Neal about to embark on new venture as educator
By Becky Polaski
Staff Writer
The desire to interact with
and educate others has made a
career in education a perfect fit
for Toby Neal. That career path
has already taken Neal to some
exciting places and provided him
with experiences that have helped
him continue to learn and grow
while sharing his knowledge with
others, and now the next chapter
of his journey as an educator is
about to unfold.
The Shinglehouse native began his professional career as the
Conservation Education Coordinator at the Elk Country Visitor
Center in Benezette, a position he
held for a little over a year before
logging his final hours on the job
Tuesday afternoon. Now he finds
himself headed for a more traditional educational setting as he
was recently hired to teach agriculture and horticulture at Central Mountain High School in Mill
Hall.
"Knowing that I wanted to
teach started right when I was
graduating from Penn State DuBois in the Wildlife Technology
Program," Neal said. "I knew that
I wanted to educate, and there's
just different capacities of educating. I went into the nontraditional
capacity of being an environmental educator as the Conservation
Education Coordinator here (at
the visitor center). It was a nontraditional setting in the sense
that I was not in a classroom every day. I wasn't seeing the same
people or students every day."
Neal's involvement at the
visitor center actually began several years ago, and he worked at
the facility both as an intern and
as a part-time seasonal employee
before being hired to replace Barb
Kurtz, the inaugural Conservation Education Coordinator, in the
spring of 2015. When he stepped
into the role, the groundwork for
many of the center's educational
programs had already been estab-

Penn Highlands corner
Penn Highlands
Healthcare has been
recognized for reaching
10 years in providing
HeartCaring education to
its patients.
HeartCaring is an
evidence-based program
- one that has proven
research in statistics,
risk assessment, treatment recommendations
and patient education
- that focuses on raising
awareness to the threat
of cardiovascular disease
in women, according to
Lori Rancik, RN, of The
Women’s Health Center of Penn Highlands
Healthcare. She oversees
the HeartCaring and
Spirit of Women programming for the system.
“HeartCaring takes
what we call a threepronged approach meaning the hospitals, staff
and patients are all
included in the education
efforts and are making
conscious efforts to follow
the guidelines to reduce
the burden of heart disease in women,” she said.
HeartCaring began
as a core component of
the Spirit of Women program in Spring 2007 at
Penn Highlands DuBois
and has been used at all
Penn Highlands Healthcare hospitals since
they came together as a
system.
“HeartCaring educa-

HeartCaring is a program that focuses on raising awareness to the threat of cardiovascular disease
in women. It has been in use for 10 years at Penn Highlands Healthcare, and it also reaches out to
men, as well. Shown is the logo that indicates when an event or educational piece is a part of the
HeartCaring program.
tion and outreach within
communities is available throughout Penn
Highlands,” Rancik said.
“A major project of the
HeartCaring program
was to establish a cardiovascular risk assessment
in the medical record
that is used in all Penn
Highlands physician
practices.”
This assessment is
a mandatory field to be
completed yearly on all
patients over the age of
20. Patient education
resources are available to
all systems and are used
regularly in the cardiac
rehab departments at all
locations.
Many of the community outreach programs that are provided
through the Women’s
Health Center focus on
heart health awareness
and use materials that
are available through
HeartCaring. The topics
range from heart attack,
stroke and associated
risk in diabetes to heart
healthy food choices,
healthy holidays and how
friends, family and pets
can help one’s heart.
This program is saving lives. For example,
one topic of outreach is
the atypical presentation
of heart attack in women.
This helps women understand that they may
not experience the classic symptoms such as
crushing chest pain and
sweatiness.
One woman had attended a woman’s heart
health lecture. From the
information provided,
she shares that she
recognized that she had
many risk factors for
heart disease and made
an appointment with
her physician who began
testing further identify
her risk and encouraged
lifestyle modifications to
help lower her risk.
Later that weekend,
she woke during the
night with soreness in
her jaw. Her first response was that she was
grinding her teeth. However, she quickly recalled
the information that was
presented in heart attack
symptoms and recognized
she needed prompt care.
Upon her arrival to the
Emergency Department,
she was in fact having a
heart attack and required immediate intervention.
“She provided a followup message that if
she had not attended the
women’s heart health lecture, she likely would not
be alive today,” Rancik
said.
sizzled, and she suspected
him of planting a Philadelphia Inquirer article a
year later that faulted her
for not charging anyone
in a statehouse bribery
sting.
"I will not allow them
to discredit me or our office," Kane wrote to a media strategist that day, according to emails shown
in court Tuesday. "This is
war."
Kane, out for revenge,
gathered documents from
a Fina-led grand jury case
from 2009 that had likewise been dropped, prosecutors said. The case involved J. Whyatt "Jerry"
Mondesire, an NAACP
leader in Philadelphia. He
became collateral damage
when a story ran in 2014,
they said.
"He was just a casualty in her war of revenge.
She was after Frank
Fina," Assistant District
Attorney Michelle Henry
said in opening state-
ments.
Kane had given the
confidential documents to
top assistant Adrian King,
who passed them on to
campaign consultant Josh
Morrow, who passed them
to the Philadelphia Daily
News, she said. Rather
than address her critics at
a news conference, Henry
said, Kane deployed "cloak
and dagger" techniques.
Kane then lied repeatedly about the leak to a
grand jury, Henry said.
"I don't know what
Adrian gave to Josh," she
told the grand jury, according to excerpts shown
in court. "What I said to
Adrian was, 'People need
to know about this.' He
agreed."
But she said that she
neither passed King any
documents nor told him
which ones to deliver.
Bruce Beemer, who
headed the criminal section, testified that he was
stunned when he saw the
Daily News article because he knew the Mondesire leak must have come
from their office. He returns to court Wednesday
for more testimony.
The defense, in opening statements, told jurors that Kane wouldn't
have risked her career
over a feud with Fina.
"(He) left 10 minutes
after she arrived," veteran New York trial lawyer
Gerald Shargel told jurors
in opening statements. "It
just does not make sense
that she would risk her
reputation and her career
(over him)."
But Fina, after going to work for Philadelphia District Attorney
Seth Williams, fanned the
flames when he revived
the statehouse probe and
secured several convictions. Kane had deemed
the case flawed by sloppy
detective work and a focus
on black lawmakers from
Philadelphia.
“HeartCaring is the
ideal tie-in to the community with The Heart
Center and all of the
cardiology departments,
primary care offices, OB/
GYN practices and Emergency Departments at
Penn Highlands Healthcare,” Dr. Gary DuGan,
chief medical officer for
Penn Highlands Healthcare said. “We hope that
more lives are saved by
the education that this
program brings.”
In addition to community outreach programs to small groups,
health fairs and women’s
health events, HeartCaring, education is provided
on a continuing basis
each month in two locations in our region.
The Cardiac Support
Group in conjunction
with The Heart Center is
held at 2:30 p.m. on the
second Tuesday of every
month in the Fugate
Room on the second
floor of PH DuBois West.
This month, the group
meets on Tuesday, Aug.
9, and the topic is Afib
and Stroke presented by
Rancik.
The HeartCaring
Education Class is held
at the Patient Education
Center at the Peeble’s
Plaza, Philipsburg. The
next meeting is at 2 p.m.,
Wednesday, Aug. 24, with
Rancik talking about
“Too Much On Your
Plate.” The fall meetings
will be held at 3 p.m. on
the third Thursday beginning in September.
Schedules are always
available for these groups
under “events” at www.
phhealthcare.org, and
watch for announcements
for more about individual
programs held throughout our region, such as
Conquer Cholesterol
coming Sept. 20 and Day
of Dance each February.
Despite the 10-year
effort of raising awareness to the risk and
threat of heart disease in
women, there is still a lot
of work to be done to get
the message to women to
understand their personal risk, Rancik said. “The
more research that has
been done, the more has
been identified that there
are definitely genderrelated risk factors to
consider when assessing, treating and caring
for women with heart
disease. Men should not
be excluded however, we
must remain diligent in
our efforts to understand
that men and women’s
hearts are different
and at times, women do
require a different approach to care.”

