Education is key to recycling By Kelly J. Kaczala News Editor Kkpresspublications.com

Contamination Waste Management accepts some recyclable materials. Other items are processed by a third party, according to Beazley. “There’s less demand for the stuff we are putting in front of our houses,” he said. “And we are putting the stuff out in poor condition. It’s contaminated - I may have too much pizza sauce on the cardboard. And the world doesn’t want some of my paper, even it’s perfectly clean. Those are Continued on page 4

Northwood says:

Weeds in Lake Twp. hurt mall development By Kelly J. Kaczala and Larry Limpf Northwood Councilmember Dan Mikolajczyk is not happy with Lake Township when it comes to taking care of lots with overgrown weeds in the surrounding area of the former Woodville Mall, where Northwood is trying to attract new commercial and residential development. “Northwood has invested more than $2.3 million to clean up - and hopefully revitalize - the old Woodville Mall location,” said Mikolajczyk. “We have high hopes of investors wanting to bring in new businesses to this location and maybe creating a new multi-use and extended downtown area for Northwood. If this occurs, the city, as well as Lake Township, would gain some possible new business ventures.” But he said tall weeds, unkempt lots and abandoned buildings in Lake Township near the mall property are chasing away development. “We’re trying to clean the mall property over here. It’s going to be hard to get something reasonable in there that’s going to please everybody, but it doesn’t help if there is high grass,” said Mikolajczyk.

“

Why is the township not worried, or not willing to be a good neighbor to Northwood as to taking care of this blighted area?

“

The Public Utilities and Environmental Committee in Oregon recently met to discuss options to its recycling program. Last month, city council heard Mayor Mike Seferian, City Administrator Mike Beazley and Public Service Director Paul Roman talk about rising costs to recycle. China will no longer accept most recycling materials from the U.S. due to contamination, which has narrowed the market for recycled materials. As a result, costs could increase up to $11,000 more per month for the city to continue its recycling program with Waste Management. The city has two years left of a five year contract with Waste Management. The contract includes unlimited garbage pickup. There is a separate cost for the recycling program. “Our current costs are about $12 per household per month,” Roman said at the committee meeting. “We’ll probably go out to bid for this five year contract likely next summer.” Waste Management has made a request for a 14 percent increase in the unit price, or $1.72 more per household per month, said Roman. “We like recycling,” said Beazley. “There is unfortunately less recycling going on than many of us who are avid recyclers think there is. Something we think we’re recycling is ending up in landfills. That’s part of the challenge.”

“Nobody is going to want to move into our town with high grass either in Northwood or Lake Township. Right now, at the intersection of State Rte. 579 and State Rte. 51, a gas station and mini-strip mall area abut the Woodville Mall property that we are trying to clean up to be attractive to potential developers. Several of these Lake Township properties have overgrown grass problems that are not being addressed by township officials,” he said. The former Food Town building on St.

Rte. 51 is surrounded by overgrown grass and weeds, he said, as well as long term parking of semis in the lot. He added that the structure itself is unsafe because of a decayed roof. “Our city attorney and Northwood Mayor Ed Schimmel have had talks with the township about the tall grass issues as well as the condition of these buildings, and the city’s concern over what this picture presents to a possible developer looking for an area to invest in that the city and the township would both benefit. Why is the township not worried, or not willing to be a good neighbor to Northwood as to taking care of this blighted area? It is very frustrating,” Mikolajczyk said. Northwood City Administrator Bob Anderson confirmed that the city and township have had discussions about the issue. “We’ve been talking with them to form some kind of joint economic development district. We have been unsuccessful about that in the past,” said Anderson. “We are trying to develop the former mall property, and across the street it doesn’t look too good. But they are our neighbors and I’m Continued on page 2

But here again, we then get into the issues of the neighboring properties. So it’s all interconnected. It’s very complicated. It’s going to take a number of years to develop that site. It’s not going to happen in 2019, although a foundation might be laid in 2019.” The three township trustees, Richard Welling, Ken Gilsdorf and Jeff Pettit, said Tuesday they’ve not been contacted by Northwood officials. Mark Hummer, township administrator, said he met with Anderson recently but their conversation focused on ways to promote the Woodville Road corridor. “I haven’t had any complaints but I will be happy to speak with them,” he said. The township does have a policy covering noxious weeds, Pettit said. It was adopted in 2013 as part of a broader nuisance abatement resolution that requires the property owner be notified of the problem before the township takes enforcement action. Welling said the owner of the former Food Town building has been trying to sell it.

going to remain as friendly as I can with them.” Anderson compared it to property values dropping for homeowners trying to sell their houses when the neighbors aren’t maintaining their properties. “It is going to affect your property value. I think Lake Township actually cares, but maybe does not have the will to address the issue. Most people think these properties around the mall are in Northwood, but they are not. It’s a Lake Township issue. We have talked with them in the past about developing joint economic development agreements that would allow us to address the issue of cleaning up the properties. We are aware that trying to put in new investment in this area is hindered by the appearance of the surrounding areas, both in the city and not in the city,” said Anderson. Northwood has a six-month contract with Danbury National to find a developer for the mall property, said Anderson. “Brian McMahon is looking for possible buyers or tenants – people who would be willing to enter into an agreement with the city to develop that property. Obviously, the devil is always in the detail in those agreements,” said Anderson. Although the city was undecided in the past as to whether the property should be developed for residential versus commercial, city council and the mayor have recently expressed a desire to see residential development at the site. “I believe that the mayor’s priority leans more toward developing it as a nice residential area with a small commercial front, like a restaurant. If we were in an area that was very desirable, such as Hilton Head, South Carolina, we would not have any problem at all developing this piece of property because of its location and desirability. But we’re not in that ball park. It will be our attempt to make this area a lit-

Oak Harbor Apple Festival 40th Anniversary By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer news@presspublications.com It’s that time of year again – the time of the year when the leaves start to change colors, football season is in full swing and nightfall descends upon us earlier every day. For Oak Harbor, that means it’s time for the Apple Festival. Held annually during the second weekend in October, the festival is celebrating its 40th year with this year’s event, set for Oct. 13 and 14. It’s an event that brings locals and people who have moved away back to the village for the weekend for food, camaraderie and reminiscing. A number of events are held, starting with the opening ceremonies. On Saturday, there is the parade, a cornhole tournament, a bluegrass band, a talent show and a beer tent that features a local band, The Junk, which is based in Port Clinton. On Sunday, there’s the pie-eating contest, a car show, the 5K Apple Run and performances by the Oak Harbor High School band and the Class ‘A’ Dance Studio. And being featured on both days are chainsaw carving demonstrations that are located at the west end of Water Street. Valerie Winterfield, executive director of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce, talked about why she enjoys the festival so much and what it has to offer. “I think because everyone comes to the event, people come home for it, I think it’s special because you run into people that you haven’t seen all year,” she said. “The

Cute kids will take the stage for the Cutest Baby Contest. (Press file photo by Ken Grosjean) parade is one of our major draws for people – it’s one of the most well-known things we have. I really like watching the baby contest, (and) I think the car show is pretty cool. “You can also eat any food that you want,” Winterfield said. “We have desserts, fried food, healthy food. We have something for everyone. You might want to play bingo or go to the beer tent, and there’s the parade. There’s something that you’ll be interested in. We try to spread it out with the bluegrass band. “There is plenty of planning that goes into making the festival a success,” she said. Derek Gerber, 34, is an Oak Harbor native who lives in Columbus. He talked about what he likes about the festival and why he comes home for it.

“Growing up in Oak Harbor, it was an event where everyone comes together to just relax and enjoy the food and entertainment,” he said. “What makes the Apple Festival something to look forward to is that you know you’re going to see old friends that you probably haven’t seen in a long time. The Apple Festival provides that connection. “I always felt like the parade was the official kickoff to the festival,” he said. “I think most adults look forward to the beer tent and the music. I usually participated in the 5K run.” For a complete schedule or more information, visit www.oakharborohio.net/ events/apple-festival or find the Oak Harbor Apple Festival on Facebook.

