Senate rivals debate Candidates take jabs at each other BY JULIE CARR SMYTH The Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — The second debate in Ohio’s hotly contested U.S. Senate debate turned almost vitriolic, as Republican challenger Josh Mandel called U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown a liar and Brown said Mandel can’t be trusted.
The tenor of the televised debate in Columbus mirrored the barrage of negative TV ads that have marked a race that is one of the most expensive in the nation. Mandel, the 35-year-old state treasurer, called the 2008 bailout spearheaded under then-GOP President George Bush “fiscally irresponsible and
morally wrong” and said he would not support similar moves if elected. Brown, 59, criticized Mandel for failing to support the auto bailout that was connected to 800,000 Ohio jobs and for wanting to privatize Medicare. Mandel at one point urged viewers of the Columbus debate to “type in Google See DEBATE/Page 4

Rocket Club to assist NASA MINSTER — The Minster Rocket Club at Minster Junior/Senior High School has been chosen to participate in NASA’s 12-13 Student Launch Initiative (SLI). The students, with the assistance of NASA engineers, will build and launch a 10-foot rocket at least 1 mile into the air. The rocket must carry a
science experiment that will deploy at that 1-mile mark and return safely to earth. The Rocket Club was invited to submit a proposal after they took 12th place in the National Team America Rocketry Challenge last spring. When the students returned to school in late August, they learned they had
little more than a week to develop a proposal to send to NASA. They dug right in, and 80 pages later, a plan was sent to NASA for a rocket that would measure the cellular growth of microbial yeast organisms in micro gravity. On Sept. 27, the students learned their proposal was acSee NASA/Page 3
NEW YORK (AP) — President Barack Obama on Thursday rejected criticism that his administration has offered a confused response to the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya, an accusation made repeatedly by Republican challenger Mitt Romney in their campaign for the White House. Of any breakdown that might have led to the killing of four Americans, Obama declared: “We’re going to fix it.” On a campaign day where the politics of comedy were to flavor the presidential race, Comedy Central host Jon Stewart got serious in pressing Obama over the government’s changing explanation about the Sept. 11 attacks in Benghazi.

Farmer’s Market called success Sidney’s Great Farmer’s Market ended another successful season on Saturday, organizers said. Maureen Smelewski, Downtown Business Association director, said the decision to open the market in May and remain open until the second weekend in October came after a long discussion during a planning session attended by a number of seasonal vendors. “The new dates will continue in 2013, with opening day being the last Saturday in May,” she said. Vendors with locally grown produce, baked goods, jams, jellies, crafts, homemade soaps, handmade jewelry, plants, flowers and cornhole boards and bags came early every Saturday morning from all over the Miami Valley. “The year welcomed 33 seasonal vendors that participated weekly, seven to 10 vendors who came various Saturday’s throughout the season and 32 that participated in the 2012 Applefest event,” Smelewski said. Numerous clubs, churches and organizations also took part in this year’s farmer’s market. Rainbow Gardeners, OSU Alumni, FISH, multiple Relay-forLife teams, and various school booster groups set-up and helped raise money for their organizations. “In June we were happy to partner with the Sidney Civic Band for a free concert during the market,” the director said. “It was a great treat for both the vendors and those visiting the market. It took a few tries to get a Saturday morning without a rain threat, but when the weather did cooperate, we all benefited. “This being the first complete season for which we were responsible made it a new challenge, but good communication by keeping the vendors a part of the discussion-making process helped make it a successful year for the vendors. The best part about my job is building the relationships and seeing everyone on a weekly basis. We have had a great season.” She said she is looking forward to 2013 with new ideas in both entertainment and marketing. To learn more about the Great Sidney Farmer’s Market, contact Smelewski at Sidney-Shelby County Chamber of Commerce offices, 101 S. Ohio Ave., second floor, or call 492-9122. Area residents can also visit the downtown website at www.downtownsidney.com in early 2013 for the dates, rules and information regarding farmer’s market.

New way to draw political maps on Nov. 6 ballot COLUMBUS (AP) — Ohio voters next month will decide whether the state should move forward with a proposal to change the process for redrawing its political districts. Debate over Issue 2 has been contentious. It proposes a 12-member commission of state residents to re-draw Ohio’s legislative and congressional maps every 10 years. Currently, the state Legislature draws the U.S. House districts, and the five-member state board apportionment draws legislative districts. The governor, secretary of state, auditor and two legislative appointees make up the apportionment board. There’s broad agreement that Ohio’s system needs repair, but considdisagreement erable about whether Issue 2 offers the right fix. Voters First, which supports the plan, argues that there’s too much self-interest in the current process. “This is a very simple plan. It ends the corrupt system we have today that lets politicians design their own districts,” said Sandy Theis, a spokeswoman for the labor-backed coalition. “It will take that power away from them and give it to an independent citizens’ commission that would have to do all its business in public.” The first nine members of the commission would be selected by lottery from 42 applicants placed into Republican, Democratic and unaffiliated pools by a panel of appeals court judges. The first nine members selected would pick the other three. Protect Your Vote Ohio, the opposition campaign, says the lengthy constitutional amend-
Proposed changes to redistricting system Here’s how Issue 2 on the Nov. 6 ballot would change Ohio’s system of drawing political maps: CURRENT PROCESS: • FOR OHIO GENERAL ASSEMBLY: Ohio’s legislative districts — 33 for the Ohio Senate, 99 for the Ohio House — are drawn every 10 years by the Ohio Apportionment Board. It’s a 5-member panel made up of the governor, secretary of state, state auditor, an appointee of the House Speaker and the Senate leader of the same party, and an appointee of the House and Senate leaders of the other party. • FOR U.S. HOUSE: Ohio’s congressional districts — 16 at last count — are drawn by the Ohio General Assembly. A legislative panel oversees the creation of a map, which must be approved by majorities of the Ohio House and Ohio Senate and signed by the governor. As legislation, the redistricting plan is subject to repeal by voters as well as legal challenge. PROPOSED PROCESS: • FOR BOTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY AND U.S. HOUSE: A 12-member commission of state residents would be named to a 10-year term and draw both maps. The Chief Justice would pick by lottery a panel of eight appellate judges to select 42 finalists from applications: 14 Republicans, 14 Democrats and 14 unaffiliated. Legislative leaders of both parties could eliminate up to three names from each pool. Three names would be drawn from each pool by lottery. Those nine would select the remaining three, one from each pool. The amendment requires the commission’s business to be done in public and sets certain parameters for the maps to be representative, diverse, fair and respectful of communities. It makes no provision for removing commissioners. The Ohio Supreme Court would hear challenges. ment is rife with risky unknowns. It closely resembles a commission that California voters approved in 2010. “While you have a process (in Ohio) now that’s accountable to taxpayers because it’s conducted by elected officials, voters would have no recourse in terms of holding these commissioners accountable or for repealing their decisions,” said Carlo spokesman LoParo. Opponents believe unaffiliated commissioners would be particularly susceptible to political pressure at map-drawing
time. The Ohio State Bar Association and Ohio Judicial Conference oppose the issue out of concern that appellate judges also would be vulnerable to political pressure. Theis said the concern is misplaced. “There have been dozens of the state’s top legal and constitutional scholars who signed an open letter that explained that OSBA’s concerns are totally misguided,” she said. “They’ve done a great disservice because they’ve entered the political arena and peddled inaccurate information.” The feud between the
two sides has carried over to the Ohio Elections Commission and the state Ballot Board, pitting its largely Democratic backers against largely Republican opponents. Republicans have drawn Ohio’s U.S. House maps for 20 years, and its legislative maps for 30. Opponents include the Ohio Republican Party, Ohio Chamber of Commerce, Ohio Right to Life and state associations of CPAs, retail merchants, and farmers. Supporters include the League of Women Voters, NAACP, ProgressOhio, Ohio Citizen Action, Planned Parenthood and the Ohio Council of Churches. Another ballot issue, called Issue 1, asks voters whether they’d like to call a convention to “revise, alter, or amend” the Ohio Constitution. Such a convention would include discussion of redistricting and term limits and a cleanup of existing constitutional language, among other tasks. The state’s governing document emerged from the state’s first constitutional convention in Chillicothe in 1802. It was revisited at conventions in 1851 and 1912. Under state law, the question of a constitutional convention comes before voters every two decades. Four previous ballot issues calling for a convention have been rejected. There has been no significant support or opposition campaign this year. The map-drawing and constitutional convention issues are on the Nov. 6 ballot. ___ Online: Voters First Ohio (pro Issue 2): http://www.votersfirstohio.com Protect Your Vote Ohio (anti Issue 2): http://www.VoteNoOn2. com
Ohio officials note progress with new exotic animals law COLUMBUS (AP) — A year after a suicidal owner in Ohio released lions, bears and dozens of his other exotic animals, just 17 owners have registered their creatures with the state under a tougher law. Officials don’t know how many other owners are out there, but they believe there are more than those who have come forward. Still, they aren’t discouraged by the number. They say at least Ohio’s
law now requires owners to tell them how many animals they have, where they are, and who their veterinarian is, among other details. “We had nothing before. Now, we do,” said state Sen. Troy Balderson, a Zanesville Republican who sponsored the legislation. Ohio’s restrictions on exotic animals had been among the nation’s weakest. State lawmakers worked with a renewed sense of urgency
to strengthen the law after an owner last fall released 50 creatures from an eastern Ohio farm in Zanesville before he committed suicide. The law gives owners some immediate requirements, such as installing their animals with microchips so they can be identified if they get lost or escape. Other details, such as the thickness of their animals’ cages and certain caretaking standards are still being finalized. Gov. John
Kasich recently appointed members of an advisory panel that will oversee those more specific rules. The law also provides the state and law enforcement with more authority to intervene if owners aren’t following the regulations.

