Local harvest has been all wet Safety a prime concern for local farmers BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@tdnpublishing.com

Book chronicles family’s saga While many individuals aspire to research their family roots, historian and retired Piqua High School teacher Larry Hamilton of Piqua has given new meaning to genealogy and the fulfillment of researching one’s ancestry. He has published a sequel to his first book “Lucy’s Story” — titled “Between Two Suns: The Berean Experience” — available locally beginning Friday. See Page 7.

For some Miami County farmers, this year’s harvest has been slow and soggy from the start and now, to the finish. According to the Ohio Department of Agriculture, as of Nov. 13, corn harvested for grain was 51 percent complete, compared to 99 percent last year and 79 percent for the five-year average. Soybeans harvested were rated at 84 per-

MIAMI COUNTY cent, 16 percentage points behind last year and 13 points behind the five-year average. Winter wheat was 91 percent planted, 9 percentage points behind last year and 6 points behind the five-year average. Although the harvest has been slow, yet, steady, Routzahn,of the Jim Mennel Milling Company’s Troy Elevator said this year’s grain coming in is completely different from last year’s harvest. “Last year, it was the total opposite,’ Routzahn said. “Everything coming out of the fields was com-

pletely dry.” Despite soggy harvest conditions this year, Routzahn said the quality of grain so far has been average or above average. “It’s not the best quality, but it’s not the worst quality we’ve ever seen,” he said. According to the Ohio Department of Agriculture, 73 percent of corn was in fair-to-good condition, down 2 percent from last week. Eighty-eight percent of winter wheat is in fairto-good condition, unchanged from last week. With the wet harvest season, safety is a paramount concern for local farmers. Fortunately,

Newton Local School’s Board of Education approved a resolution to oppose the current Ohio House Bill 136, which would expand the state’s “School Choice” to all Ohio students and their families. The board approved to sign the resolution at Thursday’s regular board meeting. “This bill is detrimental to public education,” said Superintendent Pat McBride. “It’s disappointing they would even consider such a thing.” McBride said by signing the resolution as a board, the school district would join “hundreds of public school districts that are opposed to this bill.” “It’s just a crazy bill,” McBride said. Board member Nate Oburn asked how the voucher system would work and if it meant money would be taken directly from the district’s operating fund. McBride summed up STAFF PHOTO/DAVID FONG the bill as allowing the DP&L and City of Troy workers, including Jeremy Drake, spent eight hours fes- state to take public tax tooning the city’s Christmas tree with ornaments Friday.

PLEASANT HILL schools. “It’s about taking public money to pay for private (and parochial) education,” McBride explained. “If the voucher is less than the tuition, you could roll that over to a college fund.” Board vice-president Lolita Schultz said she would be interested to see the number of state representatives who send their children to private and parochial schools. McBride also urged the board to contact State Representative Dick Adams to express its opinion about their stand on House Bill 136. McBride said he spoke with Adams who relayed to him that he opposes House Bill 136 “as it currently stands.” “It’s a bad bill — it needs to go away,” McBride said. In other district news: The board approved changes to the district’s calendar. Due to Jan. 2, 2012 being a federal holiday, the school day would be moved to May 29, 2012. The board approved Mindy Shardo as the district’s wellness coordinator.

Harvest

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TDN-NET.COM

• CONTINUED FROM A1 Miami County already has a system in place should an emgergency occur during harvest season. According to a report by Purdue University released in February 2011, 51 men and boys were engulfed by grains stored in towering metal structures that dot rural landscapes, and 26 died — the highest number on record. Illinois led the nation with 10 accidents and five deaths. In more recent headlines, on Sept. 6, a man trapped in a grain bin at Maxyield Cooperative died in Dickens, Iowa. Upon arriving employees, law enforcement and rescue workers were involved in trying to extricate him from the grain, but efforts to do so were unsuccessful. According to a report from Sioux City, Iowa’s www.khastv.com, there were three employees that had been working on a grain bin when the victim was trying to knock down a column of corn and in the process was covered with grain. In the event of a similar incident to occur in Miami County, local grain companies pooled their resources to obtain a rescue tube to prevent entrapment and drownings last fall. In August 2010, six local grain companies donated funds to send Piqua Fire Department firefighter Vince Ashcraft and Troy Elevator Company’s Tom Francis to a four-day comprehensive workshop on grain entrapment prevention and rescue in August at The Andersons’ grain elevator in Maumee.The grain companies also purchased and donated the Liberty Rescue Tube. “The grain companies all pitched in to purchase the rescue tube so any fire department can use it,” Routzahn said. “It is

housed in the Troy Fire Department for anyone to use.” The following organizations contributed funds to send Ashcroft to the training as well as donated funds to purchase the Liberty Rescue Tube: Ebbert’s Seeds of Covington, Miami County Farm Bureau, Miami Valley Feed and Grain of New Carlisle, Roger’s Grain of Covington and Red River, Rudy’s Inc. of Covington and West Milton and Troy Elevator, Troy. According to a report by the Chicago Tribune, in less than 10 seconds, a person who steps into flowing corn can sink up to his chest, becoming immobilized, said Robert Aherin, agriculture safety leader in the department of agricultural engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Within another 10 seconds, that person will be completely submerged and unable to breathe, essentially drowned in corn. Accidents can occur when someone enters a bin to break up clumps that form when grains are moist and have started decomposing. The 2009 corn crop was a particularly wet one, leading to more stucktogether grain than usual. In turn, that caused more workers to go into grain bins in 2010 as the crop was removed, exposing them to potential danger, said Jeffrey Adkisson, executive vice president of the Illinois Grain and Feed Association. Recommended precautions are outlined in grainhandling standards issued by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration. Every time someone goes into a grain bin, machinery that helps move grain should be turned off. The person should wear a body harness so he can be pulled to safety. An observer should stand outside the bin ready to help if needed.

She declined to comment Thursday except to say: “I love him, and I’m here for him.” It was unclear why or when they split. Reached by the AP on Thursday, Ortega’s mother said she didn’t have anything to say. She earlier told the Post Register in Idaho Falls her son has no history of mental illness. “He has different ideas than other people, just like everyone, but he was perfectly fine the last time I saw him,” Maria Hernandez told the newspaper. “He might be saying weird stuff that sounds crazy, but that doesn’t mean (he) is crazy. He might be

confused and scared.” At his first appearance in court in Pennsylvania, Ortega sat quietly, his hands free but his feet shackled. He said only, “Yes, ma’am” when he was asked if he understood that he would be going back to Washington to face the charge. According to a court document released after the hearing, authorities recovered nine spent shell casings from Ortega’s car, which was found abandoned near the White House shortly after the shooting. An assault rifle with a scope was found inside. A person who knows him subsequently told investigators that he had become increasingly agitated with the federal government and was convinced it was conspiring against him, the document said.

In the last 40 years, the landmark has faced threats ranging from a stolen helicopter that landed on the grounds in 1974 to a man who wielded a sawed-off shotgun on a sidewalk outside in 1984. In 1994 alone, there were five threats including a plane crash on the lawn and a suspected drive-by shooting. Another man fired at least 29 rounds from a semiautomatic weapon, with 11 striking the White House. Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent who served on the presidential details for Obama and President George W. Bush, said Friday’s shooting would likely mean tighter security and coordination. “They do an exhaustive review of their security procedures every time something like this happens,” said Bongino, who recently left the Secret Service to run for U.S. Senate in Maryland. “Nothing ever works perfectly. They will undress this completely and then they will find out when they rebuild the incident exactly what they could have done better.”

investigators that Ortega had reportedly said Obama was the Antichrist and the “devil.” Ortega also apparently said he “needed to kill” the president. Authorities said Ortega was clad in black when he pulled his car within view of the White House on Friday night, fired shots and then sped away. The White House has not said whether the Obamas’ daughters, Sasha and Malia, were there at the time or commented on the shooting. Ortega was questioned by police on Friday morning, before the shootings, just across the Potomac River from Washington in Arlington, Va. Police said they stopped him after a report of suspicious behavior, but let him go after photographing him because they had no reason to make an arrest. Ortega has an arrest record in three states but has not been linked to any radical organizations, U.S. Park Police have said. This is not the first time the White House has come under attack.

