$10 million gift to Cincinnati Ballet is its largest ever Sharon Coolidge Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Margaret Valentine fondly remembers going to the Cleveland Ballet when she was a child, sparking a lifelong love of the ballet.

A longtime Cincinnati resident, Valentine wants to make sure the Cincinnati Ballet is around for generations to come. So as the ballet announces its move to Walnut Hills to a new, larger building designed to meet the growing Cincinnati Ballet’s needs, Valentine and her husband, Michael Valentine, gave the dance company $10 million – the ballet’s largest gift ever.

“It was evident the Cincinnati Ballet was growing and that their location was not going to be able to sustain the ballet in the manner in which it needed to be sustained,” Margaret Valentine said. “(This project) would be one that would benefi t the entire Cincinnati community.”

The move is going to cost $30 million, according to the ballet. A fundraising drive began a little more than a year ago.

Valentine’s $10 million donation, combined with a gift from Rhonda and Larry A. Sheakley, are the fi nal pieces to make the move possible.

The ballet center will be named the Cincinnati Ballet Margaret and Michael Valentine Center for Dance. And the premier, or largest, studio will be named after the Sheakleys.

“Peg (Margaret) and Michael have been dear friends for many years,” said Victoria Morgan, the ballet’s artistic director. “Several years ago, I had the great pleasure of working closely with Peg when they led sponsorship of our premiere production of ‘King Arthur’s Camelot’ during our 2013-2014 season. I learned fi rsthand how truly committed Peg is to guiding an idea into reality. I am honored and thrilled that our new home will be called the Cincinnati Ballet Margaret and Michael Valentine Center for Dance.”

The Mickey Jarson Kaplan Performance Studio on Central Parkway in the West End sits across from Music Hall and borders what will be the new FC Cincinnati stadium. Margaret Valentine and her husband Michael Valentine have donated $10 million to the Cincinnati Ballet, the ballet’s largest gift ever.

The Cincinnati Ballet is a mid-size ballet compared to others across the country, with a $10.4 million operating budget last season. But as some ballet companies struggle – Cleveland’s closed and re-opened as a smaller company four years ago – the Cincinnati Ballet is scheduled to hold nearly 60 performances this season, drawing around 70,000 people. That’s up from 58,000 during the 2015-2016 season.

And student enrollment at the ballet’s Otto M. Budig Academy has grown 21 percent since the 2017-2018 school year and is on pace to get even bigger during this year.

1 fi refi ghter injured in Oct. 27 Madeira fi re Amber Jayanth Fox19

A fi refi ghter is suff ering from injuries after a fi re occurred at a Madeira business and apartment complex early Sunday, Oct. 27.

The Chief of the Madeira/Indian Hill Fire Department, Steve Oughterson, says the fi re broke out around 2:30 a.m. on Laurel Avenue at behind the Madeira Choice Meats building/apartment complex. When crews arrived, they found heavy smoke in the rear of the building, said Fire Chief Oughterson.

One fi refi ghter from the Little Miami Joint Fire and Rescue suff ered minor injuries as a result of the fi re. Oughterson says the fi re was so intense that he had to pull crews out of the building for a while.

Meats resides in has been in the community since the 1920s. They share the building with the Curious Garden Flower shop.

“He’s been in business 40 years,” said Oughterson. “It’s a blow to the local community. Several people have walked by expressing their condolences saying I shop here. The owner has expressed he doesn’t know what to do. Hopefully, the community will rally for him and his family.”

The Curious Garden Flower shop also has extensive damage.

Oughterson says the injured fi refi ghter was taken to Jewish Hospital.

The cause of the fi re is under investigation.

Two more Ohio medical marijuana businesses scrutinized over ownership

In other words, it was time to move out of the ballet’s existing 36,000 square-foot building in the West End, adjacent to the future FC Cincinnati stadium.

The new location is 57,000 square feet.

“This monumental gift will change the face of Cincinnati Ballet for generations to come,” said Scott Altman, the ballet’s president and CEO. “The Cincinnati Ballet Margaret and Michael Valentine Center for Dance will exponentially advance our mission to enrich, expand and excel in the art of dance through performance, a high-caliber academy, and impactful education and community engagement.”

Margaret and Michael Valentine both attended the University of Cincinnati, marrying after graduating.