U.S. SEN. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, (right) debates Republican challenger, Ohio state Treasurer Josh Mandel, at the City Club in Columbus Monday.
DEBATE
From Page 1
Translate” to understand Brown’s “Washingtonspeak.” He said Brown has a poor record on small business and unemployed Ohioans need someone new. Brown, a Democrat, said he’s won the endorsements of many Ohio newspapers because Mandel has held four offices in seven years and can’t be trusted to show up to work. He was referring to the fact that Mandel missed the first 14 monthly meetings of the powerful Board of Deposits that he chairs as treasurer. “He’s more concerned about his next job than the jobs of people in this country,” Brown said. “This is hardly somebody who’s going to be Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.” After one such exchange, Mandel stared into the camera and said, “Senator, you are a liar.” Brown replied that Mandel had taken his attacks to a new low. The auto bailout continued to dominate the conversation, with Brown supporting it and Mandel calling it a mistake. Mandel was a Cleveland-area city councilman and state legislator before being elected state treasurer two years ago. Brown is a former Ohio secretary of state who
was elected to the U.S. House in 1992 and is serving his first term in the Senate. Brown’s defeat of Republican Mike DeWine six years ago surprised political prognosticators — and has remained a loss the GOP would like to reverse. That 2006 victory made Brown the first Democrat that Ohioans had sent to the Senate since former astronaut John Glenn retired in 1999. Brown is among the Senate’s most liberal members, while Mandel is a political moderate whose positions have become more conservative during the campaign. Polls have consistently shown Brown with a slight lead. Former Bush operative Karl Rove’s American Crossroads, the affiliated Crossroads GPS, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have spent tens of millions of dollars against Brown in the state. Mandel attack ads have come largely from labor-backed groups who favor Brown. The debate was held at the corporate headquarters of Nationwide Insurance in downtown Columbus. It was sponsored by a network of Ohio’s eight largest newspapers, The Columbus Dispatch and WBNS-TV.
Smucker’s Uncrustables recalled MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Officials have told school lunch programs across the country to check to see if they have Smucker’s Uncrustables sandwiches that might contain peanut butter from a New Mexico company subject to a nationwide recall over salmonella contamination — and not to serve them. The J.M. Smucker Co. says it used peanut butter from Sunland Inc. in “limited production runs” of 72-count bulk packs of the sandwiches that went to schools under the National School Lunch Program.

McJordan sauce sold BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A man who used to own McDonald’s restaurants in North Dakota is about $10,000 richer after selling a 20-year-old container of McJordan barbecue sauce to a buyer in Chicago. The sauce was used on McJordan Burgers, named for basketball icon Michael Jordan. The promotional item was sold in limited markets for a short time in the 1990s, when Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to six NBA championships. Mort Bank, of Bismarck, saved the gallon jug of sauce after selling his McDonald’s restaurants in Bismarck-Mandan and Minot in 1996. “It was in my basement and I would look at it occasionally,” he told The Bismarck Tribune. “I thought it would be worth something someday.” Bank advertised the sauce on eBay, saying: “A once in a lifetime chance to own the rarest of rare Michael Jordan and McDonald’s collectible!” It sold for $9,995 Monday night to a buyer from Chicago whom Bank has not identified.

PEDESTRIANS WALK past the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in New York, Thursday. A Bangladeshi man snared in an FBI terror sting Wednesday considered targeting President Barack Obama and the New York City Stock Exchange before settling on a car bomb attack on the Federal Reserve, just blocks from the World Trade Center site, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press on Thursday.
Suspect’s family: He asked to go to U.S. NEW YORK (AP) — Quazi Mohammad Rezwanul Ahsan Nafis was a terrible student in his native Bangladesh, and his middle-class parents say he persuaded them to send him off to study in the U.S. as a way of improving his job prospects. At the Missouri college where he enrolled, one classmate said Nafis often remarked that true Muslims don’t believe in violence — an image that seemed startlingly at odds with Nafis’ arrest in an FBI sting this week on charges of trying to blow up the Federal Reserve Bank in New York with what he thought was a 1,000-pound car bomb. “I can’t imagine being more shocked about somebody doing something like this,” said Jim Dow, a 54-year-old Army veteran who rode home from class with Nafis twice a week. “I didn’t just meet this
kid a couple of times. We talked quite a bit, sir. And this doesn’t seem to be in character.” Federal investigators, often accused by defense attorneys of entrapping and leading would-be terrorists along, said the 21-year-old Nafis made the first move over the summer, reaching out for accomplices and eventually contacting a government informant, who then went to federal authorities. They said he also selected his target, drove the van loaded with dummy explosives up to the door of the bank, and tried to set off the bomb from a hotel room using a cellphone he thought had been rigged as a detonator. During the investigation, he and the informant corresponded via Facebook and other social media, talked on the phone and met in hotel rooms, according to a law en-
forcement official who was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Nafis spoke of his admiration for Osama bin Laden, talked of writing an article about his plot for an al-Qaidaaffiliated magazine, and said he would be willing to be a martyr but preferred to go home to his family after carrying out the attack, authorities said. And he also talked about wanting to kill President Barack Obama and bomb the New York Stock Exchange, a law enforcement official said. Investigators said in court papers that he came to the U.S. bent on jihad and worked out the specifics of a plot when he arrived. While Nafis believed he had the blessing of al-Qaida and was acting on behalf of the terrorist group, he has no known ties, according to federal officials.
Rebels besiege Shiite villages BEYANON, Syria (AP) — Anyone who tries to slip out of the Shiite villages of Zahraa and Nubl is risking his life. Sunni rebel snipers stand ready to gun down anyone who dares. Roads are blocked with barricades and checkpoints. For more than three months, Syria’s rebels have imposed a smothering siege on the villages, home to around 35,000 people, maintaining they are a den of pro-regime gunmen responsible for killing and kidnapping Sunnis from nearby towns. The bitterness and reprisals between neighbors illustrate how the civil war has torn apart the longtime coexistence among ethnic and religious groups in Syria. And it points to the perils of sectarian divisions that lie ahead
for the nation of 21 million as the war worsens. Zahraa and Nubl make up a small pocket of Shiites, mostly regime loyalists, in this overwhelmingly Sunni region in the northern countryside of Aleppo province. The siege has its roots in months of tensions since the Sunni-led revolt against President Bashar Assad began in March 2011. Sunnis in the area say proregime gunmen, known as Shabiha, operated from the two villages, attacking nearby towns as they rose up against Assad. The violence fueled a cycle of tit-for-tat killings and kidnappings and tore apart the social fabric between the sects. Then in July, rebels overwhelmed most of Aleppo province, driving out government forces and taking control
of the region’s towns and villages. The tables were turned: Many Assad loyalists fled to Zahraa and Nubl for refuge, and the rebels clamped down their siege, seeking revenge. Perhaps more than anyone, Bashar al-Hajji feels the impact of the rift. A native of Beyanon, a Sunni village of 5,000 across the main northsouth highway from Zahraa and Nubl, he’s the only Sunni in town who’s married to a Shiite. His wife of five years is from Zahraa. “I am caught between the two sides,” said al-Hajji, a 28year-old mechanic who is not just Sunni but follows the sect’s most conservative school, Salafism. His wife’s family shuns him and is persistently telling her to leave him and come home to Zahraa.
HUMOR tration’s coordination and communication had not been “optimal,” Obama said: “If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal. We’re going to fix it. All of it.” Romney has pointedly questioned Obama’s handling of the matter and his honesty about it to voters. Those accusations led to the fiercest conflict of the presidential debate on Tuesday and will surely come to the fore again on Monday in the campaign’s final debate. Appearing in a taping of Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show,” Obama insisted information was shared with the American people as it came in. The attack is under investigation, Obama said, and “the picture eventually gets
NEW YORK (AP) — There was a time when the newsweeklies set the agenda for the nation’s conversation — when Time and Newsweek would digest the events of the week and Americans would wait by their mailboxes to see what was on the covers. Those days have passed, and come the end of the year, the print edition of Newsweek will pass, too. Cause of death: The march of time. “The tempo of the news and the Web have completely overtaken the news magazines,” said Stephen G. Smith, editor of the Washington Examiner and the holder of an unprecedented newsweekly triple crown — nation editor at Time, editor of U.S. News and World Report, and executive editor of Newsweek from 1986 to 1991. Where once readers were content to sit back and wait for tempered accounts of domestic and foreign events, they now can find much of what they need almost instantaneously, on their smartphones and tablet computers. Where once advertisers had limited places to spend their dollars to reach national audiences, they now have seemingly unlimited alternatives. So on Thursday, when Newsweek’s current owners announced they intended to halt print publication and expand the magazine’s Web presence, there was little surprise. But there was a good deal of nostalgia for what Smith called “the shared conversation that the nation used to have,” when the networks, the newsweeklies and a few national newspapers reigned. Before Newsweek, there was Time — the brainchild of Henry Luce and Briton Hadden. The first issue of the first newsweekly came out in 1923, and the formula, from the first, was to wrap up the week’s news and tie it with a bow, telling it with a singular voice.
Court: Suspect can be shaved FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — An Army appeals court ruled Thursday that the Fort Hood shooting suspect can have his beard forcibly shaved off before his murder trial. The U.S. Army Court of Criminal Appeals upheld the military trial judge’s decision to order Maj. Nidal Hasan to appear in court clean shaven or be forcibly shaved, according to a release from Fort Hood. The opinion came on the heels of last week’s hearing at Fort Belvoir in Virginia in which the court heard arguments from both sides. Hasan, who did not attend the hearing, has said he grew a beard because his Muslim faith requires it, despite the Army’s ban on beards. A few exceptions have been made for religious reasons. The appeals court also ruled that Col. Gregory Gross, the trial judge, properly found that the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act does not give Hasan the right to have a beard while in uniform during his trial.
From Page 1 filled in.” The exchange came on a day when Vice President Joe Biden compared the policies of Romney’s running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, to a gun pointed at Americans, and after Romney’s son said he was tempted to “take a swing” at Obama when the Democrat questions the GOP candidate’s honesty. Ryan, speaking at a campaign stop in Ocala, Fla., before Biden delivered his comments, accused Obama of sending a divisive message. “He’s basically trying to disqualify his opponent with a sea of negativity,” Ryan said. “He’s trying to divide this country, pitting people against each other. He’s trying to win this election by de-
fault. You know what? We’re not going to let him get away with that.” The sharpness of the barbs is a reflection of just how tight the race is 19 days out. Hard campaign decisions are being made, state by state. Romney aides said Thursday that no staff had been dispatched to Michigan or Pennsylvania, where they once suggested he would compete aggressively but has not. The bickering between campaigns was supposed to take a break Thursday night as both candidates address the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, a whitetie gala at New York City’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel that has been a required stop for politicians since the end of
World War II. The evening’s political dinner is named for the fourterm Democratic governor of New York who lost the 1928 presidential race to Republican Herbert Hoover. Smith was the first Catholic to run for president and the dinner named for him is organized by the Catholic Archdiocese of New York for the benefit of needy children. In keeping with tradition, both candidates prepared lighthearted remarks for the event. That was also the case four years ago when Obama and GOP nominee John McCain poked fun at themselves and each other just a day after an intense presidential debate at Hofstra University on Long Island.

