WASHINGTON (AP) — In what looked like a scene from a Hollywood action movie, an elite team of professionals rappelled down the Washington Monument on Wednesday — not to carry out a covert mission but to inspect the damage done to the 555-foot marble obelisk by last month’s earthquake. As tourists squinted at the tiny figures, two men and two women climbed from a hatch and observation windows at the top of the monument and slowly began lowering themselves with ropes and hardown its nesses pyramid-shaped cap, where a large, inch-wide crack was located and where they expected to find the most damage. From the ground, their movements appeared method-
ical and deliberate, but it was still enough to make family members and gawkers nervous. “It’s kind of freaky. I’m terrified of heights. I’ll bet everything looks all swirly up there,” said Brandon Guy, 14, of Windsor, Calif. Engineers said that the 1884 landmark is structurally sound but that they need to catalog every defect so they can determine how long it will take to repair it and reopen it to the public. To carry that out, they called in a “difficult access team” of specialists certified in both architectural engineering and climbing. The team was supervised by a park ranger with extensive mountaineering experience in the Denali National Park in See CLIMBING/Page 5A

Sidney Police Chief Kevin Gessler presented Life Saving awards to four officers, Andy Shappie, Aaron Wesbecher, Matt Dembski and Greg Cruse, before Monday night’s Sidney City Council meeting. The officers were
honored for a Sept. 7 incident in which Joseph A. Wilson, 25, was rescued from a structure fire at 939 Buckeye Ave. Gessler said the officers were originally dispatched to 941 Buckeye Ave before Shappie determined the fire was actually at 939 Buck-
eye. Forced entry was made to the rear of the residence where heavy smoke was encountered. “Wesbecher heard someone attempting to get out the front door which prompted Cruse to force open the front door,” Gessler said. “Col-
lectively, the officers discovered Wilson and removed him from the structure. “All four officers were working under the leadership of Sgt. David Godwin who recommended them for the department’s award,” Gessler told council.

COLUMBUS (AP) — Republican-drawn boundaries for Ohio’s legislative districts won the approval of a board of top-ranking state officials charged with redrawing the lines, likely bolstering the GOP’s grip on the General Assembly for the next decade. The Ohio Apportionment Board alters the legislative district boundaries every 10 years to reflect population shifts after each census. They approved the GOP-proposed districts in a 4-1 vote on Wednesday after accepting several changes requested by incumbent lawmakers. The maps pit three House Democrats against Republicans, and several other De-
mocrats could potentially compete with one another in merged Democratic districts. The slight revisions would more closely align the districts of Republican state Reps. Rex Damschroder of Fremont and Jeff McClain of Upper Sandusky to their existing boundaries in Seneca and Crawford counties in northern Ohio. The Senate map reduces the number of districts that have a majority population of African Americans from two to one. Unlike the newly drawn U.S. congressional lines that quickly passed the Ohio Legislature last week, the state legislative maps do not go to the General Assembly for a vote.
Republicans hold a majority of seats on the Apportionment Board — as they do in both the Ohio House and Senate. The board’s members consist of four Republicans — Gov. John Kasich, Senate President Tom Niehaus, Auditor Dave Yost and Secretary of State Jon Husted — and one Democrat, House Minority Leader Armond Budish. Budish, who voted against the maps, contends the districts are unfair and unconstitutional. He offered to substitute the Republican-drawn maps for those proposed by his Democratic colleagues, though his motion failed. He said Democrats would consider legal challenges to the maps.
Budish said the boundaries were created by the Republican majority with little chance of input from Democrats or the public. “I know we’re in a period of hyper-partisanship. Compromise and cooperation seem to be lost arts,” Budish said. “But these maps created in a totally partisan manner will only make things worse.” Republicans hold a 59-40 edge in the Ohio House and a 23-10 advantage in the state Senate. Husted, who is the state’s top elections official, voted for the maps because he said the lines followed federal and state laws. Still, he agreed that the process gives the ruling party an edge.

recalled beef. “We encourage our customers to check their freezers and refrigerators,” Dailey said. Kroger loyalty card holders who bought the beef will be notified by email or telephone, and their cashier receipts will automatically print out recall information. The Kroger divisions are: Cincinnati-Dayton, which includes Kroger stores in northern Kentucky; Delta, which includes Memphis and Tennessee, western Arkansas, Mississippi, and stores in Murray and Paducah, Ky., and Poplar Bluff, Mo.; and Central, with stores in Illinois and Indiana that include some local banners such as Food 4 Less in Chicago. The Butcher’s Beef brand meat was shipped to Food Lion stores in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Virginia and West Virginia and to Bottom Dollar Food stores in North Carolina, the company said in a news release. Food Lion encouraged its customers to check their freezers for the product, with UPC code (725439922241) and return it to the store for a full refund. The products being recalled include 5-pound packages of Kroger-brand ground beef packed in 40pound cases, with a product code of D-0211 QW, which was distributed in Tennessee and Indiana; 3-pound packages of Butcher’s Brand beef packed in 36-pound cases with the code D-0211 LWIF, which was distributed in North and South Carolina; and 3-pound packages of generic labeled beef packed in 36pound cases with a product code D-0211 LWI, which was distributed in Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin. The beef, all 73/27 lean to fat ratio, had a “best before” date of Sept. 12 and the number 245D inked on the packages.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Tyson Fresh Meats Inc. is recalling about 131,300 pounds of ground beef because a family in Ohio fell ill after eating meat produced by the company that was contaminated with E. coli, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported Wednesday. The recall involves beef sold as Kroger brands at Kroger Co. supermarkets; Butcher’s Beef at Food Lion supermarkets; and generic beef sold to SAV-A-LOT, Spectrum Foods, Supervalu and the Defense Commissary Agency, company spokesman Gary Mickelson told The Associated Press. Tyson produced the affected meat at its plant in Emporia, Kan., on Aug. 23, the USDA said in a news release. Four children became ill after eating the meat with their family in Butler County, Ohio, in the second week of September, said Butler County Health Department director Pat Burg. A 9-yearold child was hospitalized for about 10 days with severe diarrhea, said Burg, who declined to release the family’s name. Ground beef from the family’s home tested positive for the bacteria. No other cases have been reported in the southwest Ohio county, Burg said. The Ohio Department of Health confirmed that two Butler County siblings received medical treatment after becoming sick from E.coli, while other two children reported to be ill didn’t get medical treatment, spokeswoman Tessie Pollock said. The family told health officials that they bought the beef at a Kroger supermarket. Cincinnati-based Kroger spokesman Keith Dailey said the ground beef in question would have been taken off store shelves on Sept. 12, because of when it was produced. He said Kroger tracked beef to three geographic divisions where it was distributed and will have in-store signs notifying customers of the recall and details of the
MINSTER — Jobs were the big topic for Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor during an after hours event held by the Southwestern Auglaize County Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday. Taylor spoke about the Common Sense Initiative and how it is impacting businesses across the state. “We are really pleased with CSI,” said Taylor. “And I know everyone thinks about the TV show, but in Ohio CSI is investigating job killing rules and regulations, those things that stand in the way of small business owners when they are trying to create a job or expand right here in Ohio. CSI is just one part of how Taylor says the state is working to create more jobs and strengthen the economy in Ohio. “Everything that we’re doing whether it’s balancing the budget, closing the budget hole, the $8 million budget hole, without raising taxes, and in fact eliminating the death tax, regulatory reform getting rid of those job killing regulations, everything that we’re doing is about creating job opportunities in Ohio,” said Taylor. Taylor also spoke about Senate Bill 5 and how the bill will help to re balance the scale to create an environment where public employees will be responsible for a higher percentage of their health care and pension just like private sector employees. “The budget was reform in nature. How can we transform the way government operates to make it easier to do business here, to cut the cost of government, and help government be more efficient,” said Taylor. “Senate Bill 5 is very consistent with that theme. What it really does is we want to give more tools to our local governments, to our school district to help them better manage their costs. Instead of being forced into a position where they have to lay off local police and fire because they have no other way to better
program is set to begin Saturday and Taylor believes it will end on May 1, 2013. “If you are a company that hasn’t be assessed a past use tax liability that’s due in owing the state, this is a good opportunity for you to put all of that behind you,” said Taylor. “Basically the amnesty program says that if you come forward willingly and are willing to take use tax that you owe the state, we will forgo all interest and penalties and we’re only going to collect use tax from Jan. 1, 2009, forward.” Scott Frey, executive director for Southwestern Auglaize County Chamber of Commerce, also stated at the end of the meeting that there will be a meeting on Oct. 6 about this program.

