Carson

ELYRIA — An Elyria resident fatally shot a burglar who confronted him at home in the early Friday darkness, then hours later he was confronted by the dead

man’s upset relatives. Police said Jeffrey Carson, 29, of Elyria, broke into a house at 112 Water St. about 2:44 a.m. after getting a friend to boost him up to get in through an unlocked window. The home’s residents, Jack and Linda Dillon, were awakened by Carson, who was

in their living room, believed to be stealing electronics, police said. Jack Dillon called out and Carson lunged at him. Dillon had a handgun and shot Carson, police said.

People eager to hear VP Joe Biden speak at Lorain High By JESSICA JAMES

LORAIN — There were approximately 50 eager people lined up outside the Obama For America Lorain headquarters when it opened at 9 a.m. yesterday. They wanted to be sure they got tickets for Vice President Joe Biden’s speech about 3:30

p.m. Monday at Lorain High School. “People were waiting when we opened the doors at 9 a.m.,” said OFA volunteer Edna Johnson. “We’ve passed out hundreds of tickets and its only 3 p.m.,” she said yesterday. The excitement seems to be contagious. Residents of all ages are hopeful Biden talks about issues specifically im-

portant to Lorain. “It’s exciting to be this close to the elections and have someone visiting our area,” said Lorain resident Anita Glover. “My husband works at a commissiononly job so we are definitely struggling. I hope he talks about ways to create jobs in

LORAIN — At least five local Boy Scout leaders were listed among the organization’s confidential “perversion files” released by court order this week. An array of local authorities — police chiefs, prosecutors, pastors and town Boy Scout leaders among them — quietly shielded scoutmasters and others who allegedly molested children across the nation, according to the newly opened trove of confidential files compiled from 1959 to 1985. At the time, those authorities justified their actions as necessary to protect the good name and good works of Scouting. But as detailed in 14,500 pages of secret “perversion files” released Thursday by order of the Oregon Supreme Court, their maneuvers protected suspected sexual predators while victims suffered in silence. The files, kept at Boy Scout headquarters in Texas, consist of memos from local and national Scout executives, handwritten letters from victims and their parents and newspaper clippings about legal cases. The files contain details about proven molesters, but also unsubstantiated allegations. The detailed reports include men from Lorain, Elyria, Amherst and Bay Village, with non-detailed listings that mention Avon Lake and Lakewood, according to online databases released by Digital First Media and the Los Angeles Times. In many instances — more than a third, according to the Scouts’ own count — police weren’t told about the alleged abuse. The local listings state the comSee SCOUTS, Page A2

SANDUSKY — Lorie Miller was stabbed repeatedly with a 5-inch steak knife after she tried to end her relationship with boyfriend and murder suspect, Theodis Keys, 33, of Sandusky, according to Sandusky police Lt. John Orzech. Miller, 33, was found dead in the bathroom

of her 114 E. Follett St., home by her 13-yearold son, Kenneth, when he got home from school Wednesday about 2 p.m. He called 911 from a neighbor’s home, telling the dispatcher, “My mom died, I think she’ dead, there is blood all over the bathroom.” Police have narrowed down the time of the killing to between 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Keys and Miller lived at the residence for about a year, Orzech said.

today in history (AP) — Today is Saturday, Oct. 20, the 294th day of 2012. There are 72 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 20, 2011, Moammar Gadhafi, 69, Libya’s dictator for 42 years, was killed as revolutionary fighters overwhelmed his hometown of Sirte and captured the last major bastion of resistance two months after his regime fell. On this date: • In 1740, Maria Theresa became ruler of Austria, Hungary and Bohemia upon the death of her father, Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI. • In 1803, the U.S. Senate ratified the Louisiana Purchase. • In 1903, a joint commission ruled largely in favor of the United States in a boundary dispute between the District of Alaska and Canada. • In 1944, during World War II, Gen. Douglas MacArthur stepped ashore at Leyte in the Philippines, 2½ years after saying, “I shall return.” • In 1947, the House UnAmerican Activities Committee opened hearings into alleged Communist influence and infiltration in the U.S. motion picture industry. • In 1964, the 31st president of the United States, Herbert Hoover, died in New York at age 90. • In 1967, seven men were convicted in Meridian, Miss., of violating the civil rights of three slain civil rights workers. • In 1968, former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy married Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. • In 1972, President Richard M. Nixon signed into law the General Revenue Sharing Act, which allocated $30 billion over five years to state and local governments. • In 1973, in the so-called “Saturday Night Massacre,” special Watergate prosecutor Archibald Cox was dismissed and Attorney General Elliot L. Richardson and Deputy Attorney General William B. Ruckelshaus resigned. • In 1981, a bungled armored truck robbery carried out by members of radical groups in Nanuet, N.Y., left a guard and two police officers dead. • aIn 1987, 10 people were killed when an Air Force jet crashed into a Ramada Inn hotel near Indianapolis International Airport after the pilot, who was trying to make an emergency landing, ejected safely.

Burglar From the front page In a frantic call to 911, Linda Dillon said, “Oh my God, we just had a breakin and we shot him.” She continued, “My husband shot him. Oh Jesus. He’s on my couch. I think this guy is dead.” Then she thanked God her granddaughter wasn’t there. Linda Dillon also made reference to a burglary Thursday morning in which their $1,700 52-inch Sharp flat-screen television was stolen, according to a police report of the incident. “We knew he was coming back. He unlocked my window,” she said. Police have not yet linked Carson to that earlier burglary. LifeCare ambulance Vice President Herb de la Porte said the Carson was critical at the scene and paramedics took him to EMH Elyria Medical Center, where he died. Lorain County Coroner Dr. Stephen Evans would not release information about the shooting. An

autopsy will be performed today, he said. Still reeling from their brother’s death, Bobbie Kniceley and her brother Johnny Minor Jr. went to the Water Street home yesterday morning because they wanted to see where Carson, their brother, had been shot. While they were standing on the sidewalk diagonal from the home, a couple believed to be the Dillons drove into the drive at 112 Water St. and a shouting match ensued. “The people just blew his brains out,” Kniceley said. “They could have done something else.” The couple got out of their car, approached Kniceley and Minor and retorted, “You don’t just go breaking into people’s houses.” “Like you really had to shoot someone with a shotgun,” Kniceley replied. As the yelling continued, Jessica Dillon, who lives next door, called the police at 9:37 a.m. to report that the burglary suspect’s family members were outside 112 Water St.

SCOUTS From the front page piled information is for a “confidential record sheet” to be used if the individual were to try to register in a scouting program again. In July 1983, the Boy Scouts forced the resignation of Curtis Whiton, of Amherst — an assistant scoutmaster for Troop 109 and Webelos leader of Pack 157 — after another scoutmaster overheard a group of boys’ talking about Whiton showing pornographic movies to his Webelos scouts. Firelands Area District Commissioner Vincent T. Farrell approached Whiton about the matter, handing him three letters and a pen and telling him to read then sign his resignation. All three letters “were basically worded the same to the effect that due to personal reasons, Curt resigned from the Pack, Troop and OA immediately.” Whiton hesitated after asking if he’d be out of the Scouts for good and questioned if he could take the documents home and think about it. “After making his statement about being entirely out of scouting, he asked me what the webelos had said, I said that they mentioned his showing pornographic films and other things and that I really didn’t want to talk about it,” Farrell wrote of his meeting with Whiton. “He claimed that some of the Scouts didn’t like him and were spreading stories, ditto for the Webelos. Told him that at this point it really didn’t matter whether it was true or not because he had lost his effectiveness as a Scout leader (and) that it would be best for the BSA if he just quietly resigned.” A different scoutmaster shared the

The house at 112 Water St. was the scene of shooting during a break-in yesterday morning. A suspected burglar was killed by the homeowner. causing trouble, according to an Elyria police log. The couple yelled at Carson’s family to get off their property. Carson’s family members slowly backed away yelling that the Dillons didn’t have to kill their brother. Minutes later police showed up and de-escalated the situation and sent everyone on their way. The couple declined to comment. Kniceley admitted Car-

letter of resignation with the mother of Webelos. The mother spoke to her son “and apparently at that time the whole story began to unravel,” the document states. She and another mother went to the Elyria police. “We were unaware that there were other charges being investigated againstWhiton,” the document states. Whiton was arrested on Aug. 23, nearly a month after his resignation for “personal reasons.” The file on him is unclear what part Scouts played in the investigation, or if they reported the original accusation to the police. Whiton received a plea bargain, and pleaded guilty to eight counts of rape, down from 18 counts previously. He was sentenced to six to nine years in prison. In a letter to the national office for the BSA, Gary Lehman, Scout executive for the Firelands Area Council, stated that while the other charges were valid, the decision to pursue them would have meant a change of venue, a traumatic experience for the boys to appear on the stand and the possibility of questionable evidence. “As far as we are concerned, the case is closed; and we certainly hope that the adverse publicity will slowly fade away,” he said. Newspaper articles from the time listed Whiton’s victims as between the age of 8 and 12-years-old. It was not the first or last time Lehman would deal with an incident involving a scout leader committing a sexual act against a juvenile. Twice in the city of Lorain, Lehman’s name is mentioned when discussing two separate incidents: one in 1972 and another in 1985. In October 1972, NASA mechanic James Bodak resigned from his position for “personal

“It’s not right the elementary school doesn’t have an art or music program,” Glover said. “They need to do more for education, especially after Lorain’s report cards were released.” Many thought Biden’s visit shows how important Ohio is in the November elections. “Biden deciding to come to Lorain is a huge indication the Democrats really want the Ohio vote,” said Scott Hensley, of Lorain. “This is a blue-collar city and state. He picked a good crowd to speak in front of.” Younger Obama support-

ers are equally as anxious about Biden’s appearance. “I’m very excited to visit the school my family graduated from,” said Mark Kniceley, 14, of Lorain. “I like supporting Democratic candidates and this is a strong Democratic county. I think Romney seems like a nice guy, but Obama gets the advance here in Ohio.” OFA regional press secretary Raymonde Charles said the vice president’s visit would not have been possible without volunteers and Democratic supporters. “Volunteers are the heartbeat of this campaign,” she

son had a criminal record for assault, theft and domestic violence. However, she said, “They should have taken different precautions.” Kniceley was notified of the shooting about 4:30 a.m. Another brother, Matt Green, said the family w a s n’t getting consistent information from authorities. “We wanted closure; now the family is stuck. We are all confused and upset,” he said. Green last saw Carson

reasons.” Bodak had pleaded guilty to a charge of “enticing a minor,” reduced from an original charge of “felonious assault,” for masturbating in front of 13-year-old boy. He then had the boy masturbate and later assisted in masturbating the boy while showing him pictures of naked women he carried in a manila envelope, a photocopied police report stated. Beneath a statute for enticing a minor, a hand written note states “Gary: This is the misdemeanor charge our boy plead guilty to,” signed with an illegible signature. Bodak got three years probation and was required to receive psychiatric and psychological treatments. In June 1985, two years after Lehman wrote that he hoped the adverse publicity would slowly fade from the Whiton case, a foundry worker named David Sherrard, an assistant Scoutmaster for Troop 314, was asked to resign from his position after pleading guilty to the sexual battery of a 14-yearold girl, who told police that she was raped on a weekly basis over the course of months, a Journal newspaper clipping stated. Sherrard was told he could continue attending Scout functions where parents were involved, in his role as a father of a Scout member. In March 1985, Brian Keyes, of Bay Village, was barred from future registration with the Boy Scouts after officials learned he’d been placed on probation for “incidents involving sexual activities with male juveniles,” the file states. James Bartel, Scout executive for the Greater Cleveland Council, stated he learned about the probation in February when a Lakewood police officer told him Keyes was convicted of two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor

Thursday around 6:30 p.m. Carson didn’t say anything about planning to break into a house, Green said. “I’m not saying he was perfect, but he didn’t deserve it,” Green said. Carson worked at Green Circle Growers in Oberlin, was laid off and had since gotten another job. Green said he knows his brother had a criminal past, liked to fight and had been behind bars on and off since he was 17 years old. Despite Carson’s past, Green said the situation could have been resolved differently. “I could replace anything in their house. They aren’t going to replace my brother,” he said. Elyria police Lt. Andy Eichenlaub said police are not releasing details about the gun used to shoot Carson or how many times he was shot or where. When asked if the shooting was justified or would be considered self defense, Eichenlaub said, “I’m not going to speculate. The investigation is ongoing.” There are no charges at this time.

in 1984. While Keyes probation officer gave little details, he told Bartel that Keyes “was to have absolutely no contact or association with children and youth, effective immediately.” In 1962, an Elyria High School teacher and an advisor for Post 136, Joseph Glick was added to the confidential list after Glick admitted to being involved in a “gay party” with an offense reported as “contributing the delinquency of minors.” Glick admitted his involvement after a boy’s mother gave permission to handle the matter through the school district. Glick was asked to resign and then asked to collect his belonging and leave town. The files were shown to a jury in a 2010 Oregon civil suit that the Scouts lost, and the Oregon Supreme Court ruled the files should be made public. After months of objections and redactions, the Scouts and Portland attorney Kelly Clark released them. “You do not keep secrets hidden about dangers to children,” said Clark, who in 2010 won a landmark lawsuit against the Boy Scouts on behalf of a plaintiff who was molested by an assistant scoutmaster in the 1980s. In a statement on Thursday, Scouts’ spokesman Deron Smith said, “There is nothing more important than the safety of our Scouts.” Smith said there have been times when Scouts’ responses to sex abuse allegations were “plainly insufficient, inappropriate, or wrong” and the organization extends its “deepest and sincere apologies to victims and their families.” The Associated Press contributed to this article.

said “The conversations they have with their neighbors about the choice in this election are critical, because they’re discussing a choice between moving forward with President Obama’s vision to create an economy that’s built to last, or going back to the same failed topdown economic policies that crashed our economy and punished the middle class.” Lorain schools Superintendent Tom Tucker said Lorain High School and the ninth grade students at the annex building will dismiss at noon on Monday.

sometime between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. before he came to the police department to turn himself in,” Orzech said. “We speculate Key’s was at the residence shortly before 11 a.m.” After a brief discussion with Perkins police, Keys was interviewed and requested a lawyer before any further questioning.

Kevin Baxter authorized a charge of murder against Keys but more charges could follow, Orzech said. His fingernails were clipped and taken into evidence along with his clothing, the report said. Police would not say if Keys confessed to the killing. Keys has been on suicide watch at the Erie County jail since he arrived Wednesday at 6:19 p.m. According to a Erie County Jail employee, Keys’ file stated that he was speaking about suicidal actions to Sheriff Paul Sigsworth while being taken to the county jail. Keys is being held on a $1 million bond. He has until Thursday to enter a plea, a clerk at Sandusky Municipal Court said.

