Logan addresses liquor
lawsuit ‘alter or amend’
By BRIAN GRAVES
Banner Staff Writer
An argument before Chancellor
Jerri S. Bryant on the motion to
“alter or amend” the decision in favor
of the city of Cleveland concerning
liquor-by-the-drink revenues could be
heard within the next 10 days,
according to Cleveland attorney
James Logan.
Logan addressed Bradley County
commissioners Monday night about
where the case now stands.
He apologized, saying he went
ahead with the filing without asking,
but felt the issue needed to be moved
on quickly. He added should Bryant
stand by her ruling, he would ask if
Inside Today
the county wanted to file an appeal.
“I thought it was very important to
immediately respond to the decision,”
Logan said.
He explained this action was not a
motion to appeal.
“A motion to alter or amend merely
seeks to have the court reflect on the
decision based upon factors that we
bring to their attention,” he said.
“One of those oftentimes is overlooking perhaps a fact which has been
presented without dispute or overlooking significant authority that
would support a position which
would be different from that which
the court reached.”

Ron Clark Jr. is recognized as one of the most
innovational teachers in the country, if not the
world. He was the guest speaker Monday morning at the joint convocation of the Cleveland,
Polk and Bradley County school systems.
Clark provided emotion, energy, humor and

He described his philosophy of teaching,
which he has developed from his early days in
South Carolina, to innovative programs he used

The Cleveland Board of Education capped a
busy day with its first board meeting of the
new school year Monday evening at BlytheBower Elementary School.
All seven board members had attended the
school system’s annual convocation at North
Cleveland Church of God earlier in the afternoon, following an inspirational talk by former
Disney Teacher of the Year Ron Clark Jr.
Monday morning.
Clark’s presentation was to Cleveland,
Bradley County and Polk County teachers, as
well as administrators and board members of
the three school systems.
There were few major items on the school
board agenda, but spirited discussions lengthened the meeting. The board also recognized
13 teachers who retired following the conclusion of the 2014-15 school year.
A few of these new retirees have signed parttime contracts to assist through this new
school year.
Architect Brian Templeton of the Upland
Design Group in Middle Tennessee attended
the board meeting.
Templeton brought a revamped design for
the playing floor of the new Raider Arena being
constructed. As requested, the design has
been tweaked to cut the boundary around the
court from three feet to two feet.
Templeton also discussed progress of the
gymnasium’s construction, and discussed
ongoing design plans for the city’s proposed
elementary school on Georgetown Road.
The proposed elementary school will be for a
core of 700 students, and Upland Design is

California wildfire jumps containment line
MIDDLETOWN, Calif. (AP) — As
firefighters battled a massive
Northern California wild land
blaze threatening numerous
homes, some of the 13,000 people
urged to flee their residences were
spending what may be just one of
many nights in evacuation shelters.
The blaze that has charred
nearly 97 square miles of brush
and timber, jumped a highway
Monday that had served as a containment line. Its rapid growth
caught firefighters off guard and
shocked residents.
Vicki Estrella, who has lived in
the area for 22 years, stayed at a
Red Cross shelter at Middletown
High School along with her husband and their dog.
“It’s amazing the way that thing
spread,” Estrella said. “There was
smoke 300 feet in the air.”
Cooler weather had helped
crews build a buffer between the
wildfire and some of the thousands of homes it threatened as it
tore through drought-withered
brush in Lake County that hadn’t
burned in years.
But Monday afternoon erratic
wind blew hot embers north of
Highway 20 ignited several fires
across the highway north of the
city of Clear Lake.
“There were too many (spot
fires) for us to pick up,” Battalion
Chief Carl Schwettmann of the
California Department of Forestry
and Fire Protection told the San
Francisco Chronicle. “With these
drought-stricken fuels, it’s just
moving at an extremely high rate
of speed.”
At least two dozen homes have
been destroyed over the past few
days and more than 13,000 people forced from their homes or
warned to leave.
The fire — the largest blaze in
drought-stricken California —
roughly tripled in size over the
weekend, generating its own
winds that fanned the flames
and reduced thousands of acres
of manzanita shrubs and other
brush to barren land in hours.
“There’s a lot of old growthtype vegetation and four years of
drought to dry it all out,” said
Lynne Tolmachoff, a spokeswoman for the California
Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection. “It was ready to go.”
The fire was burning in the
Lower Lake area, about 100
miles north of San Francisco and
10 miles from Clear Lake, the
largest freshwater lake entirely
within California and a popular
spot for boaters and campers.
Fire officials said no homes
around the lake were threatened.
“I’m overwhelmed,” Donna
McDonald, of Clear Lake, said at
a high school that had been
turned into a shelter. “I was very
happy at one point when I saw
no smoke at all. Then all of a
sudden it just flared up real big
again.”
Layna Rivas, of Clearlake
Oaks, evacuated her home over
the weekend and wanted to get
back to feed her chickens.
“You have to have that let go
feeling and know everything is
going to be OK,” she said. “My
place is going to be safe, my animals are going to be safe.”
Numerous other wildfires in
California, Washington state and
Oregon took off as the effects of
drought and summer heat
turned the West Coast combustible. California blazes killed
a firefighter last week and
injured four others.
Crews in the Lower Lake area
conducted controlled burns, setting fire to shrubs to rob the
blaze of fuel and protect some of
5,500 homes threatened. The fire
was burning in a rural area of
grasslands and steep hills.
The fire destroyed at least 24
homes and 26 outbuildings.
More fire crews were brought
in, bringing the number of firefighters to nearly 3,000. Two
more National Guard air tankers
were being brought in from
Colorado to drop retardant,
Tolmachoff said.
Crews battled 20 other wildfires
in California — some sparked by
lightning — though none as big as
the Lower Lake blaze. Mandatory
evacuations were also in place
farther north in a remote rural
area of the Shasta-Trinity
National Forest.
The Lower Lake fire is well
short of historic proportions. One
of the largest wildfires in
California history was a 2013
blaze that took out 400 square
miles of Sierra Nevada wilderness.

NEW YORK (AP) — The big
three U.S. airlines have all this
week banned the shipment of
hunting trophies, although it is
unclear how many — if any —
they have been carrying in
recent years.
Delta Air Lines was the first to
announce the change Monday,
saying that it would no longer
accept lion, leopard, elephant,
rhinoceros and buffalo trophies.
American Airlines and United
Airlines soon followed.
American spokesman Ross
Feinstein said it’s largely symbolic because his does not serve
Africa. United, which only has
one flight to Africa, also
announced Monday afternoon
its own restriction. United said
its records indicate no shipments of these types of trophies
in the past.
The moves come after an
American dentist killed a wellknown lion named Cecil in
Zimbabwe last month in an
allegedly illegal hunt, setting off
a worldwide uproar. The dentist,
Walter James Palmer, lives in
Minnesota, which is a major
hub for Delta.
As recently as May, Atlantabased Delta had said that it
would continue to allow such
shipments — as long as they
were legal. At the time, some
international carriers prohibited
such cargo.
Delta has the most flights of
any U.S. airline to Africa.
Several
foreign
airlines
announced similar bans last
week.
Delta would not answer questions from The Associated Press
about why the decision was
made now and how many hunting trophies it has shipped in
recent years. The company only
issued a 58-word statement noting that prior to Monday’s ban,
“Delta’s strict acceptance policy
called for absolute compliance
with all government regulations
regarding protected species.”
Henry Harteveldt, a travel
industry consultant, noted that
the airline was probably
responding to pressure following
the news of Cecil’s killing. The
airline was the subject of a petition on change.org to ban such
shipments.
“I don’t think there was much
of this shipment taking place, so
there is minimal revenue loss
and big PR gain for them,” he
said.
Prosecutor says white N.C. officer
panicked before shooting black man
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Both
sides in the voluntary manslaughter trial of a white Charlotte police
officer in the on duty shooting of a
black man agree bad choices led
up to the man’s death as he looked
for help after a car crash.
But during opening statements
Monday, Michael Greene, the
lawyer for Officer Randall Kerrick,
said bad choices by Jonathan
Ferrell caused his death, from
drinking and smoking marijuana
before the early morning crash to
beating on a woman’s door so hard
he dented it while seeking help and
charging officers before they could
even figure out what was wrong.
“This case is not about race. It
never was about race. This case
was about choices — Jonathan
Ferrell’s bad choices,” Greene said.
Prosecutor Arden Harris said
the bad choices were all made by
Kerrick, who had his gun drawn
and started shooting before taking
any time to figure out what was
going on.
Kerrick, 28, faces up to 11 years
in prison if convicted. He was
charged just hours after the
September 2013 shooting, before
black men died during arrests or
while in custody in Ferguson,
Missouri; North Charleston, South
Carolina; and Baltimore, among
other places, sparking a national
debate on police tactics.
Testimony was expected to
continue Tuesday. Jurors did see
a photo of Ferrell face down in
handcuffs in a pool of blood, but
have not heard from the other
officers on the scene and haven’t
seen the video from dashboard
cameras that lawyers for both
sides said will support their version of events. That video has
never been shown publicly.
The first witnesses called by
prosecutors Monday were friends
and family of Ferrell. Then prosecutors called Sarah McCartney,
the mother alone with her 1-yearold child who woke up to Ferrell
pounding on the door.
She opened the door for a
moment, thinking it was her husband, then slammed it shut,
locked it back and called police,
reporting a man trying to kick in
her door and break in her home.

Ringstaff initiatives 212 Degree Program;
Arnold recognized as Reward School
By LARRY C. BOWERS
Banner Staff Writer
New initiatives, new teachers, a
new logo, a new-car giveaway,
prospects of a new school year
and a huge new award for Arnold
Memorial School highlighted
Monday’s convocation for the
Cleveland City School System.
The program was held at North
Cleveland Church of God, following earlier programs by Bradley
County and Polk County schools,
and a combined gathering to hear
one of the nation’s most dynamic
education motivators.
Director of Schools Dr. Martin
Ringstaff announced the adminstration will forego the old
Employee of the Month presentation for a new initiative titled the
212 Degree Program.
Honorees each month will be
nominated by their peers for going
above and beyond what is expected of them.
Ringstaff named the first four
212 Degree selections of the year.
The very first award went to
Ringstaff’s assistant Andrea
Byerly. Not only does Byerly
assist the director, she also
assists other administrators,
Cleveland Board of Education
members and handles publicity
and public relations.
Another presentation went to
maintenance supervisor Hal
Taylor. Taylor has been commended throughout the school
system for completion of summer
projects, including extensive
upgrades at the new Denning
Center for Technology and
Careers.
Cleveland High instructor Jon
Souders received a third 212
Degree award for his guidance of
the school’s broadcasting program. The Cleveland High program was recently named the No.
1 program in the nation.
Cleveland High engineering and
design instructor Ben Williams
was named the fourth and final
recipient as Ringstaff kicked off
this new recognition program.
Williams led a group of
Cleveland High students through
the construction of an aquaponics
dome. The students took their
creation to Nicaragua this summer to assist a rural village.
Near the end of Monday’s convocation, Arnold Elementary
Principal Michael Chai was called
to the stage by Ringstaff and master of ceremonies Kelly Kiser. Chai
was given a decorated bag.
In the bag was a huge present
for Chai, but also for his entire
staff and students.
It was an announcement from
the Tennessee Department of
Education that the Cleveland elementary school has been selected
as a Reward School. This places
the school among the state’s top 5
percent.
This award is especially pleasing, since Arnold was listed
among the bottom 10 percent just
three years ago.
Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam
and Education Commissioner
Candice McQueen announced the
state’s 170 Reward Schools (for
2014-15) earlier in the day. These
Reward Schools span 59 districts
across Tennessee.
One Arnold teacher, Adam
Moss, is Southeast Tennessee’s
Teacher of the Year, and competing for Tennessee Teacher of the
Year honors.
Chai will be talking with the
Banner later this week about the
award, and the people at Arnold
Memorial who made it happen.
Kiser and Ringstaff also named
all the new teachers in the city
system, going from school to
school. They also recognized
teachers for their longevity with
Cleveland Schools with service
pins.
Several of the new teachers are
transfers from the Bradley
County School System.
“Look at all the people we’ve
saved,” joked Ringstaff.
Eighteen teachers were recognized for 10 years employment,
20 for 15 years, five are 20-year
veterans, four for 25 years, four
for 30, and three have been teaching Cleveland students for 35
years.
A special recognition was made
to Linda Lemons, who has taught
in the Cleveland School System
for 45 years, mostly at Cleveland
High.
Business manager Brenda
Carson, who retired recently, had
acknowledged Lemon’s years of
service and what she meant to
her during her school years.
Ringstaff and Kiser asked
teachers in the audience to stand
up if they had been in Lemon’s
class. More than 50 stood up.
Another big presentation
Monday was a new car to a
deserving teacher. Debbie Melton
of Ledford Automotive attended
the program for the event.
Asked why the dealership was
presenting the leased vehicle for a
teacher to use during the school
year, she said, “We do not have
the talent to teach our future
employees, so we’re going to support you guys.”
Winning the 2016 Chevrolet
Cruz for the year was Denning
Center’s Seth LaMagna. Each of
last year’s teachers of the year
received a key, and Lamanya’s
key started the car.
Cleveland radio personality
Steve Hartline kept the teachers
informed on progress of the car
giveaway.
Cleveland High School’s Drum
Line opened Monday’s program,
led by Kiser in his Raider costume.
The convocation also sported a
new logo saying, “The Greatest
School System on the Planet.”
Another initiative being started
by Ringstaff this year is “Raider
Challenge Questions.” The director of schools is asking students,
parents, staff and the general
public to e-mail questions about
the school system and/or education to the central office.
Ringstaff will go online and
attempt to answer as many of
these inquiries as possible.
The director of schools cautioned the teachers concerning
the days and months, ahead.
“It’s going to be crazy,” he said.
“Beginning tomorrow.”
“We’re going to have more kids
than we had last year, but we’ll
get them to the finish line (some
way).”
Ringstaff acknowledged that
many of the teachers were going
back to their schools Monday
afternoon, “because kids will be
coming by the droves on
Tuesday.”
He said he plans to send the
teachers an e-mail in three days,
asking, “Which one are you focusing on?”
“You’re going to treat every
child as well as you can,” he
emphasized.
Ringstaff was also planning to
visit all nine schools in the system
for today’s first day of classes.