NATION/WORLD BRIEFLY
Knox has changed PERUGIA, Italy (AP) — Two years ago, as she waited to know whether she’d be found guilty of murdering her British roommate, Amanda Knox was so confident she thought she’d be flying home to Seattle within hours. Still behind bars, the American is a changed woman, family and friends say — more mature, more wary of people around her, increasingly anxious as an appeals court verdict approaches. The transformation they describe is seen on the outside. Gone are the Beatles t-shirt, the cocky demeanor, the irreverent smile. Now 24, Knox is conservatively dressed, thinner, clearly worn out — although detractors say she’s merely putting on an act.
Man’s mental health improving TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — The man accused of wounding Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in a deadly shooting rampage has improved to where he understands that he killed people and feels remorse about it, and will be competent to stand trial within eight months, a psychologist testified Wednesday in federal court. Jared Lee Loughner is still delusional but has made strides during the past four months at a Springfield, Mo., prison facility, Dr. Christina Pietz said. When he first arrived at the facility, Loughner was convinced Giffords was dead, even though he was shown a video of the shooting.
Testimony continues LOS ANGELES (AP) — The last days of Michael Jackson’s life were filled with the adulation of fans, a rehearsal performance onlookers described as amazing and intense preparations for his big comeback in London. In good spirits, Jackson chatted with well-wishers outside his home and at the Staples Center where he practiced songs and dance routines before he returned home. Then, things took a tragic turn, according to Michael Amir Williams, who testified Wednesday in the trial of the doctor charged with involuntary manslaughter in the superstar’s death.

Couple gets stinky roommates PALM BAY, Fla. (AP) — A Florida couple returned from a monthlong vacation to find they had some new — and stinky — roommates. Stephanie and Bill Palieri told the Florida Today newspaper that about 10 skunks squeezed into their home through a window that was left open. The couple had been visiting relatives to celebrate their 58th wedding anniversary. The skunks tunneled through walls, gnawing on kitchen cabinets and oven wires inside their Palm Bay home. Stephanie Palieri says five skunks walked through the kitchen recently while she was enjoying her coffee.

Violence up 39% in Afghanistan KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The monthly average of armed clashes, roadside bombings and other violence in Afghanistan is running 39 percent ahead of last year’s figure, U.N. reported Wednesday, with more complex suicide operations involving multiple bombers and gunmen. The statistics show that the intensity of the nearly decade-old war is growing, not abating, as the U.S. and other nations start to withdraw some forces with an eye toward pulling all combat troops out by the end of 2014. The Taliban’s resilience raises questions about whether the Afghan government and its Western allies have a solid grip on security — and whether the Afghan forces can ever secure the na-
tion by themselves. NATO says it has made progress in taming the Taliban insurgency by routing its strongholds in the south. But the Taliban have hit back with several high-profile attacks in the capital and assassinations of government officials and senior Afghan leaders. In its quarterly report on Afghanistan, the U.N. said that as of the end of August, the average monthly number of incidents stood at 2,108, up 39 percent over the same period a year earlier. It did not provide comparable data. The figures include insurgent attacks as well as assaults by NATO and Afghan forces on Taliban figures and positions. “Armed clashes and improvised explosive devices continued to constitute the majority of incidents,” U.N. Secretary-
General Ban Ki-moon said in his report. “The south and southeast of the country, particularly around the city of Kandahar, continued to be the focus of military activity and accounted for approximately two-thirds of the total security incidents.” The U.S.-led coalition said it disputes the U.N. figures and planned to hold a news conference Thursday to release its own statistics related to overall violence trends in Afghanistan. Kandahar, the birthplace of the Taliban insurgency, was where most of the 33,000 additional U.S. troops that President Barack Obama sent to Afghanistan were deployed. The extra U.S. and other NATO forces succeeded in routing insurgents from their stronghold and now are trying
to hold those areas in the south. The militants, however, have opened new fronts in the north and west and have stepped up attacks in the east, including ones inside the heavily secured capital, Kabul. According to the U.N. report, while the number of suicide attacks remained steady, insurgents conducted more suicide operations involving multiple bombers and gunmen. It said that on average, three complex attacks have been carried out each month from January to August — a 50 percent increase compared with the same period last year. “Complex suicide attacks made up a greater proportion of the total number of suicide attacks,” the report said.
With teen’s AP: U.S. fugitive hid suicide comes spotlight, caution in Portugal hamlet ALMOCAGEME, Portugal (AP) — He lived the sweet life for decades. But nobody knew he was on the run. After breaking out of a New Jersey prison 41 years ago, George Wright settled in a picturesque seaside town in Portugal. He married a local woman, raised two children and grew old in a pretty house on a cobbled street near a stunning beach. Locals knew him as Jorge Santos, a friendly man from Africa who did odd jobs and spoke fluent Portuguese. He kept his true identity secret: convicted murderer, prison escapee and accused hijacker. Wright’s decades-long flight from justice ended when the 68-year-old American was taken into custody by local police Monday at the request of the U.S. government. On Tuesday, he appeared before a judge in Lisbon, the capital, for an initial extradition hearing. Residents of this charming coastal town were coming to terms Wednesday with the fact that a man they knew and liked had been living a lie. “I never imagined George was in trouble,” gas station attendant Ricardo Salvador said. Most assumed Wright was African, not American. His Portuguese identity card said he was born in Guinea-Bissau, a former Portuguese colony in West Africa. A photocopy, shown to The Associated Press, bore the name Jose Luis Jorge dos Santos, an alias U.S. officials said Wright used. It was issued in 1993 and expired in 2004. Salvador and other residents said Wright had business cards that gave his first name as Jorge or George, and many called him by the latter.

ANN PATTERSON holds a photo of her father, Walter Patterson, at her home in Howell, N.J. on Wednesday. Patterson was killed in a robbery of his New Jersey gasoline station in 1962. His killer, George Wright, escaped in 1970 from prison in Leesburg, N.J., where he was serving a sentence of 15-to-30 years in the murder of Patterson. In 1972, after becoming involved with the Black Liberation Army, he helped hijack an airliner to Algeria. The last remaining fugitive in that sensational crime, he was captured Monday in Almocageme, Portugual. “He was a very nice guy,” Salvador said as he took a break from pumping gas on a sunny autumn day in Almocageme, 28 miles (45 kilometers) west of Lisbon. “He used to wave as he drove past and I’d shout out, ‘Hey, George!’” In his younger years, Wright was a darker character. He was convicted of the 1962 murder of gas station owner Walter Patterson, a decorated World War II veteran
CLIMBING Alaska, home to North America’s highest peak. During the daredevil inspection, which is expected to last several days, the intrepid climbers will work their way up and down the sides of the entire monument, snap photos with a digital camera and tap the stones with a soft mallet, listening for indications of damage. They have masonry tools to remove loose stone or mortar. Each is also carrying a twoway radio and an iPad loaded with data from the 1999 restoration of the monument. Deb Blanchard drove to Washington from her home in Palmyra, Pa., to watch her brother, Erik Sohn, rappel down the face of the tallest structure in Washington and one of the most recognizable landmarks in the world. “This doesn’t make me feel very good right now. I’ve got to be honest about that. Wow!” she said. But she said her
shot during a robbery at his business in Wall, New Jersey. Eight years into his 15- to 30-year prison term, Wright and three other men escaped from the Bayside State Prison in Leesburg, New Jersey, on Aug. 19, 1970. While on the run, the FBI said Wright joined an underground militant group, the Black Liberation Army, and lived in a communal family with several of its members in Detroit.
From Page 1 brother wasn’t nervous: “He’s a very responsible, meticulous, careful kind of person. This fits his personality. It’s such a fantastic opportunity for him.” Sohn’s wife, Schalyn, came from the couple’s home in Chantilly, Va., bringing their infant daughter and 3-year-old son, Schaffer, who dressed for the occasion. “I explained that Daddy is being like Spiderman, climbing on the building today. So he is wearing his superhero Spiderman shirt,” she said. Sohn and the other team members are part of a relatively small group that can do such precise work at dizzying heights. Still, more than one described it as a once-in-alifetime experience. The team also includes 32year-old Emma Cardini of Melrose, Mass., who has rappelled down columns on Panama’s Bridge of the Americas, dangled from rope inside the Old South Church in
Boston and inspected the Gothic spires at the top of Chicago’s Tribune Tower. An engineer with degrees from Tufts University, she keeps a hard hat in the back of her car and has “zero fear of heights,” said her husband, A.J. Cardini, himself an engineer. The assignment came at a tricky time for the couple, who just moved into a new home and are trying to sell their condo. Their real estate agent texted her yesterday: “hi! You have an offer. Can u talk?” Her response: “not really… I’m on the top of the Washington Monument getting ready to rappel, and service is not great.” National Park Service officials hope to announce a timetable by mid-October for repairing and reopening the monument. The inspection is being done by the engineering firm Wiss, Janey, Elstner Associates Inc. of Northbrook, Ill.
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Taunted since grade school for hanging out with girls, 14-yearold Jamey Rodemeyer told his parents things were finally getting better since high school started. Meanwhile, on a blog his parents didn’t know about, he posted increasingly desperate notes ruminating on suicide, bullying, homophobia and pop singer Lady Gaga. A few days later, he hanged himself outside his home in suburban Buffalo, quickly gaining a fame like that described in one of his idol’s songs. Activists, journalists and Gaga herself seized on the suicide, decrying the loss of another promising life to bullying. His cherubic school picture pervaded the Internet and television, as well as a video he had posted earlier about his experience. But what the incomplete and conflicting portrait of Rodemeyer’s life did not convey were the complexities of the teenage mind and the reality that bullying is rarely the sole factor at work. It also highlighted the risk of creating an icon at the price of glamorizing suicide as an option for other bullied or attention-seeking teens. “If we portray it as something that is admirable and very sympathetic, vulnerable youth may hear that as, ‘Look at the attention this case is getting and everyone is feeling sorry and praising this individual,’ and it can form a narrative that can be compelling,” said Ann Haas, senior project specialist at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Like in other prominent teenage deaths linked to bullying or intimidation — notably Phoebe Prince, an Irish immigrant in Massachusetts taunted by classmates after she dated a popular boy, and Tyler Clementi, a Rutgers University freshman whose roommate is accused of spying on his same-sex encounter via webcam — police are investigating to see whether any bullying constituted a crime. Tracy Rodemeyer said her son was hurt deeply by words from the time he was very young. Boys started picking on him in elementary school, she said. “People would say, ‘Oh my god, you’re such a girl. What are you, gay? That kind of stuff,” she told The Associated Press in an interview last week. By middle school, the bullying was overwhelming, she said. His friends would report the abuse, and school officials would pull the boy and the alleged bullies into the office. Rodemeyer also regularly saw a school social worker, who would call his mother after meetings. “People would be like ‘faggot, fag,’ and they’d taunt me in the hallways and I felt like I could never escape it,” he said in a YouTube video posted in May as part of columnist Dan Savage’s “It Gets Better” project, which seeks to give voices and hope to bullied gay and lesbian teenagers.

