TROY — With only two issues and three candidates on the docket, it was a quick evening Thursday at Troy’s “Meet the Candidates Night,” sponsored

by Leadership Troy Alunni.

The two issues discussed were the Troy City Schools levy and the Troy-Miami County Public Library levy. Three candidates — Sue Campbell, Tom Mercer and Don Pence — are running for two positions with the Concord Township Trustees.

Elections take place Nov. 5.

The following is a breakdown of what was discussed Thursday:

Troy City Schools The Troy City Schools are seeking the renewal of a fiveyear, 1.1-mills capital improvement levy.

The levy raises approximately $685,000 per year for the district. The capital improvement levy funding can only be used for maintenance and capital projects from roofs, painting, parking lot upgrades and any purchase that has a shelflife of more than five years, according to Troy City Schools’ Superintendent Eric Herman.

The levy was first put in place in 1984 and has been renewed five times since then, Herman said. The levy would not raise taxes for voters.

“Many people have commented on how clean and well-maintained our school buildings are,” Herman said Thursday. “This has not happened by accident — it has been done with peoples’ support of Troy City Schools.”

Troy-Miami County Public Library The first year the Troy-Miami County Public Library levy was on the ballot was in 2009. It is a 0.6-mill renewal for a continuous term. Since the levy is a renewal, there will be no additional taxes collected.

Andrew Wannemacher, speaking on behald of the library, said if the levy is passed, it will cost the owner of a $100,000 home $18.37 per year, or $1.53 per

month.

Wannemacher pointed out that the state has reduced the library’s budget by one-third.

The Troy-Miami County Public Library serves 43,000 students in the Troy, Bethel, Newton and Miami East school districts.

It also features 273 programs that serve 8,000 children, all of which are free to the public. In addition to the library located in Troy, the Troy-Miami County Public Library also maintains a library in Pleasant Hill, the Troy Historical Library and the bookmobile, which made 100 stops per month in 2012.

The landscape is painted with the vibrant colors of fall and Halloween is just a week away.

It is the perfect time to take a stroll around the historic Knoop homestead at the annual Jack-O-Lantern Hike this Saturday at Lost Creek Reserve in Troy, according to Miami County Park District Marketing Administrator Amanda Smith.

Participants are invited to drop in anytime between 7-9 p.m. and take a hike around the homestead aglow with 200 jack-o-lanterns.

The event, in its third year, is hosted by the Miami County Park District and sponsored by the Park District VIPs. Smith said the first

TROY — Finding a good book is like a walk in the park.

Troy-Miami County Library is wrapping up its first-ever “Book Walk” held in the

city of Troy’s Brukner Park.

The Book Walk, featuring the children’s book, “The Happy Owls” by Celestino Piatti, was a joint venture with the city of Troy’s Parks department. The library’s staff placed 18 stands, each with a page from the children’s book, around the park. Each reader walked to the next part of the book from one end of the park to the other. The

•Green your halloween The impact Halloween has on the environment is just as scary as the holiday itself! The National Retail Federation has estimated that Americans spend upwards of $5 billion annually on this frightening holiday, which adds up to a lot of candy wrappers, plastic masks and fake tombstones. However, it has never been easier to make this spooktacular holiday a little more environmentally friendly.

Following are a few tips from the Miami County Park District • Create your own costume — Not only will you avoid having the same costume as someone else, but also a lot of these costumes are made of plastic and are shipped from overseas.

• Green the goodies — Buy in bulk to eliminate the packaging waste or find an alternative treat, such as an apple, which has no waste.

• Buy a sustainable pumpkin — When purchasing your pumpkin this year look for a local farmer that doesn’t use pesticides.

• Look for natural decorations — instead of buying paper cutouts of witches and plastic pumpkins that have been shipped and made elsewhere, decorate with mums, pumpkins, corn stalks and straw. All these natural decorations can be composted after you’re done, plus they will make for a wonderful fall atmosphere.

Eight states join forces to promote clean cars

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Eight states, including California and New York, pledged Thursday to work together to dramatically multiply the number of zero-emission cars on the nation’s roads by speeding the construction of charging stations and other infrastructure.

The goal is to put 3.3 million battery-powered cars, plug-in hybrids and other clean-burning vehicles on the roads in those states by 2025.

That’s more than 15 times as many zero-emission vehicles projected to be in use in the entire U.S. by 2015.

Auto dealers say networks of charging stations and other conveniences are crucial to winning over drivers who are accustomed to pulling up to the gas pump and fear getting stranded by a dead battery.

The other states in the pact are Massachusetts, Maryland, Oregon, Connecticut, Rhode Island • Stocks of local interest and Vermont. The eight states together repreValues reflect closing prices sent about 23 percent of the U.S. auto market. from Thursday.

Trustee From page 1

resident of Staunton Township Work/Job Title: Farmer and employed at Farmers Elevator in Houston, Ohio Past Political Experience: Staunton Township Trustee for 36 years Why did you decide to run/seek reelection: Because I enjoy working with people and enjoy the job. We’re doing a pretty good job of it.

What are the key issues (two or more) facing the Staunton Township: The main issue is the state keep cutting our monies and doing the job with less and less. We’ve been able to negotiate fire and ambulance contracts with Troy and Casstown and kept them in check.

What special insights/talents do you bring to Staunton Township trustee position: I’ve lived in this area my whole life and I know most of the people and I enjoy being able to work with them.

Several attempts to contact Staunton Township Trustee candidate Levi Long were unsuccessful.

Troy Daily News • www.troydailynews.com

“The idea is to make it easier for customers to operate and use zero-emission vehicles. This in turn will help pave the way for success of the auto industry,” said Mary Nichols, chairman of the California Air Resources Board.

Deb Markowitz, Vermont’s natural resources secretary, said her state will probably form partnerships with companies to help them build charging stations and other necessary infrastructure.

Are the states contributing money to make this happen?

The agreement signed Thursday requires no specific financial commitment from each state.

But each has already launched incentive programs and other policies meant to increase sales of zero-emission vehicles.

For example, California offers up to $2,500 in buyer rebates. The state leads the nation in zero emission vehicle sales, with more than 33,000 sold through June 30, and has set aside an additional $59.55 million for some 29,000 rebates through mid-2014. The state has also dedicated $20 million annually through 2024 or until 100 hydrogen stations are built, whichever comes first.

Massachusetts pays incentives of up to $7,500 per vehicle to cities that buy electric models, and up to $15,000 for each charging station built. New York has set its own goal of adding a network of up to 3,000 charging stations over the next five years.

How many zero-emission vehicles are on road now, and how many models are available?

Industry data projects more than 200,000 zero-emissions vehicles on the nation’s roads by 2015. That’s out of more than 250 million registered vehicles in the U.S. There are 16 zero-emission models from eight manufacturers on the market — nine that run on batteries alone, two hydrogen fuel cell

cars and five plug-in hybrid models, which can run on battery alone or gasoline.

The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers in Washington says there will be 26 battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids for sale in 2014.

Officials say every automaker will have a zero-emission model by 2015.

What are the key things needed to reach this goal?

Auto manufacturers and dealers say consumers do not yet fully trust electric vehicles because of the lack of charging stations. Also, the clean-burning vehicles tend to be more expensive than gasoline-powered cars.

Automakers applauded Thursday’s agreement as an important step forward but cautioned that significant infrastructure investment will be needed to reach the goal.

Putting 3.3 million vehicles on the road “is not an achievable goal given what we’re doing today from an infrastructure investment standpoint. It’s just not,” said Dan Gage, a spokesman for the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers in Washington, which represents Toyota, General Motors and 10 others.

“Up to this point there’s been a lack of consumer interest, and a lot of that has to do with investment in infrastructure.”

There are more than 6,700 charging stations open to the public in the eight states in this agreement, which seeks to multiply that number exponentially over the next dozen years.

“We think that is going to be necessary for some of the (driving) range anxiety and other acceptance barriers that need to be broken down,” said Brian Maas, president of the California New Car Dealers Association.

“The cars are coming — they’re here already — but if you don’t have a place to charge them, there’s not going to be the level of consumer acceptance.”

Hike From page 1 year the jack-o-lanterns were actually incorporated into the corn maze.

“It is really beautiful to see the windows of the Knoop house lit up with jack-o-lanterns,” said Tama Cassidy, assistant education director of the Miami County Park District.

Jack-o-lanterns also will be along the trail leading to the barn where refreshments will be served.

Park district staff and numerous volunteers

carved the jack-o-lanterns for the event. Miami East Girl Scout Troop No. 30799 joined students from Bethel High School and middle school students from Piqua Catholic to transform pumpkins into works of art.

