Eagles sign three ex-AAF players to 1-year contracts
Eagles sign three ex-AAF players to 1-year contracts
The Philadelphia Eagles announced the signings Tuesday of three former Alliance of American Football players to one-year contracts.
Quarterback Luis Perez and wide receivers Charles Johnson and Greg Ward became available when the AAF ceased operations last week, just eight weeks into its inaugural season.
Perez, 24, passed for 1,461 yards (third in the AAF) with five touchdowns and six interceptions in eight games with the Birmingham Iron.
Johnson, 30, led the league in receptions (45) and receiving yards (687) and caught five touchdowns in eight games with the Orlando Apollos.
Ward, 23, caught 22 passes for 214 yards with the San Antonio Commanders.
Ward and Perez have never appeared in an NFL game, while Johnson had 60 catches for 834 yards and two touchdowns in 39 games with the Minnesota Vikings from 2014-16.

Gilbert outduels Brissett, Browns clip Colts
With both starting quarterbacks sitting out, Cleveland Browns backup Garrett Gilbert threw for 151 yards and two scores to outduel Jacoby Brissett in a 21-18 victory Saturday afternoon over the host Indianapolis Colts.
Gilbert, a standout in this spring's Alliance of American Football, completed 13 of 19 passes, including a 4-yard score to Jaelen Strong and a 6-yarder to D'Ernest Johnson. Baker Mayfield, Odell Beckham Jr. and the Browns' other starters did not play, after two productive joint-practice sessions with the Colts during the week. Beckham has yet to play in the preseason.
Brissett played three series, going 8 of 10 for 100 yards and a 12-yard touchdown to Eric Ebron. Deon Cain, a 2018 sixth-round pick who missed all of his rookie season with a torn ACL, had seven catches for 80 yards, both game highs.
Andrew Luck sat out for the Colts as he continues to work back from a left ankle injury, but he did warm up pregame, moving laterally through bag drills and throwing several passes.

Thomas fires 61, seizes 6-shot lead at BMW
Thomas fires 61, seizes 6-shot lead at BMW Thomas fires 61, seizes 6-shot lead at BMW
Justin Thomas tied the course record with an 11-under-par 61 to surge to a commanding lead of the BMW Championship in the third round Saturday at Medinah Country Club in Medinah, Ill.
Thomas moved to 21-under 195 through 54 holes, good for a six-shot lead going into Sunday's final round.
Tony Finau (who shot 68) and Patrick Cantlay (68) are tied for second place, followed by South Africa's Rory Sabbatini (67), who holds fourth alone at 14 under.
Thomas, 26, began the round with birdies on the first five holes. His lone blemish came with a bogey on the par-4 sixth, but he bounced back with a birdie at No. 8.
Thomas scorched the backside in 6 under, aided by a pair of eagles. At the par-5 10th, he hit a 259-yard approach to just three feet for a tap-in, then holed his 180-yard approach on the par-4 16th. He also used a chip-in for a birdie at the par-5 14th and rolled in a 6-footer for birdie at the par-3 17th.
Thomas entered the tournament — the second of three tournaments in the FedEx Cup Playoffs — in 15th place in the FedExCup standings.
If Thomas wins the BMW Championship, he'll move atop the standings.
Finau had an eagle on the fourth hole — holing out from 119 yards on the par-4 — and was 4 under for the round until a bogey at No. 9. He played the backside at 1 under.
Cantlay had his only bogey of the round on the 16th hole. He closed with a birdie on the final hole.
Spain's Jon Rahm (66) is alone in fifth place at 13 under. He had the fourth-best round of any golfer in the field, but the gap grew between him and Thomas.
Brandt Snedeker (67), Lucas Glover (69) and Canada's Corey Conners (69) share sixth place at 12 under.
Second-round leader Hideki Matsuyama of Japan shot 73, falling to a ninth-place tie at 11 under alongside Rickie Fowler, Kevin Kisner and Xander Schauffele.

Tiger keeps Tour Championship hopes alive with 67 at BMW Tiger keeps Tour Championship hopes alive with 67 at BMW
Tiger Woods kept his hopes of qualifying for next week's Tour Championship alive by shooting a 5-under-par 67 on Saturday during the third round of the BMW Championship in Medinah, Ill.
Woods finished the day at 7-under 209 through 54 holes at Medinah Country Club outside Chicago, tied for 31st after finishing Friday tied for 48th. He needs to place 11th or better to advance and defend his Tour Championship next week at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
"I figured I (was) going to have to do something in mid-60s for two straight days there," Woods said afterward. "Left myself pretty far behind after the first two rounds. At least, I've got a shot at it."
He sits four strokes back of four players who are tied for ninth.
The 43-year-old put together his first bogey-free round all season, birdieing the fourth and seventh holes on the front nine and Nos. 10, 14 and 16 on the back. Woods hit 12 of 18 greens and 10 of 14 fairways, needing just 27 putts to complete the round.
He had totaled seven bogeys and nine birdies through two rounds to start the week, scoring 71 in both.
"Basically, the only difference between today and the last couple of days, I was able to clean up the card," Woods said. "I didn't have any stupid mistakes where I made bogey from bad spots or from easy spots I converted a nice up-and-down on five. I did the little things that was able to keep the momentum going and made a couple putts here and there."
The score was Woods' lowest since the final round of the Memorial Tournament in early June and tied for his lowest since the second round of the WGC-Mexico Championship in February. The event is only his fourth since the Memorial, including a missed cut at The Open Championship and a withdrawal from The Northern Trust last week due to an oblique injury.
The injury wasn't enough to keep Woods out this week, and he said he felt considerably better during Saturday's round.
"It's just one of those things where some days I feel better than others, but also, then again, it's what I do with the golf club, too," he said. "Able to swing the club properly. Body feels better."

Flores: Fitzpatrick will 'probably' start Miami's third preseason game
Miami Dolphins coach Brian Flores said veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will "probably start" the team's third preseason game on Thursday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Flores made the announcement after Friday's 16-14 loss at Tampa Bay, when Josh Rosen got the start and completed 10 of 18 passes for 102 yards.
Flores has said he wants Miami's third preseason game to be a "dress rehearsal for what game No. 1's going to look like" in the regular season, according to Yahoo Sports.
If that's indeed the case, the 36-year-old Fitzpatrick appears to be on track to start the Sept. 8 opener against the Baltimore Ravens.
"I'm here," Fitzpatrick told the Miami Herald. "Whatever coach wants me to do. Whenever he wants to put me in or not put me in, I'm ready to play. Whatever he wants, I'm here for."
Fitzpatrick has started six season openers for four different NFL teams: 2011 and 2012 with the Buffalo Bills, 2014 with the Houston Texans, 2015 and 2016 with the New York Jets, and 2018 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Dolphins signed Fitzpatrick to a two-year, $11 million contract in March.
Miami acquired Rosen, 22, in a trade with the Arizona Cardinals in April.

