Boehnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aboard: Obama gains Syria-strike support Bradley Klapper and David Espo Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; President Barack Obama gained ground Tuesday in his drive for congressional backing of a military strike against Syria, winning critical support from House Speaker John Boehner while administration officials agreed to explicitly rule out the use of U.S. combat troops in retaliation for a chemical weapons attack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re probably going to winâ&#x20AC;? Congressâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; backing, Rand Paul of Kentucky, a conservative senator and likely opponent of the measure, conceded in a lateafternoon exchange with Secretary of State John Kerry. The leader of House
Republicans, Boehner emerged from a meeting at the White House and said the United States has â&#x20AC;&#x153;enemies around the world that need to understand that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to tolerate this type of behavior. We also have allies around the world and allies in the region who also need to know that America will be there and stand up when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s necessary.â&#x20AC;? Boehner spoke as lawmakers in both parties called for changes in the presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s requested legislation, rewriting it to restrict the type and duration of any military action that would be authorized, possibly including a ban on U.S. combat forces on the ground. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no problem in our having the language that See OBAMA | 5

The Shelby County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office conducted its annual marijuana eradication on Friday, confiscating nearly 500 plants in the sweep. Assisting the Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office were agents from the Bureau of Criminal Investigation & Identification and the Sidney Police Department. Officers began flying over the county with a helicopter provided by BCI in search of marijuana plants hidden in area fields. Marijuana growers typically hide their plants in corn fields once the corn gets tall enough to hide the plants. These growers trespass and often destroy portions of the farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s corn crop. During this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operation, officers found a total of 493 marijuana plants â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 468 at one location and 25 at another. The street value of these plants at maturity would be more than $400,000. At this time, the Sidney Shelby County Narcotics Unit is continuing its investigation into the locations where the marijuana was found. Anyone with information regarding the illegal growing of marijuana is asked to contact the Shelby County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office at 498-1111 or the Sidney Police Department at 4982351.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; You can feel the spirit of George Eastman in Antonio Perezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office. A picture of Eastman, who founded Kodak in 1880, sits among the current CEOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collection of family photos. The outer areas of Perezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, built and first inhabited by Eastman about a century ago, include some of Kodakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Oscar and Emmy awards, along with a collection of historic photos. A large portrait of Eastman, who died in 1932, hangs near the entrance. Perezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surroundings serve as a constant reminder of Kodakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hallowed history in the print and movie film industries â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and of the pressure he is under to revive the ailing company.
Kodak emerged from bankruptcy protection Tuesday vastly different from the company of old. Gone are the cameras and film that made it famous. The company hopes to replace them with new technologies such as touch screens for smartphones and smart packaging embedded with sensors. Over Perezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desk hang pictures depicting Kodakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including one of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ultra-fast commercial inkjet printer, the Prosper Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Look for a case of a company that had to go through this kind of excruciating restructuring and kept innovating,â&#x20AC;? Perez said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done it.â&#x20AC;? Kodak said its old stock is canceled as of Tuesday. Creditors are getting stock in the restructured company. The week before Kodak exited
Chapter 11 protection, Perez sat down with The Associated Press for a rare 90-minute interview. He spoke candidly about Kodakâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restructuring and laid out his vision for what lies ahead. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;THE DECLINE Eastman Kodak Co., credited with popularizing photography at the start of the 20th century, started to struggle toward the end of the century, first with Japanese competition and later when it failed to react quickly enough to the shift from film to digital photography. Perez was appointed CEO in 2005. Under his leadership, the Rochester, N.Y., company had restructured its money-losing film business by 2007. The company closed 13 factories, shuttered 130 film-processing labs and eliminated 50,000 workers
around the world at a cost of about $3.4 billion. Kodak expected demand for film to decline, but gradually. The company anticipated that new demand from emerging markets such as China would offset some of the decline in the United States. But Perez said Chinese consumers opted for smartphones instead of cameras, and demand for film plummeted. Meanwhile, the economic collapse of 2008 and the resulting plunge in interest rates left some of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pension obligations underfunded. It was those obligations, along with other legacy costs, that Perez said eventually resulted in the January 2012 bankruptcy filing. Revenue dropped from about $13.3 billion in 2003 to $6 billion in 2011.

City seeks grant for ash tree removal The city expects to learn this month if it will get a grant for removal of ash trees, the Sidney Tree Board was told at its recent meeting. The Street and Parks and Recreation departments submitted a combined application for ash tree removal in the amount of $48,031.85 on July 29. This is through the Western Lake Erie Basin Ash Removal program aimed at limiting the spread of the emerald ash borer. This is a 50/50 match, with the Street Department portion being $10,006.85 and the Parks and Recreation Department portion being $39,025.00. This is the final round of funds available. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources reviewed requests in August and
will announce awards in September. In other business, the board: • Accepted the tree brochure after approving the final draft. • Learned that five trees were found in need of removal during the cyclical pruning program. • Learned that eight trees were removed and five pruned (correction cuts) from damage cause by a storm on July 9. The remainder of the 2013 urban forestry budget was used. • Heard Joyce Reier, public works administrative assistant, report on three issues board member Jerry Kauffman had concerns about. A tree on Court Street is on the list for pruning, one on North Main
Avenue has been removed, and one on Collins Drive is an ash in decline. The issues prompted a discussion regarding procedure for tree issues on private property, such as limbs overhanging the sidewalk. • Heard Kauffman report that he and board member Marcia Osborne attended ODNR’s Tree Commission Academy Summer Conclave at Tawawa Park. • Heard City Council member Mardie Milligan report there had been discussion about utility clearance pruning at a recent City Council meeting prompted by a concerned citizen. The city manager will do a survey among surrounding communities regarding this issue.

