Answers to Syria question no clearer WASHINGTON (AP) — How would the U.S. punish Syria for a ghastly chemical weapons attack without getting drawn into another war?

It’s the biggest of many unanswered questions that lawmakers had for the Obama administration on Day Five of the White House’s sales pitch for a “limited” retaliatory strike. At the second hearing on the request for authorization to strike, lawmakers complained that they don’t know much more about President Barack Obama’s goal, his contingency plans or much else than they did on Saturday, when the president abruptly announced he’d seek congressional approval.

What, members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee asked Obama’s top advisers,

does the White House mean by a “limited” campaign?

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel gave some indication, saying the strikes could cost “tens of millions” of dollars.

Are you sure Syrian President Bashar Assad wouldn’t strike back, asked Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Ariz.?

“Our partners and the United States military is postured to deter his retaliation,” said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

In Syria’s complex civil war, who are the bad guys and who does the U.S. trust?

“This is an imperfect situation. There are no good options here. This is complicated,” Hagel said. “There is no clarity.”

CLEVELAND (AP) — Residents in the tough Cleveland neighborhood where three women were secretly imprisoned for a decade reacted with scorn and grim satisfaction Wednesday after Ariel Castro hanged himself in his cell barely a month into a life sentence.

Even the prosecutor joined in.

“This man couldn’t take, for even a month,

a small portion of what he had dished out for more than a decade,” said Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty.

Castro, 53, was found hanging from a bedsheet Tuesday night at the state prison in Orient, corrections spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said.

Prison medical staff performed CPR before Castro was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The coroner’s office said it was suicide.

“He took the coward’s way out,” said Elsie Cintron, who lived up the street from the former school bus driver.

“We’re sad to hear that he’s dead, but at the same time, we’re happy he’s gone, and now we know he can’t ask for an appeal or try for one if he’s acting like he’s crazy.”

As the shocking news sank in, prison officials

faced questions about how a high-profile inmate managed to commit suicide while in protective custody. Just a month ago, an Ohio death row inmate killed himself days before he was to be executed.

Ohio prisons director Gary Mohr announced a review of Castro’s suicide and whether he had received proper medical and mental health care.

State police are also

investigating.

The announcement came after the American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio called for a full investigation.

“As horrifying as Mr. Castro’s crimes may be, the state has a responsibility to ensure his safety from himself and others,” executive

n Continued from page 2 during his stint as a staff sargent in the United States Army from 1944 through the end of the war. He went overseas in 1944, serving mainly in the 42nd Rainbown Infantry Division, which captured a concentration camp in Germany. Tweed stayed in Europe after the war for occupational duties. His time abroad also included time in General George Patton’s Third Army Division, along with stints in the sixth and seventh Army divisions.

At the time of his return, though, Tweed didn’t really even consider getting the medals. His reasoning behind not requesting them was out of pure respect for his peers who lost their lives overseas.

“Other guys have done just as much or more than me, and I just don’t want to be looked upon as a hero,” Pweed said.

“The guys who are buried out there are the heroes.”

But when he grew older, Tweed, now 92 years old, had a change of heart.

“He told me he was interested in getting his medals; he was kind of against it back at the time,” Knife explained.

“They just built a WWII vets museum at the Troy Masonic Temple. He said all the guys were wearing medals when they were going there, and he wished he could get them.”

That’s when Knife stepped in and did something about it.

The process began in Febuary of 2012 with a let-

ter to the White House from Knife. Through the help of many people, including House Representative John Boehner and Tristan Weis, the journey ended on Christmas Day of 2012, when Knife presented Pweed with his medals.

“I thought he could get them,” explained Knife, a 2003 graduate of Troy High School.

“I emailed the White House, both senators in Ohio, (John) Boehner. After a few months, John Boehner and his team contacted him and helped us get them. I had him sign a few papers, and I didn’t really tell them what they were for.

Within a few months he got them.”

“Danny showed up, and he surprised me,” Pweed

recalled. “He asked to see my discharge, so I gave him my papers. He sent a copy of my discharge to John Boehner and asked to get my medals. I was totally surprised when he came back with the medals.

“I got a bunch of nice medals; Danny even had a nice little case to put them in. The whole thing was his idea, and I appreciate him and what he did for me.”

And Knife was happy to give the man he called his ‘best friend’ something that was long overdue.

“I tell you what, it had been 50 some years (since the war), and I could just tell he was tickled to death,” Knife said.

Sympathy n Continued from page 2 director Christine Link said.

Through a spokeswoman, Castro’s three victims declined to comment.

Castro was sentenced Aug. 1 to life in prison plus 1,000 years after pleading guilty to 937 counts, including kidnapping and rape, in a deal to avoid the death penalty.

At his sentencing, he told the judge: “I’m not a monster. I’m sick.”

Castro had been in a cell by himself in protective custody, meaning he was checked every 30 minutes, because of fears his notoriety could lead to attacks from other inmates, authorities said.

He was not on a suicide

watch, which entails constant supervision, Smith said. She would not say why.

Officials would not say whether he left a suicide note.

Castro had been on a suicide watch for a few weeks in the Cuyahoga County jail, before he pleaded guilty and was turned over to state authorities, and police said after his arrest that they had found a yearsold note in which he talked about suicide.

But authorities at the jail dropped the suicide watch in June after concluding he was unlikely to take his own life.

Castro’s captives —

Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight — disappeared separately between 2002 and 2004, when they were 14, 16 and 20. They were rescued from Castro’s run-down house May 6 after Berry broke through a screen door.

Elation over the women’s rescue turned to shock as details emerged about their captivity.

Castro fathered a child with Berry while she was being held. The girl was 6 when she was freed.

Investigators also disclosed that the women were bound with chains, repeatedly raped and deprived of food and bathroom facilities.

Knight told authorities that Castro impregnated her repeatedly and made her miscarry by starving her and punching her in the belly. Berry said she was forced to give birth in a plastic kiddie pool.

On Castro’s old street Wednesday, freshly planted landscaping was in bloom on the site where his house stood before it was demolished by the city a month ago.

Castro “took the easy way out,” said James King, who lives down the street. “He knew what he did was wrong, so he killed himself.”

No one answered the door at the home of Castro’s mother and

brother.

Castro’s lawyers tried unsuccessfully to have a psychological examination of Castro done in jail before he was turned over to state authorities, his attorney, Jaye Schlachet, s aid Wednesday.

Schlachet would not comment further.

Michael Casey, director of the Suburban Law Enforcement Academy outside Chicago, said a notorious figure like Castro would have been more apt to be harmed by other inmates, citing the case of Jeffrey Dahmer, the Milwaukee cannibal who was beaten to death in prison in 1994.

He said that given the

way Castro managed to hide his crimes for so long, he probably would have been able to conceal any suicidal tendencies from his jailers.

The prison where Castro hanged himself, a so-called reception center for newly arrived inmates, is crowded with nearly twice the 900 prisoners it was meant to hold, according to state figures.

Stress is high and assaults are up at the prison, said Tim Shafer, an official with the guards’ union. But he said: “Just like out in the public, suicides happen, and you just can’t prevent every one of them.”

Medical pot looks to ‘color inside the lines’ HELENA, Mont.

(AP) — Medical marijuana businesses worried that federal agents will close them down now have a roadmap to avoid prosecution, courtesy of the Justice Department’s decision to allow legal pot in Colorado and Washington state.

The agency said last week that even though the drug remains illegal under federal law, it won’t intervene to block state pot laws or prosecute as long as states create strict and effective controls that follow eight conditions.

“The DOJ is saying you guys need to color inside the lines,” said Teri Robnett, founder of the Cannabis Patients Action Network, a Westminster, Colo.based medical marijuana advocacy group. “If you color inside the lines, we’ll let you keep your crayons.

“If you don’t, we can come in and take your crayons away,” she said.

The DOJ’s policy memo comes after voters in Colorado and Washington last fall passed

first-in-the-nation laws to allow recreational pot use and follows similar agency statements in recent years that helped spur the creation of medical marijuana systems across the U.S. In states like Montana and California, an explosion in the use of medical marijuana spawned a backlash, stricter laws and tougher federal enforcement.

U.S. Attorney Benjamin Wagner, whose office covers the Eastern District of California, said more than half of the cases his office prosecutes comply with the criteria set out by the policy memo. Wagner said the memo wasn’t so much a message to the marijuana industry but one to ensure there is better collaboration between state and federal authorities.

In California, “some cities and counties are banning (dispensaries), while others are licensing them and encouraging them,” Wagner said. “It’s hard to see how the current system fits the description laid out in the memo.”

With legal, recreational pot on the horizon in two states, the memo is raising questions about the future of medical marijuana not just in Washington and Colorado, but the 18 other states and Washington, D.C., that allow it.

While advocates say it’s too early to gauge the impact of the new recreational pot push, there were signs it could hurt medical marijuana.

