Grandpa welcomes 100th great-grandchild to the family Kathy Leese

INSIDE TODAY

www.sidneydailynews.com

RUSSIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Not too many greatgrandparents can claim to have 100 great-grandchildren, but Marion Grillot of 3666 Russia Road can do that, and his late wife, Emily, was looking forward to the birth of their latest and 100th great-grandchild.

Grillot is undaunted by the sounds of all the patters of little feet, or the bigger ones for that matter, since he has 20 children of his own.

Elizabeth Emily Bergman, whose middle name is in honor of her late great-grandmother, was born in June to Tim and Lori (Meier) Bergman, of Versailles. She is the granddaughter of Elaine (Grillot) and Greg Bergman, of Versailles.

She became the 100th great-grandchild of Marion and the late Emily Grillot.

Grillot, 91, whose oldest greatgrandchild is Ellen Haney, 20, the daughter of Scott and Karen Haney and the granddaughter of Sharon (Grillot) and Joe Morelock, of Piqua, not only has all of those great-grandchildren, but is a grandfather to 76 grandchildren. In fact, when he and his late wife would get together with their immediate family, there would be approximately 260 members present, including in-laws. They would have to rent a hall, since they do not all fit in a house. The Grillots lost a son, Philip, last year.

The Grillotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; oldest grandchild is Sherry Pinnell, 42, of Westchester.

She is the daughter of Jane (Grillot) Laloge, of Piqua, and Mike Francis, of Middletown. Their youngest

grandchild is Samantha Bell, 7, the daughter of Beth Bell, of Russia, and Russ Bell, who resides in Kentucky.

But the Russia man says even though he has all of those grandchildren and great-grandchildren, the addition of the 100th great-child is â&#x20AC;&#x153;the same as the firstâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he loves them all, as his wife did when she was living. She passed away on Feb. 1 on her birthday at the age of 85. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My wife and I enjoyed holding the oldest as much as we enjoyed holding the youngest and each one in between,â&#x20AC;? Grillot said.

Grillot is now anticipating the arrivals of six more great-grandchildren this year and in January.

He noted that his wife â&#x20AC;&#x153;was as excited as I was to have the 100thâ&#x20AC;? great-grandchild. The Grillots celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary on May 3, 2012.

Emily Grillot would make each great-grandchild three baby blankets, and now her oldest daughter, Jane, has taken over the role.

Grillot is used to some special media attention, having been featured with his family of 20 in National Geographic magazine in the February 2006 edition. It was while on a trip to Chile that Grillot talked with someone who then told the magazine about the family.

His daughter Carolyn Grillot Eilerman said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dad and my brother, Jim, went to Chile in 2005. Dad gave them his sewing machine that sewed leather and boxes of leather goods. They spent four weeks there educating the people how to sew.â&#x20AC;?

After the trip, the magazine See GRANDPA | 11A

ELLEN HANEY, 20, the oldest great-grandchild of Marion and the late Emily Grillot, stands by her great-grandfather as he holds his 100th and youngest great-grandchild, Elizabeth Emily Bergman, 1 month old. She is the daughter of Tim and Lori Bergman and granddaughter of Elaine (Grillot) and Greg Bergman, all of Versailles. Haney is the daughter of Scott and Karen Haney and the granddaughter of Sharon (Grillot) and Joe Morelock, all of Piqua. Marion is also holding a picture of himself and his late wife Emily, who passed away on Feb. 1.

Freshway Foods: Court date set for oral arguments

Three weeks to go: BOE receives update on levy progress Melanie Speicher mspeicher@civitasmedia.com

With just three weeks to go until the August special election, the Sidney City Schools Board of Education learned Monday night that the campaign to pass a 1 percent income tax levy for the district is going strong.

Superintendent John Scheu, who just returned from vacation, told the board, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is refreshing to see all the levy signs around Sidney. Three weeks from now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find out how the voters feel.â&#x20AC;?

Renee Davis, one of the levy co-chairmen, updated the board on the steering committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work since the last board of education meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Postcard mailers have been sent to all district residents,â&#x20AC;? said Davis.

She also reported levy signs are available at the board of education office and from any steering committee member.

Davis said they continue to receive positive remarks about the question of the week, which has been published in the Sidney Daily

Patricia Ann Speelman

News. The committee is also planning to run an ad in the July 22 issue of the newspaper to show the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voters that the targets for this levy have been hit.

Ads will also be airing on Hits 105.5, she said. Six different ads will be airing on a rotating basis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The positive voter callers have been completed,â&#x20AC;? said Davis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the responses they received were positive.â&#x20AC;?

A date for presentation of oral arguments has been set by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in a case brought by the Amercian Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) on behalf of Freshway Foods and Freshway Logistics, of Sidney, against the federal Health and Human Services (HHS), Labor and Treasury departments in January.

Lawyers with the ACLJ will present arguments on Sept. 24 in support of their suit challenging part of the HHS health care act known as Obamacare.

OHIO NEWS BRIEFS TWINKIES ARE shown Monday in Gilbert, Ariz. The world’s largest retailer announced Friday that that they are making Twinkies available but asked retailers to wait until Monday to start selling the spongy yellow snack cakes.

The Twinkie’s triumphant return Janet Romaker The Toledo Blade

Talk about a feeding frenzy.

In a twinkling, customers are clearing store shelves of boxes of Twinkies, those iconic cakes filled with cream and rich in childhood memories.

Yes, they’re back.

And it’s about time, said several Twinkies fanatics, singing sweet praise to the Hostess with the Mostest.

“Twinkies, it’s why I came here,” said Sheryl Davis, 49, of Lambertville, as she clutched a box of Twinkies at a Walmart store on West Central Avenue in Toledo on Monday, the official launch date for the Big Comeback. “I knew Twinkies were coming out today. I have liked Twinkies since I was a kid.”

When the “say it isn’t so” news came months ago that production of Twinkies would cease, she purchased several boxes, but those didn’t last long, and oh, how she has missed those

golden sponge cakes.

Hostess Brands Inc. struggled for years before filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization in early 2012.

Workers blamed troubles on years of mismanagement and failure of executives to invest in brands to keep up with changing tastes. The company said it was weighed down by higher pension and medical costs than its competitors whose employees weren’t unionized.

Last November, plans to liquidate Hostess were announced, triggering a sugar rush. Stores sold out of Hostess snack cakes within hours; predictably, eBay bids started soon after.

Hostess sold off its brands in chunks to different buyers.

Metropoulos & Co. and Apollo bought Twinkies and other Hostess cakes for $410 million.

Boxes of Twinkies proclaim the return as “The Sweetest Comeback In The History of Ever.”

And some boxes could be collector items.

Through an agreement

with Hostess, Walmart is selling exclusively designed boxes, featuring a First Batch goldand-red ribbon, situated near Twinkie the Kid who gives a “Howdy there” wave from atop a cream-filled cake.

Although larger stores, such as Kroger, Meijer, and Walmart, are already selling Twinkies, several other Toledo area stores have not yet received shipments.

At Walt Churchill’s Market in Maumee, the classic cakes are expected to arrive today, said Kunal Dawar, assistant store manager/grocery manager. Although the store ordered extras, the product had been an offand-on seller, perhaps, he said, because the market tends to draw health-conscious customers who shy away from cakes packed with calories (270 per serving) and carbs (46g).

At Kroger on Monroe Street, a few boxes of Hostess snack cakes remained in the store; another shipment was to arrive Monday night, a store employee said.

Spongy treat may be smaller than people recall Candice Choi AP Food Industry Writer

NEW YORK (AP) Twinkies are back, but they may be a bit smaller than you remember.

The new boxes hitting shelves this week list the spongy yellow cakes as having 270 calories and a weight of 77 grams for two cakes, or 135 calories and 38.5 grams for one cake.

Right before it went out of business, the predecessor company had told The Associated Press that Twinkies were 150 calories per cake. Photos of past boxes online also indicate the weight to have been 42.5 grams per cake.

A spokeswoman for Hostess, Hannah Arnold, said in an email Monday that the size change was made in “mid-2012” by the predecessor company. That would mean it happened in the months leading up to its bankruptcy, as the company was trying to keep its head above water financially.

Senate approves Cordray nomination David Espo AP Special Correspondent

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate stepped away from the brink of a meltdown on Tuesday, confirming one of President Barack Obama’s long-stalled nominees, agreeing to quick action on others and finessing a Democratic threat to overturn historic rules that protect minority-party rights.

“Nobody wants to come to Armageddon here,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat whose talks with Arizona Republican John McCain were critical in avoiding a collision that had threatened to plunge the Senate even deeper into partisan gridlock.

McCain, a veteran of uncounted legislative struggles, told reporters that forging the deal was “probably the hardest thing I’ve been involved in.”

