big cats,” recorded in investigative undercover videos by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Fund for Animals were declawed, placed in cages, and then released; the terrified and non-aggressive animals were then killed within a few yards of their prisons; some were killed while in their cages. For less than $3,000 you can go to Snyder County, Pa., and kill an elk, a deer, or a wild boar. You don’t even need a hunting license or worry about hunting out of season. The animals are fenced in on a private preserve. The club recently placed full-page ads in local newspapers, and promises that for your $1,000 to $3,000 thrill, you get a guaranteed success, lodging, meals, and even a color photo of you and what is euphemistically known as a trophy. If pheasants are your thing, you can head out to the Rolling Rock Club in Ligonier, Pa. This is where Dick Cheney and some of his shooting buddies stood and killed more than 400 just-released birds, which they blasted onto their dinner plates for a lead-scented meal. In the afternoon, having hardly raised a bead of sweat, the good ole boys slaughtered dozens of equally tame mallards that had been hand-raised and shoved in front of waiting shotguns for the massacre. By the time Cheney flew out of the area, the mallards were plucked and vacuum-packed, ready for flight aboard the taxpayerfunded Air Force 2. The pheasant hunt was a year after the Mighty Dick sent shotgun pellets into the face of a 78-year-old hunting companion, whom he thought was a quail. Prefer pigeons? Although they’re not a “canned hunt,” there are still a half-dozen target shoots in southeastern Pennsylvania, where club officials release the birds within 20 yards of contestants, making a kill even easier than hitting metal ducks at a carnival’s shooting gallery. You can’t even eat the pigeons—by the time you pick the shotgun pellets from the bird, there’s no meat left. Many of the animals on canned hunts are surplus animals bought from dealers who buy cast-off animals from zoos and circuses; the animals sold to the preserves are often aged and arthritic. Dozens of preserves have bought black bears, zebras, giraffes, lions, boars, and just about any species of animal the client could want, solely to be killed, photographed, and then skinned, stuffed, and mounted. Most “kills” on the “farms” are from animals bleeding out. Animals suffer from minutes to hours, says Heidi Prescott, senior vice-president of the Humane Society of the United States. Canned hunting, says Prescott, “is about as sporting as shooting a puppy in pet store window.” Most sportsmen agree with her. The concept of the “fair chase” is embedded into hunter culture. The Boone & Crockett Club and the Pope and Young Club (bowhunters), two of the three primary organizations that rate trophy kills, refuse to accept applications from persons who bagged their “trophy” on a canned hunt. The Safari Club does allow persons to seek recognition, but only under limitations that most preserves can’t meet. These pretend-hunters have dozens of reasons why they do what they do. The word “conservation” often appears dripping from their meat-filled lips. Some claim they are doing it to conserve wildlife by eliminating the weakest among the species. But, since animals have done rather well at preserving the balance of nature, why would humans want to alter it? The big-game safari killers, who can afford a southern African hunt that costs more than the yearly wages of most Americans, say that the fees go to conservation efforts to save the animals. If that’s the reason, why not just take that huge roll of 100s, donate it to the preserves, take a tax deduction and get a suitable-forframing color photo of a living animal? Whatever their reasons to mask their recreation, there is only one reason why they do what they do. They enjoy massaging a phallic symbol and taking a life. – Walter Brasch, an awardwinning journalist, is the author of 20 books; the most recent one is Fracking Pennsylvania. He also believes in shooting only inanimate objects, especially clay pigeons, which he misses more than he hits. Today in History Today is Monday, August 24, the 236th day of 2015.

Police in Armstrong County said the crash between a sedan and a sport utility vehicle occurred shortly before 3 a.m. Sunday on Route 28/66 in Manor Township. The sedan driver, Gregory Johns, 46, of Worthington; the SUV driver, Alex Davis, 21, of McGrann; and SUV passenger Francis Danahey Jr., 27, of Verona, were all pronounced dead at the scene, state police said. The Pittsburgh PostGazette reported that another SUV passenger was flown to UPMC Presbyterian with what the coroner’s office reported as severe injuries. “We definitely know that one of the two vehi- cles was going the wrong way,” Chief Deputy Coroner Robert Bellas told the paper. “This is inexplicable as to why that happened.” He said the Route 85 interchange is well marked and not confusing and there is no history of other crashes along that stretch due to vehicles traveling the wrong way. State police were called about a “dark colored” vehicle seen traveling the wrong way in the minutes before the crash. Both vehicles involved were black, Bellas said. Bellas also said there were no tire tracks in the grass median, indicating one of the vehicles didn’t get into the wrong lane by crossing the median. State police said investigators are trying to determine which vehicle was traveling in the wrong direction. The crash prompted closure of the highway for about six hours, emergency dispatchers said. New Mexicans say they dished out world’s longest tamale BELEN, N.M. (AP) — A group of people in New Mexico say they cooked the world’s longest tamale Saturday morning. Luis Hernandez of the ABQ West Chamber of Commerce says that a team of more than 30 chefs at Viva II, a three-day celebration of the state’s heritage, assembled a 116foot. 7-inch long tamale at the Valencia County fairgrounds in Belen. Organizers say the ingredients, which were provided by Bueno Foods, included 120 pounds of masa and 50 pounds of green chile. A local manufacturer of home improvement material has also designed a special steamer out of aluminum to cook the tamale in. Hernandez says the team plans to submit all the required documentation to Guinness World Records to get official recognition for the achievement. According to Guinness World Records, the longest tamale assembled was in Cancun, Mexico, in 2011 and measured a little longer than 66 feet. ST.

