Today is Friday, Sept. 6, the 249th day of
2013. There are 116 days left in the year.
Todays Highlight in History:
On September 6, 1901, President William
McKinley was shot and mortally wounded by
anarchist Leon Czolgosz at the Pan-American
Exposition in Buffalo, N.Y. (McKinley died
eight days later; Czolgosz was executed on
October 29.)
On this date:
In 1861, Union forces led by Gen. Ulysses
S. Grant occupied Paducah, Ky., during the
Civil War.
In 1888, diplomat and financier Joseph P.
Kennedy, Sr. was born in Boston.
In 1916, the first self-service grocery store,
Piggly Wiggly, was opened in Memphis, Tenn.,
by Clarence Saunders.
In 1939, the Union of South Africa declared
war on Germany.
In 1943, 79 people were killed when a
New York-bound Pennsylvania Railroad train
derailed and crashed in Philadelphia.
In 1952, Canadian television broadcasting
began in Montreal.
In 1966, South African Prime Minister
Hendrik Verwoerd was stabbed to death by an
apparently deranged page during a parliamen-
tary session in Cape Town.
In 1970, Palestinian guerrillas seized con-
trol of three U.S.-bound jetliners. (Two were
later blown up on the ground in Jordan,
along with a London-bound plane hijacked on
September 9; the fourth plane was destroyed
on the ground in Egypt. No hostages were
harmed.)
In 1985, all 31 people aboard a Midwest
Express Airlines DC-9 were killed when the
Atlanta-bound jetliner crashed just after take-
off from Milwaukees Mitchell Field.
In 1991, the Soviet Union recognized
the independence of Lithuania, Latvia and
Estonia. Russian lawmakers upheld a decision
by residents of Leningrad to restore the citys
pre-revolutionary name, St. Petersburg.
In 1997, a public funeral was held for
Princess Diana at Westminster Abbey in
London, six days after her death in a car crash
in Paris.
In 2002, meeting outside Washington, D.C.
for only the second time since 1800, Congress
convened in New York to pay homage to the
victims and heroes of September 11.
Ten years ago: Mahmoud Abbas resigned
as Palestinian prime minister. In the U.S.
Open, Justine Henin-Hardenne won the all-
Belgian womens singles final, beating fellow
countrywoman Kim Clijsters, 7-5, 6-1.
Five years ago: In the wake of Russias
military standoff with Georgia, Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice said that now was not
the right time for the U.S. to move forward
on a once-celebrated deal for civilian nuclear
cooperation with Russia. (President George
W. Bush canceled the deal two days later.)
More than 100 people died in a rockslide that
crashed into a shantytown just outside Cairo,
Egypt. Actress Anita Page died in Los Angeles
at age 98.
One year ago: President Barack Obama
conceded only halting progress toward solving
the nations economic woes, but vowed in a
Democratic National Convention finale, Our
problems can be solved, our challenges can
be met. Drew Peterson, the former Illinois
police officer whod gained notoriety after his
much-younger wife, Stacy, vanished in 2007,
was convicted of murdering a previous wife,
Kathleen Savio. (Peterson was later sentenced
to 38 years in prison.) Rihanna won video of

healthier employees equal less
injuries and incidents; and pro-
moting a culture of wellness.
The summit is hosted by

The Affordable Care Act
has fundamentally changed
the way that healthcare provid-
ers are paid for their services.
Reimbursement now involves
incentives for keeping people
healthy and out of the hos-
pital, plus monetary penal-
ties for admissions that were
potentially avoidable, as well
as unplanned re-admissions.
Individuals spend half of their
waking hours in the workplace,
with 60 percent not achiev-
ing their daily required fitness
activity or making healthy
food and beverage choices.
Employees health is at the core
of an organizations effective-
ness. This workshop will help
to provide answers on how we
can work together to provide
good health for all.
WCORHA is a network of
community hospitals working
together to improve the qual-
ity and cost-effectiveness of

Van Wert County offers
early childhood screenings
VAN WERT Developmental screenings for chil-
dren birth to age 5 will be offered to residents of the fol-
lowing school districts in Van Wert County: Crestview,
Delphos, Lincolnview, Parkway, Spencerville and Wayne
Trace. The screenings will be held at the Thomas Edison
Early Childhood Center Sept. 27. Screening hours are
8:30 a.m.noon. Appointments can be made by call-
ing Edison Early Childhood Center at 419-238-1514,
ext. 221, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
Monday through Friday.
Children will be assessed in the area of height,
weight, vision, hearing, language, cognition, gross and
fine motor, self-help and social-emotional skills. After
the screening, the results will be shared with the parent
or caregiver. This assessment provides families with an
opportunity to see how their child is progressing in rela-
tionship to children of the same age.
If your child displays an area of concern, further
assessment will be scheduled at your convenience. This
additional visit will let the teacher check for this delay
in a different play environment. If your child continues
to show a delay at this time, your child will be invited
to a play-based multi-factored evaluation session at the
Thomas Edison Early Childhood Center.
Our mission is to provide the families of Van Wert
County with the resources needed to help their children
develop to their maximum potential. Each child is unique
and capable of learning. Our goal is to work with and
support families in providing these active learning expe-
riences.
For more information, please feel free to contact the
Thomas Edison Early Childhood Center at 419-238-
1514, ext. 221.

