US braces for more violence Diplomatic missions put on high alert

An entirely new attitude

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration was caught by surprise by the ferocity of the Sept. 11 attack against the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the ambassador and three other Americans. Now it is bracing for another potential eruption of violent demonstrations in parts of the Muslim world after today’s weekly prayers — traditionally a time of protest in the Middle East and North Africa.

Angry demonstrations over an anti-Islam video already have occurred in Egypt and Yemen, and officials theorize that well-armed Libyan extremists hijacked a similar protest in Benghazi, where several Libyan security guards also were killed. The U.S. put all of its diplomatic missions overseas on high alert, and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered an explicit denunciation of the video as the administration sought to pre-empt fur-

ther turmoil at its embassies and consulates. “The United States government had absolutely nothing to do with this video,” she said before a meeting with the foreign minister of Morocco at the State Department. “We absolutely reject its content and message.” “To us, to me personally, this video is disgusting and reprehensible,” Clinton said. “It appears to have a deeply cynical purpose: to denigrate a great religion and to provoke rage.” U.S. officials said they suspect that the

WASHINGTON (AP) — Alarmed by the chronically weak U.S. economy, the Federal Reserve launched an aggressive new effort Thursday to boost the stock market and make borrowing cheaper for years to come. And it made clear it won’t stop there and is ready to try other stimulative measures if hiring doesn’t pick up. Stock prices rocketed up in approval.

attack at the Benghazi consulate, which had also been the target of an unsuccessful attack in June, may have been only tangentially related to the film. They also stressed there had been no advance warning or intelligence to suggest a threat in Libya that would warrant boosting security, even on the 11th anniversary of the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. “As we did with all of our missions overseas, in advance of the September 11 anniversary and as we do every year, we did evaluate the threat stream and we determined that the security at Benghazi was appropriate for what we knew,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said. The intelligence leading up to the attacks will be examined to “see if there was any way of forecasting this violence,” as in any violent incident, House Intelligence Committee member Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said in an interview Thursday. But he said the focus now “has to be on finding out who is responsible and bringing them to justice.” President Barack Obama, speaking a campaign event in Golden, Colo., also vowed that the perpetra-

tors would be punished. “I want people around the world to hear me,” he said. “To all those who would do us harm: No act of terror will go unpunished. I will not dim the light of the values that we proudly present to the rest of the world. No act of violence shakes the resolve of the United States of America.” As of Thursday morning, there was no intelligence indicating that what happened in Benghazi was planned, according to two U.S. officials briefed on the investigation into the attack. Intelligence officials said they believe it’s more likely that the attack was “opportunistic or spontaneous,” with militants taking advantage of the demonstration to launch the assault. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation publicly. There is also no evidence that the attack was tied to 9/11, one of the officials said. But the Libyan-based militant group Ansar al Sharia is the leading suspect for carrying out the violence, possibly with help from alQaida’s main African-based offshoot, Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb. The officials said it may be hard to determine definitively which group was responsible, because many mili-

tants are members of both. Libyan officials arrested an unspecified number of militants suspected of taking part in the attack and they were closely monitoring others to see whether they are linked to a group. Despite the belief that the militants who hit the consulate did so separately from the protests over the film, U.S. officials are deeply concerned that extremists may take advantage of non-violent demonstrations to copycat the Benghazi raid, or that otherwise peaceful protesters may be incited to attack because of the video, particularly on Friday. It’s virtually impossible to predict when a crowd might form and turn violent, according to retired U.S. Ambassador John Negroponte, who served as chief of mission at five posts, including Iraq, and is a former director of national intelligence. “These things can be mobilized on the spur of the moment, set off by a spark,” especially in places such as Egypt and Libya where the ruling strongmen have just fallen, Negroponte said Thursday. “When you get rid of authoritarian regimes, there’s little or no institutional framework left. …That’s why there’s disorder and chaos” that is so easily hijacked, he said.

The unemployment rate is 8.1 percent. And the Fed estimated Thursday that the rate will fall no lower than 7.6 percent in 2013. The Fed’s latest actions came a week after the European Central Bank announced its most ambitious plan yet to ease Europe’s financial crisis by buying unlimited amounts of government bonds to help countries manage their debts. With less than eight weeks until Election Day, the economy remains the top issue on most voters’ minds. Many Republicans have been critical of the Fed’s continued efforts to drive interest rates lower, saying they fear it could ignite inflation. Asked at his news conference whether the Fed considered the impact of its actions on the presidential election, Bernanke said: “We make our decisions based entirely on the state of the economy. … We just don’t take those factors into account.”

PERSPECTIVE

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” — First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Republican, Springfield, Mass., on new rules for auto fuel efficiency: You can’t please all of the people all of the time. But you can sometimes come awfully close. When you can please the big auto makers at the same time that you are making environmental groups happy, you must be doing something right. And if you do this with a cheer from big labor even while getting a green light from the state of California, which has at times been in the habit of making its own rules, then your plan must be pure magic. What’s making everyone so happy? The Environmental Protection Agency’s new rules on auto fuel efficiency. Is there anyone who doesn’t like the new standards, which were issued on Aug. 28? Oh, sure — Republicans and their presidential nominee, former Bay State Gov. Mitt Romney. But given that the new rules came out of the White House, this should come as no surprise. But the new standards, which would require auto fleets to average 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025, were OK with just about everyone else. It’s worth noting how far — and how fast — the nation has moved on this front. A mere five years ago lawmakers were debating whether it would be possible to require an average of 30 mpg by 2025. Compared with the new rules, they were talking small potatoes. Savings at the pump. More energy independence. A cleaner environment. Technological breakthroughs. These are just some of the reasons why the EPA’s new fuel-efficiency standards are such a winning proposition. Opponents’ arguments? They simply don’t like regulations. Thankfully, the more sensible side is carrying the day. The Knoxville (Tenn.) News Sentinel on national political conventions: National political conventions ain’t what they used to be. Once upon a time, they were events where deals were cut that made or broke careers, fights broke out and factions struggled for control of the party’s soul. The switch to a reliance on primaries and caucuses to select delegates pledged to particular candidates pretty much precludes suspense. Conventions have become coronations. Mitt Romney sewed up the Republican nomination long before Tropical Storm Isaac was named, much less threatened to swamp Tampa before turning toward Louisiana and growing into a hurricane. And there was never any doubt President Barack Obama would be the Democrats’ nominee. … Conventions used to be like carnivals; now they resemble infomercials. And their predictability is bipartisan. …Not only are the nominations a foregone conclusion, but the development of party platforms is an exercise in irrelevancy. The winner will rip out inconvenient platform planks at will. Conventions have become pep rallies. There is value in that to both parties — energizing party loyalists to sway undecided voters during the final push to Election Day could make a difference in a close race — but the value diminishes every four years. The Repository, Canton, Ohio, on the federal Amish trial: The trial of 16 Amish men and women accused of forcibly cutting the hair and beards of other Amish in southeast Ohio is attracting national and even international attention. It’s no wonder. Non-Amish always have been curious about, and perhaps a little envious of, the uncomplicated lifestyle of the Amish. Combine that interest with the craving for bread-and-circuses entertainment that’s so prevalent in the reality-show culture these days, and it’s not surprising that the federal trial in Cleveland has become an Internet sensation. Let’s hope some productive thoughts also pass through the minds of those who are following the courtroom drama, The trial also is intriguing because it raises so many questions about the role of government in individual lives. Where’s the line between religious freedom and intervention of the state, between private discipline and criminal abuse? Should hate-crime laws cover shame and paralyzing embarrassment as well as outright intimidation? It’s worth considering whether the widespread fascination with them and with this trial could be a window into important insights about our own lives.