In Washington, the governor and many lawmakers were already looking to rein in the state’s unregulated medical marijuana market because they worried its untaxed cannabis would undercut the highly taxed recreational pot.

There may be some attrition in the beginning, as bargainhunting medical marijuana users or those wanting to avoid the government bureaucracy of state registries dabble in the recreational market, Robnett said. But most will stay because the medical strains are tailored for their illnesses, can be more potent and don’t necessarily

create a high while relieving their symptoms, she said.

The DOJ memo outlines eight areas of “marijuanarelated conduct” that it won’t tolerate, from distribution to kids to use of firearms and drugged driving. Marijuana advocates say they welcome them as guidelines for medical marijuana states to tailor their laws and a way for other states to enact new laws without fear of federal reprisal.

Advocates say states with even regulations that meet or exceed regulations in those areas should not be worried about increased federal scrutiny. “It should give growers and dispensers a level of comfort that the federal government is becoming clearer in what their guidance is to U.S. attorneys,” said Roseanne Scotti, the New Jersey director of the Drug Policy Alliance.

In Oregon, state health officials are drawing up regulations for a new medical marijuana program for next year. U.S. Attorney Amanda Marshall has

said the state will need to create strong teeth when it writes the regulations, and make sure it can enforce them.

For those who do color outside the lines, the repercussions can be harsh.

In Montana, a 2004 voterapproved medical pot law was vague on local law-enforcement’s abilities to regulate commercial activity. The feds stepped in when the number of registered pot providers topped 4,800 with billboard ads and huge greenhouses operating in the open.

Raids in 2011 led to the convictions of 33 providers and, coupled with a major rewrite of the state law, led to the demise of most commercial sales.

U.S. Attorney Mike Cotter, who orchestrated the crackdown and vows to prosecute large pot providers, said the new DOJ memo is “not going to affect the way we do business here in Montana.”

Syria n Continued from page 2 ernment denies responsibility and says rebels fighting to topple Assad’s regime were responsible.

Less than a week after Obama pivoted from what many thought was an imminent unilateral strike to campaign for Congress’ nod, his advisers shuffled among three hearing rooms in an otherwise largely deserted Capitol complex to press the case that if the United States did not answer Assad for the Aug. 21 attack, no one would.

By Wednesday, the White House had won over three of the top four congressional leaders in the two parties, but it remained unclear whether rank-and-file lawmakers, especially Republicans, would follow when the full Congress resumes next week after a fiveweek recess.

Those returning a week early complained about the vagueness of the administration’s strategy and goals and repeatedly questioned whether U.S. troops would again be in harm’s way in a new conflict.

“There will be no boots on the ground,” Secretary of State John Kerry repeated. And while

Dempsey is correct that certain acts are technically acts of war, “we are not asking America to go to war,” Kerry said.

The strikes remained a hard sell. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee that in May voted 15-3 in favor of providing military aid to Syrian rebels mustered a 10-7 majority for what will likely be a cruise missile strike launched from U.S. ships in the Mediterranean Sea. Back in the House, the hearing churned into a fifth hour in the chilly, litfor-TV committee room.

At one point, Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., invoked other Obama administration headaches — the

asked Duncan, who was elected in the tea partyfueled Republican wave of 2010.

Visibly irritated, Kerry responded: “I volunteered to fight for my country, and that wasn’t a cautious thing to do when I did it.” Kerry is a decorated Vietnam veteran, commanding a Navy swift boat.

“I’m not going to sit here and be told by you that I don’t have a sense of what the judgment is in respect to this,” Kerry added, his voice rising slightly. “We’re talking about people being killed by gas, and you want to go talk about Benghazi.”

killings of Americans in Benghazi, Libya, the Internal Revenue Service’s tough scrutiny of conservative groups seeking tax breaks, and domestic information gathering by the National Security Agency.

Duncan said Kerry “has never been one who’s advocated for anything other than caution when involving U.S. forces in past conflicts,” and that the same is true of Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.

“Is the power of the executive branch so intoxicating that you have abandoned past caution in favor of pulling the trigger on a military response so quickly?”

What was clear from two days of hearings on Obama’s proposed strikes against Syria was how much remains muddled about the mission, or at least not shared with a public that remains skeptical of getting involved in another military conflict after more than a decade of war.

3 Edison Community College celebrating 40 years of service

September 5, 2013

Editor’s Note: This is the first in a five-part series of stories highlighting Edison Community College as it celebrates its 40th year of service.

Focusing first on Edison’s history, this piece is being submitted on behalf of the college’s board of trustees.

PIQUA — Celebrating 40 years of service, Edison Community College was chartered to meet a demand for high-quality, affordable college education, focused on serving the residents of Darke, Miami and Shelby counties. As has often been the case, the region was visionary in its timing, as Edison was chartered in 1973, as the first state general and technical college in Ohio under provisions of the Ohio Revised Code. The college was chartered without special local taxation as a twoyear, public, coeducational, state-supported institution of higher learning with privileges of offering studies in the arts and sciences, technical education, and adult continuing education.

Several events were essential to the establishment of the college. On Jan. 12, 1973, the Ohio Board of Regents authorized the development of a general and technical college in the Darke, Miami and Shelby county area.

On May 18 of that year, the regents also granted authority to operate as an approved state-supported institution with the issuance of a charter in the original college name, Edison State General and Technical College. Prior to those occurrences, the Ohio Legislature had appropriated $4 million dollars for constructing and equipping facilities for the permanent campus.

A 130-acre site east of Piqua was donated for the campus in December 1973 from the HartzellNorris Trust. Edison’s Board of Trustees selected Freytag and Freytag of Sidney as architects for the first campus building. Following the governor’s appointment of

the nine-member Board of Trustees, action was taken to assure the offering of college courses in the fall of 1973, while the permanent campus was being designed and constructed.

Agreements were signed with the Piqua Board of Education for the temporary use of facilities at Spring Street Elementary School and the Central High School and with Wright State University for providing instruction in the lowerdivision general studies courses. Under these arrangements, 309 students enrolled in 30 different courses during the first term of the 19731974 academic year.

Edison moved into its now familiar campus off Looney Road in 1976, and work was immediately started on a 1.5 million dollar expansion, which had been appropriated in 1975. On Nov. 4, 1977, by legislative enactment, the college became Edison State Community College. Another appropriation of $250,000 for use in constructing athletic fields was awarded during the same year.

By the fall quarter of 1978, the college was the fastest growing twoyear college in Ohio with 1,727 students enrolled and more than 150 personnel employed. In addition to increasing its own facilities, the college transferred 20 acres of land to the Piqua Board of Education for construction of a new high school, further contributing to the modern educational complex that exists today, consisting of Edison State Community College,

Piqua Junior and High Schools and the Upper Valley Career Center.

Within six years of its establishment, the college had enrolled a total of 2,300 credit and noncredit students. The addition of several programs increased the areas of technical study to 19. In keeping with the college’s commitment to provide better education opportunities to the community it serves, a permanent Darke County Campus in Greenville was opened in the spring of 1980, and continues to operate, though it has been renovated to ensure that technology and other services are comparable to those on the Piqua campus.

The most recent addition to the Piqua campus was when the Emerson Regional Center of Excellence was dedicated on May 3, 2007. The Center is LEED certified and now hosts classes, functions, and an area dedicated to the College’s namesake, Thomas Alva Edison.

Edison’s currently serves more than 4,000 unduplicated students per year, who choose from more than 30 technical fields of study, baccalaureate transfer programs, developmental course work, and Business and Industry offerings that provide on-site training, career preparation, and personal enrichment.

With so much to offer and with ongoing processes that assure consistent quality, Edison continues to have a sustained, significant impact in the region. Since the doors opened in 1973, Edison has served more than 71,000 students, boasts 9,796 graduates and is excited to be awarding its 10,000th credential during this 40th anniversary year.

Next week, the focus will shift to Edison’s mission over the past 40 years, including access, opportunity and the college’s brand promise of “A personal experience, a rewarding education.”

Fundraiser to help Hospice RUSSIA — On Aug. 24, Cruizer’s Bar and Grill in Russia hosted its third annual car show to benefit Hospice of Miami County.

Susan Hemm, marketing and development coordinator for Hospice, was the grateful recipient of a $3,263 donation.

Hospice, being volunteer driven, uses benefits such as this to help maintain the structure that it takes to keep the quality of assistance for those who require it.

With the help and support of other sponsors, the event more than doubled the money that was donated last year.

Music was provided by Tom Landsiedel, who also announced the door prize/ silent auction winners and the car show trophy recipients.

Trophies were awarded to the top four places and to the People’s Choice award winner. First place went to Dave Fullenkamp for his 1966 Ford Galaxie, second place went to Kenny Davis for his 1955 Chevy Pickup Truck, third place went to Brad Francis for his 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle and fourth place went to Tom Demmitt for his 1971 Chevrolet Nova and the People’s Choice award went to Ed Silvers for his 1967 Pontiac Tempest.

