Troy City Schools to receive one-time bonus pay TROY — In the Wednesday’s edition of the Troy Daily News, it was wrongly stated that the Troy City Schools teachers and staff were getting a 1 percent salary raise. The Troy City Schools board of education approved a one-time bonus payment of 1 percent based on the staff member’s base pay. According to the Troy City Schools’ Superintendent Eric Herman, the 1 percent is calculated using each employees base salary. It does not increase their base pay. It is a one- time only payment. Everybody on the Troy City payroll as of September 30 will receive this reward/bonus. The one-time bonus will be paid to each employee on Sept. 30. Also, the figures in TCS treasurer report were appropriations for the 2013-2014 fiscal year, not the total revenue. The Troy Daily News regrets this error.

Nation pauses on 9/11 to pay tribute to victims NEW YORK (AP) — Life in lower Manhattan resembled any ordinary day on Wednesday as workers rushed to their jobs in the muggy heat, but time stood still at the World Trade Center site while families wept for loved ones who perished in the terror attacks 12 years ago. For the families, the memories of that day are still vivid, the pain still acute. Some who read the names of a beloved big brother or a cherished daughter could hardly speak through their tears. “Has it really been 12 years? Or 12 days? Sometimes it feels the same,” said Michael Fox, speaking aloud to his brother, Jeffrey, who perished in the south tower. “Sometimes I reach for the phone so I can call you, and we can talk about our kids like we used to do every day.”
On the memorial plaza overlooking two reflecting pools in the imprint of the twin towers, relatives recited the names of the nearly 3,000 people who died when hijacked jets crashed into the towers, the Pentagon and in a field near Shanksville, Pa. They also recognized the victims of the 1993 trade center bombing. Bells tolled to mark the planes hitting the towers and the moments when the skyscrapers fell. In Washington, President Barack Obama, first lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and wife Jill Biden walked out to the White House’s South Lawn for a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m. — the time the first plane struck the south tower in New York. Another jetliner struck the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. “Our hearts still ache for the futures snatched
away, the lives that might have been,” Obama said. A moment of silence was also held at the U.S. Capitol. In New York, loved ones milled around the memorial site, making rubbings of names, putting flowers by the names of victims and weeping, arm-in-arm. Former Gov. George Pataki, New Jersey Gov.

TROY — This week, students and staff at Troy High School have been giving ‘til it hurts. Literally. “I have a bad back — I’m not sure I can do this,” Troy High School assistant principal Jeff Schultz said, bald pate glistening with sweat and thick arm muscles rippling as he bent over to help lift a heavy filing cabinet into the back of a Goodwill truck Wednesday afternoon. Schultz was donating his prodigious strength — and students have been donating used goods all week — as Troy High School competes against Xenia High School, the school it will meet on the football field Friday night, as a part of the “Goodwill Drive to
Victory” competition. The Goodwill Drive to Victory is in its seventh season. It pits two schools against one another to see which can

White House: Russian prestige on the line in Syria WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House tried Wednesday to pin the success or failure of a diplomatic option to secure Syria’s chemical weapons on Russia rather than the United States as Secretary of State John Kerry headed for Geneva to work on a Russian proposal for international inspectors to seize and destroy the deadly stockpile. On a different diplomatic front aimed at taking control of the stockpile away from the Assad government, the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council met Wednesday at Russia’s U.N. mission to consider goals for a new resolution requiring
Syria’s chemical weapons to be dismantled. They left without commenting, but whether a U.N. resolution should be militarily enforceable was already emerging as a point of contention. Rebels who had hoped U.S.-led strikes against the Syrian government would aid their effort expressed disappointment, if not condemnation of the U.S., over President Barack Obama’s decision to pursue diplomacy in the wake of a chemical weapons attack in the Damascus suburbs last month that the U.S. says killed more than 1,400 people. “We’re on our own,” Mohammad Joud, an

Newton BOE considers energy efficiency upgrades By Melanie Yingst Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia. com PLEASANT HILL — The Newton Board of Education reviewed a possible energy efficiency project through the House Bill 264 loan program during its regular board meeting on Wednesday. Superintendent Pat McBride presented the information for board members to review and possibly consider in the future. The project used a DP & L energy audit recently performed at the school. McBride said despite the district’s new building, the project loan would be used to retrofit the building’s lighting and HVAC system in the 1999 addition which is used for administration offices and the district’s preschool program. McBride said the 1999 addition would change the pneumatic system to a digital control from one location in the building. Light upgrades have already been performed in the 1999 gym. The upgrades use a brighter, yet more energy efficient, lighting system. The House Bill 264 loan would be a 15-year loan for $289,520. The loan would be repaid entirely by energy cost savings from the project which includes electric and gas savings from the upgrades. McBride said the loan interest rate is approximately 2.5 percent at the present time. McBride said the information was solely for the board’s “consideration” and a presentation by Greg Smith from Energy Optimizers would give a presentation in the future to supplement the dis-

