BOB DOAK, of Port Jefferson, displays Tuesday some of the tags he has attached to flags he put up in his front yard on Wall Street as a memorial to the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Looking on is Doak’s wife, Barbara Doak. The tags attached to each flag contain a photo of a family member that

is or was a firefighter, in the military or both. Doak is a retired Port Jefferson fire chief. His dad, Sam Doak, was a Quincy firefighter. Bob Doak’s son, R. Wayne Doak, and grandson, Bryan Doak, are both currently Anna firefighters.

Smaller crowds gather on 9/11 BY MEGHAN BARR The Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — There were still the tearful messages to loved ones, clutches of photos and flowers, and moments of silence. But 11 years after Sept. 11, Americans appeared to enter a new, scaled-back chapter of collective mourning

for the worst terror attack in U.S history. Crowds gathered, as always, at the World Trade Center site in New York, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania memorial Tuesday to mourn the nearly 3,000 victims of the 2001 terror attacks, reciting their names and remembering with music, tolling bells and prayer. But they came in fewer numbers, ceremonies

were less elaborate and some cities canceled their remembrances altogether. A year after the milestone 10th anniversary, some said the memorials may have reached an emotional turning point. “It’s human nature, so people move on,” said Wanda Ortiz, of New York City, whose husband, Emilio Ortiz, was killed See MEMORIALS/Page 5A

City OKs loan agreement with Raise the Roof for the Arts BY KATHY LEESE Sidney City Council members knew the five-year financial forecast and increased residential sewer and water rates would be “hot” topics Monday night. What they did not expect was to find themselves scrambling to find another location for their meeting after a fire at Sidney Municipal Building. (See sidebar story this page) Council members managed to get their work done for the evening in spite of the change of venue, including adopting a resolution to allow City Man-

ager Mark Cundiff to enter a Downtown Rehab Loan agreement with Raise the Roof for the Arts for the proposed facade improvements for the Historic Sidney Theatre at 120 W. Poplar St. Council members reviewed needed repairs to the building and watched a slide show with photos of damage to the building. Among needed updates are masonry repairs for the west and north side of the building, roof replacement and repairs on the marquee, painting the cement stucco on the north See COUNCIL/Page 9A

Meeting location changed after fire A smoldering fire in the Sidney Municipal Building Monday afternoon led to that evening’s Sidney City Council meeting being moved to the police department. Sidney Fire Chief Brad Jones said at the meeting that the fire was believed to have been started by a roofer’s torch, which caused a “minor hot spot.” Firefighters located the hotspot and quickly extinguished it with foam. Fans were used to clear the smell from the building overnight. Those working in the building when the fire occurred, shortly before 5 p.m., initially believed the smell was coming from The Bridge restaurant across the street. Ginger Adams, city finance director, described it as smelling like a campfire.

Versa Capital forms Civitas Media Four community news groups merged for growth, best practices PHILADELPHIA, Pa — Versa Capital Management, LLC (Versa), a private equity investment firm, today announced the creation of Civitas Media, LLC (Civitas), a new community news media company. Civitas, Latin for “community” or “citizen,” combines four media entities owned by Versa: Freedom

Central, Heartland Publications, Impressions Media, and Ohio Community Media. The Sidney Daily News is among publications of the I-75 Group of Ohio Community Media. Also in the group are the Tipp City/West Milton Weekly Record Herald, the Troy Daily News and the Piqua Daily Call.

“We have assembled an excellent group of community news publishers over the past 15 months and combining them together under the Civitas umbrella is a logical and value-enhancing result,” stated Versa’s CEO Gregory L. Segall. “Community-based media has remained profitable and largely avoided the level

of financial pressure experienced by large daily metros in recent years. They are the principal source of information and news content as well as the primary advertising vehicles for their communities, whether in print or online, and we see a more stable and resilient future for this sector.” See CIVITAS/Page 9A

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s school board again blocked release of state report cards on Tuesday amid an attendance-tampering investigation, but it cleared certain untainted data to be publicized.

Biden makes good on that promise Wednesday, when he campaigns in Dayton — his third trip to Ohio in the past two weeks. Obama will travel to Columbus and Cincinnati on Monday, his second visit to Ohio this month. The Democrats’ frequent visits underscore Ohio’s role as a crucial battleground in the race for president. No Republican has won the presidency without winning Ohio, and Biden and Obama are doing everything they can to make sure the state’s 18 electoral votes stay in the Democratic column. Both Republicans and Democrats say internal surveys show a tight race in Ohio, with Obama narrowly ahead. Biden’s two-day tour through central and southern Ohio took him through parts of the state where Obama is faring the worst.

Seatbelts save lives

CHILLICOTHE (AP) — He buddied up with bikers, posed for countless pictures at a pizza place and downed an ice cream cone at a Dairy Queen. Joe Biden loves Ohio. The only question now is whether Ohio loves him — and President Barack Obama. The vice president toured the state by car over the weekend in a journey that was part campaign rally, part family road trip. Biden, accompanied by his sister, Valerie, and former Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland, a longtime friend, said rural southern Ohio reminds him of northeastern Pennsylvania, where he grew up in Scranton. “This is kind of like coming home,” he told a crowd in Portsmouth, near the Kentucky state line. “I feel really comfortable here. I’ve been here a lot — and I plan on coming back a lot.”

PIQUA — A Sidney woman and her passenger were reportedly saved by their seatbelts in a crash near Piqua Monday morning. According to the Miami County Sheriff ’s Office, Della Gilmore, 54, of Sidney, overcorrected The 19-member panel and lost control of her voted to release to the SUV in the 10700 block public spreadsheets of district- and buildinglevel performance data for the 2011-12 school year that’s not subject to State Auditor Dave Yost’s probe.