Michael Valentine and a partner designed the fi rst radar detector to use superheterodyne technology in 1976. Today, the Valentines run Blue Ash-based Valentine Research, a privately held company that designs, manufactures and markets consumer electronics.

Margaret Valentine is a UC trustee and, in 2016, she and her husband donated $6.5 million to the university’s Fifth Third Arena renovation. The couple has also made donations to various departments, including the engineering department, where Michael Valentine got his start. Margaret Valentine provided the fi rst fully endowed scholarship for a woman in sports in 2014, which was for tennis.

In her personal life, ballet is a passion for Margaret Valentine.

For years, Margaret Valentine was a season subscriber to the ballet. When the company fell on tough times in 2008, leaving the question of whether there would continue to be live music for performances, she stepped in to help.

“Without live music, the ballet would

seem less rich,” Margaret Valentine said. “Recorded music would not have been the same.”

Margaret Valentine’s friendship with Morgan fl ourished and she wanted to help make Morgan’s vision for ballet a reality.

Margaret Valentine, with $500,000, was the lead donor for “King Arthur’s Camelot,” which premiered in February 2014. Then she was a signifi cant donor in helping put on the celebration of Cincinnati Ballet Music Director Carmen DeLeone’s 50th anniversary with the ballet. Since then, she’s supported the ballet’s touring eff orts, and when Morgan redesigned “The Nutcracker” for the 2011/ 2012 season, Margaret Valentine sponsored the children’s costumes.

When the idea of a new headquarters for the ballet began being discussed, Valentine knew she wanted to help.

“I always enjoyed going to the ballet,” Margaret Valentine said. “But at the beginning, I didn’t see that I would be this involved. Part of it was meeting Victoria. She is so inspiring ... and she’s such an asset to Cincinnati, and under her leadership, the ballet has really prospered.”

Ohio’s strict rules for transferring ownership of a medical marijuana business have caused problems for two more companies.

A dispensary owner can’t sell or transfer the business until it has been open for one year. Signifi cant changes or transfers require approval from the Ohio State Board of Pharmacy.

The pharmacy board fi ned Verdant Creations, which owns fi ve dispensaries, $20,000 last month as part of a settlement in an ownership dispute.

The board claimed Verdant’s contract for services with Cresco Labs, an Illinois-based multi-state operator, constituted a change in control over dayto-day operations.

The board is also taking disciplinary action against AFS Cultivation LLC, which has a provisional license for a dispensary in Elyria. The board claims AFS Cultivation transferred control of the license to multi-state operator Sea Hunter Therapeutics.

The Enquirer learned of the ownership disputes with the two businesses through a public records request. The arrangement with Sea Hunter was among several possible ownership transfer violations uncovered in a recent Enquirer investigation.

Ownership disputes have become the latest wrinkle in a program that has struggled to get off the ground over the past two years.

In July, the Enquirer reported the board was taking action against Greenleaf Apothecaries LLC and Harvest of Ohio LLC. The board claimed the businesses were not owned an operated by the individuals listed on their dispensary license applications.

Earlier this month, the board fi ned Greenleaf Apothecaries $300,000 over its relationship with New Yorkbased Acreage Holdings for operations at its fi ve Ohio dispensaries. Greenleaf had already opened two dispensaries before the board took action against the company.

Verdant Verdant had an agreement with Cresco Labs to “provide management and consulting services” for four of its fi ve dispensaries, according settlement records.

Cresco, which also has cultivation and dispensary licenses in Ohio, extended a line of credit to Verdant and agreed to purchase the licenses at a future date. The settlement agreement did not detail the terms of the credit or purchase agreement.

Some Verdant employees thought they reported to Cresco employees, the board found. And Cresco paid some vendor and contractor invoices on Verdant’s behalf.

The agreements were for Verdant’s dispensaries in Cincinnati, Chillicothe, Newark and Marion. A fi fth dispensary in Columbus was not included in the settlement agreements. The settlement bars Verdant from employing anyone affi liated with Cresco.

On Oct. 8, Verdant Creations received pharmacy board approval to open the fi ve dispensaries – more than six months after it planned to open the fi rst. Verdant opened its Newark dispensary Oct. 22.

In a statement Tuesday, Corey Poches, Verdant managing partner, said the company sought guidance from Cresco with certain functions such as accounting and payroll.

