WASHINGTON (AP) — A decade of war will pass quietly at the White House this week. President Barack Obama plans no public events Friday to mark a moment the nation never really expected: 10 years of war in Afghanistan. Out of sight and off the minds of millions of Americans, the war is the most prolonged conflict this country has been engaged in since Vietnam. Obama has gone so far as to declare it “the longest war in American history.” The lack of attention to the 10-year milestone is driven in part by White House thinking that Obama has already helped lead a national reflection on a decade of costly sacSee WAR/Page 5A

Sept. 21 and taken to the Auglaize County Jail, where a bond of $100,000 was set and Kimpel was released after posting 10 percent of that amount or $10,000. If convicted, the sexual battery charge is punishable by up to five years in prison and/or $10,000 fine. Kimpel was indicted last week by a Shelby County grand jury on five counts of unauthorized use of the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway (OHLEG) program used by law enforcement for background checks. He allegedly used the system to run checks on people for personal reasons, not associated with his law enforcement duties. Kimpel appeared for arraignment Wednesday on the See KIMPEL/Page 4A

Shelby County Sheriff Dean A. Kimpel has temporarily stepped down from his duties in a move that was precedent setting, since it is reportedly the first time in the state of Ohio a sheriff has been suspended using an Ohio law. The Shelby County Commissioners were scheduled to meet in emergency session early today to name an interim replacement. Miami County Prosecutor Gary Nasal, who is special prosecutor in the Kimpel cases in Auglaize and Shelby counties, had filed a request with the Ohio Supreme Court and the Ohio Attorney General’s office, requesting Kimpel be suspended from office,
under Ohio Revised Code 3.16. Kimpel’s attorney, Michael Rumer, filed a document Thursday morning in Auglaize County Common Pleas Court in Wapakoneta consenting to his removal from office pending the outcome of a felony sexual battery case filed against him in that county. Kimpel was indicted by an Auglaize County grand jury on Sept. 20 on a felony sexual battery charge for allegedly having sex with former Deputy Jodi Van Fossen when she was intoxicated and unable to give consent. The sexual battery charge is a third-degree felony, which led to the suspension. Kimpel was arrested on the sexual battery charges on

Dale Keith Stump Sr. MARIETTA, Ga. — Dale Stump Keith Sr., 70, of Marietta, Ga., formerly of Piqua, went to be with his Lord at 11 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 3, 2011. He was born in Covington on April 4, 1941, to the late Clifford and Edna (Fessler) Stump. On June 27, 1969, in Piqua, he married Maxine J. Kerrigan. She preceded him in death on Aug. 24, 2009. Dale is survived by four daughters and sonsin-law, Kim and Gene Bondurant, of Atlanta, Ga., Lynne and Roger Bringmann, of Austin, Texas, Robin and Steve Whetzel, of Palmdale, Calif. and Beth Honaker, of Harrodsburg, Ky.; one son, Dustin “Dusty” Stump, of Columbus; one brother, Roger Stump, of Tipp City; and 12 grandchildren, Brooke, Blake and Blair Bondurant, Carrie, Johnathan, Angela, Zachary and Zoe Allison, Bringmann, Haven and Jenna Honaker and McKinley Keith Oliver Stump. He was preceded in death by one son, Dale K. “Chip” Stump Jr.; four sisters; and three brothers. Dale graduated from Covington High School in 1959. He remained close to many of his classmates. Dale valued their friendship more than words can express and looked forward to getting together with them as often as possible. He was a member of Piqua Baptist Church for many years. Dale was the Regional State Director for the National Child Safety providing Council, safety educational programs through law enforcement organizations to more than 200 school throughout systems Ohio for 30 years before retiring in 2002. He never felt this was work since he got to travel a great deal and made many wonderful friends. Dale was a self-proclaimed “auto racing aficionado.” He bought his first race car, a sportsman coupe, and began driving at age 28. Dale continued to drive from 1968 to 1973. He enjoyed what he classified as a “semi-successful” career. Dale was also a successful race car owner, hav-
ing owned three different cars winning and eight track championships. He sponsored and owned race cars over a span of 40 years. Dale took up driving again at the age of 51, but soon discovered that you lose all your reflexes as you get older. To quote Dale, “Auto racing is contagious once you’ve driven behind the wheel.” Some may not have been aware of his entrepreneurial endeavors owning several businesses (i.e. Little Pro Miniature Golf courses) and being a promotional manager for the Cincinnati Reds baseball and Cincinnati Bengals football teams in their off season, as well as, promoting the Harlem Globetrotter’s community fundraising events. He always liked sports in general, especially Cincinnati Reds baseball, participating in baseball and softball (Piqua Merchants) most of his adult life. Dale had the privilege of meeting many of the ballplayers he grew up watching and reading about. Two things Dale never got to do that were on his “bucket list” were learning to skydive and learning to fly a plane. He loved to travel all over the United States with his family including cruises to his favorite places such as Alaska, the Bahamas, and Hawaii. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. on Tuesday at Covington Church of the Brethren with the Rev. Michael Yingst officiating. This is the church where Dale grew up and had begun his walk with his Lord. Burial will follow in Highland Cemetery, Covington. Friends may call from 6 to 8 p.m. on Monday at MelcherFuneral Sowers Home, Piqua. Memorial contributions may be made to American Diabetes Association, Southwest Ohio/ Northern Kentucky Office, 8899 Brookside Avenue #2, West Chester, OH 45069. Condolences may be expressed to the family at www.melcher-sowers.com.

is to be appointed. A copy of the order is to be filed with the Ohio Supreme Court, according to Nasal, who spoke about his decision to request Kimpel’s suspension. “I believe that the alleged conduct was related to the administration of the office and that the interim suspension would be in everyone’s best interest,” Nasal said. “I don’t have a clue,” Nasal said, as to why Kimpel agreed to the suspension. “We filed the notice …. shortly thereafter, his (Kimpel’s) attorney notified me that he (Kimpel) would not be fighting the suspension. As a result, we drafted a consent agreement signed by all the parties and filed pursuant to statute.” If Kimpel is convicted, Nasal said, he will be required to pay back the salary he received during his suspension.”I would say this is the most serious offense I have ever brought against a public official,” Nasal said. Shelby County Prosecutor Ralph Bauer said that as part of the process, “the (Shelby County) Commissioners have to meet in open session and make a decision” regarding who will serve as interim sheriff. Bauer said there are

“two eligible candidates” for interim Sheriff and he said those candidates are John R. Lenhart, a Republican, who announced recently that he is running for Shelby County sheriff in the 2012 election and Scott A. Evans, a Democrat, who is considering running for sheriff. The commissioners were to meet in emergency session at 9 a.m. today to choose an interim Sheriff. “I hate to see it come to this, but I think it’s in the best interest of the county to move forward,” said Commissioner Julie Ehemann. Ehemann said both Lenhart and Evans were asked to be present for the emergency meeting and prepared for one of them to be sworn in “immediately.” Lt. Det. James Frye of the Shelby County Sheriff ’s Office said, “the sheriff is under suspension pursuant to an Auglaize County Common Pleas Court order. The office of s heriff will continue to function as usual protecting the citizens of Shelby County.”

commercial also includes a reference to the bill’s requirement that union workers will have to pay at least 10 percent toward their pensions. Jason Mauk, a spokesman for the “vote yes” campaign, said private sector employees are already paying more than 15 percent toward their health care on average. “The disparity between the public and private sectors, particularly in the area of health care, is financially unsustainable,” he said. “You have some government employees in Ohio who pay nothing for their health care and you have private sector employees who are paying on average between 25 and 31 percent. That’s an issue of fairness, and certainly an issue of affordability.” Melissa Fazekas, a spokeswoman for We Are Ohio, the campaign seeking to repeal Senate Bill 5, said health insurance contributions are just one small part of a voluminous, dangerous bill. “Issue 2 fundamentally takes away the colbargaining lective rights of hard-working Ohioans,” she said. “It is a flawed bill that is unfair and unsafe for firefighters, police officers, teachers, nurses and our communities.” Opponents of the bill emphasize that union contracts around the state contain salary and benefits packages that were bargained in good faith and should not be negated by the state legislation.

vember’s Issue 2 passes. School district employees — not only teachers, but janitors, bus drivers, cooks and others — are contributing 9.5 percent toward individual health insurance coverage and 11 percent toward family coverage on average, data show. City employees’ contributions average around 8 percent, while college and university employees’ contributions average about 13 percent. Ohio Education Association spokeswoman Michele Prater said the averages mask a trend toward unions agreeing to pay larger shares of their health care and pension costs around the state, often alongside a pay cut or freeze. In other words, half of Ohio’s 196,000 school district employees are already paying above the average for their sector, and half less. Prater pointed to suburban Columbus’ Southwestern Schools, where employees contribute between 28 percent to 35 percent toward health care and make $38,000 a year on average. Licking Valley Local Schools employees pay nearly 36 percent toward health insurance and make $31,000 a year on average, she said. The health care provision of Senate Bill 5, signed by Gov.

