“It matters not how strait the gate. How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.” Melissa Coduti likes to recite those lines, the last paragraph in the poem Invictus, by William Ernest Henley. Coduti, a 2000 Northwood graduate, is 32 years old now and lives in the Chicago suburb of Springfield, Ill. She joined the United States Air Force in June 2002 – her brothers Jacob Falk, 31, and Louis Coduti, 33, are also Air Force veterans - and she knew then that she wanted to be a military “lifer.” Life, however, sometimes has its own way of mixing things up, turning you upside down and altering your planned future. It happened to the then 5-foot, 115-pound Coduti in August 2002, during hand-to-hand combat training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. Two days earlier, Coduti said, she “accidentally” knocked a fellow female unconscious. “I hip-tossed her and she smacked face first on the ground,” Coduti recalled. “She spent a night in the hospital. They put us together (during training) two days later, and the rest is history.” Coduti and the same woman, whom Coduti did not name, were paired together again during a training exercise, the day after the woman was released from an overnight stay in the hospital. “I was handcuffed face first on the ground, and the female who was doing the training took my left cuff off and shoved my right wrist to the back of my head,” Coduti said. “We were learning search and seizure, and she was pretty upset with me because I accidentally knocked her unconscious.” Coduti’s injury was devastating, and it did, in fact, alter her life. She was diagnosed with bilateral thoracic outlet syndrome, a
condition whereby symptoms are produced that include numbness in the fingers and shoulder and neck pain by compression of nerves and/or blood vessels in the upper chest. “It causes paralysis of the arms, numbness and tingling in the arms,” Coduti said. “You get headaches…I get all three symptoms at the same time. My arms flush navy blue and are no longer useable. I’ve had 11 surgeries since 2002. I was in physical therapy from August 2002 through the end of 2013. There was hardly a time I wasn’t in therapy. I can use both arms now, but I have limited mobility.” Takes its toll Coduti is a relatively fit 138 pounds today, but the injury and surgeries took their toll. She has been married and divorced twice and no longer has the physical capability to have children. There is more. “I was medically retired (from the Air Force) in 2006,” Coduti said. “I was in security forces, and after a failed surgery I was cross-trained into health services management and worked as a primary response technician. We would respond to mass casualties, (helicopter) crashes, anything that had mass casualties. I was attached to the Continued on page 2

Budget is proposed for senior levy funds By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com A senior advisory committee has recommended a budget for Oregon senior services that will be funded by revenue from a new 0.5-mill senior levy passed by residents last November. Voters approved the five year levy to expand senior services. The city will collect $210,000 each year in revenue from the levy. Members of the committee have been meeting every couple of weeks since April to discuss the best options for distributing the levy funds. The city has already collected $98,000 in senior levy revenue this year. “We came up with a group of services we can live with, but we want to get pub-
lic input,” said Councilman Terry Reeves, who also chairs the Parks & Recreation Committee and is a member of the senior advisory committee. City Administrator Mike Beazley, who is also a member of the senior advisory committee, said the goal of the committee is to “help ensure that there are services available so that Oregon seniors can maintain or improve their quality of life and make it more likely that they can live comfortably in their own homes as long as possible.” “Helping our senior population age successfully longer in their own homes can improve quality of life and lower costs to our seniors, Oregon families, and the broader community,” he said. The services that can help seniors achieve that success, according to Beazley,
include transportation, homemaker or other in-home services; in-home nursing or health aid services, mobile meals or other common site meal programs; respite for family care providers, socialization or other day recreational activities; health screenings; fitness or health classes to promote general wellness and balance or fall prevention; diabetes control; pain or medication management; and other services to help seniors access the Internet or help with daily life needs. The committee looked at senior services currently being provided in the city, and what services are needed. “There are so many residents of Oregon who really aren’t aware of the services that are available,” said Beazley. Research showed that benefits counseling and help in accessing services were the top needs for
seniors in Oregon. “There are so many folks out there who just aren’t aware of what’s out there. We need to step up and find a way to get them to access services,” said Beazley. Current services Facilities that provide services to seniors in Oregon include the Area Office on Aging, the Eastern Community YMCA, and the James “Wes” Hancock Senior Center, Oregon’s current senior center on Bayshore Road. The Area Office on Aging provides benefits counseling and help accessing services, including Medicare and other health care access or insurance questions; home Continued on page 4

Vet competes for Team USA Continued from front page

Coduti would compete for Team USA in the bench press and 100-meter dash. “It’s a paralympic-style event,” she said of the Games. “The Fisher House Foundation paid for everybody’s trip there and we got an entire nation to rally behind this. It was the most rewarding and meaningful few days of my life.” Meeting VP Biden, Prince Harry Before heading to England, Team USA gathered for a backyard barbeque at the Washington, D.C., home of vice president Joe Biden and his wife, Jill. “It was incredible,” Coduti said. “He is so proud of what we do and what we accomplished. Mrs. Biden, who actually came to England with us, and the First Lady (Michelle Obama) are supportive of Wounded Warriors and making sure that we’re OK.” Coduti and her sister, Alexis, and a friend arrived in London on Sept. 6 and returned to the States on Sept. 15.

flight surgeon and my job was to label patients if they were going to be treated or not be treated.” After leaving the Air Force, Coduti became a HIPAA privacy officer and, in 2009, was eventually recruited into her current position with Scheels Sporting Goods. It is a job she loves. “I’m an assistant store leader, in charge of all of our women’s departments,” Coduti said. “It’s kind of like working for your own business. You’re buying your own products and selling them. I teach people how to do that. I love it.” Coduti’s life took another turn a year ago, when one of her ex-husbands, Len Anderson, “reached” out to her and told her about the Wounded Warrior Program. Anderson, who had also been in the Air Force, lost his left arm from the elbow down after an IED exploded near him in Afghanistan in 2012. “He happened to call me - and I was struggling at that time – on Sept. 4, 2013,” Coduti said. “I hate that day, and that’s the day he called me. That was the day (Sept. 4, 2002) I found out I probably would never be in security forces again, and they weren’t sure they could help with my injury. Every Sept. 4 I’m reminded what ended my career. I never wanted out of the military. “(Anderson) happened to call me that day, and I was at my darkest moment. I felt lost and I didn’t know why. I didn’t have answers. I was confused. He reached out and told me about this (Wounded Warrior) program and one thing led to another.” Last February Coduti went to an adaptive sports camp at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas. Coduti said the camp promotes healing through sports for injured, ill or wounded airmen. Coduti said she joined the Wounded Warrior Program, on Feb. 24, because Anderson conveyed to her how much it made him feel like he was a part of something. Coduti began training for the inaugural Invictus Games, a four-day event that was held in London on Sept. 10-14. More than 400 competitors from 13 nations took part in
won a gold medal in the 100 meters (15.7 seconds) and a silver medal in heavyweight powerlifting, with a 132-pound bench press. “That’s slow for me,” she said of her 100 time. “I had a stress fracture in my right leg. I’ve benched 160 here. I have no lat muscles in my back, and that’s one of the muscles you use in the bench press. I had an amazing coach who got me to the point where I can do a pull-up and a pushup – with no lat muscles. Whatever you believe your expectations are, that is what you can become. That’s what I’ve learned through this program. They believed that I could do it.”
Coduti even got to meet Prince Harry, who served for several years in the military including 77 days in Afghanistan in 200708. “He’s very down to earth, because he’s a military guy himself,” Coduti said. “Once you talk to him, he’s so proud of you and what you’ve done. He didn’t want to talk about himself or his military career. He wanted to talk about if you’re OK and being treated appropriately in London.” Competing in the Invictus Games and, even more importantly, relating to other people who share her same lot in life, was something Coduti will always remember. “You have 400 other athletes saying, ‘Come on, we’re all in the same place and there’s nothing you can’t overcome,’ ” Coduti said. “There’s no greater experience I’ve had since being asked to retire from the military than being with those people. The program works. You stay in it for a year or two until you feel like, you know what, I can do this. It breathes new life back into your lungs.”

Development district open for business By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com After more than five years of discussion, a Joint Economic Development District agreement has been forged by the Village of Elmore and Woodville and Harris townships. With the final hurdle for the formation of the district - approval by the Ohio Development Services Agency – in place, economic development officials in Ottawa and Sandusky counties are ready to promote the district that encompasses about 88 acres of land along State Route 51 and Exit 5A of the Ohio Turnpike The Sugar Creek Economic Development District will be overseen by a board of directors whose membership will include one person representing the village, one person representing the townships, one person representing owners of businesses in the district and one representing employees. Those members will select a chairperson. While there are no businesses located in the district, the representatives of the village and townships will choose a chairperson. The board will have the option of adopting an income tax for the district at a rate that is not to exceed the village’s rate of 1.75 percent. Each of the three entities will equally share in tax revenues. Property tax revenues won’t be affected by the district and the village is agreeing to not annex property in the district as long as the JEDD agreement is in effect, which is for 20 years. Under the agreement, the village will, if petitioned by property owners in the district, provide water and sanitary sewer service to the district but other entities in the future will be allowed to offer services in the event it becomes feasible for another provider to do so. Jamie Beier Grant, director of the Ottawa County Improvement Corporation, said the location makes the property a good match for a variety of businesses. “After compiling a list of clients/ prospects that have shown interest in the property in the past, along with the actual physical location of the property at the turnpike interchange, we feel that the most likely types of businesses and industries that would locate to the site would be light industrial, warehousing/distribution types of businesses,” she said. “There may also be interest for professional office buildings or medical-related end users.” The OCIC and Sandusky County Economic Development Corporation will assist the townships and village with marketing and promoting the property. The property is listed for sale with Signature & Associates for $1.2 million and is zoned M-1, according to the company website. “It’s been a long time coming,” Elmore

The Sugar Economic Development District was formed by Woodville and Harris townships and Village of Elmore Mayor Matt Damschroder said of the JEDD’s formation. He said the village has had informal discussions about how to extend water to the site, including a link to the Ottawa County Regional Water System, but as yet
there is no plan in place. The village is utilizing only about half of the capacity of its own municipal system, the mayor said, but it would be difficult for the system to meet the needs of a major user at the site such as a food processor.
Genoa superintendent retiring By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press Dennis Mock, superintendent of Genoa schools, has announced he is retiring. “Forty-one years in education is long enough,” Mock said with a chuckle.

