The Silver Sneakers of Peak Community Wellness enjoyed a Halloween Party at Peak Wednesday and members costumed themselves for the occasion. Coordinator Shelley Kreeger, far right, says they try to hold about four parties a year. Its just for fun and fellowship, she said. Its about fun first and foremost but everything we do incorporates beneficial things like balance, strength and using the senses. We have such a good time. There will be a Silver Sneakers open house Nov. 12-13 at Peak Community Wellness.

NWC will change commissioners in 2013 The Northwest Conference principals voted at Wednesdays regularlyscheduled conference meeting to name Jim Raabe of Bluffton as the next commissioner/secretary of the NWC effective July 1, 2013. Raabe will succeed Mike Mullen, who was hired as commissioner/secretary of the conference in March of 2006 following a 31-year career as the Sports Director and play-by-play announcer for WIMA Radio in Lima. Mullen informed conference officials earlier this year that he intended to retire from the position at the end of the 2012-13 school year and asked that a replacement be named early enough to ensure a smooth transition. Raabe recently retired after 30 years as an accounting/business teacher and athletic administrator in the Bluffton school system. He holds an accounting degree from Capital University in Columbus and a Masters in Business Education from Bowling Green State University. Raabe also served as Athletic Director at Bluffton High School for more than half of his career and in 2010 was chosen as the Athletic Director of the Year by the Northwest Ohio Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association (NWOIAAA).

Syrian rebels kill 28 soldiers as fighting rages

By BARBARA SURK The Associated Press BEIRUT Syrian rebels killed 28 soldiers in attacks on military checkpoints in northern Idlib province today, just hours after a wave of bombings hit Damascus and its outskirts, activists said. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the rebels attacked three military checkpoints near the town of Saraqeb, killing the troops. Five rebels also died in gun battles following the attacks, according to the Observatory, which relies on reports from activists on the ground. There was no official confirmation of the deaths from the authorities. The relentless fighting in Syria has killed more than 36,000 people according to activists since March 2011, when the uprising against President Bashar Assads regime began. It started as peaceful protests inspired by the Arab Spring but quickly morphed into a bloody civil war. The rebels fighting to topple Assad often complain they are outgunned by the military, which has in recent

NEW YORK Subways started rolling in much of New York City today for the first time since Superstorm Sandy crippled the nations largest transit system. Traffic crawled over bridges, where police enforced mandatory carpooling. Subway platforms were not crowded. Only a dozen people waited on a platform at Penn Station, and in Brooklyn, an F train headed toward a bus stop in near silence, with a fraction of its normal passenger load. Trains in Manhattan ran only north of 34th Street, unable to travel through flooded tunnels in downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn. New Yorkers were grateful anyway. Ronnie Abraham, a technology worker, was waiting at Penn Station for a train to Harlem, a trip that takes 20 minutes by subway and 2 1/2 hours on city buses that have been overwhelmed since resuming service Tuesday. Its the lifeline of the city, Abraham said. It cant get much better than this. After reopening airports, theaters and the stock See, STORM, page 2

days intensified airstrikes on opposition strongholds following the failure of a U.N.backed truce over a four-day holiday weekend that never took hold. On Wednesday alone, activists said more than 100 were killed nationwide in airstrikes, artillery shelling and fighting. Much of the violence took place in rebellious suburbs of the capital Damascus and in Aleppo, Syrias largest city and a major front in the 19-month conflict. In Damascus, terrorists detonated three bombs in Al-Mazzeh district late Wednesday night, targeting a mosque, a sports club and a shop, state-run news agency SANA said. One person was killed in the explosion near the districts Al-Houda mosque, and two were wounded, the agency reported today. Six people, including a child, were injured in the two other explosions, according to the report. The government refers to rebels fighting to topple Assad as terrorists and accuses them and opposition supporters of being part of a foreign plot to destroy Syria. See, SYRIA, page 2

exchange, city officials hoped the subway would ease the gridlock that had paralyzed the city, forcing cars and pedestrians to inch through crowded streets without working stoplights. Television footage today showed heavy traffic coming into Manhattan as police turned away cars that carried fewer than three people, a rule meant to ease congestion. Flights took off and landed today at LaGuardia Airport, the last of the three major New York-area airports to reopen since the storm, which killed more than 70 people across the Northeast and left millions without power. Across the region, people stricken by the storm pulled together, providing comfort to those left homeless and offering hot showers and electrical outlets for charging cellphones to those without power. The spirit of can-do partnership extended to politicians, who at least made the appearance of

Nine persons appeared in Van Wert County Common Please Court before Judge Charles Steele on Wednesday.

He then requested and was granted Treatment in Lieu of conviction and his case was stayed pending completion of the treatment program.

putting their differences aside to focus together on Sandy. We are here for you, President Barack Obama said Wednesday in Brigantine, N.J., touring a ravaged shore. We are not going to tolerate red tape. We are not going to tolerate bureaucracy. Obama joined Republican Gov. Chris Christie, who had been one of the most vocal supporters of Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney, to tour the ravaged coast. But the two men spoke only of helping those harmed by the storm. On Wednesday, masses of people walked shoulder-toshoulder across the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan for work, reversing the escape scenes from the Sept. 11 terror attack and the blackout of 2003. They reached an island where many people took the lack of power and water and transportation as a personal challenge. On Third Avenue, people gathered around a power strip that had been offered to charge cellphones.

At a fire hydrant on West 16th Street, 9-year-old Shiyin Ge and her brother, 12-year-old Shiyuan Ge, stood in line to fill up buckets of water. But unlike the adults, the two kids held plastic Halloween candy pails painted with grinning jack-olanterns. Theres no water in our house, said Shiyin Ge, who had planned to dress up as a ladybug for Halloween. Downtown Manhattan, which includes the financial district, Sept. 11 memorial and other tourist sites, was still mostly an urban landscape of shuttered bodegas and boardedup restaurants. People roamed in search of food, power and a hot shower. Suburban commuter trains started running for the first time on Wednesday, and Amtraks Northeast Corridor was to take commuters from city to city on Friday for the first time since the storm. From West Virginia to the Jersey Shore, the storms damage was still being felt, and seen.

Sentencings Kristina Diltz, 32, Van Wert appeared for sentencing on a charge of violating her community control. The court continued this matter until Nov. 7 to gather more information.

He admitted testing positive for drugs earlier this month. He was released on a surety bond pending a sentencing hearing to be set.

