Delphos, Ohio

COLUMBUS It may be too

soon for students to have marks
beside their name in the grade book
this school year but that isnt the
case for local districts as the Ohio
Department of Education (ODE)
released local school district report
cards Sunday morning based on evaluations done in the previous year. As
seemingly happens every year, the
cards have been refined.
The 2014 Ohio School Report
Card grades schools on more measures, offering Ohioans an even
clearer picture on how well their
schools and districts are doing,
stated Superintendent of Public

Instruction Dr. Richard A. Ross.

The 2014 report builds on a simple,
helpful approach that informs parents and earned last years Ohio
School Report Card national kudos.
With its new data, this years report
card does more than set high standards of what makes a good school.
It shows where their schools need to
improve.
The days of a school district
receiving an overall grade are gone.
Most local districts have nine letter
grades issued.
Our 2014 report cards include
grades of A through F for up to nine
measures, depending on the school or
district, plus a tenth K-3 Literacy
measure coming soon, Ross
pointed out.
At Delphos City Schools, the two

achievement grades were a B and

an A. The A was earned for meeting
95.8 percent of the state goals. The
performance index of 86.5 percent
resulted in the grade of B. That grade
reflects the number of students who
passed the state test.
The gap-closing grade given was
also an B. The grade is meant to measure if every student is succeeding
regardless of income, race, ethnicity
or disability. The districts overall
progress grade was an A as was its
graduation rate.
Marks at Ottoville Local Schools
were similar. An A was earned for
meeting nearly 100 percent of the
state goals and a performance index
of 89.4 percent resulted in the grade
of B. The gap-closing grade and
graduation rate for Ottoville were

both A and the overall progress grade

was B.
Fort Jennings saw a grade of B
across the board in performance
index (85.9), indicators met (87.5)
and gap (83.3) with an overall progress grade of C. The districts received
an A for graduation rate.
At Elida, the performance index
grade was a B (81.9) and a C (79.2)
in indicators met. While the districts
gap grade was a D, the progress was
an A and graduation rate earned a B.
At Lincolnview Local Schools,
a B was earned in the performance
index and a C was given for meeting state indicators. The gap-closing
grade given was a D. The overall
progress grade was a C and the
graduation rate earned and A.

Officials in flood study to offer basic plan

OTTAWA (AP) Officials studying how to reduce flooding risks and hazards along the
Blanchard River in northwest Ohio will present a basic plan for consideration by U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers leaders in the coming weeks, according to the regional Corps office handling the study.
The plan, which isnt final and probably will be adjusted, calls for three targeted efforts to
decrease risks, the agencys Buffalo District announced in a statement this week.
The plan suggests a channel could collect water from Eagle Creek and divert it back to the
Blanchard River downstream from Findlay, and a levee could help block water from jumping
the rivers banks in one area and flowing toward Lye Creek. The third part of the plan could
involve steps such as raising structures or possibly buying out landowners in high-risk areas.
Addressing flooding along the Blanchard River is a top concern in areas where five major
floods led to millions of dollars in damage since 2007.
The Corps said the briefing on the plan will be a milestone in the years-long study and will
guide how the plan is adjusted or reworked before the studys completion, planned by March
2016. Once the study is done, funding at the local or federal levels would have to be allocated
for the outlined plan to be put into action.
The study has been difficult, complicated and sometimes controversial, but it remains the
Buffalo Districts top priority project, district commander Lt. Col. Karl D. Jansen said.
It stood out because to me it has a direct impact on vulnerable citizens, Jansen told The
Lima News. I noticed the last decade of flooding has been more so than the previous decade.
The Corps and Hancock County are expected to split to the cost of the study, expected to be
about $9 million, The (Findlay) Courier reported. Estimates for the actual flood-control projects
are much larger and have ranged as high as $200 million in the county, it said.

Mental Health First Aid training to be offered

INFORMATION SUBMITTED

to provide exactly that type of education.

The evidence behind the Mental Health
First Aid program demonstrates that it builds
mental health literacy, helping the public identify, understand and respond to signs of mental
illness. Trainees are taught how to apply a
five-step strategy in a variety of situations, such
as helping someone through a panic attack,
engaging with someone who may be suicidal,
or assisting an individual who has overdosed.
An important component of the Mental Health
First Aid training is the opportunity to practice
the intervention strategy rather than to just learn
about it. This simple experience can make it
easier to actually apply the knowledge in a real
life situation.
How to help someone going through a mental health crisis? The basics of The Action Plan:
- Assess for risk of suicide or harm
- Listen nonjudgmentally
- Give reassurance and information
- Encourage appropriate professional help
- Encourage self-help and other support
strategies.
To become certified in Mental Health First
Aid, you must complete an eight hour training
course. The course is designed to give people
key skills to help someone who is developing a
mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. Pathways Counseling Center
in Ottawa will begin offering this course in
the Fall. Please call Pathways for more information, 419-523-4300. You may also find
more information online at www.mentalhealthfirstaid.org.

PUTNAM COUNTY If you ran into

someone exhibiting unusual behavior such as
anxiety, panic, hearing voices that you cant
hear or seeing an image that you cant see,
would you know what to do? Would you know
how to help?
If you saw somebody with an open wound
or found someone unresponsive, you would
likely know to apply pressure to the wound to
stop the bleeding or begin cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR) until emergency personnel
arrived. Many people feel prepared and confident in their ability to step in and offer first
aid to a person in need of physical care. Few
people have the same confidence in the ability
to identify and help someone experiencing a
mental health crisis.
Today, in Ohio and throughout the country,
many individuals do not understand mental illness or addiction, stigmatize the diseases, and
isolate the individuals who are facing these
illnesses. This impacts the ability to engage
individuals in services, ensure appropriate networks of treatment and referral, and provide
needed supports to individuals. With one in five
adults experiencing mental illness each year,
there is a need for individuals and communities
to develop a better understanding of mental illness and addiction. Similar to CPR, individuals
should be able to develop the first response
skill-set necessary to identify and respond to an
individual experiencing a mental health crisis.
Mental Health First Aid is a program designed

tips on health care, tax returns
INFORMATION SUBMITTED
WASHINGTON The Internal Revenue
Service announced the availability of several
new YouTube videos to help taxpayers get
important information about the Affordable
Care Act and tax return filing.
The new videos, which are part of a series
on the IRS YouTube channel, feature IRS
Commissioner John Koskinen discussing the
premium tax credit and the individual shared
responsibility provision. These provisions of
the Affordable Care Act will affect peoples
tax returns next year when they file their 2014
returns.
In the video about the premium tax credit,
the Commissioner talks about how it can
help make purchasing health care through the
Health Insurance Marketplace more affordable for people with moderate incomes.
You can get advance payments of the
premium tax credit paid directly to the insurance company to lower your monthly premium, or you can apply for the premium tax
credit when you file your tax return for 2014,
Koskinen said.