In her first in-service address as
the director of Bradley County
Schools, Dr. Linda Cash urged
teachers to never give up on students — even when the going gets
tough.
Speaking to Bradley County
teachers before they began a joint
session with the Cleveland City
and Polk County school systems
Monday, she stressed the importance of making sure students
reach important performance
goals.
“I firmly believe that we have to
be all in to get them ready,” Cash
said. “You are the most decisive
element a kid can have.”
Cash said a teacher will often
hear a particular question from his
or her students: “What are we
going to do today?”
She stressed each student
arrives at school with certain
expectations from his or her
teacher. It is important to meet
those expectations. She added it is
important for students to know
teachers also expect great things
from them.
Having served as a school principal over some of the years that
preceded her becoming the county
schools director, she shared the
story of a boy she called “Sam.”
This 5-year-old kindergarten
student “cussed like a sailor,”
refused to listen to his teacher and
kicked and bit when he did not get
his way.
Cash said she ended up working
with him a lot, as he ended up
spending much of his time in the
principal’s office.
She discovered while trying to
get him to do his work, he was a
“smart kid” capable of doing firstgrade and even second-grade
work. He was bored, and he was
not getting the structure he needed
at home or at school.
Cash said that boy needed
someone who would push him to
improve, who would not let him
cuss and call himself dumb.
With a little help, he began to
complete his work. She said she
also got him to start using the
phrase “French fry” instead of the
expletive starting with the same
letter he so often favored.
Cash stressed teachers need to
focus on the big picture, on what
students can be in the future.
“You have to believe that every
single child that steps into your
room is going to make it,” Cash
said.
She asked the teachers to close
their eyes and think of “that” student, the student who gives them
the most trouble. She then told
them to picture him or her graduating from high school and later
going to college and launching a
successful career.
The challenges a student faces
now don’t have to dictate his or her
future, she explained. Teachers
can help students find their potential.
“Do you believe that? I do,” Cash
said.
She added a teacher cannot fully
know where a student will end up.
“What we do know is that we
make a difference,” Cash said.
The director then asked the
teachers to ponder whether or not
they believe in themselves as
teachers.
She noted a student will often be
able to sense whether or not a
teacher is confident in his or her
abilities, and many students desperately need confident teachers.
She said that is because students need someone who can show
confidence in them, and even the
toughest-looking students “are soft
inside,” young and wanting to
know someone cares about them.
Cash also stressed “there’s nothing easy about teaching.” However,
she said it is one of the most
important jobs that exists.
“In our classrooms day after
day, the future sits there,” Cash
said. “They need teachers to
believe in them, themselves and
their colleagues.”
Cash said she only ended up
where she is today because she
had someone who believed in her.
She described herself as “a child of
poverty” who later learned education was the key to bettering her
life.
She said all who support students by doing things like driving
buses and providing nutritious
meals are vital to making sure students are able to learn.
However, she also stressed
teachers are “the most decisive element” to making sure students
learn.
Before Cash spoke, Bradley
County Schools testing coordinator gave the educators a brief
overview of recent test scores.
While the school system had
seen improvements in areas like
math, Gill noted there is still some
work to do in other areas.
Later Monday afternoon, the
Tennessee
Department
of
Education announced Michigan
Avenue Elementary School was
named a Reward School, meaning
it is among the top 10 percent of
schools in the state.
Taylor Elementary was named a
Focus School because of its gaps in
achievement between students
who are “economically disadvantaged” and those who are not.
While the county has one Focus
School, Park View Elementary was
named to the state’s Focus Exit
list, meaning it made good enough
progress to be removed from the
Focus list.
Debbie Melton of Don Ledford
Automotive brought an extra dose
of excitement to the room when
she helped a teacher win the
chance to drive a new car throughout the new school year.
The winner was chosen from
among the school system’s most
recent building-level teachers of
the year, and the winner was
Emma Barnes, a teacher at Walker
Valley High School. She will be able
to drive a 2016 Chevrolet Cruze
that will be leased at no cost to her.

TENNESSEE BRIEFS
Ex-con accused of killing
police officer turns self in
MEMPHIS (AP) — An ex-con
accused of fatally shooting a
police officer who interrupted a
drug deal turned himself in
Monday, ending an intensive
two-day manhunt, authorities
said.
Tremaine Wilbourn, 29, is
accused of killing officer Sean
Bolton on Saturday night, after
the officer approached a car
along a street that had been
known for years as a quiet oasis
amid a troubled neighborhood.
Wilbourn was with his family
and an attorney when he turned
himself in.
“I think he felt the walls closing in and thought it would be in
his best interest to turn himself
in,” Memphis Police Director
Toney Armstrong said Monday.
Armstrong spoke briefly to
Wilbourn and the suspect told
him: “I want you to know that
one, I’m not a cold-blooded killer
and two, I am not a coward.”
Armstrong had used that word
to describe Wilbourn during the
manhunt.
Attorney: Titans wide receiver
didn’t sucker punch anybody
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — The
attorney for Tennessee Titans
wide receiver Justin Hunter said
Monday that his client didn’t
sucker punch anybody outside a
Virginia Beach bar following a
massive brawl inside of it over
the July Fourth weekend.
Hunter has been charged with
malicious wounding in his
hometown for punching someone multiple times, although
he’s been released on bond.
Prosecutors contend Hunter
interrupted a conversation a
man was having with someone
else at the Sandbar Raw Bar in
the oceanfront resort area of the
city.
After
words
were
exchanged, Hunter punched the
man in the face twice, according
to prosecutors. After a melee
ensued and the bar was cleared,
prosecutors contend the man
who Hunter originally punched
was bent over and spitting out
blood on the sidewalk, and
Hunter “sucker punched” him
again, before hopping into a
waiting vehicle. Prosecutors said
the man’s jaw was broken and
he had to be treated at a hospital.
On Monday, Hunter attorney
Toby Vick said the sucker punch
never happened.
“He didn’t sucker punch any-
body. We’re confident we’ll be
able to establish that,” Vick said
in a telephone interview from his
Richmond office.
Vick also said Hunter and his
friends were not the aggressors
in the bar fight.

Tennessee schools recognized
for achievement, growth
MT. JULIET (AP) — Tennessee
schools across the state are
being recognized for their
achievement and growth.
The Reward Schools span 59
districts and include 93 schools
that serve mostly economically
disadvantaged populations.
This year’s list recognized 76
schools for overall academic
achievement and 85 schools for
annual value-added growth.
The list names nine schools
that earned both designations,
rising to the top 5 percent for
annual value-added growth while
also ranking in the state’s top 5
percent for overall achievement.
W.A. Wright Elementary
School in Wilson County was one
of the nine schools, and students
were treated with visits from
Gov. Bill Haslam and Education
Commissioner Candice McQueen
on Monday.

U.S. Treasury estimates
$552B in borrowing this year
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Treasury
Department
on
Monday estimated that it will
end up borrowing $552 billion
for the current budget year, the
lowest total in eight years.
The Treasury’s borrowing
estimate covers the budget year
that began last October and will
end on Sept. 31. The figure
would be a drop of 17.6 percent
from last year’s $670 billion
and represent the smallest
annual amount since the government borrowed $150 billion
in 2007.

LANCASTER, N.H. (AP) —
Safety
officials
in
New
Hampshire are investigating the
collapse of a circus tent during a
severe storm that killed a father
and daughter and injured about
22 others.
“We all this morning have
heavy hearts,” Gov. Maggie
Hassan told WMUR-TV early
Tuesday. “We lost two lives — a
father and a daughter — at an
event that was supposed to be
fun.”
Authorities were looking at
how the tent was put up at the
Lancaster Fairgrounds, about
90 miles north of the capital of
Concord. They also were talking
to survivors and witnesses.

wind gusts and hail, blew
through around 5:30 p.m.
Monday, just as the first of two
scheduled shows was beginning.
Degnan said about 100 people were inside the tent at the
time, and a man and a girl died.
Their names were not released.
The injured were taken to four
regional hospitals. Their conditions were not immediately
known.
The
circus
operator,
Sarasota, Florida-based Walker
International Events, did not
return a call seeking comment
late Monday. The circus was
scheduled to head to Bradford,

the circus with her 3-year-old
son, said it suddenly went dark
and she heard someone screaming, “Get out, get out.”
“I see these very large metal
poles that are in the ground and
go through the top of the tent, I
see them starting to come out of
the ground and fly up, into the
air toward us,” she told WMURTV. She said 10 to 30 seconds
later, the pole slammed onto the
bleacher where she and her son
had been sitting.
Fire Marshal William Degnan
said it was the first time his
agency had investigated a tent
collapse. He asked that anyone
with images or video of the
event to contact his office.

“If this is allowed to stand,
some of these major festivals
may decide to end or move out of
public parks,” Harris said.
“Given the economic impact of
these festivals, we have to do
something so that people can feel
safe at major festivals and concerts. We need legislation that
makes clear that organizers can
ban guns at these events when
they believe there is a security
risk.”
Beth Joslin Roth, policy director for the Safe Tennessee Project,
said there have been at least 20
accidental shootings in Tennessee
so far this year and that there’s a
greater “possibility of these kinds
of accidental shootings happening
in extremely crowded situations
such as an outdoor concert venue
or festival.”
The Tennessee Firearms
Association said it has analyzed
the opinion and generally agrees
with its conclusions, but
“believes that the opinion, read
in isolation, creates potential
and unnecessary confusion
regarding the current status of
Tennessee law on this subject.”

