US consumer prices rose an annual 2.7 percent in August
By Josh Boak
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) Consumer prices rose 2.7 percent in August from a year earlier, with higher housing and gasoline costs driving most of the increase.
The Labor Department said Thursday that the consumer price index advanced 0.2 percent on a monthly basis. Despite the monthly gain, annual inflation softened from the 2.9 percent pace set during the 12 months ended in July.
The more modest inflation rate should help to boost the spending power of Americans whose recent wage gains had been eaten up by higher prices. The Federal Reserve is closely monitoring inflation levels in order to determine if short-term interest rates should be increased to keep prices stable. Fed officials are expected to boost rates for a third time this year during a meeting in September.
Average hourly wages climbed 2.9 percent during the 12 months ended in August, outpacing inflation slightly. The Trump administration has argued that income growth is much higher if bonuses, benefits and federal tax cuts are included in the calculation.
Core prices, which exclude the volatile food and energy categories, increased 0.1 percent in August and 2.2 percent from a year ago.
The single largest expenditure, housing, saw related expenses climb 0.3 percent in August and 3.4 percent annually. Gas prices jumped 3 percent last month and 20.3 percent on the year. Food costs ticked up just 0.1 percent last month. Clothing prices plunged 1.6 percent last month, while new vehicle costs were unchanged.
Separately, the Labor Department reported that 204,000 people filed for unemployment benefits last week. This was 1,000 fewer people than the prior week and the lowest number of applications since December 1969.

There was only one problem with jumping into the Canal in an attempt to get rid of the drugs…
Eddy Murphy
Eddy Murphy, age 36, of 9 Jackson Street in Lyons is no stranger to police. He has been arrested numerous times for drug possession, sex trafficking, with four prior felony convictions. Wednesday (9/12) afternoon at 4:30 p.m. was no different for Murphy.
State Police stopped Murphy’s vehicle for Failure to Stop at a Stop Sign on Route 31 at Nye Road in the Town of Lyons. Troopers immediatley smelled marijuana and found 41 1/2 grams.
As he was being placed under arrest Murphy made a mad dash for the nearby Erie Canal, jumping in an attempting to swim to the north side. Along the way Murphy was observed dumping a stash of various narcotics on his frantic swim. “He was so tired we were not sure he was going to make it,” said one trooper on the scene.
Instead of wading in the cold waters after Murphy, Troopers simply drove on the north side and waited for him to exit and climb the canal bank.
As for the jettisoned drugs? Murphy soon learned that baggies of illicit drugs float in water. State Police retrieved the drugs and Murphy was charged with Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the Third Degree- Crack Cocaine; Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the Seventh Degree-Heroin; Criminal Possession of Marijuana in the Fifth Degree; Resisting Arrest and Tampering With Physical Evidence.
Murphy was arraigned in Lyons Town Court and due to his past criminal history, remanded to jail on No Bail, pending his next court appearance. He also had a warrant out from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office for Failure to Register Change of Address as a Level Three Sex Offender.

Pizza shop owners defraud Wayne County Social Services in “Operation Find the Dough”
Francis Steen
The Wayne County Office of the Sheriff’s Welfare Fraud Unit, in conjunction with the Wayne County Department of Social Services, reported the arrest on Wednesday (9/12) at 9:47 a.m. of a Town of Savannah couple for multiple Felony charges following a 16 month long investigation into “Operation Find the Dough.”
Arrested were Francis (Frank) A. Steen, age 43, and Alicia M. Sanders, age 36, both of Prospect Street in Savannah.
An investigation was initiated by the Department of Social Services following multiple reports that Steen and Sanders were possibly operating a business in Seneca County. It was then discovered, through the course of the investigation, that Steen and Sanders actually were the owners of a business in the Village of Waterloo operating under the names F-n-A’s Good Pizza and F-n-A’s Rhythm and Booze. Deputies then determined that Steen and Sanders intentionally failed to report the business and revenue to the Wayne County Department of Social Services.
