Accident in Pike County

Pictured is Deputy Randy Walters, MPD Officers Eli Riddle and Jason Hanson as they were completing their report.

Adams County Deputy Sheriff Randy Walters and Manchester Police Officers Jason Hanson and Eli Riddle were on routine patrol on Monday, February 25. They observed a Ford F-150 sitting in the roadway just north of 8th Street on Jack Roush Way. The officers heard someone squealing tires. As they spotted the vehicle both officers made the traffic stop. As officers approached the vehicle the subject attempted to flee the scene, squealing tires and in the process almost striking officers.

The subject was attempting to turn in

his driveway at 812 Jack Roush Way. Officers ordered the subject to stop the vehicle. The subject wasn't complying.

The subject fell out of the vehicle, because he was so intoxicated. Officer Hanson had to put the vehicle in park.

The Manchester Fire Department and Life Squad were dispatched to the scene.

The subject was identified as Terry Courtney. Charges were filed on Courtney for: DUI, Driving Under Suspension and Parking in Roadway. Criminal Charges are Pending.

Undercover Drug Investigation Leads to 89 Indictments Against 14 Individuals Sheriff Dwayne Wenninger reports that after a ten month investigation into illegal drug activity in Brown County, fourteen individuals have been indicted on 89 counts of drug related offenses. Sheriff Wenninger stated that the Brown County Prosecutor’s Office presented the cases to the Grand Jury on Wednesday, February 27 and the Grand Jury returned 89 indictments on 14 individuals.

The warrants were issued on Thursday, February 28.

Sheriff Wenninger stated that the Drug Investigation Unit consisted of two individuals from the Brown County Sheriff’s Office and a third officer from the Mt. Orab Police Department who joined the Drug Investigation Unit in January of this year.

“This investigation was different from our routine street level purchasing of drugs,” said Sheriff Wenninger.

“This investigation concentrated on organized groups of individuals that were involved in the Possession of, Manufacturing of, and/or Selling of Methamphetamine in Brown County.”

The following is a list of suspects indicted:

Ashley Devilbliss, 23, of Mt. Orab, (8 Counts) Brett Highfield, 18, of Mt. Orab, (11 Counts) Dana Vogel, 23, from Fayetteville, (6 Counts) Jeremy Jetter, 27, of Mt. Orab, (5 Counts) Kiel M. Sprague, 30, from Sardinia, (7 Counts) Kristen Stith, 21, of Mt. Orab, (5 Counts) Mark Evans, 48, of Williamsburg, (5 Counts) Michael Kern, 22, of Georgetown, (5 Counts) Phillip Murrell, 55, of Mt. Orab, (7 Counts) Robert W. Baker, 27, of Mt. Orab, (6 Counts) Shelia Devilbliss, 19, of Sardinia, (9 Counts) Tonya M. Stamper, 39, of Sardinia, (5 Counts) Terry Funk, 27, of Mt. Orab, (5 Counts) Timothy Vogel, 23, of Fayetteville, (5 Counts) Zac Corbin, First Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, Brown County Prosecutor's Office said, "it is no secret that all drugs continue to have a devastating effect on our community.

The Prosecutor's Office will continue to work closely with the Brown County Sheriff's Office and other local police departments, to

ensure that individuals choosing to sell drugs, manufacture drugs, or bring drugs into Brown County, are brought to justice. We ask all citizens of Brown County to take an active role in helping to get drugs off our streets, by contacting the Brown County Sheriff's office, or their local police department, with any tips or information regarding known drug users or activity. We are making progress, but there is a long road ahead in fighting this war on drugs."

Seven of the individuals are incarcerated at the Brown County Adult Detention Center awaiting arraignment on the charges. Remaining at large are: Dana Vogel, Tim Vogel, Mark Evans, Shelia Devilbliss, Ashley Devilbliss, Michael Kern and Kristin Stith.

“I would like to thank the Mt. Orab Police Department for their joint effort in helping to fight drug abuse in Brown County,” said Sheriff Wenninger. “With Mt. Orab providing additional man hours, we have been successful in investigating more cases.”

March Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month “Look Beyond” is the theme for Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month 2013. The Adams County Board of DD and Venture Productions, Inc. celebrate Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month and invite you to consider the true meaning of “Look Beyond”.

In Ohio and across the nation, organizations devoted to serving individuals with developmental disabilities are planning special events in March to raise public awareness of the many abilities people have, regardless of disability. “Look Beyond” encourages people to understand that when people with disabilities are welcomed into local neighborhoods, workplaces, houses of worship, and schools everyone wins. “This is

a time when our organization focuses on encouraging the public to better understand the individuals we serve,” said Scott Amen, Superintendent of the Adams County Board of DD. During Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, we encourage people to learn more about the 120 + people in

this county who are being served by the Board of DD and to recognize that all of us have talents and abilities that can we can offer to make our community a better place to live.

The Adams County Board of DD will kicked off its recog-

nition of March as DD Awareness month with a proclamation from the County Commissioners on Monday, March 4. Other activities include church bulletin inserts, informational place-mats in area restaurants, newspaper articles, public service announcements, as well as speaking engagements with local groups and organization. During March, get acquainted with someone who has a developmental disability. You will learn that everyone has something to offer and that when we are all together our communities are stronger, we accomplish more and everyone wins!

219,000 White-Tailed Deer Harvested in Ohio Deer-archery season ended February 3, bringing the white-tailed deer season to a close. Hunters harvested 218,910 whitetailed deer during Ohio’s 2012-2013 hunting seasons for all implements, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). Hunters checked 219,748 deer in 2011-2012, a difference of less than 1,000 deer this season.

“Ohio has become one of the nation’s top destinations for hunting white-tailed deer,” said ODNR Director James Zehringer. “We would like to thank the nearly 500,000 out doors men and out doors women that participated during this hunting season. It is their efforts in the field that help us provide some of the best outdoor recreational opportunities in the country.”

Hunters continue to support alternate methods to report deer kills. Since the deer season began on September 29, 2012, 44% of hunters phoned in their report, 40 percent reported online and 16 percent traveled to a license agent’s location.

Ohio's first modern day deer-gun season opened in 1943 in three counties and hunters checked 168 deer. Deer hunting was

allowed in all 88 counties in 1956, and hunters harvested 3,911 deer during the one-week season.

The white-tailed deer is the most popular game animal in Ohio and is frequently pursued by generations of hunters. Ohio ranks eighth nationally in annual huntingrelated sales and 10th in the number of jobs associated with the hunting-related industry. Each year, hunting has an $859 million economic impact in Ohio through the sale of equipment, fuel, food, lodging and more.

For more information on deer and deer hunting, visit wildohio.com.

A list of all white-tailed deer checked by hunters during the 2012-2013 hunting season is shown below. The first number following the county’s name shows the harvest numbers for 2013, and the 2012 numbers are in parentheses.

Adams: 4,111 (4,208) Brown: 2,933 (3,086) Highland: 3,250 (3,304) Pike: 2,262 (2,367) Scioto: 2,821 (2,887) The Total of all of Ohio's 88 counties was 218,910 (219,748).

Politics & Government It’s Time for President Obama to Get Serious About Replacing his Sequester Today, Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) released the following column discussing the president’s sequester: “Over the past 10 years, more than $100 million in EPA grants have gone to foreign countries. The IRS spends $4 million annually to run its own fullservice television studio. And I could go on.

“With our national debt at $16 trillion – that’s more than $52,000 for every American – I believe these are just a few of the cuts that must be made to address our government’s serious spending problem.

They’re also the type of more responsible cuts that should replace the president’s sequester that’s scheduled to go into effect on March 1.

“As I noted in this column a few weeks ago, the ‘sequester’ is a series of mandatory spending cuts that was first proposed by President Obama, and eventually passed by Congress as part of the debt limit agreement of 2011. The White House insisted on the sequester to – among other things – avoid having to revisit the debt limit before the 2012 election.

