Pink paper to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month David Fong

Executive Editor dfong@civitasmedia.com

Troy hoping for a ‘pink-out’ at game

TROY — According to the American Cancer Society, the chance of a woman having invasive breast cancer at some point in her life is about 1 in 8. The chance of dying from breast cancer are about 1 in 36. About 226,870 new cases of invasive breast cancer in women have been diagnosed this year. About 39,510 women have died from breast cancer this year.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, other than skin cancer. It is the second leading cause of cancer death in

women, after lung cancer.

This is always hope, however.

The American Cancer Society says that because of better early detection methods and better forms of treatment, death rates as a result of breast cancer have been steadily on the decline.

Currently, there are more than 2.9 million breast cancer survivors in the United States of America.

This issue of the Troy Daily News — printed on all pink paper — is meant to honor all of those who have battled, are battling and will battle breast cancer. The color pink has become synonymous with breast cancer awareness. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness

In an election story in a previous edition of the Troy Daily News, Staunton Township Trustee candidate Levi Long was misidentified as “Levi Young.” Long is running for re-election. The Troy Daily News apologizes for the error.

Month.

“All of us have been touched in some way by breast cancer — either directly or indirectly through a friend or loved one,” Troy Daily News executive editor David Fong said.

“This month, we wanted to do something to highlight the fight against this dreaded disease.

Not only are we printing this edition on pink paper, we also are bringing our readers several stories regarding the fight against breast cancer and cancer in general. We hope all of our readers keep those who are battling cancer in their thoughts and prayers not only in the month of October, but for the entire year.”

Ex-city cop charged with theft in office, pleads not guilty

TROY — Producing outstanding football players is one thing — producing outstanding young men is quite another.

Which is why Troy football coach Scot Brewer jumped at the chance to participate in the Spielman Gridiron Classic this Friday against the Butler Aviators at Troy Memorial Stadium.

The event will raise both money and awareness to fight breast cancer.

At halftime, the all local cancer survivors will be honored. After the game, a “Champions” trophy will be awarded to the winnning team and a “Most Valuable Player” will be honored.

The former First Church of Christian Scientists building, located on Main Street in Troy, currently is in the middle of a rezoning debate between a Troy realtor and neighborhood residents.

A ‘church’ divided Sides differ on future of former church building

Melanie Yingst

Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

TROY —Troy City Council held its first public hearing regarding two rezoning issues at Monday’s city council meeting and had opposition from Westbrook residents regarding the rezoning of the former First Church of Christian Scientists building, located at 1509 W. Main St. The Realtor with the listing spoke for the rezoning of the property.

Sandy Webb, ReMax Realtor, said the property listing has had several interested parties over the five years the church has been vacant and has petitioned for the zoning to be changed from Office Residential District to Office Commercial District.

The Troy Planning Commission has not recommended for the ordinance for the rezoning.

By a vote of 6-1, the Troy Planning Commission voted not to recommend the rezoning of lots 350 -3502-3503, located at 1509 West Main Street from the current zoning of OR-1, OfficeResidential District, to OC-1, Office-Commercial District. The one vote supporting the rezoning was made by Al Kappers.

Webb said the price of the property was originally listed for $299,000 and has since dropped down to $169,000. Webb said interested buyers have included everything from a small diner to the current interested buyer wanting to buy the property and clear the lot for a new business.

Webb said she has tried to sell the property as a church, but many churches are unable to obtain the loans to keep the building as is over the years.

“I can’t find a church with financing,” Webb said at the meeting. “I now have a buyer who is very interested that could benefit the neighborhood.”

Webb said if the zoning could be changed, the building would no longer sit empty, as it has for the last five years.

Two residents spoke against the rezoning ordinance.

Nicole Bevington, a resident of Westbrook whose property borders the former church, said the rezoning would bring more traffic and noise to the neighborhood.

Bevington also provided the council a list of approximately 40 residents against the rezoning issue.

The following information is the difference between Office Commercial District zoning and Office Residential District zoning.

Office Commercial District uses not permitted in the OR-1 Zoning District — Apparel stores-retail sales; business, civic, fraternal association and labor meeting rooms; business and technical schools; drug stores and retail sales; food stores and retail sales; foster family home; jewelry and retail sales; private clubs; retail and service uses; veterinary office with no boarding.

Office Residential District uses not permitted in the OC-1 Zoning District — Adult Group Home; Churches, chapels, temples, synagogues; Foster Family Home; Group Home; Halfway House; Intermediate Care Home; Multiple-family dwelling; Rooming houses; Single family dwellings; Social Care Home and two-family dwellings.

TROY — A former Troy Police Department officer accused of stealing thousands of dollars from a drug program he presented to Troy schools faced a judge in common pleas court Monday during his arraignment.

Kirt E. Wright, 41, of Troy, entered a not guilty plea Monday to a lone charge of theft in office, a felony, after a grand jury indicted the excop last month following an investigation by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations.

A third-degree felony, Wright faces up to five years in prison if convicted as charged.

Wright, who resigned Wright from the department July 23, remains out of jail on a recognizance bond.

Wright is accused of stealing money from the department’s D.A.R.E. program between early 2008 up through May of this year.

More than $13,000 was misused by Wright on a credit card used for the drug program, according to court records and the county prosecutor’s office.

Wright served as a Troy police officer since 1999 and prior to that served as a deputy with the Miami County Sheriff’s Office from 1991 to 1999.

A pretrial conference is scheduled for Oct. 15 at 1:15 p.m.

Troy-Hayner Cultural Center continuing film series Colin Foster

Staff Writer colinfoster@civitasmedia.com

TROY — Hayner Cultural Center is driven by the arts.

And the way the committee of the Troy-Hayner Cultural Center’s Film Series sees it — there is no better way to display all types of art than with a film.

“The way the committee sees film is that it’s the ultimate art form,” Troy-Hayner Cultural Center Director Linda Lee Jolly said. “A film includes all of it; visual arts, performing arts — it encompasses the direction, the acting, the sets, the writing of the scripts, it’s just kind of an art form that brings it all together to create a picture or a slice of life. When the committee chooses the films, they are looking at what it is about this film that has artistic value, what it is that makes it a classic and enduring.”

“This affects all of Westbrook — it affects everybody,” Bevington said.

Westbrook resident Deb Char said the rezoning would eliminate the buffer with a commercial zoning designation.

“It would eliminate any buffer,” Char said. “The lot size of the property is under an acre and heavy traffic would be a result.”

The rezoning issue of the 1509 W. Main St. property will go to the members of the law and ordinance committee before its third reading on Oct. 15 at 6 p.m. in council chambers.

The member of the law and ordinance committee are: John Schweser, chairman, Tom Kendall and Lynne Snee.

Council recommended the rezoing issue of 15 N. Kings Chapel Drive, from B-2 General Business District to M-2 Light Industrial District. Brian Ault spoke for the rezoning to move forward. Ault represented the Troy West Limited group to build a full service auto repair facility on the

Film From page 1 The eighth year of the film series Let’s Go to the Movies at Hayner kicks off Friday with the showing of the black comedy “Arsenic and Old Lace” at 7:30 p.m. The movie stars Cary Grant and is directed by Frank Capra. It was the pick of committee member Sara Duff.

The series usually includes five to six showings a year.

This time around, though, all the film choices were made by the committee members.

“This year they are kind of committee choice films, and I think all the committee members have really picked films that have spoke to them for some reason or on some different level,” Jolly said.

Jolly said she is also excited to present her film choice — “The Vanishing Virginian” — on April 11, which is the last showing scheduled. She said it will serve as tribute to Hayner Cultural Center on its 100th birthday. Mrs. Hayner’s granddaughter actually has supporting role in the film.

Friday night will start out with an introduction to the film. After viewing the film, a short discussion will follow.

“The introduction is to help viewers engage maybe on a different level,” Jolly said.

There will be cafe style seating with popcorn, soda, and coffee provided by Boston Stoker. All food and beverages are free. The film series is intended for adult viewership and may not be appropriate for kids under 13. Hayner will have one film showing a month through April, but will exclude the month of December.

The dates for upcoming films in the series are as follows: Nov. 8, Jan. 10, Feb. 7, March 14 and Apr. 11. For a list of the films to be shown, stop by Hayner, located at 301 W. Main St. in Troy. For more information, call (937) 3390457 or visit www.troyhayner. org.

Council will meet at city hall beginning at 7 p.m. to consider to rezone two properties. The ordinance was recommended by Troy Planning Commission Council adopted five resolutions on Monday.

The following resolutions were considered “Emergency” resolutions and both were passed by city council unanimously: The first reading and emergency resolution was the Downtown Building Repair Loan to Markwater LLC (Dave Murray) for $22,000.

(R-37-2013). The resolution passed by all members of council. The loan is for roof repair of the building. The applicant will provide company equity of $2,847.25 to cover the balance of the roofing contract and pay the $660 in closing points; 10 year repayment period; and 3 percent simple interest.

The first reading and emergency resolution was approved for the Ohio

Public Works Commission application for McKaig Road Improvement Phase II.(R-38-2013).

The project area is 1370 lineal feet of McKaig Road from Monroe Street to the railroad at Madison Street, and includes roadway construction, utilities, sidewalk, curb and gutter.

While this project has not yet been designed, it is currently estimated at $939,000, with the OPWC grant not to exceed $450,000. Funding would not be available until after July 1, 2015.

The final three resolutions were also adopted and passed by all members of the city council unanimously: First reading for a bid for a restroom project at Treasure Island Park not to exceed $85,000. The project will be reimbursed by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources upon completion.The project has been designed in house and ODNR has approved the design. (R-39-2013) First reading to bid for sanitary sewer grouting project for $70,000.