Alicia Sanders
As a result from May 1, 2013 to September 30, 2018, Steen and Sanders received $23,957 in SNAP benefits, $676 in HEAP benefits and $44,594 in Medicaid Benefits they were not entitled to. Steen and Sanders defrauded the Wayne County Department of Social Services out of $69,227 worth of total benefits that they should have never received.
Steen and Sanders were arrested at the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office on the charges of Grand Larceny 2nd degree, Welfare Fraud 2nd degree, Conspiracy 4th degree and Offering a False Instrument 1st degree. They were arraigned at the Town of Lyons Court and remanded to the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office on $1,00 bail/$2,000 bond. They are scheduled to reappear before the Town of Lyons Court on a later date to answer the charges.
According to Wayne County Sheriff Barry Virts, a tip concerning how the couple were living beyond their means led to a warrant search of records, followed by an accounting firm being brought in for several weeks to follow the paper trail.
Assisting the Wayne County Office of Sheriff were the Seneca County Sheriff’s Office, Village of Waterloo Police Department, New York State Police, and the Internal Revenue Service: Criminal Investigation Unit.

Column: What would Ronnie do?
HIM/HER: “Hello Mr. Holdraker, this is _____ and I have something that will knock your socks off and add to the already questionable acts and sanity of the President. I know you are no champion of President Trump and have criticized many of his antics, tweets and decisions.
ME: “Ahh, yeah, I know who you are and I know you are definitely an insider to the White House inner circle. Yeah, I know you probably have a lot of dirt on the day-to-day West Wing weirdness. How can I help you?
HIM/HER: “I would like to describe what goes on behind closed doors. There are several of US who are out to really protect this country. We hide documents and take them off his desk before he can even sign them. We kind of secretly dictate, or distract the President. It is kind of a slight-of-hand thing to keep the insanity from boiling over. We do the best we can to save this country, the presidency. Many members of his administration are working to “thwart parts of his agenda and his worst inclinations.” What do you think?”
ME: “I think that is great. It is about time some true Republicans, Senior Officials and Cabinet Members grew some balls.”
HIM/HER: “I imagine, in the piece, titled, “I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration,” we could state that we want the administration to succeed, but we have had to work against Trump’s “misguided impulses” and parts of his agenda.
“To be clear, ours is not the popular ‘resistance’ of the left. We want the administration to succeed and think that many of its policies have already made America safer and more prosperous. But we believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.
ME: “Hmm, sounds good so far. I really appreciate you, or you guys, putting your heads on the Trump chopping block to get the truth out.”
HIM/HER: “Whoa there, Hop Along! I/We are only doing this on condition I/We remain anonymous.”
ME: “Let me get this straight. You want theTimes to print your entire essay on the goings on of the President, all the whacky doodle stuff, but you want the Times to print this essay anonymously?
What do you think the Times is, a cheesy tabloid? We have a rich tradition of NOT publishing anonymous tirades, regardless of who, what, why and whatever. To do so would cheapen journalism and everything We/I stand for.
I know what you say may be true, but without journalistic integrity and the ability to attribute dates, time and accuracy, the Times simply cannot print your essay. You must attribute your words, you must identify the author. Yes, I know who you are and that your job may be jeopardized by your name being disclosed.”
HIM/HER: “Trump’s “amorality”, his impulses, “generally anti-trade and anti-democratic moves make this an essay worth the sacrifice of anonymity. The root of the problem is the president’s amorality. Anyone who works with him knows he is not moored to any discernible first principles that guide his decision making. Look, this twotrack presidency, saying when Trump expresses a desire we take a particular action, aides and officials around him work to do another. Basically we praise the administration, but suggests that its successes are not because of the president. We originally speculated about invoking the 25th Amendment to deem Trump unsuited for office and remove him, but we did not want to “precipitate a constitutional crisis. It may be cold comfort in this chaotic era, but Americans should know that there are adults in the room. We fully recognize what is happening. And we are trying to do what’s right even when Donald Trump won’t.
ME: “So you want to usurp the office of the presidency, a president the voters elected, right, or wrong of how it has turned out?