One day truce declared

TODAY IN HISTORY BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today is Wednesday, Sept. 12, the 256th day of 2012. There are 110 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 12, 1942, during World War II, a German U-boat off West Africa torpedoed the RMS Laconia, which was carrying Italian prisoners of war, British soldiers and civilians. The German crew, joined by other U-boats, began rescue operations. (On Sept. 16, the rescue effort came to an abrupt halt when the Germans were attacked by a U.S. Army bomber; some 1,600 people died while more than 1,100 survived. As a result, U-boat commanders were ordered to no longer rescue civilian survivors of submarine attacks.) On this date: ■ In 1814, the Battle of North Point took place in Maryland during the War of 1812 as American forces slowed the advance of British troops on Baltimore. ■ In 1846, Elizabeth Barrett secretly married Robert Browning at St. Marylebone Church in London. ■ In 1910, Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 8, popularly known as the “Symphony of a Thousand,” had its premiere in Munich, Germany, with Mahler conducting. ■ In 1938, Adolf Hitler demanded the right of selfdetermination for the Sudeten (soo-DAYT’-un) Germans in Czechoslovakia. ■ In 1943, German paratroopers took Benito Mussolini from the hotel where he was being held by the Italian government. ■ In 1953, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy married Jacqueline Lee Bouvier in Newport, R.I. ■ In 1960, Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kennedy addressed questions about his Roman Catholic faith, telling a Southern Baptist group, “I do not speak for my church on public matters, and the church does not speak for me.” ■ In 1972, the situation comedy “Maude” premiered on CBS. ■ In 1974, Emperor Haile Selassie was deposed by Ethiopia’s military after ruling for 58 years. ■ In 1977, South African black student leader Steve Biko died while in police custody, triggering an international outcry.

OUT OF THE BLUE

Cockatoo cussing not allowed WARWICK, R.I. (AP) — A Rhode Island woman has been accused by her neighbors of violating an animalnoise ordinance by training her cockatoo to cuss. The Providence Journal reports that Lynne Taylor is accused in Warwick municipal court of training the bird, Willy, to say expletives. The bird allegedly aimed the invectives at the neighbors, who happen to be Taylor's ex-husband and his girlfriend. A municipal judge on Thursday denied Taylor's request to dismiss the case. The neighbors, Kathleen Melker and Craig Fontaine, say they have been subjected to repeated curses from the bird, at one point for 15 minutes at a time. The animal noise ordinance imposes a small fine on any pet owner whose animal creates habitual noise. A judge has issued restraining orders telling both women to have no contact.

EGYPTIAN PROTESTERS climb the walls of the U.S. embassy with Arabic graffiti that reads “any one but you God’s prophet” during a protest in Cairo, Egypt, Tuesday. Egyptian protesters, largely ultra conservative Islamists, went into the courtyard and brought down the flag, replacing it with a black flag with Islamic inscription, in protest of a film deemed offensive of Islam.

Anti-Islam film sparks Libya, Egypt protests CAIRO (AP) — A movie attacking Islam’s prophet Muhammad sparked assaults on U.S. diplomatic missions in Libya and Egypt on Tuesday. A Libyan security official reported an American was shot to death as protesters burned the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, and in Cairo, protesters scaled the walls of the U.S. embassy walls and replaced an American flag with an Islamic banner. It was the first such assaults on U.S. diplomatic facilities in either country, at a time when both Libya and Egypt are struggling to overcome the turmoil following the ouster of their longtime leaders, Moammar Gadhafi and Hosni Mubarak in uprisings last year. The protests in both countries were sparked by outrage over a video being promoted by an extreme anti-Muslim Egyptian Christian campaigner in the United States. In the eastern Libyan city of

Benghazi, a large mob stormed the U.S. Consulate, with gunmen firing their weapons, said Wanis al-Sharef, an Interior Ministry official in Bengazi. A witness said attackers fired automatic weapons and rocketpropelled grenades at the consulate they clashed with Libyans hired to guard the facility. Outnumbered by the crowd, Libyan security forces did little to stop them, al-Sharef said. The crowd overwhelmed the facility and set fire to it, burning most of it and looting the contents, witnesses said. One American was shot to death and a second was wounded in the hand, al-Sharef said. He did not give further details, and there was no immediate U.S. confirmation of the death. Hours before the Benghazi attack, hundreds of mainly ultraconservative Islamist protesters in Egypt marched to the

U.S. Embassy in downtown Cairo, gathering outside its walls and chanting against the movie and the U.S. Most of the embassy staff had left the compound earlier because of warnings of the upcoming demonstration. “Say it, don’t fear: Their ambassador must leave,” the crowd chanted. Dozens of protesters then scaled the embassy walls, and several went into the courtyard and took down the American flag from a pole. They brought it back to the crowd outside, which tried to burn it, but failing that tore it apart. The protesters on the wall then raised on the flagpole a black flag with a Muslim declaration of faith, “There is no god but God and Muhammad is his prophet.” The flag, similar to the banner used by alQaida, is commonly used by ultraconservatives around the region.

