Cookbook From page A1 “We prefer that they be submitted by email at sdnrecipes@civitasmedia.com,” Speelman said. “Submitters may also include photos of their completed dishes, some of which will be published in the cookbook.” Recipes and photos will also be accepted in hard copy at the newspaper offices, 1451 N. Vandemark Road. Photos from cookbooks, magazines and websites will not be accepted. Photos must be of the dish as cooked by the recipe submitter. Photos of the cook holding the finished dish, or action photos of the cook making the recipe will be wel-

comed, too, Speelman noted. All people in the photos must be identified by name and city of residence. Children in photos must also be identified by parents’ names. All recipes must be received either by email or hard copy by 5 p.m., Oct. 4. All submissions must be emailed or typed. No handwritten submissions will be considered. Each submission must include the name of the recipe, the category in which it is submitted and the name, address, telephone number and email address of the cook. Children may submit

recipes in any category. Children who submit recipes must include their ages and their parents names in the contestant information they provide. Each submitter’s name will be entered into the drawing once, so people who send many recipes do not have more of a chance at a prize than someone who submits just one recipe. “We also hope that cooks will write a sentence or two about why they like a particular recipe or share a story about when they’ve served it. We especially want to hear about recipes in the Holiday Traditions category,”

40431221

Accidents

Speelman said. “How did this dish become a tradition in your house? What does it mean to your family and why? But we’d like to include interesting stories about dishes in any category when we publish this year’s cookbook.” The 2013 categories are as follows: • Main Events: Meat, poultry, seafood, cheese or pasta dishes that anchor a meal. • Sweets and Treats: Desserts, candies and tasty snacks. • Holiday Traditions: Recipes for the dishes that your family would miss if they weren’t part of a special holiday menu. • On the Side: Wholesome and tasty vegetable creations and side dishes that make a meal perfect. • One-Pot Meals: Casseroles, soups, stews and stick-to-your-ribs comfort foods that taste like home. • Bread Basket Bounty: Breads, muffins, rolls, biscuits, crackers, quick breads that smell yummy while they’re baking and taste even better than they smell. • Rise and Shine: Breakfast and brunch dishes. • Appetizers and Party Pleasers: Tidbits that light up your mouth in pleasure with every tiny bite. At least one submitted recipe in each category from each cook will be published in the Holiday Harvest Cookbook, which will be distributed in issues of the Sidney Daily News in November and also will be available to purchase in single copy at the newspaper’s offices. For information, call Patricia Ann Speelman at 498-5965.

VERSAILLES — Navy Seaman Marcus D. Grisez, son of Carey A. Whittington and Daniel G. Grisez, of Versailles, recently completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eight-week program, Grisez completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs,

first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety. An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness. The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Stations”. This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedica-

tion, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment. Its distinctly ”Navy” flavor was designed to take into account what it means to be a Sailor. Grisez is a 2008 graduate of Versailles High School of Versailles, Ohio.

Abuse education effort begins for 11th year As Catholic school students resume classes, the Partnering to Protect Children child abuse and peer abuse prevention is set to begin its 11th year of operation in Archdiocese of Cincinnati schools. Since 2003, a total of 54,116 students, 920 parents and 862 school staff members at the schools have taken part in the school-based program conducted by the Council on Child Abuse under contract from the Archdiocese. The council developed the program to help educators, parents and children in grades K-12 define and identify child abuse, peer abuse/bullying and other inappropriate behaviors, and teach strategies to address these problems in schools. First, council staff members make presentations to school personnel and parents prior to the presentations to children. Then trained professionals use videos, interactive discussions, small group activities, role-playing and follow-up handouts with the children. After classroom presentations, children have an opportunity to speak individually with council staff to ask questions or share concerns. Children’s disclosures requiring adult intervention are forwarded to the appropriate personnel or authorities for intervention and follow-up support. At the Archdiocesan schools involved in

the program since 2003, the council reports that there have been: • 2,251 children identified as needing intervention of some sort; • 1,495 disclosures of current, previous or possible bullying; • 455 disclosures of family or other concerns; • 88 disclosures of current, previous or possible sexual abuse; • 77 reports to Children’s Services; • 86 disclosures of current, previous or possible physical abuse. “Prevention education for adults and children have proven effective in the identification, intervention and prevention of child abuse and peer abuse,” said Eve Pearl, executive director of the Council on Child Abuse of Southern Ohio. “Research has shown that these prevention programs help create safer schools where children don’t fear teasing, bullying or violence, and can be more receptive to learning.” Before the creation of Partnering to Protect Children as an Archdiocese- coordinated and funded program, the Council on Child Abuse had supplied programs to 90 Archdiocesan schools on an individual basis from 1990 to 2002. Those efforts reached almost 26,000 students, almost 800 parents and 350 staff members. The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati is the 38th largest Catholic diocese in the country, with almost 500,000 Catholics, and has the sixth largest network of Catholic schools in terms of enrollment. The 19-county territory includes 214 parishes and 113 Catholic primary and secondary schools.

Woman convicted of assault in classroom brawl

COLUMBUS (AP) — A student who took credit for antiIslam fliers and racist cards posted at Oberlin College earlier this year called them a joke meant to get an “overreaction,” according to the student’s statements to campus security at the historically liberal Ohio college. The student also took credit for a large Nazi flag, which he also said he meant as a joke, and said he posted the head of Oberlin’s president onto a picture of Adolf Hitler, according to the statements contained in an Oberlin city police report.

The student, detained after allegedly being seen posting anti-Islam fliers in the college’s Science Center Feb. 27, denied involvement in other, earlier racist postings and said he was trying to show people had overreacted to them. The student, whose name was blacked out, said the people who put up earlier fliers were just looking for attention. “I put out these fliers to get a similar overreaction to prove this point,” the student said. A series of postings and incidents over the winter caused an uproar at Oberlin, enrollment 2,900, one of the nation’s first universities to admit blacks.

potentially unsecure, creating unsafe working conditions. Association president Larry Phillips said troopers are satisfied with the settlement, which makes the athletic style optional for everyday use. The leather buckle style still is required in certain circumstances, including for higher-ranking officers and at ceremonial occasions, classroom training and public speaking appearances. The patrol’s new leader, Col. Paul Pride, considers

the shoe issue more about comfort than safety and said he thinks there are bigger problems requiring troopers’ attention. But he said providing the chukka boot option is a “common-sense decision” and should help ensure troopers can refocus on their work. “If it means that they’re going to go out there and do their job better, and I’m able to equip them to do that, that’s an easy decision,” said Pride, who served as an assistant superintendent

before being selected for the patrol’s top job in late July. The union maintains the main issue was officer safety. Some troopers had slipped or lost a shoe while chasing after someone, Phillips said. Other concerns were raised about the materials and structure of the dressy shoe. Pride said the patrol wants its employees to have the best possible equipment, including their weapons, vehicles and footwear.

But under cross-examination, Deters pointed out that their own handwritten statements after the brawl said that the 15-year-old hit Allen first. A police officer testified that now-missing surveillance video of part of the fight showed Allen grabbing the 15-year-old and slamming her to the ground. The teacher who was in the hallway at the time and the two teenage witnesses said they never saw that. Deters suggested the surveillance video was deleted intentionally because it showed that the alleged victim was the aggressor. Allen has filed a still-pending federal lawsuit against police and the school over the missing video.