Chelsea Hemmelgarn Troy Daily News Guest Columnist

A time to remember what’s truly important The scorching summer days have past; now the autumn leaves fall upon us. I remember when raking leaves was considered a game, rather than a chore. My siblings and I would work divergently to build the tallest pile of leaves, occasionally stealing some from our neighbors’ yards. We would build forts, bury each other, or simply dive into the sea of leaves. With crumpled remnants in our hair and the sun beaming on our skin, our laughter could not be contained. Simple memories such as these, not only light a smile on my face, but also remind me of what’s truly important — my family and friends. While I’m never enthusiastic for the cold fronts to sweep away summer; I do look forward to relaxing and spending time with my family on Thanksgiving. It’s my family that I turn to when I run into trouble, and my family I’m always thankful for as we sit around the dinner table. When the world lives at your fingertips, it’s too easy to lose yourself and forget the value of everything within your life. Owning a computer or more than one television no longer is considered unorthodox, making it almost impossible to imagine families struggling to obtain the most basic resources to survive. I’m used to there always being food in the fridge and a heater to warm my frostbitten fingertips after playing outside. I can’t imagine skipping meals or freezing on a park bench. What everyone forgets, and what I consider the hardest challenge, is overcoming your pride to admit you need help, to realize you aren’t as independent as you once believed. Although I strongly support charity work, my mind has never been at ease with the thought of donating money to charities, let alone the man standing on the side of the road. I prefer to donate my time and unwanted possessions.Throughout the year, my family donates outgrown clothes to numerous charities. In addition, I help prepare soup for local soup kitchens through my church. During the Thanksgiving season, schools raise money and canned goods for donation. There are numerous opportunities to help people within your community. When participating in charities, you decide how much and how often you are willing to contribute. Shopping at Goodwill is another way you can help without donating. Money that the store earns is given to families in need. Even small, inconsequential roles can have an effect on the lives of those who are in need, which is what I love most about charity work. For every small donation, you are helping another family provide for their children. You’re helping another child have a chance at forming simple, happy memories they can cherish the rest of their life. There are people sleeping with empty stomachs, who are numb from the ice cold temperatures every night, not just during the holiday seasons. It’s never too late to experience a change of heart.

LETTERS

Thank you for your support To the Editor: Family Connection of Miami County would like to express our sincere gratitude to Troy Community Works and the Make a Difference Day Committee. With their assistance we were able to have a privacy fence installed at our parking lot entrance.

The Troy Foundation provided the monetary assistance to buy the materials for the fence. The fence will help ensure the safety of our children using the facility for visits or exchanges. We would also like to thank DanCraft Construction for providing the manpower to install the fence. Brock Swartz from DanCraft worked at the facility for two days preparing for the volunteers to help on Saturday. Without DanCraft and

Brock our fence would not have been possible. Kiwanis of Troy members helped him on Saturday to complete the project. Thanks to everyone who assisted in helping Family Connection have a privacy fence installed for the safety of our children. — Dee Mahan Executive Director, Family Connection of Miami County

Silence leaves me feeling Sleepless in Conover I’m beginning to imitate the life of a raccoon — dark circles and all. The last few weeks, I’ve been getting used to the country life that I had been coveting for the last several years. It’s good to be back. The problem is that I can’t sleep. It’s so quiet out here. Too quiet. Really, really, really quiet. I’ve mentioned to a few inquiring people that I love my new home, but I’m extremely thankful for the ongoing whirlwind sounds of the corn dryers working furiously through the night. Oh, and the flock of pigeons cooing from the bank barn. Other than those sounds, the silence is deafening. I lamented to my best friend The Queen about how quiet it is in our neck of the woods. The only advice she had was, “Sleep with the TV on.” Well, that was easy when my household’s only television was in my living in town — the living room that doubled as my bedroom. Slowly but surely, I have tried to speed up the process of divvying up my whole life to place them in their respective spots in my home. Key word — tried. I have all the basics in order.

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist Food, running water and heat. The rest is just icing on the cake. The other stuff can wait. I’ve also found that my cell phone service is dictated by the moon’s phases. Only when I leave my driveway does my cell scream for attention, via beeps and alarms from my angry boss and concerned relatives about my well-being. I can, however, find a bar of service in the middle of my kitchen. So while I chat on the phone, I sit in the middle of the kitchen, removing nails from the floor to get ready for the new linoleum. Normally to pass the time, I call my sister to have some company during this laborious task. So my nocturalness has blessed me with dark circles under my eyes and a heightened sense of sound of each and every

commotion coming from outside. I’ve started to name the pigeons. Frank and Bert are my favorites. The best I’ve slept was this past weekend at my twin sister’s home in suburbia near Cleveland. Mister Obvious and I went up to be helping hands for my nephew’s birthday party. If there isn’t anything more exhausting than corralling a bowling alley full of 7 year olds, I don’t know what that is. After the party, and hauling a few dozen gifts into the house, I offered to watch the kids while Sissy visited with friends at a local sports bar. If there isn’t anything more exhausting that getting three boys who are hopped on sugary birthday cake and demanding that all remote control gifts be fully functional, I don’t know what is. Crashing in bed way before midnight, the boys were up and running in the morning, ready to get the Sunday started with demands that all remote control gifts be fully functioning. My son later confessed after a flapjack breakfast, that he and his cohort in crime, 5 year-old Tyler, had awakened in the middle of the night to resume their LEGO Batman video game well into the wee hours of the morn-

ing in the basement. I never heard them leave their rooms. He slept like a baby on the way home. Carrying him into the house and tucking him in for the night, I looked around the house ready to begin my nocturnal sweep of unpacking more boxes. As I sat in my kitchen, pulling nails out of the floor (again), I called my sister, who was packing and preparing to visit her husband, who is playing basketball in Poland this week. We keep each other company during detestable tasks ofter. It’s kind of a tradition by now. So I was a little bit surprised when Evan woke me up the next morning. He found me, glued to the middle of the kitchen floor with my cell phone plastered to my face. “Mom, I need to go to school!” he said, with his coat and his backpack on. I peeled myself off the floor and headed outside, greeted by the pigeons calling from the barn. This raccoon life is for the birds. “Twin” Melanie Yingst appears on Fridays in the Troy Daily News. Thankfully for her, she gets plenty of sleep while on the job

OBITUARIES

ENGAGEMENT

Frederick Russell Galbreath

Enright, Turcol to wed TROY — The engagement of Emily Elizabeth Anne Enright and Steven Louis Turcol, both of Lewisburg, is announced by her parents, John and Georgann Enright of Troy. Christine Turcol of Wilmington, Del., and the late Louis Turcol are parents of the groom-to-be. The bride-elect is a 1996 graduate of Troy High School, has an associate’s degree in math and physics from Sinclair Community College, and received a bachelor of science degree in chemistry

from Wright State University in 2008. She

served in the U.S. Air Force from 1998-2002, and is employed at American Thermal Instruments Inc., Moraine. Her fiance is a 1994 graduate of Salesianum High School, Wilmington, Del., and received a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from Wright State University in 2008. He served in the U.S. Coast Guard from 1994-2001, and is employed at F&P America Mfg., Troy. The couple plan a Nov. 19, 2011, wedding.

Lower birth rates for U.S. women tied to economy ATLANTA (AP) — Health officials say birth for America’s rates youngest mothers hit new lows last year. The U.S. birth rate dropped for the third straight year, with declines for most ages and all races, according to a federal report released Thursday. Teens and women in their early 20s had the most dramatic dip to the lowest rates since record-keeping began in the 1940s. Also, the rate of cesarean sections stopped going up for the first time since 1996. Experts suspected the economy drove down birth rates in 2008 and 2009 as women put off having children. With the 2010 figures, suspicion has turned into certainty. “I don’t think there’s any doubt now that it was the recession. It could not be anything else,” said Carl Haub, a demographer with the Population Reference Bureau, a Washington, D.C.-based research organization. He was not involved in the new report. U.S. births hit an alltime high in 2007, at more than 4.3 million. Over the next two years, the number dropped to about 4.2 million and then about 4.1 million. Last year, it was down to just over 4 million, according to the new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For teens, birth rates dropped 9 percent from 2009. For women in their

early 20s, they fell 6 percent. For unmarried mothers, the drop was 4 percent. Experts believe the downward trend is tied to the economy, which officially was in a recession from December 2007 until June 2009 but remains weak. The theory is that women with money worries especially younger women feel they can’t afford to start a family or add to it. That’s true of Mary Garrick, 27, an advertising executive in Columbus, Ohio. She and her husband, David, married in 2008 and hoped to start having children quickly, in part because men in his family have died in their 40s. But David, 33, was laid off that year from his nursing job and again last year. He’s working again, but worries about the economy linger. “It kind of made us cautious about life decisions, like having a family. It’s definitely something that affected us,” she said. Many of the report’s findings are part of a trend and not surprising, but a few did startle experts. One involved a statistic called the total fertility rate. In essence, it tells how many children a woman can be expected to have if current birth rates continue. That figure was 1.9 children last year. In most years, it’s more like 2.1. More striking was the change in the fertility rate for Hispanic women. The rate plummeted to 2.4 from

