brinkmanship entered its sixth day with hundreds of thousands of federal employees furloughed, national parks closed and an array of government services on hold. Lew said Obama has not changed his opposition to coupling a bill to re-open the government and raise the borrowing authority with Republican demands for changes in the 3-year-old health care law and spending cuts. Boehner insisted that Obama must negotiate if the president wants to end the shutdown and avert a default that could trigger a financial crisis and recession that would echo the events of 2008 or worse. The 2008 financial crisis pushed the country into the worst recession since the Great Depression of the 1930s. “We’re not going to pass a clean debt limit increase,” the Ohio Republican said in a television interview. “I told the president, there’s no way we’re going to pass one. The votes are not in the House to pass a clean debt limit, and the president is risking default by not having a conversation with us.” Boehner also said he lacks the votes “to pass a clean CR,” or continuing resolution, a reference to the temporary spending bill without conditions that would keep the government operating. Democrats argue that their 200 members in the House plus close to two dozen pragmatic Republicans would back a so-called clean bill if Boehner just allowed a vote, but he remains hamstrung by his tea party-strong GOP caucus. “Let me issue him a friendly challenge. Put it on the floor Monday or Tuesday. I would bet there are the votes to pass it,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. In a series of Sunday television appearances, Lew warned that on Oct. 17, when he exhausts the bookkeeping maneuvers he has been using to keep borrowing, the threat of default would be imminent. “I’m telling you that on the 17th, we run out of the ability to borrow, and Congress is playing with fire,” Lew said. Lew said that while Treasury expects to have $30 billion of cash on hand on Oct. 17, that money will be quickly exhausted in paying incoming bills given that the government’s payments can run up to $60 billion on a single day. Treasury issued a report on Thursday detailing in stark terms what could happen if the government actually defaulted on its obligations to service the national debt. “A default would be unprecedented and has the potential to be catastrophic,” the Treasury report said. “Credit markets could freeze, the value of the dollar could plummet, U.S. interest rates could skyrocket, the negative spillovers could reverberate around the world.”

From page 1 1998 bombings of the U.S. Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya, which killed more than 220 people. He has been on the FBI’s most wanted terrorists list since it was introduced shortly after the Sept. 11, 2001 attack, with a $5 million bounty on his head. U.S. officials depicted his capture as a significant blow against alQaida, which has lost a string of key figures, including leader Osama bin Laden, killed in a 2011 raid in Pakistan. However, it was unclear whether the 49-year-old al-Libi had a major role in the terror organization — his alleged role in the 1998 attack was to scout one of the targeted embassies — and there was no immediate word that he had been involved in militant activities in Libya. His family and former associates denied he was ever a member of al-Qaida and said he had not been engaged in any activities since coming home in 2011. But the raid signaled
a U.S. readiness to take action against militants in Libya, where al-Qaida and other armed Islamic groups have gained an increasingly powerful foothold since the 2011 ouster and killing of dictator Moammar Gadhafi and have set up tied with a belt of radical groups across North Africa and Egypt. Libya’s central government remains weak, and armed militias — many of them made up of Islamic militants — hold sway in many places around the country, including in parts of the capital. Amid the turmoil, Libyan authorities have been unable to move against militants, including those behind the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, in which the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans were killed. Libyan security officials themselves are regularly targeted by gunmen. The latest victim, a military colonel, was gunned down in Benghazi on Sunday. Several dozen members of the Islamic group
Ansar al-Sharia, which has links to militias, protested on Sunday in Benghazi, Libya’s second largest city, denouncing al-Libi’s abduction and criticizing the government. “Where are the men of Tripoli while this is happening?” they chanted, waving black Islamist flags. Al-Libi’s capture was a bold strike in the Libyan capital. He had just parked his car outside his Tripoli home, returning from dawn prayers Saturday, when 10 commandos in multiple vehicles surrounded him, his brother Nabih al-Ruqai told the Associated Press. They smashed his car’s window and seized his gun before grabbing al-Libi and fleeing. He was swiftly spirited out of the country. U.S. Defense Department spokesman George Little said he was being held “in a secure location outside of Libya.” He did not elaborate further. In a statement Sunday, the Libyan government said it asked the U.S. for “clarifications” about what it called the “kid-
napping,” underlining that its citizens should be tried in Libyan courts if accused of a crime. It said it hoped its “strategic partnership” with Washington would not be damaged by the incident. Still, the relatively softtoned statement underlined the predicament of the Libyan government. It is criticized by opponents at home over its ties with Washington, but it is also reliant on security cooperation with the Americans. According to the federal indictment of al-Libi in a New York court, American prosecutors say he helped the African embassy bombings by scouting and photographing the embassy in Nairobi in 1993. Al-Libi was a computer expert who studied electronic and nuclear engineering at Tripoli University. Al-Libi’s son Abdullah al-Ruqai told The Associated Press his father was a member of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, an Islamic militant group that waged a campaign
of violence against Gadhafi’s regime in the 1990s. Many of the group’s members — including al-Libi, were forced to flee the country at the time. A faction of the group allied with al-Qaida, though others in the group refused to. Al-Libi is believed to have spent time in Sudan in the 1990s, when bin Laden was based there. In 1995, al-Libi later turned up in Britain, where he was granted political asylum under unclear circumstances and lived in Manchester. He was arrested by Scotland Yard in 1999, but released because of lack of evidence and later fled Britain. Abdullah said the family then went to Afghanistan, where they spent a year and a half until they fled into Iran, where they were held in custody for seven years. Abdullah did not elaborate, but Iran jailed a number of al-Qaidalinked figures who fled Afghanistan after the 2001 U.S.-led invasion of that country.

