Wyo. grow;
more people
evacuate
CHEYENNE (AP) — A large
wildfire burning out of control
in the Shoshone National Forest
in northwest Wyoming forced
the evacuations of hundreds of
people and prompted fire managers to bring in more firefighters
and other resources, including a
Wyoming National Guard unit.
The fire west of Dubois has
burned nearly 11 square miles
(28.49 sq. kilometers) and is
threatening about 290 seasonal
homes and guest ranches in the
area.
No structures have been lost so
far, but Wyoming state forester
Bill Crapser said about 900 people
have been evacuated. One summer youth camp accounted for
about 200 people alone, Crapser
said.
Gov. Matt Mead activated a
National Guard medivac helicopter and its crew to assist if needed. In addition, more specialized
firefighters and large air tankers
were added to the fight.
“More homes are being threatened, more people are being
evacuated, and the threat and
projected movement of the fire
is such that the landowner, the
Forest Service, has decided that
it’s time to bring in the national
type 1 team,” fire spokesman Nick
Mickel said.
The rough terrain, the dry fuels
and windy weather make the fire
particularly difficult to battle,
Crapser said. “It’s been a really
hard fire for them to be able to
put crews in to get any type of
containment of the fire,” he said.
Firefighters have yet to gain any
containment on the fire, which
was started July 11 by lightning.
In neighboring Bridger-Teton
National Forest, a fire has grown
to 26 square miles (67.34 sq. kilometers) and is about 10 percent
contained.
Two smaller fires are burning
in the Bighorn National Forest.
One that has burned about four
square miles northeast of Ten
Sleep was started last Friday by
a hot brake lining that broke off
from a passing vehicle, according
to fire officials.

SHERIDAN — The Big Horn
County coroner in Montana confirmed Wednesday morning that
23-year-old Anna Rowland died
Tuesday in a rollover accident
on Decker Highway.
The coroner, Terry Bullis,
said Rowland died in the accident that occurred about 8.5
miles north of the WyomingMontana border on Highway 314
near Decker, Montana. Decker
Highway, known as Highway
338 in Wyoming changes to
Highway 314 at the state line.
Sheridan County Sheriff’s
Office deputies arrived on scene
first. Lt. Allen Thompson with
the SCSO said two people were
involved in the crash and the
22-year-old male believed to be
the driver said he had driven off
the roadway and over corrected
when he lost control of the vehicle.
No additional details were
available on the cause of the
crash and the incident is
being investigated by the Big
Horn County Sheriff’s Office
in Montana and the Montana
Highway Patrol.

FROM STAFF REPORTS
BIGHORN MOUNTAINS — Fire crews working
to suppress the Hatchery and Arden fires in the
Bighorn Mountains continue to make progress on
the fires’ containment levels.
Meanwhile, due to the extreme dryness of fuels
in the Bighorn National Forest, officials will
implement fire restrictions beginning at 12:01
a.m. Friday and are bringing in additional crews
to be on standby until moisture levels increase or
the fire danger decreases.
Susie Douglas, public affairs specialist with the
Bighorn National Forest, said Wednesday morn-
ing that fire restrictions mean no campfires will
be allowed outside of developed recreation sites
with campfire rings. In addition, restrictions will
be placed on operating equipment such as chainsaws, welders and torches. Smoking on the forest
will also be restricted to areas cleared of brush
for a 3-foot radius, Douglas said on Wednesday
morning.
Additional engine crews are also being prepositioned on the forest, Douglas said, in order to
enhance firefighters’ initial attack capabilities in
the case of a new fire.

NWCCD in talks for economic recovery
BY MIKE DUNN
MIKE.DUNN@THESHERIDANPRESS.COM
SHERIDAN — The Northern Wyoming
Community College District is currently participating in ongoing discussions with other
regional, state and federal officials to provide
relief and solve economic problems facing
the state.
While the discussions will likely result in
grants for displaced energy-sector workers,
Sheridan College officials said that is only
the tip of the iceberg when it comes to reviving the economic climate in the state.
The coalition includes representatives from
seven different counties in northeastern
Wyoming, including individuals from local
economic development groups, the Wyoming
Business Council, U.S. Department of
Agriculture, the U.S. Economic Development
Administration, NWCCD, Eastern Wyoming
College and the Wyoming Department of
Workforce Services.
“I think it’s fantastic that you have these
organizations getting together to develop
plans to help dislocated workers get employment and to help industry by getting these
workers the skills they need to expand,” said
Dr. Susan Bigelow, NWCCD vice president

ment. Bigelow has been one of the representatives for NWCCD in these discussions.
The group was asked to put together a sole
regional narrative to provide solutions and
projects addressing economic issues in the
state. From the college’s perspective, Bigelow
said, the primary goal is to work with the
Wyoming Department of Workforce Services
to provide funds from the U.S. Department
of Labor for displaced workers in the energy
industry. The funding would pay for training
in other industries.
Fishing derby
to be held at
Rotary Park
Pond
BY KRISTIN MAGNUSSON
NEWS@THESHERIDANPRESS.COM
RANCHESTER — The Rotary
Park Pond in Ranchester is
alive with wildlife. Fish, large
and small, are visible from the
shore and dock; frogs hop into
the water as you walk past; and
even a turtle swims in to get a
closer look. Kids will get to take
all of that in when they partake
in a fishing derby from 8-10 a.m.
on Aug. 6.
According to Rotary Cub
member Robert Allen, the
Rotary Pond Fishing Derby has
been held annually for the past
18 years. Local children between
the ages of four and 13 come out
to fish and receive prizes. Fifty
children are allowed to participate, and usually about 30 or so
show up.
“About 20 years ago, the
fishing derby started during
Ranchester Days,” Allen
explained. “It went for about
three or four years, and then
stopped because Ranchester quit
having the festival.

Advocates seek more disclosure on fracking chemicals
BILLINGS (AP) — Landowners, environmentalists and health advocates petitioned
Montana regulators on Tuesday to require
companies to more fully divulge which
fracking chemicals they use to produce oil
and gas.
Dozens of chemicals, some of them
hazardous to human health and the environment, are used as part of the process
technically known as hydraulic fracturing,
in which millions of gallons of fluid are
pumped deep underground to release oil
and gas trapped in shale or other rock formations.
A 2011 state rule allows companies to
conceal from public scrutiny any chemicals
they consider to be trade secrets. Officials
can request the full ingredients list in the
event of a spill or release of the fluids. The
rule also allows medical professionals to
request the information for diagnosis or
emergency treatment because of chemical
exposure.
But critics say the trade-secrets exception
represents an unlawful loophole, violating
the public’s right to know about chemicals
that can contaminate groundwater and pollute the air.
The oil and gas industry is set to oppose
any rule change.
Tuesday’s legal petition, from a coalition
represented by the environmental law firm
Earthjustice, asks the Montana Board of Oil
and Gas Conservation to tighten its rules.
The coalition includes several property
owners, health advocates, the Montana
Environmental Information Center and
Natural Resources Defense Council.
Earthjustice attorney Katherine O’Brien
says companies should have to justify any
fracking ingredients withheld, as is done in
Wyoming. Also, disclosures should be made
before drilling starts instead of after it’s
completed, she said.
“It’s important for people who are living
and farming and ranching near fracking
operations to understand what chemicals
they are being exposed to right now. It
doesn’t necessarily take a spill to pose a
health risk,” O’Brien said. “There’s really
no reason Montana deserves less access
than their neighbors in Wyoming.”
Oil and gas board Administrator Jim
Halvorson said the 2011 rule was crafted to
conform with state and federal laws allowing companies to keep confidential proprietary information about what’s in their
fracking fluids.
for rulemaking and make a decision after
that’s been done.”
The matter is likely to come up at the
board’s Aug. 11 work meeting, Halvorson
added.
State law gives the board 60 days to either
reject the request or begin a new rule-making process.
Alan Olson, executive director of
the Montana Petroleum and a former
Republican state senator from Roundup,
said the public should not have access to
any company trade secrets. Even disclosing
such information to regulators would be
a concern, he said, because of Montana’s
strong open-records laws.
“There’s some concerns about the (oil and
Katherine O’Brien gas) board’s ability to keep a trade secret,”
Earthjustice attorney Olson said
He added that some fracking chemicals
once considered proprietary are now rou“The board felt that its proposed rule
tinely disclosed, because their patents have
was adequate at the time it was adoptexpired and third-party companies have
ed,” he said. “We’ll review the petition