(R-40-2013) The work will be done in the Sherwood neighborhood.

The project includes approximately 14,000 lineal feet of sewer lines can be cleaned, televised, and leaking line joints can be grouted as they are located. This work would further reduce inflow and infiltration into the sanitary sewer system, particularly the flow going into the Kirk Lane Lift Station.

First reading to purchase fuel during fiscal year 2014 was approved.

(R-41-2013) The following ordinances were approved by city council members unanimously: To accept the deed from ODOT at Adams Street. The ordinance was to return the Adams Street overpass from ODOT to the city of Troy as a clerical error. (O-20-13) To levy assessments Phase VII of sidewalk improvement program (O-21-13). The sidewalk improvement program will complete the North Staunton Road section.

Tipp City adds to Capital Improvement Plan Cecilia Fox

Record Herald Writer ceciliaafox@gmail.com

TIPP CITY- After learning last month that the capital improvement levy passed in 2011 will generate more funds than originally predicted, several new projects and purchases have been added to the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) budget.

City officials announced last month that that the 2011 income tax levy may generate more funds for capital improvement projects than previously projected. Council and city staff suggested new CIP projects that were discussed at the capital improvement budget workshop on Sept. 23.

During Monday night’s study session, Council heard a follow-up to their September CIP discussion and approved the addition of several items to the budget.

Four of these are storm sewer projects that would alleviate the city’s flooding problems and move storm sewers off of private property and on to property owned by the city. An additional $300,000 for street resurfacing was also added to the budget.

When the 10-year CIP was drafted in 2010, more conservative income tax revenue estimates were used.

The original CIP projected a 2 percent annu-

al increase, but actual income tax collections have been greater: 3.6 percent in 2010, 4 percent in 2011, and 10.11 percent in 2012.

While the original plan predicted a 2020 fund balance of $1.7 million, current estimates put that number at well over $3.8 million and $5.6 million in 2021.

City Manager Jon Crusey outlined the new projects for council. In 2014, a dedicated right turn lane from northbound County Road 25A onto Donn Davis Way will be added at an estimated cost of $42,230.

This addition should help eliminate problems caused by traffic to the high school.

In 2016, storm sewers between South, S. Sixth, and S. Fifth Streets would be rerouted to an existing storm sewer on Broadway Avenue to help alleviate flooding issues at an estimated $145,333 cost. Storm sewers on W. Dow Street would also be rerouted and the sewers slip-lined for $136,591.

Public restrooms will be added downtown for about $92,882. And an extra $100,000 was apportioned for the 2016 street resurfacing project In 2017, the first phase Westedge storm sewer project to route storm water on Tippecanoe and Miles to the Amokee Ditch will begin. The estimated cost of this project is $334,276.

Another $100,000 for street resurfacing in 2017 was added.

In 2018, phase two of the Westedge storm sewer project will be completed at a cost of $290,978. Additional $100,000 in street resurfacing funds was also added for this year.

And in 2019, the

Interstate 75 ditch maintenance along east side of interstate behind N. Garder Dr. and Bellaire Dr. will be taken care of. This project, about 3,000 feet of ditch maintenance, is estimated to cost about $261,000.

Purchases to be added to the CIP budget include a new wood chipper for the electric department and new portable radios for the EMS department.

The new chipper would cost about $45,000 and the current chipper would be kept as a back-up. According to Utilities Director Christy Butera, the machine is used at least once a week. Renting one from Vandalia Rentals would cost $350 per day and $3,850 per month, Crusey said.

New EMS radios were added to the CIP budget for replacement in 2014.

These eight radios are supposed to be replaced every six years, while the old radios are passed down to city staff. The new CIP budget now includes $14,000 for new radios in 2014 and $15,000 to replace those radios in 2020.

After next year, all of the city’s major CIP projects will be complete and, according to Crusey, all projects after 2014 will be fully paid for by the CIP fund.

Past CIP projects include the purchase of a new ladder truck, the reconstruction of Franklin Street, the construction of Abbott Park Way, which was not originally planned, and various street resurfacing projects. Major current projects include the new Fire/EMS station, the downtown Main Street reconstruction and utilities project, as well as the reconstruction of parts of Dow Street and

South Third Street.

Acquatic Center figures Council also reviewed the aquatic center’s 2013 season-end reports and learned that this season’s revenue and attendance were at all time lows. The center’s poor performance this season can largely be blamed on bad weather, Crusey explained. This season the pool was closed an equivalent of 16 days due to cool and rainy weather. Not quite 28,000 people visited the aquatic center this season compared to 2012 39,363 and 2005’s high of 61,578.

Minus a transfer of $75,000 from the general fund and a credit of $22,225 from Dayton Pool Management for all the hours the pool was closed this season, this season’s aquatic center revenue totaled $285,412. The season’s expenses were $377,489.

Next year the aquatic center is expected to be open 77 days instead of 84. The city has the option to extend Dayton Pool Management’s contract another year for $305,710, or to check out other pool management companies in the area.

In other business, Council approved a resolution declaring brass drinking fountain fixtures to be surplus property. A change in federal regulations regarding the allowable lead content in drinking water fixtures has rendered some of the water department’s brass fittings unusable. These items will be disposed of by public sale, auction, trade-in, or by sale or donation to another political subdivision.

Dental insurance Steve Huffman, a resident of Tipp City, returned Monday night to ask Council why they have not acted on his claims that they have been receiving benefits with no legal basis.

Huffman, who also introduced a petition to stop council health insurance earlier this summer, said last month that the council has received dental insur-

ance without any ordinance authorizing it.

Council voted in July to eliminate members’ health insurance and raise their salary from $1,000 to $5,000 annually beginning in 2016.

The ordinance eliminating health insurance also eliminates dental.

According to Huffman, the original ordinance granting health insurance to members of council never mentioned dental insurance, but they have had the option to receive it anyway. He contended that members of council have been receiving these benefits with no legal basis and should repay the city.

Huffman suggested that the matter be reviewed Ohio Auditor of State David Yost, who recently ruled that Butler Township Trustees repay four years of pension benefits that were provided without proper authorization.

In an email sent to council before Monday night’s meeting, City Law Director David Caldwell offered his opinion on the issue.

According to Caldwell, city staff reviewed historical documents and interviewed former city employees and learned that medical and dental insurance were listed as one deduction in some employee records from the mid-1990s.

However, Caldwell explained, no other documents were discovered that whether city council intended to include dental coverage when it passed legislation granting itself medical coverage.

“It is my legal opinion that council members past and present believed in good faith that they were receiving dental insurance along with medical insurance in lieu of asking for higher salaries,” Caldwell wrote.

But in the absence of an ordinance explicitly granting dental insurance, Caldwell said that receiving this benefit is not “under the color of the law.”

“In conclusion, absent further information, council may have to consider repayment of the dental benefit received,” Caldwell said.

Huffman asked several council members if, in light of the law director’s opinion, they would stop taking dental insurance. Councilwoman Katelyn Berbach said that she made up her mind to stop receiving dental insurance after reading the memo from Caldwell.

Mayor Dee Gillis said that she would need more information about the issue before making that decision.

UVMC to Provide Free Breast Health Awareness Program in October For the Troy Daily News

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, designed to help educate women about their risk of developing the disease and the importance of detecting it in its earliest stages.

As part of the month’s activities, UVMC will host free counseling about genetic testing for cancer Oct. 17 from 2 to 3 p.m. in the John J. Dugan Infusion Center at the UVMC Cancer Care Center.

Sarah Jones, Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist, will answer questions in personalized sessions.

Breast cancer claims more than 40,000 lives per year in our country and is second only to lung cancer in the number of cancer deaths in women.

While it is known that breast cancer results from abnormal growth of cells in breast tissue, it is not known what causes this abnormal growth. Researchers are focused on the role of heredity, lifestyle and diet in the development of all forms of cancer.

Many of the estimated 232,340 American women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year have no obvious risk factors. However, there are certain factors that increase the risk factors. The most important risk factors for breast cancer are age and a family history of breast cancer.

The majority of breast cancers occur in women over 50 years of age. In addition, your risk is increased if you:

-Have a strong history of

breast cancer -Have never had children -Had your first child after age 30 -Began menstruating before age 12 -Began menopause after age 55 -Eat a diet high in fat Breast cancer, even in very early stages, can be easily identified. You can monitor your own health by following this three-step program: Step 1: Schedule regular mammograms. A mammogram is a special breast x-ray that can reveal a small breast cancer up to two years before it can be felt. This important test is extremely safe, as modern mammography uses very low amounts of radiation.

Women 40 or older should schedule regular yearly mammograms.

Step 2: Examine your breasts. Examine your breasts monthly, several days after your menstrual period, or on the same day every month after menopause. Your physician can show you how to do this. If you find a lump, don’t be alarmed. Breast lumps are common, and more than 80 percent are not cancerous. You should consult your physician, however, for an expert opinion about a lump.

Step 3: See your physician regularly. Self-examination, although important, is not enough. Between 20 and 40 years old, your breasts should be examined by your physician at least once every three years. If you are over 40, you should be examined every year.

The diagnosis of breast

cancer does not automatically mean removal of the breast.

Today breast cancer can be caught at an earlier stage than ever before, and treated successfully. A cancerous lump can be detected by mammography or physical examination before it becomes life-threatening. Surgical options for early breast cancer include limited breast surgery (lumpectomy) and breast reconstruction.

