The Northern Miami Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross is accepting donations to help victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the central Philippines.

“Our thoughts are with all of those affected by this terrible natural disaster and the volunteers who are helping,” said R. Scott Miller, executive director of the Northern Miami Valley Chapter.

“The Red Cross is assisting with Typhoon Haiyan relief in a number of ways.”

The American Red Cross is activating its family tracing services through the Restoring Family Links Program. The Red Cross is able to accept inquiries for clients concerned about their loved ones based on the following

criteria: • For people living in the affected areas who were in regular contact with their relatives in the United States before the disaster occurred.

• For family members who are not U.S. citizens.

Inquiries concerning U.S. citizens should be referred to the U.S. Department of State, Office of Overseas Citizens Services, at 888-407-4747.

Contact International Services Coordinator Dyah Miller at dyah. miller@redcross.org to start the process of inquiry.

The American Red Cross is also beginning to deploy specialists to assist in the assessment and relief efforts. On Sunday, a disas-

ter volunteer from the Greater Cincinnati-Dayton Region was deployed to the Philippines to assist in restoration of telecommunication systems.

The American Red Cross is currently accepting donations to support Typhoon Haiyan relief efforts in the Philippines. Make donations online at Typhoon Appeal on www.redcross.org or 1-800-REDCROSS. People can also send or drop off a check at the Northern Miami Valley Chapter, 1314 Barnhart Road, Troy, OH 45373 or 207 W. Water St., Sidney, OH 45365. For further information, call 937-332-1414.

measure, he would support that as chief.”

Scheu said Cundiff’s comments about Lenhart and himself going to visit Shelby County and Miami County schools and the lack of support from those schools for first responder teams is not accurate.

Russia has an armed presence and reportedly other Shelby County schools are considering first responder teams, he said.

Scheu noted that Balling participated in a retreat prior to the beginning of school to discuss the first responder teams, along with himself, Lenhart, the school security officers, principals and highranking police and sheriff’s officials.

At that time, Scheu said, Balling “expressed his unwavering support” for the SCS plan. “He (Balling) had every opportunity to express his displeasure, but instead was quite supportive. All of a sudden, three days before school began, he called me in his office and gave me a threepage letter outlining why he did not support the plan,” Scheu said.

“We’ve had training and we’re not taking this lightly,” Scheu said, noting that the first responder teams are “an added layer of security and safety for our students and teachers.

We’re not taking the place of the police. We’re there at the start of an active shooter.”

Balling said Thursday’s meeting “did allow the opportunity to provide information on both sides. The principals were advised that if they have any questions on anything that we handle, they are free to give us a call.”

Balling has not changed his opposition to first responder teams in Sidney City Schools, however, and said he “never supported the program the way … it was designed.

Chief Gessler advised me that he also disagreed with it. However, with his pending retirement, he did not want to be involved in it.”

Balling said he has confirmed through Gessler’s emails that “the

Sidney Police Department was never involved” in the program.

“I continue to believe there needs to be more thought and training involved prior to implementing it or proceeding with it,” Balling said of the first responder program. “I believe that it would be in the best interests of all if time was given for the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, the Ohio Chiefs of Police Association, the Buckeye Sheriff’s Association and leaders in this area to work on a comprehensive plan that is safe for all students, teachers and all parties involved.”

“I believe that both Superintendent Scheu and I care strongly for the kids in this community and that we both want to do what we believe is right. I commend them for placing the school security officers in the schools,” Balling said, noting he is working with Cundiff on whether to accept the schools’ job description for the SRO. Balling said he talked to Sheriff John Lenhart Thursday and is worried that these issues could lead to problems between himself and the Sheriff’s Office. He did not elaborate on their discussion.

Cundiff has raised concern that the Shelby County Commissioners may not realize the liability they are facing as a result of the Sheriff’s Office being involved with the first responder teams in the schools.

County Commissioner Julie Ehemann said the board has discussed the liability issue and feel the ultimate responsibility lies with the Sheriff’s Office and the county.

She said the commissioners support the first responder teams.

Dan Tierney, spokesman for Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine’s office, released a statement saying that DeWine does support the idea of arming a well-trained individual in the schools, but that it is up to each school board “to weigh the options with the community and decide what is best for them.”

The Sidney Planning Commission will consider a request to shift a lot line when it meets Monday at 7:30 p.m. in City Council chambers.

Choice One Engineering, on behalf of Bensar Properties, is requesting the replat of two lots to create two new lots at 1410-1440 N. Vandemark Road and 1250-1280 N. Vandemark Road, south of Russell Road, in an I-2, general industrial district. The purpose of this replat is to shift the shared side lot line to allow for construction of new parking facilities.

From page 1 team and help lead them, Scheu said.

The superintendent said if the police SRO cannot fulfill that role, the schools will get an SRO from the Sheriff’s Office or elsewhere.