OHLEG charges and entered a not guilty plea. He was released on an own recognizance bond. If Kimpel is convicted, he faces up to 12 months in jail on each charge. According to Auglaize County Common Pleas Court documents, Kimpel’s consent to the suspension was filed with the Auglaize County Common Pleas Court Thursday morning at 8:07 a.m. and was signed by Judge Frederick Pepple. Under the suspension order, Kimpel is suspended until he “enters a plea of guilty to or is found guilty of the felony with which he is charged.” The order states that Kimpel will retain the title of Shelby County sheriff until his case is completed and he will continue to be paid while on suspension. If he is found innocent of the charges in Auglaize County, Kimpel would return to office. However, Nasal said he could file for another order of suspension if the Shelby County case has not been resolved. The order states that Kimpel, “shall not exercise any of the rights, powers, or responsibilities of the holding of that office.” Under the order, an interim sheriff

COLUMBUS (AP) — Employees of more than 550 school districts, townships and other government units across Ohio will see their share of health care costs rise if voters approve a collective bargaining law this fall, state data show. Widespread impact of the provision is fueling arguments on both sides. Supporters say having employees pay a bigger share of their health care costs will bring them in closer alignment with private sector workers and help balance local budgets. Opponents say the data validate that the unionlimiting bill will hurt tens of thousands of average workers around the state, who will be required by the law to spend more on benefits. An Associated Press review of data kept by the State Employment Relations Board finds that state workers and many county and health-district employees already pay more on average than the 15 percent share that will be required under the law. About 77,000 of Ohio’s 360,000 unionized government workers are in state and county government. Unionized township and fire district employees pay the lowest percentages toward health insurance on average, between 2.2 percent for employees of the smallest townships and 5.6 percent, the board’s data show. That means those employees would see the biggest jump in costs in their health care premiums if No-

Investigators have determined the cause of a fire which took place on Monday at an apartment building. According to the Sidney Fire and Emergency Services, the cause of the fire at 648 Fair Road was found to be the improper use of an extension cords. The main extension cord in use was overloaded and had several fixtures and appliances plugged into it by using several smaller extension cords. The unit was not occupied at the time of fire. The occupants above the fire at 648 1/2 Fair Road were first alerted to the fire by a smoke detector activating on the floor below them. In all, 17 people in nine families were displaced by the fire, including two children. The people impacted by the fire are Karen Mills, Scott Long, Bonnie Pohlschneider, Karen Garrett, Larry Lonise, Jonah Brown, Jyn Fox, Dale Pohlschneider, Kevin Cotterman, Andrew Cotterman, Brittney Waldroop, Betty Cotterman, Sam Waldroop, Mary Waldroop and Kelly Foster. The families are being assisted by the American Red Cross. According
to Soteria Brown, Regional Communications Special at the Red Cross, the families all found someplace to stay on their own. “We are helping with basic essentials like food and clothing,” said Brown. “The American Red Cross is always accepting donations and they can be made to disaster relief which helps during this type of situation.” Donations can be made at www.redcross.org or by calling 4926151. The fact that no one was injured in this fire reinforces the life-saving value of working smoke detectors, especially in residential settings. The fire happened 8:50 p.m. on Monday. Upon arrival crews found heavy smoke and fire with multiple apartments well involved. There were no injuries. Sidney firefighters along with firefighters from the Shelby Fire Department, Anna Fire Department, Port Jefferson Fire Department, Botkins Fire Department and Anna Rescue remained on the scene for several hours. There was $350,000 in damage to the structure and the contents and also $1,000 in smoke damage to a nearby house.

GOP choice: Romney or Perry WASHINGTON (AP) — The GOP presidential field apparently set, Republican primary voters are likely facing a choice between an experienced, establishment candidate in Mitt Romney and an insurgent presidential campaign novice in Rick Perry. With three months until voting begins, that’s the dynamic that’s starting to emerge now that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have said they won’t run for president in 2012. Their decisions — announced over the past two days — mean it’s all but certain that the Republican nominee will come from the current crop of candidates despite earlier hunger within the party for more options.
Sidney Daily News, Friday, October 7, 2011
A job is becoming dim memory for many unemployed WASHINGTON (AP) — For more Americans, being out of work has become a semi-permanent condition. Nearly one-third of the unemployed — nearly 4.5 million people — have had no job for a year or more. That’s a record high. Many are older workers who have found it especially hard to find jobs. And economists say their prospects won’t brighten much even after the economy starts to strengthen and hiring picks up. Even if they can find a job, it will likely pay far less than their old ones did. The outlook is unlikely to improve on Friday, when the government issues its monthly jobs report. Economists predict it will show that employers added a net 56,000 jobs in September. That’s far fewer than needed to reduce unemployment. The unemployment
rate is expected to remain 9.1 percent for a third straight month. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke last week called long-term unemployment a “national crisis” and said it should be one of Congress’ top priorities. When people are out of work for a year or more, their skills often decline. Their professional networks shrink. Companies hesitate to hire them. The problem feeds on itself. “It’s a serious threat,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics. “A growing proportion of the labor force is becoming disenfranchised.” Long-term unemployment sets this recession and weak recovery apart from any other period since the Great Depression. Though the economy has endured “jobless
recoveries” before, in no previous recovery has such a high proportion of the unemployed been out of work this long. Labor Department figures show that for roughly the past year and a half, one in three of the unemployed have been without a job for at least a year. That’s more than double the previous peak after the 1981-82 recession. Businesses would have to start hiring much faster before a larger proportion of the long-term unemployed would find work. Many employers see them as riskier than other potential hires. Some might need additional training. Companies aren’t likely to take such risks until the economy shows consistent strength. Brian Wedding, a roofing contractor based in Baton Rouge, La., acknowledges
Grandma found guilty FAIRFAX, Va. (AP) — A Virginia grandmother was convicted Thursday of first-degree murder and sentenced to 35 years in prison for tossing her 2year-old granddaughter from a pedestrian bridge at a shopping mall. Carmela dela Rosa threw Angelyn Ogdoc off a 45-foot-high skywalk like a “piece of trash” at Tysons Corner Center, the state’s largest mall, prosecutors said. It happened last November amid the busy holiday shopping season. “She was an angry, jealous and spiteful woman,” Commonwealth’s Attorney Ray Morrogh said. “There is no victim more innocent than a child, unable to defend herself.”
3-year-old was witness BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A 3-year-old child witnessed the killing of three people in a remote area of Montana’s Crow Indian Reservation and named a family member as the shooter, according to an FBI affidavit. Sheldon Bernard Chase, 22, was captured in Washington state and made an initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Cynthia Imbrogno in Spokane on Thursday. He was ordered held on three counts of first-degree murder in the killing of his grandmother, cousin and cousin’s boyfriend at their rural home on Tuesday. He faces life in prison if convicted. Chase, dressed in a yellow jumpsuit and wearing leg shackles, gave yes and no answers to a series of questions from the magistrate, and asked to be returned to Montana as soon as possible to face the charges.

that he spends more time evaluating job applicants who have been unemployed for long periods. “A flag’s going to come up, for sure,” says Wedding, CEO of Jasper Contractors, which employs about 800 at nine locations nationwide. “We’ll have to dig a little deeper into what’s going on.” Those who have been out of work for many months describe troubling experiences. Linda Evans, 59, a home health care worker in Washington, D.C., has struggled to find work since her last employer left the area three years ago. She applies for openings online and attends job fairs. But she’s found it difficult even to get interviews. “I don’t know if it’s my age or what,” she said. “I never expected to be in this situation. And I’m scared.”

