Sandy mutated from hurricane into monster

AP Science Writer

M7I>?D=JED 7F Ă… ?j was the moment a run-of-themill hurricane mutated into a monster named Sandy.

Paradoxically, it was the same time Sandy lost much of its wind power, dropping from a hurricane to a tropical storm. It was a Friday night

and Sandy had just passed the Bahamas and was being enveloped by an ordinary cold front coming off the Southeast. It was changing how it got its power, where its highest winds were and even what it looked like.

But mostly it was getting bigger. Dangerously large.

And then it merged with a second storm, turned record

huge and pivoted toward the nation’s largest city.

It was that enormity that set off alarms in the people who knew weather, especially those living in the New York area.

For a week forecasts placed Sandy on its path toward New York and it was it sticking to it.

Months earlier, Princeton University professor Michael

Oppenheimer had written a scientific study about the dangers of storms hitting the nation’s largest city, and now he was watching one develop.

He was enthralled but fearful, hoping that the forecasts would change. “It was just this monster coming at us,� he said.

Leaders push immigration bill COLUMBUSâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Business, faith, and conservative leaders from Ohio will travel to Washington, D.C. to meet with key members of the Ohio congressional delegation to discuss the economic

Why is the income tax so important?

Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s note: In preparation for the November general election, the Sidney Daily News, in conjunction with the Citizens for Sidney Schools levy committee, will be publishing a question of the week to inform voters about the five-year, 1 percent income tax levy.

It is safe to say that the vast majority of us want good schools and we want to live up to that responsibility through the wise use of our

LEVY UPDATE resources. After seven failed levies, historic cuts in Sidney City Schools expenditures and a currently favorable 5-year financial forecast, we wonder where we can go from here.

The proposed 5-year, traditional income tax is a good plan. It continues the stability of the District that the community has enjoyed during the past two years. It funds

continuation of the solid programs of Sidney City Schools at current revenue levels by simply replacing that portion of our property tax revenue which is going away. The traditional income tax distributes the responsibility of financSee LEVY | 2

Commissioners eye insurance

Bill From page 1 Maplewood-based grower and Shelby County GOP Chair Chris Gibbs. “I’m excited about the opportunity to join a great group of leaders as we meet with Ohio members of Congress to push for passage of comprehensive immigration reform this year.”

These community leaders and others will be advocat- Gibbs ing for the passage of legislation that incorporates the following principles: • Increased access to high-skill visas that will meet the demands of our growing economy.

• Making low-skill, temporary visas easier to obtain, so that the agricultural industry may have access to critical seasonal workers when needed.

• Border security must be included as a centerpiece of the legislation.

• An employer “e-verify” verification process that will ensure all employers follow the law without having to deal with unnecessary burdens.

• A solution for addressing currently undocumented immigrants, especially the children who have grown up in America and were brought

here through no fault of their own.

The Ohio leaders are heading to Washington as part of the “Americans for Reform: Immigration Reform for our Economy, Faith, and Security” event. The event is a joint effort being organized by the Partnership for a New American Economy, Bibles Badges and Business, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and FWD.us.

About the Partnership for a New American Economy The Partnership for a New American Economy brings together more than 500 Republican, Democratic, and Independent mayors and business leaders who support sensible immigration

reforms that will help create jobs for Americans today.

The Partnership’s members include mayors of more than 35 million people nationwide and business leaders of companies that generate more than $1.5 trillion and employ more than 4 million people across all sectors of the economy, from Agriculture to Aerospace, Hospitality to High Tech, and Media to Manufacturing. Partnership members understand that immigration is essential to maintaining the productive, diverse, and flexible workforce that America needs to ensure prosperity over the coming generations.

The Shelby County Commissioners discussed insurance for county employees and took other action during their meeting Thursday.

The commissioners met with Kevin Svarda, AFLAC regional sales coordinator; Curtis Reno, district sales coordinator; and Keith Fletcher, special projects coordinator. AFLAC provides health coverage for county employees. The commissioners and AFLAC representatives discussed the enrollment period, which begins for county employees in November.

The AFLAC representatives discussed some of the policy changes that will be available to county employ-

ees. County employees pay for the policies themselves through payroll deduction.

Shelby County does not pay for any of the cost of the premiums for employees.

In other business, the commissioners approved: • The transfer of appropriations of $891.48 from the workers’ compensation fund to the salaries fund at the Shelby County Animal Shelter.

• The transfer of $2,000 from the general fund to the Shelby County Animal Shelter.

• A Moving Ohio Forward Demolition Program contract in the amount of $5,750.

• Paying the county bills for the week in the amount of $1,405,838.12.

us back to 2009 when dramatic cuts began. To date we have incurred $6.6 million in annual cuts without hampering the students’ education. Further cuts will have a devastating impact. Passage of the levy insures that we continue with a fiscally sound program for the next five years. It gives the school and taxpayers a limited five years

to see how the traditional income tax works for all.

All the Levy Committee can ask at this point is for everyone to balance their needs with that of the community and vote accordingly.

This vote is so important, because we just may never again get this close to a solution. To paraphrase General Patton, a good plan executed

now is better than a perfect plan (which we may never find) executed later.

Trevor M. Newbauer, 39, 1527 E. Court St., has been indicted by a grand jury on a third-degree felony charge of robbery for that earlier crime.

In that robbery, officers

were dispatched to the bank about 12:09 p.m. on a report of a robbery that had just occurred. According to the initial investigation, the suspect gave the teller a note saying he had a gun and threatened to shoot her if she did not give him the money.

After receiving approximately $600, the thief exited through the bank’s back doors and fled on a bicycle. Upon review of the surveillance video, the suspect was immediately recognized as Newbauer, according to reports. Officers responded to his address where he was taken into custody. His face reportedly was bleeding from a recent shave.

The initial investigation reports that after leaving the bank, Newbauer got a ride from a relative to Dairy Mart, where he purchased two money orders, then returned to his apartment complex and attempted to pay his rent with the money orders.