MEMORIALS in the trade center’s north tower, leaving behind her and their 5-month-old twin daughters. “My concern now is … how I keep the memory of my husband alive.” It was also a year when politicians largely took a back seat to grieving families; no elected officials spoke at all at New York’s 3-hour ceremony. President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney pulled negative campaign ads and avoided rallies, with the president laying a wreath at the Pentagon ceremony and visiting wounded soldiers at a Maryland hospital. And beyond the victims of the 2001 attacks, attention was paid to the wars that followed in Iraq and Afghanistan. In Middletown, N.J., a bedroom community that lost 37 residents in the attacks, town officials laid a wreath at the entrance to the park in a small, silent ceremony. Last year, 3,700 people attended a remembrance with speeches, music and names read. “This year,” said Deputy Mayor Stephen Massell, “I think less is more.” Some worried that moving on would mean Sept. 11 will fade from memory. “It’s been 11 years already,” said Michael Reneo, whose sister-in-law, Daniela Notaro, was killed at the trade center. “And unfortunately for some, the reality of this day seems to be fading as the years go by. … I hope we never lose focus on what really happened here.” Thousands had attended the ceremony in New York in previous years, including last year’s milestone 10th anniversary. In New York, a crowd of fewer than 200 swelled to about 1,000 by late

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama and challenger Mitt Romney declared a fleeting truce for partisan digs Tuesday as the nation remembered the 9/11 terrorist attacks, but campaign politics crackled through even their somber observances. The campaigns pulled their negative ads and scheduled no rallies. But both candidates stayed in the public eye as the nation marked the 11th anniversary of the jetliner crashes that left nearly 3,000 dead. Obama observed a White House moment of silence, attended a memorial service at the Pentagon, visited Arlington National Cemetery and then met privately with wounded soldiers and their families at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. But former President Bill Clinton carried on with a campaign stop for Obama in Florida, and the Democrat’s camp issued registration appeals under first lady Michelle Obama’s name. In an echo of his usual campaign speech, Obama noted that the war in Iraq is over and troops are on track to leave Afghanistan in 2014. “Al-Qaida’s leadership has been devastated, and Osama bin Laden will never threaten us again,” Obama said at the Pentagon. “Our country is safer and our people are resilient.” Romney, in Reno, Nev., to address a meeting of the National Guard, indirectly but clearly drew distinctions with Obama by spelling out his own national security goals. “I wish I could say the world is less dangerous now,” he said. After declaring that the day was not the proper moment to address differences with the president, Romney took issue with threatened cuts in defense and the handling of disability claims and called for more assertive international leadership.

CHRISTINE BOX, sister of Firefighter Gary Box, remembers her brother with her daughter Nikki Silva, during a ceremony marking the 11th anniversary of the attacks at the National September 11 Memorial at the World Trade Center site in New York, Tuesday. Tuesday morning, as family members laid roses and made paper rubbings of their loved ones’ names etched onto the Sept. 11 memorial. A few hundred attended ceremonies at the Pentagon and in Shanksville, Pa., fewer than in years past. As bagpipes played at the year-old Sept. 11 memorial in New York, families holding balloons, flowers and photos of their loved ones bowed their heads in silence at 8:46 a.m., the moment that the first hijacked jetliner crashed into the trade center’s north tower. Bells tolled to mark the moments that planes crashed into the second tower, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania

field, and the moments that each tower collapsed. President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama laid a white floral wreath at the Pentagon, above a concrete slab that said “Sept. 11, 2001 — 937 am.” Obama later recalled the horror of the attacks, declaring, “Our country is safer and our people are resilient.” Vice President Joe Biden remembered the 40 victims of the plane that crashed in a field south of Pittsburgh, saying he understood 11 years haven’t diminished memories. “Today is just as monumental a day for all of you, for each of your families, as any Sept. 11 has ever been,” he said. Wearing white ribbons,

many wearing T-shirts with their loved ones’ pictures, victims’ family in New York read loved ones’ names, and looked up to the sky to talk to their family — even those they hadn’t met. Juan Torres wasn’t old enough to remember his uncle, Luis, “but after all the stories I heard, I knew he was a good man. Although he threw himself from the building, I know God was waiting for him below and caught him in his arms.” Like 2001, this Sept. 11 was on a Tuesday, for the second time since the attacks. The cloudless blue sky and brisk, early fall weather recalled the morning of 2001.

TO THE EDITOR

God is only answer

To the editor: In November 2012, people will be going to the polls to vote for their favorite candidate — Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. We know our nation is on a downslide. We hear about it every day: oil prices, heath care, same-sex marriage, abortion of babies, wars and budget cuts. Mitt Romney is saying it is the fault of the present president, Barack Obama. President Obama is saying it is President Bush’s fault. I say to all my readers there is nothing new in this world; all of this has happened before. In the Book of Genesis, Chapter 3, you will find a full picture of fault-finding and blame to others. ETTERS TO THE EDITOR In Genesis 3:11, God asked Adam, “Has thou eaten of the tree which I commanded thee not to eat?” In verse 12, Adam replied, “The woman thou gave me (fault-finding — excuse), she gave me and I did eat.” In verse 13, God said unto Eve, “What’s this To the editor: I am an 83-year-old mother, grandmother and thou has done?” and the woman said, “Lord it was the serpent” (fault-finding — excuse) and the Lord great-grandmother with deep Christian values.

