Obama heads west for support President hopes to re-energize Democratic faithful
Stewart wins 2nd straight Tony Stewart made it 2 for 2 in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, pulling ahead when Clint Bowyer ran out of gas with two laps left to win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday. Stewart is on a roll when the season matters most, following last week’s Chase opening victory at Chicagoland Speedway with another strong performance at New Hampshire. Both of his victories this season have come in the Chase and have propelled him to the top of the points standings. See Page 10.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is trying out his newly combative message on the liberal West Coast, aiming to re-energize faithful Democratic voters who have grown increasingly disenchanted with him. The trip, which begins Sunday and includes fundraisers from Seattle to Hollywood and San Diego, comes as Obama has shift-
ed from seeking compromise with Republicans on Capitol Hill to calling out House Speaker John Boehner and others by name. The president has criticized them as obstructionists and demanded their help in passing his $447 billion jobs bill. This approach is a relief to Democratic activists fed up by what they viewed as the presi-
dent’s ceding of ground to the GOP on tax cuts and other issues when the economy has stalled and unemployment is stuck above 9 percent. Obama’s three-day trip offers him the chance to try to reassure some of his most liberal and deeppocketed supporters with his aggressive new message as the 2012 campaign revs up.
He probably can look forward to a friendly welcome from invited fundraiser guests, including at private events with ticket prices as high as the $35,800 maximum. But liberal activists were making plans to greet Obama along the way with demonstrations criticizing his policies or reminding him they want him to do more. “We want to see Obama stand

Thursday’s Bradford village Council meeting began with an informational work session dealing with the water, sewage, and refuse funds and ended with tempers flaring. The bottom line for all three funds, according to council members, is that the rates should be raised in order to allow the village to continue with water plant repairs, the EPA required sewage plant overhaul and the removal of all kinds of refuse from the village. The majority of both the work session and regular meeting were spent discussing the sewage plant and sewage separation projects, including where the combined $5.8 million will come from. According to Brice Schmitmeyer of Fanning/Howey Engineers, the village would end up with about $3.87 million in loans after all of the different grants have been applied — $2.25 million on the sewage plant, up to $1.12 million on the separation project and an estimated $0.5 million on needed repairs to the water treatment plant. The worst scenario given by village administrator Roger Looker would require the monthly sewer bills to be raised $6.03, the water to be raised $5, and the refuse to increase $5.45; however the best case would only raise the monthly sewage up $2.80, water up $2.78, and refuse up $5. The refuse removal fund is loosing an average of $22,670 per year and all of Rumpke’s options will increase that deficit to around $30,000 per year by the third contract year. Council is waiting until more of the projects’ numbers have been finalized before raising rates, since the amounts needed are still estimates. This uncertainty caused severe caution by council. Council then voted not to allow the mayor to sign the notice of award for Judy excavation — the bid winner for the sewage plant project. The notice, according to Looker, would only show intent to go forward with the project and allow Dan Judy to talk to his suppliers and firm up supply

The closure of the Interstate 64 bridge over the Ohio River between Louisville and southern Indiana has raised questions about whether it will affect a long-term project to build two new bridges in the vicinity. Local, state and federal leaders have been reluctant to link the closure of the Sherman Minton bridge with the Ohio River Bridges project, which proposes a new span in downtown Louisville and one in eastern Jefferson County.

the bill, Obama has said he wants to make sure the public knows who’s standing in the way. Jobs are a major concern in California, where unemployment stands at 12.1 percent, highest of any state except Nevada. Mark DiCamillo, director of California’s Field Poll, said that’s contributed to a softening of support for Obama among Democratic and independent voters. Obama’s job approval rating dropped to 46 percent among Californians in a Field Poll this month. Among Democrats it was 69 percent, but that was down 10 percentage points from June. “Californians voted for him by 24 points in 2008 and the Democrats and nonpartisans were the backbone

It’s something he said he brings with him every day to his new position at executive director of the LCC. Although he’s only been on the job a short time, Carter said he already has a clear vision for Lincoln Center. “Our No. 1 goal is to legitimize this facility, in general, to all walks of life,” he said. “We want senior citizens to feel comfortable coming here to swim. We want kids to feel comfortable coming here after school. We also want to reach out to a lot of the at-risk youth here in Troy, whether they be at risk for dropping out of school, drugs or whatever. We want to be a positive influence on the lives of young people. “We want to make sure all of our recreation programs are up to date. We want to offer swimming programs, after-school tutoring programs and a pre-school enrichment center. We want to be able to improve kids’ test scores and eventually get them college scholarships.” So far, those involved with Lincoln Center have been impressed with Carter’s work ethic and enthusiasm. “We are pleased to have Shane return to his home to run the LCC,” LCC Board President Stephen Lucas said. “He grew up in the LCC and knows what is needed to build a sustainable organization. He has a strong passion for the community the kids. He has built solid relationships with people in the community and will be successful in driving improvement in the

Galen Balmert stated that he was “gun shy” because of all the “changing numbers.” Jeff Wirrig and JB Fritts asked, “What happened to the contingency plan?” Several expressed displeasure in Fanning/Howey’s execution of these projects. Don Stump and Bill Favorite were the only two talking about moving forward with any of the projects. Looker asked, “If you are going to move forward, what do you need?” In the end, after all council members had their say, Schmitmeyer agreed to put together as many of the final numbers as he could by the next meeting. Council also voted again for the notice of award, this time it passed 4-2. Fritts and Balmert changed their votes to yes, since it wasn’t a final contract and would allow for more finalized numbers.

of his support and he’s losing some of that now,” DiCamillo said. “I think there’s a lot of frustration in California about Washington. … They’re looking for Obama to do something.” Some Democratic supporters are heartened by the jobs plan and Obama’s insistence that Congress must raise taxes to pay for it. Now they’re hoping that the confrontational Obama they’re seeing now is the same one they’ll see through the 2012 campaign. “We wish that his fighting spirit had been there a few months ago, but it’s here now,” said Rick Jacobs, head of the Courage Campaign, a progressive online organizing network in California.