Report: No charges for RB Elliott in Vegas incident
Authorities in Las Vegas have decided not to bring charges against Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott over a May 19 incident, according to TMZ Sports.
Security guard Kyle Johnson had pressed charges against Elliott over an incident at the Electric Daisy Carnival at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Elliott's camp accused Johnson of extortion in a statement released to the NFL Network after the charges were made.
TMZ has aired video footage of the incident in which Elliott is seen leaning against a security guard, who fell to the ground when the metal railing behind him toppled over. Elliott was handcuffed and briefly detained by Las Vegas police around 3 a.m. before being released.
The gossip site reports that police and prosecutors decided against bringing charges after reviewing the incident together, citing police documents.
The NFL announced on July 3 that Elliott will not be disciplined for the incident. Commissioner Roger Goodell determined there wasn't a violation of the personal conduct policy, the league said.
Johnson was displeased with the NFL's decision so he filed charges in mid-July.
Elliott has had personal conduct issues in the past, most notably receiving a six-game suspension in 2017 due to allegations of abuse made by a former girlfriend.
Elliott, who turned 24 on July 22, rushed for a league-leading 1,434 yards and six touchdowns in 15 games last season. He also caught three touchdown passes.

Report: Chargers' James to have surgery, miss 3 months
Los Angeles Chargers All-Pro safety Derwin James will have surgery on his right foot and be sidelined approximately three months, NFL Network reported Saturday.
James suffered a stress fracture in his fifth metatarsal during practice Thursday and was in a walking boot Friday.
The three-month timetable leaves open the possibility of James returning from Injured Reserve for the end of the regular season and the playoffs.
He recorded 105 total tackles, 3.5 sacks and three interceptions last season after being selected with the 17th overall pick of the 2018 NFL Draft.
The 23-year-old earned Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors and was the first rookie in franchise history to eclipse 100 tackles.
"His production, his intangibles, we're going to miss him a lot," head coach Anthony Lynn said Friday. "But we're a team. I think we have a good team, and we have guys that will step up, and we'll be fine."
James excelled in his final season at Florida State in 2017, collecting 84 tackles (5.5 for loss), two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown) and 11 pass breakups.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are honoring the memory of Darryl Drake, their late wide receivers coach, with a helmet decal.
The yellow decal with the initials "DD" will debut in Saturday night's preseason home game against the Kansas City Chiefs and will be worn throughout the 2019 campaign.
Drake, 62, passed away suddenly last Sunday, one day after reportedly complaining of chest pains.
Drake joined the Pittsburgh staff in 2018 following stints as a receivers coach with the Arizona Cardinals (2013-17) and Chicago Bears (2004-12).
"I only knew him for a year and a half, but I think in that year and a half he meant more to me than some people I've known my whole life," Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said, per the team website.

Belichick says he'll 'evaluate' WR Gordon
New England coach Bill Belichick made no commitment on Saturday as to the role wide receiver Josh Gordon will have when he returns to the team.
Gordon, the talented but troubled receiver whose career has been thrown off course by substance abuse issues, was reinstated from suspension on a conditional basis by the NFL on Friday.
"For the past eight months, Josh's situation has been entirely a league matter. When Josh returns to our program, we will evaluate the entire situation and do what we feel is best for Josh and the team," Belichick said in a statement released by the team on Saturday.
Gordon was suspended on Dec. 20 for violating the terms of his previous reinstatement under the NFL substance abuse policy. He will be able to rejoin the Patriots on Sunday and is eligible to play in the regular season.
After breaking into the NFL with the Cleveland Browns in 2012 and making the Pro Bowl after the 2013 season, Gordon missed the entire 2015 and 2016 seasons due to suspensions related to substance abuse.
Gordon played in five games in 2017 after being reinstated. He played one game for Cleveland last year before being traded to the Patriots in September.
In 12 games last season, Gordon caught 41 passes for 737 yards and four touchdowns.

Almost one year suffering a gruesome knee injury during a preseason game, Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Marqise Lee returned to practice Saturday.
The Jaguars removed the 27-year-old veteran from the physically unable to perform list.
Lee suffered a torn left ACL during the Jaguars' third preseason game on Aug. 25, 2018 against Atlanta. Falcons safety Damontae Kazee hit him low at full speed and was flagged for lowering his head.
Lee was the Jaguars' leading receiver in 2017, catching 56 passes for 702 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games. In his first four seasons, he had 171 receptions for 2,166 yards and eight scores.
Jacksonville coach Doug Marrone said last week that the team was preparing to start the regular season without Lee and injured left tackle Cam Robinson.
"I don't know if they're going to be ready for the season," Marrone said. "They're working hard, the trainers are working hard, everyone's working hard, but we just can't get them over the hump, so we've got to start preparing to play without them."

Josh McCown was lured out of retirement to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles.
McCown announced his retirement and joined ESPN as an NFL analyst, ending a 17-year career that spanned 10 teams. But he'll make it 11 when he officially signs with the Eagles, a team that can't seem to keep a backup healthy this preseason.
Nate Sudfeld suffered a broken wrist in the preseason opener, and his audition to be the No. 2 quarterback behind Carson Wentz was derailed by surgery. Sudfeld could be ready to return in mid-September, head coach Doug Pederson said.
No. 3 quarterback Cody Kessler was diagnosed with a concussion following a hit in last week's game.
Enter McCown, who turned 40 on July 4 and was last a starter in 2017.
Pederson did not directly answer questions posed last week about the Eagles' interest in Colin Kaepernick, but the move to McCown indicates there was likely no interest.