Logan County organization benefits Wilson Hospice LAKEVIEW — The Turkeyfoot Benefit Crew of Lakeview recently made a donation in the amount of $7,500 to benefit hospice patients within Logan County who are served by Wilson Hospice. The charitable organization has been in existence for nine years and comprises volunteer members. The contribution to Wilson Hospice aided in the purchase of a CoaguChex meter, eight pulse oximeters and an open text fax appliance. Pulse oximeters offer the least invasive method for monitoring oxygen levels in the bloodstream. By using an electronic sensor placed on the patient’s finger, earlobe or toe, medical professionals can check the oxygen level in a patient’s blood cells. Another measurement in the scope of care for Hospice patients is how long it takes the blood to coagulate. A CoaguChex meter is used to provide this data. Wilson Hospice provides care and supportive services where ever a patient calls home. As a result, admission data is

Beverly Lehman, Wilson Hospice RN, stated, “The fax can then be opened like an email saving time during admission process and, as a result, staff can address a patient’s needs more quickly. We are so grateful to the Turkeyfoot Benefit Crew for their donation enabling us to purchase the fax press.” “We first received our first donation from the Turkeyfoot Benefit Crew in 2008 and are honored that they continue to provide generous gifts to Hospice. To date this dedicated and hardworking group has donated a total of $31,800 to Wilson Hospice Care,” said Bonnie Faulkner, executive director of the Wilson Memorial Hospital Foundation. “The equipment we were able to purchase with these funds will make a significant difference in the care we are able to provide to our

Koppin advances to national FFA finalist ANNA — The Anna FFA has won several awards at the state and national levels. Jake Watercutter and Lindsey Koppin placed Koppin first at the state convention in their Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) proficiency areas, which advanced them on to nationals. To qualify in a proficiency award, the participant must fill out an extensive application describing their SAE and go through an interview process. Watercutter received
a silver rating at the national level in the wildlife management proficiency area. As part of his SAE, he not only works on the family dairy farm but he also enjoys managing wildlife by hunting, trapping and fishing. He monitors the wildlife population by setting up trail cameras to determine the amount and type of wildlife in an area and puts out mineral and salt blocks and food plots to aid in wildlife nutrition. Koppin is a national finalist in the FFA entrepreneurship/placement category, placing her in the top four in the nation in her proficiency area of nursery operations. She works at Kah Nursery and has done so
her entire high school career. She has logged countless hours at the nursery watering plants, fertilizing, pruning, deadheading and learning about the many products the nursery has to sell. Koppin’s responsibility has increased since she was hired and she is now responsible for overseeing other employees. Recently she received her certification as an Ohio Certified Nursery Technician. Koppin will receive a plaque on stage at the national convention in October, plus $500. Depending on how she places, she may receive another $500. She also has the opportunity to receive an all-expense-paid trip to Costa Rica.

YOUR
HOROSCOPE
BY FRANCIS DRAKE What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Friday, Sept. 30, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is not an ideal day to make important decisions about taxes, debt, inheritances and shared property. Some kind of confusion is present. (Not good.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s easy to be disappointed with partners and close friends today. You might feel let down. The question to ask is whether you make your expectations known? (Unexpressed expectations always lead to disappointment.) GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Someone might need your help at work today. The challenge will be for you to determine if this is a sincere request or not. (Don’t be a sucker.) CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Romantic relationships are in the toilet today. People are easily disappointed in each other, but perhaps because their expectations were unrealistic? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Discussions about family businesses or even casual chats with family members are confusing today. Keep this in mind. Be aware that you are feeling aggressive now because Mars is in your sign. (Carumba!) VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Don’t be surprised if you spend a lot of time daydreaming or wool-gathering today. Just call it a mental health day. We all need these now and then. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be careful with all financial matters today because deception is possible. This could be accidental or on purpose. Keep your eyes open! (Don’t blow money on something too extravagant.) SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Relations with others are confusing today, and it might be hard to know why. Perhaps you are kidding yourself about something, or maybe someone else is? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Escapist tendencies are a natural course of events today. This is why you want to hide or run away and join the circus. Not to worry, because this will pass soon. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Be careful in group situations today. If you think something fishy is going on, it is! People are playing fast and loose with the truth today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be very clear what bosses, parents, teachers and anyone in authority want from you today. Don’t jump to conclusions. Make sure you know what the situation is. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) It’s easy to fall for some kind of phony story today, especially if it’s dressed up in ideals and religion. Be careful someone doesn’t fool you! Ask yourself what this person really wants. YOU BORN TODAY You are curious about life, society and the people around you. In fact, you are a truth-seeker, which, in turn, makes you very knowledgeable and wise. You are not impulsive; you do your homework. Whether you are conventional or unconventional, you are aware of your public image. (Your appearance matters.) In the year ahead you will learn or study something important.

Schmidt celebrates 60th anniversary Diamond jubilee with Sisters of Charity Sister Rita Maureen Schmidt, of Sidney, is celebrating 60 years of religious life with the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati. I n 1993, she Schmidt assumed a new ministry as a pastoral associate at Holy Angels Church in Sidney, until her retirement in 2003. Currently, she is retired and living in Sidney. She spends her days involved in pastoral work planning funerals, visiting nursing homes, ministering to the Hispanic population, as well as assisting with Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) and adult
education. She is in her 16th year serving on the Home Health Care and Hospice boards of Wilson Memorial Hospital. “My life has been very spiritually enriched in so many ways. I am grateful to the community for all that has been given to me,” Schmidt said. The sister is a native of Springfield where she attended St. Joseph Grade School and Catholic Central High School, graduating in 1951. Later that year she entered the Sisters of Charity Community. “I felt the calling of religious life very early in my life and always had this way of life in mind,” she reflected. Schmidt received her bachelor’s degree in education from the College of Mount St. Joseph in
Cincinnati in 1962 and her master’s degree in education from Xavier also in University, Cincinnati, in 1968. “Teaching seemed to attract me and that is what I set out to do, even though our novice mistress asked me many times if I was sure I didn’t want to go into nursing,” Schmidt remembered. In 1954, Schmidt began her ministry in education as an intermediate teacher at the Shrine of the Little Flower Grade School in Royal Oak, Mich. (1954-58). She went on to teach at the intermediate and junior high levels at St. William (1958-59) and St. Saviour (1960-67), both in Cincinnati. From 1959 to ’60, Schmidt also served as group mother at St. Joseph Orphanage in Cincinnati before transferring to Kettering to teach junior high students at St. Albert (1967-
70). She returned to Cincinnati and St. Joseph in 1970 to minister as elementary school principal until 1973. From 1980 to ’84, Schmidt became the director of religious education at St. Joseph in Bryson City, N.C. After her sabbatical in 1984, she served as the consultant for elementary religious education for the Charlotte, N.C., Diocese until 1988. Returning to Ohio the following year, Schmidt served as elementary school principal at St. Bernard in Springfield for the next four years. A total of 33 Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati are celebrating jubilees this year. They represent 1,730 years of service in the Cincinnati area, in dioceses throughout the United States and in Guatemala, Mexico and the West Indies. Diamond jubilarians, celebrating 60 years of commitment, were hon-
ored at a Mass at the congregation’s Mount St. Joseph Motherhouse, Delhi Township, on Aug. 28. The Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati is an apostolic Catholic women’s religious community that exists to carry out the Gospel of Jesus Christ through service and prayer in the world. Sisters, using their professional talents in the fields of education, health care, social services and environmental
justice, live and minister in 32 U.S. dioceses and in Guatemala, Mexico and the West Indies. They also sponsor institutions to address education, health care and social service needs, with particular concern for direct service to the poor. Approximately 390 sisters are joined in mission by 191 associates (lay women and men). Visit the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati website at www.srcharitycinti.org.