Deters also said it defies logic that Allen would plan to cause a fight at a public school with surveillance cameras and in front of a teacher and students, and where a police officer always is nearby. “Precious is not some crazy parent,” he said. “Please find her not guilty. She’s been through a lot.” In three days of testimony, Allen and the six other witnesses offered differing accounts of the

CINCINNATI (AP) — A jury on Friday convicted an Ohio woman of assault but acquitted her of trespassing in a high school classroom brawl involving her daughter and another teen accused of bullying the girl. Jurors reached that unanimous verdict after three days of testimony in the trial of Precious Allen, who had pleaded not guilty in the Feb. 7 fracas involving her daughter and a 15-yearold girl at Withrow High School in Cincinnati. Judge Melissa Powers sentenced Allen, 31, to probation, but said she could face up to six months in jail if she violates the terms. If convicted on both counts, Allen could have faced a year of jail time. In finding Allen guilty of assault, jurors agreed

with prosecutors that she knowingly caused or helped cause harm to the 15-year-old. In rejecting the trespassing charge, jurors sided with defense attorneys that Allen likely did not go to the school that day intending to commit an assault. When she testified earlier Friday, Allen tearfully told jurors that the 15-year-old girl had been bullying her daughter and started the fight by cursing at her, calling her names and shoving her face with an open hand, knocking her down. “I was shocked when she did it and I fell back,” Allen said. Before she knew it, her daughter and the other teen were fighting, she said. She said she immediately yanked her daughter away and took her into the hallway, after which the other teen “burst through then swinging.” “She was in a rage,”

An injunction, however, was issued in midAugust that ordered the family to resume treatment immediately until the issue was resolved. The hospital said the family only has visited once since then. McGregor said the girl’s illness — lymphoblastic lymphoma — is an aggressive form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and is very curable if she continues treatment.

Ousted EPA director will fight to keep job COLUMBUS (AP) — A veteran Ohio environmental regulator who says the administration of Republican Gov. John Kasichis forcing him to resign after pressure from the coal industry is fighting to keep his job. George Elmaraghy (elmuh-RAGH’-ee) has run the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency ’s Division of Surface Water since June 2005. He authored an email widely distributed earlier this week that said his resignation Sept. 13 comes after “considerable pressure” his division faced to accommodate the coal industry. Elmaraghy informed Ohio EPA Director Scott Nally in a new email Thursday that he didn’t want to retire and was withdrawing his resignation. EPA emails provided to The Associated Press show Nally has denied Elmaraghy’s request to stay on. Elmaraghy has hired a lawyer. He has worked at the Ohio EPA for 39 years.

Military jury convicts soldier in Fort Hood attack PAUL J. WEBER and WILL WEISSERT Associated Press

FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — A military jury on Friday convicted Maj. Nidal Hasan in the deadly 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood, making the Army psychiatrist eligible for the death penalty in the shocking assault against American troops by one of their own on home soil. There was never any doubt

that Hasan was the gunman. He acknowledged to the jury that he was the one who pulled the trigger on fellow soldiers as they prepared to deploy overseas to Iraq and Afghanistan. And he barely defended himself during a three-week trial. The unanimous decision on all 13 counts of premeditated murder made Hasan eligible for execution in the sentencing phase that begins Monday. “This is where members (of the jury) decide whether you

will live or whether you will die,” said Col. Tara Osborn, the trial judge. Hasan, who said he acted to protect Muslim insurgents abroad from American aggression, did not react to the verdict, looking straight at jurors as they announced their findings. After the hearing, relatives of the dead and wounded fought back tears. Some smiled and warmly patted each other’s shoulders as they left court. Because Hasan never denied

his actions, the court-martial was always less about a conviction than it was about ensuring he received a death sentence. From the beginning, the federal government has sought to execute Hasan, believing that any sentence short of a lethal injection would deprive the military and the families of the dead of the justice they have sought for nearly four years. Autumn Manning, whose husband, retired Staff Sgt. Shawn Manning, was shot six times

during the attack, wept when the verdict was read. She said she had been concerned that some charges might be reduced to manslaughter, which would have taken a death sentence off the table. “This is so emotional,” she said in a telephone interview from Lacey, Wash., where she and her husband live. “I’ve just been crying since we heard it because it was a relief. … We just wanted to hear the premeditated.”

Fire rages out of control in the Stanislaus National Forest Thursday. In California. A wildfire outside Yosemite National Park nearly quadrupled in size Thursday, prompting officers to warn residents in a gated community to evacuate their homes and leading scores of tourists to leave the area during peak season.

Huge Calif. wildfire spreads into Yosemite GOSIA WOZNIACKA Associated Press

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — A giant wildfire raging out of control spread into Yosemite National Park on Friday as authorities urged more evacuations in nearby communities where thousands have already been forced out by flames marching through the timbered slopes of the western Sierra Nevada. The fire hit the park at the height of summer season, as officials geared up for a busy Labor Day weekend. It has closed some backcountry hiking but was not threatening the Yosemite Valley region, one of California’s most popular tourist destinations.

The week-long blaze has spread to more than 165 square miles and was only 2 percent contained. It continued to grow in several directions, although “most of the fire activity is pushing to the east right into Yosemite,” said Daniel Berlant, spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The spectacular valley carved by glaciers offers visitors such iconic sights as the Half Dome and El Capitan rock formations and Bridalveil and Yosemite falls. Smoke blowing across the Sierra into the state of Nevada forced officials in several counties to cancel outdoor school activities and issue health advisories, especially for people with respiratory

Ex-con in prison for sneaking into jails NEW YORK (AP) — A convicted sex offender who repeatedly used phony correction department credentials to gain entry into New York City jails has been sentenced to 10 years in prison. Matthew Matagrano was sentenced Thursday. The 36-year-old Yonkers resident pleaded guilty last month to posing as a correction officer and sneaking into the Manhattan Detention Center, where he mingled with inmates for hours. During a Feb. 27 visit Matagrano assaulted an inmate and stole a $2,500 walkie- talkie. He also handed out cigarettes to inmates. Matagrano’s rap sheet includes a conviction for sodomy and sexual abuse. Police statements released in court report Matagrano said he repeatedly sneaked into jails because the people inside were “nice” and made him “feel important.”

problems. Authorities urged more evacuations in nearby communities where thousands have already been forced out by flames. The fire was threatening about 4,500 residences, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Already, the blaze has destroyed four homes and 12 outbuildings in several different areas. More than 2,000 firefighters were on the lines and one sustained a heat-related injury. While the park remained open, the blaze closed a 4-mile stretch of State Route 120, one of three entrances into Yosemite on the west side. Two other western routes and an eastern route were open.

Associated Press A supporter of Egypt’s ousted President Mohammed Morsi chants slogans against the Egyptian army during a march after the Friday prayer near the Al-Nour mosque in Cairo, Egypt, Friday, Aug. 23, 2013.

CAIRO (AP) — Supporters of Egypt’s deposed president, who once overwhelmed cities in the hundreds of thousands, changed tactics Friday by demonstrating in scattered, small rallies that avoided confronting a heavy military deployment waiting for them across the country. The low turnout signaled the strain on ousted leader Mohammed Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood, as it has trouble drawing large numbers of supporters and faces an increasingly skeptical Egyptian public wary of more bloodshed like that which followed the July 3 military coup

that overthrew him. Meanwhile, an intense security crackdown by the military-backed interim government has rounded up much of its leadership. The Brotherhood has “committed a strategic error last week by mixing peaceful protests with armed clashes with civilians,” said Abdullah elSinawi, an Egyptian newspaper columnist and analyst. “Many supporters are now staying away fearing that new civilian-on-civilian clashes will erupt.” Morsi supporters dubbed the day the “Friday of Martyrs,” in reference to the several hundred people that died in clashes with Egypt’s military during raids on street camps this month.