Those against PennEast’s proposal said during the mile-long march they’re concerned the pipeline would badly damage the landscape and natural resources in the region, and lower property values. “The people of Pennsylvania and New Jersey are showing they are unified in their message to PennEast: Go home, we don’t want your pipeline,” said Maya van Rossum, who leads the nonprofit Delaware Riverkeeper Network. “It’s also a message to politicians and regulators. They have to decide whether they want Dorothy Clesi of Oil City and by a brother, Thomas (Barbara) Ochs of Jamestown. She is also aunt to 11 nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents and her stepmother, she was preceded in death by a brother during WWII, Robert Ochs, a sister, Mildred, and by a brother-inlaw, Joseph Manfrey. A Mass of Christian Burial for Sr. Roberta Ochs will be celebrated at noon on Wednesday, Aug. 26, 2015 at St. Mary’s Church, Church Street, St. Marys, Pa. with Fr. Daniel Wolfel, O.S.B. and Fr.

She was born on December 17, 1933 in Lucinda, a daughter of Albert A. and Elizabeth Schmader Ochs. She was baptized, confirmed and educated, in both elementary and high school, at St. Joseph Parish in Lucinda. Baptized Elsie Ann, Sr. Roberta grew up among six siblings, four sisters and two brothers. She entered religious life in June 1952 after graduating from high school. She made her first vows in July of 1954, and her final vows in July of 1957. After entering the monastery, Sr. Roberta pursued her studies to become a teacher. After receiving her B.S. in secondary education from Villanova University in 1961, and a Master’s Degree from Duquesne University in 1976, Sr. Roberta taught in both grade school and high school. Her greatest love was teaching music and directing choirs. Through the years her students gifted their parents, fellow parishioners, and the local townspeople with lively and enjoyable concerts that filled all hearts with joy and happiness.

DATE ADDED BARB & JACK OWNERS SAINT MARYS SHOWROOM 481 BRUSSELLS ST. OPEN DAILY 834-4415 A Family Fire Safety Tip From The Johnsonburg Fire Department Test Your Smoke Alarm Monthly WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s double trouble for the National Zoo after its adult female panda gave birth to twins. The cubs arrived about five hours apart Saturday. Panda mom Mei Xiang (may-SHONG) gave birth to the first cub at 5:35 p.m. and a second at 10:07 p.m., the zoo said. If the cubs survive, they would be the 17-year-old panda’s third and fourth surviving offspring. Mei Xiang’s first cub, Tai Shan, was born in 2005 and returned to China in 2010. Her second cub, Bao Bao, turns 2-years-old Sunday and still lives at the zoo. The new additions mean that for the first time the zoo has five pandas in residence. In addition to Bao Bao, Mei Xiang and the new cubs, the zoo is also home to an adult male panda named Tian Tian. In the past, the zoo has never had more than three pandas at one time. Zoo director Dennis Kelly said at an evening news conference following the first cub’s birth that he was “so happy, so pleased, so excited.” The zoo’s chief veterinarian Don Neiffer was also asked about the possibility of a second cub. In 2013, when Mei Xiang gave birth to Bao Bao, she also gave birth to a stillborn cub. Asked about the possibility of a second cub this time around, Neiffer said that during an ultrasound earlier this week he did see “two areas that made me excited.” KORB MONUMENTS Since 1901 1-800-752-1601 Mary Petrucci 814-781-3063 www.korbmonuments.com 6 The Daily Press Monday, August 24, 2015 Heline doubles to lift Lewisberry past Taylors 9-8 SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT (AP) — Jaden Henline hit a tworun double in the sixth inning to give Lewisberry, Pennsylvania, a 9-8 victory over Taylors, South Carolina, on Sunday night in the Little League World Series. Lewisberry, two hours from Williamsport, won with the three-run inning after squandered a 6-0 fourth-inning lead. Henline hit the walk-off double after allowing four