During Mock’s tenure, the school district has seen its ups and downs financially. But he has also managed to oversee the consolidation of a district once scattered

throughout two townships and a village to one central campus on Genoa-Clay Center Road. The Genoa school board will begin its search for a new superintendent in January. Members will work with the North Point Education Center to find a replacement, Mock said. The hope is to have candidates by spring and have someone in place to work with Mock before he leaves mid-summer. Mock said he will not leave education entirely though. He just doesn’t plan for it to be a full-time job all year long. He says he is exploring taking interim jobs with school districts that are looking for replacement administrators.

Budget is proposed for senior levy funds Continued from front page delivered meals; transportation; in home care, including personal care, such as bathing, dressing and housekeeping, and homemaker services, such as housekeeping and laundry; senior center services; and Chore services. The Wes Hancock senior center is currently used on a regular basis by 150 seniors, with 40-60 served per day. The center provides transportation/escort services; nutrition; support services for bills, insurance, access; health and wellness; fellowship or family respite; and recreation and socialization. The Eastern Community YMCA provides services to 600 seniors, including 27 group exercise classes. Discounted membership through the city provides a “Golden Eagleâ€? cards to use for classes and programs. Currently, there are 59 Golden Eagle card holders in Oregon. The committee proposed the following senior services, based on need, to be funded by the levy revenue: • Expanding portal gateway outreach or social work services - $30,000; • Transportation - $40,000; • Expanding health coaching or exercise programs in areas such as medicine or pain - $30,000; • Chore services - $20,000; • Meal services - $20,000; • Capital - $50,000; • Contingency - $20,000. More seniors According to the United States Census Bureau, there are currently 20,233 residents in Oregon, out of which 3,561 (17.6 percent) are 65 years old and older. The city historically has a higher population of seniors than neighboring communities, and the trend is that the senior population will continue to rise, according to Beazley. Beazley suggested that the city conduct a survey every three years to determine the changing needs of the senior community. “What are seniors looking for, what do they need? It’s not one size fits all,â€? he said.
“Oregon residents aren’t any different from our neighbors.â€? Also under review is whether the city should expand the current senior center, build a new senior center, or lease a building to provide expanded services. Options include: • Rent space with the Alzheimer’s Association at the Challenger Learning Center at Seaman and Wynn; • Expand and upgrade the current senior center on Bayshore Road; • Build an addition or separate facility at the current YMCA property; • Partner with either of the hospitals or YMCA in the new facility; • Build a new facility on the city municipal complex on Seaman Road; • Rent space from another existing Oregon private or public building.
Former Councilwoman Sandy Bihn, who has been involved in senior issues for many years, said she was concerned that the new senior programs being offered in the city will only enhance existing programs that have been available for years. She said she is contacted frequently, on behalf of her mother, by organizations serving the needs of seniors. She was hoping to see more funding go towards a central facility that focuses on socialization of seniors. “I see the part we don’t have here is a larger service center with socialization,� she said. “We do want that,� said Beazley. “We want to do it in more than one place. One of the things we’re going to end up with is a larger center that is better at meeting those socialization needs.�
Mayor Mike Seferian said it is unlikely a new senior center would be built. Officials are leaning toward either expanding the present facility on Bayshore Road, or renting space at the Challenger Learning Center. Programs, he said, would be offered to seniors at various locations, not just at the senior center. Need for levy The committee expects to finalize a budget and service plan by October, according to Beazley. The levy was the subject of controversy last November after it was learned that the Area Office on Aging had offered $250,000 to senior center officials to expand services. Officials rejected the offer, and instead opted to place a local senior levy on the ballot. Bob Marquette, who was campaigning for the new levy, had said the city and the Area Office on Aging had cut funding to the facility. An article that appeared in The Press the day before the election showed Marquette was incorrect. The senior center had in fact not used all the funds allocated by the Area Office on Aging due to a lack of seniors using the programs. The article also showed that the level of funding provided

by the city to the senior center had not been reduced over the years. The city also provides $25,000 to the YMCA for senior programs. Lucas County residents, along with nine other counties in northwest Ohio, have for years paid a tax in support of the Lucas County Senior Services levy, which provides programs for seniors. The agency is seeking a 0.45 mill renewal and a 0.15 additional levy for five years on Nov. 4. The funding that the senior center receives from the Area Office on Aging is just a portion of what the agency spends on senior services in Oregon. For example, in 2012, the agency spent a total of $309,279.12 on Oregon seniors with revenue from the Lucas County Senior Services levy, block grants and Older Americans Act funding.

Oregon moves ahead with geothermal energy
“
By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon council approved a contract with Poggemeyer Design Group, Inc., Bowling Green, for $2.9 million for the design and construction of a geothermal energy improvement project at the municipal complex. “I think it’s time we move forward,� said Administrator Mike Beazley at a council meeting on Monday. “We feel that we’ve looked at this for a long time, and ultimately, it will allow us to maintain this building in a responsible way and lower operation costs long term.� Council last December approved special assessments to fund geothermal energy in the complex on Seaman Road that is expected to reduce energy costs. The project includes a new HVAC system, roofing and other building improvements at the complex. In the last few years, the city has been exploring options for increasing the energy efficiency at the complex. The buildings tend to have significantly higher energy costs than similarly sized facilities because of the age of the HVAC infrastructure and the way the buildings were assembled into one complex over time. The city has worked extensively with the Port Authority’s Better Buildings Program to develop a plan to increase energy efficiency and lower long-term operating

costs. The city in 2012 passed a resolution that helped establish the Toledo and Oregon Advance Energy Corporation in anticipation of the program. Oregon, Toledo and the Port Authority partnered to create an Energy Special Improvement District or Advance Energy Improvement Corporation to govern the district. The Energy Special Improvement District allows the city, school district, or local businesses to invest in energy efficiency and cost lowering improvements while paying for those improvements over a period of years through a special assessment on their property taxes. Geothermal energy uses a deep well boring that goes 300-600 feet into the earth. The “closed loop� system uses the constant temperature of the ground below a certain surface to perform a heat exchange
function. The constant temperature is used for both heating and cooling. Energy from the earth and electricity will eventually replace natural gas bills. Much of the electric load is driven by demand for cooling in the summer. That low profile, according to Beazley, will be flattened out over a 12 month period and will lower electric costs over time as well. The installation of a geothermal system for the complex will take advantage of space for borings in a grassy area in the front of the complex. Geothermal energy is being used to save costs in other buildings across the country. Ohio State University is using it for dorms. The project will include the installation of an 80 ton capacity induction beam distributed ground source heat pump system, building controls, and other miscellaneous energy efficiency measures. The estimated energy savings for the city is 62 percent. In addition to the geothermal system, the city intends to also look at switching to LED lighting and for more energy efficient roofing in the complex. The average annual assessment payment for the city will be approximately $158,000, but the initiative begins paying dividends in lower costs. The funding for the initial investment for these programs comes from the Lucas County Port Authority Bond Fund. Oregon’s obligation will be to make annual payments over the next 15 years through the property tax bill.
Work begins on new Hampton Inn on Navarre Ave. By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Work has begun on a new Hampton Inn near the Sonic Drive-In Restaurant on Navarre Avenue in Oregon. “They have started the project,� Mayor Mike Seferian said last week. The developers sought a buffer variance from the Oregon Planning Commission for the west end of the lot, he said. “There were some residents who were inquiring whether they were going to have to put a fence up at the back of the parcel. It was a concern of theirs,� said Seferian. “They are not required to put up a fence by our zoning code or our buffering code.� Seferian told the residents he would ask developer Steve Roumaya, of Key Hotel and Property Management, about installing a fence. The developers agreed to put up a “very nice fence,� before construction starts, said Seferian. “They thought it would be very beneficial to the neighbors, and they wanted to do
whatever they could to make them happy,� he said. “It should go up fairly soon.� Hampton Inn & Suites held a grand opening on a new 108 room Hampton Inn Hotel in Toledo on Secor Road, site of the former Showcase Cinemas, last month. The hotel in Oregon will have 95 rooms, somewhat smaller than the one on Secor Road. “If anyone has driven past the Hampton Inn on Secor Road, it’s a fairly large structure. It will almost be the exact size of the one here,� said Seferian. “It’s pretty impressive – a four story unit, very attractive, very big building. I think you’ll really notice it on Navarre Avenue.� Administrator Mike Beazley agreed. “It will be an attractive addition to Oregon’s commercial strip and corridor. It will fill in the need for more hotels in our area, so we feel good about it,� said Beazley. Oregon Clean Energy He also gave an update on Oregon Clean Energy, the city’s largest industrial project. William Martin and Bill Siderewicz,
managing partners of Oregon Clean Energy LLC, have been in town regularly to meet with city officials, said Beazley. “We feel good about where we are in the project and where we’re headed,� he said. The Oregon Clean Energy project consists of the construction of an 800 megawatt energy generation facility on a 30 acre parcel of land at 816 North Lallendorf Road, located within an enterprise zone. The facility will convert clean natural gas to electricity. There will be enough new electricity for 500,000 homes. The $800 million project is expected to create about 450 construction jobs over three years, and 26 new full-time, permanent jobs once the facility begins operations, with a total annual payroll of about $3.2 million. Plans call for the plant to begin operations in 2017. “We’re also spending time on some of the land in that area for projects that could match up well with it. We’re seeking some development opportunities along those lines as well,� said Beazley.

