Council hears
preliminary
wastewater
plant options
Delphos, Ohio
Vol. 145 No. 83

DELPHOS City council learned Wednesday there is still

much work to be done before issues at the wastewater treatment plant can be addressed. Mike Atherine of Poggemeyer
Design Group of Bowling Green outlined a handful of the
options he and Mayor Michael Gallmeier, Safety Service
Director Shane Coleman and plant superintendent Todd Teman
put together after numerous meetings with manufacturers.
Weve got about 10 options weve looked at and only
about half of those are under more scrutiny to see if they are
viable and will suit the needs of Delphos, Atherine said.
The cost of the plans range from $6 million to $13 million.
The plant has seen membranes fail and blowers burn up
for the past three years and have found little recourse with
manufacturer Ovivo/Kubota, that built the plant. Five of the
10 plants outlined were from OVIVO with only two showing
promise to solve the plants shortcomings.
Plans were also submitted by GE/Zenon, Fibracast, Econity
and New Terra, which have not been entirely fleshed out with
more information needed from the manufacturers. A plan from
Orbal was dismissed because it called for totally replacing the
membrane treatment plant at a cost of $13 million.

DELPHOS A late
summer storm on Sept. 10
proved to be the death knell
for two of the Delphos Public
Librarys four boilers.
According to Director
Kelly Rist, during the storm,
the two sump pumps in the
basement of the library failed
to keep up with the influx of
water and 18 inches gathered
in the lower level. One pump
was brought back online
and an additional pump was
brought in but not before all
four of the boilers sustained
damage.
Two can be repaired
and those are seven years
old, Rist said. The two
older ones, which we can
only guess how old they
are right now, will need
replaced. It is isnt costeffective to repair them at
the age they are.
The library is currently
without heat.
Weve been OK because
the weather has cooperated with us but we need to
address this as colder weather
is coming, Rist added.

Drug Court program established in Van Wert

DHI Media Staff Report
news@delphosherald.com
VAN WERT The problem of
drugs in Van Wert County continues
to affect the people of the county.
The vast majority of cases in Van
Wert County Court of Common
Pleas involve drugs and a large part
of those involve the use of heroin.
In response, the court announced
Tuesday it is instituted a specialized
Drug Court.
A release from the court called the
situation a prescription opiate and
heroin epidemic that is plaguing the
entire county including the Van Wert
community.
The Drug Court program, called
A New Day, The Right Way is

an intensive outpatient drug treatment program. It uses the prescription
drug Vivitrol (Naltrexone) which will
be administered and monitored by a
physician. It is Designed to assist
individuals suffering from alcohol
and drug addiction toward the goal of
long term recovery, according to the
court release.
Those participating in Drug Court
must participate in an evidence-based
intensive outpatient substance abuse
treatment program through Westwood
Behavioral Health Center and also
attend existing community-based
support programs such as Alcoholics
Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous
and Celebrate Recovery, as well as
go through intensive drug testing and

supervision. Together, these three
steps are designed to assist those with
drug and alcohol dependence issues
to effectively manage their recovery
from the addiction.
Individuals wishing to participate
in Drug Court must be approved
by Judge Charles D. Steele of the
Van Wert Common Pleas Court.
Participants who qualify will receive
the prescription medication Vivitrol
which is made to give the person a
distaste for the drugs and blocks the
euphoria associated with prescription opiate and heroin use. It is not
an opiate-replacement drug as is the
case with such drugs as Methodone
and Suboxone.
In addition to the medical and

substance abuse interventions, the
participants will appear regularly
before Judge Steele who will, with
the aid of the treatment team, continually monitor the participants progress and compliance. A Drug Court
Coordinator has been employed by
Westwood Behavioral Health Center
to administer the program and insure
communication between the agencies
involved.
The program is funded by TriCounty Mental Health and Addiction
Services Board, Ohio Medicaid, private insurance, private donations and
the Special Projects Fund of the Court
of Common Pleas.

Community urged to Live United by

helping boost blood supply at Day of Caring
LIMA The entire Allen County
community is being challenged to Live
United by helping to increase the local
blood supply during the Allen County
Day of Caring Blood Drive.
The event will take place 7 a.m.6:30 p.m. Oct. 21 at the American Red
Cross Chapter House, located at 610
S. Collett St. in Lima. All presenting
donors will be entered into a drawing
for four $50 gas cards courtesy of Tom
Ahl Family of Dealerships. There will
also be free hamburgers and malts for all
presenting donors courtesy of Kewpee
Hamburgers. Presenting donors will also
receive an American Red Cross T-shirt.
Every two seconds, someone in
America depends on lifesaving blood
and that blood can only come from
volunteer donors. There is no substitute
for your donation. By spending about an

hour of your time donating blood, you
have the potential to help save as many
as three lives.
This important partnership between
United Way of Greater Lima
and the American Red Cross
aims to help maintain sufficient blood supplies for
hospital patients, said
Sharyn Whitman, CEO of the
Indiana-Ohio Blood Services
Region of the American Red
Cross. We hope the Day
of Caring encourages more
people to give the gift of life.
The goal is to collect
more than 110 units of blood during
this years drive. As an added incentive,
all presenting blood donors during the
month of October will be entered into
a drawing for a $5,000 Visa gift card
courtesy of Suburban Propane.