The White House reaped the first fruits of the deal within hours, when Richard Cordray’s nomination to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was approved 66-34. He was

first nominated in July 2011 and has been in office by virtue of a recess appointment that bypassed the Senate.

As part of the Tuesday’s agreement, both parties preserved their rights to resume combat over nominations in the future, Republicans by delaying votes and Democrats by threatening once again to change the rules governing such delays.

Still, officials in both parties said they hoped the deal would signal a new, less acrimonious time for the Senate, with critical decisions ahead on spending, the government’s borrowing authority, student loan interest rates and more.

Under the agreement, several of seven stalled nominees would win confirmation later in the week, including Labor Secretary-designate Tom Perez; Gina McCarthy, named to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, and Fred Hochberg to head of the ExportImport Bank.

Even before the agreement was ratified by the rank and file, Cordray’s long-stalled nomination to head the

Consumer Finance Protection Bureau advanced toward approval on a test vote of 71-29, far more than the 60 required.

Two nominees to the National Labor Relations Board, Richard Griffin and Sharon Clark, are to be replaced by new selections, submitted quickly by Obama and steered toward speedy consideration by Senate Republicans.

Obama installed Griffin and Clark in their posts by recess appointments in 2011, bypassing the Senate but triggering a legal challenge. An appeals court recently said the two appointments were invalid, and the Supreme Court has agreed to review the case.

In their places, officials said Obama intends to nominate Nancy Schiffer, a former top lawyer for the AFLCIO, and Kent Hirozawa, counsel to NLRB Chairman Mark Pearce. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said their appointments would be reviewed and voted on in committee on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, and then come before the Senate for confirmation.

Board rejects clemency for condemned killer Andrew Welsh-Higgins AP Legal Affairs Writer

she was watching were in the house.

“The egregious nature of Slagle’s crime and circumstances surrounding it outweigh the mitigation present here,” the parole board wrote in Tuesday’s ruling, which called the slaying “unprovoked, merciless, and completely senseless.”

McGinty said he respected the board’s decision.

“We will continue to make our position known to Gov. John Kasich as he weighs one of the most difficult decisions that any governor must make,” the prosecutor said in a statement.

Attorneys for Slagle, 44, have long argued his sentence should be commuted to life without parole, citing his age at 18, he

40295751

COLUMBUS (AP) A condemned Cleveland killer moved one step closer to execution Tuesday despite a rare plea for mercy from the prosecutor overseeing his case.

The Ohio Parole Board voted 6-4 to turn down a request for clemency for death row inmate Billy Slagle, sentenced to die for stabbing a neighbor 17 times almost three decades ago.

The board ruled unanimously against clemency

two years ago for Slagle, but that was before the election of new Cuyahoga County prosecutor Tim McGinty and a change in his office’s approach to capital punishment.

McGinty, who is applying new criteria to both old and new death penalty cases, has said he doesn’t believe his office could obtain a death sentence for Slagle today. McGinty is pushing for life without parole, arguing that without that option in 1987, jurors trying to ensure that Slagle would never go free chose the only option before them: a death sentence.

Slagle was convicted in the death that year of Mari Anne Pope, who was killed while two young children

40298465

was the minimum age for execution in Ohio when the crime happened and a long history of drug and alcohol abuse.

“Billy was exposed to alcohol from the womb to the crime,” Joe Wilhelm, a federal public defender, said at a hearing this month.

The parole board members who supported clemency cited McGinty’s change of position, with one noting that Slagle’s “age and immaturity at the time of offense significantly mitigate his sentence.”

In 1996, Ohio law changed to allow jurors to choose between execution and life without parole. In 2005, lawmakers added a provision allowing prosecutors to pursue life without parole in non-death penalty cases.

“Slagle’s case is a close call,” Cuyahoga County assistant prosecutor Matthew Meyer told the parole board at the hearing. “We can’t in confidence tell you that had it happened today, this would be a death case.”

Meyer said the recommendation for mercy was not meant to diminish the heinous facts of Pope’s death.

COLUMBUS (AP) Forecasters say the heat index could climb into the triple digits in some parts of Ohio as hot and steamy weather covers the state.

The National Weather Service in Wilmington says temperatures will be in the lower 90s throughout the day. The heat index will be in the upper 90s, possibly reaching 100 in some areas.

The hottest weather so far this summer is expected to last through Friday. Ohioans will get a slight relief from the blistering temperatures when a cold front comes through on Saturday.

The sweltering temperatures Tuesday forced the IRS office in Dayton to close after experiencing air-conditioning issues.

The weather service is reminding people to never leave children and pets unattended in a car, especially in extreme weather.

Ohio internet-cafe petitioners claim harassment COLUMBUS (AP) People collecting signatures on a petition aiming to block an Internet cafe law are saying they have been harassed by their opponents.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that the Committee to Protect Ohio Jobs says petition workers have recently filed police reports in Cleveland, Columbus and Toledo alleging they have been threatened by individuals hired by casino stakeholders who don’t want to see a ballot referendum on Internet cafes.

Signature collectors reported that opponents have “physically blocked people who were considering the petition.”

The law at stake severely limits casino-style games offered by Internet cafes.

Those interested in blocking the law must gather slightly more than 230,000 valid signatures by early September.

A Franklin County magistrate authorized a civil stalking protection order Friday in a related incident.

Ohio State presidential search panel to begin work COLUMBUS (AP) The search for Ohio State University’s next president will formally begin Friday with the first meeting of a search committee that includes trustees, faculty and students.

The next leader succeeds Gordon Gee (ghee), who retired July 1 after apologizing for earlier remarks jabbing Notre Dame, Roman Catholics and Southeastern Conference schools.

Ohio State says the search committee will be led by trustee Jeffrey Wadsworth, CEO of Columbus-based research giant Battelle Memorial Institute.

The panel includes five trustees who will make a recommendation to the larger board. A subcommittee of faculty, administrators and student leaders will offer input, and an executive search firm is expected to have a role in the process.

A planned discussion of characteristics of a modern university leader will coincide with the board’s meeting in late August.

Ohio man acquitted of dog-shooting charges CINCINNATI (AP) A southwest Ohio man has been acquitted of charges in the shooting death of a dog that was attacking his pet in a Cincinnati park.

A Hamilton County judge found 75-year-old Robert Marx not guilty Monday of criminal endangering and other counts from the April 2 shooting at Doris Day Dog Park. Marx said he had no choice after he, the pit bull’s owner and others tried unsuccessfully to pull it off his smaller terrier-mix dog.

Ohio Lottery records record profits again CLEVELAND (AP) The Ohio Lottery saw an eighth straight year of record profits, getting a boost from slots-like video terminals at two racinos and interactive games played by tavern patrons, according to a report from the lottery commission.

The commission on Monday reported that profits for the year ending June 30 were more than $803 million, up from $771 million in the previous fiscal year. The profits go to public education in the state.

Sales of traditional lottery games fell 1.4 percent, including the Pick 3 and Pick 4 number games, and instant scratch-off tickets.

Sales of Pick 3 and Pick 4 tickets, both big sellers, dropped 3.5 percent and 8.7 percent. Instant tickets, which account for more than half of sales, were down more than 5 percent. However, sales of traditional lottery games were better than officials had projected.

Traditional lottery games may have been affected by racinos combined race tracks and casinos and four casinos that opened in the state in Cleveland, Toledo, Columbus and Cincinnati over the last year, according to The

(Cleveland) Plain Dealer (http://bit.ly/13MisRS ), which reported the numbers Tuesday.

Scioto Downs in Columbus turned into a racino at the start of the fiscal year, and ThistleDown near Cleveland followed on April 9. The lottery, which collects a 33.3 percent tax on video slots revenue, received a total of more than $55 million from the tracks before June 30.

Five more tracks will add the slots terminals, and the lottery expects to receive $3 million a month from each location. New tracks are under construction in the Youngstown and Dayton areas and north of Cincinnati.

Tavern games Keno and EZPlay also helped boost lottery profits last year, officials said.

State officials have asked lottery Director Dennis Berg to draft a plan for keeping the lottery strong. He said he wouldn’t rule out joining the trend toward offering online casino games.

Berg has said sales of traditional lottery games have also been hurt by changes in shopping habits, with more people going to big-box stores and other places that don’t typically offer lottery games.

Nation/World TODAY IN HISTORY

By The Associated Press

Today is Wednesday, July 17, the 198th day of 2013.

There are 167 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 17, 1918, Russia’s Czar Nicholas II and his family were executed by the Bolsheviks.

On this date: In 1763, American entrepreneur John Jacob Astor was born in Walldorf in presentday Germany.

In 1821, Spain ceded Florida to the United States.

In 1862, during the Civil War, Congress approved the Second Confiscation Act, which declared that all slaves taking refuge behind Union lines were to be set free.

