Trooper retains driving privileges

Received 180 day suspension, but will be allowed to drive for work William Duffield Staff writer

XENIA — A state trooper involved in an accident on Aug. 17 has received his punishment but will still be allowed to drive for work.

Jacob Daymon pleaded No Contest to a charge of Assured Clear Distance on Oct. 21. During his disposition in front of Xenia Municipal Court Judge Michael K. Murry on Oct. 28, he was fined $150 and court costs and had his driver’s license suspended for 180 days. Daymn requested driving privileges, which were granted.

At approximately 9:45 p.m. on Aug. 17, the patrol car operated by Trooper Daymon, of the Xenia Post, was traveling westbound on US 35 east of Stringtown Road. Trooper Daymon struck a motorcycle driven by Corey J. Waldman, 42, of Beavercreek.

Initial reports indicate that both vehicles were westbound on US Route 35 and Daymon’s cruiser “failed to maintain assured clear distance ahead,” according to OSP spokesperson Staff Lt. Anne Ralston.

“Exactly why and how that happened is still under investigation.”

After the initial impact of the two vehicles, the motorcycle came to rest on the right berm. The patrol car continued off the right side of the roadway into the grass then came to rest back onto the right berm.

Corey Waldman and his passenger, Amy L. Waldman, 38, of Beavercreek, were ejected and sustained non-life threatening injuries, attributed to their use of helmets.

CareFlight transported Amy L. Waldman to Miami Valley Hospital and she has since been released.

After a crash reconstruction team made its report, the case was turned over to a special prosecutor.

Paint program kicks off in Xenia Staff writer

XENIA — It was a commencement and conclusion of a citywide campaign to “Paint What Matters” in downtown Xenia. Representatives of Benjamin Moore Paint were in the city Wednesday to help kick off of the Paint What Matters Contest.

Benjamin Moore held a North American contest earlier this year calling on small cities and downtowns to nominate via electronic votes the top “Main Streets That Matter.” The theme struck the heart of DXN boosters as well as the greater Xenia community

who feverishly voted daily via internet for the opportunity to be selected as one of the top 20 Cities across the U.S. and Canada.

As winners of the Paint What Matters/Main Street Matters contest, nearly all of the buildings and business facades along the south side of Main Street in Xenia from Whiteman and King Streets downtown will be refreshed and repaired and receive a fresh coat of paint during the contest which is expected to take two weeks to complete, weather permitting.

Tips to avoid hitting deer on the road - stay safe during deer season Deer breeding season runs from October through January XENIA — During the day or at night, encountering a deer while you’re on the road can be dangerous and scary. Deer season is upon us and the Greene County Safe Communities Coalition would like to remind you that your safety on Greene County roadways is a top priority.

From Oct. 1, 2012 – Jan. 31, 2013, there were 11,388 deervehicle crashes statewide with 432 people injured and two people killed. November saw the most crashes with 5,050, or just about 168 per day. Greene County saw its fair share of deer-vehicle activity during the same period in 2012 totaling 179 crashes resulting in 6 injuries, but no fatalities. Because many deer-vehicle collisions go unreported to police and local authorities, the actual number of crashes throughout Ohio may be as high as 60,000 each year.

Last year, the areas with the highest number of deer-vehicle

crashes were urban areas.

What can you do to stay safe during deer season? Knowing what to do when you encounter a large animal on or near the roadway can be a life-saver.

Here are some tips: • Deer are most often along the road side near dawn, around 7 a.m., and again at dusk, approximately 7:30 p.m.

• Deer breeding season runs from October through early January, and during this time they are highly active and on the move.

• Though deer may wander into suburban neighborhoods, they are most frequently found on the outskirts of town and in heavily wooded areas.

• As pack animals, deer almost never travel alone. If you see one deer, you can bet that there are others nearby.

Preventive Techniques • To avoid a deer-vehicle collision, slow down. If you are driving through an area known

Bayless added that the city is grateful for the citizens for taking part as the city is focusing on the downtown area. The mayor also provided the “first swipe” of paint to kick off the event.

Prior to the event, Brandon Hamberg, Benjamin Moore Project Manager, said, “We share an enthusiasm for those small businesses and towns that continue to work and make a difference in the Main Streets and downtowns across the country, and are workign to make this event a great success.”

Hamberg also advised everyone to stay in touch to learn about the final celebration, which will be held after the work is completed.

for high deer populations, slow down and observe the speed limit. The more conservative you are with your speed, the more time you will have to brake if an animal darts into your path.

• Always wear a seatbelt. The most severe injuries in deer-vehicle collisions usually result from failure to use a seatbelt.

• Watch for the shine of eyes along the roadside and immediately begin to slow.

• Use your high beams whenever the road is free of oncoming traffic. This will increase your visibility and give you more time to react.

• Deer can become mesmerized by steady, bright lights so if you see one frozen on the road, slow down and flash your lights. Some experts recommend one long blast of the horn to scare them out of the road, as well.

