public schools if they don’t pass assessment. Kohls is president of the Ohio School Board Leadership Council, an advocacy group that coaches taxpayers and board members on education leadership. She has had experience in communicating the need for a philosophy shift in education and has spent hundreds of hours giving lectures and testifying to legislators about the needs of children in education and “the ways that our current philosophy is putting children last in education.” Springboro Schools had five levy failures but over the past three years Kohls has successfully fostered a “Students First” teaching, funding and spending philosophy. She has supported the needs of the students to be taught the core curriculum, critical thinking and constitutional principles. The school system now shows a “positive financial forecast for years to come without a levy, and goods and services for the children have been restored,” Kohls said. She noted that recently the Springboro Board of Education voted to roll back taxes to taxpay-

ers in an unprecedented 15 percent levy renewal reduction. She feels that taxpayers deserve the respect of their elected officials and should be able to trust that they will not overtax just because they can. She noted that changes in Springboro have not been without trials and tribulations, but recent elections there have shown that the Springboro community supports the Students First philosophy with two new conservative board members being elected. Rep. Andy Thompson, 95th District, recently introduced a bill, HB 237 to repeal Common Core in Ohio. The bill is cosponsored by Rep. John Becker, 65th District. Those interested in learning more about Common Core Standards and PARCC assessment and what it means to the local education system are urged to attend the meeting which will be held at the Sidney VFW Hall, 2811 Wapakoneta Ave at 7 p.m. on the 20th. The meeting is free and open to the public. A goal of the Shelby Liberty Group is to educate and share current legislation with area residents.

Adding to the GOP bullishness: Democratic retirements in three of the seven states — West Virginia, Montana and South Dakota — and a few recruiting disappointments. “There’s a lot of hard work to be done, but we feel very comfortable about the progression of the 2014 map in our favor and the quality of Republican candidates expressing an interest in running in key states,” said Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Still, Republicans had a similar edge in 2010 and 2012, and failed to take control because of flawed candidates and ill-conceived remarks. The GOP list of lost opportunities is long — Delaware, Colorado, Nevada in 2010, Missouri, Indiana, North Dakota and Montana in 2012. “All of those prognostications were wrong,” Guy Cecil, executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, said. “One of the things

that we demonstrated in the last election is that Senate races are about the two people who are on the ballot.” Next year’s Senate contests stand as perhaps the best chance for the GOP, especially since Republicans will have to defend 24 Senate seats to the Democrats’ 10 in the presidential election year of 2016. Currently, Democrats hold a 54-46 edge. Newark Mayor Cory Booker is expected to win next week’s Democratic primary in New Jersey and the Oct. 16 special election, boosting the Democratic margin to 10. ——— BLUEGRASS BRAWL The political ads and videos in Kentucky make it seem like five-term Sen. Mitch McConnell has three opponents — primary challenger Matt Bevin, Democrat Alison Lundergan Grimes and Obama. With close to $10 million on hand to make his case, McConnell is casting him-

self as the bulwark against the president’s policies in a state that Obama lost by 23 percentage points last year. “To Barack Obama and his allies, coal country represents a threat,” McConnell intones in a video that repeatedly shows the president and never mentions Grimes by name. McConnell is seeking not just another six-year term but also a shot at the prize of Senate majority leader. And he is taking no chances either politically or legislatively. He has run four television ads since March, responding quickly to outside groups, promoting his own candidacy and seeking to define his rivals. McConnell has assailed Bevin over payment of taxes in two ads, with one airing even before the businessman announced his GOP primary candidacy. In the Senate last week, McConnell voted with fellow Kentuckian and tea party favorite Rand Paul to cut U.S. aid to Egypt. The vote put McConnell on the opposite side of the powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a rare place for a senator who has been a strong supporter of

Israel. On Thursday, in an embarrassment for McConnell, audio of a Jan. 9 telephone conversation revealed that his campaign manager said he was “holding my nose” while working for the candidate. In a brief telephone interview, Jesse Benton, who has deep tea party ties, didn’t dispute the authenticity of the taping, saying he wasn’t confirming it but wasn’t denying it either. Separately, in a statement emailed to reporters, he said he believes in McConnell and is 100 percent committed to his re-election. Economic Policy Journal posted the audio online. If McConnell dispatches Bevin, who is on the air with his own ad hitting the senator for supporting the Wall Street bailout in 2007, Democrat Grimes has served notice that she’ll be a tough competitor. “I don’t scare easy,” she declares in a web video that criticizes McConnell as an obstructionist. Republicans take heart in the senator’s history of nailbiting wins. He prevailed by 5,169 votes in 1984 and survived another challenge in 2008.

Man charged with plotting wife’s murder

News Briefs

3-vehicle crash in NW Ohio sends 1 to hospital SANDUSKY (AP) — The State Highway Patrol says a three-vehicle crash sent one man to the hospital while two others were treated at the scene in northwest Ohio. A patrol release says the crash occurred on State Route 163 in Ottawa County around 8:30 Friday morning. The patrol says the driver of a pickup truck stopped behind a vehicle waiting to turn left off the highway when a car behind the truck failed to stop. That car hit the truck and was struck from the rear by another car. The driver of the car that hit the truck was taken to a hospital. His condition wasn’t immediately known. The patrol says the other car’s driver was cited for failure to stop in an assured clear distance ahead and with driving under suspension.

Ohio proposal would let voters register online COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohioans could register to vote and request an absentee ballot online under a state legislative proposal. The measure from Sen. Frank LaRose also would let Ohio’s elections chief work with other states to share information to help maintain voter rolls. Republican Secretary of State Jon Husted backs online voter registration. He praised the bill’s introduction Thursday, saying it will improve voter access and save the state money. Husted’s 2014 Democratic challenger also supports many of the bill’s concepts. State Sen. Nina Turner of Cleveland says other updates to Ohio’s election process should be considered, such as Election Day registration. Online registration was part of a contentious election bill in 2011 but was later repealed. Currently, voters can update their addresses over the Internet under changes Husted made last year.