Also according to SANA, authorities raised the death toll from another bombing Wednesday evening in a Damascus suburb that houses a Shiite Muslim shrine to 12, after one more victim died of wounds. Many Syrians, particularly those in Damascus where fighting and demonstrations have been relatively light, fear that Islamic extremists that have fought alongside rebel units may be targeting the capital more frequently to help drive Assad out of power. Eyewitnesses of Wednesdays blast said the assailants picked random spots to detonate explosives and stoke panic among residents. There was a very loud bang and then I saw the kiosk, which sold watches, engulfed in flames, said Abu Rami, a 44-year-old civil servant and resident of Al-Mazzeh area. Abu Rami, who only gave his nickname for fear of reprisals, said security forces arrived in the area minutes after the explosion and sealed it off. Another resident in the area where the explosions occurred said security must have been compromised as the district is patrolled by troops. I find it strange that three explosions occurred in a residential area that is completely under the control of Syrian security forces, said the shop owner, who only gave his first name, Wael. There are security checkpoints at the entrances and exits to al-Mazzeh, its very strange. Elsewhere in the country, 116 people were killed on Wednesday, according to Rami Abdul-Rahman, the head of the Observatory. Of those, 41 people were killed in Aleppo and 35 died in heavy fighting in the suburbs of Damascus, he said. Last week, more than 500 people were killed in fighting during what was supposed to be a four-day truce timed to coincide with a major Muslim holiday. The failure to at least temporarily halt fighting has left the international community at a loss about how to stop the war. Today, China called for a phased-in cease-fire and negotiations on a gradual political transition to end the bloodshed. The four-point proposal

Ohio court halts expanded Ohio student accused of classroom Romney threat Northeast Ohio still grappling with ballot counting ruling
CLEVELAND (AP) Thousands of homes and businesses are still without power in northeast Ohio following this weeks storm. Dozens of residents are awaking in Red Cross shelters, and many schools are closed for a third day. FirstEnergy reports that around 100,000 customers were still in the dark before dawn today, with most of the outages concentrated in Cleveland and the western suburbs. The utility says it hopes to have most of it restored by the end of the weekend. High winds spinning off superstorm Sandy swiped Ohio early Tuesday, uprooting trees, bringing down power lines and causing other havoc. Two people were killed in crashes on icy roads in northwest Ohio. Much of the northeast is still struggling to recover from the devastating storm, which killed more than 70 people.

Former Ohio labor leader admits to taking bribes

COLUMBUS A federal appeals court on Wednesday temporarily halted an attempt by voter advocates to expand the conditions under which provisional ballots are counted in the swing state of Ohio. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati put on hold a lower courts ruling that said the state must count provisional ballots cast not just in the wrong precinct but in the wrong polling location altogether. With less than a week before Election Day, the appeals court ruling brought some clarity to one of the remaining disputes involving Ohios election procedures. Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husteds broader appeal on the matter remains before the appeals court, but it isnt expected to be decided before the election Tuesday. Husted said Wednesday that the courts move allows him to provide Ohios 88 county elections boards with guidance for processing provisional ballots, which are counted later and can be challenged. Allowing the lower court ruling to con-

CLEVELAND (AP) A former Ohio labor leader could spend up to six years in prison after pleading guilty in federal court to soliciting and receiving bribes. The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer reports that Robert Peto pleaded guilty Wednesday to six charges of soliciting and receiving bribes from an electrical contractor and an investment broker. The 58-year-old Peto served on the board of directors of the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority for eight years before resigning in August. He also served as an officer in the Ohio and Vicinity Regional Council of Carpenters before being removed in 2011. Peto pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy, plus tampering with a witness and using his position as a public official to illegally obtain property in return for an official act.

Expand Honda announces $200M investment, 200 jobs Your MARYSVILLE (AP) Honda said today said. it will make more than $200 million in new The Russells Point upgrade will result in Shopping investments at two plants in western Ohio, some new jobs, but the company said it will creating at least 200 new manufacturing announce details later. Network jobs. Honda said it has invested about $475
The automaker says the expansions for the Anna engine plant and Russells Point transmission plant were announced to mark Hondas 30th anniversary of auto production in the United States. Honda spokesman Ron Lietzke said the upgrades will continue the companys effort to localize the manufacturing of its products in North America. Honda will spend about $170 million to add a fourth engine assembly line and make other upgrades at the plant in Anna, adding about 200 new jobs. Construction will begin in the next few months at the plant about 50 miles north of Dayton. Another $50 million investment at the transmission plant at Russells Point, about 60 miles northeast of Dayton, is in addition to a round of previously announced new spending at the facility. The projects will increase flexibility to produce advanced transmissions and powertrain components, the company million at those plants within the past two years. The Anna facility is Hondas largest engine plant. It employs about 2,600 people and produces four-cylinder and V6 engines and drivetrain components. The roughly 1,100 employees at the Russells Point facility make automatic transmissions and four-wheel-drive systems. Hondas new Accord sedan being built at the companys Marysville plant in central Ohio has led to investments and more jobs in the Anna and Russells Point plants, with companies that supply Honda with products and services also getting a boost. Overall, Honda has about 13,500 Ohio employees in manufacturing, support, research and development and other operations. Honda has nine automobile assembly lines at seven plant sites in North America, with an annual capacity of 1.63 million Honda and Acura cars.

tinue, he said, had the potential to cause problems and confusion. Voters could have cast ballots wherever they wanted to in the county, regardless of their eligible precinct, Husted said in a statement. The ballots at issue are dubbed wrong church, wrong pew, referring to both a mistaken polling place and a mistaken precinct. A lawyer for a union that sued over the issue said as many as 8,000 voters cast such ballots in 2008. Some polling places contain voting machines for several precincts. Voters in the right building, but in the wrong precinct, are labeled right church, wrong pew. Ohio has been ordered to count those under a previous court decision. However, the state had opposed counting ballots at wrong polling locations, saying it could create Election Day chaos among other problems. The three-judge appeals panel agreed. It wrote in its opinion that the lower courts ruling would result in interference with orderly election administration and greater con-

fusion among poll workers and voters. The appeals court decision delays an Oct. 24 ruling by Columbus federal Judge Algenon Marbley, who said he based his order on the rationale that such problems arise because of mistakes by poll workers. But the appeals court questioned whether such ballots at the wrong polling locations should be counted. Though voters must rely heavily on poll workers to direct them to the proper precinct in a multi-precinct voting place, they are not as dependent on poll workers to identify their correct polling place, the appeals court concluded. The decision was an elections victory for Husted, a Republican. It followed an Oct. 16 ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court in which it refused a request by Husted and Ohios attorney general to get involved in a dispute over early voting. The move by the high court cleared the way for Ohio voters to cast such ballots, giving Democrats and President Barack Obamas campaign a victory three weeks before the election.