“We are intent on having an armed and uniformed officer at Sidney High School,” Scheu said. Balling is expected to notify Scheu of his decision by Dec. 1.

In addition, Scheu said the men “discussed our differences of opinion on the first responder team and we didn’t reach any conclusion.

The school district has not changed our position and the chief has not changed his opinion. He (Balling) is against any involvement with first responder teams.”

“I shared that I was not real happy that he (Balling) went to City Council. I said there were some things that were printed in the paper that I did not agree with,” Scheu said.

Among issues is a statement by Balling that it would take two minutes for Sidney Police to respond to an active-shooter situation. Scheu said he feels that is too long. “Chief Balling said there can be 10 officers there in two minutes time. In two minutes time, there can be 17 people shot or killed during that time,” Scheu said.

Scheu said he bases that information on the fact that research has shown that during recent school and theater shootings, every seven seconds a person is shot or killed when someone begins shooting.

Scheu wanted to make clear to the public that former Sidney Police Chief Kevin Gessler was part of the original security team. He noted that Gessler, Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart, SCS board members and administrators, “met as early as December 2012, and in March of 2013 those measures were approved by the school board, including a first responder team. Chief Gessler agreed with all the measures except the first responder team, but he said if the school board approved the

New city division tackles sewer inflow/infiltration Kathy Leese

Mike Ullery | Daily Call

Crews from the Ohio Department of Transportation remove the bodies of horses that died after being struck by vehicles along State Route 41 east of Covington early Friday morning.

Horses running loose cause traffic accidents 6 animals die; no motorists seriously injured Staff report

COVINGTON — Horses that escaped from a farm on Sugar Grove Road, south of Covington, wreaked havoc around the community early Friday morning, causing several traffic crashes that ended with six animals dead.

Reports of collisions between cars and horses began around 3:30 a.m. with crashes on State Route 41 near east of Covington claiming the lives of three of the horses. Three more died on U.S. Route 36 at the west edge of the village.

Miami County sheriff’s deputies, motorists and volunteers rounded up the remaining horses,

several of which were injured, over the next several hours.

A total of 40 horses, boarded by the Judson Thompson family on Sugar Grove Road, reportedly escaped. The search was hampered by darkness. All animals were captured or accounted for by 9 a.m.

The Ohio Department of Transportation and local refuse companies removed the carcasses from roadways shortly after daybreak.

Deputies are investigating how the animals managed to escape.

None of the motorists involved in the crashes suffered serious injury.

Sidney City Council members heard an update on the inflow and infiltration system that is part of the new Inflow and Infiltration Division for the city during their meeting Monday evening.

Gary Clough, assistant city manager and public works director, and Dave Wood, underground utilities superintendent, gave a presentation on the Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) Division. The goal of the new division is the reduce the amount of I&I that requires treatment at the wastewater treatment plant The I&I Division finished hiring employees and acquired the equipment necessary for the new division as of summer 2013.

Noting that there are 122 miles of sewer lining the city of Sidney, Wood said Ohio Avenue has one of the oldest sewer lines in Sidney, “over 100 years old.”

Clough and Wood gave a Power Point presentation about I&I reduction and the new program for council members. I&I reduction will lower the effect of rain on the wastewater plant and will reduce the number and frequency of sanitary sewer overflows, reduce the number of sewer backups in basements, and maximize the capacity of the sewer collection system and the plant.

Among the activities of the I&I are to inspect the city’s sewer collection system, perform flow monitoring of the city’s sewer system to identify and prioritize where I&I is happening, perform rehabilitation of the city’s sewers, implement a private property I&I reduction program, and establish an I&I division.

The I&I Division has ordered equipment, including a CCTV and grout truck that cost $568,958. The truck is in service. Other equipment that has been ordered include a sewer jet/vac truck that arrived on Nov. 7 and cost $399,957; staff

a five-person I&I department.

The I&I Division has sewer projects, including upgrading the electrical and control panels for the lift stations at a cost of $200,000 and bid out emergency generators for three pump stations pending approval of specifications at a cost of $135,000. The total project cost is $335,000.

Council members were told that so far, the I&I Division has reached an agreement with 45 homeowners for transfer sewer laterals, including 22 homeowners with the Wapakoneta Avenue reconstruction; replaced seven broken pipes and/or roots; bid for Hall Street and Ridgeway sewer lining at a cost of $33,219; will hold grout training from Nov. 12-15 and Nov. 18-22; obtained CityWorks software for asset management and work orders at a cost of $35,000; and obtained data storage equipment for CCTV video and storage at a cost of $25,000.

There are a number of 2014 projects planned, including the I&I reduction program at a cost of $175,000; lift station upgrades at a cost of $200,000; Ohio Avenue sewer replacement and lining at a cost of $500,000; televise and grout southwest sewer interceptor, $160,000; I&I service van, $57,000; implement private property I&I program; and Industrial Drive sewer replacement, $430,200.