Thank you for your support To the Editor: On Aug. 25, Cruizer’s Bar and Grill in Russia hosted its Second Annual Car Show to benefit Hospice of Miami County. Susan Hemm, Marketing and Development Coordinator for Hospice, was the grateful recipient of a $1600 donation. Hospice, being volunteer driven, uses benefits such as this to help maintain the structure that it takes to keep the quality of assistance for those who require it. With the help and support of our sponsors, Frenchtown Trailer, Midwest Radiator Service, Bensman’s Garage, Goubeaux Excavating, Eldora Speedway, and TWT Shirts, this event was a huge success. Our music was provided by DJ Tom, Tom Landsiedel, who also helped

announce the door prizes/silent auction winners, and the car show trophy recipients. The Trophies were provided by Lasting Impressions in Piqua and were awarded to the top three places and to the people’s choice. First place went to Keith Weisterheide for his 1970 Firebird Formula, second place went to John Ranly for his 1975 Camero, third place went to Don Borges for his Convertible Oldsmobile 442 and the people’s choice went to Buck Fiessinger for his 1956 Studebaker. Lori Tomlian, one of the owners of Cruizer’s, put a lot of time and effort into organizing the event and by obtaining many donations from numerous businesses in the surrounding areas. Those who donated were more than happy to be a part of this event and we hope they can help again next year knowing how important Hospice is to the com-

munity. Lori and Chris Tomlian and Steve and Barb Young, owners of Cruizer’s, would like to thank those who participated by bringing their vehicles to show and to those who donated their time and/or money to Hospice. We would also like to thank Chelsea Morris, Jennifer Clark and Nick Gorske, relatives of Chris and Lori Tomlian, for traveling four hours to help with this event and hope they can make it back to help again next year. Thanks to Josh Miller, the manager of Cruizer’s, and to the wonderful staff who worked so diligently to kept things running smoothly. We at Cruizer’s are looking forward to continuing the tradition for years to come by hosting more car shows to benefit Hospice in the future.

DOONESBURY

Hey, miscalculations happen all the time More than four years ago, I took this desk job at a small town newspaper for one reason, and one reason only. I thought I could avoid math forever. Well kids, your math teachers were all right about one thing. You can’t avoid numbers. No matter how hard you try. And believe me; I try really, really hard. Now one aspect of the number world I don’t really mind is money math. You either got it or you don’t. Am I right? My philosophy is fairly simple. Don’t spend more than you have and it’ll be gravy. Now, I’m from the generation that banks online. I’ve never ever recorded anything in a checkbook. Most of you are gasping and clutching your hearts, I know it. Mom? Breathe. It goes in. It goes right back out. Some days the cash flow is more like a flood. I check my account almost daily, sometimes several times a day. So when I received a friendly call from the banking institution I’ve had since I was a baby, I wasn’t pleased. I don’t have a “banker.” Heck, I don’t even like walking in to a

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist bank. So I reluctantly made the appointment and was greeted last week by a very friendly fellow. In his introductions, he kindly noted some “slight changes” to their selections of checking accounts, He said slight changes, and all I noticed were “charges.” “Sir, I may write for a living, but I can do the math and this isn’t going to work out,” I said after the sales pitch. In my head, I quickly added up the “service charges” also known as “fees” and while the amount may be minute to some, I quickly rattled off to the guy what those monthly charges would mean to my small household. “That’s two gallons of gas, a McDonald’s Happy Meal, and added up over a year, that’s a full-sized LEGO set for

Christmas,” I said feeling my throat tighten. My throat always gets tight when I do math quickly in my head. Well, math in general makes me cry, fees always make me cry. You see, despite never balancing a checkbook a day in my life, I’ve never bounced a check. I’m like many of you out there: I hate owing money to people (and by people I mean my dad), places and things. So Buddy the Banker pointed to a few accounts and said as long as I had certain amount in those accounts, I’d be OK. The funny thing about money when you don’t really have a whole bunch just sitting around that it doesn’t, well, sit around. Well, long enough to earn 54 cents. Yee haw! Buddy the Banker explained a few loop holes I could do to avoid these fees, but I explained to him how these were uncertain times especially for a gal like me in a place like this. I understand the banking industry shot themselves in the foot, but I couldn’t help but think: I didn’t buy a house. I didn’t default after I signed up for more than I could afford. I wasn’t

a part of this mess. I do understand that banks are a business and the times of free checking are gone. Yet, getting nickel and dimed for someone else’s mistakes doesn’t really sit well with me, either. The longer I sat there, the angrier I became. I did everything right. I played by the rules. So I did what every irritated customer does when they feel nailed to the wall. I smiled and pointed to the building across the street and said I’d gladly take my tiny little checking account and deposit my funds with them from now on. The man looked over his shoulder at their competitor and we came to “an understanding.” You see, he thought I meant I would take my business to a nonprofit credit union. But he was wrong. I was really pointing to the grocery store next to the credit union where I would purchase a metal coffee can. But hey, miscalculations happen all the time.

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM

AP MOVIE REVIEWS • “Arbitrageâ€? — Greed is good, until it isn’t anymore, in this guilty-pleasure thriller for these tough economic times. In directing his first feature, writer and documentarian Nicholas Jarecki shows great command of tone a balance of sex, danger and manipulation with some insiderish business talk and a healthy sprinkling of dark humor to break up the tension. His film is well-cast and strongly acted, and while it couldn’t be more relevant, it also recalls the decadence of 1980s Wall Street, shot in 35mm as it is, with a synth-heavy score. “Arbitrageâ€? is a lurid look at a lavish lifestyle that allows us to cluck disapprovingly while still vicariously enjoying its luxurious trappings. Richard Gere stars as billionaire hedge-fund magnate Robert Miller. As he turns 60, Robert would seem to have it all yet he always wants more, and feels emboldened by the different set of rules and morals that seems to apply in his rarefied world. So he “borrowsâ€? $417 million from a fellow tycoon to cover a hole in his portfolio and make his company look as stable as possible as it’s about to be acquired by a bank. And despite the loyalty and support of his smart, beautiful wife (Susan Sarandon), he has a hot (and hot-headed) French mistress on the side (former Victoria’s Secret model Laetitia Casta) who runs in stylish, hardpartying art circles. Both these schemes explode in his face over the course of a few fateful days. Tim Roth, Brit Marling and Nate Parker co-star. R for language, brief violent images and drug use. 100 minutes. Three stars out of four. • “The Masterâ€? — Viewers hoping for a juicy expose of the supersecretive Church of Scientology might want to adjust their expectations just a tad. Writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson has acknowledged that the cult leader of the film’s title played with great bluster and bravado by Philip Seymour Hoffman, one of his longtime players was inspired by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. And certain key phrases and ideas that are tenets of the church do show up in the film. And yet, the church or rather, “The Cause,â€? as it’s known here emerges relatively unscathed. Hoffman’s Lancaster Dodd, whom his followers refer to as “Master,â€? is commanding and calculating and sometimes even cruel, but the bond he forges with a wayward Joaquin Phoenix reveals his inquisitiveness, his generosity of spirit and a love that cannot be defined, teetering as it does between the paternal and the homoerotic. Meanwhile, Phoenix’s character, the troubled, volatile and often inebriated Freddie Quell, seems at his happiest once he’s safely ensconced within the group. But “The Masterâ€? isn’t interested in anything so clear-cut as joy vs. misery. It’s about the way people’s lives intersect, if only briefly and perhaps without a satisfying sense of closure. Anderson, long a master himself of technique and tone, has created a startling, stunningly gorgeous film shot in lushly vibrant 65mm, with powerful performances all around and impeccable production design. But it’s also his most ambitious film yet quite a feat following the sprawling “Magnoliaâ€? and the operatic “There Will Be Bloodâ€? in that it’s more impressionistic and less adherent to a tidy three-act structure. R for sexual content, graphic nudity and language. 137 minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

Underwood aims to leave fans ‘Blown Away’

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — It’s getting harder and harder for Carrie Underwood to leave home. She’s starting the 50plus-date U.S. leg of her “Blown Away� tour Friday in Manchester, N.H., and that means months and months away from her husband, Mike Fisher, a star with the NHL’s Nashville Predators. The two spent much of their early relationship apart, but now that they’ve been together since Fisher moved from Ottawa, Canada, to Nashville, walking out the door has become somewhat more traumatic though the couple got more time together because of ongoing NHL labor negotiations. “I was like is it wrong to hope for a little bit of a walkout?� Underwood joked. “I’m not sure. I’m feeling kind of happy that they’re still in negotiations. Sorry. We got used to being apart when he lived in Ottawa. Before he moved to Nashville we dated that way and our first half-a-year of marriage at least was spent that way. It’s just been so cool. He’s been here a lot.� Now it’s Underwood’s turn to leave. She spoke with The Associated Press about her tour, her growing popularity overseas and her transition into the Twitter world. AP: You already started the new tour overseas. What was the response like? Underwood: When we went to London and Australia they knew every single solitary word to every single song. And I was pleased, yeah. Because I wouldn’t have been played on the radio as much as I would be over here. So if they went to that show, they probably went out and bought that album to make sure that they knew everything that there was to know. It’s really cool.