HeartCaring, go to www.

Kane is charged with
perjury, a felony, and misdemeanor counts of conspiracy, obstruction and
false swearing. She lost
her law license over the
charges and did not seek
re-election this year. The
trial is expected to last a
week.
Prosecutor: Pennsylvania attorney general had sought revenge
NORRISTOWN (AP)
— A desire for revenge
drove Pennsylvania's attorney general to leak secret criminal files to the
press to embarrass a rival
and then lie about it to a
grand jury, prosecutors
said as Kathleen Kane's
perjury and obstruction
trial opened Tuesday.

students with the opportunity to experience the program, and Neal noted that
they have had days where
as many as nine sessions
have been held in a row.
While the in-person
and distance learning programs were already established when Neal took over
as coordinator, he has not
only been instrumental in
helping to grow those programs, but he also implemented other educational
endeavors that have allowed the center to have
an increased reach and
benefit to educators.
Among those new educational offerings were
teacher workshops, and
Neal was involved with
coordinating three during his time at the center,
the largest of which was a
Wild About Elk workshop
that was held earlier this
year on June 8. Twenty-nine educators from
across the state attended
the workshop and spent
the day learning about
the basics of elk ecology,
elk habitat in Pennsylvania, and Pennsylvania's
elk herd in general. They
were also addressed by
members of other organizations such as the Pennsylvania Game Commission and the Elk County
Conservation District.
"The overall goal for
the teacher workshops
was to provide teachers
with an idea of where they
can get resources, especially resources talking
about Pennsylvania elk,"
Neal said.
Neal also created a
number of weekend programs which were offered
for guests at the center on
Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Among the topics that he focused on were
the golden eagle camera
trapping that took place
as part of the Appalachian
Eagle Project, as well as
programs on both timber
rattlesnakes and snakes
of Pennsylvania. He also
worked with Dr. Maurus
Sorg to coordinate the
outdoor school sessions
which have been offered
throughout this summer.
Over the past year, the
visitor center has also seen
the addition of two live
exhibits. One features a
pair of eastern box turtles,
while the other showcases
a pair of juvenile black rat
snakes.
"The live exhibits have
been such an asset to the
visitor center," Neal said.
"We get visitors from all
over the place and as soon
as they see something
moving or breathing,
they're excited."
Having the live animals onsite is particularly
beneficial during the hot
summer days when elk
and other wildlife are typically most active in the
mornings and evenings
because
they provide
something unexpected for
visitors who arrive in the
middle of the day.
"The live exhibits that
we have here give something else for them to
look at besides the stuffed
mounts and things that
we have in the visitor center. Those are exciting as
well, but they're not the
same as seeing something
living and breathing and
moving," Neal said. "Many
people that come through
here are scared of snakes,
but they can't take their
eyes off of them. It's kind
of cool and special because
I used to be one of those
people where I couldn't
stand the sight of a snake.
Now I love them and we
have them and I'm the
one who has helped to
train them to be adaptable
and make sure that they
don't bite people and that
they're not scared around
people."
Out of all of the different education programs
Neal was involved with
during his time as Conservation Education Coordinator, his favorite was
a CDE Training in Elk
County event, which was
held Sept. 11, 2015. The
career development event
training day was held
for FFA students from
throughout the state, and
roughly 70 students attended and participated
in training in the areas
of wildlife, forestry and
aquatic resources.
"This started for me as
a project before I graduated from the Agriculture
Education Program at

high school level students.
When I came in, we had
a lot of middle school programs and elementary
programs. We've had participants from ages three
to 90 go through the programs, so it's been really,
really cool to be able to
teach different ages and
learn tricks to the trade
about how different levels
and age groups learn."
In addition to being
able to work with so many
different people in person,
the center's distance learning program allowed Neal
to interact with countless
other students who do not
live close enough to make
the trek to the visitor center.
"Distance learning is
kind of unique in the way
we run it," Neal said.
Each group that wants
to participate in a distance
learning program through
the center signs up in advance and is sent an "elk
trunk" which contains a
variety of items such as an
elk pelt, a skull, an antler,
radio collars, and molds
of animal tracks. Also included for comparison are
shoulder blades of both
deer and elk since many
people are familiar with
the size of a whitetail deer,
but not everyone has seen
an elk.
"We ship that right to
the school for free. We have
sponsors that cover those
charges, and so we don't
charge anything to the
schools," Neal said. "Once
they get the trunk, we
have a preset date where
we'll do a program, which
we deliver over Skype. We
actually will teach the lesson just like we would if
they were here in person
at the visitor center, but
we do it through the computer screen. While we're
talking, because they have
the trunk, they can pass
the materials around and
get a feel for them. It's a
very hands-on experience,
online."
The sessions are typically one-on-one, with
Neal and other members
of the center's conservation education staff addressing one class at a
time. However, sometimes
schools schedule multiple
sessions to provide more

lished.
"When I first came
into the position as coordinator, the educational programs primarily consisted
of weekend programs every Saturday, and sometimes on Sundays. We
provided tours for school
groups and educational
groups that would come
in such as YMCA organizations, both girl and boy
scouts, cub scouts, and
senior citizen tours, and
then we had our distance
learning program where
we could connect virtually with any person in the
world to talk about elk,"
Neal said.
The variety of programs he was in charge of
coordinating and presenting kept Neal busy year
round. School groups tend
to frequent the center in
the spring and fall, making the months of March,
April, and May particularly busy before a lull in
the programs during the
summer months. Things
would pick back up again
with the start of the
new school year and the
months of September, October, and November were
a busy time as well. While
group visits slowed down
in the winter, that was the
time period when the center's conservation education staff would host many
of their distance learning
programs.
Most of the groups
that make the trip to the
visitor center are located
within two to three hours
of the facility. Organizations in St. Marys, Johnsonburg, DuBois, and
Brookville have all taken
advantage of their close
proximity and have been
frequent visitors to the
center, Neal said, indicating that some have traveled from a lot farther
away as well.
Having the opportunity to interact with so
many different people was
something Neal particularly enjoyed about the
position.
"Before I came to the
center I didn't have a
lot of time with educating all those different
age groups," Neal said.
"My primary focus from
a teaching aspect was
Penn State, and when I
was hired as coordinator I
wanted to follow through
with it," Neal said.
Moving forward, Neal
will remain actively involved with the FFA in a
new capacity. He will now
serve as an advisor for
students through his new
position at Central Mountain High School.
"I'm going to be working for the Keystone Central School District, and
they have a career education technology center
that is located at Central
Mountain High School.
I'm going to be teaching
agriculture and horticulture," Neal said. "With the
horticulture, there are two
greenhouses that we'll be
operating with students.
We'll be teaching animal
science. There is a lot of
potential for the program
to grow, and so I hope to
take some of the things I
learned in this position
and try to apply them to
the agriculture program
there."
The program, he added, is a multi-teacher program, so he will be working alongside instructors
who focus on topics such
as agriculture mechanics
and natural resources and
forestry.
"I'm looking forward
to being able to work with
them and work alongside
students in the FFA program to help build that
program and do some really nice things for their
community there," Neal
said.
Though he is moving
away from Pennsylvania's
elk country, Neal noted
that he has no regrets
about the time he spent in
the area and at the visitor
center.
"I don't regret my decision on interning here,
working here part-time,
and working here fulltime. I don't regret that at
all. I've learned so much in
this position," Neal said.
"I came in here not even
realizing that we had elk
in Pennsylvania until my
internship to now knowing so much more about
them."
He indicated that he
continues to learn new
things about the elk and
hopes to be able to share
some of that knowledge
with his students.
"I'm probably definitely going to be able to
talk to them about the elk
through animal science
talking about the ruminant digestive system especially," Neal said. "I plan
on taking the knowledge I
have acquired of elk back
to my classroom to use as
best I can."
While Neal also indicated that he will miss
the ability to view wildlife
that comes from living in
the Benezette area, it is
his fellow staff members
at the visitor center that
he will miss the most.
"Through my time
here, I have become very
close with many of the
staff members," he said.
"I don't view them just as
coworkers. I view them
as family. I'm really going
to miss being able to see
them on a daily basis and
interact with them. Certainly I'm going to stay in
contact with them."
Along with that, Neal
added that he will also
miss all of the good experiences he has had interacting with so many diverse
people at the visitor center.
With an exciting future ahead of him, Neal
leaves behind his position
as the Conservation Education Coordinator having
made an impact on countless individuals. Still, he
was hesitant to say that
he left the position and
the visitor center in a better state than they were
in when he first started
there.
"I don't know that I
would necessarily say 'better,' because I think it's a
subjective term, but I did
implement some updates
to the existing programming and develop teacher
development workshops,
and those will benefit the
Keystone Elk Country Alliance in the future," Neal
said. "I believe that I had
a positive impact on the
organization."