Reid kneels before preseason loss, rips Jay-Z deal again
Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid kneeled in silent protest before a 27-14 preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills on Friday night.
Afterward, he took another shot at the partnership between the NFL and hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, who said during an introductory press conference this week "I think we're past kneeling … I think it's time for action."
"For one, when has Jay-Z ever taken a knee to come out and tell us that we're past kneeling?" said Reid, per ESPN. "Yes, he's done a lot of great work, a lot of great social justice work. But for you to get paid to go into an NFL press conference and say that we're past kneeling? Again, asinine. Players Coalition 2.0, he got paid to take the bullets that he's taking now because we're not having it."
Reid, who joined the Panthers three weeks into the 2018 season, kneeled before every game last year, although no Panthers teammates joined him.
According to the Charlotte Observer, Reid's reason for kneeling is to "protest racial inequality and social injustice in America."
Reid is close friends with former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick from their days as teammates with the 49ers. Kaepernick is well known for his protests during the anthem. Both players settled a collusion lawsuit with the NFL last year.
"Jay-Z made a money move. He's capitalized on this situation. Nobody to my knowledge talked about social justice before Colin started protesting," said Reid. "That was not a topic of the NFL off the field. For Jay-Z to come in and partner to address social justice, do it behind Colin's back, get paid to do it … I don't have words."
Reid also suggested the NFL is using Jay-Z as cover for Kaepernick still not having an NFL job.
"The (injustice) that's happened to Colin, they get to say, 'Look, we care about social justice, we care about the black community because we're with Jay-Z,'" said Reid.
"Jay-Z is doing the work for them. We all know that it's unjust that Colin isn't in an NFL locker room, the way he lost his job. But they get to pretend they care about social justice."
Reid, 27, ended up starting all 13 games he was in uniform for the Panthers last season. He was sixth on the team with 71 tackles with one sack and one interception. In six NFL seasons, five with the 49ers, the former No. 18 overall selection in the 2013 draft has 398 career tackles and 11 interceptions.

Report: Bucs GM Licht signed 5-year extension
Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht received a five-year contract extension earlier this year, according to the Tampa Bay Times.
The deal came just days after he lured Bruce Arians out of retirement to coach the team.
Licht is now under contract through 2023, which coincides with Arians' contract with the team.
Just a year ago, Licht had been rumored to be on the hot seat after the team missed the playoffs for the 10th consecutive season.
The ensuing 5-11 season led to the firing of coach Dirk Koetter, but Arians reportedly insisted on Licht staying in the job before signing on.
Licht, 48, is in his sixth season as the GM after stints in the front offices of the Arizona Cardinals, New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles. His 2015 draft class produced starters with the first four picks (QB Jameis Winston, OT Donovan Smith, G Ali Marpet, LB Kwon Alexander), but he also was responsible for trading up in the second round in 2016 to take kicker Roberto Aguayo, who didn't make it out of his second training camp with the team.
Licht used his top pick this year on inside linebacker Devin White out of LSU. He also signed defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh as a free agent this offseason after allowing DT Gerald McCoy to walk away.
If Licht serves the duration of his contract, he'll become the longest-tenured GM in club history.

Matsuyama grabs BMW lead with course-record 63
Japan's Hideki Matsuyama grabbed a one-shot lead at the BMW Championship by setting a course record with a 9-under-par 63 at Medinah Country Club outside of Chicago on Friday.
Scoring conditions weren't quite as favorable on Medinah's No. 3 course as they were when Justin Thomas and Jason Kokrak tied the course record with 65s on Thursday, but that didn't slow Matsuyama, who sank seven putts outside of 10 feet in carding nine birdies.
He holds a one-shot lead at 12-under 132 over Tony Finau (66 on Friday) and Patrick Cantlay (67). Thomas is another shot back at 10 under, with a half-dozen players another shot off the pace: Lucas Glover, Chez Reavie, Xander Schauffele, Canada's Adam Hadwin and Corey Conners and Slovakia's Rory Sabbatini.
World No. 1 Brooks Koepka managed only a 1-under 71 on Friday and is seven shots back in a tied for 25th at 5 under. However, he is still projected to hold the No. 1 spots in the FedEx Cup rankings entering next week's Tour Championship in Atlanta, where the top-seeded player will hold a two-shot advantage and begin the tournament at 10 under.
Patrick Reed, who won last week's The Northern Trust, is also at 5 under and projected to fall three spots to No. 5, with Matsuyama projected to vault to No. 2, followed by Cantlay and Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy, who is tied for 11th at 8 under at the BMW.
Tiger Woods saw a promising round derailed by a pair of late bogeys. He shot a second consecutive 71 and is tied for 48th at 2 under. Likely needing to finish 11th or better to qualify for East Lake and defend his title at the Tour Championship, Woods is currently projected to drop seven more spots to No. 45.
Other big names who currently sit outside of the top 30, the cutoff to qualify for East Lake, include Jordan Spieth (No. 48), Phil Mickelson (No. 51) and Australia's Jason Day (No. 55). Reigning FedEx Cup champion Justin Rose of England is tied for 40th at 3 under and is projected to drop to 15th.
Matsuyama birdied his first hole of the day en route to his lowest round of the year. He made the turn in 5-under 36, then poured in four more birdies on the back nine.
"It seemed like every time I had a birdie chance today that I made the putt," Matsuyama told the Golf Channel through his interpreter. "You add it up, and that's what I got."
Matsuyama has fallen to No. 32 in the world rankings and is without a victory since 2017, when he ended the year No. 5, but he has posted a third and four other top-10 finishes in 20 events this year while missing only two cuts.
Cantlay has been going the other direction, breaking into the world's top 10 for the first time in his career with a victory at the Memorial following ties for third at the PGA Championship and RBC Heritage and a tie for ninth at the Masters.
He had five birdies on a bogey-free card Friday, including salvaging par after driving it into the water on the par-4 15th hole.
"I played really solid today," Cantlay said. "I don't think you can play your way perfect around this place. Eventually, you will have to get up and down, just because it's long and if you get out of position you need to leave yourself fat side."
Finau, who is searching for his second PGA Tour victory, also had a bogey-free card that included four birdies over a five-hole stretch on the front nine.
"I mean, I feel like a win is around the corner. I felt that way all season," Finau said, per Golfweek. "Coming off the Ryder Cup, I feel like I got some great experience there. Had a couple good looks at majors this year and haven't got it done, but one of these times I know it's going to be my turn. And hopefully that's Sunday."
Finau is also currently projected to move from 10th to No. 8 in the Presidents Cup standings, bumping Bryson DeChambeau to No. 9. The top eight following this week will automatically qualify for the United States team captained by Tiger Woods.
Woods also will have four captain's picks.

