REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL candidate, former Massachu-setts Gov. Mitt Romney listens to Mike Rowe, host of televi-sion show “Dirty Jobs” during a campaign stop at AmericanSpring Wire, Wednesday in Bedford Heights.

Battling it out in OhioObama, Romney fight for voters

BY STEVE PEOPLESThe Associated Press

WESTERVILLE (AP) —Slipping in states that couldsink his presidential bid, Re-publican Mitt Romney de-clared Wednesday that “I careabout the people of America”and can do more than Presi-dent Barack Obama to im-

prove their lives. In an all-dayOhio duel, Obama scoffed thata challenger who calls half thenation “victims” was unlikelyto be of much help.Romney’s approach re-

flected what he is up against: awidening Obama lead in pollsin key states such as Ohio, thebacklash from a leaked videoin which he disparages Obama

supporters as government-de-pendent people who see them-selves as victims, and acampaign imperative to makehis policy plans more plain.With under six weeks to go,

and just one week before thefirst big debate, Obama’s cam-paign reveled in the latest pub-lic polling — but tried to crushany sense of overconfidence. “If

we need to pass out horseblinders to all of our staff, wewill do that,” said campaignspokeswoman Jen Psaki.The day’s setting was Ohio,

where Obama’s momentumhas seemed to be growing. It’salso a state no Republican haswon the White House withoutcarrying.

A much-loved, much respectedformer Sidney City Schools super-intendent has died in Mercer Is-land, Wash.Roger C. McGee, 88, passed

away Saturday.People he worked with in Sid-

high praise for their former col-league.“Roger McGee is an icon in the

Sidney City School District,” saidcurrent Superintendent JohnScheu. “He set the standard forother superintendents to followwith his integrity, honesty, workethic, and commitment to SidneyCity Schools. He was quite possi-bly the most revered and respectedschool administrator Sidney hasever had — at least since the time

he became superintendent. Hehired me to begin my teaching ca-reer in Sidney in 1972, as a highschool social studies teacher andJV basketball coach. When I firstapplied for an administrative jobin Sidney and was not selected, hemade a point to encourage me tonot give up; I had a future in Sid-ney; and there would be somethingeventually open; and the year afterhe left, I became an assistant prin-

‘Moon River’crooner dies

BY JIM SALTERThe Associated Press

BRANSON, Mo. (AP)— For the older — OK,squarer— side of the gen-eration gap, AndyWilliams was part of thesoundtrack of the 1960sand ’70s,with easy-listen-ing hits like “MoonRiver,”the “Love Story” themeand “The MostWonderfulTime of theYear” fromhisbeloved Christmas TVspecials.

The singer known forhis wholesome, middle-America appeal was theantithesis of the counter-culture.

“The old cliche saysthat if you can rememberthe 1960s, you weren’tthere,” Williams once re-called. “Well, I was thereall right, but my memoryof them is blurred — notby any drugs I took but bythe relentless pace of theschedule I set myself.”

The 84-year-old enter-tainer, who died Tuesdaynight at his Bransonhome following a year-long battle with bladdercancer, outlasted many ofthe decade’s rock starsand fellow crooners suchas Frank Sinatra andPerry Como.He remainedon the charts into the1970s and continued toperform into his 80s.

Williams became amajor star in 1956, thesame year as Elvis Pres-ley, with the Sinatra-likeswing number “CanadianSunset.” For a time, hewas pushed into suchPresley imitations as“Lips ofWine”and theNo.1 smash “Butterfly.”

But he mostly stuck towhat he called his “nat-ural style” and kept it upthroughout his career. In1970, when even Sinatrahad temporarily retired,Williams was in the top10 with the theme from“Love Story,” the Oscar-winning tearjerker. Hehad 18 gold records, threeplatinum and fiveGrammy award nomina-tions.

Williams was also thefirst host of the liveGrammy awards telecastand hosted the show forseven consecutive years,beginning in 1971.

Movie songs became aspecialty, including hissignature “Moon River.”The longing Johnny Mer-cer-HenryMancini balladwas his most famoussong, even though henever released it as a sin-gle because his recordcompany feared suchlines as “my huckleberryfriend”were too confusingand old-fashioned forteens.

The song was first per-formed by Audrey Hep-burn in the cherished1961 film “Breakfast atTiffany’s,” but Mancinithought “Moon River”ideal for Williams, whorecorded it in “prettymuch one take” and also

sang it at the 1962 Acad-emy Awards. Although“MoonRiver”was coveredby countless artists andbecame a hit single forJerry Butler, Williamsmade the song his per-sonal brand. In fact, he in-sisted on it.

“When I hear anybodyelse sing it, it’s all I can todo stop myself fromshouting at the televisionscreen, ‘No! That’s mysong!’” Williams wrote inhis 2009 memoir titled,fittingly, “Moon River andMe.”

At a Wednesday mati-nee at Williams’ MoonRiverTheatre in Branson,a performer told thecrowd that Williamswould have wanted theshow to go on, and it did.The first show after hisdeath included a movingvideo of him performing“Can’t Take My Eyes Offof You.”

“It was very emotional,very sad,” said BarbaraCox of Atlanta, who cameto Branson on vacation.“We’ve lost a great man.”

Because of illness,Williams had not per-formed in severalmonths.

He had been a con-stant presence on televi-sion with “The AndyWilliams Show,” whichlasted in various formatsthrough the 1960s andinto 1971. It won threeEmmys and featuredWilliams alternately per-forming his stable of hitsand bantering with gueststars.

It was on that showthat Williams — wholaunched his own careeras part of an all-brotherquartet — introduced theworld to another clean-cut act— the original foursingingOsmondBrothersof Utah. Four decadeslater, the Osmonds andWilliams would findthemselves in close prox-imity again, sharingWilliams’ theater inBranson.

Williams did booksome rock and soul acts,including the Beach Boys,the Temptations andSmokeyRobinson.On oneshow, in 1970, Williamssang “Heaven Help UsAll” with Ray Charles,Mama Cass and a then-little knownElton John, avision to Williams in hisrhinestone glasses andblack cape. But Williamsliked him and his break-through hit “Your Song”enough to record it him-self.

For many families,Williams and his musicwere a holiday tradition.His annual Christmasspecials continued longafter his show ended, fea-turing Williams dressedin colorful sweaterssinging favorites that al-most always included“The Most WonderfulTime of the Year,” a songwritten for Williams thatbecame a holiday stan-dard.

STATE NEWS Sidney Daily News,Thursday,September 27,2012 A

Romney, eager to proj-ect confidence and brushaside suggestions that hewas faltering, went afterworking-class voters out-side Columbus andCleve-land before rolling toToledo.Obama rallied col-lege crowds at BowlingGreen State Universityand Kent State Univer-sity, reminding Ohioanstheir state allows them tostart cast ballots nextweek.Early voting has al-ready begun inmore thantwo dozen other states.For Romney, in his ap-

pearances and in a newTV ad in which he ap-peals straight to the cam-era, it was time for plaintalk to contrast himselfwith Obama, and tomince no words about hisexpectations.“There are so many

people in our country whoare hurting right now. Iwant to help them. I knowwhat it takes,” Romneytold the crowd in Wester-ville. “I care about thepeople of America, andthe difference betweenme and Barack Obama isI know what to do.”Asked in an interview

about his ability to em-pathize with ordinaryAmericans, Romney citedthe health care law hechampioned while gover-nor of Massachusetts. It’sa topic Romney usuallydoesn’t raise becauseObama cites the initiativeas the basis for his ownhealth care overhaul.Conservatives despisewhat they call “Oba-macare” — Romney hasvowed to repeal and re-place it if elected — andtend to oppose the idea ofuniversal health cover-age.“Don’t forget — I got

everybody in my state in-sured,” Romney toldNBCNews while in Toledo.“One hundred percent ofthe kids in our state hadhealth insurance. I don’tthink there’s anythingthat showsmore empathyand care about the peopleof this country than thatkind of record.”That message so late

in the campaign — apresidential nominee de-claring his concern for allthe people of the country— was part of his widen-ing effort to rebound fromhis caught-on-video com-ments at a fundraiser.In those comments,

made last May but onlyrecently revealed, Rom-ney said “47 percent of thepeople” pay no federal in-come tax, will vote forObama no matter what,see themselves as victims,think the governmentmust care for them anddo not “take personal re-sponsibility and care fortheir lives.”New opinion polls, con-

ducted after the video be-came public, showObamaopening up apparentleads over Romney in bat-tleground states, includ-ing Ohio and Virginia.And majorities of votersin Florida, Ohio andPennsylvania say Rom-ney’s policies would favorthe rich over the middleclass or the poor.Specifically in Ohio,

two surveys show thepresident crossing the 50percent mark amonglikely voters. A Washing-ton Post poll foundObama ahead 52 percentto 44 percent amongthose most likely to turnout, and a QuinnipiacU n i v e r s i t y / C B SNews/New York Timespoll showed a 10-pointObama lead among defi-nite voters.Noting anew the Rom-

ney video comments,Obama said Wednesday:“We understand thatAmerica is not aboutwhat can be done for us.It’s about what can bedone by us together, asone nation, as one people.”And he added: “You

can’t make it happen if

you write off half the na-tion before you take of-fice.”Romney was showing

signs of picking up hispace, and he did notmincewords about his ex-pectations.“Were we to re-elect