• Pay close attention to

brake and give the deer time to get out of your way.

• Don’t rely on hood whistles or other devices designed to scare off deer.

These have not been proven to work.

• If you do collide with a deer (or large animal), call emergency services if injuries are involved, or the local police if no one is injured, but damage has been caused to your property or someone else’s. Never touch an animal that is in the roadway. Report the incident to your insurance company as soon as possible.

Keeping calm and driving smart improve your chances of avoiding a collision and staying safe on the road. These tips have been provided by Dawn McCaslin, www.geico. com.

Full moon hike ‘Dining with Diabetes’ Program set for in Fairborn Nov. 18, 25 and Dec. 2

FAIRBORN — Listen to the sounds of the wetlands coming alive with Greene County Parks & Trails during a Full Moon Night Hike beginning at 6 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 17 at Cemex Reserve, 1100 Sanctuary Drive.

caution signs indicating deer or other large animals. These signs are specifically placed in high-traffic areas where road crossings are frequent.

• If you’re on a multilane road, drive in the center lane to give as much space to grazing deer as possible.

Encountering a Deer • Never swerve to avoid a deer in the road. Swerving can confuse the deer on where to run. Swerving can also cause a head-on collision with oncoming vehicles, take you off the roadway into a tree or a ditch, and greatly increase the chances of serious injuries.

• Deer are unpredictable creatures, and one that is calmly standing by the side of the road may suddenly leap into the roadway without warning.

Slowing down when you spot a deer is the best way to avoid a collision. However, if one does move into your path, maintain control and do your best to

XENIA — If you’re among the 800,000 Ohioans diagnosed with diabetes — or if you suspect you may be one of the estimated 200,000 who has diabetes but don’t know it — make plans to attend “Dining with Diabetes.”

Greene County Extension is presenting this three-session class, held at 6-8 p.m. on Nov. 18, 25 and Dec. 2, at the Extension office, 100 Fairground Road. Melanie Hart, Family and Consumer Educator, and by Joyce Rickels, Registered Dietitian, from the Greene County Combined Health District will lead the sessions.

Participants will learn about signs of diabetes and possible complications, and ways they can manage the condition, including simple steps to control portions and the importance of getting regular exercise. In addition, the presentation will include a healthy food cooking demonstration each week.

The Dining with Diabetes program is $30 per person, but seating is limited, so participants are asked to sign up by November 14th by contacting the OSU Extension office at 937-372-9971 ext. 112 or ext. 116 or hart.382 @osu.edu or sandmanstover.1@osu.edu.

Letters to the Editor Support the Children Services levy

Editor: Some reading this may recognize my name as one who spoke out against the merger of the children services agency with the Department of Jobs and Family Services. My main reason was the differing services provided by the agencies and my concern that the services would suffer as a result of such a merger.

So why am I supporting the children services levy? The answer is simple – the children and families in Greene County. The staff at the Division of Children Services needs to know that they have our support as they continue to do an extremely difficult job. So I will vote for the Issue 2 on Nov. 5 and I ask you to do the same for our children.

— Elaine J. Hughes, R.N., Xenia

So, what is wrong?

Editor: There is a highly contested race for three seats on the Xenia Community Schools Board of Education. Voters in the Xenia Community School District have been exposed to a great deal of political rhetoric over the past few months.

The Xenia Board of Education has implemented difficult reductions over the past three years.

Painful changes were approved by the Board, as we focused on our primary function of delivering quality education to our children. The Board aligned its decisions to our adopted Strategic Plan. We, as a result, did not need to place a school levy on the November ballot.

We recognized that the taxpayers want us to be fiscally prudent.

Now we have five new elementary buildings and our fiveyear financial outlook is strong.

Staff members will receive extra salary-based lump sums the next two years. Our buses are state of the art and are running smoothly. Our buildings are clean and our grounds maintained. We have better technology. Our children are making academic progress.

Our Board of Education and the Administration have, traditionally, enjoyed a very professional, respectful and collaborative relationship. That positive work environment continues to exist between four board members, among themselves, and with the Administration.

We need five board members who are committed to working together. Our primary focus should be on providing the best possible education to the children of our community.

Barbara Stafford, Xenia BOE Member Editor’s note: The letter below had to be cut extensively to meet the 350 word limit.

A moral hazard

Editor: The Ohio Revised Code allows elected officials to use our tax dollars to promote big government and more spending, but it is not a blank check.

Common decency dictates that half-truths, innuendo and emotionally charged language are out of bounds, especially if the opposition’s rebuttal is censored, which it was in the recent campaign by Beavercreek City Council to pass a city income tax.

Public records released by Bill Kucera, Beavercreek Director of Financial Administrative Services, reveal that city council members, including Brian Jarvis and Debborah Wallace, authorized the expenditure of at least $10,828 in taxpayer funds to publish and mail three pieces of literature that in my opinion took council’s pro-income tax campaign over-the-top and in violation of the law. What is a citizen to do if he or she believes elected officials have broken the law?