Marian Thorncraft is looking forward
to her honeymoon with new hubby, Tyler.
She pictures someplace romantic, secluded
and cozy. No sooner have her feet touched
the ground after being carried over the
threshold than she discovers her love nest
is really a one-time mortuary! Graveside
Manor, as the locals call it, has been aban-
doned for years, mainly due to the rumors
of it being haunted. Cozy as a bat cave,
its about as secluded as Grand Central
Station. A daffy maid shows up to clean the
place and gets lost in the catacombs behind
the walls. This goes unnoticed because
Tyler is too busy ducking a female ghost
with a hatchet, three high-school kids try-
ing to set up a Halloween prank and his
wise-cracking female editor who once had
a crush on him. Throw in an absent-minded
cop and the escaped lunatic hes looking
for and the stage is set for a Honeymoon at
Graveside Manor.
Reservations for members open at 10
a.m. Sept. 16 and Sept. 18 for the general
public and are open daily. Reservations

State reviewing Ariel
Castros prison cell suicide
COLUMBUS (AP) The family of Cleveland kidnapper
Ariel Castro planned to claim his body Thursday as investiga-
tions sought to determine how a man who was perhaps Ohios
most notorious prisoner managed to hang himself with a bed-
sheet while in protective custody.
Castro was a month into his life sentence for holding three
women captive in his home for a decade when he committed
suicide Tuesday night.
Ohio prisons spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said two reviews
ordered Wednesday by Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and
Correction Director Gary Mohr were underway. One inquiry
will look into the suicide itself, and the other is examining
whether Castro received proper medical and mental health care
leading up the suicide.
She said Castros family members were claiming his body
from the coroners office Thursday.

TERRY MATTINGLY
On
Religion
Worship this
week
at the church
of your choice.
The German shepherds name was Trapper
and he came to St. Peters Anglican Church
with his owner, a newcomer at the historic
Toronto parish.
At the end of the Mass, Trapper went for-
ward with everyone else for Holy Communion.
Thats when the vicar, in what she later
described as a welcoming gesture, served
the dog some of the consecrated bread that
Anglicans believe has -- in a mysterious man-
ner -- become the body of Jesus Christ.
So one parishioner complained to the
bishop and, in a flash, critics online were quot-
ing Matthew 7:6: Do not give dogs what is
holy... The controversy -- this story had long
legs -- even reached BBC with the headline,
Canadian priest sorry for giving dog Holy
Communion.
It seems that strange and dramatic events
of this kind happen year after year in the
global Anglican Communion -- truly one of
Gods gifts to headline writers.
It appears unlikely this trend will change
anytime soon. Recently, in a burst of candor in
Mexico, the current Archbishop of Canterbury,
the Most Rev. Justin Welby, harkened back to
the English Civil War and quoted sobering
advice from Bishop Jeremy Taylor. Taylor was
under the patronage of Archbishop William
Laud when the latter was executed in 1645 by
the Puritan parliament.
Welby noted that Taylor
warned: It is unnatural and unreasonable to
persecute disagreeing opinions. ... Force in
matters of opinion can do no good, but is very
apt to do hurt.
These are hard words in an era in which
Englands shrinking flock of Anglicans is still
fighting over female bishops and, across the
Atlantic, the shrinking flock of Episcopalians
continues to fight over noncelibate gay bish-
ops. Meanwhile, leaders in the growing Global
South churches of Africa and Asia are calling
for repentance and doctrinal discipline.
During an Aug. 13 address in Monterrey,
Welby said he sometimes worries that
Anglicans are drifting back into a true civil
war of their own.
Not consciously, of course, but in an
unconscious way that is more dangerous. Like
a drunk man walking near the edge of a cliff,
we trip and totter and slip and wander, ever
nearer to the edge of the precipice, he said.
On one side is the steep fall into an
absence of any core beliefs, a chasm where we
lose touch with God, and thus we rely only on
ourselves and our own message. On the other
side there is a vast fall into a ravine of intoler-
ance and cruel exclusion. It is for those who
claim all truth, and exclude any who question.
When we fall into this place, we lose touch
with human beings and create a small church,
or rather many small churches -- divided, inef-
fective in serving the poor, the hungry and the
suffering, incapable of living with each other,
and incomprehensible to those outside the
church.
The problem? One bishops core beliefs
are anothers cruel dogmas. And, according to
Episcopal Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts
Schori, Christianity is entering another 500-
year cycle of doctrinal reform similar to that
of Martin Luther.
The major shifts of focus of these peri-
odic seismic events are profoundly unsettling
to many people, but they seem to be neces-
sary to Gods mission, she said in an Aug.
15 address at the national assembly of the
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America,
meeting in Pittsburgh.
Anger and fear caused by rapid politi-
cal and cultural changes have caused some
members of liberal Protestant flocks to flee,
said Jefferts Schori, whose denomination has
declined from 3.6 million members in 1965
to 1.9 million in 2011. In the tumultuous
past decade, average Sunday attendance has
declined nearly 25 percent, to roughly 650,000
Episcopalians.
Jefferts Schoris flock is also aging rapidly,
in part because -- as she boldly told The New
York Times in 2006 -- Episcopalians are bet-
ter-educated and tend to reproduce at lower
rates than Catholics and other believers and
because they pay attention to the stewardship
of the earth.
While others are seeing signs of peril, she
said, progressives must see progress, especial-
ly when fighting for gay rights, racial justice
and causes central to their faith.
The challenges that both our churches
have experienced around issues of inclusion of
all human beings in recent years have remind-
ed us that God is always at work -- on us,
within us, and among us, said Jefferts Schori.
Some have judged our smaller numbers as
faithlessness but it may actually be the Spirits
way of pruning for greater fruitfulness.