HIM/HER: “Yup” ME: “Nope! The voters elected this guy. I don’t like him, or the things he has done. His trade policies are mostly a disaster. His tax cuts will, in the end, be proven to be a disaster for the economy. His poo-pooing of the climate change reality in favor of deregulation will probably kill. I hate he has devalued the office of the President with daily, embarrassing Tweets. I hate that he has lowered the image of the U.S. globally. I hate he has broken treaties and allied himself with demi-gods and killers such as Putin and Kim Jong Un. However, I still believe, in the long run, the American voter will come to their senses and put a cap on the Madness of King Trump.
Meanwhile, I/We will not lower ourselves to publish your essay. I do not believe We/I should sacrifice our morality, our standards, in face of tough times, or because of them.

Column: Josh All-In
So, Josh Allen it is.
Who among you had the former Wyoming Cowboy starting Week Two? Bravo.
Thoughts and prayers go out to the Buffalo Bills and their fans from here on through next April.
That’s not a shot at Allen. In fact, most, if not, all those sky solicitations should be for No. 17.
Right now, Allen–not Terry Pegula, not Kim, not Brandon Beane, nor Sean McDermott–is the most important person in the organization.
That’s not hyperbole; it’s fact.
Think about what’s riding on those shoulders: First, the Bills need to avoid the third possible 0-16 season in the history of the NFL. And, if you have the heart and optimism to believe a 4-12 year is attainable, look back at the second half of the Ravens blowout where Buffalo’s first-string offense, defense and special teams and realize they were dominated by backups while the rest of the Baltimore roster was onto Cincinnati–a game only four days later.
Second, McDermott waited until ESPN broke the story Wednesday that Allen would start instead of telling everyone himself, meaning there was a reason giving him pause.
Either McDermott couldn’t finally admit he was wrong about the former fifth-round selection from Pitt (which he still hasn’t admitted after the previous Chargers game), or still doesn’t think Allen can handle the NFL game as well as (whelp!) Peterman.
Or, Peterman was so bad, the natural question was “how the heck did he win the job in the preseason?”
All valid. Frankly, neither quarterback had help from the offensive line or his receivers. But, there were also plays left on the field, a bugaboo of former Bills quarterback Tyrod (ahem! Tuh-ROD) Taylor that led to Peterman a season ago.
Now, it’s all-in with Allen. The team can’tpossibly go back to Peterman if Allen fails. In fact, they can’t go back to Peterman if Allen gets hurt, either. They need to bring in a veteran. They had one once, and decided they were better-off with a fifth-round pick
instead after they chose 2017’s fifth-rounder over him.
AJ McCarron now waits for his next chance in Oakland.
And, Allen can’t even get hurt even if it means he’s mimicking the performance of his predecessor. The Bills need a full season to evaluate Allen and see if he’s the guy so they have no excuses (see: Manuel, EJ) come next April to finally get it right.
If Allen goes 0-15, or 1-14, odds are he’ll lead Buffalo to his possible replacement.
On the contrary, if he gets better and the team wins a few more, and the team thinks it has a guy for the next decade, you’ll get to use that early pick to fix other holes in the roster.
Or, the worst-case scenario: Allen proves he can’t play, and the team still decides to give him a second year.
Don’t think you could put it past Mc-Beane?
A year ago, Denver Broncos beat reporter, Benjamin Albright, broke news that the Bills brass told anyone who would listen at the 2017 NFL Combine they LOVED Nathan Peterman.
They took him.
We know what ensued. Twice.
Last winter, same reporter, same team, same story, same position.
The player?
Josh Allen.
Same outcome(?).
No pressure, kid.
Explaining how bad this roster looks to folks outside Bills country goes kinda like this: Democrats swore life couldn’t get much worse than George W. Bush just before his 2004 re-election.
Compared to the guy that sits in Oval now, the left would consider Dubya worthy of Rushmore.
Over the course of a 17-year playoff drought, the Bills never finished worse than 29th in the league.
If No. 17 can’t grow-up quickly, there are plenty of bad quarterbacks, coaches and GMs in recent memory you’ll wish were this year’s problem.