Ohio health care backers urge patience amid delays John Seewer Associated Press
TOLEDO (AP) — Health care providers and other groups that are helping uninsured Ohioans sort out their coverage options are preaching patience after the opening days of the new insurance marketplaces. Computer glitches frustrated many potential applicants searching for available plans, and those looking for someone to walk them through the process may be left waiting for weeks. Those promoting the nation’s new health insurance system say that consumers still have months to make decisions and that it’s more important for people to take their time and make an informed choice — even if that means waiting a month or more. Several organizations in Ohio that received federal money to hire people to guide consumers through the needed steps don’t expect to have all their workers in place until

the beginning of November. “If it’s slower than we hope, we apologize, but we’re going to do it right,” said Lisa Hamler-Fugitt, executive director of the Ohio Association of Foodbanks. The organization received almost $2 million to hire and train 30 to 40 outreach workers and volunteers but didn’t receive state-required certification until Tuesday, the same day the new health insurance system launched. She hopes all the workers will be in place between mid-October and the beginning of November to assist consumers. Consumers have until the end of March to choose a health care plan to avoid tax penalties, but they must sign up by mid-December if they want coverage by Jan. 1. Operators of community health centers in the state plan to use $3.8 million in federal funds to hire 75 workers and train 200 employees to help people enroll.

2 Ohio counties to display veterans’ artwork Amy Knapp Associated Press
MASSILLON (AP) — Willie Lowery Jr. sees every piece of art he creates — every line, every color, every meaning — as a vision before he begins to put marker to paper. When complete, his artwork is full of colorful emotions that flowed from his heart. Lowery’s artwork and other pieces created by area veterans will be on display at the Massillon Museum beginning Nov. 10. The museum, in partnership with the Akron and Massillon chapters of the Daughters of American Revolution and the Ohio Military Museum, will host the exhibit open to veterans who live or work in Stark
and Summit counties. Art, Lowery said, can help a soldier deal with the emotions that stem from war. “No one talks about the ugly truth,” he said. “Veterans are suffering from side effects of soldier’s duties. They can go into lock down. Art will bring them through the tough times.” Lowery, a Vietnam veteran and advocate for fellow veterans, said artwork always has helped him through tough times. Even as a child when sent to his room, he used drawing to get through the punishment. Lowery hopes the art show will allow his fellow veterans the opportunity to display their artwork — from written word to paintings to sculptures and more — and possibly inspire others. “When veterans see how oth-
ers are reaching their dreams, it helps another veteran,” he said. Lowery approached Massillon Museum Director Alexandra Nicholis Coon about a venue for veterans to display artwork. “He shared that he turned to art as therapy after returning from Vietnam,” she said. “(War) shakes your character and he found art a way he could transform potentially negative energy into something positive and was able to move forward.” David Peacock, therapeutic director with Valor Home in Akron, an organization designed to help veterans achieve selfsufficiency including permanent housing, said art therapy is one of the many different therapies used to help veterans. “It gives the veteran the opportunity to tell his story,”
he said. “That usually doesn’t happen in talking therapies. It’s something that is reflective and the images or songs can tell the story without traumatizing themselves again.” The exhibition, Nicholis Coon said, will not only display pieces created by veterans but also honor their service. “A lot of veterans are practicing artists — either amateur or professional. They have a unique perspective,” she said. “We associate these individuals with their service but now we can see their other interests and celebrate those talents.” Nicholis Coon is not sure what to expect from artists but she believes it was a good idea to give these artists an opportunity to showcase their creative talents and interests.
The exhibition is open to professional and amateur artists, she said, and the artists do not have to have any exhibition experience or formal training. She said the first attempt at something is always an adventure but Nicholis Coon is hopeful the show could grow into something more. The exhibition, she said, could travel to VA hospitals and to other venues in and around Stark County. Lowery said the exhibition will give artists exposure and possibly financial gain. Artwork may be for sale. A 30 percent commission usually retained by the museum will be donated to Massillon’s Veterans Park and Duncan Plaza Fund for the preservation and maintenance of the parks, Nicholis Coon said.
Ohio researchers: Stink bugs likely here to stay
Oktoberfest royalty
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — There’s an invasion taking place in homes across Ohio. Stink bugs seeking a warm shelter during the winter are wiggling their way into homes The brown, shieldshaped insects called brown marmorated stink bugs are relatively new to the state, first appearing around 2007, but they aren’t likely to leave anytime soon. “Those stink bugs will probably be a yearly occurrence from now on,” Ron Hammond, an entomologist with Ohio State University Extension
in Wooster, told The Columbus Dispatch. First identified in Pennsylvania in 1998, stink bugs have since been found in 33 states. Researchers suspect they arrived in the United State in shipping containers from Asia. The bugs don’t bite or sting, but they do give off a foul odor when they are squashed. They’re only about a half-inch long. The bugs get into home through tiny cracks, holes and other openings in a home’s exterior. Windows that seal poorly are a common entry point, said Dave Shetlar, another
insect expert with Ohio State. They also can enter home through open soffit and roof vents “These aren’t Houdini bugs,” Shetlar told the Akron Beacon Journal. “They don’t just magically appear in your house.” The insects feeds on a range of ornamental and food plants, he said. Researchers are studying the damage it can do to fruit and soybean crops. Chris Bergh, a University of West Virginia entomologist, said research said scientists have found about a half-dozen pesticides that
seem to work well at combating the pest. Adult stink bugs emerge in June and mate and lay eggs through August. They’ll come inside when the weather turns cool. Paige Spurbeck, who lives in the Columbus suburb of Westerville, said the bugs have overrun her deck. “They’re just nasty,” Spurbeck said. “They smell, and they’re everywhere. They like the patio furniture on our deck, which is really disgusting.”

DULUTH, Minn. (AP) — The group that found a sunken freighter off the shore of Marquette, Mich., this spring has found a second one in Lake Superior that sank more than 60 years ago. Searchers confirmed the location of the Scotiadoc in more than 850 feet of water last month near Thunder Bay, Ontario, possibly making it the deepest shipwreck ever found in the Great Lakes, the Duluth News Tribune reported.
Jerry Eliason, of Cloquet, Minn., is part of the group that has found many lost ships, including the long-sought-after wreck of the Henry B. Smith near Michigan in May. “Finding the Henry B. Smith was the entree; the Scotiadoc was the dessert,” Eliason said. The 424-foot Scotiadoc sank after colliding with the 451-foot freighter Burlington in 1953, killing one person. The Scotiadoc departed