Guest Commentary
A Pointless AntiNuclear Gesture
The Obama administration is entering its final
months, but it's never too
late to further diminish
U.S. influence and discomfit our allies.
President Barack
Obama is considering
adopting a policy of "no
first use," i.e., declaring
that the United States
would never use nuclear
weapons except after a
nuclear attack on itself or its allies. From
Obama's perspective, this
change would have the
dual advantage of being
something he can legitimately do on his own and
representing a radical
departure in the country's
nuclear doctrine.
For 70 years, presidents of both parties have
maintained a posture of
nuclear ambiguity. We
wanted enemies to have to
contemplate the possibility
of a U.S. nuclear response
to acts of aggression. This
added an extra element
of uncertainty and risk to
potential attacks on us or
our friends, in the hopes of
deterring them in the first
place.
For the advocates of
no first use, the very fact
that ambiguity has been
our policy for so long is a
reason to abandon it. They
urge that we get beyond
"Cold War thinking," a
favorite line of President
Obama's as well. The end
of the Cold War indeed
changed the strategic
environment, but it didn't
make nuclear weapons
obsolete, or render age-old
concepts like deterrence
inoperative, or eliminate
international conflict.
The paradox of nukes
is that they are weapons
of cataclysmic destructive
force at the same time
that they have proven to
be a guarantee of peace.
As the strategist Bernard
Brodie wrote at the dawn
of the nuclear age: "Thus
far the chief purpose of
our military establishment
has been to win wars.
From now on its chief
purpose must be to avert
them." It is thanks in part
to the advent of nuclear
weapons that we have
averted the total wars
between great powers that
made the first half of the
20th century a vast killing
field.
Declaring no first
use would kick away an
element of our nuclear
deterrent. Yes, we no
longer have to worry
about deterring a massive Soviet army facing
west. But Vladimir Putin has already changed
the borders of Europe
through force, and there's
no reason to think he's
necessarily done. A RAND
Corporation study says
that Russian forces could
reach the capitals of the
Baltic States in less than
60 hours.
Why would we make
Putin's calculation any
easier in considering such
a move, or ease the minds
of other potential aggressors like China and North
Korea? We might never
use nuclear weapons in
response to a conventional attack, no matter
how brazen. Obviously
the risks in resorting to
nuclear weapons would be
mind-boggling, but taking
the possibility off the table
serves no purpose. If we
are going to have nuclear
weapons, we should take
advantage of their deterrent effect.
Relying entirely on
conventional forces for
deterrence would require
more military spending and more forwarddeployed assets by us and
our allies. Of course, the
analysts and activists who
argue for no first use tend
to be the same ones who
think we spend too much
on defense. One of these
things does not go along
with the other.
Our allies are freaked
out about the prospect of
no first use. They have
long relied on our nuclear
umbrella, and if it is being
pulled back, countries like
South Korea and Japan
will need to reconsider
their decisions to forswear
nuclear weapons. This is
why no first use would
contradict President
Obama's opposition to
nuclear proliferation, and
make Global Zero -- the
disarmament movement's
goal of a world free of
nuclear weapons -- even
more of a pipe dream.
In short, there is nothing to recommend no
first use unless you are
a lame-duck president
heedless of strategic reality and looking to make
a gesture of anti-nuclear
righteousness. No first use
would make the world,
at the margins, a more
dangerous place -- and be
a perfect parting shot for
President Obama.

Guest Commentary
Who Got Us Into These Endless Wars?
"Isolationists must not
prevail in this new debate over foreign policy,"
warns Richard Haass,
president of the Council
on Foreign Relations. "The
consequences of a lasting
American retreat from the
world would be dire."
To make his case
against the "Isolationist Temptation," Haass
creates a caricature, a
cartoon, of America First
patriots, then thunders
that we cannot become "a
giant gated community."
Understandably, Haass
is upset. For the CFR has
lost the country.
Why? It colluded in the
blunders that have bled
and near bankrupted
America and that cost
this country its unrivaled
global preeminence at the
end of the Cold War.
No, it was not "isolationists" who failed America.
None came near to power.
The guilty parties are the
CFR crowd and their neocon collaborators, and liberal interventionists who
set off to play empire after
the Cold War and create
a New World Order with
themselves as Masters of
the Universe.
Consider just a few of
the decisions taken in
those years that most
Americans wish we could
take back.
After the Soviet Union
withdrew the Red Army
from Europe and split into
15 nations, and Russia
held out its hand to us, we
slapped it away and rolled
NATO right up onto her
front porch.
Enraged Russians
turned to a man who
would restore respect
for their country. Did we
think they would just sit
there and take it?
How did bringing Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia
into NATO make America
stronger, safer and more
secure? For it has surely
moved us closer to a military clash with a nuclear
power.
In 2014, with John McCain and U.S. diplomats
cheering them on, mobs
in Independence Square
overthrew a pro-Russian
government in Kiev that
had been democratically
elected and installed a
pro-NATO regime.
Putin's response: Secure
Russia's naval base at
Sevastopol by retaking
Crimea, and support proRussian Ukrainians in
Luhansk and Donetsk who
preferred secession to submission to U.S. puppets.
Fortunately, our interventionists failed to bring
Georgia and Ukraine into
NATO. Had they succeeded, we almost surely
would have been in a
shooting war with Russia
by now.
Would that have made
us stronger, safer, more
secure?
After the attack on 9/11,
George W. Bush, with the
nation and world behind
him, took us into Afghanistan to eradicate the nest
of al-Qaida killers.
After having annihilated some and scattered
the rest, however, Bush
decided to stick around
and convert this wild land
of Pashtuns, Hazaras,
Tajiks and Uzbeks into
another Iowa.
Fifteen years later, we
are still there.
And the day we leave,
the Taliban will return,
undo all we have done,
and butcher those who co-
operated with the Americans.
If we had to do it over,
would we have sent a U.S.
army and civilian corps
to make Afghanistan look
more like us?
Bush then invaded
Iraq, overthrew Saddam,
purged the Baath Party,
and disbanded the Iraqi
army. Result: A ruined,
sundered nation with a
pro-Iranian regime in
Baghdad, ISIS occupying
Mosul, Kurds seceding,
and endless U.S. involvement in this second-longest of American wars.
Most Americans now
believe Iraq was a bloody
trillion-dollar mistake, the
consequences of which will
be with us for decades.
With a rebel uprising
against Syria's Bashar
al-Assad, the U.S. aided
the rebels. Now, 400,000
Syrians are dead, half the
country is uprooted, millions are in exile, and the
Damascus regime, backed
by Russia, Iran and Hezbollah, is holding on after
five years.
Meanwhile, we cannot
even decide whether we
want Assad to survive or
fall, since we do not know
who rises when he falls.
Anyone still think it
was a good idea to plunge
into Syria in support of
the rebels? Anyone still
think it was a good idea
to back Saudi Arabia
in its war against the
Houthi rebels in Yemen,
which has decimated that
country and threatens the
survival of millions?
Anyone still think it was
a good idea to attack Libya
and take down Moammar
Gadhafi, now that ISIS
and other Islamists and
rival regimes are fighting
over the carcass of that
tormented land?
"The Middle East is
arguably the most salient
example of what happens
when the U.S. pulls back,"
writes Haass.
To the CFR, the problem
is not that we plunged
headlong into this maelstrom of tyranny, tribalism
and terrorism, but that
we have tried to extricate
ourselves.
Hints that America
might leave the Middle
East, says Haass, have
"contributed greatly to
instability in the region."
So, must we stay indefinitely?
To the CFR, America's
role in the world is to corral Russia, defend Europe,
contain China, isolate
Iran, deter North Korea,
and battle al-Qaida and
ISIS wherever they may
be, bleeding our country's
military.
Nor is that all. We are
also to convert Syria, Iraq,
Libya, Yemen and Afghanistan into pro-Western
preferably democratic
countries, and embrace
"free trade," accepting the
imported merchandise of
all mankind, even if that
means endless $800 billion
trade deficits, bleeding our
country's economy.
Otherwise, you are just
an isolationist.