GOP stopgap spending plan to be delayed WA S H I N G T O N (AP) — A revolt by tea party conservatives forced House GOP leaders on Wednesday to delay a vote on a temporary spending bill required to prevent a government shutdown next month. GOP leaders pulled the measure from the House schedule after initial vote counts showed them running into opposition from several dozen staunch conservatives who think the leadership is not fighting hard enough to block implementation of President Barack Obama’s health care law. The conservatives are unhappy with a
plan by GOP leaders to advance the measure through the House coupled with a provision to derail implementation of the new health care law but allow the Democratic Senate to send it on to the White House shorn of the “defund ‘Obamacare’” provision so long as there is a vote on it. The plan by top Republicans like Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia is designed to keep government agencies running through Dec. 15. Cantor’s office announced the delay. The GOP leadership-sponsored strategy features an unusual twist: The measure
would pass the House as a single bill but would be decoupled when presented to the Senate, a trick designed to permit the Democratic-led chamber to advance the must-do funding measure to the president as a “clean” bill that’s free of the assault on Obama’s signature health care law. The complicated plan landed with a thud among many tea party conservatives seeking to use the must-pass funding bill to spark a last-ditch battle with Democrats and Obama on the health care law. Health insurance exchanges are slated to begin functioning
on Oct. 1. “We’ve got a large number of folks in our conference who have said they need the vote to happen this way,” Rep. Rob Woodall, R-Ga. “The leadership tried to craft a solution that meets those needs. We may be finding out that we didn’t come as close to meeting those needs as folks would have liked.” “ I ’m not impressed,” said Rep. Louis Gohmert, R-Texas. Republican leaders are worried that if they can’t find a way out of their dilemma they could stumble into the first partial government shut-
down since the 199596 debacle that translated into a big win for then-President Bill Clinton. Essential services like the military, air traffic control and the Border Patrol would remain open in any shutdown, but national parks would close and many civilian federal workers would be sent home. The protests by conservatives have thus far left House leaders short of the votes required to pass the measure and forced the delay into next week. It’s unclear whether it can be revived or whether GOP leaders will have to come up with another plan to avoid a government
shutdown after the 2013 budget year ends Sept. 30. GOP aides requiring anonymity to discuss internal strategy said Republican leaders were making progress in assembling the 217 votes that would pass the measure through the House. Last year’s elections narrowed the Republican margin of control in the House, and GOP leaders can’t afford more than 16 defections, assuming no Democrats vote with them. One key GOP aide said 30 to 40 Republicans were most adamant in opposing the plan and were proving difficult to budge.
n Continued from page 1 tried to overwhelm the attackers and the plane crashed into the field. All aboard died. “In a period of 22 minutes, our loved ones made history,” said Gordon Felt, president of the Families of Flight 93, whose brother, Edward, was a passenger. Outside Washington, hundreds of people gathered for a short, simple ceremony at an Arlington County plaza three miles from the
Pentagon. First responders from the county were among the first on the scene that day. Fire Chief James Schwartz said ceremonies like Wednesday’s — which featured an honor guard and a moment of silence— serve as a reminder of why first responders spend so much time preparing for disaster. “I’ve often said this has been the fastest 12 years of my life,” Schwartz said.
“But if you are a surviving family member, I’d imagine this has been the longest 12 years of your life, because you’re waking up every day with a hole in your heart.” Bloomberg also spoke at a remembrance service for the 84 Port Authority employees killed on Sept. 11 at St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church, in the shadow of where the World Trade Center once stood. “On that terrible day, we
were united in prayer and compassion for all of you who lost loved ones,” the mayor said. “As we woke up this morning, our first thoughts were with you as well.” Dozens of family members and colleagues filled the pews as the Port Authority Police Pipes and Drums played during the posting of colors. Around the world, thousands of volunteers pledged
to do good deeds, honoring an anniversary that was designated a National Day of Service and Remembrance in 2009. By next year’s anniversary, a 9/11 museum is expected to be open beneath the memorial plaza in New York City. While the memorial honors those killed, the museum is intended to present a broader picture, including the experiences of survivors and first respond-
ers. “As things evolve in the future, the focus on the remembrance is going to stay sacrosanct,” memorial President Joe Daniels said.w “The kids today, they know when the next iPhone’s coming out, and they know when the next Justin Bieber concert is, but they don’t know enough about 9/11,” he said. “So let’s change that, please.”
pose and what they are about.” Students have been donating all week. The school also is donating old desks, filing cabinets and audio/visual equipment it no longer uses. Tuesday afternon,
Schultz, assistant principal Randy Smith, athletic director Dave Palmer and athletics custodian Bill Redfearn worked in the blistering heat to help two Goodwill associates load a truck with obsolete school furniture.
Additionally, Schultz said, the public is encouraged to get involved. Anyone wishing to donate can do so by dropping off items at the Goodwill trailer at the high school today from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. or Friday from 8
a.m. to noon. If anyone has items they cannot get to the high school, Schultz said, they should call the high school at 332-6710. “Last year we had a lot of businesses participate,” Schultz said. “Even
scrap metal can be recycled and we get credit for the money. People can donate old computers and Goodwill has a contract to use the old computer parts. Also, people can use their donation as a tax write-off.”
efforts to resolve the standoff but said that bringing Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile under international control “obviously will take some time.” “Russia is now putting its prestige on the line,” he said. Asked whether U.S. prestige also was on the line, Carney said: “The United States leads in these situations. And it’s not always popular and it’s not always comfortable.” On Capitol Hill, action on any resolution authorizing U.S. military intervention in Syria was on hold, even an alternative that would have reflected Russia’s diplomatic offer. Senators instead debated an energy bill.
“The whole terrain has changed,” Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., told reporters after a meeting of Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “We want to make sure we do nothing that’s going to derail what’s going on.” That didn’t stop Republicans from announcing their opposition to Obama’s initial call for military strikes and criticizing the commander in chief. Sen. Deb Fischer, R-Neb., who had attended a Sunday night dinner with Obama and Biden, accused the president of engaging in “pinball diplomacy.” “Unfortunately, what we’ve seen from the com-
mander in chief so far has been indecision, verbal gymnastics and a reluctance to step up and lead,” Fischer said in a statement. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., an outspoken advocate of aggressive U.S. military intervention for months, said he was concerned that the Russian plan could be a “rope-adope” delaying tactic while “that the slaughter goes on.” Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov spoke by phone in advance of their meeting in Geneva on Thursday. “They discussed the outlines of the schedule and their shared objective of having a substantive dis-
cussion about the mechanics of identifying, verifying and ultimately destroying Assad’s chemical weapons stockpile so they can never be used again,” the State Department said in a statement Wednesday evening. Obama said the United States and its allies would work with Russia and China to present a resolution to the U.N. Security Council requiring Syrian President Bashar Assad to give up his chemical weapons and ultimately destroy them. Russia and China, both permanent Security Council members, have vetoed three Westernbacked resolutions aimed at pressuring Assad to end
the conflict. That has left the U.N.’s most powerful body paralyzed as the war escalates and the death toll surpasses 100,000. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon earlier this week called the council’s paralysis embarrassing. “What the secretary-general has been pressing for is the Security Council to come to a united decision,” U.N. associate spokesman Farhan Haq said Wednesday. “It’s crucially important at this late stage of the war that they come together and take some action that can prevent both the problems regarding the use of chemical weapons and the wider problem of solving this conflict.”
success” in terms of value-added measures and the fact that the district can not meet some standards based on its own population. “Value-added is unsustainable,” McBride said. “Obviously we’d like to have all As. We got nine grades and we don’t know what some of them even mean.” McBride said he, along with the Newton Local School principals, were still “delving in to the data to make the best sense of (the report card
information).” “Basically, we are proud of what we’ve done and we are doing a very good job,” McBride said. “Some of these grades don’t make any sense.” The board also heard from Rachelle Miller, the director of the TroyMiami County Public Library, about the upcoming library levy renewal. The library is seeking a .6 mill renewal levy for the library and its branches including the Oakes-Beitman branch in Pleasant Hill . Since the levy is a renewal, no additional taxes will be collected, Miller said. Miller said the renewal levy makes up one-third of all the library’s funding and generates $640,000 a
year. Miller said the state has cut all library budgets around the state by 35 percent. “You can see why its important to us,” Miller said. Miller said Newton Elementary School will be a stop for the library’s new bookmobile in the future. Miller also said the Pleasant Hill branch has had very good attendance during both its summer programs and school year programs for elementary and junior high age children. Miller said the OakesBeitman branch is open 46 hours a week, adding five more hours when the levy was originally passed in 2009. The branch checks out approximately
49,000 items a year, not including e-books. Miller said all teachers have unlimited access to materials with extended check out for their classroom. Miller also said if teachers were needing subject specific books, library staff would be able to pull items for them and have them ready if they were given notice. Miller said interior renovation at the OakesBeitman branch included new shelving and carpet. The library also added one public computer and WiFi access for personal lap top and other devices. Miller said the OakesBeitman library will host a “Levy Rally” at the branch on Oct. 4 from 5:30-7 p.m. The public is invited to attend the informational event, pick up levy support signs and receive more detailed information. McBride said he appreciated the library’s support in the community and at the school. McBride said the library branch acts as “partners with us to encourage our kids to read and read well which helps them in all
areas” in school. Treasurer Nick Hamilton report the district’s revenue is up 1.5 percent and expenditures were down 6.5 percent in his presentation. The board approved the resignations of K-12 physical education teacher and intervention specialist Elizabeth McCreight and assistant band director Nick Wilson. The board hired Sean Turner as the district’s new physical education teacher and intervention specialist and Shane Mathews as the assistant band director. The board approved the Newton band overnight trip to perform at Ohio State University on Oct. 12 and then a trip to Cedar Point the following day. McBride said band director Jason Graham has a live feed camera to broadcast live band performances. “If you can’t make it, you can watch from home,” McBride said. The camera was provided by the Newton Band Boosters.

McBride said he is hesitant about the energy efficiency project, but said, “I see the value in it.” McBride said some factors, including rising energy costs and also if the HB 264 program would be available in the future, sway him to consider the loan.

Council OKs water meter upgrade Passes loud dog ordinance By Amy Maxwell
For Civitas Media tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com
WEST MILTON — West Milton Council focused its attention on the upcoming proposed water meter change out at the council meeting Tuesday. Council authorized Municipal Manager Matt Kline to enter into a water meter contract with E.J. Prescott Inc. of West Carrollton for a new Sunsus meter system. In order to finance the project, council heard the first reading of an ordinance for a loan through Minster Bank. The term of the proposed loan agreement is in the amount of $600,000 with an interest rate of 3 percent for the length of 10 years. West Milton resident Don Edmunds was concerned that more efficient meters may cause his monthly bill to increase, due to the municipality finding that many meters were not reading accurately. He wondered why the new meters were necessary. Kline addressed the issue and pointed out the positive aspect of more efficient meters. “The new meters will be fixed base meters that are constantly being read. This system will enable us to be notified every day if anyone is having a possible leak,” Kline explained. The fixed base meter system uses special antennas to transmit water readings from the meters every hour on the hour. Every four hours, the information is sent to the water plant and immediately available in report form. If a meter is tampered with, the utilities supervisor will get an immediate email. The supervisor also will get a daily email of residents that used over a certain amount of water, say 500 gallons, to catch water leaks early. The ability to get reports at the touch of a button also eliminates the need for manual leak checks and appointments for final readings. “That’s really one of our goals in providing new meters, to provide better customer service,” Kline said. Kline also referenced the street levy, which will be placed on the upcoming November ballot. Kline shared statistics related to cost increases compared to the costs present when the levy was first put into place in 1984. “I wanted to look at street paint,” he said. “In 1984, the cost was $5.44 per gallon and today Street Superintendant Ben Herron received a bill for $18 per gallon.” Kline said that today the municipality employs 12, compared to 19-20 employees in 1990. He also emphasized zero dollars from the street levy go to employees’ wages. CDBG funding Miami County Community Development Program Manager Nikki Reese, who is in charge of administering the Community Development Block Grant fund, shared with council a presentation on the Fair Housing
Act. The presentation was required due to West Milton being a recipient of $90,000 in CDBG funding in 2012 for the demolition of the Paul Vance Products building as well as constructing the new downtown parking lot. The Federal Fair Housing Act was established in 1968 and prohibits discrimination in housing because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex and gender, disability and familial status. Specific to the state of Ohio, the act also includes military status and ancestry. Keeping pride September’s Community Pride winners were recognized at Tuesday’s meeting. Recipients were Bob and Camilla Herkins at 28 Duerr Drive, Orville and Sharon Wright at 125 Cedar Drive, and William and Dana Helsinger at 245 Hamilton Street. Camilla Herkins said her passion for working in the yard stems from her upbringing in England. “It is a really big deal over there to have beautiful gardens and flowers,” she said. She has lived in the States for about 40 years. • In other business, council passed the second and final ordinance regarding loud dogs. The current ordinance reads “no owner, keeper or harborer of a dog shall permit or allow such dog to annoy or disturb one or more of the inhabitants of two or more separate residences of this municipality by the frequent or habitual howling, yelping, barking or making of any other such noises by such dog within the corporate limits.” According to Police Chief Garry Kimpel, this is virtually unenforcable due to reasons such as trying to get two different neighbors to each give statements at the same time. This problem came to light because of complaints that kept coming for a particular residence. “The best way is to have the officer do the observation,” Kline said in a previous council meeting. The new amended ordinance is identical to Tipp City’s, which simply reads “no person shall harbor or keep a dog which by loud and frequent or habitual barking, howling or yelping, shall cause annoyance or disturbance to another person.” Council also resolved to participate in the State of Ohio purchasing program. They heard the first reading of an ordinance to amend appropriations. The unanticipated expenditures were in relation to the General, Park, Water, and Sewer funds. Council reminds residents that in case of emergency to dial the 9-1-1 dispatch center or for non-emergencies to call (937) 440-9911. The information is given on the West Milton Police Department’s answering service. Messages left on the West Milton police answering machine are not heard in a timely manner due to officers being out on patrol.