President Obama there isno question in my mindwe’d face four more diffi-cult years,” he said.“If, in-stead I — no, instead,when I become president,we’re going to get thiseconomy growing again,we’re going to do thethings that ignite thiseconomy.”Romney scheduled a

blizzard of interviewswithABC,CBS andNBC,his second round ofbroadcast network ap-pearances in three daysafter weeks of ignoringtheir requests. He alsodid interviews Tuesdaywith Fox News and CNN.“I’m very pleased with

some polls, less so withother polls,” he told ABC.“But frankly, at this earlystage, polls go up, polls godown.”The new Romney TV

ad, at 60 seconds, is alonger and softer ap-proach in which hespeaks about peoplestruggling to pay for foodand gas with falling in-comes.At one point on

Wednesday, the two can-didates spoke from differ-ent sections of northernOhio at the same time,their scenery as differentas their message.At a factory in Bedford

Heights, Romney ap-peared on a stage sur-rounded by visualevidence of Ohio’s manu-facturing base — giantcoils of steel wire, metalbeams, yellow “caution”signs—and spoke asma-chines whirred in thebackground.He appearedwith Mike Rowe, aneveryman TV personalityand pitchman.Obama appeared at

two packed college bas-ketball arenas, deliveringhis message first to aboisterous crowd of morethan 5,000 at BowlingGreen and then to 6,000screaming supporters atKent State.He said a student who

introduced him broke hiswrist during a game of ul-timate Frisbee.Exhortingthe crowd to vote, he said,“You got to play throughinjuries.”The campaigns tried,

too, for footholds on otherfronts.Both sides kept up

their attempts to painteach other as weak indealing with China, ef-forts aimed at wooingsupport from working-class voters whose jobsmight suffer from importsfrom China.Romney also focused

Wednesday on interestpaid on the national debt,a subject he hasn’t regu-larly discussed in hisstandard campaignspeech. His commentscame after a WashingtonPost poll showed the fed-eral debt and deficit arethe one set of issueswhere he has an advan-tage over Obama withlikely voters.Romney’s running

mate, Paul Ryan, took asharper approach.He toldradio host Sean Hannitythat Obama was usinghollow tactics to paint hisopponents as evil.“He’s basically trying

to say ‘If you want any se-curity in your life stickwith me. If you go withthese Republicans they’regoing to feed you to thewolves. It’s going to be adog-eat-dog society,’”Ryan said.In recent weeks, Rom-

ney has lost his pollingedge on the economy gen-erally, with more peoplesaying they now trustObama to fix the nation’seconomic woes.

CAMPAIGN From Page 1 Ohio governor signs 5 billsshoring up public pensions

BY ANN SANNERThe Associated Press

COLUMBUS (AP)—Gov. JohnKasich signed a package of billsWednesday aimed at shoring upOhio’s five public pension fundsand praised the rare bipartisan-ship that secured their passage.“We’ve got plenty of time to

fight on lots of stuff,” said Kasich,a Republican. “But there aresome absolutely critical thingsthat have to be done to makesure that people are going to bein good shape.”The legislation makes changes

to funds covering some 1.8 mil-lion retirees, future retirees andtheir families. They include in-creases to some premiums, re-duced payouts and tighterretirement eligibility require-ments for funds covering teach-ers, police, troopers and otherpublic workers.

The bills cleared the GOP-con-trolled Legislature two weeks agowith unanimous votes on all butone measure.The package of bills is aimed at

keeping the funds solvent.The af-fected funds are: Ohio Public Em-ployee Retirement System, StateTeachers Retirement System,School Employees RetirementSystem, Ohio Highway Patrol Re-tirement System and the Ohio Po-lice and Fire Pension Fund.Republican Senate President

Tom Niehaus and Senate Demo-cratic Leader Eric Kearney co-sponsored the bills.The measures will take effect

Jan. 7. Employee contributionrates would be gradually in-creased by increments from 10percent of salary to 12.25 percentfor those belonging to the OhioPolice and Fire Pension Fund,and from 10 percent to 14 percentfor members of the State Teach-

ers Retirement System.Members of OPERS and the

School Employees RetirementSystem would not see an increasein contributions. The Ohio High-way Patrol Retirement Systemboard could adjust member con-tributions from 10 percent to upto 14 percent of salary.At Wednesday’s bill signing,

Kasich congratulated the funds’leaders for coming forward withwhat he said were “very toughrecommendations that will gettheir fund settled down” for sig-nificant period of time.Kasich downplayed any notion

that more legislative changes tothe funds were in the near fu-ture.“In terms of more things we

need to do right now, we need totake a deep breath, and, frankly,we got to congratulate the sys-tems and the Legislature,” hesaid.

Cockatoo ownerappeals fineWARWICK, R.I. (AP) -

The owner of a foul-mouthed cockatoo in RhodeIsland who was slappedwith a $15 fine for violatinga noise ordinance is appeal-ing.The Providence Journal

reports that Warwick resi-dent Lynne Taylor is ap-pealing to a state court afine imposed by amunicipaljudge.The judge saidTaylorhad broken a local law thatprohibits residents from let-ting their pets habituallyhowl, bark or make othernoise.Taylor’s lawyer says the

ordinance is unconstitu-tional because it gives noparameters for what noiseconstitutes a violation. Henotes the statute says thatif someone is annoyed, it’s apublic nuisance.A neighbor accused Tay-

lor’s bird of parroting vulgarphrases, cursing and loudlyspeaking expletives. Theneighbor lives with Taylor’sex-husband.

Rebels strike power centerBEIRUT (AP) — Syrian

rebels struck deep in thefortress-like inner sanctum ofPresident Bashar Assad’s ruleWednesday in Damascus, deto-nating two car bombs that en-gulfed the army headquartersin flames.The suicide bombings and

subsequent gun battles in theSyrian capital killed at leastfive people, including a re-porter for IranianTV.The care-fully orchestrated attackshighlighted the regime’s grow-ing vulnerability, even as the18-month battle to bring downAssad is locked in a stalemate.International diplomacy has

failed to stop the bloodshed.Making his debut on the

global stage at the United Na-tions, Egypt’s new PresidentMohammed Morsi said he will

not rest until Syria’s civil waris brought to an end. He calledit the “tragedy of the age” andone that “we all must end.”Morsi has launched an “Is-

lamic Quartet” of regional pow-ers to seek an end to theviolence, but he has not offereda specific plan of action.The explosions targeting the

Syrian military compoundwent off about 10 minutesapart, around 7 a.m., with thefirst blast possibly meant tocreate a diversion to enable thesecond attacker to get into thecompound.Security camera footage

aired by Syrian state TVshowed a white van driving ona busy thoroughfare outsidethe military compound, thenveering to the right and ex-ploding. The footage showed a

second blast going off insidethe complex,with flames risingup behind trees.After the second explosion,

rebel fighters and regimeforces exchanged fire for morethan three hours, including in-side the military compound,said Rami Abdul-Rahman ofthe Britain-based Syrian Ob-servatory for Human Rights,an activist group. The fightingspilled over into nearbyOmayyad Square, with regimetroops — some wildly firing inthe air — chasing after rebelgunmen, witnesses said.Syrian state TV reported

that four army guards werekilled and 14 people werewounded, including civiliansand military personnel.The Iranian English lan-

guage Press TV said one of its

Syrian correspondents, 33-year-old Maya Nasser, waskilled by a rebel sniper follow-ing the blast. The station re-played Nasser’s last report, inwhich he was on the phonefrom Damascus during a livebroadcast, when the line sud-denly went silent. The Damas-cus bureau chief for Press TV,HoseinMortada,was woundedin the clashes.Abdul-Rahman said the

regime was underreporting ca-sualties in an attempt to playdown the severity of the at-tacks.Fear spread among resi-

dents of the nearbyMalki area,an upscale district that haslargely been sheltered from thebattles that usually rage in thecity’s impoverished belt of sub-urbs.