“Short on time to avoid a harmful default after the president blew up deficit reduction talks with demands of $400 billion in additional tax hikes, Republicans and Democrats reluctantly agreed to ‘sequester’ operating accounts for federal programs and agencies like border security, law enforcement, and the Department of Defense.

The hope was that the House-Senate ‘super-committee’ could come to

Secretary of State Jon Husted announced that 8,060 new entities filed to do business in Ohio in January 2013. These numbers are up compared to January 2012, in which 6,940 new entities filed with the Secretary of State.

Ohio Leading on Bioscience Innovation Ohio has always been a leader in manufacturing and innovation. From steel in Cleveland to machine tools in Cincinnati, from tires in Akron to glass in Toledo, Ohio innovators and visionaries made Ohio a manufacturing powerhouse.

The latest chapter of this storied history of innovation and success is being written not only on factory floors in traditional industrial centers, but also in laboratories and hospitals throughout the state.

Over the past couple of decades, Ohio has become the home of a thriving bioscience community, made up of universities, hospitals, health systems, and private companies.

I have seen firsthand many of these bioscience and biotechnology success stories across the state. A recent study confirms that these companies and health research and treatment centers are an engine of job growth.

BioOhio, a nonprofit trade and advocacy organization for biological sciences in Ohio, commissioned a study from Cleveland State University that found there are currently over 1,200 bioscience-related organizations in Ohio, a number that will continue to grow.

In just the five-year period from 2007 to 2011, 380 new bioscience-related firms began operations in the state. These organizations have provided a tremendous boost to Ohio's economy. Bioscience-related companies currently employ over 60,000 Ohioans, a number that reflects a 16.5 percent increase since 2000. These statistics provide just a snapshot of the growing and thriving biotech industry in Ohio.

The industry constantly innovates by generating new technologies and breaking scientific barriers. This is demonstrated by the number of patents awarded to Ohio innovators. In 2011, Ohio innovators were issued over 3,000 patents -- and almost 700 of these were biosciencerelated. That is nearly double the current national average per state of 370, and enough to rank Ohio

among those in Ohio's bioscience and biotechnology community that taxes designed to pay for President Obama's health care spending law will slow and potentially stifle future growth.

For instance, the law created a 2.3 percent excise tax on the revenues of medical device companies that took effect on January 1, 2013.

This component of the law is particularly damaging because it levies a tax on these companies regardless of whether U.S. Senator they make a profit or Rob Portman not. Many start-up (R) companies fail to turn a profit for their first few years, and the extra burden of this tax will be particularly punitive eighth in the nation. and potentially devastatThis remarkable ing. growth has not been isolatClearly, this is not the ed to one or two particular best way to foster innovaregions in our state.

House Passage of the Violence Against Women Act Congress put politics aside and voted to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. 18 years ago, I envisioned a world where women could live free from violence and abuse. Since VAWA first passed in 1994, we have seen a 64% reduction in domestic violence. I am pleased that this progress will continue, with new tools for cops and prosecutors to hold abusers and rapists accountable, and more support for all victims of these crimes.

The urgent need for this bill cannot be more obvi-

ous. Consider just one fact—that 40% of all mass shootings started with the murderer targeting their

Vice President Joe Biden (D)

girlfriend, or their wife, or their ex-wife. Among many other important provisions, the new VAWA will increase the use of proven models of reducing domes-

tic violence homicides.

This morning I met with several parents whose beautiful young daughters were killed by abusive boyfriends.

Nothing puts this legislation in to perspective more than their stories. This issue should be beyond politics—and I want to thank the leaders from both parties—Patrick Leahy, Mike Crapo, Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Gwen Moore—and the bipartisan majorities in both the House and the Senate who have made that clear once again.