Question: Do you think the United States should engage in military action in Syria?
PERSPECTIVE
EDITORIAL ROUNDUP
The Times, Gainesville, Ga., on Mideast peace still elusive 12 years after 9/11 attacks: Twelve years ago this Wednesday, we were suddenly and stunningly jolted from our naive notion that the world was a much safer place than we had led ourselves to believe. The terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, took 3,000 lives and impacted millions more by jerking the blinders off our heads. So America saddled up, went to war in the Middle East, and eventually earned some measure of justice by taking down many al-Qaida leaders and sending the Taliban running into the hills. Yet a dozen years later, the Middle East looks no more stable nor peaceful than it was in 2001. That leads many to wonder what U.S. policy should be in the region. It’s a debate without a clear right or a left, nor easy answers, as the nation considers taking action in yet another turbulent locale, Syria. The 9/11 attacks directly led to the U.S. military action in Afghanistan. That war has cost 2,200 American lives with success hard to measure, though the No. 2 U.S. commander there, Army Lt. Gen. Mark Milley, said last week he believes victory still can be won before forces withdraw at the end of 2014. The terror attacks also indirectly led to the U.S. invasion of Iraq a year later, based on the belief Saddam Hussein’s regime had supported the terrorists and amassed destructive weapons. Our nation committed more than 4,400 lives and billions of dollars in a divisive engagement that many still believe was a mistake … Now civil war in Syria pits Bashar Assad’s government against revolutionaries seeking to add that country to the Arab Spring list of toppled dictators that included Libya’s Gadhafi and Egypt’s Mubarak. His armed forces’ apparent use of chemical weapons in a recent battle has the Obama administration seeking “targeted, limited” airstrikes against some of his military sites. If we learned anything from these messy Mideast uprisings it’s that removing one group of bad actors doesn’t lead to peace, stability and democracy — usually just to a different group of equally bad actors who impose their own brand of oppressive rule and political retribution.
The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune on vexing U.N. vetoes: Many Americans may be infuriated that Russia and China have signaled their readiness to veto any United Nations Security Council resolution that calls for intervention to punish Syria’s use of chemical weapons in its brutal civil war. According to U.N. rules, adopted in 1945 when the international organization was created, any of the five permanent members (the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, China and France) of the Security Council may veto any resolution brought before the council, thus preventing any action the other members may favor. Critics believe that the U.N. founders made a terrible mistake in granting that veto power, and perhaps they’re right. But it would be a serious mistake to think that the veto power doesn’t serve American interests as well as those of our adversaries. Over the years, the American ambassador to the U.N. has frequently exercised the right to cast a veto. … The first United States veto came in 1970 and dealt with a major crisis in what was then Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). The United Kingdom, of which Rhodesia was once a colony, vetoed seven Security Council resolutions on that subject. Two years later, the United States cast the only veto on a resolution that was critical of Israel. In fact, since 1972 the United States has been by far the most frequent user of the veto and nearly all the vetoes involved resolutions that were contrary to Israel’s political interests. … Benjamin Ferencz, a prosecutor at the Nuremberg war crimes trials after World War II, suggested (in a recent letter to The New York Times) that in this case the Security Council should refer the matter to the International Criminal Court in The Hague, “which is competent to penalize crimes against humanity.” What he didn’t say, however, is how the Syrian leader, Bashar al-Assad, could be forced to face that court. Still, the U.N., for its faults and machinations, does provide a useful if imperfect global platform for maintaining peaceful relations and providing humanitarian aid, as world leaders envisioned when it was formed at the end of World War II. The United States should never allow its involvement to diminish its security or sovereignty, but the United Nations, vetoes and all, does serve a valuable purpose.

What about the children? What about the children? To the Editor: This is reference to the Gentlemen of the Road concert. Now that the famed concert is over, I hope all of you on the city government have taken time to think about the message that you sent to our children and teens. You have a D.A.R.E. program implemented in all of our schools telling kids not to drink or do drugs — to learn to say no and not go along with the crowd. Yet you sold alcohol on school property and allowed drugs to be used on school property as well as any where else they wanted to use them and looked the other way. What are you telling our kids? That its OK as long as it brings in the ALMIGHTY DOLLAR!!!!!!! Dollar signs seem to be the most important thing to our city. Mayor Beamish, you, of all people, being a former teacher and principal; how could you say it was OK? I think all of our government officals should have to volunteer at a drug and alcohol rehab for youth and see exactly what being an addict does to them and then maybe, and I use the word lightly, you would change you mind about the ALMIGHTY DOLLAR — but you probably still wouldn’t get it.

One telephone call I will never forget
By David Fong Executive Editor
I was asleep when the phone rang. When I saw it was my mother calling and I immediately answered it — something I almost never do. She asked if I was watching the news on television. “No,” I replied in my most-annoyed tone. “I was sleeping. What do you want?” So long as I live, I’ll never forget her next four words: “David, we’re under attack.” Those are the most chilling words I’ve ever heard — they still bring tears to my eyes more than a decade later. I had no clue what she was talking about. It didn’t take me long to find out. I asked Michelle — to whom I had been married to for less than three months at that point — to turn on the television. We sat there in our bed, staring at what was unfolding in front of us. We were under attack. Terrorists had already hijacked and flown planes into the Pentagon and both World Trade Center towers. We would also find out soon enough that one attack and been thwarted and a plane had flown into a field in Pennsylvania. We didn’t know what to think, say or feel. Soon enough, however, our journalistic instincts kicked in — we needed to be at work. Although she was a copy editor at a metropolitan newspaper in the area and

At some point after dinner, I was sitting in the living room talking to my mother. I think we both just needed a few minutes away from the television.

I think part of it was me just being happy I was with my mommy. At times like those, don’t we all want our mommies? We were under attack. So much has changed since then. I am no longer sports editor — I am now the editor of the paper. When news of that magnitude breaks, I am in charge of making sure it gets covered. My nephew is no longer going to preschool picnics — he’s now a sophomore in high school and I am more proud of him than he’ll ever know. Michelle and I are no longer newlyweds — we have been married for 12 years and are the proud parents of two amazing children. Those aren’t the only things that have changed, I hope. I like to think we are safer now. I like to think an attack like that will never happen again. I hope and pray I’ll never have to wake one of my children out of a sound sleep to tell them, “We’re under attack.”

Official: Reports of sex assault in Navy increase NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — The number of sexual assaults reported to the Navy has grown by about 50 percent in the past year, which Navy officials said Wednesday is a sign that a growing number of sailors feel more comfortable reporting an assault and believe something will be done about it when they do. The Navy said it is on pace to end the 2013 fiscal year later this month with about 1,100 reports of sexual assault. That’s up from the 726 sexual assaults reported in the previous fiscal year. Rear Adm. Sean Buck, the Navy’s top sexual assault prevention and response officer, told reporters at Naval Station Norfolk that the increase was something Navy officials had expected as they ramped up efforts to let sailors know that sexual assaults are being treated seriously. They also noted there are plenty of resources available to victims. A Defense Department report released in May estimated that across all military branches, 26,000 service members had been sexually assaulted in the previous year. At the same time, only 2,949 sexual assaults were officially reported throughout the Defense Department, according to the report. The survey said there were a variety of reasons military members didn’t
want to report a sexual assault to a military authority. The belief that nothing would be done if an assault were reported was one of the most common responses among respondents. Those estimates and a string of high profile sexual assault cases involving the military this year helped spur a renewed call to action in Washington to combat sexual assaults, which Navy leaders have repeatedly said is a priority. The Navy has undergone an aggressive sexual assault awareness and prevention campaign over the past several years, and recently announced changes to the way it sells alcohol on base in an effort to curb behaviors that can lead to sexual assaults. “We would like that needle to move tomorrow, or this afternoon. But the sense is you need to be able to allow some programs to be put into place to mature, to be talked about and to be acted upon,” Buck said Much of the Navy’s efforts focus on educational campaigns, letting sailors know what constitutes a sexual assault and where victims can report an assault and find resources they need. That’s led to more sailors reporting sexual assaults, which Buck notes is a good thing as the Navy works to eradicate it from the fleet.
“What we’re trying to do is close that gap between anonymous surveys where sailors say that they’ve been victims of sexual assault in their past to those sailors that actually come forward to report,” Buck said. “The initial goal is to close that gap to where the number of reports actually equal the number of survey responses and then ultimately to have both of those numbers decline down to zero.” The Navy released updated figures after Buck spoke at an annual training conference for about 150 of the Navy’s sexual assault response coordinators. Those coordinators, mostly civilians, are on bases worldwide to ensure victims have access to medical treatment, counseling, legal advice and other support services. In the past fiscal year, coordinators also trained more than 2,000 commanders on their roles and responsibilities within the Navy’s sexual assault prevention and response program. Buck said the feedback from sailors is very positive. “They’re appreciative of the attention from senior leadership and they’re also very aware of how broad the topic is being discussed in the Navy now, from the workplace all the way up to the Pentagon, all the way up to Capitol Hill,” Buck said.
A Hollywood studio where dogs learn to fly LOS ANGELES (AP) — For $349, your dog can learn to fly. Security checks and bumpy air are all in a day’s training at a Hollywood film studio to prepare your dog for a safe and calm flight. The Air Hollywood class is billed as the first in a real fuselage on a sound stage with a simulator that mimics takeoff, turbulence and landing. Hollywood extras create crowds and chaos that come with terminals, luggage carts and the blare announcing arrivals, delays and departures. The idea was the brainchild of Talaat Captan, president and CEO of Air Hollywood, the world’s largest aviation-themed film studio, who noticed a dog owner having a rough go getting a pooch through airport security. “The owner was stressed out and the dog was freaking out,” Captan said. “I figured, ‘Why don’t I train those people?’” He hired his friend Megan Blake to write a program and teach the class with three other instructors and her dog Super Smiley. An actress, animal trainer and life-
style coach, Blake also has a psychology degree from Georgia Tech. With more dogs racking up air miles these days, it makes sense to take obedience school to a new level, said Heidi Heubner, who directs volunteers, including airport therapy dogs, at Los Angeles World Airport. There are no numbers on how many pets are taking to the skies, but they have become essential parts of a growing number of families and traveling with them for work and play is becoming more common, said Kim Cunningham, a spokesman for the International Pet and Animal Transportation Association in Texas. It will vary by airline, but there’s always a fee for cabin pets — those under 20 pounds that have to stay in carriers under the seat during a flight. Workings dogs or trained service animals (most airlines also allow psychiatric and emotional support animals, too) fly free, but owners must give the airline documentation and advance notice. The animals sit at their owner’s feet during flights. The class doesn’t address
cargo pets. The class is using the same studio where parts of “Bridesmaids,” ”Kill Bill” and 500 other movies were made. Television scenes from “NCIS,” ”Modern Family” and “The Newsroom” have also been filmed there. Last year, Air Hollywood conducted a test class with 60 puppies from Guide Dogs for the Blind. “Some of the handlers were more nervous than the dogs because they don’t like to fly,” said Rick Wilcox, who oversees puppy-training in Southern California. “It was amazing how realistic it was.” Two things are deliberately absent in the simulated airport: the smell of jet fuel and a change in cabin pressure that makes your ears pop. Captan opened his studio about six months before Sept. 11. On Sept. 12, the phone started ringing because airports were locked down and movie and television studios couldn’t shoot scenes they needed. The studio has grown to include everything from a private jet to a 747, as well as props and supplies.
FBI arrests ex-TSA worker after LA airport threats LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles International Airport security screener was arrested hours after quitting his job for making unspecified threats referencing Wednesday’s Sept. 11 anniversary and calling airport officials and telling them to evacuate terminals, the FBI said. Parts of the nation’s third-largest airport were cleared and searched late Tuesday. Nothing was found and there were no major disruptions to flights. The former screener, Nna Alpha Onuoha, 29, was arrested just before midnight for investigation of making threats. Onuoha, originally from Nigeria, had worked for the Transportation Security Administration since 2006 but was suspended recently, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said. He showed up at LAX on Tuesday afternoon, resigned from his job and left behind a package at TSA’s airport headquarters that was addressed to another agency employee, she said. A bomb squad found no explosives or harmful contents in the package but discovered an eight-page letter in which Onuoha expressed disdain for the U.S.
and referenced the event that led to his suspension, Eimiller said. It was not clear Wednesday why TSA suspended him. The TSA did not immediately respond to a phone call seeking information on Onuoha. It could not be immediately determined if Onuoha had a lawyer. Later Tuesday, a man believed to be Onuoha made two phone calls to TSA saying certain airport terminals should be evacuated, Eimiller said. During one call, the man told an employee he would “be watching” to see if authorities evacuated the terminals as instructed. A search of Onuoha’s apartment in Inglewood, near LAX, found no dangerous materials but did turn up a note containing unspecified threats that cited the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, authorities said. Additional details from the letter were not immediately provided. Onuoha was arrested in Riverside about 65 miles away. The church parking lot where his minivan was parked was cleared and a bomb squad robot conducted a search in and around the vehicle. Nothing dangerous was found.
Well Armed Woman chapter encourages gun safety By BOB JOHNSON

