Local charged with murder

Wilges receives Purple Heart

STAFF REPORT

BY WILL E SANDERS Staff Writer wsanders@dailycall.com

A: 1) Three new elementary schools will cost less than maintaining, renovating and/or repairing our current eight aging buildings. 2) Consolidating eight old elementary buildings into three new ones will save money by reducing operating costs. 3) New facilities will support classroom learning technology. 4) New buildings will have high efficiency climate control systems. 5) The State of Ohio is paying for more than $25 million of this project. 6) This construction project will provide a boom to our community’s economy at a time when it is much needed. 7) It needs to be done so either we pay a little now with the state’s 47 percent or a lot later. 8) This is a cost savings plan that will benefit the entire Piqua Community.

PIQUA — U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Robb Wilges said he always knew he wanted to be in the military, but this 2001 Piqua High School graduate recently was bestowed with one of the most distinct service medals — a Purple Heart.

A Marine for more than a decade now, Wilges was awarded with the honorary military medal in June from a hospital bed.

Days before, Wilges’ unit came under fire and as a result he sustained serious injuries as a result of the battle, which sadly claimed the life of See Heart /Page 2

Anderson named best principal Among 61 honored

BY SUSAN HARTLEY Executive Editor Piqua Daily Call PIQUA — High Street Principal Teresa Anderson wa among 61 outstanding elementary and middle school principals recently honored as 2011 National Distinguished Principals by the National Association of Elementary School Principals.

The principals were honored earlier this month during an awards banquet at the Capital Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., as part of a twoday program, which for more than 20 years has been funded by VALIC, a retirement provider for the nation’s K-12 schools, higher education, and

healthcare institutions.

Anderson was named Ohio’s Distinguished Principal last spring, when she was principal at Nicklin Learning Center.

“Each state sends their state representative to the national program,”Anderson said prior to leaving for the nation’s capital last week with her husband William.

“It’s two days of events, guest speakers and sharing opportunities for principals to share best practices,” Anderson said of the national event.

Anderson reported on her trip Thursday during the Piqua Board of Education meeting.

“We were treated like royalty, Anderson told board members. “I’ve never felt quite so honored.”

PIQUA — A Piqua mother has been indicted by a Kentucky grand jury stemming from a singlecar traffic collision that killed the woman’s 2-yearold daughter last week.

Lisa Ritter, 31, was originally charged with assault and driving under the influence for the crash she caused that claimed her daughter’s life, by a grand jury disagreed, according to the Morgan County Sheriff’s Office.

Ritter has now been charged with murder after a grand jury indicted her on that charge on Monday.

Last week, Ritter lost control of her 2003 Chevrolet Impala and it struck a tree. As a result, her daughter, Alyssa Nicole Johnson, 2, died.

According to the Morgan County Sheriff ’s Office, authorities found marijuana and other controlled substances in Ritter’s vehicle.

A Dec. 15 pretrial conference has been scheduled.

ERICA WERNER AND MATTHEW DALY Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — On the defensive over a half-billion-dollar loan to a now-bankrupt solar company, the White House on Friday ordered an independent review of similar loans made by the Energy Department, its latest response to rising criticism over Solyndra Inc. The announcement came as House Republicans prepared for a possible vote next week to subpoena White House documents related to the defunct California company.

White House officials said the review would assess the health of more than two dozen other loans and loan guarantees made by the Energy Department program that supported Solyndra. Congressional Republicans have been investigating the company's bankruptcy amid embarrassing revelations that federal officials were warned it had problems but nonetheless continued to support it, and sent President Barack Obama to visit the company and praise it publicly.

“Today we are directing that an independent analysis be conducted of the current state of the Department of Energy loan portfolio, focusing on future loan monitoring and management,” White House chief of staff Bill Daley said. “While we continue to take steps to make sure the United States remains competitive in the 21st century energy economy, we must also ensure that we are strong stewards of taxpayer dollars.”

Daley said the review would be conducted by former Treasury official Herb Allison, who oversaw the Troubled Asset Relief Program, part of the 2008 Wall Street bailout. The review would not look at the Solyndra case but would evaluate other loans worth tens of billions of dollars and recommend steps to stabilize them if they appear to have problems like the loan to Solyndra.

The White House has already refused a request by the Republicancontrolled House Energy and Commerce Committee for all its internal communications about Solyndra, which closed its doors and filed for bankruptcy protection earlier this year, costing 1,100 jobs.

GOP Reps. Fred Upton of Michigan and Cliff Stearns of Florida said the subpoena was necessary because the White House has denied its requests for documents. Upton chairs the En-

ergy and Commerce panel, while Stearns leads a subcommittee on investigations. Recently released emails and other documents show that White House officials participated in decisions regarding the Solyndra loan.

“What is the White House trying to hide from the American public?”

No, that muffin did not cost taxpayers $16 PETE YOST Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Remember the $16 muffin, a sign of government spending out of control? It turns out that all the criticism was half-baked.

The Justice Department's Office of the Inspector General is apologizing for erroneously concluding that a hotel charged the government $16 apiece for breakfast muffins.

The IG's assertion last month prompted widespread criticism of government spending. A swift rebuttal came from Hilton Worldwide, which manages and franchises hotels including the Capital Hilton, the location for a Justice Department conference that served the muffins.

At the time, the IG said it stood by its report that the muffins were indeed that pricey.