NEWS IN BRIEF Zimmerman defense can see Martin records SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — A judge ruled yesterday that attorneys for a Florida neighborhood watch volunteer can inspect the school records and social media postings of the unarmed teenager he is accused of murdering. Judge Debra S. Nelson said that defendant George Zimmerman’s attorneys need to know whether Trayvon Martin’s school records and social media postings give any evidence that he had violent tendencies. The 29-year-old Zimmerman fatally shot the 17-year-old Martin in February. Zimmerman has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder, saying he shot Martin in self-defense. He was present yesterday, his first appearance in public since his July bond hearing. He and his wife, Shellie, remain in hiding somewhere in Seminole County because of safety concerns. The judge said she would review Zimmerman’s medical records to see if they should be turned over to prosecutors. Nelson set another hearing for Friday. She will also take up an emergency motion filed Thursday by defense attorney Mark O’Mara that asks the court to grant depositions of several Sanford police officers, including former Chief Bill Lee. In Nelson’s first full hearing since taking over the case in late August, she held attorneys from both sides to short arguments before conveying her rulings. She warned them about bickering with each other. “I’m glad to have some of the discovery issues resolved. Now we can move forward,” defense attorney Mark O’Mara said afterward.

­ ATION & WORLD N Unemployment rates drop Decline gives Obama fresh fodder to make case for vote By JULIE PACE and CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER Associated Press

CLEVELAND — Unemployment rates fell last month in nearly all of the battleground states that will determine the presidential winner, giving President Barack Obama fresh fodder to argue that voters should stick with him in an election focused squarely on the economy. The declines, however, were modest. It’s unknown whether they will do much to sway undecided voters who are considering whether to back Republican Mitt Romney or give the Democratic president four more years. The statewide data released by the Labor Department yesterday provide one of the last comprehensive looks at the health of the U.S. economy ahead of Election Day, now a little more

than two weeks away. Voters will get one more update on the national unemployment rate just days before the election. But the state reports matter greatly to the Obama and Romney campaigns, which believe the public’s impressions of the economy are shaped mostly by local conditions rather than national ones. In Ohio, perhaps the most crucial battleground state for both Obama and Romney, the unemployment rate ticked down last month to 7 percent from 7.2 percent, below the national average of 7.8 percent. “I knew a lot of people who were laid off and now they’re working,” said firefighter Matt Sparling, an Obama supporter from Parma Heights, Ohio. “So something good is happening here.” Obama’s team is banking on the president get-

ting credit for improvements in Ohio’s economy, particularly for the bailout of the auto industry, which has deep roots in the Midwestern swing state. But Romney has opportunities to run on the economy in Ohio, too. The state actually lost nearly 13,000 jobs in September and the drop in the unemployment rate was probably due in part to people dropping out of the job market. Obama’s campaign released a new ad in Ohio yesterday, touting the president’s rescue of General Motors and Chrysler. Without the auto bailout, one man in the ad says, “Ohio would have collapsed.” Another man says, “Mitt Romney would have just let us go under — just let them go bankrupt.” The ad’s tagline shows the map of Ohio with the words: “Mitt Romney. Not one of us.”

Order would give cyberthreat info

WASHINGTON (AP) — A new White House executive order would direct U.S. spy agencies to share the latest intelligence about cyberthreats with companies operating electric grids, water plants, railroads and other vital industries to help protect them from electronic attacks, according to a copy obtained by The Associated Press. The seven-page draft order, which is being finalized, takes shape as the Obama administration expresses growing concern that Iran could be the first country to use cyberterrorism against the United States. The military is ready to retaliate if the U.S. is hit by cyberweapons, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said. But the U.S. also is poorly prepared to prevent such an attack, which could damage or knock out critical services that are part of everyday life. The White House declined to say when the president will sign the order. The draft order would put the Department of Homeland Security in charge of organizing an information-sharing network that rapidly distributes sanitized summaries of top-secret intelligence reports about known cyberthreats that identify a specific target. With these warnings, known as tear lines, the owners and operators of essential U.S. businesses would be better able to block potential attackers from gaining access to their computer systems. An organized, broad-based approach for sharing cyberthreat information gathered by the government is widely viewed as essential for any plan to protect U.S. computer networks from foreign nations, terrorist groups and hackers. Existing efforts to exchange information are narrowly focused on specific industries, such as the finance sector, and have had varying degrees of success.

Illinois Amtrak train hits 111 mph in test JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — For the first time on a key Midwestern route between Chicago and St. Louis, an Amtrak passenger train topped 110 mph yesterday, ripping through fog-shrouded farm fields and blowing past cars on a parallel highway. The test run on a special train packed with journalists, politicians and transportation officials was a milestone in President Barack Obama’s vision of bringing highspeed rail to the United States and transforming the way Americans travel. It also was a welcome morale booster for high-speed rail advocates who have watched conservatives in Congress put the brakes on spending for fast train projects they view as expensive boondoggles. “Four years ago we were nowhere. Illinois and the country was a wasteland when it came to high speed rail,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, among those celebrating onboard the train. “This is a dream come true today.” The silver five-car, two-engine train held the high speeds for about five minutes along a 15-mile stretch of track between the central Illinois cities of Dwight and Pontiac before braking back below its usual top speed of 79 mph. Paying passengers on the route will start experiencing the faster speed on that short segment by Thanksgiving. Most of the route will get the higher speed by 2015. The goal was to hit 110 mph, and for a moment the speedometer that officials were watching ticked up to 111. Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn pumped his fist in the air and gave a thumbs-up. He and the other dignitaries cheered, shook hands and congratulated one another.

Castro rumor mill continues to churn HAVANA (AP) — The rumor mill surrounding the health of Fidel Castro churned anew yesterday despite a letter from the aging Cuban revolutionary published by state media and denials by relatives at home and in the United States that he is on death’s door. Social media sites and some news organizations have reported allegations by a Venezuelan doctor that Castro, 86, suffered a massive stroke, was in a vegetative state and had only weeks to live, though the same doctor, Jose Rafael Marquina, has made some claims before that have not panned out. Marquina told the newspaper ABC in Spain that Castro had suffered a “massive embolism of the right cerebral artery” and while not on life support or breathing artificially, was “moribund” at a house in a gated former country club in western Havana. Marquina also said Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez had traveled suddenly to Havana to be with his friend and ally, an account that could not be immediately verified.

GOP pounces after news of CIA cable By KIMBERLY DOZIER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Sensing a moment of political vulnerability on national security, Republicans pounced yesterday on disclosures that President Barack Obama’s administration could have known early on that militants, not angry protesters, launched the attack on U.S. diplomats in Libya. Within 24 hours of the deadly attack, the CIA station chief in Libya reported to Washington that there were eyewitness reports that the attack was carried out by militants, officials told The Associated Press. But for days, the Obama administration blamed it on an out-of-control demonstration over an American-made video ridiculing Islam’s Prophet Muhammad. Paul Ryan, the Republican vice presidential nominee, led yesterday’s charge. “Look around the world, turn on your TV,” Ryan said in an interview with WTAQ radio in the election battleground state of Wisconsin. “And what we see in front of us is the absolute unraveling of the Obama administration’s foreign policy.” As a security matter, how the Obama administration immediately described the attack has little effect on broad-

er counterterrorism strategies or on the hunt for those responsible for the incident, in which the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans were killed. And Republicans have offered no explanation for why the president would want to conceal the nature of the attack. But the issue has given Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney an opportunity to question Obama on foreign policy and national security, two areas that have received little attention in an election dominated by the U.S. economy. Obama’s signature national security accomplishment is the military’s killing of terrorist leader Osama bin Laden. Ryan was teeing up the issue for Monday’s presidential debate on foreign policy. “I’m excited we’re going to have a chance to talk about that on Monday,” Ryan said. Obama, speaking Thursday on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show,” insisted that information was shared with the American people as it came in. The attack is under investigation, Obama said, and “the picture eventually gets filled in.” “What happens, during the course of a presidency, is that the government is a big operation and any given time something screws up,” Obama said. ‘’And you make sure that you find out what’s broken and you fix it.”

‘Perversion files’ show locals helped cover up Scout scandal PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Again and again, decade after decade, an array of authorities — police chiefs, prosecutors, pastors and local Boy Scout leaders among them — quietly shielded scoutmasters and others accused of molesting children, a newly opened trove of confidential papers shows. At the time, those authorities justified their actions as necessary to protect the good name and good works of Scouting, a pillar of 20th century America. But as detailed in 14,500 pages of secret “perversion files” released Thursday by order of the Oregon Supreme Court, their maneuvers allowed sexual predators to go free while victims suffered in silence. The files are a window on a much larger collection of documents the Boy Scouts of America began collecting soon after their founding in 1910. The files, kept at Boy Scout headquarters

in Texas, consist of memos from local and national Scout executives, handwritten letters from victims and their parents and newspaper clippings about legal cases. The files contain details about proven molesters, but also unsubstantiated allegations. The allegations stretch across the country and to military bases overseas, from a small town in the Adirondacks to downtown Los Angeles. At the news conference Thursday, Portland attorney Kelly Clark blasted the Boy Scouts for their continuing legal battles to try to keep the full trove of files secret. “You do not keep secrets hidden about dangers to children,” said Clark, who in 2010 won a landmark lawsuit against the Boy Scouts on behalf of a plaintiff who was molested by an assistant scoutmaster in the 1980s.

OPINION Jeff Sudbrook, Publisher Ron Beal, General Manager Tom Skoch, Editor April L. Grasso, Managing Editor

OUR VIEW

An endorsement

Trio of tax issues spells safety, health Vote FOR Issues 49, 50 & 51 The personal health and safety of our families and ourselves is the top priority for every voter in Lorain County. In November’s election, three countywide issues deal with health and safety: Issue 49 for Mental health services, Issue 50 for 9-1-1 emergency phone services, and Issue 51 for the Tuberculosis Clinic.

Issue 49, Mental Health Services

This issue will NOT raise taxes; it will simply continue for five more years a 0.6 mill property tax that costs homeowners only $1.28 a month ($15.36 annually) for every $100,000 of a home’s value. This small amount makes a huge difference in the lives of families facing a mental health crisis. Issue 49 generates more than $3 million a year, which is 13 percent of the budget for the Lorain County Board of Mental Health. The board distributes and monitors those funds among nearly 20 agencies. Among these agencies are The Nord Center, Safe Harbor (Genesis House), El Centro, the Far West Center, Firelands Counseling Center and Gathering Hope House. Each year, more than 10,000 children, adolescents and adults in Lorain County receive mental health services to get their lives back in balance. The Board of Mental Health has done an excellent job of streamlining its operations and making sure each dollar is well-spent. Ninety-three cents of every $1 goes to patient care. Issue 49 can literally save lives and families, and we urge voters to cast their ballots FOR Issue 49.

VOTE

Issue 50, for 9-1-1 call services

Everybody dials 9-1-1 in an emergency, and Issue 50 will provide the money needed to bring Lorain County’s 9-1-1 system up to speed with the newest digital phone technology used by the public and deliver help as fast as possible. Issue 50 is a replacement of an existing 0.35 mill tax plus an additional 0.15 mill for a new total of 0.5 mill to be used to operate the county 9-1-1 system for another five years and to make needed upgrades. The new cost would be $15.31 for each $100,000 of a home’s value. Improvements to be funded by Issue 50 include equipment to allow pinpoint location of callers who are using wireless phones. Also, gaps in service would be filled with new towers, and backup systems would be improved. The sheriff’s dispatch operation has been consolidated with Lorain County 9-1-1 and more consolidations are in the works. These efforts have eliminated duplication of equipment and services and enabled the sheriff to free up three more deputies for road patrol, an additional savings. Providing the most up-to-date 9-1-1 service at minimal cost is in everybody’s best interest, and we urge voters to vote FOR Issue 50.

Issue 51, Tuberculosis Clinic

This issue lets voters lower their taxes and strengthen public health services to control tuberculosis, a potentially deadly infectious disease. The county’s TB Clinic duties were contracted out to Mercy hospital in Lorain, at a cost savings. That savings allowed officials to seek renewal of the expiring TB Clinic levy at a reduced rate, down from 0.1 mill to only 0.065 mill. The cost to taxpayers drops from $3.06 a year to $1.99 a year for each $100,000 of a home’s value. The money will pay for tuberculosis testing as well as treatment of TB patients. Fighting TB is a must, and being able to vote for a lower tax is a welcome experience. Voters should most certainly vote FOR Issue 51.

Yes to Issue 28 To the Editor: As a parent and president of Amherst Steele High School PTO, I urge voters to say yes to Issue 28 on Nov. 6. The passage of this levy is critical for Amherst schools to sustain the high educational standards that the Amherst community expects and deserves. In order to remain viable, Amherst Schools have already made $4.5 million in cuts, and without passage of this levy, face additional reductions in teachers, staff and extracurricular activities and classes. As you vote, think about what is best for our children and the Amherst community. Say yes to Issue 28. Nora Cioffi, Amherst

Lundy gets it done

To the Editor: The partisan fights must stop in government if we are going to move forward. It is encouraging and refreshing to know that some in public service understand the importance of working together. In Columbus, State Rep. Matt Lundy has demonstrated that he supports putting politics aside to get the job done for all of us. Rep. Lundy has worked successfully to introduce bipartisan bills and to gather bipartisan support for his bills by reaching across the aisle. We need state representatives who understand the importance of working together. Matt Lundy understands the importance of working together to make Ohio a better place for our families and communities. Lundy gets it! Michael Stanek, Avon Lake

JVS Issue 41 vital

To the Editor: The Lorain County JVS has Issue 41 on the November ballot. It is just a renewal of the current levy. It is NOT a tax increase. Every year over 5,000 high school students and adults attend the school for quality career technical training. The JVS has already made budget adjustments and deep cuts of $1.4 million in response to two past failed levies. Failure of Issue 41 will result in a loss of 19 percent of the current operating revenue, resulting in additional cuts to programs and services needed to improve the job force in our community.