Northwood to hold 3rd annual Festival By Kelly J. Kaczala and Tammy Walro The Northwood Fall Festival will be held Saturday, Oct. 13, rain or shine, at Central Park, located at Wales at Oram roads. The festival will kick off at 11 a.m. with a parade beginning at Northwood Commons on Woodville Road . “This is the third annual festival and we hope to keep it going,” said Pat McGaharan, the Fall Festival chairman. New this year are the Dino-ROAR Ohio! And Frogtown Exotics in the kids area, according to McGaharan. “The dinosaurs are all life size. They will walk through the festival and interact with the kids. They will also be on parade and put on two shows on stage,” he said. “It will be really cool for the kids. Also in the kids area are Frogtown Exotics, which will feature turtles and frogs.” We will also have Nature’s Nursery, which brings small animals, like rabbits,” he said. Also new this year is a veterans parade. “In our parade, we’re honoring the veterans this year. We contacted several veter-

ans organizations. There are some who will ride on our ‘people mover” in the parade. Some WWII veterans plan to attend so long as their health allows. But we’ve invited all of our veterans to be in the parade. We also plan on having a guest speaker,” he said. Last year, the festival had a car show with over 100 cars. “It’s pretty big. We’ve actually outgrown the space. This year, we’re going to have Jeepsters in the group.” The festival was created by a group of 12 people who started a non-profit group called Northwood Community Cares, said McGaharan. Funds from the festival are donated to other non-profit groups. “We’ve donated to the food bank, the ladies auxiliary, the high school marching band, the Wood County deputy Explorers and the Miracle League,” he said. “We had hoped to make a go of it, and it’s just kept growing every year,” he said.

real challenges.” China has become more stringent in its quality standards over the last two years due to pollution problems in the country, according to Vince Crawford, public sector representative of Waste Management. In the past, China’s appetite for growth was so great, there was no demand for higher standards, he said. “When China shut its doors in January, it was very abrupt. It said it was no longer taking mixed paper or mixed plastics. It’s a hard thing to comprehend. I’ve been in this industry a long time. The amount of product China consumed was 50 percent of the world’s volume. Fifty percent of the world’s volume now has nowhere to go. So where does it go? It can only stack up for so long in a building before paper starts eroding to a point it’s no good. It becomes a safety hazard. Any product sitting in a warehouse somewhere is not recyclable. It’s just trash waiting to go into the landfill.” Increased costs are due to having to hire more people to sort through the non-recyclable materials that get into the recycle bins. After the materials were sorted, huge bales of recycled materials were processed and sent to China, which repurposed the materials. Education Crawford said many items that the public considers recyclable end up in the landfill because they are not on the list of recyclable materials that are accepted. Aluminum, cardboard, glass, and paper. “You put garbage in the recycling bin and you’re thinking we’re going to recycle it. But we can’t because that’s not what the machinery is set up to do. It’s only set up to do the items specified in all the agreements. I want to say 95 percent of all the municipal service agreements have those recyclable items. But we get hoses, Christmas trees lights, coffee pot makers, clothes, yard waste and propane tanks. There are people who put all the recyclables in a plastic bag and throw it into the recyclable bin. Now we can’t recycle those products. That is going into the landfill because those recyclable materials have to be loose,” he said. “So there’s the need for education.” “Is there something we could do to improve our waste stream that would help with the cost?” asked Councilwoman Sandy Bihn, who is also chairman of the committee. “We have provided as much information as possible, whether on our website or Facebook page, so people can have that awareness,” said Crawford. “The true reality of the processing cost is not going to change. That’s the biggest factor of what’s going to happen. The other portion of this is, even if Oregon’s material value was down to 10 percent contamination, that’s not really going to change the market. It’s taken America a long time to start recycling. Now it’s going to take us a long time to start recycling right. This is going to be a long road. There’s no doubt about it.” Beazley agreed. “We should be part of doing our role. It has to be a national campaign. It will gradually incrementally improve the market. You have to begin somewhere. People do change behavior over time.”

By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A forfeiture judgment recently settled in Wood County Common Pleas Court will result in the Lake Township Police Department receiving $331,991 for its law enforcement drug fund. Police Chief Mark Hummer announced the settlement by Judge Reeve Kelsey during last week’s meeting of the township trustees. In all, $400,590 was forfeited to the police and court. In addition to the Lake Township share, the Perrysburg Township Police Department drug fund will receive $7,999.80; the Wood County prosecutor’s office will receive $59,998.45 for its law enforcement trust fund, and $600.34 will be used to cover court costs. The case stems from a March, 26, 2017 traffic stop for turn signal violations on Bahnsen Road in Lake Township. According to the police report, the driver admitted to officers having $400,000 in cash in the trunk after being asked if he had any weapons, drugs or large amounts of money. The man voluntarily opened the trunk and consented to having the vehicle searched, according to police, and a suitcase with clothes and cash was found. The man told police he was paid

$1,000 to pick up the car, a rented Nissan, at a Detroit airport but said he didn’t know who the cash belonged to. The K-9 unit of the Perrysburg Township Police Department was called and the dog had a positive alert on the cash, according to the Lake Township report. The man’s name is redacted from the report, which quotes him as saying he did not want the money and wasn’t taking responsibility for it. He signed a seizure form and notice of forfeiture, the police report says. He was released without being charged and his personal property and vehicle were returned to him. Authorities began the forfeiture process in January of this year. In early February, an Arcadia, California man, Steven Xiang, filed a petition to recover the money, claiming the vehicle was unlawfully searched and stopped without probable cause. “There is nothing inherently illegal about possessing cash, even large quantities of cash, The property was not used or involved in the commission of a felony or a gambling offense and it was not directly or indirectly obtained through the commission of a felony or gambling offense,” Xiang’s complaint says. But on Sept. 5, he withdrew his motion to intervene in the case and dropped his civil suit for return of the money.

Lake Twp.

Compost site under consideration for residents By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Lake Township may establish its own composting program for leaves and brush it collects from residents. Mark Hummer, township administrator, said last week during a meeting of the township trustees he’s filing an application with the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency for the required permits to compost. Hummer made his comments in response to a complaint from a Bailey Road resident who again contested the rezoning of two parcels along Woodville Road from R-2 residential to B-2 general commercial. The trustees, by a 2-1 vote in May, agreed to the rezoning request from Jim Mlynek, who owns the parcels and is using them to temporarily store leaves before composting them at his nursery on the oth-

er side of Woodville Road. Joe Zemenski, a Bailey Road resident, on Tuesday challenged the B-2 classification, saying the site will resemble an industrial operation with trucks depositing leaves there and then transporting them across the road. The township and other entities, including the City of Oregon, have taken their leaves to Mlynek in the past, Zemenski said, and he said he expected that to continue. But Hummer said the township hasn’t made any plans this year to continue doing so. One reason for the township starting its own composting operation, he said, was the board of trustees has been accused of preferential treatment in the zoning matter because it had been taking its leaves to Mlynek in years past. Hummer said the township is considering a parcel adjacent to the cemetery on Walbridge Road for the compost site.

Zemenski also questioned the zoning code definition of a storage facility but trustee Ken Gilsdorf said a storage facility doesn’t have to be a building. Richard Welling, a trustee who voted against the zoning change, said opponents of changing the zoning had a 30-day period to appeal the trustees’ decision but no one filed an appeal. The trustees stipulated that Mlynek be required to construct an earthen mound at least 4 feet high with trees along the perimeter of the western side of the property that abuts Bailey Road residences. Also, Mlynek would have to agree to not place an access road from Bailey to the parcels. Mlynek has six months to complete the mound.

In Oak Harbor, golfer gets fourth hole-in-one of summer It’s a privilege to help raise money for a special cause during a golf outing, but even nicer when things go your way on the links. For golfer Robert Robinson, things went his way during the GenoaBank 20th Annual Scholarship Golf Outing. His scramble teammates benefited, too. Robinson aced the 231-yard, par four, No. 5 at Oak Harbor Golf Club, using a 3-wood. Oak Harbor’s No. 5 is a 90-degree dogleg, and Robinson cut it by going over the trees, and it worked to perfection. He earned a skin for his team, Toledo Sports Network. It was Robinson’s fourth ace this summer, the other three coming on par threes. Two happened on consecutive days in one weekend. He now has 11 lifetime aces, but never before had four in one summer. Robinson’s four aces this year were, in order, on the 105-yard No. 6 at Quarry Ridge Golf Course in Ottawa Lake, Michigan, using an A-wedge; on the 193-yard No. 5 at Heatherdowns Country Club using a 4-iron; again on No. 6 at Quarry Ridge; and then at Oak Harbor. However, his ace on Oak Harbor’s par four also qualified it as an albatross, or double eagle, which can also include scoring a two on a par five — any score three under par on a single hole. Those are more rare than holes-in-one on par threes. According to the PGA, the most-quoted odds of making a hole-in-one are 13,000 to 1. The odds of making a double eagle have are at 6-million-to-1, although some think it might be closer to 1 million to 1. Robinson is a regular on the Great Lakes Golf Today Show, which airs Saturday mornings from 8-10 a.m. on 106.5 ESPN The Ticket. Cardinal Stritch graduate Mike Jameson of TSN and Creative Video Imagery is the host and producer of the show. Jameson said Robinson’s tee shot had so much power that when it hit a somewhat damp putting surface, it literally “tore up the green” before finding its way into the cup.