Nintendo said the latest game in its wildly popular Mario franchise, “New Super Mario Bros. U,� will be available when the new console launches. It will include new ways to play that use the GamePad.

In this Aug. 15, file photo, Carrie Underwood performs on NBC’s “Today� show in New York. Underwood starts the 50-plus-date U.S. leg of her “Blown Away� tour Friday. them back to me is really special. AP: On your last tour you flew over the crowd in a pickup truck. How do you top that? Underwood: (It will be) definitely spectacular, kind of producing the same results. But I really love to get to the back of arenas. On the stage you can see the first few rows, but then after that it’s just kind of noise. And being able to put faces to an audience has been really cool. So that was important to me to be able to do something like that

again. AP: Were you ever that fan in the back of the arena? Underwood: Way back when (laughs) when I was going to concerts and spending my allowance money to be able to go. I was in the back and it would have been really cool for someone to pull out a gag like that and just to be a little closer and you’re not just watching them on the screens by the side of the stage. You can make out facial features and stuff like that for yourself in person.

Age of country music at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 22 at the Tipp Roller Mill Theater. The band is a summertime tradition in southwest Ohio, playing and calling the barn dances at Carriage Hill MetroPark in Huber Heights for almost four decades. The band is comprised of Barb Kuhns and Linda Scutt on twin fiddles, Tom Duffee playing banjo, Doug Smith on guitar and dobro and Al Turnbull on bass fiddle. The Corndrinkers have recorded two albums, “The Corndrinkers� and “Corndrinkers Still.� Joining the Corndrinkers for this performance will be Appalachian-style clog and step-dancer Beth Wright. The theater is located at 225 E. Main St. in Tipp City. Admission is $7 for adults and $4 for students K-12. For more information, call (937) 667-3696.

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased from the Small Town Singers, c/o Sandra Lutz, 936 Crestview Drive, Troy, Ohio 45373. Checks should be made payable to Steve Chambers. • WEST MILTON – Another gospel show by the Small Town Singers kicks off at 2 p.m. Sept. 30 at Sarver’s Barn Overlook Park. Originally from Willard, Ohio, the group performs at many events in the north coast region of Ohio. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased from the Small Town Singers, care of Sandra Lutz, 936 Crestview Drive, Troy, OH 45373. Checks should be made payable to Steve Chambers.

Singers coming to county • TROY — The Small Town Singers of Willard are coming to Troy to perform an oldies/doowop show at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 29 at the Staunton Grange, 1530 N. Market St. The group performs at many events in the north coast region of Ohio. The shows run about one and a half hours.

Melody Men to take Troy stage TROY — The 50-member Melody Men Chorus, a barbershop-style harmony, will perform “The Church of What’s Up With That?� revival at 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Oct. 6 at Troy High School auditorium. Also performing are 2012 international seniors quartet champions Rusty Pipes. Ticket prices are $12 in advance, $15 at the door, $10 each for a group of 10 or more and $5 for students.

It’s important to me to make sure everybody has a great show, whether you’re in the front or whether you’re in the back. AP: Were you aiming for a certain feel for this concert tour? Underwood: Everything is very dramatic. I feel like the album, the “Blown Away� album, was really visual, really dramatic and we definitely carry that into the show. We have obviously our slower moments. It can’t be tense and dramatic all the time. It really is a little spectacle. We have a lot of weather-related things going on in the show. We really start off kind of heavy and a bit tumultuous. We have a lot of beautiful screens behind me and a lot of beautiful environments we can make on the stage that tell a story. It’s kind of like watching a movie and you’re at the concert. AP: You recently joined Twitter after years of resisting. How do you like it? Underwood: I kind of wish I was a better Twitterer (laughs). I do think it’s such a useful tool and it allows us to just be able to get information straight from the horse’s mouth. It’s really great sometimes. And it’s fun. I feel like some people that I know who are super into it are REALLY into it, and I don’t know if I want to be quite like that. But it’s good, so far. AP: Have there been any negatives that you were worried about? Underwood: It’s been really relatively good so far. No complaints or anything like that. There’s always going to be people that don’t like you or whatever. If you’re on Twitter or you’re on Facebook, you’re going to get it no matter what you do. So I feel like I’ve gotten better over the years, definitely better with handling stuff like that. That’s what the block button is for, right?

Tickets for the special reserved are priced at $17. Call (937) 667-6750 to purchase.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Please try your best to be patient with friend Dear Annie: I am a teenager in high school with two close friends, "Emma" and "Vienna." Emma was recently diagnosed with OCD and bipolar disorder. Ever since the diagnosis, there have been many conflicts. Emma is now really sensitive, and if Vienna or I say anything even mildly offensive, she gets super-angry. This past summer, we all worked at a local kids' camp. When one of the instructors joked around, Emma took it seriously and became upset. She then talked with the instructor and his boss. All I know is that it didn't end well, and Emma quit. I will often get a call from Emma saying she is lonely and needs someone to talk to. She likes to reminisce, regretting things she said and did in the past. I try to comfort her by keeping her company. I have just started a new high school and am no longer with Emma and Vienna. Emma insists that I will ditch them for new friends, making them both feel like they have done something wrong. Vienna and I know we can't begin to understand what it's like to have both OCD and bipolar disorder, but we can't live like this. We are always worrying about Emma and don't know what to do. — A Worried Friend Dear Friend: Those with bipolar disorder often have periods of depression. If Emma also has OCD, she may become fixated on certain negative thoughts during these times. While you can be reassuring and supportive, there is only so much you can do to combat Emma's innate doubts. We trust that her parents are making sure that she is getting appropriate medical care. Please try to be patient with her, but understand that not all friendships survive high school. Dear Annie: I know you've covered this topic before, but please do it again. I work in a small office. One person douses herself in perfume. It makes my eyes water and my nose run, and sometimes I have sneezing fits. Everyone comments about it behind her back, but no one will bring it up to her face, although I have casually mentioned it to her in conversation a few times. Why don't people understand that the workplace is not the place to overdo the strong scents? They should save it for their husbands or boyfriends at home. Years ago, my doctor told me he had a patient who was so sensitive to scents that she had an allergic attack and died — right in the hospital. My doctor now makes his employees sign a letter of agreement not to wear any type of cologne or perfume to work, or it could be grounds for dismissal. Please tell these people that although they may believe they smell great, they actually reek. — Suffocating in Louisville Dear Suffocating: Some folks have a diminished sense of smell and do not realize how strong their perfume is. Those who insist on wearing a scent should remember that a drop is sufficient. And with so many folks suffering from allergies these days, one really must be careful. If you have supervisors or a human resources department, please ask whether a notice can go out suggesting that employees not wear perfumes. Otherwise, approach your coworker and say, "I'm sure you don't realize how overpowering your cologne is. I have terrible allergies and am very sensitive. Could you please not wear it at the office?" Dear Annie: You printed responses to the letter from "Speechless in Omaha," whose friend never stopped talking. When I read the original letter, I recognized myself. I am a 90-yearold woman who lives alone. My health is not the best, and sometimes there are weeks when I speak to no one. It's a lonely life. One day, it suddenly dawned on me that I was doing all of the talking when out with friends. Now I make sure that doesn't happen. Perhaps the friend does not realize what she is doing. — A Lonely Great-Aunt Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Here are a few hints for staying within the limits Dear Readers: Smartphones and tablet computers are almost appendages to many people today. Most people have a limited data plan, and it can be easy to “run over,” which really adds up to big bucks! Here is what uses the most data on your smartphones and tablets: • Streaming movies through an Internet-based company. • Streaming music through an Internet-radio application. • Games, especially ones that require an Internet connection or that run ads. • Uploading photos, etc., to social-media sites.