Judge sides with Ohio gay couple Amanda Lee Myers Associated Press
CINCINNATI (AP) — A recently deceased gay Ohio man must be listed on his death certificate as married and his husband must be listed as his spouse despite Ohio’s gay marriage ban, a federal judge ordered Tuesday. Judge Timothy Black’s order came just hours after attorneys asked him to rule quickly so that William Herbert Ives, 54, is listed as married on his death certificate before being cremated on Wednesday. “On this record, there is insufficient evidence of a legitimate state interest to justify this singling out of same-sex married couples given the severe and irreparable harm it imposes on
David Michener,” Black wrote, pointing out that the request was made “to bring closure to the family in a manner that respects their marriage.” Michener and William Herbert Ives, 54, had been together for 18 years and have three adopted children. They married in Delaware on July 22, but Ives died unexpectedly a week ago. Black is the same judge who issued an order last month preventing state officials from enforcing their ban on gay marriage against another Cincinnati couple as one of them nears death. That order prevents officials from recording John Arthur, who’s dying of Lou Gehrig’s disease, as single on his death certificate and not listing his
husband, James Obergefell, as his spouse. The pair married in Maryland in July. The couple sued to have their out-of-state marriage recognized in Ohio before Arthur’s death so they can be listed as spouses on his death certificate and be buried next to each other in a cemetery that only allows descendants and spouses in family plots. Black ruled that Arthur and Obergefell deserve to be treated with dignity and that Ohio law historically has recognized out-of-state marriages as valid as long as they were legal where they took place, citing marriages between cousins and involving minors. “How then can Ohio, especially given the historical status of Ohio law, single out
Ohio treasurer: SUV from Senate bid used legally Julie Carr Smyth Associated Press
COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel said Tuesday that he trusts that his team followed all campaign finance laws regarding a vehicle from his 2012 U.S. Senate bid that was still in use months after the campaign and was involved in a March crash. “I wasn’t involved in the details, as I can recall,” Mandel told reporters after a public event in Columbus. “But from everything I know, the campaign people involved followed the letter of the law and followed the spirit of the law, and I think that’s what any elected official would expect of their campaign teams.” Mandel lost his high-profile bid to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown in November. Months later in March, the vehicle, a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee purchased with Senate campaign funds, collided with a highway barrier on icy roads on I-75 near Toledo. Federal campaign finance law prohibited using the vehicle for personal purposes or to campaign for another office, such as treasurer. Mandel’s state treasurer campaign was also prohibited from transferring the federal asset under state law, but would legally have been allowed to purchase it. Instead, the treasurer campaign cut a $1,000 check for rental of the vehicle on June 30 — months after it was totaled in the March accident. Mandel, a Republican, said Tuesday he doesn’t know whether an insurance claim was filed in the accident.
No insurance settlement has been reported on filings covering financial activity by the Senate campaign through the end of June. The Associated Press first reported last week that Mandel had been involved in the March crash as well as an earlier crash in April 2011, neither of which had been made public. A third accident in July 2012 subsequently uncovered by the AP also involved the Senate campaign’s SUV. The campaign described it as a fender-bender involving Mandel’s driver after he’d dropped Mandel at home for the night. Mandel told reporters Tuesday he hasn’t been in any other accidents that he can remember. “None that I can remember,” he said, pausing. “None that I can recall.” As treasurer, Mandel chooses not to use state-owned transportation for official business on the premise that it saves taxpayers money. State officials are legally allowed to use campaign vehicles for official use under Ohio campaign finance law. The practice does serve, however, to leave virtually no paper trail at Mandel’s state office of his travel activity and to muddy the distinction between his official and political outings. Mandel says he informed all the appropriate people about the March crash. “At the time, I mentioned it to my chief of staff (at the treasurer’s office), I mentioned it to my wife, and I mentioned it to the folks on the campaign team,” he said.
same-sex marriages as ones it will not recognize?” Black wrote. “The short answer is that Ohio cannot.” Arthur and Obergefell, both 47, say they’ve been in love for more than 20 years and “very much want the world to officially remember and record their union as a married couple,” according to their lawsuit. Michener is joining that lawsuit, which the three men hope will “set a precedent that will lead to relief for other same-sex couples,” the lawsuit says. Their attorney, Al Gerhardstein, has said that he plans to seek other benefits for his clients and other gay couples in Ohio, such as the ability to file joint tax returns. Gov. John Kasich’s spokesman, Robert Nichols, said the
office doesn’t comment on pending litigation, “except to say that the governor believes marriage is between a man and a woman.” Attorney General Mike DeWine’s spokesman, Dan Tierney, did not return a request for comment Tuesday but said in July that DeWine’s office will defend the right of Ohioans to define marriage and that the U.S. Supreme Court has recently emphasized that it is a definition that traditionally lies with states. “Ohio’s voters are entitled to the choice they have made on this fundamental issue,” he said. Ohio banned gay marriage in 2004 with 62 percent of the vote.