“When I came to start teaching them, most learned to defend themselves, but once they learned more about shooting, they discover that it is quite fun as a sport,” she said. “It becomes like yoga in a way. It’s a stress reliever, it’s fun and they have a fun time doing it. The women have agreed that it is kind of like (shopping for) shoes and handbags.” The club, which is a part of the larger national organization of The Well Armed Woman, include women who range in age from 21 to 80-plus. They meet every month at Saginaw Field and Stream Club in Thomas Township.

THOMAS TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — As her interest in shooting as a sport grew, Joey Lee found it hard to find other women in the area with the same hobby. So she started an allwomen gun club. The Well Armed WomanSaginaw Valley Chapter includes about 60 gun-toting women from throughout the Great Lakes Bay Region, said Lee, chapter leader. A 60-year-old retiree, she said she has been shooting guns since she was a kid. “I got into handguns about 12 years ago,” she told The Saginaw News ( http://bit.ly/15ARwQ4 ). “But I grew up shooting rifles and shotguns at summer camp. I taught both of my daughters to shoot in their late teens and early 20s, and they thought I lost my mind when I took up shooting.” Lee said when she first took an interest in handguns, it was hard to find other women who shared her hobby. “There are a lot of women who have an interest but do not know how to get started,” Lee said. “When I first started, it was hard to find women and even harder to find a group.” Lee said she owns six

Try this delicious carrot pie recipe BY LOVINA EICHER The Amish Cook
We turned the calendar another page since my last column was written. School doors have opened for a new year. Benjamin is in the eighth grade, Loretta is in the seventh, Joseph in fifth, Lovina is in third and Kevin is in the second. They all came home on the first day saying school is a lot more fun this year. I’m sure as the days turn to weeks and weeks to months I’ll be hearing a different story. On Sunday morning, Joe and I — along with Verena, Loretta, Lovina and Kevin left for Hicksville, where we attended church. Four young boys were baptized, including Joe’s cousin Stephen. It was nice to get to visit with Stephen’s parents Jonas and Mandy and all his siblings. I also met some of my readers and we appreciated all the hospitality we received. It’s always nice and interesting to meet new people and make new friends. My cousin Toby’s son Amos, wife and children were also there at church. I don’t think I would have recognized Amos anymore. Nine and a half years
ago when we lived in Berne, Amos went to the same church district we did and was just a teenager. This would be a grandson to Aunt Lovina Raber from Ohio. In the afternoon we stopped to see where Jonas and Mandy live. They haveseven children and three with muscular dystrophy. Their son Neal, 34, has his furniture shop attached to the house. Everything is wheelchair level so he can work from his wheelchair. He showed us some of the furniture he has made, which is very nice. We were served punch and a snack. We had a short, but enjoyable, visit. Jacob, Emma and family also attended church and visited with Jonas and Mandy. Mandy, Jacob’s mother and Joe’s mother are all sisters. We headed for Berne, Indiana around 3:30 p.m. and met up with the rest of our family coming from Michigan. On Monday, we enjoyed the day at brother Amos’ house for our annual family gathering. If I counted correctly our family member count has reached 90 although three of the nieces and nephews weren’t there. There was lots of food
there, so I won’t try to mention it all. Amos had a 180-pound hog roasted and there was lots of meat left. It was delicious! Volleyball, corn hole, and horseshoe games were played. I had never played the cornhole game, but sister Verena and I teamed up against sisters Liz and Susan. Needless to say I was on the losing team but we had fun trying. Everyone brought snacks that were enjoyed later in the afternoon. We started for home around 4:35 p.m. and arrived home around 6:40 p.m. Everyone was SHNS Photo ready for bedtime early.

High-heat roasting can transform cauliflower By ELIZABETH KARMEL The Associated Press
The first time I roasted a head of cauliflower was a pivotal food moment for me. It changed my vegetable eating life. Before that, I was able to eat one or two pieces of cauliflower, and even then only if they were smothered in cheese sauce. But once I learned how roasting dramatically changes the flavor of cauliflower, I could eat an entire head straight up. It’s really that good. I still remember watching the pale ivory cauliflower changing colors and emitting these dark, caramelized cabbage-y scents from the oven. I was skeptical, but patient. My patience paid off. Even after making it dozens of times, it still amazes me that something as simple as high-heat roasting can transform this Carrot Pie vegetable from something lackluster into Ingredients something that you — quite literally — 1 ½ cup cooked mashed carrots can’t stop eating. So, I thought to myself, 1 /2 cup brown sugar I wonder what would happen if I roasted 1 /2 cup white sugar cauliflower, then turned the intensely fla1 tablespoon dark molasses vorful florets into soup? 1 /8 teaspoon cloves The results?

Chicken stock, or ice cream if desired. veggie stock if you prefer, and half-and-half thin it out to a soup-like consistency. I also serve the soup with a sprinkle of crisp country ham or apple wood smoked bacon to dress it up. Other than those few IAMI ALLEY supporting ingredients, it is the roasted cauliflower that steals the show.