Get wind turbine facts To the editor: Wind turbines. They’re big. They’re ominous. And they might come to Shelby County. After reading the Inquiring Photographer (See SDN Sept. 8, 2012) I was astounded. I wished they would have interviewed people from the areas where they may be constructed. I also wished I had been interviewed. My response would have been “Absolutely, positively not! Have you seen Paulding County?” My grandparents and cousins reside in Payne, just one of the many small towns that have been affected by wind turbines. A farming community much like Shelby County, Paulding County’s fields have become gravel paths leading to the windmills. Vibrations in the soil, caused by the spinning blades, are killing earthworms, which help to aerate and break up the soil so rainwater can penetrate easier. Worms also loosen the soil so that roots can take better hold. Basically put, we need worms to grow crops. Did you know that the blades of wind turbines are actually delicate enough to fall apart when birds fly into them? Such is the case with at least three turbines in Payne! After examining a broken piece of blade, I was shocked to find that blades are made of hard Styrofoam, with only a thin plastic coating on them. Here are some hard facts about wind turbines and Shelby County: • Wind turbines ruin fields and kill essential worms. • Birds are frequently killed from flying into turbines, since not all of them are lighted at night. • Blades fall apart. • Our beautiful Ohio landscapes are ruined. • Gravel paths take up over almost half of any field. After reading this, whatever your views on wind turbines, I hope you will take some time to really think about the effects of wind turbines in Shelby County.

LOCAL NEWS

Sidney Daily News,Wednesday, September 12, 2012

COUNCIL and west side of the building, repairing, cleaning and painting the fire escape on the west side of the building and a possible application of an exterior insulation finishing system on the west and north walls. The estimated cost for the project is $100,000. Raise the Roof for the Arts board members requested a loan from the Downtown Rehab program for 50 percent of the costs or $50,000. While the program limits the total amount of the grant to $30,000 for each project, council members increase the could amount or waive it for a specific project. The current balance in the Downtown Rehab program fund is $56,411.34, with those funds coming from the state of Ohio. The Downtown Rehab program provides for a 50-50 matching loan. The loan is a five-year forgivable loan with a 0 percent interest rate. It is secured by a mortgage on the property being improved. In a letter to Barbara Dulworth, community services director, Mardie Milligan, president of Raise the Roof for the Arts and also a Sidney City Council member, wrote that if the city did not want to “allocate the full request” for funds, the project would be adapted to the funding approved by council, with the first priority being masonry repairs to the west wall and the north wall. Council member Steve Wagner asked if there were any other requests for funding from the Downtown Rehab program and was told by Dulworth that there were a couple of business own-

ers who had asked about funding, but there were no “active applications” at this time. “I can’t think of any other endeavor more important than this,” said Wagner. A representative of Freytag and Associates told council members that the repairs would “bring it (theater) back to it’s original condition.” Mayor Mike Barhorst expressed concern about how the theater will look once it is completed, asking if there would be “any unpleasant surprises?” He said council had previously provided financial assistance to a couple of other projects and he noted the outcome was not good. I known,” “Had Barhorst said, that the facade on one of the previous buildings would be purple, he would not have supported it. He said he wanted to be sure the theater would not be “flourescent” when it was restored. He was assured that would not be the case. Council members discussed whether to award the full $50,000 loan initially or whether to award $30,000 initially and then the remaining $20,000 at a later date. Dulworth said the city law director is working on amending the amount to $50,000, with council awarding $30,000 initially and then $20,000. The council awarded $30,000 and will look at the additional amount at a future council meeting. Council members took action to adopt a resolution allowing the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) to complete a guardrail and end

From Page 1 terminal upgrades along Ohio 47 from Stolle Avenue to Fifth Avenue in Sidney. The guardrail project would be put out for bid in 2013. The city of Sidney will not be responsible to pay for the project since ODOT will provide federal and state funding for the improvement. If the city wants to add additional features, they would be required to pay for those if ODOT did not believe they were necessary. No right of way or utility accomodations are expected with this project. Council members approved a resolution accepting the amounts and rates as determined by the Budget Commission and authorizing the necessary tax levies and certifying them to the Shelby County Commissioner. The resolution accepts the County Budget Commission’s estimate of the city’s share of the property tax levy inside the 10 mill limitation. The Ohio Revised Code (ORC) requires that City Council accept the amounts annually as estimated revenue for the next year’s budget. For budget year 2013, operating mills are estimated at 3.20, which is an operating amount of $1,131,895. For budget year 2012, the operating mills are 3.20, with an operating amount of $1,206,897. In 2011, the operating mills were 3.20 an operating with amount of $1,129,121. Council members adopted a resolution approving amendments to the Sidney financial policy. Among the changes, the council approved changing the minimum fund balance require-

THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY WEXNER MEDICAL CENTER

ment for the Solid Waste Fund from 20 to 10 percent. A lower minimum fund balance is reportedly warranted and supported by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). Projected minimum fund balances for 2013 - 2017 are at approximately 10 percent from approximately $138,000 to $156,000. The resolution allows the ability to issue conduit debt. Conduit debt is debt issued by a government entity to provide capital financing for a third party. The resolution revises how a Separation Payment Fund is funded. Beginning in 2010, estimated separation payout for city employees was changed from only including employees with greater than 15 years of public employment to including employees with more than 25 years of service or who are over age 60. There are currently 19 employees in that category, which allows for enough resources to be accumulated for payout of vacation and sick leave to employees when they retire. During the meeting, council members saw a presentation on the five - year financial forecast for the city and discussed the current and future financial challenges facing the city, including being forced to pass on sewer and water rate increases to local residents, which will see residents facing significant increases over the next five years. A follow-up story onthe rate increases and the five- year forecast will be published in Thursday’s Sidney Daily News.

BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN pspeelman@sdnccg.com The popularity of a downtown Sidney, usedand colfurniture lectibles store has prompted its owners to move it to larger quarters. 2nd Hand Thoughts has moved to 115 S. Ohio Ave., which used to house CR Frame Gallery. The frame shop will open a new showroom at 1406 N. Fourth Ave. later this week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough space to show all the stock we had,â&#x20AC;? said Kevin Frazier-Jones, coowner with Mark Frazier-Jones of 2nd Hand Thoughts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The amount of business, with people coming in for antiques and collectibles,â&#x20AC;? required the expansion of operations. The move â&#x20AC;&#x153;gave us a whole lot more square footage and a back door for loading things in and out,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Word of the Week g

’day mates! And welcome to the Land Down Under. (That’s Australia to you yanks.) Australia is the only continent that’s also a country. It’s the smallest continent but the sixth largest country in the world. It’s called the Land Down Under because it lies entirely in the Southern Hemisphere. That means that when it’s summer here in North America, it’s winter in Australia. Its hottest month is January! Millions of years ago all of the continents belonged to one great landmass, but Australia is thought to have been the first

continent to separate from that landmass – about 200 million years ago – so its plants and animals developed differently from any other place in the world. You’ve probably seen pictures of kangaroos and koalas (Careful! Don’t call them “koala bears” because they’re really not bears at all!), but Australia is home to hundreds of other animals that don’t live anywhere else. Because of its location, the climate in Australia is very warm. Most of its population lives in cities along the southern coasts, where the weather is cooler. The interior of Australia, called the “outback,” is mostly desert, and very few people live there. People

who do live in the outback, mostly sheep and cattle farmers, may live 100 miles or more from their nearest neighbors. Outback children “go to school” by talking to teachers over two-way radios. Native Australians, now called Aborigines, have lived on the continent for at least 40,000 years. But today the great majority of people in Australia are descendants of the Irish and English immigrants who began settling there when Australia became a British prison colony in 1788. English is the official language.

• Since World War II, 4.75 million people from other countries have moved to Australia. Because there have been so many immigrants, 20 percent of people living in Australia today were born in other countries.

Fun Facts about Australia • Did you know the platypus is only indigenous to Australia? • Australia was the largest heard of wild camels wandering the deserts of Australia. Around 200,000 camels make their home there. Incidentally, about 20% of Australia is desert. • The following animals were founded in Australia: the emu, the kangaroo, the kookaburra, and the koala. • Bob Hawke, a prime minister of Australia, became inserted into the Guinness Book of Records by drinking 2.5 pints of beer in just 11 seconds in 1954. • If you happen to be near The Great Barrier Reef and need to mail a letter or a postcard, you can. There is a mailbox located on the reef and uses the only stamp licensed by The Great Barrier Reef. • Australia uses money deemed the AUD, or the Australian dollar. Coins are 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent silver pieces and there are also 1 and 2 dollar gold coins. The coins are not made from silver and gold, they are just that color. Pictured on the coins are Australian animals like the kangaroo and echidna anteater. The money notes (equivalent to our paper money) are actually made from a plastic polymer to make counterfeiting nearly impossible. • Channel 9 was Australia's first TV station, which started broadcasting in Sydney in 1956. The first radio station was started in 1912.

for ulcerative colitis are sulfasalazine, Pentasa and Asacol. If they don’t calm the inflamed colon, prednisone is turned to. Cyclosporine is given intravenously when the illness is unresponsive. Remicade (infliximab) is a newer medicine that soothes the colon by neutralizing a body-made substance called TNF (tumor necrosis factor), a material that promotes inflammation and ulcer formation. It’s also used for Crohn’s disease (another inflammation of the digestive tract) and for illnesses like rheumatoid arthritis. Many of these patients, including those with ulcerative colitis, have enjoyed a long remission from their illness. Another newer

medicine for ulcerative colitis is Humira (adalimumab). It has shown promise for control, should Remicade not work. Remicade does have serious side effects. Deaths are truly infrequent, infinitely less than automobile deaths. Lymphoma, a cancer of the lymph nodes, has appeared in some users, but the incidence is small. Have you discussed with your doctor the possibility of colon removal? I know a busy doctor who greatly suffered from ulcerative colitis and had to cut back on his work. He had his colon removed. Now he’s practicing at the same feverish pace at which he practiced as a new doctor.

My dad went to court to see if I could stay with him permanently, and it turned out I could. Now I’m having trouble with my stepmom and her kids. She thinks her two girls are little angels.

OLINA DEAR SAD TEEN: There are many loving and caring stepparents. I’m sorry that you have been shortchanged by the women in your life, all of whom may be less mature than you are at your tender age. You will have to look elsewhere for the mentoring you need from an adult — a teacher, a counselor, a coach, or even the mother of one of your friends. Please don’t be afraid that you will automatically repeat the cycle of abuse that you have suffered. You have learned firsthand how not to treat others. Many adults are able to give their children the parenting they didn’t experience themselves. (My hat is off to all of them.) P.S. Perhaps fathers should not automatically assume that second (or third) wives will be able to accept and love their children from a prior marriage. Blending families should be done with eyes wide open.

September 12, 1912 A freight wreck on the Big Four railroad, two miles west of Houston yesterday, came near preventing a great many of the people of that vicinity from getting to the fair. The wreck occurred just a short time before the eastbound passenger train was due and the large crowds at Houston, Dawson, and Hardin were doomed to disappointment as the train could not get past the wreck. At the suggestion of Big Four Agent Kerr at Houston, the engine of the derailed train was used and one of the coaches of the west-bound passenger train was taken off at Houston and made up into a special train to bring the people to Sidney. The engine and one coach were loaded to their utmost capacity. ——— With a day ideal for a fair, the gate receipts were the greatest ever taken in at a fair for Shelby county on one day and it is estimated that 30,000 people were present on the grounds yesterday. At the Ohio Agricultural Experiment station exhibit alone, 4,200 people registered. This was the largest total for one day since the exhibit started with the fairs early in July. The previous high was at Greenville, where 3,600 registered. ——— “Bill” McLain, the heavyset baggage-man at the Western Ohio station has done some hard job of yelling the past few days advertising the fact that the Western Ohio had cars to carry passengers to the fairgrounds. “Fairground Car” was a familiar sound to those who came within several hundred feet of Bill and his megaphone Thursday and Friday.