Smith said while not all the pumpkins are back from the groups yet, she is always impressed with the varying designs.

“Some are basic and some are intracially designed,” Smith said. “It

is really neat to see some of the work that has been put into them.”

And, those who design them enjoy sharing their work with the public, Smith said.

“The students are really excited to have their designs displayed at the event,” Cassidy said.

Decorating the porch will be “Picasscrow” scarecrows made by Piqua Catholic students from Mrs. Schneible’s art class.

Visitors can add a little adventure to the night by visiting the 6-acre corn maze open during the hike. This year’s design is a scarecrow in the center surrounded by traditional geometric designs, according to Smith.

Not only is the maze staying open for a night visit Saturday, but the degree of difficulty has been increased. Smith said there also is two exits this year, one at mid-point for those who

don’t think they can finish and the exit at the end.

“The corn maze at night is really fun. Just make sure to bring your flashlight,” Cassidy said.

The corn maze opens at noon Saturday and closes at 9 p.m. On Sunday, the maze will be open from noon to 5 p.m.

Candidates From page 1 provide the continued level of services to citizens, we are asking for support for this levy,” Wannemacher said.

Concord Township Trustees Campbell, Mercer and Pence are running for two positions on the Concord Township Board of Trustees.

Campbell has spent the past 12 years serving as a Concord Township Trustee.

“I have 12 years experience working for the township and have had a lot of training through the township working with issues specific to the township,” she said. “Also, as a woman, I think I see things that are good to do, not just things that have to be done.”

Mercer — a former Troy City Schools employee and administrator — has served the past four

years as a Concord Township Trustee.

“I am a lifelong citizen of the township,” Mercer said. “I raised my family here and my son raised is raising his family here. I want the township to be the best that it can be. I am very approachable, I have common sense and I think I make good decisions.”

Pence — a former treasurer for Troy City Schools — has not

served as a township trustee, but previously served as the township’s interim fiscal officer.

“I have a lifetime of administrative experience I can use,” Pence said. “I also have a financial background that includes working for the township. I am not somebody who would have a steep learning curve.”

Park From page 1 book walk began on Sept.

28 and will be removed by library staff on Saturday.

According to TroyMiami County Public Library’s executive director Rachelle Miller, the book walk was a popular feature in the park the

www.troydailynews.com

last several weeks.

Miller and staff had found the idea in a library magazine and thought a Book Walk would fit perfectly with the Brukner Park’s peaceful in the library’s “backyard.”

“The feedback has been really good,” Miller said.

“We had a lot of people sign the guestbook at the end. It looks like a lot of people brought their whole families or went out after our children’s programs.”

Miller said the city of Troy’s Parks department allowed the library to install its first Book Walk at Brukner Park and appreciated the collaboration to implement the library’s idea. Miller said the library enjoys using Brukner Park for various activities throughout the year.

“It was great being able to mix the outdoors with reading,” Miller said.

Nancy Hargrove, chil-

dren’s librarian, said the feedback was positive for the first self-guided “family reading experience.”

“We have received tremendous feedback,” Hargrove said. “It’s been fun to hear people talk about it when they come in to the library. The kids are outside reading in a fun way and I even see adults walking through and reading the children’s book as well.”

Pages of the children’s

book were laminated with help from the Characters Inc., Hargrove said.

Hargrove said it has been a joy to see people enjoying Brukner Park in a unique way.

“People are outside, reading and walking from each end of the park — it was really fun to watch,” she said.

The Troy-Miami County Library is located at 419 W. Main St., Troy.

Brukner Park is adjacent to the parking lot of the library. The Book Walk ends Saturday.

M-U student donates hair to help others

WEST MILTON — Karlee Thomas, 9, of Laura, recently donated her hair to the Locks of Love program, which provides wigs made of real hair to those battling diseases.

The third-grade student at Milton-Union Elementery School asked her parents, Brian and Kristie Thomas, about six months if she could get her very long hair cut. She then wanted to know what the beauty shop would do with all the hair they would cut off.

Her parents told her they usually throw it away, but if it was long enough she could donate it to help others with hair loss related to medical conditions such as cancer.

Karlee’s grandmother, Barb Thomas of Oakwood, was diagnosed with breast cancer this year and received chemotherapy and suffered hair loss as a result.

Karlee then decided to honor her family by donating her hair to Locks Of Love.

On Oct. 14, Karlee donated 10 inches of hair when she got her hair cut by her cousin Jill Allen at Mantra Salon in Englewood.

Karlee has told her parents that she is going to grow it again and donate her hair to continue to help others.

PERSPECTIVE

TROY DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL

City council there to make tough decisions Troy City Council recently was faced with a decision that it has had to deal with numerous times over the years — and will continue to face.

At its core, the question is this: Is the role of city council to answer directly to its constituents or to act in the best overall interests of the city?

Not every issue city council faces is an issue that will go on the ballot in November. At every meeting, they are faced with decisions that will affect the residents represent. Voters put those city council members in place so they won’t have to worry about every single sidewalk variance or other such matter that comes up before council. While council members frequently receive feedback from Troy residents, ultimately it is their decision to act in a matter that will most benefit the city and its residents.

At its last meeting, Troy City Council voted down the rezoning ordinance for the former Church of Christian Science to be rezoned to office commercial on Monday.

Two council members voted yes to rezone the former church building located at 1509 W. Main St. Both Bobby Phillips and Robin Oda voted “yes” to rezone the building, although Oda later said she would have voted ‘no’ on the issue.

The rezoning ordinance was voted down in its third reading by the majority of the council members.

After the council meeting, Oda, who voted first among all present council members, said she inadvertently voted for the rezoning because she thought she was voting in favor of the law and ordinance committee’s recommendation to not approve the rezoning issue.

We certainly understand both sides of this issue.

On the one hand, realtor Sandy Webb is looking to rezone the former church from residential to office commercial in an effort to sell the property. The price of the property already already has dropped significantly over the past few months and its current list price is $169,000. Webb is hoping to sell the property for to a commercial operation, possibly to put in a pharmacy.

Certainly, there would be possible benefits to the city from such a move, including the possibility of raising tax dollars and providing more jobs in the area.

On the other hand, however, residents of the Westbrook neighborhood in which the church currently resides had their fair share of concerns, as well, most notably increased traffic to the area and the possibility of that traffic creating a dangerous environment for the many children who live and play within the immediate area.

And so Troy City Council found itself at a crossroads — did it approve the rezoning in its continued efforts to bring new business into the city or did it listen to the concerns of the residents living in the area.

Ultimately, council elected to listen to the concerns of its residents and voted against the rezoning. City council did not act in a cavalier fashion in making this decision. Council listened to both sides, did due diligence with its research and had several readings before making its final decision.

We at the Troy Daily News applaud city council for making such a difficult decision — and, more than that, all the difficult decisions it has had to make, and will continue to make, over the years. City council frequently will be placed in such positions in which one side or another is going to think it made the wrong decision. It’s a difficult job Troy City Council members take on, but all are willing to put in the extra effort to make sure they are acting in the best interests of the city.

Finally, we would like to urge all residents of Troy to act with city council in making its decisions. Council was able to make its decision regarding the church, in large part, because of the feedback it received. City council members need and want feedback regarding difficult decisions. It is there to act as a voice for the voters. The more involved you become, the better they can do the jobs for which they were voted into office.

Teacher’s lessons won’t soon be forgotten Troy Troy Is, are, was, were, am, be, been.

Shall, should, will, would, can, could …. may, might, must. Have, has, had.

Do, does, did. Ought.

Those linking verbs will forever be ingrained in my brain from my junior high school days thanks to one of the best teachers I ever had — Mr. Thomas P. Brown.

Mr. Brown was a junior high school English and literature teacher at Miami East Junior High school system for more than three decades.

Now, junior high teachers are special people in their own right, yet Mr. Brown was a true character.

I always thought of him as a Jonathan Winters-type, with a dash of rural sternness from living on a farm — yet he had a mysterious sophistication about him. He appreciated the finer things in life whether it was literature, poetry, fine antiques and even his livestock.

He was also quite intimidating – in both size and knowledge — as if being in junior high wasn’t intimidating enough on its own. I remember being so glad that I snagged a seat on the farthest side of the room during the first few weeks of seventh grade.