On Friday, the IG's office reversed itself, saying that it had received additional information concerning food and beverage costs and that the department did not pay $16 per muffin at the conference by the Executive Office for Immigration Review.

The additional information showed that the muffins were actually part of a modified continental breakfast priced at $16.80 and consisting of items such as pastries, fruit, coffee, tea and juice.

"We regret the error in our original report," the IG said in a preface to its revisions. "After discussions with the Capital Hilton" and the Justice Department, "we determined that our initial conclusions concerning the itemized costs of refreshments at the EOIR conference were incorrect."

Heart Continued from page 1 Wilges’ sergeant.

The attack transpired in the Helmand Province in southern Afghanistan while Wilges’ unit was conducting building checks at a residence when suddenly an ambush enveloped around them.

“We were just talking with some people and making sure they knew why we were there and that we would be doing a quick search of their house,” the staff sergeant recalled. “… That’s when we came under ambush from the enemy.”

The rapid and repeating sounds of gunfire and explosions littered the air and that’s when an explo-

sion near Wilges claimed the life of his sergeant.

Shrapnel from that explosion struck Wilges and knocked him unconscious to the ground.

“I was struck with shrapnel in the face,” said Wilges, who also suffered a concussion. “I was knocked unconscious and had shrapnel embedded in my cheek bone. When I came to I was out of surgery.”

While hospitalized at Camp Leatherneck, Wilges spoke with several military officials and they all told him he would be receiving the Purple Heart for the wounds he sustained.

But the honor of the Purple

Continued from page 1 Each participant also was asked to bring a souvenir from their state, so Anderson worked with ReadMore Hallmark and decided to take an Ohio shaped ornament featuring the state’s bird and flower — a cardinal and carnation.

She also shared why Ohio is called the Buckeye State with her fellow educators.

Piqua School Board President noted Thursday that Anderson “deserved the honor” as principal of the

year for Ohio’s elementary schools. “We appreciate everything you’ve done.

We’re very proud of you.”

It was also noted Thursday that two other Piqua principals have earned the honor of being named an Ohio principal of the year — Curt Montgomery and Molly Hay. Supt. Rick Hanes said it was “phenomenal” for Piqua to have three state principals of the year. “It’s a huge accomplishment for the district.”

Heart is a bittersweet recognition for Wilges.

“It’s an award that I am certainly proud of,” he said, “but I lost a sergeant in the incident. So it’s more of a memorial to him.”

Presently, Wilges is stateside at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina and is a member of the Second Battalion, Eighth Regiment.

“I always wanted to join the military,” Wilges said. “I knew that was what I was going to do and I decided to go with the Marine Corps.”

Wilges said he plans on staying in the military for 20 years and making a career out of it.

Stearns and Upton asked in a joint statement. “It is alarming for the Obama White House to cast aside its vows of transparency and block Congress from learning more about the roles that those in the White House and other members of the administration played in the Solyndra mess.”

The panel is seeking documents that might shed light on actions by White House officials in connection with the original 2009 loan to Solyndra as well as a restructuring of the deal that took place earlier this year.

Solyndra, of Fremont, Calif., was the first renewable-energy company to receive a loan guarantee under a stimulus-law program to encourage green energy and was frequently touted by the Obama administration as a model.

Obama visited the company's headquarters last year, and Vice President Joe Biden spoke by satellite at a groundbreaking ceremony.

The Obama administration has released thousands of emails — but withheld thousands more — concerning the $528 million loan. To date, the administration says it has produced 70,000 pages, participated in nine briefings for congressional committee staff and provided testimony at four House committee hearings.

White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler has previously said that the committee leaders' request for more documents has implications for executive branch confidentiality.

“It has been well-established for decades that the president has a strong constitutionally rooted interest in preserving the confidentiality of executive branch deliberative communications,” Ruemmler wrote the committee this week.

The White House also has said it would not release Obama’s BlackBerry messages — which if released would be a presidential first.

Any subpoena of White House records could trigger a claim of executive privilege by the Obama administration and elevate the political stakes, although the issue could also be resolved through negotiations.

The loan is being investigated by two House committees, which have released Solyndra-related documents from federal agencies including the Energy and Treasury departments and the Office of Management and Budget.

Solyndra is under criminal investigation by the FBI. Inspectors general at the U.S. Treasury and the Energy Department also are investigating.

Two options available to Temperatures below normal dispose of leaves in Piqua PIQUA — Piqua residents have two options available to dispose of leaves this fall.

In an effort to assist residents with their leaf pick-up, the city will allow residents to dispose of their leaves free of charge at the city’s compost facility on Piqua-Troy Road. Now through Dec. 16, residents who do not want to wait on their scheduled leaf pick-up may take their leaves to the compost facility. Residents may contact the street department to schedule a time to take their leaves to the facility.

Normally, the cost to dispose of leaves is $10 per truck or trailer load. But in an effort to assist residents as well as work crews, this fee will be waived during this time period. The more residents that participate in this program, the more beneficial it will be for residents and crews. This will

allow residents to remove their leaves at their convenience, which will free up parking spaces in residential areas, keep leaves from collecting in storm sewer systems, and allow work crews more time to work on street-related issues.

The city is hoping to get a multitude of residents to participate in this new program, which is a win-win for all involved. All leaves collected will be composted and sold next spring and summer as compost for gardens and flower beds. It is a very nutrient rich product that resembles top soil. The city has been com-

posting leaves, and making mulch at this facility since 2003. All leaves brought to the facility must be free of brush, bushes or any type of wood. Those items may also be taken to the compost facility for a nominal fee.