Ohio troopers say new shoes may be safety hazards COLUMBUS (AP) — The union for Ohio troopers says new shoes being issued to them by the State Highway Patrol are slick — and not in a good way. The footwear, a type of short boot, is in a buckle-andstrap style instead of the lace-up style many troopers prefer. They complain the shoes can cause slips and aren’t secure enough when officers run after or tussle with people, The Columbus Dispatch reported Friday. They say the new style doesn’t resist moisture or provide ankle-support while certain officers, such as canine handlers, can still wear the older version. Troopers are being required to begin wearing the shoes by Nov. 1, although they still can choose to wear a more rugged boot in bad weather. The Ohio State Troopers Association and several officers have filed grievances, contending the shoes create unsafe working conditions. The union also alleges patrol leadership is emphasizing appearance over safety in the choice of shoe, the newspaper said. “They are more of a dress shoe than a shoe suitable for units actually working the roads,” said Trooper Larry Phillips, president of the troopers’ union. In response to the complaints, the Highway Patrol wrote that “safety has never come into question” as troopers wore shoes in a similar style for years. The patrol said the union can’t support claims of unsafe shoes causing injuries or “loss of work time.” A patrol spokeswoman said the agency is willing to discuss the issue, instead of waiting for an arbitrator to consider the grievance in a potentially length process. “It’s management’s right to determine the equipment troopers will wear while on duty,” Lt. Anne Ralston said. “At the same time, we would never compromise officer safety.” 42 Years of Professional Service

He offered alternative scenarios for the killing, including having Zunich cut herself to make it look like selfdefense or, if arrested, by claiming she didn’t remember what happened or was insane, the indictment says. Lake County Prosecutor Charles Coulson declined to elaborate on the relationship between Knoefel and Zunich beyond what was in the indictment, which detailed sexual encounters over an eight-month period last year. Coulson also would not comment on whether Zunich had cooperated with the investigation targeting her foster father. The case against Zunich hasn’t been presented to the grand jury, and that may reflect her willingness to cooperate and strike a plea deal, said Cleveland attorney Ronald Frey, who isn’t involved in the case. “Delays such as this often signal that cooperation is underway or perhaps a plea agreement is in the works. Only time will tell,” he said in an email.

Report on Ohio inmate escape cites staff errors By KANTELE FRANKO Associated Press

COLUMBUS — Corrections staff failed to properly count work crews and follow policy in responding to alarms when an inmate used ladders to escape a state prison last month, the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction said Friday. The department said four employees from the Mansfield Correctional Institution have been placed on administrative leave pending further review and might face discipline. “The strongest possible actions will be pursued against the appropriate employees to hold them accountable for the escape, and to ensure that a similar incident does not occur” at any Ohio prison, the department said in a summary of its investigation. The employees on paid leave are the facility’s security chief, maintenance supervisor, a maintenance worker and a corrections officer. A message was left Friday for the head of the local union that repre-

sents corrections staff. The prisons department said a full report on the investigation would be shared with wardens but would not be released publicly because it contains detailed security-related information. The department’s summary includes a list of system-wide steps to be taken in response to the findings. The department plans to reexamine requirements for inmate counts, have weekly alarm system checks at each prison, review how ladders are stored and take an inventory of any tools not recently used, among other steps. Authorities said inmate James David Myers hid in a maintenance area where he worked at the prison and used a pickax he’d hidden earlier to break locks on a storage area and get three ladders. He used the ladders to escape over three security fences on July 3, his 47th birthday. He was taken into custody the next day at the small Olivesburg General Store, where he was recognized by a customer, tackled to the ground and tied up with rope until

authorities arrived. Employees at the store later noticed he’d been carrying a coat labeled with the abbreviation for the close-security prison, which is about eight miles from the store in rural, northcentral Ohio. Employees said Myers had told them his vehicle broke down nearby and he needed to use the phone. They said he also bought an iced tea and a lighter at a counter where his mug shot was displayed and tried to use change from his pocket to cover up the picture. Myers, formerly of Mogadore, was imprisoned in 2010 on kidnapping, rape, aggravated burglary and other charges out of northeast Ohio’s Summit County. Prosecutors alleged he raped a woman at gunpoint and forced her to consume cocaine, and an appeals court upheld his conviction, according to court records. He has been transferred to the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville, prisons spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said.

2 officers on leave after inmate suicide COLUMBUS (AP) — Two corrections officers working when a death row inmate apparently hanged himself have been put on paid administrative leave as the Ohio prisons department investigates what happened. Department of Rehabilitation and Correction spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said Friday the officers were placed on leave in accordance with standard practice in such cases. One officer is 30 and joined the agency in September 2010. The other is 19 and has been a corrections officer since January. They were working at the Chillicothe C o r re c t i o n a l

Institution last weekend when 44-year-old Billy Slagle was found hanging in his cell. Slagle died Sunday, days before his execution date and hours before officers were to begin monitoring him around the clock. Officers at the prison are supposed to check on inmates every 30 minutes. Smith wouldn’t comment further on the investigation. A coroner confirmed that preliminary autopsy results were consistent with suicide by hanging, but prison officials haven’t said how Slagle hanged himself. Public defender Vicki Werneke has said Slagle didn’t know his

legal team had new information about his case and planned to ask for an execution delay. The new information was brought to light by Cuyahoga County prosecutor Timothy McGinty, who told the defense team about a forgotten plea deal in which a former prosecutor offered Slagle a 30-year sentence if he pleaded guilty. McGinty had earlier asked the Ohio Parole Board to spare Slagle, saying that jurors today, with the option of life without parole, would be unlikely to sentence Slagle to death. The board and Gov. John Kasich rejected mercy for Slagle.

the Division of Children and Family Services in Cuyahoga County. Knoefel was arrested Friday by local police and faces arraignment Monday. He also was charged with six counts of sexual battery stemming from his role as a foster father — three counts stemming from before Zunich turned 18 on Oct. 27 and three counts from after her birthday. Court records didn’t identify an attorney for him. If convicted, he could face life in prison. According to the indictment, Knoefel and Zunich discussed different ways to kill Lisa Knoefel while she slept. Knoefel suggested Zunich stab his wife between the shoulder blades or around the neck, the indictment says, and told the teenager that her foster mother “was worth more dead than alive.” The indictment says Knoefel coached Zunich on how to make the killing look like a burglary by rummaging through jewelry and leaving a door partly open.