Morsi assumes major role in MideastUNITED NATIONS (AP)

— Egypt’s new President Mo-hammed Morsi assignedhimself the heavyweight’srole in the Middle East onWednesday, declaring in hisfirst speech to the UnitedNations that the civil warraging in Syria is the“tragedy of the age” and mustbe brought to an end.In a wide-ranging address

that touched on all major is-sues confronting the region,Morsi also decried Israeli set-tlement-building on territoryPalestinians claim for a fu-ture state and condemned afilm produced in the UnitedStates that denigratesIslam’s Prophet Muhammad.He urged all U.N. member

nations to join in an effort toend what he called “the ca-tastrophe in Syria” that pitsthe regime of Bashar Assadagainst opposition forces try-ing to end 40 years of dicta-torship. More than 30,000people have been killed inthe 18-month conflict.Morsi has called for Assad

to step down and saidWednesday that “the blood-shed in Syria and the hu-manitarian crisis that hasunfolded must be stopped.”Morsi, an Islamist and key

member of the once-bannedMuslim Brotherhood, openedhis remarks to the U.N. Gen-

eral Assembly by celebratinghimself as Egypt’s first dem-ocratically elected leaderwho was swept into officeafter what he called a “great,peaceful revolution” thatoverthrew Hosni Mubarak.He then quickly inserted

himself into the thorniest is-

sues in the Middle East, de-manding that the United Na-tions grant membership tothe Palestinians, with orwithout a peace agreementwith Israel.“The fruits of dignity and

freedom must not remain farfrom the Palestinian people,”he said, adding that it was“shameful” that U.N. resolu-tions are not enforced.The Palestinians are ex-

pected to again ask for U.N.recognition and formallymake application to theworld body in November,after the U.S. presidentialelection. President BarackObama said when the Pales-tinians sought recognitionlast year that Washingtonwould block the move untilthere was a peace deal withIsrael. The focus of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations,which have been on hold forfour years, is a two-state so-lution that would formallygrant the Palestinians therights of an independentcountry.

Bizarre tumor case maylead to custom cancer care

BY MARILYNNMARCHIONE

The Associated Press

It’s a medical nightmare: a24-year-old man endures 350surgeries since childhood toremove growths that keepcoming back in his throat andhave spread to his lungs,threatening his life. Now doc-tors have found a way to helphim by way of a scientific coupthat holds promise for millionsof cancer patients.The bizarre case is the first

use in a patient of a new dis-covery: how to keep ordinaryand cancerous cells alive in-definitely in the lab.The discovery allows doc-

tors to grow “mini tumors”from each patient’s cancer in alab dish, then test variousdrugs or combinations onthem to see which works best.It takes only a few cells from abiopsy and less than twoweeks to do, with materialsand methods common in mosthospitals.Although the approach

needs much more testingagainst many different types

of cancer, researchers think itcould offer a cheap, simpleway to personalize treatmentwithout having to analyzeeach patient’s genes.“We see a lot of potential for

it,” said one study leader, Dr.Richard Schlegel, pathologychief at Georgetown LombardiComprehensive Cancer Cen-ter in Washington. “Almosteveryone could do it easily.”An independent expert

agreed.For infections, it’s routine

to grow bacteria from a pa-tient in lab dishes to seewhich antibiotics work best,Dr. George Q. Daley of Chil-dren’s Hospital Boston andthe Harvard Stem Cell Insti-tute said in an email. “But thishas never been possible withcancer cells because they don’teasily grow in culture,” hesaid.The new technique may re-

veal in advance whether aperson would be helped by aspecific chemotherapy, with-out risking side effects andlost time if the drug doesn’twork. “Pretty nifty,” Daleywrote.

Politician tries to keep jobTRAVERSE CITY, Mich.

(AP) — Shortly after newlyelected Rep. Dan Benishek ar-rived in Washington, staffersraised a banner that pro-claimed to visitors in his Capi-tol Hill suite: “If you are hereto ask for more money, you’rein the wrong office!”The message was fitting for

a tea party favorite who hadrailed against federal spend-ing and a “nanny-state men-tality” during the 2010campaign that led to a Repub-lican takeover of the House.But it was something new forhis constituents in northernMichigan, a largely rural areawhere a spirit of self-reliancecoexists with the reality thatgovernment — popular or not— is a crucial economicplayer.For decades, Michigan’s 1st

Congressional District electedrepresentatives who sidedwith conservatives on socialissues like abortion while en-ergetically seeking federal dol-lars for local projects — mostrecently Bart Stupak, a Demo-crat who retired after nineterms.But Benishek aimed to fully

embrace the conservativeideal.And now after two yearsin office, he finds himself in anunusual predicament, a politi-cian taking heat for stayingtrue to his campaign rhetoricrather than failing to do so.Whether he wins a secondtermwill offer clues about howwell the less-government-is-better philosophy actuallyplays out in the countrysideand small towns where thestaunchly conservative move-ment has flourished.

Senegalese mark 10years since their ‘Titanic’DAKAR, Senegal (AP) —

Ten years after one of the worstmaritime disasters in history, ahandful of survivors gatheredin Senegal on Wednesday topay homage to the victims ofthe Joola, a Senegalese ferrythat sank off the coast of Gam-bia, killing 1,863 people.That’s 361 more than were

killed when the Titanic wentdown nine decades earlier,claiming 1,502 lives. The MVLe Joola took off on Sept. 26,2002 from Ziguinchor, the cap-ital of Senegal’s southernmostprovince. The government-owned ferry was carrying sev-eral times the maximumrecommended number of pas-sengers, and survivors say itwas already listing from theexcess weight when it ran intoa storm.Survivors wept at the

graves Wednesday, most ofwhich are unmarked in theDakar cemetery that was cre-

ated for the disaster. The bod-ies were so decomposed thatmost could not be identifiedand one relative of the deadwent from headstone to head-stone, placing his hand on thewhite marker, as if to find hisloved one.Among the 64 who made it

out alive was Victor Djiba, asoldier who was assigned towork on the boat. He got outonly because he knew the lay-out of the ferry. But his friend,with whom he was sharing acabin, perished.“Since 2002, I have to use

sleeping pills to be able to fallasleep.And even with the pills,I still don’t manage to fallasleep until 2 a.m.,” said Djiba,who attended an interfaith cer-emony held at the cemetery onWednesday. “When the boatstarted to sink, I was in a cabinwith my colleague. I feel re-sponsible for his death,” hesaid.

Movie questions hell asplace of eternal torment Hymn sing

set SundayNASHVILLE, Tenn.(AP) — How can a lovingGod send people, even badpeople, to a place of eter-nal torment? A new docu-mentary struggles withquestions of punishmentand redemption and howculture affects and shapesChristian beliefs aboutGod and the Bible.Coming in the wake of

controversy over RobBell's 2011 hell-question-ing book “Love Wins,”

which put hell on thecover of Time magazine,and treading some of thesame ground, filmmakerKevin Miller believes thedebate about the nature ofhell is not academic.In an interview after a

Nashville screening of“Hellbound?” Miller saidhe believes our ideasabout hell have a real-world effect on thewaywelive our lives and the waywe relate to others.


DR. WAL-LACE: I’m a 16-y e a r - o l dAsian-Americangirl living withmy parents in asmall Minnesotatown. My par-ents came toAmerica whenthey were young.I am the onlyAsian student inmy school and Istand out like asore thumb. My parentsare very strict and stillhave Chinese ideas. Theykeep telling me that Imust be strong and that Ishould make them proud.That puts a lot of extrapressure on me.I can’t participate in

any after-school activitiesbecause, “It will interferewith my studies.” I’m apretty good athlete duringphysical education classand Iwould like to be ableto play on a girls’ sportsteam, but the answer isalways “no.” I am intelli-gent and would maintainexcellent grades and par-ticipate in sports at thesame time.My parents do read

your column and almostalways agree with youradvice. Please give meyour assistance so myparents can read it andgiveme a little freedom soI can enjoy the rest of myhigh school years. — Sue,Somewhere inMinnesota.

SUE: It’s time for aparent-counselormeeting.It’s important that yourparents are told that cer-tain extra-curricularafter-school activities ac-tually are beneficial whenapplying to colleges oruniversities.These schoolsof higher education enjoy

having studentswho had excel-lent grades andwho also partici-pated in after-school activitiesin high school.These studentsare considered“well-rounded.”Show your coun-selor today’s col-umn. Thisprofessional willknow what to do

to help you.

DR. WALLACE: I’m20 and the guy I’m datingis a year older. We havebeen together for morethan a year and recentlywe have been talkingabout getting married.Everything appears to bevery good, except for onething — having children.I’ve been told that if firstcousins have children,there is a good chancethey will be mentally re-tarded. All of my friendsand even my relatives be-lieve this to be true. Sincethe guy I’m dating is myfirst cousin (his father andmy mother are siblings),I’d like to know the truefacts on this possible prob-lem.—Nameless,Seattle,Wash.

NAMELESS: It ap-pears that first cousins

have a “thing” for eachother.About once a year, Ireceive a similar requestabout first cousinsmarry-ing. I always contact myfamily doctor on this pos-sible problem. Again, Iwas informed that no newdata has been found andthat “the chances of par-ents who are first cousinshaving a child that ismentally deficient arehigher than normal, butstill slim.”Unrelated parents

have a mentally deficientchild once out of every1000 births, while firstcousins have such a childonce in 900 births. Theodds are with your cousinand you that your chil-dren would be born with-out mental deficiencies.