Additional treatment may include radiation therapy, hormonal therapy or chemotherapy.

No single treatment is ideal for all patients because not all patients are alike. The recommendation for the most appropriate treatment depends upon a number of factors, including age, overall health, and type and extent of cancer.

Today, women have choices in the treatment of breast cancer. Your physician can review these options with you and discuss all your questions before a decision is made.

If you remember only one thing about breast cancer it should be this: Your best protection is early detection.

Early detection provides the best opportunity to treat breast cancer successfully. For further information, feel free to contact the UVMC Cancer Care Center at (937) 4404820.

Question: Who is to blame for the government shutdown, Democrats, Republicans or both?

Watch for final poll results in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News.

Watch for a new poll question in Sunday’s Miami Valley Sunday News

PERSPECTIVE

TROY DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL

Law enforcement agencies deserve our support No one is above the law — even those who are charged with upholding it.

This issue has come to light recently as two former Miami County law enforcement officials — one a former Troy Police Department officer and one a former Miami County Sheriff’s Department deputy — have been charged with crimes, both of which occurred while still employed by their respective law enforcement agencies.

We cannot emphasize strongly enough that neither has yet been convicted in a court of law and both are innocent until proven guilty. While that is all well and good in the Miami County Courts system, however, we also understand that they both also will be tried in the court of public opinion.

People — most notably tax payers — have the right to form their own opinions about each respective case. Many probably already have.

We at the Troy Daily News, however, hope those who are forming those individual opinions will not let the alleged — again, we emphasize alleged — actions of a few taint their perception of each department as a whole.

In the annual Troy Daily News Readers’ Poll, we ask residents of Miami County to vote on what they like most about living in the area. One of the top vote-getters in that category is, without fail, the safety and security that comes with living in Miami County.

While crime certainly takes place here, the rates are far lower than one would find in other areas of the state, particularly metropolitan areas.

For the most part, Miami County remains a relatively safe place to live.

And who is responsible for that?

The hard-working men and women of agencies such as the Troy Police Department and Miami County Sheriff ’s Department. Both of those law enforcement agencies — along

with all the rest throughout the county — are filled with good, honest people who go into work every day knowing they could potentially have to put their lives on the line to keep the rest of us safe and secure.

Often it is a thankless job our law enforcement officials undertake each and every day. It’s an often difficult task they are willing to understake. They are not there to bully anyone, put a damper on anyone’s fun or act is if the law does not apply to them. They are there to make sure laws are upheld and that all of us can go to sleep every night feeling secure that the streets we travel throughout Miami County are safe.

There are hundreds of men and women employed by law enforcement agencies throughout Miami County from Tipp City to Piqua and all points in between. They deserve our respect and admiration for what they do.

Recently, one of the biggest events ever to roll through the area — the Gentlemen of the Road Stopover Tour — took place. The streets were flooded with tens of thousands of participants. It was an event unlike any seen before. With crowds that size, one would normally expect a rise in crime and chaos. That simply was not the case, however, as only a handful of minor incidents were reported over the course of the weekend.

Who do we have to thank for that? The men and women of the local law enforcement agencies who were able to maintain a strong presence throughout the weekend thanks to months of planning and preparation.

Indeed, the two former law enforcement officials have had very serious charges brought against them. As their cases wind through the court system, we have no doubts people will judge them however they see fit.

We can only hope, however, that those opinions will remain on the individuals involved in the alleged incidents and not on their former colleagues.

The Washington Redskins have a problem. The football team’s nickname is offensive to members of an easily aggrieved group that is determined to make pointless gestures toward righting historic wrongs through a grim lack of proportion.

In other words, its nickname is offensive to American liberals.

The epicenter of the anti-Redskins resistance is editors of liberal websites and magazines like Slate and Mother Jones who have decided to banish the word from their football coverage, such as it is. Needless to say, if you get your gridiron news from Mother Jones, you probably care more about the team’s labor practices and its carbon footprint than the performance of its positional units on any given Sunday. President Barack Obama validated the offense-taking when he said in a recent interview that if he were owner of the team, he would consider changing the nickname, displaying, as usual, an officious inability to leave any presidential opinion unexpressed. The roots of the Redskins go back to 1930s Boston. The team was known as the Braves when it played at Braves

LETTERS What’s wrong with America?

To the Editor: President Obama, the House, Senate all of this country’s states should look closely at their drug policies!

They are spending billions of tax payers’ money on the “war on drugs.”

Yes, folks, America has lost the war on drugs. The federal and state governments are spending this money for what?

The money wasted could’ve been spent on terrorism, finance, the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and now Syria? Boy, folks, talk about pork barrel spending. Geesh!

Look, if they legalized all drugs, tax them like they do cigarettes, beer, gas, etc., the revenue alone would free the courts, fix the infrastructure, electronic grids, hospitals and bridges and give better equipment to police and firefighters. Now our country is in default! A police person in every classroom to protect our children. A cure for HIV. Breast and other cancers. Space

exploration.

Just think on this! No more drug dealers on Any Street USA to run down the values of property. Legalize it and the crime rate would drop. There would be less robberies and drive-by shootings. There would be no smuggling, killings in Mexico and elsewhere; no drug cartels and less money spent on penal control.

In turn, the people they release would have to work — which would mean more money for Social Security and other programs.

Now here’s the kicker, folks: Same sex marriage and you can buy moonshine in the state store!

What?

Look closely to the benefit versus the loss of tax payer’s money.

Heck, what am I saying? Just like probation, tax payers’ money wasted, too! Fix the veterans coming home, why don’t you?!?

hem on the high seas. This would obviously be an absurd overinterpretation of an innocent team nickname and the good-natured spiritedness surrounding it.

But absurd overinterpretation is endemic to the anti-Redskins case.

Psychologist Michael Friedman, Ph.D., seriously maintains, “Not only does the use of this slur risk causing direct damage to the mental and physical health of our country’s Native American population, it also puts us all at risk for both participating in and being harmed by ongoing prejudice.” On the website Salon, English professor Steven Salaita argues that the nickname involves “the peculiar disquiet of a whiteness perceived to be in decline.”

This would be news to Redskins fans, who are evidently feeling a rather mundane disquiet over a 1-3 start and the state of star quarterback Robert Griffin III’s surgically repaired knee. Sometimes football is just football.

Corn contest proves big ears means big yields CASSTOWN — Recently, members from the Miami East-MVCTC FFA Chapter were challenged to participate in the first-ever Chapter Corn Contest. The rules of the contest were to bring in one ear of corn and earn a corn-related prize. All participants got a can of Mountain Dew because corn syrup is a major ingredient. Overall winners were presented a T-shirt with a corn-related theme presented by the FFA chapter.

A winner is chosen based on the predicted yield of the corn. The grand prize winner was determined by the highest yield estimate, based on plant population per acre. Additional prizes were given to members with the longest ear and the ear with the largest circumference.

The overall winner was Cody Reid. His corn was predicted to yield 313 bushels to the acre with a 30,000 seed population per acre. Carly Gump presented an ear of corn that is predicted to produce

300 bushels per acre with a 30,000 seed population per acre. Additionally, Weston Hodge has a predicted yield of 299 bushels per acre on a seed population of 35,000 per acre. Katie Bodenmiller was recognized for presenting the ear with the largest circumference of 8 inches. Emily Beal was recognized for offering the longest ear of corn at 10.5 inches.

All agriculture education students took time in class to figure the predicted yield of corn ears as part of their continuing education of the agriculture industry.

Participants included Colin Gump, Cody Reid, Grant Hodge, Andrew Kowalak, Allyson Supinger, Emma Linn, Katie Bodenmiller, Cody McConnaughey, Emily Beal, Weston Hodge, Carly Gump, Alyssa Westgerdes, Kira Cron, Eliza Hershberger, Hannah Davis, Colton Kowalak, Kasey Starrett, Reagan Morrett, Lorenza Savini, Levi Reid and Haleigh Maggart.

Edison honored with Award for Excellence PIQUA — Edison Community College was recently honored as one of eleven recipients of the 2013 Awards for Excellence, Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia’s highest honor for performance excellence through innovation, results and visionary leadership using the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence.

The 2013 Partnership for Excellence award recipients were honored at TPE’s Annual Quest for Success Conference held Sept. 16-17 at the Polaris Hilton in Columbus.

All 11 high-performing organizations were presented with their achievement award at a banquet Sept. 16.

“It truly was a humbling experience to be among the esteemed and excellent organizations honored by The Partnership for Excellence,” said Edison President Dr. Cris Valdez. “To be recognized with the Silver Award not only helps us to see our accomplishments but inspires us to continually strive for improvement.”

During this year’s conference, three of the four 2012 Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award recipients — MESA Products Inc., North Mississippi Health Services, and the city of Irving, Texas, presented information on their performance excellence journeys. TPE’s award recipients also shared their best practices in breakout presentations and informal discussions with conference attendees.

The Baldrige Awards are presented in four levels of achievement: bronze, silver, gold, and platinum.

The bronze level represents the pledge to excellence, the silver level represents commitment to excellence, the gold level represents achieve-

ment of excellence and the platinum level represents the Governor’s award for excellence. Of the four levels awarded, Edison was a recipient of the silver level award, demonstrating its commitment to excellence.

Mona Walters serves on the Board of Examiners for The Partnership for Excellence. The experience gained examining other applicant’s submissions for the award is beneficial and serves Edison by informing its own application.

“We have been on a quality journey since 2000 when we adopted the AQIP Pathway for accreditation through the Higher Learning Commission,” said Mona Walters, dean of institutional planning and effectiveness.