PEDESTRIANS LOOK at notes for Steve Jobs to the outside of an Apple store in San Francisco, Thursday. Jobs, the Apple founder and former CEO who invented and masterfully marketed ever-sleeker gadgets that transformed everyday technology, from the personal computer to the iPod and iPhone, has died. He was 56.
Apple fans mourn Steve Jobs BY RACHEL METZ Steve Jobs was mourned around the world Thursday through the very devices he conceived: People held up pictures of candles on their iPads, reviewed his life on Macintosh computers and tapped out tributes on iPhones. One day after his death, two days after Apple introduced the latest incarnation of a touch-screen phone that touched pop culture, sadness and admiration poured out — not for a rock star, not for a religious figure, but for an American corporate executive. “He was a genius,” Rosario Hidalgo said outside an Apple Store on the Upper West Side of Manhattan while her daughter, 21-month-old Carlotta, used an iPhone to play an app that teaches children
to match animal sounds to animal pictures. By people who have grown up in a world where iPod headphones are as ubiquitous as wristwatches were to a previous generation, Jobs was remembered as their Elvis Presley or John Lennon. Perhaps even their Thomas Edison. “It’s like the end of the innovators,” said Scott Robbins, 34, who described himself as an Apple fan of 20 years and who rushed to an Apple Store in San Francisco when he heard the news. Apple announced Jobs’ death Wednesday night and remembered him as a “visionary and creative genius.” The company announced no cause of death, but Jobs had been diagnosed with a rare pancreatic cancer seven years ago and had a liver transplant in
2009. He was 56. On Thursday, the Apple website, which usually features slick presentations of multicolored iPods and everthinner MacBook laptop computers, simply displayed a black-and-white photo of Jobs, thumb and finger to his beard as if in contemplation. Around the world, tributes sprang up of the highest and lowest technology. In the Ginza shopping district of Tokyo, people held up iPhones and iPads, their screens facing outward and displaying sharply defined, touchable graphics of flickering candles. At an Apple Store in Hong Kong, old and new means of grief came together: People scribbled “RIP” and “We miss Steve” and longer notes of condolence on Post-It notes, and stuck them to an iPad display.
WAR rifice and battle. He did that on the recent anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001, the day when many people feel the war unforgettably began. Yet Obama’s handling of the new war milestone also underscores his interest in sticking to an economic message without distraction. Jobs, not war, matter most right now. What’s more, in military terms, analysts say a 10-year anniversary holds little significance compared with other markers. The main one is the end-of-2014 deadline Obama has set for withdrawal of most U.S. forces, along with the question of whether the United States will be able to leave Afghanistan stable enough politically to prevent a perilous collapse. It was on Oct. 7, 2001, that the United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan, seeking to end the rule of the radical Is-
NEW YORK (AP) — The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 183 points Thursday after the European Central Bank moved to support that region’s lenders and U.S. retailers reported stronger September sales. It was the third straight day of gains. The Dow has soared 468 points since Tuesday, or 4.4 percent. The European Central Bank promised to provide unlimited one-year loans to the region’s lenders through 2013. The goal is to shield banks from poorly functioning short-term credit markets, in which banks are becoming too worried about each other’s financial stability to lend money to one another. Germany’s DAX jumped 3.2 percent, and France’s CAC-40 rose 3.4 percent. The loans are also meant to help protect the banks in the event Greece’s government defaults on its debt. If that happens the value of Greek bonds held by those banks would be likely to drop sharply, weakening the banks’ balance sheets and making it harder for them to lend. The European Central Bank disappointed some investors by announcing that it would keep interest rates unchanged. Analysts were hoping the bank would cut rates to encourage lending and give a boost to Europe’s sagging economy.

Bush said to the country, “In the months ahead, our patience will be one of our strengths.” The nation, under Bush and Obama, saw its patience tested much longer than that. The American role in the war is now on pace to last at least 13 years. Put together, more than 2 million troops have been sent to Afghanistan and the war in Iraq, which began in 2003, including hundreds of thousands of troops who have served more than one tour. Nearly 4,500 U.S. troops have died in Iraq and about 1,700 in Afghanistan. Tens of thousands more have been wounded.
Obama moved to end the war in Iraq but initially expanded the one in Afghanistan, trying to regain control of the conflict he saw as central to American security. His focus was clear in June when he announced that, as promised, troops would begin withdrawing in July and that 33,000 troops will be home by next summer. It was time to focus on home, he said. Still, almost 70,000 troops will remain in a volatile country after that as the United States continues its withdrawal and its shift of security control to Afghan forces through 2014. “The tone of the whole speech was, ‘This war is effectively over and we’re gradually shutting it down,’” said Nora Bensahel, a senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security. “Since that is what the White House wants to signal to
the country, it doesn’t surprise me that the White House isn’t spending a lot of attention on the 10th anniversary.” In Afghanistan, the anniversary spurred peaceful demonstrations, with hundreds of people marching through the streets of Kabul Thursday demanding the withdrawal of international military forces. Obama is in an accelerating re-election fight in which Republicans have taken aim at his Afghanistan policy, but foreign policy is vastly overshadowed by economic concerns. A recent CBS News poll found that nearly 6 in 10 Americans say the United States should not be involved in Afghanistan, a sharp turnaround from as recently as two years ago, when a majority supported the U.S. mission there. Almost 7 in 10 people say the war has gone on longer than they expected.

It is a cold, 40-degree Monday morning. Yesterday morning it was even colder and it frosted in a lot of places. This will probably put the garden season for 2011 to an end. My back porch has red beets and peppers waiting to be canned. Friday we went to get apples and grapes at the local U-Pick farm. A lady in our church offered me use of her steamer to make the grape juice. I can now see how much easier it is to steam the grapes and can the concentrate, rather than use the method I had used before. We put two bushels of grapes into juice on Saturday using the steamer. I hope to get me a steamer before the next growing season. Husband Joe went back to work after a week at home due to not having work at the factory. Last week was a very rainy week so he didn’t get the garden tilled yet, being that it was too wet. He did get a lot of other odds and end jobs done around the house. The week being rainy, it was very difficult to get the laundry dried. We hung as much of it on our porch as we could. We don’t have our stove going yet so not having heat yet in the house clothes didn‘t dry very fast. Even on the porch the clothes did not dry well due to the dampness from the rain. We finally managed to get everything dry by Friday after we had washed everything on Tuesday.

Alzheimer’s walk looks for increase in attendance ANNA — Sue Althauser, of Anna, would like to see greater participation in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Sidney Saturday, but not for the reasons most people participate. “People get involved because the disease has affected their family,” she said. “People tend to respond (to the disease) rather than to anticipate that it would ever affect them.” The walk aims to raise awareness and to keep funds Alzheimer’s disease from affecting the additional millions it is projected to touch as the boomer population ages. The event is the 19th annual walk in Shelby County. It begins with registration at 9 a.m. at the Senior Center of Sidney and Shelby County, 304 S. West Ave. At 10 a.m., there will be an opening ceremony on the west side of the courtsquare in downtown Sidney. And then, walkers will circle the courthouse block for as many times as they wish. Teams and individuals will walk to support research, advocacy, and assistance which are by the provided Alzheimer’s Association Miami Valley Chapter. The chapter is based in Dayton and serves
Shelby and other area counties. Althauser will be among the walkers for the seventh time. Like most people, the walk became important to her when her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Although Marguerite Bagley is no longer alive, her daughter continues the annual practice to honor her. “My father was her Althauser caregiver,” said. But two years later, he had a stroke and then died. So it was a matter of getting (mom) closer to me to care for.” Althauser and her husMichael, the band, pastor of St. Jacob Lutheran Church in Anna, moved Bagley from the Columbus area to the Family Living unit at Dorothy Love Retirement Community in Sidney. “I had been going to them every weekend for two years,” she said. “My dad was 93. He couldn’t get her to take a shower, for instance. So the only time she bathed was when I would physically put her in the shower.” It was a rough time. “I didn’t sleep well there because I’d hear her walking around at night. I was afraid she’d go out the door. She didn’t know where she was.
She was thinking people were going to hurt her.” The move to Dorothy Love made life for the family physically easier, but it was still emotionally tough. “You have to watch them digress,” Althauser said. “And you have to lose them twice: when they get to where they
$16,000,” Presser said. “We ask each person to try to raise $100. If they do, they get a T-shirt. But anyone can walk whatever the size of the donation.” Following the walk, participants enjoy a lunch of hot dogs and chili at the senior center and they celebrate their
“Mom tapped my knee and said, ‘You know, I have a daughter just like you.’” Sue Althauser Participant in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s don’t recognize you and then the death.” According to the Alzheimer’s Association, the malady is the sixthleading cause of death in the U.S. Some 5.4 million people currently suffer from it and the number is expected to rise dramatically as the boomer generation ages. More than 1,000 people in Shelby County have Alzheimer’s. “Today, more than half of all Americans know someone with Alzheimer’s,” says the pamphlet promoting the walk. “Soon, no one will be left untouched.” Lu Ann Presser, of Sidney, and Sarah Beers, of Dayton, are co-chairmen of this year’s event. “Our goal is to raise
achievements. Althauser has headed a church team of 12 to 18 walkers each year. “We’ve had someone as young as 7 months go with us and people in their 60s, so it’s all ages. We have five people from one family who always walk with us. I have three new families this year because it’s affected them within the last year,” she said. The group raises money during the year with a golf outing and various other events. “One year, we did A Penny for Your Thought because ‘thought’ seemed appropriate when we were working for people who had no memory,” she said. They have hosted picnics and musical performances.
Groups seek APO/FPO addresses A group of Shelby County organizations has joined to celebrate Make a Difference Day by sending holiday care packages to all area servicemen and women who are overseas. The Shelby County Historical Society, Dorothy Love Retirement Community, AMVET Post 1986, American Legion Post 217, American Legion Auxiliary, Shelby County Libraries, Shelby County Veterans Services, VFW Post 4239, VFW Auxiliary, Lockington United Methodist Church, and the YMCA are collecting donations of items and funds to make the holiday brighter for people in uniform far from home and for veterans in the VA Hospital in Dayton. “We need APO and FPO addresses along with names,” said Tilda Phlipot, director of the historical society. “If a family has someone
they’d like us to send a package to, the family must send us the person’s name, APO/FPO address and the date the person is returning to the States. This information is due by Oct. 22.” Information can be mailed to Jodi Prater, 817 Fair Road, Sidney, OH 45365, or emailed to 1966@centurylink.net. The group has planned an evening of dancing to big band music and the performance of a variety show, called “The USO Show,” Oct. 22 at 7 p.m. at the American Legion Hall, 1265 Fourth Ave., to help in the collection of items for the care packages. Admission is four personal care items per person or a cash donation. Items also can be dropped off at the buildings of any of the participating organizations through Oct. 22. Lists of appropriate items have been distrib-