Lori Tomlian, one of the owners of Cruizer’s, put a lot of time and effort into organizing the event and by obtaining many donations from numerous businesses in the surrounding areas.

Her efforts were supported by the other owners and the staff at Cruizer’s.

PERSPECTIVE

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Clarion-Ledger on Syria: Regardless of motives, President Barack Obama made the right decision in seeking congressional support for a military response to Syria’s (alleged) use of weaponized gas on rebels.

While history and precedent provide a clear enough path for the president to make the decision himself, this particular incident at this particular time holds tremendous importance for the future of the Middle East and for the direction of our country.

Syria is but a minor player among Arab nations, but its allies are strong. Furthermore, we have seen all too well how American intervention without well-planned strategies for post-success actions can make matters far worse than before. Look to Iraq.

Look to Egypt.

Compound this with the increasing reports of a strengthening al-Qaida presence in Syria, and we must be more vigilant than ever in vetting any military response that leaves Syrian power in place — which is the extent of any military reaction that most even would consider supporting.

At home, the divide among our national leaders is clear, and it worsened by the divide among our people. If the backlash against former President George W. Bush was bad after his decision to invade Iraq, the backlash against Obama for launching a military action against Syria could be devastating to our domestic agenda.

With Great Britain unlikely to join us in a military response and with the United Nations deciding against any retaliatory action, Obama would be unwise to move forward alone. Congress must be his ally in this action, or this action must not take place.

Congress, however, now has a bigger job to do.

There is no good decision, no right and no wrong. And while the president could have made it himself, he was right to heed the calls of congressional leaders and many Americans who said he should seek the approval of Congress.

This will now be an American decision, one made by all we have elected to represent us, lead us and protect us.

News & Observer, Raleigh, N.C., on NFL brain injuries: Next week the National Football League begins play in earnest, and across the nation millions of Americans will welcome another season of this thrilling, but violent sport.

But this season will be different. It is the first in which the NFL has financially conceded that the brain-rattling hits that give football its powerful and, for the NFL, immensely lucrative appeal, may be taking a serious toll on players. Last week, the league agreed to pay $765 million to settle legal claims brought by more than 4,500 players and their families over concussionrelated brain injuries.

The settlement, which will cover all 18,000 former NFL players, was reached by court-appointed mediators.

Yet the federal judge who must approve the settlement, Anita B. Brody in Philadelphia, could provide more help for past, current and future players at all levels of football by rejecting this tentative agreement.

For one, the settlement is too small. The NFL will generate a projected $10 billion in revenue this year. Commissioner Roger Goodell recently said he wants revenue to reach $25 billion by 2027. Should a payment of less than $1 billion — notably without an admission of guilt — be enough to make the long-term consequences of the NFL’s game go away?

Secondly, the settlement does more to slow progress on the problem than to resolve it.

The settlement provides $10 million for research into footballrelated brain injuries. Much more is needed to ascertain the safety of the game as it is played not only in the NFL, but also at all levels down to youth football.

The NFL and contact sports at all levels have stopped dismissing hits to the head as simply having one’s “bell rung.”

For all the money generated by the NFL, surely more than $10 million can go to studying and preventing brain injuries that are obvious, documented and ongoing.

LETTERS Concert was a great thing for Troy To the Editor: My wife and I were both born and raised here in Troy. After going away to college, we made teh very easy decision to return to Troy to start our lives together and begin a family. It is almost cliche to say that Troy is a great place to raise a family. The residents of Troy have always had a great pride in our brand.

In hindsight of the recent invasion of our city by thousands of music enthusiasts, I felt that a reflection on our community could be beneficial. Building up to this event, the critics, complainers and pessimists weighed in. Rumors aside, the buildings did not burn to the ground and the levees held (hundreds of campers).

As some people focused on what may

go wrong with the Gentlemen of the Road event, they failed to see the positive. I am not talking about the undoubted financial event, but instead, the pride we should have in sharing our city with the world.

As my wife and I stood on the track at Troy Memorial Stadium both Friday and Saturday nights, I took time to look around and soak it all in. It was special! I believe that each and every one of our guests took a piece of our great community with them.

For one weekend, thousands and thousands of people found out what I have always known and what some youth in our city often miss — that Troy, Ohio USA is the COOLEST place to be!

Gentlemen of the Road Stopover means partying with Vikings While I’ve certainly drank root beers with Vikings (the Miami East variety) before, never had I drank root beers with Vikings (the ship-sailing, war hammer-carrying variety) before.

Until this past weekend, that is.

The Gentlemen of the Road Stopover Tour rolled into Troy this past weekend, bringing with it tens of thousands of fans from all around the country and the world. Included in that mass of humanity were four young men from Iceland, who had the furthest distance to travel in order to hear their favorite band play.

Not only did they get a chance to attend the concert, but they also were afforded the opportunity to have lunch with Troy Mayor Michael Beamish and other Troy officials. Mayor Beamish asked me if I would like to attend this lunch and meet with the young men. Never one to avoid the opportunity to create a possible international incident — also, never one to avoid the opportunity for a free lunch — I jumped at the opporutnity.

Going into my meeting with our foreign friends, my knowledge of Iceland was essentially this: They probably have a lot of ice there.

So in an effort to learn more and make our visitors feel more at home, I decided to try to learn a few Icelandic

phrases before our meeting. So the the Troy Daily News offices for the night before, I stayed up until the bulk of the weekend’s events — they wee hours of the morning watching pretty much love everything about YouTube videos and trying to learn our country. their language.

By the time 4 a.m. rolled around, they asked if we had any more requests. At that point — having started our work day at 9 a.m. the previous day — I think our biggest request was, “Can we go to sleep now.”

More than any of that, however, what I found our visitors loved most about the United States is the women.

All of them. Most of my time with our Icelandic friends was spent trying to pry them away from the beautiful young women to whom they were offering marriage proposals. And yes, they did offer several young women marriage proposals — including the daughter of one of my co-workers.

All told, our Icelandic friends were, by far, the most memorable portion of the Gentlemen of the Road Stopover Tour for me, personally. I made four new friends whose names I’ll never be able to spell or pronounce. They even asked if I’d come visit them in Iceland at some point.

Which is fine, provided I don’t ever have to eat horse meat.

Kalamazoo man’s banana car an ad hit KALAMAZOO, Mich.

(AP) — “It’s a banana car!”

Dozens of porch-sitting residents waved to Tom Brown with his arm hanging off the side of his Big Banana Car as he cruised recently around Kalamazoo.

Brown, promoter of the car, said his obsession started with his friend Steve Braithwaite when they met in Muskegon selling aerial photographs and address signs together.

Then, they looked for their next project.

A seemingly typical Denny’s breakfast hangout turned into Brown’s future career.

“He pulled in and I said, ‘Dude, this is it. This is what we’re looking for.

This is our next project,’” Brown, of Kalamazoo, told the Kalamazoo Gazette ( http://bit. ly/16QNfaw ).

Originally from Oxford, England, hot rod mechanic Braithwaite designed the 4-year-old Big Banana Car from a 1993 F-150

with added fiberglass, foam, wood and other materials.

“The guy is brilliant.

Just brains,” said Brown, who now looks for businesses who want to use the car for advertising.

“To compare it to a billboard, it blows it away.”

Although the car only gets 8 miles per gallon around town, Brown said he has received inquiries from Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami and Houston, where the banana won first place in an art car show.

Brown said the purpose of the car, which stretches to 22 feet long and seats three passengers, is to “make people laugh, have a good time, put smiles on their faces, promote a product, to get this around the world with Steve and to build the next car.”

Visa complications and “other paperwork” somewhat hindered the worldwide travel dream, he said, but since the Big Banana Car has had success marketing

with Planet Smoothie, Chiquita and Del Monte, the duo hopes to continue its quirky car business.

“Anywhere I pull in, it’s bees to honey,” Brown said. “The goal is to use (the Big Banana Car) to pay for the next car and down the line.”

The successor to the banana may be a submarine sandwich car, if business goes well, Brown said.

“The funniest thing for me is two things: when people say ‘It’s a big banana car!’ and the other one is when there is no reaction at all,” Brown said. “There is never road rage when the banana is on the road.”

He was married January 15, 1950, for 49 years to Trudy (Burleson) Mullen, who preceded him in death.

Try some delicious Pepperoni Bread

Last week was the last week the children were be home all day. School doors opened Tuesday.

Where have all these summer months gone? Verena, 15, finished her eighth grade year last term, so she will be home now to help me. Susan, 17, would like to get a full time job, but I would like to teach her how to put together a dress, shirt, pants, etc.

It makes it so much easier for me when they can cut out and sew their own clothes and help with the boys shirts and pants.

It takes time and patience to teach them but feels rewarding once you see they can sew together their own dresses.

Elizabeth, 19, finished a pants for Timothy last night. She sewed herself a new dress and Timothy a shirt and pants that they wore on Labor Day to the family gathering at brother

sewn for the boys and a dress for Lovina by Labor Day weekend, but I didn’t quite make it.