In 1936, the Spanish Civil War began as right-wing army generals launched a coup attempt against the Second Spanish Republic.

In 1938, aviator Douglas Corrigan took off from New York, saying he was headed for California; he ended up in Ireland, supposedly by accident, earning the nickname “Wrong Way Corrigan.”

In 1944, during World War II, 320 men, two-thirds of them African-Americans, were killed when a pair of ammunition ships exploded at the Port Chicago Naval Magazine in California.

In 1955, Disneyland had its opening day in Anaheim, Calif.

In 1962, the United States conducted its last atmospheric nuclear test to date, detonating a 20-kiloton device, codenamed Little Feller I, at the Nevada Test Site.

In 1975, an Apollo spaceship docked with a Soyuz spacecraft in orbit in the first superpower link-up of its kind.

In 1981, 114 people were killed when a pair of suspended walkways above the lobby of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency Hotel collapsed during a tea dance.

In 1996, TWA Flight 800, a Europe-bound Boeing 747, exploded and crashed off Long Island, N.Y., shortly after leaving John F. Kennedy International Airport, killing all 230 people aboard.

In 1998, Nicholas II, last of the Romanov czars, was formally buried in Russia 80 years after he and his family were slain by the Bolsheviks.

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair forcefully defended their decision to topple Saddam Hussein during a joint White House news conference. In a speech to the U.S. Congress, Blair said even if they were proven wrong about Iraq’s weapons capabilities, “We will have destroyed a threat that at its least is responsible for inhuman carnage and suffering.”

Democrats Joe Lieberman, Dick Gephardt and Dennis Kucinich apologized to the NAACP for bypassing a presidential forum.

Five years ago: The FDA lifted its salmonella warning on tomatoes amid signs the record outbreak, while not over, might finally be slowing.

President George W. Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri alMaliki (NOO’-ree ahl-MAHL’ih-kee) held a secure video conference during which they agreed to set a “general time horizon” for bringing more U.S. troops home from the Iraq war.

OUT OF THE BLUE

Hotdogs used to rescue dog VANCOUVER, Wash.

(AP) — An animal control officer equipped with hotdog bits has managed to rescue a 15-pound dog that somehow found itself stuck on the roof of a Vancouver, Wash., area house.

Homeowner Barry Klettke says he was backing out of his driveway Monday morning with his own dog, Bella, in the passenger seat when Bella growled.

He tells The Columbian he looked up to see what she saw and there was the dog on his roof. He called 911.

Clark County animal control officer Patrick Higbie says he’s responded to calls involving birds stuck on roofs but never a dog. The Chihuahua mix was taken to the Humane Society for Southwest Washington.

Egypt Cabinet has women, Christians; no Islamists Hamza Hendawi Associated Press

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s interim leader swore in a Cabinet on Tuesday that included women and Christians but no Islamists as the militarybacked administration moved swiftly to formalize the new political order and present a more liberal face that is markedly at odds with the deposed president and his supporters.

The changes came at a time of deep polarization and violence in Egypt, including new clashes that killed seven people as part of the continuing bloodshed that has marked the days following the armed forces coup that swept President Mohammed Morsi from office and cracked down on the Muslim Brotherhood.

Egypt’s military already wields great influence behind the scenes, and the army chief, Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, who ousted Morsi on July 3, was given a promotion in the Cabinet. He became a first deputy prime minister in addition to keeping his post as defense minister.

For most of the two years since the overthrow of auto-

crat Hosni Mubarak, the country has been split into two camps — one led by Morsi, his Muslim Brotherhood and its Islamist allies, and another led by secular Egyptians, liberals, Christians and moderate Muslims.

The fault lines remain, except that the Islamist camp is no longer in power. It does not include members of any Islamist parties — a sign of the enduring division that follows the removal of Morsi, Egypt’s first freely elected president.

The interim president’s spokesman had earlier said posts would be offered to the Muslim Brotherhood, but the group promptly refused, saying it would not take part in the military-backed political process and would continue protests until the legitimately elected Morsi is reinstated.

“We refuse to even discuss it,” a senior official of the Muslim Brotherhood’s political arm, the Freedom and Justice party, told The Associated Press. “What is built on illegitimacy is illegal,” he said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media before

the party issued a formal statement on the formation of the Cabinet.

The only Islamist party that supported Morsi’s ouster — the ultraconservative Salafi el-Nour party — was not represented and criticized the leadership as “biased,” lacking inclusion and repeating “the same mistake the last government was blamed for.”

U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said he had talked with el-Sissi about 10 times in the past week.

“We have encouraged publicly and privately the leaders of Egypt, including the interim president, the interim vice president, and the prime minister in particular, to be inclusive, to bring all political parties in, to allow them to participate in the writing of the constitution and the elections,” Hagel told reporters in Florida. “That’s the only way it will work. We’ve been very clear on that.”

Prime Minister Hazem elBeblawi, an economist in his 70s, leads the government of 33 other ministers. Sworn in by interim President Adly Mansour, it reflected the largely liberal, secular bent of the

factions who brought millions into the streets at the end of June calling for Morsi to step down and backed el-Sissi’s removal of the president.

Women have a somewhat higher profile in the government, with three ministries — including the powerful information and health ministries.

Most past governments for decades have had at most only two women.

The Cabinet also includes three Christians, including one of the three women, Environment Minister Laila Rashed Iskander. That is also a first, since successive governments had no more than one or two Christians.

Interior Minister Mohammed Ibrahim, appointed by Morsi, remains in his post, which oversees the police. Nabil Fahmy, who was Egypt’s ambassador to the U.S. from 1999-2008 and a nuclear disarmament expert, becomes foreign minister.

In a nod to the revolutionary youth groups that engineered the 2011 uprising and this year’s massive protests, Mansour renamed the Justice portfolio the Transitional Justice and National

IN THIS Friday file photo, Michigan City police and firefighters dig with shovels to rescue Nathan Woessner, of Sterling, Ill., who was trapped for more than three hours under about 11 feet of sand at Mount Baldy dune near Michigan City, Ind. On Monday, the doctor, who helped treat the 6-year-old boy, says the child is expected to make a full neurological recovery.

Sand dune rescue ‘a miracle’ Don Babwin and Tammy Webber Associated Press

CHICAGO (AP) — One minute, 6-year-old Nathan Woessner was scampering up a massive dune in northern Indiana with his dad and a friend. He was gone the next, without a warning or sound.

More than three hours later, rescuers pulled Nathan out from under 11 feet of sand on Friday. He showed no signs of life: He was cold to the touch, had no pulse and wasn’t breathing. His limp body was put into the back of a pickup truck, which started toward a waiting ambulance.

The plan was to take him to the hospital rather than the coroner’s office, even if he was dead, in order to “give the family and rescue workers hope,” La Porte (Ind.) County Chief Deputy Coroner Mark Huffman said Monday.

As the truck bounced over the dune, a medic noticed something astonishing: The boy took a breath. Then, a cut on his head started bleeding.

The jolt apparently shocked Nathan’s body back to life,

MOSCOW (AP) — National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden on Tuesday submitted a request for temporary asylum in Russia, his lawyer said, claiming he faces persecution from the U.S. government and could face torture or death.

WikiLeaks, the secret-spilling site that has been advising Snowden, and Russia’s Federal Migration Service both confirmed the application request. The service is required by law to consider the application within three months, but could do it faster.

Snowden, who revealed details of a U.S. intelligence program to monitor Internet activity, argued in his application that the reason he needs asylum is “he faces persecution by the U.S. government and he fears for his life and safety, fears that he could be subjected to torture and capital punishment,” lawyer Anatoly Kucherena said on Rossiya 24 television.

Kucherena told The Associated Press that he met the former NSA systems analyst in the transit zone of Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport to give him legal advice and that Snowden made the request after the meeting.

Snowden has been stuck there since he arrived on a flight from Hong Kong on June 23. He’s had offers of asylum from Venezuela, Nicaragua and Bolivia, but because his U.S. passport has been revoked, the logistics of reaching whichever country he chooses are complicated.

He said Friday at an airport meeting with Russian rights activists and public figures, including Kucherena, that he would seek at least temporary refuge in Russia until he could fly to one of the Latin American nations that have offered him asylum.

Health law’s rule delay could hamper enforcement Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — There’s a bit of a domino effect undercutting President Barack Obama’s health care law.

Enforcement of the overhaul’s central mandate — that individual Americans must have coverage — could be weakened by the Obama administration’s recent delay of a requirement that larger employers provide medical insurance.

That’s because the delayed rule also required companies to report health insurance details for employees. Without employers validating who’s covered, a scofflaw could lie, and the government would have no easy way to check.