Effort to repeal Internet cafe crackdown continues COLUMBUS (AP) — Opponents of an Ohio law that effectively bans storefront sweepstakes parlors plan to submit enough signatures to the state Tuesday to block the law from taking effect. Those signatures would still have to be verified by local elections boards once they’re filed with Secretary of State John Husted’s office. But the petitions, from the Committee to Protect Ohio Jobs, could keep the law from kicking in Wednesday while the signatures are checked. Committee spokesman Mark Weaver said the group is expected to file more than
400,000 signatures in its effort to have voters repeal the measure next year. The group needs more than 231,000 valid signatures to place a referendum on the November 2014 ballot. A count by the Ohio attorney general’s office found that more than 620 Internet cafes are in operation across the state, representing growing competition to legalized casinos and games held for charity. At the storefronts, patrons buy cards for phone and Internet time with chances to play computer games that operate like slot machines
with cash prizes. The opposition group wants legislators to pass a new law that regulates the industry and shuts down what it calls rogue operators. During debate over the law, cafe owners told legislators the crackdown would unnecessarily cost the state jobs. Backers of the measure say the parlors harbor illegal gambling. They cautioned that no single law enforcement agency has authority to investigate or pursue criminal charges statewide for any illegal activity at the cafes, which leaves the industry open to money laundering and other crimes.
Vandals, arsonists threaten covered bridges COLUMBUS (AP) — The number of historic covered bridges in Ohio is dwindling, from what was once thousands to about 145 now, and preservationists say vandals and arsonists are chipping away at those still standing. Ohio’s number of original covered bridges is second only to Pennsylvania, which has more than 200, according to the Ohio Historic Bridge Association. The remaining wooden spans over streams and creeks sometimes are marred by graffiti, fire and
other damage. Association president David Simmons told The Columbus Dispatch it’s often tough to catch the vandals. Many of the bridges are in rural or isolated areas and don’t carry traffic, and Simmons says that can attract firebugs. An 1874 bridge with a rare, rounded shape was destroyed by arson in June in southeast Ohio’s Vinton County. “It was devastating to everyone,” county engineer Ron Sharrett said. “The problem is that there is nothing you can
do to reconstruct it. The entire bridge went down.” Sharrett said about $300,000 had been spent a decade ago to rehabilitate the bridge. The structure, known as the Ponn Humpback Bridge, was one of two of its kind in the country. The remaining one is in Virginia. That case is under investigation as arson, as is an earlier fire at an 1881 bridge on Ohio University’s Lancaster campus. The January blaze in Lancaster caused an estimated $20,000 in damage to support
posts and decking of the bridge. In that case, repairs were made and the bridge reopened to foot traffic. It’s one of 18 original covered bridges in Fairfield County, which has the most among Ohio’s 88 counties. In northeastern Ohio, Ashtabula County also has 18, but some of them are newer. Ohio’s historic covered bridges were built from 1816 to 1919, Simmons said. Some officials have tried to keep alive the tradition of such
bridges by building modern versions. Union County, for example, added three double-lane structures to its four remaining, single-lane originals, three of which are still used by traffic. “It fits with our heritage and our interest in maintaining our heritage,” county engineer Jeff Stauch said. The newer bridges have a concrete substructure with a framework, cover and sides made mostly of wood and some steel supports.
Toddler attacked, shot in head improving Amanda Lee Myers Associated Press
CINCINNATI (AP) — A 14-month-old Ohio girl shot in the head last week in attack that left her pregnant mother dead is now talking and improving daily, the toddler’s grandfather said Tuesday as investigators vowed to get justice for the family. David Dodson, 49, told
The Associated Press that his granddaughter Aubree has been asking for her mother as she begins a long road to recovery. The family hasn’t yet told Aubree that her mother, 22-year-old Brittany Stykes, is dead. Authorities were responding to a call last Wednesday night about a single-vehicle crash when they found Stykes, who
40431255
was five months pregnant, shot to death inside her car along U.S. Route 68 in Ripley, 45 miles southeast of Cincinnati. Aubree was still strapped to her car seat, bleeding from a gunshot wound to the head. “She’s asking for her mommy and she’s doing a lot better,” Dodson said. “She knows her mother is not with us, she just doesn’t know where or why.” Dodson said he and the entire family are completely overwrought by the deaths
of Stykes and her unborn child. “I had to sit and pick out two caskets,” he said. Stykes and the baby will be laid to rest after a funeral at 11 a.m. Wednesday at Salt Air Church of Christ in Tate, just southwest of Bethel. The public is invited. Brown County sheriff’s officials have not released a suspected motive or announced any arrests in the case. “We’re not going to spec-
ulate, there’s a lot of different possibilities,” Chief Deputy John Schadle said Tuesday. “We’re trying to rule out some things and rule in other things … We’re going to play our cards pretty close to our vest.” He urged anyone with information about the crime to contact authorities. “We’re not going to leave any stone unturned to get justice for Brittany and her family,” Schadle said. Dodson said the family, including Stykes’ husband,
Shane Stykes, have no idea why anyone would have wanted to kill Stykes and her daughter. Stykes didn’t work and spent her days with her parents while Shane worked his factory job in Cincinnati, Dodson said, adding that all his daughter could talk about recently was how excited she was for her new baby to arrive. “She couldn’t wait,” he said. “She was a super mother.”

Today is Wednesday, Sept. 4, the 247th day of 2013. There are 118 days left in the year. Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, begins at sunset. Today’s Highlight in History: On September 4, 1888, George Eastman received a patent for his roll-film box camera, and registered his trademark: “Kodak.” On this date: In 1781, Los Angeles was founded by Spanish settlers under the leadership of Governor Felipe de Neve. In 1886, a group of Apache Indians led by Geronimo (also known as Goyathlay, “One Who Yawns”) surrendered to Gen. Nelson Miles at Skeleton Canyon in Arizona. In 1893, English author Beatrix Potter first told the story of Peter Rabbit in the form of a “picture letter” to Noel Moore, the son of Potter’s former governess. In 1917, the American Expeditionary Forces in France suffered their first fatalities during World War I when a German plane attacked a British-run base hospital. In 1948, Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands abdicated after nearly six decades of rule for health reasons. In 1951, President Harry S. Truman addressed the nation from the Japanese peace treaty conference in San Francisco in the first live, coast-to-coast television broadcast. In 1957, Arkansas Gov. Orval Faubus used Arkansas National Guardsmen to prevent nine black students from entering all-white Central High School in Little Rock. Ford Motor Co. began selling its ill-fated Edsel. In 1962, The Beatles, with new drummer Ringo Starr, recorded “Love Me Do” at EMI Studios in London. (The more familiar version with substitute drummer Andy White and Starr on tambourine was recorded a week later.) In 1963, a Swissair Caravelle III carrying 80 people crashed shortly after takeoff from Zurich, killing all on board. In 1971, an Alaska Airlines jet crashed near Juneau, killing all 111 people on board. In 1972, U.S. swimmer Mark Spitz won a seventh gold medal at the Munich Olympics, in the 400-meter medley relay. “The New Price Is Right,” hosted by Bob Barker, premiered on CBS. (The game show later dropped the “New” from its title and expanded from a halfhour to an hour.) In 1998, Internet services company Google filed for incorporation in California.

Two-toned lobster on display PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Maine has seen its share of blue lobsters, orange lobsters, albino lobsters and calico lobsters. But one on display at a Portland research facility has all of those turning green with envy. The lobster at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute is half orange and half brown. The lobster was caught by lobsterman Jeff Edwards and was donated by Ship to Shore Lobster Co. in Owl’s Head. Research Institute spokesman Steven Profaizer says it’s being kept in a tank used by the LabVenture education experience. For the program, the institute transports about 10,000 students each year. As for the lobster, it is indeed rare. The Lobster Institute at the University of Maine tells WMTW-TV this type of two-tone lobster is one in 50 million. Only albino lobsters are rarer.