DANCING THE “Time Warp” during a rehearsal of “The Rocky Horror Show” Saturday are (l-r) Lani Shock, Rachel Tingley as Janet, Mykie Marks as Riff Raff, Tyson Tingley as Brad, Hillary Shock, Stephanie Curtis as Columbia and Alyssa Bertsch. All are from Sidney. The show runs Oct. 26-27.
Theater to present “Rocky Horror” Sock & Buskin Community Theatre and directors Rodney Bertsch and Ryan Hurley have announced the cast for their upcoming musical “Rocky Horror, Live.” Tyson Tingley will portray Brad with Jacob Hill as Frank ‘n Furter, Rachel Tingley as Janet, Stephanie Curtis as Columbia, Nikole Hoover as Magenta, Hillary Shock as Dr, Scott, Jennifer Long as the narrator, Mykie Marks as Riff Raff, Sandy Park as the usherette, and Josh Marks as Rocky Horror. Other ensemble members and phantoms will be Alyssa Bertsch, Gwen M. Geier, Lani Shock, and Todd Toner. Bertsch, who is also designing the set and costumes, said, “Sock & Buskin is excited to be the first community theater in the area to perform this show. It is fun to be doing a show of this caliber, expanding the repertoire of productions that S&B can do.” “The Rocky Horror Show” premiered in London in June 1973, closing in September 1980 after 2,960 performances. It
tells the story of a newly engaged couple who get caught in a storm and visit the home of a mad, transvestite scientist who unveils his new creation, a muscle man named Rocky Horror. Its 1974 debut in the U.S. in Los Angeles had a successful nine-month run. It then opened on Broadway in March 1975 with Tim Curry as Frank and the actor Meatloaf as Eddie and Dr. Scott; however, it only lasted for three previews and 45 showings despite garnering a Tony nomination and three Drama Desk nominations. The musical developed a cult following and was adapted into the 1975 film “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” which today has the longest-running release in film history. “The Rocky Horror Show” had a long revival on Broadway from October 2000 to January 2002. The revival closed early because of financial losses during the time after Sept. 11, but was nominated for Best Actor, Best Costume Designer,
Best Director, and Best Musical Revival. Hurley, who is also doing the choreography, said, “I have always wanted to do this show and I think audiences will find it a great Halloween entertainment.” There will be audience participation; however, unlike in movie theaters, the prop list will be limited to newspapers, flashlights, rubber gloves, noisemakers, and a bell. Rice, confetti, squirt guns, toilet paper, cards, and food will not be allowed in the theater. Audience members are encouraged to dress in costume (Rocky Horror or otherwise) since it is Halloween weekend, and there will be winners chosen after each show. Parents are advised there is adult content in this production. Tickets are $10 and available at the door or at 2nd Hand Thoughts, 115 S. Ohio Ave. Performance will be Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. and Oct. 27 at 8 p.m. and midnight at the Historic Sidney Theatre, 120 W. Poplar St.
Free digital magazines are now available from Shelby County Libraries. Library cardholders may access the periodicals by clicking on the Zinio link on the libraries’ website at http://shelbyco.lib.oh.us/. Ohio eBook Project Manager Mandy Knapp will present a program Nov. 1 at 11:30 a.m. at Amos Memorial Public Library, 230 E. North St. “We feel it is important to offer the latest technology to our patrons, especially if it offers easy access to reading materials. How we read may be changing but reading will always be fundamental. We will still have printed books for a long time, yet the library is here to help people use the new devices,” said Suzanne Cline, executive director. Helpful videos and step-by-step instructions are available on the site. Technical help is also available from library staff. Among the 50 periodicals are Car and Driver, Consumer Reports, Family Circle, National Geographic, Prevention, Reader’s Digest, Seventeen and Shape. “I selected magazines that have been popular with our patrons. We’ll look at the usage each year when we renew or add additional subscriptions. Patrons may donate money for us to buy more magazines, too,” said Mark Kister, director of adult services. Once on the Shelby County Libraries area of Zinio’s website, patrons may create their accounts by entering an
email address and password of their choosing. Before downloading, the patron will need to submit their 14-digit, library card number, without spaces. Then, free individual magazine subscriptions may be chosen. Once an account is set up, tablet computers and other digital devices may download an app to use the account to view or download magazines. When new issues are published, notices are emailed. “If a patron is asked to pay for anything, then they are not in the libraries’ section. People may also buy personal subscriptions but the library does not charge for those we are offering. Our name will be at the top of the page,” said Michael Grone, director of technical services. The service works with virtually all PC and Mac computers, and Android and Apple digital devices except Nooks. Barnes and Noble does not offer an app for their Nook devices. However, they recently announced that Nook Color and Tablet users can now directly access the Ohio eBook Project to download ebooks and audiobooks. Shelby County Libraries has been a member of the consortium for more than six years, which is a group of public libraries from across Ohio pooling funds to offer the latest in digital downloads. Technical help is available at the Amos Library on an appointment basis as well as drop-in service on Tuesday and Thursday nights. For more information, call the library at 492-8354.