Cuffs & Collars Field reports from ODNR Division of Wildlife Officers Southeast Ohio During the extra deer gun weekend, State Wildlife Officers Chris Dodge and Dan Perko were patrolling together in Athens County. While traveling on a county road, the officers observed a man dressed in hunter orange driving an SUV through a field behind a residence that Officer Dodge was familiar with. The officers parked in the driveway of the residence and walked through the field to make contact with the hunters. The officers contacted two men in the vehicle, both dressed in hunter orange, and each in possession of loaded shotguns. In addition, an 11-year-old juvenile was hunting nearby and was not accompanied by an adult.

All the persons involved were pursuing a deer that had been shot, and by this time, it was after legal hunting hours. Officer Dodge quickly recognized the driver of the vehicle, who he’d charged five years prior for hunting deer with a shotgun during the muzzle loader season and insufficient hunter orange. In addition, the man was also indicted and convicted of a Felony charge of Possessing a Firearm while under weapons disability. Now five years later, the driver of the vehicle again faces multiple wildlife charges in addition to a second Felony indictment for Possessing a Firearm while under weapons disability- by the same wildlife officer. The passenger of the vehicle received two summonses for Hunting by the aid of a motor vehicle and hunting deer after hours, and paid $399 in fines and court costs.

Early fall of 2012 found State Wildlife Officers Jerrod Allison of Coshocton County and Jeff Berry of Muskingum County patrolling public property of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District for people digging ginseng on public property. Ginseng is not allowed to be harvested on public property managed by the Division of Wildlife. While on patrol, the officers noticed a vehicle parked alongside of a State Route in Knox County. The Officers set up surveillance on the vehicle and observed 1 man exit the woods quickly and get into the vehicle.

The officers made contact with the man and asked if he was digging ginseng in this area. He answered no, he was just hiking.

During the course of the investigation the officers discovered that he had hidden a small bag of ginseng under the front seat of his NOTICE Resolution 2013-2 authorizing the village of West Union to file an application to the State of Ohio to participate in the local government innovation Fund Program and Declaring an Emergency. The remainder of this resolution may be viewed or copy obtained at the Village Clerk's Office at 33 Logans Lane, West Union, Ohio 45693.

vehicle. The man was given a ticket for digging ginseng on public property and the ginseng was seized for evidence. The officers proceeded to drive about half mile on the same road into Coshocton County where they saw another vehicle parked along the side of the road. This time two men exited the woods. The officers asked them what they were doing, and they replied hiking. Officer Allison checked the area where they had exited the woods and

found a bag of fresh harvested ginseng. During the course of the investigation Officer Berry found another bag of fresh dug ginseng in the woods, which the other had dug from public property. Both men were issued tickets for digging ginseng on public property and their ginseng was seized. On the opening day of Waterfowl Season Officers Allison and Berry were on patrol in Muskingum County. They received a TIP of a vehicle parked along private property and the complainant thought the owners of the vehicle may be digging ginseng without permission. The officers found the vehicle and observed three men exit the woods after digging ginseng.

During the course of this investigation, it was found that one of the men had a warrant out for his arrest from Muskingum County.

This man was taken into custody and all three were issued tickets for digging ginseng without permission. All 6 men were found guilty in the respective county courts, and were ordered to pay fines and forfeit the ginseng that they had dug.

Central Ohio – Wildlife District One During the statewide deer gun season, Wildlife Officer Jeff Tipton and Wildlife Officer Supervisor Curt Smith were patrolling northeastern Champaign County. The officers planned to visit a property that a landowner reported suspected illegal hunting. As the officers entered the driveway a hunter was seen off to their right disappearing into the brush. Officer Smith went to look for the hunter, returning with a 15 years old youth who

was hunting alone. The young hunter was hunting with a shotgun that was capable of holding more than three shotgun shells.

The young hunter told the officers that his older brother had dropped him off and left. Officers Tipton and Smith requested that the young hunter call his brother and have him return to the property.

Officer Tipton was familiar with the older brother; he was the subject of a deer investigation from earlier in the year. Once the brother arrived and the officers explained the situation, the hunting violations were handled and the officers were just about to let the two young men go when something caught Tipton's attention. As Tipton was speaking with the older brother, he noticed blood on the front of his shirt underneath a hoodie that he was wearing.

