DEATHS

The youngest audience members of a Sidney City Schools security meeting Thursday night were decked out in their Yellow Jacket colors, giggling occasionally, oblivious to the harsh reality of the discussion going on around them. The topic was how to keep city students safe from attackers. The Sidney City Schools (SCS) Security Committee members — including Superintendent John Scheu, Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart, Sidney Police Chief Kevin Gessler and Board of Education President Melanie Cook - shared ideas on how to ensure school security. Members of the public and teachers also shared their opinions, all sharing a passion about protecting children. As the meeting began, Scheu said the See SCHOOL/Page 9A

PIQUA — For many years Bob Comstock sold cars during the week and on weekends he pursued his passion for music by playing in area rock bands. The combination brought Comstock enjoyment and a means of supporting his family. That all changed one August day last year when Comstock, 57, of Piqua, suffered a diabetes-related stroke that affected his speech and mobility. A determined Comstock is making progress on the long and costly road to recovery. That’s where some friends come in as they have organized a benefit concert to aid the Comstock family in paying the medical bills they have incurred following the August stroke and another stroke he has suffered in September. An MRI revealed that he had suffered “mini” strokes prior to the first major stroke in August. See BENEFIT/Page 3A

Toyota settlement may Gov’t delays fracking rule signal future strategy LOS ANGELES (AP) — As Toyota Motor Corp. chips away at settling lawsuits claiming its vehicles suddenly accelerate, the question remains whether attorneys who sued could prove to a jury there was a design flaw. The company maintains stuck accelerator pedals, faulty floor mats and driver error are the reasons for vehicles unexpectedly surging, while plaintiffs’ attorneys contend Toyota’s electronic throttle control system is to blame. Recent settlements totaling more than $1 billion by Toyota to resolve numerous lawsuits involving economic loss and a few involving wrongful death claims may signal that the automaker doesn’t want to risk coming out on the losing end of a potentially costly court decision. “A bad loss in a jury trial would inflict lasting damage to Toyota in loss of public confidence,” said Los Angeles-based attorney Christine Spagnoli, who has won several multimillion-dollar ver-

dicts against automakers over safety defects. “I believe Toyota will continue to look for better opportunities to get a win.” The company said Thursday it settled a lawsuit with the family of two people killed in a Utah crash that was set to go to trial next month and serve as a test case for hundreds of others that are pending. Terms of the agreement weren’t released, but it comes just weeks after Toyota agreed to pay more than $1 billion to settle lawsuits where vehicle owners said the value of their cars and SUVs plummeted after the company recalled millions of vehicles because of sudden-acceleration issues. In the Utah case, Paul Van Alfen and his son’s fiancee, Charlene Jones Lloyd, were killed when their Camry slammed into a wall near Wendover, Utah. in 2010. The Utah Highway Patrol concluded based on statements from witnesses and the crash survivors that the gas pedal was stuck. It was the first socalled “bellwether” case, before a federal judge in

The music will be provided by Jason Rhoads, HigThe gins-Madewell, Drive and a special reunion of Penny and the Loafers. There also will be 50-50 drawings and raffles. Food and beverages will be available at the event. A donation of $10 per person will be accepted at the door. Proceeds from the event will help Comstock with medical expenses associated with the strokes. A veteran rock musician, Comstock was lead vocalist and guitarist for The Drive when stricken by the strokes. He’s also performed with Penny and the Loafers, The Music Box and Foxfire. Over the years, Comstock has performed for thousands of people at

festivals, benefits and other events around the area. “It’s a celebration of his career,” said Scott Ridenour, a bandmate of Comstock’s from The Drive. Ridenour said Comstock was well known for his vocals, singing particularly songs that Steve Perry and Journey performed. His day job for nearly 30 years was selling cars for Ary’s Auto Sales in Piqua. Comstock worked for Mo and Becky Ary in the car business and they are working with Ridenour in organizing the benefit concert. Comstock suffered the first major stroke in August while working at Ary’s. “I just fell to the ground,” Comstock recalled. A customer called 9-1-1, but he refused to go in the ambulance. Comstock insisted that his daughter, Jessica Smith of Piqua, drive him to Wilson Memorial Hospital in Sidney. He said he wanted to go to

Orange County, Calif., chosen to help predict the potential outcome of other lawsuits making similar allegations. Wayne Mason, a product liability attorney in Dallas, doesn’t believe Thursday’s settlement portends poorly for either side going forward. “This is like taking an aspirin when you have a migraine,” Mason said. “Each of these cases has to be weighed on their own merit. I will be surprised if some don’t get tried.” Toyota continues to be dogged by sudden-acceleration issues that arose four years ago. Last month the U.S. government hit the company with a record $17.4 million fine for failing again to quickly report problems to federal regulators and for delaying a safety recall. More than 150,000 2010 Lexus Rx 350s and RX 450h models were recalled because the driver’s-side floor mats can trap the gas pedal and cause the vehicles to speed up without warning. Toyota has recalled more than 14 million vehicles globally to fix sticky gas pedals and floor mats.

Wilson Memorial because that was the hospital he was familiar with, having lived in Sidney as a child before moving to Columbus while in high school. He later returned to Sidney as an adult before moving to Piqua to be closer to work. In addition to Jessica, Comstock has three other children, Tiffany Tackett, Allison Comstock and Robbie Comstock. Comstock suffered a partial loss of sight in one eye and has limited mobility. He uses a walker to get around, although Comstock said he’s trying to switch to a cane. Working with speech and physical therapists, Comstock has made progress in recent months. “It’s a slow process,” he said. “I’m having to teach myself all over again,” explaining that it has been a struggle, not only to regain his mobility, but also to retrain his brain to speak again. During an interview earlier this week, Ridenour and Ary both remarked that they have been surprised and encouraged by the progress a determined Comstock has made. Ary said customers have been asking about Comstock. “They all want to know how he’s doing,” Ary said. “I tell them he’s soldiering on.” Comstock’s goals for recovery are clear — to get back to work at Ary’s and resume playing rock music like he has since he was a teenager. “I liked selling cars and singing, too,” Comstock said. “Between the two, I made decent money.” “Eventually, I hope it all comes back to me, singing and playing a guitar,” he said. After performing at a number of benefits for others over the years, Comstock’s friends said the upcoming concert will be an opportunity for people who enjoyed his music over the years to join in a celebration of his career and help ease his medical expenses.

On Friday, the department pushed the deadline back again, announcing plans for a second draft version by the end of March, with publication of a final rule not expected until

late 2013. Interior Department spokesman Blake Androff said the administration is committed to responsible expansion of domestic oil and gas production, but said it is important that the public have confidence that proper environmental protections are in place.