Editorial

Be proactive on cyberbullying Parents everywhere must be rejoicing, because a new poll suggests that cyberbullying among students seems to be decreasing.

Imagine what a nightmare it is for parents to know their children are being tormented by hateful, or, at least, uncompassionate, peers?

Students have committed suicide under relentless torture perpetrated through Facebook and other social media. Those stories tear at the hearts of parents trying to guide their children through a healthy and happy adolescence.

A poll conducted recently by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research and MTV found that instances of what is called “digital abuse” are on the decline.

In addition, a movement is emerging that encourages students to not only avoid hurting feelings across the Internet, but to go to the aid of those whose feelings have already been fractured.

In truth, it’s hard to imagine a well-raised child being a party to such hurtful behavior. “Good kids” simply couldn’t believe acting so maliciously is acceptable, could they? Yet it happens on a large scale. Probably some students participate without realizing the horrible effects they are having on their classmates.

That’s where the schools and the parents come in. And they apparently are, according to the poll.

Results indicate that 49 percent of students have endured some kind of harassment from other students, down from 56 percent in 2011. And 34 percent of harassed children are going to their parents for help, up from 27 percent.

Parents must be proactive on this issue, monitoring what their own children write, as well as what is written about them.

No child should have to endure such emotional agony.

Well, one thing we can do is file a complaint under the Ohio Administrative Code with the Ohio Elections Commission, which I did. The OAC has its own set of rules and procedures similar to the Ohio Revised Code, and in fact the two intersect if a citizen chooses to appeal a ruling by an unelected state board such as the Board of Elections, which I tried to do.

Mr. Jarvis and Ms. Wallace are running for re-election to city council, and as most candidates do, promise to spend taxpayer dollars in a responsible manner. In their case, they have proven that nothing could be further from reality. First, with our tax dollars, they promote an income tax without accountability for how the increased revenue would be spent.

They will be re-elected to council as there are only three candidates for three seats, but don’t let them fool you with their hollow rhetoric. Chad Whilding will be the third candidate who will be elected in the Nov. 5t election, and strong support for Chad would send a powerful message to Jarvis, Wallace and the rest of city council that the citizens of Beavercreek finally have a voice on council, a situation that has been sorely lacking for quite some time now.

John Mitchel, Beavercreek Mill, Faulkner best choice

Editor: I was the Xenia Township Zoning Inspector for 12 years, and know each of the six candidates for Trustee. I wholeheartedly urge you to vote wisely for the only two candidates who can correct the chaos in Xenia Township: Scott Miller and John Faulkner.

In 2009, you elected Jim Reed. He is the only Trustee in Xenia Township history to be sued for corruption, breach of public trust and violation of Sunshine laws. While employed

there, I witnessed illegal and unethical practices which led to my resignation.

In 2011, you elected Barb Miller for Fiscal Officer. The Township finances are now in a shambles while your hardearned tax dollars are being spent on late fees, fines and penalties. In addition to Barb’s salary and health care, you pay Jim Reed’s wife to be Barb’s assistant, another person is paid to prepare minutes, another is paid to prepare the budget, and yet another person is being paid $24 per hour to train Barb.

Scot Miller and John Faulkner are first and foremost Christians. Their faith guides their decisions, and is reflected in their demeanor. Neither will resort to demeaning and vicious mudslinging as other candidates have done. Second, both are experienced public servants. Scott was a firefighter for City of Xenia. John was on the Xenia Township Board of Zoning Appeals (volunteer) for 25 years, and was a Xenia Township firefighter and chaplain. Third, they both have solid knowledge of township laws.

They have attended numerous trainings and are well connected to local and state leaders.

Fourth, they are devoted, long term residents . Both have intelligence, negotiating and leadership skills, and donate an incredible amount of time, energy and thought to Xenia Township.

These two candidates are ready and able to change the course Xenia Township is on.

This is not the time to bring on new, inexperienced people with self-serving agendas.

The choice is clear –more of the same wasteful spending, embarrassing lawsuits, or experienced ethical public servants.

Please vote wisely! For the truth about the other candidates please email me at rlp4690@ hotmail.com.

How did your crucible event change you?

COmmentary

By Gery L. Deer Deer in Headlines

Some people believe one is destined to become whatever is predetermined by their god, with all of life’s events planned in advance by some divine manifest destiny.

For others, that destiny is in a constant state of change, altered by the ebb and flow of cause and effect, guided not by the hand of a supreme being but by our own choices.

Generally, however, there are some events in life that we can pinpoint as our time of transformation; a crucible, if you will. Within it, parts of us are burned away leaving a changed, newly-formed person, sometimes for the better, sometimes not.

Divorce, extended health problems, the loss of a home, personal income or a job, can all bring about emotions and primal reactions for which we are rarely well prepared.

Perhaps the most powerful events that permanently change us are related to the death of someone close such as a family member, mentor or good friend.

For many the death of a loved one can be a crucible, forcing to the surface thoughts and emotions perhaps long buried, or never before experienced. How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life, but we seldom take that concept to heart.