When Tipton asked about the blood, he acted unaware at first, and then tried to explain that it was from some birds that he cleaned. The young man eventually stated that the blood was from a deer that he had shot earlier in the day. The deer was hanging at his house and did not have a tag on it. The officers followed the young men to their house; there they confirmed that the deer was untagged. The older brother was charged with failing to place a temporary tag on the deer because this was his second deer violation, he was charged with a first degree misdemeanor. He appeared in court and was ordered to pay a $500 fine plus court costs and he received a 12 month suspension of his hunting privileges.

Northwest Ohio While patrolling Henry County during the deer gun season State Wildlife Officers Troy Reimund and Eric VonAlmen dove through an area that had numerous complaints of people dumping deer carcasses. The officers came upon a truck stopped in the middle of the road as two men walked around the back of the truck. The two men got in the truck and drove away. The officers stopped where the truck had been parked and found two fresh deer carcasses on top of a large sheet of cardboard, laying on top of three other deer carcasses that had been dumped there previously. The officers proceeded down the road and stopped the suspects.

Reimund and VonAlmen learned that the occupants had just processed the two deer and dumped them along the road. The officers also discovered that the suspects had not checked in their deer prior to processing them as the law requires. The driver and

Commissioner Speaks About Projects Since the beginning of the year, your Adams County Board of Commissioners has been hard at work for you. I want to highlight two new projects and one ongoing project that I believe are important to the county.

A new policy of the board is to hold a working session once a week, which is in addition to the general session. This will allow the board more time to gather information and to make more informed decisions for the people of Adams County. The board continues to hold a general session meeting on Mondays beginning at 9:00 a.m. Both sessions are open to the public.

The county has a newly appointed Apiary “Bee” Inspector for 2013. Bill Wickerham will serve in this important role to ensure that our honey bees, hives and colonies are free of disease.

An ongoing program that has shown early success is the Adams County Court of Common Pleas rehabilitative sentencing program. In 2011, a bill was passed in the Ohio House of Representatives, which provided an

overhaul of Ohio’s court sentencing laws. This bill was designed to make greater use of community based corrections programs and give inmates an opportunity to reduce their sentences through education, job training and drug treatment. Our local court system was charged with the task of finding creative solutions for alternative sentencing and I am proud to say that they are doing a tremendous job. There are currently 15 graduates of the GED Paul Worley, course that have (D) earned high school Adams County diplomas. 24 individuCommissioner als are now fully employed, 9 currently enrolled in college courses and 2 in vocational training. I applaud the hard work and effort of all those involved in this program. We are moving forward in our fight against drugs in the county.

The job of any elected official is to serve the people, so if you have any concerns or issues please contact the commissioners’ office at 937-544-3286 or send me an email at paul.worley@adamscountyoh.gov

This week we are talking about the Coxcomb quilt block. I must admit to having spring fever.

Every time I see seed packets in the stores I smile. I can't wait to dig in the dirt. So in honor of the spring that is sure to come, the quilt block is called the coxcomb.

There are many varieties and designs of this quilt. Many beds during the civil war era in this country surly had quilts with flower patterns. This pattern is applique and can be made by drawing your own pattern for the look and style you like. I have seen antique blocks have a circle with these flowers on 4 sides, to quilts with these in rows or in borders.

You can use this block in your civil war quilt challenge quilt but it is optional. Is there a block you would like to see in the quilt? If so. please please let us know!

Dear Miss Needles Dear Miss Needles: I want to learn to knit. Any suggestings on which needles I should buy to start out with? Sign me Ima Newknitter Dear Ima: It really depends. There are wonderful kits that are starter kits that are quite pricy but they have the circular needles, the double pointed ones, hooks markers and even learn to knit books. I would start with just one pair of knitting needles and make 1 item to see if you like it before investing a lot of money in something you may not use. Good luck and send us a picture of your finished project.