Mr. Brown’s glare could burn holes

through steel, and the farther away I Many of these poems were recited was from that glare, the better. and still recalled to this day decades He was one also of the first teachers later. who challenged our young impressionI even remember babysitters would able “tunnel vision” brains.

out from behind the desk. Mr. Brown would beat the yard stick on top of his worn, wooden desk in the rhythm of the poem if you recited the words too fast or too slow or if you just plain forgot the words.

I’ll never look at a yard stick the same.

Over the years, the words of these poems still manage to come back to many of us. Each baseball game on TV, the words of “Casey at the Bat” would come flooding back. Around Memorial Day, the words of “Flanders Field” and the memorialized poppies would come to mind.

When I heard of Mr. Brown’s passing, many posts on Facebook memorialized his years of teaching. Most of them were the poems I mentioned above which generations of Miami East Vikings had to learn, and later on, still enjoy to this day.

Our community has truly lost a character this week. I don’t think I’m alone to note that it was fitting Mr. Thomas P. Brown would pass during the peak of fall when the frost is on the pumpkin.

Storm water pollution prevention program adopted For the Troy Daily News

MONROE TOWNSHIP — A revised storm water pollution prevention program was adopted in resolution form by the Monroe Township Trustees at their meeting held Oct. 21.

The resolution covers the operations and maintenance of the Monroe Township municipal facilities, and operations and maintenance activities.

This revised program for the township is designed to further reduce discharge of pollutants, protect water quality, and satisfy the appropriate water quality requirements of Ohio Revised Code 611 as described in the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency permit.

Projects for the township maintenance and grounds crew this month have been clean up and painting of the township building porch and its railing prior to the planned October 26 reopening of newly constructed Main Street in Tipp City; flower plantings and leaf clean up at township facilities and cemeteries; foundation pouring in preparation of new monument installations at Maple Hill Cemetery this fall; and maintenance to trucks that readies them for winter snow plowing events.

End of the month dates to note include trick-ortreat night for Monroe Township residents from 6-8 p.m. Oct. 31; and ability to place winter and holiday decorations at Monroe Township cemeteries beginning Oct. 27.

The trustees are still accepting resumes or letters of interest from any resident in the unincorporated area of Monroe Township wishing to fill a vacant volunteer seat on the Tipp Monroe Cable Access Commission as of January 1, 2014.

For further information,

contact either Cable Access at 667-8622 or the Township Office at 667-3136.

Miami County residents are reminded of the next Miami County Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off that will take place Wednesday, November 6 from 2-6 p.m. at the Miami County Sanitary Engineering, 2200 North County Road 25-A in Troy.

Additional information about accepted items for proper disposal, call Sanitary Engineering at 440-3488.

Bills paid at the Oct. 21 township board meeting totaled $35,216.89.

The next meeting scheduled by the trustees is set for 7 p.m. Nov. 4 one day prior to this year’s general election of Nov. 5. Residents are reminded that all five Monroe Township polling places have been moved. Voters should have received a notice from the Miami County Board of Elections with their new voting location. They are as follows: Monroe East Central Precinct: was Monroe Township Building (Michaels Road) moved to Ginghamsburg Church (6759 South County Road 25-A) Monroe West Precinct: was Tipp City Church of Christ (South County Road 25-A) moved to Ginghamsburg Church (6759 S. County Road 25-A) Monroe South Precinct: was Charity Baptist Church (Evanston Road) moved to Ginghamsburg Church (6759 S. County Road 25-A) Monroe North East Precinct: was Dave Arbogast Dealership (South County Road 25-A) moved to Randall Residence (6400 South County Road 25-A) Monroe South East Precinct: was First Baptist Church (South Tipp-Cowlesville Road) moved to Randall Residence (6400 South County Road 25-A).

3 states tussle over bragging rights to 1st flight telling everyone what was going on.”

Whitehead’s supporters said he had bad judgment when he tried to commercialize his design.

Perales said he is an engineer and is willing to consider evidence that perhaps the Wright brothers were not the first.

“If there is substantial evidence that leads us to believe it may be different then we’re all comfortable with that,” he said. “But there’s absolutely nothing.”

A telephone message left at Malloy’s office was not immediately returned.

Both Perales and Cook said the fight has surfaced in the past and the Connecticut legislature is not the first to weigh in.

“This thing comes up every 20 years or so,” Perales said.

Cook said that in 1985, the North Carolina legislature passed a resolution repudiating any contention that Whitehead was the first in flight.

speculation and hearsay,” Crouch said then. “People who have looked at this over the years … almost unanimously reject the claim.”

But the Smithsonian is forbidden by a contract with the Wright brothers’ estate to admit that anyone else was the first to fly, in part because they had previously fought off other claims.

Both lawmakers said the Whitehead claim is based on a grainy photo that is inconclusive.

Cook said what is supposed to be Whitehead’s plane in the photograph “looks like a frog to me.” After their flight, the Wright brothers took their plane to Europe to show folks the newfangled flying technology but Whitehead did little, he said.

“He didn’t go anywhere or do anything,” Cook said. “If it was me, and I had invented a machine to fly and was the first one to do it, I would be out there crowing and

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Because ex-partners might be back on the scene, be willing to compromise. This might be an opportunity for closure or further explanation about something.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Do whatever you can to get better organized, because Mercury retrograde is causing havoc in your efficiency at work. However, it will help you to finish old projects.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Discussions about children, social events, the arts and sports are a focus now. You can make headway on plans that were already started. It's time to wrap things up.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is a good time to make repairs at home or catch up on things that you've been putting off for ages.

Some of you might be sifting through stuff you haven't seen for a while.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Because you're busy, silly errors, confused communication and misplaced items are frustrating you! Just grin and bear it. (Slow down, and give yourself enough wiggle room to cope with everything.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is a good time to wrap up financial matters that you've been planning for a while. However, it's a poor time to begin new ideas, especially opening a business.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Old friends are back in your world again. You might have a sense of deja vu with quite a few things now, because Mercury is retrograde in your sign.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your ability to research anything, study the past or delve into history is excellent now. Look for solutions to old problems.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a good time to deal with a problem you might have with a friend or members of a group. People are willing to discuss this now. They want to clear up misunderstandings.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You look good to others now, especially people in authority. If someone wants you to repeat something you did before or to perform again, you can do it.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Travel plans might be delayed now.

Ditto for plans related to higher education, publishing, medicine and the law. Instead, focus on wrapping up old business.

YOU BORN TODAY You are a planner and a doer. You also have excellent money savvy. You want your world to be organized smoothly around you and will clean up whatever is not working. You work well with groups, especially if they coincide with your own goals and success. You are brave, fearless and intense.

Healthcare.gov failures surface at Hill hearing WASHINGTON (AP) — The leading contractors on the Obama administration’s troubled health insurance website told Congress Thursday that the government failed to thoroughly test the complicated system before it went live.

Executives of CGI Federal, which built the federal HealthCare.gov website serving 36 states, and QSSI, which designed the part that helps verify applicants’ income and other personal details, testified under oath before the powerful House Energy and Commerce Committee.

The contractors said they each tested their own components independently but that the Health and Human Services department was responsible for testing the whole system from end to end. That kind of testing didn’t happen until the last couple of weeks before the system’s Oct. 1 launch.

It quickly crashed once consumers tried to use it.

Representing QSSI, Andrew Slavitt told the committee that ideally, end-to-end testing should have occurred well before the launch, with enough time to correct flaws.

How much time?

“Months would be nice,” said Slavitt.

“We would have loved to have months,” concurred CGI vice president Cheryl Campbell.

The administration’s determination to go live on Oct. 1 despite qualms about testing quickly became a focus of the

AP Photo Andrew Slavitt, group executive vice president for Optum/QSSI, left, and Lynn Spellecy, corporate counsel for Equifax Workforce Solutions, listen to questioning during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing with contractors that built the federal government’s health care websites on Thursday in Washington. The troubled rollout of what’s known as Obamacare has re-invigorated Republicans who failed in their drive to defund the program by shutting down the government.

hearing, which turned sharply partisan at times.

Republicans, still committed to repealing Obama’s health care law, approached the questioning with a prosecutorial tone, leading New Jersey Democrat Frank Pallone to call the whole exercise a “monkey court.”

The contractors did say the problems can and are being fixed on a daily basis, and they expressed confidence that uninsured Americans would have coverage by Jan. 1, when

the law’s benefits take effect, though they would not be held to a timetable.

The hearing comes as President Barack Obama’s allies are starting to fret about the political fallout. Democrats had hoped to run for re-election next year on the benefits of the health care law for millions of uninsured Americans.

Instead, computer problems are keeping many consumers from signing up through new online markets.