In the Waiting
Room ...
with Dr. Celeste Lopez
Whats for dinner?
My sons favorite cake has
always been carrot cake. He
wanted it for his birthday, he
wanted it for holidays and
whenever he saw it at the
store, he would ask for it. So
it surprised me when I asked
him if he wanted a slice of
carrot cake when I saw it on
a restaurant menu and he said
no. He said he didnt like
carrot cake anymore. I was
curious as to what caused this
sudden change.
I didnt know it had car-
rots in it, he informed me.
It is called carrot cake.
That might have given you a
clue.
I thought they called it
that because it had a frosting
carrot on it.
Really, well Im glad you
finally cracked their code. Ill
inform wikileaks of the break-
ing news.
It didnt matter to him
that it still tasted the same
as it always had. Once he
was aware that it actually con-
tained a gasp vegetable,
he no longer wanted it.
I can count on the fingers
of one hand the number of
vegetables that he will eat vol-
untarily, all other vegetables
are a negotiation. He believes
that if someone can give up
meat to become a vegetar-
ian, he should be able to give
up vegetables to become a
junkatarian. If it was up to him
he would subsist complete-
ly on chicken nuggets and
fruit loops (which despite the
name, doesnt actually con-
tain any fruit, so maybe I can
somewhat understand his car-
rot cake confusion).
I am not alone in the veg-
etable struggle. Many parents
are going through the same
struggles with their kids. It
isnt surprising really. The
taste buds of kids are overly
sensitive to bitter tastes so
foods that have a bit of a
bite to them are perceived as
distasteful, whereas a sweeter
taste is pleasant to them. It
is no surprise that the pre-
ferred vegetables of most
children are carrots (my son
not included), corn and peas,
which have a sweeter profile
than many vegetables.
You can often get around
this by preparing them with a
sweet sauce, such as a sweet
and sour stir-fry or using a
salad dressing for dipping.
Sweet potatoes are a good
vegetable that we often forget
about once they are off pureed
foods but kids often really
like them sliced with a glaze
or baked like French fries and
dipped into sauce. Cheese is
also a great way to make veg-
etables more palatable to the
picky eater, a fondue dinner
is a treat that most kids will
enjoy.
For those of you familiar
with the Food Network, you
will have seen various cook-
ing shows where the chef is
judged by food critics. I have
found that having a vegetable
challenge where all family
members who are capable of
cooking (even the little ones
can get into the act with some
help) are challenged to cook
a vegetable in the most tasty
way.
Advise them that you will
be having The Great Broccoli
Challenge this week and to
find their recipe. Everybody
gets to judge, make the prize
something fun like a golden
carrot that can be passed each
week to the subsequent winner
of the next challenge. Not sur-
prisingly, kids love the oppor-
tunity to grade their parents
and to beat them at various
challenges. Who knows you
might have the next Mario
Battali in your family.
Above all, dont fret too
much about their eating habits.
Their taste buds will mature
and they will become more
adventurous in their options.
In the meantime, encour-
age more fruits, perhaps add
a vitamin to their diet and
keep on offering various veg-
etables.
Remember, like everything
else, this too shall pass.

COLUMBUS The Ohio High
School Athletic Association board of
directors met Thursday for its reg-
ularly-scheduled September meeting.
The following are highlights from the
meeting. The complete set of meet-
ing minutes will be posted later at
OHSAA.org.
- The board reviewed the list of 30
schools that met the 2012-13 OHSAA
Respect the Game Challenge. Eighteen of those schools also
earned the Harold A. Meyer Award. The OHSAA will issue a
separate release today with the list of schools and description
of the awards.
- The girls and boys soccer regional tournament draws were
conducted and will be posted on the soccer pages at OHSAA.
org. Sectional draw/seed meetings will be held around the state
Oct. 6.
- The 2014 and 2015 girls and boys track and field divisional
alignments and representation were approved by the board and
are posted at: http://www.ohsaa.org/members/sptdivis13.htm
- Five schools were recently penalized for committing
infractions of OHSAA bylaws or sports regulations. The list
of schools, along with their infractions and penalties, is always
included in the complete meeting minutes.
- The baseball coaches association made two proposals.
First, to increase the number of playing dates that an individual
player is allowed to participate during the baseball regular sea-
son from 27 to 32. (Note this would not change the number of
team games permitted, which is 27.) Second, to expand tourna-
ment rosters from 18 players to 22. The board is expected to
vote on the proposals at its December meeting.
- The financial reports from the 2013 regional and state
baseball and softball and boys state tennis tournaments were
presented to the board. The baseball tournament saw a total
state tournament attendance of 15,152, which is the fourth-
highest all-time, and resulted in a net profit of $10,203. The
softball regional and state tournaments resulted in a loss of
$9,850, which included a total state tournament attendance of
6,630. The boys tennis state tournament saw a crowd of 1,141
and resulted in a loss of $5,674.
- The board approved a correction to the Division I girls
basketball tournament representation. Initially, Marietta High
School was incorrectly listed as a Division II school and
Chillicothe was listed as a Division I school. It has been cor-
rected (Marietta is Division I and Chillicothe is Division II) and
Marietta has been assigned to the Northeast District Athletic
Boards list of Division I schools for the sectional and district
tournaments. After recalculating the formula to determine the
number of regional qualifiers from each district, the addition of
one more school to the Northeast resulted in the Northeast gain-
ing one more Division I regional qualifier, while the Northwest
lost a Division I regional qualifier. Therefore, the 16 regional
qualifiers in Division I girls basketball will be comprised of the
following district champions: seven from the Northeast, one
from the Northwest, four from the Southwest and four from the
Central/East/Southeast combined district.
- The board approved the winter sports manuals. The manu-
als will be posted on the respective sports pages at OHSAA.
org.
- The board approved the 2013-14 OHSAA General Media
Regulations and a one-year extension with Impact Action
Sports Photographer to serve as the OHSAAs official state
tournament photographer.
Lady Jays hold off Wildcats in Shootout
By JIM METCALFE
Staff Writer
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
DELPHOS As one might have
expected from Thursdays yearly
Crosstown Shootout girls soccer tussle
between St. Johns and Jefferson, it wasnt
going to be a rout.
The host Lady Blue Jays dominated the
first half and the visiting Lady Wildcats
in the eyes of head coach Josiah Stober
came out with much more fight in the
second but in the end, the Jays held on for
a 2-1 triumph on a brilliant late-summer
afternoon/evening at the St. Johns Annex.
We knew Jefferson would come in
ready to play, so wed have to play well
for 80 minutes, especially at home. You
always have to play well at home, St.
Johns coach John Munoz said. We tried
some different combinations tonight than
normal; a few worked and a few didnt.
We can keep working on those things. We
keep getting better at the little things each
time out.
Stober wasnt so happy after his teams
first half.
We didnt come out with the effort
and intensity I felt we needed to play a
good team today. We struggle to put a
whole match together; we usually have
a good half and one not as good, Stober
explained. They got two quick goals on
us and we were fighting from behind the
whole time. Weve got some freshmen
that were plugging into key spots and its
a learning experience for them, as well as
everyone else.
After both teams tried to figure things
out for the first 10 minutes of the matchup,
the Jays (3-3-1) had the first good look of
the afternoon and made it pay off. Off a
corner kick from the right side (the Jays
held a 8-4 edge for the contest there),
senior Madison Kreeger booted a beauti-
ful pass to sophomore Erin Williams in the
middle of the 18-yard box. Her 1-touch
from 14 yards hit the left post and junior
Jefferson keeper Kayleigh OConner (11
saves versus 15 shots on goal) couldnt
grab it for a 1-0 lead at the 28-minute
mark.
Williams had two more good tries in
the first half: a 14-yarder at 23:40 that
OConner put the clamps on; and at 8:12,
when her shot off another corner kick was
deflected wide by a defender.

