Chase streak coming to end?

Incomes still nearly flat WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans are making a little more money and spending a lot more.

Under normal circumstances, that would be a troubling sign for the economy. But a closer look at some new government figures suggests another possibility: People are saving less money because they’re earning next to nothing in interest.

Saving is already difficult because of more expensive gas and food. It’s even tougher because of STAFF PHOTOS/ANTHONY WEBER the lower returns the flip side of OinkADoodleMoo founder and President Mark Peebles takes a bite of one of OinkADoodleMoo’s award- super-low interest rates that the Federal Reserve has kept in place winning, slow-smoked barbecue sandwiches Thursday at the Troy location. since 2008 to help the economy.

Critics say the Fed is punishing those who play by the rules those careful enough to set aside money for savings or people who built up a nest egg and are living on fixed incomes that depend on interest.

ohn Webb was a top salesperson at a Dayton area furniture chain, and a barbecue lover. He was a regular at the various barbecue restaurants in the Dayton area, but gradually, a locally-based chain with a unique name became his favorite.

“I just fell in love with the food.

And the concept,” Webb, 41, said of OinkA-DoodleMoo, a two-year-old, Englewood-based, quick-serve barbecue chain.

Webb spent about six months last year securing financing, including the $35,000 franchise fee, and Thursday, his dream came true. He opened the doors to the newest OinkADoodleMoo barbecue restaurant, 1600 W. Main

The 2,000-square-foot location formerly was the site of a Fox’s Pizza, which closed earlier this year.

“This is something I’ve wanted for a long time,” Webb said with a grin Friday during an interview inside the Troy restaurant that included company cofounder Mark Peebles.

The Troy store employs a staff of 28 and Peebles pegged the total investment required to get the Troy location up and running at about $350,000.

It’s the company’s fourth restaurant, including the flagship store in Englewood, a franchise in Kettering and a mobile lunch trailer at WrightPatterson Air Force Base.

Peebles said the Englewood store always drew a large number of customers from the Troy area, “so very

shortly after we opened (in Englewood), Troy became a target market for expansion for us,” he said.

Webb said he looked at other sites, including south Dayton, but soon identified Troy as the site for his new store, noting Troy’s healthy business climate and the “exposure” the city receives from the annual Troy Strawberry Festival.

(OinkADoodleMoo was voted Best Culinary at the 2011 festival.)

“I saw the potential and I knew I wanted to be up here,” said Webb, who lives in east Dayton and is a husband and father of three, including a 12-weekold.

A destination Troy also was attractive to Webb because there are few other barbecue restaurants to compete with in Miami County. Conversely,

Mayor • Continued from Page 1 “Out-of-the-box thinking will have to be considered because these villages could collapse financially,” she said. “Safety services will have to be a top priority within any entity. Fletcher has lost their local emergency service and a local police department. This situation may have to be discussed and refocused for better safety conditions within the village.”

Sullenberger said the reason she is the best candidate for the office of mayor is, “I am not a politician. So if I am elected, I am going to try some old-fashioned common sense in trying to solve problems within Fletcher.

Common sense, along with knowledge, is an appropriate trait for administrative decisions.

“Collaborations and combining services with other entities might be options to consider. There appears to be a lack of communication concerning the village business. As mayor, I would welcome the input and perspectives of all voices in our community, even from those

who disagree,” she said.

Sullenberger also said she’s “a politically incorrect person.”

“I do not intentionally offend people, but I figure you can’t argue with the truth no matter how much you don’t want to hear it or accept it. Anyway, political correctness denies reality and rejects common sense.”

Dan McEowen, 59, also has served on the Fletcher village council for the last nine years. A graduate of Miami East High School and Upper Valley Career Center, McEowen said he understands the scope of village responsibilities and infrastructure changes for its future.

“We are in the process for trying to get state and federal grant money to redo State Route 36, including curbs and sidewalks,” McEowen said. “I’d like to see that project through completion.”

McEowen also said he’d like to see upgrades to the village’s playground equipment and to the park grounds, if funds were available.

“I’ve been on the council since 2002 and I have been involved with all the town’s activities and have knowledge of what’s going in the village,” he said.

McEowen said he enjoyed being part of the council to help with the village’s recent upgrades of its sewers, and although he won’t make any promises, he hopes to serve the village as mayor “to do what is best with the resources we have.”

At the same time, what they earned was mostly flat. Pay increased 0.3 percent, and overall income just 0.1 percent. After deducting taxes and adjusting for inflation, income fell for a third straight month.

So to make up the difference, many have cut back on savings. The savings rate fell to its lowest level since December 2007, the first month of the recession and right about the time the Fed started its dramatic series of interest-rate cuts.

Considering how little you can get for parking your money at a bank, it hasn’t been a tough choice.

The annual yield on sixmonth certificates of deposit was unchanged this week at 0.23 percent, according to Bankrate. com. Five years ago, it was 3.62 percent. If you put your money in the sixmonth CD today, you’d make about enough to buy a burger.

Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, said the trend could mean more spending

by Americans. But it will take robust personal spending along with improvement in the depressed housing market to get the economy going again.

Ashworth said his firm is not too concerned with the decline in savings because it partly represents “a sharp decline in debt servicing costs.” In other words, low interest rates mean it’s cheaper to borrow money.

Newberry Twp. voters asked to OK fire levy NEWBERRY TWP. — Voters in Newberry Township will be asked on Nov. 8 to approve a 1.5mill, five-year replacement levy for fire protection services.

The Covington and Bradford fire departments each receive funding from the levy, which will generate $93,028 per year, according to Bradford Fire Chief Jan Mottinger.

Covington Fire Chief Bill Westfall and Mottinger both said the revenue from the levy is very important to the operation of their departments.

“And we’ve had interest from (people in) Pittsburgh and Lansing, Mich.,” Gamerdella, a Chicago native, said Friday.

Webb said his longrange plans are to open “three or four” new OinkADoodleMoos in the northern Dayton market within the next five years.

While the Troy store opened quietly Thursday, Peebles and Webb say they plan to stage a week-long restaurant grand opening during the week of Nov. 28.