The Treasury Department said Tuesday it expects any

impact to be minor, since most people will not risk telling the government a lie. Still, it’s another incentive for uninsured people to ignore a new government requirement that for many will cost hundreds of dollars.

“If Americans begin to figure out that the individual requirement is toothless for 2014 … younger, healthier uninsured people will stay away in droves,” said Edward Fensholt, director of compliance services for the Lockton Companies, a benefits consulting firm that advises employers. With fewer healthy people in the pool, premiums in new health insurance markets coming this fall could rise.

The latest twist emerged a day ahead of votes in the Republican-led U.S. House to delay both the individual

and employer mandates. The House measures, which have little chance of advancing in the Senate, are part of a series of Republican attempts to repeal or defund “Obamacare.”

The administration declined to address the new enforcement concerns on the record.

Instead, a senior Treasury official, commenting on condition of anonymity, said it’s only a hypothetical problem and the administration does not believe a significant number of people will choose to flout the law. After all, most Americans truthfully report their annual income to the Internal Revenue Service, said the official, who spoke only on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to comment publicly by name. However, most people know the IRS already

has the income information from their employers on W-2 forms.

Coverage for the uninsured through President Barack Obama’s health care law starts next Jan.1. Middle-class people with no access to job-based health insurance will be able to buy subsidized private coverage through new online markets that open for enrollment Oct. 1. Low-income people will be steered to an expanded version of Medicaid, in states accepting it.

The individual requirement that most Americans carry health insurance also takes effect in 2014, when insurers will no longer be allowed to turn away people in poor health. The mandate narrowly survived a Supreme Court challenge last year.

Art teacher opts for new medium: retirement Hayden Fisher

Hatton

FORT LORAMIE — Terry Hatton recently retired as an art teacher in the Fort Loramie Local Schools.

She spent the last 23 of her 30 years in education at Fort Loramie. Before that, she worked two years in the Hardin-Houston Local Schools, three years at the Ckbb_di IY^eeb :_ijh_Yj _d Mullins, S.C., and her first two years in the Hazard City

Schools in Hazard, N.Y. She has taught all grades, from kindergarten to high school seniors.

Hatton was born in Kentucky and raised in Ohio.

“My mom was a teacher and my dad is an artist, so I made both parents very happy when I decided to become an art teacher,” she notes.

She is a divorced mother of one daughter, Kaitlin, who graduated from high school this year and is planning on

majoring in commercial photography at Ohio University in the fall.

When asked about her career highlights, Hatton responded: “In 2010, Mrs. Arnold and I took a group of students to New York City for a four-day art and literature field trip.

This trip was an amazing four days jam-packed with fun, art, literature, culture, food and sightseeing, and the group of students and chaperones that

went on the trip were totally awesome. Truly a highlight of my career.”

Hatton couldn’t put a finger on a favorite student over the years but did recall many humorous situations while she was teaching. She believes humor is important among students. Hatton said she especially enjoyed watching her students come to love and appreciate art and to look at the world through creative eyes.

Choice One Engineering named a Best Firm to Work For Choice One Engineering, a civil engineering and surveying firm based in Sidney and Loveland, was named one of the nation’s Best Firms to Work For by ZweigWhite, publisher of CE News.

“We are incredibly excited,” said Tony Schroeder, company president. “This was our first time being listed as a Best Firms to Work For, and to place on the list was a real testament to the incredible dedication of our employees to create and maintain a unique company culture.”

Loveland Vice President Matt Hoying, along with Funding If[Y_Wb_ij%9b_[dj H[bWj_edi h[fh[i[djWj_l[ AWo[ 8ehY^[hi" traveled to Chicago June 20-21 to attend the annual Best Firms to Work For conference and to accept the award.

“The conference was great,”

stated Hoying. “We met so many dedicated engineering and architectural firm leaders who are creating fun, vibrant places to work within the engineering industry. So often there is a stereotype of engineers as ‘suit and tie’ or ‘black and white,’ and this conference and award proves there are real benefits to putting forth the effort to break out of that mold. Choice One has created an exceptional company culture that includes a lot of fun, laughter and hard work. I’m proud to celebrate this award with our firm. Our employees deserve to be recognized for their remarkable efforts to make our organization a great place to work.”

Twenty-five finalists were chosen by ZweigWhite and invited to the conference and awards presentation. Choice

One Engineering was awarded the Number Four Best Firm to Work For award. Other civil engineering firms in the top five included firms from AWdiWi" >WmW__" WdZ =[eh]_W$ According to a press release

by ZweigWhite, the Best Firms To Work For list began in 2001. Since then, “hundreds of outstanding architecture, engineering, and environmental consulting firms have been recognized for their ability to inspire their teams to perform at the highest levels. These firms create an environment where their people feel valued, can make a difference, and can clearly see their contribution to the overall mission and success of the firm.

The winners were announced and celebrated at the Best Firms To Work For Conference at The >WhZ HeYa >ej[b _d 9^_YW]e

June 20-21.

The conference was a time for those in the architecture, engineering, planning and environmental industry to acknowledge firms that have brought out the best in their people, and to share strategies, success stories, and industry news. Conference discussions and presentations focused on a variety of topics such as firm culture, open book management, training and development, and mentoring. A high point of the event was a festive awards reception that included cocktails, dinner and live music from a jazz ensemble.

Firms who applied for this prestigious ranking were evaluated comprehensively on firm culture, workplace practices, employee benefits, employee retention rates, professional development, and more – both from the management and

staff’s perspectives. Awards were given in the categories of architecture, civil engineering, structural engineering, environmental, and multi-discipline.”

“We still have a lot of work to do in our firm to make improvements,” said Hoying. “There are more ways to make our environment a better place to work, but we feel like we have a good foundation, and this conference has given us numerous ideas to consider implementing. We’re really looking forward to getting started on making our firm an even better place to work.”

With offices in Sidney and Loveland, Choice One Engineering provides civil engineering and surveying services to clients in western Ohio, eastern Indiana, and northern A[djkYao$

AAA Shelby County works with “Turbo” BBB says many sweepstakes are scams, but not always AAA Shelby County is teaming with DreamWorks Animation’s 3D racing comedy, “Turbo,” for a special public service announcement to promote the importance of safe driving.

The collaborative PSA complements a “Turbo” film integration, which features both the AAA IndyCar and AAA tow truck in DreamWorks Animation’s July 17 film. To kick off this alliance, AAA IndyCar driver Helio Castroneves and DreamWorks Animation’s racing snail, Turbo star together in the safe driving PSA. “We’re very excited to be involved with ‘Turbo,’ which will introduce a new generation to the thrill of IndyCar racing. We also see the PSA as a constructive means to deliver safe driving messages to key younger audiences,” said Deborah Barga of AAA Shelby County. “AAA is a wonderful on-screen tie-in for ‘Turbo,’ as our sponsorship of IndyCar racing and our association with drivers and advocacy on behalf of motorists makes us a natural

“Turbo” is a high-velocity 3D comedy about an ordinary snail who dares to dream big — and fast. After a freak accident miraculously gives him the power of super-speed, Turbo kicks his dreaming into overdrive and embarks on an extraordinary journey to achieve the seemingly impossible: competing in the Indianapolis 500. But not everyone thinks this mollusk has the muscle to make it to the winners circle, and it’s only with the help of his tricked-out streetwise snail crew that this ultimate underdog proves that no dream is too big, and no dreamer too small.

DAYTON — Scams hit the Miami Valley daily, including sweepstakes scams. The Better Business Bureau is contacted regularly by people who have received notifications claiming they have won prize money in sweepstakes.

The BBB warns consumers to be wary of most sweepstakes. Following this advice, one consumer from Alabama learned she actually was a sweepstakes winner when she turned to the BBB for help. The consumer received a call from Michigan Bulb, which is affiliated with Spring Hill Nursery in Tipp City, claiming she had won a sweepstakes. The caller claimed all she had to do to receive her prize was to fill out a W-9 form for tax purposes.

The BBB team checked it out and discovered the consumer truly was a winner.

Parent must listen and respond with wisdom DR. WALLACE: I am a single parent and that means I must be both mother and father to my daughter who is 9 months old. I’ve been reading your column for a long time, and I really respect your views.

Now I need some advice. Can you tell me the most important things that I should be aware of so I can be a good parent and raise a happy and well-adjusted daughter. —Mom, Baltimore, Md. MOM: Always express love to your daughter. Love given is almost always returned, stronger than ever. Love is all encompassing. It is compassion, trust, respect, affection, charity and devoted attachment, all rolled into one word.

Capture of Zetas leader unlikely to quell violence Michael Weissenstien and Olga R. Rodriguez Associated Press

MEXICO CITY (AP) — The capture of the notoriously brutal Zetas leader Miguel Angel Trevino Morales represents a serious blow to Mexico’s most feared drug cartel, but experts cautioned that taking down the group’s command structure is unlikely to diminish violence in the border states where it dominates through terror.