“AQIP, the Academic Quality Improvement Program is Baldrige-based and focuses the college on continuous improvement.

Applying for the state Baldrige award validates our efforts and offers a perspective on our quality journey that serves to improve and strengthen the college.”

The Partnership for Excellence (TPE) is Ohio, Indiana & West Virginia’s Baldrige-based awards program. TPE assists organizations using the internationally-recognized Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence. TPE’s prima-

ry product is a comprehensive assessment that helps organizational leaders better understand and prioritize key strengths and opportunities for improvement. While the assessment is the foundation, TPE’s main focus is on organizational learning, resource optimization and continuous improvement.

Applicants were evaluated rigorously by an independent board of examiners in seven areas defined by the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence: leadership; strategic planning; customer focus; measurement, analysis and knowledge management; workforce focus; operations focus; and results.

The evaluation process for each of the recipients included more than 1,000 hours of review and a three-day visit by a team of examiners to clarify questions and verify information in the applications.

The mission of TPE is “to cultivate performance excellence and continuous improvement among business, education, government, healthcare and non-profit organizations based in Ohio, Indiana & West Virginia.”

By providing a framework for performance excellence through the Baldrige Criteria, organizations have a greater focus on customers, process management, work

systems and organization-wide results. These organizations typically see lower costs, improved productivity and increases in both employee and customer satisfaction. The results are higher quality education, improved healthcare for residents in need, job creation to build a stronger economy and more efficient and effective government, with enormous impact on the lives of thousands.

crossed the white fog line as the vehicles approached Washington Roadd. Prior to making it to the stop sign at the intersection of Farrington and Washington, Henn crossed the center line. The officer made contact with Mr. Henn the driver and the only occupant of the vehicle. While speaking with him, the officer noticed an open 24-ounce can of Bud Light Lime in the cup holder. The officer informed Henn the reason for the stop and asked about the open beer can in the cup holder.

Henn informed the officer it was his first one. The more the officer spoke with Mr. Henn, he noticed his speech was slurred and a odor of a alcoholic beverage coming from his breath and his eyes were also bloodshot and glossy. The officer asked Henn to exit his vehicle, which he did. Henn struggled exiting his vehicle stating he had bad knees. Once outside the vehicle, the officer asked if he would be willing to perform a list of field sobriety test.

Henn stated that he would do the horizontal gaze nystagmus, but stated due to his knees he would not be able to perform the one leg stand or the walk and turn. All three of these clues were detected in both eyes. Henn was taken into custody for OVI. Before going back up to his vehicle, Henn informed the officer of a little marijuana inside his vehicle. Located on his passenger seat of his vehicle was a bag of marijuana. Henn asked the officer to give the marijuana to his girlfriend so he would not be charged. The marijuana was placed into evidence at the Miami County Sheriff’s Office. Henn was transported to station where he was read and followed along with the BMV-2255 form. Henn signed the form stating he understood the consequences of a positive test and of a refusal.

Mr. Henn agreed to take the breath test, stating “he was interested to see how high he could get.” Henn’s blood alcohol concentration was a .247 percent. He was charged with OVI, driving under suspension, marked lanes, open container and possession of

marijuana.

• WARNINGS FOR BEER POSSESSION BY UNDERAGE IN BRADFORD : Miami County Sheriff’s deputies were monitoring traffic from a stationary position at the Bradford Fire Department.

Officers observed a black truck driving northbound on Miami Ave. Bradford. As the vehicle passed the sheriff’s cruiser, officers noticed the license plate was not illuminated on the vehicle. The officer pulled out behind the vehicle and ran the registration. The return showed the vehicle registration was expired. Officers activated the emergency overhead lights and initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle. Officers made contact with the driver and informed him of the reason for the stop. The officer asked the driver and passenger of the vehicle for proof of identification. The driver, Nicholas Coffman, and the passenger, Caleb Sandifer, provided me with identification. The officer re-approached the vehicle and noticed a large object sitting on the floor between the Sandifer’s feet. The object was covered by a sweatshirt. The officer asked the individuals if they could show officers what was under the sweatshirt.

Sandifer reluctantly lifted the sweatshirt and exposed a 12 pack of Bud Light beer.

Nicholas informed me the beer was his fathers’ and it was left in the vehicle earlier in the day. Nicholas and Caleb were both under the age of 21, so officers asked them to exit the vehicle, so officers could inspect the beer. The beer was cold and appeared to had recently come from a cooler.

When officers questioned Nicholas about the temperature of the beer, he confessed the alcohol was his. Nicholas stated a friend had purchased the beer for him in Preble County. Caleb and Nicholas stated they were heading to a friends’ house in Bradford to consume the alcohol. Officers informed Nicholas and Caleb it was illegal for them to purchase and consume alcohol under the age of 21. Due to the case of beer not being opened, officers had no sus-

picion the individuals had consumed any alcohol prior to my traffic stop. Officers confiscated the beer at the scene and gave the individuals a warning for their actions.

Nicholas also received traffic warnings for having no plate lights and driving a vehicle with an expired registration.

The beer was secured in the trunk of the officer’s cruiser and was disposed.

Oct. 6 • HARLEY DUI PIQUA : At 2:24 a.m., Miami County Sheriff’s deputies on patrol initiated a traffic stop on a black 2013 Harley Davidson motorcycle for traveling at a speed of 50 mph in a 35 mph zone. When the driver of the motorcycle accelerated, the deputy turned on the front radar of the patrol car to try and lock in a speed at 50 mph.

The driver was alerted, he pulled into the Chase Bank parking lot located on E. Ash Street. Prior to the deputy approaching the motorcycle, the driver got off the bike to wait. The officer observed the driver’s body swaying. The driver then placed a cigarette in his mouth and lit it. The officer advised him the reason for the stop requested his driver license and asked where he was going in such a hurry.

The driver stated “I am going to Minster.” As he was talking to the officer, he observed the driver’s eyes were blood shot and detected a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage omitting from him. The operator of the motorcycle was identified as Todd Oda. Oda advised that he only had about two to three beers. After detecting the odor of alcohol the officer asked Oda if he would submit to series of standard field sobriety test. Oda agreed to do the test. Oda showed signs of intoxication from all three field tests. At the conclusion of the one leg stand, Oda was taken into custody for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. His motorcycle was locked and secured before he was escorted to the Miami County Sheriff’s office to be offered further testing. Once at the sheriff’s office, Oda was read the BMV 2255 form with

a witness present. Oda opted to give a breath sample. His sample revealed that his BAC level was .140 percent. His license were seized and he was given a court date. He was also given copies of all his paperwork. He was then released to a sober driver.

• POSSESSION IN PIQUA – On Oct. 6, officers noticed a vehicle traveling southeast on Riverside Drive near Downing St., Piqua. When the vehicle passed, officers noticed the tail lights were white instead of red. Officers activated my overhead lights and stopped the vehicle on Wayne Street near North Street. Officers approached the vehicle on the driver’s side. The officer identified myself and explained to the driver why they stopped him. The driver stated he forgot to put the red bulbs in, as the lenses are clear. Officers then identified the driver as Jeremiah Silvers. While talking to Silvers, officers could smell a strong odor of marijuana coming from inside the vehicle. Officers asked Silvers to step out of the vehicle, which he did. Officers explained to him that they could smell marijuana and asked him why. He said he just smoked some. Officers asked him where it was, and he said in the center console. Officers patted down Silvers and placed him in the back seat of the patrol car. Officers then searched his vehicle. While searching his vehicle officers found a plastic bag with marijuana in the center console.

No other contraband was located. Officers issued Silvers a citation for his tail lights and a misdemeanor citation for possession of marijuana.

He was then released. The marijuana was later marked and booked into the property room as evidence.

• RECKLESS OPERATION IN BRADFORD: On Oct. 6, Miami County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a reckless operation report in the area of Miami Avenue and Keller Street, located in Bradford.

While checking the area, officers noticed a suspicious looking vehicle driving slower than normal speed. The vehicle pulled into the parking lot of Patty’s IGA. Officers continued to check the area for the reckless vehicle. As officers were patrolling on E. Oakwood in the area of Miami Ave., they observed the same suspicious vehicle pull out of the IGA parking lot and approach the intersection of E. Oakwood and Miami Ave. The vehicle failed to come to a complete stop at the intersection of E. Oakwood and Miami Ave. Officers activated my emergency overhead lights and initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle. Officers made contact with the driver, later identified as Nicholas Campbell, and informed him of the reason for the stop.

Officers questioned Nicholas about where he was coming from and heading to. Nicholas stated he had just left his residence and was heading to pick up his girlfriend at the Hershey Bar. As officers were talking with Nicholas, they noticed a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from his person. Nicholas also had very slurred speech and blood shot eyes. Officers asked Nicholas if he had been drinking any alcoholic beverage recently, to which he responded “No.” Nicholas advised officers he had one beer while he was playing pool at the Hershey Bar. This story was different than the initial story Nicholas provided officers with. Officers asked Nicholas to step out of the vehicle and informed him of the suspicion he was operating a vehicle under the influence of alcoholic beverage. As Nicholas exited the vehicle, officers noticed he was unbalanced and had a hard time standing without swaying. Officers advised Nicholas he was going to run him through a Field Sobriety Tests. Nicholas was

compliant and stated that he initially lied to me and he actually had one beer and one shot of liquor. Officers witnessed several indicators of intoxication in all three field tests. Officers questioned Nicholas again about how much alcoholic beverage he had to drink. Nicholas stated he wasn’t sure, but he knows he had at least two shots and two beers. Officers placed Nicholas under arrest for OVI. Officers placed Nicholas in the back of my cruiser. Nicholas’s vehicle was legally parked on the side of the road. Officers requested mutual aid from Covington Police Department to utilize their station to conduct a breath test on Nicholas.