While he wouldn’t discuss specifics, Peebles promised “a big shindig for the whole week.”

Peebles also said that in the near future, the Troy location will offer premium ice cream, “so you can have a nice meal, and then get dessert without leaving the building,” he said.

The Americanism and Government test consists of 50 questions and an essay.

The essay question will be graded and used as a tiebreaker if needed, said Ball, adding that a winner will be selected from each school participating, with a Post Champion selected from the winners.

“Once a Post Champion is selected he or she will compete against other winners from the county or district. A district winner will then be selected to compete at the state level for the chance to compete at the state level,” Ball said.

A total of 18 winners at the state level will be selected — three male students and three female students each in grades of 10, 11 and 12 — by the Legion’s judges. The 18 state winners will be awarded an all-expenses paid trip to Gettysburg, Pa.,

and Washington, D.C., from March 5-10, 2012.

Ball said he is resurrecting the Legion’s Americanism and Government Test in the Troy area after years of dormancy. He said he has a committee from the post to assist in administering and judging the tests.

Troy is a member of the Legion’s 3rd District, consisting of posts in Miami, Darke, Montgomery, Greene, Clark, Champaign and Preble counties. Ball said a state winner last year came from a school in District 3.

“I think it’s important to get young students interested and knowledgeable in what our national government is and in our history,” Ball said.

ONLINE POLL

(WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM)

Question: Should the United States pull its troops out of Iraq by the end of the year?

— First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

AS I SEE IT KEITH A. YUNKER Troy In the Oct. 12, 2011 edition of the Troy Daily News, city council member Bobby Phillips presented a guest columnist opinion on why voters should vote yes for state issue 2. While I fully respect his past and present public service, I must fully object to Mr. Phillips’ position and his attempt to portray this issue as a simple financial and “fairness” issue.

There is nothing simple or fair about what state issue 2 attempts to do. The purpose of Senate Bill 5 (the basis of state issue 2) was to eliminate the right of public employees to collectively bargain many provisions of their employment contracts and then sell it to the public as a way to balance the budget of the state.

Mr. Phillips presented “four simple, straight forAs I ward reasons” to support issue 2 but never acknowledged the problems with the legislation.

When it comes to creating the include your full changes in the public employee systems, the state name and telehas provided very vague language and guidance phone number. for labor and management to work from. Yes, a framework is there, but the real problem is in the lack of details.

If enacted, provisions of SB 5 (such as new evaluation and retention systems) will require millions of dollars and untold amounts of manpower and efforts to create, and most likely will take large amounts of litigation to resolve. This is money and energy that could best be used in addressing real issues such as job creation and expanding the economy.

Everyone acknowledges that the city, state and nation are all facing financial difficulties and that it has been increasingly difficult for governments to balance their budgets. We also appreciate government officials that attempt to be good stewards of the public funds.

However, destroying the right of employees to negotiate the conditions of their employment is a heavy handed and shortsighted approach to dealing with fiscal issues. When management has issues with labor, they should sit down and work things out and not atempt to pass laws to prohibit negotiations.

The willingness to negtiate and compromise is a cornerstone of American democracy and politics, and the value of which seems to be forgotten by man politicians today. From the Constitutional Convention of 1787 through the presidencies of Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton (both of which had the opposing party controlling Congress), we have moved forward as a nation through compromise.

Now is not the time for partisan bickering and bullying. If the state feels that changes to collective bargaining laws and public employee contracts needed to be addressed they should have begun negotiations with the unions and not attempted to use the legislative process as a tool to destroy public employee unions.

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

LETTERS

Please support Miami East “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.”

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

To the Editor: I am writing in support of the Miami East School District levy on the November ballot.

As a long time member of the Miami County Educational Service Center Board I have seen how Miami East Schools have done a great job educating the young people of their district.

Dr. John Decker, our long time Superintendent at the ESC until his retirement last year, often stated that Miami East Superintendent Dr. Todd Rappold and his staff are doing the best job of any school district in the county in providing continued excellence in education with the dollars available.

Please support this excellence into the future.

— Dr. Robert G. Allen Troy

Vote Beitzel for law director To the Editor: We have known David Beitzel for more than 20 years as a former neighbor, friend and involved citizen in Troy.

David is a candidate for law director for the City of Troy. He is now and has been for some time an independent candidate for office. He has extensive experience in representing municipalities as their legal adviser for the cities of Akron, Oakwood, Miamisburg, Centerville, Beavercreek, Huber Heights and Dayton.

He is the only candidate with diverse and extensive community involvement serving on the board of The Family Abuse Center, past president of Troy Football Parents Association, past president of Troy Optimists Club and board member of Troy Civic Theater. Professionally, David is a member of the Miami County and Ohio State Bar Associations, past chair of the Ethics and Grievance Committee, a member of the Lawyers Assistance Program Inc., and mentor for Young

Lawyers as part of the Ohio Supreme Court Mentor Program.

The law director of the City of Troy acts as legal adviser and attorney for the city. He also appoints lawyers to provide fulltime prosecutorial services for Miami County through the county-wide Municipal Court. This makes it important to staff and provide accessibility to the prosecutor at all times. David Beitzel is committed to providing these services. He also considers it an important obligation to provide financial accountability for services rendered to taxpayers, the City of Troy and Miami County.

It is our opinion that David Beitzel, who is truly non-partisan, highly qualified and unaffected by other interests, is the best candidate for law director.

Please join us in voting for David Beitzel for law director for the City of Troy.

Thank you.

— Pete and Ruth Jenkins Troy

Please support mental health levy To the Editor: A Mental Health and Recovery Services renewal levy will appear on the ballot in Darke, Miami and Shelby Counties on Nov. 8. This is a five-year, 0.6-mill levy that will expire on Dec. 31. The passage of this levy is critical in assuring the availability of vital services for our community.

One in five tri-county residents are affected by mental illness or addiction each year.

Now more than ever, individuals are seeking help and encouraging loved ones to seek help when problems arise. Last year alone, the levy supported services that helped nearly 10,000 tri-county residents.