Future plans for the I&I Division are to pursue the private property I&I program to get 400 homes in compliance annually; Port Jefferson Road reconstruction and replace sewer line; use new CCTV and grout truck to test and grout 15,000 to 20,000 feet of mainline sewers annually; continue to perform flow readings in sewer sheds to help with I&I programs; and continue the lateral transfer program for those in the community who want to participate.

Out of the Blue

Not such a bad speech HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — It took 150 years, but a Pennsylvania newspaper said Thursday it should have recognized the greatness of President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address at the time it was delivered.

The Patriot-News of Harrisburg, about 35 miles northeast of Gettysburg, retracted a dismissive editorial penned by its Civil War-era predecessor, The Harrisburg Patriot & Union.

The president’s speech is now considered a triumph of American oratory.

The retraction, which echoes Lincoln’s nowfamiliar language, said the newspaper’s November 1863 coverage was wrong when it described the speech as “silly remarks” that deserved a “veil of oblivion.”

The paper now says it regrets the error of not seeing its “momentous importance, timeless eloquence and lasting significance.”

“By today’s words alone, we cannot exalt, we cannot hallow, we cannot venerate this sacred text, for a grateful nation long ago came to view those words with reverence, without guidance from this chagrined member of the mainstream media,” the paper wrote, echoing the words of the address.

Separately, the paper also recounted how it covered the dedication of the national cemetery, nearly five months after the pivotal battle in which federal forces repelled a Confederate Army advance from Virginia into Pennsylvania. More than 3,500 Union soldiers killed in the battle are buried there.

During the Civil War, the Patriot & Union was a Democratic newspaper that was staunchly opposed to Lincoln.

An event to remember the 150th anniversary of the speech is scheduled for Tuesday in Gettysburg.

This image made from video shows a protester holding up spent ammunition in Tripoli, Libya, after militiamen attacked peaceful protesters demanding the disbanding of the country’s rampant armed groups on Friday killing tens of people as they opened fire on the march with heavy machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades.

Militias attack Libyan protesters, killing 31 Esam Mohamed Associated Press

TRIPOLI, Libya — Libyan militiamen opened fire Friday on white-flag-waving protesters demanding their disbandment, killing at least 31 people and wounding more than 200 in a barrage of heavy machine gun and rocket-propelled grenade fire.

Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zidan blamed the protesters and the militia alike for the violence, though witnesses said they saw no protesters carrying weapons ahead of the shooting Friday afternoon. By Friday night, however, some protesters joined by other militias had armed themselves and heavy gunfire rang out in the Tripoli neighborhood where the attack happened.

Armed groups set up checkpoints across the Libyan capital, hoping to stop other militias from entering the city.

Ambulance sirens wailed into the night.

The march in Tripoli by thousands of protesters was the biggest show of public anger at militias in months. Since the 2011 fall of dictator Moammar Gadhafi, hundreds of militias — many of them on government payroll — have run out

of control in Libya, carving out zones of power, defying state authority and launching violent attacks.

The protesters marched from a downtown mosque to a neighborhood called Gharghour, home to the headquarters of a militia originally from the city of Misrata that has a powerful presence in Tripoli. Many militias have turned villas and residential compounds of former Gadhafi-era officials into camps where they stash weapons The demonstrators waved Libyan and white flags and chanted, “We want an army, we want police,” referring to demands that the country’s weak security forces take the place of militias.

When they neared the building, militiamen in civilian clothes and military uniforms came out of the headquarters, opening fire. Protesters ran from gunfire while carrying others covered in blood.

Libyan state television put the death toll at 31, with 235 people wounded.

Witnesses all said the protesters carried no weapons. Al-Taher Basha Agha, commander of Misrata-based militia, told Libya’s private al-Ahrar television station that their rivals used the protesters as a cover to attack.

WASHINGTON — Brushing aside a White House veto threat, the Republicancontrolled House voted by a healthy bipartisan majority Friday to weaken a core component of “Obamacare” and permit the sale of individual health coverage that falls short of requirements in the law.

In all, 39 Democrats broke ranks and supported the legislation, a total that underscored the growing importance of the issue in the weeks since millions of cancellation notices went out to consumers covered by plans deemed inadequate under government rules.

The final vote was 261-157 as lawmakers clashed over an issue likely to be at the heart of next year’s midterm elections. The measure faces an uncertain fate in the Senate, where Democrats seeking re-election in 2014 are leading a move for generally similar legislation.

“For the last six weeks the White House stood idly by ignoring the pleas of millions,” said Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and lead sponsor of the legislation.

“Our straightforward, one-page bill says, if you like your current coverage, you should be able to keep it. The president should heed his own advice and work with us, the Congress, as the founders intended, not around the legislative process.”

But Democrats said the measure was just another in a long line of attacks on the health care bill from Republicans who have voted repeatedly to repeal it.

