The Ohio Department of Agriculture on Thursday confirmed a case of West Nile virus has been diagnosed in a horse from Shelby County, but has provided scant details of the incident. The department’s news release said samples were collected Aug. 1 and that results were confirmed by the agency Monday. Telephone calls to the Department of Agriculture and the Sidney-Shelby County Health Department Thursday seeking the location of the incident in Shelby County, owners of the horse, and
the condition of the stricken animal failed to produce additional information. A health department spokesperson said it is not unusual to not receive such initial notification and the ODA Communications department told a reporter it is currently able to provide only notification of the case. More information should be pending, a spokeswoman at the agency said. The news release advises that mosquitoes can pick up the West Nile virus from wild birds and may then transmit the infection to people and other ani-
mals. Studies show that cool, wet weather in early spring followed by very hot temperatures throughout the summer can result in increased mosquito activity. ODA says infection with West Nile virus does not always lead to signs of illness in people or animals. In horses that become clinically ill, the virus infects the central nervous system and may cause symptoms of encephalitis. Clinical signs of encephalitis in horses may include a general loss of appetite, depression, See VIRUS/Page 3

Obama camp attacks possible Romney VP choices BY DAN SEWELL Associated Press CINCINNATI (AP) — President Barack Obama and his Democratic allies aren’t waiting for Republican Mitt Romney to reveal his vice presidential choice. They’re already trying to scuff up those considered by political insiders to be most likely to join the GOP ticket. The president’s campaign started swinging at the potential Republican running mates this week while urging home-state Democrats to chime in about the shortcomings that — as emails to donors and supporters put it — “Americans need to know.” The preemptive strikes are an effort to define a possible No. 2 in a negative light and reflect a sense that time is precious to sway opinion in a stubbornly close presidential race dashing quickly toward November. Tim Pawlenty? The former Minnesota governor is a fee-raiser whose record “is painful for the middleclass families who lived under his leadership,” the Obama campaign argues. Rob Portman? The Ohio senator is “one of the architects of the top-down Bush budget” that the Obama team blames for “crashing our economy.” See VP CHOICES/Page 4

weakness in limbs, and possible fever. “Animal vaccination is a primary key to preventing the spread of West Nile virus among animals. I urge horse owners to consult their veterinarians about West Nile virus vaccinations as well as vaccinations for Eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), another viral disease spread by mosquitoes,” said State Veterinarian Dr. Tony Forshey. “Ohioans can reduce the risk of West Nile virus by eliminating the places where mosquitoes breed, such as standing water that is present for four or more days,” Forshey said. The following precautions can lower mosquito activity and reduce the risk of becoming infected with West Nile virus: • Dispose of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots, discarded tires, or any object on your property that could collect standing water. • Drill holes in the bottom of recycling containers left outdoors. • Have roof gutters cleaned every year, particularly if the leaves from nearby trees have a tendency to clog the drains. • Turn over plastic wading pools and wheelbarrows when not in use. • Don’t let water stagnate in birdbaths. • Aerate ornamental pools or stock them with fish. • Clean and chlorinate swimming pools and remove standing water from pool covers. • When possible, reduce outdoor exposure at dawn and dusk — the times of day when the mosquitoes that transmit West Nile virus are most active — during the warmer months of the year.

Kramer trial delayed until September
CDC: 158 cases of new swine flu strain from pigs ATLANTA (AP) — Don’t pet the pigs. That’s the message state and county fair visitors got Thursday from health officials who reported a five-fold increase of cases of a new strain of swine flu that spreads from pigs to people. Most of the cases are linked to the fairs, where visitors are in close contact with infected pigs. This flu has mild symptoms and it’s not really spreading from person to person. “This is not a pandemic situation,” said Dr. Joseph Bresee of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But any flu can be a risk for some people, and people should be cautious when they can, he added. The case count jumped from 29 a week ago to 158 this week, thanks to a wave of new cases in In-
diana and Ohio, said Bresee, the agency’s chief of influenza epidemiology. Most of the infected patients are children — probably because many were working closely with raising, displaying and visiting pigs at the agricultural fairs, Bresee said. The recent cases include at least 113 in Indiana, 30 in Ohio, one in Hawaii and one in Illinois, Bresee said in a conference call with reporters. The count is changing rapidly. Indiana health officials on Thursday afternoon said they had seven more confirmed cases than Bresee noted. That would raise the grand total to 165 so far. Also, diagnosis of cases has become quicker in the last week. CDC no longer must confirm a case with its own lab. Now states are using CDC test kits to confirm cases on their own on, speeding the process along. The newly
VP CHOICES Marco Rubio? The rookie Florida senator has “led the way on almost every extreme position Mitt Romney has embraced,” according to the missive that seeks examples of “the good, the bad and ugly” of Rubio. Chris Christie? There’s “no lack of material to work with” about the pugnacious New Jersey governor. Bobby Jindal? The Louisiana governor and former congressman tried to harm Social Security and Medicare and “had the same issues with secrecy and lack of transparency as Mitt Romney.” Those views are far from how Republicans regard the group. As many in the GOP see it, Pawlenty is extolled for his blue-collar appeal and budget restraint during eight years as governor; Portman is praised for a vast portfolio of experience and as someone who could help deliver a critical swing state; Rubio is a rising star who could help attract Hispanic voters; Christie is willing to take on entrenched interests and big problems
no matter whom he offends; and Jindal is a diverse face who saw his state through a major oil spill and has built a reputation as a budget and education reformer. Romney’s campaign criticized Obama for seeking the critiques. They are little more than “negative smear campaigns against the possible GOP vice presidential nominees,” Ohio-based spokesman Chris Maloney said. It’s not just the Obama operation that’s trying to tar the Republicans. Local Democratic officials in contested states aren’t letting visits by the would-be vice presidents go unchecked. In conference calls, they try to draw attention to what they say are the Republicans’ flaws, then quickly deliver biting assessments when one of them campaigns in a battleground state. Independent groups sympathetic to Obama are piling on as well. American Bridge 21st Century, a Washingtonbased super PAC, has already dumped a combined 1,651 unflattering pages of so-called