How to donate blood
Simply download the American Red
Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS
(1-800-733-2767) to make
an appointment or for more
information. All blood types
are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A
blood donor card or drivers
license or two other forms
of identification are required
at check-in. Individuals who
are 17 years of age (16 with
parental consent in some
states), weigh at least 110
pounds and are in generally good health
may be eligible to donate blood. High
school students and other donors 18 years
of age and younger also have to meet
certain height and weight requirements.

Dear EarthTalk: A friend of mine recently stopped
using skin and beauty products with parabens in
them. What are parabens and should we all be avoiding them?
Betsy Johnson, Port Chester, NY
First commercialized in the 1950s, parabens are a group
of synthetic compounds commonly used as preservatives in
a wide range of health, beauty and personal care products. If
the product you are using contains methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben and isobutylparaben, it has
parabens.
These ingredients are added to deodorants, toothpastes,
shampoos, conditioners, body lotions and makeups, among
other products, to stop the growth of fungus, bacteria and
other potentially damaging microbes. Researchers have
also found that some 90 percent of typical grocery items
contain measurable amounts of parabens, which is why
even those who steer clear of potentially harmful personal
care products also carry parabens around in their bloodstreams.

AGRIBUSINESS
Motorists, farmers should be

aware of other road traffic
BY JAMES HOORMAN
Putnam County Extension Ag Educator
news@delphosherald.com
The following article was written
by Ed Lentz, Hancock County Extension
Educator and revised by Jim Hoorman.
Harvest season has begun in Putnam
County and during this time, motorists
should be aware they will be sharing rural
roads with tractors, combines, grain carts
and other farm machinery. Keep in mind, all
of the roads in this area pass through farm
country and may have farm equipment traveling on them.
Motorists need to be prepared for these
slow-moving vehicles and to patiently remind
themselves that agriculture is a major industry that adds to economic health and wellbeing of our community. Vehicle collisions
are often the result of differences in speed
between slower-moving farm equipment and
passenger cars and trucks. Many times the
vehicle driver has not allowed enough time
to react when they recognize farm equipment
on the road.
Farmers also need to think about safety
and be considerate of other drivers. It is
critical they do their part to be seen on the
road. They also need to take extra caution
since they are often working long hours in
isolated environments and may suffer from
fatigue when leaving fields and enter the
road system.
The Agricultural Safety team of the
Ohio State University Department of Food,
Agricultural and Biological Engineering has
made a list of safety tips for farmers and nonfarmers sharing the road.
Here are some tips for farmers driving
farm equipment:
Mount a Slow Moving Vehicle (SMV)
emblem to the last piece of equipment being
hauled. The emblem should be pointed up,
placed 2-6 feet above the ground and as near
to rear center as possible.
Stay alert at all times to avoid a serious
accident. Do not use a cell phone or two-way
radio while operating equipment on public
roads.
Keep a constant lookout for pedestrians,
animals, mailboxes, steep ditch embankments and other roadway obstacles.
Slow down for sharp curves, areas that
are hard to see due to trees or shrubs or when
going down a hill.
Consider using an escort vehicle to follow behind.
Be cognizant of high traffic times, usually mornings and late afternoons.
Tips for motorists:
Farm machinery has a legal right
Elida FFA places 5th in state finals

The Elida FFA Agricultural Engineering Team placed fifth in the Ohio
FFA Career Development Event (CDE) recently held at the Agricultural
Engineering facilities at the Ohio State University. Team members were
(left to right) Travis Watkins, who placed 10th high individual, Jared Blymyer
19th, Clark Etzler 24th and Hayley Wagner 23rd. The contest consisted of
calibrating a planter, welding, soil conservation and a team event on plumbing which the team had the second-best score. To qualify for this CDE, the
team members had to take a written test last spring and only the top 10
teams in the state qualified for the finals. (Submitted photo)
Farmers group seeks tweaks to ag-related bill

COLUMBUS (AP)
The Ohio Farmers Union
plans to seek changes in
a water quality and agriculture-related bill thats
pending in the Legislature,
the groups president said.
Among other provisions, the bill currently
calls for transferring the
states agricultural pollution abatement program
which focuses on livestock farming from
the Ohio Department of
Natural Resources to the
states agriculture department.
Farm fertilizer runoff
has been under increased
scrutiny with the increasing number of harmful
algal blooms on Lake
Erie. The algae growth is
fed by phosphorus mainly
from the runoff and sewage treatment plants.
Blooms of blue-green
algae have been on the
rise in western Lake Erie
for more than a decade but
the issue has taken center
stage since early August.
Thats when toxins produced by algae fouled the
water supply for 400,000
people in northwestern
Ohio and southeastern
Michigan.
Toledo, which is Ohios
fourth-largest city, was
forced to issue a do-notdrink advisory for a little
more than two days.
Joe Logan, president
of Ohio Farmers Union,
said the pending legislation can act as an important part of Ohios effort
to control nutrient runoff
and the algal blooms it
can feed.
The information we
have to work with today
tells us that the there is a