Hints from Heloise Columnist If you want to do these things, wait until you are able to connect to a wireless network. Many places offer free wireless, like restaurants and coffee shops. If you are continually going over your allotted data, consider limiting your use of the above applications, or change

your data plan. — Heloise REUSE Dear Heloise: Whenever I get something in a large cardboard box, I save the box and make it into something fun for my daughter. I have made the boxes into mailboxes for her to practice writing letters and mailing them. I made one into a car, and we had a “drive-in” movie night in the living room. I decorated it and stapled paper plates to the side to look like tires. We made popcorn, and she sat in her “car” and watched a movie. — Allie in Pennsylvania TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: Now that

we’re retired, we travel more often. I’ve learned two helpful tips: 1. Before loading the car, move the seats back as far as possible. Passengers can then adjust the seats for legroom comfort and reclining during the trip. 2. Some motels and hotels have night lights, but most don’t. Even when I bring my own, there’s often no electrical outlet in the toilet area. I bring battery-powered tea lights, and they provide a nice glow. There’s no need to turn on a bright light. — Paula in Colorado Springs, Colo.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, Sept. 15, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The New Moon today is the perfect time to think about how to be more efficient at work and more productive in your daily tasks. And what can you do to improve your health? TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) We all need to balance play with work, but nowadays, everyone works too hard. Do you give yourself enough time to play or express your creativity? GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today’s New Moon is your best chance all year to think about how to improve relationships with family members. And what can you do to improve where you live? CANCER (June 21 to July 22) We are gregarious creatures. We especially need to communicate with each other. How clear are you in your communication with others? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) What can you do to improve your money scene? Quite likely, you have to learn to live within the boundaries of your earnings. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) The only New Moon in your sign all year is taking place today. Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your image. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is an ideal day to get in touch with your spiritual beliefs. After all, in the last analysis, your belief system is the core of what really guides you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Friendships are important. Today’s New Moon urges you to think about your friends. Do you hang out with quality people? If you want more friends, be friendly!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) It’s a strain on your peace of mind to have too many loose details with insurance matters, taxes, debt and inheritances. What can you do to reduce these and to promote greater peace of mind? PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Today’s New Moon is the only New Moon opposite your sign all year. This is your chance to think about how you can improve your closest friendships and partnerships. YOU BORN TODAY You often are shy when young; however, when older, this disappears and you become quite expansive! You like to carve out your own niche in the world and become familiar with it. You enjoy life fully, and you like the wealth to be able to do so. In the year ahead, friendships and partnerships will be a strong focus for you.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, Sept. 14, the 258th day of 2012. There are 108 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key was moved to write a poem after witnessing how an American flag flying over Maryland’s Fort McHenry withstood a night of British bombardment during the War of 1812; the poem, “Defence of Fort McHenry,” later became the words to “The Star-Spangled Banner.” On this date: • In 1712, Italian-born French astronomer Gian Domenico Cassini, discoverer of four of Saturn’s

moons, died in Paris. • In 1812, Napoleon Bonaparte’s troops entered Moscow following the Battle of Borodino to find the Russian city largely abandoned and parts set ablaze. • In 1861, the first naval engagement of the Civil War took place as the USS Colorado attacked and sank the Confederate private schooner Judah off Pensacola, Fla. • In 1901, President William McKinley died in Buffalo, N.Y., of gunshot wounds inflicted by an assassin. Vice President Theodore Roosevelt succeeded him. • In 1927, modern dance pio-

neer Isadora Duncan died in Nice (nees), France, when her scarf became entangled in a wheel of the sports car she was riding in. • In 1972, the family drama “The Waltons” premiered on CBS. • In 1982, Princess Grace of Monaco, formerly actress Grace Kelly, died at age 52 of injuries from a car crash the day before. • Today’s Birthdays: Actor Sam Neill is 65. Singer Jon “Bowzer” Bauman (Sha Na Na) is 65. Actress Melissa Leo is 52. Actress Faith Ford is 48. Actorwriter-director-producer Tyler Perry is 43. Rapper Nas is 39.

Guatemala volcano erupts outside tourist center

Men place sandbags to divert water in a neighborhood after a nearby dike breached, gushing water into businesses and homes in Santa Clara, Utah. Officials estimated 25 to 30 homes had suffered significant damage.

Dike break causes $2M in damages SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Officials in southern Utah estimate floodwaters from a broken dike caused more than $2 million in damages to infrastructure, including roads and sidewalks and costs to rebuild the structure. The dike in Santa Clara along a retention pond broke open Tuesday after heavy morning rains, sending a deluge of water into downtown. Damage to infrastructure, including costs to repair the dike, will likely exceed $2.8 million, Mayor Rick Rosenberg said. Rosenberg also said that 61 homes and 16 businesses were damaged as floodwaters rushed through the town, swamping nearly four square blocks and forcing evacuations. The dike had last been inspected by state officials in April, Rosenberg said. They found it generally “in good condition and well maintained,”

according to the report. No immediate action was required. The earthen dike was completed in 1919, according to the state Division of Water Rights, but the mayor said it was in good shape. He blamed the failure on what he called a “more than a hundred-year event.” “It came so fast, and a lot of debris was hitting the upstream side of the dike,” City Manager Edward Dickie said. Officials are hoping to receive federal disaster assistance. “We’re going to keep pushing for it,” Dickie said, noting the entire dike must be rebuilt. Officials warned residents to evacuate the area after noticing the dike appeared to be close to breaching. Chunks of the mud walls began breaking apart soon after, sending a several-foot-high wall of water through town.

“The potential could have been that somebody could have really been hurt,” said David Marble, Utah’s assistant engineer for dam safety. Had the dike failed “without that notification, somebody, I think, could have really been in danger,” Marble added. Meanwhile, hundreds of volunteers from around the state continued to help residents and business owners clean up the mud and debris left in the flood’s aftermath. “It’s just so sad,” said Janelle Kenworthy, who came over from nearby St. George. “It’s nice to help people out.” Some houses saw entire floors gutted by the deluge. The home of Jennifer Redfearn’s parents was one of them. “It’s a lot of memories,” Redfearn said. “It’s devastating to watch my family suffering like this.”

ESCUINTLA, Guatemala (AP) — A long-simmering volcano exploded with a series of powerful eruptions outside one of Guatemala’s most famous tourist attractions on Thursday, hurling thick clouds of ash nearly two miles (three kilometers) high, spewing rivers of lava down its flanks and prompting evacuation orders for more than 33,000 people from surrounding communities. Guatemala’s head of emergency evacuations, Sergio Cabanas, said the evacuees were ordered to leave some 17 villages around the Volcan del Fuego, which sits about six miles southwest (16 kilometers) from the colonial city of Antigua, home to 45,000 people. The ash was blowing south-southeast and authorities said the tourist center of the country was not currently in danger, although they expected the eruption to last for at least 12 more hours. Hundreds of cars, trucks and buses, blanketed with charcoal grey cash, sped away from the volcano along the a two-lane paved highway toward Guatemala City. Dozens of people crammed into the backs of trucks. Thick clouds of ash reduced visibility to less than 10 feet in the area of sugarcane fields surrounding the volcano. The elderly, women and children filled old school buses and ambulances that carried them from the area. The agency said lava rolled nearly 2,000 feet (600 meters) down slopes billowing with ash around the Volcan del Fuego, a 12,346foot-high (3,763-meter-high) volcano whose name translates as “Volcano of Fire.” “A paroxysm of an eruption is taking place, a great volcanic eruption, with strong explosions and columns of ash,” said Gustavo Chicna, a volcanolo-

gist with the National Institute of Seismology, Vulcanology, Meteorology and Hydrology. He said cinders spewing from the volcano were settling a halfinch thick in some places. He said extremely hot gases were also rolling down the sides of the volcano, which was almost entirely wreathed in ash and smoke. The emergency agency warned that flights through the area could be affected. There was a red alert, the highest level, south and southeast of the mountain, where, Chicna said, “it’s almost in total darkness.” He said ash was landing as far as 50 miles (80 kilometers) south of the volcano. By Thursday evening, the ash plume had decreased to a little more than a mile high, partly due to rain, which diminished the potential risk to aviation, said Jorge Giron, a government volcanologist. He said ash still continued to fall heavily, however, and advised residents near the volcano but outside evacuation zones to clean their water systems before using them, and not leave their homes because of potential health effects from the ash. He said a red alert would be in effect until 4 a.m. local time. Teresa Marroquin, disaster coordinator for the Guatemalan Red Cross, said the organization had set up 10 emergency shelters and was sending hygiene kits and water. “There are lots of respiratory problems and eye problems,” she said. Many of those living around the volcano are indigenous Kakchikeles people who live in relatively poor and isolated communities, and authorities said they expected to encounter difficulties in evacuating all the affected people from the area.