Today in History
Today is Wednesday,
Aug. 10, the 223rd day of
2016. There are 143 days
left in the year.
Today's Highlight in History:
On Aug. 10, 1846, President James K. Polk signed
a measure establishing the
Smithsonian Institution.
On this date:
In 1792, during the
French Revolution, mobs
in Paris attacked the Tuileries
(TWEE'-luh-reez)
Palace, where King Louis
XVI resided. (The king was
later arrested, put on trial
for treason, and executed.)
In 1821, Missouri became the 24th state.
In 1814, Henri Nestle,
founder of the food and
beverage company bearing his name, was born in
Frankfurt, Germany.
In 1921, Franklin D.
Roosevelt was stricken
with polio at his summer
home on the Canadian island of Campobello.
In 1949, the National
Military
Establishment
was renamed the Department of Defense.
In 1969, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca were murdered in their Los Angeles home by members of
Charles Manson's cult, one
day after actress Sharon
Tate and four other people
had been slain.
In 1975, television personality David Frost announced he had purchased
the exclusive rights to interview former President
Richard Nixon.
In 1991, nine Buddhists
were found slain at their
temple outside Phoenix,
Arizona. (Two teen-agers
were later arrested; Alessandro Garcia was sentenced to life in prison,
while Jonathan Doody received 281 years.)
In 1993, Ruth Bader
Ginsburg was sworn in as
the second female justice
on the U.S. Supreme Court.
In
1995,
Timothy
McVeigh and Terry Nichols were charged with 11
counts in the Oklahoma
City bombing (McVeigh
was convicted of murder
and executed; Nichols was
convicted of conspiracy and
involuntary manslaughter
and sentenced to life in
prison). Norma McCorvey,
"Jane Roe" of the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, announced
she had joined the antiabortion group Operation
Rescue.
Ten years ago: British
authorities
announced
they had thwarted a terror-
ist plot to simultaneously
blow up 10 aircraft heading to the U.S. using explosives smuggled in hand
luggage. A suicide bomber
blew himself up among pilgrims outside Iraq's holiest Shiite shrine in Najaf,
killing 35 people. Saomai
(sow-my), the most powerful typhoon to hit China in
five decades, slammed into
the country's southeastern
coast; it ultimately killed
more than 440 people.
One year ago: A draft of
a secret study obtained by
The Associated Press found
that air traffic controllers'
work schedules often led
to chronic fatigue, making
them less alert and endangering the safety of the
country's air traffic system.
A power plant operator in
southern Japan restarted
a nuclear reactor, the first
to begin operating under
new safety requirements
following the Fukushima
disaster.

Decision signed for stream
restoration project
MARIENVILLE – The
Allegheny National Forest’s Marienville Ranger
District has issued a decision on the East Branch
Spring Creek Large Wood
Restoration Project. The
project was developed collaboratively with the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy and other partners
to improve aquatic habitat
diversity, stabilize eroding
stream banks, and restore
floodplain function along
portions of the East Branch
Spring Creek in Elk County’s Highland Township.
This project would also
protect part of an ATV trail
that experienced erosion
and loss of surfacing from
flooding in 2014.
“The East Branch
Spring Creek is a highquality coldwater fishery
with naturally reproducing
brook trout populations,”
said
District
Ranger
Rob Fallon. “This project
will help return natural
amounts of large wood to
the stream that would increase and improve brook
trout habitat.” The project
would add large woody materials (trees and logs with
root wads attached) to various locations on a mile of
the stream. Large wood is
important for the creation
of deep pools for fish, storage of organic material
and sediment, and dissipation of flood energy. Fallon
also said that the Western
Pennsylvania Conservancy
and Forest Service were
recently trained in the benefits of using root wads and
entire trees for fish habitat
in larger streams.
The decision memo,
and a complete description of the actions and
maps are available at:
http://www.fs.usda.gov/
project/?project=46399