For questions or scheduling, call the street department at 778-2095.

Residents also may choose to take advantage of the regular scheduled pick-up.

Pick-up has started and will continue through the beginning of December.

Leaf pick-up crews will cover the city three full rounds, plus additional coverage, as needed in areas with a heavy concentration of leaves.

To help provide efficient pick-up, residents are asked to rake leaves with regard to the following: • Rake leaves to the curb line. On streets with no curbs, rake leaves to the edge of the asphalt. Resi-

dents should pile the leaves as far away from stormwater catch basins as possible as the leaves can plug off/reduce the flow of rainwater into the catch basins and cause flooding.

• Keep leaf piles free of stones, cans, trash, sticks, etc. These items can damage the vacuum equipment.

• Do not rake leaves to the alley or boulevards.

• Make sure leaves are not piled under, between or around parked cars.

• The Leaf Pick-up Hotline is 778-2047. A recorded message will be updated each day, describing the location in which crews are working. Call the hotline to receive schedule information. The city’s website www.piquaoh.org also will have the schedule updates.

Those with questions or requiring additional information pertaining to this program are advised to contact the street department.

Area tourism topic of monthly luncheon PIQUA — Diana Thompson and Kay Hamilton of the Miami County Visitor’s and Convention Bureau are the featured speakers for the Nov. 9 Monthly Luncheon Series at the YWCA Piqua. The program begins at 11 a.m. followed by a noon luncheon ($5 each).

The program is free and open to the public.

Thompson has been the executive director of the visitor’s bureau for 21 years and Hamilton, group tour specialist, has served in that capacity for eight years. The organization has been in existence

for 21 years and has been located in downtown Troy for more than 16 years.

“We promote tourism to Miami County through advertising, marketing, printed materials, attended trade show and marketplaces, through regional partnerships and by utilizing many other resources,” Thompson said. “We focus on the importance of tourism in the area and how its generation of tourism dollars contributes to the economic vitality of the area.”

One of the recent exciting tourism programs promoted by MCVCB was the

barn quilt tours according to Hamilton. The project began during the county’s bicentennial in 2007, as a way to commemorate the importance of agriculture in the Miami County area.

“The work was begun in 2006 and went through 2009 before running out of our funding. A Mexican Folk Artist, Rafael Santoyo, painted all 69 quilt squares. We still have calls for people to get maps to visit all 69 barn quilts in the county,” Thompson said.

Serving Piqua since 1883

“Every man according as he purposes in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver.”

(2 Corinthians 9:7 AKJV)

Open Mike

If it looks too good to be true … The Usual Eccentric Occupy Wall Street, or any other convenient location where newspaper and television coverage might be, has become the latest American fad.

Right now, it is cool to be among the protestors. It is fashionable to make a little sign claiming to be among the “99 percent” of Americans oppressed by big business.

Let me first say that, I too, believe that Wall Street, or big business is partially responsible for much of the financial woes we face.

The other piece of this two-piece puzzle of what is wrong with America is our own government.

Big business and our government have created a monster so large that I don’t believe even they can bring it under control … not that they want to.

First of all, I believe that a majority of the protestors, while they may believe in the cause, are only marching in protest in hopes of making the six o’clock news.

Americans are such hypocrites.

They claim to want to tame big business but do their shopping at big-box stores that are among the leaders in MIKE ULLERY corporate greed.

Chief Photographer They probably purchased the paper and markers to make their protest signs at the very same retail establishments that have made it their goal to put local family-owned companies out of business.

For many years, the word “monopoly,” was whispered any time a business became large enough to control even a regional market. Yet, with great skill and deliberation, a number of large businesses, from oil companies and grocery stores to lumber yards and even tax services have managed to organize into companies with enough clout, meaning money, to purchase political votes. That is what it is all about.

Protesters are saying, “Let us change big business.” We will never change big business until we succeed in getting rid of the corrupt political game. Our legislators don’t base their votes on what you, or I, want to happen in Washington. They vote based on what lobbyists for big business say.

What is the most scary part of the whole scenario is that some politicians are becoming so brazen as to come right out and say, “We are doing it my way, I don’t care about your opinion.” We are dealing with just such an individual with our current governor who rammed Senate Bill 5 down our throats. Just how much money is it costing Ohioans to repeal Kasich’s idiocy?

My message to Americans is to stop looking for your personal 30 seconds of fame of having your face and cute little sign on the evening news.

Exercise your right to vote and get the bloodsucking politicians who think that everything should be handed to Americans on a silver platter, a platter that they own and control, out of office.

Remember this as you watch the politicians make their speeches on how they will fix things and make life all rosy for you, if it looks too good to be true … it is.

To the Editor: My wife and I are senior citizens. We raised our children in Piqua. They attended Piqua Catholic School and Piqua High School. We’ve always supported Piqua schools and are voting “for” the present “Opportunity of a Lifetime.”

The passage of this bond issue and tax levy will build three new schools and maintain them. These modern buildings will serve the students of Piqua many years into the future.

Spending money, the same amount or more, on maintaining and, repairing our eight existing primary buildings, with no help from the State of Ohio, doesn’t make sense to us.

The state is willing to pay 47 percent of the cost of this project if we will pay the other 53 percent. A commitment, yes, but one that will affect many generations of Piqua children.