“Cresco Labs is one of the most trusted and reputable brands in the cannabis space and now we have further clarity to what degree they can advise us in the future,” Poches said. “We look forward to working with the Board of Pharmacy and to continuing to provide the best products and service to the medical cannabis patients of Ohio.”

AFS Cultivation Application documents list William Brothers as the 100% owner. But investor documents fi led in Canada show multi-state operator Sea Hunter Therapeutics LLC advanced $2.65 million to AFS Cultivation and had an agreement to acquire all ownership of the company.

Internal company documents reviewed by pharmacy offi cials show Brothers handed over control of the business to executives of Sea Hunter and its parent company Tilt Holdings Inc. Under the operating agreement, Sea Hunter founders Robert Leidy and Alexander Coleman were given sole authority to make business decisions for AFS Cultivation. Brothers gave the pair the right to vote on business policy on his behalf. The board found Sea Hunter paid construction invoices for the dispensary. Sea Hunter had the option to acquire all fi nancial interest in the company for $10.

The board concluded “The operating agreement demonstrates that William Brothers, as 100% owner of AFS Cultivation LLC, no longer owns and/controls AFS Cultivation LLC as represented in [its application.”

Brothers, who owns an Arizona medical marijuana facility, did not return a call seeking comment. The business has requested a hearing before the board.

You told Polly to eat at this Oakley barbecue spot. She’s not impressed Polly Campbell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

For years, I’ve been driving past The Establishment on Wasson in Oakley and wondering if I should go in. But it can be hard to get past a facade with no windows. Plus, I don’t think I‘d ever heard one thing about whether The Establishment was good or bad.

Then someone bought it, punched some holes in the wall and partnered with Smoked Out Cincy to off er barbecue. I put it on a list of places I wanted to try and asked readers to vote on which one to start with. 197 people, or 22.23% of the responders, said I should check it out, so I fi nally made it inside.

This place is basic. It’s like the generic store brand, like a car ordered with no options.

The square, unadorned building has been freshly painted black on the outside, the fl oors inside are dark wood, the inside walls dark grey. I know that’s a current trend, so feel free to dismiss me as out of touch, because I think it’s a terrible, sad trend. The only decoration is TVs tuned to sports talk shows.

There’s a bar and a barbecue-ordering window in the front room, tables in a larger back room and a patio. A group of women in the middle of the back room was not obnoxious in themselves, but their voices and laughter were amplifi ed by the live room. They almost drowned out the soundtrack of guitary ‘80s radio rock. There are no servers. You order food at the window and drinks at the bar.

Pretty lacking in atmosphere or personality. Its distinction is that Smoked Out Cincy is there to off er barbecue, one of the three top things that go with beer (along with pizza and burgers).

The best of their off erings is the pulled

The pulled pork sandwich from Smoked Out Cincy at The Establishment in Oakley

pork sandwich, with big hunks of pork, and a lot of it, on an eggy roll. Eat it in plain smoked meatiness, or use a little of the thick sweet barbecue sauce on the side.

The brisket, served on a hoagie bun, wasn’t as good. It was not completely tender and I had to cut out some chunks of fat. The sauteed onions and pickles that garnish it oomphed it up to make a good enough sandwich. Fried cheese curds were as good as most, but let’s face it, cheese curds have zero fl avor. The fried potato salad was rich and creamy, and the coleslaw was kind of soggy.

Basic, basic, basic. Plus, there was a lot of styrofoam and cardboard to throw out after, which always kind of depresses me, like grey walls.

Sorry, especially if you voted for me to try it, but I can’t really recommend it as an experience to go out of your way for. If it’s your neighborhood bar, and you go with friends, or you get a nice spot by the outdoor fi re pit, it’s fi ne. Or if it’s the closest place for a hefty barbecue pork sandwich, it’s there for you.

The countdown to Thanksgiving is here and requests for do-ahead gravy pop up daily. So I’m sharing an updated version this year, with more aromatics for depth of fl avor. It’s a good one!

Making gravy ahead and augmenting it with drippings gives you lots of delicious gravy with no worries about running out.

Viewpoints Exercise your gratitude muscle daily Wayne Box Miller Guest Columnist Community Press USA TODAY NETWORK

I have learned more about gratitude in the past fi ve months than I have in the past decade. I have long been a proponent of gratitude and tout its virtues at every turn. For as much as I thought I knew about gratitude, I couldn’t have imagined how it would be tested as I was preparing to publish my third book "You Wake-up You Win." I found myself being challenged at every turn with missed deadlines, printer issues, miscommunication and the usual life distractions, despite my wellintentioned plans of on-time or neartime delivery.