Syria ally Russia urges cooperation with UN RYAN LUCAS Associated Press

BEIRUT (AP) — Russia on Friday added its diplomatic weight to demands for a swift probe into an alleged chemical weapons attack that has injected new vigor into calls for international military action in Syria’s civil war. The U.S., Britain, France and other countries have pressed for a team of United Nations inspectors already in Syria to be granted immediate access to the sites of Wednesday’s purported gas attack that activists say killed more than 130 people. In an attempt to push things along, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is dispatching his disarmament chief to Damascus to press President Bashar Assad’s regime to agree to an investigation.

Timing is vital, experts say, because the more time passes, the harder it is to detect what chemicals — if any — were used. Immediate access also would allow inspectors to collect blood and soil samples themselves and safeguard the chain of custody of and the integrity of the investigation. But in the chaos and violence of Syria’s civil war, safe passage to the eastern Damascus suburbs in question would be difficult. That was made clear on Friday, as government artillery on the Qassioun plateau overlooking Damascus pounded those suburbs in the heaviest strikes in days. Booms from the artillery echoed over the city every few minutes, along with several rounds of rocket fire that raised flashes of light from the suburbs. At times, three or four plumes of smoke

could be seen billowing on the horizon. Syrian opposition figures and activists have reported death tolls from Wednesday’s attack ranging from 136 to 1,300. If confirmed, even the most conservative tally would make it the deadliest alleged chemical attack in Syria’s civil war. The Assad regime has denied the allegations, calling them “absolutely baseless” and accusing the opposition of staging the whole affair to smear the government and provoke outside intervention. Russia, which is a close ally of Damascus and its most powerful protector on the international stage, also has suggested the opposition of staging the attack to discredit the regime. But on Friday, Moscow also called on both sides of the conflict to facilitate an investigation.

Law firm opens offices, adds jobs DAYTON — Gudorf Law Group has opened two new offices, in Troy and Centerville, and has hired three new full-time attorneys: David D. Brannon, John Anthony Castro and Brian M. Wiggins. This comes as a result of increasing in demand for the firm’s services in its existing practice areas of estate planning and elder law, as well as a growing demand in new areas such as domestic and international tax law, and probate litigation. The new hires bring the total number of full-time employees at the firm to 11. Firm owner Ted Gudorf said this latest expansion reflects the current state of the practice. “We are able to expand at this exciting pace because of the trust established with our existing clients and colleagues, and the reputation that our attorneys, paralegals and

staff have developed through a genuine commitment to our community. The skills and experience that David, John and Brian bring to our firm will further enhance our ability to provide services that exceed our clients’ expectations.” Brannon joins Gudorf Law Group after working eight years at Dwight Brannon & Associates and will lead the firm’s probate litigation practice area. Throughout his career, Brannon has acquired a skill set that that involves solving disputes between beneficiaries of life insurance, IRAs, 401(k)s, pensions, financial accounts, divorce decrees, estate assets, and other real and personal property. David earned his bachelor’s degree at Miami University and his juris doctorate at the University Of Dayton School Of Law. John Anthony Castro comes to

Gudorf Law Group as a recent graduate from Georgetown University Law Center’s Master of Laws in Taxation Program with a Certificate in International Taxation. He earned his J.D. from The University of New Mexico Law School and his bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M. Throughout his education, he has developed a niche in international tax and asset protection planning strategies for corporate clients, as well as a focus in federal tax advisory, tax controversy and litigation, tax-exempt organization services, and private client services. He will assist in managing and expanding the firm’s tax law sector. Originally from Enon, Brian M. Wiggins joins Gudorf Law Group’s Estate Planning and Elder Law practice group after receiving his bachelor’s degree from the University

of Toledo and his law degree from University of Dayton School of Law. Before pursuing his longtime goal of going to law school, Wiggins worked in the financial services industry for four years. Wiggins served as a law clerk for two years before joining the firm full time. Aside from expanding its payroll, Gudorf Law Group has also opened up two new offices in Troy and Centerville. The firm officially moved into its Centerville location, located at 1800 Lyons Road, in December 2012 and moved into its Troy office, located at 220 W. Main St., in January 2013. “The two new offices in Troy and Centerville, combined with the recent acquisition of our Clayton location, will allow us to better serve the entire Miami Valley, as we will now be within closer proximity to all of our clients,” said Gudorf.

ST. MARYS — Cheryl Walter of Stone Garden Studio in St. Marys recently had two photographs, “Camouflaged Cupid” and “Not Too Prim and Proper,” accepted into the General Collection of Professional Photographers of America’s 2013 International Photographic Competition. A third image, “Colored Curves” was accepted into the prestigious Loan Collection. Walter’s work will be on display at the Phoenix Convention Center, Jan. 12-14, in Phoenix. This International Photographic Exhibition is held in conjunction with Imaging USA, an annual convention and expo for professional photographers and several photographic associations. A panel of 43 eminent jurors from across the United States selected the top photographs from nearly 5,000 total submitted entries at Gwinnett Technical College in Georgia. Judged against a standard of excellence, just over 1,800 images were selected for the General Collection and just 682 were selected for the esteemed Loan Collection—the best of the best. The Loan

Collection images will all be published in the much-anticipated “Loan Collection” book, and over 200 selected General Collection images will be published in the “Showcase” book by Marathon Press. Walter’s photographs will be in the International Photographic Exhibition alongside other top photographic works from the competition and traveling and special invitational displays. These images constitute one of the world’s largest annual exhibits of professional photography gathered simultaneously under one roof. Professional Photographers of America (PPA) is the largest international nonprofit association created by professional photographers, for professional photographers. Almost as long-lived as photography itself, PPA has roots back to 1869. It has never stopped growing and looking for new ways to assist its now 26,000 members through protection, education and resources for their continued success in the industry. The PPA’s website is www.ppa.com.

Banks give donation to college Golf event raises awareness CELINA — For more than 50 years, the Western Ohio Educational Foundation (WOEF) has responded to the educational needs of residents in Auglaize, Darke, Mercer and Van Wert counties by providing the resources to allow residents access to college instruction. In 1962, the foundation secured the funding to build and operate an institution of higher education. Since then, WOEF has remained strongly committed to the success of the Lake Campus. Minster Bank recently donated a $1,000 to the Academic Excellence Scholarship which recognizes top students from area school districts when they select the Lake Campus to further their education. These students are awarded $3,000 and

22 area high schools in Auglaize, Darke, Mercer and Van Wert counties are eligible. Due to the generous support of our donors, over $150,000 is endowed in this scholarship fund. Applications for next year’s award will be available online this fall. Recently, Mercer Savings Bank also made a donation to the Mechanical Engineering Program at Wright State University-Lake Campus. In celebration of Mercer Savings Bank’s 125th Anniversary, the bank is giving back to the community. Mercer Savings Bank is donating $125 to 125 different charities and organizations for 125 days. Mercer Savings Bank’s goal is to give back to the communities that have contributed to Mercer Savings Bank’s 125 years of excel-

lence. On Aug. 9, 2013 Mercer Savings Bank donated $125 to Wright State University LakeCampus Mechanical Engineering program. This donation will help support program activities. For nearly a century, Minster Bank has been helping individuals, families and businesses achieve their dreams by offering a variety of personal, business, and private wealth management services. As longtime friends of the university, Minster Bank has contributed and supported the WOEF scholarship program and the Lake Campus Facilities Capital Campaign. These donations allow a greater number of students in our region to have access to higher education and earn advanced degrees at the Lake Campus.