Behind the

Scenes

Golfer Robert Robinson with his four hole-inone balls from this summer. the foursome was Dave Truman and Mik Gonzales, also regular guests on the radio show. The team’s round did not start out well, Robinson said. “We were not ‘scrambling’ well and were only one under par through five (started on No. 18),” Robinson said. “Hole No. 5 was a 90-degree dogleg left. We got a ball in play, so I took a shot at going over the trees that guarded the hole. I hit my best three wood of the day and then we went looking for the ball. It was a very dewy day, so when balls rolled on the green, they left the telltale snail trails. “Mike got to the green first, and did not see the trails, so he looked in front and back of the hole. I looked as well, but before joining the guys to hit our seconds, I saw some substantial damage to the cup, in the direction from the tee. I stood over the flag and yelled, ‘Hey guys, anybody check the hole?’ Yep, there it was and this time the only property damage was to the front of the hole. Mike was so proud — you would

have thought that he had aced it.” Robinson calls these past few months “One crazy summer” or “How this ‘fella’ got his groove back.” “I’ve played golf since 1982 when a company-sponsored golf outing inspired me to get my first set, the Jack Nicklaus Golden Bears with a driver whose head was slightly bigger than my current 5-wood. I have had my share of personal and property damage through the years, and I have had some good years and bad years on the course,” Robinson said. “I can honestly say that I have never had a year like this, a year that has seen, with apologies to LeBron James, not one, not two, not three, but four holes in one plus a few near misses.” Robinson said he had near misses on No. 8 during a Tuesday men’s league at Crosswinds Golf Course in Perrysburg Township and on No. 10 at Whiteford Valley Golf Club in Ottawa Lake. However, like any other golfer, it took

Robinson a while to find his game. He first began golfing in 1982 while living in California. “From then until 2000, my game was the stuff of nightmares. No one and nothing was safe when I had a club in my hand and a ball on the ground,” Robinson said. “When I moved out here in 2000, I finally got serious about the game. I trained myself, and finally cobbled together a swing which forced the courts to drop the public nuisance charges against me. At least I knew I wouldn’t hit a drive between my legs again. Yes, that did happen. “Something strange also started to happen; I could spray the ball wide left and wide right — like a Cleveland Browns kicker on a bender – but every once in a while, I could square one up and make it go in the hole. I still have my first hole in one, it was such a blur that I failed to put the date on the ball. I did pick up the drinks, though…I swear, I think they called everyone in off the course for a drink. “The pattern continued through the 2000s into the 2010s — left, right, left, right, oops, how did that ace get in there? By 2013, I had piled up seven. At that point, an injury in a golf league and an increasing work schedule reduced my rounds to less than 10 a year, so it looked like I would be ‘stuck’ on seven — far more than a person of my meager talents deserved. “In December of last year, a health scare was a wake-up call to get out and get some exercise. I decided to get back into golf full force in 2018, so I signed up for my first league in years and picked up every swing training device and read every golf article online, hoping for a good year. I could not imagine anything like this.”

Newspaper people make a difference in Washington – and Ohio By Dennis Hetzel

Guest Editorial

I like the idea that National Newspaper Week and Great Books Week both happen Oct. 7-13. Journalism has been famously – and accurately – described as “the first rough draft of history.” The authors of great books must paint complete pictures from the rough sketches that journalists start. There are countless examples such as “The Best and the Brightest,” the late David Halberstam’s account of the politics and tragedy behind the war in Vietnam. Jack Shafer of Slate.com found a 1953 edition of “Public Administration Review” in which Phil Graham, the late publisher of the Washington Post, said this: “The inescapable hurry of the press inevitably means a certain degree of superficiality. It is neither within our power nor our province to be ultimately profound. We write 365 days a year the first rough draft of history, and that is a great task.” That remains true in today’s overheated America. At least we’ve been there before. Whether you’re talking about the

McCarthy Era, Vietnam, Watergate, the current era of Trump or other crisis moments in our history, there is no way to know the final outcomes while the story still unfolds. What we do know is the fierce criticism that journalists faced in the heat of such moments proved to be mainly unfounded in the judgment of history. Time needed to pass, more facts needed to come to light and people had to catch their breaths. The movies “Spotlight,” “The Post,” or “All the President’s Men” can give you a feel for what journalism looks like at its best. When I taught college journalism, I used a case study from “All the President’s Men” that discussed when the famed duo of Post reporters Woodward and Bernstein messed up. They reported that Hugh Sloan, a key figure in the Nixon reelection cam-

paign, had testified to the Watergate grand jury that top Nixon aide Bob Haldeman controlled a secret fund of campaign dollars used to engage in domestic spying and dirty tricks. That wasn’t true, and press secretary Ron Ziegler – the Sarah Sanders of his time – seized on it to discredit the Post. The error was this: Sloan would have testified that way, but the grand jury never asked him. Getting the gist right but not the details mortified the two reporters, as it should have. It was a forever reminder on the importance of precision reporting, especially when stakes are so high. Journalism isn’t always at its best, of course. Too much coverage today seems breathless, biased and overheated. (Are you listening CNN, MSBNC and Fox? Damn, I miss Walter Cronkite.) Too many self-proclaimed-but-not-really journalists don’t practice the standards I was taught as a young reporter and later as an editor. Still, I can comfortably predict that 20 years from now, most Americans will be grateful that the free press was around in these bizarre times that have started more arguments in my own circle of friends than I can count.

Closer to home, thousands of Ohio journalists and other employees of around 300 print and digital media outlets across the Buckeye State are working every day to cover and, yes, support their communities. They are flawed humans just as you are, but they care deeply about their families, their neighbors and where they live. Consider Greg Meyers, the circulation director at the Crescent-News in Defiance. He runs marathons, is a leader in the Defiance Baseball Association and serves as a Boy Scout pack leader. “The local community newspaper plays a vital role,” Greg says. “We need to embrace change, yet continue to serve the public with timely, accurate information that will engage readers for generations to come.” Truer words were never spoken. Please join me in thanking Greg and several thousand of your other Ohio newspaper neighbors and across America during National Newspaper Week.

Harmful algal blooms

Golden Reminder — sewage overflows big contributor Advice by Bryan Golden Fresh What are the odds? Country It doesn’t Air really matter

There is no question that nutrient contributions from agriculture are a piece of the water quality puzzle in Lake Erie. But, it is also a certainty that agriculture is not the only contributor. Earlier this year, www.sciencedaily. com reported research clearly linking harmful algal blooms in Florida’s St. Lucie Estuary and human waste. In a yearlong study, water samples provided multiple lines of evidence that human wastewater from septic led to high nitrogen concentrations in the estuary and the awful algal blooms. (Note, for the salt water in the estuary, nitrogen is the key nutrient for harmful algal blooms. In freshwater, the key nutrient is phosphorus). Human manure has significant quantities of both nutrients, to the tune of about 10 pounds of nitrogen and more than a pound of phosphorus per person per year. From www.sciencedaily.com: “It has long been thought that the algal blooms found in Lake Okeechobee, which are caused by pollution such as runoffs from farms, were solely responsible for driving the blooms and their toxins in the St. Lucie Estuary,” said Brian E. Lapointe, Ph.D., lead author of the study and a research professor at Florida Atlantic University Harbor Branch, who recently presented these findings at the ninth U.S. National Harmful Algal Bloom Conference. “We wanted to investigate the role of on-site septic systems, which have previously been overlooked.” Big rain events directly cause agricultural nutrient losses, but also continue to overwhelm connected stormwater and sewage systems and lead to overflows of diluted raw, unregulated, untreated sewage flowing into the rivers, streams and Lake Erie from urban centers. For example, on Aug. 7, 2018 Cleveland 19 News reported on Cleveland19.com: Tuesday night’s torrential rainfall caused an overflow of raw sewage and stormwater into Lake Erie. The Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District posted a public advisory urging swimmers, especially children, the elderly, and those with health conditions, to avoid entering the water at Edgewater Beach. Raw sewage began overflowing at the beach just before midnight on Monday and was confirmed by sewer district officials before 1 a.m. Tuesday morning. “Our region has experienced many strong storms in recent years, an ongoing trend that we will see more of in the future,” said Frank Greenland, Director of

Success defined To the editor: What is the meaning of success? Such a philosophical question hits real life when a family of moderate income must make choices to define its purpose beyond that of a price tag. Having attended several recent funerals, I am reminded that an investment portfolio and quality of kitchen cabinets rarely enters the discussion. Our true definition of success is whether or not the world is a better place for our having been here. Therefore, it seems that caring for those less fortunate, welcoming those from around the world who have faced horrors, protecting the planet for future generations, teaching and modeling honesty and integrity, and providing a beacon of hope represent a life well-lived. Do we educate our children only as a means to a paycheck or to better equip each of us to improve our world? Last year, I joined the campaign of Michael Galbraith, who is running for Congress in Ohio’s District 5, because his agenda represents my definition of the pursuit of true success in life. He and his wife, Ditte, have tirelessly knocked on doors, attended county fairs and parades, held numerous town hall gatherings, and above all, have cared to meet and to truly listen to constituents. He deserves our vote. Cecilia Johnson Toledo

Time for change? To the editor: Fifth District Congressman Bob Latta has traveled the region touting a bill he sponsored to stem the opioid epidemic. This is especially important since overdose deaths in Ohio are up by 20 percent over 2016, among the sharpest increases of all states. The package Latta refers to was designed to let as many Republican representatives as possible claim credit for doing