“When I wrote both speakers
the letter when I signed the bill, I
said because this is changing
things it merits some close
observation to see are there
some situations that we should
go back in and address,” Haslam
said. “I would urge the
Legislature to go back and say
are there specific situations, now
that you have the attorney general’s opinion, that you want to
provide clarity to.”
Under the new law, Slatery
said in the opinion, local governments can’t prohibit permit
holders from taking handguns to
parks and therefore can’t delegate the authority to anyone
else.
Organizers of events at
Nashville’s
new
Ascend
Amphitheater and next year’s
Memphis in May celebration
have said they planned to ban
guns. Under Slatery’s opinion,
they couldn’t do that.
Senate Democratic Leader Lee
Harris of Memphis, who opposed
the new law and requested the
opinion, believes it could have
“negative implications across the
state.” He plans to host a roundtable later this month in
JOHNSON CITY (AP) — A sexual assault task force has
formed in Johnson City in an
effort to improve services for victims.
The idea for the panel came
from a conversation between
police Chief Mark Sirois and resident Ruth Read, who created
Women
Matter
Northeast
Tennessee last year in an unsuccessful effort to fight an abortion
amendment. Read and members
of Women Matter were looking
for another issue to focus on,
which led to discussions with
Sirois about untested rape kits
that the department has stored.
After three meetings, “we
decided there were a lot of questions unanswered, a lot of policies that could be drafted and a
lot of resources that could be
connected in this community
that so far had not been connected,” she said.
Read and Sirois agreed to create the 11-member panel in an
effort to improve victim services.
The panel is also working on prevention measures and improving
communication among various
agencies.
Read told The Johnson City
Press that the task force has
already identified resources to
help victims and is working on
others.
“What we’re trying to do here
is raise awareness in the community that there needs to be
more priority put on victims,
both by those in city administrations and even private citizens
need to be educated,” Read said.
Sirois said the police department is invested in the issue but
must follow guidelines when it
comes to rape kits.
“The police department thoroughly investigates reports of

MT. JULIET (AP) — Tennessee
lawmakers should consider
reviewing a new law that allows
handgun carry permit holders to
bring firearms to parks, playgrounds and sports fields following a key opinion from the state’s
attorney general, Gov. Bill
Haslam said Monday,
Attorney General Herbert
Slatery issued an opinion last
week saying private organizations that use the parks for
events cannot prevent licensed
permit holders from taking
weapons into the events. His
opinion has sparked concern
among organizers of events like
the Memphis in May festival that
draws thousands each year.
Although he signed the bill
earlier this year, Haslam said at
the time in a letter to the speakers of the House and Senate that
he remained concerned about
potential unintended consequences for local leaders.
The governor acknowledged to
reporters following a Mt. Juliet
event on Monday that Slatery’s
opinion has raised questions
that may justify lawmakers
reviewing the guns-in-parks
measure for possible clarity.

their help,” Collins wrote. “We
will now need paid positions to
cover these duties, since we
are no longer being allowed
inmates.”
Included on the list were
such tasks as sweep and mop
garage and shop, flag for crews,
patch potholes, clean gutters,
replace tin roofs, wash and
clean road department vehicles
and small carpenter jobs for
maintenance on buildings.
Collins also said her department has had several calls
about dead animals.
“We usually use inmates to do
that. We have no one who does
that,” she said. “If they’re in the
road, we pick them up; but if
they’re on the side of the road,
they’re there.”
One of Watson’s arguments
against providing the inmates
was the drugs tests that were
performed on inmates working
with the road department which
came back positive for marijuana, methamphetamines and
some prescription pills.
Collins told the committee the
Drug Task Force has been to the
department’s yard. “there’s nothing on our yard as far as drugs.”
The Cleveland Daily Banner
confirmed the DTF performed a
search of the grounds Monday
morning and found nothing.
Collins said she had requested
the search as being “proactive.”
She also referred to the communication from Watson that
was requested.
The sheriff’s letter mentions
two occasions — Feb. 24 and
March 13 — when he said
inmates tested positive for
drugs.
“Some of the dates he stipulates some of the inmates came
back and tested positive for
drugs, we didn’t even have
inmates those days,” Collins
said.
While Collins is correct
inmates did not work on the
dates Watson specified, documents from the BCSO show
those are the dates the inmates
were tested — not necessarily
the days they worked.
The testing on Feb. 24 was
done on a Tuesday prior to the
inmates leaving for their duties.
The positive test stopped that
day of work.
The testing on March 13 was
on a Friday which was both a
“There is a difference here. Nobody wants to be in the
middle between these two, but it’s not the taxpayers’
fault. Something needs to be worked out.”
— Mayor D. Gary Davis
day inmates did not work and
were tested.
Collins told the committee
when it comes to her request for
additional funding, “We simply
need an answer.”
Commissioner
Robert
Rominger suggested the funds
come from the road department’s fund balance and be
budgeted during the next fiscal
year.
“That’s going to cut a lot of
services this year,” Collins said.
Commissioner Charlotte Peak
said she could not see how the
Commission could replace the
$55,000 from the litter grant.
“That’s actually a reimbursable grant, so I wouldn’t
even consider that one,” Peak
said.
When it comes to new
employees, Collins returned to
the department’s use of
inmates.
“We were used to having five
or six inmates a day that we
were using to put down raised
pavement markers, pick up
dead animals, pick up trash
and flag [traffic],” she said.
“Now we don’t get those people
any more so we’re going to have
to pull people in that we actually pay to be there.”
When Commissioner Dan
Rawls asked Collins if the drug
issue was the main reason the
inmates were not being made
available, she responded, “That
was the accusation.”
Rawls said Collins and
Watson need to have a meeting
to discuss the situation.
“This going back and forth is
not resolving anything. I’m
with [Commissioner Peak] concerning the litter grant,” Rawls
said. “If there’s a way to make
this work out without this
becoming a situation on both
sides — whether it’s ego
involved and a ‘he said, she
said’ — I don’t like all of that.
Let’s sit down and see if we can
work this out.”
He said having the two
departments come together on
some agreement is “better than
billing the taxpayers more
because two departments are
having a problem.”
Rawls said he would be willing to sit with both department
heads if they could set a meeting date.
County Mayor D. Gary Davis
appointed Rawls, Watson and
Collins to meet on the matter.
“There is a difference here,”
Davis said. “Nobody wants to be
in the middle between these
two, but it’s not the taxpayers’
fault. Something needs to be
worked out.”
Gloria Hayes, administrative
assistant with the road department, said inmates had been
working with the department
for more than two decades.
“This is the first time we’ve
ever had a problem,” she said.
“Let’s figure out how to do
this. We’re adults,” Rawls said.
Because it has been done this
way for decades is not an argument Watson is buying.
“That doesn’t make it right,”
he told the Banner.
The sheriff maintains the liability risk is far too high for him
to take the chances with the
inmates.
When asked if there was any
way he could see allowing the
inmates to go back to the road
department duties, Watson said
the department “had two
chances already,” referring to
the drug testing.
What further concerned both
Watson and BCSO Captain of
Corrections Gabe Thomas were
the list of jobs inmates were
being used for that were outside
the scope of the litter grant.
“We’ve never seen that,”
Watson said. “We had no clue
they were doing this stuff. We
have never been notified they
were sweeping and mopping the
bathrooms, patching potholes,
putting hot mix on driveways.
We have never been told they
had been actually working on
Logan
County

Logan said he believes the latter of those two factors is the one
relevant to this case.
“We had presented in our
motion for summary judgment a
case which says, ‘We do not
believe there is any ambiguity in
the statute and no vagueness in
the statute. It needs no interpretive effort other than the application.’ That was not addressed,”
he said.
He said the attorney general’s
opinion has “no supporting
authority for it from an interpretive perspective.”
Logan said there are “two very,
very significant additional matters.”
“The first is, and the most
prominent, is she agreed with
our authorities that subsequent
legislation is generally considered an indication as to the original intent of the Legislature
when they passed the statute,”
he said.
Logan said the county provided a copy of the 2014 amendment which until a difference
between what they owed and
what they had paid had been settled allowed municipalities to
keep the money for the fiscal
year 2014-15.
“That was extended in 2015 to
2016 because all those cases
have not been resolved,” he said.
Logan said the chancellor’s
opinion was that statute said the
county got to participate from
2014 to 2015 and then reverted
to the previous language.
“That’s just not what it says,”
he told the Commission. “It says
the cities can keep the money
from 2014 to 2015, and then it
reverts back to the previous language which says those funds
will be distributed based upon
the county property tax for education.”
Logan said the other position
they are taking concerns the
opinion the cities can keep all of
the money they had “though the
referendum section she is relying
on was only passed in the city in
2002.”
“Our calculation is the city
owes us $150,000-plus before the
referendum was passed, when
there was only one distribution;
the road. We had no clue. We’ve
always been told those inmates
were used for nothing other
than the litter grant.”
“It was just litter pickup,”
Thomas said. “That’s all we
knew.”
Thomas, who is in charge of
the inmate program, said every
time an inmate takes a drug
test is documented to the
fullest.
“After we do that, we have an
in-house hearing in order to follow due process,” he explained.
“If they are found guilty, they
lose their privileges, including
inmate work.”
Thomas also noted the item of
replacing tin on roofs.
“We wouldn’t even help
Habitat for Humanity because
of the liability of that,” he said.
“If one of them falls off a roof,
it’s back on us and there’s a
lawsuit that will cost the taxpayers.”
“If an inmate falls off a tin
roof he’s putting up for the road
department, guess who has the
liability for that? It’s not just
the sheriff’s department. It’s the
taxpayers of Bradley County,”
Thomas said. “If he breaks his
back and he’s on disability for
the rest of his life, it’s on the
taxpayers of Bradley County.
You have to be real careful with
what you allow them to do.”
Concerning the pickup of
dead animals, Watson said the
BCSO does not have the
resources to do that task.
“That is not part of the litter
grant,” he said. “The road
department has a responsibility
to keep the roads clean. The litter grant is just something
given by the state for extra litter
pickup.”
He said the inmates are
accompanied by full-time
deputy sheriffs, adding the road
department workers who took
Tennessee Corrections Institute
training “did not complete their
certification process.”
The sheriff said it is all about
the liability.
“We cannot have inmates to
continue drug use while in the
care and custody of this office,”
Watson said. “And the idea of
them being around heavy
machinery and construction
materials simply makes the liability far too unacceptable and
a risk I am unwilling to take.”

hours of service when the crash
occurred.
The NTSB preliminary report
found that Brewer, while driving
a 2007 Peterbilt tractor and
hauling a refrigerated trailer, was
traveling northbound into a construction zone.
The report said, “The weather
was clear, and the roadway was
dry. Various warning signs were
placed in advance of the work
zone to alert motorists of the
ongoing construction, and the
posted speed limit within the
work zone was 60 mph.”
According to accident reports,
Brewer entered the construction
zone, where traffic had come to a
halt due to two of the lanes being
shut down, and plowed through
seven vehicles. His rig reportedly
traveled a distance of 453 feet
from the point of initial impact to
its final resting place.
The report states the second
vehicle he hit burst into flames,
while the third vehicle “...
became lodged on the front of the
combination vehicle and was
involved in subsequent impacts.”
The report states six people
died and four were injured as a
result of the accident, while eight
other passengers managed to
walk away uninjured.
The NTSB report also shows
that Brewer’s vehicle had issues
with the braking system in the
days leading up to the fatal
crash. The report states Brewer
began traveling on Monday, leaving from Kentucky to transport a
load to Florida.
“During this time, the driver
experienced two mechanical
breakdowns and was involved in
a crash with another commercial
vehicle,” the NTSB report states.
“The initial mechanical issue
occurred when he picked up the
load in Kentucky and found that
his vehicle’s air compressor was
unable to generate sufficient air
supply to properly operate the
brake system.”
According to the NTSB report,
this problem was reportedly
taken care of and Brewer continued onto Florida, where after
being on duty for 45 hours his
truck sideswiped another commercial vehicle and was cited for
causing the crash.
The report states Brewer went
on to his final destination in
Florida on June 24, “after being
on duty for about 50 consecutive
hours.”
This was the day before the
deadly crash occurred near
Ooltewah. The NTSB investigation is ongoing.
Amid this report and indictment, Brewer has also been
named in a $10 million lawsuit,
along with his employer, Cool
Runnings Express Inc.
The suit, filed by Ryan
Humphries of Cleveland, seeks
$5 million in actual damages and
$5
million
in
punitive.
Humphries sustained severe
injuries as a result of the June
25 crash, including broken
bones and third-degree burns.
The owners of the Cool
Runnings Express Inc., Billy and
Cretty Sizemore, recently asked
that the suit, which was filed in
the Hamilton County Circuit
Court, be moved to federal court.
The federal court petition reportedly cites the fact that at least 18
people from four different states
were involved in the accident.
It is anticipated more lawsuits
will be filed, according to the federal court petition.

under pressure.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your

way.

competitive and smart. You are adventurous and bold.

Frontline
Perpetually a subject of controversy, the
National Rifle Association is in the spotlight
in “Gunned Down,” which examines the
influence it has over gun regulation in the
United States. Tragedies such as those at
schools in Newtown, Conn., and Columbine, Colo. — plus the wounding of former
Arizona congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords
— are re-examined as the program questions why new legislation hasn’t resulted
from those situations.