ity staffs expected some tests while introducing our products to a new press operation, the process of assembling each of our editions with daily preprints; advertising and informational circulars; has been somewhat of an unexpected opportunity. We are very fortunate that so many of our clients value our newspapers and your readership, understanding that local newspapers remain the number one source for news and advertising homedelivery. Because of such confidence, Ohio Community Media and your local newspaper actually delivers more preprint advertising than many area metropolitan newspapers. The time invested to assemble your daily newspaper, initially, has required more “on-the-production-line” hours than originally estimated. The unexpected assembly and transportation delays have effected final delivery times to your home. Last week one of our valued readers wrote to us, “There is an old adage that proclaims ‘We Progress Through Change.’ However, in my opinion (and the people I have breakfast with) your recent change … defies that old proverb.” Consolidation of six regional print facilities into one state-wide production facility is/was a required progression. All of us at the Troy Daily News, Sidney Daily News and Piqua Daily Call will do our best to display “progress through change.” All of us greatly appreciate your continued support and understanding during these opportunistic times. Change is inevitable.
in quality. The answer was fairly simple … different systems in place; different equipment at each location; different personnel from one plant to another. And, while our overall print quality has greatly improved … literally, overnight; bringing many operations together under one large print facility has also created a few unforeseen “opportunities.” Earlier news/editorial deadlines: Two weeks ago I had the responsibility of informing our highly dedicated local journalists that deadlines would be required to be adjusted. Since so many newspapers would be published from the same print operation, there are simply not enough hours in the evening to produce our products, along with many other daily sister publications, which also deliver early each morning. Deadlines have been advanced. Most challenging will be late night meeting coverage and late night local athletic events.
Single section weekday newspapers: Our new tri-folder presses will allow up to three different daily newspapers to be printed at the same time. While this consolidates production times, it also means that each of our newspapers will be published in one section. Reader concerns have been expressed that a onesection newspaper is a notable “change.” We will continue to give you our very best local coverage efforts throughout our newspaper; most editions will come to you in one colorful section.

The council was helping organize a demonstration outside Seattle’s Paramount Theater, the site of an Obama fundraiser Sunday. Obama and the Republican presidential candidates are working overtime to raise campaign cash ahead of an important Sept. 30 reporting deadline that will give a snapshot of their financial strength. Obama’s West Coast visit was heavy on fundraisers: two each in Seattle and
the San Francisco area Sunday, followed by one in San Diego on Monday and two in Los Angeles. The expected haul: $4 million or more. He scheduled a town hall-style event Monday in the Silicon Valley hosted by social networking company LinkedIn. The trip ends Tuesday with a speech to supporters in Denver, where he accepted the Democratic nomination three years ago. Obama will work to sell the job proposal, which combines tax cuts, unemployment benefits and public works spending. The bill faces a hostile reception on Capitol Hill, particularly because Obama wants to pay for it with tax increases opposed by Republicans. If he can’t persuade Congress to pass

ANALYSIS
Middle East heading into a dangerous paralysis RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — With combative speeches at the United Nations, the Palestinian and Israeli leaders have locked themselves into positions that seem to preclude a resumption of peace talks and usher in a season of confrontation over a Palestinian state. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will now focus on rallying international support, his aides say, in hopes of pressuring and isolating Israel and driving up the political cost of holding on to the lands it occupied in the 1967 war. Abbas insisted Saturday that he won’t go back to talks without an Israeli settlement freeze or acceptance of pre-1967 borders as a starting point. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while calling for new talks, gave no sign he’s willing to consider those demands. Instead, he reiterated in interviews with Israeli TV stations that the Palestinians must recognize Israel as a Jewish state and that talks would first have to address security arrangements. Considering the vast gaps, international mediators did not offer bridging proposals after the two leaders’ speeches, instead simply urging a resumption of talks and a deal within about a year. But such target dates have little meaning without real pressure and previous timetables were quickly cast aside. The Palestinians, bypassing what they see as pointless talks with the historically hardline Netanyahu, will now try to boost their standing, mainly at the U.N. On Friday, Abbas submitted a request for U.N. membership of a state of Palestine in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem, areas Israel captured in 1967 and since populated with half a million settlers living among about 4 million Palestinians. Even though the recognition bid is sure to be derailed either by insufficient support or a U.S. veto in the U.N. Security Counci the Palestinians stand a good chance of a General Assembly status upgrade that would grant them access to U.N. agencies and international courts. The aim is to “pressure Israel through all U.N. agencies,” said Abbas aide Nabil Shaath. Some Palestinians said the new strategy is nothing less than a paradigm shift, following two decades in which the Palestinians pursued a series of bilateral efforts to reach agreement with a much stronger Israel with the U.S. and other international players mediating but never imposing terms on either side. Twice over the past decade, the negotiators seemed to make serious progress, with Israel which had pulled its troops out of Gaza in 2005 also offering to give up large chunks of the West Bank and parts of east Jerusalem. In the end, gaps could not be bridged. “For a long time, the program was just to negotiate with the occupier,” said Mustafa Barghouti, an independent West Bank politician. “Now we should defy our occupier. We gave them enough time.” Abbas’ new approach, especially his defiance of the Obama administration, which opposes the recognition bid, has proven to be hugely popular at home. The Palestinian leader has clearly enjoyed the sudden adoration from flag-waving crowds after six years in power with few political achievements and many setbacks, including the loss of Gaza to the Islamic militant Hamas in 2007. On the flight home Saturday, he told reporters he was exhausted after marathon meetings and intense pressure on him to desist, even from some Arab countries, but that “this didn’t affect our spirits to reach the goal and deliver the Palestinian message officially.” Yet he also cautioned that “we don’t want to push people to have high expectations.” Palestinian officials acknowledged that there is no detailed plan to move forward, beyond calling for nonviolent protests against Israel and eventually asking the General Assembly to admit Palestine as a nonmember observer state, with the implied recognition of the pre-1967 borders.