COLUMBUS Analysis of the Ohio School Report
Cards released today shows poverty continues to be a
driving factor in student performance at school districts
across the state.
The analysis was conducted by Howard B.
Fleeter, a consultant with the Education Tax Policy
Institute (ETPI), on behalf of the Ohio School Boards
Association (OSBA), Ohio Association of School
Business Officials (OASBO) and Buckeye Association
of School Administrators (BASA).
The findings show that scores on state standardized
tests vary at school districts based on the percentage
of economically disadvantaged students enrolled. The
analysis looked at the latest Performance Index scores,
which measure student performance in a school district
on state standardized tests.
The analysis shows, for example, that districts with
a Performance Index score of 90 or less have 83.29
percent economically disadvantaged students, while
districts with a score above 105 have 14.24 percent
economically disadvantaged students.
Representatives from the three education management organizations had this to say about the findings:
Todays release of school district report cards
underscores the continued strong link between poverty
and student achievement, said Damon Asbury, OSBA
director of legislative services. Data showing this correlation is dramatic, and its clear more work is needed
in Ohio to address this gap.
Ohio students who are economically disadvantaged
are much more likely to have a performance score
lower than their peers, said Tom Ash, BASA director
of governmental relations. And we know that just recognizing this link does not provide a solution for those
students.
Ohios school-funding formula provides some funding for economically disadvantaged students, but we
have not yet found a magic bullet, said Barbara
Shaner, OASBO associate executive director. We
need to better understand the link between poverty and
achievement and put that understanding into action to
improve students scores.

No Good Deed defeats For fans, college football

Guardians at theaters poses wedding dilemma
LOS ANGELES (AP) It
took a murderous Idris Elba
and a pair of dolphin buddies
to defeat Guardians of the
Galaxy at movie theaters.
The Sony thriller No
Good Deed, which stars
Elba as an escaped convict
and Taraji P. Henson as the
innocent he terrorizes, opened
on top of the box office with
$24.5 million, according to
studio estimates Sunday. And
Sony wasnt surprised.
Its a movie that we really
loved and felt that it was going
to win, said Sony distribution
chief Rory Bruer. You have
to give it to the cast in Idris
and Taraji. Their chemistry
together is fantastic.
The film nearly doubled its
reported budget in its first week of
release, said Paul Dergarabedian,
senior media analyst for boxoffice tracker Rentrak.
Its the first brand new,
post-summer release to really
catch on, he said.
The Warner Bros. feelgood film Dolphin Tale 2
debuted in second place with
$16.5 million. The familyfriendly story stars Morgan
Freeman and Ashley Judd
reprising their roles from the
2011 original.
Guardians slipped to
third place with $8 million in

ticket sales. The Marvel space

adventure, which held the No.
1 spot for four weeks, is the
top-grossing film of the year
domestically, collecting more
than $300 million in North
America and $600 million
worldwide.
Paramounts Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles finished fourth with $4.8 million,
followed by the Fox comedy
Lets Be Cops, which collected $4.3 million.
Fox Searchlights crime
drama The Drop, which stars
Tom Hardy and the late James
Gandolfini, opened in sixth
place with $4.2 million an
impressive showing given it
only played in 809 theaters.

Estimated ticket sales for

Friday through Sunday at U.S.
and Canadian theaters, according to Rentrak. Where available, the latest international
numbers are also included.
Final domestic figures will be
released today.
1. No Good Deed, $24.5
million.
2. Dolphin Tale 2, $16.5
million ($1.3 million international).
3. Guardians of the Galaxy,
$8 million ($9.3 million international).
4. Teenage Mutant Ninja

Turtles, $4.8 million ($10.5

million international).
5. Lets Be Cops, $4.3
million ($2.5 million international).
6. The Drop, $4.2 million.
7. If I Stay, $4 million
($3.2 million international).
8. The November Man,
$2.7 million.
9. The Giver, $2.6 million
($3 million international).
10. The Hundred-Foot
Journey, $2.4 million.

Estimated ticket sales for

Friday through Sunday at
international theaters (excluding the U.S. and Canada),
according to Rentrak:
1. Lucy, $25 million.
2. Into the Storm, $14.2
million.
3. (tie) The Expendables 3,
$11.5 million.
4. (tie) Sex Tape, $11.5
million.
5. Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles, $10.5 million.
6. Divergent, $10 million.
7. Hercules, $9.6 million.
8. Dawn of the Planet of the
Apes, $9.5 million.
9. Guardians of the Galaxy,
$9.3 million.
10. Rurouni Kenshin, $8.5

11. The Maze Runner, $8.3

The Simpsons toast 25 years with songs, stars

LOS ANGELES (AP) Bart and Lisa
Simpson, Chief Wiggum and son Ralph, bartender
Moe and Apu from Kwik-E-Mart celebrated 25
years of The Simpsons in Hollywood on Friday.
Those characters are performed by three actors
Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith and Hank
Azaria who hosted the world premiere of The
Simpsons Take the Bowl at the Los Angeles
concert venue the Hollywood Bowl. The program
featured music, stars and reminiscences from TVs
longest-running scripted show.
The Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, which featured several members wearing tall, blue Marge
Simpson wigs, performed as classic clips from
the shows past 25 seasons played on big screens
above them. The 26th season of The Simpsons
begins Sept. 28.
Oh yeah, The Simpsons will go on, long
after the human race is gone, sang Weird Al
Yankovic, who performed a little ditty about
Homer and Marge.
Other guests appearing during the two-hour

program included show creator Matt Groening,

former Simpsons writer Conan OBrien, comedian Jon Lovitz, pro skateboarder Tony Hawk and
Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer.
Zimmer, wearing a jacket covered with Bart
faces, performed the music he composed for
the Oscar-nominated short film The Longest
Daycare, which shows how Maggie saves a butterfly from a classroom bully.
The entire Hollywood Bowl was Simpson-ified
for the program, which continues on Saturday and
Sunday night. Plastic doughnuts dangled above
concertgoers heads and life-sized cardboard cutouts of show characters were scattered throughout
the venue.
New Simpsons animations were created just
for the concert, including a peek at the Simpson
family arriving at the Hollywood Bowl and Homer
trying to resist pushing the fireworks button.
Another bit showed Maggie launching the fireworks, and with that, pyrotechnics exploded above
the famous Bowl shell.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) Emily