Trevino Morales, 40, was captured before dawn Monday by Mexican marines who intercepted a pickup truck with $2 million in cash in the countryside outside the border city of Nuevo Laredo, which has long served as the Zetas’ base of operations. The truck was halted by a marine helicopter, and Trevino Morales was taken into custody along with a bodyguard and an accountant and eight guns, government spokesman Eduardo Sanchez told reporters.

While in the U.S. Navy, he studied and became a personnel man. After being discharged, he held good jobs with several good companies. He enjoyed his work very much.

My son had smoked since his early teens. After a cough developed, he immediately quit smoking, but it was too late.

He was diagnosed with lung cancer, and we lost him two months later. Everything was going his way. He had a wonderful job, a new home and a terrific family, and he was too young to die.

Sadly, about 50 million Americans smoke and, according to the Department of Health and Human Services, smoking causes about 440,000 premature deaths a year. These are staggering statistics.

Special awards to be presented at Shelby County Fair As in previous years, special awards will be available for contestants who show their true mettle at the 2013 Shelby County Fair. Following is a list of special awards.

Lee H. Archer Memorial Award: A special award will be presented each year to the Shelby County Junior Fair Board Member who best exemplifies positive attitude, diligent leadership, selfless cooperation, quality citizenship and hard work toward the successful completion of the current Junior Fair.

Lee Archer was a charter member of the Shelby County Junior Fair Board who willingly contributed for many years to the youth of Shelby County through the atmosphere which the Junior Fair provides. He was a 4-H adviser for 20 years, working in the livestock sale ring at the fair for 25 years, and exhibited livestock at Shelby County Fair for more than 30 years.

This award is dedicated by Archer’s family toward the goal of inspiring others to strive for high levels of achievement through participation in activities such as the Shelby County Junior Fair Board. Selection will be made by a vote of the entire membership of the current Junior Fair Board.

Junior Fair Board “Rookie of the Year” Award: This award is to honor one first-year member of the Shelby County Junior Fair Board who

for at least the last 10 years, Frank and Phil Gilardi, owners of Freshway Foods and Freshway Logistics, have ensured that they do not pay for any contraceptive methods, including abortion-inducing drugs and sterilization procedures, in their employee health plan. The health care act does not exempt companies, based on faith, from complying with the entire law.

The ACLJ obtained an injunction in March that put on hold necessity to comply by the Gilardis and their firms until the law suit is settled. As the law stands now, noncompliance would result in $100-per-day-per-employee fines that would cost Freshway Foods and Freshway Logistics about $14.4 million per year.

from the committee will be at the polling places on election day in case a voter has a question. She stressed they will only be available in case a need arises.

The committee is also following up with mailings to people who requested absentee ballots, she said.

There are three presentations remaining that committee members will be giving to organizations in the community.

“Of the 15 levy campaigns I’ve been involved with, these three chairs are the hardest working group I’ve ever worked with,” said Scheu. “I’m keeping my fingers crossed for Aug. 6. We’ve been stating the facts about the levy. We’re asking the community to switch their focus from a property tax to an

displays dedication, determination, hard work, leadership, spirit and teamwork.

This award is dedicated by former Junior Fair Board member and president, Trena Hershberger, who is still active today, volunteering her time to support the development of the Junior Fair Board members.

This award is designed to challenge new members to excel and contribute as much as they can while learning the ropes of being a new board member. It is also intended to encourage increased participation by first-year members.

Selection criteria include: 1. First-year member. 2. Must attend 95 percent of all nonfair meetings. 3. Must attend 100 percent of required work sessions. 4. Displays the desire to accept challenges and challenging people. 5. Volunteers to make announcements during contests.

The selection will be made through a voting process of all Junior Fair Board members with more than one year of service on the board.

Lloyd Lutz Award: Criteria for this award are: 1. Contestant must be age 16 years or older. 2. Contestant must participate in the Junior Fair Dairy Show. 3. Participants will be judged on preparation for the exhibit, appearance and attitude, care of the exhibit and influence in encouraging fellow Junior Fair exhibitors.

income tax.”

As a precaution, in case the levy doesn’t pass, the board approved a resolution to proceed with the same levy on the Nov. 5 ballot. The time of the resolution, said Treasurer Mike Watkins, is required by the Ohio Revised Code.

And as the board waits for the voters to speak, they put some finishing touches on the staffing for the 2013-14 school year.

A two-year limited contract was given to Tamara Drerup as the special education supervisor effective Aug. 1.

She will be paid $74,231 per year. Drerup replaces Mary Conlon, who is resigning effective July 31. The board accepted Conlon’s resignation.

Doug Zimmer was hired as the new high

recipient is as follows: 1. A preliminary evaluation will be used to select the top five exhibitors.

2. Final voting will be done by the Junior Fair Dairy Show participants. 3. Voting will be done on the morning of the Junior Fair Gallon of Milk Sale and will be administered by two or more members of the Dairy Board. 4. The award will be presented during the Gallon of Milk Sale.

Swine Above and Beyond Award: These awards are sponsored by the Riethman family in memory of Frank Riethman, a lifelong partner hog farmer and promoter of the swine industry. Two awards will be presented annually at the Shelby County Fair during Swine Showmanship: one to a junior exhibitor, ages 8-13, and one to a senior exhibitor, ages 14-18 (all ages as of Jan. 1 of the current fair year). The awards will be presented to youth who have gone above and beyond their project requirements in an effort to improve their 4-H or FFA swine projects and promote and improve the swine industry. Award registration and essay are due by May 31. The essay is a short summary of what the member has done to improve the swine industry. An interview will be conducted by the Shelby County Pork Producers. Each 4-H/FFA chapter is encouraged to nominate two youth in each age group for these awards.

Martha Heintz Memorial

school assistant principal. Zimmer was given a two-year limited contract, effective Aug. 1. He will be paid $78,355 per year.

Bill Rippey was hired as a middle school math teacher. He was given a two-year limited contract at $52,181 per year.

R. Frank Guillozet was given a one-year limited supplemental contract as an OGT instructor for summer school at a rate of $25.29 per hour.

The board also hired: Kenna Chavez, MD aide, $12.18 per hour; Honey Drinnen, MD aide, $11.36 per hour; Dave Havenar, inschool suspension aide, $14.93 per hour; Valerie Schroer, MD aide, $12.54 per hour; Mira Stratton, MD aide, $11.36 per hour; and Jamie Whited, Sidney Alternative School aide, $11.36 per hour.

Awards: The Martha Heintz Memorial Award was established by the Shelby County Junior Fair Livestock Sale Committee and the Shelby County Junior Fair Board in recognition of the many years of service to the youth of Shelby County by Martha Heintz.

Heintz was treasurer of the Sale Committee for 10 years, establishing accounting and clerking procedures as well as assisting with virtually all the Sale Committee-related activities. In addition, she was an adviser of the Anna Livestock 4-H Club for 16 years.

Six awards are available each year, one to a junior exhibitor in each of the six livestock sale species: cattle, hogs, lambs, goats, chickens and rabbits.

Completed application forms are due to the extension office

by April 1. A maximum of six applicants per species will be interviewed by a team of Sale Committee members, who will select the winners. An individual may win this award in a specie for two consecutive years, and then is ineligible for one year, after that, an individual may win for two more years and so on.

Those selected will receive an individual plaque, which will be presented shortly before each of the market livestock championship drives. In addition, the recipients’ names will placed on a recognition panel in the livestock sale arena.

Supplemental contracts were given to Bill Rippey, junior varsity basketball coach, $3,727; Jennifer Wiford, varsity cheer adviser, $4,066; and Damon Smith, junior varsity soccer coach, $1,864.

The board accepted resignations from Monica Armstrong, middle school math teacher; Megan Beard, MD aide; Rhonda Fox, high school resource room teacher; Gaye Frey, substitute teacher; Many Gutman, musical codirector; Brittany Moore, choral music teacher and musical director; and Zach Watson, assistant bowling coach.

The board also approved the low bids through the Educational Purchasing cooperative and awarded contracts to Nickle’s Bakery, Reiter Dairy and Gordon Food Service.

A presentation on cur-

riculum, mapping and student results was presented by Brooke Gessler and Jill Hanke.

Watkins discussed the FY13 and how the district fared compared to projected figures. He said the expenditures for the year ended up being 2.66 percent less than what was projected. Because a higher number of staff retired at the end of the year, the severance and sick days paid to those employees was higher than anticipated.

The revenue was 4.3 percent better than what was forecast. He said the casino revenue and a higher amount received from the state foundation contributed to the higher revenue.

The board’s next meeting will be Aug. 19 at 5:30 p.m. at the board of education building.