Deer-archery season opens Sept. 27th Hunters will have their first opportunity to pursue Ohio’s top big-game animal, the white-tailed deer, when archery season opens Saturday, Sept. 27, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). Ohio’s 2014-2015 deer seasons: • Archery: Sept. 27-Feb. 1, 2015. • Antlerless muzzleloader: Oct. 11-12. • Youth gun: Nov. 22-23. • Gun: Dec. 1-7. • Muzzleloader: Jan. 2-5, 2015. All deer hunters are required to have a valid Ohio hunting license and a valid deer permit. Details about deer hunting rules are contained in the 2014-2015 Ohio Hunting Regulations, available where licenses are sold, or at wildohio.gov. Antlerless permit use was changed for the upcoming deer hunting seasons; the permits are no longer valid in some counties. Antlerless permits will be valid in the remaining counties until Nov. 30, the Sunday before the deer-gun season. Only
St. John’s Drive Thru
one antlerless permit may be used per county, regardless of the bag limit. Deer bag limits are determined by county, but no more than nine deer may be taken from all counties combined. The statewide bag limit is nine deer, but a hunter cannot exceed a county bag limit. Additional ODNR Division of Wildlife authorized controlled hunting opportunities do not count against statewide or county bag limits. Hunters may harvest only one buck in Ohio, regardless of method of take or location. Ohio is again offering an antlerless deer muzzleloader hunting season Oct. 1112. It is legal to bowhunt during this weekend, but no bucks may be killed regardless of hunting implement during these two days. Shotguns and straight-walled cartridge rifles may have no more than three shells in the magazine and chamber combined while deer hunting. For more details, visit ohiodnr.gov.

Village council is calling for a full account of all its contributions to the annual Oak Harbor Apple Festival. The event, which takes place the second weekend of October each year, is the single major event for the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce that attracts more than 25,000 people. Fest highlights include a royalty contest, grand parade, classic car show, a 5K run, kiddie tractor pull and entertainment. The fest celebrates its 36th year Oct. 11-12. Chamber Executive Director Val Winterfield attended an early September village council meeting to receive her annual assurances that council members are on board with the regular closing of portions of streets (including the major thoroughfares of Water and Church streets) for the fest activities. No problem, they said. Then, the subject of the Apple Festival stirred again in mid-September amid council debate on downtown revitalization issues. Councilman Jim Seaman noted that the village is a Gold Medal contributor to the chamber. That is, it donates $5,000 annually to the chamber to help it pursue its goals. But he and others said they would like to review the copy of the Apple Festival contract between the chamber and village. The contract is renewed annually by the village administrator but officials weren’t sure how long the contract had been in place and the last time it was revised. Seaman also asked about the vendor permit costs. Prices are determined by a number of circumstances, including whether a vendor is a business or a non-profit, space size as well as whether electrical and water hookups are needed. None of the money, however, goes to the village, Administrator Randy Genzman said, adding it goes to the chamber. Chamber staff, its members and a host of volunteers put in many hours to pull off the event. However, services such as the water and power along with extra police protection, street crews and some trash services fall on the shoulders of the village, Genzman said. “We also do things for the Independence Day celebration but it’s nothing like the Apple Festival,” the administrator added. Council members asked Genzman, who started in the job in spring, to sort through his office paperwork along with other departments to find if previous reports exist on the village costs associated with supporting the fest. They also asked him to keep a detailed accounting of this year’s costs to present to council.

A windy day at the Genoa Street Fair By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press news@presspublications.com Gusty winds put Genoa Street Fair vendors on alert Saturday. “We had to take our tent down,” Graymont Dolmite employee Tina Brough chuckled. “Now we’re just trying to hold down the merchandise.” Her co-workers kept vigil at the table along the Main Street business district with hands covering piles of giveaways for the community, including sunglasses, fly swatters, Frisbees, pens, pocket savers and environmentally-safe, reusable grocery bags. Blue skies and dry weather prevailed most of the day but breezes of 10 to 15 mph preceded a series of severe thunderstorms that raged across Northwest Ohio and Michigan at nightfall – after most of the fair events had wrapped up, including the classic car show. But throughout much of the day, businesses mixed with churches and non-profit organizations to bring fair-goers a vast selection of food, drinks, free goodies and lots of merchandise for purchase. Tasty treats available included kettle corn, brats and tables chocked with baked goods. Fair goers could even watch ice sculptures in the making at one booth. Nearby, James Taylor of Taylor’s Tae Kwon Do had taken proactive action against the wind. He earlier placed his tent posts in 5-gallon buckets loaded with ice. By mid-day, the 77-degree heat reduced the ice to water – still heavy enough though to keep the tent stationary. Under the shelter of the tent, Taylor offered children a chance to pummel a handheld dummy with punches and sidekicks. They could also guess the number of buckeyes in a plastic jar to compete for a prize. Jamie Wirich and Brock Matthews tied as winners in the guessing game. Vata Alliman, of Clay Center, struck the dummy with a series of jabs and punches. She has been taking Tae Kwon Do classes at the Woodville business for about a month and half. Taylor’s also offers dance and tumbling classes. “She used to take dance there,” explained her mother, Denise Alliman. “But

And I said ‘Why not.’ “ Dominick Seimet, 6, didn’t have any problems with the winds at the Packer Creek Pottery display. He crafted his clay
sculpture with ease, competing with his twin sister, Serenity, at his side. Pottery shop employee Bethany DeLuca sat at a pottery wheel next door. A few of her creations – a turtle and a fish – rested on the children’s table for viewing. The Friends of the Library pitched raffle tickets to the crowd. Across the way, members of the Tiki Warriors Relay for Life set up a mini duck pond game for 50 cents a chance. The group, once affiliated with Oregon’s Relay for Life, now hoists its flags at the Relay for Life of Ottawa County annually. Members are considered a $5,000 team – that is they reached that fundraising goal and have maintained the same level for years, team member Tami Coppes of Genoa explained. “We’ve raised over $40,000 for the cause in eight years,” her sister Kim Coppes added. “We enjoy doing it.

Northwestern District issues another water advisory By Press Staff writer news@presspublications.com Once again the Northwestern Water and Sewer District has issued a water advisory for consumers in the eastern portion of the City of Northwood and in Lake Township, including the Village of Millbury. Notices were sent Sept. 17 to users along waterline 200, advising them of excessive levels of trihalomethanes. Similar notices were sent to users in July. “Our water system recently violated the maximum contaminant level for TTHM,” the latest notices state. “The average level of TTHM over the last four quarters was 0.088 mg/L (milligrams per liter). The allowable standard for TTHM is 0.080 mg/L.” In July, a running average of the previous four quarters of the TTHM count was

0.094 mg/L. Unless consumers have a specific health concern, they aren’t required to use an alternative water supply such as bottled water, according to the notices. The district buys bulk water from the cities of Oregon and Toledo. The waterline in question is linked to the Oregon system and is one of five connections to the city’s distribution system. In July, Simon Gundy, assistant superintendent of the district, said sampling during the third quarter of 2013, when Lake Erie experienced severe algal blooms, strained the treatment process and increased the TTHM count. He said Environmental Protection Agency regulations require the count to be included in the calculation for the average count for two more quarterly sampling periods. According to the federal EPA website, trihalomethanes are a group of four chemicals formed along with disinfection
byproducts when chlorine or other disinfectants used to control microbial contaminants in drinking water react with organic or inorganic matter in water. The trihalomethanes are chloroform, bromodichloromethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform. “Disinfectants, like chlorine, are used to kill harmful bacteria, viruses and microorganisms in your water,” the notices state. “When chemical disinfectants react with organic material present in source water new compounds known as disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are formed. TTHM (trihalomethanes) are one such DBP. The levels detected do not pose an immediate risk to your health. However, some people who drink water containing TTHM in excess of the maximum contaminant level over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidneys or central nervous systems, and may have in increased risk of getting cancer.”