GOP hopefuls take on illegal immigration in debate preview
MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) —
The Republican Party’s presidential class called for aggressive
steps to curb illegal immigration,
seizing on a delicate political issue
as more than a dozen White
House hopefuls faced off in New
Hampshire on Monday night for a
pointed preview of the first fullfledged debate of the 2016 primary season.
All but three of the 17 major
Republican candidates for president participated in what was
essentially a debate lite, which —
unlike Thursday’s nationally televised debate in Cleveland — didn’t
have a cut-off for participation.
The candidates focused their
criticism at Democrats instead of
each other, yet Monday’s meeting
offered a prime-time practice
round for the GOP’s most ambitious, who appeared on stage one
at a time. They addressed several
contentious issues, immigration
topping a list that included abortion, climate change and foreign
policy.
Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry,
who may not qualify for the
upcoming formal debate, called
the flow of immigrants crossing
the border illegally “a serious
wound.”
“You want to stanch the flow,”
he said as his Republican rivals
watched from the front row of the
crowded St. Anselm College auditorium. On those immigrants who
have overstayed visas, Perry
charged, “You go find ‘em, you
pick ‘em up and you send ‘em
back where they’re from.”
Former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick
Santorum went further, calling for
a 25 percent reduction of lowskilled immigrants coming into
the country legally.
“Everyone else is dancing
around it. I’m going to stand for
the American worker,” Santorum
declared.
Monday’s participants included
seven current or former governors, four senators, a businesswoman, a retired neurosurgeon
and one former senator.
Billionaire businessman Donald
Trump, who has dominated the
GOP primary in recent weeks, is
among the three major candidates
who decided not to join.
Trump, who launched his presidential bid by calling Mexican
immigrants rapists and criminals,
declined to attend the New
Hampshire event. He cited criticism from the local newspaper
host, yet he is expected to play a
prominent role in Thursday’s formal debate, where only the GOP’s
top 10 candidates — as determined by national polls — will be
allowed on stage.
Monday’s event was broadcast
live on C-SPAN and local television stations in Iowa and South
Carolina — states that, along with
New Hampshire, will host the first
contests in the presidential primary calendar next February.
The New Hampshire meeting
came amid new developments on
politically charged issues.
Just an hour before the 7 p.m.
forum was to begin, the Senate
blocked a GOP-backed bill to strip
funding
from
Planned
Parenthood, reviving a debate on
social
issues
that
some

Three of the four senators participating in Monday’s event —
Marco Rubio of Florida, Ted Cruz

NATIONAL BRIEFS
Kidnapped toddler found safe
after landlord sees CNN report
PALATKA, Fla. (AP) —
Authorities say a 3-year-old girl
reported kidnapped more than a
year ago in South Florida has
been found with her mother
about 280 miles away.
Multiple news outlets report
that 23-year-old Megan E.
Everett was arrested by the
Putnam County Sheriff’s Office
on Monday when a tip came in
because her story was featured
on the CNN program “The Hunt
with John Walsh,” on Sunday.
Sunrise police say the child
has been placed into protective
custody.
The girl’s father, 27-year-old
Robert Baumann of Davie, says
investigators told him the tip
came from a landlord who was
renting out a property to Everett
in Palatka.
According to the FBI, the child
was reported missing May 2014,
when Everett failed to return her
daughter to Baumann as directed
in their custody agreement.
Gay Catholic school teacher shut
out at archdiocese offices
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The
suburban Philadelphia Catholic
school teacher fired over her
same-sex marriage was shut out
after attempting to bring a box of
petitions asking for her reinstatement to the Archdiocese of
Philadelphia.
The Philadelphia Inquirer
reports Margie Winters, former
director of religious education at
Waldron Mercy Academy in
Merion, was told by security that
the Archdiocese’s Center City
Philadelphia offices were on lockdown Monday afternoon.
Winters joked it was “because
I’m so threatening” after handing
the box of petitions to the guard
and asking him to deliver it to
Archbishop Charles Chaput.
The petition, signed by 23,000
people, was organized by social
justice group Faithful America.
Winters was fired in June for
being in a same-sex marriage,
something she disclosed to the
school upon her hiring eight
years ago.
Coast Guard: Tequesta teens’ boat
now also missing
TEQUESTA, Fla. (AP) — The
boat two teens were on when they
went missing off Florida’s Atlantic
coast is no longer where the
Coast Guard found it.
Multiple media outlets report
that a marine salvage company
hired by the Coast Guard to bring
the boat back to shore couldn’t
find the vessel, which was discovered capsized on July 26.
Coast Guard spokesman
Anthony Soto said Monday the
boat had been left unsecured and
the agency has no plans to look
for it.
Soto says the boat wasn’t
brought to shore earlier because
officials were focused on search
efforts instead.
The Coast Guard called off its
search for the 14-year-old boys,
Perry Cohen and Austin
Stephanos, on Friday, one week
after they went missing. Since
then, volunteers have continued
looking for the teenagers.
Town’s leaders defend firing
of first black police chief
POCOMOKE CITY, Md. (AP) —
Leaders of a small, predominantly black town on Maryland’s
Eastern Shore are defending their
decision to fire the town’s first
black police chief and call for
healing racial tensions that have
divided the community.
Pocomoke City Mayor Bruce
Morrison told members of a citizens group Monday night that
he’s willing to work with them,
but former police Chief Kelvin
Sewell won’t likely be reinstated.
Sewell says he was dismissed
for refusing city officials’
demands that he fire two fellow
black officers who filed complaints saying they had been
treated unfairly.
City officials deny Sewell’s
claim but say their ability to
address the issue publicly is limited because of pending litigation
and personnel rules.
Hearing set in courthouse
shooting as revenge motive eyed
CANTON, Miss. (AP) — A
Mississippi man arrested for
fatally shooting another man at a
courthouse in a possible case of
revenge was scheduled for a bail
hearing Tuesday.
William A. Wells, 24, was a former firefighter who had never
been in any more serious legal
trouble than some traffic tickets
— until his mother was shot.
Kendrick Armond Brown was
facing up to life in prison for
felony drug charges under
Mississippi’s habitual offender
law.
Madison County Sheriff Randy
Tucker said Wells drove to the
Madison County Courthouse
Monday around 9 a.m., got out of
his maroon Toyota Tundra pickup truck, walked up to the 37year-old Brown, and shot him
once in the chest with a semiautomatic handgun.
Brown, who was supposed to
appear in court Monday, died
there in a courtyard where crepe
myrtles provided only a little
shade against the merciless sun.
Sheriff’s deputies witnessed the
whole thing from a security
checkpoint inside the glasswalled, courthouse lobby, and
Wells laid down his gun and surrendered as soon as they came
out, Tucker said.
Why did Wells shoot Brown?
Madison County District Attorney
Michael Guest said Monday that
authorities are investigating
whether Wells was seeking
revenge for the Saturday night
shooting of his mother, Sherry
Wells.
Canton Police Chief Otha
Brown said Sherry Wells was shot
while driving to work Saturday
night. She drove to the Canton
Police station, about 200 yards
across a parking lot from where
Monday’s shooting took place,
reported the crime, and then was
taken to a hospital with a knee
injury. Brown said early Monday
that Canton police had no suspects. Sherry Wells was later
released from the hospital.
Mormon church to release more
documents from founder
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The
Mormon church is taking another
step in its push to be more transparent, and is releasing more historical documents that shed light
on how Joseph Smith formed the
religion.
The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints says the volume being released at a news
conference Tuesday in Salt Lake
City is a printer’s manuscript of
the Book of Mormon.
Mormons believe that 185
years ago, God helped Smith
translate a story that was written
in ancient Egyptian and engraved
on gold plates. It became known
as the Book of Mormon.
The religion counts 15 million
followers worldwide after experiencing a tripling of membership
in the past three decades. Some
outsiders have criticized it as
being secretive about its practices
and beliefs.
This is the church’s latest step
toward making available documents or clarifying some of the
more sensitive parts of its doctrine or history.
Rugged California area searched
in manhunt for gunman
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A manhunt linked to a killing, kidnapping and the wounding of two
deputies is focused in a rugged,
five-square-mile California area.
Investigators haven’t confirmed
the crimes were committed by the
same man, said Kern County
sheriff’s spokesman Ray Pruitt.
Dozens of deputies and helicopters combed the high desert
area 30 miles from Bakersfield in
100-degree heat on Monday.
The area is challenging for
searchers because it’s sparsely
populated with mobile homes,
trailers, unoccupied homes, cabins, ranches and outbuildings.
“We’re having to move very
slowly and meticulously,” Pruitt
said. “This is a suspect we consider to be armed and very dangerous. He has shown he is not
hesitant to engage law enforcement officers in a shootout.”
Authorities believe the man is
on foot in the area where two elementary schools and a middle
school have been closed indefinitely, Pruitt said. Residents were
advised to stay inside and lock
their doors and windows.
The manhunt began Tuesday
after a squatter in a remote cabin
was approached by three young
men — two 20-year-olds and a
19-year-old from Bakersfield.
They were greeted by a man who
asked why they were on his property.
When one of the men said it
was his cabin, the squatter pulled
a shotgun and ordered them into
the cabin where he held them for
more than an hour and threatened to kill them.
The three men escaped and
hiked several miles to a road.
Meanwhile, the suspect left in
their car, which was found abandoned on Wednesday two miles
away. Several firearms stolen
from the men and the cabin also
were found but not the shotgun.
Worker dies after bee attack at
California construction site
RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) — A
worker died Monday after being
stung by bees that swarmed a
Southern California construction
site after a contractor grading a
parking lot struck an underground hive, a fire chief said.
Chaos broke out as the bees
swarmed, workers said. Some
workers panicked and bolted,
while at least two men rolled on
the ground covering their faces
with their hands. A third man
swatted at the bees with a vest.
“There were bees all over them.
Hundreds of them,” Tomace
Marquez told the PressEnterprise.
Three men were stung and one
died after an allergic reaction,
Riverside Battalion Chief Tony
Perna said.
“It was insane,” worker David
Wolf told CBSLA.com . “It all happened pretty quick, really. They
just kept splitting up and chasing
all the other workers.”

MTSU’s Stockstill wanting more fan support for Blue Raiders
MURFREESBORO (AP) — Rick
Stockstill once again is urging Middle
Tennessee students and Murfreesboro
residents to turn out and support his
Blue Raiders.
Having already put his money where
his mouth is by delaying his annual raise
gives his words a bit more heft.
The coach went to athletic director
Chris Massaro about restructuring his
deal and signed a revised contract in late
May that pushed back a $100,000 raise
due this season to January 2019.
Stockstill wanted to help Middle
Tennessee more easily handle the new
cost of attendance being paid to athletes
this season.
The Blue Raiders report Wednesday for
their first practice Thursday. When the
season starts next month, Stockstill
hopes to see more fans in the stands.
“If you don’t support the school you
went to, this is your home team,”
Stockstill said Monday. “This is your
home team, your hometown should be
here watching it and support us. Our students should do the same. This is their
school, they should be here ... I say this
every year, and I’ll say it next year, too, so
my message hasn’t changed.”
Stockstill’s only promise is that people
turning out will see a competitive team
that plays with passion.
Middle Tennessee has had difficulty
filling 30,788-seat Johnny “Red” Floyd
Stadium even though the Blue Raiders
won eight games in 2012 and 2013. A 5047 win over rival Western Kentucky drew
a season-high 24,911 last season, but
Middle Tennessee didn’t top 18,952 for
any other game despite finishing 6-6 after
losing two of the final three games.
Middle Tennessee opens Sept. 5 at
home against Jackson State, but the Blue
Raiders’ best chance for a sellout comes
Oct. 3 when they host Vanderbilt after
trips to Alabama and Illinois.
“Looking at this schedule is very exciting,” safety Kevin Byard said. “It’s definitely an opportunity for Middle
Tennessee to get some national attention.”
The Blue Raiders certainly noticed
their coach giving up a chunk of his pay
to help them, making them appreciate
Stockstill even more.
“I feel like we have one of the best
coaches in America,” senior linebacker
T.T. Barber said. “I mean, there’s a lot of
coaches that tell you what you want to
hear to get you to come to a school. He’s
not a coach that tells you what you want
to hear. He gets you to come to school and
backs up his word. He tells us he’ll take
care of us, even after college. If you call
him, he’ll help you out and it shows right
there.”
Byard called Stockstill’s request to
delay his raise an example of great leadership.