Watershed Programs with the NEORSD. “CSOs, along with flooding and streambank erosion, all impact water quality throughout our region. Fortunately, the Sewer District is developing a regional solution to manage these sizeable issues and protect our region’s greatest natural resource: Lake Erie.” The NEORD says the volume of sewage and stormwater overflows into Lake Erie has decreased from 9 billion gallons to 4.5 billion gallons. The sewer department’s improvements to Northeast Ohio’s infrastructure have helped with the combined sewer overflow discharges. As of Sept. 2017, Ohio had approximately 1,138 permitted Combined Sewer Overflows in 72 remaining communities ranging from small, rural villages to large metropolitan areas (including Cleveland and Toledo), according to the Ohio EPA. In many cases, efforts are underway to address the costly (and super gross) issue of diluted raw sewage dumping into the Lake Erie Watershed. The Toledo Waterways Initiative program, for example, is in the process of working on 45 separate projects over the course of 18 years at a total estimated cost of $527 million to eliminate 650 million gallons of untreated sewage from entering waterways per year by 2020. This is an 80% reduction from before the program started. This is great progress, but at time when a group called Toledoans for Safe Water has secured enough signatures to get a proposal on the 2018 fall election ballot that would give citizen groups legal standing to sue major polluters on behalf of Lake Erie, I wonder if these proactive, voluntary efforts are really enough. After all, we need clean water in Lake Erie NOW! To get an immediate improvement, maybe we should look into more regulations for the urban dwellers of Toledo, Cleveland and other CSO communities in the Lake Erie watershed. There are folks out there pushing for “Watershed in Distress” designations for agricultural areas, so maybe in serious situations (such as in Toledo and Cleveland) residents could be required to comply with the following:

Letters

• No outdoor human or pet nutrient applications between Dec. 15 and March 1 without prior agency approval; before and after these dates, applications of human or pet nutrients on frozen ground or ground covered in more than 1-inch of snow may occur only if removed, injected into the ground or incorporated within 24 hours of surface application. • No toilet flushing if the local weather forecast shows more than a 50% chance that precipitation would exceed one-half inch of rain in the 24 hours after the nutrient application (if it’s yellow let it mellow, if it’s brown put the lid down). • In case of a long stretch of inclement weather, any property owners must ensure a minimum of 120 days of manure storage and keep records of manure storage volumes. • Any single entity producing more than 350 tons or 150,000 gallons of nutrients per year must have an approved Nutrient Management Plan that addresses the methods, amount, form, and timing of all nutrient applications. Of course, this set of regulations will not be easy to pass through the legislature, so I suggest that Gov. Kasich put together an executive order to make it happen before the November elections. After all, he is the Governor and he can do whatever he wants. Plus, these measures will be a HUGE political victory, as they will undoubtedly eliminate harmful algal blooms in Lake Erie by 2019. The Kasich Administration executive order could really solve a number of problems from our urban CSO watershed neighbors. Imagine the implications for a Kasich presidential run with a clean Lake Erie! On second thought, this all seems very costly and onerous to actually enact (imagine the paperwork). Maybe, instead, we could give the proactive efforts like the Toledo Waterways Initiative and other wastewater handling projects in the Lake Erie Watershed a little time to work before we pursue such aggressive regulatory measures. It seems this monumental challenge may require a bit more patience. I guess the only question that remains is: if that Toledo ballot initiative passes this fall, will Toledoans for Safe Water be able to sue themselves?

something about this dire problem. Divvied up into 57 separate bills, the provisions focus on stopping excessive prescriptions for painkillers. Latta’s contribution involves a database for health care providers and central tracking system for federal funding. It’s fine to support such measures, but voters should know that what Congress gives with the right hand may be taken away with the left. Citizens called, wrote, and visited Latta’s office all last year, begging him to oppose Republican efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Latta appeared not to realize or care that the ACA mandates mental health care, which includes addiction treatment. He has voted to end such coverage dozens of times. Latta also sat by while funding for the Children’s Health Insurance Program expired. It was eventually restored, but imagine the stress for the parents of 9 million children who count on this program. Also of concern are the pre-existing health conditions—asthma, cancer, diabetes—that afflict so many Americans. The ACA provided our first assurance that these people could not be tossed off their insurance plans or priced out of the marketplace. If you are concerned, please visit the website of Michael Galbraith, Democrat for Congress. Support a change for our district. Mary C. Hoffsis Bowling Green

Unkept promise To the editor: USA Today reports that, thanks to tax cuts, the federal budget deficit is spiking. Already 21 percent above the level of 2017, it will rapidly surpass $1 trillion. Unlike the deficits we faced during the Great Recession, this crisis is the result of a

deliberate act that undercuts revenues for years to come. No concrete plan was made to reduce spending, but Republicans now aim to put Social Security and Medicare on the chopping block. Promises of rising wages and sufficient economic growth to contain the deficit show no sign of coming true. As one example, the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer sank $10 billion into stock buybacks to “celebrate” its tax cut with big bonuses. Soon after, they defunded research on Alzheimer’s and other diseases, laying off some 300 workers. New representation in Congress is essential to preserve our access to health care and secure retirement as deficits balloon. Here in Ohio’s Fifth District, Bob Latta is a legacy congressman. He refuses to meet with constituents outside carefully scripted scenarios. He votes as instructed by leadership, regardless of the opinions of ordinary people in the district. I personally talked with his office staff numerous times expressing my opposition to top-heavy tax cuts. I know that hundreds of others called and emailed, likewise urging Latta to take a broader, bipartisan approach. He ignored us all. We have an alternative to this stifling status quo. Michael Galbraith is running to represent us, to fight for the rights of working people and protect our Social Security and health care. I urge every voter in our district to visit his website and consider joining me in sending Galbraith to Congress. We cannot afford more giveaways to the wealthy few, while our deficit grows beyond measure. Anesa Miller Bowling Green Editor’s note. Miller is a volunteer communications liaison for the Galbraith campaign.

Have you ever decided against pursuing a goal because the odds were against you? Do your chances of success determine which path you will take? Is your assessment of your chances of succeeding based on the opinions of others? In reality, the odds don’t matter. Most great accomplishments occurred in spite of the odds. Sometimes they succeeded even when others thought there was no chance of success. Furthermore, every new invention and revolutionary discovery has occurred even though nothing like it had ever been done before. Prior to the founding of the United States of America in 1776, subjugation, oppression, and tyranny, had been the way of life for most people throughout history. A country had never before been founded based on the principles of freedom and individual liberty. Not only was the creation of America precedent setting, it’s success required that the rag tag coalition of farmers and townspeople, which comprised the colonial army, had to first defeat the British army, who at the time were the most powerful military force in the world. The birth of America is a perfect example of success in spite of zero odds of success. In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell spoke over the first working telephone which he had created. Prior to this date, there had never been a working telephone. So, the odds of creating a telephone were non-existent. Yet, in spite of this, Bell succeeded. Guglielmo Marconi transmitted the first wireless communication via radio waves in 1895. Before his invention, a wired connection was required for all communication. Many naysayers thought Marconi’s dream of wireless communication was a sign of derangement. Marconi is another perfect example of success in spite of the odds. As you can see, the odds don’t matter. What does make the difference is your desire, attitude, and determination. These factors combine to create an unstoppable force which has the power to overcome the odds. When you have a burning desire to reach your goal, the odds don’t matter. Your intense desire is the fuel necessary for overcoming whatever obstacles you may encounter. Wanting an objective badly enough propels you through adversity. An accompanying attitude that failure is not an option prevents you from giving up. If one approach doesn’t work as planned, you make adjustments, and keep going. This process is repeated as often as necessary until your objective is attained. The odds don’t matter. It’s your actions which make the difference. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www. BryanGolden.com or your bookstore.

Give cancer patients hope by donating blood with Red Cross October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month – the perfect time to give blood or platelets to support cancer patients and others. Anna Gwinnup, a loving wife, mother and grandmother, was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer in September 2017. Within weeks, it advanced to stage 2, forcing her to undergo a double mastectomy, chemotherapy and multiple surgeries, which required blood products. Though she was a blood donor prior to her diagnosis, Gwinnup now has a new passion for the cause. “I want to raise awareness about the need for blood to treat cancer,” she said. Cancer patients may need red blood cell or platelet transfusions during chemotherapy, surgery or treatment for complications. Donors of all blood types are needed to help ensure a sufficient supply for patients this fall, especially after Hurricane Florence and subsequent flooding forced the cancellation of more than 6,000 blood and platelet donations last month. Make an appointment to donate blood by downloading the free American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). As a thank-you, those who come to donate blood or platelets in October will automatically be entered to win one of five $500 gift cards redeemable at hundreds of merchants. Learn more at RedCrossBlood.org/GoForGoal. Upcoming blood donation opportunities include: • Oregon: Oct. 28, 8 a.m.-2 p.m., Christ United Methodist, 5757 Starr Ave. • Graytown: Oct. 21, noon-5 p.m., Zion United Methodist Church, 18045 W. William St. • Wood: Oct. 26, 7:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m., Wood County Hospital, 950 W. Wooster St. To make arrangements to donate, download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org or call 1-800RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an appointment or get more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass® to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive.