It is almost always more enjoyable to do something that we do well rather than something at which we fail miserably. Whether playing a sport or a musical instrument, the better we get at it, the more pleasure we usually derive from the activity. But this doesn't mean that we have to be virtuosos. Not everyone can play the cello like Yoyo Ma or play tennis like Venus Williams. The good news is that it doesn't really matter how well we play. What gives most of us satisfaction is that we are getting better. When we start to learn something new, the learning curve is steep, and so we see rapid improvement, which generates a lot of satisfaction. After a while however,
Oregon
eek: The Joy of Virtuosity we inevitably hit a plateau, where it requires considerably more effort to improve. These plateaus are the tough spots where we have to persevere and redouble our efforts. We will be rewarded, but it takes time and effort. Therefore, we should remember the old adage: that if it's worth doing; it's worth doing right. And, since many activities take years to perfect, it may be best to also tell ourselves that if it's worth doing, it's worth doing poorly when we're just starting out. We should just do it with the aim of getting better at it! In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to want. - R.S.V. Proverbs 14:23

A happy ending To the editor: On Sunday evening, Sept. 14, my neighbor girl Megan was able to coax to her, a good-natured dachshund who was lost but very determined to be on its way somewhere, perhaps trying to find his way home. Luckily, he had a collar on with rabies tags and Wood County dog license attached, but there was no owners’ tag with phone number. While I held him, Megan went into her house to get her own dog’s leash and, with the permission of her parents, we walked blocks to try to find his owners. After an hour, it was getting dark and Megan had to do her homework. As we proceeded back down our street, we spoke with another neighbor, Amy, who offered to keep him overnight. I have no dog food, and having two dogs of her own with plenty of dog food, Amy was happy to help. The plan was to, in the morning, take him to East Suburban Animal Hospital, which was listed on the rabies tag. We figured they certainly would have record of the owner. It was not until Wednesday night that I was able to connect with Amy to see what happened. I was pleased to learn from her that she was able to locate the little dog’s owner. She was resourceful enough to think about doing a tag search on Wood County’s website. Not being tech savvy, the thought never occurred to me. Sure enough, after entering the license number, an owner’s phone number popped up. Amy called the owner, who promptly came to pick up her dog. That precious pooch had traveled a couple miles on those short, little legs. Amy said she felt lucky to experience

the joy in watching the two reunite. The dog was clearly happy and relieved to see its owner again. Also, it was very nice of the owner to insist on leaving a reward for Megan. I am writing to inform everyone about the county’s website, www.co.wood.oh.us/ auditor. It is a helpful resource for finding the owner if one finds a lost dog. Click on “Dog License,” then go to license search, and enter the license number. No names come up, but a phone number will. Imagine that. Technology....it’s a wonderful thing. Margaret Pena Millbury
Fund research To the editor: Get the facts about the Susan G. Komen cancer organization. Nancy Brinker, Komen’s sister and the organization’s founder, received an annual salary of $548,380 and a bonus of about $125,000 in 2012, according to the Nonprofit Times. In the wake of publicity about the organization’s finances, she stepped down as chief executive officer but remained on the board of directors with a salary of about $390,000. Donors should question how much of their money goes to research, especially for stage four breast cancer. After the salaries and administrative costs, the rest goes where? It’s time to focus more on research. That is why I recommend donating to these
organizations: Breast Cancer Research Fund, National Breast Cancer Coalition, Stand Up to Cancer and METAvivor. Joann Schiavone Walbridge
Honest look needed To the editor: At a recent Eastwood School Board meeting, I was shocked at how many people have been tricked into believing that a new central elementary school would be free. I was equally shocked at all the buckets and trash cans that were set up to catch rainwater in both the middle and the high schools. The truth is, we have an increase in revenue and it’s time to decide the best way to use it. Unfortunately, we have some local officials who want to push through an agenda without taking an honest look at what the residents in the district want. Building a new school would be like me winning $20,000 and buying a new car instead of fixing my leaking roof. This is not Washington. Can we at least get our local politicians to listen to “We the People” and use our money wisely? Barney T. Spradling Luckey
Keep it honest To the editor: Our efficient Secretary of State Jon Husted has told us that in Ohio, it is easy to vote and hard to cheat. Vote from home, vote early in person

Take action today and impact what happens tomorrow Preparing for your future is a prudent strategy. Taking action today impacts what happens tomorrow. Understanding cause and effect relationships enables you to remain on your desired path. Your objective should be to constantly make the adjustments necessary in order to attain your goals. Any behavior that poisons your future needs to be avoided. Self-monitoring is the process which enables you to stay on a positive track. You make corrections whenever you begin to veer off in an undesired direction. You are responsible for your future. You make decisions. You make choices. No one else is responsible or at fault. You are not a victim. Making excuses poisons your future. You are in charge of where you go. If you don’t like what is happening, it’s up to you to fix it. We’ll take a look at some other common pitfalls which poison your future. If you identify any of them as affecting you, this recognition enables you to discard these bad habits. One of the most common traps is repeating the same mistakes over and over. Take a look at your past in order to distinguish between those strategies that worked and those that didn’t. When something isn’t working, stop doing it. Make changes or pick a completely different strategy. Acting without thinking is fraught with peril. The odds are that you will be pleased with the results. Always think before you act. Consider all possible options
Dare to Live
by Bryan Golden along with their outcomes. Attempting to fix stupid mistakes takes an inordinate amount of effort compared to the effort required to think first. There are consequences for every action you take. Strive for behavior which yields positive results. It’s important to learn from your experiences. It’s even more beneficial to learn from what others have already gone through. Taking advice from the wrong people creates numerous problems. Everyone has an opinion about what you should do. Seek guidance only from those who are already where you want to be or have successfully solved the same type of problem confronting you. Conducting your life in a manner to seek approval robs you of satisfaction and happiness. Your goals must be your own. You have to follow your own path. Be aware of your strengths, likes, and desires. It doesn’t matter what other people say, think, or do. Looking for sympathy puts you into a victim mentality. Incessant complaining alienates others while draining your energy. Having people feel sorry for you does
nothing to improve your situation. Positive proactivity is needed to uncover appropriate solutions for solving your problems. Identify a problem then look for ways to fix it. Harboring anger, bitterness, or resentment is toxic to you. It clouds your judgment and creates mental and physical problems. It causes you to become stuck in a situation. Sadly, there are some people who take delight in your agony and intentionally try to make you upset. Don’t take the bait. Life is not always fair. Let things go. Maintain forward motion. Seeking to get even is a bottomless pit. Doing harm to others boomerangs right back at you. Taking advantage of another person attracts negative factors into your life. Unethical behavior is a dead-end road which leads off a cliff. You are a magnet. Whether it’s positive or negative, you attract what you think about. Consistently negative thoughts will poison your future. Thoughts control your actions which in turn determine the results you experience. Your future is up to you. Stop engaging in any behavior that poisons it. Assess where you are now and where you would like to be. You are in the driver’s seat. Keep your eyes on the road and stay on the path of your choosing.

Former Press food editor created recipes for the fast lane Page Two by John Szozda
“
Her recipes struck a balance between convenience, great taste and nutritional quality.
“
Betty McCrea, former Press food editor, passed away Tuesday, September 16 at age 89. Betty wrote for The Press from 1982 to 1994. When she wrote her first column, Bon Appetit, less than 50 percent of American women were in the workforce and only 27 percent of households had a microwave oven. But, the country was changing fast and by the time Betty retired, 58 percent of American women worked outside the home and 90 percent of our households had a microwave. Betty recognized this trend and provided our readers with recipes for the microwave and the crock pot. She wrote about make-ahead meals and how to best utilize “the busy cooks best friend and money saver”—the freezer. In the cookbook she wrote for The Press in 1987, she summarized the challenges of the modern cook juggling family meals with the demands of the workplace, organized sports for the children and the hectic schedule of the two-worker household: “`I just have no time to cook!’ Probably no other statement says more accurately what hectic schedules and the way we live today contribute to this dilemma. As a result we find ourselves needing fast foods for fast lifestyles. The lack of time does not dispel the fact that we’re willing to accept any less in terms of variety, excitement and nutrition as well as economy. We feel that we must get as much out of every minute spent in the kitchen as possible…This book was
written with that intent, that it would help you deal with this problem and it contains recipes that require a small amount of time to prepare.” The chapter titles reflected that goal. They included Creative Crockery, Easy Entertaining and Magic Microwave. In her zeal to provide recipes for the cook with little time and many demands, Betty made it a point to create dishes that utilized ingredients found in most kitch-
ens. Once in a while, though, she would spice it up with gourmet meals for entertaining guests. Betty told me she believed in small portions and making the meal visually attractive. “A good cook tempts the eye before tempting the palate,” she said. Such was the case when I invited myself to dinner at her Perrysburg home. I asked her to write a column entitled “Guess what dear, the boss is coming to dinner.” Here’s the menu she fixed for my wife and I as we joined her and her husband Jim: Spinach salad, Beef Chaucer with Parsley Rice; Broccoli in Lemon Butter; Tomatoes Mozzarella and Chocolate Vienna Torte. Excellent it was. And, by the way, I had an ulterior motive. We had three small children at the time and my wife and I both worked fulltime, with my wife sometimes working nights. Cooking then was my responsibility and too many nights it was fast food, chicken patties and lima beans, or fish sticks and corn. Betty’s other passion was traveling and it was in the small towns she visited that she sought out and brought home many recipes. She then customized them to suit her taste. Betty grew up in Michigan and learned her basics cooking for five brothers who liked to hunt. She wrote a number of columns on how to prepare wild game including venison and pheasant. Betty started many columns with a few
paragraphs about the history of the food she would use in her recipes. Here’s what she wrote about Poultry Gems: “When Plato proposed to the Academy that man can be defined as a ‘two-legged animal without feathers,’ Diogenes picked up a rooster and held it up for inspection of the Greek sages. `This,’ he said, `according to Plato’s definition, is a man.’” Plato altered his definition to `Man—a two-legged animal without feathers and with broad flat nails.’ Since then, we have come up with a more scientific formula for telling a man from a chicken but the historical fact remains that the two have lived in close association since about 2000 B.C.” In 1982 about 38 percent of dinners were prepared away from home, today we eat out or get take out about 50 percent of the time. We generally consume more calories when we eat out and it shows in the growing obesity rate. In 1980, about 15 percent of Americans were classified as obese, today it’s 30 percent. Unfortunately, more cooks have followed my style of cooking rather than Betty’s. Betty McCrea wrote more than 500 columns for The Press. Her recipes struck a balance between convenience, great taste and nutritional quality.