But an awesome thing happened along the way that confi rmed my mantra/book title and it was that my gratitude muscle was bulging out from under my persona.

It reminded me to remain calm and practice what I had always preached, namely that there is always something to be thankful for.

While I didn’t get the books back on time (they are here now) and felt badly for those who believed in the concept enough to purchase the book in advance, I sought gratitude along the way for every thing big and small. Suddenly, I realized a wealth of gratitude was waiting for me each day and allowed me to embrace whatever additional challenges came my way with respect to delivering the third of my three books goal.

Former Cincinnati Reds player Dave Parker greets fans at Redsfest at the Duke Energy Convention Center in 2017. THE ENQUIRER/MEG VOGEL

I became even more grateful for the patience of so many who agreed to go on this journey with me in advance. Thus the goal of helping you develop a winning attitude in the face of adversity was validated. I even started thinking of gratitude with two Ts combining the words grateful and attitude to equal "grattitude."

Like many of us, I continue to learn,

having heard it said before that gratitude is a muscle, and one you have to exercise daily like any other muscle. The truth is like any other muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it gets.

I post inspiring and uplifting quotes on my personal social media pages, especially the "You Wake-up You Win" page in hopes of helping someone handle a tough moment or day by refl ecting

on how it could always be worse.

The truth is, you’re alive for another day and could be on the verge of a breakthrough! I admit, it’s hard at times. Hard when you lose someone; when someone is suff ering from a debilitating disease; a relationship is falling apart; or your job just handed you the proverbial pink slip.

But even in the midst of all that heartache, great things can still happen with gratitude as your North Star.

The Walk of Angels 5K is a run/walk in memorial of Lauren Dietz, Miranda Phelps and Jessica Phillips. Former Pittsburgh Pirate and Cincinnati Reds great Dave Parker launched the Cobra Classic golf outing to help people dealing with Parkinson’s disease, a condition he courageously battles himself.

And there are any number of programs that help people not only get back into the workforce but provide appropriate clothing to boost their self esteem.

The beauty in all these eff orts, and many others, is that their originators have turned tragedy into triumph through gratitude and a winning attitude in the face of adversity. That is the bedrock of "You Wake-up You Win." In these days of polarizing conversations, political upheaval and the inability to simply disagree and get along, we need to recalibrate our emotions and set our thermostats to grateful. I hope you will join me and practice gratitude every chance you get and let us remind each other, "You Wake-up You Win!"

Summit Country Day captured its fi rst-ever state team championship Saturday, Nov. 2, at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio. SHELBY DERMER/FOR THE ENQUIRER

St. X, Summit win state cross country titles Shelby Dermer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

It was worth the wait for the St. Xavier and Summit Country Day boys cross country teams.

For St. Xavier, the wait was agonizing 17-minute period following the Division I boys race at the 91st annual boys cross country championships at National Trail Raceway in Hebron.

The Bombers paced the National Trail Runway under a light rain, anxiously awaiting the results of a review that would determine if they were the Division I state team championship.

Then, the moment came.

Offi cials deemed the Bombers state champions as they edged out Mason for

the top spot, 92-97.

“We’ve waited since last November, waiting another 15-20 minutes is not a big deal," St. Xavier head coach Andrew Wietmarschen said. "At this level, everybody works hard and is talented, but this is something that they’ve wanted since we left here last year. I’m proud of all those guys that showed up today – it’s truly a team."

St. Xavier fi nished fourth at last year's state championship, 28 points behind Mason for third place. The Bombers won the Troy Regional over the Comets by 40 points, then held on Saturday for the program's sixth career state title and fi rst since 2013.

“I think coming back nobody pegged us as the team to beat," Wietmarschen

said. "I think other folks thought there were some teams better than us, but these guys believed all throughout the winter, all throughout track season and into the summer. They wanted to win a state championship and they did everything they possible could to win one today. I’m just so proud of them.”

The wait was especially agonizing for Nathan Mountain. The junior won a regional championship, then logged an impressive fi fth-place fi nish Saturday but accepted his medal without knowing whether or not his club was tops in Ohio. The Bombers celebrated behind Mountain, then welcomed him to the party with a dog-pile jubilee beSee TITLES, Page 2B

INDIAN HILL - Some days they run in excellent conditions with golden leaves fl oating through the slightly brisk autumn air. Other days, a cross country meet can look like the set of "Survivor" with chilly rain pelting runners in the face and a stiff wind impeding their progress.