Syria is said to be hiding weapons, moving troops Ryan Lucas Associated Press
BEIRUT (AP) — As the Obama administration tries to prod Congress into backing armed action against Syria, the regime in Damascus is hiding military hardware and shifting troops out of bases into civilian areas. Politically, President Bashar Assad has gone on the offensive, warning in a rare interview with Western media that any military action against Syria could spark a regional war. If the U.S. undertakes mis-
sile strikes, Assad’s reaction could have a major effect on the trajectory of Syria’s civil war. Neighboring countries could get dragged into a wider conflict, or it could be back to business as usual for a crisis that has claimed the lives of more than 100,000 people over 2½ years. The main Western-backed opposition group says that during the buildup last week to what seemed like an imminent U.S. attack, the army moved troops as well as rocket launchers, artillery and other heavy weapons into residential neighborhoods in cities nationwide.
Three Damascus residents, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals, confirmed such movements. One man said two members of the elite Republican Guards broke into an empty house he owns and showed him an official document stating they were authorized to do so because Syria is at war. A woman in another area said soldiers moved into a school next to her house. A U.S. official confirmed there are indications that the Syrian regime is taking steps to move some of its military
equipment and bolster protection for defense facilities. The official, who was not authorized to discuss intelligence matters and spoke on condition of anonymity, said that at this point, the U.S. has the information it needs to maintain a good handle on what the regime is doing to prepare. The trend inside Syria is likely to continue in the coming days now that the regime has won a reprieve with President Barack Obama’s decision to seek congressional approval for military action.

In Nokia acquisition, Microsoft tries to catch up Matti Huuhtanen and Michael Liedtke Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Microsoft’s acquisition of Nokia’s troubled smartphone business represents a daring $7.2 billion attempt by the software giant and a onceinfluential cellphone maker to catch up with the mobile computing revolution that threatens to leave them in the technological dust. The deal announced late Monday offers both companies a chance to make up for lost time with a strategy to meld their software and hardware into a cohesive package, like rival Apple has done. But there are plenty of reasons to question whether the copycat approach will pay off. Unlike Apple, Microsoft Corp. makes most of its money from software for per-
sonal computers — a stillprofitable franchise that has gradually been crumbling as smartphones and tablets supplant laptop and desktop machines. By some estimates, more than two-thirds of the computing devices being sold now are either smartphones or tablets, and there are few signs that trend will change during the next decade. To complicate Microsoft’s transition, the Redmond, Wash., company is being led by a lame duck. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, who negotiated the Nokia deal, recently announced plans to retire within the next year in a tacit admission that the company needs a different leader to blaze new trails. The managerial limbo raises even more doubts about whether Microsoft will be able to turn Nokia’s phones
into more effective weapons in a mobile-computing battle against devices powered by Google Inc.’s Android software and Apple Inc.’s iPhone and IPad. “It’s a three-horse race, and Microsoft knows it needs to come up with a more well-defined plan for mobile devices to catch up,” said Darren Hayes, a computer science professor at Pace University in New York. “This was an essential acquisition for them.” The Nokia deal didn’t go over well with investors who have already become weary of Microsoft’s largely fruitless efforts to evolve into something more than a PC-dependent company. Microsoft’s stock shed $1.52, or 4.6 percent, to close Tuesday at $31.88. Nokia Corp.’s shares surged $1.22, or 31 percent, to finish at $5.12.
CAIRO (AP) — An Egyptian doctor once close to Osama bin Laden is bringing together multiple al-Qaidainspired militant groups in Egypt’s Sinai to fight the country’s military, as the lawless peninsula emerges as a new theater for jihad, according to Egyptian intelligence and security officials. There have been other signs of a dangerous shift in the longtime turmoil in the peninsula bordering Israel and the Gaza Strip since the military’s July 3 ouster of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi, the officials say. With the shifts, Sinai’s instability is becoming more regionalized and threatens to turn into an outright insurgency. Sinai has seen an influx of foreign fighters over the past two months, including several hundred Yemenis. Several militant groups that long operated in the area to establish an Islamic Caliphate and attack their traditional enemy Israel have joined others in declaring formally that their objective now is to battle Egypt’s military. Also, Sinai has become the focus of attention among major regional jihadi groups. A leader of al-Qaida’s Iraqi branch, Abu Mohammed al-Adnani, last weekend called on Egyptians to fight the military, as did al-Qaida’s top leader, Ayman al-Zawahri. The militant considered the most dangerous man in the Sahara — one-eyed terror leader Moktar Belmoktar, a former member of al-Qaida’s North Africa branch — joined forces with a Mali-based jihadi group last month and vowed attacks in Egypt.
Rodman in North Korea to visit his ‘friend’ Kim PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — Former NBA star Dennis Rodman landed Tuesday in North Korea and said he plans to hang out with authoritarian leader Kim Jong Un, have a good time and maybe bridge some cultural gaps — but not be a diplomat. Rodman was greeted at Pyongyang’s airport by Son Kwang Ho, vice-chairman of North Korea’s Olympic Committee, just days after Pyongyang rejected a visit by a U.S. envoy who had hoped to bring home Kenneth Bae, an American missionary jailed there. The North abruptly called off the official visit because it said the U.S. had ruined the atmosphere for talks by holding a drill over South Korea with nuclear-capable B-52 bombers.
Rodman said the purpose of his visit was to display his friendship for Kim and North Korea and to “show people around the world that we as Americans can actually get along with North Korea.” Speaking to reporters in Beijing ahead of his flight to Pyongyang — his second trip to the North — Rodman declined to say whether he would seek Bae’s release. Bae’s health is poor, and he was recently transferred to a hospital. “I just want to meet my friend Kim, the marshal, and start a basketball league over there or something like that,” said Rodman, wearing rings through his lower lip and each nostril. “I have not been promised anything. I am just going there as a friendly gesture.”
Bae was arrested in November and sentenced to 15 years of hard labor for what Pyongyang described as hostile acts against the state. Rodman once asked on his Twitter account for Kim to “do me a solid” and release Bae. Kim has the power to grant special pardons under the North’s constitution. “I’m not there to be a diplomat. I’m there to go there and just have a good time, sit with (Kim) and his family, and that’s pretty much it,” Rodman said, adding that he planned to see Kim “pretty soon,” perhaps later Tuesday or Wednesday. Rodman is being hosted in North Korea by the Ministry of Physical Culture and Sport, which has not confirmed if or when Rodman will meet Kim Jong Un.
Obama From page 1 has zero capacity for American troops on the ground,” said Secretary of State John Kerry, one of three senior officials to make the case for military intervention at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing. “President Obama is not asking America to go to war,” Kerry said in a strongly worded opening statement. He added, “This is not the time for armchair isolationism. This is not the time to be spectators to slaughter.” Obama said earlier in the day he was open to revisions in the relatively broad request the White House made over the weekend. He expressed confidence Congress would respond to his call for support and said Assad’s action “poses a serious national security threat to the United States and to the region.”
The administration says 1,429 died from the attack on Aug. 21 in a Damascus suburb. Casualty estimates by other groups are far lower, and Assad’s government blames the episode on rebels who have been seeking to overthrow his government in a civil war that began over two years ago. A United Nations inspection team is awaiting lab results on tissue and soil samples it collected while in the country before completing a closely watched report. The president met top lawmakers at the White House before embarking on an overseas trip to Sweden and Russia, leaving the principal lobbying at home for the next few days to Vice President Joe Biden and other members of his administration. Kerry, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Gen. Martin Dempsey,
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, sat shoulder-to-shoulder at the Senate committee hearing while, a few hundred miles away, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged caution. He said any punitive action against Syria could unleash more turmoil and bloodshed, and he advised that such strikes would be legal only in self-defense under the U.N. Charter or if approved by the organization’s Security Council. Russia and China have repeatedly used their veto power in the council to block action against Assad. In the Middle East, Israel and the U.S. conducted a joint missile test over the Mediterranean in a display of military might in the region. Obama set the fast-paced events in motion on Saturday, when he
unexpectedly stepped back from ordering a military strike under his own authority and announced he would seek congressional approval. Recent presidents have all claimed the authority to undertake limited military action without congressional backing. Some have followed up with such action. Obama said he, too, believes he has that authority, and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi said during the day that even Congress’ refusal to authorize the president wouldn’t negate the power of the commander in chief. Still, the president also has stated that the United States will be stronger if lawmakers grant their support. But neither Obama nor his aides has been willing to state what options would be left to him should Congress reject his call.