PIQUA — Ohio StateHighway Patrol PiquaPost Commander Lt.Richard Albers hostedthe quarterly meeting ofthe Governor’s Commu-nity Traffic Safety Net-work of Shelby Countylast week.Officials representing

a number of jurisdictionsand agencies attendedthe meeting, which washeld at the patrol’s dis-trict headquarters inPiqua.Sidney Police Capt.

William Balling pro-vided an overview oftraffic statistics for thefirst three quarters ofthe year. Although cita-tions remain about thesame, the number of ac-cidents has increased15.6 percent over 2011,and the number of ar-rests for driving underthe influence has in-creased 22 percent.Hit-skip crashesHit-skip accidents

continue to be a concern,with the number of suchaccidents up nearly 21percent over the previ-ous year. Balling re-ported there has beensome progress in solvinghit-skip accidents, withthe rate of such acci-dents being solved in-creasing by more than52 percent over the pre-vious year. The othergood news is that lastyear by this time the cityhad reported two fatali-ties. This year therehave been none.Albers presented the

traffic statistics for thePiqua Post. The numberof traffic stops has in-creased 50 percent overthe previous year, with7,317 recorded thus farthis year. The number ofcrashes investigated isactually down 12 per-cent, a statistic that gen-erally declines asenforcement is steppedup. Albers reported thepatrol also made ahigher number of driv-ing under the influencearrests, with their per-centage being up 21 per-cent over the previousyear. The patrol reportedsix fatal accidents withsix killed.

County crashesShelby County Sher-

iff ’s Office Lt. Tim Ben-der provided the reportfor the office. He re-ported that thus farthere have been 108crashes investigated bythe Sheriff ’s Office, with31 resulting in injuriesand 55 individuals in-jured. Two of the acci-dents have been fatalaccidents. Twenty-fivepercent of the accidentshave involved an ani-mal.Chairman of the

Safety Network,Lehman Catholic HighSchool President andSidney Mayor MikeBarhorst, asked whydrunken driving arrestshad increased after hav-ing seen decreases overthe course of the pastcouple of years.“I could only guess

that as the economyslowly improves andpeople have more in-come, they are gettingout more,” Albers stated.“However, we reallydon’t have any data as towhy.”Albers provided an

update on House Bill 99,the bill passed by theGeneral Assembly thatbans texting while driv-ing.“The bill prohibits

driving a vehicle whilewriting, sending or read-ing a text-based commu-nication on a handheldelectronic wireless com-munications device,” Al-bers said.

“Unfortunately,” hesaid, “the legislationmakes it a secondary of-fense, but it has been ourexperience that whensomeone is texting, thereis a lane or other easilynoticeable primary viola-tion. I should note that itis a primary violation forthose who are under 18years of age, however.”Randy Magato, repre-

senting the city of Sid-ney’s EngineeringDepartment, providedan update on the trafficsafety improvementsthat will be made toOhio 47. Magato re-ported that of intersec-tions in Sidney with themost accidents, seven ofthe top 10 are on Ohio47. The Fourth Avenueintersection had themost, with 35 accidentsin the past three years.The Vandemark Road in-tersection followedclosely with 33 accidents.In all, the seven inter-sections tallied 150 acci-dents in the periodstudied (2009-11).

‘Better access’“The proposed im-

provements will providebetter access manage-ment, intersection up-grades, and widening ofthe roadway from FifthAvenue to Walnut Av-enue. The intersection ofFolkerth Avenue, Way-fayer Court and Michi-gan Street will becompletely redesigned sothat Folkerth and Way-farer align. Other inter-sections will be widenedand some business en-trances eliminated,” Ma-gato explained as heshared nearly two dozen

slides with the atten-dees.The program, pro-

vided by Albers, gavethose in attendance theopportunity to see thenew cruisers the patrolhas begun using. Albersreported that the PiquaPost has thus far takendelivery of three DodgePolice Interceptors,which are modifiedDodge Chargers. Thenew cars are silver.“The white cars were

supposed to be easier tosee.” Albers said. “Thatdid not necessarily proveto be the case, especiallyduring winter snow-storms.”

New weaponryAlbers reported troop-

ers who had alreadydriven the vehicles re-ally liked them.The lieu-tenant also provided aninside look at the newweaponry the cruiserswill carry. Several of theofficers in attendance atthe meeting, includingAnna Police Chief ScottEvans, said they like thenew short-barreled shot-guns being purchasedfor the new cruisers.Sidney Fire Chief

Brad Jones advised theEmergency OperationsCenter refresher train-ing has been scheduledfor Oct. 18. He advisedadditional informationwill be sent by emailwith the schedule for themorning session.The group’s next

meeting is scheduled forDec. 18 and will be heldat the Ohio Departmentof Transportation’s Dis-trict 7 headquarters inSidney.

Jackets open North playTravel to Troy Friday night to begin tough stretch of division games

BY KEN [email protected]

Young Sidney head coachAdam Doenges is certain hispost-game talkto his YellowJacket footballteam Saturdaynight was, at thevery least, hisshortest ever,and maybe theshortest of alltime.His team had

just pummeled Dayton Bel-mont 49-14 to run its recordon the year to 3-2. But whileeveryone else was celebratingand feeling good about an-other Sidney win, Doengeswas thinking ahead, as headcoaches tend to do.His Jackets took a giant

step forward in the programafter back-to-back 0-10 sea-sons by winning three of theirfive non-conference games tostart the season.But now comes the Greater

Western Ohio ConferenceNorth Division, which occu-pies the Sidney schedule fromhere on out.

The first North gamecomes up Friday night at Troy,and even through the Trojanscome into the game with aworse record than Sidney, at2-3, they are no doubt favoredgoing into the game.“The competition definitely

gets better this week,” saidDoenges. “As much as we’dlike to enjoy the Belmont winfor a while, we can’t afford to.We’ve gotten better over thefirst half of the season, but Idon’t know if we’re quite tothe level of those guys yet. ButI hope we are and I hope we’reready to challenge for theGWOC North.”Sidney trailed Belmont 14-

3 at the half last week, butoutscored the Bison 46-0 in thefinal two quarters to emergewith the lopsided victory.Doenges said he thought

there were some things hisspecial teams could exploit,and that turned the gamearound.“The kids heard all week

how they were supposed towin this game, so when wewere down 14-3 at the half, Ididn’t want to kick andscream and throw things at

halftime,” said Doenges. “Ididn’t want the kids thinkingthey weren’t doing whateverybody said they were sup-posed to do.“Our special teams turned

it around,” he went on. “Wehad a couple blocked kicksand took advantage of that.”One thing that stood out in

the final statistics from thegame were those of KalebMartin. Going into the game,he was mostly used as a re-ceiver, but Doenges wanted tofind more ways to put the ballin his hands.He responded with 179

yards rushing on 18 carries,an average of nearly 10 yardsper carry.“We just wanted to get the

ball in his hands,” said Do-enges. “He’s not the biggestkid (5-7, 160), but he’s gotgreat speed. He was second inthe 200 in all of the GWOClast spring. Our offense wasstruggling so we sat down asa coaching staff and I askedwho they thought we shouldget the ball to. And Kaleb’sname kept coming up. So we’llcontinue to try to get the ballin his hands this week.”

Troy has a new coach forthe first time in a long while,and he’s had to endure sometough losses so far. The Tro-jans lost by seven to Chami-nade, by six to Springfield andby one last week to Miamis-burg.The Trojans are still pre-

dominantly a rushing team,and Miles Hibler leads theway with 424 yards so far. “They will put the tight

end in and run the I-forma-tion, and just pound the ball,”said Doenges. “Hibler is a big,thick back and one of thefaster kids in the league. Asthe weeks have gone by, Ithink they’ve come to realizehow good he is.”Trojan quarterback Matt

Barr has been effective, too,however, hitting 34 of 62 for55 percent, and 370 yards.He’s thrown three touch-downs.“I think Troy is still trying

to figure things out a little,”said Doenges. “They have anew quarterback, new run-ning backs and an almost newoffensive line. But they’re agood football team that justhasn’t finished games off.”