Those services supported by the Mental Health and Recovery levy include counseling and supportive services to children, families and adults, 24-hour crisis hotline, suicide prevention and education, and specialized programs such as the Tri-County CIT program for local law

enforcement.

In essence, these efforts help people have a more meaningful life and make our community a better place to live. Our community is fortunate to have such vital services locally available to assure that help is there when we need it.

Please join me in supporting this important local issue. Vote yes on the Mental Health and Recovery Services renewal levy on Nov. 8.

— Robert Menz Board Member of the TriCounty Board of Recovery and Mental Health Services

Support your local firefighters To the Editor: I am writing to ask you to support your local firefighters and police officers on Nov. 8 by voting no on State Issue 2. Voting no on Issue 2 repeals Senate Bill 5, making it easier for firefighters and police officers to do their jobs.

Gov. Kasich has told you that Issue 2 is about “reasonable reforms” and helping local governments balance their budgets.

Gov. Kasich is asking public employees to pay 10 percent of their pension and 15 percent of the cost of their health insurance.

What he does not say is that 93 percent of the 350,000 public employees negatively affected by Senate Bill 5 already pay 10 percent of their pension and at least 15 percent of their insurance cost. Public pension contributions are mandated by laws passed by the state legislature and are not subject to collective bargaining for the vast majority of public employees.

Thousands of public employees have taken pay cuts or freezes, accepted unpaid furlough days and made many other concessions to help local governments balance their budgets. We are willing to work with our local governments because we care about the communities we serve.

Help us to do our jobs by voting no on Issue 2.

DOONESBURY

It’s time for me to get my doctorate ... in moving Over the last four years, my husband and I have done far more of this than we’d like to admit.

It’s not that we’re gluttons for punishment, picky (OK, maybe a little) or just not wanting to commit, we’re just having a hard time finding the right “one.”

So for the fourth time in four years, we’re going to move.

It started when we moved from our tiny, tiny, (did I mention tiny) apartment in Cleveland Heights to my parents’ humble abode. We stayed with them for a few months so we could find a good place in the area, something that didn’t eat up our entire paychecks, but wouldn’t lend us any stints on “Cops” either (is that show even on anymore).

We found a wonderful town home, settled in for two years and then made an oopsie.

We procreated and suddenly, we needed an extra bedroom and a yard — on the giddy up.

So we moved into a cute twobedroom home in Kettering with a picturesque backyard and an unfinished basement to store unwanted boxes (or family members at that).

And then, we made an oopsie again.

Amanda Stewart Troy Daily News Columnist Just kidding (Ha, I bet everyone reading this thought I was pregnant)!

This time, we’re preparing for our next oopsie (which I should probably note that our first one was actually more of an intention and not so much a mistake).

We found something with a better location (now I can walk to all those hipster grocery stores I frequent) and a slightly smaller (and easier to mow), picturesque yard.

So while you’re all cozying up to each other, watching football and eating a bunch of chips, we’ll be moving — again.

We’ve learned a lot though, in our last four years of moving, so I figured maybe I’d provide a few tips for those of you who don’t have the moving bug, in case you

— Robert Bloom Piqua firefighter

find yourself faced with an “oopsie” down the road.

For starters, just throw everything away. Why bother packing when you can just toss that nearly ancient four-year-old television, surround system and less-than-ayear-old couch (it’s got stains anyway, right)? If you just toss everything it’ll save you the hassle of having to pack anything, which will make the move much shorter (but maybe a tad bit costlier).

Guess we better explore other options.

Be proactive when moving and don’t unpack anything to begin with. How much quicker would this whole process move if we didn’t have to bother putting things away anyway? Do those Snowman mugs really need to be out year round? Why not just leave everything in its proper place and just live out of multiple cardboard boxes? Aside from having a tiny child that would probably injure herself, this might just work.

Utilize garbage bags, the lazy mans cardboard box. Why try to fumble with folding all those boxes and tape when you can just throw all your belongings into a trash bag and call it a day?

And I’m not referring to my

first tip of actually throwing everything away, my tip here is to use a garbage bag as a vessel to transport all your junk (like those 15 ugly, scratchy, Christmas sweaters you’ll never wear again, but can’t live without).

Have a buffet and eat all the food you have in your house. If you clean out the cupboards and refrigerator before the move, then those are a few areas you won’t have to bother packing. And now you won’t have to worry about that block of tofu going bad because it’s been sitting out too long.

When in doubt, have good friends and family. Because I’m not really in a financial place to just throw all my stuff out, we’re going to have to move it all. This means we’re going to need a lot of extra hands to get all our extra things out.

And lucky for us, we’ve got a set of parents and best friends that really know when to come through.

Amanda Stewart appears Saturday in the Troy Daily News.

She’d like to thank her parents and The Bachers ahead of time for their assistance this weekend.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Don’t wait until you’re too stressed out to cope Dear Annie: I am a 17-year-old male and a senior in high school.

Lately, I've been feeling more depressed than usual. At first, I thought it was the stress of starting school again, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I did a little research online, and I do have some signs that I might be clinically depressed.

I do not know what to do.

Should I just ignore it? I mean, I've had it for a while already, and I don't have any thoughts of suicide or harming myself. I do not want to tell my parents. They don't need any more stress, and I'm pretty sure my dad would just tell me to "suck it up." Please help.

— Stressed Out Dear Stressed: Your parents should know about your depression, but if you cannot talk to them about it, please discuss it with your school counselor, a favorite teacher or one of your friend's parents. If you have a checkup scheduled, talk to your doctor. It is normal to feel down in the dumps occasionally, especially when there are external reasons.

But if the feeling persists, it may require some type of intervention.

Please don't wait until you are too stressed to cope.

Dear Annie: I have been married to "George" for more than 20 years. For most of this time, there has been tension (to put it mildly) between my husband and my mother. He rubs her the wrong way, she snipes at him, and he snipes back. I've had several conversations with them over the years, asking them to be more tolerant of each other, if only for my sake. That works for a while, but eventually, they return to their old ways.