DOONESBURY
Bicycle starting to cause me road rage Troy Troy Daily News A few years ago, I listened to my son and some friends talk about a bicycle trip they took to Michigan. “Hey,” I thought, “I should get a bicycle. I’d like to go on that trip.” I really hadn’t been on a bicycle for any distance since high school, but you know what they say about riding a bike. I figured I could save some money by riding a bike to work; I could be a regular “green” sort of guy; and it probably would help my health. Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans … Take the saving money thing. Sure, I save on gasoline and wear and tear on my car. On the other hand, I had to buy a bicycle, which can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars to about a bajillion dollars. You can guess what end of the spectrum I was on. Then you have to get all the accessories: helmet, pump, spare tubes, those cool gloves bikers wear, lights in case you get caught out at dawn or dusk, various other implements of destruction. And things wear out. I’ve had to replace tires and brakes, not to mention fix more flat tires than a revenue agent chasing a moonshiner.
David Lindeman Troy Daily News Columnist So basically, I am behind on the money thing. I suppose I am doing my part for the environment, except for the fact that my wife drives a minivan. That kind of cancels me out. And the health — well, it’s true I am in better shape these days (I think). I’m not sure if my various aches and pains are because I’m getting older or because I ride a bike with a tiny little seat that apparently was designed by an inquisition engineer during the Dark Ages. Then there are the accidents. I know a biker in Michigan who says, “There are two kinds of bicycle riders -- one who has had an accident, and one who will.” I thought he was just saying that to sound profound. I’m a careful guy,
how dangerous can it be? My first accident happened when I turned a corner and discovered a log in the middle of the bike path. That resulted in a bruise the size of a softball and various scrapes and bumps. My second accident happened when I hit a patch of wet mud on a turn. When I woke up trying to figure out what happened, I had blood and mud all over me and a broken bicycle pump. My stitches cost $300 and the pump cost another $25, which didn’t do anything to help my bicycle bottom line. But wait! Last week it finally was time for the big bike trip in Michigan, and it would all be worthwhile. I first started to worry when I discovered that northwest Michigan has something western Ohio does not – hills. Big hills. They looked like Mount Kilimanjaro size hills to me, but I might be exaggerating. The first morning it was about 40 degrees and raining. But that doesn’t stop true bikers! Off I went, trying to stay upright while huffing and puffing up the hills. Oh, I almost forgot to mention — against the wind. It’s very windy in Michigan.
Fortunately, one of my sons was along for the trip and he kept an eye on me. It was kind of a life role reversal — after all those years of trying to help him survive to adulthood, I was now relying on him to help me survive the weekend. I think it pretty much was an even trade. Of course, I had two flat tires. But no accidents. And after riding for miles and miles for three days and conquering almost all of those giant hills, I had a real feeling of … extreme fatigue, actually. I was really tired. I was happy to fall into the back of the car and consider my ways on the ride home. You know what? For two years I’ve spent a bunch of money, almost killed myself and worn myself out riding up and down hills in another state. But on Monday morning, I hopped on my bike and rode to work. Maybe I should see a psychiatrist, but that would just cost more money and I’ve spent it all on my bicycle habit. So I guess I’ll just see you on the road.

LOCAL & REGION
Bridge questions loom LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The closure of the Interstate 64 bridge over the Ohio River between Louisville and southern Indiana has raised questions about whether it will affect a long-term project to build two new bridges in the vicinity. Local, state and federal leaders have been reluctant to link the closure of the Sherman Minton bridge with the Ohio River Bridges project, which proposes a new span in downtown Louisville and one in eastern Jefferson County. Experts in transportation and infrastructure finance told The CourierJournal it could be difficult to keep that plan on track if the Sherman Minton proves costly to fix. Indiana officials announced Friday that the Sherman Minton won’t need replacement, but said engineers were still doing tests to determine what repairs will be needed. Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels ordered the 50year-old bridge closed on Sept. 9 after inspectors found a crack in a load-bearing steel support beam. The action came as officials in Kentucky and Indiana work toward a financing plan for the new bridges. The plan estimates how
much of Kentucky’s and Indiana’s federal fuel-tax money will be available. Bridge tolls would cover any gap. The Louisville and Southern Indiana Bridges Authority said it still plans to seek bids for the project’s lead developer by early 2012. That could prove problematic if issues with the Sherman Minton bridge aren’t resolved by then, according to Rick Norment, executive director of the National Council for PublicPrivate Partnerships. The Washington, D.C., group includes state and local governments and private industry. “Particularly on a project of this size, it takes a substantial amount of corporate investment to put together a proposal, and there’s going to be enormous hesitation at the next stage,” Norment said. He said the main issue would be whether repairs to the Sherman Minton would fight the bridges project for gas-tax money. Stephen L. Reich, interim director of the University of South Florida’s Center for Urban Transportation Research, said the first question for investors is how repairs to the Sherman Minton bridge will be funded.
“The combination of funds is going to affect the toll rate, and the toll rate has to be at a number that is financially feasible,” he said. Steve Schultz, the executive director of the bridges authority, said the fate of the Sherman Minton isn’t known so it would be premature to speculate on any impact that it might have. He said state sponsors have indicated the panel should move ahead and that’s what they are doing. In a recent statement, Gov. Steve Beshear said he remains “fully committed” to the bridges project and said he, Daniels and Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer have worked to lower costs and speed construction. But right now, Beshear said the Sherman Minton is his priority. “We don’t yet know how the repairs to that bridge may affect the Ohio River Bridges Project, but our collective efforts must be focused on the public’s safety and restoring the Sherman Minton as quickly as possible,” he said. Daniels’ spokeswoman, Jane Jankowski, said in an email that the bridges project “continues to move ahead on its own schedule. The project is separate from Sherman Minton.”

Dick, of The Dalles, Ore., was a fixture at Oregon basketball and football games. The 6-foot, 4-inch forward led the so-called “Tall Firs” team in scoring in the championship win over Ohio State. Dick went on to serve in the U.S. Navy during World War II. Dick was named to the All-America and all-Pacific Coast Conference teams after scoring 333 points in 31 games. He also served as president of the student body. His No. 18 jersey is one of only seven retired by the university. • Arch West DALLAS — Arch West, a retired Frito-Lay marketing executive credited with creating Doritos as the first national tortilla chip brand, has died in Dallas at age 97. A statement issued by the West family says he died Tuesday at Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas. A graveside service is scheduled for Oct. 1, and daughter Jana Hacker of Allen tells The Dallas Morning News (http://dallasne.ws/qzPm9E) the family plans on “tossing Doritos chips in before they put the dirt over the urn.” West was a marketing vice president for Dallasbased Frito-Lay in 1961 when, while on a family vacation near San Diego, he found a snack shack selling fried tortilla chips. Hacker says her father got a tepid corporate response to the tortilla chip idea, but conducted marketing
research that led to the Doritos rollout. • Ed Robb COLUMBIA, Mo. — Former Republican Missouri state lawmaker Ed Robb is dead at the age of 69. Family spokesman Yancy Williams says Robb collapsed and died Saturday while leaving a birthday party in downtown Columbia. Williams says Robb had a pacemaker put in late last year but had been feeling fine since then. Robb became the Boone County presiding commissioner in November two years after failing to win reelection to the Missouri House of Representatives. He also was president of a consulting firm and was a former economics professor at the University of Missouri. Williams described Robb as a “good friend” and said he had the ability to “explain complicated things in a simple way.” Robb is survived by his wife, Rosa, of Columbia, and their five children. Funeral arrangements are pending. • Danny Litwhiler CLEARWATER, Fla. — Danny Litwhiler, who followed an 11-year major league career in the 1940s
with a lifetime of coaching college players and work on inventions intended to improve the game he loved, died Friday at the age of 95. Michigan State, one of the schools where Litwhiler coached, said Litwhiler died in Clearwater, Fla., and that his widow, Patricia, had notified the school. He also coached at Florida State. Litwhiler played for the Phillies, Cardinals, Braves and Reds from 1940-51. He was an All-Star in 1942 with Philadelphia and was a member of the Cardinals’ 1944 championship team. According to biographical information from Michigan State, Litwhiler was the first major leaguer to play an entire season without committing an error (317 chances in 151 games in 1942) and played 187 consecutive errorless games over a period of two seasons. Litwhiler, a two-time Gold Glove winner, had a lifetime average of .282 with 107 home runs, 451 RBIs and 428 runs scored in 1,057 games played. He later served as international president for the U.S. Baseball Federation from 1978-83. Michigan State said he helped develop one of the first radar guns for use in clocking pitches, one of dozens of inventions for the game. 2214374