3 children just a few years ago. “Whoa!” said Haub, in reaction to the statistic. The economy is no doubt affecting Hispanic mothers, too, but some young women who immigrated to the United States for jobs or other opportunities may have left, Haub said. Another shocker: The Csection rate. It rose steadily from nearly 21 percent in 1996 to 32.9 percent in 2009, but it dropped slightly to 32.8 last year. Cesarean deliveries are sometimes medically necessary. But health officials have worried that many Csections are done out of convenience or unwarranted caution, and in the 1980s set a goal of keeping the national rate at 15 percent. It’s too soon to say the trend has reversed, said Joyce Martin, a CDC epidemiologist who coauthored the new report. But the pace of increase had slowed a bit in recent years, and assuming the decline was in elective Csections, that’s good news, some experts said. Carol Hogue, an Emory University professor of maternal and child health and epidemiology, agreed that the economy seems to be the main reason for the birth declines. But she noted that it’s possible that having fewer children is now more accepted and expected. “Having one child may be becoming more ‘normal,’” she said.

than 8 pounds when she was born in July 2010 and just 13 pounds this past September. A doctor told police the girl would have to weigh 22 pounds to be on growth charts for her age.

for him. He says the two men had responded to a bogus listing for a job as cattle caretaker at a 688-acre farm. He suspects robbery was the motive.

Jobseekers founds dead

Man makes bad T-shirt decision

CALDWELL, Ohio — A sheriff says a jobseeker from Florida has been found dead and another from South Carolina has been shot after they responded to a Craigslist ad for a job on an Ohio cattle farm. Noble County Sheriff Stephen Hannum said Thursday two men were taken into custody after cadaver dogs found the body of the Florida man this week in a shallow grave in a remote area. He says the search was undertaken after the South Carolina man escaped from the area Nov. 6 and notified police, who then found a grave they believe had been dug

CORAM, N.Y. — A New York man wearing a T-shirt declaring “I’m a drunk” is facing DWI charges after a collision with a police car. Suffolk County police arrested 22-year-old Kevin Daly of Coram. They say he crashed into an officer’s vehicle at about 1:45 a.m. Thursday. The officer was treated for minor injuries. Daly was wearing the T-shirt in a mug shot provided by police. He faces arraignment on DWI and was issued several traffic summonses. The name of his attorney was not immediately available.

Parents starve their daughter MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Prosecutors say a Wisconsin mother and father were so worried their infant daughter would become obese that they starved her for months, causing the girl to gain just 5 pounds in 14 months. Christopher and Mary Sultze of Appleton each are each charged with child neglect. Each would face up to a year and a half in prison and $25,000 in fines if convicted. Mary Sultze’s attorney says the couple may have had “just misguided parenting intentions.” Her husband’s attorney declined to comment. A criminal complaint says the couple’s daughter weighed slightly more

TROY DAILY NEWS • WWW.TROYDAILYNEWS.COM

THE DESCENDANTS: Alexander Payne makes movies about men on the brink — of a nervous breakdown, of personal or professional ruin and, ultimately, maybe even some hard-earned peace. That’s certainly true of George Clooney here. As real-estate lawyer Matt King, he finds everything in his life is in flux and on the verge of collapse simultaneously. This isn’t any easier even though he lives in Hawaii, a place that’s supposed to be paradise. Clooney being Clooney, though, makes every stage of his character’s arc believable, from grief through anger and eventual acceptance, and he gives a performance that’s so understated as to appear effortless. Matt’s wife, Elizabeth, is lying in a hospital bed in a coma following a boating accident. Matt, who hasn’t been the most available or hands-on father, must now take care of the couple’s two daughters on his own: 17-yearold boarding school rebel Alexandra (Shailene Woodley) and 10-year-old troublemaker Scottie (Amara Miller). Then Alexandra drops another bombshell on her father: Elizabeth was having an affair at the time of her accident. As if all this weren’t enough to handle, Matt’s enormous family has put him in charge of deciding what to do with the 25,000 acres of pristine land on Kauai that they’ve inherited from their royal Hawaiian ancestors. Payne’s pacing is often so languid that we don’t feel the sort of mounting tension that we should. But the story keeps us guessing as to where it will go, and it features some piercing moments of emotional truth. R for language including some sexual references. 115 minutes. Three stars out of four. — Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic HAPPY FEET TWO: The dancing, singing penguins are as adorable as ever. Yet a couple of shrimplike krill almost steal the show in this animated sequel that sticks to the formula of the original while adding enough variety to give it a life of its own. It helps to have Brad Pitt and Matt Damon voicing the krill with great companionability as they join a vocal cast that includes returning stars Elijah Wood and Robin Williams. Wood’s tap-dancing penguin now is a dad dealing with a misfit, runaway son embarrassed over his own lack of rhythm. Director and co-writer George Miller, who handled the same chores on the 2006 Academy Award-winning first film, keeps the focus on penguins in peril while adding an interesting nature-in-perspective angle with the side journey of those tiny krill trying to find their place in a world of bigger, hungrier things. The sequel delivers the key ingredients that made its predecessor such a hit: lovable characters, a rich blend of pop tunes employed in showstopping song-and-dance numbers and remarkable Antarctic landscapes whose bleak beauty pops off the screen even more than in the original, thanks to some of the finest use of 3-D animation since the digital age brought an extra dimension to the screen. PG for some rude humor and mild peril. 99 minutes. Three stars out of four. — David Germain, AP Movie Writer THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN — PART 1: “Laughable” probably isn’t the word the filmmakers were aiming for, but there it is; laughter, at all the wrong places. The fourth movie in the freakishly popular girl-vamp-wolf love triangle series is so self-serious, it’s hard not to cackle at it. The dialogue is, of course, ridiculous and the acting ranges from stiff to mopey. But moments that should be pulsating with tension are usually hilarious because the special effects are still just so distractingly cheesy. This latest installment has yet another new director: Bill Condon, a man capable of both panache (“Dreamgirls”) and serious artistry (“Gods and Monsters”), little of which you’ll see here. The first of two films adapted from the final book in Stephenie Meyer’s series (with part two coming next year), this serves as a placeholder for the ultimate finale but is jam-packed with developments in its own right. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and her vampire beau, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), marry in a lavish, romantic outdoor ceremony. Bella’s childhood best friend and the other man in the equation, werewolf Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), stops by as a gesture of goodwill. Finally, Bella and Edward can have sex, the thing she has wanted all along but he has been reluctant to do for fear that deflowering her will, you know, kill her. And he may have been right. He impregnates her on the honeymoon and the resulting hybrid spawn threatens to destroy her from inside. PG-13 for disturbing images, violence, sexuality/partial nudity and some thematic elements. 117 minutes. One and a half stars out of four. — Christy Lemire, AP Movie Critic

Family’s saga continues New book reveals more details on ancestry BY SHARON SEMANIE For the Daily Call editorial@dailycall.com

hile many individuals aspire to research their family roots, historian and retired Piqua High School teacher Larry Hamilton of Piqua has given new meaning to genealogy and the fulfillment of researching one’s ancestry. He has published a sequel to his first book “Lucy’s Story” — titled “Between Two Suns: The Berean Experience” — available locally beginning Friday.