The Alpha Community Center offers a safe, positive, nurturing environment created to foster a purposeful, spiritual direction. “The Alpha Center is an important organization in this community. It provides much-needed support to different programs in town. I know they work diligently to raise money for their projects, and they deserve this grant from ConAgra Foods.

year,” said Emily Neu, ConAgra Foods marketing manager, in Troy. ConAgra Foods is one of North America’s leading food companies, with brands in 97 percent of America’s households.

TO THE EDITOR
We have duties, too To the editor: What is duty? We hear much about our rights, but very little about our duty. Our Founding Fathers understood when we claim our natural rights there are corresponding responsibilities that come with them, an action required by moral considerations. Our rights are not anything and everything we want or claim with nothing required of us in return. If we could do anything we wanted regardless of the rule of law, that’s anarchy not liberty. For example, we have the freedom of speech with the corresponding duty to be honest and speak the truth. We have the freedom to vote with the corresponding duty to be informed. The Founding Fathers understood there is a connection between duty and morality. Do we? George Washington warns in his farewell address: “Of all the dispositions and habits, which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect, that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.” The survival of our nation as we know it, depends on the moral character of our people. We all have a mind capable of knowing right from wrong and hence the moral freedom to choose between good or evil. But, without the influence of religion we lack the will to do good. The solution is not in giving government more power to force people to do good for that leads to tyranny. The solution is personal responsibility. We cannot presume we will be able to preserve our natural rights if we refuse to personally take the corresponding duties of those rights. Kathy Woods 12876 Licklider Road Conover
Elect Bornhorst To the editor: Elect Bornhorst, Republican candidate for Shelby County Commissioner. A common-sense vote — Anthony J. Bornhorst. “Decisions made with integrity, honesty, and experience.” These words are utilized on a door hanger, encouraging county voters to choose Tony Bornhorst as our next Shelby County Commissioner. We are pleased to support him in seeking this position of leadership for Shelby County. Knowing and working with Tony on various community, school, county and state issues has shown us his consistent, common-sense approach to problem-solving. As a successful family farmer, active volunteer and proven leader, Tony Bornhorst has combined a strong work ethic with a desire to make life better for both fellow farmers and Shelby County residents in other fields of work. Countless examples of service illustrate his dedication to the education of our youth, the profitable success of others, and the responsible use of our natural resources. Please join us in electing Tony Bornhorst as our next county commissioner! Roger Bender Kathleen “Bobby” Bender 5374 Mason Road Fort Loramie
Bring back my bin To the editor: On Oct.3, someone picked up a large green bin with back wheels from my driveway. I have used this bin for many years to take my trash bags to the street for pick up. Because of my back problems I need my bin; it is irreplaceable now. To the person who has my bin, please bring it back. I’ll ask no questions and appreciate its return. Susan Minniear 610 E.

TO THE EDITOR
We need Bornhorst
Questioning Biden
To the editor: As we go to the ballot box in November, the residents of Shelby County need to be secure in the knowledge that they are selecting a candidate for commissioner that will be able a strong leader and help enable the prosperity of our county. Tony Bornhorst is that person. I have worked with Tony on numerous occasions through his work in the agriculture industry. He is a smart, driven and passionate person who believes in his community and wants its citizens to succeed. As a commissioner he will bring with him his experience in management, and leadership ability. I urge you to vote for Tony Bornhorst for commissioner on Nov. 6! He is the candidate our county needs in order to move forward. Jill Smith 620 Jackson St. Jackson Center
To the editor: During the vice presidential debate on Oct. 11, Vice President Joe Biden said, “As a practicing Catholic I accept the Catholic Church’s teaching on abortion.” If I was the moderator of the debate I would have have followed up with the following question. “Vice President Biden, if in fact you accept the Catholic Church’s teaching on abortion — which states that life begins at conception — how do you reconcile what happens to that life when terminated in the womb?” I can’t speak for Mr. Biden but I’m sure in his reply we would have heard such politically correct terms such as “choice,” “abortion,” “reproductive rights,” etc. Two words you would probably not hear from Mr. Biden are “murder” or “killing.” But if you believe, as Mr. Biden says he does, that life begins at conception, what else can the termination of that life be called? Larry Wilberding 723 W. Greene St. Piqua
He won’t let you down To the editor: The four qualities listed on one of Tony Bornhorst’s campaign signs are accurate and are good reasons to vote for him in November. Courage — Tony has the courage to not only stick up for what is right but also to identify policies and processes that need to be evaluated and revised. Character — He is a man with integrity, and he demonstrates high moral principles in all aspects of his life. Commitment — Tony has given the commitment to run for Shelby County Commissioner much thought, time, and energy. He is not only very knowledgeable about the expectations of the job, but he also knows the people of Shelby County and their values and beliefs. As commissioner, he will be dedicated to help our county be the place where people will want to raise their family and where people will want to work. Common sense — I have known Tony for 25 years, and he has always been the type of person who knows what needs to be done and what is the smartest and most practical way to do it. Vote for Tony on Nov. 6. He won’t let you down. Marci Langenkamp 3300 Redmond Road Russia
Continuing tragedy To the editor: While Christian churches are being destroyed nearly daily in Muslim countries, the Obama administration is investing millions of taxpayer dollars rebuilding mosques and minarets in 27 Islamic countries. The State Department says the mosque restoration program is designed to “build relationship with Muslim leaders.” The entire cost of its Muslim agenda is unknown, but one restoration was part of a $770 million program. The fact is, federal regulations prohibit USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development) funds being used for saving structures for “inherently religious activities.” The religious activities of those Islamic mosques also includes preaching hatred of Jews, Christians and Americans. While our State Department repaired Egyptian mosques, Egypt’s Christian churches were burned by Muslim mobs. Egypt’s 100-year-old St. George’s Church in Merinab was doing its own renovation when Muslims were offended by its cross and burned it to the ground while shouting “kill all the Christians.” Since 2009, there have been 288 Christian churches in Nigeria and Pakistan burned, thousands of Christians’ homes destroyed, and 2,000 Christians killed. In the past two months, Muslims in Kenya have attacked 11 churches, killing and wounding dozens of Christians. Ironically, while Hillary Clinton’s apology was being aired condemning the recent YouTube video, St. Paul’s Church in Pakistan was burned by hundreds of Muslims. Protecting Obama, our mainstream media refused to report this crisis and our taxpayer millions continue to pour into their counties. Israel is being ignored and Christians being murdered by Muslims (along with Ambassador Stevens) while Obama visits talk shows and continues campaigning. A vote for Obama will continue this tragedy. Do you care? John Liesner 450 Riverside Drive
Troop 95 also present To the editor: Shelby County Republican Party Chairman Chris Gibbs slightly misspoke at the Romney for President rally when he introduced the Boy Scout color guard as members of Troop 97. Our Scout contingent to present the national colors and to lead the Pledge of Allegiance consisted of Boy Scouts from both Troops 95 and 97 of Sidney. We appreciate Tom Frantz, scoutmaster of Troop 97, for coordinating scouts participation and to the scouts and parents of Troops 95 and 97 for supporting on short notice. We also had scouts participating in the Sidney High School marching band and FFA. William M. Fuller Scoutmaster Troop 95
Vote to respect life To the editor: To all registered voters: Do you know President Obama is the most pro-abortion commander in chief our country has ever had? Over 300,000 babies have been killed by surgical abortion last year; 137 defenseless babies still die each hour in American abortion mills. Under President Obama’s administration, Planned Parenthood received billions of our tax dollars to slaughter millions of innocent, defenseless unborn babies. President Obama’s health care plan provides “choice” for all women. This includes legal abortion. He claims he wants to prevent a “war on women’s health.” However, half of all aborted babies are girls! Who will protect them? As Christians, how can we support the leaders of our country who have no respect for our future generation? What can we do? Pray, speak up and put our prayers into action. Vote for leaders of our country who will have a respect for life. Vote for president – Mitt Romney — and Josh Mandel for U.S. Senate. Our country can again become one nation under God. Sally Naseman 18751 Reineke-Schipper Road Botkins
Vote against Issue 2 To the editor: This Election Day, Ohioans will be voting on Issue 2, a proposed constitutional amendment on redistricting. While I agree the current redistricting process needs reformed, the proposal set forth in Issue 2 is not the right solution. Issue 2 would require a group of appellate judges to select a pool of people from which a 12member commission would be chosen to redraw Ohio’s legislative and congressional districts. If the 12-member commission cannot agree on a plan, Issue 2 requires the Ohio Supreme Court to select on of the plans the commission considered. If the selected plan is challenged, the Ohio Supreme Court would rule on the challenge, possibly ruling on the same plan they selected. Issue 2 inappropriately involves Ohio’s judiciary in the political redistricting process. I believe, especially as an attorney, the judiciary must remain fair, impartial and independent. Issue 2 directly involves the Ohio judiciary in the political redistricting process, which is why I am voting against Issue 2 and would strongly urge you to do likewise. Tom Guillozet 9265 Brush Creek Drive Piqua
Help appreciated To the editor: In nine weeks I will be 87. I am a World War II vet. My granddaughter called and asked me if I wanted go see our next president at the fairgrounds. I said yes. Ten years ago I had a stroke on my right side. I can walk for only a short distance. I parked at a corner and we walked up Campbell to the gate by the school. I went through the gate with my family. The policeman pointed at me and said, “Sir, you stand over there and I will get you through.” Well, he did and there was a triple line on the right of us and after he pointed at me and said, “Sir, you can go,” so I went through the gate. But the family had to go around like all the rest. I am writing this to express my appreciation to that good man for his kindness and if he reads this ask that he call or send me a card and let me know his name. God bless him and his. Also, I appreciate the person who turned a set of car keys in to the police station. They were my daughter’s that I lost. Bless you, too. I am proud to be an American. If you don’t love this country, go back to what you do love. James W. Bryant Sr. 225 W. South St.