And the church foundation supports the team with a donation annually. “Our team goal this year is $2,500 and I think we’re going to reach it,” Althauser said. Her team enjoys hearing at the luncheon how other teams have done. are Announcements made about which team had the most participants and which raised the most money. “We cheer for each other,” Althauser said. “It’s very heartwarming to see other teams that have done well. The nice thing about the walk we show a presence in the community. You see a lot of the same people from one year to the next, so you know it’s still on their mind that something needs to be done.” To date, there is no cure for Alzheimer’s disease. There’s not even a test for it yet, according to Presser. So, much still needs to be done. Some of the money raised will continue to fund a local support group which Althauser found to be extremely helpful. “The support group makes you realize you’re not in this alone,” she said. “Agencies can help you — even to give you a
respite. You get helpful hints from people who’d been through it.” This busy grandmother worries sometimes that she, too, will ill with become Alzheimer’s. Research is vital. Until a cure or preventative measures are discovered, she knows that the number of walkers will grow. “I feel confident that as years go by, we’ll get more people, but it will be because they’re affected by it. It seems every year there are more people. It’s a shame that that’s what it takes to bring this thing into focus,” she said. Then she shared a remembrance of a heartbreaking moment of her own: “Mom had macular degeneration so she had lost all vision except peripherally. We took her to the campground and we were sitting together. She tapped my knee and said, ‘You know, I have a daughter just like you.’” The Walk to End Alzheimer’s aims to keep every other daughter — and son, husband, wife, brother, sister or friend — from ever having to hear similar words.

To the editor: On behalf of all the volunteers at FISH, I want to express my appreciation to everyone that supported our booth at the 2011 Applefest. It was a huge success as we sold out of all our baked goods. We will now be able to restock our food pantry; it was almost bare. There are many families in Shelby County suffering right now and we try to be there for them as much as possible. We appreciate Maureen Woodson and her staff at the Chamber of Commerce. They worked hard and put in many extra hours to make this a successful event. I think everyone that attended this festival had a wonderful time. Congratulations to Liz Goings for winning our quilt raffle. We are always looking for more volunteers to work in our store. If you are interested, please contact us at 492-1760. You can choose the day and hours you want to volunteer. We appreciate everyone that supports FISH! Becky Gillman FISH Chairwoman 1128 W. Michigan St.
a time when our country is $14 trillion in debt and when states are making hard choices to balance their budgets, this law is going to cause an explosion in health care spending never before seen. The federal government’s own actuary has predicted that government health care costs will represent 50 percent of all national health expenditures by 2020 and that health care spending in total will represent 20 percent of national GDP in that same year. This is unacceptable.
LETTER
TO THE EDITOR
Another case of dereliction of duty To the editor: The Associated Press reports (SDN, Sept. 24) that Obama is “allowing states to opt out” from the No Child Left Behind law. “At the White House,” the report stated, “the president said he was acting only because Congress wouldn’t.” Regardless of what one thinks of this law or its dubious constitutionality, O. has not cited any constitutional issue. This is simply another instance — we can’t say “latest,” because this is becoming an almost weekly occurrence — of the president’s derelictions of sworn duty/usurpations of power. Along with his attorney general, Eric Holder, he has made sport of picking and choosing among laws that he is sworn to uphold: immigration, Defense of Marriage Act, etc. Since Sept. 24, he may have found yet other areas in which to substitute his personal decrees.
Obama went on in his “announcement,” AP reported, to spell out his remaking of law: “It will allow states to scrap a key requirement that all children show they are proficient in reading and math by 2014 — if those states meet conditions such as imposing their own standards to prepare students for college and careers and setting evaluation standards for teachers and principals.” One supposes that all this detail was in the form of a written decree (“executive order”) substituting Obama law for congressional law. At least twice now, pandering to crowds, Obama has dangled the prospect of ignoring Congress and making his own laws — and been met with crowd approval. God help the republic if this guy is re-elected and no one will impeach him. Eric von Klinger 809-F Arrowhead Drive
To the editor: Our 25th anniversary of the Sensational Sounds band festival held Sept. 24 was a huge success due to many individuals pulling together and contributing toward a wonderful evening of high school band music. Neighboring high school bands joined us from Jackson Center, Wapakoneta, St. Henry, Wayne Trace, PandoraGilboa and Greenville. We appreciate the directors, their staff and band members for their hard work and the talent they displayed. Band parents and alumni band volunteers invest time in this event, which we appreciate. From startup to cleanup, our volunteer staff is second to none. Our night could not be complete without the help and creativity of our announcer, Bob. Lastly, we appreciate the spectators. It’s encouragement and spirit from moms, dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends that motivate and drive our children to succeed. Again, we appreciate all who donated and were involved with this year’s event. The Sidney Music Booster organization is looking forward to hosting Sidney’s 2012 Sensational Sounds Band Festival.

Incentive program encourages strong testing BY TERRY PELLMAN JACKSON CENTER — The Jackson Center School system has a new program to encourage pupils to strive for excellence in testing. The OAA Incentive Program presents an added benefit for students to do well on the Ohio Achievement Assessments, more commonly referred to as the state testing. Principal Jeff Reese explained that the program was created by the school administration as just one more tool in the ongoing effort faced by all Ohio schools to meet the ever-changing testing requirements. Reese was not aware of other schools with an identical incentive program but noted that schools have tried a variety of ideas to incentivize test performance. He explained, “I know every school, with what the test means and the grade card that comes out, every school is looking for any way they can to try and promote the students to work hard.”
YOUR
Reese added that the incentive program was just “…an extra push” for the effort. A portion of the principals’ fund was used to purchase the prizes. One exception was a laptop computer donated by Reliable Business Solutions, of Fort Loramie. Other prizes included a flat-screen television, a digital camera and shopping cards, among other items. Reese explained, “We tried to come up with ideas for things kids would use.” Reese said that no child won more than one prize in this first year of the incentive program, although it was possible. The principal said that overall feedback from the faculty was positive. There was not a large volume of feedback from parents, but Reese noted that what he did receive was positive in general. He hopes to see the effort continue. All students were entered into a drawing to win prizes. When a student passed a portion of the test, that name was
entered again, increasing chances of receiving a prize. Further success resulted in increased chances to win. Reading and science teacher Lora Clinehens, along with the rest of the faculty, assist students needing additional attention in various subjects. Clinehens noted that the ongoing preparation for state testing requires different ideas for maintaining student interest. She said, “It’s a challenge, but we do well.” She observed that the pupils found the chance for prizes added a great deal of enthusiasm and fun to getting ready for the state testing. She added, “They were excited about the thought of being able to win something.” The prize factor was discussed in class. In addition, the prizes were put on display in the school, resulting in increased student focus on the potential rewards for doing well in the testing process. Then, just before the tests were administered, the students were

reminded of the prizes. The results were announced in an assembly. Reese noted that students had talked about which prizes they intended to win, or what they would purchase if they received one of the shopping cards. He sees the program as another way to acknowledge the students for their hard work. The competition was made available to students in grades three through eight. Competition results were based upon tests taken last school year, with the results made available months later. The results were finalized during the first week of the current school year. One of the prizewinners was Morgan Dick-
man, now a freshman. She is the daughter of Scott and Jodi Dickman, of Maplewood. Dickman said the added competition and excitement among the students provided for a more interesting school year.
Dickman won a portable DVD player in the contest. Reese said he is proud of how the Jackson Center School is performing in the state testing. He added, “We’re still striving to get better.”