WILLOUGHBY HILLS (AP) — An Ohio man was indicted Friday on charges that he plotted to kill his wife with his teenage foster daughter, with whom he allegedly was romantically involved. Kevin Knoefel, 43, of Willoughby Hills, was indicted by a Lake County grand jury on counts of conspiracy to commit aggravated murder and complicity to aggravated murder. His wife, 41-year-old Lisa Knoefel, was found stabbed to death in their home in November. Their foster daughter, Sabrina Zunich, 18, was arrested the night of the slaying and is in jail awaiting trial on a murder charge. Police in Willoughby Hills, east of Cleveland, got a 911 call before dawn Nov. 16 from a 13-year-old girl screaming that her sister had a knife and was attacking her mother. Police say they found Zunich in the house covered with blood and holding a knife. Her foster mother was found in a first-floor bedroom with fatal stab wounds. Lisa Knoefel had worked at

Car in California missing teen case found in Idaho

Today in History By The Associated Press Today is Saturday, Aug. 10, the 222nd day of 2013. There are 143 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On August 10, 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed a measure providing $20,000 payments to still-living Japanese-Americans who’d been interned by their government during World War II. On this date: • In 1680, Pueblo Indians launched a successful revolt against Spanish colonists in present-day New Mexico. • In 1792, during the French Revolution, mobs in Paris attacked the Tuileries (TWEE’-luh-reez) Palace, where King Louis XVI resided. (The king was later arrested, put on trial for treason, and executed.) • In 1821, Missouri became the 24th state. • In 1846, President James K. Polk signed a measure establishing the Smithsonian Institution. • In 1874, Herbert Clark Hoover, the 31st president of the United States, was born in West Branch, Iowa. • In 1913, the Treaty of Bucharest was signed, ending the Second Balkan War. • In 1921, Franklin D. Roosevelt was stricken with polio at his summer home on the Canadian island of Campobello. • In 1949, the National Military Establishment was renamed the Department of Defense. • In 1962, the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library and Museum was dedicated in West Branch, Iowa, on the 88th birthday of the former president, who attended the ceremony along with former President Harry S. Truman. • In 1969, Leno and Rosemary LaBianca were murdered in their Los Angeles home by members of Charles Manson’s cult, one day after actress Sharon Tate and four other people had been slain. • In 1975, television personality David Frost announced he had purchased the exclusive rights to interview former President Richard Nixon. • In 1993, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was sworn in as the second female justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. • Ten years ago: Liberian President Charles Taylor delivered a farewell address to a nation bloodied by 14 years of war. During a heat wave plaguing Europe, Britain topped 100 degrees Fahrenheit for the first time in recorded history. Russian cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko, aboard the international space station, married his earthbound bride, Ekaterina Dmitriev, who was at Johnson Space Center in Houston, in the first wedding ever conducted from space. Atlanta Braves shortstop Rafael Furcal turned the 12th unassisted triple play in major league history against the St. Louis Cardinals. (St. Louis beat Atlanta 3-2.) • Five years ago: At the Beijing Olympics, Michael Phelps began his long march toward eight gold medals by winning the 400-meter individual medley in 4:03.84 — smashing his own world record.

Pa. man has best ‘burns’

ERIE, Pa. (AP) — The winner has been named in a Pennsylvania sideburns contest that honors a U.S. Navy commodore known for his impressive facial hair. The Erie Times-News reports that 56-year-old Dave Baxter, of Lake City, Pa., topped 19 contestants on Wednesday evening. Officials say one contestant dropped out because he recently got a new job, had to move and was required to shave. Contestants were asked to show their patriotic spirit by growing sideburns most like those of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. Baxter says he researched images of Perry to try and match the hero who commanded a nine-ship American fleet to victory over the British in the Battle of Lake Erie in 1813. Historical portraits suggest that Perry wore long mutton-chop sideburns that extended toward his lips.

CASCADE, Idaho (AP) — A car belonging to a man suspected of killing a California woman and her young son and then fleeing with the 16-year-old daughter was found in the Idaho wilderness on Friday after horseback riders reported seeing the man and girl hiking in the area two days earlier, authorities said. The riders reported seeing the two near Morehead Lake, an extremely rugged area about 70 miles northeast of Boise, around noon Wednesday, according to Ada County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Patrick Orr. They didn’t report it until later, after seeing news reports and realizing the pair was being sought. Idaho authorities started searching Thursday and the car was found Friday morning. There have been no other reported sightings of the pair since Wednesday. San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said when the riders saw the two, the girl, Hannah Anderson, did not appear as if she was being held against her will. He did not elaborate. She and the suspect, James Lee DiMaggio, 40, seemed healthy. Brett Anderson, Hannah’s father, said he was “very happy” that Hannah was spotted alive. He said he couldn’t explain why his daughter didn’t ask the

horseback riders for help. “We don’t know what kind of frame of mind she was in or what he told her,” Anderson said. “Maybe if she acted differently, there would be more dead people.” Hannah’s grandfather, Christopher Saincome, also was relieved and refused to try to explain the girl’s reaction to the riders. “He could have strapped something to her and told her it was a bomb. He could have had her tethered to him,” he said. “I’m sure she’s totally in shock.” The car, a blue Nissan Versa, was covered in brush off a road about 5 or 6 miles from the spot where the man and girl had been seen. The license plates had been removed, but the vehicle identification number matched that of the car being sought, Gore said. Police previously warned that the car may be rigged with explosives. Bomb experts planned to examine it. Morehead Lake is in the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, a vast and rugged 2.3 millionacre preserve in the heart of Idaho. Because of its wilderness designation, the preserve is not open to motorized vehicles and traffic is limited to hikers and horseback riders.

Mexico releases drug kingpin MEXICO CITY (AP) — Infamous drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero walked free Friday after 28 years in prison when a court overturned his 40-year sentence for the 1985 kidnap and killing of a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent, a brutal murder that marked a low point in U.S.-Mexico relations. The court ruled that Caro Quintero was improperly tried in a federal court for a crime that should have been treated as a state offense. Prison officials were notified of the ruling on Thursday, and an official at the Jalisco state prosecutors’ office said the 61-yearold drug lord left prison before dawn on Friday. The official was not authorized to speak on the record. News media were not alerted until hours after the release, and it was unclear whether U.S. authorities had received prior notification. Caro Quintero still faces active charges in the United States and Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office said it did not know if there was a current extradition request. The U.S. Embassy in Mexico did not immediately comment on the release or court ruling, which came on Wednesday. Caro Quintero is considered the grandfather of Mexican drug trafficking. He established a powerful cartel based in the northwestern Mexican state

of Sinaloa that later split into some of Mexico’s largest cartels, including the Sinaloa and Juarez cartels. Caro Quintero is still listed as one of the DEA’s five top international fugitives, and U.S. authorities believe he continued to control the laundering of drug money from behind bars. “Caro Quintero continues to launder the proceeds from narcotics trafficking and he maintains an alliance with drug trafficking organizations such as the Sinaloa Cartel, most notably with Esparragoza Moreno’s network,” said Treasury Department spokesman John Sullivan, referring to Juan Jose Esparragoza Moreno — also known as “El Azul,” or “Blue” because of the dark color of his skin — who is allegedly a top leader of the Sinaloa cartel. In June, the Treasury Department imposed sanctions against 18 people and 15 companies that allegedly moved money for Caro Quintero. “Caro Quintero has used a network of family members and front persons to invest his fortune into ostensibly legitimate companies and real estate projects in the city of Guadalajara” said Adam Szubin, Director of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. Caro Quintero has spent almost all of his sentence at a prison on the outskirts of that city, Mexico’s second-largest city.