After several classes of races, those that are the last to run may have the footing of a toddler on a freshly, mopped fl oor. Running a 5K (3.1 miles) at a pace just over 5:30 per mile is not an easy task for the fi ttest of the fi t.

Throw in rain-soaked, cold clothes and whatever elements Mother Nature draws up, the sport can be brutal.

Some that fi nish fall doubled over in pain. Others run immediately to strategically placed garbage cans. On the course, it's everyone for themselves (though many teams will stay in a pack). Across the fi nish line, everyone is your friend.

Such was the case Saturday, Oct. 26 in Troy, site of the regional race for area runners. Indian Hill seniors Alex Galbraith and Bradley Coral had crossed the fi nish line but noticed Madeira's Dylan Whitson struggling after his fi nish.

Whitson went down.

CHCA clinches 1st trip to Division III volleyball state tourney with win over defending champ Versailles Mark Schmetzer

Special to Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

KETTERING – Ainsley Droege celebrated so hard, she sprained her right ankle.

She wasn’t feeling much pain.

The Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy senior and co-captain had good reason to party. She and her Eagle teammates had just clinched the program’s fi rst-ever trip to the Division III volleyball state tournament, knocking off twotime defending state champion Versailles, 17-25, 35-33, 25-20, 25-12, in Saturday’s regional fi nal at Kettering Fair-

mont High School’s C.M. Trent Arena.

“This is unbelievable, honestly,” said Droege, sitting on the bench with CHCA’s only other senior, Jessica Schaad, the niece of coach Lisa Schaad.

The right side of her lower ankle already was swelling and she was awaiting a tape job. “My freshman year, I never could have imagined this could happen.”

“It’s surreal – absolutely surreal,” Lisa Schaad said. “I’m shaking.”

The Eagles (21-6), who were tied for No. 17 in the fi nal state volleyball coaches’ association Division III statewide poll, have won six straight matches and eight of their last nine with the only loss to Division II-power Bishop Fenwick.

They are scheduled to face the winner of Saturday’s regional fi nal between top-ranked Ottawa-Glandorf and No.2 Liberty-Benton at 2 p.m. Thursday at

Wright State University’s Ervin J. Nutter Center.

hind the podium once he stepped down.

"It was nerve-wracking. I was just thinking about it the whole time," said Mountain, who fi nished 67th at last year's state event. "I’m here for the boys so the team title meant the most. It was the best feeling ever to jump into their arms once I heard we won it all."

Silver Knights rejoice There was no post-race drama for Summit Country Day. The fi nal result was not in question as the Silver Knights took home the program's fi rstever state championship by 14 points.

The whole team took turns celebrating with a horde of blue and silver supporters along the chain-link fence adjacent to the fi nish line.

It felt like an overdue title as Saturday marked Summit's eight trip to state in the last decade. Finishing as an 18point runner-up to Fort Loramie last November provided extra incentive.

"There was a lot of motivation, I'm not gonna lie. There was a ton," Summit head coach Kurtis Smith said. "I know Northeast Ohio always comes here and dominates the state meet, so these guys had a chip on their shoulder and they ran with it today. They wanted to come back here and prove they belong."

It was quality over quantity that paved Summit's path to being the top Division III team in the state. The Silver Knights had only runner make the podium — junior Evan Lakhia, who fi nished 19th — but high-caliber fi nishes from Andrew Wagner (24th), Matthew Brumfi eld (30th), Brian DeWine (35th)

and Devin Nelson (54th), lifted them over runner-up Mount Gilead.

"This group, we've been through a lot and this means a lot. For our seniors, especially Brian DeWine, he's like our heart and soul," Smith said. "Last night we had a team meeting and he said, 'I don't care what happens tomorrow, I just love running with you guys.' That really set the tone. The whole race we moved up as a group and we won it as a team."

DeWine shared that sentiment with an heartfelt praising of his teammates following the race.

"I love my boys so much," the senior said. "I had an injury early on this season and to come back for regionals and state — it's just so special. I’ve never had a group of people I love as much as these guys. Every single second I spent with them was amazing and today it really came together."