Reports said he attempted to conceal his involvement by shaving his face and discarding his jeans worn in the robbery. Recovered as evidence were the jeans and sunglasses, as well as the bicycle.

Recovered from Dairy Mart was the marked money stolen by Newbauer during the incident and a video of him purchasing the money orders.

Associated Press

COLUMBUS (AP) — What was once the largest private employer in its region is now Ohio’s largest industrial layoff of the year.

Republican Gov. John Kasich is facing criticism over the indefinite shuttering of Ormet Corp. , an aluminum smelting giant along the Ohio River and the onetime largest customer of American Electric Power. About 1,000 workers — mostly unionized steelworkers — are out of work.

State utility regulators this month rejected key portions of Ormet’s proposal for dealing with hefty electric costs through accelerated power discounts from AEP and eventual on-site power production using natural gas.

Within days of the Oct. 2 decision by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, Ormet announced it was curtailing operations of its 272,000-ton-a-year smelter in Hannibal, along the West Virginia border south of Wheeling.

Ormet CEO Mike Tanchuk, the United Steelworkers and their allies fault Kasich — who

names jobs as his highest priority — for not intervening passionately enough on the company’s behalf in Ormet’s case before the PUCO. Kasich’s defenders say Ormet was doomed by huge power requirements and the economic realities of the aluminum industry, not by the governor or regulators. They also question why West Virginia — home to Ormet’s former headquarters and about half the laid off workers — shouldn’t share political responsibility for the job losses.

The closure is a heavy blow to an economically struggling region and a county where state figures show almost a third of workers had been employed in manufacturing. In addition to 901 indefinite layoffs reported, a 2011 analysis estimated Ormet supports 2,100 additional jobs in the region with wages totaling $238 million.

Ormet filed for bankruptcy protection Feb. 25, citing historically low metal prices and “exceedingly high and uncontrollable power costs.” At that time, the company had already been granted power discounts worth some $346 million.

Enrollment dips; colleges adjust COLUMBUS (AP) — Enrollment at Ohio’s public colleges and universities has fallen for the second year in a row amid state and federal efforts emphasizing graduation rates over student totals.

As a result, more schools are laying off employees, freezing travel and reviewing academic programs after enrollment declines and funding reductions, The Columbus Dispatch reported Sunday.

That includes the University of Akron, where trustees agreed last week to cut an additional $12 million from its budget, lay off 18 staff members and not renew one professor’s contract and those of nine others.

The university’s enrollment fell 6 percent this fall.

Shawnee State and

Youngstown State universities have also announced recent cuts.

Statewide enrollment figures show the number of students in college in Ohio rose rapidly after the 2007 financial crisis then dropped almost 6 percent in 2012 and another 2 percent this year, the newspaper reported.

Campus officials cite fewer high school graduates, records numbers of students pushing to graduate before schools moved to semesters, changes in federal financial aid and more Ohioans going straight into the workforce.

“I like to think of it as a leveling off after some really steep growth,” said Karen Rafinski, interim president of the Ohio Association of Community Colleges.

Nation/World Today in History The Associated Press

Today is Monday, Oct. 28, the 301st day of 2013.

There are 64 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 28, 1886, the Statue of Liberty, a gift from the people of France, was dedicated in New York Harbor by President Grover Cleveland.

On this date: In 1636, the General Court of Massachusetts passed a legislative act establishing Harvard College.

In 1776, the Battle of White Plains was fought during the Revolutionary War, resulting in a limited British victory.

In 1858, Rowland Hussey Macy opened his first New York store at Sixth Avenue and 14th Street in Manhattan.

In 1919, Congress enacted the Volstead Act, which provided for enforcement of Prohibition, over President Woodrow Wilson’s veto.

In 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt rededicated the Statue of Liberty on its 50th anniversary.

In 1940, Italy invaded Greece during World War II. In 1958, the Roman Catholic patriarch of Venice, Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, was elected pope; he took the name John XXIII. In 1962, Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev informed the United States that he had ordered the dismantling of missile bases in Cuba.

In 1980, President Jimmy Carter and Republican presidential nominee Ronald Reagan faced off in a nationally broadcast, 90-minute debate in Cleveland.

In 1991, what became known as “The Perfect Storm” began forming hundreds of miles east of Nova Scotia; lost at sea during the storm were the six crew members of the Andrea Gail, a sword-fishing boat from Gloucester, Mass.

In 2001, the families of people killed in the Sept.

11 terrorist attack gathered in New York for a memorial service filled with prayer and song.

In 2002, American diplomat Laurence Foley was assassinated in front of his house in Amman, Jordan, in the first such attack on a U.S. diplomat in decades.

Ten years ago: Firefighters beat back flames on Los Angeles’ doorstep, saving hundreds of homes in the city’s San Fernando Valley from California’s deadliest wildfires in more than a decade. The Senate confirmed Utah Governor Mike Leavitt as head of the Environmental Protection Agency. A Soyuz space capsule carrying an American, a Russian and a Spaniard from the International Space Station landed in Kazakhstan. The seven astronauts who died in the Columbia shuttle disaster were honored with the unveiling of their names carved into the national Space Mirror Memorial.

Squirrel vandalizes bicycle ESTHERVILLE, Iowa (AP) — A squirrel roaming a community college in northern Iowa has become the No. 1 suspect in a vandalized bicycle incident.

Officials at Iowa Lakes Community College in Estherville say the rodent chewed through two tires, a bicycle seat, a headlight and a taillight in the span of two days beginning Wednesday.

The Sioux City Journal reports the bicycle owner, an associate math professor, reported the incidents to Estherville police.

Another professor later came forward with a photo that shows the squirrel attacking the bike.

A school spokeswoman says the photo helps solve the mystery of how the bicycle was vandalized without witnesses seeing a

At least 66 people killed in Iraq SINAN SALAHEDDIN Associated Press

BAGHDAD (AP) — A series of attacks including car bombings in Baghdad, an explosion at a market and a suicide assault in a northern city killed at least 66 people Sunday across Iraq, officials said, the latest in a wave of violence washing over the country.

