Commish to discuss water treatment plant Bethany J. Royer Staff Writer broyer@dailycall.com

PIQUA — It’s been a while since the new water treatment plant to be located on State Route 66 has been discussed indepth at a commission meeting. The development to be centered on 40 acres, with an estimated construction completion date of May 2016, at the latest.

Constructed in 1925, the current 88-year-old Piqua water treatment plant has posed numerous challenges in terms of its replacement over the years. Whether due to its flood plain location or an inability to meet EPA capacity and standards, along with rehabilitation of the plant having been

eliminated from consideration.

For a time, the city considered a joint venture with the city of Troy, but the age of Troy’s water plant, contract negotiations and water safety concerns nixed the idea.

Though city leaders had stated a regional water plant would have been groundbreaking, popular consensus spoke and Piqua began the first tentative steps towards its own and new water treatment plant.

Which brings us to the next phase, the design of the new plant to be completed by CDM Smith, an engineering, construction and operations firm, at a cost of $2.2 million.

A resolution will be brought before commissioners at Tuesday’s com-

mission meeting regarding payment and none too soon, ground is due to be broken for the plant in early 2014.

Commission will discuss whether or not to authorize the city manager to enter into an Ohio Water Development Authority (OWDA) Fresh Water Loan at an interest rate of 4.24 percent, according to the meeting agenda.

A meeting agenda packet is available at the government complex or via the city’s website and includes the following for Sept. 17: Amendments to sections of the Piqua Code of Ordinances for construction on subdivision improvements Authorizing an agreement with LJB Inc. for right-of-way acquisition

services for the Garnsey and Commercial Street corridor project Approving tax rates for the city as determined by the county budget commission Approving fiber connectivity to varied Power Systems sites and other municipal locations Vacate a public rightof-way The purchase of two Ford police interceptor utility vehicles Appointment of two members to the Stormwater Utility Board Commission meetings are held at 7:30 p.m. every first and third Tuesday of the month, on the second floor of the Government Municipal Complex, in the commission chamber.

The public is invited and encouraged to attend.

PIQUA — A decidedly unusual dream that plagued local teacher Holly McElwee for two years has turned into her first self-published book, a juvenile sci-fi/action story called, “E.V.I.L. vs.

The Freedom Force: The Quest for Mind Control.”

“In my dream, I was running down the beach and giant horseshoe crabs were chasing me. The crabs were really holograms being remote-controlled by evil squirrels, who held remote controls in their little paws as they laughed maniacally,” said McElwee, who teaches sixth-grade science at Wilder Intermediate School.

Upon waking, she found that the dream was so real that she couldn’t shake it from her mind. “I just kept thinking it was such a unique dream and wondering, ‘What can I do with this?’ I would tell my students about

Scathing obit about abusive NV mother goes viral Sandra Chereb Scott Sonner Associated Press

RENO, Nev. (AP) — The children of an abusive woman whose horror stories prompted Nevada to become one of the first states to allow children to sever parental ties wrote a scathing obituary that was published in the local newspaper — and has since become an Internet sensation.

The obituary opened with a harsh statement about the legacy of Marianne Theresa Johnson-Reddick: “On behalf of her children who she abrasively exposed to her evil and violent life, we celebrate her passing from this earth and hope she lives in the after-life reliving each gesture of violence, cruelty and shame that she delivered on her children.”

Katherine Reddick said she wrote it about her mother, who died at a Reno nursing home Aug. 30 at the age of 78.

Now a psychology consultant for a school district outside Austin, Texas, she said she decided to share the story of their painful physical and mental abuse after consulting with her brother, Patrick Reddick. They said they grew up with four siblings in a Carson City orphanage after they were removed from their mother’s home and had been estranged from her for more than 30 years.

“Everyone she met, adult or child was tortured by her cruelty and exposure to violence, criminal activity, vulgarity, and hatred of the gentle or kind human spirit,” the obit said. “Our greatest wish now is to stimulate a national movement that mandates a purposeful and dedicated war against child abuse in the United States of America.”

Six of JohnsonReddick’s eight children were admitted to the Nevada Children’s Home from 1963 to 1964 after

they endured regular beatings, sometimes with a metal-tipped belt, and other abuse at the hands of their mother, Patrick Reddick said.

Patrick Reddick said he’s had phone calls from “all over the world” after his mother’s obituary went viral.

“Everything in there was completely true,” the Minden man told The Associated Press on Thursday, describing her as a “wicked, wicked witch.” ”The main purpose for putting it in there was to bring awareness to the child abuse.

And shame her a little bit.”

Patrick Reddick, 58, said he last saw his mother more than three decades ago.

Reddick and his sister, now 57, testified before the 1987 Legislature on bills to make courts give equal consideration to the best interest of a child when terminating parental rights.

Former state Sen. Sue

Kiser

Wagner, who authored the legislation that ultimately was signed into law, remembers meeting with them at the time.

She told KOLO-TV in Reno that it was one of the reasons Nevada became one of few states to address the issue at the time.

The obituary was printed in Tuesday’s editions of the Reno GazetteJournal and appeared on RGJ.com after it was submitted through a selfservice online portal.

John Maher, president and publisher of the newspaper, said in a “note to readers” that the paper had “removed the online listing of this obituary as we continue our review of the circumstances surrounding its placement.”

Little else is known about the woman. The Reno newspaper reported that she lived in a mobile home with 15 cats up until she was hospitalized in May for treatment of bladder cancer.

Roma Kiser, second from right, poses with, left to right, great-granddaughter Alicia Cota Fields and daughters Teresa Miller and Linda Cota. Kiser, of Piqua, celebrated her 105th birthday on Sept. 11.

Kiser worked in several area restaurants including the Palm Grill, M&M Cafe, Cooper’s and the Piqua Elks Club. She also cooked for weekly Kiwanis meetings and for the YMCA into her 80s. She also recorded a YouTube video when she was 100 in which she demonstrates how to bake a sugar cream pie. The video can be viewed at: http//youtu.be/EICL46DkeF4.

Kiser said she’s not sure how she’ll celebrate her 110th birthday, but she’s grateful for every day. “I didn’t think I was going to make it to be 105, but here I am,” she said. “(God) has something for me to do … I just thank Him every day for giving me another day.”

helpful. She actually came up with quite a few ideas that I used in the book.”

Anna and her younger sister also inspired the names of two of the main characters who, with their friend Kaleb (named after the sister’s real-life cousin), are genius secret agent kids recruited into the Freedom Force and trained to be spies. Their nemeses are squirrel villains Dr. Aryoo Nutz and Agent Fluff E. Tail, who head the agency known as E.V.I.L. The nefarious pair is pictured on the cover of the book, which was illustrated by McElwee’s sister Rachel

King, an art teacher at Northridge High School in Dayton.

McElwee said the “classic good vs. evil story” has been read by daughter Anna and some of her students, who love it and have pronounced it “amazing.” She also has a newfound respect for the hard work that goes into writing a book.

“I don’t think I realized how long of a process it was to write a book, have someone else edit it, get the cover worked out,” she said. “Some people write 400-500 pages and this is just a kids’ book.

Now I understand why it takes so long to write longer books.”

Putting the book up for sale was the easiest part of the process, since all she had to do was post it on Amazon. com. “E.V.I.L. vs. The Freedom Force: The Quest for Mind Control” can be bought for $2.99 at www.amazon.com/dp/ B00EZZSPVW. With her first book on the cyber-shelves, McElwee is already thinking “sequel.”

“I have an idea for the next book, ‘E.V.I.L. vs. the Freedom Force: The Search for Sting.’ I’m on the brink of starting,” she said. “Knowing how long it’s going to take to get done, I want to get moving on it!”

Beagle and Children’s promote bike helmet safety PIQUA — State Sen. Bill Beagle (R-Tipp City) will join experts from Dayton Children’s Hospital to promote bicycle helmet safety on Saturday, Oct. 5 from 10 a.m.-noon.

Helmets will be fitted at the Piqua Public Library, 116 W. High St. The first 75 children ages 5-14 in attendance will be fitted with a free bicycle helmet.

Sen. Beagle and representatives from Dayton Children’s will be fitting and distributing free helmets to children and offering additional education about the importance of wearing a helmet.

Held in support of the Ohio American Academy of Pediatrics’ “Put a Lid on It� campaign, the purpose of the event is to counteract injuries sustained from bicycle crashes, the second lead-

ing cause of serious injury due to sports activity in children. Parents and children are encouraged to not only wear their helmets but spread the word to others.

According to Safe Kids Worldwide, only 50 percent of kids between the ages of 5-14 own a helmet.

Of that number, only 25 percent say they always wear their helmet. The AAP reported in 2010 that the number of people injured by not wearing a bike helmet was 51,000 — enough people to fill Fifth Third Field, home of the Dayton Dragons, more than five times. In 2011, Dayton Children’s Regional Pediatric Health Assessment showed that when a child reaches age 9, the number of those who wear helmets regularly drops 26 percent.

As part of his 4-H Lawn Care project, Lehman student Derek Gaier competes in the obstacle course portion of the start competition at the Ohio State Fair. As a result of finishing first in the competition, he qualified for the National 4-H Engineering Challenge later this month at Purdue University.

Gaier chosen for national 4-H challenge

SIDNEY — Derek Gaier, son of Dan and Deb Gaier of Piqua, has been selected to be part of a talented group of 4-H members representing Ohio at the National 4-H Engineering Challenge.

The competition will be held Sept. 29-Oct. 1 at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind. The intent of the Engineering Challenge is to excite youth about engineering careers through challenging and competitive hands-on design experiences. Gaier qualified for the event through his 4-H lawn care project at this year’s Ohio State Fair. Gaier, who achieved the highest score in the competition, received an Outstanding of the Day Award and the 4-H Clock Trophy for Lawn Tractor.

By receiving the Clock Trophy, he qualified for the national competition.

A junior at Lehman Catholic High School in Sidney, Gaier has been a member of the Families Are Forever 4-H Club for 10 years. He has developed projects in various

areas including archery, bicycling, living history, pistols, powerpoint, shotguns, small engines, welding, and lawn care. He has qualified for the state fair eight times and this is the third time he has won a coveted Clock Trophy. “4-H has been a tremendous learning experience for me,� Gaier stated. “You learn a lot of life lessons that are not generally part of a school’s classroom experience. I have learned to do everything from troubleshooting an engine to learning to do three different kinds of welding to creating powerpoint presentations to caring for firearms. All of these experiences have helped me develop skills and knowledge that will serve me throughout my life,� Gaier noted.

Gaier plans to major in engineering of one variety or another in college and will likely eventually become a 4-H advisor himself. “I have gained so much from 4-H that I know I will want to give back,�

Gaier stated.

President Obama spoke to that in his Tuesday address from the East Room. He challenged us to look at the lights reaching to the heavens from where the Twin Towers stood, and consider our response.

America is justifiably war-weary. Most of us have a Syria-is-none-ofour-business attitude.

But dare we be lethargic or indifferent when a dictator starts gassing children?

We must be flexible and circumspect, and that is Obama’s approach. It always has been, I think. The president’s critics are vocal, and usually consistent only in their opposition.

Others urged immediate intervention. Obama wanted congressional approval for a directed, limited strike. He is willing to wait for United Nations confirmation of our intelligence. Obama prefers diplomacy to war, and laid the groundwork for a diplomatic solution in private conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin. If — and Obama recognizes it as a big if — Syria’s stores of chemical weapons can be removed and destroyed, peacefully, it will be a quiet victory for the president, obtained because he allowed others (such as Putin) to take credit.

Many of Obama’s opponents dismiss this approach as unworkable and a delaying ploy, as if he does not recognize the possibility of a bluff.

He does, and he will call it.

The president has shown himself to be flexible, but resolute. His call for a strike is not for its own sake. If the objective can be achieved peacefully, so much the better.

The threat is stronger than the execution.

And the threat of an American air strike, in reaction to Syria’s use of chemical weapons, is very real to Assad, and to Putin. It is that threat that motivated the diplomatic moves. Let’s hope it works.

To the Editor: One of the most hazardous industries in the United States is agriculture. As a result, many injuries and illnesses occur to farmers and ranchers almost everyday across the nation. The Miami EastMVCTC FFA Chapter salutes the hard-working farmers and ranchers that feed our country.

Farmers and ranchers, and the general public are often injured when agricultural machinery is involved in roadway incidents. To increase the awareness of the limitations of agricultural machinery in traveling speed and maneuverability the National Safety Council will observe the National Farm Safety and Health Week focusing on this issue from September 16 to 20.

As you travel the rural roads of Miami County, please drive slowly and cautiously. Farmers can’t maneuver or slow as quickly as a passenger vehicle.

Farmers also drive their equipment on the road during all hours of the day and night. Please be advised that large farm equipment often takes up more of the road than a car of truck.

We live in a health conscious society and many of us exercise as part of our daily routine. Walking and running are common forms of exercise in rural areas. The safest way to walk or run on rural roads is to travel on the side of the road with the traffic coming at you. In this way, you can see the situation ahead. If you’re facing the traffic then you can react to the situation. If not — well the result could be tragic.

Riding a bicycle is a common form of exercise in rural areas. When riding a bicycle, wear your helmet and travel on the road with traffic. Mirrors are available to attach to either the bicycle or the helmet that can help you see what is coming up from behind. Remember that we all share the road, so take safety into your own hands.

Farmers will watch out for you, if you watch out for them. Move slowly and keep alert at all times. The Miami East-MVCTC FFA Chapter wishes everyone a safe and productive harvest season. When you see a slow moving vehicle please slow down. Rebekah Eidemiller Reporter Miami East-MVCTC FFA Chapter.

Condolences to old friend better late than never DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend of four years, “Joey,” is a kind and loving person. Recently the father of one of his close childhood friends died.

We live a plane ride away, and Joey could not get time off work to attend the services.

I assumed Joey called his friend and family to extend his sympathies.

During our last visit home, I found out he had not reached out to them.

I’m upset that he didn’t, and I know the friend was deeply hurt by it.

At this point, what can Joey do to make things right? Why wouldn’t he make the call in the first place? — SMOOTHING IT OVER IN SAN

ANTONIO

DEAR SMOOTHING IT OVER: Joey may not have reached out because he didn’t know what to do, which would have been to call and extend his condolences or send a card or handwritten note.

He may have procrastinated because he didn’t know what to say and was afraid he’d say the wrong thing.

The way to fix this would be for Joey to pick up the phone, apologize to his friend for not calling sooner, and confess that he knows he was wrong for not doing so.

All he needs to say after that is that he’s sorry for his friend’s loss, which he

knows must have been CLAIRE, WIS. painful. Then he should be quiet and listen.

It’s the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN), and you can find it on the Internet at asexuality.org.

Queen Latifah plans to make noise with new show AP Television Writer

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Queen Latifah knows a reliable stress reliever to cope with the pressures of launching a daytime show.

“I have a drum set in my dressing room and I go in there and play for a few minutes to relax. They can forget about it being quiet around here — I’m going to bang my drums,” said the singer-songwriter and actress, who’s adding the job of host to her resume.

With Monday’s debut of the syndicated “The Queen Latifah Show” (check local listings for station, time), she intends to make noise in the competitive realm of daytime TV. “I’m naturally a bit edgier than typical daytime, but I kind of want to push things a little bit further, as far as I can respectfully, within the daytime space,” said Latifah. “I want more out of daytime TV. I want more choices, I want more heart, more humor.”

She also wants more music, befitting someone who broke ground as a female rapper before expanding into other genres. Her wish list is varied and includes Coldplay and Kings of Leon, and she’s already got Alicia Keys and Plain White T’s lead singer Tom Higgenson booked for her first week.

Other inaugural guests include John Travolta, Sharon Stone, Jamie Foxx, Jake Gyllenhaal and Lisa Kudrow. Also invited are “regular people who do amazing things” that are inspirational and who deserve to share the stage with celebrities, Latifah said.

“As much bad news as we see every day, it’s good to see people out there doing positive things that give you hope. I’m an optimist,” she said.

Monday’s show will feature a performance by preteen actress-singer Willow Smith, with dad Will Smith dropping in Tuesday. If the schedule seems a tad Smith family heavy, it’s with good reason: Latifah and Smith go way back,

and he and wife Jada Pinkett Smith are among the producers of Latifah’s new venture.

“She’s just fantastic,” Pinkett Smith told reporters in August. “I just feel like every (day), you have the opportunity to kick it with your girlfriend, Queen Latifah.”

Latifah, 43, would have liked such a team for her first try as a talk-show host. The program had an abbreviated run from 19992001 but pointed her in the right direction for her new effort from Sony Pictures Television.

“I learned I really have to be true to myself. … I want to AP Photo/Sony Pictures Television go out there and do something that feels This undated publicity photo released by Sony Pictures Television shows Will Smith, left, with Queen Latifah, on “The Queen Latifah like me every day and Show,” where he also serves as executive producer.

HIWT named military-friendly school TROY — Hobart Institute of Welding Technology, dedicated to welding training and education excellence, has been named a Military Friendly School for 2014 by Victory Media Inc., the premier media entity for military personnel transitioning into civilian life, ranking HIWT in the top 20 percent of all colleges, universities, and trade schools nationwide that are doing the most to embrace America’s military service members, veterans and spouses as students and ensure their success on campus.

This is the second year in a row that HIWT has been awarded this honor.

“Inclusion on the 2014 list of Military Friendly Schools shows Hobart Institute’s commitment to providing a supportive environment for military students,” said Sean Collins, vice president at Victory Media and a nine-year

Navy veteran. “The need for education is growing and our mission is to provide the military community with transparent, world-class resources to assist in their search for schools.”

Complete survey methodology is available at militaryfriendlyschools.com/Article/methodologypress-kit.

“We are very proud of this honor,” said Brenda Scott, director of compliance and student services. “It reflects our efforts in working with members of the military and veterans who have made sacrifices in defense of our nation. We’re proud to be recognized as an institution that is making an effort to embrace and accommodate them.”

Now in its fifth year, the 2014 list of Military Friendly Schools was compiled through extensive research and a data-driven survey of more than 10,000

schools nationwide approved for VA tuition funding. The survey results that comprise the 2014 list were independently tested by Ernst & Young LLP based upon the weightings and methodology established by Victory Media.

Each year schools taking the survey are held to a higher standard than the previous year via improved methodology, criteria and weightings developed with the assistance of an Academic Advisory Board (AAB) consisting of educators from schools across the country. A full list of board members can be found at http://militaryfriendlyschools. com/board.

The Hobart Institute, which has accepted students under the G.I. Bill since 1950, is a nonprofit educational facility best-known for its hands-on skill training programs and for offering technical training. From its website, Hobart

Institute offers online courses in Visual Inspection and Welding Symbols with additional offerings under development. The Institute also assists companies and individuals with welder certification and qualification and customized in-plant and specialized training.

Many vocational schools, colleges and military training facilities prefer to purchase the Hobart Institute’s welding training materials including DVDs, student workbooks and instructor guides.

To help finance education, the institute works with federal grant and loan programs, educational benefits for veterans and funding for dislocated workers.

Scholarships are also available to those who qualify.

For more information on the school, connect through Facebook, LinkedIN or YouTube, or send an email to hiwt@welding.org to receive the monthly e-newsletter or a print subscription to The World of Welding.

Conn. slave who died in 1798 called ‘child of God’ John Christoffersen Associated Press

WATERBURY, Conn.

(AP) — A slave who died more than 200 years ago in Connecticut but was never buried was given an extraordinary funeral Thursday that included lying in state at the Capitol and calls for learning from his painful life.

The enslaved man known as Mr. Fortune was buried in a cemetery filled with prominent citizens after a service at the Waterbury church where he had been baptized. Earlier in the day, his remains lay in state in the Capitol rotunda in Hartford.

“Our brother Mr. Fortune has been remembered, and it is with restored dignity his bones shall be buried,” the Rev. Amy D. Welin of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Waterbury told hundreds gathered for the service.

“We bury Mr. Fortune not as a slave, but as a child of God who is blessed.”

Fortune “teaches us today about the long and convoluted path to justice and reconciliation,” Welin said, adding later that “this story from Waterbury’s past calls us to remember and to continue our commitment to justice.”

The service was marked by thunderous singing that shook the old church at times, occasional clapping, applause and cries of “Amen” as a coffin containing Fortune’s bones was placed in front of the altar, amid scripture readings that included Paul’s declaration that “there is no longer slave or free.”

Welin said they had gathered for a man they never knew whose life was marked by paradox.

Fortune was a slave who owned a house, had a wife and four children but had no control over the disposition of his body when he died and was never given a dignified burial despite being baptized as an Episcopalian, she said.

A memorial register book with entries from friends and family for an enslaved man known as Mr. Fortune is seen at the Capitol in Hartford, Conn., Sept. 12. Mr. Fortune was honored Thursday with a funeral more than 200 years after he died in Connecticut.

on a farm in Waterbury.

When Fortune died in 1798, Porter, a bone surgeon, preserved his skeleton by having the bones boiled to study anatomy at a time when cadavers for medical study were disproportionately taken from slaves, servants and prisoners.

One of Porter’s descendants gave the skeleton in 1933 to Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury, where it was displayed

from the 1940s until 1970.

The descendant referred to the slave as “Larry,” and his name was forgotten at the time.

A local historical account from 1896 claimed “Larry” slipped on a rock and drowned in the river. Tests over the years, including a recent exam at Quinnipiac University, found evidence of a neck fracture around the time of death not associated with hang-

ing. The university has not been able to determine the cause of his death.

The study by Quinnipiac concluded that Fortune was about 5 feet 5 inches tall and died when he was around 55 years old, said Richard Gonzalez, an assistant professor and forensic anthropologist at Quinnipiac’s school of medicine. He suffered a number of painful ailments, including a fracture in his left hand, a severe ankle sprain and lower back pain.

The museum has long wanted to give Fortune a proper burial, Director Bob Burns said. The latest tests, which included CT scans of the bones, will allow researchers to continue studying the bones without the need for the physical remains, he said.

“We’ve always had a desire to finally put these remains to rest, but there was always a concern that there may be some new opportunity to learn more in the future. And

that future is right now,” Burns said.

Maxine Watts, chairman of a committee involved with the project and past president of the NAACP, shared those concerns. Now that the latest tests have been done, she said, it’s time to bury Fortune.

“Now we feel even though he was used that way, he did prove underneath the skin we’re all the same,” Watts said of the earlier anatomical study of the skeleton.

Fortune was buried near contemporaries who never would have spoken to him or viewed him as human, said Steven Mullins, president of the southern Connecticut chapter of the Union of Black Episcopalians. He noted the use and display of his bones was done without his consent.

“He will be at a place of honor completely contrary to the life he and his family and his colleagues in slavery ever knew,” Mullins said.

Wal-Mart lets kids pick ‘hot toys’ for holidays Mae Anderson AP Retail Writer

NEW YORK (AP) — Lots of retailers come out with “hot toy” lists every holiday season, but this year Wal-Mart decided to try something different: let kids rate their favorite toys.

In a first, about 1,000 boys and girls aged 18 months to 10 years spent time over a threeday weekend in August in Dallas playing with 50-plus toys and choosing their favorites. The result is a top 20 list of kid-approved toys, out Thursday, that includes a new robotic pet Furby, a hugging Elmo and a Barbie dream house.

Retailers place their bets early on which toys will be hits and then spend heavily to market them to spur sales during the holiday season. It’s a crucial time because holiday sales can make up to 40 percent of a retailers’ annual revenue.

During spring planning for the holidays, one toy buyer came up with the idea to let kids be part of the process, said Scott McCall, senior vice president of toys and seasonal at Walmart U.S. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is the world’s largest retailer and the biggest seller of toys.

“It validated our assortment and caused us to think differently about this holiday,” he said.

Making the list? Lots of new takes on classic toys,

McCall said, like a new robotic pet Furby and a new Barbie Dreamhouse playset. TV show-related toys were also popular, including a Sofia the First talking doll, and a Doc McStuffins Get Better Check Up Center, both Disney properties, and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Secret Sewer Lair Playset based on the Nickelodeon show.

Cuddly interactive toys are also on the list, including an Elmo doll based on the Sesame Street character that gives hugs and FurReal Friends Cuddles My Giggly Monkey, a monkey that coos and cuddles.

With Christmas still months away, it is too soon to tell which toys will actually become the must-have toys of the season. But Wal-Mart plans to promote the top 20 toys with dedicated shelf space proclaiming the toys “Chosen by Kids” and with prominent positions on its website and in circulars, beginning later this month.

“We’re going to make sure to showcase our top toys in a different way,” McCall said.

The Bentonville, Ark.based retailer is also offering a layaway program with no opening fees for the holidays. A minimum down payment of 10 percent or $10, and a minimum purchase of $15 per item or $50 total, is required.

Sidney City Council seeks candidates to fill upcoming vacancy SIDNEY — Sidney City Council is seeking candidates to fill an upcoming vacancy on council.

Council Clerk Joyce Goubeaux has been advised by the Shelby

County Board of Elections that no petition has been filed by a qualified elector seeking election to succeed Thomas Miller upon his retirement as the

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — On a typical summer weekend, hundreds of boats glide across the shimmering surface of Iowa’s Lake Red Rock, the state’s largest body of water.

The placid 15,000acre lake was created in the 1960s after the government built a dam to prevent frequent flooding on the Des Moines River. Now the cool waters behind the dam are attracting interest beyond warm-weather recreation. A power company wants to build a hydroelectric plant here — a project that reflects renewed interest in hydropower nationwide, which could bring changes to scores of American dams.

Hydroelectric development stagnated in the 1980s and 1990s as environmental groups lobbied against it and a long regulatory process required years of environmental study. But for the first time in decades, power companies are proposing new projects to take advantage of government financial incentives, policies that promote renewable energy over fossil fuels and efforts to streamline the permit process.

“We’re seeing a significant change in attitude,” said Linda Church Ciocci, executive director of the National Hydropower Association, a trade group.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which oversees hydroelectric projects in the U.S., issued 125 preliminary hydropower permits last year, up from 95 in 2011. Preliminary permits allow a company to explore a project for up to three years. The agency issued 25 licenses for hydropower projects last year, the most since 2005.

In all, more than 60,000 megawatts of preliminary permits and 3rd Ward representative on council. Miller has served as the 3rd Ward councilman since December 1989. He announced his retirement earlier this year.

The vacancy created by this circumstance will be filled in December by way of appointment by council, under the authority of the Sidney city charter. In accord with state statute, Miller “shall” continue in

projects awaiting final approval are pending before the commission in 45 states.

“I’ve never seen those kinds of numbers before,” Church Ciocci said.

The interest in hydropower is so intense that some utilities are competing to build plants at the same dams, leaving the government to determine which ones get to proceed.

Hydroelectricity provides about 7 percent of the nation’s power using about 2,500 dams. But those dams are just a fraction of the 80,000 in the United States. Most were built for flood control, to aid in river navigation or to create recreational areas. So they do not have power plants.

The Department of Energy concluded last year that the U.S. could boost its hydropower capability by 15 percent by fitting nearly 600 existing dams with generators.

Most of the potential is concentrated in 100 dams largely owned by the federal government and operated by the Army Corps of Engineers. Many are navigation locks on the Ohio, Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas rivers or their major tributaries.

The state with the most hydropower potential is Illinois, followed

by Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, and Pennsylvania. Rounding out the top 10 are Texas, Missouri, Indiana, and Iowa, the study concluded.

Workers could begin construction on the Red Rock Dam as early as the spring. The project involves drilling two holes in the 110-foot high, mile-long dam and running water through two turbines.

Missouri River Energy Services, a Sioux Falls, S.D.-based not-for-profit utility that provides power to 61 cities, has the license to build the power plant at an estimated cost of $260 miloffice until his replacement has been identified. The appointment will be for the four-year term, ending Nov. 30, 2017, less the additional days served in office by Miller.

Qualified electors who reside in the 3rd Ward who may be interested in being considered for appointment to this position should forward a written expression of interest to Goubeaux on

lion.

When complete, the 34-megawatt facility will be able to support as many as 18,000 homes for a year, said company spokesman Bill Radio. It could crank out up to 55 megawatts at times when the river is running full.

Missouri River Energy is considering three other hydroelectric projects at existing dams — one on the Des Moines River north of Des Moines and two others on the Mississippi River at Dubuque and Davenport.

Electricity suppliers prefer hydropower because it is much easier to ramp up or down based on customer demand than natural gaspowered plants, and it is much more reliable on a daily basis than wind or solar power.

The proposed developments also benefit from worries about the environmental risks of coal power and safety fears surrounding nuclear energy.

“I do think we’re going to see more of this,” Radio said, citing the difficulty of building coal or nuclear facilities. “You take two really big pieces of future generation out of the mix right now, and what that leaves is natural gas, hydro and other renewables.”

While hydroelectric plants cost more to build than those that run on natural gas or wind power, they require little maintenance for decades and the fuel is free.

Hydroelectricity got a boost in 2005, when Congress approved a tax credit for hydropower that was already in place for other sources of renewable energy, including wind and solar.

President Barack Obama signed two bills last month designed to spark more interest in hydropower. One directs the FERC to consider adopting a two-year licensing process at existing non-powered dams. The second autho-

rizes quicker action on proposals for small hydro projects at dams owned by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.

Interest in hydropower had been low because of the high cost of construction and a protracted government permit process requiring extensive environmental studies and mounds of paperwork. That left projects mired in bureaucracy for as much as eight years before construction could begin.

“If you keep putting money into something over eight years, pretty soon the cost of that capital just eats you up,” said Kristina Johnson, the former undersecretary in the Department of Energy and CEO of Enduring Hydro, a company that develops hydropower projects. “Given that, it’s not surprising decades go by and things don’t get built.”

Her company is building a 6-megawatt plant at a dam on Mahoning Creek in western Pennsylvania after buying the permit from another company in August. It will supply enough power for 1,800 homes.

An environmental group that has sought since 1973 to minimize harm from hydropower dams largely supports the idea of adding generators to existing dams.

“Some dams need to be removed, but there are also many working dams out there that are still serving a useful purpose for society,” said John Seebach, who leads the effort for Washington-based American Rivers.

In general, he said, rivers would be better off without dams. But since they aren’t going away, “powering those existing dams is in our view the best way to get new hydropower capacity. It’s cheaper than building new dams, and it’s much less likely to cause additional harm to a river.”

or before the close of business on Oct. 30. The expression of interest should include contact information and background information.

Once the Board of Elections has certified the candidates, the candidates will be interviewed by council.

Those interviews will take place at a special meeting on Dec. 2, following the election of the mayor, vice mayor,

and the swearing in of the ward council members elected in November as well as the swearing in of the mayor and vice mayor. The newly selected 3rd Ward council member will be selected at the Dec. 9 meeting of council, and sworn in at a special meeting of council on Dec. 16. Miller’s term will statutorily end with the swearing in of his replacement.

CASSTOWN — The Miami East Vikings, hosting a Piqua team still smarting from a 6-0 loss to Butler on Thursday night, fought hard and came away with a 2-0 victory to improve to 6-3 on the season.

“We came out strong and found our stride early,” Miami East coach Adam Bell said. “Both teams played solid ball.

Hard work, hustle and determination found us two good goals.”

The first one of those came 13 minutes into the game when Devyn Carson and Devin Baldasare hooked up with Austin Kowalak to put the Vikings up 1-0.

That was the way things stayed until halftime, but 10 minutes into the second half the Vikings got the insurance they needed when Carson crossed it to Baldasare.

Jacob Brown notched the shutout in goal for the Vikings, who travel to Stivers Monday.

BALTIMORE (AP) — The Baltimore Ravens sacked Brandon Weeden five times before finally knocking him out of the game in the fourth quarter of a 14-6 victory on Sunday.

After yielding 49 points in a season-opening loss at Denver, Baltimore's defense came up with a redemptive performance against the Browns (0-2).

Cleveland failed to score in the second half and managed only 85 yards over the final 30 minutes.

Cavs, East post wins

Lehman uses big third quarter to beat London LONDON — Lehman stepped out of its class for a while Friday, and with excellent results.

The Division VII Cavaliers took a 90-minute bus ride to take on D-IV London in non-league high school football action Friday, and used a big third quarter to come away with a 48-26 victory.

The wins give the Cavs a 2-1 mark after their second straight win, and they will go for three in a row Friday at home against Lima Perry in the first Northwest Central Conference game of the season.

Lehman took a 14-7 lead after the opening quarter, but the margin was just a single point at the haf at 21-20.

The third quarter was the difference, though, with the Cavs putting up three touchdowns while the defense was blanking London. That turned it into a 42-20 score with one quarter to play.

Quarterback Nick Rourke had another excellent outing, competing 16 of 29 passes for 266 yards and three touchdowns. He also ran for two more scores to account for five of the seven Lehman TDs. Greg Spearman also scored two touchdowns rushing, and carried 12

times for 117 yards in the game, an average of nearly 10 yards per carry.

In addition, he had an interception, as did Dylan Arnold.

Drew Westerheide had a big night receiving, catching five passes for 140 yards and two touchowns.

Max Schutt caught four passes for 48 yards, John Husa three for 38 yards and a touchdown, and Clay Selsor three for 34 yards.

Guiton doesn’t waste his opportunity Moves into record book

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — Kenny Guiton waited until his fifth year at Ohio State to get his first start.

Two plays into the game, he was already in the Buckeyes' record book.

Guiton threw three of his four touchdown passes in the first six minutes, including a school-record 90yarder to start the onslaught, and No. 4 Ohio State rolled to its 15th straight victory, 52-34 over California on Saturday night.

"That's pretty cool," Guiton said. "I'm in my fifth year, getting my first start. It's a blessing."

Guiton got the start in place of injured Braxton Miller and there was no drop-off in performance for the Buckeyes (3-0). He connected with Devin

Smith on the deep ball on Ohio State's second offensive play — the longest from scrimmage in school history.

He added a 47-yard touchdown to Smith and a 1-yarder to Chris Fields on fourth-and-goal as Ohio State jumped out to a 21-0 lead over the Golden Bears (1-2) less than halfway through the first quarter.

Guiton completed 21 of 32 passes for 276 yards and added 92 yards rushing to lead the Buckeyes.

"He's a very good distributor," coach Urban Meyer said. "He gets the ball to the right people at the right time. What I was more impressed with with him were the downfield throws.

Those were right on the dot, a few of them, and Devin Smith made some excellent catches."

Jordan Hall added 168 yards on the ground and

three touchdowns as Ohio State extended the longest winning streak in major college football by outgunning the Bears in a highpaced offensive game.

With both teams running no-huddle offenses for much of the game, the defenses were scrambling as the teams combined for 86 points, 11 touchdowns and 1,111 total yards on 177 plays.

Cal's prolific freshman quarterback Jared Goff just missed his third straight 400-yard game to begin his career, going 31 for 53 for 371 yards with three touchdowns.

But he also lost a fumble and threw an interception in the first quarter to put the Bears in an early hole they could never escape.

"I felt like we had a good chance to make some plays early on," Goff said.

"We kind of fell behind the eight ball there going

down 21-0. That kind of hurt. But I was proud of the way we fought back.

We never quit."

Goff got little help from the running game or defense. Brendan Bigelow, who rushed for 160 yards and two touchdowns on four carries last year against Ohio State was held to 39 yards on 11 carries in the rematch.

Cal's injury-ravaged defense has allowed at least 500 yards every game this season under first-year coach Sonny Dykes and even the opportunity to face a backup quarterback in Guiton couldn't change that pattern.

"I don't think we're that far off," Dykes said. "We're a very young football team. If you just compare the roster in terms of starters, I think we had two seniors that started for us today. I think they had like 14, 15. That's a big difference. We just got

to group up. We've got to improve. That falls on us as coaches to coach better and bring our players along and put them in a good position to be successful."

Guiton had thrown just 26 career passes before stepping in during the first quarter last week against San Diego State when Miller left with a sprained left knee.

Miller practiced sparingly this week but was unable to play in the game, giving Guiton his long-awaited shot as a starter.

He was ready and on his second play found Smith behind safety Damariay Drew for the 90-yard play that delighted the thousands of scarlet-clad fans who made up nearly half of the crowd at Memorial Stadium.

"Devin has world-class speed," Guiton said.

9

"Sending him on deep routes in man coverage, we're going to try to exploit that. I saw him beat his man and I tried to lay it up for him. He ran under it and he can do the rest."

That started an actionpacked opening quarter that featured 38 points, three turnovers and 445 yards of offense between the two teams.

Despite that fast start, the Buckeyes only led 3120 at the half as Goff threw a pair of TD passes and Dykes pulled out all the stops.

On fourth-and-8 late in the half, Dykes appeared to send the punting unit out. But Goff, who wears the same number as punter Cole Leininger, lined up in punt formation and threw an 11-yard pass to Stefan McClure that set up Vincenzo D'Amato's 43yard field goal on the final play of the half.

East drops ‘grudge match’ Lady Viking spikers give Hartley battle

BY JOSH BROWN Civitas Media CASSTOWN — In a grudge match against the only team that beat them last year, the Miami East volleyball team came out on a mission.

But once Bishop Hartley settled in and worked the momentum into its favor, there was little East could do to swing it back.

The Vikings (7-3) were on fire from the start and won the first game in convincing fashion, but the Hawks — the No. 4 team in the state in Division II — won a hard-fought second game and then used its athleticism to dominate in the third and fourth games to win 15-25, 25-22, 25-16, 25-18 Saturday at Miami East High School.

“They responded,” Miami East coach John Cash said. “We came at them pretty tough in that first game.

“We had them doing what we wanted them to do.

“In the second game, though, we had some untimely service errors where we could have pushed ahead, but that didn’t happen. And I think that took a little of our

confidence away.”

Last season, the Hawks held off the Vikings in five games in Columbus — the only loss the Vikings suffered on their way to a second straight D-III state championship.

Saturday, Miami East looked underrated at No. 12 in the state in D-III in the first game.

A string of three Angie Mack kills punctuated a six-point run as the Vikings took a quick 7-1 lead, then East won eight out of 10 points during another stretch to pull ahead 17-6. The Hawks tried to chip their way back into contention, but Sam Cash put down a kill on game point to give the Vikings a 1-0 lead.

“They’re a two-time defending state champion,” Hartley coach Mike Brae said. “They’ve always been strong, and we’ve got to remember that.

“Both programs are strong, and it’s fun to be able to play good, quality teams.”

Game 2 gave the fans a taste of state tournamentlevel competition as both heavyweights threw haymaker after haymaker.

Sam Cash had seven kills in the game and Allison Morrett had three kills

and a block to lead the Vikings, who held the lead as late as 19-18.

But Madeline Brandewie spread four kills and a block throughout the game, Kristen Chatman added three kills and a block and Erin Chatman had three kills — including one that made the score 23-21 Hartley late.

An East error made it 2421 before Morrett scored on a tip kill, but a service error allowed the Hawks to even up the overall match score.

After that, Hartley jumped out to a 7-1 lead in Game 3 and a 5-0 lead in Game 2 and never really looked back. The Vikings trailed 20-8 at one point in Game 4 before a four-point service run by Lindsey Black and a three-point run by Morrett helped close the gap to 23-18 before the Hawks put it away.

“We aren’t going to see a team with that kind of athleticism ever again.

Hartley is a class program, and it’s an honor to get to pay against them,” John Cash said. “(When trying to get momentum back after losing it) it’s all about trying to get the kids refocused on the game plan.

In the fourth game, we got there late — but not early.”

Sam Cash finished with 15 kills, five digs, three blocks, an ace and 15 assists and Morrett had a triple-double with 10 kills, 10 digs, 15 assists and a block to lead the Vikings, who travel to Twin Valley South Tuesday and hosts Tri-County North Thursday in CCC action, before hosting its first-ever volleyball invitational this Saturday.

Mack added seven kills, three digs and an ace, Ashley Current had four kills and a block, Trina Current had two kills, three blocks, an ace and a dig, Kati Runner had two kills, Black had 11 digs and Anna Kiesewetter had 14 digs and an assist.

Still, the match was anything but a total loss for the Vikings, who had been looking to truly test themselves again.

“This was the best practice we’ve had all year,” John Cash said. “We did some things that we hadn’t done all year, some things that we just threw in in practice this week, and we scored on them and they worked.

Erin Sweitzer tied the game up on a feed from Morgan Miller, then Sweitzer set up the gamewinning goal by Trelissa Lavy.

Newton (4-4-1) hosts Butler Monday, while Milton-Union will look to get back on track Tuesday at home against Carlisle in Southwestern Buckeye League Buckeye Division play.

Lady Cavs win

SIDNEY — Lehman has been having an excellent season so far in high school girls soccer, but has not yet shown up in the state rankings.

Maybe that was extra motivation Saturday when the No. 2-ranked team in the state in Division III, Cincinnati Summit Country Day, came to town on Saturday afternoon.

The Lady Cavs scored just a minute into the game, took a 2-0 lead in the second half, then held on for a 2-1 win to remain unbeaten on the year at 60-1. Summit falls to 5-2.

"Our defense played so well," said Lehman coach Tony Schroeder. "Jordi Emrick, Carly Baird, McKenna Guillozet and Hannah Fogt, they frustrated them quite a bit.

And the speed of our forwards I think surprised them.

“Taylor Lachey had a good game using her speed."

One minute into the game, Ashley Keller made a big play. Summit was passing the ball back to its goalie when Keller chased it down and got it to Sara Fuller, who knocked it in

for a quick 1-0 lead.

Then with 10 minutes gone in the second half, Fuller passes to Lachey, who hit it along the ground to the far left post for a 2-0 lead.

After that, the Lady Cavs went into defensive mode.

"They made a formation change with about 15 minutes to go and went into attacking mode," said Schroeder of Summit.

"They got a long shot that went just over the fingers of Grace Frantz (goalie) to make it 2-1, so then we made a formation change and spent most of the time at our end of the field. We felt we had to counter their attack mode."

Lehman was outshot in the second half because of it, 8-3, but Frantz was up to the challenge, finishing with 10 saves in the game.

Lehman has a busy week ahead, hosting Bethel tonight, then traveling to Springfield Catholic Thursday and Cincinnati Madeira on Saturday in non-conference play.

The Lehman junior varsity won 1-0 with Katie Edwards scoring the goal off an assist by Kaitrin O'Leary.

plays off, but did take some time to enjoy the Hall of Fame ceremony at the half, which was highlighted by an emotional speech by the Buccs' #1 Fan, Dennis "Scooby" Willoughby.

"Scooby's speech, wow, how emotional and inspirational," Miller said. "To hear him talk about his dad, I certainly hope the kids took that to heart."

With the game well in hand to start the second half, the Buccaneer varsity unit saw just one possession in the second half and senior Justin Williams capped an impressive opening drive with a four-yard run to push the lead to 44-0.

The junior varsity took over and the Buccaneers never missed a beat as freshman Deron White broke free up the middle for a 60-yard touchdown

run just seconds into the fourth quarter.

Branden Robinson, another freshman, recovered a Mississinawa Valley fumble on the ensuing kickoff and the very next play Nathan Blei raced around the left end to score from 23 yards away to make the final score 560 in favor of Covington.

"This was a special night and the kids did what they had to do," said Miller. "Our defense and kick coverage was better tonight and that's something we've been working on. We made some mistakes in other areas that we need to address, but overall we played pretty well."

Covington improves to 3-0 on the season and 2-0 in the Cross County Conference with a huge matchup at Bethel next week on the horizon.

First, Ouellette scored on a 23-yard run and then returned a punt 97 yards for the score.

The senior followed with a 10-yard pass to Zakk Collins and closed out his evening with a 53yard run.

Freshman Nathan Blei capped the first half with an 18-yard run "We did what we had to do by jumping on them early," Miller explained.

"The kids played hard all night. I didn't see us take any plays off."

Brewers rally stuns Reds in ninth inning

Halton homer caps Milwaukee comeback MILWAUKEE (AP) — Sean Halton hit a solo homer with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-5 comeback victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

Halton's home run came off reliever Zach Duke (1-2), the fifth Cincinnati pitcher. It was Halton's third homer of the season and first career walk-off.

Jean Segura sparked a rally with a two-run triple and Carlos Gomez made a game-saving catch for Milwaukee, which dealt a big blow to the Reds' pursuit of the NL Central title.

The Brewers entered the

eighth trailing 5-2. Segura's hit came after Reds relievers walked the first two batters of the inning.

Jonathan Lucroy followed with a sacrifice fly to tie it.

Jim Henderson (4-5) pitched a scoreless inning in relief to pick up the win.

Gomez robbed Jay Bruce of what would have been a three-run homer in the ninth when he extended over the center field fence with two outs.

The Brewers survived a shaky outing by starter Yovani Gallardo, who was tagged for five runs on seven hits over six innings. He walked three and struck out five.

Reds starter Bronson Arroyo pitched effectively into the seventh, surrendering two runs on three hits over 6 1-3 innings. He walked four, struck out one and didn't give up a hit until Segura singled leading off the fourth.

The Reds, who lead the NL wild card race and remain in the hunt for a division title, got on the board in the first inning when Gallardo labored through a 39-pitch inning.

Brandon Phillips had a run-scoring single, Ryan Ludwick drew a basesloaded walk and Zach Cozart delivered a sacrifice fly to help the Reds jump out to a 3-0 lead.

You're also physically tough, logical and practical. People know you're reliable and that you get the job done.

Pakistan YouTube ban faces court action REBECCA SANTANA Associated Press

ISLAMABAD (AP) — ToffeeTV has hit an unexpected snag. The Internet startup depended on YouTube to promote “Hokey-Pokey,” ”The Umm Nyum Nyum Song” and other language-teaching clips it produces for children, but the videosharing website has been banned in Pakistan for nearly a year.

The measure was imposed to block videos that Muslims took as insulting and blasphemous. But the unintended consequence has been frustration for many companies, educators and students. A petition to end Internet censorship is before a Pakistani court, and a debate has been rekindled over how to reconcile the right to a free flow of information with a widespread public sentiment that Islam needs special protections.

ToffeeTV has had to save its clips on its own servers and delay the rollout of its apps, says company co-founder Rabia Garib. “It threw us off our feet,” she said. “We’re off schedule by about eight months.”

While the tech-savvy have ways to get around the ban, the vast majority of Pakistanis who try to view YouTube get this: “Surf Safely! … The site you are trying to access contains content that is prohibited for viewership from within Pakistan.”

The made-in-America trailer for “Innocence of Muslims,” the movie of which has never reached cinemas, provoked uproar throughout the Muslim world, and several U.S. diplomatic missions were targeted. In Pakistan, clashes between police and protesters left 19 people dead.

YouTube as well as Facebook were initially blocked although the government soon exempted Facebook, saying it removed the offensive material. At the time, U.S. President Barack Obama’s administration asked Google, YouTube’s parent, to take down the video. But the company refused, saying the trailer didn’t violate its content standards.

The only other countries that block YouTube are Tajikistan, China and Iran, according to Google’s transparency report that tracks restrictions of its products.

Another 56 countries

have localized versions of YouTube that allow for tailoring content to local standards.

Pakistan, a nation of roughly 180 million, has a democratically elected government and a legal system inherited from its former British rulers.

But that system also contains significant religious strictures, and disputes over religion frequently end in bloodshed. So at the time the YouTube ban was imposed, many saw it as a necessary calming measure.

Now an advocacy group called Bytes for All is petitioning the Lahore High Court to order an end to all Internet censorship.

Muzzling YouTube “could lead to the opening up of an entire Pandora’s box of moral policing and dictatorial controls despite the democracy being in place,” said Furhan Hussain of Bytes for All. At the organization’s Islamabad offices, activists say the YouTube case is just the latest example.

Over the years the government has periodically banned Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr, but the YouTube ban has lasted the longest.

It can be circumvented via VPNs, virtual private networks that mask the user’s computer but are prone to viruses and slow the Internet connection.

These proxies are too cumbersome for his staff to deal with, says Jawwad Ahmed Farid, founder and CEO of Karachi-based Alchemy Technologies, which does risk-management training for financial professionals.

It posts short videos of its classes on YouTube to attract business, but uploads fewer of them following the ban, and the volume of Pakistani customers referred through YouTube has fallen, Farid said. “My team finds it very difficult to work with all the proxies in place. It certainly slows it down a bit,” he said.

Sidra Qasim is coCEO of HOMETOWN, a Lahore-based company that helps leather workers to market products such as shoes and belts online.

It used YouTube to reach customers and also to teach the workers new techniques. “Now that training part is stopped totally,” she said.

A committee of officials from various ministries is looking for solutions and will make the decision on whether to unblock

YouTube. But experts aren’t sure a technical solution even exists, and Bytes for All and others say that even if the government comes up with a filtering mechanism, they will continue to resist it as censorship.

Kamran Ali, a spokesman for the Ministry of Internet Technology, acknowledged that the ban can be a hardship but said the government must weigh freedom of information against offending the public.

“It’s a Muslim country, and this video clearly violates the religious sentiments of the people of Pakistan,” he said.

At Air University in Islamabad, some students supported a governmentimposed filter. “If they are able to control this blasphemous material that would be a good step,” said Waqar urRehman, 21.

But they recognized the difficulty of actually coming up with a system, and some argued against any restrictions, if only because they could be evaded.

“I think the ban shouldn’t have been there. It (the movie) hurt a lot of religious sentiments, mine as well, but it was not the right way to do it, because there are so many ways to go around it,” said Palwasha Khursheed, who studies electrical engineering.

Hafiz Hussain Ahmed, a Muslim cleric, acknowledged the ban was porous, and said Pakistan was missing an opportunity to use technology such as YouTube to educate people about Islam.

He urged the government to lift the ban, but only after installing filters, saying, “We must not allow anyone to attack our cultural values.”

One solution would be a localized version of YouTube for Pakistan.

But Google would need immunity from prosecution for any offending content, and Pakistani law so far doesn’t allow for such an arrangement.

“It is Google’s goal to offer local versions of YouTube to more places worldwide, but it takes time,” said Google in a statement to The Associated Press in request for comment about the court case.

“The localization process can be lengthy as we research laws and build relationships with local content creators.”