Dickhaut wins alumni Radio Maria plans open award from seminary house at Oktoberfest Methodist Theological School in Ohio presented 2011 a Mount Alumni Award for Distinguished Service to Sidney native Walter R. Dickhaut Dickhaut Jr. The award was presented at a Sept. 19 luncheon in recognition of Dickhaut’s service to MTSO. Dickhaut earned a Master of Divinity in 1964 and a Doctor of Ministry in 1974, both from MTSO.
After several years of local church ministry in the West Ohio Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, Dickhaut served MTSO in an adjunct faculty role while he pastored the Summit Avenue Church and led Metropolitan Ministries, the Southside Settlement and Methodists for Church Renewal. In 1980, he joined the faculty of Bangor Theological Seminary in Maine, where he taught preaching and served as academic dean. He retired in 1998 as the Fogg Professor of Sacred Rhetoric and Oratory, and now lives in London, Ohio. In recent years, Dick-
haut has been instrumental in two important fundraising efforts at MTSO: the Tilson Social Justice Grant for graduating seniors and the Van Bogard Dunn Chair in Biblical Interpretation. The Mount Alumni Awards are made possible by former MTSO Trustee Emeritus John Mount and his late wife, Ruth. Methodist Theological School in Ohio prepares leaders of many faith traditions for service to the church and the world. MTSO offers master’s degrees in divinity, counseling ministries, theological studies and practical theology, as well as a Doctor of Ministry degree.
Sisters install new officers DAYTON — The Sisters of the Precious Blood of Dayton officially installed their newly elected leaders during Sunday Eucharist recently. The new leadership team includes Sisters Joyce Lehman, president; Nancy Kinross, vice president, secretary; and councilors Linda Pleiman, Cecilia Taphorn and Mary Yarger. The five women elected during their recent convocation now take up official
responsibilities, which include focusing the energies of the entire congregation for the next four years on efforts to actualize their theme: “Daring to Hope.” Elements of this endeavor include moving with deliberation to re-purpose the Retirement Center; inviting and integrating new members; strategically planning for use of resources; and collaboratively partnering for mission with people beyond their own membership.
MINSTER — It has been a busy September for the local Radio Maria station, WHJM 88.7 FM, station officials said. This is one of the station’s biggest fundraising attempts for the year as it involves three major events that culminate during the Minster Oktoberfest this weekend. The station will feature the Snack Wheel at the Oktoberfest again. This game involves snack foods such as candy, chips and soda, that a player will have a chance at winning for 25 cents per spin. During the Oktoberfest weekend, the studio will hold an open house and bake sale where guests can purchase raffle tickets, tour the studio and buy some home-baked goods. The Radio Maria Raffle has already begun and is four times as big as last year. Forty-seven businesses donated to this raffle to accumulate more than 60 possible prizes. The tickets are
being sold for $1 per tickets or six tickets for $5. Tickets may be purchased from any Radio Maria volunteer or from the studio located at 191 E. Fourth St. (the Hoying Professional Building) from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. They are also sold at the Cornerstone Shop and Western Ohio True Value in New Bremen, as well as the Silver Cross in Fort Loramie. Winners of the raffle will be drawn Sunday at the end of the open house and bake sale. Attendance is not required. Radio Maria recognized Globus Printing for printing the tickets as well as the businesses that donated the gifts. The raffle will again feature a $200 grand prize of a “sweetheart package” from The Inn of Versailles. There are $50 cash or saving bond prizes from Baumer Construction, Buscher Electric, Minster Bank, M. C. Bernhold Insurance, Prenger Implement, Osgood Bank, Spring Creek, Minster
Supply and Homan Insurance. A number of other business also contributed prizes. Many restaurants and businesses in the area also donated $10, $20 and $25 gift certificates. Radio Maria is a worldwide, nonprofit Christian radio station. WHJM 88.7 helps bring Radio Maria to this area from its studio in Minster. The station is operated by volunteers and is supported solely by its listeners.

Council interviews law director finalists BY TOM BARNETT tbarnett@sdnccg.com During a special executive session Monday afternoon, Sidney City Council members interviewed three candidates for the position of law director. Search finalists interviewed during the 1 p.m. meeting were Jeffrey Amick, of Greenville; Edward Geiser, of St. Bernard; and David Hunter, of Perrysville. The city hopes to announce a selection early next month. The candidate chosen will assume the position Jan. 1, 2012, upon the retirement of veteran law director Mike Smith. During council’s final
ZBA plans meeting A special meeting of Sidney’s Zoning Board of Appeals will be held Oct. 6 at 4 p.m. to consider a variance request by John T. Fergus, owner-developer of the new Advanced Auto Parts retail store currently under construction at 1510 Michigan St. The need for a variance results from a survey that shows the foundation building’s has been skewed and encroaches 3 to 4 inches into the side and rear yards of the property. The meeting will be held in city council chambers at the municipal building.
September meeting Monday night, members adopted four ordinances issuing bond issues and a fifth consolidating them all into one issue. The ordinances authorize issuance of various purpose general obligation bonds in an amount not to exceed $7.45 million. The issues will repay wastewater system bonds originally issued in 2001 and Municipal Court bonds issued in 1998. One of the ordinances also converts long-term debt currently being repaid to the Ohio Police and Fire Pension Fund to general obligation bonds. Finance Director Ginger Adams told council the new bond issues will
payable from general fund revenues) $15,000 at 4.25 percent interest. Council also adopted an ordinance rezoning three lots at 430 N. Main Ave. from light industrial to community business district. The property is used primarily by Ace Hardware and an accounting business. By resolution Monnight, council day adopted the city’s 2012 to 2016 Five-Year Operating Plan and accepted a perpetual storm drainage easement from Shelby County Memorial Hospital Association and Wilson Memorial Hospital. Capital projects, service priorities and staffing plans outlined in the Five-Year Plan
mature over a 12-year period, the municipal court bonds in 2018 and the wastewater bonds in 2022. Consolidated into one issue, the debt is made up of the following: • Wastewater system improvement bonds (repayable from from sewer revenues) $5.625 million at 4.5 percent. • Series 21998 Municipal Court improvement bonds (repayable from income tax revenues) $1.45 million at 4.6 percent. • Police officers Ohio Police and Fire Pension Fund debt (reapayable from general fund revenues) $230,000 at 4.25 percent and firefighters Ohio Police and Fire Pension Fund debt (re-
will be incorporated into the city’s 2012 budget. With the easement, the city will operate, maintain and replace an 84-inch storm sewer on the hospital’s campus. Other resolutions appointed Michael Jannides to the Sidney Tree Board and reappointed David O’Leary and Gary Harbison to the Citizens Peer Review Committee, Ralph Keister to the Income Tax Board of Appeals and James Lockwood to the Personnel Board of Appeals. Consultants Mark Quimby and Dan Roeser of Soil and Materials Engineers Inc. presented a summary of activities related to the assessment and eventual remediation of the
former Wagner Manufacturing site at Fair Road and Wilkinson Avenue. Prior to Monday night’s legislative session, Roger Bender and Jerry Geuy presented Clean Sweep of the Great Miami River awards to the city of Sidney and Cargill Inc., major sponsors of the event. The awards were accepted by Mayor Mike Barhorst and by Andrea Flowers for Cargill. Police Chief Kevin Gessler also presented Life-Saving awards to officers Andy Shappie, Aaron Wesbecher, Matt Dembski and Greg Cruse for rescuing the occupant of a smokefilled residence at 939 Buckeye Ave. on Sept. 7.
Consultants update council on project BY TOM BARNETT tbarnett@sdnccg.com The city of Sidney has been planning for several years to eliminate the abandoned and unsafe former Wagner Manufacturing buildings at 440 Fair Road, but has been unable to obtain the environmental assessment data needed to obtain funding for its demolition and cleanup. Last year the city received a $185,000 U.S. EPA Brownfield Assessment grant and emp l o y e d Cincinnati-based environmental consultants Soil and Material Engineers Inc. (SME) to con-
duct an assessment of the property. The company has been recognized nationally for pioneering work in transforming old, blighted and contaminated sites into sustainable new uses. The city’s short-term goal is to demolish the structures and eliminate any environmental hazards. The long term goal is reuse of the property in some fashion. Monday During night’s Sidney City Council meeting, SME representatives Mark Quimby and Dan summarized Roeser work completed thus far on the project as staff and council mem-
bers listened intently. The Wagner site was an iron and aluminum foundry for more than 100 years, but has been vacant since 2008 and in poor shape since the mid-1990s. Quimby told council the site’s buildings are unsafe and portions of the roof have collapsed. Police continuously respond to break-ins. He said SME has conducted hazardous materials, property conditions and phase one property assessments, well as sampling and analysis work as it plans for the project’s second phase. A total of 39 recognized environmental
conditions have been consolidated into 17 areas of potential environmental impact They include former coal storage, foundry operations, oil pits, acid tanks and PCB transformers. Suggested future uses of the site include modified residential, a park, commercial and industrial, “but not single-family homes,” Quimby said. The sampling and analysis work plan, he explained, includes 75 soil borings, nine groundwater wells and a $276,000 budget estimate for Phase 2 of the project. A Clean Ohio Assis-
tance Fund $202,000 grant has been requested for the project and the balance of Phase 2 costs could be funded through a $75,000 U.S. EPA grant. SME has worked with the city to prepare the grant application which lists modified residenas the site’s tial planned future. Target date for the application is next July. Quimby told council, “Sidney has an advantage because no Clean Ohio Assistance Fund grants have been awarded in this region A public meeting on the grant application has been tentatively set for Nov. 1.