Please join us in voting “for” the Piqua School bond issue and tax levy.

Voters have chance to shape future To the Editor: Voters do not often have the opportunity presented to them as they do this year on election day — three new schools for nearly $0.50 on the dollar.

Having watched our two daughters grow and excel in the Piqua school system, we have been pleased with the preparation they received to further their education. Now as we face this opportunity to assure a quality education for the students who follow, it would be easy to say “times are tough” and ignore this challenge. However, Piqua has repeatedly met the challenge to assure quality education for our students and improve our community.

We must continue to provide these opportunities for tomorrow’s leaders as well. When we go to the polls this election we will support the school levy. We encourage everyone to do likewise.

DEAR ABBY: My younger sister is getting married next month and has requested that no kids be brought to the reception. My “kids” are teenagers and I feel that at least children of the immediate family should be allowed to attend. Incidentally, Sis and her fiance have a little girl and boy who will serve as a flower girl and ring bearer. The children will participate in the wedding party introductions, then will be carted off.

Finally, she wants my 15-year-old to baby-sit the young cousins. Because we don’t think it’s right, we have decided that we will attend the wedding ceremony but not the reception. It is not my intention not to share her moment, but I’m afraid my teenagers won’t understand why they can’t celebrate their aunt’s special day. Am I making too much of this?

— RSVP UNDECIDED IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR UNDECIDED: Your sister’s reason for excluding “children” could be budgetary — or fear that young children could be disruptive. By saying “no children” she is trying to be fair to all the parents.

However, if she wants your daughter to baby-sit, she should make the arrangements with your daughter — including offering to pay her for her time — especially if there will be more children than the flower girl and ring bearer in her care.

Is he in recovery? Was he upset because it took three years for you to tell him you have a drink or two a month with your friends, and that’s why he “doesn’t trust you”?

While you and I may think your boyfriend’s attitude is unreasonable, it’s clear to me that if you want him, you will have to take “the pledge.” And if you can’t do that, Adam is not The One for you.

Trust thy neighbor the eye.

South had to read the situation well in today’s hand, where West led a spade against four hearts.

East won with the ace and returned the four, West capturing the queen with the king.

West continued with a low spade to dummy’s nine, which East ruffed with the eight. It was at this point that declarer had to watch his step or he would have failed in his mission. Had he overruffed, he would have gone down one, losing two spades, a heart and a club. But South discarded a club instead of overruffing and was then able to make the contract with the aid of two heart finesses.

West’s low spade lead at trick three (when he

could have returned the jack) was based on the hope that East had the eight, ten or jack of trumps, in which case the defense would automatically acquire at least one trump trick after East ruffed.

South’s club discard was based partly on the assumption that West had not suddenly taken leave of his senses by returning

a low spade rather than the jack, and partly on the basis that since he had to lose a club trick in any case, it would be better to lose it there and then rather than weaken his trump position.

The reasoning was simple enough. What South really deserved credit for was resisting the impulse to overruff the eight with the ten.

MILESTONES

Military museums offer thrills, noted collections SUSANNE M. SCHAFER Associated Press FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Military museums allow visitors to experience the rough and tumble jerk of a parachute jump, the barked orders of an Army drill sergeant or the segregated training endured by the first African-Americans to enter the Marine Corps.

Whether you are a hardened military veteran or one who’s never worn a uniform, several military museums in the Carolinas offer extensive lessons in military service as the Nov. 11 Veterans Day draws near.

In Fayetteville, N.C., the soaring Airborne and Special Operations Museum attracts between 120,000 to 175,000 visitors every year and tells the story of how America’s military developed the strategy of dropping fully-armed soldiers into battle from the skies. A 15-foot sculpture of the paratrooper dubbed “Iron Mike” stands guard at its glass-and-girder front entry, which evokes both the 250-foot “jump towers” that paratroopers use to train and the wingspan of the C-47 aircraft that dropped soldiers onto battlefields in World War II. Located just minutes off Interstate 95 in downtown Fayetteville, N.C., the museum is holding a weeklong celebration in advance of Veterans Day, says Paul Galloway, executive director of the foundation that supported construction of the $25 million building.

“We’ll be hopping and popping. We do a salute to veterans every year,” Galloway said. A week of films about the Army and paratroopers will be held the week prior to the holiday, as well as other events to honor military men and women, Galloway said.

As soon as you enter the museum, you spot a World War II-era paratrooper in combat gear floating out of the sky under a yellow 28foot-wide parachute. Behind him, another model drops from the heavens, a modern Army Ranger buoyed by a light green, honeycombed parachute used by U.S. Special Forces.

A wild ride can be had in the museum’s 24-seat platform motion simulator, recreating the bumps and jumps of parachute drops and rides in military vehicles.

To highlight some of the major events of wartime paratroopers, visitors first stroll through a recreated village in Normandy.

Recordings from the June 1944 Allied invasion to liberate France from Nazi Germany put visitors in the heat of the battle, with rockets and bullets

screeching by. Overhead, a C-47 “Skytrain” aircraft hovers with a U.S. Army paratrooper poised to jump out an open door.

Walkways are papered with still photos, videos and murals that show the history behind U.S. forces that evolved into the famed Special Operations units, designated to take on unconventional warfare and special missions in foreign lands.