“It would take away the core protections of that law. It creates an entire shadow market of substandard health care plans,” said Rep. Henry Waxman of California.

The vote came shortly before President Barack Obama welcomed insurance company CEOs to a White House meeting, and one day after he announced a shift toward making good on his oft-repeated promise that anyone liking his pre-Obamacare coverage would be able to keep it.

In brief opening remarks, he did not refer to the House vote, and showed no give in his commitment to the program known by his name. “Because of choice and competition, a whole lot of Americans who have always seen health insurance out of reach are going to be in a position to purchase it,” he said.

No House vote on immigration this year Donna Cassata Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — The thirdranking House Republican told immigration advocates that lawmakers won’t vote this year on the issue, confirming what many had long assumed.

California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the majority whip, said in a meeting with immigration proponents that there weren’t enough days left for the House to act and he was committed to addressing overhaul of the nation’s immigration system next year. The congressman’s office confirmed what he said.

Angelica Salas, the board chairwoman for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, described her conversation with McCarthy in a conference call with reporters on Friday and a subsequent interview with the Associated Press.

“What he said was, there’s 13 days left, it’s very hard to do anything in 13 days,” Salas said of McCarthy.

The House returns next week after a weeklong break, but only has a few legislative days remaining.

The Senate passed a comprehensive bill in June that would provide a path to citizenship for the 11 million immigrants in the country illegally and tighten border security, but piecemeal bills in the House have languished since the summer.

Salas and about a dozen women occupied McCarthy’s Bakersfield, Calif., office on Thursday to increase the pressure on the Republican to move ahead on immigration legislation. Around 11 p.m. that night, McCarthy and his wife, Judy, met with the group protesting the delay.

“He said, ‘Ladies, I hear you want to talk to me. This is just not the way to do it,’” Salas recalled. She said McCarthy and the group spoke for about an hour, and the women explained that while they appreciated his support for immigration reform, it was imperative for the House to act as soon as possible.

“This is about political will to do what is right,” Salas said. “This is what we’re challenging.”

Most House Republicans reject a comprehensive approach as well as the Senate bill, with many questioning the offer of citizenship to people who broke U.S. immigration laws to be in this country. The House Judiciary Committee has moved forward with individual, singleissue immigration bills.

Erica Elliott, a spokeswoman for McCarthy, said Friday that he “supports fixing our broken immigration system.

He also believes that it is incumbent upon all participants in the debate to work together to address immigration reform on an issue-by-issue basis rather than demanding that any reform only happen in the context of a massive bill that fails

to appropriately address the underlying problems plaguing the current process.”

Although House Republican leaders say they want to resolve the issue, which has become a political drag for the GOP, many rank-and-file House Republicans have shown little inclination to deal with immigration. The bitter standoff with President Barack Obama on the budget and near default further angered House Republicans, who have resisted any move that might give Obama an immigration overhaul, the top item on his second-term domestic agenda.

Many House Republicans also are wary of passing any immigration legislation that would set up a conference with the Democratic-controlled Senate, fearing the House could lose out in final negotiations.

The Senate bill, strongly backed by the White House, includes billions for border security, a reworked legal immigration system to allow tens of thousands of highand low-skilled workers into the country and a 13-year path to citizenship for those living here illegally.

The conference call was sponsored by America’s Voice, an advocacy group.

Details of McCarthy’s conversation comes as the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops stepped up pressure on the House to act on immigration legislation before the end of the year, calling the issue “a matter of great moral urgency” that cannot wait.

Toronto council strips mayor of powers TORONTO (AP) — Toronto’s City Council voted overwhelmingly Friday to strip Mayor Rob Ford of some of his powers, trying to box in the brash leader who has rebuffed huge pressure to resign over his drinking and drug habits and erratic behavior. Ford vowed to challenge the measure in court.

The motion, approved in a 39-3 vote, suspends Ford’s authority to appoint and dismiss the deputy mayor and his executive committee, which runs the budget process. In a separate vote, the council voted to give the deputy mayor authority to handle any civic emergency. The effort will continue Monday when the council moves to strip the mayor of most of his remaining powers.

The votes capped another frenzied week of twists and turns in the scandal that has consumed Canada’s largest city and financial capital for months.

Newly released court documents showed that the mayor became the subject of a police investigation after news reports surfaced in May that he had been caught on video smoking crack. In interviews with police, former staffers accused the mayor of frequently drinking on the

job, driving while intoxicated and making sexual advances toward a female staffer.

Ford stirred up further controversy — even offending Canada’s oldest football team — when he used profanity Thursday while angrily addressing the latest allegations.

Most city councilors are frustrated by Ford’s refusal to step aside but they lack the authority to force him out of office unless he is convicted of a crime.

An unusually subdued Ford said he had no choice but to fight the motion in court while also saying he understood why the council was taking the measures — a typical display of defiance followed by a flash of remorse.