is a beautiful spot,” she said. Manor confirmed the village hopes to eventually acquire the three-acre park, situated just outside the village limits, from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources. Such a move was discussed at an earlier Village Council meeting, although negotiations with the state have not begun. A grant application to acquire and redevelop the property is also being considered.
reported cases were likely infected a week or two ago. The CDC has been tracking cases since last summer. A concern: The new strain has a gene from the 2009 pandemic strain that might let it spread more easily than pig viruses normally do. The good news is the flu does not seem to be unusually dangerous. Almost all of the illnesses have been mild and no one has died. Two of the recent cases were hospitalized, but both recovered and were discharged, Bresee said. More good news is that all of the recent cases appear to have spread from pigs to humans, meaning it’s not very contagious, at least between people. But there probably will be more cases in the weeks ahead, and it won’t be surprising if at least a few of them involve person-to-person transmission, Bresee said.

which he was associated with,” said Terry Lewis, assistant prosecuting attorney. Having an unlawful interest in a public contract is when a public official authorizes or employs authority or influence of the public official’s office “to secure authorization of any public contract in which the public official, a member of the public official’s family, or any of the public official’s business associates has an interest.” If convicted, Kramer faces between one to three years in prison, but could also receive probation. He remains free on a recognizance bond.

pleas of not guilty to two felony counts of having an unlawful interest in a public contract. The charges came to light following an investigation by the Ohio Ethics Commission earlier this year. Following the investigation, a Miami County grand jury indicted Kramer, who also is an area playby-play sports radio broadcaster and runs an online sports website. According to the indictment, Kramer allegedly committed the first offense between Jan. 25, 2008, and June 27, 2008, and the second offense between Dec. 5, 2008, and March 13, 2009. Kramer allegedly committed the offenses while he held his position at the community college and “was involved with obtaining media contracts (for Edison) when he had an interest in an agency

IN THIS Aug. 1photo, a sign warning people to wash their hands after being near farm animals hangs outside the Swine Barn at the Ohio State Fair, in Columbus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Thursday there’s been a five-fold increase of cases of a new strain of swine flu that spreads from pigs to people, thanks to a wave of new cases confirmed in Indiana and Ohio, many of them attributed to contact at fairs. The flu does not seem to be unusually dangerous, like the strain in 2009 that killed at least 12,000. Most or all of the cases appear to have spread from pigs to humans, meaning it’s not very contagious.

World-record speech PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) — He’s no Castro or Chavez, but Asia's longest serving ruler has set what appears to be a personal record for longest public speech: 5 hours and 20 minutes. Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen spoke to the lower house of parliament in a nationally televised speech Thursday that was mandatory viewing for civil servants. Government spokesman Khieu Kanharith said he believed it was Hun Sen’s longest speech in 27 years as prime minister. Hun Sen, 61, spoke without taking breaks — or questions — mostly on sensitive border disputes with Vietnam.

Romney, Obama bemoan attack ads — but both benefit BY JULIE PACE Associated Press PUEBLO, Colo. (AP) — Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama both deplored the pervasive presence of televised attack ads in the race for the White House on Thursday, though neither acknowledged being helped as well as harmed. Each blamed his foe. Romney went first, saying of the president’s campaign, “They just blast ahead” with ads that have been judged false by independent fact checkers. “I don’t know whatever happened to a campaign of ‘hope and change,’” he said, a mocking reference to the spirit of optimism that Obama evoked during his successful run for the White House in 2008.
Obama ignored the slap. He told an audience in Colorado that “over the next three months, you will see more negative ads,” and he suggested the blame lies with outside groups backing his rival. “I mean, these super PACs, these guys are writing $10 million checks and giving them to Mr. Romney’s supporters,” he said. Obama spoke as his own campaign unleashed yet another in the attack ad category, this one questioning whether there was ever a year in which Romney paid no federal taxes. ‘We don’t know,” the announcer says, then quickly adds that Romney once “personally approved over $70 million in fictional losses to the IRS as part of … one of the largest tax avoidance schemes in history.” Romney broached the subject two
days after the release of a searing ad in which a former steelworker appears to suggest that he and Bain Capital, the private equity firm he owned, might bear some responsibility for the man’s wife’s death from cancer. The ad is the work of Priorities USA Action, a group that supports Obama, and it has been judged inaccurate by independent fact checkers and attacked vociferously by aides to the GOP presidential challenger. The back and forth took place as Romney looked ahead to a bus tour through four states in as many days, ending next Tuesday in Ohio. The itinerary renewed speculation that the trip might culminate in the announcement that the state’s Sen. Rob Portman would be the named vice presidential running mate on the Republican ticket.
Airlines improve BY SCOTT MAYEROWITZ Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. airlines are more punctual and less likely to lose your bag than at any time in more than two decades. Travelers still have to put up with packed planes, rising fees and unpredictable security lines, but they are late to fewer business meetings and are not missing as many chances to tuck their kids into bed. Nearly 84 percent of domestic flights arrived within 15 minutes of their scheduled time in the first half of the year — the best performance since the government started keeping track in 1988. The improvement over the first six months of 2011, when 77 percent of flights were on time, is mostly a result of good weather and fewer planes in the sky because of the weak economy. Airlines are also doing a better job of handling bags. Fewer than three suitcases per 1,000 passengers were reported lost, damaged or delayed from January through June, a record low. The two areas of improvement are related: When flights are late, bags often miss their connection. “My flights this year have been way better,” said Amanda Schuier, a sales manager for a Kansas City, Mo., trucking supplier who flies roughly four times a week. “In the past six months, I’ve only had two delays.” If the current pace continues, the airlines will beat their best full-year performance, recorded in 1991, when nearly 83 percent of flights arrived on time. The worst full year was 2000, when just 73 percent of flights arrived on time, according to an Associated Press analysis of Bureau of Transportation Statistics data. The worst year for baggage handling was 1989, when nearly eight suitcases per 1,000 passengers were reported late, lost or damaged.