Haves, have-nots as health care markets open
AP Photo NSA’s Utah Data Center is shown in this June 6 file photo taken in Bluffdale, Utah. Newly declassified documents released Tuesday Sept. 10, 2013 tell a story of a surveillance apparatus so unwieldy and complex that nobody fully comprehended it, even as the government pointed it at the American people in the name of protecting them. Documents from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court show that even senior lawyers and officials weren’t sure how the system worked and didn’t understand what they were told.
The NSA: Too big for anyone to understand
WASHINGTON (AP) — The surveillance machine grew too big for anyone to understand. The National Security Agency set it in motion in 2006 and the vast network of supercomputers, switches and wiretaps began gathering Americans’ phone and Internet records by the millions, looking for signs of terrorism. But every day, NSA analysts snooped on more American phone records than they were allowed to. Some officials searched databases of phone records without even realizing it. Others shared the results of their searches with people who weren’t authorized to see them. It took nearly three years

before the government figured out that so much had gone wrong. It took even longer to figure out why. Newly declassified documents released Tuesday tell a story of a surveillance apparatus so unwieldy and complex that nobody fully comprehended it, even as the government pointed it at the American people in the name of protecting them. “There was no single person who had a complete technical understanding,” government lawyers explained to a federal judge in 2009. During a summer in which former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden released America’s surveillance secrets to the world,
the Obama administration has repeatedly tried to reassure people that the NSA’s powers were kept in check by Congress and the courts. The mistakes discovered in 2009 have been fixed, the president said, a reflection of that oversight. But the documents from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court show that, in developing the world’s most sophisticated surveillance network, even senior lawyers and officials weren’t sure how the system worked and didn’t understand what they were told. “It appears there was never a complete understanding among the key personnel . regarding what each individual meant by
the terminology,” lawyers wrote in March 2009 as the scope of the problems came into focus. As a result, the judges on the surveillance court, who rely on the NSA to explain the surveillance program, approved a program that was far more intrusive than they believed. “Given the executive branch’s responsibility for and expertise in determining how best to protect our national security, and in light of the scale of this bulk collection program, the court must rely heavily on the government to monitor this program,” Judge Reggie B. Walton wrote in a 2009 order that found the NSA had repeatedly misrepresented its programs.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Having health insurance used to hinge on where you worked and what your medical history said. Soon that won’t matter, with openaccess markets for subsidized coverage coming Oct. 1 under President Barack Obama’s overhaul. But there’s a new wild card, something that didn’t seem so critical when Congress passed the Affordable Care Act back in 2010: where you live. Entrenched political divisions over “Obamacare,” have driven most Republican-led states to turn their backs on the biggest expansion of the social safety net in a half century. If you’re uninsured in a state that’s opposed, you may not get much help picking the right private health plan for your budget and your family’s needs. The differences will be more glaring if you’re poor and your state rejected the law’s Medicaid expansion. Unless leaders reverse course, odds are you’ll remain uninsured. That’s because people below the poverty line do not qualify for subsidies to buy coverage in the markets. “We are going to have a new environment where consumers may be victims of geography,” said Sam Karp of the California HealthCare Foundation, a nonprofit helping states tackle practical problems of implementation. “If I’m a low-wage earner in California, I may qualify for Medicaid. With the exact same income in Texas, I may not qualify.” The health care law is finally leaving the drawing boards to become a real program with citizens participating. But in many parts of the country, the decisions of Republicans opposed to the law will trump the plans of Democrats who wrote it. Still, there is a new bottom line. Health insurance marketplaces in every state will provide options for millions of people who don’t have job-based coverage, who can’t afford their own plan or have a health problem that would get them turned down. The feds will run the markets in states that refused to do so. The coverage won’t be free, even after sliding-scale subsidies keyed to your income. That’s significant because starting next year most Americans will also have a legal obligation to get covered or face fines. Some people who now purchase bare-bones individual plans will complain the new ones cost too much. Others, in good health, may resent the government telling them to purchase insurance they don’t think they need. Nonetheless, the number of uninsured people is expected to drop markedly, bringing the United States closer to other economically advanced countries that guarantee coverage.
Unresolved NYC primary pauses for 9/11 remembrance NEW YORK (AP) — As the New York City mayoral race paused Wednesday for remembrances of the Sept. 11 attacks, the chaotic campaign remained without an answer a day after the primary as to whether the top Democratic finisher, Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, will be forced into a runoff. With all precincts reporting, the Board of Elections said de Blasio had 40.12 percent of the vote, a whisker above the 40 percent threshold he needs to avoid an automatic Oct. 1 oneon-one showdown with second-place finisher Bill Thompson. Election officials will recount the votes Friday, according to Board of Elections spokeswoman Valerie Vazquez. And at least 19,038 outstanding absentee and special ballots will be added to the total Monday, she said. The new total could push the Democrats into a runoff. Neither de Blasio nor Thompson addressed votecounting Wednesday, as both followed city tradition by abstaining from campaigning on Sept. 11. With de Blasio so close to 40 percent, Democratic leaders may pressure Thompson to drop out of the race in the name of party unity. Exit poll-
ing shows de Blasio would handily defeat Thompson in a runoff, 52 to 34 percent, with 9 percent of voters saying they would stay home. But Thompson made clear Tuesday that he wanted to continue campaigning, a stance he is expected to reiterate Thursday. Thompson, an ex-comptroller and his party’s 2009 nominee for mayor, has 26.2 percent of the vote. He was followed by City Council Speaker Christine Quinn at 15 percent, Comptroller John Liu at 7 percent and ex-U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner at 5 percent. De Blasio, who made his interracial family and quest to fight the city’s economic inequality the centerpieces of his campaign, made no mention of the potential runoff in his speech to supporters late Tuesday. “We are better as a city when we make sure that everyone has a shot,” de Blasio told the raucous crowd. “We begin tonight.” His rise was as sudden as it was unexpected. Not even two months ago, de Blasio was an afterthought in the campaign but surged thanks in part to an ad campaign that featured his 15-year-old Afro-sporting son, Dante, who became such a cult
figure that the campaign embraced the Twitter hash tag #fromentum. And more than any other candidate, de Blasio benefited from the rapid fall of Weiner, who was leading in the polls before he was felled by his old demons. Weiner’s run was in part a political comeback attempt after a sexting scandal forced him to resign from Congress in 2011. But a gossip site revealed this summer that Weiner used the online handle Carlos Danger to continue to send X-rated messages to women even after he left office. His ill-fated campaign had two final embarrassments in its last moments: One of his online paramours, Sydney Leathers, tried to crash his primary night rally and Weiner was caught making an obscene gesture at reporters as he was driven away. The exit polling showed the appeal of de Blasio, who holds the position of the city’s official watchdog, to be broad-based: He was ahead in all five boroughs; was even with Thompson, the only African-American candidate, with black voters; and was ahead of Quinn, the lone woman in the race, with female voters. He also led Quinn among gay voters; she is openly gay.
The voter interviews were conducted by Edison Media Research for The Associated Press and other news organizations. The winner of the mayor’s race in November will assume the helm of the nation’s largest city at a critical juncture, as its crime rate shrinks but income inequality widens, and the nearly completed One World Trade Center symbolizes a new era after the terrorist attacks of 2001. Nearly three-quarters of Democratic primary voters said in the exit polls that the next mayor ought to move away from the policies of Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who took over in the months after the attacks and whose tenure is seen as a symbol of the post-9/11 era in the city. De Blasio, 52, has fashioned himself as the cleanest break from the Bloomberg years, proposing a tax on the wealthy to fund universal pre-kindergarten and changes to city police practices he says discriminate against minorities. On the Republican side, the candidates largely pledged to follow Bloomberg’s lead. Lhota, former head of the region’s transit agency and a onetime deputy mayor under Rudolph Giuliani, led the
race from start to finish, fending off the self-financed bid of billionaire grocery store magnate John Catsimatidis. And another scandalscarred politician, Eliot Spitzer, who resigned as governor in 2008 after paying for sex with prostitutes,
tried to run a self-financed campaign for the lesser office of city comptroller. But his distant, televisionheavy campaign struggled to connect with voters and he lost Tuesday’s primary to Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Thursday, Sept. 12, the 255th day of 2013. There are 110 days left in the year. On this date: In 1846, Elizabeth Barrett secretly married Robert Browning at St. Marylebone Church in London. In 1888, entertainer Maurice Chevalier was born in Paris. In 1913, Olympic legend Jesse Owens was born in Oakville, Ala. In 1938, Adolf Hitler demanded the right of self-determination for the Sudeten (soo-DAYT'-un) Germans in Czechoslovakia. In 1942, during World War II, a German U-boat off West Africa torpedoed the RMS Laconia, which was carrying Italian prisoners of war, British soldiers and civilians. In 1953, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy married Jacqueline Lee Bouvier (boo-veeAY') in Newport, R.I. In 1960, Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kennedy addressed questions about his Roman Catholic faith, telling a Southern Baptist group, "I do not speak for my church on public matters, and the church does not speak for me." In 1962, in a speech at Rice University in Houston, President John F. Kennedy reaffirmed his support for the manned space program, declaring: "We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard." In 1963, "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold," a novel by John le Carre, went on sale in Britain. In 1977, South African black student leader Steve Biko (BEE'koh) died while in police custody, triggering an international outcry. In 1986, Joseph Cicippio (sihSIHP'-ee-oh), the acting comptroller at the American University in Beirut, was kidnapped (he was released in December 1991). In 1992, the space shuttle Endeavour blasted off, carrying with it Mark Lee and Jan Davis, the first married couple in space; Mae Jemison, the first black woman in space; and Mamoru Mohri, the first Japanese national to fly on a U.S. spaceship.