Pirates edge Musketeers in tough PCL tussle
By DAVE BONINSEGNA
DHI Correspondent
news@delphosherald.com
FORT JENNINGS Thursday nights Putnam County League
boys soccer match between the Fort Jennings Musketeers and the
Continental Pirates had everything you would expect out of a PCL
battle: physicality, intense play, a penalty kick and sportsmanship.
The Pirates got on the board once in each half and held on to
snag 2-1 victory.
Dallas Geckle and Derek Troyer scored the Continental goals,
while Troy Ricker delivered the lone score for the hosts.
The teams were evenly-matched for the most
part in the first 40 minutes with neither squad get-
ting much of a foothold early on.
Alex Vetter had a pair of saves (6 saves versus
9 shots on-goal) in the first 10 minutes for Fort
Jennings, with not much coming the way of Pirate
netkeeper Austin Mansfield (2 saves versus 6 shots
on-goal).
Aaron Neidert gave the hosts their first real
attempt with 18:44 to go in the first half but Mansfield turned the
shot away.
Geckle finally broke the scoreless tie at the 13:15 mark off a
ricochet shot that found its way to the right side of Vetter, making
it a 1-0 contest.
Kyle Maag had a pair of chances less than a minute apart; how-
ever, neither found the back of the net.
Vetter made a sliding save off a Zach Swartzman effort late in
the first half to keep the tally at 1-nil.
The second half was an entirely different match; the intensity
grew and the patience of the officials got shorter.
While the Pirates had the lead on the scoreboard, they were
chalking up a lead in yellow cards handed out. One would have
thought that Halloween came early because the men in yellow were
handing them out like candy.
There was even a red card issued and if not for the sportsman-
ship and honesty of Jennings coach Gregg Luthman, one of the
Pirates would have been out of the match and the next. Luthman
pointed out to the officials that the infraction was not against the
player in question; all was resolved and the Pirate player returned
to the match.
Continental controlled the field for the better part of the
second half and used it to its advantage when Troyer sent
the second ball past Vetter with 15:22 to go, making it a 2-0
Continental lead.
Despite not spending a lot of time in their offensive end,
the Musketeers caught a break with 12:10 left: a penalty
inside the 18 against the Pirates gave Troy Ricker a pen-
alty shot, 1-on-1 against Mansfield. Ricker kicked right,
Mansfield guessed left and just like that, Jennings was on
the board at 2-1.
However, the next 12 minutes-plus were spent in the Pirates
offensive end of the pitch with the hosts got getting another oppor-
tunity to score.
Continental controlled the corner kicks 6-2.
The Musketeers fall to 2-3-1 with the loss, while Continental
moves to 4-1-1.
The hosts (4-1-1) won the junior varsity match 2-0.

Southern Mississippi (0-1)
at No. 22 Nebraska (1-0), 6
p.m. (Big Ten Network)
Line: Nebraska by 28 1/2.
Series record: Nebraska 3-1.
WHATS AT STAKE
Nebraska surrendered 602
yards to Wyoming in the opener
and has given up 1,831 yards
in its last three games. The
Cornhuskers better get a han-
dle on whats wrong with their
defense or theyre going to have
a big problem against Brett
Hundley and UCLA next week.
Southern Mississippi is going
to be hard-pressed to end its
losing streak, now at 13 games,
with consecutive road games
against Nebraska, Arkansas and
Boise State.
KEY MATCHUP
Nebraska defensive line
vs. Southern Miss QB Allan
Bridgford. The Huskers contin-
ue to struggle when it comes to
pressuring quarterbacks. They
didnt sack Wyomings Brett
Smith even once. Bridgford is
an easier target. The transfer
from California has an NFL
arm but isnt mobile.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Southern Mississippi: WR
Rickey Bradley Jr., a junior-
college star who walked on in
2012 but failed to qualify aca-
demically. His 193 yards on
seven catches against Texas
State were the most by a
Southern Miss receiver since
2008 and fourth-most in school
history.
Nebraska: RB Terrell
Newby, who impressed in his
first college game with 76 yards
on 15 carries against Wyoming.
Newby backs up Ameer
Abdullah and Imani Cross, but
he carried nine times during a
13-play touchdown drive with
the game still in doubt in the
second half. He also returns
kicks.
FACTS & FIGURES
The game originally was
scheduled to be played in
Hattiesburg, Miss., but the
financially strapped Southern
Miss athletic department struck
a deal to be the visiting team
in exchange for a $2.1 million
paycheck. The Golden Eagles
will return to Lincoln in 2015