Officers transported the subject to the Covington Police Department and met with Sgt. DeMoss of the CPD. Once inside the station, officers provided Nicholas with a copy of the BMV 2255 form and read it out loud to him.

Nicholas stated he understood the form. Sgt. DeMoss assisted by setting up the Intoxylizer 8000 breath test machine. Nicholas refused to take the breath test once it was ready. Nicholas received a copy of his traffic citation for failing to stop at a stop sign as well as OVI. Nicholas was informed of his mandatory court date. Officers transported Nicholas back to his residence and released him.

Walters, of New Carlisle, was charged with misdemeanor attempted theft in municipal court and an attorney entered a plea of not guilty to the charge at the end of August, court documents show.

Walters was placed on paid administrative leave last year

Staff Writer wsanders@civitasmedia.com

TROY — A pretrial conference in municipal court was held on Tuesday for an exdeputy with the Miami County Sheriff’s Office who was terminated from the department last year for alleged theft.

An attorney, Jeffrey Slyman, for the former deputy, Anthony Walters, 41, plans to file a motion seeking

and following an internal investigation his employment with the sheriff’s office was terminated June 26, 2012, at the conclusion of the investigation.

According to Walters’ personnel file, the former deputy allegedly stole a digital camera from the sheriff’s office and trash bags and reams of paper from the Miami County Park District, in addition to allegations of misconduct while on duty.

Walters, who worked

for the sheriff’s office since August 1998, allegedly committed the offenses Jan. 1, 2007, according to his court complaint.

Prior to his termination Walters was assigned to patrol and provided law enforcement coverage in all of the parks in Miami County, a job detail that came with a secondary role that allowed Walters to attend hikes for adults and children and helping out with other programs offered

by the park district.

In addition, Walters provided a law enforcement presence on park bike ways and promoted bicycle safety for adults and children prior to his termination.

Walters earned $25.35 an hour when he was employed by the sheriff ’s office, according to the sheriff’s office financial figures.

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE

For Thursday, Oct. 10, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your idealism is aroused, and your interest in all things foreign is keen now. This could lead to a romantic relationship or friendship with someone from another culture.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Don't give away the farm today just because you feel sympathetic for someone. After all, you have to protect your own self-interest as well.

Beware of crocodile tears.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might feel disappointed with a close friend today. Perhaps have to ask yourself if your expectations are realistic? Furthermore, did you express these expectations? (Unexpressed expectations almost always lead to disappointment.)

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Something confusing at work might affect your earnings or what people think of you. Be clear in all your conversations. If you think something fishy is going on, it is.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Romantic partners might feel disappointed today or jealous and suspicious. You should know that things are confusing and are not necessarily what they seem. Don't jump to hasty conclusions.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) If shopping for your home, you might be extravagant today. Remember that your credit card bill has to be paid. These items aren't as free as they feel.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might spend a lot of time daydreaming today. That's OK. Do not expect the impossible from others just because you fantasize something. This is the real world.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might be tempted to buy luxurious items today. Make sure you keep your receipts in case you have later regrets.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Don't expect loved ones to live up to an impossible romantic ideal at this time. You're involved with a real person who brushes his or her teeth just like you do.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might feel relationships are ending. But perhaps what is ending is your ideal of the relationship. The real world is not a Hollywood movie.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be realistic in your expectations of friends today, especially in group situations. Or wait to see what they offer. This will help you to put things in perspective.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Be careful when dealing with authority figures today because you might be tempted to sell out in order to impress someone. Is this really worth it? What price is your integrity?

YOU BORN TODAY You are observant, insightful and articulate and often work in the arts. You're careful with money, and your judgment can be trusted. You're well-organized and an excellent problem solver. You enjoy the comforts of home and life's pleasures. Many of you work in the arts. Good news! This year might be one of the most powerful years of your life. Dream big!

Obama says talks OK — after default threat averted WASHINGTON (AP) — After weeks of gridlock, House Republicans floated broad hints Tuesday they might be willing to pass short-term legislation re-opening the government and averting a default in exchange for immediate talks with the Obama administration on reducing deficits and changing the three-year-old health care law.

At the White House a few hours later, President Barack Obama said he was “absolutely willing” to hold talks on those terms. “If reasonable Republicans want to talk about any of these things again, I’m ready to head up to the Hill and try,” he added.

The events unfolded as the stock market sank for the second day in a row. And in the latest in a string of dire global warnings, the International Monetary Fund said failure to raise America’s $16.7 trillion borrowing limit later this month could lead to a government default that might disrupt worldwide financial markets, raise interest rates and push the U.S economy back into recession.

Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew has said the deadline for Congress to act is Oct., 17, setting that as the day the government will exhaust its ability to borrow funds and will have to rely day-to-day on tax and other receipts to pay its bills.

Some Republicans have downplayed the significance of the deadline, saying that even then, the United States would be able to pay China and other holders of U.S. debt.

But Obama said they were badly misguided, warning that default would harm the economy, cause retirement accounts to shrivel and houses to lose value.

Other Republicans have made it clear in recent days they agree with the threat posed by default and are determined to prevent it.

“I suspect we can work out

President Barack Obama talks about the continuing budget battle, Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2013, in the Brady Press Room of the White House in Washington. The president called House Speaker John Boehner Tuesday, telling him once again that he won't negotiate over reopening the government or must-pass legislation to prevent a U.S. default on its obligations.

a mechanism to raise the debt ceiling while a negotiation is underway,” said Rep. Tom Cole, an Oklahoma Republican, who is close to Speaker John Boehner.

“I want to have a conversation,” Boehner told reporters.

“I’m not drawing lines in the sand. It is time for us to just sit down and resolve our differences.”

In the Senate, Majority Leader Harry Reid readied legislation to raise the debt limit by roughly $1 trillion, enough to prevent a recurrence of the current showdown until after the 2014 elections.

It was unclear whether Senate Republicans would slow progress of the bill, which was shorn of all items that many GOP lawmakers favor to reduce deficits or delay the health overhaul, which takes effect more fully on Jan. 1.

Inside the Capitol, the threat of a default overshadowed the continuing partial government

shutdown, in its eighth day with little or no talk of an immediate end. An estimated 450,000 federal workers are idled at agencies responsible for items as diverse as food inspection and national parks, although all employees are eventually expected to receive full back pay.

In the House, majority Republicans announced plans to pass legislation reopening Head Start, the pre-school program for disadvantaged children. It is the latest in a string of bills to end the shutdown in one corner of government or another in hopes of forcing Democrats to abandon their own demands for a full reopening of the federal establishment.

Republicans also announced they would vote to make sure federal workers on the job don’t miss their next regularly scheduled paycheck on Oct. 15.

In a potentially more significant political development,

a third vote was expected on legislation to create a HouseSenate working group on deficit reduction and economic growth. The 20-member panel would be empowered to recommend steps to raise the debt limit and reduce spending, including in so-called direct spending programs — a definition that appears broad enough to encompass benefit programs like Medicare and Social Security as well as the health care law that Republicans oppose.

The measure does not contain any provision to end the shutdown or raise the debt limit, although it could be amended to include them at a later date if a compromise emerges.

The shutdown began more than a week ago after Obama and Senate Democrats rejected Republican demands to defund “Obamacare,” then to delay it, and finally to force a one-year delay in the requirement for

individuals to purchase health care coverage or face a financial penalty.

It was not a course Boehner and the leadership had recommended — preferring a less confrontational approach and hoping to defer a showdown for the debt limit. Their hand was forced by a strategy advanced

by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and tea party-aligned House members determined to eradicate the health care law before it fully took root.

That portion of the strategy was doomed to failure, since money for the health care program was never cut off.

With the government partially shut down, Boehner and the GOP leadership decided to allow the closure showdown to merge with one over the debt limit.

Officials who attended a closed-door meeting of the Republicans’ House rank and file said Boehner had told lawmakers they were in the midst of a tough fight and Obama and Reid were trying to “annihilate” them.

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor said the current showdown isn’t about Obamacare or the government shutdown, but about the constitutional balance of power between the president and Congress.

Democrats ridiculed the legislation to create a working group of lawmakers, likening it to a supercommittee that failed two years ago to reach a compromise on measures to cut future spending.

At the same time, there were signs of early maneuvering for political position in case the group is established.

“They claim they want to talk about deficit reduction, but their bill immediately rules out talking about closing tax loopholes to help get our fiscal house in order,” said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md..

“It’s just more of the same from Speaker Boehner and his tea party caucus.”

Government to follow humane tactics questioning al-Libi WASHINGTON (AP) — Aboard a Navy warship, U.S. investigators are likely playing good cop/bad cop, shouting and banging their hands on a table to get suspected al-Qaida operative Abu Anas al-Libi to give up key intelligence.

That’s what they’re allowed to do, anyway. What interrogators shouldn’t be doing is putting a hood over al-Libi’s head, waterboarding him or depriving him of food.

The Obama administration would only say that al-Libi was being treated “humanely” as he is held on the USS San Antonio after he was captured in a raid in Libya over the weekend. A team of U.S. investigators from the military, intelligence agencies and the Justice Department has been sent to question him, two law enforcement officials told The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because they

weren’t authorized to discuss the ongoing operation.