75 Years September 12, 1937 Informal opening of the Shelby County Fair was held yesterday afternoon with hundreds of people visiting the grounds and enjoying the concessions which were already set up. Others were busy making arrangements for their own displays. The fair program proper will open tomorrow evening according to Secretary Ben O. Harmon, and will feature Black’s Trained Animal Circus, consisting of trained dogs, ponies, monkeys, bears and other attractions. ——— Robert J. Hahn, manager of the Singer Sewing Machine Co. office and James Clavert, an employee of the company, were injured in an auto accident just east of Port Jefferson early this morning. The car in which they were riding was crowded off the road at the turn in the highway by a passing car that failed to stop. The

car rolled over and landed on its top in the ditch. ——— Four Shelby county young people attended the first Ohio Conference of Rural Youth at the Ohio State University this past week. Those from Shelby county in attendance were Miss Mildred Widney, Miss LaDonna Rauhouse, William Stengle, and Howard Stump.

50 Years September 12, 1962 Grand opening of the new A & P Super Market on Wapakoneta avenue at the Kossuth street intersection will be held next Tuesday, Sept. 18, it was announced today. The new market, which has been under construction since early this spring, will replace the present outlet at 218 East Court street. ——— Dr. Homer Cargill has returned home from a short vacation trip to Nassau. He made the trip by plane with Dan Doll who remained for another week. They flew out of the Cincinnati airport.

25 Years September 12, 1987 FORT LORAMIE – The Fort Loramie School District has a new superintendent for the second time in less than a Norman F. month. Burkhardt, 34, who currently serves as a junior high school principal at Cloverleaf Local Schools in Medina, was hired to fill the post during the Fort Loramie Board of Education meeting Wednesday night. ——— HOUSTON (AP) - The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. has pledged nearly $1 billion to rescue a giant Texas bank, but the agency’s chairman says the secondlargest U.S. bank bailout ever doesn’t reflect favoritism toward big banks. The rescue of the First City Bancorp of Texas is a boon for the institution and customers but not stockholders, officials and analysts said. “I suppose one of the criticisms that we’ll hear is that this is another example of the too-big-to-fail syndrome,” said L. William Seidman, chairman of the FDIC, which gave the rescue preliminary approval Wednesday. “Let me point out that for all practical purposes, in terms of the stockholders and management, the bank has failed. But in terms of all of the depositors, the bank continues.”

Maltinsky started it all Varsity football began in Minster after his arrival 63 years ago The head coach who started football in Minster passed away this week at age 92, some 63 years after that first game. Paul Maltinsky arrived in Minster from West Virginia via Ohio State in 1947. Varsity football followed in 1949, and he never left the community. He coached the gridiron Wildcats through 1961. Three of his 13 seasons saw only a single loss in each. According to "Minster Football: The Early Years," Maltinsky had no assistant coaches in 1949, 1960, and 1961. That same source says that the team had to share ten sets of shoulder pads and six helmets when the first practice was called on August 20, 1949. Coach Maltinsky also became a part of American football history in 1951 when he utilized German exchange student Albert Burger as a soccer-style placekicker. Extensive research leads us to believe that Burger was the first such kicker in the United States at any level. Like many head coaches of his era, Paul ran multiple sports. In 1952 his basketball squad played in the state tourney. Always but especially this week, Wildcat Country is remembering Paul Maltinsky.

Anna wins 100th The Anna football program started playing a full varsity schedule in 2000, and reached a milestone last week with the program’s 100th victory. It came on Saturday when the Rockets routed Fort Recovery in the completion of Friday’s suspended game. Anna has 98 victories since starting varsity football in 2000, and also had two wins over varsity programs in its second year of football, 1999. The Rockets defeated National Trail and Yellow Springs that

Loramie wasn’t scheduled to play the Eagles this season but Lehman was left with a void for the final game of 2012 that still hasn’t been filled. Now the suspension will also include 2013 and both schools are affected. Loramie now needs a game in week four and ditto for Lehman two weeks later. Lehman coach and athletic director Dick Roll said he has found an opponent but a site can’t be agreed upon since each wants and needs a home game in that potential single meeting. As of this moment, the Cavaliers have nine games booked for 2013 and only three are at home. Roll feels certain varsity football will return at Troy Christian in 2014. “We’ve played them this year at younger levels,” he told us last week. “They have both numbers and skill.”

In hot water in Wapakoneta Wapakoneta head coach Doug Frye found himself in hot water following Wapakoneta’s loss to Elida two weeks ago. According to a story in the Wapakoneta Daily News, Frye was reprimanded by Wapakoneta City Schools administrators, apparently for using “unacceptable language” while addressing his team in the locker room. Sources told the paper that his conduct resulted in the team’s offensive coordinator plus six players quitting the team. According to the paper, an audio tape on Frye’s post-game talk after the Elida game was delivered to school personnel the day after the game.