COLUMBUS A community college student who was overheard by a teacher saying he wanted to leave class to go shoot Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney during a visit to the state has been arrested and charged with inducing panic, police said. Shaquille Brown told police after he was taken into custody that he didnt even have a gun to do such a thing, according to an Elyria Police Department report. Brown, 19, was charged Wednesday in Elyria Municipal Court with one count of inducing panic, a low-level felony. He said in a brief phone interview that he was just making a joke and never said anything about shooting. Brown, of Elyria, a twohour drive north of Columbus, was arrested Monday after a teacher at Lorain County Community College overheard him during a time that

students were doing group work in a class, the police report said. Brown blurted out, can we leave, because Romney is in town and I want to go shoot him, the report said. Romney spoke Monday at a high school in Avon Lake, a 20-minute drive from Elyria. Ohio is one of the most pivotal and closely contested battleground states, with most polls showing a very competitive race between Romney and Democratic President Barack Obama. The teacher, after hearing the comment about Romney, told Brown she had to report him and then called campus security, the police report said. Later, talking to arresting officers, Brown said, I dont even have a gun to do it. Brown was taken to Lorain County Jail after being interviewed by the Secret Service, the police report said. Secret Service spokesman Max Milien said the agency was familiar with the case involving Brown and would follow up on it.

Good taste is the worst vice ever invented. Dame Edith Sitwell, English poet (1887-1964)

Storms cost may hit $50B; rebuilding to ease blow

WASHINGTON (AP) Superstorm Sandy will end up causing about $20 billion in property damages and $10 billion to $30 billion more in lost business, according to IHS Global Insight, a forecasting firm. In the long run, the devastation the storm inflicted on New York City and other parts of the Northeast will barely nick the U.S. economy. Thats the view of economists who say a slightly slower economy in coming weeks will likely be matched by reconstruction and repairs that will contribute to growth over time. The short-term blow to the economy, though, could subtract about 0.6 percentage point from U.S. economic growth in the OctoberDecember quarter, IHS says. Retailers, airlines and home construction firms will likely lose some business. The storm cut power to about 7 million homes, shut down 70 percent of East Coast oil refineries and inflicted worse-than-expected damage in the New York metro area. That area produces about 10 percent of U.S. economic output. New York City was all but closed off by car, train and air. The superstorm overflowed the citys waterfront, flooded the financial district and subway tunnels and cut power to hundreds of thousands. Power By PHILIP ELLIOTT The Associated Press is expected to be fully restored in Manhattan and Brooklyn within four days. The New York Stock Exchange will reopen for regular trading Wednesday after being shut down for two days. Theres no evidence that the shutdown had any effect on the financial system or the economy. But Jim Paulsen, chief strategist at Wells Capital Management, said further delays might have rattled consumers and dampened their spending. Its about confidence, Paulsen said. Were watching these horrific images of the storm, and people are thinking whether they should ahead with that big purchase ....It doesnt do any good to have another day with headlines saying the U.S cant figure out how to open its stock exchange. Most homeowners who suffered losses from flooding wont be able to benefit from their insurance policies. Standard homeowner policies dont cover flood damage, and few homeowners have flood insurance. But Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac said they will offer help to borrowers whose homes were damaged or destroyed, who live in designated disaster areas and whose loans the mortgage giants own or guarantee. Among other steps, mortgage

DEAR EDITOR, Our Emperor Obama was caught on tape whispering to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility. Flexibility to do what? Obviously something we Americans wont like or he would tell us now. Were being lied to. Hes hiding something serious. Is he selling Americans out in the arms race? Is it gun control? Hes already declared war on the First Amendment and Catholics. If youre not Catholic, hell be after your religion soon to pay for his Obamacare, which over 60 percent of Americans detest. Under Obamacare, we senior citizens are to get pre-death counseling rather than treatment. If youre a hunter or know someone who hunts, or whose livelihood is dependant on any business related to hunting, you or they will be out of luck if hes re-elected. A lot of people think hes only opposed to assault rifles or Saturday night specials. He wants to ban all guns, even home defense guns. The FBI has said many times that violent crime goes way down when people have home defense guns. Heres Obamas record of his attack on the Second Amendment: - Obama appointed two anti-Second Amendment Supreme Court Justices, one of whom lied to get appointed (Sonia Sotomayor). If he gets one more, the Second Amendment is effectively repealed. - He voted to ban millions of common rifles, pistols and shotguns. - He voted to ban almost all rifle ammunition used for hunting. - He voted to uphold criminal prosecution of people who used firearms in self defense, even in their own homes. - He voted to ban all handguns, even those used for selfdefense in your own home. - He opposed all Right-to-Carry laws. - He voted to raise taxes on hunting ammo by 500 percent. - He and his U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, shipped U.S. guns to Mexican drug cartels in an attempt to blame U.S. guns for gun violence. It failed and U.S. border agent Brian Terry was killed because of it. Holder is being prosecuted by Congress and Obamas hiding behind executive privilege for his part. The U.S. Military got Osama Bin Laden. Obama just happened to be president when they did. Obama thinks the governments job is to take money from somebody and give it to somebody else. At best, he is a Marxist. He may even be a Communist. He must be defeated. Please go to the polls and vote for freedom. Vote for Mitt Romney. Also, our Senator, Sherrod Brown, thinks like Obama. Vote for Josh Mandel for Senator, he respects our Christian values, like Mitt Romney. Folks, the Democrats of today are not the Democrats of old. Once upon a time, the Democratic Party protected workers rights. Not anymore. What the Democrats want today is absolute power over all of us. James D. Pohlman Spencerville

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Tribal leaders push for big voter turnout

One Year Ago The National Association of Letter Carriers recognized several retired letter carriers Monday. Rick Bonds delivered mail for 40 years; Tony Mesker received a 30-year pin but served 38 years before retiring; Jeff Metcalfe put in 40 years; and Gordon Carmean received a letter and gold card of lifetime membership for 50 years of service. 25 Years Ago 1987 One of the highest honors a tuba player in the Ohio State Marching Band can have is dotting the I in Script Ohio at a home football game. Earning the right at Saturdays game with Michigan State is senior Dan Banks, a four-year member of the OSU marching band. Banks is a 1983 graduate of Elida High School where he was a member of the band four years and a member of the golf and tennis teams. When a team loses 34-12, the losers touchdowns usually dont merit much attention. But Pauldings points were different. They are the only points allowed by Jefferson this season. Jefferson rolled in its 40th straight regular season win. In the process the Wildcats wrapped up at least a share of their fourth straight Northwest Conference championship. The Fort Jennings Central Jaycees celebrated their fifth anniversary with a dinner at the Gas Mill. Past presidents and current president are Joyce Brokamp, 1982-84; Diana Saum, 1984-85; Kay Metzger 1985-86; Barb Phillips 1986-87; and Joyce Brokamp 1987-88. 50 Years Ago 1962 The largest number of participants and spectators in the annual Halloween parade sponsored by Delphos Junior Chamber of Commerce turned out Wednesday night. Top award went to a unit composed of Lonna Grewe, Linda Klausing, Mary Pothast and Kay Neumeier who masqueraded as the Flintstones. Guest night was observed by members of Psi Chapter, Alpha Delta Omega national sorority at a Halloween party held Oct. 30 at the home of Diana Hammons. Highlight of the evening was a scavenger hunt won by Connie Wieging and Jo Gladen. The prize for the most original costume was won by Sally Kiggins, who dressed as a Christmas package. Mrs. Orion Byrne entertained members of the Ottoville Pinochle Club Tuesday evening with first prize being awarded to Mrs. Carl Greulich, second to Helena Perrin and low to Mrs. Elmer Schmitt. Mrs. Joseph Honigford received the traveling prize. Mrs. Robert Fortener will entertain the club in two weeks. 75 Years Ago 1937 A party of five local sportsmen will leave Delphos Tuesday morning to spend ten days in the province of Ontario, Canada, hunting deer. In the party will be Ed. Auer, Frank Baldauf, Mr. Bohlein, Roman Williams and Raymond Upperman. Several of these men have been making annual pilgrimages to hunt deer in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Canada. In an effort to bring the foul shooting average of the Jefferson High School basketball squad to 500 percent or better per man, a contest is being held weekly and will continue throughout the basketball season. Beginning last week the foul shooting contest was held on three nights. The best score made in any one day was by Eugene Mericle who dropped in 15 of 20 shoots.

IT WAS NEWS THEN

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) A tribal newspaper in Arizona is publishing a detailed voter guide for the first time ever. A New Mexico pueblo is sending kindergartners home with get-out-thevote buttons for their parents. Tribes in Wisconsin are reaching out to young adults with a Rock the Vote event. Native American communities nationwide are working hard to tap about 3 million Native American voters, hoping to turn around low voter participation that has persisted in Indian Country for decades. The push is being headed by the National Congress of American Indians, the largest group representing Native Americans, which calls low turnout a civic emergency fueled by everything from language barriers and vast distances between polling places to high unemployment and poverty. As we look at why our vote is so important, our political activism really is aimed at making sure that we can address critical concerns in our communities, said NCAI executive director Jacqueline Johnson Pata. The NCAI and its partners are focusing on 18 states with high Indian populations, and their efforts are not without challenge. The NCAI said in a recent report that voter ID laws could negatively affect participation this year in Native American and Alaska Native communities in 10 states Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Washington. For example, in Alaska and Florida, tribal ID cards are not listed as acceptable forms of identification at the polls. In other states, address requirements pose difficulty for those tribal communities that lack street addresses.

VP Ryan? Prof. Ryan GOP nominees future unclear

JANESVILLE, Wis. Professor Ryan? Lobbyist Ryan? Maybe back to plainold Congressman Ryan or future President Ryan? If Paul Ryan loses his bid to become vice president, he is still a man with options. The wonky chairman of the House Budget Committee is one of the Republicans best voices in explaining fiscal issues. Should Mitt Romneys presidential bid fail, Ryan will be a much-sought-after figure in political and business circles. Even in failure, the 42-yearold Wisconsin natives best days might be ahead of him. I refer to Paul Ryan as the Paul Revere of the next generation, said Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who was chairman of the House Budget Committee when Ryan was an aide there. I tell you, hes just getting started, Kasich said of Ryan before a recent rally in Ohio. Hes getting started in the process of helping America and building a much stronger America. That could be through public education or lobbying, back in his day job as a congressman or biding his time until a presidential run of his own. Unlike his Democratic counterpart, 69-year-old Joe Biden, Ryan is nowhere near retirement; a Biden loss would probably send him home to Delaware. Publicly, Ryan and his closest allies maintain that momentum is behind the Romney-Ryan ticket. They arent entertaining any talk about anything different from Ryan settling into the vice presidents residence in January. Ryan already has met once with Mike Leavitt, the former health and human services secretary who is building a government-in-waiting for a Romney administration, Ryan advisers said. But Ryans biggest boosters realize he probably can write his own ticket, win or lose on Nov. 6. These Ryan allies spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private proposals they were preparing for Ryan. They insist Ryan himself is not worried about anything beyond the election and is not planning anything except being a governing partner to Romney. They say that if he fails,

servicers will be allowed to reduce the monthly payments of affected homeowners or require no payments from them temporarily. Across U.S. industries, disruptions will slow the economy temporarily. Some restaurants and stores will draw fewer customers. Factories may shut down or shorten shifts because of a drop in customer demand. Some of those losses wont be easily made up. Restaurants that lose two or three days of business, for example, wont necessarily experience a rebound later. And money spent to repair a home may lead to less spending elsewhere. With some roads in the Northeast impassable after the storm, drivers wont be filling up as much. That will slow demand for gasoline. Pump prices, which had been declining before the storm, will likely keep slipping. The national average for a gallon of regular fell by about a penny Tuesday, to $3.53 more than 11 cents lower than a week ago. Shipping and business travel has been suspended in areas of the Northeast. More than 15,000 flights across the Northeast and the world have been grounded, and it will take days for some passengers to get where theyre going. Ryans instincts will be to return to the House he is running for re-election to his House seat at the same time hes Romneys running mate and resume his role as the head of the Budget Committee. He would go back to the gym with his workout buddies fellow congressmen, mostly and reclaim the healthy lifestyle that is much more difficult to maintain during a national political campaign. Senior Republicans caution it might not be that easy. If Romney loses, Ryan will be seen as one of the leading White House contenders in 2016. He will be a national party figure even without being a top member of the House leadership. That could breed resentment among current Republican leaders and perhaps splinter coalitions within the already fractured GOP alliances at the top of the House. A return also would make Ryan a leading target for Democrats. For the next few years, Democrats would lay traps in legislation, forcing him to take sides on measures that could come back to haunt him during a presidential bid.

Justices: Do drug-sniffing dogs pass smell test?