Gunmen kidnap Turkish Airlines pilots in Lebanon BEIRUT (AP) — Gunmen intercepted a van carrying Turkish Airlines employees from Beirut’s international airport to a hotel in the Lebanese capital Friday, kidnapping two pilots but leaving the four other crew members behind, officials said. The abductions appeared linked to neighboring Syria’s civil war, a conflict that has sparked repeated bouts of fighting in Lebanon between sectarian communities as well as a spate of tit-for-tat kidnappings over the past two years. Friday’s attack prompted Turkey to issue a travel warning urging its citizens

to avoid unnecessary travel to Lebanon and those already there to leave. The Turkish Airlines crew, which arrived on a flight from Istanbul early Friday, was in a van along an old airport road in Beirut when two vehicles forced it to pull over, Lebanese security officials said. Six gunmen pulled the pilot and co-pilot from the vehicle, but let the four other crew members go, the officials said on condition of anonymity in line with regulations. Turkish Airlines spokesman Ali Genc identified the two pilots as Murat Akpinar and Murat Agca.

Lebanon’s state news agency reported that the driver of the van was questioned and that eight gunmen were involved in the abduction. The difference in the number of the attackers in the report and the Lebanese officials’ account could not immediately be explained. The state news agency said a group called Zuwaar al-Imam Rida claimed responsibility for the kidnapping. The group, which was previously unknown, said in a statement that the pilots “will only be released when the Lebanese hostages in Syria return,” the agency said. The

veracity of the claim could not be immediately verified. In May 2012, a rebel faction in northern Syria took hostage 11 Lebanese Shiites who had been on a bus tour of religious sites in the area. The commander of the brigade, Ammar alDadikhli, told The Associated Press last September that he was holding them captive to try to force Lebanon’s Shiite militant group Hezbollah to stop supporting Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime. Syria’s rebels are predominantly Sunnis, and are widely supported by Lebanon’s own Sunni community.

Walk to End Alzheimer’s sets kick-off event

Disabled students enjoy overnight camp The Shelby County ARC has opened a new recreational program for children with developmental disabilities. Shelby County ARC is a nonprofit organization in Sidney that provides social and recreational opportunities to individuals of all ages living in Shelby County who have developmental disabilities. The program, Camp Dalanda, was the first overnight camp offered by the organization and is the largest activity organized by the group this year. The camp began Wednesday and ran through today at Western Buckeye Christian Service Camp in Houston,. The idea to organize an overnight camp for Shelby County students who have developmental disabilities came from two, multiple-disability teachers at Sidney Middle School,

Cheryl Clark and Jane Hixon. They approached the Shelby County ARC last year and asked for help with financial oversight and management of the new venture. The camp was named in honor of Dalanda Roddy, a former student of Clark’s and Hixon’s, who passed away unexpectedly in 2009. Her parents, Scott and Barb Roddy, of Sidney, have been a part of the planning process and served as staff at the camp. Campers participated in camp fires, crafts, swimming, boating, fishing, sports, games and group activities. Upon check-in, campers were paired with high school volunteers who help them get around the campground to the various scheduled activities. The volunteers serve as friends and mentors to the campers. All camp counselors had pro-

fessional experience working with children with disabilities, and high school volunteers received disability awareness and basic medical training prior to the start of camp. The purpose of Camp Dalanda was to provide a traditional camp experience for those children who, due to their disabilities, might not otherwise be able to have an overnight camp experience. The camp included a variety of physical, emotional and social wellness activities that allowed campers to learn new things, increase their independence and social skills, and boost their self-esteem. Camp Dalanda was financially supported by a Special Project Grant from the Shelby County United Way, a grant from the local Cargill Corp. in Sidney and by the Roddy family.

“Think of one important moment in your life, a memory you wouldn’t want to lose. That’s what’s taken away from these people.” With those words, Sarah Beers will open a kick-off event for the 2013 Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Sidney. The kick-off will be Aug. 14 at 5 p.m. at the Senior Center of Sidney and Shelby County, 304 S. West Ave. The event, which will include refreshments, is where teams and individuals can learn about the walk and share ideas about fund-raising projects that will boost the total amount raised during the walk itself, on Oct. 12. Beers and Lu Ann Presser, of Sidney, co-chair the walk, which is hosted by the Alzheimer’s Association Miami Valley Chapter. They hope to take this year’s walk “to the next level,” Beers said. “We want to get more families and businesses involved to form teams. Aug. 14 will be a Walk

Team of Excitement event. We want to really rally it up. We’ll give people information and tools.” The association has sent fliers and invitations to area businesses and organizations. The Sidney-Shelby County Chamber of Commerce included fliers in a recent mailing to its members. Hits 105.5 radio is running public service announcements about it and the group has made extensive use of social media to get the word out. “Facebook is my friend,” Beers said. “We’re trying to get people to get pumped up about this.

In an effort to remind residents to dial 811 before digging, Aug. 11 has been designated National Call Before You Dig awareness day. Not only does it ensure the safety of all involved, but it is the law to inform local utility companies regarding the intent to dig at least two full days prior by calling the national 811 free service, said Vectren Energy Delivery officials. After telling the 811 operator where the digging will take place and the type of work involved, the approximate location of buried lines, pipes and cables will be marked. Throughout 2012, Vectren responded to roughly 1,300 damage to underground lines and pipes due to digging in unmarked areas. Striking a single line can cause injury, repair costs, fines and inconvenient outages. Installing a mailbox,

building a deck, planting a tree and laying a patio are all examples of digging projects that need a prior call to 811. “Calling 811 is easy, free and can ultimately save a life,” said Colleen Ryan, president of Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio. “Failure to call before digging results in more than 150,000 unintentional hits annually across the U.S. We hope by educating our customers, together we can keep one another safe while driving that statistic down.” The depth of utility lines can vary for a number of reasons, such as erosion, previous digging projects, and uneven surfaces. Utility lines need to be properly marked because even when digging only a few inches, the risk of striking an underground utility line still exists.