W

Authored by Hamilton and written by his former student Christina DeLaet, the latHAMILTON est book is “the continuing saga of a family history narrative handed down from generations of the Hamilton family of Loveland, Ohio.” The 62year-old author indicates that his first historical novel focused on his great-great-grandmother, Lucy Sams, and her flight from slavery in Madison County, Ky., to Camp Nelson, a “haven of refuge” in Lexington, which served as a Civil War fortification and was among the largest recruiters of black soldiers. It was during that time that Lucy Sams, he writes, “survived a tragic and deadly expulsion of fugitive slaves and befriended the abolitionist and humanitarian Rev. John G. Fee. At the camp, she was courted by Allen Ross, a soldier who miraculously survives the Saltville Massacre and returns to marry Lucy with the Rev. Fee officiating.” In the latest novel “Between Two Suns,” Hamilton describes the family’s “hope for a bright new future with the dawning of the Reconstruction era following the Civil War.” The family, he notes, struggles to be maintained as a cohesive unit during the turmoil of widespread racial violence. “Farming and just working hard isn’t enough to win the friendship of some neighbors,” he said, “which contributes to a migratory path of the family from Garrard County, Ky., to

PIQUA Warsaw on the Ohio River and on into Lockland, Ohio, for a short time and final settlement in Loveland. In spite of social difficulties and economic hardship, Lucy is passionate about following the advice of her old friend, Rev. Fee, in having her children educated.” Ironically, he adds, ”it is her only daughter Cynthia, who is the one chosen to attend Berea College, which was founded by the Rev. Fee and becomes an integrated educational oasis in a region of strict adherence to Jim Crow.” Hamilton suggests that “remarkably, the recognition of the plight of European immigrants by these former American slaves is made real in the emotional strain of the fraying marriage of Lucy and Allen (Ross). Despite threats to marital fidelity the couple sacrificed to raise a family and fervently held to the ethic of hard work and the counsel of education as the means to accomplishing advancement in America. The mysterious murder of a family member and the conspiratorial manner brought by the imposition of the Day Law marked the sunset of the beginning of the 20th century.” “Readers who loved ‘Lucy’s Story’ will double their pleasure with ‘Between Two Suns,’” he said. “It is twice as long (330 pages) with no additional cost ($18.87) and the intrigue, romanticism and mystery will make it difficult for readers to put the book down.” Hamilton suggests that Book III of his trilogy of historical novels will relate, in part, to an important upcoming anniversary in the Miami Valley. Hamilton’s books are available at Readmore Hallmark Store and Eagle Printing. Book signings also will be scheduled at the Miami Valley Centre Mall, Hallmark and Kroger for Christmas holiday gift purchases. A native of Loveland, Hamilton lived in a large extended family group with two older sisters and two younger sisters. His

Above is the cover of “Between Two Suns, The Berean Experience.” The book, a sequel to his earlier book, “Lucy’s Story,” was authored by retired Piqua High School teacher Larry Hamilton and written by a former student, Christina DeLaet. father, he noted, had four brothers with three of them being immediate neighbors. “The other lived one block away and my father’s mother — the Hamilton family matriarch — lived two blocks away. And my mother’s family also had her parents only three blocks away.” Hamilton graduated from Loveland High School in 1967, before enrolling at Central State University where he was graduated in 1971. He earned a master’s degree from Wright State University in 1978, and taught world history, African American history and current events at Piqua High School from 1971-2001. “It was by no accident that I authored Lucy’s Story,” explained Hamilton, when asked what inspired him to initiate the trilogy of novels. The spark occurred after taking a group of high school students to hear Alex Haley talk about his book “Roots: The Saga of an American Family.” Although the seed was planted in 1975, Hamilton didn’t begin his historical journey until 2008, when a former student contacted him about a series of Black History Month presentations he was giving at a local college. Unable to attend due to inclement weather, the student forwarded a letter inviting Hamilton to talk with her about his family’s experiences in the Civil War camp since she had an interest in writing stories of that era. Hamilton’s desire to have his great-great-grandmother’s story told resulted in their partnership in 2008. Hamilton authored the material written by Christina DeLaet whose parents are Bob and Diane DeLaet, owners of Eagle Printing. Christina’s sister, Nikki, is the graphic artist and,

according to Hamilton, “has also played a critical role in the publication of both ‘Lucy’s Story’ and ‘Between Two Suns.’” Determined to “bring honor and dignity” to the struggles of his ancestors as Americans, Hamilton noted the oral history with his grandmother took place in November 1975, more than three decades before “Lucy’s Story” appeared. “The events, locations and most individuals are historically accurate, but the only way to weave a story around the presentation of historical facts has to be labeled as fictitious because there is no way to totally verify the oral history given to me through my grandmother,” he added. When asked if it was difficult to undertake such an important piece of history, he replied “No. This was the purpose to which I was born. It took a long time only because it was supposed to. As (Alex) Haley stated ‘it was a series of meant to be experiences that led to this initiative and that was what was intended by divine dictate.’” Larry and his wife, Linda, are the parents of four children, Lawrence III (Butch), Cicely, Erika and Jonathan. Both sons are educators, Butch a teacher in Columbus, and Jon, a graduate assistant working on his doctorate degree at the University of Illinois, Erika is pursuing an acting career in California and Cicely, who contacted meningitis after birth and is developmentally disabled, lives at home with her parents. “I married Linda — also an educator — in June 1971. We celebrated our 40th anniversary this year. Our children,” he quipped, “covered our expenses in vacationing in Jamaica,” Hamilton said.

ARTHUR CHRISTMAS: This pleasant holiday treat from Aardman, the British animation outfit behind “Chicken Run” and the “Wallace and Gromit” cartoons, has the old-fashioned spirit of Christmas at heart, spinning a snowflake-light tale with warmth, energy and goofy humor. The movie unveils the vast high-tech enterprise run by Santa to deliver all those presents as his big-hearted but bumbling younger son, Arthur (voiced by James McAvoy), races to deliver a single gift that fell through the cracks. The delightful, drolly funny voice cast includes Jim Broadbent, Bill Nighy, Hugh Laurie, Imelda Staunton and Ashley Jensen. Director Sarah Smith offers a fresh look at the Santa legend with a flawed Claus whose family is as dysfunctional as everyone else’s. There are lulls and comic misfires that feel like stocking stuffers thrown in to pad the simple story to feature length, and the manic banter comes a bit too fast for viewers to digest it all. Still, the visual gags will carry youngsters along, while there are plenty of clever wisecracks to keep their parents occupied. PG for some mild rude humor. 97 minutes. Three stars out of four. — David Germain, AP Movie Writer

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Talk to your wife about the situation Dear Annie: When is a kiss just a kiss? The husband of my wife's best friend gave her a wee bit of a special kiss on the lips after another summer of overlapping vacation time at a summer cottage. I could be way off the mark, but it seemed like more than a brief goodbye kiss. I emailed him about it, and he replied that there has never been anything between them. They are just good friends. Regardless, my gut says the damage has been done. This guy is on his second marriage. The night before "the kiss," the four of us had a wide-ranging discussion. I am fairly traditional in my views and values. His ending comment was about how in retirement he'd like to donate sperm. He knows I had a vasectomy years ago. Call me insecure, but I sensed something more on his mind. In previous years, I have left these vacations early while my wife stayed on. Now I feel taken advantage of. I want my wife to keep her close friendship with his wife, but I want both of us to disassociate from her husband. Am I wrong? — No-Win Situation in Wisconsin Dear No Win: You are jumping to conclusions because you don't trust this man. But do you trust your wife? A light peck on the lips between good friends is tolerable, but a full-blown smack on the lips is inappropriate. A discussion about becoming a sperm donor may be in poor taste, but it doesn't necessarily mean anything else. Regardless of his behavior, it is your wife's that matters. Talk to her about your concerns. You don't need to cut the husband off completely, but it's OK to limit contact if he makes you uncomfortable. However, if your wife still wants to vacation with her friend and her husband, you should come along and stay the entire time. Dear Annie: In April of 1975, I reluctantly gave my only child, a son, up for adoption. I was 20 years old and not in a position to raise him properly. I have deeply regretted that decision ever since and have been trying to find my son since he turned 21. I contacted the attorney who handled the private adoption and received a return letter stating that he forwarded my request to the adoptive parents, but they preferred the matter to remain closed. Unfortunately, the attorney has since passed away, and I have no idea how to pursue this any further. If my son is still alive, he would be 36 years old. I believe he has the right to know his birth family medical history at the very least. I realize there are some adopted children who have no desire to meet their biological family, and although I pray that is not true in this case, I would understand. But I would think he would want his medical history. Must I sit back for another 10 years and hope for the best, or is there something else I can do? — Sad Birth Mom in Omaha, Neb. Dear Sad: You can hire a private detective who specializes in these cases, or you can leave your information on the many available search and adoption registries. The Nebraska Dept. of Health and Human Services may be helpful. Also try the International Soundex Reunion Registry (isrr.org) at 1888-886-ISRR. Good luck. Dear Annie: You've printed several responses to "Suffering Soon-To-Be Ex," who stupidly joked that he'd have grabbed his sister-in-law, "Zoe," if she'd been available. I wonder why men speak first and think later? When I was a newlywed, my husband said, "You're way down on my list of priorities," and that proved to be true for 45 years of marriage. I never forgot that statement. Why I stayed with him for 45 years is beyond me. -Men! Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