By JESSE J. HOLLAND The Associated Press WASHINGTON Can you trust what a dogs nose knows? Police do, but the Supreme Court considered Wednesday curbing the use of drug-sniffing dogs in investigations following complaints of illegal searches and insufficient proof of the dogs reliability. Justices seemed concerned about allowing police to bring their narcotic-detecting dogs to sniff around the outside of homes without a warrant and seemed willing to allow defense attorneys to question at trial how well drug dogs have been trained and how well they have been doing their job in the field. Dogs make mistakes. Dogs err, lawyer Glen P. Gifford told the justices. Dogs get excited and will alert to things like tennis balls in trunks or animals, that sort of thing. But Justice Department lawyer Joseph R. Palmore warned justices not to let the questioning of dog skills go too far, because they also are used to detect bombs, protect federal officials and in search and rescue operations. I think its critical ... that the courts not constitutionalize dog training methodologies or hold mini-trials with expert witnesses on what makes for a successful dog training program, he said. There are 32 K-9 teams in the field right now in New York and New Jersey looking for survivors of Hurricane Sandy, Palmore added. So, in situation after situation, the government has in a sense put its money where its mouth is, and it believes at an institutional level that these dogs are quite reliable. The arguments on Wednesday revolved around the work of Franky and Aldo, two drug-sniffing dogs used by police departments in Florida. Frankys case arose from the December 2006 arrest of Joelis Jardines at a Miamiarea house where 179 marijuana plants were confiscated. Miami-Dade police officers obtained a search warrant after Franky detected the odor of pot from outside the front door. The trial judge agreed with Jardines attorney that the dogs sniff was an unconstitutional intrusion into the home and threw out the evidence. A Florida appeals court reversed that ruling, but the state Supreme Court sided with the original judge. The Florida Supreme Court also threw out work done by Aldo, a drug-sniffing dog used by the Liberty County sheriff. Aldo alerted his officer to the scent of drugs used to make methamphetamine inside a truck during a 2006 traffic stop, and Clayton Harris was arrested. But two months later, Harris was stopped again. Aldo again alerted his officer to the presence of drugs, but none were found. The Florida Supreme Court justices ruled that saying a drug dog has been trained and certified to detect narcotics is not enough to establish the dogs reliability in court. The state of Florida appealed both cases to the Supreme Court. Harris lawyer Gifford asked the court to uphold the ruling against Aldo and require police to provide proof that the dog is able to do its job correctly. There is no canine exception to the totality of the circumstances test for probable cause to conduct a warrantless search, Gifford said. If that is true, as it must be, any fact that bears on a dogs reliability as a detector of the presence of drugs comes within the purview of the courts. Lawyer Gregory Garre, who represented the state of Florida in both cases, said they shouldnt have to prove what kind of training and classes Aldo had, the same way that when an officer provides evidence for a search warrant, we dont demand the training of the officer, what schools he went to or what

specific courses he had in probable cause. In Frankys case, Garre argued that since it wouldnt be illegal for a police officer to sniff for marijuana outside a door, it shouldnt be illegal for a dog like Franky to do the same thing. If thats true, said Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, then police could just walk down a street with drug-sniffing dogs in a neighborhood thats known to be a drug-dealing neighborhood, just go down the street, have the dog sniff in front of every door, or go into an apartment building? I gather that that is your position. Your Honor, they could do that, Garre said. But if someone invented a machine called the smello-matic that could do the same thing as Franky, police would not be able to use it outside of doors without a warrant, Justice Elena Kagan said. Police arent allowed to use technology to see inside a persons closed-up home without a warrant, argued Howard K. Blumberg, the lawyer for defendant Joelis Jardines. And the use of Franky outside the house I would submit that would basically be the same thing as a police officer walking up and down the street with a thermal imager thats turned on, Blumberg said.

Bobcats follow title with a perfect season

By RUSTY MILLER The Associated Press Now Creston Norwayne wants to prove that last year wasnt a fluke. A year after winning the schools first state championship, the Bobcats completed their first 10-0 regular season and did it with an exclamation point. In a showdown of teams unbeaten in the Wayne County Athletic League, Norwayne led 21-0 after a quarter and 55-0 at the half on the way to a 64-0 victory over West Salem Northwestern (8-2). We had a special year last year and going 10-0 this year and winning the outright league championship already makes this a special year, said Norwayne coach Joe Harbour. Playoffs are like a whole new season, but we have the potential to do what we did last year. The Bobcats, who again play Northwestern this week, are again back in the Division IV playoffs.
STREAK SEASONS: According to stats provided by high-school expert Dick Stevens, Ohios longest standing losing skids belong to Toledo Woodward (54), Westerville North (45) and Millersport (37), while Kirtland has won 35 consecutive regular-season games, Covington 33 and Lima Central Catholic and Toledo Whitmer 28 each; the regular season ended with 35 undefeated teams and 37 winless ones; and Cincinnati Moeller is making its 31st foray into the playoffs, one more than Ironton. There are seven schools making their first appearance in this years playoffs: Cleveland John Hay, North Robinson Colonel Crawford, Liberty Township Lakota East, Zanesville Maysville, Ashtabula Edgewood, Dayton Christian and New Lebanon Dixie.

Keselowski standing in Johnsons way of 6th title

By JENNA FRYER The Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. Denny Hamlin has conceded his championship chances and Clint Bowyer and Kasey Kahne are fading fast. So whats stopping Jimmie Johnson from cruising to a sixth NASCAR championship? Brad Keselowski. Johnsons win last weekend at Martinsville pushed him into the points lead with three races remaining in the Chase for the Sprint Cup Championship. His margin is just two points over Keselowski, who has given no indication hes not going to fight all the way to the Nov. 18 season finale. We like our role in this Chase, Keselowski said. While we arent being overlooked by any means, there are many who think that we are still too young of a team to seriously challenge the 48 team. We like it that way. In reality, we are a very good race team that is primed to take this fight right down to the last lap at Homestead-Miami Speedway next month. The next stop is Sundays race at Texas Motor Speedway, where Johnson has a statistical edge. The 5-time champion won at Texas in 2007 and has 13 top-10 finishes in 18 career starts. Keselowski has had some challenges there, with a best finish of 14th in eight career starts. Hes led only 34 laps, too. But he had a good car there in Aprils long fuel-mileage race and has no reason to believe Penske Racing isnt sending him back with another strong No. 2 Dodge. We had an awesome

car in April at Texas, probably the best car Ive ever had there, he said. But fuel issues kept us from challenging for the win. This weekend, Im expecting to challenge for the win. Its not a must-win situation, largely because Keselowski and crew chief Paul Wolfe salvaged last weekend at Martinsville. A poor qualifying effort put him 32nd on the starting grid, with Johnson on the pole. Still, Keselowski found himself in position for a solid finish when the caution waved 23 laps from the finish. He was sixth, with 18 cars on the lead lap, and unsure how strategy might play out. Keselowski asked Wolfe if he could make the call whether or not to pit instead of leaving the decision to the crew chief. Wolfe deferred to the driver, who at the last second stayed out as 16 cars headed for pit road. It allowed Keselowski to lead a lap, picking up a bonus point for doing so, and hang on for a sixth-place finish. Wolfe said he gives his opinion in those situations but trusts the driver to make the