Covington-Bradford matchup carries lots of weight BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@tdnpublishing.com

BRADFORD

Perennial Cross County Conference power Covington knows better than to overlook Bradford. Even if it’s been a very onesided rivalry throughout the years. “Their kids right now, those were the eighth-graders that won the conference. They’re talented, and they’ve played a lot of football together,” Covington coach Dave Miller said. “And they believe in themselves and each other.” So when the Buccaneers make the short trip down the street to take on the Railroaders in a matchup of 3-0 teams, there will be a different feeling and atmosphere around the game than there has been for a long, long time. The last time the two teams met as fellow unbeatens was fairly recently — 2010, in fact. Covington won that game 56-22, and Bradford — which was coming off of one of many 1-9 seasons at the time — went on to finish the year 5-5, a feat the Railroader matched last season, as well. “In 2010, we were both 2-0,” Bradford coach Curtis Enis said.

THE BLITZ: ONLINE EDITION Don’t forget to go to www.troydailynews.com and look under the “Sports Highlights” section for the latest edition of the TDN staff’s “The Blitz: Online Edition” video discussion show each week on Thursday or Friday before heading out to that week’s games. “We’re not looking at records or implications or anything. We’re looking at it as a good football game. Covington always plays well, and the kids want to compete.” “The kids are pretty excited,” Miller said. “The two schools are separated by about six miles, Bradford is playing well right now. Knowing these kids, growing up with them their whole lives, our kids are excited for the game.” And the Railroaders also bring to the table a potential recordbreaking offensive threat in running back James Canan. Canan officially ran for 455 yards and seven touchdowns in

STAFF FILE PHOTO/ANTHONY WEBER

Bradford’s James Canan (41) stiff-arms a Bethel defender out of his way during a game earlier this season. Canan needs only 17 yards to reach the 1,000-yard mark — in Week 4 of the season. Bradford’s 61-41 slugfest victory over National Trail last week, and he led the Railroaders to their first win in years over the Bethel Bees with 334 yards and three scores. On the season so far, he has 983 yards and 15 touchdowns — giving him the potential to cross the 1,000-yard mark tonight in Week 4. “He runs extremely hard, and he’s a great kid in every way,” Miller said. “But Bradford is solid in other places, too. Their quar-

WEEK 4

MIAMI COUNTY LEADERS INDIAN LAKE (1-2) at TIPPECANOE (3-0): Tippecanoe got its toughest test of the season last week against rival Milton-Union, and — despite some hangups in the first half — passed with flying colors. In fact, that game may be the last time the Red Devils will truly be pushed until the first week of the postseason. Don’t tell that to coach Charlie Burgbacher, though — he wants to make sure his Devils remain focused and don’t look past any opponent on any given week. That’ll be particularly tough this week with Indian Lake coming to town. After winning its first three games by a combined 144-7 score, look for the Devils to add another blowout to their playoff resume. MILTON-UNION (2-1) at BELLBROOK (1-2): Milton-Union is not going to be happy tonight. After missing numerous chances to get an early edge on rival Tippecanoe and finally running out of gas in a 27-0 loss — its first of the season — the still-very-dangerous Bulldogs will be looking to show that they haven’t gone anywhere. Bellbrook will be the unfortunate team lining up on the opposite side of the field. A few years ago, this game was a Southwestern Buckeye League Southwestern Division rivalry, but since the Bulldogs have moved to the Buckeye Division, the Golden Eagles have hit hard times. They’ll need some of that old magic to keep up with the ’Dogs. MIAMI EAST (2-1, 2-0) at MISSISSINAWA VALLEY (0-3, 0-2): “A meat grinder.” That’s how Miami East coach Max Current referred to the Vikings’ next four games — the ones that come after tonight. With Bradford, Bethel, Covington and Tri-County North all in a row, Miami East will get a tour of all of the CCC’s contenders in addition to a few typicallytough inter-county rivalry games. Before that, tough, is tonight’s game against Mississinawa Valley — which has lost 18 straight, went 1-9 two years ago and 0-10 last year. This will be a game that the Vikings use to get a little seasoning before diving into the meat grinder. TRI-COUNTY NORTH (2-1, 2-0) at BETHEL (1-2, 0-2): There are no breaks on the road through the Cross County Conference — a lesson the Bethel Bees are learning the hard way. In Week 2, Bethel suffered a narrow loss to Bradford, then last weekend, the Bees were beaten 55-0 by Covington. Next up, Bethel hosts Tri-County North, who was the CCC runner-up last season — and is currently 2-0 in the conference. The Bees are still relatively young and still learning new coach Kevin Finfrock’s systems, but the experience they’re getting will help in the future. LEHMAN (1-2, 0-0) at FT. LORAMIE (2-1, 0-0): For the first two weeks of the season, Lehman’s offense hadn’t been present. Still, the Lehman Cavaliers got into the “Win” column last weekend, scoring twice in the final nine minutes of the game to secure a 21-14 victory against Indian Lake. Now this week, Lehman is looking to get another quality win against a good opponent on the road against Ft. Loramie, which has a 2-1 record through three weeks. BEAVERCREEK (1-2) at PIQUA (2-1): The Piqua Indians appear to be on the right track after a 35-7 victory against Lima Senior last weekend, which put the Indians at 2-1 on the season. The Indian passing attack got going in the win as QB Justice Young and WR Tate Honeycutt proved to be a lethal combination. But with a dangerous Beavercreek team — which lost a close game to Hilliard Davidson 14-13 last Friday — coming to town Friday, Piqua must be ready to go.

terback, their offensive line, their defense — they’ve got a good football team over there. “We can’t key on one kid — you make mistakes when you do that. Obviously, we’re aware of him, but they’ve got other kids that can hurt you, too.” Faced with all of that, the Buccaneers know better than to change what has worked for them over the years. “We’re approaching things the same as we do each week,” Miller

said. “This game feels a little more special — there’s a lot of familiarity between the teams. We’ve got to play team defense — if their kids get out in the open field, it could get interesting. So we’ve got to get to them before that happens.” Covington’s offense presents challenges of its own, too, with its vaunted triple option attack. The Buccs broke their team rushing record in one game earlier this season, and they have a number of players that can score from anywhere on the field at any time. “We’ve got a few of that kind of kid, too, and it all starts up front,” Miller said. “Our offensive line does a nice job, and that’s the key to any game. You’ve got to win the battle up front.” “Coach Miller always has his kids ready to go,” Enis said. “They’re very disciplined in what they do, so we will have to be disciplined in what we do. Just like any other week, we’ve got to go out, play football and have fun.” The winner will become the frontrunner in the CCC, with Miami East and Tri-County North also boasting 2-0 conference records heading into tonight. But in the CCC, no one can overlook anyone else.

Bulldogs win 5th straight Staff Reports CASSTOWN — Even with another Cross County Conference sweep, Miami East coach John Cash would like to see some tweaks made. The Vikings (9-0, 5-0) cruised through the first two games 25-7 and 25-4 against Arcanum Thursday, closing it out with a 25-15 effort in the third game. “Overall, the first two sets were solid.

UConn coach Calhoun retires

Shurmur’s audition

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — As Jim Calhoun stood in his office at Gampel Pavilion, waiting for his final news conference as Connecticut’s basketball coach, Pat Calhoun turned to her husband and gave him one final piece of advice. “Don’t change your mind,” she said. Calhoun had stayed on at UConn through cancer and a recruiting scandal. He refused to retire after winning a third national championship in 2011 because he didn’t want a new coach to serve his NCAA suspension. He came back again to finish last season after another absence, this one for spinal surgery. But on Thursday he finally retired on his own terms, with a hand-picked successor and no apologies. “I never, ever, ever said that I was mistake free,” Calhoun said. “But I was always trying to do the right thing. It didn’t always work that way, but I was always trying to do the right thing.” The 70-year-old Hall of Famer, on crutches after breaking a hip last month, made the

announcement on the court in Storrs where he racked up many of his 873 total wins. He thanked everyone associated with the Huskies program administrators, players, fans and his family for his success, and team’s played down both his health problems and troubles with the NCAA. “There have been some bumps in the road,” he said. “But we are headed in the right direction.” Calhoun will take a transition appointment through next spring as a special assistant to athletic director Warde Manuel. When fully retired, he will become head coach emeritus. Calhoun has been slowed repeatedly by illness and accidents in recent years, including the fractured hip. He said the injury didn’t cause him to retire, but gave him time to reflect on whether this would be a good time to leave. “As I looked at everything. So many things are in place for us to even go farther that we have already,” he said. “So I thought it was an excellent time.”