though he remains on defense
for now.
Tennessee returns the nucleus of a team that went 7-6 last
year. The Vols ended a string of
four straight losing seasons
while playing 23 true freshmen,
the most of any Football Bowl
Subdivision program.
Jones still sees plenty of
room for improvement and
cited red-zone efficiency on
both sides of the ball as an
example.
Tennessee opponents scored
on 32 of their 34
trips inside the Vols’
20-yard line last season. Indiana was the
only FBS team that allowed
opponents to score on a higher percentage of their redzone possessions.
“That is going to be a
point of contention,” Jones
said. “We have always invested
in it, but we will continue to
invest in it even more.”
Tennessee has plenty of
other tasks heading into the
Sept. 5 opener with Bowling
Green at Nashville’s Nissan
Stadium. Both starting offensive tackle spots remain open.
The Vols also must decide on
their main middle linebacker
and punter and need to find a
top backup to quarterback
Joshua Dobbs.
“We can’t just be a year
older,” Jones said. “We have to
be a year better. We have to
learn from past experiences. We
have to be a year wiser.”
Orange Peels: Reserve defensive end LaTroy Lewis will miss
the start of camp after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery.
Jones said Lewis should be
ready for the season opener.
Jones also said defensive lineman Trevarris Saulsberry
remains “touch and
go” after injuries limited him to a total of
nine games over the
last two seasons. Other
injured players include
reserve defensive back
Max Arnold and freshman defensive lineman
Andrew Butcher, with no
timetable set for their returns.
... Jones praised Kansas City
Chiefs cornerback and former
Vols star Eric Berry for his
quick recovery from lymphoma.
“We are very excited about
him,” Jones said. “He is a
tremendous story about how
you meet adversity head on.
Everything is about your temperament and disposition. He is
a great illustration for all of us
for when we suffer adversity.”
Tennessee center Mercedes
Russell finally gets to play with
her Lady Vols teammates again
this week as she continues her
comeback from foot surgeries.
But the Lady Vols must wait to
play in a game situation alongside
North Carolina transfer Diamond
DeShields.
Tennessee leaves Wednesday
for a three-game exhibition tour of
Italy in which DeShields and senior forward Bashaara Graves
aren’t expected to play, but both
will make the trip.
Lady Vols coach Holly Warlick
said she’s resting both players for
precautionary reasons as Graves
recovers from “tweaks in her
shoulder” and DeShields deals
with shin splints.
DeShields’ health issues also
caused the former Atlantic Coast
Conference rookie of the year to
play only one game for the U.S.
team in last month’s World
University Games at Gwangju,
South Korea.
“We could play both of them,
but I just don’t want to push the
issue,” said Warlick, who expects
both to be ready for the start of the
season.
The tour represents one more
step in Russell’s comeback after
the 6-foot-6 center missed the
entire 2014-15 season. Russell
said she feels healthy and believes
she took a major step forward at
the World University Games,
where she averaged 13 points and
a team-high 9.2 rebounds to help
the United States win a gold
medal. Warlick was an assistant
coach on the U.S. team.
“At first, I was a little, I would
say, shaky and kind of nervous
since I hadn’t played in a while,”
Russell said. “Once I got used to it
and I got my feet wet again, I really
enjoyed it. It was fun being back
on the court.”
Russell was rated as the
nation’s top overall prospect in her
class by multiple services when
she signed with Tennessee in
November 2012, but she hasn’t
been healthy throughout her college career. Russell said her feet
actually started bothering her in
high school.
She averaged 6.3 points and 5
rebounds per game in 2013-14
while dealing with foot injuries.
Russell underwent surgeries on
both her feet after the season and
redshirted in 2014-15 to recover.
“It was very frustrating (as a
freshman) to know I could give
some effort, but it wasn’t my best,”
Russell said. “At times, that kind
of just got to my head, and I was
(thinking), ‘You know, I can probably do better, but my feet are
holding me back.’ “
Russell said she’s now 100 percent. She acknowledged playing at
closer to 50-60 percent her freshman season.
“She’s getting up and down the
floor a lot quicker,” Warlick said.
“She’s not laboring getting down
the floor. She’s a little bit more

It was the inaugural Bradley Central Invitational,
but Cleveland High and Walker Valley came away
with the top trophies.
The Blue Raiders claimed a seven-stroke victory,
posting a 315 team total, while the Lady Mustangs
shot a 157 for a five shot win on the Cleveland
Country Club course.
“I told them before we started it was going to take
four scores in the 70s to win. That’s what we got,”
proclaimed Cleveland head coach Nick Cantrell.
“This is a good sign and a great way to start off the

TENNESSEE TITANS TACKLE Taylor Lewan, right, blocks defensive end Jurrell Casey during
training camp Friday, in Nashville.
Titans’ offensive line
ready to push back
after rough season
NASHVILLE (AP) — The
Tennessee Titans’ offensive linemen are tired of being pushed
around.
Even left tackle Taylor Lewan
says they were soft last season in
a brutally honest assessment,
and he’s making it clear they
intend to be this team’s gritty
foundation.
The Titans need them to be
with a rookie at quarterback.
“As an offensive line, it starts
with us,” Lewan said. “We have to
be the foundation of the offense,
the foundation of the team. If we
work together, play a little dirty,
play a little over the line, play a
little bit crazy and work together,
I think we’ll be really successful.”
Strong words coming from
someone with a mere six starts
and 11 games played to his credit. Then again, the Titans drafted
Lewan at No. 11 overall a year
ago as just the latest piece in a
hefty investment in the offensive
line. They need to see some payoff this season with the linemen
protecting an even bigger stake
in Heisman Trophy winner
Marcus Mariota.
The Titans started revamping
this offensive line in 2013, signing left guard Andy Levitre to a
six-year, $46.8 million deal and
drafting right guard Chance
Warmack at No. 10 overall. They
also drafted center Brian
Schwneke in the fourth round
that year and signed right tackle
Michael Oher in 2014 to a fouryear deal.
“We have the talent in the
room,” Lewan said.
But injuries swept through the
line last season with four different starters at left tackle and
three at right tackle. A knee
injury sidelined Schwenke after
11 games, leaving only Levitre
and Warmack to start every
game in a miserable 2-14 season.
Ranked 29th in the NFL in
total offense, the Titans struggled so much offensively they
were forced to throw early and
often. That allowed opposing
defenses to delve even deeper
during games, throwing schemes
and looks that they rarely used
in other games and further
harassing the Titans.
Tennessee made further
changes, cutting Oher early this
offseason and signing free agent
signee Byron Bell, who played
left tackle at Carolina. They also
drafted Jeremiah Poutasi in the
third round out of Utah, and the
men are competing to start at
right tackle. Veteran Fernando
Velasco also was signed in June
to help provide experience able to
play center and guard.
Schwenke said the offensive
linemen have been talking about
becoming this team’s foundation
since the end of last season.
That’s why they’re working to
handle their individual assignments properly first, then running downfield after the block to
make a path for the running
back.
“That’s kind of ... attacking
rather than being attacked mentality that we want,” Schwenke
said.
For an offensive line to attack,
the linemen have to block well
first for the run game.
Experience with each other also
builds chemistry, and four of the
five starters — Lewan, Levitre,
Schwenke and Warmack — have
no excuses going into their second season with coach Ken
Whisenhunt’s offense.
“There wasn’t any dropoff
coming into camp,” Warmack
said. “We all picked up where we
left off.”
The Titans drafted Mariota at
No. 2 overall believing he is the
quarterback to help end a playoff
drought that now is six seasons
and counting since the last postseason berth in 2008. A rookie
quarterback must have time to
throw to his wide receivers and
stay healthy. Three different
quarterbacks started last season
for Tennessee, and all three were
hurt at some point.
So Lewan wants his fellow
linemen harassing and bullying
defensive linemen all the time.
Play with a nasty attitude.
“If we get the right attitude, we
can be an offensive line that
nobody wants to play against,”
Lewan said.
Mariota collides with scout
during Titans’ night practice
(AP) — Marcus Mariota gave
the Tennessee Titans a momentary scare Monday night when he
scrambled and ran to the sideline where he crashed into a
scout.
Mariota popped right back up
and headed to the sideline after
hitting the scout who worked
hardest to convince the Titans to
draft the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback.
Mariota gave Marv Sunderland
a hand to help him back up
before running to the huddle.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt said
Sunderland, who scouts the
West for the Titans, was
Mariota’s biggest proponent this
offseason.
“And then Marv’s going to
knock him out on the sideline?
Thanks a lot, Marv,” Whisenhunt
joked.
The No. 2 draft pick overall out
of Oregon finished the practice
completing 11 of 15 passes in
team and seven-on-seven drills
combined. He is the only one of
four Titans quarterbacks who
has yet to be intercepted even
once through four practices of
training camp.
But seeing Mariota go down
worried not only fans but the
Titans. This franchise started
three different quarterbacks last
season because of injuries in a 214 season.
“Marc, I mean he’s a tough
guy,” tight end Delanie Walker
said. “When I (saw) it, I was
shocked at first. But again like I
said, he’s a tough guy. I wasn’t
too worried about it. He (jumped)
right up and went to the huddle.
He was smiling, so that’s a good
sign.”
Notes: OT Byron Stingily (illness), S Cody Prewitt (bruised
foot) and RB Antonio Andrews
(foot) did not practice Monday
night. With a day off Tuesday,
Whisenhunt said he expects all
three back Wednesday. ... The
Titans also had their first scraps
of camp with three different
fights, and safety Daimion
Stafford was involved in two.
Attorney for Hunter says Titans wide receiver
didn’t sucker punch anybody following brawl
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — The
attorney for Tennessee Titans
wide receiver Justin Hunter
said Monday that his client didn’t sucker punch anybody outside a Virginia Beach bar following a massive brawl inside of
it over the July Fourth weekend.
Hunter has been charged
with malicious wounding in his
hometown for punching someone multiple times, although
he’s been released on bond.
Prosecutors contend Hunter
interrupted a conversation a
man was having with someone
else at the Sandbar Raw Bar in
the oceanfront resort area of the
city.
After
words
were
exchanged, Hunter punched the
man in the face twice, according
to prosecutors. After a melee
ensued and the bar was cleared,
prosecutors contend the man
who Hunter originally punched
was bent over and spitting out
blood on the sidewalk, and
Hunter “sucker punched” him
again, before hopping into a
waiting vehicle. Prosecutors
said the man’s jaw was broken
and he had to be treated at a
hospital.
On Monday, Hunter attorney
Toby Vick said the sucker
punch never happened.
“He didn’t sucker punch anybody. We’re confident we’ll be
able to establish that,” Vick said
in a telephone interview from
his Richmond office.
Vick also said Hunter and his
friends were not the aggressors
in the bar fight.
“It’s not consistent with
Justin’s past or his demeanor,”
he said.
So far, Hunter is the only person who has been charged in
connection with the brawl.
Hunter has been largely quiet
on the topic. On Friday, he said
he’s focusing only on football
during training camp and
referred questions about his
arrest to Vick. A preliminary
hearing in the case is scheduled
for Sept. 3, hours before the
Titans are scheduled to host
Minnesota in their final preseason game. Vick said that date
would likely be pushed back.
Vick said several witnesses
would be able to corroborate
Hunter’s version of events. Vick
said the person who claims he
was punched by Hunter is a
convicted felon, although police
have not publicly identified him.
“We believe there are serious
inconsistencies that have
emerged in the person who
brought the charges story, and
we have also talked to a number
of witnesses.
Hunter played in 14 games as
a rookie, catching 18 passes for
354 yards and four touchdowns. He played 12 games
before a season-ending injury in
2014 and finished with 28
receptions for 498 yards and
three TDs.
Hunter has said he has not
heard yet from the NFL about
possible punishment.

Atlanta’s Jones hoping for new
contract before season begins
ATLANTA (AP) — After losing a
few pounds in the offseason,
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
Julio Jones believes he is stronger
and more explosive.
How much more explosive?
“Now, on go balls, I’ve got
another gear,” Jones said
Monday.
There could soon be a new contract for the Atlanta star, too. The
Falcons are in talks with Jones’
agent, Jimmy Sexton, on a contract extension for Jones, who can
become a free agent following the
season.
It seems likely that Jones, who
earned his second Pro Bowl spot
last season, will return in 2016 —
either with a new deal or with a
franchise tag. This season’s franchise tag was $12.8 million.
Jones would prefer the security
of a long-term deal. Two other top
NFL
receivers,
Denver’s
Demaryius Thomas and Dez
Bryant of Dallas, set the bar with
new $70 million contracts this
year.
Jones is set to earn about $10
million this year, the last season
of a four-year deal. He had no
update on the talks.
“Like I’ve said, seriously I don’t
know where it’s at,” he said. “I
don’t know when it’s going to be

done. None of that. I don’t know
what’s going on. I’m just here, just
playing ball.”
Sexton did not immediately
respond to a request for comment
from The Associated Press.
Jones was quarterback Matt
Ryan’s favorite target last season.
He set career highs with 104
catches and set a franchise record
with 1,593 yards receiving and
earned his second Pro Bowl spot.
He posted the big numbers in
his first season following the 2013
surgery to repair the fractured
fifth metatarsal in his right foot.
He broke the same bone in the
foot in 2011.
One year ago, Jones was testing
new shoes which protect the foot
and also trying to work his way
back into top condition. Now he
says he feels stronger following a
full offseason with no limitations.
He said he weighs 224 pounds
after losing about 5 pounds.
That’s not a dramatic difference
in Jones’ 6-foot-3 frame, but he
said he can feel the difference —
especially on deep routes.
“I’m more muscular now,
faster,” he said. “Also, like now, on
go balls, I’ve got another gear. I
can keep running for a long distance. My quads and hamstrings
are stronger. So I’m in and out of

Jones is more important than

signed with Tennessee. Roddy
White, 34, is still productive, but
had ankle and hamstring injuries

game in his first eight seasons,
White missed a combined five

but he fought two serious injuries

“My teams gave a good effort.
We had four boys shoot under 90,

we didn’t have Dylan. We had

added.
“Cade

have a chance to be really good
this year, but we’ve got to be more

The Mustangs fired an impressive 2-under 142 team score (on

over East Hamilton.
Puryear led the Walker Valley

the only Mustang to break 80.