What is bizarre is that my mother is normally a lovely, compassionate, considerate and caring person. She is a totally different person with George. I admit that my husband can be strong-willed and obstinate at times, but he has never deserved the treatment my mother gives him.

I try to see Mom separately in order to avoid the drama of their interactions, but there are certain family events and holidays when I would prefer not to choose between them. And it never fails that if I convince George to attend a family function, something is said that starts the sniping again.

Short of giving them joint counseling sessions for Christmas, what can I do? — Caught in the Middle and Hate It Dear Caught: Your mother may be jealous of your husband.

This occasionally can happen with some parents when a child marries, and if you call it to her attention, she will consider the possibility. But it's just as likely that your husband's personality simply irritates her to no end. You cannot control how other people behave or whether they like each other.

You can ignore them, see them separately or remove yourself when the sniping becomes too annoying.

We recommend a combination of the three, as needed.

Dear Annie: Although my husband and I are only in our early 60s, we, too, feel the pain of being ignored by our adult children and can identify all too well with "Glendora, Calif."

We understand their busy schedules, but they never call just to say hello or ask how we are. We have rare opportunities to see them — annual birthday parties for the grandchildren and weekend sporting events during the school years.

The sad thing is that we have done nothing to deserve this. We were always attentive to our sons and fail to see why we get this shameful treatment.

I never ignored my parents, who both passed away last year. I always greeted them with a hug and a kiss, as well as an inquiry as to their well-being.

Years ago, our son said that the worst thing in life is regret. He may find that out for himself someday. — California Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Call buttons probably need a test ‘push’ Dear Heloise: We need your help. I thought of you because you reach so many people, and our loved ones deserve this one basic need to be met. It won’t cost anyone a cent, and it is easy to do.

Our friends and relatives who are patients and residents of facilities that use call buttons — independent and assisted-living facilities, nursing homes, hospitals, etc. — are depending on us.

Anytime your friend or family member begins at a new facility, please test the call buttons. They often are found beside the bed and in the bathroom. We expect them to

Hints from Heloise Columnist work.

Make sure they are plugged in. Do they light up at the nurses’ station? Do they light up outside the door in the hallway? Do they sound an alarm somewhere? — Pat King, Cypress, Texas Pat, you are right, and this is a hint I’m happy to pass

along. — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: Christine in San Antonio sent a picture of her beautiful Lab mix, Sasha, doing morning stretching exercises with her daddy before going to the doggie park. To see Sasha and our other Pet Pals, go to www.Heloise.com and click on “Pets.” — Heloise SHOE STORAGE Dear Heloise: I store my out-of-season shoes in large, plastic storage boxes. I’m finding the lining on some of the shoes eaten away and cracked. Sometimes there is nothing left over in the shoe

— the lining is gone. I don’t see any bugs. This is so creepy. Have you ever heard of this problem? We live in Houston. — M.M. in Texas Let me see if I can help. I am guessing that your shoes are leather. Leather needs air circulating around it, so storing leather shoes in plastic long term is not the best method. Plastic storage boxes can give off a gas, which might be what’s causing the lining to dissolve.

Keeping leather boots in the summer or sandals in the winter in a breathable cotton bag is what experts recommend. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE Saturday, Oct. 29, 2011 Your chart shows that in the year ahead you could now receive some well-deserved rewards and recognition where you’ve previously been taken for granted. A new you, who might be a pretty tough cookie, will start to emerge.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — It’s nice of you to do a favor for someone, but make sure you don’t do so in a manner that leaves the person feeling tremendously obligated to you. Let him or her know that there are no strings attached.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — An acquaintance who isn’t particularly popular with your peer group could use some reassurance. Let this person know that you, at least, can be counted on as a friend.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You have greater fortitude than you may realize. You may find out just how much backbone you have, if you should feel threatened or challenged in any way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Usually it’s not wise to offer unsolicited advice, but someone to whom you have a close attachment might be able to profit from one of your past experiences. If so, speak up.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — If you believe something you’re doing is having a negative effect on your finances, by all means make corrections. It’s up to you to protect your interests.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Because you’re not likely to dodge difficult jobs, people or situations, your chances for achieving your goals will be heightened considerably. You’ll take things as they come.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — Assistants and sidekicks will be watching every move you make in hopes of picking up some of your secrets to success.

Do a good job, because they will follow what you do to the letter.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Someone you’d least suspect could step up and be the one who’ll help you accomplish something you can’t do on your own. This newfound alliance will prove to be of benefit to both parties.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Meet your assignments head-on, even those that aren’t to your liking. Once you get into them, you’ll find they aren’t as difficult or distasteful as you thought.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Be satisfied with small gains instead of trying to make one huge, impressive killing.

When all the little stuff is put together, it’ll have a way of adding up into being something quite substantial.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Most things in general will be favorable for you, but your best possibilities for gain are likely to come from commercial or financial involvements. What you accomplish will be impressive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Of course it’s important for you to view developments realistically, but not to the point of taking things so seriously that you lose your sense of perspective.

Smile frequently.

wound to his leg, and would spend the night at the hospital before being released into police custody.

State Prosecutor Dubravko Campara identified the shooter as Mevlid Jasarevic, from Novi Pazar, the administrative capital of the southern Serbian region of Sandzak, who was tried in Austria for robbery in 2005.

Campara said Jasarevic had crossed the Serbian border into Bosnia Friday morning. He said Jasarevic had two hand grenades with him when he was arrested and is also currently under investigation

by Serbian police, but did not detail why.

Serbian Interior Minister Ivica Dacic confirmed his identity and said he is 23 years old.

Bosnian TV said Jasarevic is a Wahhabi follower.

The Wahhabis are an extremely conservative branch which is rooted in Saudi Arabia and linked to religious militants in parts of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Western intelligence reports have alleged that the tense, impoverished area of Sandzak, along with Muslim-dominated regions in Bosnia, are rich ground for recruiting socalled “white al-Qaida” Muslims with Western features who could easily blend into European or U.S. cities and carry out attacks.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Saturday, Oct. 29, the 302nd day of 2011. There are 63 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 29, 1929, Wall Street crashed on “Black Tuesday,” heralding the beginning of America’s Great Depression.