Displays from the war in the Pacific, the Korean War and Cold War are shown. In one display, soldiers jump from a UH-1 “Huey” helicopter into a jungle battle raging in Vietnam. Other displays detail the history of U.S. involvement in the Dominican Republic, Panama and Grenada.

America’s conflicts in the Middle East are recalled with models of camouflaged soldiers crouching in desert hideouts in Iraq.

Others depict U.S. Special Operations forces meeting for tea with Afghan villagers or medical centers where military medics tend to local children.

The latest addition to the Army’s military museums is the Army’s Basic Training Combat Museum located on Fort Jackson, in Columbia, S.C., which reopened in July after a twoyear renovation.

More than 60,000 male and female soldiers graduate every year from basic training at Fort Jackson, which is the Army’s largest training site. The museum offers guests and family members a taste of their grueling 10 weeks of indoctrination and combat training.

“The museum boasts a number of high-speed exhibits that zoom in directly on how civilians are turned into soldiers, interwoven with Fort Jackson’s past,” said the two-star general in charge of the post, Maj. Gen. James Milano.

Visitors may be startled by drill sergeants who appear in holographic images bellowing commands, allowing them to “feel as if he or she has enlisted in the Army and is standing there in their Army Combat Uniform,” Milano says.

Check out a fully loaded duffel bag, or try to lift and shoot an Army rifle. Listen as soldiers march by and learn some of the drill sergeants’ cadence calls that keep soldiers sharp and in step.

The museum gives visitors a sense of how rough training once was with displays of World War I-era barracks, complete with wood-burning, pot-bellied stoves, metal beds and modest rations.

“I learned how they’d done basic training in the past,” said Pvt. Christopher Thorngate, 26, visiting the museum with his grandparents Dale, 76, and

Janet, 70, of Salem, W.Va., a day before his own graduation from basic training.

“They worked the simulations in very well, so it’s not just history and you don’t get bored.”

Grandfather Thorngate, who retired from the Air Force after 26 years, said he was pleased to learn how present-day training made use of combat weapons and tactics.

“Whether it’s the Air Force or Army, it’s good to see that they keep instilling military values, the discipline that is needed,” he said.

While most Marines recall their basic training taking place either at Parris Island, S.C., or Camp Pendleton, Calif., there is a third site few know about: the Montford Point Marine Museum, located near Camp Lejeune, N.C., at Camp Gilbert H. Johnson.

“We are the Marine Corps basic training site you’ve never heard of,” jokes Finney Greggs, a retired Marine and director of the small museum located in one of the original white wooden, single story barracks buildings where African-Americans were

segregated from white Marines as they trained from 1942 to 1949.

The museum holds photos, letters, uniforms and other mementos from blacks who endured tough training to earn the eagle, globe and anchor Corps’ insignia and disprove the notion they weren’t worthy because of the color of their skin.

African-Americans gained entry to the Marines after President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order forcing the commandant to allow them to train. In 1948, President Harry S Truman signed an executive order that desegregated the military services, and all Marines went to boot camp at either Parris Island or Camp Pendleton.

Greggs says the museum is seeking material for displays and is looking for information about any veterans who may have trained at Montford Point and saw duty in World War II. Organizers are also looking ahead to building a second phase dealing with the history of these Marines in the Korean War and Vietnam.

Serving Us Flemings completes basic training Navy Seaman Eugena M. Flemings, daughter of Susan J. Ford of Piqua, recently completed U.S. Navy basic training at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill. During the eight-week program, Flemings completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety and survival, and shipboard and aircraft safety.

An emphasis was also placed on physical fitness.

The capstone event of boot camp is “Battle Sta-

tions.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet. “Battle Stations” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of Honor, Courage and Commitment. Its distinctly ”Navy” flavor was designed to take into account what it means to be a Sailor.

Flemings is a 2011 graduate of Piqua High School.

Take Back event hosted by DEA TROY — On Oct. 29, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Miami County Sheriff ’s Office is hosting a dropoff event with the support of the Tri-County Board of Recovery & Mental Health Services. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public another opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by

ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. No liquids can be accepted. Bring your medications for disposal to Miami County Sanitary Engineering at 2200 North County Road, Troy.

The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Water treatment project reduced Slight cost savings to be seen BRADFORD — During Thursday’s meeting, Bradford Village Council approved a project change order, heard an update, discussed the levy and agreed to Santa’s request.

Council approved the first official change order for the water treatment plant project. This officially reduces the $3.415 million project costs by $545,454; however, after adding in the requested 5 percent contingency and the engineer’s fee, the project currently stands at about $3.3 million.

The project contractor Judy Excavating, village engineer’s Fanning Howey and village administrator Roger Looker are all working diligently toward continuing to find ways to manage the finances for this EPA mandated project.

The council also heard an update from Looker

about the well pump. It was replaced and came in within the council’s approved budget.

Council members discussed the upcoming income tax levy and were notified by Don Stump, PR chair, that letters will be sent out to residents Tuesday, Nov. 1.

Council discussed doing a village walk-through to talk to residents. After some discussion there were more council members who felt that this wouldn’t do any good than there were members who were willing to knock on doors. So, they decided not to go door-to-door.

William Favorite requested permission from council to allow Santa to ride through Bradford on his sleigh, 6 p.m., Friday, Dec. 2. Council agreed.

Santa will be stopping

by Marla and Dan Francis’ Christmasland and handing out goodies to all of the children who stop by.

The next council meeting is 7 p.m., Nov. 10 in council chambers. The meeting is open to all residents.