Reds hit 3 HRs off Lynn, beat Cardinals 6-2
By JOE KAY
Associated Press
CINCINNATI Todd Frazier hit two homers, including the
first of Cincinnatis three off Lance Lynn, and the Reds recovered
from a 16-inning loss by overpowering the St. Louis Cardinals
6-2 on Thursday night, taking three out of four in their final series
of the season.
Jay Bruce and Shin-Soo Choo also hit
solo homers off Lynn (13-10), who lasted
five innings and gave up three homers for
only the second time in his career. Frazier
also connected off Seth Maness for the third
multi-homer game of his career.
By winning their final series together,
the Reds tightened the NL Central race and ended the Cardinals
dominance. St. Louis had won the last seven series between them.
Cincinnatis lone loss was 5-4 in 16 innings on Wednesday night.
Left-hander Tony Cingrani (7-3) returned from a sore back
and did a little bit of everything. He pitched into the sixth inning,
gave up two runs, bunted for a hit, stole a base and scored.
David Freese homered for the Cardinals, who have lost six out
of eight. With first-place Pittsburgh idle, the Cardinals slipped to
1 1/2 games behind the Pirates while the Reds moved to 3 games
out.
The Cardinals got some encouraging news before the game.
Cleanup hitter Allen Craig has a sprained left foot but nothing is
broken.
Allen twisted the foot while rounding first base on Wednesday
night. Initially, the Cardinals feared it was broken X-rays were
inconclusive. He flew to St. Louis for an MRI and more X-rays
that ruled out a fracture. Hes expected back at some point during
the season.
Cingrani had to leave his start on Aug. 20 because of a
strained lower back. He returned on Thursday and showed
there was nothing wrong.
Cingrani beat out a bunt for a single in the second inning.
He stole second base off catcher Tony Cruz the first steal
by a Reds pitcher since Bronson Arroyo in 2008 and came
around on a wild pitch and Brandon Phillips infield single.
Phillips was taken out hard at second base while completing
a double play in the sixth. He left an inning later as a precaution
with a sore left thigh.
Lynn had already beaten the Reds three times this season but
is going through a rough time lately. The right-hander has lost his
last four starts, giving up 19 runs in 23 innings.
The only other time in his career that he allowed three homers
in a game was June 14, 2012, at Kansas City.
The four homers overall equaled the most given up by the
Cardinals this season. Pittsburgh hit four on April 28.

Associated Press
COLUMBUS Ohio State linebacker Curtis Grant knows
what its like to be in the spotlight and then to be overlooked.
Now that hes finally the starting middle linebacker for
the No. 3 Buckeyes, he appreciates how far hes come from
acclaimed recruit to disappointment and now back to valued
veteran.
It feels real good, he said this week during preparations for
Saturdays game against San Diego State. Because you know
others are watching and other people are
counting on you. Theres nothing like hav-
ing your coaches and teammates counting
on you instead of feeling like you dont
have anybody.
He certainly knows that feeling, too.
Expectations were already high even
before Grant attended his first class at Ohio
State. Maybe too high.
Grant, a fast and lean player out of
Richmond, Va., was baptized as a 5-star
recruit and one of the top 10 high school
seniors in the country. Before ever stepping on a practice field,
he was compared favorably to the Buckeyes pantheon of
great linebackers: Chris Spielman, Andy Katzenmoyer, Marcus
Marek, Pepper Johnson, Randy Gradishar, A.J. Hawk, James
Laurinaitis and others.
Then he put on a scarlet-and-gray uniform and promptly disap-
pointed everybody.
He didnt play much as a freshman. He stuck around despite
the NCAA investigations that led to a bowl ban and other sanc-
tions. He considered his options, prayed, and noted he was reas-
sured he was at the right place.
Last year he started the first three games and then lost his
job to converted fullback Zach Boren, who hadnt played the
position in four years.
I got too complacent, Grant said last spring. Thats the
only thing I can say. I couldnt handle the glory, I guess, of
being a starter. I should have kept working harder.
His coaches were certainly mystified by why he didnt put a
headlock on the position.
An honest evaluation is that (Curtis) still has a ways to
go, coach Urban Meyer said at the time. Thats one thing that
I push our coaches real hard to be as honest as they can with
them. Dont leave anything behind Door No. 2. I see him out
there grinding and working. He knows his weaknesses and hes
trying to get better.
I like his attitude.
Once again Grant was counted on heavily during spring
workouts and earned a starting job on a unit that had only six
scholarship players and almost no one with his credentials and
experience.
During the very first contact work of fall camp in August,
Grant sustained a concussion that set him back again.
I came through on a blitz and whoever had the ball I just
wanted to kill, added the chiseled 6-3, 243-pounder. That was
kind of crazy on my part but at the same time you need that
crazy mentality to play middle linebacker.
It took him a while to fight off the headaches and dizziness. In
due time, he regained his starting spot and had a solid game (four
solos, 3 assists, a tackle for a loss) in last weeks 40-20 win over
Buffalo.
Now Grant, a junior, finds himself a mainstay of linebacker
corps, starting between Ryan Shazier and Josh Perry.
The great thing about it is Curtis Grant has come a long
way and I dont mean just what hes done on the field but
his maturity and how he prepares and things like that, Meyer
added before the opener. Im not worried about Curtis Grant
because his passion and his energy is whats going to show.
Even though he lost substantial playing time when Boren
was moved over to take his spot last fall, Grant gleaned some-
thing from his replacement.
Confidence-level was my major thing I learned from Zach,
Grant added. He didnt care how hard a task was, he just
stepped up to the plate and did what he had to do.
After shedding all the labels and hype, Grant is doing just
that to show he may be ready to finally become the player so
many thought he was destined to be.
BUCKEYES BUZZ: Nine freshmen saw action in Saturdays
40-20 win over Buffalo. Making their debut were S Vonn Bell,
RB Dontre Wilson, RB Ezekiel Elliott, CB Cam Burrows, LB
Trey Johnson, DT Michael Hill, WR James Clark, DE Joey
Bosa and P Cameron Johnston.
During his radio show on Thursday, Meyer said he thought
Bosa might have performed better than any of his classmates.
Joey Bosa has played very well. Hes earning a lot of time in
the rotation. Im really impressed with him, Meyer explained.
Running backs coach Stan Drayton said the big thing for all
the freshmen was to get them acclimated to a big crowd on a
Saturday afternoon.
We went into the game with the mindset if we can get these
freshmen in the ballgame, in the Shoe, in front of 107,000 fans,
we really wanted to see how they would respond to that, he
added. You never know what youre going to get from a true
freshman in that environment.
QUOTABLE I: San Diego State junior DL Cody Galea on
what the defense has to do to rattle Ohio State QB Braxton
Miller: Hes a good quarterback but theyre all the same. If you
hit them enough times theyre not going to play as well. You just
have to get there.
LOOSE BALL: The low point for Wilson was his second-
period fumble.
He later came back and had a big kickoff return to set up a
touchdown,but a RB putting the ball on the ground is almost
unforgivable.
Dontre was good, other than he laid (the ball) on the ground
that was terrible, Meyer said. He wont play much if that
happens again.
Drayton thought Wilson might have just gotten too frantic
when he fumbled.
Yeah, thats the word, he said. That kid is not afraid of
anything. He is not fazed by much at all. Its a matter of him get-
ting in the rhythm of things and, you know, Ill be disappointed
if hes not better this week than he was last week, and I think
that will continue to progress throughout the whole entire year
for that young man.
Special teams and CBs coach Kerry Coombs was thrilled
that Wilson came back with the 51-yard return to the Buffalo 37.
On the very next play, Jordan Hall ran for a TD.
It was huge. I dont think any of us lack confidence in
Dontre and Ill be honest with you I dont think Dontre lacks
any confidence in himself, he said. Hes an awful lot of fun to
be around. Were going to put him in situations where the ball
is in his hand in the return game.
Hall said the staff puts a premium on hanging onto the ball.
In the running-backs room, ball security is a core value,
Hall added. We take that seriously. If the balls even outside of
your body in practice, you have to do something called pride
drills. Theyre not fun.
He explained that they entailed running with footballs in
each arm and then diving to the ground every 5 yards. For every
time that a ball is in a position to be fumbled or knocked loose,
runners have an additional 100 yards added to their total.