Younker isnt getting married until next
year but shes already made sure the
date doesnt conflict with college football and sent one invitation: To Big Al,
the elephant mascot of the University of
Alabama Crimson Tide.
College football poses a huge dilemma for brides and grooms in states like
Alabama where college football reigns
supreme: Get married on a Saturday, when
friends and relatives might pick football
over the ceremony, or watch the game?
Or, perhaps, do both?
From the start of the season in late
August until early December, when conference championships are played, some
couples avoid Saturday nuptials altogether
to ensure friends and relatives will attend
rather than skip out for college football.
After all, its tough to sit quietly in a pew
when 101,000 fans are screaming for your
team in a stadium a few miles away.
Many couples take the risk and have
TVs at the reception to keep guests happy,
and its not unheard of to see a groomsman in a tuxedo wearing an earbud as he
listens to a game on his smartphone. But
the choicest fall wedding date isnt when
the leaves are turning colors, planners say,
its when your team has an open Saturday
on the schedule.
For Younker, an Alabama fan like
her fiance, the answer was simple: Wed
Brandon Cutts on June 20, 2015, before
football begins. That way, guests wont
have to decide whether to attend a game
or the wedding; she wont have to miss a
game to get married; and a student dressed
as Big Al who will appear at a wedding
in his Crimson Jersey for a $400 fee
can appear at the wedding for photos.
And, as a bonus, Younker wont have
to cope with the in-season passions of her
moms family, who are Tennessee fans;
her dads family, which pulls for South
Carolina; and her brother, who attends
Auburn.
We decided to just do it during the
summer and incorporate football into it,
said Younker, a second-grade teacher in
Montgomery. Id rather deal with the
heat than with football schedules.
While professional football is huge in
the North and Midwest, college football
is the biggest game in town across the
South, in Texas and in Plains states like
Oklahoma and Nebraska. In the fall, life
revolves around the college schedule as
fans tailgate outside stadiums on Saturday

or have game-watching parties in homes

and bars.
With the average wedding costing
nearly $30,000 last year according to a
survey by XO Group Inc., which operates
the wedding website TheKnot.com, couples arent willing to risk having leftover
food and drinks should guest decide to
watch college football rather than attend
the ceremony.
In Dallas, longtime wedding planner
Micki Novak said fall weddings often are
planned around the Texas and Southern
Methodist football schedules, but shes
also booked the Horned Frog mascot of
Texas Christian to appear at couple of
receptions.
During the fall, Novak heads off one
potential problem during wedding rehearsals by telling groomsmen not to watch or
listen to the game on their smartphone
during the ceremony. But what about a
couple who insists on getting married
on the Saturday of the Texas-Oklahoma
game?
If you are silly enough to plan a wedding on that weekend you are going to run
into transportation problems and all sorts
of other things, said Novak, executive
director of the American Association of
Certified Wedding Planners.
Professional wedding planner Kavonda
L. Rogers of Montgomery said World
War III nearly broke out a few years
ago when a bride settled on a wedding
date not realizing it was the same day as
the Souths oldest football rivalry game,
Auburn-Georgia.
It was intense. People were saying,
No, you have to move the wedding. You
cant do this, said Rogers.
The solution: Rogers arranged for a
big-screen television to be turned on in a
room right off the reception area. At game
time, most of the men left the reception to
huddle around the TV.
Boston wedding planner Alexis
Eliopoulos OMara said the only time she
worries about a college football conflict is
when a couple might want to get married
at Boston College on a game day. Even
then, its not much of a concern because
there are so many other factors to consider
in a major city.
College football isnt a big deal, said
OMara, of Unique Weddings by Alexis.
People are much more into pro football
up here, and they dont build campuses
around football stadiums like they do in
the South.

France bristles as Netflix advances in Europe

PARIS (AP) Netflix
is tapping into six new markets today hoping to gain a
big subscriber base around
Europe, but is facing a frosty
welcome in France. Wellestablished French competitors are trying to head off
a Netflix wave, the government wants oversight and
the cinema industry wants
Netflix to invest heavily in
French productions.
The
video-streaming
giant, which has more than

50 million subscribers in 40
countries, this year earmarked
$400 million to expand further internationally. Its
launching now in Germany,
Austria, Switzerland, France,
Belgium and Luxembourg,
after setting up in Britain,
Ireland, Denmark, Finland,
Norway, Sweden and the
Netherlands in recent years.
The presence of Netflix,
which has headquarters in
Los Gatos, California, is

countries, but less so in

France, where Netflix hopes
to reach a third of French
homes in the next five to
10 years. Netflix declined to
comment on its challenges
in France before the official
launch today.
The company was a pioneer in the field in the U.S.,
and enjoyed new success
by creating original content
such as the series House
of Cards. But video-ondemand services are now
already well-established in
many European markets.
Canal+, Frances main
pay-TV operator, has half
a million subscribers for its
CanalPlay, started in 2011,
and moved Wednesday to
head off a competitive blow
from Netflix. Canal+, which
already owns French rights to
House of Cards, launched
a new partnership with HBO
as well as the possibility to
pre-download series and
movies to watch later without an internet connection.
It also announced it will create French and Americanproduced TV series.
What is impressive with
Netflix is its technological

and marketing abilities, said

Frederic Goldsmith, from a
French-based group of movie
producers, but its service
isnt new.
Patrick
Holzman,
CanalPlays director, is banking on their French touch
and proximity with customers. Our strategy is the same,
with or without Netflix, said
Holzman.
Bruno Delecour, head of
FilmoTV, one of Frances
first video-on-demand companies, said the buzz around
Netflix is positive for the
French market, because it
incites new households to try
video-on-demand services.
But Delecour remains vigilant. The entrepreneur decided to focus on developing a
specialized offer in movies
rather than competing with a
generalized content provider
like Netflix.
Weve been preparing
for competitors for years. We
made the choice to occupy
one segment of the market
and invested heavily accordingly.
In Germany, experts have
said little impact is expected
by Netflixs arrival, as the