“If I would have had a mayor conducting themselves the way I have, I would have done exactly the same thing,” Ford said.

The mayor, a conservative who touts his efforts to curb public spending and keep taxes low, later made it clear he intends to seek re-election next year.

Ford’s lawyer, Dennis Morris, called the council’s actions a “coup” and said they have hired a municipal law expert to challenge it.

The vote came a day after yet another series of antics from Ford that outraged city councilors, anti-drunk driving advocates and even Toronto’s football team, which protested when Ford wore a team jersey while making a profanity-laced statement.

“We need to take away his power for the good of the city,” said Councilor Denzil Minnan-Wong, a former ally. “The tide has turned and there are very few people that are prepared to defend him given his vulgar comments and his admission that not only does he takes drugs but that he seems to be comfortable drinking and getting behind the wheel.”

Morris, Ford’s lawyer, said he thought the council’s overwhelming support to strip the mayor’s power came about because of the public outcry over the obscenity that Ford spouted a day earlier while denying that he pressured a female employee for oral sex. The mayor said on live television that he was “happily married” and used crude language to say he enjoys enough oral sex at home.

Ford announced Thursday that he was seeking help from a team of medical professionals.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A lot of very strange twists have brought Jason Campbell full circle.

Just before the trade deadline in 2011, Campbell dislocated his collarbone with his Raiders in position to make the playoffs. That injury during a game against the Browns started a cascade of changes that are still playing out.

Raiders coach Hue Jackson lobbied for Oakland to get the disgruntled Carson Palmer from Cincinnati in a trade, even if it came at a steep cost. The Raiders gave up a first-round and a second-round pick, then failed to make the playoffs.

Jackson was fired.

The Bengals used their picks to take cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick in 2012 and running back Giovani Bernard this year. They also hired Jackson as an assistant coach after he was fired by the Raiders.

Campbell? He moved on to the Browns (5-6), who are surprisingly still in contention In the AFC North in mid-November.

He’ll start on Sunday against the Bengals (6-4) at Paul Brown Stadium, which is Palmer’s old place.

Nobody saw that coming.

“Yeah, it’s been very strange,” Campbell said. “As I always tell the guys, you can never predict anything when you’re playing this game.

“Things that happened two years ago when I was out in Oakland and now to see yourself playing for the team you got hurt against, and now playing against the team that made the trade — it’s like a whirlwind.”

Cleveland’s season has been a whirlwind since it traded run-

ning back Trent Richardson after only two games. There was more quarterback drama — the Browns have known little else since they returned as an expansion team in 1999. Yet here they are, with a chance to stamp themselves as a playoff contender with a win on Sunday over the division leaders.

The Bengals are feeling a little pressure themselves after two straight overtime losses.

“Those overtime games are tough,” left tackle Andrew Whitworth said. “They’re tough on the body, tough on everybody involved. When you have all those plays week in and week out, it definitely carries over to the next week.

“Yeah, I think guys are excited to have an opportunity to kind of right the ship and go out and

play the way we want to play.”

Five things to watch on Sunday: HOW DOES CLEVELAND HANDLE ITS BIG MOMENT? The Browns have ached to be taken seriously for years. They haven’t won more than five games in any of the last five years. They can get win No. 5 on Sunday and sweep their intrastate series with the Bengals for the first time since 2002. What’s more, they can make those late-season games meaningful.

“I think guys are tired of that culture and that mindset of not being relevant in November,” tight end Jordan Cameron said.

PERFECT CAMPBELL: The 20th starting quarterback for the Browns since 1999 has shown a little promise.

Campbell has completed 63.4 percent of his passes for 555 yards and five touchdowns without an interception. He hasn’t thrown an interception in 90 attempts. He’s trying to become the first Browns passer to have a rating over 100 in three straight games since Bernie Kosar in 1989.

DALTON’S DOLDRUMS: Andy Dalton put together one of the best three-game stretches by any quarterback in Bengals history, helping them gain control of the AFC North. He threw 11 touchdowns passes in three games, a franchise first. But in the last two, he’s been dreadful: two touchdowns, six interceptions, 10 sacks. He repeatedly sailed his passes in the wind during a 20-17 overtime loss in Baltimore on Sunday.

HADEN ON GREEN: The Bengals failed to get a touchdown during a 17-6 loss in Cleveland earlier this season.

Dalton threw to A.J. Green 15 times, but he caught only seven passes for 51 yards with cornerback Joe Haden covering him closely. Haden has allowed only one touchdown this season by the receiver he’s covering.

“I don’t do all that hype and that stuff,” said Green, who leads the NFL in yards receiving with 1,013. “He’s a great corner. I have to go up against him. Nothing different.”

GOING OT: The Bengals are the 16th team to lose back-toback overtime games. They’re 1-2 in overtime this season. No team has played three straight overtime games in NFL history.

The record for overtime games in a season is five by the 1983 Packers.