Support Issue 41

To the Editor: As a former student at the Lorain County JVS, I learned many skills. Skills that not only helped me gain a great career, but that also helped me to become a much more productive member of society. As a student at JVS I was enrolled in the Carpentry and Trades program. In this class we learned the ins and outs of how to construct homes, sheds, garages and anything that involves carpentry. With these acquired skills, I took a job right out of high school building homes in Avon Lake. Overall, this JVS renewal levy 41 is hands down one of the most important issues on the ballot. Vote YES with me on Nov. 6 to keep a good thing going for all future Lorain County JVS students. Bob Vandemark, Elyria

Vote for Issue 35

To the Editor: Clearview Local Schools are excellent! Many of you were introduced to some of the latest technology available in the field of education at the Fall Fest at Durling Middle School. The recent addition of smart boards and computer labs, along with the incorporation of Study Island, Accelerated Reader, and Accelerated Math programs into the curriculum, has helped to dramatically increase the number of Clearview students passing the state required tests at all grade levels in recent years. Both Durling Middle School and Clearview High School are now rated Excellent, and Vincent Elementary received an Excellent with Distinction rating! Congratulations to all of the Clearview students and staff. You’ve all worked hard, and it is paying off. Clearview schools have come so far. Let’s keep the motivation going. Vote YES on Issue 35 and keep the tradition alive! Susan Tomusko, Amherst

Lori saved dogs lives

To the Editor: Lori Kokoski is up for re-election. In 2004 when she first was elected commissioner, about half the dogs coming into the county kennel were euthanized with the gas chamber. Due to many programs that were put into place since Lori has been the commissioner that oversees the dog kennel and due to much effort by Lorain County rescues, the death rate has been greatly reduced. According to the dog warden’s records, there were 700 dogs that came into the kennel the first seven months of this year and only 13 dogs were euthanized. That is less than 2 percent, where it was 49 percent. That is awesome progress! Thanks, Commissioner Kokoski! Peggy Hartman, Amherst Canine Adoption Coordinator, Erie Shores Humane Society

Lorain County Joint Vocational asks for renewal levy New giraffe named Lulu Online By KAYLEE REMINGTON

kremington@MorningJournal.com Twitter: @MJ_KRemington

LORAIN — The Lorain County Joint Vocational School is asking voters in the Nov. 6 general election to approve Issue 41, which will not raise taxes, but will renew an existing 0.75-mill tax for another five years. Passing the levy will help aid JVS with day-to-day operational expenses such as technology, utilities, personnel and any general maintenance expenses that keep a school running, JVS Superintendent Glenn Faircloth said. The levy has expired and JVS has reached its time frame to request a renewal. If the levy does not pass this November, the JVS will loose 19 percent of its operational budget, which generates $3.8 million annually, JVS Treasurer Cory Thompson said. The levy has been around since 1982, but some years the levy has not passed. The JVS will have to ask for an addition in taxes the following year if this levy does not pass The levy

will cost a homeowner of a $100,000 property $20.10 a year. “This is the last time we can go up for this renewal,” Thompson said. The JVS has already made budget cuts totaling $1.4 million. Thompson said this levy is important, because it would maintain some of the operational budget and will go toward current progams expenses. “We’re using it to operate today all the way back from 1982,” Thompson said. “It’s going to help keep and maintain the programs here at the JVS.” The JVS has provided quality technical training and education for 41 years to 5,000 students and adults, and helps keep our local employers competitive by training skilled workers, Faircloth said. “The JVS is an important part to the community

VOTE of Lorain,” said Kathryn Karpus, president of the school board. “The impact that the JVS has on the community is what contributes to the success of Lorain County.” The JVS has a 99 percent graduation rate with individuals either finding work or pursuing higher education, Faircloth said.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A new baby giraffe at the Cincinnati Zoo has been named Lulu. More than 2,800 people voted online to name the week-old female calf, choosing Lulu over Mara and Rosie. Lulu is Swahili for “precious.” Giraffe-keepers had narrowed more than 5,000 name ideas submitted from around the world down to those three choices. Zoo officials say Lulu is doing well and bonding with her mom and dad, Tessa and Kimba.

Unemployment falls in key states

Decline could help President Obama stave off Romney By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON — Unemployment rates fell or held steady last month in nine key swing states at the center of this year’s presidential election. Rates dropped in Ohio, Florida, Wisconsin, Colorado, Iowa, Nevada and North Carolina. They were unchanged in New Hampshire and Virginia. The declines could help President Barack Obama at a critical time. With just 18 days until Election Day, polls show GOP challenger Mitt Romney gaining momentum with voters in key states. Overall, the Labor Department said yes-

terday rates fell in 41 states last month, rose in six and were unchanged in three. Two weeks ago, the government said the national unemployment rate dropped in September to 7.8 percent. It is the lowest level since Obama’s first month in office. The government will report Nov. 2 on October employment, just four days before the election. Yesterday’s state unemployment report is the last before the election. Many key states are still facing high unemployment. The rate was 11.8 percent in Nevada and 9.6 percent in North Carolina. Still, voters are often more influenced by the trend in unemployment than the rates

themselves, according to political analysts. Nevada will likely test that theory. It has the nation’s highest unemployment rate. But it also has experienced the steepest decline in the past 12 months. The unemployment rate there was 13.6 percent a year ago. Six of the nine swing states gained jobs last month: Colorado, Florida, Nevada, North Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin. Virginia, which is considered one of the most crucial states in play because of its 13 electoral votes, added 11,500 jobs last month. That was the most of any swing state. The unemployment rate remained 5.9 percent, far below the national average.

Weak earnings drag stock market lower By MATTHEW CRAFT AP Business Writer

NEW YORK — Poor corporate earnings reports pounded the stock market yesterday in a sour end to an otherwise strong week of trading. The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 200 points for its worst day in four months. Disappointing results from three giants of the Dow — Microsoft, General Electric and McDonald’s — were partly to blame. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fared even worse, as widespread worries about companies’ ability to keep churning out better profits drove the broader market down. Through Thursday, with 115 companies in the S&P 500 reporting, earnings have dropped 3.7 percent compared with a year earlier, according to Thomson Reuters, a financial data provider, and ING, a financial company. “And once you get one quarter of negative earnings, it’s a precursor,” said Doug Cote, chief market strategist at ING Investment Management in New York. “It’s the cockroach theory: If you find one, there’s probably many more.” Heading into this earnings season, financial analysts had estimated that corporate profits for July through September would fall compared with the

same period a year ago. That would be the first such decline in three years. The Dow sank 205.43 points, or 1.5 percent, to close Friday at 13,343.51. The S&P lost 24.15, or 1.7 percent, to 1,433.19. The Nasdaq composite index, hammered by a second ugly day for Google, lost 67.25 points to 3,005.62, a 2.2 percent decline. The big drops yesterday left the Dow and S&P clinging to gains for the week. All 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 fell, led by technology and materials stocks. Google continued its slump, losing $13.21 to $681.79, a day after its earnings report was accidently hours ahead of schedule. The report raised questions for Google and other Internet companies about ads that target mobile devices. It has been a tough week for technology companies. IBM pointed to Europe’s troubles and slowing business spending when it posted weaker revenue than analysts expected. Intel, the world’s largest maker of computer chips, blamed the global economy and sliding computer sales for pushing net income down. The bad news kept piling up yesterday. Sagging PC sales and trouble in

Three states lost jobs: Ohio, Iowa and New Hampshire. The number of jobs added or lost is determined by survey of businesses. The unemployment rate is derived from a survey of households. The two can sometimes produce divergent results. Ohio shed 12,800 jobs last month, the second most in the nation. But its unemployment rate declined. That suggests that at least some of the drop in Ohio’s unemployment rate stemmed from people giving up on their job searches and dropping out of the work force. People are only counted as unemployed when they are actively looking for work.

Europe took a toll on Microsoft’s net income. Its stock lost 86 cents, or 3 percent, to $28.64. Marvell Technology Group and Advanced Micro Devices, which also make chips, sank sharply. McDonald’s profit shrank as a strong dollar hurt international results, which account for two-thirds of its business. The fast-food giant’s stock lost $4.14, more than 4 percent, to $88.72. General Electric, a bellwether of the economy, fell 3 percent. The company reported stronger profits early yesterday, but its revenue missed Wall Street’s expectations. Orders for new equipment and services sank, mainly because wind turbine orders have fallen because a key U.S. federal subsidy for wind power expires at the end of the year. GE’s stock lost 78 cents to $22.03. As corporate earnings roll in, banks and so-called consumer discretionary companies, which include luxury stores and hotels, are projected to report the best growth. Analysts expect companies dealing in metals and other materials to report the worst results, followed by energy companies. But it’s technology companies like IBM, Intel and Google whose results have grabbed the most attention.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The maker of Banana Boat sunscreen is recalling some half-million bottles of sprayon lotion after reports that a handful of people have caught on fire after applying the product and coming in contact with an open flame. Energizer Holdings said yesterday that it is pulling 23 varieties of UltraMist sunscreen off store shelves due to the risk of the lotion igniting when exposed to fire. The recall includes aerosol products like UltraMist Sport, UltraMist Ultra Defense and UltraMist Kids. A company spokesman said there have been five reports of people suffering burns after using the sunscreen in the last year. Four burn cases were reported in the U.S. and one in Canada. More than 20 million units have been sold since UltraMist launched in 2010, the spokesman said. The problem appears to be caused by UltraMist’s spray valve, which is over applying the product, Ener-

gizer stated. As a result the lotion is taking longer to dry, which raises the flammability risk. “If a consumer comes into contact with a flame or spark prior to complete drying of the product on the skin, there is a potential for the product to ignite,” the company said. UltraMist’s label warns users: “Keep away from sources of ignition — no smoking.” But dermatologists say most people do not read such labels. “So many people put this on outside, while they’re on their way to activities, so I just don’t think people are aware of that,” said Dr. Michele Green, a dermatologist at New York’s Lenox Hill Hospital. Green said aerosol sunscreens have become popular in recent years because they are faster and easier to apply than traditional creams. Doctors and burn experts said yesterday the problem See RECALL, Page A7

Twitter to pull racist posts PARIS (AP) — Twitter agreed to pull racist and anti-Semitic tweets under a pair of French hash tags after a Jewish group threatened to sue the social network for running afoul of national laws against hate speech, the organization said. The decision came a day after Twitter bowed to German law and blocked an account of a banned neoNazi group there. The freewheeling social network is increasingly running up against European anti-discrimination laws, many of which date to the aftermath of the Holocaust by governments that acknowledged the contribution of years of hate speech to the Nazi attempt to annihilate the Jews. Yesterday’s action, which was not carried out immediately, could mark a new stage for the company that has famously refused efforts to police its millions of users.

But it is unclear how the social network planned to carry out the agreement or in what timeframe. “Twitter does not mediate content,” the company stated. “If we are alerted to content that may be in violation of our terms of service, we will investigate each report and respond according to the policies and procedures outlined in our support pages.” The company’s policies require international users to comply with local laws regarding online conduct and acceptable content. They also ban any content with direct threats of violence. The French Union of Jewish Students, which planned to supply Twitter with a list of the offensive tweets to be pulled, said it would still file a formal complaint against the social network to bring the tweeters to justice.

Feds probe complaints that Jeep Patriot SUVs stall By TOM KRISHER AP Auto Writer

DETROIT — U.S. government safety regulators are investigating complaints that engines on Jeep Patriot SUVs can stall without warning at highway speeds. The problem caused one crash in which two people were hurt, according to documents posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. The investigation affects about 112,000 Patriots from the 2011 and 2012 model years that were sold in the U.S. Chrysler Group LLC, the maker of Jeeps, sold another 18,000 in Canada. NHTSA said yesterday it received a dozen complaints about stalling. Ten of the incidents occurred while the Jeeps were going 65 miles per hour or faster. In eight cases the Patriots could not be restarted and had to be towed. “The complaints show an apparent increasing trend, with all but three received within the past six months,” NHTSA said. In one complaint, a Subaru driver told

NHTSA that on May 2, a Patriot’s engine died while it was on Interstate 5 on the West Coast. The Subaru was behind the Patriot when it happened, and the woman driving the SUV did not hit the brakes, according to the complaint. “I did not see a brake light, and it took me a couple of seconds to realize she had slowed,” the Subaru driver wrote. “By the time I slammed on my brakes, I hit her. I was still going 55 mph.” The Subaru’s air bags inflated, and the crash injured the Subaru driver and seriously hurt the driver’s 85-year-old mother, who was a passenger, according to the complaint. NHTSA does not identify people who file complaints or say where they are from. Chrysler said it is cooperating with NHTSA and that the Patriot has an excellent safety record. Patriot owners who are concerned about their vehicles should contact their dealer, the company said. NHTSA said it will investigate to see whether the problem is widespread enough to order a recall. So far the Patriots have not been recalled.

Homebuilders’ sales improving U.S. homebuilders are enjoying brisk demand after years of declining sales. Sales of new homes remained near a two-year high in August, aided by rising home values, ultra-low mortgage rates and a limited supply of homes for sale. Economists anticipate data for last month, due out on Wendesday, will show that sales hit their fastest pace this year.

Home sales indicator The National Association of Realtors releases its pending home sales index for September on Thursday. The index tracks the number of signed contracts to buy previously occupied homes. It dipped in August from July, when the reading hit 101.9, the highest level in two years. A reading of 100 is considered healthy. Another increase could signal a pickup in home sales.

Consumer watch Economists anticipate that U.S. consumers have grown more confident about the economy in recent weeks. The latest University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Survey index is due out on Friday. It is expected to improve slightly from September. The index has been on a positive streak since August. More improvements could lead to more spending and a pickup in factory growth.

McDonald’s missed profit expectations in the third-quarter. The world’s largest hamburger er chain said Friday its net income fell to $1.46 billion, or $1.43 per share. That compares with net income of $1.51 billion, or $1.45 per share last year. Analysts expected net income of $1.47 per share, according to Fact Set. McDonald’s has thrived in boom and bust times by selling cheap eats and constantly updating its menu. But

global economic econ pressures and intensifying competition a are wearing at the company, which does tw two-thirds of its business overseas. CEO Don Thompson said that the stronger dollar and tough competition in the U.S. are likely to continue to pressure revenue and net income results in the near term. He said revenue in stores open at least 13 months, a key restaurant metric, is trending negative so far in October.

“I think you just have to use common sense and not be near an open fire when you put on aerosol anything,” said Rigel, a past president of the American Academy of Dermatology. Dan Dillard, executive director of the Burn Prevention Network, said the group was contacted earlier this year about two burns related to spray-on sunscreen. One case involved a man who was standing near a barbecue grill, the other involved a woman working with welding equipment. Both cases

Freezing eggs for fertility works, caution urged WASHINGTON (AP) — Freezing human eggs can be successful in treating infertility — but guidelines issued yesterday still urge caution for women hoping to pause a ticking biological clock. Egg freezing had long been labeled experimental, but the American Society for Reproductive Medicine declared that’s no longer the case. The group cited studies that found younger women are about as likely to get pregnant if they used frozenand-thawed eggs for their infertility treatment as if they used fresh ones. The move is expected to help cancer patients preserve their fertility, by pushing more insurers to pay for their procedure, and to boost banking of donated eggs, similar to sperm banking. Here’s the controversy: Should otherwise healthy women freeze their eggs as sort of an insurance policy against infertility in case they don’t meet Mr. Right — or just aren’t ready for motherhood — until their late 30s or beyond, when the childbearing window is closing fast? The pricey technology, which insurance doesn’t cover for elective reasons, is being marketed aggressively for just that use. Yet the society that represents doctors who treat infertility stopped short of endorsing egg freezing solely for deferring childbearing until women are older. The conclusion: It’s not at all clear who’s a good candidate, or if women who store their eggs are being given a false sense of security. “The bottom line is there is no guarantee,” said Dr. Samantha Pfeifer, of the University of Pennsylvania, who chaired the society’s guideline committee. “A lot of women interested in using this technology are in their late 30s, early 40s, and they may have the worst success of anybody.” Anyone considering egg freezing needs careful counseling about their age and

the odds of success if they want to later thaw those eggs for use in in vitro fertilization, the guidelines stress. “It’s an insurance policy that many of those women may never need to turn in,” added Dr. Eric Widra, of Georgetown University, who

co-authored the guideline. But proponents of egg freezing, known medically as oocyte cryopreservation, say lifting the experimental label will encourage more women to check out the option, and they’ll make an educated choice.