Coordinated bombings hit Iraq multiple times each month, feeding a spike in bloodshed that has killed more than 5,000 people since April.

The local branch of al-Qaida often takes responsibility for the assaults, although there was no immediate claim for Sunday’s blasts.

Sunday’s attacks were the deadliest single-day series of assaults since Oct. 5, when 75 people were killed in violence.

Police officers said that the bombs in the capital, placed in parked cars and detonated over a half-hour period, tar-

geted commercial areas and parking lots, killing 42 people.

The deadliest blasts struck in the southeastern Nahrwan district, where two car bombs exploded simultaneously, killing seven and wounding 15, authorities said. Two other explosions hit the northern Shaab and southern Abu Dashir neighborhoods, each killing six people, officials said.

Other blasts hit the neighborhoods of Mashtal, Baladiyat and Ur in eastern Baghdad, the southwestern Bayaa district and the northern Sab alBor and Hurriyah districts.

Meanwhile, in the northern city of Mosul, a suicide bomber drove his explosives-laden car into a group of soldiers as they were sealing off a street leading to a bank where troops were receiving salaries, killing 14, a police officer said. At least 30 people were wounded, the officer said. Also in Mosul, police said gunmen shot dead two off-duty soldiers in a

Here’s a tax increase GOP lawmakers support STEPHEN OHLEMACHER Associated Press

WA S H I N GTO N (AP) — Republicans in Congress don’t usually fight for tax increases, especially ones that are part of President Barack Obama’s health care law.

But GOP senators balked when Democrats proposed delaying a new temporary fee on everyone covered by health insurance.

So employers, insurance companies and other health plan sponsors are in line to pay $63 a person next year for everyone who has coverage. The temporary fee covers all workers, spouses and dependents covered by health insurance.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., proposed delaying the fee in recent budget talks with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. McConnell and other Republican senators objected; the fee was left intact.

GOP senators complained the delay was basically a favor for

labor unions, traditional Democratic allies that oppose the new fee.

“It’s beyond ironic that the mantra from the president and the Democrats has been, ‘There can’t be any changes to Obamacare.

After all, it’s the law of the land,’” said Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa. “And then big labor comes along and wants a change and, lo and behold, there’s got to be a change.”

But also opposing the fee are large employers, traditional Republican allies, even though in many cases the fee probably will be passed on to workers.

“It’s a sizable expense.

For some of my employers it’s millions of dollars a year and we don’t get anything from it,” said Gretchen Young, senior vice president for health policy at the ERISA Industry Committee, a group that represents large employers on benefits issues. “It’s definitely not solely a union issue.”

Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., said the proposed delay was meant to balance Republican

demands for other changes to the health law. Republicans in Congress have been attacking the law since it was passed in 2010, and earlier this month, they forced a partial government shutdown over Obama’s refusal to negotiate changes.

Cardin said he didn’t want any changes in the law to be part of the deal for reopening the government and extending the country’s ability to borrow. In the end, the only change was an income verification procedure for people applying for tax credits to help them purchase health insurance.

The temporary fee on people with health insurance is designed to raise $25 billion over the next three years.

The money will provide a cushion for insurers from the initial hard-to-predict costs of covering previously uninsured people with medical problems. Under the law, insurers will be forbidden, effective Jan. 1, 2014, to turn away applicants who are ill.

Marcia Wallace dies, voice of ‘Simpsons’ Krabappel LOS ANGELES (AP) — Marcia Wallace, the voice of scoffing schoolteacher Edna Krabappel on “The Simpsons,” whose wise-cracking characters on “The Bob Newhart Show” and other prime-time hits endeared her to generations of TV viewers, has died.

“Simpsons” executive producer Al Jean called said in a statement Saturday that her “irreplaceable character,” the fourth-grade teacher who contended with Bart Simpson’s constant antics, would be retired from the show. Wallace was 70.

“I was tremendously saddened to learn this morning of the passing of the brilliant and gracious Marcia Wallace.

She was beloved by all at The Simpsons,” Jean said. It’s “a terrible loss for all who had the pleasure of knowing her.”

The statement did not provide a date for her death, or a cause.

The longtime TV actress’ credits ranged from playing a recep-

tionist on “The Bob Newhart Show” to appearances on Candice Bergen’s “Murphy Brown.”

On “ The Simpsons,” Wallace provided the voice for world-weary Edna Krabappel, who smoked cigarettes, made sarcastic comments and finally found love in the arms of Simpson’s neighbor Ned Flanders after fans voted online at the end of season 22 to keep the unlikely couple together.

Wallace’s trademark “Ha!” punctuated Krabappel’s frequent wisecracks, and her character was also known for the catchphrase, “Do what I mean, not what I say.”

Harry Shearer, the voice of Ned Flanders on the show, said Wallace “brought this huge, positive energy” to her work on “The Simpsons.”

“She was just a warm and wonderful person,” Shearer told The Associated Press.

Not happy with work? Wait until you’re 50 or older MATT SEDENSKY Associated Press

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Not happy with your job? Just wait.

A study by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that 9 in 10 workers who are age 50 or older say they are very or somewhat satisfied with their job. Older workers reported satisfaction regardless of gender, race, educational level,

political ideology and income level.

Consider Oscar Martinez.

If Disneyland truly is the happiest place on earth, Martinez may be one of its happiest workers.

Never mind that at 77, the chef already has done a lifetime of work. Or that he must rise around 3 a.m. each day to catch a city bus in time for breakfast crowds at Carnation Café, one of the park’s restaurants. With 57 years under

his apron, he is Disneyland’s longest-serving employee.

“To me, when I work, I’m happy,” said Martinez, who’s not sure he ever wants to retire.

Though research has shown people across age groups are more likely to report job satisfaction than dissatisfaction, older workers consistently have expressed more happiness with their work than younger people have.