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Try to resolve things with your children Dear Annie: Ten months ago, I was in the hospital and was not expected to live. Fortunately, I recovered. Unfortunately, I had given power of attorney to my children. My oldest daughter had my mail forwarded to her and took over the finances. All the kids cleaned out my house, taking what they or their children wanted and selling what was left without telling me what happened to it. They sold my house at auction for less than we paid for it 25 years ago. I said it was a lousy time to be selling, but they wanted to get rid of the house before winter. I was in no condition to take care of things for a couple of months, so I am now in an assisted-living facility with my clothes and very few possessions. Anytime I want money from my savings, I have to ask my daughter. She only gives me the mail she thinks I should get. I am dependent on friends to take me places. I finally wrote to my favorite magazine publishers, asking them to send the magazines directly to the assisted-living facility. Now my daughter is upset, saying I'm unappreciative of all they did for me. I thanked them each time they came to visit or did anything special. Evidently, that is not enough. I know I am better off than some of the people here. One woman was released from the hospital and didn't even have any clothes because her son had gotten rid of everything. Now what? — Unhappy 80Year-Old Woman Dear Unhappy: When loved ones are frightened, they often do surprisingly unkind things in an attempt to be protective. In your case, however, it is interfering with your independence and creating resentment on all sides. Does your assisted-living facility have an ombudsman or social worker on staff? Talk to someone there, and perhaps ask for a mediation session with your children to see if you can work through this. Dear Annie: My teenage son's girlfriend often picks him up for dates since she drives and he doesn't. When she pulls into the driveway, she sits in the car and honks the horn for him to come out. My son told her that we regard this as rude, and that she should get out of the car and come to the door. Instead of showing respect by complying, she took a poll of her co-workers, and apparently, the majority feel it is perfectly OK to honk the horn this way. Am I hopelessly old-fashioned, or is this now considered acceptable behavior? — Honking Mad Dear Mad: This is still not acceptable behavior. It's OK to honk if you are the carpool driver, but not for a date. What does your teenage son think of a girlfriend who is so disrespectful that she would justify behaving in a manner that his parents find objectionable? It does not speak well of her. Dear Annie: This is for "Trapped in Vermont," the 45year-old woman with an alcoholic husband who refuses to get sober. I could have written that letter. My husband insisted he didn't have a drinking problem because he didn't drink in front of me. He also said that everything wrong in our marriage was my fault. I am now 70, and my divorce will be final soon. When I finally realized that I might live 20 more years and didn't want to spend it with a drunk, I decided to get out. How I wish I had done it at 45. Please tell her that it is never too late to start a new life. — Not Trapped Anymore Dear Readers: Today is Family Day (casafamilyday.org). Studies show that children who eat dinner with their parents have a reduced risk of substance abuse. Please try to make meals a family event.

HINTS FROM HELOISE
Wedding flowers can help spread a little happiness Dear Heloise: Before our daughter’s wedding, we contacted the Ronald McDonald House in Lubbock, Texas. We asked if we could bring the wedding flowers to the house that Saturday night, and they were thrilled. After the wedding and reception, the florist delivered them for us. We were told that the families felt a “bright spot” that Sunday morning when they saw the flowers. — Kirby D. in Texas This is a wonderful hint! Valerie Reeves of Katy, Texas, shared a similar story: “Our son was recently married, and the wedding took place out of town. We had fresh floral arrange-
Hints from Heloise Columnist ments made for the rehearsal dinner. A couple of weeks before the wedding, I contacted a hospital in the wedding town and set up a donation of our flowers. “On the morning of the wedding, my husband and I delivered the flowers to the hospital for them to distribute to patients. The hospital had two
nurses ready to meet us with red wagons. Hospital personnel were happy to help us spread our joy by sharing flowers. It made us happy, too!” — Heloise FAST FACTS Dear Readers: When replacing your microwave, save the glass turntable. It is handy for the following: • Use as a cake platter. • Serve sandwiches on it. • Set cookies out on it. • Use as a candle display base. — Heloise A COUPLE OF HINTS Dear Heloise: I read your column every day in the
Spokane, Wash., paper. With my kids now playing multiple sports, I reuse either older kids’ backpacks or pick up a couple at the thrift store, and use them for all of their equipment. We mark them on the outside so they know which backpack they need for which sport, and when they are done, everything goes back into the backpacks. I have a hanger on the back of the door for them to hang on. When socks either are too small or have holes in them, I will wash them and then use them around the house for cleaning or dusting. — Lisa Irwin, via email