Tiger's charge fizzles in second 71 at BMW
Tiger Woods was unable to keep a mid-round charge going Friday and will have to rally over the weekend at the BMW Championship in order to qualify for next week's Tour Championship.
Woods traded a pair of birdies and bogeys over his first nine holes at Medinah Country Club outside of Chicago to make the turn in even par for the second round. He then reeled off three birdies over the next six holes and was in prime position in the fairway on the par-4 16th hole.
However, Woods left his approach shot in the bunker and was unable to get up and down to save par. He then bogeyed the 17th hole to fall back to 1-under for the day and went on to card his second consecutive 1-under round of 71.
"Left quite a few shots out there," Woods told reporters after the round, adding that he was unable to capitalize on better ball striking than his first round.
At 2-under par entering the weekend, Woods is well off the pace entering the weekend and needs to finish in 11th place or better to advance and defend his Tour Championship. His inconsistent round on Friday included five birdies and four bogeys while hitting 11 of 14 fairways and 13 of 18 greens in regulation.
The telling statistic was successfully scrambling in just one of five attempts while also needing 30 putts to get around Medinah's No. 3 course.
Woods has been unable to capitalize on a course softened by heavy rains of late. Meanwhile, Japan's Hideki Matsuyama set a course record of 8-under 63 playing just a few groups behind Woods.
Woods said he thinks it will take "something in the mid-60s" to give himself an opportunity to compete with the top 30 players in the FedEx Cup standings at East Lake in Atlanta next week.

NFL conditionally reinstates Patriots WR Gordon
Troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon was reinstated on a conditional basis by the NFL, the league announced on Friday.
Gordon will be able to rejoin the New England Patriots on Sunday and is eligible to play in the regular season.
Gordon was suspended on Dec. 20 for violating the terms of his previous reinstatement under the NFL substance abuse policy.
"We are all rooting for Josh to succeed, both personally and professionally," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. "Everyone shares in that hope and will continue to support him to every extent possible. But as Josh acknowledged, ultimately his success is up to him."
The NFL said that Gordon won't play in New England's Aug. 22 preseason game against the Carolina Panthers because he hasn't had "sufficient conditioning and practice."
After breaking into the NFL with the Cleveland Browns in 2012 and making the Pro Bowl after the 2013 season, Gordon missed the entire 2015 and 2016 seasons due to suspensions related to substance abuse.
Gordon played in five games in 2017 after being reinstated. He played one game for Cleveland last year before being traded to the Patriots in September.
In 12 games last season, Gordon caught 41 passes for 737 yards and four touchdowns.
Gordon has played in just 52 NFL games while battling substance-abuse issues. He has 220 receptions for 3,826 yards and 19 touchdowns.

Smith registered 61 tackles, including eight for loss and 3.5 sacks, and a forced fumble in 12 games during his final season with Vanderbilt. He collected six sacks during his collegiate career and finished with 92 tackles in 40 games.
Folston's stint with the Titans was a short one.
The 23-year-old, who signed with Tennessee on Monday, was undrafted out of Pittsburgh in May.
Folston recorded 47 total tackles and 1.5 sacks in 43 career games with the Panthers.

I know you are asking today, "How long will it take?"….
I come to say to you this afternoon, however difficult the moment, however frustrating the hour, it will not be long, because truth crushed to earth will rise again.
How long? Not long, because no lie can live forever.
How long? Not long, because you shall reap what you sow….
How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice."
—Dr. Martin Luther King, on the steps of the Alabama State Capitol,
March 25, 1965
Barack Obama put himself on the right side of history Wednesday. By supporting the right to same-sex marriage, he did what the best leaders do: He tugged on that arc of history to help it bend towards justice.
The media and the left naturally are filled with often cynical views of the president's motives.
His statement is dismissed as a political calculation, forced by the need to raise funds from Hollywood and Silicon Valley, and the desire to rouse the young. It's decried as too little, with the president leaving states in control where 30 have enacted bans on gay marriage. It's criticized as too late, coming a day after North Carolina just passed a constitutional amendment with the ban, not before.
But much of this reflects the natural tension between politicians and movements. Obama is a politician, not a saint (notwithstanding my doctor's recent effusion that he "walks on water"). Movements press for justice; good politicians calculate how to get there.
Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was scorned by abolitionists for only applying to the states in rebellion, offering freedom to slaves where Lincoln had no authority, not where he did. The proclamation didn't outlaw slavery nor make the freed slaves citizens. It was a calculated wartime measure.
And it was an historic act of leadership. A genuine leader, Dr. King reminded us, is not a "searcher of consensus but a molder of consensus." While views on gay rights have been moving rapidly, gay marriage is an issue that stirs passion and division. Every state that has considered a referendum banning gay marriage has passed it. The president's statement will help mold a new consensus.
The Political Effect
What is the political impact? Commentators suggest it may rouse young voters who overwhelmingly support marriage equality. It surely will open the pockets of gay donors, no small matter.
But the act is likely to cost more than it helps. There is deep opposition to gay marriage among African Americans, and in the African-American church. Blacks will still vote overwhelmingly for the president, but this will surely reduce turnout among newly conflicted voters. Similarly, Latinos, overwhelmingly Catholic, will not rush to vote for Mitt Romney, but many more will find themselves conflicted by this act.
The zealous right, needless to say, is already mobilized to oust the president, but this will surely rouse their fury even more. Obama wasn't going to win their votes anyway, but the biggest effect is likely to register among independent voters. These are, for the most part, not the rational, pragmatic, free thinking voters depicted by the chattering classes. They are low-information, uninvolved voters who pay little attention to politics. They tend to lean toward one party or another, and turn out when that party's base is excited. There is no question this act will excite the Christian right's base—and their passion will pull more of their "independents" to the polls.
Perhaps the largest long-term potential effect, however, could be on the Democratic coalition itself. In 2008, Obama began to forge a new coalition for Democrats—the "rising American electorate" composed of the young, minorities, single women and"professionals"—highly educated, affluent, socially liberal suburbanites. Blue-collar white workers—the traditional base of the party—were largely viewed as hopeless. The president needed only to capture about one-third of their vote, and labor union households might produce a significant portion of that.
The president's bold statement on gay marriage combined with the faltering "recovery" and the president's often incoherent economic message will surely continue to distance blue-collar white workers from the Democratic coalition.
Contrast the gay marriage statement with the presidential campaign's $20 million ad buy that tries to sell the jobs growth we've got as evidence we're on the way back. Twenty-two million people are still in need of full-time work. Median wages have continued to fall since the "recovery" began. Declining home prices are driving more families underwater. Most working people don't believe the recovery has begun—because it hasn't for them. And two-thirds of voters think the country is on the wrong track. The president is not only challenging the social conservatism of blue collar voters, he's off tune on their economic concerns.
Blue collar, white male workers have voted majority Republican since Reagan. But a Democratic coalition that views them as vestigial is a jerry-built contraption unlikely to run well. It will be socially liberal, but economically incoherent. It will be timid on taxes and spending, and corporate on trade. It will be hesitant in arguing the case for working people, at a time of growing economic distress. It will follow the tradition not of Roosevelt and Truman, but of Carter and Dukakis. And as Democrats learned in 2010, single women—the most economically vulnerable voters—will be difficult to turn out and win big without a populist economic message that speaks to them.
Personally, I salute President Obama for speaking out for equality. This was an act of courage, no matter what the calculations. But this act makes it more important for the president to champion a big argument on jobs, and drive a populist message about the need to take on the entrenched interests and change direction. He needs to prosecute Wall Street's crimes, not cover for them. He needs to be the defender of Social Security and Medicare and not the advocate of a "grand bargain." He needs to champion a make-it-in-America manufacturing strategy, not peddle more corporate trade pacts.
He has to make it clear that he knows this economy is not working for working people—and that in contrast to Mitt Romney's failed recycled trickle-down tripe, he will fight for a new course to rebuild the middle class and revive the American dream. Without that, he could well win the young and the liberal, the professionals, blacks and Latinos, and still lose the election.