Ryu, Kang share British lead HOYLAKE, England (AP) — So Yeon Ryu won the U.S. Women’s Open last summer in Colorado and backed it up with a victory last month in the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic. The 22-year-old South Korean player made another big statement Thursday at Royal Liverpoool in her Women’s British Open debut, shooting a 2-under 70 for a share of the firstround lead with Haeji Kang. “After I won (in Toledo), I was a little more relieved and that helped me a lot,” Ryu said. “How can I say, even when I was winning the U.S. Women’s Open, a lot of people said it might be just one tournament or just a dark horse like that. But after I won the Toledo championship, I broke that.” Coming off a victory last week in a Korean LPGA event, Ryu had five birdies and two bogeys in

relatively calm conditions on the difficult links course. “This is my first time played in England, so I never played this type of golf course,” Ryu said. “It’s really tough, but fun. Always the first experience, really fun and a little tough, but I want to enjoy this type of golf course. “Actually, Tuesday and Wednesday was so bad, so today feels like a really great weather. But you know, in Korea it was a little really strong wind, and a little different from this course. This wind might not be a bad wind. I think today the weather was really great.” The 2-under leading score is the highest in the first round since the tournament became a major in 2002, in relatively calm conditions. The 21-year-old Kang, also from South Korea, had six birdies, two bogeys and a double bogey.

Browns coach more confident in second season BEREA (AP) — As Browns coach Pat Shurmur spoke to the media following Sunday’s 17-16 loss to Philadelphia, an interested observer slipped into the back of the room. Incoming owner Jimmy Haslam III took a seat. And although he didn’t ask Shurmur a question, Haslam’s presence spoke volumes. The new boss is already working. It remains to be seen if that’s good or bad news for Shurmur, who went 4-12 in his first season in Cleveland. But it’s safe to assume that Haslam, the truck-stop magnate and former minority owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers who bought the Browns for $1 billion, will be examining his new investment very closely over the next few months. For Shurmur, it’s a 16week audition to keep his job. “I really like Jimmy, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know him,” Shurmur said, “and I know Jimmy wants to win.” Shurmur doesn’t have time to worry about his future beyond Sunday’s game at Cincinnati. With a young roster that includes 15 rookies, including the starting quarterback, running back, right offensive tackle and a defensive tackle, Shurmur’s primary objective is to get his team ready to play a team looking to bounce back from a drubbing at Baltimore on Monday. A year ago, the Browns opened with a 27-17 loss to the Bengals, who took the lead in the fourth quarter when they caught Cleveland’s defense napping and threw a 41-yard touchdown pass. It was an embarrassing moment for the Browns and first of several rookie moments in a trying season for Shurmur, who also served as the club’s offensive coordinator. It didn’t help that the labor lockout deprived Shurmur of a full offseason to prepare his club. That was reality, not an excuse and Shurmur’s problems were complicated by injuries, controversies involving running back Peyton Hillis and Colt McCoy and playing in the rugged AFC North, where every team but the Browns made the playoffs. Shurmur came out on the other end a bit battered, but unbowed. In his second year, Shurmur is more confident, more assured, more himself. “He’s more seasoned,” linebacker Scott Fujita said. “He’s had a lot thrown at him in his first couple years on the job. But he’s come in, he’s steady and he’s got a little fire to him right now,

He’s more vocal at practice, maximizing teaching moments to instruct his young players, 27 of whom have less than three years of pro experience. He’s also different during press conferences. Last year, he often joked about needing a medical degree to be able to discuss injuries. These days, he says as little as possible. “I don’t think it’s important for us to just tell the world about where we are at,” he said. “That’s just my feelings on that. Maybe that’s just me in Year 2.” There’s no guarantee Shurmur, who recently joked he’s “a bit of a hothead” will be around for a Year 3, but he believes he’s maturing as a coach. “I think the more you do things the more confident you become,” he said. “We start winning games, that would help. I do see the progress behind the scenes and then it becomes quantifiable when you win. I get

son, isn’t as difficult the second time around. “I believe he’s more confident,” Jauron said. “He certainly understands gameday situations. Of course he always did going in, but he’s had a year’s worth of experience dealing with all the issues that can happen. As we know in football there are always going to be things that surprise you.” Shurmur got a big shock on the first day of training camp when Haslam’s intention to buy the Browns from Randy Lerner was announced. In the days that followed, Shurmur seemed rattled. He was edgy, even testy with reporters whose questions got short responses. Shurmur, though, has been at ease lately. On Thursday, he was asked about tight end Alex Smith being used as a lead blocker. One of Shurmur’s more forgettable moments last season came when Smith went into the game as a fullback in fourth quarter, took a handoff and fumbled on his first career carry. The Browns recovered, but Shurmur’s reputation took a major hit.

that and that’s what we’re pushing for.” Shurmur has surrounded himself with quality help. Offensive coordinator Brad Childress and defensive guru Dick Jauron are former NFL head coaches, who have a great appreciation for what Shurmur went through last season. Childress coached in Minnesota from 2006-10. He recalled the challenge of being a first-year coach with the world spinning a million miles per hour. “It’s very tough, very difficult,” Childress said. “We all put books together and manuals for job interviews and things you think somebody wants to hear about. But I know this, I could have five things that I wanted to get done first thing when I walked in the office way early in the morning, and in five minutes I could be going 180 degrees away from those five things even being close to being addressed.” Jauron, who was a head coach in Chicago and Buffalo, has observed Shurmur evolve in two years of on-the-job training.

Troy’s Abby Brinkman serves against Butler Thursday. ■ CONTINUED FROM B3 Leah Selby served four straight points to give the Trojans the edge — scoring one ace to go with two Jen Monnier kills and a kill by Jillian Ross. Butler finally stopped the run by forcing a Troy hitting error, but a service error gave it right back and the Trojans rattled off three more points to make it 7-1. A bit later, Jenna Selby served out six straight points — including two aces and two tip-kills by setter Mackenzie Rice — that gave the Trojans a daunting 18-4 lead at that point. Back-to-back kills by Emily Moser and Ross gave Troy a 21-5 advantage, and the closest Butler got was 23-8 as Ross put down another kill and Cassie Rice served up an ace to close it out. “We were really clicking in that second game,” Owen said. “Everything that went well for us went equally wrong for Butler. And we did a really good job executing our gameplan. We did a good job of digging up balls based on knowing what to expect from the other side of the net. We’ve been working hard off of our scouting report since Monday. “Leah putting us up by four points to start the game really kickstarted us. Game 2 is always that iffy game that can turn the match one way or the other, and that really gave us momentum. That was huge for us.” Throughout the match, it was Troy’s service game that kept Butler from truly getting back into the match. Freshman Lauren

Troy’s Lauren Freed passes to a teammate Thursday against Butler. Freed had a six-point run with three aces that was key in Game 1, the Selby sisters each had runs in Game 2 and Cassie Rice ran off seven straight with an ace in the third game. “We knew who we wanted to serve to, and we knew if we could execute that, they would struggle passing and getting the ball to their best player,” Owen said. “It really hurt them not being able to get the ball to her.” Troy, on the other hand, got the ball to whoever it wanted to. Jenna Selby led the offense with 10 kills, two blocks and two aces, Freed added eight kills, three aces and three digs, Ross had seven kills and a

block, Monnier had five kills, Moser had three kills and a block and Leah Selby had a kill and two aces. Mackenzie Rice piled up 29 assists in the match and added three kills herself. Cassie Rice added 11 digs, a kill and an ace and Abby Brinkman had eight digs. “Everyone contributed tonight. It was a really balanced effort if you’re looking at the kills,” Owen said. “Our four seniors stepped up at key times. Jen and Jenna played huge in the front row, Mackenzie passed well and had three kills herself and Cassie — her ace and kill came at good times.” Troy led 22-14 in Game 3 when Butler (6-3, 1-1)

decided to mount a comeback attempt, tallying six straight points to cut Troy’s lead to two. The teams traded points and Butler took the serve back at 23-21, but Cassie Rice sniped a flat-footed kill from the back row to Butler’s wide-open back corner. Freshman Freed then hammered down the final kill to close out the match. Now Troy — which travels to Versailles Saturday — needs only to avoid letdowns in its matches against Sidney and Trotwood to set up a title match with Piqua to end the season. One last chance to prove that it’s a team of destiny.

