Bradford Continued from page 1 of putting food together for a family where they will purchase such staples as meat, bread, potatoes, noodles, sugar, flour, eggs, margarine and milk before adding canned items from their pantry.

They also try to give a package of toilet paper and paper towels, with items given based on the size of the family. There are stipulations that they must live in the Bradford School District and show proof of income, along with proof residency.

Jess and Yount have been co-directors of the program since 2003. Yount explained how the program was literally dropped in their laps, with no records or direction.

“We were flying by the seat of our pants,” Jess said on how the two set up guidelines, with the blessings of the BAAC, that allows them to serve so many in need.

The duo also purchase Christmas toys for families in need.

“Depending on how much money we get we divide the toy money by the children, and they all get the same amount spent on them,” said Jess with a smile as the fun part is being able to buy toys for the kids.

Last year Jess and Yount were able to buy toys for 32 children.

They even help with rent and utilities with $50 given every six months.

“It’s gotten bigger,” said Yount on the number of families being assisted

Mary Alice Yount, left, and Debby Jess, co-directors of the BAAC Resource Center, stand in front of donated canned goods given to Bradford area residents in need. The center serves about 20 families per month thanks to the generous donations of area churches, families and organizations but are asking for assistance due to dwindling supplies.

Items to donate: canned fruit, applesauce, pears, peaches or fruit cocktail, canned vegetables, peas, corn, green beans, pork and beans, kidney beans, canned soup, chicken noodle, vegetable, mushroom and tomato, spaghetti and spaghetti sauce, macaroni and cheese, elbow macaroni, noodles, peanut butter, jelly, vegetable oil, sugar, flour, four-pack toilet paper, single rolls of paper towels and tuna.

Occasional items: cake mixes, potato dinners, cereal, Ramen, dish soap and frosting.

helps tremendously with non-perishable food drives but with serving so many families on a monthly basis it doesn’t take long for the shelves to start getting empty, especially during this time of year when they prepare Christmas baskets.

“Christmas baskets we limit what we can give,” said Jess. During the season they also given vouchers to be used at Patty’s IGA for specific items.

“These shelves will be getting pretty bare down here within the next month, even before Christmas,” said Yount.

“That’s the scary part, are we going to have enough to fill the Christmas baskets?” said Jess and that they do not put the call out for help until

“we’re at the desperation point. We don’t want to, if we don’t have to, sometimes you have to.”

The group did receive help from the Church of the Brethren Bible schools that lasted for a month into two.

But with having served 130 families since January and expecting to help many more this season, the call for help is out.

“It’s scary,” said Yount.

“But you know, there’s someone up above us that looks out for us.”

Forms for those who are in need of the BAAC food program, Christmas baskets and Christmas gifts for children are available at area churches, the Bradford library and school or from either Mary Alice Yount or Debby Jess and are due by Nov. 20.

Dehus also recommended having a top list of things one wants to accomplish in their life, or a bucket list.

For Dehus, she created a list of 100 things she wanted to do back in high school and one of the first things was to run a marathon. It was something she fell in love with after being selected to carry the Olympic Torch for the Olympic Games Torch Relay in 2002.

“If there are children in the family we buy hot dogs, because you can make a meal out of hot dogs and macaroni and cheese for the kids,” said Yount, who explained how the donations for the food pantry come from many sources, such as a dedicated family in Piqua that sends money and a church that helps out of Troy.

Women Continued from page 1 The awards are presented to women in the area who have shown outstanding dedication to their community and career through distinguished activities.

The first recipient of the afternoon was Beamish, a graduate of Heidelberg University in Tiffin who began her teaching career in 1970 at Hook Elementary in Troy.

After staying home for five years with her three children, Beamish returned to the teaching field as the first kindergarten teacher for the Overfield Early Childhood Program and would hold that position until 2002 when she joined the Upper Valley Career Center as a senior level early childhood education care and instructor before retiring this year.

Using a necklace created from baubles by former students that she cherishes, Beamish spoke on how such beads represent different moments in her life’s journey.

“Day by day we string our own necklaces,” said Beamish to those in attendance, including former Woman of Excellence recipients along with family and friends. “Because we are all intertwined and we are all a part of each other’s necklaces, I have been named a Woman of Excellence because of all those who have touched my life. I thank all of you,” Beamish said.

Beamish is involved with many activities including an organist at St. John’s United Church of Christ, president of the church council, founder of the lawn chair drill team and many other programs.

She was nominated by Upper Valley Career Center supervisor, Stephanie Johnson.

Cincinnati native Engel also spoke at the luncheon as a recipient due to her contributions as cofounder of the American Veterans Institute and supporter to veteran’s affairs.

Gadhafi Continued from page 1 “We have been waiting for this historic moment for a long time. Moammar Gadhafi has been killed,” Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril said in the capital of Tripoli. “I would like to call on Libyans to put aside the grudges and only say one word, which is Libya, Libya, Libya.”

President Barack Obama told the Libyan people: “You have won your revolution.”

Although the U.S. briefly led the relentless NATO bombing campaign that sealed Gadhafi’s fate, Washington later took a secondary role to its allies.

Britain and France said they hoped that his death would lead to a more democratic Libya.

Other leaders have fallen in the Arab Spring uprisings, but the 69-yearold Gadhafi is the first to be killed. He was shot to death in his hometown of Sirte, where revolutionary fighters overwhelmed the last of his loyalist supporters Thursday after weeks of heavy battles.

Also killed in the city was one of his feared sons, Muatassim, while another son one-time heir apparent Seif al-Islam was wounded and captured.

An AP reporter saw cigarette burns on Muatassim’s body.

Bloody images of Gadhafi’s last moments raised questions over how exactly he died after he was captured wounded, but alive. Video on Arab television stations showed a crowd of fighters shoving and pulling the goateed, balding Gadhafi, with blood splattered on his face and soaking his shirt.

Gadhafi struggled against them, stumbling and shouting as the fighters pushed him onto the hood of a pickup truck.

One fighter held him down, pressing on his thigh with a pair of shoes in a show of contempt.

Fighters propped him on the hood as they drive for several moments, apparently to parade him around in victory.

“We want him alive. We want him alive,” one man shouted before Gadhafi was dragged off the hood, some fighters pulling his hair, toward an ambulance.

Purple Heart Continued from page 1 sister Nancy Sherwood Headley, 78, of Piqua, and Mr. Sherwood’s nephew, James “Jim” Sherwood, who is named in honor of the fallen veteran.

After the story was first published, Campbell and Headley conversed with one another and now the Purple Heart has been mailed to Piqua by Campbell. The prestigious medal is now where it belongs — with relatives and loved ones.

Since the time the original article was published, additional details have come to light regarding Mr. Sherwood, 20, a private first class in the Army who died March 12, 1945.

And while historical documents say Mr. Sherwood, the son of the late Eldon and Laura Sherwood, suffered shrapnel wounds in Belgium in October 1944, that is not what caused his death.

Headley said her brother died as a prisoner of war at arguably the worst Nazi prison in operation during World War II. For that, Mr. Sherwood was posthumously awarded with a second Purple Heart, which the Sherwood family already had in their possession.

But — and here is where it gets really interesting — unknown to the entire Sherwood family, Mr. Sherwood did not just receive one Purple Heart for his service to his country, but two.

Headley said she, and the rest of the family, was unaware her brother was awarded a second Purple Heart until she read about it in the newspaper.

In an interview, Headley put all of the pieces together.

Mr. Sherwood sustained shrapnel wounds in Belgium and was hospitalized as reported, but did not die

from those wounds. He was awarded a Purple Heart while in the hospital — the same Purple Heart that wound up in the attic of Campbell’s aunt.

Rather, Headley said, Mr. Sherwood was called up for duty despite his injuries a week after he suffered them and took part in the Battle of the Bulge on the frontline in December 1944. During that battle, he was injured and captured as a prisoner of war by the Nazis and was imprisoned at Stalag IX-B (commonly referred to as Bad Orb) where he eventually perished as a result of pneumonia and malnutrition.

Two weeks later, the prison camp was liberated.

Headley, only 10 years old at the time, said the family learned of his death a month later through a telegram sent by the War Department. Mr. Sherwood’s remains were sent home to the family three years later.

Mr. Sherwood is buried in the Forest Hill Cemetery in Piqua.

Headley added that when her brother’s personal effects were mailed home all those decades ago, they contained a mysterious empty box that appeared to have been for a medal of some kind. Little did she know at the time, however, that it was the box that contained the what is now known as the missing Purple Heart.

As for how the first Purple Heart that Mr. Sherwood received somehow managed to turn up in an Iowa attic more than half a century later is a mystery that Headley and Campbell can only speculate.

However, both believe that Campbell’s uncle who lived in Iowa and served in World War II was in Belgium at the time of Mr. Sherwood’s hospitaliza-

Kiwanis plans Halloween parade

PIQUA — Ghosts and Goblins — Princes and Princesses. It’s that time of year again — the Annual Piqua Kiwanis Halloween Parade is gearing up for another exciting night on Wednesday, Oct. 26. This is the 55th annual parade, which was begun in 1956,

by Joe Thoma Jr. The evening’s festivities will begin with judging of costumes promptly at 6:15 p.m. in the Fifth Third Bank parking lot on Market Street in Piqua with the parade starting at 7 p.m.

Costumes will be judged for children up to age 14 years old in 11 categories: Most Original, Best Couple, Funniest, Prettiest, Ugliest, Scariest, Science Fiction, Historical/Political, Princesses, 3 Years Old & Under, and High School Band. First, second, and third prize winners will be chosen in each category with prizes of $20, $10, and $5. Two grand prizes sponsored by Unity Bank, a girl’s bike and a boy’s bike along with helmets, will be given to the outstanding costumes chosen by the

judges. Prizes and treats will be given to the children at the end of the parade on the YMCA front porch.

Co-chairs of the event, Dwayne Cooper and Doug Francony, say they are looking forward to a fun event

for the youth in Piqua.

Anyone interested in finding more out about the Kiwanis Club is invited to call Brian Phillips at 7781586. Kiwanis meets at noon on Wednesdays at The Learning Place in Piqua.

Happy 70th Anniversary

Lloyd and Virginia Smith will be celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary with an open house hosted by their children and grandchildren.

Friends and family are invited to share in the celebration from 2-4 pm in the ballroom of the Fort Piqua Plaza Hotel on Sunday, October 23, 2011.

tion, and that somehow Mr. Sherwood gave it to Campbell’s uncle, be it for safe keeping or a gesture of kindness.

“I don’t know for sure how it ended up in Iowa,” Headley said. “But I asked Mr. Campbell if his uncle served, and he said he did, and that he was stationed in Belgium. We are thinking that (my brother and Campbell’s uncle) crossed paths somehow and (Campbell’s uncle) ended up taking care of the (first) Purple Heart.”

James “Jim” Sherwood, 52, who lives in Indiana, but grew up in Piqua, said his parents named him after Mr. Sherwood.

He said he had the leather-bound box the missing Purple Heart belonged in all of these years and was shocked to read the Oct. 8 article on Mr. Sherwood.

“I was surprised and really glad (Campbell) found the Purple Heart,” Sherwood said. “I am glad it’s going to be returned to the family.”

high school secretary Christine Crawford was the EMIS coordinator until her resignation. Larson said the district is looking into moving the EMIS position to the IT department. With this addition, Levi Smith, technology assistant, will be hired full time. Currently, Smith serves the district three days a week.

“We’re still not going to be spending as much as we were with Mrs. Crawford,” Larson said.

A special board meeting will be held the first week in November to discuss details of moving the EMIS coordinator role to IT. High school Principal Ken Miller has been looking into replacing Crawford in the secretary role. Board members will hear his recommendation at this special meeting. A time and date have not been set.

Through an initiative of the governor, schools are being asked to complete a survey about what services they share, such as employees coming to the district through the Miami County Educational Service Center. The goal is to get a best practices guide that will save local governments money. Covington plans to fill the survey out next week.

Middle school Principal Josh Long told the board about seventh-grader Ashley Anthony through the

student spotlight. Anthony is the daughter of Connie and Jerry Anthony and was chosen to attend the Wooster Music Camp at Wooster College and in August she recorded her first song. She was asked to sign a guitar on the wall of fame along with Rascal Flatts and other artists in the Country Music Hall of Fame. In addition to singing, Anthony plays the piano, saxophone, flute, trumpet, french horn and most of the percussion instruments.

Also during the meeting, the board accepted the retirement recommendation for Suzanne Bunn. Bunn has taught first grade at Covington for 22 years. Before coming to Covington, she taught kindergarten for seven years in Troy and preschool for three years at Troy Christian.

“We have teachers and then we have great teachers, and you’re one of the great ones,” board president Dr. Dean Pond said to Bunn as he presented her with a gift.

Bunn’s husband, John shared that although she taught her students in first grade, she often receives invitations to their graduation parties 11 years later.

A State of the Schools address will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Covington High School. The board will meet again for regular session at 6 p.m. Nov. 17 at the board office.

“They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.”

Jeremiah 6:14 AKJV

To the Editor: We hear a lot about government waste these days, yet we never consider it waste when it is used to improve our children, youth and community. We have before us now, a great opportunity to insure quality facilities for our schools, for years to come, at a greatly reduced price.

Vote “yes” for Piqua’s schools on Nov. 8.

Seven secrets of success W

ould you like to make the big bucks writing a self-help book on how to be successful? Here are seven secrets you have to know: 1. Use the word “secret” in your title, even though you’re not revealing anything remotely secret. Just because you don’t know something, doesn’t mean it’s a secret. I don’t know particle physics, but it’s not a big secret. I don’t know how to cook a goose, but it’s not a secret. But if you want to sell a goose cookbook, call it “The Seven Secrets of Cooking Your Goose.”

2. Do you want to know the secret of how to make a million dollars on Wall Street? It’s not really a secret; you simply start out with $2 million. In no time, you’ll have a million dollars. Don’t get greedy and try to make half a million dollars. Once you have your million, quit.

3. When you say “secret,” what the reader hears is “trick.” What’s the trick to making millions? Here it is: Pick rich parents. This, more than any one thing you can do, will make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.

Sadly, you won’t appreciate it. You will spend most of that money on therapy, complaining about your rich parents.

When you say “success,” make sure that you mean “making a lot of money.” Sure, getting four kids through college on, say, a teacher’s salary is a thousand times harder than running a Fortune 500 company. But no one considers that a “success” because you’re not living in a $10 million mansion with your fourth wife and spoiled children who hate you. That’s success.

JIM MULLEN 4. Give plenty of examples Columnist of successful people. Tell the stories of how they started out in the mail room and, through grit and determination, clawed their way to the top over the backs of other people with the same grit and determination — people who were fired as soon as possible so they wouldn’t be a threat to their success.

5. Don’t mention how miserable the quest for success has made them. The drive that makes people like Tiger Woods successful is the same thing that derails them.

As much as we seem to enjoy reading about the celebrity meltdowns of Charlie Sheen, Michael Jackson, Roseanne Barr, Eliot Spitzer, Pete Rose and a thousand other “successful” people, we don’t take away the real message that success has not made them happy. If anything, just the opposite.

6. Talk about their possessions — the cars, the homes, the yachts, the private jets, the horse ranch and the art that successful people have. Don’t mention the craziness of owning more than you can possibly use. If you can eat only one hamburger, why would you go to a restaurant and order 50 hamburgers? To show off? Because you’re out of your mind? Either way, no one would think, “That’s the kind of person I want running my business.”

Steve Jobs was famous for living in a near-empty house. He created not one, but three billion-dollar businesses — Apple, NeXT and Pixar. He paid himself a dollar a year. He created tens of thousands of jobs.

The CEOs of our car companies did not invent the car or the assembly line. The CEOs of our banks did not create the idea of banking or the banks. The CEOs of stock brokerages did not invent stocks. They’ve lost us hundreds of thousands of jobs, yet they pay themselves tens of millions of dollars. Gee, what is the secret to their success? Whatever it is, let’s do the opposite.

7. Always have seven secrets in the title of your book.

Six seems too easy, like you’re holding back. Eight seems too many. I want to be wildly successful, but learning eight whole secrets? Sheesh, that too hard.

Letters to the Editor

Shopper says Miami East student seeks levy support thanks to To the Editor: pass? We would have to make even fur- honest man My name is Megan Pettit and I go to ther cuts than we’ve already had to Miami East Junior High. I am involved n many school activities such as Honor Choir, National Junior Honor Society and I am the president of the Chain Links Team. I also play many sports and take many advanced classes.

As you may be aware, Miami East Local Schools has an income tax levy on the ballot on Nov. 8. You’re probably asking yourself, “Why should I vote for this levy when they just built a new school?”

Well, it’s important for the people to understand that the funding for the new building has to be kept separate from the operating costs. By voting yes, the 1.00 percent traditional income tax would be replaced with a 1.75 percent income tax.

Considering I’m only in eighth grade, all of these numbers confuse me a little bit, but what it means is taxes are based on earned income. This is especially good for senior citizens who get most of their income from Social Security and pensions. Some senior citizens may see their taxes for down if this levy passes.

What would happen if this levy doesn’t

make. For example, we would lose all AP/Advanced classes, all field trips would be canceled, many teachers would lose their jobs, class sizes would increase in students, sports fees would skyrocket up to about $700 a sport, no junior high sports, and no choir or band. I can’t even imagine this — it would be terrible.

As a student, I feel so lucky to be able to attend such a phenomenal school.

We’ve earned the Excellent with Distinction rating for the last four years. Also, the teachers are amazing. They care about every student and strive for you to do your best. Our sports teams continue to do well and our Junior High Honor Choir recently received a 1 or superior rating in the OMEA Choir Contest.

Think of your children, grandchildren, neighbors, friends and the children in today’s society that you’d be helping by voting ‘yes’ on Nov. 8. Every vote counts and we need your vote.

Thanks in advance for saving my school.

—Megan Pettit Fletcher

Voters urged to vote ‘yes’ for levy To the Editor: Mrs. Kimmel, Mrs. Shields, Mrs. Shaw, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs. Kloffer, Mr. Robbins, Mr. Futrell, Mr. Bobbs, Mr. Brelsford, Mr. Hill, Mrs. Nuenswander, Mr. Purk, Mr. Voorhees, Mr. Reed, Mr. Lester, Mrs. Geiger, Mrs. McCorkle, Mr. Tamplin, Mrs. Wilson, Mr. Mauk, Mr. Carter, Mr. Hardman, Mrs. Preston, Mr. Meek, Mr. Meaux, Mr. Zeller and Mr. Montgomery were my teachers as I was growing up in Piqua.

They were good teachers at Washington Township School, Wilder Junior High School, and Piqua Central High School. They taught with passion for their subjects. Many thousands, and my-

self, found our way to secondary education and or good careers with their help.

Many of these fine people have passed away or retired, but they left their students lasting memories and life long skills.

Our schools, like these fine teachers, have gotten older and we need a few new schools to replace several older ones.

Consolidation of schools, a 6.5 acre lot, less up-keep, and having the state help on about half the cost seems like good common sense. Please vote “yes” for the school levy on Nov. 8 to keep our future strong and prosperous for our children.

All hail the puppet queen — Cheryl Henson

Rules change between daughter and dad as little girl grows up

MARK KENNEDY

DEAR ABBY: My preteen daughter, “Avery,” has started developing a more mature figure. She recently told me privately that one night while I was in class, her father smacked her on the bottom and started playing with the back pockets on her jeans. It made her uncomfortable. very When Avery asked him to stop, he told her that she’s his “baby girl” and he could smack her “cute little butt” if he wants to.

I think my husband truly believed it was OK and didn’t mean (at least consciously) to touch her inappropriately. But if it bothered Avery, it can’t continue.

I’m afraid I’ll overreact if I try to discuss this with him. I was sexually abused by a relative when I was a young teenager. This relative also said that because he was related to me he could touch me in whatever way he wanted. To further complicate matters, my husband refuses me in bed.

If there’s trouble brewing, I want to stop it now, but I don’t want to come off as a freaked-out, paranoid former victim seeing abuse where it may be total innocence.

Any suggestions?

— UNEASY IN INDIANA

AP Drama Writer NEW YORK (AP) — Maybe no one told Big Bird and Telly Monster how to get to Sesame Street.

There they were in Times Square, sharing a stage with a drag performer in women’s underwear singing alongside two devil puppets, the puppet foal Joey from “War Horse” and a 5-yearold sock puppet who survives on candy.

What connected these very different acts was wearing a red silk gown and a smile: Cheryl Henson, the daughter of uberpuppeteer Jim Henson and the president of The Jim Henson Foundation.

Henson received the second annual New Victory Arts Award at a gala this week and a dizzying array of puppeteers came to honor a woman who has become a key cheerleader for puppet artists and a promoter of puppets in arts education.

“She was really the first person I can think of who brought puppeteering in New York City especially — but in many ways all over the country — out into the mainstream,” said John Tartaglia, who earned a Tony Award nomination for his puppetry in “Avenue Q” and acted as

than words these days.”

There are more puppets on the way: Teatro SEA, the city’s only Latino Children’s theater company, will later this month offer the all-puppet “The Legends of the Enchanted Treasure” that explores folklore of the indigenous people of the Americas.

Plus, Theater for the New City is hosting a puppet festival from Dec. 8-19.

At The Brooklyn Academy of Music, there’s not only a puppet film festival kicking off next month, but the academy will also be home of the marionettedriven show “69 S” about explorer Ernest Shackleton.

La MaMa Experimental Theater Club is also getting into the act by reprising in November the Czechoslovak-American Theatre’s Marionette “Golem,” a rendition of the Jewish legend. And next month, the Soho arts complex HERE will present “Sonnambula,” a look at a Bellini opera that mixes puppetry and human movement.

The puppet-heavy emphasis on city stages is part of a wider cultural embrace. Puppets are all over TV commercials (LeBron James and Kobe Bryant appeared in Nike commercials) and in feature films, including the Disney reboot “The Muppets” opening in November, and “Being Elmo,” a documentary about a puppeteer that became a Sundance Film Festival favorite.

All have some connection to Cheryl Henson.

the charity event host at the New Victory Theatre.

Henson, the second child of Jim and Jane Henson, has seen interest in puppetry soar over the years, thanks in part to the Jim Henson Foundation, which has awarded over 600 grants to more than 270 American puppet artists since 1982.

“There are just a lot of puppets out there right now. There’s no question about it. Puppetry has captured the popular imagination,” said Henson. “It’s a beautiful flowering of seeds that have been planted over the last 20 years.”

Puppets are clearly pulling the strings in entertainment for both adults and kids, from the off-Broadway shows “Avenue Q” and “Arias With a Twist” and “The Little Prince” to the Broadway shows “The Addams Family,” ”The Lion King,” ”Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark” and “War Horse.”

“I think the reason why there’s so much happening in puppetry is that it is such a visual medium. It sparks the imagination, it’s enticing to the audience. There’s a direct connection between the creators and the audience,” Henson says. “People understand story through images even more

the madcap revue “Arias With a Twist,” said much of his career has been aided by Henson. “She has a beautiful spirit and she’s very encouraging person,” he said.

Tartaglia, who made his debut as a puppeteer with “The Muppets” at age 16 and recently co-wrote the musical “ImaginOcean,” said at Monday’s gala that since puppets are often abstract representations of human life, they are an effective way to get across emotion.

“There’s something that you can’t put into words about how a puppet brings out the child in you and affects you,” said Tartaglia.

“I think in a world where everything is becoming flat and computerized and digital, we all want to reach out and touch that.”

Puppets are in the Henson family’s blood. A retrospective of Jim Henson’s work has landed at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens and Cheryl’s sister, Heather, runs Ibex Puppetry. She performed an excerpt from “Celebration of Flight” on Monday with large-scale kite puppets.

Cheryl Henson, herself a puppet builder who defines puppetry as the act of bringing an object to life, said there’s no limit to their use, from marionettes to shadow puppets to her dad’s hand-and-rod puppets.

“It works really well for humor. It works really well for politics. And it works really well for dreams, psychosis and insanity,” she said, pointing to the recent staging of Rinne Groff’s “Compulsion” at The Public Theater which starred Mandy Patinkin opposite a 3-foot-tall marionette who represented Anne Frank.

“Puppetry spans such a wide range of styles and tones,” said Henson. “It can go wherever the human imagination takes it. It’s a medium, it’s an art form.

It’s all up to the artists and where they take it.”

■ Contract Bridge — By Steve Becker

Bidding quiz rebids three notrump, indicating heart strength, you plan to pass, while if he bids four clubs or four diamonds, you will raise to five.

3. Double. Game is not certain, so it is best to grab the sure profit. You can probably beat two diamonds two or three tricks.

4. Four diamonds. Slam is certainly a possibility, and the question is how to try to reach it without jeopardizing your game.

Four diamonds shows first-round control of that suit and interest in a slam; if you were inter-

ested only in game, you would bid five clubs over four.

The next step is up to partner. If he bids four spades or four notrump, you are on your way to six, but if all he does is bid five clubs, you must withdraw because of the possibility of losing two spade tricks.

Tomorrow: Solution to a dilemma.

1. Four spades. You could double and beat two clubs badly if the bidding ended there, but your double would have to survive a pass by each of the oth-

ers at the table before you could start counting your chickens. It is more likely that your opponents will discover a heart or diamond fit — perhaps quite a good one — if you double, and it is therefore better to leap directly to four spades.

2. Three hearts. Most players treat two spades or three clubs in this sequence as competitive and not forcing, so it is better to make a bid that leads to game. You hope partner will answer three hearts with three spades, in which case you will happily raise him to four. If he

DEAR UNEASY: Yes. Listen to your gut. Tell your daughter you’re glad she told you what happened, and you want her to come to you anytime ANYONE makes her feel uncomfortable.

No one has the right to touch her if she doesn’t want to be. And because what her father did made her uncomfortable, her “cute little butt” is off limits.

If your husband gives you an argument, insist on professional counseling for the two of you. He may be slow to realize that his little girl is growing up and the rules have changed. A licensed counselor will not come off as a “freaked-out, paranoid former victim” and can help him to understand that his behavior should not be repeated. And while you’re at it, raise the issue of your sex life so you will have a clearer understanding of why it is the way it is.

Edison’s Nursing Program earns highest award PIQUA — Edison Community College’s Nursing Program, in its 31st year, has earned the highest level of accreditation a program can receive from the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC).

“We’ve been awarded an accreditation for the next eight years, the highest we can attain,” said Gwen Stevenson, dean of Public Health and Service for Edison. “This is the fourth time that the college’s nursing program has been granted this, the first coming in 1987. We then received it in 1995 and again in 2003. We’ve held that accreditation ever since.”

The NLNAC accreditation certificate will be valid up until 2019. On its web site, the NLNAC champions its accreditation process as a way of helping to heighten faculty and system awareness and responsiveness to areas needing improvement, and as a tool for asin student sisting recruitment. It is also a benefit to employers in medical fields who are seeking graduates who have the skills necessary to become competent practitioners.

The entire nursing faculty at Edison was involved in the process of working with the NLNAC prior to the February 2011 site visit. The process began in January of 2010 with the development of sub committees tasked with putting together a self-study. In early 2011,

According to its website, the NLNAC is responsible for the specialized accreditation of nursing education programs (Clinical Doctorate, Master’s, Baccalaureate, Associate, Diploma, and Practical programs). The Commission has authority and accountability for carrying out the responsibilities inherent in the application of standards and criteria, accreditation processes, and the affairs, management, policy-making, and general administration of the NLNAC. The organization is na-

tionally recognized as a specialized accrediting agency for both post-secondary and higher degree programs.

At a time when nursing programs around the country are coming under fire for failing to maintain standards that are required to hold accreditation, Edison’s program has shown a remarkably consistent record of quality.

“Students coming in here have the assurance that we have met the standards set forth for excellence in nursing education,” Stevenson said.

“Going through this process gives Edison an opportunity to examine

our program and measure ourselves against the standards.”

Those standards and the outstanding reputation of Edison’s nursing faculty and curriculum are what continue to drive students to the program, and why the program has continued its long history of success.

Edison’s Nursing Program received accolades at the end of 2010, with the announcement that 100 percent of the spring graduates had passed the National Council LicensExamination ing (NCLEX). In January 2010, 59 new students started the program.

formed for K-2 with fourth and fifth-graders as helpers.

Also announced, by Principal Judi York, was that the principal’s fundraiser (which happens only every other year) raised 10 percent more than last time. This fund pays for all different types of incentives for the elementary kids.

Both principals talked about the various intervention methods being used to help students learn. “One on one seems to be working the best,” stated high school principal PJ Burgett.

The board also approved a three-year contract renewal for Dawnna Cron, district treasurer, which will extend her contract through July 31, 2015. No details were discussed.

The board also briefly

discussed a number of rule changes being made by the state. “Most are just a word change here or there,” said Superintendent Jeff Patrick Patrick did explain that the “new” sick leave policy will allow a maximum of 215 accumulated days and allow for a transfer of up to 120 days from another district. This will be for all employees (administration, classified or non-classified).

The board adjourned into executive session to discuss employee issues.

The next board meeting will be 7 p.m., Nov. 16 in room 404.

Buck Eyes An inside look at Ohio State football

Grading the Buckeyes High marks not abundant at mid season something out of just a bad throw the way Dane Sanzenbacher could last year.

Grade: D

By JIM NAVEAU jnaveau@limanews.com 419-993-2087 COLUMBUS — Ohio State’s football team has had quite a few tests already this season and some of them have come back with red marks all over them.

This week brings an off week for the Buckeyes after a 17-7 win at Illinois last Saturday. Then they take on Wisconsin in a night game at Ohio Stadium.

Before that, though, it’s time for some mid-term grades for the first half of a sometimes trying season that has followed a tumultuous offseason.

Here’s how OSU has graded out so far: QUARTERBACKS Braxton Miller has played well in his last two games, against Nebraska before he suffered a sprained ankle and at Illinois. He is a threat as a runner but his passing still has a long way to go. He might be all that is standing between Ohio State and complete disaster at quarterback, though.

If there were an award for least accurate Ohio State quarterback ever, his backup Joe Bauserman would have retired the trophy with several throws that had people in the third row ducking to get out of the way.

Grade: C-

OFFENSIVE LINE Consistency has not been the calling card of this group.

Even in an overall good game at Illinois, they blocked well in the running game but allowed four sacks. Getting left tackle Mike Adams back from his five-game suspension the last two weeks has brought immediate improvement.

However, OSU’s nine rushing touchdowns are tied for ninth in the Big Ten and the 19 sacks it has allowed are tied for 11th. Only Indiana has given up more sacks in the Big Ten. Grade: C-

SPECIAL TEAMS Drew Basil (8 for 10 on field goals) and punter Ben Buchanan (41.3) have been reliable. Basil has hit his last eight field goal attempts in a row after missing the first four attempts of his career dating back to last season.

Kick returns and kick coverage have been good. By this time last season, Ohio State had given up three kick or punt returns for touchdowns with a season-shattering kickoff return by Wisconsin still in the future.

Grade: B

DEFENSIVE LINE John Simon (3 sacks, 7.5 tackles for losses) and Johnathan Hankins (2 sacks, 6.5 tackles for losses) give opposing offensive lines a lot to think about. But with end Nathan Williams out for the season after two knee surgeries, there is a major gap in the pass rush department. To try to compensate for that, OSU has moved the versatile Simon around to different positions on the line.

Grade: B

Head Coach Luke Fickell

LINEBACKERS

Andrew Sweat (43 tackles, 5 tackles for losses) has filled some of the sizable hole left when Brian Rolle and Ross Homan Quite a few people predicted Dan Herron could lose his spot as Ohio State’s No. 1 running back before he returned departed, but first-year starters Etienne from an NCAA suspension. But the reality of Carlos Hyde, Sabino and Storm Klein and the rest of the linebackers appear to be learning on the Jordan Hall and Rod Smith hasn’t lived up to the hype.

Herron returned with a big game at Illinois when he rushed job.

Freshman Ryan Shazier looks like a for 114 yards and scored a touchdown. player who could get more playing time Hyde and Hall have been adequate as fill-ins, but the the second half of the season. Highly much-anticipated Smith has not been seen much since touted freshman Curtis Grant has not losing fumbles in the first two games. And Hyde’s playing been a factor at all. time was drastically reduced when Herron returned.

Grade: C Grade: B-

RUNNING BACKS

DEFENSIVE BACKS

RECEIVERS Open receivers have been a rarity for Ohio State this season. Blame inexperience, maybe a lack of speed in some cases, and having No. 1 receiver DeVier Posey suspended until the last two games of the season.

Tight end Jake Stoneburner has been the most productive pass catcher with six touchdowns in his 12 catches.

But there is nobody who is even close to being a “go-to” guy, the guy who can make something out of nothing, or

BIG TEN STANDINGS Leaders Division Big Ten Overall W L W L Wisconsin 2 0 6 0 Penn State 3 0 6 1 Illinois 2 1 6 1 Purdue 1 1 3 3 Ohio State 1 2 4 3 Indiana 0 3 1 6 Legends Division Big Ten Overall W L W L Michigan State 2 0 5 1 Michigan 2 1 6 1 Nebraska 1 1 5 1 Iowa 1 1 4 2 Northwestern 0 3 2 4 Minnesota 0 2 1 5

Depth has been the strength of Ohio State’s defensive backfield. Cornerback Bradley Roby has three interceptions and could be emerging as the playmaker here.

The DBs might have been hampered a bit so far by the fact last year’s front seven put more pressure on opposing offenses than this year’s group has been able to do.

HOROSCOPE Friday, Oct. 21, 2011 New and interesting times might be in the offing for you in the next year, where your social life is concerned.

Several new relationships that start out on a casual basis will develop and grow into enviable lifelong friendships.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — You won’t have any trouble keeping up with the Joneses, because to your peers you are already a stellar attraction. Putting on pretenses to enhance your image won’t be necessary.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Although at times you are inclined to think that no one cares about you, a situation might develop that’ll prove how much everyone likes you. All you have to do is just relax and be yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — When you relax, you’re a charmer, impressing everyone with whom you come in contact. It will be one of those times when obvious approval will smother any feelings of rejection.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — An opportunity to help better your financial position will be orchestrated by someone who has a stake in your affairs. You may not know about this person’s input, but you’ll dig the results.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Although you may never realize the impact of your words, you’ll have a faculty for saying all the right things that will uplift the spirits of another and change their world.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — You don’t have to achieve an understanding with everyone at work, only with those who are in a position to make your life easier. It might be the boss, or even someone who works at your side.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — When exchanging ideas with someone whose mind you respect, be more of a listener than a talker. Chances are he or she will offer some interesting information you can use.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — If confronted with a challenge by someone who has opposed you previously, don’t back down. Proving what you have to offer is both productive and effective.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — You’ve had to learn to forge order out of chaos, because you have a talent for making a mess in the first place. Trust your gift and apply it without hesitation whenever needed.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — There’s a good chance that something you wanted changed will be altered, but owing to someone else’s influence, not yours. If it serves your purpose, who cares?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Because you are a fast thinker who possesses sound judgment you should be able to come up with a solution to a problem that needs an instant, creative answer.

Don’t hesitate to speak up.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — With your natural resourcefulness, you’ll have some ingenious concepts at your fingertips. Even though you may pull them out of thin air, the things you envision will be very doable.

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees).

The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount.

While banks and Western branches are Union trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks.

Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable.

B E AV E R C R E E K — The Piqua boys soccer team lost 5-3 to Xenia Thursday night in Division I sectional play.

“We lost a heartbreaker at Beavercreek tonight,” Piqua coach Nick Guidera said. “We made a few changes with the formation and caught Xenia offguard at first.”

Evan Grissom beat the keeper on a breakaway to start the scoring.

Later Grissom had another chance and once again was able to blast the ball past the keeper.

With Piqua up 2-0 a controversial penalty kick was called and the Xenia player perfectly placed the ball past Piqua’s keeper.

“Brandon Newbright got a great jump on the ball and nearly saved it,” Guidera said. “With the score now 2-1 we had a free kick from about 40 yards from goal and Evan played a ball in to a streaking Cody Lumpkin who beat the keeper with a header.

“It was great that both players recognized the space and we played a quick ball and Cody got a head on it. Once again we were up two goals.”

Then another penalty kick was awarded to Xenia; and they converted again, making it 3-2.

With under two minutes to play in regulation Xenia put another home to force it to overtime.

In overtime it took Xenia 10 minutes to score the game winner.

“We knew it was going to be a hard-fought game,” Guidera said. “We lost 2-0 in regular season, both off of free kicks.

Piqua Continued from page 14 picked it up for one of her 16 saves.

“Sometimes, when I can make a save like that, it can help the team out,” Deal said.

Horvath agreed.

“I think that save did get us going,” she said.

“Kelsey (Deal) saved us early and then we got going after that.”

Midway through the first half, extra effort by Bell and Burt got Piqua on the board.

After the goal Bell had one shot deflected by the goalie, she fired another on at her from 20 yards out.

When, the goalie couldn’t come up with a clean save, Burt hustled in on the follow and got just enough on the ball to put it in the back of the net at the 20:34 mark.

“I knew I was going to beat the goalie,” Burt said.

It is the kind of play Horvath has come to expect from Burt.

“Dianna (Burt) is so tenacious,” Horvath said.

“That is why I have her up top.”

The final two goals came from Bell, whose speed and athleticism was a problem for Butler all night.

“I am surprised they (Vandalia) didn’t mark her more,” Horvath said. “But, that is up to them.”

With 32:57 remaining, Hannah Strevell sent a perfect thru ball into the box and Bell ran by two Butler defenders and fin-

Hannah “Actually, (Strevell) and I have worked well together all season,” Bell said. “We have gotten a number of goals that way.”

A give-and-go between Burt and Bell put the game away with 7:47, with Bell again too quick for the Butler defense.

“I sent the ball to Dianna (Burt) and she sent the ball back to me,” Bell said. “It really is (special) to get a tournament win our senior year.”

Things got a little physical in the final minutes.

Twice, Deal was run into after she clearly had control of the ball for a save.

“I don’t know,” Deal said. “Both teams were being aggressive out there. I think that was

just one of those things.”

Deal finished with 16 saves for Piqua, who improved to 10-5-1. The Indians had 11 shots on goal for the game.

“That is one of the things we talked about,” Horvath said. “I am really proud of the girls for the way they handled things.”

Not, that is was all that enjoyable playing in those conditions.

“Of course, it was terrible,” Burt said about the weather. “But, we have played games here and we have played in the rain before.”

And she and the Lady Indians weren’t about to have the season end that way.

Series scoreless through six Did trade save World Cardinals looking to take 2-0 lead after winning opener Harrison’s life?

ROIT (AP) — ESPN is reporting that Detroit Lions running back Jerome Harrison has a brain tumor.

The network cited two NFL sources it did not identify in Thursday's report. It says the tumor was revealed when Harrison had a physical after being dealt this week by Detroit to the Philadelphia Eagles in a trade that was voided by

the discovery.

Lions coach Jim Schwartz wouldn't confirm or deny the report, citing a privacy issue. He said Harrison was back on the team's 53-man roster.

Harrison's agent, did not return phone and email messages.

The Lions wanted to trade Harrison to Philadelphia for Ronnie Brown.

Soccer Continued from page 14 tonight gave us more scoring opportunities and we were able to convert, Evan Grissom played a monster game for us as well offensively.

“We came out ready to play and were up to the challenge, it was an unfortunate result; but I am proud of our guys.

“Credit to Xenia, they never gave up, even when we had them against the wall.”

It was the final game for Brandon Newbright, Justis Davis, Adrian Hemm, Jarrod Stengel, Evan Grissom, Tyler Broaddrick, and captains Cameron Langston and Conner Benson.

Newton advances PLEASANT HILL — Newton edged out a tough West Liberty-Salem team, 2-1, in the opening round of the Division III Sectional.

Jordan Hodges provided a goal and an assist for the Indians. Daniel Vance had the other Newton goal, while Johnny White added an assist.

Newton (10-5-2) hosts Troy Christian on Saturday.

The time of the game has yet to be determined.

GIRLS SOCCER East wins 2-0 CASSTOWN — In the second round of tournament play, Miami East outlasted Newton and powered through the adverse weather conditions for a 2-0.

Miami East will play the Lehman-Triad winner at 7 p.m. Monday at Bethel.

Despite getting off several crosses the first half, the Vikings were unable to convert. They went into the break tied at zero.

"I wasn't too concerned that we hadn't scored yet,” Miami East coach Emalie Carson said. “We were going against the wind the first half and still maintained pretty good possession.

“We were getting the

ball in the box, just weren't getting really good looks. I knew if we remained patient, it would come to us the second half."

And the Vikings had to remain patient. Their first goal didn't come until 17:08 left in the game. Taylor Young sent an easy ball into the corner for Chelsea Sherman.

She took a touch and got the cross in near post.

It took a bounce the Vikings' way and Kylie Brown touched it into the net.

East continued to put the pressure on, but did not get the insurance goal until less than seven minutes remained.

Kendra Beckman set a ball long to the corner.

Lindsey Roeth chased it down and set a cross in, out away from the keeper.

Katrina Sutherly was making a run far post and slid it into the net.

Kelly Rindler had six saves in the goal for the Vikings and earned her 11the shutout of the season.

"Defensively, we were great,” Carson said. “In this weather, it just takes one little slip up and it could cost you.

“But we played smart, kept the ball in front of us, and didn't give them many looks.

“It's especially hard for the keeper, it's cold and wet, you aren't seeing much of the ball. But Kelly came up big a couple of times, did a good job keeping her focus back there.

“As a team, we were patient. We didn't force anything that wasn't there, played well as a team. It really was a team effort for the win."

Miami East is now 123-2.

Cavs postponed SIDNEY — The Lehman girls soccer game with Triad in Division III sectional action was postponed.

The game will be played at 3 p.m. Saturday.

Lewis gave up a two-out double to right by Furcal in the third, then retired Jay on a groundout to first. After Lance Berkman reached in the fourth on a one-out error by Kinsler, who allowed the grounder to second to bounce out of his glove, Lewis retired Matt Holliday on an inning-ending, grounder, double-play with Andrus making a nice backhand flip to second.

Texas slugger Josh Hamilton, hampered by a strained left groin, dropped to 0 for 6 in the Series with a groundout and flyout.

Garcia had been 0-2 with a 5.74 ERA in his first three postseason starts. Lewis has pitched better on the road than at home this year and was 11 with a 3.86 ERA, winning at Tampa Bay and losing at Detroit.

A night after a cold, rainy opener, it was slightly warmer, with a

hop smash to the shortstop side of second, and Andrus ranged over to make a diving stop. From his knees on the outfield grass, he looked to see that he had time with the pitcher running and flipped the ball with his glove to second baseman Ian Kinsler, who just beat the sliding Garcia to the base.

Texas threatened in the fourth, when Kinsler walked leading off and Michael Young lofted a soft, two-out single that landed just in front of charging center fielder John Jay. Garcia escaped by striking out Adrian Beltre after falling behind 3-1 in the count, dropping the Rangers to 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position in the Series.

Lewis struck out three and walked two through six innings, throwing 86 pitches. He allowed five runners, but none of them advanced past second base.

gametime temperature of 50 degrees. Stan Musial, the Cardinals Hall of Famer who turns 91 next month, attended the game at Busch Stadium, hoping to watch St. Louis move halfway to its 11th championship and first since 2006.

When the Series shifts to Texas on Saturday night, Matt Harrison starts Game 3 for the Rangers and Kyle Lohse for the Cardinals. Derek Holland goes for the Rangers in Game 4 on Sunday and Edwin Jackson for the Cardinals.

Texas, seeking the first Series title in franchise history, had not lost consecutive games since Aug. 23-25 at Boston and was hoping to avoid a repeat of last year, when the Rangers went to San Francisco and were swept by the Giants 11-7 and 9-0 in the first two games.

The Giants went on to win the Series in five games.

Physical reveals brain tumor

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The Cardinals' Jaime Garcia and the Rangers' Colby Lewis both pitched two-hit ball through six innings, and Texas shortstop Elvis Andrus saved a run with an outstanding defensive play that left Game 2 of the World Series tied 0-0 Thursday night.

A night after Chris Carpenter led the Cardinals to a 3-2 win in the opener, Garcia retired his first nine batters in order and didn't allow a ball out of the infield. Using a sharp breaking ball, he allowed just three runners in the first six innings and only a pair of singles. He struck out six and walked one, throwing 75 pitches.

Lewis was nearly as sharp as Garcia but got in trouble in the fifth, when No. 8 hitter Nick Punto singled on an 0-2 pitch with two outs. Lewis walked Garcia, an .097 hitter (6 for 62) during the regular season.

Rafael Furcal hit a one-