The AP-NORC survey found

significant minorities of people reporting unwelcome comments at work about their age, being passed over for raises and promotions, and other negative incidents related to being older. But it was far more common to note the positive impact of their age.

Six in 10 said colleagues turned to them for advice more often and more than 4 in 10 said they felt they were receiving more respect at work.

3 feet of snow in West Virginia, caused 20-foot waves on the distant Great Lakes and registered other records reflecting whopping energy. It meant at least 182 deaths and $65 billion in damage in the United States, the second-costliest weather disaster in American history behind only Katrina, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

“I don’t know if we’ll ever see another storm like this,” said James Franklin, hurricane center chief forecaster.

“The atmosphere can do a lot of weird stuff. I don’t want more like this.”

The question is, How likely is it that there will be more?

Researchers continue to study whether Sandy was a forerunner of similar storms.

“One of the major lessons scientifically is that there

could be these configurations of meteorological events that can combine to be very damaging in ways that are surprising,” said NASA and Columbia University climatologist Cynthia Rosenzweig, who warned in a 2001 report of the kind of flooding that New York endured from Sandy. She said other cities around the world have learned from New York’s Sandy experience and are better preparing for flooding worsened by climate change and sea level.

A September study by NOAA found that sea level rise triggered by global warming is making Sandytype flooding more likely. For example, the flooding that swamped Sandy Hook, N.J., last year would have been considered a once-in-435-year event in 1950, but it is now a once-in-295-year event. By

2100, it could become a oncein-20-year event, the study said.

In the past century, sea level in the New York region has risen about a foot, two-thirds of it caused by man-made climate change, said Princeton’s Oppenheimer.

The result? Fifty thousand people suffered flooding from Sandy that wouldn’t have happened if not for global warming, he said.

Sandy wasn’t always a big bully. For several days, this looked like a “kind of boring” hurricane, said NOAA meteorologist Ian Sears, who flew into the storm three times in a hurricane hunter airplane.

Then came Friday night, nearly three days before landfall in New Jersey, when the cold front chugging west hooked up with the tropical system steaming north.

Sandy From page 1 In the year since Sandy blew through the East Coast, meteorologists have pored over forecasts, satellite photos, computer models, and even the physical damage to try to get a sense of what made Sandy the demon it was.

Put simply, what made the superstorm dangerous and freaky in more than a dozen different ways was a meteorological trade in: The hurricane lost some oomph in winds in return for enormous size. And just like Katrina seven years earlier, Sandy caused so much havoc because of its record girth, National Hurricane Center Director Rick Knabb said, adding: “Smaller versions of those same storms would not have had the same scope of disasters.”

Sandy’s breadth pushed much more water into New Jersey and New York, dropped

Should shoppers ZIP up?

Dear Readers: How many times have you gone shopping and, as you pay for the purchases, been asked for your ZIP code?

Did you ever wonder why the retailers are asking you for this information?

Do you have to give it to them? Not really, unless using a credit card where the issuer requests a ZIP code for security purposes.

It’s all about marketing and getting more information about you.

Asking the ZIP code gives a retailer easy access to your address, which helps it mail you advertisements, coupons and other junk mail from that store and maybe others if the retailer “shares” or sells its data.

Forestry Field Day deemed a success Lynda Adams Shelby Soil and Water Conservation District Education Coordinator A spectacular day in and around the woods and pond of Forest and Ruth Pence was enjoyed by hundreds of guests at Forestry Field Day sponsored recently by the Shelby Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD). Financial support for this popular event was provided by; B & B Ag-Vantages, Inc., Shelby County Pork Producers and the Top of Ohio RC&D. The District wishes to thank Forest and Ruth Pence for sharing their beautiful piece of Shelby County for Forestry Day. We also wish to thank our generous sponsors whose contributions made this free event possible.

What would Forestry Field Day be without being able to walk through the woods with the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Forestry, Service Forester, Casey Burdic? Casey spoke on invasive insects and their management, timber harvesting and tree health. Guests had the opportunity to ask specific questions and

there was also an opportunity to learn some simple tree identification.

The very popular sawmill, owned and operated by Keith and Arlene Marshall from Greenville, found many people watching ash logs being cut into boards that will be used by the City of Sidney in the parks for boardwalks, etc.

Don and Catherine Steinke from Wapakoneta shared their wealth of knowledge about honey bees and the benefits of honey products, along with having a display of products available for purchase.

The Shelby County Woodcarvers had an amazing display of items they had carefully hand carved. Two large tables were covered with these beautifully crafted local pieces. The Shelby County Master Gardeners were on hand to answer both gardening questions and questions about the Master Gardener program.

The day was enhanced by music provided throughout the day by Hits 105.5. Thank you Joe Laber and Many people enjoyed seeing the rehabilitated raptors at Forestry

Shelby SWCD Board members and their spouses spent the day grilling hot dogs and serving apples and drinks to the hungry guests. Board members and spouses are as John and Sharon Lenhart, Judy and Bill Frilling, Bill and Janice Maxson, Lenny and Lou Ann Albers and Tom Seger.

The children’s area was a constant flurry of activity. The Houston FFA members did an outstanding job of heading up the children’s nature craft, face painting, hand crank apple peeling and hand crank corn shelling. These amazing FFA young adults showed up early and stayed late to assist us with not only the activities but also set up and tear down for the event. Shelby SWCD board members and staff members would like to say a big thank you to the Houston FFA members.

Of course Forestry Day just wouldn’t be complete without a visit from the ever famous Smokey Bear.

Smokey had goodie bags for the children that contained coloring pages, pencils, and other Smokey themed items. Another exceptionally popular event was the candy scramble, provided courtesy of Denny ZIegenbush of Fort Loramie.

We are already planning for Forestry Field Day 2014. Please mark your calendars for the third Sunday in October and plan to join us for this FREE, fun, family day in the woods!

Local farmer has new food option CONTINENTAL — Hybrid cars, iPads and drones are just a few technologies developed to revolutionize various industries. Ohio farmers have adopted the same approach to innovation in their fields with high oleic soybeans.