Maybe I’ll get it all done for the Graber reunion in October.

It seems if you make a deadline for getting something done, it goes faster.

I think it would have been possible to get everyone a new outfit sewn if it wasn’t that it’s also the middle of canning season. We had two bushels of peaches to work away on Tuesday and kept the best ones back for fresh eating. It’s good to have healthy snacks on hand for the children. I am glad most of our children like fresh peaches. I told the children once they add sugar to them, they aren’t healthy anymore.

Our plans, Lord willing, are to start out for Hicksville on Sunday morning. We will attend the baptismal church services for Joe’s cousin Stephen. From

Amos’s.

I sewed myself a new dress suit and Joe a new shirt. I cut out Verena and Loretta each a new dress, but still need to sew one. It makes it easy as they have the same pattern. I need to make Verena’s shorter than Loretta’s. At age 13, Loreetta is a few inches taller than Verena.

My goal was to get new shirts

there we will head towards the Berne, Indiana area and stay out there until Monday. On Monday, we will attend the family gathering at brother Amos and Nancy’s house. Hopefully we won’t be home too late as the children will have school the next day.

Monday is also son Kevin’s eighth birthday. He is excited about his upcoming birthday.

How can our youngest be turning eight and be in second grade already? Time does not stand still. How nice it would be to still get excited about birthdays! We shouldn’t complain, though, if we have good health.

My thoughts and prayers are with my friend Barb as she battles that dreadful disease, cancer. May God heal her and bless her with good health in the future. Barb’s visits are always a highlight as she brings

berries. They’re still thick on the bushes at summer’s end when we take our annual vacation at my parents’ farm. I had a feeling that blueberries would show up very well in a dessert pot sticker.

Their deliciousness aside, blueberries are a wonderfully healthy fruit — high in fiber, vitamin C and antioxidants — and this is their season, whether you buy them cultivated or wild.

Even frozen berries would work well here. Just defrost them in a colander — taking care to capture the juice that

The Associated Press

I have always been a huge fan of the Chinese dumplings known as pot stickers.

They’re wonton wrappers filled with pork or shrimp, crisped up in a pan, steamed, re-crisped, then served with a dipping sauce. Yum! Thinking about pot stickers recently, it occurred to me that if you swapped out the savory for something sweet, you’d have a dandy little dessert on your hands.

And this time of year, when I think sweet, I think blue-

leaks out of them as they come to room temp (you’ll add the juice to the sauce) — then pat the berries dry before you encase them in the wrappers.

Given how wildly blueberries can vary in their acidity and sweetness, be sure to taste a berry or two before you make this recipe. You’ll want to increase the lemon juice if the berry is relatively flat, and increase the sugar if the berry is exceptionally tart. And by the way, even though I’m partial to blueberries, this recipe would work with almost any fruit.

Wonton wrappers are one of my favorite cheating ingredients. They are made out of the same ingredients as Italian pasta and are available in the dairy, Asian or frozen food sections of many supermarkets. I even use them to make giant ravioli or individual lasagna stacks.

They must be wrapped tightly, however, and not left out uncovered for very long when you’re working with them. Otherwise, they’ll dry out. They happen to freeze very well, wrapped in plastic, then foil. I try to keep a supply in the freezer at all

times.

It’s very easy to make this recipe. But you have to cook the pot stickers soon after you make them, and then eat them right away. If you prepare them too far ahead, the bottoms of the wrappers get soggy. Ideally, you should prep the pot stickers just before dinner, then park them on a sheet pan sprinkled with light dusting of cornstarch until you’ve finished the main course.

This keeps them from sticking to the pan.

When you’re ready for them, they cook up in 5 to

8 minutes. And if it turns out that you don’t eat every last one at a single sitting, just put the leftovers in the fridge. My daughter Ruthie swears they’re delicious cold the next day. I find them fairly addictive at any temperature.

BLUEBERRY POT STICKERS Start to finish: 35 minutes Servings: 4 3 cups blueberries, divided 1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt 2 tablespoons orange liqueur (optional) 2 tablespoons sugar, divided 4 teaspoons lemon juice, divided 16 square wonton wrappers 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 cup low-fat vanilla frozen yogurt Powdered sugar and mint sprigs, to garnish In a blender, combine 1 cup of the blueberries, the yogurt, the orange liqueur (if using), 1 tablespoon of the sugar, and 2 teaspoons of the lemon juice. Puree until very smooth, then set aside.

In a medium bowl, toss a heaping cup of the remaining blueberries with the remaining tablespoon of sugar and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice.

Spread out 4 of the wonton wrappers on a work surface, keeping the rest covered with plastic wrap.

Place a small mound of sugared blueberries in the center of each.

To form the dumplings, brush the edges of the wrappers with water. You can use a pastry brush, but it’s also easy to just dunk your finger in a glass of water and rub it along the edges of the wrappers.

Lift 2 opposite sides of each wrapper up and press together above the center of the blueberry mound. Bring the other two opposite sides up and press them together.

This should form a little box with the blueberries inside.

Pinch the wrapper together very tightly at the seams to make sure they are well sealed. Repeat with the remaining blueberries and wrappers.

In a large nonstick skillet over medium, heat the oil until hot. Arrange the wonton packages, seam sides up, in the skillet. Cook until the bottoms are golden, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes. At this point the wonton wrappers should look somewhat translucent and cooked. If they don’t, add a little more water and steam for another 2 minutes.

Remove the lid and continue to cook until the water has completely evaporated and the bottoms of the pot stickers are crisp and golden. Gently loosen the pot stickers and divide between 4 dessert plates.

Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar and top each plate with a small scoop of frozen yogurt. Garnish with the remaining blueberries and mint and serve with the blueberry sauce on the side.

Many vets’ caregivers cut out from federal benefit WASHINGTON (AP) — John Thomas Doody was in a coma and on a ventilator, but his mom refused to follow a doctor’s advice and put the Iraq war veteran in a nursing home.

Chris Ott quit her job, moved the family to Tampa, Fla., so her son, known as J.T., could be near the Veterans Affairs hospital. She spends most of her waking hours trying to meet his many needs.

He was shot while serving with the Marines in Fallujah and suffered an infection and series of strokes during his recovery. She says he’s paralyzed and nearly blind but has made dramatic improvement over the years.

To ease the financial burden, Ott relies on a relatively new federal program that pays her a stipend of about $2,000 per month, trains her on how to care for J.T. and provides at least 30 days of respite care each year.

Once every three months, a VA inspector comes by her house to check on her and J.T. “Now, I can still love him and hug him and kiss him and talk to him and laugh with him. Oh yeah, I still have my son,” she said.

The extra help has eased one family’s financial hardship. Yet there’s a question of fairness.

For every family receiving the caregiver benefit, many more make do without.

For example, Pauline King of Anna, Ill., is not eligible for the stipend even though her husband, Jerry, a Vietnam veteran, needs help with bathing, dressing and going to the bathroom as a result of multiple sclerosis.

When lawmakers created the program in 2010, it limited participation to veterans who had served since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

King said the move to exclude Vietnam veterans shows “they’re still not paying attention” in Congress.

Cost was a factor on Capitol Hill. The caregivers for veterans from earlier wars can get some help from the VA, such as counseling and a lesser amount of respite care, but no monthly stipend.

Ordered by Congress to study the feasibility of expanding the program, the

J.T., who was shot while serving in Fallujah, Iraq., subsequently suffering an infection and a series of strokes that left him in a coma and relying on a ventilator to survive, Tuesday in Riverview, Fla. The Department of Veterans Affairs said Wednesday it supports expanding an enhanced caregivers benefit for grievously wounded veterans but only if Congress comes up with the billions needed to fund it.

Department of Veterans Affairs expressed reservations in a report Wednesday, projecting the cost at between $1.8 billion and $3.8 billion in the first year alone. The VA estimated that an additional 2,000 full-time workers would need to be in place to handle the workload of an expanded program.

“VA believes the expansion of benefits to caregivers of eligible veterans of all eras would make the program more equitable,” the agency said in a statement. “Unfortunately, core health care services to veterans would be negatively impacted without the additional resources necessary to fund the expansion.”

Given tight budget times, with most federal agencies already forced to make cuts and furlough workers, the prospects of adding billions of dollars to the VA budget seems unlikely. The VA thus far has been exempted from the mandatory

cuts, known as sequestration.

Still, in July, the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee passed a bill that would expand the program to veterans from all eras. The bill also increased the types of injuries and illnesses that would qualify a veteran’s caregiver for extra assistance. Any veteran with a “serious-service connected disability” who needed help with basic activities of daily living would qualify.

But concerns about cost will be difficult to overcome.

Currently, about 11,000 caregivers are enrolled in the program. The Congressional Budget Office estimated that an additional 70,000 caregivers would participate by 2016 if the bill, sponsored by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., becomes law.