One House Democrat says

the president needs to “man up” and fire somebody, while others are calling for signup deadlines to be extended and a reconsideration of the penalties individuals will face next year if they remain uninsured.

Rep. Richard Nolan, D-Minn., told The Associated Press the computer fiasco has “damaged the brand” of the health care law.

“The president needs to man up, find out who was responsible, and fire them,” Nolan said. He did not name anyone.

The focus on the contractors is a first step for GOP investigators. After the failure of their drive to defund “Obamacare” by shutting down the government, Republicans have suddenly been handed a new line of attack by the administration itself. Administration officials, including Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, are to testify next week.

Slavitt, representing QSSI’s parent company, said the operation’s virtual back room, known as the federal data hub, is working well despite some bugs.

But his company was also involved with another part of the system, a balky component for registering individual consumer accounts that became an online bottleneck.

Slavitt acknowledged the registration system had problems but said they’ve largely been cleared away.

And he also laid blame on the administration, saying that a

late decision to require consumers to create accounts before they could browse health plans contributed to the overload.

“This may have driven higher simultaneous usage of the registration system that wouldn’t have occurred if consumers could window-shop anonymously,” he said.

Rep. Joe Pitts, R-Pa., chairman of the panel’s health subcommittee, said he wants to focus on the administration’s decision not to allow browsing, or window-shopping. That’s a standard feature of e-commerce sites, including Medicare.gov for seniors. Lack of a browsing capability forced all users to first go through the laborious process of creating accounts, overloading that part of the site.

“Who made that decision?

When was it made? Why was it made?” Pitts asked.

Without proof, some Republicans are suggesting it was done for political reasons, so shoppers could first see tax credits that work a like discount on their premiums.

Acknowledging what’s been obvious to many outside experts, the administration now says the system didn’t get enough testing, especially at a high user volume. It blamed a compressed time frame for meeting the Oct. 1 deadline to open the insurance markets.

Basic “alpha and user testing” are now completed, but that’s supposed to happen before a launch, not after.

Merkel: U.S. spying has Behind the wheel, Saudi shattered allies’ trust

BRUSSELS (AP) — European leaders united in anger Thursday as they attended a summit overshadowed by reports of widespread U.S. spying on its allies — allegations German Chancellor Angela Merkel said had shattered trust in the Obama administration and undermined the crucial trans-Atlantic relationship.

The latest revelations that the U.S. National Security Agency swept up more than 70 million phone records in France and may have tapped Merkel’s own cellphone brought denunciations from the French and German governments.

Merkel’s unusually stern remarks as she arrived at the European Union gathering indicated she wasn’t placated by a phone conversation she had Wednesday with President Barack Obama, or his personal assurances that the U.S. is not listening in on her calls now.

“We need trust among allies and partners,” Merkel told reporters in Brussels. “Such trust now has to be built anew. This is what we have to think about.”

“The United States of America and Europe face common challenges. We are allies,” the German leader said. “But such an alliance can only be built on trust. That’s why I repeat again: spying

among friends, that cannot be.”

The White House may soon face other irked heads of state and government. The British newspaper The Guardian said Thursday it obtained a confidential memo suggesting the NSA was able to monitor 35 world leaders’ communications in 2006. The memo said the NSA encouraged senior officials at the White House, Pentagon and other agencies to share their contacts so the spy agency could add foreign leaders’ phone numbers to its surveillance systems, the report said.

The Guardian did not identify who reportedly was eavesdropped on, but said the memo termed the payoff very meager: “Little reportable intelligence” was obtained, it said.

Other European leaders arriving for the 28-nation meeting echoed Merkel’s displeasure.

Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt called it “completely unacceptable” for a country to eavesdrop on an allied leader.

If reports that Merkel’s cellphone had been tapped are true, “it is exceptionally serious,” Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte told national broadcaster NOS. “We want the truth,” Italian Premier Enrico Letta told reporters. “It is not in the least bit conceivable that activity of

this type could be acceptable.”

Echoing Merkel, Austria’s foreign minister, Micheal Spindelegger, said, “We need to reestablish with the U.S. a relationship of trust, which has certainly suffered from this.”

France, which also vocally objected to allies spying on each other, asked that the issue of reinforcing Europeans’ privacy in the digital age be added to the agenda of the two-day summit.

Before official proceedings got underway, Merkel held a brief one-on-one with French President Francois Hollande, and discussed the spying controversy.

The Europeans’ statements and actions indicated that they hadn’t been satisfied with assurances from Washington.

On Wednesday, White House spokesman Jay Carney said Obama personally assured Merkel that her phone is not being listened to now and won’t be in the future.

“I think we are all outraged, across party lines,” Wolfgang Bosbach, a prominent German lawmaker from Merkel’s party, told Deutschlandfunk radio. “And that also goes for the response that the chancellor’s cellphone is not being monitored — because this sentence says nothing about whether the chancellor was monitored in the past.”

Town mourns after teen charged in teacher’s death

DANVERS, Mass. (AP) — Grief counselors met Thursday with students mourning the death of a popular high school math teacher who authorities say was killed by one of her 14-year-old students.

Classes won’t resume until Friday at Danvers High School, where 24-year-old Colleen Ritzer was described as a caring teacher who stood outside her classroom and said hello to even students she didn’t teach.

Authorities have not said whether she had any run-ins with Philip Chism, a student new to the school who is charged with murder.

Ritzer was reported missing Tuesday after she did not return home from school. Blood in a second-floor bathroom helped lead investigators to her body, which was dumped in the woods behind the school in a close-knit community about 20 miles north of Boston.

Authorities have not released a cause of death or a motive. Chism, who was also reported missing, was found walking along a

state highway overnight.

Fellow students said Chism had moved to Massachusetts from Tennessee before the start of the school year and was a top scorer on the school’s junior varsity soccer team.

Jean McCartin, a Danvers School Committee member, said the school has extensive programs to help ease the transition for new students who may have problems, but there was no information about Chism that would have presented any red flags.

“He just presented himself to us like any other student would,” she said Thursday.

“And that’s what I think is so hard for the administration right now. You know, their hearts are breaking because they just didn’t know he was in need, if he was in need. We don’t know. We just don’t know what his motive was, nobody knows at this point. No one knows why he would have behaved in this way and done such a terrible thing.”

women hope for new gains DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — It’s been a little more than two years since the last time women in Saudi Arabia campaigned for the right to drive. Now activists are calling for women to get behind the wheel again Saturday, and they hope reforms made by the monarchy since then have readied the deeply conservative nation for change.

The reforms made by King Abdullah in recent years have been cautious, showing his wariness of pushing too hard against influential ultraconservatives. But given the overwhelming restrictions on women in the kingdom, where the strict interpretation of Islam known as Wahhabism is effectively the law of the land, even the tiny openings have had a resounding effect.

Perhaps one sign of the impact of the changes is the loudness of the backlash by conservatives against Saturday’s

driving campaign.

Around 150 clerics rallied outside one of the king’s palaces this week, some accusing Abdullah’s top ally the United States of being behind calls to let women drive. A prominent cleric caused a stir when he said last month that medical studies show that driving a car harms a woman’s ovaries. Those opposed to the campaign have also used social media to attack women activists or have urged people to harass female drivers.

The government has given mixed signals about how it will deal with the campaign, illustrated by a statement put out this week by the Interior Ministry, which is in charge of police.

The ministry warned against marches or gatherings under the pretext of the driving campaign. It said violators “disturbing public peace” will be dealt with firmly.

Woman in Bulgaria questioned in ‘Maria’ case SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) — A Roma woman in Bulgaria has undergone DNA testing and faces preliminary charges of child selling as authorities investigate if she is the mother of a young girl found living with an unrelated couple in Greece, authorities said Thursday.

Though the tests have yet to prove Sasha Ruseva, 35, is the biological mother of the girl known as Maria, the woman’s admission that she once left a baby behind in Greece opened her up to a formal investigation.

Ruseva acknowledged to Bulgarian TV that she had been questioned about the girl, believed to be 5 or 6 years old, who was found during a raid for drugs and weapons in a Roma camp in central Greece last week. The child’s case gained global notice and has drawn what human rights advocates say is unfair accusations in general against the Roma community, which has long faced racism and poverty.

Ruseva said she wanted the child back if tests prove she is the girl’s mother.

But she denied taking any money for giving up her baby to another Roma, or Gypsy, family, years ago.

The preliminary charges filed against her allow authorities to start an investigation into whether money exchanged hands.

Greek authorities took

custody of “Maria” after a prosecutor present during the camp raid noticed the blonde, blue-eyed and paleskinned girl looked nothing like the couple who were raising her, and a DNA test confirmed she was not related to the couple.