correct call. Brad studies the sport, he understands whats going on and I think there are only a few guys in the garage that do that, Wolfe explained. I think if you didnt have a guy that understood what was going on with his race car, I think those calls could be a lot more risky. He understands whats going on. It helped Wolfe keep the No. 2 team within its goal, which was to remain 10 points within Johnson after Martinsville. I dont think were hanging around, Wolfe added. I think weve shown growth in this team and weve shown improvement from the beginning of the season. We were lacking speed earlier in the season. We were able to run well get good finishes and win some races but we didnt have dominant racecars. We continued to work on our stuff and as we got closer to the Chase and weve been in the Chase, there have been tracks where weve been dominant or as good as anybody here. Keselowskis been good this season at 1.5-mile superspeedways, which could give him an edge in two of the final three races. Texas and Homestead are intermediate tracks, with 1-mile Phoenix sandwiched in between. I feel like our cars have been really strong at ... the high fall-off, mile-and-ahalves where the pace drops significantly (during a fuel run), Keselowski added. See JOHNSON, page 7

NBA GLANCE

Region 24. MUCH LIGHTER: Woosters onfield celebration after a 34-7 win over Orrville showed how heavy the weight of The Streak had been. With QB Cam Daugherty and WR James Preston hooking up for three first-half TDs, the Generals (3-7) built a big lead and then ended what had been a 7-game losing streak in the rivalry, played for the 102nd time on Saturday night. Oh my God, this is like a 100,000pound weight off of my back, Wooster senior Mason Tomblin said after the victory, the Generals first over Orrville since 2004. My whole familys from Orrville and even my Grandma yelled at me about ending the streak, and we finally did it. NO DEFENSE ALLOWED: The teams combined for 54 first downs and 1,155 total yards in Mineral Ridges 54-53 overtime victory against Hanoverton United. Mineral Ridges Devine Redding had 266 yards and five TDs on 14 carries, while United QB Garrett Beech ran for a schoolrecord 301 yards and five TDs on 28 carries and passed for 144 yards and two more scores. Each team had more than 400 yards rushing as United set school records with 34 first downs and 614 total yards. SO MUCH FOR THE PREVENT: Glouster Trimble came close to a seventh shutout in a row against Stewart Federal Hocking. The Tomcats led 41-0 in the closing minutes. Federal Hocking was able to score on a 53-yard touchdown with 35 seconds left to deny Trimble the shutout. The score ended Trimbles streak of shutouts at six. It was the first points the Tomcats had given up since a 74-6 win in Week 3. Trimble didnt give up a point in the second half after a Week 2 loss. Trimble only gave up 51 points on the season and finished 9-1 for the first time since 2005.

The world of sports JIM METCALFE has had its peculiarities over the years: its own language and idioms, its funny characters, its shady people, its great sto- jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com ries and its dark side. I thought I had relatively speaking seen it all in my ... 48 years. As my friend Lee Corso loves to observe when on College Game Day, not so fast, my friend. This one is all over the Internet and it stinks. It seems that the Broward County Sheriffs Office spurred on by information supplied by ESPN has been investigating a gambling ring regarding youth tackle football games. It seems that parents and even coaches were gambling on these games. These werent hey, Ill bet a Pepsi (or a dinner) that my kids team beats yours wagers but the figure of $100,000 on one championship game was mentioned in the report. Nine adults have been arrested after an 18-month investigation. What in the name of (pick your public figure) is going on here? This takes the cake until something else even stupider comes along. And we wonder why sports has become TOO big for its britches when this stuff is going on. And our kids are under more and more stress to do whatever it takes to succeed! This story is along the same vein not gambling about football, or, in the wishes of a retired New Hampshire doctor, the hoped-for lack of it soon. It seems that Dr. Paul Butler, a member of the Dover School Board, is asking for the end of high school football due to the participants being too young. He cites what he deems mounting evidence that this is TOO dangerous of a game for children: high school on down to pee-wee levels. I believe I wrote about this a few months ago, about what I figured was going to happen with all the concern about head and neck injuries; a move to get rid of football. This is the place to start. If you dont have kids playing the game, soon colleges wont have anyone to recruit or else they are going to have a much less advanced game because they will have to start from scratch when they bring in freshmen and so on up the ladder to professional football. I dont deny there are legit concerns about concussions and so forth but kids want to play the game and coaches are now more than ever I hope they always were committed to teaching more proper techniques. You can make arguments that ANY sport is dangerous pitchers getting killed on batted balls right back at them comes to mind, or concussions from heading soccer balls. Or players getting hit with golf balls. Heck, even injuries to cross country runners are not uncommon, though they may not be concussions. There are some reports I have read its been a few years, though that runners face their own set of concerns. There is mounting evidence of these issues as well. Should we ban ALL of sports because of these risks and turn these kids into couch potatoes? Oh, I forgot; that is another issue we could get into with the growing obesity problem America is facing. I dont want to see that and I dont believe Dr. Butler would, either. Seriously, I would like to know what he thinks we should replace football with that he finds an acceptable risk. No joke. Listen, we cannot take risk entirely out of life, try as we might. It seems that even with all the concerns about injuries on the football field, more and more youth are playing. When you read about even the ex-players suing the NFL, claiming The League lied to them about concussions, saying they would still play the game and those still doing so despite the ravages to their bodies: Brian Urlacher of Da Bears is playing with an arthritic back, as an example one has to wonder. The NFL is leading the way in helping make the game safer as much as possible and even someone like notorious Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison is realizing he needs to be proactive about protecting himself. After suffering a number of concussions or concussion-like symptoms from hits he began using a special layer of padding inside his helmet last fall, the CRT padding developed by Unequal Technologies. By the way, it was designed for the US military. We shall see what happens, wont we?

Meyer fine with more severe NCAA sanctions

COLUMBUS Whats brewing with the 2012 Ohio State Buckeyes ... The Associated Press
Asked why he thought the new legislation would work, Meyer replied, Throughout history, the only way to keep civilization (in order) and to keep things in order is to have very strong rules and enforce them. Theres no other way. Very strong rules. Clear rules with very firm and swift it has to be a little bit more swift punishment. Ohio State had to vacate the 2010 seasons records, repay bowl revenue, go on NCAA probation, revise its enforcement procedures, reduce scholarships and face a bowl ban after this season as a result of violations which occurred on the watch of former coach Jim Tressel. THE LINE: The latest betting line on the Illinois-Ohio State game has the Buckeyes favored by 27.5 points. NOTE THIS: Illinois has turned the ball over 20 times, resulting in 12 touchdowns and 2 field goals. ... Ohio State QB Braxton Miller has run or passed for at least 20 yards on 33 plays; Illinois QB Nathan Scheelhaase, who did miss a couple games to injury, has 14 such gains. ... The Illini are dead last in Big Ten games in scoring, total offense, kickoff returns, punt returns, field goals, sacks against and first downs. ... During Saturdays game (3:30 p.m. start), Ohio State will observe Military Appreciation Day. FEWER FANS: Illinois is drawing an average of 46,013 fans over its first five home games, roughly 25 percent under Memorial Stadiums capacity of 60,670. The Illini are 2-3 at home, including a 31-17 drubbing at the hands of lowly Indiana in their homecoming game on Saturday. With upcoming dates remaining against less-than-marquee opponents Minnesota and Purdue on Nov. 10 and 17 and the weather worsening, the average turnout will undoubtedly plummet. Coach Tim Beckman said its all comes down to success on the field. Of course wed love to have Memorial Stadium sold out each and every week, he said. But I cant help but think that has a lot to do with the winning and the losing. We have to right now concentrate on how we can win football games and how we can improve ourselves and how we can do those things as a football family first. Of course, that will all end up building the attendance. IN THE ROARING 20s: Ohio State and Boston College have scheduled a home-andhome football series for the 2020 and 2021 seasons. The games are scheduled to be played Sept. 19, 2020 (Columbus) and Sept. 18, 2021 (Chestnut

Hill). Each year, Ohio State plays Oregon a week earlier. Boston College is a fine program from an outstanding (Atlantic Coast) conference, said Ohio State AD Gene Smith. This gives Ohio State fans a chance to watch their Buckeyes in back-to-back games against Pacific 12 and ACC schools. The Buckeyes have won all three previous meetings with Boston College: 34-29 in 1989 at Ohio Stadium; 31-10 in 1990 at Alumni Stadium in Chestnut Hill; and 38-6 in the 1995 Kickoff Classic in East Rutherford, N.J. Ohio State also announced a change to a previously-revealed series with North Carolina. The game set for Sept. 5, 2015, has been moved to Sept. 22, 2018, at Ohio Stadium. There is no change to the game set for Sept. 23, 2017, in Chapel Hill, N.C. We worked in collaboration with UNC on moving the initial game in this series, Smith added. They were in need of a scheduling change and we were in a position where we could help. This new date works well with what we are doing in regard to strengthening our non-conference games from 2018 and beyond. Ohio States 2018 non-conference schedule now includes consecutive games against Big East foe Cincinnati (Sept. 8), at Big 12 member TCU (Sept. 15) and the ACCs North Carolina (Sept. 22).

NASCAR doesnt approve Nur Ali to race at Texas: Nur Ali was not approved by NASCAR to run the Nationwide Series race this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. Ali struggled in his Oct. 20 NASCAR debut at Kansas, where he crashed and finished 33rd in the Nationwide race. He is the first driver of Pakistani descent to compete at NASCARs national level. The Fort Worth resident had hoped to drive for Rick Ware Racing in Saturdays race at Texas. But he announced

NASCAR wants him to gain more experience on smaller tracks before hell be approved to compete at 1.5-mile Texas. Ali added hell enter the Nov. 10 race at Phoenix, which is a 1-mile track. Simona de Silvestro signs with KV Racing for 2013: Simona de Silvestro may get a chance to find out what she can accomplish in a race car with better equipment. KV Racing Technology announced Tuesday it had signed the 24-year-old Swiss driver and will have a 2-car operation with Tony Kanaan. It will be the first time de Silvestro will have a teammate in IndyCar, where she has spent the last three seasons driving for single-car team HVM Racing. I think its going to be great having Tony as a teammate, she said. Its never easy to make a change like this but Im confident that its the right move for me going forward.

The Associated Press NEW YORK The Knicks-Nets game that was scheduled for tonight at the new Barclays Center in Brooklyn has been postponed at Mayor Michael Bloombergs request after damage from Hurricane Sandy. Though the NBA said Tuesday night the game would go on as planned, Bloomberg asked the league to call it off. The Barclays Center sits above a subway station and commuter rail terminal and with most of mass transit still out in New York, transportation to the game would have been difficult. RUNNING NEW YORK The New York City Marathon is a go for Sunday and while logistical questions persist one thing is certain: The 26-mile route will have a disaster for a backdrop. Race organizers were still trying to assess how widespread damage from Superstorm Sandy might affect plans, including getting runners into the city and transporting them to the start line on Staten Island. Easing their worries a bit was news that 14 of the citys 23 subway lines were expected to be

operating by this morning though none below 34th Street, an area that includes the terminal for the ferries that go to the island. PENN STATE HARRISBURG, Pa. Former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky was sent to serve his child molestation prison sentence at an institution in far southwestern Pennsylvania that includes most of the states death row inmates. The Corrections Department said Sandusky was transferred to Greene State Prison after being evaluated at a facility outside Harrisburg. Prison officials added he will be housed in protective custody. BASEBALL Rafael Soriano is poised to leave the New York Yankees, Ervin Santana is headed to Kansas City and Ryan Ludwick plans to test the open market. Soriano opted out of the final year of his $35 million, three-year contract and will likely seek a long-term deal in free agency. The right-hander had 42 saves for the Yankees last season after longtime closer Mariano Rivera tore

She will drive the No. 78 next season with sponsorship from the Nuclear Clean Air Energy campaign and got her first laps in the car Monday during a test at Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama. Her move to KV Racing gives de Silvestro a Chevrolet engine next season after she labored through 2012 with an underpowered Lotus driving for Keith Wiggins at HVM. The engine situation handcuffed the team all season and de Silvestro only completed 45 percent of the laps. I do want to thank Keith and HVM Racing for helping me gain a ton of experience these last three years, she added. Even though we struggled last year with our engine, I learned a lot. Now its time to move on and look forward to next season. KV Racing also announced that Imran Safiulla had joined as a team principal. Safiulla has supported de Silvestros racing since 2006 and joins an owner-

ship group that includes Kevin Kalkhoven and former champion Jimmy Vasser. We are delighted to announce Simona to KV, said Vasser. She has shown a lot of determination and to now be able to work with someone as experienced as Kanaan will be a huge asset for her. KV expects to test with de Silvestro at Texas and Sebring before the end of the year. The team is trying to rebound from a disappointing 2012 in which it failed to live up to expectations after signing former Formula One star Rubens Barrichello during the offseason. Kanaan had three podium finishes all season, although one was a third-place finish in the Indianapolis 500, and Barrichello had a season-high finish of fourth at Sonoma. Neither Barrichello or E.J. Viso are returning to the team next season and there had been speculation that KV Racing would be a 1-car organization in 2013.

knee ligaments in early May. The Royals made their first move toward shoring up their shaky rotation, acquiring Santana from the Los Angeles Angels for minor league reliever Brandon Sisk. Santana was an All-Star in 2008 and threw a no-hitter in 2011, but struggled with the long ball this year. The Royals declined their $8 million club option on closer Joakim Soria after he had elbow ligament-replacement surgery and missed last season. Soria will receive a $750,000 buyout. All-Stars David Wright ($16 million) and R.A. Dickey ($5 million) had their contract options picked up by the New York Mets. Tampa Bay exercised options on pitcher James Shields ($9.5 million), closer Fernando Rodney ($2.5 million) and catcher Jose Molina ($1.5 million). The Rays declined a $6 million option on designated hitter Luke Scott, instead paying him a $1 million buyout. Ludwick and Cincinnati Reds teammate Ryan Madson became free agents when they declined mutual contract options.