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL


Lehman’s coachingstaff decided to take amachete to the offensiveplaybook last week andcut down the number ofplays the Cavaliers run.Head coach Dick Roll

said it was a success, andit would be hard to arguethe point after his teamrouted Riverside lastweek for its second winof the season.“It was nice to get a

win,” said the veterancoach of the 44-0 victory.That point total was

almost twice as manypoints as the Cavaliersscored in their first fourgames combined, two ofwhich ended in shutouts.“The kids responded

well to the difference inour offense,” said Roll.“Our win and the win byWaynesfield gives us achance to accomplishsome of the things wetalked about. It gives thekids something to playfor and you always wantthat.”Waynesfield opened

some eyes last week bygoing to Fort Loramieand coming away with a28-20 win over a Red-skins team that hadbeaten Lehman 35-0 theprevious week.Now the Cavaliers get

Waynesfield, on the road,Friday night, and it’ssuddenly a key North-west Central Conferencegame, for both teams.Lehman is 1-1 in the

NWCC, andWaynesfieldis at 2-0 after winningfor the third week in arow last week.The Tigers did it with

amazing ball control,which really showed it-self in the fourth quar-ter.After Fort Loramie

had scored at the end ofthe third quarter to cutthe lead to 28-20, Way-nesfield kept the ball fornine minutes and 30 sec-

onds to start the finalperiod before turning theball over on downs.So dominant was

Waynesfield’s time ofpossession that whenFort Loramie got the ballback with 2:30 left in thegame, it had run justthree plays the entiresecond half.“That’s what we used

to do,” said Roll. “Wewere ball control. Wejust have to figure out away to stop it. They don’tdo anything fancy. Theyjust execute. Their quar-terback is a nice playerand does good things,and he keeps playsgoing.”The Tigers like to

hand the ball off to GabeHennon, a 200-poundrunning back.“He’s a stud,” said

Roll. “They run the diveoption and most of thetime Hennon keeps theball. But as soon as youignore the quarterbackand the pitch, that’swhat they will do.“It’s a big game for us,

the opportunity to playfor something down theline,” he added. “It’s acritical game in theleague, and we’re goingin with the idea that wecan play with them, nodoubt about it. You lookat the 35-0 loss to Lo-ramie and that’s not in-dicative of our team. Wejust didn’t play well thatnight.”For the second time

this season, Lehman’sgame had to be sus-pended on Friday nightbecause of the weather,and for the second time,the game was completedon the field at LehmanHigh School instead ofSidney Memorial Sta-dium, where both gamesstarted.“I think it’s good from

the standpoint that wehave two more games onthat field (Sidney) andwe don’t want to tear itup,” said Roll.

Suddenly, it’sa big game

for Cavaliers


ANNA — Anna andMinster hook up Fridaynight at Anna in a biggame for both clubs, eachof whom will be trying toright the ship after acouple of losses in a row.The Rockets and

Wildcats match 3-2records, and the winnerwill just barely remainin contention in thetough Midwest AthleticConference.Both Anna and Min-

ster are already twogames behind Coldwaterin the standings.The Rockets are com-

ing off a 28-7 loss atDelphos St. John’s lastweek. The Rocketsplayed without startersNate Bollheimer andChandler Cotterman.“Not having them cre-

ates a depth problem,”said Anna coach BryanRioch. “The guys whofilled in are used to play-ing one way and had togo both ways. But Ithought they did a goodjob. Ben Kettler came infor Nate and had a nicegame. He’s patient andhard-working, and hegot his chance last weekand made the most of it.”Both Bollheimer and

Cotterman are questionmarks this week, Riochsaid.Anna’s biggest prob-

lem last week wasmissed tackles. ADelphos running backbroke some huge runs.“We had 26 missed

tackles and 24 of themwere on that kid,” saidRioch. “We were in theright position, we justgot physically out-matched by that kid. He

was a 220-pound run-ning back that benches385, and we’re throwing150-pound defensivebacks at him.”Minster, meanwhile,

has lost toMACpowersSt.Henry and Coldwater thepast two weeks, and givenup an average of 34.5points in the two games.“It’s going to be fun,”

said Rioch. “We haven’tplayed them for twoyears since coach (Nate)Moore has been there.Our kids are excited toplay them. They haveone of the better quar-terbacks in the league in(Adam) Niemeyer andtwo real quick backs.They present some prob-lems.”Niemeyer is just 33

yards shy of 1,000 pass-ing for the season and ishitting 57 percent of hispasses. He has not yet

thrown an interception.Korey Schultz leads

the ground attack with530 yards rushing so farand six touchdowns, andTroy Kauffman is dan-gerous all over the field,running, catching andreturning.“Obviously, our best

defense will be keepingthem off the field,” saidRioch. “We want to justhammer our 220-poundrunning back (ChristianWilliams) down theirthroat.”Williams fell short of

100 yards last week forthe first time this sea-son, but Rioch said “heran really hard.”Williams is closing in

on 1,000 yards for theseason already, andcould make it with agood game Friday. Hehas 867 yards going intothe game.

Anna hosts Minster, bothtrying to snap 2-game skids

FORT LORAMIE —Afer falling victim to a“perfect game plan” lastweek, in the words ofhead coach Matt Burg-bacher, the Fort LoramieRedskins are almost in amust-win situation thisweek.Loramie lost at home

28-20 to Waynesfield,which remained un-beaten in NorthwestCentral Conference playand handed the Red-

skins their first-everloss in NWCC play.Waynesfield used su-

perb ball control toemerge with the win.“I watched the tape

again, and they played aperfect game and had aperfect game plan. Igive them all the creditin the world,” said Burg-bacher.Loramie now makes

the long trip to MilfordCenter to face Fairbanks,

which will be leaving theleague after this season.They are just 1-4 but theteams they’ve lost to areformidable, including 5-0North Union and 4-1Triad.“Their four losses are

to good teams,” saidBurgbacher. “They havethe athletes, and theywill probably throw theball 25 or 30 times. It’s abig game.We can’t affordanother league loss.”

DENNY HAMLIN It’s hard to not list Ham-lin here, with wins in three of the last

five races. In a fourth event (Rich-mond) he led 202 of 400 laps but

was derailed when forced tostop for fuel late.

GREG BIFFLE Since his Michi-gan win in August, Biffle has

slumped to a 14.8-place averagefinish over the last five races. And his

lack of pure speed is notable.

It’salso a concrete track with several grooves.Goodyear has a new tire that puts a lot of rub-ber down and makes for very slick spots onthe track. Cars drive over a hump at both cor-ner entries that unloads tires and makes cor-ner entry a big challenge. Most drivers wouldsay it’s a real ‘driver’s track.’ Dover has madesignificant improvements to pit road in the lastyear, which has helped the pit crews.”

� On Monday, Furniture Row Racing an-nounced that Kurt Busch had been hired todrive the team’s No. 78 Chevy during the 2013 Sprint Cupseason. Busch will replace Regan Smith, who joined FRRat the beginning of the 2009 season.“Though we have made strides as a resourceful single-car Sprint Cup team, we are not where we want to be,which led us to the difficult decision of making a driverchange as we move forward,” said Furniture Row Racing’sgeneral manager Joe Garone. “Kurt’s exceptional drivingtalent has the capacity to take a team to another level. We

look forward to having Kurt join our Denver-based organization and feel his racing expe-

rience will play an important role as we plan ahead to2013.”Busch signed a one-year contract with Phoenix Racingprior to the 2012 season following his release from PenskeRacing in Dec. 2011.Smith revealed last weekend that he would not be return-ing to FRR. Smith has one win with the organization, whichcame in the 2011 Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway.He is currently 23rd in the Sprint Cup point standings.

Classic Moments

Looking at Checkers: Jimmie Johnsondominated Dover in June and has finishedsecond in the two Chase races thus far.Pretty Solid Pick: Matt Kenseth has fin-ished outside of the top 5 at Dover onlyonce in his last nine visits.Good Sleeper Pick: Might this be the weekthat Kevin Harvickwakes up? He wassecond here in June.Runs on SevenCylinders: DennyHamlin admits thatDover is his worstChase track. You’vebeen warned.Insider Tip: The gapbetween Johnsonand Kenseth andthe rest of the fieldis a sizable one.

Chad Knaus and Jimmie Johnson.

1. Jimmie Johnson Johnson, Chad Kanus and the boys have methodically clicked off consecutive second-place finishes to begin the Chase. Next up is Dover, where the 48 dominated in June.

2. Brad Keselowski Much of the talk since Sunday’s New Hampshire event has centered on Denny Hamlin being Johnson’s biggest threat. Oh, how quickly we forget about Keselowski’s big win in Chicago.

3. Denny Hamlin Hamlin has certainly earned a spot among the elite on this list. However, mistakes like running out of fuel in Chicago and the tire pressure issue during qualifying in Loudon raise red flags.

4. Clint Bowyer Hasn’t shown the pop of the preceding three, but neither has anyone else. That said, Bowyer is rolling along with consecutive runs of first, 10th and fourth.

5. Kasey Kahne Kahne has come out firing in the Chase with a pair of top-5 runs. Unfortunately for the 5 team, it hasn’t shown the speed to keep up with the team housed in the same complex.

6. Dale Earnhardt Jr. Junior, who has enjoyed a top-5 ranking in the standings all season, suddenly finds himself stuck in seventh since the Chase reset — and 26 points in the hole to Johnson.