about this project, please

Treese,

Leader at 814-927-5759 or

US women gymnasts, Phelps, Ledecky all golden again
RIO DE JANEIRO
(AP) — Good old Michael
Phelps, golden again.
For teenagers Katie Ledecky and Simone
Biles, their star turns in
the Summer Olympics
might be just beginning.
From the pool to the
gymnastics floor, Team
USA had nice day at the
Rio de Janeiro Games.
Not all the American
stars were winners Tuesday, though. Serena Williams lost on the tennis
court and the U.S. women’s soccer team gave up a
late goal and ended up in
a draw with Colombia.
But a new generation
of U.S. athletes is ready
to take up the banner of
Olympic standard-bearer
from Phelps, a grizzled
veteran at 31.
Phelps earned his
20th career gold medal after taking the 200-meter
butterfly. He erased the
bad memories from his
loss in the same race in
London to South African
Chad le Clos.
Phelps got off to a
rousing start at the Rio
Games by leading his
4x100 freestyle team to
the gold medal on Sunday.
On Tuesday, Phelps’
face bared a familiar
scowl as he walked out
on to the deck. He held
off Japan’s Masato Sakai
by four-hundredths of a
second, with Hungary’s
Tamas Kenderesi taking
the bronze.
His 21st gold came
later Tuesday night after
swimming the anchor leg
on the 4x200-meter relay.
Ledecky strode atop
the medal podium again
with a bright smile after
taking gold for winning
the 200-meter freestyle.
Sarah Sjostrom of Sweden claimed the silver and
Emma McKeon of Australia took the bronze.
Ledecky, just 19, won
her second gold. At this
pace, she could challenge
Phelps’ medal haul someday.
At the other end of
Olympic Park, the U.S.
women’s
gymnastics
team captured a second
straight gold with a highflying and dominating
performance.
The triumph was nev-
er in doubt, their score
of 184.897 at the Rio
Games was more than
eight points clear of the
field. The day was capped
by the 19-year-old Biles,
a fan favorite, whose
boundary-pushing
floor
exercise showed just how
far ahead they are of everyone else.
Biles, Lauren Hernandez, Gabby Douglas,
Madison Kocian and Aly
Raisman also gave retiring national team coordinator Martha Karolyi a
fitting send off with powerful performances on all
the apparatuses.
The
golden
girls
dubbed themselves “The
Final Five” in honor of
Karolyi’s retirement at
the end of the Olympics
and the fact that the format is changing for Tokyo
in 2020 so that only four
team members will take
part in the team competition.
The normally stern
Karolyi broke down in
tears when she was told
of the nickname the team
adopted.
“I think at this mo-
ment we can say that that
the United States dominates the world of gymnastics,” Karolyi said.
Russia took the silver
medal and China earned
bronze.
Other highlights from
Day 4 at the Rio Games:
MURKY POOL : At
Maria Lenk Aquatics Center, there was more buzz
over the color of the water than the diving competition. It had turned a
murky green since Monday night’s events. Chen
Ruolin and Liu Huixia
didn’t seem to care about
the color. They won the
women’s 10-meter synchronized platform title to
make China 3-for-3 in the
competition so far.
SOUR SERENA :
Williams shanked shots
all over the court in getting upset by Elina Svitolina of Ukraine. The topranked American won’t
get a chance to defend
the gold she won in London. Williams looked out
of sorts and irritated, accumulating 37 unforced
errors. She had five double-faults in one game
alone in the 6-4, 6-3 loss
to the 20th-ranked Svitolina. Williams wiped her
forehead, picked up her
rackets and headed back
quickly to the locker room.
Svitolina, who had never
before played in an Olympics, smiled and stuck her
arms out in front of her,
palms up, as if waking up
from a dream.
SCORING
ON
SOLO : Catalina Usme
beat U.S. goalie Hope Solo
on a pair of free kicks to
draw Colombia to a 2-2 tie
with the United States.
The first, in the 26th minute, was Colombia’s first
ever Olympic goal, and
first ever goal against the
United States. Team USA
still emerged at the top of
Group G of the women’s
soccer tournament and
will play in the quarterfinals.
MEDAL STRIPPED :
A Ukrainian javelin thrower was stripped of his silver
medal from the 2012 London Olympics, becoming
the latest athlete disquali-
fied after the retesting of
stored doping samples.
Oleksandr
Pyatnytsya
tested positive for the steroid turinabol and was
retroactively disqualified
from the London Games
and ordered to return his
medal, the International
Olympic Committee said.
RUGBY STUNNER
: Sonny Bill Williams was
helped off with an ankle injury during New Zealand’s
shocking 14-12 loss to Japan in its first game of rugby sevens. New Zealand
is a 12-time world series
champion and one of the
top contenders for the first
rugby medals awarded at
an Olympics in 92 years.
PELE IMPROVING:
Pele tweeted that he hopes
to appear at the closing
ceremony after missing
the opening because of his
health. The soccer great
was the organizers’ preferred choice to light the
cauldron, but first cited
sponsorship commitments
and later health concerns
for staying away.

Polanco, rookie Kuhl lead
Pirates to 6-4 victory over Padres
PITTSBURGH (AP) —
Gregory Polanco hit a tiebreaking three-run homer
and Chad Kuhl pitched six
innings for the win after
being called up from the
minor leagues as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the
San Diego Padres 6-4 on
Tuesday night.
Polanco’s
three-run
blast deep into the seats in
right-center off Luis Perdomo was his 16th homer and
it put the Pirates ahead 5-2
and keyed a four-run sixth
inning that included Francisco Cervelli’s RBI double.
Kuhl (2-0) allowed two
runs and five hits while
striking out four and walking four. He made four
starts with the Pirates earlier this season and was
6-3 with a 2.37 ERA in 16
starts for Indianapolis.
David Freese had three
hits and scored three runs
and Josh Harrison added
two hits for the Pirates,
who improved to 4-6 in a
12-game stretch against
teams who are at least 10
games under .500.
Pittsburgh remained
three games out of the second NL wild card.
Tony Watson pitched
a scoreless ninth for his
third save.
Perdomo (5-6) was
tagged for six runs — five
earned — in five innings.
The rookie walked three
and struck out three as his
ERA rose to 6.80.
Jabari Blash had two
hits and two RBIs, including a solo home run
off Watson in the ninth,
for the Padres. Wil Myers
hit his team-leading 22nd
homer, a solo shot off Antonio Bastardo in the eighth
inning, and Yangervis Solarte had two hits.
Kuhl gave up both
runs in the first inning
when Alex Dickerson hit
an RBI double and scored
on Jabari Blash’s single.
The Pirates tied it 2-2
as Sean Rodriguez hit a
run-scoring groundout in

PFL, St. Marys Ins.
win in men’s softball
The PFL defeated Sinterite by a 38-1 score in
St. Marys men’s softball
league action.
The PFL outscored
Sinterite 20-0 in the first
inning and 13-1 in the
second inning for a 33-1
lead. The PFL added five
runs in the third inning.
Sinterite failed to score in
the top of the fourth as the
PFL won 38-1.
B. Emmert and C.

the second inning and he
added an RBI single in the
fourth.
Braves 2, Brewers 1
MILWAUKEE
(AP)
— Tyrell Jenkins pitched
six strong innings, Nick
Markakis and Adonis Garcia drove in a run each in
the seventh inning and the
Atlanta Braves beat the
Milwaukee Brewers 2-1 on
Tuesday night.
Jenkins (2-2) allowed
one run and three hits in
six innings. He walked
three and struck out three
in his sixth career start
and 10th major league appearance. The right-hander has a 1.00 ERA over his
past three starts.
His only mistake was
Ryan Braun’s home run in
the fourth.
Mauricio
Cabrera
pitched the ninth for his
third save.
Jonathan Villar hit
into a 4-6-3 double play in
the eighth, but the Brewers challenged the force out
at second and the call was
overturned because shortstop Erick Aybar missed
the base. Braves interim
manager Brian Snitker
then asked the umpires to
review Manny Piña’s slide
into second base, and the
slide was deemed legal.
Chaz Roe took over
and got the final out when
Orlando Arcia grounded to
third and Piña ran into the
tag.
The victory was the
Braves’ 10th in the last 14
games, including six in the
last seven.
Wily Peralta (4-8) was
recalled Monday when
the Brewers placed righthander Junior Guerra on
the 15-day disabled list
with right elbow inflammation.
Peralta matched his
season highs with six innings and six strikeouts.
He allowed two harmless
hits through six innings,
but then ran into trouble in
the top of the seventh when
the Braves went ahead.
Peralta walked Freddie Freeman before Matt
Kemp singled. Markakis
followed with an RBI hit
that chased Peralta. Garcia welcomed reliever Michael Blazek with a runscoring hit.
Peralta, the 2016 opening day starter, was optioned to Triple-A Colorado
Springs on June 12. He
made 13 starts before the
demotion and had just two
quality starts, none in his
last six.
Reds 7, Cardinals 4
ST. LOUIS (AP) —
Adam Duvall drove in two
runs and Tyler Holt’s double drove in the game-winning run as the Cincinnati
Reds beat the St. Louis
Cardinals 7-4 on Tuesday
night.
Holt’s double off Matt
Bowman (1-4) broke a 4-4
tie in the eighth. He then
scored from second on an
infield hit by Billy Hamilton after Cardinals second
baseman Matt Carpenter
bobbled a barehanded attempt to get the speedy
Hamilton at first.
Duvall’s two-run single
in the third broke a career
high 0-for-18 skid and gave
the Reds a 2-1 lead.
Joey Votto had two
hits, an RBI and a walk
and has hit safely in 18 of
his last 19 games.
Reds lefty Brandon
Finnegan struck out five,
but walked six in six innings. Michael Lorenzen
(2-0) gave up a run in two
innings of relief and Raisel
Iglesias picked up his first
save.
Yadier Molina’s solo
home run in the second inning broke a career-high
13-inning scoreless streak
for Finnegan. It also extended Molina’s streak for
reaching base safely to 22
games.
Matt Holliday’s solo
homer in the fifth tied the
game 3-3.
Cardinals right-hander Mike Leake failed to
record a clean frame in
six innings, surrendering
a season-high four walks.
Still, the three runs allowed were a much better
showing than his two previous starts against his
former club when he gave
up six and seven runs, respectively.
Diamondbacks 5,
Mets 3
NEW YORK (AP) —
Once they got Zack Greinke back on the mound,
the Arizona Diamondbacks
looked a lot better than a
last-place team.
The ace won in his return from a six-week stay
on the disabled list, Michael Bourn hit a go-ahead
triple in the seventh inning
and the Diamondbacks
rallied past the New York
Mets 5-3 Tuesday night.
“It just gets guys invigorated,” Arizona manager
Chip Hale said.