Asked if he could hold back tears once his team received the trophy, he replied with a guff aw, "We'll see, I can't make any promises."

He couldn't.

Other locals fi nd the podium Lakhia was the only Greater Cincinnati runner to fi nd the podium in Division II and III. Badin junior Owen Mathews was the top local fi nisher in D-II at 32nd.

In Division I, Mason sophomore Aiden Amshoff made the podium after fi nishing 14th. Fellow Comet Johan Meyer, a senior, joined him in 19th to anchor the club's runner-up fi nish.

Kings junior Alex Justus (12th) and Lebanon senior Sam Duncan (13th) turned in medal-winning performances as Greater Cincinnati occupied 25 percent of the fi nal podium on the afternoon.

long, Galbraith and Coral went to his aid immediately. While it's not unusual to see a runner need aid after a race, you don't always see an archrival stop their own recovery process to aid the opposition.

"He was struggling physically," Coral said. "It was a tough course, so we just helped him over to his team."

Madeira coach Josh Dooley, a Mustang runner from the class of '04, noticed Whitson was having issues.

"Dylan in the last quarter-mile, his legs seized up and his body position got really bizarre," Dooley said. "He couldn't see and he was trying really slowly to get to the fi nish line. He was way off his time he usually runs because he was dehydrated and cold and tired and all that."

Whitson was Madeira's top fi nisher at the Cincinnati Hills League meet running nearly 1:40 faster in better conditions. At the district meet, he was second to teammate Diego Arredondo, but again much faster. He has usually been Madeira's fi rst or second runner.

"It was very nice for the Indian Hill boys to show some nice team morale for their neighbors," Dooley said.

Coach Susan Savage has led Indian Hill cross country for 31 years. Those that have ran with her teams know her signature cheer of "Mooooooooooove!".

Though only Galbraith and Elizabeth Whaley from the girls team qualifi ed individually, she was pleased with the day's events from a diff erent perspective.

After the meet with the team having a late lunch, she showed Coral and Galbraith the picture she took of their post-race eff orts assisting Whitson.

"I'm extremely proud of the sports-

manship Alex and Bradley displayed," Savage said.

Galbraith snared the 16th and fi nal state-qualifying spot in Division II with his time and though Coral was just 18 seconds behind, he fell short. Neither knew their state status when they went to the aid of Whitson, whom they had known from other meets. At a big event like the Troy meet, it was CHL solidarity.

"Everybody's in it together," Galbraith said. "Even though you're racing each other, you all know how diffi cult it is, especially with all of the mud and stuff we had to run through there.

You're competitors, but you're also understanding."

Added Coral, "These are the same guys we've been running against for years. We know all the guys. It's a good group of people."

Galbraith said with mud fl ying everywhere at the beginning, it was far from a normal race, which was refl ected in the times. It was hard to move around runners due to the lack of traction.

As for Whitson, he is trying to overcome soreness from the experience at Troy. Dooley said he experienced blurry vision and slurred speech, but recovered after 30-40 minutes and a fair amount of Gatorade.

Saturday at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, Ohio, Galbraith will represent Indian Hill in the boys race alone.

Whitson, whose entire Madeira team qualifi ed at the torrential Troy meet will be there again, thanks in part to the eff orts of a pair of Brave samaritans and medical personnel on hand to get him back on his feet. Madeira's girls also qualifi ed as a team.

Conditions are expected to be chilly at the state meet (under 50 degrees), but there's no rain forecasted after Thursday. Last year's meet was postponed a week due to fl ooding.

Schaad led the Eagles with four aces.

Junior outside hitter-middle blocker and co-captain Annie Lockett fi nished with a team-high .318 hitting percentage and six solo blocks. Junior libero Katelyn Grimes sparked the defense with 20 digs, while sophomore setter Carmen Soloria piled up 28 assists.

CHCA, with a 2-1 game lead, raced to a 10-0 lead in the Game 4 behind the serving of outside hitter Rylie Wichmann against Versailles, which fi nished the season with a tie for the poll’s 12th slot.

“That’s my baby girl serving,” Todd Wichmann proudly tweeted.

“We served well and didn’t make as many mistakes, and they were making more mistakes,” Lisa Schaad said about the Game 4 eruption.

Versailles (15-13) ended the fi rst game with an 11-2 run. Senior middle blocker Lindsey Winner, on her way to reaching four fi gures in career kills, scored eight of the points, including the clincher with her sixth kill of the stretch.