Port Arthur, Ontario — part of what’s now Thunder Bay — with a crew of 29 and nearly 260,000 bushels of wheat on June 20, 1953. About two hours into the voyage, the Scotiadoc and the Burlington were in the vicinity of Trowbridge Island and each ship, the court ruled, made crucial errors as they navigated through thick fog and driving rain. The Burlington plowed into the starboard side of the Scotiadoc at an angle near the stern, gashing a hole in the smaller vessel as its bow scraped along the side. Most of the Scotiadoc crew went to the portside lifeboat, which was

launched successfully. But about a half-dozen crew members went to the starboard-side lifeboat. In heavy seas and with several crew members in the lifeboat, the stern slipped from the deck over the side of the sinking ship, dropping five people about 15 feet into the frigid lake. Four of them grabbed onto ropes and were hauled out of the water. Wallace McDermid, 39, of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, may have had some physical limitations and apparently did get ahold of the raft. He disappeared into the fog and was not seen again. The ship rests upright — and largely intact near Trowbridge Island — about 20 miles southeast of Thunder Bay, with the bow at a depth of 850 feet and the stern at 870 feet. Eliason said it appears the previous record-holder for deepest wreck found in the Great Lakes is the Isaac Jenkins, discovered in Lake Ontario in about 750 feet of water. The Scotiadoc first came to the group’s attention as it searched for the Theano, another shipwreck in the area, Eliason said. Court testimony and other accounts helped the searchers narrow a point from which to start looking.
Nation/World Today in History The Associated Press
Today is Monday, Oct. 7, the 280th day of 2012. There are 85 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 7, 1929, former Interior Secretary Albert B. Fall, one of the main figures of the Teapot Dome scandal, went on trial in Washington, D.C., charged with accepting a bribe from oil tycoon Edward L. Doheny. (Fall was found guilty and sentenced to a year in prison and fined $100,000; he ended up serving nine months. Ironically, Doheny was acquitted at trial of offering the bribe that Fall was convicted of taking.) On this date: In 1612, Italian poet Giovanni Battista Guarini died in Venice. In 1777, the second Battle of Saratoga began during the American Revolution. (British forces under Gen. John Burgoyne surrendered ten days later.) In 1849, author Edgar Allan Poe died in Baltimore at age 40. In 1858, the fifth debate between Illinois senatorial candidates Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas took place in Galesburg. In 1910, a major wildfire devastated the northern Minnesota towns of Spooner and Baudette, charring at least 300,000 acres. Some 40 people are believed to have died. In 1949, the Republic of East Germany was formed. In 1960, Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kennedy and Republican opponent Richard M. Nixon held their second televised debate, in Washington, D.C. In 1982, the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice musical “Cats” opened on Broadway. (The show closed Sept. 10, 2000, after a record 7,485 performances.) In 1985, Palestinian gunmen hijacked the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro in the Mediterranean. (The hijackers, who killed Jewish American tourist Leon Klinghoffer, surrendered two days after taking over the ship.)

Bartender gets $175,000 tip SPRINGFIELD, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon bartender just got the tip of a lifetime. One of Aurora Kephart’s regulars at Conway’s Restaurant and Lounge in Springfield often tips her with Keno tickets from the Oregon Lottery. On Tuesday evening, the man who wishes to remain anonymous asked Kephart to choose two. When she checked the numbers, Kephart’s first ticket won $5. The second turned into a $17,500 gratuity. “The look on his face was incredible,” Kephart, 25, told The Register-Guard newspaper ( ). “I automatically handed it back to him; it was his ticket.” But the man wouldn’t take the ticket and made Kephart sign it so she would be the only one able to collect the prize. Kephart said 80 percent of her customers are regulars, and they were excited for her. “The reaction was crazy,” Kephart said. “Everyone was so amped up.” With the bar busy, Kephart went right back to work, her brain “scrambled” by the big tip. The next day, she claimed her prize at the Oregon Lottery office in Salem. Kephart said she gave the man a percentage of her winnings. “I just couldn’t not give him some of it,” she said. Kephart said she plans to buy a new couch with her share and save the rest. Those modest plans earned her teasing from the bar’s regulars, but she had been looking for a couch before going to work Tuesday and was scared off by the prices. “I never realized how expensive couches were,” she said. “Instead of waiting till Christmas or later, now I can buy something I really need.”

51 killed in street violence Hamza Hendawi The Associated Press
CAIRO (AP) — Security forces and Islamist protesters clashed around the country Sunday, leaving 51 killed, as a national holiday celebrating the military turned to mayhem. Crowds from Egypt’s two rival camps — supporters of the ousted Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi, and backers of the military that deposed him — poured into the streets and turned on each other. Several neighborhoods of the capital, Cairo, resembled combat zones after street battles that raged for hours. Morsi supporters fired birdshot and threw firebombs at police who responded with gunshots and tear gas. Streets were left strewn with debris, and the air was thick with tear gas and smoke from burning fires, as the crack of gunfire rang out. An Associated Press photographer saw nine bodies lying on the floor of a clinic in the Cairo district of Dokki, scene of some of the heaviest clashes. Most of the bodies had gunshot wounds to the head or chest. Sunday’s death toll of 51 was the highest on a single day since Aug. 14 when security

Pro-military crowds and supporters of the former president, Mohammed Morsi, pelt each other with rocks, fireworks and firebombs in street battles near Ramsis Square, Cairo, Egypt, Sunday. The deadly clashes took place on the 40th anniversary of the start of the 1973 Mideast war, a holiday the military-backed government had wanted to use to pay tribute to the armed forces, whose chief ousted Morsi in a popularly supported coup on July 3.
forces raided two sit-in protest camps by Morsi supporters, killing hundreds. Even as fighting continued in the streets, the military went ahead with lavish celebrations for the holiday marking the 40th anniversary of the start of the 1973 Mideast war with Israel. In the evening, a concert was aired live on state TV from
a military-run Cairo stadium where pop stars from Egypt, Lebanon and the Gulf sang anthems to the army and dancers twirled on stage before a cheering crowd. Military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, other top brass and interim President Adly Mansour attended the show. “There are those who think the military can be broken,” el-
Sissi said in an address at the concert. “You see the Pyramids? The military is like the pyramids, because the Egyptian people are on its side.” The clashes were the latest chapter in the turmoil roiling the country since the ouster in February 2011 of autocrat Hosni Mubarak. The new violence is certain to set back efforts by the interim, militarybacked government to revive the economy, especially the vital tourism sector, and bring order to the streets of Cairo, where crime and lawlessness have been rife. Morsi was Egypt’s first civilian and first freely elected president, succeeding four since the early 1950s who hailed from a military background. But after a year in office, Morsi was faced by massive protests demanding his ouster, accusing his Muslim Brotherhood of taking over power — and on July 3, el-Sissi removed him. The military is now back as the real source of power in Egypt, and state and independent media have been depicting it as the country’s savior — with growing calls for elSissi to run in the presidential election due early next year.