Bulgarian Interior Ministry chief secretary Svetlozar Lazarov said that during Thursday’s questioning by police, Ruseva said she had recognized the Greek Roma couple in the “Maria” case, whose pictures have been broadcast on TV, as the same people with whom she left her child while working in Greece.

The couple, ages 39 and 40, have been remanded in custody by Greek authorities, on charges of child abduction and document fraud. They had insisted to police and prosecutors they had been given the girl by a destitute Bulgarian woman who was unable to raise her, and had brought her up with their own five children.

But authorities had initially doubted her account and launched an international search to match her to children reported missing.

Police alleged that the woman had declared six births in less than 10 months, and that the couple registered a total 14 children with officials in three cities. The suspects

allegedly received more than 2,500 euros ($3,450) a month in welfare payments, and authorities are examining whether the child registrations amounted to welfare fraud.

The girl’s DNA, however, didn’t match any cases of missing children held by the international police agency Interpol.

The search eventually led to central Bulgaria, where police tracked down Ruseva in the town of Nikolaevo.

Ruseva said she gave birth to a girl while working as an olive picker in Greece “several years ago,” but that she had to leave the child because she didn’t have enough money to take her home. Ruseva has had eight children.

“I intended to go back and take my child home, but meanwhile I gave birth to two more kids so I was not able to go back,” Ruseva said on Bulgarian TV, insisting that she did not get paid for giving up the girl.

Though Ruseva herself is dark-haired and darkskinned, she held a fairskinned baby girl — with hair dyed bright orange — in her arms as she spoke, while a blond, pale-skinned young boy played at her feet. Bulgarian television showed footage from the dilapidated house in the impoverished Roma camp where Ruseva lives.

Despite billions in aid, Afghans can’t find work KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Hundreds of men, some on crutches, all wearing tattered clothing, gather shortly before dawn at major intersections throughout Kabul and other Afghan cities. Displaying primitive tools such as a level or a trowel, they seek labor that is often backbreaking, always temporary and will earn just a few dollars for a day’s work.

Employers circle the intersections, eyeing the crowds. Usually they are looking for one or two workers for minor construction tasks. Before they even stop, dozens of men swarm their vehicle, fighting with each other to get one of perhaps five or six jobs available that morning.

Despite billions of dollars from abroad to develop this impoverished country since the U.S.-led invasion toppled the Taliban regime in 2001, roughly 12 million people, or eight out of every 10 working-age Afghan are unskilled day laborers, according to an International Labor Organization report. Most land only temporary jobs.

In rural areas, work is also temporary — but it’s also seasonal and often illegal, the report said. Some of the biggest employers, opium-producing poppy farmers, provide tens of thousands of short-term jobs.

But almost everywhere, the pay is meager. Afghans with jobs, whether part-time or full-time, earn on average $410 per year — or about $1 per day, according to the World Bank.

Mir Afghan, a day laborer standing on line one recent morning at a Kabul intersection, says he hasn’t worked in 13 days and is $1,260 in debt. He said neighbors occasionally help him out and local stores give him food on credit.

One neighbor recently loaned him $9 to buy medicine for one of his six children.

At Mir Afghan’s home in a congested neighborhood on the edge of Kabul, his wife, Sabar Gul, started crying when asked about the family’s meals. Cradling

her coughing and feverish infant son in her arms, she said she has enough food to cook only one meal each day and they rarely can afford to eat meat.

The International Labor Organization report, released last year, offered several grim statistics: nearly half of Afghans don’t have enough to eat; 18 percent of children under 15 years old are working; and 82 percent of Afghans are illiterate.

Most businesses are not registered and thus do not pay taxes. That means the government, riddled with corrupt officials, is heavily dependent on international aid as well as on the black market — most often linked to the country’s flourishing drug trade.

Ten years ago the International Labor Organization warned that long-term stability and prosperity would elude Afghanistan if employment, the kind

that guarantees a regular income, wasn’t made a key component of projects to reconstruct this war-ravaged country.

But aid organizations were reluctant to get involved in job creation, the private sector remained stagnant despite significant investment in telecommunications, and many wealthy Afghans chose to put their money in other countries.

Nowadays, the report said, most Afghans cannot find permanent work, and even temporary work is drying up as international aid money dwindles ahead of the 2014 deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. and NATO combat troops from Afghanistan.

“There is a serious looming problem with unemployment in Afghanistan,” said Graeme Smith, senior Afghanistan analyst for the Brussels-based

International Crisis Group.

“Ordinary workers have depended heavily on construction, trucking and other sectors that saw boom times because of the presence of foreign troops and aid projects — and there’s likely a coming bust, as soldiers withdraw and development budgets shrink,” he said. “This could badly affect stability and security.”

A day laborer works two, maybe three days a week, said Maroof Qaderi, president of the National Union of Afghanistan Workers, Employees. They are often heavily indebted to banks, family and friends.

A 2011 report by the International Crisis Group said $57 billion in international aid had been dispersed in Afghanistan since 2001. But while the figure seems huge, if divided among the country’s 34.4 million people, it would come up to roughly $1,657 per person over 10 years, or about $166 per each Afghan per year. The ICG said the $57 billion represents only a “fraction of what has been spent on the war effort.”

To pay his bills, Mir Afghan has taken his oldest son, Mohammad, out of school and put him to work making carpets and doing odd jobs.

But Mohammed, a lean 19-year-old, says he keeps up his studies at night.

“I don’t want my life to be the shovel.

I want to finish high school, and go to a government college to study economics,” he said.

For the past several mornings, several university students have mingled among the scores of men, including Mir Afghan, looking for work at the intersection in Koti Sangi, a district in the heart of the Afghan capital.

Waheedullah, 22, says his family has only enough money to pay for his attending classes part-time, and he’s worried he won’t be able to finish his studies. He gets up at 4:30 a.m. to bicycle to Koti Sangi, where he hopes to find a couple of days of work.

Syria releases 61 Top Iranian official to female detainees, meet with UN nuke chief activists say BEIRUT (AP) — Dozens of female detainees were quietly freed by Syrian authorities, activists and a lawyer said Thursday, the latest in a three-way prisoner exchange made more remarkable because rival factions largely oppose any bartered deals in the civil war.

Simultaneously, a Syrian court ordered the release of Tal al-Mallohi, a prominent young Syrian blogger who was convicted of spying for a foreign country, said her Damascus-based lawyer, Anwar al-Bunni.

The 61 women were released Wednesday, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Around a dozen were released at dawn, the rest in the evening, the group said.

Most of them were released from Damascus’ central prison and from lockups in military compounds, al-Bunni said, citing information from human rights lawyers.

Al-Bunni and the rights group said the release was part of a complicated hostage swap last week brokered

by Qatar and the Palestinian Authority.

In the deal, Syrian rebels freed nine Lebanese Shiite Muslims, while Lebanese gunmen simultaneously released two Turkish pilots.

Lebanese officials earlier said a third part of the deal called for the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad to free a number of female detainees to meet the rebels’ demands. Lebanese officials weren’t available for comment Thursday.

Syrian officials would not comment. They typically do not acknowledge having any contact, directly or indirectly, with Syrian rebels in the civil war, apparently worried it would tacitly acknowledge their legitimacy.

“They are embarrassed,” said lawyer al-Bunni.

Warring factions have quietly agreed to prisoner swaps and even truces from time to time, even though both sides have so far held off on any negotiations that would end the conflict. The Syrian uprising has killed tens of thousands, devastated the

country and caused about one-third of Syria’s 23 million people to flee their homes.

It was not immediately clear if al-Mallohi was part of the broader prisoner swap.

Al-Bunni said the blogger’s prison sentence had ended two months ago.

“We just can’t say if they just decided to give her back her rights, or if it was related,” al-Bunni said, speaking by phone from Damascus.

The lawyer said that following the court order, he expected her to be freed in the coming weeks.

Al-Mallohi was arrested in 2009 and sentenced to five years in prison shortly before the uprising against Assad began in March 2011. She was 19 at the time.

Her blog focused primarily on the suffering of Palestinians. It wasn’t clear if al-Mallohi’s arrest was connected to the blog.

The involvement of officials from Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Qatar and the Palestinian Authority showed how the Syrian crisis, now in its third year, has involved the wider region.

In neighboring Lebanon, clashes between rival sects in the northern city of Tripoli killed seven people since clashes flared earlier this week, security officials said.

The civil war has had a particularly damaging effect on already-tense sectarian tensions in Tripoli, Lebanon’s second-largest city.