problem in the Lake Erie
watershed, but not the specific sources or locations,
Logan said in a statement.
The organization will
seek changes in the Ohio
bill to address a so-called
manure loophole in state
regulations where manure
distribution from a regulated location is outsourced,
he said. The groups proposal would require all
operators of confined animal feeding operations or
their contractors to report
how much manure is delivered to others and where
it goes.
The Ohio Farmers
Union also wants to allow
soil and water conservation districts to share data
to help develop strategies
for reducing watershed
pollution.
to use public roads just as other motor

vehicles.
Farm machinery can unexpectedly
turn onto a public road from a field or
driveway.
Farm machinery travels slower than
normal traffic, often at speeds of 25 miles
per hour or less. Automobile drivers must
quickly identify farm equipment and slow
down immediately to avoid rear end crashes.
Farm machinery operators may not be
able to see you because of the large equipment or a load can block part of their rear
view. If you cannot see the driver, the driver
cannot see you.
Slow-moving farm machinery traveling
less than 25 miles per hour should display a
slow-moving vehicle emblem on the back of
the equipment. This is a quickly identifiable
sign to other motorists.
Machinery that is half on the road and
half on the shoulder may suddenly move
completely onto the road.
Extra-wide farm machinery may take
up more than one lane to avoid hitting
obstacles such as mailboxes and road signs.
More information on rural roadway safety may be found in the OSU Fact Sheet,
Boosting Visibility of Ag Equipment (ohioline.osu.edu/aex-fact/pdf/AEX_598_08.
pdf) and on the OSU Ag Safety and Health
website: agsafety.osu.edu.
Update on Palmer and Spiny
Amaranth: So far, Palmer Amaranth has
been only found on one farm northwest
of Continental. Spiny Amaranth is more
widespread and has been found southeast
of Kalida on two farms and is being investigated on two other farms northeast of
Kalida. Spiny Amaranth is easier to control
and does not have the aggressive growth of
the Palmer Amaranth weed species; however, both are considered noxious weeds and
should be controlled. Be careful removing
weeds because the weed seed can be easily
spread.
Farmers should watch for patches of
unknown weeds at harvest and notify the
Putnam County Extension office. Avoid
harvesting the weedy patches until the
weeds can be identified. Some farmers
have indicated they plan to plow more
fields. Our recommendation is to plow
only when you have an extremely infested
field. Once you plow a field, you are trying to bury the seed which can last three
to five years in the soil. After plowing,
avoid doing any tillage for three to five
years so that the weed seed remains buried. Plowing fields should be considered
a last resort.
Soy buyers prefer predictability of U.S. shipments Paulding County OSU

Soy checkoff study compares cost, transit times
of soy shipments from U.S., Brazil, Argentina
ST. LOUIS - Some international buyers prefer U.S. soy to
that from top competitors Brazil and Argentina because they
can count on it reaching them in a timely manner, according
to a new soy-checkoff-funded study.
In fact, foreign soy buyers often pay as much attention to
the timeliness of a shipment delivery as they do to the price.
Thats because late shipments can be expensive for buyers, as
they incur costs in trying to find replacement crop, slowing
down crush facilities and other problems that arise when shipments dont arrive in the time frame that was promised.
Our industry depends on the reliability of our transportation system to keep us competitive in the global market, said
Dwain Ford, soybean farmer from Kinmundy, Illinois, and
United Soybean Board (USB) International Opportunities
Target Area coordinator. This study really shows the advantage the roads, rails and rivers give us and how important it is
to maintain and improve our infrastructure.
Conducted in partnership with the checkoff-supported Soy
Transportation Coalition, the study gathered input from buyers in
China, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam to get firsthand reports on the
timeliness of shipments and the repercussions late shipments have on

their businesses. In most of these markets, U.S. shipments were the

most predictable, with several participants adding that they prefer to
buy from the United States because of this predictability.
Argentina has the advantage when it comes to shipping
costs because of its relatively short distances from the growing areas to major ports for export. But U.S. soy rises to the
top because of the relatively short amount of time it takes for
soybeans to move from the growing areas to export position,
which greatly impacts the United States edge in delivery
predictability. Even though U.S. soybeans have the longest
distances to travel, the extensive U.S. rail and river infrastructures move these beans quickly, and the port infrastructure
allows for timely loading and limited delays. Both Brazil and
Argentina have significantly less rail and underdeveloped
inland waterway systems, so roads are the main mode used to
move products from growing areas to export position.
Its great to see the infrastructure here in the United States
is still doing its job, added Ford. But if our competitors
continue to update their infrastructure and we dont, we could
easily fall behind. Its vital to U.S. soybean farmers and the
U.S. soy industry that we protect this advantage.
The 70 farmer-directors of USB oversee the investments
of the soy checkoff to maximize profit opportunities for all
U.S. soybean farmers. These volunteers invest and leverage
checkoff funds to increase the value of U.S. soy meal and oil,
to ensure U.S. soybean farmers and their customers have the
freedom and infrastructure to operate, and to meet the needs
of U.S. soys customers. As stipulated in the federal Soybean
Promotion, Research and Consumer Information Act, the
USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has oversight responsibilities for USB and the soy checkoff.