People run as an out of control monster truck plows through a crowd of spectators at a Mexican air show in the city of Chihuahua, Mexico, Saturday. According to authorities, at least eight people were killed and 79 were injured.
Mexican monster truck wreck kills 8, hurts dozens Jose Antonio Sanchez and Ricardo Chavez Associated Press
CHIHUAHUA, Mexico (AP) — An out-of-control monster truck shot into a crowd of spectators at a Mexican air show, killing eight people and hurting 79, officials said. The driver was detained Sunday on suspicion of manslaughter and officials said they were investigating possible safety violations in the setup of the show. Carlos Gonzalez, spokesman for the Chihuahua state prosecutors’ office, said driver Francisco Velazquez appeared to lose control of the truck after leaping over cars it was crushing during a demonstration at the “Extreme Aeroshow” on Saturday. Video taken from the stands by spectator Krizthall Martinez and provided to The Associated Press shows the truck making an initial pass over two cars. It then makes a second pass at higher speed, coming down sharply nose first and bouncing violently before piling straight into the crowd, which stood directly in the path of the monster truck
unprotected by any wall or barrier. The three-day show, which included performances by airplanes, the monster truck acts and other events, was canceled after the accident on its second day in a park on the outskirts of Chihuahua, the capital of Chihuahua state. On Sunday, two armed men threw a firebomb at monster trucks and other vehicles parked at a hotel that were part of an unrelated monster truck production at the air show. Chihuahua Gov. Cesar Duarte Juarez said his administration, which was listed as a sponsor of the air show, was investigating whether Civil Protection authorities had correctly enforced safety regulations. He and other officials didn’t say if those regulations required any protective barrier for spectators. Some witnesses said the driver appeared to have hit his head on the interior of the truck, which is nicknamed “Big Show,” as he drove over the old cars. At least two reporting seeing the driver’s helmet come off before the huge vehicle drove into the crowd of terrified spectators, who tried to flee.
BEIRUT (AP) — International disarmament experts on Sunday began dismantling and destroying Syria’s chemical weapons arsenal and the equipment used to produce it, taking the first concrete step in their colossal task of eliminating the country’s chemical stockpile by mid-2014, an official said. The inspectors from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons have about nine months to purge President Bashar Assad’s regime of its chemical program. The mission, endorsed by the U.N. Security Council, faces the tightest deadline in the watchdog group’s history and must simultaneously navigate Syria’s bloody civil war. Sunday marked the fifth day that an advance team of around 20 inspectors have been in the country and the first day that involved actually disabling and destroying weapons and machinery, an official on the joint OPCW-U.N. mission said. The production equipment included filling and mixing machinery, some of it mobile, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The Syrians are responsible for the actual physical demolition of the materials, while OPCW inspectors monitor the process and verify what is being destroyed, the official said. He declined to provide details or say where the work took place. This is just the beginning of a complicated process to eliminate Syria’s estimated 1,000-ton chemical weapons stockpile and the facilities that created it. Damascus developed its chemical program in the 1980s and 1990s, building an arsenal that is believed to contain mustard gas and the nerve agents sarin VX and tabun. The production and storage facilities are understood to be scattered around the country. The OPCW-U.N. advance team arrived last week to lay the foundations for a broader operation of nearly 100 inspectors. Those already in Syria have been double-checking the Assad regime’s initial disclosure of what weapons and chemical precursors it has and where they are located. Members of the team are planning visits to every location where chemicals or weapons are stored — from trucks loaded with munitions up to full-on production sites.
Midwest lawmakers: Don’t blame me for shutdown David Eggert Associated Press
LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Republicans in the Midwest would like you to know something about the government shutdown that closed the national parks and put 800,000 workers on the street: They had nothing to do with it. Please don’t blame them. That message spilled out of the offices of state legislators, and even governors, in public statements, tweets and interviews as politicians outside Washington scrambled to insulate themselves from the partisan turmoil that sent repercussions across the country. No shutdowns here, they assured, in one state capital after another. We wouldn’t do that. “Here in Lansing, we will continue to work hard on solutions to issues facing Michigan’s families,” declared Rep. Al Pscholka, a conservative Republican from southwestern Michigan. Said Republican Gov. Rick Snyder about his way with bud-
get problems: “We came in, did tax reform, balanced the budget, have done that several years successfully.” In Missouri, Republican Sen. Ryan Silvey of Kansas City joked on Twitter that he couldn’t tweet because of the shutdown but added: “Oh, wait. We passed our budget, balanced & on time. Nevermind. As you were.” The shutdown began Tuesday after a group of tea party Republicans in Congress made a last-ditch effort to block funding for President Barack Obama’s health insurance overhaul. Apparent to all, even in state capitals miles away, were the lessons of the shutdowns during Bill Clinton’s presidency. Many voters blamed Republicans and exacted retribution in the next election. Should any partisan blame start flying now, state politicians, especially moderate Republicans in the Midwest, want cover. In Michigan, Snyder, who fought tough battles over fiscal issues with Democrats in the GOP-controlled Legislature,
made his state’s budget negotiating process sound like a high school civics class. His advice to his federal counterparts: “Stop blaming, stop taking credit, get in a room, solve the problem and keep moving forward.” Rep. Joe Haveman, another Republican from western Michigan, said his colleagues like budget agreements, not blocking them. Lawmakers got a “budget approved four months early,” he said. “That’s the new normal in Lansing.” But Michigan Democrats noted that Snyder and the Republicans also rammed a right-to-work measure through the Legislature with no compromise, prompting huge union protests at the Capitol. Michigan’s aversion to shutdowns was heightened by two brief but embarrassing deadlocks in 2007 and 2009 that brought scorn down on both parties. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon, a Democrat, was among those testifying to the virtues of com-
promise and conciliation. This after months of pitched battles with his Republican Legislature, in which he vetoed 29 bills and waged a cross-state public campaign to kill a GOP-approved tax cut. While the federal government closes, he said, “We reach across the aisle to balance budgets, control spending and protect our AAA credit rating.” Most polling immediately before the shutdown showed Republicans taking more heat from the public than Obama. No major polls have been released since workers were sent home Tuesday. The potential for backlash is especially dangerous for Republicans in battleground states like Michigan where independents, not the tea party, decide elections. The GOP in several Midwestern states takes a less combative approach to interparty differences, in contrast to tea party bastions like Texas, home of anti-Obamacare leader Sen. Ted Cruz.