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe has the looks of a class competitor By David Schmidt

Automotive Editor Journal Register Newspapers

PARK CITY, Utah — Starting out from a hotel at 8,400-feet for a press drive in Utah, Hyundai was making a point. Its new third-generation Santa Fe crossover utility vehicle has more than enough power to handle the altitude. True, the models we drove were turbocharged, so the altitude doesn’t impact performance, but we got the point. Better yet, the location allowed us to climb and descend not just hills but mountains. The brand has good penetration in both pre- and post- family segments, but Hyundai wants to grow in popularity with families. The seven-passenger Santa Fe is aimed directly at them, using a vehicle that has both good brand recognition and a good reputation. The five-passenger model is mostly for post-family buyers or those with smaller families. Mike O’Brien, vice president for operations for Hyundai here, says this Santa Fe has an urban CUV profile, and its hexagonal front grill gives it a more progressive appearance yet still reflects Hyundai family styling. There’s a two-tone color front face and the Santa Fe gets a broad stance with 19-inch wheels. The interior also uses two-toned color schemes. Hyundai wants the car’s looks to be progressive and bold rather than traditional in order to set themselves clearly apart from the competition — the Chevrolet Equinox, Ford Edge and Toyota RAV-4, Kia’s Sorento and even the Toyota Venza. For the three-row model, the competition is mostly the Nissan Pathfinder, Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. Back to the mountains, part of Hyundai’s confidence in the Santa Fe’s performance is that the five-passenger model is 268-lbs lighter than the outgoing model, weighing 3459 lbs., and is 184 inches long on a 106.3-inch wheelbase. Inside, the smaller Santa Fe provides 108 cubic feet of passenger space and 35.4 cubic feet of cargo space. The Santa Fe’s instrument panel is deliciously dynamic. It’s deeper and dramatically delineated lines, make it more aggressive looking and appealing. It

JOURNAL REGISTER NEWS SERVICE

2013 Hyundai Santa Fe makes a clear statement that this is a modern car. The seats are comfortable, and the Santa Fe gives a good amount of space for each passenger to call their own. Partly due to the sunroof, this interior has a nice, open feel to it. The second row of seats both reclines and slides fore and aft on the Sport model. There are even optional heated rear seats as well as a heated steering wheel, cooled glove box and a windshield deicer. You can also choose an optional panoramic sunroof, side sunshades and keyless entry and engine start. The ungraded audio system is an Infinity 550-watt system with 12 speakers. The five-passenger Santa Fe will get two engines, a 2.4-liter direct gasoline injection four-cylinder engine that generates 191 hp. and 181 lb.-ft. of peak torque. With a six-speed automatic transmission the front-wheel drive version is rated at 22 mpg city, 33 mpg highway and 26 mpg combined. The all-wheel version mileage drops to 21 mpg city, 28 mpg highway for an overall of 23 mpg. There’s an optional, more powerful engine, a twin-scroll turbocharged 2.0-liter

Magna Powertrain. Hyundai says the advantage to this system is that it transfers power faster and more precisely than other types of all-wheel drive systems. Another system available is active corner control while used braking and power management to reduce the feeling of pushing when turning. It does this by increasing power to the rear, then brakes the inside wheel while turning to force traction to the outside wheels. With electric power steering it’s possible to select the steering feel, either normal, comfort or sport. My driving partner and I both felt the comfort setting made the steering too loose and sloppy in a straight line. Perhaps in slow urban situations it might be okay for some. The normal setting is fine, and the sport setting made the car’s steering tight and precise. My suggestion is to learn to love the sports setting’s feel – it will make you a better driver. On the highway, this is an enjoyable cruiser. The power level is fine for both fast cruising and powering up interstate ramps. In town, the Santa Fe is quiet and smooth. The brakes are equal to the power, bringing the vehicle to a stop in a nice straight line, very quickly. The fun features inside are good, with a decent navigation capability and good sound to the stereo. The rear seat has more than enough room even for fullsized passengers. Children will fit nicely, including their child seats, and with just two, they’ll be far enough apart to not be able to hit each other. The drive didn’t include the seven-passenger version, so more on that later. It’ll hit dealerships in Jan 2013. There are only 24 build combinations for the entire Santa Fe model line, making for decent production efficiency. The fivepassenger is on-sale now, with a starting price for the base model of $24,450 and $27,700 for the turbo-powered engine. All-wheel drive and a couple of trim packages are the only other options.

four-cylinder powerplant that produces 264 hp. and 269 lb.-ft. of peak torque. Using a six-speed transmission, it earns a mileage rating of 21 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway, for a 25 mpg overall for the front-wheel drive and 20 mpg city, 27 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined. Both are dual-overhead cam engines. They’re also smooth. Clearly, four-cylinder engines are becoming the standard engine in virtually all except the heaviest vehicle classes. This is essential to meet politically mandated corporate fuel requirements. Gas mileage differs slightly as well, with the five-passenger earning a rating of 22 mpg in the city and 33 mpg on the highway, for a 26-mpg overall number. The Santa Fe gets a conventional MacPherson front suspension and multilink rear suspension, but with one difference. The brakes are “pushed” into the wheel, much like a racing car rather than intruding into the vehicle’s cargo space.

The employee told police he asked her for her ID which she gave. He then asked her who was going to pay for the drinks and she fled out the door, jumped into the car and they drove off, leaving her ID.

5 counts of voyeurism Retired educator from North Ridgeville charged in Florida By KAYLEE REMINGTON

kremington@MorningJournal.com Twitter: @MJ_KRemington

OCALA, Fla. — A 64-year-old North Ridgeville man has been charged with five counts of video voyeurism for supposedly recording videos up women’s skirts at a street fair in Ocala, Fla., Sept. 29. Albert Douglas Sebring was the assis-

tant superintendent of North Olmsted City Schools between 1988 to 2010 where he then retired, according to Vera Brewer, a spokeswoman for the school district. He was hired in Aug. 1984 as a coordinator for gifted students. A warrant had been issued for Sebring’s arrest. He was taken into custody Oct. 5 and was freed the next day on a $10,000 bond. In Florida, video voyeurism is a

third-degree felony for an offender aged 19 or older, according to Sgt. Chas Maier of the Ocala Police Department. The maximum penalty is five years in prison. According to a report, a witness told police they saw Sebring using a red video camera to “record up women’s skirts.” See VOYEURISM, Page B2

Man arrested for fight in gas station ELYRIA — An intoxicated man became violent and physically assaulted customers at Speedway after he lost his wallet, according to a police report from Thursday night. Joseph Bowles, 27, of Elyria, was at Speedway, 710 Griswold Road, to buy beer and put his wallet down on the counter. He then started to look for his wallet, forgeting where he placed it. A female customer told him, “Your wallet is on the counter with your (expletive) beer,” Bowles got angry and called her a name, the report said. Bowles punched her in the right side of the head and started to wrestle with her on the floor, according to the report. During the struggle, Bowles also punched witnesses and employees who tried to break up the fight, the report stated. He was arrested and charged with assault and resisting arrest.

Caller says father harmed baby in Huron HURON — A 1-year-old baby was returned to his mother Thursday afternoon with bruises on his face and a bite mark on his wrist after spending the day with his father, according to a police report. The mother received a call saying her son’s father was physically abusing her child. The mother just started allowing visitation. The caller told the woman the baby urinated on the man’s bed while he was being changed and the father picked up the baby by the neck and shook him. The caller then said he slammed the baby on his bed and struck the baby on the forehead with an open fist, according to the report. Police are still looking for the suspect.

Son donates $50,000 to LCCC scholarship named for his father, Manuel Serrano By Morning Journal Staff news@MorningJournal.com Twitter: @MorningJournal

ELYRIA — The Lorain County Community College Foundation received $50,000 donation by David Serrano to the Manuel Marín Serrano Scholarship Fund. David Serrano, one of Manuel Serrano’s four surviving children, is a graduate of Admiral King High School and works as an attorney in California. The Serrano family established the Manuel Marín Serrano Scholarship in 2005 as a tribute to their

father and husband. Manuel Serrano was born in Laredo, Texas, but spent most of his childhood in Lorain. Following his graduation from Lorain High School in 1938, Manuel enlisted in the U.S. Navy where he served for three years and was awarded numerous awards and medals. In 1947, Manuel Serrano married Amparo Magdaleno and the couple raised four children in Lorain while he worked at U.S. Steel. Even though he spent his retirement in Southern California, he never forgot his roots.

This scholarship was created as a way to pass on Manuel Serrano’s passion for hard work and his belief in the power of a good education. The Manuel Marín Serrano Scholarship Fund is awarded annually to Lorain County Community College students who are involved in their community, with preference given to those from the Latino community, and those who demonstrate financial need. To date, seven students have received awards from the fund, and the scholarship has made a critical difference in their academic futures.

Woman arrested for heroin sales at home By Morning Journal Staff news@MorningJournal.com Twitter: @MorningJournal

LORAIN — A woman sold heroin out of her home was arrested yesterday Lorain police said. Enid Sanabria, 47, 1329 W. 11th St., was charged with trafficking in heroin, possession of heroin, possession of criminal tools, possession of drug paraphernalia and permitting drug abuse through real estate, Sgt. Tom Nimon of the department’s Narcotics Bureau said. About 10:30 a.m. yesterday, Narcotics Bureau detectives searched Sanabria’s home. The search was based on an investigation spanning two months because police received complaints from neighbors about possible drug sales at the home, Nimon said. “During our investigation, we discovered Ms. Sanabria was in fact distributing heroin from this residence to several people,” Nimon said. Sanabria was the only person in the residence at the time of the search. Police found at least $1,000 worth of heroin, along with scales, needles and syringes, Nimon said. “The quantity that we seized from her today could have been sold in quantities for dealers and users as well,” he said.

“The quantity that we seized from her today could have been sold in quantities for dealers and users as well.” Sgt. Tom Nimon Sanabria is scheduled to be arraigned Monday at Lorain Municipal Court. The investigation stemmed from information from people who live in the neighborhood. Residents told police people were coming to residences, knocking on doors and asking about drugs available, Nimon said. He also credited Detective Corey Middlebrooks’ work in the case. Anyone who wishes to report suspicious activity or drug sales can call the Narcotics Bureau at 2042108.

FALL LOAN SPECIAL! 10 YEAR FIXED 2.500% 2.666% APR

NORTH RIDGEVILLE — Hispanic and Latino Americans will continue growing into a political force in the United States, the nephew of President George W. Bush said. George Prescott Bush was the keynote speaker to dozens of students, faculty and guests yesterday at the Diversity Forum of Lake Ridge Academy. “The Latino electorate is growing in size and importance,” said Bush, the son of Jeb Bush, the former governor of Florida, and his wife, Columba Bush, a philanthropist and native of Mexico. He also is the grandson of President George H.W. Bush. When asked, Bush, 36, endorsed Republican challenger Mitt Romney over Democratic President Barack Obama, and he is “not saying no” to a future in politics. He also is a founder of the Hispanic Republicans of Texas group. See BUSH, Page B2

He said every year local authorities track down felony domestic violence offenders and bring justice to assault victims. “This time of year we dedicate a good portion of the month to serve arrest warrants for violent offenders, restraining orders and other domestic violence related crimes,” he said. Local authorities have arrested three of the 12 Lorain County fugitives wanted for felony domestic violence. Police arrested Chris D. Troutman, 18, of Lorain; William Thornburg, 39, of Elyria; and Jeffrey D. Isom, 46, of Lorain. “For it to be a felony charge, See AUTHORITIES, Page B2

Bob Gibbs, a Republican, and Democratic challenger Joyce Gibbs Hea l y- Ab ra m s are vying for the district. The position is a two-year term and as of 2012 the annual salary is $174,000. Both candidates touted their experience Healyin business as a Abrams s t ro n g b a c k ground for the financial considerations in Congress. They also said job creation is the most important issue facing the 7th District and Ohio. However, Gibbs and HealyAbrams offered different plans on how revive the economy. Gibbs has a “4 Point Plan” that focuses on fiscal responsibility, creating a pro-jobs climate, fixing the tax code and developing home-grown energy to spark the U.S. economy. Healy-Abrams has promoted her own job creation plan through expanded credit for small businesses, tax incentives for innovation and bringing jobs

back to the United States. She also called for tax credits for companies that buy American and an audit of the tax code. The 7th District includes all or parts of Lorain, Huron, Medina, Ashland, Richland, Knox, Holmes, Coshocton, Tuscarawas and St a r k counties. In Lorain County, the 7th District includes: Avon and North Ridgeville; the villages of LaGrange, Rochester and Wellington; and Brighton, Columbia, Eaton, Grafton, Huntington, LaGrange, Penfield, Rochester and Wellington townships. • Gibbs, 58, of Lakeville, is seeking his second term in the House. He previously served in the Ohio Senate from 2009 to 2011 and in the Ohio House of Representatives from 2003 to 2009. Gibbs is the founder of Hidden Hollow Farms, a livestock production farm producing mostly market hogs in Holmes County. He has a degree from the Ohio State University Agricultural Technical Institute and has served as president of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation. He and his wife, Jody, have three grown children.

Man slumped over in car stopped on road By Morning Journal Staff news@MorningJournal.com Twitter: @MorningJournal

LORAIN — A man found slumped over in the driver’s seat of his girlfriend’s car on Oberlin Avenue was arrested for driving under suspension, driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, impeding the flow of traffic, possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. According to a police report, Luis Otero, 25, Lorain, was in a car stopped southbound on Oberlin Avenue and woke up after an officer opened the driver’s side door. Once Otero got out of the car,

VOYEURISM From Page B1 The witness also said his wife came up to him and said that Sebring had videotaped up her skirt. Police asked Sebring if they could look through his video camera to see if what the witness said was true. Sebring said “go ahead” and handed the video camera to

he was unsteady and officers patted him down for weapons. Officers said that Otero was slurring his words and it was hard to understand where he was coming from and where he was going. Otero told police he had one, two, three, or four drinks and told officers something about following his brother but it was hard to understand. He refused to take the field sobriety tests and the blood alcohol content test and was arrested, the report said. Officers searched the car and found a small bag of marijuana. Otero was booked into Lorain City Jail.

one of the officers. When the officer looked through the videos, he identified five women of which videos were taken between their legs and up their skirts. Police also were able to see that they were all taken at the Craftoberfest event at Pi on Southwest Broadway Street in downtown Ocala because of the recorded date, the report stated. After speaking with the

women, police discovered that the video recording was done without their knowledge or permission. Maier said from what he understands, Sebring bought a house in Ocala, but still lives in Ohio. According to the arrest affidavit, the mailing address is typed out as North Ridge, Ohio, but Maier said they made a mistake and meant to put North Ridgeville.