“We know that al-Libi planned and helped execute plots that killed hundreds of people,” Obama told a news conference Tuesday. “We have strong evidence of that, and he will be brought to justice.”

While the U.S. once held people in secret prisons, questioned them over long periods of time, put duct tape over their eyes or forced them to strip naked, the Obama administration has swapped the secret “black sites” for battleships, acknowledged the capture and detention of a wanted terrorist and promised to stick to approved interrogation tactics like making sure the detainee has four hours of continuous sleep in a 24-hour period.

Al-Libi is being detained in military custody under the law of war, which

means he can be captured and held indefinitely as an enemy combatant.

He has long been sought for his role in the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Africa and has been under indictment since 2000.

“For the most part, the Obama administration has made positive steps, banned the most abusive techniques and prohibited torture,” said Laura Pitter, counterterrorism adviser at Human Rights Watch. But some of the 19 allowed techniques defined in the Army Field Manual can still be problematic, she said. And, Pitter said, al-Libi should be brought to federal court to face his charges.

State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said al-Libi is being treated humanely.

“The president made it clear when he came into office that some of the tactics

that had been used in previous years weren’t going to be used anymore,” Harf said. Those tactics include hooding prisoners, stripping them naked and forcing them to perform or mimic sexual acts, beating or electrocuting them or subjecting them to mock executions.

But the approved techniques are only good if there is good supervision, said Steve Kleinman, a former U.S. military senior interrogator.

“The more we keep it hidden and the more we make it look like a dark art, that’s the impression we’re going to give the world,” Kleinman said.

Some Republicans in Congress, however, say the allowed techniques don’t go far enough, and al-Libi should be sent to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite questioning.

It was unclear if or when al-Libi would be brought to the U.S. to face charges.

Questionable design blamed for health website woes WASHINGTON (AP) — A decision by the Obama administration to require that consumers create online accounts before they can browse health overhaul insurance plans appears to have led to many of the glitches that have frustrated customers, independent experts say.

Most e-commerce websites — as well as medicare.gov — are not designed to require those merely browsing to set up accounts. But it’s one of the first steps on healthcare.

gov.

Consumers trying to create their accounts multiplied the volume of online transactions that overwhelmed the website last week, causing long waits and exasperation. Many people were stopped by a balky security questions page.

The administration threw in additional computing hardware to handle the volume, and deployed software experts to patch the mechanism for creating accounts, but reports of

delays persisted Tuesday.

For President Barack Obama, glitches involving his signature legislation are an unwelcome twist. A devoted smartphone user, his political campaigns were models of high-tech efficiency. Yet the problems that have surfaced so far with healthcare.gov don’t even involve the site’s more complicated functions.

Allowing consumers to browse anonymously was one of the recommendations of Enroll UX 2014, a $3 million, 14-month project to design an optimal user experience for the insurance marketplaces. The well-known San Francisco design firm IDEO led the project and undertook extensive consumer interviews to create an easy-to-use site.

“The first thing people said to us is, ‘I need to be able to understand what my options are,’” said Sam Karp, vice president of programs at the California HealthCare Foundation.

The nonprofit helped organize and finance Enroll UX 2014, which also involved the federal government and 11 states.

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Nearly 50 years after they came up with the theory, but little more than a year since the world’s biggest atom smasher delivered the proof, Britain’s Peter Higgs and Belgian colleague Francois Englert won the Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for helping to explain how matter formed after the Big Bang.

Working independently in the 1960s, they came up with a theory for how the fundamental building blocks of the universe clumped together, gained mass and formed everything we see around us today. The theory hinged on the existence of a subatomic particle that came to be called the Higgs boson — or the “God particle.”

In one of the biggest breakthroughs in physics in decades, scientists at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, announced last year that they had finally found a Higgs boson using the $10 billion particle collider built in a 17-mile (27-kilometer) tunnel under the Swiss-French border.

In a statement issued by the University of Edinburgh, where he retired as a professor, the famously shy, 84-yearold Higgs said he hoped the prize would help people recognize “the value of blue-sky research.”

Englert, 80, said the award pointed to the importance of scientific freedom and the need for scientists to be allowed to do fundamental research that doesn’t have immediate practical applications.

“You don’t work thinking to get the Nobel Prize,” said Englert, a retired professor at the Free University of Brussels. Still, “we had the impression that we were doing something that was important, that would later on be used by other researchers.”

The Nobel selection committees are notoriously cautious, often allowing decades to elapse before honoring a scientific breakthrough, and their choices are hard to predict. But this time, the prize went to people who were widely expected to get it.

“In CERN here, most all of the physicists I know, about 95 percent, expected those two would win it. The question was if there would be a third and who it would be,” said Joe Incandela, a professor of physics at the University of California at Santa Barbara and leader of the CMS experiment, one of the two groups that discovered the Higgs particle.

Before the announcement, there had been questions over whether a group of American scientists who published a paper shortly after Higgs would also be honored, or whether any of the thousands of scientists at CERN would share in the prize, too.

But that would have been a tricky decision for the judges, since each Nobel Prize can go to only three winners.

Ulf Danielsson, a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which awards the physics prize, noted that the prize citation also honored the work done at CERN. “This is a giant discovery. It means the final building block in the so-called Standard Model for particle physics has been put in place, so it marks a milestone in the history of physics,” Danielsson said.

The two winners will share a prize worth 8 million Swedish kronor ($1.2 million). The Nobel Prizes, established by Swedish industrialist Alfred Nobel, have been given out since 1901.

TIPP CITY — Tippecanoe girls golf coach Scott Murray’s philosophy is a sound one.

“I tend to think that sports are about offense,” he said.

“All sports, really, but ours especially. You’ve got to score a certain number of points to win. This weekend, we’ve just got to go out and get our number.”

Friday and Saturday, the Red Devils will make their return to the Division II state tournament as a team for the first time since 2008 — when they were the state runners-up by a single stroke.

And he feels that this year’s Tippecanoe team has a solid chance to bring home the title.

“There’s probably three or four teams that have a chance of winning it, and we’re definitely one of them,” Murray said. “If we can stay in the 345 range — which has been our average in tournaments this season — I think we’ll be more than competitive.

If we can go out on Friday, stay in our range and play the way we’ve been playing, then we can figure out from there what we need to do on Saturday.”

Staff Reports

Particularly in the first 10 minutes.

The Trojans kept Piqua (9-7-1, 2-3) pinned in its own defensive end with pinpoint short passes and good moves around the ball. They got plenty of shots at the goal from a distance because of it, too, but couldn’t find a way to put it in.

“We moved the ball and kept

ANSONIA — A share of the league title, a school record.

Of everything that went in Miami East’s favor Tuesday night, volleyball coach John Cash liked one the most.

“It’s good to have everyone back on the floor,” he said after Tuesday’s 25-13, 25-8, 25-8 sweep at Ansonia.

“We haven’t had our entire starting lineup together since basically the beginning of the year. We were a little rusty in spots, but the girls played well.”

Senior Sam Cash made her return to the lineup needing only eight kills to break her sister Abby Cash’s career record for kills at the school.

She finished with nine, as well as two aces, two digs and 16 assists.

Ashley Current had six kills, two digs and 16 assists, Angie Mack had nine kills, two aces and six digs, Allison Morrett had seven kills, an ace and six digs, Trina Current had three kills, an aces, a block and two digs, Karson Mahaney had two kills and Anna Kiesewetter had four aces and nine digs.

“We served tough and controlled the ball well,” Cash said. “I thought Ansonia was scrappy and made us earn some points, but we still averaged 12 kills a set. When you’re getting half your points on swings, you’re doing some good things.”

The Vikings, now 16-4 on the season, clinched a share of the Cross County Conference title by moving to 11-0. After they host Lehman tonight, the Vikings will host TriVillage Thursday on Senior Night looking to win it outright.

Lebanon 3, Troy 1 LEBANON — The first time Troy played Lebanon, the Warriors won in a sweep, blowing the Trojans away in the third game.

While the final game’s score was similar Tuesday night in the semifinals of the Greater Western Ohio Conference Tournament, nothing at all about the rest of the match was.

The Trojans (14-7) won the first game and fought back from a big Game 2 deficit to force extra points, finally dropping it and running out of energy after leaving

Four in a row Troy beats Piqua, clinches share of North title

Josh Brown

Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com

PIQUA — It proved to not be as easy as Troy first thought it would be.

But a fourth consecutive league title probably shouldn’t be easy.

Needing a win to tie Butler for a fourth straight Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division championship, Troy took the lead less than six minutes into Tuesday night’s rivalry game at Piqua. The Indians held it there until halftime, but the Trojans got a quick insurance goal to start the second half and made some outstanding defensive plays late to bring home a 2-0 win — and, most importantly, the hardware.

Troy, which finishes the regular season at Miamisburg Thursday, is now 11-2-2 overall and finishes GWOC North play at 4-0-1, tied with Butler for the second straight year. In the two seasons before that, Troy, Butler and Sidney all three shared the title. And both teams’ only blemish in league play was a 1-1 draw against each other.

“It feels good,” Troy boys soccer coach Richard Phillips said. “The kids really wanted this. It would’ve been nice to have gotten it by ourselves, but still, four in a row is unprecedented. The kids played well tonight.”

Trojans to participate in Spielman Gridiron Classic David Fong

Executive Editor dfong@civitasmedia.com

Bengal ‘D’ stopping NFL’s best QBs

First Ben Roethlisberger. Then Aaron Rodgers. Now Tom Brady. The NFL’s top quarterbacks are meeting their match in Cincinnati.

The Bengals are developing a reputation for stopping the league’s top passers in their tracks.