Suicide bombs hit Egypt military in Sinai, kill nine EL-ARISH, Egypt (AP) — In near-simultaneous attacks, a pair of suicide bombers rammed their explosives-laden cars into military targets in Egypt’s volatile Sinai on Wednesday, killing at least nine soldiers and nudging the conflict there closer to a full-blown insurgency. The bombings in the town of Rafah on the border with the Gaza Strip appear to be a deadly response by insurgents to a military crackdown on their north Sinai hideouts that has reportedly left over three dozen dead. Suicide attacks are a new element in the wave of political violence triggered initially by the ouster of Egypt’s Islamist president Mohammed Morsi on July 3, and intensified by a violent crackdown on his supporters’ protest camps. They suggest that al-Qaida-inspired groups may be developing a new capability to strike at security and other targets, both in Sinai and elsewhere in Egypt. One of the two bombings in the town of Rafah brought down a two-story building housing the local branch of military intelligence. It collapsed the entire structure, two security officials said, speaking anonymously because they were not authorized to talk to the media. They said no bodies were found under the rubbles, but the attack

left 10 soldiers and seven civilians, three of them women, wounded. The second attack targeted an armored personnel carrier at an army checkpoint not far from the intelligence headquarters, the officials added. The officials said the remains of the two suicide bombers have been recovered. The officials gave a death toll of nine for both attacks but did not say how many were killed in each. “The use of car bombs and suicide attacks in a new turn,” military spokesman Col. Ahmed Mohammed Ali told The Associated Press. He said the bombings appear to be revenge for the Sinai offensive, which he said hurt
the militants by destroying weapons and ammunition caches. “This will not stop us, but will increase our determination to confront terrorism,” he said. The attacks come less than a week after a suicide car bombing targeted the convoy of Interior Minister Mohammed Ibrahim, who is in charge of the police, shortly after he left his east Cairo home. Ibrahim escaped unharmed but a civilian was killed. One of the al-Qaidainspired groups based in Sinai, Ansar Jerusalem, later claimed responsibility for that bombing. The claim was never verified. If true, it would be the first time a Sinai-based group carried a suicide attack in
the heart of Cairo. These three bombings, plus another one in Sinai last month, are the first in Egypt since the 2011 uprising that overthrew longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak. The conflict in the Sinai adds to Egypt’s woes as it struggles to regain political stability and economic viability. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for Wednesday’s attacks. Col. Ali said it was still early to determine which group or groups carried it out. However, Ansar Jerusalem issued a statement Wednesday claiming responsibility for three other recent attacks on the military.
BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi authorities are resorting to desperate measures to quell rising violence, ordering huge numbers of cars off the roads, bulldozing soccer fields and even building a medieval-style moat around one city in an effort to keep car bombs out. Many Iraqis question the security benefits of the heavy-handed efforts, lampooning them online and complaining that they only add to the daily struggle of living in a country weathering its worst bout of bloodshed in half a decade. Over the weekend, authorities began banning several hundred thousand vehicles from Baghdad streets each day in a bid to stop the increasing number of car bombings. Cars with license plates ending in odd numbers are allowed on the streets one day, followed by cars with even-numbered plates the next. Government cars, taxis, trucks and a few other categories of vehicles are exempted from the policy. “Easing the traffic load on checkpoints will make it easier for security forces to search vehicles without causing long lines,” an Interior Ministry official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media. Big backlogs of cars, he said, “put pressure on the security forces to do hasty searches.” Deadly violence, much of it caused by car bombs, has spiked in recent months as insurgents capitalize on rising sectarian and ethnic tensions. The scale of the bloodshed has reached levels not seen since 2008. More than 4,000 people have been killed over the past five months alone, according to U.N. figures. Still, many Iraqis think the license plate policy is a step too far. “Our genius security officials have turned license plates into the sole solution for all of Baghdad’s security problems,” said Haider Muhsin, a government employee and father of three. He fears he’ll lose out on a good chunk of the $400 in cash he earned on the side each month by shuttling colleagues to work, and won’t be able to take his children to school on certain days. Another Baghdad resident, Qais Issa, is now spending much more on taxis on days he can’t drive. “Once again, the leaders of this country are failing. They keep coming up with primitive and useless solutions that add more problems to our life,” he said. The new policy has become a big topic among Iraqis on social media sites like Facebook. Many posts ridiculed the decision, with some joking that the government will next allow people to go out only according to the first letter in their names. Underneath a photo
showing Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II getting off a bus, someone quipped that her plate number must end in an even number on an odd-number day. The al-Sharqiya television channel, which known for its anti-government stance, has launched what it’s calling the “Pedal It” initiative, offering more than 2,000 bicycles to Baghdad residents hurt by the license plate limits. It started handing out the first batch of bikes this week. In June, authorities in Baghdad temporarily banned all cars with temporary black license plates. Those cars made up a large percentage of older vehicles on the roads, but their ownership history is difficult to trace, and authorities feared they were more likely to be used in car bombings. Now only black-plated cars from outside Baghdad are banned. Earlier this year, authorities ordered the closure of Iraq’s border crossing with Jordan, plugging up one of the country’s most vital economic lifelines. Officials cited unspecified security concerns, but many residents in the western, Sunnidominated Anbar province where the crossing is located saw the move as collective punishment for antigovernment protests. It was eventually reopened. In the volatile province of Diyala, northeast of Baghdad, the local government recently launched a campaign to bulldoze several soccer fields after a series of deadly bombings during games killed or wounded dozens of spectators. The head of the local soccer federation, Salah Kamal, said more than 20 soccer fields have been razed, causing the cancellation of several matches and angering young people who have few options for leisure activities. “The solution should have been providing better security at the fields instead of punishing the youth,” he said. Police turned down earlier requests for extra protection, he added. Authorities in the province have also urged residents to avoid holding large funerals after a series of deadly attacks on mourners. And north of the capital, authorities have completed more than 70 percent of a medieval-style dry moat around much of the city of Kirkuk, home to an ethnic mix of Arabs, Kurds and Turkomen who all have competing claims to the oil-rich area. The 57 kilometer (35 mile) -long trench will surround much of the city, according to Rakan alJubouri, the deputy Kirkuk governor. Al-Jubouri said the project will be finished by the end of the year at a cost of $2.7 million, and will significantly improve the security of the city by keeping many car bombs out.

Always critical
Every game a must-win in Brewer’s eyes BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor dfong@civitasmedia.com TROY — No one has to tell Scot Brewer how critical it is for his team to pick up a win this week against Xenia — the way the Troy High School football coach sees it, picking up a win every week is critical. “It’s no different for us this week — we’re going to go about our business the same way we do every week,” Brewer said. “We are going to play with urgency. Our young pups (Troy will start nine sophomores against the Buccaneers) have got another game under their belts now. The lights won’t be as bright.” Still, though, statistics show that an 0-3 start — which, after starting the season with losses to Chaminade Julienne and Springfield Shawnee, Troy would be facing with a loss to Xenia — doesn’t portend well for the rest of the season.
No Troy team has started 0-3 since 1982 — and that team ended the season 0-10. Since 1897, Troy has only started the season 0-3 a total of 10 times — 1902, 1912, 1925, 1952, 1953, 1961, 1966, 1967, 1975 and 1982. In those 10 years, Troy finsihed the season a combined 17-67-1, a winning percentage of just .250. Only once in those 10 years did Troy not finish with a losing record — in 1961, when the Trojans rebounded from an 0-3 start to finish the season 5-5. “Not only do we have a lot of sophomores playing, we’ve got a lot of seniors that never played varsity football before this year,” Brewer said. “We’ve got a lot of juniors who have never played varsity football before this year. When you get a big crowd like last week and there’s a lot going on like there was last week — we had a lot of guys walking around with their eyes wide open.”

Finishing strong Trojans rout Wave BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com
TROY — Coaches love to preach the virtues of being unselfish. Sometimes, though, a more balanced approach is called for. “As an offensive player, you’ve got to develop a sense of selfishness in the offensive third,” Troy girls soccer coach Michael Rasey said. “If you get the chance to take a shot from 18-20 yards out, you square up and take the shot.” His Trojans had that philosophy for all of Wednesday night’s Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division opener against Greenville, but it took until the second half for it to truly pay off. But when it did, it did in a big way as Troy tallied four goals in a three-minute stretch to get rolling in what turned into a 12-1 rout at Troy Memorial Stadium. It was an important win for

We’ve had good scores there, the girls enjoy playing it and the course is in fantastic shape.” Elsass-Smith’s 37 was good enough for medalist honors on the day.

A different view of the rivalry Once a player, M-U’s Lane will now coach vs. Tipp BY COLIN FOSTER Associate Sports Editor colinfoster @civitasmedia.com
WEST MILTON — Tippecanoe coach Charlie Burgbacher has seen many games against Milton-Union from the sideline. For the last several years, however, it had been Bret Pearce on the MiltonUnion sideline coaching against him. The rivalry will welcome a new face this time around in first-year Milton-Union coach Mark Lane, who admitted it may be a little weird coaching against Burgbacher, considering he was coach at Tippecanoe during Lane’s playing days. “Being part of the Milton-Tipp rivalry is something you will never forget, and I look forward to being part of it again,” Lane said. “Milton has had quite a few good players over the years. He is one of many,” said Burgbacher about Lane during his playing days. “It’s good to see him get the opportunity to be head coach at his alma mater. It’s an honor to coach against a former player that once played against us.” It is one of the bigger football rivalries in Miami County — and regardless of records, the game is always competitive. In the last four years, though, the series has been a bit onesided with the Red Devils winning all four games since the rivalry resumed in 2009. “It’s a rivalry that goes back quite a few years, we’ve played against each
other every year probably since 1941. (2007 and 08 they didn’t play),” Burgbacher said. The Red Devils are coming off two consecutive blowout wins over Graham (68-0) and Greenville (42-14) to start the season. Then there’s the Bulldogs (0-2), which have dropped a pair of close ones to open the season, including their season opener at Miami East (1814) and Week 2 game at Oakwood (27-26). MiltonUnion is just five points away from being undefeated. This week will be the Bulldogs’ first home game of the season. But Lane and his bunch are staying positive. Besides, the players and staff for Milton-Union all know what a win against rival Tippecanoe could do for their season. “I’ll be honest, the message has been what it’s always been, and that’s continue working hard, keep doing little things right — and the big-picture stuff will take care of itself,” Lane said. “I believe in that wholeheartedly, the team believes in that.” “We’ve played two teams that are very strong, and we came up on the short end. We’re looking for our first win against anybody, it doesn’t have to be Tipp. We’re just trying to get on that winning side.” Burgbacher would prefer it if Milton’s first win didn’t come against his team. He does, however, know if his team bring its full effort and focus out on Friday night, anything could happen.
CIVITAS MEDIA FILE PHOTO/AMANDA ULLERY
“I know they are big, they’ve got some nice size, I know they’ve got a good power running game,” Burgbacher said. “They have good fullback play. They will give ball to halfback off tackle to the outside. They will run fullback up middle. They’re going to throw the ball, the kid (M-U quarterback London Cowan) is back that played the year ago. “Looking at their first couple games, they were able to move the ball and stop teams at certain times. We have to make sure we are in control from beginning, if not we could be in for a long night.” • Miss.

