Farm Bill negotiations begin Heather Meade
Staff Writer hmeade@civitasmedia.com
DARKE COUNTY – Last week the Farm Bill entered formal negotiations in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. The nearly $97 billion bill entered Congress in early 2012, but the 2008 version was extended to September 2013 while Congress dealt with the Fiscal Cliff. In opening remarks on Oct. 30, Rep. Frank D. Lucas (R-Oklahoma), said that the goal of the committee is the creation of a policy that will keep in mind the best interests of the agricultural community, consumers and those who have fallen on hard times. “The work of the Agriculture Committee, including reauthorizing the Farm Bill, affects every American; ensuring that our farmers and ranchers have the tools they need to produce an abundant and affordable food and fiber supply is as important to our coun-
try as national defense,” - Chairman Frank D. Lucas, is what’s posted on the Agriculture Committee’s website (agriculture.house.gov/ farmbill ) There are 15 areas to the Farm Bill, and it covers $97 billion a year, or 2 percent of total federal spending, but it affects every American, according to agriculture.house. gov. The first area, or Title I, is a safety net for commodities farmers according to agriculture.house. gov. Title II deals with conservation practices, encouraging farmers to use sustainable practices to preserve water, air and soil health. Title III deals with agricultural exports and providing food assistance internationally. Title IV deals with nutrition assistance programs that help American families who are having a tough time getting food on the table. A report from the Associated Press stated that nearly 80 percent of the $97 billion goes towards nutritional assis-
tance programs; though cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, previously food stamps) could save up to $5.2 billion a year if the committee goes with the House’s version of the bill. Title V, which Congress would like to phase out entirely, according to a report from the Associated Press, is direct payments to farmers. “Cuts in direct payments would negatively affect farmers if grain prices drop below prices set in the bill. The payments protect farmers when prices are low,” said Sam Custer, OSU Extension agriculture and natural resources educator. “I believe most farmers know and have been preparing for cuts in their programs.” Currently, the program pays out nearly $5 billion each year; the savings gained from nixing this program would be split among other programs, however. The Senate would like to immediately do away with the pro-

GREENVILLE - Damian M. King, 34, of Greenville will spend the next 60 days in jail after he was sentenced Thursday morning in the Darke King County Court of Common Pleas. King pleaded guilty in October to one count of Drug Trafficking, a felony of the fourth degree, stemming from a drug roundup in August involving several Greenville men. Judge Jonathan P. Hein sentenced King to 90 days in jail with 30 days credit. He is also ordered to successfully complete the MonDay Program, if accepted, along with 80 hours of community service and up to 60 months of probation. Defense attorney Michael A. Rieman represented King, while Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Deborah S. Quigley handled the case for the state.
GREENVILLE - After volunteering at Heartland of Greenville for 30 years, Wilma Strait has decided she is going to slow down. She will be at one more craft class at the local nursing facility in December and then she is calling it quits. “I hate to, but I feel like it’s time in more ways than one,” said Strait, who is also involved in her church, Ansonia United Methodist. “I’ve enjoyed this, and I enjoy the people here.” Strait has been coming to the nursing home once a month to help residents make crafts for many of those years. When she first started volunteering in the early 1980s, she started out with the United Methodist Women calling and helping with bingo for the residents at

Heartland. “After they quit that, I asked them where else I could work and I’ve been doing crafts ever since,” Strait said. “It’s amazing how Wilma volunteered all these years,” said Rosemary Nelson, activity director at Heartland. “She has been faithful, faithful, faithful all through the years…and to see all of the dedication
she has given. Residents consider her their friend. Not everybody can develop a rapport with people who have disabilities and all kinds of health problems and she’s done well with that.” At church, Strait has taught Sunday school, been involved with Bible school and has worked at the weekly community meals the church provides, a program that was started eight or nine years ago. “I’ve taught Sunday school ever since my boys went to preschool at church, probably 48 years,” she said. “I taught preschool, then taught junior high and now adults.” She estimates she’s taught Bible school for 45 years and was in charge of it many times. With the United Methodist Women, she has been president she See PILLAR | Page 2

gram, while the House wants to phase it out over two years to give some relief to farmers who rely on it, an AP report stated. Title VI funds loan and grant programs to promote vibrant rural communities, while Title VII funds research and educational programs to help farmers produce more using less. Title VIII deals with the nation’s forest management programs. Title IX helps create jobs and markets in rural America through the development of renewable fuels. Title X supports production of specialty crops, while Title XII deals with crop insurance and disaster relief for America’s farmers. “Crop insurance is vital for the farmer just as home and car insurance is for all of us. It protects against things they cannot control. Therefore if that program is subsidized at a higher level it would continue to protect our farmers,” Custer noted. Other measures include
trying to keep dairy prices stabilized, which Custer said will prevent producers from expanding their herds, and may drive milk prices even higher. Congress would also increase target prices for some crops, and while many of these programs haven’t been used in several years because of high crop prices, these subsidies exist as a safety net, the Associated Press reported. “It is critical that farmers have all the tools necessary to help them produce the commodities needed to feed the world,” Custer explained. “Older, well established farmers can probably handle cuts to the farm bill better than the young person just getting established. They are the ones that need the protection the most.” According to the House Committee on Agriculture, nearly $40 billion will be cut from farm bill spending, nearly 100 programs removed, and consolidating other programs to save taxpayers money.

Senate OKs gay rights bill banning discrimination Donna Cassata WASHINGTON (AP) — Reflecting Americans’ increasing acceptance of gays, the Senate on Thursday approved legislation that would bar workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Gay rights advocates hailed the bipartisan, 64-32 vote as an historic step although it could prove short-lived. A foe of the bill, Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has signaled that the Republican-led House is unlikely to even vote. Seventeen years after a similar anti-discrimination measure failed by one vote, 54 members of the Senate Democratic majority and 10 Republicans voted for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. It is the first major gay rights bill since Congress repealed the ban on gays serving openly in the military three years ago. “All Americans deserve a fair opportunity to pursue the American dream,” said Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a chief sponsor of the bill. Proponents cast the effort as Congress following the lead of business and localities as some 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies and 22 states have outlawed employment discrimination against gay, bisexual and transgender Americans. Supporters described it as
the final step in a long congressional fight against discrimination, coming nearly 50 years after enactment of the Civil Rights Act and 23 years after the Americans with Disabilities Act. “Now we’ve finished the trilogy,” said Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, a chief sponsor of the disabilities law, at a Capitol Hill news conference. Two Republican senators who voted against anti-discrimination legislation in 1996, Arizona’s John McCain, the presidential nominee in 2008, and Orrin Hatch of Utah, backed the measure this time. Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski voted in favor; her father, Frank, opposed a similar bill nearly two decades ago, underscoring the generational shift. “Let the bells of freedom ring,” said Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., who took the lead on the legislation from the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass. Senate passage came in a momentous year for gay rights advocates. The Supreme Court in June granted federal benefits to legally married samesex couples, though it avoided a sweeping ruling that would have paved the way for samesex unions nationwide. Illinois is on the verge of becoming the 15th state to legalize gay marriage along with the District of Columbia. A Pew Research survey
in June found that more Americans said homosexuality should be accepted rather than discouraged by society by a margin of 60 percent to 31 percent. Opinions were more evenly divided 10 years ago. In the House, Boehner has maintained his longstanding opposition despite pleas from national Republicans for the GOP to broaden its appeal to a fast-changing demographic. Boehner argues that the bill is unnecessary and would touch off costly, meritless lawsuits for businesses. President Barack Obama and Democrats used the progressive legislation piling up in the House as a cudgel on the GOP, with the gay rights bill likely to join the stalled measure to overhaul the immigration system. Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said if the House fails to act, “they’ll be sending their party straight to oblivion.” Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois reminded Boehner of the history of his party in the 1880s over the issue of slavery and Abraham Lincoln’s life work. “Keep that proud Republican tradition alive,” Durbin said. Obama, in a statement, said “one party in one house of Congress should not stand in the way of millions of Americans who want to go to work each day and simply be judged by the job they do.”
Gay rights advocates reminded Obama that he could act unilaterally and issue an executive order barring antigay workplace discrimination by federal contractors. Chad Griffin, the president of the Human Rights Campaign, said Obama is empowered to act and called on him to sign the executive order. One possible option exists for proponents, adding the gay rights bill to the annual defense policy bill that the Senate will consider later this month and force the House to reject the popular legislation. Through three days of Senate debate, opponents of the legislation remained mute, with no lawmaker speaking out. That changed on Thursday, as Republican Sen. Dan Coats of Indiana said the legislation would force employers to violate their religious beliefs. “There’s two types of discrimination here we’re dealing with, and one of those goes to the very fundamental right granted to every American through our Constitution, a cherished value of freedom of expression and religion,” Coats said. Current federal law prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, race and national origin. But it doesn’t stop an employer from firing or refusing to hire workers because they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.
The bill would bar employers with 15 or more workers from using a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity as the basis for making employment decisions, including hiring, firing, compensation or promotion. It would exempt religious institutions and the military. The Senate approved an amendment from Republican Sens. Rob Portman of Ohio and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire that would prevent federal, state and local governments from retaliating against religious groups that are exempt from the law. The Senate rejected an amendment sponsored by Republican Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania that would have expanded the number of groups that are covered under the religious exemption. Portman, Ayotte and Toomey voted for the legislation. The first openly gay senator, Democrat Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin, called the vote a “tremendous milestone” that she will always remember throughout her time in the Senate. Sens. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., John Barrasso, R-Wyo., and Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., did not vote. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., a supporter of the bill, said his wife underwent heart surgery this week and he was unable to make the vote.
Youngstown Drone access to US skies faces significant hurdles defeats fracking ban Joan Lowy
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (AP) — Voters in Youngstown have rejected a fracking ban in the city for a second time this year. Opponents of the drilling process known as hydraulic fracturing — or fracking — failed again in trying to ban it in the northeastern Ohio city. But they say they’ll be back for a third try next year. The (Youngstown) Vindicator (http://bit.ly/ HyWcB4 ) reports that in May, the anti-fracking charter amendment failed by 13.7 percentage points. On Tuesday it failed by 9.7 percentage points, according to unofficial results. The United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 396 spent more than $74,000 trying to defeat the amendment. The union called it a job-killer. Fracking opponents say the drilling process harms the environment.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Facing significant hurdles, widespread drone access to U.S. skies will take longer than Congress had anticipated under a five-year roadmap for regulating unmanned aircraft released Thursday. For the next several years, use of drones will be limited to permits granted case by case by the Federal Aviation Administration to operators who agree to procedures to reduce safety risks, the agency said. Last year, Congress directed the FAA to grant drones access to U.S. skies by September 2015. But the agency already has missed several key milestones. The roadmap released Thursday had been due last February. Regulations providing for the safe integration of drones weighing less than 55 pounds were expected more than a year ago, but have repeatedly been delayed. The selection of six
drone test sites around the country is also more than a year overdue. FAA Administrator Michael Huerta said Thursday the agency’s goal is to meet the 2015 deadline, but he appeared to narrow the definition of what it means to integrate drones into the national airspace. “To me what that means is demonstrating what safe integration looks like, what its characteristics are, and to have a framework in place and some initial work actually ongoing in that area,” he told a forum hosted by the Aerospace Industries Association, which represents many companies that make drones. Among the concerns are whether remotely controlled drones will be able to detect and avoid other aircraft as well as planes with pilots on board. There are also security concerns, including whether drones’ navigation controls can be hacked or disrupted.
“Government and industry face significant challenges as unmanned aircraft move into the aviation mainstream,” Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said in a statement. The roadmap has one big gap: privacy, one of the most widespread concerns associated with drones. It only addresses privacy related to the use of drones at the six test sites, which have not yet been selected. Test site operators must have a publicly available privacy plan that explains what data will be gathered and retained, and abide by state and federal privacy laws. The plan must be reviewed annually with opportunity for public comment. Data gathered from testing at the six sites will feed into an interagency group looking at privacy and other drone-related issues that includes the FAA, the Homeland Security Department and the Justice Department, among other agencies,
Huerta said. Beyond that, the agency said, privacy isn’t within its purview. “The FAA’s mission does not extend to regulating privacy, but we have taken steps to address privacy as it relates to the six … test sites,” the agency said in response to questions from The Associated Press. FAA officials have long contended that, as a safety agency steeped in technology, they have little expertise on addressing broad public privacy worries. Still, the FAA has taken “an important step” through privacy standards for the six test sites, said Christopher Calabrese, legislative counsel with the American Civil Liberties Union. “However, it’s crucial that as we move forward with drone use, those procedural protections are followed by concrete restrictions on how data from drones can be used and how long it can be stored,”
he said. “Congress must also weigh in on areas outside of the FAA’s authority, such as use by law enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security, which have the ability to use drones for invasive surveillance that must be kept in check.” The FAA estimates that within five years of being granted widespread access, roughly 7,500 commercial drones, many of them smaller than a backpack, will be buzzing across U.S. skies. Industry-local government consortiums around the country are competing fiercely to be selected for one of the test sites. The FAA has received 25 applications from groups in 26 states, Huerta said. The Teal Group, an industry forecaster in Fairfax, Va., estimates worldwide annual spending on drone research, development, testing, and evaluation procurement will increase from $6.6 billion in 2013 to $11.4 billion in 2022.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Regulators say three of Ohio’s four casinos saw revenue increases last month. Data released Thursday by the Ohio Casino Control Commission shows the Columbus casino saw the biggest increase, from $15.7 million in September to $17.7 million last month. That’s a nearly 13 percent increase. Cleveland’s revenues increased by about 4 percent to $19.5 million. Toledo saw a much more moderate
increase of 1 percent, to $14.7 million. Cincinnati’s revenues declined by 8 percent to $18.2 million. Statewide, casino revenues totaled $70 million in October, up from $68.9 million in September. The monthly high this year was $84 million in March, boosted by the Cincinnati casino’s opening. The casinos have drawn nearly $688 million so far this year.

Ohio Reading scores stagnant COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — State education leaders point to Ohio’s performance in a national report as evidence that a tough new reading requirement for third-graders is justified. The National Assessment of Educational Progress shows Ohio fourth-graders’ average reading scores were unchanged from 2011 to 2013. Eighth-graders improved by one point. State Superintendent Richard Ross says that shows the importance of Ohio’s Third Grade
Reading Guarantee. It requires holding back third-graders who don’t meet certain reading goals. The “Nation’s Report Card” assessment is given every two years to a sample of fourth- and eighthgraders. Compared with 2011, this year’s report showed average incremental gains in math and reading for both grades of one or two points on a 500point scale. In Ohio, math scores improved by two points among fourth-graders and one point among eighthgraders.

Today’s History Today is Fri., Nov. 8, the 312th day of 2013. There are 53 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 8, 1988, Vice President George H.W. Bush won the presidential election, defeating Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis. On this date: In 1889, Montana became the 41st state. In 1909, the original Boston Opera House first opened with a performance of “La Gioconda” by Amilcare Ponchielli. In 1913, the play “Woyzeck,” by Georg Buchner, had its premiere in Munich, Germany, more than six decades after the playwright’s death. In 1923, Adolf Hitler launched his first attempt at seizing power in Germany with a failed coup in Munich that came to be known as the “BeerHall Putsch.” In 1932, New York Democratic Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt defeated incumbent Republican Herbert Hoover for the presidency. In 1942, Operation Torch, resulting in an Allied victory, began during World War II as U.S. and British forces landed in French North Africa. In 1950, during the Korean War, the first jet plane battle took place as U.S. Air Force Lt. Russell J. Brown shot down a North Korean MiG-15. In 1960, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy defeated Vice President Richard M. Nixon for the presidency. In 1972, the premium cable TV network HBO (Home Box Office) made its debut with a showing of the movie “Sometimes a Great Notion.” In 1980, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., announced that the U.S. space probe Voyager 1 had discovered a 15th moon orbiting the planet Saturn. In 1987, 11 people were killed when an Irish
Guilt by association
Republican Army bomb exploded as crowds gathered in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, for a ceremony honoring Britain’s war dead. In 1994, midterm elections resulted in Republicans winning a majority in the Senate while at the same time gaining control of the House for the first time in 40 years. Ten years ago: A suicide car bombing of a housing complex in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, killed 17 people. Front-runner Howard Dean became the first Democratic presidential candidate ever to reject taxpayer money and avoid the accompanying spending limits, saying he had to act to compete against President Bush’s cash-rich campaign. Five years ago: Indonesia executed three Islamic militants for helping to plan and carry out the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, many of them foreign tourists. An accident on a Russian nuclear submarine undergoing a test in the Sea of Japan asphyxiated 20 people on board. Florence Wald, a former Yale nursing dean whose interest in compassionate care led her to launch the first U.S. hospice program, died in Branford, Conn. at age 91. One year ago: Wall Street saw stocks fall sharply for a second straight day as investors worried about the potential for gridlock in Washington. The Dow Jones industrial average lost 121 points, a day after plunging 313 points. The Congressional Budget Office warned that failing to avoid the “fiscal cliff” of tax increases and spending could send the economy back into recession and push the unemployment rate up to 9.1 percent. Jared Loughner was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the January 2011 shootings in Tucson, Ariz. that killed six people and wounded 13 others including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz.
My mother continually attempted to instill in me the concept of “guilt by association”, yet I never seemed to acquiesce to her advisement. I always understood her concerns. I’m sure she felt I was impressionable and I agree, but I, like everyone have innate values. Therefore I never accepted someone’s values, behaviors or habits to become mine, unless of course it was cursing. (It seems language, good or bad readily clings to me.) I’m no different than any other person, doing a few things right and the majority of things wrong. Therefore I have a difficult time understanding the need for any of us to judge or be judged by the friends we keep. Who among us has reached perfection declaring themselves capable of pointing out the flaws of others? For if one truly had reached perfection our flaws would no longer be seen by them. I’ve seen individuals work hard to get into a certain social circle for stature, or some other benefit(s) that can be derived from the association. Some politicians exhibit the ability of befriending persons of influence. Although I’m not a social climber I understand the concept of surrounding oneself with people who have something to offer. Since each one of us is driven by different aspirations our friends likely reflect that ambition. I figure friends should be supportive and have the ability to raise us up, but I also believe I must do the same in order to be called a friend. Personally I like my friends to mentor me in life. I want to grow in wisdom, tolerance, and love. Therefore I feel everyone I come in contact with is a potential friend. Every acquaintance creates an
experience from which I can learn, sometimes the lesson is sweet and sometimes not, but irregardless a lesson has been imparted. All of life’s experiences are learning lessons and each of us have had different lessons in life, so the melding of such experiences, shared in a friendship should increase our wisdom since wisdom is knowledge that is gained by having many experiences. Upcoming Events: Tonight, Jim Short, aka “Shimers” hosts Tiger Sports Trivia at the Bunker starting at 8:30 pm. Sunday,the Versailles Museum (VAHS) invites everyone to attend their special Veteran’s Day Remembrance program which starts at 2 p.m. Next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the VHS Drama Club performs the nonmusical show “Beauty and the Beast in the Performing Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Next Friday and Saturday the village welcomes the Hometown Christmas Celebration, featuring carriage rides, shopping, caroling and socializing.

People’s Voice Injection wells in Darke County Bob Rhoades Sometimes one has to wait to see what nuts fall out of the tree on the injection matter. They may not have all fallen yet, but here are some thoughts. A few years ago, because of my job, I had to attend a Ground Water class at EPA School in Cincy. Over the course of a couple years, this turned into about three classes. I learned a lot about monitoring the underground and probably forgot more than I remember. Leaking underground storage tanks clouded our aquifers for years. In 1998 laws were put into effect that fixed that problem, cleaned up our underground streams and hopefully corrected our lack of concern for our own existence since Henry Ford put the first auto on t+he road. The bottom line is this. We’ve pretty much scarred the earth by every means the human mind can think of. We fixed a lot of the problems. Here in Darke County, one of our legacies is that
the earth was scarred by what became a global company, American Aggregates. The scarring of the earth by removing the generous deposits of gravel we had that was needed to build this great county and nation was monitored by one man, Fred Coppock president of AmAg. One man with some common sense! Fred’s motto was “we will never scar the earth!” He ingrained that into his employees. One of the first gravel pits in the area was the Alter of Peace in Greenville City Park. It was reclaimed by the company to commemorate and serve the community. Another is the Village of Wayne Lakes which was called Wayne Lakes Park after being reclaimed. It is now a village and an asset to the county. Since we live in a county that has had such high standards placed on it by our predecessors in regards to top of the earth, it makes little sense to “scar” what
is beneath the earth. If there is the very slimmest of a chance that our ground water could be compromised it is a non-issue. It cannot and should not be even considered. Just as underground storage tanks were out of sight, it didn’t take long to find out they would not be out of mind. A few years back a similar debate took place on whether we should allow CO2 to be injected into the earth below us. I wondered at the time why in the world we would want that when it could be captured and used. Finally someone with the wherewithal to do something about it did just that and now we have another industry in Darke County. The mixture that is used in the fracking process must end in a similar fashion. This county feeds the nation! We can’t allow our own existence the possibility of being poisoned. It seems that Basic Environmental Law
comes into play here. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations state that if you make a mess you clean it up, not take it somewhere else and make another mess with it! The very fact that anyone would try to make this a partisan issue shows that few can keep a clear focus on the real problem. The debate should be only about the stewardship we have with this great planet we live on and certainly not on whether a proponent of either side of fracking is a Democrat or a Republican. There is enough of that crap in Washington DC and apparently some in Columbus. We allowed one man to tell us that bringing sexual offenders into our county for rehab was a good thing. We probably don’t need any more of someone else’s problems brought here for us to deal with. Robert Rhoades is a citizen columnist and can be reached via email at badge1@live. com.

Reflections Editor: For the past three years I have spent countless hours and many dollars researching my family history and genealogy. My ancestors experienced hard times from their very beginning in Scotland to my father’s generation. In my early childhood, life was still a struggle just to survive the everyday rigors of life. In my opinion, this American society, in the last half of this twentieth century has become lazy, wimpish, mor-
ally unfit and poisoned my materialistic greed. Every generation seems to have the attitude their offspring should have it easier and better than they did. Well folks, it is about time to wake up to the fact that we are about to run out of “easier and better.” I am very positive that the twenty-first century will bring some of the most catastrophic economical changes ever experienced in this country. Violence and anarchy is already rear-
ing up its ugly head in our over-pampered youth of today. The handwriting on the wall stands out like a sore thumb. As I reflect my thoughts back over the last two and one-half centuries, I have this strong feeling of shame and betrayal for the millions of brave fighting men who sacrificed their lives to secure and protect a counrty that is making a mockery of what they fought for. They never had the opportunity to live a
full life and enjoy the many advantages we take for granted. Most of the greedy materialistic “Big Business” pigs who try to monopolize this country should be making daily trips to military grave markers, getting down on their knees and giving thanks to the ones who made it possible for them to live in luxury and be able to waste our Godgiven natural resources at their own free will.

Holiday Mail for Heroes card-making set for Nov. 22 DARKE COUNTY - Again this year, the American Red Cross is holding its Holiday Mail for Heroes program, meaning that Darke Countians who wish to send a holiday card to a service member can easily do so with the help of the Red Cross. Until Dec. 6, Americans can express their gratitude and best wishes for the holiday season to those who give the ultimate gift to our country. Service members, veterans and their families will receive cards across the country and around the world. “It just takes a moment to sign a card to share your appreciation for the sacrifices members of the military community make,” said Lynne Gump, executive director, Darke County Chapter, “You say thanks, and we’ll do the rest.” The Red Cross invites the public to send messages of thanks and holiday cheer by mailing them to: Holiday Mail for Heroes, P.O. Box 5456, Capitol Heights, MD 20791-5456 Red Cross volunteers across the United States and on military installations overseas sort and deliver the cards throughout the holiday season. The Red Cross has received and distributed more than 6.5 million cards for members of the U.S. Armed Forces, veterans and their families since the program began in 2006. In celebration of the program this year, the
Darke County Red Cross will be holding a card making events on Nov. 22 at the chapter office as well as signing events on Nov. 22 and 29 at area businesses and before the Holiday Parade on Nov. 23. Additionally, Darke County residents can stop by the chapter office on Martz Street to sign a card, as well as donate cards to be used or craft supplies for card-making parties; items such as card stock, holiday stickers, holiday scrapbooking sheets. The chapter is also recruiting volunteers to help distribute cards to military members and veterans in the community around the holidays as well as volunteers to staff card signing events. To ensure that cards are delivered in time for the holidays, they must be postmarked no later than Dec. 6. More information and card requirements can be found at redcross. org/holidaymail. The Red Cross relies on the support of the American people to carry out its mission of service to the 2 million members of the U.S. Armed Forces, 24 million veterans and their families. During this holiday season, the public can also support all Red Cross services by making a financial donation at redcross.org or by calling 800-REDCROSS. Individuals can also give the gift of life by making an appointment to give blood at redcrossblood.org or by calling 800-REDCROSS.
Ohio museum plans public events for WWII heroes
Dan Sewell
CINCINNATI (AP) — Military and history buffs will be able to watch online as surviving Doolittle Raiders make a final toast Saturday to comrades who died in or since their World War II bombing attack on Japan. The Air Force plans to live-stream the annual ceremony at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, near Dayton. There will also be news coverage of what traditionally has been a private gathering. Public events ahead of the invitation-only ceremony include a gathering to greet the Raiders as they arrive, a memorial service, a B-25 bomber flyover and movies such as the “Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo” depiction of the 1942 mission. Only four of the 80 Raiders are still alive, and one isn’t able to travel. For decades, the Raiders have offered a toast “to those who have gone” with specially engraved silver goblets at their annual reunions. After Maj. Thomas Griffin of Cincinnati died in February at age 96, the survivors decided that this year’s annual April reunion would be the last and that they would gather for one last toast the weekend before Veterans Day. “I’m looking forward to it,” said David Thatcher,
92, of Missoula, Mont. His wife, children and other relatives will accompany him, he said by telephone this week. He said he can’t predict the emotions he’ll feel at the toast ceremony. “I don’t have any idea what it will be like until we’re there,” said Thatcher, an engineergunner on the mission. The toast grew from reunions led by Lt. Col. James “Jimmy” Doolittle, who commanded the daring mission credited with boosting American morale and shaking the Japanese after a string of military successes. Lt. Col. Richard Cole, Doolittle’s co-pilot, plans to come to the ceremony from Comfort, Texas, while Lt. Col. Edward Saylor is expected from Puyallup, Wash. Lt. Col. Robert Hite of Nashville, Tenn., 93, who was captured by the Japanese after the attack, won’t be able to attend because of health problems but hopes to watch at home, a museum spokesman said. The goblets, presented to the Raiders in 1959 by the city of Tucson, Ariz., have the Raiders’ names engraved twice, the second upside-down. During the ceremony, white-gloved cadets pour cognac into the participants’ goblets. Those of the deceased are turned upside-down.

the scene in the 1930’s. George Gershwin produced his jazz concerto Rhapsody in Blue and his opera Porgy and Bess, deepening the American vernacular. Duke Ellington wrote and played songs that he believed were beyond category, encompassing all musical forms, serving as art, entertainment, and something to dance to. Classical composers Charles Ives and Aaron Copland contributed to this ongoing evolution that emulates a family tree with broad roots and ever-expanding growing branches - and the evolution continues with the WingWalker performance in Greenville next Thursday. So this is as close as I can get to a description of what you’ll hear at the Coffeehouse show – an unpredictable blend of music firmly rooted in American soil, speaking to American history and values, joyfully played by skilled musicians who fearlessly seek new frontiers to explore and conquer. You won’t be able to sit still, you will not stop smiling, you will have a good time. Now that sounds exciting (kind of like watching a wing walker!) You can reserve your tickets to the show by contacting DCCA at 937-547-0908 or dcca@centerforarts.net, or purchase tickets online at www.centerforarts.net and at The Coffee Pot the night of the show. Showtime is 7 p.m. Marilyn Delk is a Director of the Darke County Center for the Arts and can be reached at marilynd@bright.net.

Your Individual Horoscope FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2013 Make wise choices in the year ahead. Use your talents and skills to the fullest. You have much to gain if you are persistent. The things you learn through others will give you enough courage and confidence to follow your dreams. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — You’ll have an idea for a cultural or philosophical change while traveling or dealing with people from different backgrounds. Share your thoughts with others, and the insight you get will alter your future. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It’s a good time to make personal changes, but don’t try to get others to follow suit. Leave well enough alone when dealing with friends or family. Interfering in other people’s lives will backfire. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Put on a happy face, and you’ll charm even your most difficult opponent. Your knowledge and innovative approach to matters will capture attention in powerful quarters. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Keep your goals in view. The less you discuss your plans, the easier it will be to avoid interference. Your perspective on things is sound, and you should trust it. A change in the way you feel about someone is likely. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — You’ll be tempted to use unusual tactics to get what you want, but you need to be sure of things before you do so. Your intuition will help you figure out what to do and who to trust. A financial dispute will be settled in your favor. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Listen carefully to what others are saying and observe the way people react to you. Don’t make abrupt changes that could cause an emotional situation to spin out of control. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Contribute to a group or organization that can help further your position. Networking and sharing information will lead to a collaborative relationship with someone special. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You should pursue your personal needs without forcing your will on others. Keeping the peace will allow you the freedom to reach your goals. Take care of a debt that may hamper your success. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Relationships will play a major role in the near future. Nurture the connections that you feel have the most to offer. It’s time to weed out those who hold you back. Romance is highlighted. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Keep a watchful eye on the people most likely to take advantage of you. Problems at home will require you to make a much-needed change. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Show everyone how much fun you can have. Participate in activities that will help you form closer bonds. Social plans that focus on exploring new interests should be put in motion. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Do what’s expected of you and keep moving. Making a fuss or letting your emotions affect your productivity will be your downfall. Adjust to whatever situation you face with goodnatured grace. COPYRIGHT 2013 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.

Versailles striving for its 1st volleyball state championship Kyle Shaner Sports Editor
VERSAILLES — More than a dozen state championship banners adorn the walls of Versailles’ high school gymnasium. This year’s Versailles volleyball team hopes to leave its mark on the school and add another banner to the collection, which would be the first of its kind. “With all the support and stuff from our community, it’s something we’ve always wanted,” senior Brett Bey said. “It’d be nice to have a banner of our own up there.” Versailles has won 14 state championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football and track and field — which doesn’t even include the individual state titles from athletes in bowling, cross country and track and field — but the school has never won a state title in volleyball. The Lady Tigers intend to change that this weekend. “Beginning of the season, that was one of our goals, was advancing to state, qualifying for state,” Versailles volleyball coach Karla Frilling said. “And as our season has progressed, that goal has obviously progressed with it. We’re there. We’re going to state. Now the goal is to come home with the title.” Versailles will play in the Ohio High School Athletic Association’s Division III state tournament with a state semifinal matchup against Upper Sandusky at noon today at Wright State University’s Ervin J. Nutter Center. The winner of that match will advance to play for the Division III state championship against either West Lafayette Ridgewood or Gates Mills Gilmour Academy at 3 p.m. Saturday.
“We’ve been personally working for this the whole season, like it’s been one of our goals since day one,” senior Kayla McEldowney said. But the Lady Tigers’ dreams of making it to the state tournament go back beyond this season. Versailles only had one senior volleyball player for both the 2011 and 2012 seasons, so this year’s players — which include six seniors, six juniors and three sophomores — have played a lot of varsity volleyball during the past few seasons. With that solid core, Versailles has had high expectations, including trips to state, and is starting to fulfill them. “We had so much potential,” senior Olivia Schlater. “It’s finally fun to put it into use and go far.” Even before the girls began their high school careers, they had aspirations of playing at state. The Versailles volleyball team has been in the state tournament three times before — 1988, 2003 and 2008. The current players have some memories of those most recent teams to make state. “We looked up to them so much since they were a lot older and bigger than us,” Schlater said. “And we just dreamed that one day we’d be there, too.” The 2003 team was the state runner up, which is the best showing Versailles has had at the state volleyball tournament. “We always pictured ourselves out there on the floor one day, and it’s finally happening,” McEldowney said. One advantage this year’s team has over the past couple seasons is the amount of leadership on the roster. “It was really nice having a lot more leadership this year because

The Versailles volleyball team will play in the Division III state tournament today. Pictured are (back row, l-r) head coach Karla Frilling, Olivia Schlater, Rachel Kremer, Brett Bey, Amanda Winner, Kayla McEldowney, Kristin Shimp, (middle row, l-r) Janelle Mangen, Christa Puthoff, Lauren Bruns, Taylor Winner, Emily Ruhenkamp, Taylor Stover, (front row, l-r) Lauren Monnin, Aimee Powell and Kristin Langston.
everyone will step up and play like they know how to play,” Schlater said. To get to this point, Versailles had to face a lot of tough competition. The Lady Tigers competed in the Midwest Athletic Conference, which has sent a team to the state volleyball tournament 20 consecutive years. Facing tough competition each week in the MAC has prepared the Lady Tigers for the challenges of the OHSAA tournament. “We go into tournament like thinking that we’re going to play a MAC team, and we just got to lay it all on the line,” McEldowney said. “I think that really gets our mental game up there, like we’ve got to be prepared.” Versailles went 8-1 in MAC play, only losing in a five-set match to Marion Local on Aug. 29. Marion Local, the defending Division IV state champion, went undefeated
in conference play and advanced to the Division IV state tournament this year. Versailles’ only other loss was on Aug. 24 in the Mercer Health Invitational to Leipsic. With both losses coming early in the season, Versailles hasn’t lost in more than two months. “One of our goals has been to be consistent throughout the season, and lately we’ve really been doing that and putting all of our hitters and setters connection together and really getting our defense working more,” Schlater said. The strong play has continued in the postseason as Versailles hasn’t lost a set in tournament play. Among the teams Versailles has swept in the tournament were twotime defending state champion Miami East in the regional semifinal and the Ohio High School Volleyball Coaches Association’s No. 1 ranked team, Highland Sparta, in the regional final.
“I feel like we’re playing smart volleyball right now, like we’re feeding the people who will get us kills and like mixing up our offense a lot,” McEldowney said. “And then defense is just playing their hearts out, getting balls up.” The Lady Tigers have a strong team and have been working well together, Bey said, and have to continue doing that in the state tournament. “We’re finally starting to work together the way we should be,” Bey said. “We just need to keep coming out strong and stay focused on what we’re doing.” Today’s opponent, Upper Sandusky, is similar to Versailles and the teams the Tigers have seen this season, Frilling said. To beat the Rams, the Tigers will have to try to set the pace and stay aggressive, she said. See VOLLEYBALL | 13

Volleyball From page 1 “Get the ball beyond their front line and stay aggressive, work them hard to keep them out of system so they can’t run the offense that they intent to run against us,” Frilling said. “They have a strong offense. They have some height, so they’re going to put up a big block. If we can get it beyond that block and stay aggressive on them, hopefully keep them out of system enough that we can break down their offense a little bit.” Upper Sandusky won the North Central Conference this year for the first time since 1995. The Rams are 25-2 with losses to Elgin and Buckeye Central, a 2012 Division IV state-qualifying team, a loss they later avenged. Not only is this the first trip to the state tournament for the Rams, it is the first time they advanced to the district final and beyond. Uppper Sandusky beat Coldwater, another MAC team, in five sets in the regional final to get to the state tournament. Upper Sandusky has one senior, 6-foot 2-inch middle hitter Taylor Graboski (No. 4), who has committed to play college ball at Valparaiso. She has 355 kills and more than 200 digs plus was first team all-Ohio and the District 6 player of the year. Upper Sandusky has two more girls who are 6 feet 2 inches, sophomore outside hitter Jessi Holly (No. 5) with 308 kills and sophomore middle hitter Molly Owens (No. 9) with 197 kills. Junior middle hitter Kalene Johnson (No. 11) has 167 kills, and junior libero Jenna Holly (No. 3) has more than 1,000 career digs. Versailles has the height and athleticism to match Upper Sandusky. “I don’t know that there’s any disadvantage to having girls that are tall and that can be big blockers and work hard at the net for you,” Frilling said. “And then when you come up against a team that equals your size, matches your size pretty well, it’s nice to know that we have that advantage on our side of the court, also. And so the girls are confident going in. We practice against that in practice against each other all the time so because we can create those match ups in practice and because we’ve gone up against teams throughout our season, we can use those experiences and things that we learned to hopefully break down that same kind of offense and that same kind of defense they’re going to bring against us on Friday.” Versailles has been working hard and has remained focused this week in practice, Frilling said, which included a joint-practice with Marion Local on Monday. Even with all the hard work and preparation, Frilling still expects the team to have some nerves during today’s match. “I don’t think there’s anything I can do that is going to help their nerves,” said Frilling, who was an assistant coach on Marion Local’s 2007 and 2008 state championship teams. “They’re allowed to be a little bit nervous. It’s going to be adrenaline; it’s going to be flowing. I think they just need to get a few balls out of their system probably. I think both side of the court are going to look that way at some point in time. And once these girls settle down and find their rhythm and play for each other as a team, I think we’ll be OK. I’d be surprised if they weren’t a little anxious. As bad as they want it, they are anxious to play. I think once they get a couple contacts and a few balls, they’ll settle down and they’ll get in their groove.” Versailles has accomplished a lot this season, establishing itself as one of the best teams in the state and one of the best teams in school history. But the Lady Tigers don’t want to come home without the state championship. “As always, I’m very proud of them,” Frilling said. “They’ve worked really hard to get where they are today, and they have a very focused goal, and they don’t want to come home until the job is completely done.” kshaner@civitasmedia.com
A guide to the 2013-14 basketball season John Marshall AP Basketball Writer
Talented freshmen are sprinkled all over the country. There’s a high concentration in Kentucky, pockets at Kansas and Arizona, singular stars-in-the-making at other hoops hotbeds. Teams are spread all across new conferences, too. Realignment hit full gear this season, scattering teams like a game of Boggle. It’s going to take half a season just to figure out which 13 teams swapped in and out of the WAC. There also will be plenty of coaches in new places, including one interesting choice to run the show in Westwood and a relocation of Dunk City. Needless to say, it’s going to be an interesting and, likely, unpredictable season in college basketball. To get you ready, here’s a few things to keep an eye on: ___ TOP TEAMS Kentucky. Coach Cal may have outdone even himself with this class of freshmen. Could be another ring-and-done for some of them. Michigan State. Tom Izzo has been a consistent winner in East Lansing. This team could add another title to his resume. Louisville. The defending national champs have a new conference, but the same objective as always. Duke. The Blue Devils are consistent national-title contenders. Fab freshman Jabari Parker could be the ticket to reaching that goal this season.
Kansas. Andrew Wiggins. Watch this guy. Kinda good. So are the Jayhawks. Arizona. The Wildcats have their own fabulous freshman in Aaron Gordon and he may not even be the best player on this loaded team. Michigan. Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. are gone, but the Wolverines still have plenty of talent left from a team that came up just short against Louisville in last year’s national championship game. ___ TOP PLAYERS Doug McDermott, F, Creighton. McDermott will turn 31 in January and is entering his 10th season of college basketball. OK, those are exaggerations — he’s 20 and a senior — but it sure seems like he’s been one of the nation’s best players for a long time. Should be no different this season. Aaron Craft, G, Ohio State. They might make defensive instructional videos based on this guy after he’s done in Columbus. Marcus Smart, G, Oklahoma State. Could have been a lottery pick in the NBA had he come out last season. Will be one of the best players in college basketball this season. Russ Smith, G, Louisville. There’s a reason he’s been called “Russdiculous.” Jahii Carson, G, Arizona State. He is dynamic personified in a 5-foot-10 frame. Carson’s last season in the desert should be a good one. The freshmen: Wiggins of Kansas, Julius Randle and the Harrison twins at Kentucky, Gordon at Arizona and Duke’s Parker.
BEST NONCONFERENCE GAMES Kentucky vs. Michigan State in Chicago, Nov. 12. If their rankings hold, it’ll be the earliest 1-vs.-2 meeting since 1975. Duke vs. Kansas in Chicago, Nov. 12. Not a bad nightcap after Kentucky-Michigan State at the United Center. Louisville at Kentucky, Dec. 28. Always a can’t-miss game. Arizona at Michigan, Dec. 14. Deep, talented teams get a big early test. Kentucky at North Carolina, Dec. 14. Basketball blue bloods meet in the Tar Heel State. Michigan at Duke, Dec. 3. Jabari gets a chance to see how he matches up against Michigan brute Mitch McGary — as long as the sophomore’s balky back holds up. ___ NEW COACHES Steve Alford, UCLA. He wasn’t the most popular choice in Westwood for fans and boosters who wanted a bigger name. The former Indiana star would like nothing more than to prove them wrong. Andy Enfield, Southern California. Dunk City will make its Hollywood debut after he led Florida Gulf Coast on a surprising NCAA tournament run last season. Richard Pitino, Minnesota. Rick’s son tries to right the Gophers after one season at Florida International. Tubby Smith, Texas Tech. The Red Raiders will play in some shootouts in West Texas under the former national champion coach.
Joe Dooley, Florida Gulf Coast. Bill Self’s longtime right-hand man at Kansas gets his first shot at running the show in Dunk City. Eddie Jordan, Rutgers. The longtime college and NBA coach will try to calm the storm after Mike Rice was fired for berating players and AD Tim Pernetti was forced to resign. ___ MID-MAJOR MONSTERS It’s getting to the point where mid-majors are no different than any other program, particularly after Wichita State reached the Final Four last season and Florida Gulf Coast destroyed brackets across the country. Still, it seems worthy to mention some of the best among the nonpower programs. Here’s a few: Wichita State. Shockers got to the Final Four last season, why not again. Virginia Commonwealth. The fast-paced Rams are always a tough out under Shaka Smart. Gonzaga. No mention of midmajors can be without the Zags. Southern Miss. Golden Eagles were disappointed to not get an invite to the Big Dance last season. They’ll have a good chance at getting in this season. La Salle. Explorers reached Sweet 16 last season for their best NCAA tournament since 1955. Florida Gulf Coast. Just so we could get in one more Dunk City reference. ___ Follow John Marshall on Twitter: http://twitter.com/ jmarshallap
Big Ten struggling to fill 8 reserved bowl slots Michael Marot AP Sports Writer
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — No. 4 Ohio State is chasing perfection and a chance play for a national championship. No. 18 Michigan State has the inside track to the Big Ten championship game. Four other conference teams are bowl-eligible and Iowa could join that list with a win this weekend. But with only four weeks left in the regular season, the Big Ten is looking at the possibility of coming up short in postseason play again — even before the bowl lineups are announced. With eight bowl tie-ins, six qualifiers and Iowa on the cusp, the last available spot will have to be filled by one of three teams that are a combined 1-12 in league play: Illinois, Indiana or Northwestern. “I think it’s pretty evident to our guys that our backs are against the wall,” Wildcats coach Pat Fitzgerald said Tuesday. “We’ve had every opportunity to win four out of our last five games and unfortunately we haven’t coached our guys well enough or our guys haven’t executed well enough in games, especially in the fourth quarter, to win. It’s disappointing but with games left ahead of us, we have opportunities and really we just have to coach our guys to play better and if we do that, we’ll be all right.” For the Big Ten, this is not an unusual predicament. The league failed to produce enough bowl-eligible teams to fill its allotment

four times in the last five years and it could happen again. The lone exception during that five-year span came in 2011 when conference officials had to find a bowl game to take the Fighting Illini because there were more bowl-eligible teams from the league available than actual game commitments. A league spokesman wrote in an email to The Associated Press that Commissioner Jim Delany was not available for comment Tuesday because of meeting and his travel schedule. But clearly, this is not how the conference envisioned the final month playing out. “We’re all trying to do that (win six), and we’re all trying to do better than
that,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. “I think we really just try to get our guys focused on the week at hand. I think most coaches do that. That’s what it’s all about, so if you want to be somewhere good at the end of the season, then you have to handle each step along the way. If you do that, the more apt you are to be in a good place at the end.” Most analysts expect the unbeaten Buckeyes and surging Spartans, the league’s two division leaders, to meet in Indianapolis on Dec. 7. The winner would become the first team other than No. 21 Wisconsin to win the Big Ten title game, ending the Badgers’ streak of three consecutive Rose Bowl appearances. The Badgers, peren-
nial powers Michigan and Nebraska and surprising Minnesota all have at least six wins, enough to fill out the New Year’s Day allotment with one team left over for a non-New Year’s Day game — the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, the Texas Bowl or the Little Caesar’s Pizza Bowl. Iowa’s best chance to join the club comes this weekend when it travels to reeling Purdue (5-4, 2-3). But things could get tricky if the Boilermakers end a six-game losing streak. Iowa (5-4, 2-3) would then have to beat either Michigan at home or Nebraska on the road just to qualify. Then there are other three: — Northwestern (4-5, 0-5), once ranked in the top
20, is trying to get healthy during this week’s bye. It needs to win two its last three with home games against Michigan and Michigan State and a trip to Illinois. — The Illini (3-5, 0-4) have lost 18 straight conference games, yet somehow still have a shot. How? If Illinois wins three of its last four — at Indiana, home against Ohio State, at Purdue and at Northwestern — it’s in. — Indiana’s best chance may have evaporated with a fumbled lateral in the final 30 seconds last weekend. That mistake dropped the Hoosiers to 3-5 (1-3), forcing them to win three of their last four — home against Illinois, trips to Wisconsin and Ohio State, and the home finale against Purdue — to reach the sixwin mark. There could be a way out, though it’s a longshot. Last year, the NCAA opened the possibility of putting 5-7 teams in the postseason but only if there weren’t enough qualifiers to fill every bowl slot and then only if a school ranks in the top five of football’s Academic Progress Rate rankings. The Big Ten can’t count on that, putting pressure on virtually every team in the league to keep winning — from division leaders trying to protect their leads to the Big Ten title game hopefuls needing help to the bowl-game hopefuls and even for a team such as Purdue, which is playing spoiler as it tries to avoid its first winless conference season in two decades.
Bengals in control of struggling AFC North Joe Kay
AP Sports Writer
Only one team with a winning record? The Steelers and Ravens bringing up the bottom? What’s up with the AFC North? The NFL’s toughest division is having a tough year all-around. The mainstays are just trying to stay relevant at the midpoint of the season. The Bengals (6-3) are in control of a division that may send only one team to the playoffs for the first time since 2007. “I’ve been used to seeing Pittsburgh and Baltimore so many years at the top of this division,” Bengals safety Chris Crocker said. “Things have really changed. Those teams have gone through transition and so have we. “We got a lot of young talent and just been playing very well. When we do play well we play very, very well.” The rest of the division? Not so well. Cincinnati has a twogame lead and can pretty much scuttle the defending Super Bowl champion Ravens (3-5)
with a victory in Baltimore on Sunday. The Browns (4-5) are having an encouraging season — encouraging simply because they’re not bringing up the rear — while the Steelers (2-6) have taken over the bottom spot by playing as poorly as any Pittsburgh team in the last 25 years. Five things to watch in the AFC North in the second half: MORE THAN ONE? The division has sent 11 teams to the playoffs in the last five years, the most by any division. It’s the only division that has sent at least two each season, including three in 2011. Cincinnati is in good shape to win its first division title since 2009. Can any of the other teams pull themselves together and make a strong run in the second half to give the North more than one playoff team? Last year, the Bengals were 3-5 at the midpoint and won a wild card with a strong finish, joining the Ravens in the postseason. CAN THE BENGALS HOLD ON: The most encouraging part of the Bengals’ resur-
gent season has been the play of third-year quarterback Andy Dalton, who has become a playmaker instead of just a caretaker of the offense. The biggest concern is a defense that’s lost All-Pro tackle Geno Atkins and top cornerback Leon Hall for the rest of the season and middle linebacker Rey Maualuga indefinitely because of injuries. “You’ve done enough to have a lead in the division, but to be honest, this isn’t the end,” left tackle Andrew Whitworth said. “So we’re really not where we want to be until 16 games are over and you’re at the top of your division. We still have a lot to go get and a lot to prove.” HOPEFUL BROWNS: They took a big step back toward relevance with a 24-18 win over the Ravens last Sunday in Cleveland, ending Baltimore’s streak of 11 straight wins in the rivalry. Jason Campbell, the 20th starting quarterback since Cleveland returned as an expansion franchise in 1999, threw three touchdown passes as the Browns pulled into second place, a bit of a rush for a franchise that hasn’t won more
than five games in any of the past five seasons. “We’ve been a kid brother in this division for a long time,” first-year coach Rob Chudzinski said. “You have to go play and if you want to change that, then you have to go do things to change it.” RAVENS IN TROUBLE: Baltimore expected a transition season with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed among those gone from the Super Bowl championship team. Instead, they’ve gotten knocked around. They’re averaging only 71.6 yards per game on the ground, 29th in the league. The offensive line has struggled, Ray Rice has only 259 yards while playing through a hip injury, and Joe Flacco has been hurried on many of his throws. Baltimore needs a strong finish, beginning with its game Sunday against the Bengals, to reach the playoffs for the sixth season in a row. “As far as we are concerned, as it stands, we’re in a tough spot,” coach John Harbaugh said. CURTAINS FOR
THE STEEL CURTAIN: Pittsburgh’s offense has been sapped by injuries since training camp, making it reliant once again on Ben Roethlisberger’s improvisation. The biggest surprise has been the decline of a defense that ranked No. 1 last season but seems to have gotten old quickly. Pittsburgh gave up a franchise-record in points during a 55-31 loss to the Patriots last Sunday. The Steelers have reached the Super Bowl twice in the last five seasons. They’re out of playoff contention halfway through this one, with their loyal fans wondering how low they’ll go. Pittsburgh has had only five losing seasons in the past 25 years. They haven’t won fewer than six games in a season since 1988, when they went 5-11 under Chuck Noll. “We’re here to win,” coach Mike Tomlin said. “That’s our charge, that’s our job, that’s our passion. We’re not getting it done consistently to this point. So, that’s irritating and frustrating.” PREDICTED WINNER: Bengals.

An inside look at Ohio State football
BUCKEYE BRAIN BUSTERS
SAY WHAT?
RECRUITING UPDATE
1. What position did Urban Meyer play in college at Cincinnati? 2. What position did Earle Bruce play in college at Ohio State? 3. What positions did John Cooper play in college at Iowa State? 4. What position did Jim Tressel play in college at Baldwin-Wallace? 5. What position did Woody Hayes play in college at Denison? Answers: 1. Defensive back; 2. Fullback; 3. Quarterback, running back, defensive back; 4. Quarterback; 5. Tackle.
“I’ve got a lot of respect for the other quarterbacks in the league, but I’ve got the two I like.” — Urban Meyer talks about Braxton Miller and Kenny Guiton
Dante Booker (Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary), a 2014 Ohio State verbal commitment as a linebacker, is one of 12 semifinalists for the high school Butkus Award, which is given to the player voted the outstanding linebacker nationally. Raekwon McMillan (Liberty County, Ga.), who Ohio State is pursuing, is also among the semifinalists, along with 2014 OSU verbal commitment Kyle Berger (Cleveland St. Ignatius). Berger has not played this season after suffering a torn ACL in a preseason scrimmage against Canton McKinley. Quarterback Stephen Collier (Lee County, Ga.), a 2014 Ohio State verbal commitment, plans to enroll in January. Chad Mavety (Nassau Community College), a 6-6, 320-pound offensive lineman, has told Ohio State he will take a visit on Nov. 23 when the Buckeyes play Indiana. He visited Florida State last weekend when the Seminoles beat Miami 41-14. He has offers from Ohio State, Alabama, Oklahoma, Florida State, Nebraska and several other big programs. Ohio State and Florida State are his most likely destinations, according to most recruiting followers. Sean Nuernberger (Oldham County, Ky.), a 2014 Ohio State verbal commitment as a kicker, had a tough night, not entirely of his own making, when he went 0 for 4 on field goals last Friday night. Two of his kicks were blocked and there were bad snaps on the other two. Jaylyn Holmes (Norfolk, Va. Lake Taylor), a 2014 Ohio State verbal commitment at defensive end, recovered a fumble in the endzone for a touchdown last Friday. Terry McLaurin (Indianapolis Cathedral), a 2014 OSU verbal commitment as a receiver, caught four passes for 54 yards and rushed for 48 yards last Friday.
Most Electrifying OSU Plays Last 20 Years 6. MICHIGAN 2004 How do you pick just one Ted Ginn Jr. play? His 82-yard punt return for a touchdown in 2004 in a 37-21 upset of No. 7 Michigan might be his most breath-taking. He made two Wolverines miss, then sprinted down the sideline to put a four-loss OSU team in control of the game.
7. MICHIGAN 2005 Anthony Gonzalez said his mom closed her eyes and never saw it. But everyone else saw Gonzalez go high over Michigan’s Grant Mason for a catch with 37 seconds to play that set up the game-winning touchdown in a 26-21 OSU come-from-behind victory. Michigan led 21-12 with 7:49 to play.
8. FIESTA BOWL 2002 After Miami’s Sean Taylor intercepted Craig Krenzel in the end zone early in the third quarter, Maurice Clarett made one of the great hustle plays in OSU history when he chased Taylor down and wrestled the ball out of his hands at Miami’s 28-yard line. Three plays later, Mike Nugent kicked a field goal. Without that, Miami could have won in regulation.
9. MICHIGAN 2001
The Lima News file photos
Ted Ginn Jr. breaks away for an 82-yard punt return for a touchdown against Michigan had tormented Ohio State, winning 10 of the last 13 games. The Michigan in 2004. usually conservative Jim Tressel, in his first season, rolled the dice and went
for it on fourth-and-one at Michigan’s 46-yard line with a 7-0 lead in the first minute of the second quarter. Jonathan Wells made it look like a genius move when he went 46 yards for On the final play of Ohio State’s 31-24 double-overtime win over Miami to a touchdown and the message that things were going to be different in the win the national championship, Cie Grant pressured the Hurricanes’ Kenny OSU-Michigan game was delivered. Dorsey into rushing a fourth down pass into the end zone and Donnie Nickey batted it down to seal the win. 10. MISSOURI 1997 As the play that completed the Buckeyes’ national championship run, it earns the top spot on the list of most electrifying plays of the last 20 years. It was the ultimate Andy Katzenmoyer hit, which took the breath out of the stadium, along with squeezing it out of Missouri quarterback Corby Jones as he scrambled. Katzenmoyer rated it only as one of his top three hits all time. 2. PURDUE 2002 Craig Krenzel’s 37-yard, all-or-nothing fourth down touchdown pass to Everyone else was more impressed.
1. FIESTA BOWL 2002
Michael Jenkins with 1:36 to play to beat Purdue 10-6 is sometimes called the “Holy Buckeye” play. It probably deserves the name since it was a near-miraculous play on an afternoon of futility for OSU’s offense.
3. ROSE BOWL 1996 People might have forgotten how big a deal Ohio State’s first Rose Bowl win in 28 years was because of three trips to national championship games since then. Joe Germaine’s 5-yard pass to David Boston in the final minute of the game for a 20-17 win produced one of the biggest moments of the John Cooper years. It was huge for Cooper because until that point, he was 1-6 in bowl games and 1-7-1 in Michigan games.
4. PENN STATE 2002 Chris Gamble, on the night he became Ohio State’s first two-way starter in 40 years, intercepted a pass and weaved his way through Penn State’s offense for the only touchdown in Ohio State’s 13-7 win.
5.

It was the second of three touchdowns Chris Gamble celebrates with teammates after his pass interception against Penn State in 2002. in five minutes that sent OSU on its way to a 45-26 win.

Big Ten needs an upgrade COLUMBUS — On the day Jim Tressel was introduced as Ohio State’s football coach in 2001, he promised Buckeyes fans they would be proud of their team in 310 days on the football field in Ann Arbor, Mich. Ohio State backed up that bravado in Ann Arbor in 310 days. And except for a hiccup in 2011, OSU has enjoyed an elite level of success under Tressel and Urban Meyer. Unfortunately for Ohio State, the rest of the Big Ten has not come along for the ride. And now the Buckeyes might pay for it. Unless two of the three teams ahead of Ohio State in the BCS rankings lose, it could find itself in the almost unfathomable position of winning 25 straight games and not playing for a national championship. Many factors are in play in the apparent decline of Big Ten football. Recruiting has gone national and many Big Ten schools are unable to recruit nationally. The South and West have grown while Midwestern states have struggled to keep people from leaving as the industrial base and high-paying jobs have departed. But the bottom line is that what the Big Ten has done on the field, especially in high profile games, is probably the biggest reason it is perceived negatively. Since 2000, the Big Ten has a 37-57 record in bowl games, a 39 percent winning percentage. That is the worst among the 11 major conferences. The Big Ten’s only BCS national championship game win was in overtime by Ohio State and OSU was dominated by Florida and LSU in its other trips to the title game. No other Big Ten has played for a BCS title while the SEC has won seven titles in a row. And since 2000, the Pac12 has won seven of the nine games it has played against Big Ten teams in the Rose Bowl . The Big Ten’s reputation is not good. And its one team capable of competing on a national level might pay the price.