The purpose behind scalding milk Dear Heloise: Why do some instructions call for scalded milk? What is the purpose? Thanks in advance! — Pat W., Harrisonburg, Va. Very good question, and one I had to think about. Older recipes said to scald milk to kill bacteria and an enzyme that prevented thickening in recipes. Today, most milk is pasteurized, so the bacteria and enzyme are already gone. Also, scalding milk raises the temperature, which helps dissolve yeast and melt butter when added to
bread recipes. How do you scald milk? Heat the liquid until just below the boiling point, or 180 degrees. After scalding, a recipe typically will state that you let the milk cool to 110 degrees before adding it to the other ingredients. Scalded milk helps make cakes spongy and breads light. — Heloise Seeding lemons Dear Heloise: Being from the South, we like to serve iced tea and have lemon available, but how do you get rid of the seeds?

Cub Scout Pack 97, chartered by Saint Paul’s United Church of Christ, welcomed more than a dozen prospective new scouts and their families to learn about scouting at the pack’s Recruitment Night rocket launch recently. Boys interested in Cub Scouting and their families were introduced to the Boy Scouts of America and specifically what they could expect while being part of the Pack 97 scouting family. Then, Pack leaders and current Pack 97 Cub Scouts helped the boys build rockets of recycled plastic soda bottles. More than 15 water- and air pressure-propelled rockets were launched skyward, reaching more than 70 feet before they fell back to earth. The Boy Scouts of America cub scouting program is for boys who are in the first through fifth grades. They participate in family-centered

ike the old saying goes, the chief is only as good as his helpers. Dental auxiliaries can make or break a dental office. The quality of care that a dentist can provide is directly related to the skills of his/her team members. The ability to relate to people is an essential quality of any dental assistant. Their duties vary but usually include collecting and managing data and dental Jeff Van Treese, D.D.S. records, patient education, scheduling appointments, inventory control, making dental impressions and study models, patient preparation for dental procedures, sterilization and hazardous waste management, assisting the dentist with surgery, laboratory case scheduling and organization, and many others.

One quality that cannot be represented by technical skill, a certificate, or a license is the ability to care for each and every patient as if they were a close family member. Warmth, care, and concern for the well-being of others is an integral requirement for doing this job well. A warm smile, a perfectly timed joke, a soft touch on the shoulder....these are just some of the intangibles that patients enjoy from a good dental auxiliary. Jeffery R.

Hospital honors pre-med student Wilson Memorial Hospital recently announced Jacob Stephens, of Fort Loramie, as the recipient of the fifth annual Physician Memorial Scholarship. Established following the death of Bruce C. Urbanc, D.O., in 2008, the scholarship is a joint effort of the Wilson Memorial Hospital medical staff and the hospital. The scholarship is awarded to a student who is enrolled or accepted for enrollment in a fully accredited school of medicine or osteopathic medicine in the continental United States. The student must be a Shelby County high school graduate. “We recently awarded $2,000 to Jacob to assist on his journey through medical school,” said Dr. Robert McDevitt, chief of staff at Wilson Memorial.

Members of Wilson’s Medical Staff Executive Committee were charged with making the final selection. Members of the committee were McDevitt, Dr. Paul Thorpe, Dr. Kenneth Bosslet, Dr. Frederick Simpson,

Stephens is entering his senior year at Xavier University in Cincinnati, where he is pursuing a degree in natural science, a major geared toward students who want to go on to medical school. While at Xavier, Stephens was the recipient of the St. Francis Xavier scholarship, which is awarded to the 10 most qualified students and provides full tuition for four years. He also was accepted into the highly competitive Research, Observation, Service and Education (ROSE) program at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. This program provides a twoyear summer research internship, as well as a seat in the

Beware of these tax scams Are you thinking about taxes while you’re enjoying the warm summer months? Not likely! But the IRS wants you to know that scammers ARE thinking about taxes and ways to dupe you out of your money. Tax scams can happen anytime of the year, not just during tax season. Three common year-round scams are identity theft, phishing and return preparer fraud. These schemes are on the top of the IRS’s “Dirty Dozen” list of scams this year. They’re illegal and can lead to significant penalties and interest, even criminal prosecution. Here’s more information about these scams that every taxpayer should know: 1. Identity Theft. Tax fraud by identity theft tops this year’s Dirty Dozen list. Identity thieves use personal information, such as your name, Social Security number or other identifying information without your permission to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may also use another person’s identity to fraudulently file a
tax return and claim a refund. The IRS has a special identity protection page on IRS.gov dedicated to identity theft issues. It has helpful links to information, such as how victims can contact the IRS Identity Theft Protection Specialized Unit, and how you can protect yourself against identity theft. 2. Phishing. Scam artists use phishing to trick unsuspecting victims into revealing personal or financial information. Phishing scammers may pose as the IRS and send bogus emails, set up phony websites or make phone calls. These contacts usually offer a fictitious refund or threaten an audit or investigation to lure victims into revealing personal information. Phishers then use the information they obtain to steal the victim’s identity, access their bank accounts and credit cards or apply for loans. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by email to request personal or financial information. Please forward suspicious scams to the IRS at phishing@irs.gov.