7. Jeff Gordon Gordon’s last five races: Third, second, second, stuck throttle, third. The problem? That stuck throttle resulted in a 35th-place bomb and has the team wondering what could have been.

8. Tony Stewart Stewart’s average finish in the four races preceding Richmond: 25.0. Since: 5.6. Funny how since the Chase came into play, he’s abandoned the summer for the fall.

9. Kevin Harvick Harvick’s finishing position has improved from 12.3 to 9.5 since Gil Martin was brought back as the crew chief. That’s nice, but at this rate it’s not going to win a championship.

10. Matt Kenseth A noticable drop in performance within the Ford camp finds Kenseth — who spent the majority of the regular season in the top 3 in the standings — reeling near the bottom of the Chase.

11. Martin Truex Jr. Will have to do better than ninth- and 17th-place runs if he’s to keep the dream alive.

12. Ryan Newman In hindsight, wrecks at Atlanta and Bristol may be what’s keeping the 39 team from contending.

13. Greg Biffle See: Kenseth, Matt.

14. Kyle Busch After leading 48 laps in Loudon the engine went sour. That was almost too easy to predict.

15. Paul Menard Nothing flashy here, as Menard chugs along averaging a 14.9-place finish throughout the season.

Just off the lead pack: Carl Edwards, Sam Hornish Jr., Joey Logano, Mark Martin, Brian Vickers

MILESTONE WIN Denny Hamlin’s winin Loudon was the 100th Cup victoryfor Joe Gibbs Racing. JGR’s first tri-umph in NASCAR’s premier seriescame on the biggest of stages, in the1993 Daytona 500 with Dale Jarrett.In the 18 years since, Tony Stewart(32 victories with JGR), Hamlin (22),Bobby Labonte (21) and Kyle Busch(20) have combined for 95 triumphsin JGR sheet metal.

FLOUNDERING FORDS Through twoChase events, the Blue Oval gang’sperformance has been largely forget-table. Roush Fenway Racing’s GregBiffle and Matt Kenseth spent a largepart of NASCAR’s 26-race regularseason ranked in the top 3 in thechampionship standings. In theChase, however, no Ford driver hasscored a top-10 finish. Biffle (13th)was the highest finishing Ford driverat Chicagoland, while Kenseth ledthe charge at New Hampshire (14th).

BLUEGRASS SWEEP Austin Dillonscored the win in Saturday’s Kentucky300 Nationwide Series race at Ken-tucky Speedway. The win was Dillon’ssecond of the season — and secondof his career — with both coming atthe 1.5-mile tri-oval in Sparta, Ky. Dil-lon’s No. 3 Richard Childress RacingChevy has led 257 of a possible 400laps at the facility this season.

TIGHT AT THE TOP ... WITHOUT THECHASE James Buescher recorded hisfourth win of the 2012 Camping WorldTruck Series campaign. The win movedBuescher to within four markers ofpoints leader Ty Dillon. Timothy Petersand Parker Kligerman are also within30 points of the top spot. In the Nation-wide Series, 19 points separate the topthree positions held by Elliott Sadler,Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Austin Dillon.

Dover International SpeedwayJunie Donlavey fielded entries for over

50 years in NASCAR’s top division — fromJoe Weatherly and LeeRoy Yarbrough toRicky Rudd and Ken Schrader and a hostof drivers in between — but his Dovermount in May 1981 might have been hismost memorable.

Jody Ridley drove Donlavey’s No. 90Ford to victory in the Mason-Dixon 500 thatday, scoring both men’s lone Cup victory.

Neil Bonnett, Cale Yarborough and DavidPearson all took turns at the front, but eachdropped an engine while leading. Ridley fi-nally emerged with the lead — althoughBobby Allison’s car owner, Harry Ranier,claimed that NASCAR’s timing and scoringhad incorrectly placed Ridley ahead of hisNo. 28 Buick — and led the final 20 lapsto score an unlikely win over Allison, DaleEarnhardt, D.K. Ulrich and Rudd.

It appeared Denny Hamlin had agood idea that he would win the Syl-vania 300 at New Hampshire MotorSpeedway.

Or at least run well. Maybe. Actually, it’s hard to know exactly

what he was thinking leading up tothe second race of NASCAR’sChase for the Sprint Cup.

After dropping from a top-10 fin-ish to 16th with an empty fuel tankthe previous week at ChicagolandSpeedway, Hamlin tweeted, “This is1 week of 10. We will win nextweek.”

Most took it as a prediction; acalled-shot of sorts. And why not?Since his Sprint Cup Series debut in2005, Hamlin has shown a flare forNASCAR’s flat tracks, registering10 of his 22 career wins on the min-imally-banked facilities in Loudon,N.H., Martinsville, Va., Phoenix,Ariz. and Pocono, Penn.

At the least it was a bold state-ment, even from a driver touted as atitle favorite. However, Hamlin clar-ified his social-media sentiment onFriday, when he again took to Twit-ter, saying, “Not really sure what allthe buzz in the media is about mytweet last week. I didn’t guarantee,didn’t promise, just made a state-ment.”

The theme persisted in his mediaavailability later in the day, when hestated that, “I’ve had confidence be-fore and I said at Pocono and differ-ent race tracks (that), ‘I expect towin’ — and it’s no different. Givenour history here, given how we ranthe first practice and hopefully howwe run tomorrow, I’ll expect towin.”

Regardless of what it was, Hamlinbacked it up on Sunday. Starting32nd due to incorrect air pressure inhis tires during qualifying, the JoeGibbs Racing driver sliced throughthe field after the green flag waved.

By lap 30 he had entered the top15, and 64 laps later took the point,passing teammate Kyle Busch.

From there, the rout was on, asHamlin led 193 of the final 206 lapsto earn his series-best fifth victory of

the season. In the process, he vaultedto within seven points of champi-onship leader Jimmie Johnson.

“Once we got to about lap 50 andstarted working our way to sixth,seventh position, I knew that we hadthe winning car,” Hamlin said.

To find anyone else in the fieldthat thought different would be a tallorder. Second- and third-place fin-ishers Johnson and Jeff Gordoncould only shake there heads in ret-rospect.

“No,” was Gordon’s definitive re-sponse when asked if anyone hadanything for Hamlin’s Toyota. “Idon’t think that thing bobbled allday.”

“Never slipped,” Johnson con-curred.

The only reason for concern onHamlin’s part — and hope on John-son’s — came when NASCARthrew a yellow flag for debris with26 laps remaining. Hamlin, who en-joyed a nearly six-second lead at thetime, could only show his disgust

over the team’s in-car radio.“Really, I don’t understand why

they do this,” he complained afterhis spotter informed him that a cau-tion had been thrown for “phantomdebris.”

Hamlin got the jump on the lap278 restart, though, and quicklypulled away for the 2.67-secondwin.

“I had a little bit of hope for just,you know, a quarter of a lap there,”Johnson said of possibly wrestingthe lead from Hamlin on the finalrestart. “And then it was like, ‘Uh-oh, don’t lose second.’ And thenpulled away from Jeff and got goingfrom there.”

And with victory claimed andburnouts complete, Hamlin threwone final “called-shot” innuendointo play — furthering the “did he ordidn’t he” question — striking aBabe Ruth, circa 1932, home runpose after completing victoryburnouts on the frontstretch.

Message: Delivered.

CLEVELAND (AP) —Mohamed Massaquoi ishurt, and without thewide receiver Cleve-land’s passing could behurting against Balti-more.Massaquoi will miss

Thursday night’s gameagainst the Ravens withan injured hamstring.Massaquoi, who was offto a strong start this sea-son, strained his lefthamstring in the secondhalf of Sunday’s loss toBuffalo and did not prac-tice the past two days.Before leaving for Balti-more on Wednesday, theBrowns reported Mas-saquoi is out, meaningrookie quarterbackBrandon Weeden won’thave his top wide re-ceiver against theRavensMassaquoi has nine

catches for a team-high145 yards and has devel-oped a nice chemistrywith Weeden.Massaquoi’s injury

will likely give JordanNorwood his first play-ing time this season andforce Cleveland’s otherwide receivers to step up

their games for theBrowns to have anychance of ending a nine-game losing streak.Greg Little could be-

come a primary target,but he’s coming off a

game in which hedropped a big pass, lead-ing coach Pat Shurmurthis week to say hewould consider sittingthe second-year player.It’s also possible that re-

turn specialist JoshCribbs could take moreoffensive snaps againstthe Ravens. He caughtone pass for 24 yardslast week and Browns of-fensive coordinator BradChildress said Cribbs’playing time could in-crease.“We’re going to water

drop him in there, but totell you that he wouldhave a leading role, Iwould be misleadinganybody to say that,”Childress said. “We’regoing to have plays forhim in there that are hisplays. Even thoughthey’re his plays, it does-n’t mean the ball is goingto be able go to him justby virtue of some of theprogressions we have.We can look at him, ifhe’s gloved or he’s cov-ered, then you can’t gothere.“You could have the

best intentions withJosh and still not be ableto get him the football.”The Browns also need

to get more productionfrom rookie Josh Gor-don, who had threecatches for 40 yards

against the Bills andshowed signs of breakingout. Cleveland draftedthe 6-foot-3, 225-pounder in the secondround of the supplemen-tal draft to make playsand it may be time forGordon to start makingsome.“You see flashes in

some of his play andwhat he does,” Childresssaid. “He hasn’t had atremendous amount op-portunities around theball, at least as the regu-lar season has started.He’s been semi-produc-tive when he has beenaround the ball. “Weeden will try to

stretch the Ravens’ ball-hawking defense and todo that he needs to con-nect on a long pass withrookie speedster TravisBenjamin. Weeden hasjust missed on severallong throws to Ben-jamin, who caught a 22-yard TD pass last week.“Somewhere you’ve

got to hit one of those orotherwise they go in thebooks as a long foul ball,”Childress said. “We’vehad a couple opportuni-

ties up the field and weneed to hit a couple ofthose things becausethose have a way of tak-ing some people out ofwhere you’re playing.”Norwood could give