Wall Street protesters prepare for winter weather ERIKA NIEDOWSKI Associated Press PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Wall Street protesters around the country who are vowing to stand their ground against the police and politicians are also digging in against a different kind of adversary: cold weather.

With the temperature dropping, they are stockpiling donated coats, blankets and scarves, trying to secure cots and militarygrade tents, and getting survival tips from the homeless people who have joined their encampments.

“Everyone’s been calling it our Valley Forge moment,” said Michael McCarthy, a former Navy medic in Providence.

“Everybody thought that George Washington couldn’t possibly survive in the Northeast.”

More than a month and a half into the movement, Occupy Wall Street activists from New York to Colorado have pledged to tough out the snow, sleet and cold as they protest economic inequality and what they call corporate greed.

But the dangers of staying outdoors in some of the country’s harsher climes are already becoming apparent: In Denver, two protesters were hospitalized with hypothermia this week during a storm that brought several inches of snow.

The activists also know full well that the number of demonstrators is likely to drop as the weather gets colder.

Some movements are scouting locations indoors, including vacant buildings or other unused properties, possibly even foreclosed homes, though some question the wisdom of holding a protest outside the public eye.

Lighting campfires is probably out of the question in most places because of safety regulations.

Boston’s Occupy movement, which has roughly 300 overnight participants and could face some of the most brutal weather of any city with a major encampment, has set up a winterization committee that will try to obtain super-insulated sleeping bags and other winter survival gear. Activists from the movement’s flagship

encampment, consisting of hundreds of people in New York City’s Zuccotti Park, are sorting through packages arriving daily that include coats and jackets.

In Providence, where city officials are threatening to go to court to evict hundreds of campers from a park across from City Hall, a core group said it will remain through the winter months — if not there, somewhere else.

Rhode Island’s capital has an average low temperature in the 20s from December through February and recorded nearly 3½ feet of snow last year.

Many of the more than 100 tents are not built to withstand harsh conditions.

Temperatures were expected to drop into the 30s across much of the Northeast by Friday morning, and forecasters said snow is possible in some places over the weekend. Boston got its first dusting late Thursday night.

In Denver, as protesters prepared for this week’s snow, a few dozen sympathizers stopped by to drop off blankets, gloves, chili and hot chocolate. Police refused to let activists erect a tent. That left some sleeping on the wet ground, covered by snowy tarps.

“I welcome the challenge of this cold weather,” said Dwayne Hudson, a landscaper who has been living at the Occupy Denver site for nearly two weeks. “This is like war.

You know, soldiers do it when they occupy a place.

I’m sure the mountains of Afghanistan get pretty cold.”

But after the first snowfall, he admitted: “It’s getting tough.”

Eric Martin, who is on Occupy Boston’s winterization committee, said the group had raised about $35,000, which could help buy winter supplies. Various ideas are being discussed to keep tents warm without using combustionbased heaters, which are forbidden. Another proposal: igloos.

“We’re looking at ideas from military vets to survivalists, to the homeless community to indigenous peoples,” Martin said.

Activists in Philadelphia are also researching sturdier, warmer structures that could replace the 300 to 400 tents set up

on the concrete plaza surrounding City Hall.

Chris Goldstein of Riverside, N.J., owns one of the tents, though he sometimes sleeps at home.

He learned the hard way during the first rainfall that the site has poor drainage: “I occupied a puddle.” The self-employed writer and activist put pallets under the tent to lift it off the ground, and outfitted it with small carpets for insulation.

United Way announces Teens Taking Charge PIQUA — The Piqua Area United Way has announced the sixth year of the Teens Taking Charge Grant Program. The Teens Taking Charge program was established in 2005, with funding from the Piqua Area United Way and allows teens to function as a grant making committee.

The panel is made up of teens from the Piqua Chamber of Commerce Teen Leadership Piqua Program and will award grant money up to $750 for programs/projects that are geared for young people of the Piqua area, age 18 and under. This process will give the students the opportunity to screen and prioritize the applications, conduct in-

terviews, and make funding decisions based on their deliberations.

The Teens Taking Charge program provides a unique opportunity for students to assume leadership roles by giving back to their communities through service and by working with their contemporaries to address local concerns or needs through the funding of youth programs. The Re-

source Utilization Committee of the Piqua Area United Way will serve as the steering committee and will oversee the program.

Organizations that wish to request an application for funding may do so by contacting the Piqua Area United Way at 773-6786 or by email at p i q u a u n i t e d way@woh.rr.com. Deadline for grant submissions is Jan. 16.

PIQUA — A new seller and installer of vinyl siding, windows and flooring was welcomed to the downtown Piqua business landscape earlier this month and the new business is gearing up for its grand opening at the start of next month.

America’s Best Choice Windows & More, 201 N. Wayne St., recently opened Oct. 10, but will be holding a special business grand opening that is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 1, said owner Dan Shaffer.

Shaffer said the grand opening was delayed because of the street construction project that is currently underway in downtown Piqua.

The new business sells windows for $179 installed up to 120 inches in addition to vinyl siding and doors; flooring of all kinds; and other installer supplies.

What was the Q: St. Louis Cardinals record, before Friday, in the seventh game of a World Series?

A:

7-3

QUOTED "When you dream, you dream about seventh game, all the heroics."

—Tony LaRussa on the World Series

Nothing better

Game-Winning Save!