FFA gets national ranking Camping sign-up open at lake

Chapter plans mum sales this week ing in leadership development activities, showing appreciation for school employees, growing and selling flowers in the chapterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greenhouse, having a food stand at local festivals, and helping to make consumers aware of current agricultural industry issues. Every year, chapters are recognized as having earned one-, two-, or three-star ratings on their applications. The three-star rating is the highest level of accomplishment a chapter may achieve. The National FFA Organization, formerly known as the Future Farmers of America, is a youth organization of 40,379 student members â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all preparing for leadership and careers in the science, business and technology of agriculture. The Fort Loramie Agricultural Education program is a satellite of the Upper Valley Career Center in Piqua. As a three-star chapter, Fort Loramie FFA members participate in numerous leadership, team building, career development, and community service projects.

Mum Sale Thursday to Saturday Among the projects

Stump removal planned FORT LORAMIE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Lake Loramie State Park, in cooperation with the Lake Loramie Improvement Association (LLIA), is in the process of removing stumps from the lake. The plan is to spend approximately two weeks on this operation. State park officials ask anyone who knows the location of a stump that is causing problems with boat navigation to mark it and notify Tom Grabow, regional dredge supervisor, at (419) 394 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 3611. Stumps should be marked using a gallon jug secured with a sufficient line (minimum 10 feet) and anchor. The barge requires a minimum of 3 1/2 feet of water depth to be floated into an area. Anyone who knows of a stump location but does not have the equipment to mark it should contact Lynn Smith at (419) 628 - 2024.

FORT LORAMIE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Overflow camping at the beach and back channel for this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lake Loramie State Park Harvest Festival and Campout is open for registration. Campers will be required to pay the nightly registration fee as well as occupy the site with some type of camping equipment.

Salon lists winners FORT LORAMIE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Cutaway Salon, 15 Elm St., has announced the winners of its 30th anniversary gift certificate drawing. The winners were Norma Middendorf, Dale Luebke, Shirley Simon,

An agricultural education program is made up of three integrated parts: classroom instruction, FFA and SAE. All agriculture students have an SAE that allows them to learn by doing through an outside-of class experiential learning project. With help from their agricultural teachers, students develop an SAE project based on their interests in agriculture. This summer four Fort Loramie FFA members took on the task of raising mums for their SAEs. They are Alyssa Campbell, daughter of John and Toni Campbell; Janell Hoying, daughter of Bill and Sue Lindsey Hoying; Pleiman, daughter of Tina and Tony Pleiman; and Amanda Seger, daughter of Ken and Janice Seger. They received the mum starters in midJune and have spent the summer watering and pruning the mums to

FORT LORAMIE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The National FFA Organization recently selected the Fort Loramie FFA Chapter as a Three-Star winner in the National FFA Chapter Award program. The local chapter was selected from a pool of more than 660 candidates nationwide. Chapter members have been invited to attend the 85th national FFA convention in Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 2427, where they will be recognized for the honor. The award program is sponsored by John Deere as a special project of the National FFA Foundation. The National FFA Chapter Award program recognizes FFA chapters for developing and conducting a detailed program of activities. Each activity provides opportunities for members to excel in one of three areas: student, chapter, or community development. The application highlighted several activities in which the Fort Loramie FFA participated. Activities include promoting scholarship among FFA members, encouraging students to enter agriculturally-related fields, providing opportunities for financial literacy, participat-

SNUFFY SMITH

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Thursday, Sept. 13, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a perfect day to make longrange plans for vacations, your children, the entertainment world or the hospitality industry. Even play needs planning. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Serious family discussions about real estate or something having to do with securing your family in the future will take place today. Practical results need practical input. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) In one way, you feel lighthearted, but in another way, you feel rather seriousminded. (Go figure.) Fortunately, there are two of you, so you can take turns. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You will like doing financial planning today or devising a budget. You feel frugal and concerned about finances in your long-term future. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Today the Moon is in your sign, flirting with Jupiter and walking in step with Saturn. You feel optimistic about your future, but you’re not counting your chickens before they’re barbecued. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Behind-the-scenes research will go over well today. You’re in the frame of mind to quietly keep looking for the answers you seek. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Ask for advice from someone older or more experienced today. It’s always good to learn from the mistakes of others (and generally cheaper). SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) People in authority will be impressed by how sensible you are today. They might learn details about your private life, but don’t worry — all is well. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a good day to make long-range plans regarding travel, publishing, the media or anything that has to do with higher education. You’re taking a careful, sensible approach to everything. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You’re in the right frame of mind to clean up loose details of inheritances, insurance matters, taxes and debt. You won’t overlook anything, and you definitely will take a long-range view of things. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Someone close to you has received advice from someone older or more experienced. That’s why this person is prepared to do something to build for the future. You might want to listen. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You can accomplish a lot at work today because you’re in a serious frame of mind. You have focus, and you’re paying attention to detail. In addition, you’re looking down the road in your future and wondering what might happen. YOU BORN TODAY You are devoted. You have focus, concentration and stamina. Your approach to life is nononsense and practical. Your persevering attitude often demands a lot from others. Once you have your mind made up, you stick with it! Your diligence is the key to your success. This year, something you’ve been involved with for nine years will diminish or end in order to make room for something new.

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western 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.

Celebrates 90 Years! Discover Dorothy Love’s History...