One example is Ohio farmer Dan Heitzman. He planted this new type of soybeans this year to provide benefits to the food industry, as well as other soybean customers.

“It feels great to be on the cutting edge of innovation for the U.S. soybean industry,” said Heitzman. “We are promoting the use our soybean oil and developing new uses for it, as well.”

From restaurants to food manufacturers and grocery stores, soybean oil is the most commonly used vegetable oil in the United States. But, the oil from the Heitzman’s new soybeans will give those same restaurants and food manufacturers an improved oil with better functionality that avoids trans fats and contains less saturated fats. For the product to be available in local stores and appear on food labels, farmers like Heitzman need to take advantage of the opportunity to grow these cutting edge varieties.

“As farmers, it is our responsibility to grow a product that is better for end-users and for our neighbors,” said Heitzman.

Ohio is one of few states cho-

sen to roll out this innovation, which comes with the same proven genetics and agronomic packages farmers have come to expect. Seed companies developed high oleic soybeans during the last decade to ensure they perform comparably with farmers’ on-farm averages. And Heitzman is taking the opportunity to be on the cutting edge of this technology.

“These high oleic varieties perform comparably with my onfarm average,” said Heitzman.

“They are also comparable with the pest and disease packages my other varieties come in.”

Growing a product with advantages for customers will grow demand for U.S. soybeans and increase farmers’ profit potential. High oleic soybean oil even has the potential to open up new industrial markets for farmers, with uses such as motor oils. Heitzman is growing a product that will meet customer needs and grow not only his business, but also the profitability of the entire industry.

“I like growing these new soybeans,” said Heitzman. “It’s good for me as a farmer and for the industry to open up new potential markets.”

It takes food companies two years to incorporate a new ingredient into their products, so consumers may not see the results right away. But Ohio farmers can begin filling the demand now. Farmers who are

interested in joining Heitzman in this innovation should contact their local seed or processor representative today to find out about marketing contracts suitable for their individual operations. Or, visit www.

SoyInnovation.com for contact information for elevators and processors ready to collect and contract high oleic soybeans.

The 69 farmer-directors of USB oversee the investments of the soy checkoff to maximize profit opportunities for all U.S. soybean farmers. These volunteers invest and leverage checkoff funds to increase the value of U.S. soy meal and oil, to ensure U.S. soybean farmers and their customers have the freedom and infrastructure to operate, and to meet the needs of U.S. soy’s customers. As stipulated in the federal Soybean Promotion, Research and Consumer Information Act, the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has oversight responsibilities for USB and the soy checkoff.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is an excellent day to review financial matters, especially regarding shared property, taxes, debt, inheritances and insurance. You're in the zone, and you won't miss a thing.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Discussions with partners and close friends will be sober and serious today. Although communication might not flow easily, discussions about how to share expenses and responsibilities will be productive.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You can accomplish a lot at work today because you're mentally prepared to get the job done. Today, you will burn through things in a steady, busy way.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Discussions about professional sports, the entertainment world, show business, the hospitality industry and the care and education of children will be serious today. People want doable results.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Family discussions will address home repairs today and, possibly, how to repair a rift in the family. Someone older has wise advice to contribute.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your critical faculties are sharp today. If you look at something, your immediate thought will be, "What's wrong with this picture?" However, out of courtesy, you might hesitate to expose problems.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You will be conservative about financial matters today, which is a good thing. You want to know where the money went, and how much more it will cost to do something.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Refrain from being critical of others today, even if you have a critical outlook. It's just what it is. You will be careful, because you don't want to make a mistake.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a fabulous day for research of any kind. You won't stop until you find what you're looking for; in the process, you will be careful and not overlook anything.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Talk to people who are older and more experienced today, because you can benefit from their experience and advice. It never hurts to at least listen.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Discussions with authority figures might feel stilted. Either you feel critical of them, or vice versa. Nevertheless, you also might get excellent advice from someone.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You'll find it easy to buckle down and study or learn anything. It's a good day to finish a school paper or thesis or to tackle legal papers. Just do it.

YOU BORN TODAY You're analytical, organized and efficient. In fact, you constantly look for ways to improve doing something. Society, politics and how others negotiate with power intrigue you. You also are persuasive and charming. Many of you become experts in your field. This year something you've been involved with for nine years will end or diminish in order to make room for something new.

Tax default at record high BOTKINS — Botkins Village Council members discussed what to do about the increase in the village’s delinquent income taxes, a street resurfacing project, and future school traffic during their recent meeting.

Village Solicitor Stan Evans told council that he has never seen the kind of increase in delinquent income taxes being experienced by the village at this time. Evans said usually the village will have five to six residents with delinquent income taxes, but this year, it is at an all-time high of 37 residents with delinquent income taxes.

Village Administrator Jesse Kent said Joy Bond from the city of St. Marys handles the village’s income taxes. All 37 residents with delinquent taxes have been subpoenaed.

The village can take legal action in small claims court against the residents at a cost of approximately $100 per claim, which would cost the village about $3,700. The village is owed $21,568.73 in back taxes.

Evans said he has received the names of an additional six residents with delinquent taxes. Those individuals have criminal actions for not filing taxes.

Council member Chris Brown asked if the village can garnish court costs. Evans responded that the village can recoup court costs and attorney fees. Evans charges the village slightly over $700 in fees for preparing information on the cases.

Council agreed that Evans should proceed with legal action to collect the money.

Councilman Steve Heuker said he would like to know if the village has spent more over the years to collect the delinquent taxes then it gets in payment of the back taxes.

Heuker and Mayor Steve Woodruff asked about ways to find out if collections are effective in resolving delinquent tax issues.

Kent told council members that the bid opening was held for the resurfacing project on South Main Street. There was only one bid. Barrett Paving Materials Inc. submitted a bid of $157,760.35.

Kent noted that the bid came in a little lower than anticipated. The project will run on South Main Street at State Street to Lock Two Road.