The Eagles lost a 22-16 lead in Game 2

before fi ghting off two game points to pull out a 35-33 match-tying win. Lockett came up with a kill to tie the score and a block to place CHCA at game point, converted by Jessica Schaad

when her serve was returned out.

“We talked all week about taking everything one point at a time, one day at a time,” Lisa Schaad. “We talked about controllables, what you can control.”

CHCA took a 2-1 lead with a 25-20 Game 3 win. The Eagles took the lead 1312 and held it through the end of the game, closed out when Soloria’s serve was returned into the stands.

As Patents Expire and New Sex Pills Flood the Market, One Stands Out Among the Rest

As the last patents on the big pharma’s ‘little blue pill’ runs out, interest in finding new, natural remedies has been renewed. And out of all the new ones out there, there’s one getting all the attention.

The new pill called Vesele is part of a new class of performance enhancers for men.

It works on the body and mind, triggering arousal and encouraging firmer and harder erections.

Formulated with a special compound known as an “accelerator”, Vesele can transport its active ingredients faster and more efficiently into the blood stream, where it begins to work its magic.

The patented ingredient blend initiates a process known as vasodilation, which causes arteries and vessels throughout the body to expand. This allows blood to flow directly to penis and genitals, resulting in harder erections which last longer.

But what makes Vesele so remarkable, and what these other sex pills can’t do, is that also directs a small portion of this blood flow to the brain, which creates feelings of intense arousal. In laymen’s terms, users become incredibly excited and turned on.

This is why the makers of Vesele say their pill has worked so effectively in Clinical Use Survey Trials (CUST). It stimulates the two most important organs for great sex, the penis and the brain.

The Brain Erection Connection Until now, medical researchers did not fully understand the brain-erection connection. It has now been made clear with Vesele. When both are supplied with a constant blood flow, men are harder and firmer for longer...and have unbelievable sex drives.

“Most of the research and treatment methods for men’s sexual failures have focused on physiological factors and have neglected the emotional ones. For the leading sex drugs to work, like Cialis and Viagra, you need visual stimulation” explains Dr. Stephen Klayman, spokesperson for Vesele.

“And although they work for some men, the majority

COMMUNITY NEWS Continued from Page 3B America’s New Sex Pill? Researchers seem to think so. Vesele is a new pill that cost just $1 a dose does not require a prescription. It works on both body and mind to increase arousal and hardness.

experience absolutely no fulfillment during sex.

According to research published by the National Institute of Health, 50% of men taking these drugs stop responding or can’t tolerate their side effects...and on top of that they spend $50 per pill and it doesn’t even work half the time.

This is what makes Vesele so different and effective. It floods the blood stream with key ingredients which cause arteries all over the body to expand. The patented accelerator speeds up this process even more.

The result is a rush of blood flow to the penis and brain, helping to create an impressive erection and a surging desire for sex. Often, this is all men need to get going. And when taken regularly, many men say they are energized and aroused all day.”

Great Sex At Any Age With the conclusion of their latest human clinical use survey trial, Dr. Klayman and his team are now offering Vesele in the US. And regardless of the market, its sales are exploding.

Men across the country are eager to get their hands on the new pill and according to the research, they should be.

In the trial above, as compared to baseline, men taking Vesele saw a staggering 85% improvement in hardness over a four-month period. They also stayed harder for longer two times longer to be exact.

These same men also experienced an astounding 82% increase in the desire for sex (libido/sex drive) and an even greater improvement in overall satisfaction and ability to satisfy their partners.

Many men taking Vesele described feeling horny and aroused through the day. The anticipation before sex was amazing. They were also easily turned on. Their moods were more upbeat and positive, too.

Faster Absorption into the Blood Stream Vesele is made up of three specialized ingredients: two extra strength vasodilators and a patented absorption enhancer often called an accelerator.

According to an enormous amount of clinical data, each is very safe.

They are even listed by the FDA as GRAS ingredients.

Research shows that with age, many men lose their desire and interest in sex. They also struggle to produce an erection firm enough for penetration.

And although there are many theories as to why this happens (including a loss in testosterone) one thing is certain, inadequate blood flow is virtually always to blame. That’s why sex drug manufacturers focus on blood flow, it makes you hard so you can have sex.