‘There’s really no reason
Montana deserves less access than
their neighbors in Wyoming.’
Tribal official goes to trial over
contaminated water probe
HELENA, Mont. (AP) — The former
head of the Chippewa Cree Tribe’s water
resource department went on trial Monday
on charges that he lied to federal authorities investigating a contaminated drinking
water tank used by dozens of homes on the
Rocky Boy Indian Reservation.
Jonathan Jay Eagleman has pleaded not
guilty to making false statements to a federal agency and demanded a jury trial, which
got underway Monday in U.S. District
Court in Great Falls with jury selection and
opening arguments.
On Aug. 30, 2012, two workers for the
tribe’s water department found the hatch of
a water tank that feeds 35 homes had been
broken into, according to federal prosecutors. The workers found cow feces, wooden
boards and concrete had been thrown into
the water.
The operator of a public water system
that has been contaminated must immediately notify the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. The workers told their
boss, who told Eagleman, but the break-in
was not reported, prosecutors said.
The tank was shut down, but the water
was not purged and remained in the system
for 25 days. Only when a resident of the
reservation posted about the break-in and
contamination on Facebook on Sept. 22,
2012, did Eagleman decide to report it to the
EPA, prosecutors said.
Eagleman told EPA and public health officials that the break-in was discovered on
Sept. 24, and that workers had checked the
tank three days before and it was secure,
prosecutors said.
Test results from samples of the water
found it was positive for E. coli. It is
unclear whether anybody who drank the
water was sickened.
“Based on false information and omissions provided by Eagleman to the EPA,
possible impacts to human health were not
properly evaluated consistent with the time
frame the public was exposed to tainted
drinking water,” Assistant U.S. Attorney
Kris McLean wrote in a trial brief on the
case.

Judge: Reagan shooter can
leave hospital to live in Virginia
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
man who attempted to assassinate
President Ronald Reagan will be
allowed to leave a Washington mental
hospital and live full-time in Virginia,
a judge has ruled.
John Hinckley Jr. is ready to live
in the community, Judge Paul L.
Friedman ruled Wednesday, granting
him full time convalescent leave that shall begin
no sooner than Aug. 5.
Friedman’s ruling comes
more than 35 years after
the March 30, 1981, shooting outside a Washington
hotel in which Reagan and
Hinckley
three others were injured.
Doctors have said for many years
that the now 61-year-old Hinckley,
who was found not guilty by reason
of insanity in the shooting, is no
longer plagued by the mental illness
that drove him to shoot Reagan in an
effort to impress actress Jodie Foster.
Hinckley’s release from
Washington’s St. Elizabeths hospital has been more than a decade in
the making. In late 2003, the judge
allowed Hinckley to begin leaving the
hospital for day visits with his parents in the Washington area.
In 2006, Hinckley began visiting
his parents’ home in Williamsburg,
Virginia, for three-night stretches.
That time has increased over the
years so that for more than the last
year he has been allowed to spend 17
days a month at the home, which is
in a gated community and overlooks
a golf course. Reagan himself died in
2004 at the age of 93.
While outside the hospital, Hinckley
has had to comply with a series of
restrictions, and a number of those
will continue now that he will be
living full time in the community.
He will have to attend individual
and group therapy sessions and is
barred from talking to the media. He
can drive, but there are restrictions
on how far he can travel. The Secret
Service also periodically follows him.
Despite the restrictions, life in
Williamsburg will likely be busy for
Hinckley. According to court records
and testimony at a recent court hearing on the issue of his release, he has
spent time volunteering at a church
as well as a local mental hospital.
He has attended meetings for people
living with mental illness, talks at a
local art museum and concerts. His
hobbies include painting and playing the guitar and he has recently
developed an interest in photography.
He’s also indicated he’d like to get a
full-time job and at one point went to
Starbucks and Subway to talk about
applying.
“I don’t like flipping around the TV,
I want to do things,” a court document quoted him saying.
He also has said he wants to “fit in”
and be “a good citizen.”

Timothy Egan’s “Immortal
Irishman: The Irish Revolutionary
Who Became an American Hero”
finally worked itself up to the top of
the reading stack and it was quickly
devoured. Thomas Francis Meagher’s
life swept through three continents.
He was born to Irish privilege and
education and became a revolutionary
against the English rule, banished to
Tasmania. His fellow citizens either
starved to death during the Irish
famine or escaped to North America.
He escaped from the penal colony,
became active in New York politics
and at the onset of the Civil War,
helped organize the 69th regiment of
New York. Meagher was at the lead
of major battles, including Antietam
and Fredericksburg, and should have
been killed 10 times while facing withering Confederate fire as a general
on horseback. Meagher survived but
many of his contemporaries did not.
He became acting governor of frontier Montana and his death, likely a
murder, was never solved. It came
at the hands of Montana vigilantes,
essentially politicians who ruled with
a noose and threats.
Egan nimbly captures Meagher’s
personality — he was a celebrity
of the day, given to great oratory
skills, enhanced by the bravery of his
escape from Tasmania and the battlefield. Other historical questions are
addressed: Irish repression, American
slavery, the expansion of the West.
Egan’s the best non-fiction writer in
the country.

Brother-in-law Dan Bradley and his
bride from long ago, Chris, stayed the
week with us so they could visit family and attend a 40th class reunion of
Sheridan High School. I always enjoy
listening to reunion stories and observations. I’ve been to a few. At 10 years,
there’s an “edge” about being successful. At 20, former objects of envy and
sexual desire are no longer rendered
recognizable — for the most part. At
30, there’s talk of children’s accomplishments. At 40, there’s discussion
of surgeries and medical histories.
After that, it’s talk of obituaries and
survival and many classes pool together graduates in order to have a party.
Reunions are fun. Vanity and problematic classmates are deemed to a
friendlier history. You smile a lot,
either in amusement or reminiscence.
When the invite comes, go.

Trump campaign. Even winning the nomination failed to improve his mood or personality. Winning has always been Trump’s
endgame, so why wasn’t he happy?
By contrast, there’s no reason to imagine
that the first woman ever to be nominated
to the presidency will maintain a grim
expression as Trump did following his
nomination. He obviously made a decision
to forgo the victor’s grin and instead bear
the countenance of a general about to enter
war. Happy warrior isn’t in his repertoire.
Whatever one’s political persuasion,
objectively, the future belongs to the
party that reflects the nation it aspires to
lead. This would not be the party whose
platform, though not binding, seeks to
undo many of the rights — reproductive
choice and same-sex marriage — that most
Americans find acceptable.
The math simply doesn’t support a viable
Republican Party without a long period of
reconstruction following the Trump demolition. This is true if Trump wins or loses.