Kenny is the call center for NGH and speaks to cancer families with understanding. NGH helps cancer families save money on groceries so they can divert that money to copays and treatment expenses. Kenny recently had a below-the-knee amputation due to diabetic complications. Their financial resources have gone to Nightingales House, and they are struggling to gather the financial resources to meet his medical expenses. He receives disability insurance, which covers only a small part of their living expenses. Kenny and Lisa’s friends and family are organizing the fundraiser to benefit the family. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for kids. For info, call Kathy at 419-277-0813 or Amy at 419215-4659. Donations may be made at any Huntington Bank to account #02471257286.

Every day, millions of parents and guardians travel with children in their vehicles. While some children are buckled-in properly in the correct car seat for their age and size, most are not. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 46 percent of car seats are misused. Car crashes are a leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 13. Many times, deaths and injuries can be prevented by the proper use of car seats, boosters, and seat belts. Using car seats that are age and size appropriate is the best way to keep children safe. Below are tips on how to keep children safe in the car: • Keep children rear-facing as long as possible, up to the top height and weight allowed. • Once a child outgrows the rear-facing size limits, the child is ready to travel in a forwardfacing car seat with a harness and tether. • After outgrowing the forward-facing car seat, the child should be placed in booster seats until they’re the right size to use seat belts safely. • Register your car seat and booster seat with the manufacturer so you can be notified in the event of a recall. • Too often, parents move their children to the front seat before they should, which increases the risk of injury and death – even if they are buckled up. The safest place for all kids under the age of 13 is in the back seat. • Ensure children, regardless of age, are buckled up – every trip, every time. To view more information on car seat safety and locate a certified technician, visit nhtsa. gov/carseat.

In some cases, pre-existing heart conditions may guide the course of cancer care, or the cancer therapy itself can impact the heart and alter treatment plans.

portant part of the conversation that patients should have with their oncologist,” Mehta said. The interconnection doesn’t end when the cancer is gone. Mehta said long-term breast cancer survivors can develop heart problems after certain cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, radiation and targeted therapy. Survivors also have increased cardiovascular risk factors, and the statement points out that heart disease prevention and modification of cardiac risk factors is essential during and after breast cancer treatment. Over the last decade, the collaborative field of cardio-oncology has grown to provide the best cancer care without impacting heart health. The multi-disciplinary approach has led to new clinical methods to reduce the heart-related effects of cancer treatment. Mehta and her co-authors called for more emphasis on prevention before a particular treatment damages the heart. “Fortunately, with the ongoing advances in cancer treatment we are seeing improved survival of cancer patients. However, heart disease prior to, during or after cancer treatment can impact outcomes. We need to be successful in treating both cancer and heart disease,” Mehta said. “Additionally, we hope this paper drives even more interest in the field so we can continue to see the development of more training programs, research and guideline development in the field of cardio-oncology.”

A scientific statement issued by the American Heart Association underscores the commonalities between cardiovascular disease and breast cancer among women, and calls for more focus on research and specialized treatment where the diseases overlap. The statement, chaired by Dr. Laxmi Mehta, a cardiologist at The Ohio State University Ross Heart Hospital, is the first to compile the newest information on prevalence, shared risk factors and cardiotoxic effects of cancer therapy, as well as prevention and treatment of heart disease in breast cancer patients. It appears in the journal Circulation. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for women in the U.S. and globally. However, more women think breast cancer is the bigger threat. In many ways, the two diseases can intertwine. “Heart disease and breast cancer share common risk factors such as age, sedentary lifestyle and smoking,” said Mehta, who is also director of preventative cardiology and women’s cardiovascular health at Ohio State. “More importantly, we see that many of the same things that improve heart health (healthy diet, healthy weight, exercise, not smoking) can also reduce a woman’s risk for breast cancer.” Mehta said the use of hormone replacement therapy is another common risk factor for women. Studies have shown it can raise the risk of breast cancer and heart disease among certain groups of women, and is therefore a risk factor that can be modified. Two factors that can’t be changed are age and genetics. As women get older, their risk for breast cancer increases. The incidence of cardiovascular risk also increases with age, even more so with the onset of menopause. The most common heart-related side effect of cancer therapy is left ventricular dysfunction. Coronary artery disease, valve disease, arrhythmias and heart failure can also occur. Mehta and her co-authors said it’s vital for cardiologists and oncologists to work

Mercy Health announces new expanded EMS Division Mercy Health announced its new expanded Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Division, which will work with area Prehospital Emergency Service providers to ensure delivery of the most comprehensive emergency care. The Mercy Health EMS Division is comprised of five local EMS physicians who will help provide a team approach to protocols and standards of care throughout Northwest Ohio. Additionally, the physicians will provide 24/7 on-call telephone support to area EMS agencies. Working together with the EMS professionals in our region, these physicians will provide supervision and medical direction to first responders as well as expanded training opportunities. Specifically, Mercy Health will continue to work with the Northwest Ohio Emergency Medical Services Consortium, serving communities such as Defiance County, Sandusky County, Henry County, Wyandot County, Wood County, and Fulton County as well as multiple city, township and municipal agencies. The Division also supports local industry and commercial entities which require advanced emergency medical services, including Hollywood Casino, Materion Brush, and Toledo Refining Inc. “This is a game changer. Never in this region have we been in a position to offer more advanced and comprehensive EMS Medical Direction and education to the agencies we serve,” said Dr. Nick Sauber, director of Mercy Health Emergency Medical Services Division and Regional EMS Medical Director for Mercy Health - Toledo and TEAMHealth Northeast Group. “With Mercy Health’s capital and infrastructure support, physicians can be present in the communities we serve, providing direct medical care, supervising the men and women working on the front line, and bringing world class training directly to their firehouses or stations,” he added. “The depth and breadth of experience our physicians can offer, as well as the industry leading patient care already being practiced by these EMS professionals each and every day, creates a powerhouse that will con-

The work this group can now do will save lives and improve patient care, bottom line.” The new division was unveiled on the annual Emergency Medicine Resident EMS Day Sept. 12 at the Center for Emergency Preparedness at Owens Community College. Emergency Medicine residents from Mercy Health – St. Vincent Medical Center and the University of Toledo experienced real-life emergencies during EMS training day, which included multiple stations that give the doctors hands-on training in areas

such as hazardous materials situations, vehicle extractions, fire suppression and incident command leadership. “Mercy Health is committed to ensuring that everyone in the region receives the highest level of care in their time of need. This can only be accomplished through specifically trained medical professionals that are integrated with our first responders,” said Matt Sapara, vice president, Operations and Regional Development for Mercy Health – Toledo. On hand to celebrate announcement of the new division were area fire chiefs and

EMS leadership. Sandusky County EMS Director Jeff Jackson noted that in years past, EMS agencies tended not to collaborate. He expressed excitement that together with Mercy Health, agencies can work collaboratively to provide the best care in emergency situations throughout the region. “This is very exciting. It is phenomenal that agencies are now part of this consortium. Now we are all on the same team,” Jackson said. “With this group of doctors and the research, we will be an EMS powerhouse in Northwest Ohio.”

Understanding and overcoming road rage From the American Counseling Association

By Mircea Handru, MBA

The

Counseling Corner

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

...remind yourself that what is happening isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your fault...

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s streets and highways are more crowded than ever. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re driving almost anywhere these days youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re often encountering bad drivers, traffic jams and road construction. The stress and anger that go along with driving frustrations is a fairly common occurrence, but when they build to the point that you become an aggressive driver yourself, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Road rageâ&#x20AC;? is generally described as uncontrolled anger at the actions of another driver. In extreme cases, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more than simply being angry and upset. It can lead to aggressive and violent behavior behind the wheel, including intentionally hitting the car of the driver who has upset you, or getting out of your car to engage in a physical confrontation. In some cases the angry driver will have a weapon and will threaten or harm the other driver. Clearly any such out of control actions are illegal, dangerous and likely to cause harm to you and those around you. If you have experienced a form of out of control road rage, it is vital that you seek professional assistance. This is a condition that needs anger management help. A professional counselor has a variety of techniques to help someone understand and control such reactions. For most of us, however, the anger we feel behind the wheel doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t result in violent behavior but can lead to dangerous driving. You might find yourself cutting off others, tailgating, speeding, flashing your lights or honking your horn. All are signs of aggressive driving and dangerous as they are likely to provoke the other driver. And remember, none of those actions are going to change anything about how that other person drives. Instead, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for you to control your anger. Take a second to remind yourself that what is happening isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your fault and that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outside your control. Next, take action to relax yourself. Tune

in to something soothing and enjoyable on the radio. Take the time to slowly count to 10. Try concentrating on individual parts of your body and consciously think about relaxing your muscles. When your anger controls you, then you become less alert in relation to your driving and traffic situations that might occur suddenly. And if anger while driving happens frequently, even if not escalating to road rage, and you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t control it, consider learning about relaxation training or an anger management course.