Unlikely power source Mesoraco homers to lead Reds past Cubs CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds got power from some unlikely players to complete a 7-3 homestand. Devin Mesoraco hit his first home run in more than a month and Jack Hannahan added his first career pinch-hit homer as Cincinnati avoided a sweep by the last-place Chicago Cubs with a 6-0 win on Wednesday. Mesoraco, hitless in his previous 13 at bats, had three to lead the Reds. The homestand included a 3-1 record against St. Louis and three-game sweep of NL West Division-leading Los Angeles. “It felt like I got the monkey off my back,” Hannahan said. “The last two years, I hit home runs on opening day. It was huge.” Hannahan didn’t get many pinch-hit opportunities in the American League. “This is all new to me,” he said. The hit turned a close game into a rout. “It wasn’t easy,” Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker said. “Everybody was happy for Hannahan. It was big to get those runs.” Cincinnati entered the game in third place in the Central, three games behind the division-leading Cardinals and two behind Pittsburgh. After winning the first two games of the threegame series, the Cubs were in position for their first sweep of the Reds in Cincinnati since May 2001. Mike Leake (13-6) threw 107 pitches in 5 2-3 innings en route to a career high in wins, despite humid conditions and an 84-degree temperature at game time. Leake allowed four hits and four walks with six strikeouts. He joined relievers J.J. Hoover, Alfredo Simon, Manny Parra and Sam LeCure to produce Cincinnati’s 16th shutout of the season, four more than last season.

Cincinnati Reds' Devin Mesoraco (39) is congratulated by third base coach Mark Berry after hitting a solo home run off Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jeff Samardzija in the fourth inning Wednesday in Cincinnati. “I didn’t have my best stuff,” Leake said. “Sometimes you have a few games where a couple of pitches beat you. I was able to make pitches and it worked out.” Leake appeared to be the odd man out when spring training started. The Reds were grooming Aroldis Chapman for a job in the starting rotation. They changed their minds and Leake has prospered. “It’s an accomplishment,” said Leake of his 13 wins. “You can’t plan how your season is going to go. The winds have blown me in the right direction.” Chicago has been shut out 13 times, three fewer than last season. The Reds used small ball in the second for a 2-0 lead. Jay Bruce led off with a single and went to third on Todd Frazier’s softly lined single down the left field line. Both players scored on RBI groundouts to second by Xavier Paul and Zack Cozart, who went 0-for-4 and ended his career-high hitting streak at 15 games. Mesoraco added his ninth homer in the fourth, a one-out solo shot off a pitch by Jeff Samardzija that sailed 429 feet into the first row of the second

deck in left field. The homer was Mesoraco’s first in 25 games since he hit two against St. Louis on Aug. 3. The Reds broke it open in the sixth on Hannahan’s 402-foot, three-run homer into the right field seats off of Samardzija, Hannahan’s first since last July 20 for Cleveland against Baltimore. Samardzija (8-12) gave up eight hits, six runs and three walks with five strikeouts. He threw 114 pitches, including a wild pitch. “I didn’t think he threw the ball bad until the three-run homer,” Chicago manager Dale Sveum said. “They had some bloopers and the other homer (by Mesoraco). Other than that, they didn’t have a lot of hard hit balls.” Notes: Reds RHP Johnny Cueto threw 60 pitches to live batters Wednesday in the second simulated game of his comeback from a strained muscle below his right shoulder. Neither Cueto, on the disabled list since June 29, nor manager Dusty Baker knew immediately after the session what his next step will be. Cueto says he feels “good and “ready.”
in Week 2. The Blackhawks must be up to stop the Bucc’ rushing attack if they hope to have any chance in this one. Last week, senior running back A.J. Ouellette gashed the Arcanum ‘D’ for 338 yards, setting a new Covington High School record. The Blackhawks enter the game giving up 35.5 points per game, a number that could rise after playing the Buccs. • Ansonia (1-1, 0-1) at Miami East (2-0, 1-0) There is just a different vibe at Miami East this year … After a Week 1 comeback win over MiltonUnion and a Week 2 hammering of National Trail, the Vikings sit at 2-0 for the first time in 1994. The Vikings will look to continue their winning ways Friday when Ansonia comes to Casstown, following a 51-20 loss to TriCounty North last week. Bradford (0-2, 0-1) at Bethel (1-1, 1-0) The Bethel Bees (1-1)
got their first win last week against Mississinawa Valley. The Bees will look to improve to 2-0 in Cross County Conference play Friday night, hosting Bradford, which enters the game 0-2, 0-1 in the CCC. Last season, the Railroaders defeated the Bees 26-13 on the way to their first playoff appearance since 1982. This year, though, it could be any team’s ball game. Landmark Eagles (1-1) vs. Troy Christian (1-1) Small in numbers, but big in heart. The Troy Christian Eagles have made strides in their first two weeks back on the gridiron. After a Week 1 win, the Eagles came up just short last week against Miami Valley Christian Academy. This week’s opponent is the Landmark Eagles, which hail from Cincinnati and have a matching record of 1-1 on the season. Lehman (1-1) at London (1-1)
A 64-3 loss to Urbana in Week 1, then a 6-0 win against Greenon. Who really knows what London High School is capable of? … The Lehman Cavaliers will travel to Madison County find out. London (Division IV) is a much bigger school than Lehman (Division VII) in terms of size. But one thing is certain: The Cavaliers were big-time battle tested in Week’s 1 and 2 against Midwest Athletic Conference teams Anna and Minster. Lehman will look to carry the momentum from a 33-18 victory over Minster into this week’s matchup. Lima Senior (0-2) at Piqua (1-1) A blowout victory in Week 1, followed up by a heartbreaking 24-23 loss to Kings last week. Which Piqua team will show up this week? The Indians sit at 1-1 right now, and Lima Senior (0-2) will travel to the friendly confines of Alexander Stadium.
Troy-Xenia ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Something the Trojans could ill-afford against the Buccaneers. Xenia enters the game 1-1, fresh off a 31-13 win over Bellbrook. Xenia also returns the bulk of a team that Troy struggled to defeat 14-6 last year. “You know the quarterbacks we’ve seen the last two weeks (CJ’s Jacob Harrison and Shawnee’s Saalih Muhammad)? Xenia’s quarterback is a lot like that,” Brewer said. “He’s athletic. He’s a tall kid who can run around and can put the ball on the money. They’ve got athletes everywhere. They’ve got a good defensive line. Their two defensive tackles who gave us so many problems last year? They were sophomores last year. They are back and they are bigger, faster and stronger than they were last year. “We’ve got our hands full again this week, no doubt about it. They are an extremely athletic team.” Troy, meanwhile, will once again adjust its personnel to try and fill the holes it has on defense. Troy gave up 34 points to CJ and 31 points to Shawnee — the first time the Trojans have given up more than 30 points in back-to-back contests since it faced Centerville and Wayne in consecutive weeks in 2008. “We’re going to shuffle the deck again,” Brewer

Troy linebackers Josh Detrick (24) and Ryan Daum (52) wrap up a Springfield Shawnee ballcarrier Friday. said. “You can’t give up 30 points and expect to win football games. We’ve got to get off the field. We’ve got to tackle better. We do have an explosive offense — we’ve just got to find a way to keep it on the field and keep the opposing offense off the field.” With inside linebacker Anthony Shoop likely to miss another game with a leg injury and Troy short on depth along the defensive line, expect to see Troy move junior inside linebacker Marco Anverse to
defensive end, where he played last season. Senior Josh Detrick will move from outside linebacker to inside linebacker to fill one spot, while junior Brandon “The Crow” Lee will play the other inside linebacker spot. Junior Justice Rees, who missed the first two games with an injury, will play outside linebacker. “Justice plays like he’s trying to exorcise some demons out there,” Brewer said. “That’s what we need — a kid who plays with urgency.”
Indians losing ground
CLEVELAND (AP) — The Kansas City Royals believe they are in the American League playoff chase to stay. They might start convincing others, too. The Royals gained ground in the wild card race on Wednesday with a 6-2 win over the Cleveland Indians. Kansas City took two of three in the series between clubs that are in contention for the second wild card spot in the AL. The Royals, who entered Wednesday trailing Tampa Bay by three games, moved
a game closer to the Indians. Cleveland came in 1½ games behind the Rays. “To come in here and win a series against a tough Cleveland team was huge for us,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “Especially considering where we are at this point of the season. Losses hurt now. You’ve got to try to really keep them at a minimum if you can.” Alex Gordon homered on the game’s first pitch, and James Shields dominated after a shaky first inning for the Royals, who have won
13 of 18. “These guys have developed a lot of experience this year,” Shields said. “We’ve gone through so many ups and downs this year that we’ve been through every situation you can think of almost. These guys know what it takes. They know how to win.” The Royals had a home run, a triple and a single within the game’s first seven pitches to take a 2-0 lead. Kansas City added another run in the first inning.