The project will involve mill and fill and replacing to the same elevation. Kent said the project will involve one day of grinding and two days of paving. There will be approximately 40 truckloads of grindings. Kent said he will work with Woodruff to determine where the grindings will go, with some going to the park and others to the water tower.

The village will be having a bump removed from in front of Steinke’s for the project.

Woodruff asked about traffic flow during the project.

Kent told him that when he hears about the timing of the project, he will notify council by email. Heuker said he wanted to avoid problems

with property owners. Kent said he will talk with Steinke’s about expectations before the project begins.

Kent gave council members a handout on financing the resurfacing project. Council member Nick Greve asked about the financing of the lift station and Kent said that money is in the sewer fund.

Greve asked about the Bureau of Motor Vehicles funds and it was noted that a $5 fee is held for the village with each license until the village requests the money. There is approximately $40,000 in that fund for the project.

Council declared an emergency and suspended the readings for an ordinance approving Barrett’s bid.

Council declared an emergency and suspended the readings for an ordinance and approved the resurfacing project.

Woodruff discussed future school traffic with council members and noted that he would suggest that all buses use the Walnut Street entrance to go in and out because of the radius of the road.

Council member Josh Meyer asked if it would wear down the road and Woodruff said it will, but will wear on one road and one intersection.

Woodruff said he went to the intersection to check visibility and Greve asked how they will park school buses.

Woodruff said they will park the buses in the current bus parking lot during the day.

Heuker asked about problems with the blacktop at the stop signs on Walnut Street and suggested looking at illuminating the two stop signs. Following a discussion, Woodruff will try and get on the Botkins Board of Education’s agenda for the November meeting. Council members were asked to think about bus routes.

Kent told council members he received a letter from Time Warner Cable stating that it is going to all digital and is informing the village that those residents who still have analog television will have to purchase a box to be able to see the channels.

Kent reminded council members that they had approved him attending an economic development event in California, which was canceled. The ticket purchased at the time of the plans is going to expire soon. Kent has been told about another event in Hackensack, N.J. He will send council members an email about that event.

Kent told council members that he did not receive anything about animal nuisances from Lance Mihm of the Wapakoneta Daily News.

Mihm was going to send him a copy of Waynesfield’s ordinance. Mihm has left the Wapakoneta Daily News and may have forgotten to send the information. Woodruff said he would like to look at ordinances about animal nuisances and Kent will keep researching.

Russia girls win regional championship TROY — Junior Emily Borchers ran away with the individual title, leading the Russia Lady Raiders to the Division III Regional cross country championship Saturday at Troy.

Borchers finished nearly 20 seconds ahead of her nearest competitor, running a 19:09.5, and Russia finished with 89 points, five better than Cincinnati Summit Country Day. “When we ran against Summit at Tiffin, they had two new runners,” Russia coach Doug Foster said. “Their one and three runners played soccer last year. They beat us by 30 and kind of surprised us. But, I didn’t feel like we ran well that day. Their number one (Ellie Adams) beat Emily (Borchers), but I really felt like Emily was the better runner.”

And the Raiders came in to Saturday intent on proving it — and the wild celebration when the results were announced was satisfaction.

“At Russia, cross country is a big-time sport.”

Foster said. “These kids work so hard. They run all summer and that’s why they are able to accomplish what they do.”

Just as impressive was the finish of Lauren Heaton. Fighting a bronchial infection made worse by the cold weather, Heaton was 12th at two-mile mark. She passed six girls down the stretch to move up to sixth in 19:46.17. That became even bigger when Russia’s victory margin was five points 89-94. ‪The rest of the Lady Raider runners included Molly Kearns in 27th, Kirstin Voisard 32nd, Karissa Voisard 33rd,

Grilliot 18th, Brooke Pothast 42nd, Lexi Fliehman 44th, Chloe Warvel 47th, Hannah Wenig 56th and Camille Watren 95th.

Tiffin Regional TIFFIN — The Minster girls ran in the Tiffin Regional Saturday and qualified as a team to the state meet once again, finishing third behind Liberty Center and Coldwater.

Morgan Pohl led the Lady Wildcats in fifth, Kaci Bornhorst was ninth, Ali Borgerding 12th, Lisa Barlage 20th and Olivia Enneking 26th. Julia Slonkosky was 30th and Gabrielle Barga 32nd.

New Knoxville’s Cassie Boyle was seventh to qualify as an individual.

BOYS Troy Regional TROY — The Anna boys took second and Russia third in the D-III race at Troy Saturday, qualifyng both to the state meet.

Cavs clinch share of NWCC crown with 60-0 win Ken Barhorst Civitas Media

When you look at the final score – 60-0 – it’s hard to believe that the winning team needed a wakeup call.

But the Lehman Cavaliers did Saturday night at Sidney Memorial Stadium, said their coach, Dick Roll, after the lopsided win.

The Cavaliers, for all their success this season, are notoriously slow starters, and it happened again against outmatched Waynesfield-Goshen in Northwest Central Conference football action.

After forcing a punt on Waynesfield’s first series, the Cavaliers went four-and-out on their first possession, losing a yard when going for it on fourth-andthree at their own 39.

The defense again forced a threeand-out, and that’s when Greg Spearman sounded the wakeup call. He gathered in a punt at his own 17, headed right, appeared to be hemmed in at the sideline, but broke free and sped 83 yards for a 6-0 lead with 9:43 remaining in the opening quarter.

That opened the flood gates, and the Cavaliers went on to manhandle the Tigers and clinch no worse than a share of the NWCC championship. They can wrap up an outright crown Friday at Upper Scioto Valley in the regular-season finale, then turn their attention to postseason play.

“We were up big after one quarter, but we didn’t play well,” said Roll after the game. “The punt return was big, and we caught a

break on the bad snap. And the kids finally turned it on. But we needed to wake up. We don’t play well early, and we have no answer for it.”

The bad snap Roll referred to came with punter Nick Rourke backed up near his own endzone.