Iran tries to calm Syria crisis as violence rages BY ELIZABETH A. KENNEDY Associated Press BEIRUT (AP) — As Syrian forces struggled to drive rebels from the country’s largest city, the regime’s key ally Iran tried Thursday to start an alternative political process to address the crisis. Iran gathered an array of nations ranging from strong supporters of Damascus to farflung nations a world away from the Syrian civil war. The one-day forum is unlikely to result in any international consensus, but it shows Iran’s resolve to stand by President Bashar Assad as his forces try to crush the 17month-old uprising. On Thursday, Syrian rebels said they were low on ammunition but still managed to put up resistance against a regime ground offensive in the city of Aleppo, a center of fighting for more than two weeks. Tehran billed Thursday’s conference as a way to focus on
dialogue — an alternative to Western-led initiatives that call for Assad to give up power. Iran has said in the past that the Syrian regime’s critics fail to take into account violence by the rebels. “Iran is against the killing of unarmed people and citizens by any side,” Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said at the gathering. He also warned that sending weapons to the opposition will only fuel the crisis, and he accused rebels of using civilians as “human shields.” Syrian rebels last week intercepted a bus carrying 48 Iranians in a Damascus suburb and seized them. Rebels claimed the men are military personnel, including some members of Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard, who were on a “reconnaissance mission” to help Assad’s crackdown. Iran, however, says the 48 were pilgrims visiting a Shiite shrine in Damascus. Salehi said Wednesday that some of
the pilgrims are retired members of the army and Revolutionary Guard. The overwhelmingly Sunni Muslim rebels have also seized 11 Lebanese Shiite pilgrims who have been held in northern Syria since May. Salehi said some 30 countries attended the meeting, including Russia and China, as well as far-off Benin, Cuba and Mauritania. The meeting was called at short notice, and most countries were represented at the ambassador level. Russia in the past has urged the West to allow Tehran to take part in international discussions on how to settle the Syrian crisis, arguing that the Islamic republic could play an important role. Moscow has been the main protector and ally of Assad’s regime, shielding it from U.N. sanctions over its brutal crackdown on an uprising that has evolved into a full-blown civil war. The U.S. dismissed the Iranian gathering.
Komen founder to step down as CEO BY JAMIE STENGLE Associated Press DALLAS (AP) — As her sister was dying from breast cancer, Nancy G. Brinker made a promise to her: She would do everything she could to end the disease. Brinker fulfilled that solemn comBrinker mitment by founding a breast cancer charity in 1982 that grew into the world’s largest — a national fundraising powerhouse that has invested $780 million in research and $1.3 billion in services such as
screening and education over the last three decades. Now Brinker, the public face of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is stepping down as CEO, about six months after the organization’s hotly debated decision to end funding for breast screenings through Planned Parenthood. The move was quickly reversed after an onslaught of criticism but ended up stirring anger on both sides of the abortion debate. Brinker, 65, will move to a new role focusing on fundraising and strategic planning. “She’s wanting now to kind of get away from the day-today operation as CEO,” said Komen spokeswoman Andrea Rader. She said Brinker will concentrate on “growing the global work, working on the
strategy and of course raising the funds,” and she will still have “a major role in the organization.” On Wednesday, the group also announced that Komen President Liz Thompson will step down next month, and two board members are leaving as well. They are just the latest departures. After the Planned Parenthood episode, at least a half-dozen other high-ranking executives resigned, and organizers of many Race for the Cure events — the group’s signature fundraiser — have seen participation decline. Rader said neither Thompson nor Brinker was available to answer questions Thursday. But she insisted their moves
were not the result of the Planned Parenthood decision, noting that Brinker has only served as CEO since 2009 and wanted a different focus. Thompson, she said, had been thinking of making a change for a while but had agreed to stay on until the controversy died down. Among those who publicly opposed cutting off Planned Parenthood were some Komen affiliates, including the one for Oregon and southwest Washington, which saw its chief executive resign in the aftermath. The group issued a statement saying it views this week’s leadership changes as “part of the process of moving past the distraction of earlier this year.”

Using the ironing board as a table is still good, but put down a towel or tablecloth before using. If you do spill, let the hotel housekeeping know so that the cover may be cleaned or replaced. — Heloise SHOWER SHOCKER Dear Heloise: When I shower, I like using liquid soap or shower gel. It often is cold to the touch, even though my bathroom is warm. Is there any way to quickly warm it up? — Margaret in Cleveland Margaret, you’re right! Just hold the bottle under the running warm water in your
shower for a couple of minutes. Or fill the sink with hot water and put the bottle of soap in to get it warm. — Heloise WATER BALLOON Dear Heloise: My kids love to have water-balloon fights during the summer. I found an easy way to fill the balloons that doesn’t make a mess. I took an old sports water bottle and filled it with water. The kids then slip the neck of the balloon over the spout of the bottle and squeeze. Easy! — Cindy, via email CUT CORK Dear Heloise: Corks can be drilled or cut to fit snugly over pointed wall hooks for prevention of dimples or holes in clothing hung on the hook. Synthetic and champagne corks work best. — Eliott, via email