ST. MARYS — Grand Lake Hospice, in St. Marys, held its second “Putt for the Love of Hospice” event on July 21 at St. Marys Miniature Golf Course at K.C. Geiger Park.

Aug. 23, 1913 A bad freight wreck occurred at Anna about midnight last night, when 13 freight cars, mostly coal cars, were derailed and piled in a heap about 100 feet north of the C.H. & D. depot at that place. A tramp, who was noticed on the coal cars when the train passed through Sidney, is thought to be under the debris but his body has not yet been found. nnn At the regular meeting of city council last evening it was suggested that the attention of the railway officials be called to the dangerous situation existing at the foot of Fair Avenue where the tracks are so close to the edge of the street that it is hazardous for vehicles when electric cars are coming down the hill.

ROACH: My brother, who will be 70 in October, was diagnosed with LGL leukemia. I would appreciate any information on this cancer that you can give. — L.R. ANSWER: Large granulocyte lymphocytic leukemia is a rare form of leukemia. It illustrates a paradox of liquid cancers: It isn’t curable, but it is indolent, with almost 90 percent of people being alive five years after diagnosis, and more than half of people alive after 10 years. Other moreaggressive leukemias are more likely curable, since many of our treatments are directed against very active cells.Not everybody with LGL leukemia needs treatment at the time of diagnosis. Treatment is given when the blood cell lines become low, whether they are red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets. Chemotherapy is the standard treatment. DR. ROACH WRITES: I have written several columns

about C. difficile infection. Numerous people wrote, including a few pharmacists, to remind me that the IV form of vancomycin can be compounded for oral use for a fraction of the cost (one writer said his out-of-pocket cost for oral tablets was $1,100, and for compounded, $80). Not every pharmacy can or will do this. Another writer wanted me to mention fidaxomycin (Dificid), a new and very expensive treatment for C. diff. Its website had a “$200 off” coupon when I accessed it. Many people wrote to tell me that fecal transplant is considered experimental and not covered by their insurance. Another very helpful comment I received told me about a resource, NeedyMeds, which helps people who meet certain income criteria with expensive medications, including oral vancomycin but many others as well. It can be found at www. needymeds.org.

Aug. 23, 1938 A business change is being announced this week in which the ownership of the Pure Oil filling station, corner of North Street and Main Avenue, is being taken over by Henry G. Berger. The station was formerly operated as the Berger and Ross station. The same station attendants and mechanics will remain with Mr. Berger. They are Richard Fergus and Doyl Harris. nnn A carrier pigeon, apparently exhausted by a long flight, dropped down in the courthouse yard shortly after noon yesterday to startle pedestrians passing through the square. The bird was picked up by County Commissioner William Allenbaugh and taken into the courthouse, where caretaker William Bauman took it in charge, giving it food and water. The pigeon which carried identification tags, was to be released this afternoon.

Aug. 23, 1988 Going to the right party is one way of breaking into big-time theater, or at least that is how it worked for Tracy McCrum, formerly of Sidney. “I was at the right place at the right time,” says Miss McCrum who is assistant production manager with The Joffrey Ballet, an internationally known organization. She adds that the group is usually referred to as “the Joffrey.” nnn COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – David Letterman fans will watch a butter sculpture of frequent guest Jack Hanna melt, making more of a mess than most of Hanna’s friends do. A crew from the Letterman show combed the Ohio State Fair over the weekend looking for acts and selected the butter sculpture of Hanna holding a lion club. It will deteriorate over a one-week period on the NBC-TV talk show. nnn These news items from past issues of the Sidney Daily News are compiled by the Shelby County Historical Society (498-1653) as a public service to the community.

Odds and Ends WINDSOR, Vt. (AP) — A pile of goat manure spontaneously caught fire, spreading stench and wrinkling noses through a Vermont town but causing no damage, officials said. The odor evoked “a damp kind of burning leaves or brush fire,” Windsor Town Manager Tom Marsh said. A worker on her way to milk goats discovered the fire in the 120-cubic-yard manure pile around 3 a.m. Wednesday, said George Redick, owner of the 800-goat Oak Knoll Dairy. He and others put out the flames with water from a hose but the pile continued to smolder. He planned to call the fire department later in the morning, but firefighters were already searching for the source of the smell by 6:30 a.m. Marsh said he could smell the fire at his hilltop home five miles away. He called it “a little disconcerting, because it was a very strong smell.” Redick says the manure would typically have been spread around the farm earlier in the year, but the rainy season and other factors kept that from happening. He said he used to think spontaneous combustion was make-believe. “Now I’m a believer,” he said.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Sunday, Aug. 25, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Issues about work or your health might be confusing today. Do not take things at face value. Make sure you get your facts straight. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Difficulties with romantic partners might arise today because of misunderstandings. Similarly, confusion when dealing with children might also arise. (Guard against accidental poisoning with tots.) GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Family discussions might be perplexing today. (Conversations are like two ships passing in the night.) This is a poor day to discuss important topics. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You might spend a lot of time daydreaming today. You also might feel that your mind is in a fog or that conversations are fuzzy. Indeed, all these things might be true! LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) If you are discussing financial matters today, make sure your facts are right. You might be deceived accidentally or on purpose. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You might feel anxious today and might not know why. You also might feel listless and lacking in enthusiasm for life. Don't worry about this; it's a passing influence. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Don't be quick to believe rumors or hidden secrets today, because they are likely false. In fact, confusion is rampant and misunderstandings are rife. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might feel like others are off-base today, especially in group discussions. Or perhaps a friend sounds one short of a six-pack? Take everything with a grain of salt. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a poor day for important discussions with authority figures, because people are confused or might be working with the wrong information. Outright deception and confusion will cloud issues. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) If you think someone is stringing you along today, you are probably right. In other words, if something seems to be fishy, it is! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a poor day for business transactions or decisions about inheritances and shared property. In fact, it's an easy day to be swindled or cheated! PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Your mental buffers and filters are not working today, which means that all kinds of stimuli and information are bombarding you. This is why you won't know what you can believe or why you will believe something that is wrong (and not suspect it). YOU BORN TODAY You are flamboyant, sexy and charismatic. You're also quite physical, which is why you attack life with enthusiasm. You like to be admired, and you know how to charm others. You also like to have a good time (and you have a reputation for doing so). Many of you have secrets or lead a double life. This year, an interesting choice will arise. Choose wisely.

Go Red Goes North 2013

Go Red Goes North is an initiative by the American Heart Association to bring the Go Red movement to the communities north of the I-70/75 corridor. This health and wellness event and luncheon will be held on Thursday, September 12, 2013 from 10 am to 1 pm. at the Fort Piqua Plaza Banquet Center in Piqua and is presented by Upper Valley Medical Center. A health and wellness expo will be featured from 10 – 11:30 where vendors will be on hand offering everything from blood pressure checks to chair massages. A heart healthy lunch will be served from 11:30 to 1 pm and the keynote speaker will be Holly Hoffman, from the reality TV show, “Survivor Nicaragua.” Holly was the last woman standing on that show and has a message of survival and hope that will inspire and encourage everyone in attendance with her amazing story. In keeping with the messaging of the Go Red campaign, the goal is to educate and empower attendees to know their numbers and take control of their health. This is the fourth year for the Go Red Goes North event. More than 200 attendees are expected. Along with Upper Valley Medical Center, other sponsors include Wilson Memorial Hospital, Medical Mutual of Ohio, Midmark, CompuNet Clinical Laboratories, Troy Daily News, Piqua Daily Call, Sidney Daily News, Record Herald and WPTW/Muzzy Broadcasting. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 937-853-3102.