If they’re not there we keep looking until we find them.” Keffer said anonymous tips are provided by friends or family members who are concerned for the safety of their loved ones. “We receive calls from all over the county and sometimes from out of state,” he said. “There’s around 18,000 offenders wanted nationwide.” About 170 law-enforcement agencies from 22 different states participated in last

But we have to balance the budget the right way — not on the backs of the middle class and seniors on fixed incomes.” Web: www.healyabramsforcongress.com/ and www. joyceforjobs.com Facebook: JoyceforOhio Twitter: @JoyceforOhio.

Results from the 2011 sweep include: • More than 4,000 nationwide attempts to serve arrest warrants. • More than 800 arrest warrants served nationwide. • Nearly 900 law enforcement officers participated. • 170 agencies from 22 states participated. For those who have any information on the whereabouts of any of the fugitives, contact the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force at (866) 4WANTED. “My job is very rewarding,” Keffer said. “Anytime you lock up someone who has committed any kind of crime, it’s very satisfying to know they are off the street and won’t hurt anyone else.”

BUSH From Page B1 But Bush told the crowd of more than 325 students, faculty and visitors that his presentation was a study of political science, not a stump speech. He shared his thoughts as he spoke for more than an hour, using projections of maps, facts, figures and YouTube videos. Citing U.S. Census data, Bush traced the growth of Hispanic and Latino voters from 1980 to 2010. Many of those residents still live in California, the Southwest, Texas, Florida, Chicago and New York, but they are growing in other areas such as Salt Lake City, Denver and in the Mid-Atlantic States, Bush said. There are 23.7 million eligible Hispanic and Latino voters in the United States, Bush said. Projections estimate they could become up to 33 percent of the U.S. population by 2050, he said. “Politically, Hispanics are just beginning to flex their muscles,” Bush said. Hispanic voters are 15 percent of the U.S. population, but account for 50 percent of the net population growth in the country, Bush said. “It’s an unbelievable statistic,” he said. But the “most problematic” data was the graph showing the difference between the number of eligible Hispanic voters and the ones who actually cast ballots, Bush said. Hispanic and Latino voters can be a large bloc, but they cannot have political power unless they get out and vote, he said. He encouraged everyone in the crowd to do the same. “So as I said, don’t forget to vote, you’ve got to register, you’ve got to utilize your constitutional duty,”

MORNING JOURNAL/RICK PAYERCHIN

George Prescott Bush speaks to students yesterday at Lake Ridge Academy at its Diversity Forum. Bush said. “You can’t complain about the world around you, you can’t complain about your country, if you don’t get involved.” In 2008, Hispanic and Latino voters favored Obama two to one over Sen. John McCain, Bush said. However, he noted his uncle, George W. Bush, secured 40 percent of the Hispanic vote in 2008 because the elder Bush reached out to them. The younger Bush also played a video of his own commercial in which he spoke English and Spanish to endorse his uncle. It was one of the first outreach ads from the Republican Party to Hispanic voters, Bush said. “I’m not taking credit, but that was part of it,” Bush said as the crowd chuckled. Bush also said he want-

ed to demystify the belief that immigration is the most important issue to Hispanic and Latino voters. It is an important issue, but immigration often ranks below top concerns about “kitchen table issues” — education, the cost of living, healthcare and the economy, Bush said. The presentation went beyond raw data. Bush answered questions from students and played YouTube video spoofs about politics. “If you can’t laugh at the political process, maybe we shouldn’t be in the business of politics,” Bush said. Two of the videos are: • FedEx Office TV ad, “The Candidates:” bit.ly/ ROhywj • Mike Huckabee ad, “Chuck Norris Approved” bit.ly/TyvUge

Whites only group adopts Ky. highway section NEWPORT, Ky. (AP) — A whites only group has adopted a stretch of the AA Highway in northern Kentucky through the state’s anti-litter program. National Socialist Movement member Geoffrey Rash, of Alexandria, told The Kentucky Enquirer that the organization is not a hate group, even though it uses a swastika as a symbol. Rash says the symbol shows they are socialists, not Nazis. “We feel that a national socialist structure, it worked in Germany, things just got a little crazy and they entered a world war,” Rash said. The group adopted a two mile stretch of highway between Cold Spring and Wilder. Kentucky Transportation Cabinet spokesman Chuck Wolfe said the state does not have a restrictive policy on the program because the point is to encourage people to pick up litter. Transportation Cabinet district spokeswoman Nancy Wood said people have been calling about the sign designating the National Socialists as responsible for the cleanup since Oct. 1. The program encourages churches, businesses and any community groups to clean up at least a two-mile stretch of highway. In exchange, the state installs a sign as long as the cleanups are occurring. Wood said she does not know what type of group the Na-

tional Socialist Movement is, only that a man representing the group promised to clean up the highway at least four times a year. Rash said the entire Kentuckygroupoftheorganization will be responsible for maintaining the highway. “It makes us happy,” he said of the highway cleanup. “I love my state and my country. This just another way to give back the community.” The website for the National Socialist Movement, www.

nsm88.org, “core beliefs” statement begins with the phrase “defending the rights of white people everywhere, preservation of our European culture and heritage.” Photos on the group’s website of a march on Frankfort focusing on illegal immigration on April 21 show members in paramilitary uniforms wearing swastikas. Several of the people in the photos are wearing full length white robes with white hoods atop their heads.

AVON LAKE — Nearly every high school football team starts its preseason goal list with winning their conference. Avon Lake has put itself in position t o w i n i t s 1 5 t h Southwestern Conference crown in the last 16 seasons escaping with a 21-17 victory over a gutty Olmsted Falls squad on Friday night. Avon Lake (7-2, 5-1) went up by four with 6:33 left in the game, but the win was not secured until senior Jimmy Hessel picked off two fourth-quarter passes to give him eight interceptions on the year. The Shoremen can clinch a share of the SWC title with a win over Amherst next week. The winner of next week’s Westlake/ Brecksville game will be cochampions for 2012. “I asked the kids this week if they knew the definition of a trap game,” Shoremen head coach Dave Dlugosz said. “I think after tonight they understand exactly what it is.” The first half scoring all came on the first two drives of the game as Avon Lake opened the game with the ball at its own 45-yard line following a short kick to keep the ball away from Hessel.

EATON TWP. — Midview took a step closer to earning a playoff berth with a victory over Elyria Catholic Friday night, but it may have come at a huge cost for the Middies.

Callaway rushed for eight yards on two carries and completed one pass for nine yards. An Elyria Catholic personal foul helped out the Middie drive, which was capped off by a 20-yard touchdown run by Brett Bartone. After a three-and-out, mired by 15 yards of penalties by the Panthers, the Middies were back in business with the ball on their own 49. Once again Midview kept the ball on the ground, as Callaway rushed for 16 yards on four carries and completed one pass for 15 yards. On third-and-goal on the Panther 4-yard line, Elyria Catholic finally caught a break. Callaway took a quarterback draw up the middle, but before he crossed the goal line, he was hit and fumbled the ball into the end zone.

On the very next play Novak finished the job himself, rushing from eight yards out to give his team a 7-0 lead. It didn’t take long for North Olmsted to strike again. On the Comets next possession the Eagles defense came up huge again, this time intercepting Lamb on the second play of the drive.

We played about even for all but that crazy five-minute flurry. It was a very sloppy game and we didn’t get the job done, but it definitely wasn’t because lack of effort.” This was a huge win for the Eagles who now improve to 7-2 overall and 4-2 in the SWC.

shoremen From Page C1 David Winkel opened with a long pass to Max Seipel, who got behind the defense, for an apparent touchdown, but the wet ball slipped through his hands as it did to players all night. Three plays later, though, Hessel lined up at running back and took the ball 13 yards to take a 7-0 lead just 1:24 into the game. The Bulldogs answered in long drawn-out 12-play, 65-yard drive in 6:17 to knot the score at 7-7. Fresh off a 50-carry, 307-yard night against Amherst last week, Mike Gib was featured in the drive carrying the ball eight times for 26 yards, including a 4-yard run off left tackle for a touchdown. Gib hurt Avon Lake all night long rolling for 224 yards on 29 carries and a pair of scores. He also snagged one pass for 23 yards. Avon Lake had the only real scoring threat in the second quarter getting inside the Bulldogs 10, but a possible touchdown toss to Matt Morissette was broken up, and then

a 28-yard field goal attempt by Alex Voloshen was blocked as the clock went to zero. The Bulldogs use that momentum to shock the Shoremen on their first drive of the second half going 55 yards in just four plays getting a 3-yard run by Gib, a 41-yard strike from Drew Meketa to Turner Jones and then Gib finished off the drive with a 41-yard rumble for a 14-7 lead. This time it was Avon Lake bouncing back to knot the game at 14-14 on a 43-yard toss from Winkel to tight end Kyle Kuhar with 8:49 in the third quarter. The Bulldogs showed they would not go away quietly despite their 1-7 record putting together another huge drive covering 88 yards in 13 plays with all but one coming on the ground as Olmsted Falls found a soft spot in the Shoremen defense. Gib had 44 yards on a drive that netted a 29-yard field by Chris Fox to once again give the Bulldogs the lead at 17-14 with 2:22 left in the third quarter. After a pair of punts carried the game into the final quarter, Avon Lake put together an old-fashioned

Shoremen drive going 80 yards in nine plays with Olmsted Falls putting 10 players on the defensive line of scrimmage on most of the plays. Wyatt Ohm started the drive with a 30-yard run off the right side and he finished the drive with a 2-yard run across the goal line to give Avon Lake its first lead since 7-0 in the opening quarter. Olmsted Falls opened up the passing game at that point and Hessel twice took the ball away from the Bulldogs with a pick at midfield and another on the Shoremen 20 with Olmsted Falls driving with 1:20 left in the game to seal the win and a shot at the SWC crown next Friday night. “Olmsted Falls played real, real well tonight and we expected that from them,” Dlugosz said about his 199th career coaching victory. “In that first half we had some soft spots on defense that we are going to have to take care of this week. You can’t play ten games of perfection, it just never happens. “All you can ask for are opportunities and when you have the opportunity to win the SWC you better take advantage of it.”

The other one came to an end on a turnover-on-downs. “We had some miscues when we didn’t do our technique right and they took advantage of it,” Campo said. “We got some things we can learn form and straighten out even in week nine. Our goal is to get better and we’re going to do that.” Paul continued his workhorse load in the second half. Behind stellar offensive line play, he continued to rack up yards and touchdowns. After Berea scored on a fumble return, Paul answered it with a 29-yard run to put Westlake up 28-8 midway through the third quarter. He capped off his spectacular night with his fourth touchdown of the game from two yards out on his 30th and final carry. For the season, he has amassed almost 1,300 yards rushing and 18 touchdowns. “He’s (Paul) our leader,” Campo said. “He’s tough as nails on both sides of the ball. He gets the tough yards, breaks tackles and. makes plays. He’s outstanding.” Feeling the wear-and-tear of the game and the chilling rain falling on him, Paul was more than happy about what Westlake accomplished. “Right now the only thing I can think about is week 11 because I’m really pumped about that,” Paul said. “The offensive line got a great push in particular Ismael Shafei. He was really going at it. All of them did a great job.” Westlake hosts Brecksville next Friday with a chance to be conference champions for the first time since 1984.

Pinkston hospitalized with blood clots By JEFF SCHUDEL

jschudel@MorningJournal.com @jsbrownsinsider

BEREA —Left guard Jason Pinkston was hospitalized and is in the Cleveland Clinic because of blood clots in his lungs. He will not play Sunday in Indianapolis, Browns coach Pat Shurmur revealed after practice Friday. John Greco, who subbed for Pinkston last week when Pinkston became ill in the game against the Bengals, is

replacing Pinkston. Pinkston talked about his condition on Twitter Friday afternoon. “The news is true I’ve been hospitalized with blood clots in my lungs very thankful or medical staff did a great job of taking action,” Pinkston tweeted. “And catching it at an early stage it’s obviously clear I won’t be playing for some time but more importantly I’m thankful to be alive.”

Pinkston left the game against the Bengals because of illness. He was limited in practice Wednesday but did not practice Thursday or Friday. This will be the first start missed by the 2011 fifthround draft choice, who last year was thrust into a starting role when Eric Steinbach was forced to miss the season after undergoing back surgery. “We’ll determine through the week if it’s going to be an extended period,” Shurmur

said. “He’s getting treatment. I’ve talked to him. He’s doing fine.” Shurmur planned to visit Pinkston as soon as he could after wrapping up business for the day at Browns headquarters in Berea. Teammates were naturally concerned. Left tackle Joe Thomas said the situation was “scary.” Greco dresses next to Pinkston in the locker See BROWNS, Page C6

Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer and his Buckeyes will look to continue its Tour de Redemption on Saturday.

Buckeyes looking for more revenge By JOHN KAMPF

jkampf@MorningJournal.com @JKBuckeyes

COLUMBUS — The Ohio State football team will look to continue its Tour de Redemption on Saturday when Purdue visits Ohio Stadium for a noon kickoff. After wins over Michigan State and Nebraska, the Buckeyes (7-0, 3-0) are 2-0 this season against teams that defeated them last season as part of an uncharacteristic 6-7 campaign. Purdue, which defeated Ohio State, 26-23, last season, would make it three redemption wins in a row for the Buckeyes, should they win. “You always have that in the back of your mind,” offensive lineman Jack Mewhort said of avenging losses of the previous season. With good reason. Last Nov. 12 in West Lafayette, Ind., Ohio State thought it had scored the game-winning touchdown when Jordan Hall caught a 13-yard touchdown pass from Braxton Miller with 55 seconds remaining in the game. All OSU needed was a Drew Basil conversion kick. It didn’t happen. Purdue’s Bruce Gaston blocked the extra-point try, leaving the game tied at 20 and eventually sending it to overtime. Ohio State got a 33-yard field goal from Basil for the 23-20 lead in overtime, but Purdue’s Robert Marve scored on a 1-yard run on the Boilermakers’ overtime possession to snag the win. “The number one thing I remember is that play at the end where Braxton threw the ball to Jordan. It was a crazy play,” Mewhort said. “Obviously, it didn’t go the way we wanted at the end, but I remember us fighting hard.” The Buckeyes expect another spirited performance from the Boilermakers (3-3, 0-2) on Saturday. While Purdue has lost two league games in a row, 44-13 to Michigan and 38-14 to Wisconsin, the Buckeyes are approaching the Boilermakers with caution. That’s because the Boilermakers run a spread type of offense that has given the Buckeyes trouble all season. See BUCKEYES, Page C5