BY TERRY PELLMAN JACKSON CENTER — Students in the Jackson Center School District will be able to celebrate Halloween in a special way. The dis-
trict’s Parent Teacher Organization will be hosting a special Family Fun Night today from 7 to 9 p.m. at the school. This is the third year for this event. Last year, 225 children attended. Jackson Center School students in the Shelby Hills preschool program through those in the sixth grade may participate. There is no admission charge, but attendees are invited to donate canned goods and nonperishable food items for the community food pantry. Tina Sailor of the PTO says activities will
be operated by organization volunteers and FCCLA program members. Those activities will include music, games, pumpkin decorating, crafts, and a cake wheel. Some senior class art students from the high school will be doing face painting. One activity will be a “scary hallway walk” through the school building, meant to be not too scary as Sailor explains, but one that will provide some fun. Along the way, scary stories will be told. Snacks and drinks will be provided. In addition, Sidney
Tool and Equipment is providing a bounce house for the entertainment of the youngsters. Children are asked not to wear costumes, for the sake of safety, in such activities as the bounce house. The Jackson Center PTO sponsors the Family Fun Night as a way of thanking children and parents for their support and the saving of box tops that are turned in for funding. In addition to the school-based function, the village of Jackson Center will observe trick-or-treat night Oct. 25 from 6 to 7 p.m.
BOE accepts donation JACKSON CENTER — The Jackson Center Board of Education accepted a sizable donation from Plastipak Packaging at Monday’s meeting, among other business.

The board approved the following supplemental staff contracts: Bill Reichert, boys eighth-grade basketball; Rachel Borchers, girls high school basketball, volunteer coach; Rhonda Burch, girls seventhgrade basketball; and Tony Meyer, girls eighth-grade basketball. The following pupil
activity contracts were approved: Brad Esser, assistant boys high school basketball; Garret Serr, assistant boys high school basketball; Scott Klopfenstein, seventh-grade boys basketball; and Deron Sosby, volunteer boys junior high basketball. The board passed a resolution of necessity for the purpose of filing a five-year, 0.5-percent earned income tax levy, to be placed on the February ballot. The district is projected to run out of cash in calendar year 2014 or early 2015. The five-year forecast, to be submitted to the Ohio Department of Education, was approved.
The board approved the purchase of technology upgrades, including desktop computers, laptops and work on the server, for up to $40,000, with current
estimates nearer $30,000. Payment in lieu of transport was approved for a district student attending Lehman Catholic High School.

“hits” on the guy. Of course she is not trying to win these guys away from me, but I think she just wants to feel like a beautiful woman. Some guys even comment on how “cool” my mom is. I’d rather she would have fun feeling like a beautiful woman with men her own age. Should I just ignore mom acting like a “teenager” or should I suggest she just say hello at the door and not bring my dates in for a chat? —Nameless, La Jolla, Calif. NAMELESS: If looking pretty for your dates is your mom’s only flaw, allow her to recapture her youth. Say nothing more to her about looking great when she meets your dates. Perhaps she is almost ready to join the dating scene and she is “rehearsing.” By the way, would you prefer she meet your dates wearing her jeans and flip-flops with tousled hair? DR. WALLACE: The guy I love went back to Mexico because he thought that I was preg-

I love this guy very much and I want him to return to me. Please help. —Corina, Del Rio, Tex. CORINA: This guy doesn’t deserve your love. He is a coward, a louse, and he will never be considered a gentleman. You might be in love with this guy at the moment, but the Good Lord permits people to fall in love more than once.

BOO-LLETIN BOARD
Beyond the candy (Family Features) — Kids and adults alike look forward to Halloween each year. From the costumes, to the sweet treats, there’s plenty to get excited about. But Halloween also provides the perfect opportunity for kids to get involved in the community as well. Use these tips to help your child think of the holiday as yet another way to spread a festive spirit, with less emphasis on candy, and more emphasis on giving back. Collect donations for a cause. If your kids plan to trick-or-treat, talk to them about collecting coins for an organization that helps children in need throughout the world. “Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF is a powerful way for parents to teach their children the value of helping others and for kids to learn about the world,” said Caryl Stern, president and CEO of the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. For the first time, the traditional Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF box has been given a new look, with six spooky new character boxes — a monster, black cat, princess, pumpkin, vampire and a witch. Fundraising kits containing the character boxes may be ordered online with free shipping at w w w. t r i c k o r t r e a t forunicef.org or by calling 1-800-FOR-KIDS while supplies last. Share some spooky treats. Most kids love to get involved in the kitchen — especially when sweet treats are involved. This year, whip up a batch of spooky treats together to share with neighbors, teachers, patients at the local hospital, and residents at your nearest retirement home. Get crafty with the kids. Encourage your child to use their creative talents to help spread the Halloween spirit by designing their own Trickor-Treat for UNICEF box. The “Create-a-Character” contest allows kids to submit their Halloween character design for a chance to be selected for the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF 2013 limited edition collection. Make it a group activity. Encourage your child’s scout troop to participate, or help your child organize a party for neighborhood kids to spend an afternoon designing characters, then enter online before Oct. 26 at www.trickortreatforunicef.org. This year Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF has partnered with national sponsors Key Club International and MediaVest, and promotional supporters American Airlines and Coinstar, Inc. Donate old costumes. Your kids grow quickly, so it’s unlikely they’ll be able to wear the same Halloween costume two years in a row. Discuss with your child the needs of other children their age and give them the opportunity to donate their gently used Halloween costumes and clothing. Be sure to explain to your children how their costumes can help make another child's Halloween extra special, and make sure they’re involved in the donation process.

Pirate or politician, ghoul or gangster, zombie or Zeus?
Scare-ifying Halloween costume trends BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN pspeelman@sdnccg.com When the leaves turn red and gold and the air gets crisp, there’s one burning question that people everywhere begin to ask. It’s heard on school playgrounds, by the office water cooler, and in the factory break room: What are you dressing as for Halloween? Whether it’s for a costume party at the neighbor’s house or trick-or-treating through town, choosing the right disguise consumes the focus as Oct. 31 nears. In 2012, area residents can expect to see plenty of witches, vampires and pirates, the top three choices according to the National Retail Federation (NRF), which surveys more than 9,000 costume vendors across the country. There also will be a healthy contingent of Mitt Romney- and Barack Obama-masked party-goers. Rounding out the top 10 adult picks are Batman character, zombie, vixen, princess, nurse, ghost and cat. Children choose to become princesses, Batman, Spiderman, witches, Disney princesses, super heroes, pirates, vampires, zombies and ghosts. Locally, men seem to be trying on lots of Greek god outfits and military camouflage uniforms, said Kash Shah, of Sidney, a sales associate at Spirit of Halloween, 2240 W. Michigan St. “Kids usually go for Star Wars and ghost costumes,” he said. The store was busy Wednesday evening. Families shopped for trick-or-treat outfits with their children. Adults selected party fare. And several people enjoyed animatronic displays that frightened unwary shoppers. “ We ’ r e

Augusta is also the daughter of Gus Biederman. just here having fun,” said Ashley Stambaugh, who was in the store with her friend, Jessica Teague. Both women are from Sidney. Stambaugh was in search of “something that’s really going to scare people,” she said. “Sometimes I go around scaring things randomly.” Teague had already purchased her outfit: “A big, bad, sexy wolf,” she said. Teague was not the only one who has the holiday well in hand. Janessa Coverstone, 6, was in the store with her dad, Eric, of Anna, and Dawson King, 6. “I already have my costume,” Janessa said. “It’s a football player, a Bengal.” A group from Bellefontaine had items in hand, almost ready to head to the check-out counter. The Sidney store was the closest they could find, said Kimberly Rodabaugh, Brent Roby and Beth and Chuck Ragland. They were shopping for things to wear to the annual RTC Industries party in their hometown. “It’s a hard choice when you come in to shop,” Rodabaugh said as she wavered between buying Lady Gaga and a zombie. “They have neat props, like jumping spiders,” said Chuck. Those spiders, new last year, have been jumping right off the shelves along with Fri-
day the 13th and Chuckie doll masks, said Assistant Manager Danyel Fahnestock, of Sidney. “When Romney came to town, we sold almost all we had (of Romney masks),” she said. “We still have a couple back there. We sold quite a few Obama masks, as well. Adult women seem to be choosing things from the flapper era, the ’20s. If that’s what they choose, then their men tend to go with a gangster theme.” It wasn’t only adults who were attracted to gangsterism. Drew Barhorst, 11, son of Kurt and Connie Barhorst, of Sidney, knew he wanted to be a gangster to go trick-ortreating. His brother J.D., 6, was undecided. “We’re looking for something that jumps out at you,” Connie said. Eight-year-old Brooke Fogt, daughter of Liz and Mike Fogt, of Sidney, purchased a cowboy hat to complete her costume. That’s a different choice from most girls, Fahnestock noted. “They’re going with witches, fairies, Monster High characters,” she said. The NRF released statistics that project that nearly six million adults plan to dress as a witch this year, and 3.2 million will dress as vampires. When it comes to those
planning a costume for their four-legged friends, 12.7 percent of people are sticking with the most traditional of all costumes – a pet-friendly pumpkin, according to a press release. Americans are expected to spend $2.87 billion on Halloween costumes this year, the survey said, spending more than $1.1 billion on children’s costumes, $1.4 billion on adult costumes, and $370 million on pet costumes. The average person will spend $79.82 on Halloween candy, costumes and decor, bringing total spending to $8 billion — the most in the survey’s 10-year history. “Choosing a costume is one of the most entertaining parts of Halloween,” said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay. “With many families on the hunt for adult, child and pet costumes this year, retailers are making sure they’ve got their shelves fully stocked with a wide variety of costumes, including the traditional and even the not-so-traditional garbs inspired by Hollywood and even pop-culture.” Whatever the choices, area residents can be assured of seeing — and being — spooky, ghoulish, romantic, sexy, scary, cute, hilarious, and most of all, fun creatures this season.

(And you definitely will defend your turf!) CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Because the Moon is opposite your sign today, you will have to compromise with others. This is no big deal. Just be gracious and accommodating. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Focus on getting better organized today. It will please you to do something to make you feel more efficient and effective in everything you do. “Let’s clean up this place!” VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) It’s a playful day for Virgos!

(Pop some vitamins.) SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Keep track of your cash flow and banking scene today. Find out how much money you have and how much money you owe. Information is power.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) All group activities will go well today. Accept all invitations. Small coffeeklatches, classes or large conferences will be stimulating for you. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with others in order to get their feedback. YOU BORN TODAY You have a logical, analytical mind, and are aware of everything that is going on around you.

DONOHUE AND ROACH: I am a 52-year-old female. About a year and a half ago, my primary-care doctor informed me that my white blood cell count was high, and she advised that I see a hematologist. I did as she advised, and was diagnosed with polycythemia vera. I have been seeing my hematologist on a regular basis; he said he isn’t concerned about any type of treatment because my hemoglobin and platelets are fine. My white blood cell count is always between 20-24. Do you feel I have anything to be concerned
about? I am otherwise healthy, feel great and don’t feel tired. I would like to know what you think. — K.M. ANSWER: Polycythemia vera, also called polycythemia rubra vera (which, in Latin, means “too many red blood cells”), is an uncommon blood condition in which the body makes more red blood cells than it needs. People with the usual kind of this condition have too many RED blood cells. You have too many WHITE blood cells. In the usual kind, the most common form of treatment is bloodletting. (Yes, there are still a few diseases that we treat with bloodletting.) But periodic blood removal is not indicated for people who have normal red blood or hemoglobin levels; that’s why your hematologist isn’t recommending any treatment.

He was prosecuted for his actions and pleaded guilty, but he still blames me entirely for the scenario and refuses to accept any responsibility. I fear for the safety of myself and my daughter every day, and I want to leave him for good. Many of the shelters I have called require that I quit my job, which is something I feel is counterintuitive to establishing a life on my own, so I refuse.

25 years Oct. 19, 1987 MIDLAND — Texas Rescuers trying to reach 18 month old Jessica McClure got a boost today when they bored a 2inch hole into the well shaft where the toddler was trapped, but her rescue was still hours away. “I think it set them(the rescue workers) on fire,” Police Captain Jim White said of the breakthrough into the narrow shaft where Jessica was trapped 22 feet below the ground. The rescue workers, boring through rocks so hard that it dulled diamond tipped drills, still had to drill a 20 inch diameter hole through 10 inches of solid rock in order to reach in and pull Jessica out. Workers were not sure how far the hole was located below the child, who fell into the abandon backyard well Wednesday. Workers have heard crying many times. “If she is crying, she’s breathing. It’s as simple as that, said Dr. Chip Klunick an emergency physician on scene. ––––– This year Lehman High School is hosting four exchange students from Spain, Sweden and Germany, who are taking classes for full credit for the entire 87-88 school year.

Tigers rout Yankees DETROIT (AP) — Prince Fielder waved his arms franticly, gleefully calling off his teammates before catching the final out. From the moment Fielder signed his massive contract in January, an entire city had been waiting for a moment like this. Max Scherzer capped a stupendous stretch for Detroit’s starting rotation, and the Tigers advanced to the World Series for the second time in seven years by beating the New York Yankees 8-1 Thursday for a four-game sweep of the AL championship series. Cabrera and Miguel Jhonny Peralta hit two-run homers in a four-run fourth inning against CC Sabathia, who was unable to prevent the Yankees from getting swept in a postseason series for the first time in 32 years. “Yeah, we did it,” Cabrera said. “It’s an unbelievable feeling. … Four more wins, guys. Four more wins.” Scherzer took a no-hit bid into the sixth against a New York starting lineup that was again without Alex Rodriguez, who flied out with two on in the sixth as a pinch hitter. Austin Jackson added a solo shot in the seventh for Detroit, and Peralta hit another homer an inning later. The game ended with Fielder, Detroit’s $214 million acquisition, catching Jayson Nix’s popup. The Tigers spilled onto the field for a celebration that began near second base and eventually moved closer to the third-base line. General manager Dave Dombrowski hugged manager Jim Leyland — who is in the final year of his contract — while owner Mike Ilitch rubbed Leyland’s right shoulder. “I’ve got a great bunch,” Ilitch said. “We don’t have one hot dog in the bunch. They’re all great guys. … The Tigers are something special.” Detroit won its 11th American League pennant and first since 2006. The Tigers have five days off before the World Series starts Wednesday at defending champion St. Louis or 2010 winner San Francisco.

Fort Loramie advances to finals TIPP CITY — The Fort Loramie volleyball team had no trouble against Bethel in the Division IV sectional semifinals Thursday at Tipp City, winning 25-6, 25-8, 25-8. Reggi Brandewie led the Redskins with nine kills while Darian Rose had eight and Amy Holthaus five. Julie Hoying recorded 28 assists and Danielle Wehrman had six digs. Loramie, now 20-4, takes on Mechanicsburg in the sectional finals Saturday at 3:30. Boys soccer Sidney/Wayne The Sidney boys soccer team saw its season come to an end at the hands of Wayne as the No. 3 seed Warriors won 50 in the Division I sectional semifinals at Huber Heights. “We beat them 1-0 at home during the regular season, but Wayne came out with a vengeance tonight,” said Sidney coach Eric Harlamert. “Playing on turf instead of grass increased the speed of the game and we just didn’t have an answer for Marquis Payton, who had three goals. He showed tonight why he was selected as the Division I Dayton-area Player of the Year.” The Jackets finish the year at 9-7-2. Fairlawn/Dixie Fairlawn traveled down to New Lebanon and came away with a 5-4 win over Dixie in

CINCINNATI (AP) — The seats are dark green instead of mustard yellow. The home team wears full stripes instead of a half-adorned helmet. Otherwise, Paul Brown Stadium feels awfully homey for the Pittsburgh Steelers. They’ve won 10 of their last 11 at the stadium along the Ohio River — about 300 miles downstream from their own field where the river is formed. Since the stadium opened in 2000, they’ve gone 11-2, an impressive record that includes a 2005 playoff victory. The Steelers (2-3) will need every bit of their away-fromhome-field advantage on Sunday night in a game that represents a fork in the river for both teams. Pittsburgh is 0-3 on the road, losing at Denver, Oakland and Tennessee. The Steelers haven’t opened a season 0-4 on the road since 2006. The Bengals (3-3) have dropped their last two games overall, leaving them in a tough spot heading into the toughest stretch of their schedule. Not just another game for either of these river rivals. “I don’t think we can afford another loss this whole entire season,” Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey said. The Bengals can relate. “It’s like I’ve been saying: For us to get to where we want to be, we’ve got to beat opponents like this,” quarterback Andy Dalton said. “So we need to get a win, and that’s what it comes down to.” Adding to their urgency is Baltimore’s fast start in the AFC North. The Ravens are 51, giving them an early cushion. The Steelers and Bengals can’t afford to let the gap grow if they intend to challenge for the title. “Oh yeah, this is a mustwin game for us,” Bengals receiver A.J. Green said. In this stadium, the Steelers almost always get it. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is 7-1 at Paul Brown
Stadium. He grew up in Ohio and attended Miami University, a 45-minute drive north of Cincinnati. He and the Steelers feel right at home with thousands of toweltwirling Steelers fans filling the place. Feels real comfy, actually. “We’re excited to go on the road, and we’re excited to go into a hostile environment,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s Sunday Night Football, so it’s going to be fun. We usually have a lot of Steelers fans when we play so close to home, so we’re really looking forward to going to Cincinnati this week.” Roethlisberger leads an offense converting 51.9 percent of third downs, the best in the league. The Steelers are leaning on him as much as ever with running backs Rashard Mendenhall (Achilles tendon) and Isaac Redman (ankle) limited by injuries. The offensive line also is in flux because of injuries, which is a bad combination. The Steelers rank 31st in rushing in the NFL. “You know, we’re piecing it together right now,” coach Mike Tomlin said. “We’ve had some lineup changes in the backfield and on the offensive line but from our perspective, we’re capable of playing better.” It’s the first AFC North game for the Steelers, who don’t get into the heart of their division schedule until midNovember, when they play Baltimore, Cleveland and Baltimore again during a threeweek stretch. Three AFC North teams reached the playoffs last season, partly a factor of a favorable schedule outside the division. That’s not likely to happen this year. “We know if we want to do anything and go to the playoffs, it starts in our division,” receiver Antonio Brown said. “This week we have an opportunity to start in our division and get some things cleaned up.”
Rookie QBs may steal the show INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck and Brandon Weeden are focusing on this week’s game. Everyone else can debate the sideshow that will be one of Sunday’s marquee matchups — the first head-to-head contest between two of this year’s high-profile rookie quarterbacks. “I think (the goal is) get back to winning. That’s the great thing about sports, competition, you get a game the next week,” Luck said. “Whether it’s a win or a loss the week before, you get to go back out there and you have to prove yourself again.” Both still have plenty to show in this league, though the Colts and Browns clearly expect these friends to mirror the winning image they had in college. They are making progress. When Luck, the No. 1 pick in April, rallied the Colts (2-3) for a stunning win over Green Bay two weeks ago, he became the first NFL rookie to throw for more than 1,200 yards and win twice in his first four games. Yet he’s been a completely different guy at Lucas Oil Stadium than on the road. At home, where he’ll face the Browns (1-5), Luck is a solid 73 AP Photo/Scott R.

each of Indy’s first three home games. Outside the retractable roof dome, he’s 45 of 89 for 589 yards with one TD, five interceptions and two lost fumbles in a pair of blowout losses. No, it’s not an unusual disparity for a 23-year-old quarterback about to play in his sixth NFL game. It’s just that Luck and the Colts expect more. “You have to demand that they play great and play like a veteran,” Indy interim coach and offensive coordinator Bruce Arians said. “Ours is capable and once you’ve done it, you’ve set the standard, don’t go back down. When you do go back down, you have to figure out what was the reason why. … We’ve set a pretty high standard already so we’re not going to use youth, especially at that position, as an excuse.” The early returns on Weeden have been mixed, too. While he’s completed a higher percentage of passes than Luck, 129 of 231, and thrown for more yards (1,519), he’s matched Luck’s touchdown total (seven) in one fewer game and thrown more interceptions (10). But until last week, he was the only rookie quarterback of the five rookie starters without a win. The streak finally ended with a 34-24 victory over bitter rival Cincinnati, giving the Browns an infusion of momentum before heading to Indy. “He’s had pockets of good
play and then he’s made some mistakes. I’m probably going to be more critical about our guy than the Colts quarterback,” Browns coach Pat Shurmur said. “I feel like he’s grinding through this rookie year. He’s making improvements in every game and every practice, and I anticipate that he will continually improve.” This is not the first time Luck and Weeden have met on the field. Weeden outplayed Luck in the first matchup, Jan. 2 at the Fiesta Bowl, throwing for 399 yards and three scores in Oklahoma State’s 41-38 win over Stanford. Luck threw for 347 yards and two TDs. The next battle led into April’s draft. Luck was the big winner, going No. 1 to the Colts, while the Browns selected the then 28-year-old Weeden at No. 22. Throughout the evaluation process, though, the two soonto-be rookies crossed paths many times and developed a mutual respect that led to their friendship. Luck acknowledged the two still chat on occasion, just not recently — and certainly not now until after the game. “I know Andrew pretty well. Great guy,” Weeden said. “He’s obviously the first pick. I think he has a chance to be a special guy and quarterback in this league. Even more importantly, he’s a better guy.”

‘Aggressive expansion’ theme sets tone for Eldora’s 60th season ROSSBURG — Thursday’s announcement and release of 2013 major event dates by Eldora Speedway officials can be summed up with two words — aggressive expansion. The 19th annual Dirt Late Model Dream (June 6-8) and the 43rd annual World 100 (Sept. 5-7) will each encompass more days, offer more racing and see a significant increase in prize money. The storied Kings Royal (July 12-13) for winged Sprint Cars will celebrate its 30th running amongst the traditional pomp and pageantry of motorsports’ most unique victory lane ceremony and its $50,000 prize. Tradition will be joined by intensified growth for the historic speed plant’s marquee dirt Late Model events, as Eldora celebrates its 60th consecutive year of racing. Saturday’s race format of six heats races and Last Chance Features to complete the 100-lap Dirt Late Model Dream and World 100 remains untarnished. The welcome news for fans and competitors is the addition of two starting positions to each event along with an increase in
starting money. While Saturday represents time-honored tradition, Thursday and Friday of each event will signify the growth. Complete racing programs will be added to each day, to make for three full nights of racing action for the 2013 Dream and World 100. For the 19th year, the Dirt Late Model Dream (June 6-8) will culminate with a chase by 28 drivers for $100,000 to the winner; the biggest of the year in dirt Late Model racing. Start money for the classic event has been increased to $2,000. Twin 25-lap A-Feature events will highlight Thursday and Friday’ race programs, with the Thursday runs each offering $2,500 to win. Friday’s payoffs will each be $5,000; with over $304,000 in prize money up for grabs over the three nights. Much of the same pattern will carry over to the World 100 (Sept. 5-7); considered to be the most prestigious and celebrated event of the year for dirt Late Model racing. In keeping up with the Earl Baltes established tradition of adding $1,000 to the winner’s payoff each year, the
2013 run for the cherished globed trophy will pay $46,000 to win and $2,000 to start. Two positions will also be added to the century grind to allow for 32 starters; boosting the posted awards to over $283,000 for the weekend. Eldora’s commitment to the best possible experience for its loyal fans and competitors attending the Dirt Late Model Dream will result in a schedule change to Dream Week. The logistics associated with the Dream’s expansion for the dirt Late Model teams that supplied the cars for the Prelude, along with speedway officials who must transition the facility, prevents the Prelude to the Dream from being included on the 2013 calendar. Advance ticket holders to the 2012 event will retain their renewal rights for the next scheduled Prelude to the Dream event going forward. Complete ticket and campsite information, along with seating and site maps, can be found at the track’s website www.EldoraSpeedway.co m, or by calling the ticket office (937) 338-3815 during normal business hours.

RECRUITING UPDATE
played in the Rose Bowl?
“It felt like we lost.”
5: What year was the first night
— Ohio State linebacker Ryan Shazier talks about Ohio State’s offense giving up 49 points against Indiana, including 15 points in the final two minutes, in a 52-49 win last Saturday night.
J.T. Barrett, a quarterback who is a 2013 Ohio State verbal commitment will have surgery to repair a torn ACL and torn meniscus. Barrett, rated the top dual threat quarterback recruit in the country by some talent evaluators, rushed for 571 yards and passed for 764 in five games for Rider (Texas) High School. Ezekiel Elliott, a running back from St. Louis John Burroughs High School, who is a 2013 Ohio State verbal commitment, has 28 touchdowns in his team’s first seven games. Tony Stevens, a wide receiver in the 2013 recruiting class, has backed off a commitment to Florida State and reportedly will visit Ohio State the week of the Michigan game.

NAME: Vince Workman HOMETOWN: Dublin OHIO STATE YEARS: 198587 HIGHLIGHTS: Wo r k m a n rushed for 1,030 yards as a sophomore in 1986. He was ineligible as a senior for accepting money from an agent. AFTER OSU: Workman was a fifth-round draft choice of the Green Bay Packers in 1989 and played eight seasons in the NFL. His best season was when he ran for 631 yards for the Packers in 1992. He is a personal trainer in Connecticut.

No. 7 Ohio State vs. Purdue, Noon, Saturday, ABC QUARTERBACKS
RECEIVERS
Braxton Miller (1,271 yards passing, 912 yards rushing) has rushed for more than 100 yards five times this season. He added to the Heisman Trophy talk around him with 367 yards total offense in a 52-49 win over Indiana. Some people say if you play two quarterbacks, you really don’t have a No. 1 QB. So what do you have if you’ve played three quarterbacks, like Purdue has this season? Robert Marve (49 of 73 for 500 yards, 4 TDs) started the season opener, suffered a torn ACL the second week of the season but has returned, wearing a brace, to back up current starter Caleb TerBush (74 of 126 for 716 yards, 8 TDs). Rob Henry (12 of 23 for 113 yards, 1 TD) also has played. Advantage: Ohio State
Corey Brown has 41 catches and has caught at least three passes in every game this season. He showed his speed on a 12-yard touchdown run on a pitchout from Miller against Indiana. Devin Smith had touchdown catches of 60 yards and 46 yards against Indiana but also had two glaring drops. The sophomore receiver has the confidence to shake off mistakes like that now, where it would have crushed him as recently as last spring, coach Urban Meyer says. For Purdue, slot receiver O.J. Ross (38 catches, 299 yards) has caught the most passes, but Antavian Edison (31 catches, 371 yards, 5 touchdowns) might be the most dangerous receiver. Gary Bush has four touchdown receptions. Advantage: Even
OFFENSIVE LINE Ohio State’s tackles, Jack Mewhort and Reid Fragel, are playing at a high level but the interior linemen need to get to that level, according to Meyer. Tight end Jeff Heuerman’s blocking, along with his pass catching ability, has moved him to the top of the depth chart at that position. Purdue’s offensive line has struggled against the three best teams it has faced — Notre Dame, Michigan and Wisconsin. In those three games, the Boilermakers have averaged 91 yards a game rushing and allowed a total of 11 sacks. Advantage: Ohio State
DEFENSIVE LINE End Nathan Williams is expected to return after missing last week’s game with a concussion. Freshman Noah Spence, a speed rusher like Williams, could be on the field at the same time as Williams this week. Purdue’s line, led by NFL prospect Kawaan Short, was supposed to be the strength of its defense. But in the last two weeks, the Boilermakers have allowed 467 yards rushing in a 38-14 loss to Wisconsin and 304 yards rushing in a 44-13 loss to Michigan. Short has nine tackles for losses and four sacks. Advantage: Purdue
LINEBACKERS Dire straits is how Meyer described the situation at linebacker that led him to move starting fullback Zach Boren into the lineup on defense last week. Boren, who had eight tackles against Indiana, will remain at linebacker for the short term and possibly the rest of the season. Will Lucas, a two-year starter, leads Purdue with 33 tackles, has 3.5 tackles for losses and an interception. Advantage: Even
DEFENSIVE BACKS
BRADLEY ROBY The 5-foot-11, 190-pound sophomore defensive back from Suwanee, Ga. has been solid on a defense that has struggled in recent weeks. He’s fourth on the team with 34 tackles, 21 solo, with two interceptions for 49 yards with a touchdown and a blocked kick.
Tackling and coverage remain issues. OSU ranks last in the Big Ten in pass defense. It has given up seven plays of 50 yards or more and 30 that have covered 20 yards or more. Last year’s defense, which struggled much of the season, allowed 37 plays of 20 yards or more in 13 games. Purdue has had its own struggles defensively and cornerback Ricardo Allen, expected to be an NFL prospect, has only one interception. Advantage: Even
RUNNING BACKS Carlos Hyde looked like the combination of power and speed Ohio State expected when it recruited him when he rushed for 156 yards in a 52-49 win over Indiana last week. The 235-pound Hyde (454 yards rushing) had four runs of more than 20 yards and turned a shovel pass from Kenny Guiton into a 14-yard touchdown catch. He has gone over 100 yards the last two games. Akeem Shavers (324 yards rushing) and Akeem Hunt (257 yards rushing) lead Purdue’s ground game. Most of Hunt’s yardage has come on two carries — an 81-yard run against Wisconsin and a 56-yarder against Eastern Michigan. Advantage: Ohio State

SPECIAL TEAMS Purdue has blocked five punts in its first six games, four of them by Short. But the Boilermakers, like Ohio State, have had trouble keeping opposing defenses away from their punter, allowing three of their own punts to be blocked punts. OSU has blocked two punts. Ohio State kicker Drew Basil is 3 for 4 on field goals but has not made a kick of longer than 35 yards this season. Freshman Paul Griggs is 3 for 3 for Purdue with a long kick of 42 yards. Advantage: Purdue

Midseason Big Ten award winners It hasn’t exactly been an awardwinning football season for the Big Ten this fall. With a month and a half left in the regular season, the conference already knows it won’t be contending for the BCS national championship. And there have been some embarrassing losses. But even in not-so-good seasons, awards are handed out. Here are some midseason awards in the Big Ten: Offensive Player of the Year: By any standard — whether you add up the numbers or you look for the player who has meant the most to his team this season — you end up selecting Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller. Runners-up: Penn State quarterback Matt McGloin, Michigan State running back Le’Veon Bell. Defensive Player of the Year: Michael Mauti of Penn State for his work defending against Big Ten opponents and for being the vocal leader in defending his team against transfers when other teams began recruiting the roster of the scandalridden Nittany Lions. Runner-up: John Simon (Ohio State) Kicker of the Year: Iowa’s Mike Meyer has hit 14 of 15 field goals in the first half of the season and has scored 54 of the Hawkeyes’ 132 points. Runner-up: Jeff Budzien (Northwestern) Coach of the Year: You can make a case for Bill O’Brien at Penn State, but only one team has a zero in the loss column. Ohio State’s Urban Meyer wins it, not just for starting 7-0 but for snapping OSU out of the depression it was in after scandal, the forced resignation of a legendary coach and a 6-7 season. Runners-up: Bill O’Brien (Penn State), Pat Fitzgerald (Northwestern) Most Overrated Team in Preseason: Sparty rhymes with party but Michigan State hasn’t had a lot of fun. After being ranked No. 13 in the preseason Associated Press poll, MSU has started 4-3 and already has two Big Ten losses. And the Spartans still have to play Michigan, Wisconsin, Nebraska and Northwestern in a row. Runner-up: Wisconsin. Most Overrated Coaching Change: Firing Ron Zook hasn’t worked out as well for Illinois as it did for Florida when it canned him and replaced him with Meyer, who won two national championships with the Gators. Illinois lost its last six games last season, which doomed Zook. But the Illini, who have lost five of their first seven games this season, don’t look any better so far for new coach Tim Beckman.

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.