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women, and affects more than 42 million women in the United States. However, these women should not have to fight heart disease alone. Because heart disease is fought all day, every day – not just in doctor’s offices and hospitals – women need a community of heart sisters who can relate to their fears, offer around-the-clock encouragement and share their own courageous stories. Support for women who are dealing with this often silent, hidden and misunderstood killer just got a little easier through the American Heart Association’s Go Red Heart Match – a program that connects women with others who understand their journey – the pain, the victories and everything in between. Ultimately, women can find their own heart sister in Go Red Heart Match and they will no longer fight heart disease on her own!

Why Join the Go Red Heart Match?

Accountability & Encouragement: A recent survey of Heart Match participants showed that approximately 40 percent are now exercising more and eating more heart-healthy foods. Another 25 percent started taking blood pressure or cholesterol medication and 8 percent quit smoking. Plus, nearly half of women surveyed encouraged a friend or family member to talk to their doctor about their risk for heart disease.

Rehabilitation:

Data shows that cardiac rehabilitation/secondary prevention (CR/SP) programs reduce cardiovascular risk and event rates, foster healthy behaviors and promote active

lifestyles.

Of eligible patients, only 14 to 35 percent of heart attack survivors and 31 percent of patients after coronary artery bypass surgery participate in CR/SP programs. In particular, patients who are women, belong to ethnic minorities, are elderly and have low socioeconomic status have lower participation rates than white men and represent specific high-risk groups to be target for referral.

A heart attack survivor in Michigan needed help. Depression had sapped her energy and left her in a post-heart attack stupor she couldn’t emerge from. She desperately needed someone to talk to, someone who understood what she was going through. She found Janine Krolikowski, a mentor in the American Heart Association’s Go Red Heart Match program. Krolikowski knew all too well how her new friend felt. In 2004, she’d suffered a heart attack at age 46. An emotional nosedive is normal, Krolikowski told her fellow survivor. Give it time, it’ll subside, she assured her. “No matter who you are, heart disease comes with lots of questions and fears and anxieties,” said Krolikowski, of Royal Oak, Mich. “Sometimes you need a little camaraderie from someone who’s been there.” Heart disease is the No. 1 health threat for women. It kills more women than all forms of cancer combined. But women don’t have to fight heart disease on their own. Heart Match provides an online gathering place for women who want to give or receive one-on-one support as they fight heart disease or stroke. Women simply create a free online profile that describes their experience. Then, they search for a match by age, heart condition, or other factors important to them. For two-time stroke survivor Shermane Winters-Wofford, her Heart Match reached out for encouragement to start living heart-healthy after a high blood pressure diagnosis. The two women now motivate each other to exercise and eat better. Winters-Wofford, of St. Louis, Mo., even emails medication reminders to her Heart Match, who lives in New Jersey. “Women are the heart of the house, but what are we doing for ourselves and our bodies,” said Winters-Wofford, a 41-year-old mother of three boys. “By talking to other women and finding your Heart Match, you can help each other find that balance. Maybe what they’re doing works for you, maybe what you’re doing works for them. It’s all in the connection.” It’s a connection Heart Match members make through email, social media sites like Facebook, over the phone, or in person. Myrna Aguilar, who has a family history of heart disease, is eager to connect with a prevention buddy far beyond her back door. Still in search of a Heart Match, the 36-year-old from South Gate, Calif., hopes to exchange hearthealthy recipes and exercise tips. “Having someone hundreds or thousands

Sidney Woman Struggles to Breathe and Live Gets A Second Chance at Life By Beth Langefels, Communications Director, American Heart Association Susan Puthoff of Sidney was living her life like most busy women do these days. Working full time, this wife, mother and grandmother didn’t have a lot of time to focus on herself or her own health, knew she had high blood pressure, but also knew her doctor was helping her address that. “I was on my way into work in April of this year,” she said. “And I got out of my car and walked the short distance into the building and I was out of breath and just seemed like I couldn’t go anymore.” Puthoff’s severe shortness of breath, along with what she described as a “heavy feeling” in her chest and swelling in her ankles, continued throughout that day. Attributing these symptoms to a flu bug, she left work early and called her doctor. “My doctor recommended I see a cardiologist, just in case,” she said.

of miles away who’s saying, ‘You can do this’ and ‘I’m here for you,’ that’s a powerful resource for all women,” Aguilar said. In Minnesota, Maria Legatt found support close to home. Legatt met Keilee Miller through Go Red For Women only 12 days after Miller’s heart transplant in March 2010 at age 30. Legatt’s heart was failing and she knew she’d soon be on the same path to transplant. As Legatt’s health worsened, she didn’t know how to deal with the emotions. “I started calling Keilee quite often because no one else really understood. You hear your own voice back at you,” said Legatt, 34, who underwent a heart transplant in August 2011. Post-transplant, Miller became Legatt’s sounding board for everything from weird symptoms to what to expect next. “There’s such anxiety when you wake up and you don’t know what’s going to happen that day. But if you have someone saying, ‘I’ve been through that and this is what happened to me next,’ then you can expect it and it can ease your mind,” Legatt said. For out-of-the-ordinary symptoms, Miller would urge Legatt to call the doctor. “It’s like an extra mom there,” Legatt said. Heart Match provides personal support, but participants should talk to their healthcare providers for medical advice. Not wanting Legatt to lose her “spunk,” Miller kept pushing her friend along with a hopeful mantra: Let the transplant be a part of you, but don’t let it define you. “Maria always tells me that I’m her inspiration, but she’s my inspiration too,” Miller said. Krolikowski now has two Heart Matches. Almost every day, she’s on the hunt for a new tidbit to send—the latest research, a healthy recipe, risk factor news. And in helping them, she helps herself. “I want to improve my health. I don’t want to have heart disease in my life, and sometimes it’s easier to ignore things,” Krolikowski said. “Heart Match helps me stay healthy, to stay on target with my diet and exercise. It’s a proactive fight against heart disease. And we do it together.” Join Heart Match and connect with a woman who truly understands your journey—the pain, the victories and everything in between.

“And I did end up getting some medication for the swelling that also helped relieve my shortness of breath.” The symptoms, however, returned within a few days and Puthoff eventually ended up being admitted to the hospital. “While at Upper Valley Medical Center they first thought I was in congestive heart failure,” she said. “But eventually testing revealed that I had a mitral valve malfunction.” Puthoff eventually had surgery at Ohio State University in Columbus in June to repair her valve and remained hospitalized for ten days. After returning home, she began cardio rehab at Upper Valley. “I’ve been going to rehab since my doctor released me - about three times each week,” she said. “It really has helped me get strong and feel better and I enjoy it very much. I look forward to doing the exercises and I know how important it is to not only get physically stronger but mentally stronger. I also understand now why exercise is so important for my health.” Puthoff will be returning to her job as a licensed practical nurse at a nursing home in Minster on August 19th and is proud to say she has lost more than 40 pounds since her surgery. “I work out on a treadmill and a bicycle and I lift weights and I’m working towards losing 15 more pounds,” she said. She is also working with her family members on changing their diets and eating healthier, which has been a process. “I’ve learned to read labels and not add a lot of extra salt when I’m cooking,” Puthoff said. “I tell my husband and my daughter and son in law that they don’t need to eat all that extra salt and that it’s a lifestyle change.” Among her biggest blessings are grandsons Kole and Hayden Egbert, 13 and 10, who have been instrumental in helping their grandmother during her recovery. “My grandsons live right down the road and have taken care of me all summer,” Puthoff said. “They have fixed me lunch and lifted heavy laundry. I feel very lucky to be alive because when I felt so horrible in the hospital and didn’t care if I lived or died and then I made it, I knew I was blessed every day. I truly believe in the power of prayer.”