NEW YORK, July 30 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama told a campaign rally in New York Monday "if the election were held today, I think it would be close but I think we'd win."
As he routinely does on the campaign trail, the president acknowledged "the economy is still rough enough for enough people that this is going to be a close election."
"I'm confident that we are running a good campaign and will continue to run a good campaign," he said. "But we are being outspent substantially by the other side, and the super PACs are engaging in an experience we have not seen in America democracy for quite some time. They are spending like nobody's business, mostly on negative ads. And we're going to have to continue to compete. We don't anticipate that we're going to match them dollar for dollar -- we don't need to. But we are going to have to make sure that we can get our message out effectively."
Obama told the crowd that because they are in New York, which is not a battleground state in the presidential election, "you're not completely subjected to" the kind of negative advertising that voters in some other states are seeing. However, he said "when people start saying how terrible it is I just have to remind them that take a look at what (Thomas) Jefferson and (John) Adams had to say about each other, and democracy has always been pretty rough and pretty messy."
"There is going to be, though, as the summer winds down and we get into the fall, the need for voters in these swing states to know not just what they're voting against but also what they're voting for," the president said. "And so we'll be spending a lot of time talking about the specific agenda that I intend to pursue in the second term -- which I think will make sure that this economy is going full guns.
"So (the) upshot is if the election were held today, I think it would be close but I think we'd win," he said. "And we now have 99 days left. If I can say that every single day for the next 99 days, then we will be able to embark on the next phase of this journey."

Kosovo Serb spokesman: Ceku should be standing trial, not being received with honors in the capital of any civilized democracy.
WASHINGTON, June 19, 2006 The American Council for Kosovo protests the official visit to Washington, DC, of Agim Ceku, an indicted war criminal and former commander of the jihad terrorist organization, the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army. According to the Associated Press, Mr. Ceku is scheduled to meet today with U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and with officials at the White House, before proceeding to New York for a United Nations Security Council meeting on the future of the Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija. Mr. Ceku is styled Prime Minister of the local institutions operating under the authority of the United Nations, which has administered the Serbian province since 1999.
In a statement issued today, Rada Trajkovic of the Serbian National Council of Kosovo and Metohija said: Speaking on behalf of a community that has been the victim of outrages committed by jihad terrorists under the command of Agim Ceku, we, the Christian Serbs of Kosovo and Metohija, fail to see how officially receiving such a person in Washington is consistent with Americas professed war on terror or with an honest effort to reach a just and equitable settlement in our province. Agim Ceku is an indicted war criminal in Serbia for crimes committed in Kosovo and Metohija, not even accounting for his previous crimes in Krajina. He should be standing as a defendant before a court of law, not being received with honors in the capital of any civilized democracy. The Serbian National Council of Kosovo and Metohija is an officially registered non-governmental organization representing both Christian Serbs still living in Kosovo and the more than 250,000 that have been driven from the province by Muslim Albanian violence.
According to the 2002 Serbian indictment for genocide and other grievous offenses, Mr. Ceku bears command responsibility for the murders by KLA terrorists of 669 Serbs and 18 members of other ethnic groups, 518 counts of inflicting serious bodily harm (including torture) and wounding, and 584 counts of abduction, many of the victims of which are presumed dead. Mr. Ceku was named military commander of the KLA in May 1999. The following month, after the end of hostilities between Serbia and NATO forces, KLA terrorists under Mr. Cekus command intensified their attacks on civilian Christian Serbs, driving two-thirds of them from the province, as well as against Roma (Gypsies), Croats, Jews, Ashkalis, Gorani, and other non-Muslim or non-Albanians in Kosovo. Over 150 Christian monasteries have been demolished or desecrated.
The crimes of jihad terrorism in Kosovo against Christian Serbs, as well as against holy churches continue without interruption until the present day. Even those churches that have allegedly been reconstructed with the help of the European Council, again have been desecrated and are being destroyed over again, said Bishop Artemije of Raska and Prizren, the spiritual leader of Kosovos Christian Serbs. This very day we have received the news that the Church of the Nativity of our Most Holy Lady Theotokos in Obilic has been the latest victim, since four crosses have been removed, along with part of the church roofs lead cover.
Among the characteristic jihad terror practices of the KLA is the beheading of victims, as seen in other countries with active jihad terror movements, such as Iraq, Indonesia, Israel, and Pakistan (American reporter Daniel Pearl), India (Kashmir), and Russia (Chechnya). (For photographs of uniformed KLA terrorists whose identities are known but who have never been brought to justice with heads of their Christian Serb victims, see http://www.kosovo.net/kladecapit.pdf. WARNING: EXTREMELY GRAPHIC AND DISTURBING IMAGES. For an account of the torture and beheading of a Christian Serbian Orthodox priest, Hieromonk Hariton (Lukic), in 1999, soon after the beginning of the international administration in Kosovo, see http://www.decani.org/hariton.html ; Fr. Haritons head has not been found.) The jihad in Kosovo officially was launched in 1995 at a meeting in Tirana, Albania, between Osama bin Laden and Mr. Cekus KLA accomplices Ramush Haradinaj and Hashim Thaci.
Prior to his service with the KLA, Mr. Ceku served in the Croatian army. He presided over the 1995 Operation Storm, which drove virtually the entire Serbian population from the Krajina region in Croatia and killed several thousand Serbian civilians. Earlier, in September 1993, he became notorious for atrocities committed against Krajina Serb civilians, as witnessed by Canadian soldiers serving with the U.N.: As a colonel in the Croatian army, Ceku commanded the notorious 1993 operation in what is known as the Medak Pocket. It was here that the men of the 2nd Battalion of Princess Patricias Canadian Light Infantry came face to face with the savagery of which Ceku was capable. Over 200 Serbian inhabitants of the Medak Pocket were slaughtered in a grotesque manner (the bodies of female rape victims were found after being burned alive). Our traumatized troops who buried the grisly remains were encouraged to collect evidence and were assured that the perpetrators would be brought to justice. . . . Hopefully, Canada at least will respect the eyewitness testimony of our own peacekeepers and finally insist that Ceku face the same justice that was demanded of Slobodan Milosevic. Presenting the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion of Princess Patricias Canadian Light Infantry with a belated Governor Generals unit citation for the Medak Pocket battle will remain a hollow gesture until Ceku is held responsible for his atrocities. Scott Taylor, Ceku must face justice, Esprit de Corps military magazine (Canada), March 27, 2006, http://www.espritdecorps.ca/Ceku%20must%20face%20justice.htm).
The American Council for Kosovo (www.savekosovo.org) is a U.S. nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting a better American understanding of the Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija and of the critical American stake in the provinces future. The Councils mission is to make accurate information and analysis about Kosovo available to officials of the Executive and Legislative branches of the U.S. Government; to think tanks, media, NGOs, religious and advocacy organizations; and to the general public. In particular, the Councils educational activities will generate a heightened American awareness that an independent Kosovo forcibly and illegally detached from Serbia, as is now being contemplated by the international community would be harmful to U.S. national interests and to European and global security. The American Council for Kosovo is an activity of Venable LLP and Global Strategic Communications Group, which are registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act as agents for the Serbian National Council of Kosovo and Metohija. Additional information with respect to this matter is on file with the Foreign Agents Registration Unit of the Department of Justice in Washington, DC.