two-out runs in the top of the inning. Lewisberry advanced to Wednesday’s winner’s bracket final against Pearland, Texas. Kaden Peifer led off the sixth with a home run that pulled Lewisberry within a run. Adam Cramer walked, Braden Kolmansberger doubled and Cole Wagner walked before Henline slammed a 2-0 pitch down the left-field line and brought most of the 32,672 fans to their feet. Taylors, which plays an elimination game Monday against Bowling Green, Kentucky, scored four runs each in the fourth and sixth innings to take an 8-6 lead against a team that had won every game by seven runs or more this summer. Alex Edmondson hit a three-run, fourth-inning home run and Brock Myers hit a two-out, three-run triple in the sixth to put Taylors ahead for the first time. Lewisberry scored five firstinning runs and led 6-0 after two innings. Ethan Phillips highlighted the first inning with a three-run double. Cole Wagner struck out 10 in five innings for Lewisberry. Pearland, Texas 8, Bonita California 4 SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT (AP) — Ben Gottfried hit a two-run homer and threw 4 2/3 innings of three-hit ball and Pearland, Texas, beat Bonita, California, 8-4 on Sunday to improve to 2-0 in the Little League World Series. Gottfried allowed no earned run, struck out seven and stifled a team that had hit 90 home runs during 17 straight all-star wins. His sixth-inning home run made it, 8-1. Isaac Garcia closed out the win for a second straight Series game despite allowing a Dante Schmid three-run, sixth-inning home run. Pearland advanced to play the Lewisberry, PennsylvaniaTaylors, South Carolina winner in Wednesday, with that winner going to Saturday’s U.S. title game. Pearland scored five thirdinning runs, four with two outs. Pinch-hitter Raffi Gross provided the big blow, driving the first pitch he saw well over the leftfield fence for a two-run home run that put Pearland up, 4-0. Garcia then added an RBI single and another runner scored on an error. Zack Mack had two RBIs for the Southwest champions and his first-inning RBI single put Pearland up to stay. Levi Mendez hit a third-inning RBI double for Bonita, which dropped into the loser’s bracket and will play Monday against Cranston, Rhode Island. Venezuela 7, Uganda 0 SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT (AP) — Luis Castillo pitched a one-hit shutout and also hit a two-run home run as Venezuela beat Uganda 7-0 on Sunday to advance to the International winner’s bracket final at the Little League World Series. Uganda struggled to make contact off Castillo, who allowed four fair balls, four foul balls and struck out 14. Castillo finished the shutout two pitches short of Little League’s 85-pitch limit after his defense caught Joshua Olara in a rundown to end the game. Castillo also went 2 for 3 at the plate and scored twice. Joel Flores hit a first-inning grand slam to give Venezuela an early lead. Felix Canpara had Uganda’s lone hit, a single to center field in the fifth. Venezuela will play Wednesday against the winner of Japan vs. Mexico, to be played later Sunday. Uganda remained alive in this modified, double-elimination tournament, playing Monday vs. Taiwan. Japan 3, Mexico 1 SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT (AP) — Pinch-hitter Fukutaro Kiyomiya homered in the bottom of the fifth inning, and Tokyo pitchers Nobuyuki Kawashima and Daiki Fukuyama shut down Mexicali Baja California, Mexico, in a 3-1 victory Sunday in the Little League World Series. Kabu Kikuchi gave Japan a 2-0 lead in the first when he singled home Shingo Tomita and Yugo Aoki. Aoki finished 3 for 3, all singles. Kawashima struck out five and walked none in four shutout innings for the win. Jose Reyes took the loss for the Mexican team, allowing three runs on six hits in 5 2/3 innings before leaving at 87 pitches. Gerardo Lujano homered for Mexicali Baja California in the sixth. Japan improved to 2-0. The Kitasuna Little League also represented Japan in winning 2001 and 2012 LLWS titles, with return trips in 2007 and 2014.