quickly and require less pain
medication when their room
had a window that provided
a view of trees. Living in a
home surrounded by woods,
meadows or other natural setting can increase the attention capacities of children and
generally improve their mental health. The net cooling
effect of a young, healthy tree

60+ million street trees have
an average value of $525 per

Coalition invites community

to form human pink ribbon
Coalition invites community members to wear

pink and join friends in forming a human
pink ribbon at 11 am. Oct. 18 on the campus
of the University of Northwestern Ohio. The
gathering will commemorate National Breast
Cancer Awareness Month.
The goal of the human ribbon is to draw
attention to the high rate of breast cancer
incidences in Allen, Hardin and Putnam counties. Approximately 235 women out of every
100,000, ages 45-65, in these three counties combined will contract breast cancer.
The state of Ohio average is approximately
195 per 100,000, according to the Susan
G. Komen for the Cure Northwest Ohio
Community Profile Report.
Breast cancer touches everyone. This
symbolic gesture of forming the human pink
ribbon is simply an effort to raise attention to
that fact, said Darlene Weyer, DO, medical
director of Lima Memorial Health Systems
participant must wear pink. Pink accessories

will be available. Arranging the ribbon, which
will be captured in photographs by Michael
Ayers, will take approximately 15 minutes.
The Breast Cancer Awareness Coalition,
formed in 2011 and serving Allen, Hardin and
Putnam counties is sponsoring the event. The
coalition includes representatives from the
HCF; Ohio State University; Ohio Northern
University; Allen, Putnam and Hardin County
Health Departments; Proctor and Gamble;
Susan G. Komen for the Cure; American
Cancer Society; St. Ritas Medical Center;
Lima Memorial Health System; Bluffton
Hospital; The Lima News; West Central Ohio
Health Ministries; HRJ Hair Solutions; several cancer survivors, and many others business professionals.

Lady Mustangs sink Wildcats

Not all fouls
treated the same?

Musings
By JIM METCALFE
DHI Media Sports Editor
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
We all know the National Football League is trying to
make the game safer.
It levies big fines for safeties and other defensive
backs, for an instance, for what could be termed
head-hunter plays guys leading with the helmet
on helpless or not so helpless receivers across the
middle.
Dont get me started on how hits on the quarterback
almost have to be approved beforehand especially
when asking 300-pound men or 250-pound athletes to
do impossible things like stopping on a dime.
However, it seems as if defensive players are open
season.
Take the fine that was supposedly levied against
Denver Broncos tight end Julius Thomas on his chop
block against Arizonas Calais Campbell Sunday, a
move that Thomas was sorry for and claimed was
unintentional/a lack of communication.
Apparently, it was only for $8,286 wonder why is
was such a round number?
It was his first offense so that could be it.
Heres my beef: guys can see their careers end with
these plays Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians
originally termed it the worst play hed seen in 37 years
of coaching and was absolutely on purpose.
We have seen running backs/wide receivers/tight ends
literally grab and twist the facemasks of defenders
about ready to rip the players head off and roll it down
the street like a bowling ball and yet no flag or fine.
I can think of a certain play earlier this season involving a Cincinnati Bengals player he was the offended
one that got constant replay.
Why the discrepancy?
I understand the concussion situation these can end
careers and I applaud trying to take the dirty players
out of the game.
However, defensive players also can get hurt and have
their careers come to an end and it doesnt seem to have
the same outrage or concern.

HARROD It took
three days to finally kick off
the Jefferson at Allen East
girls soccer clash stormy
weather and lack of referees forced postponements
Monday and Tuesday.
When the match actually happened Wednesday
at Allen East High School,
the hosts used the wind to
full advantage for a 3-1
Northwest Conference victory.
The Mustangs (12-2-2,
5-0 NWC) used the backing of a strong and steady
easterly wind and a bright
sun to get a 3-1 edge in the
first half.
In the 31st minute, the
hosts got on the board via a
dribble through a run down
the middle of the defense
and sophomore Leah Casey
beat Jefferson junior keeper
Jessica Pimpas (11 saves versus 16 shots) for a 1-0 edge.
Casey did it again with
25:42 left in the opening half.
She took a back cross pass
from the right touch line from
junior Savannah Silone and
deposited the 18-yarder from
the middle to the right side
for a 2-0 lead.
The Lady Wildcats (8-52, 3-1 NWC) countered at
16:58. Freshman Kendall
Marquiss out of the middle found sophomore
Arianna Knebel on the right
wing. Knebel pushed the ball
forward and fired a 16-yarder
low and to the left side that
got by sophomore keeper
Kassidy Reneau (6 saves vs.
12 shots) for a 2-1 deficit.
The Mustangs took to the
attack and kept firing.
At
21:20,
Caseys
17-yarder hit the crossbar
and remained in play, with
Pimpas finally getting the
orb.
However, Pimpas could