More students in the Lancaster County School District passed both sections of the exit exam in 2007 than in the year before, according to data the state Department of Education released this month.
Public high school students must pass the English language arts and math sections of the high school assessment program to meet South Carolina's exit examination requirement for a diploma.
The test is given to students during their second year in high school. Students who don't pass on the first try have additional chances to retake the section they didn't pass.

Nynaeve could sense a storm coming, yet her eyes could see no sign of the clouds that would precede such a storm. This had been happening more and more recently, as she learnt how to use the One Power from the Aes Sedai who were visiting. Arguments had been breaking out between many of those around, concerned at the difficulty in finding those who no doubt meant harm.
She herself had some suspicions, but others didn't seem to be paying much attention to her thoughts. She was worried for the Two Rivers folk. Perrin had already disappeared, and she was concerned for the others too. The Amyrlin had called together everyone once again to discuss what to do next. As she entered the crowded sitting room, discussions were already in full flow.
"I know who are Darkfriends. It's the only people it could be," one man said. "It's you, and you," he continued stabbing his finger in the direction of kalira and bessie. "I obviously am not one, and the only way it makes sense is if you are."
"Fool," bessie haughtily responded, "the Dark Lord's minions don't make sense at the best of times. How can you know what he is thinking?The only way you could know for sure is if you are one of his followers."
The arguments continued for the best space of an hour. Each person argued from a different point of view and consensus was a long time in coming. Gradually people started pointing there fingers at kalira. Or at least they would have done.
"Where did kalira go? She was there a moment ago." Sure enough, she had vanished. A search of the building showed her to be nowhere. Guards had seen her slip out of a sally port before they could stop her.
Kalira has been lynched and is "dead". Role reveal in the morning.
She wasn't the only one to have disappeared. "Has anyone seen Chane?" A voice asked. Each person shook their head in turn. "I haven't seen her since first thing this morning." Nobody else had either.
Two soldiers were sent to her room. It was empty, cleaned out of clothing and other belongings. Clearly, Chane would not be coming back soon.
Chane has been mod-killed. Role reveal in the morning.
Worried, everyone made their way back to their rooms, as darkness fell. Would the storm break tonight, Nynaeve wondered? It couldn't be far away.
It is now night. Please send in night actions by 18:00 UTC, Monday 11th April. Day will begin shortly afterwards.

Report: Unexpectedly large health claims triggered school budget deficit
Six health claims by school district employees, much larger than anticipated, appear to a major factor in the $2 million shortfall in the Board of Education budget, members of the board's ad hoc committee looking into the recently revealed deficit were told Thursday afternoon.
Elio Longo, the school district's business manager, reported that finding to the Health Insurance Fund Review Committee at its first workshop. The panel is also charged with coming up with recommendations to ensure a similar problem does not occur again.
Two of those health claims were close to "a half-million each," Longo said, costing the school system a total of about $1.3 million in unanticipated costs.
Board of Finance member Tom Lasersohn, attending Thursday's meeting, said the school board needs to "understand what those claims were," as well as when school officials knew about the claims "how it was communicated" to the board.
Longo, who discovered the shortfall in late November, said recommendations by his predecessor to reduce the board's cash balance in March, while it didn't create the shortfall, didn't help.
"We understand what happened," said board member Paul Block, an ad hoc committee member. "Now we have to figure out why."
School board member Brett Aronow, who chairs the adhoc committee, said it is seeking to find a solution to the problem. She said the committee will focus on operational management, and better reporting of budget issues.
Longo also gave a lengthy presentation on the school district's health insurance budget, saying officials need to pay attention to trends and fluctuations in the future. He also recommended a new process for tracking employees' monthly claims that will include a variance analysis and fiscal year end forecast.
Block said officials are now focused on reporting because "we need to have good information on time." He said they also need to "keep an eye on cash" and "be aware of any fluctuation."
Block added that, while the ad hoc committee is now just focusing on the health insurance account, the board could expand more aggressive reporting to all parts of the budget.
Wednesday night, the Board of Finance approved hiring the firm of McGladery & Pullen, LLC, at a cost of $15,000, to conduct an independent audit of the deficit in the health insurance budget.
Finance board member Brian Stern on Wednesday said getting to the crux of the matter is important to maintain public confidence in school officials.
That's why, he added, an independent, in-depth inquiry of the deficit and how it occurred is important. "It needs to be totally independent and antiseptic," he said.
The Board of Education, in mid-December, had also approved retaining the services of the same firm to conduct an independent audit, if needed, to confirm the amount of the shortfall, to determine the cause of the shortfall and to make recommendations for the future.
Superintendent of Schools Elliot Landon attended Thursday's ad hoc committee meeting, but sat quietly in one corner of the room.
Earlier in the day, he sent an email to parents, saying he is "completely confident that this issue will be resolved expeditiously and, as the chief school administrator responsible for the day-to-day operations of the school system," he is "committed to working with the Board of Education, Board of Finance, RTM and the towns' auditors to make this happen."
A memo attached to Landon's letter, from school board members, said they are "confident that this issue is a short-term problem that needs a serious review, but will have no impact on our children, teachers or staff."
On Friday morning, Landon is scheduled to present his $110,960,456 budget for 2014-15, a 6.51 percent increase over current spending of $104 million. He told the school board this week that more than 2 percent of the spending hike is needed to address the deficit in the current budget.
Landon said this is the first time in 15 years that he has been forced to deal with a shortfall when preparing his budget for a new fiscal year.
The Board of Education workshop on the new budget request is set for 8:30 a.m. Friday in the Westport Library's McManus Room.