NRMLA certifies Rose 1st in Ohio to get reverse mortgage designation Teresa Rose, president of Senior Security Funding, a division of Western Ohio Mortgage Corp. based in Sidney, was recently awarded the Certified Reverse Mortgage Professional designation. This designation makes her part of a small, but growing, group of professionals who have demonstrated superior knowledge and competency in the area of reverse mortgages and dedication to upholding the highest ethical and professional standards. Only 64 individuals nationwide have so far earned the CRMP since the first awards were bestowed by the National Reverse Mortgage Lenders Association (NRMLA) in June 2010. Rose is the first person from Ohio to earn the designation. “The process involved to receive this professional designation was long and arduous and adds to the level of expertise maintained by myself and the company,” said Rose. Before people can apply for the designation and sit for the exam, they must first meet a series of rigorous experiential thresholds that measure time spent in the reverse mortgage industry and number of reverse mortgages personally closed by the applicant. Each applicant must complete a certain amount of continuing education credits and pass a background check. “We congratulate Teresa and admire her for striving to be a part of a group of industry professionals committed to demonstrating their eagerness for continued education and thorough knowledge of the reverse mortgage sector,” said

Teresa Rose

Peter Bell, president of NRMLA. “She will be joined by hundreds more over time, but determination to get there first affirms that she wants to offer her clients every possible assurance of her own highest level of professionalism.” Reverse mortgages are available to seniors 62 years-old and older with significant home equity. They are designed to enable elderly homeowners to borrow against the equity in their homes without having to make monthly payments as is required with a traditional “forward” mortgage or home equity loan. Under a reverse mortgage, funds are advanced to the borrower and interest accrues, but the outstanding balance is not due until the last borrower leaves the home, sells or passes away. Borrowers

may draw down funds as a lump sum at loan origination, establish a line of credit or request fixed monthly payments for as long as they continue to live in the home. Rose is the founder of Western Ohio Mortgage Corp. This year, she celebrates 30 years in the lending industry. After working at local lending institutions in positions ranging from teller to assistant vice president, in 1999, she opened WOMC. In the last 14 years, Rose has grown WOMC from a small mortgage bank with a handful of employees to a multi-state, multibranch corporation with more than 50 employees. She has served as an officer of and has many designations from different organizations including Fannie Mae Housing Institute, American Institute of Bankers, Ohio Association of Mortgage Professionals, Ohio Association of Mortgage Bankers and Midwest Ohio Association of Realtors. She is an approved direct endorsement underwriter with the Department of Housing and Urban Development and an approved VA underwriter. Rose was recently elected to the Ohio Mortgage Bankers Board of Directors. Her term will expire in 2016. The NRMLA is a membership organization comprising more than 300 companies and more than 1,000 people participating in the reverse mortgage industry. NRMLA serves as the national voice for the reverse mortgage industry. It serves as an educational resource, policy advocate and public affairs center for lenders and related professionals. NRMLA was established in 1997 to enhance the professionalism of the reverse mortgage business.

Vexed viewers find workarounds

CBS-TWC spat sparks alternatives search LOS ANGELES (AP) — As the fee fight between Time Warner Cable and CBS threatens to prevent millions of Americans from viewing major sporting events this weekend, fans will be hanging out in bars, hooking up antennas, and firing up laptops to get around the blackout. Nancy Keiter, a graphic designer in New York, is patching together an unusual schedule. She plans to watch early rounds of the PGA Championship golf tournament on TNT on Saturday and Sunday until 2 p.m. Eastern time. Then, she’ll switch from the TV set to her computer, where she’ll head to PGA.com. The site will follow the featured golfers with live video coverage through the trophy ceremony. Still, Keiter is peeved that she can’t watch the action the normal way: by switching to CBS on her TV. “I have my fingers crossed that cooler heads will prevail,” she said in an email interview. “I think it is so rich that CBS and Time Warner say they have the ‘best interests’ of the viewers in mind. Please. This is about money and shareholders, not about the viewer!” Both CBS and Time Warner appear to be hunkered down for the long haul. Their fight is over how much Time Warner Cable pays for CBS programming and how much of the network’s content it can use online. Since they couldn’t agree, about 3 million cable subscribers in New York, Los Angeles and Dallas have been without CBS programming since Aug. 2. Although both compa-

nies say negotiations are ongoing, top spokespeople for both companies were away on Friday and weren’t expected back for the remainder of the weekend. Time Warner Cable sent out a press release Thursday detailing how consumers could find sports and other CBS programming in other ways. In New York, the cable operator has recommended signing up for a monthlong free trial of Aereo, which transmits CBS signals to laptops, tablets, mobile devices and computers, for $8 a month. People with a relatively unobstructed view of a TV tower can buy and hook up a digital antenna to catch free over-the-air broadcasts on their own. Fans of CBS show “Under the Dome” can watch new episodes online four days after their original air date by signing up for Amazon.com’s $79-a-year Prime shipping and video service. Amazon Prime video is watchable on computers, mobile devices and through the TV using connected gadgets such as Roku devices or Xbox game consoles. Other CBS shows such as “Big Brother” are available for free on the CBS mobile app and CBS.com the day after airing, as long as customers are not using an Internet connection provided by Time Warner Cable, because CBS has blocked video to those using an IP address from the cable operator. Live golf coverage will be available on CBSSports. com with the same restriction. Full replays of the final two rounds will be aired on the CBS Sports Network channel, which

was not blocked out. Cable subscribers looking to work around the Internet blockade can go to a cafe for free Wi-Fi, or run the app using a personal wireless data plan on your cellphone or tablet. If you’re a fan of Showtime shows like “Dexter” and “Ray Donovan” you don’t have a legal alternative to get the latest episodes, unless you know someone who gets Showtime from another satellite or cable provider and has room on their couch. Paul Scoptur, a lawyer in Wauwatosa, Wis., who is suing Time Warner Cable for a similar blackout in southeastern Wisconsin, plans to catch the Green Bay Packers’ first preseason game Friday night against Arizona with an awkward workaround. He’ll watch the game on Spanish-language Telemundo with the volume turned down, and listen to the play-by-play — in English — on AM radio. In a separate fee fight, Time Warner Cable has blacked out Journal Communications Inc.’s NBC affiliate, WTMJ-TV, to cable subscribers in southeastern Wisconsin since July 25. “I blame Time Warner because that’s who my contract is with,” said Scoptur. “There’s a lot of people situated like myself who are just ticked off.” Daryl Balod, a design consultant in the Dallas suburb of Colleyville, says her family is unlikely to be rigging up cords from laptops to their TV or running coaxial cable from an antenna on their own. She’s surprised the dispute has gone on this long.

not moving. Sometimes people feel they are moving; other times, it’s the world that’s moving. Most causes of vertigo are benign and can be treated effectively. Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo is the most common, and usually goes away by itself. When it doesn’t, it can be treated by a physical or occupational therapist trained in vestibular rehabilitation. Meniere’s disease, another cause of vertigo, is associated with hearing loss and often is treated with medication as well as with vestibular rehabilitation. A rare cause is a tumor of the nerve to the balance and hearing center in the inner ear. Medicines like Antivert are very effective if used for a few days, but people who use it continually often keep having vertigo. I would try to get your vertigo properly diagnosed and treated before going on the cruise. However, even if you don’t get complete relief, you still may be able to enjoy a cruise, especially on a larger boat in calmer waters. I have read of people with vertigo actually improv-

Of course, the decision is his to make, and while it may not be to your liking, I’m sure your fatherin-law considers it to be a loving gesture and a sign (literally) that he’s proud of his granddaughters. If the tattoo has already been applied, then please, for the sake of family harmony, try to view it from that perspective.