The Sidney Buzz Writer’s Corner Advanced Communications Family Interview
My Grandfather’s First Job BY ANDREW SLONE
“Do you remember your first job?” That was my first question to my grandfather, Bobby J. Slone. His first words to that question were an extremely excited “Oh boy.” Then he asked a question in return, “You really wanna interview me?” Indeed I did want to interview him about his very first job. As we sat there in his living room on his greenish-blue colored couch, he slid on his reading glasses and sat back as if he was in deep thought. In reality he was. He let out a slight grin as he was remembering his first job at a metal making factory. Now my grandfather had his very first job at sixteen years of age, back in 1957. He said his starting pay was a whole $1.10 an hour. Back then it was a lot if money. The reasoning for choosing this job, he said, was because it was an easy factory job that made all kinds of metal parts for anything from cars to dishwashers. The only real qualifications for the job were to be mechanically inclined; he was very good at fixing things. My grandfather got all of his training while on the job and he averaged almost 44 hours a week. He said his favorite part of the job was being able to accomplish that particular job he was given to do. Mr. Slone also said what he really liked about the job was that everyone working there became like family. The job being really dirty was my grandfather’s least favorite part. My grandfather rode to work in style. He drove a 1950 Ford Fairlane to work every day. He said he always got along good with his superiors and never got in trouble on the job. “Paying rent, car payments, and up-keep of everything” he said, was usually what the money he made went towards. The only real stress put on my grandfather was that the job was very dangerous. His most common mistake was not checking for blisters on the metal parts before they went to be chromed. He said he learned how to work together from doing this job. A specific memory he had was when he had to untangle a power drill for a girls’ hair because she was running it next to her head for no apparent reason. When asked what classes he would take if he could start school over again, he said he would take medical classes because he always wanted to be a dentist. He said an important characteristic to be successful on a job is to be serious and take the job earnestly. My grandfather believes that teens should have a job but shouldn’t work any more than 4 hours a day. He also said that teenagers today should have a financial outlook on life so they don’t have to struggle. In conclusion, my grandfather did indeed remember his first job. If you’re a parent or grandparent reading this, tell your kids or grand kids about your first job. They might find it interesting how much has changed over the years. I, for one, know that I found it very interesting to learn about my grandfather's first job.

“This is our time”
Senior-Freshman Siblings: Logan Monnin (brother Lane Monnin absent), Alex and Margo Baker, Lindsey and Greg Spearman, Masie and Dylan Sherman, Meghan and Nick Earhart, Katie and Rocco Catanzarite, and Michael and Samantha Comer
It’s a family thing BY: MARIA YANNUCCI Many siblings have a hard enough time putting up with each other at home, let alone being together all day at school. This year, Lehman has a record breaking number of senior-freshman siblings. The family duos include Margo and Alex Baker, Samantha and Michael Comer, Meghan and Nick Earhart, Katie and Rocco Catanzarite, Masie and Dylan Sherman, Lindsey and Greg Spearman, and Logan and Lane Monnin. When asked how he felt about having his younger sister join him at Lehman, senior Alex Baker responded, “It is fun to pick on Margo when I see her in the halls.” Senior Lindsey Spearman said about her brother, “I love seeing that little nugget’s face around school!” Making the transition from being in the eighth grade to being in high school is often hard on many freshmen, these lucky few already knew Lehman quite well through their siblings. “ Freshman year has been fun because everyone already knows me through Lindsey,” said Greg Spearman. Having these sets of siblings has created a bond between the two classes. “Dylan loves seeing me every day and always tries to be like me,” said senior Masie Sherman. “He secretly knows we are best friends!” There is some obvious love and laughter between all these sets of siblings, and they seem to enjoy being together at Lehman.
BY: AMY WATERCUTTER You have probably seen him around the halls of Lehman, either this year or last, but you may not know who he is. The man who always seems to have a smile on his face is Mr. Scott Greve, the Director of Development at Lehman. Although he did not originally plan to apply for this job, after he visited Lehman’s Open House to consider registering his son Alec for classes, he was approached by Lehman President Mike Barhorst about the position. Greve felt that this was God’s calling for his life. As the Director of Development, Greve’s main job is to meet with donors to the school one-on-one and develop plans for their investment in Lehman. He also communicates with Alumni through the Lehman Link publication. Along with his different duties, Greve came up with a theme for this year: “This is our time.” When asked why he chose this theme for the school year, Greve replied, “I spent some time praying about it, and it signifies that it really is our time. Whether we are benefactors, parents, students, or teachers, God created us for this time and it is important what we do with our lives in this school year.” It was clear when interviewing Greve that he is very enthusiastic for Lehman and his job. “Lehman is the people, the community, and the tradition, but its more than that,” he said. “It is what the school stands for, and what we do on a day-to-day basis here at Lehman, which is evangelizing. It’s a blessing for me just to be able to walk through the door in the morning.” Greve’s theme for this year should stand as a reminder for everyone involved at Lehman that this is our year, and we can make it great.
Tennis talk BY: LEXI FRONING It’s fall meaning it is time for the tennis girls to begin tournament play. Sectionals are at Troy Park on October 4. This year’s team has high goals, with 2010 district qualifiers Kandis Sargeant and Nicole Larger leading the way at first doubles. They are joined by Meghan Bennett at first singles, Julia Harrelson at second singles, MacKenzie Brown at 3rd singles, and Kerri Josefovsky and Victoria King at second doubles. “There is definitely going to be some good teams at sectionals, but I am confident Lehman is going to do well,” said Harrelson. Harrelson has every right to be confident based on Lehman’s recent victory at the Carroll Invitational where they won the championship for the second straight year. “I am privileged to be coaching such a wonderful team,” said Coach Pippy Booth. “They are not only great sportsmen, but also extremely charitable.” The team feels the same way about Booth. Senior Bennett said, “The past three years have been really positive experiences. I am excited and looking forward to sectionals.”
The history guy BY: NICK BOSHONEK “History is a way to learn how past events affect the present and future. This why I wanted to become a history teacher,” said Mr. Matthew Normile, one of several new teachers at Lehman this year. Normile comes from a rich Catholic backround. Just like current Lehman students, he attended a Catholic high school. He graduated from DeMes Jesuit High School in St. Louis, Missouri, in 2002. Normile graduated from Xavier University with a bachelor’s degree in history. Before coming to Lehman, Normile was a substitute teacher at Moeller High School in Cincinnati. “The reason I came to Lehman was because I was raised Catholic, went to a Catholic high school, then graduated from a Catholic university. I really wanted to grow and learn in my Faith,” said Normile. Normile teaches Government, American History, and World Geography, as well as moderating the Mock Trial team. When teaching these classes he hopes to gain “a mutual positive learning experience with the students.” Outside of teaching, he enjoys swimming, which he did in both high school and college. Another joy is cheering on his alma mater, the Xavier Musketeers. So far Normile is enjoying his teaching experience. “My favorite part about Lehman really is the enthusiasm of the students,” he said. Senior DJ Hemm, a student in the Government class, said “I like his methods and original personalitity.” Lehman is glad to add a great new teacher such as Matthew Normile to its staff.