The rival gunmen come from two impoverished Tripoli neighborhood, home to Assad opponents and supporters. The Bab Tabbaneh district is largely Sunni Muslim, like Syria’s rebels.

The other neighborhood, Jabal Mohsen, mostly has residents of Assad’s Alawite sect, a Shiite Islam offshoot.

The latest round of fighting began four days ago.

Tensions had been mounting since Oct. 14, after a after a Lebanese military prosecutor pressed charges against seven men, at least one of whom was from Jabal Mohsen, for their involvement in twin bombings near two Sunni mosques in Tripoli on Aug. 23 that killed 47 people.

VIENNA (AP) — A top nuclear negotiator from Tehran will meet with the head of the U.N.’s nuclear agency next week just hours before agency experts sit down with Iranian counterparts to renew their push for access to sites, people and documents believed linked to possible work on atomic arms, the agency said Thursday.

The talks between International Atomic Energy Agency specialists and Iranian negotiators have been set for nearly a month. But Iran’s decision to send Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi was only announced Thursday.

Araghchi’s mission in Vienna was unclear, but he played a key role in nuclear talks last week with six world powers that negotiators from both sides described as encouraging after years of inconclusive meetings. Those talks in Geneva were focused on limiting Iranian nuclear programs that can be used both to generate power and make fissile warhead material.

A new round is scheduled Nov.

7-8. In Vienna, IAEA experts are looking to investigate suspicions that Iran for years worked secretly on developing a nuclear weapons program.

Iran has no nuclear arms and denies such work, saying all its atomic activities are peaceful.

While the two talks are formally separate, they are linked by concerns over Iran’s nuclear aspirations, and progress in one may result in advances in the other.

The IAEA, in an email to The Associated Press, said Araghchi will meet with agency chief Yukiya Amano on Monday afternoon for about an hour. Two hours later, agency officials seeking to restart their probe of suspicions that Tehran worked on the bomb will meet with Iranian officials, the IAEA said.

The Vienna talks have been deadlocked for nearly two years, with agency experts seeking an open-ended probe and Iran insisting that it be carefully scripted.

But officials from both sides spoke of a “constructive” meeting after

the latest round last month. That assessment and reports of progress in Geneva are both seen as encouraging tests of pledges by Hassan Rouhani, Iran’s new centrist president, to reduce nuclear tensions.

As part of its probe, the agency is trying to gain access to a sector at Parchin, a sprawling military establishment southeast of Tehran. The agency suspects the site may have been used to test conventional explosive triggers meant to set off a nuclear blast.

Amano told reporters earlier this year he was concerned about satellite images showing asphalt work, soil removal and “possible dismantling of infrastructures” at the site.

Iran says such activities are part of regular construction that has nothing to do with alleged attempts to cleanse the area of evidence. But Amano said that because of such activities, “it may no longer be possible to find anything even if we have access to the site.”

Egyptian Cabinet shortens nighttime curfew CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s government announced Thursday it once again shortened a nighttime curfew put in place more than two months ago in much of the country over the unrest that followed the ouster of the country’s president.

Meanwhile, a Muslim man wounded in a widely denounced attack on a wedding party outside a Cairo church died Thursday, raising the death toll in Sunday’s attack to five.

The Cabinet said in a statement the curfew now will be four hours a night, from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m., six days a week.

On Fridays, the Cabinet said the curfew will remain 10 hours, starting at 7 p.m.

Friday is the start of the weekend in Egypt and has been a day of major protests since its 2011 uprising. Now, supporters of ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi take to the streets in rallies Friday that often

descend into clashes.

The curfew, effective in a number of cities including the capital, Cairo, was announced along with a nationwide state of emergency in mid-August. It followed a government crackdown on pro-Morsi sitins in the capital that killed hundreds and unleashed a wave of violence targeting government offices, security personnel and churches.

Those attacks include Sunday’s assault by masked gunmen on a Coptic Christian church holding a wedding in the Cairo district of Warraq. An Interior Ministry statement issued Thursday said a fifth victim, a Muslim man, had died of the wounds he suffered from the shooting.

He was the only Muslim killed in the attack, which saw motorcycle-riding gunmen spray the wedding party outside the Church of the Virgin Mary with bullets before speeding away.

The attack, whose victims included two young Christian girls, caused an outcry in Egypt, where suspicion immediately fell on Morsi supporters. Many of Morsi supporters have accused Coptic Christians of working to bring down the Islamist president.

More unrest is likely as demonstrations over Morsi’s ouster continue.

This Friday, an alliance of pro-Morsi groups, led by the Muslim Brotherhood, called for rallies around the country as part of protests dubbed the week of “steadfastness.”

The coalition said it will continue rallies to Nov. 4, the day when Morsi is scheduled to appear in court for the first time since the July 3 military coup that toppled him.

Morsi, who remains held at an undisclosed location by the military, faces criminal charges accusing him of inciting the murder of rallying opponents while he was in office.

Authorities have not said whether Morsi will appear at the hearing.

They have expressed fear over possible attempts by his supporters to disrupt the trial or rally outside the hearing.

Security officials say the trial is likely to be held in a police academy inside a high-security prison complex in southern Cairo. Morsi supporters accuse government officials of using security concerns as an excuse to postpone the trial.

Security concerns also have been fuelled by a surge in militant attacks in the restive northern Sinai peninsula.

On Thursday, security officials said suspected Islamic militants in a car killed a police officer as he was walking to work in the provincial capital, el-Arish. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

Cavs eliminate Bees: Rob Kiser

Civitas Media rkiser@civitasmedia.com

BELLBROOK — Taylor Lachey’s rifle shot from 30 yards out let the air out of Bethel’s upset hopes against Lehman in a Division III district final Thursday night at Bellbrook High School and the Cavaliers rode that momentum into Shelby County history.

Lachey’s goal broke a scoreless deadlock late in the first half and Lehman went on to win 5-0 to become the first girls soccer team from Shelby County to win a district title — joining Lehman boys as the

only district champions from the county in soccer.

The Cavaliers will play Summit Country Day, a team they beat 2-1 during the season, in a regional semifinal at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Hamilton High School.

“This feels great,” Lachey, a senior on Lehman’s district runner-up team last year.

“That definitely was a big goal of ours.”

And while Lehman dominated throughout — outshooting the Bees 25-6, the Cavaliers didn’t break through for almost 38 minutes.

With just 2:17 remaining

Cardinals, Sox tied after 3

BOSTON (AP) — Rookie Michael Wacha kept pitching like a postseason ace and John Lackey matched him, leaving the St. Louis Cardinals and Boston Red Sox scoreless through three innings Thursday night in Game 2 of the World Series.

A day after the Red Sox romped past the sloppy Cardinals 8-1, this one was tight at the start as Boston tried for its 10th straight Series win and a commanding lead.

At 22, Wacha came as advertised. He pitched well beyond his years — and in October, of all things.

The right-hander flashed a 95 mph fastball and a diving changeup while holding Boston hitless until Jacoby Ellsbury’s broken-bat bloop single with two outs in the third.

No one in the Boston lineup had ever hit against Wacha and it showed, as the Red Sox struck out four times and took a lot of weak, awkward swings.

The Cardinals had seen this already from Wacha, even though he made only nine regular-season starts. He began the night with a 3-0 record in three postseason starts, allowing just eight hits while striking out 22.

Wacha had his own cheering section at chilly Fenway Park, too. His mom, dad and younger sister bundled up in the stands after arriving from Texarkana, Texas.

Senior’s hat trick, OT goal keeps Devils alive Josh Brown

Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com

HUBER HEIGHTS — McKenzie Logan simply didn’t want it to end.

“I did not want this to be our last game,” the Tippecanoe senior said. “I couldn’t stand to think of it. I love my team so much.

I just wanted to keep playing.”

So she did something about it.

And again. And again.

Logan scored two separate game-tying goals — one on a penalty kick early in the second half and the other with 3:29 left to play, forcing overtime — then she redirected in the game-winning goal with 3:00 left in the first overtime period as Tippecanoe stunned Northwestern 4-3 in the Division III girls soccer district final Thursday at Wayne High School.

“She’s been our workhorse all year,” Tippecanoe coach Brandon Baker said.

“When she gets hit, she will pop back up every time. She is non-stop.”

Troy Christian falls to Country Day, 5-2 Staff Reports

MONROE — Three shots at district championships in three tries?

The Troy Christian Eagles (154) have nothing to hang their heads about, not even after a 5-2 loss to heavily-favored Cincinnati Country Day Tuesday night in the Division III girls soccer district final at Monroe High School.