GOP Rep. Jeff Miller of Florida, chairman of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, said the intent of the Senate

legislation is admirable. But he said the VA has trouble overseeing the current population of beneficiaries.

The Wounded Warrior Project agrees with Miller.

The advocacy group was instrumental in pushing Congress for the enhanced benefit for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans. The group says improvements are needed before the VA expands the programs. For example, it says the VA set what it called unduly strict participation criteria for veterans with mental health conditions. The appeals process is inadequate, the group adds.

The VA needs to resolve “these long-standing concerns as a pre-condition to extending the promise of this law to caregivers of pre-9/11 veterans,” the group said in testimony on Sanders’ bill.

But other groups say it’s simply not right to treat one gen-

Immigrant fights to become California lawyer SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Sergio Garcia’s request that the state Supreme Court grant him a law license was met with resistance and skepticism Wednesday by several justices because he is living in the United States illegally.

A federal law passed by Congress in 1996 bars immigrants in the country illegally from receiving “professional licenses” from government agencies or with the use of public funds.

The case is pitting the Obama administration against California Attorney General Kamala Harris and state bar officials, who insist an applicant’s citizenship status has nothing to do with whether someone like Garcia who graduated from law school, passed the state’s bar examination and has a clean criminal record, can obtain a license.

The Obama administration argues otherwise and is opposed to Garcia receiving his law license.

The state Supreme Court is in charge of licensing lawyers in California and the arguments boiled down to whether public money would be used in its licensing of Garcia. Lawyers for Garcia and the California State bar also argued that Congress meant to exempt attorney licenses from the law because they are issued by courts and not agencies.

A U.S. Department of Justice lawyer argued that Garcia is barred from receiving his law license because the court’s entire budget comes from the public treasury.

“A law license is a professional license,” assistant U.S. Attorney Daniel Tenney said.

“Congress meant to prohibit all professional licenses.”

Justice Goodwin Liu also made that argument during

eration of veterans differently from others.

“It’s a matter of fairness. It’s a matter of principal,” said Adrian Atizado, assistant legislative director for Disabled American Veterans. “We leave no one behind in the military.

That is no one, no matter when they served or what branch of service.”

Organizations such as Vietnam Veterans of America and Disabled American Veterans were instrumental in securing the study released Wednesday.

Jerry King is one pre-Sept.

11 veteran who could use the extra help.

He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1978. The VA determined that the disease, which results in the loss of muscle control and balance, was service-connected.

“The care is a lot. When you’re taking care of a home, when you’re taking care of your family, that’s your day. You do not sit down and watch TV. You do not sit down and read a magazine,” his wife said.

The Kings rely on his disability payments from the VA and Social Security to make ends meet. She said she pays a local couple $10,000 a year to help with such things as moving her husband from his bed to his wheelchair and with the ironing of his clothes. She said there’s not much money left over after that and that a monthly stipend would “be a big step for us.”

“As the years advance and as these things are in their systems, they are going to start showing their head, and the ones who can’t run away from it are the caregivers, the loved ones. The government doesn’t see what these loved ones are going through,” Pauline King said.

But Ott has concerns about what an expansion of the program would mean for her son.

“I believe they should have the same opportunities, but not to the detriment of the ones already in the program,” she said.

questioning of the lawyers, saying it was “commonsensical” that Congress meant to include lawyer licenses in the law.

Liu, appointed by Gov. Jerry Brown, was joined by Chief Justice Tani CantilSakauye and at least two other members of the sevenjudge court who expressed significant misgivings about awarding Garcia a law license.

Garcia arrived in the U.S. illegally 20 years ago to pick almonds in the field with his father.

Working the fields and at a grocery store, he attended community college, studying to become a paralegal, and then law school. Garcia passed the California bar on the first try, a boast that Brown, former Gov. Peter Wilson and nearly 50 percent of all first-time test takers can’t make.

The dispute is the latest high-profile immigration clash between state and federal laws. Usually, it’s the Obama administration opposing state laws in Arizona and elsewhere thought to be antiimmigrant.

The Obama position surprised some, since it had recently adopted a program that shields people who were brought to the U.S. as children, graduated high school and have kept a clean criminal record from deportation and allows them to legally work in the country.

At 36, Garcia is too old to qualify for the Obama program. But he and the immigration groups supporting Garcia argue that he his is exactly the type of candidate the Obama administration had in mind when it adopted its program.

The administration’s opposition stunned Garcia, who self-financed his education at Cal Northern School of Law

in Chico while working at a grocery store and publishing a self-help book in 2006.

“I was very upset by” the administration’s position, he said. “I worked hard and have never been a burden to the state.”

But legal scholars and others say Garcia faces a number of obstacles even if he wins his law license.

Garcia will have to work for himself because no law firm or other employers could legally hire him. And he may be automatically disqualified from representing certain clients and taking on some types of cases because of his citizenship status.

“Garcia is not qualified to practice law because he continually violates federal law by his presence in the United States,” former State Bar prosecutor Larry DeSha told

the state Supreme Court in one of the few “friend of the court” briefs filed opposing Garcia’s licensing.

A similar case is brewing in Florida. That state’s Supreme Court has so far refused to certify a person living illegally in the U.S. as a lawyer, but has not issued a final ruling.

The California Supreme Court has 90 days to rule after Wednesday’s arguments.

Garcia and his supporters argue that he is deserving of his law license on legal — and moral — grounds.

State Bar officials and California’s attorney general argue citizenship status is not a requirement to receive a California law license. Garcia said he’s deserving to practice law in the state for those legal reasons, plus the hard work and dedication he put into passing the bar examination.

Plans for new Indian state spark demands for more NEW DELHI (AP) — India, a nation of 1.2 billion people, has 28 states. Some would rank among the world’s most populous countries.

So when India’s ruling coalition endorsed a 29th state last month, millions of people who have felt ignored and marginalized living far from their state capitals had the same reaction: Why not us?

In West Bengal state, for example, tens of thousands of indigenous Gorkhas demanding their own state — Gorkhaland — have barricaded streets in Darjeeling, the town best known for its prized tea gardens. Strikes have shut down businesses.

Police arrested dozens of activists and clamped a curfew in the worst-hit districts last week.

Demands for more than two dozen new states have burst into mutinous life, and the strikes and protests could redraw India’s political map.

There are no immediate signs of widespread instability, but the localized rumblings could deflect government attention from its most pressing task: improving the struggling Indian economy.

It’s unclear whether the ruling coalition will accept more states. Even the proposal it endorsed, for carving the state of Telangana out of Andhra Pradesh state, is a long way from implementation.

India has always been a political patchwork of astonishingly diverse humanity. Since independence from Britain in 1947, the sprawling

country of different religions, distinct cultures and hundreds of languages has been bound together into a cohesive if chaotic democracy.

The Indian system gives broad power to states, which were drawn broadly along linguistic lines, most of them by a state reorganization commission in the mid-1950s.

But many states are so large they have become difficult to govern, leaving politically marginalized regions out of India’s economic boom.

Some larger states have already been split apart, most recently with the creation of three new states in 2000. If Telangana clears numerous legislative hurdles, it will become the country’s 29th state.

Telangana would be composed of the mostly poor, inland districts of Andhra

Pradesh state. While its people are ethnically the same as most in Andhra Pradesh, they have long felt ignored by a state government that appeared to divert most resources to the more prosperous southern and coastal districts. For years, the region has been churned by violent protests and hunger strikes.

People in Telangana celebrated when New Delhi backed the creation of the new state, but the decision also triggered counterprotests from supporters of a united Andhra Pradesh. A key point of contention is that the proposed Telangana would include Hyderabad, a wealthy IT and industrial hub.

In New Delhi, angry lawmakers on both sides of the Telangana debate repeatedly disrupted the lower house

of parliament this week, and nine parliamentarians were suspended.

The decision on a new state faces several hurdles.

The home ministry must decide how to divide Andhra Pradesh’s resources, waterways and employees. The federal Cabinet, India’s president, the state assembly and parliament would have to approve the plan. Parsa V. Rao, a political analyst in New Delhi, said the process will take several months at least.

The abrupt decision on Telangana by the Congress party, the most powerful member of the ruling coalition, was made with next year’s general elections in mind, but it has given new life to other longstanding demands for new states based on ethnic or linguistic lines.

Putin warns West on Syria action NOVO-OGARYOVO, Russia (AP) — President Vladimir Putin warned the West against taking one-sided action in Syria but also said Russia “doesn’t exclude” supporting a U.N. resolution on punitive military strikes if it is proved that Damascus used poison gas on its own people.

In a wide-ranging interview with The Associated Press and Russia’s state Channel 1 television, Putin said Moscow has provided some components of the S-300 air defense missile system to Syria but has frozen further shipments. He suggested that Russia may sell the potent missile systems elsewhere if Western nations attack Syria without U.N. Security Council backing.