They’ve beaten Roethlisberger’s Steelers, Rodgers’ Packers and Brady’s Patriots in their three home games this season.

See Page 16.

TROY — Producing outstanding football players is one thing — producing outstanding young men is quite another.

Which is why Troy football coach Scot Brewer jumped at the chance to participate in the Spielman Gridiron Classic this Friday against the Butler Aviators at Troy Memorial Stadium.

The event will raise both money and awareness to fight breast cancer. At halftime, the all local cancer survivors will be honored. After the game, a “Champions” trophy will be awarded to the winnning

team and a “Most Valuable Player” will be honored.

“I think this is a great thing for our kids because it raises awareness,” Brewer said. “A lot of our kids have been, or someday could be, affected by a loved one battling this disease. We are happy to do anything we can to help. We aren’t just trying to raise good football players here; we are trying to raise responsible young men whom we are proud to have be members of this community.”

It’s not just the football team that’s getting involved in the fight, however. All week, the Troy Football Parents’ Organization has been selling pink T-shirts, pink wrist

bands and pink cupcakes at the school. The T-shirts can be purchased for $10, the wrist bands for $5 and the cupcakes for $1. Students also can purchase a T-shirt and wrist band together for $13. All the money raised will be split evenly between the Troy football program and the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at the James Cancer Hospital and the Solove Research Institute.

All fans who attend Friday’s game are encouraged to wear pink in an effort to create a “pink-out.”

Chris Spielman, former Ohio State, Detroit Lions, Buffalo Bills and Cleveland Browns linebacker, and the

Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at the James Cancer Hospital and the Solove Research Institute have teamed up with Ohio Sports Classic, LLC, The Ohio Fellowship of Christian Athletes, the Ohio National Guard and La Fiesta Restaurant of Troy to present this year’s game.

“I am so excited that Troy is participating in this year’s event,” Spielman said in a press release. Spielman’s wife, Stefanie, lost her battle with breast cancer in 2009. “Last year was a huge success and we hope to make this year’s Classic even bigger by holding games all across Ohio.

Together, we will win.”

Row From page 13 possession well in the first half,” Phillips said. “Give Piqua credit, though. They defended well. When we would make runs off the ball, they were there. Still, we had opportunities to score and didn’t It just follows us everywhere.”

Until Nick Kleptz jumped on a loose ball in front and drilled it off the inner part of the far post and in to give Troy a 1-0 lead with 34:40 on the clock.

From that point on, Troy dominated control of the ball but again couldn’t find the range. The Indians almost made them pay by making a couple of late runs with direct play, but they still went into the lockerroom down 1-0.

And the Trojans got the insurance goal they desperately needed with 38:21 to play in the game as Jake Diffenderfer headed in a Jake Mastrioanni corner kick on a textbook set play to make it 2-0.

But Troy didn’t get many more offensive opportunities in the second half, and the Indians began to swing momentum their way a little. With 22 minutes to go, though, Luke Manis made a huge play to cut off a Piqua breakaway.

Then with 19 minutes to go keeper Alex Williams moved to cover up the ball practically while it was on a Piqua attacker’s foot. He made the save, but the ball got away to the open side of the goal — where

Manis was able to clear it out before anyone could get a rebound chance.

Antonio Valdez had Piqua’s best chance at a score of the night with 30 seconds to go, but Williams got his hands up in time to deflect the ball over the net, and the Indians could do nothing with the resulting corner kick.

“I was hoping we’d play good possession ball in the second half, too,” Phillips said with a chuckle. “But the kids played well tonight. They played hard, and they wanted it.”

And they got it, too.

Even if it wasn’t easy.

Troy’s J.T. Yenney passes the ball Tuesday against Piqua.

Vikings From page 13 everything on the floor and then some in a 21-25, 30-28, 25-22, 25-12 loss at Lebanon — the No. 1 seed in the upcoming sectional tournament.

“Obviously, we did well in Game 1, and in Game 2 we got down early, missed seven serves, but turned it on halfway through and started battling,” Troy coach Michelle Owen said. “If we could have come away with a win in that one, this could have been a very different night.

“Our block was all over the place. Jill (Ross) in the middle was just everywhere.

And Emily (Moser) was unreal offensively. She found ways to score all night long. We tried to battle in Game 3, but we were just gassed.”

Numbers From page 13 senior Lindsey Murray, who herself is a two-time individual state qualifier in Division I as a freshman and a sophomore. She has been the medalist at an 18-hole tournament 22 times throughout her illustrious high school career and averaged in the mid-70s this season.

And she’s got a chance to tack one more medal on, as well.

“There are probably three or four girls that are capable of winning it, and she’s one of them,” Murray said.

“Lindsey is going to have to play well for us to win, too.”

When the Devils went in 2008, it was Lindsey’s older sister Laura Murray’s sophomore season. The Devils — led by Laura Murray and Catherine Reed — shot a 680, with Poland Seminary winning with 679.

Murray has already looked at what it will take to claim first place this year, and Tippecanoe fits the pedigree perfectly.

“I would say (the difference between 2008 and this year) is kind of like ‘Moneyball.’ The scores are different, but the numbers are the same,” Murray said.

“On the second day that year, Reed went from an 83 to a 73, and that’s what gave us a shot. Poland Seminary had three girls that were legit college players that year. It was a good match between two similar-but-different teams.

“This year, I don’t think there’s really anybody like that. The teams tend to be more balanced. The team that won last year had someone in the mid-70s, someone in the mid-80s and a couple of girls in the mid-90s. That’s probably what it’ll take this year.”

Which is exactly what Tippecanoe has with Erika Brownlee, Tori Merrick, Sammie Rowland and Ally Chitwood backing up Murray.

But in the end, sports may not just be about the numbers after all. The winning part, sure, but not the “sporting” part.

“It’ll be a good experience for all of the girls,” Murray said. “Everyone is really excited. There’s been a lot of encouragement from the community, too, and it’s just been a lot of fun.”

an ace and seven digs, Ross had five kills and six digs, Ashton Riley had a kill, an assist and eight digs, Leslie Wynkoop had two kills, an ace, five digs and 39 assists and Abby Brinkman had 27 digs and an ace.

“We did some really great things tonight. The girls played hard for three games,” Owen said. “But the girls know we’ll have to beat a good team to get back to district.”

And that team will likely be Beavercreek — which the Trojans battled in the final match of the regular season but lost in three. Troy travels to Beavercreek again Thursday night in the consolation final of the GWOC Tournament.

PS 3, M-U 1 CAMDEN — Needing a win to claim a share of the Southwestern Buckeye League Buckeye Division title Tuesday, the Milton-Union Bulldogs

couldn’t come up with it, winning the first game but falling in four at champion Preble Shawnee.

“I was extremely proud of the team’s energy in that first set,” Milton-Union coach Bill Ginn said. “We have been a first-set team all year. We just couldn’t sustain it, and Preble is a good team that finds your holes.”

Kinsey Douglas had 16 kills and two blocks to lead the Bulldogs, Christine Heisey had 29 assists and Cloe Smith had three aces and nine digs.

Milton-Union faces Mississinawa Valley Saturday at Brookville High School to kick off sectional play.

Other scores: Troy Christian lost to Middletown Christian 25-19, 12-25, 25-22, 19-25, 15-5.

Tigers rally, force Game 5 DETROIT (AP) — On a night of desperation, dispute and finally, delirium, Max Scherzer and the Detroit Tigers kept their season alive by the slimmest of margins.

A tying home run, helped along by a couple of fans in right field.

A full-count pitch with the bases loaded that was low and inside but became strike three when the batter swung.

A line drive down the line with the bases still full — foul by a few feet.

During a relief outing to remember, Scherzer escaped a major jam one inning after two fans reached out to try to reel in Victor Martinez’s disputed home run, and the Tigers rallied past the Oakland Athletics 8-6 on Tuesday to force a decisive fifth game in their AL division series.

Scherzer was in line to start Game 5, but the 21-game winner came on Tuesday instead for his first relief appearance since the 2011 postseason.

He wriggled out of a bases-loaded, none-out jam in the eighth inning and got the win.

“We took our best shot and we had to because we were behind the 8-ball a little bit,” Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. “We took that shot and, hey, both teams are going to have a good pitcher going two days from now.”

After avoiding elimination, the Tigers can now send Justin Verlander to the mound Thursday night in Oakland. Verlander shut out the A’s at the Coliseum in Game 5 of the division series last year.

Oakland hasn’t announced a starter for Thursday.

It is Bartolo Colon’s turn in the postseason rotation, but rookie Sonny Gray could also come back on normal rest after a brilliant performance in Game 2.

“We haven’t decided anything yet,” manager Bob Melvin said.

Playing catch-up most of the way in Game 4, the Tigers tied it first with Jhonny Peralta’s three-run homer in the fifth and then on Martinez’s solo shot in the seventh. A couple of fans attempted to catch Martinez’s drive, and at least one of them bobbled the ball as he reached over the railing above the wall.

That prevented right fielder Josh Reddick from having any chance at a leaping grab. Reddick and center fielder Coco Crisp immediately protested, pointing up at the stands in the hope of a faninterference call. But umpires upheld the home run after a replay review.

“I have no doubt I was going to catch that ball.

When I looked at the replay, that’s what I thought,” Reddick said. “It’s totally frustrating that a fan can influence the game.”

Gary Darling, the crew chief, was umpiring in right field. He disagreed, even after the replay.

“It was clear he was not going to catch the ball, so it was clearly going to be a home run,” Darling said. “There wasn’t any other evidence on replay to turn it another way.”