Grandpa From page 1 wrote a story about the family. Grillot, who calls himself “very blessed” to have such a large family said, “God directed me to a very special girl who became my wife. We trusted in God for his support in raising our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, especially those with special needs.”

It is not uncommon to find the grandchildren, great-grandchildren or children running in the door to visit with Grillot or help him with his gardening.

Grillot worked for Pioneer Rural Electric and worked as a salesman as well as farming over the years. He likes to play cards, garden and read in addi-

tion to spending time with his family.

He was a Navy pilot in World War II. There are some challenges to being a grandfather with so many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Grillot joked, like, “finding room on the refrigerator for all of their artwork.” He enjoys all of the special times in their lives. “Going to all of their baptisms, birthdays, first Communions, confirmations and finally, their wedding days. Hearing all of them call me ‘Grandpa’ and my wife, ‘Grandma.’ ” Those are the things that Grillot treasures.

When asked about the secret to being a good grandfather, Grillot responded,

“just being yourself.” Eilerman said it is much more. “They (Marion and Emily) led by example and welcomed each new (family) member with open arms.”

Eilerman said her parents have never been ruffled by all of the children running around. “It was … part of having a big family.” She said her parents’ faith in God helped them deal with life’s challenges, including raising their large family. “With such a large family, there’s a lot of ups and downs — you need your faith (in God) to help guide you through.” Grillot is a member of St. Remy Catholic Church in Russia, where his wife was also a member.

Eilerman said even though her dad is 91 years old, he still attends the grandchildren’s and great-grandchildren’s activities as much as he can. “He tries to make it to their … baptisms, first Communions, birthday parties.”

There are some things that Grillot really enjoys about being a grandfather and great-grandfather.

“Just being a grandpa that cares and having all of my children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren around as my family,” he said. “My late wife, Emily, and I are truly blessed in having such a great family.”

For Thursday, July 18, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Satisfy your urge for a change of scenery by doing something different.

Go someplace you've never been before. Take a different route to or from work. Visit ethnic restaurants and talk to people from different backgrounds.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be careful with red-tape details regarding inheritances, shared property, taxes and debt. You will be focused on this today; however, wait until the afternoon to make important decisions.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Because the Moon is opposite your sign today, you will have to accommodate others. Be prepared to compromise and go more than halfway. (It's not a big deal.)

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Focus on getting better organized today. Make a to-do list, and start crossing things off. Get as much done as you can. You also might think of ways to improve your health.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is a playful day for you, so get out and enjoy yourself. Sports events, the arts, social occasions plus playful times with children will delight you.

(Romance can flourish.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Home, family and your domestic world will be your primary focus today. Perhaps a discussion with a parent will be significant. Cocoon at home if you can.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Today is busy with short trips, errands, conversations with siblings and many distractions. Fasten your seatbelt, and go with the flow.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Cash flow, money issues and shopping have your attention today. Postpone important financial matters (including purchases) until the afternoon.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You're a little bit luckier today because the Moon is in your sign. Why not ask universe for a favor? (You just might get it.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Work alone or behind the scenes today, because you need privacy to be productive. You also might need privacy just to feel relaxed and on top of your scene.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Conversations with a female acquaintance could be significant today. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with others to see with their feedback is.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Private details about your personal life might be public today, especially in the eyes of bosses, parents and VIPs. (Incidentally, this also includes the police.) Be aware.

YOU BORN TODAY You are intelligent, committed and serious about pursuing your goals. You're also idealistic and courageous. You are often a spokesperson for a group because you eloquently present their views. Freedom of expression is a strong value, and you will fight for this freedom for yourself and others. Work hard to build or construct something this year, because your rewards soon will follow.

said Anderson, who began organizing the event after his father, Dale Anderson, passed away in September 2002.

The cars are then judged by the contestants, by consensus of popular opinion, to determine a winner.

Anderson said there is no panel of judges that decides who wins.

Andersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend Al Saunders, who is showing two vintage cars in the show, weighs in on the judging process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every participant who chooses to vote chooses their favorite 10 or 15 cars,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and at the end of the day, whoever got the most votes wins.â&#x20AC;?

There are door prizes for the winners of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;best in showâ&#x20AC;? competition, and a 50/50 drawing.

In the past, Anderson has expected 60 to 100 participants in a wide variety of vehicular diversity: classic muscle cars, historically registered cars, old-time and modern cars also join the mix.

In scope, the event is an outlet for car enthusiasts to show their spectacular machines and for spectators to appreciate the creativity; to practice reverence for what some would call Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest invention.

IN BRIEF Muschamp jabs Ohio State for turning in Gators HOOVER, Ala. (AP) — Florida coach Will Muschamp says Ohio State did report the Gators for possible NCAA violations.

Muschamp told reporters at SEC Media Day no violations were found by the SEC or NCAA, and then he took a jab at Ohio State.

“And so we appreciated our friends from Ohio making sure we’re compliant with NCAA rules.

They certainly know a little bit about that subject,” he said, according to USA Today.

Ohio State was banned from the postseason last year for NCAA violations.

The Buckeyes reportedly turned in a Florida assistant for having contact with a recruit during an impermissible time and for a Gators player giving another recruit a ride to campus.

Ohio State coach Urban Meyer, Muschamp’s predecessor at Florida, has denied being directly involved in reporting Florida

Britton top golfer in annual Fridley junior golf tourney The annual Bob Fridley Junior Golf Tournament was held Monday at Shelby Oaks, with over 30 golfers from all over the county participating.

Alex Britton of New Bremen took low gross honors overall and for the 15-16-17 age division, with rounds of 36 and 41 for a 77. He will be a junior at New Bremen this fall.

Second low gross was Emily Knouff with an 85. She will be entering her freshman year at Fort Loramie.

In low net competition, Tyler Rogers was first with a 68 and Levi Schmitmeyer of Jackson Center was second

with a 69.

In the 13-14 age group, Zach Watren, who will be a freshman at Anna this fall, won low gross honors with an 89 on rounds of 44 and 45. Runnerup was Bryce Sosby of Jackson Center with 90 on identical rounds of 45.

Troy Rindler of Anna was low net with a 65 and runnerup was a tie between Craig Eilerman of Fort Loramie and Ryan Goettemoeller of Sidney, both with 72.

In the 10-11-12 age group, which played nine holes, Charlie Hale was low gross with a 48 and Simon Viglienti

of Troy was runner-up with a 55.

Isaac Rindler of Anna was low net with a 28 and Ethan Potts of Sidney second with a 31.

There were also putting and chipping contests held, and the Britton results of those are as follows: 15-16-17 division Putting contest — 1. Alex Britton 30 points; 2. Brady Wildermuth 14; 3. Emily Knouff 6.

Hoying continues to play well Fort Loramie’s Jared Hoying gets three days off due to the Class AAA All Star Game before the Pacific Coast League’s regular season resumes on Thursday as his Round Rock Express (Rangers) hosts the Iowa Cubs prior to a visit to Memphis.

Hoying continues to alternate between outfield positions but the acquisition of former big league star Manny Ramirez has eliminated

Hoying’s periodic use as a designated hitter for the time being. The 41-year-old Ramirez has regained some of his old form and could be promoted soon to the Rangers, whose regular DH, Lance Berkman, is on the disabled list.

Hoying’s numbers since joining the Express in early June are very solid. He has a current five game hitting streak and had an earlier streak of 11. In 30 games with

Round Rock, he’s 33-for104 for a .317 batting average while scoring 20 runs with three doubles, four triples, four homers, and two stolen bases.

The Express stands 54-44 at the mid-summer break, good for second place in the division.

They play a five-game set in Nashville beginning on Aug. 16, only 370 miles from Fort Loramie. — Dave Ross

WHAT YEAR WAS IT? Pete Rose is banned from baseball for gambling activities; Nolan Ryan strikes out his 5,000th hitter, Rickey Henderson; and a tragic earthquake strikes San Francisco just as the World Series is beginning. Several dozen people died in the Bay Area and the Series was postponed for 10 days. What year was it?

Answer: 1989

QUOTE OF THE DAY We’re definitely going to retire his number. I really feel strongly that he deserves it. (But) the timing has to be right.”

— Green Bay Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy, on retiring quarterback Brett Favre’s jersey.

ON THIS DATE IN 1941 — Joe DiMaggio’s hitting streak of 56 games is stopped

by Al Smith and Jim Bagby of the Indians before 67,000 at Cleveland.

1974 — Bob Gibson strikes out Cesar Geronimo of the Reds in the second inning to become the second pitcher in major league history to record 3,000 strikeouts.

1994 — Brazil wins a record fourth World Cup soccer title, taking the first shootout in championship game history over Italy.