Cancer Awareness Fans raise over $50,000 to ‘kick’ childhood cancer By Brian Liskai Special to The Press liskai2x@roadrunner.com Dirt track race fans are passionate. Not only about their sport, but about helping one another. They are one big family. And when a member of the family needs help, hundreds of thousands of race fans are there to provide that support. That family came together at Fremont Speedway over a two-day period to help combat childhood cancer in the Third Annual Fremont Speedway Kick-It fundraiser. Along with raffles, a Kick-Bald event earlier in the year and other fundraisers, over $50,000 was raised. The Jeff Gordon Foundation will match that amount for a total over $100,000. The Kick-It for Children’s Cancer was part of NASCAR Sprint Cup Champion Jeff Gordon’s Children’s Foundation to raise funds and awareness for childhood cancer research. Kick-It was founded by a 10-yearold cancer patient with a big dream – to cure cancer by playing kickball. Kick-It has raised over $900,000 since 2009. And the dirt track racing community has responded in a huge way. Kickball tournaments and fund-raisers were held at race tracks throughout the county. At Fremont Speedway there was a fun kickball tournament, auction and more to raise funds for the Kick-It for Children’s Cancer. The goal was to raise at least $50,000, which was reached. In the two previous years, a combined $35,000 was raised. There have been events and fundraisers for the Fremont Speedway Kick-It program throughout the 2014 racing season, including a “Kick-Bald” event where drivers, sponsors, fans and others took bids to have their heads shaved. So far over $26,000 had been raised that way. And Jeff Gordon vowed to match the total amount raised by the Fremont Speedway Kick-It. Shelly Liskai has been the driving force behind the Fremont Speedway KickIt project and was very excited about how the fans and race teams have responded.
During the Kick-It tournament, Helena resident Scott Gressman tagging a player with Jessica Burdette standing on the base, Michelle Gressman in the background while Lacey Black and John Gressman watch from the golf cart. (Photo by Christopher Gilbert) “So many people have stepped up to help make this vision a reality. It’s so heartwarming to see the response we have gotten. We have one young racer, Tyler Gunn, who single-handedly went out in his community and raised over $5,000. And there’s stories like that throughout our racers and fans,” said Liskai. “I have to give a huge thanks to Michelle Gressman. She has stepped up to provide so much help. Also I have to thank my family and friends and Rich Farmer (Fremont Speedway Promoter) for all the support and encouragement.” The teams competing in the kickball tournament raised funds to compete for the coveted Kick-It Trophy. They played on three fields in the campground area across from the Sandusky County Fairgrounds. There were 15 teams entered and they were seeking donations for Kick-It online at www.kick-it.org (click on the “find a game”
tab and type in Fremont Speedway). The team with the highest online collection got an automatic bye into the second round. A very special part of the Fremont Speedway Kick-It event was having the family of Devin Kohlman on hand for the festivities. Devin touched the hearts of residents throughout the country last fall. The 13-year-old from Port Clinton lost his life to brain cancer. But prior, he inspired all of Northwest Ohio with his courage. He came home from treatment last October because he had exhausted the treatment options and wanted to spend time with friends and he wanted to be there for Christmas. People from throughout Northwest Ohio decorated a park near Devin’s home and turned out for a holiday pep rally. “Team Devin was made up of Devin’s family and friends. We’re so excited to have them participate and help bring awareness
to this great cause,” said Shelly Liskai. The Fremont Speedway Kick-It was part of the Seventh Annual Jim Ford Classic race weekend at the race track. It began with the University of Northwestern Ohio All Star Circuit of Champions sprint cars competing Friday night along with the 305 sprints and dirt trucks. The UNOH All Stars, 305 sprints and dirt trucks were back in action Saturday night with the All Stars vying for $10,000 to win the feature event. There were bands performing for an after-race party each night. Also, there was a queen’s contest in the Fremont Speedway Hall of Fame to crown the track’s 2015 queen and Lil Miss Fremont Speedway.

Breast self-exams help women “know their normal” For women, a healthy lifestyle includes conducting self-exams to detect for breast cancer. Breast self-exams are vital to discovering abnormalities, including lumps or tenderness, in the breasts. Self-examination increases the chances of early detection of breast cancer. According to John Hopkins Medical Center, 40 percent of diagnosed breast cancers are detected by women who feel a lump. Doctors urge women to conduct monthly self-exams to familiarize themselves with the look and feel of their breasts, which enables them to more readily recognize any abnormalities that may in-

dicate illness. There are a number of ways to conduct a breast self-exam, and women are urged to find the method they feel is most comfortable for them. The National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc., offers these tips for conducting a breast examination at home: • Examine breasts in the shower. NBCF says you should use the pads of your fingers and move around your entire breast in a circular pattern, moving from the outside to the center, checking the entire breast and armpit area. Check both breasts each month for any lumps, thickening or hardened knots. If you find a lump, visit your
physician for an evaluation. • Conduct an examination in bed. The breast tissue will naturally distribute over your chest wall and ribs when you are lying down. NBCF advises to place a pillow under your right shoulder and your right arm behind your head. Using your left hand, move the pads of your fingers around your right breast gently in small circular motions covering the entire breast area and armpit. Squeeze the nipple and check for discharge or lumps. Then repeat the process on the left breast. • Conduct a visual examination. Standing in front of the mirror, you can
look at your breasts with your hands at your side and over your head. Look for any differences between breasts. Many women find that their breasts are not exactly the same shape or size, but unusual dimpling or taut or thick skin may be indicative of a problem. Should any lumps or abnormalities be discovered during an examination, don’t panic but schedule an appointment with your doctor for a more thorough examination, which may include a mammogram or ultrasound to map out images of the breast that may be hidden to the naked eye.

Time to “get real about teal”
Facts about cancer
Throughout the month of September, area residents may have noticed teal ribbons placed prominently on light poles, in store windows and other locations throughout area communities. The effort was part of the Ovarian Cancer Connection’s mission during Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month to raise awareness about ovarian cancer and the importance of early detection. OCC founder and President Gini Steinke lauded area businesses and towns who agreed to display the teal ribbons as well as OCC posters in support of the effort. The organization has been committed to raising awareness and educating the community on the early warning signs of ovarian cancer, and supporting women with ovarian cancer and their caregivers. As a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, funds raised stay here locally to support education, awareness, and financial assistance for women with ovarian cancer. Though Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month may be ending, Steinke wants women to remember that pap tests do not detect ovarian cancer. She advises that women learn and remember the symptoms, which can include: • Bloating • Pelvic or abdominal pain • Urinary symptoms, such as urgency or frequency • Unexplained weight gain or loss • Difficulty eating or feeling full quickly. Although the symptoms are vague and often associated with other medical issues, women who experience one or more of them for more than a few weeks should see their physician or gynecologist. Early detection increases survival rates. For information about the Ovarian Cancer Connection, visit www.ovarianconnection.org or call 419-866-6622.
The Victory Center provides support and education for cancer patients.
Online raffle helps cancer patients Winning an all-expense paid Caribbean vacation while supporting a local cancer wellness center is definitely a winning combination. The Victory Center will be conducting an online raffle from Oct. 1 through Nov. 12, with one lucky person winning a vacation for two to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The trip includes seven nights at the allinclusive, five-star RIU Palace Punta Cana; non-stop flights from Detroit and all food, beverages, taxes and tips. The Victory Center, located at 5532 W. Central Ave., Suite B, Toledo, was founded in 1996 to support and educate cancer patients and those closest to them by providing services aimed at meeting the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those touched by cancer. Services are provided at no cost to patients. Raffle tickets are $20 each, though dis-
counted packages are available for those who want multiple chances to win. Only 2,000 tickets will be sold and all proceeds benefit center programs and services. Raffle tickets can only be purchased online at: www.thevictorycenter.org. “It’s the first time we’ve ever tried a fundraiser like this,” said Dianne Cherry, executive director. “Pools, restaurants, spa, sailing, kayaking....it’s all included! We’re so grateful to be working with Central Travel and our media sponsor, iHeartMedia to make this raffle possible.” One winner will be randomly selected on Friday, Nov. 14. The winner has one year to book flights and travel. For more information about The Victory Center’s support of cancer patients, visit www.thevictorycenter.org or call 419-5317600.
Despite the prevalence of cancer, some information about this potentially deadly disease is not widely known. Following are some facts about cancer that may surprise many people. 1. Married people or those in steady relationships are more likely to survive cancer, which may be linked to couples’ increased concern and awareness of each other’s conditions and their push for cancer screenings. 2. Ovarian cancer, colon cancer, and lung cancer are typically asymptomatic until they spread elsewhere in the body. That is why routine screenings for these diseases are so vital. 3. Those who sleep fewer than six hours a night are more likely to develop colon cancer than those who sleep more. 4. The highest rate of people diagnosed with melanoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer, are white men over the age of 50. 5. Men with a family history of breast cancer are at a higher risk for prostate cancer. 6. The left breast is statistically more prone to developing cancer than the right breast. Unfortunately, doctors and scientists are unsure why.
Cheer For A Cure Mark your calendars for the 11th Annual Genoa “Cheer For A Cure” Championship, which will be held Feb. 21, 2015 at Genoa High School. More than 95 cheer squads from local high schools and elite teams participated in this year’s competition, which was held in February. The one-day event raised more than $49,000 for the fight against cancer. The non-profit Stella Bertz Cheer For A Cure was established in 2005 in memory of the generosity and dedication of Stella Bertz, who coached cheerleading in the Genoa Area School District for more than 10 years. Bertz succumbed to cancer in February 2003. Visit http://cheerforacure.org/ for more details.