On this date: In 1618, Sir Walter Raleigh, the English courtier, military adventurer and poet, was executed in London.

Terrorist opens fire outside U.S. Embassy SARAJEVO, BosniaHerzegovina (AP) — A man armed with hand grenades and an automatic weapon has opened fire outside the U.S. Embassy in Bosnia in what authorities called a terrorist attack. A policeman and the gunman were wounded, but the embassy said none of its employees was hurt.

Sarajevo Mayor Alija Behmen said Friday that the gunman “got off a tram with a Kalashnikov and started shooting at the American Embassy.”

Witnesses told Bosnian television that the man urged pedestrians to move away, saying he was targeting only the embassy.

He wore a beard and was dressed in an outfit with short pants that reveal his ankles typical for followers of the conservative Wahhabi branch of Islam.

One police officer guarding the building was wounded before police surrounded the gunman. After a 30-minute standoff, the sound of a single shot echoed and AP video showed the shooter slump to the ground.

Police arrested the wounded man who one of Bosnia’s three presidents said is a foreigner and took him away in an ambulance as pedestrians cowered behind buildings and vehicles. Hospital spokeswoman Biljana Jandric told The Associated Press the gunman had a minor

Power Tools Banned CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR has banned the use of power tools when teams are transferring fuel.

The decision Thursday is in response to a fuel fire next to Regan Smith’s hauler at Talladega Superspeedway. The fire broke out as spouts from gas cans were being removed so excess fuel could be poured into storage.

A spark from a power tool apparently ignited gas inside one can. No one was hurt in the fire, which sent thick clouds of black smoke through the garage.

There was no previous rule as to how the spouts could be removed. This is the first year these cans have been used.

Roush denies ‘Ford only’ edict

UPS is ending its primary sponsorship of David Ragan and will become an associate sponsor for Carl Edwards.

UPS also says it will be Edwards’ primary sponsor for the Sprint Cup Series race at Kentucky.

The shift leaves Roush Fenway Racing in search of two primary sponsors for its 2012 Sprint Cup program.

The team has not yet announced sponsorship for championship contender Matt Kenseth.

The team has announced sponsorship for Greg Biffle, and is steadily putting together its funding package for Sprint Cup Series points leader Edwards.

UPS Ending Deal

CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR has issued fourweek suspensions to the crew chiefs and car chiefs for Martin Truex Jr., David Reutimann and Bobby Labonte.

Chad Johnson, Rodney Childers and Frank Kerr also were fined $50,000 each, and the drivers docked 25 points apiece.

The penalties are from illegal windshields discovered during Friday inspection at Talladega Superspeedway.

NASCAR says they did not have the appropriate thickness. Also suspended were car chiefs Steve Channing, Raymond Fox and Anthony Lunders.

The windshields were never used in competition.

The teams say they will not appeal the penalties.

NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson climbs out of his car following qualifying for the Good Sam Club 500 race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala., Saturday.

Out of contention?

Johnson’s Chase streak could be coming to an end CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — It’s easy for outsiders to cross Jimmie Johnson off the list of title contenders. They don’t work side by side with the five-time defending NASCAR champion every week, and have no idea just how hard it is to beat him.

It’s a whole different story, though, when those inside the NASCAR garage publicly dismiss him the way rival team owner Jack Roush did two weeks ago at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

“You can’t expect to get a mulligan,” Roush said after Johnson’s 34th-place finish at Charlotte.

“You’ll be very lucky if somebody will give you a chance to make up the whole race. I thought that Jimmie Johnson would be a factor in it and he’s definitely going to have to stand in line and wait for the other folks in the top five to have problems for him to get back in it. He won’t race his way back in it. He won’t finish high enough above the top four or five cars to beat them on the racetrack. He’ll have to wait for them to have trouble I think.”

Johnson has indeed taken a tum-

ble since his win three races ago at Kansas pushed him to third in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship standings. He had a hard wreck at Charlotte that cost him five spots in the standings, but as he headed to Talladega Superspeedway, where he had won in the spring, it was conceivable that he’d make up some ground.

Instead, Johnson and Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. waited too long to make their move through the field, and Johnson finished 26th.

He’s now ranked seventh in the standings, 50 points behind leader Carl Edwards, with four races remaining in the Chase.

“We just keep grinding them out,” Johnson said after Talladega. “We’ll just keep fighting. Every position counts. Every spot counts. And I want to finish as high as I can in the points. If it isn’t the championship, I want to finish as high as I can possibly finish. So we’re going to keep fighting hard.”

Johnson’s been counted out before, and he’s been counted out this year.

In last season’s Chase, Denny Hamlin had him on the ropes until he coughed away the title in the final two races. Johnson, ignoring what Hamlin did each week, simply concentrated on his own performance and was in position to capitalize when Hamlin faltered.

This year has been below average

by Johnson’s standards, and with just one win in the “regular season” people were ready to write him off after a disappointing run at New Hampshire in Round 2 of the Chase.

Those same people sure looked silly a week later when a secondplace finish at Dover moved him up five spots in the standings to fifth.

Then his win at Kansas had the points lead well within reach.

Just like that, it slipped through his fingers, and his entire comeback came undone.

But his last three weeks should be evidence enough that it can all change in the blink of an eye.

“It can happen to any of us,” Edwards said. “Obviously, the more points we can get on the guys in the Chase the better, but it’s obvious that could happen to anyone.”

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR team owner Jack Roush disputes a “Ford only” edict existed at Talladega Superspeedway, even though there’s plenty of evidence to suggest otherwise.

Roush Fenway “At Racing we expect our individual drivers to make decisions that put themselves in the best position to win each and every race,” Roush said in response to mounting criticism over the closing laps of Sunday’s race.

“That is a philosophy that we have lived by for over two decades, and one that we will continue to abide by going forward. Of course, as in any team, we would prefer for our drivers to work together when possible.

“However, to be clear, we did not micromanage or dictate to any of our drivers, nor any other Ford drivers, how to race with other drivers at Talladega last Sunday.”