Tenth Applefest nears The Shelby County Applefest was first observed in the year 2003 as a celebration of Ohio’s Bicentennial. Success was immediate and this annual event has continued to expand in both popularity and attendance. The 2012 Applefest will mark the 10-year anniversary and is scheduled for Sept. 7-9. The original concept for Applefest was to set aside a weekend of activities during which Shelby County residents and neighbors could come together to celebrate life and to enjoy quality time with family and friends. It is a time to avow and recognize that the people of Shelby County are truly as “American as apple pie.” All activities and entertainment will be offered free of charge and the event in its entirety will be centered in historic downtown Sidney. Children’s activities and a variety of live entertainment will be presented on two stages. To help ensure true familyfriendly nature of Applefest, no alcoholic beverages will be permitted.
Applefest is organized by an all-volunteer board of directors. In 2012, Amy Pike has served as the chairwoman. According to Pike, “Every detail of Applefest continues to be meticulously managed so that, come the weekend after Labor Day each September, thousands can enjoy a true taste of Americana under the shade trees of the Shelby County courthouse.” The 2012 festival will feature live entertainment from the Big Band era to the music of today on the main stage. All who attend this year’s Applefest are sure to enjoy the craft, quilt, floral, car, and Shelby County woodcarvers shows, along with an abundant variety of vendors offering everything from home-grown and homemade items to apple-themed food and soft drinks. The Grown in Shelby County contest, kiddie tractor pull, Applefest photo contest, and 10K, 5K, and kids 1-mile fun run are a part of this year’s Applefest. On Sept.
8 and 9, the kids activities area will be in full swing, offering arts and crafts activities for children along with an entertaining lineup of live performances on the Kid’s Stage. The Shelby County Historical Society will host a Native American gathering featuring presentations by Dr. Herman Viola, a well-recognized expert on Native American culture, an encampment, and Native American exhibits at the Ross Center. The return of the annual Applefest parade and combined high school band performance have been planned for Sept. 9. New to Applefest will be a Shelby County business and industry timeline exhibit depicting the history of local companies and organizations. It will be exhibited at the Historic Sidney Theatre and in the storefront windows of several downtown businesses. In conjunction with the exhibit, children will be encouraged to visit each display and will be awarded a special prize for doing so. To view a complete schedule of activities, visit www.ShelbyApplefest.co m.

Dayton Art Institute offers subscriptions to two performance series the prospect of finding common ground. Written by Steven Tomlinson, directed by Jenny Wanasek, and starring Emmy award-winning and critically acclaimed actor and comedian John McGivern, “American Fiesta” is a witty, hopeful tale of imperfection and acceptance. “Behind the Scenes in American Politics with PF Bentley,” Oct. 18 — Just in time in time for the 2012 presidential election, former Time magazine photojournalist P.F. Bentley tells the story behind some of the most telling political images of our generation and what he had to do to get “inside” the tightly closed doors of the White House, Capitol Hill, and presidential campaigns for the past 20 years. “Charles Phoenix’s Rhetro Holiday Slide Show,” Dec. 6 — Charles Phoenix spreads holiday cheer with a sly, entertaining, live, comedy performance that celebrates mid-century holiday life and style. With his unstoppable enthusiasm and wry, eagle eye for the very best and most bizarre of his massive collection of found Kodachrome slides, Phoenix supercharges the classic living room slide show into a hyster-
ical celebration of American holiday life and style. It’s a 1950s/1960s New Year, Easter, Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas jubilee that’s sure to get everyone in the mood for the holidays. All Arts Night Out performances begin at 8 p.m. in the museum’s NCR Renaissance Auditorium. The Zoot Theatre Company will bring its puppet artistry to life on the stage of the NCR Renaissance Auditorium as a new resident company of the DAI. Zoot’s 2012-2013 MainStage Series includes: “The Hobbit,” Sept. 28-Oct. 14 — Join Zoot Theatre puppeteers in Middle Earth, as they tell the tale of Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit who is much like the rest of us: he would rather sit at home and avoid any kind of adventures. When the wizard, Gandalf, and his company of 13 dwarves make a surprise visit, Bilbo is dragged unwittingly into an adventure that includes goblin dodging, battles and dragon slaying. This is J. R. R. Tolkien’s masterpiece brought to life. “A Christmas Carol,” Nov. 30-Dec. 15 — This
haunting tale of Scrooge and Marley will be given new life in this all-new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ classic Christmas story It will feature a small cast of live actors and tons of puppets to help bring the age-old story to life. “And a Child Shall Lead,” April 5-14 — This is the true story of children coming of age in Terezin, the “Jewish city” established by the Nazis as a way station before the death camps. In the face of unspeakable horror, these children use their determination and creativity — playing, studying, making art, and writing an underground newspaper — all at the peril of being executed. Their actual poems and stories are woven into this fast-paced drama. Zoot Theatre Company performances begin at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and
2 p.m. on Sundays. Season subscriptions for Arts Night Out and The Zoot Theatre Company’s 2012-2013 MainStage Series, as well as combined subscription packages for both series, are on sale now.

On top of the world Fathers, sons hike 67 miles of Appalachian Trail BY MELANIE SPEICHER mspeicher@sdnccg.com It was a time for fathers and sons to bond. A time for friendships to grow even more. And where was this bonding done? During a 67-mile, six-day hike of the Appalachian Trail. Paul Soliday and his son, Lance, and Mike Snider and his sons, Jason and Matt, decided in January they wanted to tackle more than a weekend hike. They are members of the First United Methodist Church in Sidney and the church sponsors weekend hikes for its members. So the five, all of Sidney, along with Ken Hemsworth, Joe Spangler and Clayton Westerbeck, all of Sidney, and Eric McNutt, of Michigan, a former Sidney resident, decided to hike the Appalachian Trail from Davenport Gap, which is in Tennessee, to Fontana Dam, which is in North Carolina. Paul, a retired industrial arts teacher at Sidney High School, began hiking six years ago. During his first year of teaching at SHS in 1968, Mike was in his class. During his last year of teaching in 1998, Matt was in his class. “My son suggested it when a group was going from the church,” said Paul. Mike also got involved with hiking through the church. “I thought it would be something interesting to do,” said Mike. Both men have gone on numerous hikes through the church. “After I went the first year, I told Matt that he might want to try it because it was kind of neat,” said Mike. “The next year Matt went along.” Brother Jason also decided to try hiking and joined the group on this trip. The church groups have hiked the Smokey Mountains and in Kentucky. Hiking regulations on the Appalachian Trail vary from those in the Smokey Mountains. “They want to preserve the