country already offers a considerable amount of free and

pay-TV.
Another challenge in
France is a requirement that
40 percent of content on
French radio, TV and movies
in theaters must be of French
origin.
Because
Netflixs
European headquarters are
in Amsterdam, the company
does not have to comply with
the rule, which is designed to
protect domestic creativity.
But French movie and
television industry experts
rally around the idea of
the French Exception.
Offering only American
series will not work, said
Pascal Rogard, director of
Frances Society of Dramatic
Authors and Composers.
Aware of this, Netflix
has already planned to produce an eight-episode television drama series called
Marseille, written by
French award-winning writer
Dan Frank and set to start in
late 2015.
But for some contributors
to French cinema, this investment effort falls short.
We welcome the com-

petition, said Rogard, but

only if theyre playing with
the same rules.
Netflix will have to
comply with some French
and European regulations.
Notably, they will be barred
from streaming films under
three years old. From January
2015 onwards, Netflix will
also have to pay a two
percent tax if their annual
earnings are more than 10
million euros, following a
recent decision by the French
Culture Ministry to tax operators based abroad.
In France many close to
the film industry fear Netflix
will drag subscribers away
from Canal+, which is currently the main financier of
French-made films.
There is a particularity in
France in that television channels finance domestic productions. Their level of investment is calculated according
to the number of subscribers,
Florence Gastaud, head of
a union of French producers and authors, explained.
Therefore if the number of
subscribers goes down (as
some move to a Netflix subscription), the investment in
domestic production goes
down.
In another possible hurdle,
Frances Council of State, a
body that advises the government on legal issues, on
Tuesday recommended government oversight over the
algorithm that Netflix uses
to present series and movies, to make sure French and
European content is well
positioned.
Developing domestic production is not such a major
concern in other markets.
In the Netherlands, where
Netflix launched last year, ondemand media services arent
required to adhere to a quota
of 50 percent European content for public and commercial television channels, just
expected to generally promote the representation and
access to European content,
according to the Ministry of
Education and Culture.

DELPHOS What a difference a

week can make in the game of golf.
Last week, the weather was warm
and humid.
Saturday saw a chilly, windy and
wet day at the Delphos Country Club
as Kalidas boys golfers grabbed the
15-team DCC Invitational.
That change in weather was as much
a concern for the coaches and golfers as
anything.
The Wildcats edged out second-place
Stryker 322-333, with Evan Recker
shooting a 78 and Jeffrey Knueve 79.
We won with Zach (Erhart) not
shooting his usual normal round. Thats
why this is a team sport; when one guy
has a bad day, others pick up for him,
Kalida coach Ken Schnipke said. The
weather was different but I felt we were
confortable with it; we generally didnt
let it get to us and if we had the bad
hole, move on. With the PCL meet here
Sept. 22, we also wanted to use this as a
practice round, to figure out what works
here, what clubs to use and which ones
not to.
Lincolnview, behind medalist Joshah
Ragers 75 and Derek Youtseys 78, was
sixth at 360.
Joshah only had as couple of bad
holes today and he lost one ball but
other than that, he was great, especially cosidering the conditions, Lancer
coach Daryl Dowdy explained. Derek
had the best round of his life. Hes a
grinder and that was the perfect mentality today. Weve been golfing pretty
well all season and today was a little

The Kalida golf team captured the 15-team Delphos Country Club Invitational on a chilly, windy and wet Saturday morning/afternoon at
the course. Members of the team were, from left, head coach Ken
Schnipke, Zach Erhart, Jeffrey Knueve, Trent Siebeneck, Evan Recker,
Collin Nartker and Noah Lambert. (DHI Media/Jim Metcalfe)
bit higher than what were used to over
18 holes but I thoght the kids handled
the different circumstances the weather
presented.
Spencerville was ninth at 381, with
Mitchell Youngpeter carding an 82 and
Chance Campbell 87.
We obviously miss Sam Reed; our
scores were much lower with him but he
is unable to golf right now, Spencerville
head man Mike Eilerman noted. That
forced our guys to step up even more.
Throw in the chilly and wet weather
and its more of a mental approach right
now. You knew today youd have some
bad holes and you knew youd just have
to move on. There were still some good
scores out there today and everybody
had to deal with the surroundings. This

is a learning day for us.

The Wildcats and Blue Jays were
next in 10th at 38 .
Carter Mox was low man for the
Red and White with an 88 and Ryan
Bullinger 93.
We were off our game today; we
allowed the weather to get into our
heads, Jefferson coach Chad Brinkman
said. Thats easy enough to do. It was
a cold morning; plus, I felt we were still
basking on our best team score in six
years from the other day and looking
ahead to our big NWC match (Monday)
with league-leading Bluffton. We need

Lincolnviews boys cross

country team turned in a solid
effort at the Ottawa-Glandorf
Blue and Gold Cross Country
meet Saturday at Memorial
Park.
The Lancers won the boys
team title in the Gold division, while standout runner
Bayley Tow took runner-up
honors as an individual.
Tow went head-to-head
Saturday morning with
rival Mycah Grandstaff
of Crestview in the Gold
Division. Grandstaff won the
race as he beat Tow to the
finish line. The two standout
runners ran nearly shoulder
to shoulder throughout the
race before Grandstaff pulled
away down the stretch to win
in 16:25.3 as Tow was second
in 16:27.9.
I think Mycah and
Bayley look at it the same
way; its a positive situation,
Crestview coach Jeff Bagley
said. They can go out there
and compete like crazy and
both of them are highly driven people. Its just a good,
good environment for them
to get better. Iron sharpens
iron and thats what they are
doing out there.
What I liked about the
race is that Mycah is a great
runner and there were several spots throughout the race
where he tried to pull away

16 teams with Curtis Pohlman leading the way with
a 10th-place finish and a time of 17:44. Also, the
St. Johns junior high girls team finished 5th out of
13 teams lead by Caroline Kopack 19th, Jenia Freewalt 21st and Josie Schulte 24th overall. (Submitted photo)
from Bayley and Bayley
responded before he got him
at the end. They both ran a
really solid time today. They
see each other a lot and each
time they race they step it up
and I was glad to see Bayley

respond and that motivated

our other kids, Lancer coach
Matt Langdon said.
Overall, the Lancer boys
won the Gold Division with
40 points, outdistancing second place St. Henry with 55