Even as a topic of conversation, death is to be avoided. Its unmistakable finality has so marked humanity that coping with the end of life has served as a catalyst for the formation of enduring religious beliefs, some of which comfort, others frighten.

What may be surprising is that a ‘crucible event’ does not necessarily have to be a negative or unhappy experience. The same kinds of life-changing occurrence can come from positive influences as well such as the birth of a child, a marriage or sudden financial windfall.

The events themselves, however, aren’t what change us; we do that on our own. Most people don’t realize they have the power, for the most part, to alter how they react to outside influence. Feelings are generated by thoughts, so if we control our thoughts, we can better manage our feelings and make more productive decisions during difficult times. That’s a tall order though when it feels like the world is collapsing around you.

I’ve had many challenges in life, from an early age, but the most influential times were during my mother’s long struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. The role reversal (the child becomes the parent), watching helplessly as the illness ravaged her mind and body, and helping to do everything from administer medication to handfeeding her took a toll on me emotionally that I probably have yet to fully realize. But it did change me; in ways I can’t even imagine yet.

I look at the world a little differently now, having experienced for myself, largely for the first time, the fragility of life. But it was the experience of caring for my mom over the course of a couple of years that slowly burned away layers of my rigid exterior, making me “feel” more than I had previously been accustomed.

It’s really what we do with those feelings that make the difference in the long run. While an experience like I had with my mother could have left me bitter and resentful, I ended up taking to heart a more positive side and a greater appreciation for my family as a whole.

Others aren’t so lucky.

Many people emerge from crucible events in a much darker place, filled with resentment or guilt or other emotions that eat away at their core, keeping them from seeing the good that came out of whatever had happened.

And, there is always some good – sometimes it’s just very hard to see. Either way, we are changed, different, but it’s up to each of us to decide how those events ultimately affect our lives.

BALLOT Jeff Gordon’s win at 1 FIRST Martinsville marked his 88th career

SPRINT CUP SERIES

triumph in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Gordon sits third all-time in races won, third in top 5s (306) and fourth in top 10s (431) in 722 starts.

BOWTIE BRIGADE Jeff Gor2 THE don’s Martinsville win captured the

2013 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Manufacturers’ Cup Championship for Chevrolet. It marks the 11th consecutive year and the 37th time overall that Chevy has captured the prestigious title in NASCAR’s premier series. In the 33 Cup Series races run in 2013, Chevy drivers have captured 14 victories.

MAN, SCHRADER Short3 GOOD track legend and NASCAR veteran

Ken Schrader will retire from Cup racing at season’s end. In 762 Cup starts, Schrader has four victories, all coming in his tenure at Hendrick Motorsports.

NOT GONNA END WELL 4 IT’S Kevin Harvick and Richard Chil-

dress Racing driver Ty Dillon engaged in some in-race aggression during Saturday’s Truck Series race in Martinsville. It prompted a member of Dillon’s crew to toss a sledgehammer at Harvick’s truck on pit road and some pointed comments from the longtime RCR employee who will leave the team at season’s end. “Exactly the reason why I’m leaving RCR,” Harvick said. “Because you’ve got those kids coming up, and they’ve got no respect for what they do in this sport and they’ve had everything fed to them with a spoon.” He later apologized for the comment.

Back in the Martinsville Groove Gordon grabs win; Johnson, Kenseth tied atop standings

By MATT TALIAFERRO Athlon Sports Racing Editor

The focus entering the Goody’s Headache Relief Shot 500 on Sunday was on one eight-time Martinsville winner.

That driver, Jimmie Johnson — with a gaudy 5.3-place average finish at the half-mile track entering the event — also happened to find himself in the thick of a championship fight.

Adding to the title implications, Johnson’s chief rival, Matt Kenseth, had never claimed Martinsville as one of his favorite stops. A decidedly mundane 15.8-place finish in 27 starts — with zero wins — pretty much told the tale.

But it’s funny how the motivation of a championship can render past truths meaningless.

As the sun set over the small Virginia town on Sunday and fans filed out of the historic facility, it was another driver, Jeff Gordon, who scored his eighth win in Martinsville and the 88th of his Hallof-Fame-career.

“Sometimes guys make (winning) look easy, and it’s not,” said Gordon, who has one win in 2013. “I think what’s even tougher is when you’re not getting the wins and just over time it just starts to accumulate, and it’s hard to keep the confidence in what you’re doing — each individual on the team as well as to-

gether as a team.”

He also broke a 32-race winless skid and moved to within 27 points of the championship leaders — a deficit that still makes the four-time champ an extreme longshot to win title No. 5.

“We’re all alive, but there are two that are in it,” he said. “Our job is to make it three. We have to put pressure on those guys. We’ve got to fight hard and see if we can’t do something extraordinary.”

Meanwhile, Kenseth turned the tables on Johnson, leading the most laps (202) and running second to Johnson’s fifth, tying the duo atop the standings in NASCAR’s Chase for the Sprint Cup with three races remaining.

“I felt like today was an opportunity,” said Kenseth, who lost the lead to Gordon with 21 laps remaining. “I felt like today was an opportunity to get a points lead back — I honestly did.

“I couldn’t be much happier, but I am disappointed I got beat there at the end. I wish I could have done something a little better. I feel good about the weekend. I feel like we can go do some racing here in the next three weeks.”

Johnson, who entered the race with a four-point lead in the standings, took the lead two laps into the race and led for a total of 123 circuits. Aided by 17 caution periods, pit strategies shuffled the field throughout the day. At times, each championship leader found him-

self mired in the field, although both battled back into the top 5.

“It’s been a great battle with the 20 (Kenseth),” Johnson said. “And the 24 (Gordon) has clearly shown he wants to be a part of this deal, as well.

“It’s going to be a dogfight at the end — the way I would want to go racing for a championship, and I know exactly what the fans want to see.”

After assuming the points lead at Talladega, this stop was billed as the one where Johnson would put the clamps on his sixth championship. Instead, Kenseth took the fight to the No. 48 team. In a performance that mirrored his run at New Hampshire Motor Speedway early in the Chase — Kenseth scored the win at a track that he’d never won on before — the firstyear Joe Gibbs Racing driver proved that this playoff chase will not be settled prematurely.

“I really felt like if we came out of here in the lead or tied or close to it, I really felt like we got what it takes to race in the last three races,” Kenseth stated. “I feel like when my team is at its best and we do everything right, I feel like we can race anybody at these next three tracks (Texas, Phoenix, Homestead).

“Anything can happen, but man, we’re in it and we’re going to three really good tracks, so hopefully we can perform here the next three weeks and have a race.”

Wallace earns historic NASCAR win

By MATT TALIAFERRO Athlon Sports Racing Editor

Darrell Wallace Jr. is going to accomplish big things in his NASCAR career but first things first, right?

The 20-year-old Wallace cleared that first hurdle on Saturday, scoring his first NASCAR touring series win in the Camping World Truck Series at Martinsville Speedway. It marked the second time in NASCAR history and first since 1963 that an African-American driver had won on the sport’s national level. Wendell Scott was victorious in Jacksonville, Fla. “This means everything,” Wallace said. “This is an emotional win for me, especially doing it in Wendell Scott’s backyard. I love coming here to Martinsville — it’s always good to me. It finally paid off. I think it’s my third trip here. I love coming here.”

Darrell Wallace Jr.

Scott, a native of Danville, Va., made 495 starts at what is now NASCAR’s Cup level from 19611973. He is a NASCAR Hall of Fame nominee.

Wallace is one of a very few drivers to come out of NASCAR’s Driver for Diversity program who seems on the verge of big things.

The other, Kyle Larson, will run a full season at the Sprint Cup level

next year.

Wallace scored six wins in NASCAR’s K&N Pro Series East — akin to Major League Baseball’s Single-A level — from 2010-12. In his first season at the Truck Series level, Wallace has driven his Kyle Busch Motorsports truck to five top5 and 11 top-10 finishes in 19 races.

Wallace led a race-high 96 laps en route to his victory but had to survive a final restart with five laps remaining.

Team owner Kyle Busch placed three trucks in the top 15.

“This is certainly a monumental day and hopefully one that he’ll remember for a long time and can cherish,” Busch said. “The first (win) is always the most important one and it seems like they can just come right after that pretty easily.”

Wallace currently sits eighth in the Truck Series standings.

The wall sneaks up on you very quickly. The track itself is extremely fast, and night racing there is a lot of fun. It has some good racing, but it seems like Texas is one of those tracks that is the most sensitive of all the tracks we go to.

Whether it is the way the stands are built or the way the wind comes across, it is just a really aero-sensitive track. It has grooves from the top to the bottom that produce some great racing.”

Classic Moments Texas Motor Speedway Denny Hamlin was in the championship fight of his life with Jimmie Johnson when the Cup Series roared into Texas Motor Speedway for the AAA Texas 500 in November 2010.

While Johnson ultimately prevailed in the war, securing the fifth of five consecutive titles in NASCAR’s top series, Hamlin won a decisive battle on an unforgettable Sunday afternoon in the Lone Star State.

Looking to prove that he and his No. 11 Joe Gibbs Racing team would give Johnson’s No. 48 team all they could handle to the bitter end, Hamlin did just that.

On a day when Johnson’s team struggled so badly on pit road that crew chief Chad Knaus took the extreme measure of replacing the entire crew mid-race with Jeff Gordon’s, Hamlin stormed to an impressive victory and took over the points lead from Johnson with just two races remaining.

While the points lead ultimately didn’t last, Hamlin’s Texas triumph, paired with the 48 team’s woes, was enough to prompt Hamlin’s crew chief, Mike Ford, to brag afterwards that the No. 11 team was better than the No. 48 bunch.

Athlon Fantasy Stall Looking at Checkers: Matt Kenseth owns the best average finish of anyone on the circuit at TMS (8.5) and has two wins.

Pretty Solid Pick: Surprise, surprise: Jimmie Johnson’s 9.1-place average (two wins) is second to Kenseth.

Good Sleeper Pick: He hasn’t made much noise in the Chase, but Carl Edwards’ three Texas victories is best on tour.

Runs on Seven Cylinders: Brad Keselowski has only two top 10s in 10 starts in Fort Worth.

Insider Tip: You’ll find that drivers are giving Kenseth and Johnson more room to operate as the Chase winds down. Expect the two to be top 5 at each event from here on out.

Danica to keep it clean in GoDaddy Super Bowl spot SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Don’t expect to see Danica Patrick take her clothes off, kiss a girl or do anything else risque during the next Super Bowl.

GoDaddy will again feature its famed spokeswoman in its infamous Super Bowl ads, but the website domain provider said Thursday it is canning the risque innuendo.

GoDaddy’s advertising campaign has leaned toward sexually suggestive themes since its early days when WWE diva Candice Michelle was the company spokeswoman.

But since Blake Irving took over as CEO in January, he’s tried to shift GoDaddy’s

advertising focus toward its actual company message.

“2014 marks a new era for GoDaddy Super Bowl commercials,” Irving said in a statement Thursday.

GoDaddy has purchased two 30-second spots, one for each half of the Feb. 2 game, and the company said Thursday “at least one of the two spots will feature” Patrick. The NASCAR driver has appeared in 12 Super Bowl commercials — more than any other celebrity.

“I love what’s going on at GoDaddy,” said Patrick, spokesperson for the company for nearly seven years. “Since our last Super Bowl, I’ve been

to the new Silicon Valley office and talked with customers who are genuinely grateful for how GoDaddy helps them grow their businesses online.

GoDaddy is for the go getter, the ‘little guy’ looking to compete with the ‘big guys’ and I love that.”

GoDaddy teased last year that it might be dropping Patrick from its campaign, only to use her in both Super Bowl spots. Her most prolific appearance came in a commercial starring supermodel Bar Refaeli, who made out on screen with a nerd. The ad ranked last in USA Today’s annual Super Bowl ad meter.

Patrick made a cameo as

a pilot in the second spot, which didn’t score much higher in USA Today’s poll.

Patrick’s first Super Bowl spot was in 2007, but GoDaddy first began using the Super Bowl to advertise in 2005 when it spoofed Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” in its commercial.

Although consumers often had no idea what GoDaddy was or offered, and the ads generally tanked in polls, they always had television viewers talking during the biggest advertising night of the year.

GoDaddy chief marketing officer Barb Rechterman said the 2005 Super Bowl debut got the company a lot of attention,

but GoDaddy has changed as it hits its 10-year advertising anniversary with the game.

“We’ve matured. We’ve evolved,” Rechterman said.

“Our new brand of Super Bowl commercials will make it crystal clear what we do and who we stand for. We may be changing our approach, but as we’ve always said, we don’t care what the critics think. We are all about our customers.”

The Super Bowl spots will be produced by Deutsch New York, the same agency that helped GoDaddy relaunch its brand last September with the “It’s Go Time” campaign featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme.

DEAR ABBY: I have been divorced five years and have five children, ranging in age from 23 to 8. When I was having trouble with my middle son, “Logan,” I found help from his godfather, “Carl.” I hadn’t seen Carl in years. He was my ex’s best friend when Logan was born.

Long story short, Carl and I have been in a committed relationship for two years now. He has been more a part of our lives than my

By Abigail ex has. Four of my Van Buren kids love Carl, and he is very involved Syndicated in their lives. Logan, Columnist however, hates him and throws a fit if his name is mentioned. I have tried to explain that I didn’t intend this to happen, but Logan feels I “took away his godfather from him.” Carl is still there for him, but Logan will have none of it and refuses to listen.

Carl and I mainly spend time together on the weekends we don’t have our kids, or meet for lunch or breakfast. I’m at a loss.

Logan is now 17. I don’t want to lose Carl. He’s a great man and wants what’s best for me and the

kids. What should I do?

— PULLED IN TWO DIRECTIONS IN CANADA DEAR PULLED: Logan may be 17, but he is acting like a child. Do not let his behavior discourage you from having a life. In another year he will be 18 — and either concentrating on finishing his education or finding a job.

Logan needs to realize that he hasn’t “lost” a godfather, and that everyone may eventually be gaining a stepdad. He also needs to understand that if he can’t accept it, he will find himself odd man out in an otherwise healthy, happy and functional family.

— DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend of five years, “Todd,” is a daily pot smoker. We met during our senior year of college, and I knew he smoked. I don’t use drugs, and I assumed that after college he would grow up. However, it seems unlikely that he will quit, and frankly, I’m sick of it.