Dear Miss Needles: What type of knitting machine do you recommend? Signed Daisy Dear Daisy: I have used a friends knitting machine in the past but I am not a huge fan of the machines. I know of folks who can make a sweater in a day on a machine. Personally, knitting is theraputic and I like to sit in my chair, feet propped on a stool and knit by hand. That being said, there are many types of machines and the prices are as varied as the types. There are cute little plastic machines for $19.99 and there are large machines in the $2,500.00 range.

Remember to pick a machine that suits your needs and one that you will use a lot to get your money's worth out of the machine. It's like my vegitable processor. Yes, it only takes me 5 minutes to use, but an hour to clean. Using my kitchen paring knife takes me 10 minutes so I am 55 minutes ahead of the game. Only get one if you knit a lot and are going to have a large volume of output. Otherwise take the time to enjoy the craft.

Do you have a question for Dear Miss Needles? Write to her at dearmissneedles@yahoo.com of in care of this paper.

Adams County Senior Citizens Lion or Lamb? Have you ever wondered how this “legend” came to be? According to Farmers Almanac, this may have started when many who believed in spirits and balance thought that it only made sense if March entered with chaotic weather that it would have to end with calm weather in order to create a perfect balance in the universe.

However, the sheer fact of unstable weather in Spring–the end of winter could represent “bad weather” at the beginning of March, and by the end of March we are further into Spring for “good weather”–often makes the “In like a lion, out like a lamb” saying seem true. I, for one, am hoping it’s true this year, and warmer weather will be here soon!

Spring ahead time has come again. Just a reminder that on Sunday, March 10th clocks need to be set ahead 1 hour. While you are at it, why not change the batteries in your smoke alarms, it’s a good time to remember that you changed them as well as help keep you safe!

Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day One of my favorite months is here! It’s March, so that means it is National Nutrition Month! As part of National Nutrition Month, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (formerly the American Dietetic Association) and nutrition and health professionals across the United States encourage Americans to return to the basics of healthy eating.

This year’s theme for National Nutrition Month is “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day.” The theme really speaks to the fact that although there are many recommendations out there about “the best foods to eat,” it really does come down to the individual.

There is no one “cookie-cutter” diet plan that fits everyone’s needs. We all enjoy different types of foods with different preparation techniques. We have unique food preferences, lifestyles, cultural and ethnic traditions, and health concerns. These all play a significant role in our eating habits.

The theme of “Eat Right, Your Way, Every Day,” encourages us to include the foods we enjoy as part of a healthful eating plan. With healthy eating, it is important to remember that it is more important to balance the intake of food and beverages with our energy needs instead of put all the emphasis on any one food or meal. According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “the total diet or overall pattern of food eaten is the most important focus of healthy eating. Most favorite foods can fit within this pattern, if consumed in moderation with appropriate portion size and combined with physical activity.”

To learn more about healthy eating and National Nutrition Month, visit the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics website at www.eatright.org.

A useful tool that appears on this website is the “How

Do I…?” videos. These are short videos that show how to cut or prepare various foods (ex. how to cut an onion without crying, mince garlic, flip a pancake, or broil fish).

Although nutrition is near and dear to my heart, there are many other aspects of health that are integral in keeping you well. Taking measures to minimize sun damage to the skin, engaging in physical activity, getting regular check-ups with your healthcare provider, reducing or managing stress, and refraining from smoking also contribute to health and well-being. In addition to your efforts to Amy L. Habig Extension Educator, improve your nutritional habits during National Family and Nutrition Month, be Consumer Sciences mindful of all the other Ohio State things you are doing (and University Extension can do!) to obtain opti- Adams, Brown and mum health.

Guest speaker for this year’s event will be Dr. Doris Charles who will address breaking through the gender barrier in the medical field. The 2013 Women’s Tea will honor Becky Cropper for her work with the OSU Extension Office and the Gear Up program.

Both women exemplify the 2013 theme: Women Inspiring Innovation Through Imagination: Celebrating Women in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).

“I think this year’s tea will be an inspiration to young women considering a STEM field as their life’s work,” said Carissa Thatcher, event coordinator. “This will truly be a memorable experience.”