HOROSCOPE Monday, Sept. 26, 2011 Provided you don’t unhinge helpful alliances, a resurgence of your independence is possible once again in the year ahead. Before you cut anybody loose, however, make sure it’s to the advantage of yourself and your colleagues. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — If you are too indecisive, you might let a friend, associate or family member take it upon himself or herself to make a big decision for you. Don’t blame the person who does so if you don’t like his or her choice. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — A big, urgent responsibility that you’ve been artfully dodging in hopes that someone else would do it, is likely to be dumped in your lap. You and your lap asked for it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — If you refuse to go along with the majority, you are likely to create a lot of unnecessary dissension among your peers. Smile and be a part of things instead of being obstinate. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — At work you are more likely to be tripped up by your own poor choices than you would be by any opposition. Subdue all erratic inclinations and eschew carelessness. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — A lot of time and effort on your part could be wasted if your strategies are poorly planned or executed. It is important to establish a game plan that you know will work. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If the money isn’t already in your bank account, don’t think you can pay for something pricey without causing some big problems. Base your calculations on sure things. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Do not assume to know what your mate would want when it comes to selecting something both you and she or he would use, especially if it’s a big purchase. Check with your better half first. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — You should take extra precaution when working with tools or materials that you’re unfamiliar with. In fact, doublecheck the instructions before you embark on your work. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — A situation that has pronounced elements of possible failure attached to it should be checked very thoroughly before you get involved. It could create some serious problems. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — If you are considering doing some refurbishing around your place, study your plan before drastically changing anything. Impulsive action might not wear too well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Be extremely selective to whom you go for advice. If you check with someone who knows less than you do, you are likely to compound your confusion. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Before making a large purchase, analyze your financial position very carefully to make sure it has the necessary elasticity to handle the financial stretching. Subdue any impulsive spending. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Monday, Sept. 26, the 269th day of 2011. There are 96 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 26, 1789, Thomas Jefferson was confirmed by the Senate to be the first U.S. secretary of state; John Jay, the first chief justice; Edmund Randolph, the first attorney general. On this date: • In 1777, British troops occupied Philadelphia during the American Revolution. • In 1892, John Philip Sousa and his newly formed band per-
formed publicly for the first time, at the Stillman Music Hall in Plainfield, N.J. • In 1955, following word that President Dwight D. Eisenhower had suffered a heart attack, the New York Stock Exchange saw its worst price decline since 1929. • In 1960, the first-ever debate between presidential nominees took place in Chicago as Democrat John F. Kennedy and Republican Richard M. Nixon faced off before a national TV audience. • In 1990, the Motion Picture
Association of America announced it had created a new rating, NC-17, to replace the X rating. • One year ago: Gloria Stuart, the 1930s Hollywood beauty who later became the oldest Academy Award acting nominee as the spunky survivor in “Titanic,” died in Los Angeles at age 100. • Today’s Birthdays: Actor Kent McCord is 69. Singer Olivia Newton-John is 63. Actor Jim Caviezel is 43. Tennis player Serena Williams is 30.

the declining water temperatures in the Pacific Ocean could steer storms away from Arizona for a second year in a row, leaving below-average runoff next year. Such a “double dip” La Nina a weather maker that typically brings warmer, drier winters to the Southwest every three to six years would raise new concerns about fire danger, rangeland health and water supplies for towns that rely on wells. Many climate experts say Arizona never emerged from a drought that began in the late 1990s, even though depleted instate reservoirs refilled during occasional wet winters. Now, some climatologists suggest there could be a link between this dry cycle and other extreme weather events. “We’re seeing drought from Arizona to Georgia, unprecedented drought, but the thing that’s made it the worst ever in places like Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma hasn’t been the rainfall deficit,” said Jonathan Overpeck, founding codirector of the University of Arizona’s Institute for the Environment. “It’s been the heat. We just haven’t had the clouds or the rain to cool the heat.” Arizona gets most of its precipitation during two wet seasons. Winter, when snow accumulates in the mountains before melting into rivers and streams, is by far the most important contributor to water resources and range health. The summer monsoon can help refill aquifers and green up the rangelands until winter returns. This year, both seasons underperformed. After an encouraging start, winter snow runoff was below average in Arizona’s high country, muted by La Nina, and the monsoon has been spotty at best.

PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona has been in drought conditions since 1999. Experts say a dry winter and a weak monsoon this year could make matters worse. The La Nina weather pattern the ocean force responsible for the scant snowfall in Arizona’s high country last year has returned and could set the stage for even drier conditions next year, forecasters say. The latest weekly survey by the Nebraska-based National Drought Mitigation Center shows all of Arizona in some degree of drought, from abnormally dry conditions in the state’s western third to pockets of extreme drought on the Navajo Reservation and extreme and exceptional drought in the southeastern corner of the state. Meanwhile, a winter forecast by the Climate Prediction Center suggests little will change on the survey’s drought map in the coming months. The odds favor drier, warmer weather over most of Arizona through December. The Arizona Republic reports that dry conditions have forced some ranchers to continue reducing livestock herds already decimated by more than a decade of poor range conditions. Brittle forests contributed to a record wildfire season this year that has charred more than 1 million acres and lingered into September. San Carlos Lake near Coolidge is nearly empty, leaving less water for farmers in Pinal and Gila counties. In the Phoenix metropolitan area, the lack of cooling rain pushed August temperatures to record levels and fed an unusual number of dust storms. As winter approaches, forecasters say

McCoy leads comeback
September 26, 2011
TD pass to Massaquoi gives Browns win CLEVELAND (AP) — Colt McCoy paced Cleveland’s sideline trying to rally his teammates. So bad for nearly 57 minutes, the Browns were down, not done. McCoy wanted to make things right. One last chance. “We need one drive,” McCoy recalled telling them. “One drive and we can win this thing.” McCoy made good on his promise, throwing a 14-yard touchdown pass to Mohamed Massaquoi with 43 seconds left, capping an 80-yard drive to rally the Browns to a 17-16 win Sunday over winless Miami, a deflating loss that will bring even more heat on
embattled Dolphins coach Tony Sparano. Before his game-winning TD toss, McCoy had overthrown, underthrown and flat-out missed receivers all afternoon. But when it mattered most, he completed nine of 13 passes for all 80 yards to six different receivers on Cleveland’s winning drive, making up for a forgettable performance by Cleveland’s offense. “We played like garbage for the most part of the day,” McCoy said. “As ugly as it was, it was a huge win for AP PHOTO Cleveland Browns wide receiver Mohamed us.” Getting the ball back with 3:23 left, Massaquoi flips the ball away after a 14-yard touch-
down catch against the Miami Dolphins in the final ■ See BROWNS on 10 minute Sunday in Cleveland.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton (14) passes under pressure from San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Ray McDonald (91) in the first half Sunday in Cincinnati.
Tough Crowd Hunter’s TD rallies 49ers past Bengals CINCINNATI (AP) — One game into their weeklong trip, the San Francisco 49ers already have a very nice gift to take home and put on the shelf. And they’ve left room in the suitcase for one more. Kendall Hunter ran 7 yards for the game’s only touchdown with 3:59 to go Sunday, rallying the 49ers to a 13-8 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals that began their extended stay in the Buckeye State on an upbeat note. The 49ers (2-1) haven’t had many wins on East Coast time lately, and it looked like they’d forgotten to pack their West Coast offense. San Francisco didn’t even cross midfield for the first time until midway
through the third quarter. Trailing 6-3, the 49ers put together their only drive of the game for the winning score, stunning the smallest crowd for a Bengals home opener in 30 years. Now, there’s something to write home about. “To become that type of team that wins on the road and take that next step, you have to win like this,” said Alex Smith, who was 4 of 5 for 48 yards on the winning drive. “I think guys were frustrated, but in a good way. They were frustrated and fired up. They wanted the ball back. “That was different. A lot of times, I’ve been on teams where it’s kind of, ‘Here we go again,’
and this is a lot different.” It was a satisfying start to the 49ers’ visit to Ohio. They’ll practice at Youngstown State the next few days, then head to Philadelphia for their next game. What do they think so far? “It’s a lot different over here,” Hunter said. Sure is. In a lot of ways. There were only 43,363 fans at 65,500-seat Paul Brown Stadium, the Bengals’ smallest crowd for a home opener since they played at Riverfront Stadium in 1981. Cincinnati (12) was limited to a pair of field goals by Mike Nugent during rookie quarterback Andy