as Allen Easts Heather Joyner moves in during the teams girls soccer clash at
Allen East High School Wednesday. (DHI Media/Jim Metcalfe)
not contain the next good
opportunity. At 13:37, Casey,
near the touch line on the
right side, found Silone on
the wing, where she went
high side left for a 3-1 lead.
The Wildcats had a chance
to again get within one at
12:40 on a free kick from
senior Kylee Haehn but her
30-yarder got caught up in the
wind and fl0ated over the top.
Pimpas denied Caseys
shot with 32 ticks left to preserve a 3-1 halftime deficit.
The Red and White then
had the wind in the second
half but it died down some.
As well, the Mustangs
didnt allow them many open
looks inside the 18-yard box,
forcing shots from over the
top.
Casey continued to be a
pain in the proverbial neck
of the Wildcat defenders
but either was off target or
denied by Pimpas.
The best try the Mustangs
had was at 15:00. Off a cor-
ner kick from the right side

by Silone, the orb hit off a
defender and eearly into the
goal but it hit the right post
and a defender kicked it out
of danger.
The visitors also had trouble finding the target or Reneau
came up with the saves.
Their best tries came at
6:15 when Haehn was just
over the bar from 20 yards;
at 4:03, when Knebel also
missed just over the top from
17 yards; and with 59 ticks
to go, when Haehn tried a
20-yarder from the middle
but hit the bar junior
Logan Hamiltons header
from 10 yards was wide left.
We were in catchup mode
most of the night. You use
so much energy doing that
it wears you out; we didnt
have a lot left at the end but
the girls left in all out there,
Jefferson coach Josiah Stober
noted. Part of dealing with
the wind is a mindset, a mentality, of not letting it bother
you. We were trying to survive the first half but they

have some players that make
things happen. Then, when
we did get the wind, it had
died down some. Plus, just
going against it for 40 minutes gets to you.
Jefferson returns to its
home pitch tonight in hosting
NWC foe Bluffton at 5 p.m.
Were starting to really
play well together, especially
defensively. The last couple
seaons, we struggled in that
area, Mustang coach Lamar
Houston explained. How far
weve come from last year
to this year is a testament
to the girls. Plus, we have
some players that we can go
through to get offense and
opportunities. Weve created
a lot this year but struggle
finishing; we have done that
more lately.

saw Joey Loganos talent

Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Joey Logano was

pushed into the Sprint Cup Series as a freshfaced, budding superstar barely old enough to
drive at NASCARs national level.
When Joe Gibbs Racing chose him to
replace Tony Stewart in 2009, Logano moved
quickly into one of NASCARs top rides with
out-of-whack expectations built by glowing
recommendations from veteran drivers.
It was quickly apparent that Logano
would need years to properly
fill Stewarts seat at JGR and
the organization had to make a
change after four seasons and
just two victories. Roger Penske was fast to
grab Logano, who has blossomed into the
driver many thought hed be when he turned
18 in 2008 and finally became eligible to race
at NASCARs top level.
Loganos win Sunday at Kansas Speedway
was his career-best fifth of the season and
earned him an automatic berth into the
third round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup
Championship. After the victory, Penske
thanked Joe and J.D. Gibbs for giving Logano
four years of seat time and breaking him in.
Probably have to send (JGR) a check,
Penske joked.
Logano heads into Saturday nights race at

Television: Golf Channel (TodaySunday, 5-8 p.m., 8:30-11:30

Last year: Jimmy Walker
won at CordeValle in San Martin
for the first of his three early
season victories. Vijay Singh
was second, two strokes back.
Last event: Europe won the
Ryder Cup on Sept. 28, beating the United States 16 1/2-11
1/2 at Gleneagles in Scotland. Justin
Rose went 3-0-2 to lead Europe with
four points.
Notes: The tournament opens the
2014-15 season. Walker is in the
field along U.S. Ryder Cup teammates
Matt Kuchar and Hunter Mahan and
European team member Lee Westwood.
Johnny Miller, part of Silverados
ownership group, is the tournament host
and honoree. The Hall-of-Famer won the
Kaiser International at Silverado in 1974
and 1975. Former Stanford players
Patrick Rodgers and Cameron Wilson
received sponsor exemptions. The
Shriners Hospitals for Children Open is
next week in Las Vegas, followed by The
Charlotte Motor Speedway at the top of the

Chase rankings and confident hes a legitimate title contender with his No. 22 Team
Penske crew. Its a spot Greg Zipadelli always
believed Logano could reach.
Zipadelli was Stewarts crew chief at JGR
and spent three seasons atop the pit box with
Logano before Zipadelli moved into a management role at Stewart-Haas Racing.
We asked him to do something he probably wasnt ready to do, Zipadelli said. He
did the best he could at the time and I think he
got beat up over it.
Logano left JGR with 41
top-10 finishes in 144 starts in
the No. 20. He also won five
poles but never earned a spot in the Chase. In
his first season with Penske last year, he had
career-highs in top-5s, top-10s, laps led and
made the Chase.
I think the change was good for him. He
went to a group that was excited about having him not that Gibbs wasnt, but they
made different choices, Zipadelli added. We
pushed him pretty early. There was never a
day I didnt think that kid had talent.