World Series goes to seventh game ST. LOUIS (AP) — A drained Tony La Russa sat behind the podium, jersey gone and a blue towel draped around his neck, "When you dream," the St. Louis Cardinals manager said, "you dream about seventh game, all the heroics."

After one of the greatest games in baseball history, a 10-9, 11-inning victory over Texas in Game 6 in which the Cardinals were twice within one strike of elimination, it was too soon for La Russa to announce his Game 7 starter. His choice was whether to send ace Chris Carpenter to the mound on short rest Friday night or start Kyle Lohse or Edwin Jackson.

"This is a very important game and if you don't want it, then there's no need to be here," Carpenter said.

Down to their final strike in the ninth and 10th, the Cardinals won Game 6 on David Freese's 11th-inning homer off Mark Lowe. Afterward, La Russa still would not commit to a Game 7 starter.

"Just barely started to think about tomorrow, but actually it'll be fun to think about it now because there is a Game 7," he said. "Might just roll Jake (Westbrook) back out there. Who knows?"

Texas manager Ron Washington made his decision days ago, announcing he would stay in rotation and start Matt Harrison, the Game 3 loser. Washington could have gone with Game 4 winner Derek Holland on full rest or ace C.J. Wilson on short rest.

"Harrison has been a big part of this team all year," Washington said. "I am not changing the things that I've been doing all year."

The eight-year absence of baseball's ultimate game is the longest since the World Series began in 1903. The Cardinals hold the record for most World Series Game 7s, going 7-3.

When a seventh game was last played in 2002, John Lackey pitched five innings of one-hit ball to lead the Anaheim Angels over the San Francisco Giants 4-1, completing a comeback from a 3-2 Series deficit. Lackey joined Babe Adams of the 1909 Pittsburgh Pirates as the only rookie starters to win a seventh game, and the Angels became the eighth straight home team to triumph in Game 7 since the victory by Pittsburgh's "We Are Family" team at Baltimore in 1979.

In 2001, Randy Johnson came out of the bullpen on no days' rest and the Diamondbacks rallied for two runs in the ninth inning against Mariano Rivera, beating the Yankees 3-2 on Luis Gonzalez's broken-bat single.

"When you're a little kid, you think about the seventh game of the World Series," Gonzalez said. "It didn't matter how the hit came."

While the Cardinals are seeking their 11th title, the Rangers are going for the first in the 51-year history of the franchise, which began as the expansion Washington Senators in 1961. The team moved to Texas for the 1972 season.

"We've been backed into a corner for the last two months," the Cardinals' Skip Schumaker said, "so we know what it feels like."

Carpenter won the opener, then allowed two runs in seven innings in Game 5 on Monday night, giving up solo homers to Mitch Moreland and Adrian Beltre.

Braxton Miller hopes to lead OSU to an upset win.

sides want to control the time of possession.

The game takes on particular emphasis now that the Big Ten has gone to two divisions.

In the Leaders Division, Penn State is 4-0 with the brunt of its schedule still ahead. Wisconsin and Purdue are next at 2-1. Surprisingly, Ohio State, which lost its first two conference games, could still slip into the Dec. 3 Big Ten title game if it were to run the table and Penn State were to lose one other game.

"If we keep fighting, we're going to have a chance," Buckeyes center Mike Brewster said. "It really just comes down to Saturday now. Even through everything we've been through this season, the ups and the downs, and the lows, to have a chance still — it makes you feel good."

A roaring, raucous crowd of more than 106,000 is expected to rock Ohio Stadium. There could not be a truer test of whether Wisconsin really can rebound from the heartbreaking loss.

"The mourning period came Saturday night," Badgers offensive lineman Travis Frederick said. "We came in on Sunday, watched the film and it's over. We've got to correct those things. Once we watched the film, we put it to bed and it's something that we're just going to move on and learn from."

The Covington Little Buccs program (above) won league championships last weekend as the junior varsity team (3rd & 4th grade) defeated Houston 20-12 and the varsity team (5th & 6th grade) also defeated Houston 13-6. Both championship games were played at Bradford.

and continuing to battle. I think that's what you'll see. Just like any good program, good team, sometimes that's a wakeup call and burns that fire in your belly a little bit more."

There are plenty of challenges for both sides.

The Badgers defense gave up 37 points and 399 yards and was outscored 23-0 in the second quarter in East Lansing, Mich.

The offense broke out to a 14-0 lead behind tailback Montee Ball and versatile quarterback Russell Wilson, then disappeared for the next two periods. In a game of dramatic ebb and flow, what will be remembered is that the Spartans made one more play.

There aren't many other options for the Badgers other than to try to turn things around.

"We faced some adversity, we came back from it.

And the last Hail Mary play, they come up with it," said Wilson, whose Heisman Trophy candidacy was tainted by the loss. "(Now we are) going to Ohio State. We just lost a game. Just getting through it and being positive, and just having a great week of practice ... and try and get a win."

Ohio State's passing game with freshman QB Braxton Miller has been anemic, while the running game featuring twice-suspended tailback Dan "Boom" Herron appears to be going full-throttle. Both

COLUMBUS (AP) — The questions started not long after the announcement last Saturday night that the call on the field had been overturned.

Once the official announced that a video review did indeed show that a Michigan State player had caught an incredible last-second pass and had in fact crossed the goal line to cost Wisconsin an unbeaten season, coach Bret Bielema and the Badgers were hit from all sides.