It’s a difficult task to be a single parent. Do all that you can to make this task a little easier for her. Start by telling Mom you love her. Even though she knows you do, she’ll be happy to hear it.

Does chiropractic care really make sense? Do you have the same nagging injury that never seems to go away? Are you suffering needlessly with pain? Are you fed up with taking painkillers? Do you want to find out what is causing your pain? If your answer is ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then chiropractic may be a solution for you. Typically, the chiropractic patient enters the office with some kind of pain. Back pain, neck pain, hip pain, leg pain, arm pain, shoulder pain, etc. comes in all different shapes and sizes. However, all of these pains share one common thread — they are all symptoms. Symptoms tell you that something in your body has gone wrong. They serve as a warning system to alert you of a deeper problem. Healing occurs regardless of the symptoms experienced. The quality of healing depends on the effectiveness of locating and addressing the cause. Many people in today’s society experience pain due to abnormal structure of the neuromusculoskeletal system. The neuromusculoskeletal system comprises the human frame
and posture. Abnormal postural structure not only predisposes the human body’s systems to abnormal function but may ultimately result in an injury or chronic condition. Altered alignment of the human frame may lead to poor healing and repair of the body tissues. These architectural and pathological changes may occur in
muscle, ligament, bone and central/peripheral nervous system. Chiropractic aims at therapeutically restoring these pathological deformations of the neuromusculoskeletal system and spine to allow for optimum function of the human frame and nervous system. Correct spinal mechanics and the health of the whole neuromuscu-
Chiropractic care for your child BY DR. JOHN KEEFE “Chiropractic care for my child? Why? His back doesn’t bother him.” How often chiropractors have encountered parents who appreciate the importance of regular checkups for their child’s teeth, hearing, eyes and ears but draw a blank when it comes to a spinal checkup. In fact, a spinal checkup could be one of the most important checkups your child will ever have. Your child’s spine is his/her lifeline because running through it is the spinal cord, containing billions of nerve fibers that send messages and energy from the brain to every part of their body. If there is blockage of any of the nerves along the spinal cord, any nerve damage at all, then a state of ” dis-ease” will develop. Dis-ease means dis-harmony in the body that will cause generalized weakening of your child’s body, lowered resistance to disease, and consequent body malfunction and sickness. Blockage of nerves in the spinal column are usually caused by tiny fixations and misalignments of the spinal vertebrae that are called vertebral subluxations. Only chiropractors are trained to detect and correct subluxations, much like only a dentist finds cavities. Subluxations can be caused by the birth process, the very physical childhood activities of running and jumping, falls and accidents. Because your children (and you) may have spinal subluxations and not know it, all children need periodic spinal checkups. There are however certain warning signs indicating that the spinal column may be out of alignment: one hip or shoulder is higher than the other, hyperactivity and can’t sit still, frequent falling, a foot turned in or out (foot flare), neck tilt, one leg shorter than the other, chronic fatigue, “noisy bones” or joint aches,
and skin conditions. Some other indicators are increased allergies, colds and flu, asthma and ear infections. A recent study of 332 children showed that chronic ear infection sufferers under chiropractic care had no more infections in 80 percent of the cases (Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics, Vol.2, No.2 1997). The Chiropractic Approach By releasing stress on the nervous system with very gentle and safe chiropractic adjustments, the body will work more effectively and be able to express better health. The nervous system controls EVERY function of the body (Gray’s Anatomy) and thus the nervous system when not interfered with by subluxations can enable the body to heal itself and be healthy. No matter what health concerns you or your children may have, you can benefit from a healthy spine. Spinal health can be as important for your overall healing as proper nutrition. Are you and your family carrying vertebral subluxations in your spines? A spinal
checkup can tell. Among the many things contributing to your health: the quality of the air, food and water you take in, how you handle stress, your inherited weaknesses, strengths and activity levels — a healthy spine is absolutely essential. In some people and children it is a major factor and can make the difference between a life of health, strength and vitality or a life of disease, weakness and disability. More and more families are finding that chiropractic care for their children makes a big difference in their health. Every day we see children in our office getting healthier as they receive adjustments, because their parents who saw benefits from chiropractic care for themselves wanted their children to have the same. One of the comments that we hear over and over again is “My child doesn’t seem to get sick as often since getting adjusted.” Why not include chiropractic spinal checkups for you and your children? It may be the best move for your family’s health you’ll ever make.
loskeletal system are interdependent. Therefore, chiropractic treatment focuses on restoring proper spinal mechanics which will, in turn, influence the function of the nervous system. Chiropractic rehabilitation enhances the healing process and assists the body in its efforts to heal itself by controlling the long-term degenerative changes in the human frame and posture. Care is based upon the human process of healing. The healing process is categorized into fairly distinct progressive stages. Conseconservative quently, chiropractic rehabilitative care flows with these stages. It is not the intention of this article to provide an in-depth review of rehabilitative chiropractic care and/or the healing process; rather, the purpose is to highlight some of the pertinent concepts in understanding how one can achieve better health through chiropractic care. Acute inflammatory stage This initial stage of response to injury lasts up to 72 hours. The goals
of care during this phase of healing are directed at reducing the reactive inflammatory response and eventual removal of debris from the tissues. Clinical management includes the use of chiropractic adjustments, ice, heat, gentle range of motion exercises and passive stretching. Repair stage The repair stage lasts from 72 hours up to 6 weeks and is characterized by the synthesis and deposition of collagen (scar formation) in an attempt to regenerate damaged tissue. During this stage the body’s main concern is the increase of the quantity of collagen to replaced damaged tissue. However, this new scar formation is not fully oriented in the right direction and is of a mechanically inferior quality. Clinical goals during this phase include freeing early adhesions and maintaining muscular tone and ligamentous integrity. Remodeling stage This stage lasts from 3 weeks to 12 months or more (depending on the severity of the injury), during which time the
collagen scar is remodeled to increase the function of the new tissue. The rehabilitative goals primarily involve improving the quality, orientation and strength of the collagen. This is accomplished by alignment of global body positions and posture, increasing functional capacity, reducing stress/strain on involved injured structures and management of disability. So, when does the healing occur? It starts immediately after the injury and can last for over a year depending on the severity of the injury and the action steps taken to help the body heal efficiently. Addressing an injury as early as possible using chiropractic care can result in the best possible scenario of full recovery. Addressing your chronic injuries now results in the return of a pain-free lifestyle, doing all the things you love to do.