That’s not how it looked, beginning with the very first practice session at Talladega.

Tony Stewart had worked with Ford driver David Gilliland in the first three restrictor-plate races of the season. But after the first practice at Talladega, Stewart said he was looking for a new drafting partner because the Ford drivers were committed to working only with Ford drivers.

Gilliland didn’t really deny that Ford drivers had to be focused on fellow Ford drivers, particularly championship contenders Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth.

The two Roush Fenway Racing drivers are in the thick of the race for the Sprint Cup title.

“When you lay out your initial plans, you have to think of the big picture and Ford does a lot for us and we would really like to see a Ford win this championship,” Gilliland said.

Then came Sunday’s race, when if it hadn’t been clear already that the blue oval bunch was sticking together, Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne ditched Chevrolet driver Jeff Gordon.

Gordon was seventh on the final restart and thought Bayne was committed to pushing him over the last two laps. Instead, Bayne backed off, and Gordon, with no help, faded to 27th.

IndyCar has issues to fix beyond Wheldon accident

By The Associated Press IndyCar made gains this year in building a buzz about the series that many believed would carry over into the 2012 season.

Even so, there was obvious work that still had to be done during the offseason.

Though the investigation of two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon’s death now takes top priority, other pressing issues can’t be forgotten.

First up is the 2012 car that Wheldon, the primary

test driver, helped develop.

The investigation into Wheldon’s death the result of a 15-car accident in the early laps of the Oct. 16 season finale at Las Vegas could reveal information that potentially could be applied to the car.

Four-time series champion Dario Franchitti got his first laps in the car this week during a two-day test at Sebring, and said Thursday that drivers have a long way to go in getting the car ready for next season.

“I’m really appreciative of Dallara naming the car after Dan; he did put a lot of work into it, and he did a really good job of not telling us anything,” Franchitti said. “He was very secretive about what went on so he didn’t give anyone an advantage, and a few of us tried to tap him for information.

“We’re at the beginning of a long development process. … We still have a lot of work to do. It will be a busy couple of months.”

Although the new car

has been touted as both safer and technologically improved, Wheldon’s accident has led to a call for a variety of new features such as increased horsepower, less downforce and a closed canopy cockpit, which driver Will Power said isn’t realistic.

“It’s no question better than the old car, a little easier to drive and it’s definitely faster,” said Power, who has tested. “But I think a canopy itself would be a very long-term project.

You’ve got to be able to get

out of the car if there happened to be a fire; you’ve got to be able to be extracted quickly. It’s not something that can be put on in the next three months.”

Franchitti also downplayed the calls for a canopy.

“This is the problem with these knee-jerk things,” said Franchitti, “how big a canopy would there have had to have been for Dan to survive?

How thick would it have had to have been? You know?”

Shawnee ends Tipp’s perfect season

BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@tdnpublishing.com The Tippecanoe Red Devils can find some solace in the aftermath of Friday’s showdown against Springfield Shawnee.

No matter what, they’ll still be playing next week in the postseason.

It was clear from the onset Friday night how the Central Buckeye Conference Kenton Trail Division championship game and regular season finale at Tipp City Park would go, though, as the Braves scored on four of their five first-half pos-

Tippecanoe finished the regular season 9-1 and was the runner-up with a 4-1 CBC Kenton Trail record. Now the Devils can only wait to find out who and where they will be playing in the first round of the Division II, Region 8 playoffs.

NBA cancels games through Nov. 30 The NBA will play a shortened season if it plays at all after labor negotiations broke down for the second time in a week.

NBA Commissioner David Stern canceled all November games on Friday, the 120th day of the lockout.

“It’s not practical, possible or prudent to have a full season now,” said Stern, who previously canceled the first two weeks of the season.

Troy rolls to win over Sidney in regular season finale

BY DAVID FONG Executive Editor fong@tdnpublishing.com What amounted to little more than a final tune-up before next week’s playoff game for most of the Troy football team ended up being the opporunity of a lifetime for the younger players.

With all of Troy’s starters resting comfortably on the bench the entire second half of the Trojans’ 53-6 win over Sidney Friday in the regular season finale, the junior varsity players got their chance to shine — and made the most of the opportunity.

None shone brighter than sophomore running back Josh Detrick. In the first varsity action of his career, Detrick carried the ball seven times for 97 yards and both of Troy’s second half touchdowns.

“It was just amazing,” Detrick said. “All of our hearts were pumping. The adrenaline we had was just amazing. It was the best feeling I’ve ever had playing football.”

As excited as Troy’s junior varsrity players were playing in the game, the Trojans’ starters — who built a 41-0 halftime lead before retiring to the bench for the final two quarters — were almost as excited watching

“It was fun watching them — I’m glad they got their chance,” said Troy starting running back Marcus Foster, who finished with 136 rushing yards and a pair of touchdowns on just six carries in the first half. “They got the opportunity to show what they can do. We just had to come out strong, get the lead and give the JV their opportunity to play.

They were all really pumped up on the sidelines.”

With the win, Troy finished the regular season 8-2 (3-1 in the Greater Western Ohio Conference North Division).

Sidney fell to 0-10 (0-4). Troy — which had already secured a Division I playoff berth going into the game — will have to wait to see what team it plays in the first round and where that game will be played. The Ohio High School Athletic Association

Devils ■ CONTINUED FROM B1 awful lot of kids out there tonight that are playing next year,” Tippecanoe coach Charlie Burgbacher said. “We’re moving on.

There’s nothing we can do about this game now. Next week, we have a chance to redeem ourselves.”

Shawnee (10-0, 5-0 CBC Kenton Trail) showed how dominant it could be o the game’s first drive.

The Braves took the ball 75 yards in 16 plays, converting on three fourth downs along the way and chewing 7:30 off the clock.

On the key play of the drive — fourth-and-4 from the Tippecanoe 41 — quarterback Brad Jarzab watched as the ball was snapped over his head, but he recovered it on the run, rolled out and found James Williams for a 6yard gain. Three plays later, Alex McCrory converted his second fourthand-1 of the drive on a run up the middle, then two plays after that Jarzab broke lose on a 23-yard keeper for the game’s opening score.

