Wild and windy weather rolled in to Shelby County over the weekend, causing sporadic power outages.

A wind advisory was issued Saturday evening to continue through Sunday at midnight, with the strongest gusts — up to 50 mph — forecast for

Sunday evening. A tornado watch was issued late Sunday morning, in effect through 8 p.m.

A thunderstorm hit Saturday overnight into Sunday morning, dumping prodigious amounts rain throughout the county, leaving creeks running bank full and standing water in fields.

Tom Tatham, director of

operations for Dayton Power & Light, reported there were power outages through Saturday night caused by lightning in the area. By about noon Sunday, he said there were still about 530 DP&L customers without power, with about 400 of those in the Bellefontaine area.

Tatham said Sunday outages were caused by gusty winds

and more were anticipated later in the day. “When we start to see winds about 40 miles per hour, we start to see outages,� he said. “Winds are supposed to steadily increase throughout the day (Sunday) and peak this evening.�

Ohio Attorney General files appeal in Kimpel lawsuit Kathy Leese The Ohio Attorney Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office has announced it has filed an appeal in the lawsuit of former Shelby County Sheriff Dean Kimpel and is moving forward with fighting the suit in the higher courts as promised by Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.

Dan Tierney, an Ohio Attorney Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spokesman, released papers filed in Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3rd District Court of Appeals on Friday appealing the decision of Judge David

Presiding Judge Vernon Preston, Administrative Judge John Willamowski, Judge Stephen Shaw and Judge Richard Rogers will hear the case in the Court of Appeals in Lima.

The attorneys for the Ohio Attorney Kimpel Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office include William Maynard, assistant attorney general, trial counsel, and Judith Goldstein, assis-

tant attorney general, Criminal Justice Section, Corrections Unit. Kimpel is represented by attorneys Michael Rumer and Andrea Brown of Rumer and Maisch Co., LLC., Lima.

Tierney noted, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Shelby County Commissioners are appealing the lower court ruling and have requested the Attorney Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office continue representation of the commissioners in this case. â&#x20AC;Ś

The Attorney Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office and our client (Shelby County Commissioners) disagree with the lower courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ruling and we are hopeful this will be corrected through the appeals process.â&#x20AC;?

Tierney told the Sidney Daily News that he â&#x20AC;&#x153;cannot speculate on (a) time frame for the appeals process,â&#x20AC;? although a decision can typically take between six weeks to six months. Tierney said the next action will be for the See APPEAL | 9

RUSSIA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; What started about 20 years ago as a search for an explanation for some of her sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s physical ailments has led Becky Grillot to her current vocation, which she describes simply as her â&#x20AC;&#x153;work.â&#x20AC;?

Specifically, she makes homemade versions of consumer products.

And she makes just about anything, from toothpaste to dog treats, baby

wipes to leg wax.

Son Kevin was born with tuberous sclerosis complex, also known as TSC. It is a rare genetic disease that causes nonmalignant tumors to grow in the brain and on various vital organs. Tumors in the brain cause seizures. Developmental delay results in difficulty in school.

Symptoms of autism are reportedly present in 25 to 61 percent of children with TSC. Kevin was diagnosed as a baby and has been followed by the same doctor, first at Dayton Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and then Cincinnati Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospitals.

Shop with a Cop numbers given The Fraternal Order of Police 138 is busy collecting donations for the 17th annual Shop with a Cop and the organization is asking that local residents whose children might need assistance for the holidays or who want to make a donation should call a different set of phone numbers than those listed in the news article that appeared Friday.

According to Vic Elliott, one of the organizers of the group, the FOP needs all the help

it can get from local residents and businesses. But Elliott is asking that anyone who wants to apply for assistance from the FOP for their children or who wants more information on making a donation should contact the FOP by calling a different set of phone numbers.

They should call Gayle Daffler at 492-8080, ext.

406, or Kay Rose, 4928080, ext. 401.

The organization needs approximately $15,000 that will assist between 90 and 100 children.

Donations can be dropped off at the Sidney Police Department or they can be mailed to FOP 138, P.O. Box 15, Sidney, OH 45365. Checks and money orders should be made out to FOP 138.

Elliott noted in a prior article that he and Shelby County Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Booth are making calls over a fourweek period asking for donations. He noted that unless he or Booth call, it is not the Shop with a Cop program. Elliott asked that people call

him at 498-7809 if they suspect someone else is improper soliciting for donations.

The FOP will continue its fundraising efforts through Dec. 7. The group needs all the assistance it can get due to not being able to collect funds at Walmart earlier this fall due to the weather.

The FOP is expressing their gratitude to local residents and businesses who are helping with donations. The group needs a lot more donations by Dec. 7 to meet its goal.

Man stole backhoe, drove miles to Philly PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A Pennsylvania man has been jailed on charges he stole a $125,000 backhoe from a suburban construction site then drove it about 30 miles to a scrapyard in Philadelphia where he intended to sell it.

Police estimate it would have taken 33-year-old William Michael Pusey about 2 1/2 hours to make the trip to Philadelphia from Shainline Excavating of Phoenixville, where the backhoe was stolen Sunday.

State police say the backhoe’s owner was able to locate it because of a global-positioning device in it.

Police say Pusey was arrested in Philadelphia where he had heard someone wanted to buy a backhoe.

Court records don’t list an attorney for Pusey, of Columbia, who has been returned to the Lancaster County Prison because he faces an outstanding unrelated arrest warrant for theft there.