Odds & Ends

Does a bear eat in the kitchen?

KETCHUM, Idaho (AP) — A black bear in search of a late-night snack broke into an Idaho house and licked leftover Chinese food from a cast iron pan on the stove. David Edwards of Ketchum told the Idaho Mountain Express that his dog’s barking awakened him around 3 a.m. Monday. When he went to investigate what had his Irish setter-Lab mix so upset, he saw the bear on its hind legs, paws on the stove, licking a pan. Edwards’ wife, Sara, had fallen asleep on the couch and his first instinct was to get his wife away from the kitchen area. However, he said, “I couldn’t tell her there was a bear in the house because she would have just lost her mind. She gets very upset over spiders.” So he woke her up and led her into the bedroom without telling her about the furry dish washer. Edwards went back into the kitchen to find the bear was gone and the pan was clean. Edwards credits his dog, Stanley, for waking him up before the bear got farther into the house.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, Aug. 11, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) An older family member might be critical of how you use your resources or handle your money. Don't let this get you down. (It was ever thus.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It's easy to fall into worry mode today. Don't do it. "Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but gets you nowhere." GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might have money worries today, or you feel broke. Join the club; we number in the millions. "We've got jackets!" Actually, your earnings will improve this year. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might feel cowed by the criticism of someone. (Grrr.) Someone older or more experienced might discourage you. Don't take this seriously. Perhaps you can learn something from this? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might be mildly anxious about something today, but you won't show others. Actually, if you share your worries, they will diminish. Expand your world by talking to others. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Someone older or in a position of authority might be critical of your goals. This person even might limit your participation in a group. Just bide your time and wait this one out. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is a poor day to talk to authority figures or ask for permission or approval for anything. Quite likely, the answer will be, "Talk to the hand." (It's one of those days.) SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Travel plans look discouraging today. The cost might be prohibitive, or your plans might be too complicated. Just wait a bit, because these wrinkles will smooth out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might be disappointed about the lack of generosity of someone. Perhaps you expected more; however, now you know. Actually, others will be generous to you later. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Be diplomatic in discussions with others today, because it's easy to take offense. Why? Simply because others are critical! Try not to take this personally. (What do they know?) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Older co-workers or supervisors might discourage you at work today. Therefore, keep your plans to yourself. Keep your head down and your powder dry. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) The responsibilities of children might be particularly onerous today. (Goes with the territory.) Furthermore, romance also is disappointing. (Yikes.) Tomorrow is a better day. Just keep treading water. YOU BORN TODAY You are a truthseeker and a top researcher. You will find what you're looking for, whether it is an academic fact or a family secret. In part, this is because you are insightful and intelligent. But you also know how to go for the jugular. Ultimately, you want to enlighten others. This year you will study or learn something valuable. Birthdate of: Chris Messina, actor; Alex Haley, historian/author; Carolyn Murphy, model/actress.

Vandalia will not have any fall sports this year after voters recently turned down a 6-mill additional operating levy. In light of that, athletic directors in the remaining seven Greater Miami Valley Conference schools, including Sidney, have turned their attention to filling Vandalia’s spot on the various schedules, with particular emphasis on football. And while some may find it difficult, Sidney High AD Mike Swank had little trouble filling the opening. It appears the Yellow Jackets, under new head coach Kevin Fell, will be hosting Chaminade-Julienne that night.

10 years ago Aug. 11, 2003

Lehman has a new athletic director. Denise Stauffer has assumed the duties as AD, taking over for Jeff Uhlenhake, who resigned to take a coaching position at Ohio State. Uhlenhake also vacated the head football coaching post, and that’s been filled by Paul Neves, who will also serve as assistant AD. And Missy Brandewie will be the new junior varsity volleyball coach.

Reds whip Padres 7-2

CINCINNATI (AP) — Joey Votto drove in a pair of runs with a single and a triple on Friday night, and Bronson Arroyo recovered from his roughest outing of the season, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 7-2 victory over the San Diego Padres. The Reds have won three straight since getting embarrassed by the St. Louis Cardinals at home last weekend, dropping games by scores of 13-3 and 15-2. Arroyo (10-9) took the loss in that first game against the Cardinals, giving up seven runs in a season-low 3 2-3 innings. He was back on his game against San Diego, allowing only four hits in seven innings, including Logan Forsythe’s solo homer. Votto drove in the first two runs off Andrew Cashner (8-6), ending the right-hander’s streak of three straight wins. Brandon Phillips added a two-run homer off Tim Stauffer. San Diego’s sloppy fielding helped the Reds score twice in the fifth for a 5-1 lead.

It was a break-out night for Todd Frazier. The Reds third baseman doubled in the first inning, ending an 0-for-31 slump that was the longest by a Reds player since Drew Stubbs went out in 32 consecutive at-bats last season. He came around on Votto’s single, which gave the first baseman a seven-game hitting streak. Frazier opened the third with a walk and scored on Votto’s third triple of the season, a drive off the wall in right field that deflected back toward the infield. Jay Bruce’s double made it 3-0. Frazier also had a walk and scored three times overall. San Diego ranks fourth in the NL in fielding, but helped the Reds take control with sloppy defense. Votto opened the fifth inning with a four-pitch walk — Cashner wasn’t going to give him anything this time — and came around on Chris Heisey’s two-out single that right fielder Will Venable misplayed for an error. Then, Zack Cozart grounded to Forsythe, whose

high throw from shortstop landed in the Reds’ dugout area, letting in another unearned run. Phillips hit his 14th homer an inning later, also with two outs. Venable homered in the eighth off Alfredo Simon, extending his hitting streak to six games. Reds catcher Ryan Hanigan was activated off the disabled list and started the game, his first in a month. He’d been sidelined since July 11 with a sprained left wrist. Hanigan went 0 for 2 with a pair of walks. Reliever Jonathan Broxton gave up a single in the ninth, his first appearance since June 13. The Reds set-up man was activated on Wednesday after recovering from a sprained pitching elbow. Notes: Bruce and Phillips are among only seven players in the majors who have driven in a run in at least 50 games this season. … Frazier chose the soundtrack for the postgame fireworks show on Friday. … LH Tony Cingrani (5-1) starts for the Reds on Saturday against RH Tyson Ross (2-5).