Washington Redskins. He played

There is no other established
deep threat on Atlanta’s roster.
Rookie Justin Hardy, a fourthround pick from East Carolina,
shows promise.
There was more pressure on the
receivers last year following the
retirement of tight end Tony
Gonzalez. The Falcons hope newcomer Jacob Tamme can be a reliable short-yardage target for
Ryan.
Jones already has raced
through the secondary for several
long catches in the first week of
training camp, making a good first
impression with first-year coach
Dan Quinn.
“I know he had a terrific offseason just in terms of the way he
came back and the explosiveness
that he’s showing,” Quinn said.
“He’s ready to have a terrific year.”
Quinn said he also is impressed
with Jones as a leader, including
with rookie receiver Justin Hardy.
“He’s an unbelievably good
teammate, not just what you see
out on the practice field but in the
locker room, in the meeting
room,” Quinn said. “He’s one of
those rare guys who has the ability to stay focused for a long time.
That’s not easy to do.
“His mind is so clear on playing
the best he can, it’s really one of
the things I love about him as a
competitor.”

wAshinGton redsKins quArterBAcK Robert Griffin
III, left, and wide receiver DeSean Jackson talk during training
camp in Richmond, Va., Monday.
Jackson seeing progression
in Griffin, other quarterbacks
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Wide
receiver DeSean Jackson likes
what he’s seeing from Robert
Griffin III and the Washington
Redskins’ other two quarterbacks through the first five
days of training camp.
“I definitely have seen progression in RG3 and all the
other quarterbacks this year
too,” the speedy receiver said
Monday before the team worked
in full pads for the first time.
“I think it’s a year-to-year
basis,” he said. “Them guys are
young. They have some experience early in their career. They
just kind of have to build on
that, but I’ve definitely being
seeing them guys out here
making some great throws,
tremendous reads and getting
the ball to where it needs to go
to at the right time.”
The Redskins used Griffin,
Kirk Cousins and Colt McCoy
behind center last season, and
Jackson says that can only be a
positive. Griffin was sidelined
by a dislocated left ankle early
in the season, giving way to
Cousins, and Griffin then was
benched so McCoy could play.
Griffin returned late in the season and played in nine games
as the team finished 4-12.
For the year, Griffin completed almost 69 percent of his
attempts (147 of 214) for 1,694
yards, but with just four touchdown passes and six interceptions.
Second-year coach Jay
Gruden says he also has seen
progress from his starter.
“He’s been doing fine. Just
going back to the basics, really.
We’re continuing to build off
what we did last year and then
obviously in OTAs. It’s just all
about repetition now and gaining more knowledge of the system and anticipation and a feel
for the throws and the protections and the run game,” he
said. “Obviously a quarterback
has a lot on his plate and any
time we get a chance to go out
here and practice against our
defense and he’s got to make
sound, quick decisions, that’s a
good thing.
“I feel like he’s on a steady
climb and we’ve just got to keep
him that way.”
Griffin showed off some of his
better understanding of things
during Monday’s practice.
“We just went 80 yards in a
2-minute drive,” left tackle
Trent Williams said after practice. “That was all him, just
decision making, hitting guys
on time and getting the ball out
of his hand. I think he’s doing a
great job and continuing the
progress.”
It’s a sign of growth that leading running back Alfred Morris
has noticed, too, and is excited
about. Morris ran for 1,074
yards and eight touchdowns
last season and figures a
healthy, dual-threat Griffin can
only make running the ball easier.
“Sometimes I block or run my
route and turn around and
watch him make a play and I’m
like, ‘Man. That was a nice
pass,’” Morris said, adding that
he watches Griffin sometimes
while standing on the sideline.
“Just see him reading his progressions, watching his eye progression when I’m not in there
sometimes, (he’s) just going
from one progression to the
next in receivers. I think he
worked really hard this offseason and in OTAs and now going
into camp, he’s still doing it.
“He’s been looking good.”
Giants GM Reese speaks
with injured DE Pierre-Paul
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
(AP) — The New York Giants
finally have spoken with defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul
about his injuries.
Giants general manager
Jerry Reese said Monday morning in a radio interview that “it
was a personal conversation,
and I want to keep it private
between him and I.”
Reese adds that the Giants
are not annoyed about their
inability to communicate with
Pierre-Paul since he was
injured in a fireworks accident
July 4 in Florida. The team has
not released details of the
injuries suffered by Pierre-Paul
in part because it has not been
given the opportunity to physically examine him.
Reese said on WFAN in New
York that he also has spoken to
Pierre-Paul’s agent. Pierre-Paul
has yet to sign his franchise tag
tender, worth $14.8 million for
2015. Should he wind up on
the non-football injury list once
he signs it, the Giants would
not be liable to pay him as long
as he is on that list.

As difficult as it is for me to realize that it
is presently “back to school” week for many
across our community, I am sure that some
of our students also are having a difficult
time comprehending that their summer

While there are many changes that have
made their way into the school settings,
there are also a few that may never change.
Traffic: There will always be at least one
parent, or possibly a student (if they are
driving themselves to school) that think that
the rules do NOT APPLY to them. Many
hours are devoted to not only studying the
traffic patterns, but in also trying to improve
upon this process.

other than watching out for irate or distracted drivers. The best thing that can possibly
happen is for everyone to not only attend
their school, but to also arrive and depart
from their school safely.
Inclusion: If you remember television
from the 1980s and 1990s, you invariably
remember the theme song that had the tag
line “where everybody knows your name.”
The ability to “belong” has many names, but
most schools have found the term “school
spirit” to be fitting and appropriate.
But if there are those who belong, there
are also invariably those who feel like this is
an unattainable attribute that is simply for
others and not for them. I urge those of
school age to take the time to look around
their immediate group or circle of friends to
find those who have not been able to fit in
or find their place in each classroom setting.
And if you see someone who may need a
friend, be a friend. It does not take a lot of
time nor energy to be kind to one another.

COUNTY

This skill is one that will serve you well
into your adult years and who knows, the
friend you make today may become a lifelong friend. They may look different, act different, learn different, believe different and
even need adaptive equipment to achieve
mobility, but I guarantee you that we are all
the same in our need for friendship, purpose
and a sense of belonging.
Stress: If you remembered the television
show mentioned previously, you are probably also part of the group that will remember the Friday spelling tests or the two
words that struck fear into me at school,
“Pop Quiz.” There are those to whom no test
was ever too hard. Then there are those like
the rest of us who may have all of the skill
sets necessary to achieve a passing grade,
but the mere mention of the word “test”
caused panic.
If this describes you, or your child, you
are not alone. One truth that I found helpful
is the well-known phrase “... that a test only
tests what a test can test.” There are visual
learners, tactile learners and even auditory
learners, each with a strength and weakness.
Reassure each student that while a test is
very important, it is also vital to remember
that comprehension and retention of the
material are also important lifelong traits
that will serve each individual throughout
one’s entire life. The sooner that this is
understood, there are methods that are
available for each type of learner to not only
achieve good exam scores but also an even
better return from their educational investment called life.
Chivalry: This term is not one used much
anymore, much less in the back-to-school
dialogue, but I feel that is also very important. It is important to have pride in one’s
school and also their individual achievements and abilities.
I once heard a wise person explain that
“... you never build yourself up by tearing
someone else down.” This, too, is another
life lesson that is best learned early. The
ability to know this fact will help one
throughout their entire life and for whatever
and wherever their educational pursuits
may take them in the future.
All of our schools, at every location,
across our community have wonderful
futures as they strive for their individual, as
well as our collective good and betterment,
of our society. May we each learn that we all
have worth and all are deserving of respect
and compassion.
While books are becoming obsolete and
tablets the new tools as well as chalkboards
a distant memory, education will always be
a gift that we all hope for our children. This
gift is one that is not only valuable today,
but brings great return on its investment for
years and decades to come.
To our students, enjoy another year. To
our parents and everyone else, be extra
careful and mindful, especially in school
zones.
Cleveland and Bradley County schools …
more reasons that Bradley County is, and
will continue to be, Tennessee at its best!

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Tuesday, August 4,
the 216th day of 2015. There are
149 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On August 4, 1790, the U.S.
Coast Guard had its beginnings
as President George Washington
signed a measure authorizing a
group of revenue cutters to
enforce tariff and trade laws and
prevent smuggling.
On this date:
In 1735, a jury found John
Peter Zenger of the New York
Weekly Journal not guilty of committing seditious libel against the
colonial governor of New York,
William Cosby.
In 1830, plans for the city of
Chicago were laid out.
In 1892, Andrew and Abby
Borden were axed to death in
their home in Fall River,
Massachusetts. Lizzie Borden,
Andrew’s daughter from a previous marriage, was accused of the
killings, but acquitted at trial.
In 1914, Britain declared war
on Germany for invading
Belgium; the United States proclaimed its neutrality in the
mushrooming world conflict.
In 1915, English nurse Edith
Cavell was arrested by German
authorities in occupied Belgium;
she was executed later that year.
In 1936, Jesse Owens of the
U.S. won the second of his four
gold medals at the Berlin
Olympics as he prevailed in the
long jump over German Luz
Long, who was the first to congratulate him.
In 1944, 15-year-old diarist
Anne Frank was arrested with
her sister, parents and four others by the Gestapo after hiding
for two years inside a building in
Amsterdam. (Anne and her sister, Margot, died at the BergenBelsen concentration camp.)
In 1964, the bodies of missing
civil rights workers Michael
Schwerner, Andrew Goodman
and James Chaney were found
buried in an earthen dam in
Mississippi.
In 1975, the Swedish pop
group ABBA began recording
their hit single “Dancing Queen”
at
Glen
Studio
outside
Stockholm (it was released a year
later).
In 1977, President Jimmy
Carter signed a measure establishing the Department of
Energy.
In
1987,
the
Federal
Communications Commission
voted to abolish the Fairness
Doctrine, which required radio
and television stations to present
balanced coverage of controversial issues.
In 1991, the Greek luxury liner
Oceanos sank in heavy seas off
South Africa’s southeast coast;
all the passengers and crew
members survived.
Ten years ago: Al-Qaida’s No.
2, Ayman al-Zawahri, threatened
more destruction in London in a
videotape aired on Al-Jazeera. He
also threatened the United States
with tens of thousands of military dead if it did not withdraw
from Iraq; President George W.
Bush responded by saying, “We
will stay the course, we will complete the job.” A 19-year-old
Israeli soldier opened fire inside a
bus, killing four Israeli Arabs; an
angry crowd then killed the gunman. A mini-submarine carrying
seven Russians became caught
on an underwater antenna 600
feet below the surface of the
Pacific Ocean; the men were rescued three days later with help
from a British vessel.
Five years ago: BP PLC
reported the broken well head at
the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico
was plugged up with mud;
President Barack Obama said
the battle to contain one of the
world’s worst oil spills was “finally close to coming to an end.”
Eight days after turning 35, Alex
Rodriguez hit his 600th home
run, becoming the youngest player to attain the milestone. (ARod’s two-run, first-inning drive
off Toronto’s Shaun Marcum put
New York ahead, and the
Yankees coasted to a 5-1 victory
over the Blue Jays.)
One year ago: On the first day
of a U.S.-Africa summit in
Washington, President Barack
Obama announced $33 billion in
commitments aimed at shifting
U.S. ties with Africa beyond
humanitarian aid and toward
more equal economic partnerships. Israel and Hamas accepted an Egyptian cease-fire proposal meant to halt a bruising
monthlong war that had claimed
nearly 2,000 lives. James Brady,
73, the affable, witty press secretary who had survived a devastating head wound in the 1981
assassination attempt against
President Ronald Reagan and
undertook a personal campaign
for gun control, died in
Alexandria, Virginia.
Today’s Birthdays: Singer
Frankie Ford is 76. Actresssinger Tina Cole is 72. Actorcomedian Richard Belzer is 71.
Football Hall-of-Famer John
Riggins is 66. Former Attorney
General Alberto Gonzales is 60.
Dear Annie: After relocating in
retirement, I find people correcting or commenting negatively
about my pronunciation. In 70
years, I cannot recall one incident
of people doing that where I previously lived.
Recently, a woman I thought of
as a friend turned to another
woman to comment on my pronunciation. While this has happened only a few times, it has
made me uncomfortable and I
have started to withdraw, keeping
to myself.
What can I say to people who
do this? Or should I just stay
home? — Hurt and Unwelcome
Dear Hurt: Please don’t stay
home and isolate yourself. If you
have moved to a new area, it’s
likely that you have a regional
accent and others simply need to
get used to it. If someone says
something hurtful, politely reply,
“This is the way I speak. I’m sorry
you find it so offensive.” We hope
they will fall over themselves
apologizing for their rudeness.