Meyer: No letdown at Illinois today CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — If Illinois was hoping No. 3 Ohio State might look past them this week, Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer has some bad news.

Ohio State, he said, is focused on Saturday, even if the opposition hasn’t won a Big Ten game in more than two years.

“No issue whatsoever. This is a very invested team,” Meyer said this week. “(There) will be a bomb go off if I start to see that or we all start to see that.”

The Illini (3-6, 0-5 Big Ten) look like little more than a speed bump for the undefeated Buckeyes (9-0, 5-0).

Illinois has given up an average of 43.5 points a game the past four weeks, including 52 last week to Indiana. The Buckeyes, meanwhile, are scoring a bunch, 48.2 a game.

If Illinois has a hope, it probably rests with senior quarterback Nathan Scheelhaase. A season after looking like perhaps the Big Ten’s worst starting quarterback while he battled through injuries, he’s now, at least statistically, it’s best. Scheelhaase is throwing for a Big Ten-best 268.9 yards a game, has 15 touchdowns and just three interceptions.

What’s the difference?

“The first thing, I think, he’s healthy,” Illinois coach Tim Beckman said. “This year Nathan Scheelhaase is 100 percent.

(And) I think the dedication he showed through the summer with building his arm strength continues to impress me.”

Five things to keep an eye on

Saturday at Memorial Stadium: STYLE POINTS: Ohio State is locked in the third spot in the polls behind No. 1 Alabama and No. 2 Florida State, giving the Buckeyes every incentive to roll up the score any time they can.

Meyer didn’t exactly put it that way this week, but he acknowledged that, to stay in the conversation, Ohio State needs to “play great.”

“I expect them to play, we all expect them to play, they expect to play, at a very high level, because you’re in the same breath with some very, very good teams,” he said. “And to maintain that status you have to play very well. Very well.”

BET TER THAN UNDEFEATED? The 2012 edition of the Buckeyes went undefeated, but Meyer believes this year’s so-far undefeated team is better.

“We’re a better functioning team,” he said, pointing to his offense.

From a bottom-line point of view, he may be right. Ohio State is scoring 48.2 points a game, 11 points better than last year’s 37.2.

But Meyer believes last season’s defense, at least the one that finished the season, may have been a little better.

“Remember this time last year is when we hit the accelerator and we played excellent defense.”

IN A WORD, WEATHER: The last time Ohio State came to town, in 2011, the cold and

the wind led the Buckeyes to keep the ball on the ground.

Quarterback Braxton Miller, then a freshman, threw just four times in a 17-7 win.

Meyer, who wasn’t in charge for that game, said he watches the forecast closely. But he isn’t sure that the cold or the wind would force him to edit Miller’s arm out of the game plan this time.

“I can assure you that we’re in a much different place than he was two years ago,” Meyer said.

For what it’s worth, the forecast this time calls for a high in the low 60s, but rain and strong wind are possible.

SCHEELHAASE’S ON THEIR MINDS: For all that’s gone wrong with Illinois in the Big Ten season, Scheelhaase continues to roll. He threw for 450 yards and two touchdowns last week against Indiana.

And he has the Buckeyes’ attention.

“He’s definitely more of a QB than he was last year or the year before, watching him on TV when I was in high school,” sophomore linebacker Joshua Perry said. “Now he’s looking more, when he scrambles to throw the ball, instead of just taking off and running.”

THE STREAK: It grows a little every week and is part of the discussion ahead of every Illini game. Illinois hasn’t won a Big Ten game in its last 19 tries, dating to October 2011.

Beckman obligingly fields questions on it from reporters every week. But he says he isn’t talking about it with his players.

“We’ve been stressing a lot of positive stuff to these players,” he said. “I think they understand, I don’t think it needs to be brought up.”

Associated Press

NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson talks to reporters during a news conference Thursday at the Homestead-Miami Speedway in Homestead, Fla. Johnson will be competing in the season-finale NASCAR Spring Cup series auto race on Sunday.

6th title well within reach for Johnson HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — There was no trash talking, no attempts at mind games. If there was tension or nerves, nobody could tell.

In one of the tamest NASCAR title contenders’ news conferences in recent memory, Matt Kenseth and Kevin Harvick kept it light and breezy as they discussed their championship chances against Jimmie Johnson.

Why? “Maybe because he’s ahead by 28 points?”

Kenseth said. “If he was building his own engine, I’d be messing with him right now.”

Alas, Johnson won’t be building his own engine for the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where he needs only to finish 23rd or better to win his sixth Sprint Cup title. For Johnson, who has a 4.66 average finish through the first nine Chase races, it’s an easy Sunday drive.

“I think Jimmie could run (23rd) through the grass or with three wheels,” Kenseth said. “He’s going to have to have a mechanical problem or crash to make something happen.”

But nothing is a given in auto racing, as Johnson learned last year as he raced Brad Keselowski for the title.