Ohio Issue 1 To Reduce Penalties for Crimes of Obtaining, Possessing, and Using Illegal Drugs, is on the ballot as an initiated constitutional amendment on Nov. 6. The Mental Health and Recovery Services Board of Seneca, Sandusky and Wyandot Counties firmly believes that non-violent individuals with a substance-use disorder are better served through treatment instead of incarceration. This is particularly true for marginalized populations who are overrepresented in Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prisons and often go unserved. We oppose this constitutional amendment because it does not address the problem as intended. We implore the Ohio General Assembly to immediately bring together a bi-partisan coalition of concerned Ohioans to take action to address these issues through a legislative solution.

Free agent with every policy. Each October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, women are reminded to schedule something they may be avoiding: a mammogram. One of the top reasons women put off the screenings is because of pain or discomfort they’ve experienced in the past. While recent technological improvements should help, there are some simple things women can do to make themselves more comfortable during a mammogram. Judy Capadagli, a registered technologist in radiology and mammography at the Stefanie Spielman Comprehensive Breast Cancer Center at OSUCCC- James, offers these five tips: • Your trunk and feet should face forward - Turn only your head while the rest of your body faces forward. Turning your

hips and feet can lead to pain in your breasts and lower back. • Make your appointment for when your breasts are least tender - Avoid scheduling your mammogram just before or during your period when your breasts may be tender. • Relax - Take slow, deep breaths to reduce tension in your body which should lessen any pain you may experience. • Speak up - Let your tech know if something hurts or doesn’t feel right. Chances are they’ll be accommodating in order to get the best results for everyone. • Be patient if you have breast implants - Women who have implants need double the number of images. This takes time, but newer machines make the process more comfortable.

40th Annual

Oak Harbor Apple Festival Saturday, October 13th Time 9:00 AM

Adopting prevention strategies may help men and women lower their cancer risk.

Choices can decrease risk The United Nations estimates that the world is home to 7.6 billion people. None of those people, regardless of their ethnicity, race or gender, are immune to cancer. According to the World Health Organization, cancer is the second-leading cause of death across the globe. Responsible for nearly nine million deaths in 2015, cancer is a formidable foe but one that can be defeated. For example, the SEER Cancer Statistics Review released in spring of 2018 indicated that cancer death rates among women decreased by 1.4 percent between 2006 and 2015. Even more encouraging is the decline in breast cancer death rates, which the American Cancer Society says decreased by 39 percent between 1989 and 2015. Various factors have contributed to the decline in cancer death rates. While advancements in treatment protocols and education programs that have emphasized the importance of cancer screenings have had profound impacts, individuals avoiding unhealthy lifestyle choices also has made a difference in reversing cancer death rates. Research into cancer prevention is ongoing, but the following are some healthy lifestyle choices that may help people reduce their cancer risk. • Avoid tobacco. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reports that cigarette smoking kills almost half a million people in America alone each year. Nearly 10 percent of those deaths occur due to exposure to secondhand smoke. Lung cancer is not the only type of cancer that smoking has been linked to, as the Mayo Clinic notes smoking also has been connected to cancers of the mouth, throat, larynx, pancreas, bladder, cervix, and kidney. By avoiding or quitting tobacco, men and women can reduce their own cancer

risk and reduce the likelihood that their nonsmoking loved ones will develop cancer related to secondhand smoke. • Eat right. The WHO notes that many countries have implemented programs encouraging the consumption of five or more portions of fruits and vegetables per day. Those programs are a result of studies showing the potential relationship between a healthy diet and a reduced risk of cancer. For example, the National Cancer Institute says studies conducted on animals have shown that antioxidants, which can be found in various fruits and vegetables, can prevent the type of cell damage associated with the development of cancer. • Protect skin from the sun. In 2018, the American Cancer Society notes that more people are diagnosed with skin cancer in the United States each year than all other cancers combined. While overexposure to the sun is not the only way a person can develop skin cancer, protecting skin from the sun is a great way for people to significantly reduce their risk for the disease. The Mayo Clinic recommends people avoid the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun’s rays are strongest. People also should apply and reapply generous amounts of sunscreen when spending time outdoors. • Speak with a physician about immunizations. The Mayo Clinic notes that protecting oneself against certain viral infections also may help men and women reduce their cancer risk. For example, hepatitis B has been linked to liver cancer. Certain people, including those who are sexually active but not monogamous, intravenous drug users and health care or public safety workers who may be exposed to infected blood or body fluids, are at greater risk of hepatitis B than others, and such people should speak with their physicians about being vaccinated.

Voting is your right, no matter where you live By Erin Pettegrew Acting State Long-Term Care Ombudsman On Tuesday, Nov. 6, Ohio will hold a statewide general election. Voting is a fundamental right of all American adults regardless of where you live. Federal and state laws ensure long-term care residents certain rights, including the right to vote. Ohio and many other states also grant longterm care residents the right to vote in their facility, receive assistance to vote and request certain accommodations. A notable exception is that individuals that have been determined by a court to be incompetent are not allowed to vote. Ohio requires every polling location to have a voting machine that is accessible to individuals with disabilities. These machines include features like audio ballots, Braille touch pads, large print, text-zoom features, and height and tilt adjustments on the screens. Nursing home residents who are able to travel to a polling place should tell poll workers if they require an accessible voting system. If nursing home residents are unable to leave their homes to vote, the county board of elections can deliver a ballot to them. Two election officials of different political parties will deliver the ballot, assist with filling it out, if needed, and return the ballot

to the board of elections. Contact your local board of elections for more information about this option. Ohioans who need help to vote because of a disability may receive assistance from someone of their choice, such as family members and friends, or election precinct officials (again, one each from two political parties). However, residents cannot receive help to vote from a candidate whose name appears on the ballot and certain other people prohibited by law. Finally, every Ohio voter must have identification to vote. Acceptable forms of ID include an Ohio driver’s license, military ID or a current utility bill with the voter’s name and address on it. The Secretary of State’s website, www.MyOhioVote.com, lists additional forms of identification that can be used, as well as general information about the upcoming statewide election. The registration deadline to vote in the Nov. 6 general election is Tuesday, Oct. 9. The ability to express yourself and have a say in your government is a right given to all Americans. Ohioans who live in nursing homes, and their family members and friends, can learn more about this and other rights they have as residents by connecting with the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman at www.ombudsman.ohio.gov or 1-800-282-1206.

Venier, McQueary respond to Guerrero’s challenge By Ryan Wronkowicz and J. Patrick Eaken sports@presspublications.com With a roster void of any seniors, Lourdes University womens golf is relying on a youthful roster. The youth movement includes two local underclassmen, junior Jenne’ Venier (Eastwood), who posted a round of 83 as a sophomore, and Chayce McQueary (Genoa), who began her sophomore year with the Gray Wolves. Last week, both came through for the Gray Wolves. Playing one final round before Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference jamborees begin, Lourdes earned a third place finish at the Cleary Invitational held at Chemung Hills Golf Club in Howell, Mich. The Gray Wolves posted a round of 379, 20 shots ahead of fourth place Cornerstone and 21 strokes in back of second place Siena Heights in the field of six schools. Aquinas won the tournament with a score of 354, four shots ahead of the Saints. Venier led the way for the Gray Wolves with a round of 90, finishing in a seventh place overall. McQueary was one place in back of Venier, firing a collegiate-best round 91 on the 6,097-yard, par-72 course. “We played pretty well at times,” Lourdes coach Gil Guerrero (Waite) said. “I know we are capable of shooting much lower. We need a little more work on our short game and iron play.” Lourdes was selected to finish in seventh place for in the WHAC. Guerrero returns seven players from last year’s squad, and has added three freshmen to the roster for this year’s campaign. Guerrero is in his fifth season at the helm of the Gray Wolves, looking to build upon a seventh place finish in the WHAC one season ago. With all of the youth on this year’s roster, Guerrero says he has been looking for players to step up and earn spots in the lineup and Venier and McQueary were the two who responded. He says if the returnees can show continued improvement

Chayce McQueary (LU Athletics)

as they have in the past, and the newcomers are able to make an impact, the Gray Wolves could finish well in the upcoming league meet. Taking to the course for the first time this season, Lourdes finished in fourth place at the Trine Kickoff Classic held at Zollner Golf Course in Angola, Ind. The Gray Wolves posted a team total of 388, finishing four strokes ahead of WolverineHoosier Athletic Conference foe Cleary. “I thought today was a pretty good effort for the first tournament of the season,”

Guerrero said. “We need to work some more on our short game. We missed a lot of short putts and easy chips, but overall it was an excellent effort.” Venier shot a round of 94, paced by an opening nine 44, and finished 15th overall and McQueary rounded out the scoring for the Gray Wolves with a 104. Lourdes posted a score of 394 to finish in fifth place on a hot Tuesday afternoon at the Jon P. Spiess Memorial at Eagle Rock Golf Club in Defiance. The Gray Wolves finished 19 strokes ahead of sixth place