Women’s Signs of a Heart Attack Overview More women die of cardiovascular disease than from the next four causes of death combined, including all forms of cancer. But 80 percent of cardiac events in women could be prevented if women made the right choices for their hearts involving diet, exercise and abstinence from smoking. Make it your mission to learn all you can about heart attacks and stroke — don’t become a statistic. CALL 9-1-1

Heart Attack

A heart attack occurs when the blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, usually by a blood clot. If this clot cuts off the blood flow completely, the part of the heart muscle supplied by that artery begins to die.

Signs of a Heart Attack

1. Uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center of your chest. It lasts more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back. 2. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach. 3. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort. 4. Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or light-headedness. 5. As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and back or jaw pain. If you have any of these signs, don’t wait more than five minutes before calling for help.

Davis belts two homers, Brewers beat Reds CINCINNATI (AP) — Khris Davis hit a pair of tworun homers in consecutive at-bats for the first multihomer game of his career, powering the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-4 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night. Scooter Gennett also homered for Milwaukee, which won at Great American Ball Park for only the second time in seven games this season. The Reds lost for only the fifth time in their last 17 games, a surge that has tightened the NL Central race. They came in a season-high 18 games over .500. Davis connected in the sixth off Homer Bailey and again in the eighth off Alfredo Simon (5-4), who had a rough inning. He also gave up Gennett’s solo homer, which was upheld on review. Gennett also singled and doubled and scored twice. Rob Wooten (2-0) hit a batter during his one inning in relief. Zack Cozart singled home a run in the eighth off Brandon Kintzler. Jim Henderson gave up a hit in the ninth while getting his 20th save in 23 chances, leaving him with 14 straight scoreless appearances. The Brewers played their first game since Ryan Braun acknowledged in a statement that he used performance-enhancing drugs while recovering from an injury in 2011, when he won the National League MVP award. Players called it a good first step for Braun, who is serving a 65-game suspension from Major League Baseball. Davis rejoined the Brewers when Braun was suspended, his third stint of the season. He’s hit all eight of his homers in the 23 games since, including the two-run shot that put Milwaukee ahead 3-2 in the sixth. His next homer snapped a 3-all tie. Bailey repeatedly went deep in the count to batters and retired the side in order only once during his six innings. Norichika Aoki singled home a run in the third. Aramis Ramirez doubled ahead of Davis’ homer to left-center field in the sixth off Bailey, who is 2-7 career against Milwaukee. The Reds got a pair of runs in the fourth off Yovani Gallardo with the help of an error. Brandon Phillips singled, Ryan Ludwick walked, and both runners scored when Cozart singled to center and Carlos

Hamlin grabs pole at Bristol

BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) — Denny Hamlin, searching for anything to save his season, got a slight boost Friday with a pole-winning run at Bristol Motor Speedway. Hamlin turned a lap 128.969 mph around the 0.533mile bullring to put his Toyota in the top starting spot for Saturday night’s race. Although it’s his fourth pole of the season, it’s his first career pole at Bristol, where Hamlin is the defending race winner. But he heads into the race in search of anything positive: He’s 25th in points — largely because he missed four races with a fractured vertebra suffered in a crash at California — and entered Bristol stuck in a miserable nine-race slump in which he hasn’t logged a finish higher than 18th. Although he wants to win a race, he’ll take any sort of minor victory. “It’s by far the worst run, these nine races, in my career,” he said. “A lot of it is our own doing. We got off track for a couple races because we’ve blown right front tires in consecutive weeks and we started changing our setups and we couldn’t find anything that was very good with that. That burnt another three, four weeks. We’ve had horsepower cut back. But we’re headed in the right direction. “At any moment, we can go from a 25th-place car to winning a pole and winning the race. There’s not a whole lot of teams that can say they can win at any moment, but I feel like we can.” Hamlin’s lap was good enough to hold off five-time Bristol winner Kurt Busch, who qualified second with a lap of 128.770. It’s the seventh front-row starting spot of the season for Busch, who is suddenly a hot commodity on the free-agent market with an offer to join Stewart-Haas Racing next season.

Bengals-Cowboys: Romo still looking for TD ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys’ first-team offense are still looking for their first touchdown this preseason with Bill Callahan calling the plays. Eight-time Pro Bowl tight end Jason Witten, coming off a record-setting season, still doesn’t even have a catch. “Yeah, don’t want to hurt that spleen, you know,” Witten joked this week about the injury he sustained last preseason before his 110 catches, an NFL single-season record for tight ends. There really is no reason to be too concerned about Romo and Witten, but it would be nice to get in the end zone Saturday night in what will likely be their most extensive and last game action before things count for real. “Absolutely,” Witten said. “It’s all right though. You work on it in practice doing that stuff and this is the same system even though it’s a different play-caller, I’m sure that will all work out.” Dallas plays the fourth of its five preseason games, the first at home, against Cincinnati. It comes two weeks before the season opener against the New York Giants. The five series Romo has played this preseason have resulted in a field goal, a missed field goal, a punt and lost fumbles at the end of two big plays. The only score came after a drive started inside the Oakland 20 and lost 4 yards before the kick. Last weekend in a 12-7 loss at Arizona, Romo completed 7 of 10 passes for 142 yards but was undone by two fumbles at end of completed passes, one inside the 10 and

another by Dez Bryant. Those were the first of five first-half turnovers by the Cowboys, and six overall. “There were a lot of good things in the game, really in all three phases,” Cowboys

coach Jason Garrett said. “I think we have grown each of three weeks of the preseason. We made progress in each of those areas and there were a lot of really good individual plays. … The overwhelming story of the ball game

was the six turnovers and one takeaway.” It will be a homecoming of sorts for thirdyear Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton, who played the first game of his TCU senior season at the Cowboys’ stadium, a victory over Oregon State that started a 13-0 season culminating with a Rose Bowl victory. Dalton is first quarterback to lead the Bengals to the playoffs each of his first two seasons, and most of their offense is mostly intact from a year ago. “There hasn’t been a whole lot of new learning gong on so far,” Dalton said. “Everybody basically knows what we’re doing. That’s going to make us better going into the season.” The Bengals’ starting offense last week had 220 yards, including 115 yards passing and a touchdown by Dalton while going 9-of-14 passing, and built a 17-3 lead against Tennessee. Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green might be even back for a few plays against the Cowboys. Green bruised his left knee during the first training camp workout and returned to practice last week without playing so far in the Bengals’ two preseason victories. Bengals starting running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis sat out last weekend’s game just to get a rest, providing an opportunity for 5-foot-9 Giovani Bernard, the second-round pick who had seven carries for 37 yards and a touchdown and turned a short pass into a 22-yard gain against the Titans. Bernard is expected to get a lot of time this season as the backup running back and on passing plays.