BATH TOWNSHIP Alyssa Manleys
hat trick paced homestanding Bath (9-0-0)
to a 5-0 girls soccer triumph over Fort
Jennings Saturday.
Manley scored at 9:18 of the first
half by dribbling through the defense
and taking the ball right to Fort Jennings
keeper Erin Osting (10 saves vs. 15 shots
on-goal).
Her second goal came at 7:34 of the
second half coming by dribbling
through the defense and launching one just inside the 18 to
make it 4-0.
Her third at 3:17 was on a
breakaway.
Alex Schroeder put home
a cross that the defense couldnt clear
at 14:07 of the second half and Ellie
Dackin made it 3-0 at 10:31 of the second on a 40-foot shot from the right side.
We knew Bath had a good team
coming in, so we changed our forma-

tion Friday for them. Our girls played it

very well the first half; that was one of
our best defensive halves all season and
we frustrated them, Musketeer coachg
Rodney Wagner explained. Bath came
out the second half and wore us down;
they scored three goals in about nine minutes, with seemingly every shot going in.
We were tired and couldnt adjust to their
play; they play with speed and great ball
movement. I am proud of the girls effort;
if wed have played like that all season,
some of the ties and losses would have
gone in our favor.
The Musketeers (2-4-2) had one shot
on-goal and Brittani Ulmer had one
save.

Zach Jellison was our fifth

guys feeding off each other
during the race that is a good
thing. We are pleased with
the third place finish.

Bengals lose A.J. Green but beat Falcons

Associated Press

CINCINNATI Without receiver

A.J. Green on the field to make a big
play, Andy Dalton called out to his running back whenever he was in a bind.
Somehow in all the commotion,
Giovani Bernard heard his name
and looked for the ball.
The second-year running back
picked up a depleted offense by
running for 90 yards and turning
Daltons under-duress passes into
big plays on Sunday, leading the
Cincinnati Bengals to a 24-10
victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
All around the field, the Bengals have
a good thing going right now.
They won their home opener and
improved to 2-0 for the first time since
2006 despite losing several key players
to injury, most notably Green.
The Pro Bowl receiver aggravated
an injured toe on his right foot, which
kept him out of practice last week. He
left during the opening series and didnt
catch a pass for the first time in his fouryear career.
Cincinnati still put up some impressive numbers against the Falcons (1-1),
who gave up nearly 500 yards for the
second straight game.
Mohamed Sanu caught three passes
for a team-high 84 yards and also threw
a 50-yard pass for the Bengals.
The centerpiece was Bernard, who
ran 27 times for 90 yards, including a
4-yard touchdown. He also caught a

team-high five passes for a career-high

79 yards, including a 46-yard catch-andrun when Dalton flipped the ball to him
as he was getting hit.
The Bengals wound up with 472
yards and averaged 6.8 yards per play.
Rookie Jeremy Hill ran for 74 yards and
a touchdown and the Bengals
rushed for 170 overall.
Cincinnatis biggest challenge was to shut down Matt
Ryan, coming off the best game
of his career. Ryan threw for
a club-record 448 yards and
three touchdowns in an opening
37-34 overtime win over the
Saints.
The Bengals blitzing defense got to
him. Ryan was 24-of-44 for 231 yards
with one touchdown and three interceptions, one of which set up Hills 1-yard
touchdown run for a 24-3 lead in the
third quarter.
Nothing new about the Bengals holding down a top passer. Last season,
they got the best of Aaron Rodgers,
Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, Andrew
Luck, Philip Rivers, Joe Flacco and Ben
Roethlisberger on their way to the AFC
North title.
Dalton was solid again, completing
15-of-23 for 252 yards without a sack
or interception for the second straight
game.
Dalton hit Sanu on a quick slant
against an all-out blitz during the third
quarter and the receiver turned it into an
easy 76-yard touchdown when corner-

back Robert Alford dived in front to try

to knock down the ball and missed.
Sanu also completed a 50-yard pass
off a pitch out from Dalton during the
Bengals wasteful first half. They piled
up 293 yards but managed only 10
points. Mike Nugent missed field goal
attempts of 38, 49 and 55 yards.
Cincinnatis depth was tested as several important starters went down, starting with Greens foot injury.
Already missing tight end Tyler Eifert,
the Bengals lost tight end Alex Smith to
an injured left biceps in the first half.
Right guard Kevin Zeitler hurt his right
calf in the first half and didnt return.
Pro Bowl linebacker Vontaze Burfict
left in the second half with a pinched
nerve in his neck after taking a teammates knee to the helmet. Burfict suffered a concussion in a season-opening
win at Baltimore and missed practice
during the week.
Browns 26, Falcons 24
CLEVELAND Billy Cundiff kicked a 29-yard
field goal with 3 seconds left. Cundiffs kick helped the
Browns (1-1) snap a 9-game losing streak in home
openers and gave rookie coach Mike Pettine his first
NFL win.
Brian Hoyer drove the Browns 85 yards in 14 plays
in the final 2:46 to set up Cundiffs winner. Hoyer completed several big passes, none more crucial than his
28-yarder to Andrew Hawkins with 13 seconds to go.
The Saints (0-2) rallied from a 13-point deficit to
take the lead on Mark Ingrams 1-yard TD run with
12:12 left. Drew Brees threw two touchdown passes
to Jimmy Graham and moved into fourth place on the
NFLs career passing list.
Down 24-23, Cleveland took over at its 4. Missing
suspended receiver Josh Gordon and without injured
Pro Bowl tight end Jordan Cameron and running back
Ben Tate, Hoyer calmly took the Browns down the field.

inning,and the Brewers beat the Cincinnati Reds 9-2 on Sunday.
Mark Reynolds added a solo shot in the
eighth as the Brewers won for the fourth time

jump-start what had been a struggling offense.
Garza struck out six and walked three. He is 2-0 with a sparkling 0.82 ERA in three starts against Cincinnati this year.
Todd Frazier hit his 26th homer in the sixth for Cincinnati,
which has lost five of its last six games against Milwaukee. Mike
Leake (11-12) gave up three runs and eight hits in six innings.
Milwaukee also got a solid performance from Jonathan
GB Lucroy, who reached four times via three hits and a walk. The

All-Star had a 2-run single in the fourth to give the Brewers a

10 3-0 lead.

It was 3-1 when Milwaukee put the game away in the seventh.