NWO Race for the Cure to honor Denise McCroskey Before she was diagnosed with breast cancer, Denise McCroskey believed all the breast cancer myths: “Breast cancer doesn’t hurt, so I know this breast pain isn’t cancer.” “Very young women and very old women don’t get breast cancer.” “I have no family history of breast cancer, so I don’t worry about it.” Then in September 2011, at the age of 55, the Oregon resident and Lake High School graduate found a lump. She knew instinctively it was cancer. The doctor confirmed her fears. She had stage three breast cancer and would need surgery, chemo and radiation. She also told her, “We can cure you,” words that brought hope in the days ahead, so much so that she put them on her dining room wall. Though her spirits were buoyed by the support of family and friends, the road wasn’t easy. At a particularly low point, she received a note from an old friend from high school. The simple message, “Hello, courage” became the name for McCroskey’s Race for the Cure team. It also served as the inspiration for the blog she started to help other women who find themselves on the overwhelming and frightening journey after a diagnosis of breast cancer. Visit Denise’s blog at http://denise4health.wordpress.com/. To date, she’s received more than 500,000 hits from 132
Cancer Awareness Briefs countries. Her postings have also been picked up by major publications, such as Ladies Home Journal. In addition, she opened an online store offering chemo caps, hats and scarves, along with other items, available at www.hellocourage.com. Denise McCroskey Because of the outreach, inspiration and hope she gives to others, and in tribute to her unbreakable spirit, this year’s Northwest Ohio Komen Race for the Cure, set for Sunday, Sept. 28 in downtown Toledo, is named in celebration of Denise McCroskey.

Screenings, lifestyle are key in avoiding colon cancer Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both the United States and Canada, according to the American Cancer Society and the Canadian Cancer Society, who project nearly 60,000 Americans and Canadians will lose their lives to colorectal cancer in 2014 alone. Though many risk factors for colorectal cancer, including age, heredity and racial and ethnic background, are beyond an individual’s control, that does not mean people are helpless to reduce their risk for this potentially deadly disease. Maintaining or adopting a healthy lifestyle can reduce a person’s risk of developing various cancers, and colorectal cancer is no exception. The following are a few ways adults can reduce their chance of developing colorectal cancer. • Get screened. As is the case with
many cancer treatments, colorectal cancer treatments are much more effective when cancer is detected and treated early. Colorectal cancer screenings help find polyps before they become cancerous. Screenings and screening guidelines vary depending on the individual, as people with a higher than average risk for the disease may be told to start receiving annual screenings before they turn 50 – the age when people are told to receive such screenings regardless of their backgrounds. • Watch your diet. Adopting a healthier diet can help reduce the risk for colorectal cancer. Red meat is a great source of many nutrients, including protein, iron and zinc, but studies have shown that a diet high in red meat increases a person’s risk for colorectal cancer, which may be due to chemicals known as nitrites form-
ing when meat is digested or processed. A diet without much red or processed meats can lower one’s risk for colorectal cancer. • Reduce exposure to heterocyclic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Meat that is barbecued, fried, broiled, or cooked to well-done can produce heterocyclic amines, or HCAs, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs, both of which have been found to cause changes in DNA that may increase cancer risk. According to the National Cancer Institute, HCAs form when amino acids, sugars and creatine react at high temperatures, such as those necessary when frying foods or grilling over an open flame. To reduce exposure to HCAs and PAHs, avoid prolonged cooking times and direct exposure of meat to an open flame
or high heat source, flip meat often, discard charred areas of meat before eating and never use meat drippings to make gravy. • Cut back on alcohol consumption. The International Agency on Cancer Research notes that there is sufficient evidence linking alcohol consumption to colorectal cancer. Men and women who excessively consume alcohol may be at greater risk of colorectal cancer because such consumers tend to have low levels of folic acid in the body. Numerous studies have linked low levels of folate to a higher risk of colorectal cancer, and one study that examined the effects of folate deficiency on mice concluded that folate deficiency increased DNA damage by decreasing the expression of two genes involved in DNA repair.

For Flyers, Eagles — it may come down to defense By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Eastwood football is where Lake wants to be. Perennial league and playoff contenders, the Eagles have built themselves into a powerful program that has established itself as one of Northwest Ohio’s best — one that can compete with some of the state’s best teams. In Coach Mark Emans’ second year in Millbury, the Flyers appear to be headed in the same direction. A playoff qualifier last year, Lake was 4-0 and 1-0 in the Northern Buckeye Conference and eighth in the Division IV, Region 12 rankings with 4.9 points before Friday’s contest against visiting Woodmore. The Flyers have been dominant in getting to this point, outscoring their opponents 160 (195-35) points in their first four games. Lake senior quarterback Jared Rettig, who has committed to play football at the University of Findlay, threw for 238 yards and four touchdowns while completing 16-of-20 passes in Lake’s 49-7 victory over Otsgeo. Zac Greenlese caught two touchdown passes and Connor Bowen hauled in another, and running back Branden Short carried the ball 14 times for 131 yards and two scores, one rushing and one receiving. Short’s ability to run the ball has served as an important complement to the passing attack and helps to bring balance to the offense. But it’s the Flyers’ defense that has played just as well, allowing only 35 points while holding opponents in check. Eastwood, meanwhile, was 3-1 overall and 1-0 in the NBC after four weeks, good enough to earn the 11th spot with 5.25 points in the Division V, Region 16 rankings. The Eagles’ only loss came to Clyde, the second ranked team in the Associated Press Division III statewide poll, 32-22, in Week 2. After that, Coach Jerry Rutherford’s squad won two straight, shutting out Oak Harbor (31-0) and Woodmore (42-0) in convincing fashion. Running backs Devin Snowden and Grant Geiser have powered the Eastwood rushing attack, and quarterback Zach Thompson has performed when called upon. In last week’s 42-0 victory over Woodmore, the Eagles rushed 47 times for 395 yards and six touchdowns. Emans knows that his club will have to contain Snowden and Geiser if it wants to stay in the game. “We pride ourselves on defense of always doing ‘your job,’” said Emans, who won a state championship at Wauseon in 1993. “We have played Northwood and Ottawa Hills, who both ran the option very well and our kids had to play very disciplined football. Knowing your responsibilities and executing them week in and week

Coach (defensive coordinator Dave) Rymers has done a phenomenal job of having our defense ready every week and having them fly to the ball.” Emans, who happens to be a 1980 graduate of Eastwood and once served as an assistant at his alma mater, knows the challenge his Lake team is up against. “It’s no surprise to us that Eastwood is a talented team,” he said. “Every year, we know they will be one of the toughest games on the schedule; this year is no different. They have a very good and experienced group of players. We always hope our league is represented well in the nonleague schedule, and they are always very good.” Beating the Eagles would be a huge step forward as Lake tries to reach that next level. Eastwood has won 13 straight, outscoring Lake 505-116 during that stretch. “We try and win one week at a time,” Emans said. “Last year, we felt Northwood was that big game to get us over the hump and we won and went 8-2 and made the playoffs.