He saved the season, but he’s still No. 2 QB COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — It was during a spring workout when someone mentioned to Kenny Guiton that, no matter what, he would always be remembered for one game. “Yes, sir. That’s pretty cool,” he said with a wide grin. “That’s something I have to live on for the rest of my life. I’m happy that got to happen.” “That” was Ohio State’s game last Oct. 20 against Purdue. With a perfect season teetering on the brink, Guiton stepped in for injured standout quarterback Braxton Miller and etched his name forever in the memory banks of Buckeyes fans. In one of the few appearances of his career when a game was still in doubt, Ohio State’s backup quarterback, just moments after he threw an interception, led the Buckeyes 61 yards in the final 47 seconds for a touchdown and a two-point conversion that sent the game to overtime. Then he directed traffic as the Buckeyes hung on for a dramatic 29-22 victory. It was an improbable eighth victory in a season that would end up 12-0. Miller remembers the exchange he and his good friend Guiton had just before Miller was helped off the field and then taken to the hospital for evaluation. “He told me when I went down, he said, ‘I got you, man,’” Miller remembered. “So I felt good going into the ambulance.” No matter how long he lives or where he goes, there will likely always be someone around who will recall the day that Guiton, a little-used backup from Texas who snared a scholarship offer only because other big names turned down Ohio State, stepped into

the spotlight. Now, almost a year later, Guiton is once again a backup and once again trying to make the best of it. “It’s tough,” he said of his role as Miller’s relief pitcher. “But I keep my head up. I always try to stay ready to go. I continue to do that.” Even though the games must last forever with Miller taking almost every snap for the past two years, Guiton remains upbeat and popular. He has a ready smile to almost any question. He’s had ups and downs in his Ohio State career, but always seems to see the glass as half full. No wonder his coaches and teammates think so much of him. Ohio State quarterbacks coach and cooffensive coordinator Tom Herman calls Guiton one of the best backups in the nation, a player capable enough to start for maybe AP Photo/Jay LaPrete, File half of the country’s teams.

Former Knick Meminger found dead

NEW YORK (AP) — Dean Meminger, the former Marquette guard who played a reserve role on the New York Knicks’ 1973 NBA championship team, was found dead Friday in a Manhattan hotel room. He was 65. New York City police said staff at the Hamilton Heights Hotel found Meminger unconscious and unresponsive inside a room and emergency medical personnel pronounced him dead. Police said there were no signs of trauma and that the cause of death hadn’t been determined. They said an investigation is ongoing. “We want to thank everyone for their prayers and condolences during this difficult time for our family,” Meminger’s family said in a statement. “Dean ‘The Dream’ Meminger touched the hearts of so many on

Through basketball and education, he helped countless people around the country receive scholarships, high school and college admissions, and even employment.” Meminger averaged 6.1 points in six seasons with the Knicks and Atlanta Hawks. A former New York City prep star at Rice High School, Meminger led Marquette to a 78-9 mark in three varsity seasons, averaging 18.8 points. He averaged 21.2 points as a senior in 1970-71 and was drafted 16th overall by the Knicks. Meminger had short coaching stints with the New York Stars in the Women’s Basketball League, the Albany Patroons in the CBA and the Long Island Knights in the USBL. He coached Manhattanville College in 2003-04.

In this June 30, 2012 file photo, Indianapolis Colts’ Andrew Luck, left, and Cleveland Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden tour the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For Luck and Weeden, tonight may be their last big test of the preseason.

Browns, Colts ready for preseason tuneup INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck and Brandon Weeden have come a long way in a year. The two bright-eyed rookies who took turns staring at Hall of Fame busts during last summer’s rookie symposium are now established starters and franchise cornerstones. So when they meet again tonight, Luck and Weeden will be following a different preseason script — playing at least one half and likely into the third quarter as they try to fine-tune their offenses before the scores and games start counting. “This is the dress rehearsal, the most extended time, a chance to really go out there and hopefully put some good stuff on tape and if it’s not all good, a chance to fix it before the opener,” Luck said. “So there’s a lot of focus going into this game.” Not just for the starting quarterbacks in Indianapolis and Cleveland, either. The Colts (1-1), like most NFL teams, spent this week simulating a regular-season schedule of team meetings, practice and mapping out game plans. Even longtime veterans such as Robert Mathis and Cory Redding understand this is the one preseason game that matters most. While nobody should expect to see a flurry of trick plays or complex blitz packages, most starters will stay on the field longer and those on the cut line will get one last chance to impress coaches before the cut down to 75. For Luck and Weeden, there are other things to work on. Both are still getting accustomed to new offenses and new

offensive coordinators. Again. Weeden, who had to win a quarterback competition for the second straight year, has led Cleveland (2-0) on six scoring drives in two games and will be out to prove that new coach Rob Chudzinski made the right call after selecting him as the starter Tuesday. “I’ve worked hard. I’m excited about what we have going on and our progress,” Weeden said. “Now we just got to keep it rolling. We got to keep going. I feel comfortable. I’m excited. I love this system.” Luck has never had to contend with that sort of challenge. He became the incumbent the instant Indy parted ways with Peyton Manning and decided to take Luck with the No. 1 overall draft pick. But, like Weeden, he’s been far from perfect. Luck came into training camp with three primary goals: Improving his completion percentage, reducing the number of interceptions and winning more games. But a rash of injuries has made it tough to show the improvement. Indy is keeping its top two tight ends — Dwayne Allen (right foot) and Coby Fleener (right knee) — on the sideline Saturday. Running back Ahmad Bradshaw (right foot) will miss his third straight game, too, and now starting guard Mike McGlynn will sit out with a bruised knee. “I think we’ll make some adjustments to really accommodate some of the looks that we expect from Cleveland,” Colts offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton said. “But it’s still our goal to go out and be efficient as an offense.”

Weeden also has a tough task after losing two key running backs with injuries — Dion Lewis (broken leg) and Montario Hardesty (knee surgery) — and working with a receiving group that is still trying to prove itself. Running back Trent Richardson made his preseason debut last week, and Brandon Jackson, who is trying to win the job as Richardson’s backup, is likely to get extensive playing time against the Colts. Cleveland also will be without first-round draft pick Barkevious Mingo, who is recovering from a bruised lung. Those aren’t concerns for the 30-year-old Weeden, who remains confident he can get the job done. “I wasn’t worried about my end of the stick,” he said. “I knew I was going to do what it took for me to get better in the offseason to do the things that I needed to do. I wasn’t concerned about me. It was just proving to those guys (coaches and teammates) that that hard work did pay off.” Luck owns one win over Weeden, having beaten the Browns 17-13 last October. And while winning is always a priority for Luck, the Colts’ franchise quarterback now understands the most important facet of Saturday night’s game is getting the offense in sync in its last real tuneup before the Sept. 8 season opener against Oakland. “We’ve been game-planning almost to the point as if it was a regular season game,” Luck said. “It’s a chance to play at home again for the last time before the home opener is big, so definitely, definitely echo that same sentiment.”

