Lower Blood-Alcohol Motorcycle Crash.....AirCared 2 Limit a Possibility The National Transportation Safety Board wants state legislatures in Ohio to drop the current blood-alcohol limit of 0.08 to 0.05. The NTSB says, "That its research clearly shows drivers with a BAC above 0.05 are impaired and at a significantly greater risk of being involved in a crash where someone is killed or injured." This is according to NTSB Chairwoman Deborah Hersman.

Using a 160 pound person for example would reach the proposed new law limit with 0.05 with one dry martini or two beers.

The 0.08 current standard might allow the same person to drive legally after two beers or a couple of margaritas, according to a University of Oklahoma

calculator. Understand, that the move to 0.05 BAC is clearly a possibility.

While Ohio might be reluctant to pass the reduction, in the past Congress has tied adopting safetyboard recommendations to federal highway funds. The NTSB cannot order the proposal into effect, but in the past the federal government has threatened to

withhold highway subsidies from states that did not adopt uniform safety measures.

Some quick points to mention.

Drinking and driving is the leading cause of death for Americans 17-24 years old.

70 people die each day in America in drunk driving accidents.

On Memorial Day, Monday, May 27, the Jefferson Twp. Fire Department and the West Union life Squad was dispatched to a motorcycle crash.

Huntington Hospital, Huntington, W. Va. As of press time Stanley remained in the hospital.

St. Rt. 125 was shut down for a period of time due to the crash.

The West Union Fire Department and the Nile Twp. Fire Department assisted at the scene.

The crash remains under investigation by the Ohio State Highway Patrol.

Relay for Life....AC Fighting Cancer

Pictured is one of several Mitigated Properties that is in Manchester. This particular location is on Washington St. Volunteers are seen preparing the property.

The Village of Manchester is seeing work being done on one of their many FEMA Mitigated properties. According to FEMA regulations on the FEMA Mitigated properties is to plant gardens, flowers or trees. In a Council meeting in April 2012 Manchester Council decided to partner up with Karma Points to began using the FEMA Mitigated properties for the purposes of gardening, flowers and/or fruit trees.

The village began acquiring different properties throughout the village floodplain by the past several administrations due to the 1997 flood. The current council decided that it was in the best interest of the village to move these properties into the oversight of Karma Points where they will work with the village and help find

useful means of the properties other then green space.

The village has spent countless hours on mowing the properties.

Karma Points spent time during 2012 on preparing for a grant that they were awarded later in 2012. Karma Points has also held several community meetings at the Community Building earlier this year to educate the public on what they were planning for the properties and useful gardening tips.

Washington St. is the first piece of property to start with the gardening project that will be beneficial to the Manchester community organizations. Other parcels of the FEMA Mitigated properties are in the process of being developed much like the Washington St. parcel in the future.

Lawmakers Considering One License Plate A pair of state lawmakers are working to make Ohio a one-plate state for motorists.

State Reps. Terry Johnson, (R) from McDermott and Stephen Slesnick, (D) from Canton, sponsored legislation to require vehicle owners only need to display one Ohio license plate on the rear bumper of their vehicles.

Recently officials from several law enforcement agencies testified before the House Transportation, Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee. They said front plates make it easier for citizens to report people involved in crimes, allow police to locate vehi-

cles in crime or traffic investigations and help to identify motorists.

The bill could save the state more than $1 million annually, Rep. Slesnick said. That's in addition to savings for car owners with vehicles not built to have front license plates.

They face additional costs to have brackets for the plates put on the fronts of their cars.

"This has nothing to do with deterring crime," Slesnick said. "What is going on in states that don't

require front license plates?"

The five states that surround Ohio are: Pennsylvania, Kentucky, West Virginia, Indiana and Michigan and they only require one license plate.

CoverCrops & Soil Health Workshop and Field Day There will be a Cover Crop & Soil Health Workshop on Saturday, June 8 at the OSU South Centers beginning at 9:00 a.m. and will go until 4:00 p.m. The registration deadline is June 1, 2013 and you can register by calling Debby Basham at 740-2599231 or e-mail Debby.Basham@oh.nacdnet.n et Lunch will be provided and attendees will receive one soil test kit. The first 50 registered will receive two soil test vouchers from Scioto & Lawrence Co. SWCD. The cost for the day is $10.

This one-day workshop is suited for the beginner or seasoned farmer looking to improve soil quality and reduce crop production costs by growing cover crops. The hands-on workshop will cover critical soil health topics and provide farmers information on how to get started using cover crops. Regional experts, including Dave Brandt, an Ohio farmer who has been featured nationally for his extensive cover crop use, will introduce techniques to adopt cover crop technologies that could potentially reduce crop production costs.

Tobacco Update The weather this spring has given producers something to think about when it comes to any crop. Trying to get crops into the fields has been a challenge to say the least. The tobacco plants are no different. Producers need to be aware of issues that the recent weather may have presented. The insect and disease pressure is likely higher than most of the season to this point, and the forecast for the last few days of May is in the 80s. Below are just a few reminders for producers including some directions for the use of available products.

Slugs have been a problem in some places. Good weed control around the outside of the bed and/or greenhouse will help reduce this problem. Baits may also be needed if slugs are present.

The use of baits around the outside of the bed will normally provide adequate control.

Cutworms may also be a problem. Orthene is about the only option for this problem.

Disease wise, there are a number of things that you could be dealing with.

hundred gallons of water as a preventative or 1.4 ounces as a cure. The easiest way to calculate this is to use a syringe. One fluid ounce is just a little more than 29 and a half cc or ml (cubic centimeters or milliliters). To calculate the amount of water in the bed you can count the number of trays and measure the depth of the water in a few places to come up with an average. Take the number of trays multiplied by the average depth of the water in inches and multiply that by 1.64. So, 40 trays in 4 inches of water would be (40 x 4 x 1.64) and would end up David Dugan being around 262 gallons Extension Educator, Agriculture and Natural of water.

The Master Gardener - Blooms Galore

By Faye Mahaffey, OSUE Brown County Master Gardener Volunteer On a recent drive down to Georgetown I enjoyed looking for plants and trees in full bloom. Ox-eye Daisies, Daisy Fleabane, Black Locust trees, Fringe trees, and Tuliptrees were just a few that caught my attention.

A few weeks ago the fields were blooming purple, but now we are seeing the yellow bloom of Cressleaf groundsel (Senecio glabellus) everywhere. This winter annual germinates in fall, then blooms and finishes its lifecycle the following spring. It produces thousands of fluffy seeds that are dispersed by wind. Mature plants killed by cultivation or herbicide can actually still produce seeds! Cressleaf groundsel goes through winter as a short rosette. In spring, the plant will elongate, producing alternate, deeply lobed leaves on a hollow stem. Flowers are yellow and borne in clusters. A similar plant Common Groundsel (Senecio vulgaris) has a similar habit, but does not have a hollow stem and is shorter, usually reaching 8 – 12 inches.

Cressleaf groundsel is toxic to grazing animals. However, it is not preferred forage and there have been no documented cases of poisoning by Cressleaf groundsel in Ohio.

The Tuliptree (Liriodendron tulipifera) blossoms were spectacular this year! The flower is large, showy and tulip-shaped, 1 – 2 inches long, made of 6 yellow petals with orange bases. A member of the Magnolia (Magnoliaceae) family, this tree can reach heights of 80 – 100 feet and is often one of the tallest trees in the forest. The Tuliptree likes moist soils, and can often be found along streams, ponds and other wet places.

Do you have peonies in your flower gardens? If not, and you would like to learn more about growing peonies, be sure to check out the OSUE Fact Sheet, Growing Peonies (HYG-1241-94) found at ohioline.osu.edu.

Did you know that peonies are one of the traditional flowers used on graves for Memorial Day? Peonies have large flowers that can be either double or single and when in bloom, the flowers can completely cover the plant. In addition, their fragrance is hard to beat. The foliage is shiny green and looks good all growing season.

Peonies can be very long-lived in the landscape and are oftentimes passed down through generations. A myth about ants and peonies has existed for years, but the truth is the buds open on their own and don’t need the help of the ants. The ants are simply attracted to the sweet sap secreted by the flower buds! The presence of ants on peony blossoms is neither beneficial nor harmful to the plant.

We have also been hearing about something appearing in landscapes that

Tuliptree Flower isn’t so pretty! Dog vomit slime mold (Fuligo septica) is a common problem this time of year. After gardeners put down a fresh layer of mulch they often see this aptly named growth showing up a few weeks later. This dog vomit is actually a slime mold that exists as an almost clear thin blob that crawls around the surface of the garden. When it is developed enough to reproduce, it pulls itself together into the more recognizable pile that some describe as scrambled eggs. Eventually the mold will brown to the recognizable pile gardeners describe as dog vomit. At this point, the slime mold spores are released to start the process over again.

Dog vomit slime mold is not harmful to plants. There is no way to totally eradicate it from the garden. However, some people have reported that watering in new mulch does help reduce the amount of slime mold. Also, any pile of sporulating slime mold can be scooped up with a shovel and deposited out of sight – breaking it up or blasting it with water will only help it spread its spores!

The tomatoes are finally planting (in between the falling rain), the lettuce is looking great and I am headed out to plant a new kind of zucchini! The first kind is round and the second kind is supposed to stay “baby” size and not explode into a zucchini boat. I will let you know how they produce as the season goes.

Count your jars of canned goods and make your list! Canning time will be here before we know it!

Field reports from ODNR Division of Wildlife Officers Southeast Ohio During opening day of the 2012 deer gun season, State Wildlife Officer Jerrod Allison and Coshocton County Sheriff Deputy Bob Wagner were on patrol in Coshocton County. The officers made contact with two hunters, one of which had successfully taken a deer.

Everything seemed to check out OK to the officers until Officer Allison asked one of the hunters if he had taken any deer. The hunter said that he had taken a deer earlier in the year with a bow, and he had shot a deer earlier that morning. Officer Allison thought that sounded odd because the hunter had given him two unused deer tags and one that had been used that morning. Officer Allison was able to determine that neither of the deer that he had taken had been checked in. A ticket was issued for not tagging in that deer and the officers advised him that the deer he had taken in the morning was still within the time frame of getting it tagged in on time.

Officer Allison checked at a later date and found that the hunter did tag in that deer during the required time frame. The hunter was found guilty in Coshocton Municipal Court.

Southwest Ohio In October 2012 Investigator Joel Buddelmeyer received a TIP regarding an individual that had his hunting & fishing privileges revoked in September 2012 by Montgomery County Job and Family Services (MCJFS) for failure to pay child support.

Investigator Buddelmeyer contacted MCJFS and confirmed that a letter had been mailed to the suspect stating that his driving privileges as well as any recreational licenses were suspended until the issue of the child support payment was resolved.

Investigator Buddelmeyer checked the license database and discovered that the suspect purchased a hunting license and deer permit after receiving the letter and also confirmed that ODNR Division of Wildlife had suspended his hunting and fishing privileges. Investigator Buddelmeyer was also told that the suspect had harvested game and that photographic

evidence was available.

Investigator Buddelmeyer later discovered a photograph which showed the suspect holding a shotgun, dressed in hunter orange and posing with a small, antlerless deer, with an identifiable vehicle in the background. The photo had a caption stating that the suspect “tagged out.”

Further investigation showed that the suspect had not checked any deer in.

Investigator Buddelmeyer contacted the owner of the vehicle.

Investigator Buddelmeyer then contacted the suspect at his residence.

The suspect denied even shooting a deer. He told the investigator that he had shot at some deer but had not killed any. Once investigator showed him the photographic evidence, he admitted that he had shot the deer (a doe) in Pike County but forgot to check the deer in as required.

The suspect was cited for hunting under revocation in Xenia Municipal Court but later had the charge dismissed upon payment of child support. The suspect was also cited into Dayton Municipal Court for failing to permanently tag a deer.

The suspect and his attorney appeared in Dayton Municipal Court before the Judge and pleaded guilty.

He was sentenced to 60

days suspended jail time, $250 fine, $111 court costs, and the deer meat was forfeited to the Ohio Division of Wildlife.

Central Ohio – Wildlife District One On May 4, 2013 State Wildlife Officers John Coffman and Matt Teders assisted with a trout derby in Fayette County hosted by the Fayette County Bass Masters Club in cooperation with the Ohio Division of Wildlife. Over four hundred young anglers attended the event to try their hand at catching rainbow trout that were stocked on the local ponds by the Division of Wildlife. Aside from an excellent fishing experience the youth involved were provided lunch and an opportunity to win a wide assortment of prizes.

While patrolling during the statewide deer gun season, State Wildlife Officer Barry Hennig assigned to Portage County received a call from the county sheriff’s office regarding a hunting without permission complaint. Officer Hennig along with Wildlife District Three Manager Doug Miller responded to the call. When they arrived on scene the female landowner had the hunters waiting and indicated that she wanted the group charged with the violation. The results of the investigation revealed that one of the men had shot a deer and was tracking it on the complainant’s property.

He was also hunting with a shotgun capable of holding more than three shells. The man was charged, pled guilty to both wildlife violations, and was fined $150.00 plus court costs.

Father's Day is Sunday, June 16

There's More to Father's Day Than Just Ties Somewhere between when Father's Day was first established in June of 1910 and present day the tie has become synonymous with the holiday.

One may never know just who introduced the tie into the picture. It certainly wasn't the person credited for making Father's Day a mainstream holiday.

Sonora Dodd, of Washington, came up with the concept for a "father's day." She thought of the idea while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909, and realized there should be a similar day set aside to honor fathers, most especially her father, William Smart. Smart was a Civil War veteran and also a widower, who raised his six children all on his own.

When Dodd became an adult, she realized how selfless her father had acted and how difficult it must have been to raise such a large family. In his honor, she held a father's day in Spokane, Washington on June 10 -her father's birthday. The idea of the holiday was supported by President Calvin Coolidge in 1924.

But it wasn't until 1966, when President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the third Sunday of June as Father's Day, and subsequently when President Richard Nixon signed the law in 1972 that the holiday became permanent.

Since then Father's Day has been celebrated annually worldwide. And, the sale of ties spikes considerably at that time of year. After all, could there possibly be a gift that fits Dad more perfectly than a

tie? The answer is a resounding yes.

By now your father may have enough ties to fill his closet. So this year, consider a gift that may be more heartfelt and unique.

Here are some ideas: Music and movies: Reasearch Dad's favorite musical artists or actors and put together a care package filled with DVDs or CDs. If he's a high-tech sort of fellow, download MP3 tunes that he can use on his iPod or similar player. * Food: It's often been said that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Play upon this notion by cooking Dad his favorite foods or treating him to a night out at a restaurant he's wild about. * Family portrait: What Dad doesn't like to brag about his kids? Set up a photo opportunity with a local photographer or enlist another family member to take a picture when the gang is all together. Enlarge the image and frame it for his desk, workshop, or any place Dad loves to hang out. * Detail his car: Give dad a gift certificate to a car wash or auto spa. He'll leave with his prized set of wheels sparkling clean. * Novelty ties: If giving a tie is a family tradition, try any number of novelty ties that might fit Dad's personality. Or better yet, purchase a lightcolored tie in a solid shade. Design a greeting or picture on your computer and print it out on ironon transfer paper. Adhere to the tie with a warm iron and you'll have a one-of-akind personalized gift.

What's New In Dad's Day Gifts?

Every year, shoppers across the country hit the stores looking for heartfelt gifts for both Mother's Day and Father's Day. While some of Mom's favorites, such as chocolate, flowers or jewelry, will never go out of style, when scouring the stores for Dad you may come up short on ideas.

That's because it's often hard to figure out what Dad would most appreciate.

Whether Dad is a new father or a seasoned veteran who already has a few grandchildren, the options for Father's Day may seem limiting if you don't use your imagination and think creatively. Here are some starting off points to consider. * Does Dad like to drive? For the dad who is a driving enthusiast or car buff, a host of options exist. Help Dad accessorize or take care of his wheels with a car wash and detailing. Seek out a local car wash and purchase a gift certificate. If Dad likes to get his hands dirty, look for a detailing kit and buy him some new washing supplies.

But dads who are car enthusiasts don't just love to take care of their vehicles, they often love to hit the open road as well. Take Dad on a weekend road trip. This can be an especially good gift for the father who still loves the road but can no longer drive himself. Plan an

adventure to get away and see some sights. Because Father's Day falls in June, the welcoming weather most regions of the country enjoy throughout the month makes it a perfect time to hit the open road. * Has Dad recently relocated? If your father recently moved out of a region where he had grown up or was accustomed to, be it to retire or further his career, consider a gift that gives him a slice of home away from home. For example, lots of men are big sports fans. However, when it's time to retire, they might move far away from their favorite teams and lose touch as a result.

A gift such as a satellite radio or satellite television can ensure they don't miss a minute of their favorite team's action.

Such gifts work for dads who aren't sports fans as well. Because satellite radios and televisions offer local channels from all across the country, Dad can stay in touch with his hometown even if he's now living thousands of miles away. * Is Dad a history buff? For the Dad who loves history, a trip to a historic locale can be a great gift. Whether Dad is a war buff or a sports fanatic, a number of options exist. For the Dad who is a baseball fan, consider a ballpark tour of some the sports' famous

Father's Day is a time for sons and daughters to recognize the men in their lives. Those who run alongside bicycles while their children are learning to ride, who rescue kids from Mom-imposed grounding, and who feel trips to the ice cream shop should be a weekly ritual.

When it comes to offering Dad gifts in honor of his special day, younger children will likely find that handmade gifts from the heart are ones Dad cherishes the most. Here are a number of heartfelt, crafty ideas that children can put together for Father's Day. 1. Brimming basket: Fill a basket full of Dad's favorite foods or items related to his pastimes. Place a hand-crafted card inside and wrap with colored cellophane.

2. Scrapbook: Children can gather their favorite photos of moments they've shared with Dad and put together a small scrapbook with artwork or cutouts from magazines. Craft stores now devote entire aisles to scrapbooking supplies.

3. Personalized baseball cap: Use fabric paint or fabric markers to draw designs or messages on a light-colored baseball hat.

4. Coupon book: Put together a book of coupons that treat Dad to special things, such as a homemade breakfast, a day off of any chores, or anything you can think of. Sign all the coupons and make a personalized cover. Staple everything together, then give to Dad. 5. Footprint craft and poem: Children can either trace their footprints onto a piece of poster board or make a ceramic print (like those hand prints often done in school). Craft stores sell plaster kits that harden in mere minutes after an impression has been made into the mixture.

Accompany the footprint masterpiece with the following poem:

"Walk a little slower, Daddy," said a child so small, I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.

Sometimes your steps are very fast, Sometimes they're hard to see; So walk a little slower, Daddy, For you are leading me.

Someday when I'm all grown up, You're what I want to be; Then I will have a little child Who'll want to follow me.

And I would want to lead just right, And know that I was true, So walk a little slower, Daddy, For I must follow you."

budgets, how about a trip to trace Dad's lineage? * Does Dad like to relax? Few Father's Day gifts are as much a homerun as a new chair.

Seemingly since the beginning of time, dads have always had a favorite chair to come home to and relax in after a day at work. A new recliner or easy chair could be just what Dad needs. Because these items can be expensive, enlist a sibling or two to help pay for the gift.

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor: The Informer article, May 28, 2013, page one, about "High Hazards" Ohio dams in need of repair could not mention all 1,000 on the list; it gave those in Adams and Brown counties.

Readers might be interested in knowing that four of the five CCC lakes in Shawnee State Forest Bear Creek, McBride, Pond Lick, and Wolfden are on the list as are Turkey Creek and Roosevelt in Shawnee State Park. Churn Creek in Adams County is not on the list for the forest.

Ohio's Senator

Sherrod Brown is sponsoring a Water Resources Development Act, cosponsored by Ohio Senator Rob Portman and others.

This act, among other things, would provide resources for dam inspection, maintenance and the development of Emergency Action Plans.

The four forest CCC dams receive regular inspection and maintenance.

Emergency Action Plans are being developed

by ODNR's Division of Engineering to update existing Emergency Preparedness Plans which have action flow charts

already posted at Shawnee's headquarters office.

In 1999 three of the dams - Bear Creek, McBride and Wolfden were concrete coated and otherwise "repaired." Pond Lick dam currently has plans for concrete coating even though there is nothing wrong with the levee.

These four small dams should not be on the Ohio "High Hazards" list for plans and repair. They should be taken off the list.

Senior Living

Financial Resources Contain a Wealth of Information Box in Corner Quilt Block Throughout life we encounter several stages where we must make “big” financial decisions. Going to college, buying a car, getting married, buying a home, having or adopting children, and planning for retirement are among some of the “big” financial decisions we encounter throughout life. When faced with these decisions, we often experience a variety of feelings such as feeling unprepared, anxious, nervous, stressed, and so on.

When we encounter these decisions, what do we commonly do? More often than not, we will talk to a friend, family member, or professional who has experience in this particular area.

Additionally, we may also consult print resources and the Internet for additional information. When consulting other resources, it is important to use reliable sources.

One reliable source that was shared with me this week is called M y M o n e y . g o v ( w w w. m y m o n e y. g o v ) .

MyMoney.gov is a U.S. government website designed to share information about financial basics.

It utilizes information from 20 Federal Agencies and Bureaus to help Americans make smart financial deci-

By playing with prints, colors, solids and whites, this block can be rotated, sashed, and used in a variety of shapes and patterns. It is from my memory of a quilt our family had made out of old wool suits and it had newspaper for batting. It got so bad, we burned it in the 1980's. I wish I had taken a picture.

Sign me Thrifty Dear Thrifty: Not really, but it depends on the needle. Some needles have a blunt point since they are used to weave threads and yarn through open weave canvas or mesh.
