No pay hikes in latest Olentangy contract By TOM SHEEHAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Olentangy school board on July 20 approved one-year contract extensions for about 300 bus drivers, custodians and other classified union employees that include no base-pay raises and freeze steppay increases. The contracts with the two Ohio As-
sociation of Public School Employees locals, which represent bus drivers, custodians and other workers, is retroactive to July 1. The contracts will expire on June 30, 2012. Members from both locals ratified the contracts on June 30. Superintendent Wade Lucas said before the July 20 school board meeting that the contracts will save the district
about $150,000 for the 2011-12 school year. The contracts come on the heels of action earlier this summer by the district to freeze step-pay increases and provide no base-pay raises for about 300 nonunion classified workers, including secretaries and mechanics. That move will save the district another $200,000 next school year, officials have said.
The contract extensions now put all unionized contracts on the same timetable to expire next June, including the contract with teachers and certified personnel. The teachers’ current contract does allow for step-pay increases but no basepay raises. Lucas told board members that district employees are willing to sacrifice during tough economic times.
“They do understand the plight and economic conditions, not only of Olentangy schools, but the whole nation,” he said. The board also approved a settlement agreement with a health-care consortium of eight other school districts that Olentangy left last August. The settlement, See NO PAY HIKES, page A2
Orange Township delays fire levy a year By TOM SHEEHAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers Orange Township trustees on July 19 decided to wait until next year and not put a renewal fire levy on the Nov. 8 ballot. Trustees Rob Quigley, Nelson Katz and Jennifer Christian agreed they should not rush the issue to the ballot, instead taking time to educate the public on the need for a levy larger than the existing levy. The deadline to place an issue on the November ballot is Aug. 10. Trustees did not discuss when they might seek a levy in 2012.

The 2010 carryover was about $4 million. Officials have projected those funds will continue to dwindle unless additional money is obtained through a levy. Trustees recently agreed to ask the Delaware County auditor to certify a millage amount to raise $7 million a year to maintain existing fire department levels. Katz, who is the public safety liaison, on July 19 told the other trustees that a 6.7-mill levy would be needed. The existing levy costs homeowners $151.05 a year for each $100,000 of valuation. A 6.7-mill levy would cost the homeowner $205.19 per $100,000 of valuation, Katz said the auditor’s office told him. The average residential valuation in Orange Township was $223,809 in April.

Abrasive Technology celebrates 40 years By BONNIE BUTCHER ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Abrasive Technology, with headquarters in Lewis Center, is celebrating its 40th anniversary. The company, 8400 Green Meadows Drive North, manufactures grinding wheels and tools. The products are used in the dental, aerospace, stone-cutting and electronic industries, to name a few, said company president and founder Loyal Peterson Jr., of Dublin. The company is “shaping the world around us,” said Daryl Peterman of Columbus, a leadership team member and shareholder in the company. The phrase, “shaping the world around us” is an internal campaign the company uses to remind employees of the impact of their daily efforts. “The Waterford crystal ball that came down in Times Square in 2000 was ground with our diamond wheels,” said Loyal Peterman. “The

at the San Diego Zoo. (Dale) Chihuly uses our product to grind some of his glass (artwork).” The company’s process of welding diamonds to steel, called brazing, was patented in 1975 and was a “game-changer” in the field, he said. “We added a new bonding tech-
nology to what was available,” Loyal Peterman said. “Our patent was the most looked-at patent in the diamond industry for 20 years, and now that the 20-year patent expired, the process is used around the world by almost every diamond manufacturer.” A steel drill put into materials that are abrasive might wear out in minutes, said Loyal Peterman, but the company’s patented diamond drill lasts through a million pieces. Abrasive Technology’s products are cost-effective and more environmentally friendly, said Daryl Peterman, who is Loyal’s son. Though Loyal Peterman has been the sole owner of the company since 1992, he and three partners started it in 1971 with a product used in dentistry. “In the early days, we made the product at night, put it in the suitcases in the morning and went door to door selling to dentists, collecting money See ABRASIVE, page A6
Orange developing economic committee Police will host By BONNIE BUTCHER ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Orange Township is developing an economic advisory board. Township trustees are accepting applications from residents interested in serving on the five-seat committee. The Orange Township Economic Development Advisory Board will “assist in the retention and growth of existing business and the marketing and coordination of development of growth areas within Orange Township,” the bylaws of the board say. The advisory board will act only in an advisory capacity to the township trustees. The board’s goal is to be proactive about economic development, said trustee Robert Quigley, who proposed the idea.
“This is something I ran on during the election,” said Quigley. “I am very excited that it is moving forward. All the trustees approved the creation of this advisory board.” Township trustees approved forming the committee and its bylaws in June. Trustees will appoint the board members, who will serve without pay. Quigley said the board will meet roughly every other month, with details yet to be decided. Debbie Taronto, a member and founder of the Orange Township Business Association, said she is pleased to see the committee coming to fruition. “We’ve needed it for a while,” she told ThisWeek. “It will be great to welcome new businesses and to keep them informed on what

they can and cannot do, because there’s so many zoning rules it’s hard to keep up with. It will give them a better feel about the community and township.” The committee would work with Delaware County economic development director Gus Comstock, Quigley said. “The county has a great resource in Gus Comstock, and we need to figure out a way to use his talents, with our focus on the township,” he said. “Orange Township is a great community with great possibility for growth, and I want to ensure we are keeping in touch with the business community,” said Quigley. “We have a great blueprint with the land use plan and now we need to market ourselves for smart growth.” See ECONOMIC, page A6
National Night Out By BONNIE BUTCHER ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Powell Police Department will host a National Night Out celebration from 6:30 to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 2, on the Village Green Park, 47 Hall St., Powell. National Night Out events are hosted by police departments around the country. The evening is designed to foster crimeprevention awareness and community spirit, said Jeff Robinson, city spokesperson. The free event is “designed to heighten crime- and drug-prevention awareness, generate sup-
port for and participation in local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police community partnerships and allow the citizens of the community an opportunity to meet the individuals that serve them,” said Sgt. Scott Roach, event organizer. This year’s event will have an ice cream social theme, a press release from the city said. “Graeter’s, Rita’s and Menchies will all be on hand, giving out free ice cream, Italian ice and frozen yogurt, respectively,” it said. “What goes better with sum-