SUDOKU PUZZLE

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News. YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Easing out a stubborn tight bulb Dear Heloise: My wife said she has seen your suggestions for how to UNSCREW A STUBBORN LIGHT BULB from a very tight fixture cover. Any suggestions you can give will be a blessing! — John Crowley, via email John, happy to help! Safety is the main concern. You must turn off the power from the main circuit box (or, when dealing with a lamp, unplug it). Wearing gloves and eye protection, carefully wiggle the bulb, trying to loosen it

Hints from Heloise Columnist from the base. In your case, you should place a heavy cloth over the light bulb and carefully break it off from its base. Next, using a rubber-style jar opener, slowly reach in, twisting and wiggling back and forth gently to remove the

base that is left behind. Remember to completely clean the empty socket before replacing the light bulb to be sure there is no glass left. You can use a clean, dry cloth or a vacuum-cleaner attachment. Heloise Update: A raw potato was once suggested for removing the base, but the moisture from the potato actually could cause a short. So don’t! — Heloise SAFETY FIRST Dear Readers: Do you know the correct way to dispose of “sharps” (needles, syringes or lancets)? Placing them in a

plastic bag and in the trash is a no-no. What are the alternatives? According to the Environmental Protection Agency (www.epa.gov), the following disposal methods are OK: a mail-back program for a fee, a drop box at your doctor or pharmacy, or call your public health department for guidance. You also can place it in a puncture-resistant plastic bottle with a screw-on lid and tape the lid closed, then place in the garbage can. — Heloise

HOROSCOPE Friday, Nov. 18, 2011 Surprise earnings in the year ahead could come through an unusual channel. You may not be looking for one, but once it’s there, it’ll bring you all those little extras you’ve been craving. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Someone you meet by accident will intrigue you today. After some talking, you might be looking at a new best pal. Ease into this friendship, and remember to keep an open mind. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It’ll be that special way you do something that has several key people wanting to take a look at your work today. One person in particular might be someone whose interest you’ve been anxious to get. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You’re much more popular with your contemporaries than you may think. Today this fact might become clear when several people start clamoring for your attention. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Don’t waste your time looking to others to make the social arrangements today, because they’re all waiting for you to do so. Think of a place or something to do that everyone will enjoy. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — You could be called upon at home today to be a mediator. Fortunately for them, you’ll know exactly how to reach an agreement that everyone will like.

This might be an excellent evening to go out on the town with friends.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — The day in general should be a favorable one, with you even reaping some kind of benefit from a least expected source. Make the most of whatever opportunities come along. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — It’s to your advantage to get out and about today, especially if you’re unattached and looking to find a special someone. You could find the right group that’ll have what you’re looking for. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Waking up happy is the key to being in tune with the day. Those of you looking for someone special might even find that person today. Smile, and the world smiles with you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Good news from an unexpected venue might be trying to get through to you. If you’re out and about today, check in from time to time to see if anybody has been trying to reach you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Two friends who don’t know each other might be trying to reach you today. Respond to both because each will have his or her own special reason for wanting to touch base with you. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

Tornadoes in Southeast kill 6, flatten houses ing. People in a hard-hit North Carolina neighborhood marked the spot where a 3-year-old girl’s body was found with an American flag. The little girl and her grandmother were among six killed in three states Wednesday. The two were alone in the small house in a rural

area south of Lexington when the storm hit, leaving behind only the foundation. The house’s splintered remains were scattered hundreds of feet. The family’s Dodge minivan ended up propped against a nearby tree, its windows smashed and roof caved in. Firefighters and volun-

teers searched for the girl, whose name wasn’t immediately released, for more than two hours before finding her buried in a pile of shattered lumber and furniture. “She was just beautiful big blue eyes and so sweet,” said Maegan Chriscoe, whose daughter played with the young victim. Elsewhere, the storms killed three people in South Carolina, and a Georgia motorist was died when a tree crushed his SUV north of Atlanta. Dozens more were injured across the region, scores of buildings were damaged and thousands were without power. Meteorologists confirmed Thursday that tornadoes had struck Louisiana and Alabama a day earlier and twisters were suspected in Mississippi, Georgia and the Carolinas. “It looked like the

‘Wizard of Oz,’” Henry Taylor said, describing a funnel cloud outside his home near Rock Hill, S.C. “It was surreal, and for a moment, a split second, you say to yourself ‘This ain’t real,’ then reality sets in, and you know it is.” The 50-year-old Taylor said he and his wife sought refuge in a closet as the storm roared. Part of his roof was torn off, windows were blown out and trees had been snapped in two. But he and his wife escaped injury. “I held my wife closely in the closet and I prayed. I said, ‘Oh my God, this is it. I’m going to be buried in the debris. We’re going to die,’” Taylor said Thursday, wiping back tears. Jerry Neely said his wife, Janet, was home alone and fled to the bathroom for safety. The tornado lifted the bathtub, pinning her underneath, Jerry

Neely said by phone from his wife’s hospital room Thursday. “It’s going to be hard to overcome this. I don’t know what we’re going to do. It’s just so hard,” Jerry Neely said, adding that his wife will recover from her injuries. The sheriff for surrounding York County asked South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley for state assistance in cleaning up the debris. Authorities blocked roads leading into the area and only allowed emergency workers and power crews in. Ideal conditions for severe weather were created when a cold front stretching from the Gulf of Mexico to the Northeast collided with unseasonably warm air, forecasters said. Temperatures dropped in some areas from the low 70s to the 50s as the front passed.

CAUTION Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is and eventually fake bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western Union branches are trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable.

Buck Eyes An inside look at Ohio State football WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

BUCKEYE BUSTERS

NAME: Michael Wiley HOMETOWN: Spring Valley, Calif. OHIO STATE YEARS: 1996-99 HIGHLIGHTS: Wiley was Ohio State’s leading rusher as a junior and senior and finished his career with 2,951 yards rushing. He scored touchdowns the first three times he touched the ball at OSU. AFTER OSU: Wiley was drafted in the fifth round and played three years with the Dallas Cowboys. He returned to OSU to finish his degree in 2008 and works for Medco Health Solutions in Columbus.

1: Who did Ohio State play in the

first night game at Ohio Stadium in 1985? 2: What was the first season in

the modern era that freshmen could play college football?

“When it gets cold, my plates kind of get cold.”

3: What is the first bowl game

Ohio State ever played in? 4: Who was the first Ohio State

football player to have his number retired? 5: Which Ohio State player had his

number retired most recently? Answers: 1. Pittsburgh; 2. 1972; 3. Rose Bowl in 1921 4. Archie Griffin; 5. Bill Willis

— Ohio State defensive back Tyler Moeller talks about the two metal plates he still has in his head as the result of being assaulted in a Florida restaurant in 2009.

Jalin Marshall, a junior quarterback from Middletown with an offer from Ohio State, rushed for 296 yards and scored two touchdowns and passed for 57 yards in a 42-30 loss to Cincinnati Moeller in a second-round Division I playoff game last Friday. Adolphus Washington and Dwayne Stanford of Cincinnati Taft will announce their college choices on Nov. 22, according to their coach Mike Martin. Both have offers from Ohio State. Washington is a defensive end and Stanford is a receiver. Michael McCray Jr., a junior linebacker from Trotwood-Madision, is hoping for an offer from OSU, where his dad Mike played in the 1980s, but has not gotten one yet. Purdue, Tennessee, Syracuse and Toledo have made offers to him.