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Dontrelle Willis took matters into his own hands to break loose after three months of frustration and end 2011 on a high note. The veteran left-hander scattered three hits over six innings and smacked a two-run double to lead the Cincinnati Reds past the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-4 on Sunday. “The guys really battled for me today,” Willis said. “They knew it was my last start and the way I pitched poorly the last start I wanted to finish the season with confidence. We went out there and played a good game.” Willis (1-6) gave up three runs, walked two and struck out six to collect his first victory in the majors since beating the Colorado Rockies while pitching for Arizona on June 5, 2010. The road back to the win column has been bumpy. Willis pitched well enough in Triple-A Louisville to earn a callup from the Reds in July. He impressed early on but was undone by a bullpen that blew three saves in his first five starts. Twins 6, Indians 4 (10 Innings) CLEVELAND — Thanks in part to an inadvertent gesture in the dugout, Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire kept his Twins from taking another one on the chin. Rene Tosoni homered in the 10th inning and Chris Parmelee added an RBI single to give Minnesota a 6-4 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. It was only the third win in 22 games for the battered and reeling Twins, who caught a break when Gardenhire decided to scratch his chin.

ATLANTA (AP) — In the richest playoff in golf history, Bill Haas came up with the shots that matched the money. With his ball half-submerged on the bank of a lake, Haas blasted out of the water to about 3 feet to save par on the second playoff hole against Hunter Mahan, then got up-and-down for par on the 18th green to win the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup.
Haas won a combined $11.44 million including $10 million for capturing the FedEx Cup. “It was all or nothing,” Haas said of his shot from the water left of the 17th green. That’s what this playoff felt like. Mahan had to settle for $864,000 for his runner-up finish, and $700,000 for finishing seventh in the FedEx Cup. The difference between winning and
losing was $9.876 million. Haas won for the first time this year, and the payoff could be more than just a massive bank deposit. Fred Couples makes his final captain’s pick on Tuesday for the Presidents Cup, and Haas put on quite a show. Even if Couples wasn’t watching, his assistant captain had a great view: Jay Haas, Bill’s dad, was in the gallery at East Lake, and raised his arms

Weddle’s INT saves day, Chargers top Chiefs Vick hurt, Giants beat Eagles; Lindell’s FG gives Bills win over Patriots SAN DIEGO (AP) — Eric Weddle intercepted Matt Cassel at midfield with 55 seconds left to preserve San Diego’s victory over winless Kansas City. The Chiefs (0-3) got the ball back at its 33 with 1:26 left after Philip Rivers was stuffed on fourth-and-1 at the Chiefs 34. Out of timeouts and hoping for a huge upset, Cassel threw for 24 yards to Leonard Pope. On the next play, Cassel, under pressure and backpedaling, threw the ball right to the blitzing Weddle, who signed a $40 million contract in the offseason. Troy graduate Kris Dielman plays guard for the Chargers. Ryan Mathews scored twice and the uninspiring Chargers overcame two more interceptions by Rivers to improve to 2-1 for just the second time in coach Norv Turner’s five seasons. Giants 29, Eagles 16 PHILADELPHIA — With Michael Vick knocked out of another game, Eli Manning and the New York Giants wouldn’t let the Philadelphia Eagles finish off their comeback. Manning threw four touchdown passes, including two to Victor Cruz, and the Giants beat the Eagles 29-16 Sunday. Vick started despite suffering a concussion in last week’s 35-31 loss at Atlanta. He left with a broken right hand in the fourth quarter after helping the Eagles overcome a 14-0 first-quarter deficit to take a 16-14 lead. It’s uncertain how long Vick will be out. Without their Pro Bowl quarterback, the Eagles (12) hardly look like the “Dream Team” that entered the season with Super Bowl or bust expectations.
The Giants (2-1) have won two in a row and snapped a six-game losing streak against their division rivals. Bills 34, Patriots 31 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Rian Lindell hit a 28yard field goal as time expired and Buffalo snapped a 15-game losing streak against New England and lifted its record to 3-0. Buffalo was in dramatic fashion, overcoming a 21-0 second-quarter deficit. It’s the second straight week the Bills rallied; they overcame a 21-3 deficit in a 3835 win over Oakland last week. Ryan Fitzpatrick went 27 of 40 for 369 yards with two TDs as Buffalo beat its AFC East rival for the first time since the 2003 opener. It was the third-longest losing streak against one opponent in NFL history. Tom Brady went 30 of 45 for 386 yards and four scores for New England (21). Despite setting a league record for most yards passing over a three-game stretch, Brady matched a career high with four interceptions. Among them was Drayton Florence’s 27yarder for a TD. Titans 17, Broncos 14 NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Matt Hasselbeck threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Daniel Graham with 4:24 to completed left Tennessee’s rally. The Titans (2-1) lost Kenny Britt, the AFC’s leading receiver, when his right knee buckled in the second quarter. Hasselbeck turned to others, including Graham, whose first catch of the season came against his former team. Hasselbeck threw for 311 yards and two TDs. Kyle Orton was intercepted twice and sacked once, and the Titans also