Love wins Wyndham; Tiger struggles in final round GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) — Davis Love III’s long victory drought is over. Tiger Woods will have to wait a while to get another chance. Love won the Wyndham Championship on Sunday to become the third-oldest winner in PGA Tour history, while Woods’ season came to an abrupt end. The 51-year-old Love closed with a 6-under 64 for a one-stroke victory over Jason Gore. “Any victory now is going to be really sweet when you’re over 50,” Love said. The dominant storyline all week at Sedgefield Country Club was the mere presence of Woods, who needed a victory to earn a spot in the FedEx Cup playoffs opener next week. He was poised to challenge Sunday, starting just two strokes off the lead. But he only had one birdie during his first 10 holes, dropping way off the pace with a triple bogey on the par-4 11th. Woods shot a 70, finished four strokes back and ended at No. 178 in the standings, well outside the cut-off of 125. “I gave myself a chance, and I had all the opportunity in the world today to do it,” Woods said. “I didn’t get it done.” Now comes a break before his next tournament, the Frys.com Open in October in northern California. It’s the first event of the tour’s 2015-16 season. “This is my offseason right now,” he said. Love — who started at No. 186 — played himself into The Barclays by earning 500 FedEx Cup points and $972,000 in prize money. At 51 years, 4 months, 10 days, Love trails only Sam Snead and Art Wall on the tour’s age list. Snead won the last of his eight Greensboro titles at Sedgefield in 1965 at 52 years, 10 months, 8 days, and Wall took the 1975 Greater Milwaukee Open at 51 years, 7 months, 10 days. Love has 21 career victories, three in Greensboro. His previous two wins came across town at Forest Oaks in 1992 and 2006, and he had just one win since then — at the 2008 Children’s Miracle Network Classic in Florida. “To have your name thrown out there with Sam Snead at any point is incredible,” Love said. “For some reason, this tournament has been good to guys in my age group.” Love finished at 17-under 263. Gore, the third-round leader, shot a 69. Scott Brown (68), Charl Schwartzel (66) and Paul Casey (67) were two strokes behind Love. Love, who was four strokes back after three rounds, started strong with four birdies and an eagle on Nos. 2-6. He moved to 17 under with an eagle on the par-5 15th — the first of his career during a competitive round on that hole. PITTSBURGH (AP) — Jordy Nelson caught the ball, spun and prepared to dart downfield. Two steps later, Green Bay’s Pro Bowl wide receiver was on the turf, his left knee injured and his season very much in doubt. While Nelson was able to gingerly walk to the sideline early in the first quarter of Sunday’s 24-19 exhibition loss to Pittsburgh, it might be the last sign of Nelson in his familiar No. 87 jersey this year. While Packers coach Mike McCarthy stressed the defending NFC North champions “will look for good news” when Nelson is reevaluated in Green Bay on Monday, quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ expressed equal parts frustration and mystification. “It’s difficult to lose a guy like that in a meaningless game,” Rodgers said. The play that may change the course of Green Bay’s season started innocently enough. The Packers were driving crisply down the field on their opening possession when Rodgers hit Nelson on a little hitch route. Nelson leapt to make the catch and planted his left leg while turning to face Pittsburgh cornerback Antwon Blake only to unexpectedly drop to his knees, a potentially devastating blow for the Packers and dynamic playmaker who set career highs in receptions (98) and yards receiving (1,519) in 2014. “I’m not going to get into the ‘What if’ game,” Rodgers said. “I don’t know what his status will be. I’m just hoping for the best.” So are the Steelers after Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey exited in the first quarter with a left ankle injury coach Mike Tomlin said will likely require surgery. Pouncey, who missed all of 2013 after tearing multiple ligaments in his right knee in the opener against Tennessee, is out indefinitely. “He got rolled up on but he walked it off,” Steelers right tackler Marcus Gilbert said. “I was hoping that it wasn’t nothing too bad. Once he got carted off, it struck me.” READY TO GO While Nelson and Pouncey are sidelined, Rodgers and Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger appear ready to go. Rodgers completed 4 of 5 passes for 57 yards during two series of work, with one drive ending with a touchdown run by Eddie Lacy and the other with Rodgers getting sacked by James Har- rison for a safety. Rodgers banged his forearm on the play and iced it afterward but said he could have continued if it was the regular season. Lacy gave the Packers the lead four plays after Nelson’s exit with a remarkably easy 7-yard touchdown sprint through a massive hole on the left side of the line. A 2-point conversion by James Starks — through an equally massive hole on the right side — put Green Bay up 8-0. “We’ve done some really good things the first two weeks, but shoot, there’s a lot of football still,” McCarthy said. Roethlisberger finished 11 of 14 for 100 yards and a score, though it took some time to get going. The Steelers struggled in the first quarter — a 58yard touchdown pass from Roethlisberger to Antonio Brown was wiped