FAIR $9 admission fee to the fair. Fair Board Secretary Jerry Schaffner discussed his recent attendance of the Ohio Fair Managers Convention. Schaffner mentioned a presentation made by Allen County Fair Manager David Grimm in which he noted a successful fair has three pillars: run it like a business, budget for reserves and budget for reserves over expenses. Schaffner noted the board was already taking these steps. Schaffner and Treasurer Barb Heilers expressed to the board the of the importance DUNF forms. Exhibitors are required to fill out the DUNF (Drug Use Notification Form). Heilers noted this was an area of emphasis for the state. The floor was then opened for discussion, with the main focus being an efficient way to ensure all exhibitors have filed the DUNF. It was suggested the best way was during the mandatory weigh-in of animals. If an exhibitor did not have the form, they would not be able to weigh their animals and qualify to show. Schaffner presented December expenses totaling $7,100. He notified the board that a number of trees on the fairgrounds are in bad shape and need grooming. They had received one estimate of $5,000 to trim out dead wood and remove one tree. The rate was calculated at $1,000 per hour. There was some concern as to why the price was so high. Schaffner and Board President Tim Everett noted the major problem was completing the task safely, as the trees were located along the perimeter of the fair property. Their current condition was creating a threat to private prop-

Anthony Flaharty; a grandd a u g h t e r, J o r d a n Kissinger; and a sister, Betty Copeland. A funeral service will be conducted at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Jamieson & Yannucci Funeral Home with the Rev. Jon Richmond officiating. Burial will follow at Maple Hill Cemetery, Tipp City. Visitation will be from noon to 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at the funeral home. Memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society, 2808 Reading Road, Cincinnati, OH 45206.

T. Graham Brown erty located near the grounds. It was decided that more discussion was needed and the issue was tabled. The board approved $600 to redesign its website. Schaffner and Everett encouraged board members to reach out for sponsorships. Everett noted sponsorships are likely to decrease from last year by as much as $15,000. There was discussion over what to do about the cleaning of restrooms and removal of trash during the fair. It was noted that Bobcat Moldy Works had been notified about concerns from last year’s fair. After some discussion the board approved a $6,000 contract for restroom and trash removal, but $1,000 would be performance based. A Family Day at the fair was approved and scheduled for Monday. The admission fee of $9 will be reduced to $5 before 3 p.m. A demolition derby was approved for another year, although there was some concern that participation numbers were down. It was noted the event still generated $5,000 in revenue, despite the decline in entries. Therefore the board felt it was prudent to continue the derby until it is no longer profitable. Heilers informed the board the 2013 budget totals $400,000. This number was approved by the board. She also informed them the fair had a surplus of $37,632, of which $25,000 was placed in reserve.

Father rebuilds truck into memorial BY REBECCA CONKLIN KLEIBOEMER Associated Press TOLEDO (AP) — Tom Wylie spent the last three months tearing apart and rebuilding a dump truck in his mechanic shop, but he really was retooling his broken heart. The owner of Wylie & Sons Landscaping in Perrysburg Township turned the vehicle into a rolling memorial to his 23-year-old son, Tommy Wylie, Jr., who was killed June 23 in a vehicular crash in Henry County. “It helped me get through a lot of the suffering,” Mr. Wylie said. Tommy, who worked with his father at the truck repair and sand and stone-hauling business, ran his steel-hauling business, WJR, from

Judge ends most oversight of youth prisons BY ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — A federal judge on Friday ended most of his court-ordered monitoring of Ohio’s youth prison system while ruling that oversight of mental health services and units for students with behavioral issues must continue. The decision by Judge Algenon Marbley brings to an end the ongoing court review of numerous issues such as general education, use of force and dental services. It also means many of the problems identified first in a 2004 lawsuit and later in a 2008 court settlement have been addressed successfully. The ruling is a measure of how much progress has been made over the years, said Alphonse Gerhardstein, a Cincinnati lawyer representing juvenile inmates. “The overriding message is that a lot has

gone right and we’ll finish the work up in a cooperative fashion and the kids will be wellserved,” Gerhardstein said. Helping the juvenile inmates change their lives is the agency’s most important work as it builds a safer Ohio, said Harvey Reed, director of the Department of Youth Services. “That’s why we’ve worked hard to reform juvenile justice in Ohio to serve the right youth in the right place with the right treatment,” he said in a statement. The system has changed dramatically since the 2004 lawsuit that alleged a culture of violence permeated the state’s detention system for juvenile inmates. The Department of Youth Services has shrunk to four facilities, and its population dropped from more than 2,000 to about 600 today. Most youth convicted in the state’s juvenile justice system now serve their time in local centers close to

family and community support networks. Those changes have also brought an ongoing challenge for the state: Most of the remaining inmates under state control are older, have been convicted of more serious and violent crimes, and can be harder to rehabilitate. Marbley’s ruling said the state will continue quality assurance monitoring of several areas, including safe living conditions, medical services, special education and investigations of incidents in the juvenile detention centers. Those quality assurance checks are a step down from court-ordered monitoring.

Kasich to deliver State of the State in Lima BY JULIE CARR SMYTH Associated Press COLUMBUS (AP) — For the second year in a row, Gov. John Kasich is making plans to deliver his State of the State speech outside the capital city, a practice he says exposes more Ohioans to their government but which critics say sets a bad precedent. Assuming state lawmakers agree, this year’s venue will be Lima, a rebounding Rust Belt city of 38,000 that sits equidistant between Toledo and Dayton in northwest Ohio. Kasich would give the speech on Feb. 19 at Veterans Memorial Civic Center. In another departure from tradition, Kasich hopes to deliver the speech in the evening this year, rather than the usual noontime start. In 2012, Kasich became the first governor in modern memory to

take the year’s big policy speech outside the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus. The first-term Republican chose Steubenville for the occasion, using the award-winning Wells Academy, named the best school in the state, to tout education successes and the benefits of the region’s burgeoning shale gas industry. Justices were unable to attend last year’s speech because court was in session the day it was delivered, and some statewide officials and legislators couldn’t or chose not to attend. Choosing Lima this year gives Kasich a chance to highlight economic successes he has touted on both the state and national stages. Unemployment in Allen County has fallen since he took office, moving from 10.8 percent to 6.7 percent. The selection of Lima, the county seat, was first reported by The Lima News.

crash remains under investigation, but Mr. Wylie said he needed to do something to cope with the pain. Tommy was an avid dirt-bike racer, and fellow racer Jeffrey Clark of Bad Brush Design in the village of Holland had made memorial decals with Tommy’s 513 bike number. “When our community loses someone … it seems to help in those situations,” Mr. Clark said. The sticker inspired Mr. Wylie to repaint the 1999 Mack, the first truck he ever bought, in the same bright purple as his son’s Kawasaki racing color, with the Bad Brush graphic enlarged onto the cab doors. Closest match for the truck paint: Crazy Plum Purple. Mr. Wylie didn’t flinch when told it cost $500 a gallon. “Well, I need a gallon and a half,” he said.

He didn’t stop at the truck’s exterior. Mr. Wylie stripped it down and then rebuilt it. Todd Hanson of Hanson Graphics in Wauseon hand-painted “Tommy Lives” with green stripes on the hood. Mr. Wylie clearcoated several pictures of his son on the cab and trailer, practicing first on the shop’s washing machine. Kristen Kowalski of Delta, a bookkeeper for Wylie & Sons who was Tommy’s girlfriend, is in several of those pictures. “I think he would love it,” she said. Mr. Wylie’s eldest son, Josh, works at the business, and his youngest son, Nick, is pursuing a horse-racing career. And although Mr. Wylie is separated from his wife, Lisa, she’s going to be behind the wheel of her son’s memorial truck when it hauls again, he said.

The dump truck carries the names of businesses where Tommy had worked, including Shrader Tire & Oil of Toledo and the Flag City Mack dealer in Findlay. “It’s pretty nice of them to put our name on something that’s so special to them,” said Chris Herman of Columbus Grove, parts manager at Flag City Truck and Equipment. Mr. Wylie said he spent 10 to 15 hours a day on the project, which helped keep him busy. But his grief persists. “I was crying so hard on Christmas Eve, I didn’t think I’d get through it,” Mr. Wylie said. He completed the dump truck by his goal of Christmas as a present to Tommy. “When God gives him his window to peek down and see what’s going on, he can see it going down the road,” Mr. Wylie said.

OUT OF THE BLUE

Taking a break in the break-in SAN ANDREAS, Calif. (AP) — Authorities in Northern California say a man arrested in nothing but a trench coat and socks after a break-in told investigators he had been using the homeowner’s sauna. Calaveras County sheriff's deputies arrested 49year-old Robert London this week after they responded to a report of a burglary at a home in San Andreas. He pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges of burglary and possession of stolen property. Sheriff’s Sgt. Chris Hewitt says arriving deputies found the homeowner on top of a nearly naked London on the driveway. The homeowner said he discovered London going through his kitchen cabinets and chased him out the door. Hewitt says London told investigators he thought the house was vacant, and he had used the sauna there in the past.

Ex-mayor charged with bribery BY MICHAEL KUNZELMAN Associated Press NEW ORLEANS (AP) — More than a decade ago, Ray Nagin was elected mayor of New Orleans on a vow to root out corruption in a city plagued by decades of it. On Friday, the former mayor Nagin was indicted on charges he lined his pockets with bribe money, payoffs and gratuities while the chronically poor city struggled to recover from Hurricane Katrina’s punishing blow. The federal indictment alleges that city contractors paid Nagin more than $200,000 in bribes and subsidized his trips to Hawaii, Jamaica and other places in exchange for his help securing millions of dollars in work for

the city. The charges against Nagin are the product of a City Hall corruption investigation that already has resulted in guilty pleas by two former city officials and two businessmen and a prison sentence for a former city vendor. The case also punctuates the reversal of political and personal fortune for Nagin, who had what New Orleans Magazine editor Errol Laborde called “rock star status” soon after his election in 2002. Nagin, a former cable television executive, took office with an image as a largely apolitical businessman ready to root out corruption. “The media bought into that 100 percent. They used the term ‘crackdown on corruption,’” Laborde said Friday. But Nagin’s popularity and support waned in the years after Katrina. The federal investigation of his administration was mushrooming by the time he left office in 2010.

Rafael Goyeneche, head of the nonprofit watchdog agency the Metropolitan Crime Commission, remembers Nagin entering office with a call for the public to let authorities know about corruption. “To go from the mandate that he was elected with to reading this indictment today and finding out that he was in many respects, if these allegations are true, a complete fraud, is eye-opening,” Goyeneche said Friday. In inauguration remarks May 6, 2002, Nagin promised a City Hall “where permits and licenses are provided quickly, predictably and honestly; where contracts are awarded based on what you can do, not who you know.” Soon afterward, his administration’s probe into alleged corruption in taxi cab regulation resulted in numerous arrests. “We’re basically trying to send the signal … that what has happened in the past, and the way people played in the

gray areas, is no longer acceptable,” Nagin said at the time. “We need to get in step with what’s done in the rest of the country.” Friday’s indictment accuses Nagin of accepting more than $160,000 in bribes and truckloads of free granite for his family business in exchange for promoting the interests of a local businessman who secured millions of dollars in city contract work after the 2005 hurricane. The businessman, Frank Fradella, pleaded guilty in June to conspiracy to commit bribery and has been cooperating with federal authorities. Nagin, 56, also is charged with accepting at least $60,000 in payoffs from another businessman, Rodney Williams, for his help in securing city contracts for architectural, engineering and management services work. Williams, who was president of Three Fold Consultants LLC, pleaded guilty Dec. 5 to a conspiracy charge.

Algerian army takes hard line in battle BY PAUL SCHEMM Associated Press ALGIERS, Algeria (AP) — The militants had filled five jeeps with hostages and begun to move when Algerian government attack helicopters opened up on them, leaving four in smoking ruins. The fifth vehicle crashed, allowing an Irish hostage inside to clamber out to safety with an explosive belt still strapped around his neck. Three days into the crisis at a natural gas plant deep in the Sahara, it remained unclear how many had perished in the faceoff between Africa’s most uncompromising militant group and the region’s most ruthless military. By Friday, around 100 of the 135 foreign workers on the site had been freed and 18 of an estimated 30 kidnappers had been slain, according to the Algerian government, still leaving a major hostage situation centered on the plant’s main refinery. The government said 12 workers, both foreign and Algerian, were confirmed dead.

But the extremists have put the number at 35. And the government attack Thursday on the convoy — as pieced together from official, witness and news media accounts — suggested the death toll could go higher. In Washington, U.S. officials said one American — a Texan — was known to have died. Meanwhile, the al-Qaidalinked Masked Brigade behind the operation offered to trade two American hostages for two terrorists behind bars in the U.S., including the mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. The U.S. rejected the deal out of hand. “The United States does not negotiate with terrorists,” declared State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland. The Algerian government released few details about the continuing siege at the Ain Amenas plant, which is jointly run by BP (TSX:BP’U) , Norway’s Statoil and Algeria’s state-owned oil company. By Friday, however, the outlines

of the takeover by Islamic militants were coming into focus. The attack had been in the works for two months, a member of the Masked Brigade told an online Mauritanian news outlet that often carries al-Qaida-related announcements. The band of attackers included militants from Algeria, Mali, Egypt, Niger, Mauritania and Canada, he said. He said militants targeted Algeria because they expected the country to support the international effort to root out extremists in neighboring Mali. Instead of passing through Algeria’s relatively well-patrolled deserts, the attackers came in from southern Libya, where there is little central government and smugglers have long reigned supreme, according to Algeria’s Interior Minister Daho Ould Kabila. He said the attackers consisted of about 30 men armed with rocket launchers and machine guns and under the direct supervision of the Masked Brigade’s founder himself, Moktar Belmoktar, a hardened, one-eyed Algerian militant who has battled the

GOP eyes new election laws to make it easier to win BY STEVE PEOPLES Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — After back-to-back presidential losses, Republicans in key states want to change the rules to make it easier for them to win. From Wisconsin to Pennsylvania, GOP officials who control legislatures in states that supported President Barack Obama are considering changing state laws that give the winner of a state’s popular vote all of its Electoral College votes, too. Instead, these officials want Electoral College votes to be divided proportionally, a move that could transform the way the country elects its president. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus endorsed the idea this week, and other Republican leaders support it, too, suggesting that the effort may be gaining momentum. There are other signs that Republican state legislators, governors and veteran political strategists are seriously considering making the shift as the GOP looks to rebound from presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s Electoral College shellacking and the demographic changes that threaten the party’s long-term political prospects. “It’s something that a lot of states that have been consistently blue that are fully controlled red ought to be looking at,” Priebus told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, emphasizing that each state must decide for itself. Democrats are outraged at the potential change.

Obama won the popular vote with 65.9 million votes, or 51.1 percent, to Romney’s 60.9 million, or 47.2 percent, and won the Electoral College by a wide margin, 332-206 electoral votes. It’s unclear whether he would have been re-elected under the new system, depending upon how many states adopted the change. While some Republican officials warn of a political backlash, GOP lawmakers in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania are already lining up behind proposals that would allocate electoral votes by congressional district or something similar. Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he “could go either way” on the change and doesn’t plan to push it. But he said it’s a reasonable issue to debate and that he prefers that leaders discuss it well before the next presidential election. “It could be done in a thoughtful (way) over the next couple years and people can have a thoughtful discussion,” Snyder said. Republican leaders in the Michigan Statehouse have yet to decide whether to embrace the change there. But state Rep. Peter Lund, a Republican who introduced a bill to change the allocation system two years ago, said some Republicans might be more receptive to his bill this year following the election. “We never really pushed it before,” he said, adding that the bill wasn’t designed to help one party more than the other. Democrats aren’t con-

vinced. And they warned of political consequences for Republicans who back the shift — particularly those governors up for re-election in 2014, who include the governors of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, among others. “This is nothing more than election-rigging,” said Michigan Democratic Chairman Mark Brewer. Each state has the authority to shape its own election law. And in at least seven states — Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida and North Carolina — Republicans control both chambers of the state legislature and the governor’s office. Already, Maine and Nebraska have moved away from a winner-take-all system to one that allocates electoral votes based on congressional district. “This is a concept that’s got a lot of possibility and a lot of potential,” said Washingtonbased Republican strategist Phil Musser, acknowledging that the debate would “incite different levels of partisan acrimony.” Musser also predicted that more pressing economic issues would likely take priority in most Republican-led statehouses. In Pennsylvania, Senate Republican leader Dominic Pileggi this week renewed his call for the Republican-controlled Legislature to revamp the way it awards electoral votes by using a method based on the popular vote that would have given Romney eight of the state’s 20 votes. Democrats quickly criticized it as partisan scheme.

Algerian government for years and has built a Saharan smuggling and kidnapping empire linked to al-Qaida. Early Wednesday morning, they crept across the border, 60 miles (100 kilometers) from the natural gas plant, and fell on a pair of buses taking foreign workers to the airport. The buses’ military escort drove off the attackers in a blaze of gunfire that sent bullets zinging over the heads of the crouching workers. A Briton and an Algerian, probably a security guard, were killed. Frustrated, the militants turned to the vast gas complex, divided between the workers’ living quarters and the refinery itself, and seized hostages, the Algerian government said. Several of the former hostages, who arrived haggard-looking on a late-night flight into Algiers on Friday, said that the gunfire began around 5 a.m. and that the militants who stormed the living quarters almost immediately separated out the foreigners.

House to vote on debt ceiling increase BY ANDREW TAYLOR Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republican leaders Friday offered President Barack Obama a three-month reprieve to a looming, marketrattling debt crisis, backing off demands that any immediate extension of the government’s borrowing authority be accompanied by stiff spending cuts. The retreat came with a caveat aimed at prodding Senate Democrats to pass a budget after almost four years of failing to do so: a threat to cut off the pay of lawmakers in either House or Senate if their chamber fails to pass a budget this year. House Republicans have passed budgets for two consecutive years. The idea got a frosty reception from House Democrats but a more measured response from the White House and Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada. Republicans hadn’t settled on full details, but the measure would give the government about three more months of borrowing authority beyond a deadline expected to hit as early as mid-February, No. 2 House Republican Eric Cantor of Virginia said Friday. The legislation wouldn’t require immediate spending cuts as earlier promised by GOP leaders like Speaker John Boehner of Ohio. Instead, it’s aimed at forcing the Democratic-controlled Senate to join the House in debating the federal budget.

Actress launches beauty brand NEW YORK (AP) — Drew Barrymore, an accomplished actress, producer and director, is her own launching beauty brand. Maybe, she says, it’s the next chapter now that she’s married art consultant Will Koppelman and they have a 4-month-old daughter, Olive. She’s not just starring in the ad campaign or splashing her name on the box. Barrymore says she is growing Flower, which will be sold exclusively at Walmart stores,

from the ground up. (Products are being added all month, and Flower will be fully launched by the end of January.) “I think it could last, and my daughter could work on it someday,” the 37-year-old Barrymore says. “I think I’ve earned the right to do it, after so many years working with Cover Girl, and I’ve been in a makeup chair since I was 6.” This was hardly a whim. While development and production

have moved quickly, taking about 18 months to sign the deals with WalMart Stores Inc. and manufacturer Maesa to launch with 181 products, it’s been on her mind all day, every day. On the day of this interview, she had posted a Facebook update tallying up the hundreds of meetings, the thousands of miles flown — including to Walmart headquarters in Arkansas — and what feels like millions of questions, requests and comments.

Former neighbors of Piqua teen Cody Young have organized a benefit in Sidney to support the young man who has been in a coma since he was inYoung volved in an accident in November. Neil Harrod and Kathy Elliott, both of Sidney, have spearheaded an event that will be at the Eagles hall, 433 E. Court St., Jan. 26 from 6 p.m. to midnight. The band, Common Ground, will perform. There will be dinner, raffles, a 50/50 drawing and an auction. “Cody grew up on Lynn St. (in Sidney), which is where we all live,” Harrod said. “In our neighborhood, we all care about each other.” Young, 17, the son of Mike and Kathy Young, moved with his family to Piqua two years ago. He was driving on Landman Mill Road near Piqua when he lost control and struck a tree. According to Harrod, he was CareFlighted to Miami Valley Hospital. “He was on life support for several weeks. His parents had to make the decision to disconnect the life support. They did, but he survived!” Harrod said. At the benefit next week, the dinner will comprise shredded pork, shredded chicken, fried chicken, baked beans, potato salad and cookies. Among the auction items are a diamond necklace, opening day Cincinnati Reds baseball tickets and a guided hunt by Kenton Outfitters. Admission tickets are $10. They are available at the door.

BBB warns of scams Arling named Identity Theft Scams — Nationally, two top social media sites have been and are expected to continue to be exploited by scam artists. For instance, you get a direct message from a friend on Twitter with something about a video of you on Facebook (“ROFL they was taping you” or “What RU doing in this FB vid?” are typical tweets). In a panic, you click on the link to see what the embarrassing video could possibly be, and you get an error message saying you need to update Flash or other video player. But, the file isn’t a new version of Flash; it’s a virus or malware, which steals confidential information from your computer or smart phone. Twitter recommends reporting such spam, resetting your password and revoking connections to thirdparty applications. This is just one example of a million ways scammers try to steal people’s identities. It can happen when scammers steal your personal information from your trash, mailbox, computer, even your car and use it to go into business as you, ruining your credit and emptying your bank account. Another common form of identity theft that’s difficult to avoid is

Learning Place boasts facility improvements PIQUA — A Learning Place Conference and Banquet Center at 201 R.M. Davis Parkway in Piqua, has some new and improved elements to enhance guest comfort and use of the facilities for meetings. The organization and conference center has a large facility for business meetings, training seminars, weddings, receptions, company parties and more. The center includes a seminar hall that will seat up to 540 people comfortably, two classroom meeting rooms, and a computer training lab with 12 stations. The space includes access to a catering kitchen, SmartBoards, LCD projectors, WiFi, customized seating arrangements and a large parking area. According to Tony Sherry, Business Development Manager, “The seminar hall has now been equipped with an additional center stage screen and LCD projector that is in addition to the two side screens. This larger screen will give guests better visibility of graphs and charts presented via PowerPoint presentations. The speaker’s podium area on the customized stage has additional track lighting for better visibility. The sound system has been modified to better serve our speakers and the audience.” In addition to the LCD projectors in each of the classrooms used for smaller group meetings, the center has now upgraded the spaces by modifying the lighting

systems and installing ceiling speakers and a new amplifier. Sherry said this will greatly improve PowerPoint presentations with better sound for guests. The guest restrooms have been improved to include occupancy lighting sensors for convenience and energy savings. Those interested in visiting or scheduling any of the rooms should call Sherry at A Learning Place at (937) 7736851 ext. 422 and try out the new guest services.

phishing. Phishing is when you receive a suspicious phone call asking for personal information or an email that puts a virus on your computer to hunt for your data. Phishers have even used your Better Business Bureau’s name to pull off their schemes. That’s why it’s important to protect your personal information. Financial Scams — People are still struggling in today’s economy. They are looking for ways to get out of debt or hang on to their homes. scamUnfortunately, mers take advantage of desperate situations. Loan scams continued to fester in 2012 and are expected to continue into the New Year. It seems for every legitimate lender out there, there is a scammer waiting to prey on people in desperate situations. Most of the scams advertised online promise things like no credit check or easy repayment terms. Then the hook: you have to make the first payment upfront, you have to buy an insurance policy or there’s some other kind of fee you have to pay first to secure the loan. In 2012, the BBB learned of a new, aggressive twist on loan scams: consumers who were threatened with lawsuits and law enforcement action if they didn’t pay back loans they said they had never even taken out in the first place. Some got calls at their workplace, even to relatives. The embarrassment of being thought of as a delinquent caused some victims to pay even when they knew they didn’t owe the money. Bogus mortgage and debt relief programs are also expected to continue to pop up. People will receive fake checks unexpectedly and think they are the answer to

prayers, but they will just escalate the problem. Check out mortgage and debt relief programs before doing business with them. And, be wary of checks that show up by surprise in your mailbox. Home Improvement Scams — Unfortunately, the home improvement industry is always among the BBB’s top 10 complained-about industries. Shady home improvement contractors make it difficult for the good guys in the industry to do business. They often leave your home worse than they found it. They usually knock on your door with a deal — like a great price on a paving job because they have leftover asphalt. The worst are those who move in after a natural disaster, taking advantage of desperate homeowners who need immediate help. A national example of scammers taking advantage of people after natural disasters happened after Super Storm Sandy. Tree removal, roofing, general home repairs — some were legitimate contractors who came from other areas for the volume of work available; others were unlicensed, uninsured and ill-prepared for the work; while some were even out-and-out scam artists who took the money and never did the work. These activities even happen locally after tornadoes, flooding and high winds. In an emergency, it’s tempting to skip reference checking, but that’s never a good idea.

DAYTON — The Better Business Bureau investigates thousands of scams every year. This past year, it launched two websites to help people figure out which offers are real and which ones are possibly frauds: • BBB Smart Investing (www.bbb.org/smartinvesting), developed in partnership with the FINRA Investor Education Foundation, informs people about investment fraud, Ponzi schemes and risky investments, and helps them assess their risk, check out brokers and avoid getting taken. • BBB Scam Stopper (www.bbb.org/scamstopper), developed in partnership with Western Union, educates people about the major types of scams and provides information on how to avoid them and how to report them. Each year, the BBB develops a list of scams it feels will be most common throughout the coming year. The BBB gathers information on scams from consumers and businesses — some of whom have been victims of scams, from federal agencies and from other reliable information sources. The BBB expects the top three scams in the Miami Valley to be the following:

SCHOOL district wanted to give parents the opportunity to express their thoughts and opinions about how to protect students, including the possibility of teachers being armed with guns. Sharing statistics about shootings in the United States, Scheu said there have been 182 school shootings since 1764 and since 1999, the tragic when Columbine High School shooting occurred, there have been 34 shootings. “We need to re-examine our safety plans,� Scheu stated. “I think for us to ignore what has happened is not realistic.� “At Sandy Hook (Elementary School in Oldtown, Conn.), they did everything by the book,� Scheu said. But he noted a gunman still managed to kill 20 students and six teachers. In one of the Sandy Hook classrooms, Scheu said, “the teacher had done exactly what they are told to do.� He said in one class, a little girl ran out of the classroom after playing dead so she would not be shot. She was the only survivor in the room of 16 students and a teacher. SCS currently locks all of its six school buildings, Scheu stated, adding there is an armed officer at Sidney High School (SHS). A bulletproof window at the high school protects a receptionist from those who might want to do harm. “We feel we need to be pro-active,� Scheu said. Sheriff Lenhart told the crowd of approximately 55 people that “Chief Gessler and I ... work jointly together.� He noted that in the city, the police would be the first responder but that the Sheriff’s Office would join forces. Lenhart assured the crowd that law enforcement are taking action but that because Ohio is a “home rule state,� it is up to school officials and the public to tell law enforcement what action they want taken. The Thursday before the Sandy Hook shooting, Lenhart said, he was taking training for new sheriffs and heard a talk about school shootings in Chardon by the sheriff of that county. That Friday morning, the sheriffs found themselves “watching TV like the rest of the world.� Lenhart said he would recommend having school resource officers in the schools and having teachers and administrators with concealed carry (of weapons). He also advocates have sheriff’s deputies have lunch on a regular basis in the schools with students, giving them an opportunity to get to know the students and staff. Lenhart also recom-

He noted that in big cities they have metal detectors and armed law enforcement officers in the schools.

He said practicing for a possible incident is important. He said his family trains for the possibility. “I am an advocate of concealed carry in the schools.� Wethington recommended that if teachers do start carrying guns, the public should not know which ones are carrying them. He noted that SCS can “be a shining star� if the right plan is put in place. Cook responded to a question, stating the SCS Board “does not have a position� on concealed carry at this time.

Alcohol will also remove reputations, good jobs, good friends, happiness from children’s hearts, sanity, freedom, man’s ability to adjust and live with his fellow man...even life itself.

The committee noted that while the first responder’s job is to remove a threat, the first few minutes after a threat has been realized are the most important in protecting the lives of students, staff and teachers. Members of the committee noted it is important to “slow down the threatâ€? and “speed up getting first responders on siteâ€? by making sure children get out safely and law enforcement are able to deal with parents and the media. Among ideas being discussed by the committee are: • Practice, practice, practice. Educate children and staff about safety threats and hold practice drills. • Hold active shooter training with first responders and staff in the school buildings. • Update building escape possibilities, including considering exit doors in each classroom. • Have armed security officers in each school. It was noted that having an armed officer in each school will make it harder to attack the school so an attacker will go some place else. • Follow up with the police about suspicions for children at home. • Arm teachers and administrators. There must be significantly more training than standard concealed-carry training. • Reinforce doors to classrooms. • Provide biometric gun safes keyed to employees with proper training distributed throughout school buildings. • Improve door security in all schools, including secure buzzer systems and camera systems. • Have metal detectors in all buildings. • Have each building principal meet with the sheriff and police chief to review and improve individual building safety plans as needed.

ANSWER: There are a few “rules” you learn in medical school, and one of them is this: You should assume that any man with iron deficiency has colon cancer until you prove that isn’t the case. Before taking iron for iron-deficiency, you need to know why you are iron deficient. Cancer is what we fear most, but there are other causes of bleeding, including polyps.

Gasoline prices to Service Center offers decrease in 2013 Parent Project seminar WASHINGTON, D.C. — Gasoline prices this year will be less expensive than in 2012 as a result of increased domestic oil production and lower demand, according to AAA. The national average price of gasoline should peak at $3.60-$3.80 per gallon barring any significant unanticipated events, which compares to a peak of $3.94 a gallon in 2012. “Cheaper gas prices are good news for the millions of Americans that depend on their car to travel where they need to go,” said AAA President and CEO Robert Darbelnet. “Lower gasoline prices should translate into billions of dollars in tangible household savings given that the vast majority of Americans rely on automobiles to live their lives.” Gasoline prices should rise steadily through April or early May, but at a slower pace than last year. As is typical for this time of year, prices will rise as a result of seasonal demand increases and in anticipation of the switchover to more expensive summer-blend gasoline. Following a late-spring peak, prices should drop during the first half of the summer to as low as $3.20-$3.40 per gallon before rising again in advance of the Gulf Coast hurricane season and the switchover to winterblend gasoline. Prices should end the year by falling to low or near-low averages for 2013. “Absent significant storms, majors wars or production and distribution the single outages, largest factor that will influence gasoline prices in 2013 will be the strength of the U.S. economy,” continued Darbelnet. “Stronger than

expected growth in the economy would result in higher oil and gasoline prices in anticipation of higher consumption, while a weaker than expected economy would drive prices downwards. Inaction by Congress to reach a debt deal in two months also would result in increased concern about the U.S. economy and could lead to lower gasoline prices.” Today’s national average price of gasoline is $3.30 per gallon, which is seven cents less than last year and five cents less than a month ago. Motorists in 39 states today are paying lower average gasoline prices than a year ago. States paying more than last year are located primarily in the Northeast, which is still dealing with the supply aftereffects of Hurricane Sandy. The average price of gasoline today is below $3 per gallon in six states including Colo., Idaho, Minn., Okla., Utah and Wyo.. The only state paying more than $4 per gallon is Hawaii. The annual average price of gasoline in 2012 was the most expensive on record at $3.60 per gallon, but the situation for motorists is already improving. On

Jan. 5, the national daily average dropped below the year-ago price for the first time since August 20, which means motorists are now paying less for gasoline than last year – a trend that AAA believes is likely to continue. Gasoline prices in 2012 reached record highs partly as a result of unanticipated production disruptions from refinery fires, pipeline closures and major hurricanes. Oil prices also were higher as a result of tensions in the Middle East including new sanctions on Iran. These types of market-moving events are impossible to predict and any forecast on gasoline prices can change as a result of similar factors. As North America’s largest motoring and leisure travel orAAA ganization, provides more than 53 million members with travel, insurance, financial and automotive-related services.

How do I keep my troubled teen from running away, becoming violent toward me, using drugs and alcohol, or failing out of school? Tough questions for which an organization called The Parent Project has spent 25 years developing solutions that put parents back in control of their children’s lives. Certified facilitators do not teach parents how to be parents. Their role is to involve parents in preventing and interceding in their children’s destructive behavior. As an example, in a session several situations with possible scenarios were presented and those in training were given the task of working together to come up with outcomes and remedies. One of those scenarios revolved around what to do if your child threatens to run away. Several remedies were discussed that resulted in the same outcome — putting the child in a situation where his or her only alternative was to return home. They included:Have law enforcement pick the child up after curfew; call parents of friends where the child might go refuge; contact for schools in case they show up there; print their pictures on posters; remove all their clothing or valuables from the home so they cannot sell

It also strives to strengthen school attendance and performance, the family unit and parent involvement. As a participant in a 10-week Parent Project class offered by the Shelby Educational County Service Center, parents can expect to learn effective communication strategies and receive support from other parents dealing with very similar teenage issues. Additionally this series will include information regarding adolescent depression, alcohol and other drug use, and the influence of music and media on youth. The next 10-week session will be held Wednesday evenings from March 6 through May 8 at the SidneyShelby County YMCA.

Speed kills: 479 speed-related deaths in 2011 COLUMBUS — Excessive speed reduces reaction time and increases the severity of traffic crashes. That is why the Ohio State Highway Patrol is urging all motorists to obey the posted speed limit and to drive within their abilities. In 2011, 30 percent of all fatal crashes were caused by speed-related factors — killing 479

them for cash. “As parents, we have to understand that we do not control our children, we can only control the environment they live in,” Coordinator Chad Gessler said. One of the most effective tools for interceding in a child’s destructive behavior is a remedy the Parent Project has developed called “T-Spot,” according to the program’s promotional release. It is a behavior modification method where everything that is important to the child is taken away for a short period of time. An example used in class is taking away a child’s TV privileges because they are not doing homework. If they return to the room and turn on the TV, take the TV away. If they then shut the door and refuse to do the homework, take the door off the hinges so you can be sure they are doing homework. “You only take these things away for a short period of time, kids need clear and specific terms for consequences in order for them to be effective” Gessler stressed. The Parent Project goals are to build hope for families and communities; provide specific, no-nonsense solutions to the problems parents face today; and offer practical and emotional support to families as they begin the difficult

But the center announced that it has exceeded the previous year’s goal and raised a record $32,700. “I am thrilled and impressed at the generosity of this community. We are overwhelmed,” said Jan Geuy, Alpha Community Center executive director. “The Alpha Community Center is an integral piece of the Sidney/Shelby County social service network. Meeting the needs of our at-risk families is why

we exist. Without our donors’ compassion and generosity, many families would be forced to live in a harsher reality. Now, we can help ease their burdens.” For more information contact the Alpha Community Center at 498or email 9758 jgeuy@alphacommunitycenter.org. The Alpha Center is a nonprofit organization, serving the Sidney and Shelby County area since 1984 through four programs: served meals, emergency pantry, after school and summer programs for children, and rent/utility assistance.

Brady between Ravens and Super Bowl FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — You again! Ray versus Tom. Tom versus Ray. Oh yeah, the Ravens and Patriots, along for the ride. Ray Lewis’ last ride, one Tom Brady hopes to cut short on Sunday in the AFC championship game. A year after a brutal last-minute loss in Foxborough, Baltimore is back, looking for a reversal of fortune and a spot in the Super Bowl for the first time since winning it in 2001. If the Ravens fall again, Lewis’ superb 17-year career as the NFL’s best linebacker of his era will end as he retires. Brady, the most successful quarterback of his time, has no thoughts of retirement — or of failing to make his sixth Super Bowl in the last dozen seasons. That Lewis and Brady will bring a mutual admiration society to Gillette Stadium adds some flattery to what has become an intense rivalry. “Both sides under-

stand the game of football,” Lewis said. “There have been some great, great rivalries and we have one of those going on with New England now.” Adds Brady: “It’s really a pleasure to play against him. He’s really been so consistent over the years and durable and tough. He’s so instinctive.” At the forefront in this rematch, naturally, is Brady, who has won three NFL titles and would be only the second player to reach six Super Bowls by leading New England (13-4) past Baltimore (12-6). And there’s Lewis, the most dominant inside linebacker the league has seen since the heyday of Mike Singletary. Brady is all about composure, accuracy and even sophistication. Lewis brings aggression, ferocity and mayhem to the field. An odd couple, indeed, but one that appreciates the attributes of the other. “He doesn’t give up hardly any plays, makes

a ton of tackles,” Brady said of the 37-year-old Lewis, who missed 10 games with a right triceps injury, but has been a tackling machine in the postseason. “He’s great in the pass game, great in the run game. He blitzes well, like he

did a few years ago. He’s really a playmaker for them, so they give him an opportunity to make those plays. You see when he makes a play, their whole sideline gets really amped-up.” No one can be more amped-up for this oppor-

tunity than Lewis. No one, of course, raises his teammates to a more fevered pitch than Lewis. But what the Ravens need Sunday is discipline to go with the fervor. Otherwise, Brady will pick them apart. For all the energy and

clutch plays Baltimore’s defense has made since Lewis returned, it remains vulnerable because it’s three biggest stars — Lewis, safety Ed Reed, outside LB Terrell Suggs — are aging and not nearly 100 percent healthy.

Redskins blast Jets 80-49 FORT LORAMIE — The Fort Loramie Redskins buried the Fairlawn Jets with a huge first half, then easily withstood a mild rally by the Jets in the second half to post a surprisingly easy 80-49 victory in County boys basketball action Friday at Loramie. The win puts Fort Loramie, which had 80 despite only nine points in the third quarter, at 3-3 in the County and 6-7 overall heading into action Tuesday at Houston. Fairlawn’s loss drops the Jets out of contention in the County at 4-4. Overall, they are 9-5 and play at Riverside tonight. It was an amazing first half for the Redskins, who took control early on and raced to a 17-7 advantage with 2:12 left in the opening quarter. When the period ended, the Redskins led 22-10, then really poured it on in the second quarter against the struggling Jets. A Devon Braun three made it 29-14 and that began a 14-0 run that was capped by a Craig Fullenkamp three and a bucket by Logan McGee that made it 43-14 with 2:00 left in the second quarter. And by the half, the lead had ballooned to 48-19. Fairlawn came out and played well in the third quarter, scoring the first six of the second half to cut the lead to 48-25. The Jets got the lead down to 50-33 but Loramie reponded with a 5-0 run to push the lead back to 55-33. Fairlawn then scored the next six to cut it to 55-39, and Loramie took that 16-point lead into the final period. A three by Seth Guillozet followed by another Loramie bucket upped the lead back to 24, and the Redskins coasted home. The Redskins shot 53 percent from the field, hitting 34for-64, including 9-for-17 from

Trotwood pulls away from Sidney Sidney played an excellent first half, but Trotwood had too much depth and too much firepower in a 103-69 verdict over the Jackets in high school boys basketball Friday. The loss left Sidney at 2-12 with Lehman coming to the Jacket gym tonight. “We just ran out of gas,” said Sidney coach Greg Snyder, whose team trailed just 49-41 at the half. “They are very, very deep and relentless with their pressure. It came down to not boxing out. We couldn’t quite stay in front of them, but a lot of that is they are so quick and athletic, it’s tough to do that, especially for a whole game. But I’m proud of the way the kids fought, and I felt like we outplayed them in the first half.” The Jackets got a big game from Conner Echols, who had 23 points, 17 of those in the first half. James Daniel added 19. “Echols really had a nice game,” said Snyder. “He made plays for other guys. And Daniel played well again, got to the hole. Jalen Herd got off to a rough start, but really got it going and was very, very helpful against their

Tigers remain in 1st, beat Raiders 59-48 JACKSON CENTER — The Jackson Center Tigers remained all alone in first place in the County boys basketball standings with a 59-48 victory over the visiting Russia Raiders Friday night. The defending champs are now 6-1 in the league and 11-2 overall and have another big game tonight at Anna in makeup action. Russia saw its twogame win streak snapped and is now 3-5 in the County and 5-9 on the year, with another challenge tonight at New Bremen. The game was tight throughout the first half, with the Tigers leading just 24-20 at the break. “Alex (Meyer) didn’t play much of the first quarter and only about half the second quarter because of foul trouble,” said Jackson coach Scott Elchert. Meyer would go on to finish with 24 points, however, and did some real damage at the foul line, connecting on 11 of 12, all in the second half, and 10 in the final period.

Mark Holbrook to address Western Ohio Civil War Roundtable CELINA — Mark Holbrook, the marketing director with the Ohio Historical Society in Columbus, will speak at the Jan. 31 meeting of the Western Ohio Civil War Roundtable. His remarks will cover some of the lesser known Ohioans who served the Union cause as Generals in the Union Army. The meeting is held in Room 154, Dwyer Hall, Wright State University-Lake Campus, in Celina. Meeting begins at 7:15 p.m. Holbrook will be returning to the local Roundtable with a reprise of a role he performed at Sharpsburg, Md., for the 150th anniversary recognition of the Battle of Antietam in September 2012. The program is free and open to the public. Generals Ulysses S. Grant, William Tecumseh Sherman, and Phil Sheridan; and future presidents Hayes, Garfield and McKinley get most of the attention focused upon Ohioans in the Civil War. But what about the more than 200 other Ohioans who served as generals in the Union Army? On Jan. 31, Holbrook will teach about these lesser-known soldiers from the Buckeye State whose heroism and bravery matched their famous counterparts. The meeting has been changed to the fifth Thursday to accommodate Holbrook’s speaking schedule. This will be Holbrook’s second appearance before the Western Ohio Roundtable. In 2011, he appeared in character portraying Matthew Brady, famous as the great Civil War photographer. This presentation is made possible in part by the Ohio Humanities Council, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

NEW YEAR NEW YOU Calorie tracking: knowledge is power Most people eat by habit, not with intention. People tend to eat the foods they ate growing up or whatever the chef in the house has fixed for the night. This leads people to be divorced from the caloric value of their foods. Weight maintenance and weight loss are based on the difference in the calories you take in and the calories you expend each day. For many people, understanding what they eat and where their calories come from is the first step leading to better nutrition and a healthier lifestyle. For packaged goods, you can use the information the government requires to be provided on the box. There are very good websites available which can help you find out the caloric value of whatever meal you are putting together at home. Proper record keeping is essential. You can create a

spreadsheet or just keep track on a notebook, noting how many calories you consume each day. Make a column for each day and record what is in your meals, tabulating at the end of the day. Take special note of meals eaten out or special celebrations so you can see the difference. Those calories can add up quickly. Subtract your daily caloric output and any exercise, and you’ll have an idea about how much you are over or under your daily use. The amount of calories you use every day will change based on age, gender, physical activity level and weight. A pound of body fat has 3,500 calories, which means that, if are expending 500 more calories each day than you are taking in, you’ll lose about one pound per week. To put it in perspective, the Food and Drug Administration recommends men take in 2,000–

Mitchell

CHIROPRACTIC

2,500 calories daily, and women, 1,500–2,000 calories daily. Of course, you don’t want to be counting calories for the rest of your life, so give yourself a goal of counting every day for two weeks. This will give you a wide enough sample to see some general trends without overburdening you. You can try to make small changes in your dietary habits and then, after a few months, count calories again for a couple of weeks to see if there are significant differences. Five hundred calories per day isn’t that many, and even small changes can make a big change. Counting calories seems like it could be an onerous activity, but once you have your system down, it’s easy to keep track.. Keep track of your calories and you can keep yourself on track to your weight maintenance goals.

Cardio & Weights: The Magic combination There are two things that every healthy workout regimen needs: cardiovascular exercise and resistance training. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offer some flexible recommendations. At the very least, adults should engage in moderate aerobic activity for 150 minutes each week or vigorous physical activity for 75 minutes each week. They also recommend activities which strengthen muscles at least two days per week. If you are looking to start a useful workout regimen, include these two things for optimal results. Cardiovascular work gets your heart rate going and starts your breathing factor. Those two things are the defining element of cardiovascular work. Things like pushing a lawnmower or riding a bike to the store can count as moderate activity. Participating in organized team sports or swimming laps are the kinds of activities that compose vigorous activities. If you are starting an exercise regime and are looking for maximum effect, start with moderate activities and then lead to more vigorous ones. Muscle-strengthening activities should work all of your major muscle groups—legs, arms, back, chest, abdomen and shoulders. For maximum benefit, they should be done until it is difficult to do any more work with that muscle group.Weightlifting is the clas-

category, as do other exercises like knee bends and lunges. You can also count things like heavy gardening as your weekly activity. Many activities like yoga, hiking and swimming actually combine the two of these, making them the perfect exercise. It’s important to accurately assess your level of effort when engaging in these activities. Whatever you decide to do, keep these basic principles in mind. Try to get your cardiovascular system up and running for at least 30 minutes, five times per week and work to strengthen muscles at least twice per week. 2358352

ARLO & JANIS

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, Jan. 20, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You’re never casual about money, which is why you might have some harsh words (briefly) with someone about cash or even something you own. Just be patient. Let it pass. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a goofy day, so tread lightly. Expect shortages and delays, and definitely hold your temper in check at some point today. You’ll be tempted to be short with someone. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) On the whole, this is an OK day; yet something is troubling you. Something is worrying you in the back of your mind, and this will tend to make you impatient with others. Be aware of this. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Disputes with a female in a group situation might occur very briefly. However, this is so mild that it doesn’t have to ruin everybody’s day, does it? LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Difficulties with authority figures — bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs — might arise today. Not everyone realizes that the regal, royal nature of Leo needs respect. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your attempt to have a little adventure today might be blocked by someone, which will, no doubt, annoy you. Just remember, everyone has a job to do. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Minor disputes about shared property, inheritances or anything you own jointly with others could arise today. This will pass quickly if you don’t make a big deal about anything. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Be prepared to compromise with others today. The Moon is opposite your sign, and today people are inclined to be impatient. Oh yeah. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) If difficulties arise with co-workers today, make sure you are part of the solution and not part of the problem. Use your breezy optimism to smooth over troubled waters. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Parents will have to be extra patient with children today. Sometimes kids will be kids, and that’s all there is to it. After all, you’re the adult. (Supposedly.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Work to keep domestic peace today, especially with female relatives. Anger serves no purpose except to make everyone miserable, including you. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This can be a nice day if you don’t let annoyances get under your skin. Demonstrate grace under pressure, and everyone will be happy. Definitely you! YOU BORN TODAY You are bighearted, and you have a dry sense of humor. You know how to lighten any situation with your clever wit. You’re impulsive and easily make snap decisions. Basically, you are emotional, expressive and nurturing. People like you. In the year ahead, something you’ve been involved with for nine years will diminish or end in order to make room for something new. Birthdate of: Bill Maher, social commentator; George Burns, comedian; Melissa Rivers, actress/celebrity TV host. (c) 2013 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western branches are Union trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks.