Scherzer came out of the bullpen in the seventh and gave up a run, then ran into trouble again in the eighth. With the Tigers ahead 5-4, he allowed a walk and a double to start the inning. But after an intentional walk to load the bases, Leyland left his ace on the mound.

Scherzer struck out Reddick, who swung and missed at what would have been ball four on a low, inside pitch. Stephen Vogt struck out too, but pinchhitter Alberto Callaspo’s line drive to left nearly fell in before landing foul.

Callaspo eventually lined out to center.

“It was surreal,” said Scherzer, the winning pitcher in both Detroit victories this series. “Maybe it’s not the ninth inning, but that’s the stuff you dream about pitching — bases loaded, eighth inning, no outs, and I was able to do it.”

Detroit, held hitless through four innings in a game of twists and turns, added three runs in the eighth on a wild pitch and a two-run double by Omar Infante that made it 8-4.

Carson gets 100th win as Vikings’ coach Staff Reports

CASSTOWN — The Miami East Vikings girls soccer team already had the Cross County Conference title and a No. 3 seed in the sectional tournament in its pocket heading into Monday’s non-league game against Springfield Shawnee.

But there was plenty for the Vikings to play for still.

They wanted to give coach Lil Carson her 100th win with the team, and that’s exactly what they did by edging out the Braves 1-0.

Shawnee held play most of the first half but only came up with three truly dangerous chances — two of which were stopped by Kelly Rindler and one by Sage Hunley with a non-goalie save on the line.

The Vikings (11-2-2) turned momentum their way in the second half, but it wasn’t until Haley Young one-touched in an Abigael Amheiser corner kick with 3:30 to play that they finally dented the scoreboard — and that was all it took. Rindler had four saves for her eighth shutout of the year.

“Tonight was our last home game, and we started all 11 seniors,” Carson said. “So it was a very emotional night. The first half was rough because of that, but we settled down and looked much better in the second half. Defensively, the effort was great. We had a couple of pretty good stops that gave us the opportunity to stay in the game.”

The Vikings travel to Milton-Union Thursday.

Newton 3, Dixie 1 NEW LEBANON — Billy Lavy had two goals and an assist Tuesday night to lead the

Newton Indians to a 3-1 victory on the road at Dixie.

Brittany Ross also scored a goal for the Indians (7-5-3), while Erin Sweitzer and Katie Houk each added an assist.

Newton travels to Bethel Thursday.

TC 2, FM 0 PITSBURG — The Troy Christian Eagles (13-3) finished out the regular season Monday night with a 2-0 victory at Franklin Monroe.

“It was a great game,” Troy Christian coach Brian Peters said. “It was 0-0 at the half, and Franklin Monroe had us back on our heels. But Karli Riviello had some great saves to keep the score even, and we came out more energetic in the second half.”

The second-seeded Eagles will face the Northeastern-Mechanicsburg winner Oct. 17 in the second round of the sectional tournament.

Beavercreek 8, Troy 0 BEAVERCREEK — The Troy Trojans lost their third straight Monday, falling at Beavercreek 8-0.

Troy (5-7-2) hosts Piqua Wednesday on Senior Night.

• Boys Bethel 3, KR 1 BRANDT — The Bethel Bees prepared for next week’s sectional tournament by scoring what would have been a pretty big upset had it been a tournament game, knocking off Kenton Ridge 3-1 Monday.

“We’re the No. 5 seed in Division III, and they’re the No. 3 seed in Division II,” Bethel coach Bob Hamlin was. “This was a good win against some good, quality competi-

tion.”

Nick Wanamaker had two goals and an assist for Bethel, Riley Shaffer had a goal and Brandon Swank had two assists.

Bethel (10-3-2) faces Newton Thursday.

Newton 7, PS 0 PLEASANT HILL — The Newton Indians picked up their sixth shutout of the season Monday, blanking Preble Shawnee 7-0.

Kyle Demido scored two goals, while Logan Welbaum, Treyton Lavy, Rhett Gipe, Jonny White and Moustafa Simpara each had one. Levi Armentrout added two assists and Zane Clymer and Seth Courtney each had one.

FM 4, TC 1 PITSBURG — Despite a 4-1 loss at Franklin Monroe Monday to close out the regular season, the Troy Christian Eagles finished the season 10-2-3.

“It was one of the better seasons, if not the best season, in Troy Christian boys soccer history,” Troy Christian coach Ryan Zeman said.

Chris Dickens had the goal for the Eagles on a Patrick Canavan assist.

No. 7 Troy Christian hosts No. 11 Miami East Oct. 16 in the sectional tournament’s opening round.

Spr. Shawnee 3 Miami East 2 CASSTOWN — Colton Holicki scored on a penalty kick Monday night, but the Miami East Vikings fell to Springfield Shawnee 3-2.

Miami East hosts Ponitz Wednesday to end the regular season.

Bengals beating the best Cincy ‘D’ is stopping NFL’s top QBs said.

The latest notable accomplishment was stopping Brady’s streak of 52 straight games with a touchdown pass on Sunday during a 13-6 win over the Patriots. Brady had one of his worst games, and the Patriots were held without a touchdown for the first time in more than four years.

“Without a doubt, guys like that — when you play great quarterbacks, you’ve got to play great,” defensive end Wallace Gilberry said.

Even with top cornerback Leon Hall out because of a hamstring injury, they were great all the way to the stormy end.

CINCINNATI (AP) — First Ben Roethlisberger.

Then Aaron Rodgers.

Now Tom Brady. The NFL’s top quarterbacks are meeting their match in Cincinnati.

The Bengals are developing a reputation for stopping the league’s top passers in their tracks. They’ve beaten Roethlisberger’s Steelers, Rodgers’ Packers and Brady’s Patriots in their three home games this season.

The defense is the main reason Cincinnati (3-2) is tied for the AFC North lead. The offense has scored only one touchdown in the last two games, but the defense is doing the rest.

“It’s definitely fun to watch that defense,” quarterback Andy Dalton

for its final possession.

Then the heavy rain turned heavier, making it difficult for players to see. They had to keep blinking against the pelting raindrops, which was a huge help to the defense. The Patriots dropped several passes on their final possession, and Brady’s desperation pass was intercepted by Adam “Pacman” Jones inside the 5-yard line in the closing seconds.

After watching video of the final minutes on Monday, Huber noted that the weather played to Cincinnati’s favor once he got off his long punt.

“And then the skies open and they couldn’t complete a pass, so that was nice,” Huber said.

Brady finished 18 of 38 for 197 yards with an interception, four sacks and a paltry passer rating of 52.2. Roethlisberger

was 20 of 37 for 251 yards with a touchdown, an interception and two sacks. Rodgers was 26 of 43 for 244 yards with a touchdown, two interceptions and four sacks.

The Bengals knew the defense would have to play exceptionally well in order for them to get through their opening stretch of games with a winning record.

“When the schedule came out, I think I counted that we played 10 of the last 12 Super Bowl participants,” coach Marvin Lewis said Monday. “Obviously with that comes very good quarterbacks and generally experienced football teams. They’ve been used to being successful.

“It’s great for the football team. It’s a great experience we’ve had for the home fans to see these three quarterbacks in action three weeks in a row, guys that have been MVP of the Super Bowl.”

The theme has been the same in all three games: Use their deep defensive line to get pressure up the

are opposed to the name.

The controversy has peaked in the last few days.

President Barack Obama said Saturday he would consider getting rid of the name if he owned the team, and the NFL took the unprecedented step Monday of promising to meet with the Oneida Indian Nation, which is waging a national ad campaign against the league.

What gets far less attention, though, is this: There are Native American schools that call their teams Redskins. The term is used affectionately by some natives, similar to the way the N-word is used by some African-Americans.

In the only recent poll to ask native people about the subject, 90 percent of respondents did not consider the term offensive, although many question the cultural credentials of the respondents.

All of which underscores the oft-overlooked diversity within Indian Country.

No consensus among Indians on ‘Redskins’ name

of the injured injured EJ Manuel. Cincinnati should have everything in its favor against an inexperienced passer.

“You just have to be good at what you do,” Lewis said. “They’re going to generally look to play to their strength.

We’ve got to get them off schedule.”

NOTES: Lewis said Hall could return this week after missing two games. The defensive secondary has been thinned by injuries. “Leon was very close to being able to play last week, so barring any kinds of setbacks, we should have an opportunity to get a couple of guys back and be ready to go,” Lewis said.

middle, forcing the quarterback to throw quickly or run around trying to avoid a sack. Either way, the offense gets knocked out of sync.

Geno Atkins sacked Brady on his first passing attempt, setting the tone for the day.

“On the second play, we got a sack right away on Tom,” tackle Domata Peko said. “And for the majority of the game, he was on his back. Every play, he needed help coming up off the ground.

When you do that to any quarterback — when you get in their face — they’re going to make mistakes.”

The name of a certain pro football team in Washington, D.C., has inspired protests, hearings, editorials, lawsuits, letters from Congress, even a presidential nudge.

Yet behind the headlines, it’s unclear how many Native Americans think “Redskins” is a racial slur.

Perhaps this uncertainty shouldn’t matter — because the word has an undeniably racist history, or because the team says it uses the word with respect, or because in a truly decent society, some would argue, what hurts a few should be avoided by all.

But the thoughts and beliefs of native people are the basis of the debate over changing the team name.

And looking across the breadth of Indian Country — with 2 million Indians enrolled in 566 federally recognized tribes, plus another 3.2 million who tell the Census they are Indian — it’s difficult to tell how many