2011 — Japan stuns the United States in a riveting Women’s World Cup final, winning 3-1 on penalty kicks after coming from behind twice in a 2-2 tie. Goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori makes two brilliant saves in the shootout. Japan, making its first appearance in the final of a major tournament, hadn’t beaten the Americans in their first 25 meetings.

Post 217 loses tourney opener 8-5 TROY — It looked like Sidney’s ability to take advantage of opportunities was going to pay dividends Tuesday in the opening round of the American Legion Baseball Tournament in Troy.

But the lack of hitting eventually caught up with Post 217 in an 8-5 loss to Piqua Post 184.

Sidney led 2-1 after five innings despite having just one hit over that span. Post

217 scored twice on what should have been a double play ball, and a suicide squeeze bunt by Treg Francis.

It stayed at 2-1 until the sixth, too, but Piqua broke through for four runs in the top of the inning, then came back with three more in the bottom of the seventh.

Sidney added a couple more runs, so going to the eighth inning, it was 8-4 with Piqua in the lead.

Sidney returns tonight to play the loser of the Troy-Lima game at 6 p.m. The winners of Tuesday’s games play tonight at 8:30. Both games will be at Duke Park in Troy.

Dalton Bollinger and Bailey Francis both had RBI singles for Post 217.

The winner of the tournament will advance to the State Legion Tournament in Lancaster.

AL leads All-Star Game after five innings NEW YORK (AP) — Matt Harvey and Max Scherzer dazzled, showing off pitching dominance that kept the All-Star game scoreless after three innings at Citi Field on Tuesday night.

But the American League was able to push across runs in the fourth and fifth innings to take a 2-0 lead into the bottom of the sixth.

The New York Mets, hosting baseball’s big summer event for the first time since 1964 at Shea Stadium, are known for strong arms, and Harvey already has become an elite pitcher less than a year into his major league career.

Mike Trout’s double leading off the game was the only hit in the first three innings, and he was stranded at second base.

In a season filled with injuries, the Yankees got a scare when Harvey hit Robinson Cano on the side of his right knee in the first inning, forcing him from the game. An X-ray was negative, and Cano was diag-

nosed with a bruised quadriceps that did not seem major.

“Just a little tight … but I’m walking good,” Cano said. “I’ll be good for Friday.”

Harvey struck out three in two innings and was followed

by Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, who retired three in a row.

Scherzer pitched a 1-2-3 first, and Chris Sale of the Chicago White Sox followed with two perfect innings.

The NL was seeking its fourth straight win — after losing the first seven games after Major League Baseball decided the winning league gets home-field advantage for the World Series.

The AL scored on a sacrifice fly by Jose Bautista in the fourth, scoring Miguel Cabrera.

An inning later, Adam Jones scored on a fielder’s choice.

The National League had just one hit after five innings.

Following a trend that began last summer in Kansas City,

many players wore flashy spikes they would never use during the regular season — bright orange high tops for Baltimore center fielder Adam Jones, black and gold for Arizona pitcher Patrick Corbin.

Harvey became just the third Mets pitcher to start an All-Star game, following Tom Seaver and Dwight Gooden.

Seaver threw out the ceremonial first pitch, moving in front of the rubber and tossing to current Mets captain David Wright, who quickly moved in front of the plate to prevent the ball from bouncing.

Harvey is only the 11th pitcher to start an All-Star game on his home mound, the first since Houston’s Roger Clemens in 2004. The 24-yearold has made just 29 major league starts, the fewest for an All-Star starter since Hideo Nomo with 13 in 1995.

He quickly got into trouble, with Mike Trout hitting an opposite-field double down the

right-field line with his first pitch, a 97 mph fastball. Two pitches later, Harvey drilled Cano on the side of the right knee with a 96 mph fastball.

Cano was examined by a trainer and walked gingerly to first base, and Harvey struck out Miguel Cabrera. Cano then walked slowly toward the AL dugout and went for an X-ray, which was negative. He was replaced by Dustin Pedroia.

“I tried to go in. That sometimes happens. I didn’t mean to, obviously,” Harvey said.

“I feel terrible. My apologies definitely go out to him.”

Harvey reached 99 mph against Chris Davis, who field out to center, and got Jose Bautista to strike out while chasing a slider.

Scherzer, 13-0 before Saturday’s loss to Texas, retired Brandon Phillips, Carlos Beltran and Joey Votto in order in the first, and then was replaced by Sale in the second.

Sidney Daily News, Wednesday, July 17, 2013

Haslam’s Pilot Flying J to repay trucking companies NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The truck-stop company owned

by Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam has agreed to pay back the trucking companies that were cheated out of fuel rebates, according to a settlement given preliminary approval Tuesday.

Under the agreement approved by a federal judge in Arkansas, Pilot Flying J would pay the companies what they are owed with interest.

Federal agents raided the Knoxville headquarters of Pilot Flying J earlier this year after an employee claimed the nation’s largest diesel retailer was systematically cheating its clients. Five employees have since pleaded guilty to federal charges.

Jimmy Halsam is the brother of Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, who has an undisclosed ownership share in the company.

Both have denied any wrongdoing, and the company didn’t acknowledge wrongdoing in the settlement.

Under the terms of the preliminary settlement, Pilot Flying J would pay all legal fees and other expenses. That includes the cost of auditing the accounts and then auditing the auditors.

IN THIS May 29 photo, Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam looks on during a news conference in Cleveland. The truck-stop chain owned by Haslam has agreed to pay back the trucking companies that were cheated out of fuel rebates. Federal agents raided the Knoxville headquarters of Pilot Flying J earlier this year after an employee claimed the company was systematically cheating its clients.

said the company expects the total number of customers who are owed money will be a relatively small percentage of Pilot’s more-than-4,000 customers. So far, 22 class-action lawsuits have been filed against Pilot Flying J, one of which was dismissed.

Eight of the suits are represented directly by Tuesday’s settlement. All other companies that participated in either Pilot’s rebate program or its discount program will be sent a notice informing them of the class-action settlement. If they choose to opt out of the settle-

ment, they could still sue separately.

“The advantage to them, if they choose to accept this, is that they get all their money back. They pay no legal fees and no administrative fees,” Pilot Flying J attorney Aubrey Harwell said. “It’s in keeping with what Jimmy Haslam committed to all along. He said, ‘We’re going to do this right.

They’re going to be paid quickly and fairly.’”

Jimmy Haslam said in a statement that the company is working to make things right with its customers.

“This is an unfortunate time for our customers and our company, but we remain committed to making things 100 percent right with our customers, to put systems in place to help ensure this does not happen again, and to re-earn our customers’ trust,” he said.

The lead attorney for the trucking companies, Don Barrett, said he expects the other companies to be “pleased to death” with the settlement because so many of them don’t know whether they are owed money or not. With the settlement, they will find out what they are owed and get that money back with 6 percent

interest accrued “from the minute they sent the check and it was less than it should have been,” Barrett said.

Barrett said the settlement offers customers the most complete relief he has seen in more than 40 years of practicing law, and he said much of that was due to Jimmy Halsam, “who stepped up to the plate and did the right thing.”

In a July 12 letter made public Monday, Haslam said Pilot had sent checks to trucking companies shorted on rebates.

He didn’t say how large the checks were or how many were being distributed.

Haslam said during a speech in May at an annual conference of truckers in Indianapolis that as many as 250 trucking companies might be owed money.

Pilot attorney Harwell said that it is impossible to know how much is owed until the audit is complete.

Pilot Flying J is the nation’s largest diesel retailer with annual revenues of around $30 billion.

Ingram said he expects the total settlement, while significant, to amount to a relatively small percentage of that revenue.

Sports at Shelby County Fair The events featuring horsepower are back again for this year’s Shelby County Fair, with the card much the same as in the past.

There will be plenty of chances to take in competition in front of the grandstands as the ATVs, tractors and cars and trucks return to the fairgrounds for their crowd-pleasing shows.

As it did last year, the Back-to-Back truck pull will kick things off on the first day of the fair, Sunday, at 1 p.m. in front of the grandstand. Fans should note that there is a $2 admission fee.

The Back-to-Back pull will feature three classes, 5,000 pounds, 6,500 pounds, and 9,000 pounds.

The event is a tug-o-war between two trucks.

They are hitched together, with a flag in the middle, and the object is to pull the other truck far enough for the flag to cross a pre-determined line.

That same day, four hours later, the annual Fair Demolition Derby will take place. There is also an extra $2 admission fee to the grandstands for that event, which usually attracts a large following.

Monday and Tuesday will be rather quiet at the track, but things get going again on Wednesday, first with the Antique Tractor Pull at 4 p.m., then the big Truck and Tractor Pull at 6 p.m.

Again, there is a $2 admission charged to both events.