Golf fan arrested after touching Justin Timberlake
RENO, Nev. (AP) — A California man
was arrested for disorderly conduct
after Justin Timberlake said he got too
physical with him last weekend during
the American Century Celebrity Golf

NATIONAL OBITUARY |
Tim LaHaye, author of “Left Behind”
end-times novels, dies
FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Rev. Tim LaHaye, co-author of the “Left
Behind” series, a multimillion-selling literary
juggernaut that brought end-times prophecy into
mainstream bookstores, died Monday. He was 90.
LaHaye died in a San Diego, California, hospital,
days after having suffered a stroke, according to
his publicist Johnnie Moore.
Co-authored with Jerry B. Jenkins, the 16-volume “Left Behind” series of novels published
by Tyndale House Publishers sold more than 80
million copies worldwide, Moore said, and popularized a Bible interpretation that said born-again
Christians will be instantly taken to God in the
rapture, while those left behind on earth endure
seven years of tribulation.
LaHaye was a key figure in conservative political groups, encouraging the Rev. Jerry Falwell to
create the Moral Majority, forming the Council
for National Policy, a secretive strategy group
for prominent political and religious conservatives, and, along with his wife, Beverly, starting
Concerned Women for America in 1979, as an alternative to liberal feminist organizations.
He was also a prolific nonfiction writer, writing more than 60 additional books, including the
Christian sex manual “The Act of Marriage” and
“The Battle for the Mind,” whose denunciations of
secularism helped rouse the religious right.
Born in 1926, LaHaye had a hardscrabble
upbringing in Detroit, served in the Air Force at
the end of World War II and graduated from Bob
Jones University in Greenville, S.C., where he met
his wife.
He earned a midcareer doctorate at Western
Seminary in Portland, Ore., and joined the
Southern Baptist Convention.
After leading churches in South Carolina and
Minnesota, he moved to Southern California, and
for a quarter-century led a thriving congregation that eventually became Shadow Mountain
Community Church. After 1981, he devoted himself
to writing, promoting his view of Bible prophecy,
family life seminars and political activism.
Some fellow conservative Christians pushed
back against LaHaye’s end-times views, known as
premillennial dispensationalism, emphasizing that
the books were fictional and should not be read
as an exact theological interpretation of the Bible.
Still, his books strongly shaped evangelical views
of Jesus’ Second Coming and popularized the ideas
to the broader public. Jenkins called LaHaye a
“spiritual giant.”
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On July 27, 1996, terror
struck the Atlanta Olympics
as a pipe bomb exploded at
Centennial Olympic Park,
directly killing one person
and injuring 111. (Antigovernment extremist Eric
Rudolph later pleaded guilty
to the bombing, exonerating security guard Richard
Jewell, who had been wrongly
suspected.)
On this date:
In 1789, President George
Washington signed a measure
establishing the Department
of Foreign Affairs, forerunner
of the Department of State.
In 1866, Cyrus W. Field finished laying out the first successful underwater telegraph
cable between North America
and Europe (a previous cable
in 1858 burned out after only a
few weeks’ use).
In 1921, Canadian researcher Frederick Banting and
his assistant, Charles Best,
succeeded in isolating the hormone insulin at the University
of Toronto.
In 1946, American author,
poet and publisher Gertrude
Stein, 72, died in Neuilly-surSeine, France.
In 1953, the Korean War
armistice was signed at
Panmunjom, ending three
years of fighting.
In 1960, Vice President
Richard M. Nixon was nominated for president on the
first ballot at the Republican
national convention in
Chicago.
In 1967, President Lyndon
B. Johnson appointed the
Kerner Commission to assess
the causes of urban rioting,
the same day black militant H. Rap Brown said in
Washington that violence was
“as American as cherry pie.”
In 1974, the House
Judiciary Committee voted
27-11 to adopt the first of
three articles of impeachment
against President Richard
Nixon.
In 1976, Air Force veteran Ray Brennan became the
first person to die of so-called
“Legionnaire’s Disease” following an American Legion
convention in Philadelphia.
In 1980, on day 267 of the
Iranian hostage crisis, the
deposed Shah of Iran died at
a military hospital outside
Cairo, Egypt, at age 60.
In 1995, the Korean War
Veterans Memorial was
dedicated in Washington by
President Bill Clinton and
South Korean President Kim
Young-sam.
Ten years ago: Floyd
Landis’ stunning Tour de
France victory just four days
earlier was thrown into doubt
when he tested positive for
high levels of testosterone
during the race. (Landis was
stripped of his title for doping.)
Five years ago: A Russian
space official (Vitaly Davydov)
said that once the mammoth
International Space Station
was no longer needed, it would
be sent into the Pacific Ocean.
Julio Lugo scored from third
base on a blown umpire’s call
at the plate, giving the Atlanta
Braves a post-midnight 4-3
win in 19 innings over the
Pittsburgh Pirates. Ervin
Santana pitched the first solo
no-hitter for the Angels in
nearly 27 years, striking out
10 and leading Los Angeles
over Cleveland 3-1.
One year ago: President
Barack Obama, during a visit
to Ethiopia, unleashed a blistering and belittling rebuke of
Republican White House hopefuls, calling their attack on his
landmark nuclear deal with
Iran “ridiculous if it weren’t
so sad.” The Boy Scouts of
America ended its blanket
ban on gay adult leaders while
allowing church-sponsored
Scout units to maintain the
exclusion for religious reasons.

FIRES : Hatchery Fire continues to burn in rugged, steep terrain
FROM 1
According to fire officials, the
Arden Fire burning near Shell
Reservoir and Adelaide Lake
in the Bighorns has reached
65 percent containment at 544
acres. Two Hot Shot crews, one
initial attack crew, two engines
and one helicopter continue to
battle the lightning caused fire
that started July 19.
Officials said there is minimal
fire activity, but an area closure
remains in effect.
Firefighters continue to put
in hard work on containing the
Hatchery Fire, which is burning in rugged, steep terrain
seven miles east-northeast of
Ten Sleep. Officials said fire
activity is limited to isolated
areas of creeping and smoldering fire behavior within the
interior. The Hatchery Fire is
60 percent contained and has
burned 2,802 acres, with back
firing operations contributing
to the perimeter growth.
On Monday, the Bighorn
National Forest reduced the
restricted area around the fire.
Boulder Park Campground and
Deer Haven Lodge, including
the roads and facilities for the
Lodge, are open.
During the Hatchery Fire,
fixed wing aircraft flew a total
of 129.18 hours and dropped
68,347 gallons of retardant.

flight hours and dropped 100,666
gallons on the Hatchery Fire.
Firefighters came from as close
as Ten Sleep and as far away as
Pennsylvania and Oklahoma.
The maximum number of personnel on the fire totaled 301.
The Hatchery Fire perimeter
stretched a total of 10.5 miles.
Officials said they believe the
fire was caused by overheating
brakes.
US: Fighting in Syrian city yields trove of IS intelligence
BY ROBERT BURNS
AP NATIONAL SECURITY WRITER
WASHINGTON (AP) — A spokesman
for the U.S.-led military coalition fighting
the Islamic State group says an enormous
amount of digital information has been
obtained from IS locations in and around the
Syrian city of Manbij.
U.S.-backed rebels are locked in protracted
fights there for control of that city.
The spokesman, Col. Christopher Garver,
says the intelligence is on portable data storage devices such as thumb drives. He says it
amounts to more than four terabytes of digital information and sheds new light on how
the Islamic State has used Manbij as a “strategic hub” for welcoming, training, indoctrinating and dispatching foreign fighters.
Garver said it’s unclear how this trove of
intelligence will affect the war.
He spoke to reporters Wednesday at the
Pentagon in a telephone interview from
Baghdad.