Chiropractics heals a host of ailments naturally BY RAY LA FOY If you’re tired of taking a pill for every ache and pain, perhaps it’s time to consider chiropractic. This form of medicine relies more heavily on natural supplements and the body’s own ability to heal itself when the right adjustments are made. Finding a good chiropractor can be a task in and of itself, but there are literally thousands of them in America alone. The Internet can be a great tool for locating those in your area and finding those that come with high marks from past and present patients. Chiropractors adjust the body by putting the spine back into alignment, work muscles and help relieve tension and pain without resorting to heavy prescriptions, in most cases. Good chiropractors will do everything within their power to help patients avoid the use of unnecessary drugs and chemicals and even surgery but will admit when more “conventional” medicine can make a difference. Oftentimes, they work in conjunction with more mainstream doctors to ensure a patient’s overall health is in good hands. There are a number of
conditions that chiropractors can help with and some can seem a little surprising. But, considering the fact that the spine, muscles and nerves are greatly affected by most major illnesses, injuries and even minor afflictions, it should come as no surprise that chiropractic is beneficial for more than just stiff necks. This form of medicine is effective in treating everything from back pain and muscle weakness to headaches, colds and beyond. When the body’s bones and muscles are manipulated correctly a whole host of illnesses can be relieved and possibly even eliminated. A typical appointment will involve an assessment, muscle relaxation, adjustments and possibly even a massage or more, depending on the ailment. Finding a good chiropractor takes a little common sense. The Internet is a good tool to use for doing so. When looking for a doctor in your area, check into the following: What is the doctor’s background? Chiropractic is not quackery. Serious medical study and advanced degrees and licensing are required to practice this. Doctors should be licensed and members of
chiropractic boards. Check into any complaints filed against the doctor. Remember, that even the best doctors get an occasional black mark from a patient that quite likely no one could have made happy. Look for trends rather than oneinstance complaints. Does your insurance cover chiropractic? Most companies do cover at least a portion of treatments. Whether automobile policies following accidents or regular medical insurance, chiropractic is considered a viable alternative to regular medicine. Does the chiropractor accept your insurance? If not, check around for one that does. Is the chiropractor recommended by others? Friends? Family? Your physician? Find a doctor you can have trust in and you should be all set. By relying on the body’s own ability — with a bit of assistance — to mend itself when the kinks are worked out, chiropractic is a very viable option for treating a whole host of illnesses. Getting a reliable doctor is fairly simple, too, as long as a little bit of research goes into the search.

Should I say something to my dad or just chalk it up to a stressful day for all of us? — FEELING EX-
CLUDED IN OHIO DEAR FEELING EXCLUDED: Chalk it up to thoughtlessness on Simon’s part. You became “his” when he adopted you. What he was focused on at the wedding was the question of biological relatedness, and I’m sure he didn’t mean to slight you. Because this has troubled you enough to write to me, discuss it with your father and tell him how it made you feel, and give him a chance to explain. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Oct. 7, 1911 The last open air concert of the year by the Third Regiment Band on the square last evening brought out a large crowd not withstanding the threatening weather and tabernacle meetings. A special feature of the program was the vocal solo, with band accompaniment, by George Snyder of the Metropole Hotel, entitled “Down by the Old Mill Stream.” ––––– Constable W.E. Shinn arrested a third party charged with illegal voting in the recent local option election. The arrest was made yesterday in Urbana. Arraigned before Justice of the Peace Hess this morning, Ora C. Stokes entered a plea of guilty and was bound over to court on the sum of $100. In default of bond, he was sent to jail. ––––– The diversion of surplus water from Lake Loramie to Grand Reservoir is a possibility of the reasonably near future. The object is to add to the volume of water at the latter point with the overflow to be used by the Auglaize Power Co., which is in the process of constructing a building at Defiance. The watershed at Loramie is even larger than that surrounding the Grand. The recent rains have raised the water level three or four feet. At present time the surplus is allowed to overflow and waste. It is understood the enterprise is being financed by the company at Defiance.
75 years Oct. 7, 1936 Arrangements were completed at the meeting the K. of C. Hall last evening for the first rally and parade of the Holy Name Societies of the Sidney Deanery on Sunday. The Sidney High School band of 40 members will take part and the Minster Band will head the delegation from that community. Several other bands will probably be in line as well as the Holy Angels Drum and Bugle Corps. Frank Rohler, president of the local society, will be the Grand Marshal. The banner bearer will be Lewis Mackey, with Lawrence Meyer and Lawrence Lengerish the flag bearers. ––––– Bicycles stolen at Piqua recently and recovered at Piqua by police were identified and reclaimed by two Sidney boys taken to Piqua for that purpose by Shelby County Deputy Sheriff. One wheel was claimed by Terry Kerrigan and the other by Don Beery, police said. ––––– Louis Woodruff celebrated his 86th birthday today by going about his duties at the Monumental Building as if he were many years younger.
50 years Oct. 7, 1961 Selection of Dr. William A. Schroer, of Fort Loramie, as county chairman of the annual Christmas Seal Campaign, was announced today by officers of the Shelby County Tuberculosis and Health Association. Appointment of Dr. Schroer was announced by Emerson Koenig, president of the group. ––––– “This is it,” was the comment of Rev. R. Wobus when he announced today that this Sunday will see the close of his interim pastorate at the St. Paul’s United Church of Christ. The new pastor of the church, Rev. James T. Rubright, will arrive next week. For Rev. Wobus it marks the second time he has bid adieu to the congregation of the local church. The first time came on Nov. 1, 1946 when he retired after 36 years as pastor of St. Paul’s. ––––– Sally Jo McDowell and Grace Miller were elected as two of 13 Ohio Northern University students to the cheerleading squad. ––––– Miss Linda Garmhausen has pledged to Kappa Alpha Theta sorority at Miami University, Oxford.
25 years Oct. 7, 1986 Katie Horstman was presented with a silver cup from Sports Illustrated magazine. She was selected to be honored in the Sept. 8th edition of the magazine after being named National Coach of the Year by the National High School Association. The award was present at the Minster Civic Association to Miss Horstman by Dr. Halver Belcher, Minster superintendent. ––––– The Minister Kiwanis Club presented new playground equipment to the elementary school. Catherine Bernhold accepted the donation of $3,000 from the Kiwanis Club toward the total cost of $12,500 for the equipment. The playground equipment offers youngsters a wide variety of activities. ––––– Mary Lorton was treated to a “This Is Your Life” program during a surprise party held at the Holiday Inn in honor of Mrs. Lorton’s recent retirement from the Sidney City School. She worked for the school system for 31 years, with the last 19 years at the school service center.

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 and eventually fake bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western Union branches are trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable. If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office at (800)282-0515.

Warren Ball, a 2012 Ohio State verbal commitment, carried 27 times for 171 yards and two touchdowns in Columbus DeSales’ 27-10 win over Columbus St. Charles last Friday. Roger Lewis, of Pickerington Central, and Najee Murray, of Steubenville, both 2012 OSU commitments, returned kickoffs for touchdowns last weekend. Lewis went 98 yards and Murray went 95 yards. Jalin Marshall, a quarterback from Middletown in the 2013 recruiting class who is interested in Ohio State, rushed for 226 yards and had touch— Ohio State president E.

Ohio State at Nebraska, 8 p.m., Saturday, ABC QUARTERBACKS >
RECEIVERS
Freshman Braxton Miller remains Ohio State’s starting quarterback despite being replaced by his backup Joe Bauserman for the entire fourth quarter of a 10-7 loss to Michigan State last week. The question, though, is if Miller, Bauserman or any of OSU’s quarterbacks are ready to be the starter. Nebraska’s Taylor Martinez is a double threat quarterback, who sometimes can be a threat to his own team’s fortunes. He has passed for 823 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 482 yards. Ohio State coach Luke Fickell says he might be the fastest player the Cornhuskers have. But his problem has been turnovers. He has five interceptions, including three in a span of seven plays during a 48-17 loss to Wisconsin last Saturday. Advantage: Nebraska
Just when it looked like some help was on the way, Ohio State lost DeVier Posey for at least another game because of an additional suspension and Verlon Reed is gone for the season with a torn ACL. That could mean more playing time for freshman Evan Spencer, who has caught two touchdown passes in limited action. Tight end Jake Stoneburner leads Ohio State with 10 catches. Reed had nine catches and freshmen Devin Smith has eight catches, three of them for touchdowns. Like Ohio State, Nebraska has no receiver with glittering statistics. True freshman Jamal Turner leads the Cornhuskers with 13 catches. Advantage: Even
OFFENSIVE LINE > After giving up nine quarterback sacks and being called for three false start penalties against Michigan State, there is no way to go but up for OSU’s offensive line. All-Big Ten tackle Mike Adams returns from a five-game suspension, which should help but won’t fix everything. Nebraska center Mike Caputo and guard Spencer Long stay on the field most of the game while six other linemen rotate at the other three positions. The Cornhuskers are second in the Big Ten in rushing yards per game (249.8) and third in scoring (37.6). Advantage: Nebraska .
DEFENSIVE LINE >
If Nathan Williams returns this week from arthroscopic knee surgery would be a surprise. His absence leaves Ohio State without a dynamic pass rusher. Despite all the despair over how OSU played last week, the defense limited Michigan State to 71 yards rushing. Jared Crick, a defensive tackle projected as a firstround NFL draft choice, leads Nebraska’s line. Baker Steinkuhler and Cameron Meredith are also three-year starters. Despite the presence of all those veterans, Nebraska’s pass rush has been unimpressive much of the time without the help of a blitz. Advantage: Nebraska
LINEBACKERS Andrew Sweat had a personal season-high 10 tackles in the Michigan State game, but that was more than the other two starting linebackers, Storm Klein and Etienne Sabino, combined to get. Lavonte David set a Nebraska record with 152 tackles and was a secondteam All-American last season. He leads the Cornhuskers in tackles (45) and tackles for losses (5) this year, but hasn’t had a lot of help. Advantage: Even
< DEFENSIVE BACKS JOHNATHAN HANKINS The 6-foot-3, 335-pound sophomore from Dearborn Heights, Mich., is one of the key players on Ohio State’s defensive line. Hankins has 21 tackles, third on the team, and has three tackles for losses and a sack.
RUNNING BACKS > Jordan Hall’s run as Ohio State’s No. 1 tailback will last at least one more game with the extension of Dan Herron’s suspension. He is averaging 72 yards a game the last three weeks after serving a two-game suspension of his own. Nebraska’s 5-11, 210-pound running back Rex Burkhead’s hardnosed style has earned him the label of being a “throwback.” He has gained 516 yards and scored eight touchdowns. He and Martinez both average 16 carries a game. Advantage: Nebraska