Rutherford said. “It’s even more important when playing a team like Lake.” Like Lake, Eastwood has a huge challenge in front of them. Beating the Flyers would help the Eagles to accumulate valuable computer points while gaining the upper hand in the league standings. “I’ve known Mark a long time,” Rutherford said. “He and his staff are doing a great job at Lake. They have some outstanding athletes. This will be a big challenge for us.”
Genoa, and playoff games last year were amazing. It’s why we coach and play this great game. We know to get where we want to be this year and in the future, we need to beat the great teams like Eastwood, Genoa, and all the good teams in the NBC.” The Eagles will look to stifle the Flyer attack by trying to keep Rettig & Co. off the field. “With our offense it’s always a goal to drive the ball and take time off the clock,”

Bassitt twirls gem, blanks Tigers for 7 2/3 in first win By Scott Merkin mlb.com sports@presspublications.com
Established White Sox mark Bassitt (1-1) became the first White Sox pitcher to toss at least seven scoreless innings within the first five games of his Major League career since Carlos Torres on Sept. 3, 2009. Per STATS LLC, the last White Sox rookie to work at least 7 2/3 scoreless innings in his first career win was Brandon McCarthy on Aug. 30, 2005. This particular night’s success came from Bassitt pitching a little backwards in the count, throwing off speed stuff when the Tigers were expecting fastballs. He also threw 10 strikes among his 14 changeups, which was a pitch Bassitt rarely used in the Minors. “Honestly, we joke about it that it might be my second- or third-best pitch right now,” said Bassitt of the changeup. “My curveball went away a little bit. I’m throwing a lot more changeups than I usually do. Just continue to build off it for next year.” Fellow rookie Kyle Lobstein (1-1) started for the Tigers and allowed just two runs

“
It’s just day-to-day and whatever happens, happens. But it’s a huge learning process right now. Do well, that's great. Do bad, learn from it as much as you can and keep going.
“
A decent number of Tigers fans exist among Chris Bassitt’s group of friends, with the White Sox rookie having grown up in Curtice about 45 minutes from Comerica Park. Some of those Detroit supporters were among the 100 or so friends and family members who came to watch Bassitt shut down the Tigers in a 2-0 White Sox victory Monday night, marking the first career win for the right-hander. “Chris was the first kid to come through our program to play in the Majors,” Genoa Little League President Lee Nissen emailed The Press. “I would not have missed it for the world. I was very proud of his performance and all the work it took to get there. Chris is a great kid from a great family. I am sure there will be bigger and better things to come for him.” With the Tigers (86-70) battling the Royals (85-71) for the top spot in the American League Central with six games remaining, Bassitt did not exactly produce universal happiness among those close to him following his 7 2/3 scoreless innings. “They were hoping for a no-decision, win for them: not me,” said a smiling Bassitt, after throwing 72 of his 103 pitches for strikes. “So I’ll have to make fun of them a little bit.” “It was some terrific Bass is what it was,” said White Sox manager Robin Ventura of Bassitt. “He was throwing strikes. I don’t know if his fastball command was really there, but his offspeed stuff was great.”
Chris Bassitt
on five hits over seven innings, striking out five. Those two runs came in the second when with two outs, Carlos Sanchez doubled to left-center and Tyler Flowers followed with his 15th homer and 50th RBI.
Flowers connected on a first-pitch changeup, propelling the White Sox (7284) to their eighth win in 12 games. “Something elevated out over the plate,” said Flowers of the pitch leading to
his sixth homer in the last 13 games. “You don’t want to chase, but I know working with pitchers, that’s a situation in an at-bat where you want to get ahead of the guy.” Detroit managed just six hits off Bassitt, who struck out three and did not issue a walk until Victor Martinez drew a free pass with two outs in the eighth to bring in Jake Petricka (14th save). But the Tigers did have their chances. Miguel Cabrera’s double, his 50th, and a Victor Martinez hit-by-pitch put two on with two outs in the first, only to have J.D. Martinez fly out to Moises Sierra in center. Avisail Garcia’s diving catch in right on Cabrera’s line drive ended the third and probably prevented Torii Hunter from scoring from first after his two-out single. Two more singles in the fourth were wasted, when Alex Avila struck out looking and Andrew Romine grounded out to Sanchez at second. Victor Martinez was stranded in the sixth following a leadoff double. All of this action, or non-action as it was, helped send Bassitt’s family off to a late-night celebratory dinner in good spirits. Those Tigers’ fans among his group only can hope Bassitt does the same sort of work Sunday against the Royals in the ‘14 finale. “He mixed his pitches, got a little bit of movement,” said Detroit manager Brad Ausmus of Bassitt. “He did a nice job.” “Like I said in my first interview, I’m going to take my lumps. I know that,” Bassitt said. “It’s just day to day and whatever happens, happens. But it’s a huge learning process right now. Do well, that’s great. Do bad, learn from it as much as you can and keep going.” Look out Tribe Three weeks ago, the White Sox were in Cleveland playing a weekend series against his boyhood team, the Indians. However, he would only admit that in a round-about way. “Honestly, I was really not much of a baseball fan growing up,” Bassitt told The Press. “I liked the Yankees, but at the same time, I always think I was thrown into the Cleveland atmosphere, and I had to like all Cleveland sports, so if I would have to root for somebody, I would say I’d have to root for the Indians. But I wasn’t very much of a follower of baseball when I was growing up. It was all football and basketball.” (Scott Merkin is a reporter for MLB. com.

Lake, Genoa equestrians focus on district titles By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com The Lake and Genoa equestrian teams are one district meet away from qualifying for the state meet. In the second district meet of the season, both teams won championships in their respective divisions for the second straight time. Lake, a two-time Ohio Interscholastic Horsemanship Association defending state champion, won the Division 2 championship, scoring 138 points to push ahead of runner-up Eastwood (92) and third place Bowling Green (47). In Division 3, Genoa scored 54 points to score over the runner-up Port Clinton No. 3 Team (8). In Division 1, Oak Harbor was runner-up, scoring 106 points to finish behind Port Clinton No. 1 (110), Otsego (100) was third and Perrysburg (61) fourth. Lake has a 90 point lead over Eastwood and 224 point lead over BG heading into the final show on Sept. 28.

Stritch girls’ soccer closes on defending league title By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com If things go according to plan, Cardinal Stritch’s girls soccer team will clinch its second conference title within a week. Coach Dan Roggelin, in his 15th year, and the Cardinals clinched the Toledo Area Athletic Conference championship on Monday with a 1-0 victory at Ottawa Hills. If the Cardinals beat Bowsher on Saturday and Northwood on Monday, they will also win the Northwest Ohio Scholastic Soccer League title. Junior midfielder Kali Hardy scored the lone goal (in the first half) against Ottawa Hills, helping Stritch improve to 9-1 and 5-0 in the TAAC. “We beat Ottawa Hills for the first time in my career at Ottawa Hills’ stadium, and we won for the first time in my career at Whitmer on their turf.” Roggelin said. “That’s huge. Our girls knew we had never beaten Ottawa Hills at their place, on turf. We had beaten them on grass, but it’s a whole different game on turf.” The Cardinals’ lone setback is an ugly 8-2 loss to Delta, after Stritch forged a 2-1 halftime lead. “I told the girls what to expect,” Roggelin said, “and 34 seconds into the second half Delta scored from where I told them they were coming. We figured out we are a team and no matter what we decided to do together, we were going to play together. We came back two days later and played Ottawa Hills (in the first meeting) and just kept going from there.” Stritch owns two wins this season over both Ottawa Hills and Toledo Christian, with victories over Rossford, Otsego, Start, Northwood and Whitmer. The Cardinals, who finished 12-3-1 and tied Ottawa Hills
Stritch forward Kali Hardy. (Press photo by Doug Karns/KateriSchools.org
for the TAAC title last season, have outscored their 10 opponents by a 46-19 margin. “We have speed, and they’re coachable,” Roggelin said. “I have several players in different positions, and seven girls have scored this season. We knew we would be targeted, that we weren’t a flash in the pan. My core group of 16 of the 20 players on the roster, I could start any of them at any time. And we’re doing this with a new freshman goalie who hasn’t played goalie in a few years.” Freshman keeper Hanna Hymore has 94 saves this season, with a 1.25 goalsagainst average and four shutouts. “She’s coachable and very athletic,” Roggelin said. “She is surprisingly quick and a decent-sized girl. She’s quick on her feet and on the ball, and she’s not shy about telling the other players what she needs them to do.” Junior midfielder/forward Kama Hardy leads the Cardinals with 20 goals and six assists. Hardy was the TAAC Player of the Year last season and a first-team all-district selection. “She runs the team,” Roggelin said. “She’s one of my three captains and is knowledgeable about soccer, and she will play at the college level. She takes a beating out there because other teams know who she is. A lot of her scores are with other players pushing on her and grabbing her.” Senior captain and midfielder Sarah Wamer has eight goals and six assists, and Kali Hardy has seven goals. “Sarah is a pretty consistent player, and she’s surprised me at times,” Roggelin said. “I try to convince her what she’s capable of doing. Her best game is still out there. Kali is a little tiny girl but she’s strong. You don’t just push her off the ball. She’s a player I use at practice to show some of young-
er players here’s how you play this game. She’ll run all day and won’t give up.” Sophomore forward Caitlyn Amborski has four goals and one assist, while outside defender Abbie Reichert and senior midfielder/forward Danielle Mancy have two goals apiece. “Caitlyn plays defender on her summer team and is one of those kids who keeps fighting, plugging away,” Roggelin said. “I’ll put her at forward and back on defense for a little bit and she will just keep on playing and never complain. Abbie is the fastest thing on two legs that I’ve ever seen. She takes a beating and keeps on fighting. Danielle is feisty and aggressive. I’ve had her at every position but keeper this year. She’s just goes where I need her and she’s happy to be out there playing.” Freshman forward Olivia Hymore has two goals and three assists. “I point to Kali and say to Olivia, ‘that’s what you have to be like, build that strength where you can’t get knocked off the ball,’ ” Roggelin said. “Olivia’s going to be a force to be reckoned with at the high school level.” Other key contributors have been senior outside midfielder Cali Wiskochil (two assists), senior defenders C.C. Gozdowski and Cassie Gruetter, junior midfielder Jettie Moore (three assists), sophomore defender Jami Hardy, and freshman defenders Maddie Brown and Courtney Hardy. Sophomores Manureet Mangat and Allie Conroy complete the roster. Roggelin said the Cardinals’ goal this season is to reach the regional tournament. Stritch’s best recent postseason run was a district runner-up finish in 2005. “I’d like to go much further,” Roggelin said. “This team can do it if they play well. Several of them haven’t had the game of their season yet, and I’m hoping that comes.”
Behind 12-straight wins, Eagles are league runner-up By Stephanie Szozda Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com The Clay girls’ tennis team was on a roll this season, highlighted by a 12-match winning streak during the regular season, The Eagles finished tied for second with St. Ursula in the Three Rivers Athletic Conference. Clay also took first place at the Fostoria invitational for the second year in a row, defeating second place Springfield. The team victory was led by individual championships from Bailey Coughlin at first singles and the team of Haley Orr and Hannah Kuhlman at first doubles. Also contributing towards the team’s effort were fifth place finishes by Sarah Ulinski and Jessica Takacs at third doubles and a runner-up finish by Allie Reichert and Alayna Rodriguez at second doubles. Coughlin is 14-6 overall at first singles, including 5-2 in the TRAC. Orr (15-4, 6-1) also played second doubles throughout the season, Kuhlman (13-5, 5-2) was at third singles, and typically Reichert and Rodriguez teamed up at first doubles and Ulinski and Takacs at second doubles. First doubles teams are 11-10 overall and were 4-3 in league play, second doubles teams ere 11-7 and 4-2. “We had a good overall season, especially in light of our relative youth. We had
only two returning starters in the line-up and both are our only seniors,” explains Clay veteran coach Walt Ralph. Ralph has been Clay’s girls’ tennis coach since 1996 and said last year’s team was the best he’s seen so far. However, he admits the numerous successes of this year’s team left him somewhat shocked and pleasantly surprised. “It’s been a fun season because we had a great year last year, from a team that was senior dominant,” Ralph said. “We had basically two players coming back into the varsity line-up this year with any varsity experience. So you know it’s a pretty cool feeling to me now, in hindsight, to remember how apprehensive and I guess nervous and anxious I was at the season’s start having a lot of unanswered question as to who was going to fill those holes and how we were going to do those things. “We have had incredible contributions from our two returning starters (Coughlin and Orr). And our young players have worked very hard to improve their games and are all tough competitors. It’s a nice balance.” As for the final stretch, there was one match the coach would like to have back. “We had a disappointing loss to Central that tested our resolve a bit. But I was proud to see them rebound with a terrific win against Findlay. We have had several recent opportunities to show our toughness