DR. PAUL CONN, the president of Lee University, shares
some of the lessons he learned
from the namesake of the Lillie F.
Fitzgerald
Excellence
in
Teaching Award.
LAKE FOREST Middle School teacher Jeremiah Pritchard, second from left, is the recipient of this year’s Lillie F. Fitzgerald
Excellence in Teaching Award, presented at Monday’s convocation of
Bradley, Cleveland and Polk educators. Stopping for a photograph
following the announcement were, from left, Bradley Cleveland
Public Education Foundation President Matt Bentley, Pritchard,
Margot Fitzgerald and Dr. Rodney Fitzgerald.
Pritchard

teacher has done this on many
occasions.”
Pritchard earned a bachelor of
science degree in special education from Lee University and both
a master of science in administration and supervision and an
education specialist degree in
curriculum and instruction from
Lincoln Memorial University.
He spent four years teaching
special education before landing
at Lake Forest, where he has
taught for the past 14 years.
He is also involved in a variety
of community activities, serving
as the director of music at Old
Pathway Baptist Church, working
with the Cleveland City Ballet,
choreographing for Bang-a-Rang
Productions, participating in the
Big Brother program and coordinating a gospel choir consisting of
his current and former students.
Fitzgerald said Pritchard’s
nomination letters told story after
story of how the teacher has
made a difference in the lives of
students and their families.
He added Pritchard routinely
gives “110 percent of his professional best,” devotes much time
to his students and is “one of the
most compassionate, forgiving
people” who is able to handle difficult situations with grace.
“His structured classroom and
the ability to connect with students who are high-achieving or
difficult to love makes him a ‘kid
magnet,’” Fitzgerald said. “He
mentors students and integrates
life skills such as conflict resolution, responsibility and respect
into his lessons. He understands
what makes a middle-schooler
‘tick,’ and as a result, his students excel.”
Fitzgerald shared how one parent said Pritchard has a heart that
gives him the ability to say and do
things that make students better.
Another parent said he “has a
captivating charisma that invites
students to step out and dare to
be great [and[ overcome bashfulness, low self-esteem or the fear
of failure.”
One former student, who nominated him, said she had experienced a lot of “turmoil” a home
during her middle school years,
and Pritchard was a daily source
of encouragement.
Another parent explained how
she had lost an older son in a
tragic car accident. Pritchard
reached out to the family and
gathered a group of singers to
perform at her son’s funeral.
Fitzgerald said she wrote that she
“was overwhelmed with emotions
from joy to tears and utmost
appreciation.”
As the educators packed into
the sanctuary of North Cleveland
Church of God erupted into
applause, Pritchard made his
way to the stage, where he shook
hands with Fitzgerald and BCPEF
board president Matt Bentley
before he stood taking in the
sight of his supporters.
For several moments he did not
speak, as if he was busy looking
for the words to say to describe
what he was feeling.
“Thank you,” Prichard said
after making reference to a previous speaker stressing the importance of thanking others. “I don’t
know what else to say.”
The award had been kept a
surprise to him. He said his only
clue was his wife urging him to
dress well for the gathering earlier that morning.
Once on stage to accept the
award, he discovered his family
was in attendance so they could
be among the first to celebrate
with him.
Pritchard received the award
along with two checks from the
public education foundation.
Bentley presented him with
$2,000 to be used for any needs
he sees at his school and $3,000
to be used any way he chooses.
The award’s namesake, Lillie
Frank Fitzgerald, was a teacher
at Bradley Central High School
known for her own excellence in
teaching. She taught English and
speech there for 37 years and
earned the respect of many and a
spot in the Tennessee Teachers’
Hall of Fame located at Middle
Tennessee State University.
Lee University President Dr.
Paul Conn, one of her former students, reflected on her contributions before Pritchard received
his award.
Taking her English class as a
senior at Bradley Central, Conn
said she was a tough teacher who
wanted to make sure her students learned what they needed
to learn.
Conn said she was the teacher
who inspired him to become a
teacher.
While he does not teach as
much as he once did because he
is a university president, he said
he now has the privilege of
“putting students in the presence
of individuals who will transform
their lives.”
Explaining how one of his most
prized possessions is his former
teacher’s personal copy of an
American literature textbook,
Conn said one handwritten note
in that book stood out to him.
Looking at the past literary
greats, she wrote, “What will our
legacy be?”
Great teachers focus on leaving
great legacies for their students
and inspiring students to want to
do the same, Conn said.
He also shared another experience when his teacher reprimanded him for him not thanking her after he had gotten an
award for English in college.
Conn said that was the first
time he realized the teachers who
work diligently to pour into students’ lives are always deserving
of students’ thanks.
He said he encouraged Lee
University’s most recent graduating class to show appreciation to
the unsung heroes in their lives,
the caring teachers and others
who may have helped them get
where they are today.
“Go find somebody to thank,”
he advised both the graduates
and the teachers who had likely
been inspired by good teachers.

said the high roof over the facility

The construction company has

staff with the new school year
beginning today.
“You’ve noticed progress on the
exterior, but soon most of the
progress will be on the inside,”
Templeton said.
Closure of the roof is a huge
step, as it will protect workers on
the interior of the building during
wetter and colder weather conditions this fall.
Templeton said the cooperative
weather has allowed the contractor to remain on schedule, with
the completion date continuing to
be Feb. 26, 2016.
The board approved several
items on the consent agenda

board meeting since classes were
just beginning today.
Voytik’s family, including brother and University of Pittsburgh
quarterback Chad Voytik, were
vacationing in Destin, Fla., but
she remained in Cleveland for her
first board meeting.
“I’ve always been a nerd, and I
enjoyed the meeting,” she said.

taught to be too soft (and that
needs to change).
“I’m from North Carolina. I’m
from the country,” Clark said
when he took the stage. “I lived
four miles down a dirt road. “
When he went to college, he
worked at Dunkin’ Donuts. When
he graduated, he decided to go to
Europe, but had only enough
money for a one-way ticket to
London. He went anyway.
In Europe, he worked for a
restaurant for a while, living on
cucumber sandwiches. He then
lived with some gypsies, but got
food poisoning and was hospitalized. His mother used her
credit card and brought him
home.
When he recovered, his mother
told him to go talk to the principal at the local school about a
job.
“I wanted to go to Texas,” he
said.
He went to the school,
“because my momma made me.”
Clark met one student who
wouldn’t talk, and he realized he
didn’t know the alphabet. He
began to explain the letters with
flash cards. The boy learned to
read. He read to the other students and they were amazed. He
then began to teach them letters,
soliciting help from the lady in
the cafeteria, the janitor and
even the grocer at the supermarket where the kids would go to
buy candy.
They would have to identify letters before anyone would wait on
them.
“The kids were getting excited,
and it was like an Easter egg
hunt,” Clark said. From that
lowly beginning, his teaching
philosophy was founded.
He said he opened the door to
those kids, giving them a chance
to learn.
“We’ll never grow or expand
our profession if we close doors,”
he exclaimed.
Clark then explained his philosophy in education.
“What makes your school great
is not the kids, not the curriculum, not the building and not the
parents,” he said.
“In each school, you have runners,” he explained. “They’re the
ones who go above and beyond.
Runners want everybody to do
their job, and they make sacrifices.”
“China spends just
under a trillion dollars
on their ‘gifted’ students.
In America, it’s all about
the self-esteem of our
children. They’re taught
that they are awesome.
They don’t learn
a work ethic.”
— Ron Clark Jr.
He expanded the philosophy
noting, “You also have joggers,
walkers and riders. Joggers want
more attention. Walkers want the
runners and joggers to slow
down, and they tend to be negative.”
The riders, he said, are the
ones who sit around.
Clark also pointed out that
there are no perfect schools.
“I teach at the best school in
the world, and we have problems,” he said.
Some of those problems come,
Clark said, from negative people.
He said when you hang around
negative people, you become like
a sponge and soak up negativity.
He said when class leaders
become negative, they pull others
along with them.
Clark said when he realizes
he’s around negative people, he
becomes positive.
After discussing the different
types of student personalities,
Clark said, “Runners are the
heart of your school. You have to
depend on them.”
“That’s the way I run my
school, he said of his teaching
tactics in South Carolina,
Harlem and now Atlanta.
While in Harlem, he appeared
on the “Oprah Winfrey” television
show twice. She called him her
first “Phenomenal man.” At the
urging of Oprah, he wrote a book
which climbed to No. 2 on the
best seller list, behind Harry
Potter.
Clark said some parents tell
him their children are in the
“gifted” program.
“Ignorance is bliss,” he said.
The teacher-author-motivator,
who uses his animation to entertain audiences, asked if anyone
knew how much money the government puts into the nation’s
programs for “gifted” students.
He answered his own question by
saying “it’s zero.”
“China spends just under a
trillion dollars on their ‘gifted’
students,” he said.
“In America, it’s all about the
self-esteem of our children,”
Clark continued. “They’re taught
that they are awesome. They
don’t learn a work ethic.”
“We give our kids too much,”
he added. “In America, when we
challenge our kids, they cry.”
He said he doesn’t understand
why on Little League teams, at
the end of the season, they all get
a trophy.
“Kids will be what you raise
them to be. You’re raising soft
kids,” Clark pointed out.
Clark told the teachers that if
they make a mistake in their
teaching, it’s their mistake and
they own it. He said they need to
have a lot of tricks to generate
interest and enthusiasm among
the students.
“I’ve visited more than 300
classrooms across the country,”
Clark said. “I see teachers praising students, but I don’t see students praising students.”
“We have to teach our kids how
to act,” he said. “We have to
teach them to lift each other up.
At the academy in Atlanta, he
said they teach the students to
continually praise each other,
and support one another.
“You don’t have to do this
stuff,” he told the teachers at the
end of Monday’s program, “but
you have to do something. You
have to go out and be with your
kids, and look them in the eye.”
“There are things we all can do
to provide a better education,”
Clark said.
At the Atlanta academy, he
said the teachers are constantly
in action. They use a slide from
the second floor to the first floor.
They do not allow use of the
intercom through the day, and
activities are energetic and
intense.
Clark invited the local teachers
to come to Atlanta and visit the
academy.
“If you do, you need to come
with an open mind,” he said.
“You’ll see things you’ve never
seen before.”
He said the teachers can use
the slide.
“But, I urge you to do more
than slide,” he emphasized.

Obama’s power plant climate plan shifts to courts, states
WASHINGTON (AP) — President
Barack Obama sought to clamp
down Monday on power plant
emissions with a federal plan that
— if successful — would attempt
to slow global warming by dramatically shifting the way
Americans get and use electricity.
Touting the plan at a White
House
ceremony,
Obama
described his unprecedented carbon dioxide limits as the biggest
step ever taken by the U.S. on climate change. On that point, at
least, his opponents agreed. They
denounced his proposal as egregious federal overreach that would
send power prices surging, and
vowed lawsuits and legislation to
try to stop it.
“We’re the first generation to
feel the impact of climate change,
and we’re the last generation that
can do something about it,”
Obama said. He added, “We only
get one planet. There’s no Plan B.”
Obama’s announcement sets
off a years-long process for states
to figure out how to comply.
Sixteen states — including
energy-producing states like
Kentucky, Wyoming and North
Dakota — will face stricter emissions limits than they did under
Obama’s previous proposal.
Montana’s requirement more than
doubled, from a 21 percent cut in
the earlier plan to a 47 percent cut
in the final version.
But other states like New
Hampshire and Texas face more
lenient cuts in the final plan.
Three states got a pass from the
Environmental Protection Agency
and won’t have to reduce emissions: Vermont, Alaska and
Hawaii.
By the time the plan takes
effect, Obama will be long out of
office. Still, Obama was hoping
that the plan would bolster his
status as the first president to
seriously tackle climate change,
to 25 states would join his suit
against the government.
“Their legal foundation is very,
very shaky,” Morrisey said of the
Obama administration.
Morrisey echoed other critics in
arguing Obama has exceeded his
authority by requiring statewide
steps like renewable energy use
and reduced energy demand. He
said under the Clean Air Act, the
government can only require
steps within a power plant.
In another hint of the likely
legal strategy, Morrisey cited the
Constitution’s 10th Amendment,
which protects the states against
undue intrusion by Washington.