The classes will include antique tractors, hot rod tractors, farm stock tractors, Buckeye Modified trucks, light pro stock tractors, pro stock trucks, pro stock pick-ups, and diesel pick-ups. The biggest purses are carried by the hot rod tractors and the light pro stock tractors.

The event has annually attracted huge crowds to the fair.

The following day will be the Mud Bog Mania, featuring four-wheelers and trucks. There is also a $2 admission fee for this event.

The event will include all-terrain vehicles (ATV) in five classes, including two- and four-wheel drive stock and two- and four-wheel drive modified, as well as super stock.

The event will also include four-wheel drive trucks trying to slug their way through the mud pit.

The object is to make it through the mud in the shortest amount of time. If no one in a particular class does that, the winner is the one that travels the farthest.

It’s a relatively new event to the fair, making an appearance for the first time two years ago. But it’s been a familiar site at the fairgrounds thanks to the Lockington Fire Department, which holds a mud bog event every year as one of its top fundraisers. It was the success of those events that ultimately made it part of the fair.

Harness racing Friday will mark a return of the harness horses to the Shelby County Fair, and it will be the only night of racing in front of the grandstands.

Post time will be 4 p.m. since there are no longer lights around the track, and there are 10 divisions on the card, including the super stakes races featuring two-year-old and three-year-old fillies and colts in both gaits.

There has been just one day of harness racing for several years now, with the big tracks and their potential for big paydays attracting the horse owners. County fairs aren’t able to compete in terms of purses.

“There just aren’t enough horses,” said Don Henman, who along with James Bensman form the speed committee. “But they tell me they are breeding more horses these days, so who knows? Maybe someday soon we’ll have enough for more than one day of racing. But you can’t really tell.”

Henman said he hopes for at least 10 heats of racing, but that will depend on the number of entries.

The lineup consists of pace races for the 2- and 3-year-old fillies, and trots for the 2- and 3-year-old fillies, the Leonard Baker Memorial trot free-for-all, 2- and 3-year-old ace and trot races for colts, and the Joe Strayer Memorial, which is a pace free-for-all.

The program is the same as it was last year.

Also the same is the money being paid out for any horse breaking the track records, $125 at either gait (pace or trot). In the event more than one horse breaks the record, the money will go to the fastest for the meet, and ties will be divided.

The free-for-alls have provided the best shot at those track records, which have stood for years. The pace record is 1:58 and the trot record 2:002/5.

The estimated purse for this year’s speed program is $26,600.

Those donating horse blankets this year include the Joe Stayer Memorial, Shelby County Engineer Robert Geuy, ReMax One, Brewer Sound of Palestine, In Memory of Red Henman, the Shelby County Fair, Booher Chiropractic, the Leonard Baker Memorial, Louis Bertsch Memorial, Lochard, Inc, the Shelby County VFW Memorial Post 4239, Cromes Funeral Home and William “Red” Henman Memorial.

After the War of 1812, many settlers moved to Ohio. Some came by boat, while others came by wagon. By 1820, the new state of Ohio had grown to a population of 5,000. There was not much reliable transportation at that time. There was a network of unpaved roads that crossed the state, but travel by land was slow and expensive. In 1825, the state legislature decided to build canals to improve transportation. Between 1825 and 1847, 1,000-mile of canals were built in Ohio.

Canals were large, man-made ditches, filled with water that carried boats over hilly, uneven areas. Canals in Ohio were built Canal Boat by hand â&#x20AC;&#x201C; dug with picks and Courtesy of the Mount Vernon News shovels. They were built mainly

by Irish, German and French immigrants who worked for 31 cents a day, plus food and shelter. The canals were 40-feet-wide and four-feet-deep.

Two major canals were built in Ohio. The Ohio and Erie Canal crossed the eastern part of Ohio, while the Miami and Erie Canal crossed western Ohio.

The first section of the Ohio and Erie Canal, connecting Cleveland to Akron, opened in 1827. The final section of this project opened in 1832, connecting Cleveland to Portsmouth. Before this canal was built, it took 30 days to travel by land from Akron to New York City. After its construction, the same trip took just 10

days by canal boat.

The Miami and Erie Canal was also built in sec

tions. The construction of the first section of this

canal, connecting Middletown to Cincinnati, began on Columbus July 25, 1825. The final section opened in 1845, con

necting Toledo to Cincinnati.

Canals were successful until 1855. After that time,

railroads began to become a more important means of transportation. The last sections of canals used for transportation were abandoned in 1913.

Word of the Week Dump — To throw away or discard garbage, refuse, etc.

Newspaper Knowledge Have a race through the newspaper to find as many geographical words as you can, like “hill”, “river”, “lake”, “plateau”.

Find examples of as many of them as you can on a map of the state.

Much of our tap water comes from rivers. And we all do things around the house every day that can affect our rivers and streams. Remember, your rivers are closer than you think. Be RiverSmart about the things you do by following these easy tips:

Words To Know Effect Purpose Draining Rain Clean

Dumping Waste Polluted Safe

Summer Time Tips Stormwater management information for Miami Valley residents

Did you know?

Soapy runoff from vehicle washing in your driveway enters the storm drains and flows untreated into our streams.

Detergent levels as low as 0.1 ppm can harm wildlife.

Detergents are a source of excessive nutrients which also degrade the creeks and streams in the Miami Valley Here are some tips on how to care for your car to minimize your car to minimize your impact on the environment:

1. Repair leaky faucets and toilets right away.

Leaky sinks and toilets can waste 50 gallons of water in one day, depleting our rivers. For a leaky faucet, look for a faulty o-ring or valve seat. Toilet leaks aren’t always so obvious.

Try pouring colored liquid into the tank. If after 15 minutes you see dye in the bowl, you may need to replace the flapper.

2. Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth and washing the dishes.

You can save 3-5 gallons a day. Try using a cup when brushing and shaving. And fill up the sink first when washing vegetables or doing a load of dishes. It’s a small change that will make a big difference.

Used motor oil can be reprocessed for reuse. Put used oil in clean container with a tight lid and contact and contact your local recycling center for where to take it.

Park and wash your cars in the grass keeping the dirty and soapy water from running from your driveway directly into the storm drains. Even better, take your car to a commercial car wash where the water is typically filtered for reuse and ultimately treated at a wastewater treatment plant.

Keep your car serviced. Regular tune-ups reduce the amount of hydrocarbons, nitrous oxide, and other pollutants which impact our water as well as our air.

Repair leaks. Spots on your driveway or garage floor indicate the engine, transmission or radiator is leaking. Clean up spots and spills with cat litter or other absorbent materials and place into the trash. Do not dump or hose these pollutant into streets or storm drains.

3. Run the washing machine and dishwasher only when they are fully loaded.

You can save between 300-800 gallons of water each month.

4. Dispose of household cleaners, paint and other chemicals safely.

Many cleaning products found in our homes and garages are too dangerous to be disposed of in the trash or down the drain. Read the label: anything marked “Poison” or “Danger” should be taken to your local hazardous waste center. Use water-based paints and dry off excess paint with a paper towel before rinsing your paintbrush.

5. Sweep off-instead of hosing-the driveway, patio or sidewalk.

Hosing for 15 minutes wastes 150 gallons of water. Water run-off from our driveways or sidewalks carries contaminants, such as dirt, motor oil, fertilizers and animal waste, into our rivers.

6. Pick up after your pet.

When it rains, bacteria from pet waste left in the yard can run into our streets and storm drains, polluting our rivers and streams. This can be harmful to humans and to wildlife using the river. Be a good neighbor by picking up after your pet at home and on walks.

7. Fix car leaks promptly.

Leaky cars leave drips or puddles of motor oil and other fluids on our streets and driveways. When it rains, these contaminants run down our streets, through the storm drains, and into our rivers. So clean stains on your driveway or street and fix car leaks right away. Preventing polluted run-off will help keep our rivers and drinking water safe.

8. Take care when changing your car’s motor oil and dispose of the oil safely.

One quart of motor oil can pollute 250,000 gallons of river water, so use a large pan if you are changing motor oil yourself. Never pour leftover oil down a storm drain or into the trash - instead, drop it off at your local hazardous waste center.

9. Water your lawn and garden only in the morning or evening.

Water evaporates quickly during the middle of the day.

Remember, a lawn only needs 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week, and you can set our a can to measure for you.

Watering less creates deeper, stronger roots and a healthier lawn. Or you could try letting the lawn go brown, as nature intended during summer months. Another option is to plant native plants or xeriscaping that require less water altogether.

10. Buy and use environmentally friendly products.

Choose safer, multi-purpose cleaners marked with only a “Caution” warning, rather than products with “Poison” and “Danger” on the label. Avoid chlorine, phosphate products and solvents like paint thinner. Visit www.riversmart.org to find recipes for inexpensive, safe alternatives.