and now I feel like we are starting to believe it about ourselves. We are a tougher team today then we were four weeks ago. I am proud of that,” explains Coach Ralph. The Clay coach may make some adjustments during the tournament, which began this week, to give his athletes a better chance of advancing to district play. “I think the two seniors (Coughlin and Orr) that we did have playing at first and second singles during the year, they are going to team up together and play doubles and I think they will have some success there,” Ralph said. “Anytime you take two people that are used to covering a whole court by themselves and kind of pair them up there, there are parts in there that we are nervous about, like communicating with each other and some of the nuances of doubles, but we are still pretty hopeful that they are going to well in that spot. “Our first doubles team is now going to play second doubles because the seniors are going to be playing together and so I think they are going to have a pretty good shot at some success as well. We are hopeful we will get at least those two doubles teams if not a singles player advancing into the district tournament the following week.” Ralph said last year was memorable because of five seniors, Cassidy Coughlin, Jennifer Belkofer, Emilie Roman, Jenn Lucas and Rachel Nelson. He said it was a tough act to follow, but they came through.

Back to the ‘80s benefit By Cynthia L. Jacoby Special to The Press news@presspublications.com Grab your leg warmers and cans of hair spray and head to the Back to the 80s Dance fundraiser Saturday, Oct. 4 for the Genoa Academic Committee. Members want you there and they want it all – the good, the bad and the ugly styles of nearly 30 years ago. Shoulder pads were the most defining trend of the time next to the big hair. One day it was tight-fitting stirrup pants topped with an oversized shirt and the next MC Hammer draping drawers. And don’t forget the big earrings or fingerless gloves. GAC members are hoping this first plunge into the blast to the past helps raise substantial cash for the cause – their devotion to education. The GAC, under the guidance of President Kellie Szymanski, formed two years ago with the goal of encouraging, promoting, supporting and rewarding academic achievement among students. Members work in tandem with parents, teachers and community members to achieve those goals. Szymanski, who is a teacher in another school system, said she considers it a privilege to have been a part of this group’s formation. Because in that short time, members have managed to make major strides, she said. They tantalized students’ tastes with ice cream reward days. But they’ve also challenged their academic prowess by offering a multitude of education-geared events like Career Days and a Top 20 Recognition Banquet. And they’ve contributed to technology improvements with iPad donations last school year and graphic calculators this year. But those efforts take cash. And that’s why they’re hoping the dance will rev up support. “You just can’t go wrong with an 80s dance. Everybody loves that music,” Szymanski said. Tickets are $25 each for the Oct. 4 dance that runs from 7 p.m. to midnight at Oak Shade Grove, 3624 Seaman St., Oregon. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the bar at 7 p.m. The ticket includes all beverages. You must be 21 to attend and it’s a bring-your-own munchies event. Some partygoers, however, have already reserved a spot at one of the themedtables. For $280, groups of eight can be seated by the dance floor, enjoy snacks and get eight free song requests. Those tables are sold out, according to Szymanski. GAC members sought out area businesses to provide a number of goodies including gift cards and merchandise donations. Some of the gift card donators for the night include Walmart, Meijer, the Andersons, Oregon Inn, the Mud Hens, Crazy Lady Saloon, Cousino’s Steakhouse and lots of sponsors who will all receive recognition in the programs as well as during DJ announcements through the night, she explained. Genoa Bank and Baumann Auto Group are sponsoring the live auction. That package includes a Winter GetAway Destination Vacation, which includes a $1,000 voucher from Central Travel to travel anywhere. And Genoa Bank is donating a signed guitar valued at approximately $500. To get tickets, message GAC at its Facebook page “Genoa Academic Committee Back to the 80’s Dance” or contact one of the officers Kellie Szymanski (kjszym@yahoo.com); Jennifer Witt (419-277-2761); Jennifer Marquardt or Melissa Wagner.

Maritime Academy of Toledo cadets on their first day aboard the U.S. Brig Niagara.
Cadets train on U.S. Brig Niagara Ten Maritime Academy cadets had the opportunity to work and train on U.S. Brig Niagara for seven days Sept. 16 to 22 as part of a training program offered by the reconstructed relief flagship of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. The cadets are part of the Maritime Academy of Toledo’s Career Tech Education (CTE) Program, an exclusive three-year education-to-work or maritime college program that trains cadets to enter the maritime industry or to further their education after high school graduation. The cadets included Nathanial Batey, Charlie Counterman, Matt Kreamer, Damien Powell, Brandon Craveas, Noah Davis, Cody Ide, Alfred Sheppard, Dallas Banda and Gary Cunningham. Maritime Academy teacher Sheri Rodgers traveled with the cadets. The cadets departed Sept 16 at 8 a.m. for Erie, Pennsylvania, where they joined the crew of U.S. Brig Niagara. Upon arrival, they went through ship familiarity training, emergency drills, and stayed aboard overnight. On Sept. 17, they sailed with the Niagara to Buffalo, New York where the brig took part in the Second Annual Buffalo Maritime Festival from Sept. 19 to 21. The cadets returned home Sept. 22. While aboard ship, the cadets partici-
pated in underway activities, watch standing, in-port watch, small boat operations, cleaning and other vessel activities. “This is an incredible opportunity for our cadets,” Brown said. The cost for the training is approximately $500 per student for the week’s experience and was paid for through corporate donations. For more information on the Maritime Academy of Toledo, visit www.maritimeacademy.us, email info@maritimeacademy. us or call 419-244-9999.
campus-wide committees, assisting with the formation of new student organizations, and serving as a voice for the student body. “Without student government, students’ opinions wouldn’t always be heard,” Smith said. “Now, students have a voice and campus life is more lively. Everyone is involved in more activities.” Smith, a police science major, hadn’t really seen himself taking a leadership role in the group, but was convinced to run for president by Associate Dean of Students Heath Martin. Martin recognized leadership qualities in Smith. A few months into his presidency, Smith is pleased with his role. “It’s a lot of work, but it’s fun,” he said. “I get to be involved with different events and it’s great knowing what’s going to happen before it happens.”

Seeking caring individuals to help foster or adopt Peaches' Cousins! The Press has 11 Kittens to help find homes. We have successfully domesticated two kittens so far. They are very gentle and cuddly. So with a little love and time we believe they could all make great family pets! They may not be good in homes with small children as they are quite shy. We are also willing to adopt some as barn cats as well as they love the outdoors. We have Oranges, Tortoiseshells, Tigers, and Black ones. We are working to get them all fixed!