It sailed over his head and out of the endzone for an apparent safety for the Tigers. But there was laundry on the field, and the call was a strange one – roughing the center on the snap. The penalty moved the ball out to the 22-yard line, and after a pass for no gain, Rourke kept the ball around left end and was off to the races 78 yards away Luke Gronneberg|Sidney Daily News for a 13-0 lead.

Lehman, JC, Loramie win district VB titles 21st consecutive year for Lehman spikers

‪TROY — Lehman Catholic volleyball senior Ellie Cain admitted the thought of playing on “that team” went through her mind for just a second.‬ ‪That would be the first Lehman volleyball team in 21 years to not win a district title.‬ ‪And when the Lady Cavaliers dropped the first two sets to Catholic Central in Troy D-IV district final Saturday night, it was more than just a passing thought to fellow senior Erica Paulus.‬ ‪”I thought about it a lot and it was not sitting well with me,” Paulus said. “I was not going to be on ‘that team’. The one that ended the 21-year streak.”‬ ‪As is turned out, a monumental comeback

by Lehman against a Lady Irish team that had dropped just one match all year kept the streak intact.‬

‪Lehman, 18-8, rallied for a 19-25, 16-25, 25-15, 25-16, 15-10 win and will play Fort Loramie in a Tipp City regional semifinal at approximately 7:30 p.m. Thursday night.‬ ‪Lehman coach Greg Snipes laughed when told about Paulus’ comments.‬ ‪”She probably never would have heard the end of it from her sisters if we had lost,” Snipes said.‬ After rallying back to even the match at two sets apiece, The Lady Cavs got off to a fast start in the fifth game. After an Olivia Slagle block tied it at 1-1, she served five straight points. But just as quickly, the Irish came back totie it at 7-7.

Erica Paulus then came up with a kill and a service winner to make it 9-7, and after two kills by freshman Sidney Chapman made it 12-10, three straight hitting errors by Springfield

ended it. ‪Slagle had a big night with 13 kills and eight blocks, while Cain dished out 45 assists.‬ ‪Chambers had 11 kills, while Paulus had 13 kills and 10 digs.‬ ‪Michelle Duritsch had nine kills and Ava Schmitz added eight digs for the defense.‬ Loramie cruises In the middle game Saturday, Fort Loramie had no trouble with Fayetteville, winning 25-6, 25-13, 25-18.

“I’m very happy for my seniors,” said coach John Rodgers. “They now have four league titles and four district titles.”

Highlighting the match for Loramie was senior Darian Rose, who became the all-time leaders in aces in a single season. she had three to runner season total to 60, breaking the mark

Total domination No. 4 Buckeyes thrash Penn State 63-14 JIM NAVEAU

jnaveau@limanews.com

COLUMBUS — Ask and you shall receive.

Receive and pass and run and sack and intercept and dominate.

No. 4 Ohio State (8-0, 4-0 Big Ten) got the game it has been looking for all season when it beat Penn State 63-14 on Saturday night at Ohio Stadium.

Almost all the questions that have been asked over and over again about the Buckeyes, even though they had run off seven straight wins to start the season, were answered.

For one night, at least.

Braxton Miller completed 18 of 24 passes for 252 yards and three touchdowns and ran for two more scores and Carlos Hyde rushed for 147 yards on 16 carries and two touchdowns to lead the Buckeyes to their 20th straight win with Urban Meyer as coach.

Ohio State’s offense rolled up 686 yards, 408 of it on the ground. Its defense sacked Penn State quarterback Christian Hackenberg four times and intercepted two passes.

The domination was total.

OSU ended up punishing Penn State almost as hard as the NCAA did.

“You can’t predict how it’s going to turn out. We had a hard week of preparation and it turned out well,” Miller said.

“We’ve got to keep our foot on the pedal. We can’t overlook any opponent,” he said.

Even with a 7-0 record, there had been questions about OSU’s ability to defend the pass.

There were questions about whether its youthful defensive line could get pressure on good quarterbacks.

There were questions about why the Buckeyes kept winning close games and their seeming inability to dominate an opponent.

Fre s h m a n phenom Hackenberg was supposed to be a quarterback who would be a thorn in the side of OSU’s defense. Instead, he was on the sideline 6 ½ minutes into the second half, watching his backup Tyler Ferguson play with Ohio State up 49-7.

Think Ohio State wasn’t serious about dominating this game? Think it didn’t want to

win big?

With a 49-7 lead, it lined up in a formation that had Kenny Guiton at quarterback and Miller at wide receiver and scored on a 2-yard run by Guiton.

With a 56-7 lead, it challenged the officials’ spot of the football that would have given Penn State a first down and won the challenge.

Until Saturday, the most points Ohio State had ever scored against Penn State was 45 in a 45-6 win in 2000.

The Buckeyes’ 63 points was the most given up by a Penn State football team since Duquesne scored 64 points in 1899.

Ohio State scored on six of its seven possessions in the first half – on drives of 75 yards, 88 yards, 52 yards, 60 yards, 45 yards and 84 yards to take a 42-7 lead after two quarters.

That 84-yard drive in the final minute of the first half, which ended with a 25-yard scoring throw from Miller to wide receiver Corey Brown, took only 52 seconds and delivered a message. Two of them, actually.

Cavs

Jason Alig|Sidney Daily News

Ohio State’s Corey Brown pulls in an interception in the end zone against Penn State Saturday.

From page 13 three touchdown catches in the game, picked off a pass on Lehman’s next series and Lehman drove 45 yards in 10 plays, with Spearman going in from a yard out to make it 20-0.

Westerheide then caught the first of his TD passes, a 23-yarder, with :27 left in the first quarter to make it 27-0 after one.

Rourke then hit Clay Selsor with a short pass that Selsor turned into a 61-yard touchdown on

Lehman’s first possession of the second quarter, and three minutes later he hit Westerheide for a 40-yard scoring strike down the middle of the field to make it 41-0 with 7:00 left before half. That’s how the score stood at the break.