Place an old pair of pantyhose over your hand and gently run your hand along the inside of the dryer. If you feel the pantyhose snag or catch on something, you have a nick. Most paint stores carry touch-up enamel that you can use to cover the area. To remove the stains left on your clothing, use a commercial rust remover. They are available in the fabric-dye section at most grocery stores. Or try white vinegar. Never use bleach on a rust stain, because it can intensify the spot.

Tips for fire safety DAYTON — Paul Davis Restoration and Remodeling of Dayton, a leading provider of water, fire and mold damage clean up and restoration services for residential and commercial properties, is participating in National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Fire Prevention Week, this week. This year’s fire safety campaign theme is Prevent Kitchen Fires, which focuses on unattended cooking as the leading cause of home fires, along with teaching homeowners how to prevent kitchen fires from starting to begin with. Fire Prevention Week is the longest running public health and safety observance on record. According to the latest NFPA research, two of every five home fires start in the kitchen — more than any other place in the home. Fires that start in the kitchen can be dangerous when left burning for only a few minutes and may result in significant damage and injuries. Visit the website at www. nfpa.org. Davis suggests the following tips to help keep homeowners and their families safe: • Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, broiling, or boiling food. • If you must leave the
room, even for a short period of time, turn off the stove. • When you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, stay in the home, and use a timer to remind you. • If you have young children, use the stove’s back burners whenever possible. Keep children and pets at least three away from the stove. • When you cook, wear clothing with tight-fitting sleeves. • Keep potholders, oven mitts, wooden utensils, paper and plastic bags, towels, and anything else that can burn, away from your stovetop. • Clean up food and grease from burners and stovetops. • Smoke alarms should be installed in the kitchen and throughout the home; never remove or disable smoke alarms. Test smoke alarms at least monthly by pushing the test button. • Install carbon monoxide detectors. • Have a family plan in place and conduct a home fire drill at least twice a year. • Have a portable ladder in each second floor room. • Check fire extinguishers for expiration and replace as needed. • Have an updated, emergency first aid kit.

Therapists learn new technique VERSAILLES — Four therapists at Versailles Health Care Center recently received training in sound-assisted soft-tissue mobilization (SASTM). Physical therapists Stephanie Goubeaux and Stephen Winner, physical therapist assistant Jennifer Everman and certified occupational therapist assistant Cindy Bowers are now certified in this soft tissue technique and offer it at the Rehab Clinic at Versailles Health Care Center. The SASTM method is used by the National Football League, National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball, Cirque du Soleil, USA Olympics and Track and Field, NIKE Training Center, and university athletic training pro-
grams. By doing the same SASTM method, Versailles Health Care Center patients receive the same outcomes as professional and amateur athletes. SASTM, a researchbased method developed by David Graston, is a form of soft-tissue mobilization, which enables clinicians to efficiently locate and treat individuals diagnosed with softtissue dysfunction. The SASTM method allows the clinician to detect scar tissue and treat it in a manner utilizing a variety of ceramic-polymerbased tools, as opposed to using hands alone. The instruments used provide the clinician with a mechanical advantage and are also sensitive to subtle restrictions in the tissue. SASTM has
proven to have highly effective results. Based on the gua sha technique used in Chinese medicine for hundreds of years, SASTM assists in crossfiber massage. This is used to find and break down areas exhibiting soft-tissue fibrosis or constant inflammation. The micro trauma inflicted through the instrument initiates a healing flow, and then ice and stretching are used to help control pain, remodel tissue and restore function. Soft-tissue mobilization has been used to treat a number of diagnoses. SASTM has most effectively been used in the restoration of function and the reduction of pain. SASTM can help to treat achilles tendonitis (heel pain), ankle strains/sprains (medial/
lateral), bicep tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, cervical pain (neck), DeQuervain’s syndrome (Gamer’s thumb), frozen shoulder, groin pulls, hammer toe, hamstring injuries, hip replacements, joint contractures, knee replacements, knee sprains, lumbar/sacral pain (low back), medial/lateral epicondylitis, Morton’s neuroma, musculoskeletal imbalances, patellar tendonitis (anterior knee pain), quadriceps injuries, rotator cuff tendonitis, scars (surgical/traumatic), shin splints, sacral iliac pain (low back), tarsal tunnel syndrome, thoracic pain (mid-back), tibialis posterior tendonitis, trigger finger and turf toe.

Is it a cause for concern, and is there anything I can do to decrease the number? Thank you for your input. — J.S. ANSWER: GGT is an enzyme made in the liver. It is very commonly elevated, and often there is no reason found for the elevation. Gallbladder disease can cause elevations, as can other uncommon liver, pancreas and gallbladder problems. Only about a third of people with moderately increased levels of GGT, like yours, were found to have identifiable disease. Both Toviaz and Dexilant occasionally can cause elevations in GGT, though this
does not mean you need to discontinue the medication. If your level remains elevated, it might be worthwhile to hold the medication for a week or so and recheck the level. If it is then normal, you know the cause. If the level continues to increase, your doctor may consider a CT scan or ultrasound. DEAR DR. ROACH: Like your correspondent M.T., I suffered from frequent gout, and was treated with colchicine and allopurinol. In a patient’s leaflet I noticed that chlorthalidone, which had been prescribed to me for control of blood pressure, is known to exacerbate gout. My physician prescribed a different blood pressure medication and I stopped chlorthalidone. I have continued allopurinol, now at a lower dose, no longer use colchicine, and have been free of gout more than two years. Because many gout sufferers probably also are