(Continued from page 6)

Heres why I think there should be even more outrage. Helmetto-helmet hits are generally bang-bang plays with very little time
to react most DBs are looking to play the ball and break up the
pass, not end a guys career, and have to react quickly to avoid
contact, almost an impossibility.
How many of us have scratched our heads at calls when DBs
lead with the shoulder and still get flagged?
What Thomas did was not bang-bang; he immediately went for
the knees from the side when Campbell was looking elsewhere.
The NFL outlawed the crack-back block this year with that in
mind, which is a good move, as well as calling for illegal hands to
the face on both sides of the line of scrimmage.
All I am writing is be consistent when it comes to this.
A running back can get hurt when his facemask is yanked; so
can a DB. It shouldnt matter what side of the ball they are on.
I dont know if we should go as far as Arians and his suggestion that Thomas be out as long as Campbell is it was a
personal foul, to be sure but that may become a real possibility
in the future.
We shall see.

NFL owners see video on domestic violence

Associated Press
NEW YORK The presentation on

domestic violence given to NFL owners
on Wednesday included a video by a
former player appealing for recognition
and action.
Joe Ehrmann, a defensive tackle for
10 pro seasons (1973-82), beseeches
viewers to imagine what it would be
like to see a loved one being subjected
to abuse. He then urges intervention to
curb such behavior.
Think about the role you have to
raise up a generation of men that are
going to have the clarity, have the moral
courage to call out other men, Ehrmann
says.
The video is part of a 40-minute presentation put together by the league with
the help of a group of outside advisers.
The goal is to educate everyone in the
NFL about the dangers of spousal abuse,
child abuse, sexual assault and other
domestic violence topics.
It was very thorough, it was good,
Steelers President Art Rooney said.
Deana Garner, the leagues director of player engagement and education, said the educational program being
implemented will examine workplace
policy, disciplinary considerations and
increasing understanding of the prevalence in society of these issues and how
it impacts the NFL.
So many people dont understand
how complicated domestic violence is.
This is a unique crime committed across
all demographics.
Garner was encouraged by the reaction and input the presentation received
from the owners.
In a memo to owners this week,
Commissioner Roger Goodell outlined
how the NFL will re-examine its personal conduct policy. These are the first
league meetings since Goodell admitted he was wrong in giving Baltimore
Ravens running back Ray Rice only a
2-game suspension for punching his
then-fiancee in an elevator. Following a
torrent of criticism, Goodell announced
stiffer penalties for future domestic violence cases. After video of the punch
was released, the Ravens cut Rice and
Goodell suspended him indefinitely.
Rice has since appealed the suspension.
Other abuse cases involving Vikings
star running back Adrian Peterson,
Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer
and Panthers defensive end Greg Hardy
also have been made public. All three
are on an exempt list, suspended but still
being paid.
The goal of the NFL educational program of which the video is a part is to
create a better understanding of domestic violence, sexual assault and child
abuse. It will concentrate on explaining
the impact on victims, families and
perpetrators; how to avoid becoming
a perpetrator or a silent bystander; and
how to intervene.
Garner said the program will be
implemented immediately, with visits
to several teams in October and to
every team by the end of the season.
Owners, team executives, coaches, players and league personnel also
will receive instruction.
The owners were particularly
eager to have the educational
sessions scheduled for their
teams, Garner added: Men play
a critical role in reducing domestic violence by being active in
interventions. Step in. Speak out.
Have thoughtful conversations.
Thats exactly what is stressed in the
video by Ehrmann, who runs an organization called Coach For America, and
has been one of the speakers who visits
NFL teams during what the league calls
professional development sessions.
Lisa Friel, vice president of the Sexual
Misconduct Consulting & Investigations
division for T&M Protection Resources,
is one of the advisers helping the
NFL develop and carry out the educational program. She expected laserfocused attention from the owners on
Wednesday and she saw just that.
It is important with this kind of education to start at the top and have it filter
down, Friel said. From the owner to
the guy in the locker room who washes
uniforms.
She also anticipates long-term benefits beyond team and league organizations.
A lot of NFL athletes have been
leaders throughout their lives, she
added. We can tap into that leadership
role and it can help empower others.
Rita Smith, another adviser to the
league on domestic violence, has had
conversations with the NFL since 1998
about such educational programs. She
noted that many owners asked about
how to make sure everyone in our
clubs organization has access to educational courses.
Their capacity to influence the dialogue being said inside football at the
youth and high school, college and professional level is pretty huge, added
Smith, the former executive director of
the National Coalition Against Domestic
Violence. Theres also the trickle down
to the fans, family members and the
sponsors. Its hard to measure the impact
this could have.
The independent investigation into
how the NFL handled the Rice case
being conducted by former FBI director Robert Mueller could take several
months, according to New York Giants
owner John Mara, a liaison between the
league and Mueller.
Before the video, owners approved
the sale of the Buffalo Bills to Terry and
Kim Pegula in the morning.
Approval was a slam dunk as the
Pegulas gained unanimous support from
the 31 other owners and strong