When the teams came out for the third quarter, it took Rourke just two plays to find the endzone again, running for 52 yards down to the eight, and keeping it on the next

play for the score with 11:17 left in the quarter.

Westerheide’s final score came on a 16-yard toss from Rourke with 2:49 left and capped an 11-play drive that included four penalties, three on the Cavs.

When the smoke had cleared, the Cavaliers had put up some incredible numbers. They finished with nearly 600 yards in total offense, including 334 on the ground. Rourke

was the top rusher, going for 177 yards on just nine carries. He also threw for 202 yards.

On the other side of the ball, the Lehman defense held Waynesfield to just 17 yards in total offense. John Husa, who had a good game running the ball, was in the Waynesfield backfield all night long.

“John played probably his best game of the year,” said Roll. “We’ve changed

our defense, and he’s really feeling confident right now.”

Dalton throws 5 TDs, Bengals drub Jets

CINCINNATI (AP) — Andy Dalton and Marvin Jones did whatever they wanted against the Jets’ shocked defense.

Dalton threw a career-high five touchdown passes — four of them to Jones — as the Cincinnati Bengals drubbed the New York Jets 49-9 on Sunday, their first dominant performance of a promising season.

The third-year quarterback and second-year receiver went into the club’s record books as its top touchdown combination. Jones set a Bengals record for touchdown receptions, scoring on catches of 9, 6, 17 and 6 yards.

Dalton’s five touchdown passes gave him 11 in his last three games, his best such span. He’s the first quarterback to throw for five TDs against the Jets since Dan Marino in 1988.

The Bengals (6-2) won their fourth in a row and padded their AFC North lead by taking advantage of New York’s step-slow pass defense and its rookie quarterback, who had his worst day yet. Geno Smith threw two interceptions that were returned for touchdowns before heading to the bench early in the fourth quarter.

It was Cincinnati’s most lopsided victory during coach Marvin Lewis’ 11 seasons. The Bengals are 2½ games ahead of second-place Baltimore, which had its bye week.

New York (4-4) couldn’t break its pattern of win-one, lose-one. The Jets took their most lopsided loss since a 45-3 loss to New England in 2010.

It slipped away fast.

The Bengals got touchdowns on their first two possessions while the Jets managed only 1 net yard in the first quarter — their fewest for a quarter since 2009.

The Bengals figured they could take advantage of New York’s man-to-man coverage by throwing deep. Dalton’s line gave him plenty of time and he was on target most of the time, setting up a lot of big plays.

The biggest came from Jones, a fifthround draft pick with a lot of speed. In his breakout game, he showed a good pair of hands and a few nifty moves, too. His 30-yard catch set up Dalton’s 4-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jermaine Gresham, who was uncovered in the back of the end zone.

A.J. Green also had two catches

that went for more than 50 yards each as Dalton showed he can complete the long throw — one of his biggest deficiencies in his first two seasons.

Dalton finished 19 of 30 for 325 yards with an interception and a sack.

Smith showed he’s still got an awful lot to learn. He was 20 of 30 for 159 yards with three sacks.

Down 28-6 coming out of halftime, Smith made two more glaring mistakes. Chris Crocker returned his first pass of the second half 32 yards for a touchdown. Early in the fourth quarter, Adam “Pacman” Jones ran another back 40 yards for a score, sidestepping the diving Smith to reach the end David Kohl|AP zone.

New England’s Logan Ryan ran one back 79 yards for a score during the Jets’ 30-27 overtime victory last week.

“I didn’t think Bethany’s record would ever be broken,” Rodgers said.

The Lady Redskins, 22-4, will take on Lehman in the regional semifinals Thursday at Tipp City at 7:30, and will be trying to even the score with the Lady Cavs. Lehman beat Loramie in five sets during the regular season.

Ashley Pleiman had nine kills to lead Loramie on Saturday, Rose and Kelly Turner added seven apiece, Renae Meyer finished with five and Colleen Poeppelman had four.

Rose also added eight digs and Janell Hoying had 13. Julie Hoying had 32 assists.

JC tops Russia TROY — In a battle of County rivals, Jackson

Center advanced to the regional tournament by defeating the Russia Lady Raiders in four games Saturday in a district final.

Jackson won 25-21, 25-19, 19-25, 25-10 to earn a spot opposite defending state champion and top-ranked Marion Local Thursday night at Tipp City at 6 p.m.

The Lady Tigers take a 10-6 record into that game. Russia bows out with an 18-8 mark.

Jackson fell behind in the first game, but rallied to tie the game at 20-20.

The Lady Tigers then closed it out with five of the next six points.

Then in the second game, the Lady Tigers rolled to a 15-4 lead before Russia began chipping away. The Lady

Raiders got within 19-16, but Jackson closed the game on a 6-1 run,.

Russia led 15-9 and 18-9 in the third game, with Kylie Wilson having three kills and a tip in the first six points. Jackson rallied, but Russia held on for the win.

In the final game, however, Jackson Center jumped out 12-4 and never looked back.

“You can’t get in a hole like that,” said Russia coach Todd Wion. That’s tough against a team like Jackson Center.”

The Lady Tigers went to 20-6 on the year with the win.

“It’s tough to play a County school because it’s the third time. And in this case, we split during the season,” said Jackson coach Kim Metz. “But

at the same time, it’s a rival and the motivation is there. I was extremely proud of the kids the way they pulled together, especially in that second game.”

Haley Elchert had 15 kills and eight digs to lead Jackson, and Pauline Meyer had 13 kills and 11 digs. Cassie Meyer had a strong game, with nine kills, six digs and six aces, and Erin Metz added six kills. Jayel Frye had 27 assists and Kamryn Elchert had 16 assists and 11 digs. Courtney Zimpfer and Payton Esser both added six digs.

For Russia, Wilson finished with 15 kills and Camille Puthoff five.

Puthoff had 10 digs, Maggie Kearns 11 digs and Wilson eight. Taylor Daniel had 27 assists and eight digs.