Kostecka steps up to protect blind side BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com Heading into the season, Troy football coach Scot Brewer was looking for someone to protect quarterback Matt Barr’s blindside. He appears to have found him. Last year’s starter at left tackle — Seth Overla — made a permanent move to defensive end during the offseason. In his place at left tackle, Brewer inserted Andrew Kostecka, who has stepped up and filled that void admirably. “Kostecka has really come on,” Brewer said. “We’ve challenged him every day in practice and he’s responded the right way. It really has been a nice surprise how fast he’s come along.” Kostecka is joined on the offensive line by junior tackle Alex Dalton, junior center Austin Eidemiller and senior guards Zach Willis and Beau Emerick. • SAFETY DANCE:

ZIMMER

Troy safeties Nick Zimmer and Tre Whitson both turned in big games in the Trojans’ 14-6 win over Xenia last week. Zimmer, a senior, finished with nine tackles, a tackle for loss and a pass broken up. Whitson, a sophomore, finished with 11 tackles, a tackle for loss and a pass broken up. “Whitson was all over the place,” Brewer said. “He made a lot of plays for us.” • HERE HE COMES TO SAVE THE DAY: Inside linebacker Logan Schlosser — affectionately referred to by Brewer as “Mighty Mouse” —

WHITSON turned in another heroic game Saturday against Xenia. Schlosser finished with 12 tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss. For the season, Schlosser leads the Trojans with 35 tackles. “He’ll come up and pop you,” Brewer said. “He’s everywhere we need him to be. He’s a football player. All he does is make plays — it doesn’t matter how big he is.” • STRIKING A BALANCE: Brewer promised a ground-and-pound offense, heavy on the run game while relying on play-action passes to open things up for the defense. It hasn’t exactly

turned out that way. As Troy has had trouble running the ball in two of the first three games of the season, the Trojans have had to rely more and more on the passing game. Through three games, Troy has run the ball 94 times and thrown the ball 51 times — roughly a 6337 run-to-pass ration. That’s far closer to an even mix than Brewer expected. “We’ll take what the defense gives us,” Brewer said. “If the passing game is what is working, that’s what we’ll go with. If the running game is there, we’ll take that.”

HIBBLER Trojan quarterback Matt Barr has completed 27-of-50 passes for 359 yards with four touchdowns and three inteceptions. • CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK: Miles Hibbler didn’t have a huge day rushing the ball against Xenia — the junior tailback had 10 carries for just 18 yards against a stout Xenia defense — but he did do something that may have gone unnoticed by the casual observer. “Miles had a great game blocking,” Brewer said. “He was in there blocking for other guys. That’s just as important

as having a big day running the ball. You have to be willing to block.” • SPIELMAN GRIDIRON CLASSIC: Tonight’s game against Springfield at Troy Memorial Stadium is a part of the Spielman Gridiron Classic. All of the money raised by Troy’s student organizations and boosters will be split equally between the school’s participating student organizations and booster groups and the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at the James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute. Chris Spielman, former Ohio State University and Detroit Lions 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 Classics, LLC, The Ohio Fellowship of Christian Athletes, The Ohio National Guard and Buffalo Wild Wings to present this year’s Spielman Gridiron Classic.

Never say quit

Trojans wary of dangerous ’Cats BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com

Williams comes on strong as a senior BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com Blake Williams was down to his final chance. Having exhausted his laundry list of excuses — and more than a fair amount of the Troy football coaching staff’s patience — Williams was given a simple ultimatum. Show up or get out. “He would do great in practice — when we could find him at practice,” Troy football coach Scot Brewer said of Williams’ junior season with the Troy football team. “He would miss

TROY practices, he would miss workouts — finally, (Troy strength and conditioning coach) Mick Roberts called him out last December. Blake made a vow that he wouldn’t miss another workout. And he hasn’t. Through track season, through working full time; he hasn’t missed a single day. Since last December, we’ve seen a totally different attitude out of Blake.” Given the choice between getting better of getting lost, the Troy senior chose the latter. He locked himself in the weightroom during the offseason, packing on 10 pounds of muscle to an already-chiseled 5-foot-8 frame. He managed to find time to improve his speed, strength and conditioning while going to school, running on a state qualifying 4x100 relay team in the spring and working a full schedule at a local fast food restaurant. He didn’t miss a single off-season workout, despite maintaining a schedule that would bury most normal teenagers. This year, he’s finally cashing in on his enormous — and up until this year, untapped — potential. “I came out with a different attitude this year,” Williams said. “No one was going to take away my spot. I’m dedicated. I

Blake Williams breaks off a long run after a catch this season. didn’t have my head on right before. I figured if I wanted to see the field my senior year, I had to do the work.” Williams’ transformation from absentee to animal has paid big dividends not only for Williams, but for the Troy football team, as well. Through three games this season, Williams is leading the team in all-purpose yards (17 carries for 143 yards and seven catches for 164 yards) and touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving). He’s a big reason why the Trojans are 2-1 heading into tonight’s match-up with Springfield (0-3). “I think for Blake, it was just a matter of him growing up and realizing this was his last shot,” Brewer said. “In the offseason when we were putting our offense together, we decided we were going to run it through him — if he was willing to put in the work. He can do so many different things. He can run and he can catch. He’s fast. He’s really, really, fast. And he’s only 150 or 160 pounds, but he thinks he’s a power runner. He’s not afraid to

lower his head. He’s not looking to make a move — he’s looking to run over somebody. “We knew he could do it — we just had to get that commitment from him that he was willing to put in the work.” That vote of confidence — more than anything else that happened in the offseason — has spurred on Williams. If coaches are going to put their trust in him, he’s going to make that faith is rewarded. “That helps a lot, knowing that coach believes in me,” Williams said. “He’s got the faith in me to give me the ball and make big plays — I’m not going to let him down.” Williams doesn’t take a day off. He goes to school every day, followed by football practice every day after school, then homework. Friday nights are game nights. Saturdays are filled with weightlifting and breaking down game film from the night before. On Sundays — when most other kids in his position would be taking a well-deserved day off, Williams is working a full

shift at Wendys in Troy. “I never have time to sleep,” he said. “A lot of kids ask me how I do the things I do. I just tell them I work hard. I’m not bragging, but I don’t think a lot of kids have the determination that I do.” Earlier this season, the Troy coaching staff showed the team a film of Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL star Herschel Walker, who was well known for his daily workouts, which consisted on push-ups and sit-ups that numbered in the thousands. Williams — who had never heard of the 1980s running back before seeing the movie — immediately found a kindred spirit. “When we were eating before the (Springfield) Shawnee game, our coaches brought in a documentary about Herschel Walker,” Williams said. “It was the greatest documentary I’ve ever seen. He’s my idol now. I look up to him. I want to run the ball like he did. I want to work like he did.” For Williams, it’s all about making the the most of his final chance.