STOCK MARKET Listed are Tuesday’s stock market prices at closing for firms in the Sidney-Shelby County area traded on the major markets.
You can also visit IRS.gov and select the link “Reporting Phishing” at the bottom of the page. 3. Return Preparer Fraud. Most tax professionals file honest and accurate returns for their clients. However, some dishonest tax return preparers skim a portion of the client’s refund or charge inflated fees for tax preparation. Some try to attract new clients by promising refunds that are too good to be true. Choose carefully when hiring an individual or firm to prepare your return. All paid tax preparers must sign the return they prepare and enter their IRS Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN). The IRS created a webpage to assist taxpayers when choosing a tax preparer. It includes red flags to look for and information on how and when to make a complaint. Visit www.irs.gov/chooseataxpro.

HOROSCOPE
BY FRANCES DRAKE For Thursday, Sept. 5, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is the best day of the year to think about what you can do to improve your health. (That's because the New Moon is occurring in that part of your chart.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It's important to have balance in your life between playful, creative activity and work. Think about this today. Do you do things to express your creative impulses? Do you get enough play time? GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) What can you do to improve your home and also improve your relationship with your family members? Today's New Moon is the best day of the year to think about this. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) We are social creatures, which is why clear communication with others is essential. Think about your style of communicating. Are you a good listener? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) The New Moon today urges you to take stock of your assets. What do you own? What do you earn? What do you owe? Information is power. Get the picture. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve the impression you make on your world. Today's New Moon is in your sign, which is why you need to think about your image. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) The decisions you make every day accumulate to create your future. What are the parameters or guidelines that you use to make these decisions? Think about this. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Today's New Moon urges you to scrutinize your friendship with others. Would you want to have you as a friend? SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) What is your relationship with authority figures? Are you immediately rebellious or suspicious? We all have to deal with authority one way or another. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) What further education or training could you get to improve your job or enrich your life? Perhaps travel is the answer. You're never too old to learn something new. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Clear up loose ends with red-tape details regarding insurance matters, inheritances, taxes, debt and shared property. You'll love yourself later for doing this. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) What can you do to improve your closest friendships? Today's New Moon is the perfect time to think about this. YOU BORN TODAY You are romantic, you are imaginative and you are playful! You can be emotionally extravagant, because you want life to fit your dream. Even if you appear "ordinary," your inner world might be like a fairytale, or your home might be like a palace. You want life to be magical and thrilling. This year, your focus will be on relationships and close friendships. Birthdate of: Loudon Wainwright III, singer/songwriter; Werner Herzog, filmmaker; Rose McGowan, actress.

the symptoms of Lewy body dementia. There is so much focused on Alzheimer’s disease. LBD is the second most common dementia and is very difficult to diagnose, as it does not show up on an MRI. I struggled for more than a year to find the right diagnosis and proper medications for my husband. This is an incredibly difficult form of dementia for the caregiver and family to handle. — P.T. ANSWER: Lewy body dementia is, as you say, the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer’s disease. But there are a few features that should raise suspicion for LBD as opposed to Alzheimer’s. Forgetfulness is usually the first sign in Alzheimer’s disease, but in LBD, the first signs often are inattentiveness and difficulty judging distances. Driving problems — including getting lost, missing stop signs or having automobile accidents — often happen early in the disease. So do falls. Memory problems always happen in LBD, but often, they come later in the course of the disease. Visual hallucinations are common, and are an important distinguishing feature from Alzheimer’s. I have repeatedly heard the story
that a person thinks there is someone living in his house or apartment in early LBD, but any kind of visual hallucination is significant. Motor problems resembling Parkinson’s disease also are extremely common. Acting out dreams also is reported, as are other kinds of sleep disturbances, especially taking long naps during the day when that hasn’t been the pattern before. It is very important to make the diagnosis of LBD rather than Alzheimer’s, because the treatments are different. Many medicines used with some success in Alzheimer’s disease are useless or even worsen LBD. Neither Alzheimer’s disease nor LBD can be diagnosed with a CT scan or MRI scan. A neurologist, especially one specializing in memory disorders, is likely to be the most expert in making the diagnosis. I found very helpful information, including about support groups, at www. lbda.org. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

Organizers consider annual festival a success RUSSIA — The annual Russia Homecoming Festival held over the Labor Day weekend was deemed a success by organizers. “Large crowds enjoyed a wide variety of food, fun games, exciting rides, and lots of entertainment and activities for all ages,” said Ken Francis, festival chairman. Francis said the early rain on Saturday did keep the crowds down on Saturday, but the crowd on Sunday more than made up for it as the folks who’d missed Saturday’s fun didn’t want to miss out on Sunday. Saturday highlights included opening Mass, which was held inside St. Remy Catholic rather than at the Grotto, because of the weather. The Russia High School Band and the band Experience provided entertainment for Saturday. Sunday activities started with a successful 5k run, Francis said. There also were lip-sync, conrhole tournaments and dodgeball tournaments, and the band Karma’s Pawn provided Sunday night’s entertainment. The barbecue chicken dinners were a “huge success,” Francis said, and the performance of “Jokes and Juggling” by Craig Muhlenkamp was very well attended. “It was a very successful weekend for the