Johnson went in to the penultimate race with a seven-point lead in the standings only to suffer a tire failure at Phoenix. It gave Keselowski a slight lead going into the finale, but Johnson had a mechanical failure that handed Keselowski his first championship.

Johnson, who reeled off

a record five titles from 2006 through 2010, came up empty for a second consecutive year.

“Last year was a good lesson for me, and I think I’m carrying some of that experience now in dealing with this,” Johnson said.

“We felt like things were going our way, we have the points lead, we go to Phoenix, the wheels fall off, literally.”

Tony Stewart tells a story from one of his sprint car championships when he went into the finale third in the standings with only a mathematical chance at winning the title. The driver second in the standings broke an oil filter early and blew up, then Stewart passed the points leader during the race, circled back around to the spot of the pass and saw the leader had crashed.

“I’m like, ‘Oh my God, did I do that?’ Couldn’t have done it, it was the guy right behind me who had contact with him and took him out,” Stewart said. “I ran second in the race and won the championship. I won the driver’s championship by one point and the owner’s by two points. We were just mathematically in it. I’m telling you, if you mathematically have a shot, then you are not out of it.”

Harvick has heard that story several times from Stewart, and put himself in position to race for the championship by never conceding anything. He picked up his fourth win of the season on Sunday at Phoenix when leader Carl Edwards ran out of gas coming to the white flag, and Harvick sailed by for the victory.

It cut Harvick’s deficit to Johnson to 34 points

Nov. 16, 1938 Five Sidney Rotarians appeared on a radio program over WHIO last evening when they were in a “yes and no” contest with five members of the Dayton YMCA. The members appearing on the program were: Elmo Arthur, Norbert Pointner, W.R. Minton, Urban Doorley and Joseph Wright. It was a close contest all the way through, but the Sidney boys faltered on the last two questions and lost the decision by that margin.

––––– Dr. Clyde Fisher, curator of the Hayden planetarium and Shelby County’s contribution to science’s hall of fame, has issued an interesting statement concerning the grotesque creatures featured in the now famous radio broadcast, “The Men of Mars.” The savant declares that men on Mars existing are a possibility not entirely within the realm of fantasy. “The consen-

sus of opinion among astronomers,” he said, “is that there probably is at least plant life on Mars. Since plant life and animal life develop together on earth, they may very well have done so on Mars.”

Nov. 16, 1963 A custom butchering shop including eight hogs which were to have been butchered today and power saw, scales, and meat slicer burned to the ground early today at the Wilbur Widney farm on Cisco Road, near Hardin Wapakoneta road. Widney noticed the fire at 2 a.m. and called the Fort Loramie fire department. The owners said the fire probably started from defective wiring. No estimate was given of the loss.

––––– William Kirby, owner of the Kirby Camera Shop, North Ohio Avenue, said today that he expects to have the studio in connection with the shop ready for use within a few days.

Kirby recently relocated his photographic operations in the Palmisano Building just one door south of where he was formerly located on North Ohio Avenue. Kirby opened the photographic operation approximately 13 years ago on South Ohio Avenue.

your home is large enough, set aside an area that includes toys for them to play with or a movie to watch. If they still cannot settle down, suggest to the parents that they “might want to go home since the kids are so restless.”

Dear Annie: Like “Not So Home Sweet Home,” I was once a 20-year-old who was uncomfortable around my stepfather. But I figured I would soon be out of the house. How I wish I had confronted him and told my mother.

He later molested my young daughter when she was at my mom’s house. My daughter is now 34 and has suffered greatly from what happened to her as a child. She had been told to keep the “special secret” between her and Grandpa. Grandpa was dead before this came to light, so the confrontation never took place.

Trust your feelings. Speak out. -Home Was Never Sweet Again.

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Nov. 16, 2013: This year you open up to others, which allows you to see and embody different ideas and styles. This transformation could cause new choices, though you will stay with the tried and true, too. If you are single, the type of person you choose to date could reflect the new you.

Expect an unusual person to enter your life by summer 2014. If you are attached, know that your sweetie is adjusting. You might hear a complaint or two, but be understanding. Respect your differences. TAURUS has an earthy perspective.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-Soso; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Someone you work with could be overwhelming with his or her sudden burst of enthusiasm. This energy might revolve around a business deal or a social happening. Do not say “yes” when you really want to say “no.” Tonight: Your treat.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH You might feel as if life offers no limitations at this present moment, but you quickly could find out otherwise. Just take a step back and evaluate the situation. You will find a different path. You might want someone else to join in.

Tonight: You are the party.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You could be full of ideas

that delight you. You easily might head out the door only to discover that you don’t want to be alone. You’ll want to regroup and find a reliable and fun family member, but he or she might be a stick in the mud. Tonight: The less said the better.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Tap into your creativity, and you’ll find solutions that have not been available up till now.