Rochester (Mich.) in the field of eight schools. “The heat really took its toll on us today,” Guerrero said. “I was so happy to get this round in with no major problems. The ladies did a great job of staying hydrated. I thought we played pretty well despite the conditions.” McQueary shot 99 on the 5,772-yard, par-71 layout. Steady rains led to soggy course conditions, and forced the cancellation of the final round of the Defiance Invitational at White Pines Golf Course in Swanton. The round was not made up and the event was turned into an 18-hole tournament. Lourdes finished in sixth place in the 10team event, posting an opening round 377. Individually, Venier led the Gray Wolves with an 84, tying for eighth place. At the Heidelberg Invitational, Lourdes improved by 22 shots from round one to round two, and moved up one spot in the final standings to finish in ninth place at Mohawk Golf and Country Club in Tiffin. The Gray Wolves fired a final round 376 to finish at 774, jumping Tiffin in the final standings, finishing 13 shots in front of the Dragons. Lourdes was just three strokes in back of eighth place Hanover. “We played much better today than we did yesterday,” Guerrero said after the meet ended. “The weather cooperated today and we played more like we are capable of. We still have a lot of work to do if we want to finish in the top-seven in the WHAC.” Venier led the Gray Wolves in the final day with a round of 92, finishing the tournament at 199. McQueary added a round of 94, her season’s best, to finish at 195 on the 5,933-yard, par-73 course. Lourdes earned a fourth place finish after shooting a round of 385 as the Gray Wolves hosted the Lourdes Invitational at The Legacy Golf Club in Ottawa Lake, Michigan. Skyler Henry (Swartz Creek, Mich.) and Lydia Quinn (Bloomington South, Ind.) led the way for Lourdes, each firing a round of 94, while McQueary was one shot behind them after carding a 95.

Undefeated, ranked Eastwood exceeds expectations By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Eastwood girls soccer was expecting to have a good year, but not many thought it would be this good. Eastwood is 13-0, has already won a Northern Buckeye Conference championship and is ranked seventh in the state in the Division III coaches poll. “With a lot seniors going out, I knew we’d have a good year but I wasn’t 100 percent sure how well. We have a really great team with good energy and I think that is really helping us. We have a positive outlook going into games,” said senior midfielder and co-captain Hannah Owens, who has four goals this season. Coach Megan Rutherford added, “We thought we were going to be successful this season. Undefeated? I guess we didn’t think about that because we’ve just been taking it one game at a time. We knew we were going to win a lot of games.” Eastwood has scored 80 goals, allowed only 12 and has recorded six shutouts. The Eagles, 9-0 in the NBC, clinched the league title when Genoa lost to Woodmore, 4-2, on Sept. 29. “We were excited for sure, but we’re looking for bigger things now,” Owens said. “I think we can’t take any games lightly anymore, especially going into tournaments. Every game we have to be prepared, focused and ready to go.” Rutherford is most proud of her team’s 2-1 and 8-4 wins over Genoa (9-4-1). “The first win, I almost liked better than the more recent 8-4 win because that was the only time this season that they’ve been behind in a game. We went down 1-0 off a set piece goal, and I just liked watching them respond and getting that comeback win at home,” Rutherford said. “The win at Genoa, when they tied it 3-3, I knew we were going to come back and win the game. It’s just because they work so hard. They are gritty and they hate losing. I was pretty confident that we would come back and steal away the win again.” The team is led in scoring by three freshmen — midfielder/forward Kenna

At left, Eastwood freshman midfielder/forward Kenna Souder (20) fights off a Genoa defender and at right, Eastwood senior midfielder Hannah Owens pushes downfield in a win over the Comets. (Press photos by Russ Lytle/Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP) Souder has a team-leading 23 goals and eight assists, midfielder/forward Aubrey Haas has 13 goals and five assists and midfielder Kaylynn Simon has two goals and eight assists. Junior midfielder/forward Reagan Delgado has eight goals and four assists. “I think we are really good offensively this year. We’re really good at getting downfield and working it around and we’re better at using everyone instead of just certain players,” Owens said. Rutherford added, “The front three with Reagan Delgado, Aubrey Haas, and Kenna Souder are working really well together. They are connecting really well, and our center midfielders are really solid.

They’re great getting the ball into the right spaces for the front three to score goals.” Rutherford is proud of the way the freshmen and upperclassmen have worked together. “They are a really good group,” Rutherford said. “The freshmen that came in are really talented and the upperclassmen did really well allowing them to come in and be successful. You know, sometimes you have the upperclassmen who kind of want to shut it down so they don’t lose their starting spot. Our upperclassmen have been the opposite. They’ve been supportive and just allowed our team to really come together, play really well together — freshmen with seniors.”

The defense has been solid, too. Sophomore goalkeeper Jaylee Sounder has a 76 percent ratio with 32 saves. The Eagles’ defense shut out Lake (3-0 and 6-0), Bowling Green (4-0), Van Buren (10-0), Woodmore (1-0), and Otsego (11-0). Rutherford says this is a team that does all the intangibles well, too. Some of them are things you can’t coach, she adds. “They are a very competitive group. They beat each other up in practice. We don’t have to remind them to go hard, ever. They work hard in every drill,” Rutherford said. “Our leadership and I guess as a whole, it’s our work ethic and our attitude. They work really hard and have a great attitude every day.”

Eastwood facing Woodmore with playoffs in mind By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Eastwood has built a successful football program that’s based on running the ball and playing good defense, and this year is no different. One year removed from reaching the Division V state championship game, the Eagles may be challenged to even get into the playoffs this year. They have to finish the regular season strong to have another shot at a playoff run. The Eagles started the season 4-2 and 2-1 in the Northern Buckeye Conference, although they are three points away from being undefeated. Eastwood’s two losses were to Ottawa-Glandorf (21-19) and Rossford (35-34). Heading into week seven, the Eagles found themselves ranked 14th in the Division V, Region 18 standings with 5.183 points. That is less than two points behind the eighth place team, Archbold, which has 6.717 points. But with a schedule that still includes Genoa (6-0) and Lake (4-2) still looming, Eastwood has a chance to gain valuable computer points. “I think that we’ve progressed the way that we thought we would. Obviously, the two losses — we were in those games. We knew that we had a tough schedule and that the league would be really good. We knew there would be some tough games,” said Eastwood coach Craig Rutherford. “I feel like we’re playing really well right now and I think the things we’re trying to do, we do really well. We’ve been happy overall.”

GAME OF THE WEEK NBC Showdown Eastwood Eagles @ Woodmore Wildcats Friday, October 12 7 p.m.

In the Eagles’ 42-16 win over Fostoria, Eastwood ran for 344 rushing yards. Jaden Rayford ran 20 times for 187 yards and two touchdowns and Justin Pickerel helped pace the attack with 16 carries for 105 yards and three scores. The week before, in the 35-34 loss to Rossford, the offense accumulated 372 rushing yards with Pickerel leading the way (37 carries, 236 yards, 3 TDs) and Ceyleon Damron (19 carries, 126 yards, 2 TD) contributing as well. Rayford, who is averaging over 10 yards per carry, did not play because of concussion protocol, the coaches said. Still, Rayford leads the team, having carried the ball 74 times for 779 yards and seven touchdowns, followed by Pickerel (118 carries, 715 yards, 11 TD) and Damron (51 carries, 391 yards, 7 TD). It’s a testament to the offensive line that the rushing attack has been so potent this season, especially when you consider Eastwood rarely passes and opposing

defenses pretty much know what is coming. “Obviously, with what we do, the offensive line is critical. Those guys have put in a lot of work in the weight room, but also in the way that they watch film and the way they practice. We don’t have a real big offensive line. They’re just smart and they know where to be and they play really hard,” said Rutherford. “Our three backs can all do some things a little bit better — they all have their strengths, but all three of them run the ball hard and they can all catch the ball out of the backfield. But most importantly, they block hard for each other. In our offense, that’s critical. They’re excited for each other when they score the touchdown. It’s a team game on offense.” The Eastwood defense is holding most opponents in check, except for its hiccup against Rossford. The Eagles are allowing an average of 12.6 points per game. The problem against Rossford was stopping quarterback Kyle Kromenacker, who is a threat in the passing and running game, but Rutherford likes what he sees developing and hopes it can continue through the remaining schedule. “I don’t think we’re real big or real fast on defense, but when we make plays, it’s because guys have prepared well during the week,” said Rutherford. “They like to get out and hit, and in high school football, that’s one of the most important things.” Eastwood heads to winless Woodmore this Friday. The Wildcats have a young team, but despite the record, they have been shown an ability to be competitive and are working to gain valuable experience for the future.