People who have addictions are usually in denial until they have no other choice but to face it. Your feeling guilty won’t help this situation. Being supportive of your longtime friend and making sure that when you’re together there is no wagering happening (i.e., on sporting events) would be helpful. The rest is up to him. DEAR ABBY: I recently ended a two-year relationship with my boyfriend. We are both 20. He was a great boyfriend — always patient, kind, gentle and loving. However, I was often impatient, short-tempered and controlling. These issues
were my personal problems. I always tried to work on them, but although it got better, I knew I wasn’t treating him the way I should. I ended things with him because I felt guilty. It has been a month now, and I’m having second thoughts about having ended it with an almost-perfect person. I miss him. Would it be unwise to reach out to him again? — BROKEN UP BUT NOT OVER IT DEAR NOT OVER IT: Not necessarily. But before you do, allow yourself a period of introspection during which you focus less on your missing him and concentrate on why you were abusive to him. A man with his qualities deserves to be treated with more respect than you showed him. The truism, “If you don’t value what you’ve got, you will lose it,” applies to relationships.

100 years Oct. 7, 1913 Relatives in Sidney have received a cablegram from Arthur Kah from Nome, Alaska, saying that he is all right, but that the assay office where he was employed was completely destroyed by the storm and tidal wave that swept Nome a few days ago, causing a loss of over $2,000,000. ––––– Feeling against the Socialist administration marked by periodic outburst since the Socialist party went into power in St. Marys two years ago, culminated late yesterday afternoon in an angry mob storming the city hall and threatening to “string up the mayor.” ––––– Frank Pruden, a Sidney boy, had the honor of being elected captain of the freshman football team at Miami university. He was also captain of the Sidney High school football team in 1912. Voress Loudenback, another Sidney High school graduate, is playing halfback on the Miami freshman team, the same position he played in high school. 75 years Oct. 7, 1938 Parking problems occupied the attention of city council at their regular meeting last evening, with Mayor Sexauer advising the members 30 minute parking spaces were desired and also urged that the alleys off the public square for one block be made one-way in an effort to safeguard pedestrians. Councilman Winemiller stated that in his opinion the “30 minute” parking spaces had been experimented with long enough and it was time that legislation was formulated regarding double parking, over parking in restricted zones, and speeding. ––––– C.W. Couser was elected president of the Sidney Kiwanis club at the annual election held during the regular meeting yesterday noon. Other officers elected were:Rev. W. Wood Duff, vice-president; Arthur Allinger, treasurer, Gilbert Carie, Harry Tahl, Asa Fogt, Prof. C.C. Crawford, M.B. McKee, George Lohmire, and Kenneth McDowell, members of the board of directors. 50 years Oct. 7, 1963 FORT LORAMIE — Beginning on or about October 10, the Shelby county area will have the
services of a woman physician, Dr. Marllyn McCorkle. Dr.McCorkle, wife of Dr.Charles E. McCorkle, Jr. will begin seeing patients on that date in the office of Dr. William A. Schroer, 35 South Main street, Fort Loramie, the latter announced today. Dr. Schroer presently is recovering from a fractured hip, suffered in a fall in his home, and will be disabled for several months, after which he plans to return to his full practice. ––––– PIQUA — The Miami river below the Lockington Dam is the lowest it has been in 47 years, City Manager Robert M. Hance said Sunday. Some places along the river it is only 15 feet across he added. Officials at the water plant where water is pumped from the river for purification and distribution said the reason is that during the last four months only .26 of an inch of rainfall has been recorded. 25 years Oct. 7, 1988 DAYTON — The United States Air Force Museum near Dayton, is gearing up for a celebration. “Shoo Shoo Baby” is coming home. After undergoing a 10-year restoration by volunteers at the 512th Military Airlift Wing at Dover A.F.B., Delaware, this Boeing B-17 G, one of three World War II combat veterans known to exist in museums today, will arrive at the museum Oct. 15 at 11 a.m. ––––– The Alcoa Building Products division of Stolle Corp. will soon consolidate its customer sales and support activities in a new office building being constructed on Fairington Drive. The 16,000 square foot office building will be leased from Fair, Inc. The building is under construction and will be completed in early 1989, according to Herbert Schlater, president of Fair, Inc.

Odds and ends SALEM, Mass. (AP) — The partial federal government shutdown is riling witches and visitors alike in the Massachusetts city that held the notorious witch trials of 1692, where officials have lined up dozens of volunteers and some portable toilets to replace services lost when the National Park Service closed its visitor center. Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll said Friday the timing of the shutdown couldn’t be worse for the city that sees a quarter of its annual visitors during October’s “Haunted Happenings.”

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE
For Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You'll be careful and cautious when dealing with anything you own jointly with others. This is the kind of day where you think about inheritances and your own mortality. ("Time to go, Martha." "Go? We just got here!") TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Conversations with others will be stilted and formal today, because people feel cautious and conservative. Everyone is hiding behind a game face. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You have excellent powers of concentration today, which is why you should tackle routine work you've been avoiding. You easily will pay attention to details. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Discussions about the care, expense and education of children will be productive today. People are in a serious frame of mind and ready to discuss serious issues. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) An older family relative might have good advice for you today. Alternatively, the same person might rain on your parade. Could go either way. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You can get lots of mental work done today. You're in a serious frame of mind, and you want to get organized so that you feel more secure about everything around you. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Why is there so much month left at the end of the money? Today you feel financially cautious. Actually, many of you feel broke. (Join the club. We've got jackets.) SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is an excellent day for practical discussions or long-range planning. You want to secure loose ends and finish whatever is already begun. You won't mind drudgery and routine to complete the job.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Someone older and more experienced will be involved with you in a group situation today. This person might be supportive or he or she might criticize your suggestions. (Ouch.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Conversations with bosses, parents and VIPs will be serious but productive today. People are not frivolous or impulsive. Oh no. They're making lists and checking off who is naughty or nice. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Travel likely will be related to work today. This is a good day to study because you have the self-discipline to do so. YOU BORN TODAY You're romantic and easily carried away by your feelings. You want your life to be an exciting adventure. You're imaginative, daring and willing to push boundaries to explore new territory. Because of this, you sometimes get swept away with your plans and wishes to create the world you want. This is a lovely, social year for you, where all your relationships will improve. Birthdate of: Dylan Neal, actor; Matt Damon, actor; Emily Procter, actress.