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM
Tennis ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Hidenlang to three sets before falling 4-6, 6-2, 61. At first singles, Hannah Essick lost to Carley Sickinger 6-0, 6-0, and at third singles, Aki Foran lost to Jada Strickland 6-0, 6-0. “Mimaisburg is one of the top teams in the area, and I was pleased that we competed well at both doubles positions and second singles,” Troy coach Mark Goldner said.
“Shelby played a very solid match at second singles after she was moved up due to the illness of Maggie Hennessy. “Our team needs to get healthy, with Maggie Hennessy being sick and not playing this week and Noelle Culp with a cast on her left hand.” Troy (6-4) hosts West Carrollton today. Milton-Union 3, Northmont 2 WEST MILTON — The Milton-Union Bulldogs
improved to 7-5 on the season, out-toughing Northmont for a 3-2 win. At second singles, Jesica Ferguson defeated Marissa Anderson 2-6, 62, 6-0. At First doubles, Claire and Lizzie Fetters won 6-2, 6-2. At second doubles, Maggie Gooslin and Ashley Wombold won 6-1, 4-6, 6-3. At first singles, Brooke Falb lost to Akila Parker 6-1, 6-3. At third singles, Sarah Black lost to Kennedy Harden 6-2, 4-6,
6-3. “This was a very hardfought match by both teams under very uncomfortable conditions,” Milton-Union coach Sharon Paul said. “Jesica Ferguson played an outstanding match. She is a smart player, and she hustles for every shot. Even though we did not win the other two singles matches, both of our players just kept battling. “Our second doubles overcame a second-set
lull to get their point, and first doubles was steady as usual. Overall, it was a great team win, and I am very proud of them all.” Milton-Union hosts Carlisle today. Tippecanoe 4, Kenton Ridge 1 SPRINGFIELD — Tippecanoe knocked off Kenton Ridge in Central Buckeye Conference play, winning 4-1. At first singles, Hailey Winblad defeated Ashley Wallace 6-4, 4-6, 6-2. At
second singles, Taylor Sutton defeated Carlie Castiaux 7-5, 6-3. At third singles, Nefeli Supinger won 6-3, 6-7 (10), 6-3. At first doubles, Katie Gross and Kennedy Reeder defeated Olivia Zink and Kylie Reed 4-6, 6-3, 6-3. At second doubles, Jenna Collins and Miu Tanaka lost to Brittanie Huggins and Hannah Hitchcock 7-5, 7-5. Tippecanoe (7-5) hosts Greenon today.

Golf ■ CONTINUED FROM 13 shot 63. Allison Ingle led Covington with a 44, Morgan McReynolds shot 48, Kelsey McReynolds shot 61, Sadie Canan shot 63 and Addison Metz shot 66. Troy hopes to keep that positive momentum going at the Country Club, too — they host Northmont there today before facing Piqua there on Sept. 18 in a Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division matchup. Tippecanoe 167, Graham 203 VANDALIA — Tippecanoe improved to 6-0 in Central Buckeye Conference play Wednesday, routing Graham 167-203 on Cassel Hills’ back nine. Lindsey Murray shot a 33 to lead the way for the Red Devils, Ally Chitwood shot 42, Erika Brownlee shot 43, Tori Merrick shot 49, Sammie Rowland shot 51 and Chloe Woodworth shot 61. Tippecanoe faces Bellefontaine today. • Boys Springboro 147, Troy 162 SPRINGBORO — Troy coach Mark Evilsizor, despite the 147-162 loss to Springboro at Heatherwoode on Wednesday, preferred that match to some of the others this season that finished with a result more in his Trojans’ favor. “We get more out of playing matches against teams like this at courses like this than we do from some of the wins we’ve had this year,” Evilsizor said. “They’re one of the
best teams in the Greater Western Ohio Conference for a reason.” And Troy (7-3) got to see first-hand what it takes to compete with the Panthers. It just couldn’t get as many putts to fall. “The big difference today was that this is their home course, and they made a lot more putts than we did,” Evilsizor said. “We knew we’d have to get four guys under 40 just to keep this one close. But they had an even-par 35 — and that kid had a hole-in-one, two 37s, two 38s and a 43. They’re just that good.” Connor Super led Troy with a 2-over 37, Dalton Cascaden shot 41, Kaleb Tittle and Grant Kasler each shot 42, Corey Smith shot 45 and Matt Monnin shot 48. Springboro sophomore Austin Shoonmaker had the hole-in-one on hole No. 17 and was medalist with a 35. Troy travels to Shelby Oaks today to face Sidney in a key GWOC North matchup. Bellbrook 158, Milton-Union 164 WEST MILTON — The Milton-Union Bulldogs lost for only the second time this season, falling 158-164 to Bellbrook Wednesday at Homestead. Josh Martin was tied for medalist honors on the day with a 37. Joey Smedley was next with a 40, Mitch Gooslin shot 42, Zach Glodrey and Jake Stefanko shot 45 and Jack Blevins shot 48. Milton-Union (8-2) hosts Tri-County North Monday.
■ CONTINUED FROM 13 Troy (3-3-1, 1-0) for multiple reasons: not only did it end a two-game losing streak and get the Trojans started off properly in division play, it also gives them some momentum they can ride into harder games — like Saturday’s contest against Northmont. “I’ve said all year we’ve got the players to get the job done,” Rasey said. “We just need to get to the point where we’re clicking on all cylinders so we can have that kind of output against better teams, too. And Northmont’s going to be a good test.” It took the Trojans a while to find the mark Wednesday still, despite numerous chances. Troy fired more than 20 shots at the Greenville goal in the first half, but many sailed wide or high. In fact, the Trojans’ first goal came off the foot of a Greenville player. Sierra Besecker took a pass from Maggie Caughell in front of the Wave goal, and a defender came running in to punch the ball away — only she did so right into her own goal for the game’s first score with 13:38 to go in the half. But with 7:43 until the break, Kina Sekito — who finished with a hat trick — showed that Troy could score without the help, ripping a shot from 25 yards out in for a 2-0 lead. Even with a flurry of shots right before halftime, though, that’s where the score stayed. Besecker hammered the ball off the crossbar but got it right back, only to have her follow-up shot blocked by a defender — and right onto a wideopen Gracie Huffman’s foot. Greenville’s goalie was barely able to get her hands up in time to

They (Greenville) didn’t cross midfield against us. We just weren’t finishing our chances,” Rasey said. “With this being a league game, it would have been nice to have gotten a couple of those in and cement this one away in the first half.” Right after play started in the second half, though, that wasn’t an issue any longer. At the 38:23 mark, Sekito tried to send a cross in front of the Greenville goal, only to have it deflect off of a defender and go in. Less than a minute later, though, she launched a ball from 30 yards away and into the upper-90 where the goalie couldn’t possibly reach it to make it 4-0. Besecker then blasted a 30-yarder of her own in, and at the 35:24 mark, Sekito hit another one that deflected off a defender and in to make it a 6-0 game. Greenville scored on its only shot of the game to make it 6-1, but Troy answered right back with a goal from Morgan Brown. Sekito cashed in a

the season, 24 have come in two victories — against Greenville (0-9, 0-1) on Wednesday and against Springfield (0-4) on Aug. 27. The Trojans face 3-1-1 Northmont at 11:30 a.m. Saturday at Troy Memorial Stadium.
Miller not cleared for takeoff vs. Cal
COLUMBUS (AP) — With less than 72 hours before No. 4 Ohio State plays at California, the status of injured Buckeyes quarterback Braxton Miller is still uncertain. Coach Urban Meyer said Miller got in a little work at Wednesday’s practice but then had another session of rehab for his injured left knee. “We’ll know more tomorrow,” Meyer said. “He’s going on the trip and tomorrow’s going to be the day we’ll find out how much he’ll play.” Miller, who sustained a sprained ligament in his left knee early in the Buckeyes’ 42-7 win over San Diego State last weekend, has been receiving treatment PHOTO COURTESY LEE WOOLERY/SPEEDSHOT PHOTO and throwing the ball this Ohio State backup quarterback Kenny Guiton breaks week. Meyer said Tuesday free on a long touchdown run Saturday against San he was “fairly optimistic” Diego State at Ohio Stadium. that the junior might play.
“I feel about the same (today),” Meyer said. Miller went through light, non-contact practices with the team Tuesday and Wednesday. He wore a big brace on the knee. “It’s not as sore, it’s an MCL so it’s a little unstable,” Meyer said. “He’s got to get used to that brace.” Meyer, who said it was a concern that he didn’t know Miller’s status this late in the week, didn’t disregard that he might start Kenny Guiton and would then insert Miller if possible. The Buckeyes (2-0) will be playing their first road game against the Bears (11). Safety Christian Bryant said Miller looked OK in a limited appearance in practice. ”Braxton looks good,” he said. “I saw him throw the ball a few times. But I think
he’s just focusing on getting back so he can be ready.” Miller has a history of injuries, leading some fans calling into talk shows or posting on message boards to question his durability. He missed portions of his high school career to injury and has had to leave six games with injuries at Ohio State. He left with a sprained ankle in 2011 at Nebraska with the Buckeyes ahead 27-6 but they ended up losing 34-27. After taking hits, he missed portions of the Michigan State and Indiana games a year ago, but returned each time as the Buckeyes won. In the season-opening 40-20 win over Buffalo, he left the game twice with leg cramps but returned each time, replaced by backup Kenny Guiton. Guiton threw for two
touchdowns and ran for another in relief of Miller in last Saturday’s win over San Diego State. Guiton endeared himself to Ohio State fans a year ago in the eighth game when he came in after Miller was hit hard on a third-quarter tackle against Purdue. “He’s a distributor,” Meyer said Wednesday of Guiton. “He’s a manager and he’s looked pretty good.” Guiton faltered until leading a dramatic 61-yard touchdown drive in the last minute, then completing a two-point conversion pass to force overtime. The Buckeyes ended up winning that game 29-22 and went on to a 12-0 season. Meyer said earlier this week that he has no lingering doubts about whether Miller can play through minor pain.