In their sixth game, a 45-21 loss to Otsego, Woodmore quarterback Aaron Sandrock accounted for two touchdowns — one via the rush and one via the pass. Taityn Rollins caught the touchdown pass and D.J. Melter also scored on a touchdown run. “We’re struggling right now and yet we have to keep doing the right thing and keep plugging away,” Woodmore coach Lou Bosh said. “Each individual has to get better. We have to keep getting better at what we do on offense and defense. We’re young, and that’s huge — we saw that last week with Otsego. “Otsego at one point in the game, took its starters off the field and we kept our starters, who are sophomores and juniors, out there. We fared fairly well — we did a pretty good job. We struggled going up against the older kids and that’s understandable but we keep staying positive, keep trying to learn, keep trying to build, trying to make the most of this year. “We’re focused on little goals, little things to take that next step forward, to keep getting better. I want to see them accomplish those goals in each game. I know that we can look forward to it each week so that we can say we’re getting better and then seeing it on film,” Bosh continued. Bosh says the Wildcats will need to eliminate mistakes if they want to keep the Eagles’ rushing attack in check. “Number one, you’ve got to tackle, so we’ve got to become better tacklers, execute our assignments and give a full effort. There has to be effort, attitude, toughness and (we have to) keep playing,” said Bosh. “We can get kids to the point of attack and line them up, and yet, in the end, they have to go make that tackle.”

Rockets’ strength, size hard to match in the trenches By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com For a Division V team, size-wise, Oak Harbor features an offensive line that can make a lot of D-I programs blush. The Rockets, coached by Mike May, average 263 pounds tackle to tackle, starting with 5-foot-11, 275-pound right guard Cole Roob. The senior, a three-year starter who also stars at defensive tackle, is the team’s strongest player. “He’s our leader up front, on the offensive and defensive lines,” May said of Roob, who earned first-team All-Sandusky Bay Conference honors on offense and defense last year. “He worked extremely hard in the weight room in the offseason. As good as he is on offense, he’s probably a better defensive player. He has a natural ability to get off blocks and use his hands and leverage.” Roob anchors an offensive line that includes senior left tackle Cole Heffernan (61, 255), senior center Austin Martikan (5-9, 250), junior left guard Reece Laughlin (6-1, 260) and junior right tackle Parker Smith (6-2, 275). Heffernan, Martikan and Smith are all first-year starters. Oak Harbor went into Friday’s game against visiting Huron with a 5-1 record, including 1-0 in the SBC Bay Division. The Rockets had outscored their six opponents by a 178-51 margin, including last week’s 38-0 rout of Vermilion. “Parker hasn’t played since his freshman year,” Roob said. “He came back from knee surgery his freshman year and last year. It’s mid-season, and now that we’re getting into it, the guys understand things better and they have a better concept of the speed of the varsity game. They’ve really stepped up and done a good job. We definitely trust them.” Because of injuries, May put Roob in at fullback in last year’s season finale against Port Clinton. Roob, who played at 240 pounds last fall, did not emerge unscathed. He suffered a cracked femur to his right leg and also tore the meniscus, ACL and MCL in the same leg. “It happened on a freak tackle and it

Oak Harbor 5-foot11, 275 pound senior right guard Cole Roob, a threeyear starter and first team All-Sandusky Bay Conference selection. (Press photo by Laura Bolander) just cracked everything,” Roob said. “I was running and went to make a cut. A kid dove at my legs from the outside and put my knee on the ground. It was not a good

feeling. I heard a pop and then I just felt extreme pain.” Roob said he was determined not to let the leg injury derail his senior season.

“It was my No. 1 priority,’ he said. “I did a lot of physical therapy and hard work. I went to winter lifting after my therapy. I was walking by Dec. 24, and I had surgery the day before Thanksgiving. I was definitely lucky and blessed. A lot of football guys gave me a lot of motivation and gave me the courage and strength I needed.” May praised the effectiveness of the other starters on the offensive line, as well as backups Ronnie Gonzalez, a junior, and sophomore Aiden Hall. Gonzalez can play both guard positions, and Hall plays center. “Cole Heffernan worked hard on the jayvee team the last couple years and put in a lot of time in the weight room,” May said. “So far he’s having a great year for us. Austin would have played last year, but he had a knee injury and missed the entire year. We switched our offense a little bit, where we committed to the shotgun and we’re spreading it out more. Austin has been consistent with his snaps and has been a very consistent player.” Laughlin, a second-year starter, “is athletic for a big guy and he moves really well,” according to May. “He’s a strong kid,” May said. “That’s one thing with all those guys up front, they are all strong kids. Reece has been consistent and he’s a tough kid who plays hard all the time. Smith broke his leg last season during warmups with the jayvee team and missed his entire sophomore season. “Him coming back has been a huge plus for us,” May said. “A big question mark coming in was the health of our starters. Depth was a huge concern. Ronnie Gonzalez has been a pleasant surprise. He practices so well that we want to get him on the field. Aiden Hall isn’t very big (57, 160), but he’s a good technician. We feel very good about putting him in there if we have an injury.” Roob, who wants to play college football, gives the Rockets’ offensive line a B-plus grade this season. “We’re making little mistakes,” he said, “but we know what we have to do. We’re still a little sloppy, but I’ll give us a potential grade of A or A-plus. We can step up and go that extra mile.”

Under Owens, Gibsonburg’s line finds its ‘mojo’ again By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Glenn Owens never had any intention of coaching again after last season. Owens, an assistant football coach at Eastwood since 2007, told the coaches there that he planned to take some time off from coaching after last season. He wanted to watch his son, Cole, play sports in the Gibsonburg school district. “I knew I would be done when he got in the seventh grade,” Owens said. “I had no intention of coaching. I was going to watch my son play.” Things changed, however, when Gibsonburg hired Mike Lee as its new head coach. “He asked me to come back, and I thought it was the perfect time,” said Owens, an assistant coach with the Golden Bears from 1993-2002 and their head coach from 2003-05. Lee took over a program that ran a spread offense, but that changed when Owens hopped aboard. Owens, who coached the offensive line at Eastwood, switched Gibsonburg to a wing-T offense and Lee didn’t argue. Owens coaches the offensive line and also calls the plays on game night. “He’s the wing-T guru,” Lee said. “When I got him on board, I wasn’t going to re-invent the wheel and have him learn something new when he already had it down.” Junior right tackle Jake Foster, who missed all of last season with an elbow injury, said it didn’t take that long for the offensive line to pick up the basic blocking concepts Owens was teaching them. “It was a new offense, from a spread to the wing-T,” Foster said. “There’s still some little stuff we’re learning along the way, like how to step differently or block differently that will help you mentally. The coaches have been great and helped us out a ton. Glenn is a great line coach. It was difficult at first, learning all new plays, different names and blocking schemes, but it was good. It’s fun to block. You keep pounding and pounding every play.” Six weeks into the season, the Golden Bears are 5-1 and 3-0 in the Sandusky Bay Conference River Division. Their lone loss (16-0) was to unbeaten Mohawk in game three, and they have outscored their opponents by a 177-73 margin. Gibsonburg

The Bears have completed just 10 passes this season, but they average 29.9 yards per catch. “It’s been a process,” Owens said. “We’re finally starting to get the fine tuning of (the wing-T). It took us several weeks to actually get some of the ideas down pat. We could run the plays, but for them to understand blocking schemes and how to adjust during games, it’s been a work in progress. We started talking about it the last week of July, and I think they were receptive. In the past few weeks, they see how good we can be running it.” Owens said Foster, who also starts on the defensive line, has adjusted to his blocking assignments particularly well. “He’s starting to get the idea,” Owens said, “and he’s probably the better athlete of all of the (linemen). He’s able to do some

things for us when we need him to. When I took this job, he was going to be the tight end, but we had to move him from tight end to tackle.” Foster’s teammates on the line include 6-foot-4, 330-pound junior left tackle Andrew Farris, senior right guard Nick Hade, junior left guard Hunter Smith, sophomore center Eric Schlea and senior tight end Andrew Milton. “All six of them are very smart,” Lee said. “They pick things up quickly. Jake is very physical. He gets after it. With anything new, you’re going to make mistakes, but they shrug it off and move on and they know the next play’s going to be better. “Andrew Farris is physical and has a big presence. He’s still working on technique and doing a great job. With Nick being a senior, we weren’t sure how things were going to go with him. He was in

another system for three years and he’s picked it up really well. He’s pretty quick, too. Hunter is very physical and reads well on the run, and Eric kind of won the job because he’s a smart kid and he picked up things quickly.” Lee added that Milton has played well after being moved from receiver to tight end this season. “He worked hard in the weight room and got the first shot (at tight end),” Lee said. “He’s never given up his position.” Foster said Schlea has been a surprise with how well he has played this season. “Going in, it was kind of iffy who our center would be,” Foster said. “Eric gets the job done. We all get the job done. We don’t stand out too much, but we work well together. At the beginning it was tough learning a whole new offense, but we’ve meshed pretty well together. It wasn’t surprising.”
