Subway’s Jared to admit 7ZREHFRPH¿UVWIHPDOHVWRSDVV$UP\5DQJHU6FKRRO

“This course has proven her “We
women have passed the Army’s Ranger
owe soldiers the opportunity
to child-porn charges
School, becoming the ¿rst females to
that every soldier, regard- to serve successfully in any position
INDIANAPOLIS
(AP) — Longtime Subway
pitchman Jared Fogle is
expected to plead guilty to
child-pornography charges,
an Indiana television station
reported Tuesday.
The report on Fox59
comes six weeks after
authorities seized electronics
and other items from Fogle’s
home in Zionsville, an
afÀuent Indianapolis suburb.
Citing sources it did not
identify, the station said
Fogle would enter a plea
Wednesday. It also said
the U.S. Attorney’s Of¿ce
in Indianapolis planned to
hold a news conference
Wednesday.
The 37-year-old Fogle
became a Subway pitchman
more than 15 years ago after
shedding more than 200
pounds as a college student,
in part by eating the chain’s
sandwiches.
Subway suspended its
association with Fogle
after the raid. The company
declined
to
comment
Tuesday, saying only that the
chain had “already ended our
relationship with Jared.”
Ron
Elberger,
an
Indianapolis attorney who
represents Fogle, and Tim
Horty, a spokesman for the
U.S. Attorney’s Of¿ce in
Indianapolis, both declined
to comment on the report.
Two months before
Fogle’s home was raided,
authorities arrested the
then-executive director of
Fogle’s foundation on child-
porn charges. Russell Taylor,
43, ran the Jared Foundation,
which sought to raise aware-
ness about childhood obesity.
He was charged with seven
counts of production of
child pornography and one
count of possession of child
pornography.
complete the grueling combat training
program and earn the right to wear
Ranger tabs on their uniforms.
The Army’s Ranger headquarters
in Fort Benning, Georgia, says the
women and 94 men passed the tough
62-day course that tests their ability to
overcome fatigue, hunger and stress
during combat operations.
While completing the leadership
course lets the two women wear the
coveted Ranger black-and-gold tab, it
does not let them become members of
the Ranger regiment. Neither woman
has been identi¿ed by the military.
Allowing women to participate in
the Ranger course is part of the U.S.
military’s push to open more combat
jobs to women. But the toughest jobs
remain closed to female soldiers —
including infantry, armor and special
operations positions. That includes the
75th Ranger Regiment, which requires
additional schooling that is physically
and mentally challenging before
soldiers can join.
Still, former Army of¿cers such as
Sue Fulton, who in 1980 was among
the ¿rst women to graduate from the
less of gender, can achieve
his or her full potential.”
— John McHugh, Army Secretary
U.S. Military Academy at West Point,
celebrated the news as another mile-
stone toward ending gender barriers in
the military.
“This answers whatever questions
may still remain about whether women
have the strength, the will and the
physical courage to become combat
leaders,” said Fulton, a former Army
captain who now chairs the West Point
Board of Visitors, an advisory panel of
presidential appointees and members
of Congress.
A graduation ceremony will be held
Friday at Fort Benning, the U.S. Army
post near the Georgia-Alabama line.
“Each Ranger School graduate has
shown the physical and mental tough-
ness to successfully lead organizations
at any level,” Army Secretary John
McHugh said in a statement. “This
course has proven that every soldier,
regardless of gender, can achieve his or
where they are quali¿ed and capable,”
he added.
The 62-day Ranger school includes
three phases, each in a different part
of the country: wooded areas of Fort
Benning, the Appalachian mountains
of north Georgia, and swamps in
Florida.
The ¿rst 20 days of Ranger school
focus on military skills and endur-
ance. Then, the mountain phase near
Dahlonega, Georgia, includes more
small-unit operations and survival
techniques. The ¿nal so-called swamp
phase takes place in Florida and
includes airborne assault, amphibious
operations and extreme mental and
physical stress.
Female soldiers were held to the
same physical standards as men. That
included passing a ¿tness test of 49
push-ups, 59 sit-ups, six chin-ups and
¿nishing a 5-mile run in 40 minutes.
Graduates also had to perform a
12-mile foot march in three hours,
complete three parachute jumps and
four air assaults on helicopters as well
as endure 27 days of mock combat
patrols.
Oregon unemployment rate
rises despite strong jobs report
PORTLAND (AP) —
Oregon posted another month
of strong job growth, and the
brisk hiring pace might be
giYing workers the con¿dence
to quit their jobs in search of a
better one.
The state added 4,600
jobs last month, the Oregon
Employment Department said
Tuesday. It’s a typical gain
during a 12-month span that
has seen payroll employment
increase by about 56,000 jobs.
“Some of the growth
is related to in-migration,”
said David Cooke, a state
economist. “More people
are moving to Oregon than
are moving out of Oregon,
and many people are moving
from California as shown by
the data for drivers’ licenses
surrendered.”
Despite the strong jobs
report, the unemployment
rate jumped to 5.9 percent in
July from 5.5 percent in June.
The rate was 7 percent in July
2014.
Rather than layoffs, state
employment economist Nick
Beleiciks attributed much of
the increase to people entering
the labor market or voluntarily
leaving their jobs. “Oregon’s
economy is adding jobs so fast
right now that many of them
will ¿nd work quickly,” he
said.
Job growth for July was
strong in many industries,
particularly
construction,
retail trade and professional
and business services. The
biggest laggard was govern-
ment — down even more
than expected at the end of the
school year.
An enduring story since
the end of the recession is that
jobs have returned but pay
raises have not. State ¿gures,
however, show wage inÀation
accelerating a bit. The average
hourly wage for private sector
payroll employees was $23.31
in July, up 2.4 percent from
$22.77 a year earlier. In recent
years, the norm for Oregon
workers has been about 2
percent.