As Fed ends
meeting,
few expect
much clarity
on next hike
WASHINGTON (AP) — With
consumers spending and employers hiring more freely, the U.S.
economy has fared better of late.
But when the Federal Reserve
ends its latest policy meeting
Wednesday, most analysts think
it will signal that it wants to
see further gains before raising
interest rates again.
The Fed is expected to issue a
statement that acknowledges the
strengthening economy without
providing much clarity about
when the next rate hike might
occur.
Still, some Fed-watchers say
the wait may not be much longer. In the eight weeks between
this week’s meeting and the
next in September, the Fed will
see a flurry of fresh economic
data, including two monthly
jobs reports. If the new figures
show sustained improvement,
September might be when the
Fed decides to resume the rate
increases it began in December.
“If we get decent economic news between now and
September, I think the odds are
good that the Fed will move,”
said David Jones, chief economist at DMJ Advisors. “It is still
a data-dependent story, but I
think the Fed will know enough
by then to move.”
Jones foresees two modest rate hikes this year, one
in September, the other in
December. And he said investors may not have to wait until
September to know what the Fed
is thinking. Jones suggested that
Chair Janet Yellen may use her
speech at the Federal Reserve’s
annual late-summer conference
in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to
put investors on notice of a coming rate hike.

Clinton campaign seeks to make most of Kaine’s Spanish
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — When
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine and Hillary Clinton
made their debut as the Democratic presidential ticket, he proudly declared, “Hillary
and I are soul mates in this struggle.”
It was a message he delivered to the Miami
crowd in Spanish.
In the days after Kaine’s selection as
Clinton’s running mate, much was made
of his time working with Roman Catholic
missionaries in Latin America as a young
law student. Fluent in Spanish, the former mayor of Richmond and governor of
Virginia moved easily between languages
when he spoke at that first campaign event.
But while some Latinos say there’s a practical value to Kaine’s skills, they add the
days are gone when that alone is enough to
win over Hispanic voters.
“Words are fleeting and actions are what
matter,” said Daniel Lopez, a 50-year-old
security guard at a Mexican market in Santa
Ana, California, who said he’s voting for
Clinton because of her strong work ethic —
not what languages she or her vice presidential pick may speak.
Latinos make up about 17 percent of the
nation’s population, and roughly half —
27.3 million — are eligible to vote in 2016.
According to the Pew Hispanic Center,
nearly 70 percent of Latinos say they speak
only English at home or indicate they speak
English “very well.”
It was no accident that Kaine was introduced at an event in Miami, home to one of
the nation’s largest Hispanic communities.
While he joined Clinton for a joint interview
with CBS’ “60 Minutes,” Kaine’s first solo
television interview was with “Noticias
Telemundo.”
Marc Campos, a veteran campaign consultant in Houston, said Kaine’s appearances
on Telemundo and its primary competitor,
Univision, will help the campaign reach
older Spanish-speaking Latinos who are
more likely to vote.
In cities such as Houston, local Spanishlanguage stations pull in ratings near their
top English-language competitors. Campos
said on such stations, Kaine could also reach
relatively new U.S. citizens — or people living in the country illegally, who cannot vote
but may be willing to volunteer.
University of California, Berkeley political
science professor Lisa García Bedolla said
Kaine’s use of Spanish calls attention to his
ability to connect on key issues that matter
to Latinos.
“He kept talking about fe, familia y
trabajo (faith, family and work). He was
very respectful and humble about what he
learned,” she said.
Kaine, who delivered the first speech on
the Senate floor entirely in Spanish in 2013,
is expected to help Clinton promote plans to
push for a comprehensive overhaul to the
nation’s immigration laws and connect with
families who are living in fear of deportation.
Beyond Florida, his language skills could
be an asset for Clinton in the battleground
states of Colorado, Nevada and Virginia.
In picking Kaine, Clinton bypassed two
Latinos on her short list: Secretary of
Housing and Urban Development Julián
Castro and Labor Secretary Tom Perez. That
drew sharp criticism from some Latino academics and activists.
“The superficial usage of Spanish by a
white politician to appeal to the Latino
vote, in addition to the Clinton campaign’s
decision not to pick a Latino like Julián
Castro for vice president, does reveal a long
history of the Democratic Party taking the
Latino community for granted,” said Jimmy
C. Patino Jr., a University of Minnesota
Chicano Studies professor.
DERBY : Children ages 4 to 13 can enjoy fishing derby, win prizes
FROM 1
“Two years later the
community center asked
me if I would get it started up again, so I have
been putting this on for
about 18 years now.”
When the fishing derby
first started, organizers entertained two age
groups. Children ages 3
to 7 years old came out in
the morning and then 8to 14-year-olds came out
in the afternoon. Today,
they have only one derby
for ages 4 to 13.
The community center in Dayton puts on
the derby and Allen
organizes it. He collects
the donations and gifts,
keeps track of the numbers and types of fish
in the pond, and helps
put signs up advertising
the derby. He has been
working with the town of
Ranchester to clean out
the algae and clear out
some of the brush along
the shore. The algae or
moss along the shore
makes it hard for kids to
cast out far enough.
The Wyoming Game
and Fish Department
stocks the pond with fish.
The sunfish population
was overpopulated, so
they added predators
such as bass and tiger
muskie to help with the
problem. Allen is afraid
that the predators did
their job too well because
there don’t seem to be
enough sunfish left in the
pond.
“I’m hoping that the
sunfish are still here
because the kids go nuts
over them,” Allen said.
“When there was an overabundance of them they
were fun to catch because
they would bite anything,
even a bare hook.”
The record number of
fish caught in the past