Nine ty y ea rs l ater, f aci li ty ke eps memor y of little girl alive BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN pspeelman@sdnccg.com

hen residents of west-central Ohio hear the name, Dorothy Love, they immediately think of the highly respected retirement community just outside Sidney. But long before there was a retirement community, there was another Dorothy Love, a little girl whose father was the minister of Sidney’s First Presbyterian Church. Dorothy was born in 1914 and by the time she was 7, she had made a very special friend at church. Moses Russell was 70 then. He had never married, but he doted on Dorothy. And she delighted in him. “She would run to him at church,” said Margo Russell, of Sidney, the widow of Marion Russell. Marion was the great-great-grandson of Moses’s uncle, Joshua Russell. “Dorothy called Moses ‘Uncle Mosey.’ Friends said it was so cute. When he’d walk in, she’d make a beeline for for him. Moses was a farmer. He had livestock. And she spent a lot of time at the farm with when her parents were at church conferences,” Margo added. The unthinkable happened in 1921. Dorothy was hit by an automobile and killed. “Uncle Mosey was so devastated,” Margo said. “He grieved because ‘his’ little girl had died so tragically.” Dorothy’s father, the Rev. W. Blake Love, had been preaching to his congregation about the Ohio Presbyterian Synod’s hope to establish care for the elderly. Moses and his sisters, Martha and Elizabeth, decided to deed 300 acres of their farms to the synod in memory of Dorothy, to establish a home for the aged and orphans. “Later, it would be confined to aging,” Margo said. “When they signed deeds …, it began an innovative pioneering process, a major breakthrough in retirement approach. The Shelby County facility would serve as inspiration and prototype for today’s 10 other Ohio Presbyterian Retirement Services facilities throughout Ohio. OPRS is the largest and most experienced provider of continuing care for nearly 100,000 Ohio folks.” The original residence for the elderly, named Dorothy Love Presbyterian Home, opened in 1925. There were 144 applications for residency. Moses had died less than two weeks before the groundbreaking, but Elizabeth attended. So did the governor of Ohio. When the home was expanded some 30 years later, the campus was named the Dorothy Love Retirement Community and the original ediface was renovated and renamed Russell Hall in honor

of the family who had made everything possible. “The front porch was so gracious,” Margo remembered. She was on the board of the retirement community when the decision was made to raze Russell Hall in the 1992. “It was a sad day, but it was necessary for the expansions,” she said. “Nobody wanted to see it go, but it had to. We struggled with what to do to retain the Russell name. That’s when we came up with Russell Park.” The greensward graces a section of the retirement campus today. What would Uncle Mosey think of that? “He was a very quiet man, and very modest,” Margo said. “That’s one of the the traits of the Russells; they’re always doing good. Members of the Russell family, scattered everywhere, continue to contribute to their respective communities their greater good, building on a Shelby County, Ohio, base of consummate Presbyterian discipline of faith and dedication. They draw upon the Russell ancestral examples.” Those ancestral Russells probably would be amazed to see what their gift of land 90 years ago has spawned. Who knows what Uncle Mosey would say if he could look upon the bustling facility now, with its suites, apartments, special-care units, health services, attractive dining rooms, imposing entryway, lovely chapel, active community center, private homes, golf course, ponds, blossoming gardens, walking paths, classes, performances and special events? He would have to be pleased that 21st-century senior citizens have a such a vibrant place to live. And he also would have to be pleased that the name of his favorite little girl is mentioned many times daily by hundreds of people. Margo agrees: “It was his friendship with Dorothy Love that started it all.”

Tom’s parents and Polly’s parents had all lived here before them. Cecil and Ethel Watkins had built a house on campus and lived there for almost 20 years. Reuben and Charlotte Aschenbach had moved into an independent living apartment and were Dorothy Love residents for almost 12 years. “All four went through all the stages of living at Dorothy Love,” said Polly. “When we thought about moving out here, our 8-year-old grandson was very against our doing it. He was remembering his great-grandparents in nursing care and he thought that’s where we would be, too. But when we told him about the various stages of care here, he said, ‘You know, that’s a pretty good deal!’” Polly and Tom did not assist their parents in making the decision to become Dorothy Love residents. “The four of them knew that’s what they should do,” Polly noted. That made the choice especially easy for the younger generation to make. The couple said that they knew their parents had been very well taken care of and they were eager to experience the same level of care for themselves. They made the move when they were younger than many others who join the community. “We were young enough to enjoy all the opportunities out here,” Polly said. “Some people wait too long.” Since their arrival, Tom said, he has gained a better appreciation of the intangible benefits of residency than he had realized from simply visiting his parents. “I don’t think you can fully understand until you do live here,” he said. The intangibles include “how

important having a staff chaplain is, the Christian atmosphere,” he added. “And every day, the administration has a meeting in the lobby and they start it by repeating the mission of Dorothy Love.” There are concert and lecture series and classes, as well. “Those are some of the intangibles that you’re not aware of if you just come out for a visit or two,” Tom said. Polly noted that the staff who clean their house are the same people who cleaned their parents’ houses. “So that tells you how loyal the employees are,” she said. In some ways, Polly and Tom are different from their parents, Polly Watkins who were not able to participate fully in the Dorothy Love resident activities available on campus. Cecil, Tom noted, put name plates on all the trees. But the younger couple are much more involved: Tom belongs to a reading club and is treasurer of the volunteer group that operates a gift shop and a second-time-around shop. He is a past board member of the residents’ association. Polly serves on the buying committee for the gift shop and several other committees, sings in the choir, and is secretary of the executive committee of the residents’ association. “I think there are more activities now (than when our parents were here),” she said. She cited a fitness center that is always busy, a library and gift shop that are larger, and a shuffleboard team that travels to compete at other OPRS facilities. “You don’t get bored out here,” they laughed. The pair are also active in civic organizations off campus, at church and the local senior center. Polly volunteers at the hospital and Tom is a trustee of the Barnes Trust, an educational loan program, and he makes breakfast every week as a volunteer at the Alpha Center. They play bridge with several groups often. “And we have family in Sidney, so we’re still going to lots of concerts and soccer games of the grand-

“We were young enough to enjoy all the opportunities out here.”