out by an offensive pass interference penalty — but regrouped in the second. Working out of the hurry up offense, Roethlisberger led the Steelers 51 yards in seven plays, the last one a little 5-yard flip to a wide open Markus Wheaton that put the Steelers up 9-8 before the reserves took over. “We’ve done a ton of red zone work and that’s one of the plays we’ve been working on and we got the look we wanted,” said Wheaton, who added he’s never been that open when the offense has run that play during training camp. QUARTERBACKS Green Bay second-string quarterback Scott Tolzien completed 11 of 19 passes for 102 yards and a 21-yard score to Richard Rodgers late in the first half. Bruce Gradkowski’s preseason debut was brief. The primary backup behind Roethlisberger spent the first three weeks of training camp on the physically unable to perform list with a sore arm. He connected on 3 of 5 passes for 12 yards before leaving with a left finger injury. Third-stringer Landry Jones, trying to convince the Steelers to keep him around, tossed a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to complete a rally from a 10-point deficit. OTHER INJURIES Green Bay guard T.J. Lang went out in the first half to be monitored for a concussion. Linebacker Adrian Hubbard and cornerback Damarious Randall were treated with IV fluids due to dehydration. Pittsburgh defensive lineman Stephon Tuitt injured his left ankle. 7 The Daily Press Monday, August 24, 2015 Blue Jays complete three-game sweep of Angels ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Edwin Encarnacion went 4 for 4 with a homer and four RBIs, and the Toronto Blue Jays completed a thunderous three-game sweep of the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday with a 12-5 victory that vaulted them back into first place in the AL East. The Jays’ 16th victory in 19 games, coupled with the Yankees’ 4-3 loss to Cleveland, put Toronto atop the division for the first time since Aug. 13. The Blue Jays, who lead the majors by far with 670 runs, set a franchise record for a threegame series with 36. They totaled 48 hits against a vanquished Angels pitching staff that has surrendered 44 runs, 60 hits and 15 walks over their last four games. R.A. Dickey (8-10) won his fifth straight decision over seven starts, despite allowing five runs and 11 hits in six innings. The Angels’ Garrett Richards (12-10) was charged with nine runs and 10 hits in five-plus innings. Indians 4, Yankees 3 NEW YORK (AP) — Francisco Lindor homered off Dellin Betances in the eighth, Trevor Bauer threw 6 1/3 strong innings and CC Sabathia exited with an injury as Cleveland beat New York on Andy Pettitte Day in the Bronx. Carlos Santana homered off Sabathia for the Indians, who have won five of their last six games at Yankee Stadium. Sabathia departed in the third inning with right knee pain. Lindor’s homer, the rookie’s second blast in two games, came moments after Carlos Beltran hit a game-tying double off reliever Bryan Shaw (2-2) in the seventh. Lindor became the first lefthanded batter to homer off Betances (6-3), who had faced 302 left-handed hitters without allowing a homer. Cardinals 10, Padres 3 SAN DIEGO (AP) — Michael Wacha pitched six solid innings and Stephen Piscotty homered twice and drove in five runs to help St. Louis Cardinals avoided a three-game sweep. Jason Heyward had three hits as St. Louis averted getting swept for the first time this season. Wacha (15-4) got his fourth straight win, allowing one run and four hits while striking out three and walking two. After being shut out on Saturday night, the Cardinals scored four in the first against rookie Colin Rea, who was making his third major-league start. Rea (2-1) struggled early and made a throwing error in the first that contributed to the just one run and four hits while striking out eight. He got the spot start when the Mets decided to push back Harvey’s outing, and he turned in a performance worthy of New York’s strong rotation. Michael Conforto had three hits for the Mets, who have won 10 straight against Colorado dating to 2014. David Hale (3-5) threw a pair of wild pitches while Anthony Recker was batting in the second inning, both allowing a run to score. Twins 4, Orioles 3, 12 innings BALTIMORE (AP) — Trevor Plouffe hit a tying single with two outs in the ninth inning and Minnesota took advantage of two errors in the 12th to complete a four-game sweep. Twins manager Paul Molitor was ejected in the ninth for arguing a strikeout by Miguel Sano, who tried to hold back his swing. Plouffe followed with his hit, giving closer Zach Britton his third blown save of the season. All-Star third baseman Manny Machado moved to shortstop for the first time in his major league career in the 12th and misplayed a grounder by Eduardo Escobar, who slid in safely to second. It was Machado’s second error of the game. Third baseman Jimmy Paredes then could not handle a sharp grounder by Shane Robinson that allowed Escobar to score. Glen Perkins (2-4), who had been dealing with a bulging disc and hadn’t pitched since Aug. 17, picked up the win. Tommy Milone got his first career save. Brian Matusz (1-3) took the loss. Cubs 9, Braves 3 CHICAGO (AP) — Kris Bryant homered twice and Kyle Schwarber connected an inning after hitting a hard foul ball that sent a fan to the hospital as Chicago handed Atlanta its seventh straight loss. The game was briefly delayed in the first inning after Schwarber’s