The interview late Tuesday night at Putin’s country residence outside the Russian capital was the only one he granted prior to the summit of G-20 nations in St. Petersburg, which opens Thursday. The summit was supposed to concentrate on the global economy but now looks likely to be dominated by the international crisis over allegations that the Syrian government used chemical weapons in the country’s civil war.

Putin said he felt sorry that President Barack Obama canceled a one-on-one meeting in Moscow that was supposed to have happened before the summit. But he expressed hope that the two would have serious discussions about Syria and other issues in St. Petersburg.

“We work, we argue about some issues. We are human. Sometimes one of us gets vexed.

But I would like to repeat once again that global mutual interests form a good basis for finding a joint solution to our problems.”

The Russian leader, a year into his third term as president, appeared to go out of his way to be conciliatory amid a growing chill in U.S.Russian relations. The countries have sparred over Syria, the Edward Snowden affair, Russia’s treatment of its opposition and the diminishing scope in Russia for civil society groups that receive funding from the West. And Putin denied that Russia has anti-gay policies, despite a law banning gay propaganda that has caused concern about the country’s role as host of the Winter Olympics in February.

Obama, speaking Wednesday during a trip

to Sweden that replaced his Moscow plans, said relations with Russia have “hit a wall,” but also expressed confidence that the two can work together on some issues.

“I have not written off the idea that the United States and Russia are going to continue to have common interests, even as we have some very profound differences on some other issues,” he said, noting that those differences include Syria.

Putin said it was “ludicrous” that the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad — a staunch ally of Russia — would use chemical weapons at a time when it was holding sway against the rebels.

“From our viewpoint, it seems absolutely absurd that the armed forces — the regular armed forces, which are on the offensive today and in some areas have encircled the so-called rebels and are finishing them off — that in these conditions they would start using forbidden chemical weapons while realizing quite well that it could serve as a pretext for applying sanctions against them, including the use of force,” he said.

The Obama administration says 1,429 people died in the Aug. 21 attack in a Damascus suburb. Casualty estimates by other groups are far lower, and Assad’s government blames the episode on rebels trying to overthrow him.

A U.N. inspection team is awaiting lab results on tissue and soil samples it collected while in Syria before completing a report.

Obama expressed frustration at Russia’s position, saying: “It has been very difficult to get Russia, working through the Security Council, to acknowledge some of the terrible behavior of the Assad regime.”

Putin, however, said the U.S. has failed to make its case through the proper channels.

“If there is evidence that chemical weapons have been used, and used specifically by the regular army, this evidence should be submitted to the U.N. Security Council,” said Putin, a former officer in the Soviet KGB. “And it ought to be convincing.

It shouldn’t be based on some rumors and information obtained by intelligence agencies through some kind of eavesdropping, some conversations and things like that.”

Dielman put team first during hall of fame career

By David Fong

Executive Editor dfong@civitasmedia.com

When asked to pick a favorite moment from his high school football career, Kris Dielman had hundreds to choose from.

He could have picked any one of his individual moments of glory — the helmetcracking hits, the pancake blocks or the touchdown catches.

True to form, however, Dielman didn’t go that route.

“My favorite memory is probably just win-

ning games,” Dielman said. “More than anything, that’s what I’ll remember. In high school, I just thought you were supposed to win football games — it seemed like we always won football games. Lo and behold, then I go to Indiana and we never won football games.

Heck, we only lost four games the entire time I was at Troy.

“Those were some of the most fun and special moments of my life — being in the lockerroom after a game with the music blaring after

John Elway has been down this lonely road before, trudging through the tunnel in deafening silence after a stunning loss at home as the AFC’s prohibitive Super Bowl favorite following a 13-3 regular season.

It happened to Elway the quarterback after the 1996 season when Denver lost to Jacksonville 30-27.

It occurred again for Elway the executive in January when the Broncos were beaten 38-35 by Baltimore in the divisional round.

Getting back to work Area teams prepare for Week 2

By JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com

too many guys going both ways — especially when the other team doesn’t have guys going both ways.

Against CJ, they didn’t have many guys going both ways and by the end of the game, our guys who were going both ways were just physically beat. They were still playing their hearts out, they were just physically beat up.

“That’s just the way it is.

We’re going to go out and fight and try to play a little better on defense.”

In the loss to the Eagles, Troy was able to move the ball — the Trojans had two running backs run for more than 100 yards and put up more than 400 yards in offense — but couldn’t stop the Eagles, who also put up more than 400 yards in offense in the 34-20 win. In addition to making personnel chang-

The rust is off for some — and for a few, it was never there to begin with.

But with one week of football in the books, the area’s teams are all prepared to show what they really can bring to the table.

• Greenville (0-1) at Tipp (1-0) Tippecanoe likely could have been sleepwalking in Week 1 and still came away with the win.

Instead, the veteran Red Devils — the seniors in particular — made short work of visiting Graham in a 68-0 rout.

The challenge they’ll face this week against 0-1 Greenville? Keeping that same level of intensity against an opponent they beat by more than 50 points a season ago.

Still, that shouldn’t be a problem as these Devils know what needs to be done on a weekly basis. Senior running back Jacob Hall carried the ball 19 times for 184 yards and three touchdowns, fellow senior Cameron Johnson added 51 yards and two more scores on the ground and senior quarterback Ben Hughes was highly efficient throwing the ball, going 5 for 8 and tossing two touchdown passes.

They’ve been a triple threat offensively for the past three seasons — all playoff seasons – and they’re looking to do big things in their final year.

But they also know that the only way that gets accomplished is on a week-toweek basis, and they won’t be playing down to anyone else’s level.

• M-U (0-1) at Oakwood (1-0) First-year Milton-Union coach Mark Lane knows it will take time for his young Bulldogs.

But after an 18-14 loss at Miami East in Week 1 in which the Vikings scored the go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter, he knows that they’ve got what it takes once they learn how to get over the hump.

“Our guys are figuring out what it takes to win a ballgame still,” Lane said. “We’ve got a lot of young guys that saw their first varsity action last Friday. We made some mental mistakes. But they saw what it takes to put together a full 48 minutes of football.”

Lineman Jared Bair (75) is one of potentially eight sophomores who will be starting for the Troy football team Friday against Springfield Shawnee.

Youth movement Troy could start as many as eight sophomores this week

By David Fong

Executive Editor dfong@civitasmedia.com

TROY — Youth will be served this Friday when the Troy football team plays host to Springfield Shawnee at Troy Memorial Stadium.

Due to a number of injuries and Troy coach Scot Brewer’s desire not to have any of his players going both ways on offense and defense, as many as eight sophomores could find their way into the starting line-up this week as the banged-up Trojans take on the Braves.

“We are trying to patch the wounds this week,” Brewer said. “We don’t know how many guys we will have available.”

Troy lost three players to injury in a Week 1 loss to Chaminade Julienne — which translates into

six starting positions, given the number of players the Trojans had going both ways. Starting fullback and inside linebacker Anthony Shoop suffered a fracture in his leg will not play Friday. Starting right tackle and nosetackle Andrew Kostecka suffered a sprained ankle last week and will be questionable for Friday’s game. Starting defensive lineman Eric Whitten suffered a leg injury and also will be questionable for Friday’s game.

All of those injuries will lead to shuffling for the Trojans and that — coupled with Brewer’s hopes not to have any players on the field the entire game — likely will lead to a host of sophomores starting against Shawnee.

“There’s a ripple effect when we lose one guy,” Brewer said. “And we are going to try not to have

PIQUA — Three girls shooting season bests usually leads to a pretty good day.

The Troy Trojans enjoyed their best day of the season Wednesday.

Caroline Elsass-Smith and Caitlin Dowling both posted scores below 40 Wednesday at Echo Hills, leading the Trojans to a 167-215 victory over Covington in non-league play.

Elsass-Smith shot a 37 and Dowling shot a 39 — season bests for both.

“Caroline had her ‘A’-game, and Caitlin played and putted really well,” Troy girls golf coach Tom Mercer said. “They both had their best rounds of the year, and it led to us having our best nine-hole score of the year as a team. To get two girls into the 30s is great.

“They both have the game that, if they

concentrate, they could be in the upper30s to low-40s every time out.”

LeeAnn Black also added her best round of the season, a 45, and Morgan McKinney rounded out the scoring with a 46. Ali Helman added a 51 and Victoria Ries shot a 53.

“LeeAnn, that was the second match in a row we used her score, and I’m pretty sure that’s her best score of the year,” Mercer said. “She was our fourth score last time out, and here she is our third score today. This was a good evening for us.”

Allison Ingle led Covington with a 51, Addison Metz and Kelsey McReynolds each shot 54, Morgan McReynolds shot 56 and Sadie Canan shot 66.

Troy (5-1) returns to action Monday on the road at Beavercreek.

• Boys

Eaton 150, Milton-Union 161 WEST MILTON — It took a great round to end Milton-Union’s unbeaten run.