On July 31, Brooke VanAlstine of St. Marys, while
fishing on the streams of the East Branch/Clarion rivers, reeled in her biggest catch yet, a 23-inch rainbow
trout, seen here. She caught the trout with some patience and salmon eggs. Brooke has been fishing for
approximately three years now and has a very accomplished history as a fisherwoman. Just two years ago
she had another big catch featured in The Daily Press,
an 18-inch brook trout she had caught. This rainbow
trout is by far the biggest catch of her fishing career
thus far though and she will not soon forget the moment as she is having Bob Perneski, taxidermist and
owner of Wild Side Taxidermy in St. Marys mount this
nice catch for her.

Usme scores 2 goals in Colombia’s 2-2 draw with US
MANAUS, Brazil (AP) —
In the first few moments Hope
Solo had to reflect following the
U.S. team’s 2-2 draw with Colombia on Tuesday, she already
had perspective on the two
goals that Catalina Usme got
past her.
“I’ve been around the game
long enough to know that it’s
part of the position,” Solo said.
“I don’t wish it on anybody. Being a goalkeeper is extremely
difficult. But I’ve been around
long enough to know that these
things do happen, they’ve happened to me before.
“You just hope that they
happen few and far between.”
The draw, while disappointing, did not have much
impact on the defending Olympic champions. The United
States still emerged at the top
of Group G and will play in the
quarterfinals.
Usme beat Solo with a pair
of free kicks. The first, in the
26th minute, was Colombia’s
first ever Olympic goal, and
first ever goal against the United States.
The second came from a
tight angle as time ran out.
“I have also learned to
have a short-term memory,”
Solo said. “So I’m just going to
put this behind me and move
on, because there’s going to be
some great football in the coming games and I’m going to have
to come up big and keep our
team in it.”
At 18, Mallory Pugh became
the youngest player to score for
the United States in an Olympics with her goal in the 59th
minute, giving the Americans
a 2-1 lead. Olympic newcomer
Crystal Dunn also scored.
The U.S. women’s team, the
reigning World Cup champions,
is vying for its fourth straight
Olympic gold medal.
“It is what it is,” United
States captain Carli Lloyd said.
“I’d rather two goals get let in
like that in this game, than in
a quarterfinal, a semifinal or
a final match. Do we all know
that we can play a lot better? Of
course. But we met our objective and it’s important to stay
positive and take what we can
out of these games.”
Pugh came into the game
as a first-half substitute for
midfielder Megan Rapinoe, who
played in her first match since
having ACL surgery in December.
In addition to Rapinoe,
United States coach Jill Ellis
made several other changes
to her starting lineup, sitting
regular starters Alex Morgan,
Tobin Heath and Meghan Klingenberg. Julie Johnston, who
sat out the second game with
groin injury, was also on the
bench.
Morgan came in after the
half for Lloyd. Pugh, who hurt
her ankle in the 2-0 opening
win against New Zealand, went
in when Rapinoe was pulled in
the 33rd minute as temperatures hovered in the upper 80s.
“I felt really good,” Rapinoe
said. “A little rusty in certain
moments. I still have to get that
game fitness back, but overall I
felt really good.”
The match in Brazil’s
Amazon rainforest was an announced sellout, with many
fans awaiting the late game
between host Brazil and South
Africa. The crowd was on the
side of the underdog Colombians from the start and cheered
wildly when Usme scored her
first goal. The free kick bounced
between Solo’s legs.
The fans also taunted Solo
by chanting “Zika! Zika!” The
jeers have accompanied the
U.S. goalkeeper throughout the
Olympic tournament because of
posts she made on social media
about the virus that is spread
by mosquitoes.
Usme’s goals were just the
fifth and sixth that Solo has
PGC appoints Cramer
Northwest Region Director
HARRISBURG — The
Pennsylvania Game Commission has appointed a
new director of the Northwest Region Office in
Franklin.
Richard Cramer, who
has spent many of his 25
years with the Game Commission working within the
Northwest Region, has been
named director of the region
office.
Cramer fills the vacancy created when former
region director Keith Harbaugh retired.
Game Commission Executive Director R. Matthew
Hough said Cramer will fulfill his new role nicely.
“Whether through the
performance of his duties
as a wildlife conservation
officer in Forest County, a
land manager responsible
for habitat management on
10 state game lands totaling more than 45,000 acres
in the region, or a land
management supervisor in
the region office, Rich has
excelled in his service to
the Game Commission and
citizens of the Commonwealth,” Hough said. “He
has a broad range of experience with the agency, holding several diverse positions

Richard Cramer
providing a rare breadth of
experience found in few if
any others, and I’m proud
to announce him as region
director.”
Cramer grew up near
the small town of McKean
in Erie County.
After graduating from
Edinboro University in
1988 with a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Cramer served an
internship in marketing
with the Orlando Magic of
the National Basketball Association.
He began his Game
Commission career when he
allowed this year. The veteran
goalkeeper, who has a record
102 shutouts in international
play, had not allowed a goal in
the first two Olympic matches.
“The most important thing
for me is not the goals or the
making history,” Usme said.
“The most important thing is
the teamwork.”
Dunn, playing in her first
Olympics with the national
team, tied the match with a
rebound after Lloyd’s shot
bounced off the crossbar in the
41st minute. Pugh’s goal slid
between numerous Colombia
players before finding the back
of the net in the second half and
it looked as if the Americans
might escape Manaus with a
win.
Colombia had already been
eliminated from the Olympics with losses in its first two
matches. On Monday, coach Fabian Taborda said Usme had an
injured left knee, while Lady
Andrade and Carolina Arias
were suffering from “exhaustion.” But all three started.
Colombia is considered one
of South America’s top teams,
along with neighboring Brazil. Las Cafeteras, as they’re
known, surprised many when
they advanced to the knockout
round in the World Cup last
Carr, Cooper build chemistry
for Raiders on and off field
NAPA, Calif. (AP) —
When Derek Carr and
Amari Cooper arrived at
training camp for the Oakland Raiders this summer
they had a simple request.
Oakland’s star quarterback and game-breaking receiver wanted to
spend the few weeks at
the team’s summer home
at a wine country hotel as
roommates, figuring any
extra time together talking football or just life
in general can only benefit them once the season
starts.
“We’re having a good
time, man,” Carr said.
“It’s good to come back
and just talk ball with
him. He tells me his goals,
I share my stuff with him.
... I know how he thinks.
I know how he likes to go
about his business. I know
what he likes to do off the
field. He and I should
have the best relationship
ever.”
Carr and Cooper live
close together when the
team is not in Napa and
often get together for informal throwing sessions
during the offseason. The
extra time together at
camp allows them to get
to know more about each
other’s family and goals
and made the talkative
Carr even closer with the