foul liner hit a female fan sitting just past the camera well on the first base side. The woman was carried off on a stretcher and taken to a hospital. The Cubs said the woman was conscious. Several fans around the majors have been hit this season, and Major League Baseball has said it is studying the issue of crowd safety. The Cubs hit five home runs, including a leadoff shot by Dexter Fowler in the first inning and a three-run drive by Miguel Montero. Jason Hammel (7-5) allowed two runs in 6 1/3 innings. Matt Wisler (5-4) gave up Cardinals’ rally. He gave up five runs — four earned — over four innings. San Diego made two errors in the first inning and the Cardinals capitalized with three hits, including Piscotty’s two-run triple. Mariners 8, White Sox 6 SEATTLE (AP) — Robinson Cano had a two-run homer and Nelson Cruz doubled in two runs to help Seattle avoid a threegame sweep. Seattle built a 7-1 lead through five innings, but the White Sox cut it to 7-6 with five runs in the sixth behind a pair of two-run homers. Adam Eaton singled with one out in the sixth and scored on Tyler Saladino’s double. Jose Abreu followed with his 23rd home run. After Melky Cabrera grounded out, Avisail Garcia singled, chasing starter Taijuan Walker. Logan Kensing, called up earlier in the day from TripleA Tacoma, relieved and allowed a two-run homer to Adam LaRoche, his 12th. The Mariners added a run in the eighth on Ketel Marte’s sacrifice fly. Walker (9-7) allowed five runs on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings. John Danks (6-11) was tagged for seven runs on eight hits in five innings. Athletics 8, Rays 2 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Eric Sogard hit a tiebreaking two-run single as part of a seven-run seventh inning and Oakland withstood another blown late lead by the bullpen to beat Tampa Bay. Mark Canha tripled and drove in four runs while Billy Burns added three hits for the A’s, who won for just the third time in 12 games. The A’s went into the game with the worst record in the AL and managed only three hits through the first six innings before matching their season high with seven runs in one inning. Stephen Vogt had two hits as part of the seventh when the Oakland sent 12 men to the plate. Vogt was also thrown out at home two batters before Sogard’s hit off Steve Geltz (2-5) put the A’s ahead for good. Fernando Rodriguez (3-1) retired four batters for the win after the Rays scored twice off Sean Doolittle in the seventh. Mets 5, Rockies 1 DENVER (AP) — Logan Verrett stepped into Matt Harvey’s spot and earned his first major league win in his first start, pitching eight impressive innings to lead New York. After the NL East-leading Mets posted two 14-9 wins at Coors Field, Verrett (1-0) allowed Bryant’s two-run homer in the first, Schwarber’s solo drive in the second and Montero’s homer in the third. Astros 3, Dodgers 2, 10 innings HOUSTON (AP) — Jason Castro’s solo homer in the 10th inning helped Houston complete a three-game sweep. There was one out in the 10th when Castro connected off Chris Hatcher (1-5), launching a 96 mph fastball into the first row of the seats in left field. The play was reviewed and confirmed. Kenley Jansen, who had converted 17 straight save opportunities, allowed a leadoff single to rookie Carlos Correa in the ninth before the Astros tied it up on a two-out RBI single by Marwin Gonzalez. Luke Gregerson (7-2) allowed one hit in a scoreless 10th for the win. The NL West-leading Dodgers were swept by the Astros for the first time since May of 2008 and have dropped a season-high five straight overall. Royals 8, Red Sox 6 BOSTON (AP) — Mike Moustakas’ two-run double capped a four-run ninth inning that rallied AL Central-leading Kansas City past Boston. Moustakas also had a solo homer and RBI double as the Royals salvaged a split of the four-game series. Boston led 6-4 going into the ninth. After left fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. threw out Omar Infante trying for an inside-thepark homer for the first out, Kansas City rallied with four hits against Junichi Tazawa (2-6), tying it on Eric Hosmer’s two-run single. Moustakas hit a bases-loaded double to right. Chris Young (9-6) retired one batter and Wade Davis got the final three outs for his 11th save. Nationals 9, Brewers 5 WASHINGTON (AP) — Anthony Rendon and Wilson Ramos homered, and Danny Espinosa hit a three-run double to lead Washington. Bryce Harper doubled twice for the Nationals, who completed consecutive series victories for the first time since winning three straight in late June. Jordan Zimmermann (10-8) allowed four runs over 5 2/3 innings. Matt Garza (6-14) gave up seven runs over 4 2/3 innings in his shortest outing since May 16. He allowed eight hits and a career high-tying six walks and raised his career ERA 7.17 against Washington in eight starts. Jonathan Lucroy, Scooter Gennett and Khris Davis homered for Milwaukee. Rangers 4, Tigers 2 DETROIT (AP) — Cole Hamels threw six strong innings, and Mike Napoli and Chris Gimenez homered to help Texas hold onto the second AL wild-card spot. The Rangers, who have won nine of their last 11 games, started the day with a half-game lead over the Angels, with Baltimore another half-game back. Hamels (7-8) got the win, allowing two runs on eight hits and two walks. He struck out two. Shawn Tolleson, the third Rangers reliever, pitched the ninth for his 25th save. Matt Boyd (1-4) gave up three