s eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania experience a sharp increase in shale oil and natural gas production, a new public relations and communications entity has been created to provide businesssupport and publicrelations services. ShaleComm is a new division of the Prodigal Company, a full service marketing agency founded in the Mahoning Valley nearly 20 years ago. “ShaleComm is Prodigal’s response to the market’s demand,” BEVACQUA said Jeff Hedrich, president of Prodigal and ShaleComm. Current clients for the new ShaleComm division include V&M Star, a Youngstown pipemaker for the oil and gas industry; Patriot Water Treatment, a flow-back drilling water cleaner in Warren; and EnverVest, a manager of oil and gas assets for institutional investors. Vince Bevacqua, Prodigal’s vice president for Media and Public Relations, manages the new ShaleComm division as its executive vice president. “We have been doing communications for the energy industry for two years now,” said Bevacqua. In December of 2009, the agency was selected to coordinate and manage V&M Star’s announcement for a new $650 million mill project in Youngstown. Since then Bevacqua has helped V&M with communications and other public relations projects. “Working with V&M was an excellent introduction to the energy industry,” Bevacqua said. “And once we started exploring how various businesses, government entities and media outlets all fit into the Marcellus and Utica shale plays, we realized there was an unmet need for professional communications.” Representatives from Prodigal said ShaleComm was created to meet those needs. Bevacqua said companies large and small hoping to be part of the economic potential of the new oil and gas industry often don’t have proper communications resources, such as public relations, crisis communications and government relations. “(Oil and gas related companies) are so invested in doing their specific functions, they forget their businesses need to tell their stories,” he said. “Otherwise, landowners, government leaders, media and the general public get nervous. They don’t know what’s going on in this new and rapidly growing industry. That lack of communication creates confusion and misinformation, which the industry is dealing with right now.” For more information on ShaleComm, visit www.shalecomm.net.

Issue 2 - expensive, divisive and bulky By MARK C. PEYKO metro monthly editor
T
he most controversial Ohio ballot issue of the year has proved to be one of the most expensive and well-publicized issues in recent memory. Issue 2, which puts Senate Bill 5 up for a vote, has bulked up daily newspapers, provided fuel for statewide Occupy encampments, and led to sharp exchanges on talk radio. In addition, the battle has led to dramatic spikes in fund-raising by organizations and political groups seeking to either preserve or defeat Issue 2 on Nov. 8. Last summer, Dr. John Russo, director of the Center for Working Class Studies at Youngstown State University, predicted that Ohioans would see an unprecedented amount of spending by supporters and opponents of Senate Bill 5. “There’s so much corporate money going to be coming in for this,” said Russo in a phone interview last June. “That’s why the petition drive and the grass-roots organizing is so important. Because the corporate money that will be involved here will be enormous.” In its Oct. 27 online edition, the Toledo Blade reported that pro- and antiIssue 2 factions had spent approximately $28 million in four months to reach and convince voters. The controversial legislation, which was signed into law by Ohio Gov. John Kasich, was not enacted since opponents to the bill had raised enough signatures to place it on the state ballot in the fall. Senate Bill 5 (S.B. 5) curtails the bargaining powers of public employees in Ohio, and, if upheld by voters, would affect teachers, police, fire fighters, and other public-sector employees throughout the state. In addition, the legislation ends binding arbitration and prohibits strikes by public employees. The state constitution requires that the Ohio secretary of state to publish and distribute the complete text of statewide issues on the ballot. This requirement

resulted in the creation of a 60-page newsprint document – of which 58 pages were dedicated to Issue 2. Because the printed document needed to include the complete, original 300-page text of S.B. 5, daily newspapers in the Mahoning Valley that received the insert were noticeably thicker and bulkier. In some cases, the insert al-
most rivaled the page count of the newspaper editions in which they appeared. In late September, the Ohio Newspaper Association, a trade organization representing over 250 newspapers and news Web sites throughout the state, reported that newspapers in all 88 counties would receive the 60-page insert. Locally, inserts
appeared in the Oct. 19, Oct. 26, and Nov. 2 editions of the Vindicator and Tribune Chronicle. Other ONA member papers in the region receiving inserts included the Plain Dealer, Beacon Journal, Salem News and the Morning Journal in Lisbon. In addition to newspaper inserts, the voter-information piece was distributed in public libraries, various state offices, and boards of elections throughout Ohio. The Ohio Newspaper Association facilitated the placement of the newspaper inserts through AdOhio, the advertising and marketing arm of the trade organization. AdOhio handled the newspaper buys. In the Sept. 30 edition of the Columbus Dispatch online, the newspaper reported that advertising the ballot issues would cost the state $2.1 million. This figured was confirmed in a subsequent news release by Maggie Ostrowski, spokeswoman for Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted. The expenditure was approved by the state Controlling Board in late September. Not surprisingly, the battleground over Issue 2 is littered with competing campaign contributions. According to the online news site StateImpact, We Are Ohio (an anti-S.B. 5 political organization) had raised $19 million to repeal the law. StateImpact added that the majority of the $19 million was raised by teachers unions. (StateImpact, which reports on educational matters, is a multi-state collaboration facilitated by National Public Radio.) According to the StateImpact, Building a Better Ohio, a campaign organization in support of S.B. 5, has not released information on donor amounts, but rather released its list of donors. Some pro-S.B. 5 donors include Toledo-based Fiberglass manufacturer Owens Corning, the R.L. Lipton Distributing Company of Youngstown, and the Discount Drug Mart, a drug store chain headquartered in Medina.
In its Oct. 27 online edition, the Toledo Blade reported that pro- and anti-Issue 2 factions had spent approximately $28 million in four months to reach and convince voters.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Nurses Association CEO shares Issue 3 concerns TO THE EDITOR: As a registered nurse and someone with expansive public health knowledge, I write with grave concerns about Issue 3 – a proposed constitutional amendment on the Ohio ballot this November. While described as exempting Ohio from the Affordable Care Act, Issue 3 is really something much, much more. This amendment is a broad, sweeping ban on state and local government regulation of all health care, not just health insurance. Legal experts have determined it would likely stop new laws and make changes in laws. It puts Ohio’s ability to promote health care safety at risk. Specifically, I am worried it will affect: • licensing of and regulations for registered nurses and their scope of practice; • “pill mill” shutdown efforts to curb prescription drug abuse; • school immunization programs critical to infectious disease control; • local funding for mental health and developmental disabilities programs; • workers’ compensation employer contributions; and • employment gap insurance programs such as COBRA. It’s also important to note that Issue 3 is meaningless when it comes to the Affordable Care Act. Federal law trumps state law and exemption from the Affordable Care Act can only be done through the U.S. Supreme Court, not through a ballot initiative. Issue 3 will ultimately cost Ohioans millions of dollars in unnecessary lawsuits and tie the hands of state and local government from protecting public health. Regardless of what you think about national health reform, protect Ohioans’ health, safety and checkbooks by voting no on Issue Three.

Local volunteer group travels to Appalachia to aid home renovations in poor rural areas BY WILLIAM S. PEYKO SPECIAL TO THE METRO MONTHLY
T
he Mahoning Valley volunteer work crew that usually goes to New Orleans to assist in the rebuilding effort there recently had a new mission: help rebuild homes in rural Appalachia. The all-volunteer group traveled to Kentucky under the auspices of the Diocese of Youngstown in late summer. Our group included local volunteers from recent trips (Joe Frazier, John Pitzulo and myself ), plus a small group from St. Pius in Warren and Youngstown’s Cardinal Mooney. The journey started on Tuesday, Aug. 2 with a trip to St. Columba where we picked up John Pitzulo, who always acts as our work leader, and Nancy, another volunteer. We were joined by a group of students in another van from St. Pius. Several of the students also had worked with us in New Orleans. From there, we left for Kentucky. Our destination was St. Stephen’s Parish in Inez, Ky., but we stayed in nearby Paintsville. I rode to Paintsville with a man named Bruce, who was well-versed in the building profession. He also appeared to have led a very colorful life. He worked six years as a Niles police officer and was once a prosecutor. After a breakfast, we went to our first job, where we found plenty of willing workers. Two volunteers from St. Pius, Barbara and Sheila, knocked themselves out painting two rooms. They were assisted by Nath and Sonya who were brother and sister. Ross, a student from Cardinal Mooney, helped remove and clean the grimy blades on a ceiling fan. Nancy and I laid flooring under the watchful eye of John Pitzulo. When John left, Nancy and I kept installing flooring until we hit a snag that we couldn’t solve. Several of the women on the job varnished the new kitchen cabinets and, when they were dry, stored them in the house. Since we were working on two homes, the group split up into two work crews. We helped renovate a home belonging to a couple named Jason and Bobby and, a second home, which belonged to a woman named Alisha. This was our first day of work on the houses in Appalachia. Afterward, we went to St. Stephen’s for a nice supper. After dinner, Joe, John and I went to Lowes, where we bought paint, kitchen cabinets and other necessities in preparation for the next day of work. The following morning, Joe and I got up at 5:30 a.m. and hustled over to St. Stephen’s, but at that hour the place was locked up tighter than a drum. We pounded on the door to no avail. We waited around until a young man happened to come by. After that, we were able to get breakfast before the workday began. From there, we went to Alisha’s house and did various tasks: painting, sweeping up debris, and more painting. In the early afternoon, I helped John Pitzulo install new kitchen cabinets. My help consisted of holding the cabinets in place and putting a couple of anchor screws into the wall. John, who was working on the counter tops nearby, was having a rough time because the room was out of square. But he stayed with it until it was the way he wanted it. We also had help from a plumber from Kent, Ohio, who was named Harold. Bruce, the former Niles police officer, also aided in the effort and was quite versatile. I had a very, very minor role in the operation. Wednesday, Aug. 3 – Up at 5:30 a.m., on the road by 6 a.m., and on to St. Stephen’s for breakfast. Afterward, we did a variety of tasks: edged walls in a bedroom and moved painted boards. One volunteer removed trim and installed doors. After work, we piled into Joe Frazier’s van and headed back to St. Stephen’s where we were joined by two seminarians from Mexico. During dinner, one of the seminarians commented that the recent priest scandals had made it difficult for young priests to associate with children because parents were fearful that their children might be harmed physically or mentally. After dinner, we left for Lowes and picked up more supplies for

DURING THE TRIP, WE MET REV. RALPH W. BEITING, FOUNDER OF THE CHRISTIAN APPALACHIAN PROJECT. HE RUNS A LONG-TIME OUTREACH MISSION FOR THE POOR. the following day. Thursday, Aug. 4 – Up at 5:30 a.m. We went to St. Stephen’s and found ourselves locked out again. After breakfast, we went to the job, where I found a bunch of paint brushes, rollers and pans waiting for me. I joined Sonya and Theresa in priming a bathroom. We finished painting the ceiling and the walls with primer but the paint didn’t look too good. In the afternoon, I put a second coat on the walls but wasn’t too happy with the results. Despite being dissatisfied, we had to quit early because we needed to get to St. Stephen’s so we could meet Rev. Ralph W. Beiting, founder of the Christian Appalachian Project. He was our local contact and founder of a long-time outreach mission for the poor. Beiting is very active in promoting assistance programs for the poor of Appalachia, even though there are only 12 practicing Catholics (four are nuns) in a population of 13,000. (He’s also a street preacher and wanted our group participate.) After Mass at dinner, Beiting gave us a brief history of the region. He said that in the early 20th century, a Hungarian named Himmler settled in the Inez and Louisa, Ky. area where he established coal mines. The mines flourished for many years. When they no longer produced and demand for coal decreased, the region was hard hit and conditions deteriorated. Part of Beiting’s mission has included helping the people of Inez and beyond by setting up assistance programs for children and adults. He has opened up stores and shelters for the very, very poor of Inez and Louisa. He is known nationally for his programs. Through his efforts, he met Sister Theresa, who is a personal friend of Colin Powell, and other national figures. When asked why are there are so few Catholics in his area, his responded: “I’m doing God’s work regardless of their religious beliefs.� John Pitzulo, Joe Frazier and I didn’t have the opportunity to attend Beiting’s street preaching as we had to get supplies from Lowes for Friday. Friday, Aug. 5 – On the job at 8 a.m. We finished painting the bathroom and still not too happy with the outcome, but did the best we could. At noon, the family whose house we were working on had quite a spread set up for us. There were burgers, franks, all kinds of salads, meatless dishes, and desserts of all kinds. During dinner, the family’s grandfather (Mr. Edward) entertained us by singing everything from gospel to bluegrass. His audience loved it, and we also found out that he was going to sing at a fair on the weekend. From there, it was back to the salt mines. We did more painting and helped hang a couple of doors; Sonya was quite proficient at installing door hardware. Then we brought all the lumber into the house and cleaned up the yard. Harold wasn’t quite finished with the plumbing but John Pitzulo said to wrap it up until next week. On the way to the hotel, John suggested we have a nightcap after we got cleaned up. Joe Frazier nixed the idea, but I accepted. So we went to a bar where there was a drunk next to John who kept ragging on him. The drunk man hit John on his arm several times and John told him in no uncertain terms to lay off. The guy apologized but kept annoying us. He wouldn’t stop, so we decided to leave. This guy was looking for a fight and he didn’t know how lucky he was that John had kept his cool. What a way to end a perfect week. We left Kentucky at 8 a.m. and on while on the road, I made three birthday calls to my son, Eric one in Kentucky, one in West Virginia, and one in Ohio. We arrived in Youngstown about 3 p.m. that day and Kentucky was history!

Be sure to ask questions when pre-paying for funerals BY T. SCOTT GILLIGAN FROM THE OHIO BAR ASSOCIATION
What is a pre-need funeral contract? Generally, a pre-need funeral contract refers to the purchase of funeral goods and services before they are needed. Nationally, approximately one-third of funerals are arranged and purchased ahead of time. Why would an individual prearrange and pre-pay a funeral? Pre-arrangement allows an individual to talk directly to the funeral director about his or her own funeral preferences. Also, it can relieve surviving family members of financial burdens and from having to make funeral decisions while grieving. Finally, individuals who currently qualify for Medicaid assistance or who anticipate qualifying may pre-pay their funerals without impacting their Medicaid eligibility. Are there disadvantages to prepaying? By pre-paying, you are tying up your funds. Additionally, if you cancel the pre-paid contract, you may not receive all of the funds back from the funeral home. What does the funeral home do with my pre-payment? The funeral home will use the pre-paid money either to buy an insurance policy on the contract beneficiary’s life or place the funds in trust. In the case of an insurance policy, the pre-paid funds are used to purchase a single-pay policy that has a built-in growth factor. When the contract beneficiary dies, the insurance policy proceeds are paid to the funeral home to cover the cost of the beneficiary’s funeral. If the pre-paid funds are placed in a trust, Ohio law requires that 100 percent of pre-need funds be placed into the trust together with all interest generated by the trust funds. The funeral home may not access those trust funds until the contract beneficiary dies and the funeral services are performed. Under Ohio law, the financial institution may not pay the funds to the funeral home until it receives a death certificate and proof that the funeral services have been provided.

I’m considering pre-paying my funeral expenses. Can I receive a refund if I change my mind after I’ve signed a contract? Pre-need contracts may either be revocable (can be canceled) or irrevocable (cannot be canceled). For the first seven days after the contract is signed, however, the consumer may revoke any pre-need contract – even an irrevocable one. During the first seven days, the consumer is entitled to a full refund. After this initial cancellation period expires, a consumer can cancel only a “revocable” contract. If the revocable pre-need contract guarantees the price of the funeral, the consumer is entitled to receive back from the funeral home 90 percent of the amount in the trust. If the pre-need contract does not guarantee a price, the consumer will get back 100 percent of all principal and interest when he or she cancels the contract. While a consumer cannot obtain a refund on an irrevocable contract, the consumer may direct that the funding be transferred to another funeral home. Why would a pre-need contract be made irrevocable? Primarily for Medicaid purposes. An individual can have only minimal resources in order to qualify for Medicaid benefits. An irrevocable pre-paid funeral contract does not count as a resource, and therefore does not dis-
qualify the individual from receiving Medicaid assistance. What are guaranteed price contracts and non-guaranteed price contracts? A guaranteed price contract means that the funeral home guarantees to provide you with the funeral goods and services you selected for the amount of money stated in the contract. This
will be responsible for the difference. What questions should I ask when pre-paying for a funeral? Look over the pre-need contract carefully ask the funeral director the following questions: Where will the pre-need funds be deposited until they are needed? Will I receive verification from the financial institution that the prepaid funds have been
FOR THE FIRST SEVEN DAYS AFTER THE CONTRACT IS SIGNED, THE CONSUMER MAY REVOKE ANY PRE-NEED CONTRACT – EVEN AN IRREVOCABLE ONE. means that you or your estate will not be required to pay any additional cost for the guaranteed items. If the contract does not guarantee the prices charged, the price of the funeral will be determined at the time the services and merchandise are provided. Any amount you pre-pay will be considered as a deposit to be applied toward the purchase price. However, if the original money paid on the contract plus the interest earned on those funds are not sufficient to cover the price of the funeral goods and services, you or your estate
deposited in the trust account? If the funds are used to purchase an insurance policy, will I receive verification that the policy has been purchased? What items in the contract, if any, are covered by a price guarantee? Is the pre-need contract irrevocable or revocable? If the contract is revocable, how can I cancel the contract?

Blogging allows creative expression, but know your rights, responsibilities BY DAN TREVAS FROM THE OHIO BAR ASSOCIATION
A
mericans are now spending a quarter of their time sharing information and comments online through social networks and blogs, a 43 percent increase since June 2009, according to the Neilson Company. Blogs and other sites that allow users to generate content and interact by posting comments, articles, images, links, videos, and more, are growing in popularity and so are the lawsuits surrounding many of the controversial issues of their use. If I write my own blog, am I protected by the First Amendment and free to say anything I want? In a landmark 1972 U.S. Supreme
TRENDS IN THE
MARKETPLACE Court decision Justice Byron White explained that the freedom of the press is a “fundamental personal right” not confined to traditional media like newspapers and magazines. For most of our history, lawsuits regarding freedom of the press mostly centered on news outlets that profit from selling their coverage and commentary about others. Now that a studio or printing press is no longer needed to reach mass audiences, bloggers whose postings generate controversy find themselves as potential targets of lawsuits. As a blogger you can choose
to let the readers know your identity or you can remain anonymous. Supreme Court rulings have equally protected the rights of both known and anonymous authors. Recent defamation lawsuits brought by individuals and businesses have had varying degrees of success in forcing Internet service providers to provide the true identity of an anonymous blogger. Nevertheless, as a blogger, you should remember that the protection of your speech has limits. Just as the law does not protect a person who yells “fire” in a crowded theater when there is none, your right to free speech is not absolute. What is defamation? “Defamation” is damaging someone’s reputation by making a public,
intentionally false statement and presenting it as a fact, either through speech or the written word. . In general, a private citizen claiming defamation must prove your comments were false and that you acted negligently in failing to discover the truth. A public figure claiming defamation must prove “actual malice,” meaning that you published the comment even though you knew it was false, or you showed reckless disregard for the truth. What is invasion of privacy? Invasion of privacy generally means you’ve intruded into someone’s private secluded area or private affairs and published information without SEE BLOGGING, PAGE 13
LEGAL MATTERS Citizens can take action on polluters BY DAVID G. COX FROM THE OHIO BAR ASSOCIATION
T
here is a manufacturing facility close to my home that is polluting the air I breathe. Is there anything I can do about it? Yes. Both the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act provide that private citizens can sue polluters if the government does not take action against the polluters. These suits are known as “citizen suits.” What must I do to sue a polluter? To begin, you must first provide notice to the U.S. EPA, the Ohio EPA (if you live in Ohio), and to the polluter. Your notice must identify the facility you believe has violated the law, and which violations of law you believe the polluter has committed. You also must state what type of relief you expect to receive. What happens after I notify everybody? Once the citizen suit notice provision is triggered, you must wait at least 60 days before taking any kind of enforcement action. This is to allow the appropriate federal and state authorities the time to decide if they want to bring an enforcement action. If they decide to take enforcement action, then you cannot sue under the citizen suit provisions. If they do not take action, then you can proceed with your citizen suit. Can a citizen expect to get a polluter to comply with the law? Yes. A citizen who brings an action under either the Clean Air or Clean Water Acts is entitled to an injunction (a court order) to get the polluter to comply with the law. For example, if the polluter is operating without having the required permit, it will be required to get one. If the facility is not already minimizing or reducing its pollution, it must take action to do so under an injunction. In addition, the polluter may be required to pay a civil penalty to the government. Finally, a citizen who wins a suit against a polluter is entitled to get his or her attorney fees paid by the polluter. Assuming I’ve given the 60-day notice and the government does not bring action itself, what must I do next? You must draft a complaint and file it in an appropriate United States District Court. Once you have filed the complaint and it has been served on the polluter, the polluter then has 20 days to file an answer to the complaint. How does such a case get resolved? Usually, citizen suit cases are resolved by what is known as a Consent Decree. This means that the parties settle the suit along terms that are acceptable to both parties. Consent Decrees usually indicate how much money needs to be paid to the government for the pollution, when permit applications must be submitted and issued, what the timetable is for when the pollution must be minimized or eliminated, and how much the polluter needs to pay in attorney fees.

BLOGGING, FROM PAGE 12 his or her consent. Additionally, invasion of privacy claims arise when you publish personal details that have not been disclosed to the public, such as a person’s sexual orientation or a private romantic encounter. What are copyright and trademark infringement? Copyright infringement occurs when you post someone else’s creative work, like a photo or a song, without his or her permission. However, in some cases you may post someone else’s work, including educational lessons or research with the work. This is called a “fair use� of the material. Trademark infringement is similar, in that you can use someone else’s business logo or material when commenting about it, but generally may not use it for commercial purposes that would confuse consumers by leading them to believe that you are affiliated with a company or product that is not yours. If I accept posts from another person, might I be liable for a defamatory statement made by someone else just because it’s on my blog? Probably not. Bloggers, media sites, Internet service providers and others who host forums online have immunity from defamation claims regarding statements made by someone else and posted on a blog or website. This immunity is provided by Section 230 of the federal Communications Decency Act, which protects any “user� of an interactive computer service who did not create the defamatory statement. However, this immunity is not guaranteed. If you are actively gathering information on your own and publishing it on your blog, or if you edit someone else’s post and knowingly change his or her statement, then Section 230 may not shield you. The federal law likely will protect you if you are passing on information provided by others that you have not altered. Can my employer control my blogging at work? With the rapid rise of social networking and blogging, many employers are allowing and even encouraging their employees to blog. However, employers are also taking steps to limit employee activities to protect the business interest. Employers would be wise to share policies concerning blogging and social network conduct with their employees. Employers should be aware, however, that some employee communications are protected by law, and should therefore be careful about attempting to discipline an employee for work-related comments made on an employee’s personal blog. Communications that are protected include those that have to do with protected activities such as whistleblowing or conducting union activities, and communications about a protected status (such as discrimination by gender or race). This “Law You Can Use� column was provided by the Ohio State Bar Association. It was prepared by Dan Trevas, a Columbus attorney and former news reporter for print and online news services.

Clues to alcohol abuse References to excessive drinking on social-networking sites often indicate problems FROM THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH
C
ollege students who post references to getting drunk, blacking out, or other aspects of dangerous drinking on social networking sites are more likely to have clinically significant alcohol problems than students who do not post such references, according to a study supported by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), part of the National Institutes of Health. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the University of Washington, Seattle, examined public Facebook profiles of more than 300 undergraduate students at those universities. The researchers divided the profiles into three categories: those that had no alcohol references; those that had alcohol references but no references to intoxication or problem drinking; and those that included references to “being drunk,” “getting wasted,” or other problem drinking behaviors. They also invited the profile owners to complete an online version of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, or AUDIT, a screening tool that clinicians use to measure problem drinking. “We found that underage college stu-
STUDENTS WHO POST REFERENCES TO GETTING DRUNK, BLACKING OUT, OR OTHER ASPECTS OF DANGEROUS DRINKING ARE MORE LIKELY TO HAVE ALCOHOL PROBLEMS. dents who referenced dangerous drinking habits, such as intoxication or blacking out, were more likely to have AUDIT scores that indicate problem drinking or alcohol-related injury,” says first author Megan A. Moreno, M.D., assistant professor of adolescent medicine at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health. An AUDIT score of 8 or higher indicates an individual is at risk for problem drinking. The three groups in the study had average AUDIT scores of 4.7, 6.7, and 9.5, respectively. Moreno and her colleagues note that, because many students do not seek routine or preventive health care at student health centers, innovative approaches are needed to identify college students who are at risk for problem drinking. “Underage college students and adolescents frequently display references to alcohol on Facebook,” says Moreno. “Our
study suggests that parents and college health care providers who note references to problem drinking on the Facebook profiles of adolescents should consider discussing drinking habits with their children and patients.” “This interesting finding indicates that social networking sites may be a useful tool in the ongoing search for ways to identify and intervene with college students who are at risk for alcohol use problems,” adds NIAAA Acting Director Kenneth R. Warren, Ph.D. A report of the findings appears online in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine. The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, part of the NIH, also provided support for the study. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, part of the National Institutes of Health, is the primary U.S. agency for conducting and supporting research on the causes, consequences, prevention, and treatment of alcohol abuse, alcoholism, and alcohol problems. NIAAA also disseminates research findings to general, professional, and academic audiences. Additional alcohol research information and publications are available at www.niaaa.nih.gov.
eing physically active is vital to maintaining health and independence as we age, and a new federal campaign for people 50 and older will help them to get active and keep going. Introduced in October by the National Institutes of Health, the Go4Life campaign encourages sedentary older adults to reap health benefits by making physical activity part of their daily lives. Only 25 percent of people aged 65-74 say they engage in regular physical activity. Go4Life was presented on Oct. 19, at a briefing on exercise and aging on Capitol Hill, hosted by Herb Kohl, D-Wis., chairman of the Senate Special Committee on Aging and by Mark Udall, D-Colo., Senate Special Committee on Aging. The briefing highlighted the public-private partnership central to the campaign – a Go4Life team that will work to bring the campaign into communities across the United States. The team includes NIH, other agencies in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and national organizations, corporations, insurers, health care providers, and nonprofit organizations. Go4Life’s participating organizations will incorporate campaign resources into their own health and wellness activities, disseminating Go4Life web links and materials to their members, employees, and customers. Many partners will directly sponsor events or community activities aimed at engaging older adults in exercise and physical activity as the campaign moves forward. The campaign was conceived, and is being led, by the National Institute on Aging, the component of NIH devoted to research on aging. The NIA will work with the Go4Life community on events and will highlight participating organizations and their activities on the campaign Web site. The campaign developed from concerns that, despite proven health benefits, exercise and physical activity rates among older people are low. About 30 percent of people aged 45-64 say they engage in regular leisure-time physical activity. Only a quarter of those ages 65-74 say they do. And while experts say people age 85 and older, can benefit from exercise, only 11 percent of that age group report being active. At the same time, NIA noted, some older adults were contacting the Institute for guidance on kinds of exercises to do, indicating interest in becoming more active. The research-based resources of Go4Life center on an interactive Web site (www. nia.nih.gov/Go4Life) providing information and motivation for exercise for individuals, families and friends, organizations, and health care professionals.

Set goals to help avoid diabetes, complications
I
n observance of National Diabetes Month and World Diabetes Day on Nov. 14, the National Institutes of Health urges people to set goals and make plans to prevent diabetes and diabetes-related complications. In support of this effort, the National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP), an initiative of the NIH and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is providing tools and resources to help people find ways to deal with the stress that can prevent people from achieving their health goals – whether they have diabetes or are at risk for it. In his proclamation (http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2011/11/01/ presidential-proclamation-national-diabetes-month-2011) recognizing National Diabetes Month, President Obama acknowledges the progress made in addressing the many challenges posed by diabetes, but cautions that despite these advances, the illness continues to rob thousands of Americans of health and life every year. Nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes, and more than one-quarter of them do not know it. Left untreated, diabetes can lead to serious complications, such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness and amputation. An estimated 79 million adults have pre-diabetes, a condition that places them at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Making lifestyle changes – whether to manage or prevent diabetes – is not easy. Even if you know what to do to improve your health, figuring out how to do it and fitting it into your daily routine can be a big challenge. Making changes in how you care for your health is a matter of trying and learning. For example, people know that being physically active can help them lose weight. But do they know how to become more active and keep it up over time? The NDEP offers the following tips for making a plan and taking small, but important steps to help you reach your goal: ◆ Think about what is important to you and your health. ◆ What changes are you willing and able to make? ◆ Decide what steps will help you reach your health goals. ◆ Choose one goal to work on first. Start this week. Pick one change you can start to make immediately. ◆ Don't give up. It's common to run into some problems along the way. If things don't go as planned, think about other ways to reach your goal. The NDEP provides videos, tips sheets, and other educational materials to help people make a plan to prevent type 2 diabetes and diabetes related complications. The NDEP's online library of behaviorchange resources, Diabetes HealthSense, can be found at www.YourDiabetesInfo. org/HealthSense.

Springfield Grille’s monthly dinner taste featured a collection of holiday and seasonal beers that were just fantastic. I can highly recommend these beers for your upcoming holiday gettogethers. Springfield Grille prepared a harveststyle menu for its annual beer taste that complemented the beer selections. An apple puff pastry filled with Jarlsberg and Brie was paired to Breckenridge Brewery’s Agave Wheat Ale. Crisp and refreshing, this seasonal ale was a perfect balance to the rich cheesy apple dumpling. Another brew sampled during this course was the Two Brothers Brewing’s Domaine Dupage French-style country ale. Deep amber in color and a little more full-bodied than the Agave Wheat Ale, it also worked very nicely with the apple dumpling. Kobe beef sliders (small sandwiches) on garlic crostini were the next offering, accompanied by a seasonal Dogfish Pumpkinhead Brown Ale. The Pumpkinhead is seasoned with brown sugar, allspice, cinnamon, and nutmeg, producing a rich profile of flavors that was delicious with the tasty sliders. Our first main course offering was roasted chicken jambalaya. This spicy dish had me thinking of my trips to Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. A crisp and hoppy Anderson Valley IPA from Mendocino, Calif. was poured to go with the savory jambalaya. Homemade beef brisket with caramelized onion bread pudding was paired to Breckenridge Brewery’s Oatmeal Stout. Roasted coffee and dark chocolate flavors just oozed from every sip of this full-bodied brew. This was a classic food and beverage combination that everyone should have the chance to enjoy. For dessert, we were poured a sample of Breckenridge Brewery’s Vanilla Porter (brewed with real vanilla beans) to go with the Grille’s Irish Tiramisu. Roasted nuts and dark chocolate flavors followed by a bold finish paired nicely to the rich tiramisu. Early last month, Wine and Dine Ohio returned to Station Square Ristorante in Liberty with a bevy of exciting wines from around the world to sample with Chef Ottavio’s delicious menu offerings. Our first wine was the 2009 Walnut Block Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand. Crisp herb and lime flavors were a fine match for the recommended boiled baconwrapped shrimp. Jed Steele’s 2009 Chardonnay from California was chosen to go with the chicken carbonara. Bright and creamy citrus flavors followed by a long finish tinged with vanilla proved to be a nice balance for the rich parmesan cream sauce served with the sautéed chicken. Station Square’s homestyle Roma lasagna was the suggested pairing for Argentina’s 2009 Altosur Malbec. Intense berry and cherry fruit flavors followed by a silky satisfying finish made each bite of the lasagna a real treat for those who ordered it. California’s Russian River Valley was the source of our next wine. Hook and Ladders’ 2008 Tillerman Blend is a tasty cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon (51 percent), Cabernet Franc (24 percent) and Merlot (15 percent). Fruit from this AVA (region) is cool climate in style, exhibiting bright raspberry and black cherry flavors. This aromatic red worked very well with a number of dishes from the Station’s busy grill.

Patrick McNamara of Cavalier Distributing provided the beer selections for the Springfield Grille tasting. Our final wine was the 2008 Shannon Ridge Barbera from Lake County, Calif. Silky smooth dark fruit flavors and a rich clean finish made every dish from Ottavio’s grill a real treat. This newworld Barbera compares nicely to many from Italy’s finest estates. On Sept. 25, I was invited to attend the Savor the Flavor wine and food event at Southern Park Mall benefiting Hospice of the Valley. With eight wine distributors and numerous restaurants in attendance, there was a number of fine wine and food choices available for the attendees to sample. If you haven’t been to Bella’s To Go carryout restaurant across from the Shops at Boardman Park, give them a try when you want a good meal but don’t feel like preparing dinner or going to a restaurant. They have an extensive menu to
choose from, and the food is excellent. While at their booth, I tried their chicken piccata drizzled with a white caper sauce. My wine choice for this entrée was Wente’s 2008 River Bank Riesling from Arroyo Seco in Monterey County, Calif. The crisp apple-tinged flavors were just the answer to the fork-tender chicken. If you’re looking for a California Merlot at under $20 a bottle, give Rotta Winery’s 2006 Merlot from Paso Robles a try. Rich and full-bodied with a velvety smooth finish, it was wonderful with Bella’s barbecued beef brisket. Bella’s dinners range from $7.95 to $14.99 and are a great way to have a restaurant-quality meal at home with a bottle of wine from your own cellar. October provided a number of fine store tastings for inquisitive wine drinkers. Michael Charles Premier Wines on Elm Road held a special tasting
Let us know about your event! If you have a wine event you would like listed in this column, please send your information to thewineguy@metromonthly.net.
Oct. 5. My first pick was the 2009 Chateau des Karantes Rouge ($15.99) from the Languedoc region of France. The Karantes is a tasty blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre providing a ripe robust red wine suitable for wintertime roasts and stews. My next pick is a fine choice for holiday entertaining. Portugal’s Portal Tawny Port ($18.99) is just yummy with an after-dinner coffee or dessert. Early last month, I visited Wine Styles of Howland, and they were pouring some very interesting wines. My first pick was a delicious Tempranillo from the Castilla region of Spain. The Rojo Vivo ($10.99) is bright ruby red in color and just oozes refreshing cherry fruit flavors. This is a great red choice for your favorite paella and chorizo recipe. Good Pinot Noir is hard to find under $20 a bottle. At $17.99, the 2008 Contrada Pinot Noir from Sonoma County is a real treat. Elegant with bright strawberry and spice flavors, try this Pinot with lamb and roasted potatoes. Vintage Estate Wine and Beer in Boardman introduced a handful of new wines to this area at their third Saturday tasting. If you’re looking for a citrusy, fruit-forward Chardonnay with just a smidgen of oak, the 2010 Dreaming Tree ($15.99) from the Central Coast might be a good pick for you. Citrus and baked pear flavors followed by a vanilla spice-tinged finish will have you asking for another glass. The 2009 Dreaming Tree Crush ($15.99) is an interesting blend of two-thirds Merlot and one-third Zinfandel from California’s north coast vineyards. Jammy plum and raspberry flavors followed by a smoky herb-tinged finish should be a fine match for spicy Cajun food. Once again, Charlie’s Premier Wines in Howland presented a host of great wines for his Saturday wine taste. If you’re looking for a fine holiday gift that will be well received, pick up a bottle of the 2008 Mayacamus Mt. Veeder Chardonnay ($39.99). This luscious Chardonnay is comparable to a white Burgundy at one-third the cost. Textured citrus flavors and a super-long supple finish is this wine’s calling card. My next pick is a real steal at $9.99 (formerly $19.99). The 2009 Vigilance Cabernet Sauvignon from the Red Hills area of Lake County, Calif. is simply delicious. Classic Cabernet fruit flavors with a smooth clean finish will make you think you are sampling a wine at more than twice its asking price. Upcoming events include Nov. 5, Angels for Animals benefit wine and food event at the Canfield facility. Wine and Dine Ohio will have an event at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 10 at Rachel’s Westchester restaurant in Austintown, featuring the wines of Youngstown’s Tri-County Distributors. To make a reservation or get on our email list for Wine and Dine Ohio event information, call 330-651-8676, or email jmwineguy@gmail.com to provide your contact information. The Upstairs Restaurant will hold their renowned annual holiday tasting on Thursday, Nov. 17 – call the restaurant for more details. The Springfield Grille in Boardman will hold its monthly wine taste – call the restaurant for more details. I look forward to seeing you at upcoming tastings around the Valley.

Peyko and the writers of the Metro Monthly create a portrait of their city through a beautifully rendered collection of vignettes.