The temperatures during the day rose to the 80s, they said. At night, the temps cooled down to the 30s. “For every 1,000 feet of elevation you go up, you lose 4 degrees,” said Matt. “Plus if you sit for very long, you’d get cooled off quickly,” said Paul. The shelters were built by the Civilian Conservation Corp. Today, they are maintained by volunteers who also take care of the trails. The shelters were built on the east side of the top to protect the hikers from the wind at night. They would have to walk several miles off the trail to get to the shelters. “The whole trail is maintained by volunteers,” said Matt. “They have park rangers who make sure the people are where they should be.” The men set their own pace on how far and long they hiked each day. “During the hike, we went 10 miles all up hill,” said Mike. “And you get tired. We’d just go slow and get to a resting point. The first day we hiked 10 miles and there weren’t very many flat areas on the trail.” During the hike, they walked up and down the trail. They reached elevations of 5,000 feet in the air. “We passed by the highest point on the Appalachian Trail which is 7,000 feet,” said Matt. The trails are rough and follow dried out creek beds. Volunteers have also put in logs to make steps to go up and down the mountains. Because of the thick foliage, they didn’t see many animals. They did see a rattlesnake and wild turkeys. “They turkeys weren’t afraid of us because no one has ever shot at them,” said Matt. “We were about 20 yards away from them.” They were surprised midway through the trip by two friends from Sidney, Kent and Jan Witt. Kent usually goes on the hikes with them but was unable to make this one. There is one highway which passes through the portion of the Appalachian Trail they walked and it comes from Gatlinburg. The Witts were waiting for the hikers with apples, fruit, ice water, sweet ice tea and Subway sandwiches. The hikers appreciated the “cold” food because ice isn’t available on the trail. When they started the trip, the group set a goal of completing the hike in eight days. They walked 10 miles, 15 miles and 13 miles the first three days on the trail. They were able to complete the hike in six days, much to their delight. “The best part of the hike was being together and enjoying each other’s company,” said Mike. “We set out and accomplished our goal,” said Paul. “This was kind of over the top, even for us.”

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, Aug. 11, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You feel unusually upbeat and optimistic today. In fact, you believe that you can do anything! Enjoy all relations with others, especially siblings and neighbors. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is an excellent day for business and commerce. You feel very optimistic about something. If shopping, be careful you don’t overextend yourself or go overboard. (It’s easy to do.) GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) It’s a rare event when the Moon is in your sign lined up with Jupiter! Naturally, you’re full of good feelings. You feel self-confident and particularly generous to everyone. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) An experience in a group setting might occur today that makes you feel more spiritual or more in tune with your beliefs. It certainly gives you a good feeling in your tummy and makes you feel good about yourself. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Relations with female friends are particularly positive today. You might be able to help someone, or vice versa; someone might help you. It’s all good. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) It doesn’t get much better than this! You make a fabulous impression on others today, but not only that — details of your private life are now public, and everyone is impressed. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Travel opportunities abound! Make plans to go somewhere or to get further education or training somehow. This is all in the palm of your hand. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Keep your pockets open, because gifts, goodies and favors from others can come your way today. Don’t look for attached strings, just say, “Thank you.” SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your dealings with members of the general public will be extremely positive today. In addition, relations with partners and close friends will be equally warm and friendly. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This can be a wonderful day at work, especially in terms of working with groups. Pleasant, work-related travel might please you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a fabulous day to party! Accept all invitations. Watch sports, grab a movie or meet friends for good food and drink, because this is a fun-loving day. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Entertaining at home will please everyone today, so invite the gang over for pizza and beer! This is also good day to explore real-estate opportunities. Keep your eyes open. YOU BORN TODAY You have a strong desire to get to the bottom of things and reveal the truth. In fact, some of you are whistleblowers. You have insight into human nature, and you’re not afraid to tackle huge projects and put them in perspective. Essentially, you are a truth seeker who wants to be heard. A lovely, social year awaits you. All relationships will be blessed. Birthdate of: Viola Davis, actress; Joe Jackson, musician; Hulk Hogan, celebrity wrestler. (c) 2012 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

It is work done
to raise body temperature before play. Warming up enhances the circulation of blood and increases the heart rate. You’re not starting to play with a cold engine. Warm-ups are done simply by imitating the action of a particular sport but at a reduced speed and intensity. Baseball pitchers, for example, warm up by throwing with less force than they would if they were on the mound, trying to get a batter to miss the ball. I am definitely on your side, H.H. You don’t need to stretch before running. You are wasting time in doing so. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I developed pain in my right thigh at about pocket level. I think I can blame my walking program. I jumped from walking one mile a week to walking four. What do
you think I have? — D.C. ANSWER: From the location of the pain, I’d say you have bursitis, trochanteric bursitis, to be precise. Bursas are small, flat disks inserted between tendons and bones to prevent friction as tendons rub against the bone. An overworked bursa is inflamed and painful. Stop the walking for three weeks. Ice the painful area for 15 minutes three times a day. If after three days, the pain has not lessened, switch to moist heat. If you have no health reasons that prohibit the use of nonst e r o i d a l anti-inflammatory drugs, start taking one like Advil or Aleve. If the pain has not gone by three weeks, you have to consult a doctor. Conditions other than trochanteric bursitis could be at play.

After each crush falls through, Alana says her life is awful and it must be her fault. When I try to tell her it’s not her fault and she’s a wonderful person, she ends the conversation.

25 years Aug. 10, 1987 “My life revolved around the music department,” said Paul Fitzwater about his years as a Sidney School music teacher. Paul and Ruth Fitzwater lived in Sidney from 1947 to 1971 and both taught music for Sidney City Schools, The Fitzwaters now live in West Manchester, Ohio. After Mr. Fitzwater had taught school 35 years, the couple decided to retire and move from Sidney back to Mr. Fitzwater’s hometown since his mother was ill and living alone. He started by teaching high school band and some vocal classes as well as instrumental music at the elementary school. After a few years he became supervisor and directed the high school orchestra and elementary strings and gave lessons. He also directed the high school jazz band. He mainly worked with the fifth graders on up, Fitzwater said. Mrs. Fitzwater taught for 5 years with most of the years in Sidney. She taught elementary vocal music at Central, Whittier, Orange Township, Parkwood, Longfellow and Lowell elementary schools at various times. ––––– These news items from past issues of the Sidney Daily News are compiled by the Shelby County Historical Society (498-1653) as a public service to the community.