No pay hikes in latest Olentangy contract Continued from page A1 stemming from a lawsuit Olentangy filed in Delaware County Common Pleas Court last year, provides $2.1 million to Olentangy and $2.084 million to the consortium known as the Champaign, Delaware, Marion, Union School Employee Welfare Benefit Association. The court had ordered that $4.184 million be placed in a special fund after the lawsuit was filed. Olentangy, which joined the consortium in 1988, contended that was money owed to it upon leaving. The consortium countersued, saying Olen-
tangy was not owed that money. The consortium administers certain medical, dental and prescription drug benefits for eligible school district employees. Olentangy treasurer Becky Jenkins said before the meeting that the consortium was no longer meeting the needs of Olentangy because it is much larger than the other districts. “We could leave and be more cost-efficient with health care,” Jenkins said. As a result of the settlement, Olentangy will be reimbursed $2.1 million that it has already spent for health claims that were being processed at the time the dis-
trict left the consortium. That money will go into the district’s general fund, Jenkins said. The consortium had contended that a district leaving the group must forfeit any funds already paid to the group. Jenkins said the settlement was a fair compromise. All the school districts in the consortium must approve the settlement. An Olentangy spokeswoman on July 21 said some districts still must act on the settlement. After leaving the consortium, Olentangy hired with Medical Mutual of Ohio
to handle health care. That cost the district about $18 million this past year, Jenkins said. A district task force is exploring other health-care options in an attempt to reduce costs. Ted Knapke of the Educational Service Center of Central Ohio gave a presentation on a superintendent evaluation system being used in about 60 districts in the state. Olentangy also is using this process as part of the board’s first evaluation of Lucas, who was hired to a four-year contract in 2008. The process, which focuses on strengths such as goal-setting and per-
formance, also can be used to evaluate other administrators and staff. Lucas, who is paid $160,000 a year, and other Olentangy administrators, have forgone pay raises during the past couple of years. Board president Julie Wagner Feasel said after the meeting that it will be up to the board to decide upon completion of the evaluation whether to give Lucas a raise. The evaluation process will take several months, she said. “I am hoping that we can do it (the evaluation) in October or November,” she said.
Orange Township pushes fire levy back a year Continued from page A1 levy this fall. “We (trustees) need to do a better job explaining the need” for a levy, Katz said. “We must be on the ballot in 2012.” Quigley and Christian also agreed trustees should wait until next year. “The more communication you have (with residents), the better,” Christian said. Resident Bob Ruhlman told trustees he was concerned about any levy in November, especially on the heels of Olentangy schools’ successful levy in May. “It’s tough to justify that kind of (millage) increase,” Ruhlman
told trustees. Also at the meeting, Quigley and Katz accepted Christian’s resignation, effective Aug. 8. She and her family are moving out of state. Quigley and Katz will have 30 days from that date to appoint a new trustees. Interested applicants should apply by Aug. 5, they said. The appointed trustee will serve until Dec. 31. Because Christian was appointed a year ago to replace John Cassady when he resigned, anyone wishing to serve out the remaining two years of Cassady’s term must run in the November election. Such people would have to file with the Delaware County Board of Elec-
tions by Aug. 10. Quigley and Katz indicated it is unlikely they will appoint anyone before the filing deadline. The two trustees praised Christian for her work as a trustee. She previously served on the community park board. “It was quite an opportunity to serve the township. It’s been an honor,” Christian said. “I’m very sad to be moving on.” Trustees also: • Agreed the township park staff should remove dead ash trees that pose a safety issue at the Ro Park nature area. Beth Hugh, maintenance and parks director, told trustees the dead and dying trees, apparent victims of the emerald
ash borer, can be removed between fall and next spring. Hugh estimated as many as 60 percent of the trees in that wooded area are ashes. Replacement trees, such as oaks or maples, would be planted, she said. • Agreed to have the community park board develop a plan for scheduling some community
events in the parks. During a strategic planning session a few months ago, trustees decided more events are needed to help foster a community identity. Trustees want the park board to focus on a music event, a toucha-truck show at which township fire trucks and other township ve-
hicles would be displayed, and a community movie night. Trustees agreed that having such events is a good way to get people out to mingle with their neighbors. • Appointed Doug Frazier to the new position of parks supervisor for $20 an hour. • Rescheduled their Aug. 15 regular meeting to 6 p.m. Aug. 23.

The Furniture Heartland www.furnitureheartland.com
Have a "Mission" this summer
M
ission furniture was a name first coined by Joseph McHugh, a New York furniture manufacturer and retailer, to describe his line of straight line rustic style furniture that he began producing in 1895. The mission style furniture design was based on a chair that had been designed for the Swedenborgian Church of New Jerusalem in San Francisco. The word “mission” references the Spanish missions throughout colonial California.The style became increasingly popular following the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901. Mission furniture caught on as a generic term for the style of furniture and also the European term “arts and crafts” was used. Mission style is a design that emphasizes simple horizontal and
vertical lines and flat panels that accentuate the grain of the wood (usually oak). This style was also part of the Arts and Crafts movement which was inspired by the writings of John Ruskin and the romanticism that surrounded craftsmen that took pride in his own personal handiwork. The Arts and Crafts movement occurred both with the British and in the Americas, and it is great to know that furniture that dated back into such important eras of history are still popular today. The irony of the mission style furniture icon of the Arts and Crafts movement has been reversed of its original meaning in that it is now mass produced and merchandised, and thus loosing some of its uniqueness that people originally sought. Nevertheless, it is still a beautiful piece of furniture designed as such to add nice lines and art to a person’s home. By recognizing the mission style, homeowner’s recognize the style
that has lasted through the times. Mission arts and crafts has blended well from the 19th century all the way to the current 21st century in terms of interior design and décor. Characterized by clean, straight lines, geometric shapes, natural elements and handcrafted pieces, common materials associated with this decorating style include wrought iron, stained glass and hardwood.

LOG ON Letter
Lucas: Repeal followed kindergarten sign-ups To the editor: This letter is in response to Tracy Ruegg’s assertions regarding the all-day everyday kindergarten program to be offered at Heritage Elementary School during the 2011-12 school year. The previous state budget implemented an unfunded mandate that all districts offer all-day everyday kindergarten. In Olentangy, this would have required an additional 37 classrooms and many new staff members. We felt that financial burden was unfair to taxpayers in a district already trying to keep up with an enrollment growth of around 1,000 students each year. So the district worked with the Ohio Department of Education to obtain a waiver, and ODE agreed to let us phase in all-day everyday kindergarten beginning with a limited program for about 300 students during the 2011-12 school year. State lawmakers repealed the mandate for allday everyday kindergarten this spring, more than two months after Olentangy began kindergarten registration for the 2011-12 school year. At that point, we felt it was important to honor our commitment to offer the program for at least this upcoming school year. The 2011-12 program will cost the district about
$480,000. At this point, no decision has been made regarding the program’s future. We feel that allday everyday kindergarten can be an extremely valuable experience for many students, but we also know the benefits of the program must be weighed against the realities of decreased state funding and declining property tax revenues. Now that the state budget has been finalized, we’ll have the data we need to determine what is in the best interest of our district as a whole. The same law that repealed the mandate for allday everyday kindergarten also included a provision that would allow Olentangy to charge tuition for this program in the future. We are seriously considering this option, but since we are already expecting to have more than 9,000 preschool and elementary students in our 15 elementary schools next year, keeping up with the demands for classroom space may make that option impractical. If anyone has additional questions, please give us a call at (740) 657-4050. You’re also welcome to send an email to superintendent_blog@olentangy.k12.oh.us.

99 ways to scoff at 99 ways You’d think, after years of reading magazine lists, I’d have learned not to take them seriously. “Eleven Secret Love Tests Guys Give Women,” “15 Things Men Don’t Want You to Know About Them,” “3 Stay-Svelte Tips for the Weekend” — you know the kind of lists I mean. True, I’ve moved on from the examples above — all actual lists taken from Glamour magazine’s website — to lists that are more, shall we say, wide-ranging and general in scope, but the lists themselves aren’t noticeably more intelligent. But the best of the worst lists I’ve seen recently arrived as a fourpage, illustrated flier in the AARP Bulletin. It’s apparently a followup to a list published last summer, called “99 Great Ways to Save.” It was such a hit with readers, the editors decided to bring it back, this time calling it … well, this time calling it “99 Great Ways to Save” again. I can only imagine the happy laughter in the staff room when the decision to start compiling ways to save again was announced. My husband read the list first, then handed it to me because he knows the sort of thing I find hilarious. I can’t list all 99 Great Ways, of course; I’ll have to limit myself to mentioning a few of what I consider the greatest of the Great Ways to Save. No. 78, under the category “Home,” for instance. “Repurpose pantyhose,” this tip directs. “Use the legs to scrub dishes, shine shoes, train shrubs or store onions, flower bulbs and paintbrushes. The seat can protect squash and melons from garden critters or be stretched over a wire hanger to make a pond or pool skimmer.” Well, to address the last part first, if I had a pond or a pool and the need for a skimmer, I certainly wouldn’t take the chance of letting the neighbors recognize the business end of the skimmer as the sitting-down end of my pantyhose. Furthermore, I haven’t the slightest idea what a person can possibly hope to train shrubs to do. Odd jobs? Long division? All mine have ever been persuaded to do is play dead. But in any case, and leaving aside the fact that this tip and several others sound as if they were clipped from Heloise, I can’t use No. 78 because I almost never wear pantyhose.
I never go to yard sales, either, so No. 76: “Be a yard sale shark,” means nothing to me. Except that if AARP expects MARGO its demoBARTLETT graphic to purchase casseroles and slippers and other “choice items” at yard sales, I’ll have to find another market segment. Oh, here’s one I can’t wait to tell you about, No. 13: “Pay yourself.” This is how it works: “Put an open jar in a conspicuous place in your home. When you do something you might have paid for — ironing, cooking, fixing a good latte — feed the jar with the amount you’d have spent. Do the same if you resist the impulse to buy something. The money will add up fast.” It sure will. Especially after, once I can see that jar over there, I start making money-spending decisions like mad. Suddenly, I feel like taking an Alaskan cruise. But I guess I won’t — put $3,500 in the jar. Sometimes I think I could drink two more lattes a day. But I won’t because that would be nuts. Eight dollars in the jar! And if someone out there in the world is willing to iron my white T-shirts and the dog’s dress-up kerchiefs, let’s say I thought about it. Twenty-five dollars, saved in the jar. A brilliant plan, right? Except it won’t work, because for one thing, I don’t have the $3,500 that I’m not using for the cruise — that’s why I’m not going on the
cruise — and for another thing, once a person has a jar, she gets all self-conscious. When a person’s self-conscious, things like savings jars don’t work anymore. Oh, and listen to this: No. 33: “Cute choppers: If your whitening strips are too big for your teeth, cut them in half horizontally. Two for the price of one!” AARP, are you serious? Seriously serious? Do I need to tell you that not buying whitening strips will save a person $35, $40, which she can then pop into her savings jar? Though if that person has to be told to cut those whitening strips horizontally and not the other way, I guess she’s never going to get it. Another thing, AARP. No. 95: “Home spa. Pour a gallon of whole milk into a warm bath, then climb in. (Cleopatra did.)” Pour a gallon of whole milk down the drain? Is that what you’re advocating? Oh, sure, you’re suggesting we sit in it first, as if that makes a difference, and then it goes down the drain, without nourishing babies or children or calves or anybody. Just because Cleopatra did, eh? I suppose if Cleopatra told you to get bitten by an asp, you would. Let’s just hope you followed tip No. 37 first: “Go out green: Biodegradable coffins and other eco-friendly burial measures can cost half to two-thirds less than traditional burials.” Have to see it for yourself? Fine. Go to www.aarp.org/bulletin. Email Margo Bartlett at mbartlett@thisweeknews.com.

The Powell Police Department is warning residents about a phone scam designed to get their money. The “grandma scam” preys upon the emotions of senior citizens. It starts with a phone call in which the scammer tells the victim that a grandchild has been hospitalized or arrested out of the country and needs money for the medical bill or bail. A scammer recently used the “grandma scam” to prey upon an 86-year-old Powell resident, said Powell police detective Darren Smith. The scammer uses emotional language to make the victim believe the story, but never reveals the whereabouts of the grandchild. The scammer might also urge the victim not to contact anyone else about the phone call, supposedly to spare the grandchild embarrassment or legal trouble or to avoid delay. Finally, he asks the victim to send money immediately through wire transfer, usually Western Union or MoneyGram. Once the money is received, the scammer often calls back and asks the grandparent to pay additional money for other charges. “The victim stated that she was contacted by phone by an unknown male subject who said her grandson had been involved in a car accident,” Smith said, noting that the resident sent about $3,300 to the Dominican Republic via Western Union. “It was an unfortunate expe-

Abrasive Technology celebrates 40 years Continued from page A1 to make them the next night,” Peterman said. They started the business in Columbus before branching out to Cleveland, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis and Detroit “for a year selling product till we had enough sales,” he said. The company started on Huntley Road in Worthington. It moved to Lewis Center in 1986. “When we needed expansion room, (we) looked for land close to Worthington,” Peterman said. “Lewis Center was a growing location with plenty of room with amenities, such as a lake and mature trees. The whole ambiance was critical to me in building a facility that met what the organization is about.” The Lewis Center facility is 100,000 square feet and has 175
employees. The company has grown to 11 locations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Britain, Spain, Singapore, Germany and Poland. With about 400 employees, it is one of the largest privately held superabrasive grinding and tooling manufacturers in the world, a company press release said. Abrasive Technology weathered the tough economy, said Peterman, and now business is booming. “The economy in 2008 and 2009 was horrible for the entire world and our industry (as well). But the reason we’ve done so well is, really, our good people who want to do the right kind of stuff — really good products and a diversified customer base,” said Peterman. “We were able to make it through that difficult time because we had so many different platforms to offer our product to.

This is the band’s third time performing at the event. The Citizen Police Academy Alumni Group will run a coloring booth for children ages 7 and younger and a solve-the-crime table. The crime-solving activity “was a big hit last year,” so they decided to do it again,” Roach said. The city’s parks and recreation department will provide various
sports activities such as cornhole, wiffle ball and other summer activities. “We will also have Liberty Township Fire Department on hand with their smoke house, and several federal agencies — FBI, Secret Service and U.S. marshal — will be on hand to answer questions and hand out information,” Roach said. Twenty-eight years ago, the National Association of Town Watch started the event that promotes police-community partnerships, crime, drug and violence prevention, safety and neighborhood unit, the press release said. Powell has hosted the event since 2008. For more information on National Night Out contact Roach at (614) 885-5005 or sroach@cityofpowell.us.
economy is really swinging up for us.” His greatest challenges in the 40 years was managing the business after buying out his partners in 1992 and moving the business model to a process centered organization (PCO), which was adopted in 2001. The Petermans credit the PCO model for much of the company’s success and employee dedication. They said the standard hierarchal business structure is inefficient and stifles ingenuity.
The PCO structure “allows more flexibility, efficiency and productivity than the vertical structure that most corporations have,” Peterman said. “You end up with lots more new stuff coming out, more opportunities, more of people thinking about ways to challenge and move forward and grow and change what they do.” However, it was not an easy transition for the company, said Daryl Peterman, because everyone was used to having a boss giving instructions. “There are some people that

Learn at the Zoo Summer 2011: • Summer Day Camps: for ages 3-12 • Family Night Hikes
During the tiger training session you will see how our Keepers use the tiger’s favorite food, meatballs, to reward the tiger for a job well done. The tigers are trained to do some of the same things you would train your own pets to do such as standing up, sitting down, rolling over and showing their paws. The tigers are eager to learn and their activities allow the Keeper to see any health problems.
• Family Overnights • Twilight Tours • Guided Walking Tours (Daily) • Behind the Scene Tours (Daily)
If you can’t make it to our Keeper Talk don’t worry because seeing the tigers in their habitat is fun too. Tigers love the water and during the summer can be seen playing in their pools and streams. They also like to hangout in their cave which is air conditioned in the summer and heated in the winter.

And he wants to play the old songs. “Our newest thing, to us, is always the most urgent,” the bassist for the Goo Goo Dolls told The Beat. “We’ve started playing Sweetest Lie (first track on the band’s latest CD, Something for the Rest of Us) during our ‘charge up songs’ to open the set. A lot of times, people don’t know those songs as well, because we also use some early songs in there, too.” Turns out he wants to play all the songs. “When we get to Slide, it’s often the first song people know really well,” he said. “And if you don’t play Black Goo Goo Dolls Balloon or Iris, someone’s going to be upset, and we don’t want that to Goo Goo Dolls, with openers Michelle Branch happen.

Milestone 229: Come for the views, stay for the food The food could have totally been beside the point at Milestone 229. Born lucky in an expensively rehabbed neighborhood loaded with stunning things to gawk at, Milestone could have skated by on its good looks and its eye-candy setting: the people magnet that is the impressive new Scioto Mile development. Speaking of Scioto Mile, on one side of Milestone is a showpiece waterpark where highly stimulated kids run wildly through elaborately alternating spurts of water and adults stare in wonder. At night, the modern, sculptural, halo-like fountains ethereally produce fog, become a thrilling and hypnotic light show and are sometimes the watery screen for filmic projections. On the opposite side of Milestone are the most spectacular vistas of downtown Columbus visible from any eatery. Really, to sit on Milestone’s big, looping one-of-a-kind patio is to realize how sexy our city can be.
MENU by G. A. BENTON Cleverly, this restaurant — which is run by the Columbus Brewing Company folks — is constructed along swooping arcs that echo those halo-form fountains. Elliptical, expansive and roomy, Milestone 229 is a neat-looking, modernist metal-and-glass building. And its patio has clearly upped the ante on scenic outdoor eating in central Ohio. But Milestone is not just another pretty face. Because though its mob-attracting location would’ve ensured a captive audience even if it served awful food, Milestone’s gone the extra … er, mile and hired a real chef (Rigsby’s veteran Christian Hattemer) who’s fashioned an allAmerican, local- and fine-ingredientsourcing menu. While Milestone’s food is hardly daring, it is carefully prepared,

scratch-made stuff that aims for, and consistently hits, the familiar-disheswith-chef’s-flourishes target. The house cocktails ($9) follow a similar trajectory. Made with very good ingredients, none I tried were stinkers, but my favorite has been the perfectly named seasonal cooler called Summer Splash (Watershed gin, muddled cu-
cumber and fresh lime in refreshing harmony). Appetizers are presented with fun and verve. They range from a heavy but pleasing Skillet Mac ‘n Cheese ($7.25, huge, with a lively cheese blend, smoky bacon and toasted panko breadcrumbs served in a black skillet) to the mandatory Calamari (wittily spilling out of a Chinese takeout container) to a mayorich and abundantly red-peppered Pimento Cheese dip ($7.25) to a neat medley called Wine Quartet ($10.50, salty olives, seasoned nuts, a decent beet and orange salad, and the upstaging star of a salmon mousse). There are also handmade, hearty and rustic pizzas on thick, crispy crusts (like a salty and pungent gorgonzola and roasted mushroom, $12.50). Entree salads were solid, too, like the Wild Alaskan Salmon ($13.50), with wasabi peas, a gingery dressing and a thick miso/peanuttype sauce. Entree-wise, I tried a perfectly cooked,

OK steak (Grilled Barrel Cut Sirloin, $22) with a suave hoochy sauce, topnotch green beans plus a nifty multiplepotato hash, and a fresh-tasting and attractively plated Potato Crusted Great Lakes Walleye ($22) with a golden crispy spud shell, asparagus and creamed corn sauce. While both were good, Milestone’s giant sandwiches (all about $10) were equally satisfying, yet a lot cheaper — and they arrive with nice, crisp fries, either vinegar-tinged or of the sweet potato variety. My favorite sandwich was the standout, banh-mi-accented Tempura Battered fish. Also easily gulpable were the Three Little Pigs Porkout and a heavily herbed homemade bratwurst burger. Inevitable ending: Milestone 229 — come for the views, stay for the food.
Independent yogurt shop gives fresh spin to frozen confection Fans of a hot trend, Joey Chong and her family decided to play it cool. Not an easy thing to do in 90degree weather. Devotees of frozen yogurt, they wanted to open a store but were unimpressed with the inflexibility of national chains. So they went out on their own. On Saturday, on yet another sweltering day in central Ohio, they opened Matcha in the restaurant-diverse Bethel Centre. The independent store plays to the desires of the customer, Chong said. “I have been helping my fam-
ily and relatives with their restaurant business for many years and now I get to try a different food,” she said. “It’s dessert. When the idea of opening a frozen-yogurt store came up from the family, I was very excited because I already had frozen yogurt a few times in the East Coast and loved it so much.” Matcha, a type of Japanese green tea, offers 10 flavors a day, from the traditional — vanilla and chocolate — to the more exotic — pomegranate-raspberry, mango and, of course, matcha. The plan is to rotate the flavors

often to see what customers favor, she said. Comment cards will be provided at the store. Matcha is self-serve. Customers are given a 16-ounce cup and can fill it with as many flavors and toppings as they desire. The price is 44 cents an ounce. The real gems, she said, are the toppings, which total more than 40. Again, there are the typical options, such as nuts, granola and M&Ms, plus others that are more likely to be found in a bubble-tea store, including coconut jellies, mochi (ice cream wrapped in a soft, thin Japanese rice cake), sweetened red and green beans and popping boba (tapioca pearls filled with fruit juice). Fruit will always be fresh, never mushy, she promised. “When I travel, I always look for something different or try some local restaurants,” she said. “We will keep searching around for more unique foods and toppings to serve with yogurt.” Matcha is among a new wave of frozen-yogurt purveyors in central Ohio, which includes Orange Leaf, Red Mango, Josie’s and Cuzzins. Dean Small, founder and managing partner Synergy Restaurant Consultants near San Diego,
said the resurgence of frozen yogurt can be attributed to a couple of factors. For starters, it is perceived as a healthier option than ice cream. Also, people tend to migrate toward indulgences in a bad economy. “Comfort food always plays well,” he said. Small likes the build-your-own option being offered by Matcha and other frozen-yogurt places. “You’re putting the onus on them to create their own little masterpiece,” he said. Still, he sees a danger in oversaturation and lack of creativity from some frozen-yogurt vendors. “Some of them just aren’t that innovative,” he said. “I still think that frozen yogurt is very popular,” he added. “I don’t see it going away any time soon.” Matcha seats 20 in 1,500 square feet of space at 1462 Bethel Road. It is open for lunch and dinner hours daily. For more information, call (614) 564-9154. Element Pizza is slated to open Aug. 1.

by Greg VanHorssen GOOD REASON NOT TO TAKE ASPIRIN Those afflicted with the phantom noise in their ears that no one else can hear (“tinnitus”) should know that this problem can be linked to aspirin consumption. Aspirin’s potential effect upon hearing was originally noted when the drug was first synthesized over a century ago. A warning of this potential effect may even have been on the aspirin bottle label. In any case, it is thought that salicylic acid, the active ingredient in aspirin, can damage the cochlea in the inner ear. This potential side effect is more likely to occur at the higher daily doses taken for the treatment of chronic pain. However, occasional aspirin users have also reported tinnitus. The problem may cease when aspirin usage stops. The most common type of tinnitus is subjective tinnitus. Subjective tinnitus includes sounds only you can hear. AT ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS we strongly encourage anyone who is concerned about their hearing to have a comprehensive hearing exam. To schedule an appointment, please call 614-654-4309. We offer both standard and premium digital hearing aids for much less than the competition, plus we offer the best and most detailed hearing tests using problem solving equipment the others don’t have.

Teams preparing for start of practice By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The wait is nearly over for high school football players and coaches. It started with the sometimes monotonous days of weight-room work, which began for many the moment last season ended. The past few weeks have included activities such as team camps and 7on-7 passing tournaments, with a few glimpses of the playbook thrown in. Beginning Monday, Aug. 1, it final-
ly will start to feel like football again. For Grove City coach Matt Jordan, that first day of official coaching allowed by the OHSAA provides an enjoyable opportunity to see his players bond. It also doesn’t hurt that it’s a chance for relationships between some players and coaches to get a fresh start. “You no longer get any excuses from anybody,” Jordan said, laughing. “Seriously, it’s fun to finally get to put the pads on. You’ve been in the weight room since December, so it’s fun watch-
ing everyone run around in helmets. You know it’s football season, and there’s this wonderful excitement in the air. There’s something about that adrenaline that comes.” According to the OHSAA, the dates teams are allowed to scrimmage this year are Aug. 9-20. Although games can be played as early as Aug. 22, most teams start their season Aug. 26 or 27. Many teams in central Ohio won’t have their first scrimmage until Aug. 12, which means they have 11 days to put plays in motion before their first
contact against another team. Putting in drills over the first couple days of practice can be an important exercise in setting the pace for the coming months as well as in preparing for scrimmages. “You try to establish everyday types of drills and try to mix them up,” Jordan said. “We do certain things day one, certain things day two and get a rotation going. You’re always evaluating talent and you definitely want to laterally be going forward to see who looks good.
“In football, you already have a pretty good idea who your guys are Aug. 1, so you’re also looking at team cohesiveness. Do you have some leaders who are ready to step up? You start initially with your base offense and base defense in the early days and then do repeat and review to make sure you haven’t moved too fast. When you get to pads, it all changes.” Teams from the City League sometimes have obstacles, particularly early See FOOTBALL, page C2
Commentary
Respect essential to prep athletes Bad news often takes precedence over good news when it comes to stories about athletes. Most athletes perform well at their jobs and conduct their lives in a respectful way, but poor decisions often lead to headlines. This week, the high school student-athletes LARRY writing in my summer series LARSON discuss how they view two elements of the positive side of sports — sportsmanship and respect. Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “I always try to be as positive as possible and I always remember that I do this sport because I love it and not as if it is my job.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “I view respect and sportsmanship as a bigger part of the game than talent. You don’t have to be a friend with everyone, but it is important to get along with everyone.” Faith Washington, Rey-noldsburg, track: “Respect and good sportsmanship are necessities come game time. Whether it was something in your day that upset you or things just aren’t going the way you want them to, no one likes to feel disrespected. Sometimes it’s going to be about someone else’s day, so smile and congratulate them as they would congratulate you.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “Respect in competition is vital. When you are big enough to respect your opponents, you respect yourself and your teammates that much more.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “Respect and sportsmanship are always very valued traits to have as an athlete. In order to respect the game, you must respect your competitors in that game.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “I will make it real simple — respect all, fear none.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “In high school games, you have to remember that the guys out there on the field from the other team are just like you. Many of us get to be friends

Wedgewood’s Derek Nguyen competes in the boys 13-14 50-meter butterfly during the Country Club Swim League meet July 19.
New Albany High School graduates Alex Alfonso and David Huddle both played big roles in the New Albany Country Club swimming team’s victory in the Country Club Swim League championship on July 19 at home. The team scored 2,850.5 points to finish ahead of Wedgewood (2,369.5), The Lakes (2,011), Scioto (1,968), Kinsale (1,435), Worthington Hills (1,317.5), Tartan Fields (1,777.5), Brookside (1,043), Jefferson (955.5), Muirfield (919), Medallion (765.5) and Columbus (206.5). In their final club meet, Alfonso and Huddle led the way for New Albany. In the boys 15-and-over 50meter freestyle, Alfonso tied Jake Moore of Tartan Fields for
first with a time of 24.75 seconds. Meet officials ruled the race was too close to call and gave both Alfonso and Moore the same time. Alfonso also was second in the 50 butterfly (27.23) and third in the 50 backstroke (29.99), while Huddle was third in the 50 fly (27.39) and sixth in the 50 free (25.98). Corey Ziegler, Frederick Jenny, Huddle and Alfonso finished second in the 200 medley relay (1:55.05) and Huddle, Jenny, Ziegler and Will Gleason were second in the 200 free relay (1:50.42). “The meet was fun as always,” Alfonso said. “It’s our last club meet and I’m glad we did well.” Alfonso and Huddle’s high school coach and assistant at New Albany Country Club, Dave Wharton, was pleased with how See SWIM, page C2
Top Individual Performances: No. 3
Avery’s heroics led Newark to state title By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Greg Avery of the Newark High School boys basketball team couldn’t have been more excited for the spotlight of the Division I state championship game March 15, 2008, against Lakewood St. Edward. Even now, though, he cringes at how his game started — with a pair of what he considered bad shots, the first of which resulted in a missed layup. But little else went wrong that night for See LARSON, page C2 Avery.
TILE & GROUT CLEANING
The 6-foot-3 senior tied his career high of 33 points on 14 of 18 shooting and added 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals to lead the Wildcats to a 65-52 victory and their first state championship since 1943 before a crowd of 12,465 at Ohio State’s Value City Arena. “My first two shots were two of the dumbest shots,” Avery said. “I wanted to get rolling, and after that I was just in the zone.” Avery made seven consecutive shots after missing his first attempt, including back-to-back baskets to open the second
quarter. He hit a jumper nine seconds into the period to make it 21-14 and made his only 3-point attempt with 6 minutes, 57 seconds remaining in the quarter to give the Wildcats a 24-14 lead. After Newark took a 14-point lead midway through the second period, St. Edward rallied to within six before Avery hit a jumper with 7 seconds left in the first half to make it 33-25. “I really noticed (how well he was playing) the next week watching the game and seeing some of the shots he made,” Newark coach Jeff Quackenbush
said. “We ran a play for him at the end of the (first) half and he made this fadeaway (jumper) from about 17 feet. You know he’s scoring and doing well, but I guess he was just in that zone and we felt really good about the shots he was taking. “He had a huge steal at the end of the third quarter and just played well the entire game. His whole game, just everything he did, he really competed well that night.”

By Adam Cairns/ThisWeek
Greg Avery (5) of Newark begins to celebrate in the final seconds of the Wildcats’ 65-52 victory over Lakewood St. Edward in the Division I state championship game on March 15, 2008. Avery dominated the game, scoring 33 points and adding 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals to lead Newark.
AVERY Continued from page C1 The other starters for the Wildcats — post player Dane Kopp, forward Will McCoy and guards Cody Dennison and Rahlin Watson — each played contributing roles in what became Newark’s fourth state championship. Although McCoy scored just four points, he was one of the primary reasons St. Edward’s Tom Pritchard — an Indiana University recruit — was held to nine points on 3-for-7 shooting. The Wildcats never led by fewer than five points in the second half and stretched the lead to as many as 16 in the final period. Watson, who plays for Capital University, scored 10 points. Dennison scored eight and Kopp added seven as the Wildcats finished with a 24-4 record. Avery said the Wildcats’ defense made it difficult for St. Edward to take good shots. Dennison, who played two seasons for Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and will play for Tiffin University this season, remembers talking with Avery when both were in elementary school about one day making it to the state tournament. “He pretty much did everything for us that night,� Dennison said. “We’d had the mindset to be in that situation since we were in fifth grade, and in my junior year and Greg’s senior year, we finally reached that goal. “I personally tried to give him the ball all the time, and everybody fed off of him. We were all clicking. Everything he was shooting was going in.� It was a fitting end to a prep career in which Avery scored 1,131 points. He made thirdteam all-state and first-team alldistrict his senior season as he averaged 18.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists. Avery became the sixth player in program history to score more than 1,000 career points. “I remember driving home and the fans were waiting for us when we got back to our gym,� Avery said. “We had a ceremony and had a day named after us, ‘Newark State Championship Day.’ There was a lot of support from Newark.� Shortly after the state championship, Avery signed to play collegiately for Western Caroli-

Counting down to No. 1 ThisWeek Community Newspapers has been around for 22 years. That timeframe was used as the basis to compile a top-10 list of the top individual performances we’ve covered. Along with the experienced sports staff at ThisWeek and Steve Blackledge, high school reporter at The Columbus Dispatch, we arrived at a top-10 list. Below are Nos. 4-10. Check back next week for No. 2 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com.
NOS. 4-10: 10. MAURICE HALL, Brookhaven football (Oct. 27, 2000) — During a season in which he rushed for 3,057 yards to rank fifth on Ohio’s all-time list, Hall’s most memorable individual performance came during the final week of the regular season. The Bearcats beat Briggs 75-16 as Hall rushed for 411 yards and eight touchdowns on 19 carries. 9. LATOYA TURNER, Pickerington girls basketball (March 19, 1999) — The 6-foot-4 senior helped the Tigers advance to the Division I state final with her 29-point performance in a 51-35 win over Wadsworth. The Ohio State recruit made 12 of 14 shots from the floor and was 5-for-6 from the free-throw line while adding five rebounds, four steals and two assists. 8. DARCY FISHBACK, Upper Arlington girls swimming (Feb. 27-28, 2009) — During preliminaries Feb. 27, Fishback broke the state record in the 100-yard butterfly when she finished in 53.38 seconds. She won her fourth state title in the event the next day in 54.17 seconds. Fishback also swam on two state-record relays: the 200 medley (1:43.59) and the 200 freestyle (1:34.24). 7. CHARLES JOHNSON, Watkins Memorial boys basketball (Feb. 24, 1995) — There have been few more
na. He averaged 6.6 points and 3.9 rebounds in 30 games, including four starts, during the 2008-09 season. After the season, he decided to transfer to the University of Findlay, a Division II school, because of the coming birth of his daughter. During the 200910 season for the Oilers, Avery averaged 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in 27 games, including five starts. Despite having what he deemed a successful transition early on to Findlay’s program, longtime coach Ron Niekamp, who retired earlier this year after 26 seasons, told Avery after the season that he “didn’t really fit the system,� Avery said. In search of a place to play, Avery was considering Valdosta State, a Division II school in Valdosta, Ga., when on July 26, 2010, he and two other men were accused of assaulting a man in Myrtle Beach, S.C. “They tried to hit me with a felony, but I didn’t do anything,�
surprising performances than what this 5-8 senior guard accomplished in leading the Warriors to a 93-87 overtime upset of second-seeded and state-ranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament. Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 entering the matchup but got 57 points from Johnson, who made 19 of 34 from floor, including eight 3-pointers, and was 11-for-15 from the freethrow line. He added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists. 6. KHALILAH CARPENTER, Brookhaven girls track and field (June 23, 2000) — At the 2000 Division I state meet, the junior broke the meet and state records in the 100 meters with a time of 11.59 seconds on June 2. The next day, she won the 100 in 11.71 and the 200 title in 23.69, a time that lowered the state mark she already held. 5. JEFF BACKES, Upper Arlington football (Dec. 2, 2000) — In leading the Golden Bears to the Division I state title, the 5-9, 180-pound senior turned in a performance worthy of the Ohio Mr. Football award that he had received days earlier. Backes rushed for 183 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carries and preserved a 159 victory over Solon at Fawcett Stadium in Canton with an interception with less than a minute remaining. 4. COURTNEY SMITH, Hilliard Davidson softball (May 17 and 19, 2006) — Smith brought to a close what remains the longest OHSAA softball tournament game, hitting a grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd inning for a 4-1 victory over Olentangy Liberty and a Division I district championship for the Wildcats. It was Smith’s first career home run. She also stood out in the circle, striking out 29 while pitching a complete game. She didn’t allow a run until the top of the 22nd.
Avery said. “It set me back two more steps.� Avery now is a student at the Newark branch of Ohio State and working for Dennison’s father, Joe, but is hoping to play competitive basketball again soon. He is considering playing on the Division III or NAIA level, or could join a semi-pro team. Regardless of some of the ups and downs that have occurred for Avery the past three-plus years, he knows the memory of what he helped accomplish with his high school team lives on. “It’s still unbelievable,� Avery said. “I still talk to guys who played on that team regularly, and for that game I think we all just did everything to get us that ring. We didn’t let distractions get in our way. I felt like when I was starting to get hot that we were going to win the game.� julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

on, because many of the players who come out for football as freshmen are competing in the sport on a team for the first time. For those taking over a program for the first time such as Brookhaven’s Trevor White, that factor as well as figuring out how to install a new system can make for some complicated moments of preparation even before the first day of official coaching. “Especially with a new program, a big thing early on is setting the tone,� White said. “You want to be getting everybody on the same page, and what we’ve been debating is how much of the offense and defense do we put in. Do we just throw it at them or do we take it step by step? “We’ll have some kids that played (youth) football but some who have never played the sport before. You’ve always got to walk a line of bringing kids along but not holding the veterans back, and especially with a new program, it’s important that you’re really getting to know the team. I’m really excited to learn who my team is.� One of the key aspects of the first days of official coaching, according to Olentangy Liber-

At a glance Below is a look at the Liberty, Olentangy and Orange football teams entering Monday, Aug. 1’s first day of official coaching: LIBERTY •Coach: Steve Hale, ninth season •2010 record: 6-4 overall, 4-3 (tied for third) in OCC-Cardinal •Last playoff appearance: 2009, lost in Division I first round •Opener: Aug. 26 at Dublin Coffman •Top expected returnees: Austin Bull (LB), Brian Johnson (OL), A.J. Motika (WR), Phil Osolinski (RB) and Myles Robinson (DB) •Preseason outlook: Including the talents of Motika and an experienced offensive line, the Patriots shouldn’t struggle offensively. Liberty also has a strong end to last year’s regular season to build on as it looks to make the postseason for the seventh time in eight seasons. OLENTANGY •Coach: Ed Terwilliger, 23rd season •2010 record: 6-4 overall, 4-3 (tied for third) in OCC-Cardinal •Last playoff appearance: 2008, lost in Division II first round •Opener: Aug. 26 vs. Orange •Top expected returnees: Will Brett
(WR/DB), Kenton Playko (OL/DL), Joshua Perry (RB/LB), Derrick Rodgers (RB) and Bryan Young (LB) •Preseason outlook: The Braves doubled their win total from 2009 a year ago, and a strong senior class could have the team poised to take another step forward. Perry (Ohio State) and Playko (Northwestern) give Olentangy a pair of Division I college recruits to lean on. ORANGE •Coach: Brian Cross, fourth season •2010 record: 6-4 overall, 5-2 (tied for second) in OCC-Capital •Last playoff appearance: 2009, lost in Division II regional semifinal •Opener: Aug. 26 at Olentangy •Top expected returnees: Deyshon Hill (DB), Doug Ganim (DL), Bill McCague (OL), Jonathan Peddicord (RB/LB) and Brandon Schoen (RB) •Preseason outlook: After finishing last season on a four-game winning streak and with most of their offensive line returning, the Pioneers appear to be a step ahead of where they were a year ago heading into the season.

ty coach Steve Hale, is getting players’ technical reactions back on track. “You’re working a lot on technique, stance and starts, quickness and a lot of ball skills,� Hale said. “What responsibilities do I have? There are a lot of drills where we try to put kids in situations where they can learn. I think it’s just a matter of being
organized and knowing what schemes we have. “Obviously everybody gets a brand new start. There’s an excitement and an anticipation that you’ll have a great season. That first time on the practice field is like being reborn each year.�
St. John, who won a national championship in synchronized swimming in June, agreed. “We support each other even when we’re not at a meet,� she said. “If one of us is feeling down about anything, someone is always there to pick us up.� Gabby Veri of Scioto finished