Jackets host 0-5 Springboro BY KEN BARHORST kbarhorst@sdnccg.com The first four weeks of the season didn’t go at all well for the Sidney Yellow Jackets, but none were as bad as last week, says head coach Adam Doenges. The Jackets trailed 54-0 at the half and wound up losing 54-14 to visiting Fairborn, a team that came to town with a .500 record. “Last week was by far the most disheartening game this year,” said Doenges. “I thought we had our best week of practice. We always stress the fundamentals, and we thought we had a great week of practice in terms of tackling. But then we came out and missed tackles and weren’t gangtackling.
“We spent Saturday rehashing things and figuring out what we have to do to get better this week,” he added. ‘It’s not a lack of effort on the part of the kids or the coaches. It just goes back to that word consistency again.” The Jackets stay at home this week to take on the Springboro Panthers, who come in with an uncharacteristic 0-5 record so far. They are giving up 43.6 points per game and have been beaten by Mason, Sycamore, Vandalia, Troy and Centerville. Doenges isn’t paying much attention to that 0-5 mark, however. “They are a pretty good football team,” he said. “They are very well-coached and always have been. They do a lot of things offensively with mo-
tion and formations, and it makes them a very tough team to prepare for defensively. They haven’t faced a team that’s spread it out like we do, so we’re not sure what they’ll do.” The Panthers average 322 yards per game, and allow 386. Doenges expects the Panthers to run the ball a lot, even though they’ve been forced to throw a lot in their first five games. Quarterback Josh Little is fifth in the Greater Western Ohio Conference in yards passing so far with 860. He’s hitting a healthy 63.7 percent of his passes, and has nine touchdowns and just three interceptions. Jalen Campbell leads the Panthers in rushing with 296

NEW YORK Mets’ Jose Reyes runs to first base for a bunt single during the first inning of a baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday in New York. Reyes, the NL batting leader, was lifted for a pinch-runner after his first at-bat in the Mets’ final game of the season.
Reds end with 3-0 loss NEW YORK (AP) — Jose Reyes bunted for a base hit in the first inning to enhance his NL batting title chances, then was lifted for a pinch runner as fans booed after what could have been his final at-bat for the New York Mets during a season-ending 3-0 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday. The hit elevated Reyes’ average to .337057 and gave him a 2 1-2 point lead over Ryan Braun, who was at .334525 heading into Milwaukee’s regular-season finale against Pittsburgh. The Mets have never had a batting champion, and Braun could edge out Reyes by going 3 for 4. The dynamic shortstop with a broad grin and bouncy dreadlocks bunted Edinson Volquez’s second pitch down the third base line, and a charging Juan Francisco couldn’t pick up the ball. Fans booed again when Reyes’ replacement at shortstop was introduced by the public address announcer, and on the SNY telecast former

yards so far. “They’re going to be a runoriented team,” Doenges said. “They’re a little banged up at running back, but the kid they have in there now really runs hard. And they have a goodsized quarterback who makes the correct reads and puts the ball where it needs to be.” Doenges has been pleased with the way his team has stayed after it despite the early-season struggles. “They’re still practicing hard all the way through,” he said. “Our kids have grown. Look at who we’re starting, a lot of juniors and some sophomores. We have a freshman at wideout and some other freshmen knocking on the door. And I really like our JV team. They’re 3-2 and have had some big wins.”

Mets star Keith Hernandez called the move “disappointing.” Signed by the Mets as a 16year-old out of the Dominican Republic, Reyes can become a free agent after the World Series ends. In a season interrupted by leg injuries that caused two stints on the disabled list, he scored 101 runs and led the majors with 16 triples. Fans chanted “Please stay, Jose!” throughout the ninth inning, and he gave a salute to the crowd as he walked off the field. Chants of “Jose Reyes!” continued after he threw his hat into the stands. Reyes planned to host 15 to 20 friends at his home to watch Braun’s progress. If Reyes wins the title, friends in the Dominican Republic intended to hold a parade for him in his hometown. Miguel Batista (5-2) pitched a two-hitter for his 11th complete game, his first since July 19, 2006, for Arizona against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He allowed a one-out single to Edgar Renteria in

the first and leadoff double to Chris Heisey in the second. Queens product Mike Baxter hit his first big league homer, a two-run drive into the bullpens in right-center off Volquez (5-7) in the sixth. Nick Evans singled in a run in the fourth. The Mets, beset with financial issues, traded Carlos Beltran and Francisco Rodriguez during the season, lost David Wright for several months with a back injury and finished their third straight losing season at 77-85, two more losses than last year. Cincinnati also had a disappointing season, winding up at 79-83 after winning the NL Central last year with a 91-71 record. Before the game Reds manager Dusty Baker said the Reds were playing to “get off those nines,” but Batista was able to keep Joey Votto and Jay Bruce from rounding out their numbers. Votto went 0 for 3 to end the season with 29 homers and Bruce failed to get the three RBIs he needed for 100.

VERSAILLES — The Fort Loramie girls golf team will play in the district tournament again this year, after finishing second in the Division II Sectional at Stillwater Valley Golf Course in VerPleiman sailles on Wednesday. The Lady Redskins, behind the excellent play of Tori Pleiman, shot a 404 to finish behind a talented National Trail team that shot a 376. Also qualifying were Covington and Indian Lake. In addition to the Lady Redskins, Russia’s Tori Borchers and Versailles’ Brooke Wehrkamp qualified as individuals to the district. Borchers became the first female golfer in Russia history to qualify for the district. Pleiman shot an 88 to lead Fort Loramie and that was good enough for medalist honors. “She played very, very well,” said Loramie coach Mike Anthony. “She had 44 on both sides, and everything was very consistent. She hit the ball straight, and that’s very important at this stage.” Ashley Ordean came in with a 98, Julia Holthaus had 106 and Taylor Middendorf 112 for the Lady Redskins. Meanwhile, Russia’s Borchers qualified as an individual after shooting a 104, and Wehrkamp did likewise for Versailles with a 103. Those two and the Loramie girls will play in the district on Wednesday of next week at Pipestone Golf Club in Miamisburg. The top three teams and the top three individuals not on qualifying teams will advance to the state tournament. Other Russia scores were Morgan Daugherty with a 114, Alexa Counts 115 and Taylor Borchers 119. Also for Versailles, Elizabeth White had a 106, Danielle Cochran 107, and Emily Harman 118.
LUKE KINDELIN
Anna senior golfing standout Luke Kindelin had an outstanding week last week. It started with the Ridgedale Invitational, in which he fired a 74 to take medalist honors by five strokes. Then on Thursday in the County Golf Meet, he shot a 70 to again claim medalist honors and lead the Rockets to a runner-up finish.

Four Turns START IS NO GUARANTEE Tony 1 HOT Stewart’s consecutive wins to start the
1. Tony Stewart
Chase mark the second time a driver has come out of the gate fast in the playoffs. In 2008, Greg Biffle won in Loudon and at Dover to begin the Chase. He then posted a third at Kansas in the third race. However, Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards combined to win the last five races of the season and finished first and second in the Chase, while Biffle was a distant third. UNDERDOG NO MORE Brad Keselowski is not being overlooked by any Chase team. With his runner-up finish in New Hampshire, the 27-yearold in his second full Cup season now has nine consecutive runs of 12th or better. He’s averaged a 4.5-place finish in that span and sits third in the standings, only 11 points behind the leader, Stewart. SOLID SHOWINGS It has been three years since a Roush Fenway Ford has visited Victory Lane in New Hampshire, and while Jack Roush’s quartet failed to do so again last Sunday, they each came to play. All four finished in the top 10 — a feat not accomplished since Roush went to a four-car operation in 1998. TEACH ’EM A LESSON Kurt Busch’s Penske Racing Dodge failed post-race inspection at New Hampshire and was held off the grid until 10 minutes before the command to start engines when its rear-end housing was found to be 1/32” off. Message delivered, team owner Roger Penske said. “The problem was we had been (late) the last two or three weeks getting through tech. Then if we had a little bit of a problem, we had to go back through again and (NASCAR) said, ‘We’ve had enough of you going back through for just little things.’” No further penalties are forthcoming.

Difficult to place him anywhere else. Smoke has two consecutive wins and an average finish of fourth over the last four weeks. Peaking at the right time. Probably had the best car in New Hampshire, but the fuel calculations were off. That most likely cost him six valuable championship points, which could come back to bite. Yes, he’s in a hole, but do you dare kick dirt on his grave yet? Johnson, Knaus and the boys are at their best when fighting for points at playoff time. In case you needed any further convincing, Keselowski and the No. 2 team are for real. And they’re a dangerous third in the point standings. Edwards is riding a five race top-10 streak and sits fourth in the standings. This team has been able to post numerous wins in short order in the past. Can they do it again this year? Will Harvick fall back into the seventh- to 14th-place swoon of mid-summer? Not likely, but worth keeping in mind as the Chase heats up. Passed more cars than any driver on the track after rebounding from a spin in New Hampshire. Had to be a tough pill to swallow that the spin came courtesy of his teammate, Edwards. Still dangerous, but looking mortal following 22nd- and 11th-place showings to start the Chase. Is a “Come to Coach Gibbs” meeting in order? Led the first 62 laps after sitting on the pole in Loudon, but a flat tire with five laps to go was a killer. This team still has the potential to rebound, but how far is unclear. Another victim of tire issues, Junior blew one out while running sixth with 71 laps remaining. Even when this bunch runs well, they can’t seem to catch a break. Busch’s day in Loudon started bad and stayed that way. A near-win with Harvick’s cast-away’d pit crew had to feel like a moral victory. Led 46 laps after gaining track position, but faded to 24th in a frustrating ending. Three laps to go. Running sixth. Out of fuel. Such is the No. 11 team’s season. Has quietly pieced together three consecutive runs of 11th or better. AJ Allmendinger, Marcos Ambrose, Greg Biffle, Kasey Kahne, Martin Truex Jr.