applause, too.
The Pegulas, who already own the
NHLs Buffalo Sabres, expect the sale
to be finalized by the end of the week.
That payment would be for $1.4 billion.
Longtime Bills owner
Ralph Wilson died in March,
prompting the sale.
Buffalo sports fans were
concerned the Bills could be
moved out of state if purchased by another group. But
the Pegulas are committed to
the Buffalo area.
Poll: Most NFL fans think
Goodell should keep job, Peterson can
play if cleared by court: Most NFL
fans believe Goodell should keep his
job after his handling of recent domestic
violence cases and Peterson should only
be allowed to play again if he is found
not guilty of felony child abus, according to new Associated Press-GfK polls.
Only 32 percent say Goodell should
lose his job over the issue, with 66 percent saying he shouldnt.
Support for his handling of the cases
is much lower, though, with 42 percent
saying they disapprove. The same percentage neither approve nor disapprove,
with just 15 percent approving.
The poll shows strong support for
keeping Rice off the field for at least
some period of time. Forty-three percent of fans say Rice should never be
allowed to play again. Just 7 percent say
he should be able to play now, with 49
percent saying he should be permitted to
return after missing more time.
Respondents were more receptive to
the idea of Peterson returning to the
field. Peterson is currently on paid leave
while he faces child abuse charges.
Fifty-four percent of fans say he
should be allowed to play again if he is
found not guilt; another 29 percent say
he should be able to return regardless of
the cases outcome. Only 15 percent say
he should never play again.
Tentative December trial date set
in Peterson case
CONROE, Texas Peterson is hoping to go to trial as soon as possible.
Whether he returns to the playing field
any time soon is another question entirely.
A Texas judge on Wednesday set a
tentative Dec. 1 trial date for Peterson
to face a felony charge of child abuse
after using a wooden switch to discipline his 4-year-old son in suburban
Houston earlier this year. Defense attorney Rusty Hardin said after the hearing
that Peterson is chomping at the bit to
defend himself publicly.
But the case might not be tried before
the end of the year, meaning Peterson
who is on paid leave from the team
may not be back on the field this season.
The Vikings final regular-season game
is Dec. 28.

NASCAR
The alternative for the 6-time Sprint

Cup Series champion is leaving it all
up to the chaotic, utterly unpredictable Talladega Superspeedway where a
drivers fate can careen out of his hands
in an instant.
Im not in the position I want to
be in, Johnson, who won the title last
year, said Wednesday during a promotional appearance at UAB. I hate not
being in control of my own destiny. The
race in Kansas went about as bad as it
could. We need to turn things around in
Charlotte so we dont show up to our
most treacherous racetrack needing a
win.
Johnson is last in the 12-driver field,
with four getting knocked out after next
weekends Talladega race. The only way
to control his own fate is to pick up his

second straight win at Charlotte, securing himself an automatic berth into the
next round. Logano claimed a spot by
winning at Kansas where Johnson didnt
help his own case.
He was involved in an early accident
and finished 40th, his worst Chase finish
since the 2005 season finale.
There are worse tracks for Johnson
to head to in such a precarious position
than Charlotte Motor Speedway, where
he won for a record seventh time in
Mays Coca-Cola 600.
Hes won twice at Talladega, for that
matter.
The huge superspeedway and its
ever-present threat of race-altering
crashes can work for you or against you.
Johnson knows he could advance based
on points with a strong performance.
He is seeking a record-tying seventh series title, which would place him

alongside Hall-of-Famers Richard Petty
and the late Dale Earnhardt, but feels
this is the most highly-pressurized situation hes been in since Homestead in
2012, where he and Brad Keselowski
were going head to head for the title. A
mechanical problem ended Johnsons
chances.
His Hendrix Motorsports teammate
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is only one spot ahead
of him, while Keselowski is 10th and
another teammate, Kasey Kahne, stands
ninth.

if you have any options other than
being a positive, stable, masculine

suspect the mothers wishes will

DEAR ABBY: Recently a friend
of mine went to a ritzy gala. When
dinner was served, she closed her
eyes and said a brief and quiet
prayer. When she opened them, the
people at her table were appalled.
One guest admonished her, telling
her she shouldnt pray out of
respect for others.
Was she wrong? Whats the
proper etiquette? Should she stop
saying her grace? -- GRACE
BEFORE DINNER
DEAR GRACE: As long as
your friend said her prayer quietly
and didnt impose it upon the other
attendees, she did nothing wrong.
Actually, the rule of etiquette is to
refrain from criticizing the table
manners of other guests -- and
the person who admonished your
friend was rude.