Penn State at Ohio State, 3:30 p.m., Saturday, ABC QUARTERBACKS

RECEIVERS >

A year ago, Ohio State’s Braxton Miller was playing for Huber Heights Wayne in the state playoffs, a fact some of the critics of his passing ability seem to overlook. Miller is primarily a running threat but has won one game (Wisconsin) with a touchdown pass in the last minute of the game and nearly did it again in a 26-23 loss to Purdue last Saturday. Matt McGloin (1,386 yards, 7 TDs) and Rob Bolden (526 yards, 1 TD) have shared the quarterback job for Penn State. Both have struggled with accuracy — McGloin is completing 54 percent of his passes and Bolden is hitting only 43 percent. Advantage: Even

Ohio State gets DeVier Posey back after he sat out the first 10 games of the season because of two suspensions. Posey, who had 53 catches last year, brings credibility to a receivers group so lacking in star appeal that there are people in witness protection programs who are easier to recognize than a Buckeyes receiver. Derek Moye (34 catches, 592 yards, 3 TDs) is fifth on the career receptions list at Penn State. Justin Brown has 32 catches and Devon Smith has 21. Advantage: Penn State

OFFENSIVE LINE J.B. Shugarts missed the Purdue game with a knee injury, but possibly could return this week. Without him, Ohio State rushed for 166 yards, its lowest total since a 10-7 loss to Michigan State on Oct. 1. If Shugarts can’t play, Jack Mewhort probably will move out to tackle from guard and Cory Linsley will play guard. Penn State ranks 10th in the Big Ten’s total offense statistics (358.5 yards a game), which is one spot ahead of OSU (317.6). Tackles Quinn Barham and Chima Okoli and guard Johnnie Troutman are the leaders of this unit for Penn State. Advantage: Even

DEFENSIVE LINE > Injuries could be a factor here, too, for Ohio State. Defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins left the Purdue game with a leg injury but could play this week. John Simon (6 sacks) leads OSU. But the freedom Purdue quarterback Robert Marve had to maneuver his team to an overtime win last Saturday shows how much OSU misses speed rusher Nathan Williams, who went out in the season opener with a knee injury. Defensive tackles Devon Still (16.5 tackles for losses, 4 sacks) and Jordan Hill (8 tackles for losses) make Penn State formidable inside and end Sean Stanley has four sacks. Advantage: Penn State

LINEBACKERS >

DEVIER POSEY After enduring what turned into a 10-game suspension, the 6-foot-2, 210-pound senior receiver from Cincinnati returns to the field. A year ago he was outstanding with 53 catches for 848 yards and seven touchdowns.

Leading tackler Andrew Sweat went out of the game early at Purdue with a concussion and his recovery time could be measured in weeks instead of days. Freshman Ryan Shazier had a big game (7 tackles, 1 sack) filling in for Sweat. For Penn State, Gerald Hodges has a team-high 86 tackles, including 19 against Illinois. He has 10 tackles for losses. Penn State lost its best linebacker Michael Mauti for the season with a knee injury in September. Advantage: Penn State

DEFENSIVE BACKS

Ohio State safety C.J. Barnett said OSU’s defense, “had a lot of missed opportunity left on the field” against Purdue. It also got off to a slow start against an opponent who was a heavy underdog for the second game in a row. The Buckeyes have forced only two turnovers in their last three games. < RUNNING BACK Dan Herron’s streak of consecutive games of 100 yards Penn State free safety Nick Sukay has three interceptions and cornerback or more rushing ended at three when he was held to 62 Chaz Powell has two interceptions and a kickoff return for a touchdown. yards at Purdue.

Big Ten could get 10 in bowls COLUMBUS — In a year of trouble and turmoil for the Big Ten, there is some good news. It looks as if 10 of the conference’s 12 teams could be bowl eligible by the end of the regular season in two weeks. Everyone but Minnesota and Indiana could be going to bowls. The Big Ten has contracts with only eight bowls, so some lesser-known bowls eager for the attention a Big Ten team would bring might jump at the chance to extend an invitation. Bowl season, obviously, will be very different for Ohio State this year than it has been for the last decade. Since 2002, OSU has played in three national championship games and has gone to one of the other BCS bowls five times. The winner of the Big Ten championship game will go to the Rose Bowl. There is a small possibility that if either Nebraska or Michigan finishes the season 10-2 but doesn’t play in the championship game it could get an invitation to a BCS bowl. But, assuming the Rose Bowl is the only BCS bowl for the Big Ten, there will be seven slots available for Big Ten teams in the Capital One Bowl, the Outback Bowl, the Insight Bowl, the Gator Bowl, the Meineke Car Care Bowl, the Ticket City Bowl and the Little Caesar’s Pizza Bowl. Any remaining teams would be looking at destinations like the Pinstripe Bowl, the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl, the New Mexico Bowl and the Military Bowl. Obviously, it’s too early to do anything other than speculate about where Ohio State might play in a bowl with two games left in the season. An 8-4 record would produce a very different result than 6-6 or 7-5. Penn State’s problems present an interesting dilemma for bowl committees and the Big Ten The Nittany Lions have eight wins already and interim coach Tom Bradley says they will not forego a bowl trip because of the university’s ongoing sex abuse scandal. One anonymous bowl representative called Penn State “radioactive” earlier this week, but another said his bowl would be glad to invite them.

Days until kickoff

OSU more worried about fixing own problems COLUMBUS (AP) — Everybody’s got a solution for what ails Ohio State. Interim coach Luke Fickell said he was grilled by fans at a meeting with a booster group on Tuesday morning. “Sorry about that,” he said after he showed up a few minutes late for his weekly news conference. “The Quarterback Club had a lot more questions today.” One persistent member of that club wanted to know why the Buckeyes only run on first and second downs and only throw on third. “He told me when he was coaching high school, ‘We threw it on first, threw it on

second and then ran draw plays on third and it was really successful,’” Fickell said. Then he added, “If Penn State’s listening, that might be our game plan.” There are plenty of problems for players, coaches and fans to address. The Buckeyes (6-4, 3-3 Big Ten) got off to a miserable start, showed rare flashes of being able to move the ball, but ultimately fell 26-23 in overtime at Purdue on Saturday. Now they have to address all the things that went wrong, and some that have been going wrong all year, before taking on the 21st-ranked Nittany Lions (8-2, 5-1) on Saturday in

their home finale. The No. 1 problem facing the Buckeyes is an offense — particularly a passing game — that has had great difficulty making plays. Over the last five games, they’ve completed just 27 of 63 passes (43 percent) for 401 yards, an average of just 80 yards per game. Purdue dared the Buckeyes to throw the ball. And they couldn’t. “A lot of it has to do with where they’re at with the quarterback position,” Boilermakers coach Danny Hope said after the game. “Even though (Braxton Miller) is a very talented quarterback, he’s a fresh-

man, and normally a freshman quarterback can’t come out there and manufacture a passing offense.” As a result, the Boilermakers crowded the line with eight or nine defenders and matched up with any receivers. As a result, Ohio State was limited to 166 yards on the ground 101 yards fewer than it had averaged over the previous four games. Miller was 8 of 18 passing for 132 yards and two touchdowns. “You’ve just got to be able to make a few yards and rely on some of those guys up front even if they are putting in the extra guys,”

Fickell said. “Obviously there are a lot more questions. We all know. We’ve said it a million times: Balance has got to be the key. We’ve got to create and find some more of that whether it’s throwing it or screening it or drawing it like the guy from the Quarterback Club said.” Fickell said one of the problems is that receivers aren’t getting open. The return of DeVier Posey might solve that. Posey has had two different NCAA suspensions both for accepting improper benefits, first from a tattoo-parlor owner for signed memorabilia and the second for

being overpaid for a summer job totaling 10 games. He returns to the Buckeyes just in time to play in his final game at Ohio Stadium. His loss has been felt more than anyone might have guessed. He was the second-leading receiver last year with 53 catches for 848 yards and seven touchdowns. All of this year’s wide-outs in 10 games have combined for 46 catches for 745 yards and five touchdowns. Posey also brings a level of consistency, something sorely lacking in the receiving corps. He has caught a pass in 27 consecutive games.