Pargo, Sloan battling to back up Irving By BOB FINNAN

rfinnan@MorningJournal.com @BobCavsInsider

INDEPENDENCE — The Cavaliers claim money won’t cloud their decision of keeping the best 15 players on the roster. They are facing a difficult task at backup point guard behind Kyrie Irving. Holdover Donald Sloan and newcomer Jeremy Pargo both appear to have the talent to play in the NBA. They

are likely fighting for one roster spot. Possibly obscuring the issue is the fact that Sloan’s $762,195 contract is not guaranteed, while Pargo’s $1 million deal is. “I wouldn’t say it’s always a money deal, but sometimes money comes into play,” Sloan said. “We’ll just see what happens at the end — whether me and Pargo are neck in neck, whether we make a decision to get rid of

me, or whether we’re going to keep three point guards. It’s definitely right around the corner.” Coach Byron Scott said Sloan runs the offense a little more efficiently than Pargo, who was acquired in a trade from Memphis on July 25. “I think Donald’s strengths are the fact he’s been in the system a little longer, so he knows the offense a little better and quite frankly he’s done a better job of running

the offense when he’s been in there,” Scott said. “Jeremy’s strengths are his communication and toughness and he’s learning how to run the offense.” The biggest issue with both players is turnovers. The last thing the Cavs want is for Irving to come off the court and have things completely unravel, like it did in Philadelphia on Wednesday. See CAVS, Page C5

Tigers again face long layoff before World Series By NOAH TRISTER AP Baseball Writer

DETROIT — The next few days may feel a bit familiar to Detroit manager Jim Leyland. The Tigers will have to wait a while before starting the World Series. Detroit won the AL pennant Thursday, wrapping up a four-game sweep of the New York Yankees. Now the Tigers won’t play again until next Wednesday, when they open on the road against the winner of the NL championship series between St. Louis and San

Francisco. In 2006, Leyland’s Tigers swept Oakland in the ALCS, finishing that series Oct. 14. The World Series didn’t start until Oct. 21, and Detroit lost to St. Louis in five games. “I do think the lull between our playoff and the World Series did work against us in 2006,” Leyland said recently. “Now, that’s not to take anything away from the St. Louis Cardinals. But all of a sudden, our emotion went from so high to just a blah, looking at each other for

six days of staring at each other with really no action. That’s hard.” The Tigers have workouts planned at Comerica Park from Saturday through Monday. The big question now is how the layoff will affect Detroit’s sterling starting rotation, which has a 1.02 ERA so far in the postseason. The Tigers breezed past the Yankees, with the starters allowing only two runs in the series. Justin Verlander made three starts in the playoffs, allowing only two runs — in the first in-

ning of his first start and the ninth inning of his most recent start. If the trend continues, Detroit should be very tough to beat, especially with an offense that finally broke out for eight runs in Game 4 against the Yankees. Verlander was a rookie in 2006, and the team didn’t make the playoffs again until last year, when the Tigers lost in the ALCS. The ace right-hander can appreciate the journey a bit See TIGERS, Page C5

iews and reviews from a week’s worth of October baseball: Live by the home run, die by the home run — the Yankees are dead. All season long it was pointed out that the Yankees, who led the free world in home runs, rely too much on home runs to do their scoring. It was pointed out by many during Speaking of the regular sports season that the By Jim Ingraham Yankees could be in trouble in the playoffs, when they would be facing much better pitching which would likely result in them hitting far fewer home runs. That’s exactly what happened. A major power outage, leading to a Yankee playoff outage. After hitting .265 as a team and averaging nearly five runs per game (4.96) in the regular season, the Yankees, in getting swept by the Tigers, hit .157 and averaged 1.5 runs per game. Conclusion: the worst team a $209 million payroll can buy. ••• Total number of days spent in first place during the regular season this year: the 94-loss Indians 38, the World Series-bound Tigers 34. ••• One of the worst features of the Yankees’ habit of scooping up the best players when they become free agents is that the Yankees not only get those good players, they get them in their primes. Example: prior to his meltdown in Game 4 vs. the Tigers, when he looked like a pitcher who wasn’t 100 percent physically, CC Sabathia in 12 career postseason starts for the Yankees was 7-1 with a 3.10 ERA. In his five career postseason starts for other teams (four for the Indians, one for Milwaukee) he was 2-3 with a 7.92 ERA. ••• Do you realize how close Jhonny Peralta came to being the MVP of the ALCS? The award went to Delmon Young, who hit .353 with 2 home runs. Peralta hit .389 with 2 home runs. ••• Was Yankee outfielder Nick Swisher bitten by a bad case of free agentitis in the postseason? Swisher, a career .030 (1-for-33) hitter with runners in scoring position in the postseason, was 5-for-30 (.167) with

Yankees’ CC Sabathia, left, Derek Jeter, middle, and Ichiro Suzuki walk toward the dugout earlier in the season. The Yankees, who have a $209 million payroll, proved they are the worst team money can buy. no homers and 2 RBI in this year’s tournament. In the postseason over the last three years he has hit .155 (11-for-71). Those numbers won’t fly in New York, but if I’m the Indians, who go into the offseason without a single legitimate everyday left fielder on their roster, I’d still take a run at him. ••• Everywhere you look in the postseason you see ex-Indians, including the mercurial Marco Scutaro, the Giants second baseman who has played for seven other big league organizations since the Indians traded him to Milwaukee in the seven-player deal in 2000 that brought Bob Wickman to Cleveland. At age 36, Scutaro finished eighth in the National League in hitting this year with a .306 batting average. While everyone was trying to figure out where that came from, Scutaro was steamrolled by that ridiculously illegal slide by Matt Holliday in the NLCS. Incredibly, Giants pitchers never retaliated for the slide. ••• I said it before and I’ll say it again. Oakland’s Billy Beane this year had maybe the greatest year any general manager has ever had, in any sport, ever. You simply don’t win division titles with an all-rookie starting rotation in the month of September — but Beane did. Sit down and examine all the many trades and free agent signings Beane made in constructing the 2012 A’s. He didn’t miss on any of them. Amazing.

••• Speaking of remarkable performances, how about Cardinals rookie manager Mike Matheny? All he had to do was follow one of the most legendary managers ever in Tony La Russa, who was coming off a World Series championship. Matheny had never managed anywhere, at any level, and he not only takes the Cardinals right back to the post-season, but maybe right back to the World Series. Many teams do it with stars, the Cardinals do it with baseball players. ••• I still can’t believe the Tigers swept the Yankees without even needing a closer. ••• The only team that had a worse postseason than the Yankees was TBS’ graphics department, which at various times during broadcasts identified color man “Carl Ripken Jr.” and, at another point, Hall of Famer “Willie Mayes”. Very funny. ••• On the other hand, give TBS credit for its use of John Smoltz as a color analyst. Smoltz is a breath of fresh air, mainly because he excels in the areas most important for doing that job well: He’s smart, doesn’t deal in clichés, doesn’t take himself too seriously, and he knows how to say informative, entertaining things using a minimum number of words. ••• Whatever happened to the Texas Rangers? jingraham@MorningJournal.com @jitribeinsider

Kahne qualifies on pole for Cup race at Kansas By DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Every championship contender knew that starting position would be paramount at repaved Kansas Speedway, where getting to the front after the green flag drops could present a problem. Kasey Kahne and Clint Bowyer will have the luxury of starting there. Kahne earned the pole for Sunday’s race by shattering the track record with a lap of 191.360 mph, and Bowyer qualified behind Michael Waltrip Racing teammate Mark Martin in third Friday. “That was a fast lap,” Bowyer said, basically summing up the lap turned by everyone. “It’s unreal how much that gets your attention.” Kahne is fifth in points with five races left in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, while Bowyer is fourth after his win last week at Charlotte. Both of them are chasing leader Brad

Keselowski, five-time champion Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin. He’ll be one of the drivers trying to meander their way through the field over the repaved surface after qualifying 25th. The only Chase driver to qualify worse was threetime champion Tony Stewart, will start 33rd for Sunday’s race. All 43 cars in the field broke the previous track record 180.856 mph set by Matt Kenseth in 2005, though that came as no surprise. Drivers were turning laps in excess of 190 during practice, and cars were approaching 205 mph before letting up entering the corners. Speeds not seen over the track since IndyCars were running on it. “All the drivers are highfiving each other because we came back here alive,” joked Kyle Busch, who qualified fourth. “The minimum speed through the corner is amazing.”

Kansas Speedway underwent a massive renovation over the summer that replaced the old, worn-out surface with new pavement while creating variable banking in the corners. It was a necessary step after massive chunks of asphalt chipped off the track during the April race weekend. Still, the decision was met with consternation from many drivers who have seen multiple lanes and the ability to pass disappear at other tracks that have undergone re s u r f a c i n g projects. Martin said he’s concerned that one lane along the bottom of the track will make it difficult to pass. That’s been the case at some other repaved tracks. “It’s a new track now. I mean, it really is, and we’re going to have to learn as we go,” Martin said. “We can’t find out tomorrow in practice what the track is going to be like Sunday. It’s just not

From Page C3 The 6-foot-2, 219-pound Pargo is averaging 2.7 points, a team-high 4.7 assists and a team-high 3.0 turnovers. Sloan checks in at 7.0 points, 2.7 assists and 2.3 turnovers. Pargo’s assist numbers are good, considering he’s averaging just 19 minutes in the three games in which he’s appeared. But there is a disclaimer. “That’s not good when your turnovers damn near match it,” he said. “I want to cut down on those.” He said it’s all about focus. “(I’ve been) trying to make plays early or not staying within the system,” Pargo said. “It’s a little out of character. “I want to stay within myself, stay within the system and continue to get better.” The plan is for Irving to play about 35 minutes a game. The backup will get the remaining 12-14 minutes, at least early on. Eventually, rookie Dion Waiters might get some minutes at point guard, but he’s just trying to find his way. “He has enough on his plate,” Scott said. The 6-3, 205-pound Sloan played 33 games with the Cavs last season, including 11 in the starting lineup. That familiarity with the offense has been beneficial to Sloan, a former boxer. “It’s a business,” Sloan said. “A lot of time, it’s not but about your ability. It’s just a numbers game, sometimes, about being in an unfortunate situation or whether your contract’s not guaranteed. At the end of the day, I believe in myself, that I’d bounce back and do what I love.” Sloan has improved his jump shooting, but Scott

This track is coming in very slowly.” Hamlin qualified ninth after wrecking the car he intended to use for Sunday’s race when he clipped the wall entering Turn 1 near the start of testing on Thursday. Regan Smith will start 40th in place of Dale Earnhardt Jr., who is missing his second straight race. Earnhardt pulled himself from the car after sustaining two concussions in a six-week span — the first during a tire test at Kansas, the second during a massive wreck at Talladega. Smith was seventh-fastest in practice but got sideways during his qualifying lap Friday. AJ Allmendinger qualified 13th in his second race with Phoenix Racing. The team had been slated to use Smith for the final six races of the season after Kurt Busch left early to get a start on next year’s job with Furniture Row Racing.

Picking up options

The Cavs have exercised the third-year contract options on power forward Tristan Thompson and Irving on Friday. Thompson is scheduled to earn $4.3 million in 2013-14, while Irving will make $5.9 million. “Kyrie and Tristan exemplify what we want to be as a team and franchise, both as players and as people,” Cavs general manager Chris Grant said in a prepared statement. “They are dedicated, hardworking, talented individuals and we’re looking forward to their continued growth and success here in Cleveland as Cavaliers.” Irving, the reigning Rookie of the Year, averaged 18.5 points and 5.4 assists last season. The 6-9, 240-pound Thompson averaged 8.2 points and 6.5 rebounds on his way to being named to the All-Rookie second team.

His job is definitely not out there hoisting up jump shots.” Scott said there’s a slight possibility he could keep all three point guards. That probably won’t happen, since Daniel Gibson can also give him a few minutes at point guard if needed.

Whatever he says, I’m going to try to take the reins, follow his lead and try to get better.” Many observers think Sloan has the edge over Pargo. Sloan didn’t want to think that way. “I really don’t like to be one of the people that believe they’ve done enough already, and kind of get content and settled,” he said. “But I think I’ve done a good job. Enough? Probably not. We still have a little bit more

It takes everybody,” Valverde said. “I’ll be ready for the World Series.” Max Scherzer might not mind the layoff either. The right-hander’s throwing shoulder acted up toward the end of the regular season, and he started Game 4 of both the division series and LCS, coming out in the sixth inning of both. “Last year (in the playoffs) I really tried to relax and slow it down because of the situation and that didn’t work,” Scherzer said. “This year I was able to get pumped up in the right situations.” The pitching staff has performed so well sluggers Miguel Cabrera and Prince Fielder

They are being outrebounded, 44.4-40-8, through six preseason games. He said their fundamentals have been lacking. “We keep watching the birds,” Scott said. “The shot goes up and guys are just running past us or hitting us and pushing us under the basket. It’s going to really be emphasized in practice.” • Teams have 90 seconds after the final introductions to be standing at the center circle and be ready for tipoff. If not, they will be whistled for a delay-of-game penalty, just like the Cavs were before the Washington game last week.

Love in the hunt at his own tournament By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer

ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. — Davis Love III might have found the perfect tonic for any Ryder Cup hangover — playing golf, and playing well on a Sea Island course he knows better than anyone. In his third straight tournament since his U.S. team lost a big lead on the final day at Medinah, Love hit a 6-iron to 3 feet on the 17th hole that put him in the final group going into the weekend at the McGladrey Classic, where he is becoming more than just a tournament host. Love was one shot behind Arjun Atwal, who is running out of time to keep his PGA Tour card. Atwal made an adjustment in his putting stroke earlier in the week and watched it pay off in a big way at Sea Island for a 63, his best score of the year. Atwal, whose two-year exemption from winning in Greensboro, N.C., expires this year, is No. 175 on the money list and has only two tournaments left to finish in the top 125. He opened with three straight birdies and took the outright lead with a wedge into 5 feet on the fifth hole, his 14th of the round. “I’m in a desperate situation,” At-

wal said. “I got no choice — either win or finish in the top two. So I’ve just got to grind it out.” Atwal was at 10-under 130, though this tournament has a distinct Ryder Cup feel going into the final two days. It starts with Love, the American captain, who moved to Sea Island when he was 14. What helped more than his course knowledge was switching to a belly putter that doesn’t quite reach his belly, and not even his shirt “unless it’s untucked.” Brian Bateman, who is much shorter than Love, once used it as a belly putter and Love figures the fact that it’s a heavy club and has a different look could only help him. “I’ve been messing around with this putter for well over a year, I just haven’t had the nerve to put it in play,” Love said. “But I had two proams this week so I said, ‘This is the best time — my home greens, two pro-ams on my home course.’ So I tried it out and the first day I use it, I made eight birdies. So it worked.” Love was tied with Jim Furyk, who hasn’t played since his bogeybogey finish in the Ryder Cup and is making his final PGA Tour ap-

Furyk was plodding along Sea Island, a few birdies on his card, when he rolled in an 18-foot birdie putt on the 14th, converted a two-putt birdie from 100 feet away just off the green, and made a third straight birdie on the 16th from about 12 feet. He wound up with a 65. “I felt a little rusty on the way in,”

Furyk said. “I have a lot of confidence in my ball striking right now, but when you don’t play a lot, sometimes it’s the course management, making the good decisions. And so far that’s all kind of coming back to me slowly and I’ve kind of gained momentum as the last two rounds have gone on.” David Toms was tied with them until he made bogey on the final hole for a 67, though he was still only two shots out of the lead. Bud Cauley, who shared the first-round lead, wasn’t as crisp with his irons and had to settle for a 70. He also was two behind, still in great shape as he pursues his first PGA Tour win. Gavin Coles joined them at 132 after six birdies in a round of 65. Despite all the familiarity at the

top of the leaderboard, the McGladrey Classic remained wide open. The cut was at 1-under 209, meaning all 88 players were within nine shots of the lead. There has been very little wind along the South Carolina coast, and while the weather has been mild and dry, enough rain has fallen in the early morning hours that the greens remained soft. Love hit one 7-iron that plugged in its pitch mark. Such ideal conditions allowed just about everyone to stay in the game. Chad Campbell, who hit all 18 greens in regulation, was among those at 7-under 133, while Vijay Singh (68) and Jason Day (67) were four shots behind.