Grant is counted on heavily by No. 3 Ohio State
MLB Glance
Grant
USC: RB Justin Davis. Hes only 17 years old, but the freshman
looks ready for big-time college football pressure after a smooth debut
at Hawaii. With Silas Redd likely still out with a knee injury, Davis and
Tre Madden should get the bulk of the carries for the Trojans, who ran
the ball impressively in their opener.
FACTS & FIGURES
Washington State has lost eight straight to USC, and hasnt won
in Los Angeles since 2000. The Cougars have won three games at the
Coliseum since 1941. USCs revamped 5-2 defense got off to a
strong start last week under new coordinator Clancy Pendergast, allow-
ing just 231 yards 23 on the ground. The Cougars have 24 play-
ers from Southern California, including DB Anthony Carpenter and
LB Kache Palacio, who both played alongside USC star WR Marqise
Lee at Serra High School. Hallidays 65 passes at Auburn were the
second-most in school history, yet the Cougars also rushed for 120
yards more than they managed in any game last season.
Round Up
The Wildcats (2-3-1) best chance in
the first half was at 12:35 when junior
Bailey Millers try from the right side
was denied by Jays sophomore net-
minder Samantha Wehri (2 saves versus
5 shots-on-goal).
The Jays got what ended up being the
match-winner at 3:14 when senior Jessica
Koverman stole the ball in the Jefferson
end, and after a short run to the right
wing, pooched a 14-yard lefty shot over
the top for a 2-0 edge.
For Jefferson, the halftime break was
exactly what the Red and White needed.
They controlled the ball much bet-
ter the second half and pushed forward
more.
They had a great chance at 34:09
when freshman Arianna Knebel had a
chance in front, getting control from 14
yards and finding the left side of the
cords for a 2-1 deficit.
Both teams had openings from then
on but couldnt quite get good enough
looks or enough possession to find
the back of the net.
At 22:52, after a dangerous sequence
in front of the net, Kreeger had a couple
of chances: one hitting the right post and
the second getting commandeered by
OConner.
At 22:07, senior Samantha Bonifas
missed just over the bar for the Jays.
At 15:43, Bonifas lofted a shot from
the left side that OConner juggled and
finally got the stop.
At 8:06, Jefferson junior Kylee Haehn
with Wehri a bit out of position after
a sequence fired a 25-yarder from the
left side that just missed over the top.
At 4:38, she had another 25-yarder
from just outside the right wing but
couldnt curl the ball into the net.
The Blue and Gold nearly put it away
at 3:55 when Bonifas had another great
chance a 16-yarder from the left side
but OConner deflected the orb off the
crossbar and cradled it for the stop.
We lit a spark in the girls at the half
and they responded well, Stober added.
We did the things weve been working
on and striving for better and fought
back. We had much better effort. What
we need to work on now is to do these
things for 80 minutes. Were making
great strides in all the little things: the
skills, the communication; that make
for good teams. We need to put a whole
game together; we havent done that yet.
Munoz felt his team had its chances
as well.
I felt we had better chances the sec-
ond half than the first but we couldnt
finish them for whatever reason: not
enough control, bad luck, good stops,
Munoz added. At the same time, we
created those chances. We are doing that
more and more; were putting ourselves
in the positions to put the ball in the
back of the net. We need to finish them
off more consistently but were getting
there.
St. Johns, on a 3-match winning
streak, hosts Ottawa-Gladorf 11 a.m. (not

Browns simply cant
close in openers
By TOM WITHERS
Associated Press
BEREA The buildup has almost always been followed by the
letdown.
The Browns season opener, treated by Cleveland fans with the
same anticipation as kids awakening on Christmas morning to wrapped
packages under the holiday tree, has brought mainly misery to this
football-frenzied city since the franchise returned to the NFL as an
expansion team in 1999.
The Browns are just 1-13 in openers,
losing 12 times at home.
Week 1? More like a weak one.
For most of the players on Clevelands
roster, the seasons first game has been little
more than an exercise in frustration and
failure.
Cornerback Joe Haden didnt want to label this Sundays opener at
home against the Miami Dolphins as a must win but its pretty close
to being one.
Its not a kill shot (if we lose) but we have to get over that hump,
said Haden, 0-3 in openers with Cleveland. Its not gonna be, Ok,
lets get the next one. Lets get the next one. We have to win this first
game. I mean, not putting all the pressure on us but its time to step up.
We always talk about it but if we cant come out here and win, its not
a step forward.
Too often, an 0-1 start for the Browns has turned into 0-3 followed
by a lengthy losing streak and eventually another 5-11 season. Once
things begin to roll in the wrong direction, its been nearly impossible
to stop. And by the time the calendar turns to a new year, Cleveland
coaches lose their jobs, players are sent packing and fans become less
and less tolerant.
Its a familiar patter around here, and one the Browns need to
change.
You have to be able to win at home and win the first one, said
linebacker DQwell Jackson, 0-6 in openers as he starts his seventh
season in Cleveland. Ive been here awhile and I know in that first one,
we havent had a lot of success. We got a good opponent coming in.
We think were good but we also got to go out and play the game, we
got to show we can win at home first and then obviously the division.

DEAR DOCTOR K:
I have an open sore on the
bottom of my foot. Can I just
cover it with a Band-Aid until
it heals, or do I need to see a
doctor?
DEAR READER: I
am glad you asked this
question, because in most
circumstances, just covering
it with a Band-Aid is a really
bad idea.
Im guessing that this
sore is more than some
redness of the skin. I assume
it is a little hole or crater,
and that the top skin of the
sole of your foot is gone. If
thats the case, what youve
got is called a foot ulcer.
A foot ulcer crater is often
surrounded by a border of
thickened, callused skin.
(Ive put an illustration on my
website, AskDoctorK.com.)
Some craters are shallow.
In severe ulcers, the red
crater may be deep enough
to expose tendons or bones.
If you have a foot ulcer, you
should see your doctor.
People with diabetes are
more likely to get severe
foot ulcers. Thats because
diabetes can cause nerve
damage in the feet, which
makes them less sensitive to
pain or discomfort. People
with diabetes can injure
their foot significantly and
not know it because they
experience no pain. Then, the
ulcer can slowly get worse.
People with diabetes are
at special risk from having a
foot ulcer. Because diabetics
often have poor blood supply
in their feet, their foot ulcers
have more trouble healing.
Healing requires a good
blood supply to provide
energy and a steady flow of
immune system cells to do
its work.
Foot ulcers are vulnerable
to infection. An untreated
infection can develop into:
-- An abscess, or pus-
filled pocket;
-- A spreading infection of
the skin and underlying fat;
-- A bone infection;
-- Gangrene, an area of
dead, darkened body tissue.
If you have good
circulation, your doctor
can treat your foot ulcer by
trimming away diseased
tissue and removing any
nearby callused skin. The
doctor will apply a dressing
and may prescribe specialized
footwear to relieve pressure
on the affected area. If there is
a possibility of infection, you
may need to take antibiotics.
Foot ulcers that do not
respond to more conservative
therapy may require surgery. If
you have poor circulation, you
may need surgery to correct
blood-flow problems in your
leg arteries. If the circulation is
poor enough, there may be no
way to cure a foot ulcer, and
the recurrent infections that
develop in that ulcer, except
by amputating the foot.
So if youve had one foot
ulcer, you should see your
doctor about it. After the
ulcer is cured, you should
take steps to help prevent
future ulcers:
-- Examine your feet
every day to check for rubbed
areas, cracks or calluses.
-- Wash feet every day
using mild soap and warm
water. Dry thoroughly. Apply
moisturizing lotion to dry
areas.
-- Wear roomy, well-
cushioned shoes and soft,
absorbent socks.

Horoscope
By Bernice Bede Osol
Womans choice
is to stay or go
Dear Annie: I am in-
volved with a wonderful man
who has three grown chil-
dren. The youngest, age 25,
is still in college. He seems to
have made college his career.
Dad has put himself into debt
putting his children through
school.
This young man was fail-
ing his classes, so he decided
to take a break and moved
back into his fathers home
six months ago. He does not
have a job, nor is he putting
any effort into get-
ting one. He re-
cently mentioned
that he is plan-
ning to go back
to school, and it
seems that Dad is
again going to pay
for it.
I think it is time
to cut the cord.
What advice do
you have for the
25-year-old who
is not ready to be-
come a productive citizen?
What about the father who
feels it is his responsibility
to keep paying for his childs
education? And what about
me? I want us to spend the
rest of our lives together, but I
have no desire to be fnancial-
ly and emotionally drained by
a child who doesnt want to
grow up. Stuck Between
Dear Stuck: Obviously, a
25-year-old should get a job
and help support himself. If
Dad is willing to help pay for
tuition, thats fne, but Dad
should not encourage depen-
dency by being overly ac-
commodating, allowing him
to live rent-free while he sits
around all day. His son needs
to be held accountable.
But they arent asking for
our advice. So this is for you:
This is not your child, and
you need to be careful about
making demands. Your ba-
sic choice is to stay or to go.
Are you willing to wait it out,
hoping the young man will
eventually get it together?
Talk gently to your boyfriend
about your concerns, helping
him understand that the best
gift he could give his son is to
teach him to be independent.
But dont issue any ultima-
tums unless you are willing
to follow through.
Dear Annie: For the past
20 years, my wife and I have
hosted an annual summer
weekend for a small group
of friends. Several years ago,
one of our guests brought
along her 10-year-old cousin.
She didnt ask. The second
time she did this, I asked her
not to. She apologized, and I
thought that was the end of it.
This year, however, she
called the night before and
announced that she and a
friend would be there in the
morning. I was seething. Had
she asked, we would have
said yes, but I resent the dis-
regard for our ef-
forts in cooking and
preparing.
To my astonish-
ment, all of the oth-
er guests thought
I was overreacting
and the woman
hadnt done any-
thing wrong. Where
has common cour-
tesy gone? To me,
her failure to ask
for our OK was
blatantly rude. My
friends say I should apolo-
gize. Why Ask When You
Can Just Take
Dear Why: Your friends
are incorrect. No one should
bring uninvited guests. It is
considerate to ask beforehand
whether it is convenient. You
can explain this more thor-
oughly to your guests, say-
ing they cannot bring anyone
without asking you frst. Or
you can choose to consider
it a compliment that your
friends treat your home as
their own, whether you like
it or not.
Dear Annie: I read the
letter from Outcast Sister,
whose sisters resent that she
is being paid to care for her
mother. Please tell her that
the best thing her family can
do is see an eldercare lawyer
or specialist.
When my mother passed
away last year, I left my home
and career to move in with
my elderly father and help
him continue his quality of
life. My sisters and I consult-
ed an eldercare lawyer, and
we are glad we did. The laws
are very complicated, and
small mistakes now can be
very costly later. Please tell
your readers who are in simi-
lar situations to seek profes-
sional guidance. Prepared