In fact, it’s only the beginning — even with the departure of seniors Morgan Haddad, Lydia Demmitt, Taylor Curtis and Jordanne Varvel.

“We’ve talked this past three years about building a legacy,” Peters said.

“And I think these girls have done a great job of setting a solid foundation for what the expectations should be. These seniors are going to be greatly missed, though. They are all 75-80-minute girls, great character and they never complain. Their training regimen is over the top.”

Lauren Peters even put Troy Christian up 1-0 roughly three minutes into the game, but Country Day cashed in a pair of scores before the half and simply showed the Eagles a look they didn’t handle well.

“After Lauren scored, we got stuck in our defensive third, gave away probably six corner kicks, and they finally got one in. We went down 2-1 at the half, made some adjustments … but it was very much like the Lehman game (a 3-0 loss),” Peters said. “We just do not play well against kick-and-run teams. We expected them to play more our style.

“They were a decent team, big and strong, and they played us in a way we did not expect.”

Still, two years ago the Eagles lost in the district final, and last season they made it all the way to the regional final.

The foundation is set, and this Eagle team’s legacy is solidified as one of the best ever.

QUESTIONS & ATTITUDE Compelling questions ... and maybe a few actual answers

SPEED FREAKS

A couple of questions we just had to ask — ourselves

AP/JAY SAILORS

Jimmie will decide how many guys can play Chase.

Is it now a four-man Chase again?

GODSPEAK: Yes, it’s the “Fearsome Foursome,” and Jimmie himself is the “Iron Wall.”

KEN’S CALL: If Jimmie wants three others to play, then it’s a four-man race.

What does the Talladega win mean for Jamie McMurray’s future?

GODSPEAK: As “Big Mac” watches teammate Juan Pablo Montoya pack his steamer trunk, the win means a bit of job security.

KEN’S CALL: Nothing long term. Outside of the Daytona 500, you can say that about all plate races.

HOT TOPICS: 3 ISSUES GENERATING A BUZZ

INFORMATION OVERLOAD

Much like Major League Baseball, the Cup Series lends itself to a wealth of statistics. This one, snagged off the NASCAR Wire Service, caught our attention. When Dale Earnhardt Jr. crossed the start/finish line to lead Lap 34 on Oct. 12 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, he logged the onemillionth mile in Cup Series competition since the transition from traditional carburetors to electronic fuel injection.

Why no fanfare? The story said, “It should come as no surprise that the milestone was decidedly under the radar, given that the switch to EFI itself has been smooth, almost seamless and virtually invisible.”

The EFI was introduced in 2012 and hasn’t missed a beat, plus team engineers now have a “cool factor” in the garage when they hook the stock cars to laptop computers and search for engine data.

SCENE STEALER Aric Almirola stole a bit of the Chase spotlight when he earned pole-position honors for Sunday’s 500-miler at Talladega Superspeedway.

Almirola, who wheels Richard Petty Motorsport’s flagship No. 43 Ford, earned the top starting position based on opening practice speeds after qualifying was rained out on Saturday.

Almirola credited teammate Marcos Ambrose, who drives the No. 9 Ford, with helping him take the unexpected honor. They drafted together during practice to nail down fast speed.

The Tampa driver said RPM took Saturday’s weather forecast into consideration before heading into Friday’s practice. The team realized a fast practice speed could become important if time trials were weathered out.

They were right.

“We went into practice with a plan, me and

News-Journal/DAVID TUCKER

Jeff isn’t condo shopping in the Greater Martinsville area.

Martinsville, Va.? Is this really a playoff venue?

Marcos, and we got a big run on the pack and put up a good lap,” Ambrose said.

“We knew that there was a small chance for rain (Saturday). However, obviously under the circumstances we thought it would be good to put up a good lap just in case it did rain — we would be in a good position. We had a plan and we stuck to it and it worked out, so that was good. Anytime you do that and start up front under any circumstances is good.”

Seeing Petty’s equipment on the pole was a nice respite from the Chase, which is under such intense scrutiny for 10 consecutive weeks.

Our guess is, the good folks in ham country better enjoy their place on the schedule. Once the new TV contract kicks in, beginning in 2015, some things will probably change — including the markets where NASCAR settles its championship. Martinsville isn’t likely to lose a race date, which is good news, given how doses of true short-track racing are necessary.

But a tiny market as one of the final four stops on the championship trail?

Kinda like giving the Independence Bowl a BCS date.

OVERCOMING ADVERSITY

Is that a shot at Shreveport, La.?

Sorta, and for what it’s worth, Shreveport’s population is about 16 times more than Martinsville. Listen, we love Martinsville. But when you’re trying to lure big-market viewers and sponsors while competing with football season, it’s time to play hardball.

Michael Waltrip Racing is redefining the term “overcoming adversity.” First, it was all about getting two drivers into the Chase at Richmond. In the days that followed the regular-season finale, the team endured a firestorm of accusations of cheating and race manipulation. It not only cost Martin Truex Jr.’s place in the Chase, but cast a long shadow on the sport’s accountability.

Truex’s sponsor, NAPA, decided to move out after this season concludes. Waltrip Racing announced last week it would be a two-car team, with Truex apparently heading to Furniture Row Racing. The team said it would reduce its workforce by 15 percent in 2014 and the No. 56 will become an R&D car with Waltrip at the wheel.

Just when the team thought it had everything sorted out, Brian Vickers had to be pulled from the No. 55 car because of a blood clot found in his leg.

There’s no telling when he will be back for duty. So, what does Waltrip Racing have going for it? Co-owner Rob Kauffman is a billionaire. Yes, that eases some of the pain.

Speaking of big markets, $25 million for Gordo?

According to real-estate records, Jeff Gordon “flipped” his Manhattan condo for about a $15 million profit.

Bought it for $9.7 million in ’07, sold it recently for about $25 million. They’re not leaving Manhattan, he says … just moving across town. Green Acres will have to wait.

Godwin Kelly gives his take: “This is more of a minor irritation than a feud, but these little incidents are becoming a growing rash. Busch is bound to scratch that itch by Homestead.”

TALLADEGA REWIND

Junior talks about Danica’s popularity, Jeff’s turnaround Dale Earnhardt Jr. spoke to the media at Talladega Superspeedway and touched on a number of subjects, including Danica Patrick and Jeff Gordon.

You more than anybody else can relate to the whole popularity thing with Danica. Does NASCAR need her to be successful at some point in terms of her results?

“I think that she needs it more than NASCAR needs it. I think that, for her,

she wants it. She wants to be successful and strives to be successful and that is on her. That comes down to whether she can get it done or not, and time will tell. I don’t think that the sport wins or loses either way. Obviously … if she is successful, it’s a plus, but no matter what happens to any of us the sport goes on.

“The needle doesn’t move a whole lot depending on individuals. It’s really a sport of so many people and so many different drivers and so many different

personalities — you move one out and put another one in.”

What have you seen in Jeff Gordon that has allowed him to sort of turn it around this year?

“He is as determined as I’ve ever seen him. I’ve only spent a few years actually as a teammate, but I’ve known him for a long time. His determination and how he goes through the process of working a race weekend … being tenacious and trying to figure the car out and working

with his crew and utilizing practice — he puts in the effort, and the desire is definitely as strong as it’s always been as far as I can tell.

“They’re just trying to find that consistency, but yeah, he has the confidence that he is the best guy out there and wants to go out there and prove that every week. I see that in him, in his demeanor and his body language every week.”

An inside look at Ohio State football SAY WHAT?

RECRUITING UPDATE

1. How many Ohio State players have been the overall No. 1 pick in the NFL draft?

2. How many Penn State players have been the overall No. 1 pick in the NFL draft?

3. Where did Penn State coach Bill O’Brien play college football?

4. Why is Penn State’s stadium named Beaver Stadium?

“Well, we don’t huddle much.”

5. What year did Ohio State and Penn State play each other for the first time?

Answers: 1. Three (Tom Cousineau, Dan Wilkinson, Orlando Pace); 2. Two (Ki-Jana Carter, Courtney Brown); 3. Brown; 4. Named for a Civil War general; 5. 1912

— Ohio State receiver Devin Smith, when asked what was being said in the huddle when Ohio State was behind Iowa last Saturday.

Freshman defensive lineman Joey Bosa has been impressive for Ohio State, but some recruiting analysts are touting his younger brother, Nick Bosa, as maybe an even better prospect. The younger Bosa (Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas), a 6-3, 245-pound sophomore defensive lineman, already has offers from Ohio State and Boston College for their 2016 recruiting classes.