McCrory then finished the first half with three touchdowns in the second quarter, two 1-yarders and a 9-yarder, to give the Braves a 28-0 edge.

“We just couldn’t simulate what they do in practice,” Burgbacher said.

“None of our guys could line up and do what Jarzab does. Or what McCrory does.

“We looked down their list of players on the roster — and all of those kids played in last year’s game.

We knew what we were getting into tonight. We just ran into an experienced, very well-coached team.”

And while a lot of attention gets thrown the way of 1,000-yard rusher and passer Jarzab and McCrory, who cracked 1,000 on the ground for the season Friday night, it was the Braves’ defense that truly won them the

Shawnee limited the CBC Kenton Trail’s leading rusher, sophomore Jacob Hall, to a mere 26 yards on 12 carries. As a team, the Devils ran the ball 23 times for 14 total yards for the game. In fact, Tippecanoe’s lone first down of the first half came on a 31-yard completion from Ben Hughes to Michael Collett with less than a minute before the break.

“Our kids have a lot of character. They played hard and won nine games this year,” Burgbacher said. “We just ran into a buzzsaw tonight.”

Tippecanoe’s lone score of the game came after Shawnee muffed a punt and the Devils recovered at the Braves’ 20. On fourth-and-8 from the 18, Hughes rolled out and found Collett to make it 28-7.

Shawnee answered, though, with a nine-play, 81-yard drive, highlighted by a 45-yard burst by McCrory and capped off on a 5-yard shovel pass from Jarzab to Nick Hines to make it 35-7.

Jarzab finished with 134 yards and two touchdowns through the air and 140 yards and two scores on the ground. McCrory added 116 yards and three touchdowns rushing.

Now Tippecanoe — which had already clinched a playoff spot in its first season in D-II after many years in D-III — now must wait to see how things shake out to

find out if it will be hosting a playoff spot. The Devils currently sit in third in the standings, with the top four teams hosting.

Cardinals win in 7 ST. LOUIS (AP) — The greatest World Series game ever, or one of the greatest?

Fans were debating the head-scratching decisions, amateurish mix-ups and mighty clutch performances of Game 6 on Friday, eagerly rehashing a series of performances unmatched in the championship’s 108-year history.

The St. Louis Cardinals were one strike from elimination not once but twice, rallying to beat the Texas Rangers 10-9 on David Freese’s home run in the 11th inning Thursday night and force the World Series to a Game 7 for the first time since 2002. St. Louis went on to take the title with a 6-2 victory Friday night.

“I’m sure someone already has invoked

Dickens,” said John Thorn, baseball’s official historian.

“It was the best of games. It was the worst of games. It’s certainly in the top 10 among postseason games.”

The World Series that many thought wouldn’t be worth watching turned into a classic.

“It’s very, very high up there,” broadcaster Bob Costas said. “There are other all-time great games that have been played well from top to bottom. Part of what made this compelling is the gaffes, followed by heroics by the same guys.

There were debatable decisions by both sides, so many twists and turns. The word ‘unbelievable’ is constantly AP PHOTO used in sports. This game St. Louis Cardinals' Allen Craig hits a solo home run actually beat the adjective during the third inning of Game 7 of the World Series against the Texas Rangers, Friday in St. Louis. ‘unbelievable.’”

will officially announce playoff pairings Sunday afternoon.

“We just came out and took care of business,” Troy coach Steve Nolan said. “It was good to see the seniors end the regular season the right way and then get some of our younger players the opportunity to play.

Those are kids who work hard every day in practice, but don’t always get a chance to play on Friday nights. We kept everybody healthy going into the playoffs. Now we’ll just wait and see what happens in terms of our first-round opponent.”

Against a Sidney team that went 0-10 last year as well, Troy wasted little time in securing the victory.

Junior linebacker Ian Nadolny recovered a Sidney fumble on the third play of the game.

Three plays later, senior halfback Isaiah Williams scored on a 7-yard run to put the Trojans up 7-0.

Nadolny’s fumble recovery was one of four turnovers forced by the Trojan offense in the first half.

After Troy’s defense forced a three-and-out on the Yellowjackets’ next drive, Troy took over at midfield and Foster promptly scored on a 50-yard run. Troy led 14-0 after running just four plays from the line of scrimmage.

It didn’t get much better for Sidney from there.

Troy senior fullback Zach Jones opened the second quarter with the first of his two touchdown runs — Jones had 70 yards and a pair of

carries — and Ian Dunaway followed that up with a 66-yard punt return for a touchdown to put the Trojans up 280. Foster and Jones each tacked on another touchdown run — Foster on a 5-yard run, Jones on an 11-yard score — to give the Trojans a 41-0 halftime lead.

That would be the last time Troy’s starters saw the field.

Not that it much mattered. In the second half, the Trojans continued to dominate with its backups. Detrick scored both of his touchdowns — one on a 4-yard run, the second on a 64-yard scamper that saw him break several tackles along the way.

Sidney did manage its lone score on a 1-yard plunge by freshman quarterback Caleb Roberts.

“It’s always good to close out the regular season with a win,” Nolan said. “It allows the seniors to go out the right way and gives you some momentum going into the playoffs. Really, you can’t say enough about how much these seniors have meant to this program. A lot of them have been playing since they were sophomores and the last two years have really helped put Troy football back on the map.

“It was good for them and it was good for our younger kids, too, because they got the opportunity to get in there and get some playing time at the varsity level.”

For most, it was more than just good — it was the chance of a lifetime.

120 days of little progress NBA cancels games through Nov. 30 NEW YORK (AP) — The NBA will play a shortened season if it plays at all after labor negotiations broke down for the second time in a week.

NBA Commissioner David Stern canceled all November games on Friday, the 120th day of the lockout.

“It’s not practical, possible or prudent to have a full season now,” said Stern, who previously canceled the first two weeks of the season.

Just a day earlier, Stern had said he would consider it a failure if the two sides didn’t reach a deal in the next few days and vowed they would take “one heck of a shot” to get it done.