Denver is 1-2. Lions 26, Vikings 23, OT MINNEAPOLIS — Matthew Stafford threw for 378 yards and two touchdowns to rally the Lions from a 20-0 halftime deficit, and Jason Hanson kicked a 32-yard field goal in overtime. Calvin Johnson had seven catches for 108 yards and two TDs for the Lions 3-0 for the first time since 1980. They won in the Metrodome for the first time since 1997, snapping a 13-game skid. Adrian Peterson rushed for 78 yards and a touchdown for the Vikings (0-3), who gave away a big halftime lead for the third week in a row. Packers 27, Bears 17 CHICAGO — Aaron
Rodgers threw for 297 yards and three touchdowns to Jermichael Finley, and Green Bay shut down Jay Cutler. The stakes weren’t as high as the previous meeting, when the Packers left Soldier Field celebrating the NFC title on the way to the championship. Even so, they gave the Bears (1-2) more headaches. Rodgers led the charge, completing 28 of 38 passes. He threw his first interception of the season, when Brian Urlacher picked him off with the Packers (3-0) leading 27-17 in the fourth quarter. The Bears took over at their own 45, but two penalties holding by Chris Spencer and unnecessary roughness on Devin Hester for a confrontation with Sam Shields ended any shot they had at a comeback.

Saints 40, Texans 33 NEW ORLEANS — Drew Brees passed for 370 yards and three touchdowns, and twice led New Orleans back from fourthquarter deficits. Mark Ingram’s first career touchdown on a 13yard run gave the Saints (2-1) the lead for good with under 3 minutes left. Brees was intercepted twice, but redeemed himself with all of his TD passes in the second half, including a 27yarder to tight end Jimmy Graham and a 16-yarder to Lance Moore. Matt Schaub passed for 373 yards and three TDs of his own, and the Texans’ prolific offense moved the ball well for most of the game. Houston (2-1) was doomed in the end by four drives inside the 20 that resulted in only field goals. Panthers 16, Jaguars 10 CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cam Newton didn’t pass for a ton of yards, he simply found Greg Olsen over the middle for a 16-yard touchdown with 4:20 left to list Carolina (1-2). Newton, the No. 1 overall draft pick, also found Olsen for the ensuing 2point conversion that helped Carolina rally from a 10-5 halftime deficit. The win also marked the first for coach Ron Rivera with the Panthers. 16, Buccaneers Falcons 13 TAMPA, Fla. — Josh Freeman scored the first rushing touchdown of his career and Tampa Bay’s defense forced three turnovers and sacked Matt Ryan four times. The normally unflappable Freeman did a little bird dance in celebration of his quarterback sneak that snapped a 3-3 tie in the second quarter, and the Bucs (2-1) went on to end a
five-game losing streak in the series between NFC South rivals. Four of those losses were by six or fewer points. Tampa Bay’s defense forced two first-half fumbles with sacks. Ronde Barber intercepted a pass to stop an Atlanta threat just before halftime, and the Falcons (1-2) were stopped on downs inside the Bucs 10 early in the fourth quarter. Raiders 34, Jets 24 OAKLAND, Calif. — Darren McFadden ran for 171 yards and two touchdowns and Oakland bullied the two-time defending AFC runners-up on the ground to win their home opener. Denarius Moore scored on a 23-yard reverse and Michael Bush added a 1yard TD run 42 seconds later as the Raiders (2-1) took control in a dizzying span beginning late in the third quarter to hand the Jets (2-1) their first loss. Mark Sanchez had a much rougher second trip to Oakland in his career, getting bloodied on one of Oakland’s four second-half sacks and needing a visor to protect a cut on his face. It was a far different end than his game here two years ago, when he memorably was eating a hot dog on the sideline in the closing minutes of a 38-0 victory that was the most lopsided home loss in Raiders history. Ravens 37, Rams 7 ST. LOUIS — Rookie Torrey Smith’s first three career catches went for touchdowns totaling 133 yards in the first quarter, sparking a franchise record-setting day on offense by Baltimore. The Ravens (2-1) got back on their game and then some after stumbling in a loss at Tennessee.

Stewart getting on a roll Driver wins at New Hampshire
2219679
LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Tony Stewart made it 2 for 2 in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, pulling ahead when Clint Bowyer ran out of gas with two laps left to win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday. Stewart is on a roll when the season matters most, following last week’s Chase opening victory at Chicagoland Speedway with another strong performance at New Hampshire. Both of his victories this season have come in the Chase and have propelled him to the top of the points standings. The outcome was a complete reversal of the race at New Hampshire last fall, when Stewart’s tank ran dry a lap from the checkered flag and Bowyer pounced for the victory. “If that’s not a flip-flop from last year, I don’t know what is,” Stewart said over the radio as he neared the finish line. Four other Chase drivers finished in the top 10. Brad Keselowski was second, Jeff Gordon was fourth, Matt Kenseth was

Tony Stewart is doused by his crew after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at New Hamphsire Motor Speedway Sunday in Loudon, N.H. sixth and Carl Edwards finished eighth. Stewart, a two-time Cup champion, is the second driver to ever open the Chase with consecutive victories. He overtook Kevin Harvick for the points lead and made himself the car to beat after a rather pedestrian regular season. Even Stewart counted himself out him before the Chase, declaring he would call himself, “a total bumbling idiot,” if he won the championship. He might win his third title but don’t expect Smoke to call himself a favorite. “Got eight long weeks still, man,” Stewart said. “It’s way too early to start counting chickens.” It’s not too early to
start counting some out. Denny Hamlin, who entered in 12th and a whopping 41 points out, finished 29th and was the worst Chase finisher. A year after he went into the finale with the points lead, Hamlin’s shot at his first championship is over. Other Chase driver results saw Kyle Busch finish 11th; Harvick 12th; Dale Earnhardt Jr. 17th; Jimmie Johnson 18th; Kurt Busch 22nd; and Ryan Newman 25th. Fuel mileage was a deciding factor in the Chase opener with several contenders falling away when they ran out of fuel. Bowyer, still looking for at least one victory this season before he leaves
Richard Childress Racing, seemingly had this one until the very end. He wound up 26th. Stewart couldn’t believe his good fortune a year after the same problem derailed his shot at a victory. “I know exactly what that feels like,” Stewart said. “I know exactly how he feels right now. I saw him slowing down the back and I thought, ‘Oh, no, you’re kidding me. That’s not the way you want to win it.” Greg Biffle, the only other driver to open the Chase with two straight wins, was third. Brian Vickers was fifth. Round 3 of the Chase is next week at Dover International Speedway.
■ CONTINUED FROM 9 Dalton’s first dismal performance. He threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter, the first of his career. The 49ers sent that small crowd heading for the exits when Reggie Smith intercepted Dalton’s throw with 1:45 left. “We started fast, which is what you come out to do,” said Dalton, who led the Bengals to an opening field goal. “We were flat after that. We couldn’t do the
things we wanted to do.” David Akers kicked two field goals for San Francisco, including a 53yarder after Dalton’s first interception, pushing the lead to 13-6. After Smith intercepted Dalton again with 1:45 to go, punter Andy Lee ran out of the end zone for a safety to finish it with 2 seconds left. Those last few minutes by the 49ers decided an ugly game overall: 12 punts, two field goals combined through three quarters.
■ National Football League
Browns ■ CONTINUED FROM 9 McCoy worked the ball down to Miami’s 14, picking up a key fourth-and-4 conversion and helped along by an offsides penalty on Dolphins end Jason Taylor. On first down at the 14, McCoy made the defining play of his still budding NFL career. Dropping back, he pump faked before lofting a perfect pass to the right corner over rookie cornerback Jimmy Wilson and to a leaping Massaquoi. “My best throw of the day,” McCoy said. “Mo did a
nice job and got that guy (Wilson) to bite just a little bit. He wasn’t that open, but in the NFL, when they’re like that, you just gotta make a good throw. Mo did a great job of getting his feet in. It was a great feeling.” McCoy’s composure on the tense final drive comforted his teammates. He knew what it would take to win. “Colt was relaxed,” Massaquoi said. “Nobody was panicking and nobody was worrying. The mindset was just to go down there and get a touchdown.”