Rotary Park Pond in Ranchester is the home to a fishing derby in which kids come to fish, enjoy the morning and choose
gifts provided by local merchants and the towns of Dayton and Ranchester. The local Rotary Club is working to build a second dock across the pond from the one pictured above.
was about 1,100 in two
hours. When the derby
first started, the WGFD
required that each fish
be weighed and measured, which was pretty
time-consuming. Those
rules have become a bit
more relaxed over the
years, so they don’t have
to be weighed and measured any more. Allen
does keep track of the
top three largest fish and
who catches the most
fish.
The children take buckets with them to keep the
fish alive. Once Allen
counts each child’s fish
and identifies the types of
fish, they are returned to
the water.
In addition to the
opportunity to fish and
enjoy the morning, the
kids get to choose gifts to
take home.
“It’s like having
another Christmas for
the kids,” Allen smiled.
“When the kids sign up
for the derby they are
each given a number,
which is also put into
a jar. The numbers are
drawn and the child with
the winning number
can come up and choose
a gift. When the jar is
empty, the numbers are
put back in and drawn
again for more gifts.
We draw until the gifts
run out. Sometimes we
go through the drawing
three times, which means
that each child gets three
gifts.”
All of the funding for
the gifts is donated by
friends, the towns of
Ranchester and Dayton,
the community center
and by local merchants.
Either money or gifts are
given. The gifts include
fishing equipment, camping equipment and toys
such as dolls and toy cars
and trucks. Allen tries to
get two of everything so
there are plenty of gifts
to go around.
“It is a lot of work, but
if I can keep the kids out
of trouble for two hours,
it was well worth it,”
Allen said. “It would be
great if the kids would
write thank you notes
to the donors, thanking
them for providing the
gifts for this event. A
thank you goes a long
way.”
According to Allen,
the Rotary Club held a
meeting Monday, and
the members discussed
working on getting a
permanent bathroom set
up in the park. The cost
is estimated at about
$12,000 to $15,000. They
are also talking about
putting in another dock
across the pond from the
existing one. The existing
dock took about $30,000 to
build.
“Originally I think this
area was dug out and
used as a sand or gravel
pit,” Allen said. “Then
the Rotary got a hold of
the pond and the acreage
and made it into a nice
park. If we can get additional funding for the
dock and bathroom projects, it will be something
to look forward to in the
future.”
NWCCD : Developing more skilled workforce for future of Wyo.
FROM 1
According to the WDWS, Research and
Planning Division, Wyoming’s unemployment rate for the month of June was 5.7
percent — an increase of 1.5 percent from
the same month in the previous years.
Campbell County, a county hit hard by
layoffs in the energy sector, led the state
in unemployment with a 7.8 percent unemployment rate. Surrounding counties (many
of which are a part of the coalition) also
showed higher and increasing rates of
unemployment.
Sheridan County’s employment rate is at
4.5 percent.
“We can offer classes, but until someone
has money to pay for the class, they aren’t
taking them,” Bigelow said. “... If you are
a laid off coal miner, you are on severance,
then you anticipate going on unemploy-
ment and you have a family to take care
of. Having grant money to pay for training
then helps you to be able to support your
family, meet your obligations and have the
training paid for.”
Included in these grants is a program
called POWER Plus, which consists of $55
million of federal government funds to provide job training, job creation and economic
diversification to dependent economies
impacted by the decline of the coal market.
Many local students have used these funds
in the past, but the problem is that the state
quickly depletes funds that are available.
“Our next step will be to look for the
grants to help us fill some gaps in our capacity,” Bigelow said.
Attendance is expected to rise at NWCCD
colleges this year, which is partially due
to enrollment of workers laid off from the
energy industry.
“The very thing that is going to diversify the economy of the state is the education that we are providing,” said Dr. Paul
Young, president of the NWCCD at the May
2016 budget hearing.
Even if the prices of coal and natural
gas rebound, Bigelow said the programs
the coalition and the college are trying
to put together will pay dividends for
Wyoming’s economy. Not only could a more
skilled workforce be beneficial to existing
Wyoming businesses, but it could also
entice other companies to move to northeast
Wyoming. Bigelow added that these continued discussions could lead to other solutions for the region’s economic problems.
“This is a bigger picture of how to help
some of the businesses that are already here
recognize opportunities to expand so they
can employ some of those available workers,” Bigelow said.
Report:
Shooting
deaths of law
enforcement
spike in 2016
NEW ORLEANS (AP) —
Shooting deaths of law enforcement officers spiked 78 percent in
the first half of 2016 compared to
last year, including an alarming
increase in ambush-style assaults
like the ones that killed eight officers in Dallas and Baton Rouge,
according to a report released
Wednesday.
However, data from the National
Law Enforcement Officers
Memorial Fund shows that firearms-related deaths of officers in
the line of duty are still lower than
they were during previous decades
like the 1970s.
Thirty-two officers died in
firearms-related incidents so far
this year including 14 that were
ambush-style attacks, according to
the report. During the same period
last year, 18 officers were shot and
killed in the line of duty including three that were considered
ambush attacks.
“That’s a very alarming, shocking increase in the number of
officers who are being literally
assassinated because of the uniform they wear and the job that
they do,” said Craig W. Floyd, who
heads the organization.
The organization usually releases a mid-year report tracking incidents for the first six months but
decided to extend the period due
to the July attacks in Dallas and
Baton Rouge against police officers. So the report goes from the
beginning of January to July 20
and compares it to the same period
last year. On their website, the
organization also keeps a running
tally of officers who died in the
line of duty. Those figures through
July 26 show that 33 officers have
been shot and killed so far this
year.
The report comes at a time of
heightened tension between communities across the country and
police officers. Two police officers
and one sheriff’s deputy were shot
and killed during an ambush on
July 17 in Baton Rouge by a black
gunman who was later killed by
responding officers. In Dallas,
a black gunman opened fire on
police during a July 7 protest
against recent police shootings of
black suspects; the gunman killed
five officers before being killed by
authorities.
A total of 67 officers have died
in the line of duty so far in 2016,
according to the report. That figure also includes officers who died
in traffic accidents, fatal falls or
airplane crashes.
Man involved
in fatal crash is
acquitted of
manslaughter
GILLETTE (AP) — A Casper man
involved in a two-vehicle crash in
Gillette that killed his passenger
has been acquitted of vehicular
manslaughter and negligence.
The Gillette News Record reported Tuesday that Circuit Judge
Wendy Bartlett determined there
was not enough evidence that
Lynn Poppell was under the influence of a controlled substance to
convict him.
Investigators say Poppell was
headed south on Highway 50 when
his Jeep went off the road Feb.
2, 2015. He overcorrected, veered
across the highway and crashed
into an oncoming pickup.
A passenger in Poppell’s Jeep,
32-year-old Alfred Banda, of
Sheridan, died at the scene.
Witnesses said Poppell appeared
to be looking down while driving.
One test confirmed he had methamphetamines in his system, but
another determined he wasn’t
under the influence of drugs or
alcohol.

from $27.7 billion in 2013 to $51.3 billion in percent of the cost of catastrophic coverage
and taxpayers pay 20 percent. That would
give insurers more incentive to negotiate
lower prices with drug companies.
Separately, the Obama administration
and Democratic presidential candidate
Hillary Clinton want to give Medicare
the legal authority to directly negotiate
with the pharmaceutical companies.
Republican Donald Trump has also supported opening the door to negotiations,
although GOP congressional leaders do
not. Polls show that regardless of political
affiliation, Americans want government
action to curb drug costs.
Medicare’s prescription program “is
an important part of the health care of
many Americans, but has recently seen
an alarming trend in spending growth,”
Grassley wrote Medicare administrator
Andy Slavitt.
“Do you believe there is potential for
exploitation of the catastrophic benefit
as it is currently framed?” Grassley
asked.
Lawmakers who created the Medicare
prescription program in 2003 saw cat-
astrophic coverage as a way to protect
seniors with multiple chronic illnesses
from the cumulatively high costs of taking
many medications. The recent advent of
drugs that sell for $1,000 per pill is changing that. Now some patients can land in
the catastrophic benefit in short order.
An analysis of Medicare’s ten most pricey drugs finds that the catastrophic benefit
is picking up an increasing share of costs,
meaning more exposure for taxpayers.
In 2013, there were four medications
among the top ten that had 80 percent or
more of their total costs covered by catastrophic protection.
In 2015, seven of the top ten priciest
drugs had crossed that threshold, according to Connecture, a company that tracks
drug prices paid by health plans.
“It means that one drug alone is going to
kick someone into catastrophic coverage,”
said Jim Yocum, senior vice president of
the company.
Grassley, a member of the Senate committee that oversees Medicare, asked for
answers in a couple of weeks.