Hall to miss season Bengals without star cornerback CINCINNATI (AP) — The Bengals are learning to get along without a cornerback who is also one of their cornerstones. Leon Hall tore his left Achilles tendon in a loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday, ending his season. The Bengals (6-3) will try to stay in contention in the AFC North without one of their most indispensable players. How indispensable? When they gave contract extensions to AP PHOTO their most important players Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown (84) catches a before the season, Hall was a pripass against Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Leon Hall (29) in the ority, getting his deal rewritten first half Sunday in Cincinnati.

we built this defense around Leon and that’s the honest-toGod truth,” safety Chris Crocker said. “You can’t do a lot without having a shutdown corner. We still have guys who are talented and we’ll do what we do we’re not going to change anything, because we can’t but it’s hard to lose somebody.” The first-round draft pick from Michigan in 2007 teamed with Johnathan Joseph to form one of the league’s top tandems.

10 games into the season and DeVier Posey will finally be permitted to make an appearance for Ohio State. Can he save the day? Twice suspended by the NCAA and Ohio State for taking improper benefits, first cash and tattoos for signed memorabilia and then being overpaid for a summer job, now Posey has a lot on his shoulders as he returns for the Buckeyes’ game on Saturday against No. 21 Penn State (8-2, 5-1 Big Ten). Some are counting on him adding an emotional boost for the Buckeyes (6-4, 3-3). Others expect his presence to open things up for Ohio State’s onetrick pony of an offense. Maybe Posey might just allow the Buckeyes to have a passing game for a change. “I think it’s going to help the offense as a whole,” said running back Dan “Boom” Herron, who was suspended along with Posey for five games for their roles in the tattoo scandal at Ohio State. “He’s definitely going to bring great leadership

sure he’s going to get open because DeVier’s a great receiver. He can help us out by getting some first downs, catching some balls down the field and it also helps kind of open the run game up a little bit.” A year ago, Posey was second on the team behind current Chicago Bears receiver Dane Sanzenbacher with 53 catches for 848 yards and seven touchdowns. That’s a chunk of offense to lose. With a freshman quarterback now starting (Braxton Miller), the lack of a go-to receiver has all but eliminated Ohio State going to the air. Over the last five games, the Buckeyes are averaging just over five completions a game. That is clearly not enough to keep defenses honest by preventing them from loading up against the run. “It’s a challenge,” center Mike Brewster said of having to fight off extra defenders on running plays. “It’s just something that we’ve kind of gotten used to now. They know what we’re going to do and we just have to continue

the job done anyway. Getting DeVier back definitely adds a threat out there, so hopefully that’ll help us.” Many of his teammates admire how hes handled his two suspensions, each one five games in length. “I was kind of amazed at how positive he stayed,” said defensive lineman Solomon Thomas, yet another player who also sat out the first five games due to Tattoo-gate. “Being in his shoes, I don’t know if I would have held together like he did. We’re basically just always asking for advice. It’s kind of weird. I’m playing, my suspension’s up and he’s still suspended and I’m asking him for advice and how to deal with things.” Posey returns just in time for senior day. Interim coach Luke Fickell isn’t sure how a crowd of 105,000 at Ohio Stadium will respond to Posey when hes introduced before the game. Will there be applause for those formerly suspended for staying in school and continuing

BEREA (AP) — Not long after he was named Cleveland’s coach, Pat Shurmur went unrecognized in local restaurants. These days, he doesn’t go out very often. “My wife Jennifer is an outstanding cook so I have no problem being home,” he said, smiling. In the middle of a season sliding the wrong way, Shurmur limits his public appearances to Sundays. These are tough times for the first-year coach, the Browns and their passionate fans, many of whom have grown so tired of the losing that their anger has turned to apathy. On Thursday, an upper-deck seat for Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars could be purchased from an online ticket brokerage for just $5. This is Cleveland, where football and faith are intertwined but where the local team has been breaking hearts for decades. The Browns (3-6) shattered a few more last week when

Rose Bowl would accept Penn State By The Associated Press

UConn cruises to 14th straight win Alex Oriakhi had 16 points and eight rebounds to lead No. 4 Connecticut to its 14th consecutive win, 80-60 over Maine on Thursday night. Jeremy Lamb also scored 16 points and freshman DeAndre Daniels added 15 for UConn (3-0). Andre Drummond and Tyler Olander both added double-doubles. Drummond had 11 points and 14 rebounds, while Olander chipped in 11 points and 10 boards. See Page 17.

The chief administrative officer of the Rose Bowl says if Penn State wins the Big Ten title, the Nittany Lions will be free to play in the toptier postseason game as far as he’s concerned. Kevin Ash said Thursday that the Rose Bowl would let the Big Ten decide if there is a reason its champion shouldn’t play the Pac 12 winner in Pasadena, Calif., on Jan. 2. “Whoever the champions are,” Ash said, “we’ll welcome with open arms.” There have been calls for Penn State to decline a bowl bid in the aftermath of the child sex-abuse scandal involving former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky. The

scandal led to the firings of coach Joe Paterno and the school president. New PSU president Rod Erickson didn’t give a definitive answer last week when asked about a prospective bowl bid. “We’ll wait and see at the appropriate time what decision is made,” Erickson said. “At this point, the expectation would be where they deserve to play, they will play.” Interim coach Tom Bradley also has said he hopes his team plays in a bowl. The Nittany Lions (8-2, 5-1) are among eight bowl-eligible teams in the Big Ten and are alone in first place in the Leaders Division with two regular-season games left. Big Ten spokesman Scott

Chipman said his conference has taken no position on whether Penn State should accept a bowl bid and that the league’s selection procedure would not be altered because of the scandal. Capital One Bowl chief executive Steve Hogan, whose bowl is No. 2 in the Big Ten selection order, said his committee would base its matchup on on-thefield performance and that it would be unfair to penalize players who had nothing to do with the scandal. Sandusky, who is accused of molesting eight boys over 15 years and says he is innocent, retired from Penn State in 1999. Spokesmen for the Outback and Insight bowls, Nos. 3 and 4 in the Big Ten order, declined to comment on how Penn State would be viewed by their selection commit-

tees. The Gator (No. 5), Meineke Car Care (No. 6) and Little Caesars Pizza (No. 8) bowls didn’t return messages seeking comment. Tom Star, president and chief executive of the TicketCity Bowl, the Big Ten’s No. 7 bowl, said he wouldn’t hesitate to take Penn State if the Lions were available. “Our uppermost thoughts are with the victims,” Star said. “I don’t think anyone has been dealt more of an injustice in life than them. I think it would be a further injustice if the right to play in a bowl game was taken from the players. I don’t see how it helps the situation. It’s not an academic situation, it has nothing to do with the players on the current team, and there are no NCAA violations.”

also plays cornerback in passing situations. “We’re already playing good up front, the front seven. They just have to play better. The guys who come in, there can’t be any letdowns or any slack.” Three relative newcomers will find themselves in big roles. The Bengals traded for Kelly Jennings last August to provide depth. Jennings, a first-round draft pick by Seattle in 2006, started 14 games for the Seahawks last season. Jennings has missed

three games early in the season because of a sore hamstring and his unfamiliarity with coordinator Mike Zimmer’s system. Now, he moves into a starting spot. “I finally got a chance to play three games backto-back,” Jennings said. “With the injuries, I played two games and then I was out another two games. So I’m starting to settle down, calm down. “It’s a chance for me to play more, a chance for me to get in the groove. I believe this is what they

brought me in for if something like this were to happen so I’ll be ready to play.” Adam “Pacman” Jones also becomes more important with Hall gone. The Bengals gave Jones another chance at the NFL last season, and he won the No. 3 cornerback spot before a neck injury at midseason prompted him to have surgery. Jones missed the first six games this season while completing his recovery from the neck problem. He pulled his

right hamstring in his first game back and pulled groin muscles during practice last week, leaving him inactive for the last two games. “I hate it for Leon, but someone has to step up,” Jones said. “Hopefully, I will be ready for Sunday. I’ve been dying for this opportunity. “They’ve been waiting on me patiently. I’ve had some nicks and knacks. I might have to play through a little pain to do what we have to do. I’m prepared, and we’ll see

how it goes.” Then there’s Clements, a 31-year-old playing well so far. He becomes their top cornerback. “One thing that I’ve learned: You don’t really force it,” Clements said. “Just continue to do your job and your responsibility and everything will take care of itself.” One thing won’t change: Cincinnati’s style. The Bengals play tight man-to-man coverage, something they won’t abandon with a different cast.