Goodell appoints Tagliabue to hear player appeals By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer

NEW YORK — NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell appointed predecessor Paul Tagliabue to hear the appeals of four players suspended in the Saints’ bounty scandal. Goodell said Friday he notified Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith, Scott Fujita and Anthony Hargrove, as well as the players’ union, that Tagliabue would be the hearing officer to “decide the appeals and bring the matter to a prompt and fair conclusion.” The union and the four players had asked Goodell to recuse himself, contending he could not fairly rule. Their second set of appeals will be heard Oct. 30. “Any time we move towards a fair evaluation of the evidence it is a positive development,” said Peter Ginsberg, Vilma’s attorney. “Commissioner Goodell’s belated recognition that he cannot possibly serve as an impartial and unbiased arbitrator is certainly a positive development. And we have

enormous respect for Paul Tagliabue. “Having said that, we now need to learn whether Commissioner Tagliabue plans to provide to us the fundamental rights that Commissioner Goodell ignored, including the right to examine the accusers and to see the evidence, and also we need to consider that Commissioner Tagliabue is counsel to the law firm representing Commissioner Goodell in Jonathan’s defamation lawsuit, as well as representing the NFL in Jonathan’s challenge to the entire process in this matter.” Vilma was suspended for the 2012 season and Smith was banned four games for his role in the bounties program. Fujita, now with the Browns, was barred three games, since reduced to one. Hargrove is a free agent whose suspension was reduced from eight games to seven. “I have held two hearings to date and have modified the discipline in several respects based on my recent meetings with the players,”

You’re just hopeful he can come back from it.” Pinkston’s absence means Ryan Miller and Oniel Cousins will be backups on Sunday. Greco filled in for Pinkston last week when the Browns beat the Bengals. “We’re concerned about (Pinkston) and wish him the best,” Thomas said. “John didn’t get a lot of reps in practice last week because obviously we didn’t know Pink wasn’t going to be able to play

The collective bargaining agreement with the union that was reached to end the lockout in August 2011 gave Goodell exclusive authority to hear appeals of discipline for conduct detrimental or to appoint someone to hear and decide an appeal. Goodell periodically has appointed others to hear appeals for club fines, personal conduct suspensions and for matters concerning drug and steroid policy. “To be clear, I have not consulted with Paul Tagliabue at any point about the Saints’ matter, nor has he been any part of the process,” Goodell said. “Furthermore, under our process the hearing officer has full authority and complete independence to decide the appeal and determine any procedural issues regarding the hearings.” Goodell handed down the suspension in May and they took effect in July after initial appeals were rejected by Goodell. Those suspensions

The suspensions were reissued by the NFL last week and promptly appealed by all four players. None of the suspensions is currently in effect because they were appealed within the framework of the NFL’s labor agreement. But all four players have asked U.S. District Judge Ginger Berrigan to throw out Goodell’s disciplinary rulings on the grounds he has demonstrated bias against the players in his handling the bounty investigation. The players say Goodell violated due process rights. In a recent court filing, the union said: “It is only a neutral (arbitrator) of unquestioned integrity who can restore public confidence in this process and mitigate the damage which the NFL’s handling of ‘bounty-gate’ has inflicted upon the game.”

Rockets come back to stun Rangers By JON DELOZIER

sports@MorningJournal.com @MJournalsports

NORTH RIDGEVILLE — Consistent rain for most of the game was a detriment to both offenses, but the Bay Rockets in the end were able to pull off a 13-12 comeback victory over the North Ridgeville Ranger Friday night. “In a game like this the WSC playcalling is bay 13 no mystery,” Bay coach n. ridgeville 12 Ryan Gorius said. “Everyone is thinking run because of the conditions and that puts everything in the hands of the players and the 1-on-1 matchups. “But you just have to keep plugging away and that’s what we did tonight.” The Rangers were the ones to march out to an early 12-0 lead. Bay quarterback Jake Best fumbled the ball two consecutive plays on his first offensive series. The second of which was recovered by the Rangers. The punishing North Ridgeville duo of C.J. Osbourne and Paul Sonego were ready to take it from there with consistent gains up the

With Sonego pushing the ball across the plane to give his team the early lead. After a diving interception by Bailey Gannon, Rangers quarterback Jason Lucas was ready to take advantage. He reeled off consecutive runs of 23 and 32 yards. The 32-yard run going for a touchdown. The junior was a threat on the ground the entire game, also having runs of 20,

16 and 13 yards. “Our seniors know how to play through adversity and we were lucky to have them tonight,” Gorius said. “This game was huge for them. They needed this win. It was their leadership and experience that allowed us to eliminate the turnovers in the second half and play smart.” Bay did play smart, but it was a bit of luck that led to their first score

middies From Page C1 Panthers, they couldn’t do anything with the ball and once again went three-and-out. After the punt, Midview had excellent field position, starting at the Panther 30. With the rainy weather, the Middie passing game was ineffective, forcing them to keep the ball on the ground. Midview started giving the ball to senior running back Edd Johnson who, along with Callaway, ran the ball effectively. Johnson had three carries for 12 yards on the drive, while Callaway ran three times himself for 17 yards. The drive was capped off by a four-yard TD run by Callaway in the first minute of the second quarter. Unfortunately for Midview, it was Callaway’s last play of the game. Callaway was replaced by fellow junior Tyler Stephenson, who filled in admirably. Stephenson finished the game completing 8 of his 14 passes for 104 yards with a touchdown and an interception. “Tyler Stephenson could be a quarterback for a lot of football teams,” Albright said. “He did a great job. My hat’s off to him; to me, he’s the player of the game.” The Panthers finally began moving the ball a couple drives later, in part thanks to a pass interference penalty on Midview that gave Elyria Catholic its first first down of the game.

Middie 6-yard line. Quarterback Conner Riddell threw a shovel pass just before he was hit by a Midview defender. Instead of calling it an incomplete pass, though, the referees called it a fumble and gave the ball to Midview, ending the scoring threat by the Panthers. “I don’t like to make excuses, but it was a designed shovel pass,” EC coach Mike Polevacik said. “It’s in our playbook. It was a shovel pass. I would have felt much better if it was at least 14-3 at the half.” Instead, the teams went into the half with a score of 14-0. The blown call looked to be even bigger at the start of the half, as the Panthers finally broke through when Riddell connected with Joshua Pierce on the first play for a 71-yard TD pass. Instead of tying the game, or cutting the lead to 14-10, the score only cut the lead to 14-7. “Some points at the end of the half would have been crucial, because we came out and scored right away after the half,” Polevacik said. “You can play the game very differently, at that point, if you’re only down by one score.” That’s as close as the Panthers would get though, as Midview’s defense kept EC in check most of the night. Stephenson connected with Jack Duffner for a 53-yard TD, and then Bartone ran in a 1-yard touchdown to put the game away. Bartone finished the game with 77 yards on 12 carries and two touchdowns, while Johnson had 59 yards on 11 carries.

just before halftime. On 3rd-andlong at the Ridgeville 19-yard line, Jake Best attempted a fake on the extra point, but was being smothered by the Ranger pass rush. Just as he was about to be sacked, he pitched the ball backwards to senior running back Ryan Voiers, who took the ball to the outside untouched for the first down. The Rangers hurt themselves

with penalties the entire game, totaling seven for 60 yards. The one that stung the most though was a 15-yard facemask that gave the Rockets a 1st-and-goal at the 9 in the fourth quarter. Two plays later Best connected with 6-foot-6 Scott Rapps in the back of the end zone for the go ahead score. It was a play in which Rapps had been wide open earlier in the game, but the pass protection had not given Best the time to throw the pass until it counted the most. “It was a spectacular catch by Scott,” Gorius said. “He knows how to take advantage of his side because of his basketball experience. We have numerous basketball players on this team and we like to use their talents as much as possible.” The penalties negated a very good effort by the North Ridgeville defense. They held Bay to 117 yards nine first downs, and forced three turnover on downs. They continually found a way to shoot themselves in the foot, whether it was a fumble, three interceptions thrown or the multitude of penalties. “We made our own mistakes, but thankfully we were able to overcome that and not blink later in the game,” Corius said. “As I said, it’s a great win to get for our seniors even if it wasn’t the prettiest. I’m just glad that we got the good grass side of the field in the fourth quarter.”

Avon’s Douglas puts on a show with five TDs By COURTNEY SHILLING sports@MorningJournal.com @MJournalsports

ROCKY RIVER — Avon senior running back Ross Douglas rushed for five touchdowns and 214 yards to lead the Eagles to a 42-21 victory over Rocky River on Friday night. Two of Douglas’ scores were on breakaway rushes over 50 yards each. The win lifts the Eagles to 8-1 on the season, keeps them undefeated in the West Shore Conference at 6-0 and well on their way to becoming WSC WSC champions for the avon 42 third straight year. rocky river 21 The pouring rain and tough defense by Rocky River appeared to dampen Avon’s opening drive, forcing the Eagles to punt. Unfortunately for Rocky River, a roughing the kicker penalty proved costly, enabling Avon to continue to push into Pirate territory. Douglas found the end zone on a 5-yard touchdown to put Avon on the board first with 6:36 left in the first quarter. After back-to-back three and out possessions by both teams, Rocky River’s Michael Dickey created a spark for the Pirates on a 27-yard run. Subsequent rushes from Bob Osborn and Dickey set up a fourth-and-two for Rocky River. Dickey pushed his way through the Avon defensive line to break all the way to the end zone for a 21-yard touchdown, tying the score at 7 early in the second quarter. Avon answered quickly, with a swift 26-yard bootleg by senior quarterback David Zeh and a few rushes from Douglas setting up his

4-yard touchdown just two minutes later. Douglas’ second score of the night regained Avon’s lead, 14-7. On their next possession, Rocky River tried to utilize Dickey’s momentum but were forced to punt on a fourth-and-5. Luckily for the Pirates, a fumbled fair catch by Avon’s Ralph Smith was recovered by Tom McNamara to set them up on Avon’s 19-yard line. On thirdand-8, Pirates senior quarterback Keelan Boettcher found fellow senior tight end Bob Osborn on a 17-yard touchdown strike to tie the game again. That tie didn’t last long, with Douglas pulling in his third touchdown of the opening half on a 58-yard dash to the end zone. Avon ended the half with a 21-14 lead after Rocky River struggled to gain much ground. Both teams’ offenses were challenged in the third quarter, until Rocky River’s Enli Hamzai and Martin Finnegan gained momentum for the Pirates. They helped set up Boettcher to dive over the pile for a 2-yard touchdown, tying the score at 21 early in the fourth. Douglas had another quick answer, tearing a huge 64-yard gain and his fourth touchdown of the night to put the Eagles back on top, 28-21. Once Rocky River failed to convert, Douglas found the end zone for his fifth touchdown, and Logan Juhl picked off Boettcher, it became clear Avon was finally in control of the game. Avon’s final touchdown rush of the game came from Mark Kvach on a 2-yard run to close out the game at 42-21. Even though Douglas was definitely a star in the game, he attributed the victory to the whole team. “This was a big win, a great team effort,” Douglas said.

Solutions for a sustainable future Food Prices

Food Prices: It seems like certain food prices are increasing over night. I purchase the same foods each week and it feels like I am paying substantially more. Is there any truth in this? Food prices can be very complex. MR. COMFORT The connection between fuel costs and food costs in the United JIM STEIGNER States has changed over recent years. In the past when fuel costs went up, agricultural production costs went up, the cost of fertilizer went up and transportation costs went up, your grocery bill went up. In recent years the food market has become connected to the fuel market, because of the mandates for corn-based ethanol. As fuel prices rise, more farmers put their crop into ethanol production instead of food production to increase profits. As corn is a major component of many products and as corn prices are driven up by portions being used for ethanol (E85), the result is an increase in food prices. Factoid: Corn is the one crop that most greatly affects commodity and food prices.. It is most food products in the form of fructose or other ingredients, as well as the principal ingredient used for animal food production as feed. The ethanol mandate also artificially inflates prices. Inflation on food products was very low for many years (2 to 3 % increases per year). Overall inflation is about 2 to 4 percent. Last year, for example, the consumer price index recorded food increases at 3.6 percent. Factoid: Corn is not a good ingredient in Dog Food. Corn doesn’t really digest properly and is primarily filler material. It is also subject to aflatoxin fungus. The Diamond pet food recalls and others were related to this. People in developing countries are those most affected by food price increases, where as in the United States, although painful has much less of an impact. In a poor country, a staple like rice can make up as much as 70% of the family’s budget. For a majority of Americans, food represents only about 10 percent of a family’s budget. Factoid: The majority of cost fluctuations that we see in the grocery store happen after the food leaves the farm, such as manufacturing, transportation, etc. Therefore, even if world commodity prices double, they have a much smaller effect on the U.S. consumer. Frustration by prices in the grocery store may be partly because of insecurity about the economy, the continued high unemployment rate and peoples incomes not being what they wish relative to

NORTH RIDGEVILLE

In many areas, including our own City of Oberlin, there is a large push to grow local. Oberlin would like to have, through its Oberlin Project, working in conjunction with the Western Reserve land Conservancy (Currently developing a plan to preserve 20,000 acres of farmland in Lorain and surrounding counties), localize 70% of its food supply. Not only will this provide local jobs and healthier food, it will have a significant downward impact on food pricing as shipping, handling, and other costs will be reduced or eliminated. I am Jim Steigner (Mr. Comfort), and I just wanted you to know. As always feel free to contact me with any questions, thoughts or ideas at www.mrcomforthvac.com, under the “Ask Mr. Comfort” Section, or at www.facebook.com/ mrcomforthvac. Thanks to Cathy M of Lorain for her question. Real or perceived it sure seems like prices are increasing and product sizes or portions are decreasing. Happy Shopping Everyone.

single unit, with major limbs supporting each other. Water, fertilize and protect the soil from compaction to keep trees and roots healthy and vigorous. After a Storm

The confusion following a major storm can result in removal of trees that could be saved or the improper weakening of a tree that can reduce its healthy life. Home owners can lose money as well as the beauty and practical benefits of their shade trees with poor advice and the services of fly-by-night tree “experts.” Tree work can be extremely dangerous. A professional tree care company should be used when: • a tree is large and requires high climbing or the use of a chain saw; • a tree is leaning on a structure or entangled with another tree; • wires are involved or structures are endangered;

• major repair of the tree is necessary; • a large limb is split or broken but still attached to the tree; • when you do not have the proper tools, knowledge or health to do tree work. It is wise to get more than one estimate. When removals are necessary, have a clear understanding about who removes the limbs and debris from the property, and whether or not the price includes stump removal and clean-up. Your tree will have value as firewood or chips that should be considered in the estimate.