year.
The Amazonia Arena was
built for the men’s World Cup in
2014. Since then, the stadium
has seen few big events, except
for some lower-division soccer
matches and religious events,
until the Olympics.
The crowd of more than
42,000, unheard of for a women’s match in Brazil, was electric when the home team took
the field in the late match.
Many in the crowd sported No.
10 jerseys, a nod to five-time
FIFA World Player of the Year
Marta.
In other matches Tuesday,
the final day of group play, Melissa Tancredi scored both goals
as Canada defeated Germany
2-1 in Brasilia.
The 10th-ranked Canadians will face No. 3 France in a
quarterfinal match in Sao Paulo on Friday. Les Bleus defeated
New Zealand 3-0 in Salvador on
Tuesday.
Michelle Heyman scored
twice as Australia defeated Zimbabwe 6-1 in Salvador. With the
win, the Matildas are assured a
spot in the quarterfinals. Zimbabwe was already eliminated.
The late games would determine the other quarterfinal
matchups.
to get even more in sync
when they hit the field for
practice and games.
“We have a lot more
time together,” Cooper
said. “We have time to
talk about things, talk
about what we want to accomplish when we come
out for practice. We have
time to talk about the
script because every practice is scripted. How he
wants me to run certain
routes. That’s the biggest
thing. We have more time
to talk about things.”
The Raiders coaching
staff was very receptive
to the idea. Offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave
said it reminded him of
his playing days in San
Francisco when 49ers
quarterback Steve Young
and tight end Brent Jones
roomed together the night
before games.
Musgrave hopes this
leads to even more success on the field.
“It’s just good, as
those two young players
grow together, to be more
productive,”
Musgrave
said. “They take initiative
to get better. ... They like
football, and they want to
be great.”
Carr and Cooper took
little time in their first
season together to strike
up chemistry that has the
Raiders optimistic that
they have a dynamic passing duo in place for years
to come.
Cooper had 72 catches
for 1,070 yards and six
touchdowns as a rookie,
becoming the first Raiders receiver in a decade
to reach the 1,000-yard
mark in a season.
Those numbers could
have been even higher,
except for the fact that
Cooper dropped a leaguehigh 18 passes, according to Pro Football Focus.
Cooper was also slowed
late in the season by a foot
injury and only topped 20
yards receiving once in
the final four games.
With his foot healed
and a full season together
in the same offense, Cooper and Carr are looking
for even bigger numbers
in 2016.
“Now, it’s those little
details that we always
talk about,” Carr said.
“’Hey, make sure you get
to the top of the numbers.
Hey, whenever you turn,
I’m throwing it right at
the back of your helmet,
so when you turn around,
that’s where it’s going to
be.’ Those things that we
can get to, that’s the next
step.”
NOTES: Rookie S
Karl Joseph said the
coaches might hold him
out of the preseason opener on Friday at Arizona as
he continues to work his
way back from knee surgery that ended his final
season at West Virginia
last year.
Te-ball? Tim Tebow will try
to play professional baseball
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.
(AP) — With professional
football not working out,
Tim Tebow is going to give
baseball a try.
The 2007 Heisman
Trophy winner and former
NFL
first-round
draft pick plans to hold a
workout for Major League
Baseball teams to scout
him. Tebow last played organized baseball in high
school.
ESPN first reported
the news.
Agent Brodie Van Wagenen, the co-head of CAA
Baseball, said in a statement that the workout is
not a publicity stunt.
“His work ethic is
unprecedented, and his
passion for the game is
infectious. He knows the
challenges that lie ahead
of him given his age and
experience, but he is determined to achieve his
goal of playing in the
Major Leagues,” Van Wagenen said.
Tebow, who turns 29
on Sunday, has been training in Scottsdale with for-
mer major league catcher
Chad Moeller.
“I am beyond impressed with Tim’s athleticism and swing, and it
goes without saying that
he has shown a high level
of discipline and strong
work ethic,” Moeller said
in a statement released
by CAA. “I see bat speed
and power and real baseball talent. I truly believe
Tim has the skill set and
potential to achieve his
goal of playing in the Major Leagues, and based on
what I have seen over the
past two months, it could
happen relatively quickly.”
Former All-Star slugger Gary Sheffield came to
bat for Tebow on Twitter.
“I spent time with Tim
Tebow in the cages,” Sheffield wrote, “he’s a NATURAL. Tim has IT.”
Tebow won the Heisman and two national
championships with the
University of Florida and
was drafted in the first
round by the Denver Broncos in in 2010. He has not
played in the NFL since
2012 with the New York
Jets. He went to training
camp with the New England Patriots in 2013 and
the Philadelphia Eagles
in 2015 but was cut before
the season each time.
Tebow last played
competitive baseball more
than a decade ago, hitting
.494 as a junior for Nease
High School in Florida.
He didn’t play baseball as
a senior, concentrating instead on football.
“He was a six-tool
player,” Tebow’s high
school coach Greg “Boo”
Mullins said in a 2013
interview with The Sporting News. “He has arm
strength, he could run, he
could hit, he could hit for
power, he could field, but
his character made him
that six-tool guy.”
John Fox, the Chicago
Bears coach who coached
at Denver when Tebow
played there, said “good
for him” when told of his
decision to try baseball.

“I didn’t get things
done,” Oberg said. “If I
execute the right pitches,
I hopefully get the results
that I want. Unfortunately,
today I wasn’t able to do
that.”
Tyler Chatwood allowed two runs in 6 2/3 innings and struck out a season-high eight for Colorado.
Charlie Blackmon homered and doubled, rookie
David Dahl tripled to extend his hitting streak to
15 games, and Nolan Arenado drove in his NationalLeague leading 90th and
91st RBIs for the Rockies.
manager Walt Weiss said.
“But we didn’t avoid the
big innings, late. We have
to be able to do that.”
On Tuesday, Texas had
four consecutive hits off
Scott Oberg (0-1) as Carlos
Beltran drove in a run with
a single and Beltre tied the
game with a two-run double. Andrus gave his team
the lead when he drove in
Beltre with his second hit
of the game.
Colorado’s shaky bullpen performance comes
after Carlos Estevez blew
two ninth-inning leads in
four days and was taken
out of the closer role.