President BArAck Obama speaks about his Clean Power
Plan, Monday in the East Room at the White House in Washington.
The president is mandating even steeper greenhouse gas cuts from
U.S. power plants than previously expected, while granting states
more time and broader options to comply.
and galvanize other countries to
take aggressive action to achieve
a global climate treaty this year.
Under the plan, first proposed
last year, the U.S. must cut overall
power plant emissions 32 percent
by 2030, compared to 2005 levels.
The Obama administration said it
would cost $8.4 billion annually
by 2030, but argued that power
bills would decrease because people would use less electricity and
rely more heavily on low-cost
sources like wind and solar. The
energy industry has dismissed
those estimates as overly rosy.
Here’s what lies ahead for
Obama’s controversial plan:
LAWSUITS ABOUND
Threats of legal action started
arrived within minutes of Obama
unveiling his plan. In Texas,
Kentucky, Kansas, Indiana and
Wisconsin, to name a few, top officials said they would vigorously
fight the rule, as did energy producers like Murray Energy Corp.,
a coal mining company.
In the coal-heavy state of West
Virginia, state Attorney General
Patrick Morrisey predicted that 20
PASSING THE BATON
Another key threat could come
from Obama’s successor. Because
of the lengthy timeline — states
have 7 years to start complying —
the next president will have ample
time to unravel the rules if he or
she chooses to do so. That means
that a cornerstone of Obama’s
presidential legacy rests in someone else’s hands.
Hillary Rodham Clinton, the
front-runner for the Democratic
nomination, has pledged to
defend the rule if elected. But the
Republican field is making the
opposite pledge.
GOP candidates claimed
Obama’s actions are burdensome
to business and block job creation. Wisconsin Gov. Scott
Walker said the regulation was
like a “buzz saw” to the U.S. economy, while former Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush said the plan “will throw
countless people out of work and
increases everyone’s energy
prices.”
STATE OF AFFAIRS
Each state now has an individualized emissions reduction target
to meet — in some cases higher
than Obama’s previous proposal,
Obama power plant rules spark 2016 fight
WASHINGTON (AP) — President
Barack Obama’s sweeping new
power plant regulations are thrusting the divisive debate over climate
change into the race for the White
House, with candidates in both
parties seeing an opportunity to
capitalize.
To Democrats, rallying around
global climate change is a way to
energize liberal supporters and
paint Republicans as out of touch
with the majority of Americans. To
the GOP, Obama’s executive
actions to curb greenhouse gas
emissions are burdensome to
business and block job creation,
an argument targeting Americans’
worries about the economy.
The president unveiled the plan
at the White House Monday, call-
ing it the “single most important
step” the U.S. has taken to combat
a major global threat.
Broad support for the rules by
Democratic candidates and universal
opposition
from
Republicans puts the parties’
eventual nominees on a generalelection collision course. Most of
the changes Obama outlined
would have to be implemented by
the next president, if the rules survive court challenges.
Republicans gave little indication of what they would do differently to curb emissions from U.S.
power plants, if anything at all.
They cast the measure requiring
states to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 32 percent by 2030 as
unnecessary and costly White
House overreach that will raise
energy costs for Americans.
The Obama administration itself
estimated the emissions limits will
cost $8.4 billion annually by 2030,
though the actual price won’t be
clear until states decide how they
would reach their targets.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a
Republican, said the regulations
would be an economic “buzz saw”
that would “cost hard-working
Americans jobs and raise their
energy rates.” Jeb Bush, the former GOP governor of Florida, said
the rules “run over state governments, will throw countless people
out of work and increases everyone’s energy prices.”
Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz
questioned whether climate
Fire sale on stuff that burns
NEW YORK (AP) — These days
it seems whatever can be burned
to power a car, heat a home, make
electricity or ship people and
goods around the globe is being
sold at bargain basement prices.
Prices for coal, natural gas, oil
and the fuels made from crude
such as gasoline and diesel are all
far less expensive than they have
been in recent years.
Consumers are rejoicing. Fossil
fuel companies are reeling.
Countries that import energy,
such as the U.S., China, Japan
and those in the European Union,
are getting an economic boost.
Exporters, such as Russia, Saudi
Arabia and Venezuela are facing
lower income and budget shortfalls.
Commodities in general are
slumping. The S&P global commodity index hit its lowest level
since 2002 on July 27, lower even
than during the 2008 global
financial crisis.
The recent price declines are a
result of complex factors that
have led to a simple outcome:
There is more than enough fossil
fuels at the ready than customers
need.
“We just have too much energy
hitting the world,” says Suzanne
Minter, manager for oil and gas
consulting at Bentek Energy, a
division of Platts.
CRUDE OIL
Price: Average for the year
through July is $53 a barrel,
down 48 percent compared with
the same period last year and on
track for its lowest annual average since 2004. On Monday U.S.
crude posted another sharp
decline, falling 4 percent to
$45.17 a barrel.
Reason: Huge increases in oil
production in the U.S. and
Canada, along with sizable gains
in Iraq and elsewhere, helped
boost global supplies. Saudi
Arabia and other OPEC nations
kept pumping crude at high levels. Iranian crude could soon
return to the market after being
kept off by sanctions. Meanwhile,
global demand for crude is not as
strong as expected because
China’s growth has cooled and
other economies have become
more energy efficient.
FUELS
Gasoline: The average U.S.
retail price is down 30 percent
through the first half of the year.
It is now $2.65 a gallon, according
to AAA, lower for this time of year
than any other year over the last
decade except 2009.
Diesel and heating oil: Average
retail prices for both are down 27
percent.
Reason: When oil prices fall,
the cost for refiners to turn it into
petroleum products and fuels
goes down. U.S. refineries have
been running at full strength, and
big new refineries in Saudi Arabia
and elsewhere have added to
global supplies of fuels.
NATURAL GAS
Futures: U.S. futures have
averaged $2.77 per thousand
cubic feet through the first half of
the year, 40 percent lower than
last year.
Residential prices: Averaged 9
percent lower through the first
half of the year. For the full year,
natural gas is expected to average $10.27 per thousand cubic
feet, the lowest since 2003,
according to the Energy
Department.
Reason: U.S. production is
strong. Relatively mild weather
has tempered demand for heating and electric power plants.
Around the world, natural gas
prices have also fallen because
they are often linked to the price
of crude and production of liquefied natural gas that can be
shipped overseas is ramping up.
COAL
Price: The average price of coal
used for electricity from Central
Appalachia is 20 percent lower
than last year, according to Platts.
In June, the price hit an eightyear low.
Reason: Coal is sitting in piles
or being left underground as U.S.
electric power generators burn
cheap natural gas instead. In
April natural gas briefly overtook
coal as the top fuel for electric
power for the first time.
Demand for coal is growing
globally, but local mining capacity
is also growing. Pollution concerns and slower global economic
growth are also keeping a lid on
coal demand.
Coal consumption could fall
even more dramatically if rules
announced Monday by President
Barack Obama to limit carbon
dioxide from electric power plants
survive expected legal challenges.
HOW LOW PRICES HELP
Lower energy prices are good
for consumers, giving them more
money to spend, and for the
broader economy. Consumer
spending accounts for about twothirds of the U.S. economy.
While sales at retailers haven’t
spiked, as economists thought
they might, consumer spending is
growing faster than the overall
economy, suggesting lower fuel
prices have helped.
“It’s not this huge boost in
spending but it is very good news,
relieving pressure at a time when
wage growth is not very strong,”
says Nariman Behravesh, chief
economist at IHS.
He calculates that the decline
in gasoline prices is saving customers about $800 a year compared with what they were spending between 2010 and 2014.
HOW LOW PRICES HURT
Energy company profits and
share prices have been crushed.
Quarterly earnings dropped 52
percent at Exxon and 90 percent
at Chevron, the companies
announced last week.
On Monday Alpha Natural
Resources became the fourth U.S.
coal company to seek bankruptcy
protection in the last 15 months.
The lower revenue and profit
are taking a toll on employment.
The U.S. coal industry has lost
21,000 workers since 2011,
according
to
the
Labor
Department, a decline of 24 percent.
change is really occurring.
“I’m saying the data and facts
don’t support it,” Cruz said at a
retreat sponsored by billionaire
brothers Charles and David Koch,
heavily courted donors who
strongly oppose Obama’s climate
change agenda.
The issue has also fueled the
fundraising race for Democrats.
Billionaire environmentalist Tom
Steyer dropped $74 million into
the 2014 midterm elections for
candidates who support policies to
curb climate change. Despite such
spending, Democrats gave up control of the Senate, lost seats in the
House and suffered embarrassing
defeats in gubernatorial races.
Steyer hosted a fundraiser earlier this year for Hillary Rodham
Clinton, the front-runner for the
Democratic nomination. Clinton
called Obama’s power plant measure a “significant step forward”
and said she would defend it if
elected president. Her Democratic
challengers were similarly supportive.
Power plants account for roughly one-third of all U.S. emissions of
the heat-trapping gases blamed for
global warming, making them the
largest single source.
Obama has already used executive actions to curb greenhouse
gas emissions from other major
sources,.

in some cases lower. States must
submit implementation plans by
2018.
Starting in 2022, states will
have to reduce emissions, but the
cuts are phased in gradually until
2030, when states must meet
their overall target. In 2020 and
2021, states that invest in renewable sources like wind and solar
will earn credits that they can
store away to offset pollution emitted later.
To meet their targets, states can
use a variety of measures, including new technology to capture
emissions, regional cap-and-trade
schemes and energy efficiency
programs.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., has urged GOP
governors not to comply, and
many have agreed. McConnell
also vowed Monday to use legislation to stop the plan, although
Obama’s veto power makes that
option unlikely.
If a state refuses to submit a

More fights about
Planned Parenthood
after Senate vote
WASHINGTON (AP) — In the
aftermath of the Senate’s derailing
of Republican legislation halting
federal dollars for Planned
Parenthood, one thing seems clear:
Many on both sides think they can
ring up gains from the battle.
Within minutes of Monday’s
Senate vote, abortion-rights groups
were releasing TV ads attacking
GOP supporters of the measure for
stomping on women’s health care
needs. Conservatives were accusing Democrats of voting to protect
taxpayer funds for an organization
whose campaign contributions tilt
lopsidedly to Democratic candidates.
And each party was bracing for
the fight to be revisited when
Congress returns next month from
its recess.
The Republican drive was
prompted by videos secretly
recorded by anti-abortion activists
that show Planned Parenthood officials coolly describing how they
sometimes provide fetal tissue to
medical researchers. Abortion
opponents say the recordings
caught Planned Parenthood illegally selling the organs for profit,
while Planned Parenthood — while
apologizing for their workers’ businesslike words — say they’ve abided by laws that let them recoup the
procedures’ costs.
Monday’s Senate vote was 53-46
to halt Democratic delaying tactics
aimed at killing the GOP bill. That
was seven short of the 60 votes
needed to keep the measure moving toward passage.
Democrats Joe Donnelly of
Indiana and Joe Manchin of West
Virginia, and Illinois Republican
Mark Kirk, who faces a tough reelection fight next year, crossed
party lines in the roll call. So did
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., who voted with
victorious Democrats because it
will let him force a fresh vote later.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a
presidential candidate, was in New
Hampshire and didn’t vote.
Republicans expected to lose
but envisioned political gain
because the videos have fired up
their core conservative, anti-abortion voters.
Underscoring
that,

Perkins, president of the anti-

abortion Family Research Center,
said Congress “must take the next
step” and end Planned Parenthood
funding when lawmakers return
next month.
That’s when lawmakers will
consider legislation keeping government agencies open after their
budgets
expire
Oct.
1.
Conservatives see that as an
opportunity to keep money for
Planned Parenthood out of those
bills, though GOP leaders, concerned that their party could be
blamed, would prefer to avoid a
government shutdown battle with
President Barack Obama.
The White House issued no
statement on the Senate vote.
The Republican measure calls
for
funneling
Planned
Parenthood’s federal dollars to
other providers of health care to
women, including hospitals, state
and local agencies and federally
financed community health centers. Planned Parenthood and its
allies say that would mean that
many of its 2.7 million annual
clients — many of whom are lowincome women — would lose
health care.
National Right to Life President
Carol Tobias said the movement
against Planned Parenthood was
gaining strength, calling it “a longterm project” and describing
Planned Parenthood as “a major
backer of many Democratic senators.”
According to the nonpartisan
Center for Responsive Politics,
Planned Parenthood’s campaign
spending in the 2014 elections
included $4.2 million in outside
spending — which it used nearly
exclusively to support Democrats
or oppose GOP candidates.
Planned Parenthood President
Cecile Richards said Monday’s vote
showed the bill was “a political
nonstarter.” Acknowledging that
Republicans may continue the battle, she said: “This fight may not be
over, but we’re ready for it.”
A Planned Parenthood ally,
NARAL Pro-Choice America, said it
would run TV ads this week
attacking three GOP senators
seeking re-election in 2016: Kelly
Ayotte of New Hampshire, Rob
Portman of Ohio and Ron Johnson
of Wisconsin.