Weeden an option under-neath. Norwood, whohas been inactive forCleveland’s first threegames, made four startslast season. He had 23receptions for 268 yardsand a touchdown, and to-ward the end of the sea-son was one of the onlyBrowns receivers able toget separation from de-fenders off the line ofscrimmage.The Browns will also

face the Ravens withouttight end Alex Smith,who will miss his secondstraight game with aconcussion. Rookie line-backer James-MichaelJohnson continues to besidelined with injuredribs and won’t play.Browns safety and

special teams dynamoRay Ventrone is listed asquestionable. He playedlast week after undergo-ing surgery on a brokenthumb.

COLUMBUS (AP) —What’s brewing with the2012 Ohio State Buck-eyes ...

BUCKEYES BUZZ:Ohio State coach UrbanMeyer wants an offensethat can do a lot ofthings.So far, he doesn’t have

one.Heading into Satur-

day’s 3:30 p.m. game atNo. 20 Michigan State,the 14th-ranked Buck-eyes gain yardage eitheron scrambles by QBBraxton Miller or the oc-casional completion.Asked if the attack is

getting close to being asdiversified as he wants,Meyer said, “Oh, I don’tthink it’s very close yet.At times we showglimpses, but we’ve gotto have more confidenceto spread the ballaround a little bit.”The Buckeyes have

been without one of theirtop two backs all season.On Saturday, both mightreturn. Jordan Hall, whomissed preseason camp(cut foot tendon) hasgained 87 and 105 yardsin the last two games.Carlos Hyde, whomissed those two games

(sprained knee liga-ment) ran for 82 and 27yards in the first twogames before he washurt.Meyer considers Hyde

the Buckeyes’ “insideman” — running be-tween the tackles.Milleris still the top threat out-side containment. Halldoes a little bit of both.“We’ve still got a ways

to go,” Meyer said.NOTE THIS: Over

the last four years,Michigan State and OhioState have won more BigTen games (24) than anyother conference teams

(although the Buckeyesvacated seven victoriesin the 2010 season dueto NCAA violations).

WINROW MEMO-RIAL: A memorial serv-ice for former Ohio StateOL Jason Winrow, whodied suddenly on Sun-day night at his home inWesterville, will be heldon Thursday on campusat the Fawcett Center.The service will start at4 p.m.Winrow, who was 41,

graduated in March ofthis year with his degreein economics. He cameback to school through

the Ohio State athleticdepartment’s DegreeCompletion Program.A fund has been set

up to help Winrow’swidow, Nancy, and threechildren.

NO TAUNTING:

Everybody is question-ing football officialsthese days. Why not de-fensive co-coordinatorEverett Withers?After S Christian

Bryant was flagged for ataunting penalty againstUAB. Withers didn’t seeit.“I looked at the tape

and I don’t see the penalty,so it’s hard for me,”With-ers said.“I asked him, ‘Didyou say something?’ Hesaid, ‘I can’t remember.’The guy who threw theflag was back behind him,so I don’t know how heheard it.”

The current cost ofthe village lighting fromMVL is $300 annually.MVL is proposing in-stalling new short armson all poles and replacelights with high pres-sure sodium lights. Thecouncil voted to acceptthe recommendationsand have MVL make theupgrades. All workwould be completed 90days from the date thecontract is signed.

Kaminsky updated

council on the sewerproject and noted pumpswill be installed in Mc-Cartyville, and lines willbe tested and certifiedfor residents to hook intothe system. A publicmeeting was held onAug. 23.

It was noted thatshrubbery around thepump station will be re-placed.

Kaminsky noted thesewer system is now op-erational and village res-idents will receiveofficial notification fromShelby County, althoughhe said several residentsare already tied in to thesystem. The monthlyrate for residents usingthe system is $60 permonth.

Kaminsky wanted toremind residents theymust have their insideplumbing inspected be-fore they can hook up tothe system. Inspectionsare being done by MiamiCounty officials. Localresidents needing tohave an inspection cancall (937) 573-3534 or(937) 573-3535.

Any residents who didnot receive informationon hookups and billingcan contact Kaminsky at693-2404 for a copy.

Kaminsky said he isstill trying to contactDave Heilers aboutdrainage at Maurer’sfield. He will keep tryingto reach him.

Kaminsky told councilhe got an email fromFreisthler Paving re-garding containing coststo repair streets in thevillage.The council votedto proceed with the bid.Once the formal quote isobtained by Kaminsky, aletter will be submittedto Shelby County Engi-neer Bob Geuy to applyfor distribution of per-missive license fees tocover the cost of the proj-

ect.Council member John

Shumate stated he con-tacted Barrett Paving fora quote on the street re-pairs, but he neverheard from them.

Kaminsky said hewould contact Geuy tohave the Shelby CountyEngineer’s Office cleanout the storm drains byGreer’s property andsaid he would tell himabout the manhole coverproblem on South Street.

Kaminsky is waitingon a response fromShelby County regard-ing distribution ofmoney from mortgagesettlement funds. Sev-eral properties in Ket-tlersville have beensubmitted for demolitionif the funds are awarded.

The council heard anupdate on the generalstore. The State FireMarshal told councilmember Bart Shusterthe owner of the prop-erty was served with acitation on Aug. 7 andhad 30 days to addressthe problems on theproperty. If they are notrepaired, the propertyowner will be fined.

Shumate gave councilmembers an update onthe 35 mph sign. Hecalled CJ Electric andasked that they removethe sign. They are wait-ing on DP&L to discon-nect the lines to the sign.

Letters have beensent to residents regard-ing those with highweeds and grass.The vil-lage still needs to sendletters to residents re-garding vehicles in theiryards that are not work-ing. Bart Shuster was tocontact Sheriff JohnLenhart to ask about thevillage’s options in deal-ing with the issue.

Freshman/Senior sibsBBYY:: EEMMIILLIIEE CCAAVVIINNDDEERRWhen making the transition from junior high to high

school you may see a lot of faces you do not recog-nize. Five of our new freshmen have a senior whothey not only see during school, but also see at home.This year’s pairs of freshmen/senior siblings are Lau-ren and Nathan Bosway, Quinton and Clayton Mal-one, Riley and Avery Pickrel, Samantha and NickNeumeier, and Andrea and Connor Thobe.

Having a senior sibling can be very helpful whenmaking the transition from elementary school to fresh-man year. Freshman Clayton’s point of view is “It’snice to see my bro in the halls because he is cool andeveryone likes him.” Quinton had to agree. “It’s newto me to have a sibling here, but I like seeing him inthe hallways.”

Freshman Nick Neumeier is happy to be back atschool with his older sister. “Since we both participatein band, I can annoy her whenever I want,” he said. “Ican also keep an eye on all her boyfriends.” Big sis-ter Samantha shot back: “I’m so glad I’m here for hisfirst year in high school or else he would be com-pletely lost!” It is obvious that these sibling pairs care about each

other but there is always room for some goodnaturedkidding.

Theme of the weekBBYY:: AALLLLYY BBEERRGGMMAANN“What’s this week gonna be?” You may hear many students asking

this question regarding this year’s Friday night football games. Eachgame now has a different theme attached to it. Neon, beach, and cow-boy have been some of the unique themes thought up by students.Senior Emilie Cavinder came up with the idea of having a different

theme for every game of the week, no matter if it’s home or away. “Ithought it would be a good way to get more students to the games andget them more involved,” she said. This idea certainly has inspired more students to come out and support their school and the team.

Cavinder even had the idea to create a Facebook group online so people could make suggestions andeveryone could be kept in the know. The Lehman football players are excited about this too. Senior DefensiveTackle Quinton Malone says, “Seeing everyone come out to the game dressed up and excited gets mepumped and ready to dominate whoever we play!” Considering there are four games left in the regular season, there are many more themes to keep the Cav-

aliers motivated.