Why did he call timeouts in the final minute?

How come the defenders didn't knock down the prayer of a pass? Did Wisconsin's hope of playing for a national championship evaporate on one play?

Over the last week, the postmortems of the Spartans' 37-31 victory have been concluded. All of the questions have been answered, except one.

How will the Badgers respond in another Saturday night game on the road, this time against hungry Ohio State?

One thing appears certain: Wisconsin won't change what it does.

"Before that game, we'd won, I believe nine or 10 straight Big Ten Conference games by almost 30 points (apiece). That doesn't just happen. Over the last three seasons, there's only three, maybe four, teams that have won more games than we have in college football. That doesn't just happen," Bielema said.

Then he added, "When you are faced with adversity, you go back to what you believe in more than ever. You don't try to flinch, or you don't try to change what you're doing.

You go back to what you know is good."

The emotional fragility of the 12th-ranked Badgers (6-1, 2-1 Big Ten) remains the biggest unknown in a game that also provides perhaps a last gasp for the Buckeyes (4-3, 1-2). They have battled NCAA problems and suspensions and can still take a step toward salvaging their season with a win.

"I wouldn't expect (Wisconsin) to be down one bit," said Ohio State interim coach Luke Fickell.

"Whether you have a 21point lead, end up getting rolled, or whether you have a last-second play on the last play of the game — a loss is a loss and it's hard no matter how they happen. The sign of a program is getting back up

ARLO AND JANIS

HOROSCOPE Saturday, Oct. 29, 2011 Your chart shows that in the year ahead you could now receive some well-deserved rewards and recognition where you’ve previously been taken for granted. A new you, who might be a pretty tough cookie, will start to emerge.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — It’s nice of you to do a favor for someone, but make sure you don’t do so in a manner that leaves the person feeling tremendously obligated to you. Let him or her know that there are no strings attached.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — An acquaintance who isn’t particularly popular with your peer group could use some reassurance. Let this person know that you, at least, can be counted on as a friend.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You have greater fortitude than you may realize. You may find out just how much backbone you have, if you should feel threatened or challenged in any way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Usually it’s not wise to offer unsolicited advice, but someone to whom you have a close attachment might be able to profit from one of your past experiences. If so, speak up.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you believe something you’re doing is having a negative effect on your finances, by all means make corrections. It’s up to you to protect your interests.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Because you’re not likely to dodge difficult jobs, people or situations, your chances for achieving your goals will be heightened considerably. You’ll take things as they come.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Assistants and sidekicks will be watching every move you make in hopes of picking up some of your secrets to success.

Do a good job, because they will follow what you do to the letter.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Someone you’d least suspect could step up and be the one who’ll help you accomplish something you can’t do on your own. This newfound alliance will prove to be of benefit to both parties.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Meet your assignments head-on, even those that aren’t to your liking. Once you get into them, you’ll find they aren’t as difficult or distasteful as you thought.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Be satisfied with small gains instead of trying to make one huge, impressive killing.

When all the little stuff is put together, it’ll have a way of adding up into being something quite substantial.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Most things in general will be favorable for you, but your best possibilities for gain are likely to come from commercial or financial involvements. What you accomplish will be impressive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Of course it’s important for you to view developments realistically, but not to the point of taking things so seriously that you lose your sense of perspective.

Smile frequently.

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 Union branches are 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.

If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office at (800)282-0515.

Preferred Qualifications: •2+yrs exp. of structural steel, syphon and pressure systems.

Not as easy as it looks Kathy Henne Re/Max Finest Just as setting a listing price is ultimately your decision, so is whether to accept an offer. Your agent will give you advice, but the final decision is yours. These days, it can be difficult to decide if an offer is a good one, because there are so many influential factors. Getting an offer is the first positive step. Now take a deep breath and consider your option.

Are you under pressure to move?

Whether it’s finances, family, or a job transfer, the urgency of your need to move may dictate accepting an offer

lower than you had hoped for.

Likewise, how much debt do you still carry on your mortgagee? Unless you are listing under “short sale” terms, you don’t want to accept an offer that’s less than what you owe, so pay close attention to how closing costs affect your bottom line before making the decision to accept or counter an offer.

Another important factor to consider is whether or not the buyer is pre-approved for financing. If so, you can expect a quicker closing with less chance of surprises, and confidently begin the pursuit of purchasing your next home. Evan a lower offer from a pre-approved buyer maybe better than a higher offer from one whose financing falls through at the last minute.

Remember, offers are about negotiation and compromise. Be flexible and reasonable when considering any and all offers that come your way.

Do you really need title insurance Cyndie Scott Broker/ Owner

937-371-1719 When a home is purchased, title insurance is one of the closing cost items on the closing statement. This insurance protects the buyer from defects in the title that are not discovered until after the closing. There are two kinds of title insurance-coverage that protects the lender for the balance of the mortgage if the buyers have a loan, and coverage

that protects the buyers’ equity in the property.

It is prudent to purchase owners’ coverage because most of the title problems that arise after a closing are not from a sloppy title search, but are the result of inaccurate information in the public records. The ownership chain goes back a long way, and fraud or misrepresentation anywhere in the chain could mean big problems. Title insurance will protect you if a wife or husband did not properly sign off on the ownership papers or if the property was sold as part of an estate that was later disputed. Most people do not have to deal with the title insurance company after the closing, but this coverage could save your investment if a problem arises.