Bailey, Reds blank Cards 1-0 Hamilton steals base, scores only run
CINCINNATI (AP) — Speedy Billy Hamilton got his first major league steal Tuesday night and came around on Todd Frazier’s double in the seventh inning, sending the Cincinnati Reds to a 1-0 victory, their second straight over the St. Louis Cardinals. Hamilton set a professional record by swiping 155 bases in the minors last year. He got an ovation when he made his big league debut as a pinch runner for Ryan Ludwick, who led off the seventh with a single against Seth Maness (5-2). After Maness threw to first three times, Hamilton took off and beat catcher Yadier Molina’s off-target throw. He scored easily on Frazier’s hit and got congratulatory slaps in the dugout. Homer Bailey (10-10) allowed only two hits in seven innings, retiring his last 14 batters. Aroldis Chapman threw four pitches that registered 103 mph while fanning the heart of the Cardinals’ order in the ninth for his 34th save in 39 chances, completing the twohitter. The Cardinals were shut out for the third time in their last six games. By taking the first two in the four-game series, the Reds snapped the Cardinals’ streak of winning seven straight series between the NL Central rivals. St. Louis is 10-7 against Cincinnati this season.
The head-to-head opportunities are dwindling. Secondplace St. Louis is a game and a half ahead of Cincinnati. The Cardinals host the divisionleading Pirates for three games next weekend, completing their season series. The Reds play Pittsburgh six times in their last nine games. The trio has been in a tight pack atop the division most of the season. Currently, all three are in position to make the playoffs. And now, the Reds have a new way to win a close game. They considered calling up the 22-year-old Hamilton last September, but decided he wasn’t ready. A year later, he made good on his first steal attempt and decided a game full of tough pitching and sensational defense. Michael Wacha, the Cardinals’ top draft pick last year out of Texas A&M, made his fifth career start and blanked the Reds on three hits through six innings. The Cardinals’ lineup was back to full strength. Carlos Beltran was back in right field after missing two games with a sore back. Molina was back in the lineup after leaving Monday’s game with a sore left wrist. Bailey is in a good stretch, winning his last five decisions. He held the Cardinals to five hits over 7 1-3 innings during a 10-0 win in St. Louis last

Cincinnati Reds’ Shin-Soo Choo (17) slides hard into second base after being force, causing St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Matt Carpenter to hold on to the ball in the sixth inning of a baseball game Tuesday in Cincinnati. Joey Votto was safe at first.
Wednesday. Bailey escaped an early threat. Matt Carpenter opened the game with a single, and Bailey walked Beltran on four pitches, bringing up Matt Holliday. The left fielder has a .375 career average against Bailey, but struck out swinging. Allen Craig grounded into a double play. Defense had a lot to do with
keeping this one close. No surprise there — St. Louis has the fewest errors in the NL, Cincinnati the third-fewest. NOTES: The Cardinals called up RHP Carlos Martinez, LHP Tyler Lyons, INF Ryan Jackson, INF Brock Peterson and C Audry Perez. … Reds manager Dusty Baker said LHP Tony Cingrani will start the final game of the series on Thursday.
RHP Greg Reynolds replaced Cingrani when he went on the DL with a sore back and was on turn to start. Baker said Reynolds will be ready if Cingrani has problems. … Reds RHP Bronson Arroyo (1310) starts Wednesday’s game against RHP Shelby Miller (129). Arroyo is 0-3 in four starts against the Cardinals this season and 8-16 for his career.

Jackets booters fall to ‘Boro
The Sidney High boys soccer team dropped to 1-4 on the season after losing at home to Springboro in action Tuesday, 5-1. The Jackets have been hit hard with injuries, and suffered another one Tuesday when Quinton McKenzie went down with an apparent knee injury. Springboro led 2-0 at the half, then scored another goal to open the second half. Sidney responded with its only goal of the game, by Luke Rees at the 31:03 mark.
Brady Gaylor assisted. “Considering our injuries, and then losing Quinton early, I thought our kids played hard and battled throughout,” said Sidney coach Eric Harlamert. “The game was closer than the score showed. We had very good attacks and good opportunities, but couldn’t cash in. And they were able to.” Sidney won the junior varsity game 3-1, with Preston Crall scoring two goals and Austin Epperly one.

Serena wins quarterfinal 6-0, 6-0 NEW YORK (AP) — From an ace on the first point to a stinging return on the last, Serena Williams was close to perfect in the U.S. Open quarterfinals. The score said it all Tuesday night: 6-0, 6-0. Yes, Williams is looking better and better with each match at the year’s last Grand Slam tournament. With two more wins — no matter the exact scores — she’ll earn a fifth title at Flushing Meadows and 17th major championship overall. The No. 1-ranked and No. 1-seeded Williams shut out 18thseeded Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain, the first “double bagel” in a quarterfinal at Flushing Meadows since 1989, when 18-time major title winner Martina Navratilova did it to Manuela Maleeva. “When you play against Serena,” Suarez Navarro said, “you know these things can happen.” Williams won 53 of 71 points and dominated pretty much every statistical category. The first set took all of 19 minutes. The second was slower, lasting 33 minutes, but no less lopsided. Williams was asked whether she’d describe her performance as close to flawless. “Of course not,” the defending champion said with a laugh. “I played good, though. I played real-
ly good. I was just more focused than anything. You know, I like to believe there is room for improvement.” That might be bad news for her opponent in Friday’s semifinals, 2011 French Open champion Li Na of China. Asked in an on-court interview if her game is peaking, Williams replied: “No. Not yet. I hope not. I’m just trying to do the best that I can.” Through five matches, Williams has dropped a total of 13 games so far. For comparison’s sake, know this: Suarez Navarro lost more games than that in her previous match alone, 15, while eliminating No. 8 Angelique Kerber. That victory, and her seeding, should have demonstrated that Suarez Navarro is quite capable of playing well, too. But not on this evening. Not against Williams, who is 65-4 with eight titles in 2013. Going back to the start of Wimbledon last year, the 31-yearold American is 96-5 with 13 trophies, including from three of the past five Grand Slam tournaments plus the London Olympics. “The conditions were so tough, so it definitely was not her best tennis today,” Williams said about Suarez Navarro, who was playing in her third career major quarterfinal Tuesday, which happened to
be her 25th birthday. Tough conditions, huh? That swirling wind in Arthur Ashe Stadium sure did not appear to bother Williams one bit. She wound up with a 20-3 edge in winners. She made fewer unforced errors, 12-9. She won 23 of 26 points on first serves. “I’ve been playing here for, like, 50 years,” Williams said with a laugh. “I’ve kind of gotten used to the conditions. Even though it’s difficult to play each year, I’m getting a little bit better with it.” When Williams did face a break point for the first time, 42 minutes and 11 games into the match, she came up with a big serve and raced forward for a simple putaway that she punctuated with a yell. Moments later came a second break chance, but even with Williams stumbling to the court, Suarez Navarro dumped the ball into the net. It was that kind of night. “She’s the best player in the sport,” Suarez Navarro said. “When you look at the draw, you don’t want to see Serena there.” Before the match, picturing in her mind what it might be like to step out in the largest arena in Grand Slam tennis, under the lights at night, against Williams, Suarez Navarro came up with a couple of possible scenarios.