Cavs for a CureHustle and heartBBYY:: SSTTEEPPHHAANNYY MMCCEELLDDOOWWNNEEYYSince June, the

Lehman girls’ soc-cer team has beencontinuously work-ing hard preparingfor their season. Allof that hard work fi-nally started payingoff. The girls soccerteam has beenranked fourth in the state! This was the first time that Lehman, or even anyof the area schools, have ever been state ranked insoccer. Along with being state ranked, the team isalso undefeated. This is a really big accomplishmentfor these ladies since everyone claimed that this wasgoing to be a rebuilding year. Head Coach Tony Schroeder said, “My expectation

for this year is dedicated hard work with serious ef-fort, physically and mentally from this team. Winning isa result of these principles and because of that, I ex-pect a lot of wins.”

All of the freshman have stepped up their gameand have been a great addition to the team. Fresh-man Sara Fuller said, “It is so much fun; I love playingwith the upperclassmen. They are all so sweet and al-ways look out for me.”

Hopefully the Lady Cavs keep up their hard effortand continue to succeed. We wish them all the best ofluck for the rest of the season!

BBYY:: KKEENNNNEEDDYY MMCCIIVVEERRAt Lehman, we have

quite a few clubs soeveryone can get in-volved in something.Since the majority of stu-dents have knownsome-one whose life hasbeen touched by a can-cer diagnosis, one of the more popular clubsis Cavs for a Cure.

Some of the projectsplanned for this year in-clude a Cavs for a Cure football game pink-out, CanCancer, Field Day, and the Shelby County Relay nextAugust.For Can Cancer, there are special bins around the

school to collect aluminum cans. There is also amonthly collection in the Lehman parking lot so thatthe community can participate. At the spring Field Day, Cavs for a Cure members

run carnival games and sell pop and snacks with theproceeds going to fight cancer. In order to accomplish the club’s goals, they need

volunteers for these fundraisers. Interested studentsshould contact Mrs. Hall or Mr. Harrmann, the club’sadvisors. If being involved and working on projectswith the shared purpose of helping others and stop-ping cancer, join the Cavs for a Cure!

Each match consists of 3 teams, competing in academic areas suchas Math, Literature, Geography and Science, as well as categories such as General Knowl-edge, Sports, and Current Events. Each team tries to earn as many points as possible by an-swering questions posed directly to their team, as well as toss up questions, which require abuzz prior to the other teams. Players Include: Seniors: Neal Dev, Ardy Li, Frank EnYart andJohn Trygstad, Juniors: Jordan Clay, Carrie Stratton, Tyler Schlagetter and Sophomores: EliGraham, Nawal Hijazi, Adam Gates and Jack Martin, Freshman: Aaron Jenson, Kara Cobband Kelton Moore.After the county league concludes, the team competes in various tournaments in cities all

Another ten to twelve weekend tourna-ments around Ohio run through February. The team goal is to once again qualify for a na-tional tournament like the NAQT National Championship held annually in Atlanta, for whichthe team has qualified the past two years.The Greater Western Ohio Conference also conducts an Academic competition between its

18 member schools. The GWOC league runs on Tuesday nights December through earlyMarch and teams play a round robin format crowning a northern division and southern divi-sion champ.

Lifelong battle against dandruff

Breakup of long marriage may be only short-term

DEAR DR.DONOHUE: Iam 49. My mainproblem is dan-druff. I have hadthis problem for26 years. It evenoccurs in mybeard, mustacheand ear canal. Ihave used Headand Shouldersand Nizoralshampoos, andalso beer as ashampoo. I hopeyou have some sugges-tions for me.—T.S.

ANSWER:Dandruff isflakes of scalp skin thatconstantly fall off thehead. Many conditionslead to it. The most com-mon is something calledseborrheic (SEB-oh-REE-ik) dermatitis. It targetsthe scalp, but also may

strike the eye-brows, the eye-lids, the skinbetween the eye-brows, the na-solabial folds (thegroove that runsfrom the lowerside of the nose tothe corner of thelips) and the earcanals. It oftenitches.You’ve used

some of the rec-ommended sham-

poos. (Beer is not one ofthem.)Youmust leave theshampoo on the scalp forfive to 10 minutes. Somegood shampoos, in addi-tion to the ones you men-tion, are Nizoral A-D,Selsun Blue and Ci-clopirox (prescription re-quired). I know you triedNizoral, but it is an excel-

lent choice for killing thefungus partially responsi-ble for this condition. Tryit again, but leave it on forthe prescribed time.These same productscome in gels, creams andfoams for face and ear in-volvement. Apply theproducts daily for a week,including the shampoos;then three times a weekfor the next four to sixweeks. Then you canadopt a once-a-weekschedule for life. Be care-ful about applying thesemedicines to the earcanal. Do so very gently.If itching is a problem,

you can buy cortisone 1percent as a gel, cream orliquid. Liquid is best forthehairy surfaces.You canuse the cortisone threetimes a day if need be.If all this comes to

naught, then you have toput the problem in thehands of a dermatologist.

DEAR DR. DONO-HUE: I have three sistersand one brother.Three areobese. All are borderlinediabetics. Two have hadbreast cancer.All havehadaknee or hip replacement.All have high blood pres-sure and high cholesterol.They’re on the way to be-coming invalids at anearlyage.Yet not one doctor hasever suggested they loseweight. I say shame onthose doctors.—C.N.

ANSWER: Are yousure their doctors haven’tgiven them that advice?Maybe they’re telling youa story that isn’t factual.At any rate, I’ll take over.Siblings of C.N., loseweight. Your life is atstake if you don’t.

DEAR ABBY:Myhusband and I justgot some shockingnews. His father —age 81 — is leavinghis wife of 60 years!Mom is not entirelyself-sufficient andseems dependent onhim.Dad found himself

a younger woman —a“chick” of 70.He hasannounced that hestill has sexual needsand wants to enjoy therest of his life. My hus-band thinks it will be ashort-term fling and he’llreturn to Mom, but shesays she won’t be takinghim back. (Who knowshow she’ll feel later?)My problem is, nomat-

ter what happens be-tween them, I’m having ahard time even consider-ing forgiving him for hisselfishness. I know it’s notmy place as his daughter-in-law, but I don’t knowhow I can bring myself toface him feeling as I do.Any words of wisdom? —JUDGMENTAL JUDYINARIZONA

DEAR JUDGMEN-TAL JUDY: I do have a

few. If yourmother-in-lawhasn’t alreadydone so, makesure she getsthe best legaladvice possi-ble. A after 60years of mar-riage, thereshould beplenty of as-sets to split.They willmake her fi-

nancially independent,and from that, emotionalindependence will follow.Do not count her out as aweak sister just yet be-cause she appears to bestronger than you think.While it’s possible your

father-in-lawmaywant toreunite after the fling, it isequally possible thatwhen the “chick” sees hisnest egg is cracked in half,he will be less appealingto her. Only time will tell.In the meantime, keepthe peace, bide your time,and as tempting as itmaybe to voice everythingthat’s on your mind, keepyour lip zipped. This isn’tyour marriage, so don’tstir the pot.

DEAR ABBY: I havebeen married to “Tom,”the love ofmy life, for fouryears. We have been to-gether more than 10years and have a 2-year-old daughter.Tom was diagnosed

with a terminal illnessearly last year and is closeto the end now. He’s veryangry, which I under-stand, but he takes it outonme since I amhis care-giver. I’m also a full-timestudent about to graduatewith my degree in regis-tered nursing, so I’m busyall the time.Between school, my

daughter and giving fullcare to my husband, I’mstressed out.He yells a lotabout everything, frommoney woes to the wrongbread on his sandwich.Totop it off, we haven’t beenintimate since our daugh-ter was born.I’m not considering

straying from our mar-riage, but at times I feelI’ll be ready to date assoon as he’s gone. Itmakes me feel guilty. Is itwrong to feel this way?Doyou have any advice tohelp me through this

tragic time in our lives?— DEPRESSED ANDLONELY INMICHIGAN

DEAR DE-PRESSED: Yes. Stopbeating yourself up for ex-periencing human emo-tions at a time whenyou’re hauling a load thatwould crush an ox. OfCOURSE your husbandis angry.He has good rea-son to be — but he’s mis-directing it on you.Guilt is the last thing

you need to add to whatyou’re dealing with. It’snormal to crave the close-ness you haven’t experi-enced in two years.If there are counseling

services offered at yournursing school, pleaseavail yourself of them.Venting your feelings in asupportive environmentwill lighten your load andhelp you cope with yourhusband. There are alsoonline support groups forcaregivers. If you reachout in either direction,you’ll feel better. It couldalso be helpful to ask yourhusband’s doctor for a re-ferral to someone whodoes end-of-life counsel-ing for him.