DEAR ANNIE®
COPYRIGHT 2016 CREATORS SYNDICATE, INC.
Dear Annie: Our eldest son is getting married in three weeks to a gal who
is 13 1/2 years younger (23). She has
never been married but has a 4-yearold. She also has bipolar disorder and
has left him at least three times. The
most recent time was in March. She
took off with a co-worker for the coast,
halfway across the country. After a couple of weeks, she decided to call our
son, and he said he wanted her to come
back. I believe that the guy ditched her
and she didn’t have anywhere to go.
Long story short, she is now pregnant, and her parents are wanting her
to marry. As far as our son knows, the
baby is his. We all feel that she will continually leave, and we have doubts that
the baby is his. Our son was married
before and has two children. He asked
the eldest, who is 12, to be his best
man, but his son said no, as he does
not like her. No one on his side likes
the gal, and we are wondering whether
we need to attend the wedding. My
husband says we shouldn’t because it
would show support. I told our son we
would go but are not in support of the
marriage.
I feel we should attend only because he is our son. It is a tiny wedding
and has been quickly put together. Her
parents are doing a barbecue for the reception, but we will not attend that. Our
son is a very kindhearted person who
helps out everyone. His first wife was
from another country and was not good
to him. Should we go or stay home? -Reluctant Mother of the Groom
Dear Reluctant: Go to your son’s
wedding. It’s a regrettable situation, to
be sure, but you’d regret it much more if
you were not to be there for him. He’s a
kindhearted and emotionally vulnerable
C R O S SWO R D
person, susceptible to other people’s
manipulations. As much as you want
to express your opposition to his life,
if you were not to be around, he’d feel
isolated and only fall further into this
trap. Keep the door open for him. It’s
possible to support him without supporting the partnership. He needs you.
Dear Annie: A very close friend
has a daughter who got married quickly
because of a pregnancy. She and her
husband are stable and very happy. I
don’t know the modern etiquette but
would like to buy them a wedding present, as would a few other close friends.
We would like to do this to show love,
happiness and joy for them. We don’t
want to pick out patterns or anything
like that without knowing her tastes.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
-- Need Assistance in Florida
Dear Need Assistance: Cash
might not be the most fun gift to pick
out, but it’s the one people most like to
receive -- especially if they’re new parents. If you’d like to give a more traditional gift, such as something for their
home, ask her mother what sorts of
kitchenware they might like. Whatever
the gift, your thoughtfulness will shine
through and the couple will no doubt
appreciate it.
Dear Annie: I’m responding to
the letter from “Meaty Mike.” He needs
to embrace his vegan love mate! I’ve
been married to a staunch vegetarian for over 33 years, and it’s the best
choice I’ve ever made. My diet has become healthier, and I still get my meat.
I have a gas grill on the deck outside
for my meat meals, which I use even in
the winter. And I’ve developed recipes
to cook meat without smelling up the
house.
Meaty Mike’s guilt trip is his own,
so he should just own it and move on.

GEMINI
(May 21 to June 20)
While Mars is opposite your sign
for the next six weeks, it’s easy
to be impatient with others. (They
seem to be so annoying!) After that,
things return to normal.
CANCER
(June 21 to July 22)
You’re keen to work hard on the
job to show others what you can
do. Be careful you’re not too
bossy; ultimately, this is antiproductive.
LEO
(July 23 to Aug. 22)
Competitive sports might be a
strong focus for you in the next six
weeks. You intend to go after what
you want in terms of social plans,
vacations and romantic intentions.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
Be patient with chaos and increased activity at home, because
by October, this insanity will be
history. Just go forward one step
at a time. Relax.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
Your communication skills are
strong and forthright now, and they
will stay that way until October. Use
this to study, sell and write, but
don’t overwhelm anyone.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
Your determination to boost your
income is admirable. The trick is to
reduce your spending. No matter
how much you earn, if you spend
more, you’re in debt.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
You love the outdoors. Since Mars
is in your sign until October, grab
every chance you can to pursue
physical sports and outdoor activities, because you need this outlet!
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
Secret love affairs, as well as behind-the-scenes activities, are your
focus for the next six weeks. When
in doubt, take the high road, because secrets eventually come out.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
Competition with a friend or with a
group through physical sports will
be strong in the next six weeks.
This same energy makes you a
group leader.
PISCES
(Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your ambition is aroused much
more than usual until October. You
can use this energy to accomplish
something important. Be aware of
this.
YOU BORN TODAY You have
great communication skills. You
are confident and outgoing, and
have strong humanitarian values.
Initially, this year begins quietly,
which is why you might not see
major changes until next year;
however, it will be a year of growth,
construction and building. Do what
you can to reduce your debt and
strengthen your financial position,
because you are building for your
future!

Seneca claims injection
well 'exceeds' standards
In a statement issued
Tuesday, Seneca Resources
claims its proposed "injection well" in Highland
Township "exceeds" federal
standards.
"We worked with the
federal
Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)
for more than 18 months
to review approximately
2,600 comments from the
public before we established our final plan – one
that exceeds federal standards for injection wells,
protects nearby water
sources and the public and
meets our business needs,"
Rob Boulware said in a
statement. He heads stakeholder relations for Seneca,
the exploration and production wing of National
Fuel Gas of Buffalo.
His statement comes
as the Highland Township
Board of Supervisors possibly considers action tonight
to repeal a 2013 ordinance
that bans injection wells.
The supervisors meet at 7
p.m. tonight at the township building in James
City. The meeting is open
to the public.
Seneca last year filed
a federal lawsuit to challenge the validity of the
Highland ordinance. Erie
Federal Magistrate Judge
Susan Baxter has called
for a "status conference"
next Monday to receive an
update on the suit.
According to Boulware,
"the EPA permit was issued after thoroughly assessing and evaluating
each inquiry" presented by
residents.
"Protection of the environment is a fundamental
responsibility that should
never be ignored," Boulware said. "For more than
100 years, Seneca Resources has been a steward of its
lands and we have worked
alongside the communities
in which we operate and
federal, state and local regulatory agencies to foster a
culture of respect for and
protection of the environment.
"We have exercised
that philosophy in regard
to our proposed injection
well, including performing
a two-year study across
our approximately 780,000
net acres of oil and gas interests in Pennsylvania to
locate reservoirs with the
best conditions for injection."
Boulware said "the
Underground
Injection
Control (UIC) program is
currently administered by
the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA). The EPA has five
UIC well classifications."
He said "disposal wells
are listed as Class II. The
Class II wells are further
defined as: Associated with
Oil and Natural Gas (IIR –
enhanced recovery and IID
– brine disposal)."
According to Boulware,
representatives from the
local Citizens Advocating
for Clean Healthy Environment (CACHE) have
claimed that there are no
injection wells in the area.
"They couldn’t be more
wrong," he said. "Pennsylvania has 1,500-plus Class
II injection wells. A large
majority (about 700) wells
are located in Elk County
and approximately 100
of those Elk County wells
are already located within
Highland Township."
He said he has a map
of Highland Township that
shows an overlay of UIC
Class II injection wells.
"CACHE has often cited water pollution as one
of their main concerns,"
Boulware said. "There are
about 700 UIC Class II injection wells located in Elk
County and approximately
100 within Highland Township. Many of these injection wells have been operating for several decades.
Despite the large number
of UIC Class II wells already locating in and operating in the area, the EPA
has not cited any cases of
water pollution related to
existing wells in Highland
Township."
Boulware
said
a
CACHE representative as
recently as July 29 claimed
that injection wells will
cause drought.
"There is no scientific
or even antidotal evidence
that supports this claim,"
he said.
"CACHE claims injection wells will cause earthquakes," he said. "The
potential for earthquakes
was an issue scrutinized
by EPA in its review of our
permit application and it
was deemed to not be a significant concern.
Boulware said Pennsylvania is "geologically
different than Ohio and
Oklahoma which have
experienced earthquakes
that are potentially related
to injection wells."
He said the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) will
soon release guidelines regarding injection wells and
seismic events.
"In short, the DEP will
halt injections if certain
seismic thresholds are exceeded," he said.
Boulware said Seneca
Resources and its subsidiary-- Highland Field Services, LLC-- use innovative
strategies for managing
shale gas wastewater and
residuals.
"We have invested $20
million in infrastructure—
including a treatment
plant, a centralized storage facility and a pipeline
delivery network to significantly reduce the truck
traffic and the amount of
fresh water we use in drilling operations," he said.
"The proposed injection
well is part of this water
management plan."
He said "localized injection wells allow operators
to eliminate thousands of
long-haul truck deliveries
– thus reducing spill opportunities."
"Through recycling and
proven storage, we are creating a more sustainable
management plan that
protects the environment,
supports local economies
and creates local jobs,"
Boulware said.