Carla, had her first child. The

biological father is from another
country. When she told him she
was pregnant, he refused to have
anything to do with the child, so I
decided to take over the role as a
father.
I have been with Carla and my
son since she found out about the
pregnancy. When she was in her
last trimester, we decided to give a
shot to the relationship and become
a couple. Everything was great. She
had our child. When he was born,
I really became a father. But after
two years, everything didnt go as
we planned and we broke up.
Now Carla says Im not the
father, and she wont give my son
my last name. I dont know what to
do. I really want him to be known as
my son, but without my last name,
everyone sees me only as the guy
who is raising another guys son.
The breakup took a huge toll
on me. During our last fight, she
said I should forget about being
the father and accept that Im only
the godfather. Please tell me what
I can do. -- SAD DAD IN EL

Dont get caught up in trivial

disagreements. Your drive
to help others will put you in
contact with a wide assortment
of people this year. Getting
along with others will be the
determining factor when it
comes to reaching your goals.
Diplomacy equals success.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Discord and disappointment
will lead to minor mishaps.
Face relationship issues that
are causing you stress in order
to sleep better. If you feel more
at peace, you will be less likely
to get sick.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.

22) -- Dont be in such a rush.
If your schedule is too full,
its time to slow things down.
Minor accidents are more likely
to occur if you are distracted or
preoccupied.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) -- Tension and stress
can be averted with some form
of physical exercise. Sports,
a gym membership or lessstrenuous pastimes such as
yoga will provide an outlet and
help you relax.
CAPRICORN
(Dec.
22-Jan. 19) -- If someone
disagrees with your opinion,
dont take it personally. Letting
your emotions dictate your
actions will cost you spiritually,
physically and financially if
you arent careful.

US Ebola patient dies;
airport screening expanded
CONNIE CASS
Associated Press
WASHINGTON The first person diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S.
died Wednesday despite intense but
delayed treatment, and the government
announced it was expanding airport
examinations to guard against the spread
of the deadly disease.
The checks will include taking the
temperatures of hundreds of travelers
arriving from West Africa at five major
American airports.
The new screenings will begin
Saturday at New Yorks JFK International
Airport and then expand to Washington
Dulles and the international airports
in Atlanta, Chicago and Newark. An
estimated 150 people per day will be
checked, using high-tech thermometers

The White House said the fever
checks would reach more than 9 of

heaviest-hit countries Liberia, Sierra
Leone and Guinea.
President Barack Obama called the
measures really just belt and suspenders to support protections already in

people who are obviously ill, as do flight
crews, and in those cases the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention is
notified.
Its unlikely a fever check would

Speaking by teleconference with
mayors and local officials, Obama said
he was confident the U.S. could prevent
an outbreak. But he warned them to be
vigilant.
As we saw in Dallas, we dont
have a lot of margin for error, Obama
said. If we dont follow protocols and
procedures that are put in place, then
were putting folks in our communities
at risk.

More information continues to be
gathered for a new message board the
trustees hope to install on the library
grounds. Golden Rule Company that
just finished a comparable sign for
BUNGE North America has been added
to the list. Board President Leila Osting
brought the company into mix and Rist
received an estimate of $15,827 this
week.
BUNGE did a lot research before
they settled Golden Rule, Osting said.
They wanted someone who used parts
made in the United States and they
found that in this company.
Rist said she will fill out a grant
request from the Arnold C. Dienstberger
Foundation for a message board.
Eleven applications were received
for the two open page positions. Rist
said she has interviewed three of those
interested and has more to set.

will call for everything coming through the sewer system
to be treated.
Others allow for a sixmonth trial period to test their
technology and see if it will
be useful at the plant and suit
the citys needs. All plans call
for an upgrade to the computer
(SCADA) system that runs the
facility. The system and software is obsolete. They also
all call for remediation to the
existing trains and cassettes,
which hold the membranes.
The city infrastructure
includes a 70-percent combined storm water/wastewater
sewer system. Presently, during wet weather peak flows,
some overflow is automatically released into the creek
at the plant, which is permis-
sible by the Environmental

Protection Agency four times
a year. Delphos has exceeded
that, sometimes in one month,
with the ongoing problems
at the plant. The EPA has
issued Delphos permission to
exceed the normal limit while
researching a course of action
to correct the issues.
We are OK with the EPA
for now but they are going to
need a plan from us sooner
rather than later because there
is also the time needed to
implement it, Teman said.
Atherine said the group
will continue to gather information for alternative plans
from the manufacturers and
said he hoped to be back in
front of council in 4-6 weeks
with more.
Wed like to start a
trial period in the fall so it
includes the winter months
when we see the most wet
weather peak flows so we can
really put the system to the
test, Atherine said.
Teman agreed.
Id like to get something