Catfish derby Aug. 31 at Lake Loramie

Weekly fishing report CENTRAL OHIO Alum Creek Lake (Delaware County) Smallmouth bass can be caught in this lake north of Columbus. Using crankbaits and spinner baits, target the main and secondary lake points were rip rap or hard bottom is present. White bass are being caught on in-line spinners and blade baits, look for dense areas of gizzard shad on the surface. Crappies are being found around wood in 10-15 feet of water use jigs or minnows. Crappies will move into shallower water as temperature decrease this fall. Musky can provide good action this time of year, troll crankbaits along the points and dam. SOUTHWEST OHIO Grand Lake St. Marys (Auglaize and Mercer counties) - Channel catfish are popular at Ohio’s largest inland lake. Try fishing on the bottom with nightcrawlers, chicken livers, shrimp, or cut baits. Prime areas include the Windy Point fishing pier, and the stone piers along the east bank. Increase your chances of catching a large flathead catfish by using large chub minnows or live sunfish for bait. OHIO RIVER Hannibal Lock and Dam Tailwater - Hybrid striped bass in the fiveto-seven pound range have been caught in good numbers in the past. The majority of the fish are usually caught on skipjack or shad. Try casting out into the tailwater section and let your bait drift, or place under an agitator and retrieve in short jerks. Fishing off one of the platforms or along the walkway near the dam are your best bets. Catfish can still be caught with cut bait and skipjack. Although night fishing yields the best results, the recent cooler temperatures may work to your advantage. New Richmond to Meldahl Dam (Clermont County) - Catfishing is still heating up along the Ohio River. Water levels are still slightly low in some areas but anglers are reporting good catches on raw or seasoned chicken breast. Stripers are being caught along the mouths of creeks flowing into the river. Watch for skipjack action in there areas, stripers will be foraging for them.

I can’t believe this is happening DR. WALLACE: I’m 16 and an only child. My dad is a lawyer and mom is a nurse, and I love them both very much. About six months ago, my dad started “seeing” someone who was employed in his office. She is about 20 years younger than mom. About a month ago, Dad moved out and moved in with her. He has told my mom that he wants a divorce and that he plans to marry this woman. I can’t believe this is really happening, and both my mom and I are totally devastated. I’m glad I was on summer break because I could never have concentrated on my schoolwork right now. Please tell me what I should do to overcome my emotions. I need to be strong to help my mother, and I need to be able to concentrate on my schoolwork this fall. Sometimes I worry that maybe I did something that caused my parents to split up! — Nameless, Dyer, Ind. NAMELESS: When parents decide to end a marriage, it causes emotional chaos for their children.

Your Horoscope

BY 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. 26, 2013

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be careful. Because you want to believe in someone, you might convince yourself that you can do so, especially if you feel too tired to do something at work. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Romantic difficulties might arise because of sudden flirtations at work.

Make sure you have all the facts before you jump to any conclusions.

(July 23 to Aug. 22) You might say something without thinking today. It just trips off the tongue and there it is, hanging in the air for all to hear. Think before you speak!

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is a poor day for important family discussions. Your heart is not in it, in addition to which, confusion and misdirection are likely. Parents should be vigilant about their kids today. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Conversations are confusing today. On top of this, rapidly changing events at home or within your family will demand your attention. A spontaneous party might take place! LEO

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Be careful of spontaneous purchases or financial decisions. Don’t do anything you will regret later. Try to be clear in your objectives today. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You feel restless and impulsive today. There’s nothing wrong with this except that at a basic level, you might be confused about something. Therefore, guard against

rash behavior. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Don’t be quick to believe everything you hear today, especially from friends or people in groups. Trust your gut instincts. Generally, your body knows the truth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You might meet a real character today, or someone you already know might do or say something amazing. This might be in response to your reluctance to take a stand on something.

6. Disloyalty: Teens may find themselves feeling disloyal to one parent or another. Perhaps you live with one parent and visit another as part of custody arrangements. You fear that it appears you favor one parent over the other. Believe it or not, it is possible to learn from a divorce and emerge a stronger, healthier person. You are not doomed to feel unhappy and insecure forever. And like some teens fear, you are not doomed to also divorce later in life. How you deal with what is happening in your life now will play a big part in how you approach life later. Keeping in touch with both parents and maintaining a positive attitude will really influence how well you navigate the divorce. Dr. Robert Wallace welcomes questions from readers. Although he is unable to reply to all of them individually, he will answer as many as possible in this column. Email him at rwallace@galesburg.net.

and people selling snake oil today, because you’re susceptible. Meanwhile, a sudden crush on your boss or a VIP might grip you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Sudden opportunities to travel or get further training might fall in your lap today. Your window of opportunity will be brief, so you have to act fast. The support of others might not be reliable. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Discussions with partners and close friends are confusing, even tiring. However, gifts, goodies and outright favors from another

source could benefit you today. YOU BORN TODAY You often work behind the scenes or join forces with others rather than call attention to yourself. You’re an excellent parent because you have a strong caring nature. Because of this, you are involved in selfless activities and charity work. You understand the rewards of service. This year you are focused on building or constructing something that is important to you.

IRS offers tips on how to amend your tax return If you discover an error after you file your tax return, you can correct it by amending your return. Here are 10 tips from the Internal Revenue Service about amending your federal tax return: 1. When to amend a return. You should file an amended return if you need to correct your filing status, number of dependents, total income, tax deductions or tax credits. The instructions for Form 1040X, Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, list additional reasons to amend a return. 2. When NOT to amend a return. In some cases, you don’t need to amend your tax return. For example, the IRS usually corrects math errors when processing your original return. If you did

United Way plans agency tour

Corporate and individual donors of the Shelby County United Way will have an opportunity to tour seven locations and hear from nine agencies on Oct. 10. “We are excited to offer a behind-thescenes look at what the agencies do and the clients they serve,” said Executive Director Scott Barr. “You walk away with a better understanding and appreciation of the services available in Shelby County.” The tour, named Live United, Tour to Understand, will visit the Senior Center, Compassionate Care, Alpha Community Center, New Choices, Samaritan Works, and Clear Creek Farm. There will also be a stop at the county courthouse with presentations by CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates), Victims Services, and Amy Simindinger and Judge William Zimmerman Sr. on the IMPACT Program.

not include a required form or schedule, the IRS will send you a request for whatever is missing. 3. Form to use. Use Form 1040X to amend a previously filed Form 1040, 1040A, 1040EZ, 1040NR or 1040NREZ. Make sure you check the box to show the tax year that you are amending on the Form 1040X. You cannot e-file an amended return. You must file an amended tax return on paper. 4. Multiple amended returns. If you’re filing an amended return for more than one year, prepare a separate 1040X for each return. Mail them in separate envelopes to the appropriate IRS processing center. (See “Where to File” in the instructions for Form 1040X.) 5. Form 1040X. Form 1040X has

three columns. Column A shows figures from the original return. Column B shows the changes you are making. Column C shows the corrected figures. There is also an area on the back of the form where you should explain the specific changes and the reasons for the changes. 6. Other forms or schedules. If the changes involve other tax schedules or forms, attach them to the Form 1040X. Failure to do this will cause a delay in processing. 7. Amending to claim an additional refund. If you’re expecting a refund from your original tax return, don’t file your amended return until after you have received that refund. You may cash the refund check from your original

return. The IRS will send you any additional refund you are owed. 8. Amending to pay additional tax. If you’re filing an amended tax return because you owe additional tax, you should file Form 1040X and pay the tax as soon as possible to limit any interest and penalty charges. 9. When to file. To claim a refund, you generally must file Form 1040X within three years from the date you filed your original tax return or within two years from the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. 10. Processing time. Normal processing time for amended returns is 8 to 12 weeks. Visit IRS.gov to get Form 1040X or call 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676).