Eaton had three golfers below 40 — and two of them tied for medalist with 35s — to hand the Bulldogs their first loss of the season in a 150-161 victory in Southwestern Buckeye League Buckeye Division play Wednesday at Homestead Golf Course.

Joey Smedley also shot a 35 to tie for medalist honors for the Bulldogs. Mitch Gooslin shot 41, Josh Martin added a 42, Zach Glodrey shot 43, Jack Blevins shot 49 and Jake Stefanko shot 52.

Milton-Union (6-1) travels to Madison Tuesday.

Now Milton-Union travels to Oakwood to face an old rival, and they will see something completely different than the Vikings showed.

“Oakwood has a lot of good athletes, and they run a wide-open offense,” Lane said.

“That will present a new kind of challenge for us.”

Still, he also knows that once win No. 1 is out of the way, the rest will come.

“Oh absolutely,” he said of wanting to get his first win as the Bulldogs’ coach out of the way as quick as possible. “The kids know they have to keep persevering and working hard. Once we take care of our own business, the rest will take care of itself.”

• Miami East (1-0) at National Trail After beating MiltonUnion for the first time in more than a decade, the Vikings are riding high.

Miami East coach Max Current likes that — but he also wants his team to keep a level head, too.

“Everyone is upbeat and rearing to go getting ready for the next game,” Current said.

“But as a coach, I’ve got to make sure we don’t have a letdown.”

And with pass-happy National Trail up next to start Cross County Conference play, anything can happen.

“They’re a good passing team, and anytime you have that, it gets kind of scary,” Current said. “Having five receivers running wild down the field. It’s going to be a good test for us.”

The Vikings also know the best way to avoid letting that passing game be a wild card — don’t

let the Blazers have the ball.

“Hopefully we can get a good pass rush on them, and we’d like to keep the ball out of their hands,” Current said. “We want to go out and do what we like to do and limit their opportunities on offense. We want to keep the ball away from them.”

• Covington (1-0) at Arcanum (1-0) Covington made quite a statement in Week 1 by beating St. Henry in its only non-league game of the year.

With Cross County Conference play starting up, the Buccaneers need to keep that level of focus no matter who they are playing.

Friday, the Buccs will travel to Arcanum, a team they manhandled last year — along with the rest of the CCC. In Week 1 against St. Henry, A.J. Ouellette rushed for two touchdowns and Jared Williams ran for one and caught another in a 35-21 win. Even with Arcanum coming off of a victory in its non-league game, don’t expect this one to be within 30 points.

• TC (1-0) at MVCA Troy Christian’s return to football was a triumphant one.

But the celebration could only last one extra night — they still had a week’s worth of practice to get in before Saturday night’s game at Miami Valley Christian Academy.

Sophomore Luke Dillahunt had a breakout game, rushing for 150 yards and two touchdowns and adding 75 yards receiving, also.

But the Eagles still need

to show the ability to play a full 48 minutes after a slow start — which is just what they’ll try to put on display this weekend.

• Bethel (0-1) at Miss. Valley (0-1) The Bethel Bees left Week 1’s opener against Northridge disappointed after they struggled to move the ball on offense.

Friday night, they should get a chance to work out those kinks against Mississinawa Valley, which went 0-10 a season ago. But Bethel, which finished the season strong a year

ago, knows that it can’t depend on the momentum it built then now.

It’s a new year, and the Bees need new momentum.

• TV South (1-0) at Bradford (0-1) Bradford, Bethel and Mississinawa Valley were the only Cross County Conference teams to lose their Week 1 games.

Now the Railroaders will look to return to form against Twin Valley South after a narrow 24-20 defeat a week ago.

yards in that game and threw two touchdown passes — but he also threw two interceptions.

If Bradford can limit its mistakes Friday, it should come away with its first win.

• Kings (0-1) at Piqua (1-0) A combined 235 penalty yards. A total of 28 times that the little yellow flags flew.

Through it all, Piqua was able to outscore Toledo Rogers 27-0 in the second half to pick up a Week 1 victory on the road.

Now, the Indians return home to face 0-1

Kings, and after all the adversity they faced a week ago, the only danger they’re in is from exhaustion.

• Minster (0-1) at Lehman (0-1) Lehman didn’t get the chance to show much in Week 1 in a 40-14 loss to Anna.

This week, the Cavaliers host Minster, which narrowly lost to always-tough Fort Loramie 21-18 last week. Friday night’s game could be a tough matchup for Lehman.

Broncos, Ravens meet again 8 months later DENVER (AP) — John Elway has been down this lonely road before, trudging through the tunnel in deafening silence after a stunning loss at home as the AFC’s prohibitive Super Bowl favorite following a 13-3 regular season.

It happened to Elway the quarterback after the 1996 season when Denver lost to Jacksonville 30-27.

It occurred again for Elway the executive in January when the Broncos were beaten 38-35 by Baltimore in the divisional round.

Elway rebounded the first time to win back-toback Super Bowls. He said the pain of that pratfall against the Jaguars was the impetus to make them into champions.

“It was a great incentive for us to come back and have an even better year the following year,” Elway said.

After engineering a $125 million offseason spending spree and acquiring wide receiver Wes Welker and massive right guard Louis Vasquez — to help new center

Youth

Manny Ramirez fend off the likes of Ravens nose tackle Haloti Ngata — Elway is aiming for history to repeat itself after this latest heartbreak.

Some things to watch for as the Broncos kick off the season Thursday night against the champion Ravens: ROAD RAVENS: Joe Flacco looms larger than life in Denver, and not just because he engineered the stunning playoff upset with his 70-yard touchdown throw to Jacoby Jones that tied it at 35 with 31 seconds left in regulation.

The NFL’s marketing machine put up gigantic banners of Flacco alongside Peyton Manning on the Broncos’ stadium to promote the league’s first game of the 2013 season.

Fans are furious, Manning is miffed and Flacco is flummoxed.

Still, Flacco reasoned, “being hated is not a bad thing.”

This flag flap could have been avoided had baseball’s Orioles moved their game Thursday night to

accommodate the champs for a customary home kickoff.

“I’m not too worried about it,” Flacco said. “It’s not like they’re taking a home game away from us.

They’re just making us

defense that outscored an overmatched Springfield Catholic Central team 82-7 and outgained the Irish 287 to minus-63 yards.

Against SCC, tailback Jalen Nelson rushed for 108 yards and three touchdowns, while quarterback Saalih Muhammad completed 5 of 6 passes for 110 yards and a touchdown.

“They are a wellcoached team,” Brewer said of Shawnee.

“They’ve got a bunch of playmakers. Nelson is a big, strong running back. They new kid at quarterback is kind of

a do-over of last week.

He’s a lot like (CJ quarterback Jacob Harrison, who completed 17 of 21 passes for more than 200 yards against the Trojans) — he can run around and make plays and he can throw the ball. It’s going to be a tough test for our defense.

“We’ve got to protect the ball on offense and take care of our assignments on defense.”

on defense, Brewer said his team has taken a “back to basics” approach this week in practice.

“We’ve got to play our gaps; we’ve got to line up right,” Brewer said. “They are all fixable mistakes. We’ve just got to get back to basics. That’s my fault. I should have been spending more time down there. I haven’t spent as much time working with the defense as I should.”

Troy ’s defense will again be tested this week against a Springfield Shawnee

play on the road maybe earlier than we wanted to.”

ELVIS RETURNS: “Doom & Gloom” is what Elvis Dumervil and Von Miller called themselves in Denver, where the Pro

Bowl pass rushers combined for 29½ of the Broncos’ league-leading 52 sacks in 2012.

Dumervil signed with the Ravens in free agency after his infamous fax foulup in Denver led to his

Bellbrook blanks Tippecanoe Staff Reports

TIPP CITY — Bellbrook has proven to be one of the tougher teams in the Dayton area this season.

Wednesday, despite a couple of close battles, Tippecanoe found out just how tough in a 5-0 non-league loss in Tipp City.

At first singles, Tippecanoe’s Hailey Winblad lost to Rachel Heinz 6-0, 6-0. At second singles, Taylor Sutton went three sets but fell 6-1, 3-6, 6-3 to Megan Yates. At third singles, Miu Tanaka lost to Caroline Wong 6-2, 6-2.

At first doubles, Katie Gross and Kennedy Reeder lost to Kellie Rasp and Megan Bias 6-4, 6-4. At second doubles, Nefeli Supinger and Ali Merrick lost to Hannah Songer and Ali Contestable 6-2, 7-5.

Tippecanoe (4-5) travels to Urbana today.

release by the Broncos.

He won’t see Miller on Thursday night because Denver’s All-Pro linebacker is serving a six-game drug suspension.

“He’s like a younger brother,” Dumervil said.

Hamilton’s running, Chapman’s fastball give Reds speed Editor’s note: The Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals were tied 3-3 in the 11th inning at time of press Wednesday night.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Billy Hamilton lowered his shoulders and got into high gear, taking off for second base on Seth Maness’ pitch.