Five-star linebacker Raekwon McMillan (Hinesville, Ga.) is tentatively scheduled to visit Ohio State this Saturday night. Four star prospects wide receiver Trevion Thompson (Durham, N.C.), wide receiver Josh Malone (Gallatin, Tenn.) and defensive back Jamal Adams (Carrollton, Texas) also possibly could be at the Penn State game. All four are 2014 recruits.

Defensive back Mike Rogers (Smyrna, Ga.) has received an offer from Ohio State. He is an under-the-radar prospect who verbally committed to Central Florida earlier this year. He has more than 1,000 yards rushing as a running back and three interceptions as a defensive back.

On the field last weekend, OSU verbal commitment Terry McLaurin (Indianapolis Cathedral) returned a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown against Cincinnati Moeller, but the Crusaders won easily, 35-14. Malik Hooker (New Castle, Pa.) caught 5 passes for 117 yards and two of the catches were for touchdowns.

Penn State at No. 4 Ohio State, 8 p.m., ABC TDs). Tight end Jeff Heuerman and wide receiver Evan Spencer both have 15 catches.

Penn State’s Allen Robinson (43 catches, 705 yards, 5 TDs) is tied for second in the Big Ten for most receptions after catching 77 passes last season. Brandon Felder (22 catches, 2 TDs) is the other wide receiver. Tight ends Jesse James and Kyle Carter have combined for 28 catches.

Advantage: Penn State

< OFFENSIVE LINE Maybe the hardest thing to find in Ohio State football the last few weeks has been someone who has something bad to say about the Buckeyes’ offensive line. The line has played consistently well and has been especially strong in the second half of come-from-behind wins against Northwestern and Iowa.

Penn State guard John Urschel was first-team All-Big Ten last season. He already has a master’s degree in math and teaches a course at Penn State. The Nittany Lions rank 11th in the Big Ten in rushing (157 yards a game) compared to Ohio State’s No. 3 (279 yards a game).

Advantage: Ohio State

< DEFENSIVE LINE Statistically, Ohio State’s line was barely visible against Iowa with one tackle for loss and no lineman getting more than four tackles. More production here will be a point of emphasis for the Buckeyes.

Penn State defensive tackle DaQuan Jones leads the Big Ten in tackles for losses with 8.5. Deion Barnes, who had six sacks a year Don Speck | The Lima News ago, has struggled at times this season and lost his starting job for the Michigan Braxton Miller fakes a handoff to Carlos Hyde during Ohio State’s 34-24 win over game.

Defense needs new math COLUMBUS — Urban Meyer has used the word “alarming” to describe Ohio State’s defense — particularly its pass defense — three times in the last two weeks.

And he’s probably taking it better than a lot of OSU fans.

Defense is something that has been one of the foundations of Ohio State winning 10 or more games 14 times in the last 20 seasons and playing in three national championships games.

The Buckeyes have had nine defensive players selected in the first round of the NFL draft since 2000 and all but one of those players has been a defensive back or defensive lineman.

There are two things Ohio State fans do extremely well.

One is setting really high expectations. The other is worrying at the first sign those expectations might not be met.

There have been some disturbing problems defending the pass, which calls into question Ohio State’s ability to match up with its competitors for the national title. And no one in the defensive backfield is looking like the next NFL first-round draft choice from Ohio State.

But there is also the possibility that in this era of high-powered spread offenses and offense-friendly rules, the numbers that indicate a team is playing reasonably well on defense might have to be adjusted upward.

When Ohio State won the BCS national championship in 2002, only four schools nationally averaged more than 40 points a game — Boise State, Kansas State, Miami and Bowling Green in Meyer’s second year there.

This season, there are 17 teams averaging 40 points a game or more and two others are scoring 39.9.

In 2006 when Ohio State was BCS runner-up, 26 teams gave up fewer than 300 yards a game. This year, there are nine.

And Ohio State is in the top 15 in both scoring defense and overall defense this season. The Buckeyes are allowing 19.9 points a game and are giving up 333.1 yards a game.

Run From page 12 he said. “I knew we’d battle back. We’ve battled back several times this season in situations like that — and that’s what makes a team. I knew, win or lose, we’d battle to the end.”

He didn’t have time to be worried, to be honest.

Because Logan was already scoring the gametying goal a mere 18 seconds later, making it 3-3 and forcing overtime.

“That’s just not how we play,” Logan said when asked about how most teams’ heads would have sunk after a goal that late. “That’s not us. We’re a really good comeback team.”

And with 3:00 left in the overtime period, Logan brought a sudden end to the game. Sarah Colvin sent a cross in from the left side, and Logan — with a Warrior defender draped all over her back — stuck her leg out as she fell to the ground and redirected the ball into the net to win it.

“I was just trying to get any kind of touch on it,” Logan said.

It was the Devils’ first district title since the early 2000s. They reached the district level last season, losing to Indian Hill. They will now face Ross — a 2-1 winner in double overtime over Monroe — Tuesday at Lakota West.

“We lost in the district final last year, so this means a lot to us,” Logan said.

“We’re playing really well right now,” Baker said. “The girls all want the same thing, all the things we’ve been preaching all season long.”

And above all, they don’t want it to end.

The Red Devils (16-0-3) and Warriors (14-2-3) played to a 2-2 tie during the regular season and each won their respective Central Buckeye Conference divisions, and it became clear early in the second half that there was still some bad blood between the rivals.

Northwestern picked up the only score of the first half on a goal by Jensen Kleis, but the Devils put on the pressure early in the second half. And with 30:20 left in the game, Chelsea Clawson was taken out by a Warrior sliding tackle in the box, and the yellow cards began to fly — first on the player that had committed the foul, then on both the Warrior assistant and head coaches, one each, as they argued the call.

None of the yelling mattered, and Logan deposited the penalty kick in to even the score.

Tippecanoe kept the heat on, and with 16:42 to go, Megan Rittenhouse ripped a shot over the keeper’s head that slipped right through her outstretched hands, under the crossbar and in to give the Devils a 2-1 lead.

Roughly four minutes later, though, Kleis made a run down the left sideline off the ball, took a pass in stride, got behind the Devil defense and scored to even things up. And with 3:47 to play, Crystal Cruz was able to get a foot on the ball in a massive pile-up in front of the Tipp goal, and it trickled just inside the post for what seemed like a back-breaking goal and a 3-2 Northwestern lead.

Baker wasn’t concerned.

“I wasn’t real worried,”

in the first half, Lachey was in the right place at the right time.

Ashley Keller took a throw-in from Madeline Franklin down the right side and somehow got the ball through a Bethel player to Lachey, standing five yards from her.

“I was just getting ready to cross towards the goal to follow (a shot by Keller),” Lachey said.

“I saw the ball roll through (the Bethel girls legs). I don’t think she (Ashley Keller) meant to do that.”

Lachey instantly turned and rifled a shot into the upper right side of the net, well out of the Bethel keeper’s reach.

“It felt great (seeing the ball go into the net),” Lachey said.

It put Lehman up 1-0 and the Cavaliers just continued to build on that in the second half.

“That was a rip,” Lehman coach Tony Schroeder said of Lachey’s shot. “That gave us momentum going into the locker room.”

Just 5:32 into the second half, Keller made it 2-0.

She took a perfect thru ball from Jenna Kronenberger and hammered a shot at the net.

The keeper deflected it, but Keller followed for an easy shot into an empty net.

“That was a great ball by Jenna (Kronenberger) and Ashley (Keller) did a nice job,” Schneider said.

Lehman made it 3-0 at the 16:543 mark when Franklin, near the backline, did a beautiful touch to Katie Edwards for a goal.

“That was a really nice touch by Madeline (Franklin),” Schroeder said.

Jordi Emrick made it 4-0, taking a perfect corner kick by Marla Schroeder and heading it into the goal.

“We had been close on several of the corners,” Tony Schroeder said. “It was really well done by both players.”

Kassie Lee closed the scoring, outmaneuveing several Bellbrook defenders with some nifty moves dribbling and putting it into the net.

“That was a nice goal by Kassie (Lee),” Schroeder said.

And while Grace Frantz needed just four saves in recording the shutout, to Bethel’s credit, she was put to the fire immediately.

Bethel controlled the ball for the first four minutes and had a point-blank shot in the early going that Frantz was able to save.

“You have to give Bethel credit,” Schroeder said. “They came out with high intensity.

Once we settled down, we were fine.”

And while Lehman will enjoy the moment, the Cavaliers aren’t satisfied yet.

“We are four wins from our goal,” Lachey said.

And some more history.