Browns’ Ryan says Bengals will Richardson need to prepare for wildcat has surgery CORTLAND, N.Y. (AP) — It’s Tebow Time. Finally. After months of hype, a summer highlighted by a shirtless jog through the rain and constant media scrutiny, Tim Tebow is set to make his playing debut for the New York Jets in their preseason opener against the Bengals on Friday night in Cincinnati. “I just want to get in there, try to execute the offense and get in and out of checks,” Tebow said. Coach Rex Ryan plans to have Mark Sanchez and the rest of the starters play about one quarter, and Tebow could play about two quarters with the backups. Tebow has worked mostly with the second-team offense throughout training camp, but took two snaps with the starters Wednesday and threw a pretty 60-yard touchdown pass to Patrick Turner. New offensive coordinator Tony Sparano and the Jets (No. 17 in the AP Pro32) have kept their plans for Tebow in their wildcat-style package mostly under wraps, unveiling only a brief look at a play or two in camp while they continue to work on his mechanics and footwork. “I think we’ll see how Tony uses him,” Ryan said. “Generally, the (second team) gets extended and sometimes they play a half or two quarters, so we’ll see if that’s in Tony’s plan or not. Then, Ryan broke out into a smile. “Wildcat,” he said, “is something that Cincinnati needs to prepare for right now.” Which means the Bengals (No. 14 in the AP Pro32) probably won’t see much of it. Ryan said “I doubt” Tebow will get any snaps with the first-team offense Friday night. Since it’s still so early in the preseason, the Jets are still installing

We’re going He went 8 of 13 for 105 to go out there and we’re just yards in the second half of the
Broncos’ 33-24 loss in that one, but it was the final play that was the most memorable. He scrambled 7 yards for a touchdown, getting blasted by linebacker Abdul Hodge before running over safety Kyries Hebert to score. Tebow said he tore an oblique muscle and thought Hebert got a concussion on the play. “Yeah, I remember, just because I’m super competitive, the meaningless last play of the game,” Tebow said, smiling. “Maybe 4 seconds left, 3 seconds left on the clock, and we’re at maybe the 8-yard line going in and I drop back and I don’t have anyone and so I’m scrambling around and I run and I dive in the end zone and have a big collision.” Tebow remembered thinking: “I’ve got to be the first one to get up.” He was, and it was all worth it. “Absolutely,” he said, laughing. “I mean, that’s who I am. So, yeah it was fun.” Bengals defensive end Carlos Dunlap knows all about the Jets quarterback after they were teammates at the University of Florida. “It will be pretty good to actually get my hands on him and get him down,” Dunlap said, joking that he never got to touch him during practice as Gators teammates. “It will be friendly after the game and before the game, but during the game, we’ll compete.” Tebow has worked as the punt protector on special teams throughout camp, so he could be in position to actually tackle someone himself. “I don’t know, I’ve never done it before,” Tebow said with a laugh when asked what he’ll be expecting on that first punt. “It’ll be fun. We’ll figure out what they’re doing and hopefully have something good ready.”
Work begins to repair soccer field Lehman has already rescheduled preseason, regular season matches Lehman athletic director Dick Roll today announced that the girls soccer scrimmage scheduled for Saturday at Lehman has been moved to Landrum Field. In addition to Lehman, the scrimmage includes teams from Kenton Ridge, West Liberty-Salem, and Bath High Schools. The scrimmage begins at 9 a.m. The scrimmage is being moved because of the damage done to Lehman’s home field Sunday morning. The damage was caused when a utility truck was driven across the field. When making the return trip, the truck became stuck, and additional damage was done when a tow truck was called to extricate the vehicle. Damage estimates reportedly exceed $10,000. “The representatives (from the company) have been most apologetic,” Lehman President Mike Barhorst said. “Their claims representatives authorized reconstructive work immediately. As a result, landscaping crews have been working non-stop. We are hopeful that our teams will be able to play at least the last bit of the season on their home field.” That sentiment was echoed by girls soccer coach Tony Schroeder. “The seniors have looked forward to playing their final season on their field their entire careers. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen. It would appear that if everything goes well, we may be able to salvage the last quarter of the season,” Schroeder stated.

ONE Of the crew of worker's doing restorative work at Lehman's soccer field works to aerate the field. The field was damaged by a utility truck on Sunday, forcing the school to reschedule many preseason and regular-season boys and girls soccer matches. “We are grateful for all who have offered help,” Roll added. “Duane Gaier (Sidney Parks and Recreation Director) has bent over backwards to help. Jeff Emrick from Shelby County Youth Soccer is working to set up the goals and the nets for the games this weekend. Sidney athletic director Jeff Courter called yesterday and offered the use of their field. And I can’t thank enough Tom Thornton for the long hours he and his crews have put in working to restore the fields to a playing condition. In addition to Saturday’s scrimmage, the boys scrim-
mage on Tuesday will also be played at Landrum Field at 5 p.m. The girls scrimmage against St. Marys on Wednesday will also be played at Landrum at 5:30. On Aug. 18, the Lehman girls team will scrimmage Waynesville at Sidney High at 11:30 a.m. The girls home game against Celina on Aug. 25 will be moved to Celina at 11 a.m. The boys home game on the same date against Miami Valley will be moved to Miami Valley at 3 p.m. The girls home game on Aug. 27 against Graham will
be played at Sidney High at 5 p.m., and the boys home game against Greenville on Sept. 6 will also be played at Sidney at 5 p.m. “We’ll have to assess the condition of the field in early September to determine playability for the remainder of the season,” Barhorst said. “I can’t thank enough all who have offered help. From Duane Gaier’s call Sunday morning to (Sidney superintendent) John Schue’s call yesterday afternoon, the offers of assistance to my office have been affirmation of the wonderful community in which we live.”
BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Trent Richardson won’t play in the Browns’ first preseason game. Cleveland, though, hopes the heralded rookie will be able to rebound from left knee surgery in time for the season opener. “We anticipate that Trent will make a speedy recovery, and we are hopeful that he will be ready for our Week 1 game against Philadelphia,” coach Pat Shurmur said Thursday in a statement issued by the team. Richardson, the quick and powerful running back drafted No. 3 overall, underwent what the Browns termed “routine arthroscopic” surgery by Dr. James Andrews in Pensacola, Fla., as expected. Andrews did a similar procedure on Richardson on Feb. 3, to repair damaged meniscus cartilage. Richardson sat out practice for the first time Tuesday with soreness in the knee. The Browns were hopeful that Richardson, who helped lead Alabama to the national championship in January, would make a quick recovery in time to play Friday night in Detroit against the Lions in the preseason opener. Montario Hardesty will start in place of Richardson against the Lions. It will be an opportunity for Hardesty to see how far he has come back from knee surgery two years ago. “It’s a chance for the whole team to go out and show what they can do,” said Hardesty, a second-round choice in 2010 who was injured in preseason that year and missed his entire rookie year. “I’m excited, but I would be anyway,” Hardesty said. “It will just be good to go out and face another team and show what we, collectively, have done to improve.” Shurmur said Chris Ogbannaya, a midseason pickup from Houston last year, and former Green Bay running back Brandon Jackson will also see time. Jackson hurt a toe during the Browns’ preseason game against Detroit last August and though he did not need surgery, missed the entire season. The Browns came to training camp this year confident that rookie quarterback Brandon Weeden, Richardson and other draft choices could help them improve upon successive 4-12 finishes. Instead, they have been hit hard by injuries. Defensive lineman Phil Taylor, their first pick a year ago, is out until midseason after pectoral muscle surgery. Veteran linebacker Chris Gocong is done for the year with a torn right Achilles tendon. In addition, linebacker Scott Fujita is facing a threegame suspension for his role in the Saints’ bounty scandal, and cornerback Joe Haden may be suspended four games for reportedly failing a test for banned substances. Fujita’s appeal on his suspension will be heard Friday. Haden, the Browns and the NFL have not officially addressed rumors of the defensive back’s situation.

Pettersson leads in PGA KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. (AP) — The breakthrough moment Thursday wasn’t just the sun shining over Kiawah Island. It was Carl Pettersson breaking 70 for the first time in 21 tries at the PGA Championship to take the lead, Rory McIlroy flashing that boyish smile and bashing tee shots. And yes, even John Daly showing there might be another cycle left in that up-and-down career. Pettersson, a winner earlier this year in South Carolina down the coast at Hilton Head, got the best of the weather on a steamy day on the Ocean Course and didn’t waste the opportunity. He made three birdies in four holes, never dropped a shot and wound up with a 6-under 66. “There really wasn’t much wind on the front nine, so I knew I had to keep going low because I figured the wind would get up,” Pettersson said. “The wind started blowing a little bit on the back nine, and I carried on solid play. So it was a great day for me.” It was a good day for Tiger Woods, nothing more. Despite having to get up-and-down for bogey on three holes, he made enough birdie putts for a 69, a reasonable start as he tries to end the longest drought of his career in the majors. This is his 14th major since he won his last one in 2008, and the last one of an otherwise good season. “Anything in the 60s is going to be a good start in a major championship,” Woods said. “And I’m right there.” He had plenty of com-

JOHN DALY watches his putt on the 13th hole during the first round for the PGA Championship golf tournament on the Ocean Course of the Kiawah Island Golf Resort in Kiawah Island, S.C., Thursday. pany, some players who had not been heard from in a while, others that were all too familiar. Gary Woodland, who started the season with a new coach (Butch Harmon) and injured himself working too hard on the changes, is feeling better and hitting it longer than ever. He opened with a 67, as did McIlroy and Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano. “I drove the ball the best I’ve driven it all year,” Woodland said, one of the most powerful players in the game.
“And when I drive it like that, I’m playing a game that most guys can’t play out here.” Daly made an eagle on the par-5 11th hole and was in the group at 68 that included former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy and defending PGA champion Keegan Bradley, who had a birdie-eagle start before he settled into his round. Adam Scott, in his first major since throwing away the British Open with four bogeys on his last four holes, quickly got back into the
mix with a 68, one of the better scores from the late starters. The flags started to ripple in the afternoon, though not enough to make Kiawah as frightening as it can be. With so much rain over the last week, including storms that limited practice time before the championship began, the greens were soft and fairways slow. Those were the kind of conditions McIlroy had when he shattered the scoring record at the U.S. Open last summer at Congressional. More than soft conditions, though, was that bounce in his step while walking down the fairway after blistering his tee shots. He hit 10 drivers, most of them were he was aiming. McIlroy was bogeyfree, and while he failed to make birdie on a couple of the par 5s, he picked up a shot on the field at the 249-yard 14th hole, which features severe slopes off every corner of the green. Leave it to the 23year-old from Northern Ireland to hit a towering 3-iron that settled 12 feet from the flag, one of only six birdies on the par 3 in the first round. McIlroy has been a disappointment in the majors this year —much of his season has gone the wrong direction since he briefly rose to No. 1 in the world after winning the Honda Classic in March — but got a pep talk from putting coach Dave Stockton and has spent more time playing instead of practicing technique. Perhaps some luck is starting to come his way, too.
Slagle gets NCAA award Bowling Green State University women's basketball standout Jessica Slagle, a LehmanH i g h S c h o o l g r a d u a t e, has been honored Slagle with an NCAA Sportsmanship Award, the NCAA office announced recently. Slagle is one of just four student-athletes to earn the award. The winners, representing all three membership divisions, have been honored with the award, which is given for notable displays of sporting behavior. The NCAA Committee on Sportsmanship and Ethical Conduct selected the winners. "The entire BG family is extremely proud of Jess Slagle for receiving this prestigious award from the NCAA," said
BGSU women's basketball head coach Jennifer Roos. Roos and her staff nominated Slagle for the award. "For her to be recognized as the only Division I female recipient is an outstanding achievement. Jess was an integral part of our program's earning four MAC championships during her tenure, but her quality character and high level of sportsmanship will leave a longer lasting impression than any game in which she played." Slagle, a native of Sidney, was a team tri-captain and an All-Mid-American Conference second-team selection in 2011-12, her senior season. Normally a 2 guard, Slagle was forced to play point guard in leading the Falcons to their eighth consecutive MAC regular-season championship, and “maintained the perfect balance be-
tween aggressively doing what is necessary to win the game while being compassionate for every athlete on the court,” said BGSU Director of Athletics Greg Christopher. He cited one game during which two players collided going for a loose ball. An opponent was bleeding from a head wound, and Slagle rushed to her side, holding her up so she wouldn’t pass out and also holding a towel in place until a staff member intervened. “This player was able to come back and hit the game-winning bucket, making Jess’ concern and assistance all the more respectable,” Christopher said. In another case, when it appeared an opponent had suffered a broken bone, Slagle stood with her until the athletic trainer arrived. Slagle later checked with the training staff to see how
Mesoraco returns to Reds’ lineup CHICAGO (AP) — Cincinnati Reds catcher Devin Mesoraco was back in the starting lineup a day after he was activated off the sevenday concussion disabled list. Mesoraco was batting eighth Thursday night against the Chicago Cubs. The 24-year-old rookie was hurt in a collision with San Diego runner Cameron Maybin on July 30 and later ejected for bumping plate umpire Chad
Fairchild. Mesoraco left in the sixth inning the next day because of dizziness and was put on the DL on Aug. 1. Mesoraco says he wanted to keep playing “but if something would have happened you never know what the ramifications of getting hit again would be.” Dioner Navarro was called up from Triple-A Louisville as a replacement and optioned back Thursday. Mesoraco was batting .221 with five homers and 14 RBIs.
the injured player was doing. Slagle started all 31 games in '11-12, averaging 12.2 points and 3.9 rebounds per game to rank third on the team in scoring and fourth in rebounding. She also averaged a team-high 2.5 assists along with 1.5 steals per outing. In MAC games only, she scored 13.4 points per game to rank second on the team, and she led the Falcons with 3.1 assists. Slagle scored a careerhigh 23 points in her final collegiate game, vs. VCU in the WNIT. She earned MAC Player-ofthe-Week honors on two occasions during her final season, and finished her career with totals of 726 points and 167 assists.

Soccer gold to U.S. women WEMBLEY, England (AP) — Abby Wambach didn’t put on her “Greatness Has Been Found” Tshirt right away. She instead strayed from her teammates and knelt alone at midfield ‚Äî and cried into a U.S. flag. Yes, greatness has been found. And payback has been achieved. The Americans are again on top of the women’s soccer world. They won their third straight Olympic gold medal Thursday, beating Japan 2-1 in a rematch of last year’s World Cup final and avenging the most painful loss in their history. Carli Lloyd scored early in both halves, Hope Solo leaped and dived to make saves, and the entire roster found the redemption it had been seeking since that penalty kick shootout loss in Germany last summer. Before 80,203 fans at Wembley Stadium, a record for a women’s soccer game at the Olympics, the teams put on a back-and-forth, don’t-turn-your-head soccer showcase, proving again that these are the two premier teams in the world. Women’s soccer is still in its formative stages in Britain, but the match proved more than worthy for the hallowed grounds of the beautiful game. Back home, America was paying attention — just as it was last year and despite all the other Olympic events. Even President Barack Obama, while visiting the U.S. Olympic Committee’s training center in Colorado Springs, Colo., offered a “special shoutout” to the women’s team for its victory. At the final whistle, Solo found herself enveloped in a group-hug celebration that unleashed a year of bottledup frustration. Many of the players paraded with the flag and put on the

celebratory T-shirts. Wambach, the outspoken co-captain who missed the Beijing Games with a broken leg, was always the player most impassioned about the mission to get the Americans back atop the podium. She spoke of “nightmares” from the Japan defeat, and now they’ve been replaced by tears of happiness. The loudest of cheers erupted when she received her gold medal, and she was the only one to get a hug from American IOC member Angela Ruggiero, who draped medal around the Wambach’s neck. The U.S. team has won four of the five Olympic titles since women’s soccer was introduced at the 1996 Atlanta Games, taking second place at the 2000
in the 63rd minute, and Mana Iwabuchi nearly had the equalizer in the 83rd — stripping the ball from captain Christie Rampone and swooping in on Solo —only to be thwarted when the goalie flung her entire body to the left to push the shot away. Throughout the game, Japan perhaps played just as beautifully as the Americans, using speed and discipline to dominate possession and scoring chances for long stretches. The Japanese were unfortunate not to have a penalty kick awarded in the first half for a clear hand ball by U.S. midfielder Tobin Heath, who stuck out her left arm to stop a free kick inside the area. Japan also had two shots hit the crossbar, one off the left hand of a
Games in Sydney. Settling for silver, the Japanese players huddled together in defeat, with coach Norio Sasaki trying to encourage them. Karina Maruyama was inconsolable. Aya Miyama bowed her head and Asuna Tanaka wiped away tears. But they were all smiles when they reemerged for the medal ceremony, bouncing their way to the podium. Lloyd’s goals came in eighth and 54th minutes, making it four goals in the tournament for the midfielder who lost her long-held starting job weeks before the Olympics. She got back on the field when Shannon Boxx injured her hamstring in the opening game and started every game since. Yuki Ogimi answered
leaping Solo, who was kept constantly busy for the first time this tournament. The closest the U.S. came to doubling the lead in the first 45 minutes came when Azusa Iwashimizu attempted to clear a routine ball played in front of the net — and headed it off the post. Lloyd’s first goal began with a run by Heath down the left side. She fed Alex Morgan, who settled the ball near the goal line, spun and chipped it toward Wambach. Wambach raised her left foot for the shot, but Lloyd charged in and got to it first, her strong running header beating goalkeeper Miho Fukumoto from 6 yards out. Lloyd extended the lead with a 20-yard right-footer just inside the left post.

LONDON (AP) — When the stakes are the biggest, the spotlight most bright, Usain Bolt is as good as gold. Good as there’s ever been. Putting the field far enough behind that he could slow up over the last few strides and put his left index finger to his mouth to tell any critics to shush, Bolt won the 200 meters in 19.32 seconds Thursday night, making him the only man with two Olympic titles in that event. He added the 200 gold to the 100 gold he won Sunday, duplicating the 100-200 double he produced at Beijing.