Last-second thrillers to open the season Ken Barhorst and Dave Ross
It was quite a way to open the 2013 football season, with two of the games in the area coming down to the final seconds before being settled. Sidney and St. Marys thrilled fans for the second year in a row. After an overtime game in St. Marys last year that went to the Yellow Jackets, Sidney took advantage of the Roughriders’ struggles in the red zone to hang on for a 19-16 win. The Riders had a wide-open pass dropped in the endzone with a minute remaining on fourthand-goal from the three. That was one of three first-and-goal situations the Roughriders had during the game, and they turned them into just three points total. The Jackets have some work to do on both sides of the ball, despite the victory. Sidney was able to run for just 97 yards in the game, while giving up a nearly 300 yards on the ground to the Roughriders. Sidney quarterback Jordan Fox passed for 200 yards and also led the team in rushing yards with 70. A big highlight for Sidney was the kicking game. Sidney sophomore kicker Danny Dean tallied two field goals in the win at Sidney Memorial Stadium. It’s the seventh time in school history that a kicker notched two field goals in the same game. The first was by Bob Potter in 1922 and the most recent last season by Andre Spillers, who is now playing for Urbana University. And punter Anthony Yates only got one attempt, but he boomed it 42 yards, with a lot of hang time.
Extra points Williams too much In the case of the Lehman Cavaliers, Christian Williams was just too much last week in the one-side loss to Anna. The Rocket running back’s official yardage has been announced, and it was even more than the unofficial total in Saturday’s paper. He had 323 yards on 29 carries, an average of 11.1 yards per carry. At that rate, he will need to average only 75 yards a game through the rest of the regular season to hit the 1,000-yard mark again. Meanwhile, Lehman got a superb effort out of quarterback Nick Rourke, who finished with some impressive numbers of his own. It was reported in the Satuday game story that Rourke was knocked out of the game in the third quarter, but actually, he lost his helmet on a play and had to sit out one more play. He finished the night completing 17-of-28 passes for 167 yards and a touchdown against a good Anna defense. And he also ran for 51 yards, tops for the Cavs Friday. And Drew Westerheide, last year’s top receiver, is off to a good start to this season, catching nine passes for 107 yards and a touchdown. Loramie wins late Fort Loramie rallied in the late going to edge Minster in comeback fashion, 21-18, last week. And running back Delaunte Thornton, who scored the winning touchown with just seconds remaining, put up good numbers. He finished with 120 yards on 23 carries against a tough
Minster defense and scored two of the Redskins’ touchowns. And quarterback Tyler Kazmaier was 14-for-24 for 153 yards through the air. On the other side of the ball, Minster’s Sam Dues also reached the century mark, rushing for 101 yards on 23 carries. New Minster mentor Geron Stokes comes from Urbana where he was also head coach. His final UHS squad won nine times before losing a playoff opener in 2012. Stokes previously quarterbacked both Urbana High School and Urbana University. He had a strong desire to coach in the MAC and was also a finalist for the St. Henry job that went to Brad Luthman. The coach’s father, Chris Stokes, is a highly regarded basketball official who works regularly in this area. Frye connection Koby Frye is a new member of the Sidney football staff. Father Doug coached at St. Marys before taking over at Wapakoneta, which beat Bellefontaine 35-17 last week. Bellefontaine hosts Sidney this Friday. Koby’s brother is also on the Wapak staff. Of course, St. Marys is Sidney’s traditional opening game. Eight years ago Koby scored the winning TD against the Jackets in a contest where Sidney was quarterbacked by Devon Langhorst. Now Koby and Devon are both on the Sidney staff. MAC opens 3-7 The Midwest Athletic Conference is accustomed to winning around 75 percent of its non-league games. But last weekend only three of ten MAC members emerged victorious.
Anna and Marion Local were comfortable winners while Fort Recovery got a late tie breaking field goal for the other win. Recovery sophomore Jackson Hobbs booted a 20 yarder to nip Edgerton 24-21. Jackson is the son of principal Jeff Hobbs, who previously held the same position in Sidney. Non-conference success has been a big factor in the large number of playoff berths earned over the years by league members. Turf at Troy? Troy opened its season on the road as a huge downtown riverfront music festival took over the area in and around Troy Memorial Stadium on Labor Day weekend. The stadium is now owned by the school district and brought in a large amount of money that could result in artificial turf being installed in the 10,000 seat venue before the 2014 season. The event that raised the money may return in 2015 in an “every other year” format. TMS has always enjoyed an outstanding natural playing surface but cannot host neutral site OHSAA football playoff games unless it gets synthetic turf. Despite the playoff implication, there’s an influential group in Troy that wants to keep natural grass in the stadium. Piqua’s artificial turf is in its third season. Sidney is in the homestretch of fund raising to install the carpet next spring. Coaches scuffle An Alabama high school football game was marred when coaches from the two teams began fighting on the field after the game. Cullman High School beat
Walker High School 13-10 on a touchdown with 18 seconds left. According to a report, the defeat was bitter for Walker after an official’s mix-up cost the team possession of the ball late in the second half. Video of the fight shows Cullman assistant Matt Hopper jawing briefly with Walker coach John Holladay as other coaches try to herd players off the field. Hollady then cracks Hopper with a right hand and the fight is on. Cullman school offficials said Hooper would not face any disciplinary action, while Hollady was put on administrative leave. The Alabama High School Athletic Association has launched its own investigation. Amputee returns A Montana high school football player whose leg was amputated below the knee less than a year ago scored two touchdowns in his team’s season opener Friday. Koni Dole started at fullback and defensive lineman for Huntley Project High School in Wordan, Mont. Last year, he suffered a compound fracture in the team’s last game of the season. After undergoing multiple surgeries he developed compartment syndrom, which cuts off blood flow to a part of the body after an injury. It was decided the best course of action was to amputate the leg. He said he is in constant pain while playing because the bone of his leg grinds on the prosthetic.
Indians edge Orioles 4-3 CLEVELAND (AP) — Ubaldo Jimenez pitched six shutout innings while Yan Gomes and Asdrubal Cabrera drove in two runs apiece, and the Cleveland Indians survived
a shaky ninth inning for a 4-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night. Jimenez (10-9) has allowed three earned runs or less in eight con-
secutive starts. The right-hander held Baltimore to four hits and worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth. Gomes’ two-run double was the key hit in Cleveland’s sixth. Cabrera had
sacrifices flies in the fourth and sixth. Orioles starter Chris Tillman (155) allowed four runs in 5 1-3 innings. The right-hander has one win in his last six starts.