Tracks on Tap SPRINT CUP SERIES Race: AAA 400 Track: Dover International Speedway Location: Dover, Del. When: Sunday, Oct. 2 TV: ESPN (2:00 p.m. EST) Layout: 1-mile oval Banking/Turns: 24 degrees Banking/Straightaways: 9 degrees May Winner: Matt Kenseth Crew Chief’s Take: “Dover is an all-concrete track and is banked all the way around; even the straights have nine degrees of banking. Therefore, right-side tire management is a race-long concern. Dover provides drivers with multiple grooves from which to choose, but normally, the best cars are the ones that will run the low line around the track. The transitions from turns to straights are unique. Drivers call it ‘falling down’ in the turns. Concrete has its pluses and minuses, but it made this track a lot better.”

Most had written off Tony Stewart as a legitimate 2011 championship contender — including himself, if you believed his words in the midst of a 27th-, ninth- and 28th-place string just six weeks ago. After all, his No. 14 team was winless through NASCAR’s 26race regular season, averaging a pedestrian 14.2-place finish with only three top 5s. Then the Chase for the Championship hit and, inexplicably, Stewart and his team have come alive. Stewart won his second straight race — the second of the Chase — in the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday, and in the process, assumed the points lead. Stewart passed Clint Bowyer as Bowyer’s fuel cell ran dry with two laps remaining, reversing last season’s New Hampshire Chase outcome that saw Bowyer capitalize on Stewart’s empty gas tank. “It’s amazing that it’s happened like that,” Stewart said. “But Clint was one of the first guys that called last year and, as happy as he was that he won the race, he knew how disappointing it was for us. “You don’t want to win them that way (on fuel mileage) and you don’t want to see guys lose them that way. This is a sport that guys have a high level of respect for what happens and how it happens. To have a win get away from you that way, it’s disappointing for anybody. “We may not have been the best car at the end — Clint was just a tick better than us. I definitely did not know he was in a situation to worry about fuel. So the good thing

TONY STEWART Who else? He’s charged out of the gate with consecutive victories to open the Chase. The key will now be maintaining a top-5 pace. NEW HAMPSHIRE MOTOR SPEEDWAY If NHMS were to raise its 12 degrees of banking to 20 degrees, just imagine the closed-quarter racing it would stage on its tight, one-mile layout. Until then, races here will be largely single-file parades. Compiled and written by Matt Taliaferro. Follow Matt on Twitter @MattTaliaferro or email at Matt.Taliaferro@AthlonSports.com

is Darian told us we were two, three laps to the good. I got to run hard all the way to the end.” To be fair, Stewart’s car was good enough to win the race, and having the mileage to get there was just icing on the cake. He finished second at New Hampshire in July to his Stewart-Haas Racing teammate, Ryan Newman, in a fuel-mileage duel, and won last week at Chicagoland under the same circumstances. However, the one car that may have been better than his was Jeff Gordon’s No. 24. Gordon led a racehigh 78 laps, but ran out of gas coming to pit road under green-flag pit stops with 70 laps remaining. It took the team valuable seconds to get the machine refired, and even then, they did not get the car full of fuel. That forced Gordon into conservation mode. He backed off down the stretch to avoid running out of gas and settled for a fourth-place finish. Brad Keselowski and Greg Biffle were second and third. “It’s a bit of a surprise we ran out under green,” Gordon said. “We were expecting to get a couple more laps. “We’re making great horsepower, but we’re not getting good fuel mileage. But Tony is figuring out a

Tony Stewart’s New Hampshire win was the 41st of his NASCAR Cup career, placing him in sole possession of 16th on the all-time wins list. He sits three victories shy of Bill Elliott in 15th. The win also vaulted him to the top of the Chase standings, which marks the first time the Columbus, Ind., native has led the playoff standings since his title year in 2005. However, no driver leading the standings after the second race of the Chase has gone on to win the championship.

NASCAR will implement two rule changes for next month’s running of the Good Sam Club 500 Sprint Cup Series race at Talladega Superspeedway. The size of the restrictor plate that teams will use to prepare and practice for the race will increase by 1/64”. This will provide the teams with an additional seven to 10 horsepower. Additionally, the pressure relief valve on the cars’ cooling system will be recalibrated to reduce the pressure by approximately eight pounds per square inch from last April’s Cup
way to do it, so give those guys credit — those guys have the same engines we have and we have to do a better job at it. I have to do a better job at it.” Defending five-time champion Jimmie Johnson got into a fender war with Kyle Busch with 21 laps remaining. Although neither wrecked, something in Johnson’s steering system was bent, and he finished 18th. “Today we just didn’t have the speed,” Johnson, who is 29 points behind Stewart, said. “And track position was so important and we didn’t have some pit calls go our way.” Johnson’s main competition last season, Denny Hamlin, had his second straight frustrating race. His No. 11 Toyota ran out of gas with three laps to go, despite the fact his crew chief, Mike Ford, assured him they could make it the distance. He finished 29th and, after a 31st-place showing last week, is 66 points out of the Chase lead and all but eliminated. As for the points leader, though, his faith is renewed. “These guys have never quit,” Stewart said. “These guys have never given up and we got a shot at this thing.”
race at Talladega. Also, teams will not be allowed to grease the bumpers of their cars at the 2.66mile tri-oval. Recently, teams had used all number of lubricants on the bumpers of the cars so that when two cars “bump drafted,” the bumpers would slide off each other, avoiding a spin. These measures appear to be the first steps by the sanctioning body to discourage the two-car “tandem” drafts witnessed in recent plate-race events, and returning to the traditional “pack drafts” at Daytona and Talladega.

If Michael Waltrip Racing signs Clint Bowyer for the 2012 season — which is expected — look for the operation to stay at three teams. Currently, JTG-Daugherty Racing houses its cars out of the MWR shop, in essence making it MWR’s third team. However, JTG-Daugherty’s No. 47 car, driven by Bobby Labonte, may well end its relationship with MWR at season’s end. It is expected to look to align itself with another team for 2012.

Classic Moments Dover International Speedway Proving his shocking win in the Daytona 500 earlier in the season was no fluke, Derrike Cope leads 93 laps and wins the 1990 Budweiser 500 in Dover. Cope shoots to the lead by lap 160, but a miscalculation by his crew chief causes his No. 10 Purolator Chevy to run out of gas while pacing the field, dropping him off the lead lap. Cope has a strong car, though, and races his way back onto the lead lap (without the aid of Lucky Dogs or wave-arounds). A fast pit stop under a lap 421 caution bumps him up to second, and on lap 446, he passes Rusty Wallace, who leads 131 laps in the Miller Genuine Draft Pontiac, for the lead. From there, Cope holds off Ken Schrader to earn his second, and final, career victory.
Athlon Fantasy Stall Looking at Checkers: It’s hard to overlook Jimmie Johnson’s six wins at Dover. Pretty Solid Pick: Mark Martin has made no secret of his love of Dover. His four wins are proof of it. Good Sleeper Pick: Guys turn it up a notch when racing at their home track, and this is Martin Truex’s turf. Runs on Seven Cylinders: Juan Pablo Montoya has led only five of the 3,415 laps he’s completed at Dover. Insider Tip: Trouble happens quick here. Having a good qualifier who stays up front is a bonus.

challenged them and made sure they knew there was a whole season still to go, and the kids have responded to every challenge we’ve thrown at them. “But would I have guessed that we’d have four shutouts and average 50 points a game? he added. “I dream big, but I never dreamed of that.” Friday might be a case of the irresistible force meeting the immovable object. With their four straight shutouts, the Redskins are allowing only five points per game. Dayton Christian, meanwhile, comes in averaging 51 points per game. “So something has to give,” said Burgbacher. “It will be a test for our defense, but I think we’re up to it. We’ve watched them on film and our kids know what’s coming. They don’t run a lot of stuff, but what they do run, they run well.” He said the Warriors have a three-year starter at running back and excellent team speed. “We’ll focus on their best back, who’s real good,” said Burgbacher. “But they have other kids that can hurt you, too. “They’re similar to us in what they do,” he said. “It’s like a wing-T but not really a wing-T. It’s more of a spread wing.
They will try to get outside and they have two spread ends on every play.” Burgbacher has two game films of Dayton Christian, which is the norm for all high school teams. “I think we’re better than the two teams we’ve seen them play on film,” he said. “I think we do some things they haven’t seen, but they do some things offensively that we haven’t seen. So I guess that goes both ways. We want to come out and be physical with them. They really haven’t been tested yet, so we need to get off to a good start.” The Redskins present plenty of problems for the DC defense with their bevy of running backs. There are five Redskin backs that have rushed for over 240 yards so far this season, led by Cory Brandewie. He’s joined by interchangeable backs Brent Goldschmidt, Tyler Zeis, Logan McGee and Delaunte Thornton. “We feel good, but I’m sure they feel good too right now,” Burgbacher said. “We’re really pleased with the way our kids are playing. We’re scoring points, defensively we’re sound, and our special teams have been solid these last four weeks. Right now we’re playing our best football and they can probably say the same thing. So it should be a good one.”