(Continued from page 6)

Kalida was 14th as a team

with 334 points as they were
led by Adam von der Embse
with a 32nd-place finish
in18:43.6.
In the girls Gold Division,
Crestviews Ashley Bowen
was fourth in 20:22.9.
Lincolnviews Abbie Enyart
was 15th (21:21) and Wayne
Traces Hollie Wannemacher
was 17th in 21:36.
As a team, the Lady
Lancers were sixth with 151
points and Crestview was
seventh with 163 points.
One of our top runners
didnt finish today, which
obviously hurt our team, but
our team was sixth so that
was good, Langdon said.
Abbie Enyard was 15th and
she ran a career best. She
is really coming along. The
girls are in a process of learning how to be good each
week and be consistent.
Kalida was the top local
team as they were fifth with
143 points. St. Henry won the
Gold Division with 58 points.
Katelyn Siebeneck led the
Wildcat ladies with a ninth
place finish in 21:08.8 and

Kalida

Kelly Doepker was 21st in

21:49.5.
We really ran well
today, Kalida coach Scott
Miller said. Our number
three runner didnt run today,
so I was happy with how the
other girls stepped up and
ran today. They did a nice
job. Kelly Doepker has been
working really hard and our
number four and five runners
ran hard today and stepped
up.
]St. Johns sophomore
Lexie Pohlman was 25th
in 22:04.2. Ottoville freshman McKenna Byrne was
37th in 22:45 and Elizabeth
Luersman was 38th in
22:50.8. Neither team had a
full squad.
The boys team ran really well, Miller added. We
were missing two runners
because of the ACT, but overall they ran really well and
got a lot of personal records
today. We had last weekend
off and we had two goods
week of practice and you saw
a lot of times come down
today on both sides.
Van Wert had solid days in
the Blue division as they won
both team titles.

(Continued from page 6)

Austin Lucas registered an 87 and

Derek Klausing 93 for the Blue and
Gold.
This was also a learning day for
our kids; we are just so young and they
really havent had the opportunity to
play in these kinds of conditions, Blue
Jay coach John Klausing said. I felt for
the most part, our kids did do a good job
of handling the course today overall and
Im proud of them. You have to have
the right frame of mind and they have
to learn that the hard way, whether they
need gloves on or a sweater and how to
deal with the wind and chill.
Ottoville was 11th at 386: Wesley
Markward put in an 84 and Brendon
Schnipke 91.
It kind of got to us today; Wes really
struggled today. You go from gorgeous
weather last week to this and its definitely a different approach, Ottoville
head man Jim Brown said. You have to
be able to grind it out today and, obviously, some players handled it better
than others. Weve got a lot of young
kids and hopefully, since well be here in
our league meet in a little over a week,

DETROIT With another big late-inning home run, the

Detroit Tigers reopened a 1 1/2-game AL Central lead
Ian Kinsler hit a go-ahead, 2-run homer in the seventh inning
and the Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians 6-4 Sunday for a
3-game sweep.
Kinslers homer off Bryan Shaw (5-5), his first
since Aug. 30, followed Rajai Davis infield single and
put the Tigers ahead 4-3.
Detroit widened its lead in the eighth inning
Sunday on C.C. Lees run-scoring wild pitch over a
shoulder of catcher Chris Gimenez during an intentional walk to Kinsler. Torii Hunter followed with a
run-scoring forceout.
Phil Coke (5-2) pitched a scoreless seventh for Detroit, which
won for the sixth time in seven games.
Joe Nathan gave up Carlos Santanas RBI double in the
ninth before getting his 32nd save in 38 chances and eighth in a
row. With runners on first and second and no outs, Yan Gomes
grounded into a double play and pinch-hitter Jason Giambi hit a
game-ending flyout.
Detroit starter Justin Verlander allowed three runs and six hits
in 5 2/3 innings, leaving his season ERA at 4.81. He is 7-8 with a
5.40 ERA since late May.
Clevelands Trevor Bauer gave up two runs one earned
and six hits in five innings. The Indians are five games back for
the ALs second wild card with 14 games left.
J.D. Martinez hit a solo homer in the fourth, a booming drive
into the center-field hedges for his 22nd home run this season.
Santanas sacrifice fly tied the score in the fifth and Blaine
Hardy relieved Verlander with two on in the sixth. Jose Ramirez
singled in the go-ahead run and Hardy hit Michael Brantley with
a pitch with the bases loaded.
Martinez pulled the Tigers to 3-2 with an RBI single in the
bottom half.

Van Wert won the boys

team title finishing with 45
points as Fairview was second with 110 points. The
Lady Cougars won the girls
Blue Division with 69 points
and Eastwood was second
with 82 points.
Overall things went pretty well. Anytime you walk
out of a meet with trophies,
its a blessing and there
were some solid teams here
today in Wauseon, Fairview
and Eastwood, not to short
change anyone, both on the
guys and girls side. Cougar
coach Brendon Moody said.
A victory on both sides is a
great thing. Im proud of how
both teams ran.
The Van Wert boys were
missing two of their top
seven runners because of the
ACT test Saturday morning
but they had other runners
step up and fill in.
Connor Holliday led five
Van Wert male runners in
the top 20 as he finished second in 16:35.2. Wauseons
Quintin Reiser won the race
in 16:34.1. The Cougars
Cade Fleming was fourth
(17:27), while Daniel Perry
was eighth (17:34), Jordan

well be better off for it.

Columbus Grove was 14th at 391,
with Brandon Hoffman shooting a 90
and Logan Hardeman 94.
Its where I expected us to be teamwise and individually, Bulldog coach
Travis Gallmeier said. Weve been in
that 190-200 range over nine holes
with good weather all season, so its
pretty good to be there with the bad
weather.
Fort Jennings finished last at 412 as
Sam Vetter was low with a 96 and Alex
Sealts 98.
St. Johns and Ottoville are in an
LCC quad 4 p.m. today, while Jefferson
hosts a tri (4 p.m.), Lincolnview and
Grove are in an NWC quad at Allen East
and Kalida is at Arlington (4:30 p.m).
Spencerville is in a Bluffton tri and
Crestview in a quad at home Tuesday.