Aid missions boost US image Eric Talmadge Associated Press

ABOARD THE USS GEORGE WASHINGTON (AP) — As soon as Navy pilot Matthew Stafford puts his helicopter down in the village of Borongan, he is rushed by dozens of local men who form a line to unload the supplies and water he has flown in from the mothership, the USS George Washington aircraft carrier.

Children swarm him as he breaks out a box of sweets.

On the Philippine islands of Leyte and Samar that were shattered by Typhoon Haiyan, there is no doubt about it: the U.S. military has been a godsend. “It is awesome to see this,” says one grateful villager. “They are saving us.”

But while U.S. military support can be critical when disasters like Haiyan strike, staging massive humanitarian relief missions for allies in need isn’t just about being a good neighbor. They can be a strategic and publicity goldmine for U.S. troops whose presence in Asia isn’t always portrayed in such a favorable light — and a powerful warning to countries that aren’t on board.

“These disasters are not unique only to the Philippines.

It will send a signal to all of Southeast Asia, to Asia, that the U.S. is serious about its presence here,” said Philippine political analyst Ramon Casiple. “It’s easy to translate this capability for disaster handling into handling warfare.

This is the new orientation of the task forces.”

From the military perspective, humanitarian missions like the ongoing Operation Damayan in the Philippines offer concrete benefits — the

Naval Aircrewman 2nd Class Jason Rimando, from Torrance, Calif., left, passes water containers to Filipino civilians in support of Operation Damayan in Henane, Philippines, Saturday. Sailors from the USS George Washington assist the Philippine government in response to the aftermath of the Super Typhoon Haiyan in the Republic of the Philippines.

For U.S. allies like the Philippines, Vietnam, South Korea, Thailand and to some extent Indonesia, it is an affirmation of the U.S. commitment. For others — Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar who are more closely aligned with China — he said the mission is a not-so-subtle message that the U.S remains the biggest power in the region.

Within hours of the typhoon, U.S. Marines were on their way from their bases in Japan to assess the damage and plan out their response. Within days, the George Washington was pulling out of Hong Kong to lead its half-dozen ship battle group to the Gulf of Leyte.

By the time they arrived, the U.S. Air Force was already in action.

According to the Marines, U.S. military aircraft have put in nearly 480 flight hours in 186 aircraft sorties, moved nearly 1,200 relief workers into the devastated city of Tacloban

and have airlifted nearly 2,900 displaced people from the affected areas. On Saturday alone, they delivered more than 118 tons of food, water and shelter items to Tacloban, Borongan and Guiuan — some of the hardest-hit regions.

More than 600 U.S. military personnel are currently ashore in the Philippines. The USS George Washington strike group adds another 6,200 sailors supporting air operations, and 1,000 Marines and sailors with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit are expected to arrive later this week.

“Getting to help people is actually the primary thing that we signed up to do,” Toby Pickens, a Navy rescue diver, said after helping off-lift supplies during several hours of helicopter operations from the George Washington. “It’s not so much the combat that we are looking for … Compared to anything else we do, I would say that this is by far the tops.”

Unions set sights on governor’s race John Seewer Associaed Press

TOLEDO (AP) — Union leaders are now looking ahead at Ohio’s governor’s race after knocking off a big city mayor who they say was their top political target this year.

Organized labor helped oust Toledo’s mayor — an ally of Gov. John Kasich — who infuriated unions two years ago by appearing in a TV commercial backing the collective bargaining law that Ohio voters later overturned.

Democrats and labor officials believe that independent Toledo Mayor Mike Bell’s loss two weeks ago to another, union-backed inde-

chance to operate in far-flung places, build military-to-military alliances and get realistic training — that they may later apply to their primary mission, which will always be fighting and winning wars.

“Crisis response planning is a skillset for the military, so when you have an opportunity to execute crisis response it’s good for your planning team,” said Rear Adm. Mark C. Montgomery, who commands the George Washington strike group, stationed offshore in the Gulf of Leyte. “So, sure, there is a benefit there. But in reality the reason we do this mission is because in the Navy’s list of missions this is one of the significant efforts we plan for.”

In the week since the disaster, the Philippines has started to receive support from military forces around the region.

Australia, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan have sent aircraft or personnel and more support is expected soon from Brunei, Great Britain, New Zealand and Thailand.

But none has come close to matching the U.S. Equally importantly, America’s regional rival China has not sent any military personnel, and contributed relatively tiny financial aid.

“This is being done in a big way that highlights the meager response of China — that’s the politics there. They’re saying China is not actually your friend in the region,” said Casiple “I’m sure China is watching and assessing,” he said. China announced Sunday it is ready to send rescue and medical teams to the Philippines, but did not say when the teams would depart.

pendent was fueled by his endorsement of the Republican plan to limit collective bargaining for public workers.

“A lot of what our membership responded to was that Mayor Bell aligned himself so closely with Gov. Kasich,” said Mike Gillis, a spokesman for the Ohio AFL-CIO. Kasich’s critics are hoping that there is enough anger left over from the contentious debate in 2011 to defeat him. But defeating the governor will be a much bigger challenge than taking out Toledo’s mayor, who had fallen out of favor with unions in a town dominated by organized labor.

Unions plan to remind voters often it was the

governor who signed the law that would have prohibited more than 350,000 public employees from negotiating health care and pension benefits and would have banned public employee strikes.

They also are warning that there is a movement led by conservatives to follow the lead of Michigan and Indiana by turning Ohio into a right-to-work state.