They throw the ball well with a sophomore quarterback, who is as good as the kid from Jefferson. And they have a real good senior running back. Those are the two kids we’re going to have to keep track of.” See CAVS/Page A20

We teams in the league. But caused a fumble, and we for us to get three in a have five kids around
the ball. They had one kid coming up behind the play, but it’s still five to two. But they recover it. It was a great effort on our part but bad luck. “Then in the second half, we turn them over on about the 30, we convert a fourth down and move the chains,” he went on. “Then we have another fourth down and the pass is there. But the receiver slips down and the ball goes over his head. “It’s not like we’re the nail and the other teams are the hammer,” he said. “We’re hitting as well as anybody and playing as well as anybody. But it’s a bounce here and a bounce there.” But he wouldn’t trade the competition for anything, recalling the days when the Rockets won weekly by lopsided margins when they were a part of the Cross County Conference. “Every week, it’s quality opponents,” he said. “I can’t imagine beating
teams 40-0 every week and feeling good about it. When you play those teams, you don’t get any better and you pay for it in the postseason. Plus, you know you’re padding your stats.” The Rockets go for their first MAC win Friday at home and will be favored over winless New Bremen, which comes to town with an 0-5 mark. Rioch is discounting the record. “There are no bad teams in this league,” he said. “(Elliott) Westerbeck is a good athlete and a dual threat at quarterback. And he has nice receivers on the outside. They run the ball pretty well, too. “We need to come out and be physical up front,” he added. “And we’re going to run the ball. And we have to get after them defensively and be physical again. “Our kids are getting better and they’re playing hard,” he went on. “Sooner or later, we’ll put it all together.”
From Page A19
Roll is hoping to make the Cavaliers a bit more diversified on offense as this team continues to be a work in progress. “The kids have a lot to learn yet,” he said. “They have to learn to win, to take the good with the bad, and not to get overconfident or down too much. Just keep it on an even keel. All the coaches have been around winners and know what it takes. We’re still working on things. We’re starting to throw the ball better, but we’re still running the ball right at teams, and we want to sooner or later be able to run some counters. There are only certain things we can do right now. We try to add a little, though, try
something here and there. We just don’t want to throw much at them.” The Cavs have to prepare for another spread offense this week, something that’s not easy do duplicate in practice. But Roll says he has an ace up his sleeve — his freshmen. “Our freshman class this year is football savvy,” he said. “And they can do the spread when we need to. There are a lot of skilled kids in that class, and if the coach shows them something, they remember it. It’s nice to have, because we’ve struggled with that in the past. But they do a great job of preparing our defense for whatever we’re facing.”

CLEVELAND BROWNS running back Montario Hardesty (31) stiff-arms Miami Dolphins cornerback Jimmy Wilson after a pass reception in the fourth quarter of an NFL football game Sunday in Cleveland. The Browns won 17-16.
Hardesty gives Browns 1-2 punch at running back And, who knows? There could come a time in the future when Hardesty supplants Hillis as Cleveland’s primary back. For now, though, the Browns believe they have two solid backs they can use in single-back formations or packages together. It’s a luxury they haven’t had in years. Whether it’s the hardhitting Hillis or shifty Hardesty getting the ball, Cleveland’s line doesn’t have to do anything radical ‚Äî just block. “We don’t really change our scheme up too much,” quarterback Colt McCoy said. “But they both have a little bit different style and I think both are really good. I think having Montario get a chance to play in that game will help us, especially as we move forward. He’ll give Peyton some blows and it’s good. We’re excited about those two guys.” Hillis returned to practice on Wednesday as the Browns (2-1) began installing their game plan for Sunday against the Tennessee Titans (2-1). Hillis spent Saturday night at the team’s downtown hotel and went to the stadium on Sunday morning expecting to play. However, when his symptoms worsened, Hillis was sent home by Shurmur two hours before kickoff. The Browns went into
the game short-handed at running back with just Hardesty rookie Armond Smith. Hillis was only briefly in Cleveland’s locker room following practice before going to the weight room. “I’ve started feeling better the past couple days,” said Hillis, expected to meet with reporters Thursday. “I’ve gained back a little of the weight I lost.” Shurmur’s dilemma going forward could be deciding how to split the carries up evenly for Hillis and Hardesty. As long as Hillis can play, the Browns will probably remain cautious with Hardesty, who tore his anterior cruciate ligament in the final preseason game last year Shurmur made it clear that Hillis, who ran for nearly 1,200 yards last season and is in negotiations for a contract extension, remains the Browns’ No. 1 back. Hardesty may be 1a. “I do know that Peyton can carry a big load and I think that’s good,” Shurmur said. “I’ve said it before and believe it. If you are going to play consistently good football throughout the season, you need them both. If you are going to play good offense in this league, there’s going to be times during the year when you’re going to need one to step up a little bit more than the other.”

BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Using his instincts, Montario Hardesty spotted the hole and burst through toward daylight. With Peyton Hillis unable to play against Miami on Sunday because of a severe case of strep throat, Hardesty got to make his first NFL start for the Browns. He made the most of it. And Cleveland’s backfield may never be the same. Hardesty rushed for 67 yards on 14 attempts, gaining 19 on a thirdquarter carry where he displayed all the qualities — speed, size and strength — that convinced the Browns to trade three draft picks to Philadelphia and select him in the second round last year. Hardesty missed his entire rookie season following knee surgery, but he’s finally healthy and the Browns’ running game may be about to get much better. “What we found Sunday is Montario’s further along than I thought he was and can handle more than I thought he could,” said Browns coach Pat Shurmur, who never imagined Hardesty being on the field for more than 60 offensive plays. “Sometimes that happens out of necessity.” Hardesty’s emergence gives the Browns another option on offense.

Do
you think this is true? Should sweetener be added, or water? — N.F. ANSWER: I believe you’re referring to the work of Carol Johnston, Ph.D., a professor in the nutrition department of Arizona State University. She showed that taking 2 tablespoons of vinegar before or during a meal lowers the sudden spike in blood sugar that happens with eating. Such spikes are not good if they are very high and occur often. They disturb blood sugar control. This isn’t a cure for diabetes. It might be a help for sugar control. Your husband should not stop using his diabetes medicines or abandon his diabetic diet. I don’t know why the TV doctor insisted on red vinegar. Dr. Johnston didn’t. You can take the vinegar along with olive oil as a salad dressing. You can dilute it in water if you want. You can add an artificial sweetener to it if the sweetener doesn’t say not to. And you can start with the TV doctor’s recommendation of 2 teaspoons instead of 2 tablespoons. See if the 2 teaspoons work. If it doesn’t, increase the dose until you reach the 2 table-
spoons dose. Are you sure your husband tolerates vinegar? I guess there’s only one way to find out. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Enclosed are two articles that appeared at different times in the paper. I cannot find any good information on either. I would appreciate your comments. I am in the early stages of dry macular degeneration. — T.O. ANSWER: The first article is on a newer method, not approved in the U.S., of treating retinitis pigmentosa. It’s an inherited eye disease. It isn’t related to macular degeneration. The second article is on wet macular degeneration, the less-common form, the kind that can progress rapidly. You have dry macular degeneration. The current treatment for moderate dry macular degeneration is a combination of various vitamins and minerals. PreserVision and Occuvite contain the combination. Please check with your doctor before taking either. You are in the early stages. Treatment is recommended at moderate stages.
Sept. 29, 1911 Cowan, “Rubber” charged with casting an illegal vote at the recent option election, was arraigned before the mayor this morning to pleas to the charge against him. He entered a plea bargain of not guilty, waived examination and was bound over to the court in the sum of $1,000 bond. In default of bond he was sent to jail. Cowan was taken custody in Marion yesterday. He is alleged to have arrived in Sidney the day of the election and immediately preceded to precinct A in fourth ward to vote. He has been traveling with the Wallace shows as a circus clown. ––––– H.C. Meyerholtz and O.B. Blake had a narrow escape from being killed yesterday afternoon. They were coming home from the country, when about three miles south of Sidney they met two motorcycles. The young colt they were driving became frightened and the buggy turned sideways in the road and one of the motorcycles crashed into it. Meyerholtz was thrown from the buggy and knocked in conscious. The rider of the motorcycle, believed to be from Piqua, was also badly injured, but was taken to that city.

The plant took over the area in the garden which had been planted with carrots and peas. ––––– Purchase of milk operations of Quality Dairy, Inc. on Highland Avenue, by Sidney Diary Products, Inc. was announced today. The joint announcement was made by Richard Henke, president of Sidney Dairy, and Ray Kholar owner of Quality Dairy. Kholar, a former Piqua resident, has operated Quality Dairy since Oct. 1, 1948.

By constantly belittling and correcting you, he is trying to assert control and shake your confidence in yourself. A husband who pouts and makes you feel bad when you
tell him he’s making you miserable is a poor life partner. He may be insecure, overbearing or have OCD. Or he could be a potential abuser. Insist on marriage counseling to find out which, or get out of there while you still can.

IN MARCO ISLAND, FLA. DEAR LEON: You are. There is no age limit on love. Love is love, whether you’re a teenager or an octogenarian, and if you’re lucky, even older than that.