Historic day for Dufner Shoots 63 for 2-shot lead PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Nothing was dull about the way Jason Dufner played golf Friday at the PGA Championship. If anything, it was historic. Dufner holed out from the fairway for eagle, rolled in a putt across the green for par and kept making birdies until he stood 12 feet away from a shot at the lowest score in the 153 years of championship golf. One last birdie attempt didn’t even get to the hole, and Dufner had to settle for a record-tying round of 7-under 63. “Probably the worst putt I hit of the day, which is a little disappointing,” Dufner said. “But all in all, it’s a 63, and name on top of the leaderboard. So that’s a great position to be playing form.” It was the third time in the last seven years at the PGA Championship that a player had a putt at becoming the first player to shoot 62 in a major. Tiger Woods circled the hole at Southern Hills in 2007. Steve Stricker narrowly missed at Atlanta Athletic Club two years ago. Dufner didn’t feel disappointed for long. On a rain-softened Oak Hill, where pelt-sized divots were flying and birdies were falling, Dufner surged to a two-shot lead over Masters champion Adam Scott, Jim Furyk and Matt Kuchar. At 9-under 131, Dufner tied the 36-hole record at the PGA Championship he now shares with six other players. Dufner was alone at the top, and in the company of some big names in history. His 63 broke the course record at Oak Hill held by Ben Hogan, Curtis Strange and Webb Simpson, who shot 64 about five hours earlier. Dufner became the 24th player to shoot 63 in a major — Greg Norman and Vijay Singh, both in the Hall of Fame, did it twice. And through it all, he barely cracked a smile. “He’s very calm,” said Stricker, who played alongside Dufner.

Jason Dufner hits from the fairway on the 14th hole during the second round of the PGA Championship golf tournament at Oak Hill Country Club, Friday in Pittsford, N.Y.

“I’m sure he was churning on the inside. He just told me while we were signing our cards, he was like, ‘This is a lot for a Friday.’” The possibilities were endless on a day that began with three hours of a steady rain until the sun broke through and took all the bite out of Oak Hill. Simpson also had a chance at 63 until he made a bogey on the 16th hole of his round. U.S. Open champion Justin Rose shot 29 on the front nine to get back into contention. When the second round finally ended, 27 players remained under par — this on a course that is stubborn when it comes to par.

In five previous majors at Oak Hill, only nine players have finished the tournament in red numbers. Jack Nicklaus did it twice. For all the low scores, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson were left behind. Woods couldn’t get anything going, exchanging birdies with bogeys during a poor putting round that led to an even-par 70. He was at 1-over 141 and 10 shots back going into the weekend. Woods went to the range with his swing coach, trying to find answers. He has only one score in the 60s in 14 rounds at the majors this year. “Obviously, I’m going to have

Browns guard Lauvao undergoes ankle surgery CLEVELAND (AP) — Shawn Lauvao’s consecutive games streak is about to end, and so is Cleveland’s run of healthy starting offensive lineman. The Browns right guard underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle on Friday and will not be ready for the Sept. 8 opener against Miami, the first game Lauvao (lavow) has missed in three seasons. Lauvao, who started all 16 games in each of the past two years, injured his ankle during practice earlier this week. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said Lauvao did not break a bone in his ankle and would not provide any other specifics about the injury or how long the fourth-year player will be sidelined. “He’ll miss some time early in the regular season,” Chudzinski said. “I don’t have any definitive dates and times on that. We’ll just have to see how that goes from the results of the scope, and how he’ll progress over the next few weeks.” Jason Pinkston started for Lauvao in Thursday night’s exhibition opener against St. Louis and will likely slide into the starting lineup for the opener against the Dolphins. Pinkston made 22 con-

secutive starts at left guard before he developed blood clots in his lungs last season, was hospitalized and missed the final 10 games. Lauvao was one of four Browns offensive linemen, along with Joe Thomas, Kevin Mack and Mitchell Schwartz, who did not miss a snap last season. Chudzinski felt Cleveland’s line didn’t miss a beat with Pinkston subbing for Lauvao in the 27-19 win over the Rams. “I was pleased with Jason’s performance,” he said. “He did well along with the group of ones (starters) upfront. Then he continued and played a little bit more. I wanted to get him more work and keep working him back into things and he did a good job. I was pleased with him.” With John Greco starting at left guard, Chudzinski doesn’t think he’ll move Pinkston back to his original spot. “I like where they’re at right now,” he said. “I think Greco’s been playing over there and been playing solid ball. And Jason, he’s a good athlete, and he had played right guard earlier in his career, moved to left guard. I think we’ll

work it this way for a little while here. I know that John has flexibility being able to play on the right side as well. “But I think the guys play next to each other and then they start to develop a little chemistry, so I’d like to see how that evolves with Jason staying on the right side. And in the back of our minds, we know that we potentially could flip-flop it if we had to.” ——— NOTES: RB Trent Richardson is expected to continue practicing as he recovers from a shin injury. The Browns kept him out of Thursday’s game as a precaution, but Chudzinski hinted that it’s possible Richardson could play next week against Chicago. … Chudzinski said he’s been in contact with G Ryan Miller, who sustained a concussion when he was knocked out in a blocking drill at practice two weeks ago. Miller is still working his way through the NFL’s postconcussion program. “He says he’s feeling better,” Chudzinski said. “He’s still resting and that’s kind of where he’s at right now. But he said he’s starting to feel better and making progress.”