No. 4 UConn rips Maine, 80-60

Drawing Koufax comparisons

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Alex Oriakhi had 16 points and eight rebounds to lead No. 4 Connecticut to its 14th consecutive win, 80-60 over Maine on Thursday night. Jeremy Lamb also scored 16 points and freshman DeAndre Daniels added 15 for UConn (3-0). Andre Drummond and Tyler Olander both added double-doubles. Drummond had 11 points and 14 rebounds, while Olander chipped in 11 points and 10 boards. NO. 7 FLORIDA 91, N. FLORIDA 55

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Kenny Boynton scored 20 points and Erving Walker added 17 to help Florida bounce back from a loss at No. 3 Ohio State. Freshman Bradley Beal chipped in 12 points and 10 rebounds for the Gators (2-1), who won their eighth consecutive home game and this one was completely one sided from the opening tip. NO. 16 ALABAMA 62, MARYLAND 42

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Tony Mitchell scored 15 of his 17 points in the first half and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead Alabama in the opening round of the Puerto Rico Tip-Off. Mitchell was 7 of 12 from the field, including

3 for 4 from 3-point and Trevor range, Releford scored 10 points for the Crimson Tide (3-0). NO. 17 MICHIGAN 59, W. ILLINOIS 55

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 16 points and Trey Burke added 14 for the Wolverines in their final tuneup before heading to Hawaii to play No. 10 Memphis on Monday. Michigan (3-0) led by five with 3:06 remaining when Western Illinois’ Obi Emegano missed a free throw that would have completed a threepoint play, and Hardaway scored at the other end to make it 5346. MISSISSIPPI ST. 69, NO. 19 TEXAS A&M 60

NEW YORK — Dee Bost scored 20 points, including a big 3-pointer with 3:16 to play for Mississippi State in the semifinals of the 2K Sports Classic benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer. The Bulldogs (3-1) will play the winner of the game between No. 15 Arizona and St. John’s in Friday night’s championship game. NO. 24 MISSOURI 83, NIAGARA, 52

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Marcus Denmon scored 22 points to lead five Missouri players in double figures, and the Tigers rode a hot-shooting first half to an easy win.

Posey ■ CONTINUED FROM 17 to practice without a game as a reward? Or boos for making decisions that put themselves ahead of NCAA rules and the team? “I can’t control that,” Fickell said. “They’ve made a mistake. They’ve served their penance. They’ve shown what they can do in the way that they’ve handled themselves. (The fans) haven’t been there every day to see how they’ve been in that locker room, what they’ve meant to those other guys, whether they were freshmen or seniors along with them. “So. hopefully they will

understand that and give them their due.” The bottom line is that Posey’s teammates appear to be thrilled he’s back. How much impact he has on the offense is almost secondary to his presence on the field or on the sideline. “DeVier’s a good dude,” Thomas said. “It’s going to pay off for him being humble and handling it the way he did. He’s just going to make the best of his two games. He doesn’t point fingers and he doesn’t blame anybody. You can ask any of the younger guys he’s still an outright leader on our team. He still leads. It’s amazing.”

Dodgers’ Kershaw named NL Cy Young winner NEW YORK (AP) — Clayton Kershaw might be the only one not comparing him with Sandy Koufax. Both left-handed aces for the Los Angeles Dodgers. And now both Cy Young Award winners. “I’m still uncomfortable with it,” Kershaw said Thursday after winning his first NL Cy Young in a runway. “I don’t want to have any disrespect for Mr. Koufax. He did it for a long time. He won a lot of awards and he won World Series. He threw no-hitters. Just a lot of things I’m not anywhere close to accomplishing yet. I have tremendous respect for him and would never want to ever put myself in the same category as him.” Kershaw received 27 of 32 first-place votes and 207 points in voting by the Writers’ Baseball Association of America. Philadelphia’s Roy Halladay, last year’s winner, was second with four first-place votes and 133 points. Phillies teammate Cliff Lee was third with 90 points, followed by Arizona’s Ian Kennedy with 76 points. “I always dreamed about playing in the big leagues. I never dreamed about doing anything special in the big leagues. I don’t think any kid ever does,” Kershaw said. “The people I’m now associated with, just by having this award, is something that I never thought would ever happen.” Koufax, among the greatest left-handers in baseball history, won three Cy Youngs for the Dodgers in 1963, 1965 and 1966. Kershaw has a long was to go before he matches those accomplishments.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw follows through on a delivery to the San Francisco Giants during the first inning of a baseball game in Los Angeles on Sept. 20. “Whenever you have a Cy Young next to your name, there’s going to be expectations that go along with it,” Kershaw said. “Whenever I look at a pitcher and I see that he’s won a Cy Young Award, I think, you know, this guy, he better be good. And that’s what I hope to be. I hope people have that expectation for me.”

With a big curveball that might be the best in baseball, Kershaw won the NL’s pitching triple crown. Pitching on a team that went 82-79, he led the league with a 2.28 ERA and 248 strikeouts and with a 21-5 record tied Kennedy for most wins. The 23-year-old lefthander, whose previous high for victories was 13 in

2010, dominated the league during the final two months of the season, going 8-0 with a 0.96 ERA in his final nine starts. Kershaw was 5-0 against the defending World Series champion San Francisco Giants, going 4-0 with a 0.30 ERA in head-to-head matchups with Tim Lincecum, the 2008 and 2009 winner.

Loss for Woods; U.S. leads Presidents Cup MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Tiger Woods made the first move, reaching out to shake hands with his excaddie, that went a long way toward dousing the endless chatter over their acrimonious breakup. Twelve holes later, as

short a Presidents Cup match that has ever been played, Steve Williams had the last laugh. In the 112 matches of various formats that Woods has played in his professional career, he never had a loss like this one. Playing again with Steve Stricker, an

American tandem that was unbeatable two years ago, they didn’t win a hole and didn’t make a birdie in tying the Presidents Cup record for the worst loss ever, 7 and 6. “We were just slightly off,” Woods said. “On a golf course like this, it

doesn’t take much.” That match was the biggest surprise on an opening day that featured a few unlikely twists at the end, with the Americans making two late rallies to halve matches for a 4-2 lead over the International team.

endured since the Browns returned as an expansion team. A fellow Midwesterner, he appreciates their passion and pain in rooting for a team that has gone 67-134 and made just one playoff appearance in 13 years. When he ventures out now, Shurmur encounters fans who support him and others who aren’t as comforting. “There are people that are encouraging and then there’s also folks that may be a little bit frustrated,” he said. “It’s just part of it. I think I understand it. I

think I do and I appreciate everybody’s passion. I think I get it.” The negativity outside the Browns’ headquarters may be growing, but Shurmur has insulated himself to block out the criticism. His job is to build a young team into a consistent winner, and he can’t fall back on injuries, inexperience or rotten luck as excuses for failure. Following Sunday’s loss, Shurmur, who was an assistant in Philadelphia and St. Louis before coming to

Cleveland, took exception to one question and pounded his hand on the podium to emphasize his point. Don’t think for a second he’s not frustrated, and don’t confuse any outward anger with disappointment. He needs time, and Shurmur hopes Browns fans and the media will give it to him. “I’m very competitive,” he said. “As you get through this you get a little bit calloused up to it. I probably fibbed just a little bit early on when you say you don’t read it or

hear it. Now, I’m not. I don’t read it, I really don’t. I just stay away from it because I think what’s important is you keep your focus moving forward. We’ve got very smart coaches and very willing players and we believe in what we’re doing so you push forward. “I understand when people get upset. But, on the other side we’re all competitive so if you don’t like hearing it, try not to listen. That’s how you push through it. That’s kind of how I do it.”

■ National Football League

Browns ■ CONTINUED FROM 17 Cleveland’s dependable field-goal unit botched a snap and kicker Phil Dawson, who had made four field goals, hooked a 22-yard attempt in the final minutes of a 13-12 loss to St. Louis. For a few Browns loyalists, whose devotion was already hanging by a thread, losing to a one-win Rams team was the final straw. Sports talk radio shows have been filled all week with calls from irate fans venting about Shurmur, whose conservative playcalling in the fourth quar-

ter was perfect fodder for Monday morning quarterbacks. The Browns ran the ball six straight times once with third-string tight end Alex Smith carrying and fumbling in the red zone to set up Dawson’s ill-fated try. Shurmur staunchly defended his strategy. “I’ll go to the well with what I did,” he said. There’s a segment of Browns fans who wish he’d jump in, too. Shurmur, the club’s fifth coach since 1999, said he understands what Cleveland fans have