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2013
Events both unexpected and
inevitable can be turned to your
advantage in the year ahead. Your
ability to make the best out of what
you are given will greatly help
your financial or career prospects.
Opportunities will come from those
you have worked or played with in
the past.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- Plan to have fun. Get out with
friends or take a day trip that will
open up new opportunities for
relationships, hobbies or a self-
improvement project.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) --
Emotions will escalate and troubles
will surface if you arent careful
about how you react to the days
tumultuous events. Step back and
keep a cool head. Let others speak
first.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) --
Dont take chances that can lead to
arguments or injury. Discipline and
common sense will be your friends;
impulse, your enemy. Try to make
some small but necessary changes
on the home front.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) -- If youve been feeling down
in the dumps or green around the
gills, a lifestyle change might be in
order. Dont allow anyone to meddle
in your affairs.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) -- Focus on things you need
to fix at home. If you take care of
your responsibilities, you will feel
better about your current situation.
Avoid interacting with someone who
upsets you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- Let your imagination be your
guide. You can set trends and get
the support you need to invest in
something that you uncover. A new
or rejuvenated romance appears
likely.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) --
Rethink your strategy and consider
a more pragmatic course. A medical
issue will improve if you employ
both alternative and traditional
options.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) --
Your emotions will be scattered, but
your heart will know the right way
to go. Your intuition will not let you
down when it comes to a serious
relationship matter. Be proactive,
not reactive.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) --
Use your intellect to get what you
want. You will see situations clearly,
making it easy for you to handle
tough negotiations. Be cautious on
the domestic front.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) --
Cast a gimlet eye upon any offer
being made to you. A fast talker
could mislead you if you arent
careful. Before moving forward, do
your research diligently.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
-- Set some rules that will help your
household run smoothly, and be
sure to include incentives in order
to avoid opposition. A moderate
approach to change can lead to
more options down the line.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You
could have mixed emotions about
the people around you. Before you
address your feelings openly, take a
look at the ups and downs you face
and the consequences that could
ensue from your words.

US officials: US
considers training
Syria rebels
WASHINGTON (AP) The
Obama administration is consid-
ering a plan to use U.S. military
trainers to help increase the capa-
bilities of the Syrian rebels, in a
move that would greatly expand
the current CIA training being
done quietly in Jordan, U.S. offi-
cials told The Associated Press on
Thursday.
Any training would take place
outside Syria, and one possible
location would be Jordan.
The officials said no decision
had been made, but that discus-
sions were going on at high lev-
els of the government. It comes
as the Obama administration
prods Congress to authorize lim-
ited military strikes against Syrian
President Bashar Assads govern-
ment in retaliation for a deadly
Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack.
The proposal to use the U.S.
military to train the rebels
something the administration
has resisted through more than
two years of civil war would
answer the demands of some
lawmakers, including Sen. John
McCain, R-Ariz., to do more to
train and equip the Syrian opposi-
tion. President Barack Obama in
June decided to provide lethal aid
to the rebels, but so far none of
that assistance has gotten to the
opposition.
Health law coverage may
track workplace cost shift
WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obamas health
care law appears to mirror a trend in job-based insurance, where
employees are being nudged into cost-saving plans that require
them to pay a bigger share of their medical expenses.
Two independent studies out this week highlighted attrac-
tive prices for less-generous bronze plans that will offer low
monthly premiums but require patients to pick up more of the
cost if they get sick.
Consumers might avoid rate shock over premiums, but
some could end up struggling with bigger bills for the care they
receive.
The Obama plans will be available starting Oct. 1 for people
who dont have access to coverage on the job.
Studies by the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation and
Avalere Health provided the first look at rates filed by insurers
around the country, ahead of the Oct. 1 opening of new state
insurance markets under the law.
Consumers will use the markets to find out whether they
qualify for tax credits to help pay their premiums and to pick a
private insurance plan from a range of coverage levels: bronze,
silver, gold and platinum.
Come Jan. 1, virtually everyone in the United States will
be required to have coverage, or face fines if they dont. At the
same time, insurance companies no longer can turn away people
in poor health.
What was really striking as we dug into the numbers is how
inexpensive the bronze plans are, said Larry Levitt, a Kaiser
vice president.
Avalere, a private data analysis firm, found the average
monthly premium for a bronze plan is $274, compared with
$336 for the next level of coverage, a silver plan. The savings
from going with bronze adds up to $744 annually, and thats off
the sticker price, before federal tax credits that will reduce pre-
miums for an estimated 4 out of 5 customers in the new markets.
Its likely to entice healthier enrollees to opt for a less gen-
erous benefit package, said Caroline Pearson, a lead author of
the study.
Kalida Village voters will
see Jason Birkemeier, Jon
Edelbrock, Sandy Fortman
and Richard Schulte up for
the four open council seats.
In Van Wert County, four open
Venedocia Village Council seats
will be decided amongst Thomas
Emery, Matt Eutsler, Sarah
Kimmet, Lee Lare, Gloria Leiter,
Paul Price and Kirma Rowlett.
The four Middle Point
Village Council seats up for
election will be filled by Brenda
Mengerink, Lisa Merkle, Scott
Redding and William Brian Van
Cleave, who are unopposed.
In school board races, Delphos
City Schools Board of Education
will see three new members
in January. Perry Wiltsie, John
Klausing and appointed board
member George Mox will all
vacate their seats. Write-in can-
didates are Brent Gable, Andy
North and Erica Pimpas.
Elida Local Schools District
voters will decide on one board
of education member amongst
Jason Bowers, Jeff Christoff,
Dennis Fricke, Jonathon
Nichols and Christine Ulrich.
Pat Schymanski is unopposed
to fill the unexpired seat of
Brad Settlage, who resigned in
July for medical reasons.