runs on five hits and three walks in six innings. Mitch Moreland put Texas ahead with a two-run double in the sixth. Adrian Beltre and Rangers manager Jeff Banister were both ejected in the fifth inning. Diamondbacks 4, Reds 0 CINCINNATI (AP) — Chris Anderson gave up five hits in 6 2/3 innings, and Welington Castillo and David Peralta homered to help Arizona hand Cincinnati its season hight-tying ninth straight loss. The Diamondbacks completed their first four-game sweep over the Reds. Anderson (6-5) was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday and recalled on Thursday when Jeremy Hellickson was put on the disabled list. Relievers Addison Reed and Matt Reynolds finished the shutout. Reynolds, coming back from Tommy John surgery, made his first big league appearance since June 2013. Raisel Iglesias (3-5) struck out 13 in seven innings, the most by a Reds rookie since Gary Nolan fanned 15 Giants in 1967. P{hillies 2, Marlins 0 MIAMI (AP) — Rookie Aaron Nola pitched a career-high eight innings and allowed only one runner to advance beyond first base, helping Philadelphia beat Miami and tighten the race for next year’s top draft pick. By winning the final three games in the four-game series, the Phillies moved into a tie with Miami for the worst record in the majors (50-74). Philadelphia is 21-12 since the All-Star break. Nola (4-1) allowed three hits, walked two and struck out six while throwing a career-high 100 pitches. The Phillies’ 2014 first-round draft choice lowered his ERA to 3.59 and improved to 4-0 in his past six starts. Marlins rookie Adam Conley (1-1) allowed one run while pitching a career-high six innings. He walked four, but the Phillies went 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position against him. Unanimous choice: Ohio State Logano defends Bristol victory is No. 1 in AP preseason Top 25 to hold off Gibbs drivers By Ralph D. Russo AP College Football Writer Ohio State is the first unanimous preseason No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll. The defending national champion Buckeyes received all 61 first-place votes from the media panel in the rankings released Sunday. TCU is No. 2, followed by Alabama, Baylor and Michigan State. The Buckeyes won the first College Football Playoff championship last season and are trying to become the 12th team to win consecutive AP titles since the poll began in 1936. Preseason rankings date back to 1950. Since then no team had received more than 97 percent of the first-place votes in a preseason poll. In 2013, Alabama, which had won two straight championships, received 58 of 60 first-place votes and defending champion Florida did the same in 2009. Neither finished the season No. 1. The rest of this year’s preseason top 10 is Auburn, Oregon, Southern California, Georgia and Florida State. POLL POINTS 2 — The last two times the Buckeyes opened the season at No. 1 (1998 and 2006), they finished No. 2. 6 — Pac 12 has six teams ranked in the preseason poll for the second straight year. 8 — It is the eighth time Ohio State is ranked No. 1 in preseason. Only Oklahoma has been rated the top preseason team more times, with 10. 8 — SEC has eight teams ranked for the third time, the most by any conference. SEC set the record in 2011 and had eight teams ranked last year. 10 — Ten times the preseason No. 1 has gone on to win the national title. Only twice, Florida State in 1999 and Southern California in 2004, has the top-ranked team in the preseason poll gone wire-to-wire as No. 1. 27 — Ohio State has appeared in the preseason poll for 27 consecutive years, the longest current streak and the fourth longest all-time. Oklahoma has the second longest current streak at 16 years. CLOSE AGAIN You might have heard that TCU and Baylor shared the Big 12 championship last year. It was sort of a big deal. Well, the secondranked Horned Frogs and No. 4 Bears are close again and both have their best preseason rankings. — TCU’s previous best preseason ranking was No. 6 in 2010. — Baylor’s previous best was No. 7 in 1957. ROLLING No. 3 Alabama is preseason top-five for the seventh consecutive season. It is the third longest streak of preseason top-five rankings in the history of the poll. Florida State did it 11 straight times from 19902000 and Oklahoma had eight straight preseason topfive rankings from 1974-81. _SPARTY, YES! No. 5 Michigan State has its best preseason ranking since 1967 when it started No. 3. RAISING ARIZONA No. 22 Arizona is ranked in the preseason for the first time since 1999. The Wildcats and rival Arizona State, ranked 15th, are both preseason ranked for just the fifth time (1974, ‘89, ‘98 and .99). BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) — As Joey Logano circled Bristol Motor Speedway, he’d briefly glance in the mirror to watch Kevin Harvick. Logano had taken the lead on a restart with 64 laps remaining, but Harvick was closing in by using a completely different line. Refusing to get rattled, Logano stuck to what worked for him Saturday and won the Bristol night race for the second consecutive year. “It was kind of interesting to watch it in the mirror, I was watching him drive in and I was like, ‘He’s going to get me eventually,’” Logano said. “It’s so interesting how we ran such different lines and be the same speed on the racetrack. We both found what works for us, and I really thought we J.R. “Duke” DiNardo Paving Company, Inc. Serving the area for over 60 years!