Butler was14th (17:43) and

Nick Keber was 17th in
17:52.
We were missing our
number two and number
seven runners today (because
of the ACT) but we had some
of the other boys come in and
step up today and run well,
Moody said.
Junior Chloe Gamble led
the Lady Cougars with an
eighth place finish in 20:46.
Cassidy Meyers finished 11th
(21:17.7), Natalie Riethman
was 15th (21:30) and Julia
Springer was 20th (21:50).
Schealissa Williams was 21st
in 21:59.
The girls were coming
off a win in Tiffin and they
followed that up today with
a win, Moody said. Chloe
Gamble had a season best
time, she had been struggling
some. We scored three freshmen today and they are pulling their weight and do well.
We are a young team and that
is exciting for the future.
Elidas Alyssa Turrentine
finished 13th in 21:19.7. On
the boys side, Gaerid Littler
was 22nd in 18:14. The
Bulldogs finished 17th in the

lounging
in a bikini top at
her house because of her
weight, was inconsiderate,
irresponsible and, frankly,
offensive. You started off well,
advising her to consider her
mothers preference because
its her house, but your second
paragraph took a wrong turn.
You used your column to
imply she should not feel
comfortable in her own skin.
You assumed her doctor
thinks
shes
unhealthy,
knowing nothing about her
other than the fact shes
60 to 70 pounds more than
average. You assumed she
was complacent and her
weight is a problem, even
though you do not have access
to her medical history and are
not a physician. That response
serves no purpose other than
to
fat-shame
Offended
Daughter.
Even if she is unhealthy,
if she weighed two or three
times what she does now,
even if she lies around all day
in that bikini eating potato
chips and ice cream sundaes,
she still deserves respect as
a human being. She deserves

newspapers and online wrote

to tell me how angry they
were about my response to
that letter, accusing me of
fat-shaming. If anyone was
hurt by my reply, I sincerely
apologize,
because
my
remarks were not meant to be
rude or disrespectful. When I
called the young woman after
that column ran to apologize
if I had hurt her feelings and
read her my response to her
letter, she told me she was not
offended.
When I answer questions,
it is my responsibility to
be honest and direct. As
anyone who has read my
column knows, I am not
always politically correct.
When I saw her statement
that she was 60 to 70 pounds
overweight -- which is obese
-- and comfortable in her
own skin, my reaction was
alarm. If she doesnt become
proactive NOW, by the time
shes 35 she could be far
heavier.
Everyone knows the
many health complications
associated
with
obesity,

They are unusual

in middle-aged and
young adults, and
even more unusual in
childhood. But they
do occur, and some
young adults are at
increased risk for a
stroke.
Take, for example,
young women who
are thinking about
going on the birth
control pill. Oral
contraceptives boost
the risk of stroke, even
in younger women.
The risk is greater in
oral contraceptives
with higher doses of
estrogen, but these
are prescribed less
frequently today than
in the past.

losing weight may be
challenging, as I know from
personal experience, its
important to make beneficial
lifestyle changes to promote
healthy weight, just as it is
important to have healthy
self-esteem.
That young woman needs
to have a frank talk with her
doctor about whats causing
her to be so heavy. I told her
that when I talked to her. I also
suggested it might be helpful
to consult a nutritionist.
As to my comment about
her mother, I strongly suspect
what I said is true, and Ill
stand by it until I hear from the
woman telling me different.

New guidelines suggest how women can prevent a stroke

DEAR DOCTOR
K: Do women need
to
take
special
precautions
to
prevent a stroke?
DEAR READER:
Yes, they do -- and a
new set of guidelines
published
earlier
this year helps us
understand
what
those steps should
be. The guidelines
discuss stroke risk
factors
women
should consider from
adolescence to old age.
The first thing that
may be surprising
about the guidelines
is that they include
stroke
prevention
advice for young
women. Most strokes
occur in older people
(women and men).

Dr. Anthony L.
Komaroff, M.D.

Ask Doctor K

causing a stroke starts

to increase when
women reach age 35.
How big is the risk?
In women with no
other factors that also
increase the risk of
having a stroke (such
as high blood pressure
or smoking), taking a
low-dose
estrogen
contraceptive about
doubles the risk.
In women over
age 35 who also
smoke, the risk of
stroke
increases
considerably. I advise
such women to avoid
using
estrogencontaining
pills,
patches or devices.
I urge that more
strongly when the
woman has other risk
factors for stroke.
The
guidelines
note that about one
in 12 women develop
pre-eclampsia
or
other blood pressure
problems
during
pregnancy. Untreated
pre-eclampsia
can
lead
to
strokes.
The
guidelines
recommend
that
women who have had
pre-eclampsia, or are
at risk for developing
it, take low-dose
aspirin until delivery.

Pre-eclampsia
disappears
after
delivery. But women
who
develop
it
are more likely to
develop high blood
pressure later in life,
which then puts them
at risk for stroke if not
properly diagnosed
and treated.
The guidelines also
state that women who
have migraines with
aura have an increased
risk of stroke. Women
with this condition
should stop smoking
and consider taking
medications
to
prevent migraines.
Atrial fibrillation
is a fast and irregular
heartbeat. It is also
a leading cause of
stroke, more so in
women than in men.
Women with this
condition should take
a blood-thinning drug
to help prevent stroke.
The
guidelines
also recommend that
women aged 65 to
79 talk with their
doctor about taking a
daily baby aspirin (81
milligrams) to reduce
the risk of stroke.
So even though
strokes can occur in
women of all ages,
we now know how
to reduce the risks
considerably.