Ohio State victorious over Northwestern
Jim Naveau Civitas Media
EVANSTON, Ill. – Ohio State’s players ran to celebrate their 40-30 win over Northwestern with their fans on Saturday night when it was over. And Northwestern quickly ran under the canopy to its locker room like so many other Wildcats teams have done the last 40 years against Ohio State. No. 16 Northwestern (4-1, 0-1 Big Ten) had the No. 4 Buckeyes (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten) on the ropes when it led 23-13 with just over four minutes left in the third quarter in what was billed as the biggest home game at Northwestern since at least 1995. But OSU roared back with 20 fourth-quarter points, including a fumble recovery in the endzone by Joey Bosa as time ran out, to make the game look not quite as close as it really was. The win was the eighteenth in a row for Ohio State and kept Urban Meyer undefeated as the Buckeyes’ coach. It was the 29th time in the last 30 games between Ohio State and Northwestern that OSU came out on top. Carlos Hyde rushed for 168 yards on 26 carries and scored three touchdowns – all in the second half – on a night when quarterback Braxton Miller had a sub-par game and No. 2 tailback Jordan Hall couldn’t play because of a knee injury. And in the end, OSU’s defense, which had struggled much of the game,
came up with a huge play. Ohio State coach Urban Meyer described the game as “a street fight.” “They’ve got very good players and borderline great players at some positions,” he said about Northwestern. “Obviously, there are a lot of thing to fix. But a win against a top 20 team on the road, I’m proud of our guys,” Meyer said. The lead changed hands three times in just over six minutes in the fourth quarter. Ohio State, which had fallen behind 23-13, took its first lead since the first quarter at 27-23 when Hyde scored a touchdown on a two-yard run that wasn’t confirmed until the replay booth reversed the call on the field. That score, which was set up by Doran Grant’s interception at Northwestern’s 12-yard line, came with 11:29 left in the game. Northwestern responded with an 80-yard touchdown drive that ended with quarterback Trevor Siemian throwing a 12-yard touchdown pass to Cameron Dickerson to put the Wildcats back on top at 30-27 with 9:10 left in the game. Ohio State came right back with an 81-yard drive to go in front 34-30 with 5:22 to play on a 7-yard run by Hyde. Northwestern moved to Ohio State’s 34-yard line with 2:43 left, but came up inches short on a fourth down situation. Kain Colter, the other half of Northwestern’s quarterback duo, fumbled the snap on the play, picked it up but came up

just short. Siemian (13 of 18 for 245 yards) and Colter (12 of 12 for 98 yards) combined to complete 25 of 30 passes for 343 yards and two touchdowns against an Ohio State defense that appeared to be missing injured safety Christian Bryant quite a bit. OSU’s Miller completed 15 of 26 passes for 203 yards and no touchdowns. He also rushed for 68 yards on 17 carries. But he lost two fumbles and threw an interception. Ohio State fell behind 20-13 at halftime, then watched Northwestern get a field goal in the
third quarter to go up 23-13. In a forgettable first half, OSU had two turnovers, two quarters of its defense offering mostly token resistance to Northwestern’s offense and some questionable decisions by both players and coaches. Though Northwestern outgained the Buckeyes by only eight yards in the first two quarters (213208), it looked worse than that because the Wildcats were the aggressor and OSU was reacting, often a step late. Ohio State’s first drive was a preview of their problems in the first two
quarters. With Miller hitting 5 of his first 6 passes, they moved to Northwestern’s 9-yard line. But then the offense stalled and they had to settle for a 27-yard field goal by Drew Basil and a 3-0 lead. If that opening drive shortcoming was a preview, their second possession was a punch in the face. Northwestern defensive end Tyler Scott stripped the ball from Miller’s hands as he pressured him, then recovered the ball at Ohio State’s 23-yard line. Four plays later, Siemian delivered a
9-yard scoring pass to Colter, who had lined up as a slot receiver. It was the first time Ohio State was behind this season. The Buckeyes seemed to turn the momentum their way when Bradley Roby blocked a punt and recovered it in the end zone for a touchdown to give OSU a 10-7 lead with 2:33 left in the first quarter. But Northwestern was unshaken and drove 75 yards in 10 plays to go up 14-10 when Colter scored on a 2-yard run with 13:19 left in the first half. Ohio State answered with a 20-yard field goal by Basil to make it 14-13, but it was the second time OSU had gotten inside Northwestern’s 10-yard line and come away with only a field goal. Basil’s field goal came one play after Miller overthrew wide open Chris Fields in the endzone. Miller hit only 2 of his last 9 passes in the first half for 34 yards. Meanwhile, Colter and Siemian hit 10 of their first 11 throws and 11 of 13 for 144 yards overall. After a 23-yard field goal by Jeff Budzien put Northwestern ahead 17-13, Ohio State gambled and lost when it called a fake punt by punter Cameron Johnston from its own 32-yard line. Johnston was stopped for a two-yard loss and Budzien got his second field goal of the night on a 30-yarder.
Bengals end Brady’s streak CINCINNATI (AP) — Tom Brady couldn’t get into the end zone against a defense that’s developing a reputation for taking down the league’s top quarterbacks. Aaron Rodgers found out. And so did Brady, running on empty all game long. The Bengals ended Brady’s streak of 52 consecutive games with a touchdown pass on Sunday, sacking him on his first pass attempt and keeping the pressure going. The defense even helped BenJarvus Green-Ellis get into the end zone for the game’s only touchdown in a 13-6 victory over the previously undefeated Patriots. It was so impressive that defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer was handed a raindrenched game ball in the locker room. “That’s a great accomplishment,” coach Marvin Lewis said. “I don’t normally give out game balls, but I gave that one to Zimmer. They played well today. They were tight in coverage most of the day. Upfront, they got after it.” Geno Atkins sacked Brady on his first pass attempt, and the
Bengals (3-2) dropped him four times overall. And that wasn’t all: New England (4-1) failed to get into the end zone after a first-and-goal from the 1-yard line in the fourth quarter. One yard too much for New England? Stunning. “I’m bummed that we lost,” Brady said of his broken streak. “I think that’s all that really matters.” A driving rain moved in just before New England’s final chance. After a couple of dropped passes, Brady threw one toward the goal line and Adam “Pacman” Jones made a juggling interception inside the Cincinnati 5-yard line. Some finish. “We knew we were going to have our hands full, but we were able to get to Brady on the second play,” defensive tackle Domata Peko said. “After that, you could see he was a little shaky. If you hit somebody enough, they’re going to make mistakes.” Brady had thrown a touchdown pass in 52 straight games, the second-longest streak in NFL history behind Drew Brees’ 54-game streak. The Patriots were held out of
the end zone for the first time since a 16-9 loss to the Jets on Sept. 20, 2009. “All week long, all you guys were talking about was Tom Brady,” safety Chris Crocker said. “We wanted them to be talking about us.” They are now, with good reason. Two weeks earlier at Paul Brown Stadium, the Bengals’ defense stymied Rodgers in a 34-30 win over Green Bay, overcoming four turnovers by Cincinnati’s offense that gave the Packers good field position. Brady never got into a rhythm against Cincinnati’s unrelenting pass rush. He finished 18 of 38 for 197 yards with one interception and a paltry passer rating of 52.2. Cincinnati’s defense even had a hand — well, a shoulder — in the winning touchdown. The Bengals had failed to score a touchdown during a 17-6 loss at Cleveland, one that left them looking to establish an identity on offense by running the ball. They did what they wanted in one grinding drive. Cincinnati went 93 yards in 14 plays for its touchdown,