Dear Readers: Many of you wrote sharing your hints about how to REDUCE MOTION SICKNESS. Here is what some of you had to say: Agnes in West Sacramento, Calif.: “I used the herb ginger root to calm the stomach: two capsules a half-hour to an hour before the trip started. Then another capsule every hour or whenever I started to feel queasy.”

Dave, via email: “My cure for motion sickness: Suck on a lemon. It worked for me as a child while riding miles in a car. It now works for my grandchildren.”

— DEAR ABBY: I would like to share a Thanksgiving tradition our family has enjoyed for years.

We realized that after a big holiday dinner we weren’t ready to eat a lot of dessert, so we started having “Pie Night” the evening before Thanksgiving.

After a light meal we could enjoy the various pies or cakes family members brought. It became one of our favorite traditions.

My father suggested it as a social event/fundraiser to the pastor of our local church, and it was one of their best-attended events. Our family is scattered across the country now, but those times were some of my favorites, and I thought some of your readers might like to incorporate it into their holiday celebrations, too.

— GOOD TIMES IN ARIZONA DEAR GOOD TIMES: They might, indeed, especially if they are trying to spread those extra calories over a longer period.

(And it would be a good idea to exercise the day after they indulge.) Thanks for the suggestion.

Robert Beyer, M.D., in California: “As an ophthalmologist, I sometimes have patients with this problem. Some of them obtain relief if they close or cover one of their eyes. It seems that in some individuals, motion sickness is a three-dimension motional perception problem.

Sibling rivalry comes to a head ZACH GREGORY Staff Writer

Sibling rivalries rarely get as complicated as this.

The Pauley family has roots in Greene County that go way back. Ron and Larry Pauley were three-sport athletes at Greeneview in the 1960’s. Their brother Bill is a local sports figure himself. He set the single game scoring record in basketball as a Ram, a record that has not been broken in over 40 years. He would go on to have a solid career at Ohio University.

Ron’s son Joe Pauley was co-captain of the Greeneview squad that faced off against LeBron James’ Saint Vincent-Saint Mary team in the state finals back in 2001.

Bill now lives in Arizona, and it’s his two sons that are adding their sporting legacy to a long family list. Austin and Brad Pauley, who chose to chose to play for separate high schools, will be facing off against each other when Hamilton

High School visits Perry today, Nov. 1, in Gilbert, Arizona.

Austin, a 6-foot 5-inch, 285 pound senior, is the older of the two brothers and goes to Perry High School. He is a three year lettermen on the offensive and defensive line and is being recruited by multiple D-I colleges including Ohio University, New Mexico, San Diego State, San Jose State, UC Davis, Utah and UNLV. Perry made the jump to D-I this year and has been struggling to keep up with the competition. They are currently 2-7 on the season, and won’t be getting any favors from Hamilton.

Hamilton is a powerhouse football program in Arizona. They are defending state champions, and have played in ten out of the last 11 championship games. Brad, a 6-foot 3-inch, 260 pound junior, got his starting position on the offensive line during the playoffs last year. Hamilton is 7-2 this year.

When Brad and his family decided that

Hamilton was the place for him, they never expected a situation in which the two brothers would face off. But after Perry High School made the jump to D-I, the prospect became a reality, and the Pauley family has fully embraced it.

Family from New York, Ohio, Florida and California will be flying to Arizona to see the brothers duke it out. They have made shirts celebrating the event, and fully expect the sibling rivalry to be an event.

“We asked them what it would be like in the post-game handshake,” said their father Bill. “Austin said he’ll give his little brother a Peyton Manning to Eli Manning hug.”

It’s safe to say that records can be thrown out the window when these two teams match up. Both teams will be giving it their all to win the final game of the season, and you can be that these brothers will do everything they can to win bragging rights at the dinner table.

Bengals can’t beat Dolphins in regulation TIM REYNOLDS AP Sports Writer

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Miami’s Caleb Sturgis made a 44-yard field goal with 11 seconds left and the Dolphins and Cincinnati Bengals went to overtime tied at 20-all Thursday night.

The Dolphins led 17-3 after Brent Grimes’ 94-yard interception return in the third quarter, then lost the lead after Cincinnati reeled off 17 straight points — including a spectacular 35-yard touchdown run

by Giovani Bernard in the fourth quarter.

Mike Nugent’s 54-yard field goal with 1:24 left put Cincinnati on top, but the Dolphins wound up taking the ensuing kickoff and driving to the Bengals 26. Sturgis did the rest, coolly making the kick that sent things to overtime — shaking off a slump that had seen him miss five of his last seven attempts, including a 34-yarder earlier Thursday.

Miami had been rolling earlier in the second half. Grimes stepped in front of a pass that Andy Dalton intended for Marvin Jones, and turned the turnover into the longest interception return for a score by

a Miami player since 2002.

It came five plays after what would have been a 50-yard touchdown pass — from Dalton to Jones — was brought back after a holding call against Jermaine Gresham.

Bernard had a 3-yard touchdown run later in the quarter for Cincinnati. The Dolphins didn’t take their first offensive snap of the third quarter until 2:03 remained. And when Bernard made at least five Dolphins miss on a brilliant run early in the fourth, the Bengals had Miami on its heels.