Multiple uses for pantyhose

Hosiery gets snags and tears pretty easily. While a snag or tear doesnt always make them unwearable, most of the time, they go straight to the trashcan. Instead of throwing them away, they can be used around your home. Here are some suggestions: Skin exfoliant: Rather than spending money on a costly skincare product, go natural. One reader, Lori from Illinois, suggests: Cut a leg off of a pair of pantyhose or knee-highs and fill the foot part with equal parts baking soda and brown sugar. Tie the end. Double the pantyhose thickness to make sure the ingredients dont seep out too fast. Wet the skin and, if you want, lightly lather with a body shampoo, soap or olive oil. Use the nylons as a loofah and gently scrub your skin. Afterward, apply a light moisturizer. Along the same lines, you can wad a section into a ball and use as a little scouring pad for cleaning. Deodorize shoes: Pour some litter into a pair of socks or cut sections of hosiery. Place the litter tubes in your shoes to absorb odors. This works well to keep moisture away from camping gear, such as tents and sleeping bags, too. Store onions: Drop an onion in, tie a knot above it, drop another onion in and repeat with a knot, and so on. Then hang them. This keeps them separated while allowing plenty of air circulation. One reader, H.M. From Michigan, shares: Garlic bulbs wont sprout if tied up in pantyhose. Mr. Grass Head: Make your own mock Chia Pet. The only supplies needed are a section of stocking, grass seeds, potting soil, a baby food jar and some wiggly eyes. For directions, visit frugalvillage.com/2005/12/08/ frugal-winter-fun-with-kids. Skimmer: Use a rubber band to attach a piece of pantyhose over the end of your vacuum, then go over an area where you dropped a small object. It will get picked up without getting sucked into your vacuum. Another reader, Darlene from New York, shares: My mom used to make bug and leaf skimmers out of panty hose for our kiddie pools. Shed take a wire coat hanger and bend it into the shape she wanted, then slip it into the pantyhose and tie it. Indoor tennis: Make a game by stretching cut legs of stockings over wire hangers bent into circles to make tennis rackets. Hit balloons back and forth with your homemade rackets. Soap slivers: Place soap slivers in a section of hosiery and attach it to your bathroom faucet for cleaning up, or hang it near your outside faucet for washing up after working in the garden. Speaking of gardens, use a small portion of pantyhose to line flowerpots so water can drain out but dirt wont fall through the bottom, or cut the legs into rubber-band-like circles and use them to tie garden plants to stakes. Another reader, Sam from Ohio, shares: At our Girl Scout camp, they use laundry

detergent containers as handwashing stations. They put a small bar of soap in a section of panty hose and tie it onto a laundry detergent pump jug. Sachet: Add potpourri to a small section of pantyhose. Tie it off and place it in your closet or dresser. Gift wrap: Use strips to tie your wrapping paper so it doesnt unravel while its being stored. Another reader, Missy from Colorado, adds: You can put a roll of wrapping paper in each leg and hang them in the back of a closet to keep the paper from getting mangled throughout the year.

Tomorrows Horoscope
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2012 If youre alert, you should be able to find ways to generate a notable amount of additional income in the year ahead. It could come about from a current involvement that has profitable spin-off opportunities. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -Being idea-oriented could make your brainstorms superior to your usual thinking. However, it might be smart to write down your ideas, so that you dont forget any of them. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Two potentially rewarding developments could present themselves when youre dealing with others. Handle these opportunities wisely and youll be able to take advantage of both. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Youre not likely to have any trouble finding answers for critical questions that might arise. What might be problematic for you, however, is choosing which solution to use. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A little self-imposed pressure can enhance your productivity and industriousness. Dont hesitate to tackle several tasks simultaneously, because theyll push you to even more success. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -If you cant bring everyone together, divide your time between two close friends who are both bidding for your companionship. That way, no ones feelings will be hurt. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Give priority to a domestic matter that is currently giving you fits. Manipulate what you must in order to achieve the outcome that would serve everyone the best. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- This is one of those days in which conversations with close friends arent likely to be comprised of idle chatter. Ideas of consequence are more apt to be discussed, so pay attention. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -It behooves you to take the time to evaluate your present position and put your financial house in order. Making an in-depth analysis could reveal many buried opportunities. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -Unless you have a variety of activities and assignments from which to choose, youre likely to find yourself extremely restless and bored. Plan a busy agenda. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Blending your intuitive perceptions with your logical ones could add an effective dimension to your thought processes. You can be dynamite when you use all of your gifts. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -When involved commercially with friends, make your social relationship with them paramount over the business side of things. Good friends are harder to come by than entrepreneurial partners. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Flexibility and willingness to change tactics as events dictate are just as important as trying to achieve an objective that you feel is personally important. Make sure you have your priorities straight.

The largest gathering of FFA members recently took place and 26 Delphos FFA members were part of it. More than 55,000 members gathered for the National FFA Convention Oct. 24-27 in Indianapolis. The purpose of this convention is to gather FFA members from across the nation to celebrate the achievements that have been made of the past year, broaden the horizons of members by exposing them to new places, and motivate them to continue to reach their goals. Delphos FFA members boarded a charter bus on Wednesday morning with the Paulding and Wayne Trace FFA chapters. The first stop was a tour of a Kettle Kreations, a division of Bob Evans Farms, then toured Top Cut Genetics in Farmland, Ind., and finished with Umbarger Feeds Inc, in Bargersville, Ind. That evening, the group enjoyed a country concert put on by The Band Perry and Bradley Gilbert. They attended their first leadership session the next morning, which was highlighted by skater and past Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Hamilton as he shared his life changing experiences and had motivational words of wisdom. They also had the opportunity to visit the Career Show at convention, tour Caito Foods and that evening for recreation, they went to a haunted woods, go-kart track and putt putt golf course. On Friday morning, they attend-