Obama returns to convention
stage to make case for Clinton
WASHINGTON (AP) —
President Barack Obama
acknowledged Wednesday
that his hopes for a new
tone in politics, embodied
in the rousing Democratic
convention speech he delivered 12 years ago, never
materialized. Still, he says
he remains undaunted.
In 2004, he was the
obscure Senate candidate
from Illinois whose words
catapulted him to the center
of American political consciousness.
On Wednesday night, he
steps on the convention
stage as the battle-hardened
president hoping his legacy won’t be eroded by the
outcome of the election to
replace him.
It’s hard to overstate
what Obama has at stake
as he implores voters to
elect Hillary Clinton. Take
Republican Donald Trump
at his word, and if elected,
he’d undo just about everything Obama has done, from
climate change and immigration to trade and foreign
relations.
Obama has cast Trump as
dangerous and unprepared.
In an interview aired hours
before his remarks, he said
Trump lacks “basic knowledge about the world” and
has shown no interest in
learning more about it.
Democrats should be “running scared’ about the real
political challenge Trump
poses, he said in an interview aired Wednesday on
NBC’s “Today” show.
Obama’s speech will also
be a moment to revisit his
political story and words
that captivated Democrats
in Boston and beyond. His
scolding of pundits who
carve up America into red
and blue states, and his
declaration that there is no
black or white America but
“we are one people” looks
largely aspirational after a
decade of increased political
polarization and months of
heighten racial tensions.
“I’m the first to admit
that when I spoke in 2004,
when I ran in 2008, my
hope, my expectation was
that we could lift up all
that common ground and
create a new way of doing
business in Washington
and a new political tenor, a
new political tone that was
more respectful and more
practical in trying to solve
problems,” he said. “And
that hasn’t happened. But it
doesn’t keep me from wanting to keep on trying.”

CHOCOLATE ZUCCHINI BROWNIES
Chrissy Teigen offers a variation on the Caprese salad
BY ELIZABETH KARMEL
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Caprese salad of fresh mozzarella,
basil and tomatoes is universally loved.
I personally make it all summer long
and although I mix up the tomatoes
based on what I can buy at the farmers
market, it is virtually the same every
time.
Since it is tomato season and we waited a long time for this moment, I looked
for a new take on a summer favorite
— and found it in “Cravings,” model
Chrissy Teigen’s cookbook that she
co-wrote with Gourmet magazine alumna Adeena Sussman.
Teigen adds a few new elements: She
uses burrata — fresh mozzarella with
a creamy center — and cuts the tomatoes in different shapes and sizes, some
slices, some wedges. She omits the traditional basil and adds arugula and delicious, crunchy prosciutto chips which
take this Caprese from ordinary good to
extraordinary great.
The prosciutto chips (she calls them
crisps) are easy to prepare and make
such a difference that I can’t believe that
O
I never thought of baking thin slices of
prosciutto into “chips.” You can substitute them in almost any recipe that calls
for bacon. Once the prosciutto bakes and
cools, it is crispy and crunchy, salty and
addictive.
You’ll find this a welcome addition to
an already popular summer recipe.
CAPRESE SALAD WITH CRISPY
PROSCIUTTO
Adapted from “Cravings: Recipes for All the
Food You Want to Eat,” by Chrissy Teigen
Start to finish: 20 minutes
Serves 6
4 cups baby arugula
1 (8-ounce) ball burrata or fresh mozzarella
cheese
2 pounds assorted ripe tomatoes cut in a
variety of shapes (wedges, slices, chunks,
etc.)
3 tablespoons best-quality olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1-2 teaspoons kosher salt
1?2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6-12 prosciutto crisps (recipe follows)
Scatter the arugula on a serving platter and
place the cheese in the center. Arrange the
tomatoes around the cheese.
Cut a small opening in the burrata/mozzarella
ball so you can see the center, and then drizzle
olive oil all around the platter.
Drizzle balsamic vinegar on the tomatoes and
arugula. Season the entire salad with the salt
and pepper and top with the prosciutto crisps.
PROSCIUTTO CRISPS
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet
with parchment paper.
Arrange the prosciutto in a single layer on the
baking sheet. Bake until wrinkled and slightly
shrunken, 11 to 13 minutes. (It will crisp as it
cools.) Cool, eat whole as a snack, or crumble
and use as a garnish for salads, eggs, or anything
that could use crispness and ham. (For me, that’s
everything.)

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded zucchini
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 cup white whole-wheat flour
3/4 cup chopped semisweet chocolate or chocolate
chips
2/3 cup toasted pecans, coarsely chopped, divided
(optional)
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch square
baking pan with foil, letting it overhang on the sides;
coat with cooking spray.
2. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low
heat. Remove from heat, add unsweetened chocolate
and stir until melted. Add sugar and salt; stir until well
combined. Stir in zucchini and vanilla. Add eggs, one at
a time, mixing after each addition. Fold in the flour until
almost incorporated. Fold in chopped chocolate (or
chips) and 1/2 cup pecans (if using) until just combined.
Transfer batter to the prepared pan, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle with remaining pecans (if using).
3. Bake until sides look dry and the middle is firm to
the touch, about 30 minutes. Let cool completely, then
lift out of the pan using the foil. Cut into 16 squares.
Serves 16.

“Hi Jill,
You asked readers if we find value in our HOA and is it
worth what we pay? My answer is yes! Our HOA has 470
homes and a large park, pond, playground, common areas,
walking trails and entryways that are maintained with our
$550 per year dues. I also really like having an organization that can enforce keeping lawns in reasonable shape –
no 12-inch high weeds, no cars parked overnight on streets
and no boats and trailers parked in view. I like living in a
neighborhood that showcases clean and neat homes – not
the detritus of some people’s lifestyle. I’m happy that my
HOA does not micromanage and penalize for the smallest of infractions. For example, lots of folks do have an
overnight guest who parks on the street. That does not get
penalized. But someone with teenagers and lots of cars
blocking streets for months on end would not be tolerated.
That’s my take on it. It was my first neighborhood with
an HOA and we’ve been here 18 years. Now that I’ve lived
with an HOA, I don’t think I would want a neighborhood
without one. I enjoy the education I get from your writings!”

My grandma chose the Cubs long

afternoon games were a godsend for a

She flew a Cubs flag in her yard, and

Sports are funny like that. They’re

Troopers win opener at state tourney
FROM STAFF REPORTS
SHERIDAN — It took a bit of a comeback, but the Sheridan Troopers advanced
past the first round of the state tournament with a 10-6 win over the Casper
Oilers Tuesday morning.
The Troopers opened the Wyoming AA
State Tournament in Jackson Hole against
a Casper team they’d already beaten five
times this season, but it took some solid
hitting late in the game to steal the win
and advance to the second round.
After jumping to a 2-0 lead in the
first inning, Casper took control over
Sheridan’s starting pitcher Blake Godwin,
who has been solid all season for the
Troopers.
But the Oilers found the gaps after a couple innings and took a 5-4 lead in the third.
The Troopers stole the momentum at the
plate, though, to take some pressure off
their starting pitcher. They secured a 9-6
lead in the sixth before bringing one more
across the plate to seal the deal.
The win advanced Sheridan to a
Wednesday matchup with the Gillette
Roughriders. Gillette — the top seed in
the Troopers’ conference — defeated
Rock Springs Archie Hay Post 24 14-2 in
Tuesday’s opening round.
Sheridan and Gillette split their regular
season series 2-2, the most recent matchup
going to the Roughriders in a 16-11 win
last week. The Troopers walked eight batters and hit four in the loss. Wednesday’s
second-round game is scheduled for 4 p.m.
The winner will advance to the state
semifinals Thursday, while the loser will
move on to a loser-out game Thursday
with the hopes of staying alive.
The AA state championship will be
played Friday and again Saturday if a second-game is necessary to crown a champion.