Safe Talking in Cyberspace One of Michael’s favorite activities is visiting a Web site where he plays games. He also visits a chat room to swap game tips and learn new gaming strategies. One day he chats with someone called “Gamester13.” They trade game tips, and after a while the conversation turns to other subjects. It turns out they both like science fiction books. They also saw and liked the same movie recently. After about 30 minutes of chat,
Publisher Scramble: cyberspace
“Gamester13” asks, “Do you like to play sports?” Michael answers, “Yes.” Gamester13 asks, “Which sport do you like best?” “Soccer,” Michael replies. Gamester13 then asks, “What’s the name of your team?” Before Michael can answer, Gamester13 says, “Gotta go. My boss is coming.” Michael is surprised and upset. Worried, he stays away from cyber-

space for a few days. Michael believed hew was talking to a boy his own age. Michael’s team is called the Tenafly Tigers. Tenafly is the name of the town he lives in.
Test Yourself 1. What made Micheal believe that he was talking to someone his own age? 2. Why should Michael not give out the name of his soccer team? 3. What should Michael do when he feels uncomfortable in cyberspace? What would you do?
Michael was very upset when he realized that “Gamester13” was not a 13-year old but a grown-up with a job. People in cyberspace aren’t always who you think they are. Maybe “Gamester13” was pretending to be a kid. Maybe he was up to no good. Then, again, maybe he just likes to play online games for fun. The point is, with strangers in cyberspace, you can’t be sure.

Did You Know?
Dealing With Online Bullies What would you do? For the 10th day in a row, Andrew opens an email that says, “I’m getting closer.” Doesn’t recognize the sender’s address. He wonders if someone at school is trying to scare him. On the other hand, it could be a stranger. Whatever the source, Andrew is scared. The next afternoon, Andrew is home alone. The emails come every few minutes. “I’m hiding in your house using a wireless Internet connection. You’ll never find me. But I’ll find you.” Frozen with fear, Andrew can’t think what to do. If he called for advice what would you tell him? Sondra is planning a slumber party to celebrate her birthday. Her parents have a set limit of eight girls, so Sondra can’t invite everyone she’d like. Two girls who are left out overhear the plans. Angry, they plan their revenge. The girls make a “We Hate Sondra Jones” group on a social networking site. They say that anyone invited to the party should not go. They tell everyone in school the group’s address. The girls invite everyone to add new reasons why they hat Sondra and to spread ugly rumors about her. When Sondra hears about the group address, she gets a sick feeling in her stomach. Unable to ignore it, she checks the site often. Each day she finds a new nasty comment or joke about her. She feels hurt and powerless to defend herself. Sondra is too embarrassed to go to school and tells her parents she is sick.
Take Action! Both Sondra and Andrew are the targets of online bullies. Whether bullies are face to face or in cyber-
space, they feel powerful when they bother other people. They may use hurtful words or threaten. Online or off, bullying is meant to make you feel uncomfortable. Usually, online bullying does not cross over into real life, but it can. Wither way, it’s upsetting. Bullying should not be tolerated, whether in school or in cyberspace. Trust your uncomfortable feelings — they mean something is wrong. Here is what to do about it. • Sign off the computer. • Leave the chat room or Web site. • Block the bully’s messages. • Save and print the bully’s emails or your message logs. • Never reply to a bully. • Talk over how to hand the situation with a friend. • Report your experience to a parent, teacher, or other trusted adult.
Be Cyber-smart! If you feel at-risk because some-

one has your private identity information, tell your parents or a trusted adult right away. Write a letter to the editor giving your opinion of bullying.
A Few Words About Passwords You might have a password to use on a school computer or use for email. Passwords protect you. Without a password, no one can pretend to be you. So don’t share your passwords with other kids — only with your parents. And never give your password in cyberspace. Even if someone says “Please!”
What’s Private? • full (first and last) name • street address • name of school • school address • email address • phone numbers • passwords • calling card number • mother’s maiden name • parent’s place of work • photos in which you can be recognized
Email Dos and Don’ts • Do get right to the point and keep your message to one screen. People who get tons of messages every day will thank you. Also, it is okay to skip the “Dear” part in emails. • Don’t TYPE WHOLE SENTENCES IN UPPERCASE letters. It is like SHOUTING. • Do use uppercase once in a while to emphasize a single word. • Do check your spelling, grammar, and punctuation before sending an email. • Do use smileys, also known as emoticons. These symbols help people understand your meaning when they can’t see your face or hear your voice. • Don’t write a message that you would not want everyone to see. Although it is bad manners, somebody might forward your message to others. • Do write only what you would say to a person’s face. • Don’t use slang or rude language. • Do type your first name at the end of your message. • Don’t send angry messages back and forth. That’s called a flame war and it is considered bad manners.
Forgive others for their bad manners and set a good example for yourself. Smileys :-) means you are smiling :-( means you are frowning ;-) means you are winking and just kidding :-D means you are laughing
uncomfortable — causing discomfort or distress; irritating; painful