Before putting away mower for winter, get it in shape for spring Before storing your lawnmower for the season, try some of our favorite tuneup tips. It will not take much time or money to do, and your mower will be ready to go when you break it out next spring. Run it until the gas is all gone. You can do this on your last mowing weekend! Clean it up. Wipe and scrape off all of the grass and other debris that collects on top of and underneath the mower. Remove the spark plug(s) before going under the mower deck! Scrape off any loose or peeling paint, and apply zinc primer and Rust-oleum exterior enamel to bare metal surfaces. Use spray paint for the fastest results. Use WD-40 on all moving parts, joints and bolts. This will keep them moving and rust-free. Remove the air filter and clean it. Foam filters can be cleaned with soapy water and set in the sun to dry. Paper filters can be cleaned with a paintbrush. Both should be replaced if damaged or badly worn. Remove the old cutting blade. If you are going to

have it sharpened, cover the new edge with plenty of grease so it won’t rust during the winter. A new blade is a wonderful thing, and is healthy for your grass. Drain oil by pumping it out or through the drain plug, which newer mowers have. Refill the mower with fresh, clean oil, as specified in your owner’s manual. If you don’t have a manual, you probably can get one for free at the manufacturer’s website. Replace the old spark plug with a new one. You should do this every year. Your mower will burn fuel cleaner and will run smoother. Order any replacement parts you need during the winter so you can install them in the off-season. Start with fresh gas in the spring, too!

Q: I have metal outdoor landscape lamps. They still work fine, but the original finish is peeling off to the bare metal. Is there a particular type of paint I should use to repaint them? – B.R. A: Sand off all of the damaged paint, and use a metal primer and paint made for exterior metal surfaces. This is a very easy project, so do them all, whether they need it or not, so they will match. It’s also a great way to change the look of your existing landscape lights. Turn those plain, old, black lamps to copper or bronze, and give your yard a quick, inexpensive facelift. CUSTOMIZE YOUR OLD ENTERTAINMENT CENTER FOR YOUR NEW TV: The new, thinner televisions are really great, and they fit into most rooms so much better than the older, boxy models that we grew up with. But if you have an older entertainment center and you don’t want to get rid of it, why not just make it thinner? Depending upon the type of entertainment center you have, it might be possible to cut it in half and make

it fit into your room better. Use a saw to cut off the back half of the cabinet, including the shelves and cabinets. If done smoothly, you’ll have a thinner entertainment center that’s just perfect for your new, thinner TV. Dear Carrells: My wife asked me to clean the cooktop in our kitchen. It’s a gas range and had a lot of built-up grease and grime on it. It needed some extra detailing, so I took a stab at it. While cleaning, I found that the center hub, where the gas outlets are, was clogged. I used a wire paperclip, unfolded, to remove the debris from all of the ports. Then I used a toothbrush to clean the outside of it. She tells me that the range is like a new one and that the gas and flame are so much better now. It really does look great, and I’m glad to have done it before the holidays. (My wife is a super cook!) – G.T. A SUPER HINT – Customize switchplates and electrical outlets with matching wall paint, and make them disappear. Primer will help the paint stick to the plastic. Just remove them, prime and paint, then replace. Dear Al: I’m spending a lot more time in the garden these days. I really enjoy it, and have had a couple of very successful vegetable gardens in the past couple of years. I made a nice waterproof apron from an extra nail pouch that I had in the shop. I just sprayed it with Scotchgard, and now it’s waterproof and perfect for gardening. – N.V. Q: I am smelling a strong smoky smell coming from our fireplace. We’ve never had any problem with it and use it a couple of times every winter. What should we check to make sure there’s not a problem? – K.J. A: You really ought to have your chimney swept. A good chimney sweep will clean and inspect your

This is so easy to do, and once you know the basics, you can have a steady supply of FREE plant food and mulch for your yard year-round. It doesn’t cost much, and is a great way to get rid of vegetable waste from your home as well as many other items destined for the garbage can. Learn how to build and manage your own compost pile with our instructions.

If you want to try to do the job yourself, check for flue-cleaning supplies at your fireplace store. Make sure to check your pipe and mortar joints, and use fireproof materials for any repairs. A Tip From the Super HandyMom – If you have old doorknobs, turn them into a hat and/or coat rack. Use original hardware or dowels attached to wood scraps to mount the doorknobs in your entryway or mud room, and fill them up with your coldweather items. Small knobs can hold keys. SHOPTALK – A rotary hammer makes big projects a whole lot easier, but the latest model (RH850VC 1-7/8-inch SDS-max) from Bosch is a step above the rest. It brings vibration control with three different level settings. This means you can work longer than before and get the job done quicker. It also offers tool-free bit changes, automatic bit lock and built-in dust protection. The VarioLock mechanism rotates and locks into 12 different positions for more precise chiseling. It also has a variable-speed dial for drilling, and is built to last. You can find out more about the whole Bosch line at www. boschtools.com or by call-

ing 877-BOSCH-99. WAINSCOTING MADE SO EASY IT’S SCARY!: Molding in a home is like the icing on a cake. But it can be costly and a bit intimidating if you have never done it before. One way to get a super-looking wainscoting in your home is so simple, it’s scary. Just buy several inexpensive wood frames, painted the same color as the wall or just white, and attach them to the bottom half of the wall all the way around a room. If you space them out and position them properly, it’s going to look super, and you don’t have to ever tell anyone how easy it was to do! Dear Carrells: I like simple, ready-to-assemble shelves. They are easy to put together, and most are fairly inexpensive. The only complaint I have is that most won’t hold a lot of books without the shelves starting to bow. I add a small, 1-inch-by-1-inch scrap of wood to the back, just under each shelf, to add some extra support. If the back is made of cardboard, as some are, you still can attach the wood to the back, but you also should secure it to the sides of the unit. It’s amazing how a little scrap of wood can make such a difference. – D.M.

I know how much duties. However, I am deeply concerned, this means to them. Many nursing home patients sit all and have been for a long time, about the abandonment of our residents by their day looking out the windows or trying to find something to do to pass the own families. Many families do not visit at all and time. I also know when family memsome come only infrequently. There is bers start letting visits slip by, it is hard just no way for our staff to make up for to break the habit. Out of sight and out this hole in the patients’ lives.

The limits of modern life also impose we should do more than just think reupon all children and grandchildren spectfully of the aged; we should do with loved ones in nursing homes a spe- something that shows respect.

BLONDIE by Dean Young & Sean Drake

BABY BLUES by Rick Kirkman & Jerry Scott

THE PAJAMA DIARIES by Terri Libenson

TUNDRA by Chad Carpenter

by Jacqueline Bigar ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be overserious and unpredictable. You might even stir the pot with a boss or someone in charge. Try to avoid a power play, at all costs. A take-charge attitude seems reasonable and could be most effective. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Keep reaching out for more information, especially if you are not satisfied with what is coming up for you. You could be surprised by what comes in from out of left field. You might realize that you have had this information all along, but it takes an event like this to recall the memory. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Deal with one other person directly, and you could be surprised by how you get exactly what you most want. Surprises tend to follow your path wherever you go. Friends seem to be an endless source of the unexpected. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Defer to others, and know full well what will happen. You could feel blocked in some sense. A key associate really does not want any input from you. Someone you look up to might be cantankerous and unpredictable. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Clear out errands in order to free up your day. Afterward, play it low-key or get together with friends. At last, you will have the opportunity to choose what you want. The unexpected occurs when making plans to travel in the near future. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You come up with one idea after another today, which creates a problem, as you simply cannot squeeze everything in. A heavy discussion or an intense interaction is unavoidable. No matter what, you cannot turn the other way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Stay anchored and direct. You might not have all the answers, but you do need to find them. There is a financial decision looming over you that has several potential outcomes. Do not question your self-discipline. You know how to tell someone that you have had enough. This person could become very stubborn as a result.

DILBERT by Scott Adams

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You will go out of your way to make an impression on a person or situation. You actually are more appealing than you might realize; you do not need to try so hard. Just be yourself, and allow an important discussion to take place. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be sensitive to your own issues, as well as to a partner’s. You can become quite insecure at times. How this behavior manifests could differ from person to person. Try not to get involved in a financial deal or agreement. Stay away from spending in general right now. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The Moon highlights you and what you want. You could have a strong reaction to a child or loved one who demands a lot at this moment. You probably will go along with this person’s request. A situation takes an interesting twist. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be as discreet as possible when dealing with a relative or neighbor. You’ll need to stay mum about what you know, whether it is the information this person wants or what he or she reveals. Rethink a judgment. Much that you hear or see tells you that you might need to readjust your thinking. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Zero in on what you want, and others will seem delighted to play along. You could be taken aback by a friend’s unusually good mood. Enjoy the moment. This person could flip at any given moment, as he or she typically is difficult to deal with. IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY This year much of your focus is on the quality of your life. You might be overserious at times, especially in the first few months of this birthday year. Learn to let go more often. Some of you might decide to make some major changes to your home or personal life. If you are single, you will meet someone when you least expect it. If you are attached, as a couple you make it a priority to work on building security. You also might look to invest in a home or just make necessary renovations. CAPRICORN can be a stick in the mud.

Obtaining food still issue in New Orleans NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Dwayne Boudreaux’s memories of the Circle Food Store in New Orleans 7th Ward neighborhood are so vivid he can walk through its colonnade of arches into the dark and empty shell and give a guided tour of how it was before Hurricane Katrina. He points to where the registers once rang, patrons cashed paychecks, children lined up to buy school uniforms and neighborhood cooks shopped for dressed wild game, live turtles for soups and abundant fresh produce. “Everybody knew us for the fresh fruits and vegetables,” Boudreaux said. “We were the bell pepper capital of the city.” Seven years after Katrina flood waters inundated most of New Orleans, the store’s barren insides are emblematic of a problem that neighborhood activists say was exacerbated by the catastrophe: In a city known for its food, fresh produce and affordable groceries are hard to come by in some neighborhoods. In the hard-hit Lower 9th Ward, activists planned to call attention Saturday to the “food desert” with a festival including live music, cooking demonstrations and a “pop up” outdoor grocery in a church parking lot. “It will be an actual grocery

Mwendo said about 30 percent of residents in the Lower 9th Ward lack personal transportation, making a trip to the nearest full-service grocery outlet — a Walmart in the neighboring city of Chalmette — problematic. Lower 9th resident Gertrude LeBlanc, 76, has her own car. And she needs it to get quality food. There are

convenience stores closer to home, but the prices are high. “For a person on a fixed income, with no food stamps, it’s hard,” Leblanc said. The problem with access to food in the neighborhood stretches back before the storm: Mwendo said there hasn’t been a full-service grocery there in 20 years. And price is not the only problem she sees with convenience stores. “It’s poor-quality food,” she said.

With God, nothing is against you “Do all to the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 Are you up against a situation that is discouraging? Have you been suffering because of the choices of others? Or have you made a mistake, and now you wonder if there is any hope for the future? But, today, don’t look at the obstacles in your life. Rather, look to God. He is there for you; and if God is for you, nothing can stand against you. “He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength.” (Isaiah 40:29). Just as God gave Samson the power to make the walls of a Philistine temple crumble to the ground (Judges 16:30), He has given you incredible inner strength and phenomenal gifts. So be strong and courageous. You have love, conviction, determination, wisdom, resilience, and fortitude within your heart: And those attributes will allow you to prevail over challenges, and they will carry you far in this life. Samson’s story in the Bible provides powerful lessons. At his birth, which was miraculous because his mother had previously been unable to conceive, Samson’s parents were told by God’s messenger that their son was to deliver Israel from the Philistines, who were oppressively occupying the land. Samson was set apart for God’s service and made a vow that he would never cut his hair, as a sign of obedience (Judges 13:5). God gave Samson superhuman physical strength. However, rather than serving God as he had promised, Samson embarked on a life of lust, sin, and indulgence in worldly pleasures. Samson lacked self-control and was full of conceit. Later, he fell in love with a woman named Delilah (16:4). The Philistines offered her money if she could tell them the secret of Samson’s formidable strength. Delilah tricked Samson into revealing his se-

Catherine Galasso-Vigorito cret, confiding in her that his strength was in his hair. So, while Samson was asleep, Delilah had her servant cut off his hair, and thereafter his vigor was gone. The Philistines then captured Samson, blinded him, and put him in jail. Samson had little hope. But, day by day, he contemplated his mistakes, realizing that every compromise brought consequences. Samson repented, prayed, and yielded his life to God. A celebration took place by the Philistines, so they took blind Samson out of jail to ridicule him in front of the large crowds in the pagan temple of the Philistines. Each of Samson’s hands was touching a pillar, and he prayed for God to strengthen him just one more time. With all of his God-given power, Samson pushed the pillars apart. He collapsed the temple. Thousands of the Philistines perished, disrupting their nation, so that Israel was able to come out from under its control. Although Samson made mistakes, he humbled himself under the hand of God and submitted to His will. Samson was then able to use his potential for good and achieved victory. Whatever you are facing at the moment, God has not abandoned nor has He given up on you. Remember, your past is no hindrance to God’s saving grace, for “The Lord is near to all who call upon Him” (Psalm 145:18). God is merciful, and He can make up for the days, the months or even the years that you may have lost. So, pray, stay faithful, and link your efforts with God’s power. And try:

• Changing self-defeating habits through shifting your focus from yourself onto others. • Breaking away from unconstructive influences. Those that you surround yourself with can dramatically influence your thinking and your actions. • Coming to terms with what happened yesterday and ceasing to dwell on it. And this same God, who “shaped the earth from nothing, formed the mountains,” and “created the wind,” can help you to take a seemingly hopeless situation and transform it into success. Several months ago, our family adopted a puppy but, we had little background information on the sweet animal. We drove home along with the little white puppy sitting contentedly on my lap and our three excited daughters were in the back seat of the car. Their smiles were broadening, so happy to have a new pet. Since we had not yet taken the puppy to the veterinarian for a checkup, and being concerned that the puppy could be unhealthy, I questioned my husband, “What if she didn’t come from a good environment or the right circumstances?” I closed my eyes briefly and took a deep breath. As he turned the car onto our street, my husband said, “It doesn’t matter where she came from…what matters is what we do now.” Today is a new day and with it comes a clean slate. Therefore, delight in the newness of the pristine morning. Wake up, and say, “Thank you, Lord. A new chapter begins today, and it is only the start of bringing you glory and expecting wonderful things for my future.” Look ahead with hope. God wants to do something extraordinary in your life. You will get through these times, as a whole new, splendid life lies before you.