Brown bomber knocks

out his last name

extremely popular. Barrows

mother objected to her son
fighting, so he hid his gloves
in a violin case. The story
goes that when he filled out
the forms for one of his first
Joe Louis
amateur fights, there wasnt
enough room for his last name, Barrow, on
the paper. So he fought as Joe Louis, which
stuck for the rest of his career. He was the
heavyweight boxing champion from June 22,
1937, until March 1, 1949. He died in 1981.
Q: I love Charlie Chan movies. How many
are there, and how many Charlie Chans were
there? -- E.M.C., Plano, Texas
A: Charlie Chan is a fictional ChineseAmerican detective created by Earl Derr
Biggers. There were a total of 47 Charlie Chan
movies made from 1926 through 1949. There
were many actors who portrayed the detective
with countless words of wisdom. The three
with the most credits are Warner Oland (16
films), Sidney Toler (22 films) and Roland
Winters (six films). Peter Ustinov played Chan
in the critically panned The Curse of the
Dragon Queen in 1981.
Q: I have a question about Kate Smiths
TV show: I remember watching her in the
afternoon, but my husband insists
that she had a nighttime show. We
both agree it was on in the early
1950s. Who is right about the time
slot? -- H.C., Rutland, Vt.
A: You are both right. In the
afternoon, you were watching Kate
The Kate Smith Hour, which ran Smith
from 1950 to 1954. In late 1951,
she had an evening show, The Kate Smith
Evening Hour, which ran for less than a year.
In 1960, she had The Kate Smith Show, but
that ran for only six months.
Q: Do you know the story of the bank
building that was sent through the mail? My
grandfather used to talk about it, but I never
really believed him. -- N.L.B., Bedford, Ind.
A: Believe him -- its true!
In 1916, W.H. Coltharp of Vernal, Utah,
wanted to construct a new building for his
general store and an attached corner bank.
He wanted his structure to be modern, so that
meant using brick. Vernal is located in the
northeast section of Utah, which is not always
easily accessible, so the bricks would have to be
shipped 430 miles. The cost of shipping 80,000
bricks that far by rail and wagon was more than
four times as much as the bricks were worth.
Coltharp wrapped each brick and placed
them in 50-pound bundles (seven bricks per
bundle). He shipped the bricks via U.S. parcel
post at a considerable savings.
After the Bank of Vernal was completed,
locals gave it the nickname The Parcel Post
Bank. The bank still stands, but is now Zions
First National Bank.
G., Ankeny, Iowa
Q: I remember my dad taking me to a Boston
Braves football game when I was a little kid.
What happened to them? -- P.
A: The Boston Braves debuted in the NFL
in 1932. The team changed its name to the
Redskins the following year. In 1937, the team
moved to its current home in Washington, D.C.
Q: If someone is fired from his or her job, we
know what it means. But what does fire have to
do with losing a job? -- Y.N.S., Lakeland, Fla.
A: I found many explanations. Heres one:
Many years ago in England, if a village wanted
a person or family to leave, the family house
would be burned. In other words, they would
be fired.
Q: How did the Bartlett pear get its name?
-- L.Z., San Jose, Calif.
A: The popular fruit was first grown in
America on the farm of Cap. Thomas Brewer.
He sold his farm to Enoch Bartlett (17791860), who popularized the new strain of pear.
If you go to England and want a Bartlett
pear, youd need to ask for a Williams pear.
Q: To this day, my grandmother has a doily
on the arm of each chair and sofa. How did
the delicate mats get their name? -- O.S.D.,
Hickory, Tenn.
A: They were named after a 17th-century
London dry goods dealer whose last name was
Doily (or possibly Doyly). At one time, doily
meant genteel, affordable woolens.

Answers to Fridays questions:

The people of the land once known as Persia in
southwestern Asia always called their homeland Iran
or Land of the Aryans. Westerners started calling it
Persia in the sixth century B.C. taking the name
from Persis or Parsa (modern Fars), a region of southern Iran. In 1935, the countrys government officially
requested the nation be referred to as Iran.

Hurdles for Obama health law in 2nd sign-up season

WASHINGTON (AP) Potential
complications await consumers as
President Barack Obamas health care
law approaches its second open enrollment season, just two months away.
Dont expect a repeat of last years
website meltdown, but the new sign-up
period could expose underlying problems with the law itself that are less easily fixed than a computer system.
Getting those who signed up this year
enrolled again for 2015 wont be as easy
as it might seem. And the laws interaction between insurance and taxes looks
like a sure-fire formula for confusion.
For example:
For the roughly 8 million people
who signed up this year, the administration has set up automatic renewal. But
consumers who go that route may regret

it. They risk sticker shock by missing out on lower-premium options. And
they could get stuck with an outdated
and possibly incorrect government subsidy. Automatic renewal should be a last
resort, consumer advocates say.
An additional 5 million people or
so will be signing up for the first time
on HealthCare.gov and state exchange
websites. But the Nov. 15-Feb. 15 open
enrollment season will be half as long
the 2013-2014 sign-up period, and it
overlaps with the holiday season.
Of those enrolled this year, the
overwhelming majority received tax
credits to help pay their premiums.
Because those subsidies are tied to
income, those 6.7 million consumers
will have to file new forms with their
2014 tax returns to prove they got the

right amount. Too much subsidy and

their tax refunds will be reduced. Too
little, and the government owes them.
Tens of millions of people who
remained uninsured this year face tax
penalties for the first time, unless they
can secure an exemption.
Its the second open enrollment,
but the first renewal and the first tax
season where the requirements of the
Affordable Care Act are in place, said
Judy Solomon, vice president for health
policy at the Center on Budget and
Policy Priorities, which advocates for
low-income people, and supports the
law.
The fact that it is all going to be
occurring within an overlapping and relatively short time frame means that
there will be many issues, she added.

BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP)

Vermonts largest city
has a new success to add to
its list of socially conscious
achievements: 100 percent
of its electricity now comes
from renewable sources such
as wind, water and biomass.
With
little
fanfare,
the Burlington Electric
Department crossed the
threshold this month with the
purchase of the 7.4-megawatt
Winooski 1 hydroelectric
project on the Winooski River
at the citys edge.
When it did, Burlington
joined
the
Washington
Electric Co-operative, which
has about 11,000 customers
across central and northern
Vermont, which reached 100
percent earlier this year.
It shows that were able to
do it, and were able to do it
cost effectively in a way that
makes Vermonters really positioned well for the future,
said Christopher Recchia, the
commissioner of the Vermont
Department of Public Service.
Its part of a broader movement that includes a statewide goal of getting 90 percent of Vermonts energy from
renewable resources by 2050,
including electricity, heating
and transportation. Across
the state, Vermonters are urging their electric utilities to
provide them with renewable
sources of power, and the
utilities are listening, Recchia
said.
Its also a growing movement across the country, as
governments and businesses
seek to liberate themselves
from using power produced
by environmentally harmful
fossil fuels.
Diane Moss, the founding director of the Southern
California-based Renewables
100 Policy Institute, said
that she wasnt sure if any
other communities as large as
Burlington a city of 42,000
have reached 100 percent,
but that many are working
on it.
Its these front-runners
that are showing that its possible, Moss said.
Nearly 1,000 businesses both large and small and
many communities have also
committed to 100 percent, she
said.
Greensburg,
Kansas,
almost wiped out by a 2007
tornado, rebuilt with energy efficiency in mind. A
12.5-megawatt wind farm
went online in 2009, producing electricity in excess of that
consumed by the community
of 850, said Administrator Ed
Truelove.