holding the ball for 7 minutes, 48 seconds. Peko came in as a blocking fullback on third-andgoal from inside the 1-yard line but took off too soon, a false start. Andy Dalton scrambled to the 1 on a keeper, and Peko came in and plowed the way for Green-Ellis to score on fourth down. Dalton was 20 of 27 for 212 yards with four sacks and one costly interception. He scrambled away from pressure and threw back across the field in the first quarter, getting intercepted by Brandon Spikes at the 8-yard line. It was the first time during his three-year career that Dalton threw an interception on a play that started inside the opponent’s 20-yard line. Given how the defense was playing, the one touchdown drive was good enough. “It’s definitely fun to watch those guys go out and play,” Dalton said. “They’re doing so
many good things, and to see what they do to a guy like Tom Brady and what they’ve done to a lot of these quarterbacks — they’re some of the best in the league. “They’re playing unbelievable.” Notes: Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski was inactive for the fifth time. He’s recovering from a forearm injury and back surgery. … Brady had been 4-0 against the Bengals with a 114 passer rating. … WR Austin Collie, signed on Thursday, also was inactive. … DL Tommy Kelly hurt his right knee in the fourth quarter but walked off the field. … New England has a takeaway in 32 straight games, the longest active streak in the league. … Bengals CB Leon Hall missed a second straight game with a hamstring injury. ——— AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org

National Paper Clover Campaign continues support of Shelby County 4-H youth The National 4-H Council has announced the launch of the fall 2013 4-H Paper Clover Campaign in partnership with Tractor Supply Company (TSC). This event marks the fourth year of collaboration between the organizations on the national in-store fundraiser, benefiting state and local 4-H programming in each of the communities where a TSC or Delâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Farm and Feed Supply store is located. The fall 2013 4-H Paper Clover Campaign will take place Wednesday through Oct. 20. Shoppers at the Sidney TSC store will have the opportunity to support 4-H in Shelby County by choosing to purchase paper clovers for a $1 or more at checkout. During the spring 2013 4-H Paper Clover Campaign, Sidney TSC was recognized for winning the Paper Clover â&#x20AC;&#x153;District Championâ&#x20AC;? award for being the store with the highest transaction percent-
age in the district during the 4-H/TSC Spring 2013 Paper Clover Promotion. The spring campaign raised more than $500,000 that supports 4-H on the local, state and national level. During the 12-day promotion, which ran May 8-19, the Sidney TSC raised $364 for 4-H in Shelby County.

The effort has provided direct support for local camps, after-school programs and other activities, and has granted scholarships to these events that youth can explore their interests in everything from animal science to robotics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Paper Clover efforts are one of the key ways our stores can give back to the community,â&#x20AC;? said John Wendler, senior vice president of Marketing for Tractor Supply Company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By providing essential funding for hundreds of thousands of 4-H young people, we are able to support local organizations that are important to both our customer and our Team Members.

Ohio Department of Agriculture offers tips for purchasing firewood REYNOLDSBURG â&#x20AC;&#x201D; As winter quickly approaches and more Ohioans look to firewood to help heat their homes, Director David Daniels of the Ohio Department of Agriculture is asking Ohioans to be aware of some basic tips to help when purchasing wood. Prior to purchasing, the following firewood rules and regulations are helpful to know: â&#x20AC;˘ Non-packaged firewood must be sold by the cord or by fractions of a cord. One cord, when properly stacked, should be 8 feet long by 4 feet high and 4 feet wide (128 cubic feet). â&#x20AC;˘ If sold in bulk, firewood must be purchased by the weight in ton measurements. This must be weighed on a certified scale. â&#x20AC;˘ It is illegal to sell firewood by any other unit of measurement such as a rick, rack, face cord or truckload. If a consumer believes that a seller did not comply with these rules and regulations, the
person should immediately contact the seller. â&#x20AC;˘ If non-packaged firewood is purchased, the seller must present the consumer with a delivery ticket or sales invoice that includes contact information and the terms and conditions of the sale. â&#x20AC;˘ If firewood is advertised and sold as â&#x20AC;&#x153;seasoned,â&#x20AC;? it must have a moisture content of less than 50 percent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unseasonedâ&#x20AC;? wood will only produce two-thirds of the heat of â&#x20AC;&#x153;seasonedâ&#x20AC;? wood. â&#x20AC;˘ If the firewood is advertised and sold as a certain type of wood, the load must contain at least 90 percent of that species. If a problem occurs with a firewood sale, and the seller will not correct the problem, consumers should contact the Ohio Department of Agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Division of Weights and Measures at 1-800-282-1955 or contact a local weights and measures inspector located in each county auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office.