A conversation with a younger friend provides an unexpected perspective.

Make sure you let this person know how much you value him or her. Tonight: Go on an old-fashioned date.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Understand what is happening with a family member or close friend.

You might need to handle a situation before it becomes a problem. Know that you can do this. Once you are free, make an appearance at an important get-together. Tonight: You love being in the limelight.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Your words mean more to others than you realize.

Your ability to follow through on a promise could be another issue entirely. Try not to say you will do something when there is little possibility you will. Catch up on news.

Tonight: Hang out with a favorite person or two.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might think that a suggestion is a great idea, but when you see the financial implications, you

might decide to pull out.

Know that someone will be very disappointed. Be open, and tell this person what is happening. Tonight: Go with a different suggestion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You might feel as if you are being challenged unnecessarily. That observation could be true, but it has nothing to do with you. This person simply is feeling his or her Wheaties.

Maintain a sense of humor, and you’ll enjoy what is happening. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21) HHH Sometimes spending a Saturday doing errands -- getting your hair cut and squeezing in some exercise -- constitutes a nearly perfect day. Doing everything in one day also might free you up on other days or in general. Make time for a nap. Tonight: Avoid complications.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH The back-and-forth between a loved one’s desires and yours continues.

You might feel as if you’re sitting on a seesaw looking at ways to combine both of your desires once more. There is a way -- you just have not found it yet. Tonight: Be naughty and nice.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might be too concerned with what people would think if you did what you wanted to do. Instead of worrying, live your life for you,

and do what you want. Expect some reactions, but know that others do the same. Tonight: Staying close to home could be very appealing.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You seem to have the right words to appeal to someone in your immediate environment. News from a distance could be a bit difficult and disappointing.

Since you cannot change it, let it go. You will gain a perspective later. Tonight: Favorite spot, favorite people.

Sidney Daily News, Saturday, November 16, 2013

FFA From page 1 or which ones should be sent to the stockyards.

“There were four sets of reasons we had to do,” said Kramer. “There was also a written test for the nationals.”

The four students were divided into two teams of two members each for one of the national activities.

One was a market scenario, which dealt with the sale of animals. The other was a breeding activity.

“We had to judge a class of four bulls,” said

Moellenkamp. “We had data sheets on the bulls and we had to match them with a class of heifers based on what the farmer wanted his herd to be.

“We had to match up the best offspring we could for what the farmer wanted,” he said.

The national competition, they said, lasted two days.

There was also solo judging during the event.

The foursome have been practicing for the nationals since they won the state com-

petition.

“We had a lot of practice,” said Kramer. “Twice a week we’d get together to practice.”

“We’d go to a farm also,” said Buehler. “There was also a website we practiced on.”

In preparation for the nationals, the team competed in a contest in Nebraska, which provided them experience for the next round of competition.

“We would practice at night for the competition,” said Kramer. “Just before nationals we started practicing in the morning.”

Kramer is a senior at Botkins High School, while Moellenkamp and Buehler are juniors. Russell is a freshman at Ohio State UniversityLima Campus.

Since Russell is in college, it took juggling and good time management for the four to get together and practice for the competition.

“We’ve learned to make good decisions in being effi-

cient,” said Moellenkamp.

“We learned about time management and public speaking,” said Kramer. “We didn’t know the judges we were facing, so we become more confident in yourself.

“I’ve become a better speaker and in dealing with people,” she said. “I’ve gotten to meet so many people through this judging.”

The team also learned the importance of working together and studying hard to accomplish a goal.

“We learned the more effort that you put into something, the better results you will have,” said Moellenkamp.

“We’ve learned to have a good work ethic.”

All four have been involved in judging in FFA since their freshman year of high school.

Mollenkamp, Buehler and Russell all raise livestock on their family farms. Kramer only raises animals for her 4-H project.

“Getting in the top 15 in

the nation was our goal,” said Kramer. “We received a gold ranking as a team, that’s the highest rating a team can receive.”

Kramer finished 19th out of 184 competing at nationals. Russell placed 43rd, while Buehler placed 59th. All three received gold rankings.

Moellenkamp placed 91st, earning a silver rank.

This is the first time a team from Botkins has competed in the National FFA competition.

“We have a really young team,” said Kramer. “Most of the teams competing were made up of seniors and freshmen in college.”

Because the four won the state competition, they can’t compete in the same category at state for the rest of their high school careers. They can choose a different category if they want.

“They represented Botkins High School very well,” said Chad Berning, Botkins FFA

adviser/teacher. “Leading up to the state competition, they studied very hard. They had a lot of time and preparation for the national level of competition.”

Studying for the competition has also given the team members an insight on how to select animals for their farms and 4-H projects.

“I know how to select the animals,” said Moellenkamp.

“My dad doesn’t even say anything to me anymore when we are selecting animals. I have a better understanding of what the judge and individual wants. I’ve also learned how to take care of my animals better.”