He has won twice this month as he readies for the start of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. There are two more races before the playoffs begin. “We are hitting it at the right time, that’s for sure,” Logano said. “I feel like we are right where we need to be. I can’t wait for the Chase to start.” Logano led 176 laps, second only to Joe Gibbs Racing driver Kyle Busch, who led a race-high 192 laps. “Our team just executed,” Logano said. “That’s what we did and that’s what we do every week. We just try to keep our heads calm and cool and just run our race.” HELPMATES, INC. & KANE COMMUNITY HOSPITAL Annual Multiphasic Testing 30 Tests for $35.00 !

Dear Annie: Years ago, I was engaged to a man who I thought was the love of my life. But at college, he ghosted me -- leaving without an explanation. This was horribly wounding and I never recovered. I am still single, though I haven’t stopped looking for that special someone. My ex-fiance eventually married a woman who made no demands on him, which suited him just fine. They had a child together. Now that he is middleaged, he has decided that he is emotionally isolated and wants to stay in constant contact with me. He explained how he was abused as a child, and I now realize that his lifelong anxiety crippled him and is what caused him to leave me. He has also expressed deep regret and apologized. The chemistry with this old flame is just as strong as ever. My afternoons and evenings are taken up by phone calls and texts. He has dreams in which we are constantly together, but he never talks about a future for us. He has told his wife that we are “friends.” This is driving me nuts. I still care about him, and I know that my presence in his life has improved his situation. But I don’t feel respected or romantically appreciated despite the physical attraction. I worry that if I break this off, his life will take a turn for the worse and I’d regret it. He says he loves me, but it looks like it will be years before anything could happen between us. Since I recognize that I’m caught in an undertow of long, unrequited love, could you throw me a rope? -- Still Carrying the Torch Dear Torch: You need to get out of the water altogether. This old flame is never going to leave his wife. He’s kept you pining for years, and now you are giving him additional power over your future. Whatever emotional needs he has, he should be confiding in his wife or a professional therapist, and you should say so. Start by cutting back on these conversations. Answer him less and less often, and then stop altogether. Keep your responses neutral. This is not a romance. It’s his midlife crisis. Dear Annie: Ten months ago, after 45 years of marriage, I lost my wonderful wife. Since then, one of my biggest heartbreaks is the fact that she did not write down many of her self-developed recipes for foods I really enjoyed. When we were married, I worked difficult hours, which meant the only time we spent together in relative peace was during meals. She always made a special effort to fix things that she knew I liked. But no matter how hard I try, I cannot duplicate many of these dishes because she made them from memory. I would like to suggest that whoever does most of the cooking in the family write down such recipes for their spouse and children. It would mean so much for me to be able to fix the things that we enjoyed together. -- Ron from West Virginia Dear Ron: Thank you for the sweet suggestion. Recipes and other family traditions that are not written down or passed down orally can be lost to close family members, friends and future generations. What a shame that would be.

When you’re holding aces, play them. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a great day to make plans to travel or get further training and education, because you are keen to expand your world. You also want to have fun while you’re doing it! GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Discussions about shared property, inheritances and anything that you own jointly with others (including debt) will go well today. In fact, you have the upper hand. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Because the Moon today is directly opposite your sign, you have to be cooperative with others. Just be prepared to go more than halfway. No biggie. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You will be productive at work today, because people will cooperate with you and open doors for you. Ultimately, this will either boost your income or secure your job. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a playful, powerful day. It’s a strong day for those of you in the hospitality industry and the entertainment world. It also favors sports and working with children. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Family discussions, particularly discussions with a female family member, will go well today. People expect the best from each other and are prepared to offer the same in kind. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A popular day! Enjoy the company of others, especially people in groups. Today is the kind of day where you can trust your Scorpio Spidey sense. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a powerful day. Discussions with bosses and people in authority might indirectly or directly boost your income. A special discussion might land you a new job. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a strong day for you, because the Moon is in your sign making good aspects to three other planets. This makes you strong, focused and fortunate! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You might be low-key today. However, whatever you do behind the scenes will benefit something to do with shared possessions or whatever you own jointly with others. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Friendships with others, especially with female acquaintances, are warm and supportive today. All your interactions with groups will be positive and rewarding. YOU BORN TODAY You are physical, flamboyant and sexual. People are amazed at your energy. You also charm everyone. At times, you are public; at other times, you are private. This is the year you have been waiting for. It’s a time of expansion and great activity. Take advantage of opportunities. A major change might take place, perhaps as significant as what occurred around 2006. Go for it! Birthdate of: Blake Lively, actress; Claudia Schiffer, supermodel; Alexander Skarsgard, actor.