Whoosh! He was there. And moments later, he was dashing home with the only run of the game, one that would end with a little more radarblurring speed.

Closer Aroldis Chapman jogged out of the Cincinnati Reds’ bullpen, reached the mound at leisurely pace, and finished off the St. Louis Cardinals with a bevy of 103 mph fastballs that left the Cardinals overmatched.

Whoosh! All three went down swinging.

Cincinnati’s 1-0 victory on Tuesday night came down to raw speed, and the Reds now have more of it than anyone else in the NL Central. Hamilton can outrun anyone; Chapman can throw it past anyone.

Call it speed squared. And it might just be enough to help them make that final dash toward another NL Central title.

“An outstanding game,” manager Dusty Baker said. “There was a playoff-type atmosphere.

I hope we get used to that.”

Should be like that the rest of September, especially now that the Reds can play the game so fast that no one can afford to blink.

“Watching Billy run — I can watch that every day,” Reds third baseman Todd Frazier said.

Folks will get to see a lot of baseball’s fastest runner this month.

The Reds called up the 22-year-old Hamilton on Monday to give themselves a game changer on the bases. He stole 155 bases in the minors last season, setting a professional record, and was deemed ready to show what he can do on the bases after his first season at Triple-A. On Tuesday night, he got his chance. After Ryan Ludwick singled to open the seventh inning in a scoreless game, Baker sent him in to run. The crowd of 20,219 fans gave a loud ovation, sounding more like a full house at Great American Ball Park than one half-full.

There was a buzz in the air.

“We knew that this guy’s electric,” Frazier said.

Such a reaction — in such a pressure situation — got Hamilton caught up in the moment.

“I haven’t been that nervous in a long time,” he said.

After Maness threw to first three times, trying to keep Hamilton close, the 160-pound outfielder took off and beat Yadier Molina’s off-target throw to second base. The catcher is one of the best at nailing runners, but had to rush and watched his throw sail up and

away.

“That’s my job — steal in big situations,” Hamilton said. “I feel this was a real big situation, a pennant race.”

Fans in the outfield formed a sign that said, “Run Billy Run.” The Reds revved up a version of the “Speed Racer” theme song over the public address system, the one with the chorus: “Go Speed Racer, Go Speed Racer, Go Speed Racer, Go!” It was hard to hear with the fans going crazy.

Hamilton scored easily when Frazier doubled to left, getting mobbed when he reached the dugout.

“Yeah, it was like we won the

World Series,” Hamilton said.

The fans and the dugout were still buzzing when Chapman came out of the bullpen to face the heart of St. Louis order — Carlos Beltran, Matt Holliday and Allen Craig. Baker wasn’t sure what he’d get out of the hard-throwing lefty, who hadn’t pitched since Aug. 24 because of the lack of save chances.

Chapman’s fastball was clocked at a career-high 106 mph on the Great American Ball Park video board in 2011.

He’s scaled back on the speed to gain control as a closer the last two seasons. When he hasn’t pitched for a few days, his velocity tends to go up and

his control goes away.

What would they see this time?

The first pitch to Beltran was a 102 mph fastball for a called strike. Then, three straight sliders registering 90 mph to finish him off.

No messing around with Holliday. All fastballs: 100, 100, 103, 103, 103 mph to get him swinging.

Same with Craig, who saw fastballs at 102 and 103 before getting some sliders than left him flailing, too.

“It looked like the rest didn’t hurt Chapman at all,” Baker said. “He was throwing harder than he was before.”

The Reds took their second straight in their final series against the Cardinals.

Pittsburgh leads the division, followed by St. Louis 2 games out and the Reds 3½. All three teams are in good position to make the playoffs, one of them as the division champion and the other two as wild cards.

The Reds finish the season with six of their last nine games against Pittsburgh, including the last three at Great American Ball Park.

With their schedule and their September speed, the Reds have a chance to make a run at another title.

“Maybe the worm has turned in our direction,” Baker said.

“We’re trying to chase them with time running out.”

That Dielman would select a team moment rather than an individual moment during his career at Troy probably comes as no surprise to anyone who watched him play.

ers in school history, Dielman made a habit of putting the team first when he played at Troy, Indiana University and for the NFL’s San Diego Chargers.

For all he accomplished during his entire football career — which is one of the mostdecorated in Troy High School history — Dielman Dielman has been selected as one of 10 inductees into the inaugural class of the Trojan Athletics Hall

of Fame.

“It’s exciting,” Dielman said of the hall of fame honor. “There have been some pretty good people who have gone through Troy — it’s an honor to be included with some of the best.”

Depending on the criteria, Dielman may be the best.

He started his football career at Troy at tight end. In Troy’s run-heavy offense, he didn’t get a chance to

season.

Following high school, Dielman went to Indiana, where he played tight end his first three seasons, earning All-Big Ten honors as a junior. His senior season, the team had a need at defensive tackle, so Dielman played primarily at defensive end and continued to moonlight at tight end, becoming one of the only twoway players in Division I college football. He again earned All-Big Ten honors that season.

Following his college career, Dielman went undrafted, but signed

as a free agent with the Chargers. He was eventually moved to offensive guard, a position he had never played in his career.

Despite his inexperience, Dielman excelled, quickly earning a starting role. In his NFL career, Dielman would earn five trips to the Pro Bowl and be selected to the Chargers’ 50th Anniversary Team.

“It all started in little Troy, Ohio,” Dielman said. “Troy will always be where my roots are. I had some of the best times of my life playing high school football.”

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Toast them with a bottle of Iron City. Wear that 1970s-era Pittsburgh painter’s cap with pride.

Celebrate the end of “The Streak.”

Just don’t expect the Pirates to join in the fun.

There’s an NL Central title to win.

The Pirates ended their 20-year run of losing baseball Tuesday night, reaching the 81-win mark with a 4-3 victory at Miller Park.

“I’ve won 81 games before, and this team is going to win more than 81 games. A lot more,” newly acquired outfielder Marlon Byrd said before Wednesday night’s game at Milwaukee.

“It’s about changing the culture, and they’ve done that the past two years,” he said. “This was inevitable that this team was going to get to this point.”

Easy for him to say.

He recently joined the club, obtained from the Mets in a deal to bolster the lineup for the playoff push.

Second baseman Neil Walker, on the other hand, is a little more passionate. He grew up in Pittsburgh and still lives in the Steel City.

Walker was bombarded with messages on his Twitter account Tuesday night.

“To be part of this group that has righted the ship, per se, in the win column is pretty significant. I don’t think anybody is going to

admit that too much in here just because baseball players are so superstitious,” Walker said.

“But the fact that I’ve lived and breathed Pirates baseball since I can remember, being a baseball fan since I was 5 or 6 years old, it holds a little more significance to me.”

Their latest win gave the Pirates a two-game division lead over St. Louis, and Cincinnati is 3½ back. Pittsburgh is aiming to finish first and avoid a best-of-one matchup between wild cards.

No matter what, at least the Pirates don’t have to answer any more questions about the drought.

In western Pennsylvania, “The Streak” made one segment of fans miserable.

Others viewed the franchise like lovable losers, the “Bad News Bears” of sorts of the majors.

The Pirates went 20 years, 11 months and 26 days since they last had 81 wins in a season.

More perspective on the two-decade run of misery since 1992: —The Pirates were 1,374-1,796 during the streak for a .437 winning percentage.

—The Penguins and Steelers had seven losing seasons combined during that period.

—The franchise went through three ownership groups and seven managers, including current skipper Clint Hurdle.

Hurdle said he was humbled by all the messages that he had received.

“And they’re not from my buddies. They’re actually from people that we’ve come to know in the North Hills (suburbs) and the city of Pittsburgh that have reached out,” he said.

“The emails and texts are quite meaningful.”

After the win, Hurdle said he was especially happy for the family of Roberto Clemente, the late Hall of Famer who wore No. 21.

“They told me earlier in the season that we can’t have 21 losing seasons, that we’ve got to find a way to not have Roberto’s number tied to that,” Hurdle said. “I told them we’d find a way to take care of that.

It’s been taken care of.”

The Pirates seemed loose before Wednesday’s game, but there were no cases of champagne waiting on ice. No trophy in another room waiting to be presented in a pregame ceremony.

Outfielder Travis Snider, whose pinch-hit homer in the ninth led to Tuesday’s win, talked fantasy football. Others watched the ever-present baseball highlights on the big-screen TVs. Outfielder Andrew McCutchen, the Pirates’ MVP candidate, put it best. He posted a simple message on his Twitter account shortly after the Pirates got win No. 81.

“Keep going …”

His senior year — with the Trojans sitting on an 0-2 record after going 20-0 the previous two regular seasons — Dielman started playing middle linebacker in addition to tight end.

His impact was immediately felt, as the Trojans went 8-0 to finish the season with him solidifying the defense. Dielman earned second team AllOhio honors for his play at middle linebacker that