C.J. Barnett and Bradley Roby intercepted passes and OSU’s secondary made Michigan State’s Kirk Cousins look a little tentative for much of last week’s game. Roby and Barnett lead Ohio State with two interceptions each. Nebraska changed starters at three positions in its defensive backfield for the Wisconsin game because it was unhappy with how it was struggling to contain the opposition’s passing game. How did that work? The Badgers’ quarterback Russell Wilson passed for 255 yards and two touchdowns. Standout cornerback Alfonzo Dennard missed three games earlier in the season, Only Minnesota is giving up more points per game in the Big Ten than Nebraska (27.2). Advantage: Ohio State
SPECIAL TEAMS > OSU’s Drew Basil is 5 of 7 on field goals and punter Ben Buchanan is averaging 41.4 yards per kick. Nebraska kicker Brett Maher is 9 of 11 on field goals and both of his misses have been from 50 yards. He also made a 50-yarder. He also punts and is averaging 47.9 yards per kick. Twelve of his 33 kickoffs have been touchbacks. Advantage: Nebraska

The Lima News jnaveau@limanews.com 419-993-2087
OSU keeps reliving the past COLUMBUS -- Wow. Another press conference. What was that when Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith announced more suspensions for football players on Monday? Was it the third time he’s done that in the last few months? The sixth? It feels more like the sixteenth. When OSU and Smith first announced the suspensions of five players for trading memorabilia for tattoos and money in December, they said they had investigated the situation and there were no further violations. Then three more players were found to have taken money from a booster at a charity event and were suspended. Now three different players won’t play at Nebraska on Saturday night because they received money for work they didn’t do. And that money came from the same booster who doled out cash at the charity event. A booster who has provided part-time jobs for Ohio State football players for years. So who knows where that’s going to lead. Ohio State’s assurances are like your lawn service telling you they’ve taken care of the dandelions in your yard and there are no further problems. Then two weeks later, toad stools pop up. Then, after they tell you that’s the last of your issues, in another two weeks you find thistles scattered throughout your lawn. Hearing that college football players got cushy part-time jobs from a booster is about as suprising as learning that beer is often sold near college campuses. However, let’s not invoke the “everybody is doing it” excuse. Maybe the most unsettling thing about the latest violations at Ohio State is that two of players suspended on Monday, DeVier Posey and Dan Herron, were already suspended for breaking NCAA rules when they did it again. Smith tried to assure Ohio State fans that these violations were the actions of rogue individuals. But when you’re dealing with repeat offenders, you wonder why every financial transaction they made, every step they took wasn’t under the microscope.

Lehman golfers win Loramie girls D-II district crown win in County, stay in lead BY ROB KISER Ohio Community Media
WEST MIDDLETOWN — His birdie putt on the final hole was just the icing on the cake. The smile on Ben Thieman and the rest of the Lehman’s golf team’s faces told the story as much as the Division II Southwest District golf championship trophy they were holding in the clubhouse at Weatherwax Golf Course Thursday. One year removed from one of the most bizarre finishes in history of the district golf tournament, Thieman’s final birdie putt finished off a 332 total for Lehman, one stroke better than second-place Middletown Christian. A year ago, Lehman was one of three teams to shoot the low score in Division II. Because the other two won the fifth-man tiebreaker, the Cavaliers did not get to go to state — although Thieman went as an individual, something he had described as a bittersweet experience. Thursday, was a different story. “It feels completely different from last year,” Thieman said with a smile. “Last year, the team really struggled at the end. Today, everybody played great. Tyler (Bergman) and John (Copella) both shot great rounds and Sam (Dean) and Mitchell (Shroyer) were solid. That (96) is not that bad down here.” Lehman got off to a torrid start on the Meadows nine, with Thieman and Bergman both carding even-par 36s and Copella adding a 39 to give Lehman and eight-shot lead at the turn, before they played the Valley View nine. The lead would hold up as Thieman and Bergman finished with 78s and Copella added an 80. Dean and Shroyer both carded 96s. “On the first nine, I hit the ball a lot better (than sectionals),” Thieman said. “I struggled a little bit on the back.” Bergman, like Thieman a senior, got off to a hot start. “I wasn’t expecting that at all,” he said about the 36. “I just tried to hold it together on the back. This feels great because I contributed. Two years ago, I played on the team that went to state, but

The Cavs won the district title to advance to the state tournament. my score didn’t count.” Lehman coach Elmer Schlater was not surprised by what he got from his “big three”. “I told those guys they needed to come through,” he said. “They are the upperclassmen and they all played great. And Mitchell (Shroyer) and Sam (Dean) both were solid for us.” And, while it couldn’t have known it at the time, it would be a 12-foot birdie putt by Thieman on the par-5 ninth on the Valley View nine to close the round that would be the difference in first and second. “We can go ahead and say I knew I needed to make it for the win,” Thieman said with a laugh. “Actually, I did think it was a pretty important putt. I knew it was tight. I hit a wedge in from 100 yards to about 12 feet. I thought it was a putt I could make and I did.” Lehman will return to the Ohio State University Scarlet course next Friday and Saturday. “I really did have a good
feeling about today,” Thieman said. The birdie putt was just the icing on the cake. Russia got off to a tough start on the front nine and shot 350 to finish sixth. Corey Bremigan just missed qualifying as an individual, following a 44 on Valley View with a 37 on Meadows for 81. Botkins also competed and finished with a 380. Nate Cisco led the Trojans with an 89, Connor Bornhorst shot a 92, Adam Bornhorst 96 and Cory Kies 103. Other Russia scores were Treg Francis 84, Bryce Dues 91, Eli Puthoff 94, Austin Tebbe 96. Versailles finished an outstanding season in the Division II district tournament. The Tigers finished in the middle of 12-team field with a 337. Versailles scores included Trevor Phlipot 83, Aaron Niekamp 83, Jake Ahrens 85, Tyler Drees 86, Brandon Groff 86.
Fort Loramie stayed in first place in the County volleyball standings with a 25-12, 25-12, 25-10 win over Houston in action Thursday. The Lady Redskins go to 91 in the league. “I was very happy with our play,” said Loramie coach John Rodgers. “We kept our tempo through the match and that’s something we’ve struggled with.” Kelly Turner had eight kills, Meghan Bruns eight digs and seven aces, Julie Hoying 21 assists and Darian Rose four aces. For Houston, Nicole Maier had nine assists. Loramie won the Junior varsity game 25-12, 25-16. • Jackson Center beat Botkins 25-6, 25-6, 25-15 to go to 8-3 in the league. Botkins is 1-9. For Jackson, Ann Frieders had 26 assists, Brooke Richard 10 kills, Brittany Foster nine kills, Nicole Weddle eight kills and Haley Elchert hree aces.