Rockies rough up
Tillman, beat Orioles 6-3
BY DAVID GINSBURG
AP SPORTS WRITER
BALTIMORE (AP) —
It didn’t matter to the
Colorado Rockies that Chris
Tillman was unbeatable at
Camden Yards, where the
Baltimore Orioles rarely
lose regardless of who’s on
the mound.
On Tuesday night, the
Rockies emphatically
spoiled Tillman’s bid to
become the first 15-game
winner in the majors.
Carlos Gonzalez and
Trevor Story had two RBIs
apiece in a four-run third
inning, and the Rockies
ended Baltimore’s five-game
winning streak with a 6-3
victory Tuesday night.
Tillman (14-3) gave up six
runs and nine hits in five
innings. The right-hander
retired six of the first seven
batters but needed 89 pitches to get 15 outs.
“We were patient,”
Gonzalez said. “We had
some really good at-bats
against him. We know what
kind of pitcher he is. He is
having a tremendous year,
especially here at his park.”
Tillman was 8-0 at home
this season, and Baltimore
was unbeaten in his 12
starts at Camden Yards.

Woodrow Wilson signed the
act creating the National

WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 2016
DEAR ABBY: After two
failed marriages, I married a
wonderful man whom I love
but am not in love with. He
recently had a seizure, after
which he was diagnosed with
moderate dementia.
All I see is a long, dark road
ahead. We are both senior
citizens with not a long time
left on this Earth. My health
is suffering because of this
Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen
Gates of the Arctic National
Park and Preserve in Alaska,
with only around 11,000 visitors annually.
Seems millions and millions of you know that getting into any park (even if
it’s just part of a city block)
is good for you. And science
backs you up. A multicenter
U.S.-Canada study found that
“knowing and experiencing
nature makes us healthier, happier people.” And a
University of Rochester study
found that being around
green spaces not only reduces stress and makes you feel
better, but makes you behave
better, too!
How much green time
do you need? Australian
researchers say 30 minutes
a week minimum is what
it takes to relax and reduce
your risk for high blood
pressure and depression. If
everyone did that, they say,
the prevalence of HBP would
decrease by 9 percent and
depression by 7 percent.
Our recommendation for
green-space health boosters:
Spend 30-60 minutes (with
a pedometer and a buddy)
walking, five times a week.
Head for 10,000 steps daily
-- outside, when weather
permits. (An after-dinner
walk with the family is
great!) Find a quiet spot
and meditate for 10 minutes
(instructions are at www.
doctoroz.com/videos/deepak-chopras-stress-free-meditation). You’ll avoid what’s
being called Nature Deficient
Disorder, which is afflicting
everyone from screen-bound
kids to housebound elders.
Pauline Phillips and Jeanne Phillips
situation. I am extremely
depressed, suffer from panic
attacks and have lost any
hope of happiness in the
future.
I am torn between my
responsibility to my husband and leaving to try to
find some sort of joy in my
life. If I stay, my mental
and physical health will be
ruined. If I leave, guilt will
destroy me. Is there a solution? -- OVERWHELMED IN
HOUSTON
DEAR OVERWHELMED:
Yes, and the first part of the
solution is to realize you are
NOT a weak sister -- as much
as you might think you are.
You took a vow to stand by
the man you married, and
now it’s time to honor it. He
may not be the love of your
life, but he is your friend.
Friends don’t cut and run
when the going gets tough.
Talk to a geriatrician
(M.D.) to find out what kind
of care your husband needs
now and will need in the
future. You should also learn
as much as you can about
what services for seniors
exist in your community.
He may eventually need an
assisted living facility, but
in the meantime, a home
caregiver may be able to help
him with personal grooming
and give you some time to
yourself. If he has children or
other family members, they
might be willing to pitch in
and help.
While a diagnosis of dementia is daunting, I urge you
to enjoy the time you have
with him now. He’s still the
person you cared for enough
to marry. He WILL be that
person for quite a while. You
may be a senior, but you’re
still vital and may have
many years ahead to enjoy
life. If you fulfill your role as
a supportive wife now, your
chances of finding happiness
when your husband’s journey is over will be greater.
A final thought: You’re
not alone. There is support
out there for you and your
husband. Reach out to the
Alzheimer’s Association (alz.
org; 800-272-3900) for information and local support and
resources.
DEAR ABBY: I have been
invited to a “gender reveal”
party. I have never heard
of such a thing. I mean,
REALLY?
In my day, a married
woman’s first child was welcomed with a baby shower.
Today, baby showers are
given for three, four, five
children of the same mother
whether she’s married or
not. Am I out of the loop on
this one? I anxiously await
your reply. -- NOT READY
FOR THIS
DEAR NOT READY:
Parents don’t know what
the sex of their child will
be until they get the results
of the first or second ultrasound. Some of them choose
to have the results presented
to them in an envelope and
given to a third person, to
be shared with family and
friends during a gender
reveal party that is sometimes held in place of a
baby shower. The results
of the ultrasound are then
announced either verbally
or, in some cases, by serving
attendees white or yellow
cupcakes with cream centers
that are either pink or blue.
Yes, it’s an excuse to have
a party, but why not celebrate? If the idea is a turnoff, no law says you must
attend.

collect unwanted bacon
fat. When it hardened, she
simply threw it in the trash.
The worst thing you could
have done back then, and
presently, is to pour it directly down the sink.
I have found a way to
eliminate both the danger of
spilling the hot grease into a
container and the unwanted
smell under the sink. After
you finish frying the bacon,
turn off the heat and lay
three sheets of paper towels in the pan. The paper
towels will soak up all the
grease. Wait a minute and
simply throw all the greasesoaked paper towels into
the garbage. Surprisingly,
the greasy paper towels cool
down quickly, so there is no
damage to your trash pail or
the plastic lining. -- Robert
D., via email
I agree -- do not ever throw
grease of any kind down the
sink. However, I would caution that you should always
let the grease cool before
adding the paper towels,
and NEVER pour hot grease
into anything. -- Heloise

Hints from Heloise
Dear Heloise: When
having a large
barbecue, try
this hint for
cooking CORN
ON THE COB.
It’s so easy
and keeps corn hot all day.
Boil a large (soup) pot of
water, shuck all the corn,
place the corn in a clean
cooler and pour the boiling
water over it. Now just close
the lid for 35-40 minutes.
Every time you take out a
piece of corn, make sure to
close the lid again to keep
the remaining corn hot.
-- Andy K. in Finksburg, Md.
This is a great way to
make large amounts of corn
without using up space on
the grill or on an inside
stovetop. -- Heloise

apple), my husband and I
discovered a great hint for
coring the slices. My husband was having difficulty
coring the individual slices,
and I suggested he use the
small doughnut cutter that
comes with a biscuit cutter.
The small, round cutter
worked perfectly on the
pineapple slices, and was
just the right size. He was
finished in no time, and it
was much easier than using
a paring knife. -- Jean D.,
Omaha, Neb.
BLENDER HINT
Dear Heloise: I just discovered a great cooking hint for
folks who are living alone. If
you need to pour hot items
into a blender, place the
blender pitcher in the sink

was making tomato bisque,
and I needed to puree the
mixture. I read your column

TAURUS (April 20-May
20): Freely spread extra
grains of salt when the
facts are peppered with
half-truths. Those you
are thrown in contact
with might not be totally
accurate. Check the facts
carefully, as it is possible to
make an error of judgment.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20): The news might not be
exactly what you wanted
to hear. But you may have
asked the wrong question at
the wrong time. Push aside
personal desires and doubts
for a few days and things
will change for the better.
CANCER (June 21-July
22): Scattering your energy
in too many directions can
be counterproductive. A
brief period of hurry and
flurry could deter you from
important tasks. Use your
imagination to promote
your ideas in public places.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Try
something new. Don’t be
afraid to color outside the
lines or to approach problems from a different angle.
A new acquaintance may
merely turn out to be a fair
weather friend but could
alter your viewpoints.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
Be on target by not going
off on a tangent. Convey the
appropriate message to a
loved one or make plans to
get certain jobs completed
with speed and accuracy.
Errors illuminate what
needs extra attention.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
Opposites attract but they
don’t always get along. You
may find an attractive item
that you simply must own.
Then you get it home and
find that it matches nothing else in your wardrobe.