The fifth season of the American political drama television series The West Wing aired in the United States on NBC from September 24, 2003, to May 19, 2004, and consisted of 22 episodes. This was the first season with executive producer John Wells as showrunner after series creator Aaron Sorkin departed the series after the conclusion of the previous season.
The fifth season had star billing for nine major roles, all nine of these were filled by returning main cast members from the fourth season. The cast were credited in alphabetical order except for Martin Sheen, who was listed last. Stockard Channing is only credited for the episodes in which she appears.
Main cast
- Stockard Channing as Abbey Bartlet
- Dulé Hill as Charlie Young
- Allison Janney as C. J. Cregg
- Joshua Malina as Will Bailey
- Janel Moloney as Donna Moss
- Richard Schiff as Toby Ziegler
- John Spencer as Leo McGarry
- Bradley Whitford as Josh Lyman
- Martin Sheen as Josiah Bartlet
The fifth season opens with US forces successfully rescuing Zoey Bartlet from her abductors. Bartlet takes the presidency back from Acting President Walken, but is forced back into a level of powerlessness. He comes to terms with his actions that led to his daughter's kidnapping, a new Republican Speaker of the House (Walken has had to resign in order to assume the presidency) who forces Bartlet into several decisions he doesn't want to make, including the nomination of an unimpressive Democrat, "Bingo Bob" Russell, for Vice President. The conflict with the new Speaker comes to a head in "Shutdown", when the Speaker tries to force Bartlet into cutting federal spending more than had been agreed to and Bartlet refuses to sign the budget, forcing the federal government into a shutdown. Bartlet regains some of his power, cutting a deal to get a liberal Chief Justice of the United States, and season five ends with a bombing in Gaza leading Bartlet to push for Israeli peace talks and Josh to be closer to Donna after she is critically wounded. The fifth season begins toward the end of Bartlet's first year of his second term (fifth year overall) in office. By the end of the season, however, over a year has elapsed.

|The world watches the desperate search for Zoey Bartlet while rival administrations form an uneasy alliance as they weigh options that might include a preemptive military strike at terrorist targets—a move that could doom Zoey. Toby and Will prepare two speeches, one that will be given if Zoey is rescued, the other if she is killed. After the president invokes the 25th amendment, Speaker of the House Glen Allen Walken becomes the new president. The code in the episode title refers to Zoey Bartlet's case file number. The full story behind the assassination of Abdul Shareef is revealed, and a deadly terrorist attack occurs in Turkey.

|The international crisis concerning the terrorist abduction of Bartlet's daughter Zoey reaches a critical point as acting President Walken orders the bombardment of Qumari terrorist camps and fences with Leo over the impact of his actions. The kidnappers issue a 24-hour deadline for the removal of American troops from Qumar, but an intelligence break brings an end to the crisis. Meanwhile, Josh fumes over his perceived notion that the Republicans will exploit and push forward their own legislative agenda. And Toby visits his newborn twins while pondering what will happen.

|Following a harrowing chapter in the nation's history, the White House celebrates the Fourth of July, but most of the staff is not in a cheerful mood. C.J. is moved by the resignation letter of a senior State Department diplomat who could not stomach the Shareef assassination. Bartlet endures the painful process of nominating a candidate for Vice President. His first choice, Secretary of State Lewis Berryhill, can't be approved and he and his staff are unimpressed with the "compromise candidate" they end up with, reflecting on how recent events have emboldened the Republicans. Meanwhile, while the reclusive first lady tends to personal matters and expresses anger towards her husband and Leo, Amy champions Abbey's violence prevention provisions for an upcoming bill and the President drops in on a citizenship swearing-in ceremony. And Donna is appalled by a cocky new intern, Ryan (Jesse Bradford).

|A renowned North Korean pianist is greeted at the White House for a solo performance, but the formalities change when the musician slips a message to the President stating that he wants to defect. Despite C.J.'s passionate argument, others counsel Bartlet that granting the defection would endanger crucial ongoing nuclear negotiations with Pyongyang. Also, members of the staff work hard to get the President's new choice for Vice President, Colorado Congressman Robert Russell (also known as "Bingo Bob") unanimously approved by both houses of Congress and must convince a Democrat who is not a fan of Russell's. Toby and Will express their contempt for the new VP by writing a mock speech highlighting his shortcomings, which is then inadvertently shown on the President's teleprompter instead of their actual speech.

|After Josh is hailed as the "101st Senator" on his birthday in a newspaper profile, he clashes with conservative Senator Carrick, a Democrat from Idaho. Carrick withholds his approval of a backlog of military promotions so he can secure an expensive but faulty missile launcher that a former Republican President pledged to build in his state. Will gets a flattering offer from the newly approved Vice President, Robert Russell, while C.J. runs afoul of Leo's temper when she deviates from the administration's scripted line regarding an Environmental Protection Agency report on coal-based energy. Likewise, Amy earns the President's wrath when she aggressively pushes for funding of the first lady's agenda on violence prevention. Meanwhile, Toby creates a message calendar to maintain focus during Bartlet's second term.