Kalyn Schroer had 32 digs, Lehman 24, and Reineke 20. The JV team lost in two.
Tiger’s struggles continue SAN MARTIN, Calif. (AP) — Anyone expecting a new and improved version of Tiger Woods saw much of the same old thing Thursday. An early birdie to raise hopes. A sudden tumble. And he couldn’t make a putt. In his first tournament in seven weeks, Woods went 13 holes between his only two birdies at the Frys.com Open and had a 2-over 73 that put him in danger of missing consecutive cuts for the first time in his career. “That’s probably one of the worst putting rounds I’ve ever
had,” Woods said. “I can’t putt the ball any worse than I did today.” Texas Open winner Brendan Steele opened with a 4under 67 on a cool day at CordeValle with a few bursts of showers. He was joined in the lead by Briny Baird, Garrett Willis and Matt Bettencourt. Woods fell out of the top 50 in the world ranking this week for the first time in 15 years, and it showed. Woods was tied for 86th, although he was still only one shot out of the top 70 and ties that advance to the weekend.
Lady Rockets shut out Botkins ANNA — Anna’s girls bounced back fron only their second loss of the season Monday against Troy Christian to handle county rival Botkins 20 in action here Thursday night. The win puts Anna at 12-2 on the year. Anna got one goal in each half. In the first half, Kyleigh Overbey scored off an assist by Lacey Poeppelman. And in the second half, Kayla Blankenship scored off an assist from Rachel Christman. Anna outshot the Lady Trojans 27-1.
Boys Jackets fall 6-0 Sidney took on a team considered one of the best in the nation Thursday when they traveled to Beavercreek for a Greater Western Ohio Conference crossover contest. The Jackets came out on the short end of a 6-0 score, and can now turn their attention to a big game Tuesday at home against Troy. A win will clinch a fifth straight GWOC North championship. “Beavercreek is by far the
best team we’ve played this season,” said Sidney head coach Eric Harlamert. “They’re ranked No. 2 in the state and No. 28 in the nation.” The loss dropped the Yellow Jackets to 5-7-2 on the year. The Beavers go to 13-0-1 this season.
Cavs lose to F-M Lehman dropped to 4-8-2 on the year after losing to a good Franklin-Monroe team earlier this week, 2-0. F-M goes to 10-2 on the year. The two teams battled on even terms, with the Jets only outshooting Lehman by an 86 margin. “It was a hard-fought game,” said Lehman coach Roger Toon. “Even though we lost, it was our best effort this year. We hever gave up and never gave in. We held a very tough opponent to two goals and just eight shots. We possessed well in the midfield. We just could not find the finishing touch.

SIDNEY’S KAITLYN Wolfe clears the ball in high school girls soccer action against Piqua Wednesday night at the high school. Wolfe scored one goal in a big 5-2 win for the Lady Jackets.
Both SHS soccer teams closing in on North titles Lady Jackets post key win over Piqua, 5-2 An interesting situation has developed in boys and girls soccer at Sidney High School, with both teams in line to win Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division championships. The Lady Jackets posted a big win over archrival Piqua Wednesday at the high school, breaking away from a 22 score to win 5-2 and remain unbeaten in North action at 3-0-0. They are now 8-3-2 overall. Sidney is tied with Troy for the league lead in the girls standings, and the two will meet at Troy on Wednesday for sole possession of the top spot. For Sidney, a win over Troy would seem to clinch an outright title, since its only remaining game is against Trotwood, which hasn’t won in league play. Troy still has its biggest rival, Piqua, remaining after next week’s game. The Sidney High boys, meanwhile, are in excellent shape in the North standings, holding down

first place by themselves at 3-0-0. They, too, will meet Troy next week, this one at Sidney, and a win would all but wrap up a fifth consecutive North crown for the Jackets, since the only league opponent remaining after Troy is winless Trotwood. And since the Jackets only have Trotwood left after the Troy game, it’s probably safe to say that Sidney has already clinched at least a share of the division crown. As for the Lady Jack-
ets’ latest win, it was an impressive one. “Everybody talks about how goood Piqua’s goalie is, but I thought Carolyn VanMatre got the better of it (Wednesday),” said Sidney coach Stacey Goffena. “She had 11 saves and played outstandings, as did our whole defense.” Sidney jumped to a 20 lead on goals by Monique Hanayik and Taylor Rickert. Hanayik’s came on an assist from Rickert off a corner kick, and Rickert’s came on a direct kick. Piqua scored just before the half, then got the first goal of the second half to knot the score at 1-1. But Sidney took thelead when Piqua was called for a handball in the box and Kaitlyn Wolfe converted the penalty kick for a 3-2 lead. Morgan Knasel and Tina Echemann added goals for the Lady Jackets. Lauren Elmore, Hanayik and Echemann had assists.
COLDWATER — Coldwater’s girls beat out Versailles and Minster for the team title in the annual Coldwater Invitational Thursday night. The Lady Cav had 44 to 72 for Versailles and 75 for Minster.

Lincecum named in suit SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The former landlord for Giants ace Tim Lincecum has filed a lawsuit against the pitcher seeking $350,000 in damages, claiming the two-time NL Cy Young Award-winner stole and destroyed items in the San Francisco apartment he rented. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in San Francisco Superior Court by Mindy Freile. She alleges that after Lincecum's lease expired, he returned to living in the apartment and "broke, stained, defaced, tore, injured or destroyed" her property. The lawsuit also claims that Lincecum failed to pay rent on time and stole and destroyed his landlord's personal property and papers.

Sidney woman recalls work as nurse in aftermath of 9/11 Leffler helped victims’ families in New York One of the items in the exhibit of artifacts on view in “How 9/11 Changed Our Lives Forever,” the current exhibit at the Shelby County Historical Society’s Ross Historical Center, is a child’s drawing of people jumping out of the windows of the World Trade Center. The drawing belongs to Sidney resiLeffler dent Carole Leffler, who saved it, along with some other items, as a memento of the three weeks she spent in New York City in the fall of 2001. She was there in the immediate aftermath of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. As a Red Cross nurse, she was responsible for coordinating health services in a building that came to be known as the Family Assistance Center at Pier 94. “The attacks happened on a Tuesday,” she said recently. “On Friday, (then) Mayor (Rudolph) Giuliani had a meeting with other officials about how to deal with the crisis. They decided to use this warehouse near Pier 94 as an assistance center. It was the size of four football fields.”
Warehouse transformed The warehouse was full of “wares.” But by Monday, they had all been removed. The building had been carpeted, had room dividers and phones and computers in each room. It had all happened in one weekend. Pier 94 was where families went to register for financial assistance, to take DNA samples from their missing loved ones’ hairbrushes to help in the identification of remains, to change the Social Security status of their relatives who were victims of the tragedy. “All the insurance companies had offices there,” Leffler said. “It was a onestop shop.” The center also provided first aid services to police, firefighters and other public servants in the area. Located near 42nd Street, it was more than 40 blocks from ground zero. But it served many thousands of people each day. “We went through shoe pads like you wouldn’t believe,” Leffler said, “because their feet would hurt.” There were also two restaurants in the building. One served families of victims. The other served workers. They fed 2,000 to 3,000 people per day. And every day, there were drawings on the tables, drawings created by children nationwide at the urging of school art teachers who encouraged them to put onto paper their feelings about what had happened in New York City. Leffler’s is one of those drawings.

vided first aid to them, too, but we did it with mobile units. They couldn’t come inside.” Her work at Pier 94 turned out to be her final Red Cross volunteer assignment because her boss in Dayton refused to let her leave her post as a supervisor there again. Among the other disasters at which she had assisted were Hurricane Andrew and the Los Angeles Northridge earthquake. And she taught classes in disaster health services and disaster mental health at the Northwestern University branch near Toledo, at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and other places for the Red Cross. Now retired and living in Sidney again, health problems prevent her from helping again. “My heart wants to go with them, but my body can’t,” she said.

Deadline Monday to register for test at SHS
Saving 10% Financial expert Jean Chatzky reveals how to spend less without getting less.
The Preliminary SAT will be administered to participating juniors, sophomores and freshmen at Sidney High School on Wednesday. “The PSAT test is quickly approaching and we wanted parents and students to be aware of this opportunity,” said Sidney High School guidance counselor Barb Kerr. “This is typically a jun-
ior class test, and it is only junior scores that may qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition. However, this year we are again offering the test to any freshman or sophomore student who would like to take the test for practice.” All participating students will get feedback on their academic skills in critical
reading, math reasoning and writing. They will also receive specific suggestions on how to improve their skills and how their scores compare with those of other college-bound students, according to Kerr. “Students also get information about college majors and careers,” she continued. “It is a valuable test for any
student planning on attending college after high school.” Students may register for the PSAT in the Sidney High School main office. The cost for the test is $14. Deadline for registration is Monday. For more information, contact Kerr at the Sidney High School guidance department at 494-2080.