Kasich has distanced himself from right-towork supporters who want to ban mandatory union membership and prohibit Ohio unions from charging dues to non-members. He has said that making Ohio a right-to-work state is not one of his priorities.

The governor told

reporters following the November election that he’s not sure if the debate over collective bargaining will continue to be an issue during his bid for a second term.

“I would hope in the election next year the campaign is about issues and not what we’ve been able to see in the past,” he said.

Jim Ruvolo, a former Ohio Democratic Party chairman who’s now a political consultant, said union voters will still be motivated by what they thought was as an attack on their rights two years ago, but that won’t be what determines who wins.

“The race is going to be decided to on the economy,” he said.

Fo r m e r Ohio

Republican Party chairman Bob Bennett doubts that Kasich’s role in the collective bargaining fight will carry much weight outside union strongholds in northern Ohio.

“It’s not going to have an impact in other parts of the state,” he said.

Still, Democrats and union leaders are hopeful it will, especially after Bell’s defeat.

Ray Wood, who leads a United Auto Workers unit in Toledo, said he doesn’t believe that attempts to take away the bargaining rights of unions are over, and that will bring out more blue-collar voters next November.

“In some ways, they’ve awakened a sleeping giant,” he said.

Concealed carry permits increase COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio has issued a record-breaking number of concealed-weapons licenses this year.

Just over 82,000 new permits were handed out through the first nine months of this year, which is much more than all of last year, the Ohio attorney general’s office said.

The highest yearly total of new licenses issued in Ohio had been 64,000 in 2012.

A spokesman with Ohioans for Concealed Carry told The

Columbus Dispatch that there’s an upward trend of people wanting to carry out their Second Amendment rights.

“A lot of people forget that the right to bear a firearm is an enumerated constitutional right just as freedom of religion and speech,” said Philip Mulivor.

Ohio’s concealed-carry law allows people with firearms-safety training to apply for a license with their county sheriff ’s departments.

About 426,000 permits have been issued

Franklin County, which includes Columbus, had the most new licenses during the third quarter of this year with 1,382 while Montgomery County, home to Dayton, issued 1,237.

Lake County, which is just east of Cleveland, had 920 permits. Three counties in southwest Ohio each issued over 600 new permits — Hamilton, Butler and Clermont.

Attorney General Mike DeWine said in August that it was difficult to pinpoint the reasons behind the increase. He did say that more people are becoming familiar with the law.

since the program began in 2004.

Ohio’s licensing statistics show that more than 32,000 new and renewed permits were issued from July through September — an increase of 87.5 percent over the same three months last year.

The head of the Ohio Coalition Against Gun Violence said she was worried about the increase.

“We think that carrying a concealed weapon puts the public at a greater risk of being subjected to gun violence. The more guns in public, the more available they are for someone to innocently be shot,” said Director

Your horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2013: This year you will be dealing with someone’s assertive attitude. You could be overwhelmed by the demands that surround your friendships. Spend less time with someone who is demanding. Take good care of yourself. If you are single, a very special relationship could develop, but you might not be realistic about this person. When reality hits, you might be upset. Remember that you are the one who put this person on a pedestal. If you are attached, the two of you will be more social than usual. You also both will be involved in a political or community commitment. VIRGO can push you very hard.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your words will dissect a problem that seems like a maze to others. You could be more irritated than usual when dealing with those around you. Know that a comment you make might mean nothing to you, but it could hurt someone’s feelings. Tonight: Catch up on a pal’s news.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might be overspending and/or concerned about your finances. Speak your mind in a discussion rather than hold back and sit on your feelings. You might find that sharp words are exchanged. Don’t hold on to the comments. Tonight: Let someone else treat for once.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You could go overboard trying to make amends over a comment or a situation on the homefront. You nearly feel like a little kid in that you want to run away. You simply are fed up and tired of a repeating, unchangeable situation. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Much is going on, and you could be a part of some gossip. You might be angrier at a neighbor, relative or associate than you realize. Know that the words you speak will be impossible to take back. Tonight: Stay out of trouble. Get some extra R and R. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You are generally upbeat and always seem to have a jovial attitude. Friends surround you, but one of them might be costing you a lot either emotionally or financially. It would be wise to say something before your feelings become even stronger. Tonight: Hang out with a friend.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You have a lot on your plate, but you also have a lot of support. You might wonder when enough is enough.

You will be able to determine that soon enough, especially as you are likely to lose your temper at the same time. Tonight: Do what you must, but no more than that.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Keep reaching out to someone you care about. Anger might be closer to the surface than you realize. Be imaginative and forthright in how you deal with others who often seem snobby or above it all. Your sense of humor is contagious. Tonight: Venture off the beaten track.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Continue what might be a very intense one-on-one conversation. You might not be comfortable with the person or even the topic, but this transaction is necessary in order to work through an issue. Keep conversations moving. Tonight: With a favorite person.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You need to be sensitive to your significant other or to whomever you are dealing with. Fatigue marks an angry discussion that you normally would not have. A boss or someone in a supervisor position could push you very hard. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Pace yourself, especially if you suddenly become buried in a plethora of information or calls. You need to handle an immediate situation. A partner or associate will chip in and help you. Be grateful. Try not to lose your temper. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your mischievous side might emerge with a partner who, unfortunately, might not be in the same playful mood. Before you know it, you could be in quite a tiff.

Maintain your composure. If you can’t get along with this person, then back off. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Pressure builds as you run into a grumpy associate.

At the same time, someone is very demanding on the homefront. You might be confused by everything that goes on. You can simply laugh about it or you can decide to get upset. It is your choice. Tonight: Head on home.

Deb Holthaus, of Upper Valley CC, gave a tour and information about some of the classroom areas including cosmetology, early childhood education and care, computer technologies and medical information management/medical technologies. She said that a new curriculum for this year is exercise science, which allows a student to learn to be a personal trainer or an exercise physiologist.

There are 860 students enrolled on the main campus from 14 area high schools and 1,985 satellite students at 14 satellite locations.

All students are issued laptops, which allows the instructors to use the latest technology in

the classroom.

The Cornerstone @8811 restaurant is open to the public for lunch on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, when school is in session, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Students in the culinary arts program served the women a luncheon of ravioli with chicken, Californiablend vegetables, sevenlayer salad, rolls and pumpkin pie with caramel sauce.

S&H Products gives awards at special event S&H Products honored its employees and people who support the work of the agency during a special event recently.

The 26th annual S&H Products Appreciation Reception was held at Shelby Oaks as an opportunity to recognize people with developmental disabilities who work hard all year and those who support the work of the agency.

The reception began with a welcome by Brian Stotler, an S&H employee, and was followed

by dessert, which was catered by the Spot in Sidney.

This year’s 2013 Person of the Year award was presented to Ryan Hoying. He received this award for his positive attitude, the pride he takes in his work, and for the joy he experiences with his colleagues and surroundings.

Five individuals were recognized for their community support: Sara Barr, in appreciation of her support and contribution to “Spirit and

Hands” at S&H Products; Gateway Arts, in appreciation for respecting and displaying the creativity of all artists; Vicky Cordonnier at the Ohio State Extension Office in appreciation for all she has done to promote healthy choices in daily living; and the Shelby County Animal Shelter and Shelby Landscaping for their support and assistance to “Transition to Employment.”

The Pe rs o n a l Achievement Award was given to six employees

for progress in reaching a personal goal or an outstanding achievement. Awards were presented to Tricia Kaim, Shane Laughman, Kaylajo Maxwell, Nathan McConnahea and Joseph Toney.

Years of service awards were also presented. Pete Foy was given a watch for 35 years of service and Connie Poeppelman received a crystal plaque for 25 years of service.

Also receiving awards were Mike Hogue and Sara Mestemaker, who

received S&H watches for 15 years of service, and Clissie Immel and Tonya York, who received plaques for 10 years of service.

The Shirley Warbington Award was given to Jolene Crawford. The award is given to honor its namesake who was a longtime S&H Products employee who made a difference with her positive attitude, respect for others, and encouraging smile.

Donna Ruble was recognized for being a long-

term friend and supporter of S&H Products with her vision and ability to bring out the talents of the S&H employees who are artists.

Rick Husa, S&H director, thanked Donna Inman, the Spot restaurant and Shelby Oaks Golf Club for their efforts in making the event special and he thanked everyone who attended the event.

S&H employees received pumpkin centerpieces that decorated the tables as door prizes.

$25,651.58; Refuse Operating Fund, $67,554; Enterprise Deposit Fund, $20,000; and Unclaimed Monies Fund, $36.17.

maximum of $15,000.

“Sleepyhead’s Mother-In-Law-To-Be,” you missed an opportunity to educate the public about delayed sleep-phase disorder. DSPD is a circadian rhythm disorder that prevents sufferers from falling asleep until some hours after midnight. Consequently, we find it difficult to wake in the morning.

DSPD doesn’t respond well to medication, therapy or sleep hygiene (relaxation techniques, avoiding caffeine, adequate light exposure during the day, etc.) because it is not insomnia. But the most difficult aspect may be the social censure from people who are convinced we are lazy and self-indulgent.

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Nov. 18, 2013: This year you often might stray off topic and find that you are mentally distracted. Learn to eliminate distractions by handling the issue at hand. Many interesting and creative ideas emerge from your daydreaming; be sure to write them down. If you are single, romance remains a high priority. You are likely to see potential suitors only through rose-colored shades. If you are attached, use care with children, as they can be evasive at times.

Your relationship benefits from sharing more with your sweetie. Develop a mutual hobby. GEMINI can be verbal, distracting and charming all at the same time.

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 You will state your case or pursue a desire with intention. Those around you could be a little confused by your words and actions.

You might see doubt in their expressions, so try to understand where they are coming from. Tonight: Make calls and catch up on a friend’s news.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You might feel a bit selfindulgent and go overboard.

Listen to your instincts in a meeting or perhaps at a get-together with a friend.

You will gain unexpected insights that could stop you in your tracks. Digest this

perspective first, then act.

Tonight: Run some errands.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You smile, and the world smiles with you.

You have unusual insight into a friendship and its meaning. You can count on the unpredictability of this person, but you still will enjoy and value this bond.

Tension builds around a responsibility. Tonight: It is your call.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might want to head in a more appealing direction. Do some testing first, and consider that you might not know the whole story. You also might not have a grasp on what could happen if you decide to follow an untried path.

Tonight: Read between the lines with a boss.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Meetings will bring good results. A partner could be in disagreement, as he or she might not have heard all the details. Know that you can’t change this person’s mind. Detach and see what happens. You will learn a lot about him or her if you do.

Tonight: Surf the Web. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Pressure builds and creates a lot of nervous energy. You might wonder what to do about a situation that demands your attention.

Others do not realize how much you do, and they will continue to be unclear until you walk away. An offer comes your way. Tonight: Busy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Detach. You might

wonder which way to go with an important relationship.

You and this person have wanted to plan a trip for a while, so get the ball rolling.

The true reason for the trip might not be what you say or think. Be honest with yourself. Tonight: Make some calls.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Deal with others directly if you want to get a reasonable response. Stop wondering what might be best to do. Ask for feedback, encourage a brainstorming situation and move forward only when you have enough information to make a sound decision. Tonight: Visit over dinner.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21) HHHH Defer to others, especially if you are not as sure of yourself as you normally are. Allow someone else who is more confident to take the lead, at least about the issue at hand. A child could be provocative yet endearing. You need to maintain a strong stance.

Tonight: Say “yes.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You might be more focused on an idea than you realize. Someone could drop a heavy book right by you, and you would not even hear it hit the floor. Try to be present in the moment, at least some of the time. Take a walk to center yourself.

Tonight: The unexpected occurs.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Allow your creativity to emerge. Whether you decide

Tornadoes, damaging storms sweep Midwest Don Babwin Associated Press

CHICAGO (AP) — Intense thunderstorms and tornadoes swept across the Midwest on Sunday, causing extensive damage in several central Illinois communities while sending people scrambling for shelter and even prompting officials at Chicago’s Soldier Field to evacuate the stands and delay the Bears game.

The community of Washington in central Illinois appeared particularly hard-hit, with one resident saying his neighborhood was wiped out in a matter of seconds.

“I stepped outside and I heard it coming. My daughter was already in the basement, so I ran downstairs and grabbed her, crouched in the laundry room and all of a sudden I could see daylight up the stairway and my house was gone,” Michael Perdun said Sunday afternoon in an interview with The Associated Press on his cellphone. “The whole neighborhood’s gone, (and) the wall of my fireplace is all that is left of my house.”

By mid-afternoon it remained unclear how many people were hurt.

In a news release, the Illinois National Guard said it had dispatched 10 firefighters and three vehicles to Washington to assist with “immediate search and recovery

operations in the tornado damaged area.”

And Steve Brewer, chief operating officer at Methodist Medical Center of Illinois in Peoria, said that four or five people had come to the hospital seeking treatment, but he described their injuries as minor.

He said another area hospital had received about 15 patients, but did not know the severity of their injuries.

Brewer said doctors and other medical professionals were setting up a temporary emergency care center to treat the wounded before transporting them to area hospitals.

“I went over there immediately after the tornado, walking through the neighborhoods, and I couldn’t even tell what street I was on,” Alderman Tyler Gee told WLS-TV. “Just completely flattened — some of the neighborhoods here in town, hundreds of homes.”

About 90 minutes after the tornado destroyed homes in Washington, the storm darkened downtown Chicago. As the rain and high winds slammed into the area, officials at Soldier Field evacuated the stands and ordered the Bears and Baltimore Ravens off the field. Fans were allowed back to their seats shortly after 2 p.m., and the game resumed after about a two-hour delay.

Earlier, the Office of Emergency Management and Communications issued a warning to fans, urging them “to take extra precautions and … appropriate measures to ensure their personal safety.” NFL games in Cincinnati and Pittsburgh also could be affected by the rough weather.

The storm also followed dire warnings by the National Weather Service of what was coming and that the storm was simply moving too fast for people to wait until they saw it to get ready.

tional information was not available outside regular office hours.

Sidney Daily News partner WDTN reported a PDS (particularly dangerous situation) tornado watch issued by early afternoon

Sunday, which indicated the likelihood of large hail, intense tornadic activity and winds near 80 mph.

The NOAA/National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center put the area under a “high” risk

of severe weather, which WDTN Meteorologist Tara Hastings called in the station’s weather blog “very rare.” She wrote that the last time the area was under “high risk” was March of 2012.

Appeal From page 1A Court of Appeals judges to set a briefing schedule. The briefing schedule will include dates by which both sides must submit merit briefs and responses.

DeWine had told the Sidney Daily News in a phone interview in October that his office planned to continue the fight involving the lawsuit after the commissioners’ request for repayment of Kimpel’s salary was denied by Faulkner. “We’re not going to let this go. We’re going to continue this battle,” DeWine said.

Faulkner had stated in his ruling that Kimpel does not have to return the money and wrote that Kimpel’s suspension should have been in both Auglaize and Shelby counties, because Kimpel was facing charges in

both counties at the time.

Miami County Municipal Court Judge Gary Nasal, who was Miami County prosecutor at the time and special prosecutor in the case, along with Tony Kendell, who was also a special prosecutor in the case and is now Miami County prosecutor, filed for Kimpel’s suspension using Ohio Revised Code 3.16, which was the first time in Ohio that the statute had been used to suspend a sheriff from office. Kimpel was suspended from office after he was indicted on sexual battery charges in Auglaize County.

Although those charges were dropped as part of a plea agreement, he was found guilty of a felony in Shelby County.

Kendell said recently while

he was respectfully “disappointed” in Faulkner’s decision, he is “confident that Attorney General DeWine’s office … (will) have a high probability of success” in an appeal.

The Shelby County Commissioners are wanting to recoup $60,424.87 plus interest for salary that Kimpel received while he was suspended. At the time the lawsuit was initially filed, DeWine’s office argued that Kimpel was “unjustly enriched $60,424.87 for holding the office of Sheriff of Shelby County, but did not exercise any of the rights, powers or responsibilities of the office between Oct. 6, 2011, and June 15, 2012.”

Faulkner had ruled that the “crucial issue” before him was

“the meaning of the words, ‘any felony with which the public official was charged.’” Faulkner stated that “enrichment is only unjust if it is improperly received and retained. Since it was received pursuant to law, the doctrine of unjust enrichment has no application.”

The Shelby County Commissioners had expressed concern over having to pay attorney fees and court costs for the case to move forward and for the initial lawsuit.

However, because Ohio is not a loser-pays state, they are not responsible for attorney fees.

“Moving forward, we would continue to be responsible for those … (court) costs,” County Commissioner Julie Ehemann said. The court fees totaled

$205.80 for the initial lawsuit.

Maynard and Goldstein, along with David Picken, another representative of the AG’s office, met with the commissioners on Thursday regarding the lawsuit.

While it was held in executive session due to attorneyclient privilege, Ehemann said the commissioners were “very appreciative” that the AG’s office met in person with them.

Goldstein told the Sidney Daily News, “This is a case of first impression. The statute has never been tested before. The judge saw it one way. It wasn’t our (AG’s) way.”

The lawsuit has statewide implications for other public officials and will now continue through the appeals process as the first case of its kind.

Health From page 1 By age 6 or 7, Kevin was having frequent stomach aches and lingering dark circles under his eyes. Steroids to deal with other problems caused excessive weight gain. Dietitians consulted by his parents discussed portion size but never addressed the contents or ingredients of his diet.

Quite by accident, Becky came upon an article about allergic reactions to foods and learned of the many chemical additives not only in food but also in cleaning products, personalcare products, and even cold remedies. She was intrigued by this information, so began eliminating, one by one, commercially prepared food from Kevin’s diet. Before long she could see a positive change in Kevin.

Gradually the rest of her family was converted to many of the foods Becky was preparing for Kevin.

She was already a make-from-scratch cook, but took it a step further.

Not content to use only her home-canned garden vegetables or meat butchered on the farm, she began experimenting with making condiments such as mustard, ketchup and salad dressings, homemade noodles, home-baked bread and desserts. Periodically the family would have to add another freezer (they now have three fully stocked) to preserve everything that wasn’t dried or canned.

Becky sought out local sources for eggs, raisedon-the-farm chickens, and honey. White granulated sugar was replaced by xylitol; brown sugar is used to make facial and hand scrub. As Becky continued to read and learn, to experiment and create, her children living at home became the “tasters and testers.” By process of trial and error, new products were added to her list.

By now Becky has a sixth sense or an intuition about ingredients,

quantities and processes and seldom relies on the recipes of others. Nor does she rely on a computer and the Internet.

Instead, she uses reference sections in books to locate sources for unusual ingredients. Some items are found in health food stores. Sometimes small containers for lip balm, as an example, must be ordered from catalogs.

Of course some food items must still be purchased, such as flour and spices, but when asked what types of commercially canned food are sitting in her cupboard, she replied, “Two cans of coconut milk; that’s it.”

One motivation that moved Becky forward, in addition to “positive changes” she could see in her children, was economics. “It’s much cheaper to make your own. For example, my daughter-inlaw reminded me recently that she needs to make more laundry soap. We can make a year’s supply for a family of five

for about $20.” Becky has cut her grocery shopping trips to about once a month.

Frank and Becky have five children. Matt lives in Tennessee with his wife, Julie, and three children; Doug and Amelia and their three children live in Russia; Elizabeth lives in Sidney; and the youngest, Michelle, is a student at Miami University in Oxford. Kevin, age 25, lives at home and loves working at S&H Products in Sidney. The six grandchildren, ranging in age from 2 to 12, are a new generation of tasters and testers.

As Becky explained, “The parents of our grandchildren try to follow my lead, but not to the same degree I do.

Worst was my husband because he was used to everything fried.” With a wry smile she admitted that Frank has ample opportunities to eat out.

Kevin also likes eating out with his care provider. “He really likes tacos!

I let him do that once in a while as a special treat even though he usually complains of a stomach ache when he gets home.”

While attending Marion Local High School in Maria Stein, the former Becky Nance’s favorite classes were not chemistry or home economics, as one might expect, but history. She still counts reading as her favorite hobby. For a few years Becky worked as an aide at the Nicklin Learning Center in Piqua, but gave that up a couple years ago.

She does her “work” at home and cares for Kevin, who is blind as a result of brain surgery when he was 9 years old.

Becky proudly described Kevin as “always happy.”

Sometimes, he and her 7-year-old grandson, Junior, work together to label jars and bags of Becky’s latest creations.

Their results bring that quiet smile back. When daughter Michelle couldn’t read the label on a package of hominy,

Becky reminded her, with a laugh, “Just remember, you have a second-grader leading a blind person — or maybe it’s the other way around.”

While all this discussion was going on, Becky was working at the table on her yogurt. Using milk kefir grains as a starter, the kefir multiplies and gets lumpy. Then you drain off the liquid and use the lumpy kefir to begin the fermentation process with fresh milk.

After about 20 days, and many repetitions of this process, you get enough kefir milk to make about a quart of yogurt. She pointed out the chemicals listed on a carton of commercially produced yogurt.

When asked what her late mother would think of what she was doing, she replied, “I come from a family of eight children so I remember Mother doing a lot of canning. If she were here today, I think she’d try the things I make. I think she would be proud.”

Lehman running back Greg Spearman is tackled by Tim Marsalis in high school football action at Lehman’s Kris Lee makes a diving interception as teammate Lane Monnin looks on in playoff action at Wapakoneta Saturday night.

Wapakoneta Saturday night.

Lehman’s season ends in 14-7 loss

Rob Kiser

WAPAKONETA — Had anybody told Lehman football coach Dick Roll — and the Lehman fans — the team would not only win 10 games this year, but have a 10-game winning streak, they all would have been ecstatic.

But, that didn’t make having the season — and the winning streak — end with a hard-fought 14-7 loss to Triad at Harmon Field Saturday night any easier to accept.

“We exceeded expectations,” Roll said. “I told the kids that this week. But you still want to win the game.”

And the fact that in the end, several critical mistakes and not cashing on opportunities was the difference made it a tough pill for the Cavaliers to swallow.

“It wasn’t just one or two plays,” Roll said. “We were our own worst enemies the whole game. But you have to give Triad credit. They took advantage of opportunities the whole game.

So you have to give them credit.”

Neither team could dent the scoreboard until Lehman put together a 16-play drive that took almost five minutes off the clock midway through the third quarter.

On a night with less than ideal conditions for two passing teams, Lehman ran the ball 13 times on the drive.

The Cavaliers converted two fourth downs on the drive.

On fourth-and-four from the Triad 36, Greg Spearman ran four yards for the first down.

On on fourth-and-three from the Cardinals 25, quarterback Nick Rourke kept the ball and made the first down by inches.

That led to a 2-yard touchdown run by Lane Monnin on second-andgoal. Ian Smith’s PAT kick put Lehman up 7-0 with 4:12 remaining in the third quarter.

“Our offense has struggled the last four or five games,” Roll said. “But, we were able to put a drive together.”

Triad would immediately answer with an 8-play, 65-yard drive.

Doug Lowe hooked up with Steven Feasel and Ryan Boyd for completions of 22 and 19 yards on the drive, before connecting with Feasel on a 14-yard TD pass on third-and-eight.

Luke Donohoe’s PAT kick tied it at 7-7 with :35 remaining in quarter.

And from there, that’s one things went all wrong for the Cavaliers.

With 9:46 remaining in the game, Lehman had a first-and-10 at its own 46.

Damian Boldman stepped in front of a Cavalier pass at the Triad 45 for his second interception of the game and went 55 yard untouched for what would be the winning score. Donohoe’s kick made it 14-7 with 9:33 remaining.

Just three plays after the kickoff, it appeared Lehman would tie the game.

On third-and-five from the Lehman 46, Rourke scramble and broke loose down the right sideline for what appeared to be a 54-yard TD run.

But, Lehman was called for a block in the back at the 22. That moved the ball back to the Triad 32 and the drive stalled

CINCINNATI (AP) — No overtime this time.

The Cincinnati Bengals brushed aside their intrastate rival and strengthened their hold on the AFC North with one record-setting quarter.

Essentially, it was over by halftime.

And now the Bengals have a chance to make quick work of the rest of the division, too.

Andy Dalton threw two touchdown passes and Cincinnati returned a blocked punt and a fumble for touchdowns during a 31-point second quarter on Sunday that set a Bengals record and swept them to a 41-20 victory over the Cleveland Browns.

The Bengals (7-4) fell behind 13-0 in the first quarter before putting it away with 15 minutes of domination all around.

“That was crazy,” defensive tackle Domata Peko said. “I haven’t seen anything like that — so many points in a couple of minutes and the momentum changing so fast.”

Cincinnati heads into its bye week with its division lead intact and two rough weeks washed away. The Bengals had lost their last two games

in overtime, tying the NFL record and allowing the Browns (4-6) to draw close.

“Cleveland has done a lot of really good things, put themselves in position in the division that this was a really big game for both teams,” Dalton said.

The Browns had pegged it as a chance to show they’re a contender.

Instead, they got their comeuppance — the most lopsided game in the intrastate series since Cincinnati’s 30-0 win in Cleveland in 2006.

“I’m disappointed we lost and in the way we lost, but we’ve got Pittsburgh coming in and the next two are at home,” linebacker D’Qwell Jackson said.

“That gives us a chance to get back on track. I’m glad this one’s over.”

Dalton had a horrid start that helped Cleveland get a promising early lead. He threw two passes that were picked off by Joe Haden, who ran one of them back 29 yards for a touchdown and a 13-0 lead in the first quarter.

When the quarter ended, Cleveland fell apart.

Dalton threw touch-

down passes of 25 yards to Jermaine Gresham and 6 yards to Mohamed Sanu, emerging from his recent funk. He has thrown eight interceptions in his last three games, a major factor in the two overtime losses.

The Bengals were just getting started on the highest-scoring quarter in their history.

Undrafted rookie Jayson DiManche blocked Spencer Lanning’s punt and safety Tony Dye — promoted from the practice squad one day earlier — returned it 24 yards for a touchdown.

Cleveland hadn’t had a punt blocked in 20 years.

“It was surreal,” Dye David Kohl | AP said. “You never expect that to happen in a game, Cincinnati Bengals outside linebacker Vontaze Burfict (55) knocks the ball loose from Cleveland let alone your first game.” Browns running back Chris Ogbonnaya in the first half of an NFL football game on Sunday in More surreal to come.

from there.

“We still had a first down at the 32,” Roll said. “That block probably sprung the play, so I don’t know that you can say we had a touchdown. We just weren’t able to execute from there.”

On Triad’s next possession, Skylar Brown tackled Triad punter Scottie Instine in the backfield at midfield with 4:55 left, but again Lehman could not take advantage.

The Cavaliers could move the ball only one-yard on four plays, turning it over on downs and Triad ran out the clock from there.

“You have to give Triad credit,” Roll said. “They made the plays when they needed to.”

On a windy night that made throwing the ball difficult, neither team moved the ball in the first half, with a total of just nine first downs between them.

Ironically, a Lehman created the Cavaliers best opportunity to score.

After a diving interception by Kris Lee of a deflected pass, Lehman had to punt from the Cardinals 45.

Triad roughed Rourke on the punt and added to that penalty with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty arguing the call.

The two personal fouls gave Lehman a first down at the Triad 15.

But, the Cavaliers could move the ball only four yards on four plays, turning it over on downs.

“You have to be able to take advantage of that and we couldn’t do it,” Roll said.

Late in the half, Triad put its best drive of the game to that point together.

Starting at its own 32, Lowe hit Andrew Zirkle on a 25-yard pass and found Zach McConnell two plays later for 33 yards to the Lehman 10.

The Cavaliers defense was up to the challenge again — with Stephan Monnin intercepting a pass inside the 5-yard line with less than a minute on the clock — and Lehman took a knee to complete a scoreless half.

That led to one final half — and a fourth quarter where Lehman was its own worst enemy.

Spearman led the

Lehman offense with 64 yards on 13 carries, while Rourke had 48 on 13 carries.

The Cavaliers had just 80 yards passing on 26 attempts, completing 13 with two interceptions.

Triad had just 55 yards rushing in the game, but Lowe completed 14 of 31 passes for 195 yards with two interceptions.

Feasel had eight catches for 82 yards, while McConnell had two catches for 60 yards.

The Cavaliers closed the season at 10-2, with 10 straight victories in between bookend losses.

“At the start of the year, we thought our punting game would be an Achilles heel and we thought our defense would be terrible,” Roll said. “They both ended being pretty good.

We know we exceeded our expectations this year.”

And while the positives far outweighed the negatives — which is something the Cavaliers can draw on — it didn’t make it any easier to accept the painful moments of the season ending.

Bucks win big, but not satisfied

Jim Naveau

jnaveau@limanews.com

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. – They scored 60 points.

They tied the school record for most consecutive football wins at 22.

They came within one more first down of rolling up 600 yards of offense for the fifth time this season.

And yet Ohio State wasn’t satisfied with its 60-35 win over Illinois on Saturday. Not even close.

Neither was coach Urban Meyer.

“We won 60-35 and everybody had their heads down like we just let one go,” senior wide receiver Corey Brown said..

“No one was happy with that win. We could have played way better.

It was a sloppy game.

The score didn’t look as close as the game was,” he said. “We know we can get a lot better.”

No. 3 Ohio State (100, 6-0 Big Ten) appeared light years better than Illinois (3-7, 0-6 Big Ten) when it jumped out to a 28-0 lead early in the second quarter.

But when Illinois, which has lost 20 Big Ten games in a row, cut the lead to 35-21 three minutes into the second half, OSU felt the game change. If there were any thoughts about style points, they abruptly disappeared.

“We came out strong and then we hit a wall,” running back Carlos

Hyde said. “Late in the game we started clicking, but we can’t hit that wall.

“A win is a win but I’m not pleased with the way we performed today. We need to play our game no matter who our opponent is,” he said.

The final brick Illinois was able to put in the wall was a 4-yard touchdown run by Josh Ferguson that got the Illini to within 12 points, 47-35, 8:49 left in the game.

But Hyde delivered two knockout punches in less than two minutes late in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach.

Hyde led Ohio State with 246 yards on 24 carries and scored five touchdowns, including a receiving TD. Two of those scores and 106 of his rushing yards came on his final two carries.

He went 51 yards for a touchdown with 4:03 to play, then came back with a 55-yard run with 2:09 to play to give OSU a 60-35 lead.

Quarterback Braxton Miller added 184 yards rushing on 16 carries on a day when he struggled passing the ball (13 of 29 for 150 yards, 2 TDs).

“We went back to the basics a little bit because our passing game wasn’t really working,” Miller said. “It wasn’t one of our pretty games but we got done with it.”

Going back to the basics produced 441 yards rushing for the Buckeyes, which probably shouldn’t be a surprise

since Illinois’ defense surrendered 371 yards rushing to Indiana last week and 250 to Penn State the game before that.

Ohio State was at less than full strength offensively and defensively.

Offensive tackle Jack Mewhort was in and out of the lineup because of a hyper-extended knee he suffered during practice on Wednesday.

Two of the starting linebackers – Curtis Grant and Joshua Perry – were also not in uniform because of injuries. Grant had a sprained ankle and a lower back problem and Perry slipped on some ice and hit his head on Tuesday.

And after freshman defensive lineman Joey Bosa had 2.5 sacks in the first half, he had to leave the game early in the third quarter with a neck sprain.

Meyer said his strongest message this week Jeff Haynes|AP will be that OSU needs to Ohio State running back Carlos Hyde (34) stiff arms Illinois defensive back Jaylen Dunlap (28) as he focus on what it is doing runs 51-yards for a touchdown during the second half of an NCAA college football game on Saturday and not worry about out- in Champaign, Ill.