President Bartlet flies to Oklahoma to lend support after tornados devastate an area, but CJ is not impressed with his actions and lets him know he is not doing the job he was elected for. Leo has to deal with plans for a visit by the German Chancellor, a brewing conflict in the Ionian Sea, and the Secretary of Defence's latest over-reaching actions. Josh is in the worst shape when Senator Carrick follows through on his plans to go from being a Republican mole to outright abandoning the Democrats, and Leo takes away his budget responsibilities as Josh goes into a downward spiral.

Meanwhile, Toby dispatches former Supreme Court clerk and White House lawyer Joe Quincy (Matthew Perry) to check on the condition of stricken Chief Justice Roy Ashland, an elderly Supreme Court icon who has Washington wondering if he will finally resign. With the budget deadline quickly approaching, aggressive advisor Angela Blake faces a mighty challenge as she tries to work out an agreement that could compromise Bartlet's campaign promises. But the President is also focused on a crucial national television interview that Zoey has agreed to tape with a well-known newswoman, Diane Mathers, who has a knack for exposing raw emotions.

|While negotiating the federal budget, congress reneges on a deal for a continuing resolution to keep the federal government running. Bartlet refuses to concede to the Republicans' demands and the government is sent into a shutdown, forcing all nonessential employees to leave work. Toby gets a new assistant, Donna (who was not kept on her job as she is non-essential) saves Social Security, Speaker Haffley gets out-maneuvered by President Bartlet on both PR and substantive issues, and the shutdown is resolved after several days.

Meanwhile, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has suspended the license of a doctor who assisted with the suicide of a terminally ill patient in Oregon (where it is legal), and Bartlet's attorney general is siding with the DEA; and Bartlet's son-in-law, Doug Westin, has decided to run for Congress, even though he will not receive the support of the White House.The title is Arabic for "father of daughters" (literally, "father the girl"), from an Arabic proverb,[1] which plays on the parental/sexist roles of the father/daughters relationship; Bartlet has three daughters and no sons.

Onboard, Bartlet's two historic guests partake in a lively debate about their administrations. Lassiter and Newman's past actions haunt the current administration when massive pro-democracy protests are held across Saudi Arabia and the protesters surround a compound containing 50 Americans, leaving Bartlet to decide whether to support the Saudi regime or to risk the fragile status quo by supporting the protesters' efforts. C.J. meets with an eccentric representative from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and Josh and Angela spar over a states' dispute.

Instead of settling on a compromise candidate moderate enough for the both sides of the aisle, Josh and Toby decide to nominate her as the first female Chief Justice of the U.S. by convincing the ailing liberal Justice Ashland to retire, while also nominating a very conservative but brilliant young judge (William Fichtner) to fill the other open seat. Meanwhile, Andy Wyatt is joining a congressional fact-finding mission to the Middle East that troubles the White House.

A Columbus man faces a lawsuit with potential damages of more than $1 million because of comments he made online about his experience renting at a Northwest Side apartment complex. James Raney, an information-technology developer who now lives in Harrison West, commented on several forums about his time at the Meridian off W. 5th Avenue.
A Columbus man faces a lawsuit with potential damages of more than $1 million because of comments he made online about his experience renting at a Northwest Side apartment complex.
James Raney, an information-technology developer who now lives in Harrison West, commented on several forums about his time at the Meridian off W. 5th Avenue. He used a comic tone to contrast the complex�s purported �luxury apartments� and his view of their reality.
The complex�s owner, the Connor Group of Dayton, responded to Raney�s comments with a defamation lawsuit filed in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. It accuses Raney of making untrue statements with the intent to financially damage the company.
Other Connor critics say the suit is nothing more than an attempt to silence someone who is expressing opinions shared by large number of current or former tenants.
In the legal world, this is often called a �strategic lawsuit against public participation,� or SLAPP, said Christopher M. Fairman, an associate dean at Ohio State University�s Moritz College of Law. Some states have laws that limit such suits, but not Ohio.
�This is a poster child for a SLAPP suit,� he said. �The purpose is to silence critics.�
He said Connor Group might have been better off ignoring Raney. By suing, Fairman said, the company risks amplifying the criticism and doing additional damage to its reputation.
Connor Group takes a different view.
Ryan Ernst, a Connor spokesman, had this statement:
�We think it�s our responsibility to accept factual criticism and act on it. But when that criticism is untrue, malicious and defamatory, that crosses the line. In those cases, we�re always going to stand up for ourselves and our associates.�
The company owns or manages more than 14,000 apartments in five states, including nine complexes in central Ohio.
In the suit, Connor asks for damages of �in excess of $25,000� each for a series of about 30 statements by Raney.
The statements, which the company says are untrue and defamatory, include the following:
� Connor is �gaming the system� by paying people to write positive reviews on apartment ratings websites.
� The company does not spend enough money for needed repairs at its properties.
� Connor �financially raped� residents with high fees.
The company has many online critics, including more than 500 people who are members of a Facebook group called Tenants Against Connor Group.
The Better Business Bureau website shows an �A� rating for Connor Group, though it also lists 309 complaints in the past three years and �a pattern of complaints� about maintenance issues, utility billing and poor communication.
Several members of the Facebook critics group were contacted, and they agreed with Raney�s comments, but few agreed to be interviewed for fear of being sued.
One who did agree to speak, Cincinnati accountant Chris Tope, called Connor �a very difficult company to deal with.�
He moved out of his Connor-owned property last year.
Raney, who declined to comment for this story, posts some of his information using the pseudonym �John Yossarian,� the name of the main character in Joseph Heller�s 1961 novel Catch-22.
He began posting two years ago about his experiences at the Meridian, which was about the time he left the complex. He has since started a blog, www.rentn.org, that comments about Connor Group as a whole and the company�s top executive, Larry Connor. On a recent post, he retouched a photo of Connor to make him look like the Emperor from the Star Wars movies.
The personal nature of the criticism probably contributed to the lawsuit, said Paul Levy, an attorney at Public Citizen. The national consumer-advocacy group has represented people in cases like this but is not involved in this one.
�It tends to be small to midsize companies� that sue for defamation, he said. �It tends not to be the General Motors of the world. It tends to be a company where there is an individual who built the company, and he doesn�t like it when the online world criticizes it.�
