sand U.S. troops in Iraq as a training force. The U.S. also had been interested in keeping a small force to help the Iraqis deal with possible Iranian meddling. The task now is to speed the pullout of the remaining U.S. forces, nearly 40,000 in number.

Staying behind in Iraq, where bombings and other violence still occur, will be some 150-200 U.S. military troops as part of embassy security, the defense attache’s office and the office of security cooperation. That’s common practice but still a danger to American forces.

The pretrial hearing was held in Auglaize County Common Pleas Court in Wapakoneta with both Miami County Prosecutor Gary Nasal, special prosecutor for the case, and Kimpel’s attor-

ney, Michael Rumer, present.

State jobless rate holds steady at 9.1% COLUMBUS (AP) — Unemployment is holding steady in Ohio following three straight months of rising joblessness. The state’s Department of Job and Family Services said Friday that Ohio’s unemployment rate stood at 9.1 percent in September, unchanged from August. The national jobless rate for September also held at 9.1 percent during the last two months. State officials say the number of workers unemployed in

Ohio during September was 534,000, down from 536,000 in August. Meanwhile, payrolls outside of farms fell by 21,600 last month. The state lost jobs in manufacturing, leisure and hospitality, and educational and health services. Gains were seen in Ohio’s information industry and in trade, transportation, and utilities. The state’s unemployment rate had been on the rise recently after falling to a more than two-year low earlier in the year.

United Way reaches 21.3% of campaign goal With two weeks to go in the United Way 2011 campaign, the donation total now stands at $277,006 or 21.3 percent of the $1.3 million goal. Last year at this time, $190,487 had been pledged, which was 14.9 percent of the 2010 goal. “As we continue to center on a specific group of programs that the United Way supports, this week we feature our ‘Strengthening Families and Individuals’ team of agencies,” said Bob Parker, executive director of the Shelby County United Way. This group offers services through Alpha Community Center, Catholic Social Services, Consumer Credit Counseling, Family and Children First Counsel, Wilma Valentine Creative Learning Center and the Y Child Development Center.

“Two weeks ago we focused on programs that specially assist our children. Listed in that article and part of this group was Alpha Community Center, Wilma Valentine and the Y Child Development Center,” Parker said. Wilma Valentine addresses children’s daycare needs from 3 years of age up to kindergarten. The Y offers daily childcare for infants and toddlers, daycare for half-day kindergarten children and provides the supervision and activities before and after school for children who need cared for. Alpha provides a place for school-age children to go after school. While there, they may receive mentoring and tutoring assistance, plus involve themselves in activities and recreation with other children. Alpha also is the facility

where 75-100 people are served a free hot lunch. The lunches are provided by the Holy Angels Soup Kitchen and the Alpha Community Center five days a week. Alpha also provides limited food items on the weekend. Catholic Social Services provides two programs for the United Way. General mental health counseling is provided to individuals, families and groups who desire this help. The other service is the passport program for retired citizens, health services for seniors. The Consumer Credit Counseling Services provides the opportunity to receive free advice and counseling on how to address over-extended use of credit.

Ohio to have two primaries COLUMBUS (AP) — Pending an expected gubernatorial signature, Ohio will have two separate primary elections in 2012. The Ohio House of Representatives on Friday night approve a Senate move to hold state, local and U.S. Senate primaries in March, while presidential and U.S. House primaries would take place in June. The measure is intended to give lawmakers more time to come up with new congressional districts after the GOPdrawn map passed in September was put on hold while a Democraticbacked coalition tried to put it before voters for possible repeal in 2012. Lawmakers from both parties met behind closed doors on Friday,

but left with no compromise map. It was expected that Gov. John Kasich would sign the bill Friday night, in order that it go into effect before the Jan. 21 deadline for local boards of election to ship ballots to members of the military overseas. The battle is the latest in a fight that has been going on since the GOPdrawn districts were introduced Sept. 13. Last Friday, the Ohio Supreme Court ordered Secretary of State Jon Husted to accept petitions from a Democratic coalition that is seeking have voters weigh in on the maps on 2012 ballots. Ohio Democratic Party Chairman Chris Redfern told reporters on Monday that he will withdraw the petition if

legislative Republicans work with Democrats to create a map with more competitive districts — one that more accurately reflects Ohio’s political makeup, which he said is close to evenly-split. An analysis by a coalition of voter groups contends that 12 of the 16 districts were drawn around voters that favored GOP candidates, while only four leaned Democratic. The ruling from Ohio’s high court came in response centered on a move by Republicans that they argue should have shielded the bill from repeal. GOP senators added money to local elections boards to help them implement the map. Typically bills making appropriations are not subject to repeal efforts,

Gov. Kasich pushes exotic animal reform COLUMBUS (AP) — Gov. John Kasich on Friday proposed temporary measures to crack down on private ownership of exotic wild animals while tougher laws are drafted this fall. He also announced that a northeast Ohio auction house long known as a source for animals including bear and tiger cubs is continuing a selfimposed ban. The moves come after dozens of lions, bears and tigers were shot to death by police in Zanesville after their owner freed them Tuesday and then killed himself. The owner, Terry Thompson, released the animals weeks after he got out of prison on federal weapons charges and while facing financial problems and troubles managing his animal farm. The state will work with health departments and humane societies to better enforce existing laws, try to temporarily halt other auction sales and shut down unlicensed auctions under Kasich’s executive order. Ohio also will review existing permits it issues to people who own wild animals native to the state, such as black bears. Thompson had four black bear permits. Kasich said the state

will work with zoos to see which could accept confiscated animals and will try to help any that take them. The Republican governor, who let a tougher order signed by his Democratic predecessor expire in the spring, defended the approach. He said a committee has put drafting new laws on a fast track for the end of next month. “Governors can’t just invent laws,” Kasich said. “I really wish I could have the power just to enact any law I want, but we have a system of government that doesn’t do that.” An auction business in the heart of northeast Ohio’s Amish country told state officials Friday that it would continue a ban on selling exotic animals. The ban went into effect Jan. 1 at the familyowned Mt. Hope Auction, owner/manager Thurman Mullet said. An affiliated operation previously had sold bear, tiger and bobcat cubs but nothing over 20 pounds, Mullet said. “We do not accept wolves, bears, tigers, or cats of any kind, also included are large primates such as Baboons, Gorillas, Orangutans, and chimpanzees,” the auction’s website says. Kasich’s action was welcome but doesn’t go

far enough, said Wayne Pacelle, president and chief executive of the Humane Society of the United States. “The problem is not just illegal auctions,” he said. “We must ban the trade in these animals.” He said his group for years has been “deeply concerned” about the situation in Ohio, which has some of the nation’s weakest restrictions on exotic pets and among the highest number of injuries and deaths caused by them. Kasich spokesman Rob Nichols pointed out that humane societies have had the power for decades under Ohio law to bring animal cruelty charges.

but the court said it interfered with Ohioans’ right to strike down laws they don’t agree with. Democrats and voter groups have long criticized the districts — one stretches from Toledo to Cleveland and another crescent-shaped district touches parts of 13 counties from Appalachia to Amish country. They are the lines were being penned politically to preserve Republicans’ majority in Ohio’s congressional delegation. Republicans defend their maps as fair and legal. In a statement in response to Redfern, Republican House Speaker William Batchelder wrote that the maps passed both chambers with bipartisan support. In Batchelder’s House, three of 40 Democrats crossed party lines to vote for the map in a chamber of 99 representatives. In the Senate, two of 10 Democrats signed on in support of the districts, in a chamber of 33.

House approves bill on minors’ abortions COLUMBUS (AP) — The Ohio House has approved a bill that adds new requirements for judges considering whether a minor can be allowed to have an abortion without her parents approval. Under the bill passed Friday, a judge considering whether to let a girl bypass the state’s

parental consent requirement would have to ask if she understands the physical and emotional impacts of having an abortion. The judge also would be required to

ask the girl if she was coached on how to answer such questions. The bill passed the Senate in September and now heads to Gov. John Kasich’s desk.

NATION/WORLD BRIEFLY

Cain tweaks 9-9-9 plan DETROIT (AP) — Represidential publican hopeful Herman Cain on Friday redefined his tax plan to exclude the poorest Americans and to allow some deductions, abandoning the zero-exemption feature of his “9-9-9” proposal that helped win headlines but would have meant a tax increase for 4 out of 5 Americans. After sharp criticism over his one-size-fits-all plan from Republicans and Democrats alike, Cain proposed no income taxes for Americans living at or below the poverty line. He also proposed exemptions for businesses investing in “opportunity zones” as a way to give an economic jolt to rundown neighborhoods such as the one he visited in hard-hit Detroit. Standing in front of a massive abandoned train depot with broken windows and barbed wire, Cain blamed regulation for the crumbling of the nation’s cities.

Cadaver dog ‘hits’ on dead body KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — An FBI cadaver dog reacted to the scent of a dead person inside the Kansas City home where a baby girl disappeared nearly three weeks ago, according to a police affidavit released Friday. The affidavit was filed to support a search warrant request for the home of Deborah Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, who reported their 10-month-old daughter, Lisa Irwin, missing Oct. 4 and said someone must have crept into the home and taken the girl while the mother and two other boys slept. The affidavit said the dog taken into the house Monday indicated a “positive ‘hit’ for the scent of a deceased human in an area of the floor of Bradley’s bedroom near the bed.” A judge approved the warrant Tuesday and police and the FBI conducted a daylong search Wednesday. Court documents filed Friday said police took blankets, toys and clothing from the house, as well as rolls of tape and a tape dispenser. The family’s local lawyer, Cynthia Short, did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment, and police declined to discuss what they found.

Porcupine gets pierced DANVILLE, N.H. (AP) — A porcupine is getting around a bit easier after a New Hampshire Fish and Game conservation officer and local police chief helped pull an arrow out of its back. Danville Police Chief Wade Parsons tells the Eagle-Tribune () the animal had to stop walking every four or five feet Thursday. He couldn't move forward without getting caught in the brush. Conservation officer Chris McKee used a snare pole to rein in the porcupine - and took care not to come into contact with his quills. He said the arrow had missed muscle and bone. The porcupine ran off afterward. McKee said the animal had been chattering and seemed to be in good health, otherwise.

Gadhafi’s body put on display in shopping center freezer MISRATA, Libya (AP) — Moammar Gadhafi’s bloodstreaked body was stashed in a commercial freezer at a shopping center Friday as Libyans waited in line outside for a chance to see him and authorities tried to figure out where to bury the longtime dictator. The makeshift provisions for the corpse reflected the disorganization and confusion that has surrounded Gadhafi’s death. Accounts of how he died after being captured by revolutionary fighters remained contradictory, and the

top U.N. rights official raised concerns he was shot to death in custody. His burial had been planned for Friday, in accordance with Islamic traditions calling for quick interment. But the interim government delayed it, saying the circumstances of his death still had to be determined. Information Minister Mahmoud Shammam also said authorities are “debating right now what the best place is to bury him.” An AP correspondent saw the body at the shopping center in the coastal city of Misrata,

home of the fighters who killed the ousted leader a day earlier in his hometown of Sirte. The body, stripped to the waist and wearing beige trousers, was laid on a bloodied mattress on the floor of an emptied-out room-sized freezer where restaurants and stores in the center normally keep perishables. A bullet hole was visible on the left side of his head — with the bullet still lodged in his head, according to the presiding doctor — and in the center of his chest and stomach. His hair was matted and dried blood

streaks his arms and head. The body had apparently been stowed in the freezer in an attempt to keep it out of the public eye, but once the location was known, that intention was swept away in the overwhelming desire of residents to see the man they so deeply despised. Men, women and children filed in to take their picture with the body. The site’s guards had even organized separate visiting hours for families and single men. “We want to see the dog,” some chanted.

Florida senator denies embellishing family history MIAMI (AP) — In Florida, where Cuba and Fidel Castro can be highly combustible political issues, Republican Sen. Marco Rubio is defending himself against allegations he embellished his family’s story in saying his parents left the island after Castro came to power. So far, prominent members of the Cuban American community are standing by him, including the head of one of Miami’s oldest and most respected exile groups, who said Friday that he is willing to give the rising GOP star and tea-party favorite a pass. The 40-year-old freshman senator has always publicly identified with the exile community and has a strong following within it. In a campaign ad last year, he said: “As the son of exiles, I understand what it means to lose the gift of freedom.” Rubio’s biography on his Senate website previously said he was “born in Miami to Cubanborn parents who come to America following Fidel Castro’s takeover.” It has been changed to say Rubio “was born in Miami in 1971 to Cuban exiles who first arrived in the United States in 1956.” But The Washington Post

my father stayed behind wrapping up the family’s matters in the U.S. After just a few weeks living there, she fully realized the true nature of the direction Castro was taking Cuba and returned to the United States one month later, never to return.” In addition, Rubio has said publicly on previous occasions that his parents left Cuba before the revolution. Rubio’s staff said it would change his Senate website. The issue is magnified because of the formidable political clout of the Cuban exile community in Florida and the fierce passions in Miami that still surround Castro and the communist island, and because Rubio is often mentioned as a potential vice presidential pick. Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann and Newt Gingrich have said he would make a great running mate. Democrats are trying to make an issue of it, saying it calls into question Rubio’s character. The Florida Democratic Party accused Rubio of “self-serving deception,” and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee said Rubio has a credibility problem.

EXETER, N.H. (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann is losing her New Hampshire staff. As many as five staffers formally left Bachmann’s campaign this week, two people with direct Bachmann knowledge of the situation said Friday. They requested anonymity because they were not authorized to disclose internal workings of the campaign. Bachmann spokeswoman Alice Stewart disputed reports of a staff shakeup, saying: “We have a great team in New Hampshire. We haven’t

been notified that anyone’s left the campaign.” Still, Stewart said that she hadn’t been able to reach the top New Hampshire staff to confirm they were still on board. She said she had reached some junior staffers who didn’t say they were leaving. Campaign finance reports show that Bachmann, who has fallen in polls and struggled to raise money, had five paid staff in New Hampshire as recently as late September. The Republican presidential contender has largely ignored the first-in-the-nation primary state in recent months. She has been focused on Iowa and South Carolina, where her social conservative message has more appeal.

Four-decade-old murder trial faces obstacles HOUSTON (AP) — An elderly woman with an oxygen tank next to her sat in a Texas courtroom Friday after her four-decade run as a fugitive accused of murdering her husband by dousing him with hot grease came to an end. Mary Ann Rivera made her first court appearance since being returned to Houston this week from Georgia, where she had been living since fleeing a murder charge in the October 1970 death of her husband, Cruz Rivera. The 76-year-old, wearing an orange prison uniform and breathing in oxygen

from a plastic tube that snaked from her nose and around her ears to a green tank on wheels, sat in a jury box with several other prisoners while her case was reset to Nov. 15. She will remain jailed without bond. Rivera’s friends and neighbors have said her various health issues include heart, back and breathing problems. Her health required that she be driven and not flown back to Houston. Prosecutor Tina Ansari said the age of the case and possible witness issues could present some obstacles as authorities proceed in bringing Rivera to trial.

Tuesday Evening

Big brother Dave Welker, of Sidney and his little brother, Julian Barga, 10, son of Mandie Barga, of Sidney, took advantage of a beautiful fall day to do a little fishing. Julian caught his first fish. While uncertain of the type of fish, Julian was beaming with excitement. Welker and Julian have been matched through the Big Brothers Big Sister program for almost two years. In that time, Welker has introduced Julian to many new activities with their latest being fishing. According to their assigned BBBS staff member, Sheila Lundy, “This match has been a huge asset in Julian’s life. He has greatly benefitted from having a male mentor. Dave is someone that can spend time with him outside his home environment and introduce him to

new hobbies and interests.” Big Brothers Big Sisters is a United Way member, social service agency that is volunteer based.

The main focus of the BBBS agency is recruiting, careful screening, matching, and maintaining ongoing professional support for the volunteers, youth, and their families — the key to ensuring long-term positive outcomes that change lives and communities. The goal is that each match will develop into a quality relationship meant to guide each child towards becoming a confident, comand caring petent, individual.

Abuse survivor tells story Editor’s note: Gov. John R. Kasich has declared October Domestic Violence Awareness Month to raise awareness of domestic violence and the impact it has on survivors, friends, family and the community at large. As a culture we speak of survivors. Survivors of assault. Survivors of cancer. Survivors of tragedy. When addressing survivors of domestic violence, the community response becomes muddled. Speaking for herself and giving a voice to countless others, one survivor courageously shares her story: I met my abuser through a friend. I was in a lonely place in my life and he filled an empty void. I needed someone to love me. He lived in another state so I thought, “What can it harm?” We quickly became pen pals and friends. He was great! We wrote and talked about everything. I shared a lot about my past, my children, my family history and abusive relationships. He was compassionate, he listened to what I had to

I had hidden all of the potential weapons after the first incident. He went to the exact spot that I had hidden a large knife and pulled it out and told me I was not going anywhere. He made me sit on a stool in front of him while he stood over me with the knife. I knew if I made a move I was not going to get out of there alive. I needed to convince him that I loved him and I was not going to leave him to save myself. It took me the entire night and early into the morning hours.

BY PATRICIA ANN SPEELMAN pspeelman@sdnccg.com Marlene Gano, of Sidney, has been trying for 2 1/2 years to get federal legislation passed that would prohibit housing associations from denying residents the right to post U.S. service flags in their windows. She recently made a trip to Washington, D.C., to urge the process forward. “I have fought for this bill to be passed since 2009 and I will continue to push for it,” Gano said. “I am not doing this just for myself but for all of the other mothers, fathers and families who have loved ones in harm’s way. I believe it is wrong that we cannot have a simple thing as a star in the window of our homes to show our support for our troops.” As reported in the Sidney Daily News in June 2010, the commotion started in May 2009 when Gano and her husband, Richard, were told by their condo association in Canton that they could not fly a blue star flag for their son, who at the time was serving in Iraq. Richard Gano Jr. retired from the military in 2010 and now lives in Elizabethtown, Ky. The U.S. service flag, first used in World War I, is an official banner that family members of service men and women can display in their windows in honor of their sons’ or daughters’ serving in war. Blue stars honor living service people. Gold stars honor those who have died in service to the U.S. Their congressional representative at the time was John Boccieri, D-Alliance). At the Ganos’ request, he drafted a bill that would have allowed such flags to be displayed despite housing associations’ rules to the contrary. But the bill went nowhere

before Boccieri was defeated in the elections of 2010. In mid-September of this year, Gano visited with Laura E. Lynch, an aide to U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown. “Our country asks so much of our service members and their families and we will never repay the debt we owe to them,” Brown said in an email to the Sidney Daily News following Gano’s meeting. “That’s why I’ve cosponsored the Blue Star/Gold Star Flag Act of 2011. Military families should never be denied the right to display the Service Flag.” Known as the Blue Star/Gold Star Act, Senate Bill 3477 was wiped off the books when the 111th congress ended in 2010. It was reintroduced in February of this year by Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va., and is now Senate Bill 390. It was read twice and referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs. In the House of Representatives, HR Bill 2546 was passed by a voice vote in May 2010. Unless it passes a vote in the Senate before the end of the 112th congress in 2012, it will need to be introduced, yet again. “His aide suggested that we flood Sen. Brown’s office with letters, emails, and calls urging the passing of this bill in the Senate,” Gano said.

School employees donate CITY RECORD Fire, rescue $26K to United Way Employees of the Sidney City School District made generous pledges in this year’s local United Way campaign, with donations totaling more than $26,000. Through this total, which was combined with student donations, the district was able to surpass its 2011 goal of raising $13,500 for the local Shelby County United Way. Eighty-two percent of employees participated in this year’s campaign, a significant increase from the 2010 campaign. Not only do the district’s donations top their previous year total, it is also a record amount for giving district-wide. The record for the largest donations by the Sidney City School district was set back in 2006, when student and employee donations topped $22,000. Most impressive of all, reports Sidney superintendent John Scheu, is that the district’s employees have

shown this generosity despite both a smaller number of staff members and a recent pay cut. According to Scheu, in 2011 the district has 100 fewer employees than it did back in 2006. “Sidney City Schools has 45 fewer staff members this year (over the previous school year) due to the cuts made in an effort to keep our house in order financially,” explained Scheu. “Likewise, every member of our staff took an average cut of 5.8 percent in both health care and salary concessions. With that being said, it speaks volumes of the generosity of our staff and students to still make such significant contributions to the Shelby County United Way despite their sacrifices.” Scheu says the United Way campaign is an important charitable fundraising effort for Shelby County overall, but also for students living and attending school

in Sidney. “Our staff was reminded time and time again that our students, the students who reside and attend school in Sidney, benefit significantly from agencies supported by the Shelby County United Way,” said Scheu. Bob Parker, executive director of the Shelby County United Way, echoed Scheu’s sentiment in regards to the contributions made by SCS staff and students. “I am so pleased with the campaign conducted at Sidney City Schools,” Parker said. “Yes, the campaign dollar total was tremendous, a record setting amount. But to know that 82 percent of all employees participated in the campaign including the faculty, the service personnel and administration, that is what is impressive. That percentage of participation is astounding. I feel that Sidney City Schools is the benchmark for participation.”

aware of the problem, but according to Sgt. Aaron Steinke, businesses throughout the county haven’t been known to carry the substances. “We have not had a problem with it at any of the county stores that we’re aware of,” said Steinke. “We’ll probably at some point do a compliancy check but at this point there is nothing planned.” While there are no checks scheduled, Steinke said the problem still exists and the office will be vigilant in enforcing the law and will use outside resources if necessary to test suspicious substances. “The enforcement part is the law is pretty clear, said Steinke. “There’s no field testing kit that has been developed for us to check it in the field but the Montgomery County Crime lab in Dayton has the equipment to tell what a substance is.”

Vectren urges customers to check furnaces before heating season DAYTON — As colder weather grows near, Vectren Energy Delivery (Vectren) reminds its customers that it is important to evaluate the condition of their furnaces before turning them on for the winter. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates one in four furnaces has been in operation for 20 years or more and may not be performing at peak efficiency. Other than simply looking at the age of the furnace, it is important to evaluate its performance. If it has difficulty maintaining a steady temperature or even reaching a certain temperature, there might be a problem. Noticing humidity problems inside the house, back-drafts from

the unit or carbon monoxide detectors going off could also be signs that repairs or possibly a new furnace might be necessary. “It’s important to not only change your furnace filter regularly, but to also have a qualified heating contractor perform a regular maintenance check before winter,” said Vectren Energy Delivery of Ohio President Colleen Ryan. “In fact, an annual tuneup can extend the life of your unit and save 3 to 10 percent on heating costs. “ During regular furnace maintenance checks, the technician can calculate the Annual

Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE). This will indicate how much of the energy used by the furnace is actually generating heat to be circulated throughout the home or business and how much heat is escaping through chimneys, windows, doorways, etc. If the levels are dipping below the 80 percent range, repairs or replacement might be in order. The higher the AFUE, the lower the energy bills will be each month. If it is determined that a new furnace is necessary, Vectren offers a $300 rebate toward the purchase of a 94 percent AFUE or higher natural gas furnace and a $200 rebate toward the purchase of a 92 percent AFUE or higher natural

gas furnace. A list of appliances qualifying and rebate forms are available through Vectren’s Conservation Connection on www.vectren.com. “Vectren’s Conservation Connection programs offer customers a variety of information on energy efficiency tips, appliance rebates and home energy audits,” added Ryan. “You can even sign up to receive emails or text messages reminding you to replace your furnace filters.” Additional appliance rebates are available, including natural gas water heaters, boilers and programmable thermostats. Visit www.vectren.com for complete details on all rebates and energy efficiency tips for the winter heating season.

Presented by Oral Health America (OHA), the campaign’s mission is to promote the importance of dental self-care, regular dental visits, healthy food choices and avoiding tobacco products. The nationwide Fall for Smiles campaign encourages dental care providers to reach out to their patients and communities to encourage a proactive approach to dental health care. Through the support of campaign sponsors, OHA has made it easy to participate in the Fall for Smiles campaign. Dental practices, organizations and individuals can find an array of free downloads and promotional materials at www.oralhealthamerica.org/fallforsmiles. The Fall for Smiles campaign runs through October. Campaign initiatives focus on families. A recent survey released by OHA shows that parents want their children to learn about

dental care. The majority (68 percent) of parents surveyed believe that teaching their children to brush and floss twice daily is among their most important health care concerns for their children. Among those parents with school-age children, 17 percent report that their child has missed at least one day of school due to

dental-related pain or illness. Routine dental visits play a vital role in preventing oral and systemic disease and keeping future healthcare costs down. The Fall for Smiles campaign is a collaborative effort between Oral Health America and Oral Healthcare Can’t Wait, an initiative of the Dental Trade Alliance.

NURSING STUDENT Ashley Might checks vital signs of the patient simulator (iStan) during an exercise at Edison Community College. higher degree programs. At a time when nursing programs around the country are coming under fire for failing to maintain standards that are required to hold accreditation, Edison’s program has shown a consistent record of quality, college officials said. “Students coming in here have the assurance that we have met the standards set forth for excellence in nursing education,” said Stevenson. “Going through this process gives Edison an opportunity to examine our program and measure ourselves against the standards.” Those standards and the outstanding reputation of Edison’s nursing faculty and curriculum are what continue to drive students to the program, and why the program has continued its long history of success, officials said. Edison’s Nursing Program received accolades at the end of 2010, with the announcement that 100 percent of the spring graduates had passed the National Council Licensing Examination. In January 2010, 59 new students started the program.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCIS DRAKE

What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Sunday, Oct. 23, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) For the next month, many of you will be involved with inheritances, taxes, debt and insurance matters. Discussions about shared property will be on your plate. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Today, the Sun moves opposite your sign, which is as far away as it gets all year. This means you’re going to need more rest during the next month. (The Sun is your source of energy.) GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Act on your urge to get better organized. Give yourself the right tools to do a bang-up job. Buy cleaning supplies, paint, shelving, file folders, whatever. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A playful, flirtatious month ahead! Lucky you! Enjoy vacations, parties, sports and fun times with children. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Home, family and your domestic scene will be important to you in the next six weeks. It’s time to hunker down and get in touch with your roots. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Busy you! In the month ahead, you will take short trips, run errands and talk to neighbors and siblings more than usual. An interesting time! LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Focus on ways to improve your cash flow, boost your earning s and take care of whatever you already own. In the next month, you’ll think a lot about your assets and your net worth. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Today, the Sun enters your sign, where it will stay for the next month, to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year. Expect people and opportunities to come your way! Yay! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Work alone so that you can take time to regroup. With your birthday one month away, it’s time for you to strategize what you want your new year to be all about. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A popular month ahead! Accept all invitations. Join clubs, classes and organizations. Enjoy schmoozing with others for the next six weeks, because you’re popular! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) The Sun is slowly moving across the top of your chart, acting like a spotlight on you. This is why others will notice you more during the next six weeks. Be aware of this. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Do anything to travel and expand your horizons. (You want to get outta Dodge.) You want adventure and a chance to learn something new! YOU BORN TODAY You’re quick to respond because you’re mentally agile and full of ideas! You have a broad range of interests. You think on your feet and are excellent at improvising. Secretly, you always long for adventure. In fact, at times, you are almost the hero in your own movie. Your focus in the year ahead will be on partnerships and close friendships. Birthdate of: Ryan Reynolds, actor; Jessica Stroup, actress; Ang Lee, film director.

What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Monday, Oct. 24, 2011 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Conversations with partners and close friends could go sideways in a New York minute today. Just expect this. It’s a crapshoot. (Your day will not unfold as expected.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Something having to do with your job very likely will be canceled or delayed due to computer crashes, power outages or staff shortages. Definitely expect detours. Allow extra time for these delays. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is an accident-prone day for your kids or children in your care. Be aware of this, and be extra vigilant. Know where your kids are at all times. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Small appliances might break down today. Minor breakages could occur. Surprise company might drop by. In other words, something different is going to happen at home, so stay on your toes.

104 104

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is an accident-prone day for your sign, so slow down and take it easy. Give yourself wiggle room to cope with the unexpected, because it will happen! (Forewarned is forearmed.) VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Keep an eye on your cash flow today. You might find money; you might lose money. You also might lose a possession through breakage or theft. Count your change and check your bill. Got it? LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Discussions with others will yield a few surprises today. People are independent and rebellious. You hardly know what to expect! (Sheesh.) SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Secrets could come out today. Just be prepared for this. Hopefully, they’re not secrets about you. (Naturally, you’ll be discreet.) SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) A friend might surprise you today or, alternatively, you could meet someone new who is very unusual or bizarre. (At least it won’t be a boring day.) CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Something might happen that feels like it’s absolutely the last

straw today. Nevertheless, don’t quit your day job. Guard against knee-jerk reactions. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Avoid discussions about politics, religion or racial issues today. Travel plans might be canceled. Anything could happen today, because plans are constantly changing. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Make friends with your bank account. Surprising news about shared property, taxes, debt or anything you own jointly with others is possible today. Stay abreast of things so that you are prepared. YOU BORN TODAY You’re the consummate perfectionist. Whatever you do, you approach with intensity, because you intend to get it right. You can be dramatic, over-the-top and theatrical, but you never overlook details. You often are dominant in your personal relationships; however, others love your energy and are willing to work hard to fulfill your expectations. In the year ahead, an important choice will arise for you. Choose wisely. Birthdate of: Kevin Kline, actor; Denise Levertov, poet; Shenae Grimes, actress.

Tigers dominate Rockets VERSAILLES — Anna’s slim hopes for a playoff spot were dashed by the Versailles Tigers here Friday night in a 33-0 verdict in Midwest Athletic Conference football action. The loss dropped Anna to 54 on the season heading into the final game of the year Friday at home against Parkway. Versailles moved to 7-2 on the year and greatly enhances its chances for a postseason berth in Division V. The Tigers are at St. Henry Friday. The Tigers moved the ball almost at will in the first half in building a 19-0 lead. After the Tigers moved the ball out to midfield to start the game, Anna forced a punt but was backed up to its own 10. The Rockets went threeand-out and Versailles got excellent field position at the Anna 38. Two plays later, Nick Campbell hit Aaron McNeilan from 25 yards out for a 7-0 lead. Anna got a big pass play to Chandon Williams on its next drive, but wound up turning the ball over on downs at the Versailles 23. The Tigers took over and went to work, with Campbell completing three straight passes. On an incomplete pass, Anna was called for roughing Campbell, putting the ball on the Rocket 37. Campbell scrambled for six then hit Mike yards, Rutschilling on a 31-yard scoring strike for a 13-0 lead. Versailles intercepted a pass on the first play of the ensuing drive, but came up a foot short on a fourth down play. Anna took over on its own five and Jay Meyer hit Cole Furgason for 58 yards down deep into Tiger territory. But the Rockets fumbled the ball away and Versailles took over again. The Tigers drove to the

ANNA’S COLE Furgason tries to stiff-arm Luke Schlater of Versailles in Midwest Athletic Conference football action at Versailles Friday. The Rockets lost to drop to 5-4 on the year. Anna seven, but a third-down snap went through Campbell’s legs for a loss back to the 26. However, on fourth-and-21 from that spot, Campbell hit Ethan Bruns for a 26-yard scoring strike to make it 19-0, which is how it stood at the half. Campbell was 13-for-19 in the first half for 193 yards. Meyer was 9-for-18 for 175 yards, but the Tiger defense held Anna to just 24 yards rushing in the first two periods.

It looked like the second half would be scoreless, after Anna again penetrated deep into Versailles territory but came up empty in the third quarter. Midway through the final period, however, a Versailles punt was downed at the Anna one, and on the first play following the punt, Mitch Campbell picked off a short pass and returned it six yards for a touchdown.

Jackets lose to Rams Powerful Trotwood rolled to a 48-6 victory over the Sidney Yellow Jackets in Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division football action Friday at Sidney Memorial Stadium. The loss leaves Sidney at 09 on the year with Troy coming to town Friday to finish off the season. Trotwood is now 9-0 and faces Vandalia in its regularseason finale. Sidney got off to a rough start, with Trotwood’s Darion Heath scoring on an eightyard run with 7:38 left in the first quarter. The Jackets then fumbled the ball away on their own 12, and Trotwood scored again, this time on a five-yard run by Heath with 6:39 left. Sidney went three-and-out and Trotwood got another score, on a 17-yard run by Ashton Jackson for a 20-0 lead after one quarter. Sidney benefitted from a roughing-the-punter penalty on its next possession, and got a 43-yard pass from Jordan Fox to Dezmond Hudson to Trotwood’s 14. But the Jackets missed a 32-yard field goal attempt. The Jackets held on the next series thanks to a good pass breakup by Travis West. But again, the Jackets couldn’t move and turned it over on downs. This time, the Rams drove 37 yards and got a three-yard run by Jackson for a 27-0 lead.

Brandewie gets five touchdowns in Loramie rout DAYTON — As expected, the Fort Loramie Redskins cruised to an easy M e t r o Buckeye Conference win Friday night in high school football, 65-6 over Brandewie winless Dayton Jefferson. The Redskins are now 8-1 after their eighth win in a row and go to 30 in the MBC. They can wrap up the league title Friday night at home against county rival Lehman. “We were sluggish in the first half,” said Loramie head coach Matt Burgbacher. “I can’t say we played real well early. So we told them at the half that we needed to come out and play like it was a new game. And the kids did that. We came out and got 28 points in the third quarter and the kids played with a lot of intensity.” The Redskins didn’t need the points, holding a 30-0 lead at the half after scoring two touchdowns in each quarter, and adding a safety in the second period. The first-quarter scores came from Tyler Zeis on a five-yard run and Cory Brandewie on a 21-yard pass from Seth Guillozet. In the second period,

Brandewie had both scores, on runs of 44 and three yards. The Redskins then scored four times in the third quarter, two more by Brandewie to give him five touchdowns on the night. Brent Goldschmidt got one for the defense, picking off a pass and returning it 30 yards for a score. Delaunte Thornton and Craig Fullenkamp also had second-half scores, Fullenkamp’s coming on a 61-yard run. Zeis, meanwhile, was perfect on all nine of his PAT kicks.

Bremen trailed just 23-21 late in the game, and had the ball. But a pass was picked off by Coldwater’s Siefring, who returned it 57 yards for the clinching score. Bremen trailed just 14-7 at the half, the score coming on a 32-yard pass from Elliott Westerbeck to Ben Chaney. Coldwater took a 23-7 lead into the final period, but the Cardinals stunned the Cavs with two scores, one on a two-yard run by

Aaron Clune, with a successful two-point conversion, and another on a 29-yard pass from Westerbeck to Chaney again to cut the lead to 23-21.

Sidney High graduate and junior goalkeeper Molly Schriber did all she could for the Heidelberg women’s soccer team in a 1-0 loss to John Carroll this week. She made an Ohio Athletic Conference season-high nine saves in the match, upping her team-leading saves total to 68 for the season. Heidelberg was outshot 7-0 in the first 24 minutes of the game, but a stingy defense limited the amount of open looks and Schriber had four saves in that time. What made Heidelberg’s effort even more impressive was that seven starters were suspended for the game, leaving 10 field players and Schriber in the goal, with the backup goalie playing in the field at times. Behind Schriber, the underclassmen nearly pulled out the victory. And Schriber’s performance came against the team leading the OAC in points scored and shots on goal taken.

Amanda Francis, Fairlawn Francis is about to begin her senior season at Northwestern Ohio in women’s basketball, and goes into the season as a preseason All WolverineHoosier Athletic Conference first-team selection.

Hall of Fame obtains rare collection CANTON, OHIO (AP) — The Pro Football Hall of Fame has obtained a rich collection of rare documents from the NFL's early years. The family of Edward "Dutch" Sternaman, a former player, coach and co-owner of the Chicago Bears, has donated the comprehensive collection of original documents — the most complete set of its type in the Hall of Fame’s collection.

Included are accounting ledgers, hand-written notes, correspondence, photos, game programs, play-byplay charts, coaching diagrams, books and other information that chronicles the first decade of the NFL and the Bears. Both were founded in 1920. The collection also includes original documents for the signing of Red Grange in 1925 and his ensuing cross-coun-

try barnstorming tour with the Bears. “This is without a doubt one of the most significant collections of documents that has ever been donated to the Hall of Fame,” Steve Perry, the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Presi-

dent/Executive Director, said Friday. “These rare documents are an incredible treasure and will be properly preserved by the Hall of Fame for the benefit of future generations of football scholars and fans.”