Ryan Tannehill had a 1-yard touchdown run and Sturgis added a 36-yard field goal in the first half for the Dolphins, who led 10-3 at the break and kept the seven-point edge heading into the final 15 minutes of regulation. Cincinnati got a 31-yard field goal from Nugent to open the scoring early in the second quarter.

Miami ran for 142 yards in the first half, the franchise’s most in the first 30 minutes of a game since piling up 174 before intermission against New England on Dec. 29, 2002.

Miami Dolphins cornerback Dimitri Patterson (24) tackles Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Mohamed Sanu (12) during the first half of an NFL football game, Thursday, Oct. 31, 2013, in Miami Gardens, Fla.

The Bengals lost AllPro defensive tackle Geno Atkins to a knee injury with 4:35 left in the second quarter. The team originally said he was questionable to return, then downgraded him to out a few minutes later. Miami lost offensive lineman Richie Incognito (neck) and cornerback Nolan

Carroll (concussion) to injuries in the first half.

Dalton was 29 of 46 passing for 306 yards in regulation, with four giveaways — a fumble and three interceptions.

Tannehill was 18 of 25 passing for 192 yards.

Even with the lead, there were still plenty of Miami struggles in the first half, including one

sequence where Lamar Miller got the Dolphins’ second-longest ground gain of the season — and the team essentially lost 2 yards on the play.

Miller carried the ball down the right side of the line, darted through a tiny opening near the sideline and took off toward the middle for what became a 41-yard carry. But as he neared the end zone, Cincinnati’s Carlos Dunlap ran Miller down, took a huge swipe with his right arm at the ball and knocked it loose.

Adam “Pacman” Jones recovered the bouncing ball for the Bengals in the end zone, running it out to the Cincinnati 43.

But the Miami defense forced a three-and-out, and after a punt pinned the Dolphins deep, they went on the 93-yard march capped by the third rushing touchdown of Tannehill’s career.

With that, the mood at Sun Life Stadium changed dramatically.

The Dolphins were hearing boos in the early going, after wasting a scoring opportunity created by defensive end Cameron Wake, who got to Dalton and forced a turnover at the Cincinnati 25 — Wake’s first sack since Week 1.

Resilient Red Sox lift Boston in wake of marathon bombings MICHAEL MELIA and STEVE PEOPLES Associated Press

BOSTON (AP) — For fans, players and political leaders who celebrated the Red Sox’s World Series title with cries of “Boston Strong,” the championship provided a jubilant finish to a season that was shadowed nearly from the start by the April bombings at the Boston Marathon.

The morning after he cheered the victory inside Fenway Park, Ed Carlson returned Thursday to the marathon finish line he had crossed months earlier, 20 minutes before the bombs went off, and then had scrambled to find his children in the ensuing chaos.

“It was quite a year,” said Carlson, 51, of Princeton, Mass. “To be at the marathon and then to be there for the World Series — I still tear up thinking about it.”

The success of the Red Sox, who finished last in their division only a year ago, became a welcome surprise and eventually a symbol of resilience for a city recovering from the twin bombings that killed three people and wounded more than 260.

Jarrod Clowery, a carpenter from Stoneham, Mass., who suffered severe burn and shrapnel injuries in the April 15 bombings, said he was inspired by the Red Sox, who began bonding in spring training over their beards.

“No one gave them a chance after that season last year … but they started growing those beards, they became a unit, and they turned around and won a World Series,” said Clowery, who has three friends who lost limbs in the blast. “I’m proud of those guys and happy for those guys.”

On Wednesday night, after the Red Sox defeated the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 6, thousands of fans clogged the streets around the finish line. It was a quieter scene Thursday morning as traffic sped over the blue and yellow line painted permanently on Boylston Street and people periodically stopped on the sidewalk to offer a solemn tribute.

Carlson, who took in the scene with his 17-year-old daughter, wore a new Red Sox World Series Champions baseball hat along with the same blue and yellow marathon jacket he wore to every Sox game he attended over the season. At Wednesday night’s game, he had his marathon medal in his pocket.

“It put some finality to the whole thing,” he said.

His daughter, Maggie, still remembers the fear she felt the day of the bombing.

“It was just scary. Very scary. My dad was running,” she said. “We were torn apart by this. And we were able to come back and win the World Series. It just shows how resilient we are.”

Sports Briefs NFL 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith activated JANIE McCAULEY AP Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — All-Pro 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith was activated to the 53-man roster from the non-football injury list Thursday, two days after he turned himself in to Santa Clara County authorities as he faces weapons charges.

One of San Francisco's dynamic pass rushers appears ready to return.

Smith had been undergoing rehab at an in-patient facility for substance abuse since late September and missed five games. With San Francisco (6-2) on its bye this week, Smith could resume practicing and working out on his own, then formally practice next week ahead of a Nov. 10 home game against the Carolina Panthers.