BIRTHDAY GAL: Actress
Elizabeth Berkley was born
in Farmington Hills, Mich.,

birthday gal rose to fame
as Jessie Spano on “Saved
by the Bell” from 1989-1992.
She played recurring roles
on “CSI: Miami” and “The L
Word” and has appeared on
episodes of “New Girl” and
“Melissa & Joey.” On the
big screen, Berkley’s film
resume includes “Women

“Showgirls.”

Some relationships are like
this.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.
21): Problems rooted in the
past may rear their ugly
heads. Deal with them immediately. You may need
extra self-discipline to avoid
arguments and keep your
mind on work, but that’s
the way to achieve success.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21): Don’t expect
stability when you are
undergoing changes. You
might ride a roller coaster
of highs and lows with neither extreme lasting very
long. Visit exotic locations
or go out of your way to
meet someone new.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19): Dedication is a desirable trait. Put your energy
as well as brains to work
in ways that will improve
your reputation and earn
you recognition for a job
well done. Don’t waste time
gossiping on the phone.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18): People count on your
backing when faced with
calamity or crisis. You
might not be able to make
headway with a personal financial situation, but your
friends will certainly appreciate your stability and
dependability.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20): Put the ringtone on
mute. You may receive
more than your fair share
of robo-calls, special offers
and sales contacts. Don’t
let inconsequential interruptions disturb the work
environment or upset your
mood.
IF JULY 28 IS YOUR
BIRTHDAY: Your imagination could be stuck in
overdrive for the next five
to six weeks so you may let
an attraction or a crush fool
you into thinking it is the
real thing. Your judgment
is much better in October
when you can embrace
new opportunities and
can successfully enter into
new commitments, such
as a new romance, new job
or change of address. You
might receive a lucky break
in the form of a job opportunity or helpful new friend.
Your ability to attract wise
advisors is at a high point
in the fall, but in November
any new business agreement or financial decision
might entangle you in endless red tape or cause long
term hardships.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS |
Default: Failure to fulfill an obligation, especially the obligation to
make payments when due to a lender.
Encumbrance: A right attached to the property of another that may
lessen its value, such as a lien, mortgage, or easement.
Foreclosure: The legal process of terminating an owner’s interest

Public notices allow citizens to monitor their government and make sure that
it is working in their best interest. Independent newspapers assist in this cause
by carrying out their partnership with the people’s right to know through public
notices. By offering an independent and archived record of public notices,
newspapers foster a more trusting relationship between government and its
citizens.
Newspapers have the experience and expertise in publishing public notices and
have done so since the Revolutionary War. Today, they remain an established,
trustworthy and neutral source that ably transfers information between
government and the people.
Public notices are the lasting record of how the public’s resources are used and
are presented in the most efficient and effective means possible.

Students will occasionally ask me this
question: Why use
fourth-highest when
it sometimes helps
declarer instead of the
defenders?
It is true that all of
the defenders’ methods
can be analyzed by declarer, and he may benefit from the
“free” information. However, defense
is so difficult that the defenders just
have to accept those bad deals. With
no leading or signaling agreements,
many contracts would make that
could have been defeated. For example, in this deal, how should the defenders card to defeat three no-trump
after West leads his fourth-highest
spade seven?
At trick one, East must put his spade
jack onto the table, the bottom of
equivalent cards when playing third
hand high. (In general, assuming a defender can afford to do it, he plays the
top of touching honors -- except when
he is the third hand to play to a trick
and is going to put up the highest card
so far played -- he might even take the
trick.)
South wins with his spade king,
leads a club to dummy’s ace, and
returns a club. What should East discard?
It looks tempting to pitch the heart
queen, but that isn’t right. East applies the Rule of Eleven to the opening

lead. Seven from 11 is four. So, there
are four spades higher than the seven
in the dummy, his hand and declarer’s
hand combined, and he has seen them
all: dummy’s nine, his jack and queen,
and declarer’s king. So, West’s spade
suit is ready to run. But West doesn’t
know who has the spade queen. East
must clarify the position by discarding the aforementioned spade queen.

over 28 innings in his previous four
starts, but in this outing Tillman tied a
season high for runs allowed.
So what made this start so much different?
“I think the ball just fell where we
weren’t,” he said.
After Colorado loaded the bases with
one out in the third, Tillman retired
Nolan Arenado on a foul popup and was
within a strike of getting out of the jam
when Gonzalez lined a double into the
left-field corner. Story followed with a
two-run single for a 4-0 lead.
“We had the two big at-bats with Cargo
and Story. Both with two outs and two
strikes,” manager Walt Weiss said.
“Those two at-bats were crucial in the
game.”
Arenado picked up his 78th RBI with a
double in the fifth and came home on a
wild pitch.
Adam Jones hit his 18th homer for
Baltimore in the bottom half.
The Orioles still own baseball’s best
home record at 37-15, including 21-4 since
the beginning of June.
Chad Bettis (9-6) won his third straight
start, allowing two runs, four hits and
three walks in six innings. Colorado is
8-1 in his last nine outings.
“They have a lot of guys who can slug
it,” the right-hander said. “You just have
to try to work in and out effectively. If
you leave the ball up, stuff like the Jones’
home run happens.”
Rookie Carlos Estevez got three outs
for his ninth save.
The surging Rockies have won five of
six and are 8-4 since the All-Star break.
“I’ve been telling the club all year I felt
we were going to get better and better
as the year goes on,” Weiss said. “That
hasn’t been our history the last few
years.”
SKIDDING DAVIS
Orioles first baseman Chris Davis went
0 for 3 with two strikeouts and is 0 for 24
with four walks and one RBI since July
17.
“He’s going through a period where
he’s not — stating the obvious — doing
what he’s capable of,” manager Buck
Showalter said. “He’ll get it going.”
BAGGAGE CLAIM
Rockies rookie David Dahl finally
got his luggage Tuesday, one day after
making a cross-country journey to make
his major league debut. He went 1 for 4
Monday night while wearing a glove provided by Mark Reynolds, swinging a bat
donated by Daniel Descalso and running
in cleats loaned by Story. Dahl started
again Tuesday and went 1 for 4.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Rockies: RHP Justin Miller (oblique

QB: Season opener
on Sept. 8 in Denver
FROM B2
“This is the first time that I’ve seen a playbook like that, so I knew it was going to be
tough and I knew I was going to be behind,”
he said. “The biggest thing for me is just
staying confident in myself, keep my head
up, keep pushing through and keep grinding. It’ll come to you eventually.
“From a competition standpoint, you’re
not just going to say, ‘Yeah, I’ll take the back
seat.’ It’s my job as a rookie to push those
guys that are ahead of me however I can.”
Lynch and the rest of the rookie class
reported to camp Monday. The veterans,
including Sanchez, a six-year veteran, and
Siemian report Wednesday with the first
full-squad workout Thursday.
Lynch said getting all the snaps the past
two days was difficult from a conditioning
standpoint but “mentally getting those reps
is really important.”
All three QBs cut short their summer
vacations to prepare themselves for what
Kubiak has said will be a high-pressure test
to determine his starter when the Broncos
begin defense of their title against the
Panthers on Sept. 8 in Denver.