Owners are insistent on a 50-50 split of revenues, while players last formally proposed they get 52.5 percent, leaving them about $100 million apart annually. Players were guaranteed 57 percent in the previous collective bargaining agreement.

“Derek (Fisher) and I made it clear that we could not take the 50-50 deal to our membership. Not with all the concessions that we granted,” union executive director Billy Hunter said.

“We said we got to have some dollars.”

But with more games canceled, the losses will begin to mount.

“We’re going to have to recalculate how bad the damage is,” Stern said.

“The next offer will reflect the extraordinary losses that are piling up now.”

NBA Commissioner David Stern talks to reporters as he leaves the NBA labor talks on Oct. 10 in New York.

No further talks have been scheduled.

After two days of making some progress on salary cap issues, the two sides brought the revenue split back into the discussion Friday and promptly got stuck on both issues.

Stern said the NBA owners were “willing” to go to 50 percent. But he said Hunter was unwilling to “go a penny below 52,” that he had been getting many calls from agents and then closed up his book and walked out of the room.

Hunter said the league initially moved its target down to 47 percent during Friday’s six-hour session then returned to its previous proposal of 50 percent of revenues.

“We made a lot of concessions, but unfortunately at this time it’s not enough, and we’re not pre-

pared or unable at this time to move any further,” Hunter said.

Union president Fisher said it was difficult to say why talks broke down, or when they would start up again.

“We’re here, we’ve always been here, but today just wasn’t the day to try and finish this out,” he said.

Fisher said there were still too many system restrictions in the owners’ proposal. Players want to keep a system similar to the old one, and fear owners’ ideas would limit player movement.

And though they might be inclined to give up one if they received more concessions on the other, players make it sound as if they are the ones doing all the giving back.

The old cap system

allowed teams to exceed it through the use of a number of exceptions, many of which the league wants to tweak or even eliminate.

Hunter has called a hard cap a “blood issue” to players, and though the league has backed off its initial proposal calling for one, players think the changes owners want would work like one.

“We’ve told them that we don’t want a hard cap.

We don’t want a hard cap any kind of way, either an obvious hard cap or a hard cap that may not be as obvious to most people but we know it works like a hard cap,” Hunter said.

“And so you get there, and then all of a sudden they say, ‘Well, we also have to have our number.’ And you say, ‘Well wait a minute, you’re not negotiating in good faith.’”

BEREA (AP) — At the end of another drama-filled week, Peyton Hillis’ playing status for Sunday’s game was questionable. However, the Browns running back’s marital status had changed.

Hillis missed his second straight practice Friday with a strained hamstring, an injury that kept him out of last week’s win over Seattle and could sideline him Sunday when the Browns (3-3) visit the San Francisco 49ers (5-1).

Browns coach Pat Shurmur said Hillis will travel with the team and has not yet been ruled out.

“He’ll be out there and we’ll decide whether he’s going to play or not,” Shurmur said after practice.

“We’ll see.”

Earlier this week, Shurmur said if Hillis is healthy, he’ll start. If he

can’t play, Montario Hardesty will make his second straight start. Hardesty rushed for 95 yards on 33 carries in last week’s 6-3 win over the Seahawks.

On Wednesday, Hillis practiced for the first time since Oct. 16, when he injured his hamstring in the first half against Oakland.

He looked moved well and without any trouble during the portion of practice open to reporters, but Shurmur said Hillis reported being “a little sore” on Thursday and spent the past two days getting treatment.

Shurmur didn’t think Hillis rushed back too early.

“We brought him back with the idea that he could go out and practice,” Shurmur said, adding Hillis ran indoors on Friday. “He did some things, he just couldn’t finish, that’s all.”

WVU is Big 12 bound School is officially welcomed to conference The Big 12 welcomed West Virginia from the Big East and bid goodbye to Missouri before the Tigers even had a chance to finalize their move to the Southeastern Conference.

Now that the poaching of the Big East seems to be over, the beleaguered league is not backing down. It has been busy courting six schools and says it was braced for the latest loss. And despite what the Big 12 says, the Big East plans to keep West Virginia for two more years just as it has vowed to keep Pittsburgh and Syracuse away from the Atlantic Coast Conference until 2014.

The latest round of conference realignment appears to be winding down, but tug-o-war over who goes where when likely will take a while to sort out.

The Big 12 completed its work Friday by adding West Virginia to become its easternmost member, joining Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Kansas, Kansas State, Baylor, TCU and

Iowa State.

The Big 12 said it expects to have 10 schools for the 2012-13 season, listing West Virginia but not Missouri, which is expected to complete its move to the SEC any day now.

“I wouldn’t say that there won’t be further expansion,” interim Big 12 Commissioner Chuck Neinas said on a conference call Friday evening.

“But our mission was … to move forward with 10 teams at this point. That doesn’t mean that there wouldn’t be further consideration. But right now, we’ve got our house in order. We’ve got everybody signed up. We’re looking forward to a very aggressive conference.”

Ames, Iowa, is the closest Big 12 campus to Morgantown, W.Va., at 870 miles away, but that hardly matters.

The Mountaineers bring a football program that has consistently been ranked in the Top 25 in recent years, and that’s what counts most when it comes time to sell TV rights.

In April, the conference signed a 13-year TV deal

Premier Health Partners

Center for Sports Medicine

with Fox worth $1.17 billion that kicks in next year and was based upon the league having 10 members.

The Big 12 leaders voted to add West Virginia, rather than closer Big East rival Louisville, on Friday morning.

“The addition of West Virginia, while expanding the reach of the Big 12, brings an impressive institution with esteemed academics and a proud athletic tradition into the Conference. This is another step in building a strong foundation for the future of the Big 12,” said Oklahoma State University President Burns Hargis, the chairman of the Big 12 board of directors.

West Virginia is one of the founding members of the Big East’s football conference, created in 1991. Of the eight original members, only Rutgers remains. The Big East is trying to reconfigure itself as a 12-team football league and has been pitching itself to six schools, including Boise State. Now it will need seven to get to 12, though maybe not for a couple years.