But what’s more surprising, and what these manufacturers have failed to consider, is that lack of blood flow can also kill your sex drive.

That’s because blood supplies the brain with energy. This energy is required for creating the brainwaves that make you feel aroused and excited.

Studies show the Vesele stimulates the entire cardiovascular system, including the arteries that lead to both the brain and penis wheras other sex pills focus only on the erection.

The extreme concentration of the ingredients combined with the accelerator ensures that this process starts quickly.

The sexual benefits of Vesele are also multiplied as its ingredients build up in the system over time. This is why many men take it every single day.

Recent Studies Show Positive Effects on Women “In our most recent study, women taking Vesele saw a stunning 52% improvement in arousal and sex drive. Perhaps more impressive, they also experienced a 57% improvement in lubrication.

You can imagine why some couples are taking Vesele together.

Everything feels better. Everything works better.

Everyone performs better. It’s truly amazing.”

For Immediate Release US− Are we witnessing the end of an era for Viagra?

Since the famous “little blue pill” exploded on the market in 1998, becoming the fastest selling drug in history, it has made vast sums marketing it to sexually frustrated men all over the world.

Within three months of its launch, Viagra had already earned $400m, and over the past two decades, it has consistently generated annual sales to the tune of $1.8bn.

However, this will soon come to an end, as in 2020, as the remaining patents on Viagra expire for good.

A whole host of generic versions have emerged in the past six years, often in quirky forms such as mint strips or breath sprays, as big pharma’s grip on the rights to the drug has slowly loosened.

Soon, these are expected to flood the market, as manufacturers jostle for a slice of the pie.

But while virtually everyone is focused on these generics, savvy consumers are focused on something much different.

And although it’s natural, its performance has researchers far more impressed.

For the first time in a while, America has a new sex pill.

gomery off ers contests to usher in holiday cheer as a part of the Holiday in the Village annual event held on Saturday, Dec. 7, from 5-7:30 p.m.

The Montgomery Coloring Contest for students’ grades preschool through sixth grade invites contestants to go wild with color and creativity. ❚ Categories include Most Creative, Best Use of Color, and Overall Skill. ❚ Winners will be chosen in the following grade groups: preschool, kindergarten, fi rst-second grade, third-fourth grade, and fi fth-sixth grade. ❚ We will announce the prize winners in each of the groups before the tree lighting ceremony during Holiday in the Village, and each winner will receive a prize. ❚ We will enter the winners from each category into a raffl e where one name will be randomly drawn to fl ip the switch to light the tree at the tree lighting ceremony, held at 5 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7. ❚ Pick up entry forms at City Hall or download the fl yer on the City’s website at montgomeryohio.org starting Nov. 1. ❚ Coloring Contest Forms are due to Montgomery City Hall by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 22.

Festival of Trees Contest seeks contenders. Contestants are also invited to decorate an artifi cial 3-to-4foot tree in this fun holiday contest. Many past entries have exploded with creative twists on this traditional holiday icon. Entries went for beauty with the contrast of a white tree full of red birds, lit winter wonderland houses skirting the bottom of a tree and opulent ribbons and specks of glitter adding sparkle and brilliance. Other themes included potting plants and gloves, a Grinch towering over a tree, and even the Eiffel Tower glittered on a French-themed tree. All the entries were wildly creative and brought joy to all the festival attendees. ❚ Enter as a group, family, business, or as an individual. It’s not too early to start thinking of your creative theme and decorations! ❚ Your tree will be displayed at one of four locations during our Holiday in the Village event on Dec. 7. ❚ During the event, participants may vote for their

favorite tree. The tree with the highest total number of votes from each location will win a $50 prize. Also, all trees will be judged, and the one Best in the Village tree will win a $100 prize. ❚ More details are available online at montgomeryohio.org. Entry forms are due by Monday, Nov. 18, to Montgomery City Hall by 5 p.m.

The City of Montgomery, Ohio National Financial Services, Twin Lakes Life Enriching Communities, and Bethesda North Hospital sponsor the Festival of Trees Contest.

Michael Paleos, of Oyster Bay, N.Y., is chief of staff at a major investment bank. He started solving crosswords at a young age, but got hooked on them only after discovering the archive of puzzles in the New York Times app. ‘‘After doing enough of them, I started wondering what it would take to make one, and down the rabbit hole I went.’’ This is Michael’s second crossword for The Times, and his first Sunday. — W.S.