If Troy football coach Scot Brewer hears any of his players talking about records this week, they had better be talking about the ones their parents used to play when they wanted to listen to music. Yes, Troy enters tonight’s matchup with a 2-1 record, while Springfield comes to Troy Memorial Stadium at 0-3 — all of which means very little to Brewer. “Our kids have to realize — and have to get it in our heads — that no matter who we line up against, it’s a matter of how we play,” Brewer said. “It’s not a matter a matter of looking at Springfield as much as it’s a matter of looking at ourselves and getting better at what we have to do. We have to play well to win. If we don’t play well, we won’t win. It’s as simple as that.” Not to mention, Brewer thinks Springfield might be the best 0-3 team he’s ever seen. While the Wildcats are winless, the three teams they’ve lost to — Hamilton, Middletown and Cincinnati Sycamore — all are major Division I programs. The Wildcats have a wealth of athletic talent and at least two players — running back/defensive back Corey Timmons and lineman Brandon Ehlinger — who are considered Division I college prospects. “They are dangerous,” Brewer said. “They are speedy, they are big and they are going to be hungry for a win. If you overlook them, you are writing your own obituary.” Offensively, the key for the Wildcats is quarteback Chris Wallace — whose availability Friday may be in question. Wallace suffered a leg injury in Week 2 against Middletown, but could make his return this week. Brewer is planning as if the dual-threat quarterback is going to be 100 percent this week. “On offense, they do a little bit of everything,” Brewer said. “They will line up in the spread, they will line up unbalanced, they’ll run the option, they’ll run counter — it’s hard to get a read on what they are going to do, because they do so many different

TROY things. We’ll face another athletic quarterback this week. Xenia had athletes here and athletes there — Springfield has those same types of athletes, but maybe double the number.” Troy will counter with a defense that is giving up just 13.7 points per game, tops in the Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division. “Our defense has played well,” Brewer said. “We’ve got to continue to do that. I said at the beginning of the year we would have to play great defense and win some games ‘ugly’ — and that’s pretty much what we’ve done this year.” Springfield’s defense actually resembles Troy’s defense in personnel, if not scheme. While the Wildcats are undersized, they bring plenty of speed on defense. “They’ve got decent size — but they aren’t huge,” Brewer said. “They are probably a little bigger than us — but then again, everyone is bigger than us. They play basically with five linebackers — and they can all run, they can all cover and they can all blitz. They come at you from all angles. They’ve got a lot of guys who are 6-foot-2 and 200, 210 pounds. They are all built like linebackers and they all play like linebackers.” Troy’s offense struggled to move the ball against Xenia — but did enough to score two touchdowns and pull out the victory. After losing so many starters to graduation, Brewer said it’s coming along slowly and just looks for the offense to get better from week to week. “They are getting there,” Brewer said. “We knew coming in it wouldn’t necessarily be an easy process. But the kids are working hard and improving every day.” Follwing Friday’s Springfield game, Troy will go on the road to face Miamisburg (2-1), then return home the following week to host Sidney (2-1) in its first Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division contest of the season. “It doesn’t get any easier,” Brewer said. “We’ve got to come out ready to play each and every week. That’s the way we have to look at things the rest of the season.”

He says he will take visits to all three schools but reportedly is leaning toward Pittsburgh. Marcus Baugh, a 2013 Ohio State verbal commitment tight end from Riverside (Calif.) North High School missed his team’s game last Friday with a concussion and could sit out this week’s game also. Jalin Marshall, a quarterback who is a verbal commitment for Ohio State in 2013, was held to 77 yards rushing on 24 carries in Middletown’s 51-13 loss to Cincinnati Winton Woods.

Big Ten needs to get pride back

California at No. 12 Ohio State • Noon, Saturday, ABC QUARTERBACKS

RECEIVERS

Braxton Miller leads everyone in the Big Ten in rushing with 302 yards but is tenth among the conference’s quarterbacks in passing with 362 yards. Coach Urban Meyer called him “a hell of a player” four times in less than a minute during his weekly press conference Monday and no one is disagreeing. Fifty-five percent of OSU’s rushing yards this season have come from Miller. California quarterback Zach Maynard is a three-year starter who has thrown for 474 yards and two touchdowns for the Bears (1-1). He passed for 2,990 yards with 17 touchdowns and 12 interceptions last season. Advantage: Ohio State

Corey Brown’s first reception of the game will match his season total of 14 catches last year. Devin Smith and Evan Spencer have played well at times. Jake Stoneburner, who caught his first touchdown pass of the season in a 31-16 win over Central Florida last week, is bouncing between wide receiver and tight end, trying to find his most effective position. For California, Keenan Allen, a 6-3, 210-pound junior, is regarded as an NFL draft pick by some people. Freshman Chris Harper (12 catches) has one more reception than Allen and is a solid No. 2 receiver. Last season Allen caught 98 passes. Advantage: California

OFFENSIVE LINE Guard Andrew Norwell was singled out by Meyer for good work in the win over Central Florida, which raised OSU’s record to 2-0. There is still some work to do, though, with cleaning up missed assignments, which have led to the Buckeyes converting only one of three fourth-and-1 situations this season. California will be without its best offensive lineman, Matt Summers-Gavin, because of a knee injury. Advantage: Ohio State

DEFENSIVE LINE Veterans John Simon and Johnathan Hankins have played well, but Ohio State’s pass rush (3 sacks) has not been what it expected. Meyer said he is more concerned about getting pressure on opposing quarterbacks than about achieving a specific sack total. Nathan Williams (knee) is day to day. Michael Bennett is out with a groin injury. End Deandre Coleman is the leader of Cal’s line. He has 1.5 sacks this season and had a pair of sacks in his three starts last season. Advantage: Ohio State

LINEBACKERS One of the big questions at OSU this year is why sophomore Ryan Shazier has not showed up as prominently as he did late last season. He is averaging seven tackles a game, down three a game from the 10 he averaged after taking over for the injured Andrew Sweat in the last four games of last season. Outside linebacker Chris McCain (12 tackles, 2.5 for losses) could be limited by a shoulder injury. Inside linebacker J.P. Hurrell is far down on the Bears’ tackles list, but has three quarterback sacks. Advantage: Ohio State

ZACH BOREN The 6-foot-1, 245-pound senior fullback from Pickerington has started 29 games in his four-year career. And while his career hasn’t been defined by great stats, he may get the ball more in OSU’s depleted backfield.

DEFENSIVE BACKS

Ohio State has five interceptions, three by Travis Howard, but it also has allowed seven pass plays of 20 yards or more. Southern Utah’s Brad Sorensen, one of the best Division I-AA quarterbacks in the country, completed 68 percent of his passes against California last week. The Bears have allowed opposing quarterbacks to complete 72 percent of their passes this season. RUNNING BACKS Advantage: Ohio State Ohio State is not yet desperate, but it is not deep, either, in this area, with true freshman Bri’onte Dunn and fumble-plagued Rod Smith as its only two completely healthy running backs. Jordan Hall, who had preseason foot surgery, SPECIAL TEAMS could return this week, but probably not in a full-time role. Ohio State had three penalties in its kicking game, an unusually high California tailback Isi Sofele rushed for 104 yards on 19 carries in a 50-31 win over Southern Utah after getting only five carries in an opening week loss to total for that unit, in last week’s game. Drew Basil kicked his first field goal of the season, a 24-yarder. Nevada. He rushed for 1,322 yards last season. Cal got a 69-yard punt return for a touchdown by Allen last week. Advantage: Even Kicker Vincenzo D’Amato is 4 of 5 on field goals. Advantage: Even

COLUMBUS — The ball was sitting on the tee and the Big Ten whiffed. Last Saturday was not a good day for Big Ten football teams. It might have been one of their worst days ever. Big Ten football teams split their six games last Saturday, going 6-6. But it gets worse. The Big Ten was 1-6 against teams from BCS conferences and the Leaders Division, home of Ohio State, Wisconsin, Penn State, Indiana, Illinois and Purdue lost four of the six games its teams played. The Big Ten’s wins were over Central Florida, Vanderbilt, Air Force, Central Michigan, a University of Massachusetts team in its first year in Division I and Division I-AA New Hampshire. The losses were to Notre Dame, UCLA, Virginia, Iowa State, Oregon State and Arizona State. Decent programs, but there was not an elite team among the teams who beat the Big Ten. Big Ten Leaders Division favorite Wisconsin lost 10-7 at Oregon State, a team which won three games last season and was picked to finish last in the Pac-12 North Division. Badgers coach Bret Bielema was so unhappy after that loss he fired one of his assistant coaches. Iowa has scored one touchdown in two games and lost to in-state rival Iowa State 9-6 last Saturday. And that game was at Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium. So, maybe Ohio State fans who found flaws — and there definitely were some — in OSU’s 31-16 win over Central Florida should relax and realize things could have been worse. After last Saturday’s games, Ohio State looks like it might be the best team in the Leaders Division. And that makes the decision by OSU’s administration not to selfimpose a bowl ban last season in hopes of preventing the NCAA from handing down a ban this season look even worse. The road to the Big Ten championship game and a shot at the Rose Bowl don’t look quite as difficult as they did even a couple of weeks ago. With OSU playing road games at Michigan State and Wisconsin and being one Braxton Miller injury away from being an average team, there are no guarantees the Buckeyes will finish the season with the best record in the Leaders Division. But if they do and they watch someone else play for the Big Ten title, there will be some second guessing.