COLUMBUS — More than 280 permits are available to hunters wishing to construct a duck blind on several Ohio State Parks’ lakes this waterfowl hunting season. Lottery drawings will be held at the 16 participating state parks on the Aug. 17, along with lotteries for the use of 146 duck blinds available on two state wildlife areas. Interested applicants must appear in person at a participating state park office with proof of a 2013 Ohio hunting license, state wetlands stamp endorsement in the applicant’s name and a signed 2013 or 2012 federal duck stamp. Applicants under the age of 18 should have a parent or legal guardian present to sign the permit contract and must provide the required license and stamps. Participating state parks include Portage Lakes and West Branch in northeast Ohio; East Harbor, Indian Lake and Lake Loramie in northwest Ohio; Adams Lake, Buck Creek, Caesar Creek, Cowan Lake, East Fork, Hueston Woods and Rocky Fork in southwest Ohio; and Alum Creek, A.W. Marion, Buckeye Lake, Deer Creek and Delaware in central Ohio. Each hunter can apply for only one duck blind permit, and no one can apply or draw for another person. There is a $50 non-refundable permit fee for the state park lottery winners. All locations accept cash, checks or credit cards for payment, except for Portage Lakes where payment is by cash (exact change) or check only. Lottery winners have 45 days to construct their blinds, and all blinds must be dismantled by

March 15, 2014. Hunters wishing to participate in the lotteries at Delaware or Indian Lake state parks are advised that the nearby Delaware marina and the Indian Lake park office and commissary no longer sell hunting licenses and duck stamps. Hunters should purchase their license and stamp from another vendor prior to the lotteries. Waterfowl hunting opportunities are also available through lottery drawings for blinds at the Mercer Wildlife Area on Grand Lake St. Marys and the Mosquito Creek Wildlife Area adjacent to Mosquito Lake State Park. The drawings will be held at the respective wildlife area offices on Saturday, Aug. 17. There is no fee for use of the blinds at these areas. Lottery participants must also have a current Harvest Information Program (HIP) certification. Indian Lake will offer 35 blinds. Applications are accepted beginning at 8 a.m. with the drawing at 8:30 on the 17th at 12774 Ohio 235 North, Lakeview. Call 937-843-2717 for more information. Lake Loramie will offer 198 blinds and applications are accepted beginning at 7:30 a.m., with the drawing at 8 on the 17th at 4401 Fort Loramie-Swanders Road, Minster. Call 295-2011 for more information. There will be 71 blinds offered at the Mercer Wildlife Area. Applications are accepted beginning at 7:30 with the drawing at 8 on the 17th at the Wildlife Area Headquarters, 5116 Ohio 703 in Celina. Call 937-372-9261 for more information

Survey shows that 79 percent of Americans approve of hunting A recently released nationwide scientific survey by Responsive Management shows that 79 percent of Americans 18 years old and older approve of hunting, up five percentage points from 2011. This marks the highest level of support for hunting since 1995. Responsive Management has been tracking trends in public approval of hunting since 1995, and it has remained generally consistent during this time: 73 percent in 1995, 75 in 2003, 78 in 2006, 74 in 2011, and now at 79. At 79 percent, approval is the highest since Responsive Management has tracked it. The reasons for this increase are still unclear, but it may be related to the recent increase in hunting and shooting participation that has occurred. Since 2006, hunting participation has increased by 9 percent, according to the National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,

2011). Meanwhile, shooting participation has increased by 18 percent since 2009 (Responsive Management, 2013). Other studies on public opinion on hunting show that the strongest correlation with approval of hunting is knowing a hunter — over and above demographic variables or any other factor. With the increased number of hunters in the field and sport shooters at the range, it is possible that this increase is being reflected in support for hunting as well. Overall, the most recent study found that more than half of Americans (52 percent) strongly approve of hunting (79 percent strongly or moderately approve). At the other end of the spectrum, 12 percent disapprove (strongly or moderately) of hunting. Another 9 percent gave a neutral answer. Conducted in February 2013, the study surveyed 1,306 Americans 18 years old and older using random digit dialing.

Ohio Weekly Fishing Report CENTRAL OHIO Indian Lake (Logan County) - Saugeye are being caught along the south bank and around the Moundwood and Dream Bridge areas; try crankbaits and worm harnesses. Fish shoreline cover, lily pads and any rip rap on the shore for largemouth bass, try spinner baits, and crankbaits. Bluegills are still being caught around lily pads and in the channels, use wax worms, night crawlers or crickets. SOUTHWEST OHIO Acton Lake (Preble County) -Channel catfish are being caught at this lake in Hueston Woods State Park. Try fishing on the bottom using chicken livers or shrimp as bait. The shoreline area between the swimming beach and Sugar Camp area has been the best. Great Miami River (Miami, Montgomery, and Warren counties) -

Remember to ask permission before entering private property. Since the water levels are down, now is a great time to wade rivers and find holes to come back to later when the rivers are up. All fish like deep holes this time of year because the water is cooler, there are concentrations of bait, and oxygen levels are better. Catfish are the best bet this time of year. In Miami County, fair numbers of smallmouth bass and rock bass are being caught in the early morning and late evening hours in transition areas where deep and shallow water meet. Popular baits are soft crayfish and salted tube jigs. The fishing is slower on the Montgomery County portion of the Great Miami River but catfish are always hitting in many of the deep holes throughout the river. Popular spots on the river are the deeper water areas below the low head dams.

We’ve Got It All!

FRANCIS DRAKE What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Monday, Aug. 12, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a playful month! It’s a great time for vacations, romance, flirtations, sports events and activities with children. Make time to enjoy yourself! TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your primary focus at this time is on home, family and domestic needs. Discussions with a parent could be significant. Home repairs are likely. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your busy pace continues due to a jampacked schedule. Short trips, errands, conversations with others and increased reading and writing won’t let you rest! CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Although you’re focused on cash flow, earnings and money, essentially, you’re wondering about your values. You have to ask yourself — what really matters? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) With the Sun in your sign, this is your turn to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year. Take advantage of the fact that people and fortunate circumstances are attracted to you now. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Don’t hide your light under a bushel, even though your need for privacy and solitude is strong. Start to plan what you want your new year (birthday to birthday) to be all about. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Enjoy your increased popularity. Join clubs and groups. Sign up for classes. Make new friends. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Take advantage of the fact that people in authority see you in a positive light now. You don’t have to do anything special to impress them. It’s just what it is. Therefore, demand the advantage. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Travel anywhere if you can, because you need a change of scenery. You want to get outta Dodge. Explore new ideas with others, and talk to people from different cultures. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Focus on shared property, jointly held possessions, inheritances, taxes and debt. Clear up as much as you can while it’s this easy to do so. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You need far more sleep, because the Sun, which is your source of energy, is as far away from you as it gets all year. Respect your need for more rest. Zzzzzzzz. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Since you’re gung-ho to get better organized, give yourself the right tools to do a bang-up job. Buy cleaning equipment, paint, shelving, file folders whatever you need. Just do it. YOU BORN TODAY You respect the past, and many of you like history. You value tradition. Ethics are important to you. No matter how fun-loving and flamboyant you are, essentially you are a serious person who nevertheless enjoys being dramatic and over the top. Good news. This year might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big! Birthdate of: Pete Sampras, tennis player; Mark Knopfler, musician; Hayley Wickenheiser, hockey